SHERIFF PUTS FOOT DOWN
WILL RECEIVE NO MORE PRISON
ERs AT COUNTY JAIL IF PROP
Err PAPERS ARE LACKING.

No prisoners, insane or otherwise. will
hereafter be received in the Hennepin
county jail without the proper papers.
This rule was given out by Sheriff j..
w. Dreger this morning, and will be
strictly adhered to by jail officials. The
rule has been "on the books" for some
time past, but owing to peculiar circum-
stances many prisoners, alleged to be in
sane, have bean received at the JAIL when
1t Is held that the police should have
taken them to the city hospital for treat
ment.
The stand taken by the sheriff Is caused
by the case Of Henry Lohf, a cooper at
815 Third street N, who died at the city
hospital last night from alcoholism. Lohf
was picked up by the police Monday night
suffering from an acute attack Of delir-
iun tremens. He was taken to the county
Jail and locked up in the insane ward.
While there he fell and sustained injur-
les not conducive to recovery. Yesterday
he was found to be in dangerous con-
dition and ordered taken to the hospital
Considerable talk has been occasioned
by his death, and some difference Of opin-
lon has arisen as to the cause and the
blame for it. ...s.
I'VE are going to have a talk with
Chief Of Police Conroy," said Chief
Deputy Sheriff Arthur L. Jones this
morning" There is no friction between
the two departments, but from this time
on VIC want it understood that We will
receive no one unless the proper papers
are brought with him. The police have
fallen into the habit Of picking up mer
with the delirium tremens and. instead
Of taking them 20 the hospital where they
should go for treatme bringing them
to the jail. This will have to stop, al
we can't assume the responsibility o.
caring for them.'' ,'..

OLD SAW MILL TO GO
MACHINERY ALREADY REMOVED
FROM McNIULLEN MILL-BUILD-
INGS LIKELY TO BE TAKEN
DOWN SOON.

The last sawmill on the old water
power mill site Is about to disappear.
The machinery of the old McMullen mill
on the little island on which stands also
the citys East Side pumping station has
been sold and transported to the Colum-
bia river in Canada, to be used in saving
up Pacific coast pine. 1t Is likely that
the frame of the mill will be disposed
of also.
The McMullen. mill was built about
1874. 1t was owned by Albert and William
McMullen and was run last season. 1t cut
the logs doomed down the east channel
of the Mississippi and fioated in the pond
above the upper dam. 1t had an auxiliary
steam plant.
Ten years ago another old sawmill or
the island was dismantled after lying idle
for long time. This was the Farnham
& Lovejoy mill. The only plant remain
ing on the island besides the pumping sta.
ton which houses the Jumbo pump Is tina,
of the Minneapolis General Electric com.
pany.
Fifteen years ago sawmills lined the
river at the falls. The last Of those or
the West Side were the J. B. Bassett &
Co. the w. D. Washburn and the Pioneer
mills, which long ago ceased saving ant
have disappeared entirely. This leaves
only two sawmills on the lower river thu
Nelson mill on the East Side opposite thu
upper end of Nicollet island, and the

Bitter Rot Of Apples.

There is disease of apples that an
nually renders unstable large quanti:-
ties Of this fruit. The germs of this
disease pass the winter on decayed
fruit or on the limbs of the tree. When
weather conditions are right the
spread of the bitter rot (or ripe rot,
as it is called in some places) is very
rapid. Fortunately it's attacks are not
common, else apple growing would be
a feat far more difficult than at pres
ent. The disease usually manifests it.
self during July and August, though in
some years it has been noticed as
early as June. 1t is 50 distinct in it's
characteristics that it is easily recog-
nized when once it has been met with
and noticed. Each decaying spot
spreads uniformly from single center
of infection and small black pustules
appear on the surface of the decayed
spots. Under the decayed surface the
fruit is of spongy character, brown
ish in color, very bitter to the taste,
and forms cone-shaped area with
the apex towards the core of the apple.
F. w. Faurot says that if the pustules
on the, decayed surface be examined
clossly it will be seen that pink col
ored stringy masses are exuding from
them. This exudation is composed of
countless numbers of minute spores
cemented together, and which are dis
tributed by various agents throughout
the tree, and from tree to tree. Spray
ing with Bordeaux mixture is one of
the means of keeping the disease in
check and of saving the apple crop.
Perfect sanitary conditions i'll the or
chard will do much to prevent the
spread of this pest.
