to wave hats and flags and banners; while
the march around the sections was again
taken up-all the state emblems being this
time carried In the procession. A band Of
music entered the hall from the vestibule
and marched at the head of the procession.

Walked Out of the window.

The body of Harry Wade, porter at
Lyons hotel on Fourth street S, near
First avenue, Minneapolis, was found
in the alley at the rear of the hotel He
was partially disrobed and was dead
when found. He had evidently fallen
from the window of his room in the
third story of the building or had
leaped out with suicidal intent,
although there are no other known rea-
sons for the latter supposition than the
discovery of his dead body. Wade was
a widower, his wife having died about
wear ago.

A SONG SERVICE.
Remarkable Religious Demon.tration at
Washington

|
Washington, July l3.-The most re-
variable religious demonstration ever
concentrated at one spot and probably.
the greatest this country has ever seen
was that of the open-air patriotic song
service AZ the east front of the United
States capitol Saturday evening, which
has proved the most popular public
feature Of the big Christian Endeavor
convention. The immense concerted
open space and the green lawns stretch
ing for four blocks in one direction and
three in another were jammed with a
solid mass of humanity, whose prin-
cipal mission was to listen to the work
of the great 4,000-voice chorus, brought
together for the first time. Fully 49,
600 people, at conservative estimate,
were within the shadow of the great
dome Of the capitol, and the sight was
more inspiring than the Inauguration
ceremonies. Tue chorus singers were
massed on the east front stairs. Every
window of the Capitol building was
occupied, and people even were stand
ing upon the roof and dome cornices.
Carriages packed the streets for block
further back from the edge of the
crowd.
The banner which is annually pre-
sented to the local union having report
ed the best work in promoting Chris
tian citizenship, and which was held
by the Chicago City union for three
years, was captured by the local union
from Cleveland, o.
The chorus then sang two of it's ia
vorite songs. The effect was mag
nifcent, the volume coming from
each section of the chorus being Won
derfully balanced as a whole. When
the chorus sang awake the song' the
delegates adjourned the meeting, but
marched down Pennsylvania avenue,
headed by the Marine band, singing En-
deavor hymns. When the treasury was
reached the entire procession broke up
with a rousing chorus.
Washington, July ia list of 30
meetings arranged to be held in the
tents and churches Sunday afternoon
offered varying attractions to the 10000
Christian Endeavor delegates in attend
ance upon the fifteenth international
convention. These were mostly denom-
national rallies, and they drew crowds
according to the numerical strength Of
each particular denomination. The
Baptists, Presbyterians and Congrega-
tionalists occupied the three tents on
the white lot. Speeches were made
at these rallies by prominent mem
bers Of the several denominations. Fol-
lowing these rallies Evangelist B. Fay
Mills, of Fort Edward, n Y, addressed
large audience of citizens in Tent
Washington. A Sabbath observance
meeting was held also in Central hall,
Mr.. William Shaw, of Boston, presiding.
Speeches were made by Wilbur F..
Crafts, of Washington; Mrs. Henry T..
McEwen, of New York. and others. At
hight at seven o'clock Christian En-
deavor prayer meetings were held in all
the churches of the city. Preaching
services both morning and evening il
the city churches were well attended by
citizens and endeavorers.
The board OF. trustees of the Christian
Endeavor association has selected Nash
vile, Tenn, as the place of meeting in
1898. It will be the first international
Christian Endeavor convention ever held
in the south.

NeWA In Brief.

The boiler inspection law is preserved
intact by the decision handed down by
the supreme court. Therefore those
who have been avoiding payment of
fees will now have to ante up or take
the consequences. State Inspector John
Zelch received the news with great
joy, as the refusal of owners of boilers
to pay his deputies has almost brought
the work as well as the income of his
Office to standstill.
Fire completely destroyed the Van
Dnsen-Harrington elevator at Redwood
Falls. Some 100000 bushels of wheat
and 5000 bushels of flax were also ru-
ined. The building cost So, 900, and the
loss is in the neighborhood of $4,000.
The supreme court decision in the
quo warranto proceedings of ex-Mayor
Lewis VS.. DR.. barrow, declares the
Fourth ward illegally created and Dar-
rows election void at Moorhead.
The Noah Adams sawmill at Groundi
House was totally destroyed by fire.
The fire originated in the engine room,l
thus cutting off the supply of water,
Damage estimated between S35, 900 and

DISASTER NEAR CHICAGO.
Picnic Train Wrecked and Five Persons
Are Killed.

are Killed.
Chicago, July 13.-An excursion train
on the Wisconsin Central ran into an
open switch at Altenheim, a suburb ten
miles west of this city, Sunday evening,
killing five people and injuring about
20. The names of the dead are: Charles
Samuels, ChicagoS Frederick Keitel,
Chicago, Fred Koch, Chicago; Miss
Mary Arnold and Miss Mary Hubert.
The train consisted of 13 coaches and
was returning from Schiller park,
where the Graded Assessment club. a
lodge of the Ancient Order of United
Workmen, had given picnic. The
train was coming down a grade APP
preaching the Altenheim station and the
speed was so great the engineer, who
saw the open switch could not reverse
in time to stop. Standing on the sid
ing were a switch engine and an un-
loaded passenger train, waiting for the
excursion to pass. When the heavily
laden picnic train struck the engine
and train the baggage car was tele-
scoped by the next coach. Those who
met death were riding in the baggage
car, as no seats were to be had in the
coaches.
1t is rot known who is guilty of leav-
ing the switch open, but pending an ;n-
vestigation the police arrested Con-
ductor Heater, James Grant and Will
liam Dolan, the crew of the excursion
train, and the crew of the side-trackel
passenger train.

A New Party.

The National party is to be organized
in this state, and if the conditions are
such that it is required state ticket
will be put into the field. This new
movement is the silver branch of the
Prohibition party, which has bolted the
national organization. At the conven-
ton at Pittsburg the gold and silver
factions had a bitter struggle, resulting
in the silver men boiling and putting
forth a platform in favor of silver, pro-
hibition and woman suffrage as the
principal issues. John P. St. John
came this state several days ago with
the special intention of starting the
new party, and a meeting was called
for that purpose.

Used q Postal Card.

W. s. Evans, cashier of the Sher-
bonrn county bank, at Big Lake, was
given the chance of placing 5000 worth
OF good securities in the hands of the
United States marshal as guarantee for
his presence in the federal courts when
needed. The doleful tale told by the
complaining witness showed that Mr..
Evans in his capacity of cashier had
taken the liberty of dunning Dawson
on postal card, an action which this
gentleman naturally resented. Fortu-
nately for him, but unfortunately for
Mr.. Evans, the laws of the United
States are very strict on this point, and
United States Commissioner Bowen
found nothing ridiculous in the COM
plant lodged by Dawson. Mr.. Evans
was held over to the grand jury, which
meets in September next.

The Fort Ridgeley monument associ-
Ation commission held meeting re-
