There are but very few people in st.
Paul who have not at one time or another,
met the genial and familiar countenance
of Major Joe Spiel, the courteous and eff
cient city jailor, and not officially, mind
you, either. Yesterday was his fifty first
birthday anniversary, and he celebrated
the event by passing around the Havana
cigars to all of his old friends who called
at the city hall. 1t also signalized his
thirty years. residence in 81. Paul and
many were the stories told of the good
old days when the major was rich in these
worlds goods and when many of the men
now to the front did not possess even the
solitary feather which clothed the proven
bal turkey of Mr.. Jobs. Truly times

on every possible opportunity he has tried
to give away his paper whenever he could
lind any one willing to receive it. As all
other projects have evidently failed new
scheme was developed in st. Paul yester-
day morning. Subscribers of the Pioneer
Press when they went to look for their
morning paper found it not, but in its
place was copy of the Minneapolis Tri
6une, paper that none of these
disappointed people had ever before seen,
and had scarcely heard Of. II the good
Deacon could have some in contact with
the persons alluded to any time yesterday

Minneapolis troops under command of
LIT. Col. Johnson it their subscribers are
any more annoyed by fading the Mime
