WITHOUT HORN BLOWING.
How One Minneapolis Industry
Has Grown Up Quietly.

How One Minneapolis Industry
Has Grown Up Quietly.
One of the most promising business
enterprises in Minneapolis has grown
up without any horn footing or secret
meetings of the B. M. A. 1t is the man
ufacture of what is called compo-
board. Readers of the GLOBE are al
ready familiar with the character of
compo-board, and with the purposes
for which it is available. One of the
additional claims made for it is that it
offers great resi- Stence to fire and Is not
damaged by water. The strawboard
composing its outside layer can be cas-
lily soaked, so that it is impossible to
burn it, and when dry again is absolute
ly uninjured. The company has done
no soliciting, either by travelling men
or by advertising, aside from mail
ing number of small samples to
builders, and, although the present out
put Of the factory is about $1,000 square
feet per day, the present orders for the
board Will require two months running
day and night to fill. The demand for
the material has been so urgent that
the company has been compelled to
manufacture the article while the build
ings were being erected, and, although
the plant is far from being in complete
sold and delivered over 225.000
square teet. The factory build
ings are located at Hopkins.
They will cover when completed
about five acres of ground. Forty-five
men are now employed. The general
office of the company is in the Bank of
Commerce building. 1t was learned at
the company's office yesterday that over
100000 square feet Of the board is de-
sired by Chicago builders if it can be
delivered during February. 1898. Plans
are being prepared for the enlargement
of the plant to a capacity for 100000
square feet per day, giving employment
to over 500 men.

THE GOLD PRIZE WINNERS.

"CoIumbia Heights" the Name
Chosen for the New Manufa ctur-
ing and Residence District in
Northeast Minneapolis From
2,281 Names.
The directors of the Minneapolis In
prOvement Company Northeast met
yesterday and made their first, second
and third choice for the name of their
plant and property, in accordance with
the advertisements that have been pub
lished during the last few months.
Nearly tWenty-three hundred names
were sent in. Columbia Heights, pro-
posed by Olive Louise Thornburgh,
S15 East Eighteenth street, Minneapo-
lis, was selected as first choice, which
entities the propoSer to the $4,000 prize
in gold. Fairview Park, proposed by G..
w. Taylor, 215 Ninth street, South Min
neapolis, was selected as secoud choice
prize in gold. and Hazel Heights. sent
in by Mrs. VIM. w. Redfeld, 1877 Port
land avenue, Minneapolis, was selected
as third choice. which entities the author
to the $4,000 prize in gold.
Columbia Heights was first choice on
account Of being an appropriate name
in many respects, among which. partic-
ularly, being that the enterprise was
started in the year of the Columbian
dedication, and which will be fully upon
its feet before the close of the Worlds
Fair year that America Is now prepar-
ing to celebrate. A number of other
good names were proposed, and selec-
ton was no easy task. There were
over 1,600 different names proposed, the
balance of the 1890 being repetitions.
This new manufacturing and resi-
dence district promises to be not only a
very lively, but also an important de-
VelOpment in Minneapolis.

MORSE PAPER.
Indication That Satisfactory
Settlement Is Being Effected.

Indication That a Satisfactory
Settlement Is Being Effected.
Public interest in the Morse case has
abated. 1t experienced slight and
temporary revival yesterday because of
the arrival in Minnea polls of A. How
ard, of Stafford Springs, Conn. Mr..
Howard has come to Minneapolis to
look after some trust funds which were
handled by George A. Morse. One
newspaper. which has been trying to
prove George A. Morse guilty in spite
of judge and jury, has said that the
Morse trouble would be brought to the
attention of the grand jury. No such
action has been taken as yet. Interested
parties say nothing Of the sort
will be done. The holders OF
this paper have become even more
reticent than they we're when the stories
involving the validity of the paper were
first printed. Their refusal TO discuss
the matter now is interpreted as mean
ing that a settlement satisfactory to all
concerned is being effected. They are
not all the sort of men to remain abso-
Iutely quiet unless they were in a fair
way to gain by it.
The papers which were missing from
the court house files in case to which
George A. Morse was party have been
returned. Clerk Terrell says they were
returned to him by an attorney whose
name he is not at liberty to divulge.
The man who returned the papers was
not party to their disappearance.

MINNEAPOLIS.
ELECTION CONTESTS.
Those of the Aldermen Are AL.

Those of the Aldermen Are AL
ready in Progress.
The election contests are on in ear
nest now. Those of would-be aldermen
are in the hands of the district
court. Judges Smith and Hooker
took them up yesterday morning,
and began the appointment of referees
20 examine them. The attorneys for the
men who seem, on the face of the re-
turns, to be elected, disputed the juriS-
1iction of the district court over alder
manic contests.
Their point was that aldermanic con-
tests must be passed upon by the city
council. Judge Smith remarked that,
as far as the charter was con cerued, that
point had already been decided in the
various whisky cases, in which it had
been held that the general law applied
to the city, and he thought the election
law would also. Ben Davenport and
Oryille Rhinehart appeared for the con-
testants. while Frank Nye argued for
the respondent, SkOog, and Attor-
ney Howard for McAlliSter. Mr.. Nye
argued that his client had not been
given sufficient time, in fact, that the
contests had not been properly insti-
tuted. 1t was admitted that the court
could not assume to correct what ap-
peared to be errors in the law. The mo-
ton was made that the action be dis
missed, as there was no provision for
an answer by the defendants, and the
further reason that the court had no
jurisdiction. The errors appeared to be
that in referring to the previous sections
in the law the wrong numbers are given
to the sections referred to, so that there
is no meaning. The motion to dismiss
was denied.
The law provides that each party to a
contest shall choose referee, and that
those two shall choose third, under the
approval of the court. In the McAllls
ter-Dwyer case, from the Tenth ward,
Dwyer chose Charles A. Cornman and
McAllister Charles II. Howard. These
two finally agreed upon G. r. Fix, a
Prohibitionist, as the third. In the
SKoog- Cheney contest from The Eleventh
ward, Skoog chose G. H. Babcock and
Cheney, Orville Rinehart. l.. j. Won
Fossen was taken as the third. The
McAllister-Dwyer recount will begin
Monday afternoon in the city hall, and
the SkOogCheney case Wednesday
afternoon. Reports of peculiar and
doubtful ballots will be returned to the
district court for final hearing.

The Jumbo Pumps.

Although the pump investigation
ended in the embarrassing of the jun
DO pumps, the water department has
occasion to feel annoyed quite regu-
iarly. Other city institutions are also
disconnected by these famous Jumbos.
Early yesterday morning the pump at
the North side station broke down, and
the fire department felt considerably
alarmed. The big pump was total Y
disabled, though 1t was stated yester-
day afternoon that the break had been
remedied and that the pumping would
go on as before. The threads OH one of
the studs on the compromising or high
duty cylinder had been stripped COM
bletely under the enormous pressure to
which the air cylinders are subjected.
The reserve Jumbo could not be start
ed, for that is also in bad condition.
The West side station was accordingly
started.

NO TRUANCY SCHOOLS.

Superinte ndent Jordan Says They
Would Do More Harm Than
Good.
Some people have been advocating
the establishment of truancy school, a
separate school for boys who will not
attend the regular public schools. Supt.
Jordan speaks to the point on the sub
ject thus:
II consider that such school would
be more likely to do harm than good,
unless managed perfectly. To take a
boy out of his school and put him into
an incorrigible school brands him as a
bad boy. Where he associates with
other boys equally bad, where Is the
chance of making him good?
''If the boy is truant, what means
have we for getting him to attend better
than we now have? If he will not 60 to
the common schools would he go to a
truancy school?
"On the other hand, If the boys are
taken to the truancy school and boarded
there, you simply establish another re-
formatory. The reform schools of the
state are not success; they do not re-
form. They are prisons, not schools"

TAMMANY GROWLs.
Resolutions for the PerusaI of
DemOcpatjc Aldermen


At a meeting of the Third Ward Tam
many society, held at Tammany head
quarters, 427 Washington avenue north,
Friday evening, the following resolu-
tions were unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That we. as a Democratic soci-
ETY., have heard with regret of coutem.
plated coalition between certain elements in
the Republican and Democratic ranks in the
city council. with view to division of the
official spoils pertaining to the dominant
faction i'll that body. That, in this connec-
ton. we assert our belief that no party can
long maintain its partisan standing which
forsakes its principles for the vain-glorious
pursuit of official "rainboW-chasing, and the
barely possible official preferment of one or
two of its members at the expense of all
party dignity and standing; therefore, be it
further
Resolved. That we urge upon the Demo.
cratic members of the city council to go into
caucus as Democrats, present a party ticket
in the first meeting of the council for the
new year, and support that ticket by manly
presentment of its merits; that we submit
that any other course than this can be de-
nominated nothing else than party heresy
and forebodes disaster and party compro-
mise. Better honorable defeat than ques-
tionable victory. M. BREsLAUER,
g. +. MCALLIsTER, President.
Secretary.

Luxurious Surroundings I'm Rail-
way Travel, az Described in the
Northwest Architect for NoVem-
Der.
The limited train now run by the
North Western line between the Twin
Cities and Chicago, leaving MinneapO-
lis 1880 D. m. and St. Paul $40 D. M,
arriving Chicago at $3.50 a. H., is mar
vel of convenience and comfort, and is
appreciated only by the fortunate
travellers over this popular line. The
train is equipped with private cOmpart-
ment cars and Pullman and Wagner
new style siXteen-section sleepers.
These private compartment cars are
new feature in railway travel, and THE
NorthW Western Line" with its charac-
teristic enterprise is the first to intro
duce them to our travelling public.
The cars are beautifully finished in
natural woods, are luXuriantly uphol-
stored and lighted with gas. Each COM
partment is provided with complete tot
let arrangements, and berths cost no
more than in ordinary sleepers. This
'.NOrth-Western Limited" is also
equipped with Buffet Smoking and Lii
brary cars, furnished with luxurious
easy chairs, tables, writing desks, and
a well-selected library.
Railway travel, even in luxurious sur
roundings, can be made disagreeable
and unsatisfactory by the neglect and
boorishness of the attendants. but no
traveller over this line has ever been
found who could complain at the atten-
ton shown him by the polite and ac-
commodating officials Travellers going
East will find it very advantageous TO
go by this line, especially when close
connections are desired. as never within
the writer's experience has the train
failed to be always on time.

A BOY AND "A GUN
Matthew Hauck Shoots James
Pfeffer with a Target Gun.


A peculiar shooting affair occurred
yesterday morning, and there is ques-
ton whether it was accidental or inten-
tional. A number of little boys were
playing on Fourth avenue, near Ninth
street north, among them James Pfeffer,
aged five years, and Matthew Hauck, a
lad of sixteen years. The Hauck boy
had in his possession a target gun of
large Dimensions. He went to the
other side of the street. and. aim
ing the gun at little James Pfef-
fer, fired. The bullet struck the
boy at the base of the spinal
column and penetrated so deeply into
the flesh that a six-inch probe in the
hands of DR.. O'BrIen failed to reach 1t.
The doctor stated that the sciatic nerve
had been severed, and in his opinion the
boy would be lame for long time, and
possibly for life.
Young Hauck was arrested in the
afternoon and locked up at the central
station He says he did not mean to hit
young Pfeffer. He lives with his parents
at 910 Fifth avenue north, and the VIC
tim lives at 9l2 Fourth aYen ue north.
