NOW, here's the very place for that

dre*smaker. Goodness knows. I've
heard complaints enough about lack of

been signing for them, but they haven't

Even tailors gave up trying to plaster
a pocket on the outside of skirts No

According to the ruling of Judge Elliott,
OF MinneADolis, the practice of so-caIled
Christian science healing does not come
under the general statute regulating the
practice of medicine in this state.
This view was given public expression
to yesterday by Judge Elliott, when he
rendered an oral decision allowing the
demurrer to the indictments in the cases
OF the state against Albert P. Meyers and
Mary Brookings, who were charged with
practicing medicine without a license
AS matter Of fact, when the statute
relating to the practice of medicine was
enacted by the legislature, Christian sci
ence as treatment was almost unknown.
and the court holds that it does not come
within the scope of the act which must
be remedied, if at all, at a future session
of the legislature.
In accordance with the ruling Of Judge
Elliott, both Mrs. Brookings and Movers
were discharged, and in his order. which
will be filed later, Judge Elliott will give
MS reasons, in a review Of the law ar
length. The Indictment was based on a
charge Of malpractice made in connec-
ton with the treatment and subsequent
death Of child in the Kearns family. in
North Minneapolis, suffering from dipb-
iberia.

FOR CHARTER REVISION.
Action Taken at a Mass Meeting of
Minneapolis Citizens.

Representative citizens of Minneapolis
met in the board of trade rooms there
last evening to consider the question Of
charter revision. The following resolu-
ton was adopted:
Resolved, That a committee of ten be
appointed by the chairman of this meet
ing to present to the judges OF the as
trict court the request of this meet.
ing that said district court OF
charter commission, and that such
committee be and is hereby authorized
and instructed to take all needful steps
leading to the appointment OF such COM
mission
The meeting was called to order by s..
T. Johnson. president of the board OF
trade. He called J. c. Eliel to the chair,
and asked Frank Forbes to act as Sec
rotary of the meeting.
The general opinion of those who par
ticipated. as voiced by the different
speakers. was that the old charter is a
long way from being up TO the require
ments of a great and growing city, ana
that there is urgent need for the adop-
ton of a new instrument by which evils
of the present document will be remedied.
Not a dissenting voice was raised during
the meeting although the point was
made that the interests Of the city might
best be served if no premature action
were taken before the subject had been
given the thorough discussion which its
Importance merited.
The committee of ten will probably be
announced today. Its first business will
be to put in circulation a petition for
presentation to the district court contain
ing the request for the appointment Of
the commission.

PINE IN PLENTY.
States Supply Will Keep Mills In
Operation Fifty Years.

Charles B. Garrison, formerly at the
head of the state land force, and one of
the best estimdtors in Minnesota, arrived
at Minneapolis yesterday morning from
the north shore of Lake Superior, where
he has been estimating pine lands in
Lake, Cook and st. Louis counties,
traversing the territory as far north as
the Rainy river.
When asked as to the truth of state
ments repeatedly made that Minnesota
was rapidly nearing the end of her pine
resources, Mr. Garrison said that the
alarm was ridiculously premature.
The fact is he said, that there IS pine
enough remaining in this state to supply
the mills now operating for fifty years
at a very moderate estimate. This is
basing the cut on the present mill ca
pacity, which is not likely TO be very
much increased for the reason that
about all the standing pine is in the
hands of those who own the mills.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2O.-The secretary
of war spent over two hours today with
the president, discussing his annual re-
port, on which will be based some of the
most important sec ions Of the pres ident's
message to congress 1t is understood
that this section of the message Will be
held open as loSg as possible, awaiting
developments in the Philippines, which
may change the status of the situation
almost any day. The other sections Of
the message are nearly completed, but to
finish the message before congress meets
will call for large amount of hard work
Owing to this fact 1t is probable that the
president will not be able to go to Nash
vile to participate in the welcome home
of the Tennessee regiment. No definite
determination has been made. however
IL the trip is undertaken it will be made
In the briefest practicable time.
There were a number of callers at the
White house today. Senator Plat Joined

WINONA, MINI, Nov. &.-(Special)-
Much interest is being manifested in the
story of Mrs. H. J. ONeil, wife of the
so-called Barley King" who is now on
her way to Europe, and who was arrest
ed last week at Montreal. Can. charged
with defrauding her creditors of $500, coo

Winona was Mrs. O'Neils home for
number of years, she being the daughter
of S. ]. Tomlinson, a former editor of

per at Pontiac, Mich.
Mrs. O'Neil was first married at Lapeer,
Mich, the home of her parents, some If
teen years ago, to Mr.. Mcpherson, who
was then cashier of one of the leading
banks Of Saginaw, Mich. 1t was the
O'Neil case over again, only on more
modest scale. A divorce was secured
from Mcpherson at Minneapolis about
five years ago, after which Mrs. O'Neil
came to Winona. Mr.. O'Neil became in
fatuated with her, went to Milwaukee
one day and there married her, and from
Winona they moved to Chicago
1t is learned that while the Chicago de-
| tecttves were watching the trains out Of
| that city to the East, Mrs. O'Neil took a
| train one night last week for Duluth,
| passing through Winona en- route, and
she was seen and recognized by Winona
| passenger on the same train. She was in
Duluth for several days and in this way
fooled the Chicago officers who had war
rants for her arrest in case she should
attempt to leave the city and get beyond
! the jurisdiction of the court in which
bankruptcy proceedings were In progress.
| She is too smart a woman to be caught
so easily, and the presumption that she is
carting $4,000 worth of diamonds about
in the thirteen trunks now with her at
Montreal too ridiculous for serious
thought. When the thirteen trunks now
held by the Canadian authorities on. an
attachment sworn out by the Chicago
lawyers are opened It is asserted they will
be found to contain no diamonds, but
only her costly wardrobe.
