MEMORIAL SERMON.
Rev. H. D. Williams breaches to the
KniqhtS of Pythias.

Rev. Fl. D. Williams preached the
memorial sermon to the Knights of
Pythias lodge at the First Church of
Christ Thursday. The lodge attend
ed in a body with good representa-
tion, and the church was comfortably
filed. The pulpit platform was at
tractively decorated with flowers and
ferns.
The music was unusually good.
Prof. Travis, who had it in charge,
rendered a solo that was very fine.
Mr.. Villains preached en- excellent
sermon on "The Use of Memorials. :"
He said that they were intended to
refresh the memory concerning per-
sons who had stood out prominent
and encourage othersSsto strive for such
prominence. A country or an insti-
tuition that had no memorial day
would seen disappear. The Greeks
and Romans had their memorial days,
but in their latter days neglected them,
and they went down. The first mem
orial day among Americans was the
Fourth of July, to commemorate the
acts of those who aided in, achieving
independence for the country. May
3Oth is the memorial day for those
who died in defending the union.
George Washington stands out preemi-
nent in the one and Abraham Lincoln
in the other Another memorial day
is the one dedicated by Christ, and
that is Sunday. So great and impor-
tant is the idea in this memorial day
that it comes once a week, and should
be faithfully~~observed.
The Knights of Pythias have q
memorial day for their dead, when
the memory of the brothers who have
gone before shall be revived and kept
awake. This was proper and right.
Mr.. Williams urged all the Knights
to so live that as time goes on the
memorial days may have deeper
significance and the lives of the dead
may more and more exalt and inspire
the ideals of those living

PRINCE is NABBED
Disturbed Services at the
Baptist Church.
Locked Up by a Police Officer and
Examined as to His Sanity
An Old Offender.

"The Prince of Peace got locked
up Sunday for cutting in" on
church services He attended the
morning services at the Baptist
church, going long before the hour for
beginning. Rev. F. E. R. Miller, the
pastor, had the police notified, in
accordance with an understanding
among the ministers, and Officer
Daniels went to the church, keeping
out of sight in the vestibule.
As soon as Rev. Miller had conclud-
ed his prayer before the sermon, the
"Prince'' was out of his seat and
fairly running down the aisle. He
started to repeat some scripture in his
usual style, when he saw Officer
Daniels making for him down the
aisle. He faltered, but went on again.
The officer asked Rev. Miller whether
he should arrest the fellow The pastor
said that this was his desire. - The
"Prince'' started for his seat where
be had left his hat, and when the
officer told him toaccompany him he
made no objection.
At the police station, the man in
sisted that his name was 1.-The Prince
of Peace and that his home was in
Heaven.
To Officer Klughertz, the man said,
after much questioning, that his name
was originally Gotlieb frost, before
being "reborn," and that he was born
at Wertenburg, Germany, sixty-one
years ago. He had emigrated to
America with his father and sister,
but both had since died. He said
that he was a single man, and had
been educated in the German Lurh,
eran church. He had been going
around the country repairing um-
brellas and speaking at religious meet
ings for two or three years. He came
to America in 1868.
It was learned that frost has been
over large part of the country. He
has been arrested at Chicago severa
times for interrupting religious ser
vices, but let go, as he was considered
to be harmless. Among other meet
ings, he has interrupted Dowie's.
Rev. Miller stated today that i
had been decided to have frost. arrest
ed because of his attitude toward Mis-
Downie, the evangelist at Redwood
Falls, who, he imagines, is his brid'
elect. It is feared that he may ser
iously annoy and perhaps alarm her i

tion.
frost was taken before Judg
Hughes at ii a. m., and examined a
to his sanity by Drs. Beach and Brand

AS he is nonresident, he was locke'
| up in the county Jail, and word wa
sent to the state board of correction
and charities, asking what shall b
done with the man.
At the examination, frost said tina
he had a wife and three childre
somewhere, but he did not kno'

The Contract Followed.

The contract between the city and
the Barber Asphalt Co. was looked
over more carefully Thursday, and was
found to provide that the company
can take such of the stone from the
crosswalks as it needs to make headers
for the ends of the pavements at the
street intersections.
It has also been demonstrated that
President Porter had ample power to
lease the road roller.

There are some interesting facts in
connection with the attendance at the
schools. At the East Side school, at
which Mr.. Wedmark presided, every
scholar who was enrolled attended the
40 days required to entitle them to draw
state apportionment, and on the West
Side all except four will draw; on the
West Side, where there were 26 enrolled,
there was an average attendance OF 19,
and On the East Side, where the enroll
ment was 90, there was an average at-
tendance of 13. When the fact that
many of the children have to walk long
distances to get to the school is con-
sidered this seems a remarkably high
average.
Messrs Wedmark and Trask will not
return next year, and have as yet not
decided where they will be. Both of tho
gentlemen are of high character and
will be benefit to any community in
which they may locate. We wish them
continued success in their work.

Base Ball.

Within few weeks the interest of the
country will center on the base ball dia-
mond. The attention of tie people of
tho Northwest will be devided among
thu American and National Leagues and
the American Association, in which

teams.
The American League has taken it's
place at the head of the list OF all base
ball organizations, and the American
Association is the strongest of the minor
aggregatione.
The National will also have many ad-
herents among the fans who have
watched its progress for years. Strong
clubs in each of the leagues indica to
that this will be year of hot races for
the pennant.
