THE SWEDISH BROTHERS.
The Fair Auspiciously Opened at
Their Hall Last Evening.

The Fair AusDiciousIy Opened at
Their Hall Last Evening.
The Swedish Brothers fair opened
uspiciously last evening. The hall at
Eighth avenue and Fourth street was
beautifully decorated with blue and
yellow streamers that were hung around
the gallery. The floral decorations were
profuse. There was multitude of
costly, useful and fancy articles. There
were sacks of flour from Washburn's,
PillSbury's and Crocker's mills; shoes,
albums. furniture, clothing, toys,
silverware, etc. An oid-fashioned,
green-sodded Swedish home, in
ternally and externally perfect, is pro-
nounced to be the most correct
old-world scene exhibited in Minneapo-
lis for years. Everything is imported,
spinning wheel, wool and garments;
even Lars Erickson, its occupant. An
drew Anderson, chairman of the COM
mittee, aidea by Otto Peterson. has
done good work in arranging the fair,
which will last Until midnight Oct. "a.
Refreshments are served at all times in
the basement, which is beautifully fes-
TONED and decorated, under the au-
spices of the Swenson Bros. Last night
Maj. Henderson delivered an address
for the city on account of Mayor Win

paid 2115 per cent of the liabilities. The
firm held valuable stumpage contract
with the Duluth road. and the Security

for continuance OF business by the in

that 100 cents on the dollar have been
paid and the firm is released. The

Greatly in Doubt.

The former employer of Fred. B.
Matthews, George B. Kirkbride, is not
hilariously sanguine that the detectives
will do anything to dissipate the clouds
of mystery that veil his disappearance.
They cheerfulIy say they are going to.
He was Mr.. Kirkbride's cashier. The
missing mans brother is keeping up
the search and maybe can afford to pay
the detectives to experiment. If"
said Mr.. Kirkbride, 1.-The detectives (?)
had started right they certainly should
have found some Of Mr.. Matthews
clothing or a clue before this" Mr..
Kirkbride, in his earnestness. has prob
ably overlooked the vital fact that if
Matthews body were found and identi-
fled, the detectives would be out of a
job and lose the pay therefor.

THE CREMAroRY PROBLEM.
Aid. Ingenhutt Makes Himself
Scarce Since His Donation.

Aid. Ingenhutt is hunting. He is
the pursued. He is hunting for room to
dodge those who seek to have him
locate at once the crematory site lie SO
generously donated to the city. Since
then he has been out of sight and the
city out of ''site." Telegraph, tele-
scope, telephone cannot find, see or
hear him or from him. DR.. Kelly says
he is not In favor of, but is emphatieally
opposed to the construction of crema-
tory upon temporary site, but insists
upon permanently. 1t will be cheaper
eventually, even if it costs little
more to commence with. Many crema-
tories have been tried and failed to
stand a continued test. The best one,
according to DR.. Kelly. is the Engle
cremator, now in use in Des Moines,
Jacksonville. Fla; San Antonio, Tex;
Coney Island, Butte, Mont, and other
places. 1t has given satisfaction for
years, and he says the fear of odor in
the neIghborhood where it will be
located is foolishness. 1t DESTROYS its
own odor. The location when selected
must combine permanency with ac-
feasibility.

THE LOG SURVEY.
The Surveyor Generals Report for

The Surveyor Generals Report for
the Month of September.
The surveyor generals report of the
scale of logs for September shows
total of 521.535 logs turned out. scaling
81, S03, $40 feet, little less than in Sep
TENDER, 1890, when the record was
broken. Operations were interrupted
this year, however, by the fair and the
harvest festival. The total scale up to
September 81 this year is 294. 152, $50
feet, or 93.000,0G0 feet more than last
year and over 75,000,000 feet more than
1855, which was the best previous rec
ord. IL the weather is favorable the
final scale of this year will bring it up
to round 100. 1000. 900 feet more than the
total was last year. There is now no
question but that the total cut of the
Minneapolis mills will be in excess of
$50, 000,000 feet.

IN woMAN's CLOTHES.
An Old Authors Novel Researches
Into Trouble.

London Globe.
An old gentleman, who gave what he
termed the com de guerre of Luke Lin
ner, and who said that he lived in
Ormond terrace. Albert road, Regents
Park. was charged before Mr.. Newton, at
Marlborough street, yesterday, with be-
ing in a public thoroughfare dressed in
female attire. His appearance i'll the
dock was grotesgue. He wore q blue
serge skirt fringed with red, a black
Jersey bodice, which by it's appear
ances suggested the presence of
corsetS and padding, fashion,
able light-colored cape--wlth Medici
collar. and pair of unusually large
high-heeled shoes. The most incon-
gruous feature OF his attire, however,
| was a dark-green ''matador" hat. en-
circled by narrow yellow ribbon and
decorated with three large, black and
yellow pOm-pOns, and two streamerS
half yard long falling behind.
Detective Sergeant Scott said that
about IL o'clock at night he saw an old
gentleman, who, in addition to this dis
guise, was wearing mass of artificial
cnrls on his forehead, walking along
Regent street, arm in arm with a
woman, and, on account of what some
bystanders told him, he approached
him and peered into his face. The
woman told him to ''leaye the lady
alone," but he tried to raise the heavy
black veil which covered the strange
lady's face. The latter however,
knocked his hand away, but, satisfied
of the persons sex, he took him into
custody.
The old gentleman was found, on ex-
animation at Vine street police station,
to be fully attired as woman. When
asked by the magistrate whether he bad
anything to say, the prisoner pleaded
that he was quite justified IN dressing
as he did, and cont inued:
81 am an artist. and the writer of one
of the most popular little works extant.
Encouraged by the fact that my pub
Usher is Just about to issue fifth edi-
ton of it, | conceived the idea of writ
ing book upon ladies' attire, and, of
course. | could not properly understand
the subject unless / had had experience
in wearing modern w0man'S outfit.
How could tell if corsets- and high
heels really hurt if did not walk about
in them? This hat, you know, was
originally worn by men, but now it is
adopted by women. This cloak (point-
ing to the high shoulders and Medici
COLLAR. was fashionable In the reign
of Henry VIII. This referring to his
shirt is, CAM assure your worship, re-
marKably airy and nice this sultry
weather."
Mr.. Newton inquired of the jailer
whether the prisoner was known.
Prisoner-Oh, everybody knows me.
Mr.. Newton-I shall remand you for
a week to find out who and what you
are.

Love and Romance.

The Chicago Inter Ocean publishes
a romance in which Minneapolis is
made to furnish an interesting scene.
II is related that Will McCurdy, of In

The Iatter's parents demurred, and she

McCurdy resorted to strategy, and got
the girl away, took her to Indianapolis,
and the two are now suing for parental
