one BUD LEFT OUT
Of Eight Debutantes, but Seven Can
Appear at the Hostesses'
Ball.
An Unwritten Law Fixes Seven as
the Number to Be In
troduced.

Social circles are not little inter-
ested in the informal announcement
that but seven of the eight debutantes
of the season will be presented at the
hostesses' hall Friday night.
The hostesses is the big social event
of the season and failure to be, pre-
scented at this function of her coming
cially ambitious young girl.
1t is explained that four years ago.
when the semiorganization which ar
ranges for the great annual parties
was first brought together, 1t was de-
termined that no more than seven
hostesses should be on the reception
committee at any one party. and that
no hostess should be allowed to pre-
sent more than one debutante.
In years gone by the ladies of the
hostesses' ball have not always had
seven debutantes. but this season It
happens that there is a wealth of elig-
ible debutantes, eight of whom are
reckoned as being Of the best fami-
lies These eight have received to-
gethr at all functions preliminary to
and following upon their coming out
and their names have been mentioned
and they have been together this sea-
son score of time.
But because of the unwritten law
that there shall be but seven host
esses on the reception committee sat
the Hostesses ball, and that no one
of them may present more than one
debutante, one of the young girls
probably will defy tradition at this
most desirable, smartest function of
the year, and instead of spending the
greater part of Friday night in the
receiving line, is more likely to hold
a court of her own.

It FREEZES CREAM.
Ice Cream Dealers Seek Permission
to Cut Ice in the
River.
Council This Evening Will Consider
Plan for an Ash Collecting
System.

Ice cream dealers like the ice from
the Mississippi river in spite of the
prohibition against it's use and have
petitioned the city council for per-
mission to cut ice in the river between
the Plymouth avenue bridge and Bas-
however, that the ice shall be used
only for packing and freezing ice
cream and shall not enter into the
cream or be used for domestic pur-
poses. The petition will be presented
to the council at its, regular meeting
this evening.
The council will not consider the
question of giving a franchise to the
Minneapolis General Electric COM
pany. The committee having the
matter in; charge at it's meeting yes
terday afternoon decided to defer ac-
ton for three weeks more. Alderman
Rand declared that he would move
this evening for proceedings which
would give the aldermen more light
on the general subject. of franchises
and particularly on electric lighting.
Bids for the construction of the sub
structure for the new bridge across
the, river at Thi,rty-second avenue N
will be opened this evening. A dele
cation of stonecutters and other trade
unions will appear before the council
to urge that all the stone for the
bridge be cut in this city.
One of the important matters is the
proposition to adopt an ash-collecting
system recommended by the board Of
health. Health Commissioner p. M.
Hall says that the department can col
without entailing any additional ex-
pense to the city and urges the adop-
ton of his plan in the interest of
municipal cleanliness.

CHECK up DEPOSITS
Bank Examiner Will Have Balances
of Some Individual Accounts
Verified.
Bills Receivable Will Also Be
Checked Up by Individual
Inquiry.

Public Examiner S. r. Johnson has
decided to begin a system of vertical
ton of individual depoksits in banks,
in order to prevent such frauds as
were perpetrated by Alfred A. Buck
of the Wahpeton bank. Owing to lack
of funds this system will only be
operated to a limited extent.
To notify all depositors of their bal
ances would require double the num-
Der of bank examiners and an in
creased clerical force. When depu-
ty has examined a state bank he will
run thru the ledgerand pick out per-
centage of the accounts, preferably
those that are not often checked
against, and will send out to each de-
positor a, notice, showing what his bal
ance is.
If it does not tally with his pass
book, the depositor is asked to repor,
the discrepancy at once.
The examiner will also check up the
budget of bills receivable and senG
out inquiry to the makers of the pa
per. SO as to verify all notes and mort,
cages entered as assets, with a state
ment of the interest paid.
1t will not be possible to check
every account, but such a device
ought to uncover any system of falsi,
flying the books.

TO LET SUSPECTS COW
Authorities Satisfied That Present
Prisoners Did Not Murder
Cation Gordon.
A Coroner's Inquest Sheds No
New Light Upon the
Tragedy.

F /. p
Cation G. Gordon came to his death
by being thrown from a rapidly NOV
Ing train, after being robbed by par
ties unknown to the jury
Such was the verdict of a coroner's
Jury this morning. The evidence was
practically the same as published in
T n e Journal.
Edward Bielke, James Donovan and
James Williams, the three men ar
rested upon suspicion, will be re-
leased, as it has been proved
sconclusively that they are not the men
wanted They were identified by Ed
ward Alton and. Frank Keller, two of
the victims. but against these iden-
tif1cations was the testimony of the
train crew and half a dozen other VIC
TINS who were positive that the trio
are innocent of the robbery.
Ihe most conclusive evidence that
B1elke, Donovan and Williams are not
the men wanted was that of W.. X.
Strand. one of the brakemen on the
train on which the bandits worked.
Strand says that he saw the men sew
eral times, and that he would now
know them anywhere, and that the
men under arrest are not the men
wanted.

near the track and when the train
started they boarded us. We had not
gone far when the engine broke down
and we We're laid out for some time.
Just across the right of way from the
depot was a saloon, and the three men
came to me and asked me to go and
have drink. I told them that / never
drank, and they said might go and

into the saloon and T. took cigar

running. went back to the train,
and as they. were tough looking GUS
toners, I decided to leave them and
told the conductor that I was afraid
they were after my watch.
The next time that I saw them
| was farther on the road, when one
of the couplings broke and we were
laid out awhile fixing it. The three
men stood about and gave suggestions
how the thing should be fixed. All
of, the ,trainmen saw them there, and
when the train started again we did
not see them until we We're nearly

off the train.
you see I had a, good chance to
know them and could pick them out
among thousand. These fellows are
not the right. ones and, do. not look
much like them
Otto Wenzell, one of the victims of
the hold-up, and who was thrown
from the train near Long Lake, was
present while the coupling was being
fixed, and he remembers the three
men who stood by and offered sug-
gestions to the trainmen as the men
who held him up. He says the men
under arrest are not the right ones.
The remains were identified this
morning by f. f. Gordon, superin-
tendent of schools at Vail, Iowa, as
those Of his brother, and were taken
| by him to their home at Dolores, Col,
for burial. The dead man was 26 and
we'll educated.

DIED IN THE MARSH.
Ifeless Body Of Octave Normandin
Is Found Near His osseo
Home.
He Had Evidently Been Stunned by
Struggles Of a Mired
Horse.

While on his way home from Min
neapol1s last night, Octave Norman-
din, prominent farmer and early
settler near Osseo, was drowned in a
marsh within half mile of his home.
Both of his horses were found dead
this morning, the farmers body being
found under one. Normandin was 81
and is survived by his widow and
four grown children.
Normandin left his home yester-
day morning to come. to Minneapolis
with load of produce. He started
for home shortly after dark. Nothing
was. seen Of him until this morning,
when his wagon was discovered stand
ing in the marsh
A bruise on Normandin's forehead
indicated that he had been struck
and stunned by one Of the horses,
probably while trying to rescue it
from the mud
At the place where Normandin was
drowned the water was not more than
two feet deep, but underneath this
was several feet of Shiny mud and
quicksand. IT has been considered
a dangerous place, but Normandin
must have driven, into the marsh by
mistake.
