NO GASOLINE FOR LIGHTING.
Oil Inspector FOOte Rules 1t Out of
the ,arcsIIOn

State Oil Inspector Hy Foote has
made an important ruling regarding
the use of the new gasoline iIlumin-
ant that are coming into use in other
states. Mr.. Foote declared that he
law Of he state of Minnesota expressly
forblds the use Of gasoline in any form,
as an illuminant, indoors. He does
not criticize the lamp in question. and
says that 1T is as safe as the best gaso-
line stove, but it is a question, not Of
as an illuminant, indoors. He does
following section from the general state
laws governing Illuminating oils:
Sec. o. No person, firm or corpora
ton shall knowingly sell or offer for
sale or knowingly use in this state any
kerosene or coal oils or any products
thereof which by reason of aduItera-
ton or for any other reason will at a
temperature Of 120 degrees Fahrenheit
ignite and burn. Provided, that the
quantity used for test shall not be less
than one-half pint. And provided
further, that the gas or vapor from
said oils may be used for illuminating
purposes when the oils from which said
gas or vapor is generated are contained
in reservoirs outside Of the building
Illuminated by such gas. and that an
oil which will ignite and burn at low
er tempera ture than 120 degrees Fab
renheit may be sold and used for fuel
purposes. Any person violating the
provisions Of this section shall be
deemed guilty Of a misdemeanor and
shall, upon conviction, be punished by
imprisonment in the county Jail not
more than one year, or by fine not
exceeding $500, or both fine and impris-
onment in the discretion of the court
The insurance agents who have been
seen by Mr.. Foote in connection with
the attempted introduction of these
burners inc this state are unanimous In
saying hat they are decidedly opposed
to their use. Mr.. Foote is backed up
in his ruling by the attorney general,
and has notified his deputies through
out the state that they are not to per-
NIT the use of the gasoline lamps. AS
far as Mr.. Foote knows this is the only
state that has has such ample protec,
ton against the possible dangers of
gasoline.

John Kendrick Bangs is a hunorfst
who represents the most refined tyne
OF American hurfor. BY virtue of his ac-
kEow1edged talent in that department
of literature, he has had charge of the
humorous portions Of the HARPER pub
hcatlons for number of years past
He is also known as the writer of a
number of stories for. children, and has
written travesties and farces, but is
best known, perhaps, through his little
book, Coffee and Repartee"
"Chimnie Fadfen" established the
fame Of Edward W. Townsend. The
slang and cant and manner of life Of
the Bowery will be very delightful in
dialect as read by the man who has
reduced it to type.
Mrs Ruth McEnery Stuart is another
woman from the South who has at
tanned fame through her pen. She
writes much for the magazines, and her
books, "a Golden Wedding "Carlot-
ta's Intended and others are familiar
current literature.
The return of James Whitcomb RI
ley, after an absence of three years,
will be hailed by his enthusiastic adj
mirers, who stoutly maintain that the
Hoosfer poet is as great an interpreter
of nature and humble life as Robert
Burns Riley's delightful Hoosier dia-
lect, which is so true that in reading
it one never dreams of an effort on the
part Of the writer, is genuinely Ameri-

Miss Lillian Bell Is brilliant young
woman, who, thanks to the severe crit
fcism Of a devoted mother, has devel-
oped a most admirable style of writ

MURDER AND INSURANCE.
Keddish's Relatives VIII Accept
One-Tenth Payment.


Theo w. Reddish, Of Cleveland. O.,
has been visiting the city for g. few
days on an GRAND which recalls the
murder of his brother, James E. Red
dish, at Whitehall, Mont, in April last
James had a policy for $1,000 in the
Railway Officials and Employees Ac-
c1dent association. The murdered man,
a. bridge carpenter was last seen alive
April 70. He had drawn his pay that
day. and soon after it was noticed that
he had disappeared. Five days later
his dead body was found by farmer
In clump of wild rose bushes near
the railroad track. An investigation
by the authorities showed plainly that
he had been murdered, and the murder
was charged to man named White,
who had been a companion of his.
The insurance company was prompt
ly notified Of the death by Henry Red
dish, of Cambridge, Pa, father Of the
murdered man, in whose favor the
policy had been taken out. The COM
pany denied any liability, claiming
that the dead man had lapsed in his
payments, and the policy was therefore
void.
The father, however, had possession
OF letter written to the son ON April
70, the day he was last seen alive,
notifying him that they had forwarded
blank injury notice, in response to a
letter from him stating that he had
been injured a few days previous and
was laid off. Information was re-
Ceived from the assistant auditor of the
road showing that Mr.. Reddish had
signed an order for payment OF the
dues to the insurance company, eX-
planning the method of payment The
letter proved that the murdered man
had complied with the rules, and that
his policy was in good standing
This was in July. In the meantime
the company had received another in
stallment of the pay as required by
the rules, and refused to accept it, but
after being shown the proof that the
policy should be in good standing, the
company offered to settle for 500,
claiming that a clause in the policy
provided that if the holder was killed
by the willful act Of another, he was
entitled to but tenth of the amount
called for
Mr.. Reddish has been informed by
attorneys here that the clause in the
policy allowing but one-tenth Of its
face, in case the holder is killed or in
tured by the wflIful act of another, is
valid, so he will accept the 800.

WHY WAS BROOKS HEIDI
His Hebrew Friends Say That He Is
Persecuted.

Local Hebrew circles are conSidera-
bly, stirred up over what they term
queer proceedings in the police court
in connection with the cases Of Isaac
Kaplin, Samuel Brooks, Jacob Luntz
and Herman Pferman. the men ac-
cused Of stealing $4,000 worth of ma
chinery from a deserted rolling mill
near Irondale. The men were arrested
in Minneapolis at the instance Of Jacob
Goldman and held. there until infOrma-
ton was lodged against them in Ram
sey county by Goldman and then
brought to st. Paul and locked up in
the county Jail. Developments since
the arrest are said to have established
the fact that the accused men had lit
tie or nothing to do with the alleged
theft. and, in any event, were only
concerned in the disposal Of 200 pounds
of the alleged stolen property, which
they claim to have bought from the
Waterman employed by Harris Broth
ers the owners, of the mill, to look
after their property.
The Hebrews, who are indignant
over the treatment accorded their coun-
trymen, assert that when the true con-
ditions in connection with the diSap-
pearance of the machinery were dis
closed, an effort was at once made
by Goldman to protect himself and
the Harris Brothers against a. civil &C

attempting to coerce the prisoners into
signing document releasing them
from liability while they were in GUS

per in the county Jail and a third is
said to have affixed his signature in
Goldman's Office, but Brooks refused
to waive his rights, and when the
quartette was arraigned in the police
court Thursday, all of the men were
released on their recogniZance except
Brooks. F. Aronson, a cattle dealer
Of Minneapolis, furnished $500 bonds
for Brooks, however, and he was also
released. When he reached home, after
nearly week imprisonment, he found
his horse had died Of starvation, while
his wife and children, it is said, were
also weakened and sick from want of
food. Goldman is said to possess a
strong pull among the Hebrews in Min

influence to intimidate Brooks bonds

him over to the sheriff Brooks was
willing to return to Jail, but his friends
have taken the matter up and propose
to get back at those who, they claim,
have been prosecuting him. They are
very OutSpOken also in asserting that
certain officials have been working in
Goldman's interests to get Brooks to
sign the release, and that his being
placed under bonds when the other
men were allowed to go on their own
recognizance, was manipulation of

AT THE TOWN AND COUNTRY.
New Years Festivities Include Din
ncrs and Turkey Shoots.

1t was intended that New Years day
should be appropriately celebrated at
the Town and Country club, but owing
partly to the bad condition of the roads
and the disagreeable weather, the at
tendance at the place was rather slim.
The leading event of the afternoon was
the turkey shoot, for which there were
perhaps dozen competitors from St.
Paul and Minneapolis. The birds were
placed in crates and the marksman
making the most hits won the game
and turkey. After a couple of hours
shooting w. P. Trowbridge, of this
city, was declared the winner, having
two birds to his credit, while Charles
d. Velie. of Minneapolis, was next
with a single trophy. The shooting
was done at so yards
