Ice Yacht Bug Bites F. h. Peavey

There was one lone sail on the icy ex-
panse of Minnetonka yesterday The
bold navigator seemed to be enjoying
himself immensely and guided his fast
flying craft into the far reaches Of the
big lake with a steady hand that be-
spoke the practiced mariner
The wind blew hard from the sou'-sou'-
wes' and the daring sailor took particu-
lar delight in beating to windward until
he had worked we'll down Excelsior way
when he would come about and go tear
ing flown the line in a 1ve-mile run
toward Wayzata at a rate Of speed that
would put the Empire state express to
shame Then he would swing his helm
to starboard and jibe his craft with a
confidence in the ability Of the mast to
stand the strain that would give a less
courageous yachtsman heart disease, and
with several hundred square feet of can
vas belIying above him, smash away to
Crystal bay.
His extraordinary exploits attracted
the attention Of the cottagers who dared
not venture out of doors in face of the
blast. They looked on with wondering
eyes and asked each other who the ven
turesome skipper could be.
It was not until noon that the identity
of the mysterious ice sailor was estab-
lished. That was when he raced into ST.
Louis bay across the wind and by deft
twist Of the helm brought the yacht to
an abrupt standstill at the clubhouse
A great fur coat which eneveloped him

TO AVOID C0NTAGION
City Hall Room May BE Used for
Smallpox Suspects

The council committee on public grounds
and buildings is due to lock horns with
the police department next week
1t Is planned now to introduce a motion
at Friday nights meeting of the council
calling attention to the present practice
of bringing persons afflicted with small
pox into the city hall and up to the health
department on the fourth floor, and in
structing the committee to proceed forth
with to eject the police department from
the room at the north end Of the building
in order to set it aside for the reception
Of smallpox suspects.
The police department took possession
Of the room in question Immediately after
the fire department moved out. Posses
sion was taken without leave from the
council committee on public grounds and
buildings.
The committee intended the room for
another purpose, but after sputtering
around bit accepted the inevitable
meekly.
It is now proposed to stiffen the back
bones of the committee members with a
council resolution, and 1t Is expected that
then something will happen.
Yesterday afternoon one person suffer-
ing from smallpox and two suspects were
piloted up to the health DEPARTMENT. 8
quarters via the elevator
1t just happened that while they were
there the health committee of the council
showed up. They took alarm at once and
Alderman Chatfield barred his arm right on
the spot to the vaccination expert Of the
department.
officials OF the building later dropped in
to put in their little protests against the
practice, and now it is promised that
something will be done to better condi-
tions.

DRAFTS CAME BACK
Confidence in ''F. Ziegler, New
Orleans" Was Misplaced.
MINNEAPOLIS CLUB MEN BITTER
He Was Smooth Tallxer and APP
peared Familiar With Busi-
ness Conditions.

''Black hair, eyes and moustache, slim OF
build. feet in height, dressed in
ordinary black business suit, easy talker
and business like is the description Of a
man who was in the city Nov. IL and u,
ostensibly F. Ziegler by name, from the
city of New Orleans. Mr.. Ziegler visited
the Piusbury- Washburn Touring mills
here and made arrangements to have -four,
breakfast foods, etc, sent to him. He
made such a strong talk that samples
were shipped to the wholesale firm Of
Schmidt Ziegler, of which firm he rep
resented himself as a member. Going to
Minneapolis sugar broker, he stated that
he was able to send all the sugar to Min
neapolis that the broker wanted, and Incl
dentally knocked sugar off eight points for
two or three days.
Ziegler's next effort was the master
stroke of the two days stay in the CITY,
To a wholesale grocery firm which had
dealings with Schmidt & Ziegler, he eX-
hibite ed such an intimate acquaintance with
the firms business that a young member
Of the grocery concern, impelled with a
desire to show Minneapolis appreciation
Of southern hospitality, introduce dhim at
the Minneapolis Club to two or three
members. On the following day one Of
the clubmen cashed a draft for 500 made
by Ziegler through local bank. week
later the draft was returned with state
ment that no such signature was known.
The young man who made the introduction
promptly made good the 500 and admitted
that he had been a little careless, but
that Ziegler was in haste to get home,
and as long as Minneapolis men had re-
ceived much hospitality at the hands of
New Orleans, it was due one Of that city
to receive corresponding favors here.
To make his position the stronger, the
stranger asked to be referred to jewelry
store Among the names mentioned he
selected that of ]. B. Hudson. He ordered
$500 worth of jewelry in the shape of two
diamond rings and handsome scarf pin,
and reported to two or three business
men that he had purchased goods at Hud-
sons. On inquiry it developed that he
had left draft for the amount with the
understanding that he would later send
measurements for the rings and would ex-
pect shipment Of the goods as soon as re-
turns were received on the draft by Mr..
Hudson. This draft also came back.
The New Orleans firm reports that the
man IS unknown to them. 1t is not known
that any others were gulled in Minneapo-
lis, but the trail leads to Oshkosh, where
he left a draft for 800 and it is UNDER
stood that Chicago and St Louis were
fields Of fortune to the adventurer. With
his address and his knowledge of the mat
ters on which he talked he could have
secured more money in Minneapolis. but
he appeared to stick at round hundred.

CORONER in CHARGE
DR.. Williams Appears as High
Sheriff of Hennepin.
NEW STAFF OF DEPUTIES NAMED
Question: Does DIR. williams Serve
Until Another Sheriff Has
Been EIected4

Coroner Williams took charge of the
sheriff's Office at an early hour yesterday
and from now until Sheriff Megaarden
has been either removed by the governor
or reinstated. all documents emanatlng
from that Office will bear the signature
of ~. G. Williams, coroner, acting sherlH
of HenneDin county" There will be no
deputy sherlffs for some time, only deputy
coroners, and they will serve papers, take
charge of the jail and act as bailiffs in
the courtrooms.
Gordon r. Bright will be the chief of
the deputies and Otto Langum will have
charge of the books. The others who VIII
replace Megaarden's appointees are Alex
ander Ferguson, George Delyin and
George A. 10th, who have been serving
papers for the coroner since the governor
suspended the sheriff.
OF the old force commissioned as deputy
coroners are Algate Anderson, Alton r.
Woodcock, Frank c. Johnson, Adoniram
j. Wright and John H. Alexander. The
latter Will have charge of the jail. all
the above took their oath of otIice this
morning before Lewis c. Gjertsen, notary
public. 1t is possible that some more
will be added, but as court has practically
adjourned for the Christmas holidays, the
courtroom bailiffs will not be needed.
A Question of Succession.
1t is not likely that there will be any
controversy regarding the right of Coro-
ner Williams to act as sheriff. Some
authorities contend that the county com
missionerS should proceed at once to elect
a sheriff, a vacancy having been created
by the suspension of Sheriff Megaarden.
The commissioners are doubtless eager to
proceed to an election, but they have
taken legal advice themselves and are sat
icdAd "a
a vacancy" and they will not act until
Megaarden is officially removed. Until
dehnittve action by the governor the
county will recognize Dr. Williams as the
acting sheriff.
Another pretty legal question may be
raised at that time, however. The statutes
relating to the office of coroner say that
he shall perform the duties of sheriff,
while the latter is unable to discharge,
and shall serve until another sheriff is
elected.
Some argue that elected" means at a
general election, and that the county
commissioners have no authority to elect,
but many simply fill various county Offices
by appointment.
But whether they appoint or elect
the county commissioners declare that
they will fill the Office of sheriff with a
man of their own choosing in case Gov
ernor Van SAINT officially decapitates
Sheriff Megaarden.
There is as yet no disposition to dis
pute DR.. Williams right to collect fees
as both coroner and sheriff. All his Off
cial acts are those of coroner, and he is
| believed TO be entitled to all the fees.
He draws no salary as coroner, and the
| rule that no one in public Office can draw
two salaries does not apply.
Mr.. Megaarden is completely out OF
the sheriffs Office, and has had all his
books removed to his old law Office in the
! Phoenix block.
