THE CITY's SEWERS.
Fewer Will BE Built Than the
Council Ordered.

Fewer Will Be Built Than the
Council Ordered.
The city councils pruning committee
was in session yesterday afternoon. and
applied the scalpel to the sewer list
$4,000 worth.
The aldermen were obliged to do some
close figuring. The lists of sewers.
water mains, paving and curbing which
had been ordered by the council reached
a total OF almost million. while there is
only s400, 900 available with which to do
the work. The members of the pruning
each one of them, however. watching
with Jealous eyes so that their respect
i've wards should not suffer.
1t IS extremely probable that the
council will take hand. and revise the
report OF the committee in order to
eQuallze matters.
After the aldermen had been in ses-
sion about four hours they had sue
ceeded in cutting the list OF improve
ments for next year down 10 s402. AL,
which they divided as follows: Sewers,
SS0l, ia; paving, s7560O; curbing, s75,-
667.
OF the amount devoted to sewers,
$l42, 063 wi be used for work done this
year. Among this are included the big
Bryn Mawr and Twenty-sixth street
sewers. which we're inaugurated to give
work 10 the unemployed. Thus only
about $l50,000 is left for the next years
work. which sum is very much below
the average. OF the sum SIS. 600 appro.
priated for paving, S59. 900 will be needed
for paving Nicollet and Hennepin ave-
nues. which will be completed this fall,
but which cannot be paid for until next
years tax collections are In. This leaves
but $4,000 for paving purposes for next
year.
The committee will meet again before
the council meeting Friday evening TO
put their report In shape.

The engine of the passenger train

Walked Up in Time

To the fact that want of tone In the
system is the herald of approaching
disease, hosts of invalids have adopted
that certain means of self-rescue from
impending danger, Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. This benignant tonic promotes,
in no ordinary degree, digestion and
assimilation, through which the blood
is fertilized and made strength-yield-
ing. Besides this, inactivity of the
liver, bowels and kidneys. which impede
gain of vigor, is overcome. Appetite,
as we'll as the ability to crafty it with
out discomfort, is stimulated by this
thorough medicinal cordial, which also
has a tranquiizlng effect upon nerves
weak and unQuiet. Food. it should be
remembered. only half invigorates the
dyspeptic. BY the use OF the Bitters it's
nourishing properties are made avail
able. For malaria, rheumatism and the
intirmities OF age use the Bitters.

msnded to know il there was a warrant
for his arrest. Mr.. Allen replied there
was warrant out for him aud that all
officer had gone in search of him.
''Well Pm here TO be arrested" re-
marked Mr.. Latbrop. and after reading
the complaint he went into the court
room. accompanied by his attorney, Ben
Davenport. A few moments later
Aid. Flanders appeared. He placed
himself by the side of Assistant County
Attorney Van Fossen and cast furtive
glances at Mr.. Lathrop. 1t is dollars to
doughnuts that he wished he had never
taken the step which led TO the arrest
of Mr.. Lathrop. for the latter proposes to
make it exceedingly interesting. MIR.
Van Fossen asked to have the prelimin-
airy examination occur next Tuesday,
but on the request of Mr.. Lathrop, the
court granted him stay OF ten days in

FOR WILLIAM HENRY EUSTIS.

lite, Too.
RELIEF FOR THE DESTITUTE.
Minneapolis Is Doing Her
Share Toward Alleviating
the Fire Suffering.

The Republican city primaries were
held last night. The convention will be
held today, when the matter of munich
pal offices will be settled, so far as the
nominees on the Republican ticket are
concerned. Although the Eustis men
last night persisted in claiming every
thing. there is no eel tainty that he will
even have plurality of votes at the
convention when the first informal BAL
lot Is taken. 1t may be that he will
have the greatest number of votes OH
this ballot. but by no means enough TO
nominate. A. j. Boardman's stock
went up like May wheat last night.
he got the delegates from the Third,
Sixth, Ninth, Eleventh and Thirteenth
wards without any doubt. He has also
fair representation in all the other
wards. His own ward. the Fourth, did
poorly by him, and it is understood he
failed to carry his own precinct. The
Eustis henchmen maintained there was
no earthly show for any other man than
the present incumbent. but the voting
at the convention TO-DAY will show them
how foolish 1t is to build on the sand.
Henry Beemer did not appear to be in
1t at all. His name was mentioned but
rarely.
For the most part the primaries were
orderly, and harmony prevailed. In the
First ward, however. the Celtic and
French blood did not mix we'll. In the
Ninth precinct OF the ward W. A. Dun
lap and j. H. Gillem. the former a
would-be-delegate and the latter bal
lot inspector, engaged in heated con-
troversy over the exact time of the
evening. Gillem claimed that his watch
was right, and Dunlap swore it was not
and called him liar. The two came to-
gether and wrestled about the floor
without doing any material injury to
each other. The result of it all was
that free fight ensued. the French and
Irish scrapping with each other at
great rate. Patrolman Gordon came in
just Ill time to save bloodshed.
Aside from the mayoralty there is DO
doubt but Comptroller Nyt will receive
a denomination. also City Treasurer
Hangar. The matter of municipal
ludgeshp Is so mixed that it will take
Philadelphia lawyer TO make 1t out.
There are at least dozen candidates
for the positions.
The aldermanic contests will likely
result as follows:
Second ward, Burke O'Brlen; Third
ward. George Chimpman; Fourth ward,
the present incumbent. Aid. Loye;
Sixth, Mr.. Hoirup; Seventh, Aid. Wood
ward; Eighth. Frank Haywood or some
man other than Aid. Flanders; Ninth,
ex-Ald. Vogt; Tenth, john West;
Eleventh, Jay Phillips; Thirteenth,
Aid. Gray.
In the Fourth ward the Shove men
are likely to come to the front when the
convention is organized, but the indica-
tons last night were that Aid. Love had
carried away almost everything. In the
Eighth ward the anti-Flanders men won
easily. The present incumbent will not
be in the race at all today, though it is
likely that some one besides Frank
Haywood will get the nomination.

THE FIRE SUFFERERS.
Minneapolis Has Come Nobiy to
the Front.

From the way subscriptions are pour
ing in it is evident that Minneapolis will
have responded nobly to the call for aid
from the devastated districts in the
northern portion of the state. Among
the largest contributors are: The Fire
Department Relief association, L. B.
Walker, Nelson, Tenney & Co., E. w.
Backus & Co., Akeley Lumber CON-
pany, each OF whom gave $1,000. The
banks came in with amounts ranging
from $3.50 to $500, as did number OF
business houses and individuals. The
Minneapolis Brewery company, for
instance. gave $500. and William Don.
aldsOn & Co. $3.50.
The work of selling tickets for the
benefit performances at the Bijou and
Peoples theaters is progressing favor
ably, the policemen reporting large
sales. 1t is evident the benefits will be
successful IN every sense of the word.
Friday morning there will be base
ball game at Athletic park between
newspaper men and actors. A number
of the latter will be selected from "The
Flsms" company, at present playing at
the Grand. The receipts will be turned
over to the relief committee. Mayor r.
L. Lewis, of Duluth, was in the city
yesterday and called on Mayor Eustis.
The two dignltaries discussed the situa-
ton. and in the afternoon attended a
meeting at the rooms of the Jobbers'
association, where Rev. Wayland Hoyt

Several Close and Exciting Games
Played Yesterday.
W. P. Tearse, prominent lumber
man of WinOna. was in the city yester-
day looking after the Empire Lumber
company's interests.
The tennis tournament now being
held at the court of w. q. Bronson Is
attracting large crowds, and is decided
ly interesting. there being a number of
very good players in the city. By far
the closest and most interesting match
OF Monday were the games between
Louis Hospes and j. l.. Banner .Jr. Both
men play the same style OF game-a
careful, back-couTt lObbing game, which
is certainly the most interesting to spec.
tatorS. although it lacks the speed and
brilliancy of the net game. The first
set went to banner. 6-3, the second TO
Hospes. Ga. This necessitated a third
set, which was hotly contested. The
game was finally called on account of
darkness, the contestants having eight
games each. The players in the ladies'
singles have been drawn, and will play
as follows: Miss Annie Bean VS.. Miss
Lehmleke, Miss Hall VS.. Miss Annie
Nelson, Miss Nelson VS.. Miss Keene,
Miss Bronson vs.. Miss Clark. Miss Con-
son VS.. Miss Ann Nelson, Miss Lefur-
gay VS.. Miss Fogle.

OF the town of Saltwater. who has resided
in this county nearly forty years, died

ton aged sixty-seven years. He was
native of Germany.

that Charles NJ. Ernest. a resident of
