COUNTY FIRE LOSSES REDUCED
Stearns Makes Splendid Showing with
Remarkably Small Damage
From Flames

Stearns county ranks among those
in Minnesota whose fire loss during
the year ended December 81, 1915,
was considerably reduced as compared
with the previous year.
This is shown by reports issued by
Robert w. Hargadine, state fire MARI
shall. During the 12-month period COW
cred by the report there were 20 fires
with an aggregate loss of $54,076. In
the corresponding period in 1914 there
were 20 fires and the loss aggregated
$185, 1902.
This is an agreeable situation and
shows beyond doubt that the people
of Stearns county are awake to the
necessity of fire protection. There is,
no doubt that the loss would have
been considerably greater if the indi-
vidual householder had not taken pre-
cautions for safeguarding his prop
erty by eliminating the rubbish heap,
keeping gasoline and other inflamma--
BILE materials in their proper places.

ests Of the community in general in

SMITH and PICKIT
"CUT" EACH Other
TOGETHER FIRST TIME SINCE
ARRESTS, MEN GIVE NO SIGN
OF RECOGNITION
DELAY ASKED BY COUNSEL
CASES OF BOTH SET FOR FEB. %
OVER PROTEST THAT MORE
TIME is NEEDED

st. Paul, Feb. 21.-Walter ]. Smith
and Robert C. Pickit accused of com
plicity in outstanding Of state trust
funds, appeared for trial today before
Judge F. N. Dickson in Ramsey coun
ty district court. ~
Their cases were reset for Feb. %
although a plea was made for delay
by Thomas R. Kane, attorney fol
Smith, on the ground that his client
is not in physical condition to stanc
the strain of trial.
1--WE will set the cases for Feb. %, ,
said Judge Dickson, "and at that time
you may move further continuance
but you must give the county attor,
hey notice of such motion so he car
make any investigation he desires"
Mr.. Kane asked County Attorney R
D. O'Brien to specify on which of the
three grand larceny indictments Mr.
Smith would be tried first. Mr.
O'Brien said he would move first in
the "$18,OOO case," the one which first
came to the notice of the state off,
Gals. ;@6
Smith and Pickit were in sight of
each other for the first time since
their arrest, but neither gave any sign
of recognition.
- The two cases against Pickit also
were reset for Feb. %, but following
the Smith case. Pickit is expected to
be the states chief witness against
the former state treasurer.
Mr.. Smith stepped briskly to the
bar when his case was called Mr.
Kane, speaking for him, said he had
no wish to change the former plea OF
not guilty Mr.. O'Brien then moved
for continuance of one week.
Mr.. Kane urged that the case be
deferred until March IA at least, or
account of his clients physical condi-
ton, and some cases in which Mr.
Kane must appear in Minneapolis, be.
ginning Thursday. He said that nc
interests would seem to be jeopardiz.

all, was proud of him. Six years ago
he was elected state treasurer.
The wife's pride and alteration in
creased. She thought she had just
about the best husband in the state
of Minnesota.
She still thinks so, she insisted
today, despite the storm of trouble
that broke last week out of SEEM
ingly blue sky.
81 am stunned" said the wife today
in the handsomely furnished Smith
home at 1912 Lincoln avenue, St.
Paul, "but my faith in Walter is un-
shaken.
eff any of these dreadful charges
against him are true in any way
know that Walter did the things un-
consciously-that he is as innocent
of deliberate wrongdoing as a mere
child.
,, eff public opinion should turn
against him, if the court fails to see
that he is innocent of deliberate
crime, I will tell he court and the
people of the state Of the true man
myself"
Mrs. Smith, a tall, handsome, au-
burn haired woman, turned to stroke
the hand of her Is year old daughter,
Marcella, who prays daily for her
fathers acquittal. The wife is in
constant touch with her husbands
legal advisers and thinks of nothing
save the case.
There is no need to ask her wheth-
er she is going to stand by her :hus-
band.
"The intoxicating success of the
self-made man." as Mrs. Smith calls
it, was responsible for any unconsci-
Gus misstep her husband may have
taken, she said today.
"Can't the people see," she demand
ed, "that my husband could not have
risen in the public trust and confid-
dence as he did if he hadn't had hon
esty and faith in himself? Iwish the
public would Judge him sympathetic
cally. The man in him really deserves
it." ~.
And Mrs. Smith choked back the
tears and smiled bravely as the visitor
left.

ed by the delay.
81 can see no reason for changing
the date" was the county attorneys
only reply.
Mr.. Kane made no further move to-
day, but says that when the cases are
reached for trial he will move for dis
missal of the indictments on the
ground that no public offense was
committed, as the shortage all hac
been made good before the lndict-
ments were found.
AS soon as the Smith cases hac
been disposed of for the day, the two
forgery cases against Pickit were cal
led. Pickit stepped to the bar with
Stan J. Donnelly, his attorney. Coun-
ty Attorney O'Brien moved continu-
ance until Feb. %. every we'll" said
Mr.. Donnelly, and the two left the
courtroom.
Mr.. Smith returned to the Gatlin
institute, Minneapolis, after the hear

Wife's Faith is mistaken

says, to tell judge, jury AMI pubic
of "the true man as he really is"
Mrs. Walter ]. Smith, wife of the in
dicted former state treasurer of Min
nesota, declares that if permitted she
would gladly take the witness stand
in his defense.
1t was the first time Mrs. Smith
had allowed an interview since the
disclosure of irregularities in the
state treasurer's office that led to her
husbands indictment.
Pride showed in her eyes as she
told of her husbands career-how
he had worked his way through
school, and become mayor of the Iron
range town in which he lived and
finally had risen to the office of state
treasurer.
Pride gave way to threatened tears
when the story reached its climax
the storm of trouble that has descend
ed upon the family.
1t was IS years ago, when she was
just out of a convent school, that
she first met Smith. He was hard
working ambitious youth who had
been left an orphan when II years
old and had worked his way through
the high school and later through a
business college. ~4.
Mrs. Smith was then Lillian Mac
lines, daughter Of Neil Machines, a
former representative in the state
legislature. When Smith sought her
hand in marriage she accepted him.
They, had made their home in Eve
leth on the Iron range. Hard work
and ambition combined to make Smith
mayor of the town. Everybody liked
him. Everybody, his wife most of

ADVICE TO POULTRY RAIsERs
Member of High School Animal Hus-
bandry Class Writes An In
teresting Essay

Poultry raisers in this vicinity will
be interested in the following essay
entitled, Poultry Men, Look to Your
Breeding Pens," as written by Solo
mon Dewey Of the animal husbandry
class of the Sank Centre high school
which is taught by Prof. O. E. Stephl:
Poultry men, look to your breed
ing pens"-this call is going all over
the country now, for the breed season
is fast drawing near. y.
"Now is the time to go out to the
hen-house and select the best stock
that you have. You can easily tell if
you have been trap-nesting. All you
have to do is to look at the egg record
Of each hen and take those laying the
highest number of eggs. But, if you
have not been trap-nesting look at the
daily records and see if they were
laying during the winter months, if
so, go through the hen-house some
time during the night and take each
hen up in your hands and feel for
their Pelvic bones. They are just be-
low the tail. If you can get three fin
gers between them they are good lay
ers, because as the eggs are laid their
fans grow further apart and nine
times out of ten you wall have hens
that lay a fair amount Of eggs. !.

WHY PRINCE ALBERT WINS
Patented Process Is Responsible for
Its International Popularity.

! Smokers so much appreciate the
flavor and GOODNESS, and aroma of
Prince Albert pipe and cigarette
tobacco that they often marvel that
this one brand could be SO different
from all others.
The answer to this question is to
be found on the reverse side Of every
Prince Albert package, where you
will read: process Patented July 30,
1907" That tells. the whole story.
Prince Albert is made by a patented
process that cuts out the bite and
parch, which makes the tobacco SO
mighty agreeable and satisfying to
men of every taste of every civilized
nation on the globe.
Smokers should realize that this
patented process cost three years con-
tinuous work and study and fortune
n money to perfect. But the result
has proven to be worth all that was ex-
pended upon it, because it has set free
men believed they never could ENJOY
a pipe or a makin's cigarette. =.
Prince Albert makes it possible fol
every man to smoke a pipe or to roll
his own cigarettes. And, no matter
how tender the tongue, Prince Albert
cannot bite or parch. That is cutsoat
by the patented process, leaving fol
the smoker only the5sjoys of the fra
grant tobacco. Il
It is fact that since Prince Albert
arrived, just about six years ago
it has made three men smoke pipes
where one smoked a pipe before!
