SECOND CASE DISMISSED
AGAINST FRANK ID. PARKS

This morning Frank ID. Parks, of
the Scibcr Cattle company, was ar
rnigned for preliminary hearing be-
fore Justice Sweeney on the second
charge preferred against him by Chns
Lines and others, this time accusing
him of defacing brands and re brand
ing. About the same evidence as in
troduced on the first of cattle steal
ing, was given this morning.. Nntur-
ally there was nothing to the case
with this evidence. The cattle had
already been declared the property
of the Seiber Cattle company, and to
charge Parks with dcfacing n brand
ON his own cattle was n mere farce.
Justice Sweeney took the matter
under adviscmcnt until two o'clock
when he ordered n decision dismiss
ing the case. The court viewed one
of the cows in dispute, this morn
ing. There was no evidence of n de-
fncement of the brand even.
A witness has been found who was
with Henry Knowles when he was
supposed to have given the cattle
Lines now has, to Brown. He swcars
that Knowles gave no cattle TO Mr..
Brown.
The second case ended as all eN-
pected. There was nothing to either
case. The county must stand the
heavy costs.

Woodmen afterward filed rcmon-
STRANGE and asked that the city coun-
ell cancel the license on the ground
that it was Illegal; that the council
had fun power to Investigate and if
1t was found that the license was il
legally granted to cancel same.
1t is charged that Rachel A. Mil

part of which the scloou is to stand.
signed the petition FOR a rental con-
sideration and therefore the sigma
ture is Illegal and void.
The court Is Informed that in the
demonstration to the council II was
alleged that the said license had been
obtained by fraud, misrepresentation
and imposture, that the adjoining
property holder. the Woodmen In
vestment company had not signed
the petition; that the petition was
signed by agents instead Of by own
ers of property as required by the
ordinance and that for other rea-
sons the council was asked to cancel
the license. However Il is set forth
that the city council has refused to
cancel the license and refused and
ST refuses to take any action what
ever in the matter.
As a result OF the councils ac-
tiou the Wuodmen believe they have
no remedy or appeal or action at law
to review the action of council un-
less by writ of certiorari issued out
of the county court.
The Investment company, declares
that the council had no right what
ever to grant the license as ma
jority of the property holders own
ing more than half the lots on the
south side of block III. had not Sign
ed the DntitfDu
For these and many other reasons
set forth in detail the Woodmen In
vestment company has asked Judge
sullivan TO grant the writ. forcing
the council to furnish the court with
all records and Information in its
hands so that the court can fully de-

WOOSTER. O., March 2S.-After
an agreement to wed Miss Mabel
Wilson, of this vicinity, Bruce Wal
lace, a clerk in a Cleveland hard
ware store, is putting up a unique
plea as his defense in a suit for
$4,000 for breach of promise to
marry, brought by his former
sweetheart.
Wallace admits that he and Miss
Wilson agreed to wed during the
year 1900. but in his answer says
no time or date was fixed, and that
after a time it was decided that
the wedding should not take place
until he had steady employment.
Wallace then says that in 1905 he
learned for the first time that he
and Miss Wilson We're of closer re-
lation than second cousins, and
could not wed under the law.
Miss Wilson and Wallace lived
on adjoining farms near Wooster
They were engaged, the girl says
and Wallace left for Cleveland to
make home. There he met a
city girl and forgot his sweetheart
back on the farm.

THE MAN THAT
TOLD HENEY

SAN FRANCISCO, March 2S.-
Supervisor James l.. Gallagher, the
"go-between" who passed the bride
money from the hands OF Abraham
Ruef on to the members of the
board of supervisors, caved in at
the moment the political boss
thought him strong, and so it was
that Francis j. Heney secured the
connecting link in this city's fa-
nous bribery cases.
Gallagher's confession showed
where he had handled thousands
of corporation money which had
been paid to sRuef and Mayor
Schmitz for the purpose of securing
valuable concessions.
Gallagher received this money
done up in neat packages, with the
names of the corrupted supervisors
on the outside. These he passed
when occasion presented it in the
lobby leading to the meeting room
of the board of supervisors.
Gallagher was promised immun-
ity. His confession was COM
plete.
He implicated IA members of the
board of supervisors and declared
under oath that they all received
brides.

BAT NELSON As.
A BANKER

Liquor has changed near angels
into devils. The smile OF a woman
has made savages of gentlemen
About the axis of subtle drug DR..
Jekyls have revolyed into the plane
of Mr.. Hyde. But let it be set
down to the credit of the brunette
champion, Joe Cans for the newest
thing in the way of evolution that
has yet been discovered.
z Wizard Joe delivered the magic
wallop that transformed:
Bat Nelson, pug, slugger, terrible
Dane, prize fighter,
Into:
The Honorable Mr.. Oscar Ma
thew Battling Nelson. banker. fl
nancier political leader and phil
anthropist.
Alas, it is too true. The wicked
Bat of the olden days has evoluted
completely. He has debilitated in
to common things. The news was
gently broken a few days ago,
when it was announced from Hege-
wisch, ILL.,, that the First State
Bank of Hegewisch had been cap
italized and was prepared to make
its modest entry into the arena OF
finance, we'll backed by strong
financial directorate to include the
Hon. o. M. Battling Nelson, fore
most citizen of our modest but
thriving little city.
"Mr. Nelson, who will be one OF
the prime factors in the affairs OF
the institution, is widely known in
Hegewisch for his active interes.
In purer politics, his philanthropy
and his adherence to high stan
dard of citizenship
Some time the conscience of Mr.
Joe Cans will demand an account
Ing of him for this.
