Congregation Dissatisfied.

Never in the history OF the Meth0-
dist church 10 Vinita has there been
such an expression or feeling as that
shown By the people siucs the an
nouncemeEb OF its pastor sunday
morning Among his congregation
Mr.. Bray has many devoted and loyal
friends, aud outside his congregation
has many more who are filled with
grief and disappointment at his decis-
ion. The majority Of the representa-
tive people OF the town. both in the
church and out, are his ardent de-
tenders and admirers. No more able
man has ever filled the Methodist
pulpit here. The circumstances are
to be regretted by all who have the
interest OF the Methodist church at
heart, as it is feared that 1t will cause
a greater division 10 the church than
has ever been known before, forit has
been intimated by those in position
to know that when Mr.. Bray leaves
the Methodist church ne will not 60

The ,Elks' June carnival and industrial fair
has reached such proportions and is attract
ing such wide attention in the country that
the different roads running into Minneapolis
have about decided to run special excursions
to the city during the big show from points
throughout Minnesota and adjoining states.
A. B. Cults, general passenger agent of the
Minneapolis & st. Louis road. informed the
Elks committee on railroads yesterday that
if the different roads could get together on
that proposition the St: Louis would make
the desired concession in addition to the one
fare rate already promised.
John Ringling of Ringing Bros circus
yesterday wired yTheo l.. Hays, exalted ruler
of the Elks. that he would show in this city
June 80, instead Of June 9. as originally in
tended. The Elks objected particularly to
the early appearance Of the circus because it
would exclude the carnival paper from the bill
boards after June l.. When Michael Bres-
lauer and L.. n. Scott of the Minnesota Adver-
Using company, were acquainted with the
situation, they refused to bill the circus until
after. the, carnival. Mr.. Ringing gracefully
acquiesced as became brother Elk ---
In recognition Of this concession, the Elks
last evening voted to attend the circus in a
body June 80. r .-..

STOOD OUT A WEEK
DR.. Todd's Bicycle Certainly Has a
Mascot Attachment.
LIFTERs OVERLOOKED "A CHANCE
Meantime, DR.. H. w. Clark Had the
Police Looking for His
own Wheel.

DR.. Frank C.. Todd, stood at his window
and emulated Little Mabel" by fiat tening
his visage against the pane and gazing
dreamily at the swiftly falling rain
drops.
Suddenly he remembered that he had
left his bicycle standing on the sidewalk
in front of the Pillsbury building, in which
his Office is located. He remembered that
water is almost as harmful to wheel as
to a watch. So he called up an optician
whose place of business adjoins the Pills
bury building, and asked him to take the
wheel in out of the wet.
The optician obligingly promised to do
as directed, and going out into the street
seized bicycle which was rapidly absorb
ing into its system more moisture than
was good for 1t, and carried the machine
into his store.
DIR. Todd is a chauffeur as we'll as
wheelman, and did not have occasion to
call for his wheel until more than week
afterward. Meanwhile the police were
having g. nimble time searching for the
bicycle of DR.. H. w. Clark, which had
mysteriously disappeared from the side
walk on Nicollet avenue just above Sixth
street
Finally DR.. Todd called upon his friend
the optician for his wheel It was not
there, but in the store stood a machine
which the oculist recognized as that of
DR.. Clark.
DR.. Clark scratched his head pensively.
and then went out into the street. There
was his wheel, in the same place where it
had been standing, through wet and dry
weather, since he first left it a week
before. ''.-,

HOMES FOR WORKERS
West End Improvement Assn Will
Help Build Them.
NEW FACTORIES IN DISTRICT
The Association Plans to Provide
Employees With Homes Conven-
iently Near By.

The West End Improvement association,
organized 10 work for the material i'm
provement OF the territory politically and
geographically known as the West End of
the Fourth ward, is now preparing to en-
large its scope considerably by undertake
ing to assist wage earners in that locality
to own their own homes.
At meeting of the association last
night the plan was officially presented,
and it met with such favor among the
members and received such substantial
Endorsement from outsiders with money
to invest in This line as to give every
prospect Of success. ."
The West End of the Fourth ward is on
the eve Of an important Industrial de-
velopment. The Gilmore company has
just completed factory that will employ
fifty CT II lore mer. Tie Lugger Furniture
company is now enlarging its plant, and
the J. r. Clark box company is about to
begin the erection of new plant there
that will employ 100 or more men.
The Minneapolis & St. Louis railway
shops are also being enlarged and the
force of employees there will bes greatly
increased in few months. Even under
the conditions OF to-day there are not &C
concentrations in the immediate locality
to house all the men employed in the
present industries there and many are
forced to ride long distances on the street

IN that section. the situation in this re-
gard will not improve.
The West End Improvement associa ton
now proposes to take up the work Of fur
nishing money for the building Of work
ingmens homes, and will do 1t on such
liberal terms as to make 1t distinct
advantage to men to own their own homes
rather than rent. The plans call for the
payment of 10 per cent down. Then the
association will undertake to buy lot
and erect a dwelling. D. c. Bell, S. G..
Gale and others stand ready to cooper
ate with the association financially.
The territory covered by the associa-
ton is that portion OF the city beginning
at p point where Sixth avenue n, Hoag
avenue and Seventh street intersect,
thence south on Hoag avenue and Seventh
street to First avenue n. thence west on
First avenue N to Cedar Lake road, out
Cedar Lake road to city limits, thence
returning east on Sixth avenue to

The association will give the first open
air concert of the season Monday evening,

making arrangements for a series of Sat-
urday afternoon -icnics for the children.

Unless present plans of the Rock Island
management fail the twin cities will soon

oils. Chicago dispatches say that agents
OF the Rock Island are negotiating for
the purchase of majority of the stock
Of the Chicago, St. Louis & Peoria road.
with view to- making it the southern
portion of a new St. Louis Chicago line.
at is stated that in the purchase of the
Virgins Ferry company the Rock Island
had in mind not only the extension of the
st. Louis, Kansas City & Colorado line
to Kansas City, but the purchase of the
Chicago. Peoria & St.. Louis and, its use
as the nucleus for new line between
Minneapolis and St. Louis and between
Chicago and st. Louis.
The proposed route from Chicago to
st. Louis is $50 miles, thereby giving the
company as good line to St. Louis as
any of the existing lines. The St. Louis
Minneapolis line would be completed by
the purchase of the Chicago, Peoria &
st. Louis, the route being as follows: St..
Louis to Peoria over the Chicago, Peoria

the Rock Island & Peoria, now owned by
the Rock Island; from Rock Island to
Minneapolis over the Burlington, Cedar

by the Rock Island. s--.-.- III.

Tomorrow evening the Bethlehem, Choral
Union will give rendition of Gaul's Holy
City, at Bethlehem Presbyterian church,
corner of Twenty sixth street and Pleasant

preparations for this occasion, and has been
doing splendid work in its rehearsals Of the
work 49, sr
The solos are to be rendered by number
of young people well KIN own in musical circles.
Miss Agnes E. Hammond who has been the
soprano soloist at Bethlehem for a number
of years, will take the soprano role Her
voice is pure, high and of great sweetness.
Misses Ella Robertson and Myrtle MoCune
both of whom are accomplished singers with
fine voices, will take the contralto solos. Les

church, young singer Of much promise, and
Nelson Price, tenor, well-known in musical
circles, will take the male solos, Miss Fran
ces Chamberlain, will assist with the mezzo
soprano parts, and Everett Higgins, in the
tenor. Miss Ethel Hobart is the pianist .
Additional interest is lent the occasion from
the fact that the Bethlehem Union has been in
existence for a number of years, and has
during all that time been a prominent and
very valuable feature in the church work In
deed, it has served as the pattern for many
similar organizations throughout the city The
new church building is in process of erection,
and the Choral Union is taking it's rightful
place in striving to add to the funds now being
raised for that purpose.
The Choral Union will be assisted by the
Bethlehem Sunday school orchestra of ten
pieces, which will add materially to the sue
cess Of the occasion. The concert commences

subscriptions and answer questions with
which each mail is flooded AS soon as

mittee in going ahead can be raised,
definite plans for the music in the parks
will be mapped out. .s..'
1t, is the understanding that particular
attention in the way of music will be paid
to parks situated in those districts of the
city, where the most interest is mani
tested in the movement. To develop this
interest in the various sections and
demonstrate Just how anxious people are
for music in their respective localities,
committees will be asked to solicit funds
for music around the different parks. To
this end interested persons willing to take
the initiative are asked to organize rep

cause to c. A. Quist of the citizens pub
