would not be cOmfOrted. They very
| cuDningly caused to be circulated and
signed a paper which was nothing more
or less than certificate Of character
| for DR.. McKaig, or what might
be called parting expression
| of good will from his people.
| Hardly any one cared to withhold such
an expression from the doctor, and the
| paper was. therefore, very generally
signed. The persons in charge OF the
paper, however, seemed bent on mis-
chief, and accordingly diverted its oSten-
Sible object by forwarding the document
to Bishop Mallalieu, then holding con-
| ference in st. Paul, thereby hoping to
embarraSs the action of the bishop III
appointing DIR. Tiffany. The reporters
got wind of the matter, and, not being
| able to inspect the paper, began guess
ing at its contents, ana the journal and
! the Star reported it as a protest against
! the appointment of DIR. Tiffany to the
| Hennepin Avenue church,; and the
GLOBE. not beng more gifted at guess
| ing. reported it as protest against the
| reappointment of DR.. McKaig to that
church. The paper was. of course.
harmless in itself, but it was inspired by
fOolishness, conceived and brought
forth in sin, and used for sinful pur-
| pose. The persons who circulated the
paper evidently had more OF the orig
! inal sin in their hearts than good sense
in their heads. Such seem to have
| been the plain facts. out of which have
| grown so much idle gossip and misrep-
| reSentatiOn.

The new school is largely project Of
| Waiter VrOOman, who explains that It
is expected TO reach class of people
who do not care to attend schools now

rather than the SuperStitiOnS now
