ACriticaI Moment,

I was talking a few weeks ago with a
clergyman at the West who said he returned
10 Lis fathers house in Boston, and his
brother, son in the family, came IN
intoxicated and he said when the intoNicate !
son had retired; Mother, how do you stand
this'
''Ohn' said she. 81 have stood this good
while; but it docs not worry me now. |
found it was worrying me to death, and l
put the whole case in Gods hands, and said
%, Col | cannot endure this any longer;
take care of my son, reform him, bless him,
save him., and there | left the whole thing
with God, and shall never worry again

was talking TO me in regard TO il, II met my
brother, and said John you are III an awful
position. How SOL said he. Why mother
has told me that she has left you with God /;

He never did drink again. He went TO
the Far West and at a banquet in st Louis
given to him, lawyer just come to the city,
there were many guests, and there was much
wine poured, and they insisted that this re-
formed lawyer should take his glass of wine;
and they insisted until it became a great EN-
barrassmen1 as they said TO him; "Ah, you
don seem TO have any regard for us and
you have no sympathy with our hilaritjes.' "
Then the man lifted the glass and said;
Gentlemen, there was in Boston some wears
ago man who, though he had a beautiful
wife and two children, fell awav from his
integrity and went down into the ditch of
drunkenness He was reformed by the grace
of God and the prayers of his mother, and

scarcely the thing. In Ireland and
England this same state OF affairs pre-
walls. Right here among yourselves
when you get up in the world, have
your corner lots and bank ac-
counts, you feel you would be losing
caste did you take the pledge.
You think 1t somewhat right to take q
glass when you want it. You would
not go into rum hole, but nice, or
derby place for gentlemen. OF course,
that's all right. You rich and more ed
ucated ones think you ought to be taking
glass from time to time. When your
friends come to visit you the glass must
go round. swell, Bishop Ireland is not
here" you say. The wine you drink is
good and costly, such as you can afford.
No cheap stuff. | address these words
to you specially. want them to hit you.
| would enlist your sympathy in this
temperance movement. Believe me,
there is danger. don't say all will go
too far. How many have taken the So
cial glass and never left it? Years aft
erwards we meet them, their cheeks
are f1abby and their hands shake. Soon
we hear that a respectable friend has
fallen. Do not enter on the slippery
paths.
Your sons are growing up around you.
Believe me, many breakers await them
on the
BILLOwY SEA OF LIFE.
These young men are to inherit your
fortunes. Surely you want to leave
them to those who will do honor to your
memory. Give them the example. The
boy will get taste for drink. His
father drank before him. He will think
it respectable to follow in the paths over
which you tread in safety. For the sake
of yourselves and children avoid it.
You are glad Of the high position your
clergy have taken in the cause of tenn
perance. Lift yourself with us and be
on your guard that you throw no ObSta-
Giles in our way. IT'S hard to intiict tenn
perance on the poor man when his en-
plOyer must have his social glass.
The cure must come from the upper
strata of society. We have had two
public banquets lately-One given by
the Irish-American ana the other by the
Catholic citizens of st. Paul-and there
spoke we'll of the banquets, and one pa
per, referring to the laSt-named BAN
quet, said that it was perfect success,
even to the exclusion of wine. II we
had met there and quaffed our cham
payne, with what grace could we after
wards have approached the poor men
regarding temperance? My friends, you
have in the past attained fame as tenn
perance community. Let me beg of you
on all occasions to maintain your repu
tatiOn, and when any public dinner is
given or social gathering occurs. let
wine and whisky and beer be far from
you.

mas Iaken GOOu care OF.
The court martial proceedings in the
eases of five of the captive Indian
scouts (White Mountain ApacheS) who
last summer, while serving in Gen.
Miles command, at the San Carlos

commanding officer and deserted, have
just been published. These Indians

two were private soldiers. The charges
against them were uniform and the
sentence in each case was diShOnorable

labor for life. The reviewing authority
has committed the sentences to ten

any Indians on the plains.

a house block distant. No other pas
sengers were injured, although the en-
CINE crashed about ten feet into the car.
The coroner's jury rendered verdict
which censured the engineer, Ray
Hitchcock, for carelessness in
not keeping a proper lookout
and the railroad company for
not providing proper frost windows in
the cab. The jury had about prepared
a verdict of manslaughter for Hitch
cock, and the authorities were instruct
ed to arrest and take cargo of him, when
a letter was received from Judge ClOugh
in his behalf, which altered their de-
cisiOn. Hitchcock was much affected and
could scarcely speak when called upon
to testify at the inquest. His story, al
though self-convicting, was told in a
straightforward, honest way. When
asked by the district attorney il he did
not consider himself guilty of careless
ness, he replied in the affirmative.

church may lead me anywhere. The
pastors of the Methodist church are
merely field officers, and they and you
belong to the Methodist Episcopal
church. The departure of our greatly
beloved brother who had been with us
so long, he, who had been so hOnored by
you, and so kindly treated, should not
cause dissension; for he had a right to
do as he did. He had right to 60.
''Let no sharp words be said by any
member of this church against our hon
Ored brother, whom you have known
and loved so long, nor against any who
have gone with him. l say God bless
HIM and God bless all of them. In your
new pastor, who is here, you will find q
good man. When went to MinneapO-
lis and stated to his pariShiOners there
the needs of this church in the emerg-
ency that has arisen, they cried, why,
certainly, take him. though they parted
with Rev. Mr.. Holman with tears and
deep regret. Come all of you tonight
He will occupy the pulpit, and l want
you to hear the gospel from his lips
Rev. Mr.. Holman then announced the
meetings of the week, and church was
out. Many remained to greet the new
pastor and shake hands with the
bishop. +
THE NEW PASTOR. Z.
Another good-siZed audience was
gathered together in the First Nj. T..
church last evening. Rev. +. D. Ho1-
man, the new pastor, preached the SER
mon, and fine effort it was. MIR. HOl-
man has a pleasing delivery, uses fine
language, and is, in short. minister of
extraordinary attainments in the line of
his work. His text was the story of
Nathaniel. as contained in John i, 47-51,
and he preached very orthodox SER
mon, making no illusions to the recent
divisions of the church.
Mr.. Holman is well known in st. Paul,
having been pastor of the Bates Avenue
Methodist church until two years ago,
when he was transferred to Minneap-
oils.

BUSINESS In HIS EYE.
Judge Lilly, OF CrOOkston, Look.
ing for q Land Office Position.

Judge James w. Lilly, of Crookston,
is now at the Merchants. He is visit
ing the city partly for pleasure, but
chiefly with business in his eye. 1t is
of especial interest to himself, but Incl
dentally of considerable interest to the
upper Northwest. Although now for
the first time stated in print, it has been
for ,me time an open secret in Crooks
ton that Important changes were soon
certain to occur in the land office there.
The present receiver, Mr. Smith. is
lying at deaths door, and aside
from the probability of va
cancy caused by the grim monarch
there are political reasons why
a vacancy will enSue even though he
were to recover. The present register,
MIR. Aaker, is Republican whose term
of office is nearly out, and the probabiIi-
ties are thought to be against his reap
pointment. Judge Lilly is candidate
for the first vacancy. He has secured
the written Endorsement of many OF the
leading men of the section and to-day is
to have an interview with Mr.. DOMAIN to
enlist that political magnate in his sup
port.

A SUDDEN DEATH.
Michael Daily, ST., Found Dead in
His Bed Yesterday MORNING.

Michael DAILY, ST., father of County
Commissioner DAILY, was found dead in
yesterday morning. Mrs. Daily arose
early and went to rouse her hus-
band about 7 O'clock to attend
mass. He did not respond and when a
physician was summoned it was found
that life was extinct, death having re
suited from heart disease. tits singu-
lar coincidence that the dead mans IA
ther and brother were both found dead
in exactly the same way. The deceased
was siXty-eight years old, and was a
pioneer of Minnesota, having come to
the state in 1852, settling in st. Paul
two years later. He leaves a widow,
two daughters and three sons. The
funeral services will be held at the
cathedral at o'clock Tuesday morning.

AT THE FIRST METHODIST.
Bishop Foss Preached to a Lars

Bishop Foss Preached to Large
CongregatiOn-Dr. Smith Had a
Right to Go.
II will preach the sermon" said
Bishop FOss, coming to the rescue when
the members of the First Methodist
church were wondering who would fill
the pulpit yesterday morning. The
bishop kept his word, and the remaining
portion of the congregation who still
stick to the Methodist faith, turned out
to hear him.
Every pew in the church was filled
and no one would have known, by the
size of the congregation and the deep
interest evinced in the sermon, that the
Rev. Sam Smith had left. 1t developed
the full strength of the First church,
and also developed something else.
Many of Sam Smiths followers, mem
bers of this church once, were at the
Grand opera house to hear him, and yet
every pew in the First was occupied.
the two factions ever found room
enough in the First NJ. E. church?
AS such thing was, and is, inn
possible, the above state of affairs
gives rise to the suspicion that
many outsiders were present who at
tended merely forucuriosity, expecting
sensational developments. Or else
great many back number members who
had long since ceased to attend church
brushed up their waning religious in
tereSt and attended to swell the size of
the congregation. At any rate the fact
was plain that "they were there"
Bishop FOSS took his sermon from the
thirteenth chapter of st. John, thirty
first and thirty-Second verses. "There-
fore, when he was gone out, Jesus said,
now is the Son of Man glorified, and
God is glorified in Him." The bishop
spoke extemporaneOusly and was eX-
ceedingly eloquent. AT times his voice
trembled with emotion AID many of
the congregation were visibly affected.
Adhering strictly to his text, not one
word was uttered about the recreant
Sam. But it came, that which
MANY WE'RE LOOKING FOR,
as supplement to the sermon. At it's
conclusion the bishop advanced a little
nearer to the congregation and they
opened their ears little wider in eX-
pectancy.
Beloved" said the bishop, lowering
his voice, sin view of recent events
within this church, l wish to say that
we, assembled here, are not merely
members of local Christian organiza-
ton. We are something more than
that. We are Meth0dists," raising his
voice to high pitch. my duty in the

THE PORTER KILLED
In an Accident on the Omaha
Near Superior Yesterday.

Word was received in st. Paul yester-
day that early in the morning the north
bound train on the North Wisconsin
division of the Omaha road, that left
st. Paul Saturday night at $50, was
wrecked at Hawthorn, a small station
in Douglas county near Superior City.
The Pullman sleeper was telescoped
and the colored porter, John Anderson,
of st. Paul, instantly killed. The en-
CINE was broken in such manner as to
allow the steam to escape into the
sleeper, and there the porter was scalded
to death. His rooms are at "a East
Sixth street. He leaves a young wife,
but no children. AndersOn's BODY
was taken charge of by an undertaken

Beyond slight shaking up and severe

WHAT KEPT LINCOLN AWAKE
Not the Events OF the War, But the
Syracuse POstOffice.

Syracuse PostOffice.
Chicago Herald.
During the darkest days of the war, a
Philadelphia man remembers, there was
a squabble in Syracuse over the ap-
pOintment OF postmaster. Two fac
tons of the Republican party had cam
didates, and each had sent to Washing
ton numerOusly signed petitions for the
appointment OF its favOrite. Finally, to
get the matter settled a delegation,
composed of the wealthieSt men of the
town and several of the most prominent
ministers and lawyers, headed by Gen.
LeaVenWOrth, visited the national CAPT
tai and secured an audience with PreSi-
dent Lincoln. Gen. Leavenw0r h had
carefully prepared his speech to Mr..
Lincoln. and it ran something like this:
mir. President. it is with great reluc-
lance that we intrude upon you this
morning. We appreciate the awful re-
spOnsibilitieS and perpleXitieS of your
position and do not forget that the very
life of the nation is in your hands. But.
Mr. President, the people of the great,
loyal North are at your back. and they
are praying, sir, that your life may be
spared and that you may be given
strength to carry this war through to a
successful ISSUE"
Mr.. Lincoln listened to Gen. Leaven-
worth with some Impotence until he
reached this point, and then interrupted
him with:
l assure you, my dear sir, that it isn't
the war or the army that is worrying the
life out of me; it is that Syracuse post
office that is keeping me awake nights.
Gen. LeavenwOrth did not finish his
speech. The delegation presented their
case in the briefeSt manner, and felt
more comfortable when they reached
Pennsylvania avenue than they did in
the presence of the president.
