NICHOLSON WAS
PAINTED PLAIN
Artist Paints Norway's Liber-
ator Without Medals and
Orders Unsuccessfully

Christiania, Jan. 12.-Because
'Norway's Liberator." ex-Premier
Nicholson refused to bedizzen himself
with royal orders and decorations
when he had his portrait painted, the
municipality of Bergen, that ordered
the oil painting, refuses to accept 1t,
and the artist, Hurik Lund, Is forced
to sue for his money
The life-size painting which was
to grace the city museum in Bergen
10 acknowledged as work of art
and an excellent likeness. Nicholson
himself congratulated Lund on the ex-
cellent work he did, yet the museum
administration refused to accord the
picture the intended place of honor.
When pressed for an explanation
the city council finally confessed that
1t refused to accept the painting be-
cause the plain dress of the ex-min-
lister of state and the absence of or
ders from the manly bosom of "the
liberator," who made Norway an in
dependent state, proved too much of
q disappointment. They had expect
ed to see Michelsen represented in
the uniform of prime minister, with
gold lace and diamond buttons galore,
and wearing the many colored ribbons
and snowy emblems of the numerous
royal orders and decorations he owns
Instead, Nicholson elected to be
portrayed in simple frock coat and a
colored tie. making no more show
than a corner grocer and the like. Z"

Stole March on Governor d.
ing the Night and Took :
Charge
POOLE UNDER military ARREST
hNO PEAKE CIv|llY EMJ0IhED
Judge Winchester Restrained Col.
Peake From Exercising Any Rights
or Duties of Office and Colonel Will
Obey the Courts Order.
(By H. d. Paulson.)

Bismarck, N. D., Jan. 12-Sensation-
al features were added to the adjutant
general scrap today when Governor
Burke issued orders placing General
Poole under military arrest. Under
such orders Poole must remain at or
near his quarters located in the North
west hotel, disobedience of the orders
putting it up to the governor as COM
mander-in-chief Of the militia, to have
Poole placed under actual arrest.
With the arrest of Poole, conflict
arises between the military and civil
authorities, the developments of which
promise to be decidedly interesting.
Further complications in the muddle
arose last night with the serving of
injunctional papers upon Acting Ad-
iutant General Peake which restrain
him from taking any action with ref
erence to the work in the militia Of
flee. The order was secured by Cen
eral Poole from Judge Winchester and
is returnable on next Saturday morn
ing, at which time Col. Peake or any
Of his agents must show cause, II any
they can, why any action that would
tend to prevent Gen. Poole from per-
forming the duties of the Office of ad-
dutant general should be taken. When
Governor Burke arrived at the CAPT.
tol this morning he found Poole in
possession of the militia Offices again,
he having taken possession some time
during the night though the offices
were on Monday turned over to Col.
Peake by a detachment from COM
pany A of Bismarck It is probable
that Burke will again order the mill
tia out to take possession of the Of
fees in the capitol building Col.
Peake will obey the order of the dis
trict court for fear of being placed
under civil arrest should he disobey
the Injunction.
This afternoon Capt. Murphy of
company A of Bismarck, acting on or
ders issued by Governor Burke as
commander-in-chief of the national
guard. with detail of eight men, took
possession of the adjutant generals
office with orders to remain constant
ly in possession until further orders
from the governor.

Cow Strengthened up in his

Cudlr.
AS the Judge slowly read the YER
dict of the twelve men, Cow stared
straight at the court until the read
ing of the verdict was finished, when
he sank back into his seat and for a
single instant it looked as IL his
nerve would fail him. He then as
sumed the air of self confidence that
has characterized his actions for the
last two days.
Cow Sticks to His Story
When asked If he had any state
ment to make, Cow said: II made
'he only statement that have to
, - on the witness stand today ami
Ist continue making that state
mes sStCr; >e as l live"
Gov sca/ g. Il bond in the amount
Cow testtn 1ef,. dis own defense
today. He said l-> .ad never had any
improper relations with Lizzie Glea-
son.
Cows attorneys had him relate how
he worked on a farm in Clay county
and hired out to farmers to earn
money with which to educate HIM
self for the ministry. He told of his
college days and how he was COM
PEELED to quit school for while be-
cause of lack of funds.
Only Called on Her Once, He Said
At the conclusion of his testimony,
Cow said he had never called upon
Miss Gleason at her home save once
when he met Lizzie Gleason and her
sister on the street in Elsberry and
accompanied them home at their re-
quest to look at new piano. That
he had never been entertained at
Miss GleasOn's home or at her board
ing place.
Cow, who was a minister of the M.
E. church, South, at the time of Miss
Gleason's death, was deposed from
the ministry after a trial at the an
nual church conference in Hannibal,
Mo-, last August.
DR.. Hemphill, who is accused with
Cow, was tried and convicted of COM
plicity in the girls murder last July
He appealed to the supreme court.
Lizzie Gleason, the teacher of the
Smith district school, near Elsberry,
Mo-, died last Februay after a sudden
illness. The young woman called her
mother to her bed the day of her
death, according to Mrs. Gleason, and
accused Cow and DR.. Hemphill. She
said that her daughter asked that the
secret be kept unless she died.
IF recover it must never be
known" she said. IF die it cannot
harm me-"
Cow and DR.. Hemphill were arrest
ed after the coroner's inquest
Cow preached often at the Smith
chapel near the school house and
Miss Gleason was regular attendant
at his services. The evidence showed
that the pastor often escorted the
girl to and from her school.
