CALLED TO TESTIFY.
Bishop Scanneil Subpoenaed as Wit
ness in Grove Case

Omaho, Feb. l3.-BishOp Scannell has
been subpoenaed as witness in the
Grove case and will be called either
Monday or Tuesday. 1t is common re-
port that Grove has confessed the full
story of the kidnapping to the bishop,
giving in detail not only his own part in
the crime, but giving also the names of
his accomplices and the particular part
that each one played. The county at
torney declines to state what he eX-
poets the bishop to testify, but there is
considerable speculation on the point of
whether or not he shall be able to get
the bishop to divulge the secrets of the
confessional If the state attempts to
question the bishop on this point the de-
Tense will enter strenuous objection to
the admission of the testimony.

Trial of Christ Analysed BY a
New York Lawyer.
Y. M. C. A. COURSE LECTURE
Jewish Sanhedron Had Secretly PREF

Statutes Repeatedly.
From Mondays Daily.

From Mondays Daily.
The attendance at the Y. NJ. c. A
lecture course entertainment last even
ing was the largest accorded any OF
the entertainments on the course up to
the present time. The subject seemed
to be one of unusual interest, and the
audience gave close attention through
out the lecture
Walter NJ. Chandler of New York gave
the lecture, his subject being "'rhe Trial
of Jesus From A Lawyers Standpoint
He was introduced by Secretary A. c.
Gran, of tie Y. NJ. C. A., and proved
and held the closest attention of his
hearers for nearly two hours.
The first part of the lecture was de-
voted to the Jews as race at the pres
ent time, and the speaker gave them a
high place. He characterized the popu-
lar idea of the Jews as false and vul-
gar, and made the statement that as a
race they are failure as money max
ers. The impression that they are mon
ey makers got out because of 81 gns and
symbols, and because of the Rothchilds
and other financial firms that help tC
control the movements of the world
powers. The Jews are the most intelli-
gent and spiritual race that ever lived
and have given to the world more priests
and prophets than all the rest of man
kind. In any age, there have been more
intelligent Jews than of any other two
races. They have furnished leaders il
education, letters, music, war; on the
stage, on the rostrom, and the acutest
statesmen. With this prelude, the speak
er proceeded to give the Jews fits as
he said, for their mistreatment OF
Christ
Christ was really given three trials in
one, first the ecclesiastical trial by the
Sanhedron, then the trial by Herod
and that by Plate The Sanhedron at
that time was degenerate and corrupt
Some of the members had committed
crimes, and others had purchased THEN
offices. They were prejudiced against
Jesus, and not the kind of men to give
him fair trial. He had denounced
them for three years, and they hated

Minneapolis gets the worst of it on
short distances, but on the longer hauls

lower on Others than the rates out OF
Minneapolis for the same distance. On
some distances they tally exactly. From

to Winthrop, $50 miles, it is also 30

Mankato correspond in the main with
rates from the twin cities. From Man.

From Mankato to Worthington, 93 miles,

any OF Its employees, is beyond the
constitutional power Of Congress. and
