COMO AVENUE SERVICE.
Eighth Warders Insist on Car
Every Twenty Minutes.

Prior to the meeting of the board of
aldermen last night, the committee on
streets held circumference with Supt.
Smith of the street railway company
and a delegation of Eighth ward eiti-
zens relative to, Aid. Kaidunski's reSo-
luton directing the street railway COM
pany to run itsComo avenue cars every
twenty minutes from $3.50 a. m. until
midnight.
Supt Smith said that If the resolution
was withheld, the street railway COM
pany would be willing to furnish
twenty-minute service between the
hours Of 5:36 a. M, and $3.50 a. M, and
between 4:30 p. m. and s p. m. This did
not satisfy the Eighth ward delegation,
who insisted that the resolution be sub
mitted to the common council
1t seemed to- be the opinion of the
majority of the committee that it would
be a hardship on the street railway
company to require a twenty minute
service all day and all night up to mid
night and, as the Eighth ward delega-
ton would not entertain any COM
promise, the committee laid over the
resolution for further consideration.
The people residing in the Como avenue
district complain that they are obliged
to-hang on the hind ends of the Como
cars in the summer time, and that dur
ing the winter, when they have the line
to themselves, the service is made
OIlate.

ART DEALER ARRESTED.
"Berlin Art Company Methods
Called In Question.


Called I'm Question.
c. Michaels, manager of the ST. Paul
branch of the Berlin Art company, of
Minneapolis. was arrested at his studio,
413 Phoenix building, yesterday on the
charge of larceny. The complaint upon
which Michaels was arrested was iss-
ued at the instance of Mrs Julia Nc
kinzie, living on East Ninth street,
and. while it alleges the theft of pho
tograph valued at only so cents,
the police are determined to
fully investigate the case in
court, as, it is claimed, frequent
complaints have been made against the
concern on account of its methods of
doing business and likewise to set an
example to other portrait companies,
alleged to be operating upon the same
plan.
Mrs. Mckenzie claims that an agent
OF the company visited her house and
offered to enlarge any photograph
which she had free of charge for the
advertising which would result in the
neighborhood. She accordingly gave
the agent an old family photograph,
highly valued for it's associations. and
congratulated herself upon thus easily
securing a portrait of her relative In
a short time it is alleged that Michaels
visited Mrs. McKinzle and told her
that in order 10 procure the enlarged
picture 1t would be necessary for her
to purchase a frame from his firm
This she refused to do and Michaels
told her she could not then secure the
return of the original photograph. Mrs.
McKinzie took the matter before CITY
Attorney Darragh and Mr.. Darragh
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1896-10-21


notified Michaels to return the picture,
receiving In reply note from Michaels
to the effect that the Berlin Art COM
pany could transact it's business affairs
without Interference from the corpora
ton attorney. Attorney Darragh al
once had Michaels arrested on the
charge of larceny.
When arraigned in the municipal
court Michaels showed a contract
which, he claimed was Identical with
one signed by Mrs. Mckenzie, stating
that an enlarged portrait would be
made free of charge if the party to the
contract would agree to purchase a
frame from the Berlin company These
frames were to cost from 1926 upwards
and the portrait to be delivered when
half the cost of the frame had been
paid. Judge Twohy set the hearing of
the case for Thursday and placed
Michaels under a bond of SIS. which
was furnished.

visited upon her in it's review Of the
performance last Sunday night. Miss
Burt has beenidentified with the role
of Madge during the entire prosperous
career Of I'm Old Kentucky" and has
not only played 1t in all the principal
cities in this country with unques-
toned success, but also scored an I'M
mistakable hit in London, England,

fortune to win, to be told that my voice
has altogether the accent of a negro.
If that is true, isn't 1t equally strange
that not one of the hundreds of news

have heretofore commented upon my
performance, seems to have discovered
that I talk like a snegro?''s s.4

II tell my brother said Miss Burt,
that l am a rival of his. for he Is a
preacher. I believe that play that
does not teach some lesson is almost
an impossibility. The most encourag-
ing and pleasing experiences connect
ed with acting are the letters you re-
ceive from the appreciative men and
women whom your work has cheered
and benefited. do not get as many
letters since I have been playing
Madge, as 1 received when I appeared
as Jane in Blue Jeans Madge is
not SO gentle and sympathetic char
acter. 1t makes great physical de-
mands though, for Madge is a muscular
heroine. / have met with five acct

TAPPED THE WRONG BOTTLE.
Otto l.. Haese Took Muriatic Acid by
Mistake.


Mistake.
Attorney Otto L. Haese, who has an
office at room A. Court block, narrowly
escaped serious consequences yesterday
by mistakenly swallowing a dose of
muriatic acid. The prompt services
OF physician, however, eliminated the
ei1ment of danger and possibly saved
his life. According to Mr.. Haese's
story of the affair he went into a down
town drug store, where he is accustom-
ed to go behind the prescription case
and help himself to a particular brand
of rye Whiskey at about 1890. AS he
was preparing to pour himself drink
he noticed lady in the front part of
the store, and while looking at her took
from the shelf what he supposed to be
jar of his favorite potation. Still
intent upon his observance of the lady
he emptied a portion of the contents
of the jar which proved to be muriatic
acid, into q glass and drank the stuff.
Mr. Haese then left the drug store,
and meeting q friend with a horse and
buggy, drove around with him for about
twenty minutes but when he attempted
to alight in front of the Court block,
he found he could scarcely stand. He
was assisted to his office where DR..
Paxton was soon in attendance upon
him, and after the administration Of
out of danger. 1t is thought that Mr.
Haese must have taken the acid in it's
diluted form as the consequences of
drinking concentrated muriatic acid
would have been at once felt Late in
the afternoon Attorney Haese was so
far recovered as to be able to be about
his office, though still somewhat I'M
comfortable from his experience
Shortly after o'clock last evening
Mr.. Haese, who had remained in his Of
flee lying upon sofa, began to suffer
violent pains as result of the poison.
which he had taken and the police
were notified of his condition. 1t was
thought best to send him to the city
hospital, and the patrol wagon from the
central station conveyed him to the in
stltution. DR.. Ancker stated later that,
though Mr.. Haese was suffering a great
deal of pain, he did not consider his
condition alarming.

Frank Maska, youth of nineteen
years, was arraigned in the police court
yesterday charged with stealing shot
gun valued at $500 from E. C. Long,
of 1872 Summit avenue. Maska for
merly worked for Mr.. Long, and desir-
ing to become a Nimrod for a short
time one day, took the gun from the
attic Of the house According to his
story, he broke the gun and was
afraid to return it until repaired, and
likewise when he made up his mind to
have the gun fixed he feared discovery
in this direction. AS a consequence
the hunting piece was discovered to be
missing by Mr.. Long and Maska was
arrested. Mr.. Long told Judge Twohy
that he only desired the return of his
gun, and asked that Maska be allowed
to plead guilty to petty larceny. The
judge complied with his request and
sentenced the young man to the work
house for ninety days.

Numerous Forgeries Are Attributed
to a Hungry Man.
From the evidence collected yester-
day, Carl Larson, who was arrested the
previous day for passing a forged
check upon Joseph Levy the proprietor
Of clothing store at 40 East Sixth
street, has for a considerable length of
time been engaged in systematically
realizing upon fraudulent paper. When
his arrest became known several
merchants who have been victimized
by bogus checks. called at the central
police station and identified Larson as
the man who had swindled them out of
various amounts. James Nightingale,
of the Union Pacific Tea company, rec
ognized Larson as the person for whom
he cashed a worthless check for $11 on
Sept. IL, and d. A. Coates, manager of
a West side installment house, also
identified Larson as the man who swim
died him out of $26 on Oct. 5. A. J.
Johnson, Of 238 East Seventh street,
likewise recognized Larson for whom he
cashed check for $25 on May 1. While
1t is claimed that the evidence in hand
is sufficient to secure a conviction, the
police have in their possession a num-
Der Of bogus checks which have been
passed upon various merchants recent
ly upon which the signatures are said
to be identical with the writing upon
those found in the possession of Lar
son at the time of his arrest, and 1t is
thought almost certain that his concern
In these cases can also be established.
Larson is stone mason and lives
with his wife and family Of six children
at 401 Front street. He was visited at
the police station yesterday by his
eldest daughter, a girl Of about four
teen years of age, and his son, boy
Of seven years old. During the talk
with his children Larson completely
broke down and told them that he
would never be released from jail The
little boy tried to comfort his father
and said: You will get out all right,
papa, just pray to God. He will let you
out"
When arraigned in the police court
later in the day Larson admitted pass
ing some of the worthless paper, but
said he was forced to raise money some
way or see his family starve. His wife
is an invalid. Judge Twohy granted
Larson a continuance until tomorrow.
