Pottery from England That Myatlfieu
and Amused Milwaukseans.
An array Of curious yellow dishes,
with quaint scraggy notices IN un-
familiar dialect has been the centre
Of attraction in the window Of q china
store on Milwaukee street for the last
few days. and many persons have stop
ped to spell out the adages and to
wonder where the curious stuff came
from. A few are familiar with II, but
most persons are unaware that the
"Aller Vale" ware. as It is called
comes from Newton Abbot. in Devon
shire, England and that the notices
are in the Deyonshire dialect. New
ton Abbot is about twenty miles from
Exeter and the pottery is an old one.
The ware is a peculiarly rich, deep,
yellow faience, with simple but enec-
tive decoration IN dark green and a
deep brown-red, and the shapes are
delightfully."- quaint. A cream jug

Several Of the "Devonshire Dishes"

are called, bear Burns's wellknown
grace traced within.
Some hae meat and Gamma eat,
Some hae nae meat and want It;
But we hae meat and we can eat.
And so the Lord be thankit.
An eminent Congregational divine
Of Milwaukee strolling past the china
store window saw the queer pottery
and wandered in. He was much
struck with the bowls bearing this
grace Of Burns, and remarked
thoughtfully to the storekeeper:
Now, If l were to buy one Of these
dishes for each of my family. should
think I might thereby be relieved from
the duty OF saying grace three times a
day"
Besides the bowls and cream jugs
and teapots, there are fat posset cups
and tall "tygs," as the three-handled
cups, something like a loving cup, are
called.--Milwaukee Evening Wiscon.

WILL DONATE RIGHT OF WAY TO
RAILROAD COMPANY.
Every Effort Will be Made by Citi-
zens to Secure Building
of Railway.

j. w. Speelman was in the
city yesterday from Buena Vista
and while here gave his views re-
garding the building of the new
Red Lake railway through Blu
ena Vista into Bemidji. Mr..
Speelman is very enthusiastic
over the prospects for securing
the railroad and says that the
feeling in and around Buena
Vista is the same. He stated
that every farmer in the vicinity
Of Buena Vista was deeply inter
ested in having the proposition
90 through and that they have
already offered to give the com
pany right of way through their
lands free of charge.
81 have every reason to be-
lieve, said Mr.. Speelman, "that
with the encouragement the com,
pany has already received from
the citizens of Bemidji and what
they will receive from residents
near Buena Vista, that the rail
way will be built. It means
much to the people of both towns
anda united efforton the part ofthe
business men should be made to
insure for a certainty the build
ing of the railway. We are all
| deeply interested in the matter
and it means thousands of dollars
to us.

Grand Jury Brings Bill

Murder in First Degree.

Work of Body Will Probably be
Completed Tonight Court
Proceedings.

The grand jury last night
brought in an Indictment against
Paul Fournier and James Wesley
for the killing of N. Q. Dahl and
his daughter, Aagot, last April.
More than Is witnesses were ex-
amined and the case has taken up
a large part of the attention of
the jury since they came into
session. The Indictment is the
result of much careful deIibera-
ton on the part of every mem Der
of that body
Speculation has been rife in
the entire northern part of the
state as to what action the grand
jury would take regarding the
two Dahl suspects, and it will be
a relief to many to know that
sufficient evidence has been ad
duced to hold the two men for
trial.
It is probable that Fourier
will be held until the spring term
of court. or at least until
''Shorty' has been captured, as
it is believed by the authorities
that he will give up the entire
story upon his arrest.
The work Of the grand jury is
practically ended and it is
thought that they will adjourn
tonight. During the day they
inspected the county poor farm
and jail, taking dinner at the
former place. The members
we're highly pleased at the condi
ton of both institutions and
warmly complimented the keep
ers of each.

whether all the evidence will be

Election Contest FiledAgainst
Messrs. Loud, Harris
and Danaher.
CLAIM OF SEVETY.SIX ILLEGAL
VOTERS AT TENSTRIKE.
Primary at Tenstrike and Port
Hope Called False, Fraudu.
lent, Undue and Void

Papers were this afternoon
filed with the clerk of court in
three contest cases resulting
from the recent primary election.
John F. Gibbons disputes the
right of Herbert j. Loud to have
his name placed upon the official
election ticket as the candidate
of the republican party of Bel
trami county for county attorney,
Charles Swedback contests the
same right against j. 0. Harris
for register OF deeds and J. O.
Johnson bring a like contest
against A. w. Danaher. Mr.. b.
F. Crawford is attorney for each
of the contestants.
The complaint in all three
cases are similar and that in the
case of the county attorney may
be cited as showing the grounds
alleged for the contest in each
case. The complaint declares
that the primary election at Ten
strike was "fraudulertly ard
corruptly" conducted, that at
least rs persons who were not
qualified to vote were allowed to
vote, that many of these were not
of legal age, that a great many,
to-wit, 66, were not residents of
the Tenstrike election district
and that many of these were not
even residents of the county of
Beltrami or of the state of Min
nesota; that one of the clerks of the
election, named Ryan, had whis-
key bottles with him throughout
the day and became so intoxi-
Gated that he was unable to as
sist in counting the ballots. that
A. W. Danaher, one of the candi-
dates, went into the voting booths
with at least five voters and as.
sisted them in marking their bal,
lots; that the initials of the Judges
were not placed on large mum,
Der of the ballots until after
the ballots were taken from the
ballot box after the close of the
election; that the number of
votes used and the mum Der of
votes returned to the county aud
itor does not equal the number
of votes sent to the Tenstrike
district by at least twenty.
The complaint also alleges that
at least fifteen unqualified voters
were allowed to cast their bal
lots at the election precinct of
the town of Port Hope and that
there were not three election
judges on the board of election
as required by law at Port Hope,
etc.
Wherefore the complaint de-
clares that the election at Ten
strike and Port Hope does not
represent the will of the people
of these precincts but that it was
''false, fraudulent, undue and
void," and prays the court that
it be so declared.
The court is asked in the sep
