order 10 exc out the miserable remnant OF
their funds and enable her to live near him
and to have as large an amount as possible
with which to defend him at his forthcOm-
ing trial for murder. All through the sum-
mer she has been in the city while her hus-
band has paced back and forth behind the
bars in the county jail. She
has visited him almost daily, carry
ing in her arms their thirteen
months old daughter to be handled on its
papa's knee. Finally she was too weak to
carry the baby and had to go alone, and
the last time she went to the jail her hus-
band saw her reel and nearly fall as she
left him. and he realized that her life was
being given to make his troubles lighter.
She was taken to the hospital and as often
as the physicians would allow
it amid her irrational raw
ings. her husband was taken to see her
by the officers. At his last visit lady
friend stood near her and asked her il she
recognized him. As if by a superhuman
effort she grasped her reason and answered:
''Oh, yes" AS her husband bent over her
two slender arms encircled his neck
and she repeated, innocent. innocent,
innocent" a verdict which both
believed would be returned by the jury at
his trial. She was but 81 years of age.

procuring of land for the enlargement OF
the custom house building. \ bill passed

the enlargement of the building either on
the WabaSha or Fifth street side. The
plan of the department is 10 send one OF

did not meet with much success
Yesterday. Mrs. Hall, who OWNS the prop

CITY. On the Wabasha street side the hrSt
22ls half feet is owned by Mic PottgIeser,
who does not want to sell it. The next

The pauper expense of Ramsey county
is lower this year than it has been for
the last six years. Two years ago it was
2919 cents per inhabitant three years ago
it was 31.9 cents. Hennepin has not
fuctuated much during three years. 1t is
quite remarkable, in consideration of the
fact that the methods keeping paupers
are So different and the details in the
itemized reports in each county so much at
variance. that the result as to the tax per
individual should have been almost the
same for years.
