Value of the Great Bear in Indicating
the Pole Star-The Lesser Bear.
The Great Bear, or Charles VAIN" or
tie "Plow," as Ursa Major IS variously
called, is OF great value in indicating the
pole star, which when once known can
never be mistaken. This constellation has
also been termed the Clipper" and is very
conspicuous in the northern hemisphere.
The three stars form the bears tail, or the
handle of the ''plow;;" the others form the
body. Charles Vain, or ''Karl-Wagen,"

these animals are guided to their food by

TALK STRIKE AGAIN.
Packers and Nailers Are Breed
ing Turmoil and Trouble.

The packers and nailers of the flour mills
are again talking of striking. An evening
paper said yesterday that they would all walk
out to-day unless their demands were acceded
TO. This is incorrect The movement among
the men has not gone that far yet. Thev de-
mand higher wages, and are prepared to
strike to get them, but they are willing to
take the raise without striking. The men
have the same old complaint to make-loH
wages The packers are getting $3.50 a day
and they demand an advance Of p cents or
q raise to 81. Is and S2.25. This is part of the
same old trouble that has been brewing be-
tween the packers and nailers and the mill
ers for over year. There has been talk
of a strike every few months. just at this
season, however, the mills are supposed to
be busy and the men think it a good time to
make demand for more money.
c. A. Pillsbury was the only miller seen
yesterday who would admit that there was
any dissatisfaction amongthe men,
Yes" said he, when the inquiry was made,
Il know that the packers and nailers are de-
manding more money for their work"
Have they threatened to strike if the adj
vance is not granted?'
Il haven't heard any threats"
do you think they will striker
81 don't know what they will do. I'm not
a mind-reader.'
''WiIl the advance be conceded to the men
in your mills:"
Il don't like to discuss my business affairs
in public
That was all the big miller would say. He
absolutely declined 10 discuss the matter.
While there are several hundred packers
and nailers in all the mills combined, tits said
that all are not members Of the union Fur
ther, some of the non-union men hint that
the strikers, if they become such, will find
a game. The millers are not too anxious to
keep on grinding, They have no desire 10
grind at loss, and they would be as well
pleased, it is thought, to knock off work for
a few weeks to let the wheat and -four market
get settled.

GOV. PATTISON TESTIFIES.
His Dealings With Bardsley Very
Limited.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. f7.-Council's
subcommittee Ito investigate the affairs
of ex-City Treasurer Bardsley and the
keystone National bank met this after
noon. Gov. Pattison was present and
was sworn. He told of his connection
with the Chestnut Street bank as presi-
dent and of the deposit of money there
in, for which Bardsley drew about
81, 100 as interest. The bank refused to
pay 8 per cent, and the account was
withdrawn. He had never met Bards-
ley socially, land only twice in his official
capacity.
The committee then resumed the ex-
animation OF the mayors expert ac-
countants relative to the money
loaned by Bardsley to great number
of persons, as shown by the stubs of his
check books. The sums loaned by
Bardsley were mostly small. The slist
of persons who appear to have received
money from Bardsley for various rea-
sons was long one, land included many
prominent politicians. In the cases OF
the latter the money in the majority of
cases was repaid. BY the testimony of

One Verdict Made a Recommend

Censure.

One Verdict Made a Recommend
alton and the Other Dealt Out
Censure.
There were two inquests yesterday.
The first was held over the body of
little Chistoph A. LANCE, the boy who
was run over over by wood cart Satur-
day afternoon. The evidence showed
that his death was purely accidental.
The jury recommended that the council
take action to prevent the hauling of
two or more wood carts at ore time,
hltched together, that is. Five children
have been killed within six months by
catching OH these carts.
The second inquest had the death of
James Blair as a subject. Flair was a
gardener, living out near Parker. He
was struck by a 500 passenger train
Saturday night and died Sunday. Cars
standing on the side track Of the North
ern Mill company cut of his view of
the track so that he could not see the
approaching train until he was upon
the track. The jury thought the North
ern Mill company partially responsible
for his death in allowing cars to stand
in the street close up to the crossing.
The Northern Pacific company was CEN
sured for allowing such use 10 be made
of a side track connected with its line,
and the city was blamed for not COM
polling the railroad company and mill
company to obey the ordinances gov
erning railroad crossings.

when the committee from the Eighth

ders and Farnsworth represented the

invited them to be seated. After Farms

alive business began.
In his mildesi tones, the ones he uses
when about to ask the park board to
give him section OF the city, Goodrich
told the committee that he was the
Eighth wards best friend, not even eX-
cepting John Day Smith. He wanted
to give the Eighth ward the best serv-
ice in the city. He would do it by ex-
tending the Nicollet and Lyndale ave-
nue. lines to Thirty-fourth street. He
had taken off the Thirty-frst street cars
in the day time because he didn't sup
pose they carried many people. He
supposed that everybody would be
pleased with the evening car service
after p. m. Grimes suggested that

junction and the lakes. The sugges-
ton was passed. Hereafter every
fourth car during the day will be met
by car at the junction. The junction

The meeting of the park board IN the
First ward last evening was "hot one
in every sense of the term. but. as far
as business was concerned, might as
we'll never been held.
The Open Door church, with both
doors and windows open, was crowded
to suffocation, and the heat was intense.
The residents of the ward and Inter
ested property owners and taxpayers
filled the seats. while they who are
neither one nor the other stood around
the walls. and punctuated the proceed
ings with such remarks as "Oh. sit
down before YOU are knocked down.
"Put him out" Throw him troo de
window" and "Oh! shut your face,
you indian"
The park board was represented by
President Haugan and Commissioners
Boardman. Loye, Ridgeway, BradiSh,
Folwell. Allen and Ryan and Secretary
Nve. President Haugan said, IN calling
the meeting to order, that this was
business meeting, and must be consld-
cred as such. Commissioner Lawrence
then requested that the secretary make
a statement of the probable assessment
for the park, and Secretary Nye re-
sponded with the figures for Moulton
park, showing assessments OF from -
TO S35, according to the distance OF the
property assessed from the PARK, pay
able in ten annual payments.
The secretary then read a protest
from s, G. Gale against the location OF
a mark on block 9, Marshal'S addition.
He argued that the property all around
contained stone which would be quar-
ried. and that the park would be for
wears to come environed by unslghtly
buildings and surroundings. EX-Ald.
John Fleetham made brief speech adj
yocating the park, and incidentally tax
ing a roast at Mr.. Gale. whose title TO
property in the ward he strongly ques-
toned.
Mr.. Dolan and one other First warder
objected 10 taxing the people any more,
and these remarks were heartily APP
plauded. Mr.. La Roux stated that he
was in favor of park IN the First ward,
but thought it should be located further
from Washburn park on the north,
as the same people who had
paid for the Ninth ward park
would also be called upon to
paw for this one. At this Mike Hoy
cut in, saying: THAT statement IS not
true and he knows it." Mr.. La Roux
tried to explain. but Hoy insisted that
ne had misrepresented. Mr.. Gibson, a
real estate dealer, then stated that the
lots were not worth $1,000 apiece. Harry
Burke asked that the matter be sub
mitted to vote of the meeting. and the
park board agreed. The following res
olution was then introduced:
Resolved, That this meeting recommend
that the board of park commissioners in
definitely postpone the purchase OF block y,
Narshali's addition, for park urposes
After a number of attempts to amend,
all of which failed to carry, this motion
was put and lost, but fewer than half
of those present had any idea what
they were voting upon. and a portion
of the others voted both ways. This
leaves the matter just where it was.

North side market project met yesterday
afternoon at Aid. Durnams Office, and ar
ranged that the meeting called for tonight
at Hunts hall shall be postponed for
another week. While there has been
a visible increase in the subscrip-
tons the amount has nowhere near
reached the $4,000 mark, the amount
required to start the affair. 1t is intended by
the committee 10 give one week more can
vass and then, if the stock is not fully sub
scribed. all abandonment of the project is
possible 1t is reported that there is heavy
undercurrent working against the location in
the medium of the Twentieth avenue resi-
dents, who are desirous of locating the mar
ket in their midst. As only sixty days are
granted By the council for the acceptance OF
the franchise, some immediate action mus
be taken.
