men along the line, also desiring to help
on worthy cause. The work is sup

PYTHIANS TO MEET
Their State Grand Lodge Assemblies
at St. Paul Tomorrow.

Minnesota Knights Of Pythias will hold
their thirtyfrst grand lodge meeting in
ST. Paul Tomorrow and Wednesday.
The important matters before the lodge,
according>to the annual message of Grand
Chancellor James Robertson are the
status of the endowment rank and the
old matter of getting rid ofsuch membmers
as are engaged in the liquor business or
are professional gamblers. There are
sixty such on the membership rolls Of
twenty-eight lodges, says Mr.. Robertson,
and he suggests that the grand lodge be
given authority to deal directly with these
cases. He also recommends that the en-
dowment rank be separated as much as
possible from the regular business of the
knights of Pythias.
The report of the grand keeper of the
records shows that the membership has in
creased by 1872 during the year and that
three new lodges have been established.
The expenditures have been $S,079.80, and
receipts SS,5O2.77, and the balance to the
credit Of the grand lodge Is $4,456.57, or
an increase over last year Of over $780,
The grand lodge meetings will be held
at Elks' hall. but the officers and dele
gates will have headquarters at the
Windsor hotel
The twelfth annual session Of the grand
temple, Rathbone Sisters, will be held in
Ct. Paul at the same time at Bowlby hall.

Ia WYER' RESIDUAL ROLE.
Became His Clients Partner and
Was Attorney for the
Partnership.
when He Won the Case He De-
manded Fee and Shared
Profits.

/, A new idea of the law of partnership
has been conceived by a well known Min
neapolis lawyer. His unique conception
is certainly profitable for members Of the
legal profession but hardly so for their
clients.
Some months ago lady we'll along in
years had grounds for a damage action
against the Great Northern Railway COM
pany. She went to the attorney abovesre-
ferred to and laid her case before him.
He agreed to take the case for half the
verdict, or in his words he would be-
come a partner Of his client The case
was tried and verdict Of $4,000 returned
The lawyer secured a judgment and sum-
moned his client to his office.
II have secured a verdict for you and g.
Judgment for $1,000 he explained upon
her arrival.
That's good. We will have a thousand
dollars apiece
"Oh no. replied the attorney. LET us
look at this matter in a business way
We are partners in this transaction, are
we not?''
Certainly"
"Well, then, the first thing to do is to
pay our lawyer for winning our case. His
charges are $500. Deducting this
amount, there remains $1,70O to be divided
between US.
The woman gasped for breath, but did
not attempt to dispute the attorney She
left the office a sadder and a wiser
woman.

CHARGES ARE PREFERRED
Delegation Protests to the Governor
Against Conduct Of Ramsey
County Boiler Inspector.

r. H. johnson Of st. Paul, state boiler
inspector for Ramsey county, is having
serious trouble with the owners Of boilers,
who charge that he is arbitrary and quar-
elsome to an annoying degree. A dele
cation waited on Governor van SAINT this
morning, and after they had stated nu-
merous causes of complaint, the governor
asked them to put their charges in writ
ing. They said they would do so. The
delegation included Thomas Davies,
Howard F. Ware, Eantee & Ella, M J..
O'Neil and J. M. Donovan, heating con-
tractors; James MAXWELL Of the Stan
dard Laundry company, George R. Nor
ton, heating engineer; James McGeary,
engineer of the st. Paul federal building;
Alex Cathcart and &C. Kratz, managers
Of property; w. H. Pendergast and J. H.
Weed. They claim that johnson has
made the requirements too stiff for low
pressure boilers, and that he is constant
ly going out Of his way to stir up trouble.
He has sent a complaint to Washington
against McGeary because he inspects
boilers for a casualty company in addi-
ton to his work as engineer of the fed
eral building. Yesterday he stopped a
Minneapolis automobilist at Fort Shell
ing for running without number, and
was called down by the Hennepin county
inspector. uG

SAYS HE rs CHAMPION
South Dakota Man Protests Codv's
High Diving Claims,

George w. Clarke. the famous high
diver who is now living in Madison, S. D.,
but who is known locally for his achieve
ments on the old ball park back of the
West Hotel, protests the claim made by a
negro named Cody to the worlds record
for high jumping. In letter to Colonel
Sam Ellis, who brought him to Minneapo-
lis in 1898, at which time he dropped from
tower lao feet in height, Clarke says:
II see that a paper out here states that
a negro named Cody claims the worlds
record for jumping because he dropped off
the Brooklyn bridge, lat feet. This is not
the record.
ION Sept. 7, 1897, jumped from the
Halstead street lift bridge into the Chi
cago river, a distance of 165 feet You
will find the record in the New York Clip
per and in the Chicago Inter-Ocean and
Tribune of Sept. 7 or 8. Those pa
had representatives there.
II am now living in Madison, S. D., and
have the Manila and Woonsocket railroad

made three drops in three years. but am
still in the business if the money is Of

BOTTLE IN WAITING
Beer Now on Ice May Get a Mid
way Blind Pig Into
Trouble.
It Is in Hands of the Hostiles and
May Be Taken Into
Court.

A bottle of beer hangs over the head Of
certain midway blind pig operator. If
it gets into court with the evidence that
can be had to go with it the proprietor
will doubtless be called upon to contribute
literally to the ST. Paul police court. 1t
may and it may not get into court. It is
being kept on ice pending a decision.
A good woman of the midwoy district,
who wishes devoutly that blind pigs and
all places for the sale of liquor could be
forever removed from the midway, or
from the whole earth, for that matter,
was informed some time ago that the
pigs had been driven out Of business.
She was, therefore, somewhat surprised
when informed by a young man Of her
acquaintance that certain pig was still
thriving and grunting its satisfaction with
conditions. She thought the young man
must be mistaken, and expresser her
doubt. The young man did not like to
be doubted in that fashion, and when
passing the place in question day or two
later dropped i'm and got a bottle of
drink that he Is sure is not ''soft.'' On
the contrary he is condent it will give
the proper reaction under test for al
cohol
There are reasons, however which make
it desirable not to prosecute, at least at
present, tho the bottle may be opened in
court later.

EMMET'S MEMORY
Irishmen of the Two Cities Pay
Tribute to the Irish
Patriot. ..z

In memory Of the Irish patriot, Robert
Emmet, some 1000 Irishmen of Mime
apolis assembled in the Lyceum theater
yesterday afternoon and listened to stir
ring addresses by William II. Donahue of
Minneapolis Daniel w. Lawler of ST. Paul
and, Mayor Haynes, and to a musical pro-
gram of Irish airs.
''The only way to make an Englishman
reason Is to get him on the end of a
bayonet,' said Mr.. Donahue, who regret
ted that Ireland did not strike for her
freedom when the Boer had so weakened
English power Mr.. Donahue paid high
tribute to the Irishman's character. -
"There are no anarchists and few So
cialists among Them he said: land they
are generally aw-abiding and peaceable
citizens The speaker, however, could
not sufficiently condemn those Irishmen
who enlisted in the British army and
fought for the maintenance Of English
power.
Mr.. LAWYERS address was a greater ora
torical effort, but did not apply so directly
to the subject of Robert Emmett as it did
to the results Of his life and death Mr.
Lawler was optimistic and expressed the
belief that the passage Of the Wyndham
land bill was the precursor Of an Irish
republic. "
The St. Paul Celebration.
An equal number Of Irishmen assem-
bled in the Grand opera house, st. Paul,
and listened to Judge w. l.. Kelly, Senator
Moses E. Clapp, Governor Van SAINT and
County Attorney Thomas R. Kane.
A characteristic sentiment expressed
was that by Judge Kelly when he said:
by conviction Protestant in his life
and his death, Robert Emmett has been
| raised to the position Of one Of the I'M
| canonized saints by the Catholic people
of Ireland. Born to the proud privilege
of belonging to the ruling class when
class distinctions meant every thing in life,
he devoted his young manhood and finally
his life to the uplifting of his down-trod-
den Catholic countrymen. And while he
failed in his immediate object and paid
for his failure on scaffold after a trial
which, by it's cruelty and injustice
shocked the civilized world, Robert En-
met has not died in vain. The very hang
man who held up the bloody head and
proclaimed the death of a traitor to Eng
/ land proclaimed liberty to the world and
sounded the death note Of English inhu-
mainly to Ireland '

WARDS WANT LIMIT
Six of Thirteen Will Ask for Maxi
mum Levy.

Six of the thirteen wards in the city
will ask the board of tax levy for the
maximum levy Of 2.5 mills for ward pur
poses. This year only two of the wards
had the limit. Most Of the other wards
ask for an increase, however, even in the
face Of a bigger assessed valuation. .
According to the figures reported to
City Controller Joshua Rogers by the aid
ermen, which he will present to the board
of tax levy next Tuesday, the wards ask
for levies of from 1.15 mills to ESQ and
many would ask for even more if they
could get it. The revenues thus derived
will be used in grading, improving and
cleaning the streets. The outside wards
having many ungraded streets have more
work to do than the down town wards,
so it is quite natural that the first, sew
enth, ninth, tenth, twelfth and thirteenth
wards should ask for the limit, while the
fourth and the eighth can get along with
the revenues from lis mills.

SHORTAGE OF SEED CORN
A Serious Famine in This Commod.
ity Threatens Northwestern
Corn Raisers.

A seed corn famine threatens the farm
ers of Minnesota and other northwestern
states. Owing to the cold, wet season,
northwestern corn has not matured well
and inasmuch as the best seed for this dis
trict should come from varieties already
acclimated, the source of next season S
supply is problematical. The situation is
somewhat further complicated by the fact
that many fields were planted this year
with poor seed, which, even if it germin-
ated and matured grain, furnishes seed
of a low quality.
Approaching the conditions, W. M.
Hays and c. P. Bull of the university
experiment station have issued a bulletin
calling attention to the above facts and
urging corn raisers to take prompt and
thoro precautions in the selection and
preparation Of seed corn for next year. S
