There was an unusual attendance at
the Minister'S club this morning. Rev
f. J.. Heermance addressed the asso-
citation on "Church Work in the Coun-
try" a subject on which he is an au-
thority. Union services were planned
for Sunday evenings during July and
August.
1t was unanimously, voted as the
sense of the club, 'that the Chautauqua
should not be permitted to charge, ad
mission to Sunday services" The
minister's are in hearty sympathy with
the Chautauqua and would not do
anything to iniure it, but they cannot
see how the city authorities can dis
eliminate in favor of the Chautauqua
as against other institutions that might
wish to conduct business for pay on
Sunday On the other hand, there is
a very evident distinction between in
stitutions supported by offerings and
and sacrificing labor
for the benefit of the community and
those who wish to take advantage of
the day of rest to crafty greed. If
one Organization is permitted to make
money on Sunday it us not a square
deal to others to hinder them. That is
the view taken by Mankato clergy.

The death of Stephen Thorne left a
vacancy in the position of clerk of
the district court, and the law pro-
vides that in cases of this kind the
district Judge shall fill the vacancy
until the next succeeding general eec-
ton, which in this instance will not
occur until year from next fall.
Judge Pfau filled the vacancy this
morning by appointing George G. Krost
to the position and Mr.. Krost will
assume his duties at once.
Was Near to Election.
Mr.. Krost was the democratic candi
date against Mr.. Thorne at last falls
election, and came. near defeating him.
He talked some of contesting the of
flee, but Judge Pfau suggested to him
that it was possible that vacancy
might occur later and that if no con
test was made he might name him for
the position. Feeling that this was in
the nature of a promise, Judge Pfau
fulfilled it by naming Mr.. Krost There
were several other applicants for the
appointment, mostly democrats.
Mr., Krost is an old resident of Man
kato, and well known, and was this
spring elected city recorder over A. H.
Scherer. the republican candidate. He
has filled this office little over a
month.

MIR. krost this morning rendered his
resignation as city recorder. and Mayor
Meyer called a special meeting of the
city council fer nine O'Clock to fiji
the vacancy. The council unanimously
elected Mr.. Scherer to fill out the I'M
, expired term, OH motion OF Aid Eich

Mr.. Scherer was elected by the last
council to fill the vacancy when Mr.
Hodapp resigned the middle of Feb
ruary, and filled the office until after

was the logical candidate to fill the
