PROFESSIONAL COURTESY.
Coroner Quinn Gives His Version
of a Sensation.

Coroner Quinn Gives His Version
of Sensation.
"It is to be regretted" said DR.. Quinn
last evening, THAT so much valuable
space was devoted by one of the morn
ing papers to a matter which upon its
face revealed the ingenuity of spite
full and jealous individual who had been
given the mitten by, woman. Not
speaking of the personal reflection of
the matter, but regarding the insinua-
tions as to the abuse of professional
privileges by DR.. Hewitt and myself, |
will say that DIR. Hewitt, who attended
Mrs. Jernison, is reliable in every way.
Upon the written explanation of the
matter which | filed with my certificate
for public investigation, and from what
saw the day after the woman's death,
| was fully satisfied as to how Mrs.
Jernison came TO her death, and rend-
cred my certificate accordingly. l
promised DR.. johnson, as mere official
courtesy, that l would keep the mat
ter from the public as nearly as
was compatible with the lawful
course of my proceedings in
cases Of the kind. could do no more,
nor could do much less. 1t was not an
official duty imposed upon me to give
the story told by DR.. johnson the day
the autopsy was held to the public or
to the press. Mrs. Jernison was buried
l filed my certificate, and nothing more
was heard of the matter until agitated
by one who | should judge was after
revenge. The implications limited at
concerning those who had charge of the
case--Drs. Hewitt. O'Brien and my
self-are wholly without grounds, and
are the malevolent fabrications OF some
one who Wanted to direct public
opinion toward public trust"
A DISAPPOINTED sUITOR.
against DR.. Johnson, realizes that alto
ing it, and wants the matter
dropped. He claims to have been
enamored of the young lady, Miss
Haug. and especially requested that her
name should be kept out of the case.
He only desired to relieve her of the
influences of DR.. .JohnSon's company.
and wanted her to leave his house
and go to her home near Shako-
pee. To do this he employed
George Walsh, whom he Instructed to
call on Dr.. johnson and inform him as
to his wishes concerning the servant
| girl, to whom he claimed he was be-
| trothed. MI. Walsh wrote Dr.. johnson
a letter requesting him to call at his
| office. DR.. johnson responded, and
learned that unless he at once released
Miss Haug Clancy would lift the veil
that shielded the doctor from the clucheS
| of the law, and would publish matters
not very edifying to his character. DR..
johnson. after listening to these threats,
informed Mr.. Walsh that Miss Haug
1,,ac cioly in hnd hut that she yynuld he
| at liberty to go or stay, just as she
| pleased, upon her recovery. After this
meeting Walsh called upon DR.. john
son seven or eight times day and kept
| up the case in Clancy's behalf.
The matter will be dropped" as Mr..
| Clancy expresses it. if he can learn the
| whereabouts of his fancee and can win
her back. But if the doctor persists in
meddling with his happiness he will
| apply to the courts for thorough in
vestigation of the Jernison suicide.

Modern progress and the spirit of i'm
provement everywhere observable is no
respector of old landmarks, no matter
what their associations may be, and
this is especially true Of work of de-
molition progressing near the Assump-
ton, Catholic church.
In 1856 a number Of German Catholics
devoted themselves to the construction
of a house of worship on Exchange
street, between st. Peter and West
Ninth streets. the parish priest being
Father Keller. Through the instru-
mentality of Capt. Manner, Messrs.
Keller, Lunkheimer, Ebert, K. Ayd,
Frank Schlick. M. Koch and gorge
MitSch the structure was completed and
occupied by the congregation until 1874.
when the present stately and imposing
specimen of church architecture, with
its double towers, was reared heaven
ward. The cornerstone of the old
church was donated by Capt. Manner:
George Mitseh fashioned the cross, and
the bell which summoned the faithful
to mass was presented 10y K. Ayd. Sut,-
sequently the bell was removed to
one of the towers of the
new church, and sounds as
sweetly as it did in days of yore.
When the Benedietine monks established
themselves at st. Joseph in 1857 the old
church was turned over to them and
has since been under their control,
Father Dematurs being placed in charge.
Finally the congregation became too
large for the little gray stone edifi ce
and 1t was determined to build large +
one. The year 1874 witnessed the dedi-
cation of the new church, the
towers of which are beacons for
miles around, and nearly 100000
was expended in its construction.
Within the past decade two new
school houses costing $4,000 have
nestled under the protecting wings Of
Assumption church. and still there is a
demand for more room in the interests
of this parish. So without further ado,
and despite its memorable past. the
little church is to be razed, and a
younger generation will probably learn
their alphabetS upon the site where
pious monks formerly chanted the i'm
pressiye service of their church.
