Public Benefactor or Extortionist Case Withdrawn
A county attorney charged Freenwi Lane with extortion tied to a eastern liquor association. The complaint was withdrawn this morning and Lane’s bond exonerated after discovery showed him acting as a public benefactor authorized to negotiate with responsible dealers to curb illicit traffic. Lane cited a publication defining liquor laws and noted agents in the field to minimize infractions.

Butterflies Descend On Chicago Pullman Residence
A vast swarm of golden brown butterflies darkened the Pullman residence at Eighteenth street and Prairie avenue last evening. Thousands lingered in trees and along the avenue as far south as Twenty second street drawing crowds of spectators and children who captured many. Local speculation points to a strong east wind blowing the insects from across the lake, fatigue driving them inland toward Mont. Jol.
