COURT HOUSE CHANGES.
Speculation as to the Attaches of the
 Sheriff's Office.

There will be some changes at the court house today. Sherif-elect Mur- ray will enter into his office. There has been considerable speculation re- garding his under sheriff, deputies and jailors. MT Murray no doubt knows who they will be, but nobody else does. If all the gentlemen whose names have been mentioned in connection with the office should be appointed another court house annex would have to be built. The only other office which entirely changes hands is the county treasury. The treasurer-elec MT. M. ". Mes singer, has already designated John G. Spangler as his deputy
 There will be che new face in the board of supervisors. J. A. Marshall, but that one new face changes the com pIexion of the board from democratic to republican, entailing the election of a republican clerk. Who he will be is still a matter of doubt, but it is reason ably certain that he will be either Captain John Gray or T. F. Grindell. No changes will occur in the record CTS office and nc very apparent ones in the office of the probate judge. The segregation Of the office of county school superintendent from this office also dates from today. This office will be established in the room heretofore occupied by the county surveyor. The district attorney will now have home in the court house.

There is no sweating or roasting to
death by being shut in room with a
red hot stove for a companion. You
simply prepare your clothes, take them
into the coolest room in the house, or
out under a shade tree, then to per-
form your work is pleasure. You
have no running q back and forth
between a cold room and a hot
one, no changing of irons, no
handling of wood or coal. Twice as
much work can be done with this
from as with any other iron made, in
the same length of time. .-se ,5@
You never have scorched clothes; nor
is your iron ever so cold as to gum or
stick to the starch, because you always
have an even heat. The old style irons
are dirty when compared with our self
heating irons. When you take an. iron
off from a black stove more or:less dirt
sticks to it. This iron Is It's own stove
and never makes the least dirt. It can
be used in an ordinary household for
a year for less than so cents. Compare
this with the cost of running any kind
of a stove and you will see that no
one can afford to do without it.

In New York City" at the Grand,

St.. Paul people furnished the refresh
ments, Mr.. Oliver White furnished
music and a most enjoyable time was
had all around.
"The City of New York." the great
scenic drama which met with such a
rousing reception in New York, Bos-
ton and other eastern cities, will be
seen here following the engagement of
"The Great Northwest" The piece is
said to be full of vim, life, pathos and
comedy and there is snap to it from
start to finish. It will be put on here
with beautiful scenic effects, settings
and other stage paraphernalia espe-
cially created for this production. A
thoroughly competent company is
promised to present the piece here.
After a surfeit OF farces, comedies,
ETC., it seems as if melodrama is to
have a turn and to prove 1t, look at
the success of melodramas at New
York, Chicago and other eastern the
aters, ''The Great Rugby" "Phroso,"
'The Christian" "Zaza,' for they are
all nothing more or less than melo-
drama beautifully treated. London
Life" which is scheduled for early
appearance in this city, is a new
melodrama said to be equally as good
as any of these successes and it is
said by competent critics that it is
the strongest melodrama of the day.
An unusually strong cast will present
the piece here"

The BARRIERS have expressed their
determination to carry the matter to

brought. :.~3 ~ Il =.
But we would like to know what the

OF the various dramatic critics in
the country, there are none who stand
higher than DR.. Howe of the Wash

never gushes over anything, whether
it is social function at the White

DR.. Howe's criticism of the great
scenic drama, THE City of New

expected as a guarantee Of the char
acter of this play.

Rev. Hart is good speaker and a
good church maker. All are invited.
Mr.. w. M. Jenkins, the we'll known
hotel man Of Minneapolis, has leased
the nat No. 3 Second street north and
has remode1ed and refurnished 1t with

A positive novelty is promised in the
production of The Great Northwest"
which will be seen here at an early
date. Unlike many other western
plays, "The Great Northwest is a
thoroughly natural, realistic: drama
with strong heart interest The story
is an absorbing one, and the comedy
scenes keep the audience in roar of
laughter. ALI the scenes represent
real life in the Red River valley Of the
North, picturesque locality which
has never before been represented on
the stage. A carload of scenery is
carried
"A Colonial Girl" which will be
given here for the first time att the
Metropolitan Sunday evening, is one
of the few plays which, taking the
Revolutionary theme as background
for the story, have made an undoubt-
ed success The play is laid in the
troublesome times of '76, but the au-
thOrs have not allowed themselves to
be held bound DOWN to- a historical
basis. The main parts of the story
are romance and love, with only
enough of historical similitude to give
body and serious interest to the plot.
That is well, for audiences prefer
amusement to Instruction., and the
surest way to a1nuse them and to- hold
their attention is to appeal to the emo
tfons rather than to the intellect. Mr..
Howard Gould, who plays the hero
Godfrey Remsen, is; delightful &C

American in this country is most de-
plorable. He is denied the right to
eat, to- drink, to sleep, to get shaved,
to battle, to marry, to live, to die, to
be buried, to be educated, to travel, to
stay at home, in short, but for the
fact that it is involuntary, he would
be denied the right to breathe. Yet,
this is the only country that declares
itself the haven of rest for the down
