MEASURES FAVORED
Ordinance Regulating Street
Car Stops Endorsed

Reuben Warmer Jr. yesterday secured
from the committee on streets of the
board of aldermen a favorable report
ON the ordinance regulating the points
at winch the street cars shall stop, APP
pear1ng as president of the board of
fire commissioners and insisting that
the measure was just and proper.
The vote of the committee was unani-
nous, those present being Messrs.
Bantz, Corning, Moriarty and Rohland,
although Mr.. Corning objected to some
of the provisions Of the measure. .
Fire Commissioner Warner went over
the provisions of the measure and as
sured the aldermen that the arguments
Of the superintendent of the street rail-
way company had failed to convince
him of the need for vital amendments.
He believed that the measure was for
the benefit of all persons concerned,
Including the public, and did not think
formal written agreement with the
street railway company would answer
the purpose. If an agreement was de-
pended upon there would be nothing
by which the provisions could be en-
forced, and it yet renal ned for the
company to- point out one point max
ing the agreement preferable to the or
dinance. 29%
Supt. Bur6iek had but little to say.
One objection to the measure was that
it gave the police power to take a man
from a ear If he failed to, obey the or
dinance. He also objected to two stops
provided for.
Messrs. Bantz and Rohland could not
distinguish the distinction between an
agreement and an ordinance, declaring
that If the company was ready and
willing to make the agreement it should
also allow the passage OF the ordi-
nance without objection: Chairman
Moriarty did not believe that the COM
pany had made a case. and declared
that the council owed a courtesy to the

Besides those enumerated there are
numerous outstanding claims, the larg-
est of these being against the railroad
companies. These are estimated at
about $4,000. thus bringing the total
credits up to little over 5000, 900,
which is about $4,000 less than the
total last year. Considering the in
clement weather Secretary Randall re-
CARDS this as an excellent showing.
Among the improvements ordered is
a new fire engine house for the use OF
the St. Paul fire department at a cost
of $4,000. A similar one, was erected
for the .Minnea polls department last
year. As the race entries have in
creased greatly every year, the board
has decided to erect. another speed
barn, making a total of seven on the
grounds. Another half mile Of cement
sidewalks will be laid within the
grounds at a cost of $780, The work
on the walks will begin at once, and
when completed. will make a total of
over three miles within the grounds.
1t was also voted to have new roofs
built on the, old speed barns and pad
dock.

THREE CAPE TOWNS PROFIT
Yearly Income Realized Through
Finding Of Rich Quahang Bed

Because two fishermen seeking qua
haugs lost their bearings in a fog the
towns of Orleans, Wellheet and Esthem
are made richer each year to the extent
of more than $4,000, says an Orleans
(Mass.) report
For years the fishermen sought qua
haugs only when there was nothing elese
to do. Two brothers pushed of the Or

haugs as possible, seeing in this the only
way to avoid disappointment to the loved
ones at home.
The men became lost in the fog and in
despair threw over the anchor. They
knew by the depth that they were far
from where they usually fished.
In desperation one threw over his
rake. and when it came up it contained
more than the men had ever taken in by
one raking. Time and time again this
was repeated until before night the boat
was filed. AS the fog cleared they made
for home, having first taken their bear
ings.
When the men landed they told their
fellow fishermen Of their luck. and to-
day 100 boats, carrying nearly 300 men.

JEWISH PREACHERS SCARCE
Always More Positions Open to Rah-
bis Than There Are Ap-
plicants For.

The other night several of the rabbis
who are here attending the Central
Conference Of American Rabbis were
discussing the great scarcity Of Jewish
ministers of the Gospel. says the Louis
vile Herald.
1T seems passing strange" said one
Of the most prominent Of the rabbis.
that there are always more positions
than there are preachers in the Jewlsh
church. This is not true OF other re-
ligions, and from conditions existing It
would seem that just the reverse condi-
tiOn would be true.
In the first place Jewish preachers
are paid better than those OF any other
denomination. Even the youngest
preacher gets a salary which the av-
erage Christian preacher waits many
years to earn.
Another thing Is that the work Of
a rabbi is not usually SO arduous IN
point of conducting services as that Of
the Christian minister. The services
are not 50 frequent nor so long. Fur
thermore. they are always simple.
"In spite Of this there are hundreds
of cities Of considerable size in this
country which are hungering for a rsb-
bi. WheL the students Of the Hebrew
Union college, Of Cincinnati. are grad
uated they always have six or seven
hne positions offered to them.
Possibly the solution Of this is that
the bright young Jewish men take
more readfly to the other professions
where the emolument is greater and
into which they can enter quicker
