WILL WAIT UNTIL SPRING.
Warren-Scharf Company Cannot
Get It's Estimate Now.


Property owners on Summit avenue
from Selby avenue to Dale streets
appeared before the board Of public
works yesterday, and secured an ad,
JOurnment Of the allowance Of an est1-
mate Of $500 to, the Warren-Scharff
company. The adjournment was based
on g. resolution presented by Gen. Bend
which set forth, that as the board of
public works was the sole Judges Of
the condition Of the. pavement and the
contract provided, that at the time
one-ha1f of the reserve was paid. the
pavement should be in good condition
as when laid, an adjournment should
be taken Until the weather would
permit an examination.
The board, through it's president.
admitted that mo examination Of the
pavement had been made by them as
board and unanimously voted to
hold back the payment of the money
until the weather would permit Of
an examination
The representative of the Warren
Scharff company protested against any
such action. on the ground that the
present winter was a very severe one
on asphalt pavenTents, and that in the
spring the condition Of the pavement
might not be as good as it was on
the date when the ten years expired,
This date, he contended, was in Dec
ember last. The board took the same
view Of the matter as the Dropertv
owners, and will wait until spring,
or until such time as the snow is gone
to make an inspection, and report on
the condition Ofthe pavement

CARRIAGE SPECIFICATIONS.
Rules Which the Next Contractor
WIFI Have to- Follow

After two hours discussion yester-
day the special joint committee on gar
bage, assisted by City Engineer Rund
lett and Health Commissioner Stone.
completed the specifications under
which bids for collecting and remov-
ing the garbage will be advertised for.
The contract will be for the period Of
ten months, commencing March l, 1897.
The decided changes in the specifica-
tons drawn up yesterday and the ones
under which bids were received the
first part of the month, are not at all
numerous. IL 70
The new Specifications provide that
when 800 complaints, which after in
vestigation by the health commissioner
shall have been1foufd to be we'll found
ed, have been made the contract shall
be annulled. The amount which the
contractor shall pay as a fine for neg
lecting to collect garbage was placed
at 90 cents for each verified complaint
Assemblyman Thompson thought the
new specifications 5vere too rigid and
would result in very high bids being re-
ceived. He questioned whether there
should not be considered the economy
to the city in n9t making the specifica-
tons too severe. DR.. Stone said his
idea was that the city had better
spend money ins keeping the city clean
and in good sanitary condition than to
nave Ine crtlzeIlS pay doctors, nurses
and undertakers. Mr.. Thompson also
wanted the specifications drawn so
that the contractor might. if he wish
ed, take the garbage to South st. Paul
instead Of being obliged to move 1t to
New Brighton. He was advised that
there was a plant at South st. Paul
which could do the same work as the
one at New Brighton. It was decided
to place in the specifications simply
that the contractor should take the
garbage to some point not less than

Capt. III. A. Castle Says the Stock
holders May Lose Something,
but Not the DepositOrs.

A meeting of the depositors Of the
North st. Paul bank was held Tuesday
evening, and a committee consisting of
A. A. Lanson, w. M. Stone and Jacob
Walsen was appointed to confer with
an attorney as to what steps would be
necessary in the interests of the de-
pos1tors. This meeting followed one
which was held Tuesday afternoon, at
winch Capt. II. A. Castle, the president
OF the suspended institution, gave the
deposltors very encouraging informa-
ton. The statements made at the meet
ing Of the depositors Tuesday evening
We're Of such nature that they were
called to the attention of Capt. Castle
yesterday. The captain said the bank
had in the past three years, during
which time he had been connected with
it as president, done remarkably well,
and had 1t not been for the recent
financial furry it would have wealth
cred the storm and In a couple Of
months would have been on its feet.
Like other institutions which had sus-
pended the bank had considerable
paper and securities which it could not
immediately realize on. There was,
he said, an abundance with which to
pay the depositors, but 1T would be
slow work. The stockholders would
probably be called upon and might
have to lose something, but the de-
positors would be paid in full
AS to the assets in detail he was not
able to say. The report Of the receiver
was now being prepared and would be
ready In the course Of a few days. The
statements made regarding certain
transactions which former officers of
the bank had with the institution. Capt.
Castle said, were without foundation
and started from some one not advised
as to the facts. The report Of the re-
ceiver soon to be made public would
prove the statements unfounded.

HIS WORK WONDERFUL.
Master frankie Richter's Work Sur
prises His Audiences.

Not until next March will Master
frankie Richter Of St Paul, pass his
eighth birthday. yet those who heard
the blind boy in his initial concert
at Conover Music hail. last evening,
saw in him the budding genius which
VIII one day make him an artist Of
International fame.
The golden haired fellow was led to
the piano with a diffident step. It
was his first appearance before so
large an audience. The sound Of the
voices and the expectant movment Of
two or three hundred people seemed at
first to surprise him, but once seated
before the instrument the child was
transformed into the artist; the blind
eyes seemed to have given the lost
functions to those small taDering fin
gers, for the hands fairly flew over
the white and black keys, never fall
tering, never tagging. Up and down
they went with confidence and pre-
cision Of a master. They were perhaps
too impetuous; that was their only
fault. Master frankie went rapidly
from one piece to another, playing each
with wonderful accuracy and feeling.
until he had run through portions Of
fourteen foana o,,,, selections: Among them
William Tell" "Rigoletti," "Caval-
leria Rusticana," Faust" and those in
lighter strains such as Bohemian
Girl" Wang" ''Mikado," etc., etc
During the rendition of numbers
the audience sat in rapt silence, every
eye fixed upon that little figure In
black velvet seated before the grand
piano. There was something Pathetic
in the picture, yet all felt that the
KIND providence had In some degree
made up for the lads sightless eyes.
by endowing him with a gift which
will some time bring the musical
world to his feet. The soul of the
artist showed plainly in the mystery.
which this wonderful progeny exercises
over the instrument. And when he
had concluded his trying and tedious
effort, Master frankie was led back to
his seat amid a thunder of applause.
His only remark to his attendant was
that the action Of the piano was SO
hard that he believed that he could
have done better on his own instru-
ment.
The Metropolitan Concert company
furnished the balance Of a very ex-
cellent programme. DIR. H. D. Smith
possesses an excellent baritone of
power and expression. His solo was
eDcored. Nine. D'Auria, soprano SOLO
list, Signor TortCrelli, harpist Edwin
Seamans and Frederick Richter furn-
ished the other excellent numbers Of the
programme. The soloists were without
exception artists. Nine. D'Auria po,-
sesses voice with the fiexibility of a
whip lash and the sweetness Of bird.

Aim OF the Invalid Aid Society Meet
ing Tonight.

The fact that Rev. D. N. Beach, the
popular and eloquent pastor Of one OF
Minneapolis leading churches, Is to be
one of the speakers at the capitol to-
night would be sufficient to attract a
large audience, even were the event a
less worthy one than meeting in the
interest Of the Invalid Aid society for
the relief of suffering consunptives
Dr.. Z. @. Duncan. Phi. D.. Ill. D., M. D.,
Of Chicago, is to deliver the principal
address Of the evening. He is a spe-
cialiSt in pulmonary diseases, president
of the National Medical College Of Chi
tagO, and is an instructive and pleas
ant speaker. He has made a special
study climatology and will devote
his time to a discussion Of climate cure.
The Rev. H. P. Nichols will also ad-
dress the meeting relative to the work
Of the American Invalid Aid society,
which has for its purpose the saving Of
consumptives who have no means to
aid themselves by moving them to the
climates and regions best adapted to
their ma1ady.
DR.. w. P. Roberts, the originator Of
the movement, and himself q. living
illustration of what the climate cure
can do, will show some magic lantern
slides pertinent to the subject, and
give ashort talk illustrative Of how In
terstate Reciprocity and Protection"
can be carried on SO as to benefit the
general public health, and at the same
time increase the general prosperity
of the commonwealth and nation.
The current number Of the Medical
and Scientific News has this to say OF

Prof. T. G. Duncan, M. D., president
Worlds Congress Of Medico-C Climatic
logy held in 1898 after long study Of
weather effects, has about reached the
conclusion that panics are q combined

The sun-spot era that occurs every
eleven years QI.ID produces or is at
tended with marked magnetic disturb
ances, as aurCral displays, storms, etc.
These are not always uniform. The
epidemic of epizootic In ~ and in
grippe in 80 seemed to accompany
these eras Of disturbances, and both
preceded the severe commercial pan
les. Fear and distrust create pantcs.
If this idea is correct, then we can
lock for slight financial furry in
1904 and a severe panic in 1915 The
sun-spot maximum years in the past
were 1859-60 1S71-72, 1928 and 1893-94.
Time will tell whether his idea has a
sound scientific basis If it has, then
a forecast may be made of interest to
many people. The hot wave last win
ter in Australia and the one here last
August, may follow a law that will
help weather forecast. Science can
doubtless help our prophetic vision

three miles from the city, where 1t
should be disposed of by rendering
process.
The question raised as to how long
the garbage should be allowed to re-
main on cars before being shipped out
Of the city brought out a statement
from DR.. Stone which caused much
nlerriment. Some one Of the commit
tee wanted to know how many car
loads Of garbage were taken away by
the contractors in the last year. There
were guesses all the way from 1000
to 5000 cars. DR.. Stone said he had
been Informed by the railway officials
that during the year 1896 only 40 car
loads Of garbage had been hauled TO
New Brighton, at which point the rem
dering works are located. 1t was de-
cided that certified checks In the sum
Of $1,000 should accompany each bid, in
stead Of bonds, the idea being that by
this method a number of bidders who
had no idea of doing the work would
not take the trouble to bid. The spec
ifications will be presented to the coun-
Gil at the regular meeting to be- held
next week for approval.

BUYS SOME NEW HOSE.
Board of Fire Commissioners Award
a Contract,

The board Of fire commissioners
opened bids last night for a hose wagon
and 2,000 feet Of hose. Five bids were
received, the lowest on both wagon
and hose being that of the Crane &
Ordway company, which offered to
furnish them for $2,169. The board
awarded the contract to this firm.
The Front street fire station which
IS to be equipped with a hose wagon
and hose in place of the chemical now
stationed there, and the present force,
consisting of three colored men, will
be increased today when Chief Jack
son will appoint an additional man.
The board decided to insure the boil
ers Of all the fire engines against dam
age by steam. Heretofore the fire de-
partment has been paying the state
boiler inspector a fee of SO per boiler
for his annual inspection of the engine
boilers. The new move does away with
the state inspection, and each boiler is
insured in the sum of 500 upon the
payment of the same fee heretofore
paid the state boiler inspector, name
ly, So a year for each boiler.
The January pay roll amounting to
S13;352.07 was approved.

the other to Nicholas Pothen, created an ex-
house yesterday afternoon. The horses were
tied facing each other, Flannigan's horse
with a weight which enabled him to start
the trouble by annoying Pothen's horse, about
which he cirCled and cavorted until both
horses broke into a run. They became tan
gled up and a broken shaft on Pothen's
sleigh pierced his horses side, injuring the
animal so badly that he will probably die
Flannigan's horse ran down Fourth street to
Robert street, where the overturned sleigh
broke a large plate glass window in the West
ern Union office, and continued its course on
Robert street until stopped by officer Kaiser
near Fifth street. The sleigh was demolished.

Herman ROsenblatt, the man arrest
ed by State Game Warden Fullerton
Wednesday with nineteen saddles of
venis0n and f1fty-six cartridges in his
possession, was before Judge Orr yes
terday on the charge of violating the
state game laws. Rosenblatt lives at
Sandy Lake, Mimi, a distance of 100
miles. He drove to ST. Paul from that
point in the excessive cold weather
OF the past week, occupying five days
Gil the trip. The game warden a.
Sendy Lake had been keeping watch
on Rose nblatt, and, when he started,
notified Mr.. Fullerton of his route
and destination, with the result that
he was arrested with the load of game
shortly after he reached st. Paul.
Judge Orr fined Rosenblatt $50, which
was paid. In addition to the fine, the
lead of game, valued at about $165,
was conflscated.

LAWS POUND OF FLESH
Taken In the Case of O Man Who
Stole Hay for Starving Stock.

Vincent Markell, when arraigned in
tho police court yesterday on the
charge Of stealing 81 worth Of hay
from Como park, told a pathetic story
Of poverty and suffering which had
impelled him to theft. but which could
not save him from the consequences
Of his act. The law demanded its
pound of flesh, and Markell was SEN
fenced to the work house for thirty
days. Markell told the court he had
never been arrested before, but, when
he saw a COW and horse, which he
owned, slowly starving and freezing
to death, having no money or friends
to whom he could apply for aid, he
had taken the hay for the distressed
animals. He was the partial support
of his mother and sister, Markell stat
ed, and all of his small earnings had
been expended in this direction, which
left him nothing with which to provide
food for his stock. Judge Orr imposed
a fine of SIS or thirty days in the work
house. He had to go to Como.
