AN INTERESTING EPISODE.

Mrs. @. r. Palmer and arthur
Worth:@& ssttun at War Over
Home.
The residents out on and around Mt.
Curve avenue are discussing some
what peculiar war which is now being
carried on by Mrs. G. r. Palmer and
Arthur Worthington. 1t appears that
Worthington boughtup the mortgages
on Mrs. Palmer's place, 1000 Mt. Curve
avenue, which is veritable garden of
Eden, and at the time for redemption
ordered her to vacate. This she re-
fused to do. While she was down
town Worthington entered the place, set
Mrs. Palmer's furniture out on the lawn
and locked himself in. When Mrs.
Palmer returned and saw the state of
affairs she was wild. She battered down
one door with an ak, but could not get
in. Then she began to scream, and the
neighborS rushed to her assistance.
Mrs. Palmer finally gained an entrance
and the tongue-laShing Worthington re-
ceived he will remember for some time.
Mrs. Palmer's friends wanted to tar and
feather Worthington, but did not. Soon
Worthington's attorney put in an
appearance and tried to settle mat
tiers, but he was unsuccessful. Wnen
night came Mrs. Palmer and Mrs. Albee
Smith camped in one room, while
Worthington and policeman rusti-
Gated in another. All ate breakfast III
the house, and then Mrs. Palmer and
Mr.. Worthington, after placing their
representatives in the place, started
out to hunt UP their attorney and begin
ejectment proceedings against each
other. Interesting developments may
be expected,

pointed a laboring man to renumera-
tive position. What if he did?

1--WE pOSlliOn. w udG IL ne QlQ?
1t is also said that in consideration of
this appointment the leaders
agreed to turn over the labor vote to
Fletcher for congress and McGill for
governor. Dollars to dimes that the
goods will never be delivered. The ap-
polntment of one or dozen of laboring
men to office is not what the laboring
men are organized for. They are Or
ganized for higher and nobler pur-
pose, which the ''leaders' will find out
in the near future If they resort to any
chicanery.
The act of McGill, allowing "H. F.
10! " to become g law, and many other
things Which the governor did, were of
more injury to laboring men than can
be well imagined. The "leaders F" can
not excuse themselves by saying it is
all newspaper talk, and that they are in
no way to blame for it. This denial will
hardly be taken in good faith, be-
cause no word of contradiction has
come from them to the allegation which
appeared in their personal organ, the
journal. This was not the case, how
ever, when A. T. Ankeny was reported
in the Star as saying that Mr.. PoWderly
said: 1--WE count DR.. Ames with our
friends and would support him for any
office" 1t will be remembered that
onenof the ''leaders' fastened round
to a newspaper Office to as
sure the people that ''Mr. Powderly
never said any such a thing" This
shows the difference in the way it is
done. If the leaders attempt to use
the power of the order to secure the
reelection of McGill and ultimately for
their own ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, they will
find themselves in a hotter box than did
Powderly when he tried to defeat Con-
gresham Carlisle. JOHN O'HERN.

MERRIAM AND DOODLE 3
To Garry Hennepin and Make a
Senator of Frank Davis.

The presence of the Doodle carriers
in the interest of Banker Merriam is rap
idly making itself felt in Hennepin
county, and the McGillites are losing
: their nerve, in the face of the impend-
ing danger. Their own candidate, they
say, has no Doodle to distribute
at the work being done by
the golden archers'' of the Others.
Some time ago, as the politically in
formed will remember,F. F. Davis spoke
very confidently of ''my candidacy"
views being considered in certain con-
tingencies, which have not yet arisen.
AT that time, Mr.. Davis was posing as
candidate for governor. while Ed Day.
export was doing nothing and Robert
Jamlson was preparing to re-
tire to the shades of private
life. Then, quicker than a bolt
of lightning, came the change. Davis
is booked to speak over the state, DAY.
export braces up and takes prominent
part in politics, Jamison comes out for
county attorney, and through it all Sam
Nichols comes slyly to Minneapolis
and is closeted for hours at time with
Davenport. These are the facts, and
this is what the anti-Merriam kickers
say:
Davis, Davenport, Tim Byrnes. JAM
ison, and others have entered into an
alliance with Merriam to give him the
vote of Hennepin county Sept 5, and as
part of the scheme they have all come
out actively into politics to keep their
hands in. In return, Frank Davis
vaulting ambition is to be gratified
by-what? No less exalted a posi-
ton than that of United States
senator to succeed Sabin. And in the
meantime the yellowboys of Merriam,
full weight and newly coined, are doing
the work silently and expeditiously in
Hennepin county. But what nobody
seems to know is the alliance Merriam
has made in the congressional fight. 1t is
certain that, inasmuch as Loren Fletcher
is the power behind Judge Rea,
Rear and McGill will fight together as
far as may be, but whether Capt. Snider
will fight on his own hook, or combine
with either Merriam OF Scheffer, is not
to be seen in the backs of the cards as
the political players hold them.

A MAGNIFICENT BLOCK.
Yesterdays Swell Reception at
the New Glass Block.

Yesterdays Swell Reception at
the New Glass Block.
Ladies-pretty ladies and plain ones;
ladies. young, old and middle-aged,
thronged the new glass block yesterday
afternoon and evening and admired the
magnificent structure and filling of
everything ladies love, admire and must
have. Donaldson & Co. have not only
gathered together a stock that will
compare favorably with any of the
empOriums of Sixth avenue, New York,
but have gathered it into superb
structure, such as Macy or Wanamaker
might envy. Yesterday it was thrown
open to the ladies particularly and the
public in general, and the invitation was
generally accepted. During the day
and evening thousands visited the great
emporium, and. while listening to the
strains of the DAM orchestra, inspected
the complete stock and the perfect ar
engagements.
The elegant new building rears its
height of iron and plate glass five
stories above ground, with basement
and sub-basement, and covering 115X132
feet of ground. Inside in its various
departm one may find toys, teas,
coffees,. spices, crockery, silver
WStlC, WOOuCilW Ilu-
ware, dry goods, laces. no.
tons. uphoIsteries, draperies, cloaks,
shawls, millinery, carpets and
and furniture. Two superb fast pas
senger elevators carry passengers up
and down the building, and another ele-
vator is used exclusively for freight.
Change carriers, run by electricity, con-
meet every floor with the cashiers desk.
At the opening yesterday afternoon the
store was packed by one of the mons
fashionable crowds of shoppers
ever brought together in Minneapolis.
AS one entered the main door the eye
rested on balcony in the rear, pro-
fusely decorated with rare plants, in
which was stationed DanZ's orchestra,
which discoursed the sweetest music.
This balcony is to be used as a ladies'
waiting and reception parlOr. At night,
when brilliantly illuminated by cleo
tricity, the effect was even more pleas
ing, and the great store was the center
of attraction all evening.
During the evening Officer Void in
vestigated the shooting, and finally
found that young SON of Baldwin
Brown, residing on the corner of
Seventh avenue southeast and Fourth
street, had been practlcing with a
small target rifle at the time he (Wold)
was shot. The boy admitted that he
had been shooting, but denied having
shot the officer. AS the bullet taken
from Wold's head just fitted the young
mans gun and was of the same kind
as found in his possession, there seemed
to be but little doubt but that the Brown
boy was the offender. His rifle was
confiscated and taken to police head
quarters, where it will remain. Com
plants have been made in regard to the
boy before. and it is now extremely
probable that he will discharge no more
firearms inside the city limits.

SHOT AN OFFICER,
A Mysterious AssaiIant Puts a
Bullet in a PoIiceman's Head.

Patrolman Oldin Void, of the East
side station, was the victim of a mys-
FERROUS shooting yesterday, and the only
wonder is that he was not instantly
killed. As it was, he Will be laid up
for only short time. He left his home,
SIS Fourth street southeast, at 2:3O yes
terday afternoon to go the Exposition
with his wire, who had gone on ahead
of him. While crossing Seventh ave-
nue. south he felt blow in the back
of his head, and for a moment
thought some one had hit him with
stone. Putting his hand to his head. he
found it covered with blood, which
ooZed from small wound about two
inches above and to the left of the right
ear. Picking up his hat, Void found a
small bullet hole in it. A University
car was passing, and the conductor,
seeing that something was wrong, got
off and took the patrolman to the East
side station. DR.. Ames was sum-
moned, and removed the bullet, a
twenty-five caliber. 1t had passed
through the officers hemlet and buried
itself under the skin next to the skull.
which it bruised trifie. So far it is a
mystery where the bullet came from, as
no report was heard. The officer thinks
the bullet was fired by some small boy
from a target-gun

Republican Caucuses To-night---Mc-
Gill and Labor--.General City z.
Politics.

The Democratic state convention, af
ter naming, through the several judi
cial districts, sixteen members of the
central committee, conferred on Hon.
E. M. Wilson, the nominee for gov
ernor. the privilege of naming the other
three. Since that time. the Republican
press has appointed for Mr.. Wilson
four separate committees, and has
insisted they are right. M. w.
Glenn is foremost named, on their
lists, and for some reason the Repub-
llcan press is extremely anxious to see
Mr. Glenn appointed. j. N. Castle, of
Saltwater, is named in nearly every list,
and <. w. Durant, also of Saltwater,
has been given place, while Mayor
Smith and Judge G. E. Flandrau. of st.
Paul, have been on several lists. p.
B. Winston, of Minneapolis, and
Senator Peter Nelson, of Red
Wing have also been accorded
the honor. In the meantime Mr.. Will
son has made no appointments. He
has listened attentivelyto this delega
ton urging the appointment of one man,
and to that delegation vehemently pro-
another man. In the end he will prob
ably appoint acommittee that will meet
his own views, without regard to what
any faction may think of it. That is
MIR. Wilson's way of doing things, and
his friends will and the party must &C
cept them.
Don't appoint so and So" urges
politician, ''or the entire Ames faction
Will be down upon you"

this kind of bombardment, but has made

pointment," he said to GLOBE re-
porter yesterday. There is no hurry

that date is agreeable. Before that
time, probably on Tuesday, will an
nounce the members it was given me to
appoint
1t is now generally conceded to have
been an error on the part of the conven-
to have imposed the duty on the head of
the ticket. There is not prominent
party worker in the state, such as would
be OF value on the committee, who has
not already allied himself to one or an
other faction and in the interest of har-
mony it is difficult matter to select
men and avoid all offense. MIR. Wilson
will simply make the best of it, under
the circumstances.

The convention which is to place in

the county and legislative offices will
be held Monday, and the primaries
to choose the delegates will be
held this evening. 1t is doubtful
whether, when the full list
of delegates is known tonight,
it will indicate any particular result.
There are so many states in the field
and SO many different sets of delegates
that the combination will be difficult to
read. The candidates for sheriff have
selected sets for the various precincts.
but independent tickets will be run in
many cases, where voters OBJ
ject to states. The combination
ON the sheriffs' delegates are many
and varied, and it will be a
wise candidate who can read his own
nomination, with the delegates in plain
view. In some parts of the city, where
the fight is sharply drawn on county at
torney, the result will be an

HAS DONE SOME SERVICE.
Why j. Nj. Underwood Claims an
Office.

j. M. Underwood, the president of
the Harrison, Morton and Eye G. A. r.
club, is candidate for the legislature
from the Eleventh ward. A day or two
ago, an Eleventh ward Republican told
him that since he had only been men,
Der of the Republican party for about
six weeks, it was in rather bad taste
for him to be pushing himself
to the front for an Office, when there
were so many Republicans who had
worked for the party for years who had
never even had a smell of an office.
Underwood, however, seems to think
differently about the matter, for he is
reported as making the following an
swer: 81 know that it has been
said that l only Joined the
Republicans because there was chance
to ride into Office on the shoulders of
the old soldiers, but want it under
stood that have done more for the Re-
publican party in the last three weeks
than any Republican in the Eleventh
ward has done in lifetime"
1t this is SO the Eleventh ward Repub-
licans should give him an office by all
means.
