The Southern Minnesota Optical asso
ciation, at its quarterly meeting yester
day, changed its name to the Northwest

had been some conflict also with the state
association which meets in a few days
at Lakefield The next meeting will be
held In St Paul fair week in September
Professor Grainger made an earnest
plea for greater co-operation between the
occullst and the optician, saying that
their interests were identical He urged
the board of examiners to do all in its
power to rout the horde of optical im

His Plans for a Weddjug Last Even

ft*
One of the High Contracting Parties
Had Been Divorced Too
" Recently. ?
The wedding bells shall not ring to
night
It was the stern voice of law that spoke,
and as the blighting frost falls upon bud
ding nature, so these inexorable words
fell upon the immediate hopes and plans
of Peter Henry Ulrlch and Fannie Ell
Flora Van Bonn, visitors at the marriage
license counter of the court clerk's office
yesterday afternoon
Wedding preparations Tiad been made,
guests invited, a minister secured, all was
ready for a June wedding The prospec
tive bridegfbom urged the bride to be
pleaded tearfully, Hymen wapt, but all
unmoved Clerk Switzer read the law to
the lovers, the two disconsolate ones
turned away crestfallen and there was no
wedding at 2121 Crystal Lake avenue
last night
The two young people above mentioned
joined the merry throng of happiness
seekers lined up at the marriage license
counter late yesterday afternoon When
their turn arrived the would-be husband,
a well-dressed and intelligent-looking
young man, signed the register AS directd
His fair partner stood by looking on
"Have you ever been married'" asked
the clerk
' Yes ' was the laconic reply, as the
seeker glanced nervously at the lady.
' Where is your wife?"
' Divorced '
"How long ago?" " * ' *
"Last January "
"What time in January?"
Thereupon the applicant or second pa
pers produced a document, the copy of a
divorce decree Issued at Detroit, Mich,
Jan 27 Clerk Switzer examined the same
thoughtfully and announced, that if those
figures wera correct he could issue no
license, as six months had not elapsed
since the granting of Mr Ulrich s di\ orce
An argument arose, and the joung man
stated that he had beeninformed that if
the divorce was granted in another state,
it was not necessary to wait six months
The clerk forthwith produced the statutes
and read therefrom to the discomfiture
of the eager voung couple
"Why, we have simply got to be mar
ried to-night," volunteered the lady, With
tears in her voice 'Everything is ar
ranged the minister engaged, and there
is no way out o it'
"I am sorry, madame," dispassionately
replied the clerk ' I would like to help
you, but you see what the law is "
"Well, the six months will be up in a
few days and I shouldn t thmk they
would make any difference Won't you
please give us the license Anyway the
lawyer told us It was all right '
' I can't do J&." - *-*****
The fair pleader was crushed for a mo
ment Then a smal lighted up her pleas
ant features and leaning over the counter
she said in a most winning way
' Can t you issue us a license and let us
get married to-night and then after the
27th of the month we will come and get
another and be married over again'"
"The clerk smiled broadly but replied,
"No, I am afraid not There is no way I
can help you out "
And the two disappointed lovers slowly
left the office

Reports coming from the flooded sec

half of the sufferers Mayor Haynes has
issued an appeal In response to calls from
Armourdale arid on the strength Of tele
graphic advices showing the cohditldn at

subscription the Carnival association has
again come to the front with an offer to
contribute to the relief fund 25 per cent
of the total gate receipts to the Industrial
street for the remainder of the fair. The
mayor has issued a formal appeal for
funds, calling attention to this offer of the
carnival association Regarding the
situation, Mayor Haynes said in an inter
view
"I do sincerely trust that the people
of Minneapolis will do their share In this
matter I am afraid that our people do
not sufficiently realize the terrible suffer
ing that this flood has brought to thou
sands of people We have sent only
$2,000 from here so far Minneapolis
should be able to do much better than
that, and I am confident that it will
The recent advices from St Louis aroused
me, and I tried to evolve some plan
which, would bring in money immediately
Assistance is needed now, and a hundred
dollars this week may mean more than a
thousand next month "
President Theodore Hays believes that
the fund percentage will amount to per
haps $2 000, or even more If the weather

* *3 of the Four Burglaries. .
t%ww Charged.
Law Providing for Secret Arraign
ment of Children Is Put
i Into Practice. ^
James Dermidy, who, with Joe Henclr,
is believed to have all other boy burglars
bound and gagged, was arraigned before
Judge Elliott this morning Four Indict
ments, all charging burglary in the third
degree, were read and to each the young
ttiah pleaded guilty The places entered
by the youth are given as follows 217
Second avenue S, 98 Western avenue, 3
First street N and 210 Third street S.
The cases are all continued over the

at $3,000.
Hencir, the alleged partner of Dermidy

turned state's evidence and is said to
have laid the whole scheme of the boy s
widespread operations before the in
qulslitors Judge Elliott this morning
held him to appear before the September
grand jury under $600 bond and- this will
probably be furnished.
For the first time in the district court
the new law relative to the secret ar

youth, indicted with Charles Askelund
for burglary in the third and grand lar
ceny in the second degree, watt arraigned

the public was excluded The youth
pleaded guilty to the grand larceny charge

ner, also pleaded guilty to grand larceny
and was sentenced to the reformatory.
Their crime was committed at 1634 Wav

Unpfecedentedly high water in the Mis
sissippi river might cause damage to the
Minneapolis waterworks* tho the authorI
ties do not believe that this city will ever
be cut off rom water and left in total
darkness, p.s some of the cities of the
southwest have been recently
The Camden Place pumping station has
tjteen put out of commission by water, but
that was when a main broke and filled the
low land on which the station stands,
flooding the boaler and engine-rooms and
putting out the fires In the furnaces The
pumphouse there Is protected from the
river by a levee which is wide enough for
a driveway Often the stage of water in
the river has been higher than the fur
nace fires, but the water has been kept
out by the dikes
The river has been known to attain a
level even with the levee103 feet, and
should the Mississippi river break records,
it would overflow the dike and drown out
the pumping station
By next summer, however, the new
Northeast pumping station across the
river will be at work, and this Is In much
better shape The level of the grounds
Is 108 feet and the boiler-room floor one
foot higher While the flood level Is esti
mated at 105 feet, it has ne\er been known
to exceed 103 feet The boilers are thus
six feet above the highest known water
mark, and the authorities have no fear
for this pumping station, even if the
Camden Place upmps should be drowned
Should there at any time be serious ap
prehension for the safety of the new
pumps, it would be comparatively easy to
throw up a three or four foot dike
Furthermore, the Mississippi river at
this point is a corcparatively small stream
and has not many feeders above the falls
That it will go On a rampage is extremely
unlikely.

SHERIFPSSTAFFPROTESIS Grand Jury Strictures on Tax Col
lection Methods Said to
Be Unjust.
As a result of the grand jury's final
report published in yesterday's Journal,
there is not the pleasantest feeling Im
aginable in the sheriff's office The re
port made some severe strictures upon
Hennepin sheriffs, who, it Intimated, had
without exception been grossly negligent
in the matter of collecting personal prop
erty taxes Sheriff Dreger has been en
deavoring to work a reform in this re
spect and his failure to secure results last
year was due to the action of the court
Itself.
There were some extremely busy grand
juries last spring and summer, ajid the
court was In session upon Important cases
thruout the entire term As a result, the
sheriff's force was kept hustling upon court
work and the personal property tax col
lection, which usually occupies the duU
weeks of summer, went by default
The sheriff requested the court to ap
point six additional deputies to look after
this collection, but this was refused This
year the force has been permanently en
larged by the addition of four men, and as
Chief Deputy Jones informed the grand
jury investigators last week, It is the
expectation that personal property taxes
will be collected this season and that lev
ies Will be made upon the property of de
linquents.
"When I stated these facts to the grand
jurOrs recently," said Mr Jones this
morning, "they assured me that that was
aU they wanted and that Sheriff Dreger
was the only sheriff Who was going after
this collection business properly Natur
ally We were astonished to read the crit
icism In the report. ,
"Since that document was made public
I have taken up the raatteT with three
prominent members of the grand jury and
they have assured me that they had no
idea that our office was to be so sharply
criticized, nor did they believe that such
criticism "was Just W e expect to make
that personal tax collection and are doing
It, and In view of that fact, it seems to
me that criticisms are, to say the least,
in poor taste "
