YEARS COURTS MARTIAL
Half of Charges Against Soldiers

Hobbies Report.

Court martial trials to the number Of
1924, upon 1880 counts, were held in the
department Of Dakota last year, accord
ing to the report of Brigadier General w.
A. Kobbe, commanding the department.
This report. made public yesterday, ex-
plains that nearly half the charges against
offenders tried were for drunkenness. Of

the soldiers had small provocation to fire.

canteen he seldom could drink too much,
and, in case he was suddenly over

In general, says General Kobbe, dis
cipline among northwestern soldiers has
been good and there has been evidence
Of steady improvement.
General Kobbe once more recommends
that in each company and troup a per-
manent squad be instructed as scouts.
Officers, says the commander, have
been infinitely encouraged in providing

considering that with the organization
of a general staff these courses will not

GOOD WORD FOR JOSEPH
John A. Lowry Of Belfast Says
Chamberlain's Reciprocity
Ideas Are o. K.

while it is true in a general way that
American manufactured articles are su-
perior to the European products, and that
they consequently dominate In the mar
ket, there is one line in which you do
not excel, and that is linen goods said
John A. Lowry Of Belfast, Ireland, this
afternoon. Mr.. Lowry travels for Bel
fast linen house which sends him over
to the United States twice a year, and
Is at present staying at the West hotel.
Irish linens always have been better
than American linens and probably al
ways will be- said Mr.. Lowry. This is
partly because we have better bleaching
facilities, but largely because you can
not raise as good a quality Of flax in this
country as we raise in Ireland or import
from Belgium and Russia. Irish manu-
facturers are willing to produce in small
quantities and good qualities rather than
attempt to turn the stuff out by the mile,
and 1t Is this care in manufacture which
helps maintain the supremacy Of Irish
linens.
Chamberlain is a great man and is ten
years ahead Of his time and his contem-
poraries in England. He wants reciprocity
with the United States and will get II
some day, probably before very long
Until then we will have to do the best we
can with your high tariffs. But 1t is a
mistake for Americans to think that they
are the only manufacturers in the world
and that Europeans cannot do some things
as well as they"

GET AFFIDAVIIS IN
Ames' Lawyers Get Statement Of
New Evidence for Supreme
Courts Review.
They Ask for an Order to Set Aside
Denial Of New
Trial.

Affidavits containing newly discov-
cred evidence" have been made a part Of
the A. A. Ames record and will be re-
viewed by the supreme court on the APP
peal The gist of the evidence Is con-
tanned in the affidavit of w. w. Brown,
which tends to contradict Gardeners
statements made during the trial. thus
destroying the credibility Of the states
chief witness. Brown swears he over
heard conversation between Gardner
and one of the women Of the town from
whom graft was collected.
II have great graft" Gardner is said
to have remarked.
What If the doctor should find it
out?"
Tie won't find it out. The old man
knows nothing about this. am working
it by myself" is alleged to have been
Gardner's reply.
Counter affidavits by Gardner have also
been filed and made part Of the record.
In order to have this evidence certified
to the supreme court DR.. Ames' counsel
made a motion before Judge Elliott yes
terday afternoon for an order setting
aside the order denying a new trial and
for leave to renew the motion for a new
trial. Judge Elliott heard the arguments
of counsel and this morning denied their
motion. Their object was nevertheless
obtained. If their motion had been
granted it would have opened the case
for another argument on the new trial
question and would have continued the
appeal over to the December term of the
supreme court. The move was clever
one and shows that the Anaes defense has
not yet given up hope and is letting nc
opportunity escape them of saving what
Is apparently a lost cause.

IUBERS ARE COSTLY NOW
Potato Fields Are Under Water and
the Present Supply Is
Low.

The sudden advance of 80 cents a BUSH
ell In potatoes has proved Of great concern
to the wholesaler, the retailer and the
consumer. The rainy weather Of the past
ten days, has flooded all lowlands devoted
to potato raising, and the supply now
coming to market Is so small as to shut
out all shipping. SO far there has been
no scarcity for local consumption, but
cradle for the grocer who turns in a slip
charging potatoes at the rate of 81 per
bushel.
J. A. Hamilton who supplies many large
local grocers, expressed himself as fol-
lows In regard to the local situation this
| morning:
Digging potatoes by boat is not a
| popular pasttme with local growers, and
| a good many of them are wondering what
| they will get when the weather bureau
| changes It's present monotonous program
| The boys in Hennepin county are all in
| good shape. having had a fine year on
most crops, and have not been In any
hurry to dig their crop, but now all low
| lands are covered with water and they
can't get on them II they wanted to. The
stock now coming in from the high, sandy
lands, and I guess there will be enough
coming to keep Minneapolis from starving.
There Is not much worry as yet in regard
| to rot, but, Of course a continuation Of
! present weather conditions would cause
havoc. If the sun should come out for a
| few days so that the fields could dry, we
| look for prices to settle back to around
former figures of SO to 60 cents per
| bushel."

BULLET THRU GLASS
VIM. /. Klein, Passenger on an
Interurban Car, Receives
Scare.
Small Boy Shoots Up Fifth Street
With an Air Gun and
Matches.

It's nice to be attractive, but there is
such as thing as having things come too
much your way, in the opinion of William
L. Klein. manager of the Lancet Publish
ing company, who had an experience yes
terday which he does not care to repeat.
Mr.. Klein was speeding toward st. Paul
about p. m. yesterday and was sitting
on the left hand side of an interurban
car. Just as the car started across the
Washington avenue bridge there was a
sharp crack Of breaking glass and bullet
passed close to Mr.. Klein.
So great was thej velocity of the flying
missile that 1t made clean hole in the
glass, one SO finely formed as to indicate
that the bullet was from a 22-caliber rifle.
That the small boy with the small gun is
abroad in the land is being evidenced on
many sides. The other day one of the
species with an air gun was discovered on
Fifth street. between Nicollet and Henne-
pin avenues, gaily shooting matches
against the walls of buildings for the
pleasure of hearing them explode. That
he did not hit a passer-by in the eye was
not the fault of the citizen.
Promiscuous shooting about town by the
small boy is regarded by many as alto
gether too risky, and an appeal to the
police department for the protection OF
grown-ups is likely to be made.

EAGLES MAKE GOOD
BurIesquers at the Dewey Present Va.
rled and Entertain-

The Eagle burlesaue company pre-
sents a very entertaining show at the
Dewey theater this week. The two bur-
lesques, 1.-THE Wizard of jersey and
ION Board the Good Ship Jane are
travesties Of '.The Wizard Of Or and
'tPinafore,,'' respectively. Both contain
good lines and situations. The music is
good, the costumes elaborate and the
chorus comely in face and figure.
The olio is much stronger than usual.
Annie Hart makes a great hit with her
impersonation Of an old-time song and
dance artist. This is one of the clever
est specialties that has been at the Dewey
this year. Conroy and Mcfarland pre-
sent clever Irish comedy turn. Ralph
Post and Essie Clinton have turn which
contains nothing but nonsense, but 1t is
very clever nonsense. The talking dog,
Flip, is one Of the hits of the show.
Benny WEIGH, in Hebrew parodies and

NOT ENOUGH FUNDS
Polk County Fails to Secure Loan
From State School Fund.

Senator ANDY" Stephens achieved a
triumph last winter when he got thru his
bill permitting the state to loan school
money at per cent on county drainage
bonds, and it was rather hard luck when
the state board Of investment took up an
application yesterday from Polk county,
for $4,000 loan. and turned it down be-
cause Of lack of funds. The board only
had q. balance Of $4,000, after buying
$3.50. 900 capital commission certificates,
but applications were approved amounting
to $66, 100, and it is thought that enough
will be paid in soon to make all the loans
authorized. They were county and school
district loans, given out to the various
counties as follows:
Lincoln, $4,000; Redwood, 81 500; Rice,
bard $4,000; Carlton, $4,000; Wadena, $1,000;

BLOCKS J. FROST
Wet Straw Smudge Good Thing tt
Protect Gardens.

A convenient remedy to frighten off
Jack Frost which would save the dollars
Of many gardeners and farmers If used,
says the section director, is the burning
Of wet straw in bonfires about gardens
or fields. The straw fire is also cordially
recommended by Willis l.. Moore, chief
Of the national weather bureau, in a bull
letin prepared by VIII. Harmon, profess
sor Of meteorology
The fires should be small ones, twenty
five to fifty feet apart. The thick smoke
laden with moisture, will settle like q
cloud about the fields and will prevent the
heat Of the earth from escaping upward
Moreover, the fires will condense the
moisture in the surrounding atmosphere
and will thus evolve an immense amount
Of heat.
This plan has proved very successful ir
warding off frost from fruit orchards II
California and even from extensive wheat
fields in Dakota.
