would-be members must take is MOT
TO take treat from another. nor to
give one himself In any place where
drink is sold, whether public house,
bar. hotel or sheebeen."
The pledge does not hinder a mem
Der from offering a drink to friends in
his own house nor from taking one
himself at the house OF friend. II

STRIKING PLUMBERS
KEEP UP THEIR FIGHT
They Claim to Have Won Over Nearly
All New Men Brought to City.

The striking plumbers have adopted
aggressive, though peaceful tactics,
against the master plumbers who have
sought to end the strike BIZ importing
men from other cities to work in place
of the men on strike. The strikers
have organized themselves into vigil
lance committees, which watch every
building going up in the city. They
keep themselves posted on the arrival
of every man who comes to the city to
work for the master plumbers.
The master plumbers have SO far
imported forty-three men from other
cities, mostly from New York, where
the strike which is prevailing has put
many men out of work. The strikers
Immediately got busy, and after APP
preaching the imported men and ac-
quainting them with the situation here
have induced many to return to their
homes. In order to secure the depart
ure Of the men the Plumbers union
pays their travelling expenses to the
point from which they came
Gustav Meyers, secretary Of the local
union, announced last night that the
committees have prevailed upon thir-
ty-six of the importehd men to leave
the city and return to their homes.
The tenth week of the strike will
commence tomorrow, and there is no
indication of a weakening on either
side. The plumbers still demand the
increase of wages and the masters
have not yet come forward with any
overtures looking to compromise.
AS result a large number of people
building homes which they wish to oc-
cupy are suffering greatly. Business
houses, pressed for larger quarters, are
also inconyenienced.

HIS AFFECTIONS
ALARM HIS FRIENDS
Louis H. Jones Is Cared for in
the County Jail Because of
His Strange Actions.

Louis III. Jones, an insurance clerk
employed in a banking office in the
Pioneer Press building, was taken
into custody yesterday by the police
and was finally placed in the county
Jail for exhibiting marked symptoms
of mental alteration. The young man
was suffering from an affection of the
mind which produce illusions before
his eyes. He fancied he saw figures
on the wall, and imagined he was in
the presence of unseen persons. with
whom he conversed, to the terror Of
auditors.
Though not at all violent, Jones'
condition alarmed his fellow roomers.
at Selby avenue and st. Adams street,
where he had resided for a short while.
He imagined he saw pictures on the
walls and felt the presence of objects
and persons which were invisible to
all others.
The attention of Patrolman Lynch
was called to the mans condition yes
terday afternoon, and he took him In
charge, and after Jones was taken to
the station he was removed to the
county Jail.

STRENGTH IN FOOD.
A Woman's Work Made Easy by
Strenqth and Health.


A widow writes: when began to
use Grape-Nuts / had SO much trouble
with my stomach and was very ner-
vous and as I made my living by really
hard work I needed all the strength
possible, for I have two boys to sup
port.
81 began eating Grape Nuts simply
to try the food, but soon noticed that
my trouble was going and my ner-
vousness was much less, SO I continued
to use Grape-Nuts food with the result
that I am now entirely cured. Grape
Nuts always agreed with me. and when
work the hardest it seems to me en-
joy them and need them the most.
They satisfy me better and seem to do
me more good than meat.
My younger boy, who inherits a
weak constitution from his father, who
died of consumption, has been greatly
benefited by Grape Nuts. He makes his
breakfast of Grape-Nuts and milk and
the result Of this diet has been that his
stomach Is much stronger and his APP
petite increased, and altogether he is
like another boy.
II notice this about Grape Nuts that
when I eat them and go away to work
they seem to stay by me and sustain

Thirty years service with the same
regiment of cavalry, two long Indian
campaigns and three years service in
the Philippines, without gunshot
wound, is the fortunate record of First
Sergeant Richard H. White Troop A,
Third United States cavalry, retired.
Sergeant White was in st. Paul yes
terday on his way to Baltimore for a
three months visit before entering into
the enjoyment of life as civilian in
Southern California. Sergeant White
retired after thirty years service Aug.
8. He is fifty three years old, and en-
listed in Baltimore. his native city. in
1875. He was assigned to the Third
cavalry and has served six full enlist
ments with that command. a record
rather unusual with enlisted men re-
tired with thirty years service.
White was sent to Fort Mcpherson,
and in the spring of 1876 entered upon
three-year Indian campaign, COM
mencing with Rosebud Creek and end
ing with the Apache outbreak at Camp
Robinson. in 1879. He went with his
regiment to the Philippines in 1899,
and participated in all it's engage
ments incident to Gen. Young's expe-
dition through Northern and Central
Luzon, escaping without scratch.
Last year, en- route from Fort ASSN
niboine to Fort Yellowstone, the troop
train was wrecked. and Sergeant

ASKS THE COURT TO
TURN ON THE LIGHT
H. M. Comfort Brings. Suit
Against St. Paul Gas Co..
Counter Charges Made.

H. M. Comfort. who resides at 133
Smith avenue. yesterday applied to
Judge Bum, of the district court for a
writ of mandamus, compelling the ST
Paul Gas Light company to furnish
him with electricity for his house and
for a twelve-instrument telegraph line
which runs between Comforts house
and those of some Of his neighbors and
friends.
Judge Bum refused to issue the
writ compelling the company to fur
nish electricity to Comfort. and set the
case for hearing at the October term
Of court.
Comfort charges in his complaint
that the st. Paul Gas Light COM
pany and the st. Paul electrical in
spector are in conspiracy to deprive
him of his rights as a citizen.
The company, in its answer to the
complaint filed by Comfort, charges
him with tapping their wires, which
run into his house. and by means of his
telegraph lines conveying the current
to the houses of his neighbers. They
charge that he has collected $500 from
his neighbors for the electricity which
he has furnished to them at the ex-
pense of the company.
The company cut it's service out OF
Comforts house July 8, and the suit
brought by him was to compel them
to restore it.

BEvANS INSISTS
THAT HE is RIGHT
Night Have Used Wrong Name
of Fuel Dealer, but inspect

Everything I have said about st.
Paul being robbed through short
weights is true, but want to be cor
rected regarding the Northwestern
Fuel company, which I have been
quoted as saying furnished me with
information regarding the crooked ac-
lions of small fuel Dealers" said Mar
ket Master Bevans yesterday.
"Perhasp 1 used the name of this
company in trying to show the council
that the time was ripe for action. but
If 1 did so it was mistake" continued
Mr.. Bevans. Il had another fuel COM
pany in mind at the time
81 still insist, however. that st. Paul
is being robbed Of thousands of dollars
weekly by short weights. and if the
people are to be protected inspectors
should be named at once. The -other

1t had been sold for 1000 pounds, and
the ticket accompanying the load bore
the figures.
II advised him to protest, but he told
me it would not do any good. He said
the company woul tell him if he was
not satisfied to go somewhere else and
buy his coke"
what Mr.. Bevans asks for is the ap-
pointment of two salaried inspectors,
to be under the direction of either the
police or the health department. He
says they could halt any load and
weigh it, and then if it failed to tally
with the ticket arrests could be made.

NORTHERN PACIFIC
WILL CONTEST RAISE
IN ITS ASSESSMENT
Attorneys Hold That Contracts
for Sale of Land Which May
Never Be Fulfilled Are Not
AssessabIe = Double Tax
Would Result,

The Northern Pacific Railroad COM
pany will go into the courts and fight
the increased assessment made against
it at the final meeting of the county
board of equalization yesterday. The
increase amounted to 100000, and was
| made on contracts held by the COM
pany for the sale of lands in North
Dakota.
The company has large land holdings
in North Dakota and some time ago
entered into conditional contract
with the Boynton- Hackney Land COM
pany for the sale of something like
100000 worth of the land. These con-
trao+s are III the possession of the
company and it was decided by the
board of equalization that the company
should be assessed on the contracts.
County Assessor Conley is of the
opinion that the contracts are assess
able, and it was upon his motion that
the increase was made. The Northern
Pacific, however, disagrees with AS
SCISSOR Conley as to the legality of the
assessment.
General Counsel Bum, of the North
ern Pacific, was out of the city yester-
day md other members of the COM
pany,s legal department were not pre-
pared to say just what action would
be taken by him regarding the assess
ment.
1t is understood, however, and from
an authoritative source, that the COM
pa,iy will contest the legality of the
assessment In the courts. The COM
pany contends that the contracts are
not assessable, for the reason that they
are conditional and the company may
never realize a dollar on them.
The company admits that 1t has
made contracts with the Boynton-
Hackney company for the sale of the
land but the land is not yet perma-
-nently disposed of, and may at any
time revert to the Northern Pacific.
Taxes are being paid on the land and
for this reason the company contends
that 1t should not be compelled to pay
taxes on contracts which may never
be fulfilled.
eff we can be compelled to pay taxes
on the contracts here In Minnesota,
see no reason why We could not be
compelled to pay taxes on the same
contracts in Montana or in any other
state in which we do business" said a
representative of the company yester-
day. "Our company is not a Minnesota
corporation and there is no more rea-
son why we should be taxed on these
contracts here than there Is why we
should be taxed or them elsewhere.
Our company is firmly convinced that
the assessment is not legal, and even in
the absence of Mr.. Bum, our general
counsel, it is safe to say that the mat
ter will be contested in the courts"

FUNDS ARE SHORT
TO MEET DEMANDS
FOR DITCH LOANS
State Board Finds That 1t VIII
Have to Refuse for This
Year Aid Asked for by a
Number of Counties in Order
to Protect School Fund.

The state board of Investment will
probably be compelled to refuse nu-
merous applica tions for county ditch
climate drafts on the permanent
school fund.
Loans to counties for the construc-
ton of bitches was one of the chief
topics of discussion at a meeting of
the investment board yesterday. The
ditch loans have proved unexpectedly
popular. Loans made this year aggre-
gate 100000, and if only the expected
income is derived by the state the
board will have not to exceed 100000
with which to meet all the authorized
loans up to May 1, 1904.
The board has now on hand about
100000 The mineral land leases and
royalties are expected to produce about
$4,000, and from other sources the
total at the disposal of the board may
reach 100000, according to the esti-
mates of Auditor Iverson. The mem
bers of the board are anxious to make
as many ditch loans as possible, for
while at a 3 per cent rate the ditch
loans are not as profitable directly as
other loans, all of which are at per
cent, they are profitable Indirectly in
increasing valuations.
The board originally hoped to make
a large number of small ditch loans.
and at the same time be able to protect
the school districts, townships and
counties desiring authorized loans for
other purposes. Marshall county took
100000 for bitches, Polk $91 900 and
Meelker $4,000, which leaves the board
in a position practically compelling it
to refuse or materially scale down the
large number of applications now
pending or expected.

DASHING SOCIETY
WOMAN IS MURDERED
Kansas City Man, After Shooting His
Wife, Ends His Own Existence.

KANSAS CITY. Mo-. Aug. 15.-
George B. Evans. manager of the
American Transfer company, murder
ed his wife, Mrs. Lille Maude Evans,
in a most cold-blooded manner at their
home early today. Later he was found
dead in Mount st. Mary's cemetery,
two miles distant, having shot himself.
Mrs. Evans was attacked as she lay
asleep. According to the hired girl,
the only witness to the tragedy, Evans
entered his wife's apartments at about
daylight and fired two shots at her.
Neither took effect, and then, dragging
Mrs. Evans toward him by the hair. he
placed his revolver against the back of
her neck and fired. The shot literally
blew the woman'S head off.
Evans escaped. and his body was
found only after several hours search.
Mrs. Evans, who was twenty-six
years old, was society woman. She
was married to Evans in 1898. Last
Wednesday she filed suit for divorce,
alleging drunkenness and cruelty, and
brought suit demanding that her hus-
band pay $500 for rent of the barn
occupied by the company of which he
is manager. The property, Mrs. Evans
asserts, belonged to her. and in addi-
ton she asked an order restraining
Evans from disposing of two valuable
race horses and other property which
she said also belonged to her.
Mrs. Evans attracted much atten-
ton last March, during the Transfers
strike, by driving one of her husband
transfer wagons which the regular
driver refused to take out of the barns
for fear of violence at the hands of
the strikers. Mrs. Evans made several
trips between her husbands barns and
the freight houses, driving fearlessly
through crowds Of jeering strikers.
Once, when some of the strikers tried
to cut the horses traces, she dashed
the men with her whip and proceeded
without being further molested. Two
years ago Mrs. Evans gained notoriety
by horsewhipping man who had at
tempted to f1irt with her.
MS. Evans had feared that her hus-
band would kill her, and last night
locked the door of her room when she
retired, but unfastened it during the
night to gain fresh air. Evans evil
IDENTIFY had planned the tragedy DELHI
erately. He spent the night in a neigh
boring saloon. Returning home, he
entered the house through the pantry
window.
Miss Bette Burns, neighbor, slept
with Mrs. Evans and rGrrowly escaped
being struck by the bullets fired at
the latter. Miss Burns awoke, aroused
by the Shots and climbing over the
dead DOdy OF neT companion, minute
later saw Evans standing in the CEN
ter of the room. In the confusion he
left the room unnoticed.
Evans was born in Kentucky thir-
ty-eight ago and his father was sier-
if of Breathitt county. Evans had
lived in Kansas City for many years
and is said to have been married twice
before. He married Lille Maude Per-
ry, the sixteen-year-old daughter Of
Mrs. E. C. Perry, widow of Argen-
tine. Kan. Evans built up a prosper
Gus transfer business from $4,000 CIV
en- him by the woman he killed.

MANY HOUSES GO UP,
BUT FEW FOR RENT
Building in ST. Paul This Year
Is Almost Entirely of
Homes.

Not over a dozen houses have been
built so far this year in st. Paul for
rental purposes. Hundreds of resi-
dences have been erected, but in nearly
every instance they have been, erected
for occupany by the owners.
People with money do not care to
erect houses simply to rent them any
more" said City Building Inspector
Ellerbe yesterday. IF they build any
at all it is to dispose of them as soon
as they are completed. The favorite
method nowadays is to build houses
and sell them on the installment plan.
Hundreds of homes are erected and
disposed of on this plan yearly
st. Paul, according to Mr.. ElIerbe, is
facing serious problem just now in
the shape of a dearth of residences to
rent. Every rental agency in the city
Is receiving calls daily for such prop
erty, but is unable to meet the demand.
Capital simply refuses to meet the de-
mand.
Buildings that year ago cost $4,000
to build, now call for an inves tment Of
$4,000, and this, Mr.. Ellerbe thinks, is
the reason there are so few investors.
