WILLIAM A. SPENCER DEAD.
United States District Court Clerk
Passes Away.

After a long illness, William A
Spencer, clerk of the United States dis
trict court, died yesterday morning at
his residence, 80 Irvine Park He was
an honored and widely known pioneer
of the city, and a Mason of high stand
ing. He was appointed to the clerk
ship of the federal district court for
Minnesota, in October, 1868, continuing
in office to the time of his death Ow-
ing to failing health, however, he had
for the last three years left the active
duties of his position to the care of
his son. Charles L. Spencer, deputy
clerk.
Mr.. Spencer was seventy-two years
of age. He was born in Utica, N. Y,
and his father was John L. Spencer
He was educated as lawyer and
came to st. Paul in 1856 to practice the
profession, which he followed success
fully until his appointment to the
clerkship of the United States district
court
The deceased's wife, who survives
him, was Miss Marie A Langford, a
sister of N. P. Langford, of this city.
He also leaves two sons, Charles and
William A. Spencer both of whom are
well known in st. Paul. DR.. Spencer,
another son, died about five years ago.
Charles L. Spencer returned home last
evening from Fergus Falls, where he
had been attending court. Arrange
ments for the funeral have not yet
been made.

MCREADY DIVORCE CASE.
Another Ruling in the Fight for the
PrODerty,

A decision which Judge Lewis, of
the district court, made yesterday in
the famous McCready divorce suit
practically disposes of the right of
Stella M. McCready to the estate of j.
J. McCready, deceased, amounting to
$4,000 or more, of which she is adj
ministratriX, and leaves the property
to Ida NJ. McCready.
The matter came up before Judge
Lewis on a motion by the administra-
triX of the estate to be substituted for
the defendant in the suit of Ida NJ. Nc
Cready against j. j. McCready, an ac-
ton in divorce. In that case the di-
vorce was granted, but the proper
record for a number of years, and
.fiually Judge Egan ordered it entered
nunc pro tune. In the meantime Stella
had married McCready, and she now
claims to be his widow.
Learning that McCready left consid-
cradle property, Ida objected to hav-
ing judgment entered in the divorce
case, and began suit to recover the es-
tate as the legal widow of McCready,
through the original divorce proceed
ings Stella sought to be made defend
ant in her representative capacity, so
that the old divorce suit brought by
Ida could be pushed to final judgment.
Judge Lewis holds in his memorandum
that under the peculiar circumstances
of the case, and the fact that the de-
PENDANT is dead, the court is not com
petent to cause judgment to be entered
in the action at hand. Both of the
women claim to be the legal wife of
McCready, and each wants his prop
erty In all probability the matter will
be carried to the supreme court.

CLOSED THE SCHOOL.
Diphtheria Among Scholars of ST
Bernard's ParOchiaI Institution.

Diphtheria is on the rampage in the
vicinity of Rice, ALTERNATE and Jes-
samine streets. The disease finally
made it's appearance among the pupils
of st. Demands parochial school at
the southwest corner of Albermarle
and Rose street, which is in charge Of
the Benedictine sisters. 1t spread
among the pupils, some five or six con-
tracing it, whereupon the sisters vol
UNFAIRLY closed the school, and will
keep it closed until the health depart
ment takes some measures to improve
the sanitary condition of the neighbor-
hood.
1t seems that there is a depression
in the ground of a lot close by, in
which water collects and remains until
it becomes stagnant and covered with
a green film. DR.. Perkins, the assist
ant health commissioner, has visited
the locality, and collected samples of
the water for archaeological analysis.
1t is proposed to ascertain the nature
of the disease germs with which the
ncighborhood is infested, while the
health department will exhaust every
means to check the further spread of
diphtheria in the district.

Foss AND THE NAVAL VETS.
Says Honor He Received at Buffalo
Belongs to Them.

"It is an honor which 1 feel deeply
but one which really belongs to the as
ISOLATION which, SO far away from the
Atlantic coast, can maintain such a
fair name as to command recognition
from the national association"
This is what J. F. r. Foss said last
night to the members of the Minnesota
Society of National Naval Veterans at
their monthly NEE ting at the Metropol-
itan hotel Mr.. Foss, who is the pre-
siding officer of the state association,
was making a formal report of the &C
ton taken at Buffalo at the recent q.
A. r. encampment, when he was elect
ed commodore and Martin Gary chief
engineer of the parent organization. He
further explained that the recognition
of Minnesota by the national organiza-
ton was in a great measure due to the
able manner in which the Minnesota
naval veterans conducted the naval
end of the ceremonies at the st. Paul
encampment. 1t was reported that the
membership list was nearly eighty, and
the prominence given the Minnesota
society was likely to still further add
to this The Minnesota society was
the eighth to organize out Of the forty
which now exist, although this state
sent but two men to help swell the
naval force of the country, the others
in the organization being those who
have settled here since the war.

Result of Ruling in Damages
Suit.

The motion of defendant for new
trial in the case of Julia Fillmore
against the ST. Paul Street Railway
company was denied yesterday in the
district court by Judge Lewis. The
action was to recover $2,750 as dam
ages for personal injuries. Plaintiff
was a passenger on a car which was
run down by railroad train on Smell
ing avenue last year during the Grand
Army encampment, and in her petition
she alleged that she had been seriously
injured. She recovered $4,000 damages
at the first trial, but Judge Willis inn
mediately set aside the verdict, as the
trial judge held that damages in the
sum of $500 would have been sufficient.
Under Judge Lewis ruling the case
will be carried to the supreme court,

A Protest.

FRosTDURG, Md, September Is, 1897.
To the MINING JOURNAL.
The lecture to be given in Meats
hall Sunday night may not violate the
letter, but certainly does violate the
spirit of the law concerning places of
amusement on that day. The char
acter of the lecture will violate the
spirit of christianity, being nothing
but TRADE and abuse of fellow-chris-
tians.
There are proper times, places and
persons for instruction, and proper in
divlduals to advise concerning errors
of various religious systems. The
place is not a public hall, made attrac-
tive so as to gather as much money as
possible. The proper person is not an
irresponsible 'traveling man, but a
regular settled pastor. The individ-
uals to receive such instruction should
not be the motley crowd who will as
semble in the hall, and whose sole re-
ligion is opposition to Rome. Such
persons should be built up in atfirma-
tive doctrine and taught something
definite to love, rather than hate with
an excited, prejudiced passion. The
persons to be taught errors of different
religious systems are persons who ex-
press an interest in religion and doing
so want an authoritative guide to di-
rect them Alright and keep them from
going wrong.
Such persons in general, unless very
young and inexperienced, will not be
seen in the hall Sunday night, but will
be found in then respective houses of
worship.
Those who make no profession of
christianity, who seldom receive the
ordinances of their respective bodies
the curiosity-seekers, will be there.
They are the ones who add nothing
material or substantial to the cause of
Christ hence, it is just the place for
them to go on Sunday night.
Be it understood that | am in the
strongest sense A NoN-RoMANIsT.

pray what merchant produces the goods
which he purchases and sells?
SO far as the buyer is concerned the
merchant is practically producer as
well as seller.
"The laborer sells no more labor than he
can supply" Who disputes that assertion or
in what way do those selfevident truths re-
flute the equally indsputable contention that
the producer has more to sell than he needs
to buy
The Independent disputed it when it
said "the producer has more to sell
than he needs to buy"
Does not the coal miner dig more coal than
he burns? Does not the farmer produce

90 Years.

With this issue the JOURNAL closes
the Goth year of career originally and
Internationally Independent and con-
tinually and exclusively great.
No matter what comment the selfish
purposes of petty monopolists may in
spire, no institution has ever attracted
to Frostburg the attention the JOURNAL
has won for the old town. None has
prosecuted its general welfare nor de-
Tended its interests and its prestige so
strongly and consistently. Hhasu1uays
stood for Frost6uy-town and people,
and it is worthy of record to state also
that it has never been overthrown.
In this connection it ought to be said
that if the people had reciprocated this
long and continuous service with even
half the spirit which animated the
paper, it would be far better off than
1t is.
That it has made mistakes of omis-
sion, oversight and inadvertence, goes
without confession, but that it ever
designedly injured any man or inter
est, it denies,
With no space for elaboration, it
will content itself by assuring its
clientele that it will continue to be tile
paper of both this town and this coun.
ty, and the most conspicuous example
of journalistic independence in this
portion Of MARYLAND.
