Rev. Clement G.. Clarke was formally
installed as pastor of the First Congre-
gational church last evening in spite
of the fact that certain Of his views
were pronounced unorthodox by the
council committee Of examination.
At the installation yesterday. the
usual examination. Of the candidate
with regard to his religious beliefs was
made by committed of the council.
On two matters Of Importance Mr..
Clarke differed radically from the COM
monty accepted orthodox beliefs. These
two points relate to the birth and res
direction of Christ. His stand in the
former matter tends to class him as
a liberal, inasmuch as it does not fully
recognize the divinity of Christ. In
the second matter, his belief is that it
was the spiritual rather than the phys
ical body that rose from the dead.
The report Of the committee unani-
mously adopted by the council makes
it clear that Mr.. Clarke s views are
not taken as representing the Congre-
gational church in its commonly accept
ed beliefs, and the acceptance was
based on appreciation Of his ability. and

SEEKS BEST EQUALIzERS
GOVERNOR JOHNSON NOT PARTI-
IAN IN MAKING UP LIST FOR
TAX BOARD.

Governor Johnson IS appointments to
places on the state board of equaliza-
tion will be announced in few days.
The list is practically made up, but
some time is required to get favorable
responses from all the men selected.
It is limited that there will be some
surprises in the list. The governor is
ord this year and next, and to that end
is trying to get the most high-class
men who will serve. Several men have
been invited, to serve who already have
statewide regulations, either as au-
thorities on taxation or on public ques-
tions generally.
1t is taken for granted that major
will be democrats, but the board will
not be entirely partizan. In at least
one case it is said that place has been
rendered to man who opposed johnson
strenuously last fall. ~.
The terms of one-half the board mem
bers expire this year, those from the
even-numbered judicial districts. Both
the Minneapolis and ST.. Paul members
will retire, and there is considerable in
terest in the appointments from those
| two districts. Minneapolis business
men are anxious that some one be
named on the board who will stand up
for the rights Of the city and oppose
unreasonable increases. The name Of
the probable appointee has not been di
vulged, however.
| The members Of the board whose
terms have expired are: H. w. Fagley
ST.. Paul; Emerson Cole, Minneapolis
Nels J. Nelson, West Sweadahl, Walton
wan county; Fred Greiner, Chaska
Truels Paulson, Spring Grove, Houston
county; I. L.: Philley, Louisberg, Lat

Intosh, Polk county; G. G: Thorp, Han
cock, Stevens county, and Daniel An

AN EQUESTRIAN FROI.IC
Thrilling Partisan Novelty introduced
in Forepaugh-Se Circus. %

At last novelty has arrived in the
way Of bareback riding. 1t even goes
SO far as to interpret dramatic sketch
a-horseback. To the great Adam Fore
paugh and Sells Brothers circus, which
will be in Minneapolis June 5, is due
this refreshing innovation. A gaily
dressed and buoyant party Of young
people on their way to the "French
Derby,'' in a radiantly fashionable park
drag, drawn by four spirited horses, are
the participants in this unique and
thrilling act.
These smartly gowned young people
perform wonderful feats in an apparent
spirit Of youthful abandonment. They
| toss each other from the farthest seat
of the splendid trap to the foremost
horses back, with the graceful ease of
twirling ball, and revolve from each
others hands and shoulders to an up
right position upon the swiftly moving
vehicle or horse. They pass each Other
high in the air in twisting evolutions
from wagon to horse and horse tc
wagon. Gymnastic turns of the most
difficulty and rarity are enacted BY
them in these hazardous positions with
! the same graceful ease and nicely Of
precision that characterizes the mos
| thrilling work Of world-renowned per
| formers upon the secure foundation o1
the ground.

tionally startling, and is called uOn tn,

STANFORD CASE
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO. March 26.-It was
announced at police headquarters to-
day that every known clue in the
Stanford case had been run to earth,
and that the complexion of the mat
ter had not changed in the least. Barr
ing a confession or something turn
ing up" the police admit that they
will never solve the mystery of how
on January IA in this city strychnine
poison was placed in the Poland water
used by the late Mrs. Stanford. That
portion of the mystery connected with
her tragic death in Honolulu, the po-
lice say, has been solved on the theory
that Mrs. Stanford died by natural
causes, and that the powdered strych-
nine found in the bicarbonate of soda
at Honolulu was placed there in India
by some druggist and intended as a
tonic.
The police detectives working on the
case have all turned their attention to
other matters, and while nominally
men are detailed on the case, in reality
the department has entirely dropped it,.

No Collision Between Troops Of the
Opposing Armies

BY Associated Press.
GUNSHI PASS, March 26.-Every-
where along the front there is COM
plete and ominous quiet. No collisions
have been reported today.
A nurse arriving from Mukden to-
day states that the reports by Chinese
of ill-treatment of Russian sick and
wounded after the evacuation Of Muk-
den are entirely unfounded. The Jap
anese treated all who fell into their
hands in the most kindly manner and
gave the nurses permission to return
to the Russian army. saying there were
no women of that avocation with the
advanced columns.
They provided the nurses with Gre
dentials indicated the roads by which
they might travel and warned them
that they might be under fire west Of
the railway. Several doctors, sisters
and attendants remained with the
wounded at Mukden.
