the machinery of the law in mo-

A "HERO" SAVES "IOOTS"
An Arrest and a Death Sentence
Averted by Timely
Flight.

Her name is Toots. She is favorite
member Of an opera company now play
ing an engagement In this city. She Is
frolicsome. petite and debonair, with
laughing brown eyes and black curling
locks. Tho not starred by the manage
ment, this parcel Of femininity occupies
a secure place in the affections of the
whole company. Toots is the particular
delight of George Thomas, one of the
lighting men so gallant and gay" In
fact, the affair between George and Toots
has reached such an advanced stage that
they are seldom seen apart.
A few days ago George was leisurely
strolling down the street near his hotel.
Toots, as usual, accompanied him, when
suddenly big, rough looking man, wear
ing a nickle plated star, leaped lightly
from wagon and swiftly approached
the devoted couple. ...-l..E
Being just from New York and not used
to strenuous western ways George was
somewhat aghast as the big, burly. indi-
vidual made directly for Toots and with
out ceremony prepared to place her under
arrest for what cause he did not state.
This thoroly aroused the fighting mans
blood and George to the rescue was
sounded Sir" he said, you must have
made mistake. What do you mean by
this outrage? If you go step further you
will have your hands full Of trouble.
the officer. So.
II guess you don't" snapped George,
and then believing that discretion was the
better part Of valor he lifted Toots lightly
in his arms and darted away into the
crowd which had gathered and made good
his escape, while the officer muttered,
He'll get license or I'll have that dog
yet" But "he'' hasn't secured license.
Toots is a dog, an intelligent cocker
spaniel with more accomplishments than
most CANNES. She Is the mascot of the
opera company and the manager says
that he would rather lose almost any
member Of the cast than the little curly
haired canine. r.. a..
Mr.. Thomas bought his little pet when
she was but a few weeks old. He raised
her on a bottle. Toots Is probable the
most travelled dog in the country, having
been three times to the Pacific coast, three
times to Winnipeg, three times TO south
ern Florida, in all having travelled about
5000 miles during her short career.

The organization of the Central Asso-

ment in the. ability of the individual to
govern himself, was completed last night
by the election Of officers for the execu-
tive assembly.
j. H. Abroms Of s213 .Aldrich avenue s,
was elected president; w. F. Houk of 1884
Dupont avenue 8, was made vice presi-
dent, and John M. Norris of 1900 Garfield
avenue, was made secretary. Mr.. Norris,
who holds what is probably the most i'm
portant office within the gift of the or
ganization, has offices at 525 Kasota
block, and will attend to the clerical work.
The association now includes in it's
membership practically every man living
In the district bounded by Girard and
Pillsbury avenues and Twenty eighth and
Thirty fourth streets, and has probably
the most perfect system Of organization
ever tried in the city. The block is the
unit, the blocks are divided into districts
and each district has an organization of
its own, the executive assembly.
A meeting of the presidents Of the dis
trict assemblies will be held Friday even
ing at the Lyndale Congregational church
at which time the constitution and by
laws drawn up by Frederick B. Lathrop
and adopted by the executive assembly
will be presented and discussed, and the
association will be fairly started on it's
career. ;.5 - -

PURSUED BY TROUBLES
Fitzgerald Family's Remarkable
S. Series Of Misfortunes.

William Fitzgerald who was killed at
the street railway power house last Sat-
urday, was the Victim of misfortune.
Last November he was burned in a gas
explosion and nearly lost his life. A year
before he fell several stories from the
Chamber Of Commerce building where he
was employed. He was a %widower for
thirteen years and married woman who
had been widow for thirteen years. He
was the father of seven children born
within five years, there being three pairs
of twins.
Mrs. Fitzgerald has also had her share
Of misfortune. At the time Of the acct
dent in which her husband was killed
she was visiting a. brother at Morris,
Mimi, and answered the phone that told
Of her husbands death. She tainted and
the shock of the news caused her father
who was mentally unbalanced to; regain
his reason. While on the way to the fu-
neral, she and a brother were injured
in the Great Northern wreck near Dassel,
Mimi, and her shoulder was dislocated.
Three days before her husbands death
her eldest son, aged 5 years, was lost
in the cornfelds near Morris and was
found the next morning sleeping by the
roadside

IS LARGEST In THE WEST
New Power-House of Street Railway
Company Will Be in Operation
January /.

] The street railway company expects to
complete the brick work on the new
power-house Oct. Is, and to be able to
turn on the current Jan. l.. 1t will be
the largest station west Of Chicago. The
capacity Is twenty-four boilers and five
engines Twelve boilers and three engines
will be installed now. Six boilers are al
ready in place. "A fly-wheel generator
engine, 5000 horse power, is being set
now. The weight of each of the three
engines will be about 500 TONS.
After the new power plant is started
the few overhead feed wires which remain
down town will be removed. Already
wires have been put underground to re-
place them as soon as the new power
house Is in use. 1t will not be necessary
for the station at Eleventh street to be
completed first.
Instead of tunneling under Hennepin
avenue, the company has put tunnel rs
feet beneath Tenth avenue. At Fourth
street these wires come to the surface
conduits in a shaft and from that point
diverge. On the East Side the feed wires
are distributed in similar manner. In
st. Paul the company is spending immense
sums In conduits and Monday the work
of lowering the feed wires to the conduits
begins. Conduits from Minneapolis to the
st. Paul station at College and Wabasha
were laid some time ago.
The street railway company is taking
smother precaution for the safety Of pas
sengers. Each large car is being equipped
with red tail oil lights. Formerly it was
possible to distinguish an interurban car
by the red lights, but the same precaution
against rear end collisions at night in case
the electric lights go out is being taken
on all the lines. The work began before
fair week, when all cars on the Como -Har-
riet line were fitted.
