church, Summit avenue and Cedar
street, yesterday afternoon the pro-
posed celebration in honor of the birth
day anniversary Of John Brown was
postponed to a later date. Instead
Rev. H. B. Taylor, Of the st. Paul

interesting address, taking for his sub

points that he announced were the
fundamental necessities to be able to
rejoice. First, task to do; second, a
good conscience5 third, friend to
help; fourth, ability to look at the
sunny side of. affairs. Rev. Taylor
demonstrated his ability to give voice
to terse sentences, saying among other
things
"A man who attempts to buy hap
piness more often purchases a bad
case of dyspepsia.
Another attempts to buy pleasure,
and enters the saddest class of peo-
ple-those sodden with pleasure.
If you are mean fellow it is only
a question of time until you hate your

rather than be served.

path remember that it comes from

It was decided that the club will
continue to meet every Sunday until
June. the effort to discontinue the
meetings May having been voted
down. At next Sundays meeting A

ARNOLD SUSPECTED
BY RETAIL DEALERS
Attempt to Amend Trading Stamp Or
dinance to Be investigated.

The retail dealers of the city op-
posed to trading stamps are inquiring
into the attitude of Frank Arnold, Re
publican candidate for the assembly,
and have discovered facts that viii
doubtless lead them to oppose his re-
election. At the last meeting of the
assembly Mr.. Arnold made an effort
to secure an amendment to the trad
ing stamp ordinance that would have
permitted at least one company to do
business without paying a license He
desired that the ordinance be SO amend
ed that the dealers can give out stamps
that were to be redeemed by them, and
some of the retail dealers believe that
the object was to invalidate the ordi-
nance.

STRAUSS RECITAL
TICKETS GOING FAST
Sale in ST. Paul Will Continue Until s
O'clock This Afternoon.

1t is gratifying to know that the st.
Paul sale OF seats for the DR.. Strauss
recital to be given at Plymouth church
in Minneapolis this evening, is very
large. The local sale which is at Overs
will be continued up to o'clock this
afternoon. No doNbt one feature which
has contributed to the sale has been
the fact that Plymouth church, located
at the corner of Nicollet avenue and
Eighth street, is but two blocks from
each interurhan line and is within easy
access to st. Paul people. Those talk
ing the Como line may leave the car
at Eighth street and those taking the
old interurban at Nicollet avenue, in
each case walking but two blocks.
The recital bids fair to be one Of the
leading musical events of the season.
