MAKE THE CITY ATTRACTIVE

Here are some possible reasons why
metropolitan prices for real estate do
not prevail in Minneapolis to the ex-
tent that realty dealers would like:
In the fall leaves are raked into
piles and burned in the streets, con-
trary to law, in the outer districts;
and in the brick or asphalt cutters,
contrary to good sense, down town.
This happens regularly every fall, SO
far down Nicollet as Tenth street at
least.
Every morning the early workers
ment are compelled to tack" ali the
way down town to avoid the sidewalk
sweepers. Cleanliness is said to be
cOm1nendable, but it would entail
small cost upon the stores, which are
the worst offenders with their long
street fronts, to have the work done
before travel begins. It is detrimental
to the health to have rugs and carpets
from stores and hotels, on Nicollet
especially, beaten in ones face, but
this must be endured if one has to use
the streets between and 9 a. m.
Streets in some Of the wards are
swept assiduously every once in a
while evenings, with sweeper brushes
SO worn out that the results are barely
in evidence. Brick pavements such
as lie on upper Nicollet and Western
avenues have a thick layer of dirt on
one side the summer thru. They are
said to be rarely clean save following
a heavy rain storm. At crossings
where the adjoining unpaved streets
are lower than the grade Of the paved
street it is necessary for pedestrians
to go way round at each crossing for
days. after rain storms to avoid the
mud. In other wards the sweepers
clean in a straight line from curb to
curb on intersecting streets, avoiding
the six feet or more which serves as
cross walks on either side. This would
do for small towns, but for metrop-
oils should not at all.
Next to the ~despicable condition OF
the sidewalks in winter, unavoidable
because Of the lack Of esprit du corps
among the citizens and Of penalty
is the bad condition in certain places
where every rain brings a wash down
In numerous places, such as spots or
Nicollet, which is used heavily or
Oak Grove, and elsewhere, pedestrians
have been compelled to tramp al
summer thru heaps Of sand washed
down from the neighboring yards OF
alleys. The patience of the people is
| remarkable. Policemen on the beats
are very willing to tell where relief

the promising halfback, is still out on

In the scrimmage of Tuesday the first
really good burst of speed was dis

TENS OF THOUSANDS PRESENT.
Brilliant Scene on the Great Plain
Outside Of Oolhi.

Delhi, India. Jan. 2.-Tens of thou
sands OF people from the city OF Delhi
and from villages far and near began
gathering at daybreak on the great
plain outside the city. There they
waited patiently for the supreme an
nouncement of the durbar, that King
Edward was emperor of India. Soon
the great plain was filed with crowd
Ing masses of people and the brightly
colo1ed clothing of the vast thrOng
covered the space with gorgeous hues-
The attention of all was fixed upon the
white amphitheatcr in the center of the
pam where the annOuncem ent was to-
be made. The amphitheater was
adorned with gilded domes and sur
rounded by batteries, squadrons and
battalions of the Indian army.
The arrival at the amphitheater of
the viceroy of India, Lord Curzon of
Kcdleston, and other dignitaries, and
the princes was one of the brilliant
episodes OF the day. The princes were
clad in silks 3n' :5Orned with jewels
and their hOrs carriages were
brilliant with 4ppines of gold.
The whole eremony was favored
with brilliant sunshine.
After Lord Curzons arrival at the
amphitheater a brief reception to the
princes and chiefs was held. Then,
in impressive tones, he delivered a
speech and read the message from
King Edward. In his address the vice
roy announced the coronation of the
king; he extolled the loyal Indian peo-
pie and prophesied prosperity for the
Indian emperor. ie said also that it
had been decided not to exact interest
for three years on all loans made or
guaranteed by the government of In
dla to the native states in connection
with the recent famine. The viceroy
announced also the abolition of the In
dian staff corps. which has long been
an army sinecure.

AFTER OIL LANDS.
Exciting Time Promised in Uintah
County, Wyo.

Evanston. Wyo., Jan. 1.-The coming
of the new year promises to bring to
Uintah county scenes OF excitement
never before equalled in the history OF
Wyoming. Plans have been made to
gobble up every foot of Oil land which
has not been already protected by the
required assessment work. Up to a
few days ago it was believed that prac.
tically all the land would be thus pro.
tected, but closer investigation shows
that at least one-third of the oil field,
or an, area of 5000 square miles, is now
open for refiling. 1t is evident that
the intention of the original locators
is to protect tA.eir rights by the use OF
firearms II Cssvs;nn requires.
Evanston has been practically divest.
ed of its male population and nearly
all places of business have been closed
the men having stationed themselves
throughout the oil belt for the purpose
of driving their claim stakes with the
dawn of the new year. All went fully
armed with Winchesters and shOtguns
and bloodshed may follow
