Building inspector Condemned Concrete
Barn of Or. Carter, Roof of Which
caved in Last Sunday.

The concrete barn Of DR.. j. e. Carter
near the corner of Fourth street and
First avenue north, the roof OF which
caved in a week ago Sunday. almost
burying one of the men who is employ
ed about the place. has been condemned
by Building Inspector Anders. The
reason given for this by the building
inspector is that all the principles of
concrete construction were ignored In
the erection of the barn, and 1t has
been declared that the roof of the
building would not have held together
had 1t been laid fiat on the ground in
stead of twelve feet in the air. DIR.
Carter has stated to the building in
spector that he will give the contract
for the reconstruction OF the stable to
a competent contractor.
The stable in question is part of the
veterinary hospital conducted by DR..
Carter and has not been built long.
1t was declared unsafe today by the
building inspector on account of II
being built in absolute violation of all
the principles OF concrete construction
as there was no reinforcement OF any
kind.

TioNAL CAPTURE or A BEAR
WHICH WAS ROAMING STREETS

The Minneapolis Journal has the fol-
lowing story OF Frank Regan. who has
at one time chief OF police OF Fargo:
Dragged TO the patrol wagon by De-
tective Frank Regain. who grappled
with him at the corner of Washington
avenue and Tenth avenue south. big
cinnamon bear was thrown in patrol
wagon, taken 70 South Side station and
locked in g cell early today Regain
charged the bear with vagrancy, but
he may change the charge to assault
and battery for the bear resisted arrest
and Regan was compelled 10 land on
the animals chin before he could sub
due him and drag him to q patrol box.
At midnight last night r. r. Jones.
manager of the zoo, Nicollet avenue,
called up police headquarters and re-
ported that the biggest bear in the ZOO
has escaped. He declared he had not
missed the bear until the zoo was clos
ed. Desk Sergeant John Hart, who
knows some press agents. made a rec
ord of the report, but told Mr.. Jones
in all candor that he thought the es
cape Of the bear was not entirely vol
untary.
Scar SHOWS right.
Whatever the truth of Sergeant
Harris theory the bear was at Tenth
and washington avenues south at
1880 a. M, when Regain, on his way
home, passed the corner. Regain says
he doesn't know whether there was
anybody with the bear or not. He
didn't stop to look.
He knew the bear was loose on the
streets, and he knew that bears aren't
supposed to wander the streets of
Minneapolis without attendants Re
gan walked up TO the bear and grab
bed him by the collar. The bear rose
on his hind feet and aimed q blow at
Regain.
Il let him have II in the Jaw" said
Regain. He came back at me and
tore my coat. but / finally got him
with my left. The bear lay down
for a while and then got up After
that It was easy. I dragged him to
a patrol box and called the wagon. He
was all right after that until we
jected to opening his mouth ana / hit
him again"
Whatever the real story OF the
DSdi escape, ne was Enthusiastically
locked up in q cell last night after q
ride in the patrol wagon. Also the
bear had sore jaw and Regain had
torn coat and sprained thumb.
Several prisoners in the south side

in and locked In a cell, took solemn
oath that they wouldn't wait until

tions into effect.
