Park Commissioners Stick by Their
Previous Action

There will be no free skating Kinks this
winter. The board Of park commissioners
yesterday decided to stand by their previous
action by vote OF to g. with 1 not voting
Those arrayed against the Kinks were Com
missioners Adams, Dahn Deming Elliot
Jones, Mcmillan, Stoft, Woods. Commits
sioners Hunter Loye, Nye, Pratt, Ryan, Fol-
well voted for the Kinks, and Mr.. Ridgeway
did not vote.
The question was brought up at a special
meeting called at tie request Of Messrs. Nye,
Pratt, Loye. A resolution was introduced by
Commissioner Ryan to the board which was
that no money should be expended this COM
ing winter for the maintenance of skating
Kinks in the public parks. Considerable dis
cussion and debate followed.
Commissioner Ridgeway submitted a state
ment showing that the board would have a
deficit of IS, S04 &c, which was less than that
of last year at the same time
MIR. Nye stated that he was a sort of walk
ing petition on the matter, for it seemed
that all the children in his ward had asked
that it was the proper thing for the board
to do, inasmuch as it was in no worse
financial condition than it was year ago.
Mr. Jones responded for the anti-rink side
His words were rather vigorous and he was
unsparing in his criticism of those members
OF the board who were not at the previous
meeting of the board, at which time the orig
mai action was taken. He said that while
no board in the United States had a better
feeling towards the public than that of Min
neapofs, it was necessary for the public
W hiAoW lHS idClS III Tie case, WHICH would
show that their action was best.
Mayor Pratt thought that 80 per cent per-
haps So per cent, of the people of Mime
apolis were in favor Of opening the Kinks He
called attention to the fact that while the
board eXpends large sums for four months
Of the year to maintain the parks in the
summer, the board is not willing to give even
a small sum for the pleasure of a much
larger per cent of the people. He thought
that the money thus expended could be saved
out of next summers expenses.
Messrs. Love and Ryan spoke in favor of
the rinks and Mr.. Nye replied to some of
the anti-rinkers that while he had been active
in favor of cutting down the expenses of the
board it was with the view of meeting lust
such things as this which he considered q
against reconsidering the previous action.

Meteor. Falls on "a North Dakota
Farm.


Farm.
FESSENDEN, N. D., Nov. 1S.-On
Sunday morning last it seemed as
though the heavens were all aglow
with phosphoreseent light. Upon close
examination there seemed to be mill
ions of shooting stars. Owing to the
hour, about in the morning, but few
witnessed this grand display.
On the farm of James Every, just
east Of town, a meteor imbedded itself
over eight feet in the earth. Those
who were awake say they felt tremor
Of the earth Mr. Every was badly
frightened and almost overcome by the
shock and sulphurous smoke. The
deep snow OF the succeeding evening
almost covered the depression made by
the great meteor, but 1t is yet plainly
observable. 1t will be dug out as soon
as the weather will permit
Very few people were aware of the
coming of the meteoric, shower Sew
eral who witnessed it say 1t began
about 2 o'clock and continued about an
hour. The sky was clear At first
there were a few shooting stars and
then suddenly the whole heavens lit up
with flash like lightning and it grew
brighter and brighter until there ap-
peared across the whole sky a trail of
fire like the tail Of a, huge comet and

meteors. The light gradually formed
itself into long streak like lightning
and then moved in, a slow zigzag move
ment across the heavens and finally
shaped itself into a letter z, in which
form it remained for some time, and
then slowly faded away. During all
this time there were numerous shooting
stars and thea.eafth was as bright as
day. The display lasted for the great
er part of an hour, but the great light
described was of much shorter dura-
ton. 1t was during this duration of
the light that the meteor fell on
Every's farm. The phenomena, fright
