PREPARING GBLA ATTIRE.
COURT HOUSE AND CITY HALL
SQUARE TO BE HANDSOMELY
IMPROVED
IN HONOR OF CONVENTIONS
Elaborate Flower Reds and Suita-
BILE Designs In Electric Lights.
Part of the Proposed
Programme.

In anticipation Of the several conven-
lions that will be held in st. Paul this
year, elaborate decorations have been
proposed for the exterior of the court
house and city hall, principal among
them being the landscaping of the
grounds and designs in lights over the
principal entrances to the building.
Preliminary to this work, Custodian
Frank Battley is having the large
bronze vases on the Fourth and Waba-
sha street sides of the building painted
IN gold and green, the idea being TO have
the same harmonic with the flower de-
signs that will adorn the lawns. Added
to this the cluster of lights at the two
entrances have been painted and gilded
and in a few days will be wired, and
electricity substituted FOR the gas Ak
lures that they now have. This may
be added to by design in electric lights
that will hang above the doors.
For the. lawn designs, that will be en-
blematic of the several orders to hold
conventions In st. Paul this year, flowers
and plants are now in process of being
grown, and will be transp1anted as soon
as the weather permits. The lawns have
been raked over and grass seed planted
wherever needed.
A meeting of the city hall and court
mouse commission will be called this
week Tor the purpose of arranging for
the filling of the hole where the old tafl
stood A demand will probably be made
on the county commissioners to make
good the damage done, as it is desired to
place the entire grounds in condition
as soon as possible
With the recent controversy arising
from the change in the jail site, this
demand may again bring up the much
discussed question as to who is really
the owner and custodian Of the court
house grounds.

TROUBLES CANE QUICKLY
G. w. DE CORSEY THE VICTIM Or
UNCEASING ILL.,
LUCK
STARTED WITH GARNIsHEE
Once the Bali Started Rolling, 1t
Grew. Rapidly, and Has
Not stopped
Yet.

1t was ordered yesterday by Judge
Lewis, that the demurrer interpoSed by
the defendant to the complaint in the
case of George w. De Corsey, plaintiff,
VS.. John J. Martin and the Northwestern
Adjusting company, defendants, be Sus-
tanned without costs. The case is a typi-
cal bad luck story from beginning to end.
In the complaint wherein plaintiff de-
manded $1,000 for damages to his good
name and credit, it was alleged, that
the Northwestern Adjusting company, in
October, 1900, appeared before Charles
Hoff justice of the peace, and caused
a garnishee summons to be issued against
the goods, chattels and money of plain
tiff, to be attached in the hands of the
Northern Pacific Railway company, as
garnishee. During all Of the summer the
plaintiff had been out of work, and he
had a wife and four children. Just pres
vious to these proceedings he, with his
family, had moved to Livingston, Mont,
where he secured groceries, coal, house,
in short all that he needed, with the
promise to pay out OF his first months
salary from the Northern Pacific COM
pany, for which he had just gone to
work Then the first unpleasant sur
prise came. The road had a system of
holding one months salary. >, Blow No.
2, according to plaintiff, came with the
proceedings, and it cost him much money
to obtain his discharge On top of this,
all his money being gone, ne could not
get credit, as 1t was killed in Living
ston. Then he lest his job, which was
the worst blow of all.
The demurrer, on which the order was
issued, was to the effect that the COM
plant did not state facts sufficient for a
cause of action.

HE SAYS HE WAS ASSAULTED

Oscar. Bean, 1873 Lincoln street north
east, Minneapolis, lies at 81. Luke's hos
pital seriously injured as the result of g.
fall from the Fort Smelling bridge which
he sustained Sunday night
According to the story told by Bean
he was riding bicycle aoros the bridge
at about IL o'clock. Near the east end
of the bridge he was stopped by three
men, who assaulted him. He knew moth
ing more until o'clock the next morn
ing, when he regained cons -iousness and
found that he was lying under the
bridge. On looking through his effects
he discovered that $50 was missing, so
he concluded that he had been assaulted,
robbed and thrown from the b-idge He
was found about an hour later by
George Sahey, hostler, and Jack Wa
couta, bartender, at the Fort Smelling
house. He was carried to the hotel and
DR.. McCourt, who was summoned said
that he had sustained no serious in
juries. At o'clock in the evening he
was removed to St. Lukes hospital,
where it was found by the attending
physicians that the man was suffering
either from a broken back or a spinal
hemorrhage, probably the former
By the attaches of the Fort Smelling
house and the police, Beans story Of the
holdup IS entirely discredited He, with
a gentleman and two lady friends, rode
from Minneapolis to the fort Sunday
morning. In the afternoon his friends
left him and he began drinking freely.
Toward night he became quite intoxi-
Gated. He walked over to the fort and
shortly before midnight became hilarious
and noisy. The guard was called out
by the officer Of the day and Bean was
driven off the reservation. He went
back to Harris place and very excitedly
told how he had been held I'D by a lot
OF soldiers with guns. Little attention
was paid to him and soon after he left
the saloon. The next morning he was
found at the bottom of the steps leading
from the hotel down to the river land
ing.
It Is thought that he started down to-
ward the old ferry house, intending to
stay over night. He was intimate with
man named McGinty, who formerly
had charge of the ferry house and was
in the habit of going there. The steps
are steep and difficult for sober person
to descend About half way down one
Of the steps is partly split off as though
it had been struck by heavy weight.
When found, he was lying ten feet from
the bottom on a pile of rock When
in money and bottle Of whisky were
found on his person. His bicycle was
on the bridge.
Bean Is thirty-four years old and I'M
married. He lives with his parents, Mr.
and Mrs A. P. M. Bean, In Minneapolis
He has been employed at the Progressive
Machinery and Model works, Ais First

He will probably never recover from

LEVEL OF LAKE LOWERED.
Resident Along White Bear Lake
Seek to Restrain Ice Company.

An echo of the sonorous roar raised last
winter by the residents along the shores
of White Bear lake was heard yesterday
before Judge Kelly, when several wit
nesses for the plaintiff, Gen. Sanborn,
were heard in the case against the Peo-
pies Ice company.
It will be remembered that the burden
of the complaint last winter was that the
defendant company, by reason Of indus
triously lifting ice from the frozen sur
face of the lake, was lowering the level Of
that sheet Of water to a degree that made
it yearly more inConvenient for those who
owned boat houses etc.
Four witnesses were examined yeSter-
day and the gist Of their evidence was
that, in the face of a much higher spring
rainfall this year, the level OF the water
had subsidized appreciably since the ice
cutting season. Figures giving annual
precipitation were submitted as follows:
1881, -21. 70 inches; 1892. 32.73; 1893. Is 95;
1894 %. so; 1885, 2426; 1896, 3af73: 1897, 80 80;
1898, 1884; 1899, 27.54; 1900 Gs.47 The av-
erage precipitation for these ten years
has been 1851 inches.s The average since
1887 is 27.50 inches. so that in the past
ten years the precipitation has been above
the average shown in the record since
1887.
It was further stated that the lake has
fallen twenty inches the past ten years
and four inches since last spring. Testi-
mony for the defense will commence to-
day.

Ex-Fire Chief Is Defendant in Ac-

David F. Hennessy's long impending
action against Hart n. Cook, ex-fire chief,
to recover damages for personal injuries
to the extent Of $1,000, has reached the
courts. The complaint states that last
lice officer. and that Cook, fire chief.
struck him with lantern, cutting his
head and ear. He says he was obliged
to pay 50 as doctor bill and that his
ear has panied him ever since.
The answer recites section Of ordi-
nance 1884,, which reads:
No person at fire shall, in the alb
senee of a sufficient excuse, refuse to
eXtinguish the same, nor to obey any
order or direction given by any person
duly authorized by law to order and d.
rect at any fire, nor shall any person re-

The defendant says that he was per-
forming his duty and was obliged to get
busy with his lantern to cary out that
duty. He also says that he was called
bad names, and that his action was
partly in self-defense. Plaintiff agrees to
the section quoted, but denies the last al
