The heorism of young nurse at the
City hospital has resulted in the sac
of the life of a 7-year-old boy, suffer-
ing with the dread malady, scarlet
fever. Dorothy Marlowe, a beautiful
vivacious girl, only recently admitted
to the City hospital as a nurse, was
assigned to care for Willie Norman,
a scarlet fever patient. At the time
it was like the pronouncement of the
death penalty to the young girl, for
the horrible disease was the nightmare
of her work, and she told her COM
panions among the nurses that she
knew she would never leave the boys
sick room alive. Just two days after
she took the child in care she was
stricken with sickness, and on the
22nd death claimed it's victim. The
girls body was shipped to Lancaster.
Wis. Wednesday afternoon for burial
there, her fathers home. Miss Mar
lowe has parents living at Lancaster.
Her brother, Dr. G. c. Marlowe. came
for the body Another brother resides
at Bloomington, Ill.
Honesty is the best policy" ac-
cording to an old maxim, but that
such really is the case Mary Mack a
maid employed at the Brunswick
hotel, is inclined to doubt. After find
ing and returning to the owner $500
worth of diamonds Miss Mack was
rewarded with one lone silver dollar.
For several days Mr.. and Mrs Berg
stein of New York have been guests
at the Brunswick but as they found
they would be detained in the city for
some time, owing to a case which is
soon to be tried in the courts of Hen
nepin county, they decided Friday to
leave the hotel and take lodgings with
a private family. Friday afternoon
they paid their bill at the desk and
left the hotel. Shortly afterwards
upon making up the room, Mary Mack
a domestic, found four handsome dia-
mond rings lying on the dresser in the
room occupied by Mr.. and Mrs. Berg
stein. Although the temptation was
great. Miss Mack at once reported her
find to the housekeeper, and sealed
the rings up in an envelope, that they
might be ready for the owner. When
Mr. Bergstein recovered his property
he was so delighted that he handed
the maid silver dollar in recognition
of her honesty.

said: 1.-The first of these conventions
I ever attended was back in '92 or '93
when l was q member Of the city
council. The convention that yea,
was held in Evansville, Ind, and was
somewhat broader in it's scope thar
the recent one. The city of Mime.
apolis sent a large delegation from the
city council, Chamber of Commerce
and Business Mems Union-some II
in all. Since that time, am sorr,
to say. local interest seems to have
been on the wane. At least until re.
Gently. For while the representation
from the Twin Cities, and especial,
from Minneapolis, at the convention
was not as large as it should have
been. it was certainly very energetic
and active. On the whole the conven.
tion was one of the most successful
in the annals of this movement. The
sentiment is strong and growing tina
a safe, sure and ample channel for al
stages of water should be established
in the Mississippi from Minnea polls tt

should be prosecuted with a view t.
having such channel ready for us.
