MEN OF MINNEAPOLIS.
It is reported that Maj. W. £. Has
kell, of the Tribune, window-shade
boomer and poet laureate of the Olson
banquet, is after a consulship, and has
taken measures to bring to the atten
tion of Benjamin Harrison the fact that
his yeoman service in behalf of the Re
publican party, which probably includes
tiie sponsorship of the editorial on ".Mr.
and Mrs. Cleveland as- mere people,"
entitles him to recognition as a repre
sentative of the United States govern
ment at some point in Europe where tho
duties are not too onerous or exacting.
Journalism in the Northwest, however,
would indeed lose a bright and shining
light in the event that such an honor is
tendered.. "_3_BI

Some wicked citizen of Chicago gave

Seelye, what is termed in that ungodly
city' "the wrong steer*' on the Myer-
McAuliffe tight, and he yesterday re
turned from a visit to a small village in
Illinois, at which through trains only
stop once in two days, much fatigued
from a walk of twenty miles to the next
station, where he was enabled to catch
a Chicago express.
Joe Hafflin will shortly start for an

he can note with greater accuracy the
startling changes in Minneapolis to be
worked by retrenchment and reform
during his absence.
NOTE AND COMMENT.
Retrenchment and Reform (notice the
big Rs) has struck the sheriff's office.
Yesterday morning the janitor started
in to clean the walls and ceiling by re
moving the smoke and dust with dough.
This is a clear saving of some $200, as
it would have cost that much if done by
the day.
The automatic cash register, which
ornamented the back of a bar of a Nic
ollet avenue saloon, has disappeared.
"We took it away chiefly because that
it would not make a bartender honest,
and if he was dishonest it would not de
tect him," remarked the proprietor.
"It's chief advantage was to keep tab
on change. If a bar tender was busy
and forgot whether he had taken pay
for certain drinks, it would sometimes
help him to remember. I have caught
one or two beats who claimed they paid
me by pointing to the register, which
showed a different amount than they
owed me, but the scheme worked both
ways, and the other day a fellow who
had worked me for a drink called the
register up as a witness against me."
A striking improvement is noticea
ble of late in the local weekly papers of
Minneapolis, which are preparing their
mission as retailers of neighborhood
news creditably and well. The most
radical change for the better is in the
West End Herald, which has improved
vastly in the tone and quality of its
articles.

SHELTERING^ ARMS.
One of the Greatest Social
Affairs of the Season at
the West.
Many of the Most Prominent
People in the City Are
Present.
The Leader," Gellerup's New
Play, Presented at the
Hennepin Theater.
Two Large Firms Sell Out—
A Scrap at the Nicollet
House.
St. Valentine's, day., in the evening
was brought to a happy close in Minne
apolis by one of the grandest social
affairs of the season. - It was the first
annual reception of the Sheltering Arms
at the West hotel. This benevolent so
ciety of the Episcopal, church is
laboring ~ under a burden of debt,
and the good people interested
in it have been planning to give this re
ception to aid and further the cause.
The parlors and ordinary of the great
hotel were all thrown open for the oc
casion, daintily though not profuse
ly decorated with flowers for the occa
sion. In one of the parlors a beautiful
design composed of calla lilies, roses
and sm i lax bore in graceful letters of
white primrose on a background of red
immortelles the words "Sheltering
Arms."
By 9 o'clock there had gathered to
gether nearly a thousand of the first so
ciety people of the city, most hand
somely arrayed in full-dress costumes.
In the ordinary, to the music of Danz's
full orchestra, the younger members of
the party were happy in the delights of
the most fascinating waltz. The great
halls and parlors were filled with tiie
chivalry and the beauty of the city, the
' BEAUTIFUL COSTUMES
and more beautiful forms with the sterl
ing manhood of the city furnishiug the
beautiful rooms to the happiest effect.
A pleasing part of the programme of
the evening was the vocal music fur
nished by three of the Flour City's fa
vorite musicians. The rich, full voice
of Miss May collected together the
party from the parlors and the ordinary,
and awoke the whole house with its
clear sweet tones. The young
lady was enthusiastically encored
and the second solo was
equally well received. Mr. Ferguson,
lately of Chicago, delighied his listeners
with his rich voice in a splendid solo.
Miss McKay, always a favorite among
Minneapolis people, was received most
graciously, and gave not the least cause
for disappointment. It was purely a
social affair and was in every
way a most complete success.

"THE LEADER."
Gellerup's Play Presented at the
Hennepin Avenue.
The production of "The Leader,"
which the gifted and fiery Fritz Geller
up is supposed to have. evolved out of
his innermost consciousness, was
witnessed by a small audience
at the Hennepin Avenue theater
last evening. The piece was announced
to be a melodrama, but a careful diag
nosis of the presentation showed that
the comedy element predominated,
with dark streaks of tragedy permeat
ing it. The event had not been well
advertised, and only a few enjoyed the
treat of a startling innovation
from the dramatic methods of
the day. The play deals with
the adventures of " Pio Leander," who
leads a mob of 'evicted tenants, shoots
his girl's father, escapes to America, re
turns and marries her, all in four acts
and thirteen scenes of a varied nature,
: in which mob violence of a consumptive
nature behind the scenes entered
largely. Fritz himself appeared as
Leander, and'his make-up resembled a
cross between a Chinaman aud a cow
i boy. _______
; When he took charge
of the "wild mob with
out" his passion was
something terrible to be
hold, and if his voice
had been equal to the
emergency he would
doubtless have ex
pressed himself forcibly
.in language that might
I have been understood,
but which, because of
his defective delivery,
was unintelligible. Aft
erward, on learning that
his friend had sacrificed himself and
died in his stead, his anguish knew no
bounds, and the - sym
pathy of the audience^
was aroused for the*'
evident distress he felt
over having escaped
death. Miss Rita Booth
as "Camille" was badly
handicapped, but man-,
aged to live through tht(
performance. H. Guy
Woodward, the come
dian, made a desperate,
effort to be humorous
and escape the appropriateness of his
middle name, and succeeded partially.

can return to the walks of private
life without injuring the dramatic pro
fession irreparably. It is an act of
mercy to the remainder of the cast to
omit any mention of the manner in
which they acquitted themselves.

depends the question as to whether the "
play will be again presented to-night.
EVERY-DAY SHOWS.
The Grand opera house was packed
from pit to dome, on the occasion of the
first ' appearance of the Boston Howard
Athenreum Star Specialty company.
From the rising of the curtain unto the
going down thereof there was not a
moment's cessation of pure comedy and
genuine fun. The audience, made up of
representative people, was enthusiastic
in recognition of merit, and recalls
were frequent. Among the artists de
serving of special mention are the
Arabs in their* athletic exhibition.
Wood and Shepard contributed a laugh
able musical sketch, and Paul Cinque
valli, the equilibrist.did some most won
derful work. The pretty Irwin sisters
appeared in a special act, and James
Hoey made a characteristic negro ■
speech. Ida Heath, a young miss of
fifteen, gave some of the most wonder
ful dancing ever seen here, Cinquevalli
did some 'good tumbling. The show
will finish out the week. Ida Heath
will give a reception to the little folks
at the matinee. ".
The pictorial play, "Terry the Swell,"
which is at the Hennepin next week, is
said to be a wild departure from the
usual theatrical rut, and among its in
novations is the. appearance of a tandem
team of three horses on the stage.
The production of "After Dark," by
the Webster-Brady company, will be
one of the greatet scenic and mechan
ical sensations seen here in a long time,
it is claimed. A genuine surprise will
be given in act I. The sale of seats

TWO BUSINESS CHANGES.
W. B. Folds, of Folds & Griffith,
and Seymour, Curtis & Co. Sell
Out.
A telegram from New York announces
that W. B. Folds, of the firm or Folds &
Griffith, the big carpet firm in the Syn
dicate block, had sold his interest in the
business to Eastern parties. Noth
ing was known about ' the • mat
ter at the store, and as Mr.
Folds is in New York, ami Mr. Griffith
is also out of the city, the report could
not be confirmed last evening. It is
known, however, that for- some days
past negotiations for such a sale have
been in progress, but yesterday morn
ing a letter was received by a friend of
Mr. Folds from that gentlemen, in
which it was stated that the deal had
fallen through.
We have this day sold our entire stock
of merchandise to Messrs. S. E. Olson
&Co.
The very sudden death of Mr. Sey
mour's father makes it imperative that
he remain permanentlj in Cleveland,
O. We therefore decided to close our
business and partnership affairs. Mr.
Curtis will pay all bills and collect ac
counts due the firm.
Seymour & Curtis.
Feb. 14, 1880.
The above announcement, which ap
peared in the papers yesterday, caused
more or less surprise in business circles,
and was the subject of considerable dis
cussion during the day. Just .what
amount was paid for the stock remains
a mystery, as none of the parties inter
ested would say much about the matter
further than to declare that everything
was all satisfactory. It is generally un
derstood that Mr. Olson paid a certain
per cent on the dollar for the stock,
which, it is said, will invoice about $75,
--000. Mr. Ingram, Mr. Glson's purchas
ing agent, will arrive in Minneapolis in
a few days to make the invoice. The
goods will probably be removed to Mr.
Olson's store, on lower Nicollet avenue.
A GOOD OUTPUT.
More Flour Made Than Any Week
Since November.
The Northwestern Miller, in its issue
of yesterday said: There were thir
teen mills which ground flour last week,
and they got out the largest output
since November, though under 100,
--000 barrels. The aggregate pro
duction' for the week (ending
Feb. 9) was 90,480 barrels—aver
aging 15,080 barrels daily— against 79,
--500 barrels the previous week, and 118.
--100 barrels for the corresponding time
in 1888. The increase was largely due
to a 2,500-barrel mill being placed in the
operative list with steam power, while
several other mills of the same class
added to their product some, the gain
in the aggregate being quite material.
There were twelve mills in operation
to-day, and, as they are enjoying a
pretty fair water power, the week's out
put gives promise of equaling that of a
week ago. They were making at the
rate of 17,000 barrels daily, but all did
not start up Monday morning. The
higher wheat markets have stimulated
the flour trade to a considerable extent,
and up to last evening there had been
pretty heavy sales.
SEEN IN MINNEAPOLIS.
"Gen." Ward Reported in the
Flour City a Short Time Since.
The report that "Gen." A. B. Ward,
the gentleman who left Grand Forks
under a cloud, had doubled on his trail
after going to Winnipeg, and came back
over the Canadian Pacific to Crookston
the next morning. Is probably correct,
as a Globe representative, who knew
Ward well at Grand Forks, is certain
that he saw him coming into Minneap
olis on the Milwaukee short line train,
which left St. Pan! at 5 o'clock.
The general had his beard shaved off,
and wore only small side whiskers,
which he had dyed red. He wore new
pantaloons, a black astrachan turban,
and a black chinchilla overcoat, trimmed
with astrachan, such a coat as was re
ported missing at the same time that
the "general" left Grand Forks. The
police were furnished with this descrip
tion, but as no instructions for his ar
rest have been received it is not prob
able that any great effort will be made
to find him; "^y^S
A DISGRACEFUL FIGHT.
A Liveryman, an Architect and
a Hacker "Scrap" at the Nicol
let House.
The Nicollet house was the scene of a
disgraceful row last evening, in which
Mr. Haley, the young architect,
"Shorty" Bessinger, a hack
driver, a member of a livery firm,
The liveryman and Bessenger were
standing in the lobby of the hotel when
Haley entered. The two men began
questioning him about a bill of $12.50 he
could or would not pay. Words ran
high, and finally Bessenger attacked
Haley from the rear while the liveryman
a front assault. A large-sized melee
followed. Finally Haley escaped and
rushed into the billiard room, followed
by the liveryman and Shorty. Another
encounter took place in there. After a
wild and thrilling battle .of some min
utes Haley made his escape, and, dash
ing out of'the hotel, fled up the street
as fast as he could go.
A Commercial Club.
C. H. Pratt has been securing signa
tures of Minneapolis business men and
Thomas Cochran of those of St. Paul
who will agree ,to help form a Twin
City commercial club. A number of
the' prominent men of both cities have
already consented to aid in the move
ment. It is thought that a few conces
sions can be made by both cities through
such au organization for their mutual
improvement. It is : suggested that
through the instrumentality of such a
club the midway district can be im
proved and the capitol question settled.'
A City Wolf Hunt.
: After a long chase yesterday a party
of hunters shot another wolf out in the
suburbs, between the Lake of the Isles
and Lake Calhoun. Jack Bassett was
the man who sent a bullet : through the '
wolf's head. It was a fine specimen,
and drew quite a crowd about the sleigh
in which the boys brought it to town,
when they stopped up in front of Lum
ber exchange. . y\
80,000 VALENTINES. y
The Number Which Passed Through
the Postoffice Yesterday.
GOING OUT OF STYLE.
Children Chiefly Observe the Day, To
gether With the Scandinavian
Element.
The handlers of the mails yesterday
received from out of town \ 20,000 valeni
tines. An equally large number was
sent by the devotees of the Saint within
the city to be delivered without its lim
its. In the city department it is esti
mated that there was a number quite as
large. This makes 60,000 messages of
love handled by the Minneapolis post
office, and the air of. the office was fairly
renitent with the escaping incense of
Cupid. ■ ". • '
"Dan" Ahem, superintendent of the
mails, says that the load is lighter this
year than previously.
"A few years ago," he said, "all the
young ladies and gentlemen took the
day as especially their own and flooded
the mails. The custom has been dtop
ping off year by year till now there are
few devotees except among the chil
dren. -The Scandinavians form a large
part of the valentine senders this year,
I can tell by the names. There are
among the thousands many elaborate
packages. Very few comic valentines
have been sent as yet; we always catch
them late in the evening or the day
after Valentine's day. There are hun
dreds of the comic valentines in their
yellow envelopes, that will go traveling
back and forth for a week or two with
out being opened. We never expect to
rest with one day when St. Valentine
calls on us. It always lasts a week or
two. Not only do the valentines crowd
the mails but there have been an un
usually large number of pink tinted,
perfumed envelopes directed with great
prescision. Probably the custom is
changing and those who have fallen
a victim of Cupid are writing their own
valentiues."
Calls on a number of the dealers in
valentines shows that the custom is
really declining. They all testify to
the fact that the sales have been less
this year than last and that last year
they were smaller than the year before.
"Who have been the purchasers?"
said a lady, behind a collection of
Prang's most beautiful designs, on
being approached on the subject. "On,
mostly boys and girls; the young people
don't resort to it as they used to. lam
afraid the old - saint is going out of.
fashion, and yet 1 suppose when the
custom has about died out and people
are beginning to forget about it some
circumstance will bring it back again
when you and v 1 are grey beaded and
the youths and maidens of the twentieth
century will revel in a new custom and
pity their poor grandparents who had
nothing pretty in their day. There
have been a good many, fathers and
mothers and older sisters in to-day who
had been brought to remember that it
was St. Valentine's day by the children
wondering if they were going to get any
valentines." . •

At home is a tower of strength abroad.
This is fully verified by the history of
Hood's Sarsaparilla, which has a reputa

whole neighborhoods are taking it at the
same time, and the druggists of Lowell
say they sell more of Hood's Sarsaparilla
than of all other Sarsaparillas or blood
purifiers. The same wonderful success is
