CANADIAN IMMIGRATION
ASSOCIATION AT WORK

Winnipeg, Man.. Feb. 1.-THE third
annual meeting of the Western Can
adian immigration Association opened
in the Board of Trade rooms here this
morning. The attendance is very large

count Of the fact that large immigra-

necessary to prepare for the unusually
large influx of colonists. Low rail
road rates will be agreed on and the
railroads leading TO the northwest will
be urged to assist in the task of at
tracing immigrants of a desirable
class to the western parts of Canada.

year. After the morning session the
delegates adjourned for luncheon.

Mrs. Norris Thrown Out Of
Dwelling House Camps
on Vacant Lot.
REFUSES ASSISTANCE
Neighbors and Police Offer Cover or
Transportation, But Both Are
Scorned by Old Woman.

Mrs. Norris, the old woman who
was turned cut Of her miserable
home on East State street fort
night ago, is still living on the
street, or rather just off the street
on a vacant lot where her household
effects are still piled exposed to sun
and rain. 1t is a pitiable case and
the neighbors and police are both
vexed that the woman will not listen
to reason, and allow herself and her
goods to be put under cover.
Trustee Richard Schaaf offered
her shelter and offered to pay her
car fare to Toledo. O.. where she has
two sons, but she spurned the offer,
saying that she was no pauper and
would not betreated like one. The
police had several times gone to her
in the vain attempt 10 induce her
to accept shelter. For the past
week she has been sleeping every
night in the open air with her house
hold belongings. AS many as half
dozen of the neighbors thereabouts
have offered to care for her at night
SO she would not have to sleep out
in the cold. But one and all were
| told TO mind their own business.
The neighbors claim that she is men
tally unbalanced, but none of them
seem willing to make affidavit to
that effect. The police claim that
the woman is not insane but that
she is angry at being turned out of
her house, and SO refuses help,
thinking she can get some redress.
When seen this afternon by Times
reporter Chief Rimbach said that he
was at loss to know what to do with
the woma The lot in which she is
camping is private property and un-
less she disturbs the peace of the
neighborhood there is no charge on
which she can be arrested.
For several days her goods are
covered with large tarpaulin be-
longing to Golden Bros, but when
| it was found that the woman was
making no attempt to move, and it
was necessary to take this for use
elsewhere, it was removed
Neighbors in the vicinity are in
dignant and claim they are going to
make trouble if she is not removed
at once Just what procedure they
will take they do not even know
| themselves
IT cannot be denied that both
Trustee Schaaf and the police have
done all that they are able in the
matter.

YOUNG MAN KILLED
IN MYSTERIOUS WAY.
Jacob Mager of St. John, Meets His
Death at Dyer-Dan Saxton
Struck by Train at Tolleston.

Jacob Mayer, aged 20. of St.
John, was killed yesterday at Dyer.
How the young man met his death
will probably be a mystery as he
never gained consciousness. He was
found early in the morning along
the Monon tracks with deep cash
above his left temple. His relatives
were called from ST. John and Ham
mond and reached Dyer in time to
see him die.
It is thought by those who found
him that he was on his way home
from Dyer to st. John intending to
walk the distance, and that he was
struck by a passing freight train
Young Mayer was the youngest
of large family of children and
was well liked by his associates.
His funeral will take place on
Sunday morning at the st. John
cemetery.
