WOMAN'S WORK Is IN
THE HOME CIRCLE
Bishop Grant EuIoaizes the Mother
and Housekeeper.

Woman and Her Work" was the
subject of an address delivered by
Bishop Abraham Grant of the st. Paul
diocese, at the st. James African nj. h.
church last night.
The bishop commenced his ADDRESS
by laying stress on the importance
of the missionary work in which the
women of the church were taking such
an active part. and then went on to
point out the necessity for woman to
keep her proper place in the worlds
work He deplored the craving that
many women have for public life,
and maintained that woman's sphere
was eminently the home. He showed
that there were many ways whereby
she could do her life's work more eff
fectively there than in any other
place, and wound up his address by
stating that he considered the noblest
work that can be performed by a wom-
an is the rearing of son or daughter
to the age of twenty-one as a pure
minded. law abiding citizen.
The bishop will preach the sermon
at ST. James church tomorrow morn
ing, and in the afternoon he will as

PHALFN PARK IS
TO HAVE BATHS
Water Board Agrees to Use of
Round Lake for Aquatic
Sports.

The park board will be given the use
of Round lake for bathing and aquatic
sports. The question was settled yes
terday afternoon at the meeting of the
water board, when resolution giving
the park board the privileges asked for
was passed.
Heretofore the water board has re-
fused to permit the park board to take
charge of Round lake for bathing pur-
poses for the reason that Round lake
was connected with Lake Phalen,
which is one of the city's sources of
water supply, but an agreement has
been reached whereby the park board
agrees to construct dixie or boulevard
between the two bodies of water. 1t
is planned to make the roadway sixty
feet wide and three feet above the high
water mark. thus eliminating any
chance whatever of the contamination
of Lake Phalen by reason of the bath
ing in Round lake.
The water board has decided to en-
force the most stringent rules and reg.
ulations regulating the use of boats on
Lake Phalen. Throwing of paper or
waste of any kind into the water will
be prohibited. and persons securing the
boats will be prohibited from taking
any lunch into the boats.
IL was expected that the water board
would yesterday adopt the contract
with the street railway whereby the
latter is granted years time in which
to remedy electrical conditions, which
have heretofore caused much injury to
the city's water mains. and which were
responsible for what is known as the
electrolysis suit, now pending in court
but on account of the absence from the
city of1Me D.. Mum, the legal repre-
sentative soft the street railway com.
pany, the matter went over until later.
By the terms of this contract the city
agrees to not push it's suit against the
company. it being understood that the
company viii have the desired changes
in its, system completed within the
year. The street railway company
agrees to pay all expenses of the delay,
which will amount to between $4,000
and $4,000.

ening Channel-Work of
Drainage Board.

At meeting of the state drainage
board held yesterday in the Office of
the governor the contract for the first
of the cutoff bitches planned to
shorten and straighten the channel of
Wild Rice river in Norman county,
was awarded to Messrs. Bell and
Roesch, farmers of that vicinity.
These men agree to do the work at
odd times for 8. cents per cubic yard.
The Wild Rice river in this particular
locality follows a very devious course
and to that is attributed the fact that
it's current is sluggish and at frequent
intervals OverfiowS the banks. At the
point in question there is a bend Of
three miles which will be entirely cut
off by the digging of a new ditch
three quarters of a mile in length.
At the last meeting bids of 10 cents
and higher for the work on the Good
jected as too high. Yesterday Mr..
Ralph, engineer of the board, re-
ported that he had received an offer
from Anton Amundson, of st. Hilaire,
to do the work for IL cents per cubic
yard, which will make the total cost
$4,000. The board awarded the con-
tract to Mr. Amundson.
The board approved estimates
amounting to $1,000 for work now I'M
der way ana a1OWeQ the engineer >
salary for July, which is $3.50.
Mr.. Ralph reported that the work Of
this year has been carried forward
without interruption from bad weather
or other causes and that it will all be
completed in contract time, thus per-
hitting the board to make a fresh
start next season. The total cost of
the work contracted for thus far is
estimated at $4,000. The amount of
the appropriation for this year is
$4,000.

The barn in the rear Of ISL West

COUNTY'S RECORDS
TO BE PROTECTED
Register Fitzgerald Is at Last
Granted Seclusion From
AbStractors.

After repeated efforts for eighteen
months Register of Deeds M. w. Fitz-
gerald is to be allowed a partition in
his office that his deputies may not be
bothered by the abstractors and others
who frequent the office for the pur-
pose of going through the records.
The joint court house and city han
commission, fearing Mr.. Fitzgerald
would make good his threat to exclude
the abstractors from his office alto
gether, passed a resolution yesterday
afternoon providing for the. improve
ments demanded by the register OF
deeds.
Some time ago Mr.. Fitzgerald tired
of his repeated attempts to have the
commission make the changes he de-
sired in his office, and two weeks ago
he took matters in his own hands, and
in a letter addressed to the joint COM
mission threatened to eject from his
office the three abstractors who occupy
desks there free of charge. The only
condition on which Mr.. Ntzgerald
would permit the men to remain In his
office was the construction of partl-
ton which would separate them from
his deputies.
He gave the, board until Aug. is to
decide whether or not to put in the
partition or have the abstractors
thrown out and the commission yes
terday decided to place the partition in
at once.
81 am willing . accommodate the
abstract companies" said Mr. Fitz-
gerald, "but I will not have them in
terfering with my own deputies, and 1T
was to protect my own interests that L
demanded some change whereby my
deputies would be isolated from the
people who come into the office ito look
over the records and from those whom,
l have permitted to occupy desk room
there I have the authority to refuge
the privileges have been granting the
abstract companies, but so long as my
own clerks are not bothered | am Will
ing to accommodate them"
For more than year and half Mr..
Fitzgerald has been attempting to have
a partition placed in his office, and
while the change would require an ex-
penditure of less than 5000 the joint
commission has declined to act. and it
was not until the register of deeds
threatened to eject the abstractors,
which brought the real estate men to
his back, that the commission deemed
it necessary to act.

Plans for the entertainment of the
thousands Of visitors who are expected
in st. Paul during the fourth annual
reunion of the National society, Army

cussed at a meeting of the members
of Camp Merwin M. Carlton at the
rooms of the Lincoln club in the Endi-
colt building last night.
There was a large attendance at the
meeting and the progress reported by
the various committees gave the men,
bers of the camp much encourage
ment. The principal matter Of discus
sion at last nights meeting was the
means of raising the funds which will
be necessary for the entertainment Of
the visitors. 1t is anticipated that at
least 5000 people will be attracted here
by the reunion, and between $4,000
and $4,000 will be required to pay the
expenses of the reunion, which the
local camp expects to make the most
successful of any yet held.
Some money has already been raised
by means of steamboat excursions, but
the principal portion of the amount
will have to be raised by subscription,
and committees will soon commence
an active canvass for the funds.

"On my return I was on a train
which passed through Lowell within
half an hour after the disastrous ex-
plosion at the United States Cartridge
company's plant at South Lowell. The
devastation was appalling, and the ex-
citement among the passengers on the
train when we passed the wreck was
most extreme. The sight of the de-
molished structures was something I
shall never forget Windows in all the
houses near the works seemed to have
been shattered.

good as they are out here. Every
one is busy and all are happy"
