Grand Officers Install Vasa Grove
in Its New Home.
Vasa Grove, of the order of Druids,
kept open house last night, the occa-
sion being the dedication of their new
hall on East Seventh street. The
grand officers Of the order were pres
ent for the event and conducted the
ceremonies of the evening, according
to the form of the order. There were
present N. G. A., John Peterson, of
Minneapolis, Deputy G. A. Walter
Boyd, of this city; Grand Secretary
G. A. Johnson, Grand Treasurer F.
Fredericks, of Minneapolis, and Grand
Marshal William Smith, of Winona

joyed dancing.
Vasa Grove was organized Aug. 4.
1884, with twenty-seven charter mem
bers. 1t grew steadily until it's mem
bership ran UP to 107 in 1890 Then
came short season of losses owing to
some changes in the constitution of
the order. But in 1892 the grove gained
again in members and now numbers 100
In good standing. This large member
ship made new and commodious quar-
tiers a necessity. The new hall is well

new lodge home and did the honors of
the evening with high degree of sat

HOMESEEKERS7 RATES.
Chairman Caldwell at Last Con-
SenfS to kEMOXe.11

The activity of the Minneapolis
board of trade has at last provoked
Chairman Caldwell, of the Western
Passenger association. to take some
action regarding homeseekers' excur-
sion rates. o. B. Clark, chairman OF
the board Of trade committee, has been
in constant correspondence with Chair
man Caldwell, but it is only lately that
he has been able to get any satisfac-
ton out of him. Yesterday the COM
mittee received the following, from Mr..
Caldwell:
Chicago, EGG so. B. Clark, Chair
man of Committee Minneapolis Board
of Trade-Dear Sir: Referring to
your letter of the Sth, the question of
homeseekers' excursion is now under
consideration by the Western lines
and will probably be finally deter
mined at an adjourned meeting to be
held next Wednesday and you will
doubtless be promptly advised of any
action taken. Respectfully,
-. B. d.. CALDWELL.
1t is understood that the roads rum
ming from Chicago to Minneapolis
are favorable to the idea, so that /,
is probable that, late as it is, there
may be some harvest excursions into
the Northwest yet this fall.

Gle WOULD PRACTICE 1T ON THE
OLD MISSISSIPPI STREET
BRIDGE.
SAYS RUNDLETT is WRONG.
III SAW 1T WITH MY EYES,H
SAYS THE ECONOMICAL AS
SEMDLYMAN.
THE CITY ENGINEER INSISTS
That the Bridge Is Dangerous
and Must Be Repaired in Sub
stantiaI Fashion.

THE assembly committee on streets,
or at least two or three of the MEM
bers, will visit the Mississippi street
bridge between a. m. and 10 a. m.
today in order to ascertain whether
it needs the repairs that the city
engineer says it does.
Mr.. Arosin, the chairman Of the
committee, objected at the meeting
of the committee yesterday to the
speciflca tons for the repairing of the
bridge as prepared by City Engineer
Rundlett. In the opinion of the as
Semblyman the repairs called for by
Mr.. Runlettt were not needed. Mr..
Arosin informed the committe that
he had visited the bridge the other
day, all alone, had walked over it,
and looked under it, and inspected
1t generally with his two eyes, which
ought to be as good as anybody's,
and he had concluded that the re-
pairs asked for were extravagant in
their nature.
The matter came before the COM
mittee in the shape of recommended
ton from the city engineer that the
contract for painting and repairing
the bridge be awarded to Charles
Stone, whose bid of 81, $3.50 was the
lowest of five submitted
In glancing over the items accom-
panying the tabulated bids, MrAro-
sin noted the sum of $1,246 as the
amount bid for brick paving for the
roadway. of the bridge. A brick paw
ing on a bridge was, in Mr.. Arosin's
5udgment,a AN unwarrantable eXrtav-
agance, and he frankly informed
City Engineer Rundlett that he so
regarded it. Mr.. Rundlett replied
that plank roadway would have
to be repaired every two or three
years. and that in the end it would
cost more than brick pavement,
which would last ten years. The
city engineer pointed out the fact
that half of the cost of the brick
pavement would fall upon the street
railway company, which would mean
a deduction of 1925 from the entire
contract price of $4,3S750
After discussing the matter half
an hour the committee decided to
visit the bridge in company with
Mr.. Rundlett, who is confident that
he can convince Mr.. Arosin that all
the repairs specified are absolutely
necessary.

Miners Claim the Cars Hold Too

CHARLESTON, w. Va, Aug. l2-
There are strong indications that 500
miners employed on Loup Creek will
strike. The men are paid SIS cents per
car of coal mined in room and 70 cents
per car of entry coal. They claim
that the car holds nearly three tons,
though supposed to contain only two.
They demand that car measurement
shall cease and that, operators put in
scales, but continue the present rates
for mining. The operators claim that
the cars now in use hold only one and
seven-tenths tons, and that con-
sequently the tonnage rate on Loup
Creek is 1926 cents and 41.1S cents per
ton, according to the character of work
necessary to mine coal. This is three

A mob was im- mediately organized and while the men -were being conveyed to the jail Frey was secured by the crowd and hanged just back of the jail yard. The evil dence against the others was not as conclusive as against the victim of the mob and they were locked up.

Contests in the State Conventfon-Tho Conn
 raittee on Resolutions.

Louisville, Ky, June 24.-The demo-
 cratic state convention here will be in-
 volved in one of. the hottest contests in the history of the commonwealth. Many
 delegates were here over Sunday. All are here to-day for the preliminary skirmish in the district meetings. The ca1vasses made by all of the Louisville
 papers show the gold delegates to be in
 majority. The silver men dispute
 their estimate, and charge that the Lou
 isv1lle papers claim most of the unin- structed delegates when those delegates
 are equally divided. The lines are drawn on the question of endorsing the
 administration Carlisle's friends lead- ing for the administration and Black
 burns friends opposing. General Cas- sius M. Clay is the administration can- didate for governor and General F. w. Hardin IS the anti-administration can didate.
 The silver men will try to force nonn- nations before the adoption of the plat form. The gold men are bitterly op-1 posing this order of business, as they claim that Hardin is pronounced free coinage man, as much as Senator Black burn, and If nominated wants a free, silver plank.
 The first test of strength will come tomorrow on the selection of a tenn porary chairman, who has the appoint ment of two members at large on all the committees. There. are eleven con- gTessional districts. It is estimated that the gold men will have six and the silver men five of the committees on, resolutions from these districts, but If the silver men secure the temporary organization the platforms makers will stand seven to six. This is the fight that is being made to-day. Neither side will announce its candidate for tenn porary chairman, although Chairman w. J. Stone and M s. Berry are still most prominently mentioned by their respective sides for presiding officer.
 The Post, which strongly supports the financial policy, to-day has a full poll of the delegates, showing 435 for Hardin, S7S for Clay and 65 doubt full It says:
 There are SIS delegates, 440 rfeces- sary to choice, and the poll indicates that Hardin lacks five votes only. The Hardin men say that they have the five votes. This is by no means certain. c. Gordo Williams was defeated sixteen years ago by James B. McCrea- " when within five votes of the nomi- 1 nation"
 Ex-Governor Buckner published a l card to-day stating that he would not accept the nomination for governor and l that the sound money demo- 1 crats must select some other man If l they cannot nominate General Clay. 1 General Buckner adds that he Is a cam didate for senator on a sound money | platform, and will have nothing else.
