Quired them, without previous notice

amounts of funds in the treasury,

speech that he was at the disposal of
the governor. and forthwith the assist
ant treasurer, Sam Iverson, and Chief
Clerk Jensen locked and bolted the
doors of the Office, making prisoners of

GLOBE representative. The vault doors

NEW TRIAL NECESSARY
In Order to Straighten Out Mixed
Accounts.

ACCOunUSs
Judge Brill has granted the motion
for new trial in the cause of AleXan-
der P. Brown against William Alexan-
der Brown ct al. In memorandum
the court says that the former finding
of the court to the effect that the plain
tiff should have forty of the lots
into which the farm of sixty
five acres was divided is not
strictly accurate The evidence showed
that but twenty-five acres of this had
been divided into lots. By the provision
OF the agreement the plaintiff was to
have fifteen lots of this twenty-five acres
and when the other forty acres were
divided into lots he was to have twenty
five lots. 1t is claimed that the agree
ment to convey the plaintiff forty lots
was conditioned upon his making a
satisfactory account and to divide the.
sixty-tive acres into lots. He kept his
accounts somewhat carelessly and it is
difficult upon the evidence in the case
to state the account with satisfaction.
1t is shown that the plaintiff mingled
the trust funds of the estate with his
own and such course would render him
liable for interest. This matter was over
looked when tine findings were made.
The result of the accounting interest
is charged--will be materially different
from the result indicated by the find
ings. 1t is apparent that justice will be
done by granting new trial.

TALKED TO BY TANNER.
The Corporal Draws Vivid Pict-
ures of War Scenes.

Corporal James Tanner, eX-United
States pension commissioner, last even
ing lectured under the auspices of the
G. A. r. posts of st. Paul, before large
audience at Turner hall. The subject
chosen by the lecturer was "Soldier
Life, Grave and Gay" and though the
corporal was suffering from severe
hoarseness he. for two hours, delighted
his audience by the recital of the vari-
Gus scenes through which the wearers
of the blue went during the War Of the
Rebellion. The lecture was in no way a
history of the war, but dealt with vivid
description of battle fields and all their
horrors, the incidents OF camp life and
the march, the awful realism of wounds
and the hospital. the terrOrs of the
Southern prison. 1t was all the more
interesting because the various scenes
had been gone through, not alone by
the lecturer, but also by many OF those
present.
In concluding his lecture the corporal
paid an eloquent tribute to the memory
of Gen. Sherman. " hose personal friend
ship he had long enjoyed, and related
many stories in which the character
istics OF the general had figured.

A DRAMATIC TRIUMPH.
Margaret Mather's Powerful Por-
Jrayal of Joan OF Arc.

Jrayal of Joan of Arc.
The Margaret Mather whom an adj
miring public has seen and known as
the love sick Juliet alone, is quite differ
ent from the inspired and enthusiastic
Margaret Mather as Joan of Arc. The
large audience at the Metropolitan last
night was scarcely prepared either for
the decided improvement in the winning
young star or the magnificent settings
and effects with which the masterpiece
was produced. The action of the play
of Joan of Arc" may be briefly told as
follows: When the first curtain rises
Joan is discovered seated at a spinning
wheel and looking upward with rapt
expression, supposed to be seeing
angels. Then numerous company of
homeless peasants arrives, singing, not
WithStanding miscellaneous Wretehed-
ness. Soon an English ruffian appears
drawing his sword upon women, and
faithfully conveying a Frenchman'S
idea of an English soldier. Joan defeats
this warrior and subsequently repelS,
with obvious reluctance, the advances
Of Thibault. young peasant, by whom
she is hopelessly beloved. Then she
hears the vocaliSm of angels. a little
later, when clad in complete armor, she
fascinates tho mistress Of King Charles
VII, and then inspires that noble him
self to take the field. Another picture
shows the failure of an intrigue to
thwart her patriotic and bellicose pur-
pose, and closes with a preSentment OF
her victorious battle. The coronation
ensues, and after that the betrayal of
the maid, her SteadfaSt self-devotion
ending in death. The incident believed
to be historic Of Joan's recognition of
the king when he was disguised IS em-
ployed with skill and made tributary to
q good dramatic effect.
The character of Joan is naturally diff
ficult of portrayal. The change from
the simple shepherd girl with no am
btion but peasants love to the in
spired and accepted instrument of di-
vine power calls In its expression for a
great dramatic strength which it was
not known Miss Mather possessed. Her
power seemed to increase act by act
until it reached its elimination in the
death by the faggot. The only criticism
is in her voice, which lacks the strength
TO suit the part. The play itself is
strong. The story of Joan of Are" is
rich in situation. and when embellished
for dramatic effect is impressive and
fascinating. Miss Matlier has sur
rounded herself with strong company,
and her great undertaking is a success.

Gals then set to work counting each
bundle of bonds. careful tab being kept
of the amounts by the governors chief
clerk. the gentle Angel, who eyed the

pied an hour, when the precious docu-
mentS were once more placed in the flre
