AKG ED TO-DAY. \ :. .. , The Great Murder Case Almost Ready for the Jury. \l ..^"; The case of Timothy Barrett for the murder of Thomas Tollefson, which has been on trial for the past two weeks, will be given to the jury to-day. County Attorney Davis will sum up the ease for the prosecution, ami will be followed by that noted criminal lawyer. William Erwln; who will sum up the case for the defense. It is generally supposed that the entire day will be taken up by the counsel; and that the jury will not be charged by the court before evening. There has been considerable surprise evinced that the prosecution has not used as a witness the man who first discovered that Tollefson had been murdered, and who stopped the ear on which the murdered driver was lying. This case has attracted a great deal of attention, on account of the principal witness for the prosecution and the or.lv witness who has con- nected Timothy Barrett with the mur- der, being his own brother. "REDDY'S" NERVE. He Declares AVar Upon Newspaper Reporters and Editors. There have been some peculiar occur- rences in connection with the Tollefson murder ease, but nooe more remarkable than an episode which transpired at the Mar-News Saturday afternoon. It will be remembered that Henry Barrett ad milted to being an accomplice with his brother in the murder, and that it was asserted by Attorney Erwin that the landlord of the Clifton house at Waco- ilia discovered Levi Gorman, an ex-po- liceman who had been sent there in the capacity of a deputy sheriff in bed with Chloe Betts. Henry Bar- rett's sister-in-law, and had fired the entire party out of his house. The Star- News, in common with the other papers, noted these points in the testi- mony, It was probably a surprise party of liberal proportions to the Star-News people about 5 o'clock when Messrs. Barrett and Gorman entered with the appearance of lofty indignation and In- quired for the editor in a way that in- dicated decisively that they wanted to see him. City Editor Jones, who is so small that his feet don't touch the floor when he sits at his desk, indicated mildly that he was in charge of the office editorial "we" at the time. Gorman,who is about seven feet tall, glared down at the little man of letters and growled out: "I want you to retract what your newspaper said about my being found in bed with Chloe Betts, and registering my name as Johnson. At this "ReddV' Barrett rushed forward and. pounding on the desk, yelled, "Yes, and I'm going to smash your head for what you have said about me.'' Mr. Jones gently slid out of the door and took refuge in Editor-in-Chief Shaw's room. Here an animated debate took place when "Reddy" announced his amiable inten- tion of punching Mr. Shaw's head. That individual, however, can make a pretty good bluff himself and did not back down. By this time some of the other members* of the staff came forward and Barrett calmed down. It need not be conjectured that the Star-News will not make any retraction. The paper's representative who reported the case was absent at the time, when informed of the particulars of the impending fracas was exceedingly warm, and said last night : "Just think of it! Here's a self-confessed murderer allowed to wander around the streets and threaten reporters for printing the evidence he gave on the witness stand. I admire his nerve." A TOUCHING FAREWELL. Delivered to His Flock by Rev. F. O. Hoi man. The services that were held last night in the Foss M. E. church, on the North side, were of an interesting character an account of their being the last over which Rev. F. O. Holman presided, prior to his going to St. Paul to take the pulpit made vacant by Rev. Mr. Smith m that city. At the conclusion of the usual evening service a large number of adults were received into the church by the solemn act of. baptism, Mr. Holman making some very beautiful and appro- priate remark in each case. This was followed by the communion service, nearly every one in the large congrega- tion partaking of the holy sacrament of our Lord; It was then that Mr. Holman bade adieu to his old flock. Substan- tially he said as follows: "1 do not in- tend to preach any ornate, lenghty fare- well sermon to-night, but, my people, I cannot let this night pass .without bid- ding you good bye; without saying one last word to you, my congrega- tion, that I love so much. 'Men may come and men may go,' but God with you ever, notwithstanding the changes that occur in our existence. "Walk, therefore, in His path, look al- ways unto righteousness. I have noth- iug much of a personal nature to say to- night; instead. 1 had you come unto the Lord's table that. I might have a last chance to administer the sacrament to you. my flock. 1 must thank you for all the loving kindness, sweet charity and ondeviathtg goodness you have vouchsafed to me during my pastorate. I came among you when 1 was not wanted, when it was a sore disappointment to you all that I came to be your minis- ter, yet form the fust you loyally stood by me, your appointed parson, and never sverved once. For this 1 have to thank you. There is not enough credit given to the officiary of the churches. 1 want to say right here that if I preach till my hairs are white, 1 shall never expect to meet a more steadfast, up- right, loyal set of officials than the gen- tlemen who have charge and the re- sponsibilities of this church to bear. You can put your qrust in them implicitly for they are noble and conscientious in their work. My peo- i pie, 1 love you, and go from you simply because I feel that I am called by God on high and must follow Him in all the promptings ot my heart. I love you, my people, 1 got to love you in the two years I have been with you, years that were glad and yean that were sad. In bidding you good-bye I commend you to the care of Jesus, our Savior; place your trust in Him and He will save you from all harm— farewell." A NEW YEAR'S SERMON. The Sun a Divine Gospel to the "World. H. M. Simmons preached at the First Unitarian church on "The Year," and traced its history in detail. He showed how men began measuring time by the moon and its months; how. the months came to have the names and the number of days which they do; how the. orderly year hxed by Julius Csesar was deranged by the vanity ot Augustus, and his month of August made to 'bring disor- der into February; how the year was finally brought to its present degree of perfection by the Gregorian calendar. .. He. said it was well f«r those -who charge . the Catholics with jjndis. position', to . re- .form, to"remember.-. that this -excellent reform came from them and was led by a pope, and was long resisted by Protes- tants because it came from a pope. He gave Lord Chesterfield's amusing ac- count of his carrying the calendar bill through the house of lords by mere rhetoric and oratory, without even un- derstanding it himself. He said perhaps preachers to-day some- times understand the theology they are presenting no more than Chester- field did his astronomy, and sometimes secure its adoption by the same means. He said even the Georgian calendar is not yet pertect, but makes the year nearly twenty seconds too long, and the heavens move on regardless of popes as they were of Ca>sars. He said this diffi- culty in perfecting the calendar ought to make us more charitable toward the shortcomings of creeds, which soon get far more astray than the almanac, and need frequent reforms. But the calendar and the still truer year behind it. teaches a better creed than any of the old ones. It silently persuades men to say : "1 believe that the universe is true, anil that its laws and Lord are forever faithful." The- ology used to teach that the sun once stopped in the sky to help a Hebrew battle. But astronomy proclaims a far firmer and better faith, when it asserts that the sun never did any such thing, and that the earth always comes around from its journey of so many hundred miles true to the traction of a second. This fidelity of the heavenly movements gives ground for far more faith than any of Joshua's so-called miracles. A sun like that of the old story— stopping, deceiving man- kind, sending sailors astray, deranging the day and upsetting all astronomy- would be the proclamation in the heavens that our trust in order is all illusion, and law all a lie. Such a mock- ing miracle, and only to lengthen a miserable battle, would be the denial of divine government, and fatal to faith. But our sun, arriving at the solstice at the exact second, and ris- ing each New Year's morning at the exact point, becomes a perpetuai sign of eternal order, a per- petual miracle giving faith that, the world and its God can be forever trusted. It helps to teach also that all religions are subject to the same laws, and all men children of the same father: and so forbids such massacres as that which disgraced Gregory's day, and bids us dissolve the old religious bitterness in brotherhood. Even the sun returning so faithfully to-day to warm the world for another season, is a divine gospel for all to read: and even the almanac with itsiessonsof impartial order and beneficent law. teaches a truer religion and a better God than our fathers told. RELIGION AND SCIENCE. Rev. M. D. Shutter's Sermon at Church ol'the Redeemer. Rev. Marion D. Shutter preached an interesting sermon last evening, ex- plaining the obligations that religion is under to science. He said: Many religious people have de- nounced scientific investigation as hos- tile to Christianity. They have feared that the world's recent advances in physical knowledge might be destruc- tive of reverence and faith, might even overthrow man's belief in God and in the human soul. Asa matter of fact our most prominent scientific men have not been believers in the current creeds of Christ- endom, and would not have been sorry to see them overthrown. On the other hand. Christian people have assumed a scientific infallibility in the Bible. The Bible is no authority in science. Its in- cidental expressions must be taken as the notions of the time in which they were written. We may discard them without impairing the value of the book as a religious force, as a moral and spir- itual guide. There can be no real con- flict between truth in one department of thought and life and truth in any other department. Truth is one. Who- ever finds out any new thing is uncov- ering the footprints of the eternal. There is no conflict between science and religion. Science has done niu h forreligion. The soul of science, which is free thought, investigation, demand for proof, has done something to tone up theology and make its devotees more dilig nt in their search for evidence. Ordinarily there is noth- ing a theologian so much dislikes as to be obliged to prove something. 11 is time-honored formula is, "This is Hod's truth! Your controversy is not with me, it is with God. You must believe this or be damned! 1 ' Nothing is quite so revolting to the sincere inquiring mind as to be met in this fashion. Science has enlarged our conceptions of the universe and thus has enlarged our conception of God. It has also given us a spiritual idea of the universe and of man. The bugbear with religious peo- ple has always been tlmt science was materialistic: that it tried to account for everything without a God; that it de- nied the existence of a soul in man. But whatever else science may have done,or failed to do, surely in its 'later develop- ments, if it has demonstrated anything, it is the utter failure of materialism to account for this universe. Science has also cleared away many of these super- stitions of religion. It destroyed the terrible belief in witchcraft which blot- ted so many Christian centuries. It is banishing the belief in a devil and evil spirits It is banishing the cloud of many horrible fancies that gather about the tomb. It has relieved the soul from | a host of fears, and scattered many of ! the dark shadows that rested on the human mind. The spiritual as well as the intellectual life is quickened. God is greater than we know. Our feelings of awe and reverence are intensified. We can claim with clearer understand- ing than did the psalmist, "Great and marvelous are Thy works, O Lord, God Almighty! In wisdom hast Thou made them all." Our faith is enlarged and strengthened. The more we find out of God and His ways, the more we are im- pressed with the idea that there is vastly more we do not know, but the seen enables us to trust Him for that which is not seen, As Whittier sings: "Idimly guess from blessings known Of greater out of sight." We see, too, that the world and man long regarded alien from God, and ut- terly evil, "is God's world after all." His kingdom is not something apart from this world for a handful of elect saints, but the natural product, the con- summate flower of this world's growth in civilization, and in all goodness and and justice and love and truth. THE PAST AND FUTURE. An Interesting New Year's Ser- mon by Rev. G. L. Morrill. Following is the sermon preached by Rev. G. L. Morrill at tiie Calvary Bap- tist church yesterday morning: The last night of '87 met the morning of '88 with a kiss. Coffin and cradle stand side by side, but the tolling bell for the old year has given place to the clang and clash of the new. Time, space and God are a trinity of wonders, but man's physical, mental and spirit- ual nature is adapted to them, and hope looks forward assured of a future that awaits us, while recollection of the past warns us that the past and future are one. The last year brought joy to some, grief to others and experience to all, and those who complain have only to separate their lives into elements to learn their evil and God's goodness in mercies new every hour. "The soul's dark cottage, battered and decayed, lets in new light through chinks that time has made." George Macdonald uttered a profound truth when he said "the man or woman who can say. 'Thy will be done,' is nearer the secret of things than the geologist and theologian." Happiness is the harmonious adjust- ment of life, and not until we come to mother through our senses, to truth through our mind and to God through our soul will we do other than grind out an existence of shift and shame, dis- gust and disappointment. We climb life'srugged way guided by what other hands, heads and hearts have done. Phis year's problem is not to be v repetition of the past, but an advance for God, self and hu- manity, brought about by the sacri- fice of our pride, pleasure and passion. Jesus Christ in the philosophy of events and logic of a progress which has widened and deepened man's power and happiness. To build character, society, church or government upon any other than Christian foundation is to organize crime and invite murderous despair. "Time shall unfold what plighted cun- ning hides." The lire of infinite retri- bution is to prove each man's work, whether it be gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay or stubble. Life is not worth the living or haying in which the love of God is wanting. Time is the life of the soul. The present is only a segment of a future infinite circle, and not to spend our strength in prayer, faith and work, that wo may be rich toward God and man, is to live a life whoso repeated yesterdays only light fools the way to dusty death. King out old shapes of foul disease. King out (he narrowing lust of gold, Ring out the thousand war* of old, King in the thousand years of peace. . '1 he future is dark, but God has prom- ised to guide us. Furl the sails. What- ever storms or dangers rise, may the days to come be better than those just gone, and we be permitted at last to drop anchor in the safe harbor of eter- nal rest. THE DANZ CONCERT. A Zoch Piano Feature— The Or- chestral Work. The principal feature at the Dan/. Orchestral concert yesterday afternoon in Harmonia hall, was the piano play- ing of Prof. 11. E. Zoch. This well- known teacher is equally celebrated as a violinist, having a remarkable control, splendid technique and a power of in- terpretation very remarkable in these legions. His first selection, a musical morsel, after Nienian Jensen, entitled "Memorando,"w as a delicious trifle to be fondly remembered as something most tuneful to the ear, full of sweet melodies and c including in a tender subdued strain. In his second selection he was given an opportunity to show his mastery in performing .a piece abounding in tones ranging over a wide and varied field of harmony. In "Ca- chucha Caprice," by Raff, he showed remarkable strength and command in handling the higher prssages, while the trills and more tender numbers showed his splendid technique. Prof. Zoch was loudly encored again and again. The programme rendered by the band was up to their usual high standard and in- cluded the beautiful Norwegian raphso- die "Svendsen," one of Strauss' raptur- ous waltzes, "Vienna Blood." Dr. C. Stradhaur performed a 'cello solo, that was very favorably received, and, as usual, there is nothing to say more than praise for all the artists concerned. The next concert will be Sunday. Jan. 14, and the great attraction will be a solo on the violin by Frak Danz, the popular leader. THE PL.AY HOUSES. The Week Opened at People's and Pence— -Opera at the Grand. The usual Sunday night audience turned out at the People's theater last evening and filled every nook and cranny of the large building. Not an inch of available space went unoccu- pied, but the crowd was attentive: orderly and appreciative. The bill was "Two Orphans" and for a first night went exceedingly well. Mr. Bar- hour had the dual role of Jacques and Vaudry, and though he occasionally mingled them, the performance was a creditable one. The parts of Henrietta and Louise, and of Frouchard and Pierre, were especially well taken. The play will run all week, with the usual matinees. This afternoon, at the spe- cial matinee, the audience will be pho- tographed as they sit. There were two good houses at the Pence yesterday at the special New Year's performance. "Fanchon" was the bill, and the audience was entirely satisfied. At the special matinee to-day "Fogg's Ferry" will be the play. The bill throughout the week will be changed continually, "Lorle, or the Artist's Dream," following next. That superb organization, the Con- ried Opera company, open their long- looked for engagement at the Grand opera this afternoon with a matinee,and will continue the engagement for the week. The opera presented will be that popular opera comique, "The Gypsy Baron," and it is promised to be given in a manner never before attempted with regard to cast and mise-en-scene. The chorus and accessories are said to be superb, and the double set of principals, Laura Bellini, Louise Bianchi, Helen Yon Doenhoff, Lydia O'Neill, Jennie Keif- forth. Ada Haynes, Harry De"Lonne, Sig. Taglieri, Fred Urban and Jacques Krutrer, will be seen during the week. That funniest of funny sketches, "A Pair of Kids," will be seen at. the Grand three nights next week, commencing Monday. . . A MASKED BAL.IJ. A Pleasant Social Event at Har- monia Hall Last Evening. The Scandinavian Pleasure club gave a pleasant masked ball at Harmonia hall last evening, which was fairly well at- tended. Some of the costume? were simply elegant, many were decidedly original, and all were good. One of the most striking, from a ludicrous stand- point, was "The Tramp," who acted well his part. There were prizes for the most elegant dress, for the most comical dress and for the most peculiar head- gear. It was early in the morning when the last dance was trod. ANTED, A SYSTEM By AVhich the Several Compila- tions Might Agree. Building Inspector Bauinan has com- piled his own building figures for 1887, and they are different from any yet compiled. His system is different, and, of course, yields a different result. Mr. Bauman figures that the actual cost of many buildings was double the estiina-. ted cost, so lie adds 100 per cent for the time the fee system was in force. This gives him the following result: Total of permits $6,493,019 Add 100 per cent for seven and \u25a0 one-half months.. 3,578,366 Add 25 per cent for four and one- - half months ' 728,688 Plumbing permits 235,000 Buildings commenced in 1886 -776,000 i West Minneapolis 250,000 Fridley ... 150,500 St. Louis Park 60,000 Stockyards 50,000 -Grand total .... $12,321,067 There should be some system of com- piling these annual statistics so that the results would not vary so widely. Outside readers of the local papers are amused at the discrepencies, and really end by placing confidence in none. Two papers yesterday made a spread in Min- neapolis statistics, and the difference was very laughable. In one the build- ing figures were $12,214,723 and in the other 89,311,372. Oue put the total job- bing trade at $150,460,937 and the other at $193,120,082. So it goes clear through the game. No wonder the world smiles. The Typographical Union. The meeting of the Minneapolis Typo- graphical union, at .the Elks' hall, yes- terday afternoon, was an important one, as well as very animated in many re- spects. It was reported to the union that some of the job offices and one newspaper office in the city were not being run according to union rules, and a special committee was appointed to investigate and report. A letter was read from C. H. Dußois, of the Saturday Spectator, in which he refused point blank to make his office a union one. A long discuss- ion followed, and in the end it was de- cided to declare the paper a "rat" sheet, and the men employed on it will be called out to-day. It is not expected that this move will cause any trouble. One of the papers which will be investi- gated by the special committee is the labor paper. . The Employes Speak. The employes of Washburne Crosby & Co., held a meeting with James Mc- Daniel, chairman, and John S. Dodge, secretary, and passed resolutions of re- i spect to the memory of the late Mr. Crosby, and resolved, "That while we deplore our.loss .we extend our sym- pathy to the surviving members of the firm a^ul assure them of our confident belief that the excellent management of the past wiil be tontinued In the fu- ture.-' MINNEAPOLIS GLOBULES.

When he awak- ened yesterday he found his socks filled with chloride of lime. Just at present the lady is ahead. ... .'.'••.: BLIND MEN HOLD A REVEL.. Sight less Human Beings and Their Jolly Club I Ate. From the New York Telegram. ''When that man there is sober a little boy leads him; when he is drunk he is Independent and walks alone." •So said a Third avenue policeman to a Telegram reporter. "By that I suppose he is blind," re- marked the reporter. "Blind as a bat." "Is he a beggar?" "Not by a long shot. He earns his living and never gives us a bit of trouble. Like to know him?" "Certainly." "I'll introduce you. ITe's probably goin' to a meet in', and I'll git him to take you along." At the call of the policeman the blind man stopped and walked back. There was pathos unspeakable In his reckless advance. As he drew nearer the re- porter recognized him. He had often seen him walking the street timorously trusting to his boy guide, while he cried out: "Brooms! Here's your good brooms cheap!" "Loaded again, John?" observed the policeman. "Not yet," and John- smiled and smacked his lips, as if in anticipation of good things to come. "Then you are goin' to a meetin'?" "This is the night we boys meet around the festal board." "1 have a friend here that would like to go with you," and the policeman in- troduced John and the reporter. "Very pleased to know you. sir," he said. "The boys are always glad to see a friend of the cop. Eh, old fellow?" and he grasped the policeman's arm af- fectionately. As he seemed impatient to be off, the reporter slipped John's arm through his. John promptly withdrew it. "No," he said; "you take my arm. I am escort on this occasion." He conducted the reporter up the avenue, and above Twenty-third street turned toward the East river. Before a three-story house he paused and opened the door with a latch key. doing in, he led the reporter to the third story, where he entered a room without knocking. Inside there were half a dozen men seated at a table, smoking or drinking from mugs of beer. No one tinned his face when John and the re- porter came in. "It is John," said one, and in chorus they all said: "How are you, John?" They knew John had not come alone, but they waited for him to announce the visitor. "1 have a friend with me— a gentle- man," he said. They rose to their feet. "Is he afflicted?" they asked in a voice. They meant blind. "He is not," replied John. "Does he come to mock?" "He does not." "Then we drink his health." Thus was the reporter made welcome at the table round. When the guest was seated a mug of beer was placed in front of him. John was also helped, and everybody drank. John started a bacchanalian song, and the others joined in with the vigor of debauchees. The reporter sang, too. but made a wretched discord, which they hospitably overlooked. "Friend from the light of day, tell us children of the night news," said one. "Astory," said John, "is what they want, about those who can see.". The reporter complied, and was grat- ified that he pleased his auditors. "Empty is the growler," exclaimed the blind man who officiated as waiter. "The dice," cried John. A cup and dice were set on the table. "The lowest number pays for the drinks," he cried. "Our guest will tell us what the throws amount to and save the time taken up by feeling the dice." That speech presented a picture to the reporter, who had consented to act as tally clerk. As he watched the cast of the dice and made his record he imagined these blind men throw- ing for drinks and then carefully feel- ing the holes in the dice to learn hew much they had scored. "It is on John," said the reporter, when the dice box had gone the rounds. "Ha, ha!" the merry men laughed in chorus. . "John pays for the drinks. Ha", ha!" ( John rapped on the table with his mug, and a little girl appeared. John threw a dollar on the table . and sang rather than said : "Fill up the growler, Meg, Meg, fill it full." The others took it up, and while they chanted the words the reporter looked around the club room. It was bare of furniture, save the table and chairs, and had no wndow that looked out into street or yard. It was what is known as a dark inner room, and rented cheap. Meg came back quickly and the mugs were refilled, then emptied and filled again. "A story from the dominie is in or- der," said John, and all grew quiet while a sad-voiced man rose to his feet. "I'lltell you a story— a short one— about a little girl. Last summer, one day, a bare-footed girl who had been crying stopped me and asked: 'Blind man. do you ever stump your toes?' "She had hurt her toe 'by striking it against a stone. 'Yes, so often that there is no feeling in them,' I said." . \u25a0 ""Iwish I had been blind and got over it,' she said. " 'So do I wish I could get over it,' I replied." "So do we all," exclaimed the chorus as the dominie sat down. So passed the night. There was sing- ing, story telling, dice throwing and frequent reappearances of Meg. As the morn approached one after another of the blind fell asleep with his head on the table, and the reporter slipped out, leaving them to their dreams. m ABlack Snake Chokes an Owl. Palatka, (Fla.) News. Hon. A. L. Barker, of Lochloosa, in this county a few days ago saw a large horned owl strike as if for prey in a marsh near the road along which he was riding." As the bird did not rise immediately, Mr. Barker con- cluded it had caught something too heavy for it to rise, and walked over to see. On reaching the spot the owl was seen struggling with extended wings on the ground nearly dead. Mr. Barker killed him with a blow of his whip- stock, and then saw that a black snake was- twisted around his neck and had already choked the bird nearly to death. The owl had caught the snake * near the head and pierced it with his great hooked talons. Evidently the snake had thrown the rest of its body around the bird's neck in a deadly embrace, and but for Mr. Barker's intervention would have quickly killed it. So fierce was the snake that it paid no heed to the death of its enemy, and Mr. Barker killed both and then carried the two, still locked together, to his home, where they were seen by many. -^m- LOCAL MEtfTIOIV.

There has been considerablesurprise evinced that the prosecutionhas not used as a witness the man whofirst discovered that Tollefson hadbeen murdered, and who stopped theear on which the murdered driver waslying. This case has attracted a greatdeal of attention, on account of theprincipal witness for the prosecutionand the or.lv witness who has con-nected Timothy Barrett with the mur-der, being his own brother.

"REDDY'S" NERVE.

He Declares AVarUpon NewspaperReporters and Editors.

There have been some peculiar occur-rences in connection with the Tollefsonmurder ease, but nooe more remarkablethan an episode which transpired at theMar-News Saturday afternoon. Itwillbe remembered that Henry Barrett admilted to being an accomplice with hisbrother in the murder, and that it wasasserted by Attorney Erwin that thelandlord of the Clifton house at Waco-ilia discovered Levi Gorman, an ex-po-liceman who had been sent therein the capacity of a deputy sheriffin bed with Chloe Betts. Henry Bar-rett's sister-in-law, and had fired theentire party out ofhis house. The Star-News, in common with the otherpapers, noted these points in the testi-mony, It was probably a surprise partyof liberal proportions to the Star-Newspeople about 5 o'clock when Messrs.Barrett and Gorman entered with theappearance of lofty indignation and In-quired forthe editor in a way that in-dicated decisively that they wanted tosee him. City Editor Jones, who is sosmall that his feet don't touch the floorwhen he sits at his desk, indicatedmildly that he was in chargeof the office editorial "we"at the time. Gorman,who is about sevenfeet tall, glared down at the little manof letters and growled out: "I wantyou to retract what yournewspaper saidabout my being found in bed with ChloeBetts, and registering my name asJohnson. At this "ReddV' Barrettrushed forward and. pounding on thedesk, yelled, "Yes, and I'm going tosmash your head for what you havesaid about me.'' Mr. Jones gentlyslid out ofthe door and took refuge inEditor-in-Chief Shaw's room. Here ananimated debate took place when"Reddy" announced his amiable inten-tion of punching Mr. Shaw's head. Thatindividual, however, can make a prettygood bluff himself and did not backdown. By this time some of the othermembers* of the staff came forwardand Barrett calmed down. It need notbe conjectured that the Star-News willnot make any retraction. The paper'srepresentative who reported the casewas absent at the time, when informedof the particulars of the impendingfracas was exceedingly warm, and saidlast night : "Just think of it! Here's aself-confessed murderer allowed towander around the streets and threatenreporters for printing the evidence hegave on the witness stand. I admire hisnerve."

A TOUCHING FAREWELL.

Delivered to His Flock by Rev.F. O. Hoiman.

The services that were held last nightin the Foss M. E. church, on the Northside, were of an interesting characteran account of their being the last overwhich Rev. F. O. Holman presided,prior to his going to St. Paul to take thepulpit made vacant by Rev. Mr. Smithm that city. At the conclusion of theusual evening service a large number ofadults were received into the church bythe solemn act of. baptism, Mr. Holmanmaking some very beautiful and appro-priate remark in each case. This wasfollowed by the communion service,nearly every one in the large congrega-tion partaking of the holy sacrament ofour Lord; It was then that Mr. Holmanbade adieu to his old flock. Substan-tially he said as follows: "1 do not in-tend to preach any ornate, lenghty fare-well sermon to-night, but, my people, Icannot let this night pass .without bid-ding you good bye; without saying onelast word to you, my congrega-tion, that I love so much. 'Menmay come and men may go,' butGod with you ever, notwithstandingthe changes that occur in our existence."Walk, therefore, in His path, look al-ways unto righteousness. Ihave noth-iug much of a personal nature to say to-night; instead. 1 had you come unto theLord's table that. I might have a lastchance to administer the sacrament toyou. my flock. 1 must thank you forall the loving kindness, sweet charityand ondeviathtg • goodness you havevouchsafed to me during my pastorate. Icame among you when 1 was not wanted,when it was a sore disappointmentto you all that Icame to be your minis-ter, yet form the fust you loyally stoodby me, your appointed parson, andnever sverved once. For this 1 have tothank you. There is not enough creditgiven to the officiary of the churches. 1want to say right here that if I preachtill my hairs are white, 1 shall neverexpect to meet a more steadfast, up-right, loyal set of officials than the gen-tlemen who have charge and the re-sponsibilities of this church tobear. You can put your qrust inthem implicitly for they are noble andconscientious in their work. My peo- ipie, 1 love you, and go from you simplybecause I feel that I am called by Godon high and must followHim in all thepromptings ot my heart. I love you,my people, 1 got to love you in the twoyears Ihave been with you, years thatwere glad and yean that were sad. Inbidding you good-bye Icommend you tothe care of Jesus, our Savior; placeyour trust in Him and He will save youfrom all harm— farewell."

A NEW YEAR'S SERMON.

The Sun a Divine Gospel to the"World.

H. M. Simmons preached at the FirstUnitarian church on "The Year," andtraced its history in detail. He showedhow men began measuring time by themoon and its months; how. the monthscame to have the names and the numberof days which they do; how the. orderlyyear hxed by Julius Csesar was derangedby the vanity ot Augustus, and hismonth of August made to 'bring disor-der into February; how the year wasfinally brought to its present degree ofperfection by the Gregorian calendar... He. said it was well f«r those -who charge. the Catholics with jjndis.position', to . re-.form, to"remember.-. that this -excellent

reform came from them and was led bya pope, and was long resisted by Protes-tants because it came from a pope. Hegave Lord Chesterfield's amusing ac-count of his carrying the calendar billthrough the house of lords by mererhetoric and oratory, without even un-derstanding it himself. He saidperhaps preachers to-day some-times understand the theology theyare presenting no more than Chester-field did his astronomy, and sometimessecure its adoption by the same means.He said even the Georgian calendar isnot yet pertect, but makes the yearnearly twenty seconds too long, and theheavens move on regardless of popes asthey were of Ca>sars. He said this diffi-culty inperfecting the calendar oughtto make us more charitable toward theshortcomings of creeds, which soon getfar more astray than the almanac, andneed frequent reforms.

But the calendar and the still trueryear behind it. teaches a better creedthan any of the old ones. It silentlypersuades men to say : "1 believe thatthe universe is true, anil that its lawsand Lord are forever faithful." The-ology used to teach that the sun oncestopped in the sky to help a Hebrewbattle. But astronomy proclaims a farfirmer and better faith, when it assertsthat the sun never did anysuch thing, and that theearth always comes around from itsjourney of so many hundred miles trueto the traction of a second. This fidelityofthe heavenly movements gives groundfor far more faith than any of Joshua'sso-called miracles. A sun like that ofthe old story— stopping, deceiving man-kind, sending sailors astray, derangingthe day and upsetting all astronomy-would be the proclamation in theheavens that our trust in order is allillusion, and law all a lie. Such a mock-ing miracle, and only to lengthen amiserable battle, would be the denial ofdivine government, and fatal to faith.But our sun, arriving at the solstice atthe exact second, and ris-ing each New Year's morningat the exact point, becomesa perpetuai sign of eternal order, a per-petual miracle giving faith that, theworld and its God can be forevertrusted. It helps to teach also that allreligions are subject to the same laws,and all men children of the samefather: and so forbids such massacresas that which disgraced Gregory's day,and bids us dissolve the old religiousbitterness in brotherhood. Even thesun returning so faithfully to-day towarm the world for another season, is adivine gospel for all to read: and eventhe almanac with itsiessonsof impartialorder and beneficent law. teaches atruer religion and a better God than ourfathers told.

RELIGION AND SCIENCE.

Rev. M. D. Shutter's Sermon at

Church ol'the Redeemer.Rev. Marion D. Shutter preached an

interesting sermon last evening, ex-plaining the obligations that religion isunder to science. He said:

Many religious people have de-nounced scientific investigation as hos-tile to Christianity. They have fearedthat the world's recent advances inphysical knowledge might be destruc-tive of reverence and faith, might evenoverthrow man's belief in God and in thehuman soul. Asa matter of fact our mostprominent scientific men have not beenbelievers in the current creeds of Christ-endom, and would not have been sorryto see them overthrown. On the otherhand. Christian people have assumed ascientific infallibility in the Bible. TheBible is no authority in science. Its in-cidental expressions must be taken asthe notions of the time in which theywere written. We may discard themwithout impairing the value of the bookas a religious force, as a moral and spir-itual guide. There can be no real con-flictbetween truth in one departmentof thought and life and truth in anyother department. Truth is one. Who-ever finds out any new thing is uncov-ering the footprints of the eternal.There is no conflict between scienceand religion. Science has done niu hforreligion. The soul of science, whichis free thought, investigation, demandfor proof, has done something to toneup theology and make its devotees moredilig nt in their search forevidence. Ordinarily there is noth-ing a theologian so much dislikes asto be obliged to prove something. 1 1istime-honored formula is, "This is Hod'struth! Your controversy is not withme, it is with God. You must believethis or be damned! 1 ' Nothing is quiteso revolting to the sincere inquiringmind as to be met in this fashion.Science has enlarged our conceptions ofthe universe and thus has enlarged ourconception of God. It has also given usa spiritual idea ofthe universe and ofman. The bugbear with religious peo-ple has always been tlmt science wasmaterialistic: that it tried to account foreverything without a God; that it de-nied the existence of a soul in man. Butwhatever else science may have done,orfailed to do, surely in its 'later develop-ments, if it has demonstrated anything,it is the utter failure of materialism toaccount for this universe. Science hasalso cleared away many of these super-stitions of religion. It destroyed theterrible belief in witchcraft which blot-ted so many Christian centuries. It isbanishing the belief in a devil and evilspirits It is banishing the cloud ofmany horrible fancies that gather aboutthe tomb. Ithas relieved the soul from |a host of fears, and scattered many of !the dark shadows that rested on thehuman mind. The spiritual as well asthe intellectual life is quickened. Godis greater than we know. Our feelingsof awe and reverence are intensified.We can claim with clearer understand-ing than did the psalmist, "Great andmarvelous are Thy works, O Lord, GodAlmighty! In wisdom hast Thou madethem all." Our faith is enlarged andstrengthened. The more we find out ofGod and His ways, the more we are im-pressed with the idea that there isvastly more we do not know, but theseen enables us to trust Him for thatwhich is not seen, As Whittier sings:

"Idimly guess from blessings knownOf greater out of sight."

We see, too, that the world and manlong regarded alien from God, and ut-terly evil, "is God's world after all."His kingdom is not something apartfrom this world for a handful of electsaints, but the natural product, the con-summate flower of this world's growthin civilization, and in all goodness andand justice and love and truth.

THE PAST AND FUTURE.

An Interesting New Year's Ser-mon by Rev. G. L. Morrill.

Following is the sermon preached byRev. G. L. Morrillat tiie Calvary Bap-tist church yesterday morning:

The last night of '87 met the morningof '88 with a kiss. Coffin and cradlestand side by side, but the tolling bellfor the old year has given place to theclang and clash of the new. Time,space and God are a trinity of wonders,but man's physical, mental and spirit-ual nature is adapted to them, and hopelooks forward assured of a future thatawaits us, while recollection of the pastwarns us that the past and future are one.

The last year brought joy to some,grief to others and experience to all,and those who complain have only toseparate their lives into elements tolearn their evil and God's goodness inmercies new every hour.

"The soul's dark cottage, battered anddecayed, lets in new light throughchinks that time has made."

George Macdonald uttered a profoundtruth when he said "the man or womanwho can say. 'Thy will be done,' isnearer the secret of things than thegeologist and theologian."

Happiness is the harmonious adjust-ment of life, and not until we come tomother through our senses, to truththrough our mind and to God throughour soul will we do other than grind outan existence of shift and shame, dis-gust and disappointment.

We climb life'srugged way guided bywhat other hands, heads and heartshave done. Phis year's problem is notto be v repetition of the past, but anadvance for God, self and hu-manity, brought about by the sacri-fice of our pride, pleasure and passion.Jesus Christ in the philosophy ofeventsand logic of a progress which haswidened and deepened man's power andhappiness. To build character, society,church or government upon any other

than Christian foundation is to organizecrime and invite murderous despair."Time shall unfold what plighted cun-ning hides." The lire of infinite retri-bution is to prove each man's work,whether it be gold, silver, preciousstones, wood, hay or stubble. Life isnot worth the living or haying in whichthe love of God is wanting. Time isthe lifeofthe soul. The present is onlya segment of a future infinite circle,and not to spend our strength in prayer,faith and work, that wo may be richtoward God and man, is to live a lifewhoso repeated yesterdays only lightfools the way to dusty death.

King out old shapes of foul disease.King out (he narrowing lust of gold,Ring out the thousand war* of old,

King in the thousand years of peace. .'1 he future is dark, but God has prom-

ised to guide us. Furl the sails. What-ever storms or dangers rise, may thedays to come be better than those justgone, and we be permitted at last todrop anchor in the safe harbor ofeter-nal rest.

THE DANZ CONCERT.A Zoch Piano Feature— The Or-

chestral Work.The principal feature at the Dan/.

Orchestral concert yesterday afternoonin Harmonia hall, was the piano play-ing of Prof. 11. E. Zoch. This well-known teacher is equally celebrated asa violinist, having a remarkable control,splendid technique and a power of in-terpretation very remarkable in theselegions. His first selection, a musicalmorsel, after Nienian Jensen, entitled"Memorando,"w as a delicious trifletobefondly remembered as something mosttuneful to the ear, full of sweetmelodies and c including in a tendersubdued strain. In his second selectionhe was given an opportunity to showhis mastery in performing .a pieceabounding in tones ranging over a wideand varied field of harmony. In "Ca-chucha Caprice," by Raff, he showedremarkable strength and command inhandling the higher prssages, while thetrills and more tender numbers showedhis splendid technique. Prof. Zoch wasloudly encored again and again. Theprogramme rendered by the band wasup to their usual high standard and in-cluded the beautiful Norwegian raphso-die "Svendsen," one of Strauss' raptur-ous waltzes, "Vienna Blood." Dr. C.Stradhaur performed a 'cello solo, thatwas very favorably received, and, asusual, there is nothing to say more thanpraise for all the artists concerned. Thenext concert will be Sunday. Jan. 14,and the great attraction will be a soloon the violin by Frak Danz, the popularleader.

THE PL.AY HOUSES.

The Week Opened at People's andPence— -Opera at the Grand.

The usual Sunday night audienceturned out at the People's theater lastevening and filled every nook andcranny of the large building. Not aninch of available space went unoccu-pied, but the crowd was attentive:orderly and appreciative. The billwas "Two Orphans" and for a firstnight went exceedingly well. Mr. Bar-hour had the dual role of Jacques andVaudry, and though he occasionallymingled them, the performance was acreditable one. The parts of Henriettaand Louise, and of Frouchard andPierre, were especially well taken. Theplay willrun all week, with the usualmatinees. This afternoon, at the spe-cial matinee, the audience willbe pho-tographed as they sit.

There were two good houses at thePence yesterday at the special NewYear's performance. "Fanchon" wasthe bill, and the audience was entirelysatisfied. At the special matinee to-day"Fogg's Ferry" willbe the play. Thebill throughout the week will bechanged continually, "Lorle, or theArtist's Dream," followingnext.

That superb organization, the Con-ried Opera company, open their long-looked for engagement at the Grandopera this afternoon with a matinee,andwill continue the engagement for theweek. The opera presented will bethat popular opera comique, "TheGypsy Baron," and it is promisedto be given in a manner neverbefore attempted with regard to castand mise-en-scene. The chorus andaccessories are said to be superb, andthe double set of principals, LauraBellini, Louise Bianchi, Helen YonDoenhoff, Lydia O'Neill, Jennie Keif-forth. Ada Haynes, Harry De"Lonne,Sig. Taglieri, Fred Urban and JacquesKrutrer, willbe seen during the week.

That funniest of funny sketches, "APair ofKids," will be seen at. the Grandthree nights next week, commencingMonday. . .

A MASKED BAL.IJ.

A Pleasant Social Event at Har-monia Hall Last Evening.

The Scandinavian Pleasure club gavea pleasant masked ball at Harmonia halllast evening, which was fairly well at-tended. Some of the costume? weresimply elegant, many were decidedlyoriginal, and all were good. One of themost striking, from a ludicrous stand-point, was "The Tramp," who actedwell his part. There were prizes for themost elegant dress, for the most comicaldress and for the most peculiar head-gear. Itwas early in the morning whenthe last dance was trod.

ANTED, A SYSTEM

By AVhich the Several Compila-tions Might Agree.

Building Inspector Bauinan has com-piled his own building figures for 1887,and they are different from any yetcompiled. His system is different, and,ofcourse, yields a different result. Mr.

Bauman figures that the actual cost ofmany buildings was double the estiina-.ted cost, so lie adds 100 per cent for thetime the fee system was in force. Thisgives him the following result:Total of permits $6,493,019Add 100 per cent for seven and \u25a0

one-half months.. 3,578,366Add 25 per cent for four and one- •- half months ' 728,688Plumbing permits 235,000Buildings commenced in 1886 -776,000 iWest Minneapolis 250,000Fridley ... 150,500St. Louis Park 60,000Stockyards 50,000

-Grand total .... $12,321,067There should be some system of com-

piling these annual statistics so thatthe results would not vary so widely.Outside readers of the local papers areamused at the discrepencies, and reallyend by placing confidence in none. Twopapers yesterday made a spread in Min-neapolis statistics, and the differencewas very laughable. In one the build-ing figures were $12,214,723 and in theother 89,311,372. Oue put the total job-bing trade at $150,460,937 and the otherat $193,120,082. So it goes clear throughthe game. No wonder the world smiles.

The Typographical Union.The meeting of the Minneapolis Typo-

graphical union, at .the Elks' hall, yes-terday afternoon, was an important one,as well as very animated in many re-spects. Itwas reported to the unionthat some of the job offices and onenewspaper office in the city were notbeing run according to unionrules, and a special committeewas appointed to investigate andreport. A letter was read from C. H.Dußois, of the Saturday Spectator, inwhich he refused point blank to makehis office a union one. A long discuss-ion followed, and in the end it was de-cided to declare the paper a "rat"sheet, and the men employed on it willbe called out to-day. It is not expectedthat this move will cause any trouble.One of the papers which willbe investi-gated by the special committee is thelabor paper. .

The Employes Speak.The employes of Washburne Crosby

& Co., held a meeting with James Mc-Daniel, chairman, and John S. Dodge,secretary, and passed resolutions of re-

i spect to the memory of the late Mr.Crosby, and resolved, "That while wedeplore our.loss .we extend our sym-pathy to the surviving members of thefirm a^ul assure them of our confidentbelief that the excellent management of

the past wiil be tontinued In the fu-ture.-'

BLIND MEN HOLD A REVEL..

Sight less Human Beings and TheirJolly Club IAte.

From the New York Telegram.''When that man there is sober a little

boy leads him; when he is drunk he isIndependent and walks alone."

•So said a Third avenue policeman toa Telegram reporter.

"By that Isuppose he is blind," re-marked the reporter.

"Blind as a bat.""Is he a beggar?""Not by a long shot. He earns his

living and never gives us a bit oftrouble. Like to know him?"

"Certainly.""I'll introduce you. ITe's probably

goin' to a meet in', and I'll git him totake you along."

At the call of the policeman the blindman stopped and walked back. Therewas pathos unspeakable In his recklessadvance. As he drew nearer the re-porter recognized him. He had oftenseen him walking the street timorouslytrusting to his boy guide, while he criedout: "Brooms! Here's your goodbrooms cheap!"

"Loaded again, John?" observed thepoliceman.

"Not yet," and John- smiled andsmacked his lips, as if in anticipation ofgood things to come.

"Then you are goin' to a meetin'?""This is the night we boys meet

around the festal board.""1 have a friend here that would like

to go with you," and the policeman in-troduced John and the reporter.

"Very pleased to know you. sir," hesaid. "The boys are always glad to seea friend of the cop. Eh, old fellow?"and he grasped the policeman's arm af-fectionately.

As he seemed impatient to be off, thereporter slipped John's arm throughhis. John promptly withdrew it.

"No," he said; "you take my arm. Iam escort on this occasion."

He conducted the reporter up theavenue, and above Twenty-third streetturned toward the East river. Before athree-story house he paused and openedthe door with a latch key. doing in, heled the reporter to the third story,where he entered a room withoutknocking. Inside there were half adozen men seated at a table, smoking ordrinking from mugs of beer. No onetinned his face when John and the re-porter came in.

"It is John," said one, and in chorusthey all said:• "How are you, John?"

They knew John had not come alone,but they waited for him to announcethe visitor.

"1 have a friend with me— a gentle-man," he said.

They rose to their feet."Is he afflicted?" they asked in a

voice. They meant blind."He is not," replied John."Does he come to mock?""He does not.""Then we drink his health."Thus was the reporter made welcome

at the table round. When the guest wasseated a mug of beer was placed in frontof him. John was also helped, andeverybody drank.

John started a bacchanalian song, andthe others joined in with the vigor ofdebauchees. The reporter sang, too.but made a wretched discord, whichthey hospitably overlooked.

"Friend from the light of day, tell uschildren ofthe night news," said one.

"Astory," said John, "is what theywant, about those who can see.".

The reporter complied, and was grat-ified that he pleased his auditors.

"Empty is the growler," exclaimedthe blind man who officiated as waiter.

"The dice," cried John.A cup and dice were set on the table."The lowest number pays for the

drinks," he cried. "Our guest will tellus what the throws amount to and savethe time taken up by feeling the dice."

That speech presented a picture tothe reporter, who had consented to actas tally clerk. As he watched the castof the dice and made his record heimagined these blind men throw-ing for drinks and then carefully feel-ing the holes in the dice to learn hewmuch they had scored.

"It is on John," said the reporter,when the dice box had gone the rounds.

"Ha, ha!" the merry men laughed inchorus. .

"John pays for the drinks. Ha", ha!"( John rapped on the table with hismug, and a little girl appeared. Johnthrew a dollar on the table . and sangrather than said :

"Fill up the growler, Meg, Meg, fill itfull."

The others took it up, and while theychanted the words the reporter lookedaround the club room. It was bare offurniture, save the table and chairs, andhad no wndow that looked out intostreet or yard. It was what is knownas a dark inner room, and rented cheap.

Meg came back quickly and the mugswere refilled, then emptied and filledagain.

"A story from the dominie is in or-der," said John, and all grew quietwhile a sad-voiced man rose to his feet.

"I'lltell you a story— a short one—about a little girl. Last summer, oneday, a bare-footed girl who had beencrying stopped me and asked: 'Blindman. do you ever stump your toes?'

"She had hurt her toe 'by striking itagainst a stone. 'Yes, so often thatthere is no feeling in them,' I said." .

\u25a0 ""Iwish I had been blind and gotover it,' she said."'So do I wish Icould get over it,' I

replied.""So do we all," exclaimed the chorus

as the dominie sat down.So passed the night. There was sing-

ing, story telling, dice throwing andfrequent reappearances of Meg. As themorn approached one after another ofthe blind fell asleep with his head onthe table, and the reporter slipped out,leaving them to their dreams.

mABlack Snake Chokes an Owl.

Palatka, (Fla.) News.Hon. A. L. Barker, of Lochloosa, in

this county a few days ago saw a largehorned owl strike as if for prey in amarsh near the road along which hewas riding." As the bird did notrise immediately, Mr. Barker con-cluded it had caught something tooheavy for it torise, and walked over tosee. On reaching the spot the owl wasseen struggling with extended wings onthe ground nearly dead. Mr. Barkerkilled him with a blow of his whip-stock, and then saw that a black snakewas- twisted around his neck and hadalready choked the bird nearly todeath. The owl had caught thesnake * near the head and piercedit with his great hooked talons.Evidently the snake had thrown therest of its body around the bird's neckin a deadly embrace, and but for Mr.Barker's intervention would havequickly killed it. So fierce was thesnake that it paid no heed to the deathof its enemy, and Mr. Barker killedboth and then carried the two, stilllocked together, to his home, wherethey were seen by many.
