MORE DEMOCRATIC ELECTION CROOKS
SENT TO PRISON BY SUPREME COURT

James P. Mullins, nine months, $500
fine and costs: William Bergman, six
months, $500 and costs; j.. P. Kitson,
election clerk, six months, $500 and
costs; Patrick Reid, three months. In
its findings the court heaped most of
the blame of the ballot box stufing
and fraudulent voting upon James P.
Mullins, declaring him the chief Of
fender in encouraging and protecting
the repeaters in the precinct. The
court room was crowded when the
sentences were announced, and the
prisoners all took their fate sto-
ically.
Attorney John S. Taylor served notice
on the court of an appeal on a writ
of error to the United States supreme
court, and asked that the respondents
in all the contempt cases be allowd
until February 1 to file a bill of ex-
ceptions. The court granted the re-
quest.

JAMES LITTLE BROTHER.

Last year my little brother he
Got lots of Christmas toys;
They give him twice as much as me,
And let him make a noise
On horns and drums and things all
day,
And didn't scold nor fret
The angels they've took him away
And he's in heaven yet.
When | was feelin' bad last year
Cause he got cars and bears
And all the nice things, purity near,
From nearly ever!wheres,
My mother said: He's lame, you
know,
And can't run out and coast
Like you can on the ice. and SO
That's why he gets the most"
l wished that I'd "a been lame, too,
Like him, and pale and thin,
For mebby I'd Of got a zoo
And fort with soldiers in
And books about the queens and kings
That live across the sea;
Most everybody brought him things
And didn't think OF me.
Aunt Grace and Uncle Arthur they
Sent him a rockin' chair,
That he set down in most all day.
with toys piled round him there,
And mother looking at him sad.
And when the bell wud ring
They'd fetch in soinethin' else he had,
Cause he got everything.
s,pose this year I'll get a lot
OF Christmas things ats fine;
Most every toy that comes III not
Be meant for him, but mine.
Ii don't believe I'll want them. though
Cause every n I see
I'll think would be for him II he
Was still down here below,
All pale and thin and lame, you know
wish at God would let them go
And bring him back to me.

LITTLE HENRY'S PAS PA.

My pa is always tellin' me when |
want things to wear
Or play with or to eat, that he had no
such things back there
When he was only eight or nine and
had to do the chores
And always pitch in, rain or shine, to
help around out doors.
He's always tellin' me about the work
that he could do
And how his pa would send him out to
get half frozen through,
A-milking cows or pitching hay down
for the calves and sheep,
With schools about two miles away
and snowdrifts always deep.
And gee. the lickin's that he got if he
would play or shirk!
My pas pa hardly ever thought of any
thing but work;
Pa never had a single toy or got toe
anywhere
And he was tickled, as a boy, with
anything to wear.
The funny thing about it, though. is
that it seems, somehow,
To make him kind of proud. and so he
brags about it now
If pa was such a mean old rat I'd feel
SO cheap and small
I'd not let on to my boy that I'd had a
ma at all. S. E. Kiser.

BIG BUILDING SALE ON
THOMAS LOWRY'S NEW YORK
VISIT HAS TO DO WITH GUAR
ANTY BUILDING TRANSFER.

Negotiations are on for the sale Of
the Guaranty building to the Metro
politan Life Insurance company.
Thomas Lowry, president Of the Guar
anty Loan Building company, left for
New York last week presumably to
negotiate for, the transfer Of the big
office building For several months
the sale Of this building has been con-
sidered, and it. is believed that the
latest deal will go thru. The price is
believed to be about $1,3O0,000, nearly
all cash, above the $550,00O mort
gage with the Fidelity company of
Philadelphia. H. ....r> g..
The Guaranty building is owned by
a company in which the Lowrys and
the American Exchange National bank
Of New York are largely interested.
Horace Lowry is vice president of the
company and F. r. Chase Is secretary
and treasurer. q,..4.
Mr.. Chase Is out of the city and
confirmation of the news Of the sale
is not obtainable. When questioned
in New York, Mr.. Lowry said he was
down on private business. The insur-
ance company representatives in New
York said yesterday that the deal had
not been closed.

Some of the flax In North Dakota
fields is reported yellow and stunted.

seed Oil company Minnesota North
and South Dakota raised about H.
100000 bushels last year. The acre
age today Is 40 to so per cent Of that
cent. On this area the crop averages
two weeks late. In this respect the
situation is not unlike that in wheat
good growing weather is necessary.

from Hungary, so, from present indi-
cations prices may make a fair ad-

into account. The bulk of the lin
seed Oil and f1axseed in the United
States today is owned by the Ameri-
can Linseed Oil company, or the

property. This Rockefeller Influence
Is the most powerful factor in shap.

OLDER BROTHER TEsTIFIEs
Thomas H. ShevlIn Submits to scathing
Cross Examination.

In cross examination today, Thomas H.
Shevlin, the defendant in the suit brought
against him by Edwin c. Sheylin, his
brother. nearly lost his temper and it was
with great difficulty that his attorney,
Judge W. A. Lancaster, quieted him. A.
s. jackson, attorney for the plaintiff, had
misconstrued the defendants testimony
and tricked him into contradicting him
self. ~ -. ~. .t1
The morning was spent in the cross
examination. Mr.. Shevlin found 1t neces-
sary to qualify some Of his former testi-
mony. Most of this appeared to be due
purely to lapses of memory.
One point that Mr.. Jackson dwelt upon,
much to the apparent annoyance Of the
defendant, was the trading Of the 200
shares of St. Hilaire stock for the plain
tiffs interest in the J. Niels Lumber COM
pany. It appeared that Thomas Shevlin
had purchased the former stock from one
Arpen for $4,000 and that he traded it to
the plaintiff for $4,000 worth Of stock in
the Niels company. Mr.. Jackson spoke
sarcastically of the benevolence.

CAR HAS SENT
A WATCH TO HIM
SOUVENIRS ORDERED FOR MAN
NOW HERE.
Robert LinLhart Built Cottonseed
Oil Mill in Russian Turkestan and
His Work Caused the Ruler OF
Russia to Grant Special Recogni-
ton.

Robert Linkhart Of Dayton, Ohio,
a guest of the Allen hotel, has been
notified by a number Of official docu-
ments bearing the names of Prince
Kotzebue, Court Chamberlain Tolstoy
and other high Russian dignitaries,
that Car Nicholas II. has presented
him with a gold watch and chain as
recognition for his services to the
imperial household, or appanage, as
it is called in the docum ents.
The watch is already in this coun-
try, but Mr.. Linkhart is so busy in
stalling the machinery at the Mime
sofa Linseed Oil mill in this city that
he has not had time to arrange to
have it forwarded. AS the watch was
specially made by the Imperial watch
makers in st. Petersburg, it is safe
conclusion that it will prove hand
some and valuable timepiece, for the
car does nothing by halves when dis
tributing @fayors.
The service rendered by Mr.. Link
hart was the supervision Of the erec-
ton of a cottonseed oilmill at Barren
Ali. in Russian Turkestan. Barren
Ali is on the site Of the old city of
Merry, known once as the Queen City
Of the World" and having a popula-
ton OF over 100000. Linkhart was
sent out by the Buckeye works of
Dayton, with which he is connected.
The journey to Odessa in southern
Russia, thru the Caucasian noun
tains to Baku, over the Caspian sea
and then over the trans Caspian rail-
way, was novel and interesting to the
American. The oilnill built by the
| American must have fulfilled every
requirement Of the cars servants,
for it was on their Recommendation
| that the value of the services was rec
ognized by a personal gift. The watch
and chain is accompanied by an i'm
| perial diploma testifying to Mr.. Link.

session Of the legislature. Of this
amount, Mum has drawn $13,500,
Wilson $500, and the balance has
gone into general expenses, a large
chunk of which is the amount paid
to Fred G. Ingersoll, the referee.
