being a composition by Prot. I. P.

a SUNDAY IN ST. PAUL.

The city was almost denuded Of peo-
pie yesterday. By rail, by water and
by road they poured into the country
by thousands, tens of thousand and
hundreds of thousands. Red Rock
swarmed with them, White Bear and
Minnebaha were black, and Mime
tonka'S fair bosom, was covered with
the light-hearted friIolity of the Saint
ly City. 1t was regular holiday day,
with true holiday weather-the incipient
heat of the sun being tempered with the
usual soui-flling, invigorating breeze.
There were few people attending
morning service, but the churches were
either too hot or the sermons too dry,
one or the other, or both, that when the
bells ceased for evening service to be-
gin the churches were practically de-
serted. 1t was also found that the New
market, Franklin Square and the un-
pretentious Dime were filled to over
flowing, and no complaints were heard
about it being too hot. 1t is true That
yesterday was Sunday; the people en-
joyed it as Sucl-a day of recreation
and rest.
Perhaps one of the finest sights in
the city on Sunday is that to be seen
along Summit avenue. Here there is
congregated at one time during the day
the major portion of the horse flesh of
the city, from the blooded trotter and
PAGER to the less pretentiOus and I'M
couth looking draught and mule. There
is nothing to equal the sight, hundreds
of pedestrians being attracted to the
avenue to witness the careering horses
and gay equipages as they fill by.
~
The parks are also well attended,
largely by married couples with their
small army of children. A little music
would be a great attraction in these
parks Sunday afternoon, and to palliate
the choIer of the rigid Sabbatarian, the
musicians could be confined to playing
nothing but sacred music. so long as
the melody was outside the pale of San
key and Moody. 1t is only fair that
these men and women, with large fam
lilies, who are toiling week in and week
out, and who are unable to get
into the country, should have
their wants attended to. In
all civilized communities the
Sunday afternoon sacred concert in the
is ever busy day for the street ears,
particularly the cable cars. The num-
Der of people carried over the Seventh
street cable yesterday is unprecedented
in the history of the street railway
company. The large force of the COM
pany had great difficulty in meeting the
demand. car after car carrying beyond
Its full complement OF passengers.

PARK ON DAYToN's BLUFF
Is What the People Want, Though
C1iuues Nav Kick

The citizens of Dayton's bluff are no
torious kickers.. Their action upon the
location of park is one case out of
many which could be instanced. Four
years have elapsed since the project
was first mooted for park on the bluff,
and yet to-day the inhabitants of that
portion of the city ARE still wrangling
about location. Will this internecine
war ever cease? 1t is doubtful, I'M
less the park - commissioners ex-
hibit more backbone than they have
hitherto done. Several sites have been
virtually decided upon by the commits
sion. only to be eventually dropped in
obedience to the clamor of section of
the people. 1t is manifest that in locat-
ing park the commissioners cannot ex-
pect to please everybody; but they APP
pear to have ignored this fact and have
allowed themselves to be swayed to and
fro as a rudderless boat in the storm
tossed ocean. The commission would
do we'll to exercise more of their own
Judgment and cease to bow to the will
of any CLIQUE or purse-prOud syndicate.
What the rank and file of the people
want is a park-a suitable breathing
place, where also the children can roam
at will. The commissioners should look
over the district, select a proper site
and see that in its purchase the public
purse is not plundered for the advantage
of mere real estate sharks.

Cullen and Leithauser. There was no
such construction Of. the case on the
part of the incumbent alderman. how
ever, and when the committee met last
Monday, tue body remained intact and
10 one made any effort to disrupt it.
Aid. Sanborn claimed that President
Hamm's appointment of new commit
tee had no effect whatever on the old
one, according to the Legislative act
which delegates to the city council the
power to appoint committee of custody
consisting of three aldermen, for the
care of the city's interest in the court
house property. The county appointed
three commissioners from the board of
county commissioners. The sextette
WllCu 10 ltOW III OHOl VI
the court house, is composed
Of Aid. Sanborll, Cullen and Leithauser
and Commissioners Mitsch, Boland and
Boyd, with Mayor Smith us chairman.
Of the seven there are four Republic
ans and three Democrats. If President
! Hamm's newly appointed brace of ward
gods would step into Office, the policy
would be made decidedly Democratic.
This is not to be, however, and the Re-
publicans will sit pat OH their launches
until their year is up. This will be in
April next, and then the Democrats
will get fair shake of the controlling
commission. The Republicans claim
the right to membership of the COM
mittee for one year under the legislative
act, and 1t is conceded by the corporation
attorney and his colleagues that they
are all right and that the new ap-
pointees, AID. Conley. Cullen and Pratt
will wait till the year rolls by. This
joint commission has quite lever in
hand for future election rabbleS. 1t has
the hiring of all the help in the building
and full control of all purchases and
alterations to fixtures and furniture.
In fact it has exclusive charge of the
property and can care for it as it sees fit.
At the present rate of monthly expense
of the new building it will cost the
county and city $4,000 ayear to main
tain it. There are sixteen janitors.
three women, five men in the engine
room and landscape gardeners
and elevator men. Some Of the
ianitors have enough to do
!. to keep them busy atleasthalf the time.
The other half IS spent in thinking
where to find something to do. The
custodian and his Turkish assistant
have both grown very corpulent on their
'jobs. and only sweat when they think
of their poor chances OF staying under
new and more economical adminiStra-
: ton. in which the mossback commits
sioner from northern township would
MOT have as much influence.

THE city council is very liberal in the
expenditure of money for public i'm
,provements, the paving of streets and
the building of bridges. but not a cent
will they expend for all adequate sup
ply of books for the public library. For
ascity of Its size and Importance, the
public library of St. Paul is a dis
grace. 1t is utterly impossi-
bic to secure the loan of
any popular volume inside twelve
month. If the borrower has set his
heart upon any one book, that is if it
has been published any date after the
Flood. and is the production of pOpu-
lar author, the only sure means of Sc
curing it before the millennium is to take
up permanet quarters in the library
rooms. The expenditure of s10,00O-of
course $4,000 would be better-wOuld
materially alter the present unsatis-
factory state of things, and the city
placed in possession of library, the
mention of which would not call up the
blush of shame. AT present st. Paul is
away back in the matter of public
library.

A BUILDERS EXCHANGE.
Quite a Commemorate Step Con-

The builders and contractors of the
city are contemplating the establishment
OF an exchange. A business exehan- e
would supply long-felt want in the
city, and that promulgated by the build
ers and contractors is assured of success.
Suitable rooms will be taken at ceI-
trail point in the city, properly fitted
with every convenience and requirement
of the business man. The members of
the exchange will select certain hour
of the day. say from II to IL, or l to 2.
and here they are certain to be found
every working day of the week. All
persons with whom they transact bust
ness will have free access to the .ex-

carrying out of improvements. A great
saving of time would be effected, which,
these days of saloons and hot lunch,
means a saving of money to the bust
ness man.

The first colonel of the First Maine cavalry was bluff John Goddard, an iron sided old lumberman. Before the war he used to take gangs of men into the woods every winter.
 Late one fall in the ''fifties" a tall, lank Yankee came into Col. Goddard's s office and asked for employment as a teamster.
 "Do you know how to drive oxen?'' asked Goddard.
 ''I rather reckon do" was the bash full response.
 Suppose I was a yoke of oxen,n said Goddard, getting down on ''all fours" on the office floor, land suppose would not haul, let me see what you would do to make me come up under the yoke"

"The Crime of the Century" This ls.,the very appropriate title of book that is being written by one of the ablest journalists of the present time. It is the only complete and authentic history that will or can be written of the assassination of Dr. Patrick Henry Cronin, and the chain of events that led to that strange crime.
 The book is profusely illustrated with original and skillfully executed engravings of the principal actors and scenes of the Tragedy from the forma- ton of the plot to the close of the celebrated trial it also contains a re- liable biographical sketch of the pari- otic victims. This Pictorial History of the greatest of Modern Crimes, is not book of romance but hard, solid facts and is a marvellous exempli- fication of detective skill, of the far reaching power of the law and of those charged with it's execution. This book will be read and re read by peo- pie of all ages, nationalities and con ditions, and will be sold at popular prices. Those who secure an agency for it will be extremely fortunate.

Some people have a prejudice for such feasts as 'posSum suppers, but those who have the weakness are almost fanatical in their taste.
 Just here it is well to recall the con- versation that occurred between two darkeYs, who were fellow travellers iD 8 certain direction.

 The other one couldn't stand it any longer. Stopping his companion just a, this point, he said:
 Look here, nigger, if you don't quil talkin bout dat, I'm gwine ter fall of T dis mule right here"
 This indicates how irresistible the pos sum Is when properly baked and served and no one is to be censured for having highly cultivated taste for this rieI meat.-Albany (Ga.) News.
