THE MILWAUKEE & ST. PAUL.
1t Sets the Style, as Usual, With
Vestibuled Trains.

The Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
enjoys the reputation of always being
the first in all things that conduce to
public. When the subject of vestibuled
trains to the Northwest was first sug-
gested the Milwaukee & st. Paul was
the first to jump in and put the idea into
practice, and is, therefore, now running
these wonderful veStibuled trains, as it
has been for some time past. People
have for weeks gathered in the union
depot in st. Paul at the hour of the az
IL st. Paul trains to see these
beautifully and ingeniOusly con-
structed cars that make up
what is known as the vestible
trains between st. Paul and Chicago.
These splendid trains on the Milwaukee
Il ST. Paul that have been running into
st. Paul now for some time are just out
of the Pullman shops and everything is
new throughout. The seats in the
SleeperS are upholstered with plush,
one car in each train being in old gold
color and the other in peacock blue.
The best Wilton carpets cover the floors
and the seats are of the new style OF
high modern backs with head rest. The
smoking rooms are paneled
IN ANTIQUE OAK,
and on every side mirrors of plate glass
extend in endless vista all that comes
in their range. There are two large
state rooms to each sleeper and
separate toilets for ladies and
gentlemen. The elegant and spacious
dining cars have not their equal
anywhere, and far surpass anything of
the kind on any road between ST. Paul
and Chicago. The cost of furnishing
the dining car alone was over $50, 600.
Two sections in this car may beinclOSed
with curtains, and thus supper and
breakfast are served out of and into St.
Paul and Chicago on trains going in
either direction. Nothing has been
omitted to make these cars complete,
and their furnishings are all of the most
modern description. The meals served
on these vestibuled trains of the Mil
waukee & st. Paul road are not sur
passed by any hotel in the land. All this
superiority is characteristic of the Mil
waukee q st. Paul road, which is al
ways in the van. II, hereafter, any
thing is discovered or invented that is
still better than the vestibuled train.
the Milwaukee & st. Paul will be the
first to have it,

THE RULING PASSION
Strong in Europe-A Cable From
I'll, S. FairchiId in Berlin.

II. -. Il alfcn1lu III bcfiiH.
There is at least one man whose faith
in the present and future greatness of
st. Paul is of such character that it is
not shadowed by residence in the gay
capitals of continental Europe, the
pomp and splendOr of which have
caused many an American to forget his
native country and toady to the titled
crowd. of which he would fain be one.
The gentleman referred to is 81. s.
Fairchild, who went across the
water in search of health and recre-
alton, and found plenty of both.
While sizing up the carnival in Flor
ence he came to the conclusion
that the clothes of the half-fed signorS
would fit better were homeopathic doses
of Minnesota wheat, properly prepared,
administered to the wearerS at frequent
intervals. He visited Rome and calcu-
lated that the site of the Coliseum
would not sell for as much per front
foot as certain realty in st. Paul in
which he is interested. Then he made
inquiry as to the crop prospects this
year, and his conclusions are expressed
in the following cablegram received by
the GLOBE yesterday:
BERLIN, May 22.-To the GLOBE, st. Paul,
Mimi: Wheat will this year touch one
dollar and half per GENITAL. Calculate for
yourself the effect on St Paul real estate and

BASKED IN THE SUNSHINE.
For the First Time This Season
Outdoor Life Was DeIi0htfuI.

Outdoor Life Was Delightful.
HabitueS of the hotels could not con-
tent themselves within four walls yes
terday, and the proprietors obligingly
placed chairs and settees at the disposal
of all who wished to indulge in the I'M
usual luxury of sun bath. From an
early hour i'll the morning until dark
ness spread its wings over the scene,
there was quiet but enthusiastic
gathering of weather prophets on
the pOrticO of the Merchants.
and none of the seats were left
un0ccupied long. In front of the RYAN
on Sixth street it looked like old times
to see Ticket Agent George B. Clason,
of the Milwaukee road, on the iron set
tee, behind which was bank of choice
flowers, exchanging salutations with his
hosts of friends, while on the Robert
street sidewalk long lines of chairs were
pre-empted by guests of the house, and
considerable story telling was indulged
IN. Not to be behind the other hotel
men, Col. Monfort, at the
Windsor, placed all the available chairs
at the disposal of his guests and
the courtesy was appreciated in the full
est sense. One or two venturesome
spirits made their appearance in lay
over straw hats from last season, and of
course were subjected to running fire
of comments, in which gums, hey there,
forcing the season and the like predOmi-
mated. But the most daring individual
was ayoung man about town, who made
his bow for the warm season attired
in very gauZy pantaloons, and a waist
coat and sack coat of light brown
silk. As he passed up Third street he
was subjected to very critical scrutiny
by representatives of both sexes, but he
did not seem at all disturbed by the SEN
sation he was creating. 1t was diff
cult matter to find anybody in The hotel
rotundas, while the exterior of the most
popular hostelries presented a de-
cidedly midsummer aspect.

FOR THE MADISON SCHOOL.
An Entertainment Given by the
Pupils at Market Hall.

Several hundred people were in Mar
ket hall last night to witness an enter
tainment given by school boys and girls
ofthe Madison school. 1t consisted of
musical selections, recitations, gym
nastic exercises, doll drill, etc, and
was gotten up in the interests of the
Madison school library, to which
the proceeds were devoted. The
entertainment opened with a
May chorus, and was followed
by recitation by Maud Dick. Then
came the doll drill, after which Albert
Richardson recited Carl Dunder'S story
of how America was discovered. After
a song an instrumental duet by Alice
and Nellie Officer was well received.
The ''Pansy Heads then gave an eXhi-

Barbara Frietchir," after which twen-
ty-four lads and lasSes gave .'Sumthin'

Song'' by the chorus. The little folks
acquitted themselves very creditably
and many Of them were awarded with
large bOuQuetS.
