GETTING DOWN TO WORK.
Yesterdays Session of the United
Lutheran Church Representa-

Yesterdays Session of the United
Lutheran Church Representa-
tives.
The United Norwegian Lutheran
Church of America is now an &C
complished fact. Yesterday began the
first real work, aside from the election
of officers, Of the perfected organiza-
ton. AS soon as the opening exercises
were concluded the appointment of
committees was taken up and as it
would require an uncOnSclonabIe
length of time to elect those commit
tees, it was decided to select nominal
ing committee, which should retire and
make up the list of committees. The
nominations for this committee, which
was to be composed of six members,
closed at 1920, when over fifty promi-
nent Norwegians had been placed In
nomination. At o'clock the follow
ing had been chosen to serve upon
the committee of six, Reys. o. T. Mel
Sverdrup and T. Larand. Adjourn
ment was then taken until 2 o'clock.
When business was resumed Hon. Lars
Swenson, of Minneapolis, was elected
treasurer by vote of STA, out of total
of S04. The fixing of the salary of the
president was referred to a committee
of three. The permanent organization
was then declared complete, and Prof.
Sven Oftedal, as chairman, arose and
welcomed President Hayme to his new
dignity.
During the afternoon the convention
was busy acting upon the various COM
mittees reported by the nominating
committee, and in discussing conStitu-
tional questions. A committee was APP
pointed to draft resolutions protesting
which the so-called reformed churches
are pushing among the Lutherans,
both in Europe and In America.
Rev. M. Falk Gjertsen was made
chairman of this committee. and he, in
speech on the subject, roundly scored
Rev. M. w. Montgomery, of the Amer
lean Home Missionary society, of this
city. for his part in the matter, and es-
pecially for recent article on the ques-
ton in the Independent. Mr.. Gjertsen
said "He has been illuminating our
Lutheran church, its Christian life and
its doctrine, and it is time that the
church should give him an answer"
A resolution expressing joy at the
final contamination of the union and
inviting the Hauge synod to Join. the
ferred. 1t was decided to hold grand
love feast at the Coliseum next Wednes-
day evening. Rev. M. Falk Gjertsen
has charge of the proceedings The
programme is not yet prepared, but
there will be six or eight
short speeches by prominent
clergymen. A mixed choir of
200 trained voices will furnish the
music under the direction of Prof. John
Dahle, of Minneapolis, and 81. Askel-
son, organist in Trinity church. To-day
services will be held in the Lutheran
churches, many OF I'm the visiting +S clergy
organization on committee reports will
begin tomorrow.

STRUCK BY LIGHTNING.
Three Laborers Narrowly Escape
Death From Bolt.

Death From a Bolt.
Minneapolis experienced another
soaking rain yesterday, accompanied
by some startling electrical disturb
ances. Telephone and telegraph wires
carried many discharges of the danger
GUS fluid safely to the earth, but a tree
out near Lake of the Isles acted
as a conductor for one discharge
of electricity which proved we'll
nigh fatal to three men who were in the
vicinity. John Johnson, August Dor
vinen and Gust Peterson were the three
injured. They were all in the employ
of the park department, engaged in
dredging the northeast arm of Lake of
the Isles. When the storm began the
three first mentioned, with Charley Hill,
took refuge under an umbrella. and
leaned against wire fence In
the vicinity of big tree.
thunderbolt splintered the tree into
fragments, and, probably by portion
of the same discharge, the four men were
hurled to the ground. Hill escaped un-
hurt, with the exception of slight jar
and tingling sensation. The three in
iured men were carried to the dredge
boat, and a doctor summoned. He
found johnson in state of unconscious
ness and the other two nearly so. The
limbs and hands of the men were vigor-
ously chafed, water in quantities used
and the three soon began to show signs
of life. When Johnson had recovered
sufficiently to be able to talk, he said
that he felt all broken up-as if he had
been injured internally. His right arm
and hip were burned as with hot iron,
and on the hips was spot about the
size of silver dollar, which had been
severely cauterJZed. He was the most
severely injured of the three, and
he did not recover himself SO
as to be able to sit up
alone for several hours. Dorvinen also
was knocked insensible, so much so
that his strength did not return for
about three hours He was not burned.
Peterson did not lose his senses, but he
received a severe burn on the right
forearm. Peterson and Johnson were
carried to their boarding house, 552
Western avenue, in the patrol wagon,
and will, it is thought, recover in a few
days, although both are still very weak.
The storm began at about $3.50 yes
terday morning and the rain poured
down In torrents until about s %. m.
So much rain fell that the sewers were
filled and backed water in several
places. In some of the hotels rats were
driven by the food from the sewers and
Easements into the buildings. No dam
age was done, however. and the flush
ing of the sewers by the rain will prove
a benefit.

Will See the Drop.

The sheriff of Redwood county has
sent Sheriff Eye an invitation to be
present at the hanging of Clifton
Holden, which will take place June 81,
provided the courts do not hold the John
Day Smith law unconstitutional. Since
the banging of the Barrett boys here,
Sheriff Eyes presence has become
quite desirable at executions, his fame
in this particular branch of official
business, being we'll known throughout
the state. By way of postscript, he is
requested to assist The up country
sheriff in the affair, but he says he is
not in that business, though he may be
present as spectator.

Small Wins.

The S. S. Small Injunction suit has
attracted considerable attention and
consumed q good deal of time in the
Hennepin county courts the last few
months. In New York the appellate
court has affirmed the decision of the
lower court, and though the decision is
against them, Small's lawyers claim a
victory. They say the decision of the
New York court was to the effect that
the directors could dispose of the Min
neapolis interests. If not prevented by
the Minnesota courts, but as the courts
of the state have decided that the di-
rectors do not have this power, the de-
cision operates wholly in their favor in
stead of against them.

memory of their great exploits Of year
ago? 1t looks as if some 81 them wanted
all the hopors, and were not willing to
share with the other members. The
watch dog of the city treasury-John +.
Catderwood-whO was at one time the
great society leader of the club, seems
to be keeping away from 1t, and has
nothing to say about the club having
brace Of captains. John is very fond OF
harmony, and Is not at all anxious to
mix in the war that is raging in the
ranks of the unfaithful. An attempt to
buy barrel of oil to replenish the
torches and cool the troubled waters has
failed miserably, and an assignment
may be made at any moment.
E. j. Davenport is much put out over
the criticisms of the Minneapolis press
on his methods of collecting the census.
Ed was more or less Indifferent about
giving up anything for publication
until the middle of last week, when he
punch up the people, one-half Of the
citizens would not be enrolled. Ed
wants to go to the state senate the COM
ing winter. AID he recognizes the fact
that he will have hard fight if the
newspapers oppose him. He is a poll
tician for revenue only, and some OF his
constituents are realizing that fact now,
and propose to see that he is taken care
OF if the census returns do not show
well for Minneapolis.
Aid. Melvin Grimes, of the Eighth
ward, is figuring for the legislature,
Notwithstanding the fact that if he
offered to move out of the ward the
citizens there would probably pay the
express charges on his furniture, if he
promised not to return. His course
during the Anderson & Douglass fight
for street railway franchise made him
many enemies, and his candidacy. in
joke than anything else. But he has
lots of money behind him, and that Is
going to be the great factor of Repub-
lican success this year. His terp OF
Office in the city council does not ex-
pire for two years more. but that will
not prevent him from becoming legis-
lative candidate, as he will not be OBJ
liged to resign his present Office to en-
ter the Legislative field. Judge Tor
renee, who is trimming his sails for the
same office, laughs at Grimes presump-
ton, and says if he has no other OPP
ponet than Grimes, he can continue his
law business without any interruption
during the campaign, and be elected,
too.
Aid. Hansen and Sterling are already in
the field for the aldermanic nomination
in the Eighth ward with chances favor
ing new man. Mr.. Tousely. the Lake
street hardware merchant, is much
talked of at pretent for this office, as
also is w. A. Broom. of Harrison, Far
rington & Co., and r. F. SaXtOn, of the
old hardware firm of Saxton & Phillips.
Sterling cannot possibly get re-nom-
nation after his connection with the
recent Doodle charges, and Hansen was
always regarded as politician of ex-
ceptionally light weight.

Tardy Saloonkeeners.

Last night, when the city clerks
office closed, not more than 215 applica-
lions for liquor license had been filed.
Last year there were $50 licenses, or
Whereabouts, granted. According to the
present outlook some of the Saloon
Keepers either contemplate going out of
business or do not understand the regu-
lations. Applications for license filed
hereafter cannot be acted upon by July
LIST, consequently it appears that some
saloons will have to close their doors.
