WISE ONES WAKING UP
POLITICIANS INTERESTED IN CUB
ERNATORIAL ASPIRATIONS
THRU MCKINLEY DAY DINNER.

Political stwise ones' are keeping an
eye N the Mckinley day dinner that
is to be given Jan. 90, by the Mckinley
Republican club, better known as the
Fourth Ward Republican club. The
reason Of the interest in the affair is
the promised array Of gubernatorial
timber that is expected. Invitations
have been sent to every party. leader
who has been mentioned in any way
as a possible candidate. The list in
cludes State Senator Samuel Lord Of
Kasson, State Treasurer Julius Block,
j. F. jacobson Of Madison, A. l.. Cole
of Walker and others.
The, real opening of the. campaign
is expected at the county organization
dinner, Feb. 10, but the Mckinley din
ner nevertheless will be interesting to
those who are beginning to feel the
'tcall Of the wild'' and want to get out
and spend their evenings downtown.
All Of the mentioned candidates are
more or less we'll known in Minneap:
oils. YE<tS
Replies are pouring in from all parts
Of the state for the Lincoln day din
ner, Feb. IL. County Chairman Thomas
n. Girling has sent Invitations to party
leaders all over the state, and the tone
and number of the replies would seem
to indicate that politics is still a live,
interesting subject. Harmony in large,
bright letters is the keynote Of all of
the correspondence.

CHICAGO MURDERER
IS IN MINNEAPOLIS?

Frank J. Constantine, Jra supposed
murderer Of Mrs. Arthur Gentry in
Chicago, is thought to be in Minneapo-,
lis today, and two detectives are shad-
owing q man who answers the descrlp-
ton of the murderer. The police re-
ceived a detailed description of Con
stantine last night, and barely an hour
later it was reported that a man exact
" answering his description had been
Seen in one of the cigar stores.
This man came into the store last
night and bought several black i'm
ported cigars, the kind that C%onstan-
tine is said to smoke necessarily. He
appeared to be nervous, but tried to
appear calm and his efforts at once ex-
cited the suspicion Of the clerk, who
called up police headquarters and asked
for a detective. Two officers were de-
tailed on the case and as they arrived
| before,the man left the store they were
| able to follow his about the city. Con-
| ~stantine is said to have injured his
hand in the struggle with his victim.
The man who was in the cigar store
last night had one of his hands in a
| bandage and answered the description
! of the man wanted in every detail.
The police. will not speak of the mat
| ter today. but it is known that the Off
! GERS have told all who saw the mys-
terious stranger last night to do no
talking, and they have been working
energetically OF the case today.
A picture of Constantine will arrive
in Minneapolis today. AS soon as this
arrives the detectives will know wheth-
er they dare arrest the man.

SEND MONEY TO
THE. AL.
Grand total all funds. $5,181.60

Those who feel like contributing to
the Berwin memorial fund should not
beb backward because they cannot give
r amounts. The Journal fund
was started largely for the subscrip-
lions OF those who may. have little to
give, but whose appreciation of Cap
taln Berwln' g heroism and sympathy
FOR his " idow and children is as strong
as OF those who c an afford to con-
tribute more literally.
MIS-. Berwin said to ThoJournal
Saturday that what touched her the
most was the expressions Of sympathy
that had come to her on all sides from
those whom she did not know. That
people living in other towns should
send contributions she thought indicate
ca q feellng SO genuine that, she felt
1nexpressably grateful. s:.
The fire departments Of three other
towns, Moorhead, Rochester and Fair
mont, today made contributions, which
are credited, and those are from de-
partments made up Of men. who par
TALLY or wholly, give.wtheir services
voluntarily to protect tho lives and
property of citizens, and who appre-
clate the gallantry of the sacrifice of
q life in this line Of duty.
The Chamber of Commerce fund has
closed, but The Journals will be
kept open 50 long as there are re.
sponses. Never mind how small your
contribution, send it to The Jour
nal-every little bit helps. : r.

A SMALLPOX SCARE

Smallpox is giving the pupils and
teachers of the st. Louis Park school a
two-days vacation. "A mild case has
been discovered In a house nearby and
as the children Of the infected family
have been about the school, it was
thought best to give the building 9
thoro fumigation and it has been closed
for this purpose.
The park is threatened with a small
pox scare as members Of the afflicted
family have been going about the COM
muhity and it is reported that one girl,
actually suffering with the dread dis
ease, has been at large. The case is d
very mild one, and, until a few days
ago, did not seem to require the attend
ance Of a physician. As soon as a doc
tor was called he discovered the nature
OF the disease and placed the family in
quarantine.

Simmons School Opened.

The new Henry M. Simmons building
on Minnehaha venue and Thirty-eighth
street, took lao pupils from the Long
fellow school which has had many
pupils on halliday sessions for a long
time. In addition all that part of the
district north Of the Milwaukee short
line tracks has been added to the
Seward district which takes seventy
more pupils away from the Longfellow.
The annex at the Schiller school con-
tains two rooms and will care for the
overflow at that building. The Tuttle
school also will be able to accommo-
date all the children, twenty having
been sent today to the Holmes school,
those remaining being provided with
seats in a recitation room.
At the Clinton school, where more
than 200 pupils were on half sessions,
nearly all of the last semester, the sit
