Good Eating.

The Criterion restaurant is growing in
popularity every day. The new manage
ment thoroughly understand how to con-
duct public eating house with acceptabil-
Ivy Among the special features of the
place is the excellence and cheapness of the
most common and DESTROYS articles of diet
Tor instance, large bowl of oatmeal and
milk can be obtained for 10 cents; also,
bread, butter and milk for 10 cents: bread
and butter, cents; coffee of a superior
quality, cents; buttermilk. cents. This
is enough to show how cheaply things are
sold, and as to the quality none can fail to
be pleased with it. To further make meal
tempting, everything about the place is as
clean as it can be made, and the attendance
is by polite walters, who are well trained
in their work. As is well known, Criterion

The New Orleans Exposition.

When the proposition to continue the
Minnesota exhibit at the New Orleans eX-
hibition was first preached it met with con-
siderable favor. Oliver Gibbs, Jr., the
Minnesota commissioner TO the fair last
winter, is an enthusiastic supporter of the
enterprise, and he has had the best pos
sible opportunity of noticing the advan-
tageS which accrued to the state from its
exhibit. But when the scheme calls
Tor $50, 600 in addition to that already spent
II then becomes a matter for thought and
discussion; particularly when our own state
Ialr Is calling loudly for more funds. Citi-
Zens OF Minnesota are always ready TO spend
money in advertising their state, but it must
poets for return. Speaking on this sub
leet yesterday, Gen. Sanborn, president of
the chamber of commerce, adj
yanced the further argument that
this year is not likely TO be a
very prosperous one in the United States
and that it would be better TO curtail ex-
penSes for a year or two. Aid. Van Slyke,
on the other hand, is of the opinion that the
exhibit should be taken back to New Or
leans, for he believes that what Minnesota
can produce should be shown to all the
world as much as possible. The opinion,
however, of a number of gentlemen spoken
to on the subject, including ID. r. NOyes,
Springer Harbaugh, c. W. Hackett and
Gen. Bishop. was that the success of the
exposition was so uncertain that it would
be too ventureSOme an experiment for Min
neSOta TO invest $50. 900 in it.

THE CENSUS RETURNS.

They Were Filed by the Auditors of
the Two Counties Yesterday.
Yesterday morning the auditors of Ram
sey and Hennepin counties proceeded to the
capitol together, and with due fOrmality,
passed the census returns of their respective
counties TO the secretary of state.
A small crowd of officials had gathered
and was eagerly clamoring for the figures
before the clerk could unfold the papers
that had been so eagerly watched for since
the 1st of Aug. 1t took about thirty sec
Onds to run down the columns of towns
until the total of six figures showed where
st. Paul and Minneapolis were.
There was such general demand
to know the figures that a dep
uty took a piece of white card
board and writing the totals on it for
the two cities hung it just outside the door,
like bulletin board. 1t read:
Minneapolis. Observation-Disclosures. .129,20O
st. Paul. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS III ,3sI
These figures surprised everybody, several
Minneapolis men, who happened TO be pres
ent, being as much surprised as any body.
1t was not half an hour before there were
groups of two or three i'll various offices
that had computed just what the percent
age of gain was; what proportion of the
population Of the state was in the two
cities: what effect a reapportionment would
have. and q dozen other interesting features.
1t was the general subject of conversation
and everybody was surprised that the
cities had grown so fast The
population OF the townships of
both counties has not increased in proper
ton. In 1880 the towns in Ramsey county,
outside of st. Paul was 4.276, and the fig
ureS returned yesterday show the popula-
ton now to be 4. S34. In the towns in Hen
nepin county the population in 1880 was
49, 900, and in 1885 it was 1876 loss Of
ia. Following are the figures for the two
counties in detail as reported yesterday,

THE ROBERT STREET SEWER.
An Oid-Time Relic Exhumed in a
Good State Of Preservation.

The recent excavation being made on
Robert street near the Hotel Ryan revealed

works, corner Nash and Mississippi streets.
This pipe formed the old Robert street
sewer, and was put in nearly eight years
ago. When taken out 10 make room for
the large brick sewer going in on that
street, II was found as hard as flint and as
perfect as when first put in.
The contractor, in speaking Of IL said he
was surprised TO find il in such excellent
condition, and that his men experienced a
great deal Of trouble in breaking it. sledge
hammers being required.
In this connection it might be appropriate
TO state that inquiry among builders contract

Totals. 1897 100

In the two cities has not been widely differ
ent, though. the figures show slight lead
for Minneapolis. ST. Paul with Al, 473, has
increased to Ill, S97, gain of 16S and a
fraction per cent. Minneapolis with 40, ss7,
has increased to $4,000, gain
of 176 and fraction per
cent. This is a larger proportionate
growth than occurred during the preceding
five years for st. Paul, when the population
increased only from 80, IFS to 41.639, a rate
of less than so per cent, and it is even
larger than for the ten years preceding
1880, when the city increased from 90, 030
to 41,473, a gam of a little over
100 per cent. In Minneapolis the
per cent. is much less than during the phe-
nomenal ten years from 1870 to 1880, when
the city grew from IL, O66 to 46, SS7, an in
crease of nearly 800 per cent.
The cost of taking the census was the
same per person in both counties. $1.75 per
100, and accordingly the total for Ramsey
county is 81, 064.69, and for Hennepin, ST.
1865.

HON. RUFUS MAGEE.
A "Reminiscences of His Early Career


Hon. Rufus Magee, OF Cass County who
has Just been rendered the Consul General
ship OF the United States 10 Sweden and
Norway, has been quite prominent in the
Democratic politics Of this State for several
years, having been Secretary OF the Demo
cratic State Central Committee, and during
the present Legislature Senator representing
Csss County. His appointment to foreign
mission recalls to mind an incident in his
early experience, which he has certainly not
forgotten. In 1Se6, we think it was, when
the writer filed the position OF Superior.
dent of the Lafayette Journal in addition to
his other duties Rufus Msgee held cases in
the composing room working under slug
"a" The Office was at hat time on the corners
Of Third and Ferry streets. where Ddhy's
marble shop now is. The Governors mes
sage was being set up.
The manuscript copy was f-arful, the
lights bad, the proofs worse and everybody
tired and cross. About ? o'clock in the
morning. when there was yet two or three
columns of matter to get up, Msgee laid
down his stick, washed his hands and put on
his coat, leaving al eighth of a column of
copy lying unfinished On his case. Upon be-
Ing asked by the foreman what he meant,
he remarked, 81 will never set another type
as long as / livew He was expostulated
with leaving the paper in the lurch, in that
way, when every line counted. but he was
opdurate, and said he was going 10 study
law. The superintendent and proprietor
were called into the room, but they could
not induce him to so to work. The next
we heard of him was at school at Blooming
ton, and he finally turned up editor and
proprietor Of the Logansport Pharos, aud
afterwards as a practitioner OF law. His
career from that time to the present is
known to most Of our readers. He has
certainly built himself from the ground up.
The Call wishes to add lis words to the
general commendstion with which the
nomination CT Err. Rufus Magee, to Minis.
Ter TO Sweden and Norway, has been greeted.
He is 3 consistent Democrat, of course, or
he would not have been nominated; but
aside from his politics, is gentleman who
will be satisfactory TO good citizens of every
shsdsiof opinion. He began life poor boy
il printing office, and has won whatever
of distinction and reward he has By hard
work. He is a man of character and in
tegrity, and will re1sct credit upon our
