This conundrum is one that every member

An Exciting Game B-tween Two Experts

New YORK Nov. 22.-Sextou, ex-champion,

Each was cheercd as he made his appearance.
Sexton won the lead and took the white ball,
but failed to count. Schsefer then ran II, and
Sexton replied with 4. It soon became mani
fest that the men were nervous and apparently
afraid of each other. On the third inning
Sexton sent the balls flying around the table
several times, and, getting them we'll together,
ran 81 points by very fine play. On the fourth
inning Schaefer made clever run of 25 On
the sixth inning Sexton made run OF and
slipped upon simple follow shot, leaving an
opening for Schaefer, who failed to

ninth inning, missed an easy masse. At the
close OF the tenth inning the game stood; Sex

played poorly. In the fifteenth, sixteenth aud
seventeenth innings Schaefer no better. The
spectators whistled In surprise at the poor
inning stood: Sexton, 1872; Schaefer, 17S.
Schaefer, nervous, played wildly, and failed to
| make any large runs. On the twenty-sixth in
ming Sexton got the balls we'll grouped in the
centre of the table, and moving them under
the rail scored ~ points. The excitement was
intense, and Schaefer only scored one. Sexton
made IA more, which made him 299 and he ran
the game out on the twenty-eighth inning

HOsU to Build a Cat4y.
(S,. Gland T;mooI

The Minneapolis Tribune says that there
exists in st. Paul an association of the solid
business men, which is constantly and unit
edly working for the interest of St. Paul.
Its work is carried on quietly. effectively,
and for the most part secretly. The Tribune
mentions number of the achievements of
this association, such as securing the termi-
nus of the Northern Pacific, at a moment
when Minneapolis thought it her own; the
St. Paul & Sioux City shops; the recent ex-
tension and acquisition of the St. Paul &
Sioux City road, which places it
among the most powerful corpora
tions in the country, and the organization of
the new Lumber line, which will make St.
Paul great lumber distributing point. The
Minneapolis organ admits that St. Paul has
made "herself the railroad center and head
quarters of the Northwestern region, adj
vises the business men of Minneapolis to
awaken from their lethargy, initiate their st.
Paul neighbors, and go to work for the well
fare OF their city. This is good advice, and
it is not only applicable to Minneapolis, but
to st. Cloud and other like points. We have
advantages here, both present and pros
pective, which might be stimulated and made
productive by united effort on the part Of
our business men. Awake. arouse your
selves and 60 to work.

Among the passengers on the up-bound
train, on the Valley road, on Thursday last,
was well-dressed lady, who was, as she
claimed, Sin search of her step-daughter. -
When near Sank Centre she made inquiries
of other passer gers as to parties named
Pangburn-grand-parents of the eirl-to
whom her daughter. ID years of age,
nao gone year ago on visit.
She said that she had written several letters
and had also sent packages by express to her
daughter, but had failed to receive any reply
to either. She claimed that she had learned
through other parties that the grand parents
intended to keep the girl, but she
was ''going to have her if she had
to take legal action in the matter.'' That
night she stopped at the Sank Centre house.
and on Friday morning learned that the girl
was attending school near her grand parents
farm, three miles from the Centre. About 8
O'Clock she procured carriage and driver
and started out with business in her eve. In
about an hour she was back at Sank Centre
with the girl, books and slate under her arm.
| having found her on her way to school.
She told the girl she could stay with her
grand parents if she chose, but the girl
seemed delighted to go with her stepmother.
At 10 o'clock the two took the down train
fo1 st. Paul, which place the lady claimed az
her home. It needed but one look into be,
face to read what was passing through he,

isut He Wakes Up to Find That He Hasn't

Yesterday morning Christian Bowers, q
discharged soldier, in charge of Sergeant
Wilson, OF company I, Seventh infantry.
came to police headquarters to enquire about
sum of money which Bowers claims was
taken franz him under peculiar circum-
stances IN this city some time ago.
Bowers has been O. member of company
Fl, Fifth infantry, for the last ten
years. He arrived in St. Paul from Fort
keogh on Nov. 9th with his discharge ma
pers and final statements, and put 10 at the
st. Paul house, at 142 Fort street, kent bv
Charles Faber.
On the following day he had his final
statements cashed at the Second National
bank, and received 1923, of which sum he
took Sl23 III money and certificate of de-
poslt for the balance. After returning to
the st. Paul house he placed the certificate
IN MIR. Faber's hands for safe keeping. and
commenced drunken debauch which lasted
until the evening of Nov. 18th. At that

Between and 10 o'clock last night the
Milwaukee & St. Paul train dispatcher
telegraph Office at st. Paul received the fol-
lowing message:
PENNINGTON, Nov. 90.
To Mayor of St. Paul:
We are all on fire. The town will all 90 IN.
less We have help.
(Signed) CRY AUTHORITIES.
The message was telephoned to the CITY
hall but for some unacco1ntable reason was
not sent to Mayor Dawson, or to any one in
authority.
Fortunately this strange omission to de-
liver the message did not do any harm, as a
similar call was made upon Minneapolis, and
the Milwaukee & St. Paul company
could supply transportation from that
oity better than from St. Panl. A
special train with an engine and hose
in charge of Chief Bracket left Minneapolis
at II P. N. to go to the rescue.
What the result was is unknown at this
writing, 3 a. NJ, When the operator at Far
mington sent the call for aid at $500 P. NJ.
he said the depot would be burned next,
and that as it was already "red hot'
IN his vicinity he was going
to leave. IS no further communication can
be secured With Pennington it is supposed
that the depot, including the telegraph
office, was burned. From the tenor of the
operators message the inference is that the
nre originated in the town and was swept
10y the wind, which was blowing a gale, to
the depot.
Pennington is town of eight to ten hun
dred inhabitants, situated on level prairie
about twentythree miles from st. Paul. It
IS on the iowa and Minnesota division of
the Milwaukee & st. Paul road,
aud also the point of junction of
the Hastings & Dakota road with that line
The principal business street extends to
the depot and railroad property, and it is
quite probable that the chief portion of the
town is destroyed. its location is on a
''windy PRAIRIE" and last night thsre was
almost gale blowing.
THE LATEST,
The depot is reported to have been de-
stroyed at 1880 P. M, and as the Minneap-
oils relief train could not have arrived until
after midnight, it is probable that the flames
did all the destruction which the direction of
the wind would permit.

fered by the proprietor. In fact Mr.. Pfeifer

erous hospitality. In this way Pfeifer's hall
will be thrown open and formally dedicated
to public use. And the public will frequent
~ avail themselves of the commodious con-
veniences put at their disposal by the new
hall. It is one rejecting credit upon the city,
and in all its appointments is excellentIy
adapted for the purposes for which it was
and stage, to be furnished with
of the hall, and opposite gallery is located.
As adjuncts to the hall, there is a commodi-
GUS dining room, kitchen, dressing and cloak
rooms, with one especially devoted to re-
freshments. The seating capacity is esti-
mated at $500, and the acoustic properties
are all that may be desirable. The rooms
are neatly and appropriately ornamented,
we'll lighted by bracket jets and chandeliers,
making the hall in all respects without an
equal in the State. The ventilation is all
that could be desired, and the means of
egress are excellent. Taken, as a whole,
Pfeifer's hall is convenience long wanted
in this city, and is now supplied
in all particulars. This inadequate
description is given to prevent too great a
surprise to the evenings guests, by tt Or
