Manchester, n H., March LEX
Mayor Albert Alonzo Ames of Mime
apolis appeared in the superior court this
morning before Judge Pike in habeas
corpus proceedings, the settlement of
which will determine whether DR.. Ames
Is to be taken back to Minneapolis or
not. A cold, drizzing rain did not pre-
vent many interested spectators from
crowding the courtroom.
At 1920 a. m. Dr. Ames entered the
courtroom the arm Of Deputy Sheriff
Frank A. Ordway. He was heavily
clothed wearing an overcoat and a cap,
overshoes and gloves. One arm was
locked in that of the deputy sheriff and
with the other he supported himself with
a cane. He was followed by Mrs. Ames.
The party went to the front of the room
and took seats. DR.. Ames appeared very
weak as he entered but showed no signs
of mental depression. He removed his
coat. assisted by the sheriff, and ap-
peared dressed in frock coat and light
trousers.
Sheriff. j. w. Dreger entered and took
seat behind DR.. Ames. No physicians
accompanied the ex-mayor. c. J. Hamb-
lett and John R. Spring represented. the
petitioner and County. Solicitor James P.
futile appeared for the state.
Judge Pike and Clerk Of Court Thomas
D. Luce came in and the court was called
and the judge commanded Sheriff Nathan
lei Doane to hold the petitioner until an
order was issued.
Attorney Spring opened the case for
the petitioner and addressing the court
stated that the hearing was to test the
validity and legality of the arrest and
holding of Dr. Ames. He stated that Ames
had been arrested on a warra MT issued by
the Minneapolis officials and that the
documentary evidence was insufficient.
He also contended that the warrant as
issued by Governor N. J. Bachelor of this
state was defective and void. TX -7{
In the petition he said that the mere
issuance of a warrant was not conclusive

There is question whether the charges
were substantially made. Mr. Spring
stated that at the extradition hearing
the governor refused to entertain any
evidence regarding whether Ames COM

that the warrant was Irregular, illegal

A BRAVE MAN
DIED AT SEA

When Samuel McAllister, fireman
second-class, U. S. N, passed away on
this ship at 11:15 Sunday night, the
18th inst, life of long service to our
country and flag was closed.
McAllister had been suffering some
time from heart trouble and had been
undergoing treatment for that ailment
at the Naval Hospital in Yokohama,
but was returned for duty shortly be-
fore we sailed for Honolulu.
His enlistment was to have expired
tomorrow. He went to his post in
the fire room without complaint but
his condition was such that his
strength soon failed and he was obIig-
ed to give up. He was about the
decks Sunday until late in the even
ing when he was attacked by heart
failure and carried to the sick hay
where he died shortly afterwards.
The body was prepared for the deep
and the impressive burial took place
the following day.
All hands mustered on the quarter
deck; the colorS were hoisted to the
gait and the squadron 'shove to-
Colors were lowered to half mast and
Ravenswood's Funeral March hushed
every sound about the ship. Lieut.
enant- Commander Henry T. Mayo read
the service for the burial of the dead
at sea, interrupted by Nearer My
God to Thee" played by the band.
Tears gathered in many eyes as the
heavily weighted body was consigned
to the deep. Three volleys were fired
by a squad of marines, and the bugler
sounded taps as the body which had
served the country well, was sinking
in its watery grave.
McAllisters early service was done
in the army and at his death he was
at the close of his second cruise in the
navy. Although he had not yet receiv-
ed it. he was awarded a medal Of hon
Or and a gratuity of $4,000 by the
Department on March %, 1902, for
bravery at Tien Tsin, China, June 20,
1900. He was serving on the Mono
cacy at the time; on the opposite side
of the river lodged behind shacks and
salt racks were several Chinese sharp
shooters who were doing considerable
damage to both Americans and Eng
lsh; although repeatedly driven away
they returned under the concealment
of the shacks. McAllister volunteered
with corporal and two privates to
face their fire and burn their shelter
which deed was accomplished at the
most hazardous risk, and for which
he was awarded the honor and re-
Enumeration which has been too long
delayed.
McAllister was "a years of age. He
leaves a sister, Miss j. McAllister who
resides at 129, 4th Avenue, New York.

A Well
Developed
Form


A good set of muscles is one of the
most excellent qualifications which any
person can possess. There is no posi-
don in life for which they unfit one, and
@ere is none which they will not enable
k&e to fill to better advantage than he
otherwise could do. There are thous-
and and one emergencies in life in which
strong, vigorous, and well-traiiled mus
cles are of enormous service, and in
which their use may be of incalcuable
value. Proper physical culture gives,
not only. increased physical strength, but
greater dexterity, suppleness, and grace
of movement. The person who walks
with shutting, swaying, and awkward
gait, does so, not en- account of any
original defect in his physical makeup,
but through the weakness of certain
muscles which, by disuse, have become
unable to do their part in the act of
walking, and so render him unable to
perform it in an easy and graceful man
ner. The trained gynlnast exhibits a
lighfness and elasticity of movement inn
possible to an individual who has not
had the benefit of physical training at
the WOODS INSTITUTE.
