The joint legislative committee of the
County Auditors' and County Treasur
ers' association, consisting of five mem
bers of each body, held a joint meeting
in County Auditor Johnson's office at 2
o'clock yesterday afternoon. No definite
steps were taken, however, as it was
deemed best not to do anything until
they had some money to pay the ex
penses of going ahead to secure the legis
lation wanted by them. J. L. Meyer,
treasurer of Morrison county, was elect
ed chairman; E.- J. Miller, auditor of
Big Stone county, secretary; Charles _!•'.
Serline, treasurer of Serline count*,

Questions in regard to securing better
laws governing the . work' of county
auditors and treasurers were discussed'
for a few minutes. It was decided that
in order to do the work before them in
an effective way county auditors and,
treasurers in the state would be asked
to contribute $2 each. It was also decided
to pay the secretary of the committee
something, as he would have a great
deal of work on his hands in the me of
correspondence and other matters. The"
joint committee will meet again In the
near future. -.7:777'- -

plans are prepared BY * city
BUILDING INSPECTOR-:
Building Inspector Haas yesterday fur-'
nished Dr. Ohage a sketch of the plans
that he is preparing for the proposed
addition to the public baths on Harriet
island.
The council has set aside $10,000 for this
purpose, but the plans as prepared by
the building inspector only call for ail
expenditure of about $7,50:). The exten
sion will be paced on the west side of
the present building, and will be 220 feet
long and 22 feet wide. Included will be
a pavilion and band stand 100 by 40 feet.
The whole will be surmounted by a tower
of handsome design. The capacity of the.
baths, in the event that the addition is
built, will be doubled.
It may be necessary to do some dredg
ing and to drive some piles in order to
maintain a clean pool and a fair stage
of water, but just now no arrangements
have been made for such.
Piles Cured Without the Knife.

GOOD BOOKS FOE CHILDREN.

Mceetlns' Cal: ft a sit School.
The children of the Grant school and
their parents, together with the teachers.
held a family reunion-last night in one

ton graced the occasion with his pres
ence, and at -the; close of. the even-ng's
programme spoke -a few encouraging
words of advice to the parents concern
ing the selection** of heading matter for
their children. He said, in part:
.''l. have been entertained by the speak
era before me and gathered a few scat
tering ideas thai "may do me good in the
future. I always like, these family me?t
ings, as it were,"'because they give par
ents the opportunity of becoming ac
quainted with thfc' teachers of their chil
dren, and vice versa;
"Most of the talk this evening has
been about books. I think great care
should be exercised in the selection of
books for children. Simple, healthy,
easily understood books- are the kind
you want. I remember when 1 was a
child I had 'Little Women' read to me. I
remember it as well as 1 rememl,?r any
thing from that time. It is no unirnpert
ant matter —this selection of books for
children—so keep iii mind that, «yh -<\ you
are going to buy a book for your little
girl -*or boy you have a chance to
better him or her mentally and morally.
Take advantage of thai chance." - . .
The superintendent then advised th.>
parents to buy the l>ooks of Longfellow,
Whlttier and -ethers of the standard
American poets or novelists.

PUBLIC EXAMINER POPE HAS ES
TABLISHED MANY RE
TOR 3IS
HIS BIENNIAL REPORT IS OUT
It Is in the Hands of the Governor
and Recounts. Work Done
in Last Two
Years.
Public Examiner Pope has completed
his biennial report. He has'forwarded
it to Gov. Lind, before sending it to the
printers. The report covers many type
written sheets and tells a number of in
teresting things..
Mr. Pope states in the beginning of
the report that it was early found, after
he came into office, that. there had been
a general neglect of the provisions of
the "accounting Act," chapter 2G9, Gen
eral Laws 1889, entitled, "An act to es
tablish a uniform system of accounting
for public funds in the state educational,
charitable and correctional institutions
and to appropriate miscellaneous re
ceipts for the use of said institutions."
Not a single institution was in accord
with the provisions of the act,- .and,,
while some had an intelligible and ac
curate system of accounting, others had
imperfect and faulty methods, and there
was no pretense of 'uniformity. Not a
single official of those who are required
by law to give bonds had on file a bond
which met the approval of the attorney
general for form and execution:
A uniform system of' 0 regis
ters ' and -orders, 1 cash ' books and
ledger accounts with" the sev
eral funds' appropriated by the state/
was prescribed and, with but one excep
tion, has been put into effect. The re
sult is that every superintendent, treas
urer and 'accounting officer has been
properly elected and legally bonded."
Their financial records are Kept on a
system which, while not conflicting with
the requirements of the board of correc
tions and charities is uniform and
intelligible, insuring accuracy and sim
plicity, while effecting a mateiial saving
in clerical labor.
If, hereafter, liabilities shall be in
curred in excess of the amounts appro
priated, it will not be for the lack of
knowledge on the part of officials or
managing boards. Large sums of
money heretofore held out, without war
rant of law, have been transferred to the
slate treasury. The duties of the in
stitution treasurers have bsen confined
to the limits prescribed by section 3 of
the accounting act, and they have been
relieved from keeping the accounts and
records of the institutions, which work
is now performed by the accounting of
ficers, as "by law required..
Following precedents and, in some
cases, suggestions from the public ex
aminer's department, the managing
boards of state institutions have, as a
rule, elected banks as institution treas
urers. Mr. Pope has suggested time
and time again that, wherever practica
ble, state banks should be chosen as in
stitution treasurers, but only one in
stitution has so far adopted the sugges
tion. State banks should be chosen be
cause they are created and are incor
porated under the state laws, because
they are specially under the supervision
of a department of the state, maintained
for the purpose of -securing for the state
and for all depositors accurate knowl
edge of their financial condition, because
all deposits of state funds'in state' banks
are, by virtue of provisions of law. made
preferred claims.
The regents of the University of Min
nesota selected a state bank as insti
tution treasurer. The other institutions
selected national banks.

the twelve-year sentence of Carl Kreft
was commuted to ten years, which will
enable the board to parole him. Kreft
was sentenced from Martin county Nov.
29, 1836. He was convicted for man
slaughter in the second degree.
John Quinn, Minneapolis, was given a
conditional pardon. The conditions are
that he forever refrain from the use of
intoxicating liquors, and that he report
to the state prison, as do parole prison
ers. Quinn was sentenced from Hen
nepin county, Jan. 28, 1894, to state prison
for twenty-two and one-half years for
assault in the first degree, robbery in the
first degree and escaping from custody.

been under consideration for some time,
was further considered yesterday, but
nothing was done. Pinal action may.
soon be taken. Lenz was sentenced
from Blue Farth county, April 17, 1890,
to be hung. His sentence was commuted
by Gov. Merriam May 2, 1891, to impris
onment for life. He was convicted of

COURT ROOM WAS CROWDED
Seven of the iNlne.-Prisoners Indict
ed by Grand Jury Pleaded
Guilty When Ar
... „.. ■-• ■ jijjiined.-'
Frank,H. Hamilton was arraigned be
fore. Judge Simpson yesterday morning
on the charge-of murder in the first de
gree. 7 -■ .
Hamilton gave rib" need' to the crowd
and when his name was called walked
leisurely to the clerk's desk. He listened
calmly while the clerk read the indict
ment couched in its legal language and
reciting that ■rh * Safid Frank H. Ham
ilton had "feloniously, wrongfully and
knowingly, with a weapon commonly
known as a knife, by stabbing, cutting
and thrusting, etc., caused the death of
Leonard R. Day against the peace and
dignity of the state and the statutes in
such case made and provided." And
there was much more. -
"Are you guilty or not guilty?" in
quired Clerk Royce after completing the
reading of the document.
Hamilton, who had listened quietly,
sail! nothing, but Robert L. Penney has
tened to ask for leave to hold Hamilton's
plea until Dec. 20.
This was satisfactory ~ to County At
torney Reed, and Mr. Hamilton will be
allowed until next Thursday to enter a
plea. Hi has,"-of course, no intention of
pleading guilty, but it is doubtless Mr.
Penney's-purpose to examine the docu
ment very carefully with the object of
finding some flaws which will permit him
I to demur to the indictment.
! Fred 11. Boardman, who will have the
responsibility of trying the Hamilton
I case, was an interested spectator at the
i proceedings.
After the Hamilton arraignment a
I large number of jail piiscneis wei«
| brought forward to listen to the in- j
dictments. Seven cf the nine arraigned
! promptly pleaded guilty. This was !
gratifying for Mr. Boardman, as it would ;
undoubtedly fail to his lot to try all in
case the men decided to tight.
The one who attracted most attention
was Henry Sherman, who _._hot Belie
! Benson while in a fit of jealous anger.
i He pleaded guilty, but insisted on having
j an attorney.
\ .The two men who intend to make the
, state prove the accusations of the grand
i jury were George Donald, arrested for
[attempting to rob Edgar C. Green, and
Joseph Felick,.accused of robbing Joseph
I-,. Laurler of £.5. The trials of these
men were set for Dec. 17.
The following pleaded guilty: John i
Anderson to burglary in the third desrree
for his attempt en the Huh Clo.hi.ig
; stores Charles Craig and William M.
: Gilman, burglary in the third degree:
• Andrew McCad (colored), grand larceny .
'• in the second degree for stealing Irving '
j W. Wyman's trunk containing personal*
! effects worth $87; Edward William-;
grand larceny in second decree, fir steal- j
ing a revolver and other property from
John O'Brien at 253 First avenue south-,
I William D. Congdon. grand larceny in
the first degree fur embezzling $1,2C6 frcm
the Metropolitan Music company.
HOLD THE SAME OPINION.
The Ministers ! Indorse Ireland's
Stand on the Canteen.
Several Minnesota ministers were inter
j viewed yesterday upon Archbishop Ire- '
I land's defense of the army canteen before
I a congressional committee in Washing- j
j ton. The inquiry resulted in many cx
i pressions of approval and requests that
I the speaker be not quoted for fear of pos- j
: sible opposition on the. part of m_-mbjrs j
of their congregations.
In the main they expressed the opinion i
! that they believed the St. Paul prelate •
i knew whereof he spoke, and many coin- i
j cided with his statement that " t is u-e- |
less to try to prohibit absolutely the v c .
of liquor. If you tsy to be too severe and
do away with it altogether in the a:ni7,
the men will find it in ways that are ille
gal and harmful."

RECORD IN CITY BUILDINS
THERE WERE MA XV PERMITS
LAST YEAR AT SMALL COST.
While building operations In St. Paul
the present year have not been as ac
tive as previous years, in as far as the
amount expended is concerned, yet the;
number of permits issued by the building
inspector will be greater in number.
Bast year the amount expended iii
building operations in St. Paul was
$2,597,488, while the amount this year will
reach a figure in excess of this. Build
ing permits for the erection of cottages
and minor repairs to present structures
have been numerous and to this is cred
ited the increase in the number over last
year.
December, it is thought, will yet see
the issuance of some heavy permits,
among the number scheduled to expand
