St. Paul Elks goodbye this morning
when he left for home. After round of
pleasure in Minneapolis, Wednesday, the
Elks Of st. Paul lodge No. SO, with Sena-
tor Moses E. Clapp at their head, escorted
him to the other town yesterday, and gave
him a nice quiet time. He was first taken
by special trolley to Como park. where the
park superintendent gave him a whirl on
an automobile. Then the party visited the
Indian Mounds and Fort Smelling. On the
trip back to town they transferred to car
riages at Ramsey and Seventh streets,
and traversed Summit avenue and st. An
thony hill, returning finally to the Ryan
hotel
Mr.. Pickett was the guest of honor at
dinner at the Ryan, and in the evening he
presided over the Elks meeting. Mr..
Pickett spoke of ''The Good Of the Order" +"

ROBBED FOOTBALL MEN
Petty Thefts Traced to a Centra
High School Boy.

Members Of the Central high school
football team discovered yesterday the
identity of the thief who has been rifiing
the contents of their lockers in the Y. M.
c. A. gymnasium. The offender proved to
be a scholar at the high school whose
father is we'll known business man.
For some time past the boys have been
missing money and other articles from
their lockers, and yesterday afternoon a
member of the junior class team appeared
upon the field rugged out in a complete
football outfit which he had bought from
fellow student, and which proved to
have been stolen. The culprit was ques-
toned and finally admitted his guilt.
His father will be asked to make good
the amount taken by the boy and he may
be expelled from the school, but it is not
probable that legal proceedings will be
resorted to. The entire value of the stolen
articles amounts to considerable.

WILL APPEAL BORAX CASES
Rumberg and WagOnhOles Convicted
of Using Preservatiyes.

J. NJ. Rumberg and G. F. Wagonholes,
butchers, accused Of violating the state
dairy and food laws by using sulphurous
acid and borax in preserving meats for the
trade, were found guilty in municipal
court yesterday afternoon. The defense
tried to convince the court as to the un-
constitutionality of the act of the 1901
legislature, which prohibits the use of
these preservatives, but without avail.
1t was shown in the trial that borax and
sulphurous acid, while being effective
preservatives, destroyed the "high" taste
and color of meats unfit for consumption,
and made it practically impossible for
consumers to detect tainted goods.
1t is probable that an appeal will be
taken to the supreme court. About twenty
similar cases are pending against
butchers, grocers and other dealers, and
these have been continued until early in
January. 1t is believed that a ruling of
the supreme court will be received by that
time, and the parties have agreed to abide
by the decisions in the test cases Of Rum
berg and Wagonholes.

PAYING LICENSE FEES
Elevator Men Are Not Dis
posed to Fight.

Over hundred so-called private" ele-
vators have paid license fee and put
themselves under the authority of the rail-
read and warehouse commission. They
are elevators not on railroad land, but on
spur tracks or sidings, and according to
recent opinion of Attorney General
they are subject to state regulation
A legal battle was looked for, but has
not materialized. Not single owner has
shown a disposition to contest the matter
Henry Feig, supervising inspector Of ele-
vators, says that there are without doubt
many more elevators which should take
out licenses, and they will be looked up as
rapidly as possible. --A
The license fee is only 81. What the
elevator owners dislike about being
licensed is the necessity Of making reports
to the railroad and warehouse commission
