You want .s0Od Shoes; good
looking isn't enough. How
many of you can certainly tell
where good-looking and good
march together in Shoe?
Nine times in ten you must
trust the Shoe man.
We've been looking sharp
to our finest Shoes, Ladies'
Shoes. Some makers rank
high for this, some for that.
Good Shoes, excellent Shoes,
but - There's the pinch.
The gerry particular lady now
and then isn't quite satisfied.
Hard to say why. She can't
say why, may be. Some Shoe
graces are intangible, you
know.
We've had just those ladies
in mind. Do you know who
in all the land makes the best
Shoes for women? Never
mind; no names. ButMc Slices
are here. You can't get finer
or better for the money; very
likely neither so fine nor so
good.
If you want to see styles and
know the prices you will find

SOCIAL NOTES.

At their weekly meeting last Friday
evening the Tam O'Shanter club dis
cussed the woman suffrage question.
The meeting was we'll attended, some
of our most prominent citizens being
present to listen to the learned discus
sion. Among those taking an active
part in the discussion were the follow
ing well-known gentlemen: O.. l..
Tufts. P. Ii. Mullin, Prof. Campbell
and Deacon Graham. These gentle
men have given this subject long and
serious consideration. and their views
necessarily weighed very strongly with
the members when the question was put
to the vote. The vote stood AZ against
and 80 for woman suffrage. Next Fri
day evening the club gives social and
dance at their rooms in the Albion
hotel.
Mr.. and Mrs. E. r. Bristol's home was
taken possession of Wednesday evening
by eighty of their friends. Although
most complete surprise, the host and
hostess were equal to the occasion and
heartily welcomed all who had come to
help them celebrate their twenty-fourth
wedding anniversary. Dancing and
music were the features of the evening.
Mrs. Bristol, Miss f. Bailey and Mr..
Kelly rendered some fine vocal pieces.
Matt Walsh, ESQ.,, delighted all with his
artistic steps. An elegant supper was
served, after which all departed for
their homes declaring it the most en-
jOyable event of the season.

MINNEAPOLIS,
TO AVERT DANGER.

1t is only through good fortune that
Minneapolis has not had holocaust
before this, as the construction of many
of its public buildings with disregard
10 even ordinary precautions were such
as to make loss of human life certain in
case of a fire. or panic. Particularly
true is this in regard to some
of the places of public amusement.
Last year the ordinance requiring GER
tain safeguards, and the provision Of
means of escape was overhauled, but
was made applicable only to buildings
to be thereafter erected. AS the pres
ent council is now looking to the needs
of legislation and the remOdeling of
ordinances to make them effective,
some little attention should be
paid to this important matter-without
going into detail, pen Illustration Will
show the necessity of this action. The
Hennepin Avenue theater holds 1850
people or over. and twO-thirdS OF its
seating capacity is in the balcony and
gallery. In case of a fire or panic at
the theater, the loss Of life will be
simply appalling. Exits at the sides Of
the building are provided for those, who
happen to be seated on the first
floor, but these would doubtless
be able to reach the street anyway
through the main entrance. The stair
ways from the balcony, and particu-
larry from the gallery leading to the en-
trance, are narrow, steep and winding.
They would be blockaded in few
minutes, and rescue would be an impos-
siblity. Yet the ordinance which
would govern the construction of new
theater, provides that there shall
be on either side of the
building an open space equal to
one-siXth the width of the building eX-
TENDING the full length of the auditor
ium, and a balcony not less than four
feet wide with the stair-caSeS running
to the ground level from both galleries
so as to make the escape Of people
seated above the first floor possible. i'll
case they should be cut off from reach
ing the gallery. The question arises,
why should not this ordinance be so
amended as to make it operate now? A
theater packed full of humanity
as there has been during the past week
is simply a menace to life and limb.
This criticism does not apply to the
theater mentioned alone. The Pence
opera house, the dime museum, the
theatre cOmiQue and other halls in
which large crowds assemble, present
the same dangerous features. The
burning of the st. Paul Grand opera
house should carry with it the sugges-
ton Of some immediate action.

THE EXPOSITION.
General Manager Byron's Eastern
Trip Brings Good Results.

General Manager W. 6. Byron, of the
board of directors of the exposition, re-
turned yesterday from aspeek's search
in New York for novelties for the COM
ing exposition. He says he wishes he
might have staid there for a month, but
as it was he had succeeded in gaining
good many splendid attractions. His
special object in New York was in
working up the art collection. He has
gained the cooperation of the principal
artists of New York city and the East
as we'll as the American artists in the
old world. and says they will have the
finest art collection next fall that was
ever displayed in the Northwest. AL
though he has made no definite arrange
ments with any musical people, he has
been in correspondence with Llberatl,
who was here two years ago. and with
Cappa, of the Seventh Regiment band
of New York, which was here last year.
Also with the band of the Thirteenth
regiment of New York, and with other
bands in different parts of the country.
The entire Thirteenth regiment propose
making a Western trip about the time
of the exposition. and Mr.. Byron hopes
to have them in Minneapolis during part
of the exposition. 1t is surety that
Rev. T. De Witt Talmage will be here to
take part in the opening exercises of the
exposition. Mr.. Byron succeeded also
in obtaining a good number of new eX
hibits from Eastern manufacturing
firms. he says that every one in the
East are ready to place their exhibits in
the Minneapolis exposition, as they
realize it is in advance of all others in
the United States and that its success
during the past three years has given it
famous reputation.

IT LOOKS IRREGULAR.
John Byrnes Raises an
Interesting Point in Divorce

Interesting Point in Divorce
Law.
A most interesting point for judges
and lawyers to study was brought up by
Attorney John Byrnes. in Judge Rea's
court room yesterday morning, when
the divorce suit of Charles 'Finks VS..
Alice NJ. Finks came on for trial. The
charge in the complaint was desertion,
and Mr.. Finks proved that Mrs. Finks
had deserted him some time ago and
gone to New York to live. Mr.. Byrnes
stated that he had served notice of
the trial and summons on the defend
ant by publication in newspaper. and
by sending copy of the complaint to
her address in New York.
The law governing such cases read
that scopes of the summons and COM
plant shall be served on the defendant
personally; and Wien such service is
made out of this state, it may be proved
by the affidavit of the person making
the same, X"
This law, Mr.. Byrnes held, was void,
and of no earthly account. as this court
has no jurisdiction over citizens of other
states, and acquired no Jurisdiction over
a citizen of another state by serving
upon him personally a summons. He
further held that the publication of a
summons and complaint. and the send
ing OF ore by mail to the defendant,
fully complied with all the require
ments of the law. 1t was question in
his mind, he said, as to whether di-
vorce secured here after simply serving
a notice Oh the defendant in another
state by personal means would be legal
OF not. Judge Rea was not fully pre-
pared to render decision, and so took
the case under advisement.

BECOMING TIRESOME.
The Old Thornton Property Is
Again Brought Into Court.

Three new suits, the outgrowth of
the famous Clague-Washbern suit, de-
cided in favor of the defendant few
days ago, were begun in the district
court yesterday. They are the separate
suits of Elizabeth It. Clague, Arthur
Ii. Hanson and Hannah F. Mexican,
against Jonathan II. Pond, to gain pos
session of an individual one-fifth each
of lots and in block 5. and lots l. 2,
and 10. in block &. of Sutton & Pratt's
addition to Minneapolis. This land
constitutes part of the original forty
acre tract owned by Mrs. Frances Nor
ton, and lies near that owned by W. ID.
Washburn, which Mrs. Clague sued to
gain possession of. In the complaints
the plaintiffs allege that they are the
heirs at law of Mrs. Frances Thornton,
the wife of Arthur Hill Thornton. and
that the property is now wrongfully
withheld from them. They were in
possession of the property, they claim.
until April last, when they were ousted
by the defendant. The point made by
the plaintiffs in bringing these suits is
that at the time of making the deed con-
veying the property to some one else,
Mrs. Thornton was not joined in signing
it by her husband, as required by law,
and that the deed of conveyance, there
fore is mil and void.

ST. ANDREW BROTHERHOOD.
1t Is to Have a Red-Letter Day
Next Sunday Evening.

The Brotherhood of st. Andrew, which
has become a by-word in the Protestant
Episcopal church for manly Christian
usefulness, is to experience red-letter
day in its history in this diocese next
Sunday evening. James L. Houghtel-
ing, of st. James parish, Chicago-a mag
nificent type of Christian business
man-is to arrive in this city next Sun

Hogg, of Chicago. and Charles j. Sills,
of st. Georges parish, New York city,

our church on this continet in its work
for and among young men. Who has
not heard of the grand work done by
DR.. Rainsford, in st. Georges? Well,
Mr.. Sills is his right-hand layman.
These three Christian gentlemen are
coming to lay before the people
of these two cities the great and
commanding claims of the church upon
Young men, and what the church should
and is doing for young men. Mr..
HOughteling is the founder of the
Brotherhood of st. Andrew, which has
grown from few struggling chapters
in Chicago three years ago to number
$50 chapters with live membership of
at least 5000 young men. who are doing
valiant work for the cause of simple,
strong and,manly Christianity. MeSsrs.

fore Judge Emery in the municipal
court yesterday to testify in the case of
Charles D. Mayer against Casper Can

was to prove whether or no
Mayer did anything toward obtaining

due to the efforts of Mike Hoy, Supt.
Helm and others who interested them

testified that the complainant had done
