A Panic Averted.

Yesterday, about noon, as the dele
gates were pouring out of Market hall,
little incident occurred which caused
the bravest heart to cease beating for
moment. There were two ladies COM
ing up Seventh street, each wheeling
a baby carriage containing q child, and
they appeared in a quandary, TO know
how to get through the mass Of Repub-
lican humanity that was heading to-
ward them. Just as the head of the
column reached Donohoe Il Brennen's
Gents Furnishing establishment, 25
East Seventh street, the leaders noticed
some very attractive hats and neckties
in the window and went in to see the
entire stock. which is quite complete
and reasonable in price. Of course; like
sOmany sheep the entire crowd rushed
pell nell into the stnre-and left the
ladies to pursue the journey unmolested.

ELDER GRAY's FLOCK
Hire a Hall and Protest Against
Closing Their Church.


The trouble between the factions of
the Pilgrim Baptist church seems little
nearer an end than four weeks ago.
Last evening the followers of Elder
Gray held meeting at Odd Fellows
hall on WabaSha street to consider the
situation, and about forty members of
the church, most of them women. were
present. After considerable talk by the
pastor. in which his opponents were
rOundly denounced, committee
of five was appointed to draft
resolutions expressing the sentl-
ments of the members present.
This body reported preamble and res
olutions, which were adopted, setting
forth that majority composing the
membership of the Pilgrim Baptist
church assembled the 9th day of Sep
TENDER in Odd Fellows hall, being de-
tered from worshiping God in quiet
and peaceful manner in Pilgrim Baptist
church by portion of the trustees and
three deacons of said church, because
they would not be subjected to the ig-
nOrant whims and notions of a minority
who had departed from the doctrine Of
the New Testament and all church
policy, as laid down for the government
of Baptist churches. That the self
constituted adviser of the rebellious
faction sent to the pastors residence
Tuesday morning, Sept 4, document,
the purport or which was: I'VE, the
officers, deac0ns and trustees and ma
jority of the decent members, declare
the pulpit vacant"
1t was stated that tie majority had
acted as Christians throughout all the
unpleaSantuess; had labOred hard and
had given their earnings for the
erection of the church and the pay
ment of its Indebtedness. Nearly four
weeks had elapsed since service had
been held and note for l,200 which
fell due the 1St inst, had not been
taken cogniZance of by the majority.
The latter had not the interest of the
church at heart, otherwise they would
waive their prejudices and unite with
the majority in an effort to lift the debt
hanging over the congregation. Con-
tidence was Teaffirmed in Elder Gray
and attention was invited TO called
church meeting the 23rd of August,
when sixty-two legal members against
forty-eight declared their preference
for his retention as pastor of the church,
the rumOrs against his moral character
after thorough investigation having
been proven false and without the least
color of truth or justice.

THE BURLINGTON CUT.
An Effort Being Made to Stop 1t

An EfIOrC BENG Maue TO stop 1t.
The Burlington cut is troubling some
of the roads good deal, while others
do not care much about it. An effort
was made yesterday to fix the rate at
S12 for the round trip to Columbus and
back. This was done for the purpose
of preventing the rate from going lower.
The Milwaukee d st. Paul and the st.
Paul II Kansas City are DESTROYS of pre-
venting any farther cutting, but it is
not likely that the effort to
hold rates will succeed as the
other roads are very indifferent. Mr..
Teasdale, of the Northwestern line,
said yesterday that his road would
probably stick to the original Sl4.2J
rate. He was Indifferent as to what
the other roads did. The vestibule
trains over the Northwestern road,
were so literally patrOniZed that he felt
no interest in the cut whatever. The
Wisconsin Central feared that other
cutting would follow, and that rates
would go much lower than at present.
Railroad men expressed the opinion
that rates would go to IS after the
tickets were put on the market.

Let us, on the day named, next Fri

we appreciate their efforts TO build up
and develop the material and mechan-
ical industries of our state; that we, too,
love art and music, and that by our at
tendance, by our voice, or by more sub
stantial aid. if necessary, we will en-
courage them year by year in making
this Exposition a magnificent display of
Jne material STOWGn dllu QeNelOptllelJ
aud social advancement of Minnesota.
Let US on that day also remember how
kindly and numeroHSly the people Of
our sister city responded to our invita-

dren will sometimes quarreD, are now
each year moving rapidly toward that
point where their interests and pros

fair sky and prosperity to the other.
Remembering all these matters, I
hereby order and direct, so far as | have
power so to do, that all the people of
st. Paul, rich and poor, large and small,

AS usual at this season of the year,
when the public schools are opened, the
superintendent finds that the rooms in
some of the buildings are not sufficient
to accommodate the pupils. This is
one OF the most serious problems that
the board of education has to deal with,
and year after year it has to call for APP
preparation of money to erect new
school buildings, but with all it can do
it cannot keep up with the rapidly IN
creasing demands of population.
