CHANGE THE DAY.

On its face it looks to be a small thing to
complain of that the state fair management
should have fixed st. Paul day on the state
lair program on the same day that circus
S to be in the city, and that the singular
mistake should be made of fixing Minneapo-
is day when there is to be show up there.
But as human nature is the same here in
he Northwest as it is in other parts of the
world, the state fair management may
IS well look the situation squarely
n the face and prepare to meet it. The
Minnesota state fair is the finest agricul-
;ural exhibit ever known in the West. That
point is conceded. But that doesn't win
the case in opposition to a circus attraction.
If the garden of Eden was open to frae
exhibition on the same day that circus
tent was up the biggest part of
The crowd would go to see the circus.
That is fact which is not peculiar to
Minnesota or to the Northwest. 1t is true
wherever human beings exist, and has a
special application to the American con-
anent The seasons may come and go,
The seed time and harvest fail, but the love
Of the circus in American nature is per-
petual. To the average Americans way of
thinking, life without the circus would be
absurd. 1t may be very foolish element
In our American character, but it is
there all the same. 1t is one of those
things that can't be reasoned out of a peo-
pie. Earthquakes may shake the earth to
It's center, the fatal breath of the cyclone
may desolate the land. governments may
crumble and the very palladium of our
boosted liberty may fall, yet the average
American citizen would continue to patron
lie the circus just as if nothing had ever
happened. 1t is born in him. and he can't
help it, In the face Of all these facts it
might be wisdom for the state fair manage
ment to reverse the dates that have been
fixed for st. Paul and Minneapolis, and
give the people of both cities chance to
attend both the fair and the circus.

Lolita at the Grand.

Lolita, the inimitable, appeared at the
Grand opera, house last night in .'Musette, -
in which she assumed the titular role. From
her first appearance in the first act to the end
or the play she was pronounced faVorite
with the large audience in attendance. Her
cute little ways, her singing and her dainty
and original little kicks all seemed to be
very pleasing to the auditors and they ap-
plauded her at the slightest opportunity The
life and soul of the piece. her lines and stage
business were watched for with evident in
terest, and attention dropped when she was
out of sight.
She was in her happiest mood and appre-
citation of the reception accorded her. played
as only an actress can who feels that her
audience is with her. Twice at the end of
the first act she was recalled before the cur
tain and other recalls followed the curtain at
the end of other acts. The PLAY was made to
show OF Lolita and Lotta'S protean abilities,
and as such is success, although claiming
no merit either as a literary or dramatic pro-
duction. There is not much rofm for the
support to show to extraordinary advantage
in "Musette," yet there was enough to show
that the company is good
one and the members made the
most of their characters. In the second act
Mr.. p. A. Anderson as the venerable gypsy,
has chance to do some sood acting, and he
performs it in splendid manner. Harold
Courtney makes the ideal lover of Sir Hugh
Tracy; Fred Lennox provokes peals of laugh
ter at his grotesque attempts at love making,
while Mrs. Shepherd and Misses Mary May
penny and Julia Wheeler give creditable per-
sonations of their respective characters. The
same bill will be given tonight, M lie Nj
touche" Wednesday and Thursday and ''The
Little Detective Friday aud Saturday.
The cool weather brought out large crowds
at the Seventh street museum last night.
The attraction in the grand theater was the
opera 1.-THE Mlkado, rendered by the Juvenile
Opera company in an even and creditable
manner. On the upper stage the Rhineharts
gave pleasing vaudeville performance. The
bill runs the entire week.
"Enchantment' at the Olympic last night
made a great hit. The sceners was magnfi-
cent, the marches fine and the house well
filed. The play will doubtless have good
run during the entire week.

last evening it was decided to put water
closets in the Monroe. Madison and Jeffer-
son schools at cost of 81 in the first

Inspector Gilbert introduced a reso-
luton highly complimentary of Nj.
B. F. Wright, the retiring superin-
tendent, in which he briefly recited part
of his school history in ST. Paul and
thanked him for the solctude and interest he
had manifested in the welfare of our school
system. The resolution was adopted by a
rising vote. This was responded to by Mr.
Wright in a few brief remarks. Mr.. Curtis
from the committee on music made report
in favor of appointing G. II. Congdon
superintendent of music. He was elected
to the Office. but on vote being taken no
salary was attached and the whole matter
was thus ended in ridicule.

SARANAC INN, N. Y, Aug. 3O.-The
presidents party left Saranac inn this
morning for the upper lake region for a
few days, hunting and fishing in that remote
territory. With them went Col A. II.
Belo of the Galveston News and Harry W.

across the country awaited them. 1t is not
yet determined whether Mrs. Cleveland
and her mother will go into the woods or
await the return of the party at one of the
hotels ON the edge of the wilderness. In all
probability they will make the venture, as
Mrs: Cleveland has expressed desire to
rough it with the others. The party will
not return before the latter part of the
week. The guides took along Major"
the Scotch deer hound, famous old hunter
in this region, and other dogs will be pro-
cured for the chase. a score or more of
the guests at Saranac inn gathered at the
wharf and waved an adieu to the voyagers.
MI Nathan Straus of New York. who en-
tertained the president at his cottage on the
lower Saranac last year, called on Mr..
Cleveland just before his departure. The
party have gone beyond the reach of tele-
graphic communication, and may not be
heard from until their return.

HITCH YOUR HORSES.

The majority of runaways which occur
in the city are occasiened by the neglectful
leaving of horses standing unhitched. There
directs the fastening of all horses whose
drivers may leave them for however short a
time. This ordinance should be rigidly
enforced. 1t should be especially main
tanned during fair week, when the streets
are full of people and teams and the
dangers of accidents are therefore increased.
a law is worse than useless unless obedi-
ence to it is compelled, and that against the
careless leaving of horses unhitched. to-
gether with the twin evil of fast driving,
should be rendered at all times effective.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-The Nationa
Republican says:
That new government printer has beef
appointed was settled beyond dispute at thu
government printing office to-day, and tn,
employees expect to meet their new chief a
an early day. Mr.. Gilbert Benedict, brothe
OF the new public printer, arrived here to
day. AT noon he reached the printing office
presenting his credentials, made himself
known. and relieved Cadet Taylor as chic:
clerk of the office.Th change was considerable.
of surprise, as it was ncs supposed any
steps of this kind would be taken before thu
public printer had himself qualified ana
bonded. The bond is 100000, and there i.
no official information that Il bond has either
been offered or accepted. BY making the
change above mentioned before arriving in
the city, it is supposed that the public
printer is only mapping out a way to make
his acquaintance with the Office and it's dutiet
easier to secure. There is much uneasinesi
and trepidatioa among the employees.

THE STATE FAIR OPENING.

The Minnesota state fair had success
full opening yesterday. 1t was not only
successful for first day in respect to the
number of visitors. but was a success in the
character of the exhibit. Nobody ever
knew q fair or ali exposition to open with
everything in place and in complete readi-
ness Yesterday at the state fair came
nearer to state of completed preparations
than has ever before been seen at public
exhibition in this section. The extreme
hot weather had the cause of delay iii the
shipments of dairy products and conse-
quently there was little hardness in get
ting the dairy department into shape. For
some inexplicable reason the art gallery
mad not been prepared for opening,
but every other department was in
ship shape, not only ready with
its display, but making dis
play of which the people of Minnesota may
justly feel proud. There is nothing extrav-
agant in the statement that the live stock
display is the finest ever seen in the North
west. and possibly has never been surpassed
in the United States. 1t was the universal
judgment that last years display of live
stock at the Minnesota fair could not be
eclipsed. but this year beats last years
record little. particularly as regards the
cattle exhibit. There never was finer col
lection of thoroughbred beauties of Short
horns, Devons, Herefords, Holsteins, Jer-
seys, Polled Angus, and all the better
grades of cattle than is to be seen at the
Minnesota state fair. The horse display is
equally as attractive, while the sheep and
hog exhibit cannot be surpassed. All
of the capacious barns are filled to
the very last stall, and temporary
quarters have to be provided for
some that were unable to be accommodated
with stable room. Machinery hall is filled
with all the newest and most improved ma
chinery, while Agricultural hall presents
the most beautiful and artistic display of
the cereals that the world ever saw. 1t is
simply a marvel Of beauty. But the live
lest spectacle in the way of decorative art
Is in the main building. where the scene is
one ranscending in beauty and richness
that of an oriental bazaar. With such an
suspicious opening the success of this years
fair is assured beyond all possibility of
doubt. The people of Minnesota have am
pie cause for congratulation that they
adopted the idea of permanently locating
Ehe state fair association on its present site

MAKING A RECORD.
Contest at Fort Smelling for Places
ON the Department Team.

The second days shooting Of the ninety
four rfemen for places on the department
team, took place at Fort Smelling yesterday
and was greatly marred by the high wind
prevailing during the major part of the
time. Skirmishing was the order of the
day, Peacock. who led the first days fir
ing with III, picked up to-day only 26. and
Capt Boutelle caught only 10. This stroke
of ill-fortune practically drops them out of
the race, for the skirmish scores are counted
in the total OF the four days. There is a
strong feeling among the rifiemen that this
method of determining the best shots is
wrong. They claim that if one man is the
best skirmisher he should receive credit,

the start rowed rather snatchy stroke,
enabling Perkins, who had the best water,
to gain slight lead in the first few hun
