just the Same as Men.

Judge Heine of the municipal court
of st. Paul, maintains that there is no
law prohibiting women from frequent
ing saloons, and consequently has dis
charged without a hearing prisoners
taken before him on that complaint.
The police court justice takes the stand
that both the district and municipal
court have often held that women have
the same right in saloons as men, and
advises the police department that it
is useless to continue arresting women
on that charge.

Surveying Has Begun.

The work of surveying the Red Lake
river and both arms of Red lake. pur-
suant to the resolution of congress Sc
cured by Congressman Eddy at the last
session, has begun. A party of Is sur

ton Fowble, a United States assistant
engineer, took the field for that pur-
pose last week. The work is being
done with a view of ascertaining the
cost of dam and locks to be built at

same time raise the stage of water in

stage can be maint tanned in the Red
Lake river during the entire summer
season

Will Test the Law.

Lumbermen are about to test the
constitutionality of the Mccarthy log
lien law passed by the last legislature.
The law was designed to do away with
the time check system, and enforces
payment of wages to loggers every two
weeks. Lumbermen do not like it be
cause. on account of the lumber jacks
well known addiction to whisky, they
cannot count upon his services as long
as he has money in his pocket. As
labor is scarce this year and there is
an increased amount of pine to cut, the
situation is really serious.

but rainy. The air was heavy and mug
gy, and there was a feeling that there
might be a downpour any minute, but
happily that calamity did not materialize,
and the worst the crowd suffered was
muddy feet
As early as o'clock in the morning lit
tie groups Of people, twos and threes,
lives and skies, began to appear on the
streets, slowly trudging down town. The
numbers increased as the gray morning
hours advanced, until by o'clock the
streets were as lively and thronged as
they are at o'clock on ordinary days.
All had the one meeting place, the Union
depot.
As soon as the train stopped there was
q mad rush for the platforms of the cars,
and then there was no more guard. The
soldiers crowded out and into the arms of
their friends. After year and half the
bows were home Most affecting were the
greetings.
Men and women rushed into each 9TH
er's arms, and their lips touched in long
and affectionate kisses. Women sobbed
on the breasts of the men they had wait
ed so long to see, and tears in plenty
eoursed down the cheeks of the returned
warriors. Such home coming was worth
a Journey half around the world.
In 10 or 20 minutes the second section of
the Northern Pacific train appeared, only
to have the same scenes repeated. Then,
about 20 minutes after o'clock, the Great
Northern train pulled in with the third
part of the regiment, and the boys were
all at home.
And the breakfast. The women of ST
Paul certainly did themselves proud, and
every man of the regiment must have felt
glad that he returned with the regiment
as guests of the state. There was cof-
fee whole boilers and many boilers of it.
There were sandwiches, there were
doughnuts, bread and butter and more
coffee.
The boys appreciated the speeches. but
they appreciated the breakfast, too. and
at this point a sergeant discovered that
the women had not been thanked.
What's the matter with the women of
St. Paul?'' he shouted as he jumped on
a chair In an instant every member of
his company was on his feet and there
was wild yell of They're all right" fol-
lowed by the company yell.
The special train bearing the president
and his party arrived in Minneapolis over
the Milwaukee road at lilo o'clock this
morning one hour and 40 minutes behind
schedule time. Owing to this delay the
local committee was compelled to cut
short the time spent by President Nc
Kinley at the residence of Thomas Low
~. and after a stop of half an hour to
secure a little rest carriages were taken
to Park avenue and Twenty sixth street.
where they Joined the parade.
At the Milwaukee Union depot the
crowd of people was so immense that it
was found inadvisable to carry out the
original program and have the party
make its egress through the main en-
trance. Fifteen minutes or more were
spent by the police in an endeavor to
clear the entrance, and finally the train
was backed down to Sixth avenue south
where carriages were waiting to take the
distinguished guests.
He was in Minneapolis about the time
the soldiers left St. Paul. and soldiers and
president met at Twenty-ninth street and

Hurt in a Panic.

City Recorder Paul Kemp of Winona
had his left arm broken in a panic on
Northwestern passenger train near
Rochester. 1t seems that young lady
was being taken from near Mankato
to the insane asylum at Rochester. and
while left alone a few minutes in a
closet, jumped out of a window. The
train was making 40 miles an hour.
When she was discovered missing the
brakeman ran into the smoking car
and pulled the bell rope violently
This caused a panic among the passen-
gers, who thought some accident was
impending, and rushed out on the plat
form. Mr.. Kemp was among the num-
ber.. He was pushed off and about a
dozen others jumped, but he was the
only one hurt. The train was run
back three miles, and the missing lady
found sitting by a bridge, unhurt.

days ago the indisposition of Judge
Rabb was chronicled, and then it was

morning he did not appear, and the
court set about, with the aid of the
eitizens' attorneys, to try to locate an
other judge to act in the matter. How
ever. no one was decided upon, though
some were written to on the subject.
