NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
Thief Is Found Guilty of Grand
Larceny

John Bowes walked into the jewelry
store of Henry JACKIE, on East Seventh
street, and asked to be shown a watch.
On being shown nine timepieces from
the stock of the establishment, Bowes
declared that none of them appealed to
him sufficiently to induce a purchase.
The clerk who had been waiting upon
the man went in search of other offer
ings, and upon his return could see but
eight watches.
BOwes selected watch from the
second lot and asked to have the case
engraved, whereupon he started for the
door, but was called back and request
ed to deliver up the ninth, watch. He
protested his ignorance as to its where
abouts, but, as the door had been lock-
ed by the proprietor, remained until the
arrival of an unfeeling police officer,
who, despite Bowes protests that the
storekeeper had taken his watch, un-
earthed the missing article and took
Bowes to the police station. Yester-
day before Judge Kelly Bowes was
found guilty of grand larceny and was
remanded for sentence, which will be
imposed upon him at the close of the
present session of the criminal branch
of the court. At the same time Peter

TWO MEN ENLIST IN
THE MARINE CORPS
Opening Of Recruiting Office Draws
Many Applicants


Capt. George Thorpe, of the United
States navy, who has been in st. Paul
for the past week, yesterday opened
the recruiting office in the old federal
building, where applications for en-
listment in the marine corps service
will be examined.
Capt. Thorpe received many appli-
cations for enlistment as soon as his
posters were put around the city, and
before he was able to take care of the
applicants. AS soon as he opened UP
for business yesterday he received two
men who fulfilled every requirement,
Cornelius w. Sullivan and Carl r.
Larson, a jeweler, living at 134 Gran
lite street. The young men will leave
for New York this morning. going via
Chicago, Washington and Philadelphia,
and will have their transportation,
meals and all necessities of the trip
furnished by the government On their
arrival they will be fitted out with
dress and a service uniform, with
complete equipment of underwear
shirts, etc. The term of service for
which a man must enlist is four years
and the longer he serves the higher
wages he receives, starting with $13 a
month. Although few men do it, it is
possible to save the entire $13 as
clothing, medical attendance and board
and lodging are furnished. All men
entering this branch of the service
start as privates, but if man pays at

Inc annual convention of the Mime
sofa grand lodge, Sons of Hermann.
was opened in Mozart hall at 10 o'clock
Yesterday morning. The opening ad-
dress was given by the grand president
eharles Harpke, of st. Paul, who pre-
seHted Louis Betz. Mr. Betz welcomed
tne delegates to st. Paul in the name
OF Mayor Smith, who was unable to at
tend because of his Illness. The presi-
dent then reported on the condition of
the organization, which now numbers
$500 initiates, 297 of whom were taken
IN this year, while the Ladies' auxiliary
has ], 400 members. He started an aej-
tation to have the present state organi-
zatlon take in the present Wisconsin
organization and North and South Da-
kota. which have no state grand lodge.
These states are very anxious to com
pine with the Minnesota grand lodge
for purposes Of mutual benefit from the

this way took in the territories of New

presidents report was referred to a

place it under such regulations as will
place the insurance feature under state
control. Without the insurance de-
partment being under state control it

entitled. The plan is very strongly op-
posed, however.
Three years ago 1t was decided to
erect q home for the aged and infirm
members by the voluntary offerings of
the members, but the contributions
were not as large nor as numerous
as was expected, and in the three years
only about $4,000 has been raised,
and those faVoring the home are try
ing to have further funds raised by
assessment but the majority of the
members seem to be against the plan.
1t is expected that this proposition and
the one regarding the extension of the
grand lodge will be voted on, at this
mornings session, leaving the after
noon session for the election of Off
GERS and six delegates to the national
convention at Seattle next September.
A new constitution and bylaws for the
national lodge have been prepared and
will be submitted to the delegates at
this convention, but the delegates from
the Minnesota grand lodge will be in
structed this morning.
A musical programme, followed by a
dance, was rendered the delegates at
Mozart hall last evening, all the Ger
man singing societies of the city par
ticipating. Miss Busshjaeger gave
vocal solo, and George ReSse recited
Recruits" Choruses were sung by
the Concordia, Arion and Mozart sing

a concert piece.
The officers of the Minnesota grand
lodge who will retire after todays elee-
ton are: Grand President Carl Harpke
Grand Secretary Hermann Cirkle

trustees Herman Vogt, of ST. Paul;

Might Cost Millions
The matter of the expenditure Of
$4,000 is a small matter. We had bet
ter lose that than several millions by
acting hastily. If we pass the code
now and find when we get home that
state officers salaries have been raised
materially, You will agree that we viii
all stay at home two years hence"
Questions were asked the commits
s1oners in the long discussion relating
to changes in the code. Among the
changes suggested as having been
made were: Putting municipal judges
on salary basis; requiring corpora
tons to post statements of their in
debtedness; omission by which 1t is
claimed that authority for municipal
bonds for public improvements has
been destroyed; a drastic measure re-
latfng to real estate loans by savings
banks; change in the form of adop-
ton of bylaws for corporations;
changes in: the Somerville law relating
to foreign corporations doing business
IN. Minnesota; changes in the railroad
freight tariff laws; change from dis
tr1ct supervisor to township road super
visor, and changes in the salaries of
county officers of certain of the larger
COuutleS OI the state.
Many Questions Asked
Among the members and others who
interrogated the code commission were
Senator Somerville, Senator Schaller, SEN
