FALLS EIGHTY FEET
AND BREAKS BACK
Stage EmpIOye at the New
Minneapolis Auditorium
Takes Awful Tumble

Charles Sherman, a flyman or rigger
employed by the Twin City Scenic
company, which is equipping the stage
at the Minneapolis Auditorium, at
Eleventh street and Nicollet avenue,
was seriously if not fatally injured
late yesterday afternoon by falling
from the loft to the stage below, dis
tance of eighty feet.
one OF his legs was broken in two
places and the other was fractured
above the knee. In addition, it is the
belief of the surgeons at the city hos
pital, his backbone has been fractured,
and if he lives he will be crippled for
life.
No one seems to know how the acci-
dent occurred. Sherman, who was an
experienced man, having been employ
ed in this work for a dozen years, was
standing on the permanent fly loft, en-
gagged in the work of rigging some
tackles. He had with him in this work
another man, Frank Nelson, who was
some distance away.
Nelson had his back turned to Sher-
man and did not notice his absence
until he heard the cries of alarm from
the stage floor below. Sherman in his
fall bumped from scaffold to scaffold
and struck number of ropes in his
descent, and this is believed to have
saved him from instant death.
He was taken to the city hospital in
the patrol wagon of the central sta
tion, and last night, although he was
suffering excruciating pain, he was
said-to be conscious, but the prospects
OF his recovery were remote.
He was single man, about thirty
five years of age, and roomed at Fifth
street and Second avenue south. He
has mother and married sister in
Minneapolis and a brother is in ST.
Louis. He was an experienced theat-
rical man and had followed the busi-
ness for many years. AT the time of
the accident he was employed as fly
man at the Bijou theater, but during
the daytime labored for the company
which is installing the scenery at the
Auditorium.
Nelson says he knows nothing about
the accident other than he had his
back turned to the man and did not
notice his absence until he fell to the
stage below.

NO WRIT is GRANTED
Judge Simpson Has Not Acted
i'm Taxpayers Suit


Judge Simpson has not yet granted
the writ of certiorari which b. L. Cop
page, an employe of the Minneapolis
Dry Goods company and a represent
ative of the merchants of Minneapolis,
has applied for, through his attorney,
A. III. Hall, directing the state board
OF equalization to appear in court and
justify its increases of the assessment
OF personal property in Hennepin coun-
ty.
The papers were given to Judge
Simpson Saturday, but he has not COM
pleted his examination of them, and
not until today or tomorrow will it be
known whether he will direct the
state board to appear in court and
justify it's action.
The Minneapolis merchants protest
against what they call the arbitrary
action of the board and propose to in
stitute proceedings to prevent the COL
lection of taxes for the alleged excess
i've amounts. In order to protect them
selves, they have sought to secure the
passage of a bill by the legislature
which will permit the payment of per-
sonal property taxes under protest and
allow the taxpayer an opportunity to
recover should the assessment be held
invalid or irregular

here today in the Polk county criminal
court on the charge of numbering Mabel
Scofield, handsome young girl five years
ago and throwing her remains into the

which the state claims to have woven
about Thomas is strong, but the defend

ployed in a studio at 800 Nicollet avenue,

TIES UP THE FUNDS
OF FORMER EMPLOYER
Harry Van Auken Seeks Revenge for His
Incarceration In jail

Harry Van Auken, the young man who
was brought from Mobile by Deputy
Sheriff 10th because of alleged irregulari-
ties in connection with the business of the
j. E. c. Kelly Coal company, of which he
was Minneapolis agent, and who was
discharged from jail after the grand jury
had considered his case. has instituted
proceedings against the Kelly company.
which Is Wisconsin concern, for the re-
covery of over s2.100 which he claims is
due him as commissions on Minneapolis
business.
Yesterday he garnisheed the Holmes &
MacCaughey Coal company, which, he
says. has funds amounting to over 81. 500
belonging to the Kelly company in its
possession. He has tied up the funds OF
the Kelly company and seeks to secure
some satisfaction for his recent inconve-
nience.
When he was arrested IL was asserted
he had secured money from numerous
Minneapolis men under false pretenses.
but 1t was shown he had only borrowed
the money, and as there was nothing
criminal in an act of this sort the men
who betrayed the expense of his return
from Mobile were glad TO let the matter
drop.
Van Auken now says he proposes to
make an interesting fight. and as he has
tied up large sum of money he is conf
dent there will be some interesting de-
velopments at the trial
