THREE DAm1GE SUITS.
DR.. Hunter Vindicated--A News.
paDer TriaI..A Xerdict Reduced.

DIR. Hunter Vindicated.-A News
paper TriaI--A Verdict Reduced.
The libel suit of Anton Hoffner VS.. Igna-
titus Gutzwiller, publisher of the Delano
Eagle, is now in progress before Judge
Koon. June the defendant roasted" the
plaintiff in his paper, calling him ''rowdy"
and an ''eX-Hennepin county jailbird." For
this IS. 600 damages is asked. The evil
dence introduced by the defense tends to
show that the article was substantially
true; that March 6, 1884, the plaintiff was
arrested on charge of bastardy preferred
by Kate Dronck and in default of bond
went to jail for time, which is not speci-
fled as to length; further that the defend
ant does not possess a good name and can
not suffer In reputation by any of the state
ments complained of. The plaintiff denies
all the accusations and the testimony is
principally upon the question of his charac-
ter. Trial will be resumed this morning.
The trial of the suit of Henry Honbie VS..
DIR. c. II. Hunter to recover $40, 900 for
alleged malpractice was resumed yesterday
morning before Judge Young and was
given to the jury at IL o'clock. Within
thirty minutes a verdict for the defendant
was returned. The suit of Hills Bros. of
New York VS.. S. d. Hast & Co., commits

the court. The plaintiffs seek to recover
81, 140 for oranges furnished, which the
defendants claim were of an inferior quality
and only worth 500.
A VERDICT CUT DOWN.
Judge Lochren yesterday filed an order
in the suit of Saeger johnson, admin
istrator, vs. The Minneapolis Street Rail
way company, granting a new trial unless
the plaintiff agrees to waive all damages
above $500. thus cutting down the amount
of the verdict against the defendant corpora
ton from 81, $50. The plaintiffs daughter,
years old, was run over by a street car in
South Minneapolis, and the court holds that
neither the question of grief nor the notion
of Furnishing the defendants can be con-
sidered in the matter of damages, which Is
restricted to the question of the pecuniary
value of the child's future services. The
statute contemplates especially the COM
pensation of widows, children and de-
pendent parents, and does not apply with
full force to a case like this, where young
child is killed which might never have
grown up to usefulness.

A WINTER CARNIVAL.
The ExhiIarating sport of TobOg.
gaming Enjoyed TO the Utmost.


gaming Enjoyed TO the Utmost.
Minneapolis was emphatically winter
city last night and its people showed their
determination to extract all possible enjoy
ment from the rigorous winter climate.
Five different togoggan slides were in full
operation and the scenes wgre highly sug-
gestive of Montreal in its palmy days. The
center of toboggaing is on Lowry hill,
where two of the largest series of slides are
located. Approaching the hill from Cen
trail park the sight is particularly beauti-
full one Long rows Of electric lights bring
the slides brilliantly into view, while the
swish Of the togoggans and the chime of
merry laughter float distinctly through the
air. Running in opposition to the tobOg-
gans are several bob-sleds, but shedding has
not the charm of novelty and there is the
work OF hauling the sleds up the hill, which
destroys the romance of the sport, the to-
goggans being hauled up by steam.
The sport is certainly exhilirating. The
beginning of the slide is a very steep de-
scent to give the necessary impetus and the
toboggan starts off in very business-like
style There is a rush, musical swish
along the snow, brisk blizzard about the
ears and the toboggan is 100 feet down the
decline, Swimming meTTily along with a
swift motion through the keen. crisp air
that acts like champagne on the senses.
And then there is the merry chatter and the
gay laugh, good-natured sallies and raillery,
to say nothing of the ladies with their neat
costumes and faint little screams as they
are swiftly borne away. The slide is very
brilliant with electricity and the night with
out seems to enclose the space with dense
wall. which only lends additional attractive
ness.
Last night several members of the Mime
apOlis TOboggan club turned out in their
nobby uniforms and were initiated into the
mysteries of the sport. Tonight the Wa
couta club of ST. Paul will come over and
be the guests of the Minneapolis club in a
tobogganing frolic.

GEMS OF ART.
Fine Paintings and Engravings Ex-
libiled hY the Fine Arfs Snciatu

hibifed by the Fine Arts Society.
The first loan exhibition of 1886 by the
Society of Fine Arts is now under way and
upon it depends. in certain sense, the
success of future exhibits. This one is i'm
the line of an experiment, and if properly
supported by the public, will lead to others
upon more extended scale. A swift ride
ON the elevator in the Loan and Trust COM
pany building lands the passenger on the
sixth floor, where he is ushered into the
two comfortable rooms secured for the use
of the society. Thirty-one paintings and
engravings are hung-nOt large number,
but each one is gem and the society makes
a point of reducing the number and main
tanning the high standard of work. The
pictures are loaned by the Chicago Art in
stitute (2), Mr.. Mannheimer of st. Paul
Q4, Clinton Morrison (S) and Capt. S. p.
Snider "a. The ends of the room are occu-
pied by large oil painting each, by which
the connoisseur would never pass hurriedly
Both are American work, the artists having
been of the French school. One is The Be-
heading of John the Baptist, by Charles
Bprague Pierce, and the other The Anna
teurs, by Alexander Harrison. They are
from the Chicago art institute. The Mann
heimer pictures are all gems, and were col
lected by Mr.. Mannheimer during his trav-
els through Europe. Most exquisite is
Baumgartuer's Engaging for the Dance.
which is beautiful for the rare coloring.
William Schute's Wounded Duck exhibits
the same exquisite colors. Cattle pieces by
Fir. Voltz, HobeDshaden, e. j. Verbockho-
ven and the Russian landscapes by Piotrow-
ski and Kowalsky are among the finest
shown, and the works of all of these paint
ers are eagerly sought by collectors Two
especially fine geure paintings, the work of
Fir. Defregger and Kosperides, respectively,
are shown. Small paintings by Vibert, the
great easel painter. Carl Hespfer,
Mossani, Jean Jacquet and RosentEal
complete the really superb collection.

EXCHANGE LOGS.
Lumbermen Trying TO Clean Up Acc

LumDermen trying 10 Clean u p Ace
cOuntS--The Prices Proposed.
A largely attended meeting of the Lum-
bermen's exchange was held last evening
for the purpose Of arriving at definite
basis upon which an exchange of logs can
be effected, the intention being to clean up
all log accounts as promptly as possible. A
long discussion was had upon the subject,
and numerous grievances as resulting from
the present system, or rather lack of sys-
TEN, were raised. 1t was unanimously
agreed that it would be impractcable and
unfair to adopt one price to apply to all
logs and resolution was offered to fix the
value on all logs of four or less to the thou
sand at $3.50 per thousand; to TO the
thousand, $3.50; TO TO the thousand,
$3.50; to z to the thousand, So; z to to
the thousand, 1915; or more to the thou
sand, $3.50.
1t was decided not to act upon the mo-
ton. but to hold another meeting Friday
evening, in order to give the matter still
further consideration.
