TROUBLE AT The LAKE.
LAKE PARK HOTEL, MINNEToNKA
CLOSED BY DEPUTY SHERIFF.

The season at the Lake Park hotel
Lake Minnetonl1a, has come to a sudden
close, and those of the guests who In
tended to remain as long as the present
climatic conditions should continue have
been unexpectedly forced to seek other
quarters.
Monday afternoon a deputy sheriff call
ed at the hotel to serve an attachment of
$3.50 upon Manager Strong, but that gen.
tleTnan was nowhere to be found, and the
officer was informed that he had not been
seen about the hotel during the past five
days. His wife, who was associated with
him In the management OF the hotel,
finally consented to accept service, but
while the officer was searching the prem
ises she took q boat and departed The
search revealed about 500 in the safe,
and the money was taken In charge by
the officer.
There were about eighty guests in the
house, and they were for a time very
uneasy as to the safety of their personal
effects, fearing that perhaps they might
be levied upon. They were treasured on
that ground. but only to find themselves
confronted by another condition almost
as alarming, for the unpaid help Of the
house went on strike, and refused to
serve a meal or perform any other labor
until they had received their wages
Finally a meal was provided, and yester-
day morning most of the guests DEPART
ed.
It Is said that in spite of prosperous
season, Strong Is in arrears to q large
amount on his bills. Clerk Julian was
engaged yesterday in settling up the bust
ness, and the proceeds will be used in
paying the help.

B|XBY GRABS THE HORNS
RELEASES THE INDIANS TO THEIR
FATE TO LOOK AFTER MINNIE
sofa REPUBLICANS
YIELDS TO MR.. HITCHCOCK
In Spite of President McKinIey's
known Favor, He Declines to
Embarrass His Chief, the
Secretary of Interior.

Tams Bixby, according to special dis
patch from Muskogee, Ind. Ter, to the
Kansas City Star, yesterday sent to
Secretary of the Interior Hitchcock his
resignation as a member Of the Dawes
commission, of which he was chairman
Although Mr.. Bixby has been consider
ably interested in the disposition Of the
affairs Of the five tribes, for which he re-
cefved some annual remuneration at Uncle
Sans hands, 1t has been known that the
Red Wing strategist was loath to dis
sever himself completely firm the spirit
of political life in Minnesota.
This year, John GoodnoW being busy
butting off Boxers from the Shanghai
consulate, Tams was invited to return
and see if he could not overturn the Lind
dynasty, which had gained possession of
the patronage while Tams was lining
the five tribes up to the annuity distri-
button.
Tams was a little tickled at this rec
ognition of the fact that, though lost
to sight he was to memory dear, in the
Republican machine mans mind at least,
and he would have come in a minute, but
that Mr. Hitchcock, who is serving as
ley's cabinet, had, a short time before,
and without due regard to the sore needs
of the Republican party in this particular
case, ruled that any subordinate of the
department who da billed in politics, to the
neglect of his official duty, would have his
yellow jacket torn into shreds as soon as
the matter came to official notice.
Tams was never so vain as to overlook
the main chance. Instead af assuming
that he had rendered himself so valuable
to Mckinley that the president would toss
Hitchcock, rather than lose Tams, the
Red Wing boy trotted down to Washing
ton to see Bill himself
r The president was pretty busy, but he
opined that while the Democrats were
claiming Minnesota. he thought they had
another guess, and as for intruding, as
an official. upon the disciplinary rulings
| of the secretary of the interior, the presi-
dent could not think of such a thing.
So Tams went back to Muskogee and
wrote out his resignation. Of course, he
could have written it in the president s
back room, but then Tams knows, as
to pull Van SAINT through his earnest eff
forts to carry the stae for the Mckinley
electors will assure him that his only alb
sence from Uncle Sans pay roll will be
from now until after election, when he
viii be cared for somewhere.
OF course he will not be given John
Goodnow's job, perhaps not anything as
good as that, but the national administra-
ton Will see to 1t that any time he loses
between now and the middle of November
will be made UP, and 1t need not neces-
sarlly be job where he has to learn five
| Indian dialects, either.

FOR 4 new DRIVEN AY
THE PARK hoard WILL widen
DUNLAP STREET


The widening Of Dunlap street to a
Iz0-foot driveway was definitely decided
upon by the park board at their session
last night The intention is adequately
to connect the Summit avenue boulevard
and Como park by a driveway which
shall assist In joining all the drives In
the city into one grand pleasure-way.
When Lexington avenue was fixed up
by the city it was considered the best
place, for the improvement, but the spir-
it necessary to carry the idea to compile
ton does not seem to exist among the
property owners along that street, and So
far as Lexington is concerned the mat
ter has been droppedysis1 ps29
Dunlap street is one block farther out.
and Is in many respects better adapted
for the proposed boulevard. 1t lies along
the top of slightsroll, which is the high
est in that locality. and is level enough
for the purpose. Commencing at Sum
nit, sixty feet on.,the3 east side of Dun
lap, as it stands at present, is to be con-
demned as far as; st. Anthony avenue:
from that point the condemnation pro-
ceedtngs are to be brought on the west
side Of Dunlap. Just at the point where
the change Of sides Is to be effected. Ron
do meets st: Anthony, at a very small
angle, and within this angle, extending
as far as Dunlap. there is small piece
will afford ample room for the slight
curve which will necessarily come there.
The entire block between Dunlap and
Lexington, adjoining the bridge over the
Great Northern tracks, will be condemn
ed and the drive brought cornerwise
across to the bridge. This expedient will
save the building of second bridge.
From that place to Como park the prop
erty to one side Of Lexington Is owned
by the Northern Pacific railrad. The
company has already agreed to donate
whatever will be needed to widen Lex
ington to 120 feet.
The property facing the street will be
greatly benefited by the change and con-
sequently the lots will not cost very much
to the city, as most of the land In that
vicinity is owned In large parcels and
the same men whose land is appropriated
will appreciate the increased valua-
ton.
The board passed resolution request
ing plans of the driveway from the city
engineer and the board of public works
to commence the condemnation proceed
ings and estimate the damage If any
to the desired property.
