Park Church Concert.

A concert was given at Park Congrega-
tional church last evening for the benefit of
the ladies' fund, and was attended by large
number of the residents of the hill and the
music-lovers of the city generally. Some of
the best musical talent of the city was en-
listed and the audience attested its apprecia-
ton of the exceptional skill displayed by re-
peated and enthusiastic encores Among the
best received numbers were the piano solos
by the blind pianist, Madame Constance
Heine Mozarra, who made her first appear
ance in this city. This young lady, who has
quite recently located in St. Paul. has been
a resident of Minneapolis for about year
and has high reputation. Miss Blanche
Smith rendered two vocal solos and Paul
Stoeving was at his best with his familiar
violin. Mr.. G. G. Titcomb acted as accam-
PIANIST. The affair was a success financially.

LoNG-ReBgENS CASE.
A Legal FONT 10 be Argued Before
the City Fathers.

the City Fathers.
The contest for the seat of the Seventh
ward alderman between Mr.. Long and Mr..
Robbins will be argued by the attorneys for
these gentlemen before the council this
evening. This is not an ordinary case of
contested election, the point at issue being
not which of these gentlemen received the
most legal votes, but whether there was
any legal election of alderman in that ward
Mr.. Long claims trat his election year
ago was for a term of two years. but Mr..
Robbins claims that the term was for but
one year. and that the election this spring
was legally ordered. The case will be
argued by W. p. Warner. for Mr.. Long,
and by II. J. Horn, for Mr.. Robbins. The
point at issue is purely a legal one. An
act Of the legislature, passed in 1876, di-
vided the city into aldermanic districts. and
arranged the terms that about half the
number of aldermen should be elected each
year, for n two-years' term. To give the
scheme proper start, the act provided that
those aldermanic districts numbered with
odd numbers should elect aldermen in
1886 for one-year terms, and that the
even numbered districts should elect
for two years term. In 1885 the CITY
limits were extended so that more districts
were necessary and the Seventh ward made
one aldermanic district A new aldermanic
district was also created in the Sixth ward.
numbered L." and one in the Fifth ward.
numbered So" AS this law said nothing
about the length of the first alderman's
term, Mr. Long claims that it is the regular
aldermanic term of two years. But THE city
authorities ordered an election which on
the face of the returns gave Mr.. Robbins
the seat. Therefore. he claims that Mr..
Longs term was only one year and that all
the odd-numbered districts should elect the
same year. 1t is purely question of con-
STRUNG the act of 1885 IN connection with
the one of 1876. If the election in the
Seventh ward should be declared invalid it
would have some effect in changing the
terms III the other two new districts, so it
is said.

IRE EFT SAYINGS.

Andy Call stands over six feet I'D in the
air, and is one of the best policemen on the
force, but his knowledge of flowers is not in
keeping with his length and breadth. Andy's
wife is fond of plants, and his home on West
Seventh street has the air and appearance
of a florists. AS AMY was going home a
few days ago he saw Il box on the sidewalk in
front of a Seventh street store. In the box
was thrifty green plant. - A new kind of a

The Old Settlers association has q seal on
which is craven what was thought BY the
originators an appropriate device. 1t repre-
sents a man, alone and old, walking in a grave
yard, where tombstones are numerous and
where the only living thing in sight is the man
who walks over the ground where his fellows
have long since been laid to rest. 1t is a pic
ture of the last man of the pioneers of Min
nesota, his co-laborers dead and himself OF all
left on earth to tell the story of how the state
was built to living generations. OF course he
is supposed to be a forlorn individual. At one
of the meetings OF the old settlers this picture
on the seal was the subject
of discussion. One or two of
the white-haired veterans were inclined to
express sympathy for the lone man, and the
opinion was expressed that such fate as was
pictured was too hard; it was cruel to infict
on any of their number a lie among the
tomhs when all old associates were gone But
Gov. Ramsey was disposed to look more
cheerfuliy on the picture and said he saw no
occasion for tears Gentlemen he said,

not let US waste our sympathy. will relieve

Memorial Day.

Sunday, the 30th ult. was observed in
this village by holding union services at the
NJ. Z. church, in which all the pastors of
our churches, including Rev. Higgins, the
evangelist, participated. The services were
attended by the members of Brodhead Post
in uniform, and were very interesting. The
church. which was elegantly decorated for
the occasion, was crowded to its utmost
capacity, many being unable to gain an
entrance. The music rendered was of high
order. while the several addresses were lis
tened to with rapt attention. Elder Russell
and Mrs. Barton each read poem prepared
for the occasion which, If we can procure
copies, we shall publish in our next issue.
Monday morning at ten o'clock, details
having decorated ths graves of fallen COM
rades in the surrounding cemeteries, the
members of Brodhead Post of this village
and j. l.. Hudson Post of Mattawan, assem-
bled at the armory whence with solemn
steps and slow, preceded by the Young
Alerts Band, they marched to the beautiful
Prospect Hill Cemetery, where, around the
grave of comrade Hudson. the beautiful and
solemn service of the grand army was I'M
pressiveiy rendered and the last resting
place of all comrades who are sleeping there
were decorated with flowers. Returning to
town the boys disbanded for dinner, and at
two o'clock. having reformed they marched
to the NJ. +. church where Rev. DR.. Hunt
ing delivered one of the finest orations ever
listened to by Paw Paw audience. No
words of commentator could do it Justice
and we will not attempt the task. The
church was filled to the brim " and the
exercises were made all the more interesting
by excellent instrumental and vocal music.
1t was remarked on all sides that the entire
services, both Sunday and Monday, were the
most interesting and successful ever held
here. 70 the glee club and the other sing
ers and players, to those who furnished such
a lavish display of flowers for the occasion,

selves, but in behalf of the memory of their
deceased comrades. return their sincere and

Monday, May oath, was q very pleasant
day in Almena, and, at the house of Mr.. and

elsewhere, for they had gathered together

All their living children, seven in number,
were present, and five grandchildren. There
were no costly gifts but many mementoes as
tokens of regard. Mr.. and Mrs. Burns live
in the same home in which they commenced
welded life, although it has undergone the
changes that time and necessity required.
Their tables were plentifully spread with the
bounties God had given them, and in every
way 1t was very pleasant time.

The managers of the second annual spring
meeting were somewhat disappointed in the
result of their venture. The attendance was
small and the financial outcome not very
fiattering to the society.
Aside from the horse department, the best
display was in the line of agricultural imple
ments, wagons and carriages of which there
was large and very fine exhibit. Our home
exhibitors were Messrs. G. w. Young /. b.

and II. w. McCabe. Almost every imagin-
able kind of farm machinery was shown.
Among the principal attractions were two
threshing machines, and traction engines
accompanying them. One was the Advance"

the brilliant success that its promoters had
hoped to see.

Drowned.

A sad accident occurred last Friday after
noon about five o'clock. Jennie Null, a
little girl of eight years, whose parents live
near the old Phoenix mill site was playing
by the race just back of the house, and in
some manner not known, fell in where the
water was about six feet deep. Being ac-
companied by only two little brothers, aged
respectfully two and four years, there was
no one to assist her, and when the frighten-
ed children succeeded in giving the alarm it
was too late. Though appearances indicated
that she had not been long in the water,
still every effort to resuscitate the drowned
child proved unavailing. The funeral was
held on the following day at the First Bapt-
ist church.
