It was rumored around the city hall
Yesterday that one of the Seventh ward
aldermen had been lost in the shuff1e
during the inspection of the new pump
ing station. But he wasn't, for he
turned up all right at committee meet
ing late in the afternoon.
Judge Emery has been quoted as say
ing that he sends people to the work
house to be punished, but they are en-
tertalned." OF course they are, and

The hoard of education does not seem
TO have that deep-seated reverence FOR
the esthetic tastes Of Herbert Putnam,
ducal pOtentate of the library, as is held
by the library board. With the latter
Mr.. Putnam has but to express wish
and everybody is ready TO break his
neck in the haste to accomplish IT.
One of his wishes struck upon
large sized snag when it encoun-
tered the penetrating astuteness OF
A. II. Ankeny. The latter didn't see
the necessity of the school board trans
forming q janitor into limb of the law
TO produce the necessary amount or
awe in the breast Of the local juvenile
for the pile OF books owned by the
library board, reposing at the south
side branch. 1t is the ruling OF the
school board that if the library ditto
want municipal government estaO-
liShed at the high school it will have to
create it itself.
The meeting of the council tomorrow
promises to be an important one. Two
weeks ago an adjournment was taken
before all the business upon the clerk
desk was transacted. and considerable
routine matter has collected since the
adjournment. he report OF the m
Vestigating committee will be looked for
with more tnan usual interest. The
Southsiders will have chance to
fight over the location of a market
house. The new building ordinance,
with It's thlrty-twO lengthy sections,
will come up for its second reading.
There will be a big budget of bills to be
approved, and other routine matter that
will probably make the session one OF
the longest ever held by the present
council.

station will, in the course OF time. OBJ

Some of the counciImen are angry at
President Johnson and say that he is
trying TO dictate just what the council
shall do and what it shall not do. Yes
terday one of the aldermen suggested
that the office of dictator be created and
the president be gwen a fair show.
Julia Elmgren. the young woman in
whom so much interest was taken by
the kindly disposed people when she
was taken from Net COnnelly's bagnlo
last fall. is said to be dying in 4 house
of i'll fame in Duluth. Julia married a
respectable young man on Christmas
day. but left him the same day, and said
she ONLY did it to escape from the House
of the Good Shepherd. sympathy for
such woman is apparently wasted.
The WOrkhouse committee of the
council is trying to devise some plan by
which the wOrkhOuse may become q
WOrkhouSe in fact, rather than IN name.
Situated as it is in the Tenth ward,
with miles of unopened and ungraded
streets, there is plenty OF work which
might be done by the inmates. The
aldermen of the Tenth ward have taken
advantage of the labor to some eX-
tent. but they say that something
they get for nothing is worth just
about what it costs them. With
q crew OF ten labOrers hired by the city,
they claim, that they can do more work
in day than a gang OF fifty prisoners
will do in the same time. The trouble
apparently has been that there has been
practically no one to look after the men
and keep them at work. The Superin-
tendent'S duties are such that only in a
general Wav can he oversee the work.
The deputy is practically confined to the
prison building while the duties
of the guards in charge Of the
gangs seem only to be to prevent the
men from running away. The COM
mittee now proposes, if the aldermen
of the Tenth ward will cooperate with
them. to appoint a man who Will look
after the work, enforce discipline and
exercise a general supervision over the
guards. AS the work done benefits the
Tenth ward, the ward is requested to
pay one-half the salary OF the man
to be appointed. Ii TINS is
done it is expected that
the regulars who make their home in
to eat and but little to do, will give the
place a wide berth when they discover
that the good old times are past and
they must work while they are prison
els.
Why do not the members of the Bust
ness Mems association, who are mem
bers of the school board, carry theory
into effect by giving home manufactures
preference when contracts are let fol
erecting school buildings?
