Show Considerable Feeling.
No new developments occurred in the
Megaarden case today, only. there was
just a little--more scrapping among the
attorneys than has been heretofore. 1t
Is probable that the strain of the past
week is telling on them, and they are
getting just little irritable. The state
has succeeded in introducing other bills
where Megaarden has overcharged the
county, and it is expected that there is
about fifteen II all which will be intro
duced
In the event of the state undertaking
10 get these all in, the trial is bound to
drag along for an Understandable length
OF time, as the state has no easy task
before it in getting these bills before the
jury, but they are apparently determined
to show that the sheriff Wilfully and in
entionally intended to defFaud the cow
ty. A bill which they are trying to in
troduce at the present time is one where
the superintendent of the school at Red
Wing took the children to the school him
self and paid all of the bills and the
Sheriff presented his bill to the county,
and collected the money for services per-
formed and paid for by some one else
Several times during the day it was
necessary for the judge to take hand
in the arguments that were carried on
between the attorneys where apparently
considerable feeling seemed to exist. and
their discussion would become quite
heated.

City Engineer Sublette intends to add
about twelve miles of cycle paths to the
present system during the year. There
are now about forty miles of paths with
in the city limits.
In his report to the city council Mr.
Sublette will recommend that new paths
be built on the following streets:
On Crystal Lake avenue, to connect
with the path built by the county to Os-
Seon; on Twenty-eighth street, from
Park avenue to Hennepin avenue; on
Fifteenth avenue southeast to Talmadge
avenue, and on Talmadge to Twenty-fifth
avenue; on Nineteenth avenue northeast,
from Fillmore street to the stockyards
road; on Portland street to Minnehaha

Another path is needed in North Min

path; also, one on Franklin avenue, from
Cedar avenue to the river.
The Lake street path, between Mime
haha avenue and the river will need to

to the lake to spend a day or so on ac-
count of the ,prohibitive prices that are
made by hotels at Lake resorts.
Mrs. Russell comes forward with a
proposition to give free of charge 30
acres Of ground at Linwood on the
shores at Lake Minnetonka for the erec-
ton of a summer hotel on the Mills
plan. to any one who might be Interested
enough in the scheme to go ahead with
it.
The experience with outing stations
at other points demonstrates that it
would be feasible to provide nights
lodgings in clean comfortable surround
ing for 10 cents. Plain wholesome food
could be served at corresponding prices
At these. prices many people. who have
to work in stores and shops for living
and whose salary is not very remuner-
ative, could get away from town on
Saturday and spend Sunday at the lake
for a comparatively small outlay
While retaining ownership of the land
Mrs. Russell would allow its use free
of charge.
