TAKING BACK DESERTER
ST. PAUL BOY QUIT THE NAVY
WHEN HIS MOTHER SENT FOR
HIM. .. e."

The naval recruiting station which
has had headquarters at the postoffce
during the past week locked its doors
today. The next visit will be from
Dec. 1S to Dec. 23. About eleven re-
cruits have been secured.
lit is possible,V said Chief Master
of Arms w. H. Belknap today, " that a
permanent station may be established
in Minneapolis the first Of next year.
The results from the travelling recruit
ing parties is not very satisfactory,
About six thousand more men are
needed for the navy and it is probable
that the next congress will increase the
standing naval strength by 1000 more
men. Provisions are now made for
10000 men, but 1000 of these are in the
navy yards, on the training boats, etc.
These men do not help to man the boats
and many Of the big cruisers are short
handed. . e..
"One of the recruits secured when
the party was in st. Paul last April will
be taken back by us under arrest. It
is a sad case, but I do not think that
the court martial will result in severe
penalty. The recruit is boy who was
taken as an apprentice. A short time
ago he received letter from his mother
saying that his father had suddenly
gone insane and that she wanted him
to come home. Instead of taking the
letter to the captain and getting a leave
of absence he left immediately. Yes.
terday he gave himself up. The court
martial will take into consideration the
circumstances. Two years is the ex
treme penalty, but it may be reduced
to one day. III .

LA TOILETTE MONDAY
Wisconsin s Unique Governor to Speak
at Fairgrounds. .s

The appearance Of Governor Robert
La Toilette at the state Fairgrounds on
Monday bids fair to be a great occa-
sion. His wide repute as an orator,
with the prominence which he has as
sumed in the political world by his an
tagonism to "the machine,' make him
a star. The management at the fair
grounds met Wisconsin man who had
just heard La Toilette, ard he re-
marked, "Ycu had better secure few
acres of ground for the people to stand
on who will want to hear him. In
consequence Of this hint the printed
program Of the Bible conference for
today was set aside, and the day given
to multiplying the seats in Machinery
hall. The Fairgrounds have been pretty
generally raked and it is believed now
that whatever the crowd, there will be
a comfortable seat for ever person at
tending. The low gate admission Of
25c; the reduced railway fare, on the
certificate plan; and the ease with
which the fairgrounds can be reached
from the twin cities by the Como line,
all conspire to insure great audience.
At Chautauguas about the country
this summer, thousands have crowded
to hear Robert La Toilette, and he has
been pronounced the orator Of every
occasion. His theme also is one in
which the public will be especially in
terested, "The Menace of the Ma
chine.

.BIJOU HAS BEEN
ALL DONE OVER
PLAYHOUSE BEING MADE A DE-
LIGHT TO THE EYE.
Some Architectural Changes, an En-
Ntirely New Color Scheme and Re
arrangement Of the Lighting System
Among the improvements Going On
Season Will Open Sept. 8.

Notwithstanding the fact that the
Bijou opera house has been closed since
the middle Of June, the building has
not been dull place by any means.
lmme mediately following the day of clos
ing, stage artists gave way to a small
army OF artisans who took charge of

opening OF the season, which is an
nounced to occur the Sunday afternoon
OF fair week, Sept. 3. The theater is
now crowded to the roof with scat
folding, and the L. A. McIvor company
is busily engaged in redecorating the
ing. In speaking of the changes being
made, Mr.. Hayes, the resident manager,
s!'The redecoration Of the Bijou is not
the ordinary cleanup, but it has in
cluded the complete rehabilitation of the
theater, from pit, to dome, including the
complete refnishing and change of color
of. all hardwood work. All the walls
and ceiling have been washed and all
old color removed and an entire change
of the color scheme introduced, the ef-
feet Of which is promised to be most
pleasing, bringing out a sit does the
structural features of the theater in
been marked change in the electric
wiring wherever possible, and conduit
work of the most approved type has
been substituted for the old-style work.
A new arrangement of the lights with
the addition of many new lamps and
fixtures has also been made thruout the
building and the illuminative features
will be more novel and elaborate and
more pleasing than ever before. In this
connection a new and surprising fea-
ture has been planned which is quite an
| innovation, as far as: local theaters are
| concerned, and which is sure to meet
with merited appreciation. The sum-
mer work has also given an opportunity
for the Improvement of some parts OF
the auditorium architecturally and tho
changes in this connection are promised
to be a surprise, as some remarkably
striking effects have been secured. Spe-
cial treatment has been given the lobby
and foyer, which are promised to be
beautiful and elaborate in decoration
and ornamentation.
The Bijou opening attraction will be
the perennial success, "In Old Ken
tucky.' Plays may come and plays
may go, but F'In Old Kentucky will
doubtless go on forever. This will be
it's thirteenth annual tour, and the en-
gagement will extend to the Pacific
Coast, returning to Chicago for the
Christmas holidays.

Very Little Precipitation at the Lake
Thermometer Fell Nearly Thirty De-
grees-One Heat Prostration Yester-
dayHow the Storm Was Formed
by Currents Of Heated Air.
FREAKS OF THE STORM

Another freak storm struck Mime
apolls, last night and many people
feared repetition of the tornado of
last August. The barometer was jerky
but there was no decided fall or rise.
Within a few hours the mercury fell
thirty degrees and the drop was fol-
lowed by two thunderstorms The wind
but there was practically no damage.
Before the cooling breeze reached the
city there was one severe heat prostra
tion. Frank Germond, 1914 Hennepin
avenue, was overcome while driving in
a buggy at the corner of Grant and
Willow streets. He was taken to
nearby store until help arrived, and he
was then carried to the city hospital.
His case is serious, but hope is held out
for his recovery. sss"T.
Predictions were for cooler weather
today, but from daybreak, with tenn
perature OF 81, there has been con-
tinua! rise, the mercury reaching 79 at
10 o'clock, 80 at noon, and "a at /
pm. However, fair and cooler weather
is expected tomorrow. H.
"A brief, scientific explanation Of last
nights storm is that as soon as the
sun rose above the horizon at daybreak
the. fields, pastures and cities became
rapidly heated and the warmth was
radiated into the air. The air being
heated expanded and began to ascend.
The little currents of air grew larger
and swifter and united with others. At
last huge currents were rushed up
wards, forced bv the cold, heavy upper
winds, which descended and in their
turn were warmed. Thus vast circu-
laticn grew up. The warm air, when it
reached the, upper ether, was cooled and
the -vapor began to condense, forming
the heavy black clouds. The continued
accumulation thru the hot day sur
charged the air and there was a gen.
eral instability Of a the atmosphere.
Finally the drop in the temperature
from 4 pm. to 8 clock condensed the
vapor to liquid and the rain fell.

TO THE a-a-
Knights Terraplar'
OF THE WORLD.

If there is any truth in this world it finds Its
purest expression in The relations that exist be-
tween brother Masons.
When Mason in distress seeks brother
Mason for his confidence and advice that moment
the prejudices and ethics of the professional and
commercial worlds are bloited out and truth
comes as near being crystalIized into substance
as human relations permit.
Now to the point: There are tens of thousands
of Masons in the United States. and the homes
of many clouded by the presence Of Bright's
Disease and Diabetes.
We make to you the solemn announcement
that the cure for these hitherto fatal diseases
has positively been discovered in this city. And
we come to ycu with the proof that you yonr-
selves would ask. The recoveries i'll this city
run into hundreds and record the names Of three
thirty-third degree Masons. one of whom re-
covered himself and two others had members of
their own families saved and this. too. after
medical science had seemingly been exhausted.
1t is Masonic to do good. You know some to
whom this information would be literally god
send. In their interest in the interest Of suf-
fering thousands eli over The United States,
in the interest of humanity, we are permitted to
give Jou the names of these of your brethren
into whose homes happiness has been carried by
the restoration of loved ones when all hope was
gone and who knowing the truth, will tell you.
You know how to approach each other to get
the eternal truth Faithfully yours.

MAY BUILD ON
old MAIN SITE
PROBABLE LOCATION OF WON
ANS BUILDING AT THE .tU.'
Preliminary Plans Drawn by a Mem
ber of the Faculty Structure Will
Be Two Stories High-Co Eds to Be
Consulted as to Their Preference for
Site.

The site of the new Woman's Build
ing at the university, made possible by
the recent gift Of 100000 by Thomas
Shevlin, viii be the most Important
matter to come up before the meeting
of the board of regents Aug. 8: At
present the board favors placing the
new building on the site. of the old
main building. This situation will also
have the Endorsement of number OF
the girls of the school.
Two other sites have been considered
by the girls and will be brought before
their league. The first is the riverbank
between the main building and the
library, which would afford pleasant
view of the river and also give the
girls some degree of seclusion. Some
members of the faculty and those
women and girls who are looking for
ward to the time when there will be
a dormitory on the campus, hope the
regents will decide to place the build.
ing on the university ground across the
railroad tracks. This situation would
necessitate bridge connecting the two
parts of the campus. At the same time
it would take the girls. from the rush
and chatter Of the campus and would
give them a partial isolation without
robbing them of any convenience. The
atmosphere of such building is every
thing, and thus separated from the rest
of the campus the girls would be left
to make their own atmosphere.
This property has been saved for
botanical gardens, but as there Is no
prospect Of using this place for the
department, many members of the fac
ulty think the building would better
be placed there. Then, too, there is
enough space that when the time comes
for. a dormitory, it can occupy the
logical position, next to the woman IS
building.
"On the other hand, the woman g
building will be comparatively small
about two stories and a basement,' said
j. T. Wyman, president of the board of
regents, "and would not interfere with
the view Of the library, if placed on
the main site. Moreover, it would be
convenient to the library and the new
main building. Word has been sent tc
a prominent worker in the Woman 's
league, asking what the girls will want
Individually and as an organization. The
woman's building is designed for the
girls and it is but right that they should
have a voice in it's placing. Already
| preliminary plans have been drawn by
a member of the faculty.
DR.. Cyrus Northrup is in Connecticut
visiting brother who is i'll, and viii
probably not return until <ug. 20. Il
is the intention to put in the foundation
for the building in the autumn.

TWO NEW ELEVATORS
Minneapolis Dry Goods Company Is Re-
placing It's Old Ones. .

In order to keep pace with the rapid
ly increasing strides Of their business
the Minneapolis Dry Goods company is
installing two new giant Elektron cleo
trio elevators in their store.
For some time it has been apparent
to the firm that the service afforded by
the old elevators was inadequate. The
elevators were too small and too slow.
The new ones will each be capable Of
carrying 3,40O pounds, each will meas
ure nine feet by six feet four inches.
This necessitates the enlargement of
the present shafts to accommodate the
new "lifts.v
The Elektrons will hav, ca maximum
speed of 200 feet per minute. They will
be equipped with every safety device
known. One car will be in service Aug,
15, and the other Sept. /. - :,
