Last month archaeologists unearthed several foundations which were once part of St. Paul's red light district. In particular, excitement and controversy surrounded the revelation that the bordello of Nina Clifford, an infamous St. Paul madame, was among the findings. The excavation provides the oportunity for legends of hidden diamonds and rumors of a secret tunnel leading to the upper-crust Minnesota Club to finally be proven or put to rest. Charles Maynes has followed the dig and found that the dustbins of St. Paul history offer more treasured trash than trashy treasure.
