MANY WOMEN IN ATTENDANCE
{^resident Munroe Delivers His An
nual Address—Calls Attention to
Abase of Postal System on
Second-Class Matter.
The thirty-sixth annual convention of
the Minnesota State Editorial association
Iwas opened yesterday, but the tour of
the bases will not be completed unltil to
day. There was so much business to
pome before the organization that it was
impossible to make a home run in one
day.
When the convention opened yesterday
(morning about 200 editors, "and 100 of
their wives assembled at the . West &otel,.
Where they were warmly welcomed by
Mayor Ames In a neat speech in which he
gave them the freedom of the' city, and
hr.ped they would "see the elephant."
"For we have an elephant in Minneap
olis, he said. '-'He is plucked by the
grand jury- occasionally, but he is still
on exhibition." " .'. ,-t
"Wallace G. Nye, chairman of the con
vention ■ committee • of the Commercial
club, welcomed the guests; he said the
club was, interested in securing con
ventions for Minneapolis, and highly ap
preciated the present gathering. They
would endeavor to entertain them while ;
cere, and hoped that the programme
would meet with their entire approval,
lie also spoke about the programme ar
ranged for the visiting women.and 'hoped
that it would be an incentive for more
editors to bring their wives when they
xnet in the city again.
\Y. J. Munroe, president of the associa
tion, responded happily in a neat little-
Speech,and complimented Minneapolis and
ncr well known reputation for entertain
ing visiting- guests, and said that he knew
every member of the association would
appreciate the warm-hearted welcome
that had been extended. The reception
ccn-mittee was on hand promptly and did
much towards making the visitors at
home while they were assembling.
Badges were presented them, and it was
not long before nearly evrybody in the
lobby of the hotel was wearing a red
badge with a button on which was en
paved a loaf of bread and a print of
butter, which is emblematic of Minneso
ta as the "bread and butter" state. The
badges for the won en were blue, and the
reception committee for the latter was
present to see that the female contingent
■was properly taken care of.
rhe convention got down to business
about 11 o'clock, and President Munroe
deliverer his annual address. He dwelt
largely on the work done during the past
year, spoke of their regular summer out
ir.g, and the benefits that were derived
from such trips, and also called atten
tion to the work done by the executive'
.committee in partially arranging for the
excursions which will be held next year
He called ; attention to the abuses'; of
the postal system cm second-class mail
matter, and said in his judgment the
rate on second-class mail matter should
be doubled. He spoke favorably of the
free delivery system in rural districts,
and contended that no branch of the
government*was more appreciated by the
rural;. population than this. His ad
dress *'-as well received.
The rest of the forenoon was taken up
; with reports of committees, and reading
of papers, th* subject of which will be
thoroughly discussed in today's meeting.
In the ; afternoon session several more'
papers- were read and a. report of the
executive leads/**-, next year's excursion.
The committee iiad looked into the mat
ter and recommended that the next meet
ing be held at Georgia Bay, and that th©
trip be made via the Soo line to the goo,
and a boat be taken from there and a
tour of the Thousand Islands made.
The following committee on . resolutions
was appointed: Frank Day, Fairmont,
Minn. ; John A. Johnson, St. Peter; A. M.
.Wells, Redwood Falls; Irving Todd, of
the State : Editorial association, and
John Leicht, of the executive committee
of the Publisher's association, were ap
pointed delegates to attend the national
association meeting to be held April 15,
at Hct Springs, Ark. " .
The women were entertained in the af
ternoon by being taken through Donald
son's green houses, and later at a re
ception and znusicale given at the resi
dence of Mrs. W. J. Murphy, who was
assisted in receiving by the members of
the ladies' local reception committee. In
the evening tickets, were furnished the
visiting delegates and their wives, and
they attended the performances at the
local theaters, and after the show the
men were entertained at a smoke social

local press.

in Ills Hallway.
George Mead, a conductor for the street
railway company, residing at 514 Central
avenue, had a somewhat unique expe
rience Wednesday when he returned home
after his day's work. It was quite dark
in the hallway, and he could not see a
bundle that was placed on the first step,
and he .stumbled over it.
The cries of a baby issued from the
'inindle and he picked it up, carrying it
up stairs to his wife. The bundle was
opened and a little girl baby not over a
day old was brought to view. She was
a sweet child and apparently in the best;
of health. Mr. and Mrs. Mead had a
little girl of their own, but she died about
seven months ago and they have decided

Five Hundred Reported Killed and
Wounded in Spanish Strike Riot.
LONDON, Feb. 20.—A message to the
Exchange Telegraph company from Bar
celona, via Perpignan, France, says a
fierce battle has been fought between the
troops and the rioters in Sano, a suburb
of Barcelona. Before tne engagement
the cavalry and infantry had been post
ed in the most dangerous points, and a
field battery had been located on the
plaza, Irom which vantage point the
guns could sweep the surrounding streets.
When tba filial clash with -the troops
occurred, continues the dispatch, the ar
tillery was brought into action and raked
street after street. The rioters engaged
the batteries at close range, but were
finally driven off. It is reported that 500
persons were killed and wounded on both
sides. The entire neighborhood was
wrecked by the shells. The ruins caught
fire and this completed the destruction.
Further fighting is reported at Mataro,

RELATIVES WERE NOT THERE.
The Body of Andrew Tapper Heats
in Layman's Cemetery.
Ail that, was mortal of Andrew Tapper
was yesterday deposited in a grave in
Layman's cemetery. No one was pres
ent at the obsequies except the grave dig
gers, the hearse driver and a single at
tendant. The certificate of the death
of Tapper was received by the (health
commissioner, and it gives his death as
"broken neck" and the immediate cause
as "murder." No mention whatever is
made of legal hanging.
Inasmuch as official and correct records
of hig death have been filed in Carver
county, the health commissioner issued
the usual burial permit without question.
Although Tapper has relatives in the city
none were present at the burial.

WASN'T LOOKING FOR A JOB.
One of the chief trial 3of the average
congressman is the persistence of the
young women who apply to them to use
their influence in securing employment
in the departments. It is no wonder, per
haps, that they adopt all sorts of means
to avoid an interviejf with such constit
uents.
On a recent occasion a young lady call
ed at the hall of the house of represen
tatives and, presenting a card upon
which was her name, said, "Please take
this to Representative Mudd." The door
keeper did as directed, and Mr. Mudd,
glancing at the card, noticed that the
name was prefixed with Miss, "Tell the
young lady," said he, "that I have not
a single vacant place at my disposal."
The doorkeeper returned to the young
lady and informed her of what Mr.
Mudd said.
"There must be some mistake about
this," said the visitor. 'Go back and tell
him that I want to see him personally."
Again the doorkeeper went into the
house, called on Mr. Mudd and told him
what, the young lady had said, and Mr.
Mudd replied:
"Tell her I am not in the house."
Again the doorkeeper performed his
mission and the younjr woman, who was
by this time, thoroughly angry, said:
"You go and tell my father that his
daughter wants to see him."
Mr. Mudd, upon receiving this message,
hastily secured his hat and took Miss
Mudd down to the house restaurant,
where he gave her a nice lunch and ask
"cd her to "forget it. "—Chicago Chronicle.
