THE CABLE BROKE.
An Elevator Accident That For
unaseIy Was Not Serious.

An Elevator Accident That Fort
unaSeIy Was Not Serious.
Too heavy load was taken on the
freight elevator in the Pioneer Press
building at $3.50 O'Clock yesterday, and
the result was an accident of a not very
serious nature. Eight employees of the
st. Paul & Duluth Railroad company
were engaged in placing lot of furni-
ture on the seventh floor of the building.
Three large bookcases weee put on the
elevator at once, and together with the
men it made such heavy load that the
cable broke and precipitatcd the elevator
from the third story to the basement.
1t came down with a crash sufficient to
break the bookcases almost into splin-
tiers. and of course the men were very
badly shaken up. Only one. however,
was severely injured. His name is
Fred Ericsson, who had his right leg
broken. August Schornberg received a
fracture of the left ankle and Ole Lark
with was bruised about both legs.
Ericsson, Schornberg and Larkwith
were removed to the city hospital in
police patrol wagons. Julius Schoer
and Charles Lipka, the other men who
were in the falling elevator, were only
slightly hurt.

The Bethel Dedication.

The dedication of the new floating Bother
mission will take place the first Sunday in
May with appropriate services. This mis-
sion, which has been for many years under
the management of MIR. Pierce, its present
chaplain, has enlisted the sympathy and sup
port OF all denominations During the
week following the dedication the
ladies of the different churches of the CITY
will serve MONDAY lunches in the new Man
haitian block. Every church in the city will
have share in the work. and it is hoped by
this means to raise all the money necessary
to defray the expenses of the new chapel
and in the way which will be least felt by
those who patronize the enterprise. The fol-
lowing ladies are IN charge: Mrs. r. NJ.

nesota if No Tights" Go.
That the public is not in favor of the
antl-tights bill now in the legislature is
evident from the vast number of promi-
nent ladies and gentlemen who have
every night this week thronged to the
Metropolitan opera house to witness the
gorgeous production of 1.-The Crystal
Slipper" i'll which the display of limbs
encased in silk tights forms an impor-
tant feature. Yesterday at the after
noon and evening performances
every seat was occupied, and
late corners could not obtain
admission. 1t is estimated that
with this evenings performance be-
tween fifteen and sixteen thousand per-
sons will have witnessed the play in
this city. This record was only beaten
during the week when the theater
opened with the BoStonians, the event
being in itself remarkable enough to
draw large audiences who had for two
years been deprived of the pleasure of
visiting properly equipped opera
house. Managers Scott and Henderson
were very jubilant last evening over the
enormous business done by the COM
pany in the middle of the season, and
felt that the tastes of the public did not
demand any censorship Of the stage.
Mr.. Scott last evening received a dis
patch from Manager George Floyd. of
the Bostonians, stating that If the anti
tights bill went into effect he could not
bring his company to the opera house
next season. 1t would be little short of
a public calamity if such artistic COM
panies should be unable to present
their productions to the lovers of music
and drama in the Northwest. On top
of this comes dispatch from Chicago
as follows:
In view of the fact that the Minnesota
state senate has passed the bill forbidding
the appearance of women il tights on the
stage in that state, and the possibility that
the house may pass it also, making it a law,
The McCaull Opera company has Cancelled

graphed the StPaul manager at whose house

were married Christmas day, 1887, at

fore Judge Egan yesterday An

AN EMPHATIC PROTEST
Made by the Fire Commissioners
Against the Proposed Cut.

A special meeting of the board of
fire commissioners was held Friday aft
ernoon, and an emphatic protest was
made against the passage of any bill by
the Ramsey county delegation affecting
the fire department as to its appropra-
tons for current expenses for the year.
The bill passed by the senate allows
only 100000 for fire department pur-
poses, despite the detailed statement
submitted by the board showing that
S225,00O would tie necessary, this being
a decrease Of $4,000 over the previous
year. The detailed statement of the
purposes for which certain sums are re-
Oujred is AS follows.

Should the appropriation be limited
to S2O5, 900, it will be impossible to run
the department. as now constituted.
and the result will be the necessity for

toria and Ashland avenue; and the en-
CINE house at Hamline, which would he
salvage of $4,000, Or it would become
necessary to make a reduction in fire

ESTHETICS.
Difficulties IN the Way Of a Cultiva-
ton Of Love for the Beautiful.

Tho .I,'hctir Concert given by It.
Johns Musical society, at Columbia
/ Hall, Tuesday evening, was an odditv,
t. say the least, and the idea OF asso-
ciating those twin hcautics-womcn
and ilowor--in galaxy Of dazzling
splendor, Is certainly rropricty that
nom will dispute. 1t doubtless re-
suited. 10y procc>, OF evolution, from 4
pro, ngcd search for n novelty that
wou.l embrace clements against which
thcr" could he no possibility OF cavil :;
but, unfortunately the means of
uniting the truly aesthetic with plain
ly practical appliances at mortal
command for the development OF a
perfectly satisfactory result, are not
always available. and the slightest de
ticicncy in that respect is likely 10
lead L. that treachcrous step which is
said to take place at Il point cqui-
distant between the sublime and the
ridiculous.
Now it is admitted, Mt the outset,
Internationally and without mental
reservation, that the ladies who repre-
scented the flowers, Tuesday night, were
exqui>itely beautiful; but their beauty,
it must he as candidly confessed, WAS
by 10 means enhanced 10y a dra-
perry that concealed all but their angelic
faces. The canvas and paint, though
fashioned by artistic touch into a
scmblance Of the chief beauties of floral
life, were no adequate substitute for
the human form divine" about
which poets have sung and painters
ravcd through all the ages of time.
Then the admission of the male Gle
mcnt seemed to bc incongruous and
to jar harshly on nerves attuned to
aesthetic expectancy. When an Oscar
Wilde could not place the galIdy sun
flower on II permanently secure Ts-
thetic plane, how vain to expect that
by wave OF the wand OF the enchant
cd if not enchanting gardener, the ru-
bicand visages of men could be trans
formed into anything like objects of
beauty that would compare favOrably
with their surroundings. 1t requires
something more than the head to
maintain the dignity of manhood, as it
does that Of woman to enhance the
graCes of womanhoOd. All the powers
of the genii of the lamp could not rec
oncile with true aesthetics the idea
that the daiiodil should wear a beard
or that the hollyhock or sunhower
should sport mustaches. There seems
to be an incongruity in these parts
which does not apply when we come
10 the Man in the Moon, or the Spider,
who are expected. OF course, to be mon
strositics best viewed from distance.
Testing aside, the Guild afforded a
very unique entertainment. Every
body seemed pleased with it, and the
organ fund was increased nearly fifty
dollars.
