Evening's Attrac . tion* ' Such as Will Draw Crowds That Clet Away From the Cities During; the —Meeting: of the ■ Iloctril. r-- . The board of managers of the state fair association" met last evening at the Merchants hotel and made plans for a number of* attractions for this year's fair, and considered several propositions of an entirely new departure, upon which no action was taken pending further in vestigation. Thei board reviewed the race programme, for.. v the afternoons and .made a number of slight changes, but the schedule was left substantially* the same as published by.the Globe some weeks ago. .. . - Secretary Randall was" authorized to make contracts, with the owners of the guideless wonders for their reappearance on the fair' grounds track next fall. ■ The horses are of ".the. same string., and were one of the striking features of last year's • show. "The board decided to Include in the programme a novelty which promises to be one of the strongest attractions ever given on the fair grounds. Two . diving horses. Snow Face and Eureka, dive from'a scaffold'forty- feet high into a pool 'of. water a dozen, feet deep. The board, in accepting the offer- of. the-owners of the■'. horses, believes that the horses will . be a valuable attraction to the fair pro gramme. Secretary Randall explained to the board that he witnessed an exhibi tion by the horses last year. The first horse makes a clean' dive head first Into the water. .Eureka Is the ,clown horse, climbs the platform and amuses the spec tators for several minutes before taking the leap, all fours first Into the water. Secretary Randall reported that the half-mile track, within the main trad.:, directly in front of the grand stand, had been completed. The running races will be held over the smaller course. The board spent several hours consid ering the advisability of holding a grand spectatcular entertainment in the even ing by electric light. The departure will entail an outlay of in the neighborhood of $15,000 for an electric light plant and the cost of the additional attractions.- While no definite action was taken, com mittees were appointed to look into a number of details, and the board gave It out as quite likely that the project would go through. In such an event it is the intention to light every building on the grounds by electricity, the grand stand, half-mile course and the approach es to the grounds. The admission will be cut in half for the evening show, which will Include chariot races, standing Ro man races and horse races over the half mile course, concluding with a grand py rotechnic exhibition. The proceeds of the last state fair were about $'10,000. and the expenditures $50,000, leaving a balance of $10,000. Part of this balance has been used In making repairs, painting buildings and building the half mile race course. The evening carnival spectacular will be quite expensive, but it Is the opinion of the board-that it will be a greater source of revenue and pleas tire than has "been. Introduced at any previous fair. "~ *■ ~ :-: The people of the Twin 1 Cities who are employed In ; offices, ; factories and com mercial Institutions will have ah. oppor tunity of viewing H collection of Min nesota's choicest.products,^ with the grand stand programme thrown In, for a "merely nominal sum.

The two inspectors appointed to carry out the provisons -of the new milk ordi nance are busy calling on milk dealers and dairymen and presenting applications which must be filed with the health de partment. The Inspectors report that there are nearly 1,000 places In the city where milk in quantities from one to twenty-five gal lons is sold dally. Nearly 300 of the dairymen have filed applications for a li cense but each and every one have pro tested against the payment of an inspec tion fee of 50 cents for each cow. The retail dealers In milk in the city have been a trifle slow in returning the application blanks to the health office and a circular letter has been issued no tifying them that unless applications are made and filed at the office within five days the penalty of .having the sale of milk stopped may be enforced. The letter advises the dealers that" In case the application is properly filled out and returned to the office the applicant is entitled to continue the business until the department has acted upon it.

ST. , PAUJ, - GLOBE. • 2 SATURDAY, MAY 20, 1 899; KIEFER'S NEW TANGLE TIES THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS HAND " AND FOOT TO THE! WELZ PROPOSAL NO CHANCE TO RECONSIDER He Holds That It Requires Ten Day*'. Notice for a Special Meeting' of T the Board, and It Ii Too Late ." Assistant " t'onnty Attorney Zollman Held Otherwise, hat the Mayor Was Firm. Unless the mayor changes his mind in his Interpretation of the law providing for the calling of special meetings of the board of county commissioners the reso lution passed by the board last Monday compromising for $7,000. the claim of the county against the Allemannla bank will have to- stand. After calling a meeting of the board for yesterday afternoon • the executive appeared and stated that he had discovered that the law provided for a ten day's notice to be given before the holding of a special meeting.,-' Conse quently no action was taken in regard to rescinding the compromise resolution and as the business of the bank must be closed up by May 27, there will not be time for further action. Assistant Coun ty Attorney Zollman held that the special meetings might be called- at • a day's notice, but the "mayor proved unwilling to recede from his position. All the commissioners were present when the board met at 4 o'clock, except Commissioner Wright, . and Moses E. Clapp and Edward Yanisri wero on hand to explain the " position taken by . the bondsmen and by the bank. .".*.". The proposition of Col. Welz, on behalf of the bondsmen" was that the county should accept $7,000 and In return release the -Uondsmen and give them an assign ment of the balance of the county's claim of $21,000. Through a misunderstanding the compromise resolution instead of pro viding for the assignment arranged for the taking of a deficiency judgment for the $14,000. This proved unsatisfactory to the bondsmen and to a number of the members of the board. Every one settled down to business, with the expectation that it would take about ten minutes to rescind the former reso lution and adjourn. Commissioner Har dick moved that the beard proceed with its business. • Then the mayor sprung a surprise, by remarking that he called the meeting to order under protest. He had found upon looking up tha authorities that no special meeting could be called without a notice of ten days having been given. General Clapp produced a large law book and argued to the opposite and was backed up by all the commissioners, but the mayor remained obdurate and the board finally adjourned on motion of Commissioner Lott- Then everybody went up to tho county attorney's office and Mr. Zollman. after an Investigation into the subject, declared the mayor to be wrote; "I cannot understand what the mayor meant by calling this meeting to Inform us that he had no power to call it," said Commissioner Gray. "It is certainly a most remarkable proceeding. This opin ion was echoed by other members of the board and Commissioner Hardick in par ticular was very Indignant, -as he pointed ;out chat it was too late to give ten days -notice, as the affair of the bank must be wound up May- 27. .-.; . ...,./ FOR STILLWATER LOOP. Some of the" Assemblymen Insist That Wabasha 'Will Do. ,. Unless President Kirke-and -Messrs? Al-. brecht.and Thompson, of. the assembly, change their Views, the ordinance allow ing the street railway company the use' of Cedar street between Seventh and Eighth streets will hot pass that body.-V The-! trio, of • assemblymen are opposed to -allowing the company th 3 use of the < street, for. several reasons. One is that Cedar street is the only'outlet by which a competing line of street railway could get to the center of the city, and it is feared that if the Twin City Transit com pany is allowed on the street there.would be some trouble In giving another com pany a franchise at some future time. There is also objection to having the street, which is now being paved, dis figured, even for one block, with a street car track. The stret will, in the nexth month be paved from Second street to Como avenue and will make a fine drive way to Como park and a popular street for cyclists. ' '"'-;:" : ;."-;.'.--v-,:■■=. President Kirke has suggested a plan by which the Stillwater cars can turn off Seventh street at Robert and go around the present loop. His Idea is to extend the present switching track used by the interurban cars on Robert street from in front of the Ryan hotel to Eighth street, and he contends that this would give the Stillwater cars plenty of room to make the turn at Seventh and Robert streets. Assemblymen Albrecht and Thompson are in favor of the Stillwater cars being operated up Seventh to Wabasha street and the turn being made at the intersec tion of these streets. The street railway company claim that this would be dan gerous to the operation of not only the Stillwater cars'but to those on the other lines. The assemblymen, however, argue that with the Stillwater cars only operat ed every fifteen minutes the turn could be made and the expense would be nothing more than the salary paid to a switch man at the intersection. Vice President Goodrich, of the street railway company, stated yesterday that If the council did not allow the use of Cedar street for a loop the - Stillwater cars would be stopped at Broadway and the patrons of the line could transfer to other lines at that point. This proposi tion, however, is said by the assembly men who are opposing the use of Cedar street to be in the nature of. a bluff, in order to have the business men of Sev enth and other streets use their influence to push the Cedar street ordinance through. The ordinance will be discussed at an adjourned meeting of the -.." assembly Wednesday evening, at which time As semblyman Benson will offer an amend ment providing that the track on Cedar street be located in such a position that room will be left on the street for an ad ditional track If at any time another com pany should want to use the street as an outlet for a new street car line.

The Jury In the case of the state versus Tim Rally, the colored man charged with receiving stolen property, returned a ver dict last evenig finding the defendant not guilty of the offense charged. Kaily waa Immediately rearrested on leaving the court room on a complaint sworn out by Assistant County Attorney Zollman, charging him with grand larceny In the second degree, and an Interesting legal point is raised as to whether a man can be tried for the same offense by changing Its name. ''••; ■-•.■ - -P'PP-.pPP-•]:.-.■ On April 3 Joe Golke, employed at the Walter A. . Woods Harvester works, cashed a check he had received from the company and came to town with the money. He was inveigled into a room by Nelly St. Lawrence, an octoroon, and it Is charged that-the. roll containing $30 dis appeared while in the room. He accused the woman of the theft, 'and'when she protested her ' innocence ran out for a policeman. : The officer arrived just in time .to see Kaily in the act of leaving the apartment through a window. He was pursued and captured hiding under a load of hay in which the money was found concealed. The woman was In dicted for the larceny and Kaily with re ceiving stolen property. Assistant County Attorney Zollman pro duced witnesses on the stand yesterday who testified to the facts stated, and It looked as if the state had a clear case. Instead, however, of attempting to com bat the testimony of the state's witnesses, Attorney F. L. McGhee, who conducted the defense, stated .that he would show by Rally's sworn evidence that he was himself the thief, and therefore could not be convicted of receiving the stolen prop erty. -■--. P^-^Pj-:-:.--ppp-p ---..::v-^-' Kaily, in his own behalf, testified that the St. Lawrence woman was his com mon-law wife, and that they had lived to gether for five years. . On the day of the theft he had gone into the room while Goike was out calling the policeman. The woman told him that she had been ac cused of robbing a man. Looking around he had found the roll of bills lying on a heap of bed clothes and had immediately taken it and jumped through the window and, on being pursued, had hidden the money in the load of hay.. The jury went out shortly after 5 . o'clock. and returned Its verdict three hours later. ,In regard to the rearrest there Is a dif ference of opinion.. The defense had made no attempt to contradict the testimony of the witnesses for the state and had simply relied on Rally's own'testimony, i he charge of larceny was practically the' same offense that the state endeavored to convict upon, and Judge Lewis, .who tried the case stated that in his opinion it was doubtfal If a conviction could be had on the larceny charge" In . view of. the pre ceding acquittal.
