Some boys were playing ball yester

Broadway. regardless Of the fact that

Mr.. ATbee's Opinion.

Alpine, Cal, June 6.-Mr. T. M. Al
bee. our postmaster, has expressed an
opinion based on his own experience
which will no doubt be of interest to
many. Mr.. Albee IL . man Of few
words, but his well-known truthfulness
and uprightness Of character adds
much weight to any statement he
makes. He says:
sThe FIRST box Of Dodds Kidney Pills

four boxes with the very best results.

TAPPED.

For the second time within three
months, the saloon of Martin P.
Handlay, 429 Third avenue NE, was
held up by masked men early this
morning and robbed. The highway
men escaped with $35 in cash and a
gold watch belonging to one Of the
customers. From their description,
the police are certain that they are
the same men who robbed the saloon
of Pearson & Johnson. 1928 Uni
versity avenue NE, Tuesday night.
The holdup occurred shortly after
IL o'clock There were three Gus
toners in the saloon and the bar
tender had just stepped out Of the
place. Suddenly the door opened and
three masked men entered. They
compelled the men in the saloon to
line up along the bar while the ban
dts rif1ed their pockets. The search
revealed about 81 and a gold watch
while the till yielded $31.
Shortly after the bandits left the
robbery was reported to the police,
but no trace of the men could be
found.

FOR RECREATION PARK
PIar of Assessment Suggested by
Ridgway Favored.

PIaE OF ASSESSMENT SNSSSoeSN -
Ridgway Favored.
II has ben tacitly decided by the
board of assessors for the new park at
the foot of Lowry Hill to adopt the plan
suggested by Secretary J. A.. RidgWay OF
the park board.
This is to spread out the assessments
thinly over a large area, and make as
much of the property as possible bear the
expense AS it costs about 121s cents
description to enter the park assessments
for the ten-year period, during which tney
run, it will not do to make the assess
ments too small, and it is likely they VIII
not go much below SO, or 81 year. me
highest annual assessment will not ex-
ceed $3.50 a year, and these will be con-
fined to property Immediately surround-
ing the park tract.
The total assessment for the new park
is S1O7,79O, which includes the cost OF the
land not donated, the expense OF the ap-
praisement, the interest on deferred pay
ments on the certificates and other ex-
penses. It will be assessed over an area
extending as far south as the Hastings
&. Dakota railway tracks, as far east as
Nicollet avenue and considerable d1s-
tance down town. Bryn Mawr, which has
been hit for several parks, Will probably
be excused from the assessment

Association Coming.

Mrs. Elizabeth MCGOWAN, reelected
president of the Ladies' Catholic Benevo-
lent association at it's convention In St.

the organization Of the association and
its objects, there will be an attempt to
form a chapter here.
The supreme officers of the association
held an open meeting for st. Paul women
yesterday at the Ryan hotel. Mrs. NC
Gowan is endeavoring to form 8 chapter
there. Tho the association is strong In
the east, opportunities have not been fully
developed in the west. In the arch
diocese including the state of Minnesota
there is not a single representative or
branch Of the organization. altho st. Paul
is a cathedral city. and the archdiocese is
one Of the most influential in the country.
At the final meeting Of the association
yesterday DR.. Jane Carroll Of Buffalo, n.
Y, was chosen supreme medical examiner

Carlo FIScherS ArtStlc work.
Mr.. and Mrs. Carlo Fischer have been
meeting with great success at Coronado
Beach, San Diego and have been winning
high praise for their work. Speaking of
Mrs Fischer's reading of Nanny Liz
Boy the San Diego Union in recent
number says 1T could not have been bet
ter given by even the original nanny.
The dialect, the touch of pathos and the
wit were all there, nothing was lacking
in the picture presented" Speaking OF
Mr.. Fischer, the same paper says his
genius Is instantly recognized. The soul
is indeed a part of his being. To play as
he does one must have a soul tuned to
harmony. His hearers marveed and then
they forgot to wonder. The musician who
can make his audience forget themselves,
forget the past, with it's fulfilled promises,
it's worries and it's happiness, too; he who
can for even so short space of time
shut out the thoughts of the day, and
even the present. and taking his audience
to himself, is indeed master. Such a
musician Is Carlo Fischer" Mr.. and Mrs.
Fischer will return to Minneapolis in Sep
tember.
