ADvENrIsTs' CAM.- MEETING.
A Village OF Tents Now at Pleas
ant Park.

The twenty-first annual conference OF
the Seventh-Day AdventistS OF Minnie
sofa commenced yesterday morning. In
accordance with their usual custom on
similar occasions, they are living IN
truly primitive style-dwelling in tents.
The camp is located in Pleasant Park,
South Minneapolis, about block from
the motor line which leads to WaShburn
park. Several weeks ago some prepara-
tory work of general nature was begun,
and about week ago the first tents
were pitched. Since that time campers
are coming on the grounds daily, not
only from the city, but from other parts
of the state. A large number are eX-
pected to camp on the grounds during
the coming week. To-day there are 125
tents pitched and Others in process of
erection, while busy hands are engaged
in tastefully arranging their own tents
so as to present a home like appear
ance. The work is scientifically
divided, so that while all are busy
everything passes off smoothly and
orderly. The tents are arranged on
five streets and numbered ill accord
ance with tue usual plan of numbering
houses IN the city. LII fact. the camps
may be called cotton city, containing
not only family tents, but book tent,
dining tent, furniture tent, reception
tent and provision stand. There are
also at present four other large tents i'll
which public services will be held-two
for children's and young peoples meet
ings. one for preaching in the German
and another for preaching in the Scan
dinavian language. The large pavilion
in which services i'll English will be
held, is now being prepared for
use. The tents are so firmly
staked and the campers so accustomed
to camping that the storms of the past
few days have hlndered but little. if
any. The sun soon dries the ground,
leaving it all the better for the rain.
Several ministers from abroad are pres
ent to explain the Scriptures as they un-
derstand them. Four classes for in
struction have been in progress during
the past week. One of especial inter
est to Americans is in the in
terest of the National Religious
Liberty association. This associa-
ton numbers about 1000. Its
principles are claimed to be the same
as those for which our forefathers
fought and upon which our fundamen-
tai law is based. Beginning with
to-day, regular programme will be an
nounced, to continue through the week.
1t is understood, however, that there
are to be preaching services each after
noon at 2:30 and 7:30 respectively. The
pavilion is ample. well seated and
lighted, and all are welcomed.

MINISTERIAL DOiNGs.
Regular Monday Grind of the
Various Associations.

Various Associations.
The Methodist ministers met as usual
yesterday morning, and listened to the
report of the committee on testimonial
to Rev. w. r. Marshall, pastor of the
Simpson Avenue church, who is about
to depart on a trip to Europe. A cor
dial letter of recommendation which
had been prepared by the committee
was adopted, addressed to the clergy Of
the old country. The gentleman made
a fitting response, and the assembled
brethren wished him God speed on his
journey. Rev. David Tice read paper
on SWedenborg, which was discussed
at length. The committee appointed to
district the city for parish work reported
that no meeting had been held yet.
Brother Martin gave a brief account of
his visit to the Garrett Biblical institute
at Evanston, ILL., Notice was given of
the convention of the Ministerial assO-
citation and Epworth league, to be held
at Richfeld Tuesday and Wednesday OF
this week, May 81 and 2S.
The Presbyterian ministers had little
of Importance to discuss. but Rev. DR..
Wells put himself on record as being
with the police in the recent decision IN
the South Minneapolis case, and said
that he thought an injustice had been
done. He will bring the matter before
the meeting of the ministers association
next Monday morning.
The Baptist ministers did not meet.
but it was learned that DR.. H. G. Mabie.
of the Central Baptist church. had just
been elected secretary of the missionary
union of the Baptist denomination. Mr..
Hughes, leading member of the
church, said that it was not yet known
whether the pastor would accept the
position or not. He will probably de-
eide in few days. Should he accept.
he will be obliged to leave the city and
the church would be without pastor.

Four Bad Boys Are Sent to the
Reform School,

Four Bad Boys Are Sent to the
Reform School.
Guy Engstrom and Andrew Smith,
the two young burglars who were cap
tured by Officer John Calvin in Bridge
square commission house Sunday night
with lot of fruit packed up ready for
removal. admitted their guilt In the
municipal court yesterday, and Judge
Mahoney sent them both to the Reform
school.
Sam Martinson and William Her
manson, two tough newsbOys, were
charged with the willful destruction OF
property. The complaint was made by
l.. Mowry, who owns the dwell
ing at 62O South Fifth street.
Mr.. Mowry informed the court
that on Saturday last he visited his
house, which at present is vacant, ana
found that some one had torn down the
lead water pipes in the kitchen. While
he was there the two boys came in. On
the outside they had wagon in when
there was about $50 pounds of lead pipe
and a hatchet. The boys ran away. but
were captured after long chase. Both
of them denied stealing the pipe or
knowing anything about it, but both OF

to the reform school. Mrs. HermanSon
pleaded hard to be allowed to take her
boy home, but as he had been in
the Reform school before, Judge
Mahoney said he would send him to the
reform school to keep him out of states
prison. As young HermanSOn was led
towards the cells be shook his little INST
at the officer who arrested him and
threatened to ''getevenH with him when
he was released.
The case Of George w. Smedly, who
was charged with the larceny of lead
pipe from Washington rink, was dis
! missed. David Rose was charged with
with petit larceny. David went to
Father Dagnault and told him pitlfui
story and succeeded in coming" the
priest out of S25. He pleaded guilty
and was sent to the wOrkhouse for
thirty days. Ten drunks, four dis
Orderlies and three vagrants
were disposed of in the usual manner.
Claus Sievers pleaded guilty to the lar
cenv of wearing apparel belonging to
Nels Anderson, valued at S21. He was
given the choice of paying fine of $40,
or thirty days in the WorkhOuSe. a
Bostrom was charged by park police
man with driving a grocery wagon on
Lake OF the Isles boulevard. Bostrom
admitted the fact, but explained that he
had taken his family out for pleasure
drive. Judge Mahoney informed the
park policeman who made the arrest
that Bostrom or any other man had a
perfect right to take his family out driv-
ing OH the boulevard in any kind OF a
wagon he happened to possess. The
boulevard, 'said Judge Mahoney. lis not
for the exclusive use OF those who own
carriages, and no man is obliged to hire
a carriage if he wants to take his family
out for drive. The ordinance simply
forbids any one to drive wagon loaded
with goods or other material on the
boulevard. That is to say, the boule-
ward is not to be used for business pur-
poses" Mr.. Bostrom was discharged.

ANUS

Later On" by the Hallen and Hart
company, was presented at the Grand
for the first time in the city last even
ing. to an audience that filled nearly
every seat on the first floor. The play
itself is of the usual order of farce
comedies, with but slight attempt at
q plot, and was written by II. Grattan
DOnnelly, the author of Natural Gas"
and several comedies of this order. The
individuals in the company are all eX-
ceptiOnally clever. among whom are
Annie Lewis, Mollie Fuller, Lille
Maehl, Carrie Perkins, 10 j. Sullivan.
Rufus Broderick, besides the stars.
Hallan and Hart are both clever men,
both as singers, dancers ana fun makers.
Hallan appeared in the character of Jack
Plunger, better on horses, and Hart
as jolly Todd, a boOkmaker. The
music in the production is especially
pleasing, the most OF which is probably
original and especially written for this
play. HalIen and Miss Fuller executed
a clever dance in the last act, which re-
ceived a double encore. Many new
things and novelties were introduced.
The performance will be repeated to-
night and tomorrow evening. it being
especially stated by the management
there will be no Wednesday matinee.
Robert Macaire" as presented by the
Baker company last night was we'll re-
ceived by an enthusiastic audience at
the Harris. Deshon and Amsden as the
two thieves were intensely amusing.
Mr. Deshon is probably the best Jacques
Stroppe that ever visited Minneapolis.
Miss Diard sang the lullaby in a charm
ing manner; Kitty Marcellu5 made a
captivating Fanchon, and Mr.. Drew's
interpolated solo was eXcellently rem
dered. Messrs. Clark, Tetley, Cox and
Miss Mamie Scott also did well. Miss
Marie Dressler again took the house by
storm, and her clever impersOnatiOn of
the princess was distinct feature. AL
together it was an admirable pro-
gramme, and should prove a strong
drawing card for Manager Baker. There
will be a special matinee on Friday,
May 80, Decoration Day. and Robert
Nacaire" will remain the attraction.

"If the girls had any gumption," said
club man to a Washington Star re-
porter the other day, ''they would or
ganize in favor Of reform as to theater
going. AS things are now it is expected
that fellow who invites a young
woman to go to the play with him shall
pay s. for two reserved seats in the Or
chestra, even If no chaperon is to be
provided for. Lately the girls have
been getting to expect boxes.
but as matter of fact, in the thea
ters of this city excellent seats can al
most invariably be obtained for so cents
| apiece simply by buying admission
tickets and taking chances on the re-
suit. 1t isn't so dignified as having the
| coupons for stalls in your pocket. but it
has several important points to recon-
| mend it. Just about as much fun is OBJ
tanned tor one-third of the money, and
thus one can afford to take girl to the
| play just three times as often. You
| see, young men in Washington are
| mostly poor, and cannot afford S3 or
$3.50 for such luxury.
''As for the ehaperons. it is curious
| thing that the custom of employing
their watchful services has not yet be-
come by any means SO general at the
| capital as it is in other Eastern cities,
where people never think of permitting
daughter to 60 to the theater unat-
tended by a duenna. There are a
good many Washingtonians of the best
set who do not hesitate to intrust their
fair maidens to such good young men of
their intimate family acquaintance as
they deem worthy of the confidence.

system, Oh the generol principle that it
is just as well not to put premium sn

the no-chaperon plan that | ever heard

town that was born in, where it was
customary for the girls to go to Phila-
| delphia to the theaterN and afterward
put up at a hotel in the city for the
night-there being no boats to tax G
them back-returning home the next
morning. Everything about it was
managed on entirely proper and deco
rous principles, but from conventional
standpoint the scheme was certainly

The Council Committee Will Not
Change the Recommendation.
The committee on printing of the
council. at It's meeting yesterday. re-
solved not to readvertise for bids for
the city printing. This action of the
committee was brought about by the
following communication from City At
torney r. D. Russell.
To the Committee on Printing of the Coun-
cil-Gentlemen: In response to your re-
quest for an opinion as to the action OF the
council ordering q readyertisement for blos
for The advertising for the ensuing year. L
have to say that section thirteen, chapter
eleven. of the charter provides that the con-
tract shall be let TO the lowest bidder taxing
INTO consideration the character and value OF
the papers bidding us mediums FOR aqVertls
ing, which means that the council shall eXef-
else its Judgment in selecting the paper, the
same as a merchant or any other advertiser
would in trying to reach the public. In form
ing this Judgment circulation among the TAX
payers OF the city and price shoulu be con-
sidered. This section is peeullar, III ina! IL
requires the contract to be let OH the coming
in of the bids. 1t provides further that II
the proposals exceed 30 cents per inch they
shall be thrown out 1t Is my opinion thaG
when the bids do not exceed thai hgure ana
are regular they should be acted on and the
contract ordered with one Of them. and the
council has no right to throw them all OUT
and order a Reimbursement Such course
is unfair to the bidders and not warranted by
the charter.
The committee agreed to submit re-
port recommending that the contract be
awarded to the Minneapolis Tribune at
% cents per inch. 1t is probable that
should the action of the committee be
indorsed by the council the Times
will carry the matter into the courts, as
it is claimed that the bid of Is cents
made by that paper is the most advan-

The Strike Postponed.

A special meeting of the printers
union was held in Labor Temple Sur
day to discuss the question of shorten
ing the hours of labor or increasing the
wages. The action of the Minneapolis
Typothet@ in opposing the reduction of
hours was sharply criticised. The Gus
tomary course of procedure was adopt
ed and the matter will be laid before
the International Typographical union
at the convention to be held at Atlanta,
Ga, in two weeks, by Delegate A. j.
Mullen. 1t is quite certain that walk
out will be ordered; this means that all
the union job printers now employed in
the city will be called out and work in
that line will come practically to a

ALL IN THE FAMILY.
A Divorced Couple Quarreling
Over Money Deposited by Son.

Judge Rea and jury are listening TO
the tale of the woe which befel John
Nusser and his family, although John
and his wife are now divorced. In 1884
Mrs. Nusser secured divorce from her
husband on the ground of cruel and in
human treatment. After that time
Mrs. Nusser, as she alleges, gave her
son, John Nusser Jr., s661 to be de
posted in the First National bank for
her. The young man, it seems, depos--
tied the money in his own name, and
then died. His father became admins
traitor of his estate. and now the father
and mother are left to fight over a mat
ter which young John could decide,
were he only here. Mis-. Nusser sues
the bank to recover the money. Her
erstwhile husband is also party to the
suit, he claiming the money as part OF
his sons estate.

commander of the government dredge
boat, Gen. Barnard, by Capt. Reno, of

other effort will soon be made to reach
the foot of Washington avenue with his
steamer. A short time ago trial was
made, but the boom across the river off
Fisherman's island, close to the mouth
of Minnehaha creek, made ltimpossible
for the boat to proceed any further.
Since then the obstruction has been
removed, and the steamer will make
another trial as soon as it is through

holding there must be actual malice
shown, and that, If the regulations of

that there was little prospect for agree

THE PoLICE COMMISSION
Transacts Only Routine Business
at the Meeting Yesterday.

at the Meeting Yesterday.
Only routine business was transacted
at the meeting of the police commission
yesterday. Owing TO the fact that AS
sistant Attorney Hall had not furnished
a transcript of the evidence no action
was taken on the report of Supt.
Bracket in the White case. Mayor
Babb thought that the commission
would not interfere in the matter until
it had been decided by the district court.
"If new trial is granted" he said.
''then we have nothing to do, and if ltis
denied we had better wait until that
time comes before we take any action"
The mayor said, however, that the COM
mission would investigate the case thor
oughly to determine whether the Off
GERS merited reproof or commendation.
He said he was in favor of sitting it to
the bottom and taking such action as
might seem proper when all the facts
are known. Officer Collins was called
in and reprimanded for his trouble with
Sergeant Leonard. Bills and pay roll
tor the month were approved.
