MOI A SUICIDE
Joe Owens Took Pills Not Deadly
Poison.

Morning papers yesterday sought to ex-
plot Joe Owens, colored, in the role of a
heartsick suicide. The story ran that
Owens, upon a return trip from the Pacific
coast made a call upon his wife She,
grown cold in his absence, refused to see
him or have anything to- do with him.
Then, embittered at his misfortune,
Owens, so ran the tale, procured large
quantities of deadly poison, consumed the
same and lay down to die.
However, Owens will not .stand for
such an untimely end. He is an old sol
dier-one of the men that stormed the
heights of San Juan. Why should he quit
this earth because of little domestic
disturbance? Never. Owens says that he
was i'll at the time and took patent medi-
cine to relieve his pain. Violent pains en-
sued. In an hour he was all right.

RESORT PRopR1EroRs FLEE
Fearing Indictment They Leave the
City Temporarily.


Notified by the police that tAey need
not appear in the municipal court this
month. and fearing indictment at the
hands Of the grand jury, the proprietors
of many of the resorts OF the tenderloin
have fed the city. Friday all of the
houses of the red light district were
dark, and Saturday the proprietors were
nowhere to be found. The finding of a
true bill by the grand jury and convic-
tion in the district court means a fine Of
$1,000 with an alternative of doing time
at Saltwater. None of the madams wished
to stay within reach of the sheriff s
office and face the music.
When the grand jury has finished it's de-
liberations, all will probably be back
again, and hereafter, if the sheriff keeps
fines in Minneapolis will be displaced by
8 system calling for the same fine every
two months.
Mayor Ames' Ideal.
The regulation Of the social evil is
strictly a police prerogative, Mayor
Ames says. He has been seeking light
from other cities, and has made up his
mind that the Minneapolis resorts are
taxed too high. The present tax is di-
rect encourager of crime on the part of
the inmates of such places, he reasons.
Fifty dollars a month, he figures, is about
the right thing. He declares that it is
a dirty piece of work on the part of the
sheriff to meddle in matters that belong
exclusively to the police department. AS
for the opinion Of the municipal court,
he doesn't care a straw. 1t does not con-
cern the court in the least, he holds, and
he will take no suggestion from it nor
submit to any amendment to his program.

IS STILL At WORK
Grand Jury Continues Investigation
of City Administration.
MYRoN JOHNSON TELLS HIS TALE
He and Other witnesses Give Direct
Evidence-City Hospital Man
agement Considered.

Notwithstanding the confident assertion
of the administration organ that the sit
ting grand jury had been unable to Sc
cure anything relating 10 the evils OF
municipal administration save hearsay
evidence, the jury pursues its way, and
the subjects which it is investigating are
the very ones which the administration
champions say have been passed over with
out definite result.
The Indications are that the jury has
considerable work yet to do along that
line and that it will take plenty OF time
in doing so and reach a conclusion of it's
own, regardless Of the wishes of inter
ested parties
In police circles Sunday the chief topic
of conversation was the grand jury and
its doings and the consensus of opinion
was that police officials. with one notable
exception, would be entirely exonerated
from the charges which have been so freely
made. This opinion was based upon
tip given out with all the appearance
OF authority and there was general feel
ing of confidence and security evident
among the minor lights of the admins
tration.

Charges have been made before the jury
involving the business methods OF the last
board of county commissioners, against
whom it is alleged that there were ques-
tionable practices in connection with the
purchase of supplies. 1t is rumored that
one of the members of the board was di-
rectly concerned in supplying some OF the
contracts which were let.
Another matter which the jury has had
called to its attention and which has been
investigated somewhat already, is the con-
duct of affairs at the city hospital. 1t is
