NEW H0RMANHA HALL.
The Beautiful Norwegian Temple Of
Society.
LAYING THE CORNER STONE.
Addresses by the President, Mayor
kmes, Gov. MeGill and Hon.
E. M. Wilson.

The corner stone was laid yesterday
of handsome building that will grace
the corner of Third street and Twelfth
avenue south and be known to the
world as NOrmanna hall. 1t will stand
monument to the progress, thrift and
good citizenship of the Norwegian pop
ulation of Minneapolis. Two years ago
prominent Norwegians felt the need of
a building of this character, where they
could meet their countrymen socially
and which would also be an ornament
and an investment, and the first steps
were taken. G. F. Struck drew the
plans for the new building. and the Or
ganlzation was made to push it to COM
pletion. Stock was subscribed, and
various entertainments devised to raise
the necessary funds, among them being
the fair last year, at which the GLOBE,
III test of popularity, distanced all
competing newspapers. The land was
purchased, and finally the foundations
completed. Yesterday witnessed the
first ceremony.athe laying of the
corner stone. For this event elab-
and parade organized. Upon an oc-
caSion of this kind there is no jealousy
among the Scandinavian nationalities,
and yesterday the procession represent
ed the Trinity, Nora, Svea and Dania.
Every Scandinavian society in the city
participated, and the civic and military
bodies made creditable display. After
passing about the city the line
drew up at the union depot,
where several visitors from st.
Paul were received, Gov. A. II. McGill
being among the number. The march
was resumed and ended at the corner to
be occupied by the building. Here an
immense crowd had assembled, includ-
ing many ladies. As the prominent
guests ascended the platform they were
greeted with hearty cheers. Music by
the NOrmanna band opened the eXer-
cIses. +. n. HuSher, president of the
NOrmanna society, delivered an address,
in which he detailed the history of the
society.

the fine building to bear their name.

sion of which Mayor Ames was intro
duced and received with a round of ap-
plause. He delivered brief address of
welcome, and referred to the large
Norwegian element, which had become
valued and respected addition to our
population. The Norwegian band
played an air, and Gov. Nc
Gill was brought out and re-
ceived with applause. His short
address was complimentary to the
Norwegian population. and referred to
his acquaintance and intercourse with
them. After more music, Hon. E. NJ.

A NEAT LITTLE SCHEME
TO Keep Up the MiIIionaires of the
County Offices,

The latest Republican scheme to
thwart the will of the people of this
county is to elect men to the legislature
who are pledged to defeat any bill
which reduces the compensation of the
county officers.
This scheme is intended to defeat the
movement inaugurated by the taXpay-
ers of Hennepin county, asking to have
the clerk of court, sheriff and register
of deeds paid salaries of about $1,000
each, and to allow the board of county
commissioners to approve the pay roll
for their clerk hire, and then to compel
the incumbents of these offices to pay
into the county treasury the fees re-
celVed, which at present constitute their
compensation.
The law now is that each of these
officers shall present to the board of
county commissioners at their first
meeting in January of each year a
sworn statement of all fees received by
them during the preceding year. These
officers, however, have neglected to do
this, and the county commissioners
have never made any complaint to the
court in the matter, so that the
taxpayers have been unable to find out
exactly what these offices were paying.
ceipts amount to an enormous sum and
that they will exceed the following es-
Inmates: Clerk of court, $4,000; sheriff,
$4,000, and register of deeds, $4,000.
The sheriff in addition to this amount
draws from the county treasury $50 per
month each for two turnkeys for the
county Jail, and both the clerk and the
sheriff draw So per day each for a dep
uty in each of the four court rooms
while court is in session, which is near
ly all the time, although it is very sell
dom that more than two deputy clerks
and two deputy sheriffs are in attend
ance on the four court rooms.
The legislative ticket which it is said
has been made up in the interests of the
persons who expect to be elected to
these offices, and who are said to be
pledged to vote against any reduction
in the compensation received by the in
cumbents of these offices, are as fol-
lows: Twenty-eighth district, E. NJ.
johnson; Twenty-ninth district, Judson
n. Cross, Benjamin p. Shuler, j. NJ.
Underwood, Sever Ellingson, Ward T.

man, Col. Fred Hooker and Capt. Ed U.

shown, and as the act closes the ship
takes fire. In the next act the camp of
the ships lost passengers in the ice in
the Arctic seas is shown. Icebergs, the
sea, the beautiful northern lights and the
phenomenon of aurora borealis in all
its Splendor are included in this act.
The preparation for these two scenes
alone has required two weeks.
When ''StOrm-Beaten" was first pro-
duced at the Union Square theater in
New York it took the city by storm and
crowded the theater for weeks. 1t is
one of the greatest successes of Union
Square, a theater famous for its success
full productions. The story of the play
is taken from Robert Buchanan'S weird
but intensely dramatic novel of "God
and the Man." Every act is full
of interest; every situation is
strong and thrilling. The chief
characters are members of two old Eng
llSh families who are neighborS but Bit
ter enemies. Christian (Mr. Hamilton)
is the hero, and Priscilla, beautiful
young Christian girl, the daughter of a
blind preacher, is the heroine. Miss
Wellesly will appear as Priscilla. The
struggle of Christians desire for revenge
against the influence of Priscilla, his
sweetheart, who believes that revenge
is not Christian-like, forms the central
action of the play.
Bells ringing out the first moments
after midnight on Christmas morning
are heard in the first act. and again just
as the last act closes, ringing out the
first glad moments of the next years
Christmas morning.
The first performance of "Storm-
Beaten" tonight is also the first per-
formance of the drama in the city.
''Richelieu, with rich scenery and cos
tuning, is announced for next week at
the Peoples. Macbeth" for the near
future.

MEN OF MINNEAPOLIS.

Since Mayor Ames decided to draw
the line at personalities, it appears that
certain people are not indulging in the
pleasure of roasting his honor.
1t is understood that the Tribune re-
porter who imagined that Ida Lang
bent over Scanlan's body like "a widow
looking at her dead warrior just home
from battle'' has been assigned to re-
port Democratic meetings this fall.
The Minnehaha Driving Park asso-
citation has found r. F. Jones too valua-
BILE man to part with. The fact that
there wouldn't be any races if he was
allowed to resign as secretary seems to
have suddenly aroused appreciation of
his services.
Wilyum Hennery Eustis is walking on
air now, and it is understood that spe-
cial meeting of the Union league will
soon be called to enable the members to
grasp the hand that grasped. the hand of
James Il. Blaine, of Maine.

THE GRAND is OPENED.
Jarbeau Inaugurates the Season
to a Brilliant Audience.

to a Brilliant Audience.
The season is on. Last night the
Grand opera opened with a brilliant
audience, who evidently enjoyed the
initial performance very much. if ap-
plause counts for anything. The bill
was a musical comedy entitled "Star-
light" with the well known cantatrice,
Vernona Jarbeau, as the star. Miss
Jarbeau has also collabOIated with the
authors of the play, and starlight" is
a brilliant olla-pordrida of the best and
brightest bits Of comic opera. The vocal
excellence of Miss Jarbeau's company
cannot be questioned, and Miss Jarbeau
acted, danced and sang in way that
captured her audience from the start.
She is possessed of much personal
magnetism and is a beautiful woman.
Her limitations of Theo and her French
songs were features of the evening.
and her topical song, Its Eenough,
Don't You Think" with it's
local illusions, brought down the
house. Miss Jarbeau's work in
starlight is as good as her
best work in comic opera, and her ell
tertainment is a winner, both finan-
cially and artistically. The scenes of
the play are laid in Italy and are full
of hilarity. Of the company, Mr..
Hatch, a clear-voiced tenor, and Mr..
Clarke, clever low comedian, deserve
special mention; while Martin O'Neill,
dancer pre-eminent, should not be for
gotten. The exquisite songs of Miss
Bessie Cleveland and Miss Amy Brooks
were also deservedly well rendered.
"Starlight" will run three nights longer,
with Wednesday matinee.
Haverly'S minstrelS will follow Yer
mona Jarbeau at the Grand. The COM
pany is the strongest ever put on the
road by this popular manager, and in

The pleasant surprise she had in
store for her brother had an unex-
pected effect upon him. Instead of
looking as though he was tickled to
death, he grew black in the face with
anger. He is something of a rounder
and knew the colonel by reputation
very well. Finally he said:
. "Of course, it isn't your fault, sis.
Pm Geuced glad you didn't go riding

"No.' 81
There it was, the whole story In a
nutshell, and it was not necessary to
ask any more questions. Finally, the
poor girl told her story in broken
English, with strong Scandinavian
accent. She had been betrayed and
deserted. She had struggled along,
trying to support herself and babe, and
finally was forced to appeal for charity.
Supt. Curtiss, of the supervisors of the
poor, was called, but said: 81 can do
nothing for her." The mute appeal for
aid in the agonized woman's face
moved the hearts of the policemen,

liberal response. The addresses of
some charitably disposed ladies were
given her, and it is to be hoped that by
this time the poor mother has been re-
lieved of the burden she can no longer

Perhaps the narration of this incident,
not an uncommon one by any means,
may attract the attention of those who
are seeking to alleviate suffering and
want, and impress the necessity of the
Establishment of founding hospital.

as are disappearances such as that
of the Farragut, it must be admitted
that there is something even more per-
picking in the discovery of defelicts
abandoned so incomprehensibly as was
the vessel here referred to. 1t should
be added that she was not leaking, nor
were her spars sprung or strained; and
no reason could be perceived in any,
thing about her for the disappearance
of her crew and officers.
