paratus at the opening of the carnival
Monday night. Programmes of the line
of march and the various positions of
the companies were furnished every
engine house in the city, and for the
next two days the men will be engaged
in familiarizing themselves with the
details.
Fraternal day is to be one of the big
events and in the parade which is
scheduled nearly every uniformed body
in the city has announced its intention
of participating. The Knights of Py-
thias have been informed that on that
day three companies of the
uniformed rank in Minneapolis will
take part. Special chartered cars will
bring them to st. Paul.
Last night a meeting of the COM
nittee on parades and music was held
at carnival headquarters and the line
of march for the several parades dis
cusSed. Some of the paradeS will be
so large that great precautions will
have to be taken in order not to inter
fere with street car traffic, and the
discussion last night was along this
line. On Manufacturers day many
floats will be in line. Chairman Frank
Baer has been assured that nearly
every wholesale house in st. Paul will
be represented.
Including officers and committee
nearly 25O persons are in the ST. Paul
Carnival association, and yesterday a
call was issued for a meeting of all of
them at the headquarters tonight. The
meeting is for conference purposes and
to outline to the various committees
their work during the two weeks Of the

PROTESTS COME
FROM WEST SEVENTH
Board Hears Objections on
Costly Paving Assessment,
but Makes No Change.

1t was ticklish job the members Of
the board of public works had yester-
day afternoon-the handling of about
200 West Seventh street property own
ers, but they accomplished the task re-
markedly we'll
The occasion was the hearing on the
completion of the assessment for the
paving of West Seventh street, from
Ramsey to Tuscarora streets, and the
cost, hitting as it does small properties
of class not the most valuable in the
city, called for a display of diplomacy
that taxed the ingenuity of the board.
In order to ease the burden on the
property abutting the street about
$4,000 of the $4,000 which the entire
job costs was spread beyond the street,
and this brought forth a few objec-
lions, but the cost in each instance
about So lot-was so small that the
protests as a rule were not vigorous.
Not few of the crowd were women
and many of the protests filed came
from them. The tax of $3.50 a front
foot for the paving of the street was
a figure they deemed exorbitant, and
the board was kept busy explaining.
According to the assessment, the to-
tai cost to the property owners for the
paving Of the street is $93,873.57, but
this has been reduced some by the
city's appropriation of 10000 and &c.
VVO SeCuIeu Wy SpIeduIIiS TIE tSSeSS-
ment. The cost to the property abut-
ting the street is $3.50 a front foot
While there was some grumbling, a
failure of the occasion was the general
acceptance of the boards levy in the
matter of the cost. One individual
thought the numerous triangles with
which the street is burdened should be
cared for out of the money appropriate
ed by the city, but he was practically
alone in the contention
The assessment was ratified by the
board, and. after the usual publica-
ton, will be sent to the city treasurer
for collection. In respect to cost, the
paving of West Seventh street was the
most expensive the board has ATTEMPT
ed in years, and the expectation OF
some heavy protests was natural

SOLDIERS DESERT TO
WORK IN THE FIELDS
They Tire of the Monotony of Life at
Fort Smelling.

The golden wheat field of Kansas
and the West, begging for hands for
the harvest, are more fascinating to
Uncle Sans boys in blue at Fort SMELL
ing than guard duty ;.
Last month twenty-five enlisted men
deserted, one company alone reporting
ten absentees.
One. of the Fort Smelling officers, in
discussing the matter with T h e
G o b yesterday, said the men do not
seem dissatisfied, with the treatment
they receive. In most instances the
deserters are men whohave seen active
service. To such men garrison duty is
a slow and monotonous existence and
holds out no attractions.
The demands for men in the harvest
fields and the high wages offered are a
big drawing card to disconnected SOL
diers, and all the deserters of the past
month have headed for the West.
Once in the fields, it is a difficult
matter to locate Them.

AGENT Of MARcONI
DESCRIBES GROWTH
OF W|REl[SSSYSIEM
H. w. Beauciefk Delivers inter-
esting Address al the Com
merclaI Club on the New Te-
Iegraphy and Its Uses.

An interesting address was deHFereu
at the Commercial club yesterday art
ernoon on the Marconi system of wire
less telegraphy by H. ". Beauclerk,
of Munroe & Munroe. financial agents
for the Marcopi company.
Mr.. Beauclerk. said that perhaps the
simplest way to explain wireless tel
egraphy was by taking as an illustra-
ton stone ~or pebble dropping into
smooth water The stone would Gre
ate ripple, the bigger the stone the
bigger the ripple. So with wireless
telegraphy, an electric spark which is
sent UP wires hanging from pole 230
feet high disturbs the ether Of the air
in just such manner as the stone dis
turbS the waters of the pool. and the
larger the spark the more air will be
vibrated. While the vibrations of the
water are slow, however. those of the
air travel at the rate of $4,000 miles
second. 1t takes but one horse
power engine to trasmit the messages
| Chicago, but one of fifty horse
power is required to send message
across the ocean.
Mr.. Beauclerk said that the system
was SO rapidly coming into use that II
would be impossible to estimate to
what extent it would grow in few
years or, as Marconi and others are
constantly improving on the invention.
what radical changes will be effected
by that time.
Mr.. Marconi is now on his way to
this country and it is announced that
he has recently found a means of do
ing away with the necessity for using
the tall masts that have heretofore
been one of the most expensive items
in connection with installing new sta
lions.
Nineteen transatlantic steamboats,
are now equipped with the Marconi
system. Mr. Beauclerk said. and the
English and Italian governments have
adopted it. Already communication
is had between England and Italy and
Canada, and the Italian government is
fitting up station in Brazil. A sta
ton is being fitted up in Massachu-
sets and there already is one at Baby
Ion, L. I. AT the Babylon station the
operators are trained and at the pres
ent time, Mr.. Beauclerk stated. the
company is suffering from dearth of
men. A telegraph operator can easily
learn the system in two or three
weeks.
There has been considerable talk Of
station being installed 1atG Duluth;
principally on account of the shipping
at that place. and if it should abel iin+
stalled. there is no doubt that Gconpec-l
tons will be made with ST. tRauEJ A
local railroad company is considering
plans for installing stations On its*ow
account at st. Paul and Chicago. - 8

VICTIMS OF POISON
NOT OUT OF DANGER
Mrs. Heinz and Daughter Still
i'm Critical Condition--Oth-
erS viii Recover.

The condition of the Heinl family,
suffering from ptomaine poisoning, re-
manned practically the same yester
day though John Heinl is thought to
be out of danger. He had recovered
sufficiently yesterday to be about at
his home, $50 Webster street. and at
his place of business, 918 West Sew
enth street Mrs. Heinl and her daugh-
ter Gertrude, seventeen years old, are
still in a grave condition. The cendi-
ton of the other three children is such
that no serious consequences are an
ticipated.
Mrs. Heinl and Gertrude Heinl are
under the care of a physician, and it
is thought that they will survive. Ow-
ing to the effects of the poison, they
suffer greatly, and are not able to sleep
without the aid of opiates.
A quantity of the pork which it is
supposed contained the germs respon-
-sible for the poisoning of the family
was turned over to the bacteriologist
of the health department by Meat In
spector Jensen yesterday. The pork
was subjected to a chemical analysis,
the results of which will not be known
before noon today.

1.-THE damage to the crops in the
Kaw valley from the floods was very
doomed as a result. Now, when it is
seen that there have been excellent
crops in some of the new potato rails

have been exhausted. The floods will
have no aBpfeciable effect on the late

states and Kansas always gets its late

Several carloads of apples have al
ready arrived in the city and the
quality so far has been very good for
this time Of the year. Those varieties

SUES TO RECOVER CASH &
PAID FOR LAND IN 1881
r. J. Montague Complains That Rail
road Company Could Not Give fTitIe.

r. J. Montague, CrookstonI man,
yesterday commenced action in the dis
trict court to recover $1,000, which he
alleges he paid to the ST. Paul. Mime
apolis & Manitoba railway company
on a land contract in 1881. He says
the contract was never completed and
he now sues to recover the amount
paid by him twenty-five years ago.
The suit was started on the last day
possible, as the statute of limitations
began to run against Montague July
%, 1897, and the six years expired last
night.
The land purchased by the plaintiff
was 100 acres in Polk county, which
was part of a swamp land grant to the
railroad. For the past TWENTY-FIVE
years the right of the railroad COM
pany to deed the land has been ques-
toned, and as it is expected that the
railroad company will not be able to
make a lawful transfer of the prop
erty, Montague sues to recover the
purchase price paid by him in 1881.
During the time the land has been in
dispute man named Kelly has Sc
cured homestead upon it, and the
legality of his claim is now before the
secretary of the interior.

WANTS MATTER OF
$4,000 CUT FROM
It's ASSESSMENT.
yea =
American Linseed Company
Objects to Arbitrary VaIua-
ton on Its Plant Saloon
Valuation Causes Trouble.

M. S. Grover, representing the Amer
lean Iinseed company, whose st. Paul
plant is located at S38 lHamden avenue,
appeared before the board of equal1za-
ton yesterday and complained that the
assessment of $4,000 returned against
the company was too large. Mr.. Grow
er asked that the assessment be re-
duced to S21,329, contending that the
assessment had been made arbitrarily.
1t was explained that the company in
Minneapolis was assessed on it's flax
at the rate Of 81 cents per buShel, but
they were willing to have the flax at
the ST. Paul plant valued at % cents.
Assessor Conley explained that the
assessment of the plant had been made
arbitrarily for the reason that the COM
pany, at the time of the assessment
was made, could not make the proper
returns. The arbitrary assessment was
made with the understanding that if
the company thought it too high the
board of equalization could be appeal
ed to. The application was referred to
the committee on manufacturers and
wholesalers.
Another question which is puzzling
the members aof the board of equaliza-
ton is the; assessment of saloon fix
lures. In almost every saloon in the
city the ssaloonkeepers contend that
the fixtures are owned by some brew
cry, and That the assessment should be
made against the brewery. For this
reason the; Brewers assessments We're
raised in 'a9number of instances.
Joseph Zwiek, representing the Val
Blatz Brewing company. complained to
the board. that his company had been
assessed altogether too high, the valua-
ton having been raised to $1,000.
why, we have ten times as large y
plant in Minneapolis and are assessed
for but $4,000" said Mr.. Zwick. This
assessment ise altogether too high"
1--WE don't. take: Minneapolis as
criterion in making our assessments"
replied Assessor Conley. THE way
they do things in Minneapolis has
nothing to do with our affairs"
The application was finally referred
to the committee on hotels and saloons,
to be reported upon later.
But few persons appeared before the
board yesterday, and those were at
tended to quickly. AS "a result of the
dearth of applications the board was
in session for almost an hour with
nothing to do, resolution adopted by
the members making it necessary for
the; board to remain in session between
the hours Of 10 and II, whether there
Is anything to do or not.
