MAY Be,
MOTIVE FOR ARSON.
THEORY ADVANCED AT HEARING
ON UNIVERSITY FIRE.
Blaze in Anatomical Building May
Have Been Started by Some One An
gered Because Unable to Recover
Body Of Friend, Is DR.. Erdman's
Suggestion as to Cause.

Destruction Of the anatomical build
ing at the state university by fire July
25, 1905, may have been the revenge Of
some one who was refused the body Of
a friend which he wished to rescue from
the dissecting table.
So testified DR.. Charles A. Erdman Of
the university faculty at the hearing
on the cause Of the fire today conducted
by the state fire marshal, Edward Pc
terson.
In his testimony DR.. Erdman said In
part:
l absolutely suspect no one single
person, but there is this condition at
tanning about this institution. We re-
ceive bodies which sometimes are found
here by friends. The friends find they
have no claim on the bodies, because
relatives alone can claim a body, and
they have expressed to me time and
would do to the institution to get even
and all that. They find that there is
no property right in corpse, and they
find that they can It sue the state; so
the thing is left in that way. We re-
tain the body and bury it when we
are thru with it. I am satisfied there
is considerable antipathy in certain
quarters, SO that could easily under
stand that any one would set the fire in
revenge IT,, r.
Thomas W. Hickey, plumber, testi-
fed that but ten minutes before the fire
started he was working in the building
alone. He said, however, that he had
used no light himself, and had not seen
or smelled any indications Of a fire.
DR.. Erdman testified that there were
a number of Jars of alcohol in the build
ing, and that there is "remote posi-
bility' That gas might have accumu
| lated in one of them and caused an ex
plosion and fire following.

DAY BALKED BY
ACTION OF COURT
VICTORY FOR EXCEL
SIOR'S PROHIBITION MOVE.
Court Holds that Conviction of Day
Was Sufficient Proof to Warrant His
Prosecution and that There Was No
Malice Shown by His Prosecutors
Demurrer Is Sustained.

Excelsior anti-saloon workers have
won another victory. Judge D. F.
Simpson today sustained a demurrer to
the complaint in the malicious prose-
cution case brought by Samuel Day
against e. Perkins. and twelve other
workers of the good citizenship move
ment: The plaintiff is given ten days
in which to amend his complaint. If
he, does not do this he will have to
bring an entirely new action or let the
matter drop.
Day was arrested for running a
"blind pig" at Excelsior. He was CON
victed and sentenced by the town JUS
tice. He was later released by Judge
Andrew Holt Of the district court on
the ground that the justice had ex-
ceeded his authority. Day then began
the present suit for $4,000 damages,
charging the Excelsior reformers with
malicious prosecution and conspiracy.
The grounds of the demurrer sus-
tanned by Judge Simpson were that the
complaint did not state a cause of &C.
tion, since the conviction of Day was
sufficient proof of his guilt to warrant
the prosecution, and that there was no
malice shown by any of the defendants.

Miss Alice Stone Blackwell of Bos-
ton, pays tribute to Mrs. Sarah Schaef-
fer in the last number of the Woman $
Journal, of which she is one Of the edi-
tors. Miss Blackwell was in Mime
apolis earlier in the summer and was
an interested visitor to the city Jail.
"Mrs. Sarah Schaeffer, the police
matron Of Minneapolis, is said to be
the only police matron in the country
who has full and entire charge Of the
women's department. in the city JAIL"
writes Miss Blackwell. "About d
thousand women and girls pass thru
her hands every year. She also has
charge Of all the boys under II years
old. On being asked if she did not
sometimes find it hard to handle the
big boys, Mrs. Scha effer answered, with
smile, that they were not so difficult
to deal with as the drunken women,
but that she could always manage both
by kindness and firmness combined.
She never has. to call in help. Mrs.
Schaeffer is Missourian by birth, and
is the widow of an army officer. When
appointed police matron, she was in
poor health, fragile and nervous, and
her best friends feared that she would

JUST the right woman for the place.
Under the congenial and responsible
work her health improved, and she is
now strong and we'll. No one can meet
her without being impressed by the
fact that she is a superior woman. She
has had wide experience Of life, and
cannot be hoodwinked by any Of the
arts of the culprits with whom she has
to deal. The officers are generally
guided by her advice as to the dispos
al Of them, and she rarely makes 8
mistake. She receives many touching
letters of gratitude from women ant
girls who are now doing well. Mime
