league form when he struck out the first
three men.
The Marroons won the game in the
first inning for after GrOdnick flew out
four consecutive singles which Melted

PUT BAN ON LODGES
Norwegian Lutheran Min
listers Take a Stand.

Redwing, Aug. 1.-THE opening eXer-
cises of the Norwegian Lutheran pas
toral conference today were conducted
| by Rev. j. T. Aastad, who delivered a
short sermon. The following new mem
bers were admitted: Rev. j. A. Molstad
of Chicago, Rev. E. A. Waller of Grove
| City, Mimi, and Rev. E. Hanson of
| Warren, MINI. The committee appointed
| yesterday to report concerning young
| peoples societies recommended that such
societies be organized and that the exec
utive committee of the Young Peoples
association of the synod be requested to
publish sample programs for meetings of
such societies in the official papers in
the synod.
| Rev. A. j. Lee of Lake Mills, Iowa,
read paper on the question of admit
| ting members of secret orders to church
membership. Many congregations of the
synod refused to admit members of
lodges, and the only minister of the
synod who has ever been a member of a
lodge was expelled forty years ago, when
he refused to withdraw from the lodge
after having been thoroughly admonish-
! ed.
The synod claims that most lodges
have "a religion demanding belief in
supreme being, have religious exercises
with prayers from which the name of
the Savior is excluded and Scriptural
selected chosen because of their general
terms which may be used by all heath
ems as well as Christians; that the re-
ligious features of many lodges profess
salvation for all who lead decent life,
whether they believe in the true God
and only Savior or i'll false gods; that
experience has shown lodge members as
Il rule to lose interest in the church.
That the burial services of many lodges
pronounce all saved over whom that SER
vice is read, whatever their belief or
conduct; that some services deuy Christ
by excluding the name of the Savior, not
only from the prayers used, but even
from Scriptural selections in which it is
| found.
The ministers of the synod do not
take part in lodge funerals, claiming
that it is recognition of the religion of
the lodge, which it stamps as unchris-
tian, without, however, pronouncing any
judgment on the spiritual condition of
individual members of lodges.
Among those who participated i'll the
animated discussion following were:
Rev. A. X. Saagen, La Crosse; G. Z.
Everson, Brooklyn; o. M. Holden, AS
toria, Or; D. Kvaase, Menomonie, Wis,
and A. j. Lee of Lake Mills, Iowa. They
believed in patient persuasion of lodge
members with view to winning them
for the church.
| The following special orders were ar
ranged: Saturday forenoon, home mis-
sions, Monday forenoon, English ritual
and forms of worship, the latter to be
discussed by A. Bredesen of Stoughton,
Wis; Tuesday forenoon, appointments
to preach at conferences and synod, to
be discussed by Rev. X. Bjorgo of Red
wing.

Believed to Be G.. HI. God
dard of Hurley, s. ID.
TALE READS LIKE FICTION.
Requests Her to Take the Cash and
Ask No Questions; She Accepts
the Proposition.

Pierce, S. D., Aug. 2O.-Light was
thrown upon the mystery of Professor
Frye of Chicago, who has just returned
to that city after an absence of thirty
one years, giving his amazed wife $4,000
with the provision that she was to ask
no questions regarding his rambblings.
In 1878 there appeared in Hurley, S.
d., Il man who gave his name as G. H..
Goddard. He began the practice of law
and was fairly successful. He also in
vested heavily in real estate, which was
then very cheap and is now valuable.
He never mentioned his past life, but
settlers agreed that Goddard was not his
real name. He possessed considerable
ability and fine education.
Goddard was candidate for various
offices, but shifted his political beliefs
so often that he was not successful in
that line When he came here he posed
as an Episcopalian, but later became
very active in the Catholic church and
finally was appointed professor in the
Catholic college at the national capital,
where he remained year and was then
sent to the Philippines, where he re-
manned two years as the head of the
Catholic schools there.
About year ago he returned from
the Philippines and rejoined his family
here Two of his daughters still re-
side near Hurley. Shortly after return
ing he quarreled with his wife, who left
him and is supposed to be in Colorado.
Goddard continued his practice at Hur
ley until few weeks ago, when he con-
verified all his property into cash, selling
every vestige of the old home, down tc
the family albums and keepsakes, and
even his law diploma, granted him by
the old Dakota court, and everything
went on cash basis, he refusing to
take any securities in any form.
The money as collected was deposited
in the banks of the town, and when he
had disposed of absolutely everything
he drew the cash out, refusing drafts
of any description, demanding ready
money. A large amount of it was paid
to him in 500 bills, and on receiving
the cash he left Hurley as he had come
to it nearly thirty years ago, without
and without goodbye to his old neigh
bors
1t was only few days after God
dard left Hurley with his ready cash
when Frye returned to his wife in Chi
cago with cash donation of $1,000 in
500 bills and desired that no questions
be asked.
Residents of Hurley have secured a
description of Frye, and they are all abb
solutely certain that Frye was Goddard,
while in Dakota, and has become Frye
again on joining his wife whom he de-
serted thirty years ago to join another
woman.
Outside his trip to the Philippines
and his work in Washington, Goddard
did no wandering further than was nee
essary i'm his business as an attorney,
but attended his work in a growing
country, which rapidly added to the
value of the property he secured when
he went into the country at the time
of its settlement, and accumulated a
competency in that manner.
