Discarded Dry Batteries Were Mistaken
for Dynamite Bombs by an Imagina-
tive Pedestrian Who, Out of Pure
Benevolence, Guarded the Spot and

Pedestrians who walked to. work this
morning along Second avenue or Eighth

by an excited man who stood in front
Of the Church Of the Redeemer and
warned them not to come near the cor
ner. as the gutter was filed with dyn-
amite bombs.
Altho all did not believe him, they
needed his warning and walked on the
other side of the street. Faithful to his
self-imposed duty, the strange man
stood guard until the working throngs
had passed, and then reported the mat
ter to the police. s,54
He knew the anarchist g tools when
he saw them, he said, and he was con-
fdent that someone had planned to
blow up the church and had been fright
ened away, leaving the bombs in the
gutter. The police were skeptical, but
sent Sergeant Tom Russell and a pa
trolman to investigate. i s.2,.@
In the gutter that runs along Sec

GOOD PLAN CAME
JUST TOO LATE
ALUMNUs OFFERS A CLEVER
SCHEME FOR ENLARGEMENT.
Would Have Condemned Land Between
University Avenue and Railroad
Tracks North Of Campus and Erected
New Main on University Avenue,
Thus Saving Drill Ground

If Charles B. Rowland, Duluth cap
ltallst, had visited his alma mater one
month sooner the new main building
at the University of Minnesota wouiu
not have been erected on the campus
drlllground, and the problem of more
room for university buildings would
have been solved.
Mr.. Rowland was graduated from the
university in 1894 and since that time
has become wealthy thru operations on
the Mesaba iron range. During his col
lege career Mr.. Hoyland was prominent
in college activities and since his grad
uatlOn he has been active among the
alumni. Upon arriving in the city he
visited the university and inspected the
proposed site for the new Main, on
University avenue, between Fifteenth
ahdss Sixteenth avenues Sc. With the,
idea Of saving the battle-ground, he for
mulated "a plan for the condemnation
Of the land between University avenue
and the railroad tracks north Of the
campus end extending from the Four
teenth avenue bridge to Eighteenth
avenue Sc. AS an assurance of good
faith, he guaranteed to raise 100000
from alumni and to pledge personal
donation of $25,000 to start the move
ment. The new Main and other uni
versity buildings were, under his plan,
W NC eEecIeO along UlnVoISlCy avenue,
thus forming university quadrangle,
with the physics building as the only
building on the open campus.
The plan was presented to several of
the university authorities, but was not
made public until today. 1t was Sc
riously considered and it would have
been accepted, if it had not been for the
fact that plans for the new main had
been drawn and arrangements made for
laying the foundation. The regents
also felt that it would take at least two
years to complete condemnation pro-
ceedings against the property owners
on the tract in question, and the build
ing Of the new main would be delayed
for that length Of time. Mr.. Rowland,
however, offered to erect temporary
! frame structure on the campus for the
use of the academic classes.
1t is understood that an attempt will
ultimately be made by Mr.. Rowland
and other prominent alumni to obtain
for the university the land included in
Mr.. Rowland s plan. While in Mime
apolis Mr.. Hovland stated that he
could guarantee to raise $4,000 in Du-
luth alone Of the amount required, to
carry thru the plan.

F. II. Aim of Fairbanks, Alaska, is at
the ST.. James hotel today on his way
to Topen, Norway, his native home,
which he left sixteen years ago to make
his fortune in the new world. Tho he

"All the claims at Fairbanks are on
crock beds. Each man is allowed an
original claim, 800 feet long, and $50
feet in width, across the creek valley.
AS a rule, however, the claims fall
much short of this allowance, because
when it was first staked, no one mag,
ined how rich the ground was. They
are all underground mines. The one ]

more of gravel to bed rock under the
stream. !, That is where you find the
gold in greatest quantities. -
"Does the water from the stream
above trouble us9 No, indeed. The
ground there never thaws out all veal
long: This Is a great blessing to the
miner. The frost soidifes the gravel
makes it absolutely water tight an6
strong, and permits the working Of
many a mine which could not be oper
ate at all in a warm climate"

no toll will be charged for Minneapolis

ST. Paul calls from phones that are on
Minneapolis lines. About 800 telephone
subscribers are bettered by the new
rule.
