WATER ON THE BRAIN.
Registrar Moody Relieves Him.
self on Meters.

Yesterday morning the council COM
mittee on water works met and dis
cussed, in general way, the business
of the department. Registrar Frank
Moody and Supervisor John Mcconnell
were reappointed. The committee will
meet again Thursday morning and
finish the appointments and fix salaries.
Registrar Moody presented his annual
report. The following is the substance
of it:
1.-THE increase of water takers has
been larger than for any other year. land
we have added 1,517 new accounts to our
rental. During the year our inspectors
5,210 reinspectIons of old work. We
elevator registers. OF this number 271
were set during the year. There is a
great demand by almost all water users
for your honorable body to so amend
our present ordinance that meters can
be set at the expense of the city. This
l am of the opinion should be done.
''During the year the total number of
gallons OF water pumped was 4.531. $780,
705, or an average of 12,416.117 per day.
The number pumped for the correspond
ing time In 1889 was 4,720, 81, 185. 1t
will be seen from the above that, not
withstanding the addition of 1,517 new
water takers. we have pumped less
water think this is the first time on
record where we have had decrease.
AS to the cause of this have two the
cries. First-The users of city water
are becoming convinced that water
costs money and cannot be furnished as
cheap as air. There has not been so
much waste as formerly. Secondhand
principally, we have set large number
of meters during the year and to GER
tain extent have set meters on all large
connections made during the year, as
we'll as on some of the old ones. l am
convinced that with meters we can re-
duce the average gallons per day at
least One-third.
The cost of pumping 100000 gallons
at the three stations was as follows:
Station l. West side water power. $50 %
Station 2, East side (water power .... S6
Station 3, North side (steam). .........12 90
"The general running expenses for
the year were $50, 0S7.11, an increase of
| 1923, $3.50. and is owing wholly to the
starting of the North side station. The
running expenses OF the same divisions
that were in operation last year have
decreased S13,375.57. There have been
laid during the year IS miles of new
water mains at cost of $751;, 1889. in
GLIDING new hydrants numbering 207,
and new valves numbering 1877. The
amount collected for water taxes, per-
mits, etc., was ST, SOFIA, an increase o!
14,995.53 over the previous year."

ADJUSTMENTS.

"The Paymaster" was presented at
the Lyceum TO a large audience last
night. The story is in the main we'll
told Many of the scenes are beauti-
fully portrayed, and the comedy is
bright. The real features, however,are
the "real water" scenes. The second
act, which disclosed the prison tour
with vein of the exterior of the con-
Wet walk, and under which flows real
body of water reaching the entire width
of the stage, is one of the strongest and
most realistic pictures ever placed on
the stage. 1t is in this act the hero
makes a dive from the tower window
headlong into the water. Again in the
fourth act the "tank" is used, though
with different surroundings, "The in
slavonge falls" The heroine, Miss
Schovlim, a young and pretty Swedish
leading lady, is sitting on the shore
some twelve feet above the water sketch
ing the window from where her lover
escaped, when Col. Houghton happens
along. He takes this opportunity to
press his suit, and when his love is
scorned grows violent, and with the
frenzy of hon hurls the heroine into
the waters below. quickly making his
escape. AID old man, who has been I'M
gering near by, hears her cries of de
spair and, divesting himself of his dis
guise, plunges into the river to the res
cue. The tension of the audience is
raised to the highest pitch in this scene
and the applause was deafening. There
can be no doubt of the reality of the
water in the "Paymaster," for its
splashes were felt more than once by
members of the orchestra. Of the cast,
the most prominent was Charles Cha
pelle, as Robert Emet O'Conor; Steve
Maley, a capital Irish comedian, as
Larry O'Brien, and Fred Maynard. as
Capt Hammersly: Miss Lillian Schovlin,
who is a Scandinavian by birth. made
capital Ethel Myley. Miss Clara Coleman
played Mona Sullivan with spirit that
was highly appreciated. The other MEM
bers were capable.
The present tone of popular tastes in
matters and things theatrical is the
means of putting ducatS into quite
number of pockets. Frank Wilson has
become a blOated bondhoIder out of the
love of laughter; Charles Hoyt is the
envy of the profession. No man who
ever had the luck has struck pay lead
in heavier ore than he has done. John
the Boston Herald, who wrote "a
Straight Tip'' for Comedian Jimmy
Powers, III pside Down. and other
farce comedies, seems to be starting on
the same high road to fortune; and now
comes De Wolf Hopper, with "Castles
in the Air." bowling along at furious
speed Oh the highway of success. Hop
pes again presented his Castles in the
ARR last night at the Grand to another
packed audience. This delightful
merry production will run all week at
the Grand with Saturday matinee.
Hurlburt's Big Novelty company had
a large house at the Pence last night,
although they opened to a big crowd.
1t is surely the best show of its kind
yet seen here. Ladies' matinee to-day.
Next week, opening Monday, the
original MuldOon'S Picnic Comedy and
Speciality company will be at the Pence.

Hicks Is Against Young.

A. B. Jackson made motion to dis
miss the Gunner Smith damage suit
against the st. Paul & Duluth railroad
on the ground of cOntributory negli-
gence. the same ground that induced
Judge Young to set aside the verdict in
the previous trial. Judge Hicks wouldn't
hear of it, however, and the attorney
then asked to be allowed to read the
opinion of Judge Young in the matter,
which was objected to by the attorney
for the defenfe, an objection which was
sustained by the judge. The outcome
of this second trial will be watched
with interest, on account of the numer-
Gus settings aside OF various verdicts in
damage suits on practically the same
grounds by the Hennepin county bench.

Wilkinson, Third United States infan-

tanning paper entitled Operations
against Hostile Nez Perez Indians"
Capt. WilkinSon'S paper was largely
devoted to the famous ampaign
of Gen. Howard against the NeZ Perces
in which he, the captain, took an active
part. The history of the tribe was also
touched upon, the author referring to
events which occurred as far back as
1888, and which have been the subject
of comment by such writers as Wash
| ington Irving. 1t is well known fac
that the Nez Perces, though fierce and
skillful fighters, have never been known
to attack or kill women and children.
During the Howard campaign they
displayed a wonderful knowledge of
! stragetc Indian warfare, and did some
| splendid fighting. Capt. Wilkinson had

scenes of the bloody conflicts between

A POPULAR SCHEME.
The Street Railway Company Will
Extend Its Suburban Lines.

The street railway company will build
line to st. Louis Park during the COM
ing summer, and it is believed that later
on the new road will be extended to
Lake Minnetonka. The park line will
extend along Hennepin avenue to Lake,
and thence on the boulevard to the syn
dicate's property. To continue the line
to the lake will be comparatively
cheap and easy matter. 1t is thought
that, with the reduction of the fare to
Lake Minnetonka, that resort will be
pOpularized.
The railroads charge rs cents for the
round trip, and the electric line, if
built, will fix the rate at 20 cents. 1t is
said the cheap fares built up the country
arc und Lake Harriet, and made it a
profitable and enjoyable summer resort.
The street car company may not extend
its line to Lake Minnetonka during
next summer, but it is believed it will
do so during the year.

Delegation Checkmated,

The construction committee of the
court house commission have approved
the contract for the next two stories of
the new building. The contract fixes
beyond change the kind Of stone to be
used in the first and second stories. 1t
is granite of the same kind as is used
in the basement. James Baxter 81

for the contract, their figure being
$341, 01S.50. The upper stories of the
county half of the building are also in
Guided in these figures. 1t is question
now whether the letting of this contract
does not put stop to any real interfer-
ence with the building. The delegation
may legislate the commission out of

tract. The letting of the contract is
looked upon as direct slap in the face
OF the Hennepin delegation, "check-

History gives us full-length por-

sors Of mankind. but makes little or
no mention OF the private tyrants who
have abounded In all ages aud coun-
tries among the "undistiuguished
throng.' Yet, In proportion 10 their
opportunities, the latter are. perhaps.
AS culpable as the former. There are
fireside monarchs as cruel. as remorse-
less. as utterly selfish and brutal as
any crowned villain that ever lived.
The difference between one OF these
family despots and Nero or Com
modus Is simply difference OF sphere
and OF power. IL Is true he cannot
violently put 20 death his subjects

held responsible by the law; but he
can kill them by inches without the
slightest danger. He can murder. by
little and little. the poor weak woman
whom he has promised before heaven
TO cherish and protect. with as much
impunity as the Sultan OF Turkey can
bowstring a treacherous slave.

Justice as when she Is cross-simply
and undoubtedly cross--says Agnes u.
Ormsbee. In Harpers Bazaar. This
erossness Ia chiefly caused by fatigue
l-weariness OF mind and body. and
bometimcs OF soul. With tired nerves
hnd weary body. she cannot endure
the common demands made upon her.
and ill-temper follows. She sows bit
ter feelings and repels loving atten-
tions with her irritable hasty words.
Broadly speaking, no mother has any
right TO get so tired. She cannot nf-
ford It. IL takes too much out OF her
life. and too much out OF her chill
dren's life. Such condition can
more frequently be prevented than Is
generally believed.
The careless or shallow woman says:
II was overworked. Ii made me
cross. and she considers that admis-
sion the sufficient reason and excuse
for any amount OF similar indulgence.
The religious or sympathetic woman
Worries over IL, sheds bitter tears
and then the trouble repeats itself.
The remedy lies near at hand. Let
mother find out what makes her cross.
and then let her avoid the cause II

her. let them be decidedly lessened.
II there is too much sowing. too much
cooking. or too many household

IL Is surprising how easily seeming
