on two drafts. There are about dozen
different counts in the complaint, which
is just tritle under five feet long. and

of Fancy as Yet.

The committee of the Woman's
Christian Temperance union met at the
coffee house Yesterday afternoon to con-
slider the proposition to erect building
on First avenue south, opposite the new
Bank of Commerce building. 1t was ex-
pected that other propositions would be
laid before the committee, but there
were none. so the original proposition
was discussed at some length. No con-
was not exactly suited with the plan of
having the building front on First ave-
nue. south. Another meeting will be
held soon, when some definite action
will be taken.

IN THE WIND.
A Little Gale OF Wind for Uncle
Harlow Gale

Aid. Gray, of the Thirteenth ward,
the horticulturist who fittingly presides
over the market committee, says that
the recent action of that committee rec
ommending the extension of Harlow
Gales market contract doesn't settle
the matter, not by several rows of apple
trees" 81 have always been opposed
to extending the franchise" said he,
but majority of the committee
favored it. and SO the report will be
read that way, but there are several
ways of getting at such matter, and |
think l have the scheme nicely blocked"
He didn't say exactly what his plan
was, but intimated that he had sur
prise in store for somebody when the
matter comes up in the council this
week.

her almost white hair waving IN the

she was removed to the central station.

Charles S. Warden, an employe in
Burleson's confectionery store, s12

Inc Narrow Gauge Spirit ThaC
Affiicts Minneapolis Through
Certain Aldermen.
Notwithstanding the opposition of
some mislnformed and prejudiced alder
men to the maintenance of ball park
in the heart of the city the committee
having in charge the matter of allowing
a wooden grand stand and seats on the
new grounds back of the West hotel
decided yesterday to recommend that
permission to build be granted.
The committee consisting of the fire
depar tment commissioners and the
alderm ell of the Fourth ward, to whom
the matter of the building of the grand
stand, which Will be inside the fire linn
its, had been left, gathered together a
few minutes past 2 o'clock yesterday.
MesSrS. Morton and Hoch, owners of
the ball team. were present with a
small aggregation of ball cranks. who
were anxious regarding the ball
grounds. A few of the opposing ele-
ment gathered around Aid. Loye and
presented petition bearing the names
of few men who didn't want the
stand built. Mr.. Hoch presented an
other petition. with good deal longer
list of residents in that part of the city,
: WHO dSheu tlat INC cOiIicll grant Tue
petition of the base ball people.
Aid. Loye, after stating, to begin
with, that he was not opposed to base
ball itself. went on to explain that he
was, and that he thought it demoraliz-
ing and general nuisance. Aid.
Woodward, Phillips and Potter spoke
in favor of it, and told of the insignifi-
canoe in numbers of the people who
oppose the ball ground. as compared
with the host who would like to have
the park in the central part of the city
and easily accessible. 1t was also urged
that the place chosen for it was ont of
the way, and that the management of
the West hotel would be almost the
only people who could object to it, and
they had signed petition in its favor.
Aid. Loye moved to grant the prayer
of those who signed the remOnstranc e,
and the motion was lost by vote of 6
=. Another season of discussion t
which convinced no one, followed, afte :,
which Aid. Woodward moved THAR
the prayer of the signers of the original
petition be granted, and the motion was
carried by the same vote that killed the
first, Aid. LOye and Cole voting against
the latter and in favor of the former.
After the meeting Aid. Cole said that
if permission to build was granted, the
first game would be followed by the
commencement of an action to have it
declared nuisance, and an injunction
issued to prevent their playing there.
A careful canvass of as many aldermen
as could be conveniently seen yesterday
indicates that there will be at least
majority of four for building the grand
stand when the matter comes to a vote
in the council. This is allowing that
those who have not been seen are
against it. and that five of those inter-
viewed are in the doubtful list.
1t is expected that Loye and Cole will
put in a minority report, and fight the
thing.

The rumor that Reddy Hackett and
one of his pals had been arrested in

Though He Is Still Uncon-
SciOus.
Officer Mclaughlin still continues to
improve very slowly, and it is thought
now that his ultimate recovery is only
a question of time if no unforeseen
complications arise. He is still semi
unconscious, however, and at times de-
lirious. Yesterday forenoon he got out
of bed and put on his fur coat and some
other clothing. When Officer Fox,
who was with him. asked him
what he was doing, he replied
that he must go down town and
get shaved. 1t was only by force that
he was compelled to abandon the idea
of going to the barber shop. The ply
sicians, however, do not consider his
symptoms as indicating any new dan
ger.

firms the report of Hackett's arrest in

The Methodists Will Boycott the
Reporters--The Week of PRAYER

RepOrterS--The Week of Prayer.
At the meeting of the Methodist min
listers yesterday morning it was decided
to hereafter exclude all the newspaper
reporters from the meetings. and have
one of the reverend gentlemen officiate
as reporter, in order that accuracy"
might be secured in the reports. When
the Red Rock camp meeting question
came up it was stated that the directors
were in sympathy with the ministers,
but saw no way to avoid keeping the
grounds open on Sunday. The matter
was laid over until the next meeting.
1.-THE Week of Prayer was the SUBJ
Ject of an interesting paper read at the
meeting of the Presbyterian ministers
by Rev. r. S. Feagles, of the Bethle-
hem church. He advocated the holding of
the week of prayer some time in Octo-
Der OF November. 4 discussion fol-
lowed.
The Congregational ministers listened
to paper on 1.-The Scriptural Basis for
Sunday legislation by Rev. George
S. Bascom, and agreed upon form of
ordination certificates.

Poison RInps.

In Italy the poison ring was carried
to the perfection Of malicious imagin-
ing. he ''aneilo della morte" was
occasionally resorted to as means of
putting an enemy out of the way. A
hollow point in the bezel, worked by
spring, communicated with the re.
ceptacls behind, for the poison, in
such way that its villainous wearer
could, in giving his adversary hearty
grip Of the hand, inflict a mortal
scratch. The point was fashioned 10
look like an ornament. SO deadly and
enduring was the poison contained in
these rings, that some twenty or more
years ago death was nearly oscasioned
by handling one unwittingly. A curio
fancier was turning over gems in a
shop in Paris, when he fell fainting
and was with difficulty restored. 1t
was found that he had been wounded
by poison ring.
This instrument OF destruction was
also worn in perilous times, in order
that the owner might commit suicide
rather than fall into an enemys
hands. Another kind was furnished
at the back with slide, which could

would drop the poison into the wine
he offered to a hated guest. This kind
was affected by Caesar Borgia, whose
own signet ring bore an inscription
little suited to his character-"Fais CO
que dois, avien que pourra. Another
form of poison ring was the one which
had for its bezel the key to caslet.
The wearer would hand his ring in q
confidential manner to visitor, and
desire him to hand him some article
from his jewel box. The key, in be.
ing turned in somewhat stiff lock,
would give the unwary confidant a
prick, which had for him fatal results.

Lifo Insurance.

The large amount of life insurance
business carried on among people
whose average weekly earnings are
small is little understood. A Bidde-
ford, Me-, paper calls attantion to the
amount of Industrial insurance car
ried on in that city by one company,
it being sufficient to support five
agents, and keep them busy, too. The
books of the agency in Biddeford and
Saco show the names of between eight
thousand and nine thousand policy
holders, their policies ranging from
less than $50 to 81, 500. Amy person
between 2 and 70 years old is insured
and large proportion is upon chill
dren. The policies are paid within
twenty-four hours of the death of the
holder and the agents say their pay
ment often has saved the family from
calling upon the city for burial ex-
penses. The payments are payable
weekly and range from five cents to
ninety, the collections being made by
agents, largely in the evenings, the
whole 1900 policy holders being visit
ed every week.-Lewiston Journal.

Dion BOucicault narrates in North
American Review the way that "Trip
Van Wrinkle" came upon the stage.
In the summer of 1866, he says, Mr..
Joseph jefferson arrived in London
from Australia, at an unfortunate mo-
ment. American comedians were not
regarded with favor by the London
public. The failure of Mr.. Owens was
of recent date Mr.. jefferson had no
new plays. These characters which
Mr.. Boueicault had written for him
Salem Seudder, in 1.-THE Octoroon,
and Caleb Plummer, in 'Dot"-had
been played out. So this bright come
dian found no door open to him. The
manager of the Adelphi hazarded the
remark, IF Mr.. Boucicault will write
new piece foryou l will give you an
appearance. He ought to do it, for he
told me you were the best eccentric
comedian Living"
So Jefferson came to Boucicault,
and they tossed over dozen subjects.
He expressed great affection for RIP
Van Winkle," an old and very bad
melodrama. He admitted that the
piece had failed; he had shown il to
Webster, who objected to producing
such a rag. Boucicault pointed out
that the character Of a ragged old sot,
however picturesque, was not an at
tractive object through three acts.
Stay" cried the author, "a thought
occurs to me. Suppose we sweep aside
Washington Irving, and make Rip q
young, buoyant, ne'er-do-well, with q
young wife and young child. Let
him be the playfellow Of all the chill
dren, the lover OF all the girls, O vii
lage Bohemian. Let US carry that
character through the first and second
acts. and bring him out in the third
pged In appearance, but fresh in heart
after his long sleep"
Jefferson was not "enthused" with
this new form of the story, but yield
ed, as he saw no other way TO obtain a
London appearance. In few weeks
the piece was written, and the Adelphi
theatre was placed at the disposal OF
Mr. Boucicault. Mr.. Jefferson's agree
ment with the manager, Mr.. Webster,
was to share the gross receipts nightly
after f70 pounds had been deducted
for expenses. The agreement between
Boucicault and jefferson was that the
author should receive one-third of JET.
ferson's share. The play and the
comedian made the success of that sea.

year Jefferson went to New York, and
commenced a career too we'll known

Not What It Used to Be.

1t is by no means uncommon that in
the course of being rebuilt a town
loses the charm of old associations.
An English writer tells story which
shows this point with unconscious alb
surdity.
A certain mayor of Norwich was Sc
lected for royal favor because of his
kind treatment of the wretched rem
nant of the English army which
found shelter in the city after an ill
fated expedition against the Dutch.
When the mayor was presented at
court, his majesty honored him by a
few words of conversation.

foundation of his dietary. Potatoes
