Coroner'S Jury Returns aVerdict
IN Death Of Mary StoIIeOWerk
But Fixes No Cause
DEATH POSSIBLY ACCIDENTAL
Brother of the Dead Woman Insists
That the Poison Taken by Mistake
Caused Her to Faint and that She
Fell Fracturing Her Skull

Lle mystery surrounding the death
Of Mary Stotlenwerk has not been
solved, for late Thursday night the
Cofoner's jury closed up the case by
returning an open verdict to the eff
feat that the woman met her death
from a fracture Of the skull. The
jury did not attempt to go into the
caase. Of the fracture of the skull, for
the evidence at the inquest did not
throw a single ray of light on the
vranner in which the woman received
rne great bruise on the head which
sbe Jury found caused her death.
The jury eliminated entirely the
possibility of suicide by carbolic acid,
as the evidence of the physicians
showed conclusively that if the wo-
man did take the acid with suicidal
intent she did not get enough of it
into her system to cause her death or
even bring on any serious illness.
The jury purposely left the verdict
open that the District Attorney might
make any investig ations that he may
see at, but tits hardly probab BILE that
the mystery surrounding the blow on
the woman's head will ever be solved.
One of the theories advanced by the
brother of Miss Sto1lenwerk was
given very serious consideration by
the jury, and that was the theory that
the woman met death as a result of
an accident. He stated while giving
mis- testimony that the carbolic acid
had been placed in a cupboard direct.
1y next to a bottle containing the
medicine which Miss Sto1lenwerk had
been taking regularly, and that it was
his opinion that his sister went to the
cupboard and in her haste got hold of
The wrong bottle and took a small
amount of the deadly acid After
she took the acid it is thought posi-
BILE that she started to run to the
front door to call for help, and that it
brought on dizziness which forced
hex to fall, and ithat in her fall her
head struck against the stove in the
room and that this blow caused the
fra cture of the skull which resulted
in her death.

POPULAR TEA COMPANY
THE GRAND UNION
Noted for High Grade Qaulity of
Goods at Reasonable
Prices.

This progressive company is located
at 119 East Superior street. Their
head quarters are in New York, and
they are the largest retail dealers Of
teas and coffees in the United States.
The company has 1913 branch stores
located in cities north, south, east and
west. They import their teas, coffees
and spices direct from the producers,
and aim at selling them at the lowest
possible margin of profit
Until recently the company was To-.
Gated at No. 18 West Superior street;
but, our rent racking, union busting
real estate sharks who >evidently think
the earth with the "booms'' and
Snaps" thereof is theirs, put rents at
such exorbitant figures that the Grand
Union Tea refused to submit to the
extortion and moved to their present
quarters at 119 East Superior street.
The company either had to do that or
raise prices. The company preferred
to stand by their customers rather
than by an avaricious landlord.
Alvin Bousfield is manager Of the
company. He has a host Of warm
friends: in Duluth, who admire his
manlfness in refusing to allow himself
and his customers to be imposed up
On by greedy and unreasonable land
lords; so thus far he finds business
even better at the present stand than
1t was at the former. People might
hesitate to walk an additional block
or two for the sake Of saving a few
cents on pound Of tea or coffee, but
when they know the quality Of the

CONGRESSMAN Focht Makes Colos-

tries in America.
Introduces Bill in the House
Which Will Create Factories
All Over the Land.

A Washington dispatch to the Phila-
delphia Record, under date of April
23rd, says:
With a view of forcing foreigners
! who obtain American patents and sell
their product here, also to build fac.
tories for the manufa cture of at least
half Of their American output, Repre-
sentative B. K. Focht, of the Seven
teenth Pennsylvania. district; today in
troduced bill to amend the patent
laws He believes this act will result
in the next few years in considerable
additions to the volume of American
! manufactures and necessarily give enl-
ployment to thousands of workmen.
, The bill is modelled after similar laws
in England, Germany and Russia.
Millions of dollars worth of articles
protected by American patents are ex-
ported annually from European coun-
tries and sold in the United States.
Some years ago when the Westing-
| house company opened up business IN
Russia, it was compelled, in obedience
to the Russian law, to erect extensive
factories there at cost of several
million dollars. AS a result Of the new
English law, large number of Amer
lean concerns have been obliged TO
! build factories there. In Europe for
eign manufacturers are obliged to
manufacture all the patented articles
sold there within the respective coun-
tries.
T Under the British Patent Act, which
| went into effect January l.: 1908, no
foreign invention can be patented and
no patent already issued holds good
unless the; patented article or process
is made or carried on in the United
Kingdom. A number OF German firms
have purchased sites and are preparing
! to establish branches of their INDUS
tries in Great Britain. The result will
be to enormously increase the capital
invested and to provide employment
for many thousands of British work.

This is the basis of Judgment and
the measure of reward which shall
prevail at the last great day, accord
ing to Christ's own statement. It is
fair and a natural standard. It
should appeal to the sense of justice
in every man. There may be some
difference of opinion among men as
to the value of particular mans
work, but the Great Judge will make
no mistake. He knows both the heart
and the work, the motive and the re-
suit. He understands US all.
In parable and in direct teaching
He has already given us a glimpse
Of the principles which shall control
at the Judgment Day.
In the story of the pound of equal
value, given to each of several men,
the lesson is that It will be a pro-
portionate reward-the man increas-
ing five times the reward given to him
who simply doubled the value of his.
The parable of the talents teaches
that it will be judgment based upon
natural ability-the. five talent man
being expected to produce five times
the result obtained by the one talent
man, but sreceiving only the same re-
ward given the man with the one
talent endowment. That is, of the man
who naturally has exceptional ability,
exceptional results will be expected.
This is only fair to the ordinary man
who is doing the best he knows how.
It will be a judgment based not
upon the knowledge Of complex theo-
logical questions, but upon the simple
matters which everyone can under
stand Aside from the fundamental
relationship which every man should
sustain toward Christ, himself seek
ing to conform his life more and more
to the life Of his Master-the basis Of
reward will be according to the man.

of the practical ministries Of every

It will be; noted, throughout, there

Baseball.

Owing to the unfavorable weather Of
last Sunday the ball game Duluth
Heights versus Hazlewood. had to be
cancelled. Considerable interest was
shown in regard to this game for the
reason that one of Hazlewood's repre-
sentatives said something to the effect
that Hazlewood was looking for an
easy team at first, just for practice.
Evidently they have forgotten the
drubbing our boys inflicted on their
backs last season: 1t is hoped by the
Duluth Heights fans that another op-
portunity can be arranged by the
West Enders.
The RUNNERS baseball team have
the following dates with our boys:
The first Sunday in May at Duluth
Heights;e the third Sunday down town
and the first Sunday i'm June on the
Heights. It is hoped that the new
grounds will be in shape soon so that
the boys will be able to put up a
better game.

SETTLE CLEVELAND STRIKE.

Cleveland, O., May 22.-What was
hoped to be the final negotiations to-
ward ending the street car strike here
began yesterday between members OF
the union and President Dupont and
others interested. That the way Is
comparatively clear to a settlement
is now admitted on both sides. The
consent of the Forest City company's
employees yesterday to place the ques
ton of their right of seniority in tn:
hands OF arbitrators removed what
was by far the greatest stumbling
block to a settlement. l..
1t is understood that at last par
tial settlement has been reached, and
only minor details are now under
consideration. The car men have
named Prof. Elroy M. Avery, the well
known writer and historian, as their
arbitrator while the traction COM
pany has selected Arthur A. Stearns,
a prominent local attorney. It has
been agreed that each shall name
five men, for which the man to name
the third arbitrator shall be selected.
His third arbitrator, however, Is net
to serve until he Is. asked to do 10,
but will be imme diately named.
