BAD ROAD PICTURES
Promise to Give a Wrong Impression
About Minnesota.

Otto Dorner, chairman of the L. A.
w national committee for highway i'm
proVements, has sent prominent local
wheelmen a pamphlet offering $125 as
the prize for the best photograph of a
bad road submitted by any rider in
Northwestern territory. The competi-
ton is not limited to members of the
L. A. W., but is open to all alike. The
first prize is $50; the second $25; the
third, $15; and the fourth, $40. The
photographs will be used in illustrating
articles on the subject of bad roads.
A number of disciples of the camera
in this city and vicinity have photo
the beholder that Minnesota roads must
be beyond possibility of exception the
worst on earth. Most of these photos
were taken during the spring breakup
last year, when the boulevard en- route
to Minnetonka, for instance, was sea
of mud, and the Minnehaha boulevard
was scarcely better. The pictures sug-
gest that such roads as they depict
could not be good under any possible
circumstances, and yet they have been
in first-class condition for wheeling
during the greater part of the summer.
There are also pictures taken of sec
lions of roadway between this city and
Mortified, showing, the road to be a
veritable slough, cut up with wagon
tracks and impassa BILE for bicycles. At
the same time century records, not very
much improved on in any part of the
country, have been made over that very
same road.
The most striking characteristic of
Minnesota roads is that they become
available for wheeling in a phenomen-
ally short time after a heavy rain, and
there is only one period of the year at
which such photographs as will most
likely figure in the L. A w. collection,
could be taken-namely, in the spring
breakup when several feet of snow
have combined with spring rains t. rem.
der the surface of all nature as soft
as butter. Such pictures cannot be
otherwise than misleading, and their
Use in such q connection will prove
nothing except that appearances are
deceptiYe.

OF A POPULAR ORDER.
Settings Sunday Concerts Continue
Artistic Successes.

Director c. NJ. Selling and his Grand
opera house orchestra furnished an
hours enjoyment yesterday afternoon
to the rather Slender audience which
found its way to JConover hall, and.
although the organization labored un-
der several disadvantages, the we'll Sc
lected, evenly balanced musical menu
was on the whole we'll given. To be-
gin with, the hall was none too warm.
and with thesempty chairs some inspi-
ration must have been withheld from
the musicians. Again, the violins were
hardly strongs enough for the brasses,
and in the ford passages the best
effect was not apparent to their audi
tors. In spite of this however, the
numbers, which included both classical
and popular selections, were played in
good style and were appreciated Per-
haps the gem OF the. card was the over
ture from Rossini's great old Italian
opera 'Tancredi." given in a spirited
manner and with mitch effect
Other interesting numbers were the
intermeZZo from "Naila," by Leo De-
libes, an exquisitely pretty number with
dainty passages, and a potpourfi of the
best excerpts from DoniZetti's 'Lucre-
tia Borgia." The programme opened
with martial composition by Director
Selling, which he has named Prog

portrayal of the Dromios has been univer-
sally characterized as one of the most fin
ished Characterization that has ever been
presented. "She Stops to Conquer" will be

SUPT. WEBER ISN'T RINvYNc,
AFTER THE PRIZE OF CORO-
NER NELSON.
DOES NOT WORK FOR REWARD.
THAT THIRTY-MINITE CLAIM
SEEMS TO HAVE A STRING
ON 1T.
If THE AUTHORITIES WILL CALI
PinI1erton's Local Manager Says He
VIII Give Them the Benefit of
His Information.

Supt. Weber says Coroner Nelson's
offer of 500 if he will prove mis- state
ment branding the Lambert lake mys-
terry a hoax will in no way change his
attitude in the matter. Nor is the adj
ditional offer yesterday of Detective
Campbell of another 500 of any effect
in bringing Supt. Weber to the scratch.
Because Supt. Weber says the Pinker-
ton agency does not work for rewards
or contingent funds, and a paltry 5000
does not amount to much anyway. He
will, however, Supt. Weber says. place
at the disposal of the authorities the
information upon which he bases his
claim that the affair is merely hoax
if they will take the trouble to call at
the Pinkerton office. He declines to
argue the question in the newspapers,
he says and rather resents what he
claims is ridicule which has been aim
ed at him through this channel Seen
at his residence last evening, Capt.
Weber though quite i'll from an at
tack of asthma, consented to briefly
discuss Coroner Nelson's offer. He said:
The challenge of Coroner Nelson
with the 500 forfeit. so far as 1 am
concerned, has no bearing in this mat
ter as the Pinkerton agency does not
do business this way. If the authOri-
ties desire any assistance or informa-
ton from me, they know where to go
and get it. I am a personal friend Of
Sheriff Wagener's and do not care to
encourage what appears to me an at
tempt to stir up trouble between my
self and the county authorities. I had
no desire to be concerned in this af-
fair at all, but was several times ask
ed for an expression Of opinion, and
when / gave my theory to the public
/ received Tidicule and criticism in re-
turn. | am ON the best of terms with
all local authorities, and the PinkertOn
agency is at all times, when consistent
with its business principles, ready to
render any possible assistance to either
the municipal or county officials. When
| desire to communicate with any Of
the local authorities / call at their Of
flee and in a straightforward business
way seek the information / may want.
If the officials Investigating the Lam
bert lake affair had pursued the same
methods. any information 1 may pos
sess would have been given them with
out all Of this newspaper talk. If they
see fit 10 call upon me now, my infor-
nation is at their command"
VIII you tell the authorities the
names of the parties who you are ac-
credited with saying you knew perpe-
trated the joke?" Supt Weber was ask
ed.
Il don't know. l may. but it will
depend largely on circumstances. After
the criticism to which / have been sub
jected am not at all certain that l am
under obligation to disclose anything"
Detective Campbell said yesterday
that he was 50 positive, after working
over week on the case that it was
a murder that he would add 500 tc
the offer Of Coroner Nelson, if Supt.
Weber could demonstrate the correct
ness of his hoax theory.

TOWN CLERK A FoRGER.
That Is the Sensation That Shakes
Hampton, Ill.

George B. Henry, town clerk and
Justice of the peace, of Hampton ILL.,,
was an eminently respectable member
of that eminently respectable little
town. The wickedness which pervades
Rock Island, ten miles distant, did not
invade the precincts of Hampton If
it did there was Judge Henry in
his capacity of justice of the peace to-
deal with, and he was known far and
wide as one who did not believe in tenn
pering justice with mercy. An upright
man was George B. Henry, and he even
discouraged gum chewing and other
light conduct in the Sunday school of
which he was superintendent.
There was also a Mrs. George B.
Henry and three Miss Henrys who en-
jcyed the reflected responsibility of the
head of the family, and who lived
quietly and unostentatiously beneath
his sheltering wing. For Mr. Henry
was what is known as a good pro-
WIDER" He cared for his family with
a liberal hand and saw that in their
home, their pleasures and pursuits, and
IL their dress, they did credit to his
eminent station.
The citizens of Hampton held Mr.
Henry in high esteem and regarded him
as an exemplary member of their COM
mUnity. They were glad that he took
an active part in politics, and they
were f1attered when he consented to act
as delegate to their county, state, con
glessional and other conventions, for

MARY is INcoRRIGIBLE.
Says Her Sister, who Seeks Her
Reclamation.

Mary Shadrick, fifteen-year-ol girl
whose relatives are unable to restrain
her from wayWardness, was arrested
last evening on the charge of incorrigi-
bility, preferred by her sister, Mrs. Lu-
celle Wheelock living at PSI West
Seventh street. The girl is still within
the jurisdiction of the municipal court
pending the settlement of a previous
charge of incorrigibility tried some
months ago. At the time Mrs. Whee-
lock believed that she could reclaim
her sister, and the~g girl was allowed to
go to her home. Several weeks ago
Agent D. T. Wellington caused the girl
to be taken to the county jail, on in
formation that she had again become
reckless. and sought to have her case
certified to the district court that she
might be sent to the state training
school at Red Wing. Mrs. Wheelock
opposed this course; and was indignant
at Mr.. Wellington's efforts in the girls
behalf, but has herself now lodged in
formation against her sister The girls
parents are dead. Though but fifteen
years of age the Shadrick girl appears
fully three years older and is quite a
preposSessing girl.
