ment ten feet in depth, walled with
stone and paved. In the basement will

and lighted with electricity.
The Sisters of tile Good Shepherd
have, since coming to Minneapolis about
two years ago. accomplished a great
deal of good. through their efforts many
fallen WOMEN have been led TO reform
their lives, and many girls prevented
from leading lives OF shame. The SIS
tiers have now i'll the preservation
class aUout thirty girls who are being
educated, ted and clothed. Since its
Origin tile House of tile Good Shepherd
las sheltered Seventy-slX fallen women.
Many of them have reformed. and are
now leading comparatively blameless
lives. The institution is supported ell
tirely by charity, and the mother SUI

Dissolved Partnership.

At the conclusion of last nights per-
Torrance at the Pence opera house by
the London Cavity Girls the
combination went to pieces. Tur-
ner and Flynn, the song and
dance men, were partners in
the concern. Bad blood has existed for
some time between the two men, and
their luminosity eliminated last night in
a dissolution of partnership. George
Turner takes the company, with the ex-
ceptiOn of two girls; who will share
the fortunes of Flynn. The police were
present 10 prevent trouble between
the former partners. The girls who
will accompany Flynn were very abus-

Turner. Flvnn, tits SAID, will organize
another company, and Turner will
strengthen his people with other
additions. The partners are very

THE EIGHT-HOUR LEAGUE.
1t Formulates Its Legislative De-
mands and Elects Officers.

The State Eight-Hour League met at
the Labor Temple yesterday afternoon.
There was an unusually large attend
ance, about 10 delegates being present,
Duluth. Brainerd, st. Paul AMI other
cities being we'll represented. All
branches of the building trades sent
delegates. The Knights of Labor and
all unions of skilled mechanics were
also represented. President Ledger
wood ana Vice President Coughlin ten
dered their designations, and the follow
ing set of officers were elected: PreSi-
dent. j. j. Ryder: first vice president.
William OHOnnell; second vice, Peter
Walker; third vice. A. 5. Edwards; sec
rotary, II. b. Martin; treasurer, Frank
Nalesh. Eight-hOur legislation was the
principal topic of discussion. The fol-
lowing committee was appointed: j. s.
Murphy, &c. Ives. Mollie Lee.A. Schai-
Bile and Andrew Meland. This COM
mlttee is to draw up eight-hour ley
lSlatlon, and see that it is properly pre-
sented for the consideration of the leg
lslatOrs. This committee is also 10 con-
fer with the State Federation next Sun
day. and secure the aid of that body.
Eva Mcdonald, John Griffin and DR.. Z.
+. Clark We're elected delegates to the
State Federation. The legislative de-
mands of the State Eight-Hour League
will be three in number.
First-That eight hours be the legal work
day on city, county and municipal work.
Second-That eight hours be made the
legal work day for all sorts OF work where
the ten-hour day now obtains.
Third-That s. per day be the minimum
rate of wages for the eiyht-hour day on all
state, county and municipal work.
These demands will be presented as
three separate bills. Each one was
thoroughly discussed. The eight-hour
day i'll st. Paul was incidentally men
tIoued and a vigorous protest entered
that only Sl.40 day is paid. The Brain
erd delegation stated that the elght-hOur
day has been in force on city work
there for four years and $50 Il day is
the rate of wages.
Not all of the trades represented have
obtained the eight-hour day, but all are
working in that direction, and will use
every effort to have passed the legisla-
ton outlined
The discussion of eight-hOur legiSla-
ton lasted for nearly three hours and
elected some Interesting information in
regard to similar legislation in other
states. Among those taking part in the
debate We're: Delegates O'Leary, Val
esh, Goheen. Lucas. Mcdonald, Cough
I'm. Martin, Campbell, Griffin. Dona-
hue, Edwards. Murphy and Clark. The
next meeting of the league will be held
on the second Sunday i'll January, 1891,
at st. Paul labor headquarters.

AN OLD STA r. PAPER.
DR.. BurreU breaches on One of
the Lords Proclamations.

DR.. Burreii breaches on One of
the Lords Proclamations.
At Westminster church last evening
Rev. d. j. Burrell preached on IAN Old
StIte Paper" his text being taken from
Isaiah vii, Is.
Come now, saith the Lord, and let us
reason together. Though your sins be
as scarlet, they shall he as white as
snow," said Isaiah.
The children of Israel were Joined
to their idols. On every hilltop smoked
the affairs of Baal. There was here ami
there lonely lover of truth and right
eou-ness, but the multitude had for
gotten God. Then Came the Prophet
isaiah tn admOnIsh them. He affixed
this proclamation TO pillar of the
temple in sight of all the people. mas
mucn as we also have all come short of
duty, there is a lesson here for US.
Observe, first, the royal seal: Thus
saith the Lord" The authenticity of
the paper is thus vUuched for and It's
trustwOrthineSS assured. In matters
touching our spiritual and eternal veal
we want no philosophical guesswurk or
experiment.; nu if or perhaps 1t may be
so: but definite statement, and that.
too, from headquarters. When the
Lord speaks 1t Is with verify, verify:
and we may put our utmost confidence
iii it. ~
observe, second, this is word of in
vitat.on: Come. now The God who
speaks is the Creator OF the ends of the
earth. the King eternal. immortal, in
visible. he m2n I'd whom he speaks is
the creature of His hand and a rebel
against His Just authority. Between
these two there is an Infinite chasin
which is bridged by this word, Come .
He does pot call Us to trial. to sentence
OF to execution. In the SepOy rebellion
the English government blew the cap
tive rebels from the lannon's mouth.
Were God to intilct a similar penalty on
US. we should have no just occasion for
complaint; but He dos not. %
Observe, third, He calls us to a con-
ference: Come, now, let US reason to-
getner." Herein we mark the evidence
of our divine birth: for were We not
akin with Jehovah we could not face
the great problems of eternity OF hold
controversy with Him concerning them.
Ana herein We find also suggestion as
! to the reaS0nableneSs of the Christian
religion. We are not asked to accept
anything without subiecting it to the
acid test of reason. The doctrine of
justification by faith is itself based OH
the sound prIniple of common sence.
A creed and a mortal code are offered for
our acceptance, each OF them eminentiy
reasonable and worthy of all aceepta-
ton. Luther said 1--WE cannot be
Christians unless we put away our why's
and wherefOres:" but the Scriptures
say, IF any Ian lack wisdom let him
ask of God who giveth to all men liber-
ally and upbEaideth lot, and it shall be
given him.
