A HIGH SCHOOL
A is
Attorney General UphoIds Its Action in
Case of .Waverfy School

The attorney generals Office, by re-
quest of the interested parties, yester-
day gave an opinion in the Waverly
school case. TIL opinion upholds the
action of the state high school board in
refusing to grant state aid to the Waverly
high school, but suggests a way out Of
the difficulty.
The refusal to grant state aid was on
the grounds that the school board Of
Waverly was devoting a portion of it's
money for repairs on a building not owned
by the district, the building having for
merry Deem d paroehial school.
A second cause. of the withholding of
state aid was because IT was alleged that
sisters of the Order OF st. Joseph were
employed as teachers in the school. No
complaint was made as to- their. fitness or
character, but nbjectien was. made that
they. appeared iH the garb of their order
The attorney generals Office holds that
the state high school board has acted
within its discretion in refusing state aid
because of school money being spent on
private property, but suggests that this
may be obViated by the board renting
the building, Hs$owners to make repairs
AS to the second cause, the opinion
says it has long been held by the office
that it is notsaper1nissible for teachers
in the public schools to appear clad in
the garb of any sectarian order. A copy
of the opinion ; has been forwarded to
John Casey. secretary of the Waverly
school board.

JUDSON EXPLAINS
Says Contagious Ward at City
Hospital Caused Deficit

E. H. Judson, membe of the city
and county board of control, says that
a change in the laws and the addi-
tioral expense incidental to h main
tenance of the contagious ward at the
city hospital resulted in the creation of
h large deficit in the funds of the
board. Mr.. Judson said yesterday:
Heretofore the board has possessed
h right to use the income from the
city hospital and the poor farm, but
a law passed by the last legislature
makes it necessary that all receipts be
turned into the treasury. 1t is esti-
mated hat the receipts of the hospi-
tai during 1905 will mount to $24, 900,
and from the poor farm $4,000. If
this income were to be credited to the
board, and it should also receive the
amount taken in during the present
year it would be possible for us to get
along with practically the amount we
hav been receiving heretofore. Our
only added expense has been for the
maintenance of the contagious ward at
the city hospital. This has proven
costly.
"The apparent great increase in the
cost of the maintenance of the city
hospital and the poor farm is therefore
not really an increase. The difference
is that the board now pays into the
treasury all receipts, instead of using
them, and it is necessary to proper
tionately increase the tax levy for our
urpos although the receipt of the
money should permit the lowering of
the amount to be raised for some other
purpose. 1t is the wish of the board
to correct the impression that the
board is extravaganza"

WILL POST TEACHERS
ON THE EYE AND A
State Board of Health Arranees for
Lectures by Specialists

S~choolma'ams of the state will be
told by eye and ear specialists how to
examine their wards in determining
he correctness of their vision and the
acuteneSS of their auricular nerves.
The state board of health announced
yesterday a course of lectures to be
given by eye and@ear~SpecialiStS OF the
win Cities before different summer
training schools. The lectures will be
to prepare the teachers for the usual
examinations of the children to de-
termine their vision and hearing. Drs.
F. c. Todd, c. E. Lum, w. R. Murray,
j. H. James, j. W. Chamberlin, Thomas
McDaYitt, H. Mel. Morton and A. D.
Lewis will be the lecturers, and among
the schools to be visited are those at
Minneapolis, Big Stone City, Duluth,
Moorhead, Mankato, st. Cloud, Cannon
Falls. Winona, Rochester, Albert Lea
and Marshall.
A proposition from the Maj. Walter
Ried Memorial association was deferred
to he next meeting of the board. DR..
Ried, who did a great work in the yell
low fever epidemic at Havana during
the Standardization war, has since
died and a movement looking to a $25,-
900 memorial to him vas begun at the
recent meeting Of the national medical
society. Minnesota doctors will con-
tribute to the fund through the medium
of the state board Of health.
Plans were submitted to the board
for septic tanks, designed for country
residences and residences in small
towns not having complete sys-
TENS, and one was shown that did its
work effectively at q Michigan resi-
dence and which cost only $3.50. The
superiority of the septic tank over the
old-fashioned cesSpool was shown

DUNN AND COLLINS MEN
LINING UP FOR FIGHT
Factions Will Clash in Attempt to Con-
troll Local Committees

republican precinct committeeman are
meeting throughout the city and county
TO perfect their organizations for the en-
suing two years. The list has been COM
piled by Secretary Theodore J.. Grone-
valid from the list Of member returned
to the Collins county convention. and
there promises to be a pretty ight be-
tween the partisans of Collins and the
Dunn men in Ramsey county for the con-
troll of the city n county organization
for the next two years.
The city and county committee will be
composed of two members selected by
each ward and two from the country,
and the votes of these men will deter
mine the personnel of the chairman. vice
charm an. secretary and treasurer of the
central organization.
All the precinct committeeman have
been notified by Secretary Gronewald to
meet within the next week and perfect
their organizations, and it is expected
that the formal meeting for the election
of officers of the city and county COM
mittee will be held very soon after the
precincts are fully organized.
The value of the organization was
thoroughly demonstrated in the recent
county convention and the ante-conven-
ton caucuSes, and both factions will
maxi a determined effort, the one to re-
tain control of and the other to capture
the machinery of the elections. Fenton
c. Warner is the present chairman of the
insists that 1t will remain in the saddle,
while the so-called Dunn men say that
they have a majority of the wards and
will elect the chairman and other officers
OF the city and county committee. II
promises to be a nice fight.

ARRESTS ARE DUE TO
FOLLOW OHAGE'S ORDER
Warrants to Be Issued for Those Who
Have Not Removed Vaults

The crusade of Health Commissions
er Ohage against all vaults in the ter
ritory bounded by Wabasha and NELL
streets and Sixth and Tenth streets
has progressed to the extent that war
rants may be expected in a few days.
A majority of those notified. to re-
move the vaults have signified their
willingness to conform to the require
ments of the health department, but in
about one-third of the cases the no.
tees have received no attention from
h owners of the property. Out of
the slightly more than a hundred no
tees sent, it is expected that it will
be necessary to enforce the demands
in about thirty cases by an action in
court.
Inspectors Getche1I and Eisenmenger
have been in charge of the inVestiga-
ton, GetcheH having charge of all the
territory east of Jackson, and Eisen-
menger in charge of that west. They
have notified all wner Of property
that the vaults must be removed and
sewers put in, and the next move viii
be to secure warrants.
DR.. Ohage insists that he is in
earnest in his matter, and that he will
carry TO a successful issue the de
mand that the vaults be abandoned.

OHIO STREET SEWER
SYSTEM TO COST S48, $50
City Engineer Submits His Estimate
to Board of Public Works

City Engineer Rundlett yesterday
submitted to the board Of public works
an estimate of the cost of the Ohio
street sewer system, the amount being
S4S,566, of which $4,000 will be paid
by the city. The cost to the property
owners will be about Slip per front
foot.
This is the sewer system the con-
struction of which is being urged by
the Grand View Heights Improvement
association, the engineer recommend
ing that "a sewer on Stevens street,
from Ohio to ottawa, be stricken from
the order, and h a it be constructed
on Stevens from Ohio to Manonlin,
and on Manomin to. Ottawa.
The board passed a large number of
sidewalk orders that were delayed
while the question of the right Of the
city to assess for such Improvements
was being tested in the courts. A
large number of orders for the Eleventh
ward were approved, with the consent
of Aid. Lynch.

AGAINST THEM
Rustic Youths Trying to Escape
Time Run Into More Time

Charles and James Hickman, a cou-
pie of unsophisticated young men,
made a desperate effort yesterday to
escape spending fifteen days in the
Workhouse, with the result that they
will stay there for los days.
Officers Gibbons and ST. Clair left
the court room with nine prisoners.
IN reaching the court house reaway
where the black maria stands, while
waiting for the arrival of the prison
ers, the Hickmans made a dash for
liberty. James went on Cedar street
and Charles chose Wabasha. The
former was captured at Sixth and Ce-
dar by Deputy Sheriff Gackstetter, and
the latter, at Third and Wabasha, ran
plump INTO the arms of Lieut.. Mey-
erding and Patrolman Paulson.
They were taken before Judge Fine
bout, and on pleading guilty to having
made an attempt to escape they were
given ninety more days each and
taken to he workhouse at once.
The young men, who had the ap-
pearance of being farmer boys, were
originally arrested in a Burlington box
a in the yards beneath Dayton's
bluff. n for this were given fifteen
days each, in default of fines. After
their conviction they consulted and
made up their minds that they would
not serve the time. Their first chance
to escape came when they were being
taken to the black maria.
Office Gibbons displayed presence
of mind in seeing that the other seven
prisoners were safely locked in the
wagon. He did not become excited
and Joined in the chase.

THEY WANT A LAW
Shippers Urge Legislation for
Reciprocal Demurrage

AT a meeting of the executive COM
mIttee of the st. Paul Board of Trade.
held at the Commercial club last night,
the question of reciprocal demurrage
IN car service was discussed at some
length n plans were outlined for
creating Il sentiment with a view of
having the next legislature pass a law
more favorable to the shipper.
There are now such laws in a num-
Der of state" said w. II. Patton, sec
rotary of the board, "and they are of
much benefit to the shippers. We
want such a law in Minnesota, one
that provides for reciprocal demurrage
and giving the railroad and warehouse
commission jurisdiction in its enforce
ment.
Under the present system, the roads
have and exercise the right to. charge
demurrage rates, where shippers fail
to DAD or unload a car within the time
specified, but there is no relief for the
patron of the Dad in cases Wher the
shipment IS delayed in transit, or
where the delay is the fault of the
road. This. we believe. is unjust to the
shipper, who often suffers a great loss
by having a shipment delayed.
w want a law that will specify
how much time a road should have in
which to complete a shipment. In
Virginia, where the law has been car
IItN 10 me supreme court ana declared
constitutional, the road has one day in
which to switch a car out, the
same length of time in which to switch
it in at the point of destination, and
ii is ais required hat fifty miles per
day be covered by the shipment.
What We van is a law that will
require the roads to pay a demurrage
to the shipper where cars are delayed
longer than necessary, and we will en-
deavor to have such a law passed by
the neXt legislature"
The question of reciprocal demur-
rage has been before the Board of
Trade for some time, and conferences
have already been held with officials
of some of the roads operating in Min
neaota, In behalf of the roads it is
maintained that demurrage charges
are not made for the revenue there is
in them, but merely for the purpose of
stimulating shippers to load and I'M
load the cars as promptly as possible.
The board viii take the matter up
with other commercial bodies and be-
tween now and the time the next leg
islature meets will endeavor to create
a sentiment favorable to such a law.

WHAT WAS He AFTER
Court Sees No Offense and Dis.
charges Peter Black

Peter Black, living at 2O55 st. An
thony avenue. said when he came be-
fore Judge Finehout for trial y%ester-
day that he did not know what he was
charged with, and when the court had
listened to the evidence introduced by
the prosecution it was Of a like opin-
IN.
Mrs. Jerome Martineau and Miss
Florence Dunbar were the witnesses
for the prosecution. They live in the
same house with Black, and testified
tha the latter came from the house
with a club in his hand n walked
about in a suspicious manner.
City Prosecutor Helmes moved that
the case be dismissed, and the court
said:
Respectable citizens should not be
dragged before a criminal court OF
such a frivolous charge, and it would
seem that the city prosecutor must
have been imposed upon or he would
not have issued the warrant on such
evidence

clally from the worlds fair officers.
we left Chicago at 1920 Monday
night In a private car furnished the
cardinal by the Milwaukee railroad.
During the journey the cardinal spoke
often of the satisfaction he felt at be-
ing able to visit Archbishop Ireland
and other old friends in this country.
In fact the cardinal would like to
make it known that. aside from his
visit to ST Louis, where he was sent
by the Vatican on a mission of our
tesy, his travels through the United
States have only a personal object. He
wishes incidentally to recuperate, and
especially to visit once more the
friends he made when he was here as
apostolic delegate. l was specially
gratified to meet him, because I had
the honor of receiving conservation
from his hands at Washington IN
April, 1896, a few months after he had
been made a cardinal. Later, in 1896,
he returned to Rome
