MADE IT'S IMPRESS
Called to Front Droor, Shot Down and
His Pockets Rifed With Bloody
Hands.

Brunson, Nov. 16.-Mr. L. B. Pad
get, a prosperous tenant farmer living
alone about two miles from this town,

morning by near neighbor. The load
from a shotgun was fired into the
head of the murdered man. The OBJ
iect of the murder was evidently rob-
berry, as Padget was known to have
several hundred dollars in cash. The
clothes of the dead man showed they
had been searched by bloody hands
and the money taken. The neighbor-
hood is aroused and diligent search is
being made. Mr.. Padget was Con-
federate veteran and served in Vir-
ginia in Hampton's cavalry.-State,

COURT MAKES AN
EXTREME RULING
MILWAUKEE JUDGE WILL GO
SLOW ON INJUNCTIoNs.
j. " Quarles Decides to Issue No More
Restraining Orders on an Ex-Parte
Hearing Is in Line with
Recommendation in the Presidents
Last Message to Congress.
Special to The Journal.

Milwaukee, JAM 3.-There will be no more
government by Injunction in the United States
court for the eastern district of Wisconsin, at
least until the opposite side in the case has had
an opportunity for hearing, according to
official pronunciamento of Judge ]. V. Quarles
of that court.
Judge Quarles said that hereafter he would
issue no more injunctions upon an ex-parte heat
ing. The defendant shall be warned of the ap-
plication and have an opportunity to present
Lis side Of the case before restraining order
is issued by the branch of the United States
court over which he presides.
This decision was arrived at by Judge Quarles
as result Of recent experience. Acting on
a statement of facts as presented by petit
TONER, the court granted an injunction and re-
strainfng order prayed for. After the re.
straining order had been issued, the defendant
appeared before the court and presented Its
side Of the case, and this resulted in a modif1.
cation Of the injunction preserving the present
status of the until the issues shall have
been determined in court.
Judge Quarles himself characteriZes his ac.
ton as being extreme departure from the
accepted practice in United States courts, but
said that he had long pondered the step before
arriving at decision.
This is regarded locally as a fitting decision Of
the court from which was issued that epoch max
Ing injunctional sorder issued by Judge j. q.
jenkins during the A. R. q. troubles in 1904
the decision which, more than any other one
tnlng' gave rise to the phrase, Government
by Injunction =
The decision follows in every particular the
recommendation made by the president In his
last message to congress, especially as regards
the giving of notice to the adverse party before
the granting Of the writ. ~

SEARCHING. FOR RELATIVES =
Grand Forks Wants to Find Mother of
.~ Thomas Curtis. -

GRAND FORKS, N. D.-The authorities have
50 far been unable to find the relatives Of
Thomas Curtis, who was fatally injured in
the Northern Pacific coal docks at East Grand
Forks. Curtis came to this city, in Septem-
Der, 1901, and some time ago became q mem
Der Of the Knights of the Maccabees. In max
ing his application for membership, he named
Mrs. Rebecca Curtis, his mother, as beneficiary.
Curtis came here from Lexington, ILL.,, and
from that city a telegram came announcing
that the family had lived there, but that Mrs.
Patrick Curtis lived at Nevada, Iowa.
The chtef-of police Of that city, upon re-
ceipt of telegram announcing the death of
Thomas Curtis, evidently misconstrued it, as
he replied that Thomas Curtis was in good
health and lived at Beloit, Wis. No reply has
been received from the telegram addressed to
Mrs. Curtis. Officers of the Maccabees, as we'll
as the Northern Pacific Beneficiary association,
are anxious to find relatives Of the dead man.
Unless they heard from soon, the bene-
fciary association will bury the body here.

probably nc one knew. But since the
French and driven away Louis Philippe
and proclaimed the republic, something,
of course, must happen here, too. Some
of the students had brought their "a

once to make an attack or, to defend
ourselves. We were dominated by a
vague feeling that great outbreak Of
elemental forces had begun. as if an
earthquake was impending of which
we had felt the first shock, and we in
stinctively. crowded together. Thus we
wandered about in numerous bands t.

however would not suffer us long to
stay; then to other pleasure resorts,
where we fell into conversation with
all manner Of strangers, to find in them
the same confused, astonished and ex-

market square to see what might be
going on there; then again somewhere
else. and so on without aim and end
until finally late in the night fatigue
compelled us to find the way home.
