Last night the Hess Grand Opera

tion left little room for cavil. 1t is

Still Looking for Jays.

Apparently some of the gentlemen
who live their wits have made UP
their minds that Minneapolis affords a
rich field for them. The festive burglar
comes to town armed with a can of
powder, and other implements OF his
business. and blows open safes. The
man with the brass brick and tramp
dressed up as an Indian succeeds in
selling about forty pounds of brass to
respected citizen for $4,000 in good
coin of the realm. But the latest
to attempt to ply his trade and earn
few dollars is the ''green goods man.
Although the scheme has been exposed
time and again, one of these gentlemen,
who gives his name as n. G. Burgess, of
Matawan, N. j., has addressed the
usual confidential letter to j. NJ. Howes,
of 2947 Hennepin avenue, Offering to
sell him the goods at greatly reduced
rates. In fact $3.50 will purchase $4,000
in the goods; $500 is good for $500;
$3.50 will buy $4,000. and $1,000 in good
money will yield $4,000. Mr.. Howes.
however, did not care to deal in coun-
terfeit money and turned the letter over
to the police. This is said to be the
fourth of its kind received in Minneap-
oils within few weeks.

Fred Edwards, Greenleaf's clerk, was
then sworn. He identified Hastings as
the ''brodger'' who had come to the
store with Schomberg to have the filings
tested, and said, when asked where he
had seen the defendant before, that he
had seen him on the street, around the
Elite saloon, at 30S Nicollet, and at the
Hamline races last year, where Hast
lngs, he said, was ''capping" for shell
game. There the prosecution rested.
Samuel Cassidy, telegraph operator at
the Columbia pool room, where Hast
lngs is bookmaker, swore that Hast
ings was at the pool room during the
whole of the afternoon of July Is, and
could not have been at the Windsor, as
alleged. A half-dozen other witnesses
were sworn, who testified to practically
the same thing. Hastings was the last
witness, and he denied everything to
which Schomberg and Edwards had
sworn, particularly asseverating that he
had never been ''capper'' for a shell
game. Judge Mahoney held that the
evidence was insufficient to warrant him
in binding Hastings over to the grand
jury, and the action was dismissed.

THE NEW COURT HOUSE.
The Controversy Over Material
Those Belgian Bids.

InOS6 belgian Bus.
At the meeting of the court house and
city hall commission, at which the bids
were opened. the meeting asked that
taxpayers generally give their opinion
as to the kind of stone preferable for the
new building. The cost of the granite
is understood to be in the neighborhood
of from to per cent above the cost of
other stone. In view of this fact, while
the commission seems to favor granite,
the members do not like to decide until
they hear from citizens in regard to the
matter. AS result, many of the public
and business men of the city are ex-
pressing their views, and the prevailing
opinion seems to be that the granite
should be used, Notwithstanding it's
greater cost.
The majority argue that a court
house is building intended to stand
for almost all time, and the most solid
of material should be used in it's con-
struction. The sandstones are objection
able on account of the diScolOration
that follows, as they absorb all the smoke
SCOT and dirt in the atmosphere, and in
a few months look dingy and old, while
the granite always remains the same
as when first erected. 1t is very prob
able that the granite will be finally de-
cided upon.
In regard to the bids on the iron work
Mr.. De Laittre is of the opininon that
the contracts for the wrought iron will
be given to the Belgian firm, as the bid
in his opinion will be considerable
amount under that of the American bid
ders. He says there is plenty of time
get the bids here, as the iron work will
not be needed for year at least. 1t is
prevailing impression that it would be
loss to the community to have the iron
contract go out of the country, but Mr..
De Laittre says that the local dealers
only make a small commission, as the
iron all comes from the Carnegie works
at Pittsburg. Should the contracts be
given to the Belgian firm, local labor
would do the work just the same.
Should the contract. be given to the
foreign firm, it is possible that the local
bidders may enter protest if their bids
are returned. Some of them state that
they believe that the commission will
DO the right thing by them, as they
have paid out some money ON the pla MS,
and put in the certified checks with the
bids. 1t will probably be some time be-
fore the result will be known.

Thomas Lowry returned to Minneap-
oils yesterday, after a three-months'
trip to Europe, and at once came out
flat-footed for Merriam. In speaking OF
the action of the Hennepin county dele
CATION he said: I'm my opinion it is an
outrage. Gov. Merriam has given the
state an admirable administration, and
should be given the unqualified
support of every delegate to the
state convention from this county.

broglio beyond what have read IN the

Reputation of Mr.. Merriam'S claims by
Hennepin county are matter OF record.
Before these census troubles arose Mer-
RAM was favorite in this county: he had
no opposition and his renOminatlcn
was conceded. Then came the denou..
ment-of the merits or dement's OF
which / know nothing-but as a result
of that fight the Hennepin delegation
declare that they will not support Mer-

the opposition to him is not based upon
the census troubles. but if such was the
case why is it that there was no Opposl-
ton to him until after that unfortunate

Wood q Morse's Work in Clear
!. ing Out the Burned Warehouse.
Building Inspector Hazen has made
some remarks concerning the manner
in which Wood s. Morse, the contractors,
have been removing the debris from the
ruined Security warehouse, and the
latter are accordingly worked up over
the matter. In contradiction to what
the building inspector has said, they say
that they were working to remove
Rebels body, and that they worked with
that purpose solely in view. They had
nothing to do with the removal of the
Irvine, and paid no attention to that.
Furthermore, they state that, had Mr..
Hazen thought a moment, he would have
seen that the removal of the walls
would have interfered with and delayed
the prosecution of the search for the
body. However correct their position
may be, warrant for the arrest of
Wood & Morse for failure to remove the
walls has been sworn out.

Liut. Sinsheimef Is Not very
Popular With Company B.
About forty members of Company B.
First regiment, NJ. N. g., met in the
armory last evening and signed re-
quest addressed to Second Lieutenant
w. S. Sinsheimer asking for his resig-
nation. According to the stories told
by the soldier boys the lieutenant has
been flying rather high OF late. ABOUT
a year ago he was elected second lieu
tenant. Lieut.. Morgan was also elected
at the same time, and the first business
of the two new officers was to procurS
their unifor ms. Sinsheimer told nj
brother officer that he could get re
duction on the uniforms, and through
him Lieut.. Morgan ordered his sult,and
paid Sinsheimer for it. Some time aft
erwards Morgan was surprised at re-
ceiying bill for it. When the COM
pany went to Lake City Sinsheimer put
up at hotel. and forgot to pay his
board bill when he left. The proprietor
had an attachment issued for SID
sheimer's uniform. and this was served
upon the janitor of the arm0ry and the
company officers. Then his fellow
members became indignant. and at the
meeting last evening requested him TO
resign. He is out of town at present,
and the request was sent to him by
mail. Should he refuse to resign he
will probable be court martlaled on the
charge of conduct unbecoming an officer

THE AMERICAN FoREsTERs
Grand Anniversary Exercises to
Be Held in Minneapolis.

On the 14th of August occurs the first
anniversary of the independence from
the English order of the Ancient Order
of Foresters. Preparations are being
made for grand time in MINI eapolis
on that date The local order will have
a grand parade, which will march over
the principal streets of the city until it
disbands at Bridge square, where the
concourse will be addressed by E.. M.
johnson. president of the city council,
and E. Shumpk, high chief ranger of
the grand order of the state. In the
evening addresses will be delivered by
William H. Eustis, and DR.. E. B. Per
kins, of Excelsior. On the day follow
ing the order will give grand picnic at
Excelsior.
The Order of Foresters in Minneap-
oils has had very rapid growth during
the year, and the record since the es-
adjustment on Sept. %, 1885, shows
some very interesting figures. At that
time there were but twenty members,

HE DON'T WANT TO PAY.
The Dog Catcher Objects to a
Judgment Against Him.

Judgment Against Him.
Another instance of the dog catcher's
superior rights to those with which the
man with an unlicensed dog is intrust-
ed viii soon be aired in the court. The
suit grows out of judgment recently
rendered in Justice Grimes court, in
which Clement Lovely, the city's can
inc collector, is made the Judgment
debtor. Lewis G. Gjertorn is made
nominal defendant. He has been acting
as attorney for the Judgment creditor.
Edward l.. Larson is made defendant
in this suit brought by Lovely to set
aside the recent judgment rendered
against him on the grounds of improper
service. Lovely says the officer simply
threw it into his wagon, while by the
Justice court practice the officer serving
a summons has to read the same to the
defendant. 1t will be remembered that
Larson issued writ of replevin for thes
purpose of procuring his dog, which.
was captured by Lovely some time ago,
and, as Larson claims, was taken from
the latter's yard. When the officer
sought to recover the dog it could not,
be found within the precincts of the dog
catcher's prison house, but had met
death upon the guillotine the day be-
fore. Larson claims the dog was worth
a hundred dollars; and yet it is rumored
that the dog could be bought for s25
few days prior to his untimely disap-
Dedrdnce, :

Trouble in Plummer Post.

Affairs in the Plummer Post Woman's
Relief corps do not appear to be IN a
very pleasant condition for the men,
beers, if the complaint of Mrs. Abbie f..
Bryant is to go Tor everything she says.
According to her statement there Is a
mutual admiration society that strives
to run things its own way in the corps,
and that efforts are made to keep amply
qualified members out of the order be-
cause they are personally disliked by
the president and treasurer, Of the
order. Mrs. Bryant. it seems, has been
unjustly treated, and friends who have
sympathized with her have been forced
out of the order, the whole thing the
result of personal feeling. 1t is also
stated that quarrels are frequent at the
meetings. and that. very unladylike
conduct ensues, a result OF the
personal spites engendered in the corps.
Up to the present time only Mrs: Bry-
snt's side of the story has been heard,
and it is probable that the other side
will be heard from later.

ABOUT BRIDGES.
How the Different Contemplated
CROSSINGS Are PROGRESSING.


The plans for the Washington avenue
bridge, according to Engineer Capellon,
are complete, and advertisements for
bids will soon be published. The bridge
will be as wide as the avenue, 104 feet,
and "a feet long, under which there will
be room for six tracks. The engineers
are now surveying for the Seventh
street bridge over the tracks. There
are twenty-one tracks to be crossed, and
it is not known yetjust what the dimen-
sions of the bridge will be. Camp &
Walker, it is said. have offered the
railroads $4,000 if the bridge is COM
pleted by-Jan. l. and the work will be
accordingly rushed. The survey from
one bank to another is 1900 feet. The
Laurel avenue bridge. which has been
before the public for a couple ofmonths
now, is not yet certainty. 1t is said.
however, that the people interested
have raised SD, 200 of the $4,000 bonus.
The Washington avenue bridge over the
river is now ready for the street rail
way tracks, which have been completed
OH both sides to the bridge.

THE VETERAN FIRE LADIES.
They Are to Picnic at Lake Min
netOnka.


Veteran Hose, Company No. 1 was
called to meet at the engine house cor
nor of Sixth avenue south and Third
street last evening. but when the hour
arrived 1t was found that some of the
most noteworthy members were absent,
some of them not being in the city, and
the business for which the meeting was
called was laid over until the next meet
ing, which will be held at the same
place Monday evening, Aug. 4.
The comrades of the great
old company who were present
passed pleasant time reving old asso-
Citations before they dispersed. 1t is
understood that the main purpose of
the meeting is to arrange for the picnic
to be held at Lake Minnetonka. 1t is
the intention of the company to make
this regular 0ld-fashioned affair, of
the country order. 1.-The boys" are to
wear their red shirts, and indulge in all
the pastimes peculiar to holiday fetes
of fire laddies of primitive city life. A
large number of Invitations are to be
issued, and a programme of games ar
ranged to interest the guests of the
company. The affair will undoubtedly
be one of the most successful of its kind
that has been held during the season.
The date will probably be fixed at the
next meeting.

matter of grading the stockyards road,
the bid for which had been referred to
them. E. T. Comstock & Co. presented
the only bid. They offer to do the work
for rs cents per yard and l cent for
overhauling, which would make the
total cost about 26 cents per yard. 1t
was decided that the city engineer and

could do the work cheaper than that.

laborers whom they employed hustle
for their earnings. Larson's bill does
not amount to but SLIT, but it probably
means to him as much as the sl1, 300

Judge Hooker says that he believes the
whole thing to be a scheme to rob poor
people, and he says in addition that
this is only one of many that occur daily,

Doyou ask, ''lWhere can do this and
have my money absolutely safe ?" Let
us give you some facts. The Lamoille
County Savings Bank and Trust Co. of
Hyde Park is an institution run on the
following principles =
1st. Not dollar is loaned without
the personal knowledge of some one of
the Board of Directors that the loan is
safe beyond question.
ID. 1t is run as home institution
Every dollar is loaned in Lamoille and
adjacent counties. and every worthy en-
terprise in the vicinity of the towns
whence the deposits of the Bank come,
is fostered and encouraged in preference
to other investments, so far as it can be
done with absolute safety.
Sd. Under no circumstances is dol
lar invested in any western mortgage or
other Out-of-the-State security. We
might perhaps pay our depositors one
half of one per cent. per annum more
interest by mourning little additional
risk, if no loss should come, but we
believe there is to-day ''long felt
want" in Vermont for a savings institu-
ton which will loan it's funds at home.
1t is needed that Vermont may not
become impoverished. 1t is needed for
the building up and fostering home in
stitutions. Vermont towns will not
boom without money any more than
towns beyond the Mississippi and in
Alabama. 1t is needed for the greater
safety of the savings of widows and or
phans as well as of all those who look
rather to the absolute security of the
principal than to high rates of interest.
With no disparagement to our neighbors
who prefer to occupy western fields we
offer to the depOsiting public the La
noble County Savings Bank and Trust
Co. as an institution organized to meet
the demand for a strictly home Investment
Savings Bank. That such demand ex-
lists, and that the people are ready to be-
stow their confidence. and encourage
ment upon such an institution, is evil
denced by the fact that the aggregate of
the small deposits alone in this bank
not counting any in excess of $1,000
were at the end of the first six months
of it's business, $57, 19600, a record
without parallel, we believe, in the
history of Vermont Savings Banks.
4th. Under no circumstances does
this Bank take over 6per cent. Itwould
not. knowingly, make an investment
which would pay over per cent. The
safest class of loans and securities will
command money at per cent. The
Bank pays the State tax of six-tenths
of per cent. on deposits in lieu of all
taxes to the depositors. 1t must then be
evident that per cent. per annum is all
that the Bank can SAFELY PAY. This
rate it will pay. 1t is guaranteed and
rests on no contingency. Interest will
be compounded semi-annually if not
withdrawn.
