RECEIVER GRANTED
To Investigate the Business G
the PEOPLES Theater.

To Investigate the Business OF
the Peoples Theater.
Some time ago an application was filed
in court by ex-Manager Wilson for the
appointment of a receiver for the Peo-
pies theater, and yesterday Judge Kelly
decided in favor ofithis course of action.
In reaching this conclusion the court
said:
LAS the property involved is peculiar
in its nature, great care must be eX-
ercised in the selection of person
proper to he placed in charge. Ii the
parties cannot agree upon such receiver,
further application may be made to the
court, with such information as the
character and nature of the property
affected and such suggestions as to the
person to be named as receiver, as will
enable the court to act advisedly in the
premises"
1--WE will now be enabled to have the
merits of our controversy brought out, )"
said Manager Walker last evening, but
there will be no cessation of business at
the Peoples theater. Should it be de-
cided by the receiver, when appointed,
that a sale of the property is necessary,
we will put III bid for it, or consent to
its disposal at a handsome profit if some
other syndicate is prepared to furnish
the necessary capital"

GOV. RAMsEY's BIRTHDAY.
Past the Allotted Three-Score and

Yesterday was the seventy-third an
niversary of the birth of Hon. Alexan-
der Ramsey, but few people who see
him and converse with him would think
that he had seen so many years. He is,
so far as can be observed, hale and
hearty, and as full of humor and merri-
ment as ever. The troubles and annoy
ances of life have left no observable de-
fects upon his disposition. Age hath
not wthered" or married his pleasant
ways, and to-day he is the same agreea-
bic, cOmpanionable gentleman that ne
was years ago. All day yesterday he
was receiving the congratulations OF
his friends and nei6hbors who called
him to pay their respects. He has filled
many prominent positions in life, and
all rejoice that his latest years are full
of peace and uuietneSS.

and he was arrested for the larceny of
$3.50 from the bank where the money

More Water in the River.

Supt. Lyons, of the United States
signal service station, reports the rain
of Friday general throughout the state
and very heavy at Alexandria, Fort
Ripley and other points in the Upper
Mississippi valley, where from 81 to 8
inches fell. This will cause marked
rise in the Mississippi, and in his opin-
ion there will soon be sufficient water
for the largest river steamers to reach
st. Paul without difficulty. The out
look is for fair and pleasant weather.

TORE UP HIS VEST
And Made a Rope, with Suicidal
Intent.

Mike Calvin was arrested in West st.
Paul last night and placed in one of the
cells at the Ducas street station. About
$3.50 o'clock Lieut.. Rouleau went in to
look through the station and saw Calvin
hanging from one of the iron bars
which run across the top of the
cells. He got in as quickly as posi-
BILE, and cut the man down just in
time to save his life. Calvin, it seems,
was partially intoxicated when locked
up, but knew enough to tear up his vest
and make a rope out of it. One end of
this he tied around his neck and the
other end to the bar; and jumped
of the mattress. AS soon as he
was resuscitated he was placed
in the cell again. The officials
kept a close watch on him. and pretty
soon found him making arrangements
to take another trip by the rope route.
They concluded it was not safe to leave
him in the cell, and he was conse-
quently taken to the county jail for safe
keeping. Calvin is man about thirty
years of age, and is thought to be tenn
pora rily insane.

CHICAGO, June 22--Miss Susan B. Anthony and
Mrs. Isabella Beecher Hooker upon reading the re-
publican platform as adopted issued an address to
the republican party, asking its immediate and
serious consideration or the following facts: From
as Mrs Otis Warren and Mrs John Adams, Of
Massachusetts,, and Mrs. Corbin OF Virginia, pro-
tested against the exclusion OF women from the

ever presented to Congress when he made
his great battle for the right Of petition.
men. In 1913 Abby Kelly laid the foundation for
the free-soil party from which came this "Fre-
mont and Jessie" with which It gained its first
victory In 1856, for 1t was victory, though Buch-
anan was seated. In 1860 women gave to the
country the lives and fortunes OF fathers, sons and
brothers, and Anna Dickinson turned the doubtful
states toward the Union The work OF woman dur
Ing the war needs no recOunting, but their SELF
aDnegation in working for the enfranchisement Of
the negro while being themselves dlsfranchised is
past history. Three hundred and sixty thousand
women sent Sumner a petill9n for the emancipa-
tlOn OF slaves. 1t was our wOman-sunrage leaders
who did this. In 1866, when women began to peti-
lion Congress for protection in their ''citizenS'
right TO VOTE" the great leaders begged them TO
wait little longer, that the negroes might be
first. In 1868 1t was the same. In 1872 the party
platform said: "rhe republican party is mindful
OF It's obligations TO the loyal women Of America
for their noble devotion to the cause OF freedom;
their admission to wider fields OF usefulness is
OF any class OF citizens for additional rights should
receive respectful consideration" Leading women
advocated the party cause and II was trt-
umphant by the largest majority that they
ever received. In 1876 women were ignored. In
1850 the suffrage women from every state in the
Union held meeting and 1000 postal cards were
received from women not present who wished to
vote. The convention was notified OF this DESIRE
but its platform was silent. In 1884 half million
women OF the w. c. I. U. asked for a temperance
plank, but the committee rejected their petition,
knocking and splitting upon 1T. This soied petition
Is preserved in the Chicago Historical Library.
Now In 1888 we were courteouSly received by
your committees and listened TO Tor thirty
minutes, and again the platform Is
silent. Although the majority Of men who help
us in Congress are republicans, yet forbearance
has ceased TO be virtuOus, we now cease to hope
for justice from the republicans as party, and
look TO the prOhibittOniSts who have always
recognized wOmans equality with man. Yet
mindful OF the past, we ask you to SO cOnStrue
your platform as TO include women in the term
citizens, TO whose personal rights and liberties
you af1irm answering devotion. Win you not
have such a resolution brought before the cOnven-
tiOn and allow US to speak In its behalf?

STRANGE STORIES OF AN OLD COLORED DOCTOR"
strange case OF voOdoOism was reported at At
lanta, Ca, wednesday. In Sandersvtlle about q
month ago the wife OF the Rev. Tom Thomas one
OF the most religious colored men In the commu-
nifty, felt peculiar pain in her limbs which grad
ually enveoped the entire body. Instead OF yield
ing to ordinary physic each dose administered
dawned upon Tom that his wife was bew1tched,
breed Indian, noted for his knowledge OF occult
told Tom that his wife had been poisoned with
rattle-snake poison by neighbor, and that had
three days more delay been made she would have
been dead. He could save her though, and for
the sum OF S1S undertook to antldOte the poi
son. HIS medicines would, he said, at 12 O'Clock
on certain day, make her sick almost unto death,
but after that she would get well. The poison
under his treatment exuded from the pores OF her
skin in threadltke sprays or mucous. Finally the
woman recovered, and is now at work hoeing cot
ton. Sunday last the old vOodoo doctor went to
Toms to hnd out the poiSoner. This he pretended
TO accomplish with talsmanic ball pendant
from string. The netghbOrs assembled, and the
ball was held up In front OF each as his name was
called, until Boston May was reached, when the
ball 1ew toward him, and the man, though deny
Ing 1t, stood accused. Old man Jerry'S WELL on
lot adjoining Toms, began boiling up last Monday,
and whenever bucket OF water Is drawnit begins
TO foam and run over a la sedtZ powder, until
the bucket Is empty. The wOndrouS little ball
also lays this devilment to Boston, and the old
doctor says the cause is a little bottle Of poison
placed In the bottom OF the we'll
