GOVERNMENT READY
TO PAY FOR LAND
Money for Land to Be Added to
Smelling Reservation
Sent West

There is a purse of $122,1SS.7O in
the hands of Maj. w. w. Robinson, as
sistant quartermaster of the depart
ment of the Dakotas, awaiting claim
ants.
Owners of 500 acres to be attached
to the Fort Smelling military reserva-
ton will receive the money as soon as
satisfactory evidence of their owner
ship is presented to Maj. Robinson.
c. c: Houpt, United States district
attorney for Minnesota, who has had
charge for the government of the con-
demnation proceedings that have
been in progress for some months to
obtain title to land desired for a rife
range for the fort, was yesterday ad-
Vlsed by the war department that it
had received and accepted the certifi-
cation of the attorney general. The
war department notified Mr.. Houpt
that draft for the amounts awarded
to the owners of the land had been
placed in the hands of Maj. Robinson,
ana that all that remains to be done is
to satisfy the clerk of the United
States district court that the parties
entitled to the money are the real
owners of the property.
The decree in the condemnation pro-
ceedlngs was entered by Judge Will
lam Lochren some time ago. The land
for the most part lies south of the
present Fort Smelling military reser-
walton, and the new rifle range will be
along the Minnesota river. Some fifty
persons are owners of the different
tracts that go to make up the 500 acres
TO be added to the reservation. Two
farmers, Nicholas Kohn and Peter
Huber, will receive the largest slice of
the big fund to be divided among the
property owners Their Joint share
will amount to $24,5OO.
1t is expected to close up the whole
matter. including the transfer of the
money and the passing of the deeds
of conveyance, within the next few

MAN OF PRAYER SENT
TO INSANE HOSPITAL
Michael Moresynski Is Ordered Com
mitted by Probate Court

Michael Moresynski, aged 53 years,
was ordered committed to the insane
hospital at Rochester yesterday after
he had been adjudged insane by a
jury of physicians. Moresynski's par
ticular mania is in the excessive use of
prayer. He was in the county Jail a
little while ago. He prayed incessant-
ly, and the deputies thought that he
must be insane. He talked so freely
and logically TO the jury that he was
freed.
Immediately he fell into the meshes
of the law again, and this time he goes
to Rochester. When Moresynski ap-
peared in the probate courtroom he
carried hat trimmed in several
shades of green, while from his breast
hung numerous medals collected at
various fairs and eXpoSitions, but
fondly believed by him to be sacred
trusts and pledges imposed upon him.

PAYING ORDINANCES
Joint Committee of Council and
Good Roads Association Rec.
ommend Matchmaking

The joint committee of the common
council, in convention with the Good
Roads association, recommended the
following improvements at meeting
held in the council chamber yester-
day:

limits. one mile, $4,000.

Randolph streets, four miles. $4,000.
Point Douglas road. from Hastings
avenue for five miles, $1,000.
Minnehaha street, from Seventh
street to the city limits. $4,000.
Aid. Buschmann insisted on the ne
cessity for the macadamizing of Ar
cade street as proposed. but he also
wished to be understood as favoring
the improvement just so far as the
money would go and no farther. Aid.
Buschmann wished to go on record as
favoring the building of good roads,
but he also made il clear that he
would not vote for the expenditure of
any money for road building unless il
was intended that the road would be
put in good shape as far as the i'm
provement went.
Opposes Temporary Paving
He felt sure that the large amounts
of money spent for bettering roads
temporarily by a layer of gravel or
sand was wasted, and that the funds
of the city should be expended for
building good streets as far as possible
and no farther
IF we can build only one block on a
street" said Aid. Buschmann, ''let us
build ii so that ii will last for years.
III we can construct macadamiZed
street, as per every request here pre-
sented, let us do it, but L for one will
refuse to vote for the expenditure of
any money for temporarily repairing
streets at large expense when the same
work will have to be done over again
next year"
President Gustav Scholle. president
of the Good Roads association, spoke
favorably regarding all the improve
ments contemplated.
Favorable to Streets
City Engineer Rundlett. Aid. Mori-
arty and Lynch and Assemblyman
Yoerg insisted upon favorable reports
upon propositions affecting their sec
tions of the city.
The results of the recommendations
made yesterday will become apparent
through preliminary orders which will
be introduced at the next meetings Of
the different bodies of the council.
The total amount to be expended in
these improvements will exceed by
about $4,000 the $4,000 appropriation.
but the members of the council feel
that the macadamiZing should be done
at once, and provisions will be made
for taking care OF the deficit.
