FIVE LARGE SHOPS
GREAT NORTHERN WILL BUILD
AN IMMENSE INSTITU-
TION
COST CLOSE TO ONE MILLION
Will BE Located on Dale Street,
Near Minnehaha - Equipped
With Finest Modern
Machinery.

Plans for the big Great Northern shops
to be located on the east side of Dale
street, between Minnehaha street anu the
railroad tracks, were filed with the city
buiI0lng department yesterday afternoon.
The arrangement cOntemplates five i'm
mense buildings of steel and concrete
construction, each one story in height
and to cost, exclusive of machinery and
approaches, $256. 600. When equipped with
modern car-making and repair machin-
cry and numerous side and spur tracks
the cost for the institution complete viii
not fall far snort of $1,000 600.
The principal building will be the ma
chine shop, which will have a frontage
of 100 feet and a depth of 600 feet The
foundations for this building of mas
sive construction, and include piling that
has been driven to an average depth Of
50 feet.
Another big building will be the boiler
shop, which will be 235x425. and win be
arranged to accommodate travelling
cranes and hosting machinery of heavy
Character.
4 n addition to these two big buildings
Will be the general storehouse, 1OOX452
feet; power house. 30x160 feet and the
iron storehouse, 109x200 feet in size.
The construction throughout will be Of
concrete and steel. the former being for
the walls and foundations and the latter
1OE supports ana roof construction. Al
ditional foundation is furnished by piling
of which over 5000 50-foot sticks have 50
far been driven by the Contractors. The
walls will be of extreme thickness, in
oroer to take care of the heavy machin-
cry which some of them will carry.
With the issuance of these permits the
value of building improvements in St.
Paul for March will be a record breaker.
The department is now considerably
ahead of March year ago. and the pros
poets are that it will be doubled num-
Der of times.

HEROES OF GREEN ISLE.
DAN IAWLER DELIVERS ELOQUENT
ADDRESS AT CRETIN HALL.

Hon. Daniel Lawler delivered the ad-
dress at the St. Patriek's day celebration
held in Cretin hall last night. He spoke
upon the patriots of ireland. and the du-
ties of Irish people in America. He said
that it was needless to mention the
heroes or Ireland, as they were known
by every person in the audience, and
were honored for what they had done to
relieve the sufferings of their fellow cit
liens. "Such men as Parnell Emmett,
and score of others might be men
toned" said Mr. LAWYER. ARE among
the most honored men who have lived
and are entitled to this honor because
they abandoned the bright prospects
which laid before them to espouse the
cause of suffering humanity"
Il would be the last man" continued
Mr.. LAWYER, ito say or do anything to
stir up international animosity, and I
pray that Ireland will get her rights
without resorting to war. The time is
coming, and is not far distant, when
Lone rule will win and the Irish people
will govern themselves. The rigid rule
of England cannot last in the present
age Of liberalism and reform. Her ex-
ample in every country where she has
had power teaches us to believe that we
are not to expect any great reform with
out struggling to obtain it. England
viii learn some time that her peril is
Irelard's opportunity
Mr.. LAWYERS remarks were received
with applause by the large crowd that
was present. and everyone appeared to
agree with him in his ideas concerning
Irish independence. 49,

City Clerk Jensen's Office was a scene
of activity yesterday, the occasion being
the distribution of the ballot boxes to the
primary judges and the distribution of
supplies for the many polling places.
By o'clock in the afternoon every
judge appointed had been given the bali
lot box for his particular precinct, and
had given the necessary receipt for It's

made weighty and bulky bundle, and
the grumbling in consequence was con-

me polling places today will open at s
o'clock and will be kept open until 8
o'clock this evening, when the taking of
the count will commence. The prevailing
opinion yesterday was that the vote to-
day would be light, though there are
many who think the novelty of the coca
sion will draw many to the polls.
Because of the disputes relative to the
primary law contests are expected ~ be
numerous, but many of the judges have
agreed among themselves to solve these
on the basis of the law as it pertained
to registration only. Coed judgment will

law. he said, had never been printed. and
in the cOdifcatiOn of the laws two sec
tons of it had been dropped out by rea-
son OF mistaken belief that they had
already been executed. and therefore
We're supertluous. In one of these sec
tlons was contained a clause giving the
county commissioners, and not the CITY
council, the power to approve aImshouse
and hospital contracts.
Mr.. LangfOrd said that he had been in
spIred to search for the imprinted law bv
reason Of the fact that the authority Of
his board depended upon It, and in the
records Of the State Historical society be

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE WILL
ACT IN THE MATTER.

Nal Espy offered the following reso-
luton at the Chamber of Commerce
meeting yesterday:
whereas, There is insufficient space on

commodate the increasing demands for

therefore, be it
Resolved, That the committee on mu-
nicipai affairs is hereby requested to in
vestigate and report what action the
Chamber of Commerce should recommend
to the public authorities at this time
to Increase the levee.
The resolution was referred 20 the COM
mittee on municipal affairs Maj. Espy,
in explanation of the resolution, stated
that many boatmen had complained
about the insufficient levee space and
wharf facilities. Last year, although
practically all the space between Jackson
and Sibley streets and a considerable
distance on both sides beyond was
available for the unloading of steamers,
yet the boats were very much crowd
ed. This year two new freight and pas-
senger steamers, the Cyclone and the
irwin City, are to be added to the num-

SNAKES IN THE MILK.
INSPECTOR HAUGDAHL'S RECENT
TRIP DEVELOPED SOME START
LING DISCOVERIES
SOME FROGS AND ToADs ALSO
Farmers who Inadvertently Left
Cans Under Pumps Were Sur
Prised at the Catches

Inspector Sam Haugdahl of the dairy
and food department, has just returned
from a tour of inspection through several
of the western and southern counties of
the state He has the distinction of being
the champion buttermaker of the
world and has therefore a high regard
for the dairymen of the state as a pro-
fession, but on this last trip he came
upon some things which made him, as
worthy dairyman, exceedingly wrathy,
all the more so because of his limited au-
thority to deal with the parties involved
Mr.. Haugdahl discovered several in
stances where enterprising dairymen in
advertently got their milk cans under the
pump spout previous to shipping their
milk supply to their patrons. These men
were of course summary dealt with.
But water was not the only thing, nor
the worst thing which Mr.. Haugdahl
found in milk
1t has always been known that snakes
were found in whisky, but few people
have ever believed that they could be
found in milk. Mr.. HaugdahI however
found not only snakes, but toads and
frogs in some cans Of milk in certain

in question kept their milk in ''spring
house., and were evidently not careful
to keep it properly protected. They were
showed them what he had found in the
milk, and were inclined to think he was
conjuring with them. In a supply Of
milk brought into the station for ship
ping, at another town, Mr. Haugdahl
found a baby's shoe. At New Paynes-
Vile he prosecuted and convicted two
dairymen whose barns were found to be
filthy and unfit for cattle, and whose
milk cans were 50 unclean as to be a
menace to health In every case where
offenders We're arrested they We're con-
Victed and fined
Mr.. Haugdahl found several cases
where incompetent men We're in charge
Of the creameries,. but under the present
law it is impossible for the dairy and
food department to do anything but urge
the creamery men to employ only expe-
rienced help. The inspectors all recon-
mend the enactment of a law licensing
creamery operators, under a system Of
examinations for competency. South Da-
k0ta now mas such a law, and it is kelly
that the next state legislature will be
asked to pass a similar law.
1t must not be supposed. however
that these conditions are common" says
Mr.. Haugdahl. ~t'For the most part our
creameries and our diaries are in first
class condition, clean and healthy, ana

ATTORNEY GENERALS RULINGS
On PRIMARY ELECTION LAW.

Attorney General Douglas had a con-
sultation yesterday afternoon with AS
-specting the Inquiries addressed On the
construction to be placed upon certain
sections of the primary election law.
Here is the gist of his answers:
To be entitled to vote at the primary
election man must have lived in the
precinct thirty days.
No one can be judge-at the primary
election who has not been a resident Of
the precinct thirty days.
A man who is under twenty-one years
of age cannot register. This applies, re-
CARELESS Of the circumstance that he will
be twenty-one before the election on
May 6.
Names cannot be inserted on the ball
lot, neither can candidates on one ticket
be substituted for those on another. A
voter can only vote for candidates who
are all Republicans or all Democrats, as
the case may be, and cannot vote a
mixed ticket.
