Mr.. Anderson lmpatIent.

Sam Anderson, former county attorney
OF Ramsey county, had a wordy conflict
with County Attorney F. H. Boardman
this morning over the trial Of the case
against Timothy Scanlon. He demanded
trial at once or some definite statement
as to when the case would come to
trial.
Well, he'll have trial. He don't need
70 worry about that interposed Mr.
Boardman.
Yes, Wen have judgment day, some
time retorted Mr.. Anderson sharply:
The county attorney explained that
there were several cases ahead of the
Scanlon case and that he was informed
that a large part of the delay was due to
the unwillingness Of the defense to come
to trial. !

COURT NEWS
JAILED FOR CONTEMPT

The Law intervenes Between Charles A.
Anderson and Ills Wife.
Charles A. Anderson was :: adjudged
guilty Of contempt Of court by Judge Pond
this morning and ordered committed to
the county Jail for sixty days.
Some time ago Anderson was directed
to pay alimony to his wife, Dolly S.
Anderson, and to remain away from her
place Of abode. He disregarded both
orders and not only came to the woman
home, but assaulted her.
Mrs. Anderson was greatly agitated in
court this morning and begged that the
fellow be not sent to Jail. She is plainly
very much in fear Of the man and believes
that he will eventually wreak his ven
geance on her and her defenseless chill
dren.
Anderson had nothing to say in the
courtroom and listened to the proceedings
in sur]y silence

Grace Foster, Dressmaker, in Ill
Health Takes Her Own
Life. +"
Pours Kerosene Upon Her Clothes
and Applies. Lighted Match
Two Other Casualties.

While in delirium brought on by sick
ness and dependency, Miss Grace Foster,
a seamstress residing at 2o29 Clinton ave-
nue. S, saturated her clothing with kero-
sene oil and then applied a lighted match.
Her father made a heroic effort to ex-
t1ngulsh the flames but was unable to do
so before the girl was fatally burned. She
died a few minutes after starting the fire.
Miss "a Foster had been i'll for several
months and was growing worse Her
father sat up with her Friday and Satur
day nights, and early Sunday morning fell
asleep for a moment by her bedside. She
quietly slipped out of the room and went
to the kitchen where she found a can Of oil
and saturated her clothing from head to
foot Her father awoke and heard her In
the kitchen. He reached the door just
as she was about to apply the lighted
match. He called to her to stop, but she
applied the match to her clothing and in
an instant was mass of flames.
!: Her father gathered some blankets and
tried to extinguish the flames, but the
clothing was SO completely saturated with
the oil that it was impossible for him to
do so. The girl died In his arms while
he was trying to save her. He was badly
burned.
Miss Foster was II years Of age and
was employed in fashionable down town
dressmakiEg establishment. She had
suffered 1TOIn asthma Tor several years
and the physicians gave her no hope for
| recovery. Recently her malady reached
/ such, a stage that she was compelled to
give up her. employment. and from that
time she talked of seif-destruction.

TAKEN FOR A PUG"
A Former Experience Of Happy
Ward in MINNEAPOLIS.

Theodore Hays, of the Bijou theater,
tells a good story on Happy Ward, of the
team of Ward & Vokes, who are doing
9, wholesale business in comedy at the
Bijou this week.
Happy Ward,'' said Mr. Hays, is
an all-'round athlete and he puts in much
of his leisure time, developing his muscle.
Several years ago when there was gym
nasium above the Bijou, Ward made the
place his headquarters when the show
wasn't on. Dan Creedon was about to go
against another pug in Minneapolis at the
time, and as Ward, who is an exceptionally
we'll built man, had something of the ap-
pearance of Creedon, jokingly told the
other frequenters of the gymnasium that
Ward was the fighter.
Every time he came in after that some
Of the ambitious young athletes about the
place would begin to patronize Ward.
They would stand about him in adnniring
groups and comment on his shape until
Ward became very self conscious and be-
gan to ask himself why he was attracting
so much attention.
lone day member of the club came up
to him and asked him if he was to fight at
the same weight as when he fought So
and-so' in Louisville. Ward took the mat
ter as a joke until the fellow began to feel
Of his muscle, and then he refused to be
joshed' any more for he supposed he was
being Kidded.' He just squared off and
the inquisitive party had all the curiosity
knocked out of him in less time than it
takes to tell It, Afterward Ward came to
me and explained that the gang took him

Rev. John B. Helwig, pastor Of the

must then seek it's tenth pastor since
the church was organized forty-nine
years ago.
Mr.. Helwig has proved most acceptable
to his people. He has made himself
fertile source of strength and prosperity
for the First church. But the health of
his family has suffered severely from the
climate here, so invigorating to the ma
jority of newcomers. Soon after his ar
rival here he was bereaved Of daughter.
During all the five years Mrs. Helwig has
been a sufferer from rheumatism and
asthma. And recently the pastor himself
was taken i'll, although he is now able to
be about
BY returning to Ohio, where all of his
previous pastorates were passed, he hopes
to find a more congenial climate. He will
go to Bellefontaine, the home Of Mrs.
Helwig's relatives. But he has not yet
considered any proposals from Ohio pull
pits. For some months to come he will
seek rest and improved health. :
After announcing his intentions to the
congregation he must call a meeting of the
church session and then q Congregations
meeting. If his retirement is accepted
by both of these bodies, final action will
be taken by the presbytery.

Ey Saturday morning at the latest, the
first new anthracite to leave the mines
since the striking miners resumed work
will reach Minneapolis. This is quick
work. Since the resumption OF mining
there has been not a little quiet rivalry
among the two city fuel companies for the
honor Of being the first to bring in new
coal. Late Yesterday afternoon the
Holmes & McCaughey company received
a telegram announcing that it's first cargo
of coal had reached Duluth and was being
unloaded at the Lehigh docks. Cars for
Minneapolis were loaded out yesterday
afternoon and this morning and it is
probable that this first new anthracite will
make it's debut here tomorrow. just
week out from Buffalo. The Northwest
ern Fuel company will be a close second.

Along with the announcement OF the

Hard coal will be SO the ton. 1t has been

at the mine, that retailers had been

RAILROAD RUMBLES
ARRANGING DETAILS
Union Pacific and c., M. g. st. p. Officials
Meet in Omaha.

Union Pacific and c., M. g. ST. p. Officials
Meet In Omaha.
Omaha, Neb., Oct. 30.-An important
meeting of railroad officials was held here
yesterday at Union Pacific headquarters.
Present were: J. c. Stubs of Chicago.
traffic director Of the Hartman lines; A.
j. Earring, president; A. G. Bird, vice
president; F. A. Miller, general passenger
agent, and J. N. Barr, general superin-
tendent of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St.
Paul; Horace G.. Burt, president; e. l..
Lomax, general passenger agent; J. A.
Munroe, general freight traffic manager,
and William A. Kelley, general solicitor
for the Union Pacific.
The object Of the conference was to fix
passenger schedules for the Union Pacific
and the Milwa ukee under the provisions
of the new traffic agreement recently en-
tered into by the two roads.
It was announced that the St. Paul had
not yet decided to run through trains tc
the coast over the Union Pacific. The vol
ume of traffic will be the determining fac
tor in this problem. If the road puts on
through passenger trains it means an ex-
tensive enlargement Of the service from
Omaha to Chicago and it is regarded a.
questionable whether the traffic is suf-
ficient to justify this.
