two sons, of whom George c. Harper
is the Oldest. The funeral will be

stock. His grandmother lived to the
age Of 124, his mother to the age, Of
104. Four brothers and sisters lived

w. H. Truesdale, president of the

day in Minneapolis on a visit to his
sister, Mrs. Joseph Gaskell. Mr..
Truesdale was very busy greeting his
former business and railroad asso-
ciates and will return east tonight
Several years ago Mr.. Truesdale was

enthusiastically Of the future of the

the Lackawanna for 1903 pleased him
greatly, and was ahead of anything
the company had done in the way of
business, he expected in 1904 to break
the record.

Truesdale has just returned has put
him in excellent health, and to his

ON The WATCH
FOR CROOKS
POLICE EXPECT AN INFLUX OF
UNDESIRABLE CHARACTERS.
Chicago's New Vagrancy Law Will
Result in a General Housecleaning
and the Smaller Cities Will Suffer-
Chief Conroy Prepares for CRU
SADIE

Housecleaning in Chicago is ex-
pected to result in bringing into Min
neapolis many crooks who have been
driven out of the windy city by the
new vagrancy law, the first of it's kind
ever passed in that city. In connec-
ton with this move, Chief Of Police
Conroy is preparing for a vigorous
crusade against vagrants and sus-
piciOus characters, and the police
court will be buster than it has ever
been before.
For many years Chicago has been
without a vagrancy law, and there
has been no way to dispose of sus-
picious characters. Beggars were
charged with disorderly conduct, but
other classes of undesirable men were
safe. The police could do nothing
more than to watch them in the hope
of catching them in the act of violat-
ing some law, when they could be
brought into court upon a specific
charge. Recently the Chicago city
council passed q vagrancy ordinance,
which will go into effect Jan. 1, and
the police are determined to enforce
the law and rid the city of undesir-
able characters.
Police officials in all the smaller
cities expect that the crooks who are
driven out Of Chicago will look for
refuge in these cities, and the police
are preparing to begin crusade
against them. Chief Conroy expects
that among those driven out of Chi
.cago will be some of the most desper-
ate crooks in the country, and he is
determined that they shall not take
up a residence in Minneapolis.

MINNEAPOLIS is TO HAVE A NEW
DAIRY ABSOLUTELY DIRTLESs
AND BUGLESS.

p. M. Hall, health commissioner, is
preparing to issue license to the
first certified dairy in the Minneapolis
district. The owner has spent more

the most approved appliances that
sanitary science can suggest. The
stables will be so clean that no stable
odors even will be noticeable. The
milking pals will be dust tight and
the milk will be most carefully
strained. After being cooled to a tenn.
perature of about 4 5 degrees the milk
will be bottle and tightly sealed. This
milk, which will retail for 10 cents
a quart will be especially recon-
mended for invalids and children. The
herd is composed of mixed Guernsey
and Holstein cattle, all of which have
been subjected to rigorous tuberculin
