| days Of the event he knew tnut Fred
had been accepted by thc ex-diver's
daughter.
He wrote the lucky man a congratu-
latory letter, and he added something
else in the shape Of a postscript, which
| read as follows:
Il hear that Adamson has invented
something sensational in the way Of
| wreck raising appliances. I have made
him nj offer which he has refused.
Perhaps you are in the old divers cou-
fidence. If SO l will give f1OO for q
peep at a true copy Of the plans. You
will, of course. burn this letter"
For 1.-The credit of the family" as he
put it, Fred did burn the letter, but not
before he had tossed it Indignantly
over the table to his cousin, vino
! shared his lodgings.
Mr.. John Saunders was somewhat
thick-skinncd. All the same his ears
tinSled as he read the unf1attering
epIstle which reached him next morn
ing from his nephew Fred.
80! so!" he muttered. I'm the I'M
happy uncle Of a %virtuous nephew, 1t
seems. Destroyed my letter, has he.
Ah!" he vent on, picking up another
letter and opening it; what have we
here:'
This second letter was also from
Timberport, and its contents seemed to
please 1.-The unhappy uncle Of a Writ
uous nephew" much better than did
the previous epistle.
"Ha! ha!' he laughed softly, and
there was a very unpleasant light in
his eyes. Fred for virtue, Frank for
brains! An ak of his own to grind,
! has he?'
Mr.. John Saunders committed Trel's
letter to the flames. The envelope he
kept, unlocking a drawer and carefully
| placing it among his private papers.

DEAFENED BY LIGHTNING
BOLT STRIKES RICHFIELD HOUSE,
INJURING ONE-LITTLE GIRL
BADLY HURT.

The thunderstorm which brought re-
lief. for many yesterday afternoon, also
inflicted injury upon several.
Mrs. A. Thompson, wife Of the Meth
odist pastor at Richfeld, was deafened,
it is feared permanently, by bolt of
lightning which struck the parsonage.
The bolt ripped thru the roof, tore a
jagged hole thru the house, tore up the
front walk and started fire, which did
considerable damage before it was ex-
tinguished. Mrs. Thompson was not in
the room thru which the bolt passed,
and so escaped the full force Of the
shock, but was hurled to the floor and
badly burned. She was brought to Min
neapois late yesterday afternoon. and
placed under the care of physician.
Mr.. Thompson, who was also in the
house, escaped injury.
Blanch Clementson, the 8-year-old
daughter Of Sigfried Clementson, $50
Sixth avenue NJ WAS struck by light
ming and badly injured. She was run
ming for shelter when the bolt struck
her. By some freak the lightning
struck her leg and passed thru it into
the ground, burning and decorating the
limb, but inficting no other injury be-
You'd the shock. She will recover.
The butcher shop of Charles Feiser,
Thomas and Mackubin streets, st. Paul,
was struck. The bolt entered at an
upper window and Jared the building
damage. The three men who were in
the shop were badly frightened, but re-
ceived no injuries. y

DEYINE SHOWS PENlTENCE
MAN WHO KILLED WILLIAM WAL
LACE ON 500 TRAIN PLEADS
NOT GU1LTY-INQUEST FRIDAY.

John Devine, who is charged with
killing William Wallace on a 500 train
n ,e Buffalo, MINI, was arraigned in
murder in the first degree. He waived
examination and was held to the grand
jury WITHOUT bail. -.
Devine is common laborer, about As
years old and has an unusually kind
face. When he stood up to answer to
the charge he showed the effects of the
mental agony he has passed thru. He
answered the few questions gently and
then sank back into his chair seemingly
exhaust ted. His grief over the act
seems to be sincere, and to all appear.
ances he is the kindliest Of men when
not under the influence of liquor.
Altho the charge in the lower court
is first degree murder, a lessor charge
will probably be preferred by the grand
jury. A coroner's inquest will be held
at the county morgue, Friday morning,
at 9 o'clock.

THE ARCHITECT's SECRET

r.. ClippinpS

Architects and Contractors Are Among
the Largest Users of Newspaper
Clippings.
Notwithstanding the fact that this is
an unusual year for building Of all
kinds in all parts Of the country, the
fact remains that there is still some
competition between architects for the
drawing Of plans, and between contract
ors for carrying them out Other things
being equal, it is the first man on the
ground who gets the business. The
problem, therefore, resolves itself into
the question of getting the earliest
possible information Of work to be
done. This is where the newspaper
clipping bureau is useful In the case
of all public work such as schools,
courthouses, city halls, jails, water
works, electric light plants, etc, the
first step is usually the voting Of bonds.
The clipping bureau gets this informa-
ton at once, not only for bond buyers,
to whom it is of great value, but for
the architect, consulting engineer and
contractor
Every day as regularly as the sun
rises this information is placed upon
the desk Of the architect who is sub
scriber to the service. Every name on
the list is a potential customer. The
architect or contractor who has a clip
ping service has great advantage over
his neighbor who has not. #
Mr.. Pollock, $40 Sykes block, is the
one to whom the architects in the twin
cities and the northwest turn for aid
of this kind. He has patrons for in

by the board OF education at the urgent
request of a committee consisting of
Fred R. Salisbury, B. F. Nelson, G. A.
Smith, w. G. Nye, Fred E. Barney and
E. G. Potter, who explained that Tues
day, the opening day of school, hap
pened to be Minneapolis day, at the
state fair. It was not only desirable
that the children be given an oppor-
tunity of seeing the fair, but that Min
neapolis should t'boost' = the big show
as much as possible by giving it large
attendance. The school directors ap-
preciated the force of both points and
granted the children and teachers an
additional holiday.
A resolution prohibiting the partici-
patton of secret-society members in
any high-school event or function was
adopted as one Of the means of repress-
ing the evil. The resolution is as fol-
