CHANGING THE RECORDS.
A Mistake That Was Probably
Made on PURPOSE,

A somewhat startling discovery was
made by Deputy Clerk George Tirrell in
looking over some of the records in the
clerks Office yesterday. A real estate
man had sent down for search for
judgments against certain man, and
looking for these Judgment the clerk
came across something which caused
him to begin to ponder little. He found
several judgments against the person
named, running from Sept. "a to Sept.
80, and even later; but the peculiar
thing about it was that Immediately
after Sept. "a and Sept. 26 was Sept. %.
On looking at the page closely he found
that the figure $50 had been changed to
an 49," thus extending the time for
creditors to attach for three days. The
clerk began to investigate the matter
and found that the transcript in the
judgment was filed and dOcketed Sept.
25, and that the register entry was,
made on the same day. On looking at
the other books he found that the ''5'
had been changed to an ''S' in the reg
lister of actions, on the transcript itself,
and on the docket. 1t was evident that
some one interested has changed the
figures for the purpose of lodging some
real estate deal. or else swlndling some
one OH trade. No one in the clerks
Office knew anything in regard to when
the change was made. The matter will
be investigated

A w. g.. Il. U. HOTEL.
A Scheme to Further the Work Of
This Organization.


Owing to the great increase in their
custom the w. G. T. U. are meditatlng
on a change of location to more commo-
dious quarters. They are now nego-
tiating for the purchase of the Semple
block on Fourth street between Henne-
pin and Nicollet. The plan is to very
much enlarge the scale of their busi-
ness if they gain SO large building,
and furnish rooms for those of their
customers who SO desire. In addition
to the coffee room on the first floor. they
propose opening first-cfass employ
ment office where ladies and others can
be furnished with reliable help. In
this way they will enlarge the scope of
their work. Their business at present
is in most fiOurishing condition. Dur
ing January 10,455 meals were fur
nished, and because of their crowded
condition of the business was very much
crippled. In the new building the ladies
hope to have a large hall where their
meetings can be held. If these schemes
are materialiZed meals will probably be
served on Sunday as well as week days.
Though it is not certainty that the
ladies will occupy this building, they
will move to better quarters in the
spring, and propose doing proportion
ately larger amount of work for suffer-
ing humanity. In case they obtain the
Semple block it will be remodeled to
meet their wants. An ample kitchen
and dining room will be provided for on
the first floor. The upper floors will be
adapted largely for apartment rooms,
and a large hall and intelligence Office
will also be provided for in the building.

DON'T LIKE 1T.
District Court Judges Disapprove
of HAYS Bill.

Representative Eugene Hay has in
troduced bill in the legislature to cut
the grand jury from tweDty members to
seven, and the following interviews
with district court judges and the
county attorneys, who are best qualified
from experience to judge of the results
of the proposed innovation, are of in
terest. 1t will he noticed they are al
most unanimously against change:
Ex-COunty Attorney Davis-So long
as the grand jury system is retained l
do not think it would be good plan to
reduce the numbers of jurors to seven.
Twenty three is none too many.
Judge Lochren-The plan to reduce
to seven is not good one. The jury is
none to large now, nor is too very eX-
pensive. This continual tinkering is
bad in every sense. and as the present
system has been found successful for
several centuries, see no reason why
it should be changed. Better Justice
can be done with twenty-three members
than with seven. and it seems to me
that it is the smallest kind of business
to 20 to work and tinker with the grand
jury system.
County Attorney Jamison-The plan
is good one and should receive the
support of every one. There is no need
for so many jurors, and they are simply
a needless expense.
Judge Hicks-The system which has
been followed successfully for centuries
it is unsafe to change for the gravest
reasons. For tnat reason [ am opposed
to any change.
Judge Real am opposed to any and
all tinkering with our jury laws.

den. and wished to redeem the land, as
he had contract to sell it to Shaw. 1t
is claimed that there was agreement of
sale. and Clark had no right to act for
McFadden. Shaw, after obtaining pos
session of the land mortgaged it to

RUNNING BEHIND.
The Flour Output Decreases from
Various Causes.

The Northwestern Miller, in its issue
Of to-day, will say: Last week opera
tions Oh the platform were largely a
repitition of several weeks past. Low
water and ice figured prominently, and
were the cause of small falling off in
the aggregate flour production. The
eleven mills which ran greater or less
part of the time made total of 1880
barrels-averaging 1890 barrels daily
against S4,100 barrels the previous week
and 114,O00 barrels for the correspond
ing time in 1888. One firm again made
over one-half the whole output. There
were eleven mills running this after
noon, but two of these representing
daily product of $500 barrels, were
started since morning. They were pro-
ducing at the rate of nearly 1900 barrels
per tWenty-four hours, but when numer-
Gus stops and the late starting of some
of them are allowed for, the grind for
the week will doubtless go under these
figures. One more mill has been COM
PEELED to fall back on steam power, and
there are seven thus driven in whole or
part. The local stock of flour is being
added to slightly, and now amounts to
about 10000 els-cOnsiderably less
than weeks run of the mills in good

ROASTING THE BOARD.

Frank F. Davis-To my way of think
ing law should be passed prohibiting
the board of trade from holding meet
jngs, and have this law enforced just as
much as the one prohibiting slugging
matches.
c. B. Tirrell-I have nothing to say
in regard to the board. / am following
the course | marked out for myself
some time ago, and if the honorable
board will let me alone L will never
bother it.
Sheriff Ege-The board of trade as
body is all right. The trouble is that
there are a few men on it who are prac-
tically dead and gone. They have not
been buried yet, SO nothing can be
done to make the board any better. For
ten years past every means known has
been triCd to get them off of the board,
but they won't go.
Charles Ebert--It would be good
plan to send the members OF the board
of tlade to the Sandwich islands. They
go from one extreme to the other with
rapidity which would puzzle lightning
change artist. They hurt the city in
every way.
w. 2. Robertson the whole, am
not in love with the board OF trade.
Some of the members appear to think
that Minneapolis is but village of l,5Oo
inhabitants.
A. B. Bunting-A board of trade,
when composed of the proper persons,
is good thing for city, but it does not
seem to me that the Hennepin county
delegation should pay any attention to
what the Minneapolis board of trade
says.
Freeman P. Eane-The board of trade
is an ancient piece of brIc-a-brac which
should be done away with. The mem
bers talk the worst sort of nonsense,
and seem 10 have no advanced ideas.
John w. Arctander-I do not like to
say just what | think about the board
of trade, but am free to admit that the
members of it act as though they knew
10 more than school children in every
thing they DO. Some of the members
may have brains, but many of them act
as if they had none. Their recent
actions demonstrate this.
john Nj. MilIer-The board of trade is
getting at about the right thing i'll the
matter of certain legislation. There
are, perhaps, some old fogies on the
board, but they are needed, as any body
OF men always needs some men with
Ideas way behind the times.

A Big Mining Suit.

Capt. S. p. Snider and j. W. Pence,
of Minneapolis, some years ago leased
tract of iron land in the Gogebic region
of the Ryan Iron Mining Company of
Milwaukee. The lease was for five
years, Pence & Snider to mine $4,000
tons of ore year and to pay for it
royalty of 80 cents per ton. The ore
was exhausted at the end of two years,
and Messrs. Pence u Snider claim that
the exhaustion of the ore renders the
contract void for the remaining three
years, and the Milwaukee company
hold an opposite opinion. The amount
under controversy is s22500, and the
courts will likely be called on to settle
the matter.

case of suspended animation" here is
attracting the attention of physicians
all over the state. The subject is Miss
Belle Macarthur, aged eighteen years.
The attacks come upon her periodically
without warning, lasting from five to
eight days, causing her to lose control
of all physical power and to appear like
one who is dead. She is now in one of
these frances. A singular feature of
the case is her. senses of feeling and
hearing are rendered painfully acute,
causing her to suffer what she describes
as the most terrible agony of knowing
all that is going on about her without
the ability to express herself. Miss
McArthur's general health is good, and
when in normal condition she is bright,
witty and vivacious.
