LINES TO TONKA
SHOWN BY MAPS
INDICATED AT BOTH
EXCELSIOR AND WAYZATA.
T.. c. r. T. Officials Say That Exact
Route Is Not Determined-The
Beach Pavilion Will Be at Tonka
Bay Instead Of on Excelsior Conn
mons.

A Y-shaped electric system, diverg-
ing. to touch both sides ofyLalle Mime.
tonka is indicated by the, Twin City
Rapid Transit company in the map ac-
oompanying it's annual printed report.
Officials Of the. company say that
they have not determined exactly on
routes, nor upon termini. Mr.. Lowry
said this morning that the fact that
the Beach pavilion would be put up at
Tonka Bay and that he owned Ironka
on the location of the lines of the
street railway company. He said also
that the company would be more like
ly to build to Wayzata than to the
south, shore. Inquiry as to the proba-
bility Of building to the Hotel st. Louis
brought out the statement that the
company had not decided what it
would do, but that the purchase of a
wight Of way to the south shore by the
Minnesota Power & Trolley company
would not interfere with the COM
pany's plans.
The map shows an extension of tbs
Harriet line from it's terminus at Lin
den Hills over the old Minnetonka &
Lyndale road bed and is almost an
air line to Cottagewood, passing thru
West Minneapolis, but passing by ST.
Louis Park. The use of the Walker
line to West Minneapolis is not to be
surmised from an examination Of the
map.
The Cottagewood line shows an ex-
tension clear around st. Adams Bay
to Excelsior, instead Of across the bay
and thru Solberg's point as the wagon
and railroads run.
At a point about two-thirds Of the
way from West Minneapolis to Cot
tagewood, the Wayzata line leaves the
air line to Cottagewood and crosses the
narrow neck Of land between Gray s
Lake and Wayzata Bay.
Further than this, the map reveals
nothing as to the terminus Of either
line. Officials say that the line will
go where the people are.
| The change from Excelsior to TonlSa
, Bay of the Beach pavilion, concerning
which there has been considerable
strife in Excelsior, will leave the field
open to the Haywood pavilion which
| was built last year and will provide
for Tonka Bay something in the way
of public sports and entertainment
which that part of the lake has never
| had. b.

were issued. The company paid four
dividends of IL per cent on the com
mon stock and four dividends Of IA
per cent on the preferred stock, leav-
ing a net surplus of SAL ,296.97, which

MINI. FARMERS ORGANIZE.
ORGANIZATION WILL NOT BE A
BRANCH OF AMERICAN EX-
CHANGE BUT WILL AFFILIATE
WITH 1T.

The permanent establishment OF
the Minnesota Farmers exchange will
be effected along the line of inder'end-
ent organization. At the first session
of the convention called to order in
st. Paul yesterday that much was; de-
cided upon, and it was shown thai the
farmers present or represented Were
heartily in favor of an organization
for mutual benefit and Of the nation
alizing Of farmers organizations. To
this latter end it was decided some
months ago to send delegates to- the
national convention to be held In
Omaha, March l, and to give the Min
nesota exchange a tentative organlza-
ton with the following officers: :
G.. E. Jackson. president; j. 2.
Carey, Glencoe, vice president: ]. S.
Mcdonald, secretary and W. S. Wedh-
erston, West Concord, treasurer. =:
The sentiment appears to be OPP
posed, however to the organlza ION s
becoming a br anch of the America
Farmers exchange altho it, will prob
ably look favorably upon afflllai-ion
with that body.
Addresses were delivered yesterday
by H. N. Gaines of Topeka, Kan, who
urged those present to avoid the Dam

W. w. P. Mcconnell, state dairy and

ILL, COLD AND STARVING
CARL PETERSON is DISCOVERED
IN A PITIABLE PLIGHT
SPEEDY RELIEF is AFFORDED.

Carl Peterson, So years old, was
found i'll in bed this morning in his
room at 700 Fourth street s.. There
were no provisions in the house. The
room was well supplied with wood,
but the old man was SO weak from
fever and fasting that he was unable
to build a fire, or even to summon
assistance.
Some of the roomers noticed that
Mr.. Peterson was not about the yard
as usual, and, learning his plight, re-
ported the matter to the poor de-
partment. Groceries We're. sent inn
mediately, and after a good meal the
old: man felt better.
Last summer Peterson was i'll, and
since then has not been able to work
His family is still in Sweden, and
while he was able to work, he sent
all his earnings to them, except
enough to buy himself the necessities
Of life. He has always been reluc-
tant to ask aid and might have died
had not his neighbors discovered his
plight.

She Victimizes Monroe Street
Woman and Her Daughter by
Working Charms with Flour, But
tons, Gold, Corsets, Caraway Seed
and Hairpins.

With these receipts a gypsy fortune
teller secured SIS from Mrs. Frances
Jones, $500 Monroe street NE, and her
daughter.
The fortune teller looked like the
real thing, with swarthy skin, dark
hair and earrings. She was to show
the daughter how to end a lovers
quarrel, and Of course the gold piece
naturally disappeared
In working the other charms the
seeress was to wear a certain SO cor
set and work with $40 worth of cara
way seed at her own home. 1t is
problematical whether she ever
bought the corset and seed, but at
any rate she gave Mrs. Jones a num-
Der which she assured her was that
of a winning ticket in the ''Texas
lottery"
Mrs. Jones became suspicious and
to-day, consulted the city attorney,
who had to tell her that nothing could
be done on the evidence now, avail
able. Nevertheless, the police will
watch her.

He Hands Back Hot One to AIderna amid

There is no love lost between the aid
ermen and Controller Joshua Rogers SINCE
the latter tried to hold back the increase
in their pay authorized by the late legis--
lature. There was a brisk passage over
the matter at a late meeting Of the COM
mittee on claims. One of the members,
with the moral support of the Others up
braided Mr.. Rogers for interfering in a.
matter which they insisted did not con-
Germ him in any way. F.
''Why do you try to butt in here ana
set yourself up as both judge and jury
and prosecuting attorney and the whole
works to decide legal questions which can
be decided only by the supreme court?"
asked the alderman.
For the same reason that you aldermen
who are neither judge nor jury, assume to
construe the law requiring you to turn
over the city hall to the municipal build
ing commission responded Mr.. Rogers
promptly. "You refuse to turn over the
building, because you say the law is UNI
constitutional
Mr.. Rogers glared around at the AID
ermen there assembled and waited belig-
erently for the next onslaught. But there
was none. and the fight was tacitly
awarded to Colonel Rogers.

Duty Of the Treasurer.

J. f. Hardin, treasurer of the Iowa
association, did not arrive yesterday
and his address on : The Duty Of the
Treasurer" was given this morning.
It was very stimulating, and touched
on nearly every phase of the asso-
citation without departing from it's
special field Next to- Indifference he
found the problem Of raising, funds
the hardest in Christian work. He
told the audience that, while he was
not inclined to dispute the promise
of free salvation, it took money to
run the machinery and that the SOON
err the need Of a bus1ness-like finan-
cial basis for the work was recog-
nized the better it would be. He ex-
pressed his firm belief that organized
Sunday school work is the greatest
means in existence of bringing about
EChrists.. kingdom. He pointed out
the need of going after the money.
and Of doing it in a systematic way.
i He saw in the development of the
tithing system and in the tendency
Of rich men to give largely to public
beneffrences, encouraging signs OF
