At meeting of the Minneapolis Retail
Grocers' association and their friends last
night at Columbus hall, 322 Nicollet ave-
nue., the secretary of the local association,
j. S. Taylor, advocated that the grocers'
association take decided stand In poll
tics and to see that men favorable to the
grocers' interests be elected to the leg
islature this fall. His remarks were
heartily seconded by those present
1.-The grocers represent directly and in
directly 25 per cent of the total vote In
this city," said Mr. Taylor "This at
first seems improbable, but investigation
will prove my statement true.
1.-THE grocers should show that they
are political power in this city and this
they can do IL they will stand and work
together. Men should be elected that are
business men, men who will support our
measures through both the house and
senate, and I might also say also other
business interests. We can elect men
that we want If we stand together. Find
out how men running for nominations Of
your. respective parties stand on these
question affecting our interests"
John Powell. director in the Minneap-
oils association, and Charles Menerly

TOOK ROUGH ON RATS.
ROY BARNES GARDNER, DE-
sPoNDENT AND HOMELESS,
COMMITS SUICIDE
WRITES LETTER BEFORE
TAKING DEADLY POTION
Gives Instructions AS to Where He
Wishes to Be Buried-He Says That
His Mother Committed Suicide in the
Same Manner Seven Years Ago.

Roy Barnes Gardner, twenty years of
age homeless, respondent and out of
money, entered the Glasgow hotel, S9
Washington avenue south, about IL
o'clock Sunday night, and was discov-
cred yesterday morning about IL o'clock
lying on the bed, half dressed, cold In
death.
His body was In a distorted condi-
ton and showed that he died in great
agony. When he entered the hotel the
clerk took him up to the room he COM
menced vomiting, and when asked as
to the cause, he told the clerk that he
had eaten something which did not
agree with him. The clerk left him
and thought nothing further of the
matter.
His Last Statement.
On the table In the room he had writ
ten a letter in a scrawling hand, which
reads as follows:
Dear Sir: This is to whoever finds
my body, and I hope that it will be
cold when found. My name Is Roy
Barnes Gardner. I am nineteen years
and would be twenty Sept. /. 1 am
q painter and work for f. W. Fink,
1929 Lake street. I want to be buried
beside my mother, Mrs. A. r. McIrvine.
She took rough on rats seven years
ago, the same as will take. The GEM
etery is across the bridge, but I don't
remember the name of it. don't sup
pose yol will care much as long as
have no home nor money. If I was
fich maybe you would bury me beside
my mother. But goodbye to one and
all"
1t is apparent that Gardner was Ia
boring under somewhat Of a mental
Strain, as he had tried to erase part of
the letter and wrote instead, on an
other sheet of paEer: II want to be
buried in Blooming Prairie Mr.. ST.
mons adopted me and raised me. He
put me in the hands of Rev. s. D. Muir
Fay, Blooming Prairie"
Tie coroner was called to the hotel
about noon, and 1t was his opinion
that Gardner had been dead several
hours. He gave every evidence of
ktrychnine poisoning, having died In
Eonyulsions.

esty Kamehameha w., impressed with
the. necessity OF some action to induce
his people to adopt more generally the
rational care and curative methods OF
the foreigners in combating the Nari'
Gus ailments to which flesh Is heir,
conceived the thought of establishing
. general hospital at Honolulu and I'm
pressing upon and giving opportunity
to the Hawaiians to obtain the bene'
fits to be derived from such an institu.
ton.
A temporary hospital and dispense.
ry was established. but to accomplish
his main object, the King himself went
from house to house among the bust
ness portion of the community, book
in hand, to solicit subscriptions. As
has ever been the case with the Homo
lulu public. a plea Of this nature met
with prompt response, all the more
prompt and liberal, perhaps, because
of the earnest and manly plea of the
Royal solicitor. Funds rapidly accu.
mulated and in July, 1860, all was rea.
dy for the laying of the corner st0he
Of what His Majesty designated as
the Queens Hospital" in honor Of
his much loved and gentle consort,
Queen Emma.
As Jealous Mason he determined
that the impressive service OF our or.

laying the foundaliOJ stone of an edi'
fee for the general and lasting benefit
Of the sick and suffering people OF his
kingdom and race.
