2 JOE WANTED BEER, And Because He Couldn't Get It He Went Out and Hung r-vv:-- Himself. . ........ VERY COOL DETERMINATION And Careful Preparation Cha r aeterized the Self-Murder ; of Joseph Janisch. IN A HALF-DRUNKEN MOOD When He Fastened the Fatal Noosel Around His Neck. Joseph Janisch, a laborer, thirty six years old, hung himself yester day at noon because he couldn't get money to buy beer. Janisch resided with his family at 279 East Curtice street, on the upper plateau, in West St. Paul. The household consisted of himself, his wife and four children. There is no. pretension of style about the frame building in which they lived. It stands back from the street in a sand lot, unpainted and weather- beaten. When a GLOBE reporter entered the house yesterday after- noon he found it contains but two rooms. Everything was clean and orderly, however, showing that the mother, a sad-faced German woman, is a good housewife. From Mrs. Janisch and her two boys the story was learned. It was pitiable in its simplicity as the youngsters told ft. Janisch had worked nil of last week for ex-Aid. James Melady. He had come home drunk Saturday night, after all his money was spent. From remarks dropped, this was a regular custom of his, and the wife has been com- pelled to go out washing to provide bread and raiment, for herself and the children. She also kept a cow, and sold milk to add a few pennies to her income. When Janisch > rose yesterday morning he proceeded to drink what he could get, but' this was riot enough to make him very drunk. He tried to make his. wife give him money to buy beer, but she refused, and went to church. The boys said that' their father sat down on the bed in the front room for a few minutes; then went into a closet and remained in a moody ! HALF-DRUNKEN REVERIE a while. After that, abobt 11:30, he went up stairs to a room with a low ceiling, but no attention was paid to i this, as it was supposed he would lie i down and sleep. Three-quarters of an hour afterward, when dinner was ready, the youngest boy went up stairs to call his father. He .found him Ranging to the ridge scantling, dead. Janisch' had fastened. a rope to the toantling, then placed, a noose about Tiis neck.

A dispatch from .Chicago. last night A dispatch from Chicago last night announced the sudden' death there of a ' man who is evidently Maurice S. Mur phy, of this city. He was out of his mind and died in a cell in the police station. Murphy was yard clerk in the employ of the Wisconsin Central road here for the past four :or five years. He was about sixty-five years of age, a-nd the father of thirteen chil dren. His family lives at 204. Granite street, but he lived with a married daughter on Avon street. About a week ago he started for Chicago, say- ing that he was going to Boston to visit some friends for a time. That is the last that had been heard of him until the following dispatch came to the GLOBE last night: CHICAGO, April 21.— A man who gave the name of John B." Murray died in a cell at the Desplalnes street station this afternoon. From papers found in his possession, his right named is supposed to be M. S. Murphy, of St. Paul, Minn. He came to the station early in the morning in a demented condition. He claimed the Canadians were arrayed against him and that he was obliged to fight them He said he came to the station to seek protection. He was taken down stairs and the city physician was noti- \ fied of his condition, but Murray waa l dead before the physician arrived. . Thomas Murphy, son- of the de ceased, was - seen, at his home last night, arid was much grieved and shocked to receive the news of his father's sudden death, the GLOBE re porter bringing him the first news of the sad affair. -"Two weeks ago my father fell from a box car in the yards and landed on his ; head and ; shoulder. fall . af fected him, -: and Mrs. Newman, his daughter, noticed a change la his -man ner at once.

Mr. Murphy was a well known pio neer, having worked on the railroads here for the past thirty years. He was an honest hard-working citizen, and was respected- by all who knew him. HERE AND THERE.

April 2L-A prom inent railway man here, speaking of the reported arrangement between the Canadian Pacific, New York Central and Duluth, South Shore & Atlantic, which was mentioned in a Duluth dis patch of Saturday, says the deal, ho doubt, involves the construction of the Duluth & Winnipeg^ road to St. Vincent, thence along the international boundary a short distance, to con nect with the Deloraine branch of the Canadian Pacific railroad which inter sects the Soo road at Estevan. This would enable the Canadian Pacific and N. Y. Central to control a great part* of the immigrant-carrying business from New York to the Northwestern states, and also to the Pacific coast. By this deal the New.

PULPIf ELOQUENCE. Interesting- Sermon by Rev. Samuel G. Smith, of the People's Church, TO A LARGE CONGREGATION On the Topic, "The Squan dered Patrimony of Chris- . tianity. THIS GENERATION HE SAYS Is Wasting" Much of Its Inher itance—How It Will Leave il- '■"' the World. . Rev. Samuel G. Smith delivered, his accustomed eloquence, the follow sermon at the People's church yester day morning: "The Squandered Patri mony of Christianity." The text was Kings, xL, 11, 12 and 13. Said he: ': When David died, Solomon ■ found an ample throne: awaiting .him. Neigh boring tribes had been conquered, and there was peace abroad. The internal economy of the kingdom had been set tled, and domestic order was assured. Wealth had been amassed. Not only was r there an abundance of treasure, but vast stores of building material had been gathered for temple and palace. And . David, the man of war and the man of affairs, conspicuous in his vices, but also great in his vir tues, went down to his grave as full of honors as he was of years. Solo mon began well. There were visions and prayers and promises. The tem ple completed, the nation's religious unity seemed assured by the services of a great national cathedral. Com merce flourished, and the provincial tribes of Israel were consolidated into a cosmopolitan nation. The Tyrian sailors carried the Hebrew traders on seas both east and west, and mer chandise rare and curious was found J in the bazars of Jerusalem. Horses were brought from Egypt, and, among other things, ivory, apes and pea cocks were brought from Tarshish. . The monarch of the people who had j had been • runaway slaves from Egypt* four hundred years before demanded and '///pip ■:/7:y/;/2i/y7 SECURED THE HAND of the proud daughter of Pharaoh in marriage. Kings delighted to do hon or to the son of David, and queens made pilgrimage . to his palace of wis dom as to the j holy shrine. But the glory of Solomon was the ruin of the nation. With his alliances with strange nations he also brought in the worship of strange gods, and Incense to Ashtoreth and Moloch filled the very aisles of the temple of Jehovah. With the .strange merchandise from foreign ports came also strange and corrupting vices. With the magnif icence and glory of the absolute mon arch were mingled the groans and tears of an oppressed people, whose slavery was made more bitter because their purple-clad masters .were men of their own blood. Solomon began with his dying father's blessing; he de parted leaving to his son a ruined and broken kingdom. He was in many respects the greatest man of Israel. Hia reign was. the Augustan age; but no name is less honored by J Hebrew posterity. There * are no aspirations for the return of his splendor. ' What the people long j for in all ' the ; voices of the prophets Is the throne of his father David: c" *'!'; ' ' Here lie tremendous lessons for our modern Christianity. We, too. have received our inheritance from our fathers. The Christian" forces had freed themselves from the debris of old world empires to subdue the savage strength of new and ferocious peoples, and to create a new world of opinions and of manners, and they succeeded in their tremendous task. A divine life has been given to art, new voices have spoken in literature, and religion and philosophy -•_ /• y HAVE JOINED HANDS. The material forces of the world have also yielded to the Christian peo ples. Merchant princes found uni versities with a material equipment which would be the despair of mon axchs. Stately year 'books tell the strength of the various denominations, and enterprises of missions and char ity command vast resources. It Is easy enough for spectacular oratory to show the glory of modern Christianity,, but we may r well ask with what weapons did our fathers win their victories? What is the real inheritance which they have left us? And are we increasing that patrimony, or are we wasting it without care or fear? ' The great struggles of former times begat great heroes. . Through fierce opposing ranks did our fathers break to drink a cup of cold water from the wells of Bethlehem. To our time do not many of their struggles seem wholly robbed of meaning? . Are we able to understand their moral earnestness and their heroic devotion? Are we not content to enjoy what we have received, while we shrink from stress of either soul or body? Only In the early part of this very century there was a man named Wil berforce in the English parliament who was the Idol of society, the favor ite of women and the pride of politi cians. But one day the plowshares of God's truth drove through the pleasant gardens of his soul, and he awoke to his need of stalwart growths of moral purpose. In this state the sigh of the slave came to his ear, and thenceforth he fought down English greed, its jealousy of France, and its pride of commerce, until not a slave ship car ried - - :' ":/yy:- THE ENGLISH FLAG, and as Isaiah foretold Christ- so did this man prophesy Abraham Lincoln. Where are the men in our political life today who are meeting our present problems in the same spirit of devo tion SpA heroism? "But there were three great virtues which belong**! to the Christianity of our fathers which we need to ask whether or not we are squandering. The first of these is the sense of obligation. Time was, when the word duty sounded in the ears of the Chris tian like the voice of a trumpet to the eager warrior. You may tell me that the old fierce sense of duty was born of belief hi the material hell. Well, is it because we have become so much wiser that we have also come Into a time of soul paralysis? Is it not- pos sible that the beauty of holiness may become to us an appeal deeper, holler and more vital- than ; belonged to the hopes and fears of the earlier time? The church can never be great in its influence over men until the sense of obligation is stronger thai our love of ease : :J^mJ!^^^^i^a^Baam^XL4ammm}^SbM Another virtue which we inherited from the fathers and which . we are fast dissipating is the virtue of - en thusiasm. It is no longer well bred to be In earnest. ! There are so many sides to every question and we cannot be very sure. No one can become passionate about the uncertain. . Vital earnestness belongs to narrowness, and- in our modern" breadth the old enthusiasm has died. But pinch your self, = man, you are surely still alive. Yes, and thy soul is alive also, and If your ears are wholly deaf ; the cry ' of i. the | world jj for good ness -. and . truth and hope a_id>;ifi.w is no less ! strenuous, than' in the f ancient tlme_t. :'y "*: '- ' The last virtue of which ' I speak ' by the fathers bequeathed to.us Is the ; pi VIRTUE OF REVERENCE. 'y:j To the, fathers the presence- of God was a tremendous fact. We have found out that their ridtion of God was ill formed. _~ That He is a - calmer, greater and more majestic j being than they dreamed. Are we not in danger of ending by finding but- that He is j|sj Immensely dignified that it is wisest | to ignore Him altogether? And what have we got In the place of the old fashioned xluty, enthusiasm and reTif . erence? We have traded for a fine, invoice of ' expansive agnosticism. We have a smattering, of modern science. -We have a form of "culture so languid that we must use. breathing tests to find out that it is_alive. The rough warriors of . David's ii time with thAA hoarse cries' and clanging armor are no longer to be seen in the streets of our Jerusalem, but instead of them we have any quantities"; of apes and p^{|^ cocks. f^esh from - Tarshish. It took some -centuries' -'for-* the church to emerge from the bondage of the sec ular. The way was fought through a hard wilderness. It called for some rather unlovely virtues, but scarcely has the church reached her possibility of power when she make new affinities with Egypt '/. 7'pP.P.pp/ And what is the secular? At the very heart 'of it It is faith In the commonplace. • It is a belief that noble motives of life are I a species of insanity. That there is nothing beau tiful unless it appeals to the senses. And heroism and self-sacrifice are just a little ridiculous. It was secularism that was at the bottom of that stoic philosophy which made spiritual' numb ness the greatest of virtues, and made suicide the privilege of the philosopher. Suicide was scourged out of Europe by the. hot indignation . belonging to a. Christian faith in God and man. The modern wave of suicidal mania which has swept over us comes out of a be lief that man is cheap, and life is vul gar. Out of this same spirit of sec ularism has been born the brood of evils that threaten our modern life. j Mr. Leeky has taught us that every age has its own virtue. No doubt our own splendid time has its own ex- cellencies. But the world will not grow rich or great unless It treasures- its past as well as uses its present When each • age shall preserve the Inherited virtues of the race and en- I rich them with its own achievements r we shall be on the way to fulfill the de- stiny of man. This generation. is wast- ing much of its inheriterice, and it is by no means certain that it will leave the world permanently enriched by its life and labors. :■ . :) SHOT BY HIS FRIEND.

A Remarkable Train. \ One of the most remarkable trains that ever traveled over the rails of an American road, left Philadelphia recently,. destined for Boston. It was ! composed of 25 cars, all handsomely j decorated, and every one of them from first to last loaded with "Hires' Rootbeer." There Is no question but that it was the largest consignment of the kind ever made at one time in j America. The value of this shipment ' was nearly $100,000. and It attracted great attention among the trade and railroad men, who gave the train the . appropriate name of "Hires' Rootbeer Special." The cars contained 6,460 j cases in all, 4,035 gross, or 581,040 bot- | ties of Hires' Rootbeer Extract, suf- | ficient to make • 2,905,200 gallons of ' rootbeer, or over 10 glasses for each I man, woman and child in New Eng- land. They also contained 2,425 cases holding 60,000 pint bottles of rootbeer] ready to drink. The above figures represent only about one-third of the total amount of this popular beverage consumed in New England during the season, but they give some idea of the wonderful popularity throughout the entire coun try of this greatest of all temperance drinks. A "Temperance Drink for Temperance People" is the name given this most delightful beverage. Com posed entirely of roots and herbs with out the slightest trace of Intoxicants, it is worthy the name. Not only is It a delicious thirst-satisfying drink, but it has a widely recognized value as a tonic, strengthening the system and enriching the blood. Baptized in a Hurry. LAWRENCE, Kan., .

Addison Moore, . pastor of the [Woodland ' Park :Paptlst £ church, .-preached yesterday 'morning to a large congregation w the following cogent sermon, upon" the nature of '''Repentance." . /'.. i. '/' "/pi'i ' His text was from St. Luke xiii.. 4, 5: | '.'Those eighteen upon, whom the tower in Siloam fell, think ye they were sinners above all men? I tell you, nay; but except ye repent, .ye shall all likewise perish." .' . , { A synopsis is as follows: i/ii'i'7 :.'.'." • "Great calamities, in which many lives are lost, are frequently declared, by fanatics, to be judgments" from God because of sin; and those who 'suffer sudden death by reason of accident, are sometimes named as having been so .guilty in God's sight as to merit nothing but instant death at His com mand. Such judgment is condemned by. Christ. If God so dealt with men, the whole race would be cut off from the face of the earth, for all are alike guilty before Him; and in mercy He spares our lives that we may repent, and so gain from Him the gift of life eternal. f Repentance strikes at the. very root of the evil tendency that runs through all nature, and seeks to rescue us from the dominion of sin. If you look at the atoms of the material . world, you will find them possessed by the two forces of good and evil. Their .good hess consists in the active principle they have received from God; but the entire absence of sense, thought, feeling, and intelligence, is the ".. EVIL INSEPARABLE from their constitution. If left to themselves, they produce only chaos' and r eternal anarchy. 'To overcome this evil tendency; the great architect Works in them with His power; and there emerges mysterious landscape of light and beauty, spread mi rich , pro- fusion through the depths of infinite space, where planets like our own ap- pear; and the seasons hold :. their mystic dance,, and hills and valleys are lit up with splendid sun and moon I an£ . stars, and . drink in . the rain . and . dews of heaven. ...i /..,. :.-.,../„ ..

Tremen dous powers of '. darkness,' issuing from '. the awful abyss of human sin, are ever threatening, life's happiness and • peace. Mighty are all these and they will conquer us as the wilderness conquers the garden, unless repent ance rescues us from sin. . . ~ But .what is repentance? It is a- ' " Bi'X THREE-FOLD ACTION, '-'// having first an Intellectual element, whereby we are enabled to see our selves as we really are, In danger of being overcome by the evil forces of our nature, unless escape can be se cured. It has again an emotional ele ment, whereby we learn to hate the evil, that so cruelly drives us away from goodness and eternal peace; and there Is also the voluntary element whereby we are led to turn away from evil -and seek God's pardon for our sin. It Is as If one lived life-long upon some South Sea ' island, where every hour was spent in idle ' pleasure, all unconscious of volcanic fires slumber ing in the mountain. Suddenly the eruption comes and dread disaster darkens all the scene. The mind grasps the horrors pending, and the heart is filled with hatred for the evil thing that threatens all that life held dear. Despair would "reign supreme were there no ways of rescue from the certain doom of death. But a ship lies waiting in the harbor, with sails all spread. There is chance of escape! Then away! as fast as favoring winds will bear us, till we come to kindlier shores. 'py That is repentance. An awakening to "our perilous position, a hatred of the sin that seeks to slay us; salva tion- from despair and death by a voluntary turning from the scenes of sin, and entrusting ourselves to the ship of truth, to which Christ as cap- tain welcomes* us, and in which He will bear us away from death, and bring us at last in safety to anchor in the harbor of the eternal city of God's love. y . •.•;.-:•" j :..pl Improved Train "Service. ifPpr and after March 24th. 1895, the Eastern -Railway of \ Minnesota will run* double daily passenger train ser vice "between the Twin Cities and Du '•iuth knd West Superior.

April 21.— One of ; the officers of the grand lodge of the : Order of Elks said today: :- "Indications are that the friction • which has existed in the Order of Elks during the past year will be ami ably settled, all differences adjusted and r the order ' be stronger than ever; In accordance with the resolutions •;adopted at the meeting held in Chi- : cago on March 18, at which both fac tions were represented, more than two hundred of the three hundred lodges of the order have indorsed the action taken and decided to send grand dodge members to the meeting to be held "in Buffalo May 20. Grand Ex- alted Ruler William Frieday, of Brooke lyn, N. V., issued the call for that special meeting, stating that the sen timent in the organization Is to meet: as brothers all questions of personal ambition to intervene, and predicting that the order will be stronger In the future than it has been in the past. There Is every, assurance from lead- ing members that the Buffalo meeting will result in the complete restoration of harmony in the ranks of the or- der." Hon. A. M. Foran, a prominent mem ber of the order, who was the attorney of the Atlantic City faction in the recent litigation in the United States court here, said tonight that there was no -truth In the report of the probable settlement of the difficulties. He de clares that the action of the Cleveland lodge in instructing that members of the grand lodge be sent to the Buffalo meeting was illegal, and that it will be reconsidered at the next meeting. Foran says the contest between the two factions will be waged to the end, and he Is confident the side which he represents will win. ,• ' CHOIR BOYS REWARDED SOXG SERVICE Iff ST. PACL»S EPISCOPAL.

Paul's Episcopal . church was celebrated last night by a musical service, in the church, during which the' prize, medals were, distributed. Many friends . of the. youthful singers were present and participated in the service. The service opened with a processional hymn by the entire choir, composed" of thirty-five boys and six teen ■ men, under the leadership :of Choirmaster Yapp Next came a stately psalm, which was- followed by the Impressive, sonorous "Magnificat." In the succeeding anthem, "He :Is Risen," Howard Yapp exhibited a de livery and timbre worthy of special mention. Master Yapp is acknowl edged to be , among the best of St Paul's youthful artists. Another hymn preceded a brief sermon on "Doubt" by ths rector, Dr. John Wright. This waa part of the regular evening serv ice, and did not pertain to the special service at all. _. .%,.-... ..■':--.,..- . . At the conclusion of the sermon, Dr. Wright, standing on the chancel steps, .called before him the five for tunate boys who wera to be reward ed. To William Cumbey, aged twelve years, was given the Patterson medal for attention and neatness. This medal was the gift of Miss Wagoner in mem ory of the late venerated rector. Dr. Patterson'. Fred Robinson, also aged twelve years, received the Wright med al for general deportment. This was the gift of the rector. To Phillip Arzt, aged thirteen, went the Whiting medal. donated by Miss M. Whiting for good behavior. Howard Yapp, the nightin gale of the choir, ; waa very justly awarded the Miller medal for singing. This 'was the gift of Mrs. N. D. Mill er, in memory of her little son, Eben, who died while a member of the choir. Eddie Anderson, aged thirteen, was gave a $5 gold pieca, the gift of Choir master Yapp in recognition of Ed die's long and faithful service as a member of the choir. All the medals are made of gold. Each one is at tached to a colored silk ribbon. They are of splendid design, and were made after the notion of J. F. Knight. After the prizes were awardad, Mrs. Punderson sang a soprano solo, "The Plains of Pence," which was charact erized by volume and sympathetic power. The service closed with a recessional hymn, in which the thirty boys who had received no rewards took part with a spirit that conveyed the impression they had hope that their turns would come next year.

Hardware. ~'~ The Invention of bullet-proof shields Is enlarging, and the patent office will soon, if it goes on at the present pace, be compelled to establish a spe cial subdepartment for the exposi tion of devices in this direction. A point is laid down by a New York engineer, which is that the outer sur face of such material should be of a soft, yielding material. This breaks the blow, and the resisting material is more apt to ward off effectually force of the projectile. If the outer surface is hard and unyielding, the blow is sometimes so great as to overpower the recipient of . the shock, and in stances are on record that men on the battlefield have actually been killed by this shock. The whole sub. ject is an intricate one, and the prog. ress made in it is not such as todetei the inventor 'from thinking out new devices. Knife Blades.

Moore, the New Pas- tor of the Little Church .; of Christ, DELIVERSHIS FIRST SERMON And Sustains His High ; Repu tation as a Pulpit Orator. AN IMMENSE CONGREGATION Assembles at the Church and Greets Its New Leader Cordially. [ Rev. A. R. Moore, the new pastor of the Church of Christ, corner of Nelson and Farrington avenues, preached an admirable initial sermon yesterday morning. • The church was completely filled. Much satisfaction was expressed at • the ; thorough .vindication furnished by , the, morning's sermon of the high :repfltatlon. of . Mr. Moore as a pulpit orator. His theme was "The Adapta tion of Christianity to the Wants of Man," taking as his text John xi., 24 and 25. > "He knew man, and needed not: that any should testify of man, for he knew what .was in man." He said, in substance: j It gives me pleasure to greet you today as pastor. I do not, feel that I am 'an entire stranger, for, though it has not been my good fortune until now to visit your beautiful city, or to see you face to face, yet I have heard much of your good work, your perse verance and your faith. Besides, I al ways feel at home among Christians. Our aims, feelings and hopes are one. We are children of the same kind and loving Father. I rejoice in the fact that we can claim His providential guidance, for He has said, "I will guide thee. with mine eye." It will be necessary for you to be forbearing with me. I shall need your counsel and your aid. I shall be pleased to have you deal freely with me. Treat me as your brother, friend and pastor. I can say nothing today as to plans for work. There will be time enough to formulate plans when I shall have become better acquainted. We are TO LABOR TOGETHER. We.are to be co-laborers in the Lord. There is work for all. Let us strive to be guided by the Holy Spirit in . all things. Let us draw near to Christ be filled with His spirit, and inspired with His sweet and pure love, and the fullness of His blessing will rest upon lis.-;. :p2 'p-'upp ,pp:.-2P: I p.t'i .to talk to you this morning about the "Adaptation of Christianity to the Wants of Man." There are many religions in the world, and all possess more or less of truth. It behooves us to recognize truth-where ever we find it. All of these religions meet, in some measure, some of the wants of men. But not one of them can lay claim to universality, except the religion of Jesus Christ By a univer sal religion, we mean one that meets all of the highest and noblest demands of the. soul, and which is adapted to all ages and all races alike. This universal character of the Christian religion is seen in the claims of its founder. God promised of old that in Him all the nations of the earth should be blessed. 'He proclaimed Himself a friend to all, saying, "Come. unto me all ye that labor and are" heavy laden and I will give you rest." He died for all,. and thus declared his love for man. The power of His death over man can not be measured. Napoleon said that Jesus won more followers in His death than he, Napoleon, had won in his life. He contemplated a world wide mission. As the Son of Man. He was the second great head of the race, and His great sympathetic heart went out to all without distinction. The adaptation of Christianity is seen in what it supplies. Tbe hlghtest aspirations of the soul are something to believe, something to love and to be loved in return, something to work for and something to hope for. Christi anity supplies all of these. We can believe and trust Christ implicitly. He is also worthy of our profoundest love. He died for us because He loved us. We love Him because He first loved us. He has also given us plenty of work to do. Man is happiest when he is busiest The church must be built up and en larged. The world must be evange lized and souls saved. Here Is enough to keep all busy. Finally, we yearn for a higher, nobler and letter life. When we stand at the grave of some loved one, we instinctively ask, •'Does death end all?" Christ answers: "I am the resurrection and the life. If a man believe in me, tho' he were dead, yet shall he live again. He that liveth and believeth in me shall never die." Thus the Christian is to realize the dream of the Psalmist when he sang: "When I awake in thy likeness. I shall be satisfied." All praise to God who has given such a beautiful and abiding hope, and who has supplied every noble aspiration of the soul. Diamond Cutting-. Not only is diamond cutting not a specially high-paid occupalon, but it Is one Involving a most humiliating system of espionage to the worker. Each man is held strictly to account for the stones he receives on going to work in the morning, and the count has to be carefully taken when the unfinished work is turned in at night to be locked up in a safe against the return of the workman the next day. The possibilities of theft are great, though a diamond workman knows that an attempt to dispose of an un finished stone would bring suspicion upon him wherever the attempt was made. Not Satisfactory.
