ing held yesterday The report Of the
board shows the rainfall for the year end
ing Dec. 81, 1892 was 27.34 inches, much of

The St Paul Bricklayers' union held a
largely attended meeting at Assembly
hall last evening, at which the wage scale
for the ensuing year was adopted. The
bricklayers determined to demand 50 cents
an hour for an eight hour day, and this

cents an hour. The new scale has already
been adopted In Minneapolis In order to
permit contractors to complete the work
at present in progress, the 50-cent scale

ONLY ACTUAL EXPENSES.
Mayor Kiefer Limits the Detectives
on Official Trips.

Mayor Kiefer has put his foot down
on the practice of paying the members
If the detective department large fees for
bringing back prisoners wanted by the
county. Recently a bill for s29, in favor
of Detective NJ z. Sweeney for mileage
in bringing to the city a prisoner, was
passed by the board of county commits
sioners. The mayor, as chairman of the
county board, refused to sign the war
rant. The mayor takes the position that
the salary of the detectives is paid while
they are away on trips of this kind, ana
only actual expenses are to be allowed.
The idea of paying members Oh the ponce
denartment mileage at ten cents per mile
when they ride on passes, the mayor con-
tends, is not right.

HOSPITAL NURSES QUIT.
Dissatisfaction With the sssalaries
Paid mt the City, Hospital.

"a. - L. p .rff
Two Of the nurses at the city hospital
have quit and it is stated that about a..
dozen more of the twenty-eight employed
there will leave unless the wages are
raised Demand was made by the nurses
through DR.. Ancker for an increase from
the present salary of $40 per month, but
the board Of control refused to make any
Increase in the wages. Chairman Ker-
win, of the board of control, says the
board is unit that the wages of nurses
be not increased and also that other and
competent nurses can be secured to take
the places of those who will leave
DR.. Ancker would not discuss the mat
ter and Secretary Tong was also reticent,
saying that Chairman Kerwin would do
all the talking about the matter.
In order to become nurse at the city
hospital 1t is necessary to make applica-
ton, furnish recommendations, and, upon
being chosen, serve a year without pay
and furnish clothing. At the end of a
year the board of control can then hire
the apprentice If the years record has
been satisfactory. With the exception of
the head nurse, the highest wage paid Is
$40 month.

SHOT GUN QUARANTINE.
Frank Foster Tells a Story of an Ok
Iahoma Passenger.

Frank Foster has just returned from
a trip down through Oklahoma, and on
the way down he saw the workings of
the quarantine which now exists be-
tween Kansas and Kay county, Ok.
There are a good many cases of small
pox, or chickenpox, or whatever the
disease may be, in Kay county, but it is
extremely mild, and when the Kansas
state board of health established g
quarantine against Kay county two
did not like it and they have retaliated
by quarantining against Kansas.
On the train on which MI. Foster went
down to Guthrie was a Kansas trav-
cling man who wished to get off at one
of the Kay county stations. He had
heard that there would be a guard at
the depot to keep Kansas people from
getting off there, but as it was in the
night he planned to outwit the guard by
getting off the train on the opposite
side from the depot and hiding among
freight cars on the sidetracks until ev-
erything had become quiet Then he
out molestation.
The plan worked all right until he
was we'll off the train with his grips,
but as he was preparing to creep in
among the freight cars the barrels of
three Shotguns were suddenly present ed
to his head, and behind each gun was a
determined looking man. AT the same
time he heard command to get back
on the train. The men behind the guns
seemed to have the better of the argu-
ment, and the travelling man threw his
to another more hospitable stopping

WARRANTS REFUSED.
Boys Encouraged In Thefts by Fail
ure of Officials to Act

The petty thieving by boys ranging
in age from u to 20 years continues and
the police are unable to stop it.
Boys have been arrested repeatedly,
fined small amounts in police court
and worked out their fines on the rock
pile. But the rock pile has no terrors
for them and as soon as freed they con-
tinue their stealing. The county attor-
ney's office refuses to issue warrants
against them. Last night DR.. c. B.
Hamilton's barn was entered and a lap
robe and several other articles stolen.
The same boys, named Cooper, were ar
rested a few weeks ago for breaking in
to DR.. Hamilton's barn. DR.. Hamilton
requested a warrant to be issued from
the county attorneys office charging
them with burglary and the warrant
was refused. The place for these youth
full thieves is in either the reform school
or the Hutchinson reformatory, but
they can not be sent here unless arrest
ed on a state warrant. The county
attorneys office seems to be afraid to
issue warrants so near the time for the
spring primaries. .
