OF THE SUPREME
COURT
LOWER COURTS AFFIRMED
QuIntette of Decisions in the APP
pelIRte Court Sustains the
Findings of Courts
Below.

Justice Lovely, of the supreme court,
yesterday handed down five decisions, the
nost important of which was the state
against the Northwestern Telephone COM
pany, holding that it must pay taxes on
its real property. The syllabi of the
decisions as follow:
In re proceedings TO enforce payment
of taxes for 1897:
State OF Minnesota, plaintiff, VS.. North
western Telephone Exchange Company,
defendant.
Syllabus. For the purposes of taxa
ton, the statutory tax lien for the cur
rent year attaches to real property on
the LIST day of May, is subject to taxa
ton under section 1929 General Statutes
1894
. The ownership of the real property
on the LIST day Of May determines the la
biity of such property to taxation for
that year, and, If it is taxable at that
time. the lien then attaches and such
lien is not diverted by a sale after that
day to a corporation, which has com
muted to the state by a payment of a
percentage on its gross earnings in lieu
of all other taxes

and ne further said that, although ne
had six children of his own. he would
now gladly take the girl and he would
have entire confidence In her proving
worthy OF care and kind treatment. He
repeatedly declared she was always
a good girl.
Every official. whether OF the police
or fire department. who has 20 far
come in contact with the girl. has been
impressed In her favor. Capt Parker
or the detective bureau said after his
talk with Susie. in which she was in
duced TO make a full statement Of the
affair, that IL deeply moved his better
nature and made him crawl" when he
contemplated the child's plight.
Susie was told that her past good
conduct had enlisted the interest OF a
number OF persons and she was asked
IL she would promise that IL she were
allowed TO return TO her aunt, she
would not do wrong again. For a time
the child remained silent, but weeping.
When persuaded by the police matron
20 speak. she said she did not want to
go to prison. Under further persua-
sion she said she would rather go 10
Cranston than return TO the conditions
she had left. IL IL were TO go elsewhere
she would give the desired promise.
Mr.. and Mrs. McCahrey said last night
that they have no desire to have the
emu imprisoned. On tne contrary they
hope that some other course may be
taken. They were willing she should
be taken In charge by the probation
officer. or that she should go 20 Mr.
Midgley II NJ should be deemed advis-
able TO take such "a course.
In relation TO the statement made by
the aunt that Susie had spent money
lavishly at the Food fair and that she
thought the child had taken the money
from the house. Mr.. Steere. the prin-
cipaf or the school. saio that Susie had
sold more tickets to the Food fair than
any other child I'm the school, and for
every five sold she had one for herself,
which she probably sold. II was sug-
gested that fhis might account for the
money she had TO spend with the other
children at the fair.
Susie was arraigned In the Juvenile
court this morning and by advice Of
her counsel. James A. Pirce, pleaded
not guilty. and was held for trial on
June 3. No bail was required, Judge
Sweetland placing her i'm the charge OF
Miss Denehy. who will provide for her
a good home with surroundings far
more congenial than those which she
has been accustomed to for some time.
