FIRST WAROERS
WANT THINGS DONE
viii File a Bunch of Requests
Through Committees APP
pointed Last Evening.

Better roads, better car service. bet
ter lighting of the principal streets OF
the ward, the removal of dead" tele-
phone poles from Payne avenue, the
prompt finishing of the grading OF
Forest street, were some of the things
demanded at the meeting of the First
Ward Improvement association last
night. The gas franchise proposed by
by Corporation Attorney Michael was
approved in a resolution which will be
forwarded to the council.
Fearing that the lamp-post contro-
versy before the council may result in
a period of darkness in those sections
of the city Illuminated by gasoline
lights, the association adopted a resO-
luton urging the council to "see that
the city is not left in the dark"
That better roads were needed in
and beyond the ward was strongly
urged, and a committee, consisting of
John Korngable and A. Hudalla, was
appointed to confer with the county
commissioners in reference TO improve
mentS.
Want Forest Street Grade Completed.
The grading of Forest street was I'M
der discussion, and it was decided that
an effort SnOulu De llldue 10 nave II
completed this fall instead of next
spring. A committee, consisting of G.
E. Hillstrom, c. S. Berg and l.. w.
Fahlgren, will urge the contractor TO
complete the work before the ground
freezes. The work is partly completed.
but it was said that one hill still re-
mains to be graded through, and it was
pointed out that quite a long time
would elapse before the work could be-
finished. 1t was feared that if it was
not finished before the frost that the
street railway company might not have
the opportunity to lay tracks as soon
as spring set in.
More arc lights on Payne avenue
were urged, and more street lamps i'm
the section of the ward in the vicinity
of Lake Phalen were demanded. John
Korngable, A. Hudalla, r. O. Earl.
Walter Munich and n. J. Schroeder
were appointed as a committee to Sc
cure better lighting for the ward.
Big cars and better service on the
Mississippi street line were demanded.
and a committee of three, Charles A.
FOwble V. c. Sundberg and Charles
Skuglund, was appointed to secure
them.
Dead telephone poles along Payne
avenue, where conduits have been laid.
We're objected to, and a committee con-
sisting of f. Holcomb, A. Lindau and
E. johnson was appointed to secure the
removal of the poles.

Commercial Club Asks
Conference Committee to
Include That Sum in Bud
get Plan Is to Extend
Armory Building SO as to
Provide Seating Capacity
for $4,000.

An auditorium larger than anything
west of Chicago is promised st. Paul
if the city council will appropriate
$40, 900 for that purpose.
The scheme is to extend the new
armory, now under construction on
West Sixth street sixty feet, making
the structure cover an entire half
block.
The plans would provide an audito-
rum 40 by 1870 feet, capable of seat
ing $4,000 persons. Madison Square
Garden, New York city's largest place
of entertainment, will care for but a
few more thousand people.
The scheme has the Endorsement of
the Commercial club and was vigorous
Iy advocated by a committee from that
body before the conference committee
Yesterday afternoon The committee
asked that $4,000 be placed in the
budget with which to carry out the
project.
Inasmuch as the conference commit
tee already has before it a request
from the armory board for an appro-
priation of $47 900 odd, with which to
complete the armory under the present
plans, the members were somewhat
taken back when the request for an ad-
ulIIO1dl 9fO,OUU was VI CoCilCo' I%AeOA
the committee relented to the extent OF
seeing the whole matter in a favorable
light and gave indications of future in
dorsement.
Gen. ChiIds Makes a Plea.
Speeches favoring the appropria-
ton were made by Secretary Slime. OF
the Commercial club; DR.. A. A. Doolit-
tie, Maj. George Lambert and others,
but the most convincing talk came
from former Attorneye General Childs,
who informed the committee that if it
did not act it would be throwing away
a chance that might not come in a
lifetime.zg nt ee15eS as-sY9
Gentlemen, st. Paul has a chance
now to secure an auditorium for $4,000
that probably Will never again come its
way" said Gen. Childs. "You are con-
structing an armory. You have got to
complete it, and we propose that you
add $4,000 more and extend it sixty
feet. This will give us meeting
place capable of seating $4,000 people.
larger than anything west of Chicago.
1t is your only chance to give this city
an auditorium. If you pass it by the
plans cannot again be duplicated for

Two Ministers Take Seats
in the Meeting of the
Ysbt -
Trades and Labor Assem-
bly, and Participate in the
Deliberations of That
Body.-AssembIy lndorses
Michael Gas Ordinance.

"The church may do much to ad-
vance the cause of organized labor,
and may aid greatly in improving the
condition Of the workingman. In the
hope Of learning the true conditions
that confront the toilers and with a
view of gaining knowledge of the
problems and difficulties they have be-
fore them that real assistance may
be given, the ministry has decided to
take part in the deliberations of the
unions
Goodrich Avenue Presbyterian church,
pastor of Grace M E. church, took a
seat last night at the meeting of the
Trades and Labor assembly at Fed
Grafton hall, explained in those words
the reason for the step which the
clergymen Of the various denomina-
tons have taken in becoming men,
bers of the union body.
1--WE want to get into direct touch
with the worker, and we want to know
what his desires are and what he is
contending with that we may lend our
assistance" continued Rev. Mr.. Mitch
ell. 1.-THE ministry may be of great
service in these days of strife, and the
only way in which the pastors may
know the needs of the men is by COM
ing directly into contact with them,
by sharing in their deliberations, and
by learning the actual conditions.
'The men, too, may be taught that
the church is not opposed to their in
terests, but is DESTROYS of securing
everything which may improve them,

FLOWER SHOW CLOSES
WITH FINE DISPLAY
japanese Night Drew Largest Crowd of
All at Mozart Hail.

In beautiful display of chrysan-
themums and kimonos the flower show
came to an end last night. So success
full was the exhibition and so literally
was it patronized by the people of ST
Paul that thereafter it will be an an
nual event.
Mozart hall was taxed to its capac-
ity last evening. Although large
crowds attended the show on the three
preceding nights, the banner attend
ance was last night.
More than 100 young women wearing
beautiful kimonos were present at last
evenings exhibit. Equally conspicu-
GUS was the gorgeous display of chry-
santhemums and other flowers The
closing night was set aside for the Jap
anese exhibit, and although the dis
plays of the other nations were beauti-
full, the Oriental evening was the most
picturesque of all.
The exhibit last evening was in
charge of Mrs. Lou D. Wilkes and Mrs.
Archibald MacLaren. They We're as
sisted by the Misses Gertrude Hill,
Margaret Judson, Winifred Holbert,
Helen Dean, Nan Sloan. Livingston,

w. S.Ferguson Sues the Omaha
for $4,000 Damages.

The $4,000 personal injury damage
suit brought against the Omaha road
by William S. Ferguson is still on trial
before Judge Brill in the district court,
and owing to the large amount in
volved, the case is being most stub
bornly fought.
The paintiff is suing for injuries al
legged to have been sustained as the re-
suit of collision between two of the
defendant company's trains near Hay
ward, Wis. Ferguson was a passenger
on one of the trains, and, according
to the story told by him, he was thrown
forward in the car, receiving injuries
which caused paralysis. The paraly-
sis is said to have been the result of
an injury to the spinal column.
The defendant company produced
evidence to show that Ferguson had
been the victim of many previous in
juries, and affidavits made by him at
times when he was applying for pen
sion were produced in court
In making these affidavitS Ferguson
swore that injuries received by him
in the army were responsible for his
ailments, but when questioned regard
ing these statement, he said he had
not paid much attention to what he
was signing"
1t was also shown where Ferguson
had fallen in ditch at Hayward, Wis,
receiving injuries for which he recov-
cred $4,000 from the city. At that time
he claimed to have injured his spinal
column
1t was also brought out by testimony
that Ferguson had been victim of
two fires, by which two Of his homes
were burned.
In producing this line of evidence
the defense is attempting to prove that
Ferguson was injured before the COL
lision on the Omaha.
Ferguson is in court and walks with
the aid of two canes. The case will
probably go to the Jury Monday.

DEFENDS NEW RULE
Superintendent Smith Thinks
1t Is Necessary.

In case of the adoption of proposed
new rule, now under consideration by
the board of education, it will be i'm
possible for a teacher to qualify in this
city for high school position in the
city schools. The rule would require
successful experience of two years as
a teacher in a high school as a condi-
ton to appointment to a position as
teacher in one of the st. Paul high
schools. To get that exper' ence the
candidate would be obliged to go to
some city not so exacting in its re-
quirements.
This rule will be one of the important
features of the board meeting of We'd
nesday afternoon next. 1t was intro
duced at the last regular meeting and
laid over under the rules.
Under the rules as they are at pres
ent graduate of any approved college
is eligible to any position in the schools
of this city without examination and
without previous experience In Eject
the new rule will require that any APP
plicant to be eligible to a position in a
grade school must have had either pre-
fessional training as a teacher or sue
cessful experience of two years. Col
lege graduates will not be required to
take examinations for these positions.
Under the new rule an applicant for
q teachers position in a high school
must be a graduate of a college or uni
versity, or hold a first grade profess
sional certificate; must have taught
successfully for at least two years, and
must have taken an examination to
show fitness for the special work of
the position to be filed.
Supt. Smith, when asked yesterday
if he did not consider these conditions
somewhat severe said:
"They will seem so, but to a great
extent the adoption of this policy is
necessary as a matter of self-5efenSe.
Minneapolis requires experience of
three years, and while our department
permits appointments without expert
ence, it is at disadvantage. The st.
Paul board has been freely criticised
for appointing teachers without eXpe-
rience, and this certainly is rot n~ces-
sary, for the department is oVerrun
with applications from experienced
teachers every year."
The rule is open to amendment be-
fore its adoption by the board, and it
is likely that some changes will be
made, although thus far none of the
members have declared such inten-
ton.
Another reported matter to come up
at this meeting is the time of the re-
moval of the school board 10 tie offices
ference committee has allowed tho es-
innate of $4,000 for reconstruction OF
the new quarters, it is expected that
the board will direct it's superintendent
of buildings to proceed with that work

TURNS BOARD DOWN
Budget Committee Refuses
Appropriation Asked.

The city water department may in
crease rates for water.
Michael Doran, the water boards
president, yesterday Informed the con-
ference committee that if provision is
not made for betterments that are alb
solutely necessary, the board will have
to obtain the money by raising the
water rate.
Out of the profits the board is now
paying $4,000 a year interest, is add
ing to its sinking fund and extending
its mains, but the headwaters must be
improved. Three years of considerable
moisture, the board Informed the COM
mittee yesterday, had kept st. PauPs
supply of water intact, but drought
may come at any time.
Mr.. Doran asked for 100000, a sum
it is entitled to under the law which
says that the city shall pay a reason
able hydrant rent, but the amount was
refused
"Wen, then, we shall have to get it
out of the consumers" said Mr.. Doran.
"There are betterments that must be
made. and we will have to get the
money"
81 always thought the water depart
licut WdS a paying IHStlIullOil, -Sl1u
Mayor Smith. Il am sorry you have
exposed your weakness" he added.
1--WE are very sorry you have ex-
posed your dishonesty" answered Mr..
Doran, with some warmth. IF the city
paid what it owes we would not have
to ask for anything"
During the discussion it developed
that the business section of the city
is practically getting it's fire protec-
ton for nothing. Not one of the large
buildings or factories obtains its water
from the city. All have artesian wells.
The small consumers pay the bill
This was one argument used by Mr..
Doran in asking for an appropriation.

This is the day of practical affairs,
and religion may be as useful at the
forge, in the factory, the workshop,
the office, on the street, as in the home
and in the church."
The assembly, after considerable
discussion, voted in favor of indorsing
the proposed gas franchise drawn by
Corporation Attorney Michael, as
through it municipal control of the
lighting plant may be ultimately gained.
The members of the assembly were
strongly in favor of securing the pla=:t,
but were of the opinion that, as it
would be impossible to acquire it at
the present time, the ordinance pre-
pared by the corporation attorney
should be adopted.
A committee consisting of c. w.
Douglass Hugo Koch, E. B. Lott, H.
w. Goetzinger and James McGarry was
appointed to attend the council meet
ing to notify the members of the po-
sition of the assembly on the question.

COURTS BUSY WITH
PERSONAL INJURY SUITS
Michael Cooley Loses Action Against g.
E. KEGS for Damages for Assault.

Michael Goley lost his suit for $500
damages against George E. KEGS, the
plumber, whom he charged with as
saulting him. The case was on trial
before Judge Kelly and jury in the
district court, but before a conclusion
was reached Judge Kelly directed a
verdict for the defendant, holding that
Cooley had not shown sufficient cause
for action.
Judge Bum is engaged in hearing the
personal injury damage suit brought
against the West Publishing company
by H. L. Mills, in his capacity as guard
ian of Frank Gabriel, a minor, who
was employed by the West company.
Gabriel had one of his hands injured
while running a COMPRISING machine,
and it was claimed that the machinery
was defective. Damages in the sum
of $4,000 are asked for.

RECEIVES FUNDS FOR
SOLDIERS HOME
Allowance for Quarter Ended Sept. 80
Amounts to $4,557.

State Auditor Iverson has received from
the national government $4,557.50 as the
amount due toward the maintenance of
the soldiers home for the quarter ending
Sept. 80.
The government allows $500 per year
for each inmate, but deducts from that
amount one-half of the amount of each
inmates pension. The number of in
mates in the Minnesota home this year is
241, and therefore the full amount due for
the quarter would be s6,025; but from
that amount was deducted s1,467.5O on
account of pensions.
