TELEPHONES FOR a YEAR.

Extensions. improvements ana
Present Status OF the Exchange.
The years work of extensions, improve
ments and repairs TO the telephone system
OF Minneapolis has been completed ana the
result shows that this important branch OF
municipal enterprise has kept pace with
everything else The years business
shows an increase of nearly 40 per cent,
which is sufficiently tiattering. When zen.
eral Superintendent McKinstry took hold OF
this territory in the summer he pledged
himself to improve the service, and That he
has made good his promise Will De conceded
by the most captiOuS kicker IN the city.
He has SHARED neither time nor expense IN
improving. not only the operative service,
but has made great extensions and additions
during the year. which may be briefly sum
married as follows:
DURING 1885.
New subscribers obtained. .......... 347
Miles of long poles erected. ...... 81
Miles of new wire strung .......... 800
Miles of new wire transferred to
poles. OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. lou
Feet of conductor cables strung ...... 1000
Total cost of improvements......-.. S16, 600
This latter figure does not include the
cost of removing and retitting the Office in
the ilDDpr SlOTN Ol IlC CITY HAIL. WHICH Ill
rectly benefits subscribers, as it carried with
it an improvement of the signal boards and
consequent perfection of the connections
made. The Minneapolis Office is now held
up as model exchange and its officers
point with pride to the systematic state
to which they have reduced their business.
There are now l. 097 subscribers in Mime
apolis. but these subscribers are practically
connected with about the same number in
ST. Paul, and as Minneapolis has trunk line
connections with twenty-nine other towns
and cities, a Minneapolis subscriber may
virtually talk to 5000 different subscribers
thrOUhghOut the state. There are thirteen
direct wires between Minneapolis and st.
Paul. and on the outside trunk lines the
average number of daily calls is 100 III each
direction There are 2,450 long poles in
Minneapolis and sixty miles of pole lines,
making a total of $50 miles of outside wire
through the city. There are seventeen Oper-
atorS and each answers daily average Of
al calls, or a total of about 800 calls
every day. The manager has estimated the
average distance between subscribers to be
a half mile, which permits some interesting
calculations. If instead Of using the tele-
phone, a messenger were sent for each mes
sage the distance Travelled would be 3, $50
miles daily, or l. 12j. 90 miles during the
past year. Allowing four miles to the
hour, which is very fast time for the aver
age messenger. the time saved by the tele-
phone during the year of 800 working days
was 3S1, 250 hours, or II years, months, l
week, , days and 10 hours. And yet we
howl!
The present management of the telephone
system here is as follows: j. P. McKinstry,
general superintent of this territory; II. F.
Stevens, cashier, with headquarters at Min
neapolis: j. w. Christy, manager of the
AIinnpannliS exchange.

sPIRITUAL1 bookkeeping.
Rev. j. l.. Scudder Shows How the
Angels Ia eep Accounts.

Rev. John. L. Scudder occupied the pull
pit of Plymouth church last evening and
delivered sermon in which the truths he
soughs to impress upon the minds of his
hearers were aptly illustrated by COMPARE
son with the single and double-entry book
keeping. The divine took his text from
St. PauTs Epistles to the Ephesians IN
which the apostle says:
''But what things were gain to me, those
counted loss for Chist'
Mr.. Scudder started out by saying that
every man should have some system of
bookkeeping. Memory is poor register
of deeds; and society is full of misunder
standings to the unraveling of which the
legal profession gives no little attention.
Every man, but a pauper. is
at once payer and payee, so
his personal history is inseperable
from his transactions with his fellows.
The methods of bookkeeping vary from the
pocket diary to the big ledger in the bank
er's Office. The single entry system is
simple and readily understood but is m
calmly and not calculated to correct its own
mistakes. The essential idea of the double
entry system is that each item is twice en-
tered and thus becomes a recognition of the
others gain-a debit for you means credit
for the merchant. and vice versa
THE BOOKS OF HEAVEN
show how temporal loss can be eternal gain.
Every true Christian can point to each woe
as a debit but can turn to another page and
find a precious credit. All is not loss that
looks as loss, but often our losses are the
conditions of future good. For instance, a
great boot and shoe firm of Bosten has been
known to pay $4,000 day for
advertising. Here is seeming
loss accompanied by compromising
gain. for the firm does SIS, 600 business day
a sa result of this expenditure i'll advertising.
Go into gymnasium. You see young men
running and sweating and Juggling. You
say why this unnecessary eXertion; this
loss of tissue?" They answer:
go WAY. YOU DUDE;
our present labor is for future glory. If
you attend the boat race you can stand on the
bank and applaud u.s." Say to the student
in his garnet, Leave your books" and he
will answer: 81 am educating myself at a
loss q time for the present, but for the
gain of lifetime"
So with religion. The ills of mortal life
lead to the golden acquisitions in the realms
of spiritual life. Disappointment are death
to conceit and humble our naughty pride.
Bodily infirmitieS teach patience. Privation
is the road to perfection. When man loses
his right hand his left develops. Thus loss
of property often leads to development of
spiritual power. Saint Paul was pauper
as pOssessor of earthly riches, but spirit
ually millionaire.

The Irish League.

the Davith branch of the Irish National
league was an unusually well-attended one.
P. II. McPartln manipulated the gavel, as
usual. Thomas Comfy, the well-known at
torney, made an interesting speech in which
he fully outlined the aspect of affairs in the
British Isles. P. II. Gibbons delivered an
Grafton on the Irish soldier, which dealt
with the well known bravery of the sons of
Erin on the battle fields of the world. A
literary committee of six was appointed to
select speakers for future meetings, so that
due announcements could be made, and the
public know whom they might hear.

FIRM AS A ROCK
Describes the Condition of the Re-
atty Market at the Seasons Close.

atty Market at the Seasons Close.
There is very little to say for the realizes
tate market, further than that the advent of
winter, which is understood, in measure,
to close the season. finds the prices varying
very little from those of last spring. If
there has been any change it has been to
increase and not lower, as was predicted by
certain dealers. Altogether the market can
be said to be in very encouraging condi-
dition. The volume of business is certainly
larger than at the corresponding time in
1884, and the demand is certainly stronger.
LAST WEEKS TRANSFERS.
During the week deeds were filed with
the register of deeds as follows:

Arrest Of a Rorse-Thief,

1t will be remembered that some months
ago youthful scapegrace stole a horse
from W. II. Varney of this city and sold it
in St. Paul. The boy, whose name is
Frank Clark, was arrested and tired. the
jury disagreeing. A new trial was had and
the defendant was acquitted, it having not
been very clearly shown that there was a
wilful intent on the part of Clark to steal
the horse.
On Saturday Marshal johnson of Farm
ington came to Minneapolis and arrested
Clark on warrant charging him with hav-
ing stolen horse from Jordon Eagel of
Pennington some time last spring. Clark
was taken to Pennington yesterday. The
complaining witness runs hotel and livery
stable in Pennington, and young Clark
hired horse from him but failed to return
the animal.

SUNDAY SAUNTERINGS.

81 see the newspapers are hard at work
on their annual reviews" remarked bust
ness man yesterday, but l hardly think
they will give them with the JUNCTION
they did two years ago; 1888 was the
remarkable year in the history of Mime
apolis, and most business men will tell you
it has not been equaled since. 1t was then
that everything seemed to have wings and
that great crowds thronged the streets and
the city was constantly filled with strangers
1t was wonderful. But them" with sigh,
that was under Democratic administra-
ton, and Minneapolis, with Democratic
administration, can beat the world"

The exposition committee on building is
to make a trip with view to gathering
pointers on the best style of building. The
trip will be long one, but the wonderful
part is that it will be at private expense.
Not dollar from the fund will be used to
foot the bills. If we could only make
aldermen out of those committeeman. But,
then, what have they done that such ILL
luck should be wished them.

The Northwestern editor of one of the Chi
cago papers. who holds down assignments at
the same time on Minneapolis paper, is
becoming famous not only for versatility,
but for profound depth of thought as well.
With equal facility he can circulate small

esis. His gigantic intellect best manifests
itself in disquisitions Oh electricity and the
public owes him the deepest gratitude for
expounding the minor workings of the cleo
trio motor after fashion that set Vande-
poole bv the ears. Next thing we know he
will be promoted to the position of predict
