The opposition to the charter does not
appear to have been any more active
than the negative vote upon the filtra-
tion bonds. The latter were opposed by
3, 1919 voters, while the charter was neg
atived by 1926.
The large discrepancy between the
total number of votes cast upon the
charter and the total number of votes
for mayor is significant of the general
connection with charter affairs.

NEW CLUB PLAN
AT MINNETONKA
NEAR HOTEL ST.
LOUIS TALKED>OF.
MinnetonlSa Club May Erect, New
House on the Island and Substan-
tial Docks and Auto Sheds on the
Mainland, Also Park the Gibson
Property.

The island in st. Louis bay, at Lake
Minnetonka, on which the Minneton-
ka clubhouse stood, has been put in
good shape and is not such DESC
late spot as it was for a long time
after the fire. Theodore Wetmore, the
owner, has had the shore riprapped,
the burned trees taken out, the ground
leveled off and the. surviving trees
cared for.
Big plans for club near the site
of the Hotel ST. Louis are being dis
cussed informally The promoters Of
the idea would have a substantial
dock sheathed in sheet iron and pro-
vided with stalls to accommodate
many gasolene launches. On the
ground floor there would be stalls for
members automobiles, and on the
third floor a danclngroom. On the
island would be a clubhouse connect
ed with the dancing pavilion by an
area way. After removing the ho-
tel, the place would be parked and
made into a Tuxedo. The plan calls
further for a fine road leading di-
which should be scraped over and
rounded up once in two weeks.
The combined attractions would
make the two places very popular. BY
placing the dancing pavilion separate
and on the shore, it would not be nee
essary to tear UP the club lounging-
room hop nights, as was done in the
old house. The width of the channel
would keep the confusion and noise
from the club proper and make it a
desirable resort. Previous to build
ing a club the island would be
widened fifteen feet and the club
would be that much larger than the
old building.
Should the Milwaukee finally aban-
don the lake run in favor of the street
railway, it would be the plan to park
the lake frontage where the station
now stands and make a beautiful
landscape away from the site Of the
present hotel to the waters edge.

ESCAPED THRICE
in The TORNADO
AMY AND PETTINGILL PURSUED
BY THE WIND.
Their Tent Blown Away, They Are
Driven from One Place to Another
in Search of Refuge-Wild Night
for Campers at Lake Minnetonl1a..

Will Amy of the city engineers de-
partment figures that he escaped
death at least three times in the big
blow of last Saturday. All storm
stories are mere nursery. tales to him
now, for to his mind the experiences
he went thru on that fearsome night
will measure with any other tale ever
told Of thrilling hair-breadth escapes.
With his friend, Charlie Pettingill,
Mr.. Amy was tenting on the east
shore of Carmans bay, opposite
Spring Park, Lake Minnetonka, and
had just made the ropes taut around
the camp when things began moving.
The ropes held awhile, but as the
wind increased in velocity the tent
and everything else went with the
storm. The occupants concluded that
the lake shore was the best place for
them, and started for the beach. They
scrambled ahead as best they could,
when huge limb of tree scudded
by their heads, missing them by but
a few inches.
Then they sought refuge behind a
goodly sized linden tree, and were just
congratulating themselves that they
We're out of danger, when crashing
and rending noise over their heads
started a new alarm. The branches
were breaking off and whipping about
in a fury, threatening to beat their
heads OFT every moment. Iney were
not struck, however, and made an
other break for refuge, finding it be-
hind an ironwood tree, which, tho
small, seemed secure. By this time
the hurricane was raging at it's worst
and trees were falling all about, while
the air was filled with flying branches
and other Wreckage.
Suddenly the roots of the ironwood
snapped off and the tree came over
like a catapult, but both the men
managed to squirm away from the
falling trunk.
| Another attempt was made to reach
the beach, as their position was a
highly dangerous one. Stumbling and
crawling ahead, they came to the
trunk of fallen tree, and welcomed
it as a haven of safety. They had no
more than settled themselves SO as
to shield their bodies as much as pos
sible, when the trunk, as if possessed
by malignant spirit, began to roll
over them.
Then another blind rush into the
teeth; of the storm brought Amy and
Pettingill to another fallen tree, in the
lee Of which they crouched and
braced themselves with all their
might for fear it also would catch the
"wanderlust.'' Here, happily, they
were safe until the storm had abated

is 1,205. Delegates numbering 287
are making the trip to San Francisco,
and they are having the time Of their
lives. Their guests on the excursion
are the officers of the grand encamp-
ment of Pennsylvania.
While the knights were at break
fast at the West this morning, a pleas
ant surprise was sprung on Herman
Junker, past eminent commander,
who is managing the pilgrimage. For
two days the delegates have been
talking lnysteriously about a dispute
over Masonic questions between John
Dimling and Alex Gilleland, promi-
nent Pittsburg merchants, and Mr..
Junker was asked this morning to
settle it. The delegates gathered
around him and presented him. large
box. When he had uncovered this
and twenty other boxes it contained,
he found an expensive thirty-third
degree charm and ring, the gift of
his companions on the trip.
Everywhere along the line Masons
have greeted the special train, which
came over the west over the Wabash
and Wisconsin Central roads. These
companies spared no expense or
trouble to make the run pleasant

When asked how the weather bureau
predicted hurricanes on the sea, Mr. Out
ram said that was an entirely different
matter. A hurricane follows a path hun

the same course. A prediction can be
made and cabled ahead when the hurri-
