NELSON BOYS
PLEAD FOR LIFE
Case of the 0watonna Murderers
Comes Before the Supreme
Court.
Emphasis Laid on Judge Buckham's
Refusal to Grant Change Of
Venue.

Attorneys for the Nelson boys of
Owatonna, under sentence of death
for the murder Of Henry Krier, made
a vigorous plea for a new trial before
uel Lord, Of .Kasson, and Harlan e,
Leach, of sOwatonna, presented the
case. They made a strong point OF
the refusal of Judge Buckham to
grant a change of venue, urging that
in the intlamed state of public senti-
ment the boys did not get a fair trial
in Owatonna. The testimony of SUIT
ton and of the two girls, Jasperson
and Slinsog, was also pulled to pieces,
and shown to be conflicting.
The state was represented by S. T.
Littleton. the county attorney, and w:
F. Sawyer. Attorney General Douglas
assisted them in an advisory capacity.

DO THEY RAIN DOWN..
Prof. Nachtrieb Says Worms May,
but More Frequently They
Crawl Up.
The Old Question Revived by Let
ter from a Perplexed
Observer.

Angle worms just rain down, says
Nellie B. of Redfeld, IS. D.. in let
ter to r h e .Isousr$na L. Angle
worms crawl UP, says Henry F. Nacht-
rieb, professor Of zoology at the state
university. Yet if the angle worms
didn't rain n down, insists Nellie B.,
whose name is something else, how,
for mercy sakes alive how did they
possibly get into the paid?
1t happened this way, writes Miss
Nellie: lived in Amboy. Wash,
a year, and it rained about nine
months out of that year. And many
is the time / have set pail or dish
ing, and before that pail was full of
water there would be half a dozen or
so angle worms in it. And there was
not a thing near that they could crawl
or fall off from into the pail.
Nov, where did they come from,
and how did they get into the pail
It's a great puzzle to me; yet this is
and they say seeing is believing. Be
sides, my aunt, who has always lived
in Washington, believes they rain
down.
Miss Nellie admits, however, that
her mother does not agree with her
and the aunt as to the origin of earth
worms.
Professor Nachtrieb takes a judi
cious stand halfway between mama
and auntie. Says he: Sometimes
angle worms rain down, as her aunt
believes, but usually they don't, as her
mother insists. When a tornado comes
along and scoops up the contents OF
a pool of water, the wind may carry
away angle worms or tadpoles or fish
or anything else that happens to be
in the water, just as a tornado may
pick up mule If he's standing about
carelessly. Angle worms, being light
er than the mule, may be carried far
! ther, and may seem to rain down
in another county.
"Still, tornadoes are so rare in
Washington that should say, beg.
ging Miss Nellie's pardon, that he1
charming eyes deceived her, and that
the angle worms, which are really
skilful climbers, climbed up from the
earth into the pan or pail. These
worms are born of eggs in the earth
and they seldom try to fly"

issue A GRAVE ONE|
Merger Motion Now Pending Is
More Important Than at First
Supposed.
The Whole Question Of Jurisdiction
Has Been Raised by the
Defense.

More depends on the motion now
pending before the supreme court in
the states merger case than at first
appeared.
The whole question Of jurisdiction
is raised by the defense, which OBJ
jected to an early hearing of the case,
and gave notice that it, would move
the dismissal of the appeal on the
ground thatsit does not come properly
before the supreme court The rule
requires that three weeks notice of
such a motion be given, but the mer-
ger attorneys have brought it up in
this way without any notice at all.
IF the supreme court refuses to take
jurisdiction in the case, it will be on
the ground that no institutional ques-
ton is involved. If a constitutional
question is not involved, then the state
has no means of suing for the en-
forcement of a state law against con-
Article ". of the federal constitution
says: Full faith and credit shall be
given in each state to the public acts,
records and judicial proceedings of
every other state" Counsel for the
state in the merger case claim that
under this guarantee the laws of Min
nesota cannot be broken by a con-
spiracy formed in another state. I'm
der this clause of the constitution they
base their appeal to the supreme
court, which only takes jurisdiction
where constitutional questions are in
volved.
If the supreme court decides that
no constitutional question is involved,
that will end the states case so far as
enlargement of the state anti-merger
| laws IS concerned. The state can only
bring the case before the circuit court
of appeals on the ground that the
state has right to sue for the en-
forcement Of the Sherman antitrust
law. The merger counsel will, of
course, deny this right and it may
also be refused by the court on the
ground that the federal government
has already brought a suit on the
same grounds. But if the court of APP
peals does take jurisdiction, the
chances of the state will be bright
as the same court has already decided
the merger is a violation of the anti
! trust act.
Counsel for the state believe that
the supreme court has jurisdiction in
the case, and that the state has a
right somewhere to prevent the vio-
lation of state laws by foreign cor
poration. The brief wired to Wash
tington so states, and a Favorable de-
cision from the court is hoped for
next week.

THE DOCTOR FAILED
Gould Not Cure a Young Woman Of
Stomach Trouble.

The. extract from a letter which is
printed below is a sad commentary
upon the. many failures which occur
In medical practice. The case is that
of niece Of Mr.. Joseph Bischoff, II
Wall street, New York city. He writes
as follows:
My niece is nineteen years old and
she got quite sick from stomach
trouble. She visited her physician
four or five times, and he tried differ
ent prescriptions. I heard of the case
and brought over half of one Of your
fifty-cent bottles, which was all had
left. She took it all, but was COM
pletely we'll before it was used up"
The remedy which accomplished
such astonishing results was Chase s
Dyspepsia Cure, and the above letter
was written to the manufacturers. 1t
is a positive fact that this remedy will
cure any case Of Dyspepsia or other
stomach trouble. It is prepared in
| LIQUID form and reaches the seat of
| trouble at once. If you suffer from an
attack of indigestion, sour stomach,
! heartburn, nervousness, loss of appe-
tite, or your breath unpleasant, take
just one dose of Chase's Dyspepsia
Cure and pronounce Judgment upon
| it. Those who have taken pills and
tablets, to their disappointment, can
| feel certain that this incompatible
remedy will make them well. For
