BOARD IN TWO OR THREE
WEEKS.
WILL REMOVE TO NEW YORK.
ISE II. ID. NEUHAUSEN WILL
GET 1T.
HE WAS THROWN DOWN BEFORE.
But Has Lived in HOpe-The Retir-
ing Inspector Wants G. Il.
Mailer Named.

There will be another vacancy on the
school board in the course of two or
three weeks. School Inspector Scholle
is about to tender his resignation to
the mayor. He has already acquainted
the mayor Of his intention, but will not
formally resign until about the middle
of August. When seen last evening,
Mr.. Scholle said:
Il am obliged to resign from the
school board because 1 am about to
leave st. Paul and remove to New
York city. shall go to New York the
middle Of next month, and soon after
will sail for Europe, where I expect to
remain for perhaps year. Upon re-
turning to this country, I intend to
make New York city my home"
The resignation Of Mr.. Scholle will
give Mayor Doran an opportunity to
recognize the wishes of the alumni of
the high school, who, at meeting held
last spring, expressed it as their opinion
that the interests of the public schools
were such as to render advisable the
appointment of an alumnus of the high
school to the school board. With that
end in view, the alumni selected from
their number T. B. Neuhausen, and re-
quest d that Mr.. Neuhausen be appoint
ed to fill the next vacancy that might
occur. Two vacancies occurred soon
afterward. and the mayor kept his
promise to Mr. Neuhausen by appoint
ing Bernard and e. O. Zimmerman.
The mayor now has a third opportunity
to make good his word by appointing
Mr.. Neuhausen to take Mr. Scholle's
place, but it is entirely probable that
he will appoint c. H. Mailer to fill the
vacancy. Inspector Scholle has talked
the matter over with the mayor, and
expressed his desire to see Mr. Mailer
appointed to succeed him.

NEW YORKER ROBBED OF $500
IN A MINNESOTA STREET
HOUSE.
THROWN INTO THE STREET.
THE WOMEN THEN RUSH OUT OF
THE HOUSE AND GET
AWAY.
Stranger Refuses to Tell His Name
May Change His Mind About
-.. Going to Alaska. -t~-

Two negro women living in a house
known as the "stone 'front.'" at 484 Min
nesota street, robbed a stranger, who
of $500, shortly after o'clock yester-
day afternoon. The stranger, who
claims to have come from New York
and was on his way to Alaska, allowed
himself to be enticed into the place,
and when the women became aware
that he had a wallet containing $500 IN
cash in his hip pocket, they determined
to possess the wealth. While indulg
ing in sundry drinks one of the women,
the stranger says, deftly appropriated
the pocketbook. and a few minutes
later, when the victim discovered he
had been robbed and demanded his
money, he was thrown bodily into the
street. The two women, one of whom
is known as the "Black Pearl" ran out
past the man before he could gain his
feet, and raced down Minnesota street.
The stranger, however, started in pur-
suit, calling for the police at the top
of his voice, but when he left the chase
to approach a citizen, whom he mis-
took for an officer, the women escaped
UP Fourth street. Through all of the
excitement no policeman could be
found, and when the stranger finally
discovered the officer on another part
of the beat, no clue to. the retreat of
the alleged thieves could be learned.
Detectives Wells and Daily were de-
tailed on the case when the matter was
reported to the central station, but
could not locate the woman. Last night
the detectives went to Minneapolis on
the information that the women wanted
had been seen to take an interurban
car about the time Of the robbery, but
up to a late hour no arrests were re-
ported.
The victim of the negroes absolutely
refused to divulge his name to the ALL
thorities, claiming that his loss was his
own, and that if it was necessary
to disclose his identity to recover his
money, he had rather the police would
not move in the matter. He was very
much embarrassed over his predica-
ment, but admitted that he alone was
responsible for his misfortune in hav-
ing allowed himself to get mixed up
in such company.

PASTOR KISSED IN CHURCH.
Is Denounced for Marrying IL Col.
Ored Mail tn 81 White Girl


Ored Man to "a White Girl.
MILWAUKEE,. Wis, July 26.-The
performance of the marriage ceremony
for colored man and a young white
woman within the sacred portals Of
ed in a secession by fully a third Of
the members of that congregation,
who held aloof Sunday from their
usual place of worship and conduct
ed their Sabbath devotionS at Schmidt's
hall.
This action was taken after a crus-
ade had been inaugurated against the
pastor, Rev. George Hirtz, in the
course of which he was reminded by
some of his parishioners that if he had
thus acquieSced in an amalgamation
of the races in a state like Missouri
he would have been treated to, a coat
ing of tar and feathers or lynched.
few days ago when David p. Redd,
the cOlored man who has innecently
been the cause of the eruption among
the members of Trinity church, drove
up in carriage to that place of Wor-
ship with his prospective bride and
few friends, there was an ugly demon-
stration by members of the congreg2-
ton that was not on the programme
The bridal party was greeted by a
storm Of Kisses and epithets and for a
few minutes resistance was offered to
their-entry to the church.
Rev. Mr.. Hirtz appeared on the scene
and short speech from him Quelled
the disturbance. The ceremony had
no sooner been performed, however,
than a storm broke loose among the
large congregation of Trinity church
Rev. Mr.. Hirtz was denounced in
acrimonious terms by some of his lead
ing parishiOners, who threa tened to
withdraw from membership in the
church unless the pastor made a suit
able apology fer the alleged affront.
Some Of the young lady communicates
declared they would never consent to
get married in a church that had thus
been defled by the admission of a
colored man to it's hymeneal altar.
Prof. Althoff. ore of the teachers OF
Trinity parochial school, was one of
the strongest in his denunclation Of
the pastor, and declared that if such
an affair had occurred in an evangelical
church down in Missouri, where he
came from, the congregation would
take the minister out of the pulpit and
lynch him. The sentiments of Prof.
Althoff met with warm approval by
many of his coreligionists.
Sunday the faction led by him met
at Schmidt's hall for Christian de-
votions and fully 500 of the former
attendants at Trinity were present. The
services were conducted by Phillip
Bretsch, a layman. Preliminary steps
were taken toward the organization of
a new church society, in which the I'M
written law will place a ban upon the
amalgamation of Philippians and eau
casians. The Trinity congregation COM
priseS many of the best known Ger
nlan-American families of the city and
has always been noted for it's liberal
views on public questions

SCALE a BIG MESA.
Cliff That Has Dehed Ascent for
Centuries Explored.

ALBUQUERQUE, N. NJ, July 20
After four centuries of effort the Mesa
Encantada has been scaled. The honor
belongs to Prof. Libby, of Princeton
university. The ascent is the most diff
ficult of any in the world. The mesa
rises to a height of $50 feet from the
plains and covers a space of about ten
acres. For ten years the place has
challenged the attention of scientific
MEN, because of the rumor that it was
inhabited by an ancient race, and num-
erous efforts have been made to reach
it's summit, to no avail
Prof. Libby was equipped with
number of tandem kite teams, bal
loon and a gun used by the United
States life-saving service. 1t was with
this latter apparatus that the ascent
Of the rock was made which Coronado.
as early as two centuries ago, stated
was more impregnable than Gibraltar,
against which the armies of the world
would not avail. The cannon was an
chored in the desert and a cord 1900
feet in length was shot over the mesa
and made fast in the sand on the OPP
posite side. Then a workman made
the ascent, creeping and climbing over
the rough edges and shelves of rocks
to the summit, followed by Prof. Lib

READY FOR HEAVY RAINS.
Two Thieves Steal Twenty-Five
MncL<intosTes at Once.


The warcrooms of the st. Paul Rubber
company, 371-373 Robert street, were bur
glarzed sometime between Saturday night
and yesterday morning, OF twenty-five mack
intOsh coats valued at 5000. Shortly after The
robbery was reported to the police Detectives
Gruber and Murnane arrested Joseph De
vignon and Butch" Corchoran on suspicion
of being the guilty parties.
The discovery of the burglary resulted in
an investigation which gives rise TO the the
DRY that the rubber company has been sys-
tematically robbed for an indefinite period,
and that the value of the property stolen may
greatly exceed S2e0. Entrance to the building
was obtained, in an unusual and clever man
ner. One OF the shutters in third story
window was blown partly off some months
ago and had not been repaired. Directly ep-
poslte this window, separa ed by space of
about ffteen feet, IS lodging house, where
1t is claimed the thieves secured apartments,
and by means of bridge formed by strong
board. made excursions into the warerooms
at VIII. The window was found unlocked yes
+ board had rested on the Sill showed the
method of entrance. An empty packing box
from which the stolen coats had been taken
led to the discovery of the burglary Had
the box been removed, Official of the COM
pany said yesterday that It would have been
possible for the thieves to have covered up
even the theft of so large number CT mack
| 'iiitoskes, as the large stock on hand would
have rendered the loss of but one box of coats
unnoticed. =. - art:rr 80 r
The Theory Of an extensive robbery arises
from the Identification of two mackintoShes
which were found in possession of Harry
b Grant and Jamesi Kelly; the men arrested
Saturday for. stealing a quantity of wearing
apparel from the store of Norman, Hausam
& Co., 177 South Wabasha street, as the prop
erty OF the rubber company. 1t is suspected
that the men arrested in West st. Paul and
the prisoners captured by Detectives Gruber
and Murnane yesterday are members of an
organized gang of thieves who have been
taking. two, or three coats at time from
me rubber company for possibly soTle
months. Having had access to the build ne
this, the officials of the company say would
have been possible without detection until a
complete inventory OF the stock had been
taken, as a small number of garments would
not have been otherwise missed. -
