Sundays Pleasure seekers.

Travel to the lakes and the favorite pic
mic grounds in all directions was very gen.
eral yesterday, under the fine weather that
prevailed from morning to evening. Each
train to White Bear for the first half of the
day took out goOd-sized excursion parties.
Fishing was quite general and several good
strings were brought in. The short line
trains took numerous pleasure seekers to
Merriam Park, and numerous fishing parties
INDUCED in the sport along the banks of the
Mississippi, near the short line bridge. A
picnic at Banholzer's grove attracted good
many Germans, who whiled away an hour
or more to good music. Minnetonka, too,
had it's visitors, though in smaller numbers
and the parks within the city limits were
alive with humanity Of all ages. stat4.

A Confidence Game.

A smooth confidence game, in which
II. M. Curtiss, an East Minneapolis man.
figured to the extent of S140, was played on
the eastern train of the Chicago, Milwaukee
& St. Paul railway Saturday afternoon. 1t
is the old story of couple of ''con'' men
working on a victim possessed OF more
money than caution. Mr.. Curtiss left Min
neapolis for a trip down the country.
Shortly after the train pulled out Of Mime
apolis one of the sharks engaged him in
conversation, found out where he
was going and other necessary details. A
little after he left his partner, Shark No. 2
fioated in, and with all the facts which Mr..
Curtiss had told the first one, asked him to
cash some paper which would be paid at
his destination. Mr.. Curtiss agreed and
paid over the $140. The confidence man
then went out to sign the receipt, but failed
to return and has not been heard of
since. AS soon as Mr.. Curtiss
discovered he had been victimized, he re-
ported the matter to the railway author
tiles and the necessary steps were taken to
catch the crooks if possible before any other
man is served the same Way

THE MISSING LINK.
Wonderful Freak of Nature Now
i'm st. Paul.

Down in the village of canvas that will
to-day be opened up. as John B. Doris cir
Gus and menagerie, GLOBE reporter yes
terday found the strange freak called
''Krao," the child animal, captured three
years ago in the Northern Siam. She
has had checkered existence since found
by the explorers, and is, if for nothing else
than this. curiosity. Nearly all the cities
Of Europe have seen the freak and won
dered at it. 1t is believed that she is about
9 years old, and she is well developed ply
sically and Intellectually. She reads and
writes English and German, and
her department is not unlike that of the
average human being. Over the forehead
of the child is a heavy growth of jet-black
hair, covering the head, extending down
the neck, and growing luxuriantly over the
shoulders and down the spine, like heavy
name. The arms and legs are covered, too,
with growth that is somewhat less dense.
The eyebrows are wide and silken, curving
slightly over eyes that are jet black, with
out a pupil, the same as gorilla
BY many ''Krao" is believed to possess
more of the characteristics of the long
sought missing link" than any Of the curl
osities that have figured under that name.
She was examined by number of local
physicians, who found her hard conun-
drum and had to give her up.

A SAD DECLINE.
Free.Lunch Routes Abandoned in
st. Paul.

Apropos of the decadence of the mania
for opening free-lunch counters in st. Paul,
it may not be amiss to note few circum-
stances connected with their rise and fall
Up to the autumn election last year the
number of free-lunch counters in St.Paul was
small. The tramp fiend acknowledged
this fact with deep regret, and over the alb
sence of happier and more flourishing days
he combined the fortiter in re with the
suaviter in modo, dropped few sullen
tears and betook himself hence to the green
pastures of Minneapolis.
But just after election new saloon was
opened on East Seventh street that heralded
with bill of fare and an abominable brass
band that it had established a free lunch
counter, to which all were welcome. In a
week it was the most popular resort in the
city, and the police found it profitable to
call in there wheen seeking suspicious char
acters. The bill of fare provided was an
extensive one. There were roast beef and
ham, turkey and bivalves, weiner wurst
and potato salad, white and rye bread,
German rusks, sausages, cabbage salad,
etc. All this could be dipped into for the
price of a glass of beer and eaten to the
tune of sSweet Violets," or some Other
popular ar.
IN A FORTNIGHT
several saloonkeeperS, whose places had be-
come depopulated, caught on to the fact
that lunch counter was drawing. if not
paying attraction. In another weeks
time, Seventh street, from the Short line
crossing to the ''fill," was alive with lunch
counters; Wabasha street blOssOmed with
them; Third street was not far behind, and
as to music, it was a terror. There were
the piano player and the accordion squeezer,
italian bands and darkey jubilee singers.
Huge signs hung over the walks, bearing
the mystic signs Free Lunch Here" are
the band played at p. m. Until Jan. l, the
business apparently doomed and then it be-
gan to decline, and has continued to decline
ever since.
THE SECRET OF THE FAILURE
is that it did not pay. The people who eat
from lunches as rule are those who Gle
not buy any amount of liquor. They In
dulge in 5 cents worth of beer and eat %
cents worth of lunch. Hence, the proprl-
etors of free lunch resorts lost an average
of about 90 cents on each customer. Peo-
pie who spend money in liquor usually eat
at home, and the fare OF lunch counter
does not tickle their palates. They are
proof to the allurements of a ham sand
witch. The tramps and buns are the chief
harvesters of free lunch, and wax merry
over the feast. Wiping their lips they
pounce on ''that' lunch until it is a sad
wreck of bones and crusts.

A young Prisoner.


A beardless youth of 20 twenty summers
named J. c. Haley was arrested on the ar
rival of the train from Chicago yesterday
afternoon, on Geographic instructions re-
ceived from Mark Lewis, chief of police Of
Madison, Wis. The, offense for which
Haley is held is not known. He was
sesrched on being taken to the police sta
ton and found to have on his person gold
watch and $135.
A GLOBE reporter saw Haley last even
ing, but the latter denied any offense on
which he may have been arrested He said
that his mother has been inclined to ill
treat him and has frequently told him that
he could leave home whenever he wanted
to go. He accordingly made up his mind
to go, and boarded the through train for ST.
Paul yesterday morning. The gold watch,
he rays, was one, given him by his uncle,
who died two years since, and the money is
the result of three years saving. He has
had it in bank, and drew it out yester-
day. He will be held to await the arrival

DRY GOODS AT AUCTION.
IMPORTANT
TO thePubliC,

The unusual depression Of
trade during the past month
has been a source of uneasi-
ness to many firms in bust
ness throughout the North
west, and believing that it is
better to suffer loss now than
wait until the season has
passed, / will offer commenc-
ing THIS MORNING, my en-
tire stock of Summer Goods,
at July and August prices, at
the old corner formerly Oc-
cupied by J. M. Warner, Third
and Cedar streets. The store
has been thoroughly refitted
and filled with one Of the
choicest stocks Of Mems and
Boys Clothing, Gents Fur
nishing Goods, Hats, Caps,
Etc, ETC., that has ever come
to st. Paul. Being bought
when business was stagnant
in the East, and every adyan-
tage could be taken, it stands
to-day the best selected and
cheapest stock Of goods in
Minnesota. We are enabled
to sell at less than other
dealers can buy, and will cut
still deeper into the Summer
Goods
Examine the stock and be
convinced.
A SILK or WORSTFD CAP
will be given free of charge
to each purchaser of goods
to the amount of S1.00 or up
wards.

INTERVIEW WITH AN Ex-oFFICER.
A GLOBE reporter met an ex-army officer
of distinction whose familiarity with army
regulations rendered him capable of judging
the merits of the controversy between Col.
Bend and Gen. MacCarthy. In response to
the GLOBES inquiry the ex-officer said:
ssThe article referred to by Col. Bend as
authority for his conduct is explicit enough.
That gives the infantry the right of the
line, and there is where they should have
been placed. Yes, I read Gen.
MacCarthy's letter this morning and
l think he strains point
when he cites the article which refers to
the funeral of general officer. The au-
thority quoted by Col. Bend is the only
authority in the regulations of the United
States army which applies to such parade
as was had on Saturday. 1t struck me as
a little curious that MacC arthy didn't order
Bend under arrest when the latter refused
to obey his order. You see MacCarthy is
the war department just now. If Gen.
Terry should receive an order from the de-
partment at Washington signed by Adju-
tant General Drum, and because Sec
rotary Endicott should happen to be away
from home at the time and Gen. Terry
would conclude to ignore the order or dis
obey it, he would be court-martialed as sure
as fate"

Am Old CITIZEN Gone.

Thomas Erd, well-known and respected
citizen, died yesterday morning at his resi-
dence, No. 243 West Sixth street. Mr..
Erd was born in Weitach Bavaria, Germany,
in 1928. He came to America in 1852 and
after residing several years in Detroit,
Mich, and St. Louis, came to ST. Paul in
1851. Some of the best and largest build
ings in this city testify to his ability and
integrity as contractor and stone cutter.
He was never wearied at his work and this
to such extent that the business had a
serious effect on him. In the last few years
his health was poor and shattered
and especially since the death of his wife
in 1885 he was more or less an invalid. He
spent year in England, which relieved
him for short time only, for he was soon
stricken down with cancer Of the stomach,
from which he suffered for the last two
years of his life. Since the death of his
wife the deceased has lived with his daugh-
ter, Mrs. Refs, wife of City Treasurer Refs,
until recently. His other children are Mrs.
Geist, wife of Emil Geist, and Sophia Erd
and John 3. Erd, unmarried,
