$4,000 FOR SONS Death
STUDENT LOST LIFE WHILE HE
WAS IN BATHING USING AN
ELECTRIC VIBRATOR

St. Cloud Times QD: Attorney Hubert
Hansen of st. Cloud has been awarded a
Judgment in the sum of $1,000 for the
death of his son, John H. Hansen. at
Creighton college, South Omaha, Neb.
This is the announcement conveyed in
the last number of the Creighton COur-
Ter, small newspaper printed by the
college students.
The announcement of the Judgment is
brief. 1t states that the amount was
awarded the father John H. Hansen
was a student in the college of law at
the institution.
According to the Information given out
at the time he lost his life at the college
last winter, while taking bath he used
an electric vibrator. Although there was
not usually a heavy current of electricity
IN the wire it is presumed that it was
either due to an excess or the fact that
he was in the water at the time and
the further fact that his heart was weak
and was unable to stand shock
Whether or not a suit was ever brought
in the matter was not stated in the pa
per but it states that judgment was
given.

Brown, Falk. johnson, John, I.aFon

Broadway West were granted permits
to construct cement sidewalks in front
of their residences.
City Treasurer Vertin's second quar-
terly report was read and was referred
to the finance committee for inspection
A petition from residents along Fourth
street southwest, where a new cement
walk was recently constructed, asking
that certain property owners along said
street be compelled to put in curbs, was
laid on the table. City Attorney Cam
eron stated that the curb could not le-
gally be ordered in now as it was strick-
en- out of the original order.
n. N. Bergheim, chairman of the elec-
trio light rate committee, informed the
council that the committee had expected
to be ready to report that evening, but
that another meeting would be necessary
and therefore the report probably would
not be ready until the next meeting of
the council.
Il. G. Gordon of the Water Power COM
pany stated that it was his intention,
had the light rate report been presented
at this meeting. to ask the council to
give the proposed Water Power COM
panys franchise extension its first read
ing, and it could then be brought up for
discussion at future meetings. However,
as the light rate committee was not
ready to report he said he preferred to
have it left until after such report is
made. so that the new schedule of rates
could be incorporated in the proposed
franchise, if so desired. He said he was
willing to wait until the next meeting.

and Third avenue northeast was grant
ed. 1t was pointed out that this light
is badly needed. This is the first street
light that the council has ordered in
stalled for three years.
Alderman Brown of the building COM
mittee reported that he had investigated
the matter of the construction Of con-
crete underground coal bin for the city
library and that he estimated it would
cost about $24O for a concrete bin 1SX1S
feet and feet deep. A bin this size
would hold about twenty tons of coal, he
said. The space in the library basement
is very limited and in order to get the
benefit Of the cheaper price on coal it
must be purchased by the carload, which
quantity there is not room for in the
basement. Some of the aldermen said
that they believed the total cost of such
bin. including the cost of advertising
for bids. etc, would exceed $500 and they
said they believed this amount could be
expended to better advantage. Upon
motion by Alderman Farrow the matter
was laid on the table. 4
