company, of st. Louis Park, against
Culbert Gilbertson to recover on three
notes for $35 each, which had been in
dorsed by Gilbertson, was heard in the

were invalid because they We're made
to bear interest at the rate of u per

this reason the indorser hassrefused to
settle. Judge Finehout took the matter
under advisement.

The ST. Agatha Concert.

Local musicians contributed to an
excellent programme presented last
night at st. Agatha's conservatory. Tie
musicale, give in the recital hall of the
conservatory, was the second in a Sc
ries of four concerts arranged by the
faculty.
The audience was especially demon
strative last night over the work of a
string quartette recently formed in st.
Paul and which is made up Of Mr..
Muhlenbruch, Mr.. J. Rodenkirchen, Mr..
r. Stein and Mr.. H. Stein. The men
are all good solists, and thorough train
ing in orchestral work has made it
easy for them to subordinate personali-
ties to the demands made by a quar-
tette. Beethoven's ''Tema Con Vari-
zone" was played with excellent effect,
and the Handel Largo and Booche-
rine's ''Minuet Celebre" gave the quar-
tette further opportunities for proving
that it is to be an acquisition to st.
Paul musical circles. Two of the mem
bers were heard in solo numbers Mr..
Muhlenbruch played Vieuxtemps' BAL

His hands crossed peacefully on his breast, the body of man lay on the top of polished oak casket in an alley to the rear of an undertaking establishment at 2S3 Wells street, Chicago. The coffin was supported on chairs, and dozen lighted candles f1ickered and fared in the night air.
 Three policemen from the East Chica- go avenue station saw the lights.

 The three approached. When they saw the still form they. .hesitated.
 "A wake said the man in the rear, mopping his brow. Far be it from me to disturb the slumber of the dead"
 Investigation was necessary, however There were no mourners in view and the policemen tremb1ingly approached.
 As they did so the corpse sat upright The policeman did not flee principally because their trembling legs would not support them.

How Woman Gave Few Pointers

 It seemed as though he was one of the seven sleepers, this man aboard the Ninth street car, who had asked for a transfer to Broadway. When his destination was reached, the con ductor touched him respectfully upon the shoulder, but he slept on like a log, his head dropping upon his breast. The conductor took him by the should CT, gave him q gentle shake, then a more vigorous one, but ne produced no effect save that of rolling the mau's head from one side to the other. Every body in the car was getting interested The man on the other side of the sleeper leant q hand in the shaking. and the man at the grip sounded his gong impatiently Dear me- said q little woman on the seat behind, ''why don't they speak to him. Then, im- patient because no one paid any atten- ton to her suggestion, she stood up, leaned forward, and putting her lips 10 the sleeping mans ear said, in a low, distinct voice: 'sThis is where you get off"
 "W-h-hatY' stammered the man rousing from his slumber almost inn mediately and stumbling out of the car.
