RUMoks OF A DEAL.
1t involves the Franchise Of Two
Minneapolis Railroads.


A rumor was circulated yesterday to
the effect that President Hill, of the
Manitoba railroad, has secured, or as
good as secured. the Minneapolis West
ern railroad, known as the Minneapolis
Transfer. The report has not been
verified as yet. Part of the scheme
which hinges upon the purchase of the
Minneapolis transfer is said to be the
securing of the Eastern Illinois rairo al
and the construction of belt line
around the mills. The stockholders in
the transfer are c. a. Pillsbury IL Co.,
c. II. Petit, William Petit, Sidle,
Fletcher & Holmes, J. NJ. Robinson. d.
Morrison, Croker, Fish 81 Co., the Gal
aXy Mill company and the Washburn
estate, all millers. The object of the
sale, if the Minneapolis Eastern
can be secured by the Mani
toba, is the greater facilities af-
orded for the handling of wheat and
flour and the getting rid of excessive
switching charges. The Minnesota
Eastern runs along back of the mills to
the Palisade mill, and the transfer to
the same point on the front. The con-
nectlon OF the ends near the PaliSade
would complete the belt line, which
would then encircle all of the mills on
~" "ooG oIic eAcGpt tie OldHudru, Dd-
kota and Crown Roller. The lines on
both sides of the mills then being under
the management of one road, and
the road the one which brings
a good deal of the wheat into
Minneapolis, business would be ex-
pedited and probably cheapened. It is
no doubt a good scheme for the mills if
it works. The Minneapolis Eastern
line is controlled by the Minneapolis d
st. Louis road, and has been generally
considered the most profitable part of
that system. Why the st. Louis should
sell paying piece of property, and to
its Old enemy. the Manitoba, is not
readily understood. and it is this fact
that causes many to disbelieve the re-
port of the deal. However, the Mani
toba claims to have an option OH the
Minneapolis Eastern.

DIR. HOYTs INTRODUCTION.
He Makes His Bow to the Mem
bers of the First Baptist Church.

The First Baptist church was well
filled yesterday morning by congrega-
ton anxious to hear the first sermon of
the new pastor, Rev. DR.. Wayland
Hoyt, late of Philadelphia. Whether
the members of the church were disap-
pointed or gratified is hard to state.
Certainly DR.. Hoyt does not cut brill
liant figure as pulpit orator. Nor was
the substance of his first effort in Min
neapolis remarkable for its great
breadth and depth. He may make up
in working qualities what he lacks in
other respects.
DR.. Hoyt is below medium height,
slender, squares-houldered and weighs
about $50 pounds. His is not striking
personality. His gray hair is closely
clipped and he wears short gray mus
tache, chin beard and eyeglasses. If he
weighed about eighty pounds more he
would somewhat resemble Mayor Bdbb.
He speaks in high key, strives after
dramatic effect without attaining it,
rambles in his discourse and tells a
good many stories by way of illustra-
ton, often without bringing out the
point very clearly. Yesterday morning
he took his text from the Epistle TO the
Romans, xvi. 9: Salute Herbanus, our
helper in Christ. and said:
"Mastor, slave of Hadrian. the
Roman emperor. was travelling with his
master. While far from home he heard
of the destruction Of his house and the
death of his family. He wanted to die.
Going out into the court yard, he heard
an old man preaching to his fellow
slaves. The venerable preacher told
his fellows to lay their burdens on
Christ. They hAilf.E,.,l lila anu went
back to their Iabors with lightened

NEWSPAPER ROW.

The St. Paul sassiety Eye is paying a
good deal of attention to Minneapolis
people and events.
Mai. William Buckley is said to be
meeting with good success with his
building and loan paper.
The Evening journal expects to put
in three fast presses when it gets into
its new building, and some startling cir
culation statistics are to bc expected.
1t is rumored that Joe Mannix, the
child of nature and PRO Bono Publ CO"
letter writer of the p. p, is soon to leave
that paper and go on the Tribune.
The statuesque w. l.. O'Brien Jr. is

made vacant by the departure of "Old
HosS" Van Antwerp for Washington.

rife roast that Editor MaDen received

hearts. They saw the truth. Light
came to those slaves from God. We do
not think Of it, but it comes to us from
the same source. Why are we not the
subjects of despotiSm which once held
the world. when slavery was the
cornerstone of government, and
when people were killed for the
most trivial offenses? Because the
Son of God gave His life for the service
Of men. Could our republic have been
had Christ not come? Give thanks that
you are what you are. Some people
long for the good old times. Emigrate
to China if you want the good old times.
We live in the good new times. The
world has advanced because Christ
came into it. All progress is because of
Christ. Who can help individual man
in his struggles but Christ?
ION this first Sunday of the new year
it is well to wait for reflection. Why is
labor held in honor? What has changed
the worlds thought? The vision of
divine man who was carpenter. 1t
was Christ who put crown Oh labor.
Why does woman now stand on an
equal plane with man? Who made
hGme possible? He who was good hum
blcd himself to be born of woman. We
owe our homes to Christ. We know of
future life because of Christ, and
every precious thing comes primarily
from Him.
"Who was HerbanuS? By reputation
he was a helper. Can it be said of you
that you are a helper? If you recognize
gifts in Christ, become helper. This
is the lesson to be learned the first of
this year. Become helper. The way
to do it is TO notice the small things.
Don't be afraid to tell the pastor your
troubles. Look on the bright side.
Think of what you can understand in
religion. Let the rest go. invite peO-
pie up. Do you look upon your en-
ployes as you do upon the wheels of
your mills? You call that political econ
omy. God will not recognize political
economy. Help others. Cheer those
who are helpers. That is the third lesson
to be learned from Paul's epistle. Praise
those who do good work"

100 miles to lake port. They slept on
the docks for two nights and lived on %
cents. Then they caught a freight
train on the return trim, were
discovered and compelled to shovel
coal for the fireman throughout
the whole journey. They are exam
pies of runaways who got a long ways
from home. There are countless others
who never went FIVE miles, but whose
intentions were good, nevertheless. The
writer once tried the same thing. He
camped one night, all alone, in clump
OF woods within sight of his own led
room window, but slept not wink. He
was back home the next day. Any of
the, prominent business men of Mime
apolis could doubtless tell stories of the
same sort. If you want entertainment

CAPT. wHEELAN's LECTURE.
The Antt-Treat Champion Opens
Temperance Headquarters.

Never in the city of Minneapolis has
a temperance lecture been given which
was as interesting and accomplished its
object SO we'll as that delivered by Mr..
Whalen at II Washington avenue north.
This was the first lecture of the series
to be given this week, and over 300
people attended. He spoke of his past
lite and of the ways that led him astray:
picturing wildly the shame. anguish
and remOrse which he suffered during
the period OF twenty years in which
he wandered astray and drawing tears
to the eyes of the hearers by his descrip-
ton of pathetic scenes caused by rum.
His language is forcible, clear and to
the point, and the work he is doing is to
be commended. Capt. Whelan is doing
this work upon his own responsibility,
and he himself pays all the expenses.
An unusually large audience is ex-
pected this evening when he will speak
upon the declaration of men that they
can drink and let it alone.

YOUTHFUL HUSBAND.
He Wants a Separation Because He is
Rich and Els Wife Is Poor

MILWAUKEE Owls }, March l7th.-Robert Eliot,
the millionaire commission merchant, who has
been absent several days, is believed t. have
gone to Canada, to place his son. the youngest
hu:band known to the Wisconsin records, in
Jesuit college. with The hope that he will there
get some solid sense before resuming the role OF
head of family. The son is the tifteen-year-
old youth who created a sensation a short time
ago by clipping with the sixteen-year cd daugh-
ter of James Nugent, a bookkeeper for large
house here.
Robert Eliot is reported to be at least twice
millionaire. Moreover he is descendant i'll
direct line of the Eliot of Rhode Island and
Bible translation fame, while his wife was the
daugh er of nephew of no less a person than
John Jacob Aston. The child wife is now at
home with her parents, and refuses to talk
about the matter.
Mr.. Eliot has applied for an annulment of the
marriage. Mr. Nugent will not consider any
compromise f:or think OF n money settlement,
but Will fght to maintain the marriage and pro
tect the reputation of his child. The complaint
asks that the marriage be annulled, on the
ground that the groom was under the age of
consent. The defense demUrs that there was no
allegation in the complaint of lack of evidence
OF an sctuGl marriage, and the Court has no
jurisdiction, in that The plaintiff is outside of
the State and the jurisdiction of the Court.
Young Eliot is large of stature for his age and
it is said represented himself 10 the bride as 10
and to the priest as 81
