id ST. PAUL TODAY WILL WELCOME THE ODD FELLOWS Session of Grand Lodge of State Has Important Changes to Consider Among Them Re duction of Initiation Fee. Several important amendments to the constitution of the grand and sub ordinate lodges of the Odd Fellows in Minnesota will be considered by the grand lodge of that order, which meets in St. Paul beginning today. Perhaps the most iruportant is the reduction in the initiatory and degree fee, the figure under the anvendment being reduced from $5 to $2. This price is to apply in the case of all degrees and is to be payable on application for admittance. The present figure, it is claimed, greatly handicaps the advance of the order. Another important amendment to the constitution is the change in the grand -3mF^-*^^^jJbßßßHpHß C. A. FOSNES. Retiring Grand Master of Grand Lodge I. O. O.

Nearly a score of other amendments are up for consideration, but those named will have the liveliest consideration. Over 400 delegates representative of the subordinate lodges throughout the state will be in St. Paul today, and their conferences will be held in the house of representatives of the state capitol until tu&,t>usiness of the grand lodge is fully completed.

UNION THREATENS TO TIE UP HUMBOLT Make a Protest on the Con* tract for Installing New Heating Plant. "Well, all we want to tell you fel lows is that there will be a tieup if you let that contract for the installation of the heating plant in the Humboldt school to the Allan Black company. He doesn't run a union shop," ex claimed the leader of the Bricklayers' union to the school board last nfght. "The bricklayers and the carpenters are with us on this matter," added the leader of the delegation from Union No. 9, who towered several inches in height above his fellow workers, "and we can make trouble. All we want now is that the work shall go to a fair shop and where St. Paul men are em ployed." It was somewhat of a ticklish prop osition that the board of school in spectors ran up against last night when they were suddenly confronted by a delegation from the local Steam fitters' union, but they were diplomat ically pulled through by President Hol man, who informed the delegation that the board could only do one thing and that was to acquiesce in the decision of the purchasing committee in award ing the contract to the lowest bidder. "Well, see that they employ union men and that they are from St. Paul," grumbled the leader of the delegation. "We pay a few taxes in this town." "Why certainly, rest assured on that point," answered President Holman. "We shall request as much of Mr. Black, but we can't force him to do it." The reply was hardly satisfactory, but it was the best the delegation could get ' and they left muttering threats. They wanted the contract given to the next lowest bidder, but the board could not see its way clear to do so. The contract for the heating of the Humboldt school was sought by two firms, the Allan Black company and the Davis Heatifrg and Plumbing com pany. Tiie former firm submitted the lowest-kid hy about $65, but it is not liked by labor unions. ried to that tribunal. The Steamfitters' union say that the other unions Mill not do a stroke of work on the building unless the Allan Black company em ploys union steamfitters.

PAUL GLt>BS, WEDNESDAY JUNE 24, 1903; SHARP SHOOTERS TO COMPETE FOR WASHBURN TROPHY INafional Guardsmen of North western States to Hold Tour nament at Lake City, Probab ly in September. After eleven years of undisputed pos session the Illinois National guard is called upon to defend its title to the Washburn trophy for sharp-shooting, and the competition will take place at Lake City this summer and will in clude the national guard rifle teams from Illinois, Wisconsin, lowa and this state. This was brought about at a con ference in Chicago Monday at which* the state departments of the national guard of Minnesota, lowa, "Wisconsin and Illinois were represented. It was arranged at this conference that the interstate competition shall take place set Lake City this summer, that 45-cal iber Spring arms shall be used and that the exact time of the event shall be left to Adjt Gen. Libbey to decide. This cup, which is valued at $500, was presented by Senator Washburn, of Minneapolis, to promote rifle com petition among the Northwestern states of Minnesota, Michigan, lowa, Illinois and Wisconsin. In 1892 it was won by Illinois, and by reason of nothing do ing in the way of competition, it has since remained in the possession of that state, but it is open to competi tion and the members of the Minnesota guard are now determined that it shall be brought home to Minnesota where it belongs. Sharp Shooters Get Interested. Two years or more ago interest in rifle practice was revived in the Min nesota guard, after a period of qui esence, which lasted for some years, and from the first, one of the principal objects in view has been the Washburn trophy. Through persevering effort on the part of Adjt. Gen. Libbey, of this state, interest in the interstate com petition has been revived and arrange ments have been consummated as stated. By reason of not being equipped with: the Springfield rifles the Michigan de partment is excluded from the eompe tion, although in all other ways eligi ble. Minnesota was represented In the conference at Chicago by Orris E. Lee* of Stillwater, inspector of small arms practice. Adjt. Gen. Libbey received' a telegram yesterday informing him o£. the arrangements stated above. This contest will be the revival of what was some fifteen years ago a very active association comprising the states named. The rivalry in rifle practice among the state teams wafii very keen and many good marksmeif were developed. The regular competition among the regimental rifle teams of this state for the state championship will take place as usual in August, and it is intended to conduct the competition for posi tions on the state team to engage in the interstae contest at the same time. The brigade inspector of rifle practice will select his state team from the men who make the best showing in the regimental teams'. Thus it is to be expected that the interstate tournament will be held some time early in September.

CONSUL MILLS MAY GO ON HOLDING HIS JOB Charges Against Official in Mexico Carry No Weight at Washington. WASHINGTON, D. C, June 23.— The state department has received by telegrams from Americans residing in Chihuahua, Mexico, a copy of resolu tions adopted by them asking the re moval of W. W. Mills, United States consul at that point. The resolution was not specific in its allegations and did not afford the state department any proper ground for action. The bur den of the complaint seemed to be that the consul, who is a brother of Gen. Anson Mills, retired, had become ob noxious to a considerable portion of the American colony. The depart ment sent a copy of the resolution to the consul with a request to explain. He did so and the department is con vinced that the charges are not well founded.

SUGGEST TRAVERSf DES SIOUX FOR THE MURAL PAINTING Members of the Historical So ciety Propose the important Event as Appropriate Subject for Decoration of New Capitol The desire of the State Horticultural society for the commemoration of some important event in the history of Min nesota in the shape of a great mural painting for the new capltol has been formally presented to the capitol com mission. As a subject for the proposed mural painting the society, through its com mittee, of which James H. Baker is chairman, has selected the great treaty of Traverse dcs Sioux consummated July 23, 1851. This treaty was closed at a spot re cently definitely located on the banks of the Minnesota river, known as the Traverse dcs Sioux (the "Crossing"), which long before had been an im portant trading and missionary point. At this selected spot the commission which was to treat with the Indians arrived June 30, 1851. They pitched seven tents, and a council chamber was erected wiMi poles and covered with green branches of the trees. A plat form of boards was provided for the commission where they sat in great dignity, while board seats were ranged around for the Indian chiefs and war riors. There were several thousand Indians, of both sexes, present on the ground. For an Indian treaty the equipment was extraordinary. The government was represented byvAlexander Ramsey, governor of the territory, and Luke Lea, commissioner iof Indian affairs, while Dr. Thomas Foster, their sec retary, sat at a rude table. The sav ages were represented by all the chiefs and leading warriors of the different Sioux bands. They were arrayed in all the paint and feathers characteristic of that day. Gathering of Notables. Among the great Sioux chiefs present were Sleepy Eye, Red Iron, Curly Head, Big Gun. Orphan and other high poten tates. Nearly all these were orators, and some had Websteriah heads. There also were" such powerful border barons as Henry Hastings Sibley, Joseph R. Brown, Henry M. Rice, Nathaniel Mc- Lean, Hugh Tyler, Martin McLeod. Na than Myrick, H. L. Dousman, , William G. Le Due, William H. Forbes, Henry Jackson, Richard Chute, Louis Robert, Alexander Faribault and others who as traders, interested or as onlookers, gave importance to the scene. The pioneer editor of Minnesota. James M. Goodhue, and the missionaries Rev. S. R Riggs and Rev. T. S. Williamson, were present. French and Scotch voyagers were also there, whose picturesque costumes en livened the remarkable group. Never be fore in the history of America was there such a grand assemblage to consummate an Indian treaty. By the terms of the treaty the Sioux natron ceded all of Minnesota west of tile Mississippi river and a> portion of South Dakota^ and lowa. In this tract Were more than 19.000,000 acres lying within the present borders of Minnesota. No other single treaty made by the govern ment of the United States with Indians ever, before secured so large and so' val uable a body of land. The society is in possession of accurate sketches of this great meeting, including Individual likeness of many of the nota bles present. Frank Blackwell Mayer a member of the party, preserved the oc casion on canvas . and several of his sketches are now in possession of the society. The Historical society also has in view the securing from the legislature of an ap propriation for the erection of a monu meuj: on the spot where the treaty was made. » NEGRO IS WANTED Fftß ATTACKING WOMlft bne v Y'ctim White, the Other Colored and Both Left for Dead.
