was appointed to write history of the
regiment. After the transaction of this
lowed by addresses by Maj. Strait,
Capt. n. j. Daniels, Capt. W. D. Wall

The Ninth Minnesota was organized
in August 1862, and mustered out just
three years later, at Fort Smelling. 1t

and fought it in sixteen engagements.
The original colonel was Alex Wilkin,
of ST. Paul, who fell at Tupelo. He

A MOVABLE SHIELD
Proposed by Aid. Cooley to Work
the Big Tunnel.

The sewer department has for some
time past been having considerable
trouble with the big sewer tunnel in
now reached that point where it is
probable that a change will have to be
made in the plan of carrying on the
work. Since the tunnel c.ossed Fourth
avenue north but little effective work
has been done, on account Of the I'M
reliable nature of the soil. Yes
terday afternoon the council committee
on sewers, with Engineers Cooley and
Van DuZee, looked over the ground
carefully and held long conference in
regard to the matter, and Mr.. Cooley
submitted plan to Mr.. Van Duzee. If
this plan is accepted work III the tunnel
will be resumed at once. The follow
ing interview with Mr.. Cooley fully eX-
plains bis plan:
There are about one and a quarter
miles of the tunnel built from the mouth
on Eighth avenue south. When Fourth
avenue north was reached the WOrkmen
got FROM under the limestone ledge and
white rock. only to meet with sand and
gravel, with clay deposits, the most UNI
certain and unreliable material in which
to construct a tunnel of that nature.
The conditions of that material are
such that in making an opening
through it, sand and gravel are forced
through by the water above, making it
very dangerous to work i'll without
extraordinary precautions, and neces-
stating some radical changes in carry
ing on the work. | propose the con-
struction of an internal shield of iron,
in sections, so arranged as to permit
the carrying on of the work without any
delay. This shield in connection with
such movable bulkhead as to permit
of excavating in advance of the work
without danger or delay will, l think,
Obviate the difficulty. l think the plan
is feasible and will be accepted by the
engineers in charge of the work. 1t
will be presented to-day to the sewer
department. The entire cost of this
plan will not exceed $1,000. The ex-
penses after the plan has been put into
execution will be much less than here
tOfOre.

AN IMPORTANT EXPERIMENT.
Electricity to Be Tested on a
Large Scale on the Street Car
Lines

Electricity to Be Tested on a
Large Scale on the Street Car
Lines.
The beauties and inconvenience of
electricity as motive power for street
railway purposes has been partially
tested in Minneapolis and pronounced
failure. The Vanderpoele system was
used on the motor, but not under
favorable auspices, and though
it was abandoned, the electric
people claimed it was and could be con-
tinued perfect success. But the cleo
trio system is again to be tried and this
time Mr.. Lowry proposes to give 1t
thorough test on street car line. The
preliminary arrangements were COM
pleted yesterday, and within a week
work will begin to convert the Lyndale
avenue line in an electric way, with the
certainty that If it is success,
the system will come into general use
in Minneapolis and st. Paul. The
Sprague company, of New York, has
made the arrangements, and proposes
to operate the $4,000 feet of the Lyndale
line for period of five months at their
own expense, and then, if successful,
the change will go into general use.
The line is to be in working
order by Jan. l next. Eight
handsome cars are to be put on, equipped
with all modern improvements. The
electric power will be furnished by the
Edison company's new plant, in the
rear of the Lumber exchange, and the
general system is like that of the
Vanderpoele system. The Edison
company is imbued with the
confidence of the Sprague COM
pany and will push its plant to an
early completion, expecting to furnish
electric power for the entire city. The
experiment will be watched with inter-
est, and if successful, will revolution
ize not only the street car propelling
system, but that of all small manu-
facturing

TURNED into A LAKE.
Dismal and Dpeary Scenes
Presented at the Fair
Grounds.
Persistent Sight Seers Seek
for Recreation Under
Shelter.
Premiums and Medals Award
ed to Many Successful
Competitors.
Sham Battle ManeuvePS Will
Terminate the Weeks
Festivities.

The fair grounds were deserted yes
terday. There was nothing to see or
nothing to do. The side shows had
closed their doors. The pavilions were
almost destitute, and the grand stand,
lately decked in festal garb, literally
shed tears as the drilling rain
fell through the small cracks in
the roof. Each drop contributed Its
quota towards the generally dismal
scene-the heavy, loggy track, the pad
dock, which had been converted into
miniature lake-completely metamor-
phosed the Fair grounds and converted
them from a pleasure garden to dreary
cluster of buildings completely sur
rounded by mud and water. There was
no racing, no balloon ascension, no
music to cheer the drenched stray
glers who happened to be on the
grounds. Many people who arrived in
the city on the early trains yesterday
with view toputting in the day at the
Fair sought more comfortable quarters,
and whiled the time away about the
hotels and other places of public and
fashionable resort. 4 few, however,
thinking that the weather would clear
up, took trains for the grounds, but
quickly wished themselves back in the
city. The agricultural hall was a
favorite refuge for the stOrm-beaten
wayfarers, but many spent their
time admiring the horses and cattle,
Barn c, where Adrian Wilkes was
housed. being a fayorite haunt. The
art gallery also received its share Of
patronage and attention, and the gen.
erous donations of representative cit
liens were again the subject for favor
able comment. The only noise which
broke the mOnOtOnOuS sound of falling
rain was the shooting of the st. Paul
Gbn club, who were dispoSing of their
unfinished events.
The auction sale of horses and cattle
was necessarily postponed. Messrs.
Myers q Co, of Wells, Mimi, however
sold four fine head Of HOlstein-FrieSian
cattle at prices raging from $50 to 800
a head. Tie remaining forty one head
will be sold to-day at 10 o'clock. Sher-
wood and Knight will also dispose of
their stock of bloOded horses. They
sold yesterday the bay gelding ''Hay-
maker to Geo. w. Groves, of Rochester,
for S115.

CUTE AT THE BUSINESS.
Inspector LawrenCe's Arrest OF a
Bold Burglar.

An arrest was made by Inspector
Lawrence last evening which promises
TO prove of more than ordinary interest.
Nearly every day for almost year past
reports have been coming into the police
headquarters of the operations of sneak
thieves in various buildings around the
city. In almost every case the
goods taken were clothes or
articles that could be easily
disposed of. In some cases the
losers of the goods were able to give
pretty accurate description of the man
who was supposed to have taken the
goods. This description was furnished
to the police, but none OF the inspectors
ran across the fellow.
Early last evening Inspector Law
renee was coming down Washington
avenue when he saw yOnng man an
swering the description crossing the
street near Fourth avenue with a rub
Der coat over his arm. He went up to
him and found under the coat two val
liable gold-headed umbrellas. which,
under close questioning, the fell
low admitted having taken from
block on Nicollet avenue, near
Sixth street. The man was
taken to police headquarters, where
he said that his true name was J. G..
Hagland and that he had been travelling
under the names of j. c. Brown, j. c..
Towne, j. &. Riley, J. G. Butler and
half dozen others. In his pockets
were found large number of skeleton
keys, lock pick, a key turner and a
handc cuff key. Hagland finally broke
down completely and stated to the off
GERS that he had gone through the
offices in the Bank of Minneapolis
building, the Eastman block, the Woods
block, the Hennepin block, the Security
bank building and several others. He
also said that on Thursday night he had
stolen saddle and bride from a
barn on Plymouth avenue north. In
proof of his statements he told where
he had disposed of theogOOds. He was
was taken to the variods pawnshOps
and fully identified as the man who had
disposed of large amount of goods at
sundry times.
Hagland was seen in his cell at the
central station later on in the evening
He admitted his guilt and said that he
had taken to stealing because he could
not get enough money any other way.
What he realized from the sale of the
articles he stole and pawned or sold he
spent in fast living. Hagland is tall,
well-fOrmed fellow, with a smooth face
He is pleasing in address and is the
last person in the world one would take
for sneak thief.
