POWER COMPANIES
WATCH THE RIVER
DANGER IN GORGE AT FOOT OF
THE APRON.
Heavy Damage Resulted from the Jam
OF Last Year-Extensive Repairs of
This Winter Thought to Have Put the
Big Power Plant Beyond Reach of
Ordinary Danger.

The power companies operating the
upper and lower dams are keeping a
close watch on the ice in the river,
which always celebrates the advent of
spring by breaking up and forming a
gorge at the foot of the falls. As yet
there has been but little movement in
the ice field, but it cannot be told when
it will go out.
A little ice went over the upper dam
yesterday into the basin above the
apron, but the water is not high enough
to float it over the top of the apron.
J. T. Baker of the st. Anthony Water
Power company said today that the
gorge which formed last year did con-
siderable damage, smashing the apron
SO that it floated free from the an
chors to which it was attached. Dur
ing the winter much of the damage has
been repaired and the apron will be
able to stand considerable hard usage
1t all depends on how the ice goes
out,' said Mr.. Baker. "If we have
nice warm weather it will gradually
melt and wear away and but little ice
will go over the dams. If we get heavy
rains and the water begins to rise rap
idly, it will break up the solid ice and
send it crashing against the dams OF
| over, in which case it will pile up in
solid barrier, giving us a lot OF
trouble on account of the back water.
"We have had little trouble during
the winter at either dam, but there i.
no way of telling what we may have
Ice is about as uncertain as the wealth
er, so we are always ready for any
| thing.

SUCCESS CROWNED
THEIR EFFORTS
MUSICAL FESTIVAL DEVELOPED
SPLENDID PUBLIC SPIRIT.
Plans and Labor Of Dedication of Audi
torium Perfected and Carried Out by
Business Men Who Knew the Only
Reward Was to Be Thanks Of the
City.

Public spirit played a large. part
in the success of the plans for the in:
auguration musical festival which closed
Saturday night. Business men gave
much time to working out the details
of the plan with no other reward than
Auditorium in Minneapolis, and public
approval of the scheme expressed in
liberal patronage of the concerts.
The backbone of the festival work
was undoubtedly Charles N. Chadbourn,
who has given practically all his time
lately to pushing the musical opening
of the Auditorium to successful issue.
Mr.. Chadbourn is treasurer Of the Phil
harmonic club, which had the manage
absence of President F. Fayram; Vice
President c. E. Fisher, and w. H. Free.
man, secretary Of the chorus, nearly all
the heavy work fell on Mr.. Chadbourn,
who was assisted as to the chorus duties
by Trafford N. Jayne.
With tremendous zeal Mr.. Chad,
bourn took up his duties. The financial
task to be undertaken with great reluc-
| lance. but when executive duties were
thrown on his shoulders at the same
| time, thus making him acting head Of
the festival movement, Mr.. Chadbourn
had for the time being to renounce
|
An able assistant was Miss Eva Blan-
chard, secretary Of the club. The sec
rotary has handled at least 5000 tickets
during the course and ticket sale. A
wonderful memory stood her in good
stead and lightened her work. One
subscriber made several tests Of Miss
faculty by Sd1oPPhing in saats
The secretary would turn immediately
to the section, row and seat, altho the
gentleman had different seats each
night. She had in mind nearly all the
numbers of seats selected by nearly
every subscriber.
Miss Blanchard formerly believed
that newspaper work afforded the best
opportunity for studying human nature
but she knows now that it does not com
pare with the work she has performed
as secretary of the CLUB. >.
To cap the climax of difficulties II
became necessary to transfer part OF
the children chorus to the second bal
tickets with those who had bought the
balcony seats. Then nearly. every houl
someone would come in asking to ex
change seats so as to get them next tt
so-and-so. Miss Blanchard's memory
again proved a faithful servitor, usual
ly making it unnecessary for her to turf
to the books to get the numbers tha s,,h;. n.,
been remarkably gracious and kind Il
it's relations to her and that the sub
scribers were almost uniformly cour
teous in their requests.
An incident that has not been re
lated proves again the public spiri
of M. W. Savage. When it seemed prob
able that the seats built for the Audi
torium would not arrive for the open
ing, Mr.. Savage offered to. suppl,
chairs from the old Auditorium fire.
