COLISEUM WORKERS BUSY

SUGGESTED THAT CITIZENS OIVEJ
CXE DAY'S FOR AI'DI
TORTI I'i?OJECT
FUND CAN EE EiiISED QUICKLY
Valentine Heinrich Makes Sugrgcs.
. tion Which Is Enthusiastically
Hailed l>y Committee at
Yesterday*s Meeting-.
"I worked one day for the coliseum
did you?"
This is the latest and most approved
plan for raising the funds necessary for
the erection of a coliseum for St. Paul.
Briefly the plan is to set aside a day,
preferably in May, on which every man,
woman and child in the city, will turn in
his or her days wages to the coliseum
fund.
The idea was presented to the execu
tive committee at the meeeting held yes
terday afternoon in the Commercial
club rooms by Valentine Heinrich. Mr.
Heinrich suggested that every person in
the city give one day's income and re
ceive in return a badge bearing the
words quoted above. The plan proposes
to secure the interest of every organi
zation in the city, fraternal, labor and
the like and to have them handle wie
funds frcm the members of each organi
zation. The city is to be thoroughly
canvassed and every person from the
highest to the lowest is to toe asked to
give up the proceeds of one day's labor
for the coliseum.
J. J. Mahan wrote to' tlie committee
from St. Louis, making practica^y the
same suggestion as Mr. Heinrich. '±^8
committee received them enthusiastlcalr
ly. and the members expressed them
selves as feeling confident that the de
sired funds could be raised in this man
ner in almost one day.
The committee appointed to draft
articles of incorporation presented the re
sult of its labors, which was adopted.
The articles provide that the association
shall be known as the St. Paul Colliseum
association. The aim of the asssociation,
as denned in tne articles, is to erect and
maintain a building suitable for the ac
commodation of conventions 1, expositions,
agricultural and horticultural displays,
fairs, exhibitions, banquets, conceits and
all lawful methods of public entertain
ment.
Disposition of Receipts.
The association is given the power to
purchase real estate for the site and to
receive donations, but none of the money
received is to be used for another pur
pose than the erection and equipment of
a coliseum. The amount of capital stock
is set down as $10,000 at $1 a share, wmch
is to be paid upon call in installments
of 25 cents per share. No person is to be
allowed to own more than 100 shares and
no person can cast more votes than
allowed for this number.
The board of directors is to consist of
twenty-six members, one-half of "whom
are to be elected or one year, and one
half for two years. The directors are to
elect a president, first, second and third
vice presidents, a secretary and treas
urer, none of which are to receive com
pensation excepc the secretary.
Tne officers and directors of the asso
ciation are prohibited from ever having
the power to mortgage the property of
the association or to place thereon a
trust bond or lien. The limit of in
debtedness of the association is $10,000.
Provision is made that in case the as
sociation should decide to wind up its
affairs, all the money on hand, after the
indebtedness is paid, shall revert to the
public library.
The report of the subcommittee favored
the appointment of different committees,
the chairman of the executive committee

lect the membership of their own com
mittees. Chairman C. B. Bowlby ap

CHAMBER FAVORS IT
AUDITORIUM PROJECT CAME BE
FORE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
YESTERDAY
TO BE DISCUSSED NEXT WEEK
Resolution Introduced by Kuss
Clarke Referred to Committee
on Municipal Affairs for
Report.
The board of directors of the Chamber
of Commerce went on record yesterday
as being in favor of the erection of an
auditorium for St. Paul. There were but
fourteen members of the board present,
and they took the matter up in a cau
tious manner, not caring to take any
definite position as long as there were
not more present. The sentiment express
ed on all (sides was that an auditorium
was one of the greatest needs of the city,
and that in not having one the city was
a little behind.
The matter of the coliseum was brought
to the attention of the board of directors
through the reading of the report of the
committee that went to Kansas City and
Omaha. The report, which has been
printed in full in Th c G 1 ob c, was read
to the directors by L. W. Corning, who
was chairman of the committee.
In order to find out how the directors
stood on the proposition, Ross Clark in
troduced a resolution to the effect that
the Chamber of Commerce was in ac
cord with the 'proposition to erect an
auditorium for the city, and that the
building should be erected as soon es
the funds necessary for the purpose had
been raised.
Maj. Espy thought the resolution in
troduced by Mr. Clark was not emphatic
enough for the occasion, as in his opin
ion the chamber should go on record as
■being enthusiastically in favor of an au
ditorium. In his arguments in behuif of
a more pronounced stand he pointed out
that St. Louis and other cities had re
ceived great benefits from their audi
torium, which more than repaid the orig
inal cost of construction. He touched
upon the fact in a sarcastic vein, that al
ready there had been three cornerstones
laid in this city with this end in view,
and these had been abandoned. He
thought that it was useless to start un
less St. Paul had made its mind up to
carry the project through to a succe*s§ful
finish.
Thomas Coohrane reiterated the state
ment of Siaj. Espy regard public opinion.
He said that the only way possible fo se
cure the desired auditorium was to have
it backed up by vigorous and aggressive
action on the part of the citizen?. He
had no doubt that if that was secured
there would be little difficulty found in
building the coliseum. W. B. Dorr did
not think the chamber could go any fur
ther at the time than the resolution of
fered by Mr. Clark, and he stated that
in his belief it covered the ground as
fully as was necessary for the time be
ing.
Gen. J. B. Sanborn proposed an amc-nd
ment which provided that the funds lo be
raised for the building should be secured
by subscription and entertainments, and
not by taxation. Otherwise, he thought,
trre resolution was satisfactory. His
amendment was attached after some de
bate.
The whole matter was finally referred
to the committee on municipal affairs
with instructions to report at the next
meeting, when the auditorium will be
made a special order of business ana
discussed before the entire chamber. An
invitation will be extended to the general
auditorium committee to be present to
enlighten members of the chamber on
any point which they do not understand.
NEWSPAPER MEN WORK
COMMITTEES REPORT PROGRES!
OX PLANS FOR EXTERTAIXMEXT.
The newspaper men of St. Paul held
their second meeting yesterday after
noon, in the Commercial club rooms, for
the purpose of devising means to help
raise the funds for the coliseum. The
different committees appointed to ar
range the preliminary details made par
tial repots and were given further time
to finish their work. The newspaper
men have in mind an entertainment, or
a series of entertainments, to be given
in the near future, the net proceeds of
which are to be turned over to the coli
seum committee.
The chairmen; of the different commit
tees yesterday reported on several plans
for the consideration of the committee of
the whole, and there was considerable
discussion indulged in. It was finally de
cided to meet again at the call of the
chairman, Smith B. Hall, when the dif
ferent committees will have settled on j
their plans.
BIDS FOR SPRINKLING

Next month bids will be opened' by - the
boar<l of public work 3 for the sprink
linK of the several districts arranged
by the city council. The work will rep
resent an expenditure of $40,000.
Au odd feature of the whole thing 5s
that those who did the i work last year
ape still waiting for a goodly portion of
tlieir pay, not an estimate having been
audited by the comptroller sine<> last
August. Some of the 'estimates are be
ing held up by the city, engineer pend
ing a settlement of the differenc 23 be
tween the contractors and the city over
a forced curtailment of the sprinkling
season, but the „ others have been in the
handa of the comptroller for several
mci;ths and have rot been' acted upon
yet. The contractors say the city owes
them about $12,0©0, and from present
prospects will still be . owing it to th«m
for two months^to come. City Engineer
Claitssen says ha will.send the estimates
in his possession to - the ' coui« 1 '*ext

STATE EXPECTED IT
OFFICIALS DISAPPOINTED, BUT SOT
SURPRISED, BY SUPREME
COURT DECISION
VAN SANT ISSUES STATEMENT
Says State Will Proceed at Once in
Some Form or —Doug-
las Awaiting Text of
■■-' ■■._■■••■ Decision."
News of the decision of the United
States supreme court was received at the
state capitol yesterday morning, shortly
tefore noon, and immediately afterwards
the governor, Attorney General Douglas,
Gen. Wilson and M. D. Munn held a con
ference in the attorney. general's office
to discuss the matter.
While the state officials were naturally
\.cry much disappointed they have for
several days been preparing for unfa
vorable news and were not particularly
surprised. The governor immediately
called -his stenographer,- and dictated the
following statement for the comfort of
the faithful:
"It cannot ib 3 stated positiv?ly what
will ba the method of procedure until the
full text of the decision of the supreme
court on the question of jurisdiction has
been studied. The state will proceed in
some form at once, and will exhaust
every means in its* power to enforce its
laws and protect its rights."
The forthcoming action of Attorney
General Knox, reported several days ago,
gave the state officials more hope, and
because of that balm the decision of the
court was not so severe a blow as it
might otherwise have been.
Attorney General Douglas would say
little beyond indorsing the statement of
the governor. He said the decision in
no way touched upon the merits of the
case. He said:
"The court "may have denied jurisdiction
en one of two grounds; either on the
ground that the statute violated is a
penal statute or on the ground of non
joinder of parties. If the first ground
is taken, the action will be brought in
the state's courts. If the second ground
was taken, it may be brought in either
the state court or the federal court of this
district. It may come either in the form
of a quo warranto or an injunction. The
people may be sure, however, that their
rights will be protected, and the federal
courts will assume jurisdiction in the suit
to be 'brought by Attorney General
Knox."
The attorney general will receive a
copy of the supreme court's decision
within a few days, and then the future
course of action will be determined.
ECGS TAKE A TUMBLE
WARM WEATHER CAUSES A DROP
OF OVER THIRTY
PER CENT
PRICE NOW NINETEEN CENTS
Commission Men, Flooded by Ij«rg-e
Shipments, Had to Saerifle
Former < 'onsig-nniciits
at a Loss.
The lowly hen is busy, so busy in tact
that the fruits of her industry were yes
terday quoted on 'change at 19 cents a
dozen, a drop of over 7 cents from the
day previous. Today Should s«e a
further fall and if the present warm
spell continues, a general figure of 15
cents straight before the week is finished.
To the dealer in eggs yesterday was a
dark day on 'change and more than one
merchant along commission row found
himself on the short side of the ledger in
consequence. Eggs poured into the city
and stocks purchased at fancy prices had
to be sacrificed in order to take care of
them. A week ago 27 and even 30 cents
a dozen was considered a fair price and
at these figures some heavy investments
were made, tfie purchasers banking on
a rate that would reimburse them hand
somely for their foresight and trouble.
The crash is attributed by the com

Ordinarily the cold storage product is

CEIVES REPORTS FROM WARDS.
Another meeting of the citizens' non
partisan committee that is endeavoring
to secure representation for the business
men of the city in the council and as
sembly was held in the Endicott building
last night.
A number of ward committees reported,
recommending candidates to the execu
tive committee for indorsement, and now
the majority of these ward committees
have reported.
There has bean a slight misunderstand
ing previous to the last meeting in re
gard to indorsing candidates of each
party, but this was fully explained, and
the committee set to work.
A meeting will be called by the execu
tive committee, probably after the pri
maries, at which time that committee
will report upon candidates that it de
sires to indorse. The names reported
last night and at the previous meetings
were simply in the nature of a recom
mendation and are not final.

Two Bottles Cured Her.
One of a Thousand Nurses Who
Praise the Wonderful Work of
PAINE'S CELERY COMPOUND.
Misa Teresa Cartel, the beautiful Sis
ter who won so much credit by her un
tiring efforts in nursing the wounded
after the Maine explosion, is one of
more than a thousand nurses who have
testified to the wonderful results of ;
Paine's Celery Compound among their j
sick, debilitated and exhausted patients. |
Sister Cartel herself was cured of one [
of the most serious affections of the i
liver by only two bottles of this mar- j
velous restorative.
Paine's Celery Compound has accom
plished more in behalf of suffering hu- i
manity than any other discovery in the j
history of medical science. It hauj rescued j
from a sick bed thousands of despairing j
victims of disease. Men and women in '
all -walks of life have been permanently j
cured by its use. Old and young, the j
feeble and the infirm, praise its curative ■
powers. It is the one true nerve tonic, j
If taken in time, it never fails to restore ;
to activity weakened kidneys and a slug- j
gish liver. The body has been made foul j
and unhealthy with impure blood and bile i
that originate in a diseased liver. Cirrho- j
sis, jaundice, fatty degeneration, cancer
arwl dropsy often result from a diseased
liver. The appetite is impaired, the blood

Removal of Mad and Ice Will Cost
ijU.OOO More This Spring-
Than Is Generally
Alloiveil.
Instead of $6,000 which is required an
nually to remove the traces of winter to
the shape of filthy mud and rotted ice
this spring will see the amount swelled
to $10,000. The difference is the result of
the unusually warm weather which St.
Paul is now enjoying.
"This is a new experience to me," snict
City Engineer Claussen yesterday, "and
if it continues for the remainder of the
week, my street cleaning "Tund will be
touched for all of $4,000. This depart
ment will suffer, along in July and Au
gust in consequence, but it can't be help
ed."
Nearly fifty men and ten teams were
put to work yesterday removing mud and
ice in the Fourth ward, and while th^re
was some relief it was only temporary.
From the heavy grades there was a
constant stream of muddy water and
slime which ran down over the crossings
and required the constant attendance of
men with 'brooms and shovels.
The greatest trouble is experienced ry
the department in the securing of teams,
many refusing to work for the rate cf
fered, $3 per day. Men are also hard to
obtain.
Today the scraper will be put to work,
and if the warmth continues the rotted
ice will be removed entirely and the
streets flushed. Not a man was at work
Saturday and Sunday, and to this fact is
attributed the difficulty experienced yes
terday in keeping the crossings clean.
The accumulations were too much fcr
the force employed.

F. REESE'S SALOON.
The police are still investigating the
safe-breaking in F. Reese's saloon, i>->
East Seventh street, which occurred 1 i
Saturday night. The latest develop
ments in the case point to circurrf
which are suspicious. The door of th"
safe appears to have been lifted from
the hinges and not blown open by an
explosion, as was first thought. The
holes whioh were bored in the safe are
of such a nature and from such a di
rection as would be impossible to be
done while the door was on the safe
The money which was in the safe did
not all belong to the proprietor of the
saloon, but $700 of ft was advanced by
the North, Star Brewing company to
cash checks of railroad men who fre
<tiu>nt the saloon. The theory of the po
lice is that some person connected with
the sa.loon broke open the safe to got
the money belonging to the brewing com
pany.
