church on "The Foundations of
Faith" it being one of series which
he is giving Sunday evenings. The
announcement Saturday that he
would speak with special reference to
the Ingersoll lecture served to pack
the church, and every square inch of
room was taken. Mr.. Beattie took up
five or six of the points touched upon
by Mr.. Ingersoll, and showed the in
constituencies of the latter in his lee
ture itself, and the misstatements of
facts. He said that ridicule was not
argument, but complimented Mr.. In
gersoll on his closing remarks, saying
that they were what any Christian
would endorse, but were not the
logical outcome of the lecturers
premises, which were destructive in
their effect The trouble with the
people who take stock in Ingersoll is
that they have false view of what
inspiration is. 1t is not mechanical
inspiration that is meant.
Among the inaccuracies of niger
soils lecture which Mr.. Beattie noted
were the portions referring to the
wealth of David and the increase of
the population of the children Of Is
rael. He held that the latter was
entirely within the range of prob
ability, as families during the last
few generations had been known to
increase at the rate at which the
Israelites must have.
Inregard to the creation, Mr.. Beat
tie quoted at length from Hakel, the
noted German scientist, to the effect
that the Mosaic account of the crea-
tion was strictly in accordance with
the laws of science. Hakel was of
Ingersoll's school of scientists.
AS indicating that the bible is not
a very dead book, Mr.. Beattie said
that the number of volumes in 1900
was 10000, 900, in thirty languages.
In 1890, it had increased to 3O0,OOO,OOO
in three hundred languages.

AWARDS FOR MINNESOTA
WOMEN.

We learn from Mrs. H. f. Brown,
one of the Minnesota commission now
at the Cotton State Exposition, that
Minnesota has received thirteen
awards in the Womans deDartment,
with the art gallery yet to hear from.
Two of these medals are silver and
the balance are bronze. There are
five degrees of excellence under which
awards are given, viz:
1st. Gold medals.
End. Silver medals.
3rd. Bronze medals.
4th. Diploma.
5th. Honorable mention.
1t will therefore be seen that this
state stood well with the jurors. We
submita list of the fortunateprize win
ners: Mrs. e. H. Center, for leather
work; Miss Fjelde, for work in Min
nesota state flag; Mrs. r. E. Tice, for
china painting, and second medal
for the same; Mrs. Brand, two medals
for lace; Miss Emma Roberts, paint
ing of Minnesota wild flowers: Miss
Wales, decorative art exhibit, Mrs. l..

chickens; Miss Adeline Gates, for

NEW MILITARY COMPANY.
A Successor to Co. F Now Nearly
Organized.

Ever since Co. f was mustered out
of the service, some of the members
have been anxious to organize new
company to become part OF the ma
tional guard of the state. No definite
steps TO this end were taken until
Mr.. Heggerness, of the Model, took
hold of the matter, and he now has a
company almost organized. Forty
five young men have signed the roll,
and while only three more are neces-
sary to reach the minimum limit,
Mr.. Haggerness expects that the
company will start with member
ship of seventy-five. The officers will
not be elected until the recruiting of
members has been completed, but
there is an understanding that Capt.
w. L. Comstock is to be asked to take
his old position of commander of the
company, which he so acceptably fill
ed for several years, and there is rea-
son to believe that he will accept it.
liz Will uOU OdhO OiLON NhANsS -
good, live company is assured, but as
care has been taken to leave out the
undesirable members of the former Or
ganization, and to secure some excel
lent new blood, such company is
assured. The state authorities have
already been communicated with.
The name of Co. f has been given
to another company, but the new COM
pany expects to get into the Second
regiment, and its name will probably
be Co. X, being the tenth company in
the regiment. There is no reason
why Mankato should not be repre-
sented in the state militia with an
active and prosperous organization,
and a school for military instruction
established in MankatO which shall
foster the military spirit among
young men.

DORNBERG SUIT WITHDRAWN.
J. S. Cooper & Co. Reach Settlement
With Him Out of Court.

The suit of Dr. Dornberg against
]. S. Cooper & Co., to recover some
thing over $4,000 damages for injur-
les received in a runaway and smash
up last summer, has been amicably
adjusted and will not go on the calen-
dar of the district court. Cooper &
Co. did not concede all the facts al
legged in the complaint, but that the
trouble and expense Of a suit might
not be incurred, consented to COM
promise the matter. 1t is understood
that the amount paid was about 5000.
DR.. Dornberg states that he would
not go through the experience of his
accident again for $1,000, but he was
willing to meet Cooper & Co. in spirit
of fairness.
Two lessons should be drawn from
this accident and its outcome. First,
the Salvation Army should be more
careful when passing teams. Second,
owners of teams should see to it that
they are hitched when left in front Of
stores. Had both or either of these
precautions been taken, it is likely
that the accident, with DR.. Dornbergs
consequent suffering, would not have
occurred.

The New Orleans Picayune says that teacher, ill explaining to her pupils the difference bteween civilized and un- civilized races, insisted upon threo things as requisite for civilization food, clothing and shelter.
 The next day she brought the subject up again by way of review.
 "What are the three things necessary to civilized man?" ske asked. Several of the children remembere food and clothing, but the third requi- site seemed to have escaped their recol- lection entirely. Finally, after the ques- tion had been repeated two or three times, ono little fellow lifted his hand and said:.

No prima donna was ever more de- .lightfully oapricious, moro full of mis- chief than the famous Mime. Malibran.

Evidently the lady did not think there was anything serious in the circumstance, for not long afterward, when in "Somnambula" she was on her knees to Templeton as Elvino, she succeeded i'll making the tenor scream with suppressed laughter when he should have been singing by tickling him vigorously under the arms. -Cornhill Magazine.
