Arrangements Completed for the
Benefit Performance.
The time has arrived when something
must be done without delay for allevlat
Ing the Immediate wants of the great
army of unemployed people in Mime
apolls who are forced by the general
depression in all branches of trade to
depend for the present upon the charity
OF those who are more fortunate: but
while the great majority of those inter-
ested III such affairs have been holding
meetings and discussing the best method
OF overcoming the present needs of the
poorer classes, the Central Trade unions
have gone to work and made arrange
mentS for series of four performances
OF Dion Bouclcault's powerful drama
1.-The Long Strike" at the Grand opera
house, beginning Thursday evening
next. The presentation will be by the
blue Jeans" company, which delighted
Minneapolitans at the Grand week
ago, and, as the entertainment alone
will be well worth double the amount
which is beirg charged, the opportunity
for combining pleasure and charity
should result in the house being crowd
ed at every performance.
Mayor EustiS has taken a deep inter-
est In the matter, as indeed have all the
business and professional men in the
city who realize the unfortunate posi-
ton in which SO many deserving people
have been placed, and are doing every
thing possible to make the affair brill
liant success.
The police and fremen, as well as
members of the several trade unions,
have been busy selling tickets for the
past three days and report most graf
flying success.
In regard to the distribution of the
funds it might be we'll to say that the
intention is to relieve the immediate
wants of every person whose case is
found TO be worthy, whether they be-
long to the labor unions or otherwise.

Ii the Floyds-mother and sons-were
tried today before petit jury, it is
doubtful if they would be convicted.
The contrast between the treatment
melted out to them and the kind consid-
Grafton extended to Phil Scheig, a, con-
fesSed criminal, has caused TeyuiSion
of public sentiment which would un-
questionably find expression in the ac-
ton of petit jury. But the trial will
not take place today. When it does,
sentiment will have subsidized. and the
fate of the Floyds will depend entirely
upon the evidence.
Mrs. Floyd and her sons are still In
the county jail. Their attorney. Tim
Byrnes, endeavored to secure the SIS, COO
bail for Mrs Floyd yesterday, but was
unsuccessful. 1t is not likely that any
attempt will be made 10 obtain pail for
the boys. Mrs. Floyd suffers keeniy
under the confinement She was weak
and feverish yesterday, and it was
deemed prudent to send for the county
physician. He administered quieting
prescription, which proved beneficial.
Mrs. Floyd received several visitors
during the day, among them being Mrs.
Il. B. Walker. Her sons spent the ell
tire day with her.
The FloydS will put DIP defense that
Is offensive, rather than mere denial.
They will allege, and prove if they can,
That Scheig was dishonest long before
he knew them, and that ne appropriated
his fathers money while acting as
cashier in his barber shop. The FloydS
will also claim that the money Scheig
used to give them was borrowed from
them when they were flush, and that
MIRO of
the bank she thought that Scheig was
simply paying debt to her sons. There
is good deal of talk, TOO. about fixed"
poker games in which the EloydS and
Scheig and others engaged, but there
would seem to be no proof of this. But
when the Floyds come to trial the public
Will have chance TO observe who can
tell the worst stories on the other and
to judge which is the most reliable
states evidence.
Phil Scheig remained at the lookup
all day yesterday. That is, he was not
taken out calling. He received numer-
Gus calls, however. 1t is given out that
he will be sentenced on Monday, but it
is doubtful. The feeling is becoming
almost universal that Scheig should not
have been taken to the lookup at all.
He was an indicted man when he re-
turned home, and confessed criminal
the day after. Yet he was taken back
TO the central police station, and given
cell upstairs, where he has been al
lowed to see any and all visitors in
discriminatory. Ii had wanted to commit
suicide lie could have accomplished his
object. Moreover, If he had desired to
escape, it would have been no impos-
Sible task with the aid OF some friends
to have broken through the door of his
cell into the corridor. Once there he
could have walked through the NUM-
cipal court room, which is always empty
after 5 p. m, and both doors to it I'M
locked.
Why the county authorities saw fit to
yield the body Of Scheig to the city
authorities is not automatically known,
but it was given out that Scheig would
be more accessible at the lookup to the
bank officials and others who wanted to
talk" with him.

Of the letter called Prots. Oftedal and

PUBLIC SCHOOL QUESTION
As Regarded by a Leading French
Paper OF MinDeanOIis

As Regarded by Leading French
Paper OF Minneapolis.
The Echo de rOuest, of Minnea polls.
IN its issue this week, has the following
to say editorially upon the public school
question:
The Catholics of New York are max
ing strenuous efforts to obtain part of
the public school funds for the support
of their parochial schools.
The Echo de POuest Is Catholic
paper, puDlishedi in the French language,
but is, nevertheless. thoroughly Amer
lean, advocating the equal rights of all
Sects of ProteStantS, as we'll as of Cath
OlieS, before the law.
The American people, with. good rea
son, consider the public school as the
pillar and the cornerstone of our free
government.
The Echo de POuest halls with de-
light the establishment of parochial
schools wherever they can be supported
by their respective parishes. believing
liz the training of the heart as well as of
the mind.
If the Catholics. Eutherans, Episco-
pallanS and others establish public
schools, let them be maintained by free
contribution.
Should any sect ever succeed in get
ting share of the public fund. the
other sects would be equally entitled to
the same privilege. What would then
be the condition of our public schools
the pride of the American people-and
what system of educating which can be
faVOrably compared with any system in
the world? The public schools, Access
sible to the poor as we'll as to the rich,
are blessing to this country.
The Echo de POuest, for the sake of
the kindly feeling that should exist
among the various sects and NATIONAL
tiles, sincerely hopes that any division
of the public school fund will soon be a
thing of the past. Then the A. p. A,
an organization whose object is to ex-
clude all Catholics from holding office
or public employment, will be out of
existence.

NO RED TAPE IN THE SOUP.
But 1t Does Them Just as Much
Good,

In answer to tie objections urged by
a charitable organization against fur
nishing soup to the dodgers at the cell
trail station. the mayor says:
I'VE feed hungry dog that he may
not bite somebody. Why not feed a
hungry human being that he may not
commit crime to fill his stomach? When
you send man out into the streets these
cold winter mornings without a morsel
in his stomach, cent in his pocket, an
overcoat on his back, lofty morality
stoops pretty low when 1t complains
of petty larceny. l do not wish
to be understood as justifying petty
larceny or any misdemeanor. but / do
say that when man is turned loose
without food or means to obtain it, he is
bound to get it. or its substitute whisky.
Whisky he can get without money, and
whisky breeds crime. Therefore, when
we give these unfortunate men good
breakfast, we are removing the tempta-
ton to crime, and consequently the
commission of crime. We do not claim
to have solved the entire problem of
charity, but we do think our plan has
Its merits, even though it is devoid of
