Maps of Minnesota issued in-the next few years will differ widely from those of the present time:" Instead of northern Minnesota being represented* as a track- less waste, it will be shown jwith railroad lines, .new cities and towns," and all of those idetails which mark .growing com- munities. The enormous number of col- onists who have'poured through the .twin cities the past few weeks gives surety. of this change. * W. D. Washburn, Jr.,- speak- ing of this tide of immigration from other states, says: Yesterday," one of the half-fare days, wit- nessed the passage of a large number of set- tlers through Minneapolis. They were going to northern Minnesota and the Dakotas. The crop conditions have - been so very favorable in the northwest that local agents have been successful to an unusual degree in persuad- ing settlers to go into the Dakotas and north- ern Minnesota. .."\u25a0.. . Tha Hackney-Br.ynton company of St. Paul, which purchased the Northern Pacific land grant in North Dakota east of the Missouri, is said to have sold 120,000 acres in the past three months. , The -Minnesota Colonization, company, which bought the , land grant in Minnesota, has. disposed of nearly 600,000 acres. ; ,-*\u25a0 . "\u25a0'''\u25a0'. .. , The largest recent sale of Interest is that of St. Louis and Carlton county lands to the Boston and Duluth Land company. This sale is important in that it takes. out of the mar- ket almost the last of the large tracts of available railway land " in Minnesota, % and shows the alacrity with which lands are being taken up in this state. Hitherto St. Louis county has been regarded as almost worthless for agricultural purposes.' Investigation shows that most of the land may be utilized for general farming. :. While this country re- quires considerable draining, it should open up. a large amount of fertile lands tributary to Duluth and Superior. :>*•!?'' 'v^"- s'3 Opens a" New Territory. The Winnipeg & Port Arthur road already extends thirty miles beyond Warroad, Roseau county, and it is expected that the line will be completed to Port Arthur by fall. This road will, bisect the last'area'of the aboriginal forest land in the state and open, up the fer- tile valley 0f ...the Rainy river. Hundreds of settlers have already gone into this region and are rapidly taking up the last available homesteads. ''\u25a0•\u25a0<\u25a0' Contrary to general belief, the country on the Rainy river has proved to be a flne agri- cultural district with black loam 60il and clay subsoil. A large portion is "brush prai- rie," which can easily be cleared. This dis- trict will unquestionably add a large area of land to the wheat raising district of the state. .- '.'i/.-/'. Work is now being pushed on the extension of the Northern Pacific from Duck lake to Koochiching, where it will meet the Winnipeg & Port Arthur road. Work is also in progress on the Virginia & Rainy Lake road from Vir- ginia, St. Louis county, to the northern boundary line. By the completion of these roads these great counties in the northern part of the state will finally be opened to development. ' . '.. The three counties, Beltrami, Itasca and St. Louis, each have an area about the same as that of Connecticut. Some of this land is fertile, and the lands that are not available for agricultural purposes are either covered with timber or underlaid with iron and min- eral products. The addition of this great re- gion to the productive area of the state is a matter of the greatest importance. ! These great counties will easily support a population of many hundreds of thousands. While the railway facilities in this region will-take most of this business to the head of the lakes, a north and south line should divert "much of it to the twin cities. . «\u25a0 \u25a0 Three Great Counties. In this connection the projected line of the Great Northern from Mora to Swan Lake is a matter of the greatest importance.. It will give the twin cities an entrance to the mining region of St. Louis and Itasca counties. It is to be hoped that this road will soon be con- structed.

Louie and Emil Foubert, two little French boys, -who a short time ago were reported to have wandered from their home in South Minneapolis to Sixth ave- nue N, are at present in the hands of the Catholic orphanage. The Bisters of the orphanage visited the mother and took the children with the understanding that if the father was able to take oare of them they would be given up to him. The Hu- mane society,, which took charge of the case several weeks ago, has written to the father in Sparsfleld, Ont., and to the postmaster, but no reply has been re- ceived. The story as published in Th c Journal J excited a great deal of sym- pathy and offers of assitance from the charitable citizens of Minneapolis.

At present there are only two male principals in the city out- side of the high schools, Jorgens of the Jackson school and Painter of the Adams. The largest buildings among the others are the Madison, Holmes, Monroe, Seward, Emerson, and Washington. It is also probable that the committee will recommend the, employment of more male teachers in the high schools as changes in the present staff occur. LEIGHTON IS AN ANTI Alderman Is Opposed to "Hell Hole Expansion." APROPOS OF SODINPS THEATER The Dive Manager Has Started a Xew One on Lower Nic- ollet Avenue. Alderman H.N. Leighton put in an em- phatic protest at the meeting of the li- cense committee of the council yester- day against the Ames administration's policy of "hellhole" expansion. He found his provocation in the fact that one Ske- tani, popularly supposed to be in the 'em- ploy of Charles Sodini, proprietor of the Columbia theater on Washington avenue S, had been granted a license to open a "theater" on Bridge Square, equipped with the customary bar. attachment. :.- Addressing himself to License Inspector Gardner, Alderman Leigh ton said: . • Sow I would like to know whose fault it is that that place was started up. If this com- mittee had anything to do with lt, I want to know it. If it did, then It was your duty to have told us what we were doing. I believe we have hell-holes enough in Minneapolis now, without adding any more. If it 13 your business to get evidence against these places, why don't you do it, so. that we can close them up* Maybe it is in the line of my duty as a member of this committee to do this myself; if it is, I will do it. . And if I have ever voted. for the opening up of such an es- tablishment in Minneapolis, ; I want to say that I did it not knowing what I was doing, and I want to take it back. Gardner Explains. License Inspector Gardner explained that it was none of his business to look after such matters; that the city clerk granted the theater license upon pay- ment of the license money. He knew nothing about the character of the place, he said. '..'• -~yy'is'::.yyy^i: k \u25a0-:;;: It is the understanding at the city hall that Sodini arranged for j the opening of the new place to give himself-a soft place whereon to land in case the Columbia is closed up as a result of the recent row there resulting in the death of one of the women. The mayor and judge of \u25a0 the municipal court alone have power to close such places, and the latter can only do it indirectly by revoking the license for the saloon attachment and then only upon complaint and after conviction for some violation of the law. The'ordinance says that liquor shall not be sold in any place connected with a theater,, but like a good many other ordinances it is not enforced. THE ELEPHANT AT HOME A Great Spectacle In an African Jungle. E. S. Grogan, in Everybody's .Magazine. Our tents were barely pitched when we saw an enormous | bull elephant emerge from the.papyrus and come gliding across the open country to reach the welcome' shade of the trees in a gorge to our right. Then two more big bulls appeared and fol- lowed majestically in his wake. They had not gone far when the wall of papyrus be- hind them shuddered, staggered . and col- lapsed, while a ceaseless stream of ele- phants, big and little, stately and skittish; burst upon our astonished gaze. On they came, a herd of fully two hundred, the bulls in front straggling in twos or threes, then a solid phalanx of cows, out of which, from time to time, little fellows not more than three feet high ran bewildered, then, steadied by the shrill trumpet of their mammas, scurried back. The- mass seemed to glide over the . country like an ava- lanche, raising a great .trailing cloud of red dust that dimmed the outlines . and gave the impression of some hateful ' tide soaking up the land. Great clumps of bushes, acres of elephant grass loomed up in front,. swayed and were no more. ..,= jj On it swept, this wondrous mass of life, nearer and nearer, till great ivories' glinted white |in the red-gray wave, and yet, never a sound except the screech of a circling kite and the occasional ludicrous trumpeting of an anxious mamma. 3 Our camp was too high, and the motion of the elephant jis peculiarly noiseless. As jwe watched * another herd of thirty emerged from the papyrus, then another herd, and yet another one hundred strong, till the whole valley seemed, to be streaked with elephants. ;Ye gods! it was a wonderful sight, and to us. reclining at | ease in our chairs and puffing at our pipes, it seemed somehow unreal. All my life I had longed to see the; Africa of :- Gordon, 3 Cumming and Oswell, and there it was! . I was calm- ly lounging on a chair, and watching some- thing : between . two thousand jjand fifteen hundred elephants strolling about my feet. The whole herd passed to " water at a small swamp; then, just as they emerged from their stifling struggle with the veg- etation,* streamed, out : once ; more J across .the plain. The huge beasts struggled out till they covered fully a mile and the great tusks of the bulls gleamed white and enticing in the sun. They - were within haif a mile and looked truly magnificent "as they swarmed • along, all unconscious of the three small specks that hovered re- lentlessly on their, flank.. - From bush to bush, i| bunch of grass to bunch of grass .those three small specks flitted/steadily drawing * nearer" to the - huge-tusked "* bull that led the van.

" The passage of the .or- dinance means that 300 : laborers will jbe put to work at once on the improvements. Some L of them condemn the attitude* of Alderman Foell on the ground that by his efforts to block the ordinance and thereby delay tiework he is doing an injury to the army; of laborers I in. Minneapolis.. C. O. Peterson's \u25a0 Attitude. Business men generally express surprise at the attitude of Alderman Claus O. Peterson of , the eleventh ward, who voted against the ordinance the last time it was before the council. - Many of them say they are unable to understand why he should take a position against a measure designed to aid in the general improve- ment of Minneapolis. ' Ernest F. Smith, chairman of the rail- road committee of the Commercial club said: : -y i: .... \u25a0. If we ever expect to make Minneapolis a railway renter, we must have increased ter- minal facilities. The Wisconsin .Central is ready to begin the expenditure of a half mil- lion dollars on an improvement of that kind and asks but a small matter of the city coun- cil in its request for the vacation of the stub streets. If attempts made* in the city council to block improvements of this kind are suc- cessful, it will discourage railroads from en- tering Minneapolis and have a tendency to discourage those jof her citizens who are working for the betterment' of the city. Looking Into Water Supply. The Comemrcial club committee on pub- lic health has been at work.for several weeks conducting investigations as to the water supply of the city. A large amount of valuable information has been gathered. The committee is composed of Dr. C. A. McCollom, chairman; Doctors Bell, Wes- ton, Roberts, Williamson, former City En- gineer Cappelen and ex-Mayor Pratt. The committee meets regularly every Wednes- day. WISCONSIN CENTRAL OFFICIALS They Are Here to Help Along; the Terminal Project. General Counsel Morris and Chief Engi- neer Tweedy of the Wisconsin' Central railway are in the city again to-day. There seems to be no doubt but that the ordi- nance for the vacation of the streets will be passed at to-morrow night's meeting of the council. Messrs.* Rand and Foell are still plotting actively and ex-Alderman Kiichli has again postponed his trip to Montana to help them out. Their scheme now is to get enough of the aldermen to absent themselves from to-morrow night's meeting to prevent reconsideration of the vote of two weeks ago. -v">".- \u25a0 There were twenty-one aldermen pres- ent at that* meeting, seventeen of these voted for the ordinance I,' just one less than the S three-fourths required to adopt an ordinance. - Alderman Powers immediately changed his vote and gave notice of a mo- tion to reconsider. To do this, there must be as many, present as at the meet- ing at which.the notice was given. '\u25a0•'\u25a0)h ..•.\u25a0- If the plotters can arrange to .have;six aldermen out of town that night they will carry their point. : It is believed/however, that they, will "fail to. make connections. Every member of the council is now in the city. Colonel Adams is yet: a sick man, but it is planned to take him to the meeting in a carriage, take up the two important matters of business before the meeting, the Wisconsin Central ordinance and the paving bond issue, promptly upon his arrival, and then leave him free to go home again. ..*.,, • Nobody knows what Messrs.- Peterson and Nels Nelson are going to do this -time, but the popular Impression is that they will remain obdurate. With all, or even twenty-two members of the council pres- ent, however, it is believed that their votes will not be needed. ' sr-'- TESTING PRECIOUS STONES How to, Distinguish Between Gen- nine and Spurious Article. Washington Special to New York Times. Consul General Guenther of Frankfort under date of Feb. 11, 1901. writes to the state department as follows': "In a lecture on precious stones, recent- ly delivered before the Industrial Asso- ciation of Berlin, Dr.: Immanuel Fried- laender said that the testing of diamonds is comparatively simple. The common test for hardness suffices. \ If the stone re- sists strong attacks it is certain to-be genuine; if It does not the damage is in- significant, as only an imitation has been destroyed. This; test, however,- is doubt- ful with rubies. If a ruby can be affected by.a : steel file or, by quartz it is surely not genuine, but, such a test with a topaz is liable to injure a valuable stone. v,,^ "The test for hardness is of \ no avail with | emerald s, as jthis stone j is not much harder than quartz, and, in addition pos- sesses the quality of cracking easily' - "For examining rubies and emeralds the optical test is best. A glass magnifying about 10 times \u25a0 suffices. Every expert knows that almost "all precious stones have little; flaws. Nearly every ruby and all emeralds have many defects which are so characteristic that the genuineness of the j stones Is readily established. Such a test, is very necessary with rubies, be- cause the imitations are very | deceiving Their color 'is absolutely, durable and often much finer than that of the genuine although it may be stated that \u25a0 a some- what ' yellowish tint is always suspicious. .', "The only reliable way in which genuine rubies can be told from imitations \u25a0is by the • minute "air' bubbles of the latter; which | become; clearly visible under the magnifying \ glass. These are \u25a0 not to -be found ;in the natural gem; on , the other hand, the imitations lack certain defects characteristic a of genuine rubies—certain vacuums, .whose, outlines are much; more indistinct than those of the air bubbles in imitations. : v.-; • i "True emeralds have similar character- istic defects, such |as inclosures of liquids , and.; curious , dendrites.'

The penalty for puffing the sublimated juice of the poppy is $500 fine or six months in the county jail, or both. IT WAS STRICT LAW Court May Interfere Between Guar- r ";-'•- ',' \ dian and Child. \u25a0£ :J \u25a0 "'"./. " In referring to the : decision of Judge Brooks in.the case of the La Plant minors, in j which the habeas corpus proceedings were dismissed and the custody of the two boys given to Mrs. Dunham, their grand- mother, it was Intimated that in reaching his conclusion the court had not adhered to the; strict letter of the law. This Is a mistake, :as Judge Brooks bases his decis- ion wholly on the law, as is shown in his very able and exhaustive memorandum.l Many cases are cited in support of the court's right to deny the guardian the cus- tody of his wards, and' to the effect, also, that the rights of a guardian are no greater" than' those of a father, who has in many instances been denied the custody of his children when It appeared that | their welfare would be best subserved by i leaving them with the mother or other relative. Among other decisions cited by the court is on© by the supreme court of this state' holding that in habeas corpus the. court "may upon a proper showing re- fuse - the guardian the custody of his ward," and that "it jj always requires a much stronger j case to induce a court of chancery to interfere between parent and child than it does to invoke such inter- vention between guardian and ward." ,- - — . • Court Notes. The hard luck story narrated Iby Helen M. Wise in her complaint for a divorce' from James J. Wise, filed this morning, shows that. her marlred life has been anything but a path of roses. She. alleges that the defendant earns $200 a, month as a salesman for lubri- cating oils, and;asks for permanent alimony. £ Judge Elliott and a jury are engaged in try- ing: the case of Christ Oppegard against the C. A. Smith Lumber company, in which ac- tion is brought for $1,008 damages, alleged to be due on a contract for scaling over 5,000,000 feet of logs. i->. \u25a0 ' " '„< ; Judge Pond and a jury this morning took up the case of Conrad J. . Ertz against the Produce | Exchange of Minneapolis, in which action suit is brought for $25,000 damages al- leged to have resulted; from injuries to \u25a0 the plaintiff's business brought about by his ex- clusion 'from the Produce Exchange. ./.The case was tried last year, the jury finding for the defendants, but on an appeal. this decision was r reversed by the supreme court, and the case was sent back for a new trial. Judge Simpson this - morning took: up the divorce case of Mary E. Grimes against John Grimes, in which action was brought about a year ago on the ground of adultery. When the case was called Mrs. Grimes failed to put in an appearance, and an attempt was made to have Grimes give ;! his :. testimony on his cross bill for • a divorce "on| the grounds of desertion. Judge Simpson told. the attorneys for Mrs. Grimes that it was his duty to have her in court. The case was continued. v The application of Cady Webster for a di- vorce from Benjamin H. Webster on the ground of desertion was denied, as the charge was not proven. ''-T:'-' />;.",.:":,';' \u25a0'\u25a0'-\u25a0'' Hannah E. Jennings was granted a divorce from James G.

' , ' '- The council committee on public grounds and buildings recommended- yesterday that the contract for constructing two bathhouses, one at Lake Calhoun and one on the river at Riverside park, be awarded to Leek & Prince. The committee, in company with Park Commissioner Harry W. Jones, went out to view the proposed sites at both places. .-, There is a pronounced difference .of opinion regarding the "location of the Cal- houn bathhouse. The protests !of the residents along the boulevard against building on the site of the old houses have been effective with the park board. All but two or three of the board favor the location at the north end the lake. The members of the public grounds and buildings committee. believe that the in- terests of the public require that the new building be placed on the boulevard site. They will be outvoted by the park board, however. ;.-•\u25a0\u25a0\u25a0 . -n-iivy The park board, it is said, would gladly turn the management of bathhouse af- fairs over to the city council : The proposed buildings will cos! $883 each,' according to . the present specifica- tions.

LANDS GOING BASTGrowth of Northern Minn; as Viewed

by W. D. Washburn," Jr.

IT IS A RICH FARMING COUNTRY

Large Areas to Be Added to theWheat District of the

;

State.

Maps of Minnesota issued in-the nextfew years will differ widely from thoseof the present time:" Instead of northernMinnesota being represented* as a track-less waste, it will be shown jwithrailroadlines, .new cities and towns," and all ofthose idetails which mark .growing com-munities. The enormous number of col-onists who have'poured through the .twincities the past few weeks gives surety. ofthis change. * W. D. Washburn, Jr.,- speak-ing of this tide of immigration from otherstates, says:

Yesterday," one of the half-fare days, wit-nessed the passage of a large number of set-tlers through Minneapolis. They were goingto northern Minnesota and the Dakotas. Thecrop conditions have -been so very favorablein the northwest that local agents have beensuccessful to an unusual degree in persuad-ing settlers to go into the Dakotas and north-ern Minnesota. .."\u25a0.. .

Tha Hackney-Br.ynton company of St. Paul,which purchased the Northern Pacific landgrant in North Dakota east of the Missouri,is said to have sold 120,000 acres in the pastthree months. , The -Minnesota Colonization,company, which bought the , land grant inMinnesota, has. disposed of nearly 600,000acres. ; ,-*\u25a0 . "\u25a0'''\u25a0'. .. ,

The largest recent sale of Interest is thatof St. Louis and Carlton county lands to theBoston and Duluth Land company. This saleis important in that it takes. out of the mar-ket almost the last of the large tracts ofavailable railway land " in Minnesota, % andshows the alacrity with which lands are beingtaken up in this state. Hitherto St. Louiscounty has been regarded as almost worthlessfor agricultural purposes.' Investigationshows that most of the land may be utilizedfor general farming. :.While this country re-quires considerable draining, it should openup. a large amount of fertile lands tributaryto Duluth and Superior. :>*•!?'' 'v^"-s'3

Opens a" New Territory.

The Winnipeg & Port Arthur road alreadyextends thirty miles beyond Warroad, Roseaucounty, and it is expected that the line willbe completed to Port Arthur by fall. Thisroad will, bisect the last'area'of the aboriginalforest land in the state and open, up the fer-tile valley 0f...the Rainy river. Hundreds ofsettlers have already gone into this regionand are rapidly taking up the last availablehomesteads. ''\u25a0•\u25a0<\u25a0'

Contrary to general belief, the country onthe Rainy river has proved to be a flne agri-cultural district with black loam 60il andclay subsoil. A large portion is "brush prai-rie," which can easily be cleared. This dis-trict will unquestionably add a large area ofland to the wheat raising district of thestate. .- '.'i/.-/'.

Work is now being pushed on the extensionof the Northern Pacific from Duck lake toKoochiching, where it will meet the Winnipeg& Port Arthur road. Work is also in progresson the Virginia & Rainy Lake road from Vir-ginia, St. Louis county, to the northernboundary line. By the completion of theseroads these great counties in the northernpart of the state will finally be opened todevelopment. ' . '..

The three counties, Beltrami, Itasca andSt. Louis, each have an area about the sameas that of Connecticut. Some of this land isfertile, and the lands that are not availablefor agricultural purposes are either coveredwith timber or underlaid with iron and min-eral products. The addition of this great re-gion to the productive area of the state is amatter of the greatest importance. ! Thesegreat counties will easily support a populationof many hundreds of thousands. While therailway facilities in this region will-takemost of this business to the head of the lakes,a north and south line should divert"much ofit to the twin cities. . «\u25a0

\u25a0

' Men will hereafter be given the prefer-ence as principals of the larger gradeschools in Minneapolis^ if competent 'mencan be found willing; to- serve for themoney the board of education pays for thisservice.

The board has had in view for :sometime the policy of adding more male prin-cipals to the list as '""occasion *offered;For the past four or five years, the* in-crease in school capacity/ has been mostlyin the form of additions to existing build-ings, with the result that the work.andresponsibility of principals have beenheavier. Beginning with next fall therewill be some eight or "ten schools ** thatwill have from 1,000 to. 1,200 pupils of allgrades. "\u25a0• This number, in the ! opinion ofseveral members of the board, is beyond awoman's strength. The idea is that asvacancies occur in the list of principalshereafter men shall be appointed*. -

• The complete list of teachers and prin-cipals will be reported to the board atthe May meeting. At present there areonly two male principals in the city out-side of the high schools, Jorgens of theJackson school and Painter of the Adams.The largest buildings among the othersare the Madison, Holmes, Monroe, Seward,Emerson, and Washington.

It is also probable that the committeewill recommend the, employment of moremale teachers in the high schools aschanges in the present staff occur.

LEIGHTON IS AN ANTIAlderman Is Opposed to "Hell Hole

Expansion."

APROPOS OF SODINPS THEATER

The Dive Manager Has Started aXew One on Lower Nic-

ollet Avenue.

Alderman H.N. Leighton put in an em-phatic protest at the meeting of the li-cense committee of the council yester-day against the Ames administration'spolicy of "hellhole" expansion. He foundhis provocation in the fact that one Ske-tani, popularly supposed to be in the 'em-ploy of Charles Sodini, proprietor of theColumbia theater on Washington avenueS, had been granted a license to open a"theater" on Bridge Square, equipped withthe customary bar. attachment. :.-

Addressing himself to License InspectorGardner, Alderman Leigh ton said: . •

Sow I would like to know whose fault it isthat that place was started up. Ifthis com-mittee had anything to do with lt, I want toknow it. If it did, then It was your duty tohave told us what we were doing. I believewe have hell-holes enough in Minneapolisnow, without adding any more. If it 13 yourbusiness to get evidence against these places,why don't you do it, so. that we can closethem up* Maybe it is in the line of my dutyas a member of this committee to do thismyself; if it is, I will do it. . And if I haveever voted. for the opening up of such an es-tablishment in Minneapolis, ; I want to saythat I did it not knowing what I was doing,and I want to take it back.

Gardner Explains.

License Inspector Gardner explainedthat it was none of his business to lookafter such matters; that the city clerkgranted the theater license upon pay-ment of the license money. He knewnothing about the character of the place,he said. '..'• -~yy'is'::.yyy^i: k \u25a0-:;;:

It is the understanding at the city hallthat Sodini arranged for jthe opening ofthe new place to give himself-a soft placewhereon to land in case the Columbia isclosed up as a result of the recent rowthere resulting in the death of one of thewomen. The mayor and judge of \u25a0 themunicipal court alone have power to closesuch places, and the latter can only do itindirectly by revoking the license for thesaloon attachment and then only uponcomplaint and after conviction for someviolation of the law. The'ordinance saysthat liquor shall not be sold in any placeconnected with a theater,, but like a goodmany other ordinances it is not enforced.

THE ELEPHANT AT HOMEA Great Spectacle In an African

Jungle.

E. S. Grogan, in Everybody's .Magazine.Our tents were barely pitched when we

saw an enormous | bull elephant emergefrom the.papyrus and come gliding acrossthe open country to reach the welcome'shade of the trees in a gorge to our right.Then two more big bulls appeared and fol-lowed majestically in his wake. They hadnot gone far when the wall of papyrus be-hind them shuddered, staggered . and col-lapsed, while a ceaseless stream of ele-phants, big and little, stately and skittish;burst upon our astonished gaze. On theycame, a herd of fully two hundred, thebulls in front straggling in twos or threes,then a solid phalanx of cows, out of which,from time to time, little fellows not morethan three feet high ran bewildered, then,steadied by the shrill trumpet of theirmammas, scurried back. The- mass seemedto glide over the . country like an ava-lanche, raising a great .trailing cloud ofred dust that dimmed the outlines . andgave the impression of some hateful ' tidesoaking up the land. Great clumps ofbushes, acres of elephant grass loomed upin front,. swayed and were no more. ..,=jj On it swept, this wondrous mass of life,nearer and nearer, till great ivories'glinted white |in the red-gray wave, andyet, never a sound except the screech of acircling kite and the occasional ludicroustrumpeting of an anxious mamma. 3 Ourcamp was too high, and the motion of theelephant jis peculiarly noiseless. As jwewatched *another herd of thirty emergedfrom the papyrus, then another herd, andyet another one hundred strong, till thewhole valley seemed, to be streaked withelephants. ;Ye gods! it was a wonderfulsight, and to us. reclining at |ease in ourchairs and puffing at our pipes, it seemedsomehow unreal. All my life I had longedto see the; Africa of :- Gordon, 3 Cummingand Oswell, and there it was! .I was calm-lylounging on a chair, and watching some-thing : between . two thousand jjand fifteenhundred elephants strolling about my feet.

The whole herd passed to " water at asmall swamp; then, just as they emergedfrom their stifling struggle with the veg-etation,* streamed, out : once ; more J across.the plain. The huge beasts struggled outtill they covered fully a mile and thegreat tusks of the bulls gleamed white andenticing in the sun. They - were withinhaif a mile and looked truly magnificent"as they swarmed • along, all unconsciousof the three small specks that hovered re-lentlessly on their, flank.. - From bush tobush, i|bunch of grass to bunch of grass.those three small specks flitted/steadilydrawing * nearer" to the -huge-tusked "*bullthat led the van.

THE ACTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL

It'lst'Waited For With Suspense—At-titude of Certain Members*' '

Inexplicable.

;;\u25a0 The meeting of the city council i thisevening will be watched with unusual in-"terest by the business men of .'the/city tosee .what: progress"' is made :by "j\ the ; or-dinance to .vacate the stub; streets on "" theproperty .of the Wisconsin ; Central in or-der to permit sof ,the big improvementsplanned by 1 the road.* * A petition* wassigned by all of the large shippers .thisweek requesting the council to \u25a0 pass" theordinance. A delegation of Commercialclub members will attend \ the meeting .ofthe" -council to urge the passage of themeasure. . : - \u25a0 - ; \u25a0

| Many laboring men, who want to see thedemand in the local labor market as goodas possible, are* becoming interested "inthe movement. " The passage of the .or-dinance means that 300 : laborers will jbeput to work at once on the improvements.Some L of them condemn the attitude* ofAlderman Foell on the ground that by hisefforts to block the ordinance and therebydelay tiework he is doing an injury tothe army; of laborers Iin. Minneapolis..

C. O. Peterson's \u25a0 Attitude.Business men generally express surprise

at the attitude of Alderman Claus O.Peterson of, the eleventh ward, who votedagainst the ordinance the last time it wasbefore the council. - Many of them saythey are unable to understand why heshould take a position against a measuredesigned to aid in the general improve-ment of Minneapolis. '

Ernest F. Smith, chairman of the rail-road committee of the Commercial clubsaid: : -yi:.... \u25a0.If we ever expect to make Minneapolis arailway renter, we must have increased ter-

minal facilities. The Wisconsin .Central isready to begin the expenditure of a half mil-lion dollars on an improvement of that kindand asks but a small matter of the city coun-cil in its request for the vacation of the stubstreets. If attempts made* in the city councilto block improvements of this kind are suc-cessful, it will discourage railroads from en-tering Minneapolis and have a tendency todiscourage those jof her citizens who areworking for the betterment' of the city.

Looking Into Water Supply.

The Comemrcial club committee on pub-lic health has been at work.for severalweeks conducting investigations as to thewater supply of the city. A large amountof valuable information has been gathered.The committee is composed of Dr. C. A.McCollom, chairman; Doctors Bell, Wes-ton, Roberts, Williamson, former City En-gineer Cappelen and ex-Mayor Pratt. Thecommittee meets regularly every Wednes-day.

WISCONSIN CENTRAL OFFICIALSThey Are Here to Help Along; the

Terminal Project.

General Counsel Morris and Chief Engi-neer Tweedy of the Wisconsin' Centralrailway are in the city again to-day. Thereseems to be no doubt but that the ordi-nance for the vacation of the streets willbe passed at to-morrow night's meeting ofthe council. Messrs.* Rand and Foell arestill plotting actively and ex-AldermanKiichli has again postponed his trip toMontana to help them out. Their schemenow is to get enough of the aldermen toabsent themselves from to-morrow night'smeeting to prevent reconsideration of thevote of two weeks ago. -v">".- \u25a0

There were twenty-one aldermen pres-ent at that* meeting, seventeen of thesevoted for the ordinance I,' just one less thanthe S three-fourths required to adopt anordinance. - Alderman Powers immediatelychanged his vote and gave notice of a mo-tion to reconsider. To do this, theremust be as many, present as at the meet-ing at which.the notice was given. '\u25a0•'\u25a0)h ..•.\u25a0-

If the plotters can arrange to .have;sixaldermen out of town that night they willcarry their point. : It is believed/however,that they, will "fail to. make connections.Every member of the council is now inthe city. Colonel Adams is yet:a sickman, but it is planned to take him to themeeting in a carriage, take up the twoimportant matters of business before themeeting, the Wisconsin Central ordinanceand the paving bond issue, promptly uponhis arrival, and then leave him free to gohome again. ..*.,,

• Nobody knows what Messrs.- Petersonand Nels Nelson are going to do this -time,but the popular Impression is that theywill remain obdurate. With all, or eventwenty-two members of the council pres-ent, however, it is believed that theirvotes will not be needed. ' sr-'-

TESTING PRECIOUS STONESHow to, Distinguish Between Gen-

nine and Spurious Article.Washington Special to New York Times.Consul General Guenther of Frankfortunder date of Feb. 11, 1901. writes to thestate department as follows':

"Ina lecture on precious stones, recent-ly delivered before the Industrial Asso-ciation of Berlin, Dr.: Immanuel Fried-laender said that the testing of diamondsis comparatively simple. The commontest for hardness suffices. \ If the stone re-sists strong attacks it is certain to-begenuine; if It does not the damage is in-significant, as only an imitation has beendestroyed. This; test, however,- is doubt-ful with rubies. If a ruby can be affectedby.a :steel file or, by quartz it is surelynot genuine, but, such a test with a topazis liable to injure a valuable stone. v,,^

"The test for hardness is of\ no availwith |emerald s, as jthis stone jis not muchharder than quartz, and, in addition pos-sesses the quality of cracking easily' -"For examining rubies and emeralds theoptical test is best. A glass magnifyingabout 10 times \u25a0 suffices. Every expertknows that almost "all precious stoneshave little;flaws. Nearly every ruby andall emeralds have many defects whichare so characteristic that the genuinenessof the jstones Is readily established. Sucha test, is very necessary with rubies, be-cause the imitations are very | deceivingTheir color 'is absolutely, durable andoften much finer than that of the genuinealthough it may be stated that \u25a0 a some-what ' yellowish tint is always suspicious..', "The only reliable way in which genuinerubies can be told from imitations \u25a0is bythe • minute "air' bubbles of the latter;which | become; clearly visible under themagnifying \ glass. These are \u25a0 not to -befound ;in the natural gem; on , the otherhand, the imitations lack certain defectscharacteristic a of genuine rubies—certainvacuums, .whose, outlines are much; moreindistinct than those of the air bubblesin imitations. : v.-; •

IT WAS STRICT LAW

Court May Interfere Between Guar-

r ";-'•- ',' \ dian and Child. \u25a0£ :J \u25a0 "'"./." In referring to the : decision of JudgeBrooks in.the case of the La Plant minors,in jwhich the habeas corpus proceedingswere dismissed and the custody of the twoboys given to Mrs. Dunham, their grand-mother, it was Intimated that in reachinghis conclusion the court had not adheredto the; strict letter of the law. This Is amistake, :as Judge Brooks bases his decis-ion wholly on the law, as is shown in hisvery able and exhaustive memorandum.l

Many cases are cited in support of thecourt's right to deny the guardian the cus-tody of his wards, and' to the effect, also,that the rights of a guardian are nogreater" than' those of a father, who has inmany instances been denied the custodyof his children when It appeared that

| their welfare would be best subserved by

i leaving them with the mother or otherrelative. Among other decisions cited bythe court is on© by the supreme court ofthis state' holding that in habeas corpusthe. court "may upon a proper showing re-fuse - the guardian the custody of hisward," and that "it jj always requires amuch stronger jcase to induce a court ofchancery to interfere between parent andchild than it does to invoke such inter-vention between guardian and ward."
