MUST ENTERTAIN
VISITORS TO FAIR
Commercial Club Calls for 5, 600
Rooms for Rent i'm Pri-
vate Houses.

The Commercial club wants 5000
rooms in private houses for the ac-
commodation of visitors to the state
fair and Philippine veterans reunion
next week.
The club has organized it's bureau
of information and is in condition to
care for the wants of the fair visitors
with the single exception of lodgings.
Secretary Slime, of the club, yester-
day said that while the bureau of in
formation has already secured quar-
tiers for some visitors the demand will
be greater than ever this year and at
least 5000 rooms will be needed.
This is the fifth year of the exist
ence of the bureau of information and
from the start it has proved not only
valuable, but extremely popular. So
popular, in fact, that many regular
fair visitors from other Northwestern
states have come to rely on the Com
mercial club for lodgings, and requests
began to come in this year before the
bureau went to work.
On account of the increased interest
in the state fair, the club officials eX-
pect that this year they will require
lodgings for at least $4,000. and the
Philippine veterans reunion will
bring an additional $500 for whom
rooms must be secured. All citizens
having one OF more rooms IndI can De
given up to fair visitors for the week
or for even one night are requested to
list them with the Commercial club at
once.
A committee of business men repre-
senting the bureau of information will
open headquarters at the union depot
Saturday and maintain them until the
fair is over. A feature of the bureaus
work this year will be the distribution
of $4,000 illustrated circulars descrip-
tive of st. Paul, it's beauty spots and
it's advantages as home and business

STREET CAR SERVICE
is EASILY STOPPED
Moving a House Put Half the
System Out of Operation
for Two Hours.

Last night afforded an illustration of
the lameness or Indifference of the
street railway company in avoiding in
terruptions in service. The moving Of
a house across the Wabasha street
line at College avenue put out of OPP
Grafton all the loop lines between and
o'clock this morning.
The interruption at this time caused
no great inconvenience, but it serves
to show that the disablement of the
Dale power station puts out of opera
ton the Rice and West side, Jackson
and Hamline, Rondo and Maria and
Grand and Lafayette lines, since no
provision has been made for sup
plying power from any other source
for operation of these lines.
The feed wires had to be laid down
last night to permit the passage of the
house, and as a result all the lines re-
ceiving power from the Dale street
station were cut out. The Selby ave-
nue. owl service was undisturbed and
connections made at Merriam Park
for Minneapolis. On West Seventh
street the cars run from st. Peter
street, and on East Seventh from Rob-
ert street, and above Dale street the
power was on the interurban.

PLUMBERS CLAIM
INSPECTION is LAX
Say Engineer RundlettIs Not
Applying Proper Tests to
Non-Union Work.

The striking plumbers charge the
building inspection department with
giving aid to the master plumbers
through laxity of inspection of work
done by non union strike breakers.
At a meeting of the Plumbers union
last night the executive board was dl-
rected to take up the matter with city
Engineer Rundlett today and insist
that all the test requirements be COM
piled with in the inspection of work
being done by the non-union men.
What action, if any, was taken in
the matter of securing the appoint
ment of a plumbing inspector, the
union men declined to disclose. The
impression conveyed by the men was,
however, that they would not insist
on the appointment of union man
until after the strike is over. G. Mey-
ers, who is the executive officer in
charge of the strike, said:
1--WE are not getting a square deal.
The tests are being sighted. The work
done by men employed in the unfair
shops is passed upon without having
to stand the five and ten-pound tests,
which the union mems work has to
| stand. Ellerbe is doing the inspecting
and our committee is instructed to
! take UP the matter with him and Engi-
/ neer RundIett. No, we do not want
| anybody ousted, but We do want fail
tests and inspection of the work done
The unfair shops are not managing to
put in much work, and we are conf
dent we will win, but we want fair
field"
City Engineer Rundlett denied that
any discrimination is practiced in the
inspection of plumbing or that there
is any laxity. He said that he and
Building Inspector Ellerbe are per-
sonally conducting the plumbing in
spections, which, he claims, are even
more rigid than they We're before the
strike.
1t is understood that the case Of In
spector Golf, discharged for assault
upon a non-union plumber, was not
formally discussed at last nights meet

papers. at any rate, that would give as
much space to the gilt as to the theft,
unless the latter had such pccuii rifles
as to give it a news value above the or

None but the editors of the loathsome5
yellow journals regard news as being OF
in direct proportion to the
crimtnality of the subject matter.
1t does not follow, however, that news
of a criminal nature is not often very
important and worthy of conspicuous
nosition. It is true that a thousand and
one good deeds are never reported Whlle
very few bad ones that ever reach the
borders of publicity are denied some form
OF publication But the daily routine of
an individuals or a city's life IS not news,
Nest men are not criminals, crimes are
rare compared with the number OF benef1-
cent deeds. We expect a bank teller TO
keep from stealing. It's no news to- re-
port that he hasn't stolen. But II this

full about its reports of such offenses than
persons are in daily conversation. They

dalous and false reports that can't come
