The Sinking of the Oregon.

The pilot boat and the small boats had left
the sinking ship with heavy loads Of human
freight, having about one hundred persons
aboard. The steamer was settling lower each
minute, the prom being much lower than the
stern, and IL seemed that each moment was 10

cOnvulsive CULVER preparatory TO the maj
plunge. This was an exceedingly trying mo
ment. There were no life preservers. as the
heavy sea had carried them overheard. stand
ing rather apart from the other passengers,
was a beautiful girl whose terrified face de-
picted the horro.s of the fearful experience.
A tall, handsome young man stood beside her
with HIS arm tenderly encrcling her slender
waist. He was evidently trying to comfort her
with hopes of rescue: but the sweet creature
saw to plainly that unless something unlocked
for should occur they would soon lie at the
bottom of the great ocean, far away from
sweet home and dear friends. The young fel-
low was about to tell his sweetheart that they
were lost when one of the sailors raised a loud
cry, and looking over the bow of the boat the
passengers saw something dark standing out
toward them, and as the vessel drffted little
nearer, all saw that il was great sign hang
ing suspended to something, and upon the sign
vera these words: Emerson holds the bridge
to help the folks over" and in few minutes
they all stood safely upon old mother earth
They all shook hands with Uncle Emerson"
and many of them accepted the assistance he
offered as they had lost all their effects on the

BOARD OF TRADE.
Bringing Navigation To the FalIs---
Railroads 10 he Looked After.

At the meeting of the board of trade yes
terday morning there was fair attendance
of directors. j. B. BasSett. chairman of
the committee on water power and naviga-
ton, reported so far as any appropriations
made by congress are available for the i'm
provement Of the Mississippi river between
Minneapolis and st. Paul, it is doubtful if
the appropriations can be of any practical
use The tract of 200, 600 acres of land APP
prOprated twenty years ago for the pur-
pose of building lock and dam near Meek
er's island lies in the same condition that it
was when appropriated, with the exception
that much of the valuable land has been
taken up by railroads and private parties.
The situation is as follows: The dam will
cost 81, 600, 900; 200, 900 iacres and SIS, 600
have been granted. Ii is not probable that
anything will be accomplished unless the
grant can be increased to somewhere near
the estimated cost of the improvements
required. 1t is most desirable that the
river should be made navigable, so that
boats can approach very near the great
mills Two methods are suggested: First,
to construct a lock and dam of sufficient
height to make the water of suitable
depth for steamboats, to be worked success
fully; second, to dredge out the bed of the
river to produce the same results.
When it is taken into consideration that
there lies north and west of us a territory
whose direct route to the Eastern markets
and great commercial cities is through the
valley of the Mississippi; territory that
before another decade. will contain vast
population, the Importance of improving
the river from this point to the ocean will
be apparent. The report was accepted.
Will E. Steele, from the committee on the
excursion to the ice carnival at st. Paul, re-
ported that the chamber of commerce, city
council and the various military companies
and tobogganing clubs have appointed COM
mittees and in connection with the citizens
will participate in grand excursion next
Thursday, leaving both depots at 7:3O p. m.
On this day (Monday) the various commit
tees and toboggan clubs will participate in
the opening exercises at st. Paul.
At this point the board went into dis
oussion of manufacturing and railroad ques-
tons. The usual rule of suppressing the
newspaper reports was enforced, and moth
ing was given out for publication with the
exception that special committee was ap-
pointed to act in conjunction with similar
committees from the chamber of commerce
Jobbers' union and Millers' association in
an effort to obtain from certain railroad,
recognition which Minneapolis deserves as
a milling and commercial center.

THE COUNCIL COMMITTEES.
They Audit Bills aMd Decide Upon
Various Recomn m, endatiOns.


The standing committees of the city
council met yesterday and prepared bust
ness for the Wednesday night session of the
council.
George Eastman and others requested the
committee on roads and bridges TO take ac-
ton regarding covering the suSpen-
sion bridge with snow or ice surface to
facilitate traffic, but nothing definite was
determined upon. The East side people
complain that the salt used by the street
railway company impairs the sleighing on
the bridge.
w. w. Parker and others appeared be-
fore the committee to ask the vacation of
Twenty-nine-and a-half street between Six
teenth and Eighteenth avenues south. the
property owners agreeing to donate land for
streets through their block to Lake street;
that is, for Sixteenth, Seventeenth and
Eighteenth avenues.
The committee on gas audited bills as did
the committees on claims, police and public
grounds and buildings.
The committee on fire department de-
cided to recommend that fire engine. one
hose truck and hook and ladder truck be
placed on runners as an experiment. and
also that the appointments of men for the
Oak Lake station and for the Cataract hook
and ladder truck be made permanent. They
will recommend the purchase of five addi
tional fire hand eXtinguishers.

THEY WILL SEPARATE.
A millionaire Lum b erman of Minue-
apOlis TO be Sued for Divorce.

There have been recent rumors that ii.
L. Gordon, the welI-known lawyer and lum
herman, and his wife have separated, and
that an action is shortly to be commenced
for divorce by Mrs. Gordon. They were
married in December, 1878. and have since
lived in an elegant residence at the corner
of Stevens avenue and Seventeenth street
south. The marriage was something of
surprise at the time it occurred. Mr.. Cor
don's daughter. Ada. had just been married
to DR.. A. Ii. Hedderly, when. at the close
of the ceremony. Mr.. Gordon stepped for
ward with the remark that there Knight as
well be another wedding and introduced his
hOusekeeper as his fiancee. The marriage
Las evidently been an unhappy one. and
now, after six years, during which two
children have been born to them, the parties
have decided to separate. Mrs. Gordon
states that in seeking divorce she will only
make charges sufficient to obtain the custody
of the children. Mr.. Gordon declines TO
say what his course will be. but it is under
stood will not oppose the action. 1t is also
understood that he is inclined TO deal liber-
ally with his wife in regard TO the amount
of alimony to be allowed her.
II. l.. Gordon is one of the prominent
men of the city and state and is very
wealthy. having been a leader in politics as
well as in business matters.

THE EXPOSITION.
A Resolution TO storm the Ice Pal
ace Adopted.

ace A0OptC0s
The directors of the permanent exposl-
ton had short session and talked over
business matters. A large number OF COM
munications were received from would-be
exhibitors, making inquiries relative to
space, conditions, ETC., and among them
was a firm which proposes to put IN ma
chinery for the manufacture of silk goods
TO be operated in the building. They were
referred. -,
Samuel F. Pray communicated his will
ingness to donate 81, 500 in case his sub
scription for So, 600 be released. The opln-
ion of the directors was to the effect that
they had no right to release any subscriber.
Referred to the finance committee.
The secretary reported that OF the sub
scribers 467 names nad not yet been re-
ported and they represent 500. 440 in stock.
Mr.. Bracket said he had over $4,000, and
others reported moneys subscribed,
materially reducing the amount,
The chairman was directed to appoint, at
some future time, a committee OF three to
investigate the matter of collecting the re-
maining subscriptions, and also of securing
official signatures.
Mr.. Regain, in this connection, thought
some one should call upon the street rail-
way company, and also upon the railroads
who will be benefited by the exposition.
He thought they should be largely inter
ested in the project, but they have not yet
subscribed cent to the stock. This was
referred to the same committee.
The matter of established rules was the
subject of desultory discussion which
lasted for half hour. Regan opposed
awarding premiums on the ground that
small exhibitors would be 10th to coming
here with the expectation that the big exhib-
itors would carry off all the honors.
o. A. Pray thought that each exhibitor
should pay for each foot of space occupied.
The exhibitors will all take orders and dc
a general mercantile or manufacturing bust
ness. They will come to Minneapolis with
a view to making money, and should pay.
The finance committee reported that
Sc, 900 had been loaned at Z per cent. in
terest.
Upon motion of C. NJ. Palmer, a resolu-
ton was adopted to the effect that each
member should attend the storming OF the
ice palace, and that, if successful, the
trophies should be brought for exhibition in
the crystal palace.
