Former Mill City Man Leaves Poems.
With Unrequited Love the Theme.
La Crosse, Wis, May IA. = Carl
Miller, a recluse, said to have been a.
wealthy and cultured Minneapolitan
at one time, was found dead in his hut
three miles north of Brownsville. He
had been dead several days. Miller
was seventy-elght years old. He had
occupied the hut for many years, iso-
lating himself from all communica-
ton with the world. In the hut, Sc
curely locked in a trunk, were found
valuable books, literary compositions
and poems written by the recluse, all
indicative of cultured mind embit-
tered by unkind fate. Miller is said
to have had sister in Northern Min
nesota. An early romance is believed
to have been the cause of his seclu-
sion, as unreQuited love was the prin--
ciple theme of his writings

GREAT CROWDS CHEER FLORO-
DORA GIRL AS SHE STEPS
TO LIBERTY.
RECORDER GIVES HIS ADVICE
TO LET HER FUTURE BE GUIDED
BY REMEMBRANCE OF HER
ORDEAL,

New York, May IA. - After more
than eleven months in prison and
three mistrials on the charge Of muir
Gering Caesar Young, Nan Patterson
walked from the Tombs yesterday
free womc n. AS she left the great
building which has been her home
since a few days after Young was
found dying in cab in lower New
York, 1000 people greeted her with
torney Jerome would move for her
dismissal from custody had spread
throughout the vicinity of the court
house. But the accused girl had but
few seconds to see and hear the
demonstration before she was whisked
away in a cab with her attorney, Abra-
ham Levy.
Not the least interesting of the
days events end perhaps the great
dramatic climax Of the troubles of the
former Florodora girl was the
Reunion in Freedom
with her sister, Mrs. j. Morgan Smith,
and her brother-in-law, j. Morgan
Smith, both of whom were discharged
by Justice Cowing in the court OF
general sessions after being held on
charges of conspiracy ir connection
with the Patterson case.
District Attorney Jerome announced
his decision to free Nan Patterson in
a speech in the course of which he de-
clared that during two OF the trials CT
the girl all the evidence in the pos
session of the district attorneys Of
fee had been presented to the court
and that in both cases there had been
a disagreement. He said he did not
believe that at this time, Gin this
county another trial would result in
anything else than disagreement. .
He concluded with the motion that
Nan Patterson be discharged on her
own recogniZance.
Nan Is Discharged.
"Nan Patterson" said Recorder
| Golf slowly, "the district attorney has
seen fit to recommend your discharge.
| | feel bound to say fully coincide in
! the decision. There is nothing | can
say in this case that has not already
been said, but let me entreat you in
your future life to remember the ter
rible ordeal through which you have
| passed, and to permit every action OF
| your life to be guided by that remem,
| brance. Goodbye" and the recorder
bowed his head as he uttered the final
word and closed the case.
A moment later the girl was shak
ing hands with her counsel. Then she
walked steadily from the court to find
herself in the arms of her father just
outside the door.
"Thank Cod" Says Father.
THANK God, my daughter" was he1
fathers exclamation. The crowds II
the corridor cheered and the police LEI
them have their way.
AS she reached the street the dem
onstration was taken up by throns
outside. Kurrying through the crowt
she took her place in cab, smiling
and nodding to the friendly greetings
AS the cab started down town to tn
office of her counsel mounted police
surrounded it and kept back the in
creasing crowd which was threatening
one of the most remarkable demon
STATIONS ever seen at the Tombs.
Miss Patterson took late trail
last night for Washington, where he
mother lives.
