given last Saturday evening at the opera
house by a number of our ladies and

in our city which we should be proud of,
and encourage. The plays were excel

parts were we'll acted, and all who at
tended lett we'll pleased. Tomorrow
evening they will repeat the performance,
and should haye full house, as they
have put the price within the reach OF

The Methodist conference, at it's an
nuai session in st. Paul, discussed the
question of dividing this conference.
Many St. Paul, Minneapolis and South
ern Minnesota members favored a d1vis-
ion, setting off northern Minnesota
into an independent jurisdiction. North
ern Minnesota didn't favor 1t, as the pr O.
posed plan seemed little selfish, in that
1t aggregated the strong churches into
one conference, and left the small churches
in northern Minnesota to shift for them
selves. Rev. S. G. Briggs was one of the
most effective workers against division.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RUTH Axn
EETElER

An appreciative writer in the Atlanta
Constitution illustrates his idea of mod
esty and sensitiveness in woman by re-
ferring to the story of that charming
biblical character, the gentle and faith
full and womanly Esther. There is
something about this character, says the
writer, that must commend it as genre
study to all that like to contemplate the
most lovable womanhood. The Old
Testament contains two love stories.
These are the stories of Ruth and of
Esther. There are other love incidents,
to be sure, but none that are so exclu-
sively devoted to woman's love as are
these twain. As between Ruth and
Esther there should be no hesitation.
There is about Ruth's affection for Boaz
too much generalization. She deliber-
ately schemes to catch the rich man,
and in many ways foists herself upon
his attention until he seems to marry
her to be rid of her opportunities. In
fine, all through the narrative she is
setting her cap" for him, and in this
advertisement she is ably seconded by
Naomi. There is no want of respect or
delicacy on the part of Ruth in her
courtship, but there is always present
this determination on her part to bring
Boaz to time. How differentis the story
of Esther! She was chosen by the King
Ahasuerus out of all the maidens of
Media and Persia for her beauty and re-
finement. She had neither father nor
mother, but as the Bible tells us "the
maid was fair and beautiful" This was
what the king wanted more than a
or mother-in-law. The
maiden pleased him and won his favor.
Esther was not only peculiarly sensi-
tive and refined women in all of her
relations with her kingly husband, but
was deeply grateful to her foster father,
Mordecai, the Jew who raised her. She
never forgot him amid the glories of her
position, but with infinite tact and
aelicacy preserved the love of Ahasuerus
and won the prefer:nent of Mordecai,
after the wicked Haman had been strung
up on the gallows. There are few
characters in sacred or secular litera-
lure which stand out with more beauty
and symmetry Iof outline than the simple
and lovely Queen Esther. In her is
The incarnation not alone of wifely SUBJ
mission but of filial gratitude.

WOMEN THE REST
DANCERS.

Our women are the best dancers in
the world. Ehe English woman moves
stitfiy, slowly, and so solemnly that if
the music could be hushed and her face
only were visible, it would seem as if
she We're arranging some new custom at
a funeral and had assumed her best
funeral manners. The American girl
keeps time with the music and seems
always rather to glide, while the En-
glish girl never gets beyond a trot.
Dancing is no longer the important fea-
tpre of an evenings entertainment, un-
less, of course, it is an evening es-
p4cially devoted to it. We used to
alhuse ourselves; now we have people
to amuss us. In time it is possible we
WILL grow like the Eastern magnates and
have people dance while we look on. In
days gone by hostess, after dinner,
would sit down to piano and sing a
bit for the amusement OF her guest, but
now she has some one from the opera or
from one of the many theaters-who
can, of course, appear when the play is
over, which exactly suits the hour of the
late dinner giver-to do this.-Deyoit
