RESENTMENT EXPRESSED AT FU-
NERAL OF GIRL RECENTLY
MURDERED.
HAVE SHIELDED CRIMINALS
Wrongdoers Declared to Have Been
Saved from Consequences of
Crime Because They Wore
Uniforms.

New York.-A feeling of resentment
among the people against the police
force, growing out of the recent con-
viction of Brooklyn policeman of bur-
glary and the arrest recently of Po-
liceman David Shellard, on charge Of
murder, was manifested at the funeral
of Barbara Rieg. the victim OF the
Irving Square park murder.
An immense crowd stood in the
street in front of the home of the
receiving family for two hours preced-
ing the funeral, and in the comment
on the crime there was a strong un-
dertone of condemnation for the po-
lice system which attempts to shield
criminal because he wears a uni
form
Because of the rain, Capt Gallagher
of the Stagg street station supposed
that the crowd of curiosity seekers
which the funeral might attract would
be small. He sent tour men to keep
order around the receiving home, in
suucting them to guard the funeral
cortege from the house to ST. Nicho-
las Roman Catholic church, in Devoe
street.
The four policemen detailed to the
task soon found it beyond their ca
pacity, for fully 5000 persons, regard
less of the downpour, thronged the
neighborhood and stormed the doors
of the house.
Capt. Gallagher sent six additional
men ~ the scene Eroys, tho windows

was enacted is law-abiding, and the

Vandalism

1t will be somewhat unhealthy
for anyone caught tampering with
the fire alarm system. Of late con-
siderable trouble has been created
by someone unknown who has in
dustriously plugged the keys and
also broken them off in the locks Of
the alarm boxes. This has hap
pened on several occasions, foul
and five at time being put out Of
commission. Of all the 1ow-lived
disgraceful tricks, this is the rotten.
est and liable to cost dearly. A
careful watch is being kept and
anyone caught tampering with the
alarm boxes will be summarily
dealt with. Keep away from the
boxes and touch them only in case
of fire.

Mesaba Continued

c. R. Lieth, professor of geology
in the University of Wisconsin,
who some years ago made an ex-
tensive study of the iron formations
of the United States and Canada
for the United States government,
and who is considered one of the
authorities of the world on that
subject, states that the drillings
have confirmed the belief expressed
by himself and others some years
ago that the Guyana range, as it is
now known, is an extention of
the Mesaba range, geologically
speaking. There is this difference,
however, while ON the Mesaba
range the iron strata lies level and
continuous, or nearly so, on the
Guyana they are inclined, broken
and COnVOluted. When asked as
to the reported finds in Otter Tai
County he said he had made no in
vestigations in the matter and had
no information by which to judge,
When asked as to the commercial
future of the Cuyuna range he stat
ed that it was certain to become g
productive district, the only ques,
ton being that of time. The ore
found so far was of a low grade,
he stated, and no spectacular devel-
opment was to be expected. He
was certain however, that it would
be eventually used and proftably
mined.

The Indian School

DR.. T. F. Rodwell, of Tower,
superintendent of the Indian school
on Vermilion lake, was in Duluth
and while there spoke to a reporter
as follows:
THE Indians of the Nett lake
reservation, said DR.. Rodwell,
have never sent their children to
this school in numbers. For some
reason they have objected to so do
ing. 1 have heard that they do not
approve of the location of the build
ing, and that they complained that
it was too distant from their own
places of residence. However that
may be, the Indians have promised
me that they will send their child
rem to the school in greater numbers
the coming year.
If the Indians have any pref
udice against this school cannot
believe that it is we'll founded, for
the location is ideal. There is no
Indian school in the country that
has such a charming location, and
it remarkable healthy one.
The enrolment at the school
the past year, which is my first
year in charge, showed an increase
of 40 per cent over the preceding
year, so that 1 felt much encour-
aged. The building is to receive
some improvements. 1t is to be
reprinted for one thing"
