WOMAN WANTS HER SON.
But CANNOT PAY FARE
Small Boy Turned Adrift by Father
Cared for by Relief Society

Willie Hudson. the small boy taken
in charge by the Relief society. has
peen turned over to the Children's
Home society. where he will stay until
his case has been thoroughly investi-
gated by the association.
A letter from his mother, who is at
Altken, Minn., was received Yesterday
IN which she states that she is unable
TO pay the fare for the boy to that CITY.
as her whole fortune consists of 10
cents, but that she would like to have
her son. She begs the society to send
him to her and promises to repay the
fare as soon as possible. She claims
70 nave been deserted by her husband,
who left her penniless with three If
tie children for whom she is now car
ing.
Ii was thought advisable by the So
ciety not to send the boy to his moth
er under such circumstances, but to
investigate the case, and If possible.
can the father, who has written the as
ISOLATION disclaiming all responsibility,
to account.

formation is authority for the following
statement:
1t is generally understood that the
line and staff officers of the military
bodies now stationed at Fort Smelling
are quite friendly with MinneapoIis
and when the proposal was formulated
to extend the car line it received con-
siderable support from the officers.
I have it on the best authority that
the proposed line would seriously in
terfere with future improvements of the
post and l was one of the men who
brought the matter to the attention of
Congressman Stevens. The United
States purposes to spend many thou
sands of dollars within limited period
at Fort Smelling and it would seem too
bad if haste and lack of careful con-
sideration of all the factors bearing
upon the case should result in a move
that would irrevocably harm the
beauty, convenience and utility of the
big fort.
I Il do not know what Mr.. Stevens
wrote to the secretary, but it is not
hard to surmiSe that he placed the facts
In the case before the department in
such way that the present plans will
have to be changed in several material
particulars before consent to build the
line is granted. If it had not been for
his letter and telegram it is more than
likely that the application would have
been approved by the department as a
matter of course"

FIND BODY IN RIVER
Beem Hands Discover Remains
of Minneapolis Man

The body of man believed to be
Elon Tolf of Minneapolis was discov-
cred floating in the river at the St
Paul boom yesterday noon. The body
was noticed by a boom hand and was
floating near the shore when discover
ed. Coroner Miller was called and or
dered the body taken to the morgue.
The body was that of man about go
years DID, of medium build, and with
sandy hair and whiskers. 1t had been
in the water about four months. A
letter was found in the clothing of the
dead man bearing the address. Elon
Tolf, 13S Eighth street, Joliet, ILL.,, and
a notebook also bearing the name of
Elon Tolf was discovered. The fea-
lures of the man were almost I'M
recognizable on account of long con-
tact with the water. but he is believed
to be Elon Tolf, who on the evening of
Dec. 81, 1904, during a fit of insanity,
jumped from the second story of a
boarding house at 1908 Second ave-
nue. south, Minneapolis, after terror
1zing the rest of the roomers. The man
disappeared in the night and no trace
was every found of him since. Moth
ing is known of his relatives. The
body will be held at the county
morgue while the authorities investi-
gate the case.
