.DUNWOODYS GIVE
HOME TO CHARITY
GIFT rs ABSOLUTE TO WoMEN's
CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION.
Old Family Mansion at Tenth Street
and Mary Place Will Become Women's
Boarding Home Within Year-Direc-
tcrs Of Organization Accept Gift With
fearful Thanks.

Mr.. and Mrs. w. H. Dunwoody have
given to the directors of the Women s
Christian Association their old home, SO
West Tenth street, across Mary place
from the Y. NJ. c. A. building. ri
The fift was received by the direc-
tors with great appreciation and loud
clapping this morning when they met
at the Women's boarding home, 400
Sixth street s. The letter rendering
the gift of this beautiful home which
Mr.. and Mrs. Dunwoody are leaving
for their new home on Mount Curve
avenue, was read by Mrs. E., NJ La
Penotiere who, with difficulty, con-
trolled her voice. -..-- .... -.r. ,..,
The letter made the restriction that
within twelve months it be used for a
home and that it never be turned to
other use, -
The property includes three deep lots,
thus allowing prenty of room for fur
ther additions to the house, to be made
in the course of year or two. The
house in it's present condition has not
the accommodating qualities of the
present location, but before going into
it the rooms will be divided to allow
more girls a home there. The present
homo has been placed on the market.
Mrs. La Penotiere valued the, property
at 100000. d. -

ALBERT LEA IS IN
HANDS OF j. c. 7.
EVERY TRAVELLER IN THE STATE

Minneapolis Contributes 200, and with
Journal Newsboys' Band Makes Fine
Appearance-Entertaining City Is
Gay with U. g. r. Colors and Every
Home Is Ready with a Spare Bed.

Two hundred travelling men, many of
them accompanied by women, took
special train on the MINNEAPOLIS & st.
Louis road this morning to attend the
thirteenth annual session of the grand
council OF the United Commercial TRAY
elers at Albert Lea. E...--. ~, p.
The Journal Newsboys' band headed
the Mlnnehaha council delegation and
played several selections on the depot
train. "We Blow for Minnehaha'
read the banner that accompanied them.
The SANITY city council delegation
from st. Paul was already on the train,
and number Of U. e. r. had gone
on ahead to be present at the opening
of the council at Albert Lea this morn
ing. Representatives Of number of
councils from other towns in the north
west joined the twin city delegation
here, Among them were: D. G. Gal
lett, secretary of Aberdeen council; Gus
CSrookston council; Harry E. Payne,
Terry McCosker, w. n. Tinker and
Colonel Frank Hanson of Grand Forks
council; W. Il. Grass Of Fargo, past
grand counselor. -.
Minneapolis council, No. 63, had a
ball team which is to play with the
team of the sanity city council for
prize Of $1OO.
Badges and other distinguishing in
sigma were much in evidence. Mime
apolis- council wore buttons adorned
with the portrait of it's senior coun-
selor, J. L. Gable, and carried white
and gold umbrellas, the colors of the
order. Minnehaha council wore badges
of yellow and handsome watchfobs
that will serve as souvenirs. The dele
cation expects to leave Albert Lea for
the return trip Sunday at 10 am. over
the Rock Island.
The campaign to secure concessions
from railroads in the way of inter
changeable mileage and excess baggage
books is the important matter before
the grand council, and Eben E. Nc
Leod, chairman of the Western Passen-
ger association, is expected to make an
address, and listen to- the travelling
mems side Of the question. Laws for
better protection OF guests in hotels
is another matter of practical interest
and the proposition to interest travelling
men in a stock company to build and
operate hotel at Minneapolis will be
taken up as a side issue. st. Paul and
Grand Forks are rivals for the grand
council meeting in 1907.
