anything ia particular for the road
that they should be presented with

pass him over those crossings that
the road has closed up Mr.. Mocha

that the giving 10 him the pass over

INVITE NATIONAL BODY
Minnesota Spiritualists Will Ask
Main Association to Hold Next
Convention Here.

The Minnesota Spiritualists will invite
the national association to hold it's an
nual convention In Minneapolis in Oc-
tober, 1903. The suggestion was a part
of the resolutions presented to the as
sociation to-day by Will J. Erwood, chair
man Of the committee.
BY the adoption of the resolutions the
state association takes it's stand on the
question whether spiritualism is a science
or religion. 1t declares that the system is
a religion. The association indorses all
reform movements for the benefit of
physical and mental purity Of humanity
and also has a word in favor of mag
netic, mental and spiritual healing. The
adjustment of capital and labor troubles
without friction was commended The
hope that industrialism should so super ..
sede militarism that wars shall never
more occur" and the urging of the dis
armament of nations to create the age of
peace, reused opposition. from some
members who do not like the sound of the
word "militarism." The association Is
opposed to capital punishment and vacci-
nation. Greater care will be exercised
in granting ordination hereafter and appli-
cants must be residents of the state, be
recommended by a local auxiliary and
give evidences of worthiness.

BOND AWARD IS RATIFIED
St. Paul German-American Bank
Gets New Issue, Paying Prem
i'lttlD
ium of $4,125. s>ii.;..

The action of the ways and means COM
mittee in awarding the $250,00O water
works bonds to the National German
American bank of St. Paul, was ratified
at special meeting of the city council at
noon to-day. The premium on the bonds
was but $4125, the sale having been made
to the st. Paul company for $254, 4,125. The
money was paid into the city treasurey by
the representative of the successful bid
der Immediately following the action of
the committee. The bonds bear interest
at 31@ per cent and mature July i, 1882
The amount paid is the lowest figure
ever received for Minneapolis bonds at
81 per cent. The low price is attributed
to the bad money market in the east, the
low rate of interest and the delay of the
council in advertising for bids If the
bonds had been issued a few months ago,
| a higher price would have been received
but 1t has been impossible to secure full
meeting Of the council to vote upon the
question. Members who repeatedly alb
sented themselves were prevailed upon to
attend only when assured that certain is
sues which they wished to dodge would
not come up.
The highest bid received was that of R.
l.. Day & Co. of. Boston. It could not be
accepted because the attorney for that
company wished more time in which to
investigate the legality Of the issue. The
price bid by the st. Paul firm will net the
| city ABOUT 3.4l per cent on the investment.
The bid Of w. J. Hayes & Co. Of C1eve-
| lano: was returned unopened having been
| received too late for consideration.
| The law under which the bond Issue wa g
authorized provides that they must be de-
| llVered to the purchaser within six months
from the passage of the act. The time
| limit expired at noon TODAY.

FRENCH NORMAL SCHOOL
An Institution in Chicago Which
Will Be Backed by the French
Government.
Ne,o York Su,. Special Service

Neso York Su,, Special Service
Paris, Sept. en-. Mabilleau, the presi-
dent Of the social museum of Paris, in
tends to found a French normal school in
Chicago during his visit to that city the
coming winter.
The new institution will be directly as
sociated with the Alliance Franchise and
will not, as has been suggested, be af-
fliated with the University of Chicago. AS
at present contemplated the plans provide
for school in which specially selected
French students will be sent to Chicago
at the rate Of twenty every two years.
These students will be competent French
graduates who, after a course Of two years
in the Chicago institution, will apply for
positions in the various American COL
leges and universities. All expenses are
to be paid by the French government, and
the future teachers will be kept by France
until they shall have received remunera-
tive positions in America.
The purpose of this very generous edu-
cational gift to the United States is the
cultivation of a knowledge of French art
and letters in America and the consequent
intimate feeling between the scholarship
of the two countries. J. H. Hyde, the
president of the Alliance Franchise, and
NJ Mabilleau have just had most en-
couraging interview upon the subject with
M Chaumie, the minister of public In
StructiOn.

THE WONDER GROWS

At the Way The journal and "kabo''
Light Up the Heavens.
Fair visitors and people Of the city have
been wondering this week at the mar
velous signs floating. in the skies above
Nicolet: avenue for the "Kabo' corset and
~ ournal. l. Last night as the search
light was playing on both signs, a group
of visitors stood on the corner of Sixth
street aed Nicollet holding their heads
back watching the big banners floating
high above their heads. They were soon
joined by others and soon the sidewalk
was almost impossible. 1t was new sight
for many and they gave vent to their
astonishment in many ways.
One old man fixed his gaze on the dis
play Of colored lights and remarked to
his neighbor, ''Well, I've seen good
many signs but this is the first time
ever saw them bottle UP daylight, keep it
until dark and then use it to light up a
sign, b'gosh.'
Tonight will be the last night the
searchlight will shine. The Kabo goes
next week to St. Paul. The Journal aero
plane will be sent UP at intervals.

His Body Before Train a.
Is Stopped.

Henry Lippi, a young man about 25, re-
siding with 81 parents at 2519 Sixth street
S, committed suicide this morning by
throwing himself beneath the wheels of a
moving caboose in the south yards of the
Milwaukee railroad. His head was COM
pletely severed from the body. Coroner
Williams decided that it was plain case
of suicide.
Lippi had been hanging around the
yards for sevral days and Thursday called
at the office of the Minneapolis Cooperage
company near by and asked for job.
He was refused, but continued to stay
around the yards.
This morning he was noticed standing
near the caboose which was about to be
switched. Suddenly he took off his hat
an dappeared to look under the car. just.
as it started in motion, he placed his
neck on the rail in front of the wheels.
Both wheels of the truck passed over his
body before the engine could be stopped.
Lippi was a single man and had been
respondent for several days. He had
s1.2O and gold watch in his pocket.
