SAYS AMEs MUST CONE BACK.
Judge Harrison Gives 1t Out That Action
Must Be Taken

Judge Harrison, of the district court
OF Hennepin county, created a sensation
yesterday morning, when he announced
from the bench that it was the desire
of the district court that Mayor A A.
Ames be brought back to Minneapolis for
trial. Judge Harrison pointed out that
there existed a public impression to the
erect that judges of the court did not
want a case against Ames tried
This impression, Judge Harrison de-
clared, was absolutely false and he added
that all the judges were anxious to have
Ames brought back for trial
THE fact of the matter isl said the
court, due diligence has not been eXer-
cised il. this matter. Concerning the
bonds Of Ames there were lax methods in
dealing with them from the beginning
Last summer instructions were given the
county attorney to proceed against the
bordSmen for Norbeck. but suit has new
er been brought up to the present time.
The court ordered that suit should not
only be brought on the Norbeck bond,
but also that proceedings should be be-

reply at the time. but later asserted to

By order of the court every effort will

There is nothing to prevent children
from taking up music as naturally as
reading and writing. The notes and
the alphabet should be learned at the
same time as, l am glad to say, they
have been for several years in some
Of our public schools. At 5 and
most children learn to sing easily, and
little songs and exercises should be
mingled with the lessons of the pri-
mary reading and spelling book. Some
knowledge Of music should form a
part of every chid's education. At the
same time. it is very evident that it is
useless to compel children to take a
long course of musical study when
they have no special aptitude for it.
L have had girls confide to me that
they dreaded the coming of the music
teacher and would never do any prac-
t1cing on the piano unless compelled
to, and yet the mothers of these girls
persisted in wasting money and, what
is still more precious, time in abso-
lutely forcing their daughters to con-
tinue the study.
Such unwilling scholars can never
become musicians in the mildest sense
of the word and they should be let,
after learning the general principles
OF music, to give it up.-Exchange.

The Wandering Shade,

AS I wandered down the street no
ticed that the said street was paved
with divers and many powders which
doubtless were the remains Of some
ancient fortifcation. They were rough
and full of seams and ridges and val
leys, and l marveled greatly how the
people of this otherwise. progressive
modern city stood for it.
Just then a passing vehicle caught
my fancy.
'Gadzooks and by dernv' thought I,
''but methinks l will have a ride; for
not since the days when we rode in
sedan chairs and upon joggly war
horses have ridden save on the wings
of a thin mist.
So climbed upon the wagon and
smiled ghostly smile of rare content
ment
''By castor and jingv quoth 1, 'but
this is the real thingy'
Just then, however, we struck another
of the powdered places, and, alas my
spectral spine was driven into my an
cient and honorable skull so that l was
forced to fade away swiftly and reer
ganize.
For, by my halidom! nothing of the
days of yore was ever so soul-destroy-
ing as the things l snag upon in this
modern city.-San Francisco Bulletin.

jects with the collectors Of antique
furniture, and those gathered by DIR.
Grim make, collection that is one of
the finest in the country.
When DR.. Grim started out as a
young man he began to collect furni-
ture. Among the most interesting
pieces is bed built for and used by
Gen. Lafayette when he came to Bal
timore in 1925. The bed has four
high posts, with canopy, and is made
Of mahogany. Another bed, handsome
ly carved, was built from designs
drawn by Thomas Jefferson. A mahog-
any secretary secured by DR.. Grim
was presented to President Monroe
by the minister from France.
Another rare piece, or rather pieces,
Of French origin is a set consisting of
a sofa, two arm chairs and two side
chairs once owned by the Princess
Mathilde, daughter Of Jerome Bona
parte, king of Westphalia. 1t was
Jerome Bohaparte who came to Balti-
more, fell in love with the beautiful
Betsy Patterson, Baltimore belle, and
married her, only to desert her at the
command of his brother, the great
Napoleon.
A dining table used in the white
owned by Luther Martin, one of Mary
lands great lawyers, and another by
Chancellor Bland, the first chancellor
Of Maryland, are also embraced in the
collection. Two chairs, a settee and
table that once occupied a place in
the library of Chief Justice Roger
Brooke Taney, and eight chairs that
belonged to the family of Francis
Scott Key, the author of 1.-THE Star
Spangled Banner" will come under the
hammer. Among the smaller pieces
is a wine glass used at the wedding
breakfast Of George Washington and
Martha Gusts and a knife box that
belonged to Charles Carroll, of Car
rollton.
The pictures. included in the collec-
tion embrace life-size portrait Of
Washington by Gilbert Stuart and
works Of Rembrandt, Beale, Sandrat.
Peynne and Benjamin West. Besides,
there are numbers of copper plates,
steel engravings, mezzotints, etchings,
colored prints and miniatures.
DR.. Grim had large collection of
rare autographs, including the sigma
lures Of George Washington and
Thomas JEFFERSON. What in itself
would be fair-sized collection of
clocks, bronzes and Sheffield plate is
included and will also be exhibited.
DIR. Grim had large collection of
arms, showing the style Of weapons
used at different times in the history
of American warfare. He secured
hintlocks, pixies and specimens of the
pistols used generations ago. He had
an old rifle and pike used by some
of John Browns men while defending
themselves after their raid. The col
lection includes the original bowie
knife, which was given away by its
maker, after whom it was called. An
on the sheath of the knife
tells to whom it was given and when
