A Sacred So1emnity Attaches to
Loyal Legion Meeting.

Gen. John Gibbons death will not
prevent the holding of the Lincoln's
birthday celebration by the Loyal
legion on Wednesday evening, al
though the absence of the expected
guest will add an air of reverent
solemnity to the occasion, sacred even
though it was in the first place to the
memory Of the nations martyr. The
arrangements for a reception to the
general of course, have been done away
with. leaving only the banquet pro-
gramme.
A stated meeting of the commandery
will be held at the Ryan at Z, and at
the members and their guests will re-
pair to the dining room, where the ban
quet will be served. The occasion will
be graced by the presence of the fair
sex, and following the repast there will
be addresses appropriate to the oc-
casion by Gen. Brooke, Rev. S. G.
Smith, and ex-senator Gilbert A.
Pierce. Superintendent Smith has ar
ranged TO have special Interurban cars
leave the Ryan for Minneapolis at II
o'clock. During the evening the fol-
lowing programme will be rendered by
the Third Infantry band from Fort
Smelling:

bers Of the club at the banquet to be
given by the other club on Lincoln's
birthday. This will probably serve
as nuptial dinner, though taking
place little In advance of the tying
of the knot-something of an innova-
ton in the conducting of weddings.
The committee on entertainment
was requested to prepare programme
for the occasion of the birthday OF
the Republican party. Feb. %, which
happens to be Washington's birthday.
The Central club met in Elks' hall in
the Lowry Arcade. Perhaps there
were forty members present whose
deliberations were presided over by A.
G.. Briggs, while Fred S. Bryant Of
fciated as secretary.
Two matters absorbed most of the
attention of the young Republicans;
namely. the matter of a banquet at
the Windsor next Wednesday evening,
and the proposed consolidation of the
two organizations.
William l.. Ames, of the Second
ward, and j. M. King, from White
Bear Lake, were added to the execu-
tive committee.
The consolidation proved a more mo-
mentous matter and it was plain that
the members were not quite sure how

FLIRTING WITH EACH OTHER.
The Republican Clubs Patching Up
Their Differences, >o.r

\
Unless some of the mishaps so com
mon to lovers should intervene, it is
entirely probable that the Young Mems
Republican League club and the Young
Mems Central Republican club will
shortly assume conjugal relations Each
has now matchmaking committee in
the field. and about the only question
on which there is any real danger of a
disagreement is with reference to which
is to act as bride. On the one hand the
league, being composed of very young
men, might the most fittingly have con-
ferred upon it that honor, provided a
maiden is considered the more appro-
pirate for bride. Certainly this aggre-
cation of shy, bashful young men might
ntt1nSiy be chosen as representing
type Of maidenhood, especially since
each is now passing through the trying
ordeal of celebrating on his maiden
speech or just recovering from the ef-
fects Of one
But on the other hand, If the bride is
to be of mature years and experience
one With all the maternal qualifications
tuliy deveIoped-by all means the other
club is the one on which the dlstinc-
ton should be conferred, for it Is COM
posed of the war horses, bosses of the
wards and officeholders In fact. this
old dame has about past the age of
coquetry and has reached that stage
In life when best suited to keeping house
and performing the other wifely du-
ties--though in their day her members
have fiirted with everything political,
and most Of them would still be found
ready with a sly glance should some
political plum turn up in their path
way.
This is delicate question, however,
and the G lobe simply throws out
these hints as to the claims of the re-
spective clubs for the bridal trosseau
Now let them decide for themselves.
But on whichever the honor is ccn-
ferred, the arrangements for the we'd
ding have now progressed to the sec
ond stage, SO that it is a ten to one
shot that the thing will come off in the
near future. AT the meeting Of the
league club last night committee, Of
which w. M. Higgins was chairman
made its appearance from the rival
club and submitted an address Of good
will, in which amalgamation was sug-
gested. This was responded to by the
appointment of a committee Of five to
consider the feasibility Of consolidating
the two clubs.
The address went on to state that the
bearers thereof were appointed as the
result of a visit from one who had been
sent by the committees of the league to
make a friendly call and bear to the
sister club kind words of greeting The
address then went on to state that the
Young Mems Republican club Is to give
a banquet at the Windsor hotel on Lin
coins birthday, Feb. IL, and invited all
the members of the league who desired
to do so to attend. In conclusion, it
suggested the appointment Of a commit
tee to confer with the committe bearing

ROsEAU WANTS MORE.
The New Northern County Would
Extend It's Limits.

Secretary of State Berg yesterday GER
tilted to the governor the petition OF
Roseau county residents for the addi-
ton to the limits of the new county
certain portions Of the adjacent county
of Beltrami. The Roseau county peo-
pie claim that by reason Of topography,
as well as geography, the territory has
interests identical with those Of Roseau
county, and it is also set up that Roseau
has suffered so sorely in the selection
o. indemnity lands by the state audi
tor that the addition of the townships
in question will not much more than
compensate the new county for the in
roads thus made upon it..
The petition filed on Friday by c.
A. Moody, the Roseau editor, who is an
active mover in the scheme. Moody
was formerly secretary Of the state
Democratic association.

they stood with the other club. When
a friendly resolution was received and
read considerable discussion was in
dulged in and several members made
speeches indicating that they thought
the efforts of the club had gone far
enough.
A Amotion was made therefore that the
committee named to make overtures be
discontinued, but other counsel pre-
vailed and the dread result was avoid
ed. 1t was finally decided to accept
the committees report and continue
its existence until further develop
ments.
Judge Willrich was to have expound-
ed the principles of the Republicans to
the young men, but was not present.
1t was decided to secure eloquent
speakers for the subsequent meetings
and steps were taken looking to that
end. A large number Of new names
were added to the list of membership

Lenten Shadows Approach.

The shadows of the great Lenten
fast are beginning to fall upon the
Episcopal churches. Preparations are
already under way to observe the sea-
son this year with more earnestness
than in previous years. 1t is rather
singular that while the Episcopal
church makes provisions for retreats"
for the clergy and women" as pre-
paration for Lent, she makes none for
''men only" Yet surrounded as they
are by daily influences for evil, the
temptations that bestrew their path
are far greater than that which beset
the clergy or women. Several Of the
leading Christian denominations last
year broke away from their old con-
ventional ideas and observed the
Lenten fast by more frequent prayers
and coming together for public wor-
ship.

she ever was, and every Power on the
globe is doing, it's best to keep up with
the strong adversary. European ma

the armed forces and the border lines
bristle with death dealing weapons of

there is not much of the spirit of arbi-

THE PACIFIC
DAY, SEPTEMBER 8

An evening paper, referring to the
Hustled directory, copies of which were
received by the last steamer, states
that Mr.. Hustled had no intention Of
having his book published in this coun-
try. While we cannot vouch for Mr.
Husted's intentions, it's due him as
business man TO state that he requested
the Hawaiian Gazette Company to print
the book, which request was refused
on account of negotiations then going
on with Mr.. Finney, who was the first
applicant As to the excellence of the
two directories we have no fight; they
will speak for themselves; but it Is
nothing more than common courtesy
TO give Mr.. Hustled the credit which is
due any business man who is courteous
and Straightforward in his dealings.
