Some minor repairs about the park

among some OF the local fans i'm IA
vor of following the example of the
larger cities in providing a row of
boxes in front of the grand stand for
the further accommodation of spec

the benefit of a discussion at the

LOST HIS FAMILY
How DR.. Roberts Smoke Caused a
Domestic Separation.


DR.. George F. Roberts loyalty to the
goddess Nicotina got him into trouble re-
Gently; and his friends are still "joshing"
him, about his experience. The doctor,
his wife and child were on their way home
from Chicago when the medico was seized
with an irresistible desire to smoke.
The night was hot and it was late, SO he
walked forward to the buffet car without
taking the trouble to don either coat or
vest. Arrived in the car he sat down and
watched the smoke wreaths curl upward
from the end of his cigar. Then came a
rude awakening. ~ T..
The door of: the car flew open and the
leather-lunged brakeman announced the
arrival of the train at Webster City. Now
the doctor don't remember any Webster
City on the line, and as he had been over
the route many times he got up and went
out to Investigate. Then he discovered
that the coach containing the remainder
of the Roberts family, together with a
part Of his own wearing apparel, had dis
appeared. He was in q strange town, IN
an unfamiliar state, without coat, vest,
hat or funds, his wallet being in his coat
pocket; and the coat-several miles away.
The doctor muttered a remarke scarcely
complimentary to his own intelligence.
Then he left the train, telegraphed for
money, and went to hotel to await its
arrival. When the money arrived the
doctor sailed forth to ready-made
clothing establishment; arTayed himself
in a suit Of clothes, and took the next
train for home, where his wife had pre-
ceded him.

JUMP FOR THE JUDGE TOKEN FROM GA. R.
Lovely's Father Wanted Him to
Give an Exhibition.
A PROUD PARENTS ENCowIUM
. Varied and Manly Ac-
r compIishments.

Judge, he's another Fitzsimmons, that
boy. I'm pretty good, but he can handle
me just like you'd handle child. He'll
get drunk and you'll never know it, and
he'll be just like telegraph pole. He
can jump thirteen feet Backwards; and
it's just like having a mule kick you, if
he ever hits you. There amt any one in
Minneapolis can handle him. Why, he'll
jump backwards over your table, here,
and never disturb book. I'll call him
in and tell him to DO it, just for: fun
Judge Pond protested politely; but his
visitor con ntinued:ot e'na. 80, .r.
Hes promised to behave himself, and
he'll do it. He always keeps his word.
If he promises to lick man, he'll lick
him sure" 49,.
The case under consideration was that
of the state against Joseph G. Lovely, in
dicted by the grand jury for the theft OF
$3.50 from sleeping man in a SALOON.
Lovely is mechanic and the father of
four children. He had never been in
trouble BEFORE, and claimed to have been
drunk when he stole the money. The
court read him a severe lecture, and he
was then permitted to plead guilty to
charge of petty larceny, for which he was
fined $25. He left, promising to go to
work as soon as he could get job, and
to stop drinking. e
His father, who accompanied him,
promised on his part to report to the
judge, the first time his son slipped.
Then. he delivered the encomium on his
sons athletic skill, already printed.

Officers Reelected.

Reports submitted at the annual meet
ing of the Soldiers home trustees o-day

a total expense of $15,939S2. The surgeon
reported that more room was needed for

A Movement to Present Loyal Ala
bamans a Flag.
THE GIFT WOULD BE MOST TIMELY
Commander Torrance Makes the Sug.
gestion After Hearing From
an Alabama Veteran.

The First Alabama United States cav
airy, the only loyal white regiment fur
nished by that state during the rebellion,
has written to Commander in Chief Tor
rance of the G.. A. r., through Comrade
H. M. Lambert, postmaster at Sheridan,
Ala, letter likely to excite a fraternat
return from many civil war veterans
throughout the northwest.
Captain Mortimer r. Flint of Minneapo-
lis was member of the First Alabama.
81 have no DOUBT says General Tor
rance, that some readers of this letter
will be pleased to make small contri-
button towards the purchase Of hand
some flag, which will be sent to these
brave men in time for their reunion.
Contributions can be forwarded to, or left
with Captain Orton S. Clark, assistant
adjutant general of the department of
Minnesota, Lumber Exchange building,
Minneapolis"
The letter reads:
1t is with some degree OF embarrassment
that I write you, but I must take lstle
of your time to present to you the Firs.
Alabama United States cavalry.
1t required great deal Of courage and
tested the nerve of loyal men in the south
to stand by the flag and the union and to
enlist in the United States army was to for
sake all except honor and love Of country.
Our only consolation then was, and now is,
tlaL we! OlQ TlSuC duu IudC CduSS lll-
umphed and still prospers.
We have a reunion each year, but the nem-
bers Of our regiment are SO scattered that
we cannot organize SO as to communicate
with the Grand Army of the Republic, and
thus it happens that those who are unfriendly
to us say that we are not recognized by the
Grand Army of the Republic because we
fought against our own homes, and weak
men are sometimes made to believe these
things. Our last reunion was on the day that
President Mckinley was buried, and as secre-
tary / take this method of introducing the
regiment to the Grand Army of the Republic,
through the commander-in-chief, and kindly
ask that you write comforting letter that
I may read at our next reunion, which will
be held at Lynn, Alabama, on the 25th and
Goth of September next, to cheer the old vet
Grams on their way and to show that their
services are recognized and that they are not
lost sight Of If the members of the Grand
Army of the Republic saw fit to present to
the regiment a flag or drum, they would al
most take new life and hope, and 1 trust you
will not consider this in the nature Of beg
ging letter, for my only desire is to encour-
age my old comrades and to urge them to
new activity and to show to those who crti.
cize us that we are still remembered by those
who love the old flag.
Hoping have not worried you and thai
I may be honored with reply, I beg to re-
main your comrade and well-wisher,

UNHAPPY HUBBIEs, THEY
Two Men Charge Their Wives With
Inhuman Trea tment.

Two Men Charge Their Wives With
AInhuman Trea tment.
Because their wives treated them cruel
ly, and on several occasions drove them
out of doors, Charles Lund and w. W.
Manning have applied to the courts for
relief. AS proof that women as we'll
as men sometimes adopt the life strenu-
Gus, their complaints, filed this morning,
make interesting reading. Lund says
that his wife, Laura, drove him out OF
their home in July of last year, and re-
fused to let him return until fall. Then
she relented, and like the cat, he came
back. It was not for long, however, for
on April II she assaulted him and again
drove him away, this time for good He
asks the court to grant him an absolute
divorce. ~ r =. .......
Manning's story is like unto Lund's
He, too, swears he was driven from home,
his wife subjecting him to ''cruel and in
human treatments and applying to him
names too vile to be set forth in legal
document So he, also, asks for dt-
yorce. = - 49, T.
In third case, begun this morning,
the wife is the plaintiff. She alleges that
her husband, William Wellendorf, whom
she. has supported since they were mar
ried in 1895, first sold their household
goods for drink and money with which to
gamble, and then deserted her. She says,
too, that he had legal wife living at the
time of their marriage and she conse-
quently asks that the ceremony be an
Inulled.

measures is being made by the Hopkins
doctors, who are personally antagonistic
to Health Officer C. A. Burnes. In sew
eral cases virulent fever had been dag
nOsed as scarletena. Proper precautions
not having been taken, the disease had
become epidemic.
DR.. P. NJ Hail. health commissioner of
Minneapolis said this afternoon that he
had agreed to give the state department
all the assistance in his power in COM
batting the epidemic at Hopkins.
1t was reported from Hopkins this af-
ternoon that the village authorities had
commenced to enforce strict quarantine
If such was the case, Dr. Bracken said
that the state board of health would not
enforce an arbitrary quarantine with
armed guards.

DEAN NOT A CANDIDATE

Something May Depend Upon His
Sense Of Duty, However.
w. j. Dean, who was Independent and
prohibition candidate for mayor two years
ago, states to-day that he is not candi-
date this year for any Office on any ticket.
Two years ago he laid aside personal pref
erences and sacrificed business interests
to enter an active campaign because he
considered it his duty. Although it Is be-
Heved that Mr.. Deans sense of duty is as
acute as it was two years ago, he asserts
that he desires no office and that he does
not purpose to run for the Office of mayor
on the prohibition or any other ticket

ADJUSTMENTS
THE HASWELLS IN "ROMEO AND
- $eJuLIET', Is

1t is somewhat unusual for summer stock
company, in the west at any rate, to at
tempt Shakspere; yet if one never aimed at
the moon, the man who lives there would
need no life insurance; and lin aiming high
the management Of the Percy Haswell COM
pany has made no mistake. '-.- j.
Last night this company presented, at the
Metropolitan, production of Romeo and
Juliet" notable in many respect and wholly
satisfactory to the immense audience assem-
bled to witness it. : Seldom has stock pro-
duction been attended with more conspicuous
success; never has Shaksperean play been
better presented here by repertory company
And this love tragedy of the Montagues and
Capulets is by no means the least exacting
of the bards work. g~~
Scenically the production was not up to
the, standard set by travelling stars-that
could scarcely have been expected or de-
manded under the circumstances-but from
the standpoint Of artistic acting Nand appre-
'ciative reading of the masters lines, last
nights endeavo: is worthy of. high COM
mendation. Miss Haswells s Juliet is evident
ly not hap-hazard creation. It bears the
hallmark Of intelligent saudy and painstakirg
effort. Effective alike in the girlish love-
tanter Of the earlier scenes and in the later
tragic passages of the dana, where Juliet has
become woman, with woman's capacity
for love and suffering, Miss Haswell's work
is truly remarkable in a player of her stage
experience. III --ss.-
Nor does Frank Gimore's Romeo suffer by
comparison. Mr. Gilmore read the lines al
| lotted to him with admirable effect and with
feeling. In his last scene of all he worked
| himself into a frenzy that evoked sa1vos Of
| APPLAUSE from an audience, many of whom
had come to cavil but remained to praise
Frederick G. Lewis is deserving of prais,

as the old nurse.
