PROFIT SHARING PLAN
 IN RHODE ISLAND PEN
Convicts to Be Given an Incentive to
 Labor.

Providence. R. l.. March 5.-Rhode Island tomorrow will begin an experi- ment in prison reform under which conVicts in the state penitentiary will receive a share of the proceeds Of their labor. James F. McCusker. the new warden of the Cranston institution, is responsible for the project
 Under the plan, the profit sharing system is to apply to all prisoners en- pioyed in the workshops. kitchen. laun dry. bakery, engineering department and such other departments as the chairman of the state beard may di- rect. All receipts in excess of $2,00O a month are tO be used for this purpose and no part of the money thus paid to prisoners is to be used for the pay ment of fines or costs of court. All oonvicts who have been employed three months or more are entitled to share in this fund.
 our board believes that this plan will be conducive to good discipline and be of great benefit to the men, said Chairman Walter A. Read. Many of the men leave the prison broken in spirit and with only a suit of clothes and g. between them and beggary. The new system Wal give the prisoner d chance to save money for fresh start in the world or to help his family, if he has anyone dependent upon him"

New York. March 5-Franlly stat ing the. disappointment he had expert encod in his ministry to the wealthy Fifth Avenue Baptist church. Rev Charles r.. Aked announced today that he had resigned and received a unan- imous call to the First Congregational church in San Francisco. He said he was unable to find any good req son why ne should not accept. The announcement was made from the pulpit.
 He regretfully acknowledged his fears that the great enterprises which he had hoped to lead as the pastor of one of the wealthiest churches in America, popularly known as John D. Rockefelier's church.. were only such stuff as dreams are made Of."
 Notwithstanding the $10.GO0 salary offered him when he came here from England four years ago and the re- cent increase to S12.001, or the ties of friendship to the metropolis, he did not see how he could contemplate permanent ministry here. He chafed under the failure of the church to provide a larger edifice or tO under take larger enterprises.
 So far as We can see today he said. there is no future for this church or for my ministry"

Walters was. or had been, q postal clerk and came here in i'll health and with slight re- sources. But he had considerable ability and caustic pen. He start ed The Harpoon. largely on faith. depending on the postal clerks of the country to patroniZe it by their sub scriptions, for it's purpose was chiefly to point out evils in the service that, in his opinion, needed correction. He called attention to them in a manner most outspoken and seemed to meet with quite a liberal support. for his paper. which was at first issued here was moved to Denver The first few issues were reviewed by Tae Republican. and it was then predicted that he was treading very closely on the border line that meant a mix up with the authorities if he chanced to step over it.
 Mir. Walters was here again not long ago. and it appears now that he got over the border line a little. or at least the authorities think he did as disclosed in the following dis patch that was sent out of Denver a few days ago:
 Urban Walters, editor of The Har- poon, a Denver publication devoted to the interests of the postal railway mail clerks, was arrested today by United States Marshal Chadwick on

THE LOSS IS 4 MILLION
The Entire Business Dis trict of the City Was Threatened - Though No Lives Were Lost There Were Narrow Escapes.

Minneapolis. Minn, March 5-One oi the most disastrous fires ever known in this city destroyed the Syndicate block on NicoHet ayenue and Firth and Sixth streets. The total loss is estimated at q million Twelve persons were rescued from upper stories while the flames were roaring around them. Some of these sustained slight injuries. but none were seriously hurt.
 The entire fire department of Min neapolis was called out, but it was totally inadequate to check the flames. Later call was sent to St. Paul for help. and this was immedi- ately furnished
 Several Of those rescued had taken desperate chances. One of the res cued persons reported that two wom- en were back in the flames, but it is believed he was mistaken, as all the occupants were accounted for. The principal lessees are business establishments.
 high wind carried the embers from the fire high over the business district and number of small fires we're started on the roofs of several buildings. Some of these emberS fell fourteen squares from the fire. burn ing awnings and other inflammaDle ma "oriaL
 The syndicate building was erected in 1882 by number of local busi- ness men Three years ago it was purchased by the Boston Trust com pany.
 Although the fire broke out early in the morning, it was noon before it was brought under control.
 For several hours it was feared the entire business district would be swept by flames.

Seattle. Wash. March 5-Tuesday's municipal election will be marked by much activity upon the part of the newly enfranchised women voters and promises to make Seattle still further subject to what the enemies of women's rights term 'petticoat government"
 On February last the women made use of their political power to oust Mayor Hiram (. Gill and his appointive officers. On February 22 the women followed up their victory over the Gill forces by active partici- patton in the primary. Of the eigh- teen candidates for councilmcn to be votedSon today. the women were in- strumental in defeating all but three candidates who were accused of be- ing on intimate terms with the late Gill administration. The proportion of women voting in the primary. compared with the total registration, was larger than that of men.
 Most of the nominees for council men to be elected are men of wealth and influence and some of them have devoted much time to the study of government.

EFFECT OF EXTRA SESSION
 AMONG THE CANADIANS
Probably Ratification by Parliament
 Would Have Been Deferred.

Ottawa, March 5.-Presideat Taft's immediate call for an extra session oi congress in April puts new face on the reciprocity situation and may in the opinion of some of the opponents as well as the champions of the proposed agreement, save the cause in Canada from any peril it may have incurred by the failure of the United States sen ate to endorse the plan.
 IL is generally conceded that if an extra session of congress had not been summoned and ratification of the treaty had been left to the session next fall, the Canadian advocates of the plan might have been disheartened and probably parliament woul have fol- lowed the example of congress. leaving ratification to it's chances at the sue ceeding session.

Dear Sir: This seems to be a
time of commotion in Tacoma and
1, as a property owner, feel it
keenly. Tacoma is having a kind
of advertising that is going to
stunt her growth and reduce her
real estate values till those who
have invested their all with hopes
will find themselves bankrupt.
1t is all right to cry shut
down." but when a Commercial
club and city officials allow an or
ganization Or even an individual
to advertise thing broadcast and
invite people all over our own
state and other states to our city,
and then, when these men are
here, they allow some one indi-
vidual, for political reasons, TO
"shut down. what can any of
us expect?
Tacoma officials have allowed
boxing matches right along, and
