ALLEN CASE IS
SUDDENLY HALTED

According to the Madison Journal
the case against r. T. Allen, charged
with statutory offense, was brought
to sudden stop Saturday when Allen
pleaded guilty to the charge. However
Berdina Puphal, Reedsburg girl
named in the complaint, was exon
Grated when the defendant admitted
that he had been guest at the Madi.
son hotel and had registered with a
woman as his wife but that the wo-
man was not Miss Puphal. The COM
plant was changed to read that he
had been stopping with an unknown
woman" The court assessed fine OF
$500 aud costs which amountt d to $245.
Allen, who was under $1,000 bail,
paid the fine.
Allen was arrested sever i weeks 500

ant being Alice BiIlig, a girl from Chi
cage. After the testimony was taken
IL was found that the evidence was not
sufficient to hold the defendant. The
girl was kept in Jail during the pro-
ceedings and shortly after the dismiss
sal of the case she was allowed 10 90.
She was fired $40 and costs upon
statutory offense and left the same
morning for Chicago. Before the first
case against Allen was dismissed. q
warrant was served upon him charg,
ing him with similar offense, NAM
ing the Puphsl girl as witness. A

to Reedsburg to get the girl but it was
found that she had left that city.

signal company and has offices in the
Washington building.
AT the time of the first trial testi.
mony was given which indicated that

Wisconsin Supreme Court De.
cides against Dietz.
Defender of Cameron Dam Must Expi-
ate Staying of Deputy Sheriff
Oscar Harp. So

Madison, Wis, May Is. - John F
Dietz, of Cameron dam fame, who last
year was sentenced to the state pen
itentiary for the murder of Oscar
Harp, deputy sheriff at the time of the
famous siege on the Dietz homestead,
must remain in prison the rest of his
life, according to a ruling Of the SUI
preme court of Wisconsin, which re-
fused to reverse the judgment of con-
Viction.
Dietz was found guilty of first de-
gree murder, May 13, almost exactly
year ago, after a spectacular trial.
He blamed the lumber trust" whom
he had fought for six years, for what
he termed the persecution of himself
and his family.
CAS- a result of the defendants de-
fance of law" the decision says, COS
car Harp, who was innocent of wrong,
went to his death without warning.
Pity the defendant as we may, we
have no choice on this record. It is
as true now as it was in the days of
the Hebrew prophets that he who
sows the wind must aeds be content
if he be compelled to reap the in
evitable whirlWind."
