BUNKMATES MEET
Af TER FORTY YEARS
Veterans, Parted In Hospital,
Reunited in Federal Build
ing Corridor.
"Bob!"
"Jeff!"
With these familiar salutations two
gray-haired veterans of the Civil war
met in the corridor of the postoffice
yesterday afternoon for the first time
since they were bunkmates in the
army hospital at Rood's Landing on
the Pumonka river forty years ago.
They were Lieut. Jefferson Knapp, of
ISacramento, Cal., and Robert McElroy,
employed as a watchman at the fed
eral building, where the two met acci
dentally yesterday after being sepa
rated so long.
The meeting was a most pathetic
one, and .more than one passerby
stopped and gazed as the two old men,
bent under the age of years and hard
ehips, embraced each other with tears
In their eyes, utterly regardless of
their surroundings.
Lieut. Knapp, en route to his home
In Sacramento after a visit in the East,
Stopped in St. Paul for a day and dur
ing the afternoon decided to pay a
visit to the federal building. Passing
through the corridors on the main
floor he came face to face with Watch
man McElroy. A moment's hesitation
and the man from California ran up
and held out his hand, calling his old
comrade by his first name. Mr. Mc-
Elroy was rather nonplussed, but only
Tor an Instant, and then he recognized
In the man before him his old com
rade and bunkmate, with whom he
had enlisted in Company F, Thirty
sixth Wisconsin volunteers, but whom
lie had not seen or heard from in forty
long years.
Overcoming the surprise incident to
their meeting, the two veterans went
back to their experiences of the war,
and a more pleasant afternoon could
hot have been had by two persons.
The last time Lieut. Knapp and Pri
vate McElroy met as soldiers both were
privates confined to the hospital after
having been severely wounded in the
battle of Cold Harbor June 8, 1864.
Mr. Knapp was the first to recover,
6nd bidding his old comrade good-by,
returned to the firing line, being later
xnade a lieutenant for bravery dis
played in capturing a rebel flag. Mc-
Elroy did not leave the hospital until
the following October, and never heard
what had become of Knapp.
At the close of the war Lieut. Knapp
went to Texas, where he took up ranch
life and lost all track of his comrade,
whom he did not know was living until
he met him yesterday.
"I would have known you in li thou
sand, Bob," is the way Lieut. Knapp
expressed himself to McElroy. "The

"Yes, and I recognized you as soon

McElroy, and the two withdrew from
the gaze of the wondering public and
had a good, long talk over old times.
HENRY W. KNOX PASSES
AWAY AT WASHINGTON
Former Public Examiner of Minnesota
Dies at Age of Seventy-four.
A Washington, D. C, telegram to
The Globe last night announced the
death there last night of Henry W.
Knox, until a few years ago a promi
nent resident of Minnesota.
Mr. Knox was from 1878 to 1888 pub
lic examiner for Minnesota, being orig
inally appointed by Gov. John S. Pills
bury and continuing in the office
through five successive terms. He re
moved from St. Paul to Washington,
where his death occurred, at the age
of seventy-four. Mr. Knox was a
brother of the late John I. Knox, for
several y«a»-s comptroller of the United
States treasury.
Bids for Fuisl for Forts.
Bids were received yesterday at the
Army building for the fuel supply for all
the forts and posts in the department of
Dakota. No awards were made, but the
estimates were forwarded to Washington
by Lieut. Col. J. McE. Hyde, chief quar
termaster of the department.

ALD. CORNING RESENTS
INSINUATION MADE
BY C. J. HUNT
Continued From First Page.
request of Mr. Burdick, the local man
ager of the street railway company."
Dobner Stands by Corning.
"Any man who comes here and ac
cuses Aid. Corning with betraying his
constituency at the request of a cor
poration will not have a feather's
weight with me, and I believe that the
other members of the committee feel
as I do," asserted Chairman Dobner.
Mr. Corning stated that he did not
recall having made a promise to vote
for the resolution, but remembered
having stated on one occasion he would
"be glad to do all that he could," or
that he "saw no reason'why he should
oppose it." He held that his constitu
ents were all the people of the city,
and did not believe that he had been
guilty of "betraying them." As to the
proposed extension he had not made
up his mind as to how he would vote,
but If the extension was practicable
he would like to see it go through.
Harris Aronson, another one of the
numerous delegation present and fa
voring the extension, followed the lead
of Mr. Hunt, saying:
"Never having been in politics I
cannot tell if the request of Mr. Bur
dick, for the street railway company,
should be of more importance to our
alderman than his promise and duty to
your petitioners to assist them in se
curing this extension, at the urgent re
quest of our district, in his ward. Nine
times out of every ten it takes the peo
ple of our neighborhood from seven
teen to twenty minutes to get a car,
and twenty-five minutes to get down
town, which represents the time that it
takes to go to Minneapolis. It would
require but one additional car to op
erate the extension, and the argument
that it would congest travel on the
Selby hill does not hold good, for the
reason that the cars would run no
oftener than they do now." „
Report Against Resolution.
An effort was made to refer the
measure to Aid. Corning, who did not
appreciate the implied confidence, and
asked that the committee take action.
The vote was S to 2, Messrs. Dobner,
Bantz and Moriarty voting in favor of
the unfavorable report, and Messrs.
Holt and DahJquist against such ac
tion.
The ordinance requiring that the
street railway company give a ten
minute service on the Merriam Park
extension of the Selby line was yes
terday recommended for passage by
the committee.
Several "persons interested in the ex
tension of the "Selby Short" line to
Griggs street argued that this meas
ure was being put through to kill their
effort, and C. J. Hunt charged that
it was a Btreet railway measure.
Chairman Dobner called upon Aid.
Elder to explain at whose instance he
had introduced the measure, and Elder
answered that he had acted at the in
stance of the people of Merriam Park.
The vote to recommend passage was

RAILWAY MAIL CLERKS ENTERTAIN
NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OFFICERS
President J. R. McCoy and
Party Come to St. Paul to
Arouse Interest of the Local
Clerks in Mutual Benefit As
sociation —Organization Now
Boasts of Membership Num
bering 4,901 In United States,
Porto Rico and the Philip
pines.
St. Paul railway mail clerks last
evening, at the Windsor hotel, enter
tained a party of national officers of
the Railway Postal Clerks' Mutual
Benefit association, and at an informal
banquet listened to addresses on the
prosperity and development of the as
sociation.
Included in the party were J. R. Mc-
Coy, Trenton, N. J., national president;
W. S. Corning-, Chicago, national sec
retary and treasurer; W. D. Madigan,
St. Paul, national vice president; F. W.
Crawford, Chicago, national vice presi
dent and a director, and W. B. Stewart,
Dubuque, lowa, chief clerk of his di
vision and holder of Certificate No. 2
in the order. -
President McCoy and the others of
his party reached St. Paul yesterday
morning and spent the day as the
guests of the local association. They
were entertained during the afternoon
with a carriage ride and also taken
to Minneapolis. In the evening an in
formal banquet was spread In Parlor
B at the Windsor, and there were short
addresses by several of the visitors and
also by members of the local associa
tion.
"The association now has a mem
bership of 4,901 throughout the United
States, Porto Rico and the Philip
pines," said President McCoy yester
day. "It was organized in 1874, was
STUDENTS PRESENT
CLASSICAL FANTASY
Centra! High Pupils Score Suc
cess in "A Midsummer
Night's Dream."
The presentation of "A Midsummer
Night's Dream" would seem to be a
formidable undertaking for high school
students, so much is demanded in the
way of stage settings. But the stu
dents of the Central high school pre
sented it so successfully last night that
the audience was not once permitted to
feel that Shakespeare's exquisite fan
tasy was being irreverently treated.
The college version of the play,
which was the one used by the stu
dents, is In three acts, with two scenes
in the first and the second and one in
the final act. The principal characters
were all intrusted to capable hands,
the scenery, while simple was in ex
cellent taste and adequate, and the
costuming was artistic and correct.
Dance of Fairies.
One of the prettiest features of the
play was the dance of the fairies.
These fairies were pretty, graceful
girls, who looked exceedingly fairylike
in their flower-decked draperies, to
which were fastened gauzy wings.
Their dance was warmly encored.
Adolph Rank, who played the part of
Bottom, the weaver, has genuine dra
matic talent, and he made this capital
low-comedy role stand out prominently
by the excellence of his acting. In
Morris Lanpher, who was Quince, the
carpenter, he had a capable assistant.
Mr. Lanpher's grimaces were inimi
table; Indeed, his conception of the
character was surprisingly mature and
Indicated some histrionic insight.
Oberon, the king of the fairies, was
played by Grant Kelllher with intelli
gence and grace. He has a fine • bass
voice, which "was heard to advantage
in his solo In the second act and in his
duet with Miss Georgia Sherman, "I
Know a Bank Whereon the Wild Thyme
Grows." Miss Sherman's dramatic so
prano is admirably trained. The duet
was one of the most pleasing features
of the entertainment.
Parts Well Played.
Miss Edna Mills was a winsome Ti
tania, and little Gerald Walsh, as the
mischievous Puck, or Robin Goodfel
low, was an exceedingly datinty and
attractive little elf. The two heroines
of "A Midsummer Night's Dream," if
heroines they may be called, were well
played by Miss Elizabeth Breen and
Miss Lillian Goodenow. Little Miss
Breen in stature and general appear
ance fitted perfectly the role of Her
mia; and Miss Goodenow was "divinely
tall and most divinely fair," as Helena
should be.
William Crosby and Donald Myers,
who played the parts of Lysander and
Demetrius, respectively, were most sat
isfactory, and Paul Berrisford, as the
duke, and Gertrude Ford, as the queen
of the Amazons, aided in the success
of the play. The parts of the trades
men were all well taken, Ralph Me-
Guckin, who was Starveling, the tailor,
being especially good.
Credit for the success of the produc
tion is due not only to those who took
part in it, but to Miss Austen, who di
rected it, and to Miss Olive Long, who
assisted in staging it. The play will be
presented again this evening.

M THE DAIRYMEN
Butter Scoring Contest Will Be
Held Early in June.
The dairy and food commission Is
preparing for the May butter scoring
contest held under the direction of the
department, which will be held early
In June, The delay is occasioned by
the fact that the department desired
that both the butter scoring and the
cheese scoring contests should be held
approximately on the same date.
Butter for the contest must be in
St. Paul June 2, and it is expected that
nearly 150 entries will be made. As
there are 68 to 70 cheddar cheese fac
tories in Minnesota - and the interest
among - cheese iron is ■- strong in the
first cheese contest, It is believed by
members of the state " department that
nearly all will be represented.
It is not believed that the brick
cheesemakers will exhibit their prod
uct for scoring, as it is not sufficiently
ripened, as yet. The two contests will
be conducted by the dairy and food
department, but the scorers will be
independent of the commission's rep
resentatives.
Refused Ride in Ambulance.
Lest he might be thought contumacious
rather than contused, S. B. Lewis, who
was injured yesterday morning near Cook
and Cortland streets, refused to ride to
his home, 201% Mcßoal street, in a police
ambulance. Lewis, a driver for L. L.
May & Co., fell from his wagon near 111
Cook street, cut his lip and bruised his
hip. When Police Surgeon Moore arrived
with the police ambulance the suffering
man asked that they send for a hack.
ECZEM
The World's Greatest
Skin Humour.
Affects Every Age and
Condition.
The Only Sure Cure is
Cuticura.
If there were not another external
skin disease known, eczema would be a
sufficient infliction on mankind. It per
vades all classes, and descends impar
tially through generations. While some
are constantly enveloped in it, otherg
have it confined to small patches in the
ears, on the scalp, on the breast, on the
palms of the hands, on the limbs, etc,
but everywhere its distinctive feature it
a small watery blister, which discharges
an acrid fluid, causing heat, inflamma
tion, and intense itching, scaling and
crusting.
The Caticnra treatment is at once
agreeable, speedy, economical and com
prehensive. Bathe the affected parts
freely with ho* water and Cdtlcura
Eoap, to cleanse the surface of Croats
and scales, and soften the thickened
cuticle. Dry, without hard rubbing,
and apply Cuticura Ointment to allay
Itching, irritation and inflammation,
and soothe and heal, and, lastly, take
Cuticura Resolvent, or Pills, to cool and
cleanse the blood. This treatment af
fords instant relief, permits rest and
sleep in the severest forms of eczema
and other itching, burning and scaly
humours, and points to a speedy, per
manent and economical cure of tor
turing, disfiguring humours, eczemas,
rashes and inflammations, from infancy
to age, when ail other remedies and tht
best physicians fail.

PROFESSOR FLITS,
DESERTING CUSS
Embryo Mandolinisis Con
fronted by Locked Door In
stead of Kind Teacher.
Walk in. Open at 2 p. m.
This gilded invitation glistens on the
reception room door of the Boston
School of Music, Bradley building,
East Fifth street. But all that glitters
is not as true as gold. The Boston
School of Musk: will not open at 2 p.
m., nor at 3 p. m., nor yet at 4 or 5
p. m. The Boston school opened at 2
p. m. for the last time last Saturday.
"S. C. Osborn, director," having placed
the musical culture of St. Paul on a
firm foundation within eight months,
had closed his conservatory and gone
away.
With the absent-mindedness of your
true musician, Director Osborn forgot
to post his present address upon the
gilded door. The three handsome front
rooms occupied by the Boston school
on the second floor have therefore dis
appointed some hundreds of boys and
girls. These fledgling artists, each
carrying a mandolin in a new green
bag, have assembled at 2 o'clock each
day. They have pounded long, even
unmusically, as ill befitted them, upon
the gilded doors of room 209, of room
210 and of room 210%.
Artistic Gamins Wail.
"I hain't got half me lessons," ex
claimed one freckle-faced boy, his fin
gers blackened with the notes of Bee
thoven.
"Ncr me nuther," chimed in a second
lover or the lyre. "I hain't got a tent'
of mine, I hain't."
A maiden with curls much longer
than her skirts almost wept on the
bosom of the elevator man.
"The professor told me," she sobbed,
"to tell my ma I'd be the best scholar
in all the class —after I got started.
'N —'n—'n, how am I goin* to start
now ?"
A larger lady, too dignified for tears,
said bitterly:
" 'Twasn't her was goin' to be the
best—'twas me, that's what it was! He
said so no more'n last week." Then
she added, with a calm triumph:
"I don't care. I can play Bedelia."
Thus culture has been crushed to
earth, locally, by S. C. Osborn, director,
and the books don't tell whether cul
ture Is likely to rise again.
The professor's method of bottling
the port of artistic hopes began with
the hiring of three fine rooms last Sep
tember. Then he advertised that he
would give superior instruction upon
the mandolin at the rate of thirty-two
lessons for $16, payable in advance.
He would also give away "a valuable
mandolin" to each new pupil merely
as an evidence of good will. He sought
very-young pupils, with whom, he said,
he had particular success. And he
secured them —from 500 to 1,000 of
them, according to report. They were
delighted with the free mandolins, and
especially with the little green bags
which were not even promised.
Overlooked Time Limit.
The professor himself was satisfied
with nominal fees, earnest students
and contracts. In each contract, as is
alleged, was a time limitation that
usually escaped the notice of signers
hypnotized by art. That is, the thir
ty-two lessons must be taken before
May 7, 1904.
A very few pupils got their mando
lins, their green bags and all their
lessons from the professor or his sev
eral assistants. But the great ma
jority of the future "pluck-pluckers"
received mandolins, bags and very few
lessons, not being encouraged to over
exertion.
And when May 7 arrived last Sat
urday Director Osborn had collected
$8,000 to $16,000, settled all his bills
with conscioentlous exactness and left
town. The many hundred pupils had
—"well, we has our instryments,
hasn't we?" protested one optimistic
child yesterday. His "instryment"
might be bought for $2.
Director Osborn was no doubt called
away to one of the fourteen other man
dolin conservatories which he is said
to be conducting in other cities with
admirable success.
Improvement Associations to Meet.
A meeting of the Grand View Heights
Improvement association will be held to
night at 546 Ohio street. The Eighth
Ward Improvement association will hold
its regular meeting tonight at Weiler hall,
Wiwiliv avenue and Dale street.
THINKS DEMOCRATS
CAN ELECT GOVERNOR
Chairman J. H. Buck, of State
Committee, Sees Chance in
Republican Row.
"The Republican candidates for gov
ernor are laying themselves out and
the Democrats of Minnesota will get
together along in the summer and will
nominate a clean-cut fearless man for
governor who will be elected," said J.
H. Buck, of Wlnona, chairman of the
Democratic state central committee, .at
the Merchants last night.
"The Republicans are in a pretty
row, and I see no good reason why the
opportunity is not ripe for the nomina
tion and election of a Democrat as
governor of this state. Everybody re
members that in a presidential year
Gov. Van Sant narrowly escaped being
defeated by John Lind, and with a
thoroughly organized and united party
behind the Republican candidate.
"I fail to see how the Republicans
can ever get together after telling so
many plain truths about each other
as they have in the past few weeks
and after having engendered a bitter
ness that has not been equaled in the
past decade of Minnesota Republican
politics, if ever before in the history of
that party.
"It seems to me the time is ripe for
united action by the Democrats and
with a strong candidate, even with the
prestige of a Republican candidate for
president on the ticket, there will be
thousands and thousands of Repub
licans who will never vote for the nom
inee of that party after the scorching
fight that has been raging and prom
ises to continue in the party until long
after the nominations are made June
30.
"We will have a convention about Sept.
1 and we will be in a position to take ad
vantage of the Republican turmoil and
bring out a man who will command the
respect and admiration of not only the
members of our own party but of a great
many Republicans, who are thoroughly
disgusted with the conduct of their lead
ing candidates for governor."
Chairman Buck, while advocating the
nomination of a man who will fill every
requirement as a candidate to make a
winning fight, declined to name a man
who is available. "It is too early," he
said, "and we will cross the bridge when
we come to it. There are a number of
men in the party who could be suggested
to lead the party on the state ticket this
fall, but it would not be wise to suggest
them at this time. The Republicans will
be given the fight of their live*, this fall,
and they may as well realize it now as
when it is too late."

the judgeship in 1594 from the head of one
of the Northwest railway systems.
It was stated last night at the Collins
headquarters in the Manhattan block that
a statement had been prepared and would
be given out for publication this morning
which would include copies of the corre
spondence that had passed between the
railroad president mentioned and Judge
Collins and State Librarian E. A. Nel
son.
The situation in the two rival Repub
lican camps yesterday was quiet after the
storm, and the fighting factions had lit
tle to say of what they, intended to do.
The Dunn men were apparently resting
on their oars in anticipation of a state
ment from Judge Collins. A close friend
of Judge Collins said last night that his j
