A very successful concert was given
at Hotel st. Louis last night. under the
direction of A. NJ. Shuey. The large
dining room was filled with people who
highly enjoyed the affair. 1t was a very
dressy concert. and some beautiful cos
tunes were displayed. Among the
guests were a large number from the
other hotels and the cottages. The
first number was an overture
by Thyle & Ringwalrs orchestra,
and it was followed by a
duet by Miss Fleming and Mr.. Drill"

round, full and under perfect control.
Mr.. Drill has a magnificent bass voice.
Both of them were heard in solos later

lions. The SapphO Quartette contrib
uted several members, and Oscar Ring
wall gave a clarr0net solo. After the
concert there was a hop.

AN ALDERMAN'S SALARY,
Judge Smith Says 1t Cannot Be
Taken to Paw His Debts.

Ole P. Flatten, an alderman of the
Seventh ward. has found it to be some
thing of an advantage to be an alder
man. An action came up in the district
court OH the Goth of July before Judge
Smith. in which Janney, Semple & Co.
were the plaintiffs and Aid. Ole P.
Flatten was the defendant. The action
was to obtain an order of the court de-
manding the defendant to turn over to
Sheriff Eye $50 in cash and a silver
watch and chain. The judge yesterday
filed a decision in the case. In it he
says: 1.-The $3.50 ordered to be turned
over to the sheriff was money paid to
the defendant as his salary as Que OF
the aldermen of the city of Minneapolis
and had not been paid to him at the
time the order in the proceedings was
served, and was in his possession at the
time the disclosure was made. Public
policy will not permit the salary of a
public officer to be taken for his debts
in this way. 1t is ordered that so much
of said motion as asks the $50 to be
turned over to the sheriff be and the
same is here denied.
sit is further ordered that the de-
PENDANT deliver, after the service of a
copy of this order, the silver watch and
| CHAIN"
Robert Christensen, the speaker who
roasted Flatten so roundly at the Sew
enth ward indignation meeting last Sat
urday night, is the prosecuting attor-
ney. Flatten was one of the aldermen
who voted against the Anderson &
Douglas franchise.

CANT KEEP APART.
A CoIored Couple VINO Can't
Agree to Disagree.

- W
Henry James Williams and Fanny
EleOnora johnson, a divorced couple,
both colored. who continue to meet
each other occasionally, were before
Judge Mahoney yesterday, the former
as defendant and the latter as com
plainant in an assault and battery case.
It appeared that although the law has
parted the two, Fanny is very jealous
of a white woman to whom Williams
has paid some attentions, and Henry j.
is very much lncenSed because Fanny
receives calls from a duSky admirer.
Henry called on Fanny Sunday morn
Ing ana she found a fancy hairpin
in his pocket. which she supposed
was intended for her rival. She broke
it into bits, and a finish fight according
to prize-ring rules was the result.
Fanny Eleanora got the worst of
it, so she had her eX-protector arrested.
He was placed under $500 bonds to keep
the peace for six months.
Erwin C. Brown has brought an ac-
ton against William Cook and others
to have their adverse claims to the
north half of the northwest quarter and

Judge Smith yesterday listened tothe
argument in the case of the application
of the owners of Bloomington ferry
for a permanent injunction restraining
the county commissioners from building
the Minnesota river bridge at that point.
The plaintiffs claim that they were
granted an exclusive franchise, and the
state has no right to destroy their bust
ness.
Judge Hicks gave a decision yester-
day adjudging Franklin Benner entitled

REMARKS.

John Sterrett-It is very seldom that
you find a negro begging. OF course,
he may be ready, like many a white
man, to take whatever is rendered him,
but street beggars among the colored
race are very scarce.
LincenSe Inspector Rea-Purchasers
at auction sales of furniture need to be
very careful to BUY only when a first
class firm of a~uctiOneerS has the bust
ness. The amount of fraud at auction
sales is very large, and the scheme Is
generally so arranged that while eX-
penSive prices are paid for inferior II
not worthless goods, the net proceeds
of the sale are very small, so far as the
vender is concerned. There IRE several
tricks of the trade which have been de-
veloped into systematic SWIndleS.
A Wholesale Dry Goods Clerk-Did
YOU ever see a man with side WhlSkerS
who wasn't cold-blooded and selfish? If
that is a new idea to you, first run over
a list of your acquaintances who wear
side whiSkers and tell me if any of them
are warm-hearted, or noble, OF self
sacrificing. I'll bet you a dollar to a
nickel that you won't find one.
Sam MortOn-Why does not some en-
terprising genius ascertain from proml-
nent ball players why they play ball
and what they propose doing when their
connections with the diamond ceased?
Occasionally there is a paragraph on
the subject, but l never saw anything
like a complete analysis of the subject.
In travelling we meet hosts of players and
1t is amusing to see how differently
they view their profession. To some
ball-playing is strictly a business, and
a very unpleasant one. Their idea is to
make enough money out of playing to
set up in business and talk ball to their
Gust omers. Others live right up to
their incomes, lever say a cent and
commence borrowing a week after the
season is over.

wv th
pOrtation Facilities.
The citizens of South Minneapolis,
who have long been dissatisfied with
their transportation facilities, are be-
stirring themselves to obtain better
railway and street railway accommoda-
ton to the center Of the city.
A movement is in progress to form a
South Minneapolis improvement assO-
citation for the general purpose of BOOM
ing that portion Of the city. and eSpe-
cially obtaining the transportation.
There are hopes OF having the South
Minneapolis depot Of the Chicago, Mill
waukee Il st. Paul road moved from its
present situation to Franklin and Cedar
avenues. At the place where the depot
is now situated but few can use 1t. but
if removed to the proposed location, it
will provide Quick transit up town for a
good many people.
asked to extend the proposed cable line
on the Bloomington route down Frank
lin avenue from Sixteenth avenue, from
there to Cedar, and down Cedar as far
as the old line extends.
A Mlnnehaha avenue Improvement
association has been organized, with
the object of opening M!nnehaha ave-
nue. through the unused land near the
Milwaukee shops.
The cable line replacing the old motor
line will not be put in this fall, as eX-
pected. The work will begin in the
spring, after the frost is out OF the
ground.

President Northrop to Deliver the
Address-ExpositiOn Notes.
The exposition directors met yeSter-
day morning and transacted business of
no especial interest. The committee
on entertainment then met and de-
cided to invite President Northrop, OF
the state university, to deliver the adj
dress on opening day. Invitations to
participate in the opening exercises
are to be sent to Gov. Merriam and staff;
Gen. Ruger and staff, of the department
of Dakota; Brig. Gen. Mason and staff,
Fort Smelling; all troops, the state mill
tia, cavalry troops, university cadets
and uniformed societies and the fire
department. Another athletic feature
was added in the shape of a dancing eX-
hibition between NJ. lie Roux and
j. j. Lindley. 1t is also suggested that
the Misses Marsh's gymnasium class of
young ladies be invited 70 give a club
swinging exhibition.
At the exposition the carpenters are
busy arranging for the exhibits. The
floor over the light we'll has been taken
down, a large force of clerks are at
work in the office and advertising de-
partment, and there is a general hustle
along the line.

The examination of Edward M. Helm,
the Young man arrested for the seduc-
ton of Cora l.. Madison, a girl of six
teen years, who is his cousin, is set for
this morning i'll the municipal court. 1t
is stated on information, which pre-
sumably came from Helm and his
friends, that the girl will not appear
against him, and it is expected
that the case will be dis
missed, although she made affidavits
charging Helm with running her and
having previously procured an abortion.
1t is reported, too, on what seems to be
good authority, that a well-knoWn lum-
herman intends to have Helm arrested
upon the charge of adultery with his
wife. Whether there is anything in
these reports will probably develop to-

MEN OF MINNEAPOLIS.

Manager W. q. Byron is afraid that
the "nude-in-art' cranks are preparing
for another warfare against Sculpture
hall at the exposition. "This year" he
remarked yesterday, 1--WE are going to
give people what they want. If they
want the statues dressed up all they
what kind of toys they should
wear and We'll put 'em On"
Ex-Detective QuinIan is back from
Spokane Falls on a short business trip,
and the picture he draws of that -four
ishing town is sufficient to pull the tide
of emigration in that direction. "SpO-
kane" he says, 'is just like Minneapo-
lis was at the height of its boom. and
to borrow an expression from Col. Matt
Lab, there's more money to be made
there than some people have hay"
It will please a good many people to
learn that Col. John L. West in all
probability is going to manage the hotel
that bears his name himself. When he
ran the Nicollet he was an ideal land
lord. OF course the West is somewhat
above the condition which makes it in
cumbent for the landlord to shake every
guest by the hand II take him out rid
ing in the cool of the afternoon. but at
the same time the colOnel's comfortable
figure and assuring smile will work to
advantage, and prove a magnet in at
tracing custom.
Manager Friedlander caught sight of
Mr.. Wilbur standing in the flies on
the stage at Harris theater the other
afternoon at a matinee. Just then a
boy came into the lobby, trying to sell
some fly paper. Friedlander, who is an
incorrigible punster, Immediately
Jumped at the chance. "Here, boy"
said he, ''gO back Oh the stage to that
mar who wears eyeglasses and
need some fly paper for the scenery"
1t was a rather tough pun for Fried
lander, even, but he congratulated him
self that he had the drop on Wilbur
until he happened to go to the box

time A. j. Blethen was rustling around

his presence, so Mr.. Blethen was sum-
