member moved a favorable recon-

without question. OF course, this was

resent interests that we feel cannot be

oppose the bill, outside of it's ambigu-

the extreme to accuse myself, or any

ST. LOUIS COUNTY MEMBERS.

not only in the law, but exceedingly
well read in general literature He
lectures on maritime Jurisprudence
at the state university, and besides
practicing law has found time to
indulge in politics. His taste for the
latter pursuit is natural, as he was
born in Ohio and grew up in that
state. He is not quite forty years
of age, above the average height,
and handsome in form and feature.
A kindly man, he can be severe if
is courteous and obliging. He is a
worker as we'll as student; only the
spirit of economy can account for
his failure to secure the normal
school appropriation in the senate.
Neil McInnis is one of the cleverest
of the quiet men of the house. He is
the senior member from Duluth, and an
all-alound good man. When he has
anything to say, he puts 1t into few
plain, blunt sentences and abides the
result whether it be favorable or
otherwise, with equanimity. McInnis
is native of Nova Scotia, of Scotch
stock. He is three and fifty years Of
age, and for twenty years has been
engaged in mining. He has gained
a modest competency in the business
and lives in pleasant home at Tower,
where a happy family of boys and
girls keeps him from getting the lesat
bit sour. OF a sturdy build, he looks
the successful, solid man that he is;
and his friends and acquaintance all
like to meet McInniS and enjoy his
quaint humor and epigrammatic re-
marks.
j. NJ Smith is forty-one years old,
though he does not look it. He is an
insurance agent, but his tongue does
not wag very loosely. Pennsylvania
is where he was born and raised. In
the days of bonanza wheat farming
he spent four years on the Dalrymple
farm near CasSelton, N. d. After
ward he was in the commission busi-
ness at Duluth, with Oliver Dalrymple,
then drifted into insurance. He is now
holding his first political office, and
attends to his duties as any wide
awake business man would. AS a
worker on the floor of the house he
is host in himself.
William A. Cant is the orator of the
delegation. He is a Wisconsin boy,
thirty years of age, and a lawyer.
Cant takes life seriously, and it would
seem unnatural to see him dealing
with any question in a flippant man
ner. After graduating from the st.
Cloud normal he studied law at Ann
Arbor; thence he went to Duluth, and
for nine years he has been imbibing
the spirit of hustle that pervades the
Zenith city. To committee work and
general legislation he gives earnest
attention. On any measure of i'm
portance he is sure to have decided
opinions, and takes occasion to ,ex-
press them. He is a successful legis-
lator, because a hard-working one, and
no one who knows him questions his
honesty as man and public servant

DoM1NEE,s BLOODY SHOE.
New Sensation in the San Fran
cisco Tragedy.


SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, April IL
The police are still busy in picking up
the threads and weaving their net
work of circumstantial evidence in the
Emanuel church cases, SO as to leave
no weak mesh through which the ac-
cused can escape, for they believe they
have the murderer in the person of
w. H. T. Durant. 1t is now thought
they will make an endeavor to try
Durant first on the charge of murder
ing Miss Lamont, as the evidence in
that case is said to be much stronger
against the prisoner than in the case
of the killing of Miss Williams. Re-
ferring to the rumor that Blanche La
mont was lured to the church by Dur
ant on the promise to perform a GRIM
inal operation on her to save her from
disgrace, and that when she shrieked
in agony he caught her by the. throat
to stifie her cries and choked her to
death, DR.. Barrett, the city autopsy
physician, stated the rumor was with
out foundation. He says he took es-
pecial care in the matter of autopsy,
and he is satisfied that no criminal
operation was performed. He also
stated that both young women died of
strangulation, and that the knife
wounds on Miss Williams body were
not the cause of death Among the
gruesome exhibits in the case is one
that was quietly taken to police head
quarters and locked up, and not until
a late hour last night did the police
acknowledge they had it. This ex-
hibit is shoe, and on it's sole are
dark spots that were made when the
wearer stepped into a pool of blood
that came from the body of Miss Will
Jams. The shoe is the property of Rev.
George Gibson, pastor of the church,
and it was found in his study In the
edifice last Sunday just after the find
Ing of the body of Miss Lamont. This
statement has created a sensation, and

APPROACHED A JURyMAN.
Serious Charge Brought Against
a Railroad Man.

Judge Austin has ordered that NJ: A.

man in the case of w. J. Lavelle VS..
the Chicago, Milwaukee & ST. Paul
railroad. Patitz is chief draughtsman
In the West Milwaukee shops of the
company. He was one of the chief
witnesses of the road when the case
was tried last February. G. C. Kieek,
who was on the jury that tried the
case, has made affidavit that Patitz
approached him and said that Lavelle
had been offered $4,000 and steady
job with the road and was a fool for
not accepting it. The case was being
argued yesterday, on a motion by the
company for a new trial, which was
granted. The jury in the first trial
of the case gave Lavelle a verdict for
$11 ZOO. Lavelle was riding in pas
senger car with one arm hanging out
of the window. AS the car passed a
siding his arm was struck by the door

GIVEN IN MARRIAGE

by the British ambassador is entirely
incorrect. Sir Julian Pauneefote will
have no part in the marriage ceremony
other than to be present among the
lookers-on. He will, of course. with
Lady Pauncefote, be one of the guests
at the wedding breakfast, and will
doubtless then offer the toast to the
health, happiness, and long life'' of
the bride and groom. The ceremony
at the church will be strictly in ac-
cordance with the English fashion for
such happy events, even in regard to
the hour. This has been set at half
past II o'clock, as in England no mar
riages are permitted to take place after
IL o'clock. There will be a full choral
service, for which the choristers have
been practicing for a fortnight past.
Bishop Talbot, Of Wyoming, who has
known the bride-elect since her earliest
childhood, will perform the betrothal
and marriage service, after which
Archdeacon Mackay-Smith will pro-
nounce the benediction.
