JUDGE DRIVES BOYS
FROM COURT ROOM
Judge Kelly Declares Criminal
Branch Bad School for
Youths.

Boys who would more properly be
in school will not be permitted to loiter
in this court room; and before we pro-
coed further shall ask the sheriff to
clear the room of all who are not of
proper age to remain"
These words, delivered by Judge
Kelly from the bench in the criminal
branch of the district court, yesterday
afternoon, filled an interval in the trial
Of Anton Zarembrinski and Joseph
Brill, accused of highway robbery.
Both the speech and the manner in
which 1t was delivered were strikingly
characteristic of Judge Kelly. County
Attorney Kane had just completed his
the court, in a mild tone, that at first
barely attracted the attention Of those
who sat before him. said:
while it is the unpleasant duty Of
the court and the jury to try cases Of
this kind experience has shown us
that it Is an exceeding bad school for
boys. In looking about this room
have noticed a great many VINO 1 am
sure cannot be more than fifteen years
Of age. They should not be here. They
would more properly be in school and
will not be permitted to loiter in this
court room; and before we proceed
further l shall ask the sheriff to clear
the room Of all who are not of proper
age to remain

lated among the spectators the crowd
in the rear of the court room was per-

TRANSFER OF REALTY
MUST BE IN WRITING
Decision of United States Circuit
Court Is Affirmed.

Judge Handkerchief. Of the United
States circuit court of appeals, yester-
day handed down two opinions, one
affirming a decision of the circuit court
for the district of Minnesota, and one
reversing a decision Of the circuit
court for the Southern district of Iowa.
The Minnesota case was that of
Levi D. York against Jed L. Washburn,
of Duluth. Suit was brought by York
to recover certain earnest money paid
to Washburn to secure a lease for min
ing property in the northern part Of
the state. The defense which was
held valid, was that the agreement was
merely oral, and therefore not binding
under the Minnesota law requiring all
contracts for the transfer of realty to
be in writing. The case was dismissed.
The Iowa case was brought to the
circuit court of appeals by the Chicago
& North Western railroad, against
which damages were awarded by the
circuit court in favor of John L. An
drews, of Scranton, Iowa, who was in
jured while crossing the tracks Of the
railroad in that town, Jan. "a, 1901.
Judge Handkerchief held that Andrews
could not recover because he did not
exercise sufficient caution in crossing
the track. A new trial is granted.

WILL GO TO COURTS
Trading Stamp Measure Passed
but Dispute Is Not Ended.

It was lsvident at the meeting OF
the assembly last evening that both
sides OF the trading stamp controversy
realize that the dispute will be trans
ferred to the courts.
The trading stamp people failed to
make an appearance before the city
Legislative body, and the retailers de-
string the passage of the ordinance had
but two representatives in attendance
10 watch the course of events.
ASsemblyman Arnold furnished the
sole argument on the question, asking
II the ordinance. would apply to mer-
chants who are giving out checks on
tnelr own account. On being assured
that 1t did not he withdrew his objec-
uon, and the ordinance was adopted by
unanimous vote.
The provisions of the ordinance,
which now goes to the mayor, are that
the trading stamp companies pay a
license Of $500 a year, and that deal
ers be assessed 500 a year A failure
10 conform to the provisions of the
ordinance subjects the delinquent to a
fine of as much as 500.

COUNCIL WILL SAY
Assembly Passes Ordinance
Regulating Hotel Runners.

AT the meeting of the upper branch
or the city council last evening AS
SembIyman Whitcomb secured the pas
sage OF an ordinance regulating hotel
runners. A license of $25 is to be ex-
acted and provision made for the re-
vocation Of the license by the coun-
Gil.
The hotel runners at present are
working under a police regulation that
merely prescribes where they shall
stand and do business, this measupe
having superseded an ordinance licens-
Ing them. The difference between the
Whitcomb licensing ordinance and the
like measure in force previous to the
present regulation Is that it is neces-
sary to apply to the council and re-
ce1Ve permission to do business, in
stead of dealing only with the city
clerk ''''' A15sssE .'-,- -...-
Assemblyman Haas objected to the
license idea upon the ground that when
the former ordinance was in force it
resulted in permission being granted
to pickpockets, and Assemblyman
Wheeler said that he did not doubt
this, as he had been taken for a farmer
by a. runner.
Assembiyman Whitcomb Insisted
upon the passage of the ordinance and
1t went through under suspension Of
the rules.

FUGITIVE FOR YEARS.
MURDERER CAUGHT
BarthoIOma Lablera Must An
sWer for Death of ManWhose
Wife He Betrayed.

For ten years Bartholoma Labiera,
alleged murderer, evaded the officers of
the law, but a few days ago he was
captured in a small town In Roseau
county, near the Canadian border, and
yesterday passed through st. Paul in
charge of Philipa Sayula, sheriff of
Kanazia, Youcatan county, Mexico, the
scene of the crime.
The story of the offense for which
Labiera must answer possesses it's ro-
mantle as we'll as it's criminal features.
Some ten years ago Labiera went to
Youcatan county and pretended that
his visit was for the purpose Of pur-
chasing an interest in a ranch owned
by John T. Benson, who had recently
located there, coming from Edwards
county, Texas. There was a Mrs. Ben
son and she was handsome and she
was. winSome. Labiera was also hand
some and he was daShing.
For a time Benson was unSuspecting,
going to the extent of chastising some
of his former friends who suggested
that there was a likelihood that Mrs.
Benson was too friendly with the hand
some stranger. Benson believed that
he was able to attend to his own fam
lily affairs
But one day Benson witnessed some
thing that caused him to believe the
reports that had been circulated and
there was a scene between him and
Labiera, the dashing young man who
had wormed himself into the confidence
OF Mrs. Benson and many other mem
bers of the community. What hap
pened at that time is not known.
Benson Found Dead.
What is known is that Benson was
found dead a few days later and CO.
incident with his undoubted murder
Labiera disappeared. The usual legal
proceedings resulted in the formal in
dlctment and the beginning of the
hcers for years seemed to be in vain,
innumerable false clues being followed
In the effort to locate the alleged muir
derer. The case was forgotten in de-
tail by the people in the neighborhood
until news came that Labiera had been
arrested in the northern part of Min
nesota. The sheriff came on as soon
as the proper papers could be prepar-
ed.
Labiera, the prisoner is a fine ap-
pearing man even after having spent
ten years as a fugitive from Justice,
fearful of apprehension from day to
day. Typical of the Mexican race, from
which he springs, he goes back to face
a trial that may mean the sacrifice of
his life without apparent fear, TAX
ing the position that ten years is a
long time, in which it is possible that
many Of the material witnesses NAV
nave forgotten or will conveniently fail
to remember just what occurred so
long ago.
