TROLLEY CAR PARTIES.
Those ON Late Interurbans Not
Really Enjoyable.

Strange as it may seem, it is hardly
safe for a woman to ride on the night
Interurban cars without danger OF
great annoyance from the people who
are wont to patronize those cars after
the first hours Of the evening. 1t used
to be said that the owl" or last car,
which leaves st. Paul at 1901 o'clock,
was the car on which to find a certain
rOWdy class which made itself far from
agreeable to the other occupants of the
car, but it is only too true that now
one taking any car to ST Paul or Min
neapoliS after o'clock in the evening
is apt TO hear and see things which
are particularly lOathsome. plain
drunk is nothing. Not many nights ago
a couple of young men on a car bound
for Minneapolis INDUCED in such ex-
ceedingly vile talk a young man in an
opposite seat accompanying two
women arose and with more force than
grace struck one of the offenders a
blow across the face which made his
nose bleed and nearly knocked his
teeth out. Saturday evening a man
who says he boards at the Ryan, and
IS the representative of certain eX-
press company not unknown in the
Twin Cities, boarded the car at the
Ryan with four women. He was under
the influence of liquor and had some
difficulty in seeing that he must pay
the fare of the women with him. When
the second fare was collected his Ian
guage to the conductor was such the
latter called the man at the motor and
attempted to throw the young man off
the car, which he was privileged to do
according to the rules Of the company.
But the motoneer would not stand by
the conductor for some reason or other
and one Of the women making q de-
cided scene by taking the mans part,
the car was allowed to proceed.
Last Sunday evening an intoxicated
beast of a man occupied a seat on the
IL o'clock car and was in such a condi-
ton half of the women on the car were
sickened by the sight.
These are only a very few of the in
cidents of night rides to or from st.
Paul any evening of the week, and
often a fist fight is the menu served for
the benefit of the passengers, who
Gem to have no way of avoiding such
scenes except by avoiding the late in
terurban cars altogether.

WHERE IS MARsIERs
seventh Street Fruit Dealer Disap-
pears From the City.

Benjamin F. Mariner, who has been
conducting fruit and confectionery
store at AS East Seventh street, has
left the city and also several creditors
who are mourning his absence. Mar,
nler was formerly street peddler, and
last spring opened fruit store on East
Seventh street, near Wabasha A fire
In the building he occupied made re-
building necessity, and he moved to
more cCmmodious quarters at 49, 145
and LAT East Seventh street. He op-
ened there in September, and seemed
to be doing a prosperous business. Sat-
urday morning he told his friends he
was unable to meet his bills and would
have to leave the city. He did so, and
turned what stock he had over to Ja-
cob Fandler, who had a claim against
him for services amounting to $3.50.
Fandler cut prices Saturday afternoon
and realized all but $25 of the amount
due him. The other creditors who had
sold Mariner stock have claims ag-
gregating about $500, and will realize
little or nothing. Mariners friends
claim that he was unfortunate in bust
ness, but all agree that he made a
mistake in leaving the city without
coming to an agreement with his cred
itors. Mariner was single, but has sew
eral brothers and sisters living in the
City. His relatives claim to know moth
Ing about his business.

sMOTHERED In BED.
Sad Death of Johnny Holland, Three
Months Old.

Little Johnny Holland, the three
months-old son Of Mr.. and Mrs. John
Holland, living at 429 East Seventh
street, met a sad death early yester-
day morning, being smothered to death
while asleep beside the slunbering par
ents. The infant had not been we'll
for several days, and Mrs. Holland was
up with him during the night, the last
time shortly after midnight, when the
childs illness seemed to have passed
away, leaving him bright and comfort
able. Both mother and father were
tired out with their nightly vigils of
the past few days, and when they final
ly deemed it safe to get a few hours
sleep, placed the child between them,
SO that in case sickness returned help
would be near at hand. This was the
last known of the infant in life, for
when Mr.. Holland aWoke about 5
o'clock the babe was dead
The parents Of the child are grief
stricken over the death Of their only
son, and are at a loss to account for his
death without their being aware of the
agony which he must have endured. It
seems likely that the child must have
struggled with all Of its tiny strength,
for its arms were twisted in the bed
clothes, while flecks of blood and froth
marked it's face. Blood had flowed from
the baby's nose and mouth and when
lOunQ Dy the ldIn0T the DOQy ndQ
slipped almost to the middle Of the
bed The fact that the parents were
not awakened by the cries of the child
is accounted for by the suppositfon that
it was too completely overcome to make
much if any cutlery, and that they be-
ing tired themselves they failed to no
tice the infants struggles. Both Mr.
and Mrs. Holland are confident that
neither Of them could have crushed the
child by unconsciously lying upon the
little one during the night and feel GER
tain that if it had not been quickly
smothered they would have been awak-
ened by its movements as 1T slept be-
tween them. Coroner Whitcomb was
notified of the ehild's death, and after
an investigation decided 1t to have been
wholly accidental. ~
John Holland. the father Of the child,
is an iron worker employed on the new
capitol building. There are two other
children in the family, both girls, re-
spectively six and four years of age

DETECTIVES FROM ABROAD.
State Legislature VIII BE Asked to
Regulate Them.

heSulute Them.
The state board of corrections and
charities wants a law to provide
that no person from another state or
country can gain a residence in Min
nesota while an inmate of any state
institution.
One case that is particularly hard TO
decide has been referred to Secretary
Hart by the attorney general. 1t ap-
pears that some time ago the Benefit
Association of Northern Pacific Rail-
road Employees brought one of their
number, who had been injured, to the
hospital at Brainerd There it was
found that his injuries We're incurabIe.
He is a helpless cripple, compelled to
go on clutches for the rest of his life
The association has cared for him a
long time, and the members apparentIY
feel that they cannot afford to do so
any longer so they have asked the au-
thorit1es Of Crow Wing county to care
for him. either at the almshouse or
elsewhere. The authorities object. and
believe that he should be cared for by
the Montana people, but there appears
to be no authority for returning the
man to Montana
At the present time. Secretary Hart
says there are seven non-resfdents IN
the Fergus Falls asylum. One came
from Canada and was sent to the hos
pital within forty eight hours after his
arrival in this country Another from
North Dakota was brought up in the
same place within eighteen hours after
arriving in Minnesota,
The new law to be proposed by the
board Of corrections and charities will
provide that non resident paupers and
insane sent into Minnesota may be
sent back from whence they came at
the expense Of the state. AT present
the matter is in the hands of the coun-
ty and township authorities, who dread
the expense of returning these people,
and merely shift them from one place
to another to become a burden upon
the community.

THEOSOPHY AND HYPNOTIsM
Discussed by Countess Wachtm els
ter in Her Local Lectures.

Countess Waclntrneister, who has
been lecturing on theosophy in st.
Paul for the past two weeks, spoke to
a large audience at the rooms of the
St. Paul Theosophieal society, in the
Endtcott building, last evening upon
the subject THE Conscious Universe
and the Evolution Of Man" 1t was
explained by the speaker how the spir-
1t entered into matter and developed
in the atomic state, through the min
eral and vegetable Kingdoms, and
finally through the human family. All
through this development, conscious
ness liberated itself more fully, evil
dencing it's greatest progress in the
human family. 1t was shown how, ac-
cording to theosophy,s man in his con-
tact with the domestic animals, by
his reason Influenced theirs, subduing
the brutes and directing them as he
desired. There were seven races. the
speaker said. and in the last three
and a half of these 1T was asserted
that the, divine spirit showed itself In
the form Of individuality. The whole
object of creation was divine con-.

lives this consciousness was developed
until finally when divinity was reached
