DISTRICT COURT ENDS

After trying three civil cases and one
criminal case, the jury cases to be tried
at the May term of District Court Of
Brown County were disposed OF and the
Court late Friday afternoon took a
recess until Monday morning at which
time the court cases were set for trial
at specified dates or in vacation on eight
days notice and thereupon the May
term of the District Court for Brown
County adjourned. Court had been in
session only week all told, and the jury
cases lasted only four days.
In the first case for jury trial, August
A. Petrich VS.. Edward F. Berkner, the
jury brot in a verdict in favor of the
plaintiff and against the defendant for
the sum Of $4,09604.
The next case to be tried was that of
B. F. Mowry VS.. Edward Blemke and in
this case the jury returned a verdict
in favor of the defendant, no cause Of
action. In the case of the State Of
Minnesota VS.. Alonzo R. Bird, the jury
brot in a verdict in favor OF the COM
planning witness to the effect that the
defendant is the father of her child and
he was forced to pay the costs of the
suit, amounting to $30,95 and will have
to support the child.
Carl F. Stucke who had been indicted
by the grand jury at the December term
of Court for non-support of his family
was tried at this term and after the
prosecution had submitted all the ev-
idence, the Court dismissed the proceed
ings on the ground that there was not
sufficient evidence to sustain the charge
of non-support. 1t appears from the
evidence that the defendant had sent
his wife 500 about week before she
started criminal proceedings against
him. In the meantime also she moved
away from Brown County and this
county was not the proper county in
which to bring the criminal prosecution.
Monday morning Judge Olson made
the following disposition of the court
cases:

TRYING To APPEAL
To WILSON'S VANITY
Count MoDtgelas Addresses Note
to President Asking Justice

Munich, Dec. 20 (By The Associated
Press. )--General Count Max Montge-
las, who was recalled from Switzer-
land to enter the Bavarian cabinet on
November p and who has been re-
ferred to by French newspapers as
the second Lichn oWskY" because Of
his revelations Of conditions prevail
ing in Germany early in the war, has
published an open letter to President
Wilson. 1t follows:
In these decisive weeks the eyes Of
all the world are upon you. Above
all, the eyes of the German people in
the present difficult crisis are watch
ing you. We do not beg, we do not
want forgiveness, but want justice.
We do not say Enthusiastically that one
of us is guiltier than the other. We
do not separate ourselves in these
days Of suffering from any of our
countrymen. high or low. We want to
bear in common a portion Of the
blame devolving upon our people in
this world catastrophe.
Each of us who knows your coun-
try knows we'll that proud, conscious
American nation beneath the Star
Spangled Banner and honors it. We
pect, Mr.. President, that you will, de-
spite all opposition, achieve success
with the principles you laid down. We
are building upon the words you spoke
at Washington grave when you said
that every arbitrary power, regardless
of what side it appears upon, must be
DESTROYED or condemned to impO-
tency. We are building upon the word
of impartial justice, which knows no
difference as to those to be judged.
We are confident that You want to
create q league of equality between
nations in which each people may
freely breathe and work and prosper
spiritually.
You know better than I what the
German spirit has given your great
people. You know the world can do
without this spirit less than ever after
it has been freed from the bonds of
militarism. If our expectations are
deceived, we shall not cease fighting
on for the attachments of better days.
Your message is hopeful, but we must
be afraid that not all the Allies will
listen to your words. You have
power, and you have a duty to per
form

SHOPLIFTER BLAMES
ILLNESS FOR WRONGS
And When Arrested Tries to Buy
Her Way to Freedom

"Sickly spells" in which she is
unconscious of what she is doing, are
attributed by Mrs Matilda Mits as
the cause of her downfall. Mrs. Smith
who is % years of age, was in court
this morning on a charge OF theft,
she having been caught in the act OF
shoplifting in Birnbaums store on
Main street yesterday afternoon. MIS-.
Mits nearly succeeded in getting
away with a lady's shirtWalst valued
at SIS, and a gentleman's shirt valued
at $3.50 A fine of 81 was imposed
by Judge Meskill.
Miss Abrams, clerk in the store,
kept close watch on Mrs M1ts yes
terday afternoon, when she saw the
latter enter and look at some shirt
waists which were lying on the coua-
ter She was suspicious of her be-
cause of some information which she
had been given. After waiting on an
other customer, Miss Abrams looked
and found one of the shirtwaists
gone. She then asked Mrs. Mits to
show her a bag which she was carry
ing. The bag. a large black one, was
clasped tightly and Mrs. Mits refused
to allow it to leave her hands, Miss
Abrams snatched the bag. and open
ing it found the shirtWaist and shirt.
She then looked at the shirtwaist
which Mrs Mits was wearing and
identified it as one which was stolen
from the store last summer. Mrs.
Mits admitted stealing 1t at that time
and also admitted shoplifting yes
terday.
Officer Axel Carlson made the ar
rest and while taking the woman to
the station was offered a bride to al
low her to go. Mrs Mits told Prose
cutor Klett a tale of her sickness
which affects her mind, and then
frankly admitted that she left home
yesterday with one intention, shop
lifting.

LIPTON'S CHALLENGE
HAS BEEN DECLINED
Since War Is Not Over and Wounded
Not All Homo, Race Is
Not Proper.

New York, Dec. 2O.--The New
York Yacht Club last night declined
Sir Thomas Lipton's challenge to
race for Americas Cup next Septem-
Der. With the war not yet officially
concluded and with wounded soldiers
daily arriving home, the New York
club in it's declination forwarded to
the Royal Ulster Yacht Club, states
that the time is not appropriate to
enga ge in such an international
sporting event.
The official answer was made public
as follows:
H. l.. Garrett,
Royal Ulster Yacht Club care of
Dunvilles, Belfast
The challenge, of which you notified
us by cable, for a series of races in
September, 1919, reached us yester-
day, December IS.
While we fully appreciate its cor
dial and friendly expressions we must
frankly say to you that the nem-
bers of the New York Yacht Club are
strongly of the opinion that, with
peace not yet concluded, with a long
list of casualties still to be reported,
with returning transports bringing
home our wounded, and with condi-
tons unsettled as they are, this is not
an appropriate or fitting time for us
to arrange for a purely sporting event
of such importance as a match for
the Americas Cup. Accordingly it
seems best that we suggest to you
that the challenge be withdrawn. If
at some future date, when there is
no question on eithe side as to the
propriety, you wish to challenge with
the Shamrock ". for race in 1920,
we shall eccept the challenge to be
defended by one Of the boats which
we built in 1914 for that purpose.
We trust you will accept this sug-
gestion in the spirit in which it is
given.

Secretary. New York Yacht Club
