10 FLOUR GITY SOCIAL A Dull Social Week in Minne apolis High Society Circles. The Excursion and Picnic Sea son Is Approaching- Rapidly . The Reception at the Hotel Waverly— Malcolm's Fes tival Benefit. Letter Carriers' Excursion to Moonlight on the Lake. Society in Minneapolis during the -past week has been undergoing some thing of a metamorphosis. Dancing parties and stuffy receptions are being given only as finales of the winter gaiety, while lawn fetes and out-of-door gatherings are becoming numerous already. The change in toilets and the adoption of brighter colors and lighter fabric** marks the advent of summer even more strongly. Those of the fair sex who can be counted in the social swim are looking forward to the season at the lakes with more than ordinary interest, and Minne tonka this summer is going to be the re sort of a larger number of belles and beaux than ever before in its history. Out of door sports this year will be patronized extensively, and the cos tumes for tennis and yachting are sim ply stunning and almost reckless in gaudiness. The masculine element is no longer content to form simply a som ber back ground to bring out forcibly the points of feminine loveliness, and the young men are to be swathed in broad silken sashes that take on the hues of the rainbow, while their neglige suits of flannel and silk are going to be remarkable as to style and decidedly audible as to tone.

About fifty couples were in attend ance, and the party was pronounced one of the social successes of the sea son.

The Health Officer and the City Clerk at Loggerheads. Health Officer Kilvington in his speech before the citizens' meeting said the city clerk's * office' was no \ place to record the births ; and deaths, and inti mated pretty strongly. that the clerk re ceived a fee for. recording them. He wanted these records to become a part of the health deportment, and said that the present city clerk ? had secured the passage of the'present law. . Yesterday • City Clerk Haney replied to Dr. Kil vington as follows: •'Every dollar received by the present 'i city clerk from the ; state for recording births and deaths, since the law went into effect that placed the city clerk's office on a salary basis and took; away his fees, has been' paid into the city treasury immediately upon its receipt, and will continue to be. Dr. Kilving ton flatters me when he, accuses the legislature of the State of Minnesota with submitting to me certain bills for amendment before their passage,; and at the same time does me a great injus tice. : Since my election as clerk*. there, has always existed the very best of feel ing between the doctor and myself, and no one was more ; surprised than iI; to " read hi 3 attack upon me and his state ment that I received the fees for record ing births and deaths, when he certain ly knew that I did not." * MRS. LINCOLN BEATEN. ??' ' Her Contest Against the State V Park a Fruitless One. * ?'•■ The suit of Vinette Lincoln against tne :. boards of "park commissioners, brought to prevent " the park : board of Minneapolis ; from seizing upon certain 1 lands at Minnehaha for the use of the state park, has at last been decided, and Mrs. Lincoln loses. The action has been In the courts about ; a- year. ; Under the provisions of the law creating a state park at Minnehaha, passed in 18S5, the park board took possession ; of 1 the laud under condemnatory proceedings. Mrs. Lincoln,* who owned the laud, contested the action : of ; the board."; Her contest was passed; on the assumption that the bill creating that park had not passed the senate. The written ; ; journal of '.' the senate -" states * that ".'. the ' bill ; : passed by a .vote of 26 ayes to 7 nays. The written journal' * states.. "The : followiug members vote aye: (Here follows the names of , the seven men who really voted nay). Instead of the names of the seven mem bers voting nay, the written journal has : . the ?* names ■;.- of : twenty-six ■* members ; voting nay. Because of this entry Mrs. Lincoln held that the bill did not pass. The printed journal of the senate, 1 how r ever, "was {introduced*: in evidence ana showed a different •* state ;of affairs.; It had the v > vote as it was "j really taken, ' twenty-six '$ aye 3 and 5 seven l nays. y In ' some states the written ; journal ; is . the record of legislative proceedings, but in' this s state,* Judge "s Lochren > holds,? the ; printed journal is the | legal record and,; consequently,' it ?is clearly 'proven that ; the Dark bill passed. The error in the written journal;; is, according to his de cision, merely a clerical error, and In no* wise ?- effects j the « legality of the? 1 act.' This decision removes one of the chief obstacles to -the : turning of : the land around Minnehaha into a park. lusichasfdlls'way; The Bijou Opera House the Only, Place Clinging" to ? the : Drama. \? , J **£ The Grand Closes Its Season and Its: Doors for Seven ■ Weeks. ..' ; .'.A«: •■:--;.-- ■■- ■ . ■■■■ . -.-- A\ : -- ■ ■ ■-■ :.-■■■ ■_•■::.■: I- jl Summer Opera at the Harris the Popular Fad With *:' : Theater-Goers.

For next week this theater will offer its patrons a mixture ?of sensation? and comedy in tho : shape of the ? border drama, "The Boy Scout," which, al though a frontier play, :in plot, scenes, and incidents, is said to be free from a superabundance of the blood arid thun der element that usually enters into the composition of plays of this class. Its ? story, is laid in the Sierras.and there are a number of sensational and startling 1 scenes and incidents, but comedy has beeu given a prominent place in the plot, : with the result that i Dan O'Reilly, *.-. in the hands of the character comedian, 'IV K. Wallace, easily becomes the central < and attractive feature of the production. Mr. Wallace is said. to be a clever Irish dialect actor, and introduces several Irish songs that are an attractive feat-: ; ure. ? :- Among other . members ."- of the company ;is W. H.
