Type Declares Public
Prosecutor.

Minneapolis, Jan 13-Character-
izing the defendant as "a murderer
Of the most tiendish type" Prosecu-
tor George w. Armstrong pleaded
with the jury late today to convict
Frederick Z. Price, a Minneapolis
business man on trial in the district
court here charged with numbering
Mary Fridley Price, his third Wife,
for her fortune.
Reach Jury Today.
When the prosecutor completed his
arguments to the jury, court recessed
until tomorrow morning. NJ. G. Brady,
chief counsel for the defense, then
will argue in behalf Of Price, and the
case probably will reach the jury
shortly after noon. .
Court Room Packed.
In courtroom packed to over
flowing, the prosecutor tersely re-
viewed the evidence, which he de-
clared, Shows beyond the shadow of
a doubt that Price lured his wife to
y the East River road cliff on the night
of November 2S, 1914, on the pre-
tense of giving her an ounting, hurled
her on the rocks below, went TO her
side and knelt down, but instead Of
praying for forgiveness, seized a rock
and crushed her head"
This, gentlemen the prosecutor
shouted. "is the crime of the mali
who asks you for freedom that he
may continue his checkered career"
The "Iron Man. =.
Price, who has been referred to
during the trial as the iron man
listened closely to the words of the
prosecutor with no show of emotion.
Tried to involve Etchison.
Before resting its case, the defense
placed on the witness stand DR.. D. T..
Cowles, who was present at the
autopsy on the body of Mrs. Price.
injuries about the head, could have
been caused by a blow from a mon
key wrench. The defense has tried
to show that if the woman was mur
dered, Charles D. Etchison, the chief
witness who testified Price killed his
wife, struck the blow while Price was
repairing his automobile.
Destroyed Will.
Etchison, young travelling man
OF Washington, who after his arrest
on joint indictment with Price,
swore Price paid him for his silence,
was recalled to the stand by the
state and testified that Price had de-
stroyed Mrs. Prices will.
Mrs. Etchison on Stand.
Mrs. E4chison also took the stand
and wept as she denied Prices testi-
mony that she lived with Etchison
before thier marriage. Hundreds of
women present also wept. Contrary
to expectations, Carrie Olson Price,
the defendants fourth wife, was not
called upon to testify for the de-
fense

birth Of A
NATION WAS
BIC SUCCESS
The Wonderfully Sad Story of
the Reconstruction Period
Pleased All.
THE LITTLE COLONEL
WAS SPLENDID TYPE
OF the Best of the Chivalrous Ar.
istocracy Of the Old
South.

Never has the history of the period
Of Reconstruction been SO vividly
and faithfully portrayed as when The
Birth OF A Nation was shown at the
AuditoriunL Thursday night. In
every particular the filming had been
done with the greatest exactness so
that the story of the Ku Klux Klan
and the emergence Of the South from
the domination of the carpetbaggers
and their ignorant minions, could be
honestly and clearly shown. The ef-
fects, the scenes, the characters,
were such that anyone at all familiar
with the history of the days succeed
ing the close of the Civil War, could
Immediately recognize and realize
the story while containing it's pretty
romance, is wholly historical. That

white race who had held the negro
in slavery, from an aristocracy to an
industrial factor in the government
of the United States.
White and Black.
"The east is east, and the west is
west, and never the twain shall
meet" was amply demonstrated by
the picture in such a delicately re-
fined way, that the most partisan
could find nothing within the entire
series of pictures that would cause
the first inclination toward race hat
red or prejudice. However, the fact
was shown so clearly and so sue
cinctly that amalgamation or inter-
marriage between the two races, is
an utter impossibility. The line is
drawn and the recognition of the
status of the two races, as given in
The Birth of Nation, will be an ad-
vantage to both, and side by side
they can advance in harmonious rela-
tions to the highest in education and
industrial freedom.
The Music Was Superb.
The music, selected with a piece
appropriate to each and every scene,
was superb. The orchestra played
true to time and the various patriotic
airs of the North and South were
given so perfectly, that many stated
the music alone was superior to

FREE PHILIPPINES
Urges Absolute Independence as
Moral Duty Of This
Nation.

Washington, jan Ex-senator Nc
Cumber of North Dakota, republican,
today advocated giving the people of
the Philippine Islands independence,
asserting that the United States not
only was morally bound to such an
action, but that possession of the
islands was a constant menace from
a military point of view. He intro
duced an amendment to the pending
bill for extending to the Philippines a
greater degree of f-government,
which would authorize the president
to seek an International agreement
to guarantee the autonomy OF the
island, aid the Filipinos in establish
ing a stable government and then
to proclaim independence. A vote on
the bill is expected Saturday.
