Sarah Bernhardt is again furious at
the French government. which in con-

Patti wounded the tragedienne in the
way that hurts her most. The dis

concerts Tor French charities. Marie
Laurent is the only French actress to
receive the coveted ribbon. 1t was be-
slowed on her as a recognition of her

plainly meant for the woman and not

about the habits of the African pyg-

published by Colonel Harrison, who
brought from Central Africa the party
of little people now in London. The
pygmies generally marry at the age of
3 or 8, and the men buy the wives with
three or four spears and ten to fifteen
arrows, according to the market value
of the lady. They pay by installments,
and not until the last arrow is handed
over is the lover allowed to take his
bride. A mar may have as many wives
as he can afford to buy.

CARED FOR ALDERMEN
HOW PHILADELPHIA TRANSIT
COMPANY SAVED LEATHER FOR
THE FRIENDLY SOLONS.

"In the light of conversation which
I had with member of the Philadel-
phia select council during the Liberty
Bell trip to Minneapolis last summer,
/ am not surprised at the manner in
which the representatives Of that town
have defed their constituents, said
a Minneapolis alderman today. "The
Minneapolis council was showing the
town to the visitors, most Of whom were
members of the Philadelphia councils.
I had a party, as did others, and nat
urally thought they would be inter
ested in some of our municipal affairs
and tried to talk about them, compar-
ing them with their own. They were
apparently not in the least interested.
II finally cornered one member of
the select council. I first asked him
what the tax rate was in his city, but
bonded Indebtedness, but he did not
know that, and apparently did not
think he should know or care anything
about it.
"He finally asked me a few things.
He wanted to know where doc Ames
was and what the chances were for his
being mayor again. Then he wanted to
know if the local corporations were
liberal with the aldermen. What does
your streetcar company do9' he asked

WOULD HURRY UP WORK
CITIZENS OBJECT TO THE CONDI-

HENNEPIN AVENUE.

G.. A. Smith, George G. Heising, W.
H. McWhinney, John Riheldatferr and
Frank NJ. Joyce, representing the
committee of Hennepin avenue resi-
dents and the Minneapolis Automobile
club, appeared before the park board
at the meeting this afternoon to pre-
sent petition for immediate action
of some kind relative to upper Henne-
pin avenue. The board is understood to
be working along definite lines and to
have been unavoidably delayed by
weather conditions, and no criticism of
the board is intended, but the resi-
dents of upper Hennepin are said to
feel that they are facing serious mat
ter and that unless something is done
very soon repetition Of the dust
storms, OF about year ago, which made
life a burden, may be expected.
At present the street paving is in the
preparatory stage, and the LONG
stretch from just above Franklin ave

especially bad, being almost like a ses

it is feared the conditions will be ever

BAND BOYS WIN A PRIZE

Without especial preparation, and
entirely without forewarning, the Jour
nal Newsboys' band again entered the
prize-winning class at Duluth Saturday.
Also, the big band Of little men ran
into an ovation such as even this vide
ly popular juvenile musical organiza-
ton does not have in it's daily expert
ence., Professor HeintZeman and his
platoons Of proteges were the recipients
OF heart-warming reception, and dur
ing the entire day were made to feel
that they had fallen entirely among
good friends.
The members Of the Fraternal Order
Of Eagles, assembled in state conven-
tion, did the honors for the band and
constituted themselves an energetically
efficient committee on entertainment.
The Eagles parade was in line await
ing the arrival Of the Newsboys' band,
the appearance of which was the signal
for one of those orthodox tumultuous
outbursts Of applause.
The band was cheered all along the
line, and when it entered the conven.
ton hall the convention laid aside all
other business and devoted itself to
giving the kids the glad hand. In
response to the insistent applause, the
boys played selection after selection,
and at the finale were presented $50
prize.
Altogether it was q red-letter day
for the relocated journal Newsboys'
band and the boys are still talking
about it.

This evening will be especially event
full to the entertainment loving portion
OF the public because of the contempt
raneous opening of T he ournal

cert season at the Lake Harriet pa
vilion.
Since Minneapolis has been in the
city class the popularity of Lake Har,
rlet has rivaled that Of any other Of
the many recreation places in the park
system. Within the past few years the
presence of a high class band at the
Harriet pavilion has added to the sum-
mer attractlveness of the place. Dur
ing the summer months drive to Lake
Harriet thru the various parkways Of
the city's lake district has been re-
garded as the ideal way Of spending an
evening.
With the advent Of the automobile
The Journal, pursuing its policy
Of supplying the current need, settled
upon the touring car as the logical We
hicle for the sight-seers' transportation
