Frank Kane is delirium tremens pris-
oner at the county Jail. He has been in

dazed and shaky. Yesterday afternoon the
Snakes" arrived.
Kane yelled all of yesterday afternoon
and last night and nobody in the Jail
slept He had to be put in the boxcar,
and there he made day and night hide
Gus. He stood at the door Of the cell
most Of the time and howled to be let
out.
This morning he got to sleep, and it
is thought he will not die now. Kane
is one of the worst cases that has been
seen in the jail for some time. He looks
like scarecrow that had lain out in the
rains for six months. Dr. Donnelly is
doctoring him and he will be kept in Jail
till he grows better or dies.

Considering the lavish expenditure OF
The national funds which is character
-stic Of the prevailing administration of
our affairs, it is not unreasonable to be-
iieve that the Frye subsidy bill which has
heen before congress for some time will
DE enacted into law in some form or
ether. 1t is true that the constituencies
oe the Middle West and Northwest have
united in denouncing any such expen-
'htures, and that the congressional rep
.esentatiyes Of those constituencies
among whom the majority are Repub
leans, have indicated that they will not
Eve their sanction to any subsidy
scheme which is based on mileage or
speed alone, or which adopts any other
basis of calculation that does not relate
TO the opening of new markets and the
extent Of merchandise moved; but the
facility with which Republicans in con
gress have in the past shown their will
mgness to be governed by the pressure
Of the executive Office or the dictation of
the leaders gives ample reason for believ-
ing that the only consideration which
will finally govern will be the one,
whether it is thought best by those in
authority to squander the public funds
in substituting a few snip owners who are
objects Of party favoritism
The Frye bill does not seem to meet the
requirements insisted on in the preceding
congress any more distinctly than Qld
the measure formerly identified with the
lane Of Senator Hanna Its provisions
for compensation for the carrying Of the
mails are unreasonably liberal. The ex-
sting rates are three times those paid
10 the British transatlantic vessels
This bill increases even those rates. The
extent OF the cargo carried or its origin
does not seem to be a consideration. and
nothing appears in the text of the bill
which plainly indicates that an emptv
vessel cannot draw its full proportion of
subsidy money. Foreign-built vessels
owned by Americans and American huiI+
vessels owned and operated by foreign
ers may alike be the beneficiaries of +ba
government liberality. There is no pro-
vision which looks as if it might have
any influence whatever in opening new
markets to American produces. No
future new lines of communication seem
to be kept in mind in the framing of the
measure; and, for aught that can be
gathered from its provisions every dol
lar Of the immense sums provided for
may be paid TO existing steamship com
panies.

PROFESSORS MUST STAY
so DECLARES PRESIDENT NORTH
ROP AND REGENT WYMAN.

The University Of Minnesota will not
lose her professors to other institutions
if the question of salaries is the only
inducement held out by other Institutions
The salaries paid are probably lower than
in other institutions of like grade, but
President NOrthrop does not think that
Minnesota will allow her professors to go
for this reason alone. He said:
The present time is not favorable for
discussion Of salaries. We are undoubt-
eddy paying smaller salaries than a num-
Der of universities of our grade but the
finances of the institution are such as not
to warrant any great advance in the line
of salaries. I am accustomed to meet
difficulties as they come and not to an
ticipate them, and I am not prepared to
take up the question Of salaries, because
there is no possibility of relief for the
present. I do not believe that our pro-
fessOrs will be permitted to leave us for
other institutions if the only reason for
their going is a difference in salary. Ger
taiEly the requirements Of each case must
be met by the board Of regents in the
best way possible. No institution can
prosper if other institutions are permit
ted to draw from it's best professors
l have no idea that Minnesota will ever
permit it to be done here.
There is no uncertain ring about the
utterances Of j. I. Wyman, member
of the board of regents, Is to the neces-
sity of fitting the salary list. Says he:
1 should regret very much to see any
of the men mentioned leave the uniVer-
sity. [ really believe that for the stand,
ing of our university it would be better
to pay large salaries than to allow other
institutions to take them away from
us. OF course, the whole question is one
of the market value of talent. In every
line of endeavOr talent brings it's price
and there is no reason why it should not
IN a state university. Such an institu-
ton cannot be built upon wind or money
alone. Now it takes money to buy tall
ent and in order to retain it in our uni
versity we will have to advance the sal
aries of some of it's best men, in my
opinion. OF course, 1 only speak for
myself.
Where is the money to come from?
Well, I think the state ought to be more
liberal with our noble institution.

FASHIONABLE AUDIENCE
SMART SET TURNS OFT TO SEE
BIG SHOW.

Row after row Of smiling faces watch
ed with breathIess interest the rising of
the curtain on last nights biggest anu
most successful effort of the st. Pau
lodge of Elks at the Metropolitan, and
when the unique picture made by the
grouping of familiar, yet strangely unfa-
miliar faces, the COlored men in 'front.'
the pretty girls just behind and the odd
Iy costumed entertainers in the rear was
completely revealed, an Outburst of APP
pIause such as the Metropolitan has sell
dom heard made the big theater ring.
1t was an outburst that testified to the
success of that opening ensemble picture.
1t testified also to the fact that one Of
the biggest audiences the Metropolitan
has ever held-in fact thet biggest audi
ence the theater could have possibly sold
was there to enjoy the feast St Pauls
cleverest entertainers had prepared for
them And certainly if those entertain
ers at thte Metropolitan last night sur
passed themselves in the cleverness,
spice and originality of the entertain
ment offered, so the audience in size, in
generous enthusiasm, in the hearuest
and most spontaneous appreciation eX-
ceeded any audience that has ever at
tended an annual entertainment.
1t was a fashionable audience, but it
was not too fashionable to throw back
its head and laugh heartily at the jokes,
to applaud with gloved hands the songs
and to listen with the closest attention
when now and then a sentimental bit
crept into the entertainment to give it
the spice of variety. The audience
seemed to be composed of parties-par-
ties that attended the show, evidently,s
for the sole purpose of enjoying them
selves, and enjoy themselves they did.
All but three of the boxes were occupied,
and this, coupled with the immense audi
ence in the theater proper gave a gala
appearance to the house. Not small
part Of last nights audience was made
up of Minneapolis Elks and their wives.
Those. noted in the boxes were:

ENGLISH IND GERMAN DISLIKE

The embittered feeling which today
exists between the German and English
peoples seems very difficult of explana-
ton, considering the closeness of the
blood relationship existing between the
representatives of the reigning families
Of Germany and England.
Outwardly the rulers of the two
countries maintain the most amicabIe re-
lations. The heads of both, being re-
spectively uncle and nephew, must. OF
course, be on really very intimate and
pleasant personal terms. While the out
ward signs of dislike are greatest among
the Germans, as between the two peo
pies, the English must be regarded as
reciprocating the feeling, even though
more serious concerns operate at Ibis
time to suppress any general public ex-
preston of dislike or resentment in Eng
land. The Germans, according TO the
cable reports, are unreserved in their ex-
pressions of dislike and hostility to their
kindred people, having within the past
day or two made their hostility plain
through petitions to the reichstag.
What is this unpleasant state of things
due to? The English and German ma
tons have been at peace for several
generations. Until the Franco-German
war, when the English showed their SYM.
pathies to lie rather with France than
