CASE HELDl'XDEK ADVISEMENT
Accused Wroto Letters Revolting lnlhelr
Ohscenlty-Statcmcnt of the Case Made
by Attorney Allen-Other Cases
llenrd In United States Court.
Mrs. Nell Frlnk, of Montrose, was
called for trial before Judge Hudlng-
ton In the United States district court
yesterday afternoon on a charge of
sending obscene letters through the
malls. Mrs. Frlnk is short, somewhat
stout and is verging on 40. Her hus
band, a bluff, hearty looking personage,
sat beside her In court. Attorney H. C
Reynolds, of this city, and Attorney
G. P. Little, of Montrose, appeared for
Mis. Frlnk, and after the case had been
formally called to the attention of the
courts, Mr. Heynolds arose and said
that his client would enter a plea of
utility und on account of her mental
ccndltlon and previous good character
they would ask the court to be merci
ful and suspend sentence.
lr. Charles Decker, of Montrose, was
r tlii'd to testify to Mrs. Frlnk's menial
condition. He had been her physician
for over twenty years and said that
luting that time she hud been a great
mfferer from troubles pecullur to her
s.x which produced hysteria and unbal
anced her mind during the duration of
these attacks. When hysterical he had
seen her expose her person at the win
d nvs of her home and use language
that was obscene. He was of the opin
ion that confinement in prison now
would produce either complete Insanity
or s-k-luiess that would prove fatal.
Or. Jackson's Opinion.
Dr. P. P. Jackson, of llinghamton, X.
Y next went on the stnnd with a pur
ple necktie and thirty years' experience
as a physician und surgeon. It was
soon evIJetit that notwithstanding the
purple scurf the doctor is a man of
udgment and possesses u thorough
knowledge of his chosen profession.
He examined Mrs. Frlnk, he said, as to
her mental condition and was led to
the conclusion that while she may huve
Illusions and temporary aberration of
mind, due to hor physical condition, he
did not tnink she was insane. A lack
of moral sensibility such as was shuwn
y Mrs. Kiitik lit the letters, might be
some evIdeiicL of Insanity though not
of a conclusive character. A sane per
SlIi could have that lack of moral feel
ing.
S. 1. I.oomls. who has known Mrs.
Frlck for years, testified to her good
character and to the fact that he had
on several occasions been called to
hold her when she was suffering from
hysterical fits. Attorney Heynolds said
that they had a number of other char
acter witnesses to call, but would re
frain from doing so.
Attorney M. S. Allen, of Montrose,
private counsel for Mrs. Minnie Stod
dard, the complainant in the case, at
the request of District Attorney Harry
Hall, then stepped before the court and
outlined the circumstances and condl
tlon of affairs that led to the arrest of
Mrs. Frlnk.
Attorney Allen's Story.
"During last November," said Mr.
Allen, "letters of a very obscene char
acter were received by residents of
Montrose. In December John Sweet
and Miss Messenger, also residents of
that town, received letters that were
vile in the extreme, which led to an In
vestigation as to the source they came
from. Before Mr. Sweet received the
letter. Mrs. Frlnk told him he was to
receive such an e.olstle and that he
could blame Mrs. Minnie Stoddard for
It. Mrs. Frlnk declared that In vain
she had endeavored to prevent the let
ters from being sent. After the letter
was received, Mrs. Stoddard was ac
quainted with the statement made by
Mrs. Frlnk and decided that the mat
ter should be Investigated that she
might be set right In the eyes of the
community.
"She went to Mrs. Frink's house,
obtained a specimen of the hitter's
handwriting, and comparison showed
that it was Identical with the hand In
which the obscene letters were writ
ten. Mrs. Stoddard's next move Was
to pay another visit to Mrs. Frlnk und
charge her with sending the letters.
She further stated thut if Mrs. Frlnk
did not tell the truth about the matter
her husband would be acquainted with
the details of the case. Mrs. Frlnk
thereupon wrote a confession admit
ting that she wrote the letters, und
then the case was allowed to rest until
some time later, when Mrs. Frlnk again
began to accuse Mrs. Stoddard of writ
ing the letters. That lady then entered
complaint and had Mrs. Frlnk arrest
ed for violating the laws of the United
States."
llolJ the Case tnder Advisement.
After listening to Mr. Allen's state
ment Judge Hufllngton said that he
would hold the ens under advisement
for a f-w days. He was not sure that
Mrs. Frlnk was an irresponsible agent
when she wrote tho letterH. but If she
was It was his opinion that she should
be placed where she would not have mi
opportunity to perpetrate blmllar let
ters.
John Zimmerman, a native of Juniata
county, was tried for having In his
possession counterfeit half dollar coins,
and appliances which It Is alleged he
had for the purpose of making spurious
coin. Several persons were called to
sustain the contention of the govern
ment, and then Zimmerman went to tho
stand to testfy In his own behalf. He
denied that he hud any appliances for
making counterfeit money, and said
that he was an Innocent holder of the
spurious coin found in his possession
He was defended by Attorney D. P.
Itcplogle and Assistant District Attor
ney Griffiths conducted the case for the
United States. At 2.4D the Jury retired

dey county, was tried on two Indict
ments charging him with passing
counterfeit money. He was repre
sented by Attorney D. P, Iteplogle, of
this city. There was evidence given
on the part of the government showing
that In August, 1H94, Torrey passed u
counterfeit dcdlar aud half dollar. He
ulleged that ho did not know the coin
was bad and the Jury believed him.
Verdicts of not guilty were returned
In both rases. In discharging the ac
cused Judge Huflllngton said that he
was not entirely satisfied of the Inno
cence of Torrcy In the mutter of pass
ing the coin, knowing It to be bad
and advised him not to again get Into
thut court or he Would regret It.

of Imrses, a wagon, double harness
blankets, etc., all of the value of $le0.

Wunds, who did not pay his debts, and i
the properly was sold at sheriff's exe
cution. Maxwell and others bought In
the properly and Jones Is suing them

It Is a safe estimate that 15 per cent,
of the Young Men's Christian associa
tion members, especially the younger
element, are furnished their member
ship by parents who are In well-to-do
circumstances. For $7 per year these
boys ure given privileges which cost
the association about $1J, the differ
ence being contributed by charitable
men und women. Bused upon this con
dition It does not seem unreasonable to
suggest that the parents referred to
should subscribe to the present fund.
Wr.ut Money Is Needed l or.
The appeal, It should be remembered,
Is not made for money to Increase the
scope or work of the association. The
Finishing and Furnishing Fund will be
used for no other purpose than is indi
cated by those words.
If you are a friend of the association,
help It along.
