Civil VS.. Military Authority.

Early yesterday morning Officer Cook
tackled part of the United States army.
After rushing retreat the army was cap
tured and safely put in quarters at the sta
ton. About 6:3O o'clock the officer discov-
cred Corporal Charles Waters, Company 81,
Seventh infantry, making a Gatling gun of
himself in the rapidity with which he was
discharging stones against the st. Louis sa-
loon on Jackson street. The officer appear
ing, the soldier took to his heels, and sought
safety in the Wild Hunters tavern. The
officer followed fast on his footsteps; the SOL
der was sore pressed. He thought OF the
loss of his chevrons, the court-martial for
being absent without leave, etc. He
saw a hole in the roof, any
part in storm, 80 he slipped
through. The officer squeezed through, and
captured his man sitting on the comb of the
roof. Later in the day the soldier was ar
raigned in the municipal court, and was
fined $40. 1t was too long after pay day
for him to have any money, SO he was sent
over to the Jail to do civil service on the
rock pile fol- fourteen days.

A Republican Child that Will Be Still

A Republican Child that Will Be Stillborn
And they are going to do it. Going to
try to defeat the expressed wishes of the
people, Shy large majority" in the last
election. So anxious are some of the de-
feated candidates for Office, even against the
vote of the qualified voters of Ramsey coun-
ty, they contemplate contesting the
election. A conspiracy to that effect
has been jointly entered into by Acker and
Passavant. Messrs. II. J. Horn and w. H.
Sanborn are employed to fix up the legal
aspect of the assault upon the American
citizens citadel, the ballot box. Under a
statutory provision of this State, it set forth
that when body has no law suit of his
own, he can come in as an
adjunct in somebody else's business. Under
this clause, j. Ham Davidson has joined the
coterie to GUST, if they can, but they can't,
the legally elected officers of the people.
Yesterday they were up at the capitol library
consulting authorities, wherewith
they could incontinentally ssset
down. on the Democratic head
Irregular Democratic Ticket used at the
last election. From the tones overhauled
they got little consolation. The 46 Califor-
MIA was against them, and Indiana authori-
ties made their theories perfect sleeves, and
Illinois books were silent for a
precedent. The proposed contest is
based on the assumption that the
use of the words Irregular Democrat Tick
et'' on the ballots violation of the follow
ing clause of the election law:
Sec. 6. = No ballot shall be used or
voted at any election containing any cut or de
vice on its face, any cut or device or any
written or printed matter on the back, or in
any other way made to distinguish one ballot
from another.
In addition to the above phase of mooted
contest, ex-Alderman Fisher, the defeated
Barden's henchman, has been for days en-
gagged at the city hall going over the election
returns. He is diligently digging away at
names and figures, and does an all days
work, more than demanded by the eight
hour law. How much does no get? What
are the whole gang going to get? 1t is love- s
labor lost.

The Work Progressing at SnaiPs Pace.
At the meeting of the bridge commission
ers yesterday morning there were present
Messrs. Lindeke, Knapheider, Cochran and
the chairman, Mayor Dawson. Engineer
Sewal was also present
A resolution was passed authorizing the
secretary, Mr.. Cochran, to employ help to fix
up his minutes.
The engineers little bill for the month of
October was presented and allowed, as fol
lows: Mr.. Gano, $3.50; Corke, rodman, $50:
Grace, rodman, $40; johnson, rodman, $40;
Gano, expenses, 5000; Grace, inspector,
$3.50; Sewall, 800; ferry and stamps, $1.36;
total, $577.66.
The following bills were also allowed:
Pioneer Press Co., $26.25; Fl. M. Smyth,
printing, $40; horse hire for I. Cochran, So.
Mr.. Dawson remarked that the expenses
we're creeping up more than he had thought
they would.
Mr.. Cochran said he would furnish state
ment at the naxt meeting of the amount al
ready expended.
MIR. Dawson thought that the commission
should give notice to property owners of the
action Of the board in condemning the land
necessary for the approaches to the bridge.
AS there was no immediate hurry, the matter
was laid over till the return of the county
attorney from his important trip to New AL
bany.
Mr.. Sewall stated to the board that the
pump was still employed on the hole for the
foundation of pier No. l, at an expense of
500 per day. This, he said, was through
the neglect of the contractors, who ought to
have commenced laying stone last week.
Mr.. Knapheider said the contractor was
waiting to know if he was to put in concrete
Or masonry.
Mr.. Dawson thought the engineer should
peremptorily notify the contractor that he
must commence the work on pier No. 1
or the pump would be removed. This sug-
gestion was formed into resolution in
structing the engineer to notify Mr.. O'Brien.
Mr.. Sewell wanted to know if it would not
be as we'll to notify Mr.. McIntire. The
chairman explained that the board had to do
only with Mr.. O'Brien, and it was ultimately
decided that the notice be sent open through
Mr.. McIntire to Mr.. O'Brien.
In reply to Mr.. Dawson, the engineer said
the contractors had brought down more
granite, and have had small number of
men recruiting it.
The board then adjourned.

Action of the Board of Education Upon the
Death of Secretary Manson.
A special meeting of the board Of educa-
ton was called last evening, for the purpose
of taking some action regarding the death of
A. G. Manson. late secretary of the board.
There were present Inspectors Benz, Cullen,
Donnelly, Dufresne, Hagan, McCardy
Whitney, and the president, DR.. Murphy.
Mr.. McCardy acted as secretary. Inspector
Benz moved that the board, in body, attend
the funeral of the late secretary, A. G. Man
son, Esq, on Wednesday next.
The motion was carried unanimously.
On motion of Inspector Benz, it was re-
solved to close the public schools on Wednes-
day next, as a mark Of respect to the late
secretary.
Inspector Donnelly moved that the mayor,
aldermen and city officers be asked 10 attend
the funeral. The motion was carried.
Inspector Donnelly moved that COM
mittee of three, with the superintendent, be
appointed by the chair to frame fitting reso-
lutions of coincidence and publish them in
the official paper, to drape the Offices of the
board in mourning for thirty days, and ar
range for the board to attend the funeral.
SssDr. Murphy appointed Inspectors Dom
nelly, Benz and Hagan.
Mr.. Benz said that the amount OF bust
ness to be accomplished rendered it necessa-
~ to have some one act as secretary to the
board until such time as q secretary should
be elected. He would propose that Mr.. Nc
Cardy be appointed to act pro tenn. Mr..
Scheffer seconded the motion, and it was
carried.
The president informed the board that the
funeral would take place from the residence
of deceased at 2 o'clock on Wednesday.
From the house the corpse would be taken to

Deceased was Mason, but the widow and
friends desired quiet funeral, and declined

Metropolitan stables. 10 secure himself,
he took chattel mortgage on four horses.
Not long ago he returned to this city with a

Last Saturday afternoon Mr.. John A..
Bazille, residing at No. 27S Wabashaw street,
was made costly present. It was baby,
and didn't come to cheer his household, nor
in the usual way. At the time the youngster
made his advent Gt was bouncing boy) Mr..
Bazille was at work in the back yard; his
wife was temporarily absent from home. He
heard carriage drive up to his door, but re-
ceiving no notice from the door bell, sup
posed it had not, after all, stopped at his
residence. He wus further confirmed in this
belief by seeing it speedily drive away.
Shortly afterwards he heard child CRY; he
went after the sound, and found it coming
out of the we'll inflated lungs of week-old
infant deposited in his front room. The
youngster was costly stored away in basket,
and beside him was bundle of clothing.
Only this and nothing more. Not word Of
pedigree. And it's wise child who knows
it's OWN father.
