MANS PLACE IN NATURE.
So1ae Interesting Arguments Regard
ing the Importance Of Our
Terrestrial Ball.

The liveEst scientific discussion of q
purely speculative kind which is at
tracing the notice of learned world
at present is the one precipitated by
the recently published magazine ar
ticle in which A. r. Wallace argues
that our sun occupies the center OF
the universe, and that our earth is
demonstrably the only planet which
is inhabited by rational creatures.
AS was to be expected, multitude
of scientific guns, many of them OF
long range caliber, have been trained
on the famous Englishman's breast
works, and are pouring in shot and
shell, says the Boston Advertiser. By
the way, one thing which gives spe-
cial weight to Mr.. Wallace's cham
pionship of what may be called the
religious theory of astronomy is the
fact that he is the most distinguished
living exponent of Darwinism, which,
used to be thought to be SO hostile tc
Christianity. Indeed, Mr.. Wallace
divided with Charles Darwin the hon
or of having originated the theory of
evolution in it's nineteenth century
form.
Among the multitude of anti-Wai-
lace arguments which have lately
been put forth the most convincing
seems to be that of Prof. w. 81. Pick
ering, head of the astronomical de-
partment of Harvard university. To
the common mind. his most effective
answer to Mr.. Wallace's apparent
proof that we occupy "a position in
the exact center of the Milky Way
and therefore in the center of all the
starry systems, is that even if this be
SO, yet, inasmuch as 1--WE are moving
about IA miles every second straight
toward one side of the Milky Way,
we are not likely to remain centra!

first appeared, perhaps 100000 years
ago, we certainly could not have beer

There can be no question that at first

after his daily excursions for food,

! TO UNIONS
Trades and Labor Councils Action
on Proposed Purchase Of
Old City Hall.
Desirability Of Site for Park Pur-
poses Is Urged Before the
Council.

Roy Durand Herrick and Wallace G..
Nye. secretary Of the public affairs COM
m1ttee OF the Commercial club, attended a
meeting of the Trades and Labor Coun-
Gil last evening to urge the .desirab bility
OF creating public park on the site OF
the old city hall, such park to make
the site of Larkin Meade's statue Of the
Father Of Waters : =,
Mr.. Nye addressed the council briefly,
stating the position of the Commercial
club, and it's attitude toward the plans
of organized labor to have a temple. Mr..
Nye told of a trip made to several large
cities on behalf Of the club to see what
such cities were doing toward civic beau
t1ficat1on. He mentioned Cleveland in
particular which is spe nding large sums
Of money to obtain and Improve just such
a place giving access to the city from
the union station. s@.'
Mr.. Nye said that the club would for
ward any movement for securing for
labor organizations another site for the
construction Of a temple. For the future
good Of the city which in time would
stand far in advance of the position now
held by Minneapolis, he said, the site of
the old city hall should be devoted to a
park.
Mr.. Nye and Mr.. Herrick then withdrew
and the Council then discussed the subject
thoroughly. Sentiment was divided some
favoring the plan of purchasing the old
city hall for labor temple and others
seriously questioning whether the council
could with profit and otherwise salts
factory results acquire, remodel and main
tain the old city hall for a labor temple
! such as organized labor in Minneapolis
! should have. 1t was decided to refer the
matter back to the labor unions

He Thinks Park Board Right In Trying
~ to Remove Pavilion
at 'Haha. .-... -.
Henry S. Mead, attorney for several of
the Minnehaha pavilion proprietors, whom
the park board is trying to drive out of
business at Minnehaha park, conferred
with Mayor J. c. Haynes in that connec-
tion this morning. Mr.. Mead asked the
mayor to use his good offices in behalf
of the formers clients and declared that
the board was about to do rank in
justice.
Mr.. Mead questioned the boards wis
dom in attempting to monopolize the re-
freshment business by erecting a pavilion
of its own and taking such other steps
as would tend to exclude private stands
about the park from participation therein
1T seems to me, " he said, that the
public interest ought to be consulted in
this matter. If the public didn't want
those stands there they probably wouldn't
patronize them. and If the residents of
that vicinity who think Minnehaha park
| was designed especially for them, object
! to private refreshment pavilions, why
don't they buy the land on which the
stands are located instead of asking the
park board to make the purchased

ing, Washington.
Washington, April Ex-senator Lodge of
Massachusetts believes that concurrent ac-
ton of the house and senate to make the
Cuban reciprocity treaty effective will be
taken very quickly after congress assem-
bles in extra session next November.
There is no doubt, in my judgment,
that the necessary legislation approving
the Cuban treaty will be passed promptly
on the assembling of the special session
of congress next November said he to-
day. The democratic hopes of precipitat-
ing an extensive tariff debate based on
the Cuban treaty question will be frus-
trated because the proposed legislation
will take the form of a simple joint resolu-
tion of approval which would not be sub.
ject to amendment in either house. Sena-
tor Lodge said that the adoption of the
Bacon amendment was merely an expe.
dient designed to disarm an opposing fac.
tioE which maintained that on constitu-
tional grounds the senate could not ratify
the treaty without the approval of the
house. The expedient had accomplished
it's end, and now, in the judgment of the
senator, there was little possibility of fur
ther delay.

CAUGHT The PIGEON
Patrolman Foxs Prisoner Alleged to
Have Been Two Detectives
Decoy.
They Caught the Other Man Easily
Some Nice Questions
Raised.

To what extent are detectives in the
employ Of the city entitled to use stool
pigeons in catching criminals and what
is the status Of the stool pigeon?
These are questions that may sbe settled
when William Catlin and David Gullick-
son are arraigned in court tomorrow.
Catlin was arrested last night emerging
from the saloon of A. F. Rioux, "a Cen
trail avenue, by Detectives German and
Vaughn. while Gullickson, who was Cat
Inns partner, was picked up few min
utes later by PatrOlman Peter Fox of the
East Side station. 1t now transpires that
Gullickson was the detectives "stool
pigeon but Patrolman Fox says he will
appear against him. .
The officers heard that Catlin was con-
templating turning some tricks on the
East Side and they induced Gullickson to
engage in the affair with Catlin. The two
planned to- raid the saloon of A. F.
Rioux last night. The detectives planted
themselves in the rear and when Catlin
emerged he was arrested. He had taken
nothing. ~
Catlin, on the other hand, says he was
with Gullickson last night and Gullickson
pried open the rear window of the saloon
and came through and opened the front
door and let him in. When he entered,
going there, found both officers with their
revolvers pointed at him. He treated the
matter as a joke and went along with
them only to find that he was to be
locked up on a charge Of burglary.
!. Gulickson started away after Catlin had
entered the saloon. Patrolman Fox fol-
lowed and arrested him. He is held at
the central police station while his case
is investigated. He has been under ar
rest several times before. 3.-.~.
+ Orders were issued to-day to prevent
reporters from interviewing Gullickson
but all he had to say TO the officers was
II want to see German and Vaughn. They
will have to fix this matter in some
| way" b
Catlin has been steady worker, hav-
| ing been employed by the Boyd Transfer
| company, for several months. He has
never been in trouble before.
