PHOTOS GET PRIZES AWARDS ARE MADE BY THE JUDGES FOR THE INTER STATE EXHIBIT. ZWEIFEL, OF DULUTH, FIRST. ZEMTH CITY GETS THE FIRST PLACE IN A CAREFULLY MARKED CONTEST. MEET IN MINNEAPOLIS NEXT. Sisic-r City Is Selected ns the Ren dezvous for the Gathering of Next Summer, The fourth annual convention of the Northwestern Photographers' associa tion will be held in Minneapolis in Au gust, 1898. This was decided at the opening of yesterday's session. The last day of the convention was a very busy one, and included^a series of short talks on different points in the school of instruction, constituting possibly one of the most profitable fea tures of the course. John Edsworth, of the Cramer Dry Plate company, spoke of the development of the dry plates. Theodore Campbell, of the Hammer Dry Plate company, gave a practical- demonstration of posing and lighting, on which subject J. M. Whip pie and C. A. Zimmerman also spoke briefly. A very interesting lecture was de livered by J. M. Fell, of the American Aristo company, on "Hints on the Dark Room," which was as beneficial to his listeners as any paper of the school. At the business meeting which fol lowed,after some discussion, an amend ment was made to the by-laws that hereafter all exhibits must be entered by number instead of by the photog rapher's name, so that the work will be criticised on its merits and not Upon the reputation of the exhibitor. Any person desiring to enter an exhibit must notify the secretary in advance and will be provided with a number which he shall attach to his work.and a sealed envelop will contain his name and address. After the judges have made their decision, his name will then be attached to his display. Also that any person making an exhibit and who does not care to enter the con test, must notify the secretary to that effect in advance. A vote of thanks was extended to the retiring officers for their services. To the second vice president, M. F. Hein zelman, is special credit due, as he was called upon unexpectedly to pre side during the entire session, in the absence of the president and first vice president. That his services were ap preciated is evinced by the fact that the convention was unanimous in elect ing him first vice president. The Judges, Messrs. Varney and Pry or, of La Crosse,' and Peterson, of Fari bault, then made their report of the markings of the exhibits. These mark ings were made on a basis of 100 per cent, and included posing, lighting, printing and chemical effect. Tobias Zweifel, of Duluth, easily carried off the honors, his work ranking far above that of any of his competitors. There were eight in the display of portraiture who had a percentage of 50 or over, thus entitling them to diplomas, while the commercial work of Haas» Brothers, of St. Paul, was par excellence.

This closed the convention, but the members gathered in the exhibition hall to spend several hours in pleasant social conversation and to receive the many visitors, who had called to in spect the artistic display, the hall being open to outsiders yesterday. Most of the photographers It ft last evening to return to their homes — and to turn out a finer class of work at their respective studios than they ever did before. Some of them, however, will remain in St. Paul over Sunday, to view some of the many points of interest in this vi cinity. The third annual convention has proved a splendid success, socially, and from an educational standpoint. The exhibits, while not so many in number as last year, were far more excellent from an artistic view, and show con siderable improvement over a year ago. The members are enthusiastic in their work, and look forward to even a bigger meeting next year. BRAAK'S BAD BREAK. He Arrests 11 Cyclist While Pursuing a Tliief. Andrew Moe, a local wheelman, had one case of alleged violation of the bi cycle ordinance pending in the police court yesterday, when he was again arrested for scorching. Wednesday he was captured on the Summit avenue cycle path by Officer Braak, and when tried in the municipal court, set up the defense that one of the pedals on his wheel had broken, thus making con trol of the machine impossible. The case was continued. Yesterday Moe was informed that a stolen bicycle in possession of a strang er, was proceeding toward Minneapolis on the Summit avenue path. He ob tained permission at police headquar ters to chase the supposed thief, and was bowling along at a three-minute clip, when Officer Braak again appeared" on the scene and placed him under arrest. The policeman refused to be lieve Moe's explanation, but he was subsequently released upon an order from the central station. The $5 bail deposited in the first case was declared forfeited on Moe's non appearance in court yesterday. Comrades Are reminded that the "Albert Lea Route" is the official route to Buffalo, N.

Grand Avenue Motoneer Prevents a Serious Accident. Motoneer Peterson, of the Grand avenue electric line, prevented a run away accident yesterday morning, and undoubtedly saved the life of a little girl. As his car approached the groc ery store of George M. Ray, on Grand avenue, near the corner of Cambridge avenue, a horse attached to a delivery wagon in which Alice Hearn was wait ing to take a ride with the clerk, be came frightened and started to run away. By this time the car was close to the animal and Peterson jumped off, catching the horse by the bridle as he ran by. The plucky motoneer was dragged half a block and his clothes badly torn, but he succeeded in bringing the runaway to a standstill without serious injury to himself.

The state high school board held an interesting meeting at the office of W. W. Pendergast, state superintendent of public instruction, yesterday afternoon, President Northrop and Supt. Pender gast being present, with the governor absent. Inspector George 13. Aiton, of the high schools, and Inspector J. S. Rankin, of the graded schools, were also present to make their reports. On the representation of Mr. Aiton four new schools were added to the list entitled to receive $500 from the state annually for elementary normal train ing: Hastings, Red Wing, Rushford and St. Paul Three graded schools were added to the list of high schools entitled to the annual allotment of $400, to wit: How ard Lake. Renville and Shakopee. The other schools which have been so re ceiving: the allotment were all relisted. A number of additions were also made to the list of graded schools which meet the conditions required by the state before permitting them to share in the $"iOO allotment. The schools added were as follows: Park Rapids, Two Harbors, Fertile, Lamberton, Grand Rapids, Mountain Lake, Royal ton, Chat-ka, Belgrade, Cambridge, Evansville, Carlton, Stephen and Win throp. This makes 97 schools, out of a total of 175, which are entitled to the al lotment, but of these perhaps 10 or a dozen manifest a tendency to fall be hind the standard I required of such schools, and it is possible that some changes may be made in the list at the next meting of the board unless there is a visible improvement in the work of the schools at an early date. THIS IS THE DAT For the Railway Clerks' Big; Outing at Taylor's Kails.

City Treasurer Horst has an idea that the report of the special council com mittee appointed to investigate his ac tions in depositing city funds in the Allemannia bank, did him an injustice. In order that he might be given a chance to explain to the public what he meant when he said he had not been treated fairly by the committee, the Globe publishes the following state ment which was prepared by Mr. Horst yesterday: 1 think <n the main the committee wanted the report signed by them to be a fair state ment of he faes. But in common fairness, if they thought it necessary to comment on the total deposits for a few days in the Allemannia bank when I took office in June, 1896, they should also have stated the facts. First, that the funds in the treasurer's hands exceeded the amount provided for by the council in accepted bonds to the amount of $529,000, and that that sum had to be de posited somewhere under the provisions of the charter. That soon thereafter we drew at one time $60,000 out of this bank and that when the funds were low the balance in that bank did not exceed $58,000. The committee seems to lay great weight to the fact that when I wrote my statement I looked up date of bond and date of ap proval by council, and use it as an argument that because I am able now to figure out the time I must have known of the facts at that time. The same logic is used in com ing to the conclusion on the resolution ques tion. As to my reference to the charter, I would like to whisper a state secret to the commit tee in strictest confidence. It is this: '.'ig norance of law is no excuse for its viola tion." The reference to the charter was made because it Justified the action of the treas urer in the premises. Now as to the actual report of the com mittee of what they found in the treasurer's office on the subject to be Investigated. First— if the report had quoted the heavy drafts on the bank and low Balances, as well as picking out the high ones, It would have left the balance as to favoritism shown and hardship worked as I X I-I. The amounts deposited over and above the limit I have already explained are I necessary, on account of more funds being on hand than could be deposited under the bonds, and at no time was the limit exceeded when the funds on hand came within the- limit. In regard to the deposits quoted by the committee: The subcommittee found that on June 12, 1896, the county treasurer paid over to the city for school purposes a check on the Alle mannia bank for $50,000, which was deposited in the Allemannia bank, and that the with drawals during that day and ten days follow ing amounted to $133,233.89, one check being for the amount of $40,537.75, reducing the bal ance in this short space of time to $158. --829.65. On June 23 the county treasurer again gave the city treasurer a check on the Alle mannia bank for $58,500, which was deposit ed in the Allemannia bank as per custom, and on the same day the city drew on the Alle mannia bank f" r tho full amount of interest becoming di«» « for $58,500 In favor of the Bank of ~» nosota. at that time the designated transrlf fors of funds to tho city's financial agent ie New York. The committee reports the deposits from Nov. 1. 1596, to time of failure of bank as being the periods of time in which the reso lution was passed. The fact of the matter Is the resolution was published Nov. 9. 189 G. They may have thought the difference in time and amount was not material, but where large transactions occur like in the treasurer's of fice 50. 000,000 receipts and the same amount of disbursements per annum a few days means a great deal. If the Allemannia bank had kept its doors open for nine days longer the pay roil of the school, $40,000, would have reduced its bal ance materially. The committee fails to enow that during this period the withdrawals were about the same as the deposits. SOCIETY IS SOMNOLENT, Although a Pew Pleaaant Parties Break the Monotony. Mrs. J. C.

WHERE IS JOEY SANDS t Reported to Hia Pupa That He V. us Robbed. J. H. Sands, postmaster at White water Falls, Winona county, this state, called at the central police station last evening in search of his son, "Joey" Sands. Postmaster Sands received a letter yesterday morning dated from this city, written by his son, Joseph W. Sands. "Joey," in a four-paged letter, informed his father that he had been robbed of $20 in money and a hunting case gold watch in a restaurant last Tuesday night.

Special IW hastened to St. Paul to see what could be done in the matter. Not knowing his sons address. Postmaster Sands called at the police station to learn if the police had been notified of the rob bery. Capt. Rouleau informed Mr. Sands that no such case had been re ported to the station to his knowledge, and the chances were that the young man was mistaken about the robbery. Mr. Sands seemed quite surprised at this information, and said that his son "Joey," who was seventeen years old, had been attending- the teachers' train ing school at Winona. Last Monday the young man came to St. Paul, hav ing seen an advertisement in the paper that young men could be furnished with good positions by calling at a certain address. According to the let ter he had received from his son the robbery had occurred the day follow ing his arrival in St. Paul. A postal card was dropped in the postoffice last night by Mr. Sands directing his son to meet him this morning at police head quarters. The fact that "Joey" is without money will probably result in his keeping the date with his father today.

Whatever the school board does with regard to the reduction of its appropri ation from the amount which it aFked, it seems probable that little, if any, reduction will be made in the amount to be used for teachers' salaries. In its division of the money, the ordi nance which passed the assembly Thursday night follows the lines sug gested informally by Inspector E. O. Zimmerman at the» meeting of the school board Monday. This division allots $327,150 for teachers' salaries, $43,950 for other salaries, and $49,000 for general expenses. Mr. Zimmerman's idea is that it is from this third item that the greater portion of the reduc tion must be made, and his suggestion was made in accordance with that view. There may be some minor re ductions in teachers' salaries, but he does not think they will be important The suggestion is significant, as Mr. Zimmerman is supposed to be close in the councils of the controlling faction in the board.

Tarns Bixby, of the Dawes Indian commission, returned yesterday from down the country, to remain until next month with his family, pending a re sumption of the deliberations of the commission. The Cherokee Indians are quite dissatisfied with the work of the old commission, it seems, and ap parently a majority seem to favor such a treaty with the government as will permit them to take lands in severalty. The new, or Dawes, com mission hopes to straighten out the tangle ultimately. tar. Bixby says that nearly all of the Indians of mixed blood are in favor of the treaty; the full-bloods, on the other hand, be ing bitterly opposed to it. Feeling runs so high at times that if a treaty were concluded the persons of the Cherokee commissioners might not be safe from violence. From what Mr. Bixby says, it seems clear that the work of the I Dawes commission will not be brought to a conclusion in a hurry. The senti ment in favor of a treaty, however, seems to be growing, and it will only be a question of time when it will be brought about. The work of the Dawes commission undoubtedly hur ries it along. Two I lays Is the time allowed in which to file your coupons for the Globe voting contest. Dress Goods Dept.
