ESPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE

The Elks carnival, which had a
reign Of two weeks in Minneapolis,
closed on the evening of the 18th.
The attendance was large aud the
receipts left handsome profit after
all expenses were paid. The Elks
are contemplating the holding of a
carnival every year, conducted on
lines similar to the one just held,
and a canvass of the business men
of Minneapolis has been made to as
certain their opinions and wishes in
the matter. All the hotel and res
taurant men and most of the mer-
chants appeared to be favorable to
the scheme, and willing to give it
financial encouragement because it
stimulates trade.
1t is true that carnival attractions
draw many people who patronize the
hotels and naturally do more or less
trading at the stores. At the same
time this increased trade is nothing
more nor less than a commercial
spasm which, like all spasms, is fol-
lowed by reaction. Business men
about the state come to the cities
about once in so often anyway, and
when they come during a carnival
or state fair the hotels and stores
simply get in a bunch of the money
which they would otherwise get, in
the common course of events, at
some other time. People spend
about SO much money during the
year for merchandise, and it seems
better that it be spent in the usual,
everyday way than in spurts, with
dull times between. This comment
only applies to the commercial as
pect.

CITY LETTER

Concerning the Carnival-ElkS Make Lots
of Money, but No One Knows what
they Do With it-Litigation to Follow
Accident to Steel Arch Bridge Visit
of German AgriculturiStS to the Twin
Cities and Agricultural School.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1903-06-24

all that will be done until the courts,
by the usual tedious process of law,
shall decide who is the responsible
party. The same decree will also
decide who must pay the unfortu-
nate steam car passenger for the
injuries he is nursing. There is a
feeling of insecurity in the contem-
plation of a bridge, over which is
passing an unending stream of peo-
pie, cars and conveyances, with no
one who will admit or assume any
responsibility for the condition or
maintenance of that portion which
spans the extensive system of tracks
leading out of the union railway
station.
The visit to the twin cities and
the state agricultural college recent
ly made by party Of forty-two Ger
man agriculturists, was something
of a compliment to the state. 1t is
not strictly true, as the papers have
intimated, that these men were &C
tual wielders of the hoe and the
plouw, or that their sole mission
here was to procure pointers con-
corning scientific methods in agri-
culture. They were all graduates
of some high-up educational institu
ton in their native country, who
have chosen agriculture in some
form as a business. Some Of them
are large landowners. and others
are scientists or teachers in German
schools of agriculture.
There is in Germany club num-
bering over 1000 members, all OF
whom are engaged in agricultural
pursuits in some capacity. Every
summer the members of this club
divide themselves into parties and
take outings. This year one of the
parties came to America and crossed
the continent. They had heard OF
the twin cities and the agricultural
school, and arranged their program
to stop off. They spoke in the high
est terms of the great preparations
this state has made to teach agricul-
ture, and were delighted with their
visit to the state experimental farm.
From here they went to Milwaukee
and visited a man by the name of
Pabst, who is a noted man ufacturer
of a popular German remedy.
Speaking of the state school of
agriculture, that institution has been
in the throes of internal dissension
for more than a year. Four men,
bers of the faculty were recently
dismissed, but people who are neu-
trail think the board of regents was
too indiscriminate in this matter,
and that an injustice has been done
some who were dismissed. So far
as management goes, there probably
was never an institution in the state
which needed an investigation and
a shaking up more than this one.
The methods taught are all right,
and most of the faculty are able in
their respective lines. The benefits
of the school are great, but they
might be much greater under i'm
proved management. W. NJ. T.

An accident happened in Mime
apolis last week which was remark
able, first. in the fact that no lives
were lost in consequence, and sec
ond, in the amountof litigation which
will ensue. A portion of the ap-
proach to the steel arch bridge over
the Mississippi fell in, leaving a
hole about 25x50 feet in dimensions.
The place is exactly opposite the
union railroad station, and directly
over the Great Northern tracks.
There is probably not more than a
half minute at a time between Z
o clock in the morning and in the
evening, when there is not team
or street car passing over that
place, yet at the time of the cave in
no one happened to be Immediately
on the spot. A loaded street car
had just passed over it and the
springing of the bridge caused the
car to rise and sink like a boat on
the waves. A Great Northern train
was passing underneath, and pass
enger standing on a platform was
seriously, though not fatally injured
and the end of the rear car was
smashed into slivers. This was the
only damage.
There at once arose the very i'm
portant question as to whom it be-
longed to repair the damage and
this question also involves the re-
sponsibilities to the G.. N. passenger.
The railroad company and the city
of Minneapolis each claimed that the
other was responsible for the main
tenance of the approach to the
bridge, and both stubbornly refused
to make the repairs. In the mean
time the street car company went to
work with all the men that could be
used to advantage to prop .up the
tracks With timbers, andrthe cars
were running over the hole in less
than forty-eight hours. But that is

1t is also strange that the elks as
a fraternity are obliged to hold car
nivals, fairs. vaudeville shows and
the like, in order to raise money.
No other order has to do this, and
the Elks are not paupers even if
they, or the most of them, are warm
sports. They have never made
themselves conspicuous by their do
nations to charity, or by deeds
through which the public received
any benefit. But they keep on rak-
ing the money by methods which
ought to prove valuable tip to
presidents of denominational col
leges which exist by contributions.
What do they do with all this mon
ey? The carnival attractions were
first-class, and we'll worth all it
cost to see them. But that does not
answer the above question.

case OF Parleti 4 Skipper VS.. David N.

ground that bill OF SI.75z. made by
Campbell's wife had been rejected.
The defendants exceptions to the sale
were sustained and the trustee was or
dered TO put the properly mp for sale
again. The case attracted considerable
local intesest and involves the question
as to whether the trustee at sale can
act as agent for the party who is returned
by him as the purchaser. PaTlett &

that a better price had been offered.
Neither the trustee nor the auctioneer
