them to the board without consulting
me as resident director at all. Then he
and others endeavored to convince me
that it was my duty to spend the entire
appropriation in the erection of a
building, leaving the steam fitting and
extras for an additional appropriation.
S. q. C0mStock advised me, as q lawyer.
that 1t was my duty to do this. | told
him that would get an opinion on the
subject from the attorney general.
That opinion was to the effect that the
appropriation was intended to CON-
plete the building ready for occupancy.
President Lord, contrary to all prece-
dent, was made a member OF the build
Ing committee, but we went ahead
under the advice of the attorney gen
eral, and the result is that we fitted up
the building complete and had $1,000 of
the appropriation left to pay on the
furniture. If had taken the advice of
the president and other people up there
the building would not have been ready
yet. for in the panic of last year no firm
would have put in those steam fixtures
and waited for their money. 1t requires
business man TO manage the finances
of an institution of that kind, and If
cannot manage them on business prin-
ciples do not want TO continue as a
director"

LAMPHERE RESIGNS.
Gives His Reason for Stepping OFF
the Normal Board,

George N. Lamphere, of Moorhead,
yesterday resigned from the state nor.
NAL board. His action, it is said, grows
out of difference of opinion last VIM

and President Lord, of the Moorhead
normal. as to the employment of GER
tain janitor. He employed the janitor,
and she wanted the man discharged.
Mr.. Lamphere, it Is said. asserts that if

INTO a REVOLVER
Ran Couple of Burglars Last
Night.

Ran couple or Burglars Last
Night.
Officer Joe Davis succeeded in max.
ing neat capture of two burglars last
night. The men had entered the place
of the Peoples Express company at
IA, Is and is Ninth street, effecting
an entrance by way of rear window,
which they had pried open with a
crowbar. Mrs. Jens, of the Capitol
hotel, heard the noise and saw the men
enter, as did also one of the company's
men, and notified the officer. Davis
called Officer Gaul, aud had him take a
station at the front of the
Ninth street door. Then he went
to the rear, where a blind
alley runs between the buildings. When
the men saw the officer at the front
door they made run to the window
and jumped out, only to find themselves
confronted by big revolver. They
were ordered to throw up their hands,
which they did. and then were taken to
the central station. They gave their
names as Slim Edmonds and Frank
Clark, and are known to the police as
old offenders. They had made all prep.
aratIonS to get away, having unlocked
one of the front doors, so as to be able
to make run, ii needed. The place
was stored with large number of
trunks full of valuables, but the fell
lows secured nothing.

The Dangers in Hard Water.


Selected.
There seems to be just now one Of
those spasmodic revivals of interest in
the condition Of the water supply that
occasionally occurs after some epidem-
ic Or other visitation of disease.
There are some very peculiar ideas on
the subject Of water drinking and the
sort of water that is most desirable.
and certain supposedly learned mem
bers of the medical profession hold the
cries in this line that the average lay
man finds it difficult to reconcile with
common sense and the generally ac-
copied ideas of the world. For exam
pie: 1t has been declared as an absO-
Lutte fact that cholera, klndney trOu-
bles and many other diseases are rare
in localities where only pure. soft
yater Is used. The presence of lime
nd salt is favorable to these maladies.
nd yet some Of these doctors advc-
ate the clearing and softening of
vater by the Use Of lime. Now if. as
one class of doctors claim, lime is the
INJURIOUS element in hard water, pro-
lucing calcull Of various sorts, why is
lme water SO strongly insisted upon
and prescribed by others? According

Cold-storage Rats and cats.
Scientific A neric0p.

Scientific AD,erlr"n.
The Pittsburg Dispatch says that III
the cold storage warehouses in that
citv there we're no rats Or mice. The
temperature in the cold rooms was too
low. The keepers soon found, hoWey-
or. that the rat Is an animal OF remark
able adaptability. After some OF these
houses had been in operation FOR few
months. the attendants found that rats
were at work in the rooms where the
1enperature was constantly kept below
the freezing point. They were found
to be clothed in wonderfully long and
thick fur, even their tapering, snake
like tails being covered by thick
growth Of hair. Rats whose coats have
adapted themselves to TIE conditions
under which they live have domestica-
ted themselves in all the storage ware
houses in Pittsburg. The prevalence
of rats in these places led to the intro
duction of cats. Now, it is well known
that pussy is lover of warmth and
comfort. Cats, too, have great adapt
ability to conditions. When cats were
turned loose In the cold rooms they
pinned and died because of the excessive
cold.
One cat was finally introduced into
the rooms of the Pennsylvania Storage
Company which was able to withstand
the low temperature. She was a cat OF
unusually thick fur, and she thrived
and grew fat in quarters where the
temperature was below 30 degrees. By
careful nursing brood of seven kittens
was developed in this warehouse into
sturdy, thick-furred cats that love an
Icelandic cline. They have been dis
tributed among the other cOld-stOrage
houses of Pittsburg, and have created a
peculiar breed of cats, adapted to the
conditions under which they must eX-
list to find their prey These cats are
short-tailed, chubby pussles, with hair
as thick and full of under fur as the
wildcats Of the Canadian woods One
OF the remarkable things about them
is the development of their "feelers."
These long, stiff hairs that protrude
from eats nose and eyebrows are, in
the ordinary domestic feline, about
three inches long. In the cats cultiva-
ted in the cold warehouses the "feelers"
grow to length of five and six inches
This is probably because the light is
dim in these places. and all movements
must be the result of the feeling sense
The storage people say that if one Of
these furry cats is taken into the open
air, particularly during this hot spell
t will die in few hours 1t cannot
endure a high temperature, and an in
reduction into a store would send it
