THE POLICE COURT.
The Fate of Two Washers, Who were
Caught at Their Little

John Bogenreif, alias ''Black jack, and
Vim. Berg, alias ''Billy the Kid,'' were ar
raigned in the police court yesterday morn
ing on the charge of stealing bolt of silk
from Smiths dry goods store ON the cor
ner of Seventh and jackson streets.
The theft was committed last Monday and the
method employed was rather singular. They
entered the store together and Bogenreif en-
acted the part of the masher. He got up
filtration with one of the lady clerks and
while this was going on Berg
cabbaged the silk. Yesterday Bogenreif ad-
mitted that he had gone into the store, say
ing that he wanted to purchase yard OF
tape. When Berg took the stand he became
fuddled and almost gave the whole snap
away so contradictory were his statements.
He denied having any completely in the theft
and tried to show that he was in Minneapolis
at the time silk was stolen. He knew some
thing was going to happen, he said, because
he felt it in his bones. They were held to
the grand jury and committed in default Of
81, 800 each.
A. Jeffries was up on the cahrge of bull
doing his wife. A few days ago he com
menced an action for divorce against his
wife on the grounds of cruel and inhuman
treatment Since they parted Mrs. Jeffries
claims that he calls at her house and insists
on seeing her, conducting himself in very
noisy and obstreperous manner. The hear
ing was continued until tomorrow.
The case of o. Sullivan, j. Hanley and
Ed Burke, charged with assault, was again
continued until tomorrow morning.

THE RESULT OF A BUGGY RIDE.
A Young Girl Tells of How She Came
to be Deceived.

The course of true love is breaking rather
rocky for Rosa Mcdonald, who came into
the police court yesterday looking as pretty
as valentine, or tea store picture card.
Rosa had loved, not wisely, but alas, too
we'll. She told her story to Clerk Fairchild
yesterday, and the latter wept. Even a
mummy has been known to weep, but cases
of this kind are rare. 1t was last
fall, when the leaves were turning to
brown and russell and gold, and when the
Thanksgiving turkeys were getting ripe
enough to pick. They had gone buggy
riding, she said, but it was her last buggy
ride; she hadn't thought he was such mon
ster, for had she not been told that he was a
nice young man, and that nice young men
were always honorable. Lack-a-day, for poor
Rosie; it was a sad buggy ride for her, for it
dspoiled her of woman's choicest jewel
Yesterday she wanted the gay deceiver
arrested; his name is VIM. Huff and she
wants him to be present when the child is
born. The worst of it is that he has skipped
out, and the prospects for Rosie are indeed
bad

REAL ESTATE.
A Market Devoid of Especial Features
During the
Week.
Increasing Demand for Dayton's Bluff Prop
erty---The Trans
fers.

There is very little occasion for comment
upon the real estate market as it has present
ed itself during the past week. 1t cannot be
said to be either active or inactive. AS a
matter of fact, the sales have not been very
numerous or very large. This, how
ever, is largely owing to the
fact that the weather has been unfavorable,
besides which the ground has been covered
with considerable snow, which of course
prevents the exhibition of property. The
condition Of the market is satisfactory to
dealers, for the reason that prices remain
firm, with an upward tendency, and the
whole tone of the market is per-
vaded by a strong, healthy, and
improving tendency. There can be no mis-
taking the situation. At no point in the
whole line is there weak spot There is
frmness everywhere, with no one at all anX
ious to SELL All along through the week
there has been a good inquiry. A good many
strangers are in town, and more are coming,
and nearly all such are making inquiry and
looking about.
The sir is full of reports about new rail
roads heading this way. If everything can
be believed in this respect, before the year
closes st. Paul will be the terminus of four or
five new roads. They are all coming here,
and some will get into the city in way, and
from a direction very little thought of at
present.
The inquiry for Dayton's bluff property
still continues, and at present the demand
increases. The property in that direction
has always been greatly underrated and it is
but recently that it has come UP in the mar
ket to even remote approximation to a
reasonable relative value. The demand for
property in this direction is very great and
it may be said to be the most active of any
in the city. The inquiry for business prop
erty is also improving.

assured the directors that while he resigned
The position Of president, he should continue
TO take deep interest in the
welfare Of the club, and that he would exert

IT. c. DOnnelly for the position of president.
The latter declined, and on mo-
ton of Mr.. DonneIly, Mr.. A. F.

tlemen Of broad experience, and he is adj
mirably adapted to fill the important and
trustworthy position.
Col. Allen was then made one CT the dire
tors Of the club, and on motion Mr.. L. A.
Robert was elected secretary. Mr.. Robert is
q gentleman of experience and
culture and undoubted integrity,

OF Detroit, Michigan. The secretary

technical alterations and report the same at

MOBILES AS MAN.
Mr.. Mobiles used to live in brick house
which stood in the middle of Rice street on
the Como road. He was not an educated
man, but man of good natural abilities. He
had great confidence in himself; was ambit-
ious; inventive; social, aspiring, very self
reliant, and withal, progressive. He was a
man of energy, as was illustrated in his trip
to the mountains, and he was also hard
worker. The old settlers will remember him
as good deal of q politician, with hasty
temper, but possessing many fine traits OF
character which still live, as q memory OF the

HOW ST. PAUL WAS MADE THE CAPITAL.
article XII.

HOW ST. PAUL WAS MADE THE CAPITAL.
General Sibley was sent as delegate from
Minnesota and Wisconsin to represent this
then section of country, in the year 1S4S.
While in congress he labored for a bin Or
ganizing the territory of Minnesota; sue
ceeded in getting the bill through the senate,
but at the instigation of Senator Douglas
Mendoza was made the capital. General
Sibley, though warm friend of Douglas,
strenuously opposed this, and the name OF
st. Paul was finally inserted. Mendoza was
placed in the bill by Douglas, who had visit
ed Fort Smelling and knew the character of
the country in that section. 1t was through
the efforts solely of Gen. Sibley that st. Paul
was made the capital of the state of Mime
sofa.

straight as an arrow, with a complexion quite
| ford. He was always cool, dignified, some
| what reserved, yet pleasant. Some years ago
ne purchased thirty acres of land on the bluff
overlooking the city, now The
property of Mr. Nettleton, for which he paid
about $40 per acre. He then built very
fine house upon the premises, and finally
sold the property to the present owner. What
Major Hatch then paid $40 per acre for is
now worth $50, 900, or 81, 900 per acrel A
few years before he died, he was in the en-
ploy of the Manitoba Railroad company. He
was kind-hearted gentleman, an affections
ate husband and father, and his memory is
very generally cherished by those who knew
him. Major Hatch died in 1881.
| SWINGING ON THE GARDEN GATE.
In 1858 we saw bright, brilliant bla OK
eyed girl swinging on gate, which led to a
small white house, on Third street, the home
| of A. 7. G. Pierson. She was full of youthful
hope and happiness-the very picture at
| that time, of a beautiful young girl, and
merry thoughts dubbed all over in her
| twinkling eyes as she toyed with the rainbow
| tints of the future Later she be-
came the wife of Major Hatch; later
| still, the widow, surrounded with family:
and although dark clouds of sorrow have shut
out great deal of the sunshine of her mar
ried life, still the charming Lolita of thirty
one years ago is still the matured, motherly,
matronly, pleasant Lolita of 1884.
WILLIAM H. NoBLEs-FIRsT WAGON EVER

William H. Mobiles came to st. Paul in

turned out the first wagon ever made in Min

representative to the legislature from
Ramsey county; laid out a wagon road to the
Pacific ocean; discovered one of the best
passes to the Rocky Mountains; was elected
lieutenant colonel of the Seventy-ninth New
York volunteers, was cotton collector for the

THE RAILROADS.
The Passenger Rate Complications.
IChicaoo Tribune Doth


No open reduction in east-bound passenger
rates has yet been made, but it is believed that
that the war will be inaugurated within day or
two. A meeting of the representatives of the
anti-Nanderbilt roads is to be held this morning,
and Mr.. France Chandler, of the Wabash arrived
last evening to participate in the proceedings.
mat some decisive action will be taken is quite
certain. The rates would already have been re-
duced but for the fear of one two of the roads
that such action would most seriously affect their
earnings. 1t is orgued by the others, however,
that IL would be better to reduce rates at once to
50 Chicago to New York, as none of the roads
would be anxious to keep up such rate any great
length OF time, and consequently peace could be
conquered at much less cost than if the present
state of affairs were allowed to continue.
Mr.. G. w. RuggIes, general passenger agent
OF the Michigan Central returned from his east
ern trip yesterday. He emphatcally denies the
charge that he has put out about $1U0, coo worth
of mileage tickets. He says he issued some
$1,000 or 1900 worth of such tickets to MIR.
Dalziel of the Ne2Us- Letter for publishing bis Rip
Van Wrinkle book, and got his money back from
advertisements, All roads were in the habit OF
paying for advertising with thousand-mile tick
cts. He admits that The Vanderbilt roads agreed
! to pay commissions TO steamship agents as
charged, but this was done only after it had been
aScertalnedthat other roads had been doing the
same for some time past. The Michigan Cen
tral, he said, did not mean to precipitate a pas
senger war, but was determined to protect its in
terests.
The competitors of the Michigan Central claim
that they are able to put their hands Oh more than
$4,000 worth of milage tickets issued by the
Michigan Central which have found their way
into scalping Offices. They insist that the Van
derbilt roads in spite of their denials, have been
inaugurating all this trouble, and that the COM
petition of these roads can only be met by an
open reduction in rates.
