SOMERS' BAD FIX In Jail Here, but If Extradited He May Be Lynched. Henry Somers, a negro who is wanted at Bolivar, Term., to answer 1 to a charge of murder, was yesterday released in the police court, St. Paul, on a demurrer in- terposed by his attorney, P. L. McGhee to the form of complaint under which he had been arrested. However, he had no sooner gained his liberty than he was again taken into custody by Sheriff Sam- mons who came here from Tennessee armed with requisition papers which he will present to Governor Van Sant as soon as the governor returns to St. Paul A colored mass meeting was held last night to protest against Somers 1 extradition It Is feared that he will be lynched If re- turned to Tennessee.

"If we could place each laborer who ap- plies here for work in a dozen different positions at the same time we would not be able to accommodate the demand," is i the way the manager of one prominent ! local employment agency put it this morn- ing. > There is still a heavy call for men for railroad and bridge work and for places in ] local mills and factories. The harvesters who worked during the fajl in Minnesota I and the Dakotas have found work so plen- | tiful in those parts that many of those '• upon whom local labor bureaus depended j have not come back to the'city. Hundreds ; of men could be sent out for work in the i woods within a day if they were to be had. THEY BRING FRIENDS Northwestern Traveler* In Rurope Then* has been little immigration dur- ing the past three or four weeks. Each fall there is a great decrease in the num- ber of new arrivals at the Minneapolis railroad stations, and this year has been no exception. "Injmigration will pick up again in November and December," said Immigrant Agent Groettum of the union station this morning. "A large number of northwesterners who spent the summer and fall in the old countries will begin to return shortly, and they usually bring a large number of friends and relatives with them." BURIED TREASURE FOUND Workmen in St. Panl Dlk lp Small Change. Workmen engaged in excavating for a storehouse in the rear of Clarkin Broth- ers' grocery store, 13 Leech street, St. Paul, discovered buried treasure yesterday afternoon, amounting to about $10. The money was rnostiy in pennies and three- cent pieces, although some coins of larger denomination were found also. The lat- est pieces were dated in the early sixties, and how they came to be buried there is a mystery. Children playing about the work found numerous coins in the dirt thrown up by the workmen, and that fact led to an investigation. Return With I nun Igran ss. s^-^L >^^*^\ Established 1882.

' There was a email barn fire, of unknown origin, at the rear of 1416 Spruce place, last night. The neighbors turned in\ fire alarms from three different boxes, summoning twice as much apparatus as was needed. The barn and household goods stored in It were de- stroyed, causing a loss of about $300. ; : James Davidson, 17 years old, was arrested last night in his room at 25 Seventh street S. Several months ago, he was sent to the state training school and, about Sept. 1, was re- leased on parole. " His mother asked that he be returned. When the officers entered his room, the boy made a hard struggle, but was overpowered and taken to the station. Local saloon men. at the rext meeting of the Retail Liquor Dealers' Association, will attempt to adopt some uniform rule against loaning money to customers without secu- rity. Many of them say that their losses through this practice are heavy, but add that they cannot well afford to refuse loans ! when other men in the same business are willingto grant such "accommodation." FINE ENTERTAINMENTS Y. SI. C. A.'s Season Course liielnde* .. Many- Bright Xaraen. The sale of reserved seats for the Y. M. C. A. popular entertainment course begins at the Metropolitan music store at 9 o'clock Monday morning. The course will begin Oct. 15, with a concert by the Bruno. Steindel company. The season's program includes a lecture by Jacob Riis, the great investigator, of the slums of New York; Dr. Thomas H. Dixon, Jr.. Jeariette Durno, the Ottumwa Male Quar- tet, Dr. Prank Bristol, the Almondbury Hand Bell Ringers, the Durno-Emmett combination. Miss Ida Benefy and Robert J. Burdette. Such talented people are certain to provide interesting entertain- ment, ijj The Bruno Steindel company which is to open the course is a superior organiza- tion. Bruno Steindel, who heads the or- ganization, is a cellist of.. international reputation. He was for" three years the soloist of the famous Philharmonic or- chestra of Berlin, a position for which there were fifty-six applicants. He came to America to associate himself with the Theodore Thomas orchestra of Chicago. Miss Clara Trimble, the company's so- prano soloist has a sweet and sympathetic voice. Mrs. Steindel is an. accomplished pianist. Studying under August Hyllestad at the Chicago Music college she received for three successive years the diamond medals awarded to the best pianist in her class. In Berlin she won a scholar- ship at the Royal High School of Music and later studied in Vienna under the great master Leschetizky. Fritz Itte is one of the most talented violinists in the Thomas orchestra. His father was his first teacher, and at the age of 7 he began studying under S. E. Jacobsohn, per- formed in public as early as his eighth year and won the diamond medals in both gaduating and post-graduating classes at Chicago Musical college. CAN YOU INSPECT MEAT ?

The salaries run from $1.20U to $1,400 a year. Everyone who has been accepted heretofore has been imediately assigned to a place. Not- withstanding a series of semi-annual and regular special examinations, the commis- sion has been unable to establish a reg- ister for available persons in this de- partment. Another trial will be made Oct. 22. The applicant must be over 20 years of age and he may obtain forms and information from the bureau commission at Washington.

Preference may be given to residents of states oi' territories which have not received an excess of their share of ap- pointments under the apportionment. CANT FIX ITS LINES Conneil Revokes PermitN Issued to Northwestern Telephone Co. All pertnits for the repair of the North- western Telephone Exchange lines in the city were revoked by the council at an adjourned meeting last night. The meet- ing had been called to adopt the city budget for 1902, as made up by the prun- ing committee, but Alderman Merrill em- braced the opportunity to make a report on the methods of the telephone company in exercising the rights granted them by the council. He pointed out that after asking for 1 permits to make repairs of lines in certain designated streets they had gone to work and built new lines en- tirely, without seeking permits for this work or reporting their intention. He sug- gested that the permits be revoked. "There are altogether too many usurp- ations by this company," said Aldertnan S. E. Adams, who spoke after Mr. Merrill. "They never ask us for any privilege or anything else they may want." A motion by Alderman Foell, that all permits granted by the city engineer for repairs to the company's lines be revoked received the unanimous vote of the coun- cil.

MADE SOAP TO EKE OUT SALARY 11l Telling' Storiea to His Sunday School Children He Drifted Into Authorship. I announcement of the serious illness dward Eggleston, the prominent author, recalls to old settlers the fact that Mr. Eggleston once made his home in Minnesota. He came here in territorial days, hoping that the pure air of Minne- sota would benefit his health, and that it did so his long life bears eloquent tes- timony. In 1856 Mr. Eggleston, who is a Metho- dist minister, was assigned to the pastor- ate of the little Methodist church at Traverse de Sioux, a small town one mile from St. Peter, then the county seat, but which has since disappeared from the map. The church building in which he preached la still standing, and is now used as a slaughter-house by a St. Peter butcher. Traverse de Sioux was scarcely more than an Indian trading post, and much of Mr. Eggleston's early work was among the Indians. E. D. Hatcher, now a resident of Minne- apolis, then lived in St. Peter and knew Mr. Eggleston well. "He was a thin, sickly looking man." said Mr. Hatcher this morning, "about B feet 10 inches in height, and wore a close-cut beard. Everybody knew him and he was very popular. His church had an audience of only about ftfty peo- ple, and to eke out his small salary he and his father-in-law, a man named Mc- Graw, used to run a small soap factory. They did all the work themselves, boil- ing their own soap and selling or trading It to their neighbors. The McGraws, I think, came from Baltimore. Eggleston himself was an easterner. He lived in Traverse de Sioux about three years and then went to St. Paul. As I remember it, Eggleston was a great friend of Judgo Flandreau and of Rev. Moses N. Adams, a Presbyterian minister, both of whom now live in St. Paul. In addition to his pastorate at Traverse de Sioux. Mr. Eggleston also had churches in St. Paul. Stiilwatcr and Winona. At Winona he began his literary work, and when he resigned his pastorate there it was to go east and devote his entire time to writing. Colonel \V. W. Williams, who knew him in Winona, tells of his intro- duction to literary work as follows: "Mr. Eggleston." said he. "was In charge of the Methodist church in Winona during 18G4 and 1865. His determination to write was the direct outgrowth of his Sunday school work in that town. He had always liked children, and his Sunday school was the largest and moet success- ful in the city. Children loved him. and would willingly sit for hours listening to his stories. He was so successful as a story teller that when the suggestion was made that he write a few stories for the magazines he determined to try it. The stories were written and published. Then he wont east and published 'The Hoosier Schoolmaster,' which created a furore. "In Winona he preached a sermon, fol- lowing the assassination of President Lin- coln, that was one of the most eloquent addresses I ever heard. Everybody knew him and everybody loved him. I remem- ber one time when I went from Winona to Prescott, where I had bought a paper, Mr. Eggleston wrent with me. We made a trip together, and shared the same bed in the hotel that night. He was a most lovable man, and did much for the com- munity in which he lived. His story, 'The Mystery of Metropolisville,' was written of incidents that occurred at Red Wing, and its scenes were laid there. After he went east ,he became the editor of Appleton's Journal, which has since suspended publication. I am more sorry than I can tell you to learn of his ill- ness." PHELPS WAS PRESENT Reaolutioii Anent Donation Passed With His Sanction. The records of the state normal school board are against Professor W. F. Phelps, of Duluth. They show that on June 15 a resolution was passed accepting a pro- posed donation from the citizens of Du- luth. to be spent in completing the new building. The Journal recently published this fact, aud called attention to the fact that the fund had not yet made its appearance, while work on the building progresses. Professor Phelps wrote a vehement de- nial, which was published Thursday. The records show The Journal's article substantially correct. Professor Phelps did not introduce the resolution, but he was present and it passed with his sanction. The resolution was by Director J. C. Norby, and read as follows: Whereas, President Director Wm. P. Phelps has represented to this board that the citizens of Duluth have generously volunteered to donate the sum of $10,000 to cover the de- ficiency in the appropriations available for completing and e'iiipping the new normal school at that place. Resolved, That such proposed donation be and is gratefully accepted, and that the resi- dent director and building committee of said school are hereby authorized and directed, as soon as said sum is deposited in the state treasury, to proceed to equip said school and perfect arrangements to open the same during the present year. The resolution carried. WANT NEXT ENCAMPMENT Morgan Post Veterans Would Secure It for Minneapolis. Morgan Post, G. A. R., appointed a com- mittee last night to agitate the mattei' jof securing the next national encamp- ment for Minneapolis. The committee is composed of J. L. Dobbin, S. S. Brown, j Mayor A. A. Ames, W. D. Hale, W. F. Roberts, L. W. Pruss, Robert Str/ttt* J and J. A. Fillmore. The determination of I the post to go after the encampment was expressed in the following resolution: "Resolved, That it is the senes of this post that the time has come when Minne- apolis should seek the honor of again en- tertaining the national encampment of the G. A. R. in 1902." I A communication was received last ! night from L. S. Donaldson, stating that ; he would start an encampment funi with $1,000 and would make it $5,000 later, if necessary. At least $100,000 will have to be raised if the encampment is to come here. HALF MILL TAX Library Board Will Aik the Maxi- mum Rate. Judge Fish has returned $39.25 to the library board, the difference between the I $200 voted for printing a Lincoln blblio- ; graph compiled by the judge and the amount received from the sale. Dr. Hos- mer says the work is the most comprehen- sive evef made of an American. It has been well received in other libraries of the country. The board yesterday voted to call for a half mill tax, the maximum allowed by law. Dr. Hosmer announced that Herbert Putnam of Boston, formerly of the Minne- apolis library, would not be able to visit this city on his western trip. NEW REED AND RATTAN COMPANY. The Twin City Reed and Rattan company has incorporated with $20,000 capital stock. The lncorporators are Louis W. S?hro?der, Otto B. Penshorn and Edward W. Dahl all of St. Paul. THE EIGHTH WONDER.

To-day is the third anniversary of the battle between Company H, of the Third United States infantry, under General Bacon, end ; the - Bear "Island band of Chippewas, at Sugar, Point. Leech Lake, Oct. 5, 1898. It w«s in fcia engagement, which ended bo disastrously to the sol- diers, that the brave major, M. C. Wil- kinson, Sergeant Butler and four privates —Olmstead. Zeibel, Lowe and Schwallen- stucker—were killed. The fight was in the nature of an am- buscade and commenced at 11:30 in the morning, a few hours after the soldiders hand landed at Sugar Point. It continued throughout Wednesday and was renewed again on Thursday morning, Oct. 6. Five of the dead were killed Wednesday, Schwallenstucker being shot down in the second day's flght. Including the civilians whccame in con- tact with bullets, fifteen wounded com- pleted the list of casualties. One littla company, numbering less than seventy- three men, suffered a greater loss than the whole Third regimen* at Santiago, but four men of that command being killed in the principal engagement of the Spanish war in Cuba. Many of the men were ba.l- ly wounded. Private Daley of St. Paul was crippled for life, a bullet through the femoral artery necessitating the amputa- tion of his right leg. Private Buschette was shot through the neck 1, Turner through the shoulder; Brown, through the mouth; Ziegler through the leg. Ur. Harris of the hospital corps, who with Private Burchardt, the hospital steward, distinguished himself by his bravery in caring for the wounded, is now stationed at Fort Snelling. Major Sheehan, the veteran Indian fighter, who was slightly wounded and shot thrice through the clothes, is still at St. Paul. Burchard is with the United States army in Alaska. Of the newspaper correspondents who were in the fight, K. C. Beaton, who rep- resented the Trtbune, is now city editor of the Seattle Times; W. H. Brill is city editor of the St. Paul Globe; Morton, who was risking his life for the St. Paul Globe, and got away just in time on Dick O'Connor's dispatch boat, Is now editor- in-chief of the News Letter, and H. L. Knappen, who got under cover for the Times, is a member of The Journal staff. Genral John M. Bacon, who was roundly criticized at the time for leading less than a company of soldiers into the hostile country, resigned from the army soon after the fight. The memory of Major Wilkinson has been commemorated by a bronze tablet at Port Snelling. NTo tributes have been paid to the memory of Sergeant Butler and his comrades in death. Butler was killed In the thick of the fight after h<> had fought his way far out into the "woods, from which the Indians poured their deadly fire. It has been suggested that a substantial monument be erected on Sugar Point in honor of these men. Old Bug burned his hut the summer after the flght and nothing of man's han- diwork is left to mark the scene of what was probably the last desperate struggle with the Indians on this continent. CONDEMNS ANARCHY Strong Resolutions Passed by Cath- olic Aid Association. j The German Roman Catholic Aid asso- ciation at its annual meeting held in Chaska, Minn., Sept. 24-25, passed the fol- \u25a0 lowing resolutions: Resolvpd, That we most sincerely deplore the horrible murder of President MeKinldy, I the beloved head of our government. In the ' strongest possible terms we express our in- | dignation at this deplorable and shocking | deed and pray to the Almighty God that lie i will preserve our country in peace and that he may graciously bless this our land and its citizens. Resolved, That we most emphatically re- sent the malicious and shameful assertions and statements, made by certain associations working against our church, using the bas- est means at their disposal, namely that the wretched murderer of our president has been an active member of the Roman Catholic I church and that the Catholic church is there- fore partially responsible for the shameful murder of our president. Whereas we most j forcibly protest against these malicious aud vile calumnies, scattered broadcast through- out this country in form of pamphlets, cir- j culars, leaflets, etc., through the mails, rai!- --! ways and other public channels, we point out the fact that the Catholic church has at all times in the past and still does condemn all anarchistic teachings and that our church ex- j ' pels all members that teach or believe in I | such anarchistic or lawless principles. We | furthermore refer to the statement made by the murderer himself that he at all times refused religion in whatever form and that he has never attended a parochial school of the Roman Catholic church. Despondent because his -age rendered him j incapable of working, William Butteriield, \u25a0 one of the first railroad men in the north- I west, but for the past few years a restaurant \u25a0 cook, ended his life with poison in his room J at the corner of Woodward and Bradley ' streets, 9t.

MORE MEN NEEDEDEmployment Agencies (annut Find

Men for Jol>h.

"Ifwe could place each laborer who ap-plies here for work in a dozen differentpositions at the same time we would notbe able to accommodate the demand," is i

the way the manager of one prominent !local employment agency put it this morn-ing. >

There is still a heavy call for men forrailroad and bridge work and for places in ]local mills and factories. The harvesterswho worked during the fajl in Minnesota

I and the Dakotas have found work so plen- |tiful in those parts that many of those '•upon whom local labor bureaus depended jhave not come back to the'city. Hundreds ;of men could be sent out for work in the iwoods within a day if they were to behad.

THEY BRING FRIENDSNorthwestern Traveler* In Rurope

Then* has been little immigration dur-ing the past three or four weeks. Eachfall there is a great decrease in the num-ber of new arrivals at the Minneapolisrailroad stations, and this year has beenno exception. "Injmigration will pick upagain in November and December," saidImmigrant Agent Groettum of the unionstation this morning. "A large numberof northwesterners who spent the summerand fall in the old countries will begin toreturn shortly, and they usually bring alarge number of friends and relativeswith them."

Workmen engaged in excavating for astorehouse in the rear of Clarkin Broth-ers' grocery store, 13 Leech street, St.Paul, discovered buried treasure yesterdayafternoon, amounting to about $10. Themoney was rnostiy in pennies and three-cent pieces, although some coins of largerdenomination were found also. The lat-est pieces were dated in the early sixties,and how they came to be buried there is amystery. Children playing about the workfound numerous coins in the dirt thrownup by the workmen, and that fact led toan investigation.

western Telephone Exchange lines in thecity were revoked by the council at anadjourned meeting last night. The meet-ing had been called to adopt the citybudget for 1902, as made up by the prun-ing committee, but Alderman Merrill em-braced the opportunity to make a reporton the methods of the telephone companyin exercising the rights granted them bythe council. He pointed out that afterasking for1 permits to make repairs oflines in certain designated streets theyhad gone to work and built new lines en-tirely, without seeking permits for thiswork or reporting their intention. He sug-gested that the permits be revoked.

"There are altogether too many usurp-ations by this company," said AldertnanS. E. Adams, who spoke after Mr. Merrill."They never ask us for any privilege oranything else they may want."

A. WAR TIME PASTOREdward JEggleston an Early Day-

Minister in Minnesota.

MADE SOAP TO EKE OUT SALARY

11lTelling' Storiea to His Sunday

School Children He DriftedInto Authorship.

I announcement of the serious illnessdward Eggleston, the prominent

author, recalls to old settlers the fact thatMr. Eggleston once made his home inMinnesota. He came here in territorialdays, hoping that the pure air of Minne-sota would benefit his health, and thatit did so his long life bears eloquent tes-timony.

In 1856 Mr. Eggleston, who is a Metho-dist minister, was assigned to the pastor-ate of the little Methodist church atTraverse de Sioux, a small town one milefrom St. Peter, then the county seat, butwhich has since disappeared from themap. The church building in which hepreached la still standing, and is now usedas a slaughter-house by a St. Peterbutcher. Traverse de Sioux was scarcelymore than an Indian trading post, andmuch of Mr. Eggleston's early work wasamong the Indians.

E. D. Hatcher, now a resident of Minne-apolis, then lived in St. Peter and knewMr. Eggleston well.

"He was a thin, sickly looking man."said Mr. Hatcher this morning, "about

B feet 10 inches in height, and wore aclose-cut beard. Everybody knew himand he was very popular. His churchhad an audience of only about ftfty peo-ple, and to eke out his small salary heand his father-in-law, a man named Mc-Graw, used to run a small soap factory.They did all the work themselves, boil-ing their own soap and selling or tradingIt to their neighbors. The McGraws, Ithink, came from Baltimore. Egglestonhimself was an easterner. He lived inTraverse de Sioux about three years andthen went to St. Paul. As I remember it,Eggleston was a great friend of JudgoFlandreau and of Rev. Moses N. Adams,a Presbyterian minister, both of whomnow live in St. Paul.

In addition to his pastorate at Traversede Sioux. Mr. Eggleston also had churchesin St. Paul. Stiilwatcr and Winona. AtWinona he began his literary work, andwhen he resigned his pastorate there itwas to go east and devote his entire timeto writing. Colonel \V. W. Williams, whoknew him in Winona, tells of his intro-duction to literary work as follows:

"Mr. Eggleston." said he. "was Incharge of the Methodist church in Winonaduring 18G4 and 1865. His determinationto write was the direct outgrowth of hisSunday school work in that town. Hehad always liked children, and his Sundayschool was the largest and moet success-ful in the city. Children loved him. andwould willinglysit for hours listening tohis stories. He was so successful as astory teller that when the suggestion wasmade that he write a few stories for themagazines he determined to try it. Thestories were written and published. Thenhe wont east and published 'The HoosierSchoolmaster,' which created a furore.

"In Winona he preached a sermon, fol-lowing the assassination of President Lin-coln, that was one of the most eloquentaddresses I ever heard. Everybody knewhim and everybody loved him. I remem-ber one time when I went from Winonato Prescott, where I had bought a paper,Mr. Eggleston wrent with me. We madea trip together, and shared the same bedin the hotel that night. He was a mostlovable man, and did much for the com-munity in which he lived. His story,'The Mystery of Metropolisville,' waswritten of incidents that occurred at RedWing, and its scenes were laid there.After he went east ,he became the editorof Appleton's Journal, which has sincesuspended publication. I am more sorrythan I can tell you to learn of his ill-ness."

PHELPS WAS PRESENTReaolutioii Anent Donation Passed

With His Sanction.The records of the state normal school

board are against Professor W. F. Phelps,of Duluth. They show that on June 15a resolution was passed accepting a pro-posed donation from the citizens of Du-luth. to be spent in completing the newbuilding.

The Journal recently published thisfact, aud called attention to the fact thatthe fund had not yet made its appearance,while work on the building progresses.Professor Phelps wrote a vehement de-nial, which was published Thursday.

The records show The Journal'sarticle substantially correct. ProfessorPhelps did not introduce the resolution,but he was present and it passed with hissanction.

The resolution was by Director J. C.Norby, and read as follows:

Whereas, President Director Wm. P. Phelpshas represented to this board that the citizensof Duluth have generously volunteered todonate the sum of $10,000 to cover the de-ficiency in the appropriations available forcompleting and e'iiipping the new normalschool at that place.

Resolved, That such proposed donation beand is gratefully accepted, and that the resi-dent director and building committee of saidschool are hereby authorized and directed,as soon as said sum is deposited in the statetreasury, to proceed to equip said school andperfect arrangements to open the same duringthe present year.

The resolution carried.

One littlacompany, numbering less than seventy-three men, suffered a greater loss thanthe whole Third regimen* at Santiago, butfour men of that command being killed inthe principal engagement of the Spanishwar in Cuba. Many of the men were ba.l-ly wounded. Private Daley of St. Paulwas crippled for life, a bullet through thefemoral artery necessitating the amputa-tion of his right leg. Private Buschettewas shot through the neck 1, Turnerthrough the shoulder; Brown, throughthe mouth; Ziegler through the leg.

Ur. Harris of the hospital corps, whowith Private Burchardt, the hospitalsteward, distinguished himself by hisbravery in caring for the wounded, isnow stationed at Fort Snelling.

Major Sheehan, the veteran Indianfighter, who was slightly wounded andshot thrice through the clothes, is stillat St. Paul. Burchard is with the UnitedStates army in Alaska.

Of the newspaper correspondents whowere in the fight, K. C. Beaton, who rep-resented the Trtbune, is now city editorof the Seattle Times; W. H. Brill is cityeditor of the St. Paul Globe; Morton, whowas risking his life for the St. PaulGlobe, and got away just in time on DickO'Connor's dispatch boat, Is now editor-in-chief of the News Letter, and H. L.Knappen, who got under cover for theTimes, is a member of The Journalstaff.

Genral John M. Bacon, who was roundlycriticized at the time for leading less thana company of soldiers into the hostilecountry, resigned from the army soonafter the fight.

The memory of Major Wilkinson hasbeen commemorated by a bronze tablet atPort Snelling. NTo tributes have beenpaid to the memory of Sergeant Butlerand his comrades in death. Butler waskilled In the thick of the fight after h<>had fought his way far out into the"woods, from which the Indians pouredtheir deadly fire. It has been suggestedthat a substantial monument be erectedon Sugar Point in honor of these men.

Old Bug burned his hut the summerafter the flght and nothing of man's han-diwork is left to mark the scene of whatwas probably the last desperate strugglewith the Indians on this continent.

CONDEMNS ANARCHYStrong Resolutions Passed by Cath-

olic Aid Association.

j The German Roman Catholic Aid asso-ciation at its annual meeting held inChaska, Minn., Sept. 24-25, passed the fol-

\u25a0 lowing resolutions:Resolvpd, That we most sincerely deplore

the horrible murder of President MeKinldy,I the beloved head of our government. In the

' strongest possible terms we express our in-| dignation at this deplorable and shocking| deed and pray to the Almighty God that liei will preserve our country in peace and thathe may graciously bless this our land and itscitizens.

Resolved, That we most emphatically re-sent the malicious and shameful assertionsand statements, made by certain associationsworking against our church, using the bas-est means at their disposal, namely that thewretched murderer of our president has beenan active member of the Roman Catholic Ichurch and that the Catholic church is there-

fore partially responsible for the shamefulmurder of our president. Whereas we most jforcibly protest against these malicious audvile calumnies, scattered broadcast through-out this country in form of pamphlets, cir- jculars, leaflets, etc., through the mails, rai!-

--! ways and other public channels, we point out

the fact that the Catholic church has at alltimes in the past and still does condemn allanarchistic teachings and that our church ex- j

' pels all members that teach or believe in I| such anarchistic or lawless principles. We |

furthermore refer to the statement made bythe murderer himself that he at all timesrefused religion in whatever form and thathe has never attended a parochial school ofthe Roman Catholic church.

Despondent because his -age rendered him jincapable of working, William Butteriield, \u25a0

one of the first railroad men in the north- Iwest, but for the past few years a restaurant \u25a0

cook, ended his life with poison in his room Jat the corner of Woodward and Bradley 'streets, 9t. Paul, yesterday. Butterfield had ,lived in St Paul forty-seven years. In 1883 !he lost a log and an arm in a railroad acci- 'dent, and had to abandon work ou the road. '

AGE HAD DISABLED HIM.
