the floor at one time with perfect COM
fort. The festivities were kept up until
a late hour, very few of the guests
leaving until the dance programme was
completed.
1t was estimated that upwards of
1000 people were present, and the scene
i'll the street when the ball broke up
rivals description. The street was one
mass OF carriages, public and private.
and it seemed as if the steady stream of
vehicles was interminable.
One point in connection with the vast
affair was food for remark by those in
terested in the temple itself. The drill
hall was found to be perfect in it's
acoustic properties, there being no
echo, and hardly vibration to the
tones of the music, the sound being
diffuSed equally to all parts of the hall.
The lighting was also pronounced per-
feet; little dazzling, perhaps, from
the gallery, but on the floor so perfect
that not shadow was cast.
The main thing to be favOrably COM
mented upon was the construction of
the building, which certainly had as Sc
we're test as will ever be again given
it. With the immense crowd of dancers
upon the floor at one time, not tremOr
was felt to the massive structure, fact
that pleased the Knights not little.
Undoubtedly the ball was social sue
cess unparalleled in the history of the
best circles of Minneapolis society.

Although Zion commandery has had

Although Zion commandery has had
the honor of giving the first Masonic
spread, it is, in fact, only the initial one
to many others which are to follow by
other branches of the order, and it is
probable that the near future will see
the Masonic Temple the theater for g
series of social triumphs. Already ar
rangementS are being perfected tor the
holding of reception. probably under
the auspices of the whole Masonic or
der, which will be magnificent affair,
the date not yet being set. 1t is under
stood, however, that it will be held
early in June. AT that time the whole
building will be thrown open to the
guests, when all of the lodge rooms will
be in perfect order. This will be fol-
lowed by festive occasions given by the
other societies having rooms in the
building. 1t is understood that at no
distant date the Knights of Pythias,
who boast of great numerical and social
strength in the city and Northwest, will
give an event of some sort, in which
they will strive to rival in magnificence
the grand ball of last evening.
The Various Details.
For a week past scores of workmen
have been engaged in putting the finish
ing touches to the palatial rooms and
preparing every detail, so as to have
everything in perfect order when the
night of the ball arrived, and their eff
forts were crowned with perfect sue
cess. Ample cloak rooms were extern
porized in the offices ON the seventh
floor, and numerous dressing rooms
fitted up for the use of the ladies In at
tendance. The elegant parlors on the
eighth floor, together with the banquet
hall were used for reception and sitting
room purposes, the large drill hall being
set apart for the promenade concert
and ball.

successes, eliminated finally by the
erection of this new and magnificent
home. would require QuartO volume.
1t is enough to say that the incep-
ton of the undertaking of the erec-
ton of the Minneapolis Masonic
temple has been the theme for talk
among all the lodges of the Northwest,
and it is claimed by those who are quail
flied to know that it is the grandest edl-
fee, in design and detail, of its kind in
the entire West.
The building itself covers frontage
of lightweight feet on Hennepin ave-
nue. by 153 feet on Sixth street, and is
fit companion for the West hotel. which
stands on the next corner, fronting the
same way. 1t is eight stories in height,
of Ohio white sandstone, and ROman-
esque design. Aside from the numerous
lodge rooms, it contains 100 Offices, all of
them being finished in the most modern
style of finish and convenience. The
building is tiled and Wainscoated in all
its Railways with marble, and is as near
being absolutely fire-prOof as modern
building art can make it. The various
lodge rooms are elegant aud complete
in every detail, being entirely separated
by Skillful combination OF the archi-
tect'S art from the business offices. On
the second floor is the blue lodge room,
two stories III height 4lx4S feet square.
Some idea of the elegance of the rooms
appointments may be judged from the
elegance of the altar, which is OF solid
mahogany, costing $1,000. The carpets
are of the richest texture and design,
the furniture to match, the furnish
ings for this one room costing $4,000.
The commandery and chapter of the
Royal Arch MasOnS occupy the sixth
and seventh floors. The lodge room is
large and maSslvely decorated. The
great drill hall and ball room, In which
last nights festivities were held. takes
up nearly the entire eighth floor, the
hall covering space of S0X114 feet, the
ceiling being lofty, and supported by
high fretted iron arches. On the Hen
nepin avenue side are the parlors and
reception rooms, fitted up with the most
costly of carpets. draperies and uphol-
stery.
Every since it has become known that
Zion cOmmandery was to give ball to
commemorate its occupancy of the new
quarters, society has been in whirl OF
excitement. 1t was given out that
everything was to be on grand scale,
and the greatest of preparations have
been made by society in general to get
ready for the event. Nor was the fame
of the affair confined to Minneapolis
alone. from Winnipeg, Omaha, Chi
cago and hundreds of other points, came
letters advising the committee many
sir knights would be in attendance
from the cities named, and long before
the date drew near. it was found that
the hospitality of the commandery
would be taxed to the utmost. The
various committees made every effort,
however, and as result the best of ac
commodations were provided.

AS early as $50 o'clock the carriages
began to arrive at the door, the steady
line arriving so continuously that it
seemed as if the guests would never
stop coming, and the two elevators
were kept busy carrying up the people.
Had it not been for the bountiful pro-
visions made for the accommodation OF
the people in the way OF reception
rooms, there would have been crush.
but the whole capacity OF the seventh
and eighth floors being. utilized, there
was no serious discomfort during the
early part OF the evening, but as the
steady string of arrivals kept on III
creasing the crowd, by $50 O'Clock it
was found impossible to accommodate
them in the dressing rooms, and new
ones had to be improvised.
The uniforms of the Sir Knights were
conspicuous in the ball room, where
they formed nearly half of the male at
tendance. When the guests arrivedEat
the seventh floor they were ushered
into the dressing rooms, where they
were quickly taken care Of. They
were then taken to the reception room
where the following committee awaited
them: Sir r. G. Evans. chairman; Sir
r. B. langdon, Sir Hector Baxter. Sir
F. F. Davis. Sir w. K. Morrison. Sir C.,

From the reception rooms the guests
passed out of the lower end into the
mammoth drill hall, where they en-
gagged III social time until Danz's or
chestra began the grand march, when
the hall seemed filled as if by magic by
a triple row of promenaderS. The
musical programme was one of the
features of the evening, and was favora-
bly, commented upon by the guests in
attendance. After promenading each

Promptly at $50 the first number on
the dance programme was given, and
the floor committee was busy entertain
ing the guests and making them feel
perfectly at home. This committee had
been well chosen, and its efforts were
successful, as under its dire elton every
thing passed off as smoothly as the most
eXacting could desire.
This committee, upon which the most
arduous labors of the evening had been
placed, was composed of the following

Directly after the dancing began the
large crowd was not so noticeable as it
was more equally divided between the
ball and reception rooms. The banquet
hall on the seventh floor was also
thrown open at 1890 o'clock, and gave
still more room. The plan for serving
refreshments was happy one, the early
opening making it possible to serve all,
and plenty of time to spare.
1t was beautiful sight to watch the
dancers from the balcony, and it was a
favorite resort during the entire even
ing. Seventy-fve sets took part in the
quadrilles at one time, and as the call
came to ''balance. swing," the kaleid-

WHAT THEY CAN GET.
The Coopers Have Gone Back to
Work to Strike no More.

The COopers Have Gone Back to
Work to Strike no More.
Yesterday afternoon, for the first
time since March %, all of the cOopers
were at work. About 200 coopers were
present at the meeting in Labor Temple
in the morning. Attempts at holding
meetings at the Hennepin and North
Star shops were made, but they were
failures. Even the cooperative men,
who have all along shown the boldest
front, were discouraged yesterday. AT
the meeting most OF the discussion was
on future organization. When adjourn
ment was taken at 10o'clock it was with
the understanding that all the men
might as well go back to work, and they
did so. Everything connected with the
question of wages was again put in the
hands of the committee, and these men,
who have certainly done all that could
be done for the cooperS, again took up
their wearisome and thankless task. The
committee were determined to win yet,
and all the afternoon they were busy
visiting the millers and attempting to
secure signatures to the new contract.
They had the power to tie up every shop
in the city before night if unsuccessful,
but it is probable that no more calling
out will be done. 1t is the general i'm
preston among the leading coopers that
If the men fail to receive their price,
they will go back for what they can get.
The contract which the millerS will
be requested to sign will give the men
z, 10 and IA cents. An attempt will be
made to get the millers to agree to pay
50 cents for barrels. but if they refuse
compromise on "a cents will be ar
ranged. The committee started out in
the afternoon determined to settle
everything before night and be able to
report TO the men in the evening
at Labor Temple. When the evening
assembly was called to order it was
found that the committee had been I'M
able to finish its work. They will prob
ably, however. have finished by this aft
ernoon. They are sanguine of success,
and believe that the millers will all
agree to pay So cents. Anyhow, the
strike is over, for the present at least.

rem.
Hans P. Peterson thinks that the city
of Minneapolis owes him $1,000 and he
has begun an action in the district
court to secure it. The alleged debt
was contracted by Hans driving upon
pile of stones, which, he alleges, were
carelessly and negligently left in the
street, and being thrown out upon his
head and shoulders. He says that he
was badly bruised and lost his left eye.
Judge Lochren yesterday filed two
decisions. in the suit brought by Sarah
E. Cleveland against Hillary Archer
and in, the counter action begun by
Archer. He finds for Mrs. Cleveland in
both cases. She sued to prevent Archer
from crossing her lot, they owning adj
jacent lots in North Minneapolis, and
Archer's being so situated that it was
great convenience for him to cross the
Cleveland land, to cross which he
claimed to have right by virtue of a
contract with the original owner. He
sued to have Mrs. Cleveland enjoined
from interfering with his rights to cross
and was beaten, both as defendant and
plaintiff.

handsomely decorated asylum OF Zion

for 200 guests. The elegant drill hall
was sight worthy of chapter from
one of Hans Anderson's fairy tales.
Countless rows of incandescent lights
cleaned from the iron arches overhead,
and variegated clusters about the walls
shed their soft beams across the inn
mense room. At one end, high over
head, rose the gallery, in the center cif-
Gle of which Danz's orchestra was
seated, the soft strains of the
music sounding doubly beautiful
in the large room. Back OF the
orchestra in the ample gallery hun
dred OF more chairs were placed, giving
ample opportunity for those to watch
the brilliant throng beneath, Oh listen to
the stirring music, who did not care Ito
mingle in the throng. All about the
walls were hung countless Silken BAH
ners of various communicates, their
glossy folds gently waving, moved by
the bursts of music or the ruStllng OF
the costly garments of the ladies. ~
From every point Of vantage the dark
green leaves of palms and branches OF
tropic plants waved gracefully, their
sober hues contrasting with the brill

subtle odors filled the whole air. The
costuming was something magnificent.

John Longs Friend Summoned to

When G. E. Brame several days ago

and attempted to secure knockout"
during the examination of Brame be-
fore a referee, he neither secured a

ually stopped the proceedings at law

since that time, it seems, refused to

make the disclosure regarding
property which he has been ordered to
do. 1t may result seriously for him.
For several days papers have been

served, will require the attendance of Mi.
Brame in court to show cause why he
should not be punished for contempt OF

Attempt of Man Who Objects TO

fenced to the reformatOry a few days
ago for stealing a ton of bolts from the
