INSPECTED THE BRIDGE.

Isoara Of Public Works Doesn't APP
prove Of Suggested Changes.
The members Of the board Of public
works CITY Engineer Rundlett and
Aid Bell respected the Wabasha street
bridge. and particularly the southern
end Of the structure, yesterday after
noon The occasion for the Inspection
was a couple of resolutions introduced
by Assemblyman Dix and passed by
the council One directed the street
railway company to remove at once
the planks which had been used in
paving that portion of the bridge be
tween the tracks. The other directed
the board of public works to report
to the council as to the necessity for
repaving the bridge with wooden
blocks, and the cost of the same. After
an inspection of the bridge the board
decided that it would be unWise at
this time to repaVe the south end of
the bridge in view of the proposed
widening of the structure within the
next wear or so. AS to compelling
the street railway company to tear out
the plankS put in, the board and city
engineer held that this would result
in the narrow part of the bridge haV-
ing to be entirely repl9nked, which
would be an Unnecessary expense. Aid.
Bell was also opposed to any money
being spent on the repairs to the bridge
for the reason that he eXpectes the
council will, in making up the tax
estimate for 1898, include in it $4,000
for widening the southern end of the
bridge. Several members of the coun-
Gil, however, are of the Cx-I2ion that
it would be much wiser to take the
interest ON the amount suggested Hld
repave and allow the bridge to go
without being widened for a year or
two longer. The board of public
works will report adversely on the
order to repave the bridge.

visions of the measure, intimated that
1t. the council passed it as drawn, it
would meet with favorable considera-
uon by the officials of the company.
Mr.. Goodrich was inclined to think
that the date. June /, 1885, was too
short time for the work on the Selby
avenue line to be completed and the
line to be in operation.
Some of the city officials are skepti-
cal about the ordinance in it's present
shape being accepted by the railway
company and the city should divide
the expense of cutting the viaduct on
Selby avenue hill. The proposed ordi-
nance saddles all this expense on the
street railway company and also
makes them responsible for any and
all damages for which the city may
become liable by reason of the change
1t is for this reason that some of the
officials connected with the city gov
eminent feel dubious about the ordi-
nance being accepted by the company
one gentleman who has given street
railway matters and more particular
ly the attitude of the company toward
St Paul. considerable attention, stated
last evening that to his mind the
scheme was simply one for delay on
the part of the company. Vice Presi-
dent Goodrich, he said, would say the
thing was all right and after the coun-
Gil had passed the ordinance certain
property owners on Selby avenue
between Summit and Nina avenues,
would. as soon as the work COM
menced, start suits against the COM
pany for damages sustained by reason
OF the Viaduct. The suits would, for
the time, at least, stop the work and
the matter would drag along in the
courts. All this time the company
would be in a position to say to the
people of st. aPul that they intended
to go ahead with the improvement,
but of course under the circumstances
could not proceed. The gentleman
said he was not advertising himself
as a mind reader, but from experience
he felt that this would be the outcome
Of the matter even should the ordi-
nance pass and be accepted by the
company.
The ordinance will be passed by the
aldermen this afternoon and will be
turned over to the assembly for action
at its meeting this evening. 1t was
stated last night that there was some
doubt as to its being concurred in by
the assembly as some Of the members
of that body are not in favor of the
Thompson depot loop ordinance.

TALKED SINGLE TAX.
First Warders Have Other Things
Besides School to Discuss.

Besides School to Discuss.
A meeting of the First Ward Citizens
league was held at Sjoberg hall, Wells
and Payne, last evening. the atten-
dance numbering in the vicinity Of $50
residents of that section. A. G. John
son occupied the chair, and called upon
F.. E. Edmund, from the committee APP
pointed, to wait upon the mayor rela-
tive to school matters in the First
ward. Mr. Edmund represented a COM
mittee composed of Emanuel Johnson,
Edward Peterson, Alex Lindahl and
himself. The report was not a very
enthusiastic one, and stated that they
had not met with the best of success.
The committee had waited upon Mayor
Doran, and that official had informed
them that he could do nothing in re-
gard to the providing of suitable school
accommodations for the First ward at
the present time.
J. o. Cederburg stated that he hoped
the committee would not let their
laborS come to a conclusion without
having some understanding in regard
to the matter, and it was resolved to
continue the committee indefinitely.
Over fifty applications for member
ship were received and approved, and
the club now numbers nearly 300 resi-
dents of the First ward. Action will be
taken at once to have all the members
take out their citizenship papers at
once, and the club is liable to become
an important factor in First ward pol
itics.
A discussion on the question of single
tax problems was entered into by F. E.
Edmund and Edward Peterson, the
former taking the single tax side of the
issue, and Mr.. Peterson the opposition.
This argument was listened to with
interest.

GLOBE VOTING CONTEST.
Ten Thousand Votes Have Been
Cast Already.

The voting contest started by the
G o b e Sunday morning, out Of which
four clerks in some St. Paul business
house, or some four business houses,
are to have about the incest kind of a
trip that it is possible to arrange has
shown signs of popularity from the
start. Monday the votes began to
come in and each day since that time,
coupons have been brought into the
G 0 b office by mail, messenger boys
and others, until up to yesterday after
noon, there had been about 10000 votes
cast
In addition to the list of names print
ed in the G o b yesterday there are
from fifty to seVenty-five new candi-
dates for the prizes, either of their own
volition or through their friends. All
the large retail stores in the city and
many smaller ones are now represented
in the list of people for whom ballots
have been sent in. The wholesale
houses are also generally represented
and several names of clerks in the gem
eral offices of the different railways
appear among the contestants.
The promised trip is so desirable that
the competition is going to be keen,
and it is doubtful if there has ever been
a newspaper voting contest which
started off with so keen a determina-
ton on the part of the friends of the
contestants W SucCeeu DIS lulS one.
The work of sorting the coupons has
been begun, and the G l o will later
announce the number of votes cast for
each candidate.
There is one point about the contest
that should not be lost sight of and
that is the value of the coupons. They
are not always going to be as good as
they are these days. Every coupon
now counts for five votes, while later
they will only be worth four votes and
so on down until at the beginning of
the end a coupon will only count one
vote. For this reason everybody who
wants to help himself or his friend
should do it now when the coupons are
five times as valuable as they will be
later. make hay while the sun
shines is the proper way to do in this
contest. Any contestant who gets a
good lead now will find it easier to hold
it than he would if he got in the lead
later on. "Vote early and often" if you
would succeed.

night the members of company D were
engaged in expressing their thanks for
and appreciation of the deluge of best
wishes showered upon them. The lit
tie fat captain" as the Washington

mander of company d, was the re-
cipient Of host of these best wishes,
coupled with the prediction that his
company would capture the 5000 du-
cats The captain conceded with the
prophets, as he shook their hands and
assured them that the boys were not
going way down to Texas this hot
weather for fun.
At last the time to part came, and as
the rear car Of the Great Western
train moved out of the depot, with two
compny D faces in every window and
all the rest beaming from the rear
platform big enthusiastic cheer went
up from the crowd. The boys answer
ed it with a will, waved their white
helmets and passed out of sight.

RAN DOWN A BOY.
Driver Arrested Though He Says He
Wasn't to Blame.

Leo Williams, a boy thirteen years
Old, living with his parents at 265 East
Sixth street, was run down by a deliv-
cry wagon at Sixth and Sibley streets
shortly after 4 o'clock yesterday after
noon and seriously injured. The lad
was carried to the Office of Dr. e. H
Whitcomb, where a bad scalp wound
several inches long, on the right side
of the head was sewed up. A big black
and blue spot on the boys abdomen
showed where the horse had stepped
upon him, and it is feared internal in
juries may have been sustained
Anthony Kubiac, a grocer at Oil Jes-
samine street, was driving the horse
He claimed he was going slowly when
the boy lodged in front Of his horse
Officer O'Malley, however, arrested the
grocer on the charge Of reckless driv-
ing, and the case will be investigated
in the municipal court today. Mr.
Kubiak was released upon his own
recogniZance.

Capt. Bean Says They're Not Going
to San Antonio This Hot Wealth
err for Nothing.

Company D started for San Antonio,
Tex, at $40 last evening, amid a way
ing of caps and handkerchiefs, the
cheers of their friends and the best
wishes Of the entire community. Sew
eral hundred people went down to the
union depot to see the boys off. The
company marched from the armOry
down Sixth street to Robert, along
Robert to Third and thence down Third
and Sibley to the depot, escorted by
the Postoffice band. The men wore
spotless white duck trousers and regu-
lation coats and presented a fine ap-
pearance on their way to the depot,
under command of Capt. Bean.
Arriving at the depot, they found a
crowd Of friends awaiting them. The
latter were permitted to pass through
the gates and see the boys safely
aboard the Chicago Great Western
train.
Forty-eight men comprised the entire
party, which included DR.. T. c. Clark,
of Saltwater of the regimental medical
staff. Exactly forty men will partici-
pate in the competitive drill, which
will take place next Wednesday. The
company is due to reach San Antonio

elusive use-the sleeper Anoka and a
combination baggage and smoking car.
The company will arrive in Kansas
City at $3.50 p. m. today, where they
will remain over until p. m. The
wait will not be a tedious one, how
ever, as the boys will be the guests of
the Hale zouaves, of that city, who
will take them for a tally-ho ride and
banquet them in the evening.

ARLINGTON HOTEL CLOSES.
Col. d. I. Jones Set Too Lively a
Dining Room Pace

Col. D. I. Jones, who for a year past has
been conducting the Arlington hotel at the
Seven corners withdrew from active charge
OF the hotel Yesterday. He also withdrew
the sheets, pillow cases. towels and other
necessary articles used in furnishing rooms
in hotels and the eight or nine guests who
insisted on remaining at the hosiery last
evening were naturally somewhat discom-
NODDED. The help employed at the hotel
were also much put out at the state of
affairs, owing to the fact that g. number of
them had not been settled with. The last
meal served at the hotel under the manage
ment of Col. Jones was breakfast yesterday
morning, and last evening the bar room was
shut up and the hotel presented q very
deserted appearance.
Mr.. Percival stated that DIR. D. c. Jones
had for a time been interested In the hotel
with Col. Jones' but he understood that the
doctor had transferred his interest some time
ago. Mr.. Percival intimated that the hotel
would be reopened within a few days and
that he would assume the management. The
hotel was formerly the old Winslow house
and the owner of the property is now in
Germany. The place was leased by Col.
Jones and the rent has been paid up to
July 1.

WILL BE TO A FINISH.
Dispute Over the Capture of f. III.
SpinlS's Dog.

The hearing in the writ of replevin
issued against Dogcatcher Kelly and
Chief of Police Goss by Justice Mills
morning. Assistant County Attorney
Hail. who appeared for the dogcatcher
and the chief Of police, however, asked
for further time to prepare his case
and a continuance was granted for
one week. The writ was issued on
petition of F.. H. Sphinx, of 933 West
Seventh street, whose pet canine the
dogcatcher gobbled while it was out
with it's owner. Mr.. Sphinx protested
and told the dogcatcher that he paid
a personal tax on the animal and
was not obliged to pay an additional
81 license. The dog was thrown in
the wagon and the writ of replevin
secured from the justice After con-
siderable fuss the animal was turned
over to Constable Boyd and returned
to its owner. Stan Donnelly, who has
been retained by Mr.. Sphinx, says that
the case will be fought to a finish
and, if necessary, the matter taken to
the supreme court. The ordinance under
which the dogcatchers are at work, Mr..
the owner Of a dog allows the ami
NAL to run at large the police can ar
rest and fine the owner, but have no
right to take away or kill the animal
Another point made by Mr.. Donnelly
is that his client pays personal
property tax on his dog and that the
city has no legal right to make him
pay a second tax on the animal.
