M E KTS DEATH WHILE
BATHING
EFFORTS MADE TO RESCUE HIM
pouts Were Quickly Manned, but
Body Was Not Recovered
Until Life Was
Extinct.
Elmo McElroy, 3324 Clinton avenue
south, Minneapolis, was seized with ap
poplexy while bathing in White Bear
lake last evening, and was drowned be
fore assistance could reach him. Mc-
Kiroy had been in the water for some
time, ai considerable part of which he
Bptnt on the toboggan slide.
McElroy left the slide and wnile in the
water about 200 yards from the bath
house suddenly threw up his arms and
tv» nt down without coming to the sur
face again. Several people saw him, but
at first were not alarmed. When the
man failed to reappear boats were quick
ly rowed to the spot where he went
down.
A heroic attempt to recover the body
■was made by a man named Drake, who
Jumped Into the water without waiting:
to disrobe, and William Boeringer, the
1< :al optician.
About twenty minutes after McEl
roy went under, his lifeless body was
taken from the water and every effort
to resuscitate him made without avail.

HARVEST HANDS HELD TJP.
Kansas I-'arnu-rs Impress Laborer*
From Santa Pc Train.
BURLINGAME, Kan., June £6.—Driven
to desperation by sight of their rich
fields being ruined for want of harvest
ers, a party of twenty Osage county
farmers held up a west bound Santa Fo
train last night to obtain the help neces
sary for reaping their grain. No. 55 was
pulling out of Peterson, a small town
a few miles south of here, when four
husky, heavily armed farmers entered
the engine cab ani ordered the engineer
to stop at a certain crossing a mile
south of that place. At the same time
others pointed revolvers at th« conduc
tor amd brakemen and when the train
stopped compelled them to cut loose
from the two emigrant cars containing
harvest hands bound for the Western
fields.
The engineer was compelled to move
the fore part of the train on down the
track, where it was held. Meantime
there was a> fierce conflict going on be
tween the farmers and the harvesters,
who resented the vigorous measures tak
en by the would-be employers.
Clubs, ballast, shotguns and revolvers
were brought into play, and for half an
hour the battle raged fiercely. Finally,
however, after several of each party had
been severely injured, a compromise
was affected by several persons not en
gaged in the conflict, and the 200 har
vesters agreed to work in Osage county
at $3.50 a day.
The two cars were soon emptied, the
harvesters going across the prairie gxiid
ed by the • farmers. The train was re
coupled and backed up to Burlingame.

BOARD OF CATION DECIDE NOT
TO MAKE IT GRADE
SCHOOL
LIST OF TEACHERS APPOINTED
Complete Staffs Provided for All
tlie High Schools — Very
Few Changes Are
Made.
By a bare majority the board of educa
tion decided last evening to permit the
high school branch of the Cleveland
school to remain, a resolution by In
spector Waite, providing for its discon
tinuance, being lost by a vote of 3 to 4.
Inspectors Waite, Bassford and E. O.
Zimmerman voting In favor of it, and
Egan, Fry, Savard and B. Zimmermann
against. The lists of high school teacn
ers appointed therefore included a corps
for the Cleveland branch.
When the meeting opened Robert
Brownson was the on'y member present
of the citizens' committee, appointed to
lay before the board the protest of the
residents of the First and Second wards
against the removal of the Cleveland
high school. He stated that as he lived
In the Second ward, and the school prop
erly belonged to the First and as he
had no children of high school age, he
did not feel that he could fittingly rep
rtsont the district or even the commiUee
of which he was a member, although he
was deeply interested in having the
Cleveland high school maintained. He
hoped the board would defer action until
more of the committee could be present.
The board, after determining that no
appointments of high school teachers
could be made until the Cleveland ques
tion had been determined one way or the
other, showed its disposition to be fair
in the matter and its desire to hear
what the committee had to say by send
ing telephone messages to all of the
committtemen who coald be reached in
I that manner. After a wait ot some du
| ration, B. S. Osgood, also from the
I Second ward, arrived, and later Dr. R.
O. Earl and E. A. Koen.
Mr. Koen, who was the first membw of
the committee to be heard, was some
what severely called to account by In
spector Waite for criticism of Mr.
Waite's action in the Cleveland tchool
matter, which he had published In a
weekly paper of which he is the editor.
I Mr. Koen stated that the committee had
come to lty before the board petitions
representing the combined "wisdom and
foresight" of the First ward.
Mr. Koen explained that the people of
the Cleveland district h?ld Mr. Waite
responsible from the fact that he, being
a resident of the First ward himself, was
expected to look after t.ha interests of
that section of the ci y in the hoard, and
furthermore because he was said to have
been chiefly active in bringing about the
action of the board Looking toward tht
removal of the school. Mr. Koen fur
ther said that the alumni of the Cleve
land high school had taken the proposed
abolition of their alma mater deeply to
heart and had unanimously signed a pe
tition for the abandonment of that plan.
Another petition to the same effect was
signed by all taut three ot the pupils of
the grammar and lower grades of the
Cleveland, in whose interest it had been
said that the high school department of
the school was to be removed.
Dr. F. O. Earl, a physician of the First
ward and a member of the committee,
made an earnest argument for the re
tention of the high school.
In spite of the argu.nents of the mem
bers of the committee, Inspector Waite
still held to the opinion that the best
interests of the city, and particularly the
constituency of the Cleveland school, de
manded that the room formerly devoted
tc the high school should be given to
the younger children. In keeping with
that i>iea he introduced a resolution pro
viding for the discontinuance of the
Cleveland high school branch, with the
provise that the pupils should be trans
ferred to any of the other schools that
they should prefer. The resolution was
lost as stated.

GOOD BREAKFASTS.
Start the Day Rig-lit.
The breakfast is perhaps the most Im
portant meal of the day. Europeans
usually eat a very light breakfast.
Many Americans have stomach trouble
because they eat too much or food of not
the right sort for the morning meal. An
ideal breakfast Is a baked apple or some
other fruit, a dish of Grape-Nuts Food
with a little cream, and a cup of Postum
Food Coffee.
Leave off all meat, hot biscuits, etc.
Grape-Nuts and Postum both furnish the
phosphate of potash together with other
food elements that go to make up brain
and nerve centers, as well as muscle and
tissue, and both can be digested by the
stomach of an infant.
It Is the part of wisdom nowadays to
use food especially selected for nourish
ment and that can be easily digested.
Ten days' trial of this breakfast and you
will feel as though you had "cleaned
house."
The exhilaration of bounding health is
worth a hundred times the small outlay
of time and care in arranging such a
breakfast.
Mrs. Riley, 125 Chestnut street, Cam
den, N. J., says she formerly breakfasted
on chops, hot biscuits and coffee. "After
such a meal I would have severe pains
and they would last sometimes far Into
the night." She finally determined on a
change in her diet and had for breaK
fast only Grape-Nuts Food and a little
cream with Postum Food Coffee. She
says: "In a very few days the intestinal
trouble all disappeared. I have regained
my old-time weight, lost the irritability
and nervousness, and life takes on a new
aspect.
"When I feel a little exhausted in the>
day I Bimply drop everything and stir
a spoonful of Grape-Nfs in a little
cream or hot milk, ani in ten minutes
I have regained my vigor and fresh
ness,"
Grape-Nuts Food Ja best when served
just as it comes from the package with
out any cooking whatever. The food has
already been cooked ten or twelve hours
in the process of man v fact v ring it.
When made up into puddings, pies and
other desserts it does not hurt it to be
cooked again, but when served simply
as a breakfast food It should never be
cooked. On the contrary, Postum Coffee
absolutely must be boiled fifteen or twen
ty minutes before the food value and
flavor can be brought out.
I TELL YOU, SIR!
nesses have left the state, there was but
small chance of a conviction;
Hass Open-ed "Wrong: Letter.
Frederick H. Hass, a youth of sixteen,
was arraigned before United States Com
missioner Spencer yesterday on the
charge of opening a letter addressed to
J. D. Kelly. Hass, who was employed

pleaded guilty, and he was held to await
the action of the federal grand jury. H:s
bail was fixed at $500, in default of which
he was committed.
Action to Quiet Title.
Judge Bunn yesterday heard testimony
in the case of Lucretia M. Pomeroy
against the City of St. Paul, in which ac
tion is brought to quiet the title of
property located at the junction of Uni
versity avenue and Jackson street.
Lemke Must Pay Wife $250.
The jury in the case of the state against
John Lemke, who was charged by Lizzie
Leith with non-support of their child,
returned a verdict of guilty, and he was
ordered to pay the sum of $230, and in
default to stand committed.

RICH FARMER IX TRAMP ROI^E.
Charles Looby, the man. with a ■wood
en leg, who 'has been bound over to the
district court at Omaha for running
amuck in a Farnam street hotel, is one
of the best known characters of central
South Dakota, says the Chicago Intar
Ocean. His occupation, when he was
not wandering around the country in the
guise of a tramn seeing trouble, is-that
of a farmer. He owns several quarter
sections of valuable farm land in San
born county and a large herd of cattle.
He is of a very quarrelsome disposition,
and when his neighbors refuse to quarrel
with him he dons the most tattered suit
of clothing he can procure, and to vary
the monotony of life on the farm, sallies
out into the world In search of excite
ment. He usually sets more than he
bargained for, but this does not deter him
from making his "raids" on the peace
ful communities of South Dakota, lowa
and Nebraska. Looby has repeatedly
been "run in" by the police as a vagTant,
although his ch£ck for thousands of dol
lars would be honored by bank officials
. who are aware that he is the owner of
a large quantity of valuable property.
Last April Looby made one of his
periodical trips, and having made his es
cape from the police at Sioux City, where
he had been arrested as a tramp, he
went to the Nebraska side of the Mis
souri river and worked his way toward
his home in Sanborn county, this state.
While at Hartington, Neb., he called on
Father Loecker, of the local Catholic
church and applied for money to pay
his board bill. In pity for his supposed
poverty and hysioal condition the father
granted his request.
Father Loecker soon afterward noticed
the cripple making his way in the direc
tion of the residence of the sisters who
conduct the Catholic school at Harting
ton. The priest sent a messenger to in-

form the sisters that alms already had
been given to Looby and instructing them
to give him nothing more. The sisters
inadvertently informed Looby of their
reason for refusing his request for
money. The cripple became greately en
raged, and, returning to the house of his
benefactor, made a savage attack on the
priest. He adopted his usual mode of
attack by unbuckling his wooden leg am]
utilizing it as a club while he hop;
about on one foot. SeveTal persons went
to the rescue of the priest and the crip
ple was overpowered and lodged in jail,
but Father Loecker refused to prosecute
him. Since that exploit nothing had been
heard of Looby until his attack the other
day on the employes and guests of the
Omaha hotel. _
BABY SPOILED THE FtJiX.
Detroit Free Press.
After the mother of the wife came on
to visit the young couple who have mad')
a good start in Detroit she soon detected
an undue amount of depression in the
domestic atmosphere. Like man/ an
other mother-in-law she has a good head
and a good heart, but their combined in
spiration and observation failed to en
lighten her.
Direct Inquiry of her daughter brought
out the fact that they had been deserted
by the young folks who were their con
stant visitors and entertainers.
"They used to make excuses to come
here and enjoy an evening with us," said
the young wife, "but now they scarcely
ever put in an appearance, and when
they do It Is only for the briefest of
formal calls. I can't think of a thing we
have done to offend them."
The mother did a lot of quiet think
ing and finally suggested that her daugh
ter issue invitations for an evening ptrty.
The guests came. Promptly the little
baby of the house was given the cen
ter of the stage. Every woman had to
talk baby talk and every man had to^pat
the cheeks or solicit the hands of the
youngster.
Then all others had to be silent whila
the father and mother took turns in tell
ing how smart the baby had been and
what cute antics It had gone through.
Following this the little chap was put
through his paces, waving his hands
making a bow, saying "Papa" and "Mam
ma," pushing a chair and trying to swil
low a watch. There was no chance for
the visitors to talk over the current
events of the day, gossip, flirt or ask
questions.
Then it was that the grandmother seiz
ed the baby, announced that it must al
ways be in bed at 7 o'clock hereafter,
hoped to see all the young people again,
bade them good night and retired with
the little monopolist.
A few ventured in as scouts for the
next night or two, their reports were sat
isfactory and now the old-time joyous
ness has returned to the house.
