GREAT WESTERN SPURS
ASSEMBLY GRANTS RIGHT 10
CROSS WEST SIDE STREETS
The Omaha ROad's Refusal for Va
cation of Triangle Not Acted
UpOn-COunciImen May
Oppose 1t.

Inc assembly held a brief session last
night, but what little business it did was
full Of Importance to those whom it con-
cerned. Possibly the most important was
the granting to the Chicago Great West
ern Railway company the right to cross
a number of streets on the West side
with several spur tracks that it will
shortly lay down.
Ine streets to be incumbered are Morri-
son, Plato, East Chicago, East Indiana
East Fairfield, East Fillmore and a num-
Der of alleys. In crossing these streets,
which will be at a point below Robert
street, the company is permitted to lay
as many as three tracks if it so desires
The grant has already been passed upon
by the board of aldermen and will now
go before Mayor Smith for his signature
From the Omaha road was received a
request for the vacation Of triangular
piece Of ground near where it's West
side freight house is to be built, but i'm
mediate consideration was denied 1t was
sent to the committee on streets
When Myrtle street was vacated for
the cOmpany's benefit, this triangular
piece was mentioned and it was practical
" agreed between the company and the
committee that $500 would be a fair price
for it. For the vacating of the street
the city received $500.
As lots in that locality are now selling
at from $1,000 to $1,000 it is expected that
some Of the cOuncilmen will kick on the
price agreed on.

HAVE A GOOD TIME
MEMBERS OF JUVENILE OPFR 4
COMPANY ENJOY THEMSELVES
Little Men and Women Who Have
Dignity and Grace Mixed
With Childish
Abandon.

There is staying at the Clarendon hotel
this week the maddest, merriest group of
little cid folks that has ever visited St
Paul. They are the members Of the Pol
lard Juvenile Opera company, whose
homes are across the blue Pacific in far
away Australia.
1t is easy to see that these youngsters
are cosmopolitan in every sense of the
word. AT the hotel they carry them
selves with a strange mixture of child.
lsh abandon and manly and wOmanly
dignity. During the morning hours they
amuse themselves with their little toys
the same as other children Whenthey are
in the seclusiOn of the nursery Visitors
do not brighten them, and if they have
onlookers during the hours they are al
play, they receive them with a courtesy
and dignified grace that comes from as
ISOLATION with many people and in many
places In the afternoons they have
their hours of work and study, and they
enter into the tasks imposed upon them
with the same earnestness which they
apply to their play in the hours when
they are free to amuse themselves as
they please.
There are still some erroneous impress
sions abroad concerning this company Of
little folks The company now playing
at st. Paul is known as company No g.

No. l company, which is now playing in
Australia, and which, in all probability,
will never leave the shores of the island

mothers Of the No. 2 and companies
Under the Australian law a teacher and
quasi guardian is sent out with the little
folks, and a watchful care is given them
from the day they leave their native
soil until they return. Should the COM
pany happen to get stranded-as opera
companies sometimes do-aII the teacher
has to do is TO notify the nearest British
consul and transportation is at once for

expenses Of this teacher and guardian
are paid by the Australian government,
and she is accountable only to it.
The children are healthy and vivacious.
and seem to enjoy themselves as well as
other little folks of their ages. They are
up early, and the way they dispose of
the various articles on the bill of fare
proves that they have the good digestion
that waits upon appetite. Taken all in
all, they are 5olly fellows and they seem
to be enjoying their first visit to America
in a royal manner.

GROWTH IS IMMENSE
MINNESOTA HAS BEEN BOOMING
DURING IT'S FORTY-FOUR
YEARS OF LIFE
SOME AMAZING FIGURES
State Has Received One Hundred
and Fourteen Million Dollars
Property Valuation Has In
creased HOO Per Cent.

In less than three weeks Minnesota will
celebrate its fortyfourth birthday as a
state. Few states in the Union can point
to a greater record of progress than
Minnesota in that length of time The
executive expenses of the state that year
were about $4,000; this year they will be
$4,000. Since 1860 the population Of the
state has increased from 172.G00 to ISL, coo
lie school population has increased from
$4,000 to $500. The total receipts of the
state for 1876 were $138,O0O for this year
they will be $7,000C00 or more. In 1860
there were 725 teachers in Minnesota and
today there are 13C09. There were $50
school houses in 1860 and today there are
over 5000. The total tax collections in
1860 were a little over 600 and this
year they will be $2,C0O,000 In 1860 the
total amount for the support of state in
stitutions was $500 while today that
item is close to 100000.
In the forty years the total valuation of
state property has increased over 1409
per cent. While the population of the
state increased less than 1000 per cent in
the forty years from 1860 to 1900, the
school population increased 1000 per cent;
the state receipts increased nearly 500
per cent and the disbursements over 1000
per cent. The permanent school fund has
increased 1900 per cent in thirty five
years. Twenty-Five million dollars have
been expended for the support of state
institutions, and over $1O,OOO,OOO for the
state institution buildings.
The total receIpus Of the state since the
beginning are $1140C0O C0, and the disburse-
ments over $110,O00,C0

STILL HANGS FIRE
ASSEMBLY HAS NOT DISPOSED OF
ST. ANTHONY PARK LIGHT
FRANCHISE
WHEELER AND HAAS OPPOSE
Think City Should wait Until 1t Can
Sell Franchise Rather Than
Give Valuable One
Away.

If it can get the required number of
votes together, the assembly win this
afternoon make an effort to pass the
ordinance granting to several st. An
thony Park manufacturers franchise to
do lighting and heating business
The ordinance was to have come uD at
a meeting of the body held last evening
but owing to a number Of ab5entees and
the unWillingness OF several of those
present to vote for it, the promoters
wisely held it over.
Assemblymen Wheeler and Haas say
they will not vote for the measure. The
former thinks the city should wait until
the gas companys franchise expires, and
the city can sell a franchise for a good
price, and the latter refuses his vote
because he is Of the opinion that the
company is getting a valuable franchise
for almost nothing The franchise COW
ers the manufacturing district and Mr.
Haas %mnls it is worth considerable to
any company that desires to enter that
section Of the city.
Assemblyman Dix was among those OPP
posed to granting the franchise. but it is
understood that he has since changed his
mind, and viii give it his approval
The stand manifested by some Of the
assemblymen BODIES i'll for the Imperial
Manufacturing company, which has been
many months engaged in trying to get a
franchise for the entire city. The board
Of aldermen in both cases gave its sane
ton, but the assembly rebclled, at least
the sentiment displayed had that trend,
and the promoters decided not to press
their demands for the present at least
The meeting this afternoon Will be a spe-
CiaI one, and in addition to the consider
alton Of the lighting franchise win in
cIude action on the gasoline lighting
specifications. These specifications will
also be considered at meeting Of the
board Of aldermen to be held this even
ing.

NO MEAT ON SUNDAYS
UPTOWN BUTCHERS WILL BE
CLOSED-PRICES SOAR.


A committee Of the Retail Butchers as
sCciation for the district surrounding Uni
vtrsity avenue and Dale street, held
meeting last night and decided that Eere-
after all shops in that locality would re-
main closed Sunday. The butchers. feel
that purchases Of meat can be made Sat
urday night as well as other household
goods and they see no reason why they
should be obliged to work Sundays.
The matter Of the raise in price Of beef
pork and mutton was discussed to some
length, but no definite action was taken,
as the members of the association Will
likely work out their own salVlJiCn in
this regard. AS fOrecasted in II b
G 4 o b e some days ago the retail price Of
meats has advanced all the way from 10
to e per cent and the butchers do not see
that it will come down before midsummer,
when the heavy Western shipments be-
gin.
The raise in the price of meats IS due
to the advance in the wholesale market,
and the packers and stock buyers claim
that it is merely the result Of conditions
over which they have no control They
claim that there is scarcity of cattle on
the market, and what is to he had de-
mands higher price than usual owing to
the increased cost of feeding
Last fall when feed took jump there
was Iarge-siz1d slump in the cattle mar
ket as many were unable to hOlu their
stock and feed it through the winter
The result was that cattle were dumped
and the prices dropped. Now, according
to the buyers there is a scarcity. and
those who have stock are unwilling to
let go without well covering the extra
cost Of production brought about b. high
priced feed
The buyer for the household will ap-
preciate the situation when buying a
sirloin steak that heretofore sold for 10
cents. which viii cost Is and y cents a
pound, pOrterhOuse has gone up from 70
to p cents, round stead is quoted at 10
cents and shoulder steak at 12l2. Hind
quarters Of lamb are worth is cents to the
butcher rib roasts bring IS cents and pot
roasts from 10 to 1872 cents Other meats
have gone up in proportion, so that those
not inclined to be vegetarians viii for
some months, at least be obliged to in
crease their meat allowance

THE NEW WOMAN.
Made over by Quitting Coffee


Coffee probably wrecks a greater per-
centage of So1therners than Northern
people, for SOutherners use it more freely.
The work it does is distressing enough
in some instances; as an illustration, Miss
Sue w. Fairall, 81 n. 4th St, Richmond
Va, writes, Il was coffee drinker for
years and for about six years my health
was completely shattered. l suffered fear
fully with headaches and nervousness,
also palpitation of the heart and loss of
appetite.
My sight gradually began to fail and
finally l lost the sight of one eye alto
gether. The eye was operated upon and
the sight partially restored then | became
totally blind in the other eye
My doctor used to urge me to give up
coffee but l was willfuI and continued to
drink it until finally in a last case of Sc
we're illness the doctor insisted that
must give up the coffee, so began using
the Postum Food Coffee, and in a month
1 felt like a new creature.
1 steadily gained in health and strength
About month ago began using Grape
Nuts Breakfast Food and the effect has
been wonderful. l really feel like new
woman and have gained about twenty
five sounds.
1 am quite an elderly lady and before
using Postum and Grape-Nuts I could
not walk square without exceeding
fatigue, now I walk ten or twelve without
feeling it. Formerly in reading I could
remember but little but now my memory
holds fast what l read.
Several friends who have seen the re-
markable effects of Postum and Grape
Nuts on me have urged that 1 give the
facts to the public for the sake of suffer
ing humanity so, although l dislike pub
licity, you can publish this letter and
my name if you like"

THE CAUSE OF HIS DEATH
ATTORNEY DAVIS, FOR KACHEL's
BROTHER, WILL DEMAND IT.

c. Rachel, a brother of Anton KachaI
the patient who died at the st. Peter
hospital, interviewed the state board or
control yesterday afternoon, and asked
that an investigation be made into the
cause of the injuries his brother suffered
prior to his death.
Rachel seemed to be of the opinion that
the injuries had been inflicted at the hes
pital, but he had not a very clear idea as
to how they might have occurred or just
what he wanted.
He was advised by Chairman Leavitt
Of the board, to select the attorney or
other party he wanted to represent him
at the investigation and have him write
the board just what he desired. He was
told that the board was anxious to get
at the facts and would afford him or his
representative every facility at its dis
posaI for securing information.
He secured ex-senator c. r. Davis; Of
st. Paul to represent him in the in
vestigation. 1t has been decided to in
sist on a thorough investigation.
