GERMAN IN CITY LIBRARY
GERMAN CENTRAL SOCIETY WILL
COOPERATE IN ITS INTRO
DUCTION
Committees Are Appointed to Assist
the Board In the Selection and
Securing of Standard German Lit
erature.

The German Central Society of Mime
sofa, that branch of the organization in
this city, at meeting held al Mozart hall
yesterday afternoon, accepted a PROPOSE
ton from the library board for the es-
tablishment of a department Of German
literature in the new library, and plans
will be formulated looking toward secur-
ing first-class library for the benefit
of those who prefer to conduct their
studies or reading through the German
language. This is considered an important
step by the Germans of the city, who
have long wished for an opportunity to
avail themselves of their native Etera-
ture under the advantages of a public
library plan. There are German depart
ments in other libraries in large cities,
and the establishment of such depart
ment in st. Paul's new library is regard
ed as an enlargement Of the educational
work that it is conceded the public IL
brary accomplishes. President Boenisch
was empowered to appoint several COM
mtttees that Will assist in selecting and,
in measure, will secure the literature
for the new department. German families
will be requested to donate standard Ger
man books, and in this way the commit
tees hope to soon gather the nucleus of a
comprehensive library in the language Of
the Fatherland
Among other matter Of Importance con-
sidered at the meeting was proposition
to have an address by some prominent
German of the state at every meeting Of
the society. The meetings take place the
third Sunday of each month, and arrange
ments were made to have an address
upon current events by qualified speakers
every month. The speakers will be Sc
lected by a committee. Most of them will
be allowed to select their own subjects,
but upon matters which the society de-
sires special enlightenment prominent
speakers will be asked to discourse. In
this way, it is believed, the society will
be drawn close together, and the So
liability of the organization, as we'll as
other advantages, will be promoted.

AS SOME PEOPLE HUNT.

Postmaster and former Mayor Robert
A. Smith has returned from hunting
trip to Coon lake in AnOka county, which
consumed from Oct. 80 to Nov. 90 Dur
ing that time Mr.. Smith records a score
of twenty slaughtered ducks. He was &C.
companied by Robert Copley, the son of
the cashier of the pcstoffice. AS Mr..
Scpley ST.. puts it, 1.-The Copley family had
a new cook"
The only trouble during the whole 3lunt,
according to Mr.. Smith, was occasioned
to the inability Of young Mr.. Copley to
cook. HE was no good at it," says Mr..
Smith.
Consequently the postmaster and former
mayor was compelled TO toy with the fry
ing pan and other things. and as net re,
suit he shows today a badly burned hand,
the result of an ill-advised attempt to
fry potatoes. Says Mr.. Smith:
II wiped the dishes and he washed
them. However. my work discounted his
because 1 did the cooking ard it would
have worsted Delmonico."
While the party was up in the woods
there was a wedding in Swedish house
hold a couple of miles from the camp.
Mr. Smith and Young Mr.. Ccpley sent
around bottle of wine and dozen bot
ties of beer from their supplies, and then
dressed up in their best clothes and wait
ed for an invitation The festivity was
pulled eff, and neither was given chance
to attend.
When the postmaster end his compan-
ion returned there was only one thing
that they had to be glad about. That
was the fact that William G.. Smith
had sneaked UP in the meanwhile and
killed two deer.
The party, on returning, were met by
Andy Call. the big policeman at the
union depot, who had been hunting him
self. Said Mr.. Call:
II went up to the northern part of the
state to hunt 7 stayed two days, and
somebody either killed or missed five
hunters. 1 concluded I was too big and
offered too good a mark for the hunters.
So came back. I have received between
200 and 500 letters since reminding me Of
pro misses L had made. It is a sad condi-
ton of affairs, but not to be helped 1 in
tend to make good the promises next
year"

GOVERNMENT ENGINEERS Mako
OLD MISSISSIPPI ASSIST IN HIS
OWN REMUNERATION
WILLOWS CATCH THE SAND

River and Tributaries, COncen-
trating the Current, and the
Channel Is Being Narrowed and
DeeDened at the Same Time by
the Dredge Boat.
James D. Du Shane, of the United
States engineering corps, returned yes
terday from a trip down the Mississippi
river, where he has been experimenting
the making of improvements in the dis
trict under his charge, from st. Paul to
Winona, distance of 12G miles. Maj.
Du Shane declares, that. the navigation
conditions on the Mississippi are better
than ever before.
"Our principal work at present, he said
yesterday, sis constructing dams and
other shore protective works below Lake
Pepin, at West Newton, Chimney Rock
and other points above Winona. The
work is being carried on under the con-
tinuous appropriation system, and there
are about 100 men employed by the con-
tractors, besides the day labor work,
which employs a great many more. The
season will close Dec. 10, when we are
compelled to get out of the river. During
the year we have expended on improve
ments between St. Paul and Winona
about $4,000
''In 1878. when the present work Of i'm
provements was begun there were many
bad places all along the river, and espe-
cially further down. Since then the policy
of the government has been to repair the
bad places and then afterwards fill in
between the points first tackled.
I'm addition to- Strengthening the en-
bankments, We. are following a policy Of
narrowing the. channel, which of neces-
sity, increases the depth of water. AS
the water sweeps through the narrow
channels it throws the sand and waste
to the sides, where the willows soon knit
the whole together, adding to the per-
manency Of the work. In this way we
make the river do large share Of the
work Of It's own regeneration. The navi-
cation conditions on the Mississippi were
never more favorable than at present"

Quoted by Rev. w. C. Pope.
Looking from a window in the county
jail Fred f. Guion, who murdered James
Miller In Justice of the Peace Smiths
office, SO South Robert street, last Tues
day, saw his victims funeral pass
down Fifth street yesterday afternoon on
the way to his last resting place at Oak
land cemetery. Escorting the hearse
were fifty members of Acker post, G. A.
r., the murdered mans comrades, and
they glanced meaningly at the jail as the
cortege passed, recalling with bitterness
M:ller's sad end at Guion's hands. Grion
watched the funeral procession pass with
stolid countenance, turning from the win
dow carelessly without comment as the
hearse disappeared. What his thoughts
We're only he himself knows.
The funeral took place from the chapel
of the Nagel Undertaking company, S22
Wabasha street, at o'clock. Long be-
fore this hour the chapel was crowded,
While several hundred people loitered
about the doors. Some were MilIer's
friends and comrades, others attracted by
morbid curiosity. The funeral was under
the direction of Acker post, of which Mil
Ter was a member Members Of the La
dies Auxiliary Society of the Sons of
Veterans provided several appropriate
floral designs. and a quartette of the
women sang during the service. The
service was performed by Rev. w c.
Pope, pastor of the Church of the Good
Shepherd. After the simple, but impress
i've ceremony, the body was viewed by
procession formed outside. AS the process
sion moved up Wabasha street the crowd
that had gathered watched the hearse-
curiously, and when the procession turned
down Fifth street, the spectators, with
one accord, seemed to realize the Signifi-
canoe of the move. Everybody hurried
after the procession and crowded along
opposite to the jail, seemingly wondering
which of the many faces peering from he
tween the iron bars was that of the muir
derer. At Jackson street the G. A R.
members took street cars to Oakland
cemetery, while the haarse proceeded, ac-
companied by several carriages When
the cemetery was reached another crowd
was found waiting and gathered closely
about the grave while Rev. w C. Pope
completed the final burial service.
AS the casket was lowered into the
grave detachment of the Sons of Voter
ans fired a volley and taps sounded over
the old soldier resting in eternal sleep.

the Silent Messenger-Leaves One
Son. a
Mrs. Ann E. Cobb, living at 165 McBoal
street, died suddenly at L o'clock yes
terday morning from heart failure AL
though having reached an advanced ago
Mrs. Cobb appearantly enjoyed good
health, and her sudden death was unex-
pected. She had been we'll throughout
Saturday and was about her household
duties as usual She retired early and
rested easily until about midnight, when
she awoke and complained of difficulty
in breathing. DR.. Miller was summoned,
but before he arrived Mrs Cobb had
passed away.
Deceased was the mother of George A.
Cobb, formerly of the grocery firm of
Reynolds & Cobb, but at present en-
ployed in the weighing department of the
state grain inspection department. Mrs.
Cobb was seVenty-eight years Of age and
had lived in st. Paul since 1856. Her hus-
band died twenty years ago. She was
the mother of six children, all of whom.
however, except George A. Cobb, have
died. From her long residence in the
city Mrs. Cobb was known to a large
circle of friends, to whom the news of
her death brings sadness and regret as
she was esteemed as a woman of kindly
nature and generous, Christian charac-
ter.
Coroner Nelson was called into the case
and issued a death certificate, assigning
heart failure as the cause of death.

ARGUMENTS HEARD
In the Msndamus Proceedings Against
Auditor Hopkins.

In the Mandamus Proceedings Against
Auditor Hopkins.
In the district court today Judge
Burford heard arguments on the two
peremptory writs of mandanus served
on Auditor Hopkins compelling him
TO show cause why the warrants of
Supt. II. G, Beamer of the deaf and
dumb school have not been honored
and payments made to memb bers of
the codifying committee and the GUS
todian Of the territorial historical So
ciety. Writs of mandamus were issued
against the auditor upon application
OF Superintendent Beamer and W. Il.
Little. The decision in Beamers case
with determine the question of validity
of the Clarke warrant act, while LiL-
tie has two cases for settlement. The
first is in regard to the payment of the
committee appointed to codify the
bills passed by the legislative assem-
bly,, in which about S7O0 is involved.
Little was one OF the codifers. There
is some question as to the legality of
the com mittee and IL is said that it
was on the advice of Governor Barnes
that Auditor Hopkins refused payment.
Little's other claim is for $50 alleged
to be due for services as custodian OF
the Oklahoma historical sec ETY..
Attorney General Cunningham ap-
peared for the auditor, and Dale &
Bierer represented Beamer and Little.
Judge Burford will render a decision
later.
