REMOVAL RECORD
4. LAW TO Be TESTED

Alderman William Peterson s ordi-
nance, requiring expressmen and others
engaged in the moving business to re-
port to the police the names and ad-
dresses of all persons changing resi-
dences has been of little aid to the
police. Arrests will probably be made
soon to test the validity of the ordi-
nance. License Inspector George Long,
fellow, who has charge Of the removal
department for the police, has returned
to work after several months illness
and will take the matter up at once.
Since the ordinance went into effect
about half of those moving have been
reported. The large van companies
have refused to make reports, and the
police understand that they consider the
ordinance illegal. AS the larger com
panies handle half the business, the rec
o1ds are practically worthless.
The purpose of the ordinance was to
furnish the police with the addresses OF
those who move. Often a man wanted
badly, either for light he can throw or
a crime or for the crime itself, viii
move, and the work will be done sc
quietly that he can remain in hiding
until the case has been dropped. There
are other cases, in which out-of- towr
persons wish to find relatives or friends
in event Of accident, and in which rec
ords such as those provided by the ordi
nance would be valuable.
Arrests will probably have to be made
| if the companies refuse to comply will
| the ordinance. In that case a Ions
| fight may be necessary before the case
can finally be settled

NEW CODE SAYS BATES
CAN MARRY, AFTER ALL

"Court commissioners are empowered
to perform marriage ceremonies by the
new code,' declared Court Commits
sioner William F. Bates today in en-
phatic denial Of the story that these
officials had been stripped Of this au-
thority. .r-> -. =
"Altho the code does repeal the pro-
vision Of the laws of 1897 giving the
court commissioners the authority to
marry people, and chapter 1866 does not
name court commissioners as having the
right to perform the marriage cere-
mony, this right is nevertheless con-
ferred upon district judges in chambers,
and section 148, chapter Of the new
code reads: Court commissioners shall
be men learned in the law and shall
have and may exercise the judicial pow
ers of a Judge Of the district court at
! chambers.
"The object of the statute revision
commission was to condense and simpli.
our statute law. They accomplished
their purpose, but in this instance they
did SO in manner that has caused mis-.
understanding and misrepresentation.
This Interpretation of Che code is also
approved by Judge Daniel Fish, q
member of the revision commission.

PLANTING PINES
Forestry Board Starts Work on Re-
serve. on Small Scale.

The state forestry board is going to
do the best it can in planting seedlings
on the Pillsbury forest reserve, without
specific appropriation for that pur--
fund will be used. General C. G. An
drews and Professor S. B. Green have
just returned from visit to the re-
serve, where they started work on plant
ing 10000 two-yearoId white pine seed
ings, brought from Germany. They
will be planted in alternate rows with
Norway pine and spruce seedlings
grown in the nursery on the reserve.
There are about 100000 seedlings on the
out. If the money will hold out they
will be put in this season.

FINDS HER FATHER
A SUICIDE In HOME

Arne Green. father Of Mrs. Frank
Murdoch, committed suicide by turning
ments Of his daughter at Nicollet ave
nue. and Thirteenth street last evening.
Mrs. Murdoch found the dead body Of
her father in an upright position in a
chair when she returned home. The
old man had attached a long gas tube to
the Jet and had placed the open end at
his nostrils. The windows of the room
were tightly closed and everything
showed that the old man had made de-
iberate preparations for his death.
Relatives cannot explain Mr.. Green 3

years old. but was in good health. He
had lived with his daughter for some

Weather Indications,

The low pressure area over the Lake
Winnipeg region yesterday morning has
moved eastward and southwark, and
now overlies the upper lake region, ex-
tending from there southwestward into
Kansas. The movement Of this low
pressure area has been attended by
light rains during the past tw enty-four
hours in the upper lake region, Wis
eonsin, Minnesota, parts of the Da-
kotas and western Canadian provinces,
and in Montana, and from Arkansas
and northern Louisiana eastward to the
coast. The temperatures are higher
than they were yesterday morning in
the lake region, the southern Rocky
mountain region and the middle Mis-
sissippi valley, and they are lower in
Minnesota and the Dakotas and thence
westward to the coast, due to the west
erly winds coming in after the passage
of the low pressure area; this cooling
will continue tonight, and will probably
cause frost in this vicinity Fair
weather is expected tonight and Satur-
day. 49,. +,

PAIR MISSING AND
HOMES DESERTED
MOTHER OF ONE FLOCK, FATHER
,oF ANOTHER, GONE.
Two Families Under One Roof Mourn
Because of the Disappearance Of a
Man and Woman--Both Left Notes
of Farewell to Deserted Spouses.

Frank W. Conway, 300 Twenty-fifth
avenue NE, and Mrs. Frank Kelble Of
the same address mysteriously disap-
peared Wednesday night. In the de-
serted homes are, respectively, q wife
band and three small children.
The Conways and Kelbles have lived
for some time in the same building,
which was owned by Mrs Kelble.
Kelble, who lost both legs in a rail
road accident in Omaha several years
ago, works as a fagman for the North
ern Pacific, and until the time of her
departure his wife kept a confection-
cry store in the front Of the building.
Neither the man nor the woman gave
any hint that they intended to leave
Wednesday, and their present addresses
are unknown. Mrs. Kelble left the
house Wednesday evening, ostensibly
to 90 to lodge meeting. Late that
evening her husband looked into her
room and discovered that her clothes
were missing. A note on the table,
addressed to him, read:
"Dear Frank: I can't stay any
longer, SO take care of the children and
let my mother have the baby. Your
wife. - ,# ..s. 80
Her Husband Gone. -
Kelble went upstairs to tell the Con-
ways OF his trouble, thinking perhaps
it might be practical joke, but Mrs.
Conway met him at the door with the
statement that her husband had dis,
appeared and had left note for her.
He told her in the note to take care Of
the children and he would send her
money when he obtained work. She
was also told to look in a certain
drawer and she would find $240. This
money was found as directed.
The following morning Kelble re-
ceived letter from his wife and one
from Conway, in which each corrobor-
ated the notes written the night be-
fore. Neither Conway nor Mrs. Kelble
mentioned the other in the letters.
Mrs. Conway is left with little means
of support and Kelble must care for
his three children. He was once we'll
TODD, as the railroad company that
was responsible for his injury gave him
| $4,000. That is all spent now, how
ever, and he is compelled to work fol-
small wages. In order to prevent any
bills from being charged to him, he
has taken the matter into the courts
and has announced that he will not be
responsible for any bills contracted by
his wife. He will try to have the store
| which is in Mrs. Kelble's name, kept
for the children -..
Conway and Kelble worked in the
same wards in Northeast Minneapolis
and had been friends.
