ponds mainly on the completion Of pay
ments ON furnishings of theater as
sumed by Sackett 81 Virgins, which
furnishings are secured by chattel
mortgage, and as Sackett & Virgins are
lnsolvent and cannot make deferred
payments, the furnishings will be sold
under mortgage and will not bring
amount due on them, thus all benefits to
Hennepin Avenue Theater company
on account of what has been
advanced will be wiped out.
Now as to proposition to recover of
Hennepin Avenue Theater company.
The $1,000 cash covers all unsecured
claims and cost of care of building since
it came into the hands of a receiver, all
liabilities of every kind. including in
terest on claims to date, attorneys fees,
to be assumed and paid in full, so per
cent OF amount in cash and balance in
SIX quarterly payments, amply secured,
with 8 per cent interest, the assumption
OF mortgage and ground lease, thus
giving to every creditor of the company
100 cents on the dollar, settling all legal
complications as to priority of lien,
equity in lease, etc.
Now, again, regarding my position in
this transaction, will simply say that 1

Single-handed l had to fight the plucky
attorney of the debtors to secure re-

other mOurnerS, and during all the delay
pending the appointment of a receiver
not solitary proposition or overture
was made by the debtors looking to any
settlement of their affairs or any effort
to in any way aid the creditors in saving
the contrary, the honest and upright
members of the firm, with the moral,
possible active support of the mortgage
and few others who had been led to be-
lieve that this honest patriach would
take care of them, commenced a SyS-
tematic effort to destroy the value of
the assets and 1t is only because he has
been closely watched by a number of

THE ANNUAL ADDRES s.
Thoughts, Review and Suggest
ions by Comm ander Wheelock.

Thoughts, Review and Suggest
ions by Commander WheeIock.
The annual address of Commander
Wheelock began with an expression of
his pleasure at the fact that the organ
ization had escaped the dangers of po-
litical misalliance. He said:
During the early part of the year--up
to the time of the national encampment
"a fear that the G. A. r. might be
wrecked by the politicians seemed to
possess the minds of good many peo-
pie in and out of the organization. We
are to be congratulated that this DEPART
ment did not in the slightest degree be-
come eStranged and that it was able to
furnish the national encampment an ex-
cellent solution of at least one portion
of the political dilemma by furnishing
cOmmander-in-chief who was out of
politics and true to the principles of the
II. A. X. In this connection l desire to
say that, in my judgment, there is no
citizen of this grand republic who has
better right to be in politics, to have
his opinion and express it, than the man
who placed his life on the altar Of his
country. He has, if he chooses, the
right TO run for office and get abused
the same as any other citizen, but we
must remember that the G. A. r. stands
upon this foundation alone, without
which it would totter to its fall.
''No officer or cOmrade shall in any
manner use this organization for
partisan purposes and no discussion of
partisan questions shall be permitted at
any of its meetings, nor shall any nomi-
nation for political office be made.
$50 let US as citizens take as active a
part in the questions that tend to the
good OF the country as any other citi-
gems, having and expressing our opin-
ions freely; but when we approach the
sacred precincts of the post, or the en-
campment. or assembly of any kind of
the g. A. r., let US say to ali partisan
questions and the political denominations

GOT IN THE WAY.
How Frank Ingraham Lost His
Life---The COrOner's Inquest.

Deputy Coroner Spring yesterday
held the inquest over the remains of
Frank M. Ingraham, who was killed by
a Short Line train in the vicinity of the
shops of the Milwaukee road in South
Minneapolis Wednesday night. The
evidence of a half dozen witnesses of
the sad occurrence was to the effect that
the deceased was standing on the track
apparently waiting for freight train
coming from an opposite direction Oh
parallel track to pass in order that he
might go to his boarding house at 2511
Twenty-third avenue south. The roar
of the two trains probably confused him
so that he did not apprehend the Short
Line train from the rear. The verdict
was that the deceased came to his death
through his own carelessness. He was
man thirty-tive years of age, who had
been in the city short time and had
been employed by the railroad company
in the capacity of a locomotive fireman.
His parents reside in Kalamazoo, Mich,
whittier his remains will probably be
sent. He has been married, but sep
arated from his wife about year ago.

FRAUD CLAIMED
In the Old, Old Story of Real
Estate Deal

Estate Deal.
James A. Fetterly has commenced an
action in the district court against
David S. Cherry to have celtlin deed,
transferring lot s, block 10, Oak Park
addition, to the defendant, declared
null and void, on account of fraud prac-
ticed by the defendant in obtaining said
deed. The plaintiff alleges that his
property in Oak Park addition, with the
improvements, was worth $4,000. and
that by fraudulent Misrepresentation
he was induced by the defendant
to trade the same for certain
lots in the city of Eau Clairel
Wis, and forty acres of land in Pepin
county, Wis. which was said to be
very valuable, but on Investigation he
finds that the lots in Eau Claire are
worth not to exceed $400, and that
the land in Pepin county is considered
almost worthless, and that the de-
PENDANT at the time the trade was con-
summated well knew that he was
practicing fraud and depriving plaintiff
of his property without giving him
any consideration for the same.

THEY WE'RE PLEASED.
Aid. L'HerauIt Has Another Hack
Bill for the Council.

Twenty-six aldermen yesterday WIS.,
tied the work house and partook of
plain and substantial repast supplied
by Supt. Gross, after which the new ad-
dition was carefully inspected. The
visit was made at the request of Aid.
L'Herault, chairman of the committee
on work house. He has been subjected
to some unpleasant criticisms concern
ing the amount of expenditures, but
yesterdays visit convinced the alder
men that the money of the city had been
carefully handled, and that the i'm
provements were of magnitude that
was not generally understood.
Incidentally, the aldermen visited the
site of the new pumping station at
Single creek, where the work of eX-
cavation for the new pumping station is
in operation. The beauty and fitness of
the location seemed to impress all very
favOrably.

Mr.. Woods Version.

To the Editor of the Globe.
Permit me to correct some errors
that have appeared in several dailies of
the Twin Cities, regarding my connec-
tons with different elements that are
seeking to obtain possession of the
museums in st. Paul and Minneapolis,
and the Hennepin Avenue theater.
First, regarding the proposition of Jacob
Lift d Co., which | was authorized to
make for them. This firm knowing the
fact that the lease of thirty years of the
Hennepin Avenue theater held by
Sackett q Virgins, and upon which
nearly $4,000 had been paid as
advance rent, creating an obstacle to
the equities of Sackett & Virgins in
said lease could be adjudicated and that
hence the affairs of Sackett & Virgins
and the theater company were so inter
woven that the only practical solution
of the difficulty was a proposition to
cover the entire costs of both concerns.
Now to refute some of the differences
and deductions presented in afore
mentioned erroneous statements / Will
give the proposition. j. %
To Verdine TrueSdell, Esq, Receiver
Sackett & Virgins. Dear Sir; We
herewith submit the following propo-
sition for the purchase Of the estate of
Sackett & Virgins, which comprises
the leases and fixtures of the museums
in st. Paul and Minneapolis, and the
lease of the Hennepin Avenue theater,
for which we offer S21, ZOO, $4,000 cash
balance in six quarterly payments. +
JACOB Lift d Co..
Ralph Whalen, Esq, Receiver Hen
nepin Avenue Theater Company. Dear
Sir: We herewith submit the following
proposition for the purchase of the as
sets of the Hennepin Avenue Theater
company. We will pay $1,000 cash and
assume all claims which have been adj
Indicated by the court as liens upon the
Hennepin Avenue theater building, and
also assume the $4,000 mortgage and
ground lease. JACOB Lift d Co.
1t being understood that both propo-
sitionS must be accepted. as the accept
ance of one is dependent on the other.
Now to analyZe these propositions. In
the first proposition for the museum the
offer of this firm is $4,000, $4,000 cash
and balance in six quarterly payments,
this being double the amount of any
other proposition, and the cash part
being $1,000 in excess of the amount of
any other proposition.
Upon what basis of reasoning any,
one can claim that a sale Of the museum
on an offer of $4,000 cash is better for
the creditors than an offer of $4,000,
$4,000 of which is cash, cannot figure
out, unless it is OH the assumption of
large equities in the lease of Hennepin
Avenue theater, as the equity then de-

capabilities are concerned the delegates
might be mistaken for prohibitioniStS,

dent. barring the unanimous action of

ness. including the election of officers,
and will wind up with Il grand camp

Thought from Young EIen.

Professor Henry Drsmmond, whose
"Natural Law in the Spiritual Worid'
made SO much stir in the world, is de-
scribed to be ''taii. slim, fair young
man, with trim rlustache and we'll
fitting frock coat, and resembling an
officer of the guards rather than a lee
turer at university" 1t seems to be
surprising to many that he should not be
elderly, specialized, shabby and cranky,
but the reasonable mind will admit that
the present is just the era to expect sound
Judgment and profound thought from
young men. In other ages young men
gave their youth to folly exclusively, and
were not in state Of health at the age
of 80 to see clearly or moralize effect
lively. Seventy years or SO gave man
authority as philosopher, but tie
modern system of college athletics keeps
a mans physical health strong while his
mind develops, SO that, unless our col
legians are wilfully vicious, the coming
century should produce finer set Of
minds and bodies than did ancient
Greece.-Pittsburg Bulletin.

Chemistry a Delightful Recreation.

"When you1gster,'' says Mr.. Mat
thieu Williams, II amused myself by
making saturated solutions of alum in
hot water, placing cinders, etc., in these,
and setting them aside to COOL The
cindss became coated with beautiful
crystals, and appeared like choice min
eral specimens. Baskets and other de-
vices in covered wire were similarly
coated. Sugar was crystallized, beauti-
full crystals of sulphur, made by slowly
evaporating solution Of sulphur in BIZ
sulphide of carbon, and another form Of
sulphur crystals by fusing sulphur in a
crucible or gallipot, breaking the crust
which first forms on cooling and then
pitching out the liquid. A nest of beau
tiful crystals remains.
81 refer to these crudities in order to
suggest that crystal making should be
reinstated as a popular scientific recrea-
ton. The alums, which are so numerous
and so varied in color, would alone af-
ford material for a little museum; but
the amateur availing himself of the
achievements of modern chemistry would
find the field Of recreation to be praeti-
cally boundless and the pursuit both ele-
giant and instructive. Among novelties
are.the isomorphous double chlorides Of
alkalies, iron, and of the alkaline earth
metals, such as chromium, aluminium,
magnesium, beryllium, etc. Their col
ors are magnificent; some of them are
described by DR.. Neumann as crystalliz-
ing in splendid octahedrons, resembling
large diamonds nd rejecting light with
similar brillianc They are che rnicaI
first cousins to tIe alums referred to
above. From these the ambitious anna
teur might proceed to artificial gems
some of which, now within the reach of
chemical skill, are quite equal to the
natural specimens. n-Arkansaw Trav-
