With all the sensational discus.
sio, about corruption in the Min.
neapolis city government, It seems
doubtful if the courts can fasten
any illegal acts on any officials.
Tie grand jury indicted threemen,
but all seem to have defenses that
will protect them from punish
ment, even If they are not able to
convince the public and courts OF
tn. ir innocence. While the public
has apparently suffered from the
results of the acts Of aldermen, it
is not clear how any corruption
can be proved.

Regarding the murder Of the. Max
well hoy ut, Dagget Brook two weeks
ago the Brainerd Journal advances
the theory given pelow: The most
reason able presumption IL that she
killed the by. Her own hoy was
very had. and had been in the state
reform school. He was sent home
from the reform shcOol, but Maxwell
thought the boy SO bad that he
would not allow him to live in his
house, ON account Ut the bad inhu-
ence over mis- own boy. Mrs. Prayer
was very anxious to have her own
boy with her, and saw no obstacle
but the presence of the Maxwell boy.
II Maxwell wanted to get rid of his
boy he could easily have given him
away. But apparently he did not
want to get rid Of him. Mrs. Prayer
could not give him away. and she
saw no way to dispose Of him ex-
cept to Kill him. Then the way
would pc open for her own boy to
come. F., Her own bOv was living
with a family about two miles a way.
Undoubtedly Maxwell knew the
worst and came as soon as he was
told of the fire. He appears t" have
liked Mrs. Ere yer quite well, and his
urious conduct after the murder Is
such "a any weak minded man might
have been guilty OF under the circum-
stances. Possibly he was, but che
circumstances are not conclusive by
any means. 1t is beyond question
that Mrs. Freyer had a very strong
influence over him. 1t is possible to
see where Mrs. Prayer had a very
strong motive for murder, butte it is
difficult to find sufficient ground for
such q motive, On Maxwell's part.
Possibly there may BE- new develop
ments before court opens again.

George Atkins. young man of about
2s years Of age, met with horrible ac-
cident yesterday morning. Atkins was
employed at the Langton lime quarry.
about half a mile north of the Warm
Springs. When the accident occurred
he was working in the quarry on a
blast. a hole about six or eight feet
deep had been drilled in the limestone
ledge. and Atkins was preparing to
Spring" it. It is customary with
Quarrymen to first drill a hole in the
rock to be blasted, and then to pour
some black powder into the hole This
is then exploded. with the result that

bottom of the hole. and the rock some

ing" Dynamite is then introduced. and
the rock is blasted out.
Atkins was engaged in "springing'
the hole. and had put in about a quart
or black powder. when suddenly the
charge exploded with frightful results.
AT the time OF the explosion Atkins was
leaning over the hole. and the charge
caught him in the face He was
knocked several feet from the spot, and
presented a horrible appearance. The
whole right side of his face was torn

sustained the objections of her counsel

once admitted in evidence, it was
promptly submitted to the jurors to-
