Chicago, Sept HAS a mother the
right to chain her boy to keep him
home, just as the government did with
its prisoners years ago, and as slave
traders did? This is the question be-
fore the juvenile court here.
This week, on complaint of the neigh
bors. Police Officer John Phalen was
sent to the Stetka home at 1877 North
Wood street. There he found the g.
year-old son Of Mrs. Katie Stetka In
the front yard, chain bound around
his ankle and fastened with a paddock,
officer Phalen removed the chain and
carried the boy away against the
mothers protest. The boy was taken
first to the police station and then to
the Juvenile home to be held pending
an investigation.

RUNNING WITHOUT HAT.

The net of circumstances which
has been woven show that Keith
man, after mis- alleged murder Of
DR.. Egge. ran away making de-
tours toward Front street and in
doing so he made call at the
Lamb wood yard where he put
back the king bolt which he had
used to attack his victim. He
then proceeded to Front street
and made stop in front Of the
Kiefer establishment where he
was seen by Officer Crossman,, but
the latter did not know then what
had happened.
After Crossman had left him,
Kethman evidently decided TO so
home and there is evidence that
he went via the small footbridge
opposite the Fargo waterworks.
for there he met Frank Pearl,
the barber, who says that Keith
man was running fast and was
without hat. Mr.. Pearl says
that this was shortly after IL
o'clock.

Editor Of London Times Creates
Sensation at Winnipeg
GERMANY OUT AFTER BLOOD
LORD NoRTHcLIFFE DECLARES
100000 GERMANS ARE WORKING
DAY AND NleHTs PREPARING
FOR sTRUeeLE-5ATTLE MAY
COME IN 1912.

Winnipeg, Sept. Lord North
cliffe, owner Of The London Times, in
an interview here predicted a war
between Germany and Britain He
said In one German city alone 100000
men are working night and day and
on Sundays preparing for war. His
conviction is that war can only be
averted by a most complete and
thorough preparation on the side Of
Britain.
Lord Northcliffe's statements are
simply appalling, The English editor
makes no effort to spare the feelings
OF the Canadians. He states that some
Canadians have optimistic views and
think such war crime. The Ger
mans do not think so.
Possess Great Army.
They have a magnificent army and
the second navy in the world and they
ask what these things are for. They
are thrifty people. They do not throw
money away. They make immense
sums OF money out of their great war.
Year 1912 Mentioned.
They will fight or threaten again
when they think that II will pay.
Many people say now that they will
fight Great Britain in the near fu-
ture and some have mentioned the
year 1872.

Elder Is Sitting Records in
Devils Lake Trouble
FINDS ONLY One BAD CASE
TWO FOREIGNERS WERE BLUFF.
ED IN a JUSTICE COURT BUT
THIS IS THE ONLY CASE THAT
GOVERNMENT INVESTIGATOR
HAS FOUND.

Devils Lake, N. D., Sept THE ap-
pearance of John Clifton Elder. special
agent for the immigration commission
in Devils Lake, and his activity in
searching legal records, has brought to
light the full details Of a certain action
taken against two laborers during the
first part of August, which makes it
seem very likely that there is some
truth in the charges of peonage that
Mr.. Elder made recently in The Forum.
The case in question is one that arous-
ed very little attention in this city
and all the records show is that it was
settled In the justice court upon the
payment of $42 costs by the defendants.
AS it has been brought out by Mr..
Elders researches, and by state
ments Of interested people. the case in
brief appears to be about this: Two
laborers, giving their names as George
and John Brandt, hired out to work
for two well known Ramsey county
farmers. The laborers were both new
comers and brothers. Each man took
the offered job, and each went to
work on a different farm. They made
somewhat similar contracts, or rather
verbal agreements, as the story comes
out now, In which they were to work
for $25 b month and board If they left
before harvest, and for $50 a month
and board If they stayed during the

Commander Peary claims that he was

The announcement OF Commander
Peary that he has discovered the
north pole rivets the attention Of the
entire civilized world. Whatever ques-
ton Of priority may exist between the
claims Of Commander Peary and DR.
Cook there can be no doubt that to
the United States belongs unquestion-
ably the credit and lasting renown of
discovering the north pole. The re-
markable coincidence Of the two
American announcements Of such coll
losal achievement, coming within Ave
days after centuries OF fruitless en-
deavor constitutes one of the most
remarkable condolences in history.
The question Of priority in reaching
the pole now absorbs the attention in
this country and Europe. That Pearv
will claim to be the first discoyerer
appears to be definitely assured from
the following:

GIRLS"

Here is the real summer play. Girls"
and giggies are delightfully."- mixed by
Clyde Fitch at his best and dished up IN
a clever manner by a capable cast Of ac-
tors. The author has thrust banter and
a laugh into every line, all of which was
cleVerly sensed by those who repeated
them at the Grand theatre last night
when the last of the Shubert attractions
was put on.
The play ripples lightly from the very
first. The WitucismS are spontaneous
and contain none of the conventional
platitudes which affliCt the lines Of 50
many authors in the course of the usuel
society drama. In fact, in every sItue-
ton the play runs clear of the usual Fhe
various half-dramatic, half-r1dlculOuS
predicaments of the plot are as frequent
and original as they are laughable, and
as the climax of dramatic triumphs there
is no villain, not vestige of one.
The players do all that could be asked
of them. The Girls, three of them, are
as pretty and delightful as the author
could have pictured them. Edgar Holt
as the young lawyer who skaters the
implacable sut1raglst illusions OF their
leader, pretty stubborn Pamela Gordon,
is Enthusiastically good in his part.
Elvia Bates as Violet LansdOWne delight
ed her audience with her sweet temlnInlty
and giTlish wit. Ethel Strickland as Kate
West, the last of the three man-hateTs
and the first to break her oath Of eter-
nal hatred, is equally good.
The story is about three girls who go to
New York to carve out their careers with
out the aid of man. Their independence
leads them into financial seas and serious
trouble with the ianitOr, who evOkes the
curse of @ incorporating landlord ana
holds it like a sword of Damascus over
their heads
In the middle Of the night, while the
girls are sleeping, young Holt breaks into
the room while fleeing from a husband
whose wrath he has unwttingly incurred.
His dashing manner and good looks win
him favor even from the man-haters, al
though they hide it behind intense indig-
nation. This marks the downfall Of their
league and the plot is concerned with the
method of their disillusioning.
The play continues tonight and tomor-
row night
