!. A WINE ROOM TEST
McGregor's Conviction the First in
der the Jones Ordinance.
HIS ATTORNEY TO CARRY IT UP
An Appeal Also Promised In the Case
Involving the Sunday
Ordinance.

Two appeals to the supreme court are
promised as a result of the conviction Of
}. J. McGregor on two charges in the
municipal court to-day. One case will
afford the first test ever given to the
Jones Wineroom ordinance. The other
has to do with the authority Of the munic-
1pal Judge in ordering an arrest from the
bench.
The conviction in the W1neroom case Is
the first since the law went into effect Re-
peated efforts have been made by the city
attorneNto have the police make complaint
against violators of the ordinance, but
the requests have been refused. Last week
McGregor was convicted of embezzling
money from one Patterson. The evidence
In the trial revealed the character of Nc
Gregor's place and at the request Of Judge
Dickinson a complaint was made by
Lieut.. Sinclair of the central police sta
tion.
Three witnesses testified as to the char
acter of the place. McGregor was found
guilty and given $1O0 or 80 days. A. P.
Loomis, for the defense, at once objected
and notified the court that he would take
an appeal to the supreme court in order
that there might be definite underst and
ing as to what does and what does not
constitute wineroom under the law.
When the Sunday ordinance case was
called. the attorney for the defense was
again ready with an objection. Before
testimony was introduced, he gave formal
notice that the defendant objected on the
ground that no writ ten or sworn complaint
had been made or filed against the de-
PENDANT In the action and that the court
had exceeded its authority in ordering the
defendants arrest and in compelling him
to enter a plea without first having a
written or sworn complaint made against
him. The statutes were read by Judge
Holt Mr.. LOOMS questioned their con-
stitutionality and says he will not accept
the decision until the supreme court has
handed down an opinion.
In reply to the remark of the Judge that
a decision had already been reached he
said that he would not rest until there
had been another.
McGregor was found guilty and SEN
fenced $50 or sixty days. He asked a
twenty days stay, which was granted him,
but he was required to put up $3.50 bond
He is already under heavy bail pending
the appeal from the sentence of embezzle-
ment.

one of the young men finally acknowledged
this in conceding that as the girls had

BANE OF THE WORK
The Inemciency Of Librarians Hurts
Library Progress,
SAYS MISS MARVIN OF WISCONSIN
She Is Here to Confer With Miss
a Baldwin Of Minnesota Library
Commi ssiOn.

Miss Marvin Of the Wisconsin state
library commission spent Tuesday and
Wednesday in Minneapolis in conference
with Miss Clara Baldwin of the Minnesota
commission, in regard to the cooperative
work of the commissions. Miss Baldwin
has the library handbook, which will be
used by several states, almost ready for
the printer, and this was gone over, as
we'll as the book lists, which in the CO.
operative scheme Wisconsin is to supply
to the states uniting in the plan.
: Miss Marvin said to a Journal repre-
sentative that the chief aims of the work
at present are to secure trained librarians
and good books. The carefully compiled
book lists are the means employed to fur
Their the .latter purpose. For the former
every spur is being applied to the library
boards and librarians to induce them to
help in the matter Of securing training
for library employees. The goal which the
commission has in mind is a method oil
certification for Librarians, similar to that
required of teachers. This will be to the
advantage of the competent librarians, as
the raising of standards for the work Will
inevitably be followed by Increased sal
aries The idea of the commission Is that
the librarians in the smaller towns should
receive salaries corresponding to the
grade teachers of the same places, and In
the larger towns the librarians salaries
should correspond toathose of the school
principals. Any increase in salaries is
step in advance, for boards will look for
an equivalent in competent service.
Definite steps to- aid in raising the
standards of library work have been
taken by the state federation of womenss
clubs. At it's last convention it appointed
a committee to inquire into the quaHti-
cation of librarians. This committee IS
expected to investigate existing condl-
lions and to recommend plans for I'M
provements The ineficiency of librarians
is the bane of library work In all OF the
smaller towns and villages.
The travelling library system in which
Wisconsin takes the lead, continues TO
flourish, and is especially prosperous ana
growing in it's German department. An
exchange system of German books has
been inaugurated among the villages.
Each pays the value of one travelling
library and has in turn the reading of all
the German libraries. Syllabi TOR STUDY
are now being prepared and supplied Win
the general travelling libraries, each OF
which has group of related books.

The plays for the midwinter perform
ance are Lies ROmanesques'' by Edmund
Rostand and "The Old Musician" one of
Felix Morris adaptations from the
French. Fortunately these unite the
highest literary qualities with practical
produced with complete success on the
professional stage and still their demands
are not beyond the powers Of well trained,

Every detail of the performance has
been carefully studied out by the members
of the casts under the guidance Of Clayton
D. Gilbert, dramatic director, and DR..
Richard Burton, faculty adviser of the
club. Lies Romanesques" belongs to any
period in which sentimentality and pic

KILLED IN A MINE
Andrew FOrsberg Formerly Well
Known In Minneapolis


Andrew Forsberg. chief mining engineer
of the Treadwell Gold Mining company,
and formerly well known resident OF
Minneapolis, was accidentally killed in
mine shaft on Douglas island, Alaska,
Jan. -. News of the death reached Min
neapolis yesterday. He did not return to
the party on the evening of Jan. IL and it
was thought that he had changed his shift.
His continued absence, however, caused a
search to be made and or Monday his body
was found in chute Of the Mexican mine
with the head crushed in. No one was
near when the accident occurred.
The deceased was 38 years old. When
a young man he attended Gustavus Adolf
plus college at St. Peter and was gradu-
ated in 1886. He also received a theo-
logical education, but selected mining as
his work. He had been on Douglas island
since 1898. On Christmas morning, 1899,
he delivered the first Swedish sermon in
alaska, and, being encouraged by the at
tendance and interest, continued the work
until year ago when a pastor was called.
Mr.. Forsberg IS survived by wife and
two children.

bertha Kunz Baker to Read Here on
February Is.
Dramatic recitals are very popular with
the clientele of the Teachers Club course
and the next ent Entertainment is one That
has been looked forward to with much
pleasure. On Saturday evening, Feb. 10,
Mrs. Bertha Kunz Baker will give the
only reading in this years course. Her
program will be "Armgart" by George
Eliot and .'Nance Oldfeld." "Armgart IS
regarded as the strongest piece OF work
undertaken by Mrs. Baker, although her
repertory contains many of the finest
things in classical and current literature.
It is a short dramatic work that is com
paratively little known except to scholars,
but it is a mast er-piece with which all
will welcome an acquaintance. OF the
sprightly charm of *:Nance Oldfield'' it is
unnecessary to speak. The two will make
an effectively contrasted performance.
Last year Mrs. Baker was chosen for
the complimentary entertainment Of the
club. She came complete stranger to
nearly all of her audience, but her con-
quest was complete and immediate. There
was a spontaneous and universal request
for her return and she was Immediately

CONCERTS In PARKS;
Local Musicians Oppose the Impor-
tation of Foreign Bands.
A REGULAR CAMPAIGN PLANNED
After Next Season They Hope to
Restrict Such Work to Lo-
cal Players.

Minneapolis musicians have under way
well-Organized plan for free music in
the public parks given by resident mu
sicians, as against concerts by outside
bands, at one park, for an admission fee.
The effort is being directed by the, Min
neapolis Musicians Association and the
plan is based upon the methods in vogue
in other cities. In January the associa-
ton mailed to many Of the cities of the
country letters of inquiry. These asked
whether summer concerts were given in
the public parks, at how many parks con-
certs were given, how frequently, how
many bands and musicians were employed,
to what extent resident musicians were
employed, whether the concerts were free,
the average salary paid pei man. the sum
expended by the city each season, how the
concerts were supported and whether they
were we'll attended.
Already a number of replies have been
received, and, almost without exception,
both large and small cities say that con-
certs are free and by resident musicians.
AS an example of these replies, that from
Cleveland says Cleveland has free con-
certs in five public parks once or twice a
week and on Sunday. There are four
bands and from twenty-five to thirty men
in each band, all of them resident mu-
sicians The concerts in Cleveland are
supported by private subscription and the
street railway companies. In this Cleye-
land is an exception as in nearly all the
other cities the city governments foot
the bills.
The Plan of Procedure.
When further information has been OBJ
tanned the Minneapolis Musicians associ-
alton will seek the aid Of the Trades and
Labor Council and send tabulated infor-
nation with a statement of the situation
in Minneapolis as compared with condi-
lions in other cities to every labor union
in the city with this pertinent query:
O..................
Are you in favor of free music !:
in the public parks by bands COM !:
posed of resident musicians?
o............ ......5....5......... q
The association does not doubt that the
answer will be unanimous affirmative.
The musicians will then take the mat ter
up with the Commercial club, the city
council and the park board, lin the hope of
securing prompt and liberal Endorsement
of their plan.
Another Method Possible.
In case the desired results are not thus
obtained, many of the musicians feel that
they have a more potent, though. perhaps,
less desirable method of attacking the
problem, and that is through the law It
lis contended that the park board has no
legal right to make the arrangement it
does for concerts at Harriet or to allow
the charge Of fees for admission to the
same.
The movement is not expected to affect
the arrangement with the Royal Italian
band for summer.
In suppt } of their plan the musicians
urge that It's realization means the en-
| ployment of the many talented musicians
to a greater extent than heretofore the
drawing of other musicians to the city,
| and, best of all, good music for the
masses.
