TURNED DOWN ANDY.
Napoleon Declines the Gift of
$4,000 From Carnegie.
Village Council Takes a Vote
on the Proposition.
Burden Would be Too Great
on the People.
So It Is Claimed by Those Who
Oppose the Library.

From Thursdays Daily.
Mapleton has turned down Andrew
Carnegie. The village that annually
pays homage to the memory of the
Scotch poet, Bobbie Burns, has official
ly notified the library building dispenser
that it will have none of his money.
1t will be remembered that few weeks
ago the announcement was made that
Mr.. Carnegie had expressed willingness
to donate $4,000 for the construction of
library building in Mapleton, pro-
vided the council would levy tax of
$500 with which to maintain the insti-
tuition. There has been considerable dis
cussion among the residents of the vii
lage over the proposition, many adj
vocating that it be declined.
At meeting of the village council
Tuesday evening the question Of re-
jecting or accepting the, $1,000 under the
conditions named, came up formally,
and after some talk Vote was taken.
Messrs. Hanna and Sehimmele voted in
favor of taking the money. Messrs. j.
A. Geminder, John Knight and Otto
Schweer voted against it.
This is one instance among thous
and when a gift from Andrew Carnegie
has been refused by municipality.
1t is said that to carry out the con-
ditions named by Mr.. Carnegie would
increase the assessment about three
mills.

This Pleases the Jurors.

Judge Amidon of the United States
court for the North Dakota district, has
adopted new rule that appeals to the
jurors. When cases are given the jury
that require long deliberation the court
has issued an order that they may sep
arate at ten o'clock at night and go to
their hotels or homes, resuming work
at nine o'clock in the morning. The
court thinks this is better method
than requiring the jury to remain in un-
comfortable jury rooms all night in
bitter controversy, finally reaching freak
verdicts.

,, man, and had contributed toward the
support of his, parents. Pupisl'ments is
intended for reformation, and he had
shown such evidence of reformation
md repentance that he thought that
this had been accomplished. Walsh could
nave escaped when Upper did, but he
went back to the Jail and notified the
officials of the escape.
The court said that the offense is
one of the most serious under the law,
as it is not committed in hot blood or
haste, but with cool, careful determine
tion and generalization. u
County Attorney Wilson said that
Walsh had not obtained any money by
his act, but had sought to obtain SIS.
He had nothing to say on the case.
The court sentenced the defendant to
the state reformatory at st. Cloud.
William Kapischke was the last to
stand up. He committed forgery. He
said that his home is at Willow Creek,
and that he is eighteen years old and
had been raised to do farm work, but
since coming to Mankato last March
10th had done some carpenter work.
Richard S. Jones spoke upon Kop-
ischke's behalf and referred to his youth,
the fact that his life had been spent
upon farm, and his lack of education
The forgery was not the work OF one
who was realizing its extent. He sug-
egsted that a reformatory sentence
would be the means of making the de-
PENDANT respected member oTsociEy.
County Attorney Wilson said That he
did not oppose reformatory sentence,
but he wanted the court to know that
there had been. two other indictments
returned against the defendant, all based
on checks that were good deal alike
and passed upon different persons in, the
city ... ;tuG : m a,.rr,
Mr.. Jones, said that the crime seemed
to him to be practically one, with one
intent. arbarf M*- 10 ,~-. al, .ae
The court addressed the prisoner and
said that it. % looked as though
he had started in to become fOrger,
and if so it was fortunate for him and
for society that he mad been detected
thus early. If the maximum penalty for
each offense was to be imposed, it would
mean a sentence of more than twenty
years in the state prison. Kapischke's
family are honest and Industrious,
and the court had known them for
years and had never known one of them
to be convicted of crime, and he did not
see where the defendant had such an
example set him. He sentenced the dee
