more than enough.
Rev. Ryan, pastor of the NJ. +. church.

other saloon.
A. d. Gray. an aged resident of that

PROVFRB CONTEST
JUDGES BEGIN WORK
Several Contestants Fail to File
Answers Before Time Limit
Expires

At 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon. the
time for receiving solutions in T e
G. | b e great prOverb contest expired
and the judges began the task of eX-
amining the sets of solutions received.
All day yesterday packages of prov
erb picture solutions poured into T e
CT o b office, from the postoffice, from
messenger boys and from contestants
who came to the office TO see that their
solutions were delivered properly and
in time.
The numbers of sets of answers re-
ceived was a truly complimentary in
dorsement of the contest. No attempt
has been made as yet to count them,
but there are piles and heaps, and the
task which lies before the judges In
their work gives promise of being
long and arduous one.
AS is usually the case, there were
few late corners who rushed breathlesS
into T h e G | o office at five and ten
minutes after o'clock TO enter their
sets of solutions in the contest. OF a
necessity they We're refused and the
conditions which they should have
known were explained to them. The
late Corners were greatly disappointed,
of course. but found cheer in the
thought that what was food for the
goose was food for the gander-there
We're others there clutching worthless
lunches of proVerb answers, to keep
them company.
The list of the so correct answers to
the so prOverb pictures was Withdrawn
yesterday afternoon from the safety
deposit vault, where it has lain since
the beginning of the contest, and the
work of sorting out the various sets of
solutions is now on in earnest. 1t is
a work that will take days. 1t is too
early now to even hazard a guess as
to when the labors of the judges will
be completed and the list of prize win
ners published to the world.
Information as TO the progress being
made in the judging work will be given
to contestants through the columns

PRISONERS ADMIT
THEY ARE GUILTY
Four Men Indicted by Grand
Jury Confess Their
Crimes

Criminal court was convened yes
terday morning with Judge Lewis
presiding. Four prisoners had Sc
cured permission from the county at
tCrney TO change their pleas of not
guilty to charges of grand larceny.
Two were young men, hardened al
ready, the county attorney said, in
crime. The other two were unusual
men for the criminal court. Both were
men of seemingly good intentions and
good prospects who had fallen through
Weaknesses.
The most pathetic of the cases was
that of white haired Ernest Bennett,
charged with grand larceny in the first
degree, stealing $700 from the st. Paul
Furniture company, while employed by
the company as bookkeeper.
Bennett told the story of his life to
the court. He had served a three year
sentence in the Anamosa penitentiary
in Iowa, he said, for forgery, but when
he had emerged from the prison he
had come away from his old associa-
TONS seeking to reform and to live an
honest life. He succeeded until last
fall when he became victim of temp
tations and embeZZled the funds of the
company. Judge Lewis took the case
under advisement and will pronounce
sentence this morning.
w. F. Carter, who, according to his
own confession. stole $296.7S from the
Northern Pacific railway company
while working on a dining car as con-
ductor, was given six months in the
county Jail after pleading guilty TO
the Indictment returned against him,
grand larceny in the second degree.
DR.. w. II. w. Boyle, pastor of the
House OF Hope Presbyterian church,
spoke to the judge in behalf of the
prisoner and said that he believed
Carter to be sincere in his promise to
reform. Carter is married and has
two little children. He told the court
that gambling had caused him to COM
nit the embezZlements which landed
him in Jail.
Edward Magin, 10 years old, indicted
OH a charge Of grand larceny in the
second degree, was sentenced to the re-
formatory at st. Cloud. Magin had
once before been in Jail. This time he
purloined a $1,000 violin and a $500
revolver from the room of Charles
Kelly.
Arthur Bardwell, % years old, one
of the young men indicted for robbiIg
White Bear cottages, turned states
evidence against his companion, Mike
Sauerwine, and pleaded guilty, re-
ceiving reformatory sentence.

NEWS OF THE CITY
Verify BECOMES A
POLITICAL LEADER
Former Secretary of Republican
State Committee Heads a
State League

Out of the session of the legislature
a new Republican political organiza ton
has been born. The Republican state
league is the pretentious name attach
ed to the organization, Differed in de-
tail by the employees of the last house
and senate, according to literature
which recently made it's appearance at
the state capitol. Membership in the
new organization is based on a willing
ness to subscribe in general to Repub-
lican doctrines and to pay 81 member
ship fee into the treasury.

mer secretary of the Republican state
central committee and late keeper Of
committee rooms in the state senate, is

ton, once intimately connected with the
Republican state organization, more
recently sergeant at arms of the house
and now slated for the superintendency
of the new state capitol, is one of the
vice presidents, and Don c. Johnson of
Blue Earth City, late sergeant at arms
of the retiring room of the senate, is
the other Republican who shares with
Mr.. Claggett the honor of being vice
president of the state league. Andrew
A. w. Rain, an active young politician
of Minneapolis, during the session just

sentatives, is secretary, and William G.
Bunde, formerly connected with the
United States marshaPS office at st.
Paul and of late senate stenographer,
is burdened with the duties of treasurer
of the state association.
Up to the present the membership in
the league is said by those responsible
for its organization to include some
very prominent Republicans. One man
recently invited to sign the constitution
and become a member was given
membership card No. 81. Whether or
not the memberships are numbered
from No. 1 or a higher number could
not be learned. Promoters of the league
insist that they Intend to make it
power in Minnesota politics.
. IL is regarded as suspicious that all
the officers of the league were original
Dunn men in the bitter fight that tore
the Republican party of Minnesota into
factions in the last state campaign. One
of the officers is credited with the
statement that one of the purposes of
the league is to discipline the so-called
Collins Republicans who refused to
abide by the verdict of the last state
convention that dominated R. c. Dunn
for governor, and who either sulked in
their tents or openly bolted the. NOM
