MAN ACCUSED OF FORGERY.

Fergus Falls. = Richard M. Hayes
of Minneapolis, was brought to
trial in the district court in this city
on a charge of forgery of the will OF
the later Peter Prinzl. Mr.. Prinzl died
in 1908 and his only heirs were broth.
ers and sisters living in Austria.
A month after his death. Mr.. Hayes
brought in the will for probate, be.
queathing his property, amounting to
about $4,000, to his wife's relatives,
who reside in Wisconsin. This will
was drawn six months before Prinzls
death and Hayes claimed it was
brought to him by one of Mrs. Prinzl's
brothers about three weeks after
PrinzPs death. This man claimed that
he had received it by mail with no let
ter accompanying it, the previous No
vember.
The will was admitted and the prep
erty divided, but it is now claimed it
is a forgery and the state proposes to
prove that it was drawn on Mr.. Hayes
own typewriter. This typewriter will
be brought in as evidence and the case
hinges largely on peculiarities of let
ters and papers filed by Hayes in Min
neapolis courts which are to be
brought in to show that they were writ
ten on the same typewriter as the will.
A large number of witnesses are pre-
pared to testify that the signature is a
forgery. Hayes is practicing law in
Minneapolis.

problem tuberculosis is to the ordi-

of over $4,000 communicates of
twenty denominations, and from 208
cities and towns in IL states in vari-
GUS parts of the country, out of nearly
1000 deaths in 1910, over 700 or 10
per cent, were caused by tuberculosis.
This means 2.24 deaths for every thou

tuberculosis compared with other dis
eases is not higher in the churches,

death rate, as shown by the church

SCRATCHED TILL BLOOD RAN

when my boy was about three
months old his head broke out with a
rash which was very itchy and ran
watery fluid. We tried everything we
could but he got worse all the time,
till it spread to his arms, legs and
then to his entire body. He got so
bad that he came near dying. The
rash would itch SO that he would
scratch till the blood ran, and a thin
yellowish stuff would be all over his
pillow in the morning. I had to put
mittens on his hands to prevent him
tearing his skin. He was so weak
and run down that he took fainting
spells as if he were dying. He was
almost a skeleton and his little hands
were thin like claws.
'He was bad about eight months
when we tried Cuticura Remedies
had not laid him down in his cradle
in the daytime for long while I
washed him with Cuticura Soap and
put on one application of Cuticura
Ointment and he was so soothed that
he could sleep. You don't know how
glad I was he felt better. 1t took one
box of Cuticura Ointment and pretty
near one cake of Cuticura Soap to
cure him. I think our boy would have
died but for the Cuticura Remedies
and I shall always remain firm
friend of them. There has been no
return of the trouble. 1 shall be glad
to have you publish this true state
ment of his cure" (Signed) Mrs. M.

HIBBlNc FOR REFORM.
Garbage Collection, curfew Ordinance
and Sane Fourth of July.

HlDD1ng.-By special direction OF
the town council Hibbing will present
all the evidences of model town dur,
Ing the coming summer If the rules
ana ordinances being put into effect
are enforced.
FIRST and most important is the rigid
enforcement of the garbage ordinance.
Al the recommendation of the health
cihcer, DR.. Adams, new and more
comprehensive ordinance was passed.
The city will purchase special fiy-tight
garbage cans and will sell these at
cost to the citizens. The residents
VIII not be forced necessarily to pur-
chase cans from the city, but they will
be forced to use flyproof receptacles,
and to keep them closed.
AT the request of certain women of
Hibbing who appeared at the council
last night the curfew ordinance will
be enforced during the ensuing sum-
mer. One long blast will be blown on
the fire whistle, to sound the curfew,
as the old fire bell is not loud enough
to serve the purpose.
Another ordinance to receive atten-
tion was the one restraining the use of
firecrackers and fireworks in the vii
lage limits; a new ordinance was
drawn up by Village Attorney Robert
Stratton at the request of three of the
councillors, but the old one was found
to answer the purpose and the record
er was requested to notify the police
department to see to the rigid enforce
ment of the law. The ordinance pro,
vides for safe and sane Fourth of
July and there seems to be every in
dication that it will be carried out.
