Health Officer Luther M. Powers had

corps in all OF the nine wards of Los

The medical and sanitary inspectors,
nine and eighteen respectively, are in
structed to report to the health office on
Thursday night, while the assistant in
spectors (rat catchers) and laborers must
report Thursday morning for assignment
The sanitary force will use new meth
cd of exterminating rats, as traps are
scarce and will hardly suffice for the
down town section. About 1900 are needed
and only 300 can be bought. A mixture
Of cornmeal. sugar and plaster of paris
will be spread literally in all rat haunts
The plaster will make the rodents thirsty
and when they drink water the mixture
will harden and clog the interiors of the
rats and mice. killing them.
Freedom from danger Of the mixture is
one of the features that commend it to
the department.
HousehoIders Active
Already many househoders have tele-
phoned the city hall that they have
cleaned their premises, have burned up
the rubbish and are awaiting the call of
the rubbish wagons, which will haul away
the non-combustible stuff.
All of the inspectors will be supplied
with gummed labels to be attached on
every garbage receptacle which is not of
metal with tight-fitting cap or top.
Empty lard cars with cover and the reg
ulation garbage cans are the only legal
receptacles.

planned that the banging and rough usage

GRANTS A DIVORCE
Judge Cowan Gives Decree to I'm.
HAPPILY Welded Spouse

Monday Morning Judge
Cowan convened the adjourn
ed June term of court.
The Judge granted a di-
vorce to George F. Nash from
his wife, Ida M. Nash. The de-
cree was granted by default, the
defendant failing to put in an
appearance. It is understood
that the action for divorce was
taken on the grounds of unfaith-
fulness, though as there was no
trial the particulars cannot be
fully learned. It seems that the
couple were married four years
ago, and their married life has
not been a happy one, by reason
of the cause as before stated.
Court adjourned until August
10th, when several cases will be
tried. 1t has not been announc-
ed whether or not a grand jury
will be procured for this term.

Successfully Carried Out

The third and last week of the
summer school which has been
held in the school building in the
city, closed Friday afternoon.
The summer session is regarded
as having been a thoroughly
successful and instructive one
by those in charge. Eighty
seven teachers from the counties
Of Ramsey and Pierce have been
in observation-disclosures the
first two weeks, which number
was augmented by thirty addi-
tional pedagogues during the
last week. The institute has
been addressed by some very
/ able educators and others from
outside the city having the well
: fare of the scholar and teacher
thoroughly at heart. All of the
students in attendance have gone
! to the summer school session for
work, and the instructors be-
lieve that desirable results have
been accomplished for this rea-
son.
The additional teachers which
have come to the institute for
the third weeks course are as

It is understood that North

there came very near being one

about $45 in bills. Chase was

A Wild CHASE
To the Reservation Satur.
day by Sheriff Betford
IN AUTOMOBILE AFTER AN INDIAN
Supposed to Have Wood Alcohol:
MAY. be Dead Indian

Sheriff Belford had a wild and
woody chase last Saturday even
ing in an. automobile. The sher-
if was tring to overtake an In.
dian and chased him clear down
to the reservation before this
was accomplished.
It seems that States Attorney
Serumgard's Office door was
rudely burst open by an Indian
named Mossochominie, who in
formed the startled gentleman
on the inside that his brother
had procured a half pint bottle
of wood alcohol and started
south" with it. A stranger, he
said, had given it to the Indian.
The sherif's Office was at once
communicated. with, with the
above result. On reaching the
reservation, Mr.. Belford found
the Indian considerably under
the influence of liberal potations,
but, upon searching him, moth
ing could be found of the wood
alcohol. AS this drink is almost
deadly poison if taken in any
quantity at all, the man must
have either lost the bottle or else
there is a dead Indian at the res
ervation.
A man named Harrington was
suspected with having furnished
the half pint to the red man, and
hewas accordingly arrested, but
as the charge could not be prov
en-, he was later released. #

ONE HOURS time
Given a Suspicious Looking Coon
to Leave Town

A black, hurley negro was
brought before Judge DuellTues-
day morning, and given one hour
to leave town. AS he apparently
had no money, it is presumed
that he procured a tie pass. Any,
how, he is not here now.
It seems for the past two
weeks the coon had been loafng
around the city, having no visi-
BILE means of support, but always
managing to procure enough
money to satisfy his undying ap-
elite and thirst for bad whiskey.
This tended to keep him in a JOY
full and optimistic state of mind,
which state is rather indigenous
to the colored race at best.
Last Friday, Chief Hurst, who
had become tired of seeing the
dusky Ethiopian wandering
about the streets in a mudlin
state, told him that he would
have either to procure work or
leave town. This the fellow
promised to do. However, dur
ing the two succeeding days, Sat-
urday and Sunday, he was at his
old stamping grounds and in the
same condition. He was admon-
ished again Sunday evening to
procure work and said that he
would start in at manual labor
the following day.
But on Monday it was simply
a repetition of the preceding
days, and patience ceased to be
! a virtue and the chief took him
~ 1':~"nco vile. The coon put up
!. "ng light when the Of
ficer attempted to arrest him,
'objeeted most strenuously in a
=, physical way. However, he was
at length overpoWered, and plac-
ed in the hold-over. Ii

of being a suspicious character
and a vagrant, and may have
