the out-of-work benefits had not been
disposed <>f, and would not be decided un
til after a referendum vote on the subject
by all the local unions. The sum of $75
was allowed the delegate for his eight
days' expenses ln attendance at the con
ventlon.
The annual report of General Secretary

tional sick and death benefit fund showed

ing the cost of Eastern strikes, and the

Astinmed of Minnesota.
Tlie following letter commenting on the
O'Neil] anti-boycott bill has been received
by W. 11. Hamilton, president of the
building trades council and member of
the stonecutters' union, from General
Secretary James F. McHugh, of the in
ternational stonecutters' union.
"Thank you kindly for copies of anti
boycott bills; Minnesota is my native
state and 1 feel like claiming Kalamazoo,
Peoria, Timbuctoo or any old place for
my home when I read the bills and grasp
the depths of devilishness ln which they
ftiv sunk. The working people cannot
d< pend on legislation to protect their in
terest, they must stick to their unions,
and put union men ln the legislative
halls, and ln congress; until then they
can only expect such legislation as they
are getting at the hands of the Minne
sota men. The eight hour bill was
smothered in the senate during the lasf
days of congress.
"Pleased to report that I have been
able to settle sixteen death claims of
$100 each since the Ist of February, and
if the men keep clearing their cards there
will be money to pay all the others in a
little while. Glad to say that the out
look for work the coming summer ls very
bright, for I get favorable reports from
all over the country, and I sincerely trust

WEEK IN MUSIC.
The concert to be given Monday night,
March 27, ln the People's church, which
ls the next In the Library-Schubert club
series, will no doubt be the largest and
most artistic of any of its predecessors.
Of Ffrangcon Davles the Eastern Dally
Argus says:
"Mr. Ffrangcon Davles that superb and
exciting artist, came as near perfection
as any one may hope to hear ln a life
time. Representative of the best sing
ing traditions, broad and noble in tone,
austerely beautiful In vocalization, Mr.
Ffrangcen Davles shows also flne sincer
ity of purpose, dramatic feeling and in
telligent grasp. He ls the compeer of
Santley at his best. He ls a revelation
ln the grand style of oratorio singing; a
model to pattern after, and to hear the
title role of Elijah sung by the acknowl
edged Interpreter living is the occasion
of a life time."
But, ln addition to Davles, appears
Monday evening another star In whom
St. Paul Is much interested. That Is
Mme. De Wolf.
The Schubert club chorus mid orches
tra, who also appear in this concert,
will appear to probably better advan
tage than any chorus that has appeared
ln the city. Reserved seats can be had
at Howard, Farwell & Co.'s.

The Ellis Grand Opera company comes
to the Metropolitan Monday, Tuiesday
and Wednesday, April 10, 11 and 12. With
Melba, Gadskl, Zelie de Lussan and oth
er great operatic artists, the organiza
tion ls undoubtedly the strongest ever
seen ln the Northwest, and It ls a mat
ter of congratulation that It has been
secured for the Twin Cities. In addition
to Melba, De Lussan and Gadskl, the
roster of the company Includes such
names as Alvarez, Van Cauteren, De
Vrles, Bourflouesque, Mattfleld, Steh
mann, Van Hoose, Stury, Rains, Vivlanl,
De Sol and Bcnnard. It ls hardly nec
essary to say that only artists of ex
traordinary merit can find It possible to
become members of the Damrosch-EUls
company, even the chorus being com
posed of vocalists of the highest order.
The repertory of the company Includes
"The Barber of Seville," "Faust," "Car
men," "Romeo and Juliet," "Les Hugue
nots," "Lucia," "Siegfried," "Cavalle
ria RusticF.na" and "La Boheme." There
will be at least three, and in all proba
bility four, performances in this city. At
the present time it ls not possible to an
nounce th* plays that will be presented,
but this announcement will be made
within a day or two. It is likely that a
special sale of season tickets, at a re
duced rate, will be opened Friday of this
week, but these details cannot be an
nounced positively until the arrival of
the business manager of the Damrosch-
Ellis company, who ls now on his way
to this city.

There are no cobwebs on Sousa's pro
grammes nor on- his concerts, and he
keeps an eye on them to see^that there is
not. It is an easy 'thing, (og .a ooncert
master to allow a. vast ajnflunt of dry
dust from past periods to accumulate on
THE ST. PAUL GLOBE, SUNDAY, MARCH, 26, 1899.
his concert bills, and too much dust ls
a tiresome thing. Too much "adagio"
doesn't contribute to exuberant spirits."
Most persons go to a concert to be en
tertained by it, not to study symphony
or concerto, and they like best that which
is inspiring, brilliant, buoyant, joyful and
oxhileratlng, with enough of the emo
tional to make hard sauce for the other.
These are just what Sousa gives, there
fore Sousa's concerts are as bright and
cheering as it is possible to make them.
Sousa Is never so delighted as when
delighting an audience, and It ls an al
most unheard-of thing for his audience
not to make demonstrations of delight.
The box offlce ls the surest barometer in
the world as showing whether or not a
public entertainer richly deserves the
other evidences ln the auditorium. A
lady said to him ln Boston: "If plaudits
were measured by dollars, you would be
one of the richest men ln America, Mr.
Sousa." That's it. Sousa receives both
plaudits and dollars from the public lav
ishly, because he serves the public the
very music It likes best and enjoys most.
Sousa. will give two concerts at the Met
ropolitan Sunday next, April 2.

WANT MORE PAY.
Ramsey Commissioners Think They
Deserve Higher Salaries.
The bill pending before the legislature
having ln view an increase In compensa
tion of the county commissioners of
Ramsey county is creating no end of Ill
feeling ln court house circles between the
friends and opponents of the measure.
The members of the county board and
their friends insist that the salary of $300
per year ls not sufficient for the labor
performed, especially as the perquisites
attached to the position are not numer
ous, and yesterday two of the members
stated that frequently they had to neg
lect their business for days, and that
while out in the country they had to pay
for their meals, and not even car fare ls
allowed.
It was stated yesterday that Mayor
Kiefer, chairman of the board, was op
posed to the increase, and when seen by
a Globe reporter he said:
"I certainly do not favor an Increase ln
salaries at this time. Taxes are already
toojiigh, and the city and county are not
ln a condition to stand for increased bur
dens in this direction. Therefore I think
no good or patriotic citizen or public ser
vant should expect or ask for increased
pay."
Receipts Over $2,300 Per Dfcy.
During 1898 receipts for ticket sales at
St. Paul Union depot were over $847,000
representing 284,911 tickets, and in num
ber of tickets and in amount of receipts,
The North-Western Line— C, St. P M
& O. Railway— leads all others. The same
can be said of the train service of this
line It leads them all. The "North-
Western Limited" between the Twin
Cities and Chicago is the finest train ever
built, and has been taken as the standard
although at present it has electric light
ing features not possessed by any other
trains, and after an examination of this
train from engine to rear car, and a
comparison with others, you will admit
that everything is as advertised.

Our answer is that a person with an
unnatural quantity of flesh will lose a
portion of it, and the individual who
lacks a proper amount of flesh will gain
a proportion; in other words, an equi
librium will be set up, such as Nature
intends, if the individual uses the prop

we know of no more natural, energizing

We are gratified beyond expression at our phenomenal success in business.
The Immense volume of business we did the past year has warranted us in chop
ping oft another chunk from our usual percentage of profit, and now, not only
are we enabled to buy at least 25 per cent cheaper than any exclusive retailer,
caused by our wholesale department enabling us to buy of the largest wholesale
manufacturers, but our percentage of cost to do business Is much smaller than
tnat of any other store in the state, which two Important factors enable us to
name prices unapproachable by any other store in this country. Wo are constant
ly studying every available means ln existence that may aid ub ln naming the
lowest prices on earth. That we have attained the greatest height of value-giving
ever known is becoming more and more apparent and attested to by the Immense

rested later. Being unable to prove any
thing against him nothing was given out
• concerning the arrest until yesterday af
ternoon. It now appears that Kelly is
the ringleader of a gang of thieves and
that his arrest is an Important move.
The two detectives visited Kelly in his
cell yesterday forenoon and put him
through a sweating process. He held out
for a while, but afterwards confessed to
disposing of stolen goods here and offered
to accompany the officers to the places
where he had sold articles.
M. F. Kuhn's jewelry store, 274 East
Seventh street, was the flrst place visited,
and a gold breastpin was found. A fob
chain and turquoise ring had also been
disposed of there. Kuhn pays no license
and made no report to the central sta
tion officers and has laid himself liable
to arrest for receiving stolen property.
A lady's gold watch was found at L.
Maschlnski's, 139 East Third street, which
had been bought from Kelly on Friday
for $2.50. At Lilliam Marks, 186 East
Seventh street, a silver watch and com
pass in a case were found. William Dlp
po, of 61 East Seventh street, showed a
marquise ring which he had bought for
$1.50 from Kelly. A gold brooch was also
found at 322 Jackson street.
All the property found to have been

COMPANY DISCHARGED HIM.
Now Patrick J. Egan gnes His Form
er Employer for $10,000.
Patrick J. Egan, who, according to his
complaint, has been a very unfortunate
man, yesterday commenced an action
against the Minneapolis & St. Louis Rail
way company to recover $10,000. The
plaintiff alleges that while working as a
section hand in the employ of the road, ln
1885, he fell against a hand car that he
was pushing on an icy track and de
stroyed the use of his right eye. A year
later, while working near Fort Dodge, he
says, he was given a chisel to cut a bar
of steel, but that the chisel was defective
and a chip flew Into his left eye, which
was permanently injured. At the time
he alleges that he entered Into an agree
ment with the road to begin no suit, In
consideration of a life job as flagman and
gatekeeper, at a salary of $40 per month.
He was put at work at the Como avenue
crossing, but has been summarily dis
charged. He says he ls 51 years old, and
has reasonable expectations of living an
other twenty years. Judge Willis ls the
attorney.

boundary of Mexico through Guatemala,
Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa
Rica and the Isthmus of Panama.
