HIS RAINBOW HAIR
Caused Carlson to Tell How He'd
Been VictimiZed.
ONE BARBER JOB COST HIM Se. .s5
Indignant Relatives Cause the Ar.
rest of the Man Who Did
the Work.

Otto Carlson, aged Is, who came to
Minneapolis from Norway a few weeks
ago, and is making his home at 4445 AL
drich avenue N, went into a barber
shop at 2O7 Washington avenue S late
yesterday afternoon, and, although he
cannot speak English, signified his desire
to enlist the services of a tonsorial
artist. The barber placed young Carlson
in chair and worked over him ener-
getlcally for nearly two hours and half.
He gave the young man a hair cut, shaved
his cheeks, shampooed him, returned and
shaved his mustach, what there was of
it,-singed his hair, applied a fragrant
tonic, and wound up by dying his rich au-
burn locks dark brown. He then asked
$3.50 for his services. The young man re-
monstrated, but the artist got friend
who spoke Carlson's native language to
explain that the charge was not excess
sive. Finally, it is said, the young for
eigner was threatened with arrest if he
did not pay, and he handed over the
money.
When the much -barbered young man
went home he felt constrained not to tell
his relatives about the cost of the 'fix-
ms This morning, however, he was
compelled to tell about it. The atten-
tion of everyone at the breakfast table
was riveted by the resplendent halo about
Otto's head and he had to explain. His
Vi oIVAAAAC pCdOL1lU1 dlh UlOWu udlT Hdu
assumed nearly all the colors of the rain
bow. The hair dye had failed to stick.
Young Carlson presented laughable spec
tacle, and he decided to 'fess up. He told
the folks about the painstaking work Of
the barber, and lastly about the charges.
The latter made Car1son's uncle very
angry, and taking Otto with him he pro-
ceeded at once to the Office Of the clerk
of the municipal court and there pro-
cured a warrant for the arrest of the
barber. It was made out for one John
Doe But Otto pointed out the man who
did the work and took the money, and he
was arrested Officer Erickson took him
to the central station, where he gave the
name OF Fred J. Funk He Is charged
with the larceny of $5.45, it having been
decided that the work done for young
Carlson was not worth more than 80

Him In.

kid Moore, alias Chilly" Edwards,
and Cheerful Charley" Howard, both OF
whom have criminal records, held up and
robbed Frederick Behrens, a farmer liy-
ing near Chaplin, Franklin county, Iowa,
on Third avenue S, near Sixth street, at
II o'clock yesterday. Just as the
|highwaymen were completing their work
and moment after Cheerful Charley"
had departed, Detectives Mic Smith and
Oscar Hicks ran upon Edwards and the
victim and the former was arrested for
highway robbery.
Cheerful Charley" Howard had met
Behrens on the street an hour before. He
posed as farmers friend and gave him a
snowy ring. Then he decoyed the stranger
to the spot where they met Edwards. The
latter represented himself to be police
officer and informed both men that they
were under arrest. He said they were ac-
cused Of stealing the ring. To secure their
release both were compelled to pay the
Officer a sum of money for their re-
lease. To bring Behrens to time the "of-
ticer' found 1t necessary to thrust re-
volver against his breast. Behrens, con-
fronted with an ugly charge, which the
"ofhcer' said would mean five years in
the penitentiary, and by the ugly gun
slipped all of his money, $50, into Ed
wards overcoat pocket. While Edwards
was busy instructing the victim that he

BUTTERCUP DOG, he
Frank Forman's Brindle Canine Was
Mixed En- Route.
PINK AND WHITE DOG DELIVERED
The Brute Is in Bond and the Gov
ernment Must Care
for 1t.

One of the homeliest brutes that ever
came to Minneapolis is the guest of Cap
tain Sandberg, the custom house store
keeper. The protege is bow legged, has a
heavy, hanging lower lip with fore
shortened upper maXiliary which reveals
a set of very white. but decidedly irregu-
lar teeth. He has a remarkable color
combination OF white and pink. He is a
bull dog from England t a.,.
The most remarkable thing about the
creature is that when he left the other
SIDE he was a brindle pup; on reaching his
destination he refuses to answer as to the
transformation. In reply to questions
his pugnacious mug seems to mouth the
words, Can leopard change his spots,
huh" The dog has been named Chame-
leon. IT.
Frank Forman sent to England for a
brindle bull dog to take the place in his
kennels of the blooded animal which re-
Gently died. When it reached here it was
white and pink. The result is that it is
on the hands of the customs department.
The express company evidently sent Mr..
Farman's dog to someone else and some
body else's dog to Mr.. Forman The con-
sequence is that Captain Sandberg has
spent the whole day studying dog lore.
Furthermore he has consumed an hour or
two pouring over volume entitled, How
to HypnotiZe Beasts Captain Sandbere
doesn't like the look in the dogs eye. It
is said that the bull has made friends
with the collector and with all the deputy
collectors, but that he refuses to make
up to the captain until he sees his ere
dentials in dog language. a.
Several experts have offered to keep the
dog for few days until the muddle is
straight ened out, but the regulations are
strict. Goods in bond until released
must remain under the SUPERVISION

TO MOVE OR STAY
The Problem With Heads of the
City Departments.
NEW QUARTERS NEARLY READY
Council Chamber, However, VIII
Not BE Furnished for Some
Time Yet.

The nearer the new city hall approaches
completion the more uncertain it becomes
Wnen the city departments will move into
1t. The council chamber will proba bly,
not be completed and furnished for over
year yet. According to Architect F. B.
Long, there will be no money for furnish
ing the council chamber and probably not
enough completely to furnish the rest of
the building devoted to the use of the
city departments. After completing the
building, with the exception of the Fourth
street entrance. The board will at it's
next meeting advertise for bids for tur-
nlture for the various Offices and will buy
as much as it can and look to the city
to supply the rest from the furniture at
the old city hall.
Mr.. Long estimates that it will cost
from $4,000 to 900 to furnish the new
building, exclusive of the council cham
Der. That will cost from $12 900 to SIS 900
alone. The board has considered the
question of using all the furniture from
the old city hall for the present and of
using the money thus saved for
completing the Fourth street entrance en-
tirely. But Mr.. Long in a tour of the
city departments a few weeks ago found
such strong opposition to this program
that it was decided to equip the building
at least partially with new furniture.
Architect Long says that the second and
third floors of the building will be ready
for occupancy about April 1. the council
chamber two or three months later. If
the city departments should move this
spring, the council would be given quar-
tiers in the asse1hbly-room of the board of
education pending the completion of the
new council chamber. This is now ready
for the plastering.
The iron stairways in the center of the
building, connecting the first and third
floors and the council chamber galleries,
are now almost completed.
The understanding now Is that the board
will ask the next Hennepin delegation to
stand for another issue of bonds for the
completion Of the building, including the
fourth floor and the entrances =

Major Shove Tells All About Meetin
the Prince. -..

the Prince.
Major C. B. Shove, Of Governor Van
SAINTS staff has returned from Milwaukee
with the only correct and duly authorized
version OF the governors meeting with
Prince Henry. His story is this:
Yes, the governor did fetch the prince to
us. We were standing here, the governor
was standing there, the German singing So
cieties were farther down the line-wel1
there was a line about twenty feet long
maybe longer. The prince deigned to notice
US all Of sudden, and he whispered to Ad-
miral Bob Evans. That facetious old sea
dog told the prince that we represented the
great state Of Minnesota, a state that
showed in miniature, everything in the
United, States. That woke the prince up and
he asked to be presented to us. When he
made his wishes known to Governor Van
SAINT, that dignitary, over-joyed at the honor
conferred on Minnesota, made haste to COM
ply with the princes DESIRE Come right
along, Mr.. Prince said he in the exuber-
ance Of the moment. ''Ill Introduce Won to
some mighty good fellows.
Well, soy, talk about man being tickled
The prince was ready to burst at the gov
ernor's lack of formality. 1t was the first
real democratic touch he had experienced
and he enjoyed it. Why, he's a royal good
fellow; prince, every inch Of him, and he
doesn't put on any airs
Prince Henry talked to US in broken Eng
lish for few moments, but when ha ar
costed the singing societies, he was right at
home, tell you. =,

LOCKOUT IMMINENT
Lake Tugmen and the Trust Have
Not Come to Terms.
CONFERENCES ON IN CHICAGO
The Great Lakes Towing Compan!
Would Lengthen Hours and
Refuses to Employ.

Special to The Journal
Chicago, March 8.-Upon the result of
a series of conferences now being held in
| Chicago depends the beginning of a lock-
out which will result in tying up navga-
ton on the great lakes.
This lockout will affect 2,400 members of
the Licensed Tugmen's Protective asso-
citation, an organization, composed of the
captains and engineers of the tugs run
ming out OF twenty eight harbors along
the lakes.
These men are threatened with the loss
OF their positions because of an attempt
! on the part OF the Great Lakes Towing
company, otherwise known as the ''tug
trust, to lengthen their working hours.
The company insists that it's captains
and engineers shall work for four days at
stretch instead Of three, as is now the
custom Miner differences bet ween the
! officers OF the company and those of the
! tugmen's union have arisen and unless
! they can be settled the opening of navi-
gatlon Will witness the starting of either
a strike or a lockout,
| Captain Charles McCarroll national
president of the tugmen's union, and Cap
tain Cyrus Sinclair, general manager of
the trust, are now comforting with a view
to settling the differences. They have as
yet reached no agreement and the Great
Lakes towing company refuses to employ
any captains or engineers for the coming
| year. 0E.--o .

No explanation is given of the absence
