Newell Was Too sharn.

George R. Newell & Co. had suit on
trial this morning in which they got the
worst of the deal. Some time ago when

accept so cents on the dollar. Newell

GATHERING OF THE CLANS. "
1t Has Been So Successful That 1t
Will Be Repeated,

Recently the Caledonian club present
ed at the Lyceum to a packed house a
pageant called The Gathering of the
Clans" The people who were there
pronounced it the most magnificent
spectacle and the best all-arOund enter
tainment ever presented in the city;

of amusement in Minneapolis read of
the affair in the papers without wishing
be had been there. Friday night the
entertainment was repeated at the Met
ropolitan opera house, in st. Paul,
and evoked as much enthusiasm there
as it did IN Minneapolis. The success

it. Four performances will be given at
the Grand. in Minneapolis, Thursday.

be under the direction of Prof. j. A.
Walker, of Aberdeen, Scotland, who

will be tableauX of nations There will
be marches. But the feature will be

Sixth street. was formally dedicated

streets and constantly falling rain a
large number of people attended the
services. which were held in the new

an inviting appearance. Flowers of
various kinds, including mammoth
hydranga plants in full bloom. were
placed about the room in prOdigal pro-
fusion.
The dedication was conducted under
the personal supervision of Bishop

THE WAR Is OVER.
The Western Union Leaves the
North American Victorious.

The Western Union Leaves the
North American Victorious.
The Western Union has evidently
given up the fight, leaving the North
American in possession of the field. 1t
will be remembered that fierce battle
has been waged between the rival tele
graph companies over the possession of
the building on Washington avenue now
occupied by the North American. The
latter'S lease expired short time ago,
and the agents of the building leased it
to the Western Union, claiming that the
North American company had declined
to renew, thereby waving all right to
occupy 1t. The North American COM
pany, however, SAID it had not declined
to renew, and under the stipulatiOns in
the old lease refused to vacate, at the
same time Offering to make a renewal
of the lease. As possession Is
nine points of the law, it was
decided to carry the matter to the
courts, inasmuch as it was a pressing
necessity that the Western Union Sc
cure building, having been ordered to
Vacate its quarters in the city hall. 1t
seems, however. that the Western Union
has decided TO avoid unnecessary eX-
pense, for yesterday it procured lease
of the building formerly occupied by
the Security bank, at the corner of
Third street and Hennepin avenue.

Sale of Seats for the Big Concert
Notes of Progress.
The convention music committee held
a meeting yesterday and adopted the
style of folder that will be issued ad
vertiSing the convention. The folder
enumerates all the soloists, and an
nOunces that there will be speeches by
Chauncey NJ. Depew and William Nc
kinley. The committee did more. 1t
decided that the sale of tickets to
the convention concert shall be-
from tomorrow, at the Century
music store, at 9 in the morning. 1t is
expected that the rush will be so great
that some system for numbering ticket
purchasers should be reSOrted to. In
stead of getting up before daylight or
staying down town all night TO get i'll
line for the opening of the ticket sale,
purchasers can get their numbers OH
the Saturday preceding the opening of
the sale, that is next Saturday, and
Monday morning until 9 o'clock, the
hour when the sale will open. Yester-
day the convention committee took the
Masonic Quartette over to the hall TO
test the acoustics. They are reported
well nigh perfect. The music could ce
heard in all parts Of the big
hall, and the space fills" very
easily. The price of the tickets
will range from popular to aristocratic,
so cents, 81, $3.50 and 81. The music
committee wants 1900 singers to join in
the grand choruses. Any person who
thinks that he, or she, can sing is re-
quested to send name and address and

NO MORE EVENING TRIBUNE.
Readers Will Know 1t as the

Tribune's Evening Edition.
The Evening Tribune is no more.
That does not mean that there will
not be another issue of a paper at 5
o'clock bearing the name of the Trib-
une. 1t means that what has been
called the Evening Tribune will here
after be known as the evening edition Of
the Minneapolis Tribune. The two pa
perS have been merged more than ever.
HencefOTth they will occupy the same
editorial rooms as they have occupied
tie same business Office for some time.
The working forces of the two papers
will be consolidated, to what extent
cannot yet be told; but they will work
as one staff, in a measure. The man
agement has decided that few people
read both the Evening and Morning
Tribune, so the matter that appears in
Dne edition will run through all of that
day. This Will save composition bills.
1t is probable, also. that the merging
will do away with the employment of
some men now working in the editorial
departments of the two papers.

IF the Tribune finally eXtinguishes the
light of distinct evening paper that
has existed, under one name and another,
for nearly five years. 1t began life as
The Evening Star five years ago next
August. In few months it absorbed
The News, and lived for some eight or
ten months as the Star-News. Then
came a change in its feverish young life,
and it wandered through the city for
about six months as the Tribune-Star.
The Star fell then, and its name be-
eame the Evening Tribune. But it was
always a distinct evening paper. Now
its name is further abbreviated in the
Tribune, and it will live only as the
afternoon edition of morning paper.
While none of the employees of the
Editorial departments of the two papers
have, as yet, been dropped, one i'm
portant change in the positions of two
Of the men will go into effect tomorrow.
The city edilorship of all the editions
will be combined in one man. Charles

une, will trot in the ranks again. Harold

FOURNIER HAS RETURNED.
He Says Southwestern Canons
Now Hold Few Prc-Ristoric
Relics OF Value.


A. j. FOurnier, the artist, who was
one of H. Jay Smiths party in explor-
ing the far Southwest canon country for
relics of prehistoric ages to be exhibited
in the Minneapolis exposition art gal
lery this year, has returned. He says
that Smith and his party went into that
country not a bit too. soon. There is
very little left there now, although
when Mr.. Fournier came away two
other parties had just arrived on the
same mission. Colorado has man in
the canOns at the expense of the state
making a collection of relics for use at
the worlds fair. A party OF wise men
from the learned East arrived few
days before Mr.. Fournier left. He says
tnat those explorers will get little. Col
orado is just waking up to the import
ance of the ancient relics within her
borders, and will endeavOr to have that
section set aside as national park to
prevent anything being carried off.
FOurnier says that NordenSkjOld, the
young Norwegian about whose exploits
out there so much was said a few
months ago, took home with him a large
collection OF valuable curiositieS.
