BOARD FOUND A VICTIM ©\K SQIATTER HAS TO PAY t*ark ( ommissioners at Last Kind One Evicted Squatter Who Mast Pay Costa. A year ago last summer the park board tejected about half a hundred squatter families from park board property on the East Side flats. Moral suasion was in- \u25a0umcient with a score or so and 'the tooard officials had to call in the sheriff. A legal ejectment is expensive. It aver- aged about $20 to the family in this case, and the subsequent costs incident to get- ting judgment for costs brought the total up to about half as much more. The poik board had to give bonds for costs, and in due time it had to "pay the freight." Not • single one of the judgments for costs has ever been satisfied. Now, at last, however, the park board fcas found a victim. He is August Ander- «on, who was so unfortunate as to own a vacarr* lot in North Minneapolis. Recent- ly he sold the lot, but has never been able to give a clear title on account of the park board judgment against him. He ap- pealed to the board to give him a satisfac- tion of judgment. The matter was in- fve&tigated by a committee, which reported to the board advising that Anderson be Set off on payment of $19, the amount of che original judgment. The report was •.dopted. Commissioner Johnson alone pro- les-ting, and presumably the money will Ibe paid. It is predicted, however, that ithis will be the only money ever col- lected on this account. Mr. Johnson took the ground , that so Song as there was no possibility of ever (collecting a cent from any of the others, Bit -was en injustice to enforce payment in •febls'case.

HE IS RECOVERING RAPIDLY Alderman I'eter NeUun and S. Svren- moii Return, Bringing Tidings ol ihe Abitent Mayor. Alderman Peter Nelson and S. Swenson, a fellow eleventh warder, have returned after a two weeks" sojourn at West Ba- den, lnd. They report Mayor Ames as enjoying one of the most delightful ex- periences of his life and gaining in health and spirits every hour. The treatment is an arduous one, they say, but the doctor is coming up to ihe rack manfully, and up to the time of their departure he hadn't missed a stroke of the task set for him. One of the regular "stunts" is a three- mile brisk walk before breakfast, un- aided by the artificial inspiration of an "eye opener," and at various other times of the day the patient reels off more miles around the miniature race track and "puts down" a glass of the foul- smelling spring water every two laps. Ten days of this, it is claimed, will put the bloom of youth on the wrinkled vis- age of an octogenarian, and the eleventh ward pilgrims predict that the doctor will come back rejuvenated, with tire In his eye and ginger all through his sys- tem, and will set a most strenuous pace during the coming months. The doctor is very anxious, they say, that his whereabouts should be kept a secret from the Minneapolis community, and the last thing before they started for home he warned them to keep a pad- lock on their lips. Naturally they were surprised to get back and find that the secret was already out. The renovated mayor will return Friday. "NO FUSS OVAH MY 'MAINS" >liirsaifi Still's Request Just Before Her Death. The funeral of "Old Margaret" Stitt, colored, who died Sunday at the City hos- pital, was held yesterday from the resi- dence of W. T. Fraser, on Twenty-eighth Btreet "Old Margaret" had a host of friends among both races, and many of them attended the services conducted by ! Rev. Mr. Brooks, colored. The interment | was at Lekewood. Margaret was a very in- j dependent woman. When she learned a day before her death that she could not jsurvive the surgical operation, she an- nounced that she didn't "wan' no fuss ovah my 'mains." "I don' wan' a lot ov cu'ous people standin' roun' lookin' at me when I'm dead and gone. Xevah mm' the cer'mony. Jus' bury me Quick, that's all I ask." She was quite well-to-do, and is said to have left considerable money. NEAR THE SUPPLY THvidermi»(s Locate a Plant in the Woods. Thre deputy game wardens made an im- portant seizure yesterday near Thief River Falls, Minn. After several days of de- tective work they ran down a taxidermists plant where moose and caribou heads were mounted for sale. The heads were taken from animals killed out of season and the meat was sold to lumber camps and deal- ers. Wardens Mercy of Felton, Stevens of Detroit and Riddell of Hallock, captured and confiscated three wagonloads of heads and the poachers will be brought to speedy justice. Deputy Warden Phillips wired Executive Agent Pullerton to-day from Grand Rapids saying that he had made two more ar- rests for illegal killing or deer, one a hunter, and the other a lumberman who had been buying the meat. PRETTYJEACHER She Raced Through the Ozark Hills to Save a Schoolhouae. Yellvill© (Ark.) Correspondence St. Louis Globe-Democrat. In the little town of Oakland, twenty miles north of this place, lives Miss Ida Record, a pretty school teacher who re- cently ran a race to the land office with Jim McVey of the same place, beating him by a fraction of a second, but beating ! him all the same, to the delight of her friends in this part of the state. Miss Record has been the teacher for several years in the village nestled among the Ozarks just off the bank of the picturesque White river. The residents of the village had succeeded by hard work and many privations in building a substantial school- house. For convenience the teacher lived in a, small log house adjacent, with her widowed mother and little sister. There never would have been any question as to the rights of the village in occupying the bit of ground where the schoolhouse is located if it had not been for the recent mineral excitement vhroughout this en- tire county. This was the incentive which induced people to look closely to their own and their neighbors' title deeds, and in the course of his investigations Jim Mc- Vey discovered that the schoolhouse was built upon land that had never been claimed by anybody. The young man made up his mind to own that bit of land, and so took measures to "homestead" it. The school teacher was told of the inten- tions of^the gentleman, and immediately decided that she would present a prior claim to the land, which was of so much value to her as the site of her school- house. The town of Harrison, the seat of the land office, was sixty miles away, over rough mountain roads, but that didn't daunt the little lady, who determined that if Mr. McVey was going there to take her schoolhouse she would get there first and homestead it herself. She called upon her brotner to assist her, and they saddled their horses and the race began. Miss \u25a0Record patriotically defending the rights of the "little red schoolhouse" and Mr. McVey working for Mr. McVey. The ride was long and full of dramatic incideats. Upon reaching White rirer, Miss Record learned that Mr. McVey hid just crossed. She did not wait for the ferryboat, but into the river she urged her horse. It plunged breast high into the stream and swam most of the distance to the other side. Then on to Yellville with foam-flecked sides the horse went, the plucky little rider never hesitating a moment until she had jumped from its back at the door of the clerk's office in this town. The clerk looked at the pretty, flushed face of the lady as she stated her wishes, and it was with real disappointment in his tone that he informed her that McVey had been there five minutes before. "But," said he, "Miss Record, this man's papers have not yet gone to Harrison, and if you can get there before they do you can have the land." It was 5 o'clock in the afternoon, but she was ready to mourn a fresh horse and be- gin the thirty-three mile ride. In the meantime McVey learned that she and her brother had set out for Harrison, and it didn't take him long to make up his mind to follow them. He arrived at Harrison at about the same time as the others, and they rode up to the land office together, only to find that the office did not open until 9 o'clock the next morning. In the interval Miss Record had can- vassed all the possibilities afforded by technicalities, and long before the hour she j was present, having taken her stand at the desk of the recorder, McVey stood before the desk of the receiver. She was in the best humor imaginable, and made several witty remarks at his expense while the re- corder waited watch in hand. Finally he laughed just at the moment the recorder called time and Miss Record, dropping her papers on his desk, said, "I file these papers for record." McVey was one mo- ment too late, his laugh having cost him the homestead. Miss Record declares that as soon as she gets the title she will deed the school buildings to the town of Oakland and although the people of the village feel safe about their schoolhouse, they have cause for regret, as the neighboring town has offered Miss Record more money for her services in its school. i Duluth'D <.<><.<!

AN UNJUST JUDGE Outing's Football Critic Overlooks the Minneapolis Central High. BUT MENTIONS THE DULUTH TEAM Friend* of Minneapolis Boys Amazed —Think Floor City Players Should Be Given Credit. Charles E. Patterson is responsible for a review of interseholastie football in tbfl March number of Outing. Mr.^Patterson devotes little rpace to western football, under which head he places the University school of Cleveland. Coming farther west he gives two very short paragraphs to Chi- cago and one to Minmtfrtl ami the north- west. But that one is a wonder to resi- dents of the northwest who are familiar with the work of the high schools of the state on the gridiron last fall. To be ap- preciated it should be read in full. Here it is: The Duluth Ontrul high Kbool leani seems to have a good claim to the leadership la its section, having beaten Ashland (17 to 0), St. Cloud and other teams of the nortu- western district. It was not scored upon during the season. That is all; Dot a word about the great Minneapolis Central high which played to a standstill everything that came its way during the entire season, which showed such magnificent form throughout the season, in fact, as to place it in a class clear above that of any high school team in the west. There is no questioning the excellent work done by the Duluth high school team but it was not playing teams in the class met by those who contested for honors with the Minneapolis boys. It is true that in the section in which it played the Du- luth team did lead, but Mr. Patterson was not warranted in taking the Duluth team as the representative team of the north- west in its class. It should be called to the attention of Mr. Patterson that the Minne- apolis high school team not only outplayed every team of its class in the state, but met the Madison, Wis., high school and played it "off its feet" and as a final triumph defeated by a score of 39 to 0 the Elgin, 111., high school team which was recognized as one of the leaders if not the leader in Illinois and central western high school football. Stagg of Chicago university and Phil Allen, a Chicago judge of the game, had said that the Elgin team was the best of its class in the country, yet it suffered overwhelming defeat at the hands of the Minneapolis boys, who had begun the sea- son with a tie game with the 'varsity giants, then just beginning their season's work as a team of novices. After contests carrying such honors there should be no question as to the team entitled to the honor of holding the west- ern championship. The Minneapolis team was a taam of individual experts whose team work also was almost without a flaw. In the interests of good sportsman- ship, therefore, the friends of the team feel that Outing should look upon the western high school records with more care and give the Minneapolis boys their dues. BUSINESS METHODS . County Commissioners Inaugurate a Needed Reform. NO UNAUTHORIZED EXPENDITURE Road Records Are in Such Disorder as to Be I seless—Other Business. . Reform in the county's system of book- keeping is to be the watchword with the county commissioners from now on. The grand jury's recent atrictures on the old board's slipshod way of doing business will at least have a wholesome effect on the commissioners now transacting county business. In the past it has been the custom of | heads of departments, judges and other i county officials, to contract off-hand for I work and materials in connection with j their offices and then turn in the bills to the commissioners. Such irregularities, while not so noticeable this year, have reached somewhat alarming proportions in former years, and in a measure have been responsible for the custom knocked out by recent legislation of exceeding ap- propriations and transferring funds from one department to another. Commissioner M. W. Nash introduced a resolution at yesterday's meeting of the commissioners which is designed to head off the indiscriminate contracting of indebtedness without the authority of the board. The \>\v Basis. The resolution provides that hereafter the board will not audit or pay for any work, materials or labor contracted for by any person upon behalf of the county, unless the same is first authorized by the I board. All heads of departments, judges | and other persons desiring materials, work or labor, will hereafter be forced to apply for permission to make such ex- penditures to the commissioners. The auditor was directed to mall a copy of the resolution to each of the persons thus designated. Communications were received from City Engineer Sublette, County Surveyor Cooley and City Attorney Healey, in which the county auditor is asked to re- vise and index the road records in order to determine the legality and location of town and county roads and highways. The city engineer has discovered that the records bearing on that subject in his office are so tangled that it is impossible to use them. The auditor informed the board that the I records of his office as to county roads j are in such a state of disorder that it is almost impossible to find the proceed- ings in connection with any particular \u25a0 road. The public, he said, was repeatedly j j turned away without securing information | I the office should be able to furnish trom | | the records if properly arranged and In- j dexed. He asked for $600 with which to ! do the work, which will involve the em- j ployment of extra help. Want Hi* Old Courthouse. St. Peters African M. E. church asked I the board to name a price for the old ; courthouse and grounds. Fourth street j and Eighth avenue S. The church wishes to transform the landmark into an "indus- i trial settlement." John Bogert. who contracted for the flooring of the west end of the bridge connecting Champlin with Anoka, found j that he was unable to fulfill the contract. He was allowefl to withdraw on forfeiting $40. The contract was then reawarded t to Joseph Gleason. A petition signed by prominent Minne- tonka property owners asked for the re- moval of reefs which now endanger navi- gation on the lake. Henry Lauer asked the board to provide his farm in Medina with a drainage ditch. Joseph Merz, another farmer, objected be- cause the ditch would pass through his land, without in anywise benefiting it. The matter will be settled March S. Another petition aaked for a change in the 4oad from West Minneapolis to Ex- celsior. Action will be taken April 6. DISLIKE THE PLAN Calhoun Boulevard Folk Object to Bathhouses. DON'T LIKE CHOICE OF LOCATION An Injunction May Be A»ked if . a Petition Presented Park Board To-day rail*. ¥<*&'* Lake Calhoun folk are on the war path again. The members of the joint park board and city council committee, to which was delegates ihe task of arranging for the construction of bathhouses at Lake Calhoun and in the river, at a recent meeting selected the boulevard bank at Calhoun, bard by the present bathhouses, as the site of the lake bathhouse, and supposed that that settled it. It was Kiveu out that the residents would mako no objection, being resigned to the in- evitable. It appears, however, that this is all a misteke and that the Calhoun people are already up in arms. Tlieir first move was to prepare a protesting petition and have it Figned by all the property owners in the locality. With this In hand, a commit- tee of halt a dozen waited on the park board at its meeting this afternoon and stated the ease mosi spiritedly. If the board heeds not, their next step will be to go after an injunction. The committee declared this afternoon that the Calhoun people would no longer submit to having public bathhouses right under their noses. They constitute a nuisance to everybody living in the neigh- borhood, they said, and keep people from building in that section and lower the value of the property. The north end of the lake, near the icehouses, was the proper place for bathhouses, they claimed. It was more remote from the street car lines than the present site, they admitted, but they declared that this was not an important fact, as 90 per cent of the bath- house patrons use wheels. A site at the south end of the lake has been suggested by some of the park board members. But this means trouble, too. Judge Ueland, who lives close at hand, declares that he will meet the first move in that direction with an injunction. There are no property interests involved at the north end of the lake and no objection will be made to locating the new houses at'that point. Park Superintendent Berry insists that the beach there is the best on the whole lake. roiI,DVT .STAY AWAY Red River Valley Resident Who Sold x Out Uu> s \nain. Special to The Journal. Fargo, N.

After an investigation, he con- cluded that there, was nothing like grow- ing wheat in the Red river valley, and has just concluded the purchase of a section of land, with fine buildings, near his former home. He showed his faith in the country by paying $23.50 cash per acre for the land.

STRAWBERRIES CAME HIGH Sequel to a War Between Hotel* at Storm Lake. lowa. Special to The Journal. Fort Dodge, lowa, March s.—Strawber- ries have assumed a new valuation at Storm Lake as the result of a banquet iecently given by W. A. Jones, a prom- inent dry goods merchant, at the Brad- ford Hotel. There are two hotels at Storm Lake, the Bradford and the Park, the Bradford being managed by H. l! Wilson and the Park by his uncle, George Wilson. The Bradford is a new hotel, and since its opening a hotel war has been waging merrily. Some weeks ago, Mr. Jones entertained what is known as the Uneeda Club, at the Bradford. Twenty covers were laid, and Mr. Jones states that Mr. Wilson, the manager of the hotel, had agreed to provide the banquet at $2 per plate. At the last moment, it is claimed that Mr. Wilson said he was desirous of getting some strawberries, which would add to the size of the bill. Mr. Jones was will- ing, and so the berries were added to the bill, which amounted to $112, or $5.50 per plate, instead of $40. or perhaps a little more, which Mr. Jones had ex- pected to pay. This action on the part of Mr. Wilson aroused the ire of Mr. Jones, who spepd- ily took sides in the hotel war and pro- ceeded to aid the Park by every means in his power. Mr. Jones is "a larg" buyer and is much sought by traveling men. It speedily became evident that Mr. Jones would buy of no salesman who was stopping at the Bradford, and not content with this, he did his best to persuade the other merchants in the city to follow his example. A large num- ber of them have done so, and business is growing bad for the Bradford. Mr. Jones paid his bill, but clafms that the $72 which he paid for strawberries will cost Mr. Wilson dear before he is through with him. DECLARES FOR THK HATCHET Rev.

A BILL FOR ISSUE OF MORE BONDS The Proceeds to Create a Special \u25a0 .\u25a0 . Fund to Meet l*re»i»iiisj * • .. '\u25a0 '-'•,-\u25a0\u25a0•\u25a0\u25a0 Demands. The paving situation in Minneapolis is not so desperate after all, according to a new theory of the city authorities who have been investigating closely after much study of the city charter. These authorities have evolved a scheme which they believe will meet the issue. Their ideas are em- bodied in a bill presented to the Henne- pin delegation yesterday afternoon. The bill was prepared by City Attor- ney Healy, and is entitled "An act to authorize and empower the common coun- cil of any city in the state of more than 50,000 inhabitants to issue and sell municipal bonds and use the proceeds thereof for defraying the cost of making local improvements in advance of the collection of the special assessments levied thereon." The Present System. Under the present system in Minne- apolis the initial cost of paving, and of curb, gutter and sewer construction, is paid from a special fund known as the "permanent improvement revolving fund," and the same is returned to the city in five annual installments by the owners of the abutting property. The fund is quite Insufficient, however, for the needs of the city, yet it has been held hitherto that there was no remedy. City Attorney Healy believes now, however, that he has found a way out of the predicament and his bill embodies his ideas. The bill, in brief, provides that common councils in cities of the above class may authorize the issuance of bonds for not over $250,000 for a special fund, wholly distinct from all other funds of the city, yet supplementing the present revolving fund. The fund made by the sale of the bonds shall be used only In the lines of paving, curb, gutter and sewer work. Primarily, it is intended to relieve the situation in respect to paving and pre- sumably will be expended largely in this wise. Must Be Sold Above Par. It is provided in the act that no bonds can be sold at less than par and that they must bear interest at a rate not to ex- qeed 4 per cent; and they can not be Is- sued except by a two-thirds vote of the council. It is also required that no city may authorize the issue of such bonds when the city debt exceeds 10 per cent of the assessed valuation. The city attorney, accompanied by a dele- gation of aldermen was assured that the measure would be investigated carefully and, if found to be practicable, would be pushed vigorously. Changed Its Mind. So many protests came from Minneapolis taxpayers against the bill raising the salaries of the municipal court iudges that the Hen- nepin delegation reconsidered its action yes- terday. When the delegation met indica- tions favored a reduction in the salary of the special judge, leaving him at the present fig- ure, $3,000. George E. Nevius, representing the Tax- payers" League, appeared before the delega- tion in support of the Roberts bill prohibiting nepotism, and other bills favored by the Tax- payers' League. "DEAD AND DOWN" LOGGING Literal and Strict Interpretation of the Act—The Results. Duluth, Minn., March 5. —Reports from the western part of this district, along the Indian reservations, are that the wording of the dead and down timber act is being very strictly interpreted, and that the log- ging of dead and down timber is closely watched. Those in charge are permitted no discretion, and if a tree shows green it must be left, even though it may be burned in a girdle and sure to die at once, or if it is the only trunk left standing in an erea of such size that nobody will ever take the trouble to come back after it. In consequence, say those from here who have investigated the conditions there of late, the Indians will get little or noth- ing out of their timber, and the buyers will make far less than if other conditions were in vogue. ! When the dead and down pine of the reservations is cut off the reds will have nothing left except their bare land, for the cutting out of dead and down one year will promptly make a lot of fresh dead and down ; another season, by fires in the ehoppings, windfalls, etc., and in a short time there will be nothing left and little to show for what has been taken. : The dead and down timber Is sold at $3 a thousand where it would bring $4 or $5 if it was logged economically and all was taken.

AN IMPORTANT PROVISO A GOOD POLICE RECORD THE PARK BOARD LOOKS AHEAD If the Government Sells Water Power It Wants the City to Get It. "THE FORCE'S" FEBRUARY WORK Tom Brown and. Col. Ames Are "Pointing With Pride"—Xew Force Handicapped. % If the United States government should ever decide to lease or sell the power generated by the proposed dam in the river at Minnehaha, the hard-headed business men on the park board propose to fix matters so that the city of Minne- apolis will have the first chance at it. The government has asked the cession by the board of about eleven acres of land now included in Minnehaha park, in con- nection with the lock and dam at that point. At yesterday's meeting of the board, the committee reported in favor of the request, but suggested that the board require a fair compensation for the land taken and, moreover, have it provided in the deed that if the government should ever conclude to dispose of the water pow- er rights there the city of Minneapolis shall be preferred. When the park board relinquished its flowage rights in connec- tion with the lock and dam at Meeker Island, no such reservation was made, and It Is now thought that this was a business mistake. INSURANCE COMPANY 'BUMPS' Minneapolis Fire and Marine in the Hands of a Receiver. On application of Elmer Dearth, state In- surance commissioner, Judgn Elliott decided yesterday to appoint a receiver for the Minneapolis Fire and Marine Insurance com- pany. The receiver's name will be announced later. The liabilities are said to be about $90,000. The annual statement filed Jan. 1 shows $21,973.04 in unpaid losses and $20,606.27 In uncolleeted premiums. The ledger assets amounted to $3,041.66, and assessments had been levied on the members amounting to $99,274.43. The amount of policies in force Jan. 1 was $7,007,164.21. The assessment re- cently made will not yield much. ROSIWTSWINGS IT Organizes a New St. Paul Globe Company.

Anoka, Minn., March 5. —The Mr Parian building on the west side of the Rum river was destroyed by lire yesterday afternoon. The building was occupied by Ben Martin as a saloon. There was no insurance on either building or contents. Loss on building, \u26662,000, and on contents about $300.—Mrs. Mary A. Ryan. ex-po»tmistress, was summoned to appear before the United States grand Jury at St. Paul to-day to testify of the alleged shortage reported in the office some six weeks ago. i DIED IN MINNEAPOLIS. Special to The Journal. Hastings, Minn., March 6.—Mrs. William Strathern of Rich Valley, wife of the chair- man of the board of commissioners of Da- kota county, died in Minneapolis Sunday evening. The funeral will be held from the family residence in Rich Valley to-morrow — The funeral of Arthur Hoffman, son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Hoffman of Hampton, was held in that town to-day. In the absence of the mayor. Colonel Fred W. Ames, superintendent of police, and Thomas R. Brown, Jr., private sec- retary, are pointing with pride to the record of the police department during the month of February. Mr. Brown says that so far as the facts can be gleaned from the records, the month of February, 1901, has never been excelled in efficiency since the department was established. The amount of stolen property recovered during the month was 94 per cent of the amount reported, an unheard-of rec- ord. In the matter of robberies and small criminal offenses, the plain-clothes men have practically cleared up every case reported. In every case of any im- portance, the criminals have been rounded up and punished, or are held awaiting the action of the grand jury. The recoi"d"for the month in the munici- pal court shows a fine sheet for the de- tectives and in fact for the entire po- lice department, says Secretary Brown The report shows that the number of ar- rests made were double the number re- corded by any other February, very many more offenders were convicted of petty offenses, and nearly four times as \u25a0many persons were bound over to the grand jury. ."The record is one to be proud of," said Secretary Brown, "and the department de- serves great credit. Xo one not intimate- ly associated with the operation of the police department in a great city lika Minneapolis can understand the difficul- ties under which a new administration labors. Every species of deception is practiced by unscrupulous persons to de- feat the efforts of tine Inspectors and the police officers in the performance of their duties." A ROARING MARCH A Forty-Mile Wind Did Mnch Dam- March certainly came in this year with leonine force. The distance covered by the wind in seven hours from 8 o'clock on Sat- urday until 10:30 Sunday morning was 250 miles. From 10 o'clock until 2 the average was about thirty-six miles an hour. The maximum wind was forty-four miles about 10:30 and 12:45 Sunday noon. Much dam- age was done to trees, and in some cases branches an inch thick were strewn on the sidewalks. The roof of the coal office at Sev- enth street and Third avenue N was blown off, and a billboard was blown into a piate glass window at 6 Washington avenue S. A plats window was blown in on Fifth street N. The Bijou theater electric sign was blowa down. The fire department was called on to adjust the smokestack of the St. James hotel, and to take down a sign at First avenue 3 and Third street which was threatening dan- ger. . age Yesterday. On some unusually exposed corners church goers were forced bodily into the street by the blasts of wind. The thermometer at the government office registered 8 above thia morning. Owing to the fact that Minnesota people are unaccustomed to wintry weather, this temperature seemed unusually low. It will be colder to-night. FAILURE AT MANKATO J. G. Kolier. Dealer in Coal.

BOARD FOUND A VICTIM©\K SQIATTER HAS TO PAY

One Evicted Squatter WhoMast Pay Costa.

A year ago last summer the park boardtejected about half a hundred squatterfamilies from park board property on theEast Side flats. Moral suasion was in-\u25a0umcient with a score or so and 'thetooard officials had to call in the sheriff.A legal ejectment is expensive. It aver-aged about $20 to the family in this case,and the subsequent costs incident to get-ting judgment for costs brought the totalup to about half as much more. The poikboard had to give bonds for costs, and indue time it had to "pay the freight." Not• single one of the judgments for costshas ever been satisfied.

Now, at last, however, the park boardfcas found a victim. He is August Ander-«on, who was so unfortunate as to own avacarr* lot in North Minneapolis. Recent-ly he sold the lot, but has never been ableto give a clear title on account of thepark board judgment against him. He ap-pealed to the board to give him a satisfac-tion of judgment. The matter was in-fve&tigated by a committee, which reportedto the board advising that Anderson beSet off on payment of $19, the amount ofche original judgment. The report was•.dopted. Commissioner Johnson alone pro-les-ting, and presumably the money willIbe paid. It is predicted, however, thatithis will be the only money ever col-lected on this account.

Mr. Johnson took the ground , that soSong as there was no possibility of ever(collecting a cent from any of the others,Bit -was en injustice to enforce payment in•febls'case.

TWO LAPS—WATERMayor Ames' Stunt at West Baden

Springs.

HE IS RECOVERING RAPIDLY

Alderman I'eter NeUun and S. Svren-

moii Return, Bringing Tidings

ol ihe Abitent Mayor.

Alderman Peter Nelson and S. Swenson,a fellow eleventh warder, have returnedafter a two weeks" sojourn at West Ba-den, lnd. They report Mayor Ames asenjoying one of the most delightful ex-periences of his life and gaining inhealth and spirits every hour.

The treatment is an arduous one, theysay, but the doctor is coming up to iherack manfully, and up to the time of theirdeparture he hadn't missed a stroke ofthe task set for him.

One of the regular "stunts" is a three-mile brisk walk before breakfast, un-aided by the artificial inspiration of an"eye opener," and at various other timesof the day the patient reels off moremiles around the miniature race trackand "puts down" a glass of the foul-smelling spring water every two laps.Ten days of this, it is claimed, will putthe bloom of youth on the wrinkled vis-age of an octogenarian, and the eleventhward pilgrims predict that the doctorwill come back rejuvenated, with tire Inhis eye and ginger all through his sys-tem, and will set a most strenuous paceduring the coming months.

The doctor is very anxious, they say,that his whereabouts should be kept asecret from the Minneapolis community,and the last thing before they startedfor home he warned them to keep a pad-lock on their lips. Naturally they weresurprised to get back and find that thesecret was already out.

The renovated mayor will return Friday.

PRETTYJEACHERShe Raced Through the Ozark Hills

to Save a Schoolhouae.

Yellvill© (Ark.) Correspondence St. LouisGlobe-Democrat.

In the little town of Oakland, twentymiles north of this place, lives Miss IdaRecord, a pretty school teacher who re-cently ran a race to the land office withJim McVey of the same place, beatinghim by a fraction of a second, but beating

! him all the same, to the delight of herfriends in this part of the state. MissRecord has been the teacher for severalyears in the village nestled among theOzarks just off the bank of the picturesqueWhite river. The residents of the villagehad succeeded by hard work and manyprivations in building a substantial school-house. For convenience the teacher livedin a, small log house adjacent, with herwidowed mother and little sister. Therenever would have been any question as tothe rights of the village in occupying thebit of ground where the schoolhouse islocated if it had not been for the recentmineral excitement vhroughout this en-tire county. This was the incentive whichinduced people to look closely to theirown and their neighbors' title deeds, andin the course of his investigations Jim Mc-Vey discovered that the schoolhouse wasbuilt upon land that had never beenclaimed by anybody. The young manmade up his mind to own that bit of land,and so took measures to "homestead" it.The school teacher was told of the inten-tions of^the gentleman, and immediatelydecided that she would present a priorclaim to the land, which was of so muchvalue to her as the site of her school-house. The town of Harrison, the seat ofthe land office, was sixty miles away, overrough mountain roads, but that didn'tdaunt the little lady, who determined thatif Mr. McVey was going there to take herschoolhouse she would get there first andhomestead it herself. She called upon herbrotner to assist her, and they saddledtheir horses and the race began. Miss

\u25a0Record patriotically defending the rights ofthe "littlered schoolhouse" and Mr. McVeyworking for Mr. McVey. The ride waslong and full of dramatic incideats. Uponreaching White rirer, Miss Record learnedthat Mr. McVey hid just crossed. She didnot wait for the ferryboat, but into theriver she urged her horse. It plungedbreast high into the stream and swammost of the distance to the other side.Then on to Yellville with foam-fleckedsides the horse went, the plucky little ridernever hesitating a moment until she hadjumped from its back at the door of theclerk's office in this town. The clerklooked at the pretty, flushed face of thelady as she stated her wishes, and it waswith real disappointment in his tone thathe informed her that McVey had been therefive minutes before. "But," said he, "MissRecord, this man's papers have not yetgone to Harrison, and ifyou can get therebefore they do you can have the land." Itwas 5 o'clock in the afternoon, but shewas ready to mourn a fresh horse and be-gin the thirty-three mile ride. In themeantime McVey learned that she and herbrother had set out for Harrison, and itdidn't take him long to make up his mindto follow them. He arrived at Harrisonat about the same time as the others, andthey rode up to the land office together,only to find that the office did not openuntil 9 o'clock the next morning.

In the interval Miss Record had can-vassed all the possibilities afforded bytechnicalities, and long before the hour she jwas present, having taken her stand at thedesk of the recorder, McVey stood beforethe desk of the receiver. She was in thebest humor imaginable, and made severalwittyremarks at his expense while the re-corder waited watch in hand. Finally helaughed just at the moment the recordercalled time and Miss Record, droppingher papers on his desk, said, "I file thesepapers for record." McVey was one mo-ment too late, his laugh having cost himthe homestead. Miss Record declares thatas soon as she gets the title she will deedthe school buildings to the town of Oaklandand although the people of the village feelsafe about their schoolhouse, they havecause for regret, as the neighboring townhas offered Miss Record more money forher services in its school. i

AN UNJUST JUDGEOuting's Football Critic Overlooks

the Minneapolis Central High.

BUT MENTIONS THE DULUTH TEAM

Friend* of Minneapolis Boys Amazed

—Think Floor City Players

Should Be Given Credit.

Charles E. Patterson is responsible fora review of interseholastie football in tbflMarch number of Outing. Mr.^Pattersondevotes little rpace to western football,under which head he places the Universityschool of Cleveland. Coming farther westhe gives two very short paragraphs to Chi-cago and one to Minmtfrtl ami the north-west. But that one is a wonder to resi-dents of the northwest who are familiarwith the work of the high schools of thestate on the gridiron last fall. To be ap-preciated it should be read in full. Hereit is:

The Duluth Ontrul high Kbool leani seemsto have a good claim to the leadership la itssection, having beaten Ashland (17 to 0),St. Cloud and other teams of the nortu-western district. It was not scored uponduring the season.

That is all; Dot a word about the greatMinneapolis Central high which played toa standstill everything that came its wayduring the entire season, which showedsuch magnificent form throughout theseason, in fact, as to place it in a classclear above that of any high school teamin the west.

There is no questioning the excellentwork done by the Duluth high school teambut it was not playing teams in the classmet by those who contested for honorswith the Minneapolis boys. It is true thatin the section in which it played the Du-luth team did lead, but Mr. Patterson wasnot warranted in taking the Duluth teamas the representative team of the north-west in its class. It should be called to theattention of Mr. Patterson that the Minne-apolis high school team not only outplayedevery team of its class in the state, butmet the Madison, Wis., high school andplayed it "off its feet" and as a finaltriumph defeated by a score of 39 to 0 theElgin, 111., high school team which wasrecognized as one of the leaders if not theleader in Illinois and central western highschool football.

Stagg of Chicago university and PhilAllen, a Chicago judge of the game, hadsaid that the Elgin team was the best ofits class in the country, yet it sufferedoverwhelming defeat at the hands of theMinneapolis boys, who had begun the sea-son with a tie game with the 'varsitygiants, then just beginning their season'swork as a team of novices.

After contests carrying such honorsthere should be no question as to the teamentitled to the honor of holding the west-ern championship. The Minneapolis teamwas a taam of individual experts whoseteam work also was almost without aflaw. In the interests of good sportsman-ship, therefore, the friends of the teamfeel that Outing should look upon thewestern high school records with morecare and give the Minneapolis boys theirdues.

. Reform in the county's system of book-keeping is to be the watchword with thecounty commissioners from now on. Thegrand jury's recent atrictures on the oldboard's slipshod way of doing business willat least have a wholesome effect on thecommissioners now transacting countybusiness.

In the past it has been the custom of| heads of departments, judges and otheri county officials, to contract off-hand forI work and materials in connection withj their offices and then turn in the bills tothe commissioners. Such irregularities,while not so noticeable this year, havereached somewhat alarming proportionsin former years, and in a measure havebeen responsible for the custom knockedout by recent legislation of exceeding ap-propriations and transferring funds fromone department to another.

Commissioner M. W. Nash introduced aresolution at yesterday's meeting ofthe commissioners which is designed tohead off the indiscriminate contracting ofindebtedness without the authority of theboard.

The \>\v Basis.

The resolution provides that hereafterthe board will not audit or pay for anywork, materials or labor contracted forby any person upon behalf of the county,unless the same is first authorized by the

I board. All heads of departments, judges| and other persons desiring materials,work or labor, will hereafter be forcedto apply for permission to make such ex-penditures to the commissioners. Theauditor was directed to mall a copy ofthe resolution to each of the personsthus designated.

Communications were received fromCity Engineer Sublette, County SurveyorCooley and City Attorney Healey, inwhich the county auditor is asked to re-vise and index the road records in orderto determine the legality and locationof town and county roads and highways.The city engineer has discovered thatthe records bearing on that subject in hisoffice are so tangled that it is impossibleto use them.

The auditor informed the board that theI records of his office as to county roadsj are in such a state of disorder that it isalmost impossible to find the proceed-ings in connection with any particular

\u25a0 road. The public, he said, was repeatedly jj turned away without securing information |

I the office should be able to furnish trom || the records if properly arranged and In-j dexed. He asked for $600 with which to! do the work, which will involve the em-j ployment of extra help.

Want Hi* Old Courthouse.

St. Peters African M. E. church askedI the board to name a price for the old; courthouse and grounds. Fourth street jand Eighth avenue S. The church wishesto transform the landmark into an "indus- itrial settlement."

John Bogert. who contracted for theflooring of the west end of the bridgeconnecting Champlin with Anoka, found

j that he was unable to fulfillthe contract.He was allowefl to withdraw on forfeiting$40. The contract was then reawarded tto Joseph Gleason.

A petition signed by prominent Minne-tonka property owners asked for the re-moval of reefs which now endanger navi-gation on the lake.

Henry Lauer asked the board to providehis farm in Medina with a drainage ditch.Joseph Merz, another farmer, objected be-cause the ditch would pass through hisland, without in anywise benefiting it. Thematter will be settled March S.

Another petition aaked for a change inthe 4oad from West Minneapolis to Ex-celsior. Action will be taken April 6.

DISLIKE THE PLANCalhoun Boulevard Folk Object to

Bathhouses.

DON'T LIKE CHOICE OF LOCATION

An Injunction May Be A»ked if .aPetition Presented Park Board

To-day rail*. ¥<*&'*

Lake Calhoun folk are on the war pathagain. The members of the joint parkboard and city council committee, towhich was delegates ihe task of arrangingfor the construction of bathhouses at LakeCalhoun and in the river, at a recentmeeting selected the boulevard bank atCalhoun, bard by the present bathhouses,as the site of the lake bathhouse, andsupposed that that settled it. It wasKiveu out that the residents would makono objection, being resigned to the in-evitable.

It appears, however, that this is all amisteke and that the Calhoun people arealready up in arms. Tlieir first move wasto prepare a protesting petition and haveit Figned by all the property owners inthe locality. With this In hand, a commit-tee of halt a dozen waited on the parkboard at its meeting this afternoon andstated the ease mosi spiritedly. If theboard heeds not, their next step will be togo after an injunction.

The committee declared this afternoonthat the Calhoun people would no longersubmit to having public bathhouses rightunder their noses. They constitute anuisance to everybody living in the neigh-borhood, they said, and keep people frombuilding in that section and lower thevalue of the property. The north end ofthe lake, near the icehouses, was theproper place for bathhouses, they claimed.It was more remote from the street carlines than the present site, they admitted,but they declared that this was not animportant fact, as 90 per cent of the bath-house patrons use wheels.

A site at the south end of the lake hasbeen suggested by some of the park boardmembers. But this means trouble, too.Judge Ueland, who lives close at hand,declares that he will meet the first movein that direction with an injunction. Thereare no property interests involved at thenorth end of the lake and no objectionwill be made to locating the new housesat'that point. Park Superintendent Berryinsists that the beach there is the best onthe whole lake.

After an investigation, he con-cluded that there, was nothing like grow-ing wheat in the Red river valley, andhas just concluded the purchase of asection of land, with fine buildings, nearhis former home.

STRAWBERRIES CAME HIGH

Sequel to a War Between Hotel* at

Storm Lake. lowa.Special to The Journal.

Fort Dodge, lowa, March s.—Strawber-ries have assumed a new valuation atStorm Lake as the result of a banquetiecently given by W. A. Jones, a prom-inent dry goods merchant, at the Brad-ford Hotel. There are two hotels atStorm Lake, the Bradford and the Park,the Bradford being managed by H. l!Wilson and the Park by his uncle, GeorgeWilson. The Bradford is a new hotel,and since its opening a hotel war hasbeen waging merrily.

Some weeks ago, Mr. Jones entertainedwhat is known as the Uneeda Club, atthe Bradford. Twenty covers were laid,and Mr. Jones states that Mr. Wilson,the manager of the hotel, had agreed toprovide the banquet at $2 per plate. Atthe last moment, it is claimed that Mr.Wilson said he was desirous of gettingsome strawberries, which would add tothe size of the bill. Mr. Jones was will-ing, and so the berries were added to thebill, which amounted to $112, or $5.50per plate, instead of $40. or perhaps alittle more, which Mr. Jones had ex-pected to pay.

This action on the part of Mr. Wilsonaroused the ire of Mr. Jones, who spepd-ily took sides in the hotel war and pro-ceeded to aid the Park by every meansin his power. Mr. Jones is "a larg"buyer and is much sought by travelingmen. It speedily became evident thatMr. Jones would buy of no salesmanwho was stopping at the Bradford, andnot content with this, he did his best topersuade the other merchants in the cityto follow his example. A large num-ber of them have done so, and businessis growing bad for the Bradford.

Mr. Jones paid his bill, but clafms thatthe $72 which he paid for strawberrieswill cost Mr. Wilson dear before he isthrough with him.

FINDING A WAY OUTCity Attorney Healy Thinks He

Has Solved Paving Problem.

A BILLFOR ISSUE OF MORE BONDS

The Proceeds to Create a Special\u25a0 .\u25a0 . Fund to Meet l*re»i»iiisj *• .. '\u25a0 '-'•,-\u25a0\u25a0•\u25a0\u25a0

Demands.

The paving situation in Minneapolis isnot so desperate after all, according to anew theory of the city authorities whohave been investigating closely after muchstudy of the city charter. These authoritieshave evolved a scheme which they believewill meet the issue. Their ideas are em-bodied in a bill presented to the Henne-pin delegation yesterday afternoon.

The bill was prepared by City Attor-ney Healy, and is entitled "An act toauthorize and empower the common coun-cil of any city in the state of more than50,000 inhabitants to issue and sellmunicipal bonds and use the proceedsthereof for defraying the cost of makinglocal improvements in advance of thecollection of the special assessmentslevied thereon."

The Present System.

Under the present system in Minne-apolis the initial cost of paving, and ofcurb, gutter and sewer construction, ispaid from a special fund known as the"permanent improvement revolving fund,"and the same is returned to the city infive annual installments by the owners ofthe abutting property. The fund is quiteInsufficient, however, for the needs of thecity, yet it has been held hitherto thatthere was no remedy. City Attorney Healybelieves now, however, that he has found away out of the predicament and his billembodies his ideas.

The bill, in brief, provides that commoncouncils in cities of the above class mayauthorize the issuance of bonds for notover $250,000 for a special fund, whollydistinct from all other funds of the city,yet supplementing the present revolvingfund. The fund made by the sale of thebonds shall be used only In the lines ofpaving, curb, gutter and sewer work.

Primarily, it is intended to relieve thesituation in respect to paving and pre-sumably will be expended largely in thiswise.

Must Be Sold Above Par.It is provided in the act that no bonds

can be sold at less than par and that theymust bear interest at a rate not to ex-qeed 4 per cent; and they can not be Is-sued except by a two-thirds vote of thecouncil. It is also required that no citymay authorize the issue of such bondswhen the city debt exceeds 10 per centof the assessed valuation.

The city attorney, accompanied by a dele-gation of aldermen was assured that themeasure would be investigated carefullyand, if found to be practicable, would bepushed vigorously.

Changed Its Mind.

So many protests came from Minneapolistaxpayers against the bill raising the salariesof the municipal court iudges that the Hen-nepin delegation reconsidered its action yes-terday. When the delegation met indica-tions favored a reduction in the salary of thespecial judge, leaving him at the present fig-ure, $3,000.

George E. Nevius, representing the Tax-payers" League, appeared before the delega-tion in support of the Roberts bill prohibitingnepotism, and other bills favored by the Tax-payers' League.

"DEAD AND DOWN" LOGGING

Literal and Strict Interpretation ofthe Act—The Results.

Duluth, Minn., March 5.—Reports fromthe western part of this district, along theIndian reservations, are that the wordingof the dead and down timber act is beingvery strictly interpreted, and that the log-ging of dead and down timber is closelywatched. Those in charge are permittedno discretion, and if a tree shows greenit must be left, even though it may beburned in a girdle and sure to die at once,or if it is the only trunk left standing inan erea of such size that nobody will evertake the trouble to come back after it.

In consequence, say those from here whohave investigated the conditions there oflate, the Indians will get little or noth-ing out of their timber, and the buyerswill make far less than if other conditionswere in vogue. ! When the dead and downpine of the reservations is cut off the redswill have nothing left except their bareland, for the cutting out of dead and downone year will promptly make a lot of freshdead and down ; another season, by fires inthe ehoppings, windfalls, etc., and in ashort time there will be nothing left andlittle to show for what has been taken.

: The dead and down timber Is sold at $3a thousand where it would bring $4 or $5if it was logged economically and all wastaken. '-\u0084 • ."">.»;:'cr-}'.-'.

AN IMPORTANT PROVISO A GOOD POLICE RECORDTHE PARK BOARD LOOKS AHEAD

If the Government Sells Water

Power It Wants the City to

Get It.

"THE FORCE'S" FEBRUARY WORK

Tom Brown and. Col. Ames Are"Pointing With Pride"—Xew

Force Handicapped.%

If the United States government shouldever decide to lease or sell the powergenerated by the proposed dam in theriver at Minnehaha, the hard-headedbusiness men on the park board proposeto fix matters so that the city of Minne-apolis will have the first chance at it.

The government has asked the cessionby the board of about eleven acres of landnow included in Minnehaha park, in con-nection with the lock and dam at thatpoint. At yesterday's meeting of theboard, the committee reported in favor ofthe request, but suggested that the boardrequire a fair compensation for the landtaken and, moreover, have it provided inthe deed that if the government shouldever conclude to dispose of the water pow-er rights there the city of Minneapolis

shall be preferred. When the park boardrelinquished its flowage rights in connec-tion with the lock and dam at MeekerIsland, no such reservation was made, andIt Is now thought that this was a businessmistake.

DIED IN MINNEAPOLIS.Special to The Journal.

Hastings, Minn., March 6.—Mrs. WilliamStrathern of Rich Valley, wife of the chair-man of the board of commissioners of Da-kota county, died in Minneapolis Sundayevening. The funeral will be held from thefamily residence in Rich Valley to-morrow —The funeral of Arthur Hoffman, son of Mr.and Mrs. Henry Hoffman of Hampton, washeld in that town to-day.

In the absence of the mayor. ColonelFred W. Ames, superintendent of police,and Thomas R. Brown, Jr., private sec-retary, are pointing with pride to therecord of the police department duringthe month of February. Mr. Brown saysthat so far as the facts can be gleanedfrom the records, the month of February,1901, has never been excelled in efficiencysince the department was established.The amount of stolen property recoveredduring the month was 94 per cent ofthe amount reported, an unheard-of rec-ord. In the matter of robberies andsmall criminal offenses, the plain-clothesmen have practically cleared up everycase reported. In every case of any im-portance, the criminals have been roundedup and punished, or are held awaitingthe action of the grand jury.

The recoi"d"for the month in the munici-pal court shows a fine sheet for the de-tectives and in fact for the entire po-lice department, says Secretary BrownThe report shows that the number of ar-rests made were double the number re-corded by any other February, very manymore offenders were convicted of pettyoffenses, and nearly four times as \u25a0manypersons were bound over to the grandjury.

."The record is one to be proud of," saidSecretary Brown, "and the department de-serves great credit. Xo one not intimate-ly associated with the operation of thepolice department in a great city likaMinneapolis can understand the difficul-ties under which a new administrationlabors. Every species of deception ispracticed by unscrupulous persons to de-feat the efforts of tine Inspectors and thepolice officers in the performance of theirduties."

Aplats window was blown in on Fifth street N.The Bijou theater electric sign was blowadown. The fire department was called on toadjust the smokestack of the St. James hotel,and to take down a sign at First avenue 3and Third street which was threatening dan-ger. .

age Yesterday.

On some unusually exposed corners churchgoers were forced bodily into the street bythe blasts of wind. The thermometer at thegovernment office registered 8 above thiamorning. Owing to the fact that Minnesotapeople are unaccustomed to wintry weather,this temperature seemed unusually low. Itwill be colder to-night.
