PLAN DOCKET OF
CRIMINAL CASES
CALENDAR OF CASES TO BE
HEARD AT JANUARY TERM
or COURT WHICH CON-
vENEs MONDAY.

county circuit court viii convene az s
O'Clock on Monday morning next, with
Judge r. IL. O'Brien presiding. The
calendar Of criminal cases has been
completed by Prosecuting Attorney
Mcdonald and consists Of twenty-five
cases. several OF which are continued
over from the November term.
Among the most important and Of
greatest general interest is that Of
Matt Hendrickson. charged with the
murder o. Mrs. Ida Kaarela, who was
shot al her home in ST. Mary's last
November Hendrlckson was found ly-
ling unconscious on the floor beside the
/ body OF Mr.. Kaarela with a bullet
wound in his neck. II is the theory
that Hendrickson shot Mrs Kaarela
and then slightly wounded himself to
give the impression that the shooting
was done by outside parties. The
weapon with which the deed was COM
mitted has never been found. The
complete list OF cases is as follows:
Matt Hendrickson Ankala. murder:
John Hukkala. assault with intent 10

ton with the drowning OF Bernard
Matela at Jacobsville on December 20
takes place before Just--e Little to-
morrow morning Should they be bound

NO INCREASE BY
TAX Commission
VALUES SOUTH SHORE AT $500,
900, DESPITE FACT 1T RE-
TURNED FIGURE or
sf1,t31,ooo.

Early I'm January the lower state pa
pers gave considerable attention 10 the
fact that the South Shore railway,
which is now fighting a two-cent sare
law passed By the last legislature had
reported TO the state tax commission a
value Of $ll.l31.000, compared with Its
then assessed valuation Of $4,000, 099.
Il was commented az the time that this
increase that the South Shore volun-
tarily proposed 10 assume meant in
creased taxes for the road Of $4,000,
and the wise acres about the state
capital "smelt a mice" They sug-
gested that the South Shore was will
ing to stand an Increased valuation
because il would find II helpful 10 the
defense when II came TO put in a case
against the two cent fare law, Tor OBJ
viously the higher valuation the road
has the more earnings IL ought 10
be entitled 10 make.
Now comes the assessment Of the
railroads by the state tax commission.
Does the commission put the South
shore up where IL reports It's own val
uation namely. TO S11.131.00o. and thus
put the state In the way Of getting
some $4,000 more taxes? The tax
commission does not. The South Shore
is in at the old figure Of SO, 6O0. 900 The
commission refuses 10 believe that the
road is worth as much as its officers
have said Il is
What's the answer? Perhaps II the
South Shore planned a coup in the
two cent fare suit by reporting the
higher valuation, the state tax COM
mission has also gone in for coup
By not accepting IT, But whatever he
case is. the answer must be found
without any assistance at this moment
from the South Shore officials. NJ
one In authority IN the road was willing
10 discuss the report that the COM
pany- had reported an Increased yalua-
ton. and no one in authority was
yesterday willing to discuss the inter-
esting fact that the tax commission
had ignored the report ~ &1i.131, 600 Of
valuation and returned the company al
the oh figure Of ss.GO0.0g0. Nor has
anything come from the tax commits
sion in explanation n this rather un-
usual state Of a-airs
The railroad assessments fOr the
state are practically the same as last
year. the combired increases amount
ing 10 only little over 81 100000.

The sea of hard. strange faces un-
nerved her, and she felt sick and nau-
seated, but she quietly held out her
arms for the poor child who lay groan-
ing in the chauffeur's gentle grasp.
A tall young man stepped briskly
through the crowd, and made his way
to her side.
ooh, Doctor Grant-I'm so glad
you're here!" exclaimed Paula i'm
pulsively.
more terrified than injured" an
nounced the doctor after hurried ex-
animation. Then turning to Paula, II
saw it happen from distance up the
street and recognized your car"
Assisting Paula into the motor he
made the child comfortable on her lap
and stepped in with her
"I1l report to you later, Peters," he
called to the policeman, who immedi-
ately permitted them to drive away.
In few minutes they were at the
stricken home. A tired, resigned wo-
man opened the door, and after the
doctors tactful explanation, she mute
ly accepted this last blow which un.
kind fate had seen fit to administer.
While Doctor Grant and the mother
were working over the boy, Paulas
quick eyes took in every detail of the
bare home. Christmas for the many
little Browns promised to be, scanty.
A kind neighbor had taken the other
children to her home, 80 Paula's pres
ence was unnecessary. She slipped
out of the house, gave the chauffeur a
few instructions and as he drove off
rapidly, she sought nearby telephone
booth and after ten very satisfactory
minutes, was back at the house. Her
phone calls we're to certain toy deal
ers and caterers, and long before the
doctor was ready to go, the chauffeur
had shyly dragged baskets and bun
dies of all sizes and shapes into the
wee kitchen.
At last DR.. Grant was ready to
leave.

asked wearily. II have had a hard
