READY MARCH 10
Prisoners Will Be Moved
From Court House on
That Date.

Preparations are being made for the
occupancy Of the new county Jail by the
prisoners now confined in the tempo
rary quarters on the top floor of the
court house. If the present plans of
the county commissioners are carried
out, the transfer will be made March

principally plumbing, can be done with
the jail part of the building occupied.

time later, perhaps the middle OF
April.
The county commissioners visited

tractor and the county architect, no
titled Sheriff Justus that his prisoners
could be transferred by March 49, 1t

ELDER WANTS STREET
CAR ORDINANCE KILLED
He Thinks 1t Useless Because Grand
Avenue Service Has Been Improved.

kill the Grand avenue ordinance.
We've got the service and there Is no
need of it now" was Aid. Elders brief
telephone message to a member of the
committee on streets of the board of
aldermen yesterday afternoon.
The ordinance, which prescribeS a
five and ten minutes service on the
Grand avenue and Lafayette lines, was
up before the committee yesterday aft
ernoon, but because of the lack of a
quorum could not be considered.
The ordinance calling for better
service originated in the assembly, H.
G. Schurmeier being it's author, but
because of tactics credited to Aid. Ell
der 1t has never been able to get
through the board of aldermen.
AS soon as the assembly passed it,
the street car company put on the de-
manded service, but it is now feared
that as soon as the agitation dies out
the old twenty minute service will be
resumed.
The Grand avenue end Of the line
has taken considerable interest in the
measure, and property owners out
there have appeared frequently before
the council in support Of it's passage.

NEW SEWERS
IN BIG DEMAND
City Engineers Office Re-
ceives Unprecedented
Number of Orders.

"The property owners of St. Paul are
sewer mad this year. I never saw. so
many calls for them as have been
made recently, and, what is more re-
markable, the number is increasing"
said Assistant City Engineer Starkey
yesterday. IF the calls continue they
will be beyond the capacity Of the con-
tractors who do that work.
While several big sewer systems, in
volVing expenditures all the way from
$4,000 to $125,000 are under consid-
Grafton, the principal work of the en-
gineering department this years is the
completion of small laterals, jobs
cummings all the way from $500 to
$1,000. The engineers Office is Uttered
with plans and specification for sew
ers of this class and the calls for more
still continue to come.
I don't know whether it is an indi-
cation that many new homes are to
be built this year, but the activity is
certainly to be commended. The best
of it is, the sewers are not being forced
on the property owners. They are
asking for them and kicking because
we do not supply them fast enough"

BRINGS LOVER
FROM FkTHERLAND
Heroic German Girl Pays Her
SWeetheart's Passage and
They Are Wed.

There is a story Of romance, true
love and self-denial behind the mar
riage of Adam Barth, who arrived in
st. Paul direct from Germany yester-
day morning, and Maggie Kanton.
pretty nineteen-year- German girl,
who left her home in Germany two
years ago and came to America to
make her own way in the world.
The marriage was performed by
Court Commissioner Gallick yesterday
afternoon at his office in the court
house. Owing to the inability of the
groom to understand English, the cere-
mony was conducted IN the German
language.
Two years ago, when Maggie Kan
ton, poor girl Of seventeen, left her
home for America, her greatest asset
was a modest engagement ring, pre-
scented to her by Adam Barth, and the
love she bore the donor. Barth was
poor himself, but he promised his
sweetheart that he would come to
America and claim her as his bride as
soon as he could save enough money
to pay his passage. The weeks passed
into months, and the months to years,
but only discouraging letters were re-
ceived by Miss Kanton from her lover
in the old country Determined as he
was, it was impossible for the young
man to save enough money from his
small earnings to pay his passage to
ST. Paul, where Miss Kanton had
chosen to make her home.
This was not the case with the
plucky little girl, however, who Sc
cured employment as a domestic upon
her arrival here. She worked hard
and saved her money with but one
object in view, that of saving enough
from her weekly stipend to secure the
passage of her lover to this country.
Selfden1al was practiced, and not a
penny was spent where it was not alb
solutely necessary. After two years
her savings amounted to enough to
pay the expenses of young Barth's
passage to this country, and the money
was sent him. When the faithful little
girl met her lover at the union station
yesterday morning, the meeting was
an affecting one, and little time was
lost in arranging for the marriage.
At the Office of the clerk of courts
the young woman explained that
marriage license was desired. and a
few minutes later the happy couple
were pronounced man and wife by
Court Commissioner Gallick, to whom
the girl told the story of how she had
worked and saved in anticipation of
this happy event.
Miss Kanton was for some time en-
ployed as a maid at the city hospital,
but left there several weeks ago to
accept a position as domestic in pr1-
waite family.

Mrs. Christian Jochlin, Mr. and Mrs.

secreted in the house. When told that
no such amount was there the bandits
applied burning torches to the faces
and feet of all their victims, blistering
even the infants little feet. Christian

so frequently that there is not a spot
on his head that is not bruised and
raw. The marauders securely tied
their victims and searched every cor
ner of the house. They secured $500 in
cash and several articles Of jewelry
They ate a hearty meal and notified
the family that they would return for
the $4,000.

SOUTH PARK GIRL
HAS PRESENCE OF MIND
Extinguishes Fire In House Without
Disturbing Sick Mother.

Miss Forest Curry, the fifteen-year-
old daughter Of S. D. Curry, of South
Park, is regarded by her friends as a
heroine.

noon she discovered the second story of
the house to be on fire. Without a
word or sound that might alarm her
critically ill mother. the girl seized a
bucket of water that stood nearby and
dashed 1t upon the flames. Then with
out stopping she ran for the corner
store several blocks away, and gather
ing force of men led them back and
soon had the flames under control.

exhibited by the girl the damage to the
house was scarcely $780,

Swift Packing company, suffered a
serious fall from the porch of the house
during the efforts of the party to ex-
tlnguish the flames.

THERE is REALLY A RIGHT
OF PROPERTY IN NEWS
So Declares the Supreme Court Of
Massachusetts


BOSTON, Mass, Feb. 26.-The right
of property in news was decided by the
supreme court today. A decision was
handed down in case in which the
plaintiff claimed that the defendant
had no property right in certain infor-
nation which referred to certain facts
concerning building operations. The
court finds that anyone gathering news
or information at some expense and
furnishing it daily to subscribers orally
or in writing under contract by which
they agree to hold 1t in secret conf
dence and for use in their own business
has valuable right of property which
court Of equity will protect against
those seeking to obtain it from the
owner without right and to his dam
age.
The court holds that the giving of
such information to customers is not
such publication of it as to consti-
tute Its dedication for use by the pub
lie and to deprive of the right to con-
troll it's use.
