That's the cry at Aliens Foundry.
New tools, new ideas new methods
these are words that spell success, these
the means that enable this modern es-
Establishment to turn out work in the
shortest possible time and in the best
possible manner. Realizing the utter
impossIbility OF keeping pace with the
ever Increasing demands OF their bust
ness unless changes were made in the
equipment and facilities of the shops,
the enterprising proprietors Of Allen g
Foundry have risen to the occasion by
thoroughly remodelling the plant, ex-
tending the grounds and installing a
lot OF the finest machinery that money
can buy, enabling them to treble their
output and 20 handle work of any and
all grades. Besides the splendid facil-
tiles they have for executing all kinds
OF repair work, they are engaged in
the manufacture of such articles as
cane derricks, carrier feeders, cane
cars, logging cars, horse powers,
hosting engines, ETC., and the many
testimonials they have received go to
show that they are doing their work
satisfactorily and well.
Carpenters are now putting the fn-
ishing touches on the extensive addi-
tons that have been made to the orig
inal plant and in few days the
shops will have a greater capacity
than any in the state outside Of New
Orleans. The genial gentlemen who
established and are so successfully
operating Aliens Foundry are the pink
OF courtesy and take pleasure in es-
corting those interested through the
various departments and in exhibiting
the many wonderful tools that go to
make wonderful plant.

Progress In Construction of Drainage
Canals Through Ascension, As
sumption and St James.
Secretary Walter Lemann OF the
Mississippi and Lafourche Drainage
Board, which has been actively push
ing the work OF drainage in the parishes
of Ascension. St. j mes and Assump-
ton since October, 1903, furnishes the
following statement as to the work
done by the board up TO date:
The first dredge-boat started work
in October, 1908, and by the end Of
August, 1904, had excav ated 100, 7.32
cubic yards, completing nine and one
half miles of canal. The January re-
port Of Daney & Waddell, the engi-
neers in charge of the work, shows
that the dredge advanced 1885 feet
during the month and exeaVa ted 49,
921. 98 cubic yards OF dirt, reaching
the thirteenth and nine-tenths-m mile
points. While the yardage during that
month was lower than usual, the dis
tance covered was great. causing con-
siderable timeto be spent in moving the
dredge; the mouth of every important
coulee was opened and that work is
not counted in the yarda age. The dredge
built by the board near Lapice station
began work January %, 1905, and has
dug q large. deep basin and is now
working towards Bayou Napoleon TO
meet the first dredge. When this chan
mel is completed a fine waterway from
Lapice to the Gulf of Mexico will be
the result. The board has already re-
deemed $40, 900 of the 500, 900 bond is
sue, as will be shown by the following
financial statement, Which covers the
period from the date o. anization,
A n,.i1 IL. 1909. to January Is. 1905.

FIVE YEARS. EFFORT
ENDED IN FAILURE

After trying for five years to get his
case before a jury, John Todd yester-
day succeeded in introducing all his
evidence only to have, Judge H. D.
Dickinson direct verdict for the de-
PENDANT, William j. Bettigen The
plaintiff, undaunted, says he will APP
peal. f..
The protracted litigation arose over
the ownership Of an elevator at Ores
den, n. D., that was supposed to be
transferred to balance the value Of
respective blocks Of stock. Bettigen
made parole contract to turn over
the elevator, valued at $4,000, to Todd,
who traded in the more valuable stock.
The transfer has never been made
and the plaintiff brought suit to COM
pei 1T about five years ago. A parole
contract to transfer real estate cannot
be enforced. It is contended by the
plaintiff, however, that the elevator
is personal property, that the ground
rights secured from the company are
infnitesimal, and that the contrac ct
merely affected the personal property,
the elevator.
After almost countless attempts to
bring the case to trial before a Jury,
Judge Dickinson allowed the introduc-.
tion of evidence, realizing that the
| equity lay with the plaintiff. After
| listening to the evidence, however. he
held that the value of the building de-
pended upon its location to such an ex-
| tent that it must be connected there
with in order for it's value to approx
mate $4,000, the amount sued for. Since
the contract was not serviceable he
| directed verdict for the defendant

WILL BE DISGRACED
IF THEY TELL STORY

Another "baby farm keeper is
under the eye Of the authorities, and
it is expected that she will be in the
tolls by Monday.
A more unusual or complicated case
rarely comes to the attention Of the
authorities.
A mother and her daughter came to
Minneapolis from one Of the smaller
cities of the northwest an darranged
with a "baby farm to dispose Of a
child. The expense was paid and the
mother and girl returned home.
This week they came back, but on a
different errand. The girl, who a year
ago was heavy hearted and disconso-
late, was cheerful and happy. She was
accompanied by her husband, and the
twin were in search Of the babe aban-
doned a year ago.
The baby farm keeper refused to pro-
duce the child or give any information
as to it's whereabouts. The young cou-
pie threatened to appeal to the author
tiles. The woman defed them and thew
carried out the threat. The parents
care only for the recovery of the baby
and are not anxious to prosecute the
woman, but the authorities insist that
the law must take its course

SITE FOR GODFREY HOUSE
SUBCOMMITTEE WILL RECON-
MEND PURCHASE OF LOT ADJ
JOINING P1LLsBURY LIBRARY,
ON THE REAR.

A site has been selected for the per-
manent home of the Ard Godfrey house,
the oldest house now standing in the
city, and one of the three first built in
old St. Anthony. The subcommittee to-
day at the office of w. Y. Chute, decid-
ed that the Chute park would give too
little room, and will recommend that
the house be placed on lot just in the
rear of the Pillsbury library. This
lot is 46x132 feet, and fronts on First
avenue S. The house could be heated
by steam from the library building,
avoiding danger Of fire.
The meeting was att tended by Fred L.
Smith and E. w. Decker, representing
the park board; F. G. O'Brien and Ma.
jor Edwin Clark, representing the Pho
neer's association, and E. G. Gale ard
W. Y. Chute, representing the Native
Sons. It will report to the general
committee at the mayors office, Mon.
day at 4 pm. It is probable that the
house will first be moved to the park OF
to corner of the exposition property
Tor the exercises June /. These will
be held from platform on the east
steps. or if the weather is bad, inside
the international auditorium. M. W
Savage gave his consent today to either
program.
Major Clark has suggested that 6
brick building be put up on the lots Sc
lected, as an annex to the library, il
which may be housed the large paint
lngs belonging to the Pillsbury estate
which used to be feature Of the expo
slt1ons.. They are now stored in the
exposition building, out of sight and II
danger from fire.

CORONER CALLED;
FOUND Man ALIVE
MAN SHOT THRU BODY REFUSES
| TO DIE.
Attempt at Suicide Defeated BY Re-
markable Vitality-Pronounced Dying
by a Physician, Man Lives Without
Attention for an Hour Waiting the
Coroner, Who Sends Him to Hospital.

Nels Anderson, laborer, lay in his
room at 1926 Twenty-fourth avenue s,
with his life-blood ebbing away yester-
day afternoon, waiting for the coroner
to come and pronounce him dead. A
physician had pronounced him past hope
but when the coroner came the man
was alive. He still lives.
Anderson had sent bullet thru his
chest with suicidal intent, and was
found in pool Of blood by his room
mate, Nels Olson, who returned from
to arouse the wounded man, hurried
downstairs, where he hailed DR.. M. J..
Jensen, who was passing.
After hasty examination, DR.. Jensen
said that nothing could be done for
the man and, telling the people of the
house to summon the coroner, he went
away. He had also given instructions
that nothing in the house be touched
and that the dying man s room be left
exactly as it was.
Deputy Coroner Irvine was notified.
but the persons in the house, fearing the
hand Of the laws dared not touch or
aid the wounded man, who was scarcely
breathing. AS the Ncoroner's duty is
with the dead and not the living, he did
not get to the house for an hour.
Surprised to find that the man was
still alive, Dr.. Irvine hastily summoned
the South Side patrol wagon and had
Anderson taken to the city hospital,
where his wound was dressed. Here the
patient rallied and this morning showed
Improvement.
DR.. Jensen said today that when he
examined the man the pulse and respira.
tion were 50 low that he thought the
patient could live but a few min.
utes at the outside. He was surprised
to learn that he had lived thru the
night. -~-
