HOMES FOR LITTLE ONES
CHII4DREN's HOME SOCIETY APP
PEAI4S TO THE GENEROUS.

A dispatch from Sioux Falls states that
the Children's Home Society of North Da-
kota has just received Sc, 900 from C. X.
Howard president of the Western South
Dakota Stockmen's association, toward
the erection Of its new receiving houe
This Is noble gift for a most worthy
object and worthy of imitation by others.
The Children's Home Society of Min
nesota has much need of a similar build
ing and has undertaken to secure $4,000
for its erection. About half Of that sum
mas been pledged, and the directors are
endeavortng to secure the rest
Inc Minnesota associations last annual
report showed that in the year ending
April 80, 1900, there had been received for
the first time 13s children, 81 had been
returned to it's care and 81 were in charge
at the beginning Of the year, making a
total of 22l children. Fffty-six had been
placed in homes for the first time 30 re-
placed In homes, and 63 returned to their
friends, placed In other Institution and
otherwise provided for, and q were in
charge at the closa Of the year
The expenses had been $9,71234, and the
receipts $40, 1864
The total number of children that bo,,o
been cared for by the society from Sert
Il, 1883. to July 1, 1900, is 1541
Hundreds of homes in the state are now
sheltering the once homeless little ones
through the agency of this society.
Inc ChiIdren's Home society is now or
ganized in about half of the states of the
Union. The annual meeting was recently
held at Indianapolis, where reports from
twenty-five of the states showed that
there had been SOL children in charge
during the year, 2.349 of whom had been
placed in homes, and more than 1880
children in all had been cared for
An agency that does not keen the chill
dred housed up in great buildings. but
places them out as soon as practica BILE
| IN carefully selected homes, making both
the child and the household happy. Is
worthy of the cordial assistance of the
generous, and the directors hope some
philanthropic Minnesotan will emulate the
example of the generous South Dakotan.

CYCLE PATH ASSOCIATION
WILL CUT WEEDS. AND BOYCOTT A
PERUVIAN.

Arrangements were made at yesterdays
meeting OF the directors of the St Paul
Cycle Path association to have the weeds
cut from some OF the paths where the
edges have become overgrown and gener-
ally the cycle path system of the city will
be trimmed up. No new paths were or
dered constructed, but considerable repair
work was authorized.
Chief of Police OConnor was given in
dorsement because of his policy towards
scorchers and wheeImen who persist In
riding without lanterns. A resolution
was passed expressing the approval of
the board of the policy pursued.
The board decided to boycott the ferry
man at Mendoza. Last year, when the
Mendoza path was built, a promise was
secured from the feryman at that point
by committee consisting Of DR.. ]. c.
Nelson, George L. Wilson ana ]. E. Mey-
ers to charge wheelmen but five cents to
cross, in consideration Of which the asso-
ciatlen would build the path and thereby
increase the travel on the ferry. This
year wheelmen have to pay 10 cents to
cross, while individuals without wheels
cross for five cents. The discrimination.
in vidN Of the agreement, gives what the
association considers reasonable cause for
complaint. and 1t was decided to boycott

and Murphy. held an interesting meeting
In the city hall at o'clock Yesterday

chosen, but after prolonged discussion a
resolution was passed that the committee
meet today at p. m. and go in body to

agree upon SINE one or more of them
and lay the matter Of the choice before
the council
The sites to be viewed are those known
as the Broadway; the Constance, on
Jackson; block 10, between Ninth and
Tenth streets; House of Hope site, and
the Eagle site.
Mr.. Peet, from the Chamber OF Com
morce, addressed the committee, dwelling
upon the Importance Of the commission
business being fostered and encouraged.
and giving a detailed history. He said
that the commission men wanted to stay
on Third street. having built and laid
plans to stay there, and he desired that
nothing should be done to draw business
away from that location IF the market
site is changed to some other locality, -
SAID Mr.. Peet, they will scatter again. >"
referring to the grocers and farmers. he
stated that the market site should be To-
Gated where 1t is convenient for such, and
said that above all. we want to keep
this business and keep farmers from 60
ing elsewhere. There should be a good
market site. and 1t should be located at
once. He preferred the Wabasha street
bridge site, facing Second street.
Mr. Caulfield urged that some site be
selected that would be of advantage to
the various interests.
Mr.. Corcoran called attention to the
many farmers living near st. Paul who
go to Minneapolis to trade, and he
thought representatives of the market
site ought not to rest until a market site
Is chosen and secure that trade for this
city. Get market site, but don't scat
ter commission men," was his advice.
Mr.. Warner made the statement that
1.-The display of vegetables in our markets
heats the world, and that display ought
to be In desirable locality"
The committee will take into consfdera-
ton the cost Of the different sites, the
expense in building, and will listen to the
various parties interested before the loca-
tlon Is fully decided upon.
