gro babies he saved from death during
the cyclone of Aug. 20. The mother of the

famine for eastbound lumber cars in
Washington and the Pacific coast terri
tory of the transcontinental lines has

an aggravated degree.

SMALL BOYS STEAL
STARTING CRANKS
Owners of Automobiles Make Novel Com.
plant TO the Police


George Dulaney. the autoist who made
the pilgrimage to st. Louis, called at the
central police station last night with a
novel complaint. He lives at the Huyler
flats on Eleventh street south, Minneapo-
lis, and four other men who have autos
make their home at the same place.
These men permit their machines to
stand in the street while they are at din
ner, and the young boys of the neighbor-
hood have begun practice of stealing the
starting cranks of the machines, so II is
impossible for the owners of the machines
to get their gasoline buggies in operation.
This was particularly annoying to Mr..
Dulaney last night for he was to take a
party of friends TO the Milwaukee station.
and was not able to get his machine under
way in time to catch the train.
In view of the fact that Chief Conroy
announced Saturday night that young
boys and girls found on the street after S
o'clock tonight would be arrested, the
youngsters in the vicinity of Grant street
and Fifth avenue south began their Hal
loween festivities last night. and there
Were many complaints to the police. but
no one was apprehended.

OF II. 600 shares OF st. Louis Transit COM

part OF Brown Bros. who designed to ap-
propriate the assets of the transit COM
pany, which assets greatly exceeded IN

forwarded to C. V. Collins, superintendent
of the state prison department, complete
plans for a new death house and the
central execution plant provided for by
an appropriation of $4,000 last year.
These plans are unique. They have
been made by man who has had the
opportunity to study closely for several
years the conditions and whose sugges-
tions have the weight of experience at
least.
He points out the many inconvenience
and annoyances to which men under sem
tence of death are subjected, and makes
provision for many improvements which
will add to their comfort and secure for
them privacy without danger of infrac-
tions of the rules of the prison.
This grewsome task of designing
death house and execution chamber has
occupied much of Patricks time during
the past six months
Supt. Collins, in speaking of the plans
submitted by Patrick, said last night:
