Israel Meyer swore out a warrant
for the arrest of his aunt, Mrs Anitua
Meyer, on the charge of assault and
battery. The case was tried in JUS

Meyer was dismissed. The boy
Enlarged that she hit him with chunk

she was justified in doing so. The
boy attempted to call her name in
the Jewish language and by mistake
employed a vile term. After giving
both parties a sermon Justice Nissen
dismissed the case.

BLAZE IN The
old SPEAR HOME
Necessary to Break Into the
House in Order to Reach
the Flames.
POLICE RESTRAIN OWNER
After Having Hair Singed, She Tries
% Return to Burning Building
Origin Unknown.

Fire of unknown origin was discov-
tered at s o'clock this morning in the
house on Third avenue and Eighteenth
Estreet which is occupied by Miss Cath
ferine Spear. The fire broke out IN
the front room which is used as bed
room and before it was extinguished
most OF Miss Spears clothing and
some of the furniture was destroyed.
Miss Spear could not say this morn
ling Just how the fire started, although
she was there at the time. She stated
that she had brought some kindling
\ in to start a fire in a small stove
which she is using, because of the un-
lsettled state of her home. After she
had kindled the fire, she left the room
land on her return found that the fire
had caught some of her wearing ap-
lparel. In her excitement she forgot
about the fire department. She opened
the front door and called for help. a
lstenographer in one of the offices in
the Safety building turned in an alarm.
aHA FIremen Break In.
Miss Spear then locked her front
door ard the firemen had to break
their way in to gain entrance. Miss
Spear could not estimate her loss.
1t will be remembered that about
two months ago an attempt was made
to move the house into the Sixth ward,
but because of the objections of the
residents in that ward the council re-
fused to let the building be moved.
Since that time the house has been
I'm In the air-on stilts-while the
owner has been hunting for suitable
place to locate 1t. The house is
probably the Oldest one in this vicin-
ity. 1t was built several decades ago,
and the oldest inhabitant says at was
built when 1 came here
Believes She is Prosecuted.
When Miss Spears parents obtained
possession of it they rebuilt it. Miss
Spear does not remember when this
I occurred. She said: "All that 1 can
remember is, that 1 have lived here
ali of my life and may have been born
here, but 1 can not remember when
it was. II has been the only home
ever knew, and now every one is try
ing to put me out of it."
The people who saw the interior of
the place were prepared to see almost
anything in the line of antiques, but
they were all surprised when they did
see the contents. The whole place :5
crowded with dead plants. bundles of
paper. old clothes, furniture, etc. 1t
is a veritable curio shop.
Restrained by Omcers.
While the fremen were working
Miss Spear was restrained with diff
Guilty from going into the house. Her
hair had already been badly singed
and the police held her so that she
would receive no further injury. She
stated that her money was under her
pillow, and one of the fireman got it
for. her.
Assistant Fire Chief Frey said that
the structure should be condemned
and torn down.

License Fee Reduced.
Alderman Cochran secured the
passage of an ordinance reducing the
license fees of owners of peanut and
popcorn stands from $50 a year to
$25 a year. This action followed the
reduction made in the amount OF ped
dlers' licenses which was made some
time ago. On motion of Alderman Ell
linwood, himself and Aldermen Carse
and Utke, were appointed a commit
tee to confer with the Peoples Power
company with a view to securing a
reduction in the minimum rate charg-
ed for the use of electricity through

tee will attempt to have this cut in

STATE DEPARTMENT REFUSES
TO ENTER INTO THE COOK.
PEARY CONTROVERSY.
The National Geographical Society
VIII Name Committee to Go to
Copenhagen to Examine Or.
Cooks Records.

Washington.-Refu to be drawn
troversy, the state department on
Thursday declined a request that 1t
cable American Minister Egan at
Copenhagen to request Of the univer-
sity of Copenhagen permission to ex.
anime the records of DR.. Frederick A.
Cook when they were submitted to
that institution.
The request was made by a delega-
ton from the National Geographic so
ciety, which will appoint committee
to visit the foremost Danish scientific
institution to which DR.. Cook Is to sub
NIT his records. The desire to have
the request go through the official
channels was made at conference
held in this city between prominent
members of the society.
The request was made on the
ground that the examination would be
ly valuable In the adjustment OF the
polar problem.
The department took the request
under advisement and later decided II
would not accede to It, 1t was felt
such action would constitute official
recognition of Commander Peary
against DR.. Cook, that any unusual &C
ton on its part might be interpreted
as an Endorsement of the claim Of one
or the other of the two explorers as
to priority Of discovery. The depart
ment has notified Secretary Grosven
or of its attitude.
