in the library board has been on the in
crease. The members of the board are
/. b. Walker, Thomas Lowry, Nj. B.
Koon. Prof. Sven. Oftedahl, Mayor
Ames, John Atwater, E. NJ Johnson
and Prof. Cyrus Northrup. This board
has always worked we'll together, and
it is due the board to say that the new
building is the result of the eff
forts of the members. Mayor
Ames, of course. is an ex-officio
member, and retires when his term
as mayor expires. The regular MEM
bers whose terms expires this season
are I. B. Walker and Prof. Oftedahl.
AS far as known there are no candidates
for these two vacancies, and MI. Walker
and Prof. Oftedahl will probably be
sent back. Mr.. Walker has always
taken deep interest and has spent
much time in library matters. Prof.
Ottedahl represents to remarkable de-
gree the foreign element here, and is
extremely popular in all circles.
Prof. Sven Oftendahl, George III. Mil
Ter, B. F. Nelson, A. G. Austin, w. D.
Hale, A. L. Ankeny, and Prof. j. g.
Moore, are the gentlemen who consti-
tute the board of education. The gen.
tlemen whose terms of Office expire this
winter are George H. Miller, A. c.
Austin, Prof. Oftedahl and A. T.
Ankeny. There is no salary attached to
the office, and for that reason candi-
dates are not as numerous as for some
positions. The present board has done
much toward bringing the school sys-
tenn of Minneapolis up to its present
high standard, and they naturally feel
as though they would like to remain a
few more years until other schools are
built and Minneapolis can boast of hay
ing the best schools in the United States.
So far as heard from, there are no other
candidates in the field.

CIPRICO'S HAMLET.

The presentation of Hamlet" at the
Grand opera house, June 14, under
the supervision of George NJ. Ciprico,
the tragedian, is to be on an elaborate
scale, and the smallest dramatic and
historical detail is to receive scholarly
attention. Ophelia's burial, for in
stance, will be at night with burning
incense and lighted torches, according
to the old medieval law regarding sui
cides. Prof. Bass, the organist of Geth-
semane church, is training seventy-ive
choiristers who are to appear in this
scene dressed in collar and cassock in
the solemn surplice chant, which will
prove a pleasing novelty. 1t would
seem that Mr.. Ciprico's production of
this great tragedy is to be characterized
by such careful and intelligent handling
and equipment as to make it an event
that will be appreciated, especially by
students of Shakespeare. Many of the
clergy of both Minneapolis and st. Paul
are accepting the invitation which Mr..
Clprico has extended to the cloth.

THE PEOPLES THEATER,

The production of damon and Pyth-
las" at the Peoples theater last evening
was highly creditable to the members of
the company included in the cast. j. B.
Browne, as Damon, read his lines with
great intelligence and effect, and, al
though he had already created highly
favorable impression, gained greatly in
public estimation as an actor. This
evening the play will be changed to
american Born" strong melodrama,
which is to run until Wednesday even
ing, when the benefit to the Irish-Amer-
lean club occurs. Already 1000 tickets
have been sold, and crowded house is
assured. There will be double bill,
and perhaps some special features. The
''Irish Emigrant'' will be presented, to
be followed by Sketches in India"
a comedy farce in which Miss Marie
Wellesley takes the part of Sally
she has received deal of praise.
american Born" will then be put on
for the balance of the week.
Thursday afternoon the benefit to the
striking machine girls takes place at
this theater, when a literary and mu-
steal programme will be rendered, to
close with Sketches in India.'
A splendid programme is being ar
ranged for the benefit to Ed r. Richards
Thursday evening, June z. Some of the
best musical and dramatic talent the
city affords has already volunteered.
Treasurer Theodore Hays leaves this
evening for Chicago to perfect arrange
ments for the five weeks engagement

ing at the Casino in that city. The com.
pany consists of fifty members, and has
a repertoire of fourteen operas. The
engagement will begin June IL.

seems to be conceded that Mayor Ames
will be off the track, in pursuit of
higher game, and no one thinks OF him
in connection with the mayOralty. DEM
Ocratic sentiment has cryStalliZed upon
two men for mayor, and they are ?. B.
Winston and A. Il. Ankeny. Each of
them has expressed himself as in
no way anxious to make the
race, Though victory seems we'll assured.
Candidates among the Republicans are
more numerous. Capt. E. c. Babb and
Aid. 6. w. Cooley, has each intimated
he would consider the nomination a
personal favor, and is, therefore, in the
hands of his friends. d. NJ. ClOugh. if
knocked out in the congressional race,
will certainly be entered. Freeman I.
Lanes name is still used, and it is held
that Lars Swenson, A. G. Hangar,
Mai. Camp, Il. B. Janney or r. l.. Pratt
might each make good candidate.
For treasurer the present incumbent,
E. Ii. Moulton, will undoubtedly run
again, and will be alone in his party, as
far as heard from. The Democrats will
certainly nominate K. Koortgaard, who
is regarded as invincible. None but a
bank official can handle the Office to any
advantage, or give the heavy bond re-
quired.
The Republicans have not trotted out
a candidate for comptroller, and no one
seems anxious to tackle the present in
cumbent, f. q. Holbrook. Two years
ago HOlbrook was unknown, and got the
nomination because no one wanted 1t.
He rode in on the Ames tidal wave, but
he proved so competent and successful
an officer that it looks now as though he
would have no serious opposition, either
for nomination or election. There is
absolutely no talk of this Office in any
political circle.

Engagements of Annie Pixley
and the Troubadours to
Close the Season.
The Students Of Shakespeare
Promised a Treat in Cipri-
co.'s "Hamlet."
A Cpeditable Performance Of
Damon and Pythias''
at the Peoples.
Items Of Interest Regarding
Actors and Kindred
Topics.

The season of grand opera is practi-
cally over. and with the engagement of
Annie Pixley and Salsbury's Trouba-
dOurs the regular dramatic season ends.
1t is fitting that the week should end in
laughter, and who can better invoke the
pipes than Annie Pixley? The peer of
singing condolences, she brings with
her new play and appears in part
that will show her versatility. Very
few theater-goers know that at one time
Annie PiXley was prima donna in En-
glish opera, but at one time she had all
possessing a voice of rich quality and
compass, Miss Pixley can act, and in
her new play of "a DeacOn's Daughter"
every opportunity is given her to show
her versatility. The play deals with
the troubles and perpleXities of young
girl who has adopted the stage, and who
tries to conceal her vocation from her
New England and Puritanical parents.
This play will be given Monday and
Tuesday evenings. Wednesday 'M'liss,"
Miss Pixley's first great success and
played by her over 1,500 times, will be
presented. There will be no Wednes-
day matinee.
Salsbury's Troubadours will finish
out the week at the Grand, commenc-
ing, Thursday. The ''Humming Bird"
will be produced. The play opens with
scene in Central park, near the
Shakespeare statue. Augustus Honey
moon, just married, has had slight un-
pleasantness with his wife on account
of his being caught kissing the lady's
maid, pretty Sally Styles. This leads
him to look for other female society,
and he inserts personal in the Herald,
signed drumming Bird" which is
answered by person giving the name
OF Mignonette, and a meeting is ar
ranged for at night in Central park.
Honeymoon goes there to keep
the engagement with fear and trem-
bling. He isaccompanied by Robert
Racket, an artist. At the last moment
Honeymoon changes his mind and seeks
to hide himself. Mr.. Joseph Brass has
also advertised for the Acquaintance of a
rich young lady.OHe appears on the
scene. Sally Styles, ambitious of be-
coming an actress, is his correspondent.
They recognize each other as old &C
quaintanceS. Matilda FullalOve, young
widow, also turns up, instigated by Mrs.
Honeymoon, to answer her husbands
advertisement. This leads to a compli-
Gated and humorous situation. The
second act, owing to misunderstanding
engendered in the first act, is filled with
comical confusion, and some ingenuity
is required to bring matters to peace
full conclusion.-The Star, Feb. s, 1887.

BETWEEN THE SEXES.
Difficulties of Man and Wife Rem
edied by the Law.


Anna Rasmussen obtained a divorce
yesterday from Lars Rasmussen on the
ground of desertiOn, and also obtained
an order OF the court allowing her to as
sumo her maiden name of Anna G..
Hanson. She testified that she was
twenty-five years old and that the de-
PENDANT was twenty-eight, and that they
were married in this city on the I'd of
July, 1888, and that shortly after their
marriage he deserted her without any
provocation or cause and that she had
neither seen nor heard of him since.
Caroline Running, young woman of
a careworn and detected appearance,
obtained divorce yesterday from John
Running, on the ground of drunken
ness and non-support. She was also
given the care and custody of the two
children, aged two and four years re-
five years and the defendants as twenty
eight years, and stated that they were
married in this city on the 22d of Feb
ruary, 1888, and soon after their mar
riage her husband had commenced
drinking and had neglected to furnish
or provide either her or her children
with either food or clothing. and that
after, when intoxicated, he had abused
both her and the children.
The following divorce cases, which
were on the special term calendar for
yesterday, were continued for one week:
Tillie g. Albee VS.. Charles II. Albee.
Julie Crandall VS.. Silas E. Crandall.
May Hawley VS.. George ii. Hawley.
Frank Wagner VS.. Amelia Wagner.
NJ. Zimmerman VS.. David Zimmerman.
Frances Hall VS.. Frank Hall. M. John
son VS.. John johnson. A. Brigham VS..
Frank Brigham. Laura BjornSon VS..
Barre Bjornson.
Frederick Bohman, who was convict
ed couple of weeks ago of bastardy
and sentenced to pay $3.50 a week for
the support of the child, settled the
whole matter yesterday by marrying
the complaining witness, Clara Nelson.
Henry A. Ward. executor of the es-
tate of Arthur L. III. Williams, deceased,
has begun an action against Willis
Baker to have a certain contract of sale
5000, declared null and void on account
of a default in the payment of the
money.
The jury in the case of Sarah ]. Red
ding VS.. the city to recover S15,UOO dam
ages for injuries OccaSiOned by stepping
through hole in the sidewalk on Plym-
outh avenue, rendered verdict in
favor of the city.
Mary j. Mari, executrix of the estate
of Dennis w. Mari, deceased. has be-
gun an action against Charlotte r.
Shaw, of ScarbOro, Me-, Sister-in-law
of the deceased, to compel the
specific performance of a contract.
It is claimed that the defendant, Shaw,
entered into an agreement with the de-
ceased in 1866, in which she agreed to
sell him ITO acres of land in section 6,
town 29, range %, for Sc, 200, to be paid as
follows: He was to pay 300 down, erect
certain buildings thereon and to keep
the taxes paid, and when he paid the
balance without interest she agreed to
give him deed of sale of the premises.
1t is claimed that the deceased per-
formed all the conditions of the agree
ment, except rendering the $4,000 bal
ance, and that it has been rendered by
the eXecutrix, but the defendant refuses
to give deed.

Bradish. Barlow will again BIS a candi-
date and will be opposed:in his own party

Black. The Republicans will trot cut
J. NJ. Parker, Hiram w. Briggs, NJ. w.

renee.
For surveyor. P. NJ. Dahl, the present
incumbent, has little opposition any
where. He can easily get his party sup
port, and the Democrats have not
thought of the Office yet.
Last, but not least, comes the county
attorneyship. OF all the scramble and
scrapping, this Office will promote the
worst. The names Of the candidates on
both sides are legion. F. F. Davis says
he is through with it, and Robert
Jamison, the present assistant. is his
legatee. Jamison'S friends are spread
ing the report that he has WalkOyer,
but this is holly denied by other Repub-
lcan aSpirantS. j. n. Bearnes has
made lively preliminary skirmish and
wears warm summer smile. f. M.
Nye is announced as candidate, but 1t
is generally believed he and Jamison
hunt in couples, Nye to be JamiSon'S
assistant. Col. Robert Stratton, presi-
dent of the Union League, E. G. Hay.
Ed. A. Sumner and Hector Baxter are
all trailing the Republican nominations
very closely.
The Democrats are not making so
much noise, but are doing quite as much
work. X. l.. Penny is not saying a
word, but he is known to be in the field,
just the same. Judge Hollins has been
making mental estimate of his ability
to lay out any Republican candidate,
and is surely in the clover patch him
self. j. w. Lawrence, it is said, has
refused all overtures to allow the use of
his name. John T. Byrnes, a. d.
Smith, VIM. ii. Donohue and Thomas
CAVITY are all more or less spoken of,
but are not announced as open candi-
dates.

greSSiOnaI PlumS.

gressionaI Plums.
Minneapolis is not grasping in the
way of the higher Offices. The am
billions of her people are, for the most
part, confined to the fat offices apper-
tanning to her own local government
and the machinery of the county. The
favorite son fad has penetrated the
Mill City to just the extent that Mayor
Ames is mentioned as a vice presi-
Dental candidate on the ticket
with Cleveland. His own lips
have not confirmed this, but with him it
is an instance of silence giving consent.
Gen. Washburn is the only other Min
neapOlitan hOnored by mention in con-
nection with the supreme office, but he
has felt its course and politely with
drawn his name. For an elector, Mons
Grinager has been named by the Repub-
licanS, and it is probable that either E.
II. Wilson or A. L. Ankeny or both will
be named in a similar capacity by the
Democrats.
When it comes to congressional can
didates the Republican side of the
clover patch teens with willing mar
tyrs and the number has increased
since the withdrawal of Edmund Rice.
Loren Fletcher apparently holds the
nomination in the hollow of his hand,
though this fact is most empathically
denied by his opponents. Capt. S. p.
Snider has made thorough prelimi-
nary fight and bristles with war paint
and feathers, while d. NJ. Clough, who
now holds down two offices, is the latest
entry for the sweepstakes. There is a
strong probability of the trotting out of
Frank Davis as dark horse, and the
mention of his name causes the older
SteedS to snort and tremble.
The Democrats are holding off COM
pletely. The idea that Minneapolis
will get the nomination for governor
has induced the belief that st. Paul
should have the congressman, with
view to pooling issues i'll the general
run. Ames, Wilson and Ankeny have
all been mentioned, but none of them
has shown the slightest desire to make
the run. 1t is pretty safe to say the
Minneapolis delegation will throw its
strength to the man from another
county who shall have developed the
greatest speed.
For state officers the metropolitan
county will display wonderful
modesty, if present indications can be
relied upon, though later developments
may bring into the sunlight sundry shy
plants now being secretly nourished in
the shadow. AS far as now to be seen
each party will trOt out one man for @
place on the state ticket-Ames, Demo-
crat, for governor, and Hans Mattson,
Republican, for denomination for Secre-
tary of state. When this is said all is
said.

Eighth ward local politics are going to
be moulded largely by the position of
candidates upon the question of lower
tracks. Aid. Cooley will prob
ably retire if his may0ralty
boom does not burst. Albert Lawrence,
OF course, desires a reelection, and Aid.
Stoneman is determined to be returned.
Other Republican candidates mentioned
are Dan Thompson, Frank Grygla. A.
K. Chestnut and John Day Smith. The
Democrats suggested are Judge j. B.
Quinn, DR.: III. A. Avery, John Ludlum
and possibly r. E. Bader.
In the Ninth ward Aids. Kerr, Erwin
and V0gt will all ask to be returned,
and Matt Bredemus and William Gull
lick are the only other Democrats men-
toned. The Republicans seem to be
confined to eX-Ald. ComStock and Capt.
George.
Oswald, Democrat, and Reeves, Re-
publican, will want to come back from
the Tenth in all probability. C.F. Bax-
ter and Health Inspector Schwartz from
the Democrats, and j. II. Seymour, Re-
publican, are talked of.

missioner, r. E. Whittemore, r. B.

strive for the Republican nomination.
Aid. Stoft, who is in the Eleventh
ward, at the close of the present term
will be leading Democratic candidate
with John McElroy, William Leary and
j. B. Ungerman to follow.
Parker, Republican, and Tingley,
Democrat, both want to go back from
the Twelfth ward. Charles Tufts,
member of the Democratic city commit
tee, who was defeated as the result of
bitter fight in the glass works precinct
last spring, is again candidate and is
about the only Democrat prominently
mentioned thus far. For the Republi-
cans, Attorney j L. Vanderwalker,
Harry B. Cramer and Ira A. Newell
are said to be the candidates.
The slice of the old Eighth known
know as the thirteenth ward does not
present any interesting features. Aid.
Nichols and Garyey will both seek re-
nominations and no other candidates
seem to have been mentioned.

pire the first Monday in January are

Loring, j. G. Oswald, Byron Sutherland
eight vacancies to be filled. While the
office of park commissioner is not par
ticularly desirable one, it is extremely
probable that the gentlemen whose
terms of Office expire would
not object to having their
names used in the convention. The
park and boulevard system of Minneap-
oils has grown so of late years that IL is
now source of pride to all who have
been connected with it. The gentle
men who have been instrumental in
bringing about this desirable state of
affairs take deep interest in the mat
ter, and it is fair to presume that they
would like to remain until the system
is completed. There is no logging for
places, however, and both conventions
will nominate off hand by acclama-
ton.
Since it was decided to erect a new
public library in Minneapolis, interest
