NEW TRIAL
1T ORDERED
Of the Sensational Stu Of
Edwin Sheylin Against
Brother.

st. Paul, Dec. 18. The sensa.
tional suit of Edwin G. Shevlin,
against his brother, Thomas H.
Shevlin. the Minneapolis million
aire lum herman, to declare void
a transfer of stock between the
two will have to be tried again.
In an opinion today the SUI
preme court reverses the find
ings of the Hennepin district
court in ordering Judgement for
Thomas H. Shevlln and orders a
new trial as settlement of the
difficulty.
The decision is a victory for
Edwin G. Shevlin, the younger
brother, in that the court practi-
cally holds that undue. influence
characterized the transfer of
stock IN the Crookston Lum Der
company, owned by Edward
Sheylin, to Thomas Shevlin.
The litigation between the two
brother grew out of the transfer
in 1908 of 200 shares of stock in
the Crookston Lum Der company,
owned by Edwin G. Shevlin, to
Thomas H. Shevlin for a consid-
GRAFTON of $4,000, of which $780,
900, was in cash.

Burly Chairman Of County
Board Meets His Waterloo

NOODSMAN ADMINISTERS Sc
WERE TROUNCING.
Trouble Was Brought on by
Danaher. Who Withdrew
After Getting Enough.

Anuy Dananef, chairman OF
the board of county commits
sioners, ex professional wrestler
and bartender, was yesterday
given sound drubbing at Ten
strike by a woodsman.
The trouble started Saturday
afternoon about 2o'clock. Dana.
her and another man were stand
ing in the lobby of the Stechman
hotel, talking. After their con-
versation had been finished the
man with whom Danaher had had
the conversation withdrew and
began talking with Neil Mooney,
a woodsman. Danaher walked
up to the two men and attempted
to get into the compensation and
Mooney objected, telling Dana
her. that the conversation was a
private one. Danaher became
angry and after a few words bad
been passed between the two
men Danaher pulled off his coat
and invited Mooney to fight. The
latter refused, saying that he
had no grievance against Dana
her. The county board chair
man persisted, however, and
finally used much profane and
indecent languagein the presence
of a number of ladies who had
heard the disturbance. Mooney
stood the fusilade of profanity
for some time and finally con.
sented to fight with Danaher.
Mooney withdrew from the hotel
and walked to the M. & I. tracks,
a half block distant, Danaher
following him. When the latter
had reached the point where
Mooney was awaiting his arrival
Danaher 'baked up" and went
to the Hotel Richards, where he
remained for some time, after
wards retiring at the Leonard
saloon.
He arose yesterday morning
and went to the Stechman hotel,
where the event of the evening
before was discussed. Danaher
said that he could whip Mooney
and upon being informed that
the latter was at the Richards
hotel he went to this establish

victim. Mooney was sitting on
a whiskey barrel in the bar room
of the hotel when Danaher enter
ed. The latter walked up to him,
pulled him off the barrel and in
vited him to fight. Mooney rep.
lied that he did not want to
create any disturbance, but after
Dannaher had called him vile
names for several minutes he
consented to fight. Both men
went out into the street and took
off their coats. Danaher made a
rush at the woodsman but the
latter stopped him with two vici-

THIS VAC
4 ''PROFESH''
McElroy Prefers Life
Within Walls of
Prison.

McElroy, white man, was sent to
the reef yesterday by Police Magis-
trate Whitney for long term. The
charge was vagrancy.
1t was not the first time McElroy
had heard the same sort of sentence
on the same old charge. McElroy IS a
professional "vag." He prefers the
comforts of the Oahu Prison, with its
regular meals, regular hours for sleep
and work and having all his expenses
paid by the government, to the uncer-
tainty of life outside the prison walls.
When free, McElroy does not seem
to know how to get work to procure
the wherewithal to provide meals, lodg-
ings and clothing. It is too strenuous
an existence for him. and he seeks
shelter at the police station, and asks
to be sent back to prison. He has been
here about four years, and most of the
time has lived at the coral hotel.

LAWSUIT 800 YEARS OLD.
Case Involving French Millions Has
Been Pending That Length
of Time.

Jean Thiery, who died in 1876 at
Venice. leaving a fortune of 81, 600 900.
was indeed benefactor of the legal pro-
fession. Every since his demise littga-
ton has been going on about his will
and still continues. In 1871 the claim
ants to the Thiery estate were found to
number 1000. A. NJ. and Nine, Revol
are now cheerfully engaged in litigation
with the fond hope of obtaining the ac-
cumulated fortune, which, if it exists,
must be enormous. There is, however.
doubt whether it does exist says a re-
cent account.
The case is as beautifully complicated
as the most legal mind could wish Thi-
cry left his money to relatives in France.
who never claimed it and the fortune re-
NAMED in the Bank of Venice. Toward
the latter years Of the seventeenth CEN
fury some forgers appear to have con-
cocted spurious warrant from the king
of France making the estate over to
them. They were found out and the
deed was revoked.
Throughout the eighteenth century
the case was carried from court to court
in France and at Venice In 1896 Gen
Bonaparte was ordered by the govern
ment Of the French republic to claim the
Thiery estate. Shortly afterward he
occupied Venice, and whether or not he
then appropriated the money to pay his
troops is still moot point. During the
last century. in the seventies. a Mrs.
Cotton devoted her energies. without re-
suit, to suing the French government
for the Thiery estate.
About ten years ago Nine 2oussel
took a hand in the game. The present
claimants. M and Nine Revol. have
just lost q preliminary suit before the
council of state because they could not
prove that the Thiery fortune was in
the Bank OF Venice at the time of the
French occupation of Bonaparte, nor
consequently. that the latter had appro-
prieted the funds, but they are going
hopefully on with their case.

" n WEEDS.

A Communication.
Roswell truly presents a ragged APP
pearance at the present time, with
all the vacant lots and many of the
streets grown over with weeds and
c~ockleburs. Solomon said Il went
by the field of the sluggard and by
the vineyard of the man void of I'M
d~erstanding, and 10. it was all grown
over with thorns, and nettles had
covered the face Thereof"
Surely our citizens will not rest
under the stigma of sluggards and
allow the e. to a h town.
The present conditions are a menace
to the health of our people, and are
not such as to impress the visitor
with the beauty of our city or the en-
! terprise of our citizens. Some few
have moved the weeds along their
premises, but by far the more have
not.
The city should see that the weeds
in the streets are cut before going
TO seed and that owners of vacant
lots dc likewise. Cut the weeds now
during the hot. dry weather, when
they will be withered by the burning
sun. The ground will soon become
dry, and many cases of sickness will
be prevented H.

that line arrangements have been per
fected for special service leaving Fort

schedule being such as to put dele
gates and friends in Denver early the

In addition to the always up-to-daIe
regular service available via. that
route, which includes palace sleepecs
and cafe cars, the special arrange
ments also provide for the operation
Of first class Pullman tourist sleep
ers, through, in which entirely salts

sis of two persons to a double berth,
individual expenses for through sleep
