the duties he owed his clients and

1886, was admitted to the bar at
Boonville, Missouri, in 1863 and has
resided in Lexington since 1872. He
practiced in our courts until several
years ago, his falling health compelled
him to contine his practice to his
Office. Major Chandler served as d
soldier In the Mexicau war, and was
an officer 10 the confederate army
being the first major appointed by
Governor Claiborne Jackson 10 1861
He was kind and courteous and PROUD
OF the success Of the members OF oul

NEW DINERS ON THE 500
Artistic, Comfortable and Conven-
lent Equipment Placed in West
Bound Service To-day,

Attached to the soos west bound
transcOntinental train this morning was
dining car LOO. The car is fresh from
the Shoreham shops and is bright, COM
Portable and attractive from end to end.
1t represents first what the 500 aims to
do with it's new 1903 equipment for the
comfort of the travelling public and sec
ond, what local car shops can do in the
way of modern car building. No better
piece of rolling stock than No. 100 ever
pulled out of a Minneapolis station. The
linen, silver and cutlery is all new, set
off by sparkling glassware and the dull
st. Jage. mahogany interior finish. The
head lining Of the car is olive green can
vas. the arrangement of. the pantry,
kitchen, refrigerators and chill boxes is
new and most complete. 49,.
The dining chairs Of mahogany are
fitted with springs under the leather up
holstery. This affords a comfortable seat
and a firm clutch in case of a sudden
lurch. something which can rarely oc-
cur however. with the new arrangement
of full vestibules with steel PLATFORM To
prevent telescoping in case of accident
steel "T' beams have been carried back
from the platform half through the bed
Of the car. A train running at sixty
miles an hour would fare badly in tele-
scoping collision with LOO.
The opposite diner was started from
Fessenden, N. D., and will arrive to-
morrow. Cars running from Minneapolis
will serve dinner and supper, and return
ing next day breakfast and noon dinner. =

CITY NEWS : i
DR.. ILLlNG ]. FOR R. DATA Y A
Preliminary Work on the Street
Railway company's Subway
Has Been Resumed. .
Behring'S Being Made on Lower Hen
nepin Where the Subway
Will Run.

The street railway company Is again
boring for data as to the strata underlying
Hennepin avenue. Investigations were
made last year at Hennepin and Tenth
street. This morning work began at
Hennepin and Washington.
The man at the drill is like a sphinx
when asked what he means by boring an
artesian we'll in the middle of a thorough
fare; the engineer tells nothing but the
pressure of the boiler. Crowds surround
the derrick and speculate as to who has
found oil on Hennepin.
The street railway company plans a
subway through which feed wires from the
Quoted from the west end of the steel
park. From that point the lines can be
carried out to the Thirty first street
power-house or wherever wanted in
smaller underground conduits.
The subway will be large enough for a
workman to walk through, and may be as
far underground fifty feet. This depth
will be determined when the thickness of
the sandstone is determined. The length
of the subway will depend on the extent of
the ledge.
The city engineers office has on file
facts in regard to the strata underlying
certain parts Of the city. For some rea-
son no data exists as to the conditions
beneath lower Hennepn. Well diggers
and others who have bored in this part
of the city failed to record the complexion
Of the borings. The street railway inves-
legations at this point will serve the city
as we'll as the cOmpany's own engineers.

He Does Not Believe That Vice
Should Have It's Section

New York Sun Special Service.

NEW xofk BUN special 0oTV1ces
Chicago, Jan. 19.-Dr. Lyman Abbott
disagreed yesterday in his sermon at the
University of Chicago, with the PROPOSE
ton made by DR.. E. Benjamin Andrews
last summer, that it would be a good thing
for the city of Chicago if all immoral
women were set apart and placed on some
island in Lake Michigan. DR.. Abbott
said that separating the good from the
evil was not the way to put down vice.
Some people PROPOSE" he said to a
large audience in Kent theater, Ito put
rich brownstone' fronts in one section Of
the city, fine, big churches in the Same
section, and gather all the immoral wom-
en- together and put them down in another
section. This idea is all wrong at the
bottom. God does not mean to Danish sin
to one section of the city or a nation and
leave it there to tester and finally con-
taminate all else. We, are not here to
Danish sin, nor are weNlere to compromise
or, reform. We are here to stamp sin
under foot, to crush it. That is the only
way to get rid Of it.. T can believe in
eternal suffering but + cannot believe in

ARTS AND CRAFTS EXHIBIT
Additional Features Secured for Exhibit
Opening Tonight, Including Work

The most sumptuOuS and fascinating
pieces Of art craftsmanship shown in the
extensive exhibition Of arts and crafts in
Chicago in December were the, work of
Charles Eaton of Santa Barbara, Cal. 1t
was feared for a time that the Mime
apolis Arts and Crafts society would be
unable to secure a collection of his work,
but on the contrary it is to have a large
and varied collection of his choice pieces
All that was left of the Chicago collection
has been entered and telegram has been
received saying that three more cases are
on their way from California. Mr.. Eaton's
work is wholly new to fasteners, as it had
never been exhibited east of the Rocky
mountains until it was sent to Chicago
His boxes, chests and cases are marvels
Of fine workmanship and cunning contriv-
ances for economy of space, as we'll as
beautiful illustrations of unique decora-
tion. He works in wood, leather, metals
and jewels, often combining all Of these
materials in a single piece. His collection
will include such articles as chests, jewel
caskets, screens, writing desks, writing
pads, blotters, card cases, golf and we'd
ding books. . ,~
A. local lean exhibition that is not cata-
logued is of beadwork and it will hold an
interest for many visitors not equaled by
any Of the elaborate modern examples of
highly trained and diversified craftsman
ship. The display is chiefly of very old
pieces, some of them extending back to
colonial days. That so many fine exam
pies of this popular form of fancy work
should be found among the treasured heir
looms Of Minneapolis people was sur
prise even to those who undertook to COL
lect it. There are besides the beautiful
old pieces with their quaint patterns a
fine specimen Of Indian beadworl1, lent
by Mrs. Howard Abobtt and some rich
modern pieces
Already much regret is expressed that
the exhibition Is to last such
a short tine-only five days-for many
would gladly have opportunity of visiting
the collection several times in order to
examine the work in detail. The work of
managing an exhibition even for short
time is very heavy ard the limited mem
bership of the Arts and Crafts society
makes the care Of the exhibition a serious
tax on the time and strength OF the mem
bers.
The exhibition will open to might with
q private view and will be open to the
public the rest Of the week from 10 a. m.
to 10 p. m. daily. No admission fee is
cha roed
