journal Special Service.


St. Cloud Mimi, Dec. >1S.-The great revival
campaign which has been in progress here for the
past four weeks came to close Sunday after
noon with meeting which filled every availa-
BILE seat in the Davidson theater The revival,
which was conducted by Rev. Robert q. Johnson
Of Chicago, one of the Chapman workers who
participated in the twin city REVEALS, was a
most successful one. AL the evangelical church
es in the city participated and more than 600
professions Of faith were made. -
During the campaign ffty-seven meetings were
held and it is estimated there was total at
tendance of upwards Of 10000. While the re-
vival was at It's height, attention was attracted
to the wide-open saloon policy by the arrest of
young girl who testified that she had received
liquor at a saloon. This led the mayor to revoke
the license of the saloon.
At the next revival meeting strong resolutions
were adopted calling upon the mayor to close
the saloons at II o'clock every night and on
Sunday. When the resolutions were presented Ia
the mayor he promptly issued the order making
1t effective Jan. 1, and directed the police ia
strictly enforce the law. Now the saloon men
are circulating petition asking the mayor to
reconsider his action. 49,. f. -:

CLEVELAND BUILDING
Five Million Dollar Union Depot One
 of the Schemes,

Cleveland, O., Aug 3.-The Leader this morning says: ''The definite an nouncement is made that Cleveland IS to have a S5,OO0,OOO union depot, S3,- GOO 900 of which will be the share Of the New York Central lines as part of the appropriation of $6O,OOO,OOO for improvements to be made within the next three or four years. The tracks through the city will be elevated. Other New York Central improve ments, work on which has already been started. include the opening of the Clearfield coal district by the building of a new railway into it and the double tracking of the Big Four ra1froad.
 The development of the Clearfeld district entails the building of a line between the Oil City line of the Lake Shore and the soft coal road of the New York Central. The cost of this improvement is figured at $5,OOO,OOo for which the money has been appro. priated.
 Another item of expense is an order for the construction of 125 steel bridges on the West Shore which are being put into carry the electric equip. ment of the road. The plans also in. clude the equipping of part of the Lake Shore railway with electricity probably between here and Buffalo.

INTERNATIONAL RACING
Unitsd States and Germany Are
 nakine Plans.

New York, Aug 3.-Negotiations are pending, it is announced, for interna- tional yacht races between the United States land Germany. They have been informally undertaken by a coterie of American yachtsmen, principally east ern racing men, and are being carried on with members of the Imperial Yacht club at Kiel The German emperor is understood to have manifested keen interest in the proposal and while he has not as yet indicated his entire ap. proval of the plan, is disposed to favor 1t. If satisfactory conditions can be formulated it is practically certain that the races will be arranged. The idea is not for the contests of ninety footers, but to widen the interest by giving more opportunity to racing men to actively participate in the sport and to make the contests for boats that are of healthy type and not mere racing machines. The racing length of the contestants is now matter of nego- tiatlon. The Americans favor the thirty three raters which are so popu- lar among German clubs. and the idea has generally been met with approval. The plan is to have three boats sail for each country and the race to be determined by the general excellence of the three. If this idea meets with the enthusiasm expected it is proposed not 10 arrange for one race. but to make the contest either an annual or a biennial event. to be alternately held on this and the other side of the water

GOOD FEELING
Will Be the Outcome of the visit of the British Fleet
 to the Baltic

London, Aug 3.-The forthcoming visit of British fleet to the Baltic sea appears more than likely to mark the beginning of more cordial rela- tions between Germany and Great Britain instead as has been suggested in some quarters adding to the fric- tiOn now existing. The proposed visit was known to the German foreign of- flee months ago and suggestions that objections were raised to it by Ger many are unfOunded. Ernest George Prettyman, secretary to the admiralty, to-day in reply to questions stated definitely that no protests regarding the visit of the fleet had been re ceived. Friendly comment on the pending cruise from German Baltic ports creates the belief that it will help along King Edwards desire for good relations between Germany and Great Britain and the announcement of Emperor Williams support of the candidacy of Prince Charles of Den mark for the Norwegian throne is ac- cepted as an indication that the Ger man ruler proposes to work in the same direction.
 The report is revived that Emperor William will meet King Edward dur ing the latter's forthcoming trip to Marienbad

TO SURVEY OCEAN
Magnetic Forces of Pacific to Bs
 Illustrated.

San Francisco, Aug. 3.-A magnet ic survey of the North Pacific ocean will be inaugurated within the next few days by the Department of h. ternatiOnal Research in terrestrial magnetism of the Carnegie institu- tion at Washington.
 A wooden sailing vessel, the brig Galilee, has been finally adapted for the purposes of the expedition at this port and it is expected that she will sail the latter part of the week on her first seasons work.
 The object of the expedition is to to secure precise data of the distribu- tion of the magnetic forces over the Pacific ocean. Except for data from occasional expeditions and such as were acquired in wooden vessels q long time ago, the present magnetic charts used by the navigator over this region depend largely upon the ob- seryatiOns on islands along the coasts.
 The director of the work is Dr l.. A. Bauer, who likewise is in charge of the magnetic work of the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey.

THE DELANEY LICENSE
County Commissioners Heard Thoso
 Interested in the Application.

Patrick J. Delaney's application for a liquor license at 156-15S East Farm street was given a hearing before County Commissioners Walter, Thompson and Geddes in the district court room this morning. There were three to one in favor of the applica- tion. The remonstrants based their claim on the grounds that the plac6 was unsuitable for saloon because 1t was purely residential
 A number of residents and property owners testified that in their opinion the place was suitable enough and it would be great convenience to many to have saloon at the place men tioned. There never has been saloon there. or even in that immediate neighborhood, they said, but there was room for one there now.
 Many of the remOnStrants were not present. and one of them, John Keller, caused consternation.
 He was asked if the place was q proper one for saloon and to the surprise of everybody he said it was.
 MT Pierce said he thought the witt ness did not understand him and asked him straight if he favored saloon at the address mentioned
 Witness said he did, because fro would rather see his neighbors spend their money in the neighborhood than spending it downtown.
 The commissioners reserved decis. ion and said they would look over the neighborhood before deciding the mat. ter

 She fell out of the back window of fiat into deep, narrow area crossed by family clothes lines. The womun living in the ground floor fiat heard q thud on the pavement and saw the cor ners of a large parlor rug folding down. over Mrs Getin, who lay in its center. Swaying of the clothes lines above showed that Mrs Getin had taken q clean drop from the fifth to the third floor without striking any obstruction until she hit rug which lay spread over two clothes lines. From that point downward the edges and corners of the rug had fiopped against clothes lines sufficiently to retard the plunge of the woman in the middle of the big carpet.

WATCHnAN BLOWN UP
 AT ROCKVILLE TO-DAY.
He Was Sent Spinning Through an Open Door Way and Landed in Pile of Soft Coal-The Mud Drum of . Boiler in the Sprineville Woolen Hill Cave Way. Which Was the Cause of the Trouble.

Rockville, Conn. Aug. 3-The burst ing of the mud drum in boiler at the SpringviIle woolen mill on West Main street this morning caused prop erty damage in excess of $10,OO0 and seriously injured Harry Morrill,, q night watchman. Morrill, was the only person in that part of the mill when the explosion occurred at 5:45. He had done his work about the boil CT preparatory to getting up steam at 6:3O, and was bending over to put on his shoes. The explosion carried him through the open doorway and he landed on pile of soft coal outside. Although he was scalded from head to foot, Morrill, was able to walk to his home half mile away with a little assistance. A physician who examined him there said it was im- possible to say at once how serious the burns might prove. By his advice Morrill, was sent to the Hartford hos pital.
 As the building is a fire proof struc- ture and the explosion did not blow down the walls, there was very little for the firemen to do when they ar rived in response to an alarm which was turned in. Another mill watch man who was in different part of the building when the explosion took place, drew the fires from under the other boilers to prevent possible fur ther trouble.
 The exploded boiler was of the tu- bular kind, and was inspected two months ago and passed as all right. Operations at the mill will be sus- pended for several days on account of the accident.
