W. H. Beers, president of the New
York Life Insurance company, had
never been west of Albany before he
came to st. Paul yesterday. His first
impression must have been favorable,
for almost all of the most distinguished
men in the state were assembled to
greet him. j. 81. Gregory and j. j.
Parker invited d large number of men
to meet Mr.. Beers and his party at the
Minnesota club last night. The club
was crowded all the evening with men
whose names are written upon the
pages of MinnesOta's history. The men
in whose honor the reception was given
were w. II. Beers, W. H. Appleton. w.
w. Buckley, W. T. Booth and j. 1.
Hearns, all members of the New York
Life insurance company, OF which
Messrs. Gregory and Parker are the st.
Paul representa- a-iveS. A substantial sup
per was served in the dining room on the
ground floor of the club. The guests
we're received as they came i'll by the
two Young hosts and introduced to the
eminent New Workers. The affair was
purely informal, and no programme was
arranged. As the delicacieS of the
menu were disposed of and the spirits
of the party aroused by the sparkling
wine. tongues became lOOSened, and
several brief impromptu speeches were
made. That of }. j. Hill, president of
the Manitoba railroad, was especially
happy and to the point Mr.. Hill eX-
GELS in these little informal talks, and
that given by him last night, while he
was totally unprepared to make
speech, was worthy Of the occasion
and of the man. In his characteristic
vein Mr. Hill described the resources
of the country to the MOI thWest
of st. Paul, intersperslng his re-
marks with many an anecdOte and
many bright thought. MeSSrs.
Gregory and Parker demonstrated. their
ability as entertai ers, and everyone
spent a most pleasant evening. The
gathering was probably tine most repre-
sentative that ever assembled in st.
Paul, and if all of those present carry
insurance policies in Mr.. Beers COM
pany. its future success in this city will
equal that of the past. Besides j. ii.

July last these commissioners wrote:
The Undersigned commissioners of Mar
shall county hereby make known to your eX-
cellency that on June IL. 1899. hailstorm
visited this county and totally destroyed all
growing crops in its path; that there are
forty seven families reduced to destitute cir

farmers living in the district were sufferers

which makes their loss now doubly burden

should take these destitute people into your
consideration and extend to them some state
aid which they are much in need of.

Falk Gjertsen IS appointed chairman of
the commission selected by Coy. Mer-
riam, and in letter of instruction the
chief executive of the state requires the
commission to meet at Warren tO-m0r-

make careful investigation and report
to the governor the relief required, and
what purchases of supplies are to be

Relieve the Increased School
Enrolment.
The public schools of the city con-
tInue in an overcrowded condition, de-
spite the efforts of the board of educa-
ton to relieve certain buildings by the
establishment of annex rooms. In con-
sequence Of this, at special meeting of
the board last evening, vigorous pol
icy was lnaugUTated by the decision to
build more schools. The committee on
schools made the following recommend
atiOnS:
That new building be erected west
of the Jackson school: that new build
ing be erected. west of the Webster
school; that new building be erected
east of the Sibley school; that a new
building be erected between the Adams
and Munroe schools; that new build
ing be erected northwest of the:Cleye-
land school; that, also, additions be
made to the Sibley and Adams schools;
that a site be purchased and part of the
old Humboldt school be removed to the
vicinity of the Lafayette school. "A site
will also be required for the school to
be built between theAdams and MunrOe
buildings.
Inspector Wright moved the adoption
of these recommendations. 1.-The
crowded condition of our schools" he
remarked, lis unprecedented in the
history of this board. There is no more
startling illustration of the growth of
the city than the overcrOwded state of
our schools. We are bound to find
proper accommodation for all children: !:
and it is well the citizens should know
the facts of the case, in view of the
recent criticism about the board build
ing too many schools"
The report of the committee on
schools was adopted, as were also the
following teachers appointments:
Miss Cora Glidden, Harrison school; !;
Miss Laura Butler, jackson; Miss K.
r. Hurley, Lafayette; Miss Janet For

The health department is persistent
in its efforts to suppress the sale i'll st.

that since Judge Nelson's decision was
rendered the larger shops have been
freely selling uninSpected meat shipped

pers in consecutive order. Rev. DR..
Forbes was to have read a paper yester-

Owing to the small attendance this was
postponed until next week. He merely
gave an outline OF his ideas on the sub
iect. saying that in the Methodist body
the laity took much less part in the
actual affairs of the church than in any
other denomination. He advocated a
general discussion of the best methods
to be used towards interesting them. A

was postponed until next Monday, when
Dr.. Forbes will proceed to throw fur
