To Visit Rome,

Bishop Trobec of the diocese OF
St. Cloud has written pastoral let
ter to the priests of his diocese. 1t
appears in the current issue of
Der Nordstern and in it the bishop
makes the first public declaration OF
his intention to pay visit this year
to Rome, the spat of the government
OF the Catholic church.
Bishop Trobec calls the attention
OF the priests of his diocese t., the
fact that three days OF this week
have been set aside as special days
OF prayer and meditation and he ad-
vises the priests to exhort the people
OF their floeks to pray for better
weather conditions and the fall of
rain. which is 80 badly needed by the
grains of central Minnesota. On
Pentecost the collection for the pope
is taken and Bishop Trobec tells his
people that he will take this to Rome
personally present it to His Higbness
the pope, with a prayer for the pa
pal henediction for his diocese.

make it positive that unless there

some of the smaller lakes will furnish

4 Grand Lecture.

4 Grand Lecture.
A fair sized audience heard Prof.
Maria Sanford of the state univers-
ity lecture on The Study of Litera,
ture" at the Congregational church
Monday night.
Miss Sadie Barton, president Of
the Shakesperean Ethics club, intro
duced the lecturer in some neat and
appropriate remarks. Miss Sanford
interested her hearers from the start.
Her dignifled and noble presence, her
easy and graceful speech, and the
strong enthusiasm she manifested in
setting forth the ideals Of a student
OF good literature. won the audience.
Sincerity in belief, and thorough ap-
probation of that in literature which
purif}es the mind and elevetes the
soul. were the keynotes Of Miss San
ford's address.
In beginning the speaker touched
on the marvellous invention
of the written or spoken word and
what the preservation of the
thoughts Of men had meant to those
coming after them. The words of
men who were dead ages before the
time OF Christ still live, potent to
mould the minds of men and to exert
influence on nation. Great authors
are the products of the struggles and
trials and upreachings of centuries
behind them. Where people have
lived intensely there literattre is
greatest, and among the greatest of
literature is that written in the Eng-
lish tongue.
Miss Sanford emphasized the i'm
portance of beginning early in train
ing the young to love good literat-
ure. To read good books, to let the
| mind dwell upon beautiful thoughts,
is TO have the mind influenced by
those thoughts. A liking for good
Literature should be instilled into the
minds of the young and it will be
one of their best possessions. Miss
Sanford gave illustrationa from diff
ferent authors to illustrate the
points OF her address, and showed
great dramatic and Evolutionary
power in her renderings. Among the
aathora quoted and from whose
works characteristic selections Zwere
I fKipling, Charles Hackay; Whittier
lsnto~, Hume,ss; urne, Bls'sl
Harte and Holiness The readings
which closed the lecture were very
much enjoyed.
The lecture was an inspiring tne,
and gave the hearers q more
thorough understand of the quantity
Of mental and moral richness to be
found in English literature. The
Shakesperean Ethics club is to be
commended for bringing Miss San
ford before our people and all who
heard the gifted lady will hope to
hear her speak again in this city.

Quit the Game.

The base ball game Sunday ended
badly-the Royalton club quitting in the
fifth inning when the score was to 0 in
favor OF Little Falls. because displeaeed
at the decision Of the umpire. Up to
this time the game was going we'll, the
players on both sides playing pretty
fair bali. With one man out, and MUIR
ply of the Royaltons ct third, Galley
batted grounder, which was caught
by Gravel, who sent the ball to Bour-
assa at first, putting out Galley. Bour-
assa threw to home plate, and the utn.
pire declared Murphy ont, retiring the
Royaltons. Immediately there was
trouble. The Royalton players took
the advice of their manager, Mr.. Wilson.
to quit at once, and did go without even
waiting for an explanation, or consult
ing the local manager, Mr.. Emder. MIR.
Emder was engaged in restoring
young lady who had tainted, and knew
nothing about the trouble till the team
had gone. Although there is difference
OF opinion as to whether the umpire was
right or not. the evidence appears
mostly in his favor Up to this time
there had been no complaint about the
umpire's rulings. To quit the game in
this manner, without consulting the
local manager, without an attempt to
adjust the differences, is a proceeding
which reflects no credit on Manager Will
son OF the Royaltons, as all allunprejudiced
people will admit. 1t il unfortunate that
occurrences of this kind should mar the
national game, aud it is hoped that no
incident like it will occur again.
