RUNGE'S DEFENSE OPENS
His Attorney Lays Strong Emphasis
on the Intent of His
g.. Client. ..

All the testimony of the state against
Lewis A. Runge has been introduced and
the defense is having its inning. Victor J..
WEIGH attorney for Mr.. Runge; made his
opening statement to the jury yesterday
afternoon and in a measure outlined the
defense. The attorney dwelt upon the
honorable record of his client in Mime
apolis for the last thirty years and gave
his version Of the discrepancies occur
ring between the official count and the
actual ballots cast in the fourteenth pre-
cinct Of the fourth ward. These might
have happened. he contended, in a num-
Der of ways. The clerks might have made
mistakes, Mr.. Runge might have misread
them on account Of his WEAKNESS and en-
tirely without intention, and many other
rational explanations We're suggested.
| ThesMefendants took. the stand in his, own
behalf iand, testified that as far as he
knew he had read every ballot correctly
He told Of several mistakes made by the
clerks in keeping tally and implied that
the discrepancies might have been due
| to their Inaccuracies. Following Mr..
Runge, two character witnesses were
called and the case was then continued
until tomorrow. " .-' 80 =:

Frank James Asked to Take Lead
ing Role in Bloody
Drama.
It Revolves About Bank Robberies
and Has 100 Shots a

Frank James of st. Louis has been
called to solve the crisis in American
drama caused by the recent refusal Of
Cole Younger to assume the leading role
in Younger Brothers, Bank Robbers"
a problem play for which ammunition is be-
ing collected by the Crescy Theatrical
Syndicate of Chicago. 1t is true that the
terms Of Younger's pardon would. prevent
his entering upon a histrionic career, but
his friends have known that he was al
ways averse to exhibiting himself, and
that under no circumstances would he
have discharged blank cartridges to hear
the gallery howl.
On the drainage canal, however, where
every man is presumed to have his price,
|, Younger's attitude was not anticipated.
The Crescy drama was evolved at great
expense. The most inspired carpenters.

he's Roman senator. Otis Skinner may

William Aud. of 524 Summit Place,
Milwaukee, is employed as an engineer in
the Milwaukee water works. He is also
owner of an Andrews Home Heating
plant, at the address given, of which he
writes: "4As to the heating plant bought
of you Ghe Andrews Heating Co., hot
water home heaters), I am very well sat
isfied with it. Of course (here is where
the point comes n), burning soft COAL as
am doing. not being able to get hard
coal, it requires more attention. and
have to clean the hues and smoke pipe
every third day or SO; however that re-
quires but few minutes I am glad
that have not got hot air furnace, as
my neighbors have a good deal of trouble
with theirs, using soft coal"
It is not surprising that people who
know about heating plants and machinery
in general should decide upon the An.
dreWs celebrated Home (hot water) Heat
ing system. 1t is a scientifically put up
plant just like those used in the largest
| buildings, adapted to small and medium
