DIR. Conrad Relandia, president of the
relief committee of the province Of Ulea-
borg, Finland, and special representative
Of the national board of health, has been
| travelling in the famine district since ear
ly i'll January. Following are extracts
from letters he has written concerning
the condition of the starving people: T
''At the instance of the national board
Of health and with the commission of the
government, left Uleaborg on Jan. 6 to
learn the condition of the people in the
district of Kajana- 1 reached the first ap-
| pointed meeting in due time and found
sixty peasants waiting for me. l learned
from them that there was a general lack

| their cows. partly for want of fodder and
partly to keep their families from starv-
ing. One-fourth to one-third of the milk
cows have been killed.
| Most of the farms here in Kylmala are
SMALL and the peasants are said to be in
dustrious, even women taking part in till
ing the soil, which is poor and sandy.
The chief income is from the dairy prod
ucts, but this is small this year. The
peasants of Kylmala do not ask for aims.
They are in need Of work and do not ask
for more, but it is hard to provide suitable
labor at this time of the year.
| Sad news reached me while in the vi
cinity of the Church of Saarimaki, where
Sheriff Brander had just visited three fam
lilies, each consisting of a widow and from
five to six children, who for three days
had not had anything to eat but bark
flowers and soup made from rotten pota-
toes taken last fall with crowbars from
the frozen ground. They had attempted
to make flour from straw with a hand
stone. Besides these three families there
were in the vicinity, according to a mem
ber of the local relief committee, smaller
families in similar circumstances. I took
care that these families received a suffi-
cient supply of -four

MAKE A RICH HAUL
Thieves Take Goods Worth 81, 500
From M. Lees Ladies Tailor
ing Establishment.
Also Get $86 in Cash-Burglars
Carefully Select the New
est Patterns.

One of the boldest robebries reported in
Minneapolis for several months was com
mitted last night when thieves entered
the ladies' tailoring establishment Of M.
Lee, so Syndicate block, and carried away
over $500 worth Of goods, besides $S6 in
cash which had been left in the cash
drawer. They gained an entrance by
crawling through the transom and SO
carefully did they work that their pres
ence was not" discovered by the night
watchman.
Mr.. Lee had just received his spring
stock and had over $500 worth Of cloth
OH his shelves. The thieves went through
this carefully and selected nearly all the
latest patterns, taking about half the
stock They also carried away several
bolts Of satin Innings kept in cupboard
In the stock room.
The robbery puzzles those who have in
vestigated it. The goods taken made a
large bulk and how thieves succeeded in
getting them from the building without be-
ing seen by the officer on the beat or by
pedestrians is a wonder. It is thought
however, that the stuff may have beer
lowered into a wagon and hauled away.
The raid. coming at this season of the
year, Is particularly hard upon Mr.. Lee
He had just received his spring stock anc
all his new patterns have been taken. Il
will necessitate the purchase of an entire
new stock Of goods and the cannot arrive
In time for the Easter trade.

GOVERNMENT DAM POWER
Likely to Be Utilized in Lighting
Fort Smelling,

Congressman F. c. Stevens Of st. Paul
submitted yesterday to the war depart
ment at Washington plans for installing
an electric plant on the st. Paul side of
the Mississippi at the foot Of the big dam
now being built across the river above the
Marshall avenue bridge. The object of
this plant would be to supply electric light
to Fort Smelling and to the federal build
ings in the twin cities. Mr.. Stevens is
supported by Major Hoxie, U. S. A., and
other engineers in the belief that such a
plant would save the government much
money every year.
Although constructed solely to improve
the navigation of the river, the Marshall
avenue or Meeker island dam, ninety one
feet wide and 521 feet long, will provide
an important water power. The stage OF
water will be raised thirteen feet. Enough
power will be secured, it is asserted, to
furnish all the electrical energy required
for public and private enterprise in both
st. Paul and Minneapolis. More than one
corporation has been trying to secure the
opportunity which the government itself
will utilize If Mr.. Stevens is not disap-
pointed.

PROBABLY COUNTER FEIT.

1t is automatically reported that
lady from MiddleseX, whose name is
Maloney. barely escaped being fleeced
of ten dollars in cold cash on circus
day. The circumstances of the case
are as follows: Mrs. Maloney was
on the circus ground walking around
when a young man accosted her and
asked her if she would kindly change
ten dollar bin for him. She, not
being suspicious of any trickery, took
her pocket book and counted out the
amount, handed it to the man and re-
ceived the bill. a man standing near,
who saw the transaction, said: ~ GU
had better not change that bill. lady,
it is counterfeit. L feel sure, and you
will lose the money" Upon hearing
this she demanded her money back and
when the man hesitated to return it
the one who had given the warning
took hold of his collar and pointed to
a sheriff who was standing not far
distant, telling him if he did not give
her the money back he would call the
officer, Upon this the man became
frightened, gave back the money, took
the bill and cleared out. The young
man who rendered the assistance to
the lady is not known but he did not
carry out his Investigations sufficiently
when he had his man.

ton, twelve arrested for drunkenness
or distuIban of the peace and the
arrest of circus employe for collect
ing pay Of boys and letting them crawl
under the tent to see the circus were
the results of circus.day here.
William A. Riley of Ludlow, who

dent iii a badly intoxicated condition

cars to move them ana it was not
noticed that Riley was under them.
His body was dragged some distance
and finally derailed the car it was un-
der, which led to it's discovery.

DRUNKS GALORE.

Burlington, July 23,-The excessive
use of liquor on Wednesday resulted in
one girl being run over by hack and
badly injured, one man being knocked
down by the same hack and badly
bruised, and the landing of twelve
men in jail for intoxicatiuu.
Arthl II Bissett was engaged by A.
@. Collins as hack driver, Wednesday,
He drank freely and after the circus
was over succeeded in running over a
man from Grand Isle. That individ-
ual was induced to settle with Collins
upon the payment OF So, although his
clothes were ruiped. Bissett also ran
over a young girl, who was seriously
injured. He was then arrested.
The saloons began to do big bust
ness early in the day and before noon
the streets were supplied with DRINKS
but no arrests were made until after
noon. There were large number of
special police on duty that day but
the police service was the worst in
the city in years. Complaints were
received at the Office all day long but
there seemed to be no head to the de-
partment and the complaints were al
lowed to 90 almost unnoticed. OF the
men arrested Sheriff Horton secured
several, taking two from under the
very noses of the officers at the police
station.
A fracas occurred about 10 o clock
at the corner of Church and College
streets. A man was driving down the
street in team and as his horse came
within short distance of some ladies
who were standing in the crowd, one
of the men took hold of the horse's
headstall and guided him away from
the crowd; whereupon the driver
jumped from the wagon and proceeded
to give the man a severe punching.
After completing his work he leaped
into his team and drove on. At thu
lower end of North street, two DRINKS
became mixed up in scrap, and, after
battering each other to their hearts
content, were separated by onlookers.

FATAL ACCIDENT.

John O. Sweeney of st. Adams, con-
ductor of the White Mountain Ex-
press between Montpelier and Bur-
lington, died at the hospital in st.
Adams on Saturday morning as the re-
suit of an accident at Waterbury on
Friday afternoon AS he WAS board

The serious result of the accident
comes as great blow to the friends
of Mr.. Sweeney in this city and all
along the line where he is well known.
lie was considered one of the most
efficient ana careful conductors ON the
Ioad having been in the employ of
the Central Vermont for over twenty
years, and for several years prior to
this summer he has run on the pay car
and on the special st. Lawrence train
during spare time. 1t is reported that
his daughter is seriously i'll at her
home in st. Adams at this time.
The details of the accident follow
AS Mr.. Sweeney was attempting to
board his train which he had just sig
nailed to start, he misjudged the dis
lance of the railing which he usually
grasped in getting on the car and went
down between the coach and parlur
car, the wheels of the latter passing
over his foot and crushing it so badly
that amputation was necessary. Mr.
Sweeney's presence of mind in catch
ing hold of the car saved him from a
horrible death. The accident was no.
ticed at once by the train men and the
injured man was quickly rescued from
lis precarious position. He was taken
at once to the hospital in st. Adams,
where the amputation was performed
and his death occurred shortly after.
