and much more because the program
for the evening is one of the most de-
lightful that could we'll have been chos-
en-. Tuesday evening the young people
of the parish, some of the old folk, and
some of the very little folk too, will go
to Minnetonka, partake of a splendid
banquet which the ladies of the parish,
will have spread at the Spring Park
pavilion, and later all will be invited
to have a sail on the great lake. The
steamer Tonka, barge and two smaller
boats have been chartered to take the
pleasure seekers on an excursion of the
lake. An orchestra will play program
Of music for dancing, and ices and con-
fections will be served for the refresh
ment of the merrymakers. But all need
not go on the boat to find enjoyment; a
second orchestra will be stationed
throughout the evening at the pavilion
where music for dancing will be played
for those who prefer to remain on shore.
Arrangements have been made to enter
tain 1000 guests, and it is not doubted
that fully that many will attend. The
excursionists will leave the Union depot
at 6:3o, and make the trip to Spring
Park on the Great Northern train. Sew
en- o'clock is the hour set for supper,
and at 8 o'clock it is expected that every
one wishing the moonlight sail will be
ready to embark on the Tonka and at
tendant boats. A feature OF the outing
which appeals very strongly to many is
the extreme reasonableness OF the ex-
pense. The entire pleasure trip and the
supper may be enjoyed for IS cents.

Mckinley champions imperialism and
works for an aristocracy of money at
the expense OF the people.
Bryan opposes the trusts which rob
the people, enslave workingmen and
competition.
Mckinley fosters and protects the
trusts regardless of the people and uses
all his influence to make the rich richer
which has also the result OF making the
poor poorer
Bryan has practical plan to restrain
the trusts, and if elected president he
will put it into execution.
Mckinley has no plan to restrain
trusts, and ii he did have such plan, the
trust managers, who own him body and
soul, would not allow him to enforce it.
Which OF these two men would best
serve the people as president?
There is no choice between them
Bryan stands for all the people desire
in the way OF justice and protection.
Mckinley represents the trusts and I'M
perialism and ignores the people.
The people are going to elect presi-
dent next autumn. Will they put a
friend or an enemy in the White House?

PRACTICAL PATRIOTISM.
An Editorial on q Letter from Bishor
McGOlrlck,

The following leading article from the
Dublin Nation on Bishop McGolrick' S
letter i'll reference to technical education
in Ireland will be read with interest by
the readers of the Irish Standards:
The letter which the Very Rev. Dean
White, the patriotic and devoted pastor
OF Nenagl, has received from his friend.
the Most Rev. Dr. McGolrick, bishop of
Duluth, Minnesota, and which we now
publish, is, as the dean truly remarks in
his covering communication to us, one
| which is certain to interest the majority
OF our readers. 1t will be remembered
that Dean White has been absolutely the
first amongst the clergy Of Ireland to
take practical steps to apply for the
benefit OF the people under his ccclcsias-
teal control the provisions OF the Agri-
culture and Technical Instruction act.
Almost Immediately after the passage
into law OF the measure named, Dean
White proceeded to establish a system
OF technical instruction and to found a
technical school in Ncnagh. 1t is knowl-
edge OF the work in which he is engaged
which has drawn from the gifted Irish
American prc1atc the remarkable letter
which Dean White sends lis for publ.
cation 1t will be seen that DR.. Nc
Golrick bears testimony to the fact that,
while the Irish artisan is, in the majority
of cases, vastly the superior in actual
manual dcxtcrity of the many foreign
competitors whom he encounters in the
battle for existence in the United States,
he is generally surpassed by the latter
in the possession of the class Of knowl-
edge which enables the scientific appli-
cation Of such skill as his. The result is,
of course, that the German, the Nor
wcgian, or the Swcde, who have enjoyed
in their own countries the benefits Of
splendid systems OF technical education,
soon come to occupy higher places in
the industrial organizations of America
than the Irish artisans, who are really

A PICNIC AT MINNEHAHA
Under the Auspices of Members o.
ST. Stephen,s Parish.

An excellent program is being pre-
pared for the annual summer outing OF
St. Stephens church. which will take
place Wednesday afternoon and evening
at Minnefalla Park. The committee
which has the affair in charge includes
men and women whose ability to plan
and carry out entertainments of this
kind has been amply proven in the past.
Father Fitzpatrick, pastor OF St. Ste
phcns church, has general supervision
OF the committees work The choice Of
picnic ground was happy one. Min
nehaha is SO favorably known locally,
and SO convenient to residents of the
city, that any event announced for that
place is sure to be we'll attended. Even
as at former festivals held by ST. Ste
phen's people, Wednesdays event will
be in every respect parish affair." Men
and women, young and old, and all the
children, are expected to participate in
the merrymaking. In and about the To-
cality OF historic Minnchal1a Falls Il
pleasurable and profitable afternoon
may be spent. Even ii you have been
there once, twice or many times before,
many visits indeed may be made before
discovering all the charms OF beautiful,
romantic Minnehaha. To the juvenile
visitor to Minnehaha, the menagerie,
with its varied collection OF strange ami
mails and birds, is sure TO prove OF keen
interest. And should his more mature
relatives choose to visit the gorgeous
peacock, the gentle deer, the simmer
ing eels, they, too, will doubtless give
enthusiastic admiration 10 the curious
family in the museum. The numerous
merry-go-rounds and the Shetland po-
MES are among the permanent attrac-
tons of the park by the Falls. But ST.
Stephens picnic will have many special
features of amusement There will be
ball games, foot races, tug OF war, in
which both old and young may enter in
friendly rivalry. The children will be
given attention, and games for their par
ticular enjoyment have been arranged.
Music, too, will add to the general JOY
business of the day. A string orchestra
will play popular airs during the after
noon and evening
Refreshing drinks and dainty edibles
will be served afternoon visitors, and
between 6 and 8 o'clock a substantial
dinner will be spread on improvised
tables beneath the trees. That St. Ste
pfen's festival day will be splendid
success is assured by the interest which
the entire parish is taking in the event.
Being social function more than a
financial scheme, tickets have been
placed at the nominal price of IS cents.
This amount will pay for the entire en-
tertainment including dinner.

five years continued in that line. He
probably constructed more buildings in
this city than any other one man. His
last work was the erection OF the Syndi-
cate block on Nicollet avenue, Of which
he was one OF the originators and own
ers. AS dealer in real estate he was
unusually successful, and in all his long
and useful career his integrity was un-
questioned. He soon became noted for
his prudence and foresight, and the peo-
pie elected him many times to fill places
OF trust and responsibility. He was for
ID years a member OF the Minneapolis
school board, and it was owing to his
efforts and persstency that the Central
high school was erected. He was men,

:. DEATH OF A:PIoNEER.

came as the result of old age. On Nov.

of 80, having been resident of Mime

development OF the city for the past
forty-fve years.
Mr. Grimshaw was born in the city Of

that business on account OF defective
sight. He afterwards mastered the car

who referred to the man from Canton
as "magnanimous Mckinley" Now
comes the New York Independent and
calls him methodist Mckinley" and
implies that because he is Il Methodist
he is magnanimous. II it were not for
his frmncss, says the New York paper,
the larger part of the church property
