A Difference of ODiniOnS.

The Pioneer observes that Bishop
Zardetti, of st. Cloud. in his ante
lenten charge to the priests OF his
diocese, has instructed them to allow
all members of the church who are
either Odd Fellows or knights OF
Pythias, to perform their Easter du-
ties. 1t was only a few years ago
that the Catholic church was op-
posed to these fraternal Organlza-
tions, but it seems that the bishops
and heads of the church have been
investigating the principles upon
which these organizations are
founded, and find nothing contrary
to the teachings of Catholicism.
There is much to commend in both
of these societies, and anyone joining
either of them cannot fail to become a
better citizen as q consequence. Ihe
Catholic church, in removing it's op-
position to them, at once brands IT.

An article take from the Wadena

in his ante-Lenten charge to the
priests OF his diocese has instructed
them to allow all members OF the

DR.. Christie performed a very deli
cate and quite dangerous surgical
operation upon Mrs. Lucy Cannon at
Swanville yesterday. This lady has
been dectoring for many months for
dead bone of the skull but without
success, and it was found that the
only chance of saving her life was
through an operation, but many
were of the opinion that it could not
be done successfully. However, the
doctor was not afraid TO attempt it
and yesterday morning he went
down and cut out Il large piece Ol
rotten bone from the lady's forehead
and she lived through it all right
and the prospects are that she will
now recover. Frank Tufts went
down and assisted in the operation

A contemporary. tells about a
dealer who hustled the things in his
store off to an auction room because
they had been there so long he had
concluded they were unstable. "A
little later he found a line SO attract
i've that he was on the point OF buy
ing it, when he discovered that they
were his old goods, but SO at
tractively displayed as to make then
salable. The story sounds tishy, but
the moral is all right. There arr
stores in which goods are so packed
away that it is n wonder they ar
ever sold.-Wadena Pioneer.

From Friday's Daily, b. &
Little Falls was visited by fire last
night, and F. p. FarroW is the loser.
about u O'Clock Mr.. Farrow. was
awakened bN bis wife, who said she
thought the house was on fire. He
Immediately rushed ont and called
the boarders and then turned his
attention to ;: rescuing his family.
Gene Gotta, ran out on the street and
notified Officer Tourtillotte, who
Immediately turned IN an alarm
which was promptly responded to. =.
The fire started from q stove in the
rear of the. meat market directly
under Mr.. Farrow's room, and the
family made their escape In their
night clothes, and SO rapidly did it
burn that none u the hing was
saved. Raleigh Pope, and Chas.
Sylvester occupied a room in the
back part of the house and barely
escaped being suffocated. Their
trunks and clothing were afterward
taken out of the window and their
room was damaged very little by
the flames.
Gene Cota.lost all his clothes but
feels we'll satisfied that hegot out.
Mr.. Rasmussen, the butcher, prob
ably had as narrow escape as any
one. In ntrying to. get out he got
lost and ran against a stove, and
finally succeeded in getting out of a
window. He .afterward went back
and got his trunk out.
This building was built several
years ago for a meat market and
Mr.. Farrow had built additions tC
it from time to time until it was
quite a commOdious structure. A
] few months ago he fitted it up for 6
hotel and removed the market
to the north side next to Kleber Bros
bakery, the brick wall Of whicl
HORNED the north wall of the hotel
The part of the building in which
the fire started was dry and this to
& 'ther with the grease in the shol
caused it to burn quickly, and it wa
a lucky thing that the fire was dis
lowered when it was for in anOthe
minute the flames would have burs
through the floor and cut off tn
Ifamily's means of escape.

THE BRATTLEBoRo RETREAT.

AT meeting OF the trustees OF the Yer
mont Asylum held last Saturday the
| institution was rechristened, under the
authority granted by an act of the legisla-
ture of 1892, and 1t will hereafter be
known as the BrattleborO Retreat Since
the state asylum at Waterbury was estab-
lished under the name of the Vermont
State Asylum there has been more or less
confusion in the matter Of correspondence.
and in several instances, owing TO the close
| similarity of names, people at distance
have been unable to determine, without
inquiry, whether their friends were in
the Vermont Asylum at Brattleboro or in
the Vermont State Asylum at Waterbury.
With view to Obviating this misunder-
standing the change has been made.
Since the state has made provision for its
patients at Waterbury the prospects are
that the Brattleboro Retreat will become
more and more distinctively private
institution, and the trustees are DESTROYS
that it should have distinctive name.
This is move in the right direction, and
in accordance with the spirit of modern
asylum practice. In the early days insti-
buttons of this kind were thought of as
little more than Ravens or asylums for the
insane without those features of humane
'hN oSiNhhihN curative bI6dbntUb WHICH
now characterize them, and hence the word
asylum came TO have harsh meaning
which does not obtain in the word retreat.
The BrattleborO Institution possesses
many features which make it in the best
sense retreat for those who are mentally
i'll. The main buildings have every modern
convenience with homelike surroundings.
including the ample and well kept grounds.
The Hillside park gives rare opportunities
for outdoor recreation, while the Summer
Retreat for women and the Cottage for
men are adjuncts, in the introduction of
which the Brattleboro Retreat was the
pioneer of this country Several other
institutions now have summer retreats, but
we believe there is no other which has
separate retreat for men.
The good work which was begun by Dr.
Rockwell and was so broadened and ex-
tended by DR.. Draper is being carried
steadily onward to greater and greater
efficiency and usefulness by DR.. Lawton
and his assistants, seconded and aided by
the liberal policy OF the trustees.

The Annual Memorial Observance.

An audience of about 1000 of our citi-
zens gathered at the opera house last Sun
day afternoon, it being the occasion of the
annual sermon to the Grand Army in con-
nection with Memorial day exercises. The
choir of the Congregational church was in
attendance. The exercises were partici-
pated in by nearly all the pastors of our
village and North Walpole. The address
was by Rev. Father Reynolds and was an
eloquent and interesting one, exciting ia
vorable comment on all sides The exer-
cises of Memorial day were carried out in
accordance with the program given last
week, not being seriously interfered with
by the rain which fell late in the day. The
procession was not so large as in former
years, and the number of people from out
of town not so large. Rev. Mr.. Fuller
toms address was attentively listened to by
a good-sized audience in the opera house.
More places of business and private resi-
dences were handsomely decorated than
usual.
