Letta and Her curIs.
g Milwaukee Sentinel.

From the Milwaukee Sentinel
 In a Wisconsin town were two young girls who were fast friends and had but one jealousy between them. The older of the two had hair just the common length, whne the younger had long brown tresses that reached near the bot tom of her dress. Night and day Letta of the scanty locks pondered over the situation and tried various means to coax and impress upon her hair the pro- priety of thrift But all in vain. As time sped on, her parents moved to Mill waukee. and as they were sorting and packing Letta found in an old bureau nothing less than a bunch of curls that her mother had worn in her girlhood. Comparison proved them to be the exact color.
 Now" said the young leader of fash ion "I will be just swell the first day at school.'
 Letta braided her hair carefully and tied the curls at the end with a fresh ribbon.
 When recess came the girls were rang ed up in a row for pull-away, and as all went flying across the school yard a. spry little maiden caught the curls as they sped by her, and To! they stayed with her while their owner went straight to the goal.

EXPERT TESTIMONY
introduced i'm the Hamilton Case
Where Doctors Dfsagree

where Doctors Disagree.
MINNEAPOLIS, February 14.-Med-
ical experts testified to-day in the de-
fence of Frank Hamilton the newspaper
reporter, charged with stabbing to
death Leonard Day, young million
aire, in the billiard parlor of the West
hotel on November 25.
DIR. w. B. Murray, who was on the
stand yesterday afternoon continued
his testimony. In his cross examina-
tion the prosecution was aided by two
medical men.
The point at issue was whether a
man wounded as Day was-his sub
clavicular artery completely severed
could live six or eight minutes and
whether being on his feet when the
wound was made, could stand ten min
utes.
DR.. Murray contended that he could,
by automatous impulse. He reiterated
that while the fatal wound could have
been produced by the blade of the
knife in evidence the scalp wound
could not

ilton was not in this scuff1e, but was
coming toward the crowd. While he
was approaching Day staggered out of
the crowd mortally wounded.
May Mcintosh, a tall, handsome
young woman, was questioned concern
ing any knife that Day might have car

a long time and shared his secrets.

Please state the circumstances"
The woman hesitated, turned pale and
began to cry. She was questioned pri-
vately by the court who announced
that she was not compelled to make
further disclosures as the law did not
require her to incriminate herself.
Guy S. Garfield. a reporter, said that
Hamilton never owned such a knife

The development of yesterday in the
ccuncilmanic muddle was the birth
of a sentiment favorable to the oplitera-
ton of party lines, and selection OF
city officers with view to fitness and
not party service. 1t was talked OF
pretty generally, but it must be adj
mftted that the sponsors of the plan
are not members of council. Several
methods were suggested, the most pop
ular being the assemblage of a like
number of Democrats and Republicans,
for the purpose of agreeing upon a
slate. There are members of council
who privately endorse this scheme
but it is doubtful if there are suffi-
cient to make it possible to find solu-
ton in this direction.
All sorts OF rumors were in circu-
lation yesterday, and there was con-
siderable comment upon the attitude of
the insurgents, and particularly of the
Democratic insurgents, whose action
was entirely unexpected.
. There is no certainty about any Of
flee within the gift of council, with the
possible exception of a place on the
Board of Public Works, which will be
given to Henry Schmulbach. Mr.
Schmulbach appears to hold a winning
hand i'll the game, and his person
atty and influence is the present dis
turbing factor in the situation. 10y
atty to him is the motive which moves
the Democratic insurgents, and oppo-
siCion to him is. the slogan of the Re-
publican insurgents. The regular Re-
publicans have tacitly endorsed him,
and with the aid of Democratic in
surgents, will elect him unless the un-
expected happens.
The Republican insurgents yesterday
made public the fact that they offered
to submit the points in dispute between
them and the regulars to a committee
composed of such distinguished Repub-
licans as John Frew, Judge H. c. Her.
vey, j. n. Vance, G. A. Robinson and
Hon. N. E. Whitaker. The offer was de-
clined.

certain candidates. Yesterday he said
he was offered the secretaryship of
the gas board, and the clerkship of the
Board of Public Works, and declined
both. He would not accept an office if
rendered to him.
Councilman Jess Shafer, referring to
an article in the Pitts5urg Dispatch Of
yesterday morning. which classed him
among the Democratic members of
Council who might vote with the Re-
publicans in the present mix-up, said:
I am straight-out Democrat. and
propose to vote with my party. The
