CHARTER COMMIS.
sion IS SELECTED
DISTRICT COURT NAMES MEN TO
DRAFT NEW CHARTER FOR
SAUK CENTRE.
WILL BEGIN WORK AT ONCE
MEETING is CALLED FOR NEXT
MONDAY EVENING TO PER-
Feet ORGANIZATION.

By order of Judges Roeser, Nye and
Parsons OF. the Seventh judicial dis
trlct, the charter cOmmlssl of free
holders selected to frame a new cnar-
ter for the city of Sauk Centre has
been given legal life. All that re-
mains is for the members to qualify
by taking oath and perfect their own
organization before getting down to
work. This will be done at meeting
to be held in the Commercial CLUB
rooms next Monday night at o'clock,
for which a call has been issued by
Chairman John N. McGibbon. The
other members of the commission are
L. L. Kells, M. C Kelsey, J. F. Coop
er, V. G. Wedge, c. d. Marshall, Geo.
4. Borgmann, B. F. Dubois, w. O. P.
Hilsdale, M. d. Aygarn, James Nc
Cracken, S. C. Bjone, L. w. Gingery,
Cary Diehl and F. E. Dodge.
1t is the desire of the commission
members to get to work as soon as
possible and perform the bulk of the
big task before the hot weather sets
in. No conjecture is made how long
time will elapse before a finished
draft can be presented to the people
but it will take several months at the
least. The commission is made up of
workers" and the early date set for
organization indicates they are anx-
ious to get into action. Copies of
charters of several smaller cities are
already at hand and more will be Sc
cured. The state university also has
promised to send up an expert on
charters to consult with the commits
sioners.
City officials have long felt the need
of new charter as the old one has
become obsolete in many directions
and is insufficient in many other ways
because of the growth of the city. The
members of the commission do not
receive any salary.

COURT LENIENT WITH THIEF
ray-Haired Wanderer RObs Drink
ing Companion But Escapes
Jail Sentence.

Morey Robinson, II years of age,
a gray-haired wanderer who chit" the
city about three weeks ago and made
a living by doing odd jobs about town,
may be thankful to Municipal Judge
Diehl that he is not serving a Jail
sentence for robbery. Robinson plead
ed guilty to taking $500 from the per-
son of Jacob Krankis, another wander
er, with whom he had been drinking
Monday night and Tuesday morning.
The robbery occurred, in saloon
Tuesday morning and the police had
their man a few hours later. The
complaining witness was too befud-
died in mind to recall any of the facts
but other witnesses to the robbery
were prepared to testify at the hear
ing in the afternoon. Robinson saved
them the trouble by pleading guilty
and throwing himself on the mercy Of
the court, claiming the robbery was
the result of heavy drinking. He was
allowed to go on the repayment to
Krankis of the $500 and the payment
of So court costs. 1t is understood
both Johnson and Krankis have left
the city.
Wednesday morning Deputy Game
Warden Joe Miller arrested H. P.
Brown, also a wanderer, for fishing
with two set lines in the river below
the dam. Brown pleaded guilty and
will serve sentence of Is days in the
county Jail.
