THE sHERIFF,s CHARGES
For Conveying Prisoners VIII Be
Investigated.

The meeting of the board of county
commissioners yesterday was confined
almost entirely to the consideration of
routine business. There was some dis
cussion regarding the charges of the
sheriff for the conveyance of prisoners
to the states prisons and insane people
to the asylums, and Commissioner
Moritz was appointed a committee of
one to investigate the matter.
The settlement of the bondsmen of
the defunct Seven Corners bank with
the county treasurer for the county
funds deposited in the bank was re-
ported. 1t was voted to apply 5000
towards the White Bear boulevard.
Kellerman and Moritz voted against the
proposition.
The county surveyor was instructed
to make an estimate of the cost of i'm
proving Rice street from ]. J. Hills
farm to the 500 crossing, and also to
survey the line of the extension of
Edgerton street SO that the supervisors
may go to work on the road An adj

snEs an Alderman Concerning
Safety Devices on Street Cars.
The committee on streets, of the
board of aldermen, held an adjourned
meeting yesterday afternoon and dis
posed of the remaining business re-
1erred to it. The matters were of a
routine character, with the exception
OF resolution by Aid Ehrmanntraut.
requiring the street railway company
TO remove its safety gates. Aid Ehr-
manntraut thought that the gates were
productive of accidents rather than
preventive, and cited incidents that
had recently occurred to support his
statement. He said that the gates
practically imprisoned the passengers.
The committee laid the matter over
for future consideration The final
order for the paving of South Robert
street with cedar blocks from the
river to the Chicago Great Western
bridge, was recommended to pass.

WHILE LYING IN HIS BED.
His Deed Attributable to De-
spondeney Arising From "a
Grip.
A ONCE PROMINENT MAN
And q Member of the Police
Force Here for Twelve
Years.

Ex-Chief of Police Charles Weber
shot and killed himself early yester-
day morning at his residence, 283
Carroll street. He was occupying
his bed when he fired the fatal shot.
No one in the Weber household heard
the report of the gun.
The tragedy was not discovered
until 7 o'clock, when Miss Louise
Weber knocked at her fathers door
to summon him to breakfast. Re-
ceiving no reply she entered his bed
room. Her fathers silence was ex-
planned. He lay dead before her.
Weber had shot himself in the right
temple. The weapon, one of large
caliber, had fallen from his hand
on the floor.
Mrs. Weber had arisen a half-hour
before. She left her husband sleep
ing peacefully. Later he was heard
walking about his room as if prepar-
ing his toilet.
THE SUICIDE
is apparently unexplainabIe, and can
only be attributable to ill health.
For the past month Mr.. Weber had
been a sufferer from the grip. On
Sunday he was feeling particularly
distressed.
Mr.. Weber was a st. Paul pioneer
favorably known and highly re-
garded in this city. For nearly
twenty years he was prominent po-
liically. His connection with the
police department was extended. 1t
began in 1872 and terminated twelve
years later, when he resigned as
chief. He held that enviable posi-
ton for period Of four years under
Mayors Rice and Dawson.
Charles Weber was born in Ger
many and was fifty-nine years of
age. a part of his boyhood was
passed in London, but he returned
nome and received a military educa-
ton. He came to st. Paul while
quite a young man. He served in
the war with a Pennsylvania COM
pany and was afterward connected
with the regular army, being for a.
time Stationed at Fort Smelling
The date of his funeral has not vet
been announced.

How to Listen to Music.

Not only music students, but people
generally, are conscious of failure to
appreciate the complete significance
and beauty of much of the music they
hear. Classical music, so called, is
indeed almost a bore to them for they
cannot comprehend it, and they look
with envy at the favored few who seem
to be in a seventh heaven of delight
while listening to it. Perhaps no man
in America is better fitted than Mr..
Krehbiel to explain the hidden mystery
and to disclose the occult charm which
lies hidden in this class of music. He
will lecture in Ford's music hall next
Saturday evening, April 20, ON "How to
Listen to Music" under the auspices
of the Schubert Club

Action for DamareS

The suit of Bernhard Schnetza, to
recover from the city $1,500 damages
for personal injuries alleged to have
been sustained in consequence of fan
ing on a defee i've sidewalk on Fair
field avenue last fall, is on trial before
Judge Kerr and a jury. The plaintiff
claims that a plank was broken in the
walk, and when he stepped on it the
opposite end flew up, throwing him
and causing him injuries from which
he was made sick, lame and sore, so
that it will require the payment of the
amount stated to make him whole

street improvement assessments came
UP before Judge Otis yesterday, but on
motion of Assistant Corporation At
torney Phillips the application for
judgment was withdrawn. This was
done at the request Of the board OF
public works. The board thought that
if the allegations in the answer of the
property owners are true to any large
extent, the assessment should be re-
vised. The board therefore thought it
best to make an investigation before
asking for Judgment.
