Between the word which and the
words ''is commended in the exhorta-
ton, there is inserted: SIS an honorable
estate, instituted of God in the time OF
mans innocency, signifying unto us the
mystical union that is betwixt Christ ana
His Church; which holy estate Christ
adorned and beautified with His pres
ence and first miracle that He wrought
in Cana of Galilee.'
An important change is made in the
form of ordaining priests and consecrat-
ing bishops. The old form begins the
communion with the simple injunction.
Take thou authority to preach the
VOID of God, etc. The new form fol-
lows this with the reading of the Nicene
creed. Other changes of minor impor-
lance are made.

THE CONTEST IN THE CATHOLIC
CHURCH.

At the bottom of the bitter contest
now raging between the prelates of the
Catholic church i'll this country is the
school question. Archbishop Corrigan
of New York, is the leader of the wing
that Processes to believe that the Ameri-
can school system is an abomination
which Catholics cannot touch without
being defiled. His attitude has always
been one OF uncompromising hostility to
that institution, and apparently the
great majority of the American clergy
has been in sympathy with lis view

Some 100000 of the money spent

this country, and there is quite natural
curiosity to know where it went.

The proposal which is made in some
quarters to throw overheard the man
whom the Democrats have nominated
for member of the Board of Assessors
and let the legislature select without re-
gard to the caucus action of Demo
cratic members seems to be unwise,
unless the caucus nominee is shown
to be an unfit and incompetent person.
Undoubtedly the intent of the law in
providing that one member of the board
should be a Democrat was to allow the
Democrats to select one member of it.
This the Democrats have done, and their
choice should be respected, unless, as
we have said, they have selected an in
competent and unfit man. While it would
be a compliance with the letter of the
law if the legislature should choose a
Democrat, who was not the nominee
Of the Democratic caucus. it would
not, it seems to lis, be a compli-
ance with the spirit. Fair play is good
rule in politics as in everything else, and
pays best in the long run.

We see no objection to the proposal of
the Secretary of State to amend the ballot
law so as to permit the placing of de-
vice at the head of each column OF
party candidates and square under
it in which the voter may mark his
cross, the cross to be construed as vote
for the whole ticket beneath it. The
effect of this. arrangement will be to en-
able the voter to more readily identify
the list of names that he wishes to vote
for and more easily indicate his choice.
Nothing which is vital to the system will
be affected by the change. Another
amendment should be offered, however,
looking to different arrangement of the
booths in which the voter marks his bal
lot. In. several wards in this city they
were SO arranged that it was easy to see
what the voter was doing. This ought
not to be. The secrecy of the ballot is
of vital Importance, and if this is to be
thrown away the whole system might as
well go.

HE WON HIS BRIDE.
Romantic Sequel to u Summer
1dyll at White
Bear.
E1opement and Marriage of MFR.
Garrett and Miss
Keller.

Luther D. Garrett. the young insur-
ance man of this city, mas won bride,
and will soon bring to st. Paul fair
and attractive addition to youthful SO.
ciety. 1t IS a romantic case, and again
illustrates the old truIsm that Love
laughs at locksmiths," P" as we'll as at irate
papas. A year ago one Of the lovelleSt
of the visitors at White Bear was Miss
Maude Keller, of Leavenwor th, young
lady of great vivacity, faultlesS complex
ion, light auburn hair and dark-brown
eyes. Young Garrett spent the sum-
mer at the lake amt met this fair prod
uct of Kansas, and mutual attachment
was the result, but there was no formal
engagement. In the winter Miss Keller
visited relatives on the mill. and during
her stay became finally betroIhed to Mr..
Garrett. In midwinter she fell sick
with pneumonia, and during a
long illness, in which death how
cred over her for weeks. the
young lover was the picture Of anxious
devotion. Youth and health triumphed,
and Miss Keller recovered and was re-
stored to the arms of her parents, who
had been summoned to her bedside.
Finally she returned to Leavenworth,
and now his friends may congratulate
Mr.. Garrett upon the possession of a
lovely and accomplished bride. The story
is told in the following telegram from
LeavenWorth last night:
LEAvENWORTH, Kan, May 20.-Miss
Maud Keller, daughter of eX-Sheriff A.
3. Keller, and we'll known in Kansas
City society, eloped with l.. ID. Garrett,
a young insurance man of st. Paul.
Mimi. whom she met several months
ago while visiting her sister in st.
Paul. The girls parents strenuously
opposed the match, and yesterday
morning, Mr.. Keller declared that if
she did not discard Garrett he would
next week place her in nunnery.
Garrett arrived soon afterwards. A
marriage license was secured at $3.50
O'Clock, and the young couple drove to
the home of Rev. Claude Kelly, who
quietly tied the knot. Then they drove
to Fort Leavenworth and caught train

WET EN- DOWN.
Energetic Kicking Indulged in
Because of Failure to Lay
the Dust.
City Engineer Rundlett Calls in
the Contractors, Who Promise
TO Do Better.

The reform members of the council
have been making, or rather endeavor-
ing to make, a great deal of capital out
of the so-called economical action they
took in the rejection of the sprinkling
bids and the readvertising for new ones.
1t was announced when the last con-
tracts were awarded that the figures
were much lower than ever before, and
the work would be done at Il very cheap
figure. The result thus Ear has shown
that while the figures were cheap the
very cheap.
Complaints by the hundreds have
been made during the last week as to
the slipshod way in which the contract
ors have been doing the sprinkling.
These complaints have come from all
sections of the city, and are certainly
Just, as any one who is obliged to be on
the streets can testify. So annoying
have been the kicks that yesterday the
city engineer called in the contractors
and read them strong lecture. he in
formed them that unless they were
ready to go to work tomorrow morning
and sprinkle all of the streets in their
respective districts in proper manner,
he would put Oh sprinkllng carts and
have the sprinkling done at their eX
pense.
The contractors claim that the doubt
as to whether Gar McCardy would
countersign the contracts had prevented
them from making arrangements for
carts until after the contracts were
finally signed. Owing to this they had
not been able to get sprinkllng carts
ready as soon as they ought to have had
them. They all promised to have a
sufficient number of wagons ready on
Monday to do the work properly.
Should there be any failure on the part
of the contractors tomorrow the work
will be done by the city engineer, aud
the expense deducted from the bills of
the contractors.
A gentleman who has had considera-
BILE experience in street sprinkllng
business said yesterday that there was
no money i'll the work at the figures put
in by the men who were awarded the
contracts, and the only way the con-
tractors could play even was to slight
the work, just as was being done at the
present time.

THE MILK WAS GOOD,
But DIR. Hewitt VIII Examine 1t

But DIR. Hewitt VIII Examine 1t
for Disease Germs.
The health commissioner yesterday
received the report of C.. n. Eaton, the
chemist who was given the sample of
milk sold in portion of the Sixth ward
to analyze. The health commissioner
was of the opinion that that the spread
of the scarlet fever epidemic i'll certain
localities of the Sixth ward might have
been occasioned by the milk used i'll the
families. where the cases were reported.
In order to be satisfied on this point
samples of the milk used in the locality
were submitted to G. n. Eaton for
chemical analysis, and to DR.. Hewitt, of
the state board of health for bacterioiog-
ical examination.
The report of the chemist in official
language is as follows: Specific grav-
ity, 1.050; milk solids, 1907; not fat,
casein, etc., $50; water, S6.93; water
added, none. The remarks of the
chemist following this array of figures
are to the effect that the milk examined
was normal, and consequently all right
from a chemical standpoint. The result
of the examination now being made by
DR.. Hewitt is awaited by Dr.. Hoyt with
much interest.
~ DR.. Hoyt yesterday afternoon said
that while the milk might be all right
from a chemical standpoint,in the exam
ination of Dr.. Hewitt it might show
that there were scarlet fever germs in
the milk He could not say just when
he would get the report of DR.. HeWitt's S
examination, but expected it i'll day
or so.
For sanitary reasons DR.. Hoyt will
recommend to the council the filling of
lots containing stagnant water on Day
ton avenue, near Smelling. and on Fry
street, near Selby avenue.

Hardly had the delegates of the Inter

time to observe the beautiful effects of
morning in st. Paul, after generous en-
tertainment Friday, when busses drew
up before the Windsor hotel this morn
ing and conveyed nearly all the visitors
to the foot of Jackson street. There
they embarked Oh the steamer George
Hayes for Minnehaha. The Third In
fantry band accompanied the party.
The full river and the strong current
made the trip slow, but the scenery and
high spirits of the party enabled them
to forget time. AT Fort Smelling every
body disembarked and visited the old
frontier post. They gathered on the
parade ground, where many regiment
has formed for Indian wars and had
their picture taken in group. A few
moments later they were taken on their
way again up against the tide of the
Mississippi. The little steamer puffed
and splashed along between the impos-
