ALMOST A SUICIDE,
Frank Erren Would Shoot Himself
Oh Account of His Wife's


4 Small-SiZed sensation was created On
West Third street at o'clock last evening,
when Frank w. Erren, the proprietor OF
the marble works at $40 st. Peter street,
proposed TO put bullet through his brains.
Erren is a German by descent and man
who has made more or less money at his
business. He has been twice married. His
last love was 4 Shakopee lady, With whom
lie has lived lovingly ut 242 Canal street
until within the past few months. Domestic
brOilS since then have arisen, and early this
week they had q field fight. 1t Glanced
that on Tuesday, shortly after the row,
Erren went to Lake City to put up tomb
stone. As soon as he was out OF ST. Paul,
Mrs. Erren telegraphed to her father at
ShakOpee to come down at once. He fol-
lowed Instructions and the residence Of Ell
rem on Canal street was deserted and
stripped of every article Of furniture. The
finding Of it thus SO worried Ewen that last
evening he decided to shoot himself Shortly
before o'clock he met his brother-iu-laW
and they entered Charles MataZ' sample
room, 50 West Third street. Here Erren
pulled out his gun, Il 44-calibre revolver
He walked to the back pert of the saloon
and took some cartridges out Of his pocket,
which he procured to load his revolver
MataZ and Errens brother-ill-law followed
him to the back OF the saloon and the
former told him that if he wanted to shoot
himself TO get out of his place. Erren
turned on the TWO and said III shoot both
Of you ii you don't leave me alone" He
then followed them into the front Of the
saloon and sat down at one of the tables,
when he cooked the revolver and placed
the muzzIe to his right temple. The
brotheT-in-law, who stood near by, struck
FTrens hand and turned the revolver away.
Erren jumped up and swore he would
shoot the iirst man that came near him. He
then stepped back into one of the rooms,
and While the people in the saloon waited
patiently to hear shot, the proprietor ran
out and called the patrol wagon. The Off
GERS were on hand in few minutes and
entered the room where Eren was still toy
ing with the loaded pop. He was taken to
the city hall and locked up, although no
specific charge was made against him.

Europe have passed through st. Paul al
ready. on their way to join friends and rel
atives i'll some distant point i'll the West,
and the railroad men take eSpeclal
interest in seeing that they are
not harmed, kidnapped or molested in any
way, and after a conductor has finished his
run he calls the attention of the conductor
succeeding him and informs him OF his
charge, giving him Instructions how to act,
and to be very particular in seeing that the
child is landed safely at its destination, or,
if il goes farther than the conductor, TO see
il safely on the next train. The reason,
pprhapS. that this was not done more eX-
tensiyeIy few wears ago is that the roads
did not have as good connections. AT
nearly every junction point walk OF a
mile or two would have to be made for
transfer; but now the roads generally run
10 the one depot. Another reason Is that
there is more competition now, and the
different companies are obliged to be more
accommodating for most likely when a
road had the monopoly it would not accept
for transportation passenger that would
cause so much inconvenience and trouble,
and for which, in case of a miShap, they
would be held liable to heavy damages.
One male child, years of age, arrived
NJ the union depot this season from Sweden
with a label ON his back and another on his
breast c0nSigning him to Jamestown, Oak.
The little boy only spoke the Swede Ian
guage. and had no money with him TO pay
for something 10 eat, but restaurant men
took delight in pleasing his fancy in giving
linn whatever he noticed and pointed to.
The boy was a bright-appearing little fel-
low, and did not appear to realize his awll-
ward position OF know that he was going TO
meet friends. About two weeks ago lit
tie girl years of age, from Salem, Me-,
was being sent through to Portland, Or.
She had card sewed to her dress stating
her destination, and more attention was
paid to her than any other passenger on the
train. Another little girl years of age was
billed through from Ontario to Brandon,
Manitoba. in the same manner. This
speaks We'll for the railroad employees Of the
country and the managers in charge.

over. Finally the building on Orleans
street, West st. Paul, was visited. A sec
ton of the wall was taken down and the
mortar and stone examined. The result of
their investigation will be talked over to-

In no better form is the confidence that
the public is beginning to have in the rail

many people send their children from points

their names have arrived from points in the
New England states, and even few direct
from Europe, at the union depot, in the

children of only four or five years of age is
only Of recent date and the eases now are

which, it is thought, will make about half
crop. There is large acreage of corn and

killed a great many strawberry blossoms,
but growers say there will be more berries
than can be picked and marketed. There
