DEMOCRATS TO RATIFY.
Preparations for Mass Meeting
Next Friday NIGHT

Notification is the order of the day
with the Democracy of Minnesota, and
Pm order to give vent to their pent-up
enthusiasm it is proposed to have
grand ratification meeting Friday even
ing to endorse the action of the
st. louis national Democratic
convention, although it is not
the purpose of the originators
to make it local affair, but a general
jubilee. 1t will be arranged under the
auspices of the Ramsey County Demo-
cratic club. Secretary Robert Miller,
of the state committee, has been COM
municated with, and promises his
hearty cooperation so far as securing
speakers is concerned, and the indca-
tons are that there will be a SpOn-
taneouS outpouring Of the rank and
file of the Democracy next Friday even
ing. Senator Durant, of Saltwater,
was in the city yesterday, and when the
subject was preached to him he assured
the members of the committee on az
engagements that they could count
upon him to give the matter a boom,
and he was sure that a number of
his Democratic constituents would be
only too glad to help fill the column.
The list of speakers will comprise the
representative men Of Minnesota. A
meeting of the Ramsey county club will
be held this evening at the municipal
court room, when the preliminary steps
will be taken for arranging a definite
programme.

Summary of the Doings Of a
Day Gathered From All
Sources.
1T is NO STRADDLE.

Mr. Rodgson, OF the Alliance, Ex-
plains Mr.. Scheffer's Position
on the Platform.
s'Ths GLoBE is inclined to poke fun
at our can idate for governor" re-
marked Thomas c. Hodgson, of the
Farmers Alliance, last evening; land
as the farmers of this state regard the
GLOBE to be one of the fairest papers
In the Northwest, l want to
say few words through you
just to square Mr.. Schetfer on
the tariff questian. Mr.. Scheffer has
been misrepresented by the report of
his speeches published in the Pioneer
Press. He has not gone back on the al
lance platform. He stands to-day just
where he stood the day he accepted our
nomination. The alliance platform
contains just one sentence relat-
ing to the tariff, and reads
thus: We demand a radical re-
duction of the tariff That
is Mr.. Scheffer'S position. 1t is not
necessary for him to be Democrat or
even Cleveland man to do that. The
truth is instead of the alliance indorsing
Cleveland's tariff policy it is Cleveland
indorsing the alliance tariff policy.
Four years ago the alliance adopted
platform embodying the ideas which
Mr.. Cleveland so forcibly presented
in his last nnual message.
l am a Republican and low tariff man,
and tell you we intend to have Albert
Scheffer nominated by the Republican
convention or make the biggest fight
that has ever been known in this state.
The people are back of this movement,
and they are not going to be tricked this
time by the machine bosses. Otter
Tail, and the whole Fifth district, for
that matter, is practically solid for
Scheffer and tariff reform"

FREE KINDERGARTENS.
What the Association Is Doing in
St. Paul.

The free kindergarten system is a
comparatively new institution in this
city, taken as it stands to-day. The
credit of introducing it here belongs to
Rev. E. c. Mitchell, pastor of the
SwedenborgiaD church, and to Miss
Grace Johnson, the untiring, talented
teacher, who for some time practically
had the responsibility of its success or
failure upon her shoulders. In June,
1887, according to the report of the
secretary, Mrs. Ludden, friends Of the
kindergarten met at the rooms of the
Relief society, sixteen being present,
and organized the st. Paul Free Kinder
garten association, making the inStitu-
ton what its name implies-a free pub
lie benefit.
The society needed funds. and par
lor concert was given at Mrs. William
Constants home. Enough was melted to
liouidate the small liabilities contracted.
and in September of last year the Ninth
Street Kindergarten, in the Relief So
ciety building, opened under Miss
Davy's direction. A generous donation
of $50 was received, and then the
Ladies' Aid Societs of Dayton's Bluff
assumed all the outlay of the Institution
except what the $50 referred to would
cover. This resulted in the opening
last january of the Dayton's Bluff Kin
dergarten, under the care of Miss Ada
Williams.
Mrs. DR.. Haupt was very much inter-
ested in the success of the free kinder
garten here, and for long time she con-
tributed great assistance. In February
some necessary funds were acquired
through an entertainment given by eX-
members of the Yale College Glee club,
and so far Mrs. Carl Ludwig, the solicit
tor of the association, has secured
81 900 by her energetic split. The as
ISOLATION desires to thank the public
for the generous way in which it has re-
eeived Mrs, Ludwig.
The association now has two more
rooms other than those already NEIL
toned, one at the West st. Bethel, and
the other in the chapel of the Ninth
Presbyterian church, and a committee
is now looking up what can be done for
Swede hollow. Up to date 100 children
are enrolled, under the careful training
of Misses Williamson, Davy, Jessie lib
belts and Lizzie Winterbottom, who
have volunteered their services as teach
erS.
The association met yesterday after
noon at Relief hall to hold its second
annual meeting. Rev. Z. c. Mitchell
was reelected president, and Rev.
Richard Hall vice president. The new
officers are: Mrs. Charles Allen, vice
PRESIDENT; Mrs. J. d. Esterbrook, secre-
tary; Miss Rosina Ludden, treasurer,
and Mrs. Carl Ludwig, solicitor. The
| new board of managers not being filled,
the association decided to postpone fur
Their action upon it until next Monday
at 8 D. IN at an adjourned meeting.

FOR BREACH OF PROMISE.
The Award of $4,000 Damages to
Olive Hanson Is Affirmed.

The supreme court yesterday affirmed
The decision of the lower court in the
Elton-Hanson breach of promise suit,
which was appealed from Fillmore
county. The plaintiff in the case was
awarded $3.50 damages. She is a
cousin of the defendant and native of
Norway. Elton is a Well-to-do farmer,
and several years ago sent for the young
woman to come to America. She came
and was employed as a servant in his
house. An illicit intimacy resulted in
the birth of two children, which he
sought to disclaim. The syllabus in the
case is signed by Judge Gilfillan. who
holds the damages awarded not excess
i've. Other cases were decided as
follows:
THE SYILABI.
Frank Undhejem, appellant, vs.William
III. Hastings, respondent.
Syllabus-ln an action for an injury
caused by defendants negligently driv-
ing his buggy against plaintiff i'll a
public street, it not appearing that the
street was much thronged with vehicles,
held that it was not negligence per Sc
in plaintiff to go along in the Street-for
a lawful purpose-without looking be-
hind him to see if vehicles might be APP
preaching from that direction. Order
reversed. GILFILLAN, j.
Allen w. Clark, respondent, VS.. The
City of Austin, appellant.
Syllabus-Application of the rule that
where allegations were by consent
manifestly litigated at the trial as
though they were put in issue by the
written pleadingS and will be treated
on appeal to this court as though thus
put in issue. Evidence held sufficient
to sustain the verdict. Held that where
notice of a claim for injuries sustained
from defects in a street has been
served on the mayor or recorder as re-
Quired by section Is, chapter T, of the
city of Austin, the claim need not be
presented to the common council under
section Il. chapter IL. The charter of
Austin provides that no action shall be
maintained against the city for damages
caused by any obstruction or excavation
in any street, placed there by any per-
son or by his negligence in the manage
ment thereof or his failure to maintain
guards or lights thereat, unless on such
Judgment against the defendants exc
cutiOn shall first issue against such per-
son, and if the city pay the Judgment 1t
shall be the owner of and may enforce
1t against the other defendant. Held in
such action the verdict may, if the
sentence Justify it, be against both de-
1endantS, OF against one anu iii favor OI
the other, and also in case the verdict is
against the city and in favor of the CO.
defendant the city cannot move for a
new trial Oh the ground that the verdict
ought to have been against the CO.
defendant also, unless it make the CO.
defendant party to the motion. Order
affirmed. GILFULAN, j.
j. T. Blake, respondent, VS.. Bert Lee
and Harry Wadsworth, appellants.
SS1labus-To bring before this court
