pie who should fill the pews, if they do
not, may come to a better understand
ing. 1t is no doubt the safe prac-
tice for the instructor in sacred things
to seek his first inspiration from above,
as the celestial geography is understood.
Then those who are an observant part
of the elements to be reached may af-
ford useful suggestion. There is nat
ural indisposition in the quarters where
the most valuable information is to be
had to display of officiousness, but
the pulpit might be materially aided by
solicited advice as to the means of ex-
tending its radius. 1t is evidently
transitional period for the pulpit in its
relations to the people. Its voice must
have variations to conform to the needs.
Only the cOmpunctiOnS of sense of
duty will take people to churches VIII ere
the preaching does not seem to them
helpful and adapted to their wants. 1t
would be fdllaeious theory that the
people are losing their interest in the
themes that are specially assigned to
the pulpit. Probably there never has
been more general and intelligent
thought devoted to the higher problems
of lite, but there is growing disinclin-
alton to accept the old methods of pres
entation and treatment. MOODY, even,
is alleged to depart from his desk in
Chicago because he has lost his ability
to hold his audience. The people not
only want live man to teach them.
but they want to be sure that he has
higher mission than to earn his salary.
The fact that the world moves at a
speed not historical needs to be deeply
realized by the pulpit.

TOO BAD. TOO BAD.

The Western congress has completed
It's session, and has settled all the veXed
problems of contemporary society in as
satisfactory manner as could be eX-
pected, considering the absence of IG-
NATIUS DONNELLY from its deliber-
ations. His failure to attend was a
grievous disappointment to the Kansas
reformers, and interfered with the pres
entation of one of the most interesting
spectacular features which had been
prepared for the occasion.
The GLOBE was early let into the
secret, and has kept it religiouSly up to
this point. But, now that the congress
is through, it does no harm to allow the
general public share in its precious
knowledge. Be it known that the most
elaborate preparations had been made
to give the Sage royal greeting as he
entered the assembly. The most famous
female vocaliSts who had been edu-
Gated in the best public schools of Kan
sas City, Mo-, and Kansas City, Kan,
had been carefully trained by a sweet
singer from Nebraska. The programme
was to conceal this chorus behind a
curtain of the cOstliest grade of tapestry
cheesecloth, embroidered by the ladies
of the first Kansas City families with
appropriate notices. such as Hail to
the Chief" Its Cold Day When He
Gets Left and the like.
AS the senator from Dakota county
started down the center aisle toward his
seat bonfireS were to be kindled at vari-
Gus points in the hall on temporary cast
iron platforms, which were to be erected
for the purpose, and throng of pratt
tling school children was to hurry in ad-
vance of him, ,Strewing his path with the
rarest sort of Kansas City, Mo-, and
Kansas City, Kan. roses. In the midst
of the excitement and enthusiasm thus
occasiOned, the cheesecloth curtain
was to be drawn aside, and the chorus
OF Kansas City American beauties, un-
der the leadership of the choregus from
Nebraska. was to eXciaim in the shrillest
concerted treble of which their cultured
lungs were capable, Lift up your
heads, 0 ye gates. and be We lifted up,
ye everlasting doors. and the king of
glory shall come in" After a pause,
DllVhy SlIcCOlfc. lHc llOIcSdlu SWctb
singer from Nebraska was to ask in
tuneful solo, "Who is this king of
glory? Who is this king of glory?' and
then vast bass roar was to 90 up from
all the assembled throng of the saviorS
OF society, "IGNATIUs SoCKLEss-JER-
RY SIMPSON BEARDED PETER Ed
wARD-BELLAMY DONNELLY. He is the
king of glory. SeIah."
The grandeur of such spectacle,
while Mr.. DONNELLY took his seat,
suffused with the bushes which his
well known modesty would bring to
his pale cheeks, cannot be painted in
words. 1t is crying shame that his
duty to his constituents kept him at
home and compelled the elimination of
this, the most interesting feature of the
congress.

DREW TEARS FROM ALL.
An Affecting Scene at the Union
Depot Yesterday.

A very sad affair came under the no
tice of the officials at the union depot
yesterday. About an hour before the
Milwaukee train arrived from Chicago,
a very respectfully dressed man walked
up to the barrier and inquired of the
ticket taker when the train would arrive
and which platform it would draw up
at. He was given the desired informa-
ton, and then gOod-naturedly told the
railroad man he was expecting his wife
and child from Europe. He was elated
at the thought of once again meeting
his life partner and clasping to his
arms the babe born few months after
home to brave the perils of an ocean
voyage to find in this vast continent a
spot where he could found for his family
a more happy resting place than the one
he had known under the deS-
potlsm of the iron rule of Bis
marck. Early and late he had
worked denying himself, sometimes
the actual necessities of life, in order to
send money to his wife for her subsist-
ence, and put by a little towards fur
niShinr new home. A few weeks ago
he wrote his wife that he was in posi-
tion to have her come to the new West
ern home. and sent her sufficient money
for the journey. She was expected to
arrive yesterday and the anxious hus-
band walked up and down the depot,
ever and anon taking a picture from
his pocket to look at his loved ones
features. He conjured up vision of
how, in few minutes, the train would
arrive with rush and a roar, and
amidst the hustle and noise pair of
loving arms would clasp his neck, while
tiny prattler would cling to his knees
anxious to receive fathers caress.
There were many people in the depot
waiting on a similar mission, and
glanceS were often sent to the direction
of the Stalwart man gazing with fervent
eyes upon the picture he held in his
hands, Slowly the large hand of the
clock in the depot neared the hour Of
arrival. and in the distance was heard
the clang of the bell of the locomotive.
With mighty throbS the engine slowly
drew its burden down the last hundred
yards of the journey, and soon stood at
rest.
George Blanck. who lives on Edmund
street. was the man expecting his wife
and child. He rushed up to the travel
stained cars looking for his loved ones,
prepared to giveithem royal welcome,
for his heart was full of Joy. AT
last he sees the one he loves
dearer than life itself, and strides
towards her. Her face is pale and
drawn, but that he thinks must be from
travel, and nursing the babe she carries
in her arms. The tears coursing down
her cheeks. he thinks. are tears of joy
at meeting her protector after the weary
years of separation. He clasped her to
his arms and then stopped to kiss the
n 81 in re
mothers arms. The poor woman's lips
moved, but no sound Issued from them.
Suddenly sharp cry of pain was heard
by bystanders, and Blanck threw up his
hands and gave way to bitter fit of
crying. The babe he had stopped to
kiss was indeed asleep, sleeping the
long slumber which comes to all. An
hour before the train arrived the little
one had died.

BONDED GOODS IN TRANSIT.
The Treasury Department Will
Abolish Consular Sealing


Abolish Consular Sealing.
WASHINGTON, April 1S.-As soon as
the necessary preliminaries can be ar
ranged, the treasury department will
issue set of regulations for the treat
ment of bonded goods in trans
portation. The system of consul
lar seal in as now practiced
will probably be abolished. The secre-
tary finds that nearly the whole time of
United States conSulS at some ports III
the domain of Canada is taken up in
sealing cars for transportation of goods
in transit through the United States.
Moreover the traffic has grown to
such proportions that it is beyond
the ability of the DEPART
ment to make sure in all cases that
goods are not dropped off at points
within the United States with resulting
loss to the government of its legitimate
revenues from dutiable goods so i'm
ported. The system of consular sealing
is, therefore, to be aboli shed. In its
place goods in transit through the
United States will be stopped at the
nearest port Cn the border and examined
by treasury officers who will place upon
the cars treasury locks and thus guaran-
tee the integrity of their contents and
make sure their complete delivery at
port of expectation. Secretarx Foster
is moving with caution in the matter.
and to make sure that the departments
course will be within legal authority,
has called upon the attorney general
for definition of the scope of the ex-
isting statutes bearing on the subject.

COMES NATURAL TO HIM.
A Famous Cowboy Pianist in ST.
Paul Who Never Took q Lessen.

Some old Latin philosopher is credit
ed with saying that poets are born and
not made. The old Roman was prob
ably right. but his saying was just as
true of musicians as of poets. There is
in the city this week an excellent illus
tration of that fact in the person of
Texas Bill, the cowboy pianist. Bill
grew up on the plains without ever hav-
ing seen a piano. But the spark of true
genius burned IN his soul. only waiting
for opportunity to fan it into flame.
The day came when advancing civiliza-
ton brought with it piano. Bill was
at home in minute. 1t did not take
him long to learn to play the new in
strument, for it came natural to him. He
is now Que of the most wonderful players
in the world-and all without a single
lesson. One of his feats is to throw
sheet over the piano and play it blind
folded. Bill is at the ST. Paul museum
this week. So are Nine. Carver, the tat
woman. and her ridicuiously tiny child;
so is Sol Stone, the most famous of the
lightning calculatOrs. The skit on the
middle stage is by the popular Hallies
and is called "a Lively Corpse" The
olio of specialists on the lower stage is
one of the strongest that money could
procure.

MR.. sMALLEY's OPPORTUNITY

Our Stalwart and strong minded fel-
low citizen, EUGENE V. SMALLEY, was
the hero Of all entertaining episode at
Kansas City on Friday. When the
Western congress was about to adopt
the creed formulated for it by the ma
jority of its committee on resolutions,
he called the heavens to witness that
there was a lurking plot to ensnare him
in Democratic pOw-wow, and, draw
ing his sword, declared that he would
sell his honor and his life dearly.
1t is not an easy matter to catch a
member of the st. Paul chamber of COM
merce in ambush, and the interested
public will be glad to know that the Wig
orous editor of the Norwestern Maga-
Ziue made good his escape from the trap
the grangers had laid for HIM, and that
his flight, through precipitOus, was
achieved without loss of dignity or per-
SOnal Disagreement, and that he lives TO
fight another day.
The GLOBE does not see clearly how it
would have been possible for The con-
greSS to have adopted resolutions which
would not have conceded with the prin-
SipiNo VI OliC poilllCdl patty VI lllG OUlct !,
and, while it is open to conviction, it
cannot for its life understand how the
majority show ed higher sort of obsti-
macy in sticking to its opinions than did
our genial representative in insisting on
his own, even to the point of depriving
his colleagues of the pleasure of his So
ciety. 1t looks little like the old story
of the eleven obstinate jurymen who
would not yield to any reasoning or per-
suasion which the other one brought to
bear on them.
The GLOBE is sorry that Mr.. SMALLEY
did not take advantage of the oppor-
tunity the occasion afforded to come out
from among the friends of coercion and
monopoly. 1t was rare chance. and a
man of his physical and intellectual
abilities would be warmly we lcomed to
the ranks of the Democracy

Repudiated by Relatives.

Coroner Quinn yesterday received
letter from A. B. Hine, cashier of the
First National bank at Kingsley, Kas.,
relative to Ben Levy, who was killed at
Gladstone, on the st. Paul & Duluth
tracks last Wednesday. Mr.. Hine
stated that the parents and relatives of
Levy, who live fifteen miles out of the
city, absolutely refuse to have any
thing to do with the burial of the dead
man. Mr.. Hine states, however, that
Levy has on deposit at the bank a
number of notes which fall due during
the next few months, and offers to bury
the dead man.
Coroner Quinn stated yesterday that
he would give the dead man proper
interment at Oakland, in accordance
with the wishes of Cashier Hine.

GOOD DEPARTURE

Perhaps it will prove happy innova-
ton upon the usual order, if it is such,
on the part of the pastor of the Peoples
church, in taking representatives of all
the phases of society and the com
munity into his cabinet or advisory
council. The immediate object is spe-
cial and limited one, although bound
less in its sphere. If one were disposed
to be critical, there would be surprise at
the omission from the inquiry of the sex
that has the larger interest in church
affairs and all works designed to ele-
vate community. Possibly later
series or line of inquiry will meet this
palpable omission. 1t is, however, de-
parture that may have variations and
expansions. The pulpit and the pee-

as A SCIENCE.

A whist congress has been in session
at Milwaukee the past week. 1t was
composed of enthusiasts of the game, of
course; but they are, at least on other
subjects, usually regarded as level-head-
ed men-it is believed there were no
ladies admitted to seats. In fact, it is
one of the concerts of the artistic and
scientific whist player that its problems
are too abstruSe, Intricate and taciturn
for the female intellect and constitu-
ton. 1t Is intimated that the sort of
whist participated in by ladies in social
life has about the same relation to the
profunditieS of the art fostered by the
clubs and their congress that the little
meaningless side shows to certain secret
societies, TO which ladies are admitted.
do to the real arcana of the order.
Women are as alien to recondite
whist as to philosophers of Mason
ry. The theory advanced at Mil
waukee. and even elaborately en-
forced in the American Cyclopedia, is
that whist is an educational process, pro-
ducing the best results of a study of the
classics and the most abstruse mathe-
matlcS. For those who have not been
so fortunate as to have had their mental
development and equipment shaped and
Illuminated in the higher educational
walks, this new, or perhaps advanced,
phase of an ancient game comes as a
substitute. The Milwaukee congress
did not have that sort of legislative po-
tency; but, i'll connection with it's in
fiuences it is suggested that whist be
made substitute in the high schools
and academies for mathematics and
the branches that are particularly de-
signed for mental discipline. 1t is
probable that it would be popular, but
the difficulty of adaptation to the other
sex would have to be met, unless it is
regarded as facility to enable the male
intellect TO keep TO the livelier pace the
girls are said to be setting.
