Minneapolis, Oct. 24.-Bound and
gagged and left to die, his head a few
feet below gas fixture, the valve
wide open, Benjamin Ridges, librarian
at the North Side library on Twentieth
avenue, was rescued by the police at
1920 p. m. just as the death stupor
was becoming manifest,
Ridges is now in the city hospital In
a critical condition from the gas fumes
and the beating he received at the
hands of two masked men who are
still at large
Shortly after 8 p. nj. Ridges, who
was alone in the library, started to
close up and was about to leave when
two masked men seized him by the
throat and hurled him to the floor.
Ridges was then bound and gagged
and left lying On the floor while the
thugs searched the building They
took SIS in cash from the till.
Then, disappointed at the small
amount OF plumber, the fiends beat
Ridges into insensibility.
Not satisfied with this, the thugs
closed the doors and windows and,
dragging Ridges unconscious form be-
meath one Of the gas fixtures, turned
On the gas and left him to die.
Ridges recovered consciousness,
worked the gag from his mouth, butted
the telephone receiver from its hook

The action was instituted by Steph-

the complaint in his own behalf and
on behalf of all other policyholders Of
the company to- restrain waste and
diversion Of the company's funds and
to compel the directors to account for
the large sums already expended in

The action is the result of the com

through the company's agents with the
names Of the candidates on the inter
national committee ticket stricken off,
and each ballot containing the num-

the war department and the creation
Of the general staff. The law establish
ing the general staff went into effect

officers detailed from the army at

scribed by the president. It's duties
are to prepare plans for national de-

relating to the efficiency Of the army
and it's preparedness for war and to
assist the secretary of war and other
officers in performance of duty.
The general staff Is composed of one
chief of staff and two general officers
from the army not below the grade of
brigadier general, four colonies, six
lieutenant colonies, twelve majors and
twenty captains.

Leading an exemplary life herself,
she finds much good in the lives Of
others to describe or about which to
relate incidents. Miss Morris married
Frederick G. Harriott in 1874, and they
have a pretty home at Riyerdale- on
the-Hudson. Besides contributing to
magazines and newspapers, Miss Nor
ris has written several novels.

childhood, when mother brought home

Yorker who visited him at Glencairn
short time ago described the former
Tammany chieftain as lamenting that
on revisiting the United States he
would find so many of his friends Of

about the grounds of his castle in

vorite collie at his heels. He had
big watering pot with him, with which
he was refreshing the beds Of flowers
on his lawn. Everywhere within the
