WORK ON FEDERAL BUILDING
Rapid Progress Being Made in Fed
eral Courtroom. Chances =

Rapid progress is being made by the II.
~ Leighton company of this city in re-
modelling the old courtrooms at the federal
building. The work is to cost $4,000. 1t
will probably be completed within two
months. The contract was awarded in
advance of that for the other proposed
changes. This was made necessary in
view Of the circumstance that the remod-
eled, .courtroomst will accommodate Off
| Gals who will be deprived of their 3present
quarters. Each of the9:courtroorns now
occupies parts of the second and the third
stories. The two rooms will hegs trans
formed into six4o eight offices by the
erection of additional walls and floors.
In the remodeled building each court
room will be entered from the fourth floor,
and each will extend upward to the ceiling
of the fifth story. But the fourth and
fifth stories will be lowertthan the second
and third stories,s making the ceilings Of
the new courtrooms less lofty than those
| of the old apartments. For this and other
reasons the contractors expect that the
execrable acoustics of the old 5courtrooms
will4not mar the serenity of Justice upon
her future thrones

Attorney General Douglas appeared be-

his opinion. would hold water. 1t does
not prohibit the use of trading stamps,

MUSIC WAS STOPPED
Those Who Gathered at St. Anthony
Church to Hear "Crucifxion''
Were Disappointed.
Father 0'Reilly Says Music Isn't AL.
lowable Between Maundy Thurs
day and Easter.

i Sir. John Stainer'ss "Crucifxion' was
not, sung last night at the Church of st.
Anthony Of Padua as expected. = Father
James O'Reilly, pastor of the parish, an
l:ounced att the beginning oftthe service
that the special musical feature would
not be given. |t's1E F.Ent - .ss
The large auditorium was filled to over
flowing last night me street. cars on the
northeast lines were taxed to carry the
worshippers to the. church. Altho dur
ing the entire series Of Lenten services,
the church has been filled with faithful
parishioners, the announcement of the
rendition of Stainers famous musical COM
position under direction of Messrs. Mad
sen and Crosby Hops tended to increase
the throng last night. Much disappoint
rnent at the change was expressed.
Father O'Reilly stated that the rules of
the church did not allow singing or the
playing Of the organ from Holy Thursday
until the night of Holy Saturday, as it was
understood that 1.-THE Crucifixion' could
not be given otherwise, it was omitted.
Holy week is a most solemn time in the
church year and music is prescribed dur
ing the last three days.
From the rubrics it is inferred that in
no regular service shall the organ be
played, but this is construed in some
churches not to bar certain renditions Of
scored music apart from the regular serv-
ice, such as ''Stabat Mater to be sung
this evening at ST. Charles church OF
Fourth street S. ... IL. ...'
For nearly a thousand years the discip-
line of the Latin church forbade the offer
ing of the sacrifice of the holy mass or
Holy Saturday as well as Good Friday
in remembrance Of the time when the
body Of our Lord lay lifeless in the tomb
The object Of the whole services or
Holy Saturday is the baptism Of the
Catachumens and all the ceremonies con-
verge toward this end. The office com
prises, first. the blessing of the new fire
and the incense; second, the blessing Of
the paschal candle, third, the prophecies
fourth, the blessing of the font; fifth, the
litanies, and, sixth, the mass termina ting
with the vespers.
Not until the eleventh century wa:
the mass allowed to be said on Holy
Saturday, instead of the night preced
! ing, Holy, or Eeaster Sunday.

Deer at Minnehah Don't Wear, the
Smile That Won't Come :.
They Are Not Writing Glowing Tes'
timonials for Their Present
Diet. :.

Several complaints from people resid-
ing in the vicinity of Minnehaha Park
concerning the condition of the elk and
deer at the park have come to the HUI
name society and yesterday all agent in
vestigated the condition of the animals.
He reported that he found several of the
deer in extremely poor condition while
the elk and few of the older deer are in
fairly good flesh. He reported the condi-
tion of the deer to Commissioner A. S.
Adams, president Of the park board, who
promised that something would be done
to better the condition of the animals.
An old soldier and former trapper re-
siding at the Soldiers Home, says that the
condition Of the deer and elk is due to
the fact that they do not have the proper
kind of food. He says their principal food
is buds and tender shoots Of brush, and
that the small pasture in which they are
confined at the park makes 1t impossible
for them to get enough browse to keep
them in good condition. - ~ - sr.A'.
While the agent of the Humane society
was comforting with representatives of, the
park board in regard to the condition OF
the elk and deer, he took asfOn to in :
form them that several changes will have
to be made in regard to caring for the
smaller animals at the park. Several Of
the coops will have to be enlarged and 9TH
ers must be changed in location or pro-
vided with artificial shade. This matter
has been taken up several times in the
past few years but no definite action, ha S
been taken. This year the officers of
the Humane society say that if the
changes are not made they will take
definite action. - O.. .si.. . .-@
The agent who Investigated the exist
ing conditions at the park, says that .sey-
eral OF the coops are so small that the
animals have barely room enough in
which to turn around. Other coops are
exposed to the unbroken rays Of the sur
and in the summer are unbearably hot.
President A. S. Adams of the park
board, who resides in the vicinity of the
park, acknowledges that these conditions
exist and promises that they will be rem
edied this summer. .< -.. .....-.. .

COST OF SMELLING SPUR
The Federal Appropriation Lacks
$500 of Being Enough

War department officials have discoy-
cred that there is not quite money enough
available for the construction Of the spur
Of the Milwaukee railroad into Fort Shell
ing reservation. Congress last year ap-
propriated $500 for this purpose, which
was added to a balance of $1,000, making
$14,5OO which could be expended. The
lowest bid for the work was $14 800, sub
mitted by M. J. Shepherd & Co. Of Minne-
apolis. It is probable that this firm will
be asked to knock $500 off its bid. so the
contract may be awarded.
