PLAN BIG BUILDING
Ramsey County Medical So.
Clety to Erect Headquarters

The Ramsey County Medical society
is contemplating the building of head
quarters for the medical and scientific
interests Of the northwest. Plans have
been considered for the structure, which
VIII be commodious and modern in
every respect, according to the ex-
pressed desire of the members of the
society. The building will cost some
where in the neighborhood of 500, 600.
While the work has barely started, it
is said that the building will contain
two lecture rooms, laboratory, library,
clubrooms and living apartments Be
sides these there will be an auditorium
large enough to accommodate scientific
gatherings of considerable size. The
medical library of the society now in
cludes 5000 volumes, but when the new
building is ready for occupancy 1t is
believed that ii will have at least 1000
more, making one of the most COM
plete medical libraries in the United
States.
The site for the building has not
been definitely selected, but 1t will un-
doubtedly be in the downtown district.
The work of raising funds for the erec-
ton of the building will be done only
among the members of the society in
this city and the northwest.
The following officers are serving the
society at present: A. w. Dunning,
M. D., president; Burnside Foster, NJ.
D., vice president; F. w. Leavitt M. d..
treasurer; Ethelbert w. Geer, NJ. D.,

port of the temperance committee, of
which Rev. Mr.. Driscoll is the chair
man.
There are $50 saloons in the city"
said Rev. Mr.. Driscoll, land the amount
of trade they do in a year is some
thing enormous

f1c in local and national view
The committee had asked twenty
five churches to give statistics on the

COMMERCIAL CLUB
WANTS LOCAL BRICK
Carries Campaign for Home Products
to the School Board

The first step in the campaign for
home products recently iuaugurated
by the Commercial club was taken yes
terday when resolution was passed
asking the school board to investigate
the recommendation of the architect of
the new Seventh ward school that a
Wisconsin brick be used in preference
to the st. Paul article
The recommendation, according to
the arguments used before the directors
yesterday, is based on the alleged fact
that the Wisconsin brick is so much
cheaper than the st. PaulSarticle that
1t would be possible to fireproof the
school by using the outside material.
1t was pointed out that the entire
cost of pressed brick for the new build
Ing would not be to exceed $500, while
the fireproofing would. cost in the
neighborhood of $500. The directors
take the position that the proposed ex-
penditure should be very carefully
viewed and If possible given to the
st. Paul concern.

SAY ENGINEER DIED
FOR HIS PASSENGERS
Grateful Travellers Acknowledge
Gallant Act of Robert
Murray

The simple little bronze cross pre-
scented to British soldiers who save life
under the guns of an enemy; the con-
gressional medals issued for distin-
guished gallantry in this country; the
biblical benediction. well done thou
good and faithful servant and such
resolutions as were forwarded to the
sorrowing widow of gallant Engineer
Robert Murray, who was killed at his
post in a wreck on the Northern Pa
cific last week, constitute the highest
Acknowledgements that human beings
can pay one another for acts of con-
spicuous and unselfish bravery.
The story of the death of Robert
Murray of Staples was briefly chron-
icled at the time of the accident, but
the dramatic daring and bravery of the
engineer were not emphasized.
"I've Passengers Behind"
The train he was hauling was slip
ping along at a fast speed in the dark
of midnight. From the right hand side
of the cab Murray gazed into the
blackness. His fireman working below
him mechanically shoveled coal into
the firebox with no premonition of
trouble until suddenly Murray applied
the air brakes, pulled shut the throttle
and yelled to him to jump for his life.
There right ahead of the express was
an obstruction. What 1T was no one
could tell at the time, but it was there,
threatening like a submerged reef in
midocean and the express was too close
to heed the powerful check of the
brakes and the reversed power.
Jump, Jack" shouted Murray. And
the fireman leaped for the hand rail.
Come on, Bob,' pleaded the fireman
of his chief. And as he jumped to
safety he heard the engineer reply:
mo, I've got passengers behind
The fireman was saved; the engineer
was killed.
Flowers for Hero
At the funeral Sunday in Staples
following resolutions, which were
drawn UP by the passengers on the
train, who but for Murray's sacrifice
might not have been in position to ten
der condolences:
"To Mrs. Robert Murray, Staples, Mimi:
."On behalf Of the grateful passengers
Tor whose lives your husband gave I'D his
