Sweeping Water Board Changes
Clerks Fees-No German in
Grammar Schools.
At the meeting Of the Ramsey county
delegation, held last evening, the Phalen
creek matter was brought up and re-
considered. After good deal of dis =
cussion as to the advisability of the pro-
posed Improvement. an agreement was
finally reached that it was not good gov
ernment to increase the debts of the
city for the benefit of any particular
community, and resolution was
adopted, by the terms of which the coun-
ell is requested to abate the nuisance.
A resolution was drawn up and
adopted, pledging the delegation TO
take no action favorable to the issu-
ance of certificates of Indebtedness
against the city. The bill to change the
grade of Selly avenue for the purposes
no indorsement as it involves the eX-
penditure of a large sum of money.
City Clerk Prendergast appeared on his
own behalf to urge reconsideration of
the measure proposed to reduce the
fees of his office. He expected some
reduction, he said, but was unprepared
| for such a sweeping change as the
| difference between $4,000 and $1,000
year. lie thought he ought TO have
| 900 if required to turn over all fees.
| A motion to fix the clerks salary at
$1,000, and his allowance for clerk hire
at s., 600, was amended as to the latter
item, reducing the sum for clerk hire
| to S4,0 900, and in that the clerk is re-
quired to pay all fees into the city treas
ury, and the council to collect fees as
now provided by law, holding the clerk
responsible for their collection. The
amended motion was adopted.
Secretary Hart, of the state board Of
corrections and charities, explained a
trio of bills he wished to Introduce.
They dealt with the duties devolving
on the board of control, the manner Of
maintenance of pauperS and the leasing
of the poorhouse. The bills were re-
ferred to a committee of five to con-
slider.
Attention was called to a recon-
incubation by the chamber of COM
merce, and motion providing for the
prohibition by law of instruction in
foreign languages in all public schools
but the high school prevailed. The
vote was to 5.
A motion that the delegation go into
executive session was opposed by Ring
wald and Walsh. both of whom said that
there was nothing to be ashamed of in
the proceedings, and that they believed
in doing public business publicly. The
motion was lost. The water board was
next taken up, and handled roughly.
After discussion 1t was decided to re-
duce the number of water commission
ers to four, with salary of 500. The
presidents salary was reduced from
S1,SOO to $1,000, and the secretary's
salary placed at $500. The Offices of
attorney and engineer of the board were
devolve on the city officers holding
those positions. The fixing of the
superintendent's salary at $500 COM

Lieut.. Morgan. and that is his age.
Yes. he knows it himself. But ne
won't dIvulge the date upon which he
flashed into this brilliant world. OF
course everybody has the privilege of
guessing at 1t. The GLOBE guesSeS fifty
five Mr.. Morgan is native of Mont
gomery county, Pennsylvania, and came
to st. Paul in April, 1858. He is one of
the old settlers, sure enough. In 1862
he enlisted in Company q, Sixth Regl-
ment of Minnesota. and gallaDtly served
i'll both the civil and Indian wars. He
was one of Gen. Sibley'S braveSt fol-
lowers in the Indian war. Mr.. Morgan
first became a guardian of the law in
July. 1866. when he was appointed a
patrolman by Mayor John S.
Prince. His services as patrolman
were particularly efficient, and when
William Dawson was elected mayor OF
the city Policeman Morgan was made a
sergeant. 1t was Mayor O'Brien who
noted the excellent qualifications of
Sergeant Morgan and placed him in the
position of lieutenant at the Central
station. For the past five or six years
Lieut.. Morgan has had charge of the
Central station during the daytime.
Everybody knows that ne has always
been a splendid officer, and so it is
needless for the GLOBE to euiOgiZe him.
He is the trusted treasurer of the St.
Paul Policemen's Mutual Benefit asso-
citation.

May Llndon, young lady who has
been living with Special Officer Hilger's
family, at 500 Walnut street. has mys-
teri0usly disappeared. 1t is feared that
she has committed suicide. Miss Lin

about ten days ago to hide her shame
from her folks. and friends.
Mrs. Hilger. being Oh old friend
of the Lindons, accepted May
into her home, and expected to
keep her there to receive the care that
her condition demanded. But Mrs.
Hilger was taken suddenly i'll, and, in
consequence, thought it best to have
Miss LindOn removed to the city hos

down TO Dr.. Ancker's office, and made
provision for the entrance of the girl to
the hospital. But when he returned
home May was not there. and nothing
