DEAF MUTES ABLE
TO TALK RIGHT UP
BEGGARs' CERTIFICATES OF DIS
ABILITY WE'RE BALD FAKES.
The Men Carried an Outfit Which Was
Rarely Well Suited for Burglary--So
the Police Had Them Slowed Away
at the works on Charge Of
Vagrancy.

After tramping about the city for
several days, and representing to all
whom they met that they were deaf
and dumb, William Cole and John Nc
earthly pleaded not guilty in strong
tones to a charge of vagrancy in police
court today.
Cole is an ex-convict and, with his
pal, has been making a good income
for the past few days. Stationing
themselves at different points along
Washington avenue S the men showed
their letters to prosperous-lookin pc
destrians: The letters were written on
the stationery Of one of the large
hotels. The notes stated that the men
were deaf and dumb and could not find
employment. With a little money they
could get to Michigan, where there is
plenty of work.
The Migrants were also we'll versed
in the sign language, and efforts of the
officers to get them to talk were fruit
less. Detective Edward Helm had been
retained as deaf-and-dumb interpreter
and there was some surprise when they
began to fight their cases in good, audi
be English.
When arrested the men had on thei1
persons several burglarious tools, in
Guiding glasscutter, Fearing that
they were the early birds on the groune
for the fall work, Judge G. L. Smith
sentenced them to the workhouse fol
twenty days.

FUNLOYING FRIENDS
ONLY AUTO THIEVES

81 don't think that there is any
such thing as an automobile theft"
said Asa Paine, vice president Of the
Minneapolis Automobile club, today.
!" Not every person who is SO inclined
can start and run machine, and the
people who know how do not, as rule,
belong to the criminal classes.
sHThe recent automobile disappear
ances seem to me nothing but prac-
tical jokes carried pretty far. The peo-
pie who run off with the machines are
usually friends Of the owner or else
some garage employees, who recognize
the machine and feel confident that its
owner will not make them any trouble
if they are caught: - .a.
A. G. Bennett Of the Bennett garage
is inclined to lay the entire blame on
the friends of the owners. "This talk
Of auto thieves is foolishness, - he
said. "'The only people who will in
terfere with mans machine are his
j friends. About once week find my
car half block from where left it
or get out just in time to see a bunch
Of, friends 60 sailing around the, cor

Even our competitors acknowledge
that when we advertise a piano sale
it means something. Because it does
mean something is the reason why
our sale is an unqualified success. 1t
means that better pianos are being
offered for less money and on easier
terms than can possibly be obtained
elsewhere.
The. story of the sale is this! A
dealer had some pianos and we had
some cash.
The dealer wanted the cash badly.
He was willing that we should fix
the price-that is the story in nut

There is danger of forest fires in the
woods of northern Minnesota, for the

until recently, but it has also brought
up a rank growth of vegetation, and
the past two or three weeks this has
dried out, giving material for some bad
