AMENDING THE BYLAWS.
National Polish Union Continues Its
Session.

A smaller attendance than that of
the previous day marked the second
session of the national convention of
the Polish National union held yester-
day in Jarorzs hall, Thomas and Gaul-
tier streets.
The meeting was called to order at 3
o'clock, and on the report Of the COM
mittee on credentials the following del
egates were allowed seats:
StaniSaus Kowalsk st. Paul Christ Tim
ma, st. Paul. Josef Nowak st. Paul; Aug.
Okoniewski, St. Paul; Ignatius ldzorek, St.
Paul; Antonio Wienemeski, Buffalo, n. Y;
Leon BoZiziuski, Minneapolis: Francis Polak,

Creek, Wis; LadisluS Rozycki, st. Paul;
John Goryca, Buffalo, n. Y; John Pulkowski,

Wis; Jacob Skroch Independence, Wis;
ski, Wilkesbarre, Pa; Francies Affelt Dur
yea, Pa; Frances Bulera, ST. Paul; Andrew
Kruczewski, St. Paul; Joseph Libowski, In
dependence, Wis.
The chief interest Of the morning
session centered in the debate upon the
entrance age limit. Heretofore local
societies have been accorded the priv
ilege of enrolling members up TO the
age prescribed by their respective con-
stitutions. After much discussion the
constitution was amended so that
while all present members of local or
CARNATIONS will be admitted to the
union no new members may be re-
ceived locally over the age of forty
five. The age limit was formerly fifty.
Another constitutional amendment
changed from five to twenty years the
length of membership which entities
individuals to share in the cid age ben
eft fund.
At the afternoon session the ques-
ton Of admitting members of the Ma
tional Polish Alliance to membership
in the union was discussed. The de-
cision reached rejects individual mem
bers except upon abandonment Of their
alliance membership; but that lodges
or local alliances as a body would be
admitted.
: Changes of small importance were
made in ether sections Of the constitu-
ton, the Insurance applications and
medical examination blanks.
An adjournment was made until to-
day at a. m, when the election Of Of
ficers comes before the meeting.

ROnRY BOYS.

Those fortunate enough to hear 'Ro-
neys Boys" who open their engage
ment at the Peoples church tonight,
will surely want to hear them again:
The quartette has not a single stick;
there is no ordinary voice among the
four. Their voices are under the high
est cultivation and remarkably sweet
and at the same time powerful. The
first soprano has a voice of remark
able sweetness and delightful fiexibili-
t.. His range is phenomenal, his high
note being F sharp above high c. The
rich, deep voice CT the second alto is
one of the greatest contraltos that
ever came from a boys throat. The
little elocutionist is a favorite with the
audience as soon as he appears, and
is always compelled to respond to an
encore.
The largest audience that has ever
appeared at the Auditorium in Chicago
was to hear the "Roney Boys" when
there were more than six thousand
people present.
Prof. Roney trained Blanchford Kav
anagh. Tickets now on sale at How-
ard, Farwell & Co.'s. Popular prices.

While the contract between the state
board Of capitol commissioners and
the Butler-Ryan company for the con-
struction of the princely pile in which
future state officers are to make their
political homes, has not as yet been
signed, the members of the board de-
clare that it will be in a day or two,
and that the report published in an
evening paper in Minneapolis that the
commission would delay the execution
OF the papers in the anticipation of a
legal contest, was unWarranted.
The commission itself has also gone
on record in respect to a much mooted
question, that of the alleged coercion
charged against Gov. Clough. The fol-
lowing letter was made public yester-
day:
st. Paul, Sept. Z, 1S97.-D. NJ. Clough, Gov
ernor, Dear Sir: recent publication in
one of the daily papers having misrepresented
statements purported to have. been made by
you at the last meeting of the capitol COM
mission, during the discussion Immediately
prior to the award of a contract for the SUI
perstructure of the new capitol, we desire,
in justice to ourselves, and to you, to state
that your remarks were that you were in
favor of using, and that you hoped the board
would adopt, a Minnesota stone for the
building, but you did not express yourself
either fer or against any particular stone.
You also said, during the discussion, that
you could not, under the law, and would
not, while governor, approve any vouchers
that the board might ever pass that should
exceed the total appropriation CT $1,000 000
but you did not name any particular stone
in that connection.
Nothing in the nature of an implied
threat or dictation to the board was EN-
bodied in any Of your remarks, and any state
ments to the contrary are unfounded and mis-
leading.
We have no desire to avoid the response
bilty which rests upon us, as the voting
members Of the board, and hence we ad-
dress you this communication. Respectfully,

How Hoyt Wrote "a MllE white rag"

About three years ago Chas Hoyt
visited Boston, and gave dinner to a
party of friends, among them being
Eugene Tompkins, proprietor Of the
Boston Theater and the Academy of
Music, New York; John Mentally of the
Boston Herald; Julian Mitchell, gener-
al stage manager for Hoyt; Harry Nc
Clellan, manager for Eugene Tompkins
and others
During the course of the dinner Hoyt
incidentally told, in his quaint and hui
morous way, story which was SO
thoroughly funny and the complicated
situations of the characters so absurd,
that he sat his hearers in commissions
of mirth. After the laughter had in a
measure subsidized, some one asked
Hoyt if he had name for the story,
He replied that he thought he should
christen it '..The Story ola Milk White

In America People Leave Nothing fOA

In America it is the customary
nearly the universal custom-for par
ents to spend upon the luxuries ana
pleasures of the family life the whole
income, says the North American Re-
view. The children are educated ac-
cording to this standard Of expenditure
and are accustomed to all its privileges.
No thought is taken Of the time when
they must set up households for them
selves-almost invariably upon a very
different scale from the one to which
they have been used. To the American
parent this seems only natural down.
fall. They remark cheerfully that they
themselves began in small way and
it will do the young people no harm to
acquire a similar experience, forgetting
that in most cases their children have
been educated to a much higher stand
ard of ease than that of their own early
life. They do not consider 1t obligatory
to leave anything to their children at
death. They have used all they could ac-
cumulate during their own lifetime
let their children do the same. The re-
suits Of the system are cyrstallized in
the American saying, There are but
three generations from shirt sleeves to
shirt sleeves" The man who acquires
wealth spends what he makes. His
children, brought up in luxury, s.rug-

Of age, living near Savoyard, KY, has
already mastered the common school
rudiments of his scholastic education,
and is always up in algebra, geome-

higher branches. He is said to be q
lightning calculator, and a marvel in
many respects.
