And now comes the news of her I'M
timely death. The rushing, hurryng
life that our society women are COM
PEELED to lead is enough to break down
the strongest constitution. When these
burdens are laid upon the shoulders
of delicate, high strung, nervous wom-
all who is ambitions, as all such women
are, not only for them selves in So
cial way, but for their husbands po-
litically as well, the strain is fearful.
No woman in official circles but who
must be Oh the watch every moment for
fear that she may say or do something.
or leave something unSald or undnne
that may mar, perhaps ruin, her huS-
bands prospects politically. One WOm-
an in a ntighburing state is credited
with losing her husband the nomination
to the senate, when nomination was
equal TO an election. by quarrel over
the pattern for dress sleeve; and an
other with keeping her husband out of
the race as a possible candidate for the
presidency by her naughty and half
contemptuOuS treatment of the dOWdy-
looking wife of a congressman, but who,
all unknown to the possible. or rather
probable candidates wife, was the daugh-
ter of powerful faction leader in
her own party. Taking these facts into
consideration, it is no wonder that the
social leaders in political centerS are
under the lash, figuratively speaking,
from one years end to another, and
less wonder that we hear of their be-
coming invalids from nervous prostra-
ton or dying suddenly from heart fail
ure.
Is it not possible for US to get back
somewhat into the simpler living of
which we often hear? Is this mad rush
worth while, when like the car of
Juggernaut it is crushing the life out Of
our sweetest wOmanhOod, leaving homes
desolate, children motherleSs, husbands
widowed, when in the natural course of
nature these dear lives might be spared
to brighten and bless for years to come?

KNIGHTS OF THE TRANSIT.
Civil Engineers Delight in Solving
Reconcile Problems 4t


The Civil Engineers society held an
Interesting meeting in the society rooms
in the city building last evening. Over
a score of knights of the theOdolite and
transit instrument were present and
listened to the technical papers, in ad-
dition to discussing matters of impor-
lance. Forestry and the strength of
timbers were discussed to some extent,
and the secretary was asked to corre-
spond with the senators and represent
atives in congress from this state and
also with congressional committees and
urge them to secure appropriations to
prosecute work in that direction. G. +.
Loweth, G. ]. A. Morris and n. E. Ste
vens were named as committee to in
vestigate plan proposed to issue inter-
changeable cards of membership with
similar societies of civil engineers in
other cities.
W. Ii. Wood, who has spent five years
in railroad building in Mexico, read a
very interesting paper on the work done
in that line in the Mexican country. He
also explained the difficulties encoun-
tered by maps. He explained that the
gland, whence the capital to build them
chiefly comes. These plans are crude
and are not flexible enough to obviate
much useless expense. He told how
forty miles of road was built around 4
canyon to make general progress of
miles. The grades are so steep in places
that the rack system of cOgS Is used to
ascent the grades. Rack engines are
used on the grades alone, and other en-
gines are used on other parts of the line.
He also spoke of the filling of ravines
up solid witheStone, when iron trestles
could be used at much less expense.
The course of the river is often
changed, even by cutting a way
stated that it is very expensive to get
iron to the place needed. and for this
reason but little iron is used When
iron is used it is taken from England,
and is much heavier and more cumber-
some than needed. In some instances
the road in the mountains costs from
$50. 900 to 100000 per mile. The roads,
he said. are very crude and old-faSh-
toned affairs, and are often built up and
down grade without grading, as should
be done. The road he spoke of prin-
cipally is the one that is destined to
extend from Tampico, six miles from
the coast, to the City of Mexico. He
stated that preliminary survey is
made with great minuteness, and costs
in some instances $1,000 per mile, while
the permanent survey is more eXpen-
sive.
Charles Steiner, of Minneapolis, who
came to this country from Switzerland
about year ago, read paper on the
subject of utilizing the Minnehaha falls
water power. His plan is to husband
the water in lakes, and use it to gener-
ate power, and to construct system of
parks and fountains. He was asked
Several questions about his paper that
seemed to indicate that some of the
members did not agree with his figures
as to the expected profits in utilizing
the water.

II MAY CALL A..hALT.
Not Enough Money. to Pay
for Kenyon's Expert
Inquiries
Into the Books Of the Various
Offices in the City
Hall.
The Interview With the
Etopement Pursuer Was
a Fake.
Civil Engineers Exploit the
TechnicalitieS Of Their
Work.

Among other bills considered by the
board of aldermen committee yesterday
were two from M. D. Kenyon, public
examiner. One was for 500 and the
other for .S72. The claims were for
work done in examining books in the
city treasurer's office. Assistant City
Attorney Phillips said the money could
not be paid to Mr.. Kenyon, but would
have to be paid into the state treasury
and Kenyon could then draw the
amount from the state treasurer. Mr..
Kenyon said Harry S. Griswold, M. }.
Bell and himself had been doing the
work, and he thought under the resolu-
ton of the council ordering the work
the money would be paid to the people
doing the work. Mr.. Phillips said the
work was done under the law which
allowed not more than $500 to be paid
in any one wear for this kind OF work. MI.
Kenyon said he was glad to know this,
as he had been informed by the mayor
and other officials the expense for check
ing Up the books for the past ten years
would be paid by the city. If such work
was to come under the law allowing
only S600-to be spent each year, he would
stop checking when that amount had
been used up. The city attorney was
ordered to draw up the necessary reSo-
luton covering the amount OF the. two
bills presented into the state treasury.
The report of the health officer
showed l22 reports bad been made dur
ing January where garbage had not
been collected by the contractors. OF
this number seveaty-Seven complaints
had been withdrawn. This left forty
five complaints, and at % cents per com
plant would necessarily deduct Sl1.25
from the January bill of the contractors.
The claim of William F. Corrlgan for
$500 was recommended to pass. Corrl-
gan fractured his leg by falling on the
sidewalk on West Third street in April,
1892.
The claim of Rebecca S. CardoZa for
5000 damages was disallowed OH recon-
mendation of the city attorney. Thomas
Slater presented claim for $50 for use
of ground in the Seventh ward for two
election booths in the spring and fall
elections i'm 1890 and 1892. The claim
was marked o X by the alderman of the
ward, but the committee refused to pay
for the ground rent in 1890, and chopped
the bill in two, allowing Mr.. Slater $40.
This was done because in other claims
of like character the comptroller mad
drawn the line at charges maze IOr rent
of ground in 1890. Aid. Copeland said
/ was in favor of adopting Aid. Con-
ley's idea in the future, and that was,
where ground rent was demanded for
election booths, to place the structure
in the street and save expense. Claims
of NJ e.. Brown and w. S. Twombley
for ground rent for election booths
amounting to $50 each were recon-
mended to pass.

1T WAS a FAKE.

An EIopement Story Morning
Paper Borrowed From Chicago.
1t transpireS that the sensational
elopement case given so much specific
publicity in morning paper is fake
pure and simple. The paper IN ques-
ton went so far as to declare that the
brother of the girl that had
been declared to have eloped,
was at the Ryan hotel Sun
day, and a purported interview with
him was taken from the Chicago Trib-
une and published. The GLOBE merely
published Geographic information, and
inquiry at all the st. Paul hotels devel-
oped the fact that there was no such
person to be found as the pursuing
brother. He was not at any of the hotels
Dor has he been at any hotel in this city
at all. The following telegram clears
away the mystery:
New Haven. Conn.,, Feb. 4.-Israel
Ward, the banker referred to in to-
nights Chicago dispatches of the Lewis
Ward elopement, has been dead about
Ten years. Was at one time cashier
Of tile Second National bank of this
city. He left son and daughter of
about twenty and fifteen years of age.
The young lady has been in Network all
winter. Gossip at West Haven has it
that during the last summer young
man named Lewis paid marked atten-
ton to Miss Ward, but whether he is
the person alluded to in the dispatch
cannot be learned tonight. Wallace w.
Ward, the girls uncle, positively re-
fused to discuss the elopement matter.
There IS no bank in the town of West
Haven, and consequently no James
Lewis cashier thereof.

PARKS ARE ASSURED.
The Plats of Phalen, Ridgwood
and Cleveland Are
Drafted.
Another Exhibition of His Pres
ence by the Comp
trolier.

After all these years of perturbation
| and doubt, st. Paul is likely to have
few parks and breathing places for the
populace. The original act creating
| the park board could not stand the test
of the law, and the lands that
had been acquired under its
| provisions reverted back to the
original owners. The organic law that
| the board is working under now, how
ever. is constitutional. and the present
board is doing good work in acquiring
and developing parks. At the session
of the board held at the city hall last
evening the plats of the Cleveland, the
Ridgwood and the Phalen parks were
approved. They were drafted by the
city engineer. And the more important
tract is the Phalen park. 1t comprises
some 153 acres, and upon resolution
introduced by Commissioner Aberlee,
! the board of public works was directed
! to proceed with condemnatory process
| and to assess 60 per cent of the cost OF
! the park against the property benefited.
/ The balance, or 40 per cent, will be PAID
| from the city park fund.
The city attorney is decidedly cocky.
| He sent in communication in which it
was related that unless a more salts
factory explanation was made concern
ing the bill for 1920 purporting to be
connected with the construction of the
greenhouse at Lake Como. the bill
would not be paid. Commissioner
| Bredenhagen. of the board, stated that
the bill in question related III no way to
the original contract. After the Struct-
ure had been erected according to plans
/ and specifications, the board had de-
i clded upon certain improvements, and
| this bill was for this particular work.
| The. secretary was requested to call
upon Comptroller McCardy and give a
! detailed accounting.
A rather unique communication was
received from the geological gardens at
! DeS MoineS, To-, in which the board was
! solicited to purchase collection of wild
| animals from an elephant to monkey.
, The communication was placed on file
| without discussion.
The superintendent of parks submit
| ted his report and it was accepted and
placed on file 1t was accompanied by
| the monthly pay roll, amounting to
| Sl,113, and statement the contractor
erecting the dwelling house for the
board at Como park had failed by forty
seven days TO complete the work at the
time specified. The penalty prescribed
| in the contract is SO day, but the
| board postponed action until Friday
evening, when an adjourned meeting
: will he held
