ON THE QUIET.

Col Tom Lowry is in Europe, but he keeps a
pretty close watch upon what is going on in
this section. Recently the colonel wrote q
letter to friend in this city, i'll which he
made the statement that by Oct not horse
car would be running in st. PaHl. By this the
colonel means to have all the surface car
lines converted into cable ana electric mo-
tors.
well-known physician stated recently
that he had six scarlet fever patients in one
square on East Fifth street. He attributed
the prevalency of the disease in that quarter
TO rag shop close at hand and the filthy
condition of the back yards.
Which suggests that while ST. Paul has the
reputation of being one of the cleanest cities
in the country, she is in reality pretty dirty
one. Strangers coming into the city see only
the carefully swept pavements and walks,
and not the unkempt alleys. Some of the
back alleys are in positively filthy condi.
ton. Boxes and piles of deeaying vegetable
matter. boxes and barrels of swill and rub
bish of all sorts are scattered back of build
ings with handsome facades. Some of the
back yards of the business territory (say
within the limits of the river and Eighth
street and Wabasha and Broadway, not to
Ioarticularize too closely should receiye i'm
mediate attention from those whose duty it
Is to look after such matters.

QUIET BY CONTRAST.
The Teachers Have Departed
The Convention Aftermath.

The Teachers Have Departed
The Convention Aftermath.
The streets of the city had deserted
look yesterday after the cOngeSted ap-
pearance they presented during the
days of the educational meeting. Sew
eral thousand teachers left the city
Friday, and the early morning trains
were crowded, extra cars being put Oh
by several roads. The members of the
local executive committee are delighted
with the success attending the arrange
ments made for the entertainment of
visitors. Sowell had every contingency,
been provided against that. so far as
entertainment was concerned, upwards
of 1900 more teachers could have been
accommodated. The visitors express
general satisfaction. The only ''kick'
heard has come from citizens who,
after preparing to entertain teachers.
had mad none assigned them. While
the committee regret that any dISa p
polntment should have been caused in
this respect, they could not obyiate the
nou-assignment of teachers to many
citizens. 1t was obvious that as many
promises as possible should be secured
from citizens willing to throw open
their houses to teachers, and that it was
possible many would directive guests,
There was no partiality shown in the
assignment of places. Teachers were
directed to places as they stood OH the
committees list. AS already stated,
the expenditure of the local committee
is $4,000. Ali the money has been sub
fcribed. in fact there will likely be a
slight balance to the good. Secretary
Sherin is deserving of mention for the
systematic manner in which he has
handled the detailed work. He has
demonstrated to marked degree his
fitness for the office. Mr.. Sherln re-
ceived excellent backing from D. d.
Merrill. chairman of the executive COM
mittee, and George III. Hazard, chair
man of the transportation committee.
Both these gentlemen voluntarily gave
their time and labor to the success OF
the meeting.
While the major body of teachers
have departed, some to their homes,
others on the hundred and one eXcur-
Sions provided by the railroads, there
are still considerable nun Der in the
city, enjoying the various points of in
terest. These, however, will depart to-
day.
The officials of the association lie ave
On the evening trains. President Cau-
field was busy all yesterday in the ex-
ecutive office of the association, Hotel
Ryan. A meeting of the board of di-
rectors was held during the day, at
at which the newly elected president.
W. r. Garrett. was requested to appoint
a committee. the purpose of which will
be to arrange for an international edu-
cationaI exhibit at the worlds fair in
Chicago in 1898. An international meet
ing is also projected for that year.
The little trouble which originated
out of the election of President Garrett
has been quietly settled. The disturb
ing element decided, rather than dis
rupt the association or i'll any way dam
age its influence. to let the matter drop.
The officials of the association were de-
lighted at the amicable settlement Of
his difficulty.

mated yesterday, by the terms of which
Walter p. Dean, who has successfully
managed the house since its opening.
assumes the interest in the theater Of
Harris, BrItton & Dean, of Baltimore,
the amount paid for this controlling in
terest i'll the property being $4,000. Mr..
BrIttOn, of the retiring firm, arrived in
st. Paul from Baltimore yesterday, and
signed the transfer last evening, Mr..
Dean assuming control of the house at
once. The sale is the result of nego-
tiations which have been pending since
last January, at which time Mr.. Dean
was offered the property on precisely
the same terms as those he now ac-
cepts. The phenomenally successful
run during the summer season
probably did much to influence
him in making the offer for the property
which has resulted in his being placed
in possession. The sale was made SUBJ
ject to the dates already made, and the
Wilbur Opera company will remain the
attraction until September. Mr.. Dean
is well known in theatrical circles as a
live, energetic and successful manager.
He has been in the employ of the Harris
company since 1888 in the capacity of
manager of one or another OF their
theaterS, and since coming to st. Paul
has demonstrated his ability as manager
of the Harris theater here by transform
ing losing into paying concern.
Mr.. Britton, in conversation with a
GLOBE reporter yesterday, stated that
the sale had been pending for some,
months, and that the entire interest of
his company had been sold to Mir. Dean
for the above-stated figures. The Harris
theater in Minneapolis, he said, was not
for sale. Being asked whether the sale
of this theater indicated that Harris,
Britton & Dean would permanently
withdraw from the st. Paul theatrical
field, Mr.. Britton replied that such was
the case. There was no truth in the
rumor that the Harris company would
erect a new theater here. He
thought that with the completion OF
the theaterS now in course of erection,
the town would have all the places of
amusement it could support. and that to
build another would be simply over
loading.
Mr.. Dean, in speaking of his pur-
chase, said that without doubt the
house could be more successfully oper-
ated from ST. Paul than from dis
tance, and added that he proposed to
give st. Paul theater-goers the best at
fractions on the road at popular prices
of admission. The theater will undergo
considerable alteration at the close OF
the present season. Several more
boxes are to be added. and the interior
of the house will be decorated in
unique style. A new drop curtain
has been ordered from Chicago, and a
| lot of new scenery to be used in staging
the attractions to follow the summer
opera season. Mr.. Dean states that
no change will be made in the force OF
employees so far as known at present.
A contract is now being negotiated
with Prof. Danny for repetition OF the
series Of winter concerts next season.
| st. Paul theater goers may congratu-
| late themselves that the property has
| fallen into the hands of a st. Paul man,
and one SO eminently capable of secur-
| ing to them the best attractions, as the
popular ex-manager of the Harris.

ItLiyes in Wax.

A good many people in st. Paul will
remember the wonderful two-headed
baby. All st. Paul went to see it when
it was OH exhibition at the museum
nearly year ago now. 1t was pro-
neunced by doctors the most wonderful
human curiosity since the famous
SiameSe twins.
The two-headed baby is dead. 1t died
at Baltimore some time last winter.
But before the marvellous little creature
was buried, for the benefit of science,
an accurate death mask was taken of
the little creatures two heads, and from
these death masks and other data that
were secured at the time, an accurate
representation of the little creature has
been preserved. just as in life, almost
seeming to breathe, is the wax figure
that will be presented at the museum.
Many. people who never saw this little
human marvel. little Hazel-ZaZel Jones.
Will now be able to see an absolutely
perfect likeness of her in wax. Two
rip-roaring funny stage shows have
been secured for the theaters.

HENRIETTAS.

We haven't had time to
speak about Black Silk
Warp Henrietta Cloths
lately. While this may
not be considered the sea-
son of the year to sell black
goods, it's a good time to
buy them; that is, if you
buy them here, as we are
now conducting our special
midsummer sale.
.'Our" Black Silk Warp
Henriettas are different
from any sold in this city.
That's why we call them
ours. They are made spe-
cialIy for the best retail
trade in the United States,
of pure silk and finest long
fiber Australian WOOL
which greatly adds to the
wearing qualities.
While there are Henri
ettas that may look as well
and are as well finished as
ours, we know that there
are none that will wear
like them.

No New Trial in the Barteau Case
Hard. Cold State ments.

Hard, Cold State ments.
Judge Kelly has again found bed rock
in the noted case of Annice &. Barteau
against William L.. Barteau, Mary Bar
teau and Josiah Fairchild. He filed an
order yesterday refusing the motion for
a new trial. In a memorandum the
court presents the points on which the
motion was based and uses some terse
language to indicate his reasons for re-
fusing to grant the motion. 1t was
claimed that no wrongful conspiracy.
has been proven and that Annice q.
Barteau received $4,000, which was an
excellent sale for her interest; that this
sale was conclusive; that the evidence
did not show that any of the Mary
Bailey property was paid for out of the
plaintiffs money; that the divorce pro-
ceedings were not properly before the
court for discussion; and that, as to
FairchiId, the action should be d-S7
missed.
Judge Kelly, in disposing of these
several propositions, says: "Conspir-
acies are formed in secret. Persons
who confederate to do wrong seldom
proclaim their intentions from the
hOusetop. The evidence of the conSpir-
not necessary to prove that they aetu-
ally agreed in terms to have the design
and to pursue it by common means. 1t
is sufficient to prove that they pur-
sued by their acts the same object.
A lew of the circumstances which led
to the conclusion as to the conspiracy
are stated to be the divorce between
Barteau and his first wife, and the sub
sequent intermarriage with Mary
Bailey. Before the divorce Barteau
lived under the same roof with Mary
Bailey, and made investments in her
name. She left her business entirely
in his hands and subject to his control.
The belief that Mary Bailey had no
money of her own. the correspondence
with and treatment of the plaintiff by
William l.. Barteau and other reasons
are given by the court.
The memorandum OF the Judge closes
with the words: ''As to the defendant,
Fairchild. he has gotten off exceedingly
easy, and has no right to complain"
