Philharmonic Hope to Secure Hall
in Connection With the
New Nicollet.
If This Is Not Practicable, a Near
By Downtown Site Is
Suggested.

The Philharmonic club met at the Com
mercial club this afternoon and gave fur
Their consideration to the several plans
advanced whereby it is expected that
Minneapolis will have a fine new hall for
the accommodation of large gatherings.
Among the recent plans proposed is that
which contemplates the construction of a
large hall in connection with the pro-
posed new Hotel Nicollet block. J. F.
Conkl1n, who is prominent in the Hotel
N1collet enterprise, has already been ap-
preached with the music hall proposition,
and has promised to give the matter
his earnest consideration. The new hotel
is to cover a solid half block, fronting on
three principal streets, and will be six to
eight stories in height It is believed by
the supporters of this plan that ample
space could be arranged in the big struc-
ture to accommodate music hall of suf-
ficient dimensions 7,
Another plan which has met with some
favor is that which seeks to induce the
holders of the property adjoining the
N1collet house frontage on Nicollet ave-
nue., to substitute a large building for the
two-story structures which have almost
outl1ved their usefulness. The promoters
Of this enterprise believe that a combined
auditorium, office and store building at
that point in conjunction with that new
hotel building, would prove a big paying
investment. - Il .-
The auditorium committee which also
met at dinner at the Commercial club to-
day Is still interested in several conven-
ton hall plans, which were informally dis
cuSSed. Members of the club have not
yet abandoned the idea Of erecting a COM
binatlon music and convention hall.

TO THE. JEW
Subject of Sermon by Rev. G.. L. Nor
rill at Chicago Avenue Baptist
Church Yesterday.

Rev. G. L. Morrill, spoke on Justice to
the Jew at the Chicago Avenue Baptist
church, yesterday morning. He said, in
part:
The Jew is vine on the trellis work of ma
lions, divinely planted and protected, to be
eradicated.
In patriotism, poetry. philosophy, music, math
ematics, law, literature, art and science he
stands in the front rank Of nations. His past
humiliation is equaled by the height of his pres
ty is decent; in the home he Is loving: in patriot
ism he is loyal; judged by equal conditions, the
Jew ranks highest among ancient modern
people
AS human, he is not perfect, but his imDerfec-
lions are what we have made them. We well
come to shores people more Objectionable
than ROumanian Jews. ROumania's recent treat
ment Of the Jew is not only violation of the
Berlin treaty, but of the laws of God and man.
1t is to be hoped that Secretary Hays note to
the powers will lead them to cease their Jealous
rivalries. which make possible the violation Of
treaty obligations. America afford to be
the good Samaritan in the case Of the Roumanian
Jew, we'll as of the oppressed in Cuba and the
Philippines. If the diplomacy of Europe, inter-
national courtesy and Christian disregard Of
these barabarities cause REPETITION Of the shame
full persecution of the middle ages, may ex-
pect Jehovah, God of nations, to punish the ag
gressors He did their heather enemies Of
old.
l have visited their sacred city, Jerusalem;
have spoken in their synagogues. aud believe
that the Jew represents not only the past history
but the future hope of the world. He fingers
among Christian nations to teach them the spirit
of the Jew Of Nazareth.

HE TASTED 40 DAYS
That Scriptural Period of Total Alb.
stinence From Food Was Com
pleted by Mr.. Davis.
He Believes That He Has Modified
or Cured an Insidious Malady
by the Ordeal.

For a modern Instance of fasting,
which compares favorably with any well
authenticated historical case Of the kind
see MIR. Davis, who lives with his broth
er-in-law, George D. Croker, at SIG
Tenth avenue S. .a
For forty days and forty nights not a
mOuthful-not a. taste even-of any kind
of food has passed his lips. 1t was
August 20 that Mr.. Davis decided that food
did not agree with him and that a forty
day period of total abstinence from any
kind Of nourishment, either liquid or solid,
was the only treatment from which he
could expect to receive any benefit.
Drugs he had tried all his life, and when
creeping paralysis came on him the fact
was gradually forced home on him that
while doctors prescriptions might tempo
rarNy relieve him, they had no; lasting
effect. After comparing notes with a
friend, who had been greatly benefited for
some similar ailment by breaking himself
Of the eating habitHfor a long period, MIR.
Davis came to the conclusion that his
condition demanded the same kind of
treatment. The strange part OF it all is
that while the Jinsidious disease was
creeping slowly through his frame, his ap-
petite showed a corresponding increase.
He ate voraciously; couldn't seem to get
enough toSeat, and yet his powers of as
Sanitation were so Impoverished that hi;
food did him little good.
"Why eat at all If I receive no bene-
fit from the process? 2" he asked himself
one day when he had tried in vain to
appease the cravings of his stomach for
more food. About this time his friend
told him about the EAST cure, and he
resolved to put it into practice.
From. that day to this, he refused food
in any shape. The remarkable thing about
it is, that, enervated though he was be-
fore entering on his voluntary period Of
fasting, his physical condition has actual
ly improved.
He has lived on water. He drank spring
water at first in liberal doses. Gradual
ly, as he began to conquer his appetite
for food. he diminished the quantities Of
fluid so that he imbibed comparatively
little of it each day.
Though somewhat wasted away, Mr..
Davis weighs almost as much as before
his fast. He notices the effect Of going
without food for such a. long time chiefly
in the way it has weakened him. He has
little strength left, but believes that If he
is able to take and retain little liquid
nourishment until his stomach can &C.
commodate solids, his strength will rapid
ly return to him. He believes that the
paralysis is leaving him.
Mr.. Davis has kept close track Of his
symptoms each day of his fast He has
carefully jotted down in his diary notes
of his temperature, pulse, respiration and
other features Of the case, which will be
valuable from a medical standpoint He
intends to make these notes public when
satisfied that he is on the road to re-
covery.

Of the whole idea. as we'll as the CHIEF

slated for the secretaryshfp. He was Sec
rotary of the general committee that pre-
pared for last weeks convention and 1t
was only natural that he should go from
that place to that of secretary of the COM
mittee of the permanent organization.
Both Mr.. Rockwell and his friends con-
sdered the secretaryship so rightfully his
that they made no efforts to induce the
executive committee to appoint him. They
did not dream that the committee would
think of any other course.
When it was announced last Thurs
day afternoon that Professor Schaper
was to be secretary, Mr.. Rockwell and
his labor friends were astounded. The
latter at first supposed that the appoint
ment must have been made with Mr..
Rockwell's approval. But when they
found he was as much surprised as they,
there was such pronounced dissatisfac
ton that there has been some talk Of
making q systematic effort to withdraw
all labor support from the 'get-together'
convention next year, and from the whole
movement. in fact.

organization ought to represent organized

A MILITARY DINNER

To Be Given at Commercial Club in Honor
Of Fort Smelling Officers on
October 8.
The growing importance Of the mutual
interests of Minnea polls and Fort Shell
ing will be strongly emphasized at COM
plimentary dinner to be given the officers
of the post and of the Department Of
Dakota at the Minneapolis Commercial
club, Oct. 8. The committee having the
dinner in hand to-day decided to extend
a formal invitation to the army men to
partake of the hospitality Of the city at
that time. It is expected that about
twenty-five officers will be present The
names of the postmaster and speakers
will be announced later.
While the dinner is, in itself, simply g.
function incident to the installation OF a
new regiment at the post. it is believed
that such events cannot but impress upon
the business community the necessity Of
cultivating and paving the way for closer
relations between the big army post,
which is. $50 near and yet SO far from

PUBLISHED PROCEEDINGS
A Demand for the Full Text Of the e. and
z. Conference Addresses.

Whether the proceedings of the National
convention Of employer and employe are
published depends in a large measure upon
the citizens of Minneapolis. Every en-
ployer from out of the city who attended
as a delegate has expressed his willing
ness to share the expense if only the
book be published. 1t is believed in this
way that the good results will be widely
diffused.

GENERAL HAHN'S WILL
It Divides His Estate Into Four Equal

1t Divides His Estate Into Four Equal
Requests.
The will of the late General W. J. Hahn
was filed in the office of the probate court

mated at $27,5OO of which $4,000 is per-
sonal property, about one-half Of which is
stock of the Minnesota Loan and Trust
company.
The will is very short. With the consent
of his wife, he divides his estate into four
equal parts, between his widow, Matilda

Emelie A. Lewis, Mrs. Lavina M. Thorn

If this total Of 464 men effected by the
new schedule necessitates an increase Of
"a per cent, there will be needed III men.
In this respect the new schedule will re-
suit in material benefit to Minneapolis,
since the field of labor will be enlarged.
and the wage scale of the city increased
at one jump by about $1,000 a month, or
approximately 100000 year.
It is expected that many m1llers will
come from Superior and Milwaukee, as
these are the points from which inquiries
have been received Of late asking for po-
be adopted The mills expect a great
many more applications and have no
doubt men will drift in here from the
country mills, where the hours are long
and the wages. lower.
But If the city should fill up with new
men, no old, faithful employee would need
to fear for his position, as entirely aside
from the matter. OF a union the mill own
ers have the kindliest feelings towards
place any of them.
Results Renewed.
A prominent miller, reviewing the gen.
eral results. said this morning:
1T should be a source of congratula-
ton to the mill owners and employers that
the matter Of hours and wages has been
so satisfactorily adjusted, as It would
have taken but a short time for the en-
ployes to have lost in wages the whole
amount they were asking for, had they
gone out .@..
1T seems to us that the mill owners de-
serve commentator in not opposing the
men in their wishing eight-hour day
and in granting them increased pay, as
had they opposed them, it would have
been great drawback to their effort to
establish their organization throughout
the country, Minneapolis being recognized
as the leading flour center and other
points follow the lead of Minneapolis. 1t
is to be hoped sincerely that the good
feeling between the mill owners and the
employees will continue in the future as
1t has in the past. ...*Ff
1--WE have been unable to learn just how
the vote stood at yesterdays meeting of
the men but understand that at least so
per cent voted to accept the mill owners
offer-which is credit to the good judg-
ment and intelligence of the men,.
MANY of the men state that with four
hours less time to be on duty it will en-
able them to walk to and from their work
thereby saving their car fare of ten cents
per day. With this saving they figure that
they will practically have the same
amount of net earnings and four hours
more for rest and recreation"

Some mystery is attached to the five in
dictments returned by the grand jury last
Saturday. Under ordinary conditions the
persons named therein should have been
