NORWAY,

wrote ABOUT une party In power:
"How does it happen that men who
are amiable and fairminded in their
private dealings become so unfair and
naughty, not to say brutal, in poll
tical matters? It is because they have
been too long in power, the acquisi-
ton of power is dangerous. They are
in the habit of caring only for the
judgment of each other, for approval
by each other. They constitute a
complete state in the state. Within
the pales of this, in it's firmly estab-
Gshed machinery, the individual is
dragged down much lower than he
himself desires or his own bias carry
him. By being in power too long
they have had their moral health i'm
paired. Let them recover their health
in private life by taking rest! Their
platform and their explanation of it
proves how necessary it is that they
do so, and do so quickly!" The poet
closes this fall out of the Liberal par
ty by announcing that he has con-
fidence in the platform and leaders
of the Conservatives.
Vardo, June 3.-Serious disturb
ances occurred last night among the

Committee in Charge Hopes to Com.
,plete Necessary Sum by Com
mencement Day.

A movement which appeals to the alum
nj and friends Of the university, and
which is being pushed with yigor just
now Is that to complete by commencement
the $4,000 fund for a memorial to the
Minnesota university student soldiers in
the war with Spain. The cash in bank
now amounts to $2,S06.74, and about $500
more has been pledged, including an extra
$500 which the late John S. Pillsbury said
he would give. il necessary, to complete
the fund. Among those who have given
are; Former Governor j.. s.. Pillsbury,
$500: J. J. Hill. $500; W. II. Dunwoody,
500; Greenleaf Clark, 500; Thomas
Lowry, $780,.
The remainder thus far given came
from alumni and students.
Professor A. T.. Haynes hopes to COM
plete the fund without calling on the Pills
bury estate for the second $780, pledged
by Mr. Pilsbury conditionally. Professor
Haynes has been an indefatigable worker,
having spent much time and money form
his own purse in raising funds, and he is
making great effort to complete the fund
by commencement week.

PREACHED AT ALL SAINTS
Rev. Easton E. Madeira Conducts a
Second Service in Minneapolis
IN. by Special Request.

Rev. Easton Earl Madeira, late of st.
Johns Episcopal church of Elizabeth,
N. j., formerly sassistantq rector Of the
Church Of Heavenly Rest in New Y ork
city, preached yesterday at All Saints
church, Clinton avenue and Ty enty- sixth
street. "A week ago Mr. Madeira preached
at St. Marks: church, and at the request
of many who wished to hear him again.
remained for the morning service yester-
day at All Saints.
His sermon was brief and to the point
The text was from Philippians, l., /: For
me to live is Christ; to die is gain" This
apparently paradoxical statement was
based strong, logical appeal to his hear
ers for higher purposes OF life. Mr.. Ma
deira's delivery has a-certain warmth and
intensity which commands the attention
of his hearers and which indicates the
passionate desire of the speaker to influ-
ence the lives of his hearers for all that
is pure and good. He is young man.
The speaker said in part: Logical as
the human mind may be- it is often in
clined to make mistakes when Influenced
by an unusually pleasant conclusion.
Greater things are often obscured by lesser
things which have obtained more prom
Use. We count in Christ a means to an
end, namely, that we may inherit eternal
life. Friends, to live like Christ only in
q
selfish religion. If We live like Christ be
cause we love him and to honor him, that
is true religion, .s.=Y VI !.
no live in Christ There is.a wide
distinction between existing and living
Few live men exist. To live Is existence
with q dominant purpose. The man OF
dominant purpose makes a figure in the
world His purpose is SO great that it
overf1ows himself and gives inspiration
to others. The man who is never greater
than his environment is really never
great in anything. The real essence OF
life is purpose. Therefore it logically fol-
lows the greater the purpose the greater
the life. @'.: -.a5
"sTo die is gain Here is the paradox
ical fact, to lose is to gain and yet 1t
is a self-evident truth, when we can say,
For me to live is Christ, that we can
truly say to die is to gain
1T is natural and inevitable conse-
quence of living Christ If eternal life
is to know God and Christ, then the man
who has lived Christ all his life. when
he comes into his presence and sees the
love Christ bears for him, must feel ne has
gained all Of heaven. He is fit for heaven
He knows it's ways. They are such as he
has been practicing all his .life-peace

PUZZLE TO ST CLOUD.
People There Couldn't Understand
Announcement Of Change in
Their Schools.
They Have Industrial Work and
There's No Probability Of
Dropping It.

Despite a gloating editorial announce
ment to that effectsin a Minneapolis pa
per, the So called "fads'' have not been
kicked OUT of the st. Cloud schools.
"A week ago the Minneapolis paper which
has exhibited such grave and consistent
apprehension over. various sorts of indus
trial work in the schools, took occasion
to felicitate st. Cloud on its wonderful
school board. For had lit not obliterated
sloyd music and drawing from the school
curriculum and that iristheF face of recon-
mendation by the teachers 2 The names OF
the heroic directors who had thus started
the wave of reform were given and they
were heralded to the world as rare birds
indeed. SO i. ~ tf E5sE IS a.
When this editorial reached st. Cloud
the good people of that prosperous town
were sorely perplexed. 1t was known that
Messrs. Doane and Webb of the board OF
education were opposed to Industrial work
but they were in hopeless minority.
Not being familiar with the art of manu-
st. Cloud people finally came to the con.
clusion that the Minneapolis editorial was
a bit of sarcasm so heavily yelled thai
it seemed all the more sinister. They
didn't like it bit, for many Of them
were genuinely in favor Of industrial work
A Minneapolis man who has just re-
| turned from st. Cloud heard Of the aboli-
ton or industrial work there and inquired
regarding 1t from a merchant whose store
he happened to be In. The merchan,
explained the situation on the schoo
board and ventured the opinion that the
anti-industrial minority could never
swing the board over
I'VE want the industrial work" sait
| the merchant, :"for we know what it does
There's my own boy-never would dc
much with book studies and was especial
| ly slow in number work When he wa.
put OH Industrial work, he got interested
and walked up all over. He began to use
| his hands and from that came to appre
ciate the value Of knowledge to guide thu
hands. AS a result he is really interested
even in number work now"
