Son Opposes Fathers View,

Mankato.--Samuel Kirby, Jr., the
son of Samuel R. Kirby, the man who
claims that Mrs. Belle Guinness, the
alleged La Porte murdc7ess is en-
ployed as a domestic on his brothers
farm near Willmar, is inclined to be-
l1eve that his father is on the wrong
track and that the woman at Willmar
is not the much-sought Mrs. Guinness.
According to young Kirby his uncle
In Willmar engaged the housekeeper,
who is now in the limelight, at a St.
Paul employment agency.
About two months ago, mutual
friends of the two brothers wrote to
the brother residing at Mankato,~ and
insisted that he proceed at once to his
brothers home.
Thinking the situation serious he at
once left for his brothers farm and
demonstrated with him for keeping the
woman as a housekeeper. After re-
naming at the farm for two days, dur
Ing which time the brothers continual

Guinness recently in an old newspaper
and was Immediately impressed by
what he thought a great likeness be-
tween the La Porte woman and his
sons housekeeper
AS consequence of this decision on
his part he notified the police officials,
who have now taken charge of the in

Great Britain-alas and alack, what empty
honor The English we're smarting under the
humiliation of losing the colonies The king
and queen were civil to the point of boorish-
ness, the people arrogant and insulting, the
press scurrilous and abusive, the nobility in
absolute ignorance of the new nation across
the ocean. Mrs. Adams declared that Mr. Pitt
and Lord Carmarthen were the only two men
IN England who seemed to have liberal ideas
concerning America. When, after three
years. stay in Grosvenor square Mr. Adams
was recalled to become vicepresident of the
United States Mrs. Adams in commenting on
their coming departure, says, Some years
hence 1t may be pleasant to reside here in the
character of American minister; but with the

the English no one need envy the embassy.">

THE ESKLMO'S PIPE

might otherwise have passed down through
this aperture and SO be lost. The smoking of
such pipe would not last long and we may
presume that very few draws would exhaust

The Eskimos are known to be extremely
skillful in the representation of scenes and
objects, while the Indians of Queen Charlotte's

northwest coast of America are famous for
their carving in wood and in a black slate.
Handsomely carved Eskimo pipes of walrus

Indiana Authorities Send An Officer
to WilImar. to Attempt to Identify
Suspect as Famous
murderess.

Willmar.-That Mrs. Belle Guinness
OF the La Porte, Ind, murder farm
fame, is actually alive and within a
few miles Of this city, is the allegation
OF Samuel Kirby of Mankato. Further.
more, Mr.. Kirby believes that the wo-
man is now housekeeping in the family
of his brother, Gus Kirby, a prosperous
farmer.
Samuel Kirby arrived in this Kan
dfyohi) county last Thursday evening,
intent upon securing the arrest of the
woman, who is known by the name of
Mrs. Vallie Casey.
The county officers do not put much
credence in the rumor.
Several reputable persons who have
seen the suspected woman are loath
to admit that she bore any resem-
blanca to Mrs. Guinness.
Samuel Kirby, senior, of Mankato, is
the only one who believes that the
housekeeper and the unaccounted for
murderess are the same. It is at Sam
uel Kirby's instigation that Samuel
Ball, q representative of the police de.
partment of La Porte, Ind, arrived
here with warrant for the arrest OF
Mrs. Guinness.
The detective is supplied with a de-
tailed description of Mrs. Guinness and
made the first official comparison OF
the physical characteristics of the two
women. The La Porte authorities did
not agree to run down the Willma1
rumor until Samuel Kirby had guar
anteed the expense of their transporta.
ton.
Gustavus Kirby sold the Kandiyohi
county farm last week to Samuel Gar
yer Of Willmar for $4,000. Mrs
Casey, the housekeeper was present
during the negotiations. It is said that
both she and her employer expressed
their intention of going to California
as soon as all of the property was dis
posed of. Sheriff Peter Bonde of this
county is not of the opinion that Mrs
Casey is the much-wanted woman.
In Willmar Samuel Kirby at times
refers to himself as detective and
Is prone to discuss the inability of the
police to catch criminals. He refers
to statistics and say that only two
murderers out of every 100 are eve1
caught and that the country is spend
ing billions of dollars uselessly fo1
protection it does not receive.

whether it would be advisable for
Captain Amundsen's next Polar expe-

of large kites. Seven kites were used
and their surfaces varied in size from
IS to 225 square feet. 1t was proved
that this system could raise load of
one man to height of $500 feet, and
two men to height of 1900 feet. Tho
kites can be raised from a ship az

outfit can be carried in an ordinary
wagon, and four men can put the
whole system in operation in about
an hour.
