" Doings at the Court House. Anton Nelson, whose name is in Duluth, is now under the care of the county physician as a result of an over-indulgence in the cup that both cheers and ineberates, and which has caused his mind to be considerably deranged. Nelson was taken into custody yesterday by the city police and later in the day was brought before Judge of Probate Clark to be examined as to his san- ity. The hearing was adjourned until Nov.15, and Nelson was turned over to the county physician, who will endeavor to straighten him out sufficiently to permit of a thorough examination as to the condition of his mind. John Lemloh, who lives near Mud Lake, made a final proof on his| homestead yesterday before Clerk of Court Rhoda. The clerk of court yesterday issued a marriage license to William McClaughlin of this county to marry Miss Annie Nichol of Cook county, Illinois. Smallpox Near Tenstrike. Doctor Blakeslee, acting county physician, states that there are four cases of smallpox at a logging camp one mile east of Tenstrike. The doctor spent last night at Tenstrike, where he took adequate Pprecautions to prevent the spreading of the smallpox. He found that Walter May, and three children, who recently came from Laporte and were the only occupants of the logging camp, were aflicted with smallpox. They evidently contracted the disease at Laporte. Henry Stechman, president of the village council of Tenstrike, made formal application to the County authorities at Bemidji for the services of the county physician in caring for the smallpox cases. As prompt meas- ures were taken by the physician, therewill be no chance for the disease spreading. Special Meeting. A special meeting of the Modern Brotherhood will be held in the L 0. O.

ATTRACTS WIDE ATTENTION Former Italian Cabinet Officer on Trial. Rome, Nov. 6.—The trial of Signor Nunzio Nasi, former minister of public instruction, who is charged with the falsification of documents and defraud- Ing the state treasury out of several million lire, has begun before the sen- ate, constituted as a high court of Justice. Michael Lombardo, who was under secretary of finance, was placed on trial with Nasi charged with im- plication in the frauds. The charges against Nasi and Lom- bardo have caused considerable ex- citement throughout Italy, this being the first case of the impeachment of an Italian minister and also because the two defendants, who were born in Sicily, maintain their innocence and claim that they are being subjected to political persecution, the result be- .| ing that serious disorders on the part of Slcilians are threatened if Nasi and Lombardo are convicted. The feeling for and against the ac- cused has been very great from the time their prosecution was determined upon and the authorities allowed them to be imprisoned in their own homes Instead of sending them to jail. This, however, did not prevent serious riot- ing in Sfelly in the prisoners’ favor, ag well as at Reggio di Calabria. At one time the agitation in Sicily was so intense that 300 marines were landed at Messina from the battleship Sar- degna in order to maintain order and artillery was posted in the streets of Palermo. GREAT INCREASE IN CRIME Demand for Restoration of Death Pen- alty in France. Paris, Nov. 6.—The increase of crime in France has aroused a popular demand for the restoration of the doath penalty, which has been prac- tlcally abolished by the systematic commutation of the sentences of crim- Inals condemned to death. The gov- ernment desires to formally abolish capital punishment and has been com- muting death sentences to imprison- ment at hard labor for life. During the present session of parliament it was the intention of the ministry to secure the adoption of a measure for- mally doing away with the executions of criminals, but recently juries throughout the country have recom- mended having recourse to the guillo- tine as being the only means of stop- ping the atrocious murders which are of dally occurrence in Paris and in the provinces. A popular vote taken by a local newspaper has resulted in 1,088,656 persons pronouncing in favor of restor- ing - capital punishment, while 328,692 opposed it. Sult to Recover $2,500,000.

Tariffs in compliance with these statutes have been in effect for | four months and a comparison with the receipts for the same months of last year show a loss of over $100,00t on the Alton, “The increased number of passen- gers for the long haul has been sub- stantial,” said Mr. Charlton, “but there has been a net loss of half a cent a mile on every ticket, for under the 3-cent fare the long haul averaged about 2% cents a mile. On short haul tickets there have been large sales, but here the road has lost one-third of what would ha n made uz the 3-cent fare. “At only a few ticket offices has the Alton taken ney than it took for the co nding pericd last year.
