Henrik lbsen was born in 1928 at the
village of Skien. His father, mer-

him apprenticed to an apothecary
in the shipping town of Grim

Norway. Here ne shows his uncOnylv-

attention to the young ladies' OF the

writes in quick succession Il the
historic dramas-'The Warriors of Hell

contrasts the lawless but magnificent
past with the meek and mediocre pres

ut is the curse of small nations that
they do not dare to recognize their
great men until the great world has
found them out. Thus they could not
believe that both Bjornson and lbsen
could reign at one and the same time In
Norway. BjOrnSon was already ac-
knoWledged, and there remained only to
discourage and kick Ibsen out. To this

ascribed much of his rancorous spirit"

George Meredith Explained.

Mrs. Martha Foote Grove lectured at
the residence of S. G. Gale last evening
on George Meredith" Mrs. Grove is
one of the best known educators in the
country. She was for several years
lady principal of Iowa college, at Grin
nell, 10. She now holds the chair of
literature in the new Chicago univer-
sty and is president of the Chicago
collegiate alumn8. Mrs. Groves lee
ture was an explanation of the merits
of George Meredith, the English novel
list. Meredith is little known i'll this
country, even among the readers of the
best literature. His writings are so
deeply metaphysical and his literary
style so turgid that he is not popular
with the busy American who reads
merely as a pastime. The proceeds of
last nights lecture will go toward send
ing some deserving young woman to
Europe for study.

nature line, were found upon his person.

urer. the matter of manager came up
and naturally, with it, the name of Winn
Bracket, the present incumbent. He
gave the board to understand that he
would accept if his salary were raised
5000 year. which is 500 more than the
superintendent of police getS,and makes
a total of $500 a year.
The matter of choosing manager
was left in the hands of the executive

MINNEAPOLIS.
NOTE AND COMMENT.

EX-Ald. j. C. Sterling made a remarkable
record for himself when he had a seat in the
council. He is keeping up his record as
poundmaster of the Eighth and Thirteenth
wards. Last month he arrested zone I'M
known COW, and charged the animal fifty
cents which he turned into the city treas
uTy. II IS well that the eX-aldermen are pro-
vlded for. just sec how John BrGeshaber is
distinguishing himself as transfer agent for
the street railway company.
The steed Danny is still for sale Won't
somebody please take him off the city's
hands: Danny is good horse. Ii is true he
is rather heavy eater for an equine that
does no work. but his other good qualities
more than offset this 1ault. Step right up,
gentlemen, and drop in your little BIDS 1t
will be hard for Reese to part with him, but
this world is chock-full of trlbulation and he
will have TO swallow his sorrow.
1t was stated last night that there was
dark horse in The field for the position of
SUPERINTENDENT of police. 1t can't be Danny.
for he is Il bay. Perhaps it is some diStin-
gulshed colored man. There is no telling,
you know, for the Republicans do like to ca
ter to the colored vote.
The council last night decided to build a
new quarantine hospital near the site of the
old one. 1t was intimated that if the St
I-ouis ark peope insisted upon KICKING tney
would be placed in the hospital and kept
from doing further harm.
The Grays are apparently endeavoring to
monopo!ize the city and all its Offices. There
is Aid. Gray. of the Thirteenth ward, who
has hold-over ticket good for two years.
and last night Il James w. Gray was appoint
ed meat inspector. These are by no means
all the Grays, however.for Yesterday William
Gray was sent 10 the workhouse 10 serve the
city for a term Of forty days for being a
common drunkard: Thomas Andrew Gray
was given sixty days for vagrancy, and last
night Il tough-looking fellow named Charlie
Gray was arrested for stealing all overcoat.
Thus do the great family of Grays sweep
everything before them.
