Last night several of the refugees returned
to their old haunts.
The complaints of deposits OF wildwood and
dirt on the bridges brings to MIND the imprac
ticability Of the new system, ADOPTED by the
city councillor the bridges being watched and
cared for by the regular street force instead
of confirming the bridge watchmen regularly
appointed by Mayor Ames, according to the
system always in vogue until the beginning Of
the present administration. Inc street force
cannot detail man specially to care for the
bridges, and ii such could be done it is ques-
tionable if it would be an economic measure.
True it may be polite on the part of Repub-
Ecan council but it is unsatisfactory to the
general public.
1t seems that the grand jury, which as
sumes to be an ultra reformatory institution
socially, more than anything else, disap-
proves of Mayor Ames' and Judge Bailey's
solution Of one of the most vexatiOus prob
lens the administration has to contend with.
The grand jury indicted Ida Dorsett for sell
ling liquor without license, despite the fact
She is credited with sum of money paid into
the city treasury onia saloon license. The case
will be tested, and the legality OF the measure
will be determined. By many it is main
tanned that neither OF the two indictments
found against er will hold. Her house had
been closed by the police, at the instance of
Mayor Ames, sometime before the grand
jury investigation, and she had paid her
monthly inStallInents on her liquor license,
according to police regulations.

THE DENTAL BANQUET.
A Large Attendance and Jolly
Good inle Experieuced


The fifth annual reunion of the Mime
apolis Dental society was held last evening
in the parlors of the Nicolet house. All
the dentists of St. Paul had been invited to
attend, and goodly number were present.
An informal reception was held before the
banquet and the members renewed
old friendships and discussed matters
pertaining to business. The Lake Park
orchestra was present, and during the
evening rendered the sweetest music.
About $50 the doors of the banquet hall
were thrown open and the members of the
society and the invited guests filed in to the
lively strains which foated in from the
lobby. The following gentlemen occupied
seats at the table:

bertly, Dillingham;, Jerman and Clark.
st. Paul-Drs. Goodrich, Gould, Dow, Par
rot, Green, Thompson, and Crittenden of
Northfed.
The banquet tables had been arranged in
the form of letter H, and on the cross
pieces reposed handsome mound of red
and white roses, the gift of M. L.. Higgins
OF Lake Calhoun. On the main tables
were handsome bouquets composed of SINH
lar flowers, and the whole formed picture
not soon to be forgotten. The repast was
an excellent one, and was served in cred
liable manner by the well-trained corps of
walters. Full justice was done the good
things, and nearly all the guests preserved
the menu cards as souvenirs. At the con-
clusion of the repast came the speeches which
were mainly short and brilliant. DR.. Mar
tindale officiated as postmaster. The
toast, ''Our Sister Society in St. Paul."
was responded to by DR.. l.. G. Gould of
st. Paul. His remarks were well received
Dentists as Factors in Civilization" was

Victims Of Grand Jury Research
Hauled Up to Answer.


The closing work of the grand Jury was
sustained, to say the least. and when Mary
E. Prentiss, George r. Tanner, Ida Dorsey
and Annie l.. Carson came into the court
room there was murmur of surprise from
many present. All had been arrested on
bench warrants, and were charged with
keeping designation houses, OF houses of ILL
fame. George r. Tanner pleaded not
guilty to the charge, and gave bonds Of
1000 for his appearance Monday, when

negro woman, and up to the 18th

ment by remarking in bitter tone:
=" Sarah Nightwork' is not my name, l
want You to understand" She will plead
this morning. Her bail was fixed at $500.

A Sort of Official Fishing Expedi-
ton.

Mayor Ames headed an interesting fish
ing expedition that left Minneapolis on the
$50 train last night. The Zenith City of
the unsalted seas was the objective point,
OF rather the trout streams adjacent thereto.
The party was made up of city officials and
their immediate friends. The commissary
department. was in charge of Aid. Sly and
Emil Ferrant, and the stock seemed almost
ineXhaustible. To-day will be spent in
tempting the pretty speckled trout to try
the fly, and the evening will be spent in the
Zenith City, the party being the guests of
the mayor Of the city. The Duluth and the
Northern Pacific Railway companies ex-
tended courtesies and provided every con-
venlence, contributing largely to the COM
fort and pleasure of the party. The follow
ing is the personnel: Mayor Ames, Com
missioner G. NJ. Foote. Aid. w. w. Sly,
Col. NJ. W. Glenn, Emil M. Ferrant, Esq,
James Noble, Maj. John Landberg, Adjt.

which Occasions an Erroneous Re
port Concerning the Police.

Thursday evening the place kept by Car
RE Moore at 119 Second street north was
closed by the mayor in response to a petit
ton signed by seyenty-two citizens. The
same evening deputy sheriffs called to arrest
the madam on an Indictment found against
her by the grand jury. The deputies found
the place guarded and claim they were re-
fused admission. Upon this slight founda-
ton there was a rumor that there was a
clash between the police and the sheriff.
Mayor Ames and the police state that no
application was made to them for assistance
in causing the woman's arrest, which they
would gladly have given. Further that if
they We're refused admission to the house it
was because the patrolmen did not know
they were in authority, or did not under
stand their duty. The police authorities
state that they will gladly assist the sheriff
whenever requested to do So

THE MOCK AUCTIONS.
The Police Keeping a Wary Eye on
Many Sharpers.

The police have been keeping a sharp
watch at the so-called mock auction stores,
where the rural sucker is induced by the
''capper" system to give up his money
either through the medium of mining stock
sales, bogus jewelry OF sundry other fakes.
The two places on Washington avenue
south, between Second and Third avenues,
have given the greatest trouble. One of
them, run by Levi, was recently closed up
by the police. Yesterday Chicago party
named Abrahams threw open the doors of
the place again and was. it is alleged, pre-
pairing to open up the same kind of a bust
ness. Col. Chase visited him
and gave strict orders that he
should not venture outside the
limits of legitimate business. 1t is reported
that several persons have been swindled at
these places, but as the dupes do not COM
plain. fearing exposure of their foolishness,
the police cannot do more than to exercise
a strict guard to prevent the ranks of suck
ers from swelling too rapidly with fresh re-
cruits.
