L. N. Scott, manager Of the METROPOLITAN
opera house returned yesterday morning
from New York, where he went to add sew
eral theatrical attractions to those already

secured for the next few months which had
not already been booked, Mr. Scott made

Mr.. Scott states that there are at present
in New York a goodly number of first-class
attractions holding the boards.
Speaking Of the boycott which was placed
on the Metropolitan shortly after his de-
parture for the East, Mr.. Scott said:
The statements contained in the card bow

Hennepin and Ramsey County Com
missiOners Meet Secretly

missioneFs Meet Secretly,
The county commissioners Of Ramsey
ana hennepin counties were in session
nearly all day yesterday behind locked
doors They met in the county commits
siCners' room at the court house. They
have designs on the legislature
The closest secrecy was maintained,
not only regarding the purposes Of the
meeting, but respecting the very ex-
istence of the meeting itself. All of
the Ramsey county commissioners were
present save Chairman Doran, while
the Hennepin board was represented by
three out of the five members.
The purpose of the conference is to
unite in am effort to secure what the
commissioners Of the two biggest coun-
ties in the state in population CON
ceive to be much needed legislation ),
They would like, for instance, to have
bill passed raising their salaries to a
figure they deem adequate to compen-
safe them for the performance of their
orerOus official duties. The Ramsey
county commissioners insist that $500
q year each, is not a sufficient COM
persatiOn for all the work they do. es-
pecially for the time and labor expend-
ed by them in inspecting country roads
and bridges. Their brethren from Hen
nepin are equally dissatisfied with the
$500 a year each Of them receives for
his services. They look upon 81, 200 per
annum as more appropriate figure
with which to measure their value to
the county.
Consequently the commissioners pro-
pose to prepare and submit to the Iegis-
lature a bill, general in form, of course.
which, If passed, is expected to greatly
increase the efficiency Of the present
county boards.
The commissioners also desire Iegis
lation that will, they declare, help
along the cause of good roads In other
words, they want authority to spend
more money on the county roads. To
accomplish this without materially in
creasing the total expenditure Of the
counties, they propose that the appro-
priatiOns allowed the country super
vtsOrs be correspondingly cut down.
These matters were exhaustiveIy dis
cCssed ait yesterdays secret meeting.
and before the commissioners adjourn
ed a committee on legislation was an
pointed. But the legislature will not
be approached until at least one more
meeting is held.

ker from dispOsing Of or selling any Of

chambers at 10 a. m tomorrow
The petitioner alleges that on Nov.
Il, 1896, the Columbia Shoe company
executed and delivered a promissory
note for $500 to the Bank of Mime
sofa which note is now in the hands of
the petitioner. The petitioner further
says that Maria Winker and w. j.
Walker Endorsed said note, and that

Her doctor says, "cheer up, you have
dyspepsia; you'll be all right soon"
But she doesn't get all right" She
grows worse day by day, till all at once
she realizes that distressing female
complaint is esta blished
Her doctor has made a mistake.
She has lost faith in him; hope van
ishes; then comes the brooding, NOR
bid, melancholy, everlasting BLUES.
Her doctor, if he knew, should have
told her and cured her, but he did not,
and she was allowed to suffer. By
chance she came across one Of Mrs.
Pinkham's books, and in it she found
her very symptoms described and an
explanation Of what they meant. Then
she wrote to Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn,
Mass, for advice, feeling that she was
telling her troubles to a woman.
Speedy relief followed, and vigorous
health returned.
Lydia d. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound instantly asserts its curative
powers in all those peculiar ailments
of women. 1t has been the standby
of intelligent American women for
twenty years, and the story recited
above is the true experience of hun
drods Of women, whose letters Of
gratitude are to be found on file in
Mrs. Pinkhan's library.
