SUPERB FERMENTATION
Of s'COmedy of ErrOrs,' by the Rob.
son 81 Crane Company.

Undoubtedly the finest accessories Min
neapolis ever saw were those to the Com
edy of Errors" in which Robson S Crane
last night opened a weeks engagement at
the Grand. Much was promised in this re-
vival, and much was given, and undoubt-
eddy the audience was delighted with what
it saw as much as with what it heard. Not
seat was vacant when the curtain rose,
and the foyer was well crowded with the
occupants of the standing room only"
Much could be written. in praise of the pre-
sentation and very little against it, the lat
ter being summed up in the noise, perhaps
unavoidable, made in arranging the gor-
geous settings, while lines were being
spoken in the front. Everything possible
that could impart realism to the comedy
was given. The scenery was gorgeous and
superb, and by the most careful at
tentiOn te every detail of dress,
dTapery' and setting scenes were
presented as nearly historically correct as
possible. The odeOn, or court. the street
scenes, the gynaceum, or ladies' apartment,
the home of Antipholus, the palace of
Phryne, and the melancholy vale were all
beautifully and realistically presented. That
they were appreciated was evident in the
applause which greeted every change.
Ihe comedy was put on IN good style and
the inimitable comedians scored an old-time
success. They were never more happily
cast than in Comedy of Errors" and have
surrounded themselves with good company
of Interpreters. Great was the exhibition
of taste in not forcing the DrOmios into
greater prominence than Shakespeare in
tended and yet in bringing about a perfect
harmony of whole. 1t is a pleasure to
speak words of commentator in such a
case, and Minneapolis should give steady
support, throughout the week, in recogni-
ton of grateful change in the amusement

thought the reporters should be allowed to
attend from the fact that their presence is
usually tolerated and as there is nothing to
conceal, There was no second to the mo-
ton, however, although Rev. +. j. Wagner
and several others afterwards expressed
themselves as adverse to the star chamber
mode of procedure. Several of the pastors
took the reporters to task and administered
to them what is commonly termed roast
ing.n Rev. S. V. S. Fisher expressed his
mind quite freely about the inaccuracy of
the Tribune reports, and said the paper
should send competent men TO report the
pastors meeting. DR.. Campbell thought
this rather unjust, and felt that the report
ers were being rather harshly treated. Mr.
Fisher said he might have been little
hasty, and regretted that he had spoken
so warmly. Rev. Mr.. Service of Red Wing
said he had once heard the conundrum,
Why are reporters like caterpillars? The
answer was mot as was confidently eX-
pected by the reporters present--because
they are miserable, crawling, creeping
thlngs) because they prey upon every
thing green" This pleasantly caused con-
siderable mer-iment and after one or two
others had expressed chilling indifference
as TO whether newspapers existed at all, the
meeting closed with prayer.
ONE HUMOROUS INCIDENT
cropped out during the discussion. Dr.
Hovey commended the tone of the papers
in criticsing the introduction of the ballet
in the operas presented by the Mapleson
Italian opera company. "And l under
stand. too" said he, THAT several minis
tiers witnessed the immodeSt spectacle"
IF there is any one here who attended
the opera let him answer" said c. w. Mer-
rill.
DIR. Hovey then went on to dilate upon
the Inconsistencies of church-going people
in attending such performances.
but. tell u.s. DOCTOR" slyly put in DIR.
Campbell, Ibid that young woman really
dispOrt herself as the newspapers describe. !"
II wasn't present, sir" stammered
DR.. Hovey. bluShing turiously, while a
chorus of laughter went up from the pastors
at his evident confusion.
Upon the recommendation Of Rev. Fisher
committee was appointed to see if some
method could not be devised for informing
ministers whether parties who desire 10 be
married have been divorced.

Since then Crane has grown obese and Rob-
son has fallen away; the consequence Is,
Robson has to load himself down with pads
to meet Cranes size. His clothing and
pads weigh nearly as much he does Crane
has also to initiate the peculiar little squeak

A. j. Blethen says he feels exceedingly
sore because he. was not shown the plans
by /. Hodgson FOR the exposition before the
building committee agreed upon MIR. Hodg-
son for architect. Mr.. Blethen took Occa-

mittee's hair out by the roots. He charged

not propose TO sit there like school-boy

Pray. Il feel sore" said he, with the fire
OF indignation flashing In his eyes, and with
his brawny fists clenched. because the
committee did not show US these plans. AS
a member of this board l had right TO see
them, and to pass my Judgment upon their
merits. The committee has made grave
mistake in selecting the Hodgson plans. l

a request that they be returned. They
were returned, but were handed over TO the
Journal, and you ali saw what the result

HE GOT THE CHILD
Rut Not the Wife, Who Now Wants
a Divorce.

j. II. Reid of this city is expected to ar
rive from Cincinnati this morning. bringing
his daughter Hazel, child of years.
Upon his arrival it is further expected he
will be defendant in an action for divorce.
and perhaps have also habeas corpus case
to defend. Seven years ago he married
Miss May Withers. charming Cincinnati
belle, but the union was an uncongenial
and unhappy one and husband and wife
separated. after several domestic troubles,
but were reunited and an armistice pro-
claimed. Again they separated and Mr..
Reid came to Minneapolis to live two
months ago. Since then he has been en-
deavoring to induce his wife to come here.
and finally prevailed upon his father, DR..
Reid. 70 go to Cincinnati and bring her.
The doctor went and made arrangements
but the wife abandoned the idea at the last
moment. Last Wednesday Reid started
for Cincinnati, reaching there Friday night.
The next day he went TO the home of his
father-in-law, on Walnut hills. No one
was at home but little Hazel and her grand
mother. Reid seized the child, hurried her
into carriage that was waiting outside and
drove rapidly away. He took the first train
north, and is expected here to-day. The
sequel remains TO be told.

NOTHING NEW.
The Vexed Motor Question still I'm
Statu Quo.

There were no developments in the vexed
motor matter yesterday and probably will
not be until the executive committee shows
its hand. 1t is considered unfortunate that
Mr.. Washburn's trip was necessary just at
this time, though the committee has about
abandoned all idea of results from his sense
OF justice and fair play and have deter
mined To resort TO other means. There is
no politics in the motor in the Eighth
ward. Tor any candidate on an anti-motor
platform could not muster a corpOrals
guard about him. Mr.. Small said yester-
DAY they would give the best service posi-
BILE with horses in the interim and push on
the work on the electric motors in Chicago.
The only thing new in the matter yester-
day were the new eXecrations heaped by
debated Eighth and Seventh warders upon
the devoted head of Mr.. Washbun. But
hard words break no bones. Action is
what is wanted.

Adopting Additions.

The city council committee on streets,
grades and additions yesterday voted to
recommend the adoption of the following
additions to the city of Minneapolis:
Roberts addition, William Bernstern's
addition, Joseph p. Tibbett's addition and
Penn Avenue addition.
A plat of Saratoga Springs addition was
also presented, but owing to its being put
in at late hour it was not recommended.
However, there is probably no reason to
think that it will be rejected, inasmuch as
il conforms to the grades and the streets.
Saratoga Springs addition is located out on
Superior avenue, near Western avenue, and
near the Glenwood Springs.

THE EIGHTH WARD.
The Coming Garden Spot of the City
for Residences.

There is no portion of Minneapolis that
has developed with such unexampled rap
idity, or before which lies such future, as
before the present Eighth ward territory.
Lying in the direction in which the city
must and naturally will grow, it presents
every attraction to the buyer of land and
builder OF homes. and in two more years
will have become so large that it will be
necessary to subdivide it into two wards.
geographically it presents two beautiful
plateauX or tables one on either side of
Nicollet avenue, which will eventually be-
come the garden spot of the city. when its
growth shall have forced residences out
to make room for the business center. No
more beautiful land exists than that long
level tract running south 10 the hills of
Minnehaha and bordering Lake Harriet on
the west, in the center OF which stands the
new Bethany home; its only counterpart is
on the other side of Nicollet, with Stevens
avenue running through the center, with
the new children's home on the beginning
of the tract The day is not far distant
when all of this territory will be thickly
settled-only very few years TO those who
remember how, four years ago, they drove
through wheat fields from Dorilus Morri-
sons straight TO Lake Calhoun.

The council committees on gas. fire de-
partment, workhouse, police and claims and
accounts did nothing yesterday but audit
bills. The committee on roads and bridges
looked at the plat of the proposed opening
of Sixteenth and Seventeenth streets to
Lake street, but took no action. The COM
mittee on health and hospitals had Charles
Wits old slaughter-house ordinance before
il, but it was put in pigeOn-hole without
action. Nothing will be done with it until
after election. The committee on roads and
bridges had a secret session and opened bids
for something. but for what they refused to
state. They took no action, however.
