CHARGE 1T TO INVER GROVE.

At the meeting of the joint city hall and
court house commission yesterday after
noon, the contract for heating, lighting
and furnishing elevator power for the
court house and city han We're awarded
to the st. Paul Gas Light company at a
total of $4,000 per year. There has been
some discussion as to the advisabiity
of renovating the old plant in the jail.
the claim being made that the county and
city could, at no great outlay, do their
own heating and lighting for less money.
After investigating this proposed plan,
however, the members OF the commission
did not think it advisable, and the con-
tract was awarded to the gas company,
which was the only bidder. The bid was
for one, two and three years. The fol-
lowing were the figures for three-year
contract: Lighting, S., 900 per year; heat
ing, 5000 per year. power Cor running
three elevators, $1,000. If awarded scOn-
tract for all three the company offered
to do it for $4,000 a year. In case the
power for the elevators is changed to
electricity, the company will give re-
duction of $1,000 a year.
Commissioner QuehI attempted to
amend the motion for three-year con-
tract, but as his motion did not receive
any seconder, he withdrew it.
A representative of the Robertson Ideal
Engine company was present and explain
ed to the commission that in his judgment
it could do its own lighting fer S11, 900 a
year.
There is no provision in the new con-
tract in regard to lighting and heating
the jail, but President Lathrop, of the gas
company, made verbal contract with 1he
commission that the company would fur
nish heat and light for $25 a month,
which is the same as the present con-
tract. The bid was considerably higher
than the expiring contract with the COM
pany, but the increase in the price Of coal
was given as the reason for this.
Custodian Battley reported that upon
investigation of court room No. 1, ne had
discovered ventilating hampers, which
had never been opened since The building
was instructed. The court room has
not had any ventilation whateve and
the matter was brought up at the last
meeting of the commission and a special
committee appointed to look into the
matter. The prompt discovery made by
Custodian Battley will save the commits
sion nearly $500, as it would have cost
that much to have the proper Nentilators
put in.
Mayor Smith presided, and all the mem
bers of the commission We're present.

was bad feeling between them. That is
admitted.
Early in the fight Day got hold Of
the knife and was just about to strike
with it when Fred George fnterfered.
George saw Hamilton's danger, and
rushed between the two men, throwing
Days arm back against his breast. Day
held the knife tightly clenched in his
hand, and as the arm was forced back
it penetrated beneath his collar bone and
killed him.
George is a powerful man. over 6 feet

his blow sent Day reeling out of the
crowd and threw him to the floor twenty
feet away. Hamilton remained upright.
George was friend of Day and would
not have handled him so roughly had it
not been necessary. Prompt action was
required in order to save Hamilton's
life, and Mr.. George acted promptly.
He had, of course, no idea Of inflict-

Lestures Next Week

Lestures Next Week.
Mrs. Fowler, who is to give series Of
tive free lectures at the Peoples church
beginning Dec H. is a widow of the
well known phrenologtst, Prof o. s.
Fowler, of New York.
''The reason why the truth is so little
known at the present time says Mrs.
Fowler, is because Gods laws are no
longer obeyed. If I should say to you
today that the time is coming when
we shall do greater works than Christ
did, you would call me mad and in the
Gospel we have Christ's word for it. But
there are conditions which will enable
us to do these things and that is by living
according to Gods laws.
The spirit of truth" said she, SIS but
little known in the world today, be-
cause of disobedience to Gods natural
laws. Man is the temple of the living
God, and the spirit of God dwells in him
and as he. obeys Coos laws he gets in
fullness. God attributes, such as love,
mercy, Justice and the like"
Mrs. Fowler is at the Windsor hotel and
