EATON AT WORK AGAIN
Man Who Wants to Borrow So on
the Town Again.

A w. Eaton, who last winter worked a
confidence game on Minneapolis physi-
clans, and was sent to the workhouse,
was released a few days ago and yester-
day was trying a similar game on persons
having rooms for rent near Nicollet ave-
nue. and Fifteenth street. Having en-
gagged room of landlady, he would ask
for a loan of 81 until he could go to the
bank. He tried the game at the home of
Detective Tom Gallagher, Gallagher being
away. The detectives mother was sus-
picious and tried to detain him, but Eaton
scented danger and left. He is still at
large. Last year his game was to ask
physician to call at certain number
and then to borrow 50 to buy medicine and
food for the patient. Needless to say, the
physician never found the address given.
Eaton is about SO, has gray hair and
mustache, is rather short and very slen-
der.

HEBREWS HARD LOT
Another Delegation Of Peddlers Calls
Upon the Police Asking
Protection.
They Now Propose an Association
to Cooperate With the
Police.

Anti-Semitic operations in South Min
neapolis have assumed q serious aspect
according to the peddlers' report, and this
morning several of the men who were re-
Gently attacked by the roughs, visited
Chief of Police Conroy. They were ac-
companied by two prominent Hebrews,
who stated their grievances. After the
interview, the chief ordered all the cap
tains to instruct the patrolmen to keep
a sharp lookout for any attempted assault
and to report the same at headquarters.
If necessary a special detail of officers will
be put at work on the case.
One of the peddlers, J. Rattenberg, said
that fully a hundred boys and young men
gathered in body yesterday afternoon
and went in search Of the Hebrews. AS
he was coming along Cedar avenue his
horse was stopped by the crowd, which
made all sorts Of threats against him. The
gang broke up at the sight Of an APP
preaching officer, but met him a few
minutes later and began to unhitch his
horse Several citizens who were passing
by at the time interfered but not until the
man was severely bruised with stones
Rattenberg says he knows the names OF
some of the boys and will swear out war
rants for, their arrest I. Kremmer was
also attacked yesterday and went thru
the same experience.
M. S. Winthrop, of the municipal court
staff, says that the corridors Of the city
hall have been thronged with peddlers fo1
the last three days and that he has beer
able to do little else than listen to thei1
complaints. He has asked all Of the ped
oilers to attend the monthly meeting O.
| the Zionists at Morgan Post hall next Sun
day, at which time the Hebrew merchant.
| Of the city will take measures to organic,
| a peddlers' protective association TIL,
purposes of the organization will be to in
vestigate all reported cases of Jew bait
ing and to secure evidence leading to tn,
arrest of the offenders. Not only ped
dlers, but all Jews who are interested i,
seeing fair play will be asked to join. TIL,
men appointed to do the investigating will
be backed by the police department, which
is DESTROYS of seeing the trouble brough
to an end as soon as possible.

GERMANS KNEW MINNIE
Once, at Least, Flour City Has Been
Named in an itinerary.

Recognition has been given Minneapolis
by an eastern railroad. Readers Of east
ern financial papers and purchasers of
railway tickets issued in the east never
hear of Minneapolis. st. Paul is the
whole thing. But 1t has been discovered,
by a study Of the recent itinerary Of the
German farmers issued by the Baltimore
& Ohio, that Minneapolis is on the map.
In fact the Observation-Disclosures durch die
Vereingten Staten mentions Minneapolis
as the only Minnesota town to be visited.
The discovery made this morning by Sec
rotary w. G. Nye Of the public affairs
committee almost caused paralysis in sew
eral bystanders at the time the wonder
full finding was made.

Rogers have picked up from time to time OF

was 3a per cent tho there were some 'tfours''

accrued interest and premiums they cost the city
about $4,000 The purchase of the bonds was
authorized by the commissioners-AIayor Haynes,

This fund is probably the largest holder of
Minneapolis bonds in the world, it's securities

100000 interest annually to eastern capitalists,
the city trucks away this sum in the sinking fund
to await the maturing of bond issues.

ADANGER OF The 4lH|
The Deadly Tetanus Germ Looking
for Fourth of July
Openings.
Wounds Of That Day Particularly
Are Apt to Result in
Lookjaw.

Look out for Fourth of July lock-
Jaw, says Health Commissioner P. M.
Hall. "These early celebrations in antic-
lpat1on Of the Fourth are already claiming
their victims. I notice from the Chica-
go health reports that seven. boys have
recently died from tetanus caused by toy
pistols or firearms. Children should not
be allowed to play with firearms and GER
tainly the toy pistol should be abolished,
by ordinance If parental authority is not
effective.
Death from lockjaw Is most agonizing
and parents should use all precautions to
keep this danger from their offspring.
zLockjaW or tetanus is caused by bacil-
LUIS or germ found In large quantities in
street dirt and particularly around barns,
This germ when lodged in the human body
where the. aiS>is excluded becomes very
active and produces one OF the most viru-
lent Of poisons, which Is the direct cause
of tetanus. 80
Wounds caused by percussion caps
toy pistols and the like should be kept
open and thoroly cieansed. Properly all
wounds of that character should be treat
ed by physicians even tho the injuries
may seem insignificant e
DR.. Hall cites an article in the current
number Of the Journal Of the American
Medical associations which sounds note
OF warning to physicians but which should
also interest the parents OF boys. The
article says:
We should not forget that most OF
these deaths are preventable If the blank
cartridge wounds are properly treated as
soon as they are received. It is sad
fact that the greatest number Of cases Of
Fourth of-July tetanus occur In boys who
have gone to some physician, not infre-
quently In dispensary, who, instead 0,
giving the wound the thoro treatment tina,
It. deserves, has superf1cially cleaned and
dressed it. The responsibility here lies
with the physician !. who first sees the
wound. A thoro surgical treatment OF
blank cartridge wounds, supplemented by
prophylactic injection Of tetanus antitoxir
when possible, would save many lives
every year.
