water, which at this point is about four
feet deep. Convenient spring boards
are fastened to the~platfOrm SO that div
ing is made not only possible but at the
same time pleasure to the sunburned
lads who swim and sport around in the
water like so many ducks. 10 make
diving in deep water possible 1t Is pro-
posed to run q platform out into the
lake, but as yet this has not been done.
When the subject of public
bath house was first referred to
committee of the park board they
selected as a location the sandy beach
down near the ice houses. Here the
water gradually deepenS and the boys
could wade out from thirty to fifty
yards before getting over their heads.
But the objection to that site was that
the boys who would patronize the place
the most would have no way OF getting
there without walking a mile or more
of Superintendent Berry the present
location was finally agreed upon. 1t is
near the motor line and, as General
Manager Goodrich has promised to
make a cent fare for the bathers, they
will be able to reach it quickly from the
center of the city.
The estimated cost of the entire con-
Germ, including the building, bathing
suits and attendance for the season, is
estimated at $500, and the commission
ers feel satisfied that it is money well
expended. In fact many people who
do not own carriages, and until Judge
MahOney'S recent decision that man
had right to take his family over the
boulevard for pleasure drive in any
kind of wagon, Stocked upon the parA
nr1lV
evidence of the rich man taking every
thing to himself to the exclusion of his
poorer neighbor, are satisfied that the
bath should have been established long
ago. Other cities have public bath
houses, and they argue that there
is no good reason why Minneapolis
should not have system which
would compare favorably with any of
them. AS yet the one located at Lake
Calhoun is only an experiment. and
should it be well enough patrOnized to
warrant the outlay it is the intention of
the board to locate other houses similar
to the first one at some OF the other
lakes. From the number of lads who
are daily chased out of the water by the
police, it is generally supposed that the
public bath will become very popular
and supply a long-felt want. At least
that is the view Commissioner Board
man takes of it, and although it will be
necessary to have stringent rules for
sanitary and other reasons to protect the
bathers and the house from abuse, the
rules will not be at all obnoxious. No
more enthusiastic patrons are expected
than the amphibious youths who have a
supreme contempt for water in c0nnec-
ton with soap, but whose wild spirits
find vent in aquatic feats which make
the Little Lord Fauntleroys and
mammals darlings turn green with
envy. Supt. Berry says the bath will
probably be opened to-day for the first
time, and he expects it to prove one OF
the most popular features of the great
park system of Minneapolis.

The usual grist of divorces was on at

the minute they reach the sidewalk
seek protection under their parasols,
but think nothing about the horse that
has carried them from their home, per-
haps two miles away, and is allowed to
stand in the sun while they overhaul
the entire stock at some dry goods
counter or get a cooling ice in some
convenient confectionery.
Z But, while neglect is the general rule,
there are fortunately many exceptions.
and the different arrangements for keep
ing the equines comfortable and pro-
tecting ii EN- from the sun are many
and varied. The man who looks after
the comfort of his horse can be picked
out of crowd without much trouble.
Nine times out of ten he is the fellow
who who will grasp your hand, and,
while nearly wrenching your arm out
of joint, will eXclalm: Isn't this a
corker?'' and then he will mop his brow
and laugh so good-naturedly that you
haven't the heart to complain OF
his pump-handle work, and the
friendly grasp which has almost
crushed your fingers. One of these men
was on Bridge square last week. He

Jho1. u. OcEEt>N moved to
Minneapolis in the spring of 1881. He
was for three or four years in the en-
ploy of J. E. Merritt, real estate dealer,
at the same time taking an occasional
flyer himself in Minneapolis dirt. When
G. A. Pillsbury was elected mayor Col
Inns applied for position on the police
force, and was at once appointed, since
which time he has worn the uniform of
a police officer. Officer Collins has done
good service on some of the most i'm
portant beats in the city. For long
time he was in the vicinity of First ave-
nue. south and Third strickland later on
lower Washington avenue, where he
was stationed for three years. He is
considered one of the best officers on
the force. At present Officer Collins
lives with his mother at Fourteenth ave-
nue. south and Seventh street.

There's one kind of summer girl
who is mystery-the tough girl at the
lake. Where does she come from? You
never see her in the city, but you inva-
riably meet her on the excursion train.
She chews gum. has a bang that looks
like horses name, and her face could
stop a poker game. She is sallow-
skinned, flat-chested, with hands like
talons, and web feet. She always has a
'feller" with whom she is on terms OF
familiarity that smacks of the playful
ness of a pet bear. You never see her
in winter, or for that matter anywhere
but at the lake.

Recovered the Stakes.

The application against the estate of
Martin Murphy for $50, brought by
John Kearney, as assignee of claim
against the estate of Pat Boxer and
Stanley, sport from st. Paul, was de-
cided for the petitioner in the above
amount, This was queer case
and all because Martin was, prior to
his death, stakeholder in a dog fight
that took place last fall. The applica-
ton was brought originally by the two
dismissed because of the illegality of
the contracts, and the court could not
take cognizance of it.

NOTE AND COMMENT.

Doc S. S. Kilyington-Thanks, don't
believe I'll run for mayor. I'd hate to
be Democratic mayor with Republic
can council. They'd abolish the office
of dog catcher so wouldn't have even
one appointment. They'd have the
chairman of the ways and means COM
mittee sign the bonds. They'd delegate
the veto power to the president of
the council. They'd have the legis-
member of the board of police commits
sioners; and. lastly, they'd turn the city
hall over to the charge of the committee
on public grounds and buildings and
wouldn't let me into the city hall. There
are few things that would be done
with Democratic mayor by Repub-
lican council, and he'd get the blame if
anything went wrong.
