Three Bows Drowned.

The warm weather is apt to start the small
boys toward the rivers, creeks and brooks
where they can ego in swimming" In order
to evade the police they usually seek some Sc
cluded spot where they cannot be discovered
easily. The result is that when one of them
goes out beyond his depth there is no one near
who can be called to the rescue. Thus far this
season there have been about six such cases of
drowning in and about this city. There were
two victims yesterday, In the morning there
was party of colored boys fishing at the south
end of the Long bridge. Fishing in the hot
sun was not refreshing and some of them de-
termined to go in swimming and get cool

Yesterday was an unusually bright
day at the Exposition, especially con-
sidering the fact that it was Monday
a day when but few visitors are eX-
pected. Despite the fact that Sunday
was spent in toll by the tardy exhibit
ors and the management, Providence
smiled on the great show yesterday, and
there was an excellent attendance dur
ing the afternoon and evening. The
Sunday of work, too, had put the
whole building in much better shape.
The exhibits in the building were
all in presentable condition, ready to be
admired. and throughout the exposition
had an orderly appearance, as though
it had settled down TO have its picture
taken. New attractions are constantly
being added, and there is greater
promise than ever before that the ex-
position of 1889 will surpass any OF the
previous eXpOSitiOnS.
The last space was let this morning
to the Northwestern Religious Press
association. Their display, which is
gotten up by the local religious papers,
is unique and artistic. Relics OF foreign
lands, gathered from time to time by
missionaries, are displayed, and copies
of the papers represented are given
away.
Prof. Clausen's panoramaiof views of
Western scenes has been placed on eX-
hibition. and is as popular as ever with
sight .seers.
Chief Arthur, of the order of Loco
tive Engineers, with his wife. was
among the guests at the exhibition yes
terday morning, and reported them
selves much pleased with ali they saw.
The art gallery is still the favorite
portion of the whole show. and has
many visitors. The study of Sculptor
Fjelde was yesterday the center of at
traction during the hours when the art
ist was at work. His sister is posing
for him each day during the hour from
IL to II in the morning, from $50 to
4 80 in the afternoon. and from to in
the evening. During these hours
the little study adjacent to
the art gallery has many
visitors. In fact yesterday morning 1t
was the point of particul interest OF
all the Exposition. Mr.. FJelde has also
begun upon a bust of Mr.. Smith, the art
director.
Last night was one of the best at
tended and most successful evenings OF
the Exposition. The thousand little
school children under the direction of
Prof. Stiles Raymond, OF the public
schools, sang well. and made pretty
picture as well as they occupied the
band stand. The building was brill
iantly lighted throughout, and every
thing was in perfect condition. The
visitors seemed not only pleased, but
surprised, with the attractions that
were presented. Explanations were
heard on every SIDE of surprise at the
wonderful improvements over last week.
The art gallery was crowded through
out the evening with admirers. A por-
ton of the lights leading over the
bridge and to the building were illu-
minated last night All of them will be
lighted tonight, and will make beau
tlful display.

THAT REAL ESTATE DEAL.
A Couple of Real Estate Agents
Who We're Near the Throne.

The interesting controversy that is
going on between Police Commissioner
Giertsen on the one hand, and Commits
sioner Guile and Supt. Bracket or the
other. which involves the mighty prob
lem, "Who got the s75?'', is creating a
good deal of amusement. 1t seems
when the bids for the construction of
the North Minneapolis police station
were opened June 10, the bidders
were Eli Giertsen. brother of the
doughty police commissioner of that
name, and c. L. Cove, who is member
of the real estate firm of w. NJ. Bracket
Il Co., if the firm has not gone out of
existence since its head was appointed
police superintendent. 1t is now said
that the lot purchased for $500 was of
fered first for 81, 425 by its owner, but
Cove, acting as an agent for the police
commission, with rare sagacity. man.
aged to buy it for 50, $780, The SIS was
prabably charged up as commission"
At any rate, the police commissioners
brother Eli did not get there, but the
partner of the superintendent of police
did, and with both feet. And still the
march of reform goes proudly onward
and upward.
