DIR. HOYT'S VIEWS.
He Discusses the Recent Transfer
of the Public Schools.


of the Public Schools.
In prelude to his regular sermon
last evening Rev. Wayland Hoyt, pastor
of the First Baptist church, discussed
the question of the Incorporation of the
Catholic parochial schools in the regular
public school system of the state, which
has already been pretty thorough
ly handled by the pulpit and
the press during the past month
or two. He introduced this subject by
reading that portion OF the constitution
of the state which deals with the public
schools and which specifically provides
that the funds set aside for the mainte-
nance of the public schools shall not be
devoted to the uses of any schools
where the distinctive doctrines. creed or
tenetS of any religious sect are taught.
He then proceeded to show that this
action was unconstitutional, arguing
somewhat as follows:
ut seems to me that the so-caIled
transfer is contrary to the constitution,
in that the money involved was of such
an amount as to place the state under
an obligation to the Roman Catholic
hierarchy. What was the amount in
volved? Why, 81 per school.
1.-The transferring of this property.
valued at thousands of dollars, for a
consideration of 81 involves the confer
ring OF an obligation OH the part of
those transferring the property and ac-
ceptance of that obligation Oh the part
of those receiving the property. There
fore, l say that the state is under an
obligation to the Roman Catholic hier-
archy. in sense, and that the Roman
Catholic hierarchy has a grip on the
state.
This so-calIed transfer of schools is
wrong in that the whole principle of
the teaching is of a sectarian nature. 1t
is part of the plan to have almost en-
tirely Roman Catholic tercherS in these
schools. Even though it be true that
nothing OF religious nature is taught
in these schools between the hours of 9
a. m. and p. M, nun in her eccleSi-
aStical dress is the strongest kind of sec
tartan teaching.
ut seems to me that such so-caIled
transfer is wrong and contrary to the
constitution because it is steadily work
ing toward the segregation of the schools
which clashes with the fundamental
principle of the public school system as
outlined in the constitution"
Here he read letter from F. T. Will
son, superintendent of the Saltwater
schools, which was to the effect that on
account of the crowded condition of the
schools, no transfer of scholars from the
annexed schools was possible without
sending Protestant children to these
schools, and that. as the present condi-
ton of public sentiment would not adj
nit of any such move, no change would
be made for year at least. This, he
said, certainly tended to segregate the
school children OF that city. Continuing,
he said: LET this continue, and we
will have Baptist public schools. Pres
byterian public schools, Methodist pub
lie schools and Episcopal public schools.
This is contrary to the fundamental
principles of our glorious public school
system. and un-American and unconsti-
tutional as WE'LL"

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 24.--One more of the
gang of train robbers which on the
night of Nov. 80 relieved, at Glendale,
Mo-, the Adams express messenger,
Mulrennan, of all the available valu-
ables in his care, is in custody, not of
the authorities, but of his Maker.
J Yesterdays account of the robbery
OF a train near Lamar, Mo-, told
OF the pursuit of the two desperadoes, a
fight, the death of one and the wound
ing of the other. The dead robber was
known as j. s. or S. C. Francis. He. it
is learned tonight, was the fourth man
OF the Glendale gang, whose name
was been persistently kept from
the public. The police bad
been after him for three weeks,
knowing his name, but he had, though
ignorant of their pursuit, kept away
from them until yesterday, when he
was killed by a posse in pursuit of him
for another crime. 1t is learned now
that Immediately after the Glendale
robbery he went directly to his home
in Kansas City, Mo-, where he had a
wife of about eighteen years and
baby. Since then he has moved his
family to the Kansas side. where they
were found as told in last nights dis
patches. His record has been bad one,
but his photograph never adorned the
rogues' gallery, FOR he was always able
to avoid arrest. He had long been asso-
ciated with Hedspath and ''Dink" Will
son, the two Glendale robbers still at
large, and was known as a desperate
man, and one who would fight when
cornered. He has been going under the
name of Francis for some time, but it is
not believed that that is his right title
He is not, as stated last night, cousin
of the governor of Missouri. j.
B. Francis, of Normandy, Mo-.
father Of the governor, today
said the Lamar express robber was in
no way related to the governors family.
None of the latter ever had any relatives
in Maryland, and are of Kentucky birth
and origin. The governors father says
he never heard of the express robber
before his name was printed today. The
fact that the police consider the name
Francis an alias is further proof that he
is not the man last nights dispatches
stated him to be.

ADJUSTMENTS.

"The Struggle for Life" is the attrac-
ton at the Bijou theater this week. 1t
is presented by the Frederick Paulding
company and several carloads of elabo-
rate scenery. Two performances were
given Observation-Disclosures and evening.
The theater was crowded last night,
and the audience fairly went wild over
the scenic effects. Tie play itself is an
eXtravagant melodrama, and a Senti-
ment runs through it all of so generous
a nature that one cannot help but think
that the man who wrote it must
have been a crank on that German
deHcacy known as 'blood pudding"
But the scenery Is something marvel
Gus, fguratively speaking, and renders
the production on the whole very
entertaining one. 1t is said that the
company carries more scenery than any
on the road. and it can well be believed.
The company is good one, and supports
the scenery capably. Frederick Pauld-
ing plays the leading role. and does a
fine piece of work. He is out of his ele-
ment, however, for melOdrama is be-
meath his talent.
Cleveland's Consolidated Minstrels
will commence three nights engage
ment at the Grand tonight. The COM
pany includes Frank Cushman, Arthur
Rigby, John Queen, Banks Winter, Ed
gar Wilson, Howard, Wilson, Blackford
and Talbot, Girard Leon and his sing

The DYING Propbet.

The religious sensation of Russia,
that land of religious sensations, is, just
now. the 'dying prophet" His name
is Tagarelli, and he is of Italian parent
age, but he was born at TifliS, in the
Caucasus. He has always been weakly,
and for a long time past bedridden and
helpless. Some months ago he died, to
all appearances, and preparations were
made for his burial. He lay in the cof-
fin from Saturday to Monday, when, as
he was about to be committed to the
grave. he suddenly revived. He de-
clared that he had really died and been
to heaven, where he haiebeen al
lowed to inspect the book of the record
ing angel, wherein all human deeds are
written. To all those about him he
narrated their good and evil deeds,
which he had thus come to knowledge
of, and all admitted the accuracy of the
information and begged him to intercede
for the sins there recorded. Since then
he has died regularly every week and
come to life Mondays with fresh in
formation from the other world. though
he steadfastly refuses to divulge any
thing that has come 20 his knowledge
there, except the angelic record of the
lives of his fellow men. Thousands are
focking to his cottage from all parts of
the empire to learn what is recorded of
them, and to ask his intercesslon. And
so great is the esteem In which he is
held that the ecclesiastical authorities
dare not interfere with him.

DANz' FOURTH CONCERT.

Pleased the Audience.
The announcement of popular pro-
gramme drew out good sized house to
the Danz concert yesterday afternoon
The quality of the music which Prof
DAM is furnishing the public
this year is not SO high as in
former years, but it seems to
please the patrons. 1t is a fact that
these concerts attract the best people of
the city, and that is saying a good deal
In city like Minneapolis, where most
of the people are prone to stay at home
and read sermons on Sunday. 1t seems,
however, as was suggested by a music
lover yesterday afternoon, that Prof.
DanZ might smuggle in little more
music of the class that is styled class
ical. The programme yesterday began
well. but diminished in quality
toward the close. The first number was
1t was rendered in spirited manner
and favorably received. Suppe's over
ture, Lovely Galatea," was a delight
full bit of melody, charming blending
of life and delicacy. The third number,
Beethoven'S fifth somphony, was one of
the gems of the programme. The Or
chestra seemed to catch The spirit ofthe
piece, and interpreted it in an artistic
manner. The airy "Springtide Rev.
els' pleased the audience so
much that it was encored.
Charles Freeman always wins an
encore whenever he attempts a flute
solo. Yesterday he rendered the diff
cult Air Allemand,' by Boehm, with
such Skill and feeling that the encore
was insisted upon. A. M. Shuey's rev.

q recent composition, also won an en-
core. The cornet solo, 1.-The Post Horn
I'm the Woods" by A. d. Laird, was un-
satisfactory. The programme closed
with beautiful number, a potpourri
of selections from al Trovatore."

THE PARK BOARD FIGHT.
Some New Light on the Attorney
shin.

The outcome of the fight for the park
board attorneyship is shrouded in as
much uncertainty as ever. The pre-
vailing opinion seems to be that the
Republicans, afraid of the strength of
Clay, the candidate of the Democrats,
will call caucus and agree upon
a compromise candidate. That suppo-
Sition, however, is negatived somewhat
by Henry Gjertsen's announcement
that he is still in the race, and in the
race to stay. The members of the beard
who voted against Gjertsen with such
unfiagglng regularity at the last meet
ing OF the board say that Giertsen can
never he elected. He can never sum
mon sufficient strength. Under those
circumstances, Gjertsen can scarcely be
the compromise candidate. The men
opposed to Gjertsen are so determined
in their opposition that they have
caused determined spirit-to enter into
the breast OF the GjertSen men. They
will not vote for any man whom the
other fellows have been pushing. So
ii compromise candidate be agreed
upon, he will be some man who has not
yet been mentioned. Almost every at
torney in the city who has any claim to
political prominence has been men
toned as possible candidate. Few
of them have even the remot-
is especially true of John Day
Smith. On the other hand, it is not
certain that the senator from the Eighth
ward is candidate. However much
his wise political mentors may dispute
the assertion, John Day is a candidate
for congress. The chance of becoming
attorney of the park board is slim. John
Day cannot afford to go into the fight
and run the risk of being knocked out.
1t would leave him in bad position as
candidate for greater honor. So he
is out of the question.
This park board fight has extended
into more ramifications than those who
have looked only on the surface have
any idea of. The lockwood men have
thrown themselves down so hard that
there is no help for them. On certain
ballot at the last meeting they promised
to give certain number of their votes
for another candidate in consid-
Grafton of the fact that they had
been given the same number of
votes on "a previous ballot.
They failed to keep that promise. Aid.
Gray made some enemies by his course.
The board did not want him to vote. He
refrained from voting on all the other
questions until the election was reached.
Then he voted with the persistence of a
partisan. More than that, he failed to
do certain things which he had prom
ised to do. What he had promised it is
lnadvisable to make public at this time.
1t is not Improbable that Clay may yet
be elected the attorney of the board. He
has all the Democratic votes, and he
may get some more. If the Republicans
| live up to their promises made before
the last meeting, he will be elected. 1t
was agreed that the park board cleo
tons be made non-partisan. The Dem
ocrats have kept their part of the bar
! gain. They have given the Republicans
three out of tie FIVE 4 selal positions on

THE GRAVES CASE.
An Alleged COnfession-Going to

An Alleged Confession-Going to
the Supreme Court.
DENVER, COL, Jan. 24.-Quite a SEN
sation was caused here today by the
unfounded report that Deputy Sheriff
James Wilson, who had escorted DR..
Graves from the court house to the
county Jail, and to whom the doctor is
saidto have acknowledged his guilt in
poisoning Mrs. Barnaby, has retracted
his statement and said that the doctor
has not confessed anything to him. Mr..
Wilson emphatically denies that he has
made this retraction, although Judge
Furman, attorney for DR.. Graves,
says he is confident of new
trial for his client, for he
has discovered point OH which to urge
a rehearing. He says Judge Rising
erred in his instructions to the jury in
that he instructed them to return ver-
dict of guilty if they thought the doc
tor had committed the crime. notwith-
standing the circumstantial evidence in
the case was complete. Judge Furman
has unearthed similar set of lnstruc-
tlOns in an old case here in which the
defendant was convicted, but was
granted new trial by the supreme
court Oh account of the error in the
Judges instructions.

STRIKERS THROW STONES
And Painfully Injure Lady Pas
Senger.

P1TTsBURG, Pa, Jan. 24.-The cleo
trio street car strike caused lively times
again tonight in Lower Allegheny. The
cars were not molested during the
,dey, but towards evening the
crowd began to assemble, and by
dark Beaver avenue, in the vicinity of
the car sheds, was packed with howl
ing mob of men, women and children.
Stones were hurled at the passing cars
and all sorts of distractions were
placed on the tracks. A stone thrown
through a window of car struck
lady passenger in the face,
painfully injuring her. Another
missile hit Officer Rushey in the back
and still another struck him on the leg.
He was quite seriously hurt. Finally
the crowd became so great that traffic
on the road Was suspended until the
police had dispersed the mob. At II
o'clock everything was quiet and the
cars were running again. The inn
preston is growing that there will be
serious trouble if the strike is not set
tled soon.

BURGLARS CAUGHT.
One of Them Gets Drunk, and
"GiveS the Job AWay.''

Three men, giving their names as
James Murphy, John Bell and Pat No
Ian, are locked up at the central police
station charged with drunkenness. At
an early hour yesterday morning the
saloon at 116 First avenue north, kept
by Eric Lind, was entered through a
rear window, and cigars and other stock
to the value of $500 were stolen.
One of the men named above be-
trayed knowledge of the affair while
in saloon and in an intoxicated con-
dltlon, and the fact was communicated
to Officers McKenna and Joe Ryan. who
arrested him. AS soon as he was ar
rested he told the names of his accomp-
pllceS, who were soon behind the bars
and gave information which led to the
recovery OF the stolen property. Bell
was employed at the saloon as porter,
and it is supposed that he planned the
burglary and left the window open so
that they could easily get in.

Philosopher Emerson,s Son.

E: W. Emerson, ithe son of Ralph
Waldo Emerson and the biographer of
his distinguished father, spoke at the
First Unitarian church yesterday MORN
ing on '.Thoreau." DIR. Emerson, for
he follows the somewhat pro-
sale calling of physician, bears
strong resemblance to his
father. But he does not give the spec
tator any idea of that joyousness of
spirit that distinguished the sage of
Concord. He looked like a man whose
whole mind is cast in a serious mold.
He resembles his father in intellectual
appearance in that he appears to be
man who looks at the serious and phil
osophical side of questions. He has
none of the light of the poet in his eve.
His lecture on Thoreau was a carefully
prepared paper OH this little read and
little understood writer, and was full of
extracts from his writings.
