COMPLAIN OF BEING
TREATED UNFAIRLY
ProhibitfOnists Hold Mass Meeting
at Home of c. ID.
Snckett.

ProhibitOnists in considerable numbers
met last evening at the home of G. D..
Sackett, 629 Ottawa street, and discussed
the controversy now on in which their
practical disfranchisement is threatened.
The principal speaker Of the evening
was Rev. DR.. RAIDER Of the First NJ. Z.
church, and in his remarks he gave fit
ting rebuke to the element now at work
in an effort to prevent the party from
enjoying it's rights. He characterized the
whole thing as disgraceful and admon-
isEed the Prohibition workers to work
the harder to gain what was undeniably
their rights.
Included in the business of the evening
was the circulation Of an additional petit
ton for which a large number of sigma %
lures were secured. This petition viii

McCardy cannot shake the conviction of
the First warders that he is in a large
degree responsible for the attempt to
abandon the Cleveland high school. The
majority of the residents Of the First
ward came from a mother country fam

are as dear to them as any other class
of Americans. The attempt to rob their
children of the boon Of education rankles
deep and they will repay the, debt they

HEALTH BOARD ELECTS
OLD OFFICERS ARE RE-ELECTED
FOR ENSUING YEAR
Board Hears Reports From State
Veterinarian and State B#cteriO-
Iogist and Discusses Matters of
Organization Proposed Change
in Name of Marine Hospital.

At its regular meeting yesterday the
state board of health considered many
matters of Importance, listened to reports
from DR.. F. d. Brimhall, state veterin-
arian, and DR. f. z. Wesbrook, state
bacteriologist, and elected officers for the
ensuing year.
These reports had largely to do with
the general work of the organization in
the state. In the report of DR.. Wesbrook
it was noted that many cases of rabies
had been discovered in the country dis
trict among animals that had been bitten
by dogs afflicted with the disease. Some
recommendation were made as to how
the spread of the disease might be stop
ped.
DIR. Bracken also made a report to the
board and recommended strongly a
change in the name of the present Mar
inc hospital service to National health
service in accordance with a bill that
has just been introduced in congress. The
idea of the change was to unity the work
and make it more of a national organiza-
ton than it was at the present time.
AT the annual meeting of the board in
January the election of officers was post
poned, and the following were elected
yesterday to serve for the ensuing year.
DR.. f. Staples, of Winona, president; DR.
Henry Hutchinson, st. Paul, vice presi-
dent, both of whom were reelected. DR..
Bracken holds over for two years more
as secretary. An executive committee
was also elected, which consists of the
first three officers of the board, who are
members eX-officio, and Dr. NJ H. Rey-
nolds, of the experimental station at St
Anthony Park, and DR.. Edward Shumpik
Minneapolis, who will serve in that ca
pacity for the ensuing year.

The rooms presented a very brilliant

made very pretty picture 1t is the
custom at this annual affair of the
church for the guests to appear in fancy
costumes, and while they did not all do
so, some wearing full dress instead the
effect was more brilliant than at any of
the preceding years parties.

in his room. When Clarkin left his home
Monday evening he had 30 cents. He
spent cents for street car fare to visit
son, and when found dead he had 80 cents
on his person.
Coroner Miller has not yet decided
whether there will be an inquest or not.
When found there were two abrasions on
the face, as if the man had been struck.
Later developments, however, tend to
show that they were the result of his
fall. 1t is probable that Clarkin was
walking home when a blood vessel in
his head ruptured and he fell into the
pool of water. When discovered he had
but one leg in the puddle and his head
and body were leaning towards the side
walk as if Clarkin had staggered off the
walk and was attempting to regain it
when he died.
-Clarkin started from his home at
o'clock Monday to visit his son Joseph.
who is a molder in the American Hoist
and Derrick works. He found no person
at home, and returned. On the way he
met an old friend named Dwyer, with
whom he stayed until midnight. Dwyer
asked him to stay with him for the night,
but Clarkin refused and started for his
nome. This was the last seen Of him
until he was discovered dead by a boy in
the morning. The affair was reported to
the police and after some investigation
they came to the conclusion that the man
had died from natural causes Coroner
Miller will examine further into the case,
MIR. Clarkin was an old-time resident
of ST. Paul, having resided here for the
past forty years. He was we'll known to
the older generation, although he had
lived in retirement for a number of years.
A widow, four sons and five daughters
survive him. They are: Joseph, a rnoIder
at the American Hoist &, Derrick works:
Patrick mOlH4r of tho
John, an engineer and Cornelius, a truck
man on truck No. of the fire department.
The daughters are Mrs. T. F. Kelliher,
Mrs. c. A. Weber, Mrs. T. Twohy, Miss
Mary Clarkin and Miss Irene CIarkin.
Mr.. Clarkin was a brother to John
Clarkin, who is a retired retail business
man of this city an uncle to Fire Com
missioner Clarkin, and he was related to
many other prominent people of the city.

KNIGHTS OF FIDELITY.
Receives James Hay, Supreme Gran'
Commander.


St. Paul Lodge No. 5, Knights of FL
deity. last night entertained James Hay,
! Of Chicago, supreme valiant commander
of the order, at its hall, Sixth and WASH
ington streets, last night. Mr.. HAY ar
rived yesterday morning and was taken
for drive about the city yesterday al
ternoon by committee composed OF
Charles Jessrang, grand recorder; Joseph
Wagner, Edward Rohrbeck and w. Il.
Perkins. He was well pleased with the
sights of st. Paul and expressed a desire
to come back here SOON
At the meeting Of the lodge last night
speechers were made by Mr.. Hay, VIII
liam Hamm, A. J. Schweizer and Edward
Rohrbeck, Of st. Paul, and Frank G. Bon
lig and P. F. Martin, of Minneapolis. a.
l.. SchWeizer as valiant commander OF
the lodge and grand valiant commander
of the grand lodge Of Minnesota, presided.
Mr.. Hay delivered stirring address
and spoke on the subject of the necessity
of organization among the retail liquor
men of the country for the following rea-
sons: First-Ours is legitimate bust
ness from the fact that we are licensed
by the federal government and also by
the municipal government of our cities
and towns. They do not license anything
that it not legitimate. We are better
citizens than any other class of men from

federal and municipal government than
any other class of men,
Continuing Mr.. Hays said: ''The COM
mercial man pays taxes on his personal
property and his real estate. So do we as
soloon keepers, but besides this we pay
S25 for a federal license and our municipal
license, which ranges from $500 to 81, 500.
The retail liquor dealer is blamed for
great deal of the over-indulgence in
liquor throughout the land. Viewing this
from an unbiased standpoint, the retailer
is not to blame from the fact that the
men who come into his place of business
90 so OF their own accord to purchase the
merchandise which he has to SELL
True, there are some retail LIQUOR deal
ers who do not conduct respectable places
Of business, but these we are not respon-
sible for, from the fact that their record
must be clean before they are admitted TO
membership in our order In fact you
will find bad men in all classes OF busi-
ness"
In concluding Mr.. Hay said: During
the past year the growth OF the order has
been something phenomenal and today we
number about 10000 and are still increas-
ing. AT the present time lodges are being
organized from Montana, N the West, to
Massachusetts, in the East, and from
Minnesota, in the North, to Georgia, in

FRY WILL Be PLENTIFUL
FULLERTON THINKS PIKE WILL
BE UNUSUALLY NUMEROUS
Cold weather Has Hindered Prog
ress OF WoriN-AIsO Interferes
With Trout Fishers, VINO Find
Few Bites at Present.

State Executive Agent Sam Fullerton
returned yesterday from Otter Tail lake,
where he has been making arrangements
to secure pike eggs for distribution to the
lakes Of the state. Owing to the cold
weather, the spawning season has been
delayed, but Mr.. Fullerton says the out
look is very propitious for securing a
large number of eggs. He says the
chances are good for securing sufficient
10 almost supply the demand, which is
a rather unusual thing. Mr. Fullerton
says that there is very little trout fish
ing being done ON account of the cold
weather, which makes it practically a
vain pursuit.
Notwithstanding the cold weather, how
ever, many of the more Venturesome
fishermen are persistently holding forth
in the neighborhood of Sparta, Wis
which is the Jumping off, place from
which the best trout fishing in Wiscon-
sin is reached. In every direction with
in an hours drive are cold, clear, rapid
streams, fed by springs which gush forth
in the bluff aud highlands and como
tUmblng- down through forests and
meadows, and form a succession of rapids
and miniature falls, eddies and occasional
ly broadening into deep, dark pools over
hung by bushes, making an ideal home
for the Speckled and rainbow trout.
Many of the Minnesota sportsmen who
went to Sparta soon came away disap-
pointed, although several catches of 3s
high as three pounds were reported.
Speciled trout are the shyest of the game
fish, and a thorough knowledge of their
habits is necessary to become a success
full follower of the sport. Weather con-
ditons, the bait to use at certain times
stage of water, and many other things
have to be taken into consideration. Many
beginners, therefore, become discoura ged
at their small success.
Speckled trout Weighing as high as five
pounds have been taken about Sparta, but,
of course, are exceptional catches. Two
and three Founders, however, are not
rare. They average from one-fourth to
one pound The rainbow variety grow
larger, frequently being as heavy as ten
pounds. For years Minnesota sportsmen
have made Sparta their rendezvous, ard
an immense number of fish have been
annually taken from the streams, but
reports this season are to the effect that
the fishing is as good as it was twenty
years ago. Apparently the supply does not
diminish.
Laws recently passed in Wisconsin and
In Minnesota prohibiting the sale the sale
end shipment of trout have greatly benz
hted the fishing. Before these laws were
passed trout by the tubful could daily
be seen in the meat markets for sale and
shipment, the greater part of it having
been unlawfully taken with nets Now
fishing for market has become so unprof-
liable that it has been practically aban-

STATE INVESTS MONEY
100000 OF PERMANENT SCHOOL
FUND IN MASSACHUSETTS, BONDS
VIII Yield over $4,000 Annually
and Run Forty Years-Inves tnlent
Considered One of the Rest Ever
Made by the State.

Two hundred thousand dollars of the
states permanent school fund was yes
terday invested in Massachusetts bonds
by the state board Of investment. At
the meeting of the board bids from nine
firms were opened. There were eighteen
different propositions contained in the
bids, and the board accepted the bid Of
FaIson, Leach & Co, of New York city
on Massachusetts, bonds, bearing interest
at 3C5 per cent, which will yield the
state over S., 0C0 per year The bonds Will
not mature until 1912
The investment is considered an IN
usually good one. State Auditor Dunn
selected tho bid as soon as the bids We're
all opened and declared that it was the
best offer the board ever received since
he had served on it. Treasurer Block
thought so too. Massachusetts bonds are
considered the best and safest invest
ment outside Of government bonds. Min
nesota already has about $1,000 600 worth
of Massachusetts bonds.
The eighteen different propositions
made by bidders included the bonds Of
Massachusetts, Louisiana, Tennessee,
North Dakota, Texas and New York
An offer on Louisiana bonds was in some
respects better than the one accepted
but it only ran twelve years, maturing liz
1854, where the other bonds run forty
years.
The bids were received under the cOndi-
TORS CT q resolution of State Auditor
Dunn, introduced at the last meeting Of
the board. The resolution provided that
all bids received in the future should be
received as sealed proposals, made on
blanks furnished by the state treasurer,
containing every definite statement that
the bidder desired to make. On several
previous occasions bidders had stirred up
some controversy by offering TO cltange
their bids after they were opened.
The board is unusually pleased at It's
successful investment. State Treasurer
Block said he considered it a splendid
%..siness for the state in every respect.
1t was a really better bid than the board

Coroner Miller was called and decided that
his death was due to a rupture of a blood
vessel of the brain.
At first there were circumstances which
pointed towards foul play, but later on it
developed that Clarkin had suffered from
a rupture for several years and that his
death was probably due to natural causes.
1t was first supposed that he had been
killed by fOotpads, as a valuable gold
watch which Clarkin had worn for years
was missing. Later the watch was found
