ed a check system for the government
of employees who handle the money re-
ceived from the hiring of the boats
owned by the board. A bell punch
might do just as well, but then the bell
might not ring often enough.
Duke has earned his title of "the only
Duke" He is the only pitcher in the
team who can't pitch.
Kilvington is making mistake. After
Haney sets him out as d preyarlcator,
he goes on fishing trip to-day and lays
himself open to the universal criticism
that Haney told the truth. 1t is cur
rently believed that Ananias used to
go fishing.
If all the energy which will be wasted
In rowing boats, tramping around lakes
and telling 'what we did last year" by
the am; teur fishermen to-day was
turned in the direction of saving cord
wood, there might not be as many head
aches, and the recording angel would
have considerably less to do.
Tillie Ford was buried yesterday. Her
fife and death might furnish theme
for a sensational sermon; but, accord
Ing to the stories told by her former as
sociates, she had one redeeming trait in
her character. That was charity. AS
charity is said to cover multitude OF
sins Tillie should be forgiven.
Now that she is dead let the record OF
her life be buried with her.
Chicken by the ton, bread by the car
load and deicacies by the thousand
were given away at the Guaranty Loan
reception last night to persons who
needed them not at all, and there are
hundreds of children in the city who
seldom enjoy square meal.
Perhaps the young man who Swal-
lowed a dose of laudanum with the in
tentiOn of committing suicide last even
ing will take some interest in life II ne
Is committed to an insane asylum. A
woman that can be frightened intomar-
rying a man to keep him from killing
himself is hardly of the kind most men
would choose for wife.
The crOakers who kicked when Chief
Stetson, of the fire department, asked
the council for money with which to
buy tarpaulins to be used in protecting
the contents of buildings from water
during a fire are the ones who would IN
sist that the insurance companies re-
duce their rates, because Minneapolis
has had plenty of rain during the past
week.
1t was a loving party that went to
Sioux City last night The members of
the conquering Minneapolis team, the
defeated Indians, and last but not least,
the suffering and abused Mr.. Blogg. 1t
Improbable that each faction eyes the
other with chances of suspicion, and it
is probable that there will be music in
the air when the game is OIL to-day. 1t
is PR blble that the same Mr.. Blogg
will be the chief attraction and the I'M
doubted lion of the day. If there is the
ghost OF a show, of course Sioux City
will win it, for people are aware by this
time that he is home umpire OF the
first water. 1t is in order to hope that
Mr.. BIogg's health will last through the
day.
The one point of attraction last even
ing was the Guaranty Loan building,
and vast crowds blocked the street in
every direction at all the avenues OF
approach 1t is probable that the peo-
pie who stood for hours in the imne
date vicinity are suffering from stiff
necks from looking up at the dizzy
height.
The number of manufactures that
are said to be coming to locate in Mill
neapohs in the near future, would lead
the average reader to suppose that the
Flour City was enjoying boom of no
small proportions in the manufacturing
line. The latest acquisition is said to
be an English company that manufac-
lures some sort of table delicacies. If
they all be true, the more the merrier.
The warm weather is bringing out the
summer suits of the feminine gender,
and the airy fairy appearance on Nicol-
let avenue yesterday was sight to be-
hold. 1t was as much as mans life
was worth to be caught in the crowd,
which was distinctly feminine. Of
course the sOul-destroying paraSol was
getting in its deadly work, and there is
many a sore eye and ruined ''stovepipe"
to bear witness to the fact that yeSter-
day was warm Saturday.
The ladies' matinee at the Harris will
probably be followed by children's
matinee, at which adults will not be toll
Grated. This will give the management
another opportunity for introducing an
extra performance during the week. but
then the children would enjoy it.
Some little complaint is being made
by many people over the fact that the
Harris theater is about to give a Sunday
evening performance. They say that
1t will undoubtedly lower the standard
of the patronage of the house, and be in
the end bad plan. The future will tell
whether or not they are correct.
1t is rather aggravating on warm
evening to sit in close auditorium and
listen to a muscular lady cry down mint
iuleps and sherry cobblers while she
enlarges upon the beauties of ice water
as a beverage and illustrates her words
by copious draught5 from dripping
pitcher.
The job printers almost to a man will
oppose the proposition to strike at the
present time for an increase in
wages. The printers are generally the
most Ievel-headed workingmen in the
world, but when the demand for the in
crease was made they were carried
away by the so-called leaders," who
have nothing at stake and who yearn
for the excitement accompanying a
strike.
To-day at Holy Rosary.
At the Dominican Church of the
Roly Rosary to-day there will be I'M
usually interesting services. In the
1890 there will be solemn high mass
In honor of the days feast of the Holy
Trinity. At this mass Fl. Splinter
