ODDS AND ENDS.

DR.. :. G. Smith has been doing some tall
hustling the past week. He recently spent
few days fishing at Long Prairie, Todd
county, and while there arranged with Mrs
Lee, the wife of Banker Lee, to send twenty
i've poor children from st. Paul for visit
in the country. Mrs. Lee undertook to get
together a committee of ladies of Long
Prairie to provide accommodation for the
children, who have been selected by DR..
Smith from among the most deserving and
poores, people in The city. The children
will tomorrow go to Long Prairie ir charge
OF the city missionary of the Peoples
church over the Great Northern, that COM
pany having provided free transportation.
Dr. Smith is in hopes of making ar
ransements with ladies in other localities,
and in that way he believes he can procure
fresh air" for large number of children.
who otherwise these torrid days would be
confined to the purlieus of ill-vertilated and
squaiid haoitations. The vigor and effect
iveness of the work taken up by Dr. Smith
are highly credItable to that gentleman.

Chief Garvin and the reform aldermen
want something to co when they waste so
much time in hunting for records which
never existed. Chief Garvin charged some
one with having purioined records prior to
his taking Office. and, inferentially, the ex-
chief was charged with knowing more about
it than he cared to disclose. Several weeks
have been wasted over IAN investigation"
despite the repeated statements of the ex-
chief that the records claimed to be missing
never existed. 1t seems to be O desperate at
tempt to cast an aspersion on the character
of John Clark, and is deserving of the sever
est censure.
Gen. Seely says he is going to be out of the
state during the electoral campaign. The
sooner he gets out the better it will be for
him, as his fellow Republicans with an eve
for office will make it decidedly hot for de-
liyering that speech against the Nelson
ticket.

Citizens who use the Third street bridge.
and have to pass up that part of the thor
oughfare from the bridge to Broadway. are q
long-suffering lot Formerly the street was
almost impossible by being monopolized by
teams receiving Or shipping goods at the
various business houses. To give pedestrians

of the street, and now the pedestrian is cov-

heavy traffic on this part OF the street, the
sprinkler could be used twice or thrice day
with advantage.
Manager I. j. Price, of the Kellogg News
paper company. gives it out definitely that
this establishment is not to be moved from
St Paul to Minneapolis. II is. however,
probable that branch Office of the COMPANY
may be established in the Mill city.

1t is exceedingly probable that the pro-
jected trip of the state editorial association
10 Denver will have to be dropped. There
has been some delay III making ARRANGEMENTS
with railroad companies and, as q conse-
quence, the editors will not be able to take
the trlp,owing to the pressure of the electoral
campaign. president Pease says he will make
the trip if he has TO do it alone.
