IL MINNEAPOLIS FIELD.

THE MINNEAPOLIS FIELD.
"FOr mayor several names are promi-
nently mentioned. Titus Mareck, =. b.
Winston, A. T. Ankeny, Henry G..
Morse, and others. The strongest names
are probably those of Mr.. Winston and
Mr.. Ankeny, but the latter has always
expressed himself as heartily in favor
of Mr.. Winston. Neither of these gen.
tlemen is an aspirant for office, though
doubtless each has more or less political
ambition. They are both enthusiastic
Democrats and each in his way has on
many occasions rendered important
service to the party. In cam
paign no man can execute better
than Mr.. Winston. Mr.. Ankeny
never loses an opportunity to be ON
hand at the right time with an impor
tant declaration of principle or, plat
form. And he has in this way often
moulded the policy of campaign with
out appearing as q leading figure. In
the event of Democratic administra-
ton of the state he would readily he
called into a very important position,
and this is likely why he urges his
friend, MIR. Winston, for mayor. AT all
events, both of these gentlemen, as well
as the other candidates mentioned, are
looking out not for themselves, but
SiHpiy uCSlfo Will lull SOUL W S0O tllt
state and city under Democratic con-
troll, and there never will be any sharp
work for nomination of any kind.
Here, then, is the situation, and in
view of the fact that the time is flying
rapidly, it beho0ves the party in Mime
sofa to shake off its sloth and put
things into motion. The flag l would
have blown to the breeze would be

FREE TRADE WITH CANADA
Advocated by the Board of Trade
-ImpOrtant Meeting.

-ItnDOrtaHI MtetlnS.
Some time ago Maj. j. B. Bassett in
troduced into the board of trade a reso-
luton favoring free trade between the
United States and Canada. This reso-
luton was referred to special commit
tee, which reported the following reSo-
buttons yesterday morning:
Resolved, That our senators and
members i'll the present congress be and
they are hereby requested TO use their
influence TO secure Il commercial treaty
with the Dominion of Canada; and
Resolved, That in the opinion of this
board, free trade and uninterrupted
trade and intercourse between the peO-
pie of the United States and the people
of the Dominion of Canada of the
products of both countries would be
alike advantageous to both.
The resolutions were accepted and
referred.
Capt. John c. Reno and j. Y. Mind,
who attended the river convention re-
Gently held at Dubuque, reported that
they had succeeded in getting the con-
Yeption to recognize st. Anthony falls
as the head of navigation on the MlSSls-
sippi river.
A. J. Blethen sent in communica-
tion in which he claimed that the fast
mail tram Is held IN chicago ABOUT TWO
and one-half hours for the benefit of
the Chicago papers, in order that they
might compete with the local papers
here. He thought the matter should be
attended to at once. The letter was re-
ferred to special committee, consist
ing of A. J. Blethen, w. E. Steele and
Lucien Swift.
The committee to which was referred
q communication from the board of
promotion in behalf of constitutional
centennial celebration in 1889 and
worlds exposition in 1892, made report
favoring the project. The report was
accepted.
A letter from Postmaster Ankeny and
Z. P BasSford, the architect of the new
poStOffice building, reciting that by the
time the building was finished more
room would be needed and advocating
the purchase of additional land now,
when it could be had comparatively
cheap, caused a lengthy discussion.
The matter was referred to special
committee.
The w. c. Whitney letter was re-
ferred to A. j. Boardman for investiga-

as to who did write the letter, and will
look the matter up"
MI. Whitney was around at the news
paper offices early in the morning deny
ing that he had written the letter or had
ever heard of it. He was highly indig-
nant that it should be credited to him,
and he said he proposed to make it
warm for the man who forged his name.

ANOTHER FAILURE.
The Arctic Cracker and Spice
Company Goes Down.

The Arctic Cracker and Spice COM
pany made an assignment yesterday to
Charles l.. Mendel. The liabilities, it is
said, will amount to about $4,000, and
the assets, owing to the hard times,
which makes the outstanding collections
of little value. will probably not exceed
$4,000, although the nominal assets
will probably amount to nearly $25, 600.
The assignment was precinpitated by the
commencing an action in the district
court to recover S475, for merchandise
sold to the aSSignorS.

DISTRICT COURT.
A Few Notes From the Walls of
Justice,

Owing to the absence of Judges
Young and Lochren, who are both con-
fined to their homes with the prevailing
epidemic, and the failure of Judge Sew
erance to put in an appearance to try
the cases, which have been set for trial
before Judge Rea, who has gone East
on business pertaining to the u. A. r.,
there were no cases tried yesterday ex-
cept before Judge Hicks.
The case of ID. E. Russell & Co.
against the Wisconsin, Minnesota 81
Pacific Railway company, to recover
81, 191.T2 for ties sold and delivered, was
on trial yesterday before Judge Hicks.
Edward E. McDermott, formerly
representative in the legislature from
this city, was yesterday examined by
the judge of probate, and ordered COM
mitted to the insane asylum.

Winecke d Doerr to recover S14S. So for

Sunday School Superintendents,
The Sunday school superintendent
held their first meeting last night since
their organization about month ago.
The meeting was held in the hall of the
Plymouth church and Hector Baxter
presided as chairman The ate ldance
was rather slim, and no business of any
particular Importance was transacted
beyond the reading of the minutes of
the last meeting and the constitution
and bylaws, which were accepted.
The only part of the consti-
tuition discussed was the first
article as to its name, whether
il should be called the ''Hennepin
County Bible School Superintendents'
Union," or ''the Sunday School," After
longwinded and apparently unneces-
sary waste of time discussing this little
| matter, it was unanimously agreed to
stick to the old saying-Sunday School
on the principle, as one brother re-
marked, of the old lady who said when
she heard that hadeS was the new name
in the revised Bible, that hell was good
enough for her. Among those present
were Prof. Brook, II. o. Roberts. w. B.
Bradbury, b. G. Gibbons, E. Tunsted,
G. A. Chase, Mr.. Mccarthy and John d.
Smith.

The Snakes of Bengal.

Tire mortality from snake bites in Ben.
gal is much larger among women than
among men. They are usually bitten in
the early morning. when they go out un
seen before daylight, either TO fetch wood
from the .faggot stack or for some other
domestic purpose. During She rainy sea
son, when nearly all the rice fields are uu-
der water, tho snakes take refuge in the
higher plats Of land. on which the vii.
lagos are built, ard they hide themselves
in the little woodstacks and granaries in
the court yards Of tho houses; while not
infrcquentiy they take mp their abode in
the house itself where they are allowed
to dwell with impunity. and sometimes fed
with milk, until. on some uulucky day,
the wife treads accidentally on the snake
in the dark. and il turns upon her and
bites her. From the bite Of a full grown
cobra death cnsues in q very few minutes,
and the natives have no such remedies at
hand as English science might use. but
they put a vain faith in the fanciful
charms and incantations recommended By
their priests.-Quarterly Review.
