Another Appearance Before
a Trial Court

DR.. A. A. Ames, the FOUR time MAYOR al
Minneapolis, will be placed on trial today

women engaged in unlawful occupations
in return for police protection
Judge w. A. Kerr has been appointed
special assistant county attorney for the
purpose of trying the case. He will not
have the assistance of any other attorney
E. S. Cary, of st. Paul, will represent Dr.
Ames.
Judge Kerr has not decided what case
will be moved for trial. but he will an
nounGe his decision this morning. The
last case tried resulted in a mistrial and
Judge Kerr said last night he had not de-
cided whether he would ask for retrial
of this case OF would select another of the
same nature.
The order appointing Judge Kerr as
special attorney directs him to take
charge of all proceedings before the grand
jury in which the former mayor may be
involved, and at his request the grand
jury was instructed to meet today.
There is an intimation that during the
trial some matters may develop which
will require the attention of the jury.
1t is possible that Fred Ames, now serv-
ing term in the penitentiary. and who
has applied for a pardon. may be brought
to Minneapolis as a witness against his
brother for. some time ago, when a for
mer application for pardon was made, it
was intimated that he was in possession
of evidence which would be of value to
the state, and should he give valuable
testimony it is believed the pardon board
would not overlook the fact.
Former Capt Charles r. Hill is in a
position to testify against the former
mayor He is under indictment. but in
order to protect himself may see fit to
tell what he knows about the corruption
which obtained not many years ago.
The case promises to be a hard fought

SIX MEN AND COSTLY
DRUGS ARE CAPTURED
Poiics Think They Have Gang of
Counterfeiters

NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-The New
York police are convinced that they
have broken up a gigantic drug swim
die by the arrest of several men on
information that we'll known proprie-
tary medicines were counterfeited
and sold as genuine. The investigation
is not complete.
Drugs seized at the apartment OF
Howard e. Wooten today, it is said,
are valued at $4,000. Wooten is one
of the men under arrest. The others
are Simon 3. Minden, Manville
Thomas, Charles S. Horn, Charles F.
Risley and Walter S. Hockey.
1t is asserted by local detectives
that slips were found giving the names
country to whom mixtures, made in
New York, were sold. 1t is said that
the most important find was the cir
culars sent out to druggists and con-
tanning the code by which they could
order the preparations.
1t is alleged by the police that prep
arations made by the best known
chemical firms in Europe were coun-
teFfeited.
In circulars discovered was the
statement:
..An these goods are genuine, in
original packages and unopened"
The price list showed that the drugs
in the list were being sold at 10 to SO
per cent below the usual selling price.

1t would damn the scripture, said Dr.
Samuel G. Smith, pastor of the People $

Nothing of that sort could be found IN

course of a lecture upon "Heredity" The

for 1.-THE modern. scientific Calvinism
which teaches that every human fra1!ty

The theory has been spread partly by

The expected exposure of local condi-
tons of vice failed to materialize at the
House of Hope Presbyterian church last
night. DR.. W. H. W. Boyle. pastor of

theaters and etherlamusements, contented
himself with an evenings advice to young

manner which would take their minds
away from the serious phases of life, and
allow them to rest upon the ways of the
world.
The problems Of life from boyhood to
manhood were DISCUSSED in q general way.
and numerous examples cited where great
ness had been achieved through strict at
tention to the line of work chosen for a
life study.
Glitch Your, Wagon to STAR was
the theme upon which the pastor based
his sermon. The that James A. Car

serious subject through first hitching his
attention to a, mule on canal tewy path
was dwelt upon to considerable length
and Garfield used as one of the stellar
instances where success can be achieved
