WILD WEST PARADE.
Preliminary Display of Buffalo BiIl's
Great Show.

The streets Of st. Paul will this morn
ing be enlivened by one Of the most
novel spectacles that has ever been
witnessed in this part of the world.
1t can be truthfully said that never
before has such a cavalcade, embracing
50 many delegates from so many diff
ferent races, peoples and nations, been
seen in this city. The street display
made by Buffalo Bill and his congress
of rough riders was one Of the wonders
of that most wonderful of places, the
Worlds Fair and there has been no
change in the Wild West show save in
the addition of new and wonderful feat
ures since that time That prince of en-
tertainers, known in the annals of the
circus as well as the famous Barnum
himself, Mr.. James A. Bailey, Is au-
thority for the statement that the most
gorgeous circus parade ever seen
Is not to be compared in novelty and
general interest with the display of the
Wild West show with Col. Cody riding
at the head Of the procession.
Perforce of necessity, this street ex-
hibition will consist only of detachments
from each division Of peoples, unem-
bellished with tinsel and in light march
ing order The herds Of wild buffalo,
the wild bucking horses and savage
steers must be carefully guarded in
camp, but there will be enough that is
novel to repay the VISITOR Tor waiting

BUDGET IN COMMITTEE.
Where the Pruning Knife Had to
Be Applied.

The joint committee of the common
council resumed it's consideration of
the school budget yesterday forenoon
and disposed of it with unexpected ex-
petition. After brief discussion it
was decided to make the principal re-
duction in the item of supplies, fuel
and other expenses" The total reduc-
ton necessary, amounting to $39, $50
was accordingly effected by cutting the
foregoing item from $4,000 down to
S4O,850, and reducing the fund for
teachers salaries" from $3.50. 900 10
$S55,OoO. This does not affect the sal
aries of the day school teachers 1t
simply does away with the night
schools during the coming winter The
budget as summarized by the com
mittee was as follows:
Salaries of teachers S 1855 600
Salaries of all other employees, includ-
ing janitors and engineers SO. $50
Supplies, fuel and other expenses 40 $50
Iotai ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 1856, 900
All the members of the committee
were present except Assemblyman
Aros1n. The committee was unanimous
in its action on the last two items of
the budget. and nearly so in the case
of the first item, Assemblyman Rear
don casting the only negative vote, as
he was strongly opposed to doing away
with the night schools.
Assemblyman Thompson said that it
ought to be generally understood that
the night schools were not closed be-
cause of a lack Of funds, as that was
not true. The action was taken solely
on the recommendation Of the school
board to the effect that the night
schools were not productive of good In
proportion to their cost The school
board had studied the question and
was competent to judge what ought to
be done. Last year, according to the
report only 400 attended the night
schools for the forty nights required for
the schools to secure an appointment
for the state.
School Inspector Yoerg was in favor
of the night schools, while Inspector
Wilkes did not approve of them under
the existing conditions
Mayor Doran emphatically criticised
the action of the committee in recon-
mending the closing of the night
schools.

If the Assembly C0ncurs in the
and Half Per Cent.

Both bodies of the common council
passed an ordinance last night appro-
priating the sum of $455, 900 for the
maintenance of the public schools dur
ing the ensuing school year. 1t was
not the ordinance submitted by the
mayor, which proposed reduction of
nearly $4,000 in the salary fund of the
janitors, engineers, mechanics, etc., but
the amended ordinance recommended
by the joint council committee whose
action on the school budget is reported
elsewhere.
The board of aldermen convened first
last evening, it being a regular meeting
of that body. After the clerk had read
the report of the joint committee APP
pointed to consider the school budget
and the amended ordinance recon-
mended for passage, Aid. Markham,
the chairman of the joint committee,
explained the provisions of the ordi-
nance, informing the board that the re-
ductlon of the teachers salary fund
from $360,000 to $685., 200 meant the clos
ing of the night schools during the
coming winter. The reduction of the
fund for supplies, fuel and repairs from
10000 to $4O,850 was to be effected by
dpdHuol1iLS large proportion OF the
repairs originally contemplated Aid
Markham said that it was probable
that the old insurance fund of 81, 100
now in the city treasury, would ult1-
mately be made available for repairs.
Aid. Kaldunski at once objected to
the proposition to do away with the
night schools and moved as an amend
ment TO the ordinance that the salary
fund of the teachers be raised to $780,
OOO The motion did not receive a sec
Ond.
The amendments to the original ordf-
nance were then adopted whereupon
the rules We're suspended and the
amended ordinance receiving it's sec
ond reading, was passed by unani-
nous vote
The board then took a recess to en-
able the assembly to meet and act upon
the ordinance
The assembly convened at once and
concurred with the board of aldermen
in passing the ordinance after hearing
Timothy Reardon in sole opposition
thereto. The ordinance will doubtless
go to the mayor today for his sigma
ture.

PRUNING POLICE SALARIES.
Aldermen Pass the Ordinance Call
Ing for a Reduction.

If the assembly concurs in the action
of the board of aldermen at it's regular
meeting last night, every member Of
the police force will suffer a reduction
of 31A per cent in his salary. The ordi-
nance providing for such reduction,
after hanging fire in the hands of the
committee on police for the past three
weeks, was considered late yesterday
afternoon by the joint committee on
police and recommended to pass
When it came before the board last
night, it was passed without a word
of comment, by a unanimous vote.
Under this ordinance should 1t be-
come effective, patrolmen would re-
ceive $40 a month instead of $3.50, and
the compensation of all other officers
including the chief of police, would be
reduced 31a per cent. The saving
thereby accomplished would amount to
about $500 month. This will not avert
a deficiency in the police department
fund at the end of the year according
to Comptroller McCardy's report to the
conference committee, which estimates
that the shortage will amount to about
$4,000.
Shortly before the meeting of the
board, the committee on streets held
a brief session and recommended the
passage of the ordinance directing the
street railway company to extend its

tee on streets, was recalled and
substitute resolution offered vacating
that portion. of the road running
through blocks SO and 104. The reso-
luton received seven votes, three al
dermen voting against 1t. President
Markham, who voted in the negative,
SAID that he did not regard the reSo-
luton as expressive of anything more
than the willingness of the city to
abandon the road, inasmuch as the act
OF 1898, vacating territorial roads, ex-
cept under certain conditions. vacated
the Dodd road if any measure could
yacate it. The exception under the act
applied to roads upon which buildings
fronted. That being the case, Presi-
dent Markham questioned the power
or the council to vacate any territorial
road Moreover, under the charter,
the common council could not vacate
streets without exacting some COM
pensation to the city, and then three
fourths' vote was required
