MAYOR TALKS OF WORKHoUsE
SENTENCES FOR CHAUFFEURs.
Instructs Police to Enforce the Law
Without Favor-Numbers on Ma
chimes Must Be Plain and Easily
Read-Will Not Take Chances of Ac-
cidents but Will Act Now.

Instructions were given to the police
today to arrest every automobilist who
was in any way violating the laws. The
order was given by Mayor D. P. Jones.
"I am sorry to say that the hoped
for improvement in the conduct of auto
mobilists thru the influence of the Au-
tomobile club has not materialized, -
said the mayor. "Some Of them have
been pretty gay right along and are
apparently wiilfully, ignoring the laws.
On my way down town this morning I
saw three machines in the streets which
did not carry numbers. It must be
plainly understood that the police are
instructed to arrest the drivers of all
machines which do not display the
proper numbers, in the proper place,
and I sincerely trust that the municipal
court Judges will keep their promise to
impose workhouse sentence to all those
arrested the second time. e.e,.-
GA more intimate acquaintance with
ledge at the workhouse quarry and
which is broken up for macadamizing
highways would prove highly beneficial
to some Of these gay automobilists, and
they would, furthermore, render q posi-
tive service to the good roads movement
by preparing the proper material. It
must be understood that the dispal of
fancy numerals is an attempt at eva
sion, as the purpose of the law is that
the numbers shall be dicipherable at the
greatest possible distance, and for that
purpose they must be as plain as pos
sible.
~."Lights must be displayed at night
and fast running, whether at night OF
by day, must be stopped. The practice
is DANGEROUS and we do not purpose tC
wait until people are killed or manned
before regulating the reckless ones. -

EAGLES ROW SERIOUS
JOHN COLWELL WILL BE AR
RESTED AFTER MEETING IN ST.
PAUL TONIGHT.

John Colwell will attend the annual
meeting of the lodge of Eagles in St..
Paul this evening in company with a
deputy sheriff, who will have in his
pocket a warrant for Colwell s arrest.
This warrant, however, will not be
served until after the meeting, at which
officers for the ensuing year will be
elected. III t..
It is alleged that the charge upon
which Colwel will have to stand trial
is a result of an offense committed by
him in 1889 and for which he was SEN
fenced to the reformatory. He was
never committed, however.
Colwen is prominently identified with
one of the factions that has grown uE
in the lodge Of Eagles in st. Paul as a
result Of the campaign for offices. II
is declared by his friends that member:
of the opposing faction, when they
in the election tonight, brought up the
old charge to hurt him. He was ar
rested yesterday by a St: Paul deputy
sheriff, but was released on his owl
recognizance. It is understood nov
that an effort will be made to impeacl
