CITY BOARDS UNCHANGED
The Charter Commission Rejects the
Draft of New
ii Plan.

No change in the organization of the
municipal boards Is recommended by the
charter commission. The subcommittee
having the matter Of boards under~ con-
sideration, reported last evening and sug-
gested several changes. The draft Of the
board measures abolishes ex-off1cio mem
bers on the park board, library board and
the board Of charities and corrections,
reduces the membership of the library
and park boards to seven each, makes
the commissioners Of the board of chari-
ties and corrections elective by the peo-
pie, reduces the term Of all members from
six to four years, and favors the trans
fer OF all legal business to the city at
torney's office. The recommendations
were all voted down, fact which lends
additional probability to the report that
the idea Of submitting the present city
charter with no change save the addition
OF a home-rule clause. is growing in favor.
A motion to reconsider the action of
the commission in favor of civil service
in the fire department was lost by tie
vote Of Z to Z. 1t is believed that the
question will be dropped eventually, as
1t may endanger the whole charter.
Commissioner Wright of the committee
on health. reported that the present ordi-
| nances had been redrafted and one i'm
portant measure adopted. This empowers
the commissioner Of health to serve no.
| tees to clean up on agents for property
owned by non-residents and to assess the
cost on the property when the notices are
ignored.

TRYING MINI. PLAN
Boston Finds New Primary Law,
Copied After Minnesota
Method, Is Slow.
Much Objection Made by Voters tt
Declaring Their Party
Affiliations.

Boston has had the same difficulty with
new primary election law,
copied after that Of Minnesota, that Min
neapolis had with the original of the
Minnesota law. A very light vote was
polled yesterday, and there were general
objections to declarations of party affilia-
tions, tho such declarations were prac-
tically required under the former law.
Special dispatches from Boston give the
following account of the first trial Of the
law:
THE first trial yesterday Of the new
primary election law, copied from that
Of Minnesota, produced a great deal of
confusion among the voters, especially
among the more ignorant classes in the
north end. Except in wards where there
were close contests causing the factional
managers to see to it that the voters were
out, a very light vote was polled. There
were long delays at every voting booth
1.-THE chief criticism is from citizens who
objected to publicly declaring their party
affiliation, altho under the old law no one
could vote at a caucus without enrolling
himself with one party or the other AT
every polling place In the city objections
were voiced against the required decla-
ration. In ward II, blue-stocking dis
trict, Judge Richardson Of the superior
court went away from the booth rather
than announce the party.
In the north and west ends, where the
Jewish population resides, 5000 Jews
were disfranchised by the fact that yes
terday was their New Year day, and they
were prohibited from work Of any sort
The election commissioners refused to lei
some one else mark their ballots for them, y

INDIGNANT AT DELAY
Third Avenue Residents Are Tired
Of Waiting for Paving.

Property owners along Third avenue s
from Fifth street to Grant are said to be
very indignant over the slow progress
made in paving the street. They are said
to be preparing to sue the city for dam
ages to their business. AS it is only a
few weeks ago since the improvement
bonds which provided funds for the paw
Ing were sold there does not appear to be
much show for a suit. If the creosoted
blocks begin to come next Monday as has
been promised, the pavement will be COM
pleted before legal proceedings can be
started. Engineers say that the more
time given the ground to settle before con-
crete is applied and the more time given
the concrete to harden before the paving
is laid, the better will be the pavement
It this is true the property owners along
Third avenue will have the satifaction Of
knowing that they have the best paving
in the world.

FELT LIKE PHARAOH.
How It Happened That Girling's
Place Was 0verrun by
Frogs.
He Had Offered to Buy All That
the Boys Could
Catch.

II any person desires to invest in frogs
for fishing purposes let him look into q
well back of Representative Tom H. Girl
ing's place in Robbinsdale, for, strange as
1t may seem, by these frogs does hang a
tale.
Mr.: Girling had plans to go fishing up
the 500 road Saturday night and Monday
morning and being in need Of frogs called
to his aid two trusty youths of Robbins
dale, yclept Henry DeMars and Iva Ben
son. II will give you II cents dozen
for all the frogs you bring me tonight, .
said the representative yesterday morn
ing, and the two youths went forth.
Later In the day they appeared before
Mrs. Girling and inquired in anxious tone:
did Mr.. Girling say anything about those
frawgs to any Of the other kids?''
mot that I know off, responded the
lady of the house. Still later the frog
brokers made the same query Of the small
ceiving the same response went away in
apparent content.
1t SO happened that Mr.. Girlfng S
agents were no common boys, but gentle
| men of the rising generation with Rookie
fellertan tendencies and before their COM
| mission was two hours old they had gath
cred together all the small boys Of the
Robbinsdale school and had said 1--WE
| are paying cent a dozen for all the frogs
you bring us before 6 o'clock tonight
1t also so happened that yesterday was
an ideal day for frogs, altho so late in the
season, and the lakes and marshes OF
Robbinsdale were alive with batrachians
who were literally drilling in squads, sc
fine was the warm weather to them
The agents for the absent representative
held the mouth of a sack and the sub
agents did the rest and when Mr.. Girling
| got home last night Mrs. Girling was
standing on the furniture and there were
frogs all over the place. The house had al
least one marked resemblance to Pha.
raoh's palace during one of the Mosaic
plaques.
The official count placed the catch a.
TAI and after looking the mess over the
despairing seeker after frogs said:
Lets compromise"
There was a wild wall Of protest from
the two trusty agents when this sug.
gestion was offered but Girling stoot
firm and the youths finally consented tt
depart with 81. The frogs were thrown II
an abandoned we'll and the Girling fishing
parties will have frogs enough to last then
| thru the fall.

KEPT AWAY WITH A GUN =
Futile Attempt Of Mrs. Lydia Cardi'
nal to Get Child Back.

Mrs. Lydia Cardinal, II Sixth street N,
says that she went to Arson. Wis, to
get her s-year-old son, Clarence, from
his aunt, with whom he had been living
for some time, she was kept from the
premises by the vigorous use of a shot
gun. She had to return to this city with
out her boy. Mrs. Cardinal says her hus-
band died some years ago, leaving her
to care for four children. Her resources
being limited she allowed Clearance to go
to live with his aunt. Recently the
mother learned that the boy was being
brought up a Protestant whereas she had
promised his father he should be a
Catholic. She, therefore, went to get the

water. The first issue will be taken with
