tions Keep Young People Away
From Church.

CHICAGO, -Apr.i z5.-'fIf the clergy Of
the Methodist Episcopal church expect to
keep their young men and women in the
fold, they must do away with old restric-
tions against card playing, dancing. and
attendance at the theaters. If they are
not allowed to follow the dictates of their
conscience, they will attend churches
where they will be allowed to do so, or
they will not attend church at ALL
This in substance, was the declaration
set forth at a dinner at the Union League
club, attended by sixty-five prominent
Methodist ministers and laymen of Chi
cago. The proposition received general
discussion in which Bishop j. w. Ham
ilton, l.. d. COndee and Robert Quayle
took leading parts.
Il recommend that all laymen and
cleIgymen to whom the interests of the
Methodist church are dear, organize
e. ound this question and insist that at
the next general conference the present
regulations and restrictions be removed. >
Another important movement set on
FOOT at the meeting was the consolidation
of all the book interests and periodicals
OF the church in this country. If the
movement is successful the site of the
central institution will be in Chicago.

those charges, and that he would do all
in his power to render the inquiry ex-
haustive.
The resolution as adopted and the pre-
amble upon which it is based follow:
Whereas, it has been currently report
ed that nearly the entire crop of Cuban
sugar has been purchased and is now
held by what is generally known as the
sugar trust which is the principal con-
sumer of sugar in the United States and
that any concessions given to the raisers
of cane sugar in the island of Cuba or
any measures intended for their relief
by admitting their sugar at reduced
rates of duty into the United States will
only benefit the said sugar trust and that
the Cubans will receive no real benefit
from such concessions; and
Whereas, it is alleged that large
number of citizens Of the United States
have acquired large holdings of c&ne-pro-
ducing lands in Cuba and are now espe-
cially urging the reduction of duty on
sugar on the claim that such reduction
will benefit the people of Cuba; therefore
be it
Resolved, That the committee on rela-
tions with Cuba be, and is hereby direct

truth of these charges and to report to

Condition Look Serious.

AMSTERDAM, April 25.-In official cir
cles no amelioration of Queen Wilhel-
mina's condition is reported, and her
doctors admission that she is not sleep
ing well is taken as a bad sign
1t is alleged that the dispatches from
the royal family concerning the queens
condition differ substantially from the
medical bulletins on the subject.
1t is reported that the queen is restive
under the liquid diet treatment, and has
insisted that her nurses give her solid
food. In this respect, however, her doc
tors are inexorable
The queens mother has great difficulty
in pacifying the patient. 1t is ascertain
ed that the doctors have advised the
queen mother for the sake of her own
health to relax her vigilance and take a
daily walk or drive. Thes outings, there
fore, are no indication that her majesty
is progressing favorably.

ALL OF MINNESOTA WELCOMES
WET WEATHER, DESPITE
SMALL DAMAGE
SOUTHWEST ALSO IN GLEE
and Nebraska Alike Receive
Drenching, and Prospects
Are for More Rain.

Rain, long prayed for and almost des-
paired of, came to Minnesota yesterday,
just as the farmers were on the verge of
final surrender of hope. All day yesterday
the welcome precipitation soaked the
fields and gardens and washed the paved
streets of cities, and under it's magic
Touch the grass turned green almost be-
fore anyone had noticed it, and at noon
yesterday every lawn in st. Paul present
ed a soft, velvety verdure that was a
tonic to the eyesight.
Everybody received the rain with
gracious welcome and there was no COM
plant heard even by those who carried
no umbrellas to protect them from the
dampneSS.
The rain started early >in the morning
and at o'clock Weather Observer Lyons
announced that one inch of water had
fallen upon the thirsty earth, and that
he expected at least an inch and a half
more of precipita ton before the rain
ceased. At midnight last night his mar
gin was wiped out and the rain was still
falling gently, but steadily, with no pros
poets of immediate cessation.
Rain General in the State.
Reports indicate that the rain was very
general throughout the entire state. At
about II o'clock it began to hail and at
midnight the rain had changed to a soft
SIGShy snow.
In many parts of the state the rain
was exceptionally heavy and developed
into severe storm, and last nighe many
wires were down.
The predictions for today are that it
will be partly cloudy, with but slight
variation in temperature.
Yesterdays fail comes as well
come addition to the supply con-
trolled by the St Paul water department.
For the past two weeks Lake Vadnais

been dropping at the rate of half an inch
day and it was only Wednesday that
the wells were pressed into service to
make up the deficit.
Level of Lakes Raised in Time.
There has not been, nor will there be
any scarcity of water said Secretary
Caulheld, of the water board, yesterday,
but the lakes have been unusually low
just the same. We are always prepared
TO make up any deficit in our natural re-
sources by artificial means, such as the
wells and small lakes, but the drought
seems to be broken and there will no
necessity now.''
According to Mr.. Caulfield the level Of
the lakes from which St Paul gets it's
drinking water has not been as low in
1--WE years as it was this spring. While
the lack of spring rains assisted the
main cause was the scarcity of snow,
