Under the state law the treasurer
is allowed to draw from other state
funds temporarily to make good such

Where the Wind Blows and the Fakir
Fakes, to Lose Money in an Auction
ShopMayor May Revoke Dealer's
'License. V^.
Instructions were issued by Mayor
D. P. Jones .today to Samuel Halperin,
the auctioneer and jeweler at 115 Wash
ington avenue S, to keep his shop closed
until further notice. The mayor wants
to investigate Mr. Halperin's business
methods a little more closely, and if
his record shows up too strong, his
auctioneer's license will be revoked.
will be minus the fair-week busi
ness at the best.
The administration is somewhat sur
prised that it is compelled to discipline
the auction shops again. When Mayor
Jones took charge of the police de
partment, one of nis first moves was
order a campaign against the fake
auction houses, and as the result, two or
three were closed entirely and others
were compelled to confine themselves
to legitimate business.
The complaint which prompted sum
mary action was brought in by a Chi
cago oy who was on his way to the
harvest fields in North Dakota.
had been lured into a watch deal in
which he was badly worsted. To have
a Chicago boy as sucker for a watch
game was too much for the mayor's
sense of humor, and he could not re
frain from having some fun at the
young man's expense.
The victim was thoroly ashamed that
he should "bite" on a "skin game"
with all the veracity of a native of Hay
creek, after spending his life in the
city whe re the fakir's game is stronger
than anywhere else in the world.
admitted that he was properly a butt
for ridicule, and expressed the hope
that his friends and relatives in Chi
cago would forgive him if th ey ever
heard how he was taken in.
COST OF GENSDS WILL
EXGEED APPROPRIATION
There will be a deficit of about $5,000
at the end of the year in the fu'n'd for
the payment of the cost of taking the
state census. The appropriation for
the purpose was $65,000. The total
expense will run up to $70,000.
Peter E Hanson, secretary of state
Governor J. A. Johnson and S. G. Iyer
son, state auditor, have held a meeting
to discuss the best means of getti ng the
additional money needed. I is proba
ble it will be taken from the state
revenue fund, and the next legislature
asked to make the shortage good with
an extra appropriation.
PELL FROM A STREETCAR

Volney P. Roberts, Minneapolis age nt

vere fracture of ,the skull, but is much
improved today, and it is believed he
will live. is at the Stillwater city
hospital.
Mr. Roberts was .standing on the
front platform of the car when it
rounded the surve at a rapid rate. The
motorman says that he warned the
passenger to "hang on" before the
car arrived at the curve. Roberts lost
his balance and pitched head long onto
the pavement.
WAS THE KEYSTONE
Not the Trident Meter Which the City
Bought Recently.
I was stated in The Journal
recently that the city had purchased
5.0Q0 Trident water meters for $6.75
each, while the price which had been
quoted at Dayto n, Ohio, was $5.85.
The information on which the state
ment was based was incorrect. I was
the Keysto ne meter in which the wa
terworks committee invested so heavi
ly, and it was the Pittsburg Meter com
E'any which made the $5.85 price at
ayton The Neptune Meter company,
which controls the Trident meter, says
that it has never offered to sell meters
to Minneapolis for $6.75 nor sold a ny
to Dayton for $5.85.

liam WaUace. f'^16 i
Deputies in the sheriff's office and
others connected with the case of John
Devine, locked" up in the county jail
charged with murdering William Wal
lace on a Soo train, are convinced that
he has a family somewhere that he is
shielding from the disgrace he has
brought upon himself.
A the coroner's inquest at the
morguo today the conductor of the
train on which the murder was com
mitted said that when he first ques
tioned Devine he said,that has name
was John Mood. The man was dazed
when he made this -first answer, and
then, as tho suddenly remembering
something he cried out:
"Oh, no it isn't that. Devine is
my nameJohn Devine."
Devine from that time on1
took every
opportunity to tell those around him
that his name was not Mood and that
he had no home. still sticks to'h is
story, and says he has never had a fam
ily and has been a wanderer for sev
eral years. His continued efforts ha ve
made the deputies suspicious, and they
will try to overcome his, family pride
and get him to tell 'where his relatives
are that they may help him thru his
trouble. The police department will
aid. the sheriff's office in this attempt.
The coroner's jury, after a shoTt sit
ting brought a verdict that William
Wallace came to his death as a result
of a knife wound inflicted by John De
vine.
Devine says he would rather hang
than to go thru life.with the dead
man's spirit haunting him.
