DIDN'T PAN OUT.
An Old Time Methodist Meet
ing

A meeting was called at the Central
Park Methodist church last evening,
but it did not take place for various
reasons. Some said tt e failure was be-
cause of the extreme closeness of the
weather. Others said the young ladies'
Sociable in the lecture room (Which was
a success) was the trouble; while still
others said it was on account Of the alb
Sence of the pastor, Mr.. Smith. The
meeting was to have been addressed by
the Rev. ID. Morgan, of the West side.
No one present seemed to know what
the meeting had been called for. but it
was assumed by several old gentlemen
that the meeting was intended as the
initial step OF movement looking to
the establishment of a central mission,
to be sustained by the Metho--
dist churches in all parts of
the city. John Wesley prayed
that the Methodist church might re-,
main poor, but it has not done SO.
churches of that denomination in st.
Paul. But in every church organiza-
ton, however wealthy its members,
there is a goodly percentage bona fide
MethOdistS. who believe with Wesley,
that humility is very necessary aid to
religion. These good people have OBJ
served that many of the laboring people
remain away from church. and keep
their children from attending Sunday
school, simply and solely Influenced by
poor mans touchy pride. It is pro.
posed to meet the people half
way. by establishing central
place of worship, whereat they
may gather together and worship I'M
disturbed by the sway OF Mammon.
Presiding Elder Forbes began the work
four years ago, and founded five mis-
sions that afterwards prospered until
they became self-sustaining. and at
length developed into regularly organ
lied churches. In approaching the Ia
boring people with this religious enter
prise, it is the intention to escheW the
use of sounding brass and tinkling
cymbal Oh the streets. Music. however,
will hold high place in the exercises
of the Central misSion-not music Of the
Olympic and Bodega falsetto type-but
sacred music, and plenty of it.

SEVERAL SERIOUS CASES
Which Changed the Ordinary Run

Which Changed the Ordinary Run
of the Police Court.
E. j. Typner, the man arrested Thurs
day night for having taken indecent
liberties with Lena Schafer, servant
girl in the block at II East Seventh
street, was arraigned in the police court
yesterday morning on charge of dis
orderly conduct. After hearing the
evidence Judge Burr imposed fine of
$50. but granted a five days stay of pro-
ceedings on notice of an appeal from
his decision. W. M. Smith, the man
who stole horse at Fort Smelling be-
longing to Thomas J. Little. and who
stole load of furniture belonging to a
West Seventh street widow, was held
to the grand jury. Swan Evjen, of 1874
Gaultier street, was held to the grand
jury without bail under charge of in
ceSt preferred by the county attorney
several weeks ago. c. P. Webb. sa-
lo0nkeeper at 321 jackson street,
charged on two counts with selling
liquor without license, had his case
continued until next Wednesday. Will
lam Kreny called Carl Glitz bad names,
for which he was compelled to give

A SINGULAR MIDDLE,
In Which an Editor Was Attorney
as Well.

as Well.
The West Publishing company is
having no end of trouble with M. L.
Countryman. formerly the legal editor
of their publications. 1t seems that
Mr.. Countryman entered into contract
to act as legal editor for the company
for salary of $3.50 a week. In con-
Sideration Of this weekly stipend he
agreed to work eight hours
daily. except Sundays, in the
capacity of legal editor. But
whenever the company had use for an
attorney in court Mr.. Countryman gen
erously rendered his professional serv-
ices without extra compensation. 1t
was this generosity that brought the
legal editor to grief. Several months
ago Carl f. j. Goebel began an action
against the West concern for $1,000
damages, aud the case was placed in
Countryman's hands for attention. He
went to work and filed an answer
to Goebels complaint and then put
in a claim against the publishing
company for $50 for professional sery-
ices. But the company thought Mr.
Countryman's salary paid for his entire
time and they refused to allow him $3.50
for extra services. Then the legal
editor climbed up on high horse and
sued for the $3.50. Of course, after this
occurrence, the West company sought
another attorney to look after their in
terestS in the Goebel case. But Coun-
tryman held the papers in the case and
refused to surrender them or consent to
substitution of counsel. Yesterday the
West company secured an order from
Judge Kelly directing Countryman to
appear next Saturday and show cause
why he should not deliver up the
papers and consent to change of
counsel in the Goebel case.

Residents on Portland avenue have
been in perpetual state of terror for
the past week as a result of the preda-
tory operations of certain burglariOus
gentry, whose lack of success in OBJ
tanning the coveted watches and Shekels
of the residents on the avenue has GER
tainly not been caused by lack of dill
genee on their part. The latest of the
Vagaries of the daring burglar occurred
Thursday evening, when the residence
of Charles j. Berryhill, at 541 Portland
avenue, was subjected to rigid eXami-
nation from one end to the 9TH
er by the man in the mask.
The family had retired, and
the first intimatIon received by them
that something was wrong was when
the hall lamp, which is always left
burning, suddenly went out. The light
is visible from Mrs. Berryllill's room,
and Berryhill pere was at once routed
from the DliSsful slumber into which he
had fallen, and started out to look for
the interloper. The burglar. took alarm
at the first indication of a move by the
occupants of the house, and succeeded
in making his escape, though holly
pursued for some distance by Mr..
DUH Hill dllUcu Will Uuli . CyO
lantern and a horsepi stol. The burglar
has also operated during the week
at the residences of Oscar L. Taylor,
529 Portland avenue; James Il. Skin
ner, 533 on the same street, and also at
the Matheson residence, corner of
Holly avenue and Mackubin street. In
the latter case the wire window screens
were cut in order that ingress might be
gained, though i'll each case the burg
lars have been frightened away be-
fore gaining their object. At the resi-
dence of Mr.. Skinner Waterman was
employed to ward off danger from the
same source, in spite of which precau-
ton the house was entered and the Oc
cupaptS given bad scare. No clue to
the perpetrator of the outrages has been
discovered

THE GAS COMPANY WINS,
And Will Light the Court House
Work of the Commission.

And Will Light the Court House
Work Of the Commission.
The st. Paul Gas Light company cap-
tured the contract for lighting the new
court house at the meeting of the joint
committee yesterday. The special COM
mittee appointed to investigate into the
respective merits of gas and electricity
reported in favor of gas. They
stated that their investigation DEM
onstrated the fact that gas
was 20 per cent cheaper and
gave from Is to 25 per cent more light
than electricity. The committee also
thought that gas would give more re-
liable light. The contract awarded to
the gas company is for lighting the en-
tire building with the exception of the
vaults. Aid. Cullen moved to let the
contract for lighting the vaults to the
Edison Electric Light company, but the
matter was laid over until the
next meeting. Four McGinnis smoke
consumers were purchased. These
consumers have been in use at the court
house for several weeks, and give thor
ough satisfaction. The numerous bids
jected. 1t was found that nothing could
be saved by letting the work out by
contract.
The custodian was Instructed to keep
the court house illuminated until
midnight during Fair week. The
merchants on Wabasha street propose
to hight that thoroughfare with arc cleo
trio lights, from Third to Ninth. for
several months. The placing of four
arc lights along the Wabasha street
frontage of the court house square was
authorized.

CLAMoRING FOR BONDS.
Park Commissioners and the
Identification of the City.

Park commissioners anu the
Identification of the City.
The board of park commissioners held
their regular monthly meeting yeSter-
day, with A. e. Wedge in the chair.
J. j. Watson, representing the owners
OF West CrOcuS Hill, notified the board
that the blind lane had been extended
and an open roadway extended through
the little park on the side of steep
hill on North Pleasant avenue, which
his syndicate had donated to the. city.
Supt. Estabrook reported that two drive
wells had been sunk Ill Como park and
good drinking water found by sinking
thirty feet below the lake level.
The superintendent was instruct
ed to prepare an estimate of
the cost Of grading the unim-
proved portion of the Summit ave-
nue. boulevard and preparing it for tree
planting next spring. The legislature
authorized the issue by the city council
of s. 5 900 worth of bonds for improving
the boulevard. The property owners are
clamoring for tina bonds, but the city
council is reticent. The park commits
sioners desire the issue of the bonds be-
cause they wish to make no eXpendi-
lures out of the park fund for improve
ments provided for. Commissioner
Hendrckson reported that he had sue
ceeded in securing a release in the mat
ter of the contract between the park
commissioners and the owners of the
property which it is proposed to use for
Mohawk park. The board of public works
will now have charge of the matter.
A committee, consisting of Commission
sioners Stevens, Hendrickson and the
superintendent, was appointed to pre-
pare estimates and to form plan to
Submit to the Northern Pacific railroad
for the opening of road sixty feet wide
along the south end of Como park, it being
desired that the Northern Pacific donate
a strip of ground thirty feet wide, or
one-half of the road. A resolution was
passed, requesting the managers of the
city workhouse to prepare the ground
along Lexington avenue fronting Como
rark for the planting of shade trees.
A. s. Tallmadge, representing the st.
Paul Real Estate and Improvement COM
pany, offered to sell to the commission
certain land on the west end of Lake
Como, so as to make the boulevard con-
tinuous around the lake. Mr.. Tall
madge said he would like to keep the
land, if the board didn't want 1t, though
if the board could use it he would sell
it to them at lower rate than he had
received for some pieces in that neigh
borhood. he has bought back few
pieces that had been sold. The matter
was referred to committee.
