WOULDN'T OPEN THE BRIDGE.
Steamers Henrietta and Vernie Mao
Unable to Get Above Bloomington.

Steamers Henrietta and Vernie Mac
Unable to Get Above Bloomington.
The excursionists on board the Henri
eta yesterday were treated to some novel
experiences on the crafts initial trip Of
the season up the Minnesota river. Or
course It's lots of fun to get aground on
SAND bar and have to stay on the boat
half the night before being released, but
Capt. Eurant yesterday had one better
than that for his patrons.
The day was fair and the party includ-
ed some prominent st. Paul people All
went well during the morning, but early in
the afternoon the Henrietta and the YER
ME Mac occupied positions as a lombard
ing fleet before the Bloomington draw
bridge, In Hennepin county, for several
hours. The ten-fnch telescopes of both ar
mored cruisers were trained on the bridge
tender, who refused to open the draw,
while the excursionists We'd with one an
other for positions of vantage upon the
boats.
There was a changing of bells and loud
orders were issued as the Henrietta came
to stop on the port side of the flag
snip VERNE Mac in the middle CT the
river. While the passengers were busy
finding what 1t was all about the captains
of the two boats went on shore as peace
commissioners The bridge tender do
clared that he coud not open the bridge.
Capt. Dunning, of the VERNE Mac, sug-
gested that rope be tied to one end Of
the bridge and that the boats pull 1t OPEN
Mr.. Sagasta Bridge Tender informed the
commissioners that If that course was
taken further negotiations would have to
close, as that would result disastrously
to the bridge Both Capt. Dunning and
Capt. Durant Inspected the bridge criti-
cally and agreed that the structure would
not stand very much persuasion of that
kind.
In the meantime the crews of both
boats We're showing their patriotism
by hoorays of encouragement and impa-
tience. The council continued an hour
or more. The bridge man said the board
of county commissioners Of Hennepin was
to blame. The sailors did not care who
was to blame. as the passengers wanted
to get through to the garden spot" of
Minnesota just beyond, otherwise known
as Shakopee. Capt. Durant agreed to
settle with the board of county commits
sioners. Mr.. Bridge Tender said that to
open the bridge was impossible, as the
board of county commissioners had plank
ed one end of the bridge with heavy lum-
Der, rendering that end heavier than the
other. If the bridge was opened that end
would overbalance and fall into the wa
ter.
The steamers finally had to be turned
back and a. visit was made to Minnehaha
falls and the soldiers home, where the
party spent :; an hour inspecting the
grounds and viewing the historical tryst7
Ing place of Hiawatha. No further Incl
dent occurred and the return was made
as the setting sun was taking its last look
from the horizon.

Rev. j. ID. Paxton Urges His Flock

God has given us talents and He asks
that we use them for Him, that is all
He asks. He has given US time and lie

and surely that is not gerat deal. He
sends us opportunities, and He only asks
that we seize them as they slip by, that
is all. / would not have you make this
spiritual traffic insignificant would have
you engage in it on a large scale. We
have been told to trade with what God
has given us. Trade with foreign lands,
If you choose, trade with the eternal
shore. Send out great ships and by that
you may rest assured that these ships
will be seen coming back heavily laden.
"Oh, my friends, why not invest in q

when the years have fled, we will look
out on life's broad ocean and here and

Gilt DWellers.

The mummies of three ancient cliff
jewellers have just been discovered in a
hillside near old Camp Verde. They
were found in a crypt dug into the solid
rock and tightly sealed by a wall OF
masonry, the interior of the crypt being
neatly plastered. A number Of num-

pygmies, with crania1 forma ton dis

so small as to be those of children They
were wrapped in a single cotton blanket,
which was intact and has been saved,
except the portion that was between
the bodies and the ground.
It is usual for all cloth and even wood
found in such crypts to crumble on be-

beads comprising a necklace 80 inches

Afternoon Address at Y. M. C. A.


Afternoon Address at Y. M. C.. A.
In an address before the members of the
Y. M. c. A. yesterday afternoon Rev. R.
L. Barackman chose the last words of
Moses to the children Of Israel, ct call
heaven and earth to record this day that
I have set before you life and death;
therefore choose life that you and your
seed may live" and commended the adj
monition to the people of today
Applying the text, Rev. Mr.. Barackman
pointed out that the choice Of life was
right choice. though death came into
the lives and experiences of men, The
choice was open to all and none should
choose wrongly. The plea of Moses to
the children of Israel was based upon his
own experiences, as are the eXhortat tons
to righteousness today based upon the
experiences of those who make then,
while Christ pleaded by His word With
the choice placed before them men were
responsible If they entered the wrong

II Americans choose 10 aid the enemies Of their

Atkinson and his associates. there is method
with the popular understanding of the Constitu-
tion and the laws whereby they be either
checked or punished. Their vindictiye hostility

counted in with the other adverse chances Of

is necessary to enunerate 81 many Filipinos and
so many Atkinsons; many in the jungle around
Manila and so many in Boston.
Counting all these chances and making rea-

reason to doubt the final victory Of the American
arms. The support which Americans give to
the enemy will not only prove deiusiou and

STRIKERS USE THE BOYCOTT.
A Remarkable. State of Affairs Ex-
istinU in London Ontnrio

London, Ontario, June 25.-This city is
having curious experience owing to a
strike of the street car conductors and
motormen, which began on May %, anl
mas spread till it now affects all classes of
business. After stoppage of the service
tor couple of days the company secured
a stan of non-union men and began 10
operate the system. But few people will
ride on the cars. This is not because of
sympathy with the strikers. but from fear
OF Icing boycosted.
The Loycott is not only openly threaten
ed. but is also carried to an extent per-
haps never before heard Of AS an in
stance: A young woman was observed
riding on car. She is an orphan and is
efarioyed as typewriter in a business
office. A committee of the strikers wait
ed upon. her and asked her not to repeat
the uf:ence.1 She told them to mind their
own business. Her employer was next ap-
pealed to. He promised to speak to her.
but refused to discharge her for not
changing her course. The strikers then
hunted up distant relative who keeps
a grocery store. and he was plainly told
that If he did not induce her TO stop rid
ing in the cars he would lose the trade of
the trades unionists, who pretend to repre-
sent 1900 families il the city.
A merchant was ordered to take his ad-
Vertlsement out OF city paper. He had
a yearly contract. but prefers to pay for
the blank space rather than to go counter
to the demand of the trades unionists. This
sort of thing runs through all the business
OF the city. The operators in daily news
paper refused to set the copy of two re-
porters who rode on the cars, and it had
TO be rewritten by another and promise
made that the offence would not be re-
peated The sins of the fathers are Wis
tied upon the children, and the crime OF
riding upon street car by any one mem
ber OF fmily is held 10 be sufficient cause
for boycotting the family in all its
branches.
Commercial travellers dare not ride for
fear their customers may be boycotted;
preachers will not board a car, else they
would find their churches empty, for the
trades unionists would not only stay away
but they would boycott all business men
who might attend.
