BUSINESS WAS GOOD.
The Municipal Court Now a
Money Making Institution.

Under Judge Emery's supervision the
municipal court has become profitable
investment for the city of Minneapolis.
The system of fines inaugurated by the
present judiciary has. bore fruit and
quite snug sum will have been turned
into the city treasury before the fiscal
year shall have closed. Not only will
the fines collected pay all the expenses
of the court, including the salaries of
the judges, but after the entire cost OF
maintaining the workhouse has been
paid there will be balance which can be
used for city improvements. Last year
the civil and criminal business trans
acted by the court amounted to 200.
For ten months OF this year the Grim
inal business alone has netted S29.976,
while the civil business amounted to
nearly $1,000. The timing of the First
street madamS every month has had
considerable to do with the increase of
the cash received. and now that the
system of illegally licensing vice has OBJ
tanned a foothold, it is looked upon as
regular source of income. Following
are the amounts received for each
month from the criminal court: jan
uary, 81, 465: February, S1,793; March,
s1,575; April. s.. O03; May. S2,904; June,
S3,144; July, S4,O54; August. S3,S13;
September, ST, 165; October, over $1,000.

The Real Short Line.

There is a great deal of talk Just now
In the papers about Short Lines" to
this. that and the other point. From
some of the claims put forth. the public
would get an idea that the railroad hay
ing the least mileage between two given
points is the "Sh0Tt Line' beyond a
question. But is it? Is no account to
be made Of time. comfort, or accOmmO-
datiOnS? Is not the true "ShOrt Line"
the one which makes the best time. has
the smOOthest roadbed, and furnishes
the best accommodations? If these
considerations have any weight. it will
be found that The Burlington" is the
real Short Line from the Twin Cities 10
Chicago.
The mileage IS little more than that
of one or two of the older lines. but It
makes the best running time, is the
only light-grade thOrOughfare, and has
an equipment uneQualed for elegance
and c0nfOrt.
The first train over the line. Oct. q
1886, made the run from st. Paul to
Chicago in eleven hours and ten min
utes; st. Paul TO La Crosse. Nov. 5, 1872
miles. in I25 minutes-fime that has
never been equaled or approached.
The idea that The Burlington" is
longer line than others is totally errone-
Gus. Travellers viii find it the Real
Short Line.
