He then offered the following reso-
luton, which was unanimously adopted
by the conference:
The conference authorizes the
drafting committee to make such
amendments as may be necessary to
have the convention conform to the
covenant of the league of nations in
the character of its membership and
in the method of Adherence
Changes Admit Colonies
I'm pursuance Of this resolution The
following changes were made:
Article l OF your commissions re-
port, together with the first two clauses
of your article 80, together with article
&c.. have been combined as article 3s7
of the treaty to read:
ga permanent organization is bore
by established for the promotion of
the objects set forth in the preamble.
The original members of the league of
nations shall be the original members
of this organization and hereafter
membership of the league of nations
shall carry with it membership in the
said organization.'
AS you doubtless have in mind. the
changes have the effect of giving the
British dominions and colonies sep
aTate representation on the general
conferences. When you give your final
Judgment on the Importance of these
changes, ! earnestly urge you to en-
terrain the following considerations:
Zone, that Borden could not 90
back to the Canadian people, who oc
cupy a position of considerable i'm
portance in the industrial world. and
tell them that they were not entitled
to representation on the General La
Dor Conference at Versailles.

POLICE ARE MYST|F|ED
BRIEF NOTE FROM MILL
CITY HOSPITAL
But Superintendent There Says
Knows No One BY Name of
Ed Jones

Local police are puzzled and in
tcrested in letter which was receiv-
ed this morning from Minneapolis
The iyr is supposedly from one
Ed Jones and was addressed to the
Mc-..ato chef of police. The pen
m~nship was exceedingly poor and
The sentences sprawled over the
pages as though the person writing
could not see to write in a straight
line.
How The Letter Reads.
Dear sir" the letter reads. please
send deputy sheriff here TO get me
out Of the city hospital at Mime
apolis at once. ! am Ed Jones. Ny
sister lives at $40 South Fourth
street, Mankato. Please send at
once.
They have burned my eyes to a
crisp with injecting arsenic into my
veins. Write my family. My dis
charge papers are already made out
but they are holding me for some
thing. Send this to section B 10 get
Winnifred Clark. Miss Swan is head
nurse in section d"
Chief Martin was investigating the
case but had nothing to give out re-
garding the matter today.
Inquiries Made BY Free Press.
Inquiries made by The Free Press
this afternoon at the Minneapolis city
hospital revealed the fact that a
wo1lan by the name of Winniired
Clark, blinded through disease, has
been confined at the hospital since
last May. She stated that she had a
brother in Mankato but beyond this
fact would give out no information
as to where he lived, his name or
other facts concerning him. DR.. II.
A. Britton, superintendent OF the
Minneapolis city hospital, said there
had never been anyone by the name
of Ed Jones confined at the institu-
ton
Whether the woman Winnifred
Clark wrote the above letter in a fit
of mental alteration or whether il
came from other sources is a matter
of conjecture.

The total amount reported at noon

The special matinee which was

success and the amount taken in,

ton Of the committee in charge or
the special showing. The picture,
Miss Bessie Love ia Carolyn OF the

for showing during a drive of this
Kind, and the program OF musical
numbers which was given by the
