DR.. Ingersoll Gives the Christian
EndeavoPers Timely Advice.
Rev. DIR. Ingersoll addressed the
Christian EndeavorerS at the House of
Hope church last evening. The burden
of his discourse was to emphasize the
urgent necessity of more persistent and
consistent efforts in the object work of
the organization. He drew largely from
historical legendary lore to illustrate
the points of his argument as he pro-
ceeded. Solomon said, Il sleep, but my
heart waketh," and the doctor recited a
narrative to show the peculiarly of
sleep, and, moreover. to show that the
true soldier. no matter how sound the
sleep. is never unmindful of his duty.
He employed the Damascus blade i'll
metaphor to Illustrate the way i'll which
the soul may be loyal. The blade may
be bent like hoop, but it invariably
flies back into its normal shape the IN
slant that it is released. So with the
soul. 1t may be bound in affection and
weighted in want, but springs back to
its loyalty to God. The element that is

John C. McCarty Appointed to
Act as Deputy Building
Inspector.

The supreme court yesterday handed
down seven decisions, two of which
were per curtain, and five were signed
by Judge Dickinson.
The first and most important was
per curtain decision involving the con-
stitutionality of chapter 5lS. Special
Laws OF 1889. providing that one-fourth
of the money paid for liquor licenses i'll
the village of Gibson, Sibley county.
should be paid over to the school dis
trct in which the village is situated.
The court holds that the law is constitu-
tional; that the act Is not a grant OF
corporate powers or privileges" nor
of special or exclusive privilege, im-
munity OF franchise" within the mean-
ing of the constitution. The decision
is as follows:
State of Minnesota ex rel. William Webster:
respondent vs. John c. Beck, treasurer OF
the village of Gibbon, respondent. Order
affirmed PER CURTAIN.
A special law providing for the pay
ment to a particular school district of
the money received for liquor licenses.

trict, is not unconstitutional.

affirmed. DICKINSON. j.
A and B being the owners Of con-
tiguous lots, A erected building on his
lot. which by reasono a mistake as to
boundary encrOached upon the lot of b.
Being about to build on his lot, and the
parties both supposing that the wall of
his building was wholly on his own lot.
while in fact it was wholly on the lot of
B, they entered into a contract by the
terms of which that wall was to be
used and permanently maintained as
party wall. A also conveyed
to B strip one foot wide from his lot.
contingent to the lot of B, upon which
strip the wall was in part supposed to
stand, there being no mistake in the
party wall agreement, but only i'll re-
spect to the true boundary, which was
only ali inducement to the making of
the contract. Held, that the party wall
agreement was not void; that it could
not be treated by b as nullity, and
that so long as it stands uncanceled
neither B nor his assigns Ghe contract
having been awarded,) can eject A or
his assigns from the premises covered
by the party wall.
