ELECTRICS AND DYNAMOS.
Interesting Papers Read Before tLs
Twin City Architects.

The Minnesota chapter Of the Amer
lean Institute of Architects held it's
regular monthly meeting last evening
at the Metropolitan hotel A large
number of members were present from
the Twin Cities The business session
was, as usual, preceded by a dinner.
The two papers read treated of the
architectural requirements for the ac-
commodation of electrical plants and
appliances. Morgan Brooks, of the
Minneapolis Engineering Supply COM
pany, discussed Electric Wiring in
Commercial Buildings while A. Pills
bury, also of the Flour City, spoke of
The Economic Limitations of the Dy-
namo."
Mr.. Brooks told how electric wires
can be rendered practically incapable
OF lgniting any building. Too much
wiring is done after cheap and tenn
porary fashion. Such wiring is safe
and satisfactory for time, but event
ually becomes dangerous, and costs
more for repairs than a properly ar
ranged system would have cost in the
beginning.
Mr.. Pillsbury dwelt on the fact that
lew buildings of size and Importance
were now erected without some accom-
modation for a private electrical plant
The avoidance of destructive and dis
agreeable vibration and the economy
OF space were the important objects to
be viewed when locating a dynamo
Other points of more technical char
acter were developed in both papers
and the discussion which followed.
The chapter willI meet on the first
FRIDAY OF April in)iMi@neapolis either
at the Minnesota club Or at the Guar
antee Loan restaurant.

SUIT FELL THROUGH.
Judge Willis Threw the Blacklist
Case Out of Court.


Case Out of Court.
John Wilkes suit to recover from
Cornelius Shields, superintendent Of
the Chicago-Great Western road, $685.
900 damages because the defendant had
blacklisted him, came to a sudden end
yesterday, Judge Willis directing
verdict in favor Of the defendant at
the close Of the plaintiffs testimony.
The blacklisting followed the big rail-
road strike Of June. 1894. John Wilkes,
who was then minor, and his brother,
James. were machinists in the employ
Of the company at South st. Paul. AS
soon as the strike was ordered they
went out with the other employees, and
were not reinstated after the trouble
had terminated
John applied to J. M. Robb, foreman,
to be taken back, but Robb told him he
must see Master Mechanic Lyons, be-
cause he was charged with being an
anarchist. He went to Lyons, and
Lyons gave him a letter that had been
written to him by Shields, in which 1t
was stated that John was "a danger
Gus, able and seditious agitator, and
was responsible for great deal Of the
trouble that had taken place at South
ST. Paul during the strike" and that
he should not be re-employed.
The result was that he was not re-
employed by the company. and he fall
ed to find work, with the exception Of
a brief period spent clerking at the
store Of Schuneman & Evans, until
last summer. when he went to work for
railroad company in West Virginia
at $175 q day. He worked there
several months, but Is now out of en-
ployment again.
i The defendant admitted having sent
the letter to Master Mechanic Lyons,
but denied that there was anything
malicious in the action. He had sent 1t
in the regular discharge of his duty,
having had good reason to believe that
the charges 1t contained were true,
and he felt that a man of that char
acter should not be employed by the
company. He had no personal knowl-
edge as to the truth of the charges but
Chief of Police Gibbon, Of South
st. Paul, had stated to the
general counsel of the COM
pany that John and Jim Wilkes
were dangerous men, and were respon-
sible for much Of the trouble that had
taken place during the strike, and he
thought the company should not re-
employ them.
After hearing the plaintiffs side of
the case, Judge Willis instructed the
jury to return verdict In favor Of the
defendant, for the reason that he had
not gone beyond his legal right in con-
veying to the master mechanic the in
formation he had received.
The case went to the supreme court
once before on a demurrer The order
Of the lower court overruling the de-
murrer was affirmed.

BICYCLE PATHS.
Cyclists Called Upon to Assist in the
improvements.

Cyclists Called Upon to Assist in the
improvements.
The cyclists of this city have form
ed an association called ''The st. Paul
Cycle Path Association" having for it's
main object as indicated by it's name,
the raising of funds among all those
who wheel for the purpose of building
and maintaining bicycle roads. They
hope in early spring to build a path to
Minneapolis and to White Bear lake,
and to raise money sufficient to build
to other points also. The path to be
built to Minneapolis is expected to con-
meet with the path to be built by the
Minneapolis association to Lakes Cal
houn, Harriet and Minnetonka.
AS it was believed that every one
owning a wheel would be glad to con-
tribute at least 81 toward this object,
which is less than the sum each wheel
man will save in repairs by reason
thereof, the initiation and dues for the
cyclists, ladies and gentlemen, are
most respectfully requested and urged
to at once join the association and send
this amount to either the Pioneer
Press, G o b or Dispatch. By contrib
uting in this way instead Of pure sub
scription each contributor has a voice
in saying how and upon what paths

membership is open to ladies the same
as gentlemen, as it was felt that all
riders should contribute as all would
use them. Arrangements should be
completed and contracts let immedi-
ately for the building of these roads,
and as nothing can be done until the
funds are raised, the association urg-
emily requests that the subscription be
sent in at once. All those contribut-
ing S. are made honorary members.
A paper has been started in this
city, the first issue of which will ap-
pear on Saturday next, devoted ex-
pecially bicycling, called 'The Sport
ing Critic
The association feels that every
wheelman should subscribe to it. as it
will contain matter of interest to them
all, but especially because one-third of
each subscription received from ST.
Paul is donated by the paper to the
association to aid in building these
paths.
The Grand opera house has kindly
consented to give the association a
raising money to further this same
worthy object, which proposition the
association has now under considera-
ton, and will undoubtedly accept.
When the arrangements are completed
due notice of the night will be given,
when it is hoped that the house will
be crowded, for full house will in

subscriptions secured by it the preced-

Aerial Travel,

So many times has popular expecta-
tion been raised high in the matter of
aerial navigation only to be subse-
quently dashed to earth that credulity
has all but vanished in this direction.
Yet a seemingly well authenticated
story comes from San Francisco which
Is calculated to revive hope of an early
solution Of this perplexing yet fascinat-
Ing problem. 1t seems that on several
occasion inhabitants Of that city and
Oakland have recently witnessed mov-
ing objects in the air thought to re-
semble cigar-shaped airships. At first
their testimony was secuted, but now
an attorney of that city, George d.
Collins, pronounced by his neighbors
a reputable and truthful man, declares
that he has for years acted as the legal
representative Of a wealthy Californian
who has spent 100000 on secret expert
ments toward aerial travel and has at
last succeeded.
According to this mans testimony

feet long and Is built to carry fifteen
persons. 1t is built on the aeroplane

Thanksgiving Day.

It Is in no narrow partisan sense or
merely superficial jubilation that the
commemoration of this distinctiVely
American holiday is this year ap-
preached by a large majority OF the
influential and respectable citizens or
the republic. Their sense of thankful
ness is devout and genuine, and while
it gives grateful heed to the accus-
toned blessings vouchsafed by KIND
Providence, 1t is especially keen ana
earnest i'm recognition of the escape
which has come through that Provi-
dence to u great government from
perils that lately menaced its peace
its progress and, as many believe, its
very life.
We are glad ttat the exercises OF TINS
day are to be given over very generally
to themes of patriotism. Whatever
may be each individuals debt to the
Supreme Destiny which watches over
human affairs for health and strength
and happiness, and whatever may De
each individuals duty in way of per-
sonal recognition thereof, the collect
i've debt of the American people Is no
how more fittingly discharged than by
dedication of renewed energy to the
safeguarding Of American institutions
and to the solving of the great social
md political problems which have been
allotted to Americans to solve. The loss
which would fall upon civilization
should the citizens of this great re-
public fall short of human possibility
in their effort to work out human lib
erty and secure an equitable distrlpu-
ton of human privilege and human
rights is something which the finite
mind cannot calculate. Here, without
doubt is the theater on which the ell
max of the drama of civilization must
be reached If reached at all. and as we
lift our prayers of thankfulness today
to Him who has saved us from one
recent crisis let us not forget to petit
tion for strength to meet and master
the crises of the future.
History teaches that no nation ever
remained great which did not bow to
an ideal of religious worship. ON this
day, then. let every American who has
regard for the welfare Of his country
participate with reverence in some
,orm of church service calculated TO
stir the fountains of human emotion
and to quicken the pulses of good citi-
zenship. Let it be not America for the
church, nor each for himself: but the
church for America and America for
all deserving mankind!

A NATIONS THANKSGIVING,
For Mckinley.

For the Tribune.
In shadow of dreams I fingered,
1t seemed like hall of prayer;
And lutte strings SO softly fingered
Were Danshing every care.
A hush, such as God only giveth
Had royaled the mystical place,
And q lowering. holy pinion
Thanksgiving had penci!ed in space.
Then slowly a portal opened,
\ room of grandeur and state,
And ] sew a royal lady,
Beside her, q man newly great,
II made you the choice of the people,
My gift is the pride of world,
This caskct / tender so gladly.
With patriots tears was impearlcd.
THE rubies that CLEAN in the cover
Were heart drops from dying and dead
Caught up by the widows and orphans,
oh. fadeless the lrster they shed;
Inside, on p rose-thorny pillow.
Is sleepng the Faith of your race;
Imperil one gem of this casket.
And Heaven shall yield you no place"
Then gently she guided him onward
And ] saw the awe in his face
As they entered a beautiful garden,
Enthroned in foliage of purple
A stately corrolla there grew.
So snowy, so large in dimensions
One wonders if vision be true
Each petal so waXen like folded,
SO cunning so careless the grace
Aroma the breath of the angels,
When kissing the fair. faultless face
"And this Is the Hope of the nation
This plant is your own special care;
No other must enter this garden
And you, oh my hero. beware!
''The life pulse that thrills in your bosom
Is blent with each petal of snow,
And gives to the grand waiting nation,
A JOY or a delIge Of woe.
If blight touch this stainless corrolla,
Your honor your manhood Is dead,
Oh. better stone for a pillow
Than glory like thine to have fled"
loud swelling anthem was ringing,
"Give thanks for our country's new 10y.
Give thanks to OR Father in heaven
For the treasures that holds no alloy
And farther and farther the chorus
Was swelling abroad. DER the main,
Jehovah, Jehovah, the Hishest,
Our JOY has rekindled again.
