suspended one of the most successful
school teachers just because she prayed
for the death Of her husband. II her
husband was anything like the hus-

we know she was justiiiable in praying
for his death, and more deserving oil

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.

They Transact Considerable Bust
ness atTheir Regular Nee ting.
The county commissioners held their
regular meeting yesterday morning.
They desired to have survey and plat
made of the Minnetonka Mill company's
property Immediately. That is to be
condemned to maintain the proper stage
of water in the lake. The contract for
grading Cedar avenue was awarded to
j. G. McCaul at 1019 cents per cubic
yard.
j. II. Helm was granted a license to
sell liquors at Bass Lake hotel for the
next year for $500. The license petit
tons of w. W. Wait and S. NJ. Aspin-
wall. to sell liquor at Minnetonka, were
technically defective, and action was
deferred. 1t was decided to deposit
$4,000 of the county's funds in the
Washington bank. Various improve
ments we're ordered for the poor firm,
and a number of taxes abated for resi-
dents. The public school tax for 1891
was ordered on all taxable property in
the county at One-tenth of mill. The
ferry at the "Narrows," Lake Mime
tOnka. carried over, during June, LOGO
teams, and on July and 8, 3l2. These
figures are for the benefit of the next
legislature. The abstract book matter
was not touched upon.

The Damage Suit Against Drs.
Hall & Leonard Again BObs Up.
Judge Smith filed a decision yester-
day in the case of A. B. Newman, as
administrator of the estate of Eliza Nc
Kay, VS.. DrS. Leonard q Hall. 1t will
be remembered that Mrs. Mckay died
while under the effects of an an3sthetic
and during the performance of surgi-
cal operation. 1t was alleged that death
resulted from malpractice, and action
was brought for $4,000 damages. AT
the first trial last winter the jury dis
agreed, and at the second trial, few
weeks ago. verdict was returned in
the sum of S375 in favor of the plaintiff.
In his decision yesterday Judge
Smith grants the motion for new trial
unless the plaintiff shall file a stipula-
ton with the clerk of the court within
thirty days, stating that he will take
Judgment against, the defendant for 81
damages. The motion of the defend
ant also asked to have the verdict set
aside. Attached to the order is the fol-
lowing memorandum by Judge Smith:

TO BEGIN ACTIVE WORK.
The Board of Corrections and
Charities Will Meet To-Day.


The new board of corrections and
charities will meet this morning and will
assume active control of the various de-
partments intrusted to its care by act
of the last legislature. One Of the first
and most important matters to coma mp
for consideration will be the selection
of a city hospital site. The site on the
university campus, which has already
met with the hearty approval of the
city council, is favOrably regarded, but
objections to it have been advanced and
it is now stated that the law presents
certain drawbacks. The city charter pro-
vides for the requirement by the city
ground for public buildings, streets
and other public uses, but makes no
provision whatever for lease.
Then the law creating the board of
regents of the university and defining
their duties and powers specifically
states that the board is simply custo-
dian of the property and shall not have
power to dispose of it. 1t is claimed
that these two laws cannot be reconciled
and that therefore special act Of the
legislature will be necessary before this
site can be used. Mayor Winston said
yesterday upon this question:
''The board has not yet discussed or
COHSlQCLC0 llflS tl4NOllOAls AlANAf VI NOAAoNs
it is impossible at this time to say what
action will be taken. As far as l am
concerned, however. shall not favor
the site unless the city can have full
control of the building and its manage
ment."
The comptroller will to-day present
the board with full statement of the
funds at its command, and the money
will at once pass from the control of the
council and be placed to the credit of
the board.
At to-day's meeting the city attorney
will be called in for consultation and
for the purpose of interpreting the act
and passing upon several points which
are so expressed as to be rather vague.
The act, it is said, is very carelessly
drawn, and contains many imperfections
which. while they appear small, might
bring about serious complications II
legal test were applied. For example,
three different titles arc applied to the
board itself in different parts of the act.
Another point is the salary of the super
intendent, which in the original draft of
the law was $1,000, and which appears
in the act as signed by the governor as
5000. This latter defect, however, has
been remedied by the board electing
the superintendent of the poor as its
secretary, and making his salary for
that g. 600. or 81 600 in all.

REMINIsCENOE OF KEENE.
@. b. Tirrell Has a Letter for the
Man Who Stole $13O.OOO in
MINNEAPOLIS.

@. b. Tirrell Has a Letter for the
Man Who Stole $13O,OOO in
Minneapolis.
A letter was received by the clerk of
the court yesterday which recalls to
mind case which, at the time, created
profound sensation. not only in Min
neapolis, but throughout the state. In
1877 and for some years before William
w. Keene was cashier of the North
western National bank. One morning
the directors awOke to the astonishing
fact that 100000 in good and lawful
American money had, in some mysteri-
Gus manner, disappeared. A little later
they learned with almost equal aston
iShment that their trusted cashier was
also gone. The natural Inference was
that the coin and cashier had gone to-
gether. Active steps we're taken to
capture the latter and recover the
former. 1t was only partially success
full, however. Cashier Keene was cap
tured, brought back, tried, convicted
and in 1879 sentenced to the penitentiary
for seven years. Not the color of even
one cent was ever seen again by the
bank.
Keene took the stand and swore that
every penny of the money had been
lost in gambling on grain. A short time
after he was sentenced, however, cal
ciominer stated TO a number of persons
that he was working i'll the building.
and from the top of ladder he
looked through a tranSOm and saw
Keene putting large bundle of bank
notes, gold, etc.. into a satchel which he
carried away with bin. This evidence
did not come out at the trial.
flor cGrVinn ohnTlf fnnT X
was pardoned through the influence of
friends and OH account of his exemplary
conduct. After being released from
Saltwater Keene disappeared. and Min
neapOliS knew him no more. Vague ru-
morS have been circulated about him
from time TO time, however. The most
reliable was told by person who knew
him Intimately while he was trusted
and honored in Minneapolis. 1t was
to the effect that he recognized and
spoke to Keene in a small but
beautiful retired village in Pennsyl-
vania. Keene was leading life of rest
and comfort, surrounded by all the lux
uries that life could ask for, evidently
purchased by the money he had embeZ-
Zled from the bank, as he was not known
to have any resources of his own. Moth
ing has been heard from him for the
past few years.
Now comes R. L. Chase, OF Boutwell,,
Washington, who, it is thought, was at
one time a resident of Minneapolis, with
a reminder of Keene. In his letter to
the county clerk he encloses another
addressed to William w. Keene.
ana asks the clerk to forward
it to him. The letter, which is
very brief states that Keene was a
notary public in this city in 1877, which
hi
No reference, however, is made to his
embeZZlIng funds from the bank. No
trace of him can at present be found,
nor is his present whereabouts known.
The letter will probably'be returned to
the writer. Keene no doubt has long
since decided that $780, 600 is very good
pay for four years in the ''pen." and
will not fall over himself in looking up
old Minneapolis friends.

city, his mind complete wreck. For

he has been acting in strange way, but
no particular attention was paid to it.
He went to Duluth with the
Shaw opera company, and made
himself conspicuous by applaud
ing Miss Hilda Thomas whenever
she appeared on the stage. He came to
Minneapolis last Thursday, but re-
turned to Duluth the next day. Sunday
evening while Miss Thomas was pack

her room door. dropped on his knees
before the young lady, and commenced
praying, but almost Immediately went
into commissions. Help was summoned,
and he was brought back with the COM
pany, raving like maniac. He was
taken to the NicOllet house, but at
tempted to throw himself from the third
story window. Overwork is supposed
to be the cause of his breakdown.
