Anne Ward Tiffany, in her new play,
"The Stepdaughter,' drew out fair house
at the Grard last night. Miss Tiffany's play
is neither better nor worse than the average
play written TO fit particular stage. 1t Is
designed to bring oil her strong points, ard
il does it satisfactorily. Miss Tiffany is well
known to theGter-goers as an exponent of
Irish characters. She has usually had TO do
almost together with comedy. but in this play
there is mixture of mole serious business
allotted to her, although the comedy is kept
well 10 the front; She has an excellent lent Irish
man or woman, particularly in woman. She
acts with good judgment. Her company is
fully capable of carrying the work allotted
10 the several members.
Notwithstanding the inelement weather of
last evening large sized audience found its
way to the Bijou The thrilling features of
n he Police Patrol" assisted by the comedy
in the piece, have made for the play very
good impression.

refused fatty. OH the advice of his at
tOrnevs. In reply to Mr.. Than he said
he had no fault to find with the papers,
but his attorneys advised him to retain
the office. Mr.. Lawrence spoke for him
and said that Mr.. Peterson declined
TO give up the office be-
cause the governor had acted without
authority in removing him. Neither
had he anything to say against the reg
ularty of the papers. lie objected to
the governors uSurpatlon or power in
removing Mr.. Peterson. The party then
returned to the county commissioners
and reported Mr.. Petersons refusal.
There was nothing more to do until the

board listened to the reading Of some
correspondence that had passed between
County Attorney Than and the attorney
general on this matter, and adjourned.
In the afternoon they went ovzr to con-
suit with the attorney general. He will

a resolution lnstructing the county de-
positories that they must pay no checks
signed by Peterson. The banks are

TIM STILL SMILES.

He Knows Nothing About the As
sessing of Officeholders.
Tim Byrnes is in trouble again-that
is. some people intimate that he is. Blu
Tim keeps right on smiling, and never
admits anything. A dispatch from
Washington connects Byrnes' name
with the investigation being made into
the attempts to extort money from fed
eral officeholders to pay Republican
campaign expenses. The dispatch says:
"Byrnes was national organizer of league
organization, among other things tariff de
batting clubs, composed OF ohcehoidersln the
natlonal government, and under the guise of
q national fee and dues the officeh0lders were
assessed various sums from So for initiation
fees to ST for monthly dues. Last fall Byrnes
was more or less in Washington, and it was
then suggested that he was arranging for
contributions from officeholders. but this he
strongly denied. But it is observed in the
st. Louis case that all the odium OF the bust
ness is thrown upon him. and that even
Chauncey l. Filley. member OF the NATIONAL
committee. indicates that Byrnes cIaimaf.to
be acting on the authority of the president
and secretary of the treasury. Just what
authority Byrnes had to collect money for
league or for the national committee is not
vet shown and cannot be shown until Mr..
Clarkson shall have his say. But every man
who had ANYTHING to do with the orgahlza-
ton of these tariff clubs of otficenolders says
that Byrnes claimed the scheme h I'd the APP
pIoval of Mr.. Garrison ana other members OF
the national committee. -
Mr.. Byrnes said yesterday: =
That's interesting reading to me, but the
trouble is there isn't good Foundation for
the story. There isn't anything in it. The
federal office holders, as far as l know, wera
never organized into clubs for the purpose
stated or any other purpose Office holders
Joined the league clubs the same as any other

we're levyirg assessments. The matter died
down, and hadn't heard a word about it
since"
He says further that the league has
never made any assessments, and has
not received one centof money that was
not voluntarily subscribed. Further
more. no one believes that it Is wrong
for federal Office holders to contribute
to campaign funds. lie says he is still
in politics, and still on the national

ADDITIONAL TESTIMONY
Adduced in the Bristol Whitiock
Haheas COrDus Case.

HaDeaS Corpus case.
WINoNA, April 4.-Tne BrstolWhit-
lock habeas corpus case which is on
trial before Judge Start, has attracted
more than usual interest, especially
from the prominence in the commu-
nifty of }. Nj. Whitlock, the plaintiff in
the case. This action is brought TO re-
cover the possession of child. j. M.
Whitlock married A. e. BristOPs daugh-
ter, who died, ard he subsequently
married. BY his first wife they had
two children. One of them has been
the Bristols. Mr.. Whitlock now wants
possession and custody of the other,
which is denied by the Bristols
in saucy language and an array
of legal talent. The evidence
pro and con is sustained. Mr.. Whitlock
, is we'll known as business man, and
and his present wife was raised here,
being a daughter of +. Kratz, one or
Winona's prominent contractors. Some
of the evidence in this case is interest
| ing, and borders on SenSatl0nallsm.
| The Bristois say the little girl belonged
to their daughter, and they believe Mrs.
! Whitlock No. to be incapable of car
/ ing for it, and also charge that Mrs.
| Whitlock neglected one of her own OIL
spring, going TO town when the child
needed her care and attention, and
that subsequently the child died.
All of these charges against
Mr.. Witlock's family are extremely
sensational, as the family stands high
socially and are esteemed by every one
] except the BriStols. On the other
! hand it is rumored that the treatment
/ which the little five-year-old girl re-
! ceives is inhuman and altogether i'm
proper-such as witnessing her grand
| father threaten to cut his stepson's
| throat, or threaten TO shoot another
man with a revolver. Much other SEN
satioual testimony has been presented
| by both sides to the case. Judge Start
! has the matter under advisement now.
Mr.. Whitlock has asked for the custody
of his little girl several times before,
! but to no avail, and this time he
puts the stern law to test, whether a
father can claim his lawful children.
