PRACTICAL CHARITY.
AS Outlined, Last Night, at West

AS Outlined, Last Night, at West
minister Church.
The Presbyterian ministers are evil
IDENTIFY in favor of practical charity of
the kind that begins at home, as was
evidenced by the earnest enthusiasm
that was shown at the conference of
deacons held last night, at Westminster
church.
The conference was addressed by
Prof. Mclean. of the university, who
held that the first duty of the deacons
is to attend to the charity work of the
church where large field existed, aside
from the mere giving of aims.
The real charity, he held. consisted in
the furnishing of employment to the
deserving poor, and each church should
constitute itself an employment bureau
to look after the needs of those In it's
midst,
He advocated closer connection be-
tween the several branches of church
work, saying it is time enough to look
after the work of outside charities
when the church takes care of its own
poor.
A lengthy discussion ensued, it be-
ing decided to proceed with the work
on the principles outlined by Prof. Nc
Lean, whose views were regarded as
eminently sound

A QUEER oUARTETTE.
Three Elderly Women and a
Young Man Out Shopiifting.

Three Elderly Women and
Young Man Out Shopiifting.
A queer shoplifting combination was
captured on the East side yesterday aft
ernoon. 1t consisted of two old women,
past three score,-one woman consider
ably younger, and youth of twenty or
Whereabouts, who acted as the '.stall'
for his female companions. The quar-
tette went from store to store On Gen.
trail avenue, remained inside little
while, and soon emerged. Officer Hur-
ley, of the Second precinct. noticed the
party, and observed that they were
shopping with great dispatch, in
asmuch as their stock of goods
grew rapidly after each visit.
They carried satchels and wore loose
garments and shawls, under which they
concealed the goods. The officer fol-
lowed them, and after they left Craig'S
way of the Crown Iron works, on the
corner of Second avenue southeast aud
Main street There they busted them
selves dividing up their plumber, which
consisted of handkerchiefS, neckties,
stockings, shoes and other small ap-
parel and notions. AS they sorted over
the stuff they laughed and talked and
gave every evidence OF being in the
highest spirits.
At this juncture Officer Hurley turned
their comedy into melodrama by swoop-
ing down on the quartette and gather
ing them i'll. They protested their in
nocence, but the officer arrested all but
the youngest Of the three women, who
is about thirty-eight years old. She
said she had six children a. home de-
pendent upon her, and the officer let
her go. The other three he marched to
the nearest telephone and called the
wagon. On the way one of the old
women dropped some of the bundles,
but the officer detected her.
AT the central station the officers ex-
perienced the greatest difficulty In get
ting the shoplifters to tell their names.
The young man said that one of the old
women was his mother, and the other
his mothers sister, and the third one,
whom the officer released, he claimed as
his sister. He gave the name of D. f.
Ingram, and said that he lived at Hinck-
ley with his mother and aunt.
The women told a different story.
The mother of the young man gave the
name OF Mrs. Eliza Gray, and the aunt
answered to the name of Mrs. Catherine
Gray. Both claimed to have married
brothers. Eliza Gray, who claims to
live In Kinckley, said that her daugh1
ter's name was Emma GIynn. and that
she lived In Southeast Minneapolis.
Mrs. Catherine Gray said that she had
for the last few months lived at SIG
Twenty-eighth street southeast. Both
of the women were clad in shabby old
garments and shawls. Sitting side by
side, on bench in the woman's corri-
dor of the lookup, the gray-haired
women presented a forlorn and pitifuI
spectacle. They and the young man
will be arraigned in the police court
this morning on the charge of petty lar

CHURCH VS.. SEMINARY.
The Augsburg Seminary Case
Still on Trial

SLIlt Oh 4Eidls
The trial of the Augsburg seminary
case is still in progress before Judge
Smith and a jury. The day was occu-
pied in hearing testimony for the de-
Tense, and 1t is believed that all the evil
dence will be in by noon today. The
testimony i'll behalf of the seminary is
that that Institution was the corpora
ton of the church, and that the church
had made written demand upon the
seminary to turn over the publishing
house, and this was claimed to be proof
of possession by Augsburg seminary.
The principal witness examined yester-
day was Prof. Sven Oftedal, who proved
to have an excellent memory regarding
the, history of the church, the seminary
and the publishing house. Prof. Ofte-
dahl testified that the Augsburg COM
mittee was created for the purpose of
assisting him in the work, and not for
the purpose especially of being the will
Of the conferences, and up to the time
of the union the church never had any
command over the disposition of Augs-
burg funds.
