musicians in the city should be
present. One forgets during Its
rendition whether the place which
Goring+Thomas occupies among
modern composers is great or small,
nor does it seem to matter. The
music and words weave a spell Of
poetry braided Of golden verse and
silver music that holds thehearer by
its constantly changeful beauty. The
death song Of the swan leaving
sunshine and blue skies forever the
morning carol of the soaring lark
thrilling with JOY Of life, the thnts
stirred in the heart of the poet,
mingle with iniescrible beauty with
the summer wind, the flooding sim,
the lights and shadows of the
woodland and the odor Of wild
flowers, all pictured by the mnr-

DR.. Thor. Moeller's Trial Is On
Quite Hard Time To Select Jury-Gina Liens Father the
First Witness---Dr lnstad Tells of Advice

life Of his daughter, that she had
been apparently well when she was
last at home. and they had no idea
that she was in trouble. She taught
music in several OF the towns near
Union. ] d.
DR.. Ingstad Of Grand Forks was
called by the state. He testified
that Gina. Lien shortly before com.
ing to Minot, has visited his Office,
Informed him Of her condition. and
asked that he perform an operation
upon her. The doctor gave her
some good fatherly advice about
not having the operation performed,
AND she left after promising that
she would have none perform ned.
She came to Minot a day or so
after visiting his office and three
days from the time she arrived
there she was dead.
DR.. Larson, who was coroner at
the time that DR.. Moeller was
placed under arrest, took the stand.
The attorneys for the defense
gave the doctor a severe cross ex-
animation, be he proved that
he knew what he WAS
talking about. His evidence
2ertained mainly to the structure
of that portion of the body affect
ed by the operation.
The state is represented by
States Attorney Nash and his as
slstant George l.. Ryerson and A.
torney Sinkler from Grafton, VINO
assisted the state during the hea--
ing some weeks ago.
The attorneys for the defense
are f. T. Sutton and Judge Pa1da
of Minot, Judge Engerud of Fargo
and Attorney Bateson of RolIa. .a
The case will be bitterly fought
and will require all of this week,
and very likely part of next. ~

DR.. Thor Moeller is on trial in
district court, charged with murder
in the second degree. The court
room was packed Tuesday after
noon by those who desired to hear
the evidence in this much talked
|of case.
1t was quite a task to secure a
jury, practically all OF the present
venire having read Of the case, and
had formed some opinion. During
the examination of the jurors, it
was ascertained that nine out of
every ten Of them read the Warl
County Independent, so kept we'll
informed as to the happenings of
the county. Finally the following
jury was secured
r. B. Brown of Sherwood, N d.
o. M. Peterson, Coteau
Gust Keilbach, Sherwood.
Louis Bintz, Donnybrock.
Anton Johnson, Minot.
r. G. Emerson Bowbells,
J. B. scalf, Kenmare.
c. E. Spencer, Tolley.
A. w. Mc'Masters, Tolley.
Chas. Haberle, Flaxton.
c. A. Peterson, Ignite.
Chas. F. Schwartz, Bowbells.
Many believed that it would re-
quire at least three days to- secure
a jury, but it seems that while sew.
eral members Of the jury selected
had read of the case, none of them
had formed an opinion.
The first witness called by the
state was Erick Lien of Union. n.

woman who died from the effects
OF a criminal operation, and whose
death the state is endeavoring to
prove was caused by DIR. MoeIicr,

Prominent Church Worker Makes Re
markable Confession.

Los Angeles, Nov. 13.-A confession
which officers at the sheriff Is office con-
slider the most remarkable one that ever
came to their notice was made today to
Sheriff Hammill by Robert Perry, a
young church worker and writer of sa-
cred songs, who was arrested several
days ago for theft of motorcycle.
Perry confesses not only to the theft
of the motorcycle, but also to the theft
of IL horses and buggies, and says that
all of the money he obtained from the
sale of the stolen vehicles aggregated
several thousand dollars, and had been
spent at gambling.
Perry tells the sheriffs the probable
whereabouts of one very valuable horse
which he says he stole, and which the
sheriff has been searching for for sew
eral weeks. The remarkable confession
ends with a prayer to God to aid the
sheriff to recover the stolen property
and return it to the rightful owners.

MOB IS QUELLED.

Cairo, H., Nov. 13.-With the negro,
Arthur Alexander, last of those arrested
in connection with the murder here last
Wednesday of Miss Anna Pelley, safe
out of town and regiment of the Hi
nOis National Guard on duty in the
town, the mob spirit which has held
Cairo for four days seems quelled.
Alexander, reported to have been i'm
plicated in the murder of Miss Pelley
by the negro James, one of the victims
of last night Is mob, was sent to an un-
announced point north of here late yes,
terday afternoon. He was escorted
from the Jail to special trains by
seven companies of militia.
"That's himl" "He II come backl' -
Burn the niggerl" and Gwen get

Two sets of fours were in advance of
the prisoner, who was handcuffed and
flanked by deputy sheriffs Two sets

Twentieth street, three companies
cleared the street in advance of the es
cort, and like number followed in the
rear, keeping back the crowds.

WORKING FOLK LOSE JOBS.
New Beer and Tobacco Taxes Cause
Hardship in Germany.

Berlin, Nov. l5.-Not only is the la.
Dor market suffering from the reduc-
tiOn of work in the cigar and cigarette
trade as a direct result of the new
taxes, but similar depressions are gain
ing ground in other industries, espe'
cially in that of brewers. There is
every reason to believe that the de
preston will become more acute within
the next few months, and that the
Reichstag will be called upon to vote
for a further sum for the relief of the
workless factory hands, as the 100000
pounds sterling already voted for this
purpose is quite insufficient.
The brewers having put up the price
of beer in consequence Of the new
taxes, the result has been consider
able decrease in the consumption, ag
gravated by boycott organized by
the Social Democrats. As a result OF
this, workmen have been discharged
and if the boycott continues the mum
ber of dismissed hands will increase
In August the average number of ap
plicants for a hundred open situations
in the brewing trade was 30s higher
than in any other industry. In Wur
temberg the number of applicants
showed the maximum of 3S5.

NAPoLEoN's FLAG is FOUND.
Great Warriors Invention Exhibited
at Paris Army Museum.

Paris, Nov. Is. - Lord Archibald
Campbell has presented to the Army
museum here a curious relic of Ma
poleon. This is the flag which the
latter flew in the Isle of Elba during
his captivity there.
General Niox, custodian of the muse
um, has placed it in one of the rooms
where it can now be seen. The flag
which seems to have been entirely in
vented by Napoleon, although some
say that it was in part suggested by
that of Cosmo del Medici, former
sovereign of the island, is rather {
strange standard. 1t is square, white
and fringed with gold, bearing three
golden bees and a diagonal scarlet
stripe. The staff carries white an(
scarlet scarf, having also three colder
bees.
Napoleon does not seem to have use(
the flag he invented elsewhere than IL
the Isle of Elba, where he was de
throned and captive monarch.

Coal Shaft at Cherry, III, Scene Of
Terrible Disaster.


Cherry, H., Nov. l5.-At least $50
miners were killed here Saturday, in
one of the worst mine disasters of his
tory. The st. Paul Coal company s
mine, owned by the Chicago, Milwau-
kee & st. Paul railroad, is the scene
of the horrible disaster.
Figures differ as to the number of
men in the mine at the time of the
ire. Officials of the company insist
that the list of fatalities may not
reach 250, but the miners say that
over 400 workmen were in the mine
when the fire started and that few
had opportunity to escape.
Fire started from a pile of hay into
which a miner is believed to have
thrown torch. Flames quickly spread
to the timbers and in a few minutes
the passageways were seething fur
mace, and escape was impossible.
Men who volunteered to enter the
burning mine were brought out dead.
Twelve bodies have so far been reeov-
cred, many of these being men who at
tempted to rescue work
Water turned into the shaft made
no headway against the flames, and
early in the afternoon the mine was
sealed up in the hope of checking the
flames.
The survivors said many of the
miners had retreated TO the further.
most ends of the veins, where they
might huddle together, gasping what
little oxygen remained in the sealed
and burning mine in the hope that the
rescuers might reach them before il
was exhaused. The most hopeful OF
those seeking to aid the men doubt
that many will be found alive.
The only men to escape were those
near the main shaft when the fire
started. They declared careles:
miner had thrown torch on a bundle
of hay used to feed the mine mules
In few minutes the smouldering mas:
was placed on cart and started
toward the main shaft about $50 feet
away Before it was reached a small
explosion occurred and in a few mo
ments the entrance was filled will
smoke and flames Those nearest the
cages hurried to them and were hoisteC
to the surface. After four trips the
cages ceased moving and no more
