West St.IPaul Levee.

The people of West st. Paul have been
very anxious to get leves constructed in
the Sixth ward, and have worked for sew
eral years to get the city council to in
dulge them in this luxury. The city finally
consented, and proceeded to take the
necessary steps to build the levee. The
usual forms were gone through with, and
after much tribulation and annoyance the
West st. Paul levee was started on its way
to completion, and property owners in
their minds eye beheld an empire located
on the fats of West st. Paul, and visions
of riches beyond the power of pen to de-
scribe, took possession of the minds of all
men interested. The whole flats were re-
verberating with songs of praise for the
city. Everything was blooming. Tafy

bers of the board of public works consti-
tuted the cosiest lot of pleasant and ac-
commodatIng gentlemen that ever received

Going for a Newspaper,

Judge Gribble was at the municipal
court yesterday for warrant for the arrest
of Mr.. Fred Driscoll, Jr., representing his
father during his absence in ''Urup" in the
management of the Pioneer Press. Judge
Gribble makes the serious charge against
Mr.. Driscoll of perjury, in connection, it
is understood, with the answer set up by
the Pioneer Press company to the com
plant in the suit he lately commenced
against it for libel. For some reason not
understood by the reporter, Clerk Fairchild
declined to issue the warrant, and for the
present Judge Gribble is baked in his eff
forts to secure justice. But law machinery
is full of wheels, and Judge GribbIe is de-
termined to work the entire combination
before desisting in his efforts to make Mr.
Driscoll answer, and disprove, if he can, or
If not, suffer the consequences of the
serious crime he lays at his door.

charge of his duties on Tuesday, and has
since been busily occupied in providing

innovations. Prior to his taking charge,
''still alarms were frequently received BY
companies that were not communicated
to headquarters. In the future such will
not be the case. Affairs at the Office of
the chief will be conducted with regard to

continuously day and night.
Superintendent jenkins, of the fire alarm
telegraph, is busy rearranging the affairs
of that portion of the department.
The boxes, whence alarms are sent.
in the future will be stationed
so arranged as to guard against false
alarms from mischievous parties. The
locks on each will be changed into what is
known as trap lock, which retains the
key within its interior until released by
one of the fire officials who first responds.
These release keys are carried by Chief
Black, his assistant, and Superintendent
jenkins. and it is through their agency
alone that the lock can be reset in readi-
ness for another summons. The order is
as follows:

The Schools Must be Free.

Attorney General Hahn, having been
called upon to give a decision as to
whether school boards acting under the
law for the encouragement Of education
may discriminate against nonresident
pupils by making charges for incidental
expenses which do not apply to all the
pupils of the school, holds that the law and
the rules of the board provide that schools
receiving state aid provided by law, shall
admit students of either sex without charge
for tuition.
A price or money paid for instruction
under the guise Or name of incidentaIs, if
the board should charge the same they
would place themselves in position that
they could not legally receive State aid,
and calling the same 'incidentais" makes
no difference. "Incidentals" might be
charged for matters outside of instruction
and not make the forfeiture, but the
danger in this proceeding would be that it
might be abused. There must be clear
proof that ''incidentals' charged for must
be outside of charges for tuition.
