FORMER MINNEAPOLIS
MAN KILLED IN MINE
Harry A. Kennedy, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Donald Kennedy, of 2o04 Tourth
avenue S, Minneapolis, and one of the
best-known mining engineers in the
country, was instantly crushed to death
vestexday, 1.200 feet under the sur
face, in the Pittsmount mine at Butte,
Mont. Death came withouot warning, a
large mass of rock crushing Kennedy's
chest and body and breaking his neck.
Superintendent James O'Neill of the
Pittsmount company and anqther engi
neer stood on the spot where Kennedy
was killed only a few seconds before
the cave-in ^occurred, and thev had
hardly stepped out of their tracks to
permit Kennedy to take their place,
when he was buried beneath the mass
of rock.
Mr. Kennedy was formerly in busi
ness in Minneapolis and he and hi: wife
had planned to leave in several days
for Minneapolis to attend the golden
wedding anniversary of his parents.
Jap.. 11 Kennedy had taken out a $10,-
000 accident insurance policy, whic,h
was found on his bodv. A peculiar
feature in connection with his death
was Mrs. Kennedy's premonition that
something was wrong with him. When
the little group of miners rang the bell
at her home she hvsterically asked if
her husband was killed.
Mr. Kennedy was a prominent Ma
son, Shriner and Knight Templar. For
several years he conducted the Ken
nedy Furniture company in Butte, but
two years ago he turned his attention
toTnining, -joining the Pittsmount com
pany six or eight months ago. He was
35 years old and he and his wife had
one child, a boy 4 years old.
The remains will be brought to Min
neapolis by Mrs. Kennedy.

A Remarkably Strong Story.
"Queen of the South," by Marvin
Dana, an-d illustrated by George Yarian,
is a love story of an altogether unique
and interesting type, which will appear
in The Journal's Sunday Magazine. The
tale had its inception on one of those
adventurous Antarctic exploration trips
possibly Nordenskjold's. Months in
the fearful solitude of the ice pack had
worked the inevitable result. All were
wretched and hateful to themselves and
to one another. Supersensitive, every
nerve Strained and ready to flare into
wrath on the slightest word or action.
The "boy," on'e of the number, found
in the bottom of his trunk the colored
supplement of a Sunday newspaper, one
side of which was covered with pictures
of ten girls. To vary the monotony of
their lives he devised a lottery. They
were to discard two of the least likely
girl portraits, and the remaining eight
were to be drawn as sweethearts'' oy
the eight members of the party. Mor
ton, the zoologist, drew that of Isabel
Langham, who, according to the paper,
had recently won much attention for
her playing of a small part in Quo
Vadis. In the dreary monotony of life
in the frozen Antarctic, Morton fell as
completely in love with the picture as
he could have fallen were she constant
ly before him in propter person. On
his return* to civilization he sought in
every way to find trace of Isabel Lang
ham, convinced as he was that she was
the only woman in the world he could
ever love, but it was not until he
attended a fashionable ball in London
that* Morton saw the living counterpart
of his picture, but to his dismay she
was not Isabel Langham, but Laura
Dearborn, a daughter or a wealthy
American. Notwithstanding his plighted
troth to the picture of Isabel Langham,
Morton fell head over heels in love with
Laura Dearborn, and the singular man
n'er in which he later discovered that hi
had twice fallen in love with the same
woman is the remarkable denouement
of Mr. Dana's story.

MAJGRITY TJSES-
IN ITS TEETH%
J.f& ItVi
i&*
Patterson's incandescent gas lighting
contract furnished another interesting
and significant skirmish at the c*ty
council meeting last evening. Patter
son won hands down and had nineteen
votes on every sort of a proposition
presented. The outcome leads the op
position to the conviction that any time
an effort is made to pass the contract
over a veto by the mayor it will be
successful.
Alderman E. C. Chatfleld started the
trouble by a resolution to employ the
Minneapolis General Electric company,
the Minneapolis Gas Light company and
the Patterson Street Lighting compa
ny to light the streets pending the de
termination of the appeal made by the
Patterson company from the decree that
the council must award contracts by
formal resolution. The resolution re
cites in detail the events leading to
the mandamus proceedings to compel
Mayor D. Jones to sign the contract,
and is to be in effect only ten days af
ter the determination of the appeal by
the supreme court. The rate of com
pensation, based on the last bids of
the three companies, is fixed as follows:
For electric arc lights, 25.76 cento per
lamp per day for gas, 95 cents per
thousand cubic feet for incandescent
lighting, 3.36 cents per lamp per day.
Alderman Wendell Hertig opposed
the resolution as well as he could with
the overwhelming odds against him.
He first tried to have the resolution di
vided so that each contract could be
voted upon separately, calling attention
to the fact that inasmuch as there was
no controversy over the gas and electric
contracts, which the mayor was willing
to sign when presented to him in proper
form, these two matters should be
disposed of and gotten out of the way.
To couple them with the Patterson con
tract was to cause an unnecessary com
plication.
Oinch for Patterson Company.
Alderman Frank H. t!astner declared
that if the resolution passed, the Pat
terson company would attain the end it
desired and there would be no occa
sion for pushing the appeal, which could
easily hang fire for the remainder of
the year.
The arguments were unavailing, tor
the motion to separate the question was
lost by a vote of 19 to 5, as follows:
AyeStarkweather, Hertig, Clark,
Castner, Duryea5.
NayGerber, Ryan, Chatfleld, Satter
lee, Nye, Mumm, Holmes, Rand, Nelson,
Vauffhan, McLaskey, i Walker, Anqulst,
Westphal, Petterson, Bow, Bhle, Van
Nest, President Merrill19.
AbsentMcCoy, Schoonmaker.
A motion act on the electric con
tract alone was defeated by the same
vote, as was one to consider the gas
contract by itself.
Mr. Hertig then moved that thelcom
pensation of the Patterson company be
fixed at 2.74 cents per lamp per day
and showed that Chicago and Cleveland
were securing incandescent lighting for
one-half the expense of Minneapolis,
while Washington and Baltimore were
securing the same service at less than
three-fourths of the Minneapolis ex
pense. JThis motion was lost, tho Al
derman Petterson supported it.
Alderman Piatt B. Walker moved
that the compensation of the gas com
pany be fixed at 90 centa per thousand
cubic feet and of the electric company
at $60 per lamp per year instead of $94,
but none of the alderman thought that*
he was serious and none seconded sthe
motion.
The last attempt of the minority was
to have the resolution made void after
Mav 1, by which time the case in the
supreme court would be decided if it
was pushed but this was defeated by
the same old vote.
When it came to the final passage of
the Chatfleld resolution, President Mer
rill stated that there was. in his opinion?
no occasion for the resolution until the
companies had presented their bills and
for that reason he voted against the
measure.
It is assumed that Mayor Jones will
veto the resolution, but if the Vote of
last night is any criterion the council
can easily override the veto.
Alderman W. W. Ehle made hard
effort to prevent the establishment tpf
a lumberyard at Lake street and Twen
ty-seventh avenue 8, which he said was
the most important section of the
twelfth ward, "btft was unsuccessful.
Pettersen Ordinance Passed.
Alderman Pettersen's express ordi
nance was passed with some minor
amendments. It requires all express
men and transfer companies to make
daily reports to the license inspector
on special blanks supplied by that of
ftciai ofall removal of household effects
from one part of the city to another.
I is worded to include the transfer of
trunks when accompanying a change of
residence and the removal of goods to
storage warehouses. It does not. how
ever, include the conveyance of trunks
of transient visitors in the city. The
penalty for the violation of the new
ordinance is a fine not exceeding $23
and imprisonment not exceeding five
days in the workhouse.
The appointments of Fire Chief J. E.
Canterbury for the year were confirmed.
The only changes of note are the pro
motion of Lieutenant Fred Howard to
be captain of truck No. 1, succeeding
the late Captain John Berwin, who was
killed at the West hotel fire, and the
promotion of Truckman Peter Colman
to be lieutenant.
Wire Inspector Named.
City Engineer Andrew Einker an
nounced the appointment of George T.
Raymond to be outside electric wire in
spector and the appointment was con-*
firmed. MV. Raymond stood next be
low C. W. Arrick in the list submitted
by the board of examiners.
"According to the compromise effected
by the'joint committee on ways and
means and taxes, the $100:000 in the re
volving fund was appropriated in equal
parts tor the payment of rebates on
excess special assessments and for per
manent improvements. Alderman
Ehle, supported by Alderman John
Rvan, urged that the entire $100,000 be
devoted to the liquidation of claims for
rebates.. He argued that the claims
were just, many of them had been due
for several years and it was unworthy
of the city to withhold the taxpayers'
money.
Alderman E, W. Clark gave notice of
the introduction of an ordinance amend
ing the ordinance regulating the instal
lation and operation of electric wires,
apparatus and plants.
Instructions were given to the proper
city officers to advertise for bids for
sewer an*d paving supplies for 1906.
A rebate on the liquor license held by
the late Charles O. Bader for the Palls
hotel was allowed. The amount is
$520.60. This rebate does not conflict
with the decision of the district court,
holding the. payment of rebates on
liquor licenses illegal as there is a pro
vision in the statutes for rebates in
event of the death of the holder.

Colonel Piatt Beauregard Walker, a
resident of Minneapolis for many
years, died about 4 p.m. yesterday at

Mr. Walker's health had failed rapidly
since the death of his wife, about two
months ago.
He leaves a brother, T. B. Walker, of
Minneapolis a 'sister, Mrs. A. B. Bob
bins, of Robbinsdale, and the following
children, J. C. Walker and Piatt Wal

The funeral will be held under Scot
tish rite Masonic auspices Tuesday at
2 p.m. from the rooms on the fourth

All friends are invited.
Born In Ohio,
Colonel Walker was* born in Xenia,
Ohio, seventy-three vears ago. When
he was 14 years old his father started
for the gold diggings with an organi
zation formed on the co-operative plan.
The party started west over the plains.
In Nebraska the father died and in
search for the grave in the west Col
onel Walker laid the foundation for
the magnificent physique which later
marked nim as one of the stalwart pio
neers of Minnesota.

Colonel Walker had been injured at
a fire in an early day and his declin
ing health suggested the tonic of Min
nesota pine woods air. He came north
penniless, and opened a cobbler shop and
store on Main street SE. Later he as-'
sbciated with T. B. Walker in govern
ment survey work. He accepted an
alluring offer from W. H. C. Folsom of
Taylor's Falls to go into business. Fol
lowing the panic and a fire he practiced
law and later took up the management
of the weekly paper there.
Founded the Lumberman.
In 1870 Colonel Walker returned to
Minneapolis, where he founded the Mis
sissippi Valley Lumberman that year.
He continued editor and proprietor until
1887, when he sold out. In 1893 Piatt
Walker. Jr., obtained control of the pam
per and Mr. Walker again renewed re
lations with it, retaining his interest
until 1897.
For eight years Colonel Walker had
devoted most of his time to recreation.
He retained his home' at 726 First av
enue N? but spent his summers at
Lake Minnetonka and his winters in
Scranton. He was an inveterate fisher
man and one of the most successful
that ever cast a line into Lake Minne
tonka. Last summer he missed his lake
outing for the first time in twonty
years.
Colonel Walker was very active in
Masonry, and was-a charter member of
Darius commandery. He had the un
usual honor of receiving degrees frpm
four to tbirty-two from the Tate Albert
Pike. During his illness some member
of the Scottish Rite in Scranton has
been constantly at his bedside.
LINDEN HILLS IS AGAIN
YISITED BY BUBGLABS
H. E Cobb's residence, at 4027 Sheri
dan avenue, in the Linden Hills dis~
trict, was ransacked from top to bot
tom last evening by burglars, who ob
tained only some small change for their
trouble.
"Mr. and Mrs. Cobb went away for
the evening and on their return they
stumbled over a bundle of clothes neaT
the front door. Later they found that
the house had been thoroly searched by
the burglars and that they had intend
ed taking the clothes but were prob
ably frightened.
The robbers obtained about $2 in
smaE change. Several robberies have
been reported in that district recently
and a special policeman may be detailed
there.

I make my rounds some fool rooster in
a quiet corner will see the faint glow

then they'll all turn loose. Then the
fool geese in the basement will hear the

State Day at the Show.
Today was state day at the show and
Governor John A. Johnson and mem
bers of the executive family came over
from St. Paul on a special car.
Several members of the party were
greatly interested in a hen detective
shown by A. T. Cleland of Minneapo
lis. The device is what is known to
poultrymen as a trapnest. When Mrs.
Hen goes in to her workbench the
weight on the floor of the nest shuts a
small door in the front and throws a
spring lock. In this way the detective
captures the hens that lay the eggs
and the owner can, by watching the
nests, make a record of each hen's
work. It also enables b|m to weed out
the star boarders, who never miss a
meal or lay an egg. By the use of a
little button the catch device is turned
off and the nest becomes merely a quiet
little private boudoir for Mrs. Hen.
Mr. Cleland has the distinction of be
ing the oldest exhibitor at the show*
Tho 80 years of age, he is one ofr the
most active and enthusiastic poultry
men in the city.
The exhibition will continue* until
Jan. 31. The rooms will be open to
morrow, both in the daytime and even
ing. Last evening the visiting and
local members of the association were
entertained at dinner by the Commer
cial club, 115 guests partaking of the
club's hospitality. There were short
addresses by prominent poultry
fanciers.
FOR NEW MEMBERS
Wesley Church Is Scene of Enjoyable
Social Gathering.
About 200 of the 236 who have been
received into Wesley church since the
beginning of Dr. Guild's pastorate gath
ered into the church parlors last eve
ning to be welcomed by the older mem
bers and to get acquainted. This re
markable increase of 31 per cent in
membership since last Easter is very
gratifying. Last evening several per
sons not yet members, impressed by the
cordial spirit and good fellowship, gave
their names to the pastor.
President Cavan of the Epworth
league presided over the brief and in
teresting program. There were songs
by Mrs. C. W. Brown, Mr. Jones, Pro
fessor Patten and Miss Williams, and
addresses by G. W. Shute, J. H. Mar
tin and Dr. Guild. Miss Lutine Per
kins recited.
An especial feature was the presence
of a host of young people.
Experience Dear
Is Sometimes
Teacher.
So many parents of young children
do not realize the danger from croup
until they have had the experience or
one severe case in their own home. To
be awakened in the middle of the night by
the peculiar rough cough and find their
little one suffering from a fully devel
oped attack of the croup and nothing
in the house with which to relieve it is
a lesson never to be forgotten. A good
remedy at hand is of incalculable value
in a time like this, and nothing better
can he obtained than Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. It has been thoroly
tested in hundreds of cases, and not.
only Cures croup, but when given as
soon as the first symptoms appear, it
will prevent the attack. The fact that
this remedy contains no narcotics makes
it perfectly safe to give to the children.
