TO THE HIGHEST COURT. :.
Judge Cooley Called Beyond
Earthly Tribunals.

Judge De Witt Clinton Cooley. resi-
dent of st. Paul since 1851, and an able
lawyer, died at his home in this city
yesterday, aged sixty-six years. Judge
Cooley has had career in this section
of the country which marks him as one
of its most energetic pioneers.
Shortly after his arrival in ST. Paul he
was made town attorney. There was
no city then, but Judge Cooley became
city attorney when the town attained
that dignity. He was also elected at
torney for Ramsey county, and held
both offices simultaneously. Judge
Cooley is known as the originator and
promoter of the third house of repre-
sentatives of this state. He was sole
commissioner to draft and revise the
first ordinances ever adopted in st. Paul,
and was also the first pension agent OF
the state. He was known as master
of sarcasm,a brilliant wit and racontuer
and fine writer. His death will be
regretted by all the old settlers who
knew him in the past.

NOT GUILTY YET.

A Proposition to Suspend the Alb
stractor-Commis Work.
1t was suggested at yesterdays meet
ing of the board of county commission
ers that Abstract Clerk Murnane should
be suspended from Office pending the
indictment for malfeasance in Office.
County Attorney O'Brien thought such
a course advisable. Attorney Durment.
of the firm OF LaWler & Durment, asked
that such conrse be not pursued as it
would probably prejudice the case Of
Mr.. Murnane when it went to trial.
Action upon the matter of suspension
was postponed until the next meeting.
Messrs. Mitsch and Lavalle favored i'm
mediate action on the proposition.
Two delegates from White Bear ap-
peared before the board. One of these
favored opening a road around the
southern shore of the lake, whilst others
opposed the proposed change in the
road. Action on the proposition was
deferred. Clocks were ordered for the
offices of judge of probate and county
attorney. The telephone wires were
ordered removed from the county jail
and placed in the county treasurer's
office. The county attorney was in
structed to draft bills for the
following purposes: To attach School
District No. Sc to District No. %;
giving the commissioners authority to
widen Rice street, to make it 100 feet,
from the city limits to the county
line: to legalize the expenditure of the
$1,000 to cyclone sufferers; to establish
a county road around Bald Eagle lake,
and to systematic all matters pertain
ing to the abstract office.
Action upon the question of granting
certain franchises to the Wage Farmers
Cooperative Home association to con-
struct railway line along Rice street
to the county limits was continued.
The abstract clerks report for Janu-
AIRY was filed.

AGAINST THE SILVER BILL.
The Chamber Goes on Record on
Two Important Questions.

The Chamber Goes on Record on
Two Important Questions.
The chamber of commerce yesterday
made very rapid descent from the sub
lime to the ridiculous. One moment it
was discussing national finance and the
next wrangling over dead issue in the
Sixth ward. The mercantile committee
sprang both issues. The first was Sc
ries of resolutions denouncing the free
coinage bill as "a most dangerous men-
ace to the business interests of the coun-
try" and calling upon our congressman
and senators to vote against it. There
was some little discussion, and amotion
to table was lost. DR.. Day and 81. P.
Hall both argued for the restriction of
silver to its proper place, but the cham
Der passed the resolutions.
The matter of using the West side
levee for manufacturing purposes came
up, and H. S. Fairchild was enabled to
crate upon the possibilities of the levee
and navigation, but the matter was in
definitely postponed. There was little
further discussion, including the en-
plOyers' liability act now pending, but
no other conclusions were reached. Not
once i'll the session was there an effort
to set forth how the city ought to be
governed.

cemetery and its purchase by the city
for park purposes; also giving the city
power to disinter and remove the bodies,
and establish park.
A manifest opposition was displayed
by several members of the delegation to
this measure.
Representative Bell said such a bill
would stab the hearts of the people and
would cause widespread horror. If it
was necessary for public health to close
the cemetery, why, he would vote for
such measure, but not for one calling
for desecration of the dead.
Gen. Sanborn said that in the history
of the country no such steps had ever
taken place as the removal of the dead
from cemetery, and, as to the acquir-
ing the property, he thought it would
take an enormous All cunt of money.
Senator Stevens moved to appoint
committee to confer with the trustees of
the cemetery in order to find out how
much space was vacant, and if they had
secured grounds for burial purposes.
This motion was carried by vote of s
to-3, the chairman appointing Senators
Sanborn, Stevens and Representative
Walsh as a committee. The delegation
then adjourned subject t. the call of the
cllairmain.

no PDEAsE THE PUBLIC.

The latest play of Charles ii. Hoyt.
entitled a .tTexas Steer, (which opened
last evening at the metropolitan opera
house, was witnessed by, an audience
which occupied not only every seat in
the house, but encroached upon the
aisles and Hobbies. The satire of Mi.
Hoyt upon a certain phase of American
life and politics has enabled him to
place before the public characters when
are not impossible, but on the contrary
are but Slight exaggeratlons OF IRE.
The plot of the play depicts the
struggles of wealthy Texan to secure
a seat i'm the national congress. ana cir
culate in the best society in Washing
ton. The many laughable situations
ran be well imagined, in which not only
the seeker for political honorS is IN
voIved. but which are participated IN
by his daughter, true type OF the
Texan frontier girl. The very names
selected by Mr.. Hoyt for his characters
tell a story of their owners, MeSsrS.
Yell, Brag and Blow being the cognoo-
mems given to three roaring politl-
clans of the far Southwestern country:
From the time the play opened until IL
closed the vast audience was kepG IN
one continual roar of laughter, not only
fromthe funny lines and situations OF
the author, but chiefly from thelr ln n Ter
pretation by the clever members OF the
compauv. While the honOrS OF the play
fell to Tim Murphy, who played
Brander. the cattle king politician. and
10 Flora Walsh, who depicts the unSo-
phisticated Texan girl, the various
members of the company contributed
by their individual efforts to the gen.
eral success.
Probably no Russian exile ever had
more narrow escapes from arrest IMAM
Stepniak. On one occasion, soon after
the murder of Gen. MeZentZof, in st.
PETERSBURG, he sought refuge with
wealthy Russian lady, who employed
him as a servant, not knowing his lden-
tity. He was unknown to the police
at that time, and his mistress asked him
to accompany her one day to the Petro-
povalsk fortress, where she wished 10
see one of the government otheerS.
Stepniak was carrying bundle. Ihey
walked boldly into the prison yard,
and, while the lady passed inside, step
MAX was hidden TO remain ON the out
side. There were three guards present,
any one of whom could have
received an immense reward 1or
the arrest of Stepniak had they
known that the man beside them was
the man the government police were
diligently searching for. The lady mn
lShed her interview With the Ofhcer,ahd,
as she came out, she mOtloned TO Ntep-
MAX to follow. He in no way betrayed
anxiety over his position, and his cool
ness probably saved him from instant
arrest, as any show of fear would have
excited suspicion.

high when jury assesses them $4,000

the cases in which Judge Kelly wisely
prohibited the public from being adj
mitted to hear the testimony. On the
trial Mrs. Wichert testified that she had
seen Stehr and his daughter Hedwig in
a compromising position, but the testl-
mony of a physician was addueed, which
precluded the idea of criminal inter
course between father and daughter.

MUSLIN
UNDERWEAR.
SPRING OF 1901.

SPRING OF 1891.
We quote below some spe-
cially attractive prices on
Muslin Underwear. In re-
gard to quality, we wish to
say that every garment was
made specially for us, and
positive instructions we're
given when the order was
placed that proper care and
attention be devoted to the
sewing of each individual
garment, be its cost much
or little.
The result is that not only
the finer garments, but also
the cheaper ones, are as we'll
made as they could be in
your own house under your
personal supervision. And
being made by the best
makers in the country, there
is every reason to believe
that in regard to fit they are
far ahead of garments made
by the best seamstresses.
Care is not necessarily
expensive; and while we
honestly believe the assort-
ment to be far superior, both
in quality and workmanship,
to the ordinary run of Mus
lin Underwear, we can safely
guarantee prices to be
THE LOWEST.
The sale will be conducted
in our Cloak Room, as quiet
and retired a corner as could
be wished for.

moderate capital is we'll illus
trated by the following instance
as related by the Silverton
Miner: "On the Ist of May
last the Ariadne mine was only
a prospect, with one dollar or
one million dollars, all depend
ent upon the vividness Of the
imagination. Since that date
the ore body has been struck
and it is now a mine, and ready
to back Mr.. Hes bond for
county treasurer. Next year
the mine will appear on the
tax list side by side with other
producing mines, and the
owner will not kick at fair
assessment" Mr.. Hes above
referred to has lately been the
editor and owner of the Silver
ton Miner. A dozen years
ago he was a compositor on
the Reveille-the first mining
paper published at Leadville
and afterwards for a time he
worked underground upon
some mining claims owned and
operated by the present editor
of the Mining Industry. We
wish him success in both his
political and mining ventures,
but suggest that he stick to the
latter
