FLOUR BLEACHING
A Possibility Of New Ozone Generator
Manufactured Here.

.
The bleaching of flour, is one of the
possibilities Of machine to be man
ufactured at 245 Second avenue s by
the newly formed Ozone Generator
company. In connection with the J..
N. Alsop process Of bleaching -four
with air treated by flaming electrici-
ty," comes announcement Of the Min
neapolis device which seems calcu-
lated to do the same work, tho prin-
cipal experiments so far have been
along the line of the medical appH-
cation Of ozone. Not the least impor-
tant is the publication Of water by
ozone treatment. The application will
be the same used in German cities,
but at only one-fourteenth the cost.
The company has offered the Min
neapolis water committee facilities
for tests and will make the same Of
fer to the expert commission If it
desires to investigate. 1t has offered
the city free use Of it's patents and
rights for water treatment at the res
ervoir. The estimate Of cost Of the
supply Of ozone generators, with ap-
paratus for treatment Of 30,0O0,00O
gallons of water a.day, the highest
Minneapolis consumption, is $4,000
The cost Of operation would not be
more than rs cents a million gallons
destroying all the bacteria.

FIVE CREWS TO LAY MAINS
Waterworks Department Will Soon
Have 400 Men at Work.

BY next Wednesday Supervisor j.
H. Mcconnell Of the waterworks de-
partment will have five crews at work
laying pipe, which will give employ
ment to about 400 men. One crew
has already been started on Dupont
avenue, on Lowry hill.
Two crews will be started on Mon
day, one at Ninth avenue and Thirty
fourth street; a fourth on Tuesday on
the big 24-inch main on Penn avenue,
which is to supply the Lowry Hill dis
trict; and the fifth on Wednesday. on
the big 30-inch main on Central ave-
nue. from Thirty-seventh avenue to
Twenty fifth.
This last is the biggest Waterman
work Of the season and the most i'm
portant, as it will give the whole East
Side plenty of water direct from the
reservoir, and the submerged mains
across the river will be useful only for
maintaining a circulation BY the
completion Of this main the two lower
pumping stations will be without ex-
been closed.

HIS VOICE SAVED HIM
Story of Arthur Schell, Who VIII Sing
at Peoples Church.

CIV ASopAS NAAuASAs
Arthur Schell of Robes Knicker-
bockers at the Dewey, who will sing
Shelley's Resurrection" tomorrow
morning at the Peoples church as a
barytone solo, has a rather remark
able voice history. For fifteen years
his horizon was the walls of his
fathers creamery and ice cream shop
in Philadelphia. While he worked
he sang, and in the evenings he wan
dered around looking at star names
on the bill boards. He obtained per-
mission to go to New York to try to
better his finances. His money wasted
away while he was in search of work.
His remaining asset was a voice which
he had often been urged to cultivate.
Up into the brown-stone district he
went to sing in front of the houses
stopped in front of the Actors club.
w. G.. Stewart, head Of the American
! School Of Opera, sent for him. His
deep barytone tones attracted the
other clubmen gradually, and all his
songs were greeted with great ap-
plause. A passed hat collected SIS.
Stewart tried his voice again at his
man Pellet. Finally the young mans
great promise caused Stewart to give
him free scholarship. Thus his
musical education began.
Other features Of the Peoples
church service at Masonic Temple, to-
morrow will be an address by Rev
G. L. Morrill, on "Three Things Min
neapolis Needs; the intermezzo, "Yo-
kohama," by Ralph E. Kenney, played

FINE BOULEVARD
BETWEEN CITIES
PLAN TO PLANT TREES ALL
ALONG UNIVERSITY AVENUE.
Commercial Clubs of Minneapolis and
St. Paul Will Confer on Project
q. M. Loring Suggests Planting Four
Rows Of Trees the Entire Length Of
Avenue

..This is the time of the year for tree
planting" said G. M. Loring, the father
of the Minneapolis park system, to-day.
..F,rom now until the time the buds begin
to break is the best time to look after
planting To my mind the park board
should control tree-planting on the streets
of the city, and not allow trees Of other
variety than those already in the ground
to be planted. Trees should be planted
at least fifty feet apart.
1.-THE elm has been planted more than
any other tree in Minneapolis, and 1t is q
good tree. Naples and lindens hold place
on some streets, and / see that some have
planted box elders. The latter is a thorolJ
detestable tree, the first to shed it's leaves
and harbor for insects, especially borers
If had my way they would not be planted
anywhere also see that trees are be.
ing ruined by hitching horses to them
1t seems strange that the owner OF
property which the growth Of the trees
will beautify will neglect to provide
shields. Many men plant trees costing 5;
and Sc each and then let them be ruined
by neglecting to spend 35 or 40 cents fol
Shields.
1.-THE civic committee of the Commercial
club of Minneapolis has recommended tina
| a committee be appointed to confer witt
the Commercial club of ST. Paul for the
! improvement Of University avenue be-
tween the two cities. In our opinion the
thorofare could be made a beautiful one
| by planting four rows of elms it's entirt
| length; two rows on the curb sides of thu
street, and row on each side of tn.
| trolley line, making two avenues In tim,
| it would becomesa drive the fame of which
would spread far beyond the confines O
| the state.
while talking of identifying Mime
apolis by tree planting, do not think i
| out of place to say word about genera
conditions here this spring. The town il
disgracefully dirty and the blame can b.
traced to those who have dumped ashe
in yards and on vacant lots. I drive abou
| the city a great deal, and I have neye
! seen Minneapolis look quite so ragged a.
it does this year. The winter was severe
but there should be a general cleaning UP
The new park furnishes citizens an oppor
tunity to get rid Of ashes and refuse, an
| civic pride should prompt all citizens t
| undertake thoro cleaning up of thei
property and that under their control, !
seems strange that this city does not, a
other cities do, Systematically collec
ashes and rubbish every week at least
and hope that such collection will b
started soon.
1.-The work OF beautifying city is nc
Z the work Of the city administration no
the park board alone. 1t is the privileg
of every citizen to assist. If the citizen
will plant trees and shrubs and clean u
their premises I'VE will soon have a cit
famed the world over for its beauty ar,
manifold attractions"

LOUISE BOUCHER's DEATH
Much Loved Student of Blaine Schoo
Is Taken.

MUCH lOVeu STUDENT Oh bldluc SCHOOL
Is Taken.
Marie Louise Adele Boucher, aged
II years, 8 months and 10 days,
daughter of Mrs. Celina Boucher,
breathed out her frail, young life, the
morning Of April II, after long and
painful illness.
The memory of seventeen beautiful
years filled with loving service, hope,
enthusiasm and, for one so young,
with rare accomplishments, becomes
the legacy of her loved ones.
Louise, as she was Familiarity
known, will be greatly missed in
school circles, where she occupied a
large place in the hearts Of her teach
ers and schoolmates. An ambitious.
thoro student, she was also always
ready to use her varied talents for the
benefit Of the whole school. AS a
member Of the school orchestra, she
did much toward creating and main
tanning a taste for music Of a high
order.
Louise was a member Of the A
eighth class Of the Blaine school, from
which, had she lived, she would have
been graduated in Eglne.
The interment was at st. Mary's
cemetery.

ARREST OF BROWN
MAY BE ORDERED
HIS TESTIMONY PLACES HIM
UPON THIN ICE.
The County Attorney is Apparently
Not Barred from Action by Any
Promises of Immunity and the
Court Is Believed to Favor Prosecu-
ton

Will Charles H. Brown, former
clerk of the Ames board Of charities
and corrections be prosecuted for the
graft which he has admitted he and
Johnson secured while running the
poor department.?
In view Of the late developments In
the W. H. Johnson trial this query is
very pertinent and is heard in many
quarters. That Brown is guilty was
heard from his own lips on the wit
ness stand yesterday, but the exact
attitude of the county attorneys of
flee toward a man who has turned
states evidence, is not positively
known at present.
It is given out from the county at
torney's that no promises Whatever
were made to Brown to induce him to
testify What he has told is said to
have been told Of his own volition, and
without. any assurances of immunity
SO that the county attorney Is free to
proceed as he sees fit and it remains
to be seen whether or not he will have
any scruples about prosecuting the
man who helped out the states case
against his fellow worker.
That Brown would have come back
to the city to face such serious charges
after making a perfect getaway
and would have testified to his own
criminality without some understand.
lHS Will LIE dulnOTItleS seello 1uCteu!.
BILE to many who insist that there viii
be no Brown trial.
Judge G.. B. Elliott, before whom
Johnson Is on trial, altho he has made
no public statement of his opinion, i:
| understood to feel that Brown should
| be prosecuted on at least one Of the
| three indictments which have been re-
| turned against him, but upon which
he has never been arrested. It is ever
| limited that at the conclusion of the
| present trial the court may order
| Browns arrest in the event that the
bench warrants which have been IL
the sheriffs possession for months are
not served upon him.
Johnson's Inning Monday.
The Johnson trial will be resumed
| Monday morning. The defense which
| opened it's case yesterday will have
witnesses, including five to character
and the defendant himself, and 1t Il
probable that the case will not go tt
the jury before Wednesday,.
| Robert KOlliner opened for the de
PENDANT yesterday afternoon in brief
direct statement of what it is intended
| to prove. He revealed little but Wha
has been apparent since the opening
of the trial, namely: that the defens
is the proving Of Browns guilt am
Johnson's ignorance of the manage
ment and care Of the poor department
| business matters.
i Orville Rinehart, one Of the mem
bers of the board of charities and cor
rections, was the first witness calle
and he testified that it was Brown an
not Johnson who handed the budget
to the commissioners, that it wa

committee in checking up the &C
counts and in fact that it was Brow
who had entire charge of the book
