HOUSE FULL OF PLUMBER
1T is FOUND THROUGH THE Ar
REST OF THEO. HARIG.

Following the sentencing of Theodore
Harig, yard clerk in the employ of the
Great Northern road, to the workhouse
for ninety days, yesterday, on tie charge
of larceny, Detectives Sweeney and DAILY
visited the prisoners home, &c Hatch
street, and turned up what is claimed to
be one of the biggest plants" uncovered
by the police In some time. The recov-
cred property, which completely filled the
patrol wagon, was taken to the cen raj
station. The detectives found Mrs. Mag
gle Cook, said to be Harig's housekeeper,
and Homer Gibbs, a sixteen year-oid boy,
at the house, and also arrested them.
Both are charged with grand larceny.
The property recovered is said by he
police to represent stealing from f. eight
cars extending over considerable lime.
The arrest of Harig grew out Of susptc-
ions that became directed toward him in
connection with the disappearance of ar
tcles from freight cars in the Como ave-
nue. yards. The stealing has b en- go ng
on for some time, 1t is alleged, and final
ly trap was set. Tuesday night Special
Officer Dooley claimed to have discovered
evidence against Harig and arrested nm.
lnVeStiga ton after the arrest led to the
issuance of e search warrant, armed with
which Detectives Sweeney and DAILY went
through Harigs home yesterday and
found the confscated property. Among
the articles recovered were two single
barreled shotguns and a double-barreled
shotgun, all new, a box of dry goods, a
box of tools, trunk full of lace cur
tains and silks, bag Of lace thread,
box of starch, a guitar, two mems BIZ
cycles, two women's bicycles, a roll OF
oilcloth, a satchel, a box of soap, q box
of matches, bag of rice, three packages
of dried fruits, an oil stove bundle Of
clothing and box of shoe strings.
Chief of Detectives McIntire is highly
pleased over the discovery of the plant"
and compliments Detectives Sweeney and
DAILY on their work. The property is
roughly valued at $500.

ALL But A KISSING BUG
THEY ARE DISCUSSED IN LUGGER'S
BEETLE BULLETIN.

In late bulletin Prof. Lugger, the
state entomologist, discusses the beetles
destructive to fruit-producing plants.
He says that in Minnesota there can be
no difficulty in Identifying beetles by this
general description:
They possess a pair of horny wing
covers called elyrra, Which meet on the
back in straight line; that IS, do not
overlap; and beneath these horny organs
are the true wings, composed of more or
less delicate membranes. The mouth
parts are formed for biting, not for suck
ing. The metamorphOsis is complete, or,
in other words, the different stages do
not resemble each other, and the pupa
IS inactive, neither moving about nor
taking food. Some of the beetles, Mr.
Lugger explains, have more or less cult
waited musical tastes, and the tiger beetle,
which burrows in the trees, will come TO
the entrance of its pit if some one sings
into the hole, although there is a question
whether his observation is to be attrib-
uted to a wish to be entertained or to
make mincemeat Of the prospective In
truder.
One beetle which is really the friend of
the farm is the Caterpillar hunter"
popularity known, alias calosoma scruta-
tor. Its wings are metallic green, mar
gined with reddish, and the rest of the
Oouy IS beautifully marked IN violet, blue,
gold, green and copper. 1t climbs trees
in search of the caterpillars, and, catch
ing one of the hairy worms, brushes 1t
and sucks out its life blood
Then there is a bombardlng beetle,
which Prof. Lugger says is about the
only beetle that has not been sent to the
entomologist with the suggestion that it
is an automatically captured kissing
bug" 1t is equipped with sac Of fluid
for protection from its enemies, which en-
titles it to the place among insects held
among quadrupeds by the skunk.
Then there are the lady bugs, some Of
which eat the San Jose scale, so dreaded
by the Minnesota nurserymen.

NOT Al MAY ELECTION.
CHARTER WILL PROBABLY NOT BE
READY THEN.

The question Of whether the new char
ter would be ready for submission to the
voters at the coming election was dis
cussed informally by the charter commits
sion last evening. There are about half
q dozen chapters which are yet to be re-
ported in the new draft, but none of the
chapters adopted have been considered by
the revision committee. The revision
committee Is made up of the lawyers
who are members, and Commissioner
Childs stated last evening that, IN his
opinion, it would be simply impossible to
finish the charter, have 1t revised and
ready for submission at the coming cleo
ton. Commissioner Taylor suggested.
that the revision committee, by holding
meetings daily, commencing Monday aft
ernoon, could do the work allotted to 1t
and have the charter ready in time. The
attendance was so small, however, that
the question was not formally discussed.
Present were Messrs. Flandrau, AL
brecht, Taylor, Childs. OBrien, Smith
and Zimmerman. The chapter on assess
ments for local improvements was taken
up and about half Of the sections adopted
One Of the important changes made Is
that which provides that the construction
and reconstruction of sidewalks shall be
only on a petition signed by the property
owners. Under the present charter the
council can arbitrarily order a sidewalk
reconstructed and the abuse of this
prompted the commission to make the
change. City Engineer Claussen wanted
the new charter to give the engineering
department the power to relay walks
where needed, but the commission did
not agree with him. The section provid-
Ing for assessments for improvements
was changed so as to provide for the
laying OF assessments on the property
benefited, and the clause about frontage
a-c
Ing, repaving or matchmaking of street
intersections, under the new charter, may
be paid out of the general fund If the
council deems 1t expedient The con-
struction, reconstruction and mainte-
nance of crosswalks Is also to be paid
from the general fund.
At the meeting tomorrow evening the.
chapters on public library and salaries
will be taken up after the chapter on
assessments has been disposed Of
