DULUTH, Mimi, June 17.-Duluth was
en- fete today, the presence of some 5000
excursionists from the West and the
visits Of Secretary Alger and Gov. Lind
combining to make brilliant holiday
Gov. Lind and the members Of his staff,
accompanied by Col. Van Duzee, of the

Secretary Alger and Adjt. Gen. Lambert
Another attraction of the morning was
the arrival of the steamer North Land,
for her first trip of the season. Hundreds
visited the handsome craft, and she was
crowded during her stay.
This Afternoon many went to Superior

vessel ever built at the yards of the

Gen. Alger and Gov. Lind were given
a reception this evening at the Spalding
Representative Laybourne and A. H
Comstock assisted them in receiving

tonight, before going to his train, that
he had never had more enjoyable trip
nor one that was of greater interest
The parade which was given in honor
this morning was repeated tonight for
the benefit of many that had not been
on hand to witness 1t at II o'clock. The
city was handsomely decorated, and the

mated
The visiting military companies from
st. Paul and Anoka left for home to-
night, as did Gov. Lind and staff. Gov

MEDALS FOR LIFE SAVING.
Heroes and Heroines Come From All
Sections of the Country.

Heroes and HerOines Come From All
Sections of the Country.
From the Century
For many years before the United
States ife-saving service was established
the Massachusetts Humane society main
tanned, along the coast of that state,
houses of refuge for shipwrecked sailors,
and stations equipped with life-saving ap-
paratus in charge of keepers, who, when
the emergency arose, summoned volun-
teer crews. This volunteer life-saving
service is still kept up and is able not
only to render effective assistance to the
regular government crews, but occasion
ally also to save life when the nearest
United States life-saving station is too
far from the scene of disaster for the
crew to arrive in time. The rivalry be-
tween these two corps has been most
generous. There have been no bicker-
ings, no attempts of one to outwit the
other, but a singleness of impulse to
serve in the cause of humanity. Nat
urally, the gold and silver medals award
ed by the United States government for
heroiSm displayed in saving life have
been more frequently bestowed upon
members of the regular service, as this
extends along our entire seaboard and
lake coast, but the volunteer corps has
had it's share of honor.
But by far the greater number of med
ais for heroism displayed in saving life
from drowning have been awarded to in
dividuals-people from the most varied
walks OF life, men of high social position,
Western Indians, Southern negro,
pleasure seekers along the coast Jap
anese cabin steward, steamboat men and
officers and men Of the United States
army, navy and revenue service. Every
section of the country seems to have con-
tributed It's hero or heroines on that roll.
A number Of women hold silver medals,
and two women the gold medal Silver
medals have also been awarded to mere
boys and girls for displays of daring far
beyond their years. Frederic <ernochan
was lad when he received silver medal
for saving woman from drowning in
the Navesink river, near Highlands, n.
j., and Marie D. Parsons, girl of only
ten years, when she rescued a child al
Fireplace, l. l. Nor was Edith Morgan,
of Hamline Mich, much beyond girlhood
when she tried, with her father and
brother, to row to vessel capsized three
miles out. Beaten back by the heavy
waves, she aided In clearing away the
logs and driftwood from the beach so as
to make a track for the surfboat. At
previous rescue she had stood for six
hours in the snow hauling at the life
line In landing sailors from wreck

riskel but lost their lives In the endeavor
to save others. Would there were roll

The Saturday night crowd on Nicollet
avenue was given an opportunity to show
sympathy for the New Richmond fire
sufferers last evening. Ten ballot boxes,
guarded by as many stalwart police Of
ficers, were located at each street in
tersection, from Washington avenue to
Eighth street. Every one was invited to
deposit spare change in the boxes by
banners labeled: Donate here; New

When Mayor Gray and Chi~G Doyle
counted up the contributions they found
$51S13 on hand.
Owing to the unfavorable weather Of
the early evening" the plans for the prom
enade were not carried out in detail.
In spite of the weather, bands were
out and the street for several blocks
was crowded the greater part of the
evening There were nearly 1000 one
cent pieces IN the boxes.

PROFITS OF PIANIsTs
And Freakish Appearance of MANY
Visiting Artists.


New York Sun.
One OF the returning pianists who ia
leaving this country after a stay of sew
eral months admits that he has earned
100000 This is not to be regretted as
he was an admirable artist, and such an
evidence of the material prosperity of
the country is agreeable. 1t is a little dis
couraging to have the estimate of his
profits followed by the announcement of
his intention not to come back here for
at least four years more, as such a dis
position to neglect the opportunity to
make fortune is very rarely encoun-
tered in the case of visiting celebrities
They are likely to return regularly so
long as there Is anything to be earned
and rarely evince a disposition to allow
the ground to lie fallow for years. But
there can be no room for doubt of the
amount the pianist earned. There never
is in the earnings of great musical ar
lists. Nothing is more painful than the
present attempt of aspiring pianist Wis
itors to make their appearance as weird
as possible. They train their hair into
the most freakish ways of growth, as
sumo the most uncanny expressions Of
face and look generally as miserable as
they canal least SO long as they are
in front of the camera. In the case of
men provided by nature with the merely
common features possessed by the ma
tority of mankind, these efforts at distor-
ton are especially distressing They
rarely manage to suggest anything more
interesting than impending nervous pros
tration and the urgent need of a comb
and brush.

MURDER MYSTERY.
The Mutilated Body OF a Man Found
Near Fountain City.

WINONA, Mimi. June N.2(Special.) y
The mutilated body of altman, supposed
to be a victim of the late storm, was
found on the banks of creek a short
distance below Fountain City. An ex-
animation made by the authorities re-
vealed the fact that he was murdered,
the terrible mutilation of his body being
apparently to hide his identity When
found he was lying in a clump of bushes,
and 1t was thought that he had been
washed up by the overflow of the creek,
the mutilation being the result of buffet
ing he received while in the water.
A thorough examination of the body
showed that the face and part of the
skull had been removed, while the arms
and legs had been cut and slashed in
terrible manner. The body was entirely
devoid of clothing, and though a strict
search of the vicinity was made, nothing
in the shape of clothing was found The
physicians who examined the body were
of the opinion that the victim had been
dead about a week. The body has been
taken to Fountain City, and will be held
pending an investigation.

SYNOD AT SPRING GROVE.
Question of Church Government
Discussed by Iutherans.

Discussed by Lutherans.
SPRING GROVE, Mimi, June 1.-THE
Norwegian Lutheran synod today con-
tinued the discussion of the right princi-
pies of church government, which were
stated to be the following:
Christ has constituted no other gov
eminent in His church tfanN that which
is exercised by His own twoTdl This word
is entrusted to the congregation, not to
any particular class ine1t, although the
public preaching of His word according
to His command is to bezdone by persons
who have particularly been called to do
this. In all things not decided by the
word of God the Congregation is the
highest authority. The church govern
ment, which demands obedience because
1T is the government, sets up hierarchy
or tyranny. The formation of a society
Of congregations is not directly COM
manded by God, but foil ws from the ma
ture of faith and love. "A society of con-
gregations has no right to curtail the
liberty of the individual congregation, as
a society of congregations is governed
according to the same principles as the
individual congregation.
