ARE PUSHED UP.

ITS BIENNIAL ADJUSTMENT.
Several City Officials Appear with Mod

Most Cases Secure Some Advance
The Yearly Salary Budget Is In
creased by About $4,000.

City hall salaries were boosted by.
1le council committee on salaries this
morning. Attic few of the department.
heads were heard this morning, the
result of the committee s deliberations
was to add $4,000 to the yearly salary
budget. The police department an
nounced that the position of Bertillon
system operator would be consolidated
with the police secretaryship, but the
amount thus saved was distributed on
increases in various places.
Mayor D. P. Jones believed the city
bacteriologist to be. decidedly under
paid. The regular stipend was $1,100;
the mayor thought the place should be
worth $4,000 or more. III,
City Attorney Frank Healy asked for
a general increase for his whole force
except the stenographer, reminding the
committee that, altho the work had
grown very much, the present salaries
were less than they were ten years ago.
Building Inspector James G.. Hough-
ton called attention to the discrepancy
between his salary and that of other
department heads, some Of whom were
ton. He asked for $2,5OO. His chief
clerk, he thought, should have $1,000.
substantial increases were given to
both positions, but not quite as much
as was asked. W.
The afternoon was devoted to the sal
airy lists Of the fire department, the
waterworks, city engineer and health
department. and some of the minor Of
fees, for which certain increases are
asked. 49,.

CRITICISM For !.
ST. PAUL CURRIERS'
PRECEDENT FAILED TO RULE IN
THE DRAWINGS.
Lorimer and Hastings Kinks Of Mime
apolis Pitted Against Each Other in
the Opening Play of Northwestern
Curling Association Bonspiel - Curl
ers Think They Should Have Been
Separated.

Minneapolis suffered in the drawing
for the firsY round Of play for the Du
luth jobbegs trophy at the opening of
the twelfth annual bonspiel Of the
Northwestern Curling association, at
st. Paul, this morning. The Lorimer
and Hastings Kinks, two of II the
strongest in the association, were drawn
to play against each other. It is
usually customary in such cases to
throw one of the names back in the hat
and substitute another team. This was
proposed by Manager Nettleton, but
some of the st. Paul curriers' entered
strenuous objection and the drawing was
allowed to stand. s.'. =. 4 g..
Technically the position was well tax
en-, but the curriers' in general passed
caustic comment upon the action from
the standpoint of craftsmanship. By
this drawing two of the strongest Kinks
in the ,asso eiation were pitted against
each other in the first round and the
loser was thus shut out Of the early con-
test. Ha = a.. 49, -.~.
The attendance was mot so large as
had been expected and several of the

Did Dickens Use This s,orv,

! On one occasion, when Dickens and
James Payn were swapping" stories,
relates James Macarthur In Harper'g
Weekly, Payn told the following Gu
rious Incident to the author Of "Da.
Vld Coppertield;" Payn, 1t seems, was
returning to his home one summer
night through fashionable street near
Piccadilly when sudden thunderstorm
caused him to take refuge under Dor.
tico which commanded a view Of one
Of the fashionable houses across the
street AS he stood looking into the
lighted drawing room a lady dressed in
a ball gown appeared at one of the
open bow windows, and at the same
moment man who looked ike a beg
gar ran across the street and stood un-
der the window. The lady threw out
to him her bouquet He caught 1t and,
nodding twice to the figure above him,
ran off at full speed.
Dickens was greatly interested in this
story, and the question Is asked wheth-
er he ever made use of the incident In
any Of his novels.
