The two deaths by drowning 6#er-
day again calls attention to the fact that
there should be some previsi0H made.
for public bathing place. AS soon as
the weather becomes warm cases of
drowning while bathing are reported.
The last spell of warm weatherresulted
in the death of three persons, and yes
terday added two more Ito the i list.
1t there was some place to whlclnciti-
zens could go or send their children to
battle there would certainly he less
deaths from drowning. AT the last ses-
sion of the legislature a step in the
right direction was taken by the passage
of a bill providing for the issuance of
$1,000 bonds for the erection of public
bath. This, however, was only. on pa
per; nothing was or has been donei
practical pay. The drownings yesterday
were:
Freddie Sprague; the fifteen-year-old
son OF Capt. |. b. Sprague, was drowned
accompanied by three companions,
drove to the lake. about three miles
from the Robert street bridge, for a
swim. None of the party could swim,
and, as Sprague was seized with cramps
as soon as he entered the water, his
comrades could render him no assist
ance. Frank Conley and James Dougan,.
who live near the scene of the drown
ing, recovered the body, which was
taken to the residence of his parents
255 Sherman st.
Peter Smith, the eight-year-old son of.
James Smith, resident of Channel
street, was drowned in the river near
the sawmill in West st. Paul yesterday
of 1,I
several companions. went IN bathing
between the main bank of the river and
the island near the mill. The water is
not very deep, but young Smith was
seized with cramps. and his compan-
ions being frightened could render him
no assistance. The body has not been
recovered.

SIGN OF WEAKNESS.
The Assembly and It's Action
on the Como Electric
Extension.
A Resolution Recalled Which.
Had Been Sent to the
Mayor.
Workingmen. Pass Rasping
Resolutions on the Home
stead Outrage.
Pickens, the Murderer of
John Smith, Arrested
in Montana.

There were but six members of the
assembly present when the city clerk
called the roll at O'Clock last night.
The pay rolls for the street and sewer
force, amounting to $40, 522 21; court
house and city hall, s697.5O, and general
bridge, sewer and local assessment.
Sl.SS5.25, were passed. The ordinance
increasing the amount of certificates of
Indebtedness for the street and sewer
fund from $1,000. authorized at recent
meeting, to $4,000, could not be passed
owing to there not being the necessary
three-fourthS vote present.
Assemblyman johnson, who must
either be a mind-reader or stands very
close to the mayor, asked that the or
dlnance instructing the. street railway
company to complete the line into
Como park before July Is be recalled.
The ordinance had passed both branches
OF the council and iAs.now in the hands
of the mayer. MIR. johnson said he had
been informed that under the ordinance
granted the strnet railway company
they were not compelled to lay lines on
streets where sewers had not been
constructed. He intimated the
mayor was going to veto the
ordinance, and, in order to not
handicap that official in the opinion
of the public. insisted that the ordi-
nance be recalled. There was some ques-
ton as to whether the assembly could
do any business aside from that men
toned in the call for the meeting, but
MIR. johnson pleaded so hard that the
motion to recall was finally put to a
vote and carried.
1t was claimed at the meeting of the
COMMITTEES Oh streets from the board of
aldermen on Saturday last that the pro-
ylSO in the ordinance which required
the construction of sewers on all streets
before, the company could be compelled
to construct lines had been waived in
this particular case. The waving of
this clause Mr.. Lowry now denies, and
claims when the sewer is constructed
the line will be extended.

THE LIQUOR MEN
Will Be Closely Watched by the
New ReformerS.

New RefOrmerS.
A meeting Of the license committees
from both branches of the council was
held in the mayors Office yesterday aft
ernoon. In attendance were Assembly
men DAILY, Reardon and Sandell, and
Aid. Zimmerman. The meeting was
called by Mr.. Daily at the request Of
several liquor dealers, who complain
that wholesalers in the same line of
trade are doing retail bust
ness. The committees On license
from the old council had an
understanding with the wholesale mer-
chants by which they were not to sell
except to retail dealers, and were thus
exempted from paying license. This
plan was said to be in good working
order in Minneapolis, and the whole
sale men here argued. it was not fair to
make them pay $1,000, as it would give
outsiders the best of it. The law, how
ever, says that all persons who sell
liquor shall take out license, and the
members OF the new council, who were
elected as ''reformers,' are in guam
Diary as to what steps to take.
The question Of looking little closer
into the qualifications of bondsmen who
went on saloonkeepers' bonds was dis
cuSsed, and in the future this matter
will be given attention.
The meeting was entirely informal, at
least so one of the committee said, and
nothing definite was decided upon. The
same plan in force under the committee
of the old council, as regards the whole
sale men, will be continued, but close
watch is to be kept on wholesale dealers
who sell to consumers direct.

CAUGHT AT LAST.
Murderer of John Smith in the
Clutches of the Law.

Murderer of John Smith in the
Clutches of the Law.
"A telegram was received last night
announcing the arrest, in Montana. of
Denuis PickenS, who is wanted in this
city for murder.
Friday, March IS. last, Pickens, who
was employed at the Metropolitan cafe
as waiter, had a dispute with J. Smith,
aiSo waiter, over plate of butter,
Which Smith took from tray carried
by I'icBens. Both men were colored,
ana as the eye-wltneSSeS to the affair
explained. "Pickens was little the
quickest with his razor" Smith was
terribly slashed by the instrument
welded by Pickens, the left side of his
his head nearly to the windpipe.
Smith was taken to the hospital and
died few hours afterward, being UNI
conscious to the time of his death. The
police were notified at once, a messen-
ger acquainting Capt. Cook of the
affray. For some reason the officer
started alone for the scene,
and during the excitement he
allowed Pickens to escape. Since that
time every effort has been made to ap-
prehend the murderer. Circulars and
letters giving full description of Pick
ems, accompanied by photographs,
were sent to all the principal cities
by ex-Chief Clark and eX-Chief of De-
tectives John j. O'Cnnnor. In Nav
werd was received that Pickens had
been seen in Butte, Mont. Another
batch of letters addressed to all the
larger cities in Montana and Wash
lngton, were sent out. and Pick
ems arrest is. undoubtedly due
to tue efforts of the police officials who
resignedOn June Z. No telegram had
been received at police headquarters
last night about the arrest of .Pickens-
at least, no information was given out
if there had been.

A LITERARY VENTURE
Shortly to BE Embarked in the
49, Twin Cities.


: Twin Cities.
3 The probabilities point to the early
establishment of a literary publication
in the Twin Cities. Just what the
scope will be, and just what the line of
literary work that will be undertaken
are purely matters of conjecture.
However, the report is given
credence by people who are manifestly
in, position to know whether Oh not
there is any foundation to the report.
Mrs. c. E. Severance, lady possessed
OF distinctive literary abilities will I'M
ianestionably be actively associated
with the venture. She is the wife
of the law partner of Senator Da-
Wis. and is a writer of merit.
Again it is said that H. L. Gordon
of Minneapolis, who has penchant for
poeticai writings, and who is quite
wealthy, is also connected with the
project. and it is known that he has
been in st. Paul frequently of late, and
that his missions here have been to con-
suit Mrs. Severance. Both Mr.. Gordon
and Mr.. Severance decline to be inter-
viewed upon the subject.
