WINGED that he had sufficient evidence
to secure the conviction of Anton We

Usher at Black Diamond early this
month, Deputy Sheriff Hodge has ar
rested the Austrian coal miner. We
hove and the dead mans mother were
charged With the crime and given a
preliminary examination before JUS

which both We're dismissed for want of
sufficient evidence
Since that time Deputy Sheriff Hodge
has given up the theory that the
mother was an accomplice to the kill

connecting Vehove with the crime. He
secured evidence of the fact that We
hove was seen coming from the scene
of the killing Immediately after the
neighbOrs heard two revolver shots.
The revolver, with two empty shells,
was found in a trunk in Vehove's
house. He could not account for it's

Mr.. Mortimer was a British sol
der in the war with the Beers

acquainted with the conditions
there. "The natives go down

spread in the sun and dried into

examined very closely for the
precious stones, which are picked

any degree of certainty until they

up and sent down into the bow

owners will not allow them 10 be

flooded and tl,s price would 60

And the Horse Never Kicked.

There is a story, showing some
thing of he intricacies of the
English language, OF business
man, who, knowing nothing OF
horses, took his wife for a drive.
He was anxious about the dispo
sition of the horse he was to drive
and was assured by the liveryman
from whom he hired it that the
animal was perfectly safe as long
as the reins were no allowed to
become mixed up with his tail.
The city man hesitated. but was
encouraged to proceed by the as
surance: IF you just keep the
reins away from his tail he viii;
be all right" AS he returned tn
horse in the evening the livery
man said: We'll, | see you have
had no trouble" "Oh, no." said
the man; I'VE had only one show

held her umbrella over his tai:

And it is for this reason his friends
and associates try to be all the more
careful to have him surrounded by
every safeguard.
TN the first place, there are strict
orders that no one shall be even ad-
mitted to the White House who seems
to be mentally unbalanced. If a per-
son secures admission, he has first to
pass the scrutiny Of my assistant. Then
he is turned over to me. And In addt-
ton to this, there are always secret
service men at hand.
'The danger with cranks is that
they frequently are never known as
such until they do damage. Peter
Elliott of Minneapolis, who made a
scene at the White House, was not
known here at his home in Minneapo-

by Constable Powers while safely re-

Yesterday Andrews appeared on
Excelsior commons and made prepar-
atoms to take bath. He plunged into
the lake and came out blowing and
blue with cold. He was accosted by
the owner of the lighthouses and in
the conversation Andrews volunteered
the information that the last bath he
had taken was at Coney Island, N. Y.

Back to the Land" was the
theme of Commander Booth fuckers
address at the Commercial Club this
noon. Before a large audience, of
mendous sociological plan of the Sal
walton Army for the solution Of the
problem of the landless man and the
manless land. It was an appeal to
the self interests Of the business man.
He said:
that have to be dealt with and it is
purely business proposition
whether we are going to deal with
conditions in a business-like way or
allow conditions to develop until they
can't be dealt with.
ut seems to me now that we are
confronting very difficult sociological
conditions. If we want to deal with
sociological results we want to deal
with the causes and we shall find two
or three great difficulties to face now
adays.
zone fthese is the difficulty Of
| the working man in marrying and
maintaining home with any prospect
Of security. The single man and the
single woman are gradually forcing
the married man out of the market In
the city and the country. The only
way really to meet that condition is to
take that waste labor and put 1t on the
waste land The old saying, back to
the land is the only way to locate the
equilibrium between city and coun-
try.
1.-THE cities have been inhaling anc
must exhale again. The congestion o.
the social body is like the congestion
of the heart or of the lungs, which
means death. Social doctors mus

SAYS HE WAS IN CINCINNATI
WHEN ASSAULT OCCURRED
Z DRAGNET DETECTIVE ON THE
NORTH SIDE.

Dan Lamont, a vagrant arrested
FERN and John Mcleod, was ar
raigned in police court to-day charged
with criminal assault upon 13}-year-
old girl living near Brooklyn Center.
He swore that he was at his home
in Cincinnati at the time of the as
sault and could get his witnesses here
if given time. He will be allowed one
week to prepare for his examination.
! Lamont protests his innocence, tho.
he was extremely nervous when called
before the court. On the other hand,
the little girl is positive that he is
the man. More than a hundred pris-
oners were brought before her at the
workhouse,, but each time She shook
her head. When Lamont went there
wednesday she picked him out from
the consignment of sixteen prisoners
and said positively that he was the
man.
Since the Brooklyn Center affair,
other cases Of insults and one case
fof attempted assault have been re-
ported. Last week young woman
employed in downtown office was

home, when a man caught her by the
throat. She broke away from him
