needless to say it was we'll conducted.
St. Marks church, Merriam Park, was
the beneficiary of a carnival and fair ar
ranged by Father Harrison's parishioners
and held during the past week IN Co.

PHYS residence on Jackson street came
near succnmbing to the demon of fire.

Patrick Egan brings suit against the |
city of St. Paul for the sum of $3.50 bal
ance due him for salary. Mr.. Egan
claims the appointment Of his successor,
Mr.. P. J. Bigue, was unlawful, as his
term had not expired, he having been ap-
pointed for two years,and b 4, was thrown
out Of his office thereby sustaining loss
of five months wages at $3.50 per month.
Mr.. Egan seems to have great deal OF
right on his side of the question.
From the number of bills pouring in
daily and the great number yet to be
of, it Is quite evident that the
legislature will not be able to "accomplish
half the work expected of it. Some of

seem to feel that they we're elected for
The purpose of being afforded an oppor-
tunity of enjoying themselves at the ex-
pense of the state.
