not only won the first prize of six guineas in the
medal round Of eighteen holes. but he also di-
vlded with Braid the purse offered for the four
Gomea.
Braid, 1t will be recalled, is the professional
who beat Horace RAwlins, tho United States
open champion of 1895. last March by five I'D
and four to play in a thirty-six-hole match at
brentwood. England. He was sixth In the last
open championship of Great Britain and fourth
in the professional competition at North Ber-

inquiry suggested by Park Commissioner Mcmillan.
Corporation Counsel CLARK gave an opinion that
the practice was contrary to law. He acted under

1t has been decided In New Jersey. Pennsylvania,

PROUD NIGHT 1T WAS.
Company ID Entertains It's Friends
With u Crack Drill.

Company d Entertains Its Friends
With Crack Drill.
Fully 1000 persons paid for admis-
sion to the armory last night to witness
the exhibition drill given by Company
D, Of the national guard, prior to its
departure for New Orleans Monday.
1t was one Of the finest drills ever
witnessed in the city, and at the conclu-
sion hundreds Of those present rushed
up to Capt. Bean and the other officers
of the company and congratulated them
on the result. The drill consisted Of
setting-up exercises, school of soldier
company movements, manual Of arms,
loading and firing, platoon movements,
bayonet exercise and extended order
At every command the entire company
moved as one man, and some of the
movements were so elegantly executed
as to excite prolonged applause from
the audience. The other commissioned
officers in addition to Capt. Bean are
Lieuts. c. E. Metz and NJ. L. Merrill.
One Of the features of the occasion
was the singing Of Company DIS quar-
tette. This quartette consists of Cor
poral George C. Bookstaver, c. A. Book
w. H. Allen and Paul Henninger, and
the company has reason to feel proud
Of their musical talent. Every one
Of them has a splendid voice, and they
show a fair degree Of training. They
rendered two selections, and were heart
lily encored each time.
Another feature was the silent drill
by Corporal ]. H. Krch and Private
Henninger. They went through all the
manual Of arms movements, loading,
firing, fixing bayonets, ETC., in perfect
unison without a sound being made.
At the conclusion Of the drill Capt.
Bean thanked all present for the in
terest shown. He said the company
would be in New Orleans one week
from tonight, but no matter where the
boys went they would maintain the
reputation of Company D. He then
told the boys to pack their knap-sacks
and have everything in readiness for
Monday evening, as no other meeting
will be held in the meantime.
A number of Company B'boys were
over from Minneapolis to witness the
drill, and expressed great admiration of
the manner in which Company d keeps
up it's efficiency. Company B is also
going to New Orleans, but will not start
until the 14th, four days after Com
pany D.

THEIR ROMANTIC SOULS
Demanded Tinge of Mystery, So
They Went to Hudson.


John G. Bishop, of 372 Dayton ave-
nue., has been trying for a. week to con-
ceal the fact that he had been mar
ried at Hudson, Wis. With equal re-
serve his wife has not given it out that
she dropped her maiden name with
her long eyelashes in the same village
Jan. 80. This does not, however, i'm
pair their conviction that none before
have been as happy as they, or that
they hereafter will be happier still,
Mr.. Bishop and Miss Bertha Alice
Faux, as dearly as they loved one an
other, loved romance even more. Mr..
Bishop has secured to himself an in
dependent business and a vote and
was entirely free to marry any lady
as desirable as his fancee But he
regretted that he was Of age, and his
sole opinion upon the financial question
was that a decimal currency was
wrong. For Mr.. Bishop envied the
youthful heroes Of the melodrama, who
always desire to marry against the
wishes of red-nosed, white-haired
fathers. The latter say You impudent
young rascal!' and intimate, after
pounding the stage with cane, that
off without a shilling"
But Mr.. Bishops father always
called him Jack, Mr.. Bishop, Sr..
doesn't even carry a cane, and he
promised his son a handsome wedding
present. AS for shillings, the old genie
man thinks the word means two bits"
and he generally says quarter in
stead.
Miss Faulk was years ago bereft of
her mother but her father wrote her
such a friendly letter, congratulating
her upon her prospective marriage,
that she cried for two days. why
can't he be just lovely and horrid ?"
she exclaimed to her dearest friend.
IF he cared for me the very least bit,
he'd lock me up in a room and keep the
key just know he would. Only think.
he don't even say he'll never speak
to me again.
The conduct of the relatives on both
sides being thus abnormal and dis
couraging. Mr.. Bishop and Miss Faux
resolved to escape surreptitiously to
Hudson anyway and marry before the
world could learn that the event was
to take place. This they did jan 80,
and now Mr.. Bishop and his pretty
bride are enjoying the second quarter
of their honeymoon at their home on
Dayton avenue. Mr.. Bishop is an in
terror decorator.

COUNTY AND CITY.
Republican Committees Organise
for the Coming Campaign.

The Ramsey county Republican COM
mittee and the old Republican city
committee held a meeting yesterday
afternoon at the headquarters of the
Lincoln club, in the Endicott building.
1t was the first gathering of the county
committee since the campaign a year
ago last fall. F. B. Doran, the chair
man of the executive committee, pre-
sided, and Fred w. Zollman, the sec
rotary Of that committee, acted as
secretary.
The only business transacted con-
sisted in making provision for filling
vacancies on the county committee,
and on the precinct and ward commit
tees, all of which committees were or
gained in October, 1894.
It was taken as the sense Of the
meeting that all vacancies on precinct
committees should be filled by the
vote of the remaining members or
member or, in case not one Of the COM
nlittee should remain in the precinct,
then the legal voters of the precinct
will be authorized to select commit
tee at time and place named by the
ward committee.
Only two vacancies We're found on
the county committee. They were in
the First ward and in the Eighth.

NAILED THE FAKES.
Mayor Smith Talks About His Post
mastership Errand.


mastership Errand.
Mayor Smith returned to st. Paul
yesterday from Washington, D. c.,
whittier he went about ten days ago,
in the interest Of Assemblyman
postmastership. During the mayors
absence a morning and an evening
paper have printed wild and woolly
tales regarding his honor's mission.
One sheet manufactured the report that
the mayor wanted to be postmaster
himself, and the other declared that
he had gone to the national capital to
urge the appointment Of Charles Petsch
to the Office. If anybody placed the
slightest reliance upon these palpable
fakes, the mayor punctured them all
yesterday afternoon when he said to
G l o e reporter:
81 went to Washington In hehalf OF
Mr.. Strouse l had an interview with
Postmaster General Wilson and also
talked with President Cleveland about
the matter. The president asked me
how many candidates there were for
the position, and I told him there were
six. He wanted to know if there was
any strong feeling being engendered
by the contest. / ISSUED him that SO
far as 1 could judge there was not.
On the contrary, the best feeling SEEM
ed to prevail. Furthermore, informed
the president that all the candidates
were excellent men, and any one Of
them would be satisfactory to the peo-
pie of st. Paul. l declared my pre-
ference for Mr.. Strouse, however, and
said that I believed that he would
prove the most acceptable to the public
if appointed. L talked the same way
to the postmaster general"
Have you any idea who will receive
the appointment"
Il have not" answered the mayor.
81 can only say that I regard Mr..
Strouse's chances better than some
of the candidates, and as good as any.
/ noticed that the postmaster general
seemed to be impressed with the
length Of the list of names subjoined to
some Of the petitions. The petition in
behalf Of Jim King contains the most
names and that of John s. Grade comes
next The petition in the interest Of
Mr.. Strouse is much shorter in the
matter of names. William Lee Is in
dorsed by a letter from J. J. Hill, but
Michael Doran has thus far kept out of
the contest. John M Gilman's name
is indorsed by a large number Of citi-
zens. Who will be chosen If is inlpos-
sible to say just now, but 1 expect that
the appointment will be announced in
the course of two or three days"

GRAND RAPIDS, BOOM.
Editor Bernard, of the Magnet, San.
gu1ne of Success.


Editor Bernard, of the Grand Rap
ids Magnet, was "a visitor at the Com
mercial club yesterday. Mr.. Bernard
expects a large attendance at the i'm
migration convention to be held at
Grand Rapids next week. He reports
that no place ON the Missaba range
is in a more fourishing condition than
Grand Rapids. 1t has population OF
1000. 1t has just completed a 100000
schoolhouse, is building a 100000 court
house, and has water works, street
cars and electric lights.
1t is dependent upon the lumber in
dustry, inasmuch as little attention
is now devoted to mining at that end
of the Missaba range. At the eastern
end, however, the Bessemer iron ore.
although not of a superior quality, lies
much nearer to the surface, and can
be mined at much less expense
Mr.. Bernard would like to see the
early construction of a railroad going
directly from ST. Paul to Grand Rap
ids. This road would be nearly 100
miles shorter than the present lines
via Duluth, and gives the extensive
trade of the region through which the
proposed line would lie to ST. Paul in
stead Of to Duluth.
