The rich turfman. the base ball crank,

cal talk when the theaters are flourish

and so on. When none of these are
live subjects, the conversation IS GEN

something as follows:

The NlcOllet House is where big men
from small towns like to stop while in
town. and old soldiers stop here to en-
JOY the cOmpaniOnship of congenial
spirits. One PECULIARLY OF this well
known hosiery is the predomiuance of
Americans, the guests being made up
almost entirely of this nationality. The
conversation differs considerably
from that of the West and other
hotels having more of the
sporting turn to it and slang phrases are
no stranger to the car. The. presence
of many old sports around town who
call to the latest tip on race or fight
introduces Renaissance vein into the
conversation.

When theatrical party arrives in town
you can put it down as fact that they

The up country party who stops at
the West for the first lime invariably
walks around the rotunda in daZed
manner and gaZes open mouthed at the
frescOeing, marble floors and rich fur

What They Find to Talk
About and Pass the
Time.

Did 1t ever strike you that there is
more distinctive character in the hotels
in Minneapolis than in any other Of the
city institutions, not excepting the mu-
nicipal courts. where character after
character can be seen from all conditions
and shades of life? The difference be-
tween guests at one of the large hostel
ries and the persons to be seen IN the
court room are vastly different in aspect
and bearing. Still, they are all human
ity. At the former they are full
of business with which they are eager
TO get through with, or leisurely enjoy
Ing fragrant Havana. In the police
court, those who are not there on bust
ness have dropped in out of idle curl
Ousity and drink in with avidity the
evidence in any sensational case. The
witnesses with a bored expression on
their faces plainly show they feel like
fishes out Of water, and wish they were
far away. The principals, well, they
evidently do not realize their surround
lngs, their whole attention being given
10 the case in hand. Hate, malice,
envy, jealousy and all the other human
passions can here be seen day after day.
Every large hosiery in the city is
fully charged with humanity, but in
each there is hemogenity of patronage.
The different hotels have become per-
feet indexes to the character of their
guests. With what discretion an hotel
runner Will "size up" new arrivals, and
with what rare tact he selects those who
are apt to patronize his house! They
rarely make mistake. One of them

ST. MATTHEW'S MISSION.
Again Are the Defendants VIM
ners in Their Suit.


The st. Matthew's Episcopal mission
trouble bobbed up in court again yes
terday for the third time. The plant
ifs, Hector Baxter ct al, claimed that
they represent the bishops committee.
and have been in possession of the
chapel for more than year, and pro-
duced an affidavit showing that four out
of seven members of the committee
were appointed by Bishop Gilbert to
care for st. Matthew's Missionary sOci-
ETY., to control and use the church and
to continue holding services in it as
they have always done.
Rev. A. j. Graham, in an affidavit,
says that he took charge of the mission
when it was first built, and that in the
early part of April. when Rev. E. j.
Purdy was holding service in the
chapel at the request of John G. Reno,
one of the plaintiffs was guilty of indie
cent and wicked conduct by interrupts
ing the services, to the great scandal of
the congregation worshiping.
After hearing arguments on both
sides, Judge Lochren decided in favor
of the defendants, as they were trustees
for the congregation. Each side to pay
their own costs.

{. Perry Ryan, "the Youngest Soldier" and
Henry Hart Under Arrest at Chicago.

CHICAGO. Jan. &c. Perry Ryan and
Henry Hart, formerly q wealthy Board of
Trade man, were arrested late last night on o
charge of carrying on q systematic swind-
ling scheme. 1t is estimated hat the OPP
e~ratious of the men have Melted them close
20 S9O, 900, and that the number of their
victims will exceed a dozen. Ryan bought
q tract OF land in East Chicago, paid a
small amount on it, and secured an abstract
of title and began to advertise desirable
lots for sale. Hart was the negotiator of
the sales, OF rather trader, for most of the
transactions were in the way OF swapping
these lots for saloons. grocery stores. etc:
As soon az these properties were secured
they were mortgaged and the business al
lowed to run itself. 1t was out of the pro-
Deeds of the mortgage that the money was
made. The story came ont through q Mrs.
Graves, Of st. Paul, who says she came to
Chicago with Ryan. suppcsing him to be o
single man. and having his promise of mar
riage. When she discovered that he was o
married man with several children she

CANNOT BE PASSED.

Neither the Closure Rule Nor the Elections
Bill Can Go Through the Senate.
Special 10 the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-It 10 expected
that Senator Cameron, now thst he has
heard from his constituency, would change
his vote over in favor of the closure resolu-
ton. and therefore for the elections bill, If
he had q chance. But that would not give
the measure success. for it is stated that
there are Republicans who have heretofore
voted for consideration of both these prop
~ositions who will absent themselves with
out q pair or will vote against taking MP
the closure resolution if q move 10 made In
that direction, and do il on the ground
that they believe that the measures cannot
be passed, and that the time should be
given to consideration of other business.
So there is no real hope now Of taking up
either the closure resolution or the cleo
tons bill. The attitude of Senator Stanford
against the resolution and the elections
bill creates great surprise. As the vote in
the Senate now stands both these PROPOSE
tions have q majority of two against them.
There are Teller. Wolcott, ingalls,, Stanford,
Washburn. Cameron. Stewart and Jones of
Nevada in the negative on the Republican
side. Senator Hearst, of California. is
expected to die at any moment.
and his death would give the
majority against closure and the elections
bill less force. IL is customary to regard q
pair for q senator who dies till his sue
cessor is elected or appointed. but Is Sem
ator Hearst's successor will be q Repub-
lican. the pair may be broken. Should
Senator Hearst die the complication may
increase.
