Hart Acquitted.

Hart Acquitted.
Ten minutes suficed for jury in
Circuit Judge Cooper's court yesterday
to bring in verdict of not guilty in
the case against John Hart, accused of
perjury, in giving his evidence in the
district court when George Davis was
acquitted of selling liquor without a
license.
Hart took the stand himself yester-
day morning and, questioned by his at
torney, Leon NJ Straus, testified that
the story he told at the trial of Davis
was absolutely true and would be the
same story he would tell now, that is
that he, and not "Phoney" Davis gave
Grau, Inspector Fennell's agent, the
bottle of gin which Grau claimed he
bought and paid Davis for.
Hart stated that for more than hall
an hour prior to the coming of Grau
into the room in the lodging house on
Richards street Davis had left the place
and had not returned. He was positive
of that because they were playing
poker-the game, in fact, having been
pulled by Chief of Detectives McDuf
fie when he made the raid-and during
|
calls for Davis to furnish new decks
of cards, and Davis boy had said that
Davis had left the place.
Upon DISCRIMINATION by City At
torney Cathcart Hart s testimony was
mistaken, Joe Monaghan gave evi
denee to the effect that Grau came into
the room shaking like man who. was
on the verge of delirium tremens and
that Hart had said in his monaghan 81
hearing: "Give that poor devil drink
or he II die ct the same time hand
ing the boy gin bottle which wat
subsequently taken away by Gran anC
which Grau says he bought from Davis
Robert Ingersoll gave evidence that
at the time Inspector Fennell ani
Grau testified that Davis was seer

at IngersOll's house, block and hall
distant.
Defendant then rested and Cathcart
argued the case for the Territory.
Mr., Straus submitted without argu
ment. The jury were then instructed
by the court and retired, returning il
ten minutes with verdict of no
guilty.

PERFORMING LIONS.
Perils That Come With Managing
Those Vicious Animals.

Perils That Come With Managing
Those Vicious Animals.
/ asked Captain Bonavita once what
he considered his most dangerous mo-
ment when he performed with his
twenty-seven lions. He said that he
thought it was when he first entered
the arena. The moment before. when
he had to drive this great herd of lions
in, was almost as bad, but the first
few minutes when the crowd of lions
entered were terribly uncertain and
undoubtedly the most dangerous.
In the first place. with such crowd
there was the danger of being pushed
or Knocked down. Then there was the
danger of tripping among them or of
stepping on their tails. for many of
them would lie down and roll over and
over as a preliminary to the perform
ance, and if he were not struck by
their feet he was just as likely TO be
struck across the face or body with
their strong, ropeike tails.
In getting them into their places
there was also considerable danger,
for in such a crowd ii is difficult to
treat each animal according to its pc
culiar idiosyncrasies. and flick of the
whip intended for one lion who would
be fairly indifferent to it is likely to
be caught by another to whom it will
mean instant revolt. In any sort of
revolt the whole number will always
side with the one that caused it.-Ellen
Velvin in McClure's.

KEROSENE FOR MOTORS.

1T viii not be long before il will be
possible 20 use kerosene in the oper-
alton of motor engines the same as
gasoline is being used now" said a.
/ O.. Bennett of Minneapolis.
Mr.. Bennett is the inventor of the
/ Bennett carburetor and has had an ex-
/ tcnsive experience with all kinds of
motor engines. He was in Duluth yes
tcrday visiting with Dick" Shell, own
or of the c. dAutremont, Jr., the fast
est speed boat at the head of the
Lakes. Dick" is an old friend of Mr..
Bennett and was the first man in the
city TO install the Bennett carburetor.
Mr. Bennett has been making an ex-
haustive study of the kerosene propo-
stion. He is firm i'm the belief that it
viii be just as efficient, is not more so,
than gasoline and naptha. He states
that it will be possible TO use il in the
same manner, running it through a
carburetor, where it will be vaporized
ana mixed with air and exploded in
the cylinders with an electric spark.
Along with the use of power en-
gines I'm automobiles and motor boats,
Mr. Bennett has collected numerous
statistics in the cost of blowing with
power machines. In one experiment
on eighteen acres he found that the
ground could be broken at an average
cost of less than 20 cents an acre, as
compared with the estimated cost OF
about SLIP for breaking the same
amount of ground in the old style by
the use Of teams.
"Not only is the cost so much less"
said Mr.. Bennett, "but the time saving
feature is most important. a motor
driven machine will work 50 much
more rapidly and cover so much more
territory than the horses, that the up
to-date farmer operating on a large
scale cannot afford TO follow the old
plan any longer. You don't hear much
talk of competition among the farm
crs, but if they are TO hold their own
with their progressive brethren they
must come 20 the use of power machin-
