BISHOP ROWE TO PREACH
At st. Marks Episcopal Church
go Sunday Morning..

Bishop P. T. Rowe Of Alaska, an old
time friend Of Rev. T. w. MacLean, will
preach at St. Marks, Sunday morning,
and at Gethsemane in the evening. The
bishop will address the Woman's Aux
iliary and Sunday school workers at ST..
PauPs church in the afternoon and Mon
day afternoon he will speak in Christ
church parish house at St. Paul.
Bishop Rowe was elected at the gen
eral convention in Minneapolis seven
years ago. The women of the church are
largely responsible for the bishops salary
and for his hospital and school work
BY birth a Canadian, the bishop was
educated at Trinity college, Toronto.
When elected bishop he was rector OF St.
James church, Sault Ste. Marie.
Natives Of Alaska who only seven years
ago lived in underground houses now in
habit comfortable log houses and have a
church built by the first united Offering Of
the auxiliary. These are results of hard
work on the part of the bishop and his
assistants. In some parts Of the diocese
the Thermometer often registers 60 below
and snow lies seven out of the twelve
months The bishops visit to the mis-
sionaries is the link with the outer world,
as sometimes mail comes only once year.
Within the district, at Point Hope, which
is inside the arctic circle, is church
school for Eskimo children; schools and
missions have been started also at Circle
City, Tanan and Anvik.

A SEPARATE COLLEGE
FOR DEPARTMENT OF CIyICs
Likelihood That One Will Be Organ
lied at the "U'' IL
Great.

Minnesota university, recognizing its
obligation to keep in line purposes to es-
tablish separate college of social and
political sciences. "A committee of the
regents is now considering the plan.
The plan is to set up college with
separate faculty, coordinate with the
academic, engineering end other colleges.
Under this plan the social and political
sciences are not merely to be scheduled
as electives, but are segregated, grouped,
arranged in proper sequence and presented
as wholes to students.
A separate faculty has control of the
time of the students and a separate cur
riculum and program Of studies gives the
subjects in their proper conference and
Importance. The. aim will be to train
young men for public duties, local, state,
national and International; to equip men
for useful careers in journalism and to
prepare others to carry on banking, trans
portation and commerce and to elevate
the legal profession, whose influence in
legislation is very profound, by placing
before it better specialized preparation.
In 190O-01 209 students registered in the
civlcs course, as against 191 in the liter
airy, 1872 in the scientific and 30 in the
classical, so that the indications would
point to a large attendance in the college
should it be organized.

WANT THE BIENNIAL
Minneapolis Club Women Favor Ex-
tending Invitation
FOR THE 1904 CONVENTION
Commercial Club Will Cooperate
Meeting Yesterday unofiicial-
Another Meeting Monday.

A mass meeting of club women was held
Tuesday afternoon at the West hotel
and voted unanimously to extend an in
vitation to the General Federation OF
Women's Clubs to hold it's biennial con-
vention in 1904 in Minneapolis. AS the
meeting yesterday was not official, dele
gated meeting of the clubs of the fifth
district and all other women interested
was appointed for Monday afternoon at
clock at the West Hotel to confirm the
action taken yesterday. The plan OF in
yiting the convention was undertaken
with the Endorsement and encouragement
of the Commercial club, whose complete
co.. operation was rendered formally.
The meeting, which was thoroughly rep
resentative, was presided over by Mrs. Il.
NJ. LaPenotiere. The matter was brought
before the meeting by the reading OF a
letter from the Commercial club proposing
to supplement an invitation from the club
women to the General Federation or
Women's Clubs to hold It's meeting in
1904 in Minneapolis by an invitation from
the Commercial club. This invitation Is
to be extended to show that the business
and professional people are interested IN
securing this gathering for the city. 1t
was stated that it was the expectation OF
the Commercial club that would be in
position to perform the same service IN
connection with this convention this IS
being rendered for the conventions this
year. 1t is the intention OF the CONNER
cial club, whenever an invitation extended
by it is accepted, to work with those es-
pecially interested and to aid them In
every way within its means in promoting
attendance and in making the occasion
pleasant one for the visitors. To that
end the club through its public affairs
and convention committee undertakes to
interest the men, Of the city to place at
its disposal fund sufficient to defray the
expenses incident to the promotion and
entertainment Of the convention secured,
Wallace G. Nye, chairman Of the public
affairs committee of the club, was pres
ent and explained more in detail the
policy of the club in handling conventions.
In answer to question Mr.. Nye said that
| in all probability the offer would hold for
the convention at a later date, If 1t was
not secured at the first attempt
! The chief discussion being on the man
ner Of presenting the invitation and the
probability Of securing the convention,
1t was voted to ask Mrs. Lydia Phillips
Williams to extend the invitation to the
Minneapolis club women. This was to be
| reinforced by the Invitations of the Com
| mercial club. the mayor Of the city and
Mrs. E. NJ. LaPenotiere, president Of the
| state federation.
The generous offer of the Commercial
| club was discussed with appreciation and
a vote of thanks was extended for its
| proffered cooperation.

Although the club was organized only a
month ago, covers were laid for fifty five,
and the dinner proved so pleasant func-
ton that another will probably be given
in the near future
w. l.. Agnew, advertising man of the
Great Northern road and president of the
club, off1ciated as POSTMASTER and intro
duced the various speakers. During his
remarks he said advertisers would give
up all other mediums rather than the
daily paper, which was the 'be-all and
end-alp' of advertising.
w. B. Chamberlain Of T h e Journ a
spoke on "The Advertising Man as Seen
by Mere Editor" He advocated the
use Of AngloSaxon words and terseness
in advertising and predicted that ad-
editors would soon be necessary on all
large papers.
F. l. Whitney, general passenger and
ticket agent Of the Great Northern, re-
piled to the toast, "The Man Behind the
Gun" He said he had been at a loss
to understand why club of advertising
men had been dubbed the Archimedians
until he remembered that Archimedes had
invented the endless screw.
He related some other incidents in the
life of the Syracusan philosopher and a
pat way applied them to the club. He dis
cussed entertainingly and cogently adver-
Using from the, view point of the man
who is placing an appropriation to the

advertising from its beginnings in the
Garden Of Eden, when Eve advertised raw
apple as a fine breakfast food down to the
present day.
j. Adam Bede told the club ''What /
Don't Know About Advertising" Con-
trary to expectations, his toast was COM
paratively short Referring to Mr.. Cham
berlain's remarks, the speaker said that
he had recently Travelled with woman
who had told him she intended to remove
to some place where her children could be
taught to speak English
"Where are you living now?" queried
Bede

Mr.. Bede told other witty stories and

tanning talk on matters of interest to his
auditors. -
Among the other toasts responded
to were those by ]. Harry Lewis

OLD LADY OF THE RATS
London Mail.


Paris-ln the unlovely district Of St.
Ouen lives an old rag picker, we'll known
to her nelghbors on account of her aver
sion to cats. Her name is Louise Maritz-
man, but every one knows her as Mother
Matou.
She was very uncleanly in her habits,
and the old cabin where she. lodged was
in a filthy condition. For some time
past, however, the odor from her dwell
ing has been growing worse every day,
and finally the inhabitants asked the po-
lice to interfere.
Yesterday morning the commissaire
accompanied by an inspector, called on
the old woman and found her seated in
chair In the center of her hovel, sur
rounded by over 500 rats.
Come in" said the old bag; you have
just arrived at lunch time" And as she
spoke she cut up in small pieces an
enormous chunk OF horse flesh and threw
1t to the rats, whose number increased
every minute.
The rodents paid no attention to the
strangers, but greedily .deyoured the
meat, and tumbled over one another in
their anxiety to get the last morsel
Suddenly Mother Matou called out
'"Toto!" Lulu" and couple of enor-
nous rats, bigger than any two OF the
others, came from the corner where they
had been concealed, and jumped on the
knees of the old woman. One had red
ribbon around its neck. and the other
blue one.
These are my children said the rag
picker; "are they not nice? Unfortu-
nately have lost others whom loved
quite as we'll, killed by the cursed cats
They are in the cemetery now. Come and
see." She led the way into cupboard
where. hanging from the roof were thirty
dead cats and on the f1nor were, tho
corpses Of nearly 200 rats, all laid out
side by side.
Ultimately q workman stopped up all
the crevices. basin of sulphur was set
ealight and in a little while not a rat
remained alive. sssss
