If the board of trade devotes any time this
morning TO the discussion of the legislative
reception it will be amusing to note the diff
ference in tone The last time it was men
toned it was with gloomy forebodings. But
nothing succeeds like success, and now the
members will be happy. 1t must be borne
In mind, however, that to the board OF trade
all the success is due. 1t was the stand II
took and the hearty support it gave its COM
mittee that lent the prestige that made sue
cess sure. In this respect the chamber OF
commerce might take a lesson.

to an officer who had seen him splashed all
over by flying vehicle. The man was about
to cross the street when a team whirled
along, scattering mud and slush indiserim-

shook his head, looked at the rapidly-dls-
appearing team and took walk.

At this particular season Sunday is an ex-
ceedingly quiet day in minneapolis, a fact
which occasions rejoicing in the breasts Of
much regretted by the worker of the week
who pins his faith to the belief that the Sab
bath was made for man and not man for the
Sabbath. Yesterday was just such a quiet
day, and the stranger within the city gates
would have been impressed by it. In the
summer time, when the street are thronged
with prOmenaders, the cars with pleasure
seekers and the avenues with vehicles, the

To those who have d taste for music, who
find time dragging on q Sunday afternoon,
the sacred concert at Turner hall yields a
great pleasure. The hall was crowded yes
terday afternoon and the music rendered by
the DanZ orchestra was roundly applauded.
In the evening Columbia and the Pavilion
had each its large audience, differing decid-
edly in the makeup, but each listened to
good music. A stranger in the city remarked
last night that while he did not care to com
NIT himself on the character Of the places in
which he heard it, the music was wonderfully
good.
After a prolonged whirl at melo-drama,
enother at Indifferent opera and session
with emotional drama the Grand will take a
shy at comedy this week and doubtless do
better than with any of the foregoing, as the
two companies are exceptionally strong.
And then, in comedy, If some one goes out,
abruptly, there is 10 jar. The first part of
last week, during the Ford engagement, Miss
Scguin was singing the principal solo of the
evening, when lady and gentleman left the
house. They were in hurry and could not
wait till she was through or until
the act was completed, so they hustled
about, talked and laughed as they
went and did not disturb more than two
thirds OF the audience. But they were for
given, because they were in hurry to go TO
rink The next evening young couple
in the balcony undertook to run star en-
gagement against the stage. They had begun
conversation which shortly became so en-
crossing they forgot the place and their sur
rouudings and gradually raised their voices
until they had become center Of attraction.
The lady discovered it first and they both
FLUSHED. Nobody else biushed. They were
too busy swearing.

The people OF Minneapolis are once more
playing in very tough luck. For six long
and weary weeks the honest, Woodworking
and conscientious people of this commun
ity were daily inflicted with report of pro-
gress In the adjustment Of the insurance on
the Academy of Music. They writhed I'M
der the torture in secret, but outwardly bore
1t with every show Of Christian resignation.
Finally an award was made by arbitration,
aud a glad TIE Deum went up from the re-
lievcd hearts of an oppressed municipality.
But at goes this and then gets worse
After this woe and the final laying Of the pub
lie specter, Il is resurrected again by the
opinion of some lawyers that Lowry and
Mcrrick are not compelled to abide the decis-
ion OF the arbitrator. OF course then, they
won't do IT, and for six weeks more the az
ony will be kept up. The public patience is
great, but there is limit to all things.
