No artist at any time has taken his
work more seriously. A bundle Of let
tiers addressed by Collins to a London
editor, which now lies before us,
abundantly illustrates this point. From
the careful corrections in his proof and
his alarm lest any alteration should be
made by another hand, we learn how
thoroughly considered was every line
Of his stories and how significant every
syllable. The following passage (Which
has not hitherto seen the light), on a
subject near the heart Of all editors
who cater for the family, is particular.

DID M'CLOSKY'S TURN.
Mr.. Webber "'Threw Down" the In
dulGent Police

The prosperous looking individual
who caused the arrest Of Bette Woods
and Lilly White, two colored women,
Friday night, on the charge of hav-
ing robbed him of $40 while he was
enjoying their hospitality in a house
on Ninth, near Jackson street, and
whose name the police so kindly with
held from the newspapers for fear that
he might be somebody with a pull, .
returned the favor in the municipal
court yesterday by giving the obliging
officers the 'hurl'' and leaving them
with two prisoners on their hands
against whom they can prove nothing.
In other words, the solid citizen from
Milwaukee, on second thought, did not
care for the nOtOriety which he might
attain through the case, and failed to
put in an appearance to prosecute the
women. The police were mad clear
through when affairs took this turn,
after their considerate treatment of the
man, and at once secured a bench war
rant for his arrest. The case against
the women was continued until Mon
day.
The object Of so much solicitation
concerning his fair name at the hands
of the police was not politician, as
was at first supposed, but Frank Web
Der, of Milwaukee, Wis, said to be a
prosperous resident of the Cream
City visiting st. Paul on a business
mission. His influence" however .

reached with a bench warrant, as the

which he used them after their kind

ship Continuing.

Unless some unforeseen obstacle arlS-
es, the receivers of the Bank of Mime
sofa, with the willing assistance of the
depoSitorS. will be able to reOrganiZe
that institution on a basis which prom
iSeS to realize to the full the resources
which it holds, and which under
winding up of its affairs must be dis
posed of at a sacrificial discount.
Already depositors with balances of
over 500, 900 to their credit have signed
the articles Of agreement looking to
the reorganization, which provides that
they shall take % per cent of their de-
posits in stock in the reorganized. bank
The remainder of the deposits will be
paid off in long time paper, payable in
one, two or three years.
Hiler H. Horton, in whose Office the
depositOrs' agreement is on file, and
where it can be seen and signed by
any of the depositors who have not
| already signed it, stated yesterday that
the committee of the depOsitors had
made a thorough investigation Of the
schedules of the bank, and in view of
the immense amount of real, ,estate~rep-
resented in the table of assets had
determined that it would be Wiser to
delay the settlement until such time as
this realty could be disposed of advan-
tageously. I'VE 'fope,," continued Mr.
Horton, Ito s-depositors, dollar for
dollars. We have perfected a plan Of
reorganization which has been submit
ted to as many of the large ,deposit@rs
as we have been able to reach Up
to the present time all have approved
the plan and signed the agreement to
reorganize.
THE judgment Of the committee is
that the salvation of the depositors de
pends entirely on the ability to reor-
ganize the bank. The expense Of ad-
m1nistration, under the plan of .reer-
ganization, will be many thousand dol
lars less than under the receivers. We
will have plenty of time to nurse the
assets and dispose of them in the best
market
Under the basis Of reorganization,
we will issue longtime certificates.
bearing per cent interest. These be-
come absolutely good collateral sas
soon as issued in any bank of the city
for nearly their face, and they would
be good collateral in the .reorganized
bank. The depOsitors therefore, would
not have to wait a great length Of
time to secure their deposits by plac-
ing the certificates as security for their
notes." ->.-' -, --~~5~.
Mr.. Horton thought that a saving of
fully $4,000 could be made if the bank
was run by its own, officers instead of
the receivers, which saving, would be
enough TO pay 2 per, cent interest on
all the deposits Judging from the
amount received by receivers, in other
matters ora like nature, Mr. Horton
placed the annual salary of the re-
ceivers at $4,000 each, which, with $10,-
600 for the attorney Judge Young, and
$4,000 for the expenses Of administra-
ton, footed up $4,000

SOME ONE HAD BLUNDERED
Guy Lamb Finds u City Police Bala-
kIaVa.

Guy Lamb, a young man living with
his parents at Castle Rock, Dakota
county, was arrested by the local police
yesterday afternoon and after being
kept in custody for nearly two hours,
was released, he claims, without the
slightest explanation except that mis-
take had been made. According to the
statement of the young man the police
authorities would give him no salts
faction when he demanded why he had
been subjected to arrest without ap-
parent cause and when he asked who
had lodged information against him he
was told the name of the person was
not known. The police informed him
that he was apDrehended upon infor-
nation received from Castle Rock but
he claims, refused to allow him to see
the message, in order that he might
hold the sender responsible for false
arrest He remained about the central
station some time after his release
but could gain no information as to
why he had been placed in SO unde-
sireabie a position.
AS matter of fact the affair has the
appearance of a bungle somewhere in
the proceedings and young Lamb is Of
the opinion that ignorance is pleaded
by the local authorities to avoid any
responsibility in the matter He was
arrested, 1t seems, upon the request of
Mrs. P. L. Wager, a neighbor, living
at Castle Rock, who came to st. Paul
yesterday and informed the local police
that young Lamb had left home to
drive to the city and had in his pos
session a set of double harness which
had been stolen from her husband
The Ducas street station was instruct
ed to keep look out for the youth
and as he reached the high bridge at
2:30 in the afternoon, he was taken
Into custody After being kept at the
West side station a short time he was
sent across the river in charge of an
officer and when it was found he was
innocent of the charge against him, al
lowed to go. Lamb says he has no idea
why Mrs. Wager should have had him
arrested and that the police refuse to
either affirm or deny that she lodged
information against him.
Chief Goss stated that Lamb was
not arrested but was simply "detain-
ed for the purpose Of investigation
but the young man thought it a dis
tinction without a difference when he
had been interrupted in his journey
and taken to two different police sta
tions in the custody of an officer.

FIRST AUTHORS READING.
Verse, VerancuIar and Narrative
Fiction!

Mrs. Ruth McEnery Stuart, John
Kendrick Bangs and Edward W'TowD-
send, three popular authors, read Sc
leCtions from their own works at tbs
Peoples church last night. The enter.
tainment afforded by the programme,
can be measured by the natural in
terest and pleasure experienced in
hearing a clever writer read his own
writings. If the clever writer be hap
PLY clever reader, the pleasure be-
comes twofold. 1t cannot be said that
the enjoyment Of last evenings oente ere
tainment partook of this character.
With all respect to the three authors.
whose books have lightened and
frightened many a dark and weary
hour, they are but ordinary. erea d.,rs.
whose efforts in interpreting their own
works verge on the nronotonous after
each has been heard once. Each an
peared twice last night
OF the three, Mrs. Stuart read with
the most expression, though SUFFERING
with hOarSeness. MI Bangs adouted
a conversational tone inadequate for
the Peoples church, and ratified off
his amusing sketches with a volubiliiy
that often Obscured the salient word.
Mr. Townsend impaired some dramatic
expression to his readings, but left
much to be desired.
The audience, which was of goOdly
proportions, considering the unfayOra-
bic weather, had nc license to be dis
appointed-if, indeed. they were-for
they could not reasonably expect to
find trained speakers, elocutionists and
actors in professional writer's. The
union of such talents is not common,
James Whitcomb Riley, who will ap-
pear at the Peoples church two weeks
hence, is one of the notable executions.
Mr.. Townsend opened the programme
with selection from ''Chimmie Fad
den, that wherein Chinmie extols the
/ virtues and cleverness Of Her Grace.
| the Duchess of Fadden"
Mrs. Stuart followed with 'Moriah's =
! Mo'nin',' that delightful sketch in
which the colored widow, .Moriah, after
cne months mourning over her de-
parted husband, decides to marry a
widower. but recently bereaved him

Mr. Townsend returned and retaliat-
ed on Mr. Bangs with the remark that

Mr.. Townsend read two selections from
| his story IA Daughter OF the Tene-
ments," the first describing the. meet
ing at a swell affair at the HazeIhurst
house of Tom Lyons, the artist. and
