Exeeutioner Makes Promises

MOSCOW. Feb. 21.-The assassin of
Grand Duke Sergius maintains an at
titude of profound indifference. He
declared that all the efforts OF the au-
thorities would have no result Before
his victim was laid under earth other
victims would be found The assassin
said he only acted in the interests of an
oppressed people. He claimed the deed
was an act of duty. The grand dukes
had for years violated every canon of
ordinary decency and ruined the coun-
try. He was aware that the emperor
was an innocent dupe and his party had
decided to deliver the emperor from the
evil influences surrounding him in the
hope that he some day would join in
the movement and become head of a
national government based on Western
lines. Neither the police nor their
spies, the assassin added, will be able
to protect those who are doomed to
death.

WOMAN WAS FENCE
Purchased Wheat Which Young
Boys Stole

Frank Walter and Roy Cable, two young
st. Paul boys, were sentenced to the state
training school yesterday on the charge of
stealing wheat from cars in the Great
Northern yards in Southeast Minneapolis.
At first they asserted they had been
taken into a carriage by two men who
brought them to Minneapolis and at the
point of revolvers commanded them to rob
the cars and bring the sacks to the car
riage or 1t would go hard with them"
They told this story in the court, but
afterwards recanted and said they had
made a practice of stealing wheat from
cars and selling 1t to woman in South
east Minneapolis for 35 cents sack, and
the special policeman who called upon the
woman says she admitted purchasing
wheat from boys for 35 cents a sack and
selling IT for S1.15 a bushel but she did
not encourage them to steal.
She only provided a market for stolen
goods and could see no harm in that. 1t
is expected the arrest of the female Fagin
will be ordered in few days
The boys were placed on probation for
year and the woman will have to an
swer to the court for her conduct.

ages Of rheumatism are everywhere and
genuine relief is rare "'N
l spent twenty years In experjmentine
before felt satisfied that had a certain
remedy for this dread disease-a remedy
which would not only clean out the pojson.
but one which would stop its formation.
Certain Relief
The secret lay in a wonderful chem-
ical found in Germany. When 1n,,,s
this chemical ! knew that I could male =
rheumatic cure that would be practicai i
ly certain. But even then. before r
mace an announcement - before I va g
Wiling 10 put my name on ft]I made
more than 1000 tests! And NV failnres
We're but per cent
This German chemical Is not the only
Ingredient use in DR.. Shoop's Rherma tic
Cure-but it made the REMEDY nossihia
made possible an achievement which 7
doubt not. could have been made in No
other way. - Ao
This chemical was very expensive The
duty. too, was high. In all il cost me 81 90
per pound But what Is 81 80 per Mound
for a REAL remedy for the worlds most
painful disease?-for a REAL. relief from
the greatest torture human beings know?
/ don't mean that DIR. Shoop's Rheu-
matte Cure can turn bony Joints into
flesh again-that Is impossible. But n
will drive from the blood the poison that
causes pain and swelling, and then that
is the end OF the pain and swelling-the
end of the suffering-the end of Rheurna :
tism.- That is why l can afford to make
this liberal offer-that is why can AFFORD
to spend the FIRST dollar that Rheu-
matte sufferers, the world over, may learn
of my remedy

action of that nature The conditions
of the Methodist university were aired
and the general failure of the institu-
ton to meet the expectations of it's
friends admitted. President Robertson
attributed the lack of success entirely
TO the location. Others suggested there
was no room for sectarian colleges in
the state. The matter is up to the
board of trustees, and this body may
not take action till after the meeting
of the Methodist conference in the fall.
Today's action was a victory for
President Robertson, but he failed to
secure an indorsment of his plan to
affiliate the university with the state
university at Grand Forks. Other
towns than Grand Forks are likely to
make active campaign for the location
of the university. The trustees met
and raised $4,000 to meet some press
ing bills.

FINDS HIS WIFE
VISITING JAIL BIRD
Man Discovers His Spouse Calling Upon
Federal Prisoner

There was a sensation at the county
Jail yesterday. A woman called at the in
stitution and said she was the wife of
Harvey Rogers, who is held to the federal
grand jury on the charge of using the
mails for improper purposes.
She was permitted to visit the man in a
private room and shortly after an irate
individual appeared on the scene and ask
ed for Rogers. He was informed that he
was visiting with his wife.
The man waited and when the door was
opened and he saw his wife there was a
scene. 1t appears he had intercepted a
letter from Rogers to his wife and hurried
TO the jail. The woman is said to have
made several visits to the jail and the
jailers thought she was the wife of the
man she sought to see and granted her
favors which are denied to many visitors.
1t is possible divorce may result from
