Aside from the geographical fitness
of Mr.. Shirley's candidacy, he is splen-

treasurer. He is a banker, prominent
in the commercial circles of Western
Minnesota and a member of the Bank

Mr.. Shirley is forty years old. He
was born in Norway, Oct. 10, 1852 His
parents came to America in 1869, set
Ting on a farm near Ridgeway, Win

Shirley grew to manhood, dividing his
time between work on his fathers
farm and his studies in the common
schools of the country district.
In the spring of 1879 he came to
Minnesota; cast his lot with the pio-
neers who were rapidly settling the
central western portion of the state,
and took a farm in the western portion
of Otter Tail county He followed
farming exclusively for nine years and

HE WANTS CHANGE OF
VENUE TO MINNEAPOLIS
Man Enioined From Killing His Wife
Claims to BE q Resident Of
Hennepin County.

Frederick Mcconnell, whom Judge
Kelly enjoined Friday from killing his
wife, because she sued for a divorce,
yesterday through his attorneys, Smith
& Smith, of Minneapolis, petitioned the
district court to grant a change Of
venue. The attorneys failed to file the
petition with the clerk Of the court.
and Judge Kelly continued the case
until tomorrow to give them an OPP
portunity to do so.
The motion Of the plaintiff, that Mr..
Mcconnell be restrained from violence
and that he be required to pay Mrs.
Mcconnell 500 at once, and SIS weekly
during the divorce litigation, was to
have been heard by Judge Kelly yes
terday, but when the defendant asked
for a change of venue on the ground
that he is a resident of Hennepin
county, the case was continued until
Monday.
Judge Kelly will Monday grant the
petition as he has no jurisdiction in
the case, IS the defendant is a resi-
dent of Hennepin county.
Mrs. Mcconnell does not ask for an
absolute divorce, contending that this
would please her husband, who, it is
alleged, is anxious to marry again.

Henry Johns will probably oppose
Representative James r. Hickey for
the legislative seat to which the Fourth
ward is entitled and which Mr.. Hickey
has filed for one term with credit to
himself and his constituency. Mr.
Johns filed yesterday afternoon for the
Republican nomination, which seemed
to be about to go by default. He will
probably have no opposition for the
nomination. The same thing seems
true of Hickeys candidacy. The Dem
ocracy of the district is behind Mr.
Hickey, and with his own party are
arrayed scores of prominent and infiu-
entail Republicans, who7appreciate the
kind of legislative service Mr.. Hickey
rendered as the representative of one
of the most important districts in the
state. 81
