BEST "W0NDERLAND" YET
THE N. P.'s NEW PUBLICATION OUT
It's a Work of Art and Interest,"
ing From Cover to
Cover. a..

In its wonderland" for 1902 the Northern
Pacific passenger department presents a book
OF the most intense interest, only to the
lover Of scientific beauty, but to the practical
seekers for new homes business openings.
From year to year as new 'Wonderlands''
nave come from the press, public curiosity
has been piqued to what field to con-
quer could be discovered by the camera and
the writer in Northern Pacific territory to
make the succeeding years book good as
its predecessor.
The fact that each publication has ex-
celled the long list of "Wcnderlands," in
both interest and attractiveness, is a strik-
ing revelation Of the opportunities which vet
await the pen and brush in the great west,
with the development of which the Northern
Pacific has played such an important part.
In bringing the reading public in close
touch with the historic and picturesque side
of western life which preceded the present
wonderful era, Olin D. Wheeer's narrative
does for Montana what Mark Twain s
'Roughing IT, did for the southwestern min
ing country
The cover design and chapter headings by
Alfred LEM, the Well-known New York illus
TRAITOR, are works of art. They are engraved
from modelled designs in plastiQue, designed
to fit the text.
Among the more Interesting chapters is
that on the "Moraine Of the Glacier" de-
ScrlptlVe. OF the lake park region or Mime
sofa, noted the country over for it's beautiful,
diversified lake scenery and fine fishing.
Nearly one-third of the book is devoted to
ming in Montana, which dates from the
early sixties. Old mining days, and Incl
dents Of the time, most dramatic, many Of
them, are portrayed with photographs of old
time camps.
Another chapter-''Two Thousand Miles
Through Story Lapd''-describes in gen
eral way the country lying along the North
ern Pacific line from Minneapolis to Puget
Sound.
Another chapter is devoted exclusively To
the Cheyenne tribe of Indians. Mr.. Wheeler
tells therein of his experiences among these
interesting Indians in 1901. n
The concluding chapters are devoted to
the Yellowstone Park, its geysers, canons and
wild animals. Puget Sound and Alaska.
The beauty spots in and about Minneap-
oils, st. Paul and the other hustling cities
through to the coast are profusely illustrated.
The arrangement and make up of the book
throughout are most artistic and the collec-
ton of matter and pictures shows the re-
suit Of painstaking, Intelligent research. APP
parently no expense has been spared to make
the book accurate and attractive and the
person who examines it is led on to read
it through entirely unconscious of the fact
that the publication has an advertising mis-

DAMP, DIRTY CELL
Archie Freeman More Than Willing
to Return Home.
HE'S NOW IN JAIL IN OLD MEXICO
A Month Required to Get Papers and
He May Die in the Mean
time

Special to The Journal.
Menominee, Mich, Feb. 2e.-SheriR
Stiles arrived to-day from Mexico, where
he went to get Archie V. Freeman, the
former embezzler and bail jumper. He
came, however, without his man, as the
necessary formalities Of the Mexican gov
eminent will require about thirty days,
and the prisoner cannot be brought back
until they are completed. Stiles says that
Freeman is completely subdued and will
ing and anxious to get out of the Mexican
jail and be brought back to this country.
He says the man is now confined in a
damp, dirty cell in the Vera Cruz Jail,
with nothing to sleep on but the hard
stones of the floor. His diet consists Of
an allowance Of rice and a sort of oil,
and as the prisoner has no money he can
get nothing better, and the sheriff au
vises that some be sent him from here
if the authorities want to get him back
alive. ..
Yellow fever is raging in Vera Cruz
and if Freeman is not removed to some
other city, Stiles says there is little hope
Of his escaping the disease.
When he was arrested he owed board
bill Of 1888 at the hotel where he had been
stopping, and supposed this was the
charge he would have to answer. If he
him in the United States, people who
know him we'll here say he would never
have been taken alive.
He was working on the docks at the
time common laborer, and once re-
marked to one of his fellow workmen
that he thought he would jump into the
gulf and end his troubles.
When asked if he did not want to be
removed to Orizaba, as he might die in
Vera Cruz, he said that made little differ
ence to him. as his troubles would then
be ended

RAPED THE JURY
Judge Pond Says Things About the
Hamilton Verdict.
ANOTHER TRIAL IS GRANTED
The Court Says the Verdict Was
a Disgrace to the
Jury.

Charles Hamilton, convicted recently of
keeping an opium joint, has been granted
new trial by order of Judge Pond of the
district court.
The announcement came as a surprise
at the courthouse. but in itself was much
less of a surprise than the roast which
the court gave the jury in setting forth
his reasons for granting the motion for
a new trial.
He said that the verdict had been rem
dered because of Hamilton's general repu-
tation and that the testimony had not
been sufficient to warrant it, having con-
sisted chiefly Of that of one Jones, a self
confessed perjurer. Closing, the judge
said
The verdict is a disgrace to the jury sys-
tenn and a burning disgrace to the jury which
rendered it.
1t will be remembered that the witness,
Jones, above referred to, admitted
that his testimony in the district court
did not agree with that he had given In
the municipal court at the preliminary
hearing, and that he was promptly ar
rested on a charge Of perjury at the
close of his testsimony.

NO ONE TO FIGHT
Peddler Arrested in DeIano Finds No
ODpOnent in Court.

Albert Goldstein. committed TO Jail for
peddaiEg in the village o. Delano without
license was ready to begin vigorous
fight but found no one to oppose him. He
will probably regain his liberty.
Delano has a village ordinance which
provides that any nonresident of the
county must secure license at S. per day
for peddling. Goldstein neglected or re-
fused to get license. He was arrested
and tried before a local justice who or
dered him imprisoned in the Hennepin
county Jail. Goldstein announced his in
tention Of smashing the ordinance. He
began habeas corpus proceedings. The
writ was made returnable before Judge
MCGEE this morning, but no one appeared
to represent Delane. A telephone mes.
sage elected the reply that Delano did not
intend to appear The assumption is that
having gotten rid of the peddler the COM
munity is Indifferent as to his future.
knocks Out the Ordinance.
Later Judge MCGEE ordered the release
Of Mr.. GOldstein. The court holds that
the ordinance under. which Goldstein was
arrested is void, being unreasonable, IL
legal and in restraint Of trade.

ROADS IN HENNEPIN
The First County Good Roads Asso-
citation Is Formed.
FARMERS BACK THE MOVEMENT
They VIII Start Il Propa ganda for
Wide Tires and Road Inn
prOvements.

Over score of well known farmers at
the courthouse yesterday ! organized
the first good roads association in the
county. The meeting was the result OF
missionary work among the farmers by
w. S. ChoWen, but there was SO much en-
thusiasm and the time appeared to be so
opportune for organizing that 1t was de-
icided to form an association with all pos
sible dispatch. A committee consisting OF
Paris Reidhead of Crystal Lake; Charles
Ghostley of Hassan, and Charles Bailiff
Of Bloomington, was directed to prepare
plans. Another committee was directed
to drum up attendance for the next meet
ing, when the organization will be per-
fected
One of the objects will be to educate
the farmers and village officers as to the
care and Improvement of country roads.
They will be encouraged to use wide-tired
wagons and to avoid making ruts. 1t is
known that even on nicely macadamized
road, certain class of farmers, If they
can find a track, will stick to it and do all
they can to make rut.
Many rural officials entrusted with the
work are absolutely ignorant of the hrst
principles of roadmaking, and education
along these lines is necessary. BY diffus-
ing general information regarding road
making, by impressing every citizen with
the great value of good roads and by ia
vorable legislation; the new association
hopes in time to have every road in the
county boulevard

MAY AGREE ON RATES
Assistance Of Railroad and Ware-
house Commission May Not

1t looks now as if the railroads and the
jobbers Of the northwest would agree
upon terminal rates among themselves,
without further assistance Of the rail
road and warehouse commission.
Monday a committee of jobbers from
Grand Forks and Wahpeton, N. D., and
Crookston, Fergus Falls and st. Cloud,
Mimi, met in the Office Of General Traf-
fic Manager Clarke of the Great Northern

Of an understanding, the nature Of which
Is not to be divulged, at least at present.
Yesterday the frailway and warehouse
commission announced that the whole
question would come up for set
Element March before that body.
Whether the assertion from the jobbers
and railroads that they have agreed will
be sufficient or whether the commission
will ask for details remains to be seen.
If the former obtains, then the commits
sion will certainly be open to criticism
from the jobbers Of the southern part Of
the state for Withholding information
which might be to their benefit to know
The commission will probably make the
agreement public, which is not likely to
please the railroads.

MOVE THE CREMATORY
The Health Board May Deem the
Plan Advisable,

The proposed garbage transer point at
Aldrich avenue and First avenue will
be abandoned and the health department
will now turn its attention to the matter
of removing the garbage crematory to
some unobjectionable site nearer the CEN
ter Of the city. The board decided yes
terday that the directors to the location
of the garbage transfer at the proposed
site were too numerous and persistent to
ignore. and voted to postpone any fur
Their action in the matter. 1t then turned
to the consideration of the crematory
removal scheme. Health Commissioner
Hall reported that it would cost about
$4,000 to move the incinerators to another
location. The present building cost 81, 800.
Alderman Lane offered to sell the board
for crematory purposes plot of land on
Division street Sc, between Fifth and
Sixth avenue, for $4,000 The site OF
the present East Side pumping station
on Hennepin island was also discussed.
1t is quite certain, however, that the flour
mill interests will never agree to this
site. It is equally certain that it will be
very difficult task to find central
location anywhere in the city that will
not inspire determined opposition from
some source.

The Whole Bunch of Cases Goes Ove1
the Term,

All the eleven cases against Sheriff Phil
T. Megaarden were continued until the
April term by Judge Pond this morning
When County Attorney Boardman stated
that the cases would be continued by con-
sent of both parties, Judge Steele OBJ
jected strongly. While he had no 1nten
tion of opposing a continuance, he did
not want the record to show that he had
asked for it or favored it. .....-
MI. Boardman, somewhat nettled, re-
torted that the cases could stand. Judge
Pond then appeared with oil for the
troubled waters, but Judge Steele would
not consent to have the cases continued.
The county attorney moved, however, that
all the Indictments be continued, and
then, as the counsel for Mr.. Megaarden
did not oppose. the motion was granted.

warrant for Eastman's arrest charging
him with assault and battery Allbridge
pleaded not guilty in the police court this
morning and was tried and given S. or
five days. He had lots OF troubles he
wanted to tell the court about and it was
with difficulty that he could be confined to
the case. When asked If he hit Eastman
he replied that he had, but that he had
had great provocation. Eastman had been
very mean to him, he said. While his
head was turned Eastman had dropped a
screw down the back of his, Allbridges
neck. That wasn't all, either. He had
borrowed some of Allbridge's tobacco and
then had said that it was of poor quail
ty. Eastman, he said, moreover, was al
ways giving him the horse laugh on one
preteAt or another and he felt much out
ragged. He might have passed all the rest
but when he felt the cold steel screw go
down the back of his neck he felt that
the time for action was at hand and ne
