INSTALL NEW Wears
Bishop Edsall and His Assistants
Take Formal Charge at St.
Marks.

Rainy weather did not prevent large
attendance yesterday morning at ST..
Marks Pro-cathedral, when Bishop Sam
uel Cook Edsall was formally recognized
and Rev. Charles Edgar Haupt and Rev.
George Heathcote Hills were instituted
as Wears. The service was simple, with
special music by the large boy choir,
under direction of the chorister, George
H. Normington. ..F ..
During the professional the wardens
and vestry members waited at the chan
eel rail where the bishop declared the
purpose Of the occasion. The Wears
pledged themselves to be faithful, and
thereupon received the keys from the
senior warden.
Bishop Edsall, in his inaugural sermon,
set forth the duties Of the Wears and
Of the people. He urged cooperation and
an entire absence of censorious compari-
son. He said 1t had been found that the
administration of the affairs of such a
large diocese could be best accomplished
by the association of ministers of equal
responsibility and with individual indie
pendence. At conference exact plans
for division of the work had been made.

FIGHTING The PIGS
Midway Residents Wonder at Open
Violation of the Liquor
Laws There. -
They Obtain a List of Persons in
Midway Holding Government
Licenses.

Midway residents are greatly stirred up
over the report made by the St. Paul
license inspector, Charles Jessrang, that
no blind pigs can be found in the Midway
district. That the pigs" exist is known
by all the residents in the district and
scarcely a day passes that men who don't
care for soft drinks can be seen coming
from places commonly understood to
shelter the sightless swine.
Midway district residents have secured
the following list of government liquor
licenses held by persons along University
avenue: A. Alton, 1925 University ave-
nue.; F. G. Carey, 1867 University avenue;
Mary De Franchey, 1882 University ave-
nue.; Charles Faughan, 2152 University
avenue; Jacob Menglekoch, University
and Prior avenues; Midway club, 1881 Uni
versity avenue; R. J. Mills, 1912 University
avenue; Ole Olson, 214S University ave-
nue.; The Prior club, 1856 University ave-
nue.; M. Towey, 2119 University avenue,
and Martin Towey, 2148 University ave-
nue.. Each of the licenses cost $25 and
the residents think that the holders are
not willing to pay out that much money
unless they are reaping some benefit.
The police do not interfere with the
places, tho arrests of men frequenting
them have not been unusual Only yes
terday a man became intoxicated in one
Of the Midway places and went home to
cause a fight in his brothers family, which
was stopped only upon the arrival Of the
police.
Last week one Of the temperance work
ers of the Midway district went to the
st. Paul police headquarters and asked
that something be done to stop the vio-
1ation Of the law. "Have you any evil
dence against these places?' was the sat
isfaction she received. She told them it
was the business of the police to see that
the law was not violated and not hers,
especially where the violations were so
fragrant and open as they are in the Mid
way. .......-.-.I ~ -. 1....

WASHER KNOCKED OUT
Determined Young Woman Emphat-

One masher on Washington avenue last
night was punished for his audacity in
speaking to an unknown woman. He was
standing at the corner near Dillin's drug
store when Miss Helen Lewis Of Red Wing
passed. He spoke to her and she stopped
and looked him squarely in the face.
Thinking that he had succeeded in MAX
ing a mash" he attempted to catch her
by the arm, when the girl dealt him a
stinging blow between the eyes. The
force Of the blow staggered him, and be-
fore he could regain his equilibrium, she
struck him again and knocked him down
into the gutter. AS he tried to regain his
feet a third blow brought him down again.
The masher reported the matter to Pa

Southern Minnesota came in for wet
weather this week, as usual. 1t Is damp,
cloudy and generally disagreeable in the
southern half Of the state. For nearly a
a week the northern half Of the state,
especially the Red river valley, had no
rain until yesterday, when a general fall
was experienced. The Dakotas also got
a wetting. Grain in shock is probably
damaged in the southern part of the
state, but no reports have been received

Hundreds Climbed Tower of Court
house Last Week.

One Of the Minneapolis places that in
terested visitors last week was the Min

dreds Of people of every race, color and
condition inspected the place where Hen
nepin county prisoners are confined. Yes
terday alone 525 visitors paid their re-
spects to Tailor Clausen and several other
days were not far behind. The court
house tower has been turned into verit-
able tower Of Babel and the varieties of
expression regarding the wonders to be
seen therefrom would be of interest to an
expert linguist. Friday 900 persons were
carried to the fifth floor and climbed the
200 steps up into the high belfry.
