Don't Toss the Baby.

Harper's Bazaar. :.
The throwing a baby into the air and
catching him again is always risky
practice, certain though the tosser may
be of his qui ckness of eye and sureness
of hand. A sudden and unexpected
movement of the child in his mid-airL
fight may result in cruel fall. /.
A gay young father Snatched up his
baby boy one morning and tossed him
to the ceiling. Twice the little fellow
went flying through the air and came
down safely into the waiting arms. The,
third time the excited child gave a
spring of delight as his fathers hands,
released him, plunged forward, and@;
pitching aver the fathers shoulder, fell
head downward to the floor. When the.
poor baby came out of the stupor in
which he lay for hours, it was found
that, although no bones had been bro
ken. the brain had sustained an injury
that would in all probability render the
child an imbecile.
Another baby snatched from the floor
and tossed into the air received fatal
wound in the top of the head from the
pointed ornament of a chandelier. Still
another child slipped between her
fathers hands as he caught at her in
her downward fight, and although his
frenzied grasp on the baby'S arm saved
her from falling to the ground, it
wrenched the muscles and sinews so
cruelty that the girls arm was shrunken
and practically useless to her all her
life. These are extreme cases, but the
fact of their occurring at all should be
enough to warn. ore from the habit Of
relinquishing ones hold on child when
tossing it.

The Lack Of Rapid Transit
Makes This Necessary for
Some.
The Tenement Row and Apart
ment House an Agreeable
Compromise.
Some Of the Advantages and
Disadvantages Of Living
High.
People, However, Should Not
"Flat" if They Can
Help It.

Minneapolis, in its rapid march to
metropolitan greatness, is just APP
preaching the condition when it is nee
essary with quite many to utilize the
upper stories of lofty buildings for
dwelling purposes. The streets are
numbered into the fifties, and the man
who lives in the suburbs must take a
couple of hours day going and coming
to his work. The city lacks rapid
transit, and needs it badly. To
be down town, and reach the Office or
store in time to get to work before the
employer arrives, is a necessity with
many man. The tail building
which is provided with an excel
lent view of the roofs and rear
doors of other buildings instead
of back yard, with vistas OF telegraph
wires instead of shrubbery and waving
trees, possesses this advantage. A man
gets down town early in the morning
because he is already down town-he
lives down town. and only when he gets
a vacation in summer, or on an occa-
sional Sunday, does he discover that the
grass still grows, and that birds sing
out in the fields as he remembers to
have heard them when he was young.
The modern fiat, which usually consists
of a suit of five, six, seven, or
eight rooms tucked way up
from the street, takes the place now of
the comfortable cottage with little
patch of green lawn, and pleasant sur
rouEdings. The baby plays out in the
hall instead of out in the sunshine
across the street. You take an eleva-
tor instead of a street car when you go
home. You do your housekeeping on
the homeopathic plan. A closet serves
for a pantry. and you have folding

The Young Woman Love Of Whom
Proved So Disastrous to Prince
J Rudolph.


The Young Woman Love Of Whom
Proved So Disastrous to Prince
Rudolph.
No d0nbt many Americans who were
at H0mburg last summer, say writer
In the New York World, will remember
the Baroness Vetsera and her two
daughters Baroness Hanna, the elder,
who played in most of the lawn tennis
tournaments, and Baroness Marie. They
lived on the Teuton promenade, and
were seen at all the picnics
given for the Prince of Wales.
They were in no need of
money or getting into the Almanach de
G3tha by the "back door" for they each
had, not only the title in their own right
but also very large fortune. The father
and elder brother died last winter at
Cairo. and the Baroness Marie had only
just come out this winter in Vienna,
being just nineteen years old. They
have been frequently in England,
and had q house in London two
seasons ago. where the elder sister,
Baroness Hanna, came out. There is
still another brother about seventeen
years old. Baroness Marie, or Mary. as
pretty, petite in figure, with beautiful
head and wonderful dark blue eyes.
She spoke several languages and played
and sang equally well. They left HON.
burg in September for Vienna, where
they had one of the finest houses, and
1t was there that she met Prince Ru-
dOlph for the first time; so all the stories
about her having known him for years
are quite untrue.

ALDERMANIC PORTRAITS.

C.P. Enstad, thus far in his alder
manic career, owes his prominence to
his relationship by Fireman Enstad,
who failed to realize Aid. Gray's idea
of what coal shoveler should know
about water gauges and boilers. States
man Enstad displayed some of the stern
old Roman by voting at the last council
meeting to discharge Fireman Enstad.
and by making the longest speech he
has yet made in support of such action.
He said: Il hope the council will take
action to discharge that fireman" This
was Immediately subsequent to the de-
feat of the motion to fire the fireman,
and was not strictly parliamentary,
but showed that Mr.. Enstad,
like ARENAS Ward, was will
ing to sacrifice every reative he had.
The gentleman whose life and deeds are
under discussion is Scandinavian by
descent and painter by trade. He re-
sides i'm the Third ward, and, though a
Republican, was elected by hand
some majority in the late Cyclone. He
was cut out for poet, and in his early
years wrote verses, which were pub
3ished in the fly leaves of his geography !;
but a passion for art appeared
the year after his voice changed and he
went into painting. His studio for
many years was in the rear of a North
side blacksmith shop. He had great
success, and orders poured in upon
him, both original and requests to re-
touch the work of other artists. In the
latter line he won fame and money, as
many wagon box and wheel would
testify if they had words. Mr.. Eustad
Is not in active competition with his
fellow painters now, but deyotes him
self almost entirely to his speciality, the
fligree work ON barber polls.

GREATEST OF IT'S KIND.

The Anne rican Building and Loan
Association-AM Minneapolis Con-
Germ That Is Not Equaled Any
where in Extent.
This association, although organized
only two years ago, now has 175,OOO
shares of stock in force. This is a
larger membership than that of any
other association in the world. The
membership of this association being,
most of 1t. new, and very little money
having been paid in on much of its
stock, the assets are as yet compare
lively small. The association has, how
ever, about S650,000 in cash and mort
cages. 1t is easy to see that if its pres
ent rate of growth continues, this assO-
citation will, in short time, be the larg
est financial institution of any kind in
the West. 1t has 500, 200 securities on
deposit with the state treasurer of Wis
coDsin, having been the first association
to make the deposit required by the
new law in that state.
The Legislature of this State has en-
acted a law of very great importance to
the members of Building and Loan Asso-
ications. Heretofore the laws of this state
have been somewhat meager in their
provisions relating to such Organiza-
lions, and sufficient safeguards have
not been thrown around the business.
With view to remedying these de-
fects, and protecting ourselves and the
public from wildcat companies, the Off
GERS of this Association prepared a
stringent bill, and had the same intro
duced early in the session. This bill
has become law, with few amend
ments. The following are some of its
most important provisions:
First-All funds of the Association
are required to be loaned on real es-
tate security, worth at least double the
amount of the loan, and muStbe secured
by first mortgage.
Second-M Mortgages are made nom
negotiable. This will prevent the Of
ficers from committing fraud by n.y.
pothecating securities.
Third-All securities are required to
be deposited and kept with the State
Auditor, or some responsible Trust Com
pany of this State, in trust for all the
members of the Association.
Fourth-AIl cash received is required
to be promptly loaned out and must not
be allowed to accumulate.
Fifth = Building Associations are
placed under immediate supervision and
control of the Bank Examiner.
Sixth-lt is made the duty of the Bank
Examiner to visit the home Office from
time to time and examine the books,
papers and securities; to see thatpr0per
bonds are given by the officers; that the
funds are kept constantly loaned out;
that the Associations are honestly man.
aged and the law complied with in all
particulars.
SEVENTH is a lso made the duty Of
the Bank Examiner to examine the by
laws of all Associations. and If he finds
anything which is contrary to public
policy or detrimental to the interests of
the members he is required to strike the
same out.
1t will be observed that in this law
everything possible has been done to
secure good business methods and hon.
esty of management. Members of
building associations which are located
In this state can now rest assured that
their interests are amply protected and
their Investments safe.

POLITICAL FLUB-DUB.

;. There is almost a serious miSunder-
standing between the two wings of the
reform administration. Mayor Babb
who started in with flourish of trum-
pets to show how the city could be run
two years without buying anything, and
have a surplus at the end of that time
with which to paralyZe the Democrats,
has apparently gone over to the enemy
and become an advocate of reckless
expenditure" Last week he made
q long arguments before the ways and
means committee in support of a propo-
sition to increase the expenses of the
police department a cool $4,000 this
year. The committee was much i'm
pressed, but before voting the money
thought they would go down and tell
the comptroller about it. Here they
met an uneXp ected obstacle, for the
comptroller shut down on them fiat
footed: told them there was no money
in the treasury; that the general fund
was in the soup, and if they didn't look
out the people would throw the reform
ers in for bait at the end of their term.
His honor withdrew very sad, and re-
ported to VIM Bracket that he would
have to make the present patrolmen
walk faster and cover their beats.

missioner GjertSen'S contract with Gov

seen by the crowd, and when cheers
were called for for the governor, took
off his hat and entered into the spirit of
the occasion with great zest. Thanks
to his efforts two or three hundred

years. Who wants safer investment?
Inquire of F. D. Dibble, 40S Nicollet

the Tribune and Journal less than three
years ago. Some of our old real estate
dealers said Dibble is wild, and they
thereby discouraged Eastern capital
from investing in it. But one of our
shrewdest young operators bought it a
little later on, and to-day it is worth
double, and the five years only three
fifths gone. The corner this side is held
at 50, 900 per foot.
Business is rapidly growing south

south promises in the near future all
that NicOllet avenue of a few years ago
promised and fulfilled. We have to-
day, 97x160 feet between Fifth and
Sixth streets on Second avenue south.

that it will double in value in five

wager that it will in three years. After

REDUCING ExrENsEs-Mov1NG INTO
THE NEXT FLAT.
II iS To he doubted If life in a fat ever

THE NEXT FLAT.
It is to be doubted if life in fiat ever
can be made really homelike, however.
If you are trying to keep house you
will find yourself catching the spirit of
your Surroundings, getting your pastry
from the bakery, buying canned NJ oats,
drinking one-minute coffee and using
gasoline stoves. You feel as if
you were not really living
but merely staying at some hOtel-there
is none of that conplacent sense of pro-
prietorship that is possessed when y0n
live in home, even if you rent it, and
have got chattel mortgage on your
furniture. The principal advantage of
living in flats, to be sure, is that you can
secure the convenience of water and
gas, which can not always be had in the
suburbs, for Minneapolis has grown too
fast to allow the improvements to keep
pace with the needs of all its people
Whether this advantage, coupled with
the necessity for central lOcatiOnSis going
to popularize the living in fats remains
to be seen. but at present the tendency
seems to be with most people to live
away from business streets, if possible,
and architects say that the fiat is not
going to get grip in Minneapolis for
some time to come, but that the tene-
ment row is the compromise between
living in the suburbs or rOOsting in fats
that seem to be most generally adopted.
and that the demand is being quite well
met by builders.

A serious error was committed by the
Republicans of this state in overlook
ing the claims of Capt. John n. Harris,
who. as leader of the Flambeau club,

has been put upon him by the other

were either overlooked or modestly
considered their services worth
nothing to the state. There wasEno
claim set up. for instance, by the men
who were at the Big Boston fire the
night of the tragedy; nor by the gentle
man who rode in Tolletson'S car three
days before and asked him how far it
was to Twenty-sixth street; nor by
the saloonkeeper who sold JIM Bar
rett his jag; nor by the man
who knew Pete Barrett in
Omaha and predicted years ago that he
would come to a bad end: nor by the
census taker of 1880 who wrote Reddy's
descriptions: nor by the reporters who
were onto the inside facts weeks ahead,
and concealed their knowledge for
reasons of state: nor by the young
cyclone who interpreted the languld
movement of Reddy's foot as confess
sion of premeditated crime.

youth. The latest. evidence of this
affection for New England istitutions,
IS the collection of subscriptions from
Minneapolis school teachers for fund
