Salvation Army Gave a Grand
 Dinner in New York
THE GREATEST CHRISTMAS OF ALL
Thouqh There Was the Usual List of Crimes the Day Was Most Hap- piIy Spent in Every Part
 of the Country.

New York December 25-One of the chief features of Christmas Day in New York City and its vicinity was the weather Not only was the sky clear in all directions save to the southwest, where heavy clouds acted as background to the glorious sun- shine, but the rays of the sun after o'clock in the morning were so genial that heavy wraps were uncomfortable and furs could not be endured. The consequence of this almost springlike weather was that the churches and streets were crowded
 It is estimated that more money was spent on Christmas gifts this year in New York than ever before, and the same is true in regard to charitable Ifts. It was only because a case of Restitution was kept hidden that the unfortunates were not sup piled with Christmas cheer.
 Of all the set Christmas feasts that of the Salvation Army at Madison Square Garden this evening was the largest.
 A bountiful Christmas dinner was served to about four thousand men, women and children The cost was defrayed from a fund of about $SO00 collected by the army.
 All afternoon 400 helpers were busy laying the fifty tables and preparing the food to make good cheer for this army of the city's poor, and probably no happier Christmas could have been found in the city. Men and women drawn from all walks of life into the ranks of the Salvation Army were eagerly enjoying the pleasure of bringing Christmas cheer to others, and one of the happiest of this 400 was tine grandson of the late Arch bishop Trench of Canterbury. new re- cruit, who made merry as he peeled pota- toes
 A Grand Rush.
 When the gallery doors of the garden were opened at o'clock there was rush that required vigorous efforts on the part of a score of policemen to prevent the lit- tie ones who were in the crowd from being - hurt, By o'clock there were 4OOO people in the galleries waiting in jolly mood for the dinner. while the helpers in the arena below were serving out the good things provided. Promptly at 6 o'clock the Sal vaton Army's guests were marched down to the tables and took their places after the doxology had been sung to the accom- paniment of the headquarters brass band. Then. for three-quarters of an hour the spectators in the balcony saw a rare sight as 5000 of the poor reveled in bounteous Christmas dinner After the first relief had finished the tables were reset for the other 1000
 After the dinner the headquarters brass band struck up Onward, Christian Sol diers," and the great crowd joined in the hymn with vigor, and then Commander Booth-Tucker made an address.
 Five hundred newsboys enjoyed the Christmas feasts at the Newsboys' Home on Duane street this evening.
 The Christmas distribution of gifts took place at the home on Saturday night. Ev- cry boy received present of a sweater. Those who had studied hard at the homes night school earned a suit of feece-lined underwear.

FOR Observation-Disclosures
CHARLES HOGAN.

The BELGRADE legislative con-
vention in session today nominated
Edward Charles Hogan of New
Paynesville for representative. Ex-
tended comment at this time is
impossible, bat to introduce him to
the voters of this district the HER
AID would merely say: Mr. Hogan
was born in Spring Hill in 1872,
his father was the late Capt. M. j.
Hogan and his mother is a Ger
man. Mr. Hogan speaks both Eng
lish and German with equal flu
ency. For years he was associ-
ated with his father in business in
Spring Hill, operating a general
store. After his fathers death and
the settlement of the estate, Mr..
Hogan engaged in business at
Brooten, in addition to the Spring
Hill business, and later moved to
Paynesviiie, where he is now run
ming two stores-ftlrnishing goods
and boots and shoes in one, and
dry goods and groceries in the
other. He is a successful young
business man, respected, and es.
teemed by all who know him, and
his circle of friends is large. He is
a strong candidate and there is
every indication that he will be
elected. He is a ruStler.

The Lloyd g. Gay company.

Much was expected of the Lloyd &
Gay theatrical company, for it's lead
ing members were favorably known
here by reason of several former
visits. Mr.. Lloyd has, on a number of
occasions played second parts here
with the Sanford Dodge company, and
Messrs. Gay add Shakespeare and
Miss Muncy had also appeared with
the same ompany, and had won scores
of friends. Mr.. Lloyd demonstrated
the fact. in "a Celebrated Case, y that
he is quite comp tent to carry the
leading part OF an intense drama,
and the support given HIM by an even
~ balanced company was excellent.
There was not a single, character in
the play. who was less or more Than
was necessary to give best effects.
The lights and shades of the piece
were brought out sharply, and appar-
emily without effort. MIR Gay, the
comedian of the company, as ever,
gave complete satisfaction doing
without OVERRIDING. Mr.. Lloyd is fine,
an1 Miss Muncy the leading lady is a
true artist. Little Bessie Jackson,
while perhaps not an infantile prodigy,
is certainly very clever in her special
ties, and won hearty applause.
The fact of making special mention
of these by no means indicates that
the other members of the company
we're in any way inferior in the parts
for which they were cast. They all did
conscientious work, and contributed
their full share to the success of the
entertainment. The house was well
filled and every encouragement given
for repeated visits.

altogether favorable. 1t is a clear

Truelsen Speaks.

Henry Truelsen of Duluth, demo-
cratic candidate for congress from this
district, addressed good audience at
the Graud opera house on Thursday
night. He is fairly fluent speaker,
with strong German accent. He
confined his remarks to two planks of
the national platform-imperialism
and trusts. To be sure he did not de-
fine what he meant by Imperialism
none of them debut he thought the
administration is all wrong in dealing
with the Philippines, but suggested
nothing practical to take the place of
the present policy, and none of them
do.
He denounced trusts, but failed to
explain why the democrats IN congress
voted solidly against submitting
constitutional amendment giving con-
gress power to legislate against them
Ia power which everybody knows
does not now exist. AS to how trusts
are to be controlled. without this
power, he was as silent as the grave.
In short he Offered nothing of
or positive character
nothing but The old democratic howl
am against anything and everying,
right or wrong. which any republican
administration fagors. He not only
made no votes here, but he failed to
,tiffen up the weak ones within his
own party.

The first automobile ever seen in
this city passed through on Saturday
afternoon, on it's way from Minneapo-
lie to Wahpeton. 1t was a steam
driven vehicle made at Tarrytown, N.
Y, and sold by the Northwestern We
hicle Co., the agents, to q physician
at Wahpeton. The fuel used in gen.
Grating steam is gasoline, and the
working pressure is $50 pounds. The
carriage, which is not unlike an open
phaeton in appearance, will run from
ten to twelve miles an hour, depending
upon the character of the roads. 1t
can be run sixty miles with tank of
gasoline, and it costs about cent a
mile for fuel. At this point B. Willis
How boarded the vehicle with the man
who had it in charge, and made the
trip to Osakis with him. The roads
were pretty rough in places, and the
sixteen miles were covered in an hour
and MISREPRESENTATION nine miles
an hour. It was under perfect con-
troll, Mr.. How operating it most of the
way. It attracted a great deal OF at
tention on the streets of this city.
