MINNEAPOLIS

Yesterday was the twelfth Sunday
after Easter, and, for a wonder, it did
not rain. People by the tens of thou
sands, almost, sought recreation. The
breathing places of the people, other
wise known as the public parks, were
thronged. The motor line carried at
least twenty thousand people to lakes
Calhoun and Harriet and Minnehaha
Falls. Every livery stable in the city
was overrun with orders. No injunc-
ton was issued by the district court,
and the people enjoyed themselves
thoroughly.
The deplorable accident on the motor
line was the only incident that had
tendency to cast a shadow of sadness
over the joyousnesS of the day. Where
the blame lies is to be ascertained by
careful inquiry, and until then, perhaps,
the least said the better.
Cards of invitation to :~.thday party
given by the madame of a maison de joie
have been distributed during the past
week with profusion that has oc-
casioned many a family row. 1t ap-
pears that a certain proprietress of
Fourth street Joint" who believes in
advertising, has sent out invitations, or
rather solicitations, for persons to
visit her resort with a recklesSneSS that
shows an utter disregard for the con-
ventionalities of society. Many regard
the intrusion as an attempt at black
mail, and the police commission will
be asked to suppress the too-previous
landlady.
The departure of the Minneapolitans
who desire to attend the Democratic
national convention at st. Louis in the
capacity of either delegates or specta-
tors occasioned something of furry at
the union depot yesterday morning.

Perhaps the delegates remembered
that it was Sunday and restrained their
enthusiasm. At any rate there were no
speeches and no cheers, and the circum-
stances in connection with the depart
ure of the trains did not differ material
~ from the usual scenes at the depot
j. r. SHIRLEY carried more baggage
than any five members in the party and
was forced to smuggle it past the brake
man by instaliments in order to get it
into the coach. Lac Stafford, after sur
veying the decorations on the engine,
had quite hot argument with the en-
gineer because the flags on the head
light were not hung at the right angle
A. 5. Keyes said he was sure some
thing was going to happen to the train,
for he had counted the flags on the en-
CINE and there were thirteen of them
John Lang appeared to remember thatit
was the Sabbath. He retired to one end
Of the car, and was quietly reading his
Bible when the train started.
Charlie Cornman appeared to have
the party in charge, and before he got
them all on the train and in their right
seats he was completely exhausted. j.
n. Priester was the first man in the
party to board the train, and the only
one who did not get in the wrong car.
There were few other incidents of note.
otherwise than that the travellers gen
orally presented sleepy and waS-pulled-
Out-of-bed appearance.
