A SPECIES OF KNIGHTHOoD.
A White Cross Organization to Re-
spect Women.


Some forty young men and a number Of
old gentlemen gathered at the Friends
church, corner Hennepin avenue and Eighth
street, last evening, for the purpose of
forming a White Cross society. In front
sat Mrs. Van CIeye and Mrs. Plunkett. who
addressed the meeting Sunday evening.
Mrs. Plunkett opened with short address,
in which she appealed to the mems better
natures, and urged them to treat all women
with respect. She thought it would be a
good idea for all young men to treat
every girl as they would have their
own sisters treated. If this rule were OBJ
served, said she, there would be far less un-
fortunate mOmen in the world. and many
much more happy homes. She drew
striking picture of the difference between
men who lead pure life and those who
lead an immoral life, and asked the young
men present to stop moment and consider
what misery they might cause by giving
rein to their passions. AT the close of her
remarks she read the oath which those
who joined would be required to
take. 1t is substance an
oath to protect all women and to use ones
influence in raising fallen women and dis
couragipg coarse and lewd jests. An organ
iZation was then effected with Rev. E. B.
Tabour as president and Richard Stryker
secretary. after which paper was passed
for those who wished to join to sign. 1t
was returned with thirty-one signatures.
Mrs. Van Cleve then made few remarks,
in which she said she hoped all fully real
lied the Importance Of the pledge, and
would do all in their power to join and
protect the girls. George d. Holt, Henry
Stryker and Richard Chute were appointed
nominating committee to report at the
next meeting, which will be held at the
same place next Tuesday evening.

ANOTHER MONEX-EOANING CASE
Julia f. Smith Says She Has Paid
the Notes.


Another money-loaning case has found
its way into the courts. This time it. is
Julia F. Smith, who sues William Dunn
and G. B. Gullison. The plaintiff alleges
that on Oct. 1854, she went to Mr.. Dunn
and borrowed of him $50, executing there
for promissory note for $22, secured by
chattel mortgage on certain property worth
four or five times as much. On Feb. 6,
1885, she borrowed $50 and gave her note
for $40, secured by chattel mortgage upon
certain household effects After she had
borrowed this second amount the plaintiff
alleges that Dunn requested her to make
out the notes and the chattel mortgages to
C. B. Gullison. She claims that she did
not know Gullison and has since come
to the conclusion that the name is
a fictitious one. The plaintiff further
states that prior to Aug. II, 1886, both
notes were paid in full, and that she re-
Quested MI Dunn to cancel both the notes
and the chattel mortgage, but that he has
refused so to do. She alleges that Oh Aug.
II, 1886, Mr.. Dunn entered her house and
removed all of the property mentioned in
The chattel mortgages, to the value OF 500.
She demanded Judgment that the notes be
declared paid in full and ordered Cancelled
and delivered to her, and that the defend
ants be enJoined from selling any OF the
property so taken from the house. AS soon
as the papers were filed the matter was laid
before Judge Y Dung, who Immediately is
sued an injunction against the defendants,
and ordered them to appear Aug. 81, at 8
O'Clock, to show cause why permanent in

HOW IT HAPPENED.
john Kane s.GrOunaed'' Himself
and Was Killed by ELECTRICITY.


Coroner Hill yesterday held an inquest
yesterday at ConolIy's morgue over the re-
mains of John Kane, who was killed
at the saw mill of Beede & Robinson by an
electric shock. An examination of the
body showed that the fingers of the left
hand were burned when they came in con-
tact with the carbon of the lamp. A
place the size of silver dollar just above the
left knee was also badly burned. John
Kelly, who is an Inspector of the Brush
Electric Light company. gave it as his
opinion that when the deceased took hold
of the carbon his left leg accidentiy
touched an iron bolt which fastened a
cable leading to the smoke stack. In
doing this he grounded himself, and
an electric current then passed di-
rectly through his body The acct
dent might have happened even
if the electric current had been shut off, as
there is frequently considerable leakage.
He thought that the platform provided for
the men to stand upon while fixing the
lamps should be made larger, so as to pre-
vent any portion Of their bodies coming in
contact with any substance that will con-
duet electricity. W. H. Brockway, super
intendent of the Electric Light company,
was unable to advance any other theory.
The deceased had been employed as an in
spector for over two years and was regarded
as especially cautious. A. g. Cross, the
mill foreman, produced the carbon, which
had upon it the impression of the fingers of
the deceased. He testified that Kane had
said TO him: 'I'm going 10 wrestle with
those lamps and then I'm going home to
bed" Dr.. F. E. Towers testified that death
had been undoubtedly caused by an electric
shock. The jury returned a verdict to the
effect that death resulted from an electric
shock caused by accidental contact with an
electric current, and recommended that
larger platforms shall hereafter be fur
nished by the company to its inspectors.
