SHE'S ONLY A CHILD,

Piano Like a Veteran.
A little child three years and ten
months old playing the piano like
veteran was the attraction that packed
the Lyceum theater last night. The
child was assisted by some of the best
musical artists in the city, but
the child was still the attrac-
ton. The public had heard of
Baby Edwards, the little daughter of
Prof. G. w. Edwards. but last night
was the first opportunity the public
was given of seeing and hearing the lit
tie one in public concert. The little
nomenon." but she comes almost up to
that mark. al that is claimed for her
is that she has musical nature and
wonderful memory for music.
The programme opened with song
by the Imperial quartette, the most re-
Gently organized of any of the quar-
tettes of the city. 1t IS composed of
George Buckingham, tenor; Dayton
Elliott. second tenor; William FL. West,
baritone; p. j. Dunno, basso. The
quartette appeared Oh the programme
twice, and, aside from Baby Edwards,
made the hit of the concert. Gustav
Johnson contributed piano solo,
and Miss Josephine Jennings sang
Then the star of the evening appeared.
The little one played Memberships
wedding march complete, accompanied
by her father on second piano. She
played so well that it might be called
marvellous, but her succeeding number
eclipsed that. After violin solo by
Miss Beth Bragg, Miss Jennings sang
lullaby which the child had
never heard before. Her unfa-
miliarity with it did not prevent
her from playing the accompaniment
faultlessly. improvising it. Miss Bragg
played Singeley's "Fantasie Pastorale."
for violin. and the baby accompanied
her. This was complicated piece of
music III six movements, comprising PAL
measures. Baby Edwards is GER
tainly the musical wonder OF
Minneapolis. Other numbers on
the programme were piano solo by
Gustav Johnson, and solos by Miss
Mabel Otis and Miss Leona Hamilton.
Aside from the performance of Baby
Edwards, the programme, as a whole,
was one of the best of the season.

NOT AN EMBEZZLER.
Peter Willworth's Case Dismissef
by Judge MahOney.

Peter Willworth's Case Dismissed
by Judge Mahoney.
The embezzlement case of Peter VIII
worth, ex-secretary and treasurer of the
Minneapolis Blank Book company, was
finally disposed of yesterday afternoon.
it being dismissed by Judge Mahoney.
Mr.. Willworth was arrested Oh Feb. 10
on the charge Of embezzling $500 from
the company, Thomas Cunningham, the
president, making the complaint. The
case was continued from time to time
to allow for the plaintiff to bring in all
his evidence. Donaldson, the expert
accountant. testified that he had exam
ined Mr.. WillwOrth's books and found
everything in shape with the exception
of two items. S25 and $40, respectively.
These amounts Cunningham claimed
were drawn on checks that he knew
nothing of and did not receive the
money for. Mr.. Willworth did not in
troduce any evidence, but merely rest
ed his case on what Cunningham pro-
duced for the other side. When the
case was called in the municipal court
yesterday Judge Mahoney promptly
dismissed it. There was no evidence,
he said, to show that Mr.. Willworth had
been guilty of ENLIGHTENMENT or any
other irregularity. He censured Mr..
Cunningham severely for the stand he
had taken in the matter.
Mr.. Willworth is heartily glad that
the disagreeable affair is over, though
he does not propose to let the matter
drop entirely. He believes in just re-
taliation, and will have Mr.. Cunning
ham arrested for perjury in few days.

f. G. James and others for $4,000 for

Wants Insurance MONEY.

A somewhat complicated insurance
case was introduced into the district
court yesterday. John M. Sexton
brings suit against the Pacific Fire In
surance company to recover $4,000 in
surance for the loss of the frame build
ing formerly located at 1927 Second

MORE COMPLICATIONS.
Another Labyrinth Added to the
Matters of the ST. Louis Road.

The foreclosure suit Of Henry Seibert
VS.. Minneapolis IL st. Louis Railway
company long ago became too cOmpli-
Gated for the average reader. AS mat
tiers are now shaping the attorneys in
the case will have to look we'll to their
knitting or they may also be lost in the
sea of complications.
Yesterday morning all the attorneys
in the case were served with notice in
the proper way to the effect that +. III.
Griggs, of Iowa, had demanded that
several mortgages In which he is inter-
ested be foreclOsed and the property of
the road sold to the highest bidder.
The complaints served state that Griggs
is the owner of twenty-one bonds and
twelve coupons in the mortgage held by
the Farmers Loan and Trust company;
three bonds and fifty-seven interest
coupons of one series held by the Cen
trail Trust company, and three bonds
and twenty-fOur coupons in another of
the same company's series. The whole
claim amounts to $34, 900, considerably
less than several other claims. ajs
If the court allows the mortgage to be
foreclosed there will be reign of ter
rOr' among those who hold claims. The
are of the opinion that Griggs must
wait and take chances with the others.
Cook & Dodge, of Davenport, and
Akers & Lancaster, of this city, are
Griggs' attorneys.
Griggs is new man in the struggle,
and it is impossible to tell just what his
intentions are. The attorneys in the
suit and Receiver Truesdale thought
some time ago that all who were in
terested in the case had come into the
litigation. 1t is their opinion that Griggs
has an investment in sight where he
will not be compelled to pay all the in
terest he receives from his money to
protect it. The case has already reached
the point where it is the greatest re-
Ownership case in the world. Judge
Lochren, who has listened to the case
all through. will pass upon the Griggs
matter.

Hennepin's Quota Next Week.

TIC committee appointed by the Dust
ness mems union to straighten up the
matter of Hennepin county's quota of
the worlds fair fund, now being con-
tributed pro rata by the counties of the
state, had another session Yesterday.
The plan spoken of in the GLOBE yes
terday morning, that of having the sub
scribers to the fund 90 OIL a note for the
full amount, is the one that will, IN all
probability, be adopted. The committee
has done nothing yet because of the
absence from the city of several men
who are expected to head the list of
names on the note. AS soon as they re-
turn the work Of liking up the note will
be taken up. E. M. Johnson, the chair
man of the committee. says that the

Demnsex Will Reform.

Jack Dempsey, the old drunkard who
has been to the workhouse more times
than he or any one else can remember,
and who has, according to his own state
ment, been drunk for nine years. has
decided to reform. He was arraigned
In the municipal court yesterday on the
old complaint, and expressed wish to
Judge Mahoney to be allowed TO take
the bichloride of gold cure. The judge
thereupon released him on parole and
had HIM sent to bichloride institute
for treatment. Dempsey was one of the
most notorious drunkards in the city,
and he had the reputation of drinking
more whisky than any man in the
Northwest. The poorer the whisky the
better he liked it, and he has been
known to drink diluted nitric acid.

Lost His balance.

A driver of stone wagon, named
Olson, got drunk yesterday afternoon
and had dreadful time i'll retaining
his equilibrium on the seat of the
wagon. He wabbed backwards and
forwards, the people who witnessed his
motions imagining that he was an India
rubber man in the employ of the dime
museum and merely advertising what
feats he could accomplish. When his
wagon got in front of the Columbia on
Third street, Olson lost his balance and
fell off, striking the curb with his head.
He was picked up and taken to the CEN
trail station, where DR.. Gibson dressed a
number of wounds he had received In
the head and face. 1t is also thought
that he sustained internal injuries.

How Did Ii End?

Five deacons, composing committee
appointed by Trinity Lutheran church
to investigate the Gjiertsen-BIichfeldt
controversy, met in the church last
night. Rev. Giiertsen is the pastor, AMI
the deacons last night were supposed to
consider the all-important question of
whether Aid. Blichfeldt should remain
a member OF the church or not, after
having had the audacity to talk back"
to his minister. The outcome of the
meeting could not be ascertained, as
the deacons persisted in talking Norwe-

No Anti-saloon Witnesses.

The case of Roman & Person. against
whom the crusaders preferred charge
of violating the saloon and Sunday Or
dlnance, was dismissed yesterday. 1t
was intended that this case should be
used to test the new ordinance, but the
witnesses for the state did not put in an
appearance. Walter S. Briggs could
not give the necessary evidence SO the
case had to be dropped. The crusaders
are at loss to know what has become
of their witnesses. 1t. is likely, howey-
err, that they have been induced to with
draw from view for short time by the
defense.
