After consultation with the attor-

This case is that of F. Pierce & Co.

Judge Stanton requested the at.
torneys to so arrange cases as to be
able to proceed expeditiously with
the trials hereafter.
One of the most important cases
that will be considered at this term
of court is that of Johnson VS.. Koch,
as Administrative of the estate of her
son, Edward Johnson, deceased, has
entered suit to recover the sum of
$4,000 damages, alleging that the

whereabouts are not known so the
case was dropped for the present.
The case of J. M. Davis VS.. L. T..
MOnSon was ordered stricken from

No other attorneys were ready
with their cases for trial as it had
been expected that the Akerberg-

{ so court was adjourned until 9
O'Clock tomorrow morning.

of stumps with dynamite. One hum
dred pounds of dynamite will be
used in these demonstrations. Mr.
| Wilson will show how easy it is to
get stumps when the work is done
right. He will also show the wrong
way of doing the work. Any farmer
can learn how to do his own dyna-
hitting, and clear his lands at low
cost. Arrangements will be made
for furnishing dynamite to the far
mers at trade prices"
Mr.. Mackenzie says that arrange.
ments have been made to hold the
institute in the city hail in the fore
noon, and that the demonstrations
of stump removing will be- given at
the west end of Twelfth street.

farmers and others attending the

Improving Slowly.

R. A. Perrault, who was injured

Earlier Twin City Mail.

Owing to the new night service
which has been put on by the NJ. St
I. and the Northern Pacific between
International Falls and the twin
cities, mail which formerly came
from St. Paul and Minneapolis by
way of Crookston and arrived here
at noon now gets in Bemidji on the
8:15 M. & I. train in the morning.
There is no mail clerk on the night
train from Brainerd to Funkley,
where the clerks on the day train
lay over, consequently the twin city
mail, which gets here in the morn
ing, is made up by the clerks at
Funkley and bears the Funkley
postmark.

in another suit against Mr.. Mayo, the charges
being practically the same as those contained
in the former case, with the added clause
charging that the defendant was not duly
licensed pharmacist al the time the much dis
cussed powders were put up.
1t is intimated that before this case is ever
taken up by the district court, it will be taken
to the supreme court
In district court this morning, on
motion of the plaintiff, the $4,000
damage case of Mathilda Akerberg
Gas administrative of the estate of
Carl Akerberg, deceased) VS.. F. A..
Mayo, was dismissed, w. E. Rowe,
as attorney for the plaintiff, stating
to the court that circumstances
were such that his client did not
care to continue the case, which he
desired dismissed, without prejudice
to the plaintiff. This ended, for the
present at least, a case which has
caused much comment and has at
tracted considerable attention.
The exact accusation made by the
plaintiff against Mr.. Mayo was that
the latter had illegally and wrong
fully compounded prescription so as
to contain or include IN overdose of
strychnine poisoning resulting in the
death of Carl Akerberg, in Septem-
Der, 1907.
All of yesterday afternoon was
occupied in obtaining a jury, and
prior to adjournment of court, w.
E. Rowe of Crookston, as attorney
for Mrs: Akerberg, asked to have the
case held open until o'clock this
morning, for the appearance of
material witness from Minneapolis,
Mr.. Rowe stating that if the witness
failed to arrive it would probably be
necessary to dismiss the case.
E. E. Mcdonald of this city,
representing Mr.. Mayo, stated he
hoped that if the case was to be
dismissed, such action would be
taken before adjournment, so as to
save lot of unnecessary expense in
bringing material witnesses to Bemidji
on behalf of the defendant.
Judge Stanton allowed Mr.. Rowe
until this morning to decide as to
whether the case would be dismissed
or the trial proceed; the jury not
being sworn, also at Mr.. Rowe's re-
quest.
Mr.. Rowe, this morning, immedi-
ately moved for dismissal of the
case, the jury not being sworn.
Among the witnesses who we're in
the city prepared to testify for the
defendant in this case were Prof.
Julius Hartvect, state chemist of St.
Paul, and Prof. N. Lehnen of St.
Paul an analytis chemist.
When the Akerberg case had been
disposed of, the resumption of other
cases was taken up by the court
and some time spent in arranging
suits for immediate trial, there hav-
ing been a general opinion among
the attorneys that the Akerberg case
would have taken the remainder of
