municipal court is just as binding upon
witness as one issued by the district court.
Failure to obey the summons IN elther case
is punishable at the discretion OF the 1uuge.
Certainly q mans time is inst as valuable 10
him when in tendance at the municipal
court as II is when i'll attendance at the dis
trIct court. Unfortunately n large majority
of the witnesses who are apparently entitled
TO the fees under the taW when summoned
in criminal eases before The municipal
court are poor and cannot atfUrd
the luxury of a lawsuit 10 recover
SLIP. While this amount is insignificant In
itself it may mean in some cases prlvallonS
TO some of the people who are compelled 10
lose their time, which 10 them means the
necessarieS of life. i'll order that justice may
be done Ii has been minated that III case
the judges of the municipal court should de-
eide that the witnesses are entitled to the
same fees paid 10 witnesses in the dlstilct
court, the young gentlemen who assist the
city attorney will carry the case to the SUI
preme court. This would mean an eXpendl-
turG of more money than would be war
ranted by the amount at stake, and Whlie
il may only be intended as bluff II is likely
TO deter some from pushing their claims. AS
the matter now sands the law is apparently
upon one side and the precedent on the
other AS matter of principle the question
should be settled. Judges Emery ana Ma
honey both have the confidence OF the com
IL
and either one of them is perfectly cOmpe-
tent to rule on the question. The people
would be perfectly satisfied with their dc
ciSion without appealing to the supreme
court.

1t is amusing to watch the visitors at the
public library as they file into the rooms OF
the horticultural society. About the first
thing that draws their attention is the NAM
moth WhoOping crane that stands in its glass
case near the door. 1t has been elegantly
mounted, and shows splendid piece OF the
taXademmist's art 1t has few curly Wnlte
feathers for a tail, and II is probably that
fact which leads the knowing ones to eX-
plain 10 their friends i'll stage Whisper thaC
il is an ostrich from the great desert OF Sa-
hara. In reality, it was captured Ill the WIGS
of Northern Dakota, and never troa the
burning sands of the great African sea.
The wild pigeon which was at one time so
plentiful in Minnesota has become such
rarity that numbers of the visitors at the
library wonder what kind of bird that
beautiful little one is with the ashes,of-roses
breast, and the glitter of moi en- gold about
It's neck In the language of Rip Van Wrinkle,
"How soon we are forgotten when we're
gone'' Lovers of the feathered tribe miss
the bright colors of Minnesota's most be4uti-
full winged biped vulgarly termed the Vel
lowhammer in the collection.
There is one thing that may be said in re-
