M. Thursday. Smith, who was arrested shortly after midnight, has confessed to shooting Stegner and also Patrolman William Borden, was who was not seriously wounded.* Smith was arrested by Detectives John McGowan, Edward Hughes and Paul Meyers at "Steve's" rooming house, 319 East Seventh" street at 1:30 A. M. He had taken off his clothes and was in bed when the desecured tectives found him, but he had his re loaded with fresh cartridges under the covers. He made no re sistance, however, and was taken to Central station where yesterday morning he signed a confession for Chief Sommer detailing the entire affair. Three Women, Four Men Held Three women, one of them white, and four men are being held at Cen tral station as material witnesses. Smith, who also is known as Wil liam Johns, told police that he had "given one of the woman some money and that she left the shack. He said he found her with another colored man, nearby and when he demanded his monev back, she screamed. Neighbors hearing the disturbance called the police. Patrolman Borden, knowing the shack was a "tough hangout" asked Ducas station to send some assistance, then started for the scene of the brawl. He threw open the shack door, yelled "stick them up," and WAS greeted bv a volley of shots. One bullet struck him in the chest and he fell. Stegner Mortally Wounded Stegner had just come up at this time. Stepping over Borden's body he attempted to enter the shack, but he also was greeted with a volley of pistol shots, and fell beside his fel low officer, mortally wounded. A riot squad was then sent to the shack, but the inmates had fled through another door and the re serves found only the two wounded officers. Both were taken to the City hosnital, where Stegner died at 3:30 A. M.. after an operation lasting more than an hour. He had been shot-an the abdomen. The bullet which struck Borden hit a rib and was deflected around his body, making a long, ugly surface wound, but not penetrating a vital organ. The shock of the bullet fired at close range, striking his body, caused temporary numbness and par alysis of the upper part of the body. After the shooting Smith told Chief Sommer that he went to his home at 170 Eatin street, then to Curlev Campbell's place on Wabasha near Fourth street. He then went to Seventh and Wabasha streets and! boarded a street car, getting off near the rooming house where he was ar rested. Said He Killed Two Cops His confession omitted a visit to the home of William Wilson, a col ored officer and friend of Smith who lives at 149 Chicago avenue. Police learned that he visited the Wilson home, and in the presence of Mrs. Wilson and Dave Brodky, a student, extracted six empty shells from his pistol and reloaded it, saying: "I've just killed two cops and I'm leav- Smith was not the only person armed or using firearms. Police also are holding another colored man who is reported to. have shot a half dozen times, at nothing in particular, ap parently just to be in on the shoot ing party. Funeral arrangements for Stegner have not been completed, but mem bers of the police force will act as pallbearers and as many police and firemen as can be off duty at the time will attend the services. Praised by Chief Sommer Stegner was born in St. Paul 27 years ago. He became a member of the police department in April, 1919, and has Jheen one of the besfc^ntotor cycle officers on the force since, ac cording to Chief Sommer. Stegner is Survived by his widow, a bride of three weeks, his mother, Mrs. Anna L. Stegner, 1600 Laurel avenue, a brother, W. E. Stegner of Albert Lea, and a sister, Mrs. John Smith of Alaska. He also is sur vived by a 6-year-old daughter, Dor othy, bv a former marriage. You Needed It Then You Need It Now That government life insurance, to which only veterans of the World War are eligible, is the best and cheapest protection, is generally con ceded. Insurance companies do not compete for the veterans' business and almost without exception are whole-heartedly co-operating with the government in advising the boys of opportunities open to them as a result of their war service. Listen to what $he secretary of one of the largest life insurance companies in the world says of Government War Term Insurance: "Of course life insurance companies cannot grant insurance at less than cost, but the government offers in surance to the soldiers at less than it would cost the government to grant that insurance. (That is because the government bears all expenses of management, etc.) The government is justified in this liberality in con sideration of the fact that these vet erans have risked their lives, or have .been willing^ to risk their lives for low rate charged." 'T"K The* .company made the above statement has in structed all of its agents to refuse to take applications from ex-service men until they have taken the full amount of government insurance to which they are entitled. The U. S. Veterans' Bureau is handling the in surance business for the federal gov ernment. HOW TO REMOVE SOOT Large numbers of shingle roof and defective flue fires are being report ed, due to the increasing use of soft coal. The accumulations of soot on heating surfaces reduce the value of the fuel, and frequently clog the flues and start fires. The Federal Fuel Administration Board suggests the following plan for ^removal of soot: The fire is put into good condition with a substantial body of -hot fuel. Common salt, thoroughly dried, is then thrown or sprinkled onto- the in candescent fuel bed in a quantity de pending entirely on the size of the furnace. In the case of a house heat ing furnace, one pound at a time is ample in the case of a large power plant boiler, four or five scoopsful may be required. The dampers are kept openv so as to maintain the fur nace temperature and the salt is al lowed to remain until the fumes have entirely disappeared. Immediately upon charging the salt, the furnace becomes filled with dense white fumes which may re quire as much as half an hour to en tirely disappear. If results are not on the first application, it should be repeated as many tiroes as necessary. Once the heating surface is thor oughly cleaned a small application everv few davs is usually sufficient to keep it so. Everyone using soft coal is urged bv the administration to use this re markably simple and cheap process frr retting rid of the soot, cleaning and heating surfaces of boilers, thus saving large amounts of coal, pre venting fires from chimneys and gen erally conserving all along the line of heating and the production of power. FROM WITHIN By E. W. Gilles is from A great deal of growth within. This is true intellectually as well as otherwise. Bennv Brooks had the foolish idea that in some way or other the school was going to pour education into him without much effort on his part. We honor "self made" men, but vitally everv man is self made if he is reallv made at all. Vitally it is growth from within, and growth that is worth while means planting and cultivating and then more planting and cultivating and then some more of the same kind. Spiritual growth is from within, enlargement, expansion, development, vitalization, all from within. The securing of a better job andday bigger pay is vitally a matter from within, more education, more devo tion, more abilitv, more reliability, more efficiency.
