Wrong Words to the Right Tunes.

All faith in modern education must 90
if many more inquisitive investigators
scratch the surface to find out how deep
ly the education has sunk in. Not long
ago DR.. Charles F. Thwing of Western
Reserve University showing that there
is an amazing lack of knowledge among
college students about the simplest facts
concerning the Bible, and now, in the
July number Of McClure's Magazine, Mr..
Marion Hill, in an article entitled The
Star Spangled Banner, Does 1t Get
Weighed or Yet Wade" puts our powers
OF belief to severe test in relating the
impressions he has found that patriotic
songs and sentiments make upon school
children.
The discovery was accidental Some
one in party of grown people had occa-
sion to quote a few lines of ''America"
and made bungle of it; he appealed to
the others and they, were unable to help
him out. So far we fear, the experience
is no uncommon one. The Words of the
Star Spangled Banner or of Fair Har-
ward" among amateur vocalists have a
curious tendency to turn to IA la la,"
particularly when the fatal high notes
begin to loom up ahead. A bright little
ten year old girl, remarkably good spell

verses. as it sounded, correctly. She
then volunteered to write them down

MORE LIVES TITAN 4 CAT
HAVE LACY's THANKSGIVING TUR-
KEYS AS FAR AS COURT
is CONCERNED
STILL ANOTHER TRIAL ON
When One Jury Failed to Agree, 1t
Was Immediately Sent Back
to Another for
Hearing.

Herbert w Lacy is again after the
st. Paul City Railway company. He is
the man who, while Fastening home with
two fine Thanksgiving turkeys, was
elected from a car at Sixth and Robert
streets, and his birds thrown out after
him. When the case was tried a few
weeks ago the jury could not agree as
to which side had the better of the ar
gument, and a new trial was consequent
ly ordered Yesterday the hearing COM
menced before Judge Lewis and a jury
Most of the afternoon was taken up
with the testimony of the plaintiff,
whose descriptive powers are of a high
order. In moving terms he recounted
how, after having transferred himself
and the precious turkeys to an interur-
ban car, which he hoped would speedily
convey him to his home, he was accosted
by the motorman and conductor, and,
after brief parley, thrown out bodily.
His first thought, on picking himself up,
appears to have been a resolve to save
his feathered baggage at all cost. He
accordingly attempted to board the enc
nly's stronghold again, but was met with
heavy blow in the face, administered
by the burly motOrman. He was all but
out. but still CROPPED forward in quest Of
his Thanksgiving trophies. Again the
motorman uppercut him, and this time he
rolled backward, completely knocked out
He remembered nothing for a long time,
and when he did come to he was still
groggy. The boys informed him that
his nose was broken, and that he was
otherwise grievously hurt. He was taken
home, and whether he was able to regaIe
himself on the turkeys for which he had
put up SO valorous a fight, did not APP
pear from the evidence
He claims that inasmuch as the con-
ductor on the South Robert street car,
Sal, L.
birds as legitimate baggage, and gave
him transfer check to an interurban
car, he was entitled to regard his freight
as wholly unobjectionable. In any event,
he commended he was entitled to polite
treatment at the hands of the employees
of the company.
Several other witnesses corroborated
the evidence of the plaintiff, one of them
having himself been elected at the same
time, simply because he had with him an
inoffensive< and unobtrusive duck, also a
trophy of the rattle.

SAVES THE STATE 5 MONEY
AIS APPLIED BY ATTORNEY
GENERAL
RAMSEY GETS $4,000 AT ONCE.
One Individual Will Have to Pre-
sent a Check for Five Fig
ures to Redeem His
Property.

Attorney General Douglas yesterday
afternoon rendered an opinion that in
order to redeem property sold at tax
sales the redeemer must pay all the taxes
due, and interests and costs. The dec:-
sion is of wide Importance and will save
the state thousands of dollars. There is
not o. county where money will not be
saved. In Ramsey alone there is one man
who will have to pay $4,000 more than
he would otherwise have had to pay if
the decision had not been rendered.
The supreme court recently decided
that chapter 322 of the laws of 1899, pro-
viding for an absolute sale of land for the
taxes for 1885 and prior years. did not
operate to cut the right of a sixty days
notice of the time of the expiration of
the period of redemption.
The question was then submitted by
the state auditor as to whether the
owner of land might redeem by paying
the purchase price at the tax sale, or the
full amount of the taxes, interests and
costs.
1t is many months since an opinion of
like Importance has been rendered. Said
Attorney General Douglas yesterday:
Ramsey, Hennepin and other populous
counties particularly will feel the effect
of the decision. 1t is impossible to tell
exactly how much will be saved the state
but the aggregate will be considerable. 7"

And the Campbell Company Was Not
Playing the Races, Either.

before Judge: Kelly and jury in the dis
trict court. The w. M. Campbell Co.,

BISHOP TO HIS FLOCK.
LETTER FROM BISHOP wHIPPIE
TO EPISCOPAL CHURCHES.

Bishop Fl. B. Whippie, Episcopal bishop
OF Minnesota, who is ROW in Maitland
Fla, has sent the following communica
uon to all the Episcopal churches in his
diocese:
I'VE are keeping the last Advent season
OF the nineteenth century-almost two
thousand years since our Lord and Savior
came to bring to weary, s:n-sick wo~ld
TIE glad t1dings of redemption. No cent
ury of the worlds history has witnessed
such material progress in all that ele.
Yates and blesses the children of orr
Heavenly Father. 1t seems a dream.
that where we now hear the busy hum
OF industry, the whistling steam car, I
used to drive my faithful BashaW three
thousand miles each year over the will
prairies to tell our border settlers ths
story of our Heavenly Fathers love.
one hundred years ago there were no
railways, no steamships, no te,egraphs
no inventions to tighten human toll save
the hand loom ard the overshot water
wheel.
More marvellous has been the progress
of the kingdom of Jesus Christ, our
rlGhttul king. Fast-closed doors have
been opened, irpenetrab,e barriers
broken down, until the whole world Is
open for the messengers of Christian
civilization. / do not forget the long line
of martyrs and Observation-Disclosures
Patterson, livingston and a host Of
others-but not one died in vain. This
last ortburst of satanic rage IN China
will surely bring redemption.
This is the forty second year of my
episcopate. 1t is eventide. My heart
longs to complete all the work my Father
gave me to do. Until our schools and
diocese are endowed, my only resource
is in loving friends who have been my
helpers. Never have my hands been SO
bUsy-never my heart so full. 1 shall be
deeply grateful if you will generously a.
me in Our missions, the education of the
daughters Of. our missioners and the
training of brave men to preach the
gospel You know that love all who
love Jesus Christ and those for whom
He died. For your help 1 give you my
love, my Blessing and my prayers, and
GOD will surely repay ALL
