HYPNOTIST ROBBED HIM
johnson Demnnina Makes Queer Com
plant to City Prosecutor Keller.

"a -3E g.
Johnson De9mming, an old GIN, past
seventy years of age, who lives alone
IN little house ron Wyoming street,
on the West side, applied to City Pros
ecutor Keller yesterday for assistance
IN securing the return of $3.50, of which
ne claims to have been robbed while
under a hypnotic spell. Demmins
says the money is the result of years
OF savings, and he was almost pros
tFated when he appeared at the office
OF the city prosecutor yesterday.
According to Demming's story, a
stranger, representing. himself to be
from Minneapolis, came to his home
sunday, and soon had him under a
hypnotic. SPELL While under the in
nuencee of the hypnotist, SO Demming
says he was induced to divulge the
hiding place of his money, which he
mas for years kept buried under the
floor of his little barn The following
day. when Demming went to look for
ms money, it was gone, and he believes
the mysterious stranger is responsible
for its disappearance.
Demming, who appears to be de-
mented, was unable to give the name
or the stranger who is charged with
taking it, or even a good description
of the man.
Demming was, for number of
years, a street sweeper, and for a long
time has lived alone In his little home
on Wyoming street.

WARMER WEATHER
To SUPERSEDE THE
COLD WAVE
Thermometer Yesterday Rose
From Is Degrees Below in
the Morning to 8 Above in
the Evening, and Indica-
tons Point to Rise Today.

The annual February cold wave has
come and gone. After three days and
+ nights of severe weather, relief came
yesterday, when the thermometer rose
from IL below to 6 above. The official
instrument at the weather office yes
terday showed that big jump, and the
general condition Of the atmosphere
since yesterday morning and the pros
pect for an improvement today will
fulfill the conservative forecast: Fair
thursday, with rising temperature"
Though the weather office has no
reports from which a radical change in
the weather might be predicted, it is
supposed that either q snow storm or
thaw will be due in ST. Paul within
a few days. That the biting weather
OF the past four days has passed,
however, is a certainty.
Backbone of Winter Broken.
This cold wave, which has inflicted
SO much discomfort, was a regular
Minnesota winter institution. Old res~
idents of Minnesota always look for
from three days to two weeks of Sc
verify during the first part of Febru-
airy, and when it has gone they feel
relieved and turn their eyes towards
spring. They still anticipate, however,
some Wintry days and billiards. in
March.
The cold wave just passed was re-
markarkable in that it came after the
first ten days of February, within
which period the usual February cold
wave is due. The cold wave which
has just departed approached st. Paul
on the 18th and 18th, when the mer-
curry fell to below. On the 18th it
fell to -; on the 10th it dropped to the
lowest point reached, "a; on the 18th
it rose to 20 below, and yesterday
point it rose to 6 above at o'clock
yesterday afternoon.
The report of the official observation
taken in st. Paul at o'clock last even
ing indicated that the mercury then
stood at above, but later in the even
ing unofficial thermometers indicated
as high as above. The temperature
naturally fell during the night, but in
dfcatfons point to rise today
Warm in the Northwest.
Almost all points in the Northwest
last evening reported high tempera-
lures. At Medicine Hat and Calgary
the quicksilver climbed to over 80
above; at Edmonton it stood art %;
Swift Current, IA; but at Winnipeg it
was IL below, and at Minnedosa Ia be-
low. The difference is to be attributed
to the fact that the change had not,
last evening, reached the two latter
points.
The sun is growing stronger day by
day, and a variation in atmospheric
conditions is now more apparent on
that account.
The return of more comfortable wealth.
er will be hailed with joy by the thou
sands who have been suffering from
fuel shortage. Firms that were known
to have available or prospective sup
plies received so many hundreds Of or
ders yesterday that they were COM
PEELED to refuse to accept more. Hard
coal is now on the way to st. Paul, and
the dealers say it will arrive at the end
Of the present week or early next
week.

SUPREME COURT LET'S
IRETON OUT ON BAIL
Case Will Not Come Up Till April
Term, When Hearing VIII Be Granted.

The supreme court came to the res
cue of Tom Ireton and he will not have
to commence his sentence of ninety
days in the WorkhOuSe until after the
April term of the supreme court.
IretOn has been confined in the coun-
ty Jail since last Thursday, on which
date Judge Kelly sentenced him to
ninety days in the workhouse for keep
ing a disorderly house.
Judge Kelly denied the motion made
by Ireton's attorney for a new trial,
and also refused to allow the prisoner
to give bail pending an appeal to the
supreme court.
Yesterday Chief Justice Start heard
the application made by Harvey E..
Hall to allow Ireton to give bail pend
ing the settlement of the appeal and
granted the application
A bond in the sum of $500, with p.
j. Bowlin and Charles Kartak as sure
ties, was accepted by the chief justice,
and Ireton was released from custody.
The appeal will be heard at the April
terms of the supreme court.

GOODRICH PROMISES
TO GIVE OWL CARS
A TRIAL.
Mayor Smith Signs the ordi-
nance, Which Will Take Eff
feet Upon Its Legal Publ
cation Tomorrow wls"
May Be Running Before
March [.

Mayor Smith has signed the "owl
car" ordinance and Assemblyman
Schumacher, the author of the measure,
is the poSSeSSor Of the pen that made
it a law.
Mayor Smith received the ordinance
at o'clock yesterday afternoon, and
two hours later affixed his official sig
nature, remarking as he did SO, well,
that is DONE / never took much stock
in the thing, but lot Of people seem
to want it. They are it in this case
and what they want goes with me-"
While the official approval of the
mayor removes any possibility of de-
lay or defeat for the new service, the
ordinance will not be law until Fri
day, when it will receive legal publica-
ton in the columns of 7 he Clio b e.
The street car company will then re-
ceive official notification of it's exist
ence.
Vice President c.. c. Goodrich, Of the
street railway company, when seen in
Minneapolis last evening, informed
I h G b e that the all-night service
proposition will be given a thorough
test by the company.
May Run Owl Cars Before March 1.
It is the intention Of the company to
start the new schedule in the very
near future, and it is possible that be-
fore March 1 all-night cars will be run
ming in the Twin Cities.
Some time ago President Lowry an
nounced that if the company felt JUS
tilted in establishing such a service it
would do so, and now that pressure
has been brought to bear on the COM
pany by the labor unions and city
council, action will be taken soon as
permissible.
AS yet the company has not mapped
out its plans, but it is believed that
when the test is made all the impor-
tant lines in both cities will be in
Guided. It is very likely that the old
interurban line will also be put on the
new schedule.
Mr.. Goodrich says it is the desire Of
the company to furnish service after
o'clock on all lines where there is a
| demand for 1t.
1t has been shown that 1000 or more
employed at night will patronize the
all-night cars. President Lowry is now
In the East, and as the matter rests
with him it is very likely that no ac-
ton will be taken until he returns.
Schumacher Gets Memento.
Assemblyman Schurmeier was pres
ent when the measure was signed, and
the pen used by the mayor in inscrib-
ing his name was turned over to him
at his request.
81 worked hard for that ordinance"
he remarked as he carefully placed the
pen and holder in his inside pocket,
and l want something to remember
| the occasion"
Fearing that Mayor Smith might
| possibly veto the measure, a delegation
| of telegraphers consisting of E. G.. Nc
Connell, ]. J. Stewart, Joseph Leonard
and c. I. Hubbard called on his honor
| yesterday and pleaded for his approval
| Mayor Smith told them not to fear, he
| would sign it, which he did later.
