Michaud's Leader Patent Flour, pe>r eaek, only $2.25 Pine uncolored Ja I was born and raised. I made money in the real estate business, and in 1891 became a candidate for the state sen ate on the Independent Americans' Citi zenship ticket. My foremost opponents were John F. O'Malley, a brother of the Aid. O'Malley who was tried for Colliander's murder and who at: that time was a candidate for re-elec tion, and G. D. Anthony, the Republi can nomiinee, who was afterwards elected. It was a bitter campaign, and I had already had trouble, as my oppo nents had sought to have me removed from the ticket because I was then only twenty-one years old, and according to the state law ineligible to a seat in the senate. My name went before the peo ple, however, as it was decided that if I should be elected the proper place for me to be disqualified was be fore the legislature. On Che night Colliander was mur dered I had been with him the greater part of the evening. We were a short distance from the booth, when the sounds of shots were heard, and we hurried to the place to ascertain their cause. As we entered the door Colli ander received the wound from which he died. He was my friend, and when the state, with the assistance of In spector Schaaok, undertook to fix the responsibility of nis death, I told whom I had seen in the election booth doing the shooting and assisted the authorities in every possible manner, by giving my testimony at the trial, which was delayed over two years, and as you know resulted in the acquittal of both Santry and O'Malley. "During the trial of Aid. O'Malley I was constantly under the protection of a detective furnished by State's Attor ney Dineen, but greatly feared for my life, as I received a number of threat ening letters, and was once kidnepped by friends of the men on trial. I was taken to a room in a hotel and prom ised $1,000 if I would deny that I had seen Santry and Aid. O'Malley in the booth when Colliander was killed, and told if I refused I would be knocked on the head and thrown into the Chi cago river. My captors gave me twen ty-four hours to decide, but in the meantime I made my escape. "During the latter part of the trial, while I was going home one night, a big rock was thrown at my head as I passed a crowd of O'Malley's sympa thizers. I carried a revolver in my pocket which had been given me by Stae's Attorney Dineen. Puling the weapon, I turned upon the crowd and fired. I heard a cry of pain, and thought I had killed some one. Almost beside myself with fear, I went at once to the depot and bought a ticket to St. Paul. I have a brother-in-law here, Albert Ohmon, who lives at 854 York street. I stayed with him a week, and then went to the home of an aunt on a farm near Tyler. Here I remained in seclusion under the name of William F. Anderson until last Friday, when I received a letter from my wife in Chi cago, to whom I was married shortly after my political defeat, that our two year-old son was dangerously ill. I wanted to see my boy, and that ac counts for my being here In jaiL "I had no money, having lost every thing I had in the senatorial race and subsequent efforts for nomination for North town clerk, assessor and other political offices, but I was . determined to see my boy before he died, and, in my desperation, planned to raise money by means of forged checks. I reached St. Paul Saturday and passed one check at the ticket office, and, while under the influence of liquor, at tempted to pass another at the saloon where I was arrested." Among the papers which were found upon Sandberg was a notary public's commission signed by ex-Gov. Altgeld, and Secretary Hinrichsen, of Illinois, and a number of letters from his wife. A check for $15 was also found in a letter which Sandberg received at the general delivery window of the local postoffice yesterday morning under the name of William F. Anderson. He took the proprietor of the American hotel, where he was stopping, to the post office with him and showed him the check as coming from his friends. Tihe letter was postmarked Tyler, Minn., and Sandberg last night admitted to Chief Schweitzer that he had forged the enclosed check and mailed the let ter to himself before leaving Tyler. His object In taking the hotel man with him Is thought by the police to have been the preliminaries of a plan to get the forged paper cashed. This Sand berg denies, but explains the presence of so many checks in his pos session by claiming that he simply had them to show in case his identity was questioned by any one upon whom he tried to pass the small checks. To tHE SAINT PA til, GLOBE; MONDAY, MAY 31, 1897, Chief Schweitzer Sandberg talked with out restraint or an effort to excuse his misdoings beyond the claim that he was driven to extremities an account of the desire to get home to his child. He admitted having passed forged checks in Chicago aggregating $30, but claimed the victims were friends who would not prosecute htm. He desired to telegraph to ex- State's Attorney Dineen and Police Inspector Schaack, who conducted the prosecution In the O'Malley case, but the request was de nied him until further investigation of his case today. The police are of the opinion that Sandberg Is not naturally criminal, and are Inclined to give some credence to his story. "NED" SOHBRS' FI'NEiHAL 1m Attended by a Concourse of Friend*. The funeral of Edmund T. Somers was held yesterday afternoon from his late residence, 480 State street. Rev. G. H. Gamble, of Hebron Baptist church, officiated, and the remains were interred at Oakland cemetery. Mr Somers has been a familiar figure on the West side for many years. Ha and his father have made their home at 430 State street for a long time. He was a quiet, unassuming gentleman whom everybody liked. Mr. Somers was born in Horsing, New York state, June, 17, 1850, and came with his par ents to St. Paul at the age of seven years, removing to the West side of the river in 1871, since which he has been identified with all the interests of the Sixth ward, being an active business man, and also prominent in social cir cles, few gatherings being considered complete without his presence. Mr. Somers, or Ned, as he was more fa miliarly known by his intimates, was a man of sterling integrity, and one whose judgment was considered valu able, and has been the counselor of many, while his considerateness and helpfulness have endeared him to a large circle of friends who will greatly miss him from his familiar walks. His brother W. A. Somers, and his aged father Edmund Somers, are his only immediate relatives in St. Paul. IS IT HIS BROTHER* John Dietrich, of Oom», Ha* His Cu riosity Aroused. Ten years ago Joseph Dietrich, who lived with his parents on a fa.iun near Dubuque, 10., left his home and started West, telling his parents that he was going to California to rn/ake his fortune as a miner. From that time no word has been received from him, although efforts have been mode to ascertain his whereabouts and get some trace of him. Yesterday his brther, John Dietrich, who owns a farm near Lake Como, read an item in a German pa- i per published in Chicago telling about j a miner named Joseph Dietrich, who had wiamdered into the town of Banner, Cail., in a starving and destitute condl tion', having been nearly a week with out food. The account stated that Diet rich started with two other men from Fiacho on a mining expedition, but be came separated from his companions and endured terrible suffering. John Dietrich called at police head quarters yesterday with a view of hav ing the authorities communicate with the police at Banner, Cal., for the pur pose of ascertaining if the person men tioned in the paper was his brother. FOUGHT IN THE STREET. "Buff" McMttnus and John McGrath Are Arrested. John McGrath and "Buff" McManus, the latter a local pugilist of some reputation, enjoyed the early part of last evening in each other's company, but shortly before midnight got into a difficulty at West Fourth and Franklin streets. They had started to adjust the matter according to Lon don prize ring rules when Officer Will iam Banker stopped the bout and or dered the men in different directions. When Officer Banker turned the cor ner both men rushed together again and renewed the interrupted fight. They managed to partially satisfy their pugnacity before Officer Banker returned and placed them under arrest on the charge of disorderly conduct, as was evidenced by two bloody faces and swollen eyes, which gave them a sanguinary appearance when taken to the central station, though neither of the men were badly hurt. They will be arraigned in the police court today. TAHi ROLLED ON HIM. Jerry Taylor Badly Hurt at Sand Creek Camp, Jeremiah Taylor, a laborer In the employ of O'Neill Bros., the lumber men, at Sauk Creek, on the Great Northern railroad, was brought to this city yesterday and taken to the city hospital suffering from injuries re ceived by being crushed by a falling log.

Kansas Man "Who Wouldn't Provide for His Children Arrested. KANSAS CITY, Mo., May 30.— The trial of John Rhodes for vagrancy in the police court this afternoon disclosed -the fact that he and his two little sons had been living in a big hollow log near the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul bridge since last March.

D ATTENDS PARK CICUItCII. "i i : ►« rl Military Spirit liuiylred the Servi ce* at That Temple of .'Worship Yesterday Morning. "On this day set apart by law to commemorate the deeds of the heroes of the Civil war," said "Rev. J. F. Stout at tfhe First M. E. church yester day morning, "it has seemed best to me to call attention to a theme appro priate to thfc time, the heroic dead as a company of martyrs, or attesting wit nesses to the truth, who encompass us on every hand to inspire In us a like courage for the performance of the duties devolving on us. By a study of Moses we may get at the character istics of the ideal martyr or hero. "The first feature is self-forgetful ness in the presence of public obliga tion. -Moses, 'when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter, choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season.' He recognized the obli gations growing out of his own nation ality. He was a Hebrew; his duty was to his own people, and their needs were great, while his call to be their helper was unmistakable and clear. On the other hand, his interest, according to the wisdom of the world, was opposed to his .duty,, and in presence of these facts he turned^ from self-interest and gave himself to Sis Ratrfotic work. Our heroes did the .same; their interests were at home. At the call of their peo ple, moved by the interests of their nation, they tore .themselves away from the relations of love and business profit and gave themselves to hardship, and suffering, and sickness, and death.with out complaint, and with such a fullness of sacrifice that the nation Is forever proud of her heroic sons. "Moses and those who wrought after him were moved and held by an in domitable courage, measured by the obstacles they met and the difficulties they overcame. Our heroes, too, were spurred and controlled by a courage than which the; world has furnished no better example, which is to be meas ured by tihe obstacles they met, the armies they opposed, the hunger and privations they suffered, and the des perate foes they overcame. . "The Hebrew heroes had a deeper inspiration, which made possible the self-denial and courage they showed; it was their faith which included the discerning of divine principles involved and confidence in Him who laid upon, them their burden of obligation. In this way they 'subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained prom ises, stopped the mouths of lions, quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to. f)jf ht the armies of the aliens.' They .became Hi this" man-; ncr the patterns' for heroes and the inspiration of all coming men, who, In their places, shall be called upon to endure hardness and win victories. If Mcses, and Joshua, and Gideon, and Barak, Samson, and Jephthah, and David, and the prophets, have availed to keep the fires of loyalty burning on Jewish altars, what shall we say of Washington, and Greene, and Lee, and Putnam, and Ethan Allen, and Grant, and Sherman, and Lincoln, and Sumner, besides the uncounted and un named multitudes who, moved by the same motives, gave themselves to the cause of the nation in the name of loyalty? Shall not this cloud of martyrs stir our hearts to the highest, holiest deeds and to the purest and most exalted loyalty? "There are perils today besetting us. growing out of sin which is always present. The questions of the war are not settled. The issues that underlie the perils of the past are ever present. Slavery as an institution is dead, but the spirit which for selfish interest would keep the helpless in next to beg gary and want is rampant, is a peril of today. Rebellion clad in gray and car rying a musket is overcome, but the spirit of disloyalty which arrays sec tions against sections for reasons that do not concern the whole state, Is abroad, and publishes its menaces week by week. The army of the con traband does not exist as such, but the army of the poor, degraded by organized vice, pauperized by the sa loon and brothel, and gambling den, are with us demanding not only pres ent bread, but the deliverance from the intolerance of immorality. The spirits of selfishness, cowardice and unfaith are abroad accomplishing their de stroying work, and there is a demand for every one who lives under the perils, and enjoys the blessings of the present, to heed the cloud of witnesses which encompass them and, in self forgetfulness and courage and faith, prove a present loyalty that shall prove that they of the present are the true sons of the heroes of the past." DM. IXGEIRSOLJ/S TRIBUTE. Would Pat "Old Glory" With the Sign oif the Cross. At the Park Congregational church yesterday morning Company D, First infantry, Minnesota national guard, attended services, as is their custom each year on Memorial Sabbath. The silk nags of the company were draped on each side of the pulpit and the stars and stripes adorned the pulpit itself. Dr. Ingersoll seemed Inspired with the spirit of the day and occa sion and delivered an eloquent dis course as to the duty of Americans in defending the priceless heritage of lib erty secured for us by our forefathers, and maintained by our fathers, whose deeds of valor in defense of the repub lic will ever live and ibe an incentive to loyalty and patriotism to the rls .ing generation. Dt. 'Ihgersoll would have the stars and jjtripes of Amer ica placed just beloW the white ban ner of the cross, no higher, no lower, an exalted position, indeed. The sol diers of ancient times were compared with the present* and- It was shown that the soldier of. t<»day had far more to hope for, and should have loftier aims and ambitions. With the dawn of the twentieth century an era of great possibilities an 4 much prosper ~ Ity would be entered upon, even greater than any preceding century, the speak er thought, and he was sure tlhat the United States of America, having ever received the special blessings of the Heavenly Father, ' would ever continue to watch over aria protect His chosen people. The music, both vocal and In strumental, was of special merit, and appropriate to the occasion. WAR IS PREFERRED Aa the Best Means to Irish Lib erty.

There upon the Crusaders Immediately chal leng«d their victorious brothers in arms to another debate of their awn choosing In the near future. The par ticipants were L.. McKeroan, T. J. Doyle, James Cormioan, Terence Naughton and others. "COURT WEEK" IN HBATEN. This la It According to the Adven tUtJU The inhabitants of the Adventist camp at Merriam Park yesterday wore cloaks and overcoats, and stoves were at a premium. However, the cold wave did not chill their fervor, and the va rious services occurred as usual, al though the attendance from the cities was not so large as it doubtless would have been had the weather been more favoraJble. However, quite a number of visitors were on the grounds dur ing the day. Very early in the morning the work of completing the preparation of the grounds for the big meeting to begin next Tuesday, which was laid aside at the beginning of the Sabbath at sunset on Friday evening, was re sumed. The usual devotional meetings were held at 8 o'clock, breakfast at 7, and family worship at 8, after Which the thud of the sledge and the rattle of hammers and saws indicated that the seating, of the big tent was being completed. The auditing committee resumed its labors, and the-book stand and grocery store were opened for business. At 9:30 the young people as sembled in their tent and were earn estly addressed by Elder Daniel Net tleton on the Importance of carefully improving the golden opportunities of youth. He portrayed eloquently the different results of earnestness and carelessness: in this matter. Elder H. F. Phelps, of St. Paul, oc cupied the pulpit at 11 o'clock. He took for his subject "God in Nature," and developed the Scriptural fact that God has spread abroad in the things of nature, in every object of the uni verse, from the smallest atom to the greatest world, not only the evidence* of His existence, but His attributes and characteristics as well. And especially is this true of man, "who was cre ated in the image and likeness of God," which image and likeness the terrible work of ages of sin has not been able to entirely obliterate, al though In many cases it has become sadly marred. He further declared that the plan of redemption unites God to all men. At 3 o'clock, Elder J. W. Inglson, of Minneapolis, occupied the pavilion pul pit, and delivered a practical discourse on repentance, conversion, forgiveness of sin, amd the various experiences that make up the Chrlstiam life. At the saimta hour the usual meeting was held in the Soamddnaviian tent for the benefit of the people who use that language. These meetings are conducted by El der A. J. Stone, of Illinois; H. R. John son, of Nebraska, and the Scandina vian ministers of the Minnesota con ference, of whom there are several. The children's meeting also occurs daily at this hour, amid is one of the most interesting services held on th*i grounds. A number of adults always cluster around the tent to witness the zeal and earnestness of the little ones in the gospel lessons taught them by their instructors. The last service of the day was held at 7:30, when Elder Nettleton completed the thrilling sermon on the judg ment, which he had begun on Saturday evening. After reading and making impressive comimients on the Scriptural passages that relate to the judgment, and the thoroughness with which the entire life of every individual, thoughts, words and actions, will be investigated and rewarded, he proceeded to show | that this searching investigation must, fn the very nature of the case, precede the coming of the Lord, when Judg ment will be executed, in the instanta neous resurrection of ' the righteous dead, the translation of the righteous living, and the destruction of the wicked. The startling idea was then advanced, fortified by Scriptural evi dence, that the present generation is living in the time of the judgment, in short, that this is "court week in ■heaven," and that the case of every soul will soon be decided for eternal weal or woe. The end of the calendar will soon be reached^ and there will be no appeal from the decisions of that Supreme Tribunal. He said: "The com plete records of our lives are there, in the books of heaven, written with un erring faithfulness and accuracy by the angels, who attend us continually and witness all our actions, and are the witnesses at the trial." That the judg ment is now in session, and the time when it begain was the next point miado. The angel said to Daniel: "Unto 2.300 days, then shall the sanctuary bo i cleansed," a day in symbolic prophecy always standing for a year. The aotigel also informed him, that the "going forth of a decree to restore and to build Jerusalem" would be the point from which to begin to count thes.3 years. This decree went forth in 457 B. C, and therefore the time ended in 1844. The cleansing of. the sanctuary was clearly shown to be the work of judgment, from a study of the sanctu ary of the old testament, which was shown to be typical of the true taber nacle in heaven, now being cleansed from the sins recorded there. He most solemnly declared the mnessage of Wil liam Miller and his co-laborers and fol lowers to be true: "Fear God and give glory to Him, for the hour of His judg ment is come."

A. tS VTGOROUa FASMIOCV, FAVORS A SINGIaB STANDAIUJ For Measuring the Morality of the Sexes That Society Xovr Discrim inate* Between. The somewhat unusual privilege of hearing 1 a woman address a meeting for men only was enjoyed by an au^ dience completely filling "the rooms of the Young Men's Christian association in Central hail, Sixth and Seventh streets, yesterday afternoon. - The speaker was Miss Jessie Ackerman, of Chicago, a traveling missionary labor- Ing in behalf at the National W. C. T. U., wsio has supported the reform movement in all parts of this country and in most of the cities of Europe. Miss Ackerman selected a text from the Bible upon which to address her audience, choosing the beatitude, "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God," and in a manner not lacking in force directed her address against the variance In the standards of morality, which, she said, society had established for men and women. It had come to be generally recog nized, the speaker said, that to be pure in heart was an attribute of women only, and such a conception of moral requisites In character had wrought much misery and sin. Men who had dissipated were welcomed to the social fold when their season of sowing wild oats had ended, but not so with women, who, by an unfortunate misstep, were thereafter ostracized and classed as outcasts. "Thou shalt not," declared Miss Ackerman, meant men as well as women. If this obligation were only recognized, a quarter of a million fallen woman, the speaker said, would today be the inmates of happy homes instead of on the road to de struction. As it was not recognized, and men were allowed every license In immorality, Miss Ackerman declared, it was time for the women of the world to force its recognition by demanding the same purity In men which men de manded in their wives. This the woman of the future would do, Miss Acker man asserted, and the conditions for which she hoped would come about when a Christian manhood prevailed. Miss Ackerman spoke in tine evening also at the First Baptist church. LEAD BOYS TO RUIX. Rev. S. G. Smith Says Juvenile Gam bling Exists Locally. Rev. S. G. Smith, of the People's church, delivered the second of a series of sermons on amusements last evening, taking for the subject of his talk "Games of Skill and Chance." In the course of his remarks the speaker said that man's struggle against na ture was a serious affair. He wanted more than he had, and, consequently, the more he wanted the harder he had to struggle. The question of amuse ments was largely a question of re sults. They exhibited the character of the man. Primitive games had many of the elements of the modern games. All athletic games and contests of skill and strength were old. In early history they were part of religious ceremonies, and the days devoted to the Grecian Olympian games were holy days. Those who contested were obliged to be of good character, and before any of the events were com menced the judges asked if there was aught against the character of any of the contestants. Such questions asked at the present day, the speaker said, would be apt to be rather painful and annoying to some of the men who took part in athletic sport. The -re ward for feats of strength and skill in the early days was but a simple wreath of wild olive leaves. It was a struggle in those days between men and not for things. Rome took up the games, but Instead of having the best of the citizens participate in them, adopted the merchant's style and hired persons to take part in the sport. Games of chess, checkers, cards and dice belonged to the older civilization, and 4,000 years ago the Egyptians played cards. It was claimed that games of skill were all right and games of chance were all wrong. Some claimed that chess and checkers were games of skill, but cards and dice were games of chance. There was no more harm in playing a game of cards than playing a game of checkers. The real objection to games of chance was not in the chance element, but that ?t gave an opportunity for gambling. Laws had been passed in all civilized countries against gambling, and it was right that they should be enforced. Horse racing was of itself a fine sport, and there was no reason why at fairs there should not be racing of homo bred horses driven by their owners. The sport had been spoiled by the betting ring, jockeys and the train of rowdies that went with it. Progres sive euchre was an idiotic form of gambling. Games were not the busi ness but the recreation of life. The basis of gambling was moral degen eracy. The moral law and the law of God was that men should earn what they received legitimately. A man who gambled was a thief at heart and an enemy of society. It made no difference whether tne stakes were for 25 oents a corner or for bric-a-brac. Day after day in this city there were resorts open for the purpose of gamb ling which were frequented by boys who had not reached their majority. They were not only wasting their hours and substance at the game, but also their manhood. GE«ML4X G. A. R.
