Why do some church members
take such little interest in the
work of their own church? Because
they have but little invested in
it, and therefore cannot expect
large dividcns.

Mr.. and Mrs. w. A. Butler enter
tanned at their pleasant home on
Broadway Monday evening. About
twenty-five guests were present and
highly enjoyed the occasion. Each
guest represented the title OF some
we'll known book and each one was
supposed to guess what book was
represented. The one guessing the
greatest number was to receive u
prize. 1t was a unique entertain
ment and the guests were several
hours racking their brains to think
of the titles of the books represented
by their neighbours. The time passed
quickly in this manner and it seemed
only short time until the cards
were taken up and refreshments
were served. After refreshments the
result was announced and Miss Amy
Mas:en proved to be the most sue
cessful lady guesser and received al
a reward u handsome book entitled
"Home Sweet Home" Mr.. Robert
Heron was presented book Ell
titled "The Bells' for being the most
guesser among the gentle
men. After the prizes were awarded
the young people enjoyed an en-
promptu dance for Il few moments
before their departure.

THE LEGISLATURE 4
New Capitol Bill Makes Its APP
pearance In Both
Branches.
APPROPRIATION ASKED FOR.
The House Gets Down to Work
in Committee of the
Whole.

ST.. PAUL, Jan. 3O.-The new capitol
bill was introduced in house and senate
during the forenoon. The bill does not
make any changes over the bill of two
years ago, but does arrange matters so
that there can be some progress in the
work of construction during the next
two years. The first section of the bill
is as follows:
''There shall also be transferred i'm
mediately from the general fund to the
credit of said board of state capitol COM
missioners the sum of $250,000 for the
erection Of the said new capitol build
ing; provided, however, that said sum
shall become and be a part of said sum
of $4,000, 900, and nothing in this act
contained shall be construed to increase
the limit of cost of said new capitol and
the site thereof beyond the sum of
$2,ooo,ooo."
Other amendments provide for COM
petitive contest for selecting plans; and
many rules are laid down for the guild
ance of the architects.

DR.. Parkhnrst to WOlnen.

DR.. Parkhurst starts out as a
writer for women in the February
Ladies' Home Journal in u way
which promises to be most interest
ing. His vigorous style is in his
work, and his direct way Of putting
truths leaves no room for misinter-
preting his ideas about women. For
his first article he coins new word
"Andromaniacs," by which he des-
ignates the type of women who
wants to be mannish and apes the
ways of men. That he Ia not in
sympathy with them is evident, and
his promise of discussing the women
who want to vote, who want to
preach and who desire to be in bust
ness in his future journal articles
gives further evidence of his deep in
terest in humanity. While DR.. Park
hurst is the feature of this number
of the journal. Reginald de Koven,
the composer of "Robin HOod.' is
prominent with his new song,
"ROses of Love-" of which the full
music is given. Arthur Warren is
likewise excellent in an interesting
and beautifully illustrated article on
Queen Marguerite, of Italy, which
shows this favOrite Queen at close
range in her home life. John Kend-
rick Bangs is very funny in his
"Paradise Club.' while another
humOrist, Robert j. Burdette, de-
parts from the humorous and tells
the tender love story OF his wife and
himself in 1.-THE Woman Who Most
Influenced Me-" Mr.. HOwells takes
up lola and the French school in
his literary autobiography, and
Thomas a'RecKet is exceedingly
practical and helpful in his article on
"The Correct Way to Play a Piano
The famous and funny brownies
are on Il lark on a raft this time. A
bea u tiful page of Empire embroidery
is given, and will be timely in this
wave of Napoleonic interest. The
cover of the journal this month is
also Empire, showing striking
"girl of the Directoire." by Alice Bar
Der Stephens, and altogether it is /,
number which does credit even to
The Ladies' Home journal, and is
certainly worth its nominal price OF
ten cents.

Tuesday night Conductor Allen
went west on freight No. IS. No. So
was following him and when near
Lincoln he got off his train to put n
torpedo ON the track to let the train
men of 50 know that IS was only a
short distance ahead. BY the time
the torpedo was fixed his train was
out of sight and he had to catch No.
30 when it came along. 1t was re-
ported here by a man from Rainfall
that he had fallen from his train and
was injured. Fortunately such was
not the case.
The way the railroad boys tell
1T No. SO, east bound, had orders to
look out for "Pa". but when he saw
the train he hid behind a tree and
waited for the west bound train.
The crew OF SO saw nothing OF him
and this probably gave rise to tn"
story that he had been hurt. The
railroad boys will make it lively for
him for some time.
