BUILDING UP OUR FACTORIES

We believe a newspaper should try
to serve the people as whole, though
at times it may appear that it is sdvo-
eating something that is opposed to
the interests of the people, while in
fact it is not. We believe that in pro-
noting tho growth of our factories we
are indirectly benetitting the city and
the people as a whole. Additional IA
cilities for moving the product of a
factory enables it to hcndle more, gives
it more room for the output, and con-
sequently increases its revenue and

income and business mean increased

.MR. PURDY IS HOME
Newly Appointed Assistant Attorney
General q. S. Returns From
Washington.
Will Assume New Duties April !
Not to Be a Special Trust
Slayer.

4 M. D. Purdy, who has just been ap-
pointed an assistant United States attor-
ney general, returned from Washington
city, this morning. He expects to enter
upon the duties of his new office April l.,
of course at Washington. He says he has
not yet decided whether he will make his
permanent residence in Washington or
not, that is for the period which he will
hold office.
The impression has got abroad from the
press dispatches that Mr.. Purdy was to
be sort Of special trust slayer and that
his duties in the attorney generals office
would be the execution Of plans for the
execution of illegal corporations. This is
a mistake. Mr.. Purdy takes a place as a
regular assistant attorney general and his
duties are likely to be a general nature.
They have not been specified as yet, at
any rate, and he may have a hand in the
Northern Securities fight.
Mr. Purdy is naturally and frankly
greatly pleased with the honor conferred
upon him and hardly less so with the
warm words of congratulation that he has
received on every hand since his return.
In the course of his stay in Washington,
Mr.. Purdy met several senators and from
his talks with them he became pretty well
satisfied that the Panama treaty would GO
through, though it might be delayed.

DESIRES A LARGE CHURCH
The Archbishop's View of Needs OF
Immaculate Conception Parish,

The Catholic churches of the city cele-
brated the twenty fifth anniversary of the
accession of Pope Leo XIII. yesterday
At the Church of the Immaculate Concep-
tion, Archbishop John Ireland preached.
He was assisted in the services by Rev.
Fathers Griffin, Cullen and Blum.
In closing the sermon the archbishop
unfolded the plan for the future Of the
parish which owns site for a new church
at Ninth street and Mary place. The
archbishop said
/" "The dear old church is no longer well
situated and it is too SMALL 1t is located
at an unattractive corner of Minnea polls
close to the railroad center, and not in a
district where it is desirable to send chill
dren unattended In three or four years
al new church will be an imperative ne
cessity." ,E%-s
To begin now to plan for the new
church, and use the present edifice until
a satisfactory price could be obtained
for the property, was the idea submit
ted. .t, T..
The archbishop desires the new church
to be worthy of the city and large enough
for the whole, service of the pontifcate.
He desires pro-cathedral so that he may
in the future devote more time to this
city.
| It was suggested that a committee of
| ten or more representative men Of the
! parish be appointed, to take charge of
| the matter and Archbishop Ireland be-
| lieves that the foundations of the church.
! to cost at least $200,000, may be laid this
year. --

private ownership is contemplated at the

CLAYTON GILBERTS WORK
coIiaborates with Richard Burton in Pre-
sentIng Cycle of Miracle
PIays, s.. .:

Clayton d. Gilbert, who went from Min
neapolis this year to the Emerson School
of Oratory in Boston to manage the prac-
tical dramatic and stage work of the
school, is directing two interesting dra-
matte productions outside Of the school.
One Of these is an entertainment afor the
Actors Church Alliance, which will be
given in April. The program will be made
up of a cycle of miracle plays, includ-
ing the Noah play. Abraham and Isaac,
and a third. In this production Mr.. Gill
bert is having the advice and co-opera-
ton. of DR.. Richard Burton and of DR..
Black of Boston university. Mr.. Gilbert
is also rehearsing and staging musical
comedy for the Y. M C. A. that will be
produced this month.
The new theater to be used in common
by Emerson college and the New Eng
land Conservatory, will not be completed
until May, and for that reason no large
school productions will be put on this
year; but Mr.. Gilbert has a number of
important plans under consideration for
next year. Recently, upon his invitation,
Miss Mable Hay Burrows, who put on the
Greek play at the university a few years
ago, gave a talk on Greek dancing for one
of his classes. AS usual, she captivated
her audience.
Mr.. Gilbert will return early in May to
direct the university class play,

BELIEVES IN EXPANSION
Splendid New Addition to Pearce's Cloak

Splendid New Addition to Pearce's Cloak
and Suit Store.
Pearce's Cloak and Suit store is having
a big anniversary celebration this week.
This popular store began business just two
years ago at 403 Nicolet avenue. Since
that time the floor space has been
trebled and the business has grown in
long strides. To-day a big addition to-
the second floor was thrown open to the
public. Mr.. Pearce found that his cloak
and suit department was too cramped for
the rapidly increasing business, so the
adjoining room on this floor was leased
the partition taken out and the whole floor
of the Crystal Facade building was given
over to the cloak and suit department
The whole floor has been elegantly fitted
|%up with new fixtures, a score of big mir
trors and luxurious rugs. There is not
more complete cloak and suit store west
of Chicago.
The first floor is devoted to waists mill
IElinery and muslin underwear. This last
department. recently added by Mr.. Pearce,
is one of the best in the northwest. The
| third floor and basement Of the building
| are used for stock rooms.
i Mi. Pearce returned last week from
I a trip to the New York markets, and at
| the opening to-day displayed one of the
i finest stocks of spring suits, skirts and
Jackets ever seen in Minneapolis. The
special anniversary sale will continue
! throughout the week.
