Eastern Roads Adopt 1t.
The telegraphone was invented about
a year ago, and was patented last Sep
TENDER. The National Telephone COM
pany is now commencing to introduce
the system. Already the New York
Central, including the entire system;
the Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburg,
and the Wheeling & Lake Erie, have
adopted the system under contract,
and many other Eastern railroads have
taken it up, though they have not yet
entered into contract with the COM
pany
The test made yesterday was the
first of its kind in the West, and was
the first which representatives of the
press were permitted to inspect.
Mr.. Grauel, the inventor, is a young
man, but is thoroughly versed in the
Substitutes of electricity The next
test he is to give is to be on the 500,
in North Dakota, where he will dem
onstrate the working of the telegraph
one on the prairies.

REV. DIR. FULTON TALKS
TO PRODIGAL FATHERS
Discusses the Various Kinds of Prodi-
gaIity and the Consequences.

"The Prodigal Father" in 1lis vari-
Gus phases, attractive and otherwise,
was presented by Rev. John Mayhem
Fulton, D. D., to his congregation at
the service last evening at Central
Presbyterian church.
Productivity itself he had found hard
to define closely from the fact that
there is but a faint line of demarcation
between some vices and some virtues.
Thrift, for instance, is generally rec
ogniZed as a virtue, but it is difficult
to say at what degree thrift merges
into niggardliness. On the other hand,
generosity is a virtue, but there is
only an indistinct line between gener-
osity and prodigality; and austerity
may be a virtue, but a life may be SO
circumscribed as to lose its light and
brightness.
The prodigal father of today he be-
Heved to most frequently be the prodi-
gal son of the past generation, and
those qualities which had in the boy
been attractive, had, in the man de-
veloped beyond the line of demarca-
tion.
The speaker referred to different
kinds of prOdigality and different
classes of prodigals. First, he spoke of
the man who is prodigal of his time
and misses opportunities, and fails of
success because Of that prodigality.
Then he took up the man who is
prodigal Of his money, and even though
not given to vicious habits, spends
money for things he does not need,
gives his children more money than
is good Tor them and lives in a more
expensive manner than he can afford,
until one day the crash comes, and he
is financially ruined. And, last of all,
he spoke of the one whose prodigaIity
leads him to spend both his time and
his money in the pursuit of pleasure,
and who becomes known as a good
fellow" but whose mode of life is an
injustice to himself and his family, and
whose ruination is more certainly as
sured than that of the other two
classes.

House of Hope church, last evening to a
large congregation.
The pastor drew lessons from the CEN
trail thought of each of the celebrated
paintings, and his discourse was enter
tainingly broken by an excellent pro-

RELIGION BASIS OF
GOOD CITIZENSHIP
Judge Kelly So Admonishes Crusaders at
Cretn Hall.

American Citizenship was the topic
of an instructive and inspiring address de-
Hvered by Judge William Louis Kelly
yesterday afternoon at the regular meet
ing Of the Crusaders at Cretin hail.
The speaker pointed out in a convinc-
ing manner that the highest citizenship
is that which conforms most fully to the
teachings of the church, and that no cit
1zenship is stable or worthy that is not
founded upon religion. Judge Kelly dwelt
at some length upon the Importance of re-
1igious principles in the government of
ones actions at all times, and compli-
mented the young men to whom he was
speaking upon the progress which they
had made in citizenship and the good in
duence of their society.

cd several vocal and instrumental num-
bers, contributed by members Of the So

SAYS BREWING FIRM
HAS COUNCIL IN
ITS HANDS
Rev. W. J. Gray Makes This
Assertion Before a Gather
ing of W, c. T.-U. Societies
at Plymouth Congrega-
tional Church Chief
O'Connor Is Praised.

sour people learned when we made
the fight against the location of a sa-
loon adjacent to our church last sum-
mer that q brewing company of St.
Paul really holds the council in it's
hands, asserted Rev. w. J. Gray, of
the Pacific Congregational church, yes
terday afternoon to an audience at
the Plymouth ongregational church.
I'VE also learned" continued the
speaker, that there is no law which
prohibits the opening of a saloon with
in a certain distance of a church or
school house. The majority Of people
suppose this is one of the provisions
of the law, and it is in the state, but
the charter commission. either pur.
poseIy or carelessly, omitted the sec
ton from the charter, and the brewing
companies are quick to take advantage
Of such mistakes and omissions.
I'VE also learned that what the
liquor interests desire is apathy and
not agitation on the part Of the people,
Agitation for the enforcement of the
laws is what the liquor interest is
afraid of. We found we were not only
up against the Hamm Brewing COM
pany, but the same opposition in an
other form-the city council. For three
weeks saloon within the shadow Of
our church was conducted without a
license and against our protests. Our
people were treated indifferently by
the board of aldermen, and some of
the ladies of our church insolently by
members of the assembly.
Another thing we found out was
that nothing gets the people so aroused
as fight for Righteousness, and the
people will stand for the right. What
the people Of st. Paul are in favor Of
is civic Righteousness"
Praise for Chief O'Connor.

Willard was observed by the w. G. T.
.. societies yesterday afternoon, and
the address by Rev. Gray was a part
of the services. Mrs. Addie Bixby Up
ham presided.
Rev. George S. sInnis, of Hamline
university, outlined the work of the
Society for the Enforcement Of Laws
in st. Paul which had recently been
started by the ministers of the city. It
was the idea, he said, to start with slow
and conservative methods and the
public would back up the organiza-
ton. Among those which would be
attempted would be the enforcement
of the law relating to the sale of liquor
to minors and the Illegal sale Of liquor
in the prohibited districts.
BY and by, when we get stronger
in numbers, we shall close the sa-
looms on Sundays" asserted Mr. Innis.
The speaker complimented the chief
Oh ponce Tor getting rid or the nickel
ln-the-Slot machines and keeping Wom-

He also spoke highly of the judges Of
the municipal court who were willing
to do their duFy in securing enforce
ment of the laws.
Mrs. Kelly, president of the Sacred
Thirst society, spoke briefly as to the
work done by the society, which she
represented, especially as to the en-
forcement of the law relating to the
sale of liquors to minors. She spoke in
the highest terms Of Chief O'Connor
and the aid he had given the society
in it's work along this line.

discussion pro and con over the phenom-

Whatever theory may be advanced as

no assistants nor paraphernalia of any

Rejected.
Oakland Office San Francisco Call.

Ills Broadway, Jan 2
After settling fortune Of S175,OoO on his
wife, Erik o. Lindbom, the Alaskan mil
lionaire, has baked at a little matter,
trifling, Of course, to a Nome mining king,
of a $1,000 bill for new dresses and other
woman's dainties and 5000 charge for
physicians attendance upon Mrs. Lind
blom-
1t is this aggregate Of 5000 that has
thrown an obstacle in the way Of peace
full settlement of the divorce suit of Mary
Ann Lindblom against her wealthy
spouse, that has been dragging Tor
months in the Superior Court of Alameda
County. Lindblom has put his foot down
and has declared that he will not pay
those bills. He defies his wife to collect
them and intimates very strongly II she
is not satisfied with the settlement when
has been made the subject Of a written
agreement between the couple that she
can have a battle.
AS an earnest Of his position, Lindblom
has reopened his end of the long waged
fight by filing a new cross-cOmplaint in
the suit, accusing Mrs. Lindblom or
cruelty, unfaithfulness and intemPerance.
But that is only an incident after all
this prolonged warfare in the courts Al
ter the first skirmishes were over both
sides got together to fix up matters finan-
cial. Lindblom, who is credited with
being a hard-headed man of business.
told mis- lawyers to make settlement or
the property interests that would satisfy
his wife. Her attorneys at last agreed
and the agreement was signed that she
should accept S175.000 worth of property.
The original charges in the divorce pa
pers were toned down and the suit was
in readiness to be tried when objection
number one came from Mrs. Lindk2om's
side 1t consisted of declaration that
her counsel was not satisfied with the
collateral Lindblom had furnished as Sc
curity for a $4,000 note he had made as
a portion of the property settlement upon
his wife. The security consisted C. a
block Of stock in a prominent mineral
spring company, which is commercially
rated high
Shortly after that agreement was made
end following closely upon the objections,
Mrs Lindblom's attorneys presented the
two bills nov in question. the dry goods
account from the White House and the
physicians bill from Dr. Cara B. Scho-
field of this city, and demanded that they
be paid. But Lndblom declared they
were not included in the agreement a12d
he would not pay them.
Then followed the renewal Of the cross
complaint the sfihng of which will pre-
vent a dismissal of the divC-ce suit by
Mrs Lindblom in the event the settlement
goes awry To dismiss the suit would
leave her still the wife of Lindblom and
in q position to rehew her fight for more
of his reputed Alaska wealth. Such
proceeding Isindblom's attorneys are
blocking.
When the LindblOm case was called to-
day before Judge Ogden it was continued
for week at request of the attorneys.
