with o. A. Pray presiding. S. c. Gale was
quickly chosen vice president and the re-
suit was announced amid considerable ap-
plause. Over the election of a secretary
there was considerable difficulty. The Sc
lection of the proper man was destined, as
was generally admitted, to make the success
of the exposition and an improper one to
unmake it quite. Six candidates were pre-
sented, including two well-known boomers
from out of town, but after several ballots
it became evident no choice could be made
that day. Accordingly IL. G. Harrison was
elected treasurer and the election of sec
rotary was postponed until next Monday at
D. M, to which time the board adjourned.

THE uOPENING DAY
OF the December Term of the Distri,
COurt-.Yesterday, Decision.

Of the December Term of the District
COurt--Yesterday's Decision.
Two hundred chairs were yesterday
placed in the large courtroom for the ac-
commodation of members of the bar during
the calling of the calendar and setting OF
cases for the December term to-day. Ac-
cording to the custom, heretofore adhered to,
of taking turn about, Judge Lochren should
hear the court cases, Judges Young and
KoOn the jury cases, the latter also to charge
the grand jury and hear the criminal cases.
1t was learned yesterday that in view OF
the fact that Judge Young is to hold court
in Wright county next week there may
possibly be a change in the order by which
the duty of charging the grand jury and
hearing the majority of the criminal cases
will deyolve upon Judge Young.
yesterdays DECISIONS.
Judge Koon yesterday filed decision re-
fusing Elizabeth II. White divorce from
Richard S. White. The cause assigned was
willful desertion. and while no defense was
made the court deems the facts set forth in
the complaint insufficient. The evidence
tended to show that the defendant was a
habitual drunkard, and had at different
times been unfaithful and did not support
the plaintiff as well as he might have done,
but the court says that case of willful de-
sertion was not made out except in the de-
sertion of the defendant by the plaintiff.
In the action brought by Lucy P. Gilman
against j. c. Plummer to rescind con-
tract and recover S562.49 paid thereon,
Judge Young yesterday filed decision Or
dering judgment for the defendant.
In the suit of A. B. Clamper VS.. Eliza
Smith, Judgment was ordered in favor of
the plaintiff for $359.67.
In the suit of Henry Klien VS.. James
Hickey, demurrer to the complaint was
sustained.

Mary 81. Cawthorn, 81 years old, yester-
day filed bill for divorce from George
Cawthorn, aged 80 years, to whom she was
married Dec. 20, 1876, at La Crosse. The
complaint sets forth a story of abuse,
cruelty and neglect, it being alleged that
the defendant is habitual drunkard.
who was in the habit of caresslng the
plaintiff, throwing her through doors, etc.,
until she left him Oct. 20, 1884. The
wife wanted the custody of Grace E. Caw-
thorne, the only child.
Herman Dahm and wife yesterday APP
piled to the court for leave to adopt child.

Singular Coincidence.

Some parties who have been shipping No.
2 wheat to Chicago say that on Thursday
they found the same quality of grain that
had previously been inspecting No. 2 there,
inspected No. 3, and that off grades for sale
there by sample were hardly salable at the
figures they would bring in Minneapolis
There may be no design on the part of Chi
cago inspectors in this, but there is, it is
claimed, striking coincidence coming as
it does just when Chicago dreaded a long
line of grade wheat from the Northwest.
The Thursday holiday and the two days of
stormy weather have decreased the deliver
les of wheat by farmers in the country very
much from what they were the fore part of
the past week. The break in prices, some
elevator men say, has also contributed to
this result,-Market Record.

Pleasant Taffy for Chase.

Last evening fifty-three members Of the
police force called on Capt. Chase to extend
their good wishes, with their regrets that
he had left the police force. Officer Doug
lass was the spokesman of the party and
made very pleasing speech, in which he
said the desires of the department and the
public, as far as he had learned, were that
the retirement of the captain was only tenn
porary, and in short time they hoped to
see him in his old position again.
Short speeches were made by Sergts.
McKernan and Hill and several others, all
expressing the high esteem that the captain
was held in not only by the police depart
ment but by the citizens generally.

THE BOSTON IDEALS.
Brilliant Audience LisfneS to the
Sparkling ssGiralda.''

Perhaps one of the finest audiences, not
alone in numbers, but in point of fashion
and refinement, that Minneapolis could
turn out was that which last night greeted
the Boston Ideals and rendered them cor
dial welcome. In the throng that filled the
house from footlights to foyer were most of
the prominent society and musical people
OF the city, the faces of distinguished legal
lights, solid bankers and honored office
holders. with those of their families, being
upturned, wreathed in universal smiles, to
the stage when "Giralda" was being sung.
The boxes were all filled, Senator Langdon
and wife and MissCarrie and her guest. Mr..

II. F. Brown and wife being the occupants.

dresses.

and perjury is punishable. 1 am, sir, re-
spectfully, ED A. STEVENS.

Solidifying the Board.

A well-attended meeting of the board of
trade was held yesterday morning, the
doors closed, as the business to be trans
acted was purely private to the board.
Every member had been notified to be
present, and the result was to crowd the
room. The business transacted was look
ing to solidifying the organization and IN
terests of the board, and was completed
satisfactorily to the members. 1t is the
future intention to make the board power
of good and tower of strength to the city,
and the results reached were greeted with
applause. The next regular meeting will
be held on Monday, at which time a full
attendance is indicated.

by the Ford company last season, but a
Minneapolis audience never really heard it
until last night, when the combination of

portunity. The GLOBE has already re-
viewed the performance at length, and it

Confidence Operations.

Yesterday afternoon confidence man
made the acquaintance of a rather green
young man at the union depot. AS they
walked up town the swindler proceeded to
develop the check racket. He needed $50,
and would give a check for $3.50 for secu-
rity. When in front of the Sidle block the
stranger was about to accede to the request,
and pulled out his pocketbook, but finally,
growing suspicious, was about to put it
back, when the confidence man snatched it
and ran up Fourth street, turning onto
Hennepin avenue. In front of the
West hotel the young fellow caught
up with the thief, and a
sort of Graco-RDman wrestle took place
in the middle of the street, which termin-
ated by the thief stepping out of his over
coat and running down an alley. The
young fellow followed and attacked his an
tagonist, who, being stronger and heavier,
knocked the boy down and escaped with
the pocketbook, which contained $50. The
unequal fight in the street in front of the
hotel was witnessed by number of hack
men and others, who did not possess suffi-
cient bravery to interfere, although the
young man cried out that he was being
robbed and implored assistance.

The Police Commission.


The council committee on police met at 2
o'clock yesterday afternoon. The several
candidates for promotion to the vacancies
occasioned by the recent police investiga-
ton were on the qui vive. 1t had become
currently reported that the board of COM
missioners was to consider the matter of
filling vacancies, but the mayor nor the
chief, who are members of the board, did
not meet with the committee, and, conse-
quently, the vital question was not
preached. A tacit understanding was ar
rived at, however, that the commission shall
meet at o'clock tomorrow afternoon and
discuss the affairs of the department, and it
is quite likely that the subject will be
treated with rigidness. A report will prob
ably be prepared for the coun-
Gil, as body, to consider. The only bust
ness done was to audit bills for the COM
mittee on claims to report tomorrow night.
