respectfully call attention to what might
be temptation uncOnSci0usly suggested
to the weak, in Secretary Halls report;
it is found in the last sentence OF the
report as given in the morning paper
alluded to, which says: "Seven hundred
and eleven Catholics have been aided"
This is a sentence on which one drops
very unprepared, as in the foregoing
statistics of the charity there is not
word about the religious denomination
OF the wards of the society. None but
belief or by the absence of
belief. Let me say that the num-
Der of the denomination named
by the secretary that has received re-
lief of the society shows that there was
no discrimination against Catholics as
such. This is we'll. Charity, in her
work of relieving distress, is blind, even
as Justice, to race, religion or color, cor
previous condition OF Servitude." Yet
it is regrettable, think, that in a report
to be published there should have been
distinction made even in favor of those
distinguished. Even an honest man, if
he is hungry, is always tempted to
strain his qualifications for relief, while
the dishonest applicant, if religious
test is required OF him, or if he knows
form of belief that would be a vote in
his favor, will with more sublety than
the secretary of the relief committee
(whO divides his wards simply enough,
into those who are Catholics and those
who are nOt) come prepared to. patron
iZe any creed that could be founded on
the Bible or the Koran. AS you like it,
Mr.. Secretary, he will worship at the
shrine of Peter or he will in advance
indorse the embryo constitution of Rev.
n
operation with such possible hypocrisy
and irreligiOn, and to guard the sup
plies of charity from any fraudulent
drainage, is my motive in asking the
Relief society not to let an unguarded
word again escape them that might pos
sibly change the common understand
ing of applicants, tO-wit: deserving
poverty, not religious creed, shall be
the measure of the aims to be doled to

other is that of poor colOred woman
living with her aged mother on Eagle
street. Her miserable husband, who
was compelled by the law
TO MARRY HER,
deserted her ana her young babe some
time ago. A visit to the house revealed
the fact that the little home was with

the poor old mother was out toiling for
her unfortunate daughter.
Here is what Il philanthropist said
yesterday: Yes, in these days there
is hunger and wan and distress all
around us. And while we are debating
in our mind whether a mink or otter
coat would be the proper thing for this

and happy to have even the thinneSt of
garments to cover their shiver-
ering bodies. While you la
dies are making a great ado
because your plush coats look horrid,
and would like to replace them with

there are others of your sex with hearts
as tender, with feelings as fine, that
wrap themselves in your cast-Otf ShawlS

your children are complaining about
their not having gum boots, or bicker-
ing about this style and that style of

doing Il noble act of charity if they sent

WHERE TRAMPS SLEEP.
A Swarm at the Central Police
Station Who Hanker for a Term
at the Work House.

A Swarm at the Central Police
Station Who Hanker for Term
at the Work House.
"If Ia knowed where 1 was well off
I'd stayed in CalifOrny this winter" re-
marked ClOthesline Pete, the profess
sional tramp. as he Rugged the fire in
the tramp's room at the central station
last night.
He had drifted in too late
to work warm supper, and
wasn't feeling in the best of
spirits. When the benumbed hands be-
came warm enough to be of service. the
venerable tramp pulled off a pair of
cowhide boots as stiff as boards and
threw himself full length on the hard
floor, close up to Omaha Bill and twenty
more of his fellows, who were stretched
out in rows, occupying every bit of
available space in the large hall devoted
to mendicant dodgers.
It's cold day when tramp gets left,
but swarms of them have been left at
the station house in the last few days.
A tramp'S constitution may be invul-
nerable, but rags and tatterS are not
proof against Minnesota blizzard.
The tramp is generally fond of outdoor
exercise, but when the thermometer
registers p deg. below zero, he likes
fire as well as anyone. The work house
is paradise to these fellows
at this time of the year. They beg to
be sent there, and would rather get
ninety days than thirty. Every day
the black maria is packed full of va
grants bound for the work house, and
every night again the tramp room at the
station is crowded to its utmost. When
they are all sleeping sOundly at FIVE
o'clock in the morning, Jailer O'Keefe
goes back and selects half-dOzen of
the more deserving ones, who are al
lowed to clear the station floor, and are
afterwards locked up and sent over to
the municipal court for sentence. The
rest are hustled out into the cold before
daylight. How they live nobody knows.
but the same crowd comes back again
at night, and the vacancies are more
than filled with new faces. The work
house is full to Overfowing, but it is too
cold for the tramp to travel, and he
must be taken care of.

CLOSING UPPER BERTHS.

A Suit Brought to Test the Valid
itY Of the Railway Commissions
Recent Order.
The railway commissioners have
another case on their hands, and this
time it is over their celebrated order re-
garding the closing of upper berths in
sleeping cars, which is to be tested in
the courts. The case is so brought that
the constitutionality of the law under
which they act will be passed upon.
The Manitoba brings this action in the
district court of Ramsey county, in the
shape of an appeal from the ORDER of
the railway commissioners. The allega-
tons they make are three in number
and as follows:
First-That the matter is not within
the jurisdiction of the board.
SecOnd-That it relates to interstate
commerce, and is within the jurisdic-
ton OF the interstate commissioners.
Third-That it is unjust and unrea-
sonable. and no grounds exist to Justify
the order; and to enforce it would de-
prlve the company OF just, reasonable
compensation for the use of sleeping
DertnS.

SUFFERING FROM COLD.
Applicants for Aid Are Numerous
at the Relief Rooms This
Weather


at the Relief Rooms This
Weather.
The cold weather at present is bear
ing quite heavily on the poor of our
city, and the Relief society, st. Vincent
de Paul society and board of control are
having their hands full attending to the
cases brought to their notice. A re-
porter called at the former place yester-
day to ascertain the condition of things.
The corridor leading to Supt. Halls
Office was crowded with men, women
and children, huddled together awaiting
their turn TO make known their wants
to the kindly old humanitarian. Mrs.
hoffman was the first to enter. She
was poorly dressed, and what little of
her face could be seen told of poverty
and its attendant hardships. She has a
three-monthS-old babe and not penny
to her name. Her rent, she said, was
due, and the landlady has given her no.
tice to quit the house. She would like
work of some kind to do, preferably at
home on account of her baby. Secre-
tary Hall told her he would look out for
something for her to do. and suggested
in the meantime that she place the child
at the Home for the FriendlesS.
There are many cases of this kind"
said Mr.. Hall after the woman had re-
tired, which goes to show the great
NECESSITY OF A NURSERY
for the care of children in connection
with our Relief society,""
Mrs. 0TOole, Of West st. Paul, with
pinched face and ill clad, next pre-
scented herself. She had seven chill
dren, she said, and wanted clothes and
shoes for her little ones. With her was
her little girl, eleven years old, bearing
every mark of privation, but one lost
sight of her poverty in her beauty. The
old gentleman supplied the woman's
wants as far as he was able, but was
obliged to deny her some articles of
wearing apparel because of not having
them.
Mr.. Hutchins spoke of particularly
distressing case that he had found
Thursday. 1t was that of a poor old
Swede living with his daughter out on
the Hudson road. The father was sick
and helpless and the daughter was car
ing for him. In the room, which both
occupied, there was but one bed, which
the daughter slept in at night, the
father being Obliged to sleep in chair.
The aims house and hospital board have

this time the old gentleman is probably

other very sad cases have recently come
under Mr.. Hutchlns' notice. One is

One of the most noteworthy society
events of the season was the reception
last evening at the elegant mansion of
ex-Gov. Alex Ramsey, on South EX-

ness was hostess. The solid old mansion
presented scene of brilliancy and
beauty from o'clock until midnight.
The house was made still more attractive
by exquisite floral decorations in baskets
and bouquets of rare eXotics whose
fragrance filled the air. Seven pieces

plants and SmilaX which formed per-
