A special meeting of the board OF
directors of the exposition was called
yesterday morning for the purpose OF
taking action relative to number OF
subjects of Importance. The meeting
was one of the largest ones held for
some time and nearly all of the direct
ors were present. The meeting was
held in executive session. A rcom-
mittee. consisting of Messrs. Regan,
Steele and OleSOn, was appointed TO go
to st. Paul for the purpose of inviting
Gov. Merriam and staff to participate
in the opening exercises and to be the
guests of the exposition management
on the day of the opening. 1t Is eX,
pected that the governor and staff VIII
appear in full uniform and take part
in the parade. A number OF other
subjects, which were not made puollc
by the board. were also discussed ana
taken under advisement. The board then
adjourned until next Friday morning at
IL clock, at which time all of the COM
mittees will report, and all the arrange
ments for the opening day will be COM
pleted. The committee on opening eX-
ercises is preparing an elaborate pro-

one of its kind ever seen in the North
west.
The representations of the ruins OF
the homes of the ancient cliff dwellers,
which have been nearly completed, are
admirably executed. They are made
from the photographs which were col
lected by Art Director Smith, and they
are accurate representations. The i'm
mense cliff rises from the floor to the
ceiling, making it nearly forty feet in
height. and the material of which it is
constructed gives it the appearance OF
| being made of real sandstone.
The pictures have nearly all been
hung in the art gallery under the per
sonal supervision of Art Director Smith,
and the effect is very fine. The col
lection of photographs and paintings
illustrative OF Western scenery, is I'M
doubtedly the finest of its kind ever
shown in any art gallery.

of the sermon she approached him and
extended her hand. He slowly grasped
it with half-timid, half-reSentful ex-

brave efforts to prevent it the tears
started in his eyes. She then began
conversation with him, the glst of which
she afterward gave me:
''YOur people are all forsaking their
false, idolatrouS teachings and embrac-
ing the religion of Jesus Christ, which
can alone save them. The drums,
images and wicked emblems which they
used are not pleasing in the sight OF
the Lord, and they wish to hide them
from His sight forever. What shall
they do with them?"

The Images Destroyed.
Mrs. Dempsey spoke few words in
loud tone OF voice, and the dusky be-
levers crowded around the once
naughty but now humbled medicine
man. Explanations of surprise and de-
| light were heard on every side, and
many pressed forward to clasp his hand.

eyes, all of them. They shall be
used no more"
To huts and tents the people hurried,
and soon returned bearing all the para
phernalia used in their late idolatrous
dances and worship. There were In,
dian drums, or ''tOmtOmS," wooden and
stone images, stats gaYly ornamented
with beads and feathers and many other
emblems which were once regarded as
sacred. These were all piled in heap
outside the council house and set on
fire. and as the smoke of their burning
went up. the Indians circled around the
fire, singing the songs of the church.
Yesterday Rev. Mr.. De Bolt, pastor OF
the Methodist church at Tower, went
up to the village and baptized twenty
two converts, and was asked to return
in week. when many more would be
ready for the administration OF the rite
As each candidate approached to re
ceive the rite. he or she was given a
Christian name, selected by Mrs. Demp
sey from the Bible. Wake-mon-Wet
was christened Jacob, and is now adj
dressed by all his people by that name,
He is very proud of it, and says to al
visitors:
"Wake-mon-web very bah man. Some
time lie, sometime steal, many time
drink whisky. Jacob very good man:
he find Jesus. Jacob big chief, but
when Jesus speak he little child. My
heart once very bad; now it sing all
day like little bird and feels warm fol
everybody"
This work has but just begun, and the
missionaries express the belief that ii
| will extend over the entire Chippewa
nation. 1t should attract the attention
and encouragement of the Christian ele-
ment over all the land. Rev. De Bolt is
greatly interested in the work, but his
duties in Tower are SO heavy that he
can give but little time to the advance
ment of the wonderful revival.

The threatened strike of packers and

to the naiIers. The nailerS made their
demand for more wages yesterday

Mrs. Dempsey announced that they
would sing the old familiar hymn {:
"Come, thou fount of every blessing. "
and, in the Chippewa tongue, the hymn
was rendered in a manner that sur
prised pale-face visitors. The low,
musical tones of the Indian voice are
proyerbial, and when they flowed in the
tluuid melody of song the effect was
magical.
After the singing all knelt upon the

He began in low, soft, musical voice,

with apparent earnestness. Gradually
he warmed up to his subject, until his
clear, ringing, voice could nave oeen
heard far out upon the bosom OF the
tongue, and. although we pale faces
could not understand word he ut
tered, we could read eIoquence in hi:

gesture. His words seemed to fall upor

congregation. and every swarthy face
