ADJUSTMENTS.

Ida Van Cortland essayed that diff
cult role of Pauline, in Bulwer's classic
LADY of Lyons" at the Bijou last
evening. Much good has been said OF
her previous performances, and more
can be said of her Pauline. 1t is excel
lent in every particular. Nothing more
can be said. w. J. Buffers Claude Mel
nOtte is in every way equal to Miss Van
COrtland's Pauline. The support was
satisfactory.
To-day at 2:30 ladies' and children's
matinee will be given at the Bijou, and
the Lady of Lyons" will be presented
for the last time. Tonight and to-mOr-
row matinee Victor HugO's weird play,
'Lucretia BOrgia, y will receive its last
two presentations. Sunday evening the
Van Cortland engagement will end in a
production of the pleasing domestic
drama, "a Wife's Peril" Miss Van
Cortland Is said to be remarkably strong
in the leading role IN this play.

day for the stock company opening next
Monday evening, and large number

attainment of that for which one
has been long striving. All the world
looked bright to them. The vast au-
ditOrium in which they sat seemed the
universe, and there was not one in that
whole body of 101 who was afraid to go

brilliant sea of gay bonnets and ex-
pectant faces told them that their
friends expected much of them. and
there was not one among those 101
graduates of the high school but men,

again yesterday, but as several of the
essential witnesses were still missing,
Assistant City Attorney Dunn moved
for another continuance. Attorney

continuance of the case, stating that he
believed and thought that Levy was the
victim of a conspiracy, and was being
prosecuted through spite on the
part of the detectives who had
made the complaint against him.
Attorney Dunn stated that he had
seen nothing in the case so far to
warrant such an assertion as Mr.. Nye
had made, and urged that the matter be
continued until such time as Detectives

DIVORCE SUITS REIGN.
August Knopf, Matilda Chapel
and Lena Olsen Are the APP
plicants.

August Knopf, Matilda Chapel
and Lena Olsen Are the APP
plicants.
Three divorce suits were fled yester-
day in the county clerks Office. two of
which were of a decidedly sensational
nature. The prevailing ground of conf
plant, as in most cases, was cruel and
inhuman treatment.
August Knopf is the plaintiff in case
decidedly different from those usually
filed in the clerks Office. In his COM
plant he states that on Nov. 4. 1885 he
was united to Laura Parsons by pre-
tended marriage, and that they after
wards lived together as man and wife
until June, 1899. At thattime he learned
for the first time that his supposed wife
had husband living from whom she
had never been divorced. The fruit or
the pretended marriage to KnOpf was
one child, boy named Frank, at pres
ent three years of age.
knopt wants the court to declare the
marriage null and void, and that he may
have leave at future day to move for
the care and custody of the child when
he shall become more advanced in years
and when the plaintiff is able TO pro-
cure good home for him. as the de-
PENDANT, he says, is not fit person TO
have the care and custody OF the child.
Matilda Augusta Chapel wants the
bonds OF Matrimony existing between
herself and William b.. Chapel dis
solved. The parties were married at
Brainerd on Jan. %, 1884, and have two
children, both girls, five and three years
old. Shortly after their marriage they
removed to this city, where they have
since lived. In the complaint Mrs.
oh
On several occasions, she says, her huS-
band accused her of adultery, and called
her vile names, which be knew 10 be
false. On May Is, 1880, Chapel, 1t IS
alleged, brought prostitute TO their
house, and kept her despite the protests
OF his wife. A number of times he
locked himself in the bedroom with the
woman, and remained until after mid
night. He repeatedly beat. and abused
the plaintiff, causing her both physical
and mental suffering. The most serious
charge of all is that on Oct. % last
Chapel attempted TO commit an as
sault upon Amanda FRANKIE, a sister of
the plaintiff. All this is what the COM
paint states. Mrs. Chapel wants $50
for her attorneys fees. and So per week
pending the decision of the court.
Lena Olsen is another applicant for
divorce. She wants to be freed from an
incubus named Christian Olsen. For
twenty years. lacking six days, they
have lived together as man and wife,
but for the past few years Christian has
not been doing the proper thing by her,
according to the complaint. They were
married on June Is, 1871, at Christiana,
Norway. The age of the plaintiff is
given as thirty-eight years, and her Eus-
bands forty-three. Since 1888 Chris
tian, it is claimed, has been drunkard,
and has treated his wife in a cruel and
inhuman manner. Last September he
threatened to kill her, and put her out
of the house and into the cold. cold
world. They have four children, rang
ing in age from twelve to eighteen

Minneapolis and the country immedI-
ately south and east of Minneapolis for

anything or not the city attorney of
course does not know. Mr. Russell has
so written the man. 1t seems that the
matter has been referred to government
officials at Washington.

consider ways and means for securing
the Republic national convention for
Minneapolis met at the Union League
Yesterday afternoon. Mayor Winston
was there by invitation. A good deal
of talking was done. Contrary to ex-
pectation, the predominating sentiment
seemed to be against any at
tempt TO secure the convention.
Gov. PiIlsbury took the most pro-
the first place. that the convention
would be a good thing for Minneapolis.
Granting that Minneapolis could enter
tain the people who would come, the
presence of The convention would give
Minneapolis little prestige, perhaps,
but it wouldn't enhance the price of
real estate; it wouldn't enable a man to
sell corner lot; it wouldn't bring cap
ital to Minneapolis. Then, suppose the
city should not be able to entertain the
crowd. Minneapolis would be adyer-
tised but in an injurious fashion.

Pillsbury in whole or in part.
One thoaght Minneapolis couldn't

hotel facilities are not sufficient; an
other that Minneapolis wouldn't get it
anyhow The hotel matter is the big
gest stumbling block. Forty-four states
will be represented in the convention,
and each state will want headquarters,
not to speak of the twenty or more city
and factional delegations that want sep
arate meeting places. w. II. Eustis
was almost the only man who battled for
the convention idea. He said the
hotels, the business blocks and private
homes could be turned over to the con-
vention. The meeting resulted in the
appointment OF w. NJ. Ryan, Mayor
