Died-Monday afternoon, of scarlet
fever and complications, Mary Ann Eta
second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. David
Roberts, aged a little more than fifteen
years. Eta had been ill two weeks and
was very sick from the first. One thing
after another seemed to bar her chances
of recovery and at last she succumbed
and yielded up her bright, young life.
When asked if she were afraid to die she
said:"No, l love Jesus" She was a uni
versal %favorite, loved by her school
mates and by the members of the Con-
gregational Sunday school of which she
had long been a faithful member. She
was conscientious and if she promised
to do a thing would surely perform it.
Tender, kind and sympathetic, many
will miss her bright presence. She
loved flowers and it was with loving
remembrance that the flowers found
blooming in midwinter we're sent to
adorn the casket. A memorial service
will be held later by the church and
Sunday school as only the services at
the cemetery could take place now,
The many friends mourn with and ex-
tend sympathy to the bereaved parents

of municipal government is to be put to
the supremest test. Within its limits is
contained a population equal to that of

that of the original thirteen states. Pro-
visions for the life and health of this vast

OF Senator Green.
St. Paul, Jan. ia warrant was is
sued Saturday for the arrest of Senator
]. S. Green of Mandan, N. D., for con-
tempt of court. 1t will be remembered
that Judge Johnson ordered Green to
show cause last November why he
should not be punished for disobeying
the courts orders to turn over certain
property to Alexander McCune, who is
receiver of the partnership of which
Green was a member. The papers
were ordered served on his attorney,
I. G. Ingersoll, of St. Paul, as Green
himself was out of the state. The case
was afterward taken under advisement
by the court on the question of power
to adjudge a party in contempt when
service is upon the attorney and not
personal. The court held subsequently
that the service was good.
Then Green wrote to the court ask
ing for time, saying that he had in
tended no disrespect, and promising to
make full explanation by Dec. 10
Early in December he wrote again ask
ing that the matter be delayed until
the holidays. Being notified that the
case would be disposed of on Jan. 8,
he appeared in court on the 9Th with
Attorney Flannery and petitioned for a
further delay until last Tuesday, which
was granted on his representation that
he had important business in Iowa.
Both sides had agreed to consider the
matter at a special term Saturday, but
Green did not show up and no one ap-
peared for him. Mr.. Flannery was tele-
phoned, and said that he understood
Green had been seer in St. Paul Satur-
day afternoon. The court then, of its
own motion, ordered an attachment is
sued for Green's arrest, which was de-
livered to the sheriff about the middle of
