ELECTS OFFICERS
State VIII Be Asked to Pur-
chase Worlds Fair Min
nesota Statue

A meeting Of the Minnesota State Art
society was held in the old capitol yester-
day afternoon and officers for the year
were elected. All the old officers retained
their places.
President Koehler was asked to appoint
two associates who, with himself, are to
lookSafter the society's interests in the
legislature.
formal motion was passed recon-
mending that the state be asked to pur-
chase the Minnesota statue on exhibit at
the st. Louis exposition and order it
brought here.
The statue is the work Of Gustave Gar
ZACH and is considered an excellent piece
of work It is the intention of the art
society to have it placed in the new capi-
tol, but if the statue is too large, arrange
ments will be made to have it erected at
the state fair grounds.
The society has received an invitation
from the German art societies to attend
their exhibition at Munich this spring and
will write to Eastern societies requesting
that a united effort be made to send an
exhibit to Germany, and it is probable that
the government will be asked for an ap-
preparation.
The society expects to be in its rooms
at the new capitol very soon and is max
ing arrangements to borrow furniture In
case it's own is not ready by the time the
rooms are finished.

CONTRACTOR FINDS
STONE UNDER STREET
E. j. kirkIand's Bid for Sewer Work Is
Cancelled by Aldermen

E. J. Kirkland, who was given the
contract for the construction of the
Palace street sewer system, was last
evening relieved of responsibility by
the board of aldermen.
Kirkland contended that when he
offered to do the work for $1,000 he
supposed the necessary excavating was
through earth, but has since learned
that it is largely through stone. If
compelled to carry out the contract as
granted by the board of public works
he would lose considerable money.
Upon the strength of this statement
the aldermen voted to reject all bids
and authorize the board of public
works to readvertise.
The estimate Of the city engineer is
that the work will cost $1,000. Kirk
lands bid was about $4,000 below that
of the next lowest bidder.

FALSE DECLARATION
COSTS INSURANCE
Widow of Member of United
Worlmen Loses Suit
Against Order

Because a member of the Ancient
Order of United Workmen was three
years older than he said he was at the
time he joined the order, his Work
mans policy of insurance for $4,000
was declared void yesterday in the dis
trict court.
This decision, the last signed by
Judge Jaggard before ascending the
supreme bench, was filed yesterday. 1t
gives judgment for the defendant in
the case of Araminta III. Taylor against
the Grand Lodge Of United Workmen
of Minnesota.
The plaintiff is the widow of Wilbur
N. Taylor, who died at Minneapolis in
November, 1903. He left policy Of
$4,000 in the Order of Workmen; he
had paid all his dues and assessments.
But payment of the policy was refused
on the ground that he had violated the
conditions of the instrument.
AS Judge Jaggard finds, the work
men will admit no member to insur-
ance benefits who was more than forty
five years old when he received his first
degree in the fraternity.
Mr.. Taylor was really forty seven
years old, 1t is said, when he was in
itiated at Minneapolis by Upchurch
lodge No. 13, A. o. u. w. But he then
asserted, in his application for mem
bership, that he was forty-four. This
application, moreover, contained the
provision that if any of the statements
therein should prove to be false the
applicant should forfeit all benefits of
membership and all dues or other pay
ments made to the order
The court mentions that, while the
case was pending, the Minnesota grand
lodge offered to refund to Mrs.. Taylor
the sum of the insurance assessments
that her husband had paid. This offer,
apparently, was not accepted
