JURY AGQUITS BIG DOG Charged With having Driven Cow into Barbed Wire Fence. Spokane, Wash., Sept. 30—"'Spot,” a f)ig brown bird-dog owned by Robert Roddan, accused of driving “Beth,” a cow, belonging to Byron A. Wilson, into a batbed wire fence and causing its death, was acquitted by a jury in the Spokane county superior court, where Judge William A. Huneke presided. The jurors were out eight min- utés. The dog was a witness in its own behalf over the objections of John M. Gleeson, council for Wilson, and won instant favor by its be- havior. When called °‘Spot” ad- vanced to the jury box and extended its paws to each of the 12 jurors in turn and barked playfully until taken out of the court by the bailiff. As there were no eye-witnesses and the evidence was purely circum- stantial, as Judge Huneke said in his charge, the jury gave “"Spot” the benefit of the doubt and returned a verdict of “not guilty.” Wilson sought $75 damages. Germain Is Coming. The most important event of the local theatrical season is scheduled for next Friday night at the Armory | theatre. Germain will be seen at that time with his entire magical production, with the same sumptu- ous stage settings, large company and delightful performance in magic conjuring, spirit manifestations, mind reading and Hindoo illusions, just as seen iu his year’s engagement at St. George’s Hall, London. Ger- main comes direct from that notable engagement and is without doubt ‘the most talked of and best known magician of the present day. Be- midji can be congratulated that his booking management saw fit to stop off here on the way from Duluth to Grand Forks as Germain is the master of all in this very pleasiog line of entertainment and it is an opportunity well worth seeing what is possible for mere man to do. The press agent was in this office yester- | day and left reading matter which will appear in these columns from time to time and which 1s worth your attention. Watch for it. Who He Was. The *cub™ reporter is the greenest reporter on the staff of a newspaper. When anything particularly stupid happens on the paper he is the one first to be accused, and he is usually rightly accused. The only salvation for him is to improve, which he does in nine cases out of a dozen. The Bos- ton Journal told recently of an amus- ing *“‘break™ of a wholly innocent na- ture which a certain cub made. The reporter had been sent to a sub- urb to report a sermon. He arrived late, near the close of the service and took a seat mear the door. When the last hymn was over he asked his neigh- bor, an elderly gentleman: “What was the text of the sermon?”’ **Who art thou? " answered the parishioner. “Boston reporter,” replied the other. The man smiled. Subsequently he told the preacher. who nest Sunday told the congregation—at the cub's ex- pense. Jewelry Store Romances. A wedding ring whose scratched and dulled surface bespoke years of hard service at washtub and dishpan lay on the jeweler's work table. “Why has it been laid up for re- pairs?” a visitor asked. *Has marriage proved a failure?” “On the contrary, it has turned out a great success, and the ring has been brought back to bear witness,” said the jeweler. “See this new inscrip- tion, ‘Ten years of fidelity and love.' That sounds pretty good, doesn’t it? No failure there. Five or ten years from now, if they are both alive, some- body will probably add another post- script, and so on at regular intervals to the end of the chapter. Jewelers meet more of these little romances than the unseutimental person would dream of.”—New York Sun. He Wasn’t It. “My dear Miss Billmore,” sadly ‘wrote young Hankinson, *I return herewith your kind note in which you accept my offer of marriage. You will observe that it begins ‘Dear George.’ I do not know who George is, but my name, as you know, is William.”—Chi- cago Tribune. Rivals. She—John is a very considerate sort of fellow. isn’t he? He (the rival)— Oh. yes. very! He has that keen tact and loving sympathy which a chauf- feur displays toward a helpless crip- ple.—Life. DULUTH PAPER PRAISES BERG Declare He is Distinguished Friend of Northern Minnesota. The Duluth Evening Herald says: | Mr. Berz wes a candidate for " the Republican -~omination for state senator from the Sixty-first district, his successful opponent at the pri- maries being the incumbent, A. L. Hanson of Ada. The fight wasa | strenuous one, notable for the resort to what has been declared to be un- fair and discreditable methods by adherents to Senator Hanson. Mr. Berg is widely and favorably! nesota, so eminently qualified to do this part of the state good in the legislature, that real regret is ex- pressed in many quarters over his defeat. However, Mr. Berg accepts the fortunes of political war smil- ingly and refuses to be downcast. New-Gash-Want-Rats koown as a friend of Northen Miz-|; evenings and go to school. In- quire at M. & I.
