SCHOOL BOARD IS WAITED ON nv
DELEGATIONS FROM TWO
DISTRICTS
MAXFIELD AND THE DREW
Board Holds an Executive Session
to Consider the Purchase
of Sites for
Schools.

Two indignant delegations related their
woes to the board of school inspectors
at it's meeting yesterday
County Auditor w. r. Johnson appear
ed at the head Of a number of residents
of the Benjamin Drew district who want
better accommodations provided, and a
large committee of women waited upon
the board to protest against the further
continuance Of the teachers training
school in the Maxfield building. Their
plea was in part as follows:
That about ten years ago a training
school department was added to said
Maxfeld school, which has ever since
been maintained for the very laudable
purpose of training young women and
men for the active duties of teachers In
the public schools of said city, and Civ
ing them actual experience in the duties
of the school room.
That in the practical working of said
department immature and unskilled
young women are selected as teachers of
our children who, however earnest they
may be, cannot and do not possess the
qualifications Of experienced teachers, and
by reason Of the constant change of
teachings rendering it necessary by such
training department that pupils do not
more than get fairly acquainted with one
teacher and her ways and methods Of
teaching before her place is taken by an
other, and totally Inexperienced teacher,
new to said pupils, and whose ways and
methods of teaching are different from
her predecessors.
D. T. Wellington was chosen truant Of
1cer, and number Of changes in the
teaching staff recommended by the COM
mittee on schools were Confirmed
An opinion by Corporation Attorney
Markham, as to the purchase of school
sites, was considered in executive session.
but no decision was announced as to the
purchase of needed land.

TALKED OF THEIR FIGHTS
VETERANS OF MANY REGIMENTS
MEET TO RECALL THEIR
WAR RECORDS
ATTENDANCE VERY LARGE
Fourth, Fifth end Sixth All Held
Reunions and Elected Officers
SanbOrn Is Re-
elected.

The reunion of the Fourth Minnesota,
in the court house yesterday, was most
interesting and enjoyable session. There
was a larger turnout than in many years
past, and the occasion was not lost by
the veterans to recall the days of Cor
NTH, Altoona, Vicksburg, and many
others Of the campaign in the far south.
Gen. John 3. Sanborn, who has been the
commander for years, was again elected
with Secretary Alonzo L, Brown. The
general made the opening address and
complimented the boys on their especially
fine physical appearance this year. Let
tiers were received from all parts of the
union from many members who were
unable to attend on account of distance
and increasing age. The deaths Of those
who have fallen by the Wayside during
the past year were not as numerous as
usual, although Company D seems to
have suffered severely The commander
was empowered to attend the call for
the organization Of all the Minnesota
survivors of the rebellion, which is to
be held at the state house this morning,
and take any action there he saw fit as
long as it would not affect the regimental
organization. The monument commit
tee will hold over until the next session,
which will be held in court room No.
next year during fair week. The sec
rotary reported the finances to be in the
best of shape, and the society healthy in
every respect. It was the eighteenth an
nual reunion. Following is list of those

MAKING IT'S ENDS Met
LIBRARY BOARD FINDS THIS TO
BE A VERY DIFFICULT
TASK
NO MONEY FOR BUYING BOOKS
After Wages and other Charges
Are Paid There Will Be None
Left-Assets and Lin
biIities.

The library board met last night and at
tempted to find some way of paying $4,000
worth of bills with $1,000 to their credit
with the city treasurer. Eighteen hun
dred dollars was paid on salaries and
bills, of which $SSS33 was the pay roll for
the month of August Several necessary
increases in salary We're allowed by the
committee on administration, with whom
in the future such matters will rest ex-
clusively
1t seems likely that the auditorium on
leased shortly. The committee on build
ings was given power to take final ac-
ton on the contract An additional coun-
ter, for the use of the registration clerk,
and a few other necessary OUTLAWS were
authorized.
Mrs. Metcalf again brought up the cry
ing need for new books but in spite of
the fact that scarcely a thousand volumes
have been purchased in year, and none
for six months, it was impossible to spend
any money in that direction, and the out
look for the future is not much better
With only $4,000 to $1,000 to run the rest
of the year on, and an income of scarcely
$1,000 in prospect for 1901 there are at
present over $4,000 in current bills out
standing, most of which is on unpaid in
surance policies. The total debts amount
to $4,000 1t will be impossible/t to buy
books for some time
Mr.. Young brought in the books which
are to be used in conducting the affairs
Of the library. An expert accountant has
been at work on them for some time,
getting affairs in shape to open up the
set The system is model of its kind
At any time an inspection may be ordered
by the city all the totals of the money
left to the credit of any of the various
funds may be seen a glance. A balance
sheet was taken off, showing the exact
state of affairs at the time the present
board took charge. Every item entering
into that sheet had been checked by some
member of the old board or was ascer-
tanned to be correct in some other way.
The trial balance for this month is the
same, except that approximately $4,000
| have been collected in rents.
The librarians report for August was
read and accepted. There were issued
1886 books, 9S5 visitors to the reading
rooms on Sundays, 0,000 cards in force,
$50 was collected in fines.
Several leases were renewed at in
creased prices, and an allowance made
in others. where it was claimed that they
did not gain possession at the stipulated

same proportions. -
There will be other prominent speakers

! Is expected to address the audience, as is
also John j. johnson, of st. Peter, and
probably some of the Sixth district ora

HAD TWO GATHERINGS.
Second Regiment Enjoyed a Most
Delightful Reunion.

The Second regiment met at $50 Cedar
yesterday afternoon and evening, and
held a very successful reunion. Gen.
J. w Bishop, the commander, and
former Mayor A R. Kiefer, the secre-
tary, were reelected No action in re-
gard to the state orgd 1izlrion was taken,
as nearly all the members expect to at
tend the session at the capitolTthis morn
ing, which has been called for that pur-
pose. Letters were received from com
.ades in nearly every state in the Union
from Virginia to Washington. All ex-
pressed their regre- at their inability to
attend. Conn ade Rhodes was elected
as regimental historian, to take care of
all such ma tiers in the future as ought
to be recorded. Every one is requested
to notify him of the death Of any of
the members of the old regiment, ana
in turn those wishing to gather inforna-
ton may apply % him.
During the evening the members Ieas-
sembled and held a camp fire. Comrade
Miller sang THE Army Bean"
All the boys had stories to relate and
addresses to offer. Among those who
spoke were Comrades Fitch. Farrell,
Gibbons, Berger, Wright. Wilson and

over in special interurban cars, and will
meet the ST. Paul and Ramsey county
organization at Smith park at 1880. The
Mill City expects to come over 500 strong.
Reserved seat tickets can be secured
either at the county or state headquarters
during the day.
Pref. wilhelm Peterson, of Minneapolis,
and Surgeon Odell, Of Marshall, are the
strongest candidates for secretary of
state. 1t Is quite probable that an I'M
derstanding will be had as to which Of
these two gentlemen will be gwen the
nomination, and the possibility Of an I'M
profitable contest upon the matter will
be ptecluded.
All Indications new point to the NOM
ination Of IT. G. Koerncr of Shallopee
now deputy public examiner under Elk
aminer Pope, as state treasurer. HIS
candidacy for this office has been gen
orally acknowledged for some time
he will make creditable showing upon
the ticket is accepted by all.
Railroad Commissioners Knox and
Ringdahl will be renominated, unless
there is some change in affairs quite
as unlikely as that the convention will
not be held. The third man for this Of
ice will in all probability be M. E. Neary,
of the Mill city. Mr.. Neary is identified
with the State Federation of Labor as
executive of that body, and will poll Il
very strong following, both in the con
vention and at the polls.
After the convention and its business
has been entirely concluded, there will
be one of the largest and most demon
strative rallies and mass meetings in the
Auditorium which the people of this state
have witnessed for many years. This
meeting will take place in the evening
and will begin at about o'clock. It will
be the signal for the Democrats of the
