THE NEWsBOYs, BENEFIT.
1t Drew a Large Audience and was
aCOmpIete Success.


The entertainment for the benefit of the
Newsboys' Home at the Washington rink
last night was remarkably well attended
and was marked by degree of enthusiasm
seldom witnessed at similar performances.
The first event was two-mile bicycle race
between Tom Eek and Albert Shock. 1t
was holly contested and was won by Eek. A
Onemile skating race between Lemmie
Morgan and A. Matthews was won by
Morgan by several laps. Cole Bell and II.

one of the funniest events of the season and
drew forth round after round of applause.
The little lads ran like a flock of sheep
and some remarkably quick time
was made. A three-mile bicycle
race between Stockdale, Cutter and
Hale was won by St0ckdale. Mr.. Keller
and Mr.. Kane next gave fine exhibition Of
Gr@co-Roman wrestling The real event

creditable performance on the trapeze, after
which Cole and Mckay rode one-mile
bicycle race. Prof. Duplessis and Ed

GREAT LOOSENExs SHOWN
In the Snider-Gross Contest-.New
Laws and Smaller Precincts.


All day yesterday the principals to
the legislative contest between Matthew
Gross and S. P. Snider, with their attor-
neys, were engaged in taking testi-
mony in the shape of dispositions to be sub
mited to the legislature. The one thing
prominently developed was that the cleo
ton laws need revising very badly, and that
the precincts in Minneapolis are entirely
too large. The testimony showed that in
certain precincts the judges were on duty
forty hours, and could not tell, near the
close, whether two and two made five or
seven. If there were errors, and it seems
probable there were. they were the result
of the law and the size OF the precincts. 1t
was developed that the law was not obeved
III one single instance, as far as counting
the votes separately was concerned,
but that ''straights" were counted In
punches of % and 30 and ''splits" were
counted separately. As to the contest be-
tween Snider and Gross, nothing of i'm.
portance was developed. E. S. Gaylord.
of the Second precinct. Third ward. thought
Snider should have had a larger total. be-
cause he thought he was running ahead of
McGill. Another judge, both Republicans,
was OF the same opinion, as regarded an
other precinct. There has been seven ex-
amined out Of the twelve city precincts.
and the hearing was adjourned until Tues
day. The case for Snider is being con-

ALI SORTS.

Some of the Minneapolis saoonkeepers. if
they are correctly reported, must sell very
poor whisky. They Say that half of the grand
jurors who indicted them are regular ems
toners, and the inference is that they are
squaring themselves.
A. L. Ankeny-No grand jury can run the
municipal administration OF this city.
The Evening Duplicate saws there is s.such
unanimity in favor of police commission -
This unanamity consists of about eight men.
who have for years deceived themselves into
the belief that they could run Minneapolis.
They do run the Evening Duplicate, aye, and
the Morning Duplicate also, but the people
upset their back-office calculations at every
election.
G. l.. Locke-I confidently expect big war
within five years. 1t will be labor revolu-
Iion. Things are going from bad to worse.
and crisis is slowly coming.
The town of Minneapolis is about to go out
of existence, but it should be remem bered
that the city of Minneapolis is still thriving
like a green bay tree. which is nourished by
perennial showers of bay rum.
While the numerous indictments returned
by the grand jury were not probably made
for the explicit purpose of giving Sheriff
Bracket q boom, still it is likely that the
sheriff will realize largely from the fees re-
ceived during the past week.
The efforts that are being made by indiyid-
ual workingmen to raise the funds necessary
judged as energetic from the fact that one
man, Thomas McVeigh, has within the past
five days sold $1,000 worth Of stock in small
amounts to workingmen almost exclusively.

The council got down to a pretty HRaa
Quabble, last night, over a proposition to
pay a sum of money to Bethany home to
assist it in tding over a financial strait.
In the course of the row Aid. johnson,
who is always the political partisan OF the
body. made a lot of serious statements,
charging felony upon the members Of the
police force, but he afterward made
hasty and humiliating retTaction. a reSo-
luton was offered directing the payment OF
81. 600 to the home out of the uneXpended
money set apart for the cyclone Iund; II
it was opposed by several aldermen. headed
by johnson, en- the ground that the CITY
had no right to give this money, ana the
amount was reduced to $500. Several
aldermen made pleas for the home on the
ground that its revenue had been cut OH since
the fines were diverted from the houses OF
prostitution, which brought Aid. johnson
to his feet with the following:
Since this city has hada Democratic MAJOR
he has sent his police officers among these
houses and collected these fines and put the
money down in their pockets. The money is
not in the treasury, and where it is nobody
knows, but they got it. And that is why
Bethany home has no money.
AS soon as the words were out of his
mouth he said he had made mistake.
Aid. Mills scored him severely, saying he
did not believe the statements. and II he
did he would consider it his duty to at once
proceed to an Impeachment. This brought
johnson back on question OF privilege.
He retracted all that he had said that i'm
piled anything wrong; he did not mean to
accuse any officer of apprOpriating this
money. as he knew it had been offered to
the treasurer and deposited in bank. A
warm discussion ensued, in which charges
and counter charges were made against The
present and former administration. Finally
a proposition was made to rS. Il the money
until the legislature sanctioned II, but this
was regarded as childish and was defeated,
the original motion prevailing.
In regard to the money collected from
First street, it is converted into liquor
licenses as rapidly as the necessary sum is
Taised-a fact known to everybody inter
oSted.

Coal ShOvelers of the Milwaukee

The coal shovelers employed at the
yards of the Chicago, Milwaukee & st.
Paul railroad complain that their wages
have been reduced to S1.1O per day without
any reduction of the amount of work re-
quired to be performed by the shoveiers,
which is the handling of forty tons per day
per man. An appeal has been made to the
Trades and Labor assembly by the men,
who claim that they cannot earn living
wages. as is noted elsewhere. A CORE
spondent writes the GLOBE thus:
We cannot support our families upon such
little pay, and l do not think it would be
right to fall back upon the city for relief,

by fraud, was tried on the part of the
plaintiff before Judge Rea and dismissed,
as the facts in the case did not constitute

81. 1885, the defendants came to him and
informed them that his son, c. II. Barton,
had contracted debt of 500, and that he,
II. f. Barton, must pay it. or that his son
would be prosecuted on criminal charge.
The money was paid, but later on Mr.. Bar

and SO tried to recover the money.

CHICKEN CHOLERA.
A Disease Usually Due to the Filthy Com
dition of the Poultry Yard.

A Disease Usually Due to the Filthy Con-
dition of the Poultry Yard.
Why does the cholera break out in
those yards where the birds seem appar-
emily we'll when the disease is least ex-
pected? The question may be answered
in one word-filth. Suppose a dairy
man should keep his herd of cows in a
dirty stable, with foul odors ever pres
ent, damp floors and the manure re-
moved from the stalls only OCCASION
ally, with water to drink from mud
puddles, into which the soluble sub
stances of the manure had been washed,
would such COWS exist long? We think
not. And we may also ask if it would
not be even worse for them should the
food of the COWS be thrown on the drop
pings of the yard, to be mixed with the
filth and manure, if the consequences
would not be fatalp Yet such is the
way the hens are sometimes treated.
The droppings remain in the poultry
house for indefinite periods, they have
but little fresh water and often
none at all, and the yards in
which they run contain the ac-
foundations of years. The cholera
can not be avoided under such condi-
tions. It attacks every bird in the flock.
and holds high carnival over the bodies
of ITS victims. What is the remedy? Not
doctoring the birds, for that is useless
under the circumstances, but remove
the cause Thoroughly clean out the
poultry house and disinfect the roosts,
nests and walls by the free use of car
bolic acid and whitewash. and spade up
the yards, then sprinkling them with
Douglas mixture, which is composed of
o pound of copperas, a gill of sulphuric
acid and two gallons of water. If the
premises are kept clean there is but little
danger of cholera, but care must be
taken that no portion of the premises
be overlooked upon which any of the
germs may remain. The cholera may
be known by the sick birds being very
thirsty, and having an anxious, nervous
appearance, the droppings being green
and watery. The remedy most available
is to give % spoonful of a solution OF
boracic acid to each fowl.-F'arns. Field
and StocknaGn.
