THE GROCERS' PICNIC.
1t Gives Promise of Being an Ex-
tenSive Affair.

The grocers' picnic occurs tomorrow.
1t will be held at Bay st. Louis, and it
is expected that 5000 people will attend.
A meeting of the various committees
having the arrangements in charge was
held last night in the Lumber Exchange.
The chairmen made their reports, all of
which were encouraging. and demon
Strated that the committees were chosen
with rare good Judgment. This morn
ing finely uniformed band will parade
the streets and by the footing of
their horns tell the good people of
the city to make ready for tire sport to-
morrow. The committee on badges last
night reported that 1000 badges had
been purchased for the members of the
association and their families, also that
forty had been purchased for the use of
the officers and Judges. The latter's
are very elaborate. The committee on
privileges reported that it had been i'm
portuned with great deal of ardor by
the owners of wheel of fortune to be
allowed to place their game of chance
on the picnic grounds. The committee
stated that although the association was
in need of all the funds 1t could honest
ly secure, it did not think that
wheel of fortune was in keeping with
grant the privilege.
The programme of athletic games was
discussed at length, and a few minor
changes were made in the one that has
been printed and circulated. The
Judges of the various events were also
given their instructions, and beyond
doubt everything will go off like clock
work. The programme of athletics gives
promise OF some nrst-class contests,
and the list of entries shows the
names of the best amateur athletes
in the Twin Cities. In the evening
there will be session of pyrotechnics,
the association having purchased over
$500 worth of the latest and most im-
proved rockets, etc. The first train
leaves the union depot at o'clock to-
morrow morning and then at short i'll
teryals during the day. The first for
the city from the lake will leave Bay
st. Louis at 4:15 p. H.. and the last one
at IL. This will give the pIcnickers an
entire day to enjoy themselves,

BELDEN AND ELTING.
MinneapoIitans Hope to See the
Former Hailed ChamDiOn

Today will wind up the tennis tourna-
ment at Hotel ST. Louis, Minnetonka.
The PLAYING yesterday was not for the
championship, except one match in the
morning, doubles between Belden-
Wallace and w. Wrenn-Gardner Bel
den and Wallace play together like
machines. They had no difficulty in
winning the first set, 6-2. In the second
set they seemed careless until the
scorer had called 81 for their oppo-
nentS. Then they settled down and
won, rs. This was another victory of
afternoon Belden and Wallace met
Wrenn and Jayne in the finals for the
championship. Four sets were played,
and the work or both teams were bril-
liant. Belden and Wallace again won
the championship, which they have held
for two years-G-3, 81, 4-6, 6-3. Wrenn
and Jayne also played an exhibition
match with Elting and Ryerson, the
latter winning the first set and the
second being called a draw. Citing is
the champion of the Northwest since last
year. The last thing before dinner he
met RyerSOa. the winner of the recent
Chicago tournament IN all exhibition
game. Citing had comparatively easy
tHliiS III IL III uCIedllUg hyCISUIl. Ill
the afternoon Hale beat Gardner in the
consolation singles. ca, 6-2. The feat
ure of the afternoon was the exhibition
match between Ryerson and Beiden.
1t was expected to show the compare
tive merits OF Belden and Citing. Ryer-
son gave Belden a stiff game but was
defeated, 81, 62, 6-3.
Today there will lie some consolation
matches, but the event OF the day. and
tie closing event of the tournament
will be the match between Citing and
Belden. Elting is the champion of last
year. The showing made by Belden in
the match with Ryerson yesterday
afternoon makes the Minneapolis ten
mis- crankS feel like bowling for Joy.
But they will postpone any such demon
strations until after the match of today.
They have great hopes, however, of
Belden pulling out winner. Should
he win the championship against Citing
today the Minneapolis men will send
him TO Newport to meet the cracks of
the East in the national tournament.

Statistical BOardman.

President A. j. Boardman, of the park
board, appeared before the board of
equalization yesterday in the capacity
of a public educator. The commissioner
has been making study of tax statis-
tics and desired to impart some of the
information he had CLEANED in that di-
rection to the equaliZing board. MI.
BOardman quoted any number of COM
petitive figures based OH his knowledge
of the assessments made in Minneapo-
lis and Chicago. The property valua
ton in the latter city is but two-thirds
greater than the local valuation, yet the
population of Chicago is more than six
times as great as that of Minneapolis.
Chicago also supports a police force
nearly eight times as large as the Mill
neapolis force and employs nearly six
times as many school teachers. Mr..
Boardman thinks there is something
radically wrong in the system of valua
ton in force in this state. Minneapolis
and St. Paul pay nearly half the taxes
of the state.

Mother Superior in Court.

Mother Superior Jane Frances, of st.
Mary's hospital, was cited to appear in
the probate court yesterday to give tes-
timony concerning the estate of the late
Michael Mcdonald, who died at that in
stitution last February. The deceased
left $1,000 in cash. which he beQueathed
to priests ana Catholic institutions. The
will was protested by Bridget Dean. his
daughter. On appeal to the district
court the will was revoked and Mrs.
Dean made sole legatee and admins
traitor. OF the 81, 900 but 1882 was turned
over-hence the inquiry. The mother
superior now produced bill charging
Mcdonald $500 for board while at the
hospital, 500 medical attendance, S25
for liquors, S25 for medicine. SIS for
laundry, SIS funeral expenses, S25 legal
expenses in drawing the will and S25 for
extra night attendance. The probate
court duly filed the testimony, which
may be used as the basis of further
action IN another court to recover the
money.

was a tough town then. There
he acquired the excessive use Of
intOXicants and narcotics. The habits
became so fixed upon him that he was
often as man bereft of reason, and In
that condition, was considered, with
reason. dangerous man. He con-
sumed inordinate quantities of opium,
by smoking, and of morphine. admins
tered hypodermically. He Yas SO con-
tinually under the influence of the
drugs that he could not be said to be
wholly responsible for his actions. A
short time ago he took the now popular
bichloride of gold treatment and cure
was effected, so complete cure that he
was nothing like the Jasper johnson of
old. He seemed about to begin a new
life and make use of his undoubted tai
ents. 1t is the regret of every one who
knew him that he did not live to redeem
himself. The remains will probably be
brought to Minneapolis for burial.
