STREET SAYINGS.

Comptroller Roche said yesterday: ''The
court house bonds that are to be issued un-
der the order of the city council will be
issued at Az per cent instead of 5 and will
run thirty Years from date. st. Paul
securities are now in such demand that
they can be readily placed at AZ per cent.
The conclusion to issue $500. 900 worth of
court house bonds will be reconsdered and
only 5000. 900 issued, as that will be enough
to carry the contracts through for a year,
and it is useless to have 500, 900 lying idle
in the treasury when we don't need them"
r.
81 remember" said Comptroller Roche,
''that Col. Hewitt used to get up excursions
on the Mississippi river only few years
ago. To be sure, the weather wasn't tor
rid, but a sail was usually taken in side
wheel steamboat and good time had. In
1877 in December there was no snow at all,
and on Christmas night it rained heavily.
An excursion was given that day and was a
big success. l remember on Christmas in
1864, the day that Savannah was taken, we
had a great time; it was so warm people
were out in their shirt sleeves, and the ex-
cursion that day was jolly one. Col.
Hewitt one year advertised an excursion
for the LIST day of January. and he had it,
but the steamboat was able to sail only
short distance, as she had to break through
the ice, but it was called an exclusion Just
The same and the band played and good
time was had. Every man on board wore
a linen buster, but he took good care to put
an OVercOat on under it,"

AAyENsKY As INSANE.
Some of the HaIIucimatiOns Under
which ZEE LabOrS.

In the probate court yesterday the exam
nation of Frank Lavinsky as to his sanity
occupied the attention of Judge McGrorty
the greater part OF the day. Lavinsky has
been confined in the county Jail for several
months under an indictment charging him
with numbering Thomas j. Law. For the
past few weeks the sheriff and deputies
have noticed that the prisoner acted queeriy,
and recently he has refused to eat or sleep
and has kept up a continual praying night
and day. At the examination yesterday he
gave no evidence that he knew there was
anything in which he was at all
concerned going on, and sat star
ing at the wall during the en-
tire examination. Sheriff Richter and
Turnkey Davis testified to the actions of
the prisoner and Dr. Craddock testified as
to his physical and mental condition.
Lavinsky's insanity dates back to before the
shooting a month or so, and was caused by
the drowning of his son, who was employed
on barge owned by Law, whom Lavinsky
is charged with numbering. When his sons
body was recovered Lavinsky said his left
hand came in contact with the body and has
been paralyZed ever since. SO firm IS he III
ibis belief that he carries his hand i'll a
sling and has lost all use of the arm and
land. The physician testified that his arm
appeared to be paralyZed and the prisoners
mental condition such as would justify his
being confined in an asylum. An order
was consequently made committing him to
the insane asylum at Rochester, to which
institution he will be taken to-day.

THE FIRST BAPTIST TROUBLES.
FEessrs. Alien and Spencer's Letters
1t is Not Accepted.

Itis Not Accepted.
AS the unpleasantness in the First Bap-
fist church Of this city is not yet settled, or,
apparently in way to be settled, some of
the members of the church were sought out
yesterday and questioned as to the situation
but not word could be obtained from them
as to the inner facts that are causing so
much disturbance in the congregation.
Messrs. Allen and Spencer positively de-
clined to be interviewed upon the subject
while those embracing the other side of the
controversy also refuse to talk. 1t seems
that on Wednesday evening last Messrs.
Allen and Spencer, whom the church
had expelled and then taken back
sent a letter to the congregation
which was duly considered but not finally
disposed of. The congregation at a pre-
vious meeting passed resolution calling
upon both these men to appear before the
church and explain why it is that they do
not walk with the church, Both de-
clined to do So and instead of going to the
church, sent the following letter. The
church refused to accede to the request
and expelled them again from the congre-
CATION. 1t is difficult to state where the
matter will end. The letter reads as fol-
lows:

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Nov. T. 1SS5.-To the
First Baptist church of st. Paul-Dear Breth-
rem: We acknowledge the receipt of your
communications OF 29th ult., and prefer to
answer i'll writing. In reference to our con-
tinual declination to take up our walk with
the church, as you choose to state it, we wish
10 say that we desire to sever our relations
with your organization in the regular and
usual manner, and under the rules of the
church we have a perfect right to do so. In
view of the events of the past two years, tax
ing allthings into consideration, we believe that
IL be would better for you and better for us that
we seek other church relations. We believe
we would be more useful elsewhere and that
it would be more agreeable to US. Both duty
and inclination point to another field.
Hoping that you will accede to our request
and grant US letters, which seems to us to be
reasonable and proper, and thus end forever
this deplorable strife, we remain fraternally
yours, j. B. SPENCER,

 A tall, Iank, weedy-looking old granger stepped into 8 Third street car yesterday, followed by woman as lank and weedy- looking as himself There could be no mis- take about their relationship of husband and wife. But they exchanged words, the woman peering curiously at the window and the man cracking his fnger-joints with re- markable success, for each explosion was al most as loud as pistol shot. At Clay and Montgomery the man got up and walked to the rear platform. The wife, not noticing him, kept staring out the window. The granger put his forefnger between his lips and cave a loud shrill whistle, which made the portly conductor jump as if bullet had struck him. The woman got up brlskly and followed her lord, who stalked along the street. still grim and taciturn.

A paper read by Dr. John O. Marble be- ! fore the Massachusetts Medical society on Cremation in it's Sanitary Aspects' is at tracting attention. He showed that by plac- ing in the ground the bodies of persons who have died from contagious diseases we plant the seeds of pestilence, not only for ourselves, but for coming generations. He declared that if the cholera comes to us, and we bury the bodies of it's victims, we render ourselves more than ever liable to future outbreaks of the disease Indeed the time might come, after successive outbreaks of the cholera and continued planting of the germs in the earth, that we should have it always with us. The earth above the bod ies in the cemeteries swarms with disease germs, and under certain conditions they will increase and contaminate the air and water In corroboration of what Dr. Marble says the Springfield Union tells of something which recently happened in Springfield. A child went to the cemetery and spent a part of the day sitting by the grave of child that had died with scarlet fever. In few days this child was taken down with scarlet fever, and the only known exposure to the disease was at the grave in the cemetery
 The cholera usually runs for six years and makes circuit of the globe before disap- bearing. The present epidemic is. now on it's third year and has proceeded from the jungles of Asia as far westward as Madrid and some other places in the Spanish penin- sula. Two years ago it ragged most severely in Egypt. Last year it was epidemic in Southern France and Italy. This year it re- sumes it's march westward at Madrid As to the probability of the plague crossing the Atlantic this year opinions differ, but that such visitation is now possible is not de- nied. Although the epidemic of 1917, the first one known, did not reach America, that of 1926, starting in the same place, was speedily communicated to this continent in two places, cases appearing almost simul- taneously at Quebec and New York. The south, and did not entirely disappear from United States territory until 1882. The epidemic of 1642 broke out in New Orleans and continued for seven years, but the visi- tations of 1865 and 1871, one beginning in New York and the other in New Orleans were of shorter duration. The track of the disease is always along the great routes of travel, and when oncs gaining foothold in country it's progress in these days is rauid
