B0OKKEEPER LOCKED UP
CHARLES STRAIE is ACCUSED OF
F,MBEZZLENIENT FROM THE
FLOUR CITY ORNAMENTAL
IRON WORKS COMPANY.

Charles Strale, 1916 Vine place,
head bookkeeper, for the Flour City
Ornamental Iron works company, was
arrested this morning by Detectives
Hansen and Helm, charged with en-
bezzlement.. The complaint was issued
upon information of the officers of the
concern and it Is said that Strale's
defalcation;s amount to considerable
sum. He will be arraigned to-mor-
row.
For several months members Of the
firm have suspected that all was not
right with Strale's books and an expert
was put to work upon them. He soon
found large shortages and Strale was
confronted with the charge. At first
he maintained that his books were
straight, but at last is said to have
acknowledged that he had taken some
sum Of the firms money but denied
that he had taken as much as the ex-
animation revealed. ..-.-
While Strale is locked up under a
formal charge Of embezzlement, no
warrant has yet been issued for his
arrest This will be done, however
as soon as the expert accountant can
complete his examination of the books
and learn the exact amount Of the de-

G. M. Loring, elected to fill the va

park commissioners. The annual re-
port Of President A. S. Adams, re-
ceived much attention. The most in

ments was the chapter on the finances
of the board which are in the best
condition they have ever been. On
this matter Mr.. Adams says: .u-.

least two-fold. First, the delnquences

JUMPERS PASTOR
MUST GO TO WORK
WITNESSES SOB AND PRAY AT
WERME'S TRIAL.
Judge Dickinson, After Hearing the
Evidence, Gives the Man the
Choice of Earning His Living OF Of
Going to the WOrkhOuse.

There was a religious demOnstra-
ton in police court this morning when
E. J. Verne, minister of the Holy
Jumpers sect was tried on a charge
of Vagrancy and given the choice be-
tween manual labor orsa term at the
workhouse. Witnesses prayed, sobbed
and refused to take the oath of earthly
tribunals, and the regular procedure
was carried thru only by resorting to
tact.
Verne came here about month
ago and allied himself with the Holy
Jumpers" of South Minneapolis. He
preached occasionally and held evan
gelistic services on his own RESPONSE
bility. He had no money, but stayed
a day at the home Of each of his new
ly made acquaintance who came to
hear him preach. He began to re-
peat his visits and finally took up his
abode at the home of John Ferman,
a baker. Mrs. Ferman ordered him
from the house, but he refused to go,
saying that he was working for God
and Gods people should take care of
him. Mrs. Ferman had him arrested
Saturday on a charge of vagrancy and
appeared as the chief complaining
witness.
When she was told to take the oath
she raised her hands above her head
and began to pray aloud. Her devo-

Clerk Peter Nelson, who repeated the
request that she be- sworn. At this
she refused to swear by any earthly
power. Judge Dickinson put her at
ease on this matter and persuaded her
to agree to tell the truth. After tes-
tifying she cried during the remainder
of the trial.
Other persons told the court that
Verne was supported by freewill Of
ferings. .'... .-..
Only one witness testified in favor
of the preacher and that was Rev.
Otto Brauer the leader of the sect in
Minneapolis. When asked how
Verne made a living Brauer said he
trusted in God and thus far had been
clothed and fed. Werme's only tes-
timony was that he had been a
preacher for twenty-seven years and
in all that time had done no manual
labor.
well, you had better go to work.
said Judge Dickinson, for if you don't
you will go to the Workhouse, where
you will have to. 1t is all right for
you to preach, but you must make
your own living if you have no pas
torate and not impose on the good will
of these hard working people. Work
in the daytime and preach all you
want to at night
After the trial the complaining wit
nesses gathered around Verne and
gave him Gods blessing to cheer him
while looking for work.

AT $1,000 A FRONT FOOT
S. ALEXANDER BUYS n LOT AD-
JOINING HIS PROPERTY ON
LET.

S. Alexander has bought, thru
Thorpe Brothers the lot next north
Of his place Of business on Sixth
street between Nicollet and Hen
nepin avenue from A. H. Kenyon for
$4,000, or little over $1,000 q foot.
The lot is 44x157 feet with small
brick building upon it, which cuts no
figure in the sale. Mr.. Alexander left
for California Saturday night. Before
leaving he announced the lease Of his
other property for ten years to a Mil
Waukee firm. The labor headquarters
are in this building and it is consid-
cred a fair investment. 1t is UNDER
stood that the lease calls for the addi-
tioin Of enough stories to make the
building six stories.
Coming close upon the three Badger
sales Of last week a block above on
Seventh street the movement is con-
templated by the real estate men with
pleasure as Indicating much activity
the coming summer.
