Columbus Harris colored, who was ar

by Sergt. Bremmerman and held to answer
a charge of carrying a loaded revolver, as
stated in The Star, was arraigned before
Judge Scott this morning. He told the
court he had worked on Long Island grow

purchased the revolver two years ago.

"Why would they want to jump upon

why do they want to jump on other
people?" the prisoner retorted.
Judge Scott explained that the law IN
this city Is such that he would probably
have to serve six months on the farm un-
less he could pay fine of $50 or more.
THAT would be rather rough on me-"
said Harris.

He added. however, that he did not want
to go away until after the inauguration.

STATUE FOR LEW WALLACE.
Bill introduced for Same in the In
diana Senate.

In the Indiana senate at indianapolis yes
terday Senator Moore of Putnam and Mont
gomery counties introduced bill to put
statue of Gen. Lew Wallace in statuary hall
at Washington, d. c., and moved to sus-
pend the constitutional rules. Though twen-
ty-eight senators voted for the motion and
only eight against, it failed because two
thirds vote of all senator's was necessary.
and the bill was referred to the committee
on finance. The failure to suspend the rules
resulted from the absence of several repub-
lican senators, there being enough to sus-
pend when all are present. The democrats
voted against suspension of the rules. The
bill appropriates 5000 and provides that II
shall not be available until 1907. 1t provides
that a board of three shall have charge OF
the work. The board shall be appointed by
the governor, but it is provided that one
member shall be selected by the widow ana
family of General Wallace.

A Clever Society Comedy.

Life says: Had Harold MacGrath's story
of Washington escapade, The Man on
the Box been written for the stage and

clean, spirited and clever society comedy,
and in book form it deserves less COM
plimentary a rating. The author seems to
have been in the best of humor with him
self, his characters and his audience, and
takes US into his confidence with an en-
gaging unconventionality which almost
goes to the point of winking at over the

has received nearly $4,000 in past
years from this outside source.
The National society has a great
debt on hand at the present time
and therefore must curtail ex-
penses in this and other states.
The churches here in North Da-
kota need to exemplify more and
more the spirit Of fellowship,
and must do more to aid them
selves. Supt. Stickney spoke Of
the army of people coming into.
North Dakota and the need of
pressing forward in religious
work among these thousands of
newcomers. There are 500.
miles of railroads being built in
the state, and 40 or more towns
are springing up so rapidly that
the maps cannot keep up with
them. There are places of sew
eral hundred population without
preaching services of any de-
scription, and many new oppor-
tunities for churches.
The afternoon meeting was
partly devoted to the women.
The paper written by Mrs. f..
M. Hubbell, of Mayville, was a
very suggestive one. She was
not present, but the essay was
presented by another. A plea for
the Mission band was made, af-
ter which Rev. G.. B. Barnes, of
Valley City, gave an address up
on The American Board and

the cold. A lively discussion
followed, participated in by
many Of the brethren.
The evening session brought a
church full of people to listen
with much interest to the associ-
alton sermon, which was preach
ed by Rev. George Davies, of
Hillsboro. He cautioned his
hearers against thinking that
they know all thatis to be known.
He who thus thinketh knows
nothing as he ought to know it.
Our views of certain truths may
change, but the facts of the sin,
of redemption, of the atonement,
and other. verities are eternally
true, and nothing should cause
one to neglect salvation. Higher
criticism will never change these
verities, though it has a valuable
! place in throwing light on GER
tain portions of the scriptures.
The sermon WAS closely followed
by appreciative hearers. Then
followed the Communion service,
administered by Rev. S. E. Fish
of the Getchell church, and Rev.
T. Rob't Elwell, of HARDWOOD. The
special music presented by home
talent, was thoroughly enjoyed,
the large choir aiding greatly in
the singing.
The new pastor-elect Of the
church at Hope, Rev. Mr.. Hitch
cock, who has just been gradual

At the business session Wed.

to hold the next convention at

23rd Annual Meet.

The 23rd annual meeting of
the Fargo association Of Congre-
gational churches convened in
the church in this city on Tues
day and Wednesday Of this week.
There was a good delegation
present as will be seen from the
list of pastors and representa-
tives given below. The conven-
ton began with a business ses-
sion at II o'clock Tuesday morn
ing, a preliminary devotional
service having first been held.
Rev. Geo. H. Davies, of Hillsboro,
was chosen moderator, the Sec
Rotary, Rev. E. H. Stickney, be-
ing a permanent officer. The
afternoon program was thor
oughly enjoyed by large audi
ence, the main discussion of the
afternoon being upon the Sun
day school. Rev. O. P. Champ
lain, Of Oriska. pointed out the
advantages of the Bible school as
q help to the knowledge of scrip
lures. Mr.. T. Robert Elwell, of
HARDWOOD, proved conclusively
that no institution does more to
promote the study of the Word
of God in the homes. Taking up
the subject in all historical way
he traced the development of
the Sunday school, and describ-
ed the inner workings of certain
large city schools of the present
day. These Goth century meth,
DDS are also applicable in many
of the smaller schools and such
use will doubtless be made OF
them in the near future.

vile, gave. a very bright, inter.
esting talk on the subject of the
Sunday school as a recruiting
agency for the church. In the
school of which he is superintend
ent, many children have united
with the church during the pas

remarks, but apparently he car
