one when once established and In
working order. The Brookings Hos.
pital has been success almost from
the start and the acquisition Of this
valuable patronage was deemed es-
sential in the establishment of an in
stitution OF the size and proportions
suited to the ideas Of an order OF sue b
prominence as Mother Joseph repre-
sents.
We are informed that plans for a
building are already In the hands Of
competent architects and that the
work will be pushed to completion as
fast as possible. 1t is the intention
to make this hospital one Of the best
Ia the northwest and with that end
In view the building will be built Of
brick, two stores aud basement,
which will be equipped with all the
modern appliances and conveniences
for such an institution. 1t will be
wired for electricity, heated by steam
and supplied with water and sewerage.
In fact Brookings will soon have a
hospital not excelled by anything Of
the kind Ia the state.
The importance of such an institu-
tion cannot be overestimated. AS an
advertisement, as convenience, or
from any point Of view 1t presents ad-
vantages to rapidly growing city
that we can well afford to foster. As
is we'll known, the sisters are right at
home In work of this character and
fortunate indeed is the sufferer who
can be nursed and restored to health
under their kind ministrations.

carry the highest steam pressure al.

lighting consists of twenty-five 25 C. p.
and -four SO c. p. series lamps, two
81 C. p. multiple lamps, and five series
open arc lamps, covering thirty-six
street intersections. The service has
been intermittent for some time be-
cause Of inability of steam plant to

Twelve houses are wired but not

Law. Passed by Recent Legislature
Prevents His Appearance in Jus
tice Courts-Will Appeal Case.

By a decision Of Judge Peter Lochrie
yesterday, Frank G. Luke, manager of
the Merchants Protective association,
was refused the right to appear for a
client and was barred from legal prac-
tice in. the justice court of the First
precinct, over which Judge Lochrie
presided. The judge decided that Luke,
not being a member of the bar or d
recognized attorney, could not, under
the statutes, practice in d justice court
OF a city of the first class. The ques-
ton OF Luke's right to practice was
raised by Attorney b e Of the firm
Of Pierce, CritchIOw & Be rette, when
motion vas made to dismiss the civil
case Of RJIt VS.. Andrews, in which the
former is suing the latter Tor $3.50 al
legged to be due him. Luke appeared for
plaintiff ana MI Barrette FOR the de-
Tense. When Mr.. Luke undertook to
take a part in the matter NJ. Barrette
objected, and presented the law passed
by the last legislature in support of his
objections. he called attention to the
fact that the laws of the state provided
that no person not a legally recognized
lawyer could appear as an attorney in
8 legal action unless the person were
a party TO The action. Judge LOchrie
decided that the objection made by Mr.
Esarrette was q valid one and held that
Luke could not practice in his court.
The decision was a big surprise to
Mr. Luke, and he attacked the cOnsti-
tutiOnality of the statute. He said that
he believed it was class legislation and
should be tested. Judge Lochrie sug-
gested that the matter be appealed to
a higher court and it is said that such
VIII be done. The mO-iOn TO dismiss
the case was held over until Luke
could secure a recognized attorney to
represent him.
