.HUSTLINC FOR MEMBERS
Y. NJ. C. A. ENTHUSIASTS ARE PROS
ECUTING AN ACTIVE CAMPAIGN.

The earnest effort of the officers and
members of the Y. M. G. A. to secure
during the holiday season the largest
membership in the Northwest should
meet with the hearty support of St. Paul
citizens. The association is a perfect bee
hive of activity. Constantly, since the
opening, four years ago, 1t has increased
not only in membership, but IN its USE
fulness TO the city. Every night its
school rooms are crowded with young
men who are ambitious to fit themselves
for better service to their employers.
There are literally hundreds of men
using the gymnasium every twenty-four
hours, and the employment of many
thousands of bath towels every month
proves the popularity and usefulness of
this feature of the association. The rec
reation and social departments make it
impossible for young men to excuse them
selves with the plea that they spend
their leisure hours in places of evil in
f1uence because there is no place Of
amusement under innocent auspices open
to them.
The plan of dividing the membership
into two sides to see which side can
secure the greater number of members
during the thirty days. beginning to-
morrow evening, is arousing much inter
est and enthusiasm. The first effort will
be to get parents, employers and friends
to make Christmas and New Year pres
ents of years membership in the as
ISOLATION. For this purpose handsome
holiday membership card has been pre-
pared, good from Jan. /, 1902, to JAN L,
1903. This plan has been tried in some
other large cities with splendid results.
In one city a large retail firm sends in
a check for $500 each New Years day
with an order for 100 membership cards
for its male employees. The fact that
many employers have done this every
holiday season for term of years
proves that they consider it good in
vestment, as well as a most acceptable
way of helping institution that has
proved so indispensable to our large
cities 1t is difficult to conceive Of q
holiday gift costing the same amount
which will give more satisfaction and
be of-greater value to a young man than
years membership in an institution
like the Y NJ C. A., which has won
the admiration of the best business men
in the city, who are proud to be counted
among its more than 1000 members.

SEIDENKRANz VERDICT
CORONER,s JURY PLACES BLAME
ON RAILROAD COMPANIES.

Coroner A. w. Miller and jury held
an inquest yesterday afternoon in the
case of the death of Edward Seiden-
kranz, who was killed by a 500 train
near Como last Sunday evening. After
being out nearly three hours the jury
brought in a verdict that he came to
his death through the neglect of the rail-
road company or companies in not having
a competent Waterman at the crossing
where he was killed The jury also
recommended that in view Of the fact
that several accidents have happened at
this crossing the railroad company
should bridge it as an extra precaution
against any more accidents.

consideration when the purchase is being
made. The berries on commission row
are the real thing and are no hot house
incubator article. They were grown on
the sunny hills of California, and the soft
sea breezes and the scent of new mown
hay have been blown into them, giving
them d most appetizing complexion and
an aroma that passes all understanding.
The berries are in their prime, as they
have been rushed through from the coast
and placed on the market ripe, with no
danger of their spelling with the present
atmospheric surroundings.
