Kick on a Pumping Station.

Special 10 The GIODe.
ANoKA, Sept IO.-The citizens Of Center
ville of this county, are considerably worked
up over the location of the new pumping
station of the ST. Paul water works on the
south end of Baldwin lake, in section 81,
township 81, range %. A number of them
were in the city to-day getting counsel as TO
their rights in the premises. The question
of lowering this lake and others above it two
or three feet so as to afford drainage to large
area of swampy lands in Centerville and Col
number of years. and the prospects of having
the lakes raised instead of lowered will meet
with general disapproval and considerable
litigation, the supposition being that the
next move will be 10 build dam across Rice
creek, the outlet of this chain of lakes. The
project is also likely to meet with opposition
from parties owing mill property on Rice
creek, as the reported amount of water to be
taken daily will destroy their power.

this city. Last winter was very hard one
for the Indians. Owing to the absence OF the
reindeer and the impossibility of hunting
the moose successfully, on account OF the
lack of snow, ten persons succumDed at Fort
Wrigley Mr. Black fears that the mortality
during the coming winter will also be great,
unless there comes a heavy fall of snow,
Provisions. he states, gave out at the Fort as
early as last January. Flour is dear enough
there at all times, the regular price being $50
a bag at Fort Wrigley, while it is S27 bag at
Fort Simpson. But Mr.. Black says he would
have given 5000 a bag last winter if he could
have purchased some and given the Indians
a share. The distress in that district was
really terrible and the suffering intense. He
had to leave himself to avoid starvation. At,
Fort Laird seven died from starvation last
winter.

Scenes and Incidents Of a Red
Letter Day in Fair
History.

Yesterday was great day for st. Paul
and a red letter event for the State Fair.
In casting about for the various attrac-
tions, the management of the big show
could not have alighted upon a happier
expedient than that of securing the
state military and the veterans on the
same day. The combination was a great
one. 1t drew not only the soldiers, old
and new, to the city, with their myriads
of friends, but was recognized through
out the state as a great event, and the
proper time to make their semi-annual
trip to the Capital City. They came in
thousands.
''They came as the leaves come,
When forests are rended;
They came as the waves come
When navies are stranded.
The city has seldom contained a more
dense swarm of humanity than that
which yesterday crowded every street,
packed every hotel and tested the car
rying capacity of every railroad. The
several Tegimental reunions and the
cOnclave of the Knights of Pythias
served to swell the numbers and make
the day memorable. The State Fair
was. of course, the daylight feature, and
something over 10000 is the estimated
attendance. But even this did not
drain the city at any time. The streets
were thronged from daylig ht until mid
night, and there was an inceSSant blare
of bands and the regular tramp of
drilled footsteps throughout. a night
the illumination was as grand as
on Tuesday, and the space enclosed in
the huge square bounded by Third,
Wabasha, Sibley and Seventh was the
prOmenading theater for tn ouSands
until late at night. Business doomed in
every line, and particular, and in one day
the long season of dullneSS was swept
away into the past.
The Fair is now at its height. In
creasing attendance and interest are eX-
pected to keep pace from this time on.
To-day will be devoted to Minneapolis,
and the Flour City is expected to turn
out her legionS as always. Tomorrow
will be st. Paul day, and the city will
show by its attendance what it can do
in the way of a crowd when the time
and occasion demand it.
