tain Provost Oh the sick List.


A number of the customs officers are on
the sick list The most serious case is that
of Samuel ]. Ruddell. Deputy Surv. yor of
the Port, who lives at 1870 Waller street.
For long time past Mr.. Ruddell has been
i'll, and at one time it was feared he would
be obliged to absent himself from his
duties on account OF pneumonia. He
rallied from this, but yesterday morning
he was stricken with vertigo. The Deputy
Surveyor was preparing to visit the steamer
Acapulco and had about completed his
bath when the illness came upon him. At
first it was supposed to be apoplexy, but
the attending physician states it is no
worse than vertigo and that Mr.. Ruddell
will be out in q few days.
Captain Provost, who is connected with
the P ort Wardens office, is also seriously
i'll, suffering from an attack of partial
paralysis.
Deputy United States Naval Officer E..
w. Maslin is confined 10 his home under
the doctors care. He recently sprained
his knee and the injury has taken serious
and painful turn.

NO PRIVATE SNAP.

The publishers of this paper have
always contended that public records
and papers, on file in the various Of
fees of the court house of any county,
or at the State capitol, are public doc
uments, and as such we're open to in
spection by any person, whether in
terested or otherwise.
J. L. Byram, or his deputy in the
clerk of courts Office, has frequently
refused a representative of this paper
the privilege of inspecting the mar
riage record, as we'll as other papers
in his Office. On Tuesday of last week,
after refusal on the part of Byram
it was decided to make a test case and
see whether the statutes of this State
are, or are not to be obeyed. On sug-
gestion of County Attorney Clague
Mr.. Schmahl of this paper stepped
into the clerks Office and asked for
the privilege of inspecting the papers
in the Osher divorce case, which had
been sent to the clerks Office on q
change of venue from Hennepin coun.
ty, secured by Mr.. Clague, attorney
for the defense. Mr.. Byram refused
the inspection, in the presence oi
Chas. Fleischer. Messrs. Baldwin

WEATHER CROP REPORT.

The general summary of the weekly
weather crop report for the week end
ing Tuesday says all varieties of
weather have occurred during the
week, which began with cool spell,
attended by rain, snow and sleet, and
ended warm, with showers generally
accompanied by thunder. The excess
of moisture, amounting between half
an inch and. an inch and a quarter
has caused the top soil to become too
wet to be worked and but very little
seeding has been done anywhere dur
ing the week and in the north two
thirds of the State none whatever.
Creeks and sloughs have more water
in them than for several years back
and the roads are very muddy, being
almost impossible. Dry weather is
now needed and the farmers are i'm
patient to get to work in their fields.
Although it is too early to be sure
regarding fruit, winter grain and
grasses, it is generally thought they
have come through the winter in
good snaps. Garden peas and
spinach were plantrd last week by
some in Hennepin county. The run
of maple sap has been improved by
the rains. Grass and winter rye have
started nicely in the south half of the
State, but the ground is yet brown in
the north half and still covered with
patches of snow.

Harriott & Patterson we're consulted
in the matter, and as result in the
afternoon, in the presence of H. L.
Beecher, another demand was made
for the privilege of inspecting the pa
pers. Byram again refused.
On Wednesday affdavits were pre-
pared by the law firm, one by Mr..
Schmahl, repeating the Kenney re-
fusal on March "a and the Byram re-
fusals on the forenoon and afternoon
of April 7th, and another by Mr..
Beecher confirming the incident on
the afternoonsof April 9TH, with a
prayer that mandamus be issued
compelling Byram to produce the
records of his Office for the inspection
of Mr.. Schmahl during all office
hours. The afidavits and prayer we're
presented to Judge Webber Thurs
day. That official stated that he had
never granted peremptory writ of
mandamus without the knowledge of
both parties, notwithstanding that the
law was plain, but that if Mr.. Patter-
son would draw up an alternative writ
made returnable on May 5th, the first
day of the May term of court in Red
wood county, he would sign the same.
AS result, the writ was prepared by
Mr.. Patterson on Friday and signed

A Mr.. Patterson. of Redfeld, S. D.,
was in the city during a portion OF
last week, and, we understand, decid-
ed to move his general stock of goods
from that town to this city. It is
stated that he rented the O'Hara
building next to Schmahl & J@hnings
hardware store for his purpose.
The siege of rainy weather ended
Tuesday afternoon, when the clouds
broke and disappeared. The after
noon and evening was very warm.
Wednesday morning dawned beauti-
fully The streets and roads COM
menced drying up and seeding became
general. Aweek of similar weather will

postponed until next Tuesday. The

improving and will recover. They
we're unable, however to be present at
the examination set for Tuesday and
hence the postponement. Bott has
given bonds for his appearance next
Tuesday.
