men: Referring to the letter Of Mr.. VIII
liam Minser, addressed to your board
under the date Of Feb. 5, and in accord
ance with your verbal request for an
opinion as to whether members Of the
United States regular army are exempt
from personal property taxation, 1 beg
to submit the following:
Mr.. Minser refers to an exemption I'M
der the statutes of this state, but a very
thorough examination thereof falls to
disclose such an exemption and 1 am
advised by the United States district at
tc1ney's office that an examination of the
federal statute fails to show that these
people are exempt
l therefore beg to advise you that the
relief applied for by Mr.. M!nser should
not be granted

FREEMAN CASE N COURT
LEGALITY OF VACCINATION ORDI-
NANCE TO BE JUDICIALIIY
DETERMINED
TEST CASE rs BROUGHT
ReIatOr Contends That All Children
Of School Age Must Be Adj
mitted Under the
Statute.
TEST CASE IS BROUGHT

Judge Lewis of the district court, yes
terday heard the order to show cause in
the case of The State of Minnesota ex
rel. Frank d. Freeman, against the mem
bers of the school board, Superint endent
of Schools Lewiston, Principal Mary Man
ion and Rose Carroll a teacher in the
German school. The action was brought
to compel the respondents to admit lit
tie Edith Freeman to the school, without
being vaccinated, and is a test case.
Attorney Pike, for the relator, in asking
for a peremptory writ of mandamus to
compel the respondents to admit the girl,
contended that the statute. not the char
ter, should govern. The provision of the
statute was that all children living in the
district, between the ages of five and
twenty-one years, must be received in
school. This, Mr.. Pike claimed, was a
constitutional right which could not be
abrogated by the charter.
The assistant corporation attorney ask
ed that the writ be quashed on the
ground that it did not state sufficient
facts, and was not properly drawn up.
He also made motion that the peremp-
tory writ be denied, and after hearing
arguments on both motions the court
took them under Amusement
The respondents in their return allege
that in refusing to admit little Edith
Freeman until she would be vaccinated
they were simply acting in accordance
with the charter and the order Issued
by Health Commissioner DIR. Ohage, re-
Quiring all children to be vaccinated be-
fore they could attend school, This order
was issued to guard against the spread
ing of contagious diseases. Further, the
respondents set up the allegations that an
epidemic of smallpox existed in the city
and other towns, and that it was the duty
of the health commissioner to enforce
the ordinance relating to vaccination by
issuing the above order.

covered that one Of the largest fiKns in
the city was surreptitiously attempting
TO block the union in it's attempt to Sc
cure nine-hour schedule for the COM
ing year.
A committee of plumbers, of Minncap-
oils, visited DR.. Ames the first of the
week and presented the Endorsement of
their union for George Bigowet, who is
candidate for an assistant Inspector
ship under DR.. Hall.
Ten now members were initiated and
twenty applications were placed on file
at the last meeting of the bartenders
union, in Minneapolis.
There is well defined movement on
foot among the members of the Mime
apolis city council to cut down the
length of the working day of laborers
employed on city work from ten to eight
hours. The ten hour rule prevails in
most of the wards at present, but III
those sections of the city where the
shorter Workday Is in use is is claimed
that the amount of work done by one
man IN eight hours Is as great as that
cone in other wards in ten and that the
work is done much better.
The Minneapolis Trades and Labor or
ganizatien committee is now organizing
what are known as Ladies' Label
leagues in different parts Of the city.
The purpose of these organizations is to
pledge all the union women in this city
to buy only such household goods as bear
the union label.
The painters and master painters of
Minneapolis held meeting Monday
evening to consider the matter of a
working contract for the coming year,
but were unable to come to an agree
ment. 1t was definitely decided how
ever, to settle all points at issue with
out resorting to strike or lockout Both
sides are willing to arbitrate, and would
prefer to compromise rather than take
any action which would interfere with
the seasons work.
-Four of the unions in Minneapolis con-
nected with the building trades have
formulated their demands for the COM
ing year, and the same have been APP
proved by the Building Trades council,
and the schedules formally transmitted
to the contractors association for its
consideration. These are the plasterers,
bricklayers, carpenters and stonema-
sons unions.
With the exception of the plasterers
they decided to make no marked changes
from last years schedules. The brick
layers received fifty cents per hour last
year and ask for the same this year
The stone masonS value their services
at forty cents, which was last years
schedule. The carpenters have put in a
request for an advance of one cent an
hour, 3213 cents, against BIC cents in
1900. The rlasterers received forty-three
cents per hour last year. Their 1901
schedule calls for an advance of seven
cents an hour. The painters have not
yet been heard from.

ciate the better kind of work in singing,
dancing and monologue and repartee s.
Everything will be new. That may not
strictly apply to some of the perform
ers, for many of them have won the re-
gard and appreciation of the theater-
going public in St. Paul and even else
where before this. Some have been pro-
fessionals who are now amateurs, but
all will give their best work, for the
cause
However familiar some Of the names
of participants may be, there is not
song, a Joke, or a dance, but will be
new acquaintance. There will be no
old friends. to recall, but new things to
carry away and laugh over afterwards.
Not all the performers will be Elks, but
the majority will be members of st.
Paul lodge and the rest will be recruits
giving their services freely.
The chorus will have the first chance
at public applause. Out of the lOO
PLAYERS, so are members of the chorus.
Their work is expected to do due credit
to Director Selling, and Settings band
will supply the instrumental part OF the
music.
Playgoers know that the olio COM
prehends the songs, dancing and fun
and mimicry, done by individuals or by
pairs or trios. This is too large in its
scope to be more than briefly described.
The best description of it in the shortest
space can be conveyed in the names OF
the entertainers as they will be found
below. And surely Billie Tomkins, Mrs.
Louis Nash, Little Hazel Barer, Al g.
Flournoy, F. H. Tenney, Mrs. Frank
Smith and the Elk song and dance team
are each and all host in themselves.
The ,endmen, whose names are given
below. are old friends, but their jokes
will be of the vintage Of March, 1901.
And the solemn face of Harry Hard1ck,
put on for this occasion, will add due
point and merit with the gravity OF
the interlocutor to the mirth brought
out
The sale of seats will commence Tues-
day morning at 9 o'clock at the Metro
politan box Office The choice of any
seat in the house will be open to the
first conner, for not one will be SOLD pc
forehand or put aside for any person.
ANY one that comes late may take what
is left. From the public interest aroused
in this show it looks as if it would be
a sad mistake to be late.
The boxes will be auctioned Off tomor-
row afternoon at the same place at 2
o'clock. Indications point to fancy
prices for these view points Of vantage.

SUCCESS OF TRANSFERS UNION.
Members Are Now Enjoying the
Fruits of Organization.

Fruits of Organization.
One short year has passed since the
team drivers Of this city were about the
most forlorn of that large class of our
fellow men who earn their bread through
daily toll. Between the coal barons,
whose large profits were enhanced in
LSoportion to the low wages paid for de-
liVering, the ice trust, which grew fat
and t1ourished in proportion to the
amount Of suffering endured by the ice
teamstefs, and the Forrestal company,
whose fat contract with the city was
made more profitable through the pit
lance paid the Transfers who were in
their employ the small sum remaining to
the team drivers after paying for feed
ing their horses and incidental expenses,
brought scaIt food and small comforts
to the wives and children supported by
this class of toilers. Happily for them,
through the energy of James Page, in
which he was only supported by John
Geary and others their condition has
been much improved by the formation
of a Team Drivers union which has had
a wonderful growth, and Is now one of
the most successful OF the many organi-
cations of laboring men. From the city
they have asked that their work is not
to come into competition with outside
labor which neither pays taxes nor con-
tributes to a rent roll 1t has compelled
the Forrestal company to recognize their
work at something like its true value,
by increasing the pay of a teamsteT,
who furnished his own team and wagon

COLLEGE OF PEDAGOGY.
State Educators Are Strongly in Fa-
vOr of the Scheme.

State educators are greatly interested
IN the project to establish a college of
state university and located between the
Twin Cities, preferably at HamIine. The
university at present has a department
OF pedagogy, but it is largely expert
teaching. The new school, which is pro
posed would be broader in scope and
would give graduates of normal schools
opportunity for advanced study.
Schools of pedagogy are now attached
to all the leading universities and have
proved valuable acquisition. The ex-
pense to the university would be about
rived would be inestimable The pro
posed college is really a professional
school for educators While the work
would lead to degree, it would be
largely elective, the student being per-
mitted to take work in any line desired.
