POLICIES NEED REVISING.
New Minnesota Law Stirs Up In
surance Men.

Surance Men.
Special to the Globe.
CHICAGO, Aug. 23.-There was a
large attendance today at the meeting
of managers of insurance companies
doing business in Minnesota called for
the purpose of considering the new
standard policy and it's blunders. R.
J. Smith, secretary of the Traders was
elected chairman, and S. S. Frow, of
the Commercial Union, secretary.
Those present engaged in a very spir-
tied discussion of the question in hand,
taking up also the subject of safe and
proper methods of complying with that
section of the new law which pro-
vides that all companies shall in issu-
ing policies give the value of the prop
erty insured, which, in event of loss,
shall constitute the basis of settle
ment.
Upon a motion of Manager A. j.
Harding, of the Springfield, a COM
mittee of seven was appointed to thor
oughly consider the questions, being
given power to engage legal talent in
determining the correct method of
procedure, and to visit st. Paul and
confer with the Minnesota officials.
The committee was composed of the
following: r. j. Smith, chairman;
Eugene Cary, J. J. Mcdonald, r. J. o.
Hunter, George M. Fisher, Eugene
Harbeck, all of Chicago, and c., H.
Bigelow, of st, Paul. A resolution was
also adopted requesting interested COM
panies to take no action in the matter
until after Sept. Is, by which time it
is expected the committee will have
fully considered all the points in the
case and will have made its report.
By this method it is hoped to secure
unanimity of action among the various
companies.

Notable Celebration by the Mem
beers of the Thirteenth Avenue
NJ. e. Church.
The members of the Thirteenth Ave-
nue. NJ. E. church celebrated last even
ing the twelfth anniversary of the dedi-
cation of their church. The building
was decorated in a way which, with
regard to beauty and originality, left
nothing to wish for. The only ma
terials used were sheaves of cereals and
punches of wild flowers. In front of
the altar was built a railing of delicate
goldenrods, while the altar itself was
dressed with the same flowers and
gigantic bouquets of white and yellow
daisies spread themselves all around
it. Every pillar was encircled with cat
tails and goldenrod. The whole ar.
rangement made most pleasing i'm
preston, and honored greatly it's origi-
nator, Ed Kempton. The church was
filled with members and their friends.
All ages were represented, and ali
seemed equally interested in the ceIe>
brations of the day.
A well-arranged programme was
rendered, after those present had been
given proper time for the exchange Of
greetings. Rev. F. M. Rule presided,
introducing the different numbers with
a few fitting words. The prayer was
offered by Rev. ]. w. Martin, of St.
Paul, who some years ago was the
pastor of the church. He was followed
by c. w. Steward, one of the Oldest
members of the congregation, who ex..
tended a hearty welcome to all present,
Addresses were delivered by DR.. J.

ent date; and by Rev. j. B. Starkey,

dered by members of the church.

cisiOn-GeneraI Mill City
News.

Albert Alonzo Ames, M. D., is a
candidate for mayor. This has
chestnutty ring, but it is right just
the same. The veteran war horses
nostrils have been tingling ever
since he stuck his muzzle back into
the fresh ozone of the North Star
state, but it is said that his CUB
ernatorial aspirations have been sat
lsfied, once and for all. Since his
return from the East DR.. Anes has
opened up his Office in modest quar-
tiers, but he has taken good care
that his sign should be flung to the
breeze in two streets, and all his old
friends have been given notice that
he is back to stay, and new friends
he is making as rapidly as of yore.
He has also established his home in
a part of the city where he can be
considered an advantageous politi-
cal choice. Oak Park addition now
claims him, and Oak Park is one Of
the most picturesque portions of the
Third ward, where Democrats are
about as numerous as Republicans,
the proportions varying firm one
election to another. Furthermore.
DR.. Ames lives in the same precinct
with Aid. @Fugh Jennings, and the
two have been detected of late in sew
eral close conferences. The senior
alderman from the Third ward has
always had a warm spot in his heart
for DR.. Ames on account mainly of
the latter'S warm advocacy of the
cause of the trades unions, with
which Aid. Jennings was closely
identified, and he is among those
who is urging the doctor to let his
name go before the convention. This
is what the doctor wants, it is be-
ieved, rather than to come out as
an open and avOWed candidate, which
might arouse old antagonisms and
endanger the success of the ticket.
Aid. Jennings, who may be pre-
sumed to speak eX cathedra, says:
Il have no fault to find with Mayor
Pratt, for he is the strongest candi-
date, in my opinion, the Repub-
icans can put up. He has made
his party for many years, but all
this talk about the Democrats in
dorsing him next year is all bosh
The Democrats will go into the field
in earnest, as they always have, and
L believe they can win with the
proper man. That man, in my opin-
ion, is DR.. Ames. He is strong with
the laboring element, and I believe
he is stronger with people in gen.
eral than he was before. The old
bitternesses have been obliterated,
L think and hope, and with a united
party behind him, he ought to sweep
the city like a wildfire. I believe he
is the only Democrat in the city who
can beat Robert Pratt

her tells how the. famous sextet
passed the time. Immediately after
going to Woodstock a daily pro-
gramme was arranged, and while
this programme entailed a good
deal of study which might be regard
ed by many as laborious under the
conditions, the plan was rigidly adj
hered to throughout the three
months. There was a regular and
systematic routine, and this was adj
hered to so religiously as to make
the period OF Imprisonment really
interesting and profitable in an in
tellectual way. It was a very good
school, and some of the prisoners
profited by it to a very great eX-
tent. Secretary Kelliher says the

1t is proposed to push the work of

The six men who were released from
the Woodstock Jail Thursday morn

by their chief to take up the work

Mrs. Perkins, Career q Most Ro-

The life history of Mrs. Perkins is
one of considerable interest and reads

on the coast, at Madrid, and with an
aunt came to this country when but
twelve years Of age, locating at Tampa.
Fla, where Lora met and married Hal
Perkins when but thirteen years of
age. Even after her marriage she re-
manned IN convent, where she had
been placed by her aunt with the sister.
and five years after her marriage her
husband died, leaving her with one
child, frankie Perkins. Two years ago
last spring she came to Minneapolis
with her sister Lola, the latter having
a few months previously met and mar
r1ed Mortimer Hawkins, who, upon his
arrival in this city entered the employ
of the Pratt Paper company. Mrs.
Perkins was defrauded out of over
$4,000 by the dishonesty of her hus-
bands business partner in the chattIe
mortage loan business and when in this
city was in poor circumstances, being
obliged to sell her jewelry and favor

the time of her death was about to APP

that Hawkins was always jealous of
the love between the two sisters, and
that he is at the bottom of the perse-

night and it is feared that her troubles
might have a serious effect upon her
mind.

STILL HANGS FIRE,
No Action Taken in Regard to the
Smoke Ordinance.

The smoke ordinance is still hanging
fire, to use a suggestive metaphoricai
expression. The committee of thirteen,
to which the city council referred it,
met yesterday afternoon and in the
course of two hours developed that
each of the thirteen members had
variant views concerning the import
ant measure. AS Chairman Colburn
said at the conclusion of the service,
all that was done was in the line of
''cussing and discussing
Aid. Colburn neglected to include in
his summary a bloodthirSty conflict
between Aid. Loye and Miner, which,
aside from its effect on the ordinance,
is interesting, as disclosing secrets of
politics which have long been buried
Aid. Miner is an enthusiastic advocate
of the new ordinance, and is a strong
friend of the Eighth ward politician
sents directly the Fourth ward, to I.
large portion of which the ordinance
will work a direct hardship, and ac>
cordingly, as would be expected, he
opposes the ordinance. Mr.. Olson's
store is in his ward, but SO are many
manufacturing institutions. which a
rigid smoke ordinance might seriously
handicap. Beside, Mr.. Loye looks
farther than the limits of his own
ward, and he would seriously depre-
which would discourage capital from
establishing manufacturing institu~
tons in this city. These two dame
trically opposite views brought the two
statesmen into direct conflict yester-
day, and before many minutes the air
was hot with words which neither of
the gentlemen would like to have his
family hear. They did not swear, be
it said, but they got on the verge
of personalities, and there were signs
of relief when the other members of
the committee cut off the row by a
motion to adjourn.
The result was the hanging up on
a motion by Aid. Jennings to ex-
clude from the limits affected by the
ordinance the milling districts OH both
sides Of the river B. F. Nelson, who has
two large mills inside the fire limits,
said that his experience had shown
that the abolition of the smoke nuis-
ance was as yet not entirely practice

last year on devices expected to abate
the smoke nuisance. and while they
were more or less efficient, there were
still times when dense smoke issued

KELLIHER RETURNS,
Liberated A. r.. U. Man Tells of
Life in Jail.

Sylvester Kelliher, secretary of the
American Railway union, is home
after spending three months in the
county Jail at Woodstock, ILL.,, with
the other officers and directors of
that organization. Secretary Kelli-
her does not look as if his incarcer-
alton worried him much He and
his fellow prisoners think they were
fortunate in not having to serve
their term of sentence in the Cook
county Jail. The Chicago institu-
ton is anything but model of
cleanliness and good sanitation, and
some of the officers who had au-
thority in this case thought it would
have been an unnecessary hardship
to require the A. r. U. leaders to
serve their time In bastile which
is seldom without its murderous in
mates and other criminals of the
tougher sort. Mr.. Kelliher says he
and his fellow prisoners were treated
with every kindness and considera-
ton. The greatest leniency con-
sistent with prison discipline was eN-
