Annual Meeting of the Good Sister.
hood of Bethany.

hood of Bethany.
The eleventh annual meeting of the Sis
terhood of Bethany occurred at the Friends
church yesterday with a good attendance.
The physicians report showed Bethany
home to be singularly free from fatal ill
ness during the past year. only one adult
and twelve infants having died. The
causes of death in most cases were cOnstitu-
tional and hereditary. Mrs. Mendenhall
presented her report as treasurer. The
total expense of the year was 50, 1874, OF
which S711.0S remains unpaid, and there
is only S25. SO in the treasury. The report
of the secretary. Mrs. Walker, was very
comprehensive document, in which all the
changes in the management and the details
of the work were fully explained. The
number received in the home during the
year was 95. of whom 20 were adults; num-
Der of births, 40; deaths, II; returned to
friends, 81; sent to situations, 81; adOptlons
from the ONE. 16; refused to remain, 20;
in home at the end of the year, 81: total
number in home during the year, 80.
Great care is taken by the management
regarding the adoption of children from
the home. 1t is desirable that the
little ones be given to parents who are
Christians and who will raise them to be
God-fearing men and women, and not to
those who want them for the work they can
be made to do. Mrs. Van Cleve read her
report as president 1t was devoted princi-
pally to defense of the act of the Sister
hood in accepting the income from fines re-
ceived by the city from keepers of houses of
ill-fame. She deplored the action of the
present administration in resembling that
means of revenue. The home is now with
out any regular mears of support. The
lady then discussed at length ways and
means for placing the home on safe inan-
cial basis. The remainder of the meeting
was devoted to a general financial talk. and
after prayer by DR.. Talbot the meeting adj

A Railroad and a Plumbing Ordi-

tons.
At the meeting of the council last even
ing lengthy communication was read from
Mayor Arnes vetoing the st. Paul & North
ern Pacific Railway company's ordinance,
granting that company the right to cross
streets on the East side at whatever points
it pleased. The mayor gave as his reason
for so doing that he did not think it right
for corporation to be granted more rights
than private citizens. He thought that be-
fore passing such an ordinance the council
would do well to find out by what right the
company were already crossing streets on
the East side. He also held that the rail-
ways should be compelled to pay for these
grants, as when an opposition company
wants anything from another company it
has to pay big price for it. After the
reading of the ordinance Aid. Haugan made
a spread-eagle speech. in which he said it
seemed to him as though the mayor was
playing directly into the hands of the com
pany. He said that the reasons for not ap-
proving the ordinance had nothing
to do with the case, and hoped
the ordinance would pass. Aid. johnson
lOllOW6O VIII lew T6LndTkS, III WHICH n6
said that veto of the ordinance was Just
what the Northern Pacific company wanted.
If the council did net pass the ordinance
over the mayors veto there would be
trouble sorever after, and suit would have
to be begun whenever there was a railroad
crossing wanted. IF there are any gentle
men here who want to put the railroad
company where they can dictate to us, and
NJ tn 7 RI lyon ha fhnx
are. 1t Will be very poor policy for us to
allow this company to think they can do
just as they please. We must take this
thing just as it stands" A vote was then
taken. and as there were sixteen who voted
to pass the ordinance over the mayors veto,
it became law.
ANOTHER THE SAME WAY.
A communication from Mayor Ames was
read vetoing the ordinance to amend an Or
dinance entitled an ordinance to regulate
the construction, repair and removal of
buildings in the city of Minneapolis. The
mayors veto. he said. was based on inter
views with prominent plumbers upon whom
he had called. The cheap plumbing in
hundreds of houses which have been built
for sale or rent" said the communication.
has already cost our citizens many valu-
able lives, and 1 recommend the most rigid
laws to enforce security against bad plumb
ing" The ordinance was passed over the
veto.

FIGHTING OVER THE POLICE.
The Whole Matter Deferred--Elag
Officer Neaton Rez1gns.


At the council last evening the mayor
announced the following police appoint
ments: Lieut.. Col. Charles R. Hill to be
chief of police with the rank of colonel.
vice Col. NJ. g. Chase. resigned; Maj. John
Landberg to be lieutenant colonel of police,
vice Hill, promoted; John n. Priester to
be major of police. vice Landberg, pro-
noted; Alexander j. Mullen to be sergea Mt
of the municipal court, vice Sergt. George
r. Seaton, resigned; Peter Mclaughlin to
be patrolman, vice Mullen, promoted.
The matter was referred to the committee
on police. The resignation of Sergt.
Seaton created considerable surprise. as did
the promotion of A. j. Mullen and the ap-
pOintment of Peter Mclaughlin. When
the committee on police reported there was
a storm raised, for all the appointments
were confirmed except that of j ohm Priester.
A minority report was made by
Aid. Mareck, who moved that all the ap-
pointments be confirmed. A motion to
adopt the majority report was adopted and
then Aid. johnson asked the council to
adopt a resolution calling upon the mayor
to discharge all the patrolmen he appointed
before the exposition. In speaking to his
motion, Mr.. johnson said that he thought
it was time that steps were taken to cut
down the expenses of the city. Aid. Cooley
differed materially from Aid. johnson, and
contended that it was poor economy to dis
charge patrolmen, as there were not enough
now Mr. Johnson wanted to know why
il was. then. that policemen always went
around in groups of three or four. Aid.
Cooley retorted that it was easy to find fault
with the police force, as Mr.. johnson seemed
determined to do. A motion to lay the
whole matter over to the next regular meet
ing was made by Aid. Morse, and the mo-
ton was carried.

failed to do anything, and then sailor
went over with like result. The officers
kept telling the passengers that there was
no danger. 1t was nearly two hours after
the accident when the flags and signals
were run up, ana the signal gun was fired.
This was little pop which could not be
heard half mile away. Rockets were
also fired. The passengers grew more
and more excited, and after steamer
answered our signals, but sailed away
from US, perfect pandemonium prevailed.
There was no order Whatever, and it was
every man for himself. Officers, crew and
passengers ran about the deck, swearing
and cursing.
"Finally, pilot boat hove in sight and
came toward us. We signalled, but those
on The boat, as one told me afterward,
could not make out what was wanted, as
the signals were given so eXcitedly. Had
they not noticed that the ship lay on the
water motionless they would have sailed
away. Through their glasses they saw
that the passengers had life-preservers on.
They put out a little boat to find out what
was the matter. The boats had been got
out, but there was no discipline in ham
ding them. 1t would naturally be sup
posed that the crew would have a
station at such time, but there wac alb
solutely no discipline whatever. A rush
was made for the boats by the men, petty
officers and tiremen and stokers, who
acted like pack of bowling wild beasts.
The women and children were utterly
disregarded. The first man to get into
the boats was a Canadian. He was or
dered out, but refused to obey the
order. The boats that we got out were
manned by passengers aud some of the
stewards. Finally, in the distance a
three-masted schooner was seen, and the
pilot boat went after her and signalled
her, and an hour was lost in getting this
assistance"
