tunes of the Republican candidate for
state auditor. the Pioneer Press has
opened up some ancient history from
which its candidate can reap no credit.
The history of Bob's repulse of the
proposition to "calI OFF, the alleged pine

the general public will accept as the
true one. No one who knows the

pictures, flushed to the back OF the

insuher TO the internal regions. Bob is

SHERIFF CHAPSL'S VIOLA
TON OF THE Law,

The GLOBE does not desire to be
captious or critical, but it has como to be
matter OF common notoriety that
Sheriff Chapel, for several days prior to
the execution of the two condemned
men recently strangled. issued passes
to hundreds of curious people who
visited the Jail in swarmS to look over
these condemned men. Aside fro m the
improperly of making these men in
their last hours show orr sp ectacle tor
the curious, we will take the liberty
of calling Sheriff Chapers attention to
the law now existing on this subject
Section of chapter 20 of tha Laws of
1889 reauS as follows: tSec. 4. After
the issue of the warrant for execution
by the governor the prisoner shall be-
kept in solitary confinement. and the
following persons shall be allowed to
visit him, but none other, viz: The
sheriff and his deputies. the prisoners
counsel, any priest or clergyman the
prisoner may select and members of his
Immediate family"
1t Is a matter also of common notoriety
that about 2J0 people were allowed to
be present at the hanging OF these men.
and that. by reason of the great
weight of these people upon the scat
fold, the floor was sprung SO that one of
the traps refused to work when the
lever was pulled. leaving one con-
demned man standing on the trap while
the other was suspended by the rope,
causing scene of intense confusion. i'll
which byStanders felt compelled to in
terfere and attempt to right the diff
Guilty. In view Of the fact that the fail.
ure OF this trap to work WAS due to the
weight of the multitude of people upon
that scaHolJ, we will take thu liberty of
calling Sheriff Chapel's attention to
section 5 of the same law, which reads
us follows:
Sec. 5. Besides the sheriff and his
assistants. the following persons may
be present at the execution, but none
other: The clergyman or priest in at
tendance upon the prisoner and such
other persons as the prisoner may desig.

a physician or surgeon to be selected
by the sheriff. and such other persons
as the sheriff may designate, not exceed
ing six (6) in number, but no person So
admitted shall he a newspaper reporter

who is elected to see to the enforcement
of the laws, should be the last man to

PoTTGIHsER's QUALIFICA-
TkONS

Among the mentioned qualifications
of MIR. Poltgieser, the newly converted
Republican candidate for state senator,
tho GLOBE thinks there has been an
omission. The GLOBE is inclined to
think that a valuable qualification has
thus far been overlooked. The GLOBE
refers to Mr.. Pottgieser's ability as a
caterer
When Nick was running his saloon on
Wabasha street he justly acquired a
very nigh reputation for the excellent
quality Of hot baked beans which he
was accustomed to serve with the free

walton Of the city in case Nick should
be elected senator? The uncertainty of
Nick's political creed may be of small

Suppose, for instance, that bill is in
troduced to repeal the state capitol law.
After bitter fight it has passed the
house. The untiring defenders of the
law have delayed the consideration of
the bill in the senate to the latest pos
sible moment, but on the. last night of
the session the enemy have, by the
strength and power of numbers, brought
up the bill for consideration on its fina!

VAN SYKES RECORD,
It Is VERY TROUBLESOIEE To
REPUBLICANS.
But for His Enterprise St. Paul
Would Be Minus Several
|. Fine Parks.

The record of W. A. Van Slyke as
citizen who has accomplished much in
the direction of identifying ST. Paul.
and in the promotion of the city's
growth, is one that troubles the Repu5-
Leans sorely. But for the enterprise of
Mr.. Van Slyke the city would be minus
number of its prettiest parks. 1t was
due solely to his Efforts that Summit
park was acquired and now adorns the
eastern brow of st. Anthony mill. In
December. 1882, Bart Presley called
Mr.. Van Slyke casually into his office
to- show him his plans for block of
two-story frame buildings he was about
toIerect Oh what was then known
as the Maj. Cullen Place. The
idea popped at once into
Mr.. Van Sykes head that that
pretty spot should never be marred in
the way contemplated by Mr.. Presley.
With park there instead of the row of
two-story frame structures the SUR
rounding property ould be greatly en-
HANGED in value. Mr.. Van Slyke laid
his plans at once, and soon went to Mr.
Presley and asked him to name his
price for the real property. After con-
siderable dickering Presley agreed to
take $4,000. upon the condition that
Van Slyke would bring him an agree
ment from r. e. Munger to sell him the
corner opposite for $4,000. Mr.. Van
Slyke secured the agreement and the
trade was made. In order to bring the
deal about ii was necessary for Van
Slyke to advance to Presley $1,000 OF
the $4,000. The tug-0fwar cane in Sc
curing the $4,000. Van Slyke be-
came painfully aware that the whole
thing must be done by subscription.
But the sentiment i'll favor of parks was
not strong, and to go out and collect So
large a sum in subscriptions was
doubtful undertaking. Van Slyke I'M
dertook it, however.
After thorough canvass of the city
Van Slyke found that the amount could
not be raised. He called upon CITY
Attorney Murray with the information
that $4,000 was the most that could be
raised by subscription. He was of the
opinion that the city could afford to pay
the balance. The result of this inter
view was that on March a resolution
passed the council ordering the pur-
chase of the desired property at cost
not to exceed $4,000. Thus the city paid
One-half the cost of the property known
as Summit park and Mr.. Van Sykes

the names of the subscribers thereon:

The law of the attraction of gravita-
ton was well illustrated OIL Ceder street
the other day. A man stood holding a
rope which ran over pulley, and into a
second-story window, where it was
attached to a barrel containing about
six hundred pounds of iron chain; the
barrel was poised on the sill of the
window. and by some mschance the
man in the building let go of it without
notifying the man on the ground; re-
suit, illustration of the law of gravity,
barrel down and man up, as he retained
his grip on the rope. Then, to COM
pllcate matters. the barrel struck the
ground SO hard that the bottom fell out,
the contents following. of course. And
again the gravity was demonstrated, for
this made the barrel lighter than the
man, and down he came with thump,
and the barrel went up. Then he made
the mistake of his life by letting go of
the rope. that he might feel his bruises,
for the barrel, being heavier than the
loose end of the rope, dropped swiftly
downward and struck him fairly, Just
as he was struggling to his feet, again
indicating the attraction of gravitation.
But the spectators failed to realize the
gravity of the situation.

The journal says '.if the Scandina-

cut any figure in the nomination OF any

admission of the motive of Nelson's

from that source, some limits on ad-
missions being necessary.
