SHE WORKED FOR OTHERS
Miss McMurdy's Life, Which Ended
Wednesday, Was Useful One.

died of tuberculosis Aug. 9 in an Ocon-
omowoc sanatorium, was born in 1874
in a little brown house across the street
from the present site of the West. no.
tel. Her education :, was obtained in
the city schools, in Central high and
in the st. Cloud normal. Since her
graduation she has taught continuously
in the graded schools of the city. ex-
cept when doing postgraduate work IN
New York.
She united with Westminster church
in 1887 and has since been an invalu-
able worker in many of it's activities.
She was one of the organizers and
charter members of the senior Chris
tian Endeavor society, and was its
mainstay for years.
During the trying period after the
burning of the Seventh street church
she kept the young people from dis
banding and rallied them around her,
enlisting them in various kinds OF
Christian work.
She taught some time in Fairyiew
mission, and for five years has been
an efficient and tireless worker in Hope
chapel, serving the past three years as
intermediate superintendent. Her dom
inant purpose was work for others:
Her parents, DR.. and Mrs. R. s. NC

SOUTHSIDERS TO
BUILD A THEAIE'R|.
CORPORATION rs SOON TO BE
FORMED FOR THAT PURPOSE.
Building at Seven Corners to Cost
$4,000 Is Projected-Will Be oper-
ated as Regular Playhouse, but Will
Also Serve for Concerts and Other
Entertainments.

South Side business men have been
enlisted in a project to build a South
Side opera house, a building for theat-
rical and musical productions, to cost
$35, 900. The site favored is somewhere
about the Seven Corners, at Cedar and
Washington avenues. f.e..
Arne o. Field is the prime mover in
the enterprise, and has received so
much encouragement that a meeting
will be called in a few days to form
the corporation and take the first def
mite steps. 49, a.
South Side people have long been
anxious for some kind of an auditorium
or music hall. The. people of that, sec
tion of the city are unsteady inclined,
and have had difficulty in securing sat;
isfactory halls for the concerts and
other entertainments provided by their
musical societies. The idea of music
hall has finally become merged into the
present plan for a theater, which will
serve the purpose of South Side audi
torium and yet be on a paying basis:
The promoters intend that during most
of the season the place shall be run
steadily as a family theater, something
on the order of the Unique or the Ly-
ceum. It will also be available, how
ever, for concerts and other entertain
ments, and will unquestionably be pat
ronized literally by South Side people,
good many thousand of whom live in
easy walking distance Of the proposed
location, but are compelled to take the
street car always for a trip to the
amusement houses down town.

NORTHWESTERN FAVORITES IN

Traders in stocks who hung over the

The market strengthened and north
western favorites led it. Great North

140, and Twin City held at 11S. North

nothing like it ordinarily.

thousand or more boys and girls who
have been invited for trip thru Won
Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons Of
next week will be devoted to all the
boys and girls who are being cared for
by the benevolent and charitable organl
izations of the city.
To say that the children are delighted
with the prospects of whole after
noon at Wonderland is putting it very
mildly. Nothing counts with them now
till they arrive within the grounds of
Minneapolis great amusement park,
and they are going to be given the
entertainment Of their young lives. Not
only are the children going to be given
to Wonderland, but they are going to
have seven Of the leading attractions
inside the grounds turned over to them.
In addition to all this, special outdoor
entertainment, that will satisfy the
fondest hopes of the iveliest boy in
town, is to be provided during the
eventful afternoon. A circus is not to
be compared with the show that is to
be given the thousand or more children
who will be guests Of T h e j u n n |.
Here is galaxy Of attractions that will
up and whoop with joy:
The Scenic Railway. Shooting the
Chutes, the Laughing Gallery, the Car
roussel, the Old Mill, the Myth City,
and the Miniature Railway. The Jour.
nal Cadet band will be in attendance
and will furnish splendid program
during the afternoon.
"The boys and girls are talking
about nothing else," said Mother Sa:
vier, who is at the head of the Catholic
Orphan asylum, to a Journal man this
morning. "There will be at least q
hundred children from here, and they
can hardly wait for the afternoon to ar
rive. It is going to be a great event
for them, and nobody will know the
real, keen joy that is to be theirs.'
There is going to be. a big TURNOUT

CONCERTS HAD SAME
EFFECT AS SWEATB0X

That Emusic hath charms to soothe
the savage breast' is the basis Of the
theory advocated by Sheriff W. J. Gary
of Milwaukee yesterday in his address
to the Interstate Sheriffs' association.
The Milwaukee official dwelt at length
upon this subject, and gave proofs Of
the power Of music over hardened Grim
inals. He asserted that on account Of
concerts given in the Milwaukee county
jail during the past year, thirteen priss-
oners had broken down and confessed,
contrary to the advice of their attor-
neys. In this way the county was
saved about $4,000.
Yesterday mornings session was the
last of the sheriffs' convention. Other
speakers we're ex-President John Steiner
of Dubuque, Iowa; J. o. Francis Of Nor
ris, ILL.,, and John G. ,Looper Of Des
Moines, Iowa. In the afternoon the Wis.
itors were guests Of Warden Wolfer at

them left for their homes last night.

GREAT GAIN in
BANK CLEARINGS
THIS YEAR WILL ECLIPSE FINE
RECORD OF 1904.
Every Month but One Has Shown Good
Increase Over Corresponding Month
Of Last Lear, and the Years Total
Promises to Run Well Over Nine
Hundred Millions.

Figures compiled by The Journ /
from. the. records of the Minneapolis
clearing houses indicate that the year
1905 is to be record breaker in bust
ness results in the city. Yesterday the
thirty-second week Of the year closed,
with still another gain in bank clear
ings.
The month Of February showed a
small decline, but otherwise the gains
have been steady, and were especially
large in the months Of April, May and
June. Since Jan. the total has run
to the big figures of $473,302,962.56 an
increase over the corresponding thirty
two weeks of last year Of 1862, 221 ,l67. SO.
Last year the total clearings for Min
neapolis were $843.2SO,773, compared
with $74l, ,342 in 1903, gain that
caused much favorable comment in
financial circles everywhere. This year
there is the promise of a gain that will
surpass that Of 1904, which was equal to
1877 per cent, and will run the total into
figures well beyond anything ever
known here.
The table for the thirty-t two weeks
follows:

tion and progress. But that this does
not apply to all Chinese, even all OFF,
eials is evident from a statement just
made by missionary of the American
Presbyterian board regarding Governor
Chou Flu, who was recently appointed
to the biang Kiang viceroyalty. Chou
Flu had been in Chinanfu, the capital
of the Shang Tung province, since 1902,
and the progress of city and province
had been remarkable. This model gov.
ernor had been friendly with all for
eigners; had exercised fostering
care of the institutions he found when
placed in charge, and had himself
created a model police system, hospi.
tai run according to modern methods,
a mint and other modern institutions.
The people Of the city are very sorry
to lose him, and feel that the heavier
responsibilities of the viceroyalty may
be too great a burden for his 20 years,
for he is not man of robust health.
