EGYPT AS SEEN BY DIR.
WRIGHT, OF ST. PAUL'S
He Describes In Illustrated Lectures Con-
ditlcns Past and Present.

Rev. John Wright, of st. PauFs church,
last evening, in the Guild chapel, deliver
ed an Illustrated lecture on Egypt show
ing with 100 slides and his explanations
ancient and modern Alexandria, Cairo and
various sights along the Nile. The pic
habltants of the ancient country, the
Arabs, who have assumed dominion; the
Coptics, who are the descendants of the
ancient Egyptians; the Nubians and the
dwellers of the Upper Nile.
The difference between the Egyptian
and Arabic architecture was shown in the
exhibition of temples. mosques. palaces
how the modes of agriculture have re-
manned practically the same since the
days of the Pharoahs, the only changes
being those due to the recent introduction
of agricultural implements. The modern
improvements are seen in the cultivation
of cotton and sugar cane.
The pictures of the bazaars Of Cairo
and Alexandria gave a vivid conception of
the wares that are so tempting to the
travellers of the Orient. and illustrated
the Egyptian methods of conducting bus
mess.
The most interesting phase brought out
by Dr. Wright was the contrast between
ton and the different results they pro-
duce. The efforts of Christian mission
aries to introduce modern educational
methods have met with considerable sue
cess and have produced much good.
Pictures of children entering the schools
that have recently been founded were
displayed The children were shown to
be ragged and unkempt. Six months af-
ter entering the same children were pho
tographed and no one would recognize
them as being the same, so great a change
bad the school produced in them.

ELEVATOR FALLS,
WOMAN JARRED
Schubert Club Members Meet
With Exciting Experience
at 0deOn Hall.

Laden with Schubert club members
the elevator in the Odeon building fell
yesterday from the second to the
ground floor. No one was injured, but
the women received a most severe
jolting and the noise of the elevators
falling created something Of a panic
amount the large crowd of women who
were making their exit from the hall
after having attended the recital given
by the student members of the club.
The auditorium is on the second floor,
but the space between the two floors
is very deep, indeed, it amounts to a
story and a half, so that it is rather
surprising that the passengers escaped
serious injury.
All of the Schubert club recitals
have been held in the Odeon this win
ter, and while q number of the mem
bers walk down the two flights of stairs
after the concerts are over, by far the
larger number wait for the elevator.
Sometimes as many as $50 women at
tend these recitals, so that the elevator
is often taxed to accommodate those
who wish to reach the ground floor as
quickly as possible.
The strain produced by the over
and the fall was the result. 1t was the
first load that received the shock of the
fall yesterday, and those who were
waiting on the second floor experienced
few moments of lively suspense be-
fore they learned that their friends had
sustained no injury.

BELTRAMI VOTERS
READY TO TEST LAW
Supreme Court Is to Pass on Writ in
Clearwater County JanbIe Today.

The writ of quo warranto issued by
the supreme court in the Clearwater
county jangle is returnable today The
new county was organized out of Bel
trami county, with Bagley as the coun-
ty seat, after being voted on at the
last election. The county officials of
Beltrami county, as well as number
of the residents and property owners
at Bemidji, have raised the question as
to the legality of the vote by which the
new county was organized.
1t is claimed by those opposed to the
organization of the new county that
the proposition did not receive a suffi-
cient number of votes and this point
involves the construction of the law Of
1893 relating to the vote necessary to
carry a proposition for the creation and
organization of new counties.
1t was stated last night that the
hearing would go over until the April
term of the supreme court, as the pres
ent term would close next week and the
court did not care to hear the argu
ments just at the close of the term.

COMPARES ART IN EAST
WITH THAT OF WEST
Prof. Feno!losa Employs Two Stere.
opticons to Show the Difference.

Two stereopticons were employed
last evening by Prof. Fenollosa in his
lecture on "A General Comparison Of
European and Asiatic Art to show not
only the contrasts, but also the sur
prising likenesses between the art Of
the far East and of the West.
Beginning with the very earliest pc
Rod of Japanese art the lecturer con-
tinued the comparison down to the
present day. The pictures included
views of paintings, of statuary, Of re-
lfefs, of illumined missals and various
views of the architecture of the differ
ent periods. The Central high school
hall was filled.
The final lecture in the course will be
delivered Saturday afternoon. The sub
ject will be THE Universal Laws of
Structure in Art and the Way to Teach
Them in Modern Art Education

A REBUILT LAWYER.
Food That Put Him Right.

1t is easy to correct the bad effect of
wrong eating if one will give 1t a little
thought. Scientific food is just as pleas
ant to the palate, and in the case Of
Grape-Nuts, is more delicious than i'm
proper food and it makes a world Of
difference in health and spirits.
Some three months ago. writes Mr..
E. L. Saunders, of Boston, Mass 'T
suffered terribly with indigestion; all
kinds of food distressed me; sometimes
had a feeling of Suffocation about the
heart, especially at night. My sleep
was broken and l lost flesh rapidly.
commenced using Grape Nuts and
the relief from indigestion was almost
immediate, and in g short time entirely
disappeared; my heart resumed it's
normal condition and l attribute the
cure entirely to Grape Nuts.
well known lawyer of this city told
me that he suffered from excessive
nervousness, and before entering the
court room to try a case was obliged to
resort to stimulants. I urged him to
try Grape-NutS which he did with al
most marvellous results; he not only
gained flesh, but the nervousness left
and his former strength and confidence
returned.
I am convinced that Grape Nuts
gives strength to the body and yigor
to the brain. 1t is worthy of the high
est praise and l will cheerfulIy answer
all letters seeking information in re-
gard to the food Remember Grape
Nuts food is most emphatically not a
medicated food in any sense Of the
term; it is made of wheat and barley
by scientific processes and the only
reason it helps cure people is that they
quit improper food and take a food in
which the strong brain and nerve
building elements of Natures grains
are preserved and presented to the d.
gestive machinery in a form than can
be quickly and surely digested.

WILL HEAR ADVOCATES
OF OWL CAR MEASURE
Ordinance to Be Considered by Alder
manic Committee This Afternoon.

'Owl car" advocates, it is expected,
will be present in considerable numbers
at the meeting of the committee on
streets of the board of aldermen at 4
o'clock this afternoon. The measure
will come up for consideration and
free discussion of it's merits will be
permitted.
The late car scheme has the sane
ton of everyone working at night, and
as these number fully 5000, it is hardly
expected that any attempt will be made
to sidetrack it without first consider
ing their needs.
The street car company Is now en-
gagged in a vigorous canvass to have
the ordinance killed. This opposition
has brought to the front a few who
advise a compromise, fixing 2:30 o'clock
as the hour for the last car instead of
1 o'clock as is now the schedule, but
such an arrangement would in no way
satisfy the advocates of the ordinance

VOICES TOLD HIM
TO KILL DAUGHTER
Ole G. Oleson Now Wants
Pardon Board to Save
Him From Hangman.

Among the cases to be considered by
Saturday is that OF Ole G. Oleson, of
of death for the killing of his daughter.
Oleson, who is a widower, sent to the
old country for his daughter and paid
something like 500 to secure her pas
sage and railroad ticket to his home
near Aitkin. Within few months Of
her arrival she fell in love with a
young farmer in the neighborhood and
was engaged to marry him.
The day before the wedding Oleson
thrust large butcher knife into his
daughters heart, killing her instantly.
He then hitched up a team and drove
to Aitkin, where he delivered himself
to the sheriff. The explanation offered
by Oleson at the time was that he did
not know what he was doing and that
voices told him he must kill his daugh-
ter.
Oleson now asks that the sentence of
death which was pronounced on him
Oct. 29 last be committed to imprison-
ment for life.
The case of Henderson, the negro
who murdered Addie Perry, his COM
mon law wife at Duluth, and is under
sentence of death, will also be consid-
cred by the board Henderson asks for
a communication of his sentence to life
imprisonment
The application Of Cole Younger,
now on parole, for a conditional or I'M
conditional pardon in order that he
may return to his old home in Missouri.
is also to be considered by the board.
While the members of the pardon
board naturally decline to discuss the
probable action to be taken In the
Younger case, it is understood two Of
the members are in doubt as to the
propriety of granting pardon on the
ground that the effect might be detri-
mental to the youth of the country.
1t IS cofftended that the release Of
the once famous bandit and his return
to Missouri would mean three
months sensation In the newspapers;
that the case and all the sensational
features of the old James and Younger
gangs would be rehashed and the re-
suit would be Of incalculable harm.

ARTESIAN WELLSCUT
REVENUE OF WATER
DEPARTMENT
Estimated That It's Receipts
Are Reduced Thereby to
the Extent of $4,000 An
nually-Owners Of Wells
May Be Taxed to Help
Maintain Fire Protection.

Because of the numerous artes1an
wells now existing in ST. Paul, the city
water department estimates that It's
annual revenue is depleted to the eX-
tent of nearly $4,000. This involves
only consumers, who were patrons of
the department, but now receive their
supply through the medium of wells.
For its own information. the board
had chart of the wells in existence
prepared few days ago, and from
this the loss that the department is
annually sustaining was found. Besides
this, there are hundreds of wells of
wells of which the board has no knowl-
edge, so that to say the loss is nearer
$4,000, Secretary Caulfield thinks.
would be more correct.
Beneath st. Paul is a reservoir of
water the finest in the world, but how
long it will stand the drain now being
made upon it is impossible to tell. AT
any rate, the board has found that not
few of the wells have failed, and on
this it bases the hope that the big Of
flee buildings and factories will again
adorn its books as customers.
A peculiar illustration of the unre-
liability Of some of the wells lately
driven is found on the West side, where
no less than three have failed. These
three were located in an area possibly
four blocks in extent, and in each in
stance the driving of one exhausted the
other. Each we'll put in robs the other
of It's supply of water. 1t is supposed
that In this particular section a pocket
exists. and It's exhaustion follows the
level at which each we'll is driven.
If the number of wells continues to
increase, steps may be taken to secure
legislation that will compel the owners
thereof to pay tax, the same to be
applied towards the maintenance OF
fire protection for their particular
properties. AS matters now stand
hardly one of the big Office buildings
pay cent toward the maintenance OF
the water department. The revenue is
derived entirely from small consumers

ORDER DOOR LOCKS
FOR CITY HALL LIFTS
Enforcement of Law Requiring Devices
on All Elevators Is to Follow.

The ordinance requiring the use of
interlocking devices on all passenger
elevators in the city is to be enforced
by the city building department.
The joint court house and city hall
committee on grounds and buildings
will meet today to arrange for the
equipment Of the elevators In the city
hall with the new devices, after which
the ordinance will be rigidly enforced.
The ordinaneeswas passed some time
ago, but has been a dead letter so far
as it's enforcement is concerned. The
building department was not in posi-
ton to enforce the law so long as the
elevators in the city hall were not
equipped, and in order that the erdi-
nance might be enforced, the elevators
in the city building will be fitted out at
once.
