GROWS HYSTERIC
IN COURT ROOM
Frenzied Cries of Mrs. Anna
Bernstein Echo Through
Many Corridors.

Unable to longer withstand the strain
OF being in court and hearing evidence
in forcible entry case brought against
her husband and herself, Mrs. Anna
Bernstein, of 405 East Seventh street,
became violently hysterical during the
progress of the trial in the civil divi-
sion of the municipal court yesterday
afternoon and it required the combined
strength of number of men and Wom-
en- to restrain her until a physician
could be summoned. The woman's
screams could be heard all over the
court house.
The case on trial was that of Morris
Renzen against Morris Bernstein, the
action having been brought for the
purpose of having the Bernsteins eject
ed from the premises at 405 East Sew
enth street. Renzen and Bernstein
are Notwithstanding, the plaintiff being
brother of Mrs Bernstein.
1t appeared from the evidence that
Renzen had rented the premises in
question and had given permission to
his sister and her husband to live there
until he should want the rooms for
other purposes. The Bernsteins are
poor people and were not required to
pay rent.
Early in February Renzen wanted
possession of the house and asked his
to vacate the action for forcible entry
was begun.
The case was called for hearing be-
fore Judge Hine yesterday and nearly
half hundred witnesses were in court.
There appeared to be two factions and
the interested parties gathered about in
groups and talked in highly pitched
voices during the trial of the case.
Bernstein's attorney had just started
to make an argument for the dismissal
OF the case when Mrs. Bernstein lost
control of herself.
Rising suddenly from her seat in
the court room, she screamed and rush
ed into the corridor, where her loud
cries attracted people from all over the
building.
The contents of a tank of ice water
were thrown on the hysterical woman
without effect and she became so vio-
lent that several men had all they could
do to hold her until the arrival of a
physician.
DR.. Ohage was summoned and soon
had the woman quoted so that she
could be removed to her home.
The case was taken under advise
ment by Judge Hine.

HOW CHILDREN
SHOULD BE TAUGHT
DR.. Rypins Opposed to Theo.
logical Training in the
Public Schools.

Il, for one, am strongly opposed 70
the introduction of religious training
in the public schools said DR.. Rypins
at meeting of the Public School
Union of st. Paul last evening at the
Webster school. Too often it devel-
ops into theological training and the
presentation of theological disquisi-
lions.
The better the training the child
receives at home the less trouble he
or she will be to the teacher, and for
that reason alone we should seriously
consider being more careful in our
methods of bringing them up.
The trouble is, in too many cases,
that the parents lead dual lives. They
are one thing at home and another
abroad. They cherish, if they do not
practice, a dual standard of morality,
and the child is quick to perceive this;
in other words, the children catch on
The training starts at the mothers
knee, but her duty does not end there.
She can exert the greatest influence on
the childs life, be it when he is small
or grown, that he will ever know"
Daniel w. Lawler spoke on "Instruc-
ton by Example" He said in part:
1t has ever been to me a matter of
the utmost and gravest surprise that
parents will disregard instructing their
children to respect their elders and
their superiors, and then at the age
when they are ready for school pack
them off to the seats of learning and
suppose that the instructors will train
them to become good men and noble
women.
Il have often heard, and I am in
clined to believe, that the training a
child received between the ages of
three and ten will govern his future
life. Think of 1t! Think of the re-
Sihi1itU that he
Is it not an insult to teachers to send
to them children who have been ne
elected in morality, cleanliness and the
common knowledge of civility, and
then to expect that they will turn out
| models Of learning and morality?
Too often children are taught a.
wrong conception of the term liberty
or freedom They are given to think
in many instances that any assertion
OF proper authority or restriction is
tyranny and in this manner all that is
accomplished at school is undone in the
home.
Want of respect is the great thing:
the great evil, may call it. that is to
| be fought by the teacher of today. And
all this is because that branch of the
child instruction has been neglected
| by those best fitted to exercise 1.-THE

SO hard to obtain the proper material:

man whom I heard speaking of his

as the old woman And in this I do
not see that 1 am open to blame. The

father or mother will not respect me
as an employer; and the man who
does not respect me will not be scrup-

SKAHILL'S CASE
RESTS WITH JURY
Right to Recovery for AL
legged Accident to Be
Determined.

The personal injury damage suit
brought by Eugene Skahill against the
city, in which the plaintiff seeks to re-
cover $4,000 for injuries alleged to
have been sustained as the result of
a defective sidewalk, went to the jury
yesterday afternoon at o'clock. At a
late hour last night the jury had failed
to reach an agreement.
The case attracted much attention,
from the fact that the injuries sus-
tanned by Skahill, and for which he
wants the city to pay $4,000. are said
by other witnesses to have been sus-
tanned under entirely different circum-
stances.
Skahill claims to have been injured
on the night of Oct. IA, 1902, by step
ping through a rotten plank in a
sidewalk in front of 241 South Robert
street. Skahill presented his claim to
the city, and upon his sworn statement
and an affidavit made by Peter Ell
lingsen, who claimed to have been with
Skahill at the time he was injured,
the city agreed to compromise the case
by paying Skahill 1915.
A check for this amount was made
out, but before il was paid over to
the pldtnllH lily prosecutor Keller
was informed that the injury for which
the city was paying had been received
at the home of Ellingsen during a
scufle in which Skahill engaged. The
payment of the check was stopped and
the suit for damages was begun anew.
The testimony in the case was con-
flichGg, witnesses for the different
sides telling stories which varied ma
terially. Ellingsen, who recently had
trouble with Skahill, was the princi-
pal witness for the city. His testi-
mony was to the effect that he had
first agreed to stand by Skahill in his
story of having been injured in the
manner claimed, but when he talked
the matter over with his wife, she in
duced him to tell the truth, and he had
Informed the city prosecutor that it
was "a put-up job"
The case was tried before Judge Orr
and jury. Judge Orr instructed the
jury TO return sealed verdict, should
they reach an agreement during the
night.

KELLY WON'T TRY
SALOON CASES
Declines to Sit i'm View of
Charges Of Unfairness Pre-
ferred Against Him.


Judge Kelly, who has charge of the
criminal calendar during the present
term of the district court, will not
occupy the bench during the trial of
any of the remaining disorderly house
cases. Judge Bum will be asked to
try the cases of this nature, which
are to be brought to trial during the
present term of court.
This action is taken at the request
of Judge Kelly himself, being the re-
suit of charges of unfairness and par
TALLY in cases of this nature made
against him in an affidavit of prejudice
filed in the Twombly case. Upon the
refusal of the attorneys to try the
disorderly house case before Judge
Kelly, the latter called upon Judge
Bum to try the case, and SO long as
these cases are on in the district court
Judge Bum will be asked to remain
on the bench.
Judge Kellys announcement of his
intention to have Judge Bum hear
these cases forestalled the filing of
another affidavit of prejudice, which
had been prepared, in the Weinholzer
case. The affidavit was to be filed
yesterday, but when Weinholzer's at
torneyS learned that Judge Bum was
to hear the case, the affidavit was not
filed.
Judge Kelly heard all of the disor-
derby house cases up to the time the
Twombly case was called, and in the
regular course of events would have
heard the rest of them. 1t is stated
that the st. Paul Retail Liquor Deal
ers' association objects to Judge Kel-
ly, and for this reason, it is said Judge
Kelly desired that the cases be heard
by some other judge.
The retrial of the case of the state
against Anton Weinholzer, proprietor
of the Empire theater, will be COM
menced III the criminal division of the
district court this morning. Vein
holzer is under Indictment, charged
with keeping a disorderly house He
was tried on the charge at the Febru-
airy term of court, the trial resulting in
disagreement of the jury.
