Train No. was delayed on the East
side of the river just above the city
last evening something like half an hour
by freight train which had broken
down. The freight was scheduled to ar
rive ahead of the passenger train. but
just as she was coming onto the bridge
draw bar gave way and it was nearly
half an hour before she hauled into the
station, and still further delay was
caused by the tagging in over the
blocks. which the train crews are re-
quired to observe under the block sys-

At THE TRANSFER
MILLIONS SOLD WAIT FOR CARS
TO SHIP THEM.
Have Been Dumped by Coast Lines
Which Refuse to Let Their Cars Co.,
and Connecting Lines Cannot Supply
Cars for Reloadtng-Buyers Are
Waiting and Dealers Impatient. i

More than 200 cars Of red cedar shin
giles from Washington are lying in the
the open air at Minnesota Transfer,
covered with snow, waiting for cars to
move them east and south. The Chi
cago lines declare they are unable to
supply the cars to load the shingles.
The shingles are all sold, and the con-
signeesl are waiting for them impatient
ly. Some were sold in transit from the
coast, but many were sold before leay-
ing the mills, to be delivered at some
future date. All are now overdue on
delivery, but it may be months longer
before they reach their destination.
Meanwhile the buyers are likely to
countermand their orders, if they can
secure shingles elsewhere. Dealers in
the Lumber Exchange are worried over
the situation, but do not know any way
to help it. So
On account of their own car shortage
the transcontinental lines refuse to lei
their cars 60 beyond the limits of theil
own mileage. No other cars can be Sc
cured on the coast, so the shingles have
all come east in Great Northern, North

Says LATIN QUARTER
IS UNJUSTLY VIEWED
NINE. REVIVAL DENIES IT IS
PLACE OF DEBAUCHERY.
French Artist, in Minneapolis, Declares
Students In Famous Studio Section Of
France Live Lives Much the Same as
American University Men-She May
Locate Here.

Student life in the Latin quarter Of
Paris is not the reckless round of dissi-
patton pictured by many Of the writers
who have chosen it's scenes as a back
ground for their stories. Students there
pore over their books and attend lee
lures with a regularity and diligence
equal to that displayed at any univer-
sity in America, according to Nine.
Carlotta Reynal, a New York singer
and teacher who is spending a few
weeks in Minneapolis.
"My husband and I lived for several
years in the Latin quarter,' says Nine.
Reynal. GAS I was married, I was
much in demand as a chaperone at
the inner side of student life. The i'm
preston has gone out that the students
of Paris lead gay and dissipated lives
This is not true, student life in Paris
is little different from student life in
America. There, as here, little notice
is given to the long hours devoted tc
study and attendance at lectures, while
occasional lapses from propriety on the
part of the students are given much
consideration.
"While American students are vel
received socially, they are not SO wei
treated in the schools and have a harder
fight for recognition than French stu
dents. In consequence they work very
hard and really spend little time Ill
amusements Of any sort, much less il
%riotous living. If you meet an Amer
lean who has passed thru the Frencl
schools with credit you may be con
fdent that his student days in tn
Latin quarter were passed very soberl,
and industriously.
"The American colony in Paris i
immense and one can live there 70
years and scarcely come in contact wit
the French people. If, however, on
cares to 60 about and is properly in
troduced he can meet the very bes
people of Paris and be welcomed t
their homes, that is with the exception
Of the nobility, who still maintain tn
traditions of the old regime and cor
%stitute the most exclusive a%ristocrac
in Europe
Since coming to Minneapolis NM
Reynal has been greatly impressed wit
the beauty Of the city and the attra,
{ lions it offers to the artist. She POI
sesses a mezzo-soprano voice which hs
b been trained by the best masters an

STOPS SHORT WEIGHING
City Sealer's Report Shows Punishment
for Frauds.

Frank Gaylord, city sealer Of weights
and measures, submitted his first annual
report yesterday. He inspected. 1926
scales, of which 3O1 were condemned.
The result showed that. one scale in
every ten was inaccurate, most of them
being against the customers. Seventeen
scales and t~wenty-four weights were
.coniscated outright, as being impossible
to repair. He also inspected 332 meas
ures, of which eleven were condemned.
There were appointed 1874 wood in
spectors, and sixty-ive coal inspectors,
for the various fuel yards in the city.
Seven loads Of wood were found to be
short in measurement. Two wood deal
ers were given the alternative Of prose
| cution or going out of business and
| both chose the. latter.
Mr.. GAYLORD recommends the passage
of an ordinance authorizing the seale1
of weights and measures to stop loads
| Of hay, straw and feed and order them
weighed at a public scale.
He also suggests the passage of a law
requiring vegetables and roots to b.
sold by weight, as the measures arr
frequently so made that, altho theil
cubic contents may be standard, thu
customer will not receive an homes
| measure in odd objects.

Thousands Of dollars ere lost annual
~ in Minneapolis I'M fires started thru
criminal negligence. The city council
several years ago passed an ordinance
prohibiting all persons from dumping
ashes against wooden buildings or in

In spite .of~the small loss by fire last
year there was an unusually large num-
Der Of blazes. caused by this negligence.
Some of these fires were started close
to the business district, and with a ia.
vorable wind might have spread over a
large area. The department was for.
turate last year in making stops, but
this year equal attentions going to be
devoted to preventing starts. Chief
Canterbury and Fire Marshal Ringer

Creator Of ChiIdren's Favorlte Characters
Talks at the Auditorium.
Richard F. Outcault, whose creative
genius brought Buster Brown, Tige,, and
sweetheart Mary Jane into the world to
in q measure efface the memory of that
other and previous creation of his, the
Yellow Kid, CAV his cartoon talks at the
Auditorium to a fair-sized audience that
was well pleased yesterday afternoon.
= He probably does not lay claim to being
a lightning sketch artist, but he drew
pictures nearly as rapidly as the vaude-
vile cartoonists and very much better.
He proved to be g. clever talker with a
pleasing personality and he told the story
of his WI struggles as an artist and
how he studied the tow characters from
whom he draws inspiration. s:
