WISCONSIN PLAN ACCEPTED
University Agrees to Arrangement to oh
tain Judges for Debate in
a.- -" Neutral States,

The state university debating board has
agreed to the proposal made by the Wis
consin board that judges shall be appoint
ed from neutral states when the intercol-
legiate debate between the gophers and
badgers is held in Minneapolis, May 8.
Last year the judges for the annual con-
test were chosen from Wisconsin. This
year, according to the agreement, Mime
sofa was to name the judges. But after
they were thus designated, Wisconsin un
accountably insisted that they be taken
from the neutral states. Negotiations
were suspended, ambassadors received
their passports, and war was about to be
proclaimed Thereupon Wisconsin unoffi-
cially announced the subject it has chos-
en-. So captivating was this theme, SO
strongly did it appeal to every human
interest, that Minnesota melted. Diplo-
matte relations were re-established, and
the gophers declared that they would soon
avail themselves of the privilege extended
and specify which side Of the subject they
could defend with most enthusiasm. The
Circean topics will be:
"Would the REIMBURSEMENT Of the fed
eral government Of Its right to tax in
| heritances to the states exclusively be
| preferable to the REIMBURSEMENT by the
| states of their right to tax inheritances

NEEDN'T PAY SALARY
City and County Win Their Point.
on Law Librarians

Court Orders Rooms Provided, but
Does Not Go Any
Farther.

A cessation of hostiities between the
county and city authorities and the Min
neapolis Bar association has been brought
about by order of District Court Judges
Elliott and Harrison The library
Of the latter organization will be installed
in the county courthouse at once. The
salary Of the librarian will not, however,
be paid by the city and county, as pro-
vided for in the new bill. This point will
have to be taken up and fought out later
on. ~ ra#@s A.e
The court in making its ruling decided
that since the defendants. in the matter
of the bar associations petition for the in
stallation of the law library at the court
house, expressly waived the question Of
constitutionality of the new law and the
plaintiff could not raise it, that this point
was eliminated from their considerat ton.
Thus without passing upon this i'm
portant phase of the question, the judges
have ordered: >tsi>.#
"First-That said library be tablished
and maintained in said courthouse and
city hall, pursuant to the provisions Of
said act. :.!E
"second-That the county commission
ers and the city council be, and they here

commodations and library rooms for said

and to properly heat and light the same
''Third-That the room on the third floor

THEOBALDTs SECOND CONCERT

The title of wizard of the violin,' as
sumed by Ole Theobaldi, who appeared
in concert at the Swedish Tabernacle last
evening may readily. be acknowledged.
That Theobaldi, however. is a volinist
within the musical meaning Of that term,
has not yet been demonstrated AS in his
former concert here some weeks ago, so
last evening, his program was entirely de-
voted to the playing of musical tricks.
with single exception of the, Grieg num-
Der. 1.-The Death of Aase,' which APP
peared on both programs. Indeed many
Of the same compositions were played both
evenings. r.,
AS a technician Theobaldi has some
merit. His fingers are agile and he plays
at rapid tempo, but analysis of his
various efforts last night failed to discov-
er any one thing that could be called
thoroughly good. His staccato was not
clear, his pizzicato was mudded, and his
bowling while frequently broad and sonor-
Gus was often marred by objectionable
gaucheries.
Theobaldi evidently believes in himself
four were ascribed to Theobaldi. Of these
the last, DE Wizzardo Shiole,' was writ
ten for. and played on the string, but
aside from that one fact the composition
and it's execution were without merit
Notwithstanding these facts Theobald
was the recipient OF NUMBER OF re-
calls.
The redeeming feature Of the concert
was singing Of Miss Clara Williams who
sang with Verdure Clad" from the
| Creation with fine taste and discrimin
| alton. Her second number was group o.
songs including Governs The Swallows
Chadwick's Allah. and Grieg's evel

A BIG BOND EXACTED'
DR.. Ames Is Allowed Till Saturday
to Secure Sureties for
!. $4,000.
If He Fails, He May Return With
out Appealing His Case to
the Supreme Court.

Will Former Mayor Albert A. Ames be
able to furnish a $12.500 bond, pending his
appeal to the supreme court from Judge
Pixies decision made yesterday, denying
the prisoners petition for release OH
habeas corpus? sa5.qs JgE. t@
That seems to be the question Of vital
Importance in the Ames case just at pres
ept. Next Saturday at 2 O'Clock Is the
time limit fixed by the court. If the bond
Is not forthcoming at that hour DIR. A. A.
Arnes will be placed in the guest chamber
of the Hillsborough county jail. This lodg-
ing place is not fancied by the aesthetic
Minneapolitan, and it is believed that
rather than lie in Jail awaiting the action
of the New Hampshire supreme court he
will quietly submit to the inevitable and
allow Sheriff Dreger to bring him back.
If he can furnish the bond he will be at
liberty and will undoubtedly prolong the
fight almost indefinitely. The question
therefore Is can he or can he not furnish a
$4,000 bond ~
The superior court Of New Hampshire
held yesterday that there is no reason in
law why the ilustrious fugitive should not
be turned over to the Minnesota authori-
ties. If a bond is furnished, the state
supreme court and perhaps the United
States supreme court will have chance
to hand down opinions In this case which
