Anna Peterson is a domestic, and has
been working on Canada street She
Is about thirty years old, and her par
ents live in Polk county, near Valley
postot1ice. Yesterday Anna concluded
that she would depart from this lower
sphere ere the colder winds of old
BOreaS made living uncomfortable. 1t
seemed to her that drop from the
Wabasha street bridge to the railroad
tracks below would be as effect
i've as anything for her removal
from mundane troubles, and about l D.
m. she was noticed looking over the side
Of the bridge. The people passing
thought she was only watching the cars
moving below, but soon she began to
climb over the railing, and was lust on
the point OF dropping when three men
seized her and pulled her back to the
floor OF the bridge. Officer Banker came
up, and, as she would not speak. took
her to the drug store at the corner of
Fourth and Wabasha. City Physician
Hanley was called, who ordered her
taken to the female department at the
central station. After time she grew
calmer and told her name, and said that
she has become tired of living. as men
are constantly breaking into her room
at night aid terrorizing her. By the
doctors order size was taken to the
county Jail to await examination in the
probate court as to her sanity,

for the great crowd in the vicinity.
Every few minutes there would be a
large flash which for au instant would
throw a light paling that of the fire,
and some ten minutes before the wires
were all cut little balls of blue light
would dance along the small wires for
the space of block in either direction,
making fine display. 1t was another
strong argument for the burylng of all
the wires.

stated yet, but persons about last even

stated that they believe the building is
damaged to greater amount than $l0,-

The Drews at the Metropolitan
Last Evening.


Mr.. and Mrs. Sidney Drew began
their three nights engagement at the
Metropolitan last night with very
good house. The Drews are not stran-
gers to the theater-going people of st.
Paul, but they added to their laurels by
last nights performance, and were
worthy the name OF Drew, SO distin-
guiShed name in the stage world.
The double bill began with the ex-
quisite one-act play, I'm Honor BOund,' -
in which MIR. and Mrs. Drew's ability
for difficult work had an excellent OPP
portunity for expression.
THAT Girl From Mexico" as the
Drews play it, is one of the most enter
tanning plays OH the stage. The COM
pany in many respects has been
strengthened since its last appearance
in st. Paul. The minor characters are
we'll played. ami Sidney Drew, the linn
ber-tongued, lnimitable Sidney Drew,
as Jack Randolph, is fairly convulsing.
Mrs. Drew, as the ferociouS Diabella, is
consistently terrible. The play is re-
peated tonight.

courageous Policemen,

GAS general rule | am not much of
kicker, but saw little incident last
Sunday which | think should be made
public, so that the citizens and people
of st. Paul may know what the brave (?)
policemen are doing while we are
nightly being relieved of our valuaDles.
While standing on the corner of Sew
enth and Robert streets, listening to the
music of hand organ, the patrol wagon
came dashing up. The policeman got
out and grabbed the poor musician, who
was quite young and totally blind, and
told him he must go with him. When
he found out who it was, he begged not
to be taken to jail, saying he had done
nothing wrong, and that he must stay
where he was until boy came and took
him home, as he could not find his way.
The policeman roughly pushed him into
the wagon, put i'll his organ and started
off, while the poor boy was crying. AS
they started to go the policeman Oh the
walk picked up the blind mans cup and
threw it into the wagon, while the one
inside, probably the wit (?) of the force,
asked some one to drop in nickel. But
as no one but bootblack laughed at
him, | don't think he was appreciated.
Is this justice? A SUBSCRIBER.
