ADJUSTMENTS.

The first of the course of illustrated
lectures by Il, H. Raglan attracted an
audience that filled the Lyceum theater
to nearly its full capacity last evening.
The views of Alaska were beautiful in
the extreme, the majority of them being
colored, rejecting the unique scenery
of that comparatively unknown region
with as much faithfulness as is
possible. Mr. Raglan has succeeded
in accommodating vast fund of informa-
ton concerning this isolated territory
of the Unitef States, and it Will be
strange if j. lectures do not awaken a
greater interest than is now manifested
in the welfare of its people, as well as
in its mineral resources. The pictures
are numerous, and are passed IN rapid
review. and Mr. Ragan's graceful mar
rative made the evening seem almost
like trip through the seas Of ice.
This afternoon the lecture will be
upon "The Yosemite and the Yellow
stone" and the admission will be but
25 cents. In the evening "Paris the
Magnificent" will be given.

The Policemen's Ball - Last
Day Of the Poultry
Show.

Last Thursday evening Mrs. Emma
Erickson, wife of Henry Erickson. a
tailor living at III Twenty third avenue
south. was found by the South side
police wandering about in demented
condition. Religious excitement was at
the bottom of her delusion. and she was,
when locked up, very violent. Yester-
day morning she was removed to the
probate court from the city hospital,
where she had been taken. the
police being unable to manage her.
Her hair was undoue and hung in di-
sheveled mass. Her arms were pinioned
covered her feet, only wooden stockings.
She was borne into the probate court
loom and placed in chair. The blan-
ket fell away. disclosing to curious eyes
that she was dressed in loose, dirty
wrapper, which had become unbut-
toned. Around her shoulders she had a
strip of figured cloth, which had evil
IDENTIFY done duty as curtain.
One of the officers stated that the
woman'S name was Emma Erickson,
and that they had taken her from the
city hospital. At the hospital she was
so violent that the attendants could not
control her. Mrs. Erickson soon be-
came composed and answered nearly
all questions in a rational manner.
Later her husband appeared and told
how she had been acting. There was
no doubt as to her insanity, ana Judge
Corrigan committed her to the asylum
at st. Peter.
Soon after being removed to the Jail
pending transportation to st. Peter, Mrs.
Erickson again became very violent.
At times she would shout and scream
and shake the bars of the cell where she
was confined. Again she would break
into song, hymns written liz the Norwe-
gian language, seeming to be her favor
ties. A other times her face would be
lightened up as if she were gazing upon
most delectable scenes and expressions
indicative of rapture would break from
her. Then she would relapse into moody
silence, only to become violent again
ere many minutes had passed. Thus
she spent all of the afternoon and a
good part of the early evening, but the
violent spells became more frequent and
uncomfortable. Along toward 8o'clock
she fell in cOnyulsive fit. She rallied
only to go into another. A physician
was called, but he could do nothing for
her. One fit succeeded another rapidly,
and at 500 she died. Coroner Byrnes
was notified, and the remains ordered
removed to Gleason d McAllister's
morgue. A post norton examination
will be held this morning to determine
the cause of her death.

JUST A LITTLE DISPUTE.
An Action Against the Building
and Loan Association.

Johanna Mahoney has begun an ac-
ton against the American Building and
Loan association, which arises from
deal of some magnitude, and which is
so mixed as to require large number
of pages of closely typewriter copy
to explain. The gist Of the whole mat
ter is that there is dispute between
the parties as to the balance between
them. Some time ago the plaintiff
wished to erect row of tenements on
lot 9, block 2, Buffers addition, enter
ing into deal for the required sum on
the building plan of the association.
This plan is recited at length in the
complaint, but is of little interest. The
association, after time, claimed that
the interest on the mortgage had lapsed,
and served notice that the instrument
would be foreclOSed.
Now the lady brings an action for the
purpose of having an accounting in the
matter. Now she claims that, although
the association insists that there is $685.,
629 due on the deal, and that the inter-
est has been allowed to lapse. she has
a large amount due her as her interest
on large number of shares she holds,
enough to more than liquidate the in
terest due, if applied. The suit will be
of some interest, as it will make clear
the exact standing of parties to loans
with the association.

THEY SOUGHT LIGHT.
St. Paul Gentlemen Inquire Into
Minneapolis Municipal Expend-

1CureS.
The wave of reform now sweeping
over st. Paul induced several of the
prominent citizens of that city to put on
their overcoats yesterday and run over
to Minneapolis to see how municipal
matters are managed in the Flour City.
The delegation was headed by A. S.
Tallmadge. of the chamber of COM
merce. As soon as they arrived they
sought the city hall and spent the after
noon in quizzing City Clerk Haney and
Comptroller Armstrong. They wanted
to find out why Minneapolis, larger
city than st. Paul, according to the CEN
suS returns, could be governed at less
outlay of current coin of the United
States treasury department. They
found that last year the expend-
itures from the Minneapolis gen
eral fund amounted to something
over 100000, while in st. Paul. they
said. it had cost over $1,000,000 to deal
out government in sufficient doses to
satisfy the cravings of the assimilative
system of the citizens of commerce.
They were not pleased with the con-
trast. AS they lowered their hats over
their brows ana buttoned their coats
about them, there were indistinct NUT
terings which foretold trouble for some
one.

GRAND JURY'S SAY SO.
It's Labor Completed and Many
Indictments Found.


The grand jury yesterday finished its
work upon its return from the Junket,
and handed in bunch of twenty-one
indictments. But little could be learned
in regard to them, but this much is GER
tain, that all who are at present con-
fined In the county Jail except Francis
Nun have had true bills found against
them. Frank P. Minis has his name in
scribed upon one of them, if the word
of those who should know is to be taken.
In Lapping'S case, no Indictment mas
been found. This case called for con-
siderable argument, but the jury seemed
to share the popular opinion that the
man was to be pitied. One of the jurors
was heard to remark that no lndlct-
ments were returned in which there
would not be a reasonable chance to
count, and in this case a conviction
would be doubtful. Besides, the penalty
in such case was greater than he &C.
tually deserved, considering his state OF
mind at the time of the shooting.
The prisoners that have been indlct-
ed will be arraigned Tuesday morning.
The balance will be brought in as soon
as soon as they can be rounded up. The
jury handed in its report of the visits
made to the various public institutions,
a paper which was gem Ill It's way,
the grammar and spelling having been
altered in the following copy to suit the
manner in vogue in the nineteenth CEN
fury. The report calls for considerable
outlay by the county, and, it will be
noticed. also recommends the addition
of a janitor to the Jail force, which the
county commissioners thought proper
some time ago to let off. Following IS
the report:
The grand jury, having visited the
following, would respectfully recon-
mend:
County jail-We find that the old por-
ton of the Jail, not now in use. should
be put in condition for the detention OF
boys and such other parties whose asso-
in the main building only tends
to their education in crime; that
there be added to the present force
one more jailor, as the present number
is inadequate for the duties imposed
upon it. WOrkhouse-We find that in
stitution we'll conducted and credit to
the city, and recommend that regular
days labor be given to all those III
confinement able to work; that an cleo
trio light plants for lighting be substl-
tuted for oil now in use, as the lnStltu-
ton has sufficient boiler capacity. and
a plant could he put in at little expense,
thus making saving in cost, and fur
nlshing better light. There would also
be less risk. Poor Farm-This institu-
ton, we cannot see. could be improved
upon in any way, being efficiently and
well conducted" This document was
signed by Albert G. Loring, foreman.
and Charles l.. Gone, clerk.
The jury has been at work for five
days, longer time than has been con-
sumed for many months In the compile
ton of its business. Judge Lochren
spoke few pleasant words to the gem
tlemen as he discharged them, and they
made rush for the clerks Office to set
tie up with the county.

STILL ANOTHER ONE.
August SahlstrOm Wants to Solve
the Garbage Question.

the Garbage Question.
The garbage question bids fair to take
rank alongside of Harlow Gales market
ordinance. 1t isn't settled yet any more
than is was when the crematOry was
built couple of years ago, and every
week or so new man hobs up with a
new scheme which is guaranteed to
forever solve the veXatiOuS question.
But, somehow, these schemes never do
render this problem soluble. Their fail
ure does not, however, prevent the con-
cOction of new ones. The most recent
addition to the men of schemes is named
August Sahlstrom. He lives at 22i1
Eleventh avenue south. Yesterday,
under the chaperonage of Aid. Parry,
he visited the city hall and explained
his proposition to the health commits
sioner. His plan has one merit-cheap-
ness, and whether it be feasible remains
to be demonstrated.
Mr.. Sahlstrom proposes to have the
city lease for him three acreS,Of ground,
near some railroad, and to provide for
the delivery of the night soil to the
buildings which he will erect on the
land. The city's only expense IN the
matter will be the lease, which. on
three acres, will be not NOR han a
few hundred dollars year, Hand in re-
I'll. n the gentleman is willing to engage
to take care of the night soil. which is
the only perplexing feature of the garb-
age question. MI. Sahlstrom guar
antees that he has process by which
he can manufacture guanO equal to
any in the world. He says that with
the assistance of twelve men he could
handle 100 barrels of garbage day, and
that in three weeks he could convert it
into guano. The guano, he claims, will
be absolutely devoid of any unpleasant
or offensive odor. He refuses to dis
close the nature of his process, but init
mates that slack lime is powerful
factor in it. The scheme he has in
mind has been in successful operation,
he says, in Germany, Denmark and
Sweden for quarter of century, and
he shows credentials which say he is
an honorary member of the Royal
Agricultural societies of Sweden and
Denmark.
Now comes the interesting feature of
this scheme. Mr.. Sahlstrom has very
little capital, but says he can establish
the plant for $1,000 or $1,000. if the city
will loan him that amount. Mr.. Sahl-
strom's plan is regarded with some
doubt as to lis practicability in view of
the modest sum he requires to build it.
The health board will consider it at
their meeting next Monday.

her flexible voice gave an exquisite col

which included Celeste Aida" BY

THE PATROL LIMITS.
The Minist ers Propose to Carry
the War Into Africa.

me MlnlSC erS propose TO carry
the War Into Africa.
Twenty citizens, including quite a
number of the clergy, We're present at
the supplementary meeting called to
perfect plans to defeat the proposed
patrol limits extension which was held
at the Y. NJ. c. A. rooms yesterday
afternoon. Rev. n. Falk Gjertsen, the
leading spirit in the movement,
presided. He said that the movement
might be poohed-poohed by many as
coming from the ministers who are al
ways fighting for temperance. He
thought that more effective work could
now be accomplished by the laity. He
suggested that hall be secured, at st.
of the legislature be invited to hear the
situation discussed. He said the brew
erS and wine merchants to whom extern
sion of the patrol limits means hum
dreds of thousands of dollars are work
ing actively. lie thought that the peo-
pie of Minneapolis did not want any
more saloons, and a protest signed by
5000 people which he held in his hand
was all indication of that fact.
j. A. WOiverton concurred. He said
he wanted prohibition, but If he could
not get that, was willing to take what
he could get. j II. Scott, of North Min
neapolis, said he had lived in that sec
ton of the city seven years, and did not
think twenty people were in favor of
the extension. He moved that a COM
mittee of fifteen be appointed to take
charge of the matter of remonstrance at
once. Rev. L. E. Wells spoke for South
Minneapolis. Rev. Fir. Byrne. of the
Immaculate Conception church, gave
emphatic assurance of support from the
Catholics. The following committee was
finally selected: George A. PillsDury,
B. f. Nelson, j. T. Wyman, j. A. VOL
verton, ]. II. Scott, Sven Oftedal,
Charles n. Robinson, Edward, Russell.
P. B. Lacey, Rev. Fir. Kinney, Rev. Fir.
