BOY BROWNS WHILE
SWIMMING DITCH
Joseph WermIund Refuses to
Take Dare and Sinks Be-
fore Reaching Bank

Joseph Wermlund, Sixteen-year-
old boy living with his parents at 645
Lawson street, was drowned while
swimming in Round lake shortly after
o'clock last night.
The Wermlund boy, in company with
a number of other boys, all much
smaller than himself, were swimming
together and had wandered to one end
of the lake where a ditch had been dug
from a swamp to the lake. The boys
We're daring each other to swim the
ditch. One little fellow made the at
tempt and crossed with some diffl
Guilty.
II dare you to try it, Joe,'' said one
of the boys to the Wermlund boy.
The boy hesitated but urged on by
his smaller companions, he jumped in
and started across. When almost to
the farther side he called for help, but
none of the boys in the party were
able to help him, and after making a
vain effort to reach the bank the boy
sank below the surface of the water.
His young companions waited mo-
ment to see if his body came to the
surface, and when it did not they cried
for help. Their cries were heard by
Nels Dahl and Martin Joyce, two men
who We're in the vicinity, and they
came to the rescue. When informed
by the small boys on the bank Of what
had happened the men jumped into the
water and soon found the body of the
Wermlund boy.
The new banks on each side Of the
ditch were of clay and difficult to as
cend, and it was only after several
minutes of the hardest kind of work
that the body was taken from the wa
ter.
The Margaret street police station
was notified, as was Coroner Miller,
and the body was removed to the
morgue. Coroner Miller stated last
night that an inquest would not be
necessary. The boys father. Nels
Wermlund, carpenter employed at
Como park, was in Saltwater last
night, but was notified Of the accident
by telephone.
Round lake, where the drowning oc-
Cured, is really a. part of Lake Pha-
len. The boy was drowned in the ditch
at point just above where it opens
into the lake. Joseph Wermlund was
employed at Field, Schlick & Co.'s
store. He is survived by five brothers.

UNION OPERATORS
TO HOLD CONVENTION
Commercial Telegraphers of
America Gather in St. Paul
for Annual Meeting

The Commercial Telegraphers'
Union of America will hold it's second
annual convention in ST. Paul next
week and will devote consideration to
the attitude of the Western Union
Telegraph company against members
of the telegra piers union in the mat
ter of employment. Just what action
is proposed to be taken is not divulged
by its members, but it is admitted that
the troubles with the big telegraph
corporation will be the chief subject
of interest to come before the interna-
tional convention.
AT the Metropolitan hotel the mem
bers of the international executive
board of the union began a session
last night in anticipation of the sec
ond annual international convention,
which is scheduled to meet in st. Paul
July 10, and which will probably be in
session three or four days.
Meet in Senate Chamber
The Commercial Telegraphers' union
which is said to include 1000 tele-
graph operators employed in telegraph
work exclusive of the railroad service
of the country, will be represented at
the st. Paul convention by about 120
delegates, coming from all parts of the
United States and Canada. The ses-
sions of the convention will be held in
the state senate chamber and will be
secret. Convention headquarters will
be maintained at the Metropolitan
hotel.
The executive board is composed of
p. T. Thomas, New York, chairman;
M. j. Reidy, Boston; A. E. Bates, Chi
cago; C. K. Cralle, Chicago; D. ].
Russell New York; A. L. Boyer, ST.
Louis; A. A. Davis, Memphis, Tenn;
E. A. Heasley, Washington, and j. M.
Brown, New Orleans. The officers are:
Will C. Long, Dallas, Tex, president;
E. H. Lindquist, Chicago, first vice
PRESIDENT; ]. j. Dunn Montreal, Sec
ond vice president; A. T. Baum, San
Francisco, third vice president; Wes-
ley Russell, Washington, secretary
and treasurer.
This is the second international con-
yention since the organization of the
commercial telegraphers in New York
city, and the st. Paul local union has
appointed a committee of twenty of
it's members to plan for the entertain
ment of the delegates while in the city.
C. r. Hubbard, of the Associated
Press. is chairman of this committee,
and a programme of entertainment has
been prepared. This will include a
steamboat excursion on the Missis-
sippi Tuesday evening; entertainment
at Minneapolis by the Minneapolis To-
cal union Wednesday, night, and prob
ably a banquet to be served in St Paul
Thursday evening.

The shirt-waist boys had their first

themselves with. their fine linen.
1t was blistering, baking hot in ST.
Paul and everybody who could do so
hied themselves to the coolest spot they
could find. In fact everybody did that.
At o'clock the streets were about
as crowded as those of Lima, Peru,
at the same time of day. The glare
from the buildings and the broil from
the asphalt paving combined to give
the pedestrian an impromptu foretaste
of the hot room of a Turkish bath.

The boys with the waists met with
no opposition in the local eating houses.
Even the thick young men who serve
the patrons of the humber class of
restaurants did not have the heart to
jibe, them, but instead looked rather
enviously at the youths who had the
nerve to patronize their places minus
coats and collars.

effect of the hot wave on the crops.
Few Prostrations
In spite of the fact that yesterday
was the hottest day since the record

HOW THE PIGEON GOT
HOME ON SCHEDULE
Solution of the Sunday Globe Puzzle
of Two Weeks Ago.

Following is the solution of he
Pigeon puzzle in T he Clio b e for July
10.
The answer is that it took the pigeon
1a hours TO reach its home
The explanation is as follows:
The flying rate of the bird is in one
hour twice what it is in a half-horr.
or the same as its speed is in two half
hours. 1t is given as flying as far in
an n hour as 1t does in half an hour and
10 miles more, therefore in two half
hours it flies what it does in one half
hour and 10 miles, SO 80 miles would
take it three half hours, which is ~
hours. : =
