BISHOPS REPORT
STIRS N, {. CLERGY
Question of Ban on Certain
Forms of Amusement
Presages Fight.

Minneapolis. Mimi, May 4--Minis-
ters of the Methodist Episcopal church
appeared to be equally divided last
night on the question whether one
church law prohibiting dancing. card
playing. gambling and going to thea
ters, circuses and horse races should be
abolished, as. recommended by the
board of bishops
on the ground that their fnvestiga-
tions showed that two-thirds of the g.
2500OO members of the church either
danced or went to circuses and thea
ters without regarding it as being sim
full. the bishops declared that the
church law against these diversions. in
force for forty years. had become obso
lete.
They asserted that while the church
would continue to protest against these
forms of amusement still 1T was better
not to have any specific law on the
subject than to have a law which was
ineffective John Wesley's injunction
leaving the amusement question to the
conscience of individuals. the twenty
four active bishops declared, was the
wisest regulation for Americans OF
the twentieth century"

WIN THE
VICTORY

The campaign to prevent the closing
of Johnson street came to an end yes
terday with victory for the people.
In the matter of the petition of F. S.
Betz for the closing of the street the
court ordered that the matter be set
tied according to the agreement reach
ed between Bets and the city officials.
This agreement provided that the
lots lying south of Hoffman street and
west of Johnson street may be vacated
and thrown into acreage. johnson
street, however. will remain open so
that at any future time it may be open
ed across to Sohl street.
The fact that the Erie coal storage
warehouse is to be removed and that
| Sohl street will probably be opened to
Conkey avenue makes it all the more
imperative that Johnson street be
saved for the people. for it will be only
only a question of a short time when
it will be necessary to open it through
| to the north side.
