ST. Paul, June 29.-(Special to the

the making of a soil and sociological
survey of the state of Minnesota. 1t
is the idea of Dean A. F. Woods of
the State Agricultural college that
the immigration coming to the state
should be put where they can do the
most good for themselves He will
have a map of the state showing not
only where the soil is best adapted
for corn and potatoes, but also where
the Methodists live and where the
community is all Catholic. He will
give this information to the state i'm
migration commissioner for the ben
eft of intending settlers so that a
Presbyterian man who can raise corn
will not settle in a community of
Catholics who raise wheat.
Each man will be placed where he
will be in the most congenial COM
pany and where he can best use his
ability.

NO ONE KNOWN INJURED

Two freight wrecks Friday tied up
passenger trains into Bemidji and
caused some property loss. Friday
afternoon, an eastbound 500 freight
left the track about four miles east
of Bemidj1 ana threw six cars OF the

freight and fiat cars and one old pas
senger coach that the crew was able
to pick up in the Thief River freight
yards. The regular coaches went
west this noon.
A log train was wrecked near Miz-
pah on the M. and I. Friday and the
south bound passenger, due in Be-
midi at AS, did not reach the city
until a., m. this morning. AS far as
can be learned, no one was injured in
either wreck.

CARL AKERBERG
Mother Won Civil Suit for $4,000
and Second Trial is Set for Sep
TENDER Term.

In a decision handed won Friday
the state supreme court ruled that
Frank A. Mayo, formerly a druggist
in Bemidji, must stand trial for hav-
ing permitted the sale of strychnine
from his store, said strychnine alleg-
ed to have caused the death of Carl
Akerberg, also resident of Bemidji
The decision sustains the overruling
of a demurrer by Judge Stanton in
district court.
Mayo's demurrer was to an indict-
ment brought by the grand jury
charging him with having permitted
the vending of poisons, without the
supervision of registered pharma-
cist or assistant, which resulted in
the death of human being. The
demurrer argued that the indictment
was indefinite in that it failed to
state the manner in which the drug
was sold or by whom. The court held
that the naming of the purchaser
kept the Indictment from being de-
fective.
Carl Akerberg died in 1907 and it
was alleged at the time that his
death resulted from the taking of
strychnine bought at the Mayo store
Action was at once started by Ma
thilda Akerberg, his mother and ad-
ministratrix, and in 1908 the grand
jury brought in an Indictment Ac-
ton on the Indictment was deferred
pending the outcome of civil action
in which Mrs. Akerberg won yer.
dict for $4,000 damages. If found
guilty on the criminal action, Mayos
penalty may be not more than seven
years in the penitentiary, or fine of
not over $1,000, or both. Under the
present law, penitentiary sentence
would be indeterminate
When action on the indictment
was resumed following the settlement
of the civil case, attorneys for Mayo
demurred to the Indictment but were
overruled by Judge Stanton. They
appealed the ruling to the supreme
court and that court upheld the Stan
ton ruling and remanded the case to
the district court for further proceed
ings. The case will probably be tried
at the September term of court. The
syllabus follows, the opinion having
been written by Chief Justice Start:
The Indictment herein is based up
on Sec. 2340 R. L. 1905, and purports
to charge the defendant with the
crime of permitting the vending OF
poison in his place of business with
out the supervision of a registered
pharmacist, or assistant, which re-
suited in the death of human be-
ing. 1t alleges the name of the per-
son to whom the sale was made, but
not the name of the person making
it; that the defendant knowingly per-
mitted the sale and that the sale was
made without the supervision of a
registered pharmacist or assistant
Held, that the indictment states facts
sufficient to constitute a public Of
Tense. .
Case remanded for further proceed
ings.
