THE GAS ORDINANCE,
The Committee Will Recommend
Its AdODtioD

Its adoption.
The special committee appointed by
the council to investigate the matter of
gas met yesterday afternoon. The Of
ficlals of the gas company were asked
to attend the meeting, but no one of
them appeared. The substitute ordi-
nance, ,fathered by Aid. Snyder and col
laDorated upon by the other members
of the committee, had Its merits and
provisions discussed pro and con. After
mature deiiberation the committee e.
cided to recommend to the council that
the ordinance be adopted.
The ordinance is a unique one. 1t
provides for all examining board to be
composed of the professors of chemistry
and physical science of the state uni
verslty, and the professor of chemistry
of the Minneapolis high schools. The
duties of this committee will be to pass
upon the qualifications of applicants for
the position of gas inspector. The ordi-
nance creates the position of gas IN
spector and abollshes that OF light in
spector. There is also penalty fixed
for the gas company if it does not meet
all the requirements of the Ordin ance.
If the proper Kind of gas is notfur.
nished the company must make a pro
rata reduction to its customers. It the
company fails to make such a reduction
it shall forfeit to the city this pro rata
amount with an additional 25 per cent.

Peculiar Complaint Lodged at the

p A peculiar complaint was made to
Health Commissioner Kelley yesterday,
which comes under the smoke nuisance
ordinance. The party making the COM
plant resides on the second floor of a
building on Fifth street. the ground fat

the head of which is an inveterate
smoker. In the cleaning of these gentle

at an open window, putfs away at big
pipe, the fumes Of the tobacco as
cending to the windows of the
floor above, which is occupied by
a family from Maine. none of whom
are addicted to the fragrant weed. and
they are consequently greatly annoyed
by the "nasty" habit of the occupant of
the 10 wer floor. Yesterday the asthetic
descendant of the Puritans applied to
DR.. Kelley, and insisted upon having
the nuisance stopped, and the health
commissioner was fain to take the case
under adyisement. In the meantime
the city is threatened with a suit, and
the chances are that DR.. Kelley will have
to order the cause of all the trouble to
retrench on his supply of the weed or
take out patent smoke consumer.

TIE. Judge Beicher bad prepared
lengthy typewriter decision, and as soon
as the case was called he proceeded to de-
liver it.
The first point to which counsel for the
defense had taken exception was con-
tanned in the assertion that the jury had
acted upon evidence other than that intro
duced at the trial Replying to this the
Judge said that it had no weight what
ever, and was merely an assertion of
counsel that was not backed by a single
circumstance. Then, again, to the Obj,c-
tiOu that Truly Shattuck's letters to Poole
had been wrongfuly admitted IN evidence,
Judge BelcheT answered that these letters
had been admitted only in contradiction
of what counsel for the defense had en-
d Favored TO prove oy PoOIe's letters to
Truly, namely, that he was pursuing the
girl in his relentless desire to betray her.
AS. however, the gTavest points on
Which Mr.. Haskell rested his motion for a

In conclusion Judge BeIcher denied
the motion for new trial and also a
motion for al arrest of judgment, and,
calling Mrs. Shattuck to the bar, passed
sentence of life Imprisonment in the usual
form.
Truly Shattuck stood beside her mother

ground that 1t Is an avenue for the possible

the effect mat the dirt and dust of the streets

germs OF disease, which are caught up by the
trailing dresses and often remain in The gar
