The City Planning and Civic Better
ment commission will collect and pre-
sent to the voters of the city all valu-
able information relating to the pro-
posed subways under the Northern
Pacific railroad tracks at Tenth and
Eighth streets, and the proposed per-

This data will be presented to the
public before the special election when

the commission, NJ. w, Murphy, was
authorized to call a mass meeting be-
fore the time Of the election.
The meeting Of the commission was
held yesterday afternoon at the city
hall, being the first session that has
taken place since spring. The sub
ways were the principal matters of
discussion at the meeting and it is
the intention to give the people every
opportunity to gain all facts that may
assist them in arriving at decision

ed by Daughter.

Evidence laid before M. A. Hildreth,
United States district attorney, by
Miss Anka Krogh. Valley City nor

resulted in the arrest of the girls
father, Julius Krogh. by Stark county

age. are cited by the state.
The arrest recently of Miss Krogh's
former school teacher. one Schafer, of
Snow, n. D., on complaint of the
girls father, charging violation of the
Mann act, brought the case to the
attention of Attorney Hildreth. In
questioning Miss Krogh, he obtained
information that he placed with Stark
officials, resulting in the arrest of the
father. There appears no foundation
for the charge against Schafer, and
Miss Krogh and Schafer both so de-
clared to- Attorney Hildreth.
At the hearing in Dickinson, Krogh
was bound over to the Stark county
district court.

merely to make the facts more
generally understood.
In the discussion the fact was
brought out that the Northern Pacific
Railway Co. does not ask a modifica-
ton of the present ordinance as to
blockading traffic except as to inter-
state passenger and mail trains. II
the railway company is permitted to
blockade Eighth street for period of
eighteen minutes, IL necessary, this
will affect the public primarily as to
Northern Pacific trains No. and 4, and
the other four interstate passenger and
mail trains passing through Fargo at
night or in the early morning.
1t was brought out at the meeting
that this eighteen minute privilege
would not be exercised except as to
the time necessary for these interstate
trains. These trains are so long that
either Eighth street or Broadway must
be blocked to enable the trains to stop
at the station, or the present location
OF the passenger depot removed to a
more inaccessible location.

The services were nearly all in the

spring to the large congregation. The
interest and the gifts for missionary
work were very encouraging.

delivered the annual sermon in English
on Sunday to a large and very atten-

text, Separate Me Barnabas and Saul

DUBUQUE COLLEGE.

Mr.. George Benson Hewitson of
Regina, Canada, addressed the faculty
and students in the auditorium on
Feb. II, on "Why l Became a Cath
Ollie" Introducing his subject, the
speaker asked indulgence of his
hearers for his frequent use of the
pronoun 81" His theme was such
that allusion to self was unavoidable;
and, moreover, the greatest problems
of life involve the question of self.
What am /? What are nv relations
to others? What are my relations
with God? The general meaning of
is bodily presence. Yet the body
changes constantly. There is in man,
however, that which never changes
his relations with God, his identity,
his imperishable part, the soul. He
became Catholic chiefly because he
believes in a personal God, and be-
cause the Catholic Church is the cham
pion of this great truth. The non
Catholic world is surfeited with
theories which destroy the very ex-
istence of such a being. Plus X,
although called the peasant Pope,
demolished these wicked theories in
his condemnation of Modernism: and
he demolished them by restating for
the world in the clearest manner the
simple, plain, eternal truths. If
there be no God, life is meaningless,
this universe is meaningless. But we
know that the universe is full of mean
&ng. We can discover and classify
the facts and proofs of the universe.
This is what science does. If we
could not do this, our presence in this
college would be purposeless. No law
is investigated without mind, and
there can be no mind without a per-
son. Back of all the laws of our
universe there is person, and that
Person is our Personal God. The
universe bears his Impress Just as
