NOTE AND COMMENT.

Minneapolis has a-couple of dentists,
W. G. and o. r. Bachmon, who have it
in mind to revolutionize the amusement
business. One Of them has already in
vaded this field as a playwright.
Their inventive genius has evolved
process which seems destined
to advance tooth carpenterlng to the
position of rival of tennis, bowling,
CARS. 1t Is little electrical device
which looks like fat-bodied bloW-pipe,
but which is an appliance to be used in
tooth filling. 1t seems destined to over
turn the customs and habits of years.
Once used on man. ne becomes so en-
amoIed OF the operation that. when he
wants to entertain a friend, he says:
Come down and have a tooth filled
with me-" The inventors of the appIi-
ance like it so we'll that they operate on
each others teeth for amusement when
ever they have dull moment. The
habit of having teeth filled may, by the
use of this appliance, become so all
sorbing that another DR.. Kelley may
be needed to cure men of the passion
for having their molarS filled.
A young man in the Tribune office has
written an editorial on Happiness in
He'll" Does he speak from personal

By the way, what has become of
Representative Cairns and Judge
YOung'S and Frank Nye's Law Enforce

die under Republican administration
for lack of political incentive to action?
In the light of facts removed by the
production of new play in Minneapo-
lis yesterday, it seems that plays writ
ten around sawmills, blacksmith shops
and farm implements are now giving
place to dramas built around personal
adornmentS-garters and such. Who
said stage realism had seen its day?
These dentists are consistent fellows.
Ihey raise row and hullabaloo be-
cause one OF their number is suspected
of violating their own little code of
ethics, bnt they themselves drive thon-
sands of men to violate the Decalogne :.
and then presume to say that thew de.
serve commentator as friends of hu.
manity.
Every day 1t becomes more apparent
that Mayor EuStis possesses a fine legal
mlnd-a mind capable of noting the
hair-splltting distinctions of the law.
HIS gambling rules prove it. 1t takes
such mind to discover that what is
gambling when cards are pulled from
faro box Is not gambling when the cards
are pulled from ''clock" See Second
avenue south and Third street.
The gentlemen in charge of the prem
aratons for the carnival of sport would
better call of the Evening Jaw and IFS
illustrated articles. Gentlemen, Won
can't get respectable amateur athletes
to help you boom the town if they are
to be SO libeled in advance.
Heretofore the only qualifications
necessary TO become appointed to the
position of meat or bread Inspector were
a pull aad good appetite. If the pro-
posed health ordinance is passed, how
ever, an aspirant for either of the Jobs
must be abs 20 analyZe and diagnose a
STEAK, as we'll as eat 1t.
Now that Aid. Flanders Is back to the
city, there will probably be settlement
OF the central pound matter. 1t will be
settled in manner that will suit him
by areturn to the old system of having
poundnaster for every ward. He was
