Attention Is Called

To letter published on this page from
Mr.W. III. Traeger, of Bloomington, ILL.,,
complimenting the management of the
Educational Endowment Association on
their conduct during the different
stages of earthquakes which have come
over the association. Within the past
year, by reason of the transfer of certifi-
Gates, the company has reduced its liza
bilities nearly three-QuarterS, while the
ipcOmc has been about the same.

The Jefferson Club.

Last nights meeting of the executive
committee of the Jefferson club was de-
voted principally to discussing the FEAST
bility of celebrating April 3, the birth
day of Thomas Jefferson. The club will
in all probability celebrate the day, but
arrangements have not yet been per-
fected. An effort will be made to secure
the cooperation of st. Paul Democrats
in the undertaking. Should it be de-
cided to hold celebration, it will be on
a magnificent scale.

Want the Company Dissolved.

Emerson Cole, Vincent D. Gibson and
BENJAMIN F. Bartlett, who constitute a
majority of the board of direct
ors of the Gibson Investment COM
pany, have filed in the dis
trict court a petition asking that the
company be dissolved. as the objects for
which the company was formed have
been abandoned, and no one will be
benefited in any way by continuing the
company. A statement accompanying
the application shows that the company

A Peculiar Receipt.

The case of The Minneapolis Sash and
Door Company against William Gillen,
to recover s1,O5O for goods furnished,
was tried before Judge Pond yesterday.
Judgment was rendered for the plaintiff
for the full amount. The defense intro
duced receipt for $3.50, alleged to have
been given by the company, but the COM
pany declared that the only receipt it
had ever given Gillen was for SIS, abont
two years ago. The receipt was an odd
looking affair, to say the least, and
Judge Pond threw it out.

MINNEAPOLIS.
NOTE AND COMMENT.

Maj. r. r. Henderson has already
made proud record in public life. In
office less than a month, he has twice
been appointed superintendent of po-
lice without having been out of Office.
Two appointments i'll one month to one
position SayOrS of SpOntaneity.
The newspaper reports Of the number
of Flaps covered at the walking match
seem to have excited considerable curl
Osty in the minds of the girls who at
tend base ball matches and can never
be made to understand why the umpire
is not allowed to go to bat. AS result
there is quite au attendance of the fair
sex at the Washington rink this week.
The aldermen did not, as was ex
pected, adjourn yesterday to Washing
ton rink. (They did not receive an IN
VitatiOn)
"United we stand; divided, the other
fellows sneak III through the woodshed
and lug off the apple pie" That is the
motto emblaZoned upon the banners
thrown from the outer walls OF the
First ward.
Freeman P. Lane and j. Torrance
Mannix, of the Pioneer Press, started to
run mile at the Washington street
rink the other night for SO side and
a cheese sandwich. A good start was
made, but, after the first half had been
covered, Joe stopped to give advice to
man in the crowd, and Freeman WoD
In a canter by neck.
Yesterdays council meeting was I'M
usually tame and inintereSting. jim
Bradish not even once attempted to III
suit any one.
The holy calm which perVaded the
city last night was due to the quietnesS
of the sumbers Of the policemen. They
were confident that they would con-
tinue to draw their salaries for another
month.
1t is apprehended that Supt. West of
the workhOuSe is well contented with
his present salary, and will not run the
risk of getting himself into debt again
by asking fol another raise.
1t is unprecedented that the meeting of
the Jefferson club last evening was for
the purpose of arranging to attend the
performance ny Joe JcHcISoH DIT lHe
Grand in body tonight.
The seersucker coat of oratory in the
city council, which was worn for two
years by Vandewaker, is now being
torn by the rivalry between MCGOWAN
and Rand as to who shall wear it,
1t is whispered that, if the Heilpern
case ever comes to trial, number of
gay gentlemen about town will find the
climate of Minnesota too Frosty to suit
them at this season of the year, necessi-
tating trips to warmer chimes until
spring comes.
1t is shrewdly suspected that Andrew
Bergstrom, the wafer works engineer.
controls several votes, as wltnesseth the
anxiety of both Sixth ward aldermen to
protect his salary.

Cases Which Were Begun Many
Years Ago Continued.
The four cases of The st. Anthony
Water Power Company VS.. The Mime
sofa Eastern Railway Company, which
have been dragging along in the dis
trict court for several years past, were
called again Yesterday. Just as the
cases were about to be dismissed, rep
resentative Of one of the corporations
concerned walked up to the clerks desk
and secured continuance. The cases
are an appeal from condemnation pro-
ceedings for railroad that was pro-
posed some ten years ago to run directly
across the falls. When the trials came
off the water power company was
awarded damages in the sum of 81. An
appeal was taken, and instead of reach
ing a second trial they have been con-
tlnued ever since. owing to the neglect
of the proper persons to get together
and make an order diSmlSSing them.
The railroad company is paying all the
costs.

The county commissioners will meet

number of bills-some OF them large

THE ST. CHARLES CLOSED.
No Free Lunch After the Per-

fOrmance" Tonight.
The st. Charles hotel, at the corner Of
First avenue south and Second street,
was yesterday made to look as though
the family had just moved out. Shortly
after breakfast officers of the law came
down upon the peaceful hostelry
and under the foreclosure of a
chattel mortgage for $4,000 held by
Mrs. II. p. Hanson seized upon the
furniture and everything else seizable
in the house that did not belong to
guests. The work OF removing the
stuff continued during the day. Fur
niture. carpets, bedding, cooking uten-
sils were taken, and by night the inter-
ior of the hotel was full of emptiness.
M. Macdonald, the landlord, had quite
recently taken hold of the house, and
claims he had just got it on paying

Among the guests were the members

Devil in Paris" in which they appear
nightly, wasn't a marker to the
impromptu comedy-farce entitled "The
Sheriff in Minneapolis" which was pro-
duced with startling effect until the
high-kicking females discovered that
their baggage was not to be touched.
Then they packed their costumes in col
lar boxes, and sought accommodations
elsewhere.

Tough, VIII Pull Hemp.
Detective Campbell is in the city,
having returned from Perryville, Nc
Dowell county, w. Va, where he has
been attending court. He was wit
ness in the case of Harry Christian, a
negro, charged with shooting William
Crow on October -.
1t seems that Crow was shot without
provocation. The deed was nothing
short of cold blooded murder, and
Christian made his escape into Ken
lucky.
He took up his residence in Pike
Hatfield Mccoy feuds, and spent the
winter. He was soon located by Camp
bell, who wrote a letter to John Blank
enship, the deputy sheriff Of the county,
describing Christian, and asked for his
arrest.
1t was not long before Campbell re-
ceived word that Christian was coralled
by the sheriff. lie went at once to
kentucky and took charge of him, and
succeeded in landing his man in the
Nc Dowell county Jail.
lie was tried before Judge McClaugh-
erty last week. a long chain OF cir
cumstantial evidence was clearly estab-
lished, and the jury were out only ten
minutes. They came in and tho pris-
oner was found guilty of murder in the
first degree, and sentenced to be hanged
on the 18th Of July.
Christian figured in this city several
months ago, and came originally from
