The O'Malleys,

The st. Cloud Journal Press has
the following to say in regard to
the O'Malleys. who will open a three
nights engagement in this city to-
morrow evening;
Last night was the third of the
O'Malleys' engagement and the
audience doubled that Of the previous
evening. People are just beginning
to realize the excellence of tth. conn
pany, and we look for crowded
houses for the balance Of the week.
The bill last night was the "MOthcr-
in-law," a comedy which was one OF
Nat q. Goolwins early successes,
and the manner in which O'Mnlley
handled the comedy role must be
added to his already long list OF
successes. Miss Gertrude O'Malley
was the hit of the evening, ana her
makeup and acting of the mother
in-law was simply perfect. One
could scarcely credit that the beau
tiful young lady of the night before
could become the h!deOus old talking
machine. Maybelle O'Malley, as the
Injured wife, portrayed the character
very nicely, while Anna O'Malicy, az
the little angel OF the system created
no end of fun, and her singing oi
''Sister Nell" Ben Bolt" and by
request, "I'll be Your Mamma To-
day." was heartily enjoyed by all.

Tramps to Work at st. Cloud.

st. Cloud journal Press: The city
council has come to realizing sense
of the necessity for taking some ac-
tion looking to the abatement of the
tramp nuisance. At last nights
meeting of the aldermanic board
Mr.. Bradford made motion that Il
committee of three lie appointed to
Investigate the feasibility Of erecting
q high board fence on the city's lot
on Seventh avenue north near the
Carter mill, providing a rock pile
and working the hOboes when they
should be taken into custody. The
project met with opposition from
Aid. Munsinger, who considered the
lots were pure hased for city mar
ket, but the motion Of Aid. Brad
ford that a committee of three
should he numed to investigate the
merits of the scheme was carried and
the chair named as the committee
Mr.. Bradford, Mr.. Alstrom and Mr..
Munsinger. There may he a division
o. sentiment as to where the rock
pile will be located, but all will agree
that some, means must be taken to
reduce the tramp nuisance in this
city. The town is filed with the
vermin and the police are powerless
to cope with them when they infest
the residence portion of the city.

EaSmusSen's Body Found.

The body Of Van Rasmussen, who
was drowned in the Mississippi over
two months ago, while attempting
to cross the river in n small boat
was found at the rear OF the large
log jam at Belle Prairie Tuesday
by the river drivers. The body of
Mrs. Davis, who was drowned at
the same time, was found about u
month ago and very near the place
where Rasmussen's BODY was found
today. The body is in IL badly de-
composed state and it is probably
that no inquest will be held.
Coroner Trace was sent for and
went up to the place this afternoon.
At the time of the finding OF Mrs.
Davis body 1t was thought by the
drivers that the other body was not
far off, hut the big jam moved and
they were then unable to find it.

TO a Duluth News reporter A. ID.
Davidson expressed the following
opinion on the financial plank in the
Republican national platforms:
"You may readily imagine that l
approve OF the financial plank of the
st. Louis platform for l had the
honor to vote for 1t. or course it ia
the only solution OF the financial
question and the people will realize
1t before fall. Free silver would
bring about a financial disturbance
compared with which the panic OF
1893 would be picnic. Our indus.
tries would be idle, our credit would
be ruined and dire results would
follow in the footsteps Of free and
unlimited coinage OF silver"

Frank N. Foster will be rmcm-

residents Of this city for his propen-

gun powder was where he thought
to save himself considerable physical
labor by splitting stove wood with
gun powder instead Of an AK. He
bored n hole in Il log, filed it with
powder and touched it off with a

Dig down to the cause of your
sickness, if you want to get we'll and
stay well. Most likely it's indiges-
ton. The irritating poisons OF
fermenting, putrid food, left in the
stomach by indigestion. cause head
ache, neuralgia. nervousness, dizzi-
ness, stomachache, nausea. irritable
ity, and all the other we'll known
symptoms of indigestion.
They also cause many pains and
disorders which are often laid to
other causes and hence are not easily
cured. But as soon as the pOisODs
are removed, all these symptoms
and disorders disappear. because
there is nothing left to cause them.
Nothing succeeds in this like Shaker
Digestive Cordial, because it pre-
vents undigested food from ferment-
ing in the stomach and helps the
stomach to digest it's food.

timntrd to- confirm over 1000 O,OOO
feet of lumber. and was over a mile
in length. extending from the head
of the submerged island about
mile north Of IN. city to the mouth
Nf the Little ELK stream. The jam
extended the iul; width Of the river,
which IL nearly n half mile wi,h ut
that place.
For some time it was feared that
when the drivers began breaking the
jam, owing to the high water, the
whole jam would move down river
at once. Such was not the case.
and under the skilliul management
Of the forrmen, IL. a. Conner, and
Russell Harmon, the big jam was
gradually and safely picked to pieces
and the logs sorted. The work was

done.
The work was completed yester-

river to begin the work of breaking
the second large jam, the head OF
which rests on Belle Prairie rapids
about five miles above this city.
This jam Is estimated to contain
over 300 COO, 900 feet of lumber.

Joseph Bockh0rnl. WHO for several
years has been proprietor OF the
American house In this city, has
now taken possession Of Hotel
Tivoli, at Royalton, and will there
be prepared IT, care for the travelling
public, lie is an experienced hotel
man. and popular landlord. and
always enjoyed Il prosperous bust
ness in this city. Before leaving
little Falls, he wished to express his
thanks to his friends and patrons.
That he will secure Il large trade in
ROyalton, no one will doubt, and
the people of this city will generally
wish him prosperity and good
fortune. The causes that brought
about his removal from Little Falls
were peculiar-in these days ri
supposed freedom. The American
house is located just east of the court
house block, and the premises did
not have sufficient space to store the
wagons OF the farmer customers. A
large part Of the patronage nf the
hotel was from farmers, and for
years it had been the custom to
place the wagons on the opposite
side of the street from the hotel. 1t
is an so foot street, and the amount
OF travel ON it made no danger of a
blockade. There has been more or
less agitation about removing the
wagons, but it never assumed i'm
portant proportions until after the
spring clectiOn-in which Mr.. Book
horni was the candidate opposed to
Mr.. Mecusker. After that the
demand for removal Of the wagons
increased, but the authorities quietly
CONSENTED that the wagons could
remain until July /. Mr.. BockhOrnf
states that shortly before July l the
owner of the hotel MRS. Diedrich)
informed him that he coLld not
have the hotel any longer, and said
that Alderman Martin. had informed
her that if Bockhorni remained in
the hotel the wagons would be
removed from the streets, but that
ii she kept the hotel the wagons
would not be removed. Mr.. Book
horni asked Alderman Martin about
it, and states that Martin confirmed
Mrs. Diedrich's information; that il
he (BOckhorni run the hotel the
wagons would he removed, but that
if Mrs. d. had charge the wagons
could remain. BOckhOrni was also
informed that his conduct during the
spring campaign had been over
looked, but that his taking part in
the recent caucuses was the trouble.
Without the privilege of placing
wagons ON the street Mr.. Bockhorni
could not accommodate farmers.
and could not successfully manage
the hotel, so it will he plainly seen
that the threat Of Alderman Martin
had an important bearing on
whether he should remain IL bust
ness in Little Falls.
The result is, according to Mr..
BockhOrni's version of the matter,
that he has been obliged to quit
business in Little Falls because his
course in politics has not met the
applOval of Alderman Martin.
Comment on such a condition in n
community is unnecessary.
