They Will Be Exposition Attrac-f
tions-H. Jay Smith in New,
York.
Manager Regain. of the exposition, has
in his office book full of press notices
concerning Yank-Hoe, the Japanese
juggler and illusionist, and his Cir
cassian assistant, Omene. All of these
extracts, which are from the leading
newspapers of the East, speak in the
highest terms of.the skill of the Jap and
of the marvellous performances of him
self and assistant. One of his tricks
is to split an apple, resting on
the throat of the fair Omene,
with sword, he bringing the weapon
down with all his strength, but without
harming the girl. Another trick is to
produce miniature photographs of play
ing cards from the inside of watch
cases, the watches being first thoroughly
examined by other persons. from whose
hands they never pass until after they
open them and find the pictures. These
two performers will appear at the ex-
position twice daily for three weeks.
II. Jay Smith is now in New York, he
having arrived there on Monday. MIR.
Regain has received telegram from
him announcing his arrival with a
splendid collection, and expects letter
with fuller particulars to-day.

church, there being a large attendance,
and many from outside the city.

service, led by G. E. Wingate.
An address upon "The Teachers

proved of great interest, and was much
enjoyed by the congregation. F. II.

Harper's System.'' The convention
will hold three sessions to-day, morn
ing, afternoon and evening, at which in
teresting talks will be delivered.

school, and of course lose interest. The
rally day will be established on some

QUIETLY GATHERED IN.
A "Sporting" Resort on Eighth
Street Raided by the Police.

"A "SpOrtlnS Resort Oh LiSAoA
Street Raided by the Police.
Another "quiet resort for the sport
lively inclined male population OF Min
neapolis has been raided. This house
is known as ''No. g." and it is on Eighth
street, couple of doors north Of Hen
nepin. 1t was pulled yesterday morh-
ing just before daylight by Sergeants
Kirkham and VOlk, and two women
and the same number OF men were
carried safely to the lookup per
patrol wagon. When arralgned III
court the proprietress of the place, who
gave the name of Lena Dean, was fined
$50. She would have gone to the work
house for sixty days without the alter
native of fine, but that she promised
to close up and move out OF town. Inc
other woman said her name was JENNIE
Williams, and the two men. who are
well-known attaches OF two leading
hotels, gave the somewhat unrOmantlc
names of Ole Oleson aud John JonSon.
The three latter paid fines OF $40 each.
The house, situated as 1t was in
highly respectable neighborhOod, has
been under police surveillance for some
time, in consequence of repeated pro-
tests against it that had been lodged
with the chief OF police by residents
of that locality. 1t was no uncommon
thing for several hacks to stand in front
of the house all night, and the piano
was kept in full blast, frequently until
time for the sun to appear. The occu-
pants had been notified to move out
quietly, but they did not choose to COM
ply, so the place was raided.
A few nights ago couple of officers
were detailed to watch the place. They
did so, and saw enough to make con-
viction sure. Yesterday morning mes
senger was sent to the door with the
statement that he bore note
from "Fred"-who, by the way,
is well-known Minneapolitan,
who with his wife, moves
in good society. Erred" it seems, was
the secret password to the house; hence
the proprietress came to the door, the
officers Immediately forced their way
inside, and the occupants gave them
selves up quietly, without trying to run
away. all pleading guilty when ar
raigned. There are several more houses
of Shady reputation in the residence
quarter, upon which the eyes OF the po-
lice are fixed. 4

SHOULD THE CITY DO 1T?
Repairs to Streets Torn Up by the
Street Car Lines.

Street Car Lines.
q The numerous. changes that have been
made in the Minneapolis street car
lines, necessary to the building of new
roads, and the tearing up of the tracks
indifferent points,has left thesstreets in
many parts of the city in bad condi-
ton. 1t was naturally supposed that
the street car company would go over
the ground and place the pavement in
its proper condition. In many places
the company did so, but even where
the tracks have been laid the blocks
had been so poorly replaced that ruts
and holes, in which mud accumulated,
were left, making the streets in many
places uncomfortable to drive over.
Still there was no great complaint, as
it was supposed that as soon as the COM
pany could find time to spare men from
its other work it would go over the
ground again and repair the work.
Finally gangs of men appeared, and the
work began. the blocks being taken up
and replaced with new quantity of
sand, in many cases new blocks having
to be used. A, large number OF
men were employed in this work
yesterday, and out of curiosity GLOBE
reporter asked of one of the men for
whom they were working, and re-
ceived the reply that they belonged to
the city force. Not satisfied with this,
the reporter visited another point
where work was in progress, and upon
inquiry received the same answer.
The question arises as to whether it
is the duty of the street car company
to repair the streets after each change
made in its tracks, or whether the city
force, which is supposed to be paid
ers, is to do the work that has been
made necessary through the action of
the car company. Nearly all of the
stone blocks laid on the outside edge of
the down town tracks are in bad shape,
and should the city do the work, the
sum expended would amount to con-
siderable. 1t is simply question as to
who should do the work.

FOR THE SANGERFEsT.
A Guarantee Fund of $4,000 to
Be Raised.

A large and enthusiastic meeting of
Norwegian citizens was held in Nor
mania hall last evening to discuss the
ways and means of entertaining the
delegates to the national conven-
ton of Norwegian societies, which
meets in Minneapolis on July
4th, and to provide tor the holding of
the great national sangerfeSt in 1891. at
which over 1000 Norwegian singers will
be present. A. G. Haugen presided at
the meeting, and there were representa-
tives present from all of the different
Norwegian societies. The committee
appointed at previous meeting to open
a correspondence with the different del
egateS to the convention reported that
a majority of the societies west of New
York eXpresSeda preference for holding
the national sangerfest in Minneapolis
provided the local societies would guar
antee that it should nOJresult in finan-
cial loss, which the visiting societies
would be called upon to make good. 1t
was stated that the different local sing
ing societies had already raised by sub
scription a fund amounting to some
thing near $1,000 to defray the expenses
of the Sangerfest. After considerable
discussion it was resolved to offer the
convention as all induoement to bring
the sangerfest to Minneapolis a
guarantee fund of $4,000, A. G. Haugen
pledging himself personally to raise
s., 900 of the amount, and Nicholas
Grevstad, on behalf of the Times Pub
fishing company, agreeing to subscribe
to like amount, and three of the sing
ing societies taking $1,000 each. The
balance of the guarantee fund will be
raised among the merchants of Mime
apolis. 1t is claimed that there is but
little risk in subscribing to this fund, as
the receipts from the sangerfeSt are eX-
pected to leave a handsome balance
after all of the expenses have been paid.
At the meeting last evening ii was
stated that while New York would in
all probability make strong fight to
get the sangerfest, Minneapolis
could depend upon all of the cities of
the West for assistance, and the only
thing which would prevent her from
obtaining this attraction would be the
want of the guarantee, but as the gen
tlemen having the matter in charge are
well known there is no doubt that the
amount will be forthcoming. In the
letters read by President Haugen last

NOTE AND COMMENT.

OF all the teorrrs dreaded now
The worst one is the census man,
Who asks a set of questions that
You have to answer, if you can.
Some thirty of them are set down,
And each one must be answered straight
Or else you're lodged in durance vile
Until you recapitulate
For instance, when he asks of you
A dozen that are sure to vex,
He'll ask you. with suspicious eye,
TO let him know what is your sex.
Also of how many babes
You chance to be mother of.
Then if you ever learned to read.
And who you are the brother OF.
If you a homeless pauper are,
Or convict i'll pri on cell.
Ana if you own your dwelling place.,
Then if you're white or black as well.
The most essential things it seems
That they have quite forgot to get,
Is whether you have come TO be
A victim of the cigarette.
Or if you Tutti-frutti chew,
And nave acquired an inert jaw.
Likewise that dear relative called,
Oh fearful name, mother-in-law.
