protested and the complaint and ar73
rest followed.

pressed "a willingness to drop the easel

GROUNDING FLEES
AS OTHERS RASk
IN WARM SUNLIGHT
Gets "Cold Feet" and Quickly
Retires to Winter Bunk
for Six Weeks.

The grounding saw his shadow!
Which is another way of saying there
will be six weeks more OF winter.
That is, unless signs fail.
Which they are likely to do now and
then.
However.
If the slightest dependence may, in
these new tangled. up-to-date times,
be put in the cid fashioned homemade
weather edict that a sunshiny Febru-
airy Q presages a month and a half
more of winter weather, then 1t may
be just as well to give up any idea of
an early spring.
Our picked scouts were stationed to-
cay in the neighborhood of every
grounding burrow known to flourish in
these PARIS They were instructed to
watch the mouth Of every burrow from
the time the sui came up until the
grounding emerged. These men, at
least those who saw the groundhogs
come out, are unanimous in asserting
that the little animals got cold pigs
feet and retired hastily to winter quar-
tiers.
For the sun rose in an unclouded
sky, and none but a blind or an absent
minded grounding could have failed to
see it. And there is nc excuse for any
hog which got up late, as the sun con-
tinued to shine throughout the day.
even working overtime. when the
eight-hour. winter union day is con-
sidered.
Up to the time of going to press no
n had applied for an injunction to
prevent winter from continuing for six
weeks, so it is altogether likely nothing
will be done about it.

WANT ANOTHER PUBLIC
PARK IN BLOOMFIELD.

The establishment of a public park
in the north end section of Bloom
field was brought UP by Councilman
George Hurnmel at last nights, meet
ing of the Town Council. When bonds
to the amount Of $4,000 were issued
some time g for park and playground
purposes it was understood that $4,000
of the amount was to be expended in
improving the plot Of ground lying be-
tween Franklin and Bay The
spot is admiral bly, adapted for the pur-
pose, and has natural beauty. Mr..
Hummel said it was time something
was done in the matter.
Councilman Walker stated that the
owners of some of the property would
undoubtedly donate it for the purpose.
The question was referred TO the park
committee for investigation and re-
port.

TWO HELD FOR
DEATH THREATS IN

ares in Case.

Accused of writing q "Biack Hand"
letter, threatening death to the reci-
pient, the Kearny police have locked up
for a hearing before Recorder James +.
Kelly. of Kearny, tonight, two Newark
ers. They are Nicholas Caruso, % years
old. of rs Boyden street, and John Del
Buoni. % a old of the same ad-
dress. Maria Rosso. a pretty Italian
girl. II years old, of ia Eighth avenue,
this city, also figures prominently in
the case.
Antonio Vinelli, of AZ Halsted street,
Kearny. is the man whose life is SUD-
posed TO be in jeopardy. He got the
letter on Monday, and, on advice of
friends, went to see United States
Commissioner Samuel F. Bigelow, at
his office in this city, but Mr.. Bigelow
referred Finelli to police headquarters.
There he was advised to see abe police
in kearny. in which place the letter had
been delivered. The result was the is

which the accused were charged with

picked up in this city by Police Chief
William Tolen and Detective Walter
Oliver. of Kearny, aided by Officer Nor
ton, of the Second Precinct station, this
city. yesterday.
The letter. which is in Italian, was
dated January l. 1910, but was not
mailed until last Saturday, and then
posted ir New Yor city. II is signed
"Societa Segreta," and sets forth that
Finelli, by his attentions to Maria
Rosso. has incurred the d~isfavor of the
secret society, and he is warned that
any further attentions to the girl will
cost him his life.
you have Offended this society al
ready in many ways" says the letter,
and you must pay the penalty, IL you
persist In offending. If we don't get
you or the street, we shall kill you in
your bed. Your brother Alfonso has
also given offense, and he, too, must an
swer for it. Don't dare show this letter
to anyone, especially the police, or your
doom will come quickly"
The prisoners, who are held in 50, 800
bail each. deny any knowledge of the
letter. Miss Rosso, however, while not
directly accusing them, gave the i'm
preston in q statement to the police
that the prisoners must have had some
thing to do with the death threat. One
| of them. Del Buonl. who had been her
escort several times, she intimated, is
very jealous of her. Not long ago she,
too. got a Threatening unsigned note
that she would have cause to regret re-
ceiving attentions from any other a
and SO scared was she that she often
induced the special officer in the cigar
factory where she works to escort her
safely home.
Finelli. who is a barber, associated
with his brother Rocco. says that one
night, about four months ago. in this
city, he was chased several blocks by
two men. and a a shot was fired that
grazed his face and tore a piece from
his hat. He blames the prisoners.

LODGE INITIATION GETS
GOAT OF TRENTON FIREMEN.

TRENTON. Feb. 2.-The lurid glare
of red light through the windows on
the third floor of B~radshaw's Hall,
North Clinton avenue and Perry street,
last night caused several boys who wit
messed it from the street to imagine
that the place was on fire, and they
accordingly sent i'll an alarm to head
quarters.
Shortly afterward an initiation Of six
new members being conducted by Iro-
quois Tribe No. SO, L. o. r. M, in the
lodgerooms on the third floor of the
building was interrupted by u number
of firemen bearing chemical extin-
guishers bursting into the room. The
tlre-fighters were surprised equally as
much as the Red Men, and found that
the supposed fire was nothing more
than red light, which constituted the
campfire of the Indians.

AORN|T CHIEFS
NOW ACCUSED CT
MISUSE OF MAILS
President Ellis and Secretary
Graves Indicted by Federal
Grand Jury.

With the arraignment of Charles E.
secretary and treasurer of the defunct
Kornit Manufacturing Company in the
criminal branch of the United States
Supreme Court, in New York today on
a charge of misuse of the mails, the
final move in the prosecution of men
i'll connection with certain business
enterprises, chief among them their
latest venture, the Kornit Company,
was made. Ellis and Graves were ar
rested yesterday by a New York postal
inspector on indictments by the Fed
eral grand jury, and later released un-
der $4,000 bail each by United States
Commissioner Shields. A pathetic in
cident relative to the present prosecu-
tion of Ellis ARISES from the death of
his wife in the holiday season through
burns sustained In an accident in a
New York restaurant.
The failure of the kornit Manufac-
turing Company last summer revealed
business methods that well called in
question. The majority of the inves-
tors in the company, it developed, were
scattered all over the country and few
held moro thar 500 worth of stock.
The total amount involved in the fall
ure mounted to I'VE $500, 900.
The charge on which Ellis and
Graves are now facing prosecution.
however, Is based on their ownership
of the Magazine of Mysteries, Home
Magazine, and other periodicals. The
indictments charge that Ellis and
Graves, in order to sell Kornit shares.
which were set at $40 par, made falsl
representations through their maya
zines. On the witness stand before
Referee in Bankruptcy Edwin G.
Adams in this city, David Bidder, trus-
tee of the bankrupt corporation, forced
admission from Ellis that although he
I'D described Kornit in his periodicals
as being one of the most wonderful in
ventions of the age, with q ready mar
ket awaiting it, he a sold practical
ly all Of the stock he owned in the
corporation to minor subscribers. The
Kornit company was charged with
500, 600 costs for the advertising con-
Quoted through the various magazines
owned by Ellis.
Ellis n Graves are at present be-
ing sued in the local Court of Chan
Gerry for 1896 $50, and for the same
amount in the New York courts. At
tachmcnts on Ellis's New York prop
erty. which includes the Hotel Fred
erick, have been served.

SUIT FOR $1,000 DAMAGES
RESULT OF AUTO ACCIDENT.
Carpenter Wants Remuneration
for His Losses.

James #. Kelly, president of Storms
g. Co., contractors, who lives in East
Orange, was the defendant before Judge
Kelsey and a jury in the Supreme
Court circuit today, in an action for
$1,000 damages brought against him by
Charles Fredericks, a carpenter of
Lakeside avenue, Bloomfield, because
the contractors auto struck the car
penter's horse and wagon in Central
avenue, Orange. November II, 1908. The
horse was injured and his wagon badly
damaged. Fredericks escaped with a
few bruises and the suit is only for
damage done to his property.
The defense, represented by Scott
German, is that it was Frederick's own
fault that he was hurt.

SCHOOL WELL BALKS
EAST ORANGE BOARD,

In order to lay it's mains to ST.
Marks school. Sc hat the pupils will
not have to use the we'll, the West Or
ange Water Company says it will only
extend the lines on the condition that
hydrants will be installed every 500
feet. This plan was discussed at the
Board Of Education meeting along with
an offer from a contractor to dig a well
for $1,000.
The board decided finally to have the
well cleaned and the water, over which
complaints have been voiced, will be
analysed. The town council does not
favor having hydrants installed along
the route as there Is no need for them.
The $1.OG0 bid was considered EXCESSIVE
by the board.
Ernest Il. Child asked what the men,
bers had in view to better conditions at
ST. Marks school, which is too email to
accommodate pupils, and President
Robinson told of the efforts being made
by some residents to have the freehold-
ers and park commission extend a bou-
levard along where the school is located.
If the plan is approved, eventually II
will be necessary to erect a new
school.
Efforts to arbitrate the dispute with
Frank c. kutze, who had the contract
for carpenter work in the addition to
Washington Street School having failed.
the board resolved to advertise for bids
and nave the alleged building defects
corrected. Il is expected that kutze
will carry his case to the courts.

THE JUDGSHlP SCRAP
Tussel for Judge Bakers Shoes is to
Be Between Moorhead and Fergus
Falls Candidates.

Interest in the coming election of a
successor to Judge Baxter of the
Seventh judicial district, who is to re-
tire at the end of his present term is
becoming intense. Referring to the
matter last Saturday, The st. Cloud
Journal-Press had the following to
say:
1.-The contest for the election of a
successor to Judge Baxter of this Judi
cial district is in a fair way Of being a
struggle between Fergus Falls and
Moorhead. John w. Peterson of Long
Prairie and Attorney Johnston of De-
troit are mentioned as republican can
didates. Mr.. Mason is one of the able
attorneys of the state and was the re-
publican candidate for judge six years
ago, being defeated by only a few
votes. Mr.. Peterson is assistant at
torney general, and is conceded to be
the ablest lawyer in the state house.
He has said that If elected he would
remove to Fergus Falls, to better ac-
commodate the people of the district.
This statement made Moorhead sit uu
and take notice, and now G. A. Nye
of that city has announced his can
didacy as the democratic candidate.
He will have no opposition in his party
and whichever Of the republicans win
at the primary election will have to
fight it out with Mr.. Nye.. He is a
successful attorney and is popular.
He has served for several years as a
member of the state normal board, and
Is brother Of Congressman Frank M
Nye of Minneapolis, and of the late
Bill Nye, the great American humorist.
The people generally are not specially
interested in the political views of the
judges-what they want is able, honest
men. We believe all the candidates
come UP to the standard. The pres
ent indications are that Fergus Falls
will back the republican candidate and
that Moorhead VIII fight for Nye
This is rather unfortunate phase of
the contest, but 1t will probably be
fought out on that line"

NO FORMAL COMPLAINT
After Hour Delivery of Booze to BE
Decided Tomorrow--city Attorney
Preparing Complaint.

In the matter of the arrest of Paul
Butterfeld and Walter McCullaugh, by
the police, Saturday night on a charge
of taking away certain consignments
of beer and whisky from the premises
OF the old Midway, after closing hours,
the case has been adjourned until to-
morrow afternoon when it will be heard
before Justice Wade. The two de-
PENDANTS were admitted to bail.
The formal complaint has not yet
been prepared by City Attorney With
crow against the two men nor has one
been filed against ]. e. Johnson so that
he is not yet defendant and was not
included in the arrest on Saturday
night, simply being notified of the ar
rest of the two men, said to be in his
employ and instructed to deliver the
goods in Fargo according to custom.
Considerable interest is centered in
the case as it is expected that prece-
dent will be established, whether it is
lawful to deliver goods in the city, or
over in Fargo, after the time for clos
ing named in the statutes. The claim
Is made that the orders about to be
delivered were filed considerably before
IL p. M, the hour for closing, but the
delivery force had been unable to COM
plete the work before the closing hour.

URGES N. D. FARMERS
TO WEIGH THEIR GRAIN

masters attention is at once calieo TO
your weights al they appear on the
shippers card. AS soon as he mas
weighed your car Of grain ne at once
will notice any shortage and II there
was from one to three thousand
pounds short, which could show you
in hundreds of instances, he would
look the car over carefully for breaks
or leaks which no doubt would ac-
count for the variance in weight ana
would likely find that the car had been
patched or repaired in transit by the
railway company and will make his
notations of same on his daily record
of grain received. If all shipments
of grain were made in accordance with
the above instructions, or suggestions,
it would be of great assistance to the
state weighing department of Minne-
sofa and would be taking direct step
towards enabling the shippers to re-
cover legally all shortage of grain or
losses sustained, by leakage, breakage
or otherwise, from the railway COM
panies.
''The need of exercising greater
care will be readily seen after your
careful consideration of the following
figures showing the total number of
cars of grain weighed in at Mime
apolis and Duluth terminals for pc
Rod of four months, and the condition
of same during the year 1909.
