When asked where he would draw his

head Of the Salvation Army, is
the grandest old man in the
world. Some sixty years ago, when he
began work in his native city of Not

once was reviled, respected where he
was held in contempt, is received by
kings and presidents with honor and by
the poor with ovations and looks over
a world that he has conquered by his
armies of peace. ..
For many weeks General Booths
followers and friends throughout the
earth have been planning popular dem
onstrations for his eightieth birthday,
April 10, and for the announcement
on that day Of his last and greatest
project, that of University of HUI

salvation work. This institution will

the number.

usage, but he goes after them. That is
the great point
General Booths beau ideal and pa
iron saint is John Wesley There is
much in common between the two
both religious reformers, both break
ing away from old conventional Gus
toms, both preaching in the open air
and using methods denounced as SEN
sational, both appealing to the poor,
the sinful and the suffering; both do
Ing prodigious amount Of work, not
only as preachers, but as writer's and
organizers; both looking personally aft
er the movements they founded even
to minute details, both starting great
new departure in religion, both jeered
at and held in contempt in the begin

Of mankind in the end.
Bombarded by Dead Cats.
The father Of William Booth was a
builder. The family belonged to the
Established church, but at the age of
fifteen the future head Of the Saliva
ton Army happened by Methodist
chapel, was attracted to enter and al
most instantly experienced conversion.
In his ardent way he demanded imme-
diately to be set at work and was sent
out to induce the mill men to come to
church. In the open spaces about the
shops the boy enthusiast appealed to
his grimy hearers in impassioned sen
fences, but to the accompaniment of
boots, dead cats and rotten vegetables.
These he resented not at all, but led
rs many men as would go to the chap
ell and sat with them during service.
It was a prophetic beginning Of a ca
reer that was to be spent among the
poor and to an accompaniment Of mis-
understanding and abuse.

eighteen hours a day and says he ex-
poets to live to be $50.
However long General Booth lives,
it Is safe to say that his gospel of
"soap, soup and salvation will go on
indefinitely and his drumbeat will
still be heard around the world. He
believes in ministering to bodies as
we'll as souls and in making men hap
ply here as well as hereafter. His
creed is that the way to regenerate So
c1ety is to degenerate the individuals
composing society. With political
movements of any kind he has moth
ing to do. His appeal is to the indi-
v1dual unit, and he uses cooperation
only as means to that end.
In person General Booth is tali-over
SIX feet-and spare. He has piercing
eye, nose like the beak of an eagle, a
high, though retreating forehead, white
hair and a whittier beard. He is an
orator Of rare powers, being a master
or appeal, denunciation, invective, fiery
exhortation, homely wisdom and anec-
dote. He is as ready with the pen as
with the spoken word, thing not
common among orators. 10 this unu-
sual combination he adds such powers
as an organizer and leader that Cen
eral Wolseley, once head of the British
army, said that Booth would have
made a great military commander. A
man that can talk, write and command
can move the world, provided he has
sufficient faith, purpose and concentra-
ton. Booth has all these and several
other things-for example, boundless
energy. He works all the time and
demands that others do the same. He
has no room for lazy man.
No Respectable People Wanted.

qualities William Booth possesses a
temper. With all his kindness he is

Archbishop Ireland last week re-
turned to St. Paul from Rome.
Mankato has taken the first steps
toward organizing a commission plan
of government and thus bears the dis
tinction of being the first city to try
the new plan. Duluth may possibly
follow suit.
The village council of Isanti has
granted a liquor license to Carlson &
Olson for the ensuing year for So, 500.
An ordinance was also adpoted pro-
hibiting billiard and pool tables,
chairs, cards, dice, etc., in the saloon,
and provides that the place must be
closed at 10 O'Clock each evening.
Postal receipts for the state of Min
nesota for the first quarter of 1909
amounted to 81, 343, 900, which would
bring the total receipts for the year
to, approximately, S5,500,000. This
places Minnesota ninth in the list of
states with regard to volume of bust
ness done. Minnesota ranks ahead
of all surrounding states and is ex-
ceeded in amount of business done
only by eastern states with large met
ropolitan cities.
Among the paroles granted by the
state board of control at it's April
meeting was one to Alfred A. Buck of
Mankato. He was son of the late
Judge Daniel Buck, of the supreme
court, and was convicted of bank
wrecking. After his Mankato bank
failed he went to Mexico, but was To-
Gated and taken back home, where he
was found guilty of grand larceny in
the first degree and sentenced to six
years and four months. His father
died of a broken heart after the dis
grace of his son. The young man
was received at the prison Nov. l,

Loses Life In Car.

Omaha, Sunday morning w.
S. Kenneth, Of Duluth, Mimi, tray-
cling salesman for the Patten.Whitc
company of that city, was killed in
the passenger elevator at the Rome
hotel. The elevator had been sig
nailed from the fifth floor and was
on its way up, AS it passed the third
floor Kenneth, who was standing in
the hall, attempted to jump in
through the open door. He slipped
and fell across the floor OF the car,
a portion of his body hanging outside.
Before the conductor could stop the
car, it reached the fourth floor. Here
Kenneth's body was crushed between
the car and the floor and dropped
down the shaft into the basement.
When parties reached the body, life
was extinct.
