ARCHBISHOP IRELAND
WILL BE A WITNESS

Archbishop John Ireland will be a wit
ness at the hearing in the district court
next Wednesday on the writ of quo war
ranto brought in an effort TO dissilve the
corporation known as the Christian nU1on
and under the name Of which the Sc

The noted /prelate will Testify merely
to his acquaintance with P. A. Seguin,
the head Of the Minneapolis institution.
Mr.. Seguin came from Canada to ST.
Paul several years ago. He was then an
ordained priest in the Catholic church,
but was unattached. He thus came I'M
der the supervision of the archbishop,
who shortly afterward placed him at st.
Cloud. His work there was not wholly
satisfactory and his actions are said to
have contributed to his leaving the
church. It is in relation to this part OF
the respondents life that Archbishop Ire

Mr.. Seguin has been away from home
temporarily and has therefore not beer
served with the writ, but service will be
made sometime today. Mrs. Seguin thi:

mr.. WALKER WILL PAY
OFFERS $4,000 FOR ART GALLERY
AT MISREPRESENTATION FOR
SEVEN CORNERS.

At the annual meeting OF the Minneapo-
lis public, library board late yesterday an
appropriation was made, not to exceed
$1,000, for establishing a library sta
tion at the Seven Corners. The appro-
priation was made upon a recommends
ton of the librarian.
President T. B. Walker accepted the
unanimous vote Of the board to succeed
himself in office for another year. This
will be Mr.. Walkers seventeenth year
on the board of directors.
Mr.. Walker offered to advance $4,000
which is to be used in fitting up the
third story Of the library building for
an art gallery and museum for the Min
neapolis academy of sciences. At first
it had been planned to have the art So
ciety bear some of the expense in fit
ting up the floor, but the funds of the
society at the present time do not allow
of the expense.
Mr.. Walker expressed his earnest
hope that in time to come the Minneapo'
lis public library will have the finest
and best organized system in the coun,
try. He cautioned the members Of the
board to be in favor of expansion Of
the library work apace with the growth
Of the city.
Miss L. M. Crafts was reelected sec
rotary. The south station Of the library
will be kept open Sundays from Gam
to 10 pm, and if the experiment. proves
satisfactory it will be made q rule.

day by a delegation of homeopathic

aminers. In the party were DR.. P.

The law gives the homeopathic three
Of the nine members of the board. Not

governor appointed three allopaths yes

Governor johnson expressed his re-

sent out, and it was too late to make
a change. If his attention had been
called in time he would not have made
the mistake
It is not likely that anything further
will be done, as the law is not believed
to be valid. The supreme court decid.
ed some years ago that the legislature
had no right to restrict the governor in
his exercise Of the appointing power.

TO run EXPRESS
BETWEEN CITIES
FAST THRU 1NTERURBAN TO BE
PUT ON.
Lake Street, Merriam Park Interurban
Line Will Be Traversed Next Sum
mel by Cars Which Will Fly Between
Cities-older Interurban Lines Can
Care for Local Traffic.

Fast express cars between Minneapo-
lis and st. Paul will be run over the
Lake treet-M Merriam Park interurban
line next summer by the street railway
company.
For years there has been a demand
for an express service between the two
cities. The experiment was tried once
on the Como-Harriet line, but was aban-
doned on account Of the objection to
having thru cars go flying by. when it
meant a long wait before a local car
could be secured.
With the Lake street interurban line
in operation and with the great addi-
tional power that will be available be-
cause of the new substation to be
erected at Chicago avenue and Lake
street, it will be possible to establish
the express service. Purely local traffic
in both cities will be cared for by
other lines and by the older interur-
bans. In Minneapolis the Lake street
line will care for the business between
Lake Harriet and the river, as at pres
ent. In ST.. Paul the Merriam Park
line, which leaves Marshall avenue at
Prior, will do the same. The local SER
urbans that will stop at all points. This
will afford excellent and adequate SER
vice for the local needs and will re.
move the objection to the express ser
vice.
The st. Paul end Of the line will run
direct into the business center Of the
city, as does the Merriam Park line at
present. The distribution in Mime
apolis will be made by transfer to the
intersecting lines along Lake street
Naturally the East Side daily interur
ban business uses the Como line, which
saves the slow trip into and thru the
downtown districts and the delay Incl
dent to transferring. The heavy bust
quickly handled with the Lake street
express.
All North Side business will be vel
cared for with the same express service
and the Lake street transfer. Ever
northside line has a Lake street inter
section and passengers coming from st
Paul on the express, after making a fly
ing "trip thru st. Paul and into the city
can transfer to their home lines as the.
are reached at Cedar. Bloomington
Fourth, Nicollet avenues. The Sout'
and West Minneapolis interurban trav
ell, which is heavy, will be accommc
dated much better than at present an
much congestion in the center Of tn
city will be avoided.
