FROM A WArERY GRAVE.
Gallant Rescue of a Little Girl in
the MiSSiSSiDDi.

the Mississippi.
Rose Nikish, nine-year-old daughter
of Bohemian couple residing in the
vicinity of the Smith avenue bridge on
the lower flats, narrowly escaped drown
ing on Sunday afternoon. The child,
with a number of young friends, was
skating on the fringe of clear ice lining
the north side of the river channel. The
channel is open at the point referred to,
just below the bridge, for a width of
fifty feet. 1t constitutes the deepest
part of the river. The Nikish girl. with
childish daring, was vying with her
companions i'll an effort to cut close to
the edge. Several persons who were
watching her from the bridge were par
alyzed by her recklessness. Fascination
kept them gazing at the little skater until
they saw her stumble and fall head fore
most into the river. Then they screamed
and gestlculated as people generally do
In such emergencies. but their advice
could not be taken even for what it was
worth, for they were 200 feet from the
scene of the accident. James Nolan,
young man employed by the West Pub
fishing company, kicked Off his skates
and plunged into the water. The child
had sunk, but fortunately rose within
ten rect or the reScuer and unconscious.
Nolan seized her by the hair and started
for the north shore. He reached the ice
and grasped its edge. The current is so
strong that both Nolan and the child
came nearly being drawn under the foe,
but with the aid of plank and score
of skaters, who had witnessed the oc-
currence. both were landed on terra
firma. The child was found to have
struck her head IN falling, being thus
rendered unconscious before striking
the water. Mr.. Nolan is confined TO his
bed at 820 East Seventh street with
fever. the result of his submersion. The
child is found to have sustained, beyond
the cut received in falling, no injury.

n ST. Pauilte'S Remarkable Adj
vice to Young Men.
The regular fortnightly meeting of
the Peoples Church Lyceum took place
last evening in the church parlors, when
paper was read ON Interest" by E. j.
Hodgson. There was a very large at
tendance of laditS and gentlemen, who
listened carefully TO the views of the
lecturer. Mr.. Hodgson traced the his
tory or money as commercial commOi-
lty. and the necessity in commerce and
the ordinary pursuits of money beins
borrowed for meeting liabilities and for
speculation. The history of the uSury
laws was gone into, and the speaker
pronounced them as being useless. Ii
was not possible to fix rate by law at
which money could be borrowed, for if
money was plentiful the rate of interest
would be low; if money was scarce, in
terest would be high. Mr.. Hodgson,
however, defended The principle of in
tereSt, for he was sure that for young
man TO start life with borrowed money.
the knowledge that he had to pay inter-
est would cause him to put forth ener-
gies he would not otherwise display.
This statement was commented on for
and against in the discussion which
followed
Miss Eva Mcdonald made a most
brilliant speech, which surpri sed the
members of the lyceum, who are accus-
toned to hear somewhat prOSy argu-
ments. She referred in sarcastic tone
to the statement made by the essayist,
that lit was good thing for a young
man to start life with borrowed money"
She had started life free of debt and
found that it was hard struggle 10 get
along. but was sure that her condition
IN life would not have been benefited
II she had had debt standing over her
head. She also denounced the present
system which allowed men who had
acquired money, which should repre-
sent labor. to take advantage of their
less fortunate fellows and exact heavy
rates OF interest from them.
Rev. S. q. Smith. who presi led, and
Messrs. Benson. Swanson, Fairchiid.
Biggs, Dixon and Phillips also took
part in the de bate, some strong argu-
ments being made in defense of the
usurv loans, while equally forcible
statements were made against them.

matter, it was remarked that both the
Editorial association and the Fedora
ton of Labor had opposed bureau of
immigration. There were various sug-
gestions as to the best way of inducing
immigration to Minnesota, and a dis
cussion whether Minneapolis would
join in general scheme, but it was

the best, and his resolution was
