Completion of the Largest Map

The largest map ever drawn in the
Northwest has Just been constructed in
Minneapolis. 1t is the work of j. Nc
Gowan, land stands in the land office of j.
w. Barney IL Co., III the Guaranty Loan
building. The map is 15x2l feet, and
takes in Wisconsin, Minnesota, North
and South Dakota, and portions of Iowa
and Nebraska. Mr.. McGowan has been
steadily engaged in this work for the
past six weeks, drawing each county by
itself, and, when finished, piecing them
together on solid framework of planks
so nicely as not to show where they
had been joined. The map. as whole,
is very complete work, and very true
to detail and proportion, showing every
small lake, creek and village, and every
mile of railroad track. 1t reflects great
credit upon the firm and upon the
draughtSman.

E. j. Phelps suggested the idea. The
Exposition parade suggested the idea to
him. He thought that if parade was
a good thing to advertise an Exposition,
1t would be good thing to advertise
city. He spoke about it to several MEM
berS of the Business Mems union. 1t
caught on in great style. A meeting
was called and the thing was settled in
a jiffy. The parade will be the main
feature of the celebration. But, the
men who have the preparations in
charge say it will be no ordinary in
dustrial parade. There will be no end
less procession of wagons and trans
parencies. 1t is intended to arrange
some sort of an allegorical representa-
ton of the progress of the city of Min
neapolis and the whole Northwest.
There will probably be oratory of all
kinds in addition to the parade show.

primitive as it was, it was the best to be

people, in other words, came out. They
were there in full force. and each one
seemed bent to exert himself to
contribute to the pleasures of the
event. Those who were unfortunately
absent have great deal to regret the

NEW YORK, June 1S.-The steamship
South Portland, of the Vessels line, ar
rived from Jamaica ports this afternoon.
Chief Mate j. B. Lowall told the follow
ing tale: On the afternoon of June II
the Portland touched at Port Marie.
Mate LOwall was sent on shore to get
the mails. On his way to the post
Office he came across a crowd
of blacks on the village green. There
must have been at least 500 of them, and
when Lowall inquired what the row was
about, they informed him that a battle
royal was just about to begin. Four
coolies, all natives of the town. had be-
came involved in sort of Montague
Capulet controversy, and each of them
had arrived at the conclusion that Port
Marie and this planet generally was al
together too good place to harbor the
other three sany longer. So they had
mutually decided to fight to the death.
In the center of the green an enclosure
had been made, and inside of it, at each
corner, stood one of the four contest
ants. They were stripped to the waist,
and each man grasped in his right hand
a knife with blade seven inches long,
For moment the men stood glaring
at each other, then the word was
given and the fight began. 1t was
case of every man for himself with a
vengeance. Lowall says that without
any exception it was the most fearful
sight he ever saw. In five minutes it
was all over. When the police arrived
upon the scene, three bodies, hacked
almost beyond recognition. lay inside
the ropes. The fourth man was so
crazed by his wounds that before the
police could lay hands on him he drove

the proprietor and manager, be-

The solid citizens of st. Paul

Welz a complimentary banquet.
There was double purpose in this
movement. The first was purely fra
ternal, and the second was an expert
ment. Perhaps it is best to explain
more definitely. The thought had been
pretty thoroughly disseminated through
out the city that the unhappy event,
the closing would probably kill the
hotel. That is, that it would so thor
oughiy frighten everybody that they
would shun it, and that, therefore,
the place must hereafter be run
at great loss financially or eventually
be abandoned. The temper of the
board of business mentors was to test
popular sentiment, and the banquet
was decided upon. Last night it oc-

CHICAGO, June 1S.-Revelry reigned
supreme IN the big banQueting hall of
Klnsley's tonight. Graybeards who
had not cracked a joke for many
decades exchanged witticisms with
their neighbors without waiting for the
formality of an Introduction, while
orators of national repute first bent their
heads and then finally succumbed be
meath the storm of Interruptions that
greeted their initial words. For once
Henry WatterSon was nonplussed, Sol
Smith Russell chagrined, and even
as eminent and dignified a men,
Der of the American judiciary
as Judge Reed. of Philadelphia,
who in his day has sentenced many
score of criminals to terms long and

OF the ermine and stand his share of

the famous Glover club of PHILADELPHIA
by James w. Scott. of the Chicago Her
aid, that afforded occasion for this fes-
tiyity.
The host himself occupied the chair
OF state, although Moses p. Handy, by
virtue of his position as president of the
Clover club, welded the gavel. On

speeches. Mr.. Scott, who was first in

The "reminiscences of Sol Smith Russell

end. Judge Reed, of Philadelphia, got
off his little speech. and Gen. Miles, eX-

themselves heard. 1t was we'll on to-

ROBBERS LEVY TRIBUTE.
Princely Mode of Living of Turk
ish Brigands.

LONDON, June 1S.-A dispatch from
Constantinople gives all alarming ac-
count of the increase of brigandage in
various parts of the Turkish empire.
In the Turkish province known as
Old Servia, a brlgand chief named
Mihran has established himself
in the mountains with about eighty
followers, and lives in prIncely fashion
on blackmail eXacted from the people
of the villages. These are glad to pay
for the exemption and the protection of
their property from injury, and for that
purpose rich householders pay Mihron
sum in proportion to their possessions,
Christians being obliged to pay about
double the amount eXacted from Turks.
Mihran is said to be renegade Ital-
ian, and he holds his followers in
complete discipline. Mihran exacts
from every one the honors due to the
rank of pasha. The Turkish authori-
ties made demonstration of attacking
the brigands about three months ago,
but withdrew their forces without hav-
ing done anything of consequence.
Mihran remained in seclusion for few
days, and then suddenly descended on
the villages and collected all the
amounts that the peasantry had agreed
to pay.

SIavin Given the Fight---An Ex-

New DIRK, Junne 18.-Jere Dunn.
the referee in the Slavin-Kilrain glove
fight, made his decision tonight. He
awards the fight to Slayln, and declares
that Kilrain was rot knocked out. Bets
that he would not be knocked out in
ten rounds are won, because the winner
is declared after less than ten rounds
had been contested. Dunn says that the
tlmekeeper, DAILY, made an unfort innate
mistake, after the gong got out of Or
der, by not calling out from his watch,
by which he was timing, the seconds
that elapsed When Kilrain was down in
the ninth round. He then states that
he considers himself officially at fault
in not keeping his eyes toward
the center of the ring at that
time in order to see for himself how
quickly Kilrain got up. He explains
the fact that his back was toward Kill
rain by saying that he felt it his duty.
on account Of Slavin's method of fight
ing, to watch the fight to prevent him
from fouling. Dunn says that
Slavin always showed a desire to
go in and slug KiIrain the ms
tant he arose from falling down. The
against such tactics and says he would
have decided against SlavIn had he COM
mitted the act in the ninth round. AS
Kilrain was practically beaten, the
referee did not like to decide against
the foreigner on the ground of foul.
He devoted his energy to keeping
Slavin in his corner rather than stand
ing and watching both men. Kilraln
and Muidoon received the $500 of the
$4,000 this evening after the official de-
cision was given. The other side will
get their $500 tomorrow, although the
receipts in the hall reached only
about $4,000 in all. During the even
ing Slavin and Mitchell, who seemed
to have been drinking, made a good
deal OF noise and intimated in rOunda-
bout way to Dunn that he had been
afraid to decide that Kilrain was
knocked out because hiSOunn' s. friends
had bet against that result Dunn re-
piled that if he only got bad reputation
from such people as the men who were
talking his character would always
be of the best. Then he told Slayin
that he ought to be ashamed of himself
for speaking in that style, and finally
called him a brute. Slavin was re-
quested to leave the hotel and he did.
