MRS. PRATT is FREE
Charge Of Murder Against Her is Dis
missed in court-Persing is Also
Given His Liberty and He Immed-
lately Weds His Faithful Sweet
heart, Nina Fox.

Rockwell City. March 6.--When
Judge Powers convened court yester-
day. the case against Jennie Pratt and
William Persing. charged with the
murder OF Mrs. Pratts Husband, was
called and on motion of County Attor-
ney Hutchinson, both were dismissed,
and the defendants released from GUS
tody.
Mrs. Pratt had sensational trial,
covering fifteen days during the last
term of court but the jury failed to
agree. She was held under bonds to
appear at this term and has been living
with her parents at Rock Rapids Will
lam Persing, the alleged paramount, has
been i'm Jail since last June. but never
stood trial, and as no additional inn
portant evidence could be secured, 1t
would be impossible to convict them
on second trial.
Persing created sensation by pur-
chasing a marriage license within an
hour after his release to wed Nina
Fox, to whom he was to have been
married few days after his arrest.
The c<remony was performed by JUS
tice Thomas Tenant at the home of the
brides father at o'clock last evening,
in the presence of a few intimate
friends.

Billing and Cooling Game
Cheap in New Hampshire.
There lived in the town of Epping,
N. H., an old man who was noted for
his penuriousness. One winter the
school teacher boarded at his house,
and she had a beau who came once a
week to spend the evening with her.
This, of course, necessitated heating
and lighting the parlor.
Nothing vas said about this item
of expense at the end of the term,
when the teacher paid her board bill,
but the next day, happening to meet
the young man on the street, the old
man accosted him. and, after a few
preliminaries about the weather, re-
marked: "You know we've been to
some little extra expense this winter
running that fire in the parlor for
you and teacher. I didn't say any
thing to her, but l thought perhaps
you'd be willing to make it right"
"Why, yes" replied the young man,
Il am willing to pay anything reason
able, Of course How much do you
think you ought to have?"

S~ix-year-old Marie is a minister's
daughter, and Christmas, 1904, found
half a dozen dolls under the Christ
mas tree. There they stood during
Christmas week, when, realizing that
six or eve dolls in addition to 9TH
er toys was too much of a good thing,
mother, who had the lookakead tenn
permanent, resolved to kidnap one of
the family and put 1t by for the next
year.
To all appearances the scheme was
carried through successfully, as no
inquiries were made. So, on Christ
mas, 1905, the last years baby re-
appeared under the new tree. Next
morning Marie, accompanied by the
usual number of grown-ups, was TAX
en- to view the tree. Fixing her eyes
on the absentee and holding her dim
pied chin with a chubby hand, after
a period of deep thought she remark

EMPRESS OPPOSED TO CHANGE,
Chinese Soldiers Will Wear Queues
While Ruler Lives.

Chinese Soldiers Will Wear Queues
While Ruler Lives.
According to the new Chinese mill
tary laws, in all the army, from the
commander to the private, a new uni
form is introduced, but the question of
the queue presents great difficulties.
Many of the soldiers Of the Pei-yang
army have already shortened their
queues by two-thirds. However, the
Lian-ping-chu (the chief military ad.
ministration), although it has several
times discussed this question, has not
as yet permitted the soldiers to cut
OF the remainder of their queues.
Even Prince Ching does not venture
to address the Empress Dowager with
a report about this matter. Just a few
days ago he asked the head eunuch,
Lt-lien-ying, to choose a suitable oc.
casion, as If unintentionally, to find
out from the Empress Dowager her
opinion on the question. And so, at
a time when the Empress Dowager
was resting and was hearing the read.
Ing OF the newspaper, the head
eunuch made up his mind to tell her
That all the papers now state that dur
ing war time the queue would be a
great inconvenience to the soldiers,
and on this account would it not be
better to cut them off.
He had hardly finished his words
when the Empress Dowager, full of
wrath in her face, answered sharply,
wait till l die, then you can cut off
your queues!"
The head eunuch, of course, did not
reply to such an answer; and from
that time no n has dared to raise
the question of abolishing the queue.
