COUNCIL ADOPTED
COMMITTEE'S
REPORT
On Proposition of Erecting
Fire Hall Daring the Pres
ent Year.
Recommending that the council
purchase the lot adjoining the city
hall on the north and erect on the
rear of the two lots a substantial two
story brick fire station, the public im
provement committee went .before the
city council last evening- The recom
mendation of the committee was ac
cepted. and the purchase is to be
made.
Architect Ross was present and
presented preliminary sketches of the
proposed building, which were ex
amined and considered at some length
and approved with some minor sug
gested changes. The walls of the old
fire hall will be razed and the brick
used in the erection of the new build
ing. The architect was instructed to
prepare plans and specifications and
submit them to the council for appro
val. The proposed 'building will be
44x43 in size and will be faced with
pressed brick. Its cost 4s estimated
at about $5,000.
Saloon licenses were granted to
Einil Peterson. Maurice Sullivan, Ed
Lodgard. St. Lawrence Bros., A. P.
Praser and Harry Harm. This brings
the total number of saloon licenses
granted up to forty-three, with two
more applications yet to be acted on.
The city recorder was notified to
turn all unpaid light bills over to the
city attorney for collection, and the
delinquents will have to "walk up to
the captain's office and settle." or the
city will know the reason why.
An invitation from the U. C. T.
committee asking the city officials to
participate in the parade during the
grand council was accepted.
A number of reports were received
from city officials. Among them the
report of the tresaurer for the month
of April shows receipts from licenses
of $20,370 municipal court fines, etc.,
$30S light collections, $4,077: sewer

mailing them out to the many appli
cants. The lands which will be open
ed in the Crookston district are in the
southeast corner of Roseau county
and in the northwest corner of Bel
trami. They are very valuable lands
and the fact that they can be secured
for the mere living on them and by
paying $1.25 per acre for them is at
tracting the attention of people from
all over the United States.

Many People Unwittingly
Break the Law in Sending
of Mail.
People in this vicinity who have a
habit of violating, whether unwit
tingly or otherwise—the 'postal laws
of the United States government, had
better right themselves on the reg
ulations, as the inspectors are begin
ning a crusade and arrests in Min
nesota are being made daily.
The offenders are mostly those, who
enclose brief notes in newspapers or
matter on which fourth-class postage
is paid. It seems it is customary for
the offenders to write "Please send
premium No. X," or similar notes
when enclosing tobacco tags, clipped
trade marks, etc. Even a short note
like that makes the matter liable for
letter postage. The only writing per
missible in matter of the fourth class
is the name ot the sender and the
address of the party to whom the ar
ticles are sent. Any matter in the
nature of correspondence, whether
written with pen and ink or type*
writer, renders the. package liable for
letter postage, which is two cents an
ounce.
Inspector Mullen has made several
arrests in Minnesota lately, where he
found the violations not wilful ones
and the cases were settled by pay
ment of the minimum fee of $10. As
the inspector is provided with all the
evidence in advance, he has no option
except to collect the fine, or, in case
of refusal to pay, to take steps for
the guilty party's arrest. This in
formation is generally obtained at the
delvering office.
WHElfPiiYSiGIJIN
IS tup
CLERK
Ruling By Internal Revenue
Man Which Requires Doc
tors to Get License.
Physicians who prescribe straight
whisky or other undiluted liquors to
their patients and fill the prescription
themselves are liquor dealers. This
is what John W. Yerkes. commission
er of internal revenue, has ruled on
the subject and to make the fact more
impressive he had ordered that every
physician so prescribing and furnish
ing liquors to his patients must pay
the regular federal liquor dealer's tax
of $25 a year.
Hereafter the physician who stimu
lates his patient from his private flask
is a liquor dealer. What Mr. Yerkes
says in regard to the liquor traffic
goes unless reversed by the United
States supreme court. If. however,
the doctor is wise he can dodge the
tax by mingling some drug with the
•booze. If this is done the concoction
becomes medicine and the doctor
ceases to,be a purveyor of alcoholic
beverages. But he mustn't call it a
cocktail. There's another ruling that
would get him on that.
The text of Mr. Yerkes' ruling,
which was received at the Minneapo
lis internal revenue office yesterday,
is as follows:
'A physician cannot prescribe, and
furnish to his patient, alcohol or whis
ky, or any other alcoholic liquor not
compounded into a medicine with
drugs or medicinal substances, with
out involving himself in special-tax
liability under the internal revenue
laws, even though he thus sells such
liquor for use as medicine only."
A "GUM SHOE" SENATOR.
Senator Nelson W. Aid rich of Rhode
Island, the chief and leader of the tar
iff "stand patters" in the national leg
islature, will go to Europe to investi
gate the result of the Dlngley rates
on the foreign trade. He has engaged
passage on a liner sailing from New
York tomorrow and will spend two
or thTee months in England and var
ious continental countries in the hope
of securing ammunition to be used on
the revisionists when the tariff ques
tion again comes up for consideration.
Whatever may be thought of his
ideas on the tariff problem—and they
represent those of the majority of the
citizens of the tight little manufact
uring state he represents—Senator
Aldrich is admittedly a great power
in the senate. He plays for the most
part a thinking role in the afCairs of
the senate. A man of few words, he
seldom speaks, but when he does he
is given close attention by the other
republican senators. While other sen
ators are spouting florid oratory. Aid
rich, by methods which might be term
ed "gum shoe" but which are almost
uniformly successful, is gathering in
the votes. Admittedly representing the
great manufacturing Interests of the
New England states, Aldrich is yet
one of the supreme potentates of the
senate and the revisionists will find
in him their greatest and ablest foe.

For Her Brother's Sake.
The next attraction at the Metro
politan, on May 23, matinee and night,
will toe the new comedy, "BVr Her
Brother's Sake," an elaborate scenic
production, is carried to more truth
fully portray In detail the situations
and climaxes of the interesting story
therein told.
Edward Grant, a wealthy man, goes
to South Africa tQ engage in diamond
mining, leaving his daughter Emma
in the care of William Cosgrove. He
also leaves a will, which, at his death,
provides handsomely for Cosgrove
and gives the 'balance to his daugh
ter. In South Africa Grant meets his
son, who/ran away from home ten
years previous. A reconciliation takes
place and Grant makes a new will,
dividing his estate between son and
daughter. He is soon after stricken
with fever atid dies. Cosgrove, in the
meantime, tries to persuade Emma
to become his wife, planning to gain
possession of the Grant fortune. She
does not love him and refuses. Al
this time toe learns of the death of
the elder Grant,'of the new will and
the home-epming of the son. He
plans, with Gabriel Kneedman, to rob
young Grant of his identification pa
pers, force him to abandon his claim
and then, toy establishing the first will
and compelling Emma to marry him,
gain his end.
On James Grant's ^return he Is set
upon by Cosgrbve and his confederate,
robbed of his papers and Imprisoned
in a private asylum. He is promised
his release only upon one condition,
that he relinquish his name and all
claim to his fatner's estate. Failing
to bring young Grant to such an
agreement, Cosgrove informs Rmim,
who has been unable to gain trace
of her brother, that -James is impris
oned and to save him she must be
come his wife immediately.
As a last resort she consents to
sacrifice herself "For her brother's
sake," and is only prevented from do
ing so by the timely escape of Grant,
effected by "Bonnie," a foundling
whom Emma had given a home.
During the action of the play nu
merous specialties are given and the
comedy of "Bonnie" and "Thatch" is
excrutiatingly funny. The manage
ment has carefully selected a cast in
every way fitted to get the best re
sults and It is safe to say that "For
Her Brother's Sake" will toe the most
interesting drama of the season.
Boselle Knott.
The public's appreciation ot high
class dramatic offerings has again
toeen demonstrated by the remarkable
success of Roselle Knott, the well
known actress, who is touring the
west in her new play, "Altce-Sit-by
the-Fire," by J. M. Barrie, author of
'"Peter Pan," "The Little Minister"
and numerous other successes, and
which ran for one year at the Criter
ion theatre, New York. The play is
exceedingly interesting and brims
over with excellent comedy and, at
times, becomes quite dramatic The
company associated with Miss Knott
is one of exceptional excellence, in
cluding Mr. Eric Blind, Mr. Robin
son Newbold, Miss Grace Gibbons and
others of New York reputation. The
production is the same which marked
its initial performance in New York,
and will be given in its entirety at
the Metropolitan theatre on Saturday
next.
Savoy Family Theatre.
This past week the performance at
the "Savoy* has -been most auspicious
ly attended. Sid Baxter and Charley
Harris having attracted large crowds,
apd the pictures and music being ex
ceptionally good.
For the coming week the manage
ment promises
4
an exceptionally
strong bill. Among new features will
be Hank and Lottie Whitcomb, a
celebrated' team of clever comedians,
and Dracula in a new sensational act.
The Whitcomtts wiilll 'present the
same act which has caused them to be
well known figures on the vaudeville
stage, a rural comedy entitled VTwo
in a Barnyard." It is a very humor
ous sketch and -gives Mr. Whitcomb
an opportunity to bring in his various
animal initaitions very cleverly ren
dered.
Dracula is a European Novelty Ar
tist and is unexcelled- by any. He car
ries an extensive list of scenery and
costume, and the effects produced
throughout Ms act are entirely new.
His impersonations of' Mephlsto fol
lowed by rapid transformations, word
sounds, lightening, etc., are all In
spiring.
His amazing exhibitions, oontortion
al feats, are exceptional. Besides
these features, the Savoy will present
new pictures, songs and music.
RIFLED SAFE OF CONTENTS.
Men Wanted In Alexandria, Minn.,
Taken Through Grand Forks
Snnday.
Sheriff Lundgren, of Alexandria,
Minn., was in Grand Forks Sunday,
aboard the Oriental limited, eas^
bound, being enroute home from Mi
not, at which city he took charge of
John Weber. John Weber, as was an
nounced in the Evening Times sev
eral days ago. was arrested in Mlnot
and held for the Minnesota oflHcial.
The prisoner was in Grand EYrks a
day before his arrest and purchased
a ticket from this city to Spokane.
However, on his arricval at Minot,

of the safe.
CONCESSIONS TO OIL MEN.
Associated Preaa to The Emlag Tlatea.
Washington, May 21.—The com
plaint of the National Petroleum as
sociation against the Chicago, Mil
waukee & St. Paul, the Pennsylvania,
the Ann Afbor and other railroads,
alleging unreasonable and discrim
inating rates on petroleum and its
products, came up for hearing today
before the Interstate Commerce com
mission.
The National Petroleum association
is an independent oil company and
it alleges discrimination in favor of
the Standard. In anticipation of the
hearing today the railroads a week or
so ago announced a big concession to
the independent oil men, especially
on the rate for the return of empty
tank cars 'from the Pacific coast. The
readjustment of rates means that the
Standard Oil company will no longer
enjoy an exclusive rate from central
freight and trunk lines association
territories to the western coast.
Children may be superstitious in
other respects, but they can see no
hoodo in Friday, as it ends the school
week.
