penSeS was read, showing that at pres

ton. He related the history of the case.
showing that certain lands had been
condemned for the purposes of levee,
of which 10 per cent had been decided
TO the city. 1t was found that it would
cost $500, 600 to acquire the balance, and
S350,000 to complete the improvement
but that for $4,000 streets could be
graded so as to effect the same purpose
Now those who had decided their prop
erty, most of whom were poor people,
want it back, and the city is in dilem-
ma as to the exact way in which this
can be accomplished. Mr.. Ovitt pre-
scented the following bill. which he
thought would cover the ground:
A bill for an act entitled: An act to
authorize the transfer of certain land
heretofore condemned by. or conveyed
to, the city of st. Paul, for the purpose

It is doubtful whether the founder of

that the infant he nursed so tenderly

would have developed into the greatest
government in the world, foremost in
art, science, literature and enterprise.
But men are more credulous now, and
acknowledge the infnity of the human

to theater-goers as ''Lotta," has sold
her claim for $1,000 against the St. Paul
Opera House company to Mary A. Crab
tree for s., 1877. Mary. a. Crabtree now
brings suit in the United States circuit

briefly as follows: That Sept 10, 1883,
Lolita Nj. Crabtree entered into con-
tract with Edward E. Davidson and
Andrew Delaney, treasurer and secre-
tary. respectively, of the opera house
company, whereby she agreed to pur-
chase the Grand opera house, with all
the appurtenances thereof, right of way
thereunto beIOnging,and half interest
in the bill boards and bll-posting
business connected herewith: that
she paid down $1,000 to bind the
bargain. She AYERS that she bought the
property for use as an opera house;
that it was of no use for any other pur-
pose, and that for this purpose the ill.,
terest in the bill boards and bill-posting
business is essential. Also, that neither
Davidson nor Delaney had any power or
authority vested in them as secretary

Found a Vatery Grave.

The indications are that the runaway
reported in the GLOBE yesterday morn
ing, by which one of the horses was
drowned in the river at the foot of
Eagle street. also resulted fatally to the
driver of the team. 1t tranSpires that
the team belonged to John Anderson, a
Dane, who boards on Chicago avenue,
West st. Paul, and as he has not been
seen since the occurrence it is believed
that he went under the Ice. The team
was seen by several people tearing
down Eagle street at rapid gait before
the accident, but no one observed

that. Anderson was in a hurry to get
home and attempted to cross the river
