Drawing Customers.

The main object with every merchant
Is, of course, to have satisfactory num-
Der of profitable sales; otherwise, what
ever be the merits of his management,
the business is failure. There are
fewer and fewer cases in which a mer-
chant has the monopoly of the trade
from the remoteness of other stores.
Wherever a good living is to be made,
some new aspirant starts up to divide it
with the first occupant, and in most
places competition is so rife that pro
rata division would be insufficient for a
subsistence. In almost every case,
therefore, the competitive struggle is
for the survival of the fittest, and I'M
less a tradesman understands and prac-
tees some of the Legitimate arts which
attract customers, he is at great dis
advantage compared with those who
possess and employ these means.
Having failed to reach the home plate
on this score, offer Is lbs. fine granu-
lated sugar for SD one dollar. All my
other stock of tea, coffee, molasSes,

SOME STAGE STORIES.

Herbert Saekett. the g0od-lOOking
stage manager for DOnnelly and Girard.
has a good deal to say with reference
to the mirth-proYOking qualities Of
Natural Gas" Everybody knows
that the business introduced in the
great Summer Season" song is very
funny, and very often people in he
audience laugh so much over 1t that
they become hysterical. Zone night III
Oshkosh" saws Sackett. 1--WE had one
of those hearty. lOud-mouthed laughers
in the audience. Every time one OF the
comedians opened his mouth this follow
came near falling of his seat. When
the Summer Season song was reached.
the local manager. who had seen the
piece before, appeared behind the
scenes and requested DDnnelly and
Girard TO omit the circus business
GiTard protested, claiming that the ear
Gus act was the funniest thing the whole
show. But the local manager wouldn't
have it. He said that if the circus act
went the man with the loud laugh
would have to be C FRIED, ont of the
audience on StTetcheT. So 10 save the
expense of a funeral. the circus act
was omitted at Oshkosh"

ST. Paul theatpr-goers will probably
remember A. g. Chapman. who so eX-
celiently played the captain in 'HarIOr
Lights when presented In St. Paul last
season. Chapman is a good actor, hut
ne is a tfreless worker in the great
cause of putting down strong drink.
There was a time when he was one of
the most S0ught-after actors in the pro-
fession, but his efforts in the liquor
cause have brought him gradually down
the ladder, aDtil this year he finds him
self engaged with company which
plays sHeh cities as PunXntawney, Penn.
Chapman used to have a Line" in Liar
Dor Lights" like this:
Mates, we'll go below, open bottle
Of the rareSt old wine, and drink 20 the
health of our gallant lieutenant"
One night in Philadelphia the actor
was carrying an unusually heavy lag, "
and when the "eue' for the above
speech came he transposed it as follows:
''Gents, We'll go mp in the garrett and
tap bottle (hic) of settler water for the
benefit of (hie) the lieutenant"
The audience thought Chipman's pro
pOSal of settler water little funny. but
Frank CuFtiSs, the manager of the coni-
pany, looked at it in different light.

of his heroic lines was:

Was the Programme at the Peo-
pies Chnrch Concert Last
Evening.
Too long and too classical was the
programme of the concert at the Peo-
pies church last night. Apart from
these two considerations it was first
class, and nothing but praise can be
given the performers. Mrs. Hermann
Scheffer added golden laurels to those

disappointment was expressed at her
failure to sing the second solo on the
programme owing to a sudden attack of
illness. Herr Jacob Reuters plav-

itself. The last song, LET the Hills

first appearance in public, and he ac-

AFFAIRS OF THE COUNTY.
Collection of Delinquent Taxes
Official Reports Considered.

The proposition of E. E. Mcdonald,
the lawyer, to collect delinquent per-
sOnal taxes for 20 per cent commission
was considered at the regular meeting
of the board of county commissioners.
County Attorney. Egan and Mayor
Smith spoke in opposition of the pro-
posal. They thought it would be a
hardship on the poor people to force
the collection of taxes. The matter was
referred to the committee on taxes. L.
p. Wright, of the board of control, was
allowed Sl43.17, the. county's share of
the expenses incurred by that gentle
man in attending the national cOrrec-
tions and charities convention at San
francisco. The following reports of

Blocks of Fives' is beginning to take
a firm. hard grip on st. Paul, and sleep
less nights and days Of SORROW Will soon
follow. oh, everybody can get Blaine
ont and Harrison in-until they try it,
and then comes the difficulty. The lit
tie puzzle is taking death grip on the
fancy of the public, and everybody is
working tor the GEoBE's $25 prize for
the quickest solution. Answers are be-
ginning to come in; and, considering
the fact that the puzzle has been on the
market but a day, the number IS aston
iShing.
The first reply was evidently from

1t is reported w. J. Freaney said he
helped work Blaine out in Chicago IN
1855, and thought he could more easily
work han out by means of the ''bloeks

William Henry Eustis. of Minneapo--
lis, says it's 10 use trying, you can't
work Blaine out; if you get him out he
comes right back again.
Donnelly and Girard kept the au-
dienee waiting FIVE minutes last night,
while they decided which could get
Harrison in in the shortest time.

official time, but friend of his says:

MADE A BIG BIT.
Denman Thompson's Great Play
Given at the Harris.

Denman ThompsOn's Great Play
Given at the Harris.
If Denman Thompson himself had
played the part OF Joshua Whitcomb in
"The Old Homestead" which was pre-
scented at the Harris theater last even
ing, the performance and spirit of the
play could not have been excelled. The
house was full, intelligent and appre-
ciative.and swayed in continued Juror
and pathos from the rise to the drop or
the curtain. "The Old Homestead" in
its characters and tale, Is one OF the
most realistic pOrtrayals OF. New Eng
land rustic life and manners. Archie
Boyd, as old Joshua WhitcOmb, was
strong and effective. His voice has that
peculiar charm which, coupled with
his easy presentation of the homely
ways and sentiments of New
England farmer, win him the
voiced enthusiasm of the house.
James +. Dean as Cy Prince,
A. NJ. Holbrook as Frank Hopkins. j.
III. RYAN as Francois FOgerty and Mrs.
Mcguire, are very good and constitute
strong part of the support, which In all
act smoothly in the features OF an In
tenSely interesting plot. The play mas
moral well worth Tue Sluuy. Inc
spectator would vent with tears one
moment, and, struggling under the
drags of recovery, would the next fall
heart and soul into upr0arious la lighter
at the inimitable surprises and humor
which spice the scenes from first to
last. The songs, in themselves, evoked
repeated applause, and 1.-The Old Home
stead. with Archie Boyd in the title role
and such company, is the best dra-
matte study which the wise selection OF
Manager Harris has extended to the
entertainment of the patrons OF his
theater.

CITY COMMENT.

Since the announcement by the GLOBE
Of the exact location of the new opera
house, there has been some little obiec-
tions from the "Hill people," They
would like theater right on the line of
the cable, so they could step from the
grip right into the foyer. On the other
hand. The jewellers on the bluff are de-
lighted, as the Seventh street cable will
carry them directly TO the door. But
both localities nayrejoice. 1t is under
stood that a new cable will be run up
Cedar street. connecting the Fourth
and Seventh street cables. and thus
meeting the views Of all sections.

1t seems the general opinion that to-
nights meeting Of the council will de
eide the mOmentous question whether
we are to have an ice palace or not
From the council must come the funds
necessary, but whether ali of the
amount should come from the council
IS a mOOted question. II has been stated
that $4,000 would be required for the
perfection Of the winter carnival. and it
Is the opinion of some of the commit
tee, at least, that unless the council will
give that sum it cannot be raised.
Others want a S10,009 appropriation,
trusting to raise the balance by sub
scriptiOn. If council apprOpriates any
reasonable sum. the work of prepare
fiOn will at once begin. The committee
will meet at the Merchants Thursday

The one subject before the chamber Of

was that of Dakota relief. Mr.. Marvin

exposing the money sharks of the new

which the settlers were subjected at
their hands. A proposal was advanced
that local company be formed to take
up the chattel mortgages and loan the
settlers what money they headed at 10
or IL per cent. At present they were
paying all the way from GO to 100 per
cent. The report was referred to the

carloads of coal and two of provisions
had been forwarded to Nelson and Ram
sey counties, North Dakota, and two
