The associated charities In Minneapo
lis are doing a great deal of practical
work among the poor. Their efforts are
being made in careful and systematic
manner, and the results they accomplish
are substantial and lasting.
No one, probably. SO fully knows the
condition of the poverty-stricken people
of the city, or so fully realizes the good
that may be accomplished as George D.
Holt. the secretary Of the association.
Under him the work assumes definite
plan, and advantage is taken of every
law and ordinance, as well IS every
asylnm, provided for the wants of the
less fortunate children of men. But
despite this fact the relief afforded is
not nearly so great as might be if char
itably inclined people would volunteer
their personal assistance in one form or
another. as well as volunteering their
sympathies on hearing of the need. TO
be sure our city has very little pauper-
ism as compared with older localities,
Int a talk with Mr.. Holt reveals exist
ing cases OF wretchedness right here in
Minneapolis that most people in the bet
fer localities of the town never dream of
and that they would consider as impos-
sible of existence here.

city would be supporting both parent

ness, vagrancy or mendicity, or when
found in a state Of want or suffering or

duct of parents or guardian.
This gives much greater degree of
freedom than before to MIR. Holt in his
work. He now has eighteen children
on his list who are in depl0rable con-
dition, but whose parents refuse to re-
lease. Besides the eighteen there are
many other cases to be investigated.

mitted the following report to the
chamber:
We have heard complaints from
number of dealers who claimed that a
decided change occurred at that time.
and that it had the effect of lowering all
classes of wheat one grade. Samples
were shown US to verify these state
ments, and opinions of persons compc-
tent to judge were freely given. On the
other hand, Inspector Clausen claimed
that the grades had not been
changed in any respect since
they were established last fall,
and his deputies sustained him in saw
ing that no instructions, verbal or writ
ten, had been given them to make any
change in grades. Mr.. Clausen, how
ever, stated that all the work of the in
spectors was frequently reviewed by

their work showed it to be nee

But we found many instances which

conclusion that a tightening up

Of grade ON s'line' wheat did
occur at the time mentioned.
On the other hand, we do not think
there was any international change of
grades on the part of the inspection
force. 1t was simply reaction from
period in which the grading was some
what more liberal than it should have
been. The great cause of nearly all the
complaints is lack of uniformity in
grading, some cars being graded too
high and some too low, and any
means that can be devised for cor
recting this irregularity will be well
coined by all, both receivers and con-
sumers. In regard to wheat taken from
elevators in Minneapolis for shipment
or for delivery Cd contracts, we had no
means of comparing samples, as none
had been saved from shipments made
last fall. The inspectors, however.
have samples to guide them in their out
inspection, and we understand that the
elevators are furnished with samples,
also; and it would seem as though
reasonable degree of uniformity might
thus be secured.

Its Abandonment just Yet.
The park commission at It's meeting
yesterday afternoon received a COM
Giunication from Representatives of DR..
Elliott inquiring why certain promises
in regard to Elliott park had not
been kept by the board. It was
claimed that the board had agreed
to put in a fountain and other
improvements which have been neg
leeted thus far. The board also heard
remarks from County Auditor COndit
in substantiation of his claim for 8
cents description On park property
On which taxes must be related and
cancelled. There are about 10000 de-
scriptions, which will cost the board
$3.50 yearly.

Five Solemn Judges SIT In
State on One Important
Case
Presenting a Judicial PIANO.
rama Not Often Viewed
Here.
Advantage Taken Of the Scene
to Photograph the Five
Judges,
And Present Their Portraits
and characteristics to the
Public.

Five judges sat in a row in the big
court room at the district court yester-
day afternoon listening to the argument
in the Injunction suit brought by the
property owners in the vicinity of the
Minnehaha state park against the park
commissioners of the city of Minneapo-
lis. In that line of Blackstonians seated
behind the bar of justice was cOncen-
trated fve-sixth of the judicial wisdom
of the district court of Hennepin county,
and the only reason that the other sixth
was not with them, it was learned on in
quiry, was because Judge Hicks, the
missing member. was once an attorney
in the case or similar one.
At the head of the line Of legal au-
thority sat Judge Young, the senior
member of the bench. next him was
Judge Lochren, the embodiment of real
woolsack dignity. Next in order was
the kindly face of Judge Rea. Judge
before whom every lawyer and client
feels himself to be in favor, because of
his uniform geniality in rulings. If
judge Hicks had been present he would
have been seated most sedately next in
order. As it was. Judge Smith, one of
the Flour City's most venerable attor-
neys and wise judge, though but re-
Gently initiated to the iudgeship, filed
the place. The youngest judge in the
court was a few months ago known
among the lawyers as "Col. Fred
Hooker" but now the title of Judge
Hooker" fits him most admirably. He
balanced the array before whom Hon.
I. Al. Wilson and Thomas Canty were
contending for and against the city.
This occasion gave an excellent OPP
portunity of comparing the indiyiduali-
