OFFICIAL AND WISE

The Rev. Nathaniel West suffered
another rebuff yesterday in the prose-
cution of his suit against the First
Presbyterian church. The reverend
gentleman applied to the supreme
court for a rehearing of his appeal,
which was recently deereed against him
by the court, but failed to obtain the
end in view. The court could see no

CATION. Three more days are likely to
elapse before the committee concludes
the work of taking testimony at ROch-
ester, when they will hold another ses-
sion in st. Paul. The evidence already
taken by the committee will fill a three

Assistant Secretary Teisberg, of the
railroad commission, is a member of the
committee to locate the Lutheran col
lege. He says it will be in the inter
ests of the college to have it located
near st. Paul and Minneapolis; that to
rebuild it i'll Iowa simply means that
the institution will cease to progress
with the times. There are members on
the committee who are adverse TO it's
removal, and the ultimate decision is
doubtful.
Col. Bobleter was at Forest Lake yes
terday. During the day Deputy State
Treasurer Sander was considerably
mystified by the receipt of a %cablegram
reading:
Sic syos nebartum. BoBLETER.
He pondered over the message, gave
his head thunderous knocks against the
wall, but all to no purpoSe-the tele-
gram was as big a mystery as ever. At
length it was decided to call in the SerV-
ices of Prof. Fletcher Williams, of the
state historical society. The reading of
the telegram took the very breath out Of
the professors body. He fell writhing
to the floor. and eight capital officials
were required to prevent the genial
secretary of historical lore and gewgaWs
from coming TO a premature end. Col.
Bobleter is expected home to-day, when
q translation will be demanded.

Extraordinary efforts are being made
by the dairy and food commission for
the operation of the law regulating the
adulteration of baking powders and
liquors. Commissioner Ives has been
sorely troubled as to the disposition of
his staff for the carrying out of the law.
more particularly in the handling of the
liquor. He found it necessary to journey
East so as to quietly cogitate over the
matter. One conclusion he has arrived
at is that Assistant Commissioner Law
renee and Secretary Bertram must be
strictly confined to the milk regime.
Chemist Eberman is also to be required
to dispense with hip ! pockets.
When the Hon. James s. Hughes, of
the public Instruction department, heard
of the Ives edict upon Prof. Eberman'S
hip pockets, he smiled, and said it re-
minded him of the Kentucky tailor.
When you are measured by a Kentucky
tailor two questions are asked, the hon
OIable gentleman explained. They are:

Mr.. Hughes thinks that Commissioner
Ives must have heard of this, and there

the chemist from the luxury of hip

Adjt. Gen. Mullen returned yesterday
frem Duluth, and speaks highly of the
conduct of Company K, Second regi-
ment of the national guard, in dispers-
ing the street rioters last Saturday.
Within twenty minutes of the call for
assistance forty members of the com
pamy were i'll line, and marching to the
scene of the conflict between the police
and rioters. Capt. Mclaughlin said he
was never better pleased i'll his life than
when he saw the glistenlng bayonets Of
the militia. Not a shot was fired by the
soldiery; the rioters dispensing in
double quick time on the prick of a
bayonet.
