POETS OF CHILDHOOD
DIR. BURTON TELLS WHAT HE
KNOWS ABOUT THEM.

With ssPoets of Childhood" for his
topic, Dr. Richard Burton last evening
afforded a highly appreciated entertain
ment to a large audience which was COM
posed almost entirely of women. Ills re-
marks were more frequently than in some
of his previous lectures fnterspersei with
readings from the authors of whom he
spoke.
He divided the poetry Of childhood into
two principal classes, those of true heart
interest and seriousness, and those in
which the subjects were dealt with upon
the plane of childhood. He read from
the we'll known works of Tennyson, Whit
tier, Longfellow. Robert Louis Stevenson,
James Whitcomb Riley, and from num-
Der of more obscure poets, some of whose
writings he commended in high terms.

SCORES SECRET SOCIETIES.
District Secretary of National Chris
tan Association Delivers Lecture.

District Secretary OF National ChriS-
tian Association Delivers Lecture.
The district secretary of the National
Christian association, Rev. w. Fenton,
delivered lecture in the German Luz
theran seminary yesterday afternoon on
the ''Wild beast which the prophet John
saw coming upsout of the sea (Rey xiii,
1-10), and its resemblance to the secret
empire, embracing Free Masonry and It's
kindred secrerosocieties.'
In regard to the beast, the lecturer
takes the position taken by nearly all
Bible commentators, namely. that the
beast symbolizesi the pagan Roman
empire-DanieFs fourth kingdom
Its resemblance TO the secret en-
pre-" said he Consists mainly in that
they both worship and receive their
power and authority from the devil. Both
are .anti-Christ and destitute Of any re-
semblance to Christianity. The secret
empire rejects Christ even from Bible
quotations in its rituals. Both have their
origin in ancient Egyptian Freemason-
Ty,'. and both seek the destruction of
Christianity"
The students manifested much inter-
est in the subject. and remained after
the lecture to converse with the lecturer
and purchase books.

SPLITTING ON STREETS
DIR. oHAGE SAYS ExPECFOR.ATING
CAUSES TUBERCULOSIS.

DR.. Ohage thinks the only way to stop
the spread of tuberculosis is to enforce
the anti-spitting ordinance. The disease
is so common, he says. that in St. Paul
alone, he is willing to venture, one In
every fifty persons is afflicted.
The practice of expectorating promis-
cuously has become so general that many
think 1t an infringement upon their per-
sonal liberty to be called to account for
1t, but DR.. Ohage thinks the disease
will never be wholly eradicated until the
habit Is overcome.

The stone saw mill, belonging to James
A. Young & Sons, stone contractors, at
the foot of Chestnut street, on the upper
1evee. was totally. destroyed by fire at
$50 o'clock last night. 1t is not known
how the blaze originated, but it is thought
to have been caused by sparks from a
stove The workmen left the mill at $50,
and at $50 Officer Ansley saw flames is
suing from the building and turned in an
alarm. The loss to the building and the
machinery it contained and which was
also rendered useless, is estimated at
$4,000
The firm did not have any insurance
on either the building or contents. The
work for the season was over, and the

the winter. The mill will be rebuilt in
time for the opening of the building sea-

While No. 1 hose cart was going to
the fire, from Ninth and Fort streets,
the cart struck an obstruction at Eagle

upset. Joseph Devine, who was driving,
was thrown to the ground and the horses
ran away. They turned down Chestnut
street and were caught at the foot of
the street, near the river. A hind wheel
ran over one of Mr.. Devine's feet and
injured it slightly; but he will be able to
be at his post again in two or three
days. The hose. cart was badly dam
aged, but the horses escaped injury.

CAUSED BY A HEMoRRHAGE

Harry X. Irvine, a son of G. G. Irvine,
general manager of the American Ex-
press company in ST. Paul. died suddenly
at his home, 313 Jackson street about
o'clock last night. Death resulted from
hemorrhage. Mr.. Irvine was employed
by the American Express company, in
the freight department, and was coming
home from work when, on reaching the

BARTON IS DEPOSED
DEMOCRATIC CITY AND COUNTY
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
TAKES DECISIVE ACTION
cHAs. MCDONALD EXPELLED
He Does Not Represent Democratic
Opinion in Sixth Ward-F1em-
ing Elected to Bar
toms Place.

Humphrey Barton has been .depoSed
from the craftsmanship of the Democratic
city and county executive committee and
Charles Mcdonald of the Sixth ward, has
been removed from membership. This
action was taken at a meeting held last
evening at Federation hall, Wabasha and
Third streets. .r.1s
There was full representation of the
committee membership of twenty-one
Edward Peterson having been elected
chairman of the Second ward committee
in place of James Fellows, now out of the
city, and John E. Samuelson, law partner
of Humphrey Barton being present on
proxy from A. r. Fenwick
T. A. Pike, vice chairman of the COM
mittee called the meeting to order, and
presided during the early portion of the
proceedings. The question of removing
Mr.. Barton from office was first taken up
and as it had already been thoroughly
considered and practically done at a
previous meeting, there was not great
deal of time spent in discussion. Resolu.
lions declaring the Office of chairman OF
the committee vacant were adopted by a
vote of 70 to Z
C. A! Fleming, of tie Tenth ward, was
then chosen chairman, there being no OPP
position.
Scott lamar; secretary of the com
mittee, who is a close friend Of Mr.. Bar
ton, rendered his resignation, which was.
accepted, and M. r. Kane, of the Seventh
ward was elected to. succeed him.
The case of Mr.. Mcdonald, iof the Sixth
ward, occupied considerable time and long
arguments were made en- both sides. It
was first suggested; that since he had
taken the stand which he had at the re-
cent meeting in the Sixth ward against
the present Democratic administrator,
Mr.. Mcdonald could not be either con-
genial or loyal member of this committee
and should be asked to resign Thereupon
Mr.. Mcdonald stated plainly that he
would not resign and would protest
against his removal in case the committee
should take that course, ss
1t was argued by several members that
since he had practically declared that he
would work against certain persons in
case they should be nominated by the
Democratic party, Mr. Mcdonald should
not be permitted to remain in an i'm
portant executive position in the party,
which, under certain circumstances he
would be willing to repudiate.
A B. Hendrickson, Of the Sixth ward,
was present and said that the ward or
ganization did not support the stand
taken by Mr. Mcdonald, but on the. con-
trary, condemned it and desired 1t to be
understood that he was solely responsible.
After the question had been thoroughly
discussed, q vote was taken on the ques-
ton of removing Mr.. Mcdonald from the
committee, which showed a result of u
to 8 in favor of his removal.
The vacancy caused by the removal Of
Mr. Mcdonald will be filed by election
of the Sixth ward committee.

Next Month.

''To the vietors belong the spoils" will
be an obsolete expression in municipal
politics if a proposition now before the
charter commission receives favorable
consideration and is similarly received
by the voters at the next spring election.
The proposition is the creation of an
amendment to the charter giving life
and authority to an institution to be
known as a civil service commission.
Norman Fetter, who is Gathering the
scheme, is of the opinion that it would
furnish the city with a set of employees
free from political influences and not
subservient to every incoming admins
tration.
The idea of such commission was
brought UP at the meeting of the char
ter commission last evening, and inn
pressed itself upon tie members to the
extent that Mr.. Fetter was made a
committee of one to look into the mat
ter and report upon its feasibility at the
next meeting, one month hence.

a strange sensation in the region of his

mometer to officially confirm his i'm
preston that it was really cold. The
thermometer was the chief object of at
traction in the city. The official looking
tall ones in glass cases drew good
crowds, which startled the corner copper
into believing that a fight was in prog

know that the government weather

WAS TOO EXPENSIVE
CAR sWEEPERs GET TOO BUSY
FOR STATES GOOD.

AS a result of investigations carried on
by the railroad and warehouse commits
sion, a radical order was yesterday issued
by the commission 1equinng the chief
weigamaster to withdraw from service
every deputy weighmaster detailed to
service III such elevators as permit "car
sweepers'' upon the premises. The COM
nissiors, from it's investigations, con-
Guided that the order was the only effect
i've remedy for the system of grain steal
ing which these sweepers indulge in. The
railroad companies and elevator people
have been in the habit of giving these
sweepers permission to sweep out the
grain cars after they have been unloaded
The commission has good reason to be-
lieve that the sweepers have been in the.
nabie of breaking into cars before they
are unloaded and stealing grain there
from. The investigation developed the
fact that many of the sweepers earned
over $500 a month. 1t IS said that one
case was discovered where a sweeper
had sold over 5000 bushels of flax in two
months. Other fragrant cases Were dis
covered
