They have lived here for forty-four years, and taiceii an impor tant part in the city's growth and great ness. ; -y Mrs. Robertson is the grand-daugh ter of a soldier of the Revolutionary war, and is herself a member of the Society of the Daughters of the Revolu tion. The two were married at Mount Ver non, 0., in 1814, . and have raised a worthy family of seven children. In 1852 they lost a son of two years.. This is the only shadow that has crossed the family circle. The living children are as follows: Mrs. Oscar Stephenson, who has four children. William G. Robertson, who has three children. .

After a few year's practice in Ohio he became the editor in succes sion of the Cincinnati Enquirer, Ohio Eagle and Mt. Vernon Banner, In 1844 he was appointed United States marshal for Ohio, and held four years. He was a member of the constitutional conven tion of Ohio. He was among the most prominent men of the Buckeye state when he left in IS.VJ and came to St. Paul.

Robertson was elected mayor of St. Paul in 1859, and while he held this office he was elected to the legislature. He was sheriff of Ramsey county from IS6I to 1860. Col. Robertson was a member of the board of education, and held various other positions of prominence. He was a great promoter of the state historical society and the Academy of Science. He or ganized the first grange of the Patrons of Husbandry in the United States, giv ing it an excellent library. He has for many years been a mem- ber of the National Scientific society, v Col. Robertson is 5 now eighty-two years old. but barring the effects of an injury he received, two years ago he is hale and hearty. Mrs. Robertson also enjoys good health, and it is the hope of a wide circle of friends that the hon ored couple may live to enjoy each other's society many years to come. ATTRACTIVE AND AUTISTIC. Memorial Day Window of Mann heinier Brothers. There is no nobler virtue warms the American heart than that of gratitude, but amidst the business bustle of the mercantile world business may too often neglect to pay tribute to. the deserving ones of history. Not so with Mann heimer Brothers, the merchant princes of St. Paul, for, as Decoration day draws nigh, they revere the memory of the brave men who risked their all for the preservation of the Union, by pre senting in their huge window on Sixth street a highly deeorared memoriam scene, which would cause any G. A. R. man to gaze on with satisfaction. *- ln the center of the picture is a life size figure of Columbia, with a mound before her, and above her. inscribed in violets, are the words: "'ln Memoriam— 1801 to 1565." The background is com posed of bunting and flags of the Amer ican colors deftly arranged, and in the foreground a number of rebellion reiics, as well as two cannon, all making an appropriate, attractive and artistic pict ure to feast one's eyes on. ln looking on a beautiful painting, one usually finds the artist's signature in the lower right-hand corner, it is not so in this case, but his name is H. E. Bartlett. .'. CITY PRINTING REFERRED. County Commissioners View ' a Road — Routine Matter*.

The party of Sioux Indians who are on their way to Coney Island remained in their special car at the union depot until 1 :30 yesterday afternoon, and were the objects of interest to a treat W*oMm^ .number of visitors. The ordinary per son who went through the car would hardly be noticed by the hardy sons of the plains who sat lazily around smok ing and sleeping, but when Col.

The Capitol races to occur on June 2 will be held at the state fair grounds instead of at Kittsondale, as the man ager of the Kittsondale track will not allow running races, aud running is to be one of the principal features of the afternoon programme.

And last will come the event of the day, the half-mile i running race. There are now ten en tries for this race, and one or two more expected. The race will be made from a standing start. The horses in the trotting and pacing races are to be driven by their owners. The following are the entries for the running race: Carroll Duuder and Musterara, owned by James Haines; Profate, owned by J. Casey; Nancy and Restless, owned by F. Carr; Minneapolis Boy and Spider, owned by R. McQuillan; Must Win. owned by K. Reber; unknown, owned by Arthur Gibbons. No admission fee will be charged, and a large crowd is expected to attend.

FIRE OFFICIALS FINED. - -- '■ " x ■ ; RESOLUTION ADOPTED TO IMPOSE FjNS CF A MONTH'S PAY j ■ t FOB FUT-'KI* LIKE OFFENSES. Capt. Strapp and Lieut. Chirk in the Punished Firemen— Jamas. Morrow to Publish Historical j Sketch of Fire Dapartihcnt-r- a Gibbons and Flanitfaii Given . (same Privilege— Koiuino Works. The fire board last evening impose^ a fine of sjsiii) each on Capt. J. J. Strapp 6 and Lieut. C. Glut-kin, who were suspended from duty on May 10, for entering a saloon while on duty and in " uniform. On Nov. 3, 18113. the board . passed a rule that no member of the de partment should enter a saloon while is on duty, but neglected to add any - penalty for disobeying the same. "j. '. j v Last evening, after disposing of other - business, the matter of the suspension - of the two officers was taken up and the i board went into executive session. After a discussion of half an hour, dtir which time both Strapp and Clarkin were before the . board, the members filed out of the private office and an nounced the imposition of the fine mentioned. As substitutes had been employed in the places of both men during their suspension there was some question as to whether the men or the board should pay the substitutes. It was finally decided to pay the substi tutes on the regular roll instead of hav ing the men fined pay them. ■ " Commissioner Clark then offered the following resolution, which was adopted: That hereafter when a member of the lire department is found in a saloon in uniform, except when in the line of his duty, he shall be fined oue month's pay, and, ou a repetition of the offense, he shall be discharged. yr'iy ;s James Morrow was given permission to publish a historical sketch of the fire department, he having an agreement with the relief association by the terms of which 25 per cent of the profits will be turned over to the association. C. J. Gibbons and J. F. Flannigan also asked for and were granted the same permission, agreeing to give 30 per cent of the profits to the relief asso ciation. The officers of the association will determine which proposition to ac cept. • . - The request of the Minneapolis & St. Paul Messenger company to connect their office with fire headquarters was referred to the committee ,-ou- ma chinery. ' ; . Four new fire alarm boxes were rec ommended to be put iv at the following points: Ghatsworth and Evergreeu streets, Grand ana Lexington avenues, Raymond avenue and Blake street, and Avon street and Fairmount avenue;' The boxes will cost about $500, and the council will be asked to authorize the expenditure. "':;'■ ■ '■: 'i Dr. W. H. Casserly, veterinary sur geon, and Supt. - Hughes, of the -fire alarm system, submitted the usual monthly reports. linCS ' Secretary Ware presented the pay col) for May, amounting to $14,288.39, which was approved. The pay rolls for the first six months iii 1893 amounted to $89,150.43, while for the same period in 1891 the pay -.rolls amounted to $85,943,29,' a saving of *?3,207 for the first six months of this year as compared with last year: — M'CUIDY WlsshLi NOT SIGN ; ! The Forrestal Contract for Swoop ing summit and Nina. , ..- '; Comptroller McCardy yesterday re turned to the board of public works the contract awarded to . James Forrestal for the sweeping of Summit and Nlua avenues, sin a letter -to the_;board,-£tiß comptroller calls attention to section. 27 of the code ot 1893. which provides that in the award of contracts the - board' of pubiic works shall consider the respon sibility of a bidder without any refer ence to the financial responsibility of the sureties on the bond. The.: pro visions the comptroller did not think had been complied with, or the board could not have awarded the contract. Under the circumstances, the comp troller informed the board he would not sign the contract, jy - The contract in question was awarded by the board of public works to For restal on May 7, he being the lowest of the nine bidders, and agreeing to do the work for $34.75 per week. The assembly confirmed the award May 10. and the board of aldermen did likewise May 15. The city attorney drew up the contract, and after it had been signed by the contractor, mayor and city clerk.it went to the.com ptroller for his signature, the law stating that the comptroller shall countersign all contracts. . It is understood that the objections of the comptroller as set forth in his letter to the board of public works mentioned were also brought to the attention of the city attorney. That official, how ever, did not consider the point made by the comptroller well taken in view of the fact that the board of public works had passed on the question of Forrestal's responsibility at the time the contract was awarded. The opinion from the city attorney evidently did not suit the comptroller, for he at once notified the board that he did not consider Forrestal responsi ble, and declined to sign the contract. In this connection it may be said that Comptroller McCardy signed and ap proved the four sprinkling contracts awarded to Forrestal in March last by the board of public works without any objections. The date of the approval of the sprinkling contracts was before May 1, and a friend of Forrestal was unkind enough to put ibis and that to gether, and last evening gave it out as his opiuion that there was a deal of politics in the position taken by the comptroller. y-yy. . President Gorman, of the board of public works, when asked last evening what action the board would take in the matter, said the only thing they could do was to notify Mr. Forrestal or j the decision of the. comptroller. The con tract is not a large one, the total amount which could be realized during the season being in the neighborhood of S7UO. j Assistant City Attorney Chapin, asked what would be tne outcome, said it was a matter between the contractor and tne comptroller, and the only legal step that could be taken was to have Forres tal mandamus - the comptroller and order him to show cause why the con tract should not be approved. -r rsis- 1 — _______ _ _.

The committee upon manufactures, to whom was referred a communication asking for the presence of a delegate from the chamber at the international congress on customs, legislation and the labor question, to be held at Ant werp July 10 to 21, reported that while the questions to be discussed are of im portance it is not practicable to send a delegate. L.y : _ Director Peet offered the following resolution: Resolved, That, the chamber of com merce is opposed to the proposed in come tax law, but should such a law be enacted it is the opiuiou of the chamber of commerce that '"^should be therein provided that the incomes ot life insur ance companies and associations should be exempted from such taxation.

Under the head of unfinished busi ness the report of the committee upon "schools which was submitted fit the meeting of the chamber on May 21 was taken up. Upon motion the report was > placed on file, aud Director T. D. Mer . win ottered the following resolutions: '; Whereas, The moral, intellect ual and material prosperity of the state de pends chiefly upon the character of its 'free educationoi institutions; and Whereas, The public-"* schools of this icity are recognized by leading educators 'as of first rank; therefore. -<■ Resolved. That appreciative recogni tion and cordial support should be ac corded those to whose efforts this fact 'is due; to the : public-spirited citizens, who, as members of the board of edu cation, have sanctioned and fostered progressive methods and measures; to the superintendent, who has planned •"and -executed, and to the corns of -teachers. < Who, ' under his inspection, •have carried to practical, success the 'plans of their superiors. : : * * t Resolved, further. That while our --schools should be managed with wise 'economy, they should not be crippled - nor embarrassed by short-sighted and petty parsimony. Mr. Merwin spoke cordially of the school system of the city and the high standard attained by the devotion of the educators co-operating with- a most zealous and well-equipped superintend ent, whose retention lie believed would be the ideal of the survival of the fittest, the right man in the right Dlace. In telligence has guided, and progress been made in the work of the public "schools. Mr. Merwin referred to some features which lie thought should be brought prominently to the public no tice. Among these Is the vital rear rangement of the course of study, for instance, iv arithmetic nonessential points have been laid aside; in reading historical and scientific matter has been introduced; history has been introduced in the grade schools; .more than twenty kindergartens have been estab ished; the manual training schooi has been developed, placing it in rank and excel lence on a plane with the best institu tions of the country; the teachers have organized for systematic training, secur ing lectures and books at their own ex pense. In fact, the school work has taken on enthusiasm and interest hitherto imperceptible and unknown, scholars and teachers co-operating iv all respects. ;". . i, ' .. The resolutions were unanimously adopted. At the meeting of the cham ber next Monday a new president is to be elected to succeed Capt. H. A. Castle, who, it is understood, cannot serve again. It is probable W. P. Clough will be the choice of the directors. Other officers and the standing commit tees will also be named. TO QUASH A COURT.
