Mr.. Grimes went to the Hennepin
bank and drew out $1,000 IN currency,
which he took back TO the room and
handed to "Sidle." There were two
piles OF money on the table, and ''Sidle"
laid the 5000 on the table with the
other money. Then Kelly spoke up.
and said to Mr.. Grimes that he was ell
titled to draw another number, and
that he had better try his luck again.
Mr.. Grimes did SO, and drew the num-

Kelly put all of the money in his
pocket and calmly announced that he

Kelly disappeared. Side" endeav-

gave him a due bill on the bank for the
$1,000.
The story was greeted with laughter
at various points. much to Mr.. Grimes
chagrin. After dinner Mr.. Worrall
tangled Mr.. Grimes all up and laid a
good foundation for an alibi. Several
unimportant witnesses were sworn. and
then Mr.. Worrall called Dr.. j. j. lay

He knew Kelly was the man who had
been in his Office that day. because he
had performed certain operation upon
him. The doctor took Kelly into a
private room. examined him and on
coming back swore most positively that
Kelly was the man upon whom he had
performed the operation. After Mr..

argument Judge Bailey discharged the

LOCAL MENTION.
A Large Reduction in Gas Bill

A Large Reduction in Gas Bills.
Gas consumers can now reduce their large
gas bills by the use of the National Auto
matte Gas Governor, which positively re-
duces bills from Is to 40 per cent. Heavy
gas bills are the inevitable result of excessive
pressure caused by the gas company. which
they cannot avoid. owing 10 the fact that
they must have a high pressure in order to
supply long distances and high elevations.
The Governor equaliZes the pressure at the
meter to fiye-tenths, whether street pressure
is ten-tenths or thirty -tenths, or whether one
or one hundred burners are lighted. The
automatic action of the Governor prevents
all blowing, wastage and bad odors from
leaking pipes, and gives a greater brilliancy.

The New York correspondent Of the
Public Ledger Of Philadelphia says this
morning:
"The New York Democrats have thus
far, there can be no question, shown the
most vim and enterprise in the campaign
just opened. This may be due to the fact
that their nominations were made first and
their organization perfected before the
Republicans, but certsinly they have ex.
h;bited unusual sagacity in getting the
attention OF the voters first, and ia inn

the Republicans can get in a word. The

The deeper we probe into the Cum
minis matter the worse it gets. We
publish TO day the third instalment Of
the shameful record and the story ia
not ended yet. Mr.. Cummins has
not yet resigned his place
rs judge Of the Munich
Pal Court and this is perhaps the
most shameless feature of his whole
transaction. 1t shows that he is utterly
insensible to public opinion and that
he has neither shame nor regret for
the wrecks that surround him.
He evidently proposes ito stare
out of c0untenance" the charges
that now confront him and trust to
the leniency Of foolish creditors on the
one hand and to political influence on
the other for the maintenance Of his
position. He has made up his mind
obviously to run the risk Of impeach-
ment by the next General Assembly
FOR the sake Of the salary Of his office,

have taken praiseworthy step.
They have done all that Council can
do, and what they have done may be
accepted as to what they would do il
they had more power. Il is a pity
that Council should not have the
authority Of impeachment in the case.
They would promptly enough vindi-
cate the honor Of the city.
Mr.. Cummins is undoubtedly yerv
much encouraged by the course OF the
other newspapers in the city. The

day declared that the charges made
by the EVENING JOURNAL ought
70 be thoroughly Investigated, 50 that
the person or persons guilty of this
crookedness should not escape the de-
served penalty. The Republican and
Morning News also venture to
say that Cummins owed it to
himself and the community to
disprove the charges brought
against him. But beyond these
three very mild suggestions the city
press has been silent. This state OF
things, looked at merely from the point
Of view OF newspaper work, leaving
sut all questions of morality and jour-
nsIistic obligation to the public, is per-
haps the most remarkable exhibition OF
newspaper cowardice or newspaper
