this is ungallant in the extreme, and
wholly unbecoming two gentlemen of such
markedly urbane manners and polished

guished young jurist who in this case
acts as his official adviser. File, fie, gen
tlemen; it will never do. Let the ladies
go their way and take the consequences,
which are to the most of them much
more far-reaching than either of you wot
of, without devsing new pains and pen

TWO UNGALLANT OFFICIALS,

No doubt Mayor Kiefer will regard

the luminous and altogether exhaustive
opinion of the young gentleman who of
ficiates as third assistant to the city at
torney. The overwhelming public griev-
ance arising from the criminal tendency
of our hotel keepers to promote royster-
ing habits on the part of their guests by
keeping their barrooms open at unseen
ly and unlawful hours will no doubt also
find a serious check in the voluminous

provided for his honor

the alleged misconduct of the ladies'
who resort to the wine rooms and the
profound need which exists accordingly
to admonish, restrain and punish these
offending daughters of Mother Eve
The general spirit of American laws
and social institutions tends toward the
protection of the members of the gentler
sex in the exercise of all those personal
rights assured to their ungentle brethren.
PROFESSIONALLY one of these rights is to
visit all manner of places of public re-
sort so long as they do not interfere
with the comfort and we'll being of those
around them. Just why our local chief
executive deems it Of prime Importance
to curtail or modify the rights of the
sex thus assured is not quite apparent
at first sight. Nor does the urgent need
of such a course suggest itself. Accord
ing to Mr.. Arnold, the local statutes af-
ford the amplest means whereby to pros
ecute and punish saloonkeepers who har-
Dor persons of evil conversation of either
sex. What is the urgent need then, the
average unlearned citizen will inquire,
for wasting so much valuable legal lore

SAINTS AND SINNERS.
How Dwight Moody Got an Audience
to Hear Him Out

to Hear Him Out
Baltimore Herald.
When Mr.. Moody was on a journey in
the western part of Massachusetts, he
called on a brother in the ministry on
Saturday, thinking to spend the Sabbath
with him, If agreeable. The man appear
ed glad TO see him and said:
Il should be very glad to have Won
stop and preach for me tomorrow, but
feel almost ashs med to ask you"
Why what is the Tnatter?" said Mr.
Moody
Why, our people have got into such a
habit of going ont before meeting is clos
ed that seems to be an imposition on
a stranger"
IF that Is all, I must and will stop and
preach for YOU was Mr.. Moody's reply.
When the Sabbath day came and Mr..
Moody had opened the meeting and nam
ed the text. he looked around the assem-
bly, and said:
MY hearers, 1 am going to speak to
two sorts Of folks-saints and sinners.
Sinners, | am going to give you a portion
first, and / would have you give good
attention"
When he had preached to them as long
as he thought best, he paused and said:
There. sinners, 1 have done with. you
now; you may take your hats and go
out of the meeting house as soon as YOU
please"
1t is needless to say the sinners tarried
and heard him through.

Co1UMR1A VS.. SHAMROCK.

The calling off of yesterdays yacht
race, while it will be an occasion of dis
appointment to many, is really a happy
circumstance in itself. Had either yacht
passed the line within the time limit in
breeze which afforded no real test of
their relative merits, the contest might
have been brought to a close, and the
result, while acceptable to Americans,
would not have been of a character to
arouse any particular enthusiasm. 1t
would have left serious doubts in the
minds of many, especially of the people
of England, as to the relative merits of
the two yachts. No such a condition as
this would be tolerable.
Of course, by the test of interna tional
yachting contests, the American people
may be said to have fully demonstrated
their easy superiority in naval archi-
lecture and in seamanship. Yet so much
expectation was centered in the perform
ances of the Shamrock that it would be
quite unfortunate were the results reach
ed in any other than the most decisive
manner. Hardly any one will hesitate
to believe that had the wind conditions
yesterday been favorable the defeat of
the Shamrock would have been quite as
complete as it was in the first contest.
Indeed, it may be said, without at all
straining the probabilities, that it is
already established that the Columbia
is a vastly superior boat to the Sham
rock, and is likely to win no matter
what conditions of weather prevail
A great deal of significance may
be said to, attach to the winning
of a clean and indisputable VIC
tory by the American yacht. We are,
now engaged in the serious discussion of
our marine interests. Congress is dis
which will replace the shipbuilders and
sailors of the United States in the posi-
ton from which they have been driven
upon the high seas. We are the abso-
relates to marine carrying. There is
hardly a nation in the world but has a
foreign marine commerce commensurate
to it's wealth and population but this
alone. We acknowledge English SUI
premacy on the high seas. Yet we es-
tablish cur own superiority as a people
III all the qualities which give. command
of the sea. The result of this yacht race
must inevitably be to emphasize the
stupid and altogether insufferable posi-
ton which the United States occupy in
marine carrying commerce. A clean-cut
victory by the Columbia in all the heats
of the contest possesses a special ma
tional value at this time

ABDUCTION OF CUPID.

One eve as Phyllis paced the paths
Within a garden green
She found a little rosy boy
Asleep beside a stream.
No clothes he wore. his curly head
Was pillowed on a culver,
Wherein were arrows long and sharp
To make poor mankind shiver.
Above him lovely Phyllis bent.
Her eyes with mischief cleaning:
About her sweet, bewitching face
Her sunny locks fell streaming.
'tAha!'' she cried in girlish glee,
eat last, you rogue, I've found you;
At last L have the darts with which
You deal such havoc round you!'
So Phyllis stole the sleeping elf.
And now within her eyes
He's prisoner, and from their depths
His love-tipped arrow flies.
And east and west and south and north
The ground is strewn with hearts.
For Phyllis has possession of
Both Cupid and his darts!

STATE wins A Land CASE
TOUCHING A CERTAIN SCHOOL
SECTION
One of Several Similar Cases Where
Settlers Have Taken Up School
Lands and According to the De-
cisiOn Have No Claim.

State Auditor Dunn yesterday received
a decision from the Duluth land office,
signed by both the receiver and register,
sustaining the states claim to a school
quarter-section upon which settlement
was claimed to have been made by a man
living at Grand Rapids. The decision is
the first in a large number of contests
which have been instituted by the state
against those who have filed on school
sections, and establishes a precedent
which will no doubt be followed by the
land department. in deciding these cases

be taken on any. lands before survey goes
through, and where it is found that the
land thus selected is state school lands,
the government gives the state the OPP
ton of selecting lands elsewhere in the
place of the sections pre-empted by set
tiers State Auditor Dunn has not been
confident of the. good faith of many of
the settlers on school lands under the
conditions named and as some of the
tracts are immensely valuable for the
timber, contests were instituted In the
Duluth district in dozen or more cases.
The states claim was prosecuted by
Assistant Attorney General DonahoWer,
and a great deal of time has been spent
by the attorney generals department Sc

The contests have all been made on the
ground that the land has not been held
as a homestead according to the require

have not acted in good faith.
State Auditor Dunn stated yesterday
that he regarded the decision as great
vicinity for the state, and in the future
the state would defend it's title to all
school lands, and that all pretended set
