AN ARTISTIC SUCCESS.

The Lineau-Reuter Concert At
tracts a large Audience.
The Lineau-Reuter concert given at
the Newmarket last evening was
notably successful event, both from an
artistic and financial point OF view. In
terest in the affair had been rendered
no less keen by the knowledge that the
artists were of the locality rather than
from afar, nor was the magniiicence OF
I4ineau'S perfect tenor calculated to
produce another feeling with his
audience than one of satisfaction that
st. Paul had produced an artist worthy
to rank with the best in the country,
and a violiniSt than which there are few
more worthy of fame, although their
fame be greater. The programme
opened with a quartette selection

firing quartette. Almost all 81.

beautiful compositions, and nothing can

''Faust." The Interpretation was per
feet in every sense of the word. Inc
same selection was given by NJ. MuSin
when the latter was in the city, and the
performance of last evening suffered
nothing by comparison with the
previous one. Mr.. Lineau's singing of
Scott, Welch' Dunkel Her," aria from
"Fidelio," won for him the most
sastinted and hearty applause, to which

encore number. The ballad by Miss
Miriam Williams, "ln the Chin

sung. The lady possesses voice

The Twin Cities in Direct Track

The weather map. based upon the p.

barometer is highest to eastward, over
the Middle states. There is low area
advancing from Montana, while another,
and much better defined one, is coming
up from the southwest; in fact,
it is well-defined storm area,
central near North Platte, Neb.,

twentY-four in both the easterly and
northerly ones. The Twin Cities and
adjoining country are "almost" in the
direct track of this storm. But little rain
was found in connection with it last
night, The prospects. however, are de-
cidedly favorable for rains over the
greater portion of this state, South Da-
kota and Wisconsin. as this low
moves up, and that will be to-day.

CARING FOR THE POOR.
Systems Adopted by Law for the
Distribution of Relief

Systems Adopted by Law for the
Distribution of Relief
SHOW shall we maintain our poor?"
is question that is troubling the au-
thorities of most of the organized coun-
ties of Minnesota more or less these
times. In the earlier history of the
state, when the farming" OF the poor
and unfortunates of the state was not
made regular business of, as it now
is, this question gave the county au-
thorities little trouble, as the aid of the
public was invoked rarely and only
when dire necessity demanded it. In
those days what's known as the county
SYSTEM of caring for the poor was in
augurated-that is, the county itself
through its board of commissioners took
charge of the entire matter and passed
upon all applications for aid within the
county.
This system worked all right in those
days when the different counties were
sparsely populated, but OF late de-
mand has sprung up, especially in the
more thickly settled counties of the
state, for what is known as the "town-
ship SYSTEM" This system, now in use
III many counties, provides that each
township, or other separate division OF
a county, shall provide for its own poor.
Under the law passed by the last legiS-
lature the county commissioners can
make change from one system to
another by. first, notifying the
board of corrections and charities,
which, after an investigation by its sec
rotary, II. Fl. Hart, Will pass upon the
application, and usually grant the re-
quest for the change.
Winona county is the latest one to
ask for change from the old county
system, and in a letter to Secretary
Hart, of the board of corrections and
charities, received yesterday, Auditor
A. E. Ramm. of that county. made re:
quest for change. Secretary Hart will
now make his investigation and report
to the board. This Investigation, which
is really, as it undoubtedly ought to be,
much of a red tape affair, will result in
a report favOring the change. and at the
next meeting OF the board of correc-
lions and charities the desired permis-
sion will be granted.
Both systems have their advocates,
and as Mr.. Cowie, Secretary Harts
clerk, put it yesterday: ''Those that
have township SYSTEM want the
county SYSTEM and those that have the
latter want the other one"

Suddenly Tightening his gripo the cap

CONVINCED THE sKEPTICs.
Wonderful! Manifestation by Paul
"A. johnson in the Psychology.

m OObAoOsh IN VIZ 81 OAhNAOhys
Paul Johnson, the newly developed
star in the psychological world, gave
wonderful manifestations of his proWess
as mind-reader yesterday afternoon at
the Ryan hotel. johnson is a young
man, unaffected in manner or deport-
ment, aud carries out his undertakings
successfully, sans the long hair and
weird style of dress apparently deemed
indispensable by the majority of OPP l.
ators i'll the mind-reading business. Adj
ditional interest is attached to his per-
formanees from the fact that he is the
son of Alexander E. johnson, the emf
grafton agent, and one OF the oldest and
most highly respected citizens of st.
Paul. He is youthful i'll appearance, OF
less than the average stature, with blue
eyes and light hair, which is worn cut
as closely as that Of the average mortal.
His demonstrations in slate writing and
other phenomena of the kind, per-
formed as they were yesterday-not
from the friendly vantage ground of
stage, but in an apartment, crowded
with curious half-belieyers in spiritual
ism-were invariably surprising and
occasionally absolutely startling in
their miraculouSness. The smallest of
pieces were hidden In impossible places
and at signal that he might proceed
were bounced upon by the blindfolded
professor with an alacrity simply Won
derful. The grand test was reached,
however, when committee composed
of six gentlemen-Ed Whitaker. Fred
Huebner, DR.. Abbott, George Lowell,
L. w. Walker and S. B. Keith-drove
in hack from the Ryan to the Office of

in the coat collar OF L. D. Bissell,
superintendent of the job department.
Returning to the hotel, the committee
presented itself to Johnson, who
selected as the best mediums
E. A. Whitaker and Fred Hueb-
ner. 1t took the professor some
| time to figure out the route, but when
| he did catch the inspiration it was with
startling SuddenneSs. He leaped from
| the chair in which he had been sitting,
| and dragging the two mediums after
him. each by hand, he sped down the
| marble staircase at such rate Of speed
as to endanger the necks of his compan-
| ions, as we'll as his own. The man was
! in perfect frenzy OF nervous excite
ment. Hts hands trembled like leaves
| in autumn, but he wandered not hairs
breadth from the proper course. With
! couple of frantic plungeS he reached
the box of the hack, dragging Huebner
| and Whitaker after him, almost, as it
seemed. by main strength; then seiz-
ING the lines he wheeled the
horses about and drove up Fifth
street as though the legions of hell were
in full pursuit of the cayalcade. 1t was

TIL EASTMAN INQUEST.
The Jury Fails to Exonerate
Officer Peterson.


The coroner's jury in the case of Neil
eastman, who was shot by Policeman
August Peterson OIL the morning of
April %, met yesterday at .OHalloran
& Murphy's. Oh Sixth street. The tes-
tlmony of the officer, who still bears the
marks OF his desperate encounter. was
taken, together with that of several
others. The evidence was substantially
the same as the story printed exclusive
" in the GLOBE on the morning OF the
occurrence. The evidence all in the
jury retired, and formulated a startling
verdict, and one which will, no doubt,
be revelation to the public. After
due elaboration, they decided that Cor
Eelius eastman came to his death by
shots fired from revolver in the hands
of Police Officer John August Peterson.
Thereupon they were discharged. The
case may be presented to the grand
jury. but it is quite likely that body
will exoperate the officer.
