II WAS A DAY OF JOY
DAN MCPHERSON MAKES
RECORD.
Gets Six Charges of Drunkenness in
of the Regulars"

SIX charges of drunkenness in three
days is the record that stand to the
credit of Dan Mcpherson. This morn
ing, with his last chance to bail him
self out he appeared in the nolice court
dock, SOLDERING up perforce.
Number IA, Dan MCPHERSON" "
charged with being drunk" was called
and Dan stood up and pleaded guilty.
The judge fined him S2 and costs and
he sat down.
"NuInber %, Dan MCPHERSON" said
the Deputy Sheriff Chillingworth, and
Mcpherson stood up again, evidently
somewhat bewildered. This time it
was being drunk on the 18TH instead
of the 18th, as in the previous charge.
Mcpherson said it was "the same one
and the Judge let him go with a re-
primand. His troubles were not over
yet, however.
Case number II Dan Mcpherson
again. was called next and once more
Mcpherson rose in his seat. This time
a nolle PROSE- was entered. 1t was the
tail end of the jag. Mcpherson had
bafled himself out too soon and had
started over a~ain. Now he will have
to stay in @ail long enough to satisfy
the laws demands for 81 and costs.
Jacobsen was another man who had
two charges against him and Frank
Lawless made his inevitable reappear-
ance.
Yesterday was a day of joy for the
steady ones. A new saloon, large
place, bright with pretty new fittings
and. best of ALL having hospitable
proprietor, was Opened" That meant
free booze. From the opening time
until the time to close up the place was
crowded, and a few of the regular Gus
toners at Judge WilcOx's dispensary o.
justice fell by the wayside.

JUDGE WILCOX APPLIES FAMOUS
REMARK.
A Roast for Contractors Working on
the Youn~ Building-Mallet's Sen
tence is Suspended.

The public be" said Vanderbilt
once, and Judge Wilcox says that that
is what somebody remarked when he
took charge of the operations at the
big new Young. building. In the case
of j. f. Mallet, who was charged with
doing blasting in a manner dangerous
to the lives of the others. the Judge
suspended sentence, on motion of the
prosecution, sentence being held over
the defendant as an incentive to him
to be careful in the future. He was
fined 500 for a similar offense two
weeks ago.
Mallet pleaded guilty to having set
off dangerous blast, but said that it
was an error. Attorney w. .. Smith
appeared for the plaintiff. He said that
Mallet would probably be very careful
in the future if he knew that he was
liable at any time to bo called into
court and sentenced without another
trial. The blasting was necessary in
the construction of a great public i'm
provement as it had been necessary
for other buildings, and Smith prom
ised that great care would be exer-
cised in future.
1T seems to me- said Judge Will
cox, that the people who are putting
up that building have been "oing ahead
all the time without the least regard
for the rights of others. They have
flooded our streets for weeks at a time,
and complaints did no good. They put
| no pipes in to carry the water, and
| then they began to blast and send rocks
| over the streets. 1t looks like the
! public be damned policy all through
"In this case | shall suspend sentence
| for four months. In the meantime IL
| there are further complaints the defen-
| dant will be liable 70 summary sem
| tence."

TO FLOAT McBRYDE STOCK.
Large Quantity May be Sold on the
Coast.

c. H. w. Norton took passage on
the Miowera last night for Vancouver.
Considerable interest is attached to his
departure by stock brokers as he is
said to have an option on 100000 worth
of McBryde Sugar stock which he pro-
poses to float on the Coast 1t is said
thought by many prominent brokers
that the time for floating some of the
stocks OF the newer plantations is ripe
and that capitalists will take advan-
tage of the opportunity for invest
ment.
Whether Mr. Norton is acting solely
for himself is not generally known but
it is thought very likely that some OF
the stock is held by himself. The mis-
sion of Mr.. Norton evidently had an
influence upon the McBryde stock as
it has risen nearly a point today some

February Was Colder Than Usual,
but 1t Had No Violent Extremes.
In his monthly weather review for Feb
ruary Observer Lyons says:
Although last month was not by any
means a severe winter month, as COM
pared with the corresponding one Of last
year, yet it averaged precisely the same
as 1t In temperature, and, in fact, there
has been only one other February colder
than 1t since 1870, and 1t was the one of
1875. 1t averaged degree colder. The cold
last month was not of the kind to make
itself felt emphatically, for 1t was steady
and evenly distributed. OF the twenty
eight days, the temperature when at it's
lowest went from l to Is degrees below
zero on seventeen of them; 1t went con-
siderably below the freezing point every
night Of the month, and rose above freeZ-
ing only on three days of that time. AS
to precipitation, there was less than ay-
erage. but otherwise about average condi-
tons prevailed
The average February temperature for
st. Paul and vicinity. determined from
the last thirty years record, is Is degrees;
the average for last month is degrees.
The corresponding months of 1877 and
1873 were the warneSt on record, each
having an average temperature of 80 de-
grees. The highest temperature regis
t6TGu leiSC WIS anu the lowest
Is degrees below zero, on the 7th and 9Th
respectively.
The average precipitation, rain and
melted snow, determined the same as
temperature, Is 80 of an inch. Nearly all
that fell last month was of the character
of snow, and it yielded 7S of an inch
of water. There was much less than that
during the corresponding months of 1871,
1872, 1877, 1888, 1885, 1886. 1889 and 1885, and
mostly every one of the rest had more.
The most is credited to 1881. It had 2.65
inches. The dryest February since 1870
was in 1877. 1t having only Oh of an inch.
There were seven clear. fourteen partly
cloudy and seven cloudy days last month.
and six days on which Oh of an inch or
more OF rain or snow fell. The total
snowfall, If unmelted, would make a
depth of 10 inches. The wind blew often
er from the northwest than from any 9th
er point. The total movement In miles
from all directions was 6.065 miles; high
est velocity. determined from five min
utes' record, northwest, thirty-six miles
an hour, on the 24th.

embarrassing complication of circum-
stances that resulted in the arrest of w.

ceeded in locating him when ne walked
into the central station yesterday to re-
new acquaintance with his old friend
Sergeant Wright Mr.. Winslow knew
nothing OF the request for his arrest. and
his warm greeting caused Sergeant
Wright much embarrassment. The disa-
greeable news was broken as gently as
possible and Mr.. Winslow was taken into
custody. He expressed surprise and de-
clared he could not understand why his
arrest was desired. He was held several
hours. however, but when no reply was
received to the telegram sent from here

Takes n Coffin and Boards the
Warship, Making u Demand for a
BOdy-IS Arrested, When tho De-
ception Practiced Is Learned.
NEW ORLEANS. La. March IA ro-
nance that has developed distressing
complications became public here today.
Last night an excited young man drove to
the head of Canal street, accompanied
by an undertaken and coffin. He fran
tically cried for boat to take him to
the battleship Texas. saying he was
Capt. Clark and In command. A boat
was obtained, and Capt. Clark was
rowed out. He went aboard the war
ship, introduced himself. and said that
he had come for the body of Lieut.. Col
son, who had died on the ship. The Of
ficers of the ship, believing him unbal-
anced. sent him ashore
Today IT developed that Capt Clark
had married a young lady from Cincin~
natl here, after two days courtship. The
bride IS Miss Bertha Warten. She came
here with her brother-in-law, Alex Arcn>
son, business man of Cincinnati, and
Mrs. Aronson, and went to a MOTEL He
became fascinated with Miss Warten
and sent a card to her room, teIlnG

cation and soon satisfied himself that tho
man was either insane or an imposter.
Detectives were called in and the groom
was locked up in a cell. When the
bride realized her situation she collapsed
and was taken seriously i'll.
CONFLICTING STORIES
At the police station Clark told num-
Der of conflicting stories. He said first
that he was James e. Clark, a lawyer,
of Cincinnati, but no such name could be
found in the Cincinnati directory. Sub
sequently he was identified as J. J.
Moyse. of Greenville. Miss. The gen.
eral impression Is that he is unbal>
anced.
Moyse said he served In the Fifth Mis-
sfssippi immune regiment during ths
war and that he had obtained his UNI
form while in the service.
The federal officials were notified of his
arrest and 1t is stated that if he is not
proved to be insane he will be prosecuted
for impersonating a government officer.
Capt. Clark" took his arrest coolly.
When arrested he had may kilograms in
his pocket. One he had written at the
telegraph Office when Mr.. Aronson was
with him. 1t had apparently not been
sent but read as follows:
