HOTELSJtRE BUSYOne of the Results of Immigration,

Says Ira H. Shnttuck."Minneapolis is beginning to profit by the

great flood of immigration which hasbeen pouring into Minnesota and the Da-kotas during the past few years," saidIra H.^ Shattuck of the Hotel Nicollet to-day. "The hotels have long noted an in-creasing business which must be-attrib-uted to the phenomenal growth of thenorthwestern country. Business is muchbetter with us than it was last year, al-though the business of 1900 showed a goodincrease over former years. In fact,there is a steady, sure increase which isvery gratifying. We at first supposedthat the return of prosperity was respon-sible for it all, but the rapid settling upof the country, in addition to the naturalgrowth of farming communities, cities andtowns, is the best explanation of the im-proved conditions."

WEDNESDAY EVENING, JUNE U 1901.

EIGHTH GRADE GRADUATESThese are the days of graduation exer-

cises and classes big and little are beinghonorably turned out of schools of all sorts,having completed with credit the work ofthe various courses laid down. In point ofnumbers the eighth graduates are strong-est. In all 631 children, who have for thepast year labored under the care of eighthgrade teachers will be graduated thisweek and will be ready to take up highschool work next fall. Of these 631, 350are from the central district, 91 from theeast high district, 112 from the northhigh district and 82 from the south highdistrict. If all of these enter the highschools this fall there will be a demandfor more high school room. Probably notall will enter. The number may be largeenough, however, to raise the question ofspace with the board of education, for, tooffset the actual influx of material, thehigh school graduations will make roomlor only 330, 154 from central high, 73from north high, 44 from south high and59 from east high.

A DISCIPLE OF DOWIEM. N. Price, Formerly Member of a

Minneapolis Printing Firm.

M. N. Price, formerly of the PriceBrothers' Printing company of this city,

is now a servant of John AlexanderDowie, who calls himself Elijah and Johnthe Baptist. More specifically, Mr. Priceis superintendent of the printing depart-ment of the Zion Printing and Publishing

House. The business of the Price Broth-ers' Printing company was sold to theMiller-Davis Printing company thisspring, and on March 30 Mr. Price quietlyleft the city. Nothing remarkablemarked this silent departure except thatmodesty which is characteristic of thedisciples of the great overseer of the sandlots at WaukegaD. Although Mr. Pricewas a pillar in the Franklin Avenue M.E. church, he has not yet won over anyto belief in his new faith. It is under-stood that Mr. Price is now one of thehigh deacons in Zion. The salary at-tached to his position is understood to beabout $4,500, a certain percentage ofwhich is covered back into the treasury

for the good of the cause.

QUARANTINEJHOSPITAL 0. K.G. A. Eubank Speaks in Praise of

Its Management.

G. A. Eubank of the Janney, Semple,Hill Co. has just 'been released from thequarantine hospital, where he spenteleven days with the smallpox, or whathad been diagnosed as such. He speakshighly of the management of the hospi-tal by Mrs. Strom and of the excellentnursing of Mrs. Thompson. Mr. Eubankobjected to the idea of going to the hos-pital at first, but on the recommendationof his physician, went, Mrs. Eubank ac-companying him. He found the place neatand clean. The food furnished was abun-dant and of good quality, and was nicelyserved.

GRAND JURY FINALEThat Busy Body Putting in Its Last

Strokes.When the clerk called the roll of the

grand jury at 10 o'clock this morning itwas found that only fifteen members werepresent, one short of a quorum. It wasnot long, however, before four others putin an appearance and consideration wasgiven to several jail cases.

There is nothing on the surface to indi-cate that the jury has any intention ofproceeding further -with the municipal in-vestigation and it is likely to conclude Itsbusiness in a hurry and adjourn sine di ?.

The Gale Prize.

FROM CENTRAL HIGHOne Hundred and Fifty-four Stu-

dents Are Graduated.

IT WAS A HAPPY COMMENCEMENT

Ml«m Mabel Hunt Takes The JournalPrise—The Gale Prize

Winners.

Eighteen years ago, when Dr. Jordanbegan his connection with the public

school system of Minneapolis, the totalenrollment in the only high school was174. Last evening at the Swedish taber-nacle, almost that many young men andwomen were graduated from the Centralhigh school, one of the four in the city'ssystem. Diplomas were given to 154.Like its predecessors, the class was com-posed of bright-faced, intelligent andwell-dressed young people. Their com-mencement exercises were of much inter-est and were marked by probably morethan ordinary originality. Each speakerwas very liberally applauded, and thepresentation of the diplomas was accom-panied by applause, the prize-winners andthe football heroes naturally garneringthe lion's share.

The attendance was immense, and thepresence of a squad of police was neces-sary in handling the hundreds who cravedadmission. It is said that as many wereturned away as were able to gain admis-sion.

Miss Mabel Augustine.

Particularly Interesting to the friendsof the Central was the violin playing ofMaftel Maude Augustine and an originalpiano composition dedicated to the classof 19D1 by Ethel G. Palmer. No less in-teresting were the other events on theprogram, the piano number by Miss IreneWood, who played a Chopin composition;the vocal solo by Miss Eleanor Skinner,and the salutatory and essay on"Growth," by Miss Winifred Thompson,and Miss Susie Kohen's essay on "TheHebrew Prometheus." There were butthree in the contest for the S. C. Galeprize for oratory, as follows:

"The Knight of the Twentieth Cen-tury," by MiloD. Webster; "An OriginalStory—The Minstrel," by Frederic C,Calhoun, and "The Path of Duty Is theWay to Glory," by Benjamin Heuston.

Miss Hunt, Valedictorian.Miss Mabel Hunt, the valedictorian,

made a heartfelt little address at the con-clusion of her oration on the improve-ment in educational institutions. Shethanked the board of education, Dr. Jor-dan, Principal Greer, the teachers and thecitizens of Minneapolis, and, in biddingfarewell to her classmates, urged themto always bear in mind the class motto,"Semper Surgens, Semper Prosrediens."

Miss Hunt, at the close of her valedic-tory, was presented with TheJournall>nze awarded to each high school of thecity every year to the member of thegraduating class having the highest aver-age for general excellence.

The Journal Prize.In presenting the prize, which is a hand-some gold medal, Judge H. D. Dickinson, who

is himself a graduate of the Central schoolplaced the audience in a good hinjor by re-calling the press dispatch about the womanwho had taken a vow never to sreak untilher sex were allowed to vote. The politiciansand those who control legislation would havereleased her in twenty-four hours had theybeen present at the exercises and heard howwell the members of the sex could speak.He felt it a high compliment to be selected topresent the prize, and the pleasure was en-hanced from the (act that he was an alumnusof the school. Sixteen or seventeen yearsago, when he attended the old school, thepupils had the sams ambitions and aims andwere probably just as bright, but they didnot have the same advantages as the schoolsystem has grown and developed until nowthe graduates went out better equipped forlife's struggle than in his day.

Then he told the story of the callow youngman who insisted on arguing the Darwiniantheory with a learned bishop and finallydeclared that he could rot see what differ-ence it would make even if his grandfatherhad been an ape. The bishop could not eitherbut ventured to remark that ?t might havamade some difference to the yoi ng man'sgrandmother.

The influence of the press is but little b3-iow that of the schools. A press whichteaches morals, which attacks corruptionand venality in whatever guise or whereverit may be found, is of great force for goodin tte community. At the head of this classstands the Minneapolis Journal.

The sentiment was generously applaudedall over the auditorfum. A short explanationof the significance of the medal was givenand it was then handed to Miss Mabel Hunt,Judge Dickinson congratulating her on be-half of The Journal and the large audi-ence, wishing ber continued honors in hercareer.

Former Governor John Lind, who, withProfessor W. W. Hobbs of the North Sidehigh school, and George B. Alton, stateinspector of schools, judged the Galeoratorical contest, presented the Galeprizes, as follows: MiloD. Webster, first;Frederic C. Calhoun, second, and Ben-jamin Heuston, third. Mr. Lind simplyexpressed the hope that the orators wouldbecome as renowned as the football play-ers of the Central high.

Instead of speaking to the graduates,Dr. C. M. Jordan, the superintendent ofschools, addressed the audience, calling

attention to the unfortunate lack ofmeans which compelled 1,800 pupils to at-tend school for half sessions only andcompels 3,500 more to go to school inbasements, vacant stores and other make-shift places. The board must be supplied

with more funds or the schools must suf-fer. He called attention to the fact thatin the last eighteen years the school at-tendance had increased eighteen-fold,while the city had grown only about four-fold. The closing act of the evening wasthe presentation of the diplomas.

The members of the class of 1901 are asfollows:

CAUGHT ON THE WING"We were not really scared in our coun-try," said H. A. Libby of Park River, N. D.,

but we were pleased to see the rain of Mon-day and Tuesday. The spring plowing wasin need of it, although it could have held outseveral days longer. There are many thingsthat can happen between now and harvesttime, but in the ordinary run of events weare sure of a wheat crop. All of the politicsdiscussed in the state is gossip concerningsenatorial and congressional possibilities.There is much sentiment favoring Spaldingfor congress. Senator La Moure is the onlyone from the northern part of the state whohas been suggested. No one knows if hecares for the nomination. He would makethe chase decidedly interesting if he con-cluded to make the try. Governor White hasgained the confidence of the people early. Itis generally conceded that he is running thatone office according to White's Ideas and thepeople of the state take to that kind of aprogram."

W. E. Dangerfield, prominent in the politics,of northern lowa, was here this morning witha large party of farmers from the vicinityof Waverly on their way north to purchaseMinnesota lands. Mr. Dangerfield predictsthat more lowa money will be invested inMinnesota lands during the coming year thanever before. A good crop in the wheat beltof northern Minnesota and North Dakota willbring a large number of land buyers fromnorthern lowa this fall.

"The lumber trade has been greatly bene-fited in the northwest by the recent rains,"said R. H.McCoy of Grand Folks. "Thefarmers say that one more rain makes thecrop certain. That begets confidence andconfidence begets lumber business. Manitobahas been somewhat dry and although thedemand for boards has been good from thatprovince the uncertain condition of thingsuntil the recent rains caused the manufao-turers to go a trifle slow in accepting busi-ness."

There is a la;-ge attendance at the medicalconvention from the cities and towns of thenorthwest. Dr. J. E. Engstad of Grand Forksone of the North Dakota physicians here, isat the Nicollet. He says that the recentrains will do an immense amount of good,especially in the northern part of the RedRiver valley. This last rain arrived at exact-ly the right time. Until the dry weatherspell the season had been decidedly favor-able and with a fair deal from the elementsduring the next four weeks the crop will besatisfactory.

William T. Coad of Rapid City, S. D., oneof the pioneers of Dakota teiritcry, is at theWest. For years Mr. Coa'd was a prominentfigure in South Dakota politics. He calledthe first republican state convention to or-der and was chairman of the first state com-mitte. Stock and mines will always makewealth for the Hills country, he sa>s. Allof the towns in the Hills are growing.

H. H. Collins is back from a trip to thocoast. He says that Washington lumbermenare doing a wonderful business. Old Minne-sota lumbermen who have gone into thatcountry to take advantage of the cheapstumpage are enthusiastic over the big busi-ness they are doing. The cargo trade withChina fascinates them. In spite of the re-cent trouble in the orient China is takingan increased amount of American lumberevery year. The Alaska travel is great.
