SICK GIRL IN j:
HOSPITAL AMBULANCE TEAM
RUNS AWAY AND DRIVER
SHOWS HEROISM IN MAKING

A hospital ambulance with a sick
girl, her parents and physician
locked inside, and the horses wildly
dashing to seeming destruction, startled
people on Seventh street S early today.
! The ambulance belonged to the Swed-
ish hospital. It had been sent to the
Union station to meet Zella Haynes, a
patient from Tracy, girl suffering
with severe case of fever. The pa
tient was attended by her parents and
DR.. Seaburg Of the hospital staff ac-
companied the ambulance. J..
When the sufferer and the attendant
and physician were safely inside, the
driver, Jacob Crooks, began the home
ward trip. At Seventh street S and
Sixth avenue, the, team became fright:
ened, caused by the breaking of one Of
the reins. The animals began a mad
dash along the street, the people inside
being helpless TO escape or to render
assistance. ,-.... vile. =.
With a nerve that everybody who
saw it admired and commended, the
driver climbed over the dashboard and
along the pole of the ambulance until
he could grasp the bride reins and
bring the team to a stop. The team
was stopped, but not until the horses
had dashed into telegraph pole,
wrecking one of the ambulance wheels
and badly smashing the vehicle itself.
The three persons inside were badly
shaken up, and at the hospital it could
not be foretold what the effect would
be on the sick girl. ve.

Semi-annual figures from the board
Of charities and corrections, submitted
to the board yesterday, are gratifying
to the commissioners as they show q
saving Of about $4,000 for the first six
months Of the present year compared
wit hthe corresponding period Of last

reduction in expense, but the efficiency
Of the departments has not only been
maintained but in some cases increased.
The city hospital for the first six
months cost $26, 119.45 as compared
with $27,977.97 for the first half Of
1905, a saving Of $1,85952. It is not

it with being a monopoly and violating

not DESTROYS of putting the Duluth

brought only for the purpose Of MAX

IF the state can have full guaran-

be willing to drop the suit with that
stipulation.
It is understood that the state is in

HILL What Is Charged
The complaint alleges, among
other things, that the rules of the
board Of trade lay down the commits
sion to be charged in dealings, and spe-
city that in dealings between members
rates Of commission may be arranged

body not a member the rate fixed is
ironelad; that the board is organized to
and prevent those not members from
It is also alleged that the Minnesota
Farmers exchange applied for mem,
bership early in the fall of 1905, and
was turned down for the reason that
the rules Of the board are against split
| ting commissions. The Farmers ex'
this and applied again. It is charged
that it's second application was arbitra'
rily turned down. Then the exchange
proceeded to sell to members here, and
It is alleged that the board Of trade
stopped its members from buying.

DID EXACTLY RIGHT.

The investigation of the Eastern
State Hospital has closed and the ma
iority and minority reports have been
given to the public. The general board
for hospitals met Immediately and
adopted the minority report which in
our opinion was the proper thing to
do. 1t was evident to our mind soon
after the commencing of this investi-
cation that changes should be made,
and the proper place to begin was al
the head and go clean down the line.
There was no charge of general mis-
demeanOrs, but a lack of harmony
among the officials, and kind of neg
lect Of business principles in managing
the institution. When such a condition
as this exists in public institution it
should be changed and new blood in
nsed for its betterment. Public mat
tiers are too often left to drag along
when those in authority refuse to do
their duty, many times endorsing
abuses that they would not tolerate
for a moment in their private affairs
A change once in while does much
good. When once in power the long
stay often does incalculable harm to
the public. But by patience and long
suffering the day of retribution comes
We look for a general stimulus in the
affairs of that institution from now on
