PROFESSIONAL BEGGARs.
They Infest the Flour City and
Insult Its Citizens.

The beggars still keep coming to
town, and the police have no end of
trouble in keeping them from actually
assaulting people on the streets. The
Associated Charities is doing all in its
power to keep the streets free from the
pests, but the beggars are too many for
one institution. 1t is no unusual thing
for pedestrian to be accOSted by beg
CARS several times within block, and
be ms ulted by the importuning fellows
for not giving everything his pocket
book contains. The great majority of
these beggars are not deserving of help,
for in most cases they are worthless
vagabonds, who make their living by
preying upon the sym pathies of kind
hearted people. The Humane society
has endeavored in various ways to put a
stop to the begging by the inmates of
BoWker Home for the Friendless, but so
far without success.
Patrolman Jack Maloney last night
arrested two beggarS, able-bodied men,
who were accosting every passer-by on
lower HenHepin avenue. He locked
them up at the central station, where
they gave the names of Sam Appleton
and Frank Clark. 1t was stated by an
officer at the station that Appleton was
st. Paul, who fell from grace through
wine and women and lost all of his
money and property, after which he be-
gan the life of a tramp. Two girls, Ma
ME Arnold and Mamie Haley, were
also arrested, at the instance of Secre-
tary Holt, of the Associated Charities,
and placed i'll cell at the central sta
ton. They are thirteen years of age.
The former has been living with an
aunt at the corner of Fourth street and
Second avenue south, and Mamie Haley
with relatives on Western avenue. They
were caught begging On the streets and

Rock Island Strike.

CHICAGO, Dec. 11.-General Manager
st. John said tonight: 1--WE know of no
strike at present. Ali the places made
vacant by operators leaving our employ
have been filled and everything is work
ing as usual. The bulletin stating that
the strike was over and the company
had acceded to the demands of the
men was not sent out by any
officials of the road" A dispatch from
Terre Haute, Ind, says that Grand
Master Sargent, OF the Brotherhood Of
Locomotive Firemen. leaves tonight for
Chicago to confer with Chief Ramsey.
Mr. Sargent denies that the firemen will
strike out of sympathy for the Ieleg-
raphers, as the tiremen have no griev-
ance, and could not break their agree
ment with the railroad.
HORTON, Kali, Dec ia new and
strike of the Rock Island operatives,
and the outcome of it will be watched
with great interest. The farmers in
this county have joined with the strik-
ing operators. At PoWhattan the oper-
ator left his key this morning. Seeing
that several loads of cattle we're to be
shipped, he agreed to help them load
the cattle and bill them, explaining
to the farmers his side Ct the
story of the strike. The farmefs said
they would stand by him and drove
their cattle to the Missouri station,
seven miles away, and shipped them
over that road. At present the station
is locked up and it is impossible for the
farmers to get their coal and supplies.
and it remains to be seen who can hold
out the longer, the farmers OF the COM
pany. Those who are in the movement
are the leaders of the POpulSts. and
their conduct is being criticised by the
prominent farmers of the country.

ADJUSTMENTS.

Katie Emmett is paying her annual
sit to Minneapolis this week at the
BijOu. Her play this season is "Killar-
ney," an Irish comedy-drama by Con
L. Murphy. Beautiful scenery, repre-
Senting the exquisite landscape around
Lake Killarney, is the dominant feature
of the production. Neither the material
of the play nor the situations are in
anyway striking OF novel. The author
has exhibited some talent III pOrtraying
the Irish character. and in the moder-
ately witty lines placed in their mouths.
The play attempts TO tell, in rather a
happy way, an unnatural story of love
and romance, but is not sufficiently
great to appeal strongly to an audience.
Miss Emmett herself sings fairly well,
and dances just ordinarily; but she is
q cOmely woman and popular. George
c. Boniface. Frazer Coulter, Harry
Leighton, Robert McNair and Thaddeus
Shine are good actors without great op
portunities. The others are equal to
their parts.
Tonight, at the Grand Opera House,
the new war drama Across the PotO-
mac" will be given its first production
in this city. Company B, NJ. S. g., will
appear in the battle scene.
The boxes and loges for the Glee CLUB
concert at the Lyceum Wednesday, Dec.

SATOLLI RECALLED.
The Pope Said to Be Displeased
With His Emissary.

New YORK, Dec. 11.-Rumors have
reached this city, the World will say
tomorrow, that Mgr. Satolli has been
recalled by the pope because of his
recent address on the school question.
The text of the document or the
publishing of it, one or the other or
both, it is said, displeased Leo. If this
be true, it somewhat complexities mat
ters. What Mgr. Satolli said on the
school question was in accordance with
the powers impaired to him and which
he exercised at the archbishops' council
i'm this city in regard to the
school question. 1t is quite possible
however, in making a long address on
the subject, which would find its way
into print, that Mgr. Satoll has really
offended the pope, and is therefore
that Pope Leo XIII. is a diplomat
and would keenly feel any jeopardiZing.
undiplomatic move in matter as tick
lish as the school question in Amer
lea. Whatever Mgr. Satolli may have
been authorized TO say to the arch
bishops in a session which was of a
utmost privacy was one thing; but to
exploit the whole matter in public is
another Archbishop Satolli is very
near to the reigning pontiff, and the
fact of his being charged with such
extraordinary authority as that with
which he was vested by the
pope for this American mission
is proof of this. His return to Europe
at this time would be quite different
thing from DR.. O'ConnelPs going back.
DR.. O'Connell came here with the in
tention of returning about the time sci

DONE AT A DOG FIGHT.
Bloody Battle in Ohio Resulting
in Loss of Life.


HAMILTON, o., Dec. 11.-Grant Fox,
of this city, was shot and killed at Port
Union, a small village three miles south
of this city, this morning, There was a
a desperate fight. Fox was murdered,
and several men were seriously
wounded. A dog fight had taken
place in house near Port Union
and was followed by cock fight. The
sport lasted until this morning at 10
o'clock. Fox was running bar. The
crowd had INDUCED too freely in
liuuor, and fell to quarreling over
the merits of the dogs. The
Hamilton contingent, having lost
heavily on the battle, was angry
and wanted an excuse to fight. Grant
Fox, the bartender, said something
which reflected on the courage OF one OF
the dogs, and in all instant the report or
a revolver was heard, and he fell be-
hind the counter dead. The firing was
the signal for the beginning of gen
eral fight, in which revOlvers, knives,
hatchets and stones were brought
into use Bob Rolhinger, father-ln-
law of Fox, endeayored to come to the
rescue of his son after he was shot, but
was cut across the right arm until that
member was almost severed from his
body. He was knocked down and rem
dered unconscious, and may die.
James Brady, of Hamilton, was
horribly cut about the face and
body, and tonight is said to be
in dying condition. Neal Coakley, an
engineer on the Cincinnati, Hamilton d
Dayton railroad, was struck on the top
of his head by Ratchet and frightfully
cut about the face and body. His con-
dition is likewise serious. Several
more of the Hamilton party
were more or less cut and
bruised. The dog and cock fights were
under the supervision of Ryan and
Smith. Sheriff Kerbers tonight arrested
Harry Grady, saloonkeeper in this
city, on the charge Of killing Fox. Other
arrests may follow before morning.

you know that in its native state the
horse has but two gaits, the walk and
the gallop? All others, such as the trot,
pace, canter, foX-trot, lack and single
foot, are acquired and artificial. True, a
colt may be born that may pace ON the
day of Its BIRTH but you will find some
of his ancestors had been taught to
pace. | have chased and captured wild
horses in their native wilds, and know
this from observation. L never saw
wild horse trot. A queer difference. be-
tween wild horses and domesticated is
exhibited in breaking them. Now a
wild horse tries to diSmOunt his rider
by pitching and bucking, and 1t is the
him of the trainers to make him run.
"Get wild horse to running straight
ahead and he is conquered and will IN
short time become docile. But with do
nestle stock just the opposite is the
case. A tame horse does not buck as a
rule, but wants to run. Let him run and
he is ruined. The philosophy of the
business is plain. The idea in both
case is to bend the will of the horse to
the riders desire. The wild horse runs
straight ahead because he is cowed and
aSraid of his rider, and has deSpaired of
throwing him. The tame horse runs be-
cause he has no fear of the rider and
imagines he is escaping. He is made to
go slow quietly only through fear and
respect. Thus, you see, the wild horse
runs to slavery. while the tame horse
runs to freedom"

THE "STILL ALARM"
Fireman Thomas Jefferson Laid
to Rest in Lakewood.

to Rest in Lakewood.
tillerman of Hook and Ladder Company
No. 3, who met his death i'll such sad
manner Thursday, were laid away yes
terday afternoon in their last resting
place at Lakewood cemetery. The re-
mains lay in state at No. 5 engine house
from O'clock in the morning until the
services were concluded at 2 o'clock.
Hundreds of the dead mans compan-
ions came to the engine house and paid
their last respects to the dead. The
place was literally filled with flowers,
tributes from the various companies.
The casket was buried under wreaths
and pillows of roses, and the prosaic
old engine Eouse resembled more a
garden of sweetly smelling flowers than
a public Institution. An OdOr of dying
lilies and tube roses filled the atmos
phere.
The boys from headquarters sent a
beautiful harp of flowers; No. 8 engine
house presented pillow; No. 10 a
wreath; No. 5 pillow, and the hook
and ladder company, of which Jefferson
had been member, presented broken
wheel, emblematic of the manner in
which he came to his death.
Rev. William Wilkinson officiated, and
preached a touching sermon. AT the
close of the exercises procession was
formed, and the remains were escorted
to the grave. There were seventy-five
tiremen Oh foot. headed by Chief Runge
and his assistants. Then followed a
line of twenty-five carriages. A band
of music played the dead march. and
aided IN rendering the occasion more
impressive. When the procession
reached the corner of Franklin and
Portland avenues the marching firemen
withdrew from the line and went back
to their various stations to be ready for
duty again. The remainder Of the pro-
cession proceeded to Lakewood, where
the casket was lowered into the freshly
dug grave with the usual impressive
Episcopalian ceremonies.

FRENCH ON sATOLLI.
He Considers the Charge of God
less Schools Legitimate.

Rev. ii. II. French. at Wesley M. E.
church last night, gave prelude on
1.-The School Question:" called forth by
the recently published address of Mgr.
Satolli. Rev. French said:
81 haye kept clear of this question,
which has been before the people for
some time, for do not share the opn-
ion of those who think that we are in
danger from the Roman Catholic church.
This church is leading ChristendOm in
applied Christianity today, is reaching
down to the masses and doing them good.
| would not destroy it if L could. The
powers of assimilation of the republic
too great to cause any thought of danger
arising from the heterogeneous popula-
ton. The address of MI Satolli en-
phatically indo1SeS the Faribault plan,
and places Archbishop Ireland on top.
The position of the Catholic church on
the school question has radically
changed since the beginning of the
discussion.
Mr.. French quoted from letters
and speeches Of the archbishops in
the seventies to prove his position.
He also quoted from MonSignor Sato1li's
address, and said that the outcome was
that the children could go to the public
schools, and at the same time be taught
matters of religion outside of school.
The protest against goddess schools was
legitimate. If the children belong to
the state, it is to her interest that her
wards should be educated along the
lines of religion and morals, and some
unsectarian basis Oh which all men can
agree ought to be introduced into the
schools for religious training.

THE REINACH SCANDAL.
Disgraceful Scenes About the
Dead Mans Grave.

LONDON, Dec 1.-THE Times Paris
correspondent says: "The Reinach
scandal is worry of the middle ages.
The parliament, the magistracy and the
press, all are crying for the corpse. Only
the brush of a Call or Holbein could
do Justice to the scene presented at the
cemetery. When the autopsy was per-
formed and there was an unseemly
scramble between the doctors and the
reporters to reach the grave, the doctors
were victorious. They whitened the
windows of the room in which the au-
topsy was performed, so that nothing
was visible from the outside.
The Paris correspondent OF the News
says that when the autopsy was per-
formed, all newspaper representatives
were excluded from the cemetery, but
were allowed to watch from barn loft
overlooking the grave. 1t will be i'm
possible for three weeks to say whether
or not Baron Reinach died of aconlte
poisoning. The suspicion that he
did die of aconite poisoning is
due to the fact that partly
emptied phlal of aconite was found
near his bed. 1t is alleged that, on find
ing it impossible to avert the Panama
scandal, the baron had stormy scene
with a certain relative with whom he
had trusted to prevent the canal revela
tons, and it is possible that on retiring
to his room he may have in tit OF deS-
peration taken the poison.

she has been in the wildS of the forest.
She sat by the fire nearly an hour be-
fore she would answer any questions,

in all religious communions who have
profound respect for backing and
starch, who look upon the church as
social club or joint stock company,
out of which they expect to
the minister as chief steward of
look upon their church as a Joint part
nership, and on the minister Gas 'hired
by the year to run it, ANY minister
who for an instant gives place to such
spirit or view has trouble in store
above little. Do what he may, he will
never suit long such people. If he
pipe. they will not dance; if he mourn,
they will not lament. So his days will
be full of care and his nights of unrest.
1t will be found rule that those who
do least to adorn, sustain and
help all church work are those who
are best satisfied with the ministry they
have When the churches cease to ask
for a man who will draw who can i'll
f1uence money, who is pre-eminentlY
gentleman and worldly wise, and ask for
a minister who will reflect the life of
Christ, who will feed the church of
God, who will seek the fallen and try
by faith and by help to restore them,
himself what are the results of knowing
Christ; when the church will set wor-
ship above all SenSationalism and
cheap devices to catch the simple,
we shall have better state of things.
In regard to the pay of the ministry, the
man who looks for riches, as pastor,
has taken sadly mistaken view of his
calling, and will fail always, and de-
serves so to do. On the other hand,
when it is remembered that every con-
gregation and the public expect the
minister to be up to the best knowledge
in learning, and before the age in good
ness and piety, when he is expected to
be ready, at an lnStantS no.
tice, to visit the sick, no mat
ter how infectious the disease, and to
bury the dead, to be ready always, and
to help every good cause, and when it
is remembered what power for the
elevation of the people the ministry is,
it may justly be said that. as whole,
it deserves larger remuneration than
is given to it. In this city good men,
we'll learned in the Scriptures and in
the liberal arts are as hard at work as
men can be from morn till night, and
who do as good work in its way as can
be done, for salaries of from six,
seven and eight hundred dollars
year. And from 1000 to 81 200 is con-
sidered good remuneration. This would
not be so bad, but people set up
standard of living which cannot be
maintained Oh the money paid. When
the clergy assert their own manhood
and stand upon it. when they are fear
less and honest, when they will not let
some mossback theologian, of his
own Interpretation, impose bonds upon
them which are intolerable. When they
stand for progress, growing light and
power, they will be free from
many of the limits which now
cramp them-yes, and puzzle them.
The rich men and the faithful should
come again to the 1.-THE, and give as God
has proSpered them. Then will the
ministry receive the support it should
have in the way God designed, and new
power will coTe as the ministry be-
comes glory and joy forever"
