NEIGHBORS REPREsSED
HER. SOCIAL AMBITIONS
So Mrs. crowe Started In to Exterminate
the Offenders. a9Fs

Mrs. Della Grove. of Northeast Mime
apolis, is charged by her neighbors with
trying to shoot her way into the exclusive
social circle of her nefghborhood Yes
terday morning score of the members
Of this 400 appeared in police court to
testify to the belligerent style of Mrs
Groves social ambition But the lady
had not been appfehended.
From the story Of the complainants it
appears that Mrs. Grove could not quail
ify. even if craftsmanship were the test
of social fitness. for it is claimed that
she fired five shots at a bunch of neigh
bors whom she held most directly re-
sponsible for the Social embargo raised
against her, and failed tenscore single
time. She did,. however, gain temporary
sway, for the neighbors took to their
houses and let her run things to suit
herself,
The trouble, it appears, grew cut of a
move to ostracize Mrs. Grove. She
wanted to mingle with the best of them,
but they treated her overtures coldly, and,
on her persisting, finally closed their doors
against her when she went to call. Then
she became bellicose and took the effec-
tive means of expressing her displeasure.
A warrant was sworn out for her, but
the police up to last evening had not
located her

WAGON OVERTURNS
WITH EIGHT PEOPLE
Washout on Dakota Avenue
Causes Accident--Two Wom-
en- Seriously Hurt.

A deep gully on Dakota avenue. due
to a recent washout, was the cause Of
the abrupt ending of the gayety of a
party returning to town in a farm
wagon from a wedding held at p. j..
McGrath's house, Dakota county, last
night.
There were eight people in the
wagon four couples, and three OF the
couples had gone along to escort Mr..
and Mrs. J. H. Barwise, 1947 Carroll
street, to a Stryker avenue car.
The greatest merriment prevailed
among the people in the wagon until,
suddenly and without warning. the
horses plunged forward into dark pit
in the road, the wagon overturned and
the occupants were thrown with vlo-
lence to the ground. The accident hap
pened at IL o'clock, on Dakota avenue,
between Page and Morton streets.
Mrs. Barwise and Mrs. William M.
Wentworth. West ST. Paul, were Sc
riously hurt, but the others escaped
without severe injury. Mrs. BarW1se
was painfully bruised about the right
hip and shoulders, and her right leg
was injured so that she could hardly
walk Mrs. Wentworth's spine was in
jured by the fall and her condition is
regarded as serious.
The other members of the party es-
capped with a shaking up and bruises
of varying severity. Mrs. BarWlse
was able to proceed with the aid OF
her husband to her home, while Mrs.
Wentworth had to be taken to her
home in the wagon.

WEST SIDE HAS PLAN
FOR CROSS.TOWN LINE
Would Extend 1t Across High
Bridge to Dakota County
Line.

West side residents are interesting
themselves in the cross-town car line
agitation.
If one is built they want it to extend
from the Dakota county line to Como
park and beyond. The high bridge,
they say, would make the plan FEAST
BILE.
The scheme, which has many Fifth
ward supporters, is to build a line
across the Fifth and Seventh wards,
connecting with the Grand avenue line.
preferably at Victoria street. From
here the Grand avenue line would be
used to Seventh and Ramsey street.
At Seventh a line, they say, could be
built to connect direct with the high
bridge and extend across the bridge
to the West side, where it would con-
meet with the Mississippi and WeststSt.
Paul car line. This would bring it to
the Dakota county line, which is An
napolis street.
If cheapness is one of the things, that
the street car company wants, the sup
porters say, the project should appeal.
as less new track would be required
than any other plan yet outlined would,
necessitate. AS to the use of the high
bridge, only one track, they say, need
be laid on 1t. It is sufficiently strong
for the purpose.
When a cross-town line was under
discussion. some years ago, this plan
was preached, but like others, it pass
ed into history as failure because of
council opposition. Just now, however,
the members of the council are gener-
ally outspoken In favor Of another line.
and an ordinance calling for it is ex-
pected at an early date. nj =

POOR WIDOW FINALLY
GETS HER PENSION
Receives S294in Accrued Pay
After Much Disappointment
and Humiliation.

Having passed through most us
tressing experience of humil1atlon ano
disappointment extending over Two
years, Mrs. Mary Mitchell, who lives at
368 Rosabel street, has been granted
widows pension Of So month. Wnlcn
carries with it 1924 in accrued back
pay.
She was married in 1888, at Pemb1na,
N. D., to Thomas Mitchell, a veteran OF
the Civil war, and until his death. IN
1898, lived with him as a devoted WIFE,
In 1901 Mrs. Mitchell made appi1ca.-
ton for a widows pension, and was
able to furnish all Of the evidence
usually necessary in goor form.
Her application was refused. and
then was disclosed to her the startling
intelligence that at the time of her
marriage her husband nad a wife still
living from whom he had never been
divorced, and therefore his wedding
with her was Illegal
The first wife, the pension office re-
ports said, had been a resident of West
Virginia and had died in 1891.
Mrs. Mitchell was crushed by this
message, not only by reason of the
denial Of her claim, but also because
she had always believed herself to be
the legal wife of Thomas Mitchell. She
was poor in circumstances and obliged
to work by the day. scrubbing stores
and offices, to support herself and her
child, so she persevered and again her
claim was presented and rejected.
Now, through the persistent efforts
of the pension department of the adj
jutant generals office, she has finally
secured her pension.
Maj. Seebach, who has charge of this
branch of the work, has been busy
upon the Mitchell claim for months,
and, in the face of .all sorts of dis
couragement, has pressed it on the
ground that Mary Mitchell, having
maintained her wifely relations with
the deceased soldier after the death of
the first wife, and having been inno
cent until long. after his death of any
knowledge of a previous marriage, was
entitled to consideration as a common
law wife.
1t was found that on this point the
secretary of the interior had ruled that
cases must be governed by the laws of
the respective states in whish the par
ties had lived at the time of the death
of the soldier. Decisions of the SUI
preme court of this state were then
put in evidence to show that the court
had ruled in manner favorable to the
establishment of Mrs. Mitchell'S claims
as common-law wife, and the pension
was allowed.
This ruling is considered highly i'm.
portant because of the precedent es-
tablished, for it is believed that there
are number Of analogous cases in
this state.

1T am getting tired of being called
upon for statements of the condition of
the private banks that have failed in
this state recently, and being held ac-
countable for their trouble" said Pub
lie Examiner Johnson yesterday in
conversation with T he G o e.
81 have no more jurisdiction over
banks of that class" he continued,
than 1 have over any other kind Of
private business establishment, and
have no more authority to examine
into their affairs than poundmaster
has. Their business is strictly of a
private character and not under any
government supervision, and if the
funds Entrusted to them are misappro
priated it is not even felony.
There have been. seven private
bank failures in this state recently
two at Duluth, one at Carleton, one at
Cloquet, one at Montgomery, and two
in Faribault county, One of the latter
was the Faribault County bank, which
had been established thirty-five years,
and was capitalized for 100000.
