Children at Hamilton and Minnehaha
Buildings Will Be Supplied with
Water from Donaldson Well-Condi-

A. D. Needs, city chemist. The board
of education has already made arrange

from Donaldson g artesian well to the
Hamilton school and will make similar
provisions for the Minnehaha school as

from Mr.. Needs. . r.
The board of education has six water
wagons in service at an expense OF
about $4,000 year, but the Hamilton
and Minnehaha schools have not been
supplied with water as they are located
in rather sparsely settled sections of
the city and the wells were believed to
be safe. There has been considerable
typhoid fever at Camden place in the
last few months and this caused DR.;
order an analysis of the well water in
the affected district. Almost every
well proved to be contaminated and
was condemned. AS all are surface
wells the contamination is due to drain
age from cesspools.
Water Found Bad.
The conditions at Camden Place attracted at
tention to the well at the Hamilton school, ane
this was also found to be contaminated to an ex
tent that made the use of the water source OF
danger. Then all the school wells were ordered
examined.

TAILORS UNITE TO
BEAT DEADBEAIS
TWIN CITY ORGANIZATION SEEKS
A CASH BASIS.
Merchant Tailors of Minneapolis and
St. Paul Form an Association Intend
ed to Stamp Out the Occasional Prac-
tice of Neglecting to Pay Bills.

Dress .dilettantes and tconnoozers'
in the sartorial, who fit from tailor to
tailor, yet pay not, had best beware.
Radical steps were taken by the mer-
chant tailors Of Minneapolis and St.
Paul last night at the Hotel Nicollet
to eradicate the dead-beat habit of Gus
toners, SO far as the tailors are con-
cerned. The members of the two ex-
chan es formed the Twin City Mer-
chant Tailors' association: It's chief
purpose is to do away with the poor
credit system in use and to bring the
business down to a cash basis. Per-
sons entitled to credit will receive it,
as before, but the man who orders suits
from several different tailors and pays
for none of them is to be spotted.
Works Well in st. Paul.
For several weeks ST.. Paul ,tailors
have been working under the new plan
and find it effective. The system is an
improvement on one used successfully
by the retail grocers. It calls for a
daily interchange of information by
telephone. Undesirable customers will
be listed, and names Of new customers
will be registered daily in both cities,
and -theinformation exchanged each
day thru the clearinghouse. It will
be serious offense for any tailor to
sell customer who owes any. member
of the association, except for cash.
Rigorous rules will be enforced ir
the case Of confirmed deadbeats. Thei1
accounts will be placed in Judgment
and sold at auction.
The association will incorporate anl
the funds Of the two exchanges will
be placed in the common treasury.
Officers Are Elected.
Officers were elected as follows
President, F. E. Tallant, Minneapolis
vicepresident, F. A. Reed, MINNEAPOLIS
treasurer, P. J. Schaub, st. Paul. F. W
Greaves, who has been secretary Of tn
