STUDENTS AND THE GOSPEL.

The railroad passenger agents are now suf-
fering their annual affliction, which this sea-
son seems to have broken out in more viru-
lent form than ever before. 1t is now in the
shape of numberless applications for per-
mits for half-fare tickets. Every college aud
academy in the Northwest as it releases its
students sends. or at least allows, them to
take the first train to St. Paul where they ap-
ply for half-fare permits on the score that
they propose to spend the summer i'll preach

tice the extreme youth of many of these
would-be ministers. One of them escorted
into railroad office yesterday by an austere-
looking gentleman, probably a professor in
some academy, was certainly not over six
teen or seventeen. This was too much for
the irate passenger agent, and he promptly
refused the application.
n"
''The fact is,'' he said afterwards "that boy
has no more right to be allowed to travel at
half rates over our lines all summer than any
one else going along the street. He is GER
tainlv not minister, nor is he able to COM
mence that work even if he has it in view in
the future
There is no doubt whatever that this half
fare business is beng worked pretty hard by
the various institutions of learning around
the Twin Cities and unless the youthful
ministers are chopped off it may react and
damage those really entitled to the reduced
rates.

Charged with Cruelty to Animals.

Charles G.. Smith. the president of the
Potomac Stone Company, was arraigncd
in the Police Court this morning charged
with cruelty to animals. 1t WAS alleged
that the company engaged the Use of
teams to carry stone from the foot of
Water and Thirty.sccond streets to the
Rock Creek bridge and permitted them to
be overloaded.
Witnesses testified that in many in
stances two horses were forced to pull
loads of stone weighing 5000 and 1000
pounds up the hin near the Cleveland
place; also hills on the Woodlcy Lane
road. No hill horses were used, and fire.
qucntly portion of the loads had to be
dumped for the reason that the horses
could not pull them. Sergeant Hess,
George Smith and others told Judge Miller
that this cruelty had been the subject of
comment for several months among the
residents of that section of the city.
Mr.. Key of the Humane Society said
that he did not want to make the poor
drivers responsible for the cruelty that
Mr.. Smith was to blame for.
In giving his decision Judge Miller said
that there was no question but that the
cruelty existed, but that he could not hold
one man responsible for the errors of
another, and would therefore have to
dismiss the case.

in conjunction with central pulley and

Asubstantial band, preferably of leather,
