NOTED TEACHER WILL
DELIVER TWO LECTURES
Professor George e, Vincent Of Chicago
:. University will Fill Engagement on
Teachers Course - 8 ]. 5,s.,,r -

Those who heard Edward Howard
Griggs in his Lectures earlier. in the:
season, will be glad to know that the
Teachers club is planning to bring to
Minneapolis for two lectures, no less a
person than George Edgar Vincent, pro-
fessor of sociology at the University of
Chicago.
Professor Vincent's two lectures on
the "Mind and the Mob,' and "The
New Philosophy are to be delivered
at the First Baptist church Friday and
Saturday evenings of this week. The
fact that Mr.. Vincent is coming under
the auspices of the Teachers club
would be guaranty enough, if guar
anty were needed, that the lectures
will be. brilliant and entertaining as
well as instructive. Is
The lecturer is a son of Bishop J. H.
Vincent of Chautauqua fame, and has
inherited many of the characteristics Of
his father which have made him deep
= thinker, a fearless and able speaker,
. and given him a winning and attractive
i personality. He has been in great de-
I, mand all over the west and middle sec
$stlons of the country, while in some of
the most cultured places of the east he
has been repeatedly called to lecture.
n Born in 1854 Mr.. Vincent was pre-
pared for college in New Jersey, grad
uated from Yale when but 81 years of
age: Years of editorial, work, travel
in Europe, and the orient, and profess
sional work in the Chautauuua andsthe
University. of Chicago along his chosen
field, sociology, for fourteen years have
eminently qualified him for the sub
4 iects he has chosen. In addition to the
so-called popular lectures,n he has
: prepared group of "studies'' in social
psychology that are intensely interest
ing to the thinker and the student. aud
3 it is one from each group that he will
deliver here A third lecture will be
teachers only, and to which the public
will not be admitted.

LITTLE CHANCE FOR

Heavy Losses in San Francisco Make
a Reduction in Minnesota and the
Northwest Improbable.

Insistent: demands for lower insur-
ance rates in Minnesota and the north
west are likely to be Of no avail, in
the light of the heavy losses Of the
coast. Last year the loss ratio was
low and business was good, and it is
said that the companies were consid-
ering a substantial reduction. All this
is set at naught blythe great San Fran
cisco fire. ,',f' -S..~* -
T. D. o 'Brien, insurance commission
err, says the fire shows a necessity for
a large surplus, or reinsurance reserve.
He thinks the good showing Of last
year will enable the companies to raise
the surplus without increasing rates.
Rates were recently lowered in San
Francisco on account Of the low loss

city with the progressiveness for which
Minneapolis is noted, such a Jail is al
lowed to be used,'' continued the Eng

sanitary. The cement floors are con

up is anything but healthy, and the
ventilation is outrageous. It is enough
to make a man bad to have to breathe

left uncovered to pollute the all"
Cell Arrangements Bad.
The arrangement Of the cells in one
large department is the worst feature
of your county jail. It not only neces.
states the allowing of desperate men to
congregate, and hatch schemes that are
liable to result in jail breaks, but it
throws together the hardened criminals
and the youths who have, perhaps
committed their first offense and are
sorry for it, or may even not have com
| nlitted any offense at all. In these cases
the young men are bound to be influ.
enced to their detriment, and often this
association is the cause of future lives
of sin and crime. The principle is alb
solutely wrong, and the practice as it
exists in the Hennepin county Jail is
vicious and should be done away with
at any cost. 49,. - X: -. ..., =. o..
