POLICE GO UNARMED
Toledo Policemen Find Both Clubs
and Guns Superauous Says
Mayor Jones.
Executive Of Ohio City Make Ac-
quaintance Of the Minneap-
oils Officials.

Mayor Samuel Jones Of Toledo was the
center Of attraction at a delightful infor-
NAL reception IN the mayors reception
room at the city hall this morning. Most
of the city and county officials took ad-
vantage Of the opportunity to greet the
distinguished municipal reforiner. In in
Producing Mayor Jones, Mayor ]. C.
Haynes said that mayors were divided into
two classes-ordinary and extraordinary.
For himself he was content to represent
the first class, but Mayor Jones was a
foremost example Of the other.
Mayor Jones said he was not quite sure,
in speaking of extra ordinary mayors, that
Former Mayor Anles of Minneapolis might
not be included In that class. He cor
rected himself and explained that con
fusion Of names had prevented him from
saying Haynes. f
Mayor Jones declared himself to be un-
conditionally opposed to governm ent by
force. In Toledo the police force now
goes unarmed, the use Of both revolvers
and clubs having been discontinued, with
the result that there had been 800 fewe,
arrests last year than for a similar time
when the city was one-thl1 d as large. He
said that the world was growing better
not because legislatures an conventions
were 'resolutin' but because the people
loved the good.
After the reception the mayors visited
the rooms of the Humane society and thu
county jail While he has no time fo
jails, and even questions the need Of them
Mayor Jones pronounced the Hennepil
bastile a most original and model insti
tuition.
Golden Rule Talks Tomorrow.
Tomorrow morning Mayor Jones will
speak at Lowry Hill Congregations
church. At 7:45 p. m. he will speak al

HOLDS TO D. PATCH It's JUST The THING
NJ. w. Savage Refuses an Offer Of
$4,000 for the Famous
Horse.
The Proposition Came From Eastern
Men Who Were Eager
to Buy.

M. w. Savage has refused an offer Of
$4,000 for Dan Patch. The famous PAGER
cost Mr.. Savage 100000 about three months
ago. He bought the stallion in New York
city. and now eastern men are so anxious
to get him back that they telegraphed the
offer.
Horsemen doubt whether Mr.. Savage
pet of his stock farm. At any rate the
strong increase of $4,000 in the market
price within the short space of 100 days
was not too great temptation.
Tuesday morning Dan Patch will be
removed from the Savage private stable
on Portland avenue to the international
Stock Food farm on the Minnesota river.
An arrival of interest yesterday at the
farm from Pleasanton. Kan, was the first
Dan Patch colt to be brought to Mime
sofa. Mr.. Savage has bought a half in
terest in the stud colt and he will live at
the farm. The colt was foaled jan c
and $1,000 was offered for him before he
finished his first day. The colt is named
Young Dam Ills first dam was Cedar
Belle and his grandmother Oleta.
Henceforth Savage will be a station
on the Omaha road: The officials have
notified Mr.. Savage that they will call the
farm station Savage hereafter instead OF

How "New Boy" at tho Chamber
Found the Stone
Stretcher.
Many Had Sought It, but He Alone
Was Able to Deliver
the Goods.

a new messenger boy, put to work by
the Western Union at the Chamber Of
Commerce, staggered into the lobby Of the
building this morning dragging a long.
heavy hardwood plank to one end of
which a big piece Of iron was bolted. The
freight and the little fellow with CULVER
ing lip but indomitable pluck struggled up
four flights of stairs to the trading room
with his burden
''Stop," said q uniformed attendant, at
the door, what in heavens name are you
trying to do?"
''This is for the Western Union, sir.
said the little fellow, I'm working for
them"
''You must be crazy" said the man,
drag that thing over in the corner and
don't block up the passage way"
The little fellow looked up and saw the
delivery clerk in the crowd. He broke
down and began to cry. F..
''Conne here, boy said the kind-hearted
clerk, tell me all about it,
''Well, sir; when T was waiting this
morning two boys from the North Amer
lean came over and said I should go and
get the chalk -sharpener and then they
said no it was the stone -stretcher, and
they said that + should go right away
and it was at Watsohs. I went to Wat
sons and boy said they loaned it to
Charlie Lewis and a boy at Lewis said
Chambers had it. And L ra.: all around
and I asked a man and he smiled and said
it was down in SoWle's. I asked in
Sowle's and nobody knew anything and at
last a boy said yes, he knew, it was in
the Corn Exchange. I ran right over
there and some men were working and
asked them If they knew where was the
stone-stretcher, and they laughed and said
was too late, it was just put OFT in the
alley. And I went out in the alley and
there wasn't anything there but this, and
I thought this must be it. I wanted to
do my work, sir, and I hope I won't get
fired"
mo, my boy" said the clerk, ''you
won't get discharged, but remember this,
if anybody ever tells you to go for the
skinner, the chalk -sharpener, the stone
stretcher or the left-handed monkey
wrench, don't go. but just point out the

The Bridge Square Statue Plan
Strongly Appeals to Prom.
inent Citizens.
It Would Be Grand Feature
for the City's
Entrance.

The magnificent gift Of the Mississippi
statue offered to the city by 9. group of it's
public spirited citizens has ben much dis
cussed to-day, especially in it's bearing on
the idea of the redemption of the natural
gateway to the CITY,, Bridge Square. On
every hand the desire has ben expressed
to see this important locality improved OH
sonme consistent and beautiful plan that
would form suitable setting for the stat
ue and that would serve to give strangers
in their first glimpse Of the city favor
able impression.
The Importance of first impressions was
especially emphasized by L. B. EIwood,
who regarded the possible effect of such
a plan as of inestinable value.
+ H. Moulton is empha tically in favor
of general Improvement and says that if
Minneapolis Is ever going to emerge from
the status of an overgroWn village, now is
the time to begin. He would regard funds
put into the transformation of Bridge
square into bea utiful plaza as an adj
mlrable civic investment.
Congressman elect Lind saw in this
movement the beginning of rectifying the
mistake of placing all of the parks away
from the center of the city; He favored
breathing places in the center of the city.
and thought it high time that this need
should be considered. In conjunction with
the plans suggested for Bridge Square,

David P. Jones, president Of the cit.
council, hailed the news of the presenta
tion of the statue as the beginning of al
epoch in the artistic development Of tn,

| Not only would the civic improvement
be important but such work would prove

HOCH THE MAINITES!
Minneapolis Sends Them an Invita-.
ton to Visit Her.

Secretary w. G. Nye of the public af-
fairs committee. Of the Commercial club
is awaiting a reply from the directors of
an immense Maineite excursion which is
advertised to come west this summer. He
has made proposals which he thinks will
defect the course of the party FIR case it
had planned to pass around Minneapolis
on the tour of the continent
The coming of the excursion will be of
great Importance as the party is made up
of moneyed men Of the pine tree state,
who have investments in the west. A ia
vorable impression would induce further
investments, and Mr.. Nye plans to make
that impression permanent in case the
invitation to stop In Minneapolis is ac-
cepted. He has corresponded for some
time and is now awaiting final answer.

A. B. STICKNEY'S BOMB
Grants Low Rates on Implements
West Of Minneapolis.

President A. B. Stickney Of the Great
Western has created CONSERVATION among
western railroad managers by a reduction
Of 80 per cent in rates on agricultural i'm
plements. While the rates apply only to
business from Minneapolis to the Missouri
it is expected that a corresponding reduc-
ton will be necessary from Chicago, where
the, agricultural manufacture is large to
the river. ss.. ..sg.. l..
Mr.. Stickney said he felt it his duty to
help a twin city manufacturer Who is not
in the trust. It IS thought that the Great
Western has made longtime contracts
and under the new law has published tar
ifs to fit the case.
