The minority report was read by the
Rev. S. j. Nicolls, D. D., OF St. Louis.
Ho said ho knew in making minority

attitude; they were not antagonizing
the claim OF power in the assembly to

following: "Wc find the appeal in or

for tho following reasons:

monding that the appeal bo entertained
and issued, prejudiCes the same by ad-
vising the assembly to do what the

STUCK ON THEIR SHAPE.
Mayor Eustis Picks Peelers Tor
the Hill Parade.

Fine form and personal appearance
were never at such premium IN the
police force as now. Mayor Eustis has
developed an enthusiasm for finely
shaped policemen that bids fair to be-
come a mania in the department. Po-
licemen with stature which Is
anything less than that OF an
Apollo Belvidere, or any other variety,
come aud 20 through the darkest
alleys and byways they can make of use
A foot or stomach that otfends in the
minutest fraction against the canons OF
art is a source not only of regret but of
acute anxiety. No policeman in the
least out OF plumb feels sure that he
may not get his walking papers because
his shape is not one that the mayor
would stop to admire on the street.
The shapes of the policemen were
thoroughly canvassed by the mayor,
Supt. Smith, Capt. Helm and Secretary
Mannlx yesterday morning. The occa-
sion was the selection of a squad OF
thirty-Uwo men to march in the Hill
celebration in st. Paul next Wednes-
day. Every physical point OF the patrol
men was carefully canvassed. The IDEA
of the mayor is that as the men go tnere
only for show, and not for service, the
show should be as imposing and pleas
ing as possible. IL want men," said the
mayor. who will fascinate the girls as
they march BY" The policemen Sc
lected will, no doubt, do so. The squad
will leave Minneapolis Wednesday at
1870 p. M, and the march will begin i'll
/ st. Paul at $3.50.
The mayors interest in the working
and appearance Of the police force
shows no abatement. Every evening,
moonshine or rain, he drives about
the city taking note OF things.
His eye is especially upon the
saloons and other resorts that come
within police supervision. He also
finds much amusement and instruction
In blowing the police whistle and watch
ing for the effect this may have upon
the patrolmen as they hurry or lag III
answering it. During the past week
Mr.. Eustis visited every police precinct
in the city.
The time for issuing new saloon
licenses Is now near at hand and he has
| plan keeping track of the saloon mat
tiers connected with the license. This
is by means of a "Saloon Docket" sort
of companion piece to the Saloon Jour-
nal. On this docket will noted down
in brief form matters bearing on the
duration of the license, the standing or
the saloon, and all such information as
will enable the mayor to form rapid
and correct opinion whenever ques-
ion of revoking license may come up

SHUTTER ON MORALITY.
Worship of Mere Outward Forms
Is Condemned.

Rev. DIR. Shutter, of the Church of the
Redeemer, last evening spoke on the
subject of Morality and the Beyond"
basing his remarks on the parable of the
rich young man who had been moral
from his youth up. and who had said to
Jesus: What lacketh yet?"
In commencing. Dr.. Shutter called at
tentlon to an oil painting of the parable
In which the artist represented Jesus
and the young man in conversation. In
the background there was stately edi-
flee with an open window, through
which could be seen humble abode.
The Master was represented as pointing
to the open window as if to say that
through it lay the way to eternal life.
He then said: Jesus never treated
two cases alike; He always provided a
remedy for the case in point. In the
case of the scribe it was ambition, In
that Of the young man lndecsion, shesi-
fancy, selfishness. No rule should be
seltshly or slavishly followed. The
young man had not found God because
he had neglected the pathway of love
and benevolence.
A picture was drawn of the uses of
morality as contrasted with the per-
saying that some people would not
only depreciate morality, but
they would demonetize it, and
Ill this connection scathing
rebuke was given the worship that is
tied up in the outward forms, creeds,
ceremonies and rituals of religion. 1t
was the latter that discouraged all
moral effort, he held, and which caused
the upright man, when told his life was
not good in the sight of God, to 60
adrift.
Ii have to choose between atheism
and an infinite tyrant in heaven, write
me down an atheist, rather than to
submit to an eternal despotism. If
| have to choose between annihila
ton and an endless torrent of fire,
then better the absolute silence
Of inanimate dust, rather than an i'm
mortality of devouring flames. When
the right note is struck, the soul. like
the violin, gives forth glorious re-
Spouse. 1t is the note of love that thrills
the heart, and whose music vibrates
with the divine melody of God.
