Joseph III. Taillefer Arrested for
Trying to Garry OF a Girl.

Yesterday short, thin, sharp-faced,
large-eyed, long haired man, giving the
name of Joseph II, Taillefer. was ar
rested Oh a charge of assault and bat
terry. His bail was placed at $50. and
his case was continued until this morn
ing.
According to the stories told, the
charge OF assault and battery does not
fully cover the case. 1t is claimed that
he attempted to kidnap little girl, Ida
Breithon by name. Ida's father is a
grocer, living at 802 Twenty second
avenue northeast. The little girl, who
is only fifteen years old, was returning
from the Prescott school shortly after 4
O'Clock Wednesday afternoon when a
man dashed up to the sidewalk in sim
gle cutter and attempted to drag her
into IT. She screamed, and other chill
dren who were with her also made an
cutlery. Mrs. A. III. Olsen heard the
cries and came to the assistance of the
child. The man was furious, but
crowd collecting. he drove away.
When arrested yesterday, Taillefer
DIG not give very clear account Of why
ne attempted to carry off the little girl.
he claimed to be in some sort of secret
service. He says that there is pot
among the girls of the Prescott school
to ill-treat a girl friend of his. The
BreithOn girl is in the plot. The people
in the neighborhOod where it all Oc-
Cured say that Taillefer has been posing
as ''Secret service" man for some time.
They regard him as crank. 1t is said
that he made similar attempt about
two weeks ago.

ST. MARKS NEW RECTOR.

nc Sd1ic I'd MEnucapOI1S TO DO
Good on Broad Church Princi-
pies.
Rev. FL. P. Nichols, the new rector of
st. Marks church, arrived i'm Minneap-
oils yesterday morning and took up his
quarters at the Victoria. Mr.. Nichols
before. No description of his personal
appearance is necessary. When seen
yesterday he had little to say about what
he should do in Minneapolis. He talks
like Singularly modest man. He en-
full of credal eXpositions. as many
ministers do when taking ho'd
Of new charge. He simply says that
he had come to Minneapolis to do
good and he hopes that he may be able
to carry out his Intentions. He says he
is not to be clasSed as either a high
churchman Or low churchman. He is
more of a broad churchman. He thinks
that the church which he represents is
broad enough and sufficiently in accord
with the hest knowledge and the great
est enlightenment to include all persons
who are seeking after true religious
truth. He is pleased with the outlook in
Minneapolis. He likes the people whom
he met here on his former visit and ne is
confident that his fellow ministers will
be brothers in the. fullest sense of the
term. That Mr.. Nichols is a broad
minded man and preacher of intelli-
gence goes without saying. For the
past eight years he has been connected
with Trinity church, of New Haven.
He had many of the students of Yale
among his congregation. That he could
satisfy them is good Endorsement.

Aid Gray Finds Couple More
Fire Department Woodchucks.
The special committee that is inyes-
tigating the fire department held an
Other little session yesterday. The
business Of the session was the pre-.
sentatlon OF two claims considered by
Aid. Gray to be irregular. These
claims had been thrown out by the COM
mittee on claims, One of them was for
an cat cleaner. This oat cleaner was
purchased in Chicago for SIS. 1t de-
veloped that Aid. Loye was agent
in Minneapolis for the same oat
cleaner. He says that he could
have sold the fire department
that same cleaner for $40, and paid the
freight on it from Chicago at that. This
claim has been before the committee
before, but all the facts in connection
with it had not been brought out. Aid.
Gray wanted to know why the fire de-
partment had spent $50 more than was
necessary. He also reported from the
committee Oh claims that a bill for
badges and figures for the uniforms of
the firemen had been disallowed by the
committee Oh claims. The articles were
bought in New York. 1t is claimed
that they might have been purchased
III Minneapolis, and for less money
than was paid for them in New York.

THAT BYRNEs CASE.
Tho Suit That Backs the Criminal
Charge on Trial,

The trial of an important civil case
began in Judge Smiths court yesterday.
1t is the case of Mary Goodrich VS.. E. S.
Corser, The d. c. Bell Investment Com
pany and Timothy E. Byrnes. The lead
ing question involved is: ibid Tim
Byrnes fraudulently alter a mort
gage satisfaction" Mrs. Goodrich is
Mr.. Byrnes' mother-in-law. Several
years ago she conveyed seventeen lots
in Evergreen addition to him to hold in
trust for her. Timothy gave his mother
in-law mortgage for $4,000 on the lots.
Later he went to her, so she says, and
represented that he could sell two of
the lots to good advantage if she
would execute mortgage satisfaction
TO release them. She thereupon
signed an instrument to release
the two lots from the mortgage
and now she claims that Tim altered
the description so as to make the instru-
ment release all the lots instead of only
two. 1t is also alleged that Mr.. Byrnes
secured loans on the property from E.
s.. Corser and the ID. &. Bell Investment
company, and that is the reason they
are made co-defendants. Mrs. Goodrich
wants the court to declare the forged
satisfaction void and reinstate the $5O,-
900 mortgage.
This is the case upon which the
forgery Indictment against Byrnes was
secured.

AFTER THE GRIPPE.
Deaths After Recovery Than Dur
Ing Hts COurse-HOyy to Avoid the
Danwar

Ing Hts COurse-HOyv to Avoid the
Danger.
Grippe, in itself, is bad enough, facilitating
enough, but it is the after effects, the slow
ness of recovery, that give it its great danger.
In most cases. the person did not have sufIi-
cient vitality to rally after the disease itself
had passed. The forces of nature were too
weak 10 contend with the debility which the
Grippe had left.
III IS sad to think bow many people have
died who might have been saved if nature
had been properly assisted and fortified after
the Grippe had been driven from the system.
Many physicians realized this fact and as
sisted their patients over the dangerous after
effects by bracing up and stimulating their
systems. This was, and can be done in but
one way, and that is by the steady and mod
crate use of some pure yet powerful stimu
liant. There is but one absolutely pure and
medicinal stimulant known to the profession
and to the public, and that is Buffy's Pure
Malt Whiskey. The most prominent scien-
lists and physicians of the land indorse It's
purity and value. 1t is not new whiskey,
If has been before the public for years. II is
not cheap decoction, but pure distillation.
1t imparts tone to the system possible in no
other manner, and sends the blood coursing
through the veins with renewed yigor. 1t is
superior III every respect and however much
any Inscriptions druggist or grocer may seek
TO lead you to believe TO the contrary, do not
be deceived.

ships got up steam, the Venezuelan 'orces

Ha Heart,

A Chester, (Eng,) juryhas just come
to a very sensible conclusion in a
breach of promise of marriage case
where the plaintiff was a young farm
er. The fair defendant, after a court
ship extending two Or Tree years,
seems to have discover IL that she
was "too good for a farmers wife,"
and then she insinuated that her lover
wished to marry her for her money.
stung by being Tilted in language such
as this, Mr.. Albert Timmis sought
that redress which is so often given to
the other sex. The judge in summing
up said he knew OF no reason why q
should not seek and be entitled
to the same redress as a woman in
these cases. He thought the young
man had acted wisely and straightfor-
wardly. The public who attended the
hearing thought that all they would
have to do was to open their mouths
and giggle; he did not see why this
should be. 1t was O serious matter
o the plaintiff, who wasted years
ove this girl, to be cast aside like an
old shoe. A sympathetic jury award
ed him ESQ damages. Apparently the
lady's promise to marry the plaintiff
vas never denied, for she had paid the
sum OF 4Os. into the court as sufficient
to console him for finding that the
woman that he had loved for years
had been trifllng with his affections.

Rear Admiral Walker to visit that country

sufficient force to protect American inter-
ests and residents. There was no intention,
he said, to interfere in any way with the
settlement OF the troubles among the Ven
ezuelans themselves, but the forces there
were to be compelled to keep hands off Of
Americans and their property. At pres
