BIG DEAL AFOOT.
The Minneapolis Syndicate to
Build a Theater in st. Paul.


Build a Theater in st. Paul.
There is everyreason to believe that
circumstances will arise which will
make it necessary for Minneapolis cap
italists. the present owners of the Grand
opera, to erect fine theater in st. Paul.
If the st. Paul Grand is purchased by
Lolita and the present combination
between the two Grands is ended,
the Minneapolis syndicate will build
a theater in st. Paul that will
open SOMEBODY'S eyes. The syndicate has
already secured an option on the Dick
inson property, on Fourth, Fifth and st.
Peter streets, and there the new theater
will go. The situation is simply this:
The long jump from Chicago to the
Twin Cities make it almost impossible
for good attractions TO book in but
one of these cities and the two
Grands have now deal by
which they transfer companies. If
Lolita buys the st. Paul Grand and
makes deal with or buys the Hennepin
avenue, the Minneapolis Grand must
hustle for a st. Paul connection, and
that is exactly what it is now doing.
Manager COnklin admitted this to be
the situation, and added that Lolita had
not yet closed with the st. Paul Grand
and had made no offer for the Minneap-
oils Grand.

Business Men Responding to the Re-

Afternoon.

The attendance at the Exposition yes
terday was about the average, and the
DAM band delighted fair-Slzed au-
diences with a well-selected pro-
gramme. Prof. Leroy made his leap
from the Exposition tower at O'Clock
in the afternoon. The wind was blow
ing too briskly to permit him to Jump
from the balcony of the tower, and the
leap was made from the window under
it, which is 200 feet from the ground.
The parachute did not fill until Leroy
was within about fifty feet from the
ground, and the spectacle made the peo-
ple hold their breath. The parachute
caught the air finally, and Leroy landed
safely on his feet in the street. In the
evening he gave his exhibition of IOpe
walking and trapeZe performing. per
forming some wonderful feats. Prof.
Carpenter, the mesmerist, also gave his
interesting exhibitions of hypnotism.

TO LOWER TAXES.
The Board of Levy Makes a
Sweeping Cut for This Year.

sweeping Cut Tor his \ ear.
The county board of tax levy met yes
terday afternoon at the court house, and
agreed on a tax levy of is mills for next
year. Mayor Ames was elected chair
man of the board. Deputy Auditor
Ortman reported that of the arbitrary
state school tax of two mills, which is
levied, the city would receive as its pro-
portion only about $4,000. This is but
little more than One-third of the amount
realized from this city by the state on
the twO-mill levy for school pur-
poses. After figuring over this item
some time, the board concluded
that an additional $40 mills would be
required for the schools of this city and
county for the year 1889. This cOnclu-
sion was not arrived at without a good
deal of criticism of the action OF the
legislature in passing law which COM
pels the city to pay into the state school
fund nearly three times as much money
as it receives back for school purposes.
In making up the levy for county eX-
penScS, the fact that both political par
lies have incorporated into their plat
form planks calling for the aboli-
ton of the fee system In the
Offices of sheriff, clerk of court and
register of deeds, was taken into coll
SideratiOn, and the levy for county eX-
penSes was made $4,000 smaller in an
ticipatiOn of having the incomes of
these officers turned into the county
treasury. 1t was figured that the county
would save $4,000 by paying the incum-
bentS Of these Offices suitable salaries
instead of allowing them all the fees
and peTQuisiteS of their offices, as is
the DraSGOt ems toms
This levy was therefore made l 40
mills instead of l $40 mills, as it was
last year, thereby making the required
reduction of $4,000.
The tax levy as finally agreed on for
next year shows a reduction of 2-l0
mills as compared with the tax levy of
1888, without taking in consideration
the tax for ward purposes, and is as fol-
lows

LOOKS LIKE 1T.
A Plausible Story of the Big
Wheat Steal.

w
1t is said now that Harry S. Holcomb,
the foreman of the Union Elevator COM
pany, who left the company's service
last January. did not disgorge all he
realized from the stolen wheat, and
that the check for $3.50 to F. g. Pills
bury did not represent all the money
although he claimed it did. 1t is said
that HOlcomb had made about $4,000
by the stolen wheat, which was sold in
Chicago, and drew out, fearing detec-
ton. After that the others in the
scheme took Mason. Holcomb's sue
cessor, into the plot, and went
on until they were discovered.
Holcomb, Harley, and Mason
were confronted by the cOmpany's at
torneys and compromise was patched
up by which they made restitution of
what they had, upon the understanding
that there should be no criminal prose-
cution. Afterwards it was found that
more wheat had been taken than was
supposed, and arrests followed. This
is the story given, at least, and seems
borne out by the circumstances in con-
nection with arrests and Holcomb's
leaving the city.
