lecture last evening at the Peoples church.
Bishop Vincent is known the world over as

G. l.. S. G.. He is not an entire stranger to
St. Paul audiences. having lectured or
preached in the city several times. The
audience which greeted him last night was
from the most refined and cultured people
in the city. and he held the rapt attention
of his hearers during the entire discourse.
The subject of the lecture was tom and
His Teacher" After greeting his audience
the speaker said:
Who is Tom? Who are TOMS teachers?
What shall Toms teachers teach Tom?
These are the questions which | shall con-
slider.
Tom is the average American boy.
Whether rich or poor matters not to him.
Whether clad in hOmespun or broadcloth
matters not to him, so he has good time.
Whether he was born on American soil or
not is no matter to me. L have no sym.
pathy with the narrow mndedness which
says only those born on American soil are
Americans. So the boy or man has Amer
lean ideas and the spirit of American in
situations is sufficient to make him an
American.
Next. who are Toms teachers? 1 am
not now going to consider professional
teachers. There is great army of those.
but it is not my intention to speak of them.
l mean the great mass of unprofsssional
teachers, who have more influence upon the
boys lite than the professional teachers.

BIG LOG IA M.
Great Eastern Bridge Seriously
Threatened.

SEATTLE, Oct. 22.-rhe heavy rain OF
Tuesday caused sudden and consider
able rise in all tributaries of snohomish
river, which brought down three or
four million feet of logs and jalnmed
them against the Seattle, Lake Shore Il
Eastern bridge ut Snohomish. Grave
fears were entertained for the safety of
the bridge and railroad officials i'm.
mediately set to work to clear the chan
mel. Charge. after charge Of dynamite
was fired Into the jam without making
much impression, and finally charge
of half q ton was fired. and succeeded in
moving the great mass to some extent.
The Jam caused more anxiety because
the bridge has just been rebuilt, anu If
it had been carried away 1t would have
taken away with II the work on the
bridge of the Great Northern Railway
near the mouth of the river. Late to-
night the bridge was considered out of
danger, although trains can not pass

PENSION AGENTS BON
New Forms Will Be Required by
the New Regula-
tions.

WARRINGTON, Oct. 22.-0ne of the pro-
visions of the existing tariff law Is that
tho makers of sweet wines shall be al
lowed tho use OF grape brandies iree
rom tax, for the purpose OF fort'iying
their wines. These wines, however, are
not to contain more than "a per cent OF
alcohol after publication. Tho com
missioner of internal revenue Is charged
with the duty of transferring brandy
from the bonded warehouse or distillery
where 1t Is made to the winery.
The proper execution of this law re-
qures largo number of new stamps
and the preparation of new regulations,
but in view OF the press of other work II
will be impossible to procure a supply OF
stamps until after the lst of December.
BY that time the vintage season Will be
passed, and winemakers be precluded
this yenr from all benefits intended by
the act.
To provide against this the commits
sioner has instructed collectors at San
Francisco, New York and elsewhere to
notify persons interested that he will
consider applications to refund taxes
on all spirits which may have been used
in the fortihcation of sweet wines, pro-
vided the spirits so used, and wines so
fortified, are such that no taxes need
have been paid on the spirits. Internal
revenue officers have been supplied with
proper stamps to attach to different
packages. He has further instructed
collectors that they may use special
bonded warehouse stamps properly
altered, In lieu OF the regular stamps
required by the law, and which are to be
issued hereafter.

CHICAGO, Oct. 22.--Charles III. Thorne

California tonight over the Northwest
ern road in charge of two California
officers. They were heavily ironed and
both shackled TO seats OF the railway
coach in which they were to make the
journey They are the pair arrested In
Chicago week ago, after period of
liberty succeeding their daring escape
from San Quentin prison in 1857. Shnn
took his return cool, but Thorne, who is
under life sentence, seemed broken
hearted. lie protested earnestly that
since his escape lie has lived honestly
and would have continued to do so.
The California officers suspect the two
men have been concerned in some OF the
many robberies which have occurred
since they escaped. shinn and Thorne
deny this eMphatically. Thorne says a
convict, who was in prison with them
and whose term since expired, saw them
in Chicago a while ago and notified San
Quentin officials. This, he says, is how
the capture came about.
