HEARD IN THE HEAT.

The fat convention at the dime museum
gets double pay as long as the thermometer is
above 80.
Billy Wilson says he will beat the reveille
on Patsy Cardf's nose when he gets him in
st. Paul next Friday.
1t was only necessary to say ''cyclone''
yesterday afternoon to send half the popula-
ton of Minneapolis to their cellars.
Some of the sleepy papers of Minneapolis
discovered, after reading yesterdays GLOBE,
they had healthy case of smallpox in the
city.
The cost to the Exposition of the Mexican
band OF sixty three pieces, at prices quoted,
would be nearly $50, 600 for two months. They
come high but we must have them.
1.-The only thing that progresses this kind
of weather." said r. B. Forrest, ''is the Al
gonquin club, and it is booming" "Bet your
boots, corroborated George Jacoby.
Ii there was single man, outside of the
clergy, who did not attend Friday nights
smuggling match it could not be ascertained.
Everybody talked volubly of it.
Hermann WeStphal and Capt. Babb forgot
their ancient grievances yesterday, in the de-
mand for ice, and fell on each others necks
and smiled, The sun actually laughed.
w. E. Burwel put on his thin clothes and
hied himself to the cool hooks about the
Breezy Point club house. ''Not many people
out yet he said, shut this weather will fetch
them"
Yesterday morning when the manager of
the Tribune discovered there was a case Of
smallpox, Of which the paper contained no
mention. he issued the customary order:
| Roast the administration.
Supt. Tousley delivered no touching fare
well to the teachers yesterday morning, but
allowed them to grab their envelopes and de-
part in peace. 1t is just possible Mr.. Tous-
ley, omitted the farewell for fear some school
mar m might say ''rats.'
Willie E. Haskell, the Boston manager of
the Tribune, has committed the care of the
paper to A. ]. Bletheu and other subordi-
mates, and is practicing at Minnetonka with
patent Racine steam yacht. He will return
when the heat moderates.
There are rumors of trouble in the Algon-
quin club. The manner in which George
Jacoby was laying down the law to President
S. L. Ankeny last evening in the mayors
private office last night gives credence to the
report. Col. Glenn, Mayor Ames, Chairman
Robert L. Kelly were present in the capacity
of vilers of the troubled waters-Tribune.
''With the exception that there is no trouble
in the Algonquin club, that President Ankeny
was not in the mayors Office and that did
not lay down the law to him, this item may
be correct" said George JacObV

terday the sun appeared to realize that the
signal service had announced the coming of
cooling Zephysr. and made the most of its
time. The sky was cloudieSS up to 4
o'clock. and not a breeze was stirring.
The heat became intense, and the city
sweltered. At 2 o'clock the thermometer
indicated 96o above zero OH the shady
side of First avenue south. Those
whose avocations compelled them to
work out of doors suffered greatly. Later
in the afternoon the sky grew darker and
the streets were famed by breeze, but so
gently that its presence was hardly notice
able. With the approach of evening relief
came in the shape of Minnesota night and
poor humanity got a rest.
THE VICTIMS.

Scandinavian vyorkingmen.

The Scandinavian Workingmens union held
large and interesting meeting at Market
hall last night. An interesting mixed pro-
gram had been prepared, and, with few
changes, was rendered. The speeches were
interspersed with music by mixed chorus,
violin solo by Mr.. Guldbrandsen, tenor solo
by Mr.. Hort and duet by Messrs. Hjcrt and
Askeand. Judge Lars M. Rand was called
out and made very pleasing address, saying
he was proud of the stand his countrymen
had made on the labor question. He was
glad to see them abreast of American organ
izations and he knew none were truer in
spirit to the labor idea, stronger in number
Or more honest in purpose. He urged them
to join the Knights of Labor and use their
own organization as cooperative means of
advancement. 81 have reason to believe"
he concluded, ''these countrymen of mine in
America will gain for themselves the brilliant
credit, for the advancement of labor, that
they were in the age Of chivalry." Gerhard
Gjertsen and Samuel Backer each made adj
dresses and at the end of the program the
evening was devoted to social enjoyment.
