EXHIBITION OF ART.
Everything in Readiness for the
Scribner Collection Show.

Preparations for the Scribner art exhibit,
the finest of it's kind in existence, are about
complete and 1t will be thrown open to the
public for the first time Saturday morning at
o'clock, and remain open until 10 p. m. The
first view will be had by the associate mem
bers and students of the St. Paul School of
Fine Arts this afternoon. This view is es-
pecially and exclusively for their benefit, as
the exhibit is of particular interest to them,
and they desire an uninterrupted inspection,
hence the private view today
The exhibition will last several days and
the public will have ample opportunity to in
spect one Of the most superb collections of its
kind gotten together in this country.
Admission may be had at either the Fourth
or Minnesota street entrances, and the exhibit
will be held in room 106 on the main floor of
Newspaper Row. A small admission fee OF
% cents will be charged the public
The exhibition is given under the auspices
of the st. Paul School of Fine Arts, and will
be under the direction of different members
of the board of directors each day. Nothing
but the Seribner collection will be on exhi-
bition here. The collection has arrived and
it is exquisite in the extreme. Many of the
students of the st. Paul school have prepared
elaborate and original designs, but these will
be put on exhibition in the conspicuous show
windows of the city, leaving this exhibit ex-
clusively to the Scribner production.

RESULTS WE'RE FEW.
AIdermanic Committee on Streets
Only Settled One Question.


The committee on streets of the
board Of aldermen held a session yes
terday afternoon and decided to post
pone action on the Milwaukee railroad
proposition until after meeting of the
members Of the board of aldermen had
discussed the matter. Aid. Kenny
voiced the sentiments of the other
members by saying they had heard all
that the lawyers on both sides had to
say, and what the aldermen wanted to
do now was to get together and have
quiet talk on the propositions among
themselves.
T. J. McDermott appeared before the
committee for the purpose of having
the bicycle ordinance amended so as
to prohibit the riding of wheels on Dale
street between Carroll and Minnehaha
streets. Mr.. McDermott said that
Dale street was thoroughfare for cy,
clists, and as a majority Of the wheel
men rode on the sidewalks the prac-
tice was menace to the lives of chill
dren living on the street The ordi-
nance was referred back to the city
attorney to make several changes and
embOdy in the one ordinance all the
features Of the several now on the
books.
A committee from the Tenth ward
appeared and demanded that a sema-
phOre and a fiagman be placed at the
Smelling avenue crossing of the North
ern Pacific road. The crossing was a
dangerous one, the committee stated
owing to the street car tracks being
laid on a decline from both sides Of the
track They advised that all railroad
trains be required to stop at the cross
ing. The aldermanic committee decid :
ed that gates would be the proper thing
at the crossing. and viii 50 recommend.
The chairman OF the delegation
thought that gates were all right, but
the semaphore better, as it would stop
trains, while the gates would only stop
the street cars.
The committee decided to recon-
mend that the contracts for sweeping
the streets paved with asphalt be let
to the wOrkmen who had the contracts
last year instead of in one contract
The board Of public works will be no
titled OF the recommendation.
The Kenny ordinance, which is a sub
stitute for the Shepard street car or
dinance, was to be reported back
to the council without recommendation
Aid. Sanb0rn, however, requested that
it be laid over until the next meet
ing, owing to his not being familiar
with the provisions. This was agreed
to.
The contracts for street sprinklins
awarded by the board of public works
were referred to Aids Kenny and San
born to investigate as to how the price
compared with the contracts for last
wear.

The members of the police force can put
their clubs back in their belts. They needn't
go around any longer spitefully hitting the
lamp posts and brick walls for Prof Curtis
didn't mean to say that other night that
they were getting too much salary. II had
no idea" said Prof. Curtis yesterday, that
the members of the police department would
take my remarks they d'd. Probably the
remarks were ill-advsed at this time. but
they were made with not the slightest inten-
ton in the world of antagonizing the police
department. 1t was not my intention in
citing the comparison to have any one under
stand that l wish to the salary of any
policeman cut, but to see the salary Of the
teacher raised"

policemen, she was, just the same, extremely

POOL MAY NOT BREAK.
General Passenger agent Cnliaway's
Opinion of the situation.

There seems to be a difference of opinion
among the railway men here as to whether
there is really any danger of a dissolution of
the Chicago Minneapolis passenger pool and
a likelihood of the withdrawal of the Mime
apolis & ST. Louis road from the agreement.
The 500 line is not in the pool at all, and
consequently it's attitude regarding the inter
nal strife of the pool should be an impartial
one. Said General Passenger Agent Galloway,
of the 500 line, yesterday
q do not think the pool will break up.
There are many inharmonious interests in
volved, as there always are in a big pool,
but the chairman has a wonderful faculty of
harmoriZing antagonistic interests, and he
has succeeded in holding the lines together
so far, l think that he will be able to do so
in the future. l should not like to see that
pool dissolve, for it would mean trouble for
all the lines, and that is very undesirable, es-
pecially at present"

SLICED OFF A BIT.
Otherwise February Garbage Bill
Finds Smooth Smiling.

The committee on claims of the board
of aldermen held a short session yes
terday afternoon and passed a batch OF
claims. The February bill of Fielding
& Shepley for the collection and re-
mOval of garbage, was passed on with
out the usual debate. The health COM
missioner reported 1876 failures which
had been properly investigated and
found correct. This knocked $40 from
the bill, but Mr.. Shepley made no
serious objection, except that some Of
the places reported were deducted from
the January bill.
The c. G. Lewis Coal company sent
in bill for two cords of sawed and
split maple wood, furnished the small ?
pox infirmary at $3.50 per cord. This
price the committee thought a trif1e
high. The company charged 50 for
extra haul in delivering the fuel and
this was more than the committee
could stand for and it was ordered
stricken off.
