new LAWS TAKE: EFFECT
Resume of important Laws that Be-
came Effective July 4th and
Make Radical Changes.

Ninety-seven of the laws which the
last general assembly passed went into
effect on July 4th. The other 125 new
laws went into effect with their publi-
cation. The following is resume Of
some of the more important new laws:
Among the new laws which went
into effect Monday is the one
which makes the assault with intent to
commit murder punishable by maxi
mum sentence of thirty instead of ten
years. This act was gotten through by
Senator Saunders, of Pottawatamie
county. The theory on which no publ
cation clause was attached to it is not
known. If it was good law and really
was desirable, it would appear to have
been as valuable to have had it
apply to- the assaults with intent
to commit murder which have been COM
mitted since the legislature adjourned
as to the assaults which are committed
after that date.
The juvenile court law is another
statute which went into effect July 4
1t provides for the administration OF
the criminal code as to children under
sixteen years of age, within the discre-
ton of the district court.
At present youthful offenders must
be tried and sent to prison if found
guilty, just as their older brothers in
crime. The new law will leave some
thing to the discretion of the court il
the juvenile offender is under sixteen
and has not committed murder. The
court may allow him to go, may put him
in new home or may place him in
another state institution.
Still another extremely important
law which has become effective is that
| which provides that all boards, commits
sions, departments and officers of state
must turn into the state treasury all the
fees that they collect and to file with
the executive council statements of ex.
penses and per diem allowance to be
paid by the state. This measure will
prevent boards from paying themselves
out of the fees they collect, but vii
compel them to account to the state
treasury. 1t was thought that this
would afford a much better check on the
state boards which collect fees. 1t does
not apply to one or two.

biles went into effect Monday. 1t limit.

number have registered their machine
already, but additional hundreds are ex
pected in the coming week.

Cured of Chronic Diarrhoea After
Ten Years Suffering. +.

II wish to say a few words in praise
of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy says Mrs. Matte
Burge, of Martinsville, Va, II suffered
from chronic diarrhoea for ten years and
during that time tried various remedies
without obtaining relief. Last summer
one Of my children was taken with
cholera morbus, and procured a bottle
of this remedy. Only two doses were
required to give her entire relief.
then decided to try the medicine myself
and did not use all of one bottle before
was we'll and have never since been
troubled with that complaint. One can
not say too much in favor of that Won
derful medicine" This remedy is for
sale by L. P. Van Werden.

Brutally Tortured.

A case came to light that for persis-
tent and unmerciful torture has perhaps

tism and nothing relieved me though l
tried everything known. l came across
Electric Bitters and it's the greatest

JIMMY CORMICAN
HAS A NEW SHOW
High Class Vaudeville Under Canvas
Is Now Drawing the Crowds

Jimmy Cormican's latest theatrical
venture is 'shigh-class vaudeville under
canvas" He is the manager and sole
proprietor of the Capital Vaudeville
theater, now playing a five weeks en-
gagement in tent on Wabasha street,
between Summit avenue and Central
avenue.
aNThere's nothing but artists-in this
show, said Jimmy last night, as he
told in an enthusiastic way of the sue
cess of his latest venture. 1--WE are
turning people away night after night
and expect to enlarge the tent next
week"
Jimmy Cormican is known to the
theatergoers of st. Paul as the gentle
manly little fellow who passes water
at the Metropolitan opera house during
the theatrical season. He. first con-
celved the idea of getting a show of his
own about year ago.
Jlmmy'S first venture was in comedy.
Up in the little loft of his fathers barn,
on Wabasha street, a stage was fitted
up and seats were arranged for about
two score of people. Jimmy selected
his cast with much care and carefully
drilled the actors for two weeks or
more A penny was the price of adj
mission and the night of the show the
loft was crowded, notwithstanding the
fact that ladder of uncertain stability
had to be assembled to reach the thea
ter.
The boys next venture was in the
barn, but this time the entire barn was
used and the ladder was dispensed
with. The price was also increased to
cents and people were turned away
And now comes the young managers
latest venture. High class vaudeville
in a tent. From the penny show in
the barn loft Jimmy has reached the
stage where it costs to see his show,
and the neighbors' children are no
longer admitted free. His friends pre-
dict that he will some day own cir
Gus or musical comedy of large pro-
portions.
Say, just let them know that this is
no longer kid affair." said Jimmy last
night. I'VE have real vaudeville actors
and pay them good, money. We don't
show on Sunday, but Monday night we
are going to have change of bill. Say,
our shows great; you should come up
and see it,

HATCHERY SUFFERS
Saturdays Storm Destroys
Trees and Fish Pond

The storm early Saturday morning
developed into a genuine cyclonic dis
turbance at the state fish hatchery at
Indian Mounds park. Trees were up
rooted and others so bent that they
are ruined. and the rainfall was so
heavy that large section of the en-
bankment surrounding the fish pond
was washed away
. THE storm broke in its fury at 2
o'clock" said S. F. Fullerton, execu-
tive agent of the game and fish COM
OMISSION, Who with his family, is
spending the summer at the hatchery.
s'Four of the fine young trees that we
ralad set out at the hatchery grounds
We're pulled up bodily by the roots,
while fifty trees were so badly bent
by the force of the wind that they
will have to be cut down and replaced
Others were damaged, but we expect
to save them. We had twelve men
employed at the hatchery yesterday
in clearing up the debris caused by
the storm.
= THE torrent of water coming down
from the hills brought great quantities
of sand, and wall of water and earth
four feet high swept down on the flats
and ruined the grass. The deluge
washed away 800 feet of the earth en-
bankment of the fish pond at the
hatchery, but none of the fish got
away. 1t was about the worst storm
that ever struck st. Paul, and was es-
pecially severe at the hatchery"

in the house. The blaze was extin-
guished by Mr.. Sima and no one was
injured.

ing was damaged to the extent of $500,
