THEY WEREN'T SORRY.
Militia Men Not Anxious to Be
Sacrificed.

When the news came from the cOun-
try few days ago that the Chippewas
were OH the war-path, Gov. Merriam
ordered the Minneapolis militia. coz
sisting of companies A, and B, under
arms. preparatory to going to the scene
of action Immediately. The boys staid
all night at the armOry, prepared
to march to the depot to take the
special train which they expected
would take them among the blood
thirsty savages of Mile Lacs county. 1t
is needless to say that there was feel
ing of relief when the regulars from
Fort Smelling were ordered out. instead
of the First regiment. There were a
number of pictures of the boys best
girls hastily sewed on the inside
of soldierly blouse, to make
death in the service of their country
in the pineries, romantic as we'll as
heroic. In their excitement, it is said
that a number of them pricked their
fingers seriously, some even losing
darning needles under their thumb
nails in their ardor to pass down into
the history of the state as having been
scalped like knight-errant in the
wet, dark weeds of the wilds.
At this point in their preparation
word came that the militia would not be
sacrificed at present. The governor prob
ably took this action in view of the fact
that the boys will be needed for the pur-
pose of dress parade at the coming state

A BUDDHIST CEREMONY
For the Repose of Those Who Per
ished on the Oneida.

For the Repose of Those Who Per-
ished on the Oneida.
Japan Gazette.
A peculiar ceremony was performed
on May at the Ikegami temple. Omori,
in connection with the bones recovered
from the sunken man-0f- war Oneida,
wrecked nineteen years ago in the col
lision with the Pacific and Oriental
steamer Bombay. The idea originated
with a Japanese firm of wreckers, who
purchased the wreck of the Oneida.
They recently concluded operations for
the recovery of salvage. During this
work they found number of bones.
These remnants OF what had once been
human life were first taken to the
American consu late and then removed
to the hosp ital, where they at present
remain. They will probably be inferred
in the plot in the Yokohama cemetery
where memorial stands over the re-
mains taken from the Oneida soon after
the collision.
1t was to these bones that the service
bore relation. The ceremony may not
accord with American OF European
ideas, but the source from which it em-
anated and the sympathetic spirit which
conceived it must command the pureSt
admiration. 1t was the recognition of
estimable sentiment manifested which
prompted large number of foreigners
to attend at the performance of the rites
at the ancient temple of Daishi-in. The
promotion of the ceremony by the Japa-
nese and the foreign presence accorded
was warm evidence of the absence of
national distinctions, and of the posses
tolerance. The sympathy was mani
tested by modes curious to Western
canons of religious observance. but the
spirit which inspired it is one of the
finer feelings none too common in the
world to-day.
Included in the party of 13O or 14O who
left Yokohama by train to attend the
ceremony were CIR. GreathOuSe, United
States consul general; Admiral Bel
knap, twenty American naval officers
(amOng whom were Capt. F. V.McNair,
United States ship Omaha; Lieutenant
Commander William w. Reisinger, COM
mander United States ship MOnOcacy;
Lieutenant Commander Clifford H.
West, flag secretary; Paymaster M. G.
Mcdonald and Paymaster c. A. Nc
DanleD, sixty American men-Of-war's
men and the French and Russian con-
suls general.
When the guests had seated them
selves in the beautiful temple, seventy
six priests entered, intoning weird
chant to the accompaniment of native
instruments, and afterward formed
round the altar, where incense was
burned and on which offerings of bread
were placed. At intervals flowers were
also cast on the altar by the chief priest.
This portion of the service. occupied
about fifty minutes. At its conclusion

The Rational Reception of Jesus

The Rational Reception of Jesus
..-Nothing Arbitrary in Chris
tianity.
At the Church of Christ Rev. W. ].
Lhamon yesterday morning preached
upon ''The Rational Reception Of Jesus"
taking for his text: HE that believeth
and is baptized shall be saved" MARK,
xvi, 16.
Standing alone this text has the face
of dogma IT Jesus had have said no
more His tone would have seemed ar
bitrary. But for this saying, as for all
of Christ's requirements, there is great
preparation. The way that leads up to
it is paved with the best of reasons. In
a school room recently heard the pro-
fessor say to a young person at the
board, "Why, why do you do it that
way? Give the reason for the rule. Is
there anything arbitrary in mathemat-
ics?" So we ask, Is there anything ar
bitrary in Christianity? Does not Jesus
appeal to reason? Does He not give the
evidence before He asks for faith? This
text in its historic setting is but the key
stone to an arch, the necessary conclu
sion of great work. Christ's more
than manlike biography, written in
WOrUS Ol UIulll duu uccStS vi lOVc, LII tIlC
heroism of self-sacrifce, in the martyr
dom of crucifXiOn, and in victorious
resurrection; in His fulfllment of
prophesy, of humanity's ideal, and of
the divine requirementS-HiS biography
written thus is the evidence on which
He bases His claim to rightful lordship,
and on which He asks for faith. Rea-
son leads us to the conclusion of a
syllogism; faith accepts it. So reason
builds on infallibIe evidence the
conclusion that Christ is Lord;
faith accepts the conclusion. The
lordship once accepted, the obedi-
ence becomes rational; disobedi-
ence, inconsistent and rebelliOus.
baptism, following faith, as in our text,
becomes thus an act of obedience.
Touched with loyalty, this ordinance
has significance; otherwise it is moth
ing. Babes cannot believe; they eau
not obey; they cannot really be bap-
tized. Baptism is the symbol of great
change. It is among the first acts in
life of loyalty. Since Christ required it
it takes its place among the virtues,
side by side with prayer, truth-telling
and honest dealing. Under the Lord
ship of Christ ordinances are exalted to
the rank of virtues, and virtues have all
the significance of ordinances. Loyalty
to Christ is the only orthodoxy, and it
knows NO little, no big ones among its

significance of the ceremony and the be-

After the address the priests filed out
from the temple and conducted the
foreigners to point in the grounds
where there had been erected tablet
standing thirty feet high. on which
were inscribed several Buddhist texts,
the date when the Oneida was lost, and
the names of those who went down
with her. This tablet was dressed in a
beautiful floral framework. Here the
priests again formed around, burned
incense and offered up prayers for those
in whose memory the monument had
been erected. This ended the ceremony.
The foreigners were next escorted
through the gardens, taken through the
temple. shown it's rich and costly relics
of times and deeds which have passed
forever, each presented with bag of
sweetmeats, and then they departed.

Stability of the Library Build
ing. ',...
There has been some talk to the effect
that the public library building is show
ing signs of weakness, and there was a
report yesterday that the walls were
settling. The building seems to be,
as far as appearances go, at
least, the very personification of
strength. A GLOBE reporter made
an investigation of what has
probably caused these sensational
rumors last evening and found that the
right hand column of the inner arch of
the building, just at the head Of the
first flight of stairs, is cracked in four
places near the bottom and on all four
sides. The cracks have the appearance
of extending clear through the column.
They extend upward into the stone cap.
The cracks are all at one place, and the
largest one stands open about the, six
teenth of an inch. The column has the
appearance of being either too short or
being too light for the weight-it bears.
