SOCIAL MINNEAPOLIS.
A Lively Week in the Social
Circles of the Flour
City.
The Senior Promenade at the
University Coliseum a
Big 1 Success.
Prof. Tousley's Reception on
the Following 1 Evening
Largely Attended.
Numerous Weddings and
Other Society Events of
the Past Week.
Although the heavy rains of the past
week have interfered with many of the
outdoor festivities there have been sev
eral quite enjoyable indoor affairs, the
cool weather contributing somewhat to
their pleasure. One of the most nota
ble features in society circles has been
the large number of weddings that have
taken place, and the numerous an
nouncmeuts of engagements prom
ises more of the same kind
for the near future. Doubtlessly
the Minneapolis youth is beginning to
resent the reputation given him in the
past of not being a marrying man, and
is hastening to make amends for his
coldness. There is nothing that pro
vides so much pleasure for young so
ciety as the chance to officiate in some
capacity in an affair of the kind, and,
if for no other reason, the young men
and misses should hasten to pair off,
and give society a chance to spread it
self.
The numerous institutions of learning
have rather had the call with society
daring the past week, and their festivi
ties have not only drawn large crowds
from among the upper stratum of so
ciety, but have formed food for gossip
and no end of small talk. The senior
promenade at the Coliseum on Wednes
day evening was a colossal affair and
well worthy a place in the society an
nals of ihe past year. Youth and beauty
was there in abundance, and the young
people launched themselves into the
mazes of the dance with a vim which
showed that old Terpsichore was as
much a favorite as ever. It was a sight
for one versed in the details of costum
ing to watch each fair dancer as she
whirled past, for the dresses were ele
gant and varied. Flowers were worn
in abundance, and the immense hall
with it- gathering of 3,000 people was a
pretty sight, and showed in what appre
ciation Minnesota's pet seat of learning
is held by her people.
The reception by Prof. Northrop on
the following evening was an enjoyable
affair, but was more closely confined to
university circles. Many of the young
graduates made it an occasion for tak
ing leave of the faculty and their
friends, and surely no parting could
have been made at a more fitting time,
the festive scene being one that might
long linger as a bright spot in the stu
dents' memory of by-gone college days.

however, and the affair will take place
on the evening of June SO, when elab
orate preparations will be made for the

DANZ AT THE LAKE,
The Favorite Orchestra to
Play at Minnetoka Beach
This Summer.
The Sunday Symphony Con
certs of Last Winter to
Be Continued.
"The Mascot" at the Harris
Theater Beginning- To-
Night.
Katie Putnam at the Bijou
—Musical Sharps and
Flats.
When the series of symphony concerts
by the Dauz orchestra at Harmonia
hall closed there was no little regret
expressed' that they could not be con
tinued, but the approach of warm
weather made this impracticable. An
effort was made by a number of admir
ers of the orchestra to secure an out
door location where the concerts could
be continued, but there did not seem to
be any suited to the class of patrons
that have been attracted. Through the
enterprise of D. C. Miller, manager at
Hotel Lafayette, however, the pleasure
of listening to the best of music ren
dered by this superb organization is to
be afforded during the summer months.
He has engaeed twenty pieces to give
afternoon and evening concerts during
the week at Minnetonka Beach. On
Sunday the orchestra is to be increased
to thirty pieces, when grand concerts
will be given similar to those which
Prof. Danz has maintained at Harmonia
hall, at Minneapolis, and the Harris
theater, St. Paul, during the past win
ter. Prot. Frank Danz Jr. will person
ally conduct the orchestra, and among
his soloists will be Emil Straka and
Fred Will, the violinists. The hotel
opens next Saturday evening with a
grand ball, and announcement concern
ing the time and arrangements for the
concerts will be made later.
HARRIS THEATER.
Few operas of the past ten years have
been presented which have made the
lasting hit that "The Mascot" has. Both
from the popularity of its music and its
possibilities for fun it has been a prom
inent opera in almost every repertoire,
and will probably continue so for some
tune to come. The resources of the
Bennett-Moulton company at the Har
ris theater will be liberally drawn
upon this week to make the opera
a success, and for that reason Frank
Deshon has been assigned the leading
comedy role, "Prince Lorenzo; Mr.
Clark, who was the count in "The Bo
hemian Girl," will be the "Pippo;"
MissDiard. "Bettina;" Miss Dressier,
"Fiametta;" the rest of the cast includ
ing Mr. Amsden, Mr. Drew and others.
An Amazonian march will be a feature
of the performance for which also en
tirely new costumes have been pur
chased.
"i he Mascot" will be first given to
nidit and will run for one week, inclut -
ing the regular matinees.
BIJOU OPERA HOUSE.
Comment-hie to-night at this play
house-, and for the entire week, will be
a very pleasing eomerly-drania, entitled
'|Erma the Elf," with that talented
little lady ana favorite soubrette star,
Katie Putman, in the title role.
This wonderful little woman enjoys,
the distinction of having played one of
the longest seasons ever attempted by
any star.in a protracted tour of seventy
two weeks. (She traveled 45.000 miles,
visiting the larger cities of this country,
and embracing Australia and the
Hawaiian islands, and throughout the
entire trip the star was received with
open arms, while the play received
the best of commendation from both
press and public. It is said of her play
that it possesses all the elements that
make a play popular. It is from the
pen of C. T. Dazey, and he has made
use of all the dramatic elements in the
construction of his piece, ranging from
farce-comedy to sensational drama,
while preserving the soubrette quality
of the play throughout. There are
some distinctly drawn characters in the
piece, and that of Ernia is somewhat
unique, and is a quite interesting type
of the bright young girl, who is naive,
affectionate, uncouth, but always a
match for others, and always superior
to circumstances.
SHARPS AND FLATS.
On Tuesday evening Miss Gertrude
Catly was tendered a benefit at Dyer's

ment with an extra vocal selection.

Chopin, Iteitiecke, Moszkowski ami
Weber were among composers repre
sented in the programme.
The eighth annual concert Riven by

BOUND FOR STIL.L. WATER.
Jim Fairbanks, the 800 Gang
Tough, Held for Trial.
Jim Fairbanks, alias Smith, the notor
ious young tough, who, with another
member of the "800 Gang" named
Henry Nelson, stolea. bolt of cloth from
A. F. Lance's tailor store, on North
Washington avenue, on Friday night,
was arraigned before Judge Emery in
the municipal court yesterday, on the
charge of grand larceny. He waived an
examination and was committed to the
county jail to await the action
of the grand jury. There is but
little doubt that Fairbanks, will
be sent to Stillwater for a term
of years. Later in the day the detect
ives succeeded in arresting Nelson, and
recovering the stolen property. He
asked for an examination, and was
committed, in default of $200 bail, for a
hearing to-morrow. Eobeit Smith and
John Howard, two tramp thieves, who
were run in by Detectives Doyle and
Howard, were sent to the workhouse
for ninety days each. The ease of Jo
sephitie Gunson, who is charged with
selling liquor without a license, was
continued until to-morrow, Mrs. Gun
son being released upon her personal
recognizance. Sprgeant Kirkham had
Mary Niver before the court* on the
charge of being a common prostitute.
Mary had served several terms in the
workhouse but claimed to have re
formed, and as there was no direct evi
dence that she had been plying her
trade she was discharged. Ed. Gotwalt
was fined $25 for fast driving. It was
charged that he ran into a wagon on
Central avenue on Friday afternoon
and broke it. The eight drunks ar
raigned before Judge Emery received
the usual sentences.
ACE P. ABELIj AND OTHERS.
Elwin, the Cigar Man, Says They
Have Tried to "Do" Him.
Ace P. Abell seems destined to get
into more trouble, this time through
James Elwin, the cigar man. Ehvin
is also after I. Vincent, C. E. Braune
and P. M. Hansel. He has secured an
injunction to restrain these persons
from disposing of 5,000 cigars, worth
875, which Hansel took from him to sat
isfy a judgment for $21.59. Elwin
claims that the four mentioned men
entered into a conspiracy to defraud
him. He says that he appeared before
Justice Abell May 22 to answer to a
complaint drawn by Vincent, for Han
sel, ajid was discharged, but that judg
ment for the $21.59 was entered against
him secretly, and then executed when
the time for payment had expired.
Elwin also claims that Branie, wlio ap
peared as an attorney in the case, *vas
never licensed to practice law.
Eaiamiel Academy.
Minneapolis is to have a new col
legiate institute. At a meeting at
Augustana church it was decided to
take action toward the establishing of
Emanual academy. The intention is to
make it a preparatory school for all col
leges, and especially Gustavus Adolphus
college at St. Peter. It is to be strictly
a Lutheran school, but pupils of any
denomination may attend. The build
ing will be centrally located, although
tlie site has not yet been decided upon.
Prof. F. W. Lonegren, recently of Lund
andiUpsala universities, will be the
president.

suffering public awaits an answer.
Miss Fannie Wachs is a Minneapolis
vocalist possessing a soprano voice that
is rather thin in quality, but which has
been trained to a degree which enables
her to execute difficult music with an
ease and expression that has won for
her considerable admiration. She is
very ambitious, has studied hard and is
certainly entitled to a great deal of
credit. At the same time the following
notice of Miss Wachs that appeared in
an advertisement in a Ravenna. 0.,
paper, heralding her appearance at a
church concert, will cause even her
friends and warmest admirers to sinije:
• * • She will be supported" by Miss
Fannie Wachs, an accomplished singer
of renown— a graduate ot a musical con
servatory at Berlin— having repeatedly
sang before royal audiences, and de
lighted the crowned heads of Europe by
her artistic renditions.
Crowned heads is good !
The unfortunate circumstances at
tending the appearance of Miss Clara
Louise Thompson as the hero in the
"Knights of Tyburn." have created
quite a discussion in regard to the treat
ment generally received by aspirants
for dramatic honors from theatrical
managers, whose aim, it is claimed, is
only to fleece the embryo star in the
shortest possible order, thus depriving
the stage of many a "bright light" that,
under favorable circumstances, might
have lived an ornament to the pro
fession. It is a conceded fact that there
are two sides to a story, and no pros
pective "star" ever sighed for a
capable manager, more than man
agers sigh for a capable ''star."
The truth is, the novice, if he or she can
obtain the necessary "backing," begin
by unconsciously offering a premium on
hypocrisy and deceit. They must be
flattered and nursed. The honest man
ager refuses to do this, and so they part,
or rathßr they never meet, for experi
ence tells him the task is useless, as his
methods will stand no chance against
the manager who handles human nature
as he finds it. For instance, no reputa
ble manager with a grain of sense would
have recommended or • allowed
Miss Thompson to appear in
such a character as Jack Shep
pard. He would have explained
that while years ago the play had
a certain draught,"ln the Old Bowery,"
the times and literature have changed,
and to the young people of to-day the
character is almost unknown. In its
day it was produced in all versions and
under all circumstances, and even then,
few but trained actresses had the neces
sary experience and ability to properly
represent the dash, depravity and low
cunning, as well as the physical agility,
of the renowned London thief. Years
ago when the play was becoming a back
number Miss Loita thought it not un
worthy : her attention, and a version
known as "Old London" was produced.
It could not, however, "turn backward
time in its flight," for all interest in the
subject had tied. Since the!) various
managers, still hoping against hope,
and remembering the day when Fanny
Herring in Jack Sheppard • commanded
an overflowing treasury, have attempted
its revival in spectacular style, notably
Messrs, Jarrett and Palmer of "Black
Crook" fame. The "Old Original Life
and Death of Jack Sheppard from the
Cradle to the Grave" was revived. "The
Storm on the Thames," "The Fire in
the Mint," "Jack's Death on Tyburn
Hill" were triumphs of scenic effects.
To add to the success Jennie
Yeomans was engaged for the part
of Jack, when in spite of the best man
agerial tact, the influence of money, and
the star's then great popularity, the
piece was a complete and admitted fail
ure, and was withdrawn after the third
night. What manager, under these cir
cumstances, would have advised Miss
Thompson to select such a play? It is
nothing against the lady to say, that in
whatever "direction her ability may lie,*
it certainly does not in such parts as
Jack Sheppard. Her ; education, her
home life, all her surroundings and as
sociations have debarred her from even
a conception of such a character. These
are hard facts, and although it has taken
Miss Thompson a few weeks of her
time, and her friend a few thousand
dollars to make the discovery, it may be
as the lady says: "My experience has
been dear, but, after all, it may have
been cheap at the price."

LAUREL AVENUE BRIDGE.
The Council Committee Opens.
Bids for the Work. ;■
The committee on roads and bridges
of the city council yesterday opened
tne bids for the erection of the Laurel
avenue bridge across the tracks of ■ the;
Great Northern and St. Louis railroad
tracks, but the building of the bridge
is by no means a certainty. When the
interested property owners petitioned
the council for the bridge they prom
ised to put up $15,000 bonus if the city
would erect the bridge. As Bryn Mawr
was very much interested iii the move
ment, the other property owners have
held back expecting the people who are
represented by Anderson & Douglas to
put up the whole amount. This the
Bryn Mawr people refuse to do, and
unless the . other parties are willing to
do their share in raising the money, it
is very probable that the bridge will not
be built. There were nine bids for the
iron work, as follows:
Milwaukee Bridge & Iron company.. 535.370
Canton.(Ohio) Bridge company ..... 38.000
Shiffler Bridge company, Pittsburgh 4O.«»(>i>
Chicago Bridge & Icon company .. 35,518
Keystone Bridge company, Pittsbnrg 43,600
King Bridge & Iron Manufacturing
company 43,000
Wisconsin Bridge company, Wau
wautoso, Wis.. .... 39.257
Smith Bridge company, Toledo, O. 42, l-> •
Fair, Williams & Co 33.1K).)
For the stone work, the bids were:
E. F. Comstock. $<>.263 00
Minnesota Stone company 7.300 00
Charles Stone, St Paul 8,1 72
King <fc Tobin's bid was $11 per yard
for Mankato and $12 for Kettle river, no
bid tor granite and 20 cents for piling,
and $2:2 for lumber 1,000 feet and SI per
yard for excavation. Assuming the
price of granite masonry to be the same
as that of E. F. Comstock, the aggregate
would be $0,286.
The bids for the substructure of the
Fifteenth avenue southeast bridge were
also opened. Ring & Tobin. were the
lowest bidders at &\OSO. E. F. Coin
stock was the lowest on the grading at
16 cents a yard for 15,000 yards. The
bids will be reported to the council at
the meeting on Friday next.
DISTRICT COURT BRIEFS.
The condemnation proceedings te se
cure land for a dam at Miimctonku,
Mills, beiian by the county commission
ers for Sue improvement q| Minnctouka,
were dropped, at least lor the present.
The law on that matter, which was
passed by the last legislature, does not
state that the lands were wanted for a
public purpose, and on that account tbfl
county attorney is convinced that the
law would not hold water.
Judge Young is holding court in
Wright county, and did not appear at
the court house yesterday, although the
attorneys waited for him, consequently
the crossings matter went over another
week. It is believed, however, that the
compromise agreement lias been signed
by all parties concerned, and that tha
approval of the court alum* is lacking.
William Hunter's motion for a new
trial was argued and submitted yester
day. Hunter is one of Adamson's
minions, who was convicted of stealing
Fred Jaehnke's team.
The final accounts of George Bern
stein, assignee of George J. Jacoby,wh<>
failed about four years ago, with lia
bilities of $4,000, have been allowed.
The estate will pay a dividend of about
14 per cent.
Judge Smith has ordered judgment
for the plaintiff in the old case of Mary
liarrigan against John Koche and tho
unknown heirs of John Koche, an action
to quiet title to an East Minneapolis lot.
The jury which had to decide the
action brought by the Irish-American
bank against John Ludlum, or the New
York Pie company, yesterday returned
a verdict for the plaintiff for the full
amount, fL,G06.16.
Elizabeth Hiederman lias asked for an
injunction to restrain John Suels from
digging up the earth and cutting down
Bliaae trees on land which she claims to
own.
