The trials 7of bringing the gospel to
•"■the attention of the vast number of 'men
who are, yearly, engaged .In ; the lumber
: business 'in > the * far' northern; part of the
< state was the theme upon which F. E. Hig-
S gins, known as the ."Lumber Camp Evan
■ gelist." spoke* at the '.House- of Hope
% Presbyterian church'last night. An audi
* ence that taxed the -capacity of the edi
gj fice listened while Mr. Higgins told of
work; which he has made' a life study,
- and 7to 'which he had dedicated his fu
ture. :. , • — :-f ■• -.; ,
y -The speaker is a man apparently well
. suited for the - work. Possessed of - a
" strong, well 7 knit frame, and a voice in
keeping-* with his physical appearance,
he disdains the regular apparel of the
minister, and Instead^ dresses .In an
every day business, suit and has a nat
ural .appearance, of ya man whose dally
a*V>ci;Uiojps are with men used -to hard
ships. '''•-■•-'" .-..-— V. yy;;.'-.
Mr. Higgins was born in: the lumbering
districts of Ontario, and until he 1* was
.twenty years'" of age* worked 7 with the
• lumbermen,'- taking ' part in their * every
day duties and at the. same time > un
; consciously fitting himself ' for . the labors
which afterwards <presented * themselves
to him as necessary to the welfare of
-.the lumbermen.. ..: . . . . .. * y
-.-.. 7. Devotes 'Life to the- Work „ '-
. At the age of twenty Mr. Higgins
started to study for the Presbyterian
.ministry.: but during. a~ visit to the lum
ber camps, i was invited to • speak Ito ■ the
men. and then was .: seized with the
- thought. that 20,000 men were "in the
woods every.; winter without the 7 least
possible chance of hearing the gospel.
• For the next seven years, he tried to
prevail-upon .the missionary, board of the
Presbyterian church to take measures
to reach the men. with the result that
several years ago he was appointed to act
as a : missionary, and: since that time has
been * actively engaged * in traveling
throughout the camps, preaching and dis
. tributing reading mattery and- aiding the
men i7_ all the othe <* """ays which - pre
- sented themselves. . -
i.'"l 1 sal&ons and gambling hells that
.line the railroads leading to every camp,
and j oftentimes located within a • stone's
throw of the men, are the hardest bar
riers that I meet/l.said Mr. ■ Higgins.
■y As soon as the: road is laid out to a
ne w camp the saloonkeepers and gam
blers go ahead along the line, and when
.the camps, are ready for occupancy : li
quor and gambling devices greet " the
men on every hand. . . .....
"My territory, over which mv work ex
tends, covers £00. miles north and south of
the Green river. It contains over 250
lumber camps and presents to my atten
tion over £0.000 men. Of course* only "a
. small part of this territory can be cover
red by one man. but we now have - five
missionaries in the field and need many
more. The lumbermen *• are themselves
liberal in the support of the work, and
... annually give- a large sum to the mis
sionaries, although the «greater part of '
H this is immediately expended In the pur- I
chase of reading matter. . y-y-Tt y|

men who i will go into the woods, deny i

FATHER WANTS STATE
< TO SURRENDER CHiLD
Right of Authorities to Place
Children for Adoption to
' - "" ' "■' ' '-' ' "7'
Be Tested '7-: -
The right of the state of Minnesota to
place r children,*. inmates of " its ; public in
stitutions, -with ; families for adoption: will
be.tested in the Ramsey county district
court Wednesday. •■,.':'• , •
:/■ Wednesday, morning' six-year-old • Hatti J
; Clubb, - a ■ bright colored' child, t will ' come
• before Judge Kelly in the district court on
habeas corpus proceedings that will test
3 the J right of ' the f 'authorities In '.'charge of
the state .. public ' school .. at Owatonna to
place children confided to their care with
families for adoption. 7 :. •*'.•?..c-iv.
Frank Clubb. of Minneapolis, the father
has secured the writ, directed-'against
William Hicks, of St. 7 Paul, with, whom
.the child wa» placed for ultimate adoption
.and when the case is called E. G.""Morrill
superintendent of the ' Owatonna- school!'
will put In evidence records showing that
the little girl Is. a ward of the state and
subject to.be sent back to the school at
any time. .. ; ; .
Merely Agent of State -y . ••'
The father seeks to take the child from
Hicks because, it is alleged. Hicks is in
.unlawful possession, never having ac
quired a right from the state. Supt Mer
rill will hold .that Hicks, is merely the
agent of the state, having signed a con
tract to^ c5 re for the child until It should
be decided whether it Is to be adopted
bymSlcks ' or. sent back to the' school..
. This puts the rights 'of - the • state In
such - cases * to * the test and will bring
forth an interesting'decision. ■■*.--,,•,
*-Some eighteen months ago the ''little
girl, whose mother had died, was taken
before the probate court of Minneapolis
and on the plea that the father was finan
cially unable to support the girl she was
committed to the school at Owatonna.
and thereby,, it .is - declared, became a
ward; of the state. At the end of about
a year \ William Hicks, of St. ' Paul, able
to support the; child.- applied' for It. - He
was given • possession .under the - regular
contract, which: provides that if the child
is not adopted:within a given time, with
the consent. of : the school' authorities : it
shall be returned to the school. ..
7 y Father Wants His Child
"While Hicks is caring for the child. un
der this v contract<■ the father comes for
ward and seeks to gain possession by the
habeas corpus. -••'".' _ • -y
V The question raised Is, of ; the greatest
importance to the state and to-the hun
dreds of families who have adopted chil
dren :. from ■ the school. If -the father can
reassume his rights and secure possession
,of.a ward of the state while the ward is
on contract for adoption it. follows that
the parent could exercise the same rights
'after.adoption, it Is argued'by the school
authorities. - - . - --.■«. ?
Vln this ' particular case it is contended
by the authorities that the law- has been
compiled with, and that Clubb. the father
has sacrificed hie rights to possession of
the child. And that.- in fact, he has had
no such rights since.the-court decided to
send the child to the school. 7 7
Supt. Merrill Explains 7
:- "In such cases the . father, mother "or
other relative,* stands •on • the • same plane
as the ; person who has no blood interest
in : the child,*-' t explained ' Supt." Merrill "It
would be a question of ability to support
the .child. If Clubb j had applied for pos
session of his child, previous to its being
sent - to. the Hicks ' home, he -. would have
been compelled, to make the same showing
that Hicks did. 'y He has, according to our
view," no : right -to • possession - of •■ the girl,
and ■> we . shall -' be ' represented.- in * court .to
protest; against• our ward being put into
the possession: of her father or any. other
person not formally approved by. us The
mode | used, with the object. of having . the
Clubb child i- adopted, is < the - same "as in
all other cases, t and aif ■ the | application
of : the father for, possession Is granted jlt
would ibe i necessary to -y make . - radical
changes.ln our ;present system." - .*- •
Board of Control Interested
:" "There": is ■ a regular legal 'prece'diire^^ln
such-, cases," said J. F. Jacobson. chair
man of the board ■■ of i controL >; "l n s the
firat i place J. he i child: Is. regularly' sent to
the school >by the ■ proper.; authorities, • the
purpose being to find homes for.them* We
do not bind outline children ;in any ease
but in-all Instances. they are adopted into
families. Hundreds !of children have thus
been secured good ; homes and good treat
ment, and If It should be decided that the
adoption under such -conditions is not
legal the work being done Iwould" be seri
ously, hampered.' . - .■:.-.. ; , , ■- . -
, "It •is * easy: to;understand .that"; if -per
sons desiring : : to * adopt - children • should
learn V that ilt .would be possible for the
natural, parent *or ■, parents 3to appear «at
some time in the future, and: by getting a
decision of the court reassume possession
of ■ the > adopted child»there: would. be • few
children, taken ' from ;the^school. •*I fear

> •*'■; Hugo Puzzles Politician*
Mr. Hugo's " action, or more properly
Speaking, his Inaction, during the past
ten days is inexplicable to the politicians.
In some: quarters: the , genuineness of his
candidacy is-now .'even questioned, but it
is - generally conceded:' that the defeat of
R. C. : Dunn for - governor : made > hope •of
Mr..Hugo's election as speaker a practical
impossibility. .-: sWß*lftJlßylr,ffMM
Like Mr. Claque," Mr. Huge had heen a
candidate for the - speakership - for nearly
two years," and he.had prosecuted a letter
writing f campaign - for-- tttb _ past - three
months. - Quite a large percentage of the
Republican house members were unoppos
ed both for renomination and re-election,
and to these both ' candidates - addressed
themselves by means of letters. Friendly
replies were, of course, received by both
candidates from nearly-every, man written
to. and it appears that Hugo took the ex
pressions of personal friendship"- for
pledges of support. --. -" -7 m >•'
- He came to St. Paul three days after
the . election of Nov. 8, < attended a con
ference with four First . district members,
and -" announced that he . was *. assured of
election as speaker.... It is generally.:ad
mitted that desirable chairmanships • were
apportioned to members in different parts
of. the state at th conference, J but ' the
men who '.were, to profit by. the combina
tion seem'to have been unable to deliver
the goods and: the; Hugo boom died -. a
borning. * - ' , ,'• . *
:-- Mr. Hugo, : himself; went to Michigan
and. has - not " since ; been -at - St, - Paul. A
member'on the i Fourth district delegation
went to Duiuth Saturday to ascertain the
situation. -' He was '. unable to find - Mr.
Hugo; . T. W. -Hugo,- his" brother, : former
mayor, of Duiuth, knew nothing of his
plans, and Senator: G.-*W.-Laybourn.. who
had publicly' declared. that Hugo : was as
good as elected speaker, sidestepped i the
situation - and * said.be I wasl not. managing
his friend's campaign for the speakership.
Members of - the : St.. Louis county house
delegation•-. could give • the." Fourth, dis
trict man no information..and he returned
to St.* Paul to cast his vote for .Claque at
the. caucus of the ! Fourth : district dele
gation Saturday night.: v*H»"*'igj"{'"i"^o^' *'* i
i. •' ._ *, Several Explanations
*' One explanation given by men who have
been In close touch with .the": contest" is
that Hugo * made one grandstand' play for
"the speakership, . and when *it failed he
disappeared from the scene"T- to :*permit
Claque to capture the plum practically, un
. opposed. ,VAnother Is that Hugo's apparent
failure to arrive was due to a rupture of
his relations ■ with W. A. Nolan .of the
First, district ■• --...-■' . .*-.-"
Nolan was In the Hugo conference," but
If leaked'out that there was a failure to
reach an agreement relative to the patron
age, of % the speakership-and that he went
home to remain a candidate himself ' for
' the speakership. * His failure •to . capture
more than five of his own district mem
bers, and his interest in the candidacy of
Julius A Schmahl of Redwood county for
. the • chief - clerkship of the house, i are; said
to ' have led him -to • withdraw from *-' the
race ■ and -7 to hang" his fortunes "on r. the
Claque candidacy.
*' "I have withdrawn from the speakership
'contest," Mr. Nolan said yesterday.*- "I sun
out of It. I want to thank my First dis
trict friends . and others " throughout ' the
state - who expressed»an . Interest In my
candidacy, but I am out of It." -•.-.'-.----,,,
. "Is »It • tree - that v: you -' are • ■ now ry for
Claque?" he.was.asked.;- •
"Yes. I am for Frank Claque. I served
with him;. two - years - ago and ■ like : him
personally, and being rto.longer a candi
date. I shall do what I can to secure his
election as speaker," the Grand Meadow
man replied.- '
* It is -admitted in political circles. that
the Clapp managers had. picked Hugo to
win.. It is not known that the senatorial
interest was thrown: to the Duiuth men,
but. Claque's friends . are - convinced -. that
they have received no favors at the sena
tor's hands. . Mr. Claque is avowedly for
Clapp. but the antl-Clapp men insist that
they, have scored • a victory in defeating
Hugo, while he bore . the stamp >of ,the
Clapp approval. ' "~

Every train •- that -. pulled-. into the depots
from : the Northwest 7 Saturday 7 morning
unloaded streams of ; men. women : and
children, and everyone wore the colors of
Minnesota. Once * free -of - the * depots the
crowd surged off In * different directions,

yards to the lake front. >
". V . -. Swarm ; Over". Chicago
".: On : every street "could be seen groups,
loading or hurrying, and the colors that
hung from their coat lapels was a bond
of ; friendship. .- Nearly -everyone was a
| stranger In a strange land, and the fact
that any two persons • came from Minne
sota was a sufficient Introduction to war
rant the exchange of local knowledge.-The
policemen around the- depots were the
centers Of violent attraction and the min
ions of whatever law there Is in the
Windy City had a busy time telling -how
to get to Marshall field, Lincoln park, the
Masonic temple, the new postofflce and
the,lake.- .-.. : -.. * - ...
.-• As the noon hour approached the crowd
from-Minnesota became thicker on the
streets until a man without varsity rib
bons was . rare. ,-r —
. Then, began the grand rush for the
football grounds. Some dashed to the
suburban station, . others took the elevat
ed and still others went. via the surface
lines, all with Marshall field their destina
tion. The - Minnesota rooters as a rule
took no chances -on being late for the
game, and before * the . hour for the con
test the crowd on the field was decidedly
Gopher. The - grand stand • and general
surrounding, alone made the gathering
distinct from Northrop field, and to a
casual observer it would have appeared
that . Minnesota was playing on - home
grounds.' ' * - -
.'After the "game it was a case of "cv-,
erybody 'take care' of • himself and there
was a mad rush to get back down town, i
It was so dark that friends ■ could hardly
be recognized a few. feet • away and once
.outside the gates the guardians of par
ities, had a hard time rounding them up
and - starting them" in.the right direction.
i The Minnesota delegation was : flushed
with victory * and nobody along the line
to . the business 7 district had any reason
for being in •ignorance as to the outcome
of the .contest.. .The fact that Minnesota
had won by a score of. 1" to 0 was made
known from - all \ kinds vof -vehicles, and
no one was, allowed to forget It.:
-Nothing but Minnesota
4 The burly patrolmen* on the corners and
the dignified conductors on the elevated
and suburban looked, first astonished and
then. shocked 7as . the *. noise - increased In
volume, but soon became resigned' to the
impetuosity of ■ their brethren" from * the
West, * Down ' town the crowd ** scattered
to - the restaurants and - football talk
drowned out, the . clatter of knives and
forks. After dinner the theaters were in
vaded, and every show-house In Chicago
was liberally patronized.
"rßy the time the theaters were out the
trains were starting ■_ tor home and the
scramble began all over again. The far
seeing ones, had taken ■ the - precaution to
secure their berths immediately after the
arrival in Chicago and the thoughtless
paid .the penalty. -Day coaches, were the
best to .be had and * the • long ■ trip home
began.
The traffic down and back was so heavy
that It taxed the roads to their utmost
merely to haul the .throng to say nothing
of . feeding them • and furnishing beds" for
those inclined ■to sleep. Going down * the
natural and artificial excitement of the
crowd kept the rooters up late until : they
decided with one. accord that they were
hungry. Following this startling revela
tion was a rush to the buffet car of each
train. =.. The . lordly _ porter person was in
every instance engaged ministering to the
third of a' packed car and couldn't ■ see
any financial reason - for making sand
wiches when he could hand out bottles of
beer for the same price. As' long as the
thirst held out there was nothing to eat.
until, finally some deep - thinker. suggested
that • the : drinkers pause and curtail the
demand.
* Hungry Line Waits for Food"
- This usually i had the desired effect and
long lines reached through the length of
a car formed at the door of the diminu
tive kitchens, while, the porter tolled with
the carving knife over the loaves and
ham. -.-.-• "■'. .-•-"■
*■ The morning brought on the appetite
renewed and reinforced and, as there was
but one ."diner* to ' about every dozen
coaches,.- lines had to be formed - again
and some of those who got up early hard
ly finished their breakfasts when the
train arrived in Chicago. *
Getting the: trains to Chicago was a
task that'« worried the railroad officials
and scarcely a" one arrived ,on time. \ Ev
ery bit 'of - equipment was In - use and
coaches belonging; to a - half • dozen roads
were linked. together indiscriminately...', .
- Coming back '- the crowd - was not so
large, but still big enough to be unwieldy
and the strain began to tell on the roads.
Some trains took nearly seventeen hours
to make the return trip and those whq oc
cupied day-coaches down and back, were
weary as they never were weary, before.
Those who had' made the, previous night
hideous . with < their yells were content 4 to
see and moodily note the little stations as

J. ADAM BEOE REFUSES TO BE FITTED
FOR THE GUBERNATORIAL CROWN
Man From Duiuth Declares His
One Ambition ln/(Life^ Is to
Serve the Eighth District In
Congress — Believes That
Congressman Stevens, Too,
Has No Desire Attempt to
Bring the Dunn and Collins
Forces Back Into Same Camp
J. Adam Bede. the Duiuth congressman
hta° Se frt^ dl,» have started a boom for
him for the Republican nomination for
governor two , years hence, wants none of
it. and practically.? admits • his candidacy
for re-election to congress two years
nence.- .-*.*-* - - yy ■•-.*..
Congressman Bede was In St Paul
.yesterday,on his return from Kansas City
where he had been one of the speakers
at the annual banquet of the Commercial
club Friday night. •
: "I see that some of my friends have put
in circulation a story that I would do as
the gubernatorial candidate of. the Repub
licans - two, years. hence." he ■ said." "Per
mit me to say that I appreciate the honor
that they;would do me. but I am not a
candidate for any. office other than the
one I now hold; r I . believe that a'con
gressman's worth to his district is largely
measured by the acquaintance and experi
ence that he. is able to obtain, and I
trust that ' with. succeeding years ■I : may
be of more value to my district, I have
no ambition in the direction of governor
and want nothing tetter than to continue
to represent the Eighth. Minnesota dis
trict in congress. I have.no doubt that
the i movement in my. favor for the gover
nors nomination was inspired by. the best
of motives, but if I am allowed to remain
in congress I shall be fully satisfied.','
The • gubernatorial boom. for Bede: was
started by P. E. Dowling of Eveleth. a
member of the house of representatives,
and the original Bede man in the Eighth
congressional : district. Bode, in. common
with Congressman F. C. Stevens, has
a showing but it Is doubtful if there ever
will be throng. numbering 8.000 and the
Minnesota attendance record on a foreign
field has probably been established for a
long time to come. ■-*Bj**B
AID FOR MISSIONS
Episcopal Churches of City Ob
serve "Stir-up" Sunday
Yesterday being "Stir-up Sunday"—so
called traditionally from the first words of
the Episcopal collect—the local Episcopal
churches followed their usual practice and
"stirred up" communicants as - to the
needs of the city mission society.- It -is
this organization -that looks after the mis- ,
sion in the city and suburbs and after
certain of the weaker churches. : ;
Pledges were -requested, yesterday from
such persons in the Episcopal churches as
were willing to declare what amount they
would give, during the year, towards the
support of the Mission society. Sermons
,preached,touched, upon the usefulness and
the needs of the society"' "••---* J -•!';•
Thursday evening, Dec. 8. at Christ
church. Fourth Franklin streets, will
be held the * annual 'rally of Episcopal
churches under the auspices of" the Mis
sion society.* Local mission workers will
then announce the total of the -amounts
pledged yesterday, * and - will • report upon
the work of the society since the previous
annual ' meeting.: - "
The collect for yesterday—the twenty
fifth Sunday after Trinity or the first
before Adventreads: . •
"Stir up. we beseech thee. O Lord, the
wills' of thy faithful-people: that they,
plenteously bringing forth the fruits of
good works, may by thee be plenteously
rewarded." c ■ - r~.
The ecclesiastical ' nick-name • "Stir-up
Sunday" has Its counterpart in "Refresh
ment ■ Sunday.". a designation'- sometimes
given to "mid-lent," the fourth Sunday
In Lent. The nickname.* In this case, is
based upon the gospel—St. John vi, 1,
which tells how Jesus fed the multitude
with the loaves and fishes.

seriously injured yesterday.
Carrie was bitten in the afternoon" by a
vicious Newfoundland dog. and is at the
city hospital in a dangerous condition as a
result of shock and loss of blood.
Clara. stumbled on the sidewalk while
running away from some boys who fright
ened her last night about 7:30 o'clock", and
she suffered a fracture of her right leg

at 327 Kentucky street. Early in the
afternoon Carrie, with several young peo
ple, went into the back yard, -where a
dog was tied.- She was warned that he
was ugly, but she approached him, hold
ing out her hand caressingly, saying: "He
won't bite me, will you, doggie?".
As a response the animal snapped and
seized her arm, tearing it badfy. The girl
fainted and was carried to the house. A
policeman was called, and he summoned
the Dueas street patrol wagon, • and the
girl was hurriedly removed to the city
hospital. .
The second accident occurred as Clara
was on her way to her home. A number
of boys who were congregated on the side
walk on Kentucky street called after her .
