MILE JOHANNA's TASTES,
which Barnum ~ Bailey Are In
clined to Encourage.

Under the Barnum & Bailey tents
on the University avenue grounds
next Tuesday Mile Johanna will re-
celVe IN truly democratic fashion
every one who wishes to study her
case, and to learn what changes civ
lllzatlon has wrought upon her orig
lnal savage state. Mile. Johanna is
fast losing her distinctive qualities,
and becoming one of the people.
The evidence of having eaten of the
tree of knowledge first. showed itself
in her demand for clothes. She now
wears clothes-calico skirts, house
wrappers and a fashionable hat
Though there is still something in her
general makeup suggestive af the
untutored aboriginal in a plug hat
and pair of army boots, Mile. is
growing sensitive as to her personal
appearance. She is anxious abut her
hat being on straight, and is contin-
ually manipulating the mirror and in
dulg1ng in that process ladies call
"prlmping." She is also growing par
tcularly fastidious about her eating,
being unhappy without silver-plated
knife, fork and spoon, all of which
she manipulates with easy grace. 1t
is painful to admit. however that GER
tain other evidences of civilization,
not wholly praisworthy, have also
manifested themselves. Mile. Johanna
smokes cigarettes and a pipe, and
drinks rum with a gusto almost hui
man.

FORMER BONDsMEN SERVE AGAIN,
Perjury Charge still Hanging Fire,
but Will BE NOIIcd IL Little
Later.

William f. Bickel is out of Jail again.
Mr.. Bickel has been in and out of the
equity bastile so often in the last few
months that it would seem odd for
him to not be either bereaking into or
out of Sheriff Wagener's hosiery. Three
weeks ago Mr. Bickel, of his own &C
cord, went to jail his purpose being
TO secure a speedy trial of the two in
dictments against him. The result
sought for was secured and last week
the court set July - as the day for his
trial on the indictmt Mt charging him
with grand larceny and July % as the
date of his trial on the indictment
charging him with perjury. After the
date for the trials had been set, Mr.
Bickel commenced to long for fresher
air and more hOmelike comforts than
are parceled out to the inmates of the
Jail.
The finish was thai he was yesterday
taken before Judge Lewis and gave
bonds for his appearance in the dis
trict court July 10. His bondsmen were
Uri Lamphrey and Patrick Conley.
Judge Lewis fixed the bond in the
grand larceny case at s., 900, and on the
perjury case at $1,000, it being under
Stood as already told in the Globe.
that when the perjury case is called the
county attorney will enter a noIle. The
formality of examining the bondsmen
having been gone through with and the
bonds duly signed and approved, Mr..
Bickel left the court house with his
attorney. To a reporter for the G O e
Mr.. Bickel said that he was going home
to get acquainted with his family. No
one, he said, had any idea what
strain it is to be confined in jail until
they tried it. 1t was not so bad in the
day time, but when night came the
place was hot and stuffy and he found
1t impossible to sleep more than three
hours any night during the last three
weeks he had been confined in the
county hotel. Mr. Bickel said he did
not care to discuss the charges against
him, but intimated that the story he
would tell, If the cases ever came to
trial, would convince the public that
he had not been guilty of any wrong
doing.

TO HAVE DECEIVED THE
RAILROADS
IN THE MATTER OF BILLING
WILL GET AN OPPORTUNITY TO RE-
ADJUST "THE INCORRECT CLAs-
SIFTCATION.''
NO ACTIONS WILL BE NECESSARY
Railway Men Think the Matter VIII
BE Settled Up without More
Trouble.

The story printed in the G b e yes
terday of how one u two coal COM
paries had so managed their affairs as
to be able to undersell their competi-
tors in the winter by billing their hard
coal as the soft article and paying only
the lesser charge for the latter, created
quite a lot of gossip yesterday, both
among the coal men, some of whom
were greatly relieved at not being in on
the deal, and also among the railroad
freight departments where some
curiosity was expressed as to how the
facts in the matter leaked out. The
interested freight officials, those whose
lines were mulcted for a part of their
just revenue, while they felt consider
ably gratified at the discovery, still felt
delicate about discussing the thing.
The most that could be learned from
the officials of the Omaha, ST Paul &
Duluth and Eastern Minnesota people
in the way of details is that the matter
is in the hands of Superintendent
George L. Carman, of the Western
Railway Weighing association, and
Inspection bureau. 1t was one of his
men, they aver, who II ade the discov-
figures printed in the G O b are in
the main correct they decline to say
much about the case. They do sug-
gest, however, that the superintendent
of the association of which their lines
are members, will give the coal COM
panies the opportunity to readjust
what the freight men very gracefully
term IAN incorrect classification of the
business"
Under all the circumstances, it is
generally supposed that the coal men
will embrace this opportunity, although
the railroaders scout the idea that any
suits for the recovery of the unpaid
amounts will be in any wise necessary
The different lines have no interest in
the matter as individual lines, the
whole matter being left, as stated, with
Superintendent Carman, whose head
quarters are in Chicago.
In this connection it is due a ST.
Paul corporation to state that the
Northwestern Fuel company was not
one of these companies, and it has
never in any manner been suggested
or intimated that the Northwestern
Fuel company had ever engaged, or in
any manner participated in the practi-
ces referred to. On the contrary, the
G l O b knows that the Northwestern
Fuel company has not participated in
this scheme.

corning the same subject in the suit

j. Esch, the court finds that plaintiff

peal from the order requiring the sur

MALONE BOUND OVER.
The Man Who Sold Lemon Extract
to the Indians.

to the Indians.
Assistant United States District At
torney Dickey returned to st. Paul
yesterday from Detroit, Mimi, where
he had been called to take charge or
the preliminary examination of
Charles Malone. Malone was arrested
on a charge of selling intoxicating
liquors to Indians. While it was hard
ly intoxicating liquor that Malone DIS
posed of to the Indians. the examine
ton brought out that one Indian had
purchased nine bottles of essence OF
lemon, and another seventeen bottles
of the same extract. BY mixing this
with other liquids and then drinking
the brew three of the Indians died and
a number of others were very sick.
Malone had an examination before
United States Commissioner Griffin at
Detroit, and was held to await the ac-
ton of the grand jury, which meets at
Duluth in October. His bail was fixed
at $1,000, which will be given today at
Duluth, and Malone released. Malone
keeps traders store at Malone Point,
Mile Laos lake. He admitted that he
sold the essence to the Indians, but
claimed that he had no malicious in
tent, and expected no harmful results
as the Indians all owed him money and
he would have had no reason to do any
of them any injury.
