MINNEAPOLIS.
NOTE AND COMMENT.

A glanceat any one of the new cleo
trio cars on Washington avenue yester-
day would be enough to convince one
that there must be an immense increase
in the number of cars run, at least on
Sunday. before the public can be any
where near accommodated. All day,
each car came by with the very steps
crowded, and hundreds of passengers
were Left on the corners as the motor
went by. 1t may be that many of them
were riding just Tor sport, but if such
were not the case, it would be policy to
run at least every three minutes Sun
hays. Minneapolis comes very near
being metropolitan city, and even if
each car should not be crowded, the
time between them should be immensely
shortened.

place in the pennant race. Summary
action is necessary to prove that Mill

1t was noticeable fact that only about
10 per cent OF the crowd that went over
TO st. Paul to the advertised kiilen-
Sheehy boxing match came home again
Oil the same evening. 1t is thought that
the quality OF st. Paul's intoXicants,
added TO its adaptabliity to Sunday
uses, had much to DO with many wait

Tomorrow evening Sir Harry Gil
m ore, at present of Chicago, and Lord
Joseph McHaie will enJr the lists at
the Twin City Athletic club for the pur-
pose of winning fame and ducatS before
the mobiles and merchants OF Minneap-
oils. The question is, what will be the
various excuses given by the spectators
for their absence from home, and how
Will each account for his condition on
the return thereto.
Since the price of reserved seats for
the Strauss concerts was announced the
number of Minneapolis people who
'don't care cent tor music" has per-
ceptibly increased.
The fur collar was again seen upon
the streets of Minneapolis last evening,
and the straw hat was conspicuous by
its absence. These are the FIRST signs OF
an approaching cold wave, and the con-

usual India summer. The negliga silk
sash, thank heaven. is out OF season.
Maj. VIII E. Steele yesterday had a
sign painter busy all day preparing a
placard, which he will wear on his mar
tial breast. 1t reads:
My Name Is Not Strauss. l don't
Know Anything About Music. Keep
AWay!!"
Herr Eduard Strauss insists that he
must have absolute silence at the EXPO
sltion while he is giving his numbers.
IL remains to be seen whether OF not
this can be accomplished with SO many
women about; and ii is also matter
for local curiosity whether he would be

wants to make all the noise himself.
The Minneapolis ball team will again
commence its struggles for third place
this afternoon. 1t looks rather as if
these taIl-end teams were rather hard
hearted in WorSting the poor cripples,
when, by so doing, they have nothing to
gam, but it is the old idea-hit them
when they are down. 1t does seem
rather like adding insult to jury, how
ever.
There will be debate lasting through

than to allow others TO say that either

will be that each will want to take the
affirmative.

days to push his name to the front.
