in store for this company it is
hoped that its coming will after
this be regular summer event.
The engagement has created un-
bounded enthusiasm among must
clans and lovers of harmony through
out the city, as the productions will be
of the highest order unsteady by
artists of the first rank and at
price of admission that will easily bring
it within the reach of all classes. The
prices to be carged are rs, so and rs
cents and the matinees 25 cents, with a
few seats in the parquette at 80 cents.
Such performances music lovers have
heretofore been in the habit of pay
ing S1.50 for, but as all the artists are
on summer salary and the management
obtained the guarantee subscription
fund is the only manner that has made
the engagement of so big mus
ical organization possible at those
prices. Among the old and well
established artists with the COM

person than a daughter of the we'll

Gently taken her up as the COM
ing prima donna of this country.
She has a beautiful mezZo- soprano
voice of great compass and range, being
from low f to ID in alt, and of a delicious
quality. Added to this is wonderful
memory, easily learning long parts, be-
sides very pretty face and command
ing figure. She made her debut, but
a short time ago as ''Urbain," in
1.-The Huguenots," and her success was
accorded instantaneous. Of course, as
yet it would not be supposed that she
ranks with Madam Guthrie, Darlington.
Mouri OF Claire, other female members of
the organization, but those artists have
unanimously spoken fatteringly of her
future. The tickets for single perform

from tomorrow, but then the price
will be rs cents. With fifteen famous
principals. and forty people in the
chorus, direct from the Metropolitan
and French Opera company, OF New
Orleans, besides an enlarged Or
chestra, the event will undoubtedly be
the biggest of its kind ever attempted
in the Northwest at the prices.

The major portion of high society mi
grated to the lakes early in the week to
escape the fury of Old Sol and his CO.
horts, that sent hot blasts through Min
neapolis in whitening force. Such &C
ton on the part of the people who are
in the habit of making things lively for
Minneapolis society people during the
social season, had direct tendency to
make local affairs few and far between,
and transferred all social gayety to the
cooler lands lying about the waters OF
Minnetonka. On the swell streets
blinds are down in every other house,
and the houses are closed until the cool
weather drives the occupants away from
the water and brings them back again
to the comforts of home and blazing
fireplace. Even sturdy Cupid seems Co
have been affected with the heat and
laid up for time to recuperate.
-
Fourth of July came with its usual
buster and noise, and people of high
and low degree turned out EN- masse to
do honor to the day, no matter II the
exertion did cost them one Of the hard
est days work that they have had for
wear, in fact, since the Fourth of year
ago. Picnics were held by the score,
and little impromptu picnics and fam
lily gatherings were held on shady banks
and in sequestered groves which were
Ravens of rest after the noise and dust
of the crowded trains. Many stayed
until the evening to watch the fireworks,
of which there was large variety set
off. In the city there were the usual
colored blazes, mounting rockets and
deafening noise, enough to make one
believe that few people if any were abb
sent from the city.
The grand moonlight excursion to
Lake Minnetonka given by the letter
carriers of Minneapolis was one of the
largest affairs of the week, happening
last Monday night. The weather was a
trif1e cool, but the noon was full and
made up for any lack of conviyial
liquids that might have been felt. The
attendance was immense. and the band
played popular airs to crowded deck
as the steamer piled its way through
the moonlit waters. There was jolly
time, and the guests of Uncle Sans
boys have no reason to regret The even
ing they spent with the excursion party.

married May Is, and lived together up
to the date of O'Malley's arrest.
Mrs. O'Malley on her examination
testified that she had been watching
her husband for some time, so as to make
sure of his faithlessness; but Simon
says that he never intended to keep the
matter of his associations with other
women a secret from her. The officers
testified to finding Simon in the predlca-
ment charged; divorce was granted,
and alimony fixed at $1,000.
Mrs. Erin MI. Holley has endured a
most wretched life since her marriage
to her husband, George l.. Holley. Yes
terday she sought Judicial PERMISSION
for a separation. She told the court
how she had at first lived as Dakota
school teacher. then as maid in New
York and finally as common servant
in Minneapolis. She was granted a
separation by the court, as that is all
She cried for. She was married when
! but sixteen years of age at Warren,
Mimi. She reviewed many instances in
which she had been the subject of her
husbands cruel abuses, and on several
occasions she said her husband had
threatened to shoot her, and had already
nearly choked her to death. A sister

COMING EVENTS.

The State Federation of Labor meets
at Labor headquarters to-day at 2
D. m. Delegates will be present from
the five trade and labor assemblies Of
the state, from the K. of H., State Eight
Hour leag ue, railroad unions, and the
farmers alliance will be represented by
their state executive committee. II
each branch of industry sends all
the delegates to which it is emit
tied, the total number will be sixty
five. Counting the farmers alli-
ance and all trade organizations,
the organic ed strength of Minnesota
is &C, 900 in round numbers, so that each
delegate to the federation represents
an average of about 1900 people. Each
delegate comes with instructions in re-
gard to political action, basis of future
representation and similar matters of
importance There is some doubt as to
what action, if any, will be taken pOlit-
ically. From interviews with prOmi-
nent delegates it seems likely that
platform of demands will be formulated
and submitted to the different parties
for incorporation in their platforms, and
that outside of appointing committee
to present these demands, the fedora
ton will take no further political ac-
ton. The federation will become per-
manent organization, and pursue most
of Its work along industrial and educa-
tional lines; the political action being
merely incidental. Among the new
features are mentioned an exchange of
ssfalr'' goods. by means of labels, be-
tween the farmers and working people;
also a lecture bureau and general dis
tribution of industrial literature.
The girl walters are about to organize
a union and obtain uniform scale of

hotels usually pay slightly higher rate:

as men and have the merit of being
more dependable. The men walters re-

HENNEPIN PETITIONS.
The Protest is the Larger---Mat-
ters of Interest About Parks.

The Protest is the Larger---Mat-
tiers of Interest About Parks.
Yesterday afternoon the park board
met in regular session and transacted
considerable important business. A
communication from residents near
Powderhorn park was read as showing
the sentiment in favor of the PROPOSE
ton to increase the size of the park.
Two petitions in relation to the build
ing of an electric street car line on
Hennepin avenue boulevard were re-
ceived. The one asking for the car line
bore forty-four signatures of prop
erty owners, while on the other
hand 1875 property owners protested
against the proposition to vulgarize the
boulevard. The matter was referred to
a special committee.
Prof. FL. w. S. Cleveland read an able
paper on the adaptability Of the river
banks for boulevard and park purposes,
especially that portion of the banks
down near Minnehaha. He also paid
some attention to the enlargement Of
the park at Minnehaha. Commissioners
Lorlng. Boardman, Hangar. Northrop
and Ridgeway were appointed COM
mittee to look up the matter and inquire
as to what would be the cost of acquir-
ing the river banks and turning them
into parks. Supt. Berry was requested
to INQUIRE into the cost of widening
Lyndale boulevard.
Commissioner Boardman'S persist
ency in advocating the cause of Mime
apoIiS boys was rewarded. Supt. Berry
was instructed to build temporary
bath house at Lake Calhoun aud to hire
man to take care of it and to provide
bathing suits so that the little fellows
can go in swimming without being sub
ject to arrest. Commissioner Allen re-
ported that he had found man who
would pay $500 for the boards lot at
Cedar avenue and Twenty-fourth stteet
and the attorney was ordered to secure
permission for the sale.
Commissioner Haugan brought up the
matter of the forty lots ON the east side
of the river. opposite Riverside park,
which the board owns. A special COM
mittee was ordered to inquire as to
what the cost would be for fixing those
lots up for park purposes, and also TO
look after the removal of the parties
who have squatted on the land.
The enlargement of Central park
came up. Commissioner Downs, from
the committee on designation of
lCpOl JCti vi uilC ctoflodOlli0y VI
adding the available land in Places adj
dition to the park. The committee was
instructed TO report at the next meeting
on the cost of the proposed enlarge
ment. Parkhurst's patent combined
curb and gutter was adopted for use On
| Lyndale boulevard.
Two weeks ago Commissioners
| Downs, Cole and Ingenhutt were ap-
pointed a committee to call OH General
Manager Goodrich, of the street rail
way company, and urge the adoption OF
a five-cent fare to the lakes and to Min
nehaha. The committee reported that
| the fare 10 these resorts would, here
after, be but five cents. Next Wednes-
day at 80 the park commissioners will
meet and visit the North Minneapolis
parks. In putting the motion President
Loring especially commended the work
of Prof. Cleveland on Prospect park.

girls are, however, only following the
example of their sisters in larger cite S.
In the East all divisions OF labor where
women are employed are thoroughly
organized, and they obtain many con-
cessions otherwise impo sible. The
girls in st. Paul complain that, IN addi-
ton to low wages, they are charged for
every broken dish, and system of fines
imposed which seriously detracts from
the wages. Then girls are required to
do extra work which men would not do.
They think it would be more fair to
have an agreement with employers as
to what work is required and the wages
to be paid.

local and state, were never, in the his
tory of Minnesota, so badly mixed
For variety of reasons there is dis
position to depart from party lines.
The workingmen of Minneapolis are
we'll organized and have received some
lessons in the past two years which
tends to make them independent of
party lines. 1t is not at all certain that
they will affiliate with the farmers
movement, but they are certainly figur-
ing on holding the balance of power and
using it to defeat whom they choose.
The state eight-hour league meets
