Protection From Fire.

Wire Inspector Deming has COM
pleted pamphlet of rules for the cleo
trio wiring of buildings. They have
been very carefully prepared and com
pared with those existing in other cities.
The arc system of wiring is first con-
sidered. Caution is necessary that the
outside conducting wires should not ap-
proach nearer each other that one foot,
and should never be allowed in contact
with any substance save their supports.
Wires running over buildings must be
at least seven feet above the fiat roofs
and one foot above the ridge of pitch
roofs. Inside wires (high tension) must
not be concealed, but must be kept in
plain sight at least ten inches apart, eX-
cept in damp placesIwhere they must be
separated at least one and half feet.
These same requirements apply to in
candescent lamps whether on arc light
circuits OF run in series, save that the
precaution of switch is required in
the latter case.

He HAD TRAVELLED,
But He Traded His Vest and Shoes
for Beer


The only interesting case before the
municipal court yesterday was that of
William Lowry, who was charged with
drunkenness. William was evidently
man of education, and pleaded his own
case. He said his home was in Ireland,
but he had not seen it for many years.
He told the court that he had served in
the English army, had travelled in South
Africa and came to America to see the
country. His money, he claimed, was
deposited with his bankers, Brown
Bros, of Wall street, New York. and
the other day he had sent for $1,000.
"The officer says you traded your vest
for a glass of beer last night" SAID the
court. els that true?'
at is" was Mr.. Lowry's smiling re-
Spouse.
''And you exchanged your shoes for
that old pair, did you?"
81 did. and so cents in addition"
"You can go this time" said the
judge, ''but see to it that you don't get
caught this way again, or we will put
you to work"
August Peterson was before the court
on the charge of bastardy preferred by
Anna Steuboni. He pleaded not guilty
and was held in $500 for an exami-
nation to-day. Eight DRINKS and one
vagrant were disposed of in the usual
manner. Walter Scott. Leonard Gros-
sen and Otto Ottner, the three small
boys who were arrested on Thursday
night, on the charge of defacing the
cars in the 500 yards, were discharged
with reprimand by Judge Mahoney
yesterday. The boys had spent the
night in the lookup, and the court
thought that sufficient punishment.

TIE boo" GANG AT WORK.
Two of Its Members Rob a Tailor
Store.

Store.
One of the most desperate robberies
ever attempted in Minneapolis happened
about 8 o'clock last evening in full view
of the police and directly across the
street from the North side police sta
ton. One of the men was caught be-
fore he had gone very far, but the other
one managed to get away. Shortly before
9 o'clock Lieut.. Nelson was standing in
front of the North side police station
when he noticed two men enter A. f.
Leutz's tailor shop, Immediately oppo-
site. One man knocked Mr.. LeutZ
down, while the other grabbed bolt of
cloth off the counter and ran down
Washington avenue. The fellow who had
knocked Mr.. LeutZ down commenced go
ing through his pockets in search of his
pocketbook. The cries of the PROSTATE
man alarmed the thief, and just as the
lieutenant, who had hurried across the
street, reached the sidewalk the man
started to run up Washington avenue.
Patrolman John Rice, who had heard
the cries, saw the man run, and
with the lieutenant started after
him. Rice outran the thief, and
just as he made a vicious
lunge at the officer he received a blow
from the patrolman's club that sent him
sprawling on the sidewalk. He was
taken to the station, where he gave the
name of James Smith and said he lived
at sos Sixth avenue north, but the
officers recognized him as Jim Fair
banks, one of the most dangerous men,
bers of the "Boo gang" He was
taken to the central station
and Police Surgeon Matchen dressed
his injuries. On the top of his head
was cut. made by the officers club,
over three inches long. While the sur
geon was sewing it up he never whim-
pered, although the pain must have
been intense. When he was informed
that he would not be tried in the munic-
ipal court, but would probably be sent
to Saltwater, he argued with the Off
GERS that his offense was not burglary.as
he had not broken anything to get into
the store. Fairbanks is well known to
the police of Minneapolis, st. Paul, Du-
luth and Ashland as an all-rOund thief,
and has served number of terms in
the different warehouses and prisons OF
the Northwest.

CLOSING THE MISSION.
What the Sermon Was Last Night
and Future Subjects.

Rev. Father McKenna, o. P, last
night, before one of the greatest crowds
yet gathered in the Dominican church,
preached one of the strongest sermons
he has yet delivered. His sub
ject was 1.-THE holy Sacrifice of
the Mass" He first spoke of sa-
cred sacrifice in generaI-showing
its necessity. The first instincts of ere
ated reason proved it. Then in eloquent
word painting he described the progress
and variety of sacrifice in the increas-
ing ages of the world-some approved
of God, others spurned. The44 after
reciting the proving words of the Script
ure, where sacrifice is commanded by
the Divinity from man, and again in
the new testament, st. John, where the
mode and the essence of this sacrifice is
particularized, the preacher, in vivid
language. demonstrated the Catholic be-
lief in the holy sacrifice of the mass.
Tomorrow Father Splinter will preach
at the high mass at 1890 a. m. 1t is
understood that it will be on subject
of special interest and importance. On
Sunday night the mission closes with
what promises to be a splendid grafton
In veneratiOn of the name of God by
Father McKenna. Then the mission
closes with Papal benediction. On next
Tuesday night Father McKenna lectures
on Marriage and Divorce as Considered
by the Church"
The following night, Wednesday, he
lectures on 'Intemperance." All the
Catholic societies of the city will attend
these lectures. !;

To Save Th cir Nickels.

The board of directors of the asso-
ciated charities intends to start prov
ident fund for the poor people of the
city. The idea is to start stamp stations
in different places of business in the
city, at which will be sold stamps at
different valuations, ranging from to
so cents. These stamps are in reality
the receipts for the money deposited.
When enough has accumulated, it is the
intention of the board to have the
holders draw and deposit the amount in
a savings bank where it can draw in
terest. Secretary Holt says that it has
long been the intention of the board to
devise some means of inducing the
very poor to save their money. which is
too little to deposit in savings bank,
and he thinks the plan will do world
of good. The plan will be tried in the
near futuro.

The Norwegian synod.

. Rev. Mr.. Korn, of DEBORAH, Ia, one of
the leading ministers of the meeting.
opened the third days session of the
Norwegian Lutheran synod yesterday
morning. He enlarged upon the fact
that there was a growing tendency
among church members toward worldly
matters. They worked more for worldly
riches than for treasures in the Lord.
He accused the ministers themselves of
being hardly less so than their congre-
cations, and said that they were forever
looking to where they could get the
largest salaries, instead of where they
could save the most souls.
Rev. Mr.. Strand, of Albert Lea, made
the most novel talk of the meeting, by
criticising the practice becoming SO
prevalent of people insuring their lives.
He made the strange assertion that life
insurance. as it increased. showed
Christianity to be on the retrograde.
Rev. Mr.. Hines, of Grand Forks, and
Prof. Mikketsen, of Sioux Falls, fol-
lowed with addresses, and the morning
session closed. The afternoon meeting
was devoted to business.

ienumerator. Willard was taken before
u. S. Commissioner, O'Dell, for examin-
lation. Mr.. Brock testified that he had
asked Willard the usual questions and
that he had refused to give the date of
his enlistment. Capt. Wilkinson and
First Sergt. Scannell of company E.
IcOrrobOrated the enumeration. Willard
testified that he had told him all
he knew about himself except
the date Of his enlistment. He did not
know when he enlisted, but it could be
found out by sending to New York for
the papers. He knew that he had en-
listed when he was thirty-three years
old and he was fifty-five now. Willard
was held in his own recognizanee to APP
pear before the October term of the
U. S. court for trial. 1t is not thought

Tbe Northern MilI starts.

The Northern Mill company, at
Thirty-secoDd avenue and First street
north, has begun to run day and night.
AS soon as the news became known
crowds of people began to gather about
the mill, until nearly 500 people stood
about the building. AS soon as the mill
started up and the noise of the machin-
ery reached their ears the crowd
cheered, and the clapping of hands con-
tinued for some moments. The event
means much for North Minneapolis.
Mill hands have been without employ
ment and business has suffered in con-
sequence. The opening of the work
will mean the distribution of some $780,
600 month to needy toilers, and bust
ness will boom again in that locality.

THAT STONE TRUST.
The Trust Commences a Warfare
Against Gibson. i

The union stonecutters employed by
John Gibson. who withdrew from the
stone trust, have walked out, and it is
claimed their action was the result of
an agreement between the trust and the
stonecutters' union, by the terms of
which union men are TO work for no one
but the members of Cut Stone Contract
ors' association. Meanwhile, it is
claimed, the trust is paying the wages
of the idle men, pending an appeal
to the International Stonecutters' union.
The question of making the boycott of
Gibson permanent has been referred
by the stonecutters to their national.
officers. Mr.. Gibson says that he is
having no difficulty in getting workmen
enough to fill his contracts notwlth-
standing the strike. But the matter
doesn't rest there. 1t is the belief of
Mr.. Gibson that the actions of the trust
in thus securing the discontinuance of
work by his men make them amenable
to the conspiracy law. The matter was
