chic two years ago. II was not the az
rangcmcnt San Francisco hoped for, nor
will be Of any particular advantage to
California except in furnishing an all
rail route to Portland to those who dis
like sea taavel. The route it was desired
Mr.. Willard should select was the enc
through the northern coast couatias,
which still lack effective communication
with San Francisco bay. The Central
Pacific is pushing north from Redding
and the Oregon and California has al-
ready reached point S.xty-6ve niles
south Of Hoseburg, to whiyh i. is running
its cars. Mr.. Willard in his speech in
Portland, said that the delay vas owing
to the want Of means, which have now
been provided in such abundance as will
enable the road to be completed next
spring and the cars to be running between
San Francisco and Portland the follow
ing June. The Upion Pacific has al
ready come in.sharp competition with
the Northern Pacific in Idaho and Mon
tana, the dispute arising ostensibly from
a desire Of each corporation to control the
Snake river country. The Snake rivel
is stream which rises near the boundary
of Utah, Wyoming and Nevada, ant
flows northward into the upper waters o
the Columbia. The districts, however, ar,
hardly worth fighting over. The trouble
lies deeper, and is really transcoAtiaent
al. TIE Union Pacific, ending in th'
deserts in the middle Of the continent, i
reaching blindly out TO find new copnec
tons that, in the general struggle fo
supremacy, will enable it to survive an,
be profitable to its owners. Could i
reach Oregon it would in time have val
uuable interests in that region. But tn
| Northern Pacific proposes to retain tn
Oregon aud Washington traffic in thei
own hands, aud to dothis they must meet
every competing road before it enters OF
its private domain. For its purposes tht
Snake river country will do as we'll AZ
any other. 1t is the rule which the pra
irie farmer follows when he sets . bach
FIRE. The invader must be stopped be
fore he reaches the boundary. The gaY
between the Utah and Northern, a. it i
called, and the Willard lines, is some 3O(
miles, space which the Union Pacifi'
would not have crossed in years, with it
divided counscls, and which both road
will be sometime in crossing, supposins
the agreement to have been made as sta
ted in the dispatches. The Union Paci
fc is the most unpleasant situated Of al
the transcontinental lines. II seems /,
be unable to either reach Oregon by al
independent route or to find its way ou
of the Utah deserts to the Pacific by
feasible route south of Ogden. It's plal
to build southwark from Salt Lake Git
by route they have for some time con
trollcd and on which some work has bee
done, is not likely to be carried mucl
further in the face Of the plans Of tn
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy.

Street Begging.

At the regular quarterly NEE ting of th
managers of the st. Paul Relief society
held at the Office No. al East Ninth street
the 10th inst. at 8 p. m, the following
minute was adopted by the board and or
dered to be published in the daily papers
The directors of the st. Paul Relief So
ciety would respectfully call the attentio n
of the public to the fact that a good dea
of street begging has begun again, and
that irresponsible and unworthy persons
are soliciting aid at the houses of our
citizens and that the same could be
largely prevented if they would refer the
applicants to this society, or allow its Sec
rotary or directors to look up these cases
and vouch for them before they are aided.
The design of this society, generously
aided by the public, is to diminish street
begging, and prevent unreliable persons
obtaining, on various pretenses, pecuniary
and other assistance by solicitation.
If our citizens would refer all applicants
to this society before giving the aid sought
they would save themselves from being
imposed upon, and unworthy subjects re-
eeiving aims. R. HALL, Secretary.

4 FIERY NIGHT.
The Fire Department Called Out Three
Times,
Others.

The Fire Department Called Out Three
Times,
The fire fiend made three attempts to
get in its work between the hours of IL
and o'clock this morning, the last alarm
being turned in from box No. Is at 2
o'clock, when flames were Uncovered in
the row of one story frame cottages stu
ated on Exchange, near Ninth street.
The fire was first discovered
by Officer Komitzie and from indications
it started at the corner of the barn owned
by Chas. Rapp, and located il the rear of
No. 422 Exchange, occupied as a dwelling
by Conrad Stoutz. The flames spread to
the latter and from thence communicated
to the dwelling of II. De Graw. No. $40
Exchange street, and to the
paint shop conducted by Peter Shorlet at
No. 424 Exchange street. On reaching the
scene healthy stream was directed on
the buildings and the work of removing
the furniture was commenced, most of the
latter being safely secured.
After near half hours hard work the fire
was gotten under control. The buildings
are all owned by Charlas Ropp, and the
origin of the fire is unknown. The damage
it is thought is not great,
Mr.. Stoutz is insured for $500, and MIR. De
Graw for $500. The loss and insurance
on the paint shop was not ascertained.

THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
Meeting of the Board of Education Last
Night.

II Getting of the Board of Education Last
Night.
There was fully attended meeting of
the board of education last evening.
The chairman of the committee on real es-
work on five school houses on the founda-
ton work of some OF which bids had been
received, bat after considerable discussion,
the whole question of new buildings was
Indefinitely postponed.
The committee on the site for school
house in Terry's addition, asked weeks
further time to report, which was granted.
1t was voted that all bids should here
after be opened before The whole board by
persons appointed by them to do so.
The matter of the resolution of the Sep
TENDER meeting was referred to Mr.. Presl-
dent and Massrs. Hamilton and Horn.
The matter of furnishing better school
accommodations for Grand and Grotto
streets was referred to the committee on
schools.
It was voted nine to two that the Ger
man language be taught in the higher
classes in the Neill and Jackson schools
and that Miss Fender be engaged as teach
er of the same at salary of $35 per
month.
1t was voted unanimously that the su-
perintendent of the schools be requested
to act with tho chairman of the committee
on means and supplies in purchasing phil
osophical apparatus for the new high
school building not to exceed $500 in cost.
The matter of the opening of the new.
high school building was discussed, and it
was thought it might be possible to occu-
by it next Monday, as the steam heating
apparatus which had hindered its occu-
pancy was about completed.
1t was stated that at the August meeting
the matter of new sidewalk in front of
the high school building was acted upon.
A member explained that the walk was
voted by the board of public works some
time ago, but they had thought best not to
lay it until the bull ing was completed,
SO that it might not be
injured during the process of the build
ing's construction. This member further
added that the board would cause the walk
to be laid at once.
To prevent the building of row OF
wooden buildings opposite the new high
school building, it was voted to ask the
city council then in session to extend the
fire district to embrace the high school
building, and Messrs. Oppenheim, Schiff-
mann and Officer were appointed COM
mittee to Immediately wait on the same
and present the request.
The motion that special committee be
appointed to consider the text book ques-
ton to report at special meeting, was
lost.
A member explained that the refusal of
the board to procure new bell for the
high school building was abortive, as the
pians and specifications for the building
provided also for new bell.
The committee on schools reported the
following list of teachers, which was
adopted: Miss J. Fawcette, second grade,
Van Buren,; Miss h. Rudy, night school,
Madison; Miss Harriet Strong and Miss
J. CHM, night school, franklin; Miss L.
Stone, night school, Van Buren,; Miss L.
MCGUIRE, night school, Monroe.

The new and beautiful Grand Opera house
contained d sood audience in point of both num-
bers and personnel last night, upon the second
appearance of the Emma Abbott English Opera
company. Numerically, however, the audience
was not what it should have been, as there was
a decided falling off from the opening night,
and the contrast was all the more painfully ap-
parent.
The reason for this is not apparent, especially
when the popularity of the Abbott company
with st. Paul audiences is considered in the
past, and from the farther fact that the opera
selected for last night was immeasurably better
adapted to the vocal powers of the company
than the composition given on the first night,
and its rendition was much mere enjoyable. The
opera was "Linda di Chameuni," one of Doni-
lions. The opera was new in
st. Paul although many Of the
older patrons OF music will remember itas haY-
ing been great favorite among the school of
light operas popular score of years ago.
The opera last night was delightfully."- rendered
and it met with an enthusiastic reception at the
hands of the audience. Miss Abbott sang and
enacted the role of Linda with vivacity and
great charm of vocahzation. She was especial
ly fine at the close of the second act,
where the discovery that she has
been duped dethrones her reason.
This scene was given with dramatic fervor, and
great expression vocally. Upon the conclusion
of the opera, she sang 'Home Sweet Hone,''
and scarcely ever has the ballad been given with
more touching pathos and sweetness. Zelda
Seguin sang and enacted the role of Pierotto in
a very artistic and enjoyable manner, and Mr.
Castle gave finished rendition, as Carlo The role
of Antonio was admirably sung and acted by Sig
nor Tagliapietra, although the programme by a
very serious blurder had Febrini, the tenor,
down for the part. Messrs. Allen,
Broderick and Cornell added greatly
| to the enjoyment of the performance.
The chorus was effective and the orchestra
| good.
| 1t is to be hoped that hereafter those who oc-
cupy the first row in the gallery will be instruct
ed to keep their feet dswn from the rails and
take their hats eff.

a Serious sOfYese for Which, a Summary
Punishment Must Follow.
Yesterday morning Chief Clark receiv-
ed a telegram from Hallock, requesting
him to notify the banks of st. Paul to
not cash check on elevator receipt fol
$500, issued by the Sterritt Elevator COM
pauy of that place. About noon two men
named Wells and Eldridge presented the
check at the ST. Paul National baak, and
the cashier telephoned police headquarters
Chief Clark went down and placed the
men under arrest.
1t appears that these men are farmers
living near Halleck, and that they mort
gagged their growing crop of wheat. They
then took il when threshed to the Sterreti
elevator, and the man in charge OF
the elevator gave them a draft upon the
elevator company in ST. Paul. Fortunately
he discovered that it was msrtgaged wheat
which they had brought, and he teie-
graphed to stop payment on the draf'
with the result stated above. Mr.. Sterreti
declares il to be his intention to make the
severest possible example the law allows
of these men, not ouly as punishment fol
them personally, but as warning tc
others.
