and then at the twenty sturdy men
who sat in the waiting-room and re-
fused to stir unless jobs exactly to
their tastes were offered, he became
disguised and ordered the room
cleared. -
Captain Brown formed himself into
a riot squad and descended upon the
gang IF loafers like charge Of heavy
dragons. In a short time the over
strong contingent found itself on the
outside looking at locked DOORS
Such things make me tired,' said
Captain Gooding, commenting on this
incident. HHere were half more than
enough jobs to go around, and Louis
Levy of the state employment bureau
telephoning for woodsmen every half
hour, and those loafers hanging around
waiting for easy jobs. There is no
reason why any able bodied man in
Minneapolis should be out Of work now.

who are living in the home are either
sick in bed or too i'll to do regular

INDIAN WOMEN In STYLE
FINE CLOAKS AND FURS IN
GATHERING THAT DREW GOV
ERNMENT MONEY TODAY

Simon Michelet, Indian agent at the
White Earth reservation, with his
clerk, Dan McDougal, and assistant
clerk, J. b. Perrault, both Indians,
were at Hotel Niccllet this morning.
making payments for the government
to some twenty Indians who failed
to get allowances from Uncle Sam last
fall. --.a
The writing-room on the second floor
of the hotel was converted into pay
office, but from the appearance of the
applicants, few would guess they hal
any claim on the federal payrolls as
Indian wards. But two full-blooded
Indians appeared, to eighteen who had
but just enough Indian in their make,
ups to claim an allowance. AS long
connection with one of the White
Earth tribes, he is entitled to share
of the funds.
Most Of the applicants today were
women, and tho all were of dark com
plexion, there was little else about
them to tell of their ancestry. Most
of the women were neatly dressed
some of them quite stylishly attired
in cloaks and furs.
The payments today were small
each individual getting three different
allowances. One allowance of Sc each
was for the sale of Indian timber, an al
lowance Of $50 each was advance
payment Of interest on Indian funds in
the federal treasury, and third pay
ment of $40 was on an old claim
which has been pending since the six
ties, and which was finally brought to
a focus by Mr.. Michelet, who inter
ested himself in behalf Of the Indians
in his charge.
This evening Mr.. Michelet and his
aides will leave for Sandstone. Mr.
Michelet has understood the Indians OF
the Mile Laes tribe, living in that vi
entity, are in hard circumstances, and
is accordingly making this side TRIP
for their especial benefit to make tc
them such payments as the government
will permit. There are nearly three
hundred Indians in and about Sand
stone who will participate in the dis
| tribution there tomorrow of q few dol
| lars to each one. From Sandstone Mr.
| Michelet will return direct to the
| White Earth reservation.

MAYOR DEFINES
THE one VI ISSUE
ITS PATTERSON CONTRACT FAIR
IL AND REASONABLE?"
He Says That the Taxpayers Are Vital
ly Interested in the Query, Which Is
Now Up to the City Council-Be-
ieves Aldermanic Majority Will Act
Fairly.

Considerable comment has been Gre
ated by the mayor s veto message on
the omnibus street lighting resolution.
Mr.. Jones has been criticized in certain
quarters and there has been an evident
effort to embroil him in serious con
fict with the aldermen, in other words,
to range the council as united body
against the mayor, by arousing the Ill
will Of the aldermen. In order to
make his position more clearly under
stood, the mayor made the following
statement today: e.. w 5
While have no intention of engag-
ing in a newspaper controversy over
the matters involved in my veto mes
sage, canont afford to permit my atti-
tude IN the premises to be misrepresent-
ed by special pleaders for the Patter-
son contract. I have not criticized or
commented upon the course of the eoun-
Gil in taking the course which it did at
its last meeting. Neither did I have
any intention Of keeping back from the
aldermen the grounds for my action
when scaled the veto message and
placed it in the hands Of the city clerk.
Nearly all the facts and figures en-
bodied IN my message were used in the
council by Chairman Hertig Of the gas
committee, and have been available for
weeks to anyone interested on either
side of the proposition, for [ have dis
cussed them freely whenever the sub
lect was brought up before me. Those
facts and figures were obtained from
official sources in both Cleveland and
Chicago, the statements concerning the
latter city having been secured by me
personally while in Chicago recently.
AS to the economic value to the city of
the use of governors, I am perfectly
content to rest upon the expressed opin-
ion Of our owl. city gas inspector, whom
l; assume to- be fair, competent and
wholly DISTINGUISHED when he saws
there IS little or. none. %@5..:5E.
The main, if not the only, point at
issue at the present time is whether the
terms of the Patterson contract are fair
and reasonable toward the city. In
the determination of that point the tax.
payers are certainly far more inter
ested than I could possibly. be except
as one of them. The whoH matter is
now in the hands Of the city council fol
a verdict and have confidence that q
majority of that body will consider the
question on it's merits and not allow
themsel Ives to be diverted from the rea]
issue-have the rights of the CITY been
fully conserved in the street lighting
contract now under considerationao

RECORD Is SUSTAINED
Burlesque and Vaudeville Bill a
Dewey Is Well-Balanced Show.

DS"SS ID i" SAA-oo%Aee1ASCu ouOW. -
Reilly & Woods live up to their
record of always having sometime
new in the burlesque and vaudeville
line, and their show at the Dewey
theater this week is exceptionally
strong.
!: New and original scenery and unique
costumes add greatly to the show and
some Of the electrical effects are mar.
Vicious. The burlesques are catchy, up
to-date, and especially written to per-
nit the introduction Of several new
features. The comedians, Kennedy
and Evans are old favorites and they
make the whole show go with a snap.
They are assisted in their work by a
well-drilled chorus of good voices. The
dancing numbers are above the aver
age.
In the olio, Kennedy and Evans have
the leading number with their Irish
skit. The situations are cleverly han
died and there is nothing dry in TIL
number. Ira Kessner sings the illus
trated songs, assisted by the chorus
and audience.
III The Revere sisters have been seen
here before in their high-class dancing
turn. Their turn is still somewhat
spoiled by their singing attempts. The
Golden ballet is a clever bit Of. work
by the chorus and the scenic effects
are beautiful DAILY and Reno have
a lively acrobatic stunt that takes
well, and Orth and Fern present their
success of last year, skit entitled
Sign That Book.

DIR. J. B. HINGELEY REPORTS TO
METHODIST PREACHERS Re
Suits OF MONEY RAISING
WORK.

DIR. J. B. Hingeley, secretary Of the
church, read a paper this morning at
the Methodist ministers meeting, on
the work Of different societies, for
= raising funds for the support Of SUI
perannuates. DR.. Hingeley was in
structed by the Northern Minnesota

$34, 1000. In view Of this, the amount
set to be raised has been increased to
$780, 900. Mr.. Bradley, one of the IN
fuential Duluth members of the church,
has contributed $4,000 to the fund.
The fund was started a few years ago
by poor Anoka widow with a con-
trlbutlOn OF So and at the annual con-
ference in Eveleth last fall the matter
was taken up again with the above re-
suits. A board Of trustees, composed
OF prominent church members and four
laymen, is taking charge Of the money,
and the interest on the $4,000 will be
used to make provision for the pension
Ing OF the thirty-fve ministers and the
widows who are connected with the
Northern Minnesota conference. The
annual amount of pensions will be $40
for each year Of active service, and in
case where ministers have been in the
work only a few years an additional
provision will be made
The Congregational ministers meet
ing at Plymouth church was unusually
interesting, as DR.. Henry G. King, presi-
dent Of Oberlin college, gave a short
talk. He spoke on "The Psychology of
the Simple Life.' % o. -
At the Central Baptist church, Rev.
! L. A. Crandall paid a tribute to the late
president of Chicago University. Mr..
Grandall spoke at length, emphasizing
the wonderful strength and power Of
! character Of DR.. Harper.

PARK SKATING ENDS
Lack of Interest in Sport Prompts Clos
ing Of Kinks.

Skating on the park ponds has ended
for the present season by order of Park
Superintendent Theodore Wirth, and
tomorrow the work Of pulling down
the warming houses will begin.
Mr.. With said today that there is is
week or two the attendance at the park
Kinks has been light. some days as low
as forty persons taking advantage of
the skating privileges.
AS the park funds are low and the
board is anxious to save money in every
way, it was decided that there would
be no great protest if the Kinks were
abandoned. There will doubtless be
fine skating weather for two or three
weeks, but if the skaters do not pat
ronize the Kinks the board is willing to
close them.
