.GOODN0W WAS HOST
a Notable Washington's Birthday
Dinner Held at the shang
hal Consulate.
Standing Of the Guests Shows That
Recent Attacks on Goodnow
Were Futile.

i Recent attacks on Consul General John.
;Goodnow, formerly Of Minneapolis, have
not affected in the slightest degree his
standing with his associates at Shanghai.
An excellent indication of this fact Is the
character of the guests who helped him
celebrate George Washington's birthday,
as described by the Shanghai Mercury
of Feb. "a
Among those present were the consuls
of each nationality and their wives, the
high treaty commissioners, the high Gus
toms officials and their wives, the lead
ing members of the American associa-
ton and their wives, and the heads Of
the leading American firms and wives.
Among the Chinese officials who united
in doing honor at sthe American consulate
to the memory of Washington were WI
Ting-fan former minister to the United
States; Yu Keng, former minister to
Paris; Lady and the Misses Yu Keng,
Commissioner Lu and the Taotai. n
In describing the affair, the Mercury
continues: -,t ". I'll
"The large courtroom was transformed
into a dining-room for the occasion, and
a splendid one it made, too, and Mrs.
Goodnow is to be congratulated upon the
excellent way In which she changed the
room with its usually bare walls into one
Of the prettiest apartments one would
wish to see. The ceiling and walls were
all around the lower portion Of the walls
| were immense mirrors, which gave a
splendid effect. and by gazing on these
one could not only see oneself, but every
one else present. The whole room was
Illuminated by scores of pretty Japanese
lanterns, in each Of which was an cleo
trio light, which had the effect Of making
it a regular fairy scene. Eighty five
guests sat down to dinner at eleven round
tables, ten guests being seated at each
and five dignitaries being seated at one
large table.
1.-THE town band played during the re.
past. At the conclusion of the dinner
when the gentlemen had enjoyed theil
| smoke. they Joined the ladies again ir
the spacious rooms above, when they were
entertained by Mr.. Ching Ling Foo, the
we'll Unknown Chinese conjurer, for abou
an hour and half by his most bewilder
ing, wonderful and remarka BILE tricks. Be
tween these feats. Chez Toy, a very small
Chinese girl, very much amused thu
guests. by singing ditties. and dimin
utives Chinese boy went through som'
| anna zing contortions.
| The ladies' gowns were most charm
ing. and many Of them Of great cost I
will be a long time ere those who had tn
privilege of being present will forget tn
pleasant evening afforded them by rthei
kind host and hostess, Mr.. and Mrs. eJoh

REAL NICE aSCRAP p
It Ends in q Committee Vote Favor.
ing Removals. the Garbage
Crematory.
If Council Committee Afirms Ac-
tion, an Appeal to Courts
May Be Taken.

BY. vote of to g. the council COM
mittee on health and hospitals and alder
men from the first ward yesterday recon-
mended the removal Of the crematory.
from Fifty-second avenue N to Halls
island and the award Of: the contract to
the William Brothers at $4,000. This ac-
ton was not taken until after q stormy
debate, in which the motives of both the
opponents and promoters of the crematory
removal We're questioned. and Alderman
Fred Powers had openly charged the peo-
pie who objected to the Halls island site
company which now finds the Boom island
tract too small and is anxious to increase
it's terminal facilities. Mayor Haynes and
the first ward aldermen voted no.
Alderman Powers insinuation aroused
the ire OF Alderman John Ryan of the
first ward, who wanted to. know if a di-
rect accusation was being made against
him and what was the source of the
charges. Powers rep4leu that his informa-
ton carue from a dOZan sources. E
John DeLalttre, who lives on Nicollet
island called DR.. Hall a fool. and Titus
Mareck followed this up with the asser-
ton that Alderman Chatfield wished the
and Germans. Alderman Chatfeld de-
manded an apology, and Mr.. Mareck
"axed his pardon. :" -
DR.. Hall said that he was amazed at
the change Of front Of Alderman Ryan and
others who had formerly favored the re-
moval of the crematory. He said that
the numerous violations of the health or
dnance in dumping garbage about the
city during the last year had been due to
the remote location of~;the crematory at
present. .. ......- b..
Mayor Haynes thought it would be wise
! to defer action for the present, and Alder
man Ryan moved that Consideration of the
bids be indefinitely postponed. He an
nounced that he would fight the matter tc
the bitter end.
If the council confirms the action Of the
committee this evening, it is said thai
| the courts will be asked for an injunc-
! tion, DR.. Hall counts on the support OF
fifteen aldermen, which will leave clever
opponents. :.M #.
! The removal to Halls island is being
championed by the : Minneapolis Rea
Estate and Rental boards. They contend
that if the crematory is brought that close
to the center Of the city, the present an
nual operating expenses of about $3o,0o'
will be reduced one-half. -

TO ENLARGE "A FACTORY
Ford Bros. Need Larger Quarters for
l. Their Glass Business. -, ..

Ford Bros. at 209 Washington avenue N,
contemplate a. large addition to their fac
tory. made necessary by increase Of busi-
ness. They will build a 40sS0 addition to
the building, which will make it the most
modern of stained glass factories in the
northwest. The front of the present
structure will be remodeled. The increase
in show room capacity will be large and
the manufacturing space will be extended.
The changes will cost about $4,000.
The Importance Of Minneapolis, in
stained glass manufacture is shown by the
fact that glass was shipped into twenty
three states of athe union last year and
the local artists are now making for Cath
olic churches windows which were form
erly imported.

Sized up About Right.
The Cheyenne Leader says that at
Sheridan last week a Wyoming Vet
Grams league was organized, with o.
A. Hamilton of Rock Springs as pres
ident, and p. A. Gatchell of this city
as secretary. From what is said Of
the organization, its purposes seem to
be political and its leaders claim that
it can muster over 500 votes. We re.
gard this last statement as extremely
problematical. The time was when
patriotism and politics were synony-
nous and the veterans could then be
swung solid, but now the soldiers of
the civil war are just like other peo-
pie, and have their party affiliations
on other issues than the life of the
country, which is happily il dead is
sue. They are just as faithful to the
affiliations, too, as other people, aud
we greatly doubt whether any o
siderable number of them can be
swung. Most of them are republic
cans and we do not think that any
new organization will draw many
votes from the party that We're rel
able for it before.
