POSTMASTER CASTLE HAPPY.
Got What He Asked For and Is Sat
isfied.

Postmaster Castle returned home
from Washington city yesterday wear
ing a broad smile. The smile was in
spired by the success with which he
achieved the object Of his visit. He
went to Washington to ~lay before the
department his reasons for asking for
an increase in the number of letter car
riers, and he did this so satisfactorily
that he has been granted an increase
of seven, air he asked fore zone Of
5 these is to ACKNOWLEDGEMENT will be
put on Feb. 1. The other six are to
be added on April 1.
Capt Castle spent day examining
the carrier system of the post office
at Washington, and also stopped at
Chicago on his way home and ex-
amined the system there. He recon-
mended to the department the ap-
pointment of a superintendent, to be
appointed at Washington, whose duty
it should be to gather information con-
corning the various systems in the
different offices, and report thereon
with a view to establishing uniformity.
AS it is, each postmaster decides on his
own SYSTEM
Capt Castle says, speaking Of poll
miration especially in the South and
tics, that, Senator Da gis is constantly
gaining ground, his resolution on the
Monroe doctrine having won him adj

MADE THEM CLIMB.
Why Girls in a Shoe Factory Nearly
Struck.

Employees of the factory are for
hidden to use this entrance" Such is
the sign upon one door of Tarbox,
Schliek & Co.'S wholesale shoe house
at Wacouta and Third streets. The
sign had caused almost as much woe as
the wrath of Achilles, for the door
leads to the freight elevator, which,
until few days ago, awkwardly but
successfully conveyed to their factory
room on the fifth floor about eighty
industrious but giggling girls. Very
recently, during the absence of Mr.
Schliek, the manager of the factory,
it was suddenly conceived that twenty
girls on a freight elevator, which is
destitute Of outside ratings, might be
SO happy on occasions as to push each
other off. Therefore the elevator
was closed to the factory employees,
men as well as women, and the girls
have had to walk four flights Of stairs
Against this they complained bitterly
They even threatened seriously to
strike yesterday at 1 p. M, but a COM
mittee Of three was informed by Mr.
Schliek, who has returned, that the
firm would allow the girls to use the
elevator, providing the girls would for
mally relieve the firm of liability for
personal injuries. The girls are dis
cussing the proposition. They have not
struck, and it is believed that they will
again giggle today in joyous crowds
UP their adored, unwieldy elevator.

col. KlEFER'S BILL
1T IS HIGHLY INDORSED BY A
MEETING OF LEADING
CITIZENS.
SUBTREASUnY NECESSARY
TO THE TRANSACTION OF THE
BUSINESS OF THE NORTH
WEST.
SUBTREASURY
COMMERCIAL CLUB GATHERING,
And Bankers and Presidents of COM
merciaI Bodies Take a Positive
Stand on the Bill.

The establishment of a subtreasury
in st. Paul, mention of which has
been made Of late in the Geographic
columns of the local newspapers, was
the subject Of discussion before meet
ing Of the bankers, presidents of the
commercial bodies and other prominent
financial men of the city at the Com
mercial club rooms yesterday after
noon. The gathering was informal In
man, and E. Vanish, president of the
Commercial club was secretary.
No resolutions were adopted, but all
present entered into a free discussion
Of the bill to be introduced in congress
by Congressman Kiefer. The sense of
the meeting was that the people Of st.
Paul were paying out large sums every
year for exchanges and the transporta-
ton of gold and silver coin in and
out Of the city. For this reason the
establishment of the subtreasury
would mean the annual saving Of much
money, and in. this way would prove
a great benefit to the city, as we'll as
to the contributing territory. Chicago
is the nearest city having a subtreas-
ury, and all the business Of the North
west is done from that place. The es-
Establishment Of one in ST. Paul would,
1t appeared TO the meeting, also be a
saving to the government, and 1t would
only be q question of a few years I'M
til the United States would be COM
PEELED to establish subtreasury in the
Northwest, AS the country develops
and business increases 1t will not be
very long until the burden will be too
great for the Chicago subtreasury. ST.
Paul is, for many req sons, the place
most suitable for it's location, and the
meeting believed that Congressman
Kiefer's bill would be passed.
w. d. Kirk, T. L. Sshurmeier, E. V.
Smalley and e. Yannish made ad-
dresses indorsing the BILL and pointing
out the advantage of it's passage to
st. Paul and the Northwest. On mo-
ton, the presidents of the Commercial
club, jobbers' union and chamber of
commerce were requested to ask their
respective organizations to pass reso-
lutions indorsing the bill The bill pro-
vides that the subtreasury be located in
the new federal building; that $4,000
be appropriated for fitting up suitable
quarters, and that there be employed
an assistant treasurer, with a salary
of $4,000 per annum; a cashier, with a
salary Of $4,000; bookkeeper, with
salary of S1J800;g a clerk, with a salary
of 81, 500; a messenger, with a salary Of
$500. and two watchmen, with salaries
Of 5000 each.

An Up-to-Date Hand Book for the
Year 1895.

Year 1895.
Those who think of an almanac as a
flmsy pamphlet given away nv DING

medicine. will be surprised and deIiebt-
ed when they inspect a copy of the NV
Atias-Almanac and Cyclopedia, which
this paper has provided for the con-
venience and information of it's readers
and their friends.
To start with, the book is the largest
ever produced in this country under the
auspices of a newspaper; it contains
432 pages, and these are double the
size of any other Almanac issued But
its distinctive feature. which places 1t
above and beyond all others, is found
In the fact that 1t contains 4S maps
printed in four colors and comprising
every state and territory, besides
Canada and Central America. These
maps are new and have been en-
graved especially for the Atlas-AImanao
by the well-known atlas maker. George
+. Cram. They show all countries and
railroads, and are invaluable for refer
ence, practically taking the place of an
atlas costing from $40 to 500 The sta
tistical portion of the work treats Of
the National Government. State Gov
ernments. Politics. Election returns,
Agriculture, Manufactures, Mining,
Finance. Education, Religion. Law.
Sports. Society. the Home, besides a
large amount of information regarding
domestic and foreign affairs Every
page or the book bears the work of ex-
pense ana 1t has cost more to produce
1t than any Year Book ever published
IN America, yet it will nevertheless he
supplied to readers and their friends at
the nominal price of % cents per COW
The maps alone are worth many times
this amount, and the entire work will
be found invaluable to every reader

frederick j. E. Woodbridge, professor
OF philosophy at the state university
me Introductory lecture delivered
Jan. 16, discussed the general nature
OF aesthetics, especially with refer
ence to literature and art. Last night
Prof Woodbridge spoke of the history
OF aeStheticISm in ancient times and
in the middle ages The chief expo
nents Of aesthetic theories among the
anc1ents were Plato, Socrates and Ar
1stotle- Plato viewed beauty as he did
everything else, from the transcenden-
ia! standpoint. Ideal beauty was some
thing far above and completely de-
tached from the material things where
In appeared only faint suggestions of
the ideal. Socrates, of course, adopted
the moral and utilitarian standpoint
Nothing was really beautiful unless
1t was either good or useful. Aristo-
tie, On the contrary, set forth the err
rorS OF his predecessors, and although
failing, unfortunately, to treat aesthet-
les as thoroughly as he had discussed
many other important subjects, yet he
mad laid down profound and impreg-
nable propositions. Beauty could not
be simply ideal, because our only con-
ceptions of its abstract PROJECTIONS
We're derived exclusively from material
OBJECTS. 1t was indeed an inherent
quality. Beauty was not goodness,
because goodness always implies activ-
1ty. 1t was not usefulness, because a
thing is useful in proportion as it creates
desire for possession. Nature how
ever. was often incapable of realizing
her own evident ideal, and it was the
function of art to understand the in
tention of nature and to complete the
work in which nature had been thwart-
ed. With the later development of
'Neo Platonism in the middle ages, the
theories of Aristotle and Socrates had
sunk into the background, while the
abstract localities of Plato were merged
by the medieval mystics into ultra
transcendentaI visions of the beautiful
in God and in the things of the world
beyond. The history of aesthetics dur
ing the renaissance was omitted last
night owing to the length of the lee
ture. This period will be treated in
the third lecture to be delivered Feb.

TOOK TINCTURE OF IODINE.
Miss Fanny Brown Wearies of Her
Existence.

Existence.
Miss Fanny Brown, housekeeper of
the Gem hotel, at 412 Jackson street,
tried to end her life yesterday. Miss
Fanny is a handsome brunette Her
age is tWenty-SiX. The Gem hotel is a
lodging house where the guests are not
always in bed by 10 o'clock. Miss
Fanny. therefore, had not retired at 4
a. m. yesterday. She was feeling par
ticularly Respondent as the result of
bad health. This habitual melancholy
so weighed upon Miss Browns spirits
yesterday morning that she went to
her room and secured an ounce bottle
of tincture of iodine which she had
been using as linament on her chest.
She then poured the bottleful of poison
into glass of water regardless Of the
lurid red skeleton upon the label Miss
Brown drank the novel mixed drink
and lay down upon the bed. At once
the poison began to burn her throat
and her head swan. When Joe Mel
son, the proprietor, accidentally dis
covered her and asked what she had
done, Miss Brown could scarcely ans
wer:
I've swallowed the whole bottle
full"
Nelson Immediately sent for Dr. Fin
nell. who was present within twenty
minutes. He was followed by DIR.
Brimha1l, who had been summoned by
Lieut.. Sexton. Miss Brown was uncon-
scious. and rapidly growing cold. Ten
minutes later. said the doctor, his pa
tient would have been beyond aid. An
tidotes quickly administered, however,
slowly revived the dying woman By
$50 she was again conscious and last
night she showed little evidence Of her
attempt at self destruction.

PROMISED A LOOP.

street Car Connections With the
Union Depot Assured.
1t is now settled almost without
doubt that loop street railway line
viii be constructed, connecting the
union depot with the retail district of
the city.
1t Will be remembered that at meet
ing of the board of directors of the
Commercial club several weeks ago
special committee of five was appoint
ed to confer with the officials Of the
Twin City Rapid Transit company re-
lative to building the line. Since that
time the committee has held several
conferences with Supt. Smith and Vice
President Goodrich, and these officials
have practically promised to construct
the new line as soon as spring opens.
One Of the members of the COM
nlttee said to a G o reporter yes
terday: you can state that we have
received such encouragement from the
street railway people as to make us
feel confident that our request will be
granted, and before May 1 cars will
be running on the new line. This con-
cession upon the part of the COM
pany is greatly appreciated by us, and
VIII be OF benefit to every retail mer-
chant In the city. 1 honestly. believe
that there are great many country
people VINO 90 not come to ST. Paul
to do their trading because the street
car Accommodations between the depot
and the retail district are so in
adequate. st. Paul is the only city
Of Importance in the United States that
has no street car line at the depotS"
The promise of the company is
general and no specific route has been
decided upon, although the company
will probably build as suggested by the
special committee. The route is as
follows: Starting at the corner of
Third and Sibley up the former to
Robert, thence to Fifth, thence to
Slbley and thence to Third. In refer
ence to this route two plans are talked
of; one to run regular loop cars and
the other to have the cars of several
of the lines to go around the loop
Either plan will overcome the present
inadequacy.

Taking Rest.

The attention of H. F. Newell, Sec
rotary of the Home Savings and Loan
association of Minneapolis, was called
to the statement of the affairs of the
concern yesterday. and Mr. Newell
said:
1.-THE article is misleading in some
respects. 1t represents that the losses
which are reported to our stockhold-
ers in the annual report for the pc
riod ending Dec. 80, 1895, were recently
incurred, while such is not the case. AS
a matter of fact, the property of the
association is probably worth some
what more than it was a year ago,
when we took hold; the reason for this
being that we have endeavored to take
good care of the property, make re-
pairs and get it in shape to obtain
rentals. The association Is not now

STATE DEEDS AsTRAY.
Only Four Such Documents Filed at

There has been a great deal of care
lessness, according to State Treasurer
Koerner, in regard to the securing of
deeds for the property owned by the
state, especially that which has been
acquired by purchase for occupancy by
public institutions of one sort and an
other There are not more than four
of these Deeds" said Mr. Koerner yes

dig them up, but / am finding it diff
ficult job. That is, it is slow. 1 do not
anticipate that there will be any legal
obstacles in the way of securing ev-
erything we want, and it is possible
that even without possession of the
deeds, the state could go on indefinitely
in perfect safety. 1t seems, however,
that the state should be at least as
careful as the ordinary private citizen
in this respect, and, so far as possible,

1t is not anticipated that there will
