Abbott of Minneapolis. Sectarian Entertainments Make the Property Taxable If Rental Fees Are Charged. Apropos County Surveyor E . T. Abbott of Henne pin county to bring proceedings against Plymouth Congregational church to place its property on the tax rolls: because the church building is frequently rented- for public entertainments at which admission fees are charged, it may be'interesting to note that a similar question was recently up in Washington/The First Congrega tional church and the Church of Our Sa vior,'Universalist, in Washington, are,ad mirably loqated and in popular demand for public entertainments. It was'the be lief of certain Washirigtonlans that these churches came within the tax law because they ,charged a rental fee for their build ings when so used for public purposes furthermore, the point was made that ad mission fees were charged. \ The legal officer of the District of lumbia, when appealed to, said that the' property,in question was certainly liable' to taxation, the theory of.the exemption being that churches, are used wholly for. free religious worship. The churches came to the front, after the delivery of this opinion, and said that they had ne.ver charged a rental fee for the use of their houses of worship. It was true that the Grand Army of the Republic held its an - nual encampment in the First Congrega tional church, . and the national society of the Woman's Relief Corps, but noand rental fee was charged them. This ex - planation has for the time being quieted the public mind, but it -is evidently the intention of Washington to place these two properties on the tax rolls if they con tinue the indiscriminate use of their build ings for paid entertainments not connected with the work of the churches as such. The complaint in Washington originated with the owners of public halls, who said that their property paid full taxes, and yet was brought' into unsuccessful compe tition -with exempt church property. lilt 'ROUND THE WORL D Four Minneapolis Ladies Embark at 1,000of Broeck.

A good part of the .time they will spend in India, where they wrill attend the Durban, on Dec. 29, when all the native Hindoos will swear allegiance to King Edward VII. This occasion, it is expected, will be the greatest spectacular event that has happened in the far east since the taking of the oath of allegiance to Queen "Victoria in India, which, at that time, was the most extravagant pageant that part of the world had ever known. During their trip the ladies will visit China, Japan, Philippine islands, Slam, Burmah, Sngapore and many other places interest and return home,from England.

A. Russell Says Men Who Spent in India. Urge Women to Vote Should Provide Better Places. A protest against the polling places as found yesterday, as unfit for women to vote in, has been made by Mrs. E. A. Russell. She tells her experience as fol lows: "During this campaign women have been urged to vote for the members of school board in order to show their appre of the rights already given them. They have been'informed that it was tiiSfr. right as well as sacred duty to vote On the question of the issuance of school bonds. It was admitted that women as a class were the most interested portion of the community in having a sufficient num ber of well built and sanitary sqhopl build ings to meet the demands of this growing city. No w after all this encouragement (and it does seem that men are truly anx ious to have us vote, at least when such action will help out their plans) when we go to the polls, what kind of a place do we find provided in which to deposit our sacred ballots? Yesterday morning a woman who owns thousands of dollars' worth of city property, and pays many hundreds ofj dollars in taxes, and myself, went to the .appointed place to vote. W e both believe it is the duty of every Chris tian ' citizen-,1 that pertains to. the government of city, county, state and. nation, as far as- per- mitted by the law, .and that the more we ,siio$ our principles by using the oppor/- lifcjMtfty, meit'ihave.? given us, the sooner-we, siiaU'be givi$n equal privileges.

Such a- place violates every womanly instinct of propriety and neat ness and further I believe that many if not most women would be kept from doing their'- public!duty by such conditions. I venture to assert that whenever women are given the right of franchise, that they will first of**!all cleanse the 'Augean sta-^ bles',of.the^e polling places. .--- .,''Evei J,'tinje women pay their taxes they' shouid 3rots against the injustice of paying taxes without the right of expres sion as to how and by whom the 'sinews' of government should be expended when according tpthe constitution of the United States it is clearly stated that 'taxation without representation is " tyranny,' we should protest against this injustice and protest again and again, until justice is accorded us."

Alongside these vertible ele ments of transportation stands upon its head to-day No. 152, a dumpy green car, whose outlines, still surviving yesterdayrs descent of the suburban Huns, show glist ening evidences that the, venerable little car had painted shamelessly in Its old age. For No. 162, although subsequently al tered to admit of electric propulsion, was once upon a time a half torpid, half spas modic horse car, that traversed Washing ton avenue at the mean rate of six miles .almost every hpvr.

Within the car the passengers occupied hard wooden side seats, destitute of car pet or other covering. If the'streets were" muddy, the aisle, having no lattice work "carpet," was muddy also, and slippery. No conductor accompanied the ancient "bob tails." The passengers poked their nickel through a slot in the door into a receptacle* over which the driver kept watch, or else they" inserted the money into a glass and brass box-at one side of the door, and took care* that the dropping coin rang a bell before descending to join the heap of nickels at the bottom. Not until No. 162 was several years of age did it acquire this very modern fare bank, and a brass tube was placed all along the car sides above the seajs, so that passengers could deposit their fares without coming forward, No. 152 was held to be a triumph of urban convenience.
