SOME RADICAL CHANGES
Resolved Upon by the Ladies of
the w. G. It. u,


the w. Q. Il. u.
The Women's Christian Temperance
union concluded Its state convention
Yesterday morning. The part of the
programme most interesting to the dele
gates was the report of Mrs. McCurdy,
superintendent of the department of
prison work. The lady in her report
repeated much of the; abuse heaped
upon the prison authorities and the
buildings in which the prisoners are
kept. She had sympathetic audience.
and took the occasion to go into details
and recite instances to show the moral
deprayity Of that part of the human
race coming under her notice in the de-
partment assigned to her. She was
particularly severe in her description OF
the insane cell, and gave it as her opin-
ion that if the persons brought there
were not insane at the time, one
night spent in the dark and loath-
some place, with only a hole in
the wall to light it in the day
time, would make them so. The paper
was for the most part but arepetition of
sensational charges made earlier in the
year, with the addition of personal
"reminiscences.
A paper prepared by DIR. Genevieve
Tucker was read. the subject being
Hygiene and Heredity."
Mrs. Mary c. Engstrom, of Cannon
Falls. superintendent of Scandinavian
work, was detained at home by illness.
Her report was read. There were four
Scandinavian unions in the state. About
$4,000 pages of literature had been dis
tributed. The ~" at Minneapolis was
the oldest Scandinavian union and the
largest. The Herman union was strong.
The Crookston union was likely to be
disbanded, though that was not certain.
More Norwegian temperance literature
was needed. The Union Signal was
being mailed to twenty-five Scandina-
Wan editors in the state.
The committee on resolutions report
ed in lengthy paper. which, after many
preambIes and thanks for blessings gets
down to business and makes some plain
assertions. The ladies resolve that as
wives and mothers they kindly but firm

sarlly as many damaging points of his
tory from the rival debaters. The af-
fair had little significance from polit-
ical standpoint, while it furnished
vast amount of amusement for the par
tlclpants. The debate was not intended
to have any result as to the especial
proves of any one side, it being left
wholly to the audience as to who car
ried off the honors.

avoiding Imprisonment.

and the second blade was but little bet
ter. The bouts resulted as follows:
First, Mcclure 1, Englehart L; second,
two for each; third, Mcclure 5, Engle-
mart 4. After the match the clever Swiss
lady stepped to the front, and. with her
eyes swapping, challenged the major to
another contest, which was accepted,
and they will fence again tonight. He
is a powerful and scientific sWordsman,
and Englehart is quick as cat. 1t re-

An Allegheny Baptist Congregation Wor-
ships in Its New Home.
The Green Street Baptist Church, of Allie
gheny, was dedicated yesterday. Services
were held in the morning, afternoon and
evening. The little church had been decor
ated with vines and wreaths of green, and
about the pulpit and the choir seats otted
plants and palms were placed. The music
for the services was rendered bv the choir OF
the church, a chorus of double quartet.
The pastor of the church, Rev. DR.. Laws,
delivered the sermons, that OF the morning
being but the usual discourse The dedica-
tory oration was delivered in the after
noon. The cRrch was filled with mem-
bers OF the congregation and their
friends. A lesson ives read of the
building of the temple, from which
the pastor drew the conclusion that the work
OF erecting their present house of worship
was a repetition of history He charged his
hearers to guard their new edifce with
jealous care and to look to its interests as
they would any other OF their belongings
The congregation of the church numbers
about 90, who have been two years in erect
ing the present church. 1t stands on Scott
street, some distance back of Robinson, and
is an unpretentious little brick structure,
bur one story in height In time, it is
hoped, another story will be added to ii.
DR.. Laws also preached a sermon last night.

MORALITY AND RELIGION.
Sermon by Rev. DIR. Townsend, of the Uni
tartan Church, Yesterday Morning.

Sermon by Rev. DIR. Townsend, of the Uni
tartan Church, Yesterday Morning.
In the course of his sermon yesterday.
Rev. DR.. Townsend said: "We sometimes
hear the phrase, mere morality as if
morality were something poor and mean. L
have heard ministers denonnce morality as
ifit were immortality, and declare moral men
the most dangerous class in societyl Now
wish to show the identity of morality and
religion; show how large and inclusive
morality is. I think you will see that
morality includes religion as the root in
cludes branch and blossom. But what is
morality? Morality includes four things
industry, purity, kindness and honesty. He
that gives some useful service to the
world makes shoes, coats, iron, or
steel, shops or houses, thought
or beauty, and ispure, kind and honest in
his relations to his fellows, Is a moral man.
Morality cannot be less; 1 do not see how it
can be more. But see how much this means.
For example, in the smallest moral action
there is presence of the whole moral law, as
when an apple falls, there is presence OF
the great law of gravitation, as much as
when a sun is pulled round its awful orbit.
So that the smallest right action is right for
mt, auu ioI dll meu, III III placeS anu dt an
times-right in the iarthest star, or In
thousand thousand years hence. 1t is con-
nected with the eternal and universal. That
little moral action circles out until its waves
touch all shores Of the infinite sea. 1t has
the ideal element, it is religious.
Look at any action of common honesty,
unknown, unseen, perhaps. Yet that deed
is thread in the web OF mutual confidence
that holds society together Again, how the
word morality orbs out, glows and burns
like sun. Or, in that drama we call sin,
what is that which relentless memory
turns our eve upon? This, that we
have brought the tear to tine cheek
of an innocent child, or bruised
sacred friendship, or taught virtuous feet to
walk in unholy paths. Again, we see that
morality is the greatest word that ever
trembled on spiritual lips But is not belief
in God religion? But where is God most
urgent and near? Is he not within us. most
ofall in the commands OF the moral right?
Is not God revealed in the reverences of the
right. Again, the word morality shines and
glows. l would rather you would wear the
common cloth of morality than the fashion
able velvet of loud profession.

PURITY In PLEASURE.

That Are Free From Vice.
RANK TREASON OF PESSIMISTS.
Their Selfish Doctrines lmpeach the Gov
ernment of God.
VARIOUS SERMONS ON TIMELY TOPICS

Last evening Rev. George 7. Purves
Presbyterian Church. His sermon was on
the subject of religion and pleasure Text,
Timothy lis, 4.
Beginning, the pastor referred to the
practical side of the relation Of amusements
to a Christian life. He said when Paul re-
ferred to pleasures he looked at life as he
found it, and the joys of to-day are similar
ly related to religion.
Extreme views of what pleasure is or of
the true objects of religion" continued the
speaker, "are injurious to both sides. Vice
should have no place as proper pleasure
in human life, but recreation, sports and
those pastimes designed to improve the
mental and physical powers are highly com
mendable as form of relief to draw our at
tention from the somberness of life.
1.-The proper place for pleasure in life has
limits. Ii the pleasure is calculated to have
an evil effect it should not be countensnced.
Pleasure should not be INDUCED in wnen
work, which is of supreme Importance, re-
mains to be DONE Amusements tending to
be hurttul to society are improper. Only
those that will elevate the world are mt to
meet the approval of all.
There are recreations that may be harm
less to oneself, but duty to others requires
such pleasures should be stopped. Ore
positive guide TO true happiness is the love
OF God. Following in the light of His holy
precepts and wishes, pure pleasures Will
attend US through our lives. Let all pause
on the threshold of contemplated joys and
reflect whether they are walking in right
eous paths. When we know that our acts
are guided by the principle of love for good
and ali that is free from contamination, then
we are pleasing our Father.
lit should be the object of our life to keep
before US, dav and night. the great princi-
pie which the Savior sought to instill in
the bosom of humanity-iove all that is
good in the sight of God! With this thought
in mind we will know how to distinguish
evil from pure in pleasure, and adhere to
the teachings of religion"

TRUTHS FOR YOUNG MEN.
DIR. David Kennedy Outlines the Elements
of Business Success.

DR.. David Kennedy Outlines the Elements
of Business Success.
The Rev. DR.. David Kennedy, of the
First Presbyterian Church, Allegheny, last
night closed his series of sermons to oung
men. The subject of his last sermon was
"The Young Man and Business" He said
business success was due first to
brains. He argued that each man
is blest with certain amount of
brains which are given out as capital stock
for him to improve. He cited society as
one of the enemies of brains, and described
a man who gives himself up to society as
"a babbling of small talk; a butterfly, all
show and no substance; peacock with
biz tail and weak legs. Were l young
again would shun the so-called society as
l would Asiatic cholera"
In speaking of industry as another feature
Of success he said, "There is no such thing
as luck; there is only divine sovereignty
and mans agency. What is termed luck in
business men is only the natural result of
labors done maybe years before" Over
meddle, obstinacy and laziness he pictured
as the enemies of industry, and pointed out
the way to avoid them. The doctor referred
TO genius as an another enemy to in
dustry. because TOO many men with
genius are content to rest on the
honors of their unusual powers. Genius to
be of any use must be accompanied by in
dustry. He believed in caution, but said
there must also be adventure-that adven-
ture which calculates results. He argued
strongly against speculation and compared
success in that with business growth as
balloon and a house. The house would
stand, but a passing bird might destroy the
balloon.

WHY SINNERS ARE NOT CHECKED.
Reasons for the Postponement of Punish
ment for Evil Doings,

Reasons for the Postponement of Punish
ment for Evil Doings.
why the Sinner Persists in Shining"
was the theme of Rev. DR.. Sutherland's
sermon last evening in the Second Presby-
terian Church. He said: "God is the onlv
being that can afford to take time for the ac-
complishments of His purposes, and for the
execution of HIS judgments against those
who persist in disobedience to His righteous
will and commands. His judgments NAV
be held back and long DELAYED in
mercy and iorbearance, but no evil
can escape divine penalty. In the
administration of the affairs of His moral
government, He pursues a course totally
different from that which is apparent in the
control OF the national world, where trans
gressIon is, as rule, followed Immediately
by penalty. His moral law is, has been and
will be violated in 10000 ways with seeming
impunity.
why is this? Evidently not because
God is Ignorant of the sins OF men. for He
fills immensity with His presence, There
is but one reason, viz: The loug-sufferinp
mercy and patience OF God. He willeth
not that any should perish, but thar all
should come 10 repentance and live"
