A PRISON SCENE.
A. Shoplifter Locked Up-Faints
on Meeting Her Dauphter.

Mrs. Stein, Jewess. was detected by
clerk in Olson's dry goods store in the
act OF stealing. small articles of value.
She was taken to the central station and
locked up. 1t is alleged the woman has
been caught on more than one occasions
shoplitting. Officer Peter Fox and the
matron of the central station visited thef
home of the prisoner and found there,
her daughter, Lena, aged some
twelve years. The child was afraid
to remain alone in her mothers
apartments, and as the parties who
occupied the lower story of the house
refused to care for her or to allow her
to share their rooms for the night. the
matrOn returned with her to the station.
When Lena met her mother the latter
Immediately tainted. She grew rigid
and her face took on the pallor of death.
The child's sObs and EXPLANATIONS of
grief as she implored her mother to
awaken and return to consciousness
were pitiful. Restoratives were quickly
applied but without avail. The woman
was in dead faint.
Lieut.. KOsgriu deemed 1t best, at the
suggestion of the matron, to send for
DIR. MatcheD, the police surgeon. When
he arrived the doctor pronounced the
WOIHdn IOdllN Ill lIOul ucIVOuS pTOSIEd-
ton. Her pulse was beating at the rate
OF $50 per minute, and the doctor was
not altogether pleased with other symp-
toms of bad health. He ordered the
prisoner taken to the city hospital, and
the Shoplifter, accompanied by her
daughter Lena and the matron, was
driven there in the patrol wagon. Lena
will be cared for during her mothers

STRANGE DISAPPEARANCE.
The Gases of Old Man Fitzgerald
and Pretty Emma SamueIs,

The Gases of Old Man Fitzgerald
and Pretty Emma SamueIs.
Mysterious disappearance have be-
come of frequent occurrence of late.
Almost every day the police authorities
are notified of the unaccountable, for
the time being, absence of an Grant
father, wife or child. In the majority
of cases the lost are found by some Wig
liant shepherd of Supt. Brackets force,
and the absentee returned to anxious
friends. Occasionally, however, mex
plicable disappearances remain mys-
terieS-at least for some length of time.
The case of old man Fitzgerald. who
left his home during the latter part of
October, and of whom, since that time.
nothing has been heard, is one of the
latter nature, and the case of Emma
Samuels is another.
Emma lived with her father at SIAM
ford. in Isanti county. She was an at
tendant at the village school until she
formed dislike for the teacher of that
institution. Her father desired her to
continue her studies, and the girl pro
tested. Finally one morning she diSap-
peared. That night she was the guest
of farmer residing some distance from
Emma's home, whom she told she pur-
posed going to Anoka in search of en-
plOyment. Failing there, Emma said.
she would go to Minneapolis OH the
same errand. Since leaving the house
of her friends nothing has been heard
of the missing girl. A search has been
thoroughly prosecuted, to no purpose,
and what has become of the girl re,
mains an unsolved problem. If she
came to Minneapolis it is possible she
may have fallen into the hands of
mercenary and heartless persons, who
prey upon the weakness and credulity
of unprotected girls. Emma was about
thirteen Years old.

A HEAVY SENTENCE.
James LIE Due Will Serve Four
Years and q Half In saltwater.

James LIE Due, whose trial has occu-
pied the past few days in the criminal
court. was brought before Judge Loeb
Fen yesterday morning to receive the
consequences of his act, in the shape of
sentence. His attorney made short
plea for light sentence, stating that
the man was old and had family, the
youngest of which was child of but
live months of age. Judge LOchren was
unusually short in the matter. He
spoke of the great menace to society
that men OF his stamp were. and further
said that the public should be so pro-
,tected that females could walk the
streets in the evening without being
subject to such assaults. He said that
there appeared TO be no excuse for the
act except the fact that he might have
been drunk. yet for no apparent reason
the jury had recommended him to
mercy.
The penalty in such cases had been
Justly made heavy, the maximum for a
successful attempt being thirty years.
For an unsuccessful effort the heaviest
penalty that could be placed was half
that term. He finished by sentencing
the man to four years and six months at
hard labor in Saltwater. LIE Due was
sworn. but he appeared to be SO deaf
that con verSatiOn was hurculean task.
He said that he had no regular trade,
and appeared little affected. When the
deputy took him back to prison he
smiled and said, ''back there again?''

Namara's Assailant.

Namara's Assailant.
Andrew Cummings told his story of
the assault upon Officer Mcnamara yes
terday in the criminal court. He stated
that he had gone into the alley for
natural purposes, and that when the Of
ficer came to him he didn't know that
he was an officer. He didn't accOst him,
or speak at all, in any way, and, as he
wore a rubber coat, he didn't see any
uniform. The alley was dark, and, as
he had SOS on him. he thought he was
about tn be robbed. He reached for his
knife, made slash, and ran, yelling as
be did so. He then ran out of the alley
and saw two more men, to whom. he
claimed, he ran for assistance. They
turned out to be officers, and he gave
them the knife and stopped.
He claimed to have defect in his
eyesight, being only able to see directly
in front of him. DIR. Spratt testified
that he had examined his eyes, and
presented charts to show how the mans
vision was defective, and he could only
see directly in front of him, the side
lines of his vision being totally gone.
Several laboring men, who had known
him for years, testified to his having a
good reputation. He admitted to having
been down on First street, but said he
was not drunk. The case went to the
jury after brief address by Mr.. Nye
and little longer one by the mans at
torney. After being out but short
time the jury returned verdict of not
guilty.

HE SEEKS "vINDICATION,"
And His Republican Friends Sly
ly Snap at His Heels.

An evening paper last night pub
lished about third of column of
reading matter devoted to the desire Of
n. I'll. Gjertsen to succeed himself as
police commissioner after the 1st of
way, the cause of MIR. GjertSen. The
well-fed grocer is said to desire reap
pointment as vindication more than
anything else. He sees his brother Re-
publicans doing what they can to win
dictate" other OfficehOlders who need
vindication, and, naturally, he de-
sires small slice of the same.
He is well satisfied that the police COM
mission will he abolished ere long, but
for that he cares not. So much has
been said about him and the commits
sion that he wants vindicatiOn and vim
dication alone. even for two weeks.
This able exposition of Mr.. Gjertsen's
wishes and claims also deals with the
question of the adjustment of the COM
mission and seeks to show that the
cal as it may seem, is not near. On
this point the following paragraph
bears:
even the matter of the abolition of
the police commission is not considered
as fOregone conclusion by all the Re-
publican leaders of Hennepin county.
John GoOdnow said to-day in a CONVEX
SatiOn that he still believed in the police
commission. All we need is good
men, he said, and that system is the
best. If we have poor men or bad men
no system will prove satisfactory. That
is the way the matter stands and l shall
still stick to the police commission"
"Out of their own mouths do they
stand convicted" Mr.. Gjertsen must
have smiled in glee over that praise of
him. Mr.. Gjertsen seeks reappoint-
ment supposedly because he is a good
man. John GoodnOw says: "All we
need is good men tfor commissioners
and this system is the best" Every one
knows that the police commission has
been an unmitigated failure. Has it
been because good men were not APP
pointed? If Mr.. Gjertsen really wants
to be vindicated he should induce Mr..
Goodnow and others, who would speak
in the same strain, to maintain ''digni-
fed silence" in the presence of news
paper interviewers.

MATT WALSH FOR SPEAKER,
The Hennepin Delegation Will
Present His Name to the House.


"Your presence is desired at meet
ing of the representatives-elec of Hen
nepin county. to be held Thursday even
ing, Dec. Is, to consider the question of
a candidate for speaker"
That was the communication adj
dressed Wednesday to the lower house
members of the Hennepin delegation.
To this call were attached the names of
W. II. Trip, s. A. Stockwell. A. B.
Dorelius, Matt Walsh, r. l.. Penney.
son. 1t was thought advisable to settle,
once for all, upon the Hennepin dele
CATIONS candidate for speaker. since it
had been decided that the delegation
would present name to the house.
There were eleven out of the fourteen
Democratic repreSentativeS-elect pres
ent, the absentees being James Hunt
ington. c. Nee. Reeve and B. f. Christ
leib. The eleven convened in regular
session, and it was decided to take an
informal ballot on candidate for
speaker. The result of the ballot
was: W. Ii. Lynn, 4: Matt Walsh,
z. AS soon as the vote was
announced, 1t was moved that the ballot
be declared formal, which was done
unanimously. Then a motion was made
Hennepin delegation observe the unit
rule. That motion was also adopted
without dissenting voice, and the po-
sition of the Hennepin delegation on
that question was determined. Matt
Walsh will be put forward as the Hen
nepin candidate for the speakership and
every member of the delegation will
vote for him. There was not the slight
est friction noticeable. There has been
much comment On the probable action
of the Hennepin delegation on this mat
ter ami different stories have been told
by different members of the delegation.
But all that is past. The result reached
last night was finality and 1t was
reached amicably.
