LATE MINNEAPOLIS ITEMS.
Especial Telegram to the Globe. |

M1NNEAPoI1s, Dec. 9.-At late hour
last evening Judge Ueland completed his
decision in the matter of the proposed city
of Minnehaha and submitted it tc the
morning papers for publication. The de-
cision denies the petition on the ground
tat the population has increased since the
petition was circulated until, as the testi-
mony has shown, there are at present i'll
the territory between 500 and 1000 voters.
The petition contains but 543 signatures,
some twenty Of which were written by par
ties other than the owners thereof while
the law expressly requires that petition
shall be signed by the petitioners n their
own handwriting or by the marks of
those unable to write. Strik-
ins- of these twenty names would
leave only 523 signatures and
it further appears that many of the sign
ers have moved out of the district since
the circulation of the paper, and have
ceased to be voters there. large number
Of the signatures have not been identified
as legal voters, and no proofs shown that
they were such. All of these causes COM
bined have brought the number of actual
legal petitioners far below the two-thirds
of all the legal voters of the district as re-
quired by law.
Judge Ueland's points were al well
founded, and the matter is generally con-
sidered to have received its death blow.

story was strongly denounced by the Sher-
whites, and characterized by Mr.. Sherwin
as an untruth. Notwithstanding this
Interested persons browsed around among
the records of the county seat, and so sus-
Plcloss were the surface surroundings that
the anti -Sherwin papers charged the ex-
clerk and congressman with defalcation.
The charges, to large extent, prevented

ployed two expert accountants, and an ex-

etc. Mr.. Sherwin accounted for but 1854
of this amount, claiming that this was the
sum total paid over to him by the treas
urer, and that the latter official was respon-
sible for the 1927 deficit. The treasurer
at the time was Mr.. Henry c. Paddock
cashier of the Union National bank of Au-
rora for number of years, and until his
death, which occurred couple of years ago.
MIR. Paddock was always looked upon as
the soul OF honor and integrity. Ii the
absence Of positive evidence to establish
this fact, the board was compelled to take
Mr.. Sherwin's statement, together
with the many accompanying it and drop
the matter as far as he was concerned.
There were no further Developments in the
case until Monday morning last, when AS

sa a Truly HAPPY HOME Some
homes are full of love and sunshine
for strangers, and all ugliness and
gloom for the one for whom they ex-
ist. To constitute happy home,
there should be pretty little adorn-
ments on the part of the wife, who
hereby shows a desire to please her
husband, and to add to the general
attraction of her home. A pleasant
word on her part, when the over
worked man comes home, often eats
away the raw edge ofsome trouble
on his mind, and draws out corres-
ponding desire to be both agreeable
and respectful, which characteristics
are always accompanied by affection.

Each Pennsylvanian.

Each one fell to rise no more;

Sleep the sleep of death in gore.

Blazed the awful iron hail;
None could stand such livid lightning;
None could stop the storming gale.

Life and hope reyives again;
All is due to Keenan's troopers
Those three hundred cavalrymen.
Oh, how well they did their duty
On that bloody battlefield
Fell, that Freedoms Cause;might triumph;
Died to make the traitor yield.
With such men as these, my country,
Freedoms banner cannot die;
But will ever live and flourish,
