TALKS CHRISTIAN SCIENCE.
An Omalin. Jurist Abandons I,nvr to
Practice IHh Faith.
Judge J. R. Clarkson, of Omaha, speaks
Thursday evening at the People's church
on Christian science. Mr. Ciurkson is
one of the best known lawyers of Oma
ha, He has recently sold his fine library,
turned his lucrative practice over to oth
ers, closed his offices and become a
Christian science healer. To all inquiries
of his numerous friends he replies:
"I was under Christian science treat
ment for some months, and became so
impressed with the beauty of its princi
ples as a religion, and its efficacy as a
medium for the healing of the sick and
the destruction of sin, that I concluded
I oould do more good to fellow mortals
and to myself through the practice of
Christian science than the practice of
law. I found by numerous experiences
that I could heal by virtue of the prin
ciples Involved. Is not that reason
enough?"
Though for many years Judge Clarkson
could scarcely read without the use of
powerful glasses he discarded these when
be adopted Christian science, and now
reads as easily as in his youth. He was
elected to the district bench in Omaha
in 18S9, but resigned in 1891. He was
born in Chicago March 23, 1855, and is a
nephew of Gen. T. S. Clarkson, ex-com
mander-in-chief of the Grand Army of
the Republic. He Is a tall, vigorous man,
and his sincerity and fire, which so long
marked him at the Douglas county bar,
are still retained.
AMHERST'S PRESIDENT COMING.
Will Bo the Guest of Emerson W.
Peet Saturday.
Next Saturday evening Emerson W.
Peet, a former trustee of-Amherst, will
give to the alumni and friends of the col
lege a reception, at his residence In honor
of the newly elected president of Amherst
college, George Harris, D. D,, who will
visit the Twin Cities on Saturday and
Sunday next, for. the purpose of meeting
the sons of Amherst in the Northwest.
President Harris was for a number of
years professor of theology and sociology
before being called to administer the af
fairs of his alma mater, and he has long
been recognized as a man of flue scholar
ship and unusual ability. He filled two
successful pastorates before going ''to An
dover to teaoh, and was editor of the
Andover Review for eleven years.
The election of President Harris was
particularly gratifying- to Amherst alumni
throughout the country, and the Amherat
men of the Twin Cities are preparing to
give him an enthusiastic welcome.
Next Sunday morning, President Harris
will preach at Plymouth church, Minne
apolis, in response to an Invitation ten
dered him by the Rev. Dr. L. H. Hallock,
who was In Amherst with him.
UNWHOLESOME MEAT.
An Officer of the Local Association
Say* Some Is Handled.
"It is a fact," said John Rashlck, seo
retary of the Retail Meat Dealers' asso
ciation yesterday, "that Inferior and un
wholesome foodstuffs are being foisted
upon an unsuspecting public, as evidenced
by the report of tho state dairy and food
commissioner, and also our own health
department. Yet, In no Una of businessa
Is the public imposed upon by unscrupu
lous dealers to such an extent as in the
meat business. Cattlo are shipped Into
the two cities, and when there Is a sus
picion that the government Inspector
might condemn animals, these cattle are
spirited away and killed at night Then
they are sold at whatever they will fcring
to dealers, who, in turn, dump them on
the market at cut prices, with which le
gitimate dealers cannot compete. Is It
any wonder that many people, apparently
in good health, suddenly succumb to
some mysterious an&_jiauseous disease,
such as cancer and the like, when they
may have eaten diseased, that is, poi
soned meat? Prime beef, which, by the
way, almost always bears the govern
ment inspection mark, is being sold at
from 8 cents to 9 cents, and In some In
stances even 10 cents per pound, : whole
sale, In this market." ,
WANTED FOR FORGERY.
A. E. Reelc Arrested on a. Telegram
From ISntie.
A. E. Reek, who arrived in this city
yesterday from Butte, Mont., was ar
rested by Detectives Campbell and Mey
er, on a telegram from Chief of Police
Lavalle, of Butte, stating that Reek was
wanted for forgery. Reek was arrested
at the homo of relatives, 749 Reaney
street, where his wife Is staying. T7hen
the detectives first approached Reek he
said he was A. E. Reek. After he learn
ed their business he refused to give any
name, and likewise at the station refused
to say who he was. He refuses to In
any way discuss his arrest.

THE ST. PAUI, GLOBE, SUNDAY, JANUARY 14, 1900.
HUMAN LIFE IS SAFER
AND A ST. PAUL BOY HAS HELPED
CONSPICUOUSLY IN MAK
ING IT SO
SO SAYS MANILA TRIBUNE
Policing; of tli© City by the Troops
and Native Police Is Hlprhly Com
mended in Reports From the
metropolis of Luzon, — Arrests
Are Decreasing- in Every Dis
trict.
In view of he fact that the Thirteenth
Minnesota for several months policed the
city of Manila, and Lieut. Trowbrldge,
the present chief of detectives, is a St.
Paul boy, the following account of th«
present police force in the capital ol
Luzon is of special Interest to Minne
sotans. In its issue of Deo. 6, the Manila
Tribune says:
"Yesterday morning 1 there was a clear
docket at the Anda street police court
and the Judge was presented with a pair
of white gloves. The number of arresta
Is decreasing In every district of the city
and the police find their, duties very eaay
at present. '
"It Is no more than natural that there
should be a lull, after the stormy scenes
that have been enacted with, the police
during the last six months, and the period
of quietude is greatly appreciated by tho
majority of the force; still there are a
few restless spirits among them whos«
desire for excitement la unlimited, and
who are chafing under its lack at present.
"Tho service rendered by the natiy©
police has been most satisfactory, and
their establishment Is considered as pn«
of the wisest moves of the regime. They
have striven conscientiously to do their
duty, irrespective of friends or enemies,
and have succeeded to a great extent.
''They are not martyrs, and heroes, as
certain hysterical youths whose composi
tions have been imposed upon the long
suffering public would have everyone be
lieve. They are merely Filipinos,- who
have decided against the insurrection,
and desire to , secure . the , good will and
confidence of the present regline. ■
"The military police, consisting of th»
Sixth artillery, of whioh the provost
marshal general, Col. Wllliston, Is ccl
onelj the Twentieth infantry, arid a por
tion of the Fourteenth Infantry, have dls«
played a sieal and a determination In the
discharge of their duty, that merits the
commendation of everyone.
"As a result of the labors of the com
bined police force, Manila's prisons are
filled to overflowing, with guilty parties,
and It is immediately necessary that new
ones should be erected. The worst crim
inals, who led a bold career of crime
during the few months previous to the
fall of Spanish rule and continued with
the same after the American occupation,
are now behind the bars, and life and
property are much safer than they used
to be in Manila. ;„
"The able secret service department
and lta able chief, Lieut Trowbridge.
who, with the aid of his indefatigable
detectives, has accomplished a great deal
towards the suppression of crime is most
worthy of mention. From the time that
the secret cervlce department exposed
and broke up the "Armas Blancas," down
to the present time, their record has been
a brilliant one. Two of their number,
r amely, Fabino Ortez and Romualdo Jlm
eno have suffered death at the hands of
the criminal element. Nevertheless the
assassination of their two companions did
not intimidate Lieut. Trowbridge and hla
men as the murderers had expected It
would. Instead, it made the detectives
all the more vigilant and determined to
break up the criminal organization at all
"There are comparatively fftW cities In
the world where life and property are
more safe, than they -are In Manila today,
end this is due to the ever open eye of
the secret service and the combined police
departments of Manila, whose efficiency
has been proven beyond the shadow of a
doubt, by the efficient service rendered
by them." . -.

BLAKELEY IS SLATED
TO SUCCEED JOSEPH KJPTG AS SU
PERINTENDENT OF POLICE
ALARMS
WAITING ON NEW SYSTEM
Republican Aldermen Will Bold a
Caucus as Soon a» the Blatter of
Purchasing W 4VeW Police Tele
graph Eaulpment *"• Determined
by the Council— Albreeht Talked
of for Mayor.
Sheldon Blakeley is making an effort to
have Supt. King, of the police alarm tele
graph, ousted and the job given to Supt.
King does not stand' very well with the
members of the council, who have the se
lection of the superintendent, and there
Is a possibility that a caucus will be held
In the near future and the matter dis
cussed.
The question of the purchasing of a new
police alarm system is still in the air,
although the members who have been
pulling for the purchase of the Auto-
Electrio system claim they will have the
necessary number of votes In both bodies
to award the contract to this company.
It Is said that there will be no change
In the superintendent until the question
of purchasing a new system has been
settled. Aid. Kenny, of the Third ward,
is very outspoken aa to the spending of
$16,000 for a new police alarm system.
He takes the ground that if the city can
not secure sufficient money to keep the
schools going It would be false economy

For Flen==Annual Sale
of Shirts, Collars and Cuffs.
It may be well to tell you again how we are able to sell Shirts, Collars
and Cuffs at such low prices during our January Sale.
We place large orders in midsummer when there's little work in the fac
tory, and the makers keep their hands busy at times when there Is no other
work. Of course we get advantages In price.
And then we shave the profit to the lowest possible margin in order to
make things lively In the ordinarily dull month of January.
And you get most of the two profits— the manufacturers' and ours.
The "Wellington" Shirt — made of best Muslin and Irish Linen, made In
the best manner and faultlessly laundered — as good a Shirt as £1 £\
