tinually in his work as bank examiner,

Tennis Enthusiasts Mt MinnetOnka
Turn Out at Deephaven.
The last two days of sunshine have
brought the turf tennis courts at Deep
haven into state of perfection. There are
now six courts in all; two out of the six

weather Of last week, but they are now
again in f1rst-class condition. The other
four courts are 50 situated as to be good
under any conditions of weather, rain OF
shine, and one can play on turf courts
after a rain storm much quicker than or
clay courts.
The principal courts are on the lake
shore between No. 9 tee and No. 8 greer
Of the Minnetonka golf links. They have
been in constant use oil the spring. The
reserve courts are on the fair green OF

his WHITE WINGS" SUIT SPOILED
He Was Used to Dodging Teams
but Automobiles Were
at Different.

Swan Johnson. who sweeps the streets
at Nicollet avenue and Fourth street, has
the honor of being the first man in the
city to be knocked down by an automobile.
Instead of feeling flattered over his dis
tinction he Is decidedly enraged over the
carelessness of the chauffeur. Although
he was not seriously injured by the ac-
oident, yet he keeps keen lookout for the
man and, should he be fortunate enough
to find him, the matter will be aired in
the municipal court.
The accident occurred at busy hour
on the corner. Johnson was pushing his
wheeled scoop up Nicollet avenue unmtnd-
full of any danger. Suddenly without

warning, a runabout propelled at a high
rate of speed. dashed around the corner
from Fourth street and struck him. The
force Of the collision knocked Johnson
aside and the wheels of the automobile
ran over tho scoop and smashed it. Be-
fore the badly frightened street sweeper
could regain his feet, the machine was
dashing up Nicollet avenue far beyond
his reach.
When the accident occurred, the officer
on the beat attempted to stop the chauf-
feur, but the man got away before he
could be apprehended. large crowd
witnessed the accident and many Of the
men expressed themselves in a forcble
manner about the carelessness Of man
who would drive his machine through the
streets OF the city at such nigh rate
OF speed, endangering the lives of pedes-
trians.
Johnson himself Is greatly wrought up
over the accident and Is swearing venge-
ance upon the man. T.
why, as soon as he knocked me down,
he went on up the street without even
asking me II was hurt" he said to-day.
81 am used to dodging teams all day long
and had there been any chance for me to
get out of the way of the machine, I
should have done so, but he never rang
the bell or gave any warning whatever.
The first thing ] knew I was lying on
the street and my nice, white suit, which
had put on clean in the morning, was
covered with dirt. If ! catch him I'll
have him arrested for reckless driving OF
his machine"
Other Complaints Made.
Johnscn's complaint against the chauf-
feur is given emphasis by other COM
, plants against the automobile racers. In
the resident sections of the city these ma
chimes are driven at a high rate Of speed
/ and the operators disregard the injunc-
J tions Of officers when commanded to cease
their reckless driving. Detective Vaughn
saw man driving his machine on Hen
nepfn avenue at high rate of speed the
. other day and when he commanded the
man to stop, the fellow put ON more power
and dashed off down the avenue att q
speed which distanced the officer, who
was mounted on a bicycle. .-.
last night a runabout went scorching up
Washington avenue and pedestrians all
along the street were compelled to dodge
for their lives. The man seemed to have
an utter disregard for the ordinance
which prohibits driving faster than ten
miles an hour on the streets of the city.
for his, machine was running nearly twen-
ty miles an hour. ',Er.<g~, ,..-~, ,
The police have sworn that the chauf-
feurs must respect the ordinances and
will exercise every effort to arrest anyone
guilty of driving them faster than the
ordinance allows They consider that the
speed at which many of the machines are
run through the streets Is dangerous to
the safety of the people and the officers

THE NULL PEARSON FIGHT.
Twenty Warrants Issued Against Dickworth

Morganton, \. c., Jan. 31.-The con
test between d. c. Pearson and j.. ".
Null for postmaster has been the cause
Of much talk and excitement for some
time. Null has Blackburn's endorse
ment, and Pearson, ii is SAID, has the
pledged word of senator Pritchard that
he would be reappOinted. The contest
originated with the two factions OF the
Republicans here. Pearson and his
friends supported Linney for the nomi-
nation for Congress while Null led the
fight for Blackburn. 1t is charged by
the Mull faction that Pearson knitted Con
gresSman Blackburn at the polls by using
all his influence against him, though
Pearson emphaticalIy denies this. Pear
sons friends claim that his reappoint-
ment is a certainty.
Some twenty warrants were issued last
SATURDAY night by Mayor Tull against
Robert Dickworth for retailing spiritu-
Gus liquors within the corporate limits
of the town without license. He was

for him. Duckworth claims he was

liquor through him, using his check
book for the purpose. but deriving no
profit whatever from the sales. In con-

some person who lived near by. and the
doctor came and examined the wound and
did all he could for him and left TO at

after the doctor left Colonel Andrews

was hungry and desired something to

porch where the doctor had fingered and
told him what his patient said. The
room in which Colonel Andrews was
lying was situated NEXT TO the porch
where he could hear the conversation
between the Iandlady and the doctor.
The doctor told the landlady TO give
Colonel Andrews anything and every
Thing that he wanted TO eat, that it
would not hurt him, as he would be dead
by the next morning. Colonel Andrews
heard all OF this conversation and when
the lady went back into his room she
carried a waiter with q bountifuI sup

she had, and Col. Andrews looked at the
waiter and then said to the lady: u heard
