ward. called on the mayor yesterday
relative to the order issued by the
mayor which prohibits any female per-
formers from appearing at Tankenoff's
concert hall. Col LowenStein held
private audience with Mayor Doran,
but when he left the executive chamber
he informed Tankenoff that it was no
use, as the mayor had told him that
the order would be inforced and there
was no need to talk about 1t further
Tankenoff feels very sore about the
order, which has been issued against
has saloon while other places are al
lowed to run without any objection.
Tankenoff claims that he has never
allowed any women spectators in the
place, and that is more than can be said
of other resorts of a similar character
which are allowed to run without orders
from the mayor. Friends of Tankenolf
advised him yesterday to go ahead
with his performance and test the mat
ter in the courts. You can't be con-
victed Of violating the mayors orders. 7"
said one Of his friends, land the only
thing they can do is to have you ar
rested for running a disorderly place.
They can't prove this and you will be
discharged, and that will end it." Tan
kenoff shook his head at this piece of
advice, and intimated that he would
send some more of his friends to see If
they could not persuade the mayor to
reScind his order before he laid himself
open to an arrest and trial in the court.

spRINxLnNG AND PAVING.
Matters Considered by the Board OF
Public WORKS.

The assessment for sprinkling dis
trict No. for the season Of 1895 was
confirmed by the board Of public
works yesterday. The total amount
of the assessment is $4,000, although
the board reduced this amount $50
on the showing made by certain prop
erty owners. Charles T. Miller and
ether owners of property on Central
Park place objected to the assessment
against their property on the ground
that the street had not been SprinxIed.
j. H. PeaSe, the sprinkling inspector
who had charge of the district last sea-
son and has also been selected as one
of the corps of inspectors for this
year, was called in. By questioning
the inspector President Copeland
brought out the statement that the
driver OF the team which did the
Sprinkling in the district and the con-
tractor had both informed the officials
that the street had been sprinkled. As
to whether it had been sprinkled the
inspector was not certain. He had in
tended to make reductions at the end
Of the season owing to the residents
complaining that the street was not
Sprinkled, but the schedule had been
made up before his report was turned
in. The board, after hearing the prop
erty owners, ordered the $50 assessed
against the property on the street
stricken from the roll, and also directed
the clerk to reduce the amount allowed
James Forrestal, the contractor, &C
cOrdingly.
The property owners on Edmund
street between Grotto and Victoria
streets objected to the construction Of
a sewer on that street. The estimate
Of the city engineer placed the cost
of the sewer at 81, 1858, or seventy-eight
cents per front foot. AS the owners
were almost unanimously opposed to
the improvement the board decided on
an adverse report.
The paving of Sixth street from Col
lege to Smith avenues was adjourned
to May 8, the board deciding in the
meantime they would inspect the con-
ditiOn of the present pavement. The
estimate of the city engineer showed
that it would cost $500 per front foot
to pave the street with sandstone All
the property owners objected to the
improvement.
Today the board will have a con-
ference with the Warren-Scharff Paw
ing company as to the repairs neces-
sary on Holly, Dayton, Western and
Portland avenues. The inspection made
by the board and the city engineer of
the pavementS show that the repairs to
be made aggregate 1866 square yards,
divided as follows: Holly avenue, ALP
yards; Dayton avenue, 1850 yards;
Western avenue 1,515 yards; Portland
avenue, $3.50 yards.

Yet.
Gov. Clough has not as yet done any
thing toward satisfying the clamoring
candidates for appointiVe positions. In
the Eighth judicial district the four
candidates for judge are T. V. Qvale,
of Willmar; A. J. Volstad, Of Granite
Falls; S. Fl. Hudson, Of Benson, and
s. A. Flarity, of Litchfield. The con-
test is said to be hottest between
Qvale and Volstad. M. J. Bowling
and others are backing Volstad as the
candidate of the young men. The
greatest difficulty they have to over
come is the fact that MIR. Volstad lives
in the same town with Gorham Powers,
the present judge.
Attorney Tarbox, of Wright county,
is the leading candidate for the judge
ship of the new district created from
Wright, Isanti and Anoka counties.
Gov. Clough also has the members Of
six new state commissions to appoint.
The first is the board Of examiners of
horseshoers, to be composed of five
members, one veterinarian two master
horseshOers and two jOurneymen; the
BARRIERS examining board, to be COM
posed of one member recommended by
the BARRIERS union, one employing bar
Der, and one journeyman; the state
commission to supervise and look after
the maintenance Of the drainage
bitches constructed by the state; state
plumbing commission of five; a board
of three to look after the distribution of
bounties for the growth Of flax fiber
and hemp. This board is to be COM
posed of a member Of the state board
of regents, the dean of the school of
agriculture and a practical flax grower.
He did, however, yes, appoint Mrs.
J. r. White, Of this city, as commits
sioner to look after the exhibits made
by the Minnesota colored people at the
Nashville exposition. She will leave the
first of the week.

OPENED CHINA's EYES.
Rev. DIR. COrbett Tells of the Wars
Immediate Effects


The Rev. DR.. Hunter Corbett. Of
Chefoo, China, who will address a mis-
sionary meeting at the House of Hope
church this afternoon and another one
at Central Presbyterian church this
evening, said yesterday in talking
about the relations between China and
the United States, that this country
will have to be careful if it wishes to
secure that part Of the China trade
which naturally belongs to it. He says
that England and France now have the
lions share. but that judicious man
agement will give to the United States
market that will be Of vast benefit
to it's people. DR.. COrbett has spent
thirty-four years at ChefOO, one Of the
principal seapOrts of North China.
He says that the recent war with
Japan has opened the eyes Of the
Chinese to their needs, and that the
next few years will see a rapid de-
velOpment which will mean the pur-
chase of vast quantities of machinery
and produce, which the United States
should be able to furnish at a cost that
would enable its manufacturers and
producers to compete with those Of
any other nations.
DR.. COrbett thinks the political con-
ditiOns in China to be somewhat in
secure. The present dynasty, being a
foreign one and having resOrted to
harsh measures during the war with
Japan, is not much loved by the masses
Of the people. Ii Hung Chang, as the
executive of the emperor, came in for
a generous share of this dislike. The
execution of the generals who failed
to repulse the Japanese was recOg-
niZed as a wrong, and. though it had
the sanction of law, it has not been
forgotten. This restiveness," says DR.
Corbett, would easily result in a
serious outbreak, should capable
leader once get a good footing on
which to work. but the probability OF
this is not great at present"

CO. c. SHOWS UP WE'LL
Fine Drill for the Benefit of In
spector Mccoy.

Lieut.. Mccoy, Of the regular army,
began last night at the armory the
task Of inspecting the infantry COM
panieS of the First regiment stationed
in this city. c company, Capt N. c.
Robinson commanding, held the
boards, and in the presence of a large
and very demOnstrative audience
went through it's PAGES in a highly
creditable manner. There was but one
absentee in the ranks of the f1fty-siX
men when they were drawn up in full
dress uniform for inspection. Col. G.
Nee. Reeve and Lieut.. Col. w. w. Price
Of the First, were present, Capt. Cor
riStOn, of l company, of Minneapolis,
watched the inspection, and on the
floor were the commanding officers of
several of the other local companies
When their arms and accoutrements
had been duly examined, the men
withdrew to the company room, from
which they emerged in an incredibly
short time in fatigue uniform, and
were taken through the manual Of
arms both by and without numbers.
This feature of the work was closely
watched, and the manner in which the
men had been drilled told plainly in
the general accuracy and precision.
Capt. Robinson commanded a drill
squad of sixteen file front, double
rank, the floor being insufficient for
setting up exercises, the bayonet exer-
else, and followed it up with some
exceptionally well executed company
movements in spite of the large crowd
which encircled the armory and ap-
plauded vigorously.
The alignment was good, and all
through the intricate and rapidly
changing maneuvers, there was scarce
ly a skip noticeable even to the watch
full eye Of the inspecting officer.
The squad then showed it's proficien-
cy in the matter of extended order
drill, and platoon movements, and con-
cluded by a second change from fatigue
to heavy marching uniform, consisting
of the regular army hats, leggings,
haversacks, blanket cases and other
paraphernalia of the march.
The soldier boys were highly COM
plimented for the really creditable
showing they made on the floor, and
they have set a good example for their
fellows. who will be inspected during
the rest of the week. AT the conclu-
sion of the inspection Capt. Robinson
was presented by his men with a very
beautiful sword suitably inscribed.
Most of the members participated in
the usual banquet, and merrymaking
following the hard work Company Z
will be inspected this evening.

DORIAN AFTER THE DOGS.
Mayor Instructs Chief Goss to En-
force the Ordinance.

Mayor Instructs Chief GOss to En-
force the Ordinance.
The new dog ordinance passed by tho
council having been approved and pub
nshed, Mayor Doran yesterday issued
the following order to Chief Goss:
Your attention is directed to Ordinance No.
1922, relating to the licensing and muzzling Of
dogs IN the city of St Paul. By the terms
OF this ordinance the members Of the police
force are charged with its enforcement, and
you Will be expected to so instruct them the
muZzling enforcement not being subject to
the operation Of the law until May l. when
suitable arrangements will be made to cap
ture and destroy the unlicensed and unmuz-
ZIed oogs AS l understand the terms Of
TINS law owners or keepers of dogs are liable
to prosecution if they do not surrender the
dogs that have been found running at large
without tag or collar upon the streets parks
or publc places. The intense feeling ex-
listing in our community warrants a Jealous
prosecution Of the crusade against the dog
population. F B. Doran. Mayor.
The mayor, seen yesterday afternoon,
said he had not appointed the dog
catchers as yet, owing to the fact that
a resolution authorizing their appoint
ment would first have to be passed by
the council. s~ z
His honor did not think, after the
resolution was passed by the council,
he would have. any trouble in finding
eleven men to act as dog catchers and
drivers of teams. Chief Goss said the
same measures would be used in en-
forcing the ordinance as in prior years.
Owners of dogs who did not pay a IL
cense would be subject to prosecution
in police court if the animals were seen
running at large ON the streets. Be
tween May 1 and Oct. / owners of dogs
which were allowed on the streets
without muzzles would also be liable to
prosecution in the court
