THEIR NEW PASTOR.
Lowry Hill COngregatiOnalists
Liked His First Appearance.

Lowry Hill COngregationaIist
Liked His First Appearance.
The members of the Lowry Hill Con-
gregatiOnal church listened to their new
pastor for the first time last night. Rev.
Harlan 2. Beach. D. D., arrived in Min
neapOlif Saturday morning. His wife
came with him. Yesterday he appeared
before his new congregation for the first
time. 1t is safe to say that his people
were more deeply interested in his
personality than in his sermon. Mr..
Beach is a StTiking-IOOking man in
some ways. He does not look like
man vino Will get his name into the
papers very often in connection with
grand Jury investigations, Summing
tours. interviews on political matters,
etc. He looks, rather, like a man who
is content to do his work in quiet
manner, but effectually withal. He
seems the sort OF man who will lead his
own particular congregation into the
perfect life before setting out to con-
vert all the people who. perchance.
hold religious views different from
his. He is q large man. slight
" inclined toward embonpoint He
has frank, open countenance,
and a winning smile. A heavy mus
tache is his only facial adOrnment. In
the pulpit he speaks in a mild. per-
suasiVe tone. as one who would win by
pleading, rather than by coercion. He
made a good impression on his audience
yesterday.
DR.. Beach was born in South Orange,
Y. J.. in 1854. After graduating he en-
tered the service of the American Board
of Foreign Missions. He was appointed
a missionary TO China. and went to that
country in 1883. He was located a little
east OF PekIn, and labOred among
the Chinese in educational and
evangelical work for six years.
Owing TO the i'll health of Mrs. Beach
the doctor was obliged to return to this
country nineteen months ago, and uD to
last winter made Cambridge. Mass, his
headquarters. Since mis- return from
China he has been visiting different
churches on the work Of the mission
board. He has spoken in Minneapolis
three times since last fall-at the con-
ventiOn of the A. B. c. T. NJ, at the
Plymouth church, where he gave
lecture on China. illustrated with dis
solving views, and a sermon in Rev.
Smith Bakers church, Park avenue.

THE WEEKLY PRESS.

There is much talk in Minneapolis
now about curtailing municipal ex-
penses the coming year. Many theories
have been advanced as to the best policy
to pursue in this regard. Some suggest
few public improvements. such as the
erection of fire and police stations, while
others want to see less paving and sew
ering done. Those who are acquainted
with the wants of the police and fire de-
partments know that new police sta
tons should be built in South and East
Minneapolis, and the fire department
given a new headquarters building. 1t
is not necessary to put down any more
curb and gutter for TWO years; neither
is it very essential to the city'S sanitary
condition to pave so many streets in the
next two years as were paved during
the past two. Our police and fire de-
partments should be kept I'D at all
events, and should not be considered of
as little Importance as they are wont to
be- If our city council would let I'D a
little on sewers, paving, and the like
for while, the problem of the city's
finances would solve itself.-Irish
Standard.
A popular impression is abroad. and
the statement has been published in the
daily papers. that the superintendent of
police has been granting permits for the
sale of beer at the Sunday picnics re-
Gently held in the grove near Plymouth
avenue and Fremont. Such impression,
however, Is erroneous. No such per-
mission has been given, nor is it in the
power Of the head of the police depart
ment to grant permit for such a palpa-
bic violation of the law. 1t is true that
beer has been sold at the picnics heldin
the grove this summer, the same as for
years past. but the parties engaged in
the traffic have done so upon their own
responsibility. without any promise of
immunity ON the part of the police. On
several recent occasions an attempt has
been made to evade the law by selling
tickets and giving away beer. but such
a pretext would not hold if tested in the
courts.-NOrth Minneapolis Chronicle.
City Engineer RinkeT rushes into the
daily papers with an elaborate defence
of his methods in handling the sewer
work on Cedar avenue. Mr.. Rinker
must have judged the actions of the
meeting on Cedar avenue last Tuesday
night by the headlines in some of the
papers. No one was roasted and no
resolutions were passed. It was simply
a meeting called to institute proper in
quiries as to the progress OF the work
on Cedar avenue. Those interested will

be gratified to hear from such reliable
authority as the city engineer that
there is absolute certainty that the
cars on Cedar avenue will be running
long before cold weather." They
would feel much easier. however. If the
crew OF men on the works could be rein
fOrced.-SOuth Minneapolis Telegram.
For it must be clear to the narrowest
mind that what Minnesota is to-day she
owes TO immigration. and particularly
to the farmer immigrants. Why, elm
mate this element, whether foreign or
native. and the state would be nowhere
except as geographical name OH the
maps. And the need of immigration
continues almost as pressing as ever. 1t
is simply ridiculous to talk as if Mime
sofa were Over-pOpulated, in general, it
is the height of folly to speak as if she
could not accommodate more farmers
than at present are scattered over the
broad lands. And we believe these
views are held so generally all over the
state, that contrary opinions have no
following worth mentioning. = The
North.
Mr.. MOrrilFs investigatiOns have been
discussed pro and con. OF course he is
denounced by those whom 1.-The shoe
pinches." and is called a. 'meddler" by
those who think that clergymen and
newspapers should be blind to evils in
their immediate vicinity, lest their city
get some unsavOry advertising. People
who believe in the exposure and re-
moYal rather than in the hiding and
covering up of corruption should have
enough moral courage to uphold Mr.
Morrill, and all other sincere defenders
of decency in their efforts for the pro-
motion of law and order. -SpectatOT.
Every man and woman should go up
and down the world with an interrOga-
ton point Oh the end of the nose. To
doubt. to question, is the divine right of
man. No custom, no precedent, should
ever hold absolute sway. Because our
fathers did so, or because society does
so, is not absolute authority.-PrOgres-

form they are allowed to occupy the
same room. Then, if there was some
way by which the inebriates could
be confined longer from drink
there would be MORE hope of re-
form. The register shows some curious
things. The majority of the inmates
are from twenty-five to thirty years OF
age. Nearly all can read and write.
Most all claim to have had religious
training. They are about equally di-
vided between Catholics and Protes-
tants. a few have no religion. A good
many of the women are widows with
children. They are from almost all the
occupations, but perhaps tue common
laborer predominates. Most have been
sent up for drunkenness-I believe 80
out of 100.
The books show that nearly all have
been so sent, and the other cases, where
they have been sent for disOrderly con-
duct, can be traced to drunkenness.
When. OH when will the cursed liquor
traffic cease! When will the city stop
putting these traps in the way for the
feet of menI'

At the Thirteenth Avenue NJ. E.

his regular sermon. Rev. Thomas Nc

of a personal visit to the workhouse.

fully inserted a little paid matter to

scribed the buildings. told how many
inmates were there, gave their ages,
summarized their occupations and COM

The prison clothing, Mr.. McClary dis
covered. is ''Of a cheap quality" Then
he told what good man Superintendent
West is, aud how politicians should
have nothing to say about the tenure in
Office of such noble officials. He also
told what good man the late Warden
Reed was. bis suggestions on work
house management were as follows:
1T seems TO me 1t would be an i'm
prOVement if each prisoner had a sepa-

BIGGER THAN BEFORE.
How the Exposition Starts Off on
Its Sixth Annual Journey

How the Exposition Starts Off on
Its Sixth Annual Journey
The Exposition OF 1891 seems destined
to be the most prosperous Of all that
have been seen in Minneapolis. Al
ready the attendance shows up bigger
than ever before 1t cannot be but that
it viii grow as the show gets under
Roadway. Manager Bracket estimated
the attendance Saturday at $1,000.
There is reason why the Exposition
this year should surpass all others in
point OF attendance. In many ways it
is the most interesting vet seen in Min
neapOlis. The fish exhibit alone is a
novelty, and we'll worth a long visit.
The inhabitants of the water can there
be seen under the most favorable cir
cumstances. The exhibit of ordnance IS
another feature that will repay careful
study. even. 1t is curious sight to see
specimens of all the different kinds Of
firearms that have ever been used in
nation. 1t Is as good as an illustrated
lecture on the progress of the country.
It speaks Tor itself. Then there are
specimens Of the tools that nations Old
er than the United States used to kill
off their neighbOrs with. The cotton
gin Is another interesting piece OF ma
chineTy. The Japanese village is re-
plete with interest. The Japs are
among the most progressive people OF
the. earth. They are rapidly coming to
the front and are bound TO take a prom
Inent place among the nations Of the
earth. Their mode of life is an attract
i've subject Of study. Nothing delights
any crowd more than good music. The
Exposition has certainly provided music
that cannot fail to please. The Mexican
band, as a band for the people, cannot
be surpassed. 1t plays music that
catches the popular ear and that salts
fes the captiOus critic. The Sanford
sisters provide an entertainment that
amuses the ladies and the children.
No one, not even Il. Jay Smith him
self. claims that the art exhibit is equal
to that Of last year and some other
years, as an art exhibit purely. On the
other hand. no one will deny that the
exhibit in the art gallery Is more inter
