the trio who maltreated the poor girl,
was convicted last week and sentenced
to 20 years. Imprisonment in the Still
water penitentiary; Jernberg, who
pleaded guilty to a minor offense and
was sentenced to the ST.. Cloud re-
formatory last summer, pleaded guilty
on Monday to the crime of rape, and
was sentenced to serve Is years at
Saltwater: Sullivan is still at large.
The scene of the crime was in that
part of the city of St. Cloud located
in Sherburne county, and it is too
bad that Sherburne county should be
called upon to stand all the expense
of capturing and trying the scoun-
drels. It would be no more than fair
for the state to reimburse Sherburne
county. That can be done by act of
the legislature.

Temperance Addresses.

Interesting, indeed, were the TEN.
perance addresses delivered on Sun.
day by those well-known speakers,
Rev. E. G. Clemans, D. D., and W.
1. Norton, of the Anti-Saloon league.
Rev. Clemans spoke in the morning at
the Methodist church and Mr.. Norton
at the Congregational. In the after.
noon Rev. Clemans delivered an
address at Greenbush and Mr.. Norton
at Zimmerman, while both spoke at a
union meeting held at the opera house
in the evening. One of the features
of this meeting was the splendid music
rendered by the choir of the Methodist
church.
At each meeting where these gentle
men spoke there was good at
tendance and everyone appeared to
appreciate the able discourses. Both
are excellent speakers, we'll versed in
their subjects, and we're people to
follow their teachings the world
would be a great deal better than it is
today.

MRS. K. HOPPE DEAD
Passes Away After an Illness of Brief
Duration at Her Home in the
Village of Princeton.
Remains Taken to St. Paul for Infer.
ment and Funeral Will Be I'd
Held in That City Today.

Mrs. Karl F. Hoppe died at her
home in north Princeton on Satur-
day, November 20, aged 6S years. She
had been sick but nine days and the
cause of death was lung fever.
The remains were taken to st.
Paul on Tuesday, where they will be
buried today. Rev. Kunz will conduct
the ceremonies. Three sons and
daughter, viz, Chas. F., Emil G.,
Frank b. and Mrs. Louise Hansen,
all of st. Paul, accompanied the re-
mains, they having come up from the
capital city for that purpose. The
husband of Mrs. Hoppe also went to
St. Paul to attend the funeral and
will hereafter live there with one of
his children.
Mrs. Hoppe was born in Germany
on November 4. l841, AID, with her
husband, came to America on July
26, 1874, locating in Wisconsin. She
was married in 1864. On November
Is, 1879, the family moved to Blue
Earth county, Mimi, and remained
there until seven years ago, when they
came to Princeton. Mrs. Hoppe is
survived by a husband, four sons and
five daughters. All of the children
reside in st. Paul.

Practical Politics.

A political Office in a small town in
Iowa was vacant. The Office paid $3.50
a year, and there was keen competi.
ton for it. The democratic candi-
date, Ezekiel Hicks, was shrewd old
fellow, and a neat campaign fund was
turned over to him. To the astonish-
ment of all, however, he was defeated.
II can't account for it" said one OF
the democratic leaders gloomily
"With that money we should have
won. How did you lay it out, Eze.
kiel?"
"Well," said Ezekiel slowly, pulling
his whiskers, Eyer see, that Office only
pays $3.50 year salary, an I didn't
see no sense in payin' 5000 out to gel
the Office, so just bought me little
truck farm instead.-Lippincott's.

Miller Unsuccessful.

Young Miller of Minneapolis, the
champion welterweight wrestler of the
world, engaged in wrestle at armory
hall on Friday with Ben Hass, in
which the former was to throw the
latter twice in an hour. Harry Pratt
refereed the contest. Miller proved
himself a whirlwind, but only sue
ceeded in getting Hass down once in
the stipulated time. This fall was ac-
complished in 1917 minutes. There is
every Indication that Hass will ere
long become wrestler of the first
order.
E. J. Martineau of St. Paul accom-.
panied Young Miller to Princeton.
Mr.. Martineau is one of Miller's
hackers.

DELIGHTFUL RECITA
Hamlin Hunt, Renowned Or9anist,
Electrifies Audience at the
Congregational Church.
r1rS. Alberta Fisher Ruettell, Noted
Soprano Soloist, Sings Num-
Der of Fine Selections.

The organ recital at the Congrega-
tional church on Tuesday evening was
a veritable treat for people who love
classical music-it was the first organ
recital that the people of Princeton
have had an opportunity of attending
in their home town and the audience
which greeted Hamlin Hunt and Mrs.
Alberta Fisher Ruettell was a large
and appreciative one.
Mr.. Hunt proved to be all that was
claimed for nina virtuoso in his
profession. He played the many diff
cult pieces on the program with mar
.velous skill both as to execution and
expression.
Mrs. Alberta Fisher Ruettell, So
prano soloist, who is known to many
Princeton people, was at her very best
upon this occasion. She possesses a
delightfully."- sweet voice of wide com
pass and is one of the most accom-
plished soloists in the state. Seven
regular numbers were sung by Mrs.
Ruettell and she responded to mum
Der of encores. Many of the ladies
who attended the recital tell US that
they would not have tired hadn't con-
tinued until daylight, and expressed
the hope that they would at some fu-
ture time again have the pleasure OF
listening to Mr.. Hunt and Mrs. Ruet-
tell in the Congregational church.
The organ, which arrived here on
Tuesday morning, is perfect instru-
ment in every respect and we'll adapted
to the size of the church in which it
has been placed. It is an Aeolian,
two manuel, pedal bass pipe instru.
ment, melodious to high degree and
prettily embellished.

Nautical School Of Cookery.

The shhip's cook ordinarily works
up from the bottom, but in England
they have a nautical school for cooks.
The lessons include the preparation
of a full course dinner every day
made entirely of the foods that can be
carried economically on shipboard.
The school has been in existence for
one year, and 22l men and boys have
become ''sea cooks" In serving a
sea cooked dinner the table should
have at least one bottle of golden
grain belt beer to each guest. This is
the best part of the dinner as you will
readily know when you try it. Order

Notes.
The petit jurors were discharged on
Tuesday afternoon.
Ed. Moore and William Roach of
Onamia we're in attendance at court
during the week.
So heavy was the calendar at this
term that Judge McClenahan found it
necessary to hold night sessions.
Fay Cravens, editor of the Milaca
Times, was in court as a witness in
the Locke-Shuver case on Tuesday.
The grand jury was discharged at
noon on Thursday, November Is,
having been in session two and a
half days. No indictments we're re-
turned.
1t was the heaviest calendar in
years and had it not been for holding
night sessions and the dispatch with
which Judge McClenahan conducted
business the term would have lasted
several days longer.
The official court stenographer, Mr..
Geo. W. Moody, understands his bus
mess thoroughly and is an accommo-
dating gentleman. This is his first
visit to Princeton and he is in love
with our town.
The grand jury carefully and con-
scientiously considered all matters
brought before them and then refused
to return any indictments. 1t was
good grand jury, composed mainly of
substantial farmers, and they per-
formed their duty we'll and faithfully.
If pressure of business again neces-
states the drafting OF an outside
judge at some future term of court in
this county the Taxpayers will enter
no objection if Judge McClenahan is
chosen. By expediting business at
the term just closed he saved the tax
payers several hundred dollars.
While one of the jurors in the
ROttier vs.. Sleeves case may have
been indiscreet we do not for a
moment believe he was guilty of any
misconduct, and we do know that
there were men on that jury that no
living man could unduly influence
men who would render a verdict ac-
cording to the law and evidence as
they understood it without fear or
favor. It is too bad that because one
juror may have been guilty of an un-
Intentional indiscretion and a lawyer
over-zealous in behalf of his client
the entire jury should be subjected to
severe censure. The writer has known
several of the jurors who tried the
case for more than thirty years and
has never known one of them to be
guilty of a dishonorable act.
