Cracked Nuts.

A correspondent of the Boston In
vestigator asks:
"Would it be as we'll for the United
States to be where she was, say previous
to the war--first class mechanics earn
ing 50 per week, with -four S1s per
barrel, and everything in like rntio?"
This nut is already cracked and found
bad, in the fact that previous to the war
-four was cheaper than ever it has been
since, and the querist never paid $l8
for barrel of flour before the war, I'M
less it was in California in an early day
when the price of provisions was enor-
mousIy high. This writer supported q
family before and during the war, nnd
the highest price we ever paid for a
barrel of flour was SIG, i'll 1864, which
was about four times what it was worth
previous to 1861. Give US another one
with kernel in it.

AMUSEMENT NOTES.

The Johnson & Slavin Minstrel COM
pany opened to full house at the Grand
last evening. Like all modern perform
ances of this character, there was less
minstrel than circus in it; yet it was
pleasing, and the audience enjoyed a
series of good laughs. There were some
new Jokes and others that have come
down through the ages. The opening
act presented an allegGrical and Spectac-
ular pageant intended TO illustrate the
birth. rise and triumph Of minstrelSy,
but more properly pictured the rise and
fall Of minStrelSy, for there is no min
StrelSy these days except in name.
The singing was good. The songs The
Convict and the Bird" by VIII Stevens,
and "Helly Riley" by Carol johnson,
were well received. The taking feat
ures of the performance were Hugh
Dougherty's and Jay Quigley's political
debate, and the featS i'll bicYcliSm by
the Selbini family. Bob Slavin under
took to roast over his last seasons chest
nut about the door bell. but it melted in
his mouth and the audience failed to
catch it. The cOstuming is unique and
handsome.

WINDING UP A FAIR.
Popular Favorites and Ticket
holders Who Drew Prizes.

The principal feature at the st.
Michael church fair last evening was a
short address by ID. w. Lawler, who
spoke most eloquentIy and interestingly
upon the history of the early Catholic
church in America. The speaker re-
viewed the earlier events in American
history, showing that the most impor-
tant discoveries were made by Catholics.
He also recalled the history Of the ad-
.Yenturous fathers of the church who
pushed their way east, west. north.
and south into an unknown
country, building missions and preach
ing the gospel TO the Indians. Although
it was the seventh night of the fair, the
interest seemed not to have abated. A
good many articles were voted to vari-
Gus persons, and when it was announced
from the platform that the polls would
be closed in so many minutes, 1t was in
spirit of good-natured rivalry that the
friends of. the various candidates exert
edcevery effort to secure more votes for
their favOrites.
The silver water pitcher for the most
popular blacksmith was secured by j,
II. Berry, who received 436 votes.
Three hundred and ninety-Seven votes
gained for Lucy Mcmahon the bridal
doll. Miss Redding, who was voted the
pretiest girl i'm the parish, received 3l5

EPIDEMIC DISEASES.
Figures From the Report of the
State Health Board.

A meeting Of the state board of health
was held yesterday in the governors
rooms at the capitol, and was attended
by Drs. D. W. Hand, st. Paul, presi-
dent; F. Staples, WinOna; w. Smith.
Duluth: F. Ii. Millard, st. Paul. and c.
NJ. Hewitt, Red Wing. secretary. The
business of the board WAS the adoption
of the biennial report presented by
Secretary Hewitt. The report reviewed
the work performed and legislation Sc
cured in past years, and stated:
Emigration naturally interferes with
your own control Of infectious diseases.
We have to-day i'll town under control
Df board of health an outbreak of
smallpox" There had, however, been
no spread of this dreaded disease, and
Dr.. Hewitt cited this case as good eX-
ample of efficient work which might be
performed by the township boards.
There are .3SS local boards OF health
in Minnesota in direct correspondence
and cooperation with the state board.
These boards consist Of two classes:
First, village. borough and city boards
of health: second, township boards.
There are POS of the aforementioned
bodies. The correspondence with the
local tOardS of both classes from JAN
II
by 2,604 letters received and 1889 an
swers. To this must be added
1856. letters to and from other
9he board OF health officers in or outside
che state making q total of 500 letters.
The number of circulars distributed
@urIng the same time in the general de-
Oartment of the board was $4,000; and in
the vital statistics department, from
March Z, 1881, to Oct. l. there were 635
letters, 49, ,0C0 blanks and 99,2S0 circu-
laIs distributed. Taking epidemic ais
eases from Dec. l, 1856, TO Dec. l, 1887,
diptheria occurred in 100 localities, 46
counties, there being 5Se5 eases and IA
deaths. OF scarlet fever there were 500
cases, "a deaths, occurring in 40 locali-
ties and p counties. From Dec. l, 1887.
to Oct. l. 1883, of diptheria there were
559 cases and 213 deaths, in 142 localities
and 50 counties. OF scarlet fever there
were I79 cases and 20 deaths, Origlnat-
ing in So localities and % counties.
These reports are exclusive of cases at
st. Paul, Minneapolis, Duluth, Still
water and WinOna. Dr.. Hewitt con-
cluded: The table submitted plainly
show that is is other diseases than i'll
fectiOus which cause sickness and
death rate. Among them are two
classes of cases which must be
studied hereafter-tuberculOS and
the diarrhRaS, particularly the
series classified cholera infantum. The
enormous mortality under five. or, bet
ter, under two years, and of the speci-
fed cases under one year, iDfantile de-
biIity demands a serious and a more
systematic study than hitherto. | am
so impressed with the Importance OF
this matter that | shall ask the Ameri-
can Public Health association to ar
range for a careful review. and hope to
lay the foundation for some improve
ment upon the experience of representa-
tive men who will be there. My own
studies incline me to believe that we do
not look closely enough for causes

INSURANCE FACILITIES.
Amendments Proposed to the Law
Now in Force.


The insurance laws of the state are
glaringiy defective in several vital
poiuts. No one is better aware of this
than State Insurance Commissioner
Shandrew. whose duty ii is to admit
companies to do business ia the state
and generally overlook their tranSac-
tions. Mr.. Shandrew Is particularly
desirous that the laws regulating the
government of these companies should
be amended. and that more power
should be vested in the state insurance
commissioner. At present any company
complying with the conditions laid down
by the law can claim to do business in the
state, and the insurance commissioner
is compelled to grant license whether
his opinion is favorable to the company
or not. With his experience of the
working of the law as it now stands
and his knowledge of what is requisite
for the proper government of insurance
business Commissioner ShandreW has
framed amendments to the law, which
will be submitted TO the legislature of
next year. In regard to these proylS-
ions he remarked yesterday: Il have
drawn up an act amending the law
governing fire insurance. and also
an act amending law as to assessment
insurance companies. The amend
ment to the law governing tire
insurance will require that all fires
occurring in the state must be reported
to this department, together with the
cause OF the CriginatiOn, kind of prop
erty. name of the owner, amount of in
surance and all minor details which,
when condensed, will provide statistics
of great usefGlneSS to Insurance cor
pOrationS in the future. In regard to
the assessment law, | have changed it
almost entirely, so as to make 1T, III my
opinion. far more reliable and perma-
nent. 1t will lean more towards the
protection of the public than
The present law. The chief
provisions are that in all of
cases the officers of such organizations
shall give sufficient bonds for the faith
full discharge of their duties, and that
the funds provided for the payment of
claims shall be deposited in some bank
or trust, beyond the reach of the
officers. Before any organization can
De licensed to do business. it shall have
acertain amount of insurance applied
for, and at any rate there shall have
been paid sufficient to meet Il claim. L
have exempted from the operation OF
the IlaW all present organizations
and secret and fraternal societies con
filming insurance to their own MEM
hers ;,
