SOCIAL SAUCE.

The dramatic entertainment and
dance given by the Harmonic society
last evening at their hall on the corner
of Thirtieth street and Twentieth ave-
nue. south was great success. The
hall was comfortably filled with the
members and friends of the society, who
took great interest in the festivities.
1.-The King of the Waltz" comedy of
unusual interest, was put on the young
people of the society in highly dra-
matte and creditable style. The play
was very funny and the appreciative
gathering was kept in continual
laughter. During the evening the au-
dience was rendered grand treat in
the way of a musical concert by their
favOrite DAM orchestra. Frank DAM
was present and conducted. At II
o'clock the floor was cleared and a So
couple until a late hour. A social sing
concluded the entertainment.
The first of series of cooking lessons
will be given this afternoon at $3.50
o'clock by Prof. Place at 600 First ave-
nue. south. The ladies in charge have
been hard at work for long time to
secure members enough to pay the nee
essary expenses, and it is their desire
that all persons interested in the art of
cookery will avail themselves of the
grand opportunity and be present.
The West hotel parlors tonight will
be the scene of merry gathering of peO-
pie from Michigan. They will assemble
for the purpose of organizing an assO-
citation to be known as the Michiganders.
When organized the society will ar
range to have series of entertainments,
and also to have an annual banquet.

A STRONG SERMON.
Rev. James Thwing Takes to the

Rev. Charles f. Thwing, of Plymouth
church, continued his special course of
sermons to young men. These sermons
are written out of the experiences of
young men. He said:
These testimonies are very striking.
would call attention to the almost unan-
imous opinion that success is won by
the application of mental and physical
powers according to righteous principles
to the problems of life. 1t is not dis
honesty, but honesty; it is not negli-
gence, but faithfulnesS: it is not vice,
but virtue, that triumphs. You may
succeed if you are dishonest man. You
do succeed one OF two years because you
are dishonest man, but over the world
and through time you do succeed by
reason of your honesty. AS John
Wanamakcr said: Success is won by
thinking, trying, toiling, trusting in
God; that is all my biography" Virtue
and not vice, justice and not injustice,
temperance and not intemperance,
purity and not RIGHTEOUSNESS, earnest
ness and not Indifference, brain keen
to see, strong to grasp, cautious yet
aggressive, heart mighty to feel, and
Il will mighty to choose and to hold
these are the yictors in life's struggle.

If you want TO succeed in every worthy
work, a man worthy to have the word
UNDERSIGNED three times, be man who
is man because you are more than a
man. q man WHO is man because you
are Christian.

About two dozen fiery-eyed socialists
and a few anarchists and Indifferent
women attended the socialist meeting
at DANA hall last evening. The gath
ering was comparatively small with
that OF the few weeks past, but
the Proceedings were listened to
with great precaution. A. M. Gardner,
of New York, who is the organizer OF
this association in Minneapolis, was
present and let out very wordy speech
that would have shocked the feelings OF
the most rampant anarchist. lie
spoke in relation to the pres
ent railroad strike, but nothing
of interest was revealed. W.. IL.
Puck, a member OF the organization,
made short but fierce speech against
monopoly. A. f. BraytOn, the secre-
tary. spoke at length on the city affairs.
He dealt with the city authorities IN
very severe manner as to their actions

the city council passed an ordl-
nance to compel the horse car
company to put conductors on all lines.
If looks as though something is wrong.
Net more than one-half of the lines i'll

conclusion of his remarks the following
resolutions were adopted UNANIMOUSLY,
and will be presented tothe city council:
First-That cars should be run more
rapidly.
Secondhand cars be run oftener at
morning and night to accommodate the
wOrkingmen.
Third-Ihat the street car company
be compelled to put conductors OH all
lines.
MI. Brayton, the secretary, said that
a strenuous effort would be made, politl-
caIly, to unite the Anti-Poyerty, Anti

is unanimously in favor OF Ames Tor

THE EFFECTS OF sKEPrICIsM.
1t Has Removed the Worst Wrongs

III III as fsemOyeu the w OrSt wrongs
From Which Society Suffered.
II. NJ. Simmons preached at the First
Unitarian church on 1.-THE Effects of
Skepticism." He said that many as
sumed that skepticism had brought
harm to society. On the contrary, it
has removed the worst wrongs which
society has ever suffered. Those perSe-
cutiOnS which fill SO many of the worst
pages of medieval and modern history,
were first opposed by skeptics, to whom
we owe the blessings of liberation to-
day. CASTILLO, who was the first advo-
cate of liberation in christendom, was
denounced as an infidel, and Calvin de-
Scribed him in preface to the New
Testament as zone who had been chosen
by SATAN" federation found its next
advocate in SocinuS, and was so de-
Tended by his followers that a famous
Protestant writer in 1857 called it THAT
Socinian dogma, the most dangerous of
all those of the Socinian sect" 1t was
still further helped by the skeptics
MOntaigne and Bayle, and most of all
by Voltaire. Speaking of Voltaire's
work against persecution, even so eau
tiOuS writer as Lecly says he had
"done more to destroy the greatest of
human curses than any other of the
sons of men," These skepticS also car
ried on a long warfare with the eStab-
lished evil of judicial torture, and the
same writer says; Sin almost every
country the abolition of torture was at
last effected by a movement, which the
church opposed, and by men whom she
had cursed" And many are the later
reforms. from the anti-Slavery cause to
the work for peace today, which have
counted sO-called intidelS among their
chief helpers.
Nor does the relaxation of the old re
ligious doctrines and terrors seem to
have harmed society in the least. Those
doctrines in all their rigor-and those in
more fearful form than we can now con-
ceive-had supreme control of Christen-
dom for over thousand years, to show
what they could do. Yet of that period
in the great Byzantine empire, Lecky
says, sit constituted, without single
exception, the most thoroughly base
and despicable form which civilization
has yet assumed" And Western Eu-
rope, at the close of that thousand
years, was little better than barbarouS.
In Catholic England in the fourteenth
century, crimes against life were eigh-
teen times as frequent as now, ac-
cording to Mr.. Pixies study of the rec
ordS. And in Protestant England in
he sixteenth century, crimes were so
common, that it was thought necessary
to hang 1000 men a year-and Holm
shed estimates that the executions in
the reign Of Henry the Eight alone
were 72,000. With all the skepticism
since, morality does not seem to have
suffered.

Japanese Women Travelling.

From Japan Letter.
There was Japanese family on
board, swells of the most improved pat
tern, who wore European dress with
ease, and were devoted to cheese, bitter
beer and other foreign things that the
japanese are slow to adopt. The Jap
anese always were their best clothes
when travelling, so as to declare their
rank and means, and the little women
rang the changes in her wardrobe three
time day, and her husband kept up
with her. She had many astounding
hats, huge-brimmed and high crowned
things, bristling with wings, loops, birds
and daggers, and when it came to leav-
ing the ship each hat was brought up ON
deck tied in large cotton handkerchief,
and every article they possessed travel
ed separately. Their baggage made a
heap that measured six feet every way,
and the largest piece. was a japanese
basket no larger than good valise.
There we're thirty-five small pieces
to be brought up and counted,
and passed over the side of the ship and
counted again, and the little boxes and
bottles and jars and handkerchief bun
dies and loose pieces of clothing would
have sent an average man mad. The
little japanese danced around in pearl
cOlOred trousers and black cutaWay, and
seemed to enjoy fourishing the paper
on which the list was written, and
counting his wife's hats, and he pro-
longed and repeated the ceremony until
Quiet lOOkerS-On were ready to believe

The Ninth ward aldermen are talking
seriously of having boats built so that
they can get in to the council meeting.
An editorial writer in Minneapolis
morning paper protests against kissing
in public. As nobody bankers to kiss
him in public, OF private either for that
matter, his column article would seem
to be a foolish and reckless waste Of
space, especially when such vital sub
jects as tariff reform are before the
people.
The condition of the streets of Min
neapolis is simply shameful. Great
ridges OF snow and ice line either side
of the street car tracks, while the cross
ings are covered with slush. A
local theater has gained no lit
tie popularity by hiring a
number Of street sweepers to keep the
crossings clear in the vicinity of the
theater. Perhaps some of the alder
men might gain a little popularity by
paying some attention to q crying public
need.
