$40 WORTH OF FUN
A Well Known Young Attorney and
Companion Take a Swift "Auto
Ride Around Lake Harriet
And the Municipal Court Assesses
Him $40 for Violating Rapid
Driving Ordinance.

Sewell D. Andrews, a prominent young
attorney of Minneapolis and one of the
most enthusiastic chauffeurs in the city,
was in the municipal court this morning
charged with driving his automobile fast
er than ten miles an hour. on Lake Har-
riet boulevard. Judge Dickinson fined
him $40.
Mr.. Andrews went out yesterday after
noon with young lady from st. Cloud
and after taking in the sights of the city.
started for Lake Harriet for a spin around
the lake. The roads were good and the
little machine which won Mr.. Andrews
glory at the automobile races at Mime
haha park last week, made the circuit Of
the lake in eleven minutes, finishing the
last half of the course in five minutes.
AS Mr.. Andrews was leaving the park,
delighted that he had succeeded in max
ing such a fine run, he was surprised by
Park Policeman John Martin, who gave
him the cheerful information that he was
under arrest and would be obliged to go
to the police station. IN vain did Mr..
Andrews protest and plead. The officer
was obdurate and at last mounted the rear
seat Of the machine, directing Mr.. An
drews to drive to the South Side police
station.
Arrived at the police station, Mr.. An
drews was informed that he would have
to be locked up unless he could produce
cash bail Of $25. He felt in his pockets
and found that he had but $3.50 in money.
Here was predicament. It was past 5
o'clock and his fair companion had to take
a train at the union station at o'clock.
At last Mr.. Andrews put up his $3.50.
the young lady contributed $40, and one
Of the policemen kindly loaned the young
chauffeur 40 cents to make up the re-
CURED bail Of S25 He was then allowed
to depart and reached the station just in
time for his protege to catch her train.

TICKETS lost. PAUL
State Fair Forms Used by Railroads
We're Misleading at the Ex-
pense Of Minneapolis.
Local Jobbers Inclined to Insist That
Less Ambiguous Tickets Be
Used in Future.

Minneapolis jobbers will investigate,
through the proper channels, the form of
the excursion tickets to the recent state
fair. ~ ,ss.a
Several of the railroads, in printing their
excursion tickets at state fair rates. gave
ST. Paul as tho destination, with no ref
erenret to Minneapolis. Owing to this
fact. many OF the merchants from the
county thought it was necessary to go
to st. Paul to have coupons stamped for
return. The jobbers believe that a great
injustice Was thus worked during fair
week. and that many visited the retail
and wholesale fstores in st. Paul when
their inclination would have been to start
home FROM Minneapolis ~. - 81 -
Fair dealing is all the Minneapolis
wholesalers want. Their demand will be
that on all excursion tickets the names
Of both cities be- printed, so that, without
undue influence, shoppers and country
mercfants may trade in whichever town
they Wlsh and may understand also that
It Is their privilege to start home from
whichever town suits their convenience.

STOP Their POISON
G. J. Bintliff Has Definite Ideas on
Providing School Children With
Wholesome Drinking Water.
He Believes Drive-Well for Each
School Would Be Worth
the Expense.

To secure pure drinking water for the
public schools will be hereafter the object
Of Charles J. Bintliff whether he Is or Is
not successful in his present campaign for
a position on the school board.
Il intend to demonstrate to the men,
bers OF the board, whoever they may be.
said Mr.. Bintliff, tbs morning, mot only
that the pupils need pure drinking water,
but that such water can be furnished to
all the schools at moderate cost. =; g.. D.
Drive wells, I think, will solve the
problem. To get at the probable. result
in case wells were begun, I've had talks
with the drive-well men about town and
with Professors Winchell and Hall of the
university. ... 4. =.
1.-The men that make business of put
ting down these wells estimate that the
average depth Of the wells, in case one
was provided for each of the sixty public
schools would not exceed 100 feet. Some
wells might have to go down 200 feet.
Others, again, would produce plentiful
fifty to sixty feet. To be on the safe side,
perhaps. we might fix the average depth
at not to exceed 125 feet. ...=
THE cost Of putting down such wells
would be from $3.50 to 5000 each, or about
$4,000 to give every public school pupil
an abundance of wholesome drinking
water. Not much, that, for a big city
IAA1I ~ lucS ltScll Oll puDllC SpHlL,
"A similar reply was obtained from
Professor Winchell. He writes me, here
in this note, that we can find good water
at about 100 feet below the surface, and
that nowhere will it be necessary to drive
we'll more than 200 feet. The professor
incloses copy of a report he made to the
city council on the same subject as far
back as 1894. Professor Hall agrees with
his fellow expert
but, in order to deal with facts in
stead of opinions, I'm going to get sam
pies from wells now In use near each Of ou1
schools intend to find out just how deep
these wells are. Then I shall have an

many Of the wells provide good potable
water. I'll submit the. sttement to the
school board. will have definite informa-
ton to act upon.
my idea is that it would be proper tt
provide wells first at those schools where
the present water supply from the city

parts of the town the water is fairly good

TURN DOWN EXCURSIONS
Officials of Lines Entering Twin
Cities Finally Deny Request
Of Retail Merchants.

None Of the railroad lines entering the
twin cities would agree to the petition of
the twin city merchants association for
a series Of six excursions to Minneapolis
and st. Paul for the benefit of buyers
within a radius of 200 miles, and the pro-
posal was formally negatived at a meet
ing held to-day at the Great Northern
building, st. Paul. The vote against
granting the rate of one and one-fifth
fare for the round trip was unanimous
The reason assigned was that such ex-
cursions were not in vogue elsewhere;
that it would antagonize retail dealers in
smaller communities, and that if the ex-
cursion were handled on the certificate
plan it would be a gross misuse Of the
privilege.
While the vote on the final abandon
ment Of the plan was unanimous it does
not follow that all lines were really in
favor of it.

DIED OF NOSEBLEED
An Autopsy Reveals the Cause Of
Thompson's Death.

An autopsy performed upon the remains
Of John Thompson, found dead in his
room at the Pacific hotel, 226 Washing
ton avenue N, yesterday morning, revealed
the fact that death was caused by ma
sal he1norrhage; superinduced perhaps,
by heavy drinking. A clot of blood was
found ur on the brain, but it is not
thought that this caused death.
The fact that Thompson died from ma
sal hernorrhage explains the mysterious
appearance Of the room. The furniture
and walls Of the room were covered with
blood, and. for this reason, the police
fcaced that a crime might have been COM
mitted. It is evident that Thompson, in
trying to staunch the flow Of blood, moved
about the room and besmeared the fur
niture. : 4 ~
