SCHLEY FORPRESIDENT

The Admiral's MarylandFriends Start a Boom.

GORMAN INDORSES IT

Schley One of the Few Men onWhom Dems. Could Unite

HE HAS PROBABLY GIVEN CONSENT

9iQ Active Effort* on the Admiral's' V.; Behalf Till the Court of

Inquiry Adjourns.

iFrotn The Journal Bureau. Boom AS, TomHaildlng, Washington.

Washington. Aug. 31.—The Marylandfriends assuming that the court of in-quiry, whose sittings are to begin Sept. j12, will triumphantly acquit him of the Ibase charges under' which he has beenresting since the Spanish war, are alreadyquietly talking of bringing him forwardas a candidate for the democratic presi-dential nomination in 1904. He will re-tire from active duty this year, and in

1904 will be 65 years of age. With arobust constitution, which has been wellpreserved, he is now in his prime, andthe years sit so lightly upon him that hemight easily pass for a man of 50 yearsInstead of 62.

At a meeting of Maryland democratic jleaders, held recently in Baltimore, theavailability of Schley for presidentialpurposes was seriously discussed, and it is i

eald that every one present expressed theopinion that he was undoubtedly one ofthe very few men in the country on whomthe 'entire party could unite. He has/no political record, and therefore, .nopolitical.enemies. He has nothing to ex-plain, for he has not mixed in civil af-fairs. The whole people, with one accord,has taken his side of the pending con-troversy, and should the court of inquiryacquit him, it is predicted that his popu-larity, already second only to that ofAdmiral' Dewey among the naval heroes

,' of the late war, will become so great asto make him the '•logical" nominee of thedemocratic party, torn by factions and onthe verge of reorganization. So say theMarylanders, and they are so earnestabout it that they have already arrangedfor taking up the matter with him 'for-'

; mally as soon as the court of Inquiry shallhave handed in Its findings. At the sametime that these friends of the admiral aregiving the democratic party, as they claim,an ideal candidate, they will be avenging

• Schley's wrongs in. a most splendid man-ner. Whether elected or not, the mere

' fact that a great political party had taken- him up as its choice for the chief magis-tracy of the nation would put a cap sheaf

\u25a0' on the findings of the " court and sendSchley down into history none the worsefor his late experiences.

In Washington, where Schley has manywarm friends, the presidency matter hasbeen talked for several days and givencordial indorsement. If Schley will saythe word, Maryland will start his boomand draw to his support at once the south-ern states of the Atlantic seaboard, thusgiving him a start in the • race for thenomination very similar to that whichVice President Roosevelt seems to haveon the republican side. 1 The meeting InBaltimore referred to above was at-tended by a number of members of thestate central committee. While Arthur P.Gorman was not there in person, it issaid that he was represented, and assur-ances are given that his faction of the,Maryland party will loyally support theSchley; candidacy. From the vigor withwhich the matter has been taken up inMaryland, it is suspected that Schley hasbeen consulted informally and has given

, his consent, all hands agreeing, however,that nothing is to be done publicly untilafter the court of inquiry shall have con-cluded its labors. Incidentally, this move-ment well illustrates the.confidence whichthe friends of Schley have in the out-come of the forthcoming investigation.

NEW 'PHONE LINESConsolidated Telephone and Tele-

graph Company Organized.

WILL BUILD LINE TO DULUTH

Minnesota to Be Strung "With Inde-pendent Wires—Twin City Com-

pany Behind the Scheme.

To place the twin cities In direct, tele-phonic communication with every cornerof the state and the northwest is the pur-pose of the Consolidated Telephone andTelegraph company which came into ex-istence to-day by the filing articles of In-corporation with the secretary of state.There is capital, brains, push and energybehind the company and it expects to rev-olutionize the telephone business of thenorthwest. ; \

The V'ew company will be associatedwith the Twin City Telephone companyand will have its headquarters in theletter's new exchange which is beingerected at Third avenue S and Seventhstreet. The company will have a workingcapital of $100,000. The officers and direct-ors of the new company are as follows:E. H. Moulton, president; Clarence H.Judson, secretary; Edward E. Webster,treasurer; H. H. Potter and f\ R.Clement. It is learned from Mr. Webster,general manager of the Twin City com-pany that the first move out of the twincities will be toward the head of the lake.As a matter of fact a line has already beensurveyed and materials purchased and thework of construction will begin within a'day or two. It is President Moulton's wishto prosecute the work as fast as possiblein the hope that the Lake Superior twinsmay be talking with the Mississippi rivertwins within thirty days.

In Duluth the Consolidated company willconnect with the Zenith City Telephonecompany having between 1,500 and 1,600subscribers and in West Superior the con-nection will be with the Peoples'' Tele-phone company, which has 800 subscribers.The Zenith City company has been makinggreat progress in Duluth.

The new long distance line will be ofgreat convenience to the grain, coal, flour,iron and jobbing interests as well as thegeneral public.

As soon as the Duluth line is con-nected with the twin cities, possibly be-fore, the Consolidated will branch outinto other parts of the state. There arealready many independent local telephonecompanies in the state and the Consoli-dated will,stand to them in the relationof a parent.

PERPLEXITY IN PERSIARUSSIA IMPEDES BRITISH TRADE

A Leonine Roar Comes PercolatingThrough the Columns of

"The Thunderer."

London, Aug. 31.—Russian agents inPersia are interfering with the Gbetta-Nushki trade route between Asia andeastern Persia, opened by the Indian gov-ernment. According to a Times dispatchfrom Simla, Russia, by virtue of a loancontracted in 1900, has effective controlof the customs and is giving endless worryand trouble to traders by means of cus-toms regulations, especially quarantinerestrictions. It is possible for Russia toparalyze British trade by long detentionsof caravans and travelers. The native be-lief that Russian influence is supreme ineastern Persia is having.a bad politicaleffect, -"v. cc

President Rowland Blennerhassett, com-missioner of education in Ireland, writ-ing on the general subject of Russian andBritish relations, says: "We must strivefor a final settlement with Russia or girdourselves for a fight." And the Times,editorially, says:

"Great Britain must decide whether itis compatible with our interests, com-mercial and political, to allow a foreign !power, like Russia, to establish itself onthe Persian gulf. Possibly it may be ex-pedient to purchase political peace by thesurrender of commercial interests whichmight cost too much to defend. But if.we are resolved' to defend them we mustnot wait until it is too late to declareour intentions and take action."

Gambling on Great Lakes LegalMow YorkJam Soaclml Sorvlom

Cleveland; Ohio, Aug. 31.—A peculiar discovery was made to-day by the UnitedStates | district attorney at.^Cleveland when he was preparing to prosecute two menfor gambling. He found that there was no law in the United States statutes pro-hibiting gambling on the great lakes and was obliged to discharge the prisoners.

Two men were arrested Thursday on the complaint -of J. C. - Thomas of Jackson,Mich. He claimed that while coming to Cleveland on a Buffalo boat Wednesdaynight he was induced to join in a game of poker with two gentlemanly strangers.He arrived in .Cleveland Thursday morning with very little to show but ex-perience; - The other men had the money. He Immediately swore out a warrant fortheir arrest and the gamblers were locked up until yesterday afternoon, at which timethe case was to have been heard. A few minutes before the time set for the hear-ing the district * attorney discovered that the men were being held illegallythatthere was nothing in the federal statutes prohibiting gambling except in the Districtof Columbia.;:.£;\u2666/V^ •" ::'r:.:.i^ \~\ ??-\±zr?-^:. \%^--<

"We can now look for floating gambling, palaces on the. great lakes," said thedistrict attorney, "unless congress passes a law on the subject."

Butchers to Enforce a Sunday LawNew York, Aug. 31.—The butchers of New York; are determined that the new

state law prohibiting the sale or delivery of meats on Sunday shall be enforced.To this end an army of 2,700 men all opposed to Sunday labor and all eager to aidin carrying .out 'the provisions of \u25a0:• the 1*- law will patrol : the V city; to-morrow. 7 Thebutchers ;came to the conclusion -that - the ;: most :effective ; means they could : adoptto stop the sale ; and' delivery^ of, meat on ' the day they say belongs to '\u25a0 themselves forrest and.recreation was to create a sort of legal vigilance committee of their own. :"

Columbia therefore beats Constitutionthree minutes, seventeen seconds, elapsedtime and four minutes, twenty-eight sec-

onds corrected time.

Batemans Point,, Aug. 31.The commit-tee boat at 11:20 signalled a windwardand leeward race of fifteen miles, thecourse being south-southeast. The windhad hauled to the south of east and haddropped to about eight knots. The com-mittee announced that, under the newmeasurements, Constitution allows Co-lumbia one minute and eleven secondsover a thirty mile course. This is a de-crease of six seconds since the yachts

were last measured.Both yachts prepared for the start with

No. 2 top clubsails set over their lowersails and baby jibtopsails in stops. Thepreparatory signal was fired at 11:30 andfive minutes later came the warning sig-

nat. Both yachts at this time were up to

the windward of the line but three min-utes before the starting signal Columbiabore round and stood round the flagshipon the western end of the line. Consti-tution followed and tried to overtake theold boat by breaking out her jib tops.

Cutting in close by the stern of the com-mittee boat, Constitution -succeeded in

igetting a nice place on the weather of>Columbia, but Captain Barr knew a trickworth two of that. He trimmed in his

1sheet and being on the starboard tack,!forced the Constitution across the linetbefore the gun was fired. ; -" •

Columbia also was over, but by quickwork Captain Barr wore ship and stoodback, and the next time Columbia crossedshe was to the weather of Constitutionand also ahead. Constitution, being slow-er, could not catch up with the old boatand crossed astern. The starting timewas:

Columbia 11:41:45.Constitution 11:42: V,. s" . .

Handicapped at the Starting.

Constitution was handicapped .by thestarting. , Within two minutes after thestarting gun was fired, Columbia went overon ithe starboard . tack but immediatelytacked on Constitution's weather. bow asthe latter crossed on the port tack. .*

;. The wind at this time was blowing agood ten \ knots . and the yachts stood

i straight out to sea, and at 11:50 ColumbiaI was -'\u25a0 gaining and .fully one-eighth iof< a| mile ahead of Constitution. '." ;f'

start. On the way out Columbia gradual-;ly pulled away from Constitution. jgThewind shifted a little to the east, so thatthe boats were able to lay a better courseon the port" tack than on : the jstarboardtack.- Columbia was| the first to., comeabout and head for the mark on* the star-board tack at 1:44, followed a minutelater by Constitution.".. At .this time itlooked as if Columbia was nearly" half amile ahead. "Only the' topsails of the twoyachts ; could be seen from shore, thehulls being below the horizon. \ So nearlyhad they been ;able to fetch the mark ;onthe port tack that the starboard tack wasa short-one. I On this brief tack,' however,Columbia gained more and had a fine leadwhen, at 1:28, she swung round on theport tack again and headed for the outermark. Columbia rounded at 1:30:35; Con-stitution, 1:32:20, a lead for Columbia of1 minute and 45 seconds, and a gain in afifteen-mile beat to windward of 1 minuteand 30 seconds. ;. \u25a0 V . .

Both boats jibed around the mark andwith booms to port headed for the finish.The yachts sailed some time before break-ing out their spinnakers and 'in the firstfifteen minutes of sailing it looked as ifConstitution had gained a; little.- Justbefore reaching the outer mark the windincreased to something over ,12'knots. anhour, which practically ensured a finerace to the finish.

STRIKE PREVENTIVEDecidedly Original Plan Tried at

Duquesne.

MEN DISCHARGED SUMMARILY

Strike Promoters, However, Claim

They Will Succeed in Tying

Up the Mills.

Pittsburg, Aug. 31.—The mills of theCarnegie company at Duquesne were in

operation this morning as usual, notwith-standing the report of last night that

the plant was badly crippled and wouldlikely have to close down this morning.

The demonstration of McKeesport strik-ers yesterday and the discharge of men

' suspected of being of union sympathizerswould cause, it was thought, a generalstrike, but such was not the case. It was. claimed that everything but the Bessemer

' steel department would Idle to-day.

-.- - Last evening a committee <of employes

from the open hearth department notifiedthe foreman not to recharge the furnaces,as they were going out on strike thismorning at the end of the turn. Theforeman immediately notified the officialsof the mill of the intentions of the menand it was decided to make wholesale dis-charges in the effort to stay the tide ofunion sentiment. The men discharged

were two helpers, two ladle-men, twoengineers, three electricians, two bossstokers and two brakemen.

Eleven of the discharged men were es-• corted from the works by policemen and

were not allowed to talk to their fellowworkmen while going out of the works.Seventy-five extra policemen were put onduty at Duquesne during the night andare there this morning. An official atDuquense who was seen this morning

said:"Not Forgotten Homestead."

"The works are going all right thismorning and I think they will continue

. to do bo. The men have not yet for-gotten Homestead and I do cot think they

will strike."The strikers claim the strike is prac-

'-'\u25a0 tically on and that the men are cleaningup preparatory to' coming out- Therewas no disorder" about the mill. A shut-down of the Duquesne steel works wouldhave a far reaching effect, seriously crip-. pling the American Tin Plate company.When the Bellairo Steel Works closeddown, the orders for tin plate • bars wereall transferred to Duquesne. Since then... the Duquesne plant has been stocking thetin plate plants. Some of them have twoweeks' supply on hand.

Denial is made in McKeesport thismorning of the report that a break had

' been made in the strike through' the re-turn of about forty men to the seamlesstube department of the . National Tube.Works. It is stated that the seamlesstube department did not start up, al-

- though there were a number of men atwork in the plant. These men, however,were repairmen, a number of whom havebeen busy there for some time.

Insists a Strike Is Coming.

George Holloway, president of the En-terprise Lodge of the Amalgamated As-sociation of McKeesport, who returnedfrom Duquesne this morning, said thatthe day turn in the open hearth furnaceswent on duty, at 6 o'clock this morning

, . and gave notice to the foreman that Justas soon as the furnaces were emptied

„ they were going out on strike. These. fur-naces were recharged at 11 o'clock lastnight and it requires about ten hours toempty them. Between 300 and 400 men

, are employed in this department, MMr. Holloway expressed himself as con-

fident that the entire plant would soon._ be-, closed. He is arranging for a mass-

meeting at Duquesne to-night to be ad-dressed by President Shaffer. A delega-tion of strikers, headed by a brass band,will march from McKeesport and paradethrough' Duquesne previous to the meet-

•.; ing. President Holloway 6aid further. that. after they closed the Duquesne mills an\ effort will-be made to get the men out at

Homestead.Rumor has it that John Jarrett, secre-

tary of the labor 'bureau of the Americansheet Steel company, has gone to Europe

r to secure skilled labor to replace thestrikers, but the report is discredited inlabor circles. It is known that Mr. Jar-

r rett has not been well for some time, and, it is said that his mission to Europe is; in search of health. * \u25a0; '\u25a0:--\u25a0}\u25a0\u25a0 ";f-.;"V:'Y-u

The proposed miners' demonstration at; Monessen, Pa., on Labor Day, it is said,:- has fallen through. The leaders fear a

clash between the miners and the town, authorities, and have about decided to' "call it off. The jlabor | demonstration in»^iPittsburg promises to be the greatest everj••, seen here. Those ; having the affair jin

\u25a0•;<;-. charge . claim that 25,000 men will take'•t part in the morning parade. Following• the parade the . allied trades -and labor,:.;.unions of western Pennsylvania will hold-; a rally at Ross Grove, a few miles north-;,cf this city. .. . _,: •

'The* tube works at Beaver Falls, whichr was shut down June 15 and shortly after-wards sold at receiver's sale, will resume

; operations Monday under the manage-L ment ofthe Pittsburg Seamless Tube com-

pany, When running full it employs 300• hands.

All the plants started In this city sincethe strike began were operating with in-creased forces to-day. Manager Harper ofthe American Steel Hoop company de-clared that before the end of next week... he would have the Painter mills. com-pletely manned and that instead of onlysix mills being operated, as was the case- - before the strike, the full eight mills willbe operated. Before the end of the nextweak Manager Harper expects to have theentire plant operated double turn.

Washington, Aug. 31.The AmericanFederationist, the official organ [ of theFederation of Labor and edited by SamuelGompers, says:

We shall stand by the Amalgamated Asso-ciation in the present conflict to the fullextent of our power, both morally and finan-cially. We shall aid in every lawful way themen on strike, or who may come out onstrike to , maintain the workers in their rightto organize and to extend their organization;... so that the only power which stands for their

| protection and advancement against the avar-\u25a0\u25a0 ice of concentrated wealth may be perfected;, and perpetuated. We shall not relax our ef-. |",\u25a0 forts Ito .aid the brave men who are striking

UNIONS IN ENGLAND

Denial That They" Cause Industriesto Seek Other Fields. .

Washington, Aug. < 31.— .AmericanFederationist, the official organ of ; theFederation of Labor and of which SamuelGompers is editor, to-day prints replies

from a number of prominent labor or-ganization advocates in Great Britain -toan inquiry from Mr. Gompers as towhether is true that England's In-dustries are seeking other fields, and ifso whether this is the fault of the trtadcsunions. The - replies are all negative asto the influence of the unions. GeorgeH. Barnes, general secretary of theAmalgamated Society of Engineers, Man-chester, Eng., says:

Those industries which are best organizedon the workmen's side are the'most prosper-ous industries of the country. The ship-building, engineering, coal getting and cot-ton spinning are all . well organized indus-tries and were never so prosperous, whereas,on the other hand, the heavy textile indus-tries, shoemaking and several" other. indus-tries that might be mentioned, and which arebut indifferently .organized on the side of theworking people, are dwindling.

Metal Mechanics Aggrieved.

Washington, Aug. 31.—President Mul-holland of the International Associationof Metal Machinics has been in conferencehere with President Gompers of theAmerican Federation of Labor concern-ing the affairs of the former order. Thetrouble grows out of the action of twomanufacturing companies, members of thelocal organization of the local MetalTrades Association of Employers, andwhich it is alleged have adopted a courseIn selecting applicants for employmentWhich constitutes a discrimination againstunion men. President Gompers has com-municated with the chief officers of thecompanies with a view to investigatingthe validity of the complaints made bythe mechanics association, and securingan adjustment of the difficulties if thisbe possible. .

DEATHS AMONG BOERSREFUGE-CAMP MORTALITY HEAVY

Probably Due to Failure to Observe

»'*\u25a0 the Ordinaryi Rules of

Hygiene.' \u25a0 -r^, _,-___

London, Aug. 31.—The Standard printsa .startling story on the heavy -death ratein the Boer - refuge camps in the Trans-vaal. The British have collected in thesecamps '62,479 men, women and children.Of this number 1,067 died in July, 860 ofthe deaths being of children under 12 yearsof age. : '.• -;

Kmw YorkSun Snmolml Sarvtcm

The Standard's report, as a matter offact, largely bear's out Miss Hobhouse inher contention that the terirble death rateamong the Boer children " has been •in ameasure due to the aggregation of greatnumbers in camps. The unsanitary habitsof the Boers are probably, comparativelyharmless to a scattered pastoral popula-tion,. but when the refugees are crowdedtogether, under entirely new conditionsthe. difficulties of.inducing mothers to ob-serve rules of hygiene may well lead todisaster". At the beginning of Augustthere were 100,000 persons in the concen-tration camps in the Transvaal and Or-ange"- Free , State. ..,*;.

A correspondent of the Morning Post as-serts that the Boer refugees get eighteenpounds in rations per head, as againsttwelve pounds per head given to Britishloyalists, and he recommends as politi-cally and economically advisable that theBoers be removed to the coast.

New York, Aug.

When the r revolutionaryparty-in the United States of Colombia issuccessful, as it will surely be within thenext month, these clericals will be ex-pelled," said Raoul Perez, the diplomaticsecretary of the Colombian revolutionaryparty in the United States, at his head-quarters in this city last night. He con-tinued:

"The revolutionary party has 35,000 menin the field. They are fullyequipped withmodern rifles and have plenty of ammuni-tion and all kinds of provisions. The op-position has about 20,000 menthat is,the governmental party. They are poorlyorganized. The revolutionary party con-trols the town of Honda. on the Magdalenariver. That is the principal river run-ning into the interior, and Honda is the

-principal town on the river, being thekey to the whole of the central part of .the country. The trouble commenced fif-teen-years ago, when. President Nunezmade himself dictator. He was throwninto prison and afterwards died from poi-son. President Sanclen, who succeededhim, also assumed the dictatorship, andwas crowded into the background by VicePresident Miroquin. The latter is still incontrol. He was amenable to reason andthe trouble would have ended had it notbeen for the influx of the Spanish priestsfrom the Philippine islands. When wegain control we will expel this disturbing iclerical element. We will then inaugurate |a democratic government based on the !same system as that of the United States iof America."

Judge Ell Torrance—The death of Cap-tain Cross is a personal bereavement tome. Only yesterday I had a brief, pleas-ant conversation with him during whichhe placed his arm: upon my shoulderHe was pre-eminently a gentleman, andduring my twenty-year acquaintance withbim I never knew him .;to act discourte-ously toward any one. , He had .an eventemper and a happy disposition -whichmade him a lovable companion and friendIn every walk.of life he acquitted himselfwell. As a soldier, of the union he wongreat honor and as a citizen he contrib-uted much to the public: welfare. sHisdeath is a severe loss to Minneapolis andwill be sincerely deplored by a very largecircle of friends. ."..; . .

WINS FIRST FIGHTTaxpayers' League Complaint Is

Upheld by Judge Harrison i'iil

IN P. d. R. A. fund contest

The Court Takes the Position That;: the City's Claim Is

:\u25a0'- --*" Valid. \ \

In a decision handed down to-day JudgeHarrison decides that the city is entitledto present its claim for a share of thefunds in the hands of the receiver of theMinneapolis Police Department Relief As-sociation, overruling the demurrer inter-posed by W. H. Donahue, atorney for thereceiver, in which three points were , setforth, as follows: '\u25a0

That the plaintiff was not a proper partyplaintiff. ... -- r ...;.

That there was a defect of partiesplaintiff. ;;:;-;: < i 'That the complaint of the intervenorfailed to state a cause of action. :"Judge Harrison's memorandum shows

clearly that he thinks that the Taxpayers'League is a proper plaintiff and that thecomplaint of the : intervenor states agood ground or cause of action. The de-murrer is, therefore, overruled.. ..The following Is the substance of thejudge's decision:

It is conceded by admitting the allega-tions of the complaint that the city ofMinneapolis was duly notified to make itsclaim, and that it has failed to make anyclaim whatever to its proportion or toany portion of the fund in question. Ifit is determined that the city of Minne-apolis has any interest in this fund heldby the Police Department Relief associa-tion, then it was the duty of the officersin.charge of the city's interests to appearand make claim thereto, as it is the dutyof the city to protect the funds of thecity, and a failure on the part of the cityto make such claim gives to any Indi-vidual taxpayer a right to make the claimon behalf of the city, on his own behalfand on behalf of all other taxpayers ofthe city, as the claim is made in this case.If the city is entitled to this fund claimedit would go into ; the treasury of the city

and would j take the place of the sameamount of tax which, were it not recov-ered, would have to be assessed and col-lected from the taxpayers of the city.Flynn vs. Little Falls Electric and WaterCompany. \u25a0•

7K.-,:.' The City's Claim.

\u25a0•' The second point raised in the demurrerby the receiver, that there is a defect ofparties plaintiff/ I think is without merit.This brings us to a consideration of thequestion, as to whether or not the citymay legally or equitably lay claim toany portion of the fund in the hands ofthis relief association. \ ,'• "J' In the first place there can be no ques-tion but what the moneys, to-wit, the sumof $30,441.88, were collected by the cityauthorities from a, tax imposed by the cityupon the owners of dogs, commonly knownas the dog tax. This fund belonged in thecity treasury '\u0084 and was an asset of thecity; and I think it can make no differ-ence whether it was legally or illegallycollected so long as It was collected and,reduced to the possession of the city. -

The articles of incorporation of the re-lief association provide that the fundscoming into the hands of the associationshould be used in such manner and in 'suchamounts as should be provided by the by-laws of the association, for the supportand relief of sick, disabled or injured

members and for the payment of a \u25a0 cer-tain sum to be fixed by by-law to thewidows or orphans of deceased members,etc. .'\u25a0> \u25a0"' f\',' '•-'\u25a0 . ';.' iiy-Tr.Zfr*• Chapter 143 of the special laws of 1891,of the state, provided that "For the pur-poses of providing and creating a fundfor the use and benefit of the MinneapolisPolice Department Relief association, thecity clerk of said city is authorized andrequired to 'pay to said relief associationfifty per cent of all dog tax collected byand on behalf of said- city. The ' fundhereby created shall be used by said re-lief association for the purposes providedfor and contemplated in its article of in-corporation, constitution and by-laws."

\u25a0 With this pQwer conferred by the act ofthe legislature, the city council of the cityof Minneapolis passed a resolution author-izing and directing the city clerk to payfiftypar cent of the moneys received fromdog tax, to the relief association in ques-tion. . /..'. \u25a0

There is in my mind no doubt but thatthe conditions annexed to the act of thelegislature authorizing the city to give tothe relief, association the moneys of thecity, attached to and became a part of theresolution of the city council granting this !money to the relief association, and in myjudgment, it was a gift by the city coun-cil upon the terms and conditions that saidfund be used by the relief association forthe purposes of "the relief of such of its imembers as should become entitled to isuch relief. * * * The relief associa- jtion had no right at any time to appro-ipriate said money to any other use orpurpose than that prescribed by the donee.* .*'.*. And in my judgment a failure toappropriate it to the purposes for whichIt was given," caused the money to revertto the donor under the conditions of thegift.

Again, there can be no doubt but whatthis relief association was -organized un-der Title 3, Chapter 34, General Laws1898, being "Corporations other than thosefor pecuniary profit." And in defining thepowers of such corporations at section174, the following language occurs: "Pro-vided that such corporation shall nothave the power to divert any gift, grantor bequest from the specific purpose de-signated by the donor without the consentof such donor." This creates a limitationupon the power of the corporation to dowith this fund what it has attempted to doin this action. \u25a0

Right to Funds Paid Out., Another question raised on the argu-ment of .this demurrer is the right ofthe city to its proportion of the fund ille-gally paid out to withdrawing membersof the relief association and paid out con-trary to the purpose or objects of andcontrary to the conditions imposed uponthe gift made by the city, and that, there-fore, the city is entitled to share in itsproportion of this fund, as though it werestill on hand. :;'-'r"' It Is a general rule, In equity that if atrustee enters into any arrangement withreference to the trust fund which sur-renders or limits his control over it orany part of of it, he becomes a guarantorof the fund, irrespective of his motivesor whether his surrender of control wasthe cause of the loss of the fund or not.In other words, the trustee should becharged with the fund If he falls to keepit intact. See McCollister vs. Bishop, 78Minnesota, 228.

I, therefore, conclude that it havingbecome impossible to carry out the pur-pose for which this money was donatedby the city, by the dissolution of the re-lief association and by its refusal to ef-fectuate the conditions of the gift, allmoney paid Iby , the city into the reliefassociation under the powers conferredby the special act of the legislature, beingchapter 143 of the special laws of 1891,and, not . expended under ', the by-laws ofthe association, became • and Is the prop-erty of; the city, and the city is entitledto recover its proportion of all funds paidin. by it and not; expended according toand under the conditions Imposed by thatact, and ; that this proportion should \u25a0 bedetermined by the proportion which thefund contributed by the city bears to thetotal :fund of the association not expendedin carrying out the purposes of the gift.

MRS. LEONE DOLEHAN writes fromthe Commercial Hotel, Minneapolis,Minn., as follows:

"For two months my physician ex-perimented with me, trying to cure a hardcold which setlted in my stomach causinginflammation : and catarrh. I then madeup my mind that he was simply unable tohelp me, and reading some of the flatter-ing testimonials to the value of Peruna insuch cases I thought I would try it.

. "It was six weeks before I could eat ameal without unpleasant effects, but Ihave now been well for six months andI give all the credit to Peruna."—Leone Dolehan.

Mrs. WmJ Henderson, Bordulac, N. C,writes: .."V, ":/'-;./ * ,

"Iwas troubled with vary seriousfemale weakness; had spalls offlow-lag that exhausted me so that 1fearedIwould lose my mind. i suffered un-told agony with my back, the pain ex-tending down my left leg. My pain wasso severe that I would have welcomeddeath at any moment—so no one needwonder that I recommend Peruna so high-ly, for it cured me entirely of that.Not a sign ofpain has ever returned,and that willsoon be two years now.

"I am glad that there is ' a way I canspeak, trusting that many a sufferer willread my testimonial, and not only read,but believe."Mrs. Wm. Henderson.

SKATING IS DIFFERENTNOT AT ALL LIKE BATHING

Secretary Ridgway Says It Is - aFunction of Park Board to

Maintain Skating Rinks.

Some skating enthusiasts who are al-I ready looking forward to the time when; they can indulge In their favorite pastime,: have been given to understand that the; park board will be so hampered for"ready money" that it will be unable toporvide skating accommodations this sea-son.

Secretary Ridgway of the park boardI says that such fears are entire-ly groundless. The question of mak-| ing suitable provisions for skating, heIsays, is one which has been threshed overj time and again by the board until the sub-ject has been finally considered as com-ing under the general head of main-tenance, and clearly a natural function ofthe board.

The general expense of skating, he says,has mounted up to such an extent in thepast that it has been found necessary tojcurtail expenses by cutting offseveral out-side skating parks. There is no ques-tion, however, but that warming housesand other conveniences will be maintainedat Loring, Van Cleve and Powderhornparks. The central, southern and south-eastern sections of the city are thus pro-vided for. The fact that the northeastside is left to shift for itself is due tothe fact that, save for Columbia park,which is well nigh inaccessible, there isno suitable park for skating in that part

of Minneapolis. »

CHANCE FOR CHEAP OUTINGSW. C. T. V. Has a Vacation Home at

Lake Mlnnetonka.

Everyone may not be aware that the Rus-sell cottage at Llnwood, known as the W.C. T. U. Vacation House,, is designed asan outing place at small expense for workingwomen who cannot -afford to go to the lakeif they must pay the usual rates at lakeboarding places.

\u25a0•' of Italy. ?i

Rome, Aug. 31.—The complete triumphof the anarchists in the recent election tothe Rome labor council is causing alarmin government circles. This is the firsttime the anarchists openly contestedagainst the socialists with the result thatthe council stands twelve anarchists tothree socialists. But a more serious factis that all the societies of workmen whichparticipated in the voting qualified asanarchistic, socialistic or republican; not

* a single monarchial workman appeared onthe list. This demonstrates clearly thatthe entire working population of Rome,like that of other large cities in Italy, hascompletely abandoned the monarchialparty. Leading newspapers seriously com-ment on this. The Secolo says:

If all the working classes of Italy have be-come socialists, anarchists or republicans,where are we to find defenders of the mon-archy?

The con-junction of the concerts with the statelair and the reduced rates makes it pos-sible ; or>. many ( to; satisfy this curiosityand at the same time "take in" the otherSights and entertainments of the week.

The series will ' open on Monday withtwo popular concerts, , the . programs , ofWhich have been devised so as to meetthe taste of the public for* "catchy" mv--810 without straying into the realm ofthe trashy. At the matinee the operaticnumbers will be from Balfe's immortal"Bohemian Girl," and Flotow's equallyfamous "Martha." The marches will bothbe of Sorrertlno composition, includinghis new one which he has named "TheKansas City Spirit." This also figures inthe evening program together with themaestro's popular ararngement of "Funi-culi Funicula." Yon Suppe's "Poet andPeasant" overture forms one pleasantand attractive feature of the program.Then there is the great sextet from"Lucia di Lammermoor," by Donizetti,which never falls to evoke the greatestenthusiasm. The * solos are by SignoriBottega, Febbo and Barilotti. The "Tit*Serenade" with its beautiful flute andclarinet duet always pleases.

The crowning feature of the evening,however, will be the apeara_.ce of thepopular songstress, Maud Ulmer Jones, inthe beautiful composition by Bemberg, "LaChanson dcs Balseurs"—the song of thelovers. Mrs. Jones' beautiful sopranovoice never is heard to better advantagethan when \ accompanied by Sorrentino'sband. The director understands well how

MAYOR'S BOND VETOTwo and Twenty Aldermen Turn

it Down Hard.

BRIDGE BOND MATTER TABLED

Bad Night for the Genial Doctor; in the City Council

Chamber.

Mayor Ames' convictions regarding the,Issue of bonds for bridge and permanentimprovement purposes received but scantcourtesy at the hands of the city councillast night. By a vote of 22 toVthe alder-men overruled .the". permanent improve- ,ment bond veto, and turned the doctordown on the Tenth street paving proposi-tion by a vote of 20 to 3. The bridgebond matter was laid on the table.

Alderman Peter Nelson .was the onlyman to stand by the mayor in the onecase, while Aldermaen Main, McCoy andPeterson lined up on his side in.the other.Alderman Rand and Sutherland^ whobrought m the minority report on the per-manent improvement bond matter, werenot on hand last night and there werethose among their colleagues who sawsome significance in their absence. Randis in a bad fix. He wants his stretchof paving on South Washington avenuefinished this fall and it can't be done un-less the bonds are sold. On the otherhand he hates to disagree with his goodfriend the mayor, many propositions, soseemingly there was nothing to be donebut avoid the issue entirely.

Wallace G. Nye speaking for his firmand the Minnesota Loan and Trust compa-ny, the purchasers of the bonds, said they

stood ready to take them without themayor's approval.

The mayor's signature on the bonds is aprimal requisite, however, and here willcome the rub. Presumably he will holdoff untfl the courts take a -hand in thematter.

The proposition to move one of the Jumbopumps to the north side pumping stationwas threshed over again last night, andin the end the recommendation of the ma-jority of the waterworks committee thatthe pump be moved was adopted. Alder-man Lane changed his plans at the elev-enth hour and brought In a minority re-port, declaring against the project. Al-derman Nelson of the committee con-curred In the report and on the vote nineof the twenty-two aldermen present stoodwith them. -«•The matetr Is not ended, however. Be-

fore -the city engineer can proceed withthe work of transferring the pump andpreparing a foundation for It money mustbe set aside to meet the ; expense. Thiswill require fourteen votes, one more than

were recorded in favor of the measure last

night. Undoubtedly the matter will haveto be all fought over again at the next

meeting of the council. ' .- Alderman Peterson's resolution sub-mitting to the people at the next electiona proposition to issue $500,000 bonds forwater department improvements and ex-

tensions was referred to the committee of

one alderman from each ward having in

charge Alderman Leighton's resolution for

of establishing a municipal lighting plant.

SEEN AT THE HOTELS"Ward county, North Dakota, is about 100

miles square, and it has more yealth in itsborders than any other county in the north-west," said Marshall McClure, editor of theMinot (N. D.) Optic. "There are 37,000 acresof flax in the county and the yield willrange between 15 and 22 bushels to the acre.Wheat is turning out fine. Returns from thethreshers show averages of from 25 to 42bushels per acre. The western counties areputting the Red River valley in the shade. ItIs certainly a phenomenal crop. Our corn cropwill aggregate 20,000 bushels, which is ] just16,000 more than we raised last year. Wardcounty mined and sold 65,000 tons of lignite

coal.last year. We will ship twice that amountthis season. All of the new settlers are wellpleased with North Dakota. There Is no,doubt but that in time Renville county tothe north will be reorganized. It containssome of the finest agricultural land in thestate. I believe that In time that part of thestate will be the banner wheat raising sec-tion." i

HEAVY FRUIT SHIPMENTSMINNEAPOLIS'^ RECORD BROKEN

The Market Evidently *» FavoriteOne With . California

••'? Growers.The fruit auction yesterday; morning

closed a record-breaking week in the fruitbusiness in Minneapolis so far as Pacificcoast fruits are concerned. The Com-mercial Bulletin says: .\u25a0\u25a0::,'

The total receipts, of west coast fruits atMinneapolis for the week were .44. cars ; atan estimated value of $60,000. ;."; This wasten .cars better than the average receipts ' forthis time of the year, and was five cars bet-ter than any previous week in the historyof the Minneapolis market. Ins view \u25a0of thefact that west coast fruits have been in com-paratively lightI supply throughout the sea-son, and that many eastern markets •havebeen unable to secure quantities required bythe trade, these heavy receipts at Minne-apolis, and the smashing of the best previousrecord of the quantity handled is highlysignificant. It Indicates that west coast ship-pers have every confidence in the Minne-apolis market, and that they are preparedto give the preference to this market intheir shipments. . '

During the present week evidence was notlacking to show that this confidence was notmisplaced. While the market is lower onpeaches, plums and grapes than last week,the decline was a nominal one and there waspractically no slump In prices, due to heavyofferings of fruit.

Of the fruits received peaches, ;pears andgrapes sold with the greatest readiness.Peaches took a decline averaging about 25cents from previous prices, and sold at fairlymoderate figures, in view of the condition ofthe supply. • Grapes also eased off nominallyand have been In good request. Bartlett pearswere practically no lower, although the sup-ply was 'materially Increased. The only poorarticle on the list was California plums.

In addition to the ]very heavy receipts ofwest coast fruits the market has been un-usualy well supplied with southern peachesand grapes, which have eased off in pricesomewhat but which have sold readily.

Apples Will Be High. ;It is the general opinion of the large apple

dealers along Sixth street that the marketon late varieties of winter apples will be thehighest known in a number of ; years. Themarket on iearly varieties has r been from $1to $1.50 a Barrel higher than a year ago, andabout $2 higher than In years when there hasbeen an average crop. Late varieties of appleswill begin to arrive in this * market withinten days to two weeks, but the supplythroughout the season promises to be unusu-ally light. „?., ' • \u25a0'\u25a0

The Banda RossaScries of Concerts

- The Band* Roaaa series ;of ; concerts atthe Exposition building next week for thebenefit of the public auditorium fund givespromise of being a highly successful affair1,if one mar Judge from the rapid sale oftickets, and seats that has been going onand 'from : the' number of inquiries fromDut-of-iurwn \u25a0' points. • In fact it is ex-peoted that the strangers within our gatestwillifurnish \u25a0 a very large share of theaudiences that gather every afternoonand evening In the Exposition auditorium.She freason -for this is not far to seek.iTor several seasons Signor Sorrentino'smatchless organization has played inJ_i_neapo_s and Us -fame has•' gone forththroughout the-northwest in the news-papers and by word of mouth until there isa natural ourioslty ~ In every communityto hear its wonderful music, .The con-junction .of the concerts with. the statetalr and the reduced rates makes it pos-sible for many to satisfy this curiosityand at the same time ''take in" the othereights and entertainments of the week.

The series will open on Monday withtwo popular concerts, ; the programs ofwhich have been devised so as to meetthe taste, of the public for" "catchy" mu-alo without straying into the realm ofthe trashy. At the matinee the operaticnumbers will be from Balfe's 1 immortal"Bohemian Girl," and Flotow*s equallyfamous "Martha." The marches will bothbe of Sorrertino composition, includinghis new one which he has named "TheKansas City Spirit." This also figures inthe evening program together with theznaestro's popular ararngement of "Funi-culi Funicula." Yon Suppe's "Poet andPeasant" overture forms one pleasantand attractive feature of the program.Then there is the great sextet from"Lucia di Lammermoor," by Donizetti,which never fails to evoke the greatestenthusiasm. The ' solos are by SignoriBottega, Febbo and Barilotti. The "Tit*Serehade" with its beautiful flute andclarinet duet always pleases.

The crowning feature of the evening,(however, will \u25a0> be the abearance of -\u25a0 thepopular songstress, Maud Ulmer Jones, inthe beautiful composition by Bemberg, "LaChanson dcs Balseurs"— song of thelovers. Mrs. Jones' beautiful sopranovole© never is heard to better advantagethan when ,; accompanied by Sorrentino'sband. The director understands well how

to subordinate the, accompaniment dell- Icately :to .the. voice,: and the .band, always !obedient to the, merest flick of his baton,becomes a perfectly controlled instrument. i

Mayor ;Ames' convictions, regarding ; theissue of bonds for bridge and permanentimprovement purposes received but scantcourtesy at * the hands of the city councillast night By a vote of 22 to 1 the alder-men ; overruled the,': permanent improve-ment bond veto, and turned the doctordown on the Tenth street paving proposi-tion by a vote of 20 to 3. The bridgebond matter was laid on the table.

Alderman Peter '. Nelson was the only,man to stand by the .mayor in the onecase, , while Aldermaen Main, -McCoy, andPeterson lined up on his side in the other.Alderman Rand and Sutherland^ whobrought m the minority report on the per-manent improvement bond matter, werenot :on hand last night and there werethose among their colleagues who sawsome significance in their absence. Randis in a bad fix. • He« wants his stretchof paving on South' Washington avenuefinished this fall and it' can't be done un-less the bonds are sold. On the otherhand he hates to disagree with his goodfriend the mayor, many ? propositions, soseemingly there was nothing to be donebut avoid the issue entirely.

Wallace .G. Nye speaking for his, firmand the Minnesota Loan and Trust compa-ny, the purchasers of the bonds,- said they

stood ready to take them without themayor's approval.

The mayor's signature on the bonds Is aprimal requisite, however, and here willcome the rub. . Presumably he will holdoff untfl the courts take a hand in thematter.

The proposition to move one of the Jumbopumps to the north side pumping stationwas threshed over; again last night, andin the end the recommendation of the ma-jority of the waterworks committee thatthe pump be moved was adopted. Alder-man Lane changed his plans at the elev-enth hour and brought in a minority re-

port, declaring against the project. Al-derman Nelson of the committee con-curred In the report and on the vote nineof the twenty-two aldermen present stoodwith them. ' -'\u25a0dV~'-'

The matetr Is not ended, however. .be-fore -the city engineer can proceed withthe work of transferring the pump and

preparing a foundation for it money mustbe set aside to meet the ; expense. This

willrequire fourteen votes, one more than

were recorded in favor of the measure lastnight. Undoubtedly the matter will; haveto be all fought over again at the nextmeeting of the council. .- Alderman Peterson's resolution sub-

mitting to the people at the next electiona proposition to. issue $500,000 bonds forwater department improvements and ex-

tensions was referred to the committee of

one alderman from each ward having in

charge Alderman Leighton's resolution for

a bond issue of $300,000 for the purpose

of establishing a municipal lighting plant.

President Jones named the pruning ocm-mittee last night, as follows:

Alderman Leighton, chairman; Alder-

men Ryan, Chatfleld, S. E. Adams,

Holmes, Rand, McLaskey, McCune, Mc-Coy, Dwyer, Peterson, A. S. Adams and

Schoonmaker. ; .; \u25a0.'\u25a0\u25a0'This committee will take up the burden

of fixingthe appropriations for the variousdepartments after the board of tax levy

has done its turn.' Controller Rogers submitted last night

the estimates of the various departmentsof their needs for next, year. The totalasked for by all city departments is

$1,158,580, against a total of $920,425 al-lowed last year. He estimates the totalreceipts from all sources at $429,000, leav-ing a,balance of $739,580 to be raised by

taxation.Mayor Ames' promised communication

excoriating City Clerk Lydlard material-ized and made good reading, He declaredthe city clerk's action in opening hisveto messages and "scattering their* con ?tents broadcast before the press and pub-

lic," to be an act of the "grossest dis-courtesy," the worst ever inflicted uponhim or any other city, state or govern-

ment executive.

SEEN AT THE HOTELS"Ward county, North Dakota, is about 100

miles square, and it has more wealth in itsborders than any other county in the north-west," said Marshall McClure, editor of theMinot (N. D.) Optic. "There are 37,000 acresof flax in the county and the yield willrange between 15 and 22 bushels to the acre.Wheat is turning out fine. Returns from thethreshers show averages of from 25 to 42bushels per acre. The western counties areputting the Red River valley in the shade. ItIs certainly a phenomenal crop. Our corn cropwill aggregate 20,000 bushels, which is Just16,000 more than we raised last year. Wardcounty mined and sold ,65,000 tons of; lignitecoal last year. We will ship twice that amountthis season. All of the new settlers are wellpleased with North Dakota. There is no,doubt but that in time Renville county tothe north will be reorganized. It containssome of the finest agricultural land in thestate. I believe that in time that part of thestate will be the banner wheat raising sec-tion." " ' x -

HEM FRUIT SHIPMENTSMINNEAPOLIS''„. RECORD BROKEN

The Market Evidently- a, Favorite

One , With , California•'•'Growers.;

The ; fruit auction yesterday morningclosed a record-breaking week in'the.fruitbusiness in Minneapolis so far as Pacificcoast fruits are concerned. The . Com-mercial Bulletin says: ;, ' - •

The total receipts of west coast fruits atMinneapolis for the week were 44 cars atan estimated value of $60,000. , This wasten, cars better than the average receipts' forthis time of the year, and was five cars bet-ter than any previous week in the historyof the Minneapolis market. In view of thefact that west coast fruits have been in com-paratively light supply throughout the sea-| son, and that many eastern markets* havebeen unable to secure quantities required bythe trade, these heavy receipts at Minne-apolis, and the smashing of the best previousrecord of the quantity handled is highlysignificant. It indicates that west coast ship-pers have every confidence In the Minne-apolis market, and that they are preparedto give the preference to this market intheir shipments.

During the present week evidence was notlacking to show that this confidence was notmisplaced. While the market is lower onpeaches, plums and grapes than last week,the decline was a nominal one and there waspractically -no slump In prices, due to heavyofferings of fruit. -

Of the fruits received peaches, pears andgrapes sold with the greatest readiness.Peaches took a decline averaging about 25cents from previous prices, and sold at fairlymoderate figures, in • view of the condition ofthe supply. Grapes also eased off nominallyand have been in good request. Bartlett pearswere practically no lower, although the sup-ply was \u25a0 materially increased. The only poorarticle on the list was California plums.

In addition to the very heavy receipts ofwest coast fruits the market has been un-usualy well supplied with southern peachesand grapes, which have eased off in pricesomewhat but which have sold readily.

Apples Will Be High.

It is the general opinion of the large appledealers along Sixth, street that the marketon late varieties of winter apples will be thehighest known in a number of; years. Themarket on early varieties has :: been from $1to $1.50 a Barrel higher than a year ago, andabout $2 higher than in years when there hasbeen an average crop. Late varieties of appleswill begin to arrive ,in this' market withinten days to two weeks, but the "supplythroughout the season promises to be unusu-ally light.

THE WESTMINSTER'S BOY CHOIR

Howard B. Chamberlain Resign.

After Five Years' Faith-ful Service.

'.' Howard B. Chamberlain has resignedthe directorship of Westminster boy choirwhich he organized nearly five years ago.The members of the choir were not awareof the fact until last night when the an-nouncement was made at the fourth an-nual reunion held at the residence of Mr.and Mrs., Chamberlain. The occasionwhich is usually one of joy and mirth be-came a rather tearful affair whenPresident Edward H. Williams read theletter in which Mr. Chamberlain expressedhis determination because of the increas-ing press of personal business affairs tosever his connection with the organizationwhich he has so successfully directedsince its foundation. . _. \u25a0'\u25a0.'_.'.:.

President Williams expressed. to-daythe regret which the boys feel at the lossof the leader for whom they have formedan intense affection as follows: . ."_'"/_-'

"The boys feel very badly indeed to loseone whom they so dearly loved. Whenthe resignation was read last eveningthere was not a single dry eye among theboys and some even broke down com-pletely. Mr. Chamberlain has been withus since our organization, and has donea work to be proud of. But now thetender-heartedness and kindness, thesimplicity and sincerity which have beencharacteristic of Mr. Chamberlain's deal-ings with us will be missed. *--;".

"The prospect is not. the brightest, as| the session of Westminster church havej done their best for the last month, to se-cure a worthy successor but their efforts

Jhave been unavailing. The regular re-jhearsals will be held on Friday evenings,instead of Saturday and I shall see thatwe have a director until the session issuccessful in its efforts.

"I understand that Mr. Chamberlainhas handed in his resignation as directorof the Bethlehem church choir to take ef-fect Oct. l.and that he has, already severedhis relations as director of music at theY. M. C. A. Mr". Chamberlain has alsogiven up charge of the Sunday schoolsinging at Westminster, but will continueto lead at the Thursday evening prayerservice. His work at Riverside chapel asdirector of the Sunday school, of churchservice music and of the chorus choir wasdropped some time past."

At last night's reception Mrs. F. A.Warner assisted Mrs. Chamberlain in re-ceiving. The Misses Phillips and MissFrances D. Chamberlain served refresh-ments. The first part of the evening wasgiven up to singing the old songs and

iplaying of games. Later Mr. Chamber-lain's resignation was read and the mem-bers of the choir when remarks werecalled for individually expressed theirBorrow and regret at the dissolution ofpleasant relations land urged that theboys hold together and keep up the or-ganization. Then the success of the choirwas pledged in lemonade.

Westminster boy choir has made itsmark in local musical circles. In addi-tion to taking charge of the church atmusic at Westminster during vacation ofthe r regular choir, concerts have been

Igiven twice a year. The boys own a

I complete camping outfit and every sum-mer have taken an outing in charge ofMr. and Mrs. Chamberlain. The member-ship four years ago was nine. At therpesent time the limit Is forty with tenapplications on file in case of a vacancyThe members of the choir will be en-

tertained by Mrs. Millard Bowen in Ken-wood on Friday.

tt Pease Bros, makers of Men's FineClothes announce that their new importa-tions for fall and winter are now in.

Marine Boiler Inspection.Lloyd's register inspects marine boil-ers when new, again at four years, at six

years and then annually; they are, how-ever, supposed to be inspected every, threemonths by the chief engineer of the ves-sel. This illustrates how important are jthe internal workings of a great ocean jship. Human internal workings are quite,'as likely to get out of order and should be !kept up by regular and moderate use of |"Golden Grain Belt" beer.

\u25a0 -President A. J. Earling of the Milwau-kee, road, puts a quietus on all reportsabout impending changes in \u25a0 passengerservice which would be detrimental to jMinneapolis by reiterating a former state-"ment that Minneapolis and St. Paul are tocontinue';. to receive equal' passengerservice from ;the Milwaukee by the di-vision ;of trains at Mendota. • -:in{I .The.'report. has been current that theMilwaukee intends .to alter the routing ofits : lowa and Minnesota division trainsimmediately following • the ?• completion of:the; Burlington, Cedar Rapids & Northernconnections for entering the twin cities.This reportl came 1from persons Invt therailway . mail service who "usually- knowabout such proposed changes In:advanceof others.- . .\,"-.; ,-r^-. .;,.; gThe Cedar Rapids road jwill use the Mil-waukee tracks from a point; just: northof Faribault to Rosemoun:. -From:thenceit.Is building northeast- ; to Newport;* the •

: \u25a0 i^ \u25a0>.-;"* ; .--:..;".'\u25a0:\u25a0 j*:Jfr'-ivV'The change' which, the Milwaukee was

said to have in view was to run the lowa& Minnesota division trains Iby way ofNewport over the Burlington, Cedar Rap-ids & ; Northern to >-.Rosemount and ' onsouth over their own line, returningtrains to take the same route. !

By the present arrangement, the Mil-waukee divides its • incoming trains atMendota, bringing the Minneapolis car tothe city direct while the remainder of the ,train goes on to St. 1 Paul." * Minneapolisbaggage and mall is transferred at Men-dota. For the outgoing trains a stub trainis run from Minneapolis to "connect withthe main train from St. Paul. The ideaof the proposed change was to do awaywith the transfer at Mendota and allowthe company to run through trains toMinneapolis. This would result in Min-neapolis being made 1 the end of the runfor incoming trains and all outgoing trainswould start from here Instead of fromSt.' Paul. But the main objection whichthe business men of Minneapolis have tosuch an jarrangement iis the one whichthey have made with much emphasis dur-ing the past few months, that by runningthe entire.train through St. Paul first thatcity gains an advantage over Minneapolisin securing a large number of people fromthe southern part of the state who comehere daily to transact business.. In thisparticular such a change would be a de-cided disadvantage to Minneapolis. .It isestimated, that the business \u25a0 which thiscity would lose by such an arrangementwould amount to $200,000 per year.

. President Earling has informed thebusiness men that instead of placing Min-neapolis at a disadvantage the Milwaukeewill give the city better service as soonas the Mankato extension to ; Rosemountis completed. It is the Intention of theroad at that time to divide the trains atMendota, Instead of switching a single

car for this city and to do all. possible togive Minneapolis the same service as St.Paul. - . . \u25a0•- -..-. '\u25a0':'

ALD. LANE 'AGIN' ITDoesn't Want West Side Jumbo

V Pump Moved

BUT IT WILL LIKELY BE DONE

Aid. Peterson Would Issue $500,000in \u25a0 Bond- for Water

Purposes.

There will be no minority report fromthe .waterworks committee of the councilrelative to the transfer of one of theWest Side jumbo pumps to the Northside. station, and there is small doubt thatthe committee's action recommending thetransfer will be indorsed by the city coun-cil at to-night's meting. Alderman Lanestill stands out against the removal propo-sition but he will' not go to the extentof presenting a minority report as wasfirst thought probable. He will put him-self on record in the matter, however, bya written statement to the council settingforth his views . and showing in detailthe grounds on which he bases his refusalto be a party to the project for the addi-tion a third pump to the equipment atthe North Side station. There he will-lethte matter rest. Said Alderman Lane:

I,will make ho efforts to prevent the adop-tion of the majority report, but I will insistrpon stating my case to the council and hav-ing it on the records. I believe it is a mis-take'to put another pump at the North Sidestation \u25a0-, With both of the present pumpsthere working full capacity the reservoir canbe kept full without another pump, and Ifme of them breaks down there wi'l stillremain . the necessity of using the West' Sidestation, as the Jumbo pump is of but 7,000,000gallons capacity.

Alderman Peterson will to-night intro-duce a resolution calling for favorable ac-tion by the council oi. i_e proposition tosubmit to the ?people at the next electionthe question of issuing $500,000 in bondsfor water purposes, $150,000 to be expend-ed in enlarging the distribution systemand the remainder to provide a filtrationplant In connection with the reservoir.. Outside of the water department mattersthee; hief interest in to-night's meetingwill doubtless be centered on the mayor'srecent vetoes of the bridge and permanentimprovement jbond resolutions. There isa disposition among some of the aldermento compromise with the mayor by stand-ing by him on the bridge bond measureand passing the -other matter over hisveto. He will not be present to-night aswas promised, being delayed in Louisvillelonger than Ihe expected. His seethingcritlcsm of City Clerk Lydiard is said,however, to have been prepared before themayor's departure and will be presented tothe city council to-night.

I Congressman Eddy Does Not Believe j

\ the Speaker Has Scored

a Point.

The doubting Thomases who have refusedto believe that M. J. Dowling has con-gressional aspirations should visit theoffice of the secretary of state.

The speaker of the house has filed hieaffidavit and paid his fee of $25, whichentitles him to go on the primary elec-tion ballot in the new seventh districta year from next September. ...;iBJ§B§

; The Dowling affidavit is the first to-befiled under the new primary law. The rea-son for the speaker's haste is bis theorythat the first candidate to file will havehis name at the head of the list on all, the ballots. He does not believe that

i the'law, as it stands provides for any -ro-tation. The name first on the ballot has adecided advantage.

Congressman Eddy, who was in St. Paulyesterday, was surprised to learn thatDowling had filed. He does not believethat it will be any advantage, however, asin his opinion the candidates will all standat the head of the list on an equal numberof ballots. ____i_»f____i_____HHff

SHOULD BE "FIBED"What R. C. Dunn, the Editor, Says

of Normal Board.

HIS ADVICE TO THE GOVERNOR

Messrs. Douglas, Dunn and Van

Sant Hold a Conference

About—l

R. C. Dunn, state auditor, has nothingmore to say about the trouble betweenthe board of control and the state normalschool board, but R. C. Dunn, proprietorof the Princeton Union, is after the nor-mal board with a particularly vigorouspeu.

Mr. Dunn was in Princeton this week,

and • did some editorial work. Returningto his desk this morning, he brought withhim a copy of his paper with a columneditorial in it, which makes the spiciest

sort of reading. After reviewing the his-tory of the trouble, he says:. ,If Governor Van Sant were to do his duty

he would remove from office Immediately theobstructionists on- the normal school boardand replace them with men who would obeythe law; men who would respect the well-defined Intention of the people's direct repre-sentatives—the legislature. The idea of j a lit-tle one-horse board of the ' governor's ownappointing attempting to nullifyan act of thelegislature, attempting to set at naught alaw specially recommended by the governor,is ridiculously absurd! B___l

Already the board of control has accom-plished splendid work. In( the matter of In-surance alone the board has saved the state

thousands of dollars. In the chase of fuela large . saving has also been effected. .Themen composing the board of control are hon-est and fearless, and will do • their ; entireduty. Iftho board of control Is properly sup-ported, the results accomplished will morethan justify the expectations of these who fa-vored its creation. It is the plain duty of theadministrative officers of the state to standby the board of control and refuse to aidand abet grafters and superannuated fossilsIn defying Its authority and nullifyingthe in- !tention of the legislature.

In another column Mr. Dunn gives thegovernor another pointer, saying:, • i

The board df control measure was an ad-ministration measure. It was largely owingto Governor Van Sant's influence that themeasure became a law. Is , Governor VanSant going to permit his appointees on thenormal school board to negative his efforts bynullifying the provisions of the law?VWeknow what Knute Nelson, D. M. Clough orJohn Llnd would do under like circumstances., Governor Van Sant, State Auditor Dunnand Attorney General Douglas had an ex-tended conference this. morning, but de-clare that It had . nothing to do: with thenormal board; and Governor Van Sant dis-misses the. subject with a laugh.

. The program of the administration? issaid to call for an amendment to the boardof control bill at; the extra session nextwinter, to make the title'embrace the ed-ucational Institutions.

NO'EXCUSE. ,Glascow Times.

GRAIN RATES INCREASEDRAILROADS HELP THE MILLERS

An Increase of One and a Half CentsPutin Export Flour on a

Better Basis.

Officials of the Twin City-Chicago linesmet in St. Paul yesterday to.take action onthe request of the Minneapolis millersfor relief from the present discrimina-tion against flour rates in behalf of wheat.The railroads agreed to Increase the rateon grain, Minneapolis to Chicago, from 6cents to 7*_ cents. . They claim that theincrease of 1_ cents will relieve the dis-crimination, and put flour for export on amore equitable basis. While this Is trueto some extent, it will probably not sat-isfy the millers. The railroads claim thatby a recent ruling of the interstate com-merce commission, they are permitted to"hold grain rates 2 cents lower than flourrates. The 7»_-cent rate will apply toall lake ports. .

From Minneapolis to the head of thelakes the rate will-be 4".cents.

EDWIN P. HILTON DEADOld Minneapolis . Inipressario >J Sue-

Edwin P. Hilton, an old time theatricalmanager of this city, is lying dead in thecounty hospital in Chicago. His death wasdue to a stroke of apoplexy which seizedhim just as he was signing a contract onthe stage of Power's theater, to "goahead" of Blanche Bates in "Under TwoFlags" during the coming season. .

Edwin P. Hilton was a resident of thiscity and of St. Paul for many years. Atvarious times he managed the Olympic

theater in the down-river town for' PatConiey, now county assessor; the TheaterComique in this' city for Captain Brown;and afterwards the Pence opera-house,on his own account. More recently hetook several companies out on the road.At the time of his death he was stagemanager 1 of Powers theater, Chicago.

Hilton was a genial, whole-souled fel-low, and was well liked here. He was>generous to a fault, a trait that usuallykept him without much cash, as in hisassociation with.theatrical people, he fre-quently was asked to help. out unfortu-nates, and always -. responded cheerfully,:

LIGHT AS AN "EXTRA"IN MINNEAPOLIS OFFICE BUILDING

Managers Get" Together and Decide'''. That Tenants Are Too

"Wasteful.

- Tenants in a number of the prominentoffice buildings of the city will find a slipattached to their monthly rent bills noti-fying .them that on and after Nov. 1,electric and gas lighting will not be fur-nished free but will be paid for by thetenant. "'\u25a0 \u25a0 ' . .-vi.ViW'

This new departure appears to be inline .with the customs of similar buildingsin other cities. In an interview with themanager of one of the prominent officebuildings, The Journal was informedthat in cities such as Chicago, Detroit,and Boston, tenants. all pay for theirlighting, whether furnished from thebuilding's own plant or when taken fromoutside sources.-.

The service demanded by tenants now ismuch .greater than in former years, andthe expense of furnishing it has grownvery rapidly till now in the prodigal wayIt is used it is said to be equal to about15 per cent of thet^totalt cost of opera-tion, yet there has been no appreciableadvance in rents to meet it.

The managers of the principal officebuildings appear to have gotten togetheron this proposition, as the notices re-ferred to have been sent out by managersof such buildings as the Guaranty Loan,the New York Life, the Andrus, theTemple: Court, the Minnesota Loan andTrust and the Boston block. The 5 planhas always been in operation in the Lum-ber Exchange, the Kasota, and the Bankof Commerce buildings. • \u25a0-"\u25a0•»'

rAN ORGANIZATION OF MINN. VETERANSIt VMI Be Formed Wednesday Next at the State Capitol—History of

i the Various Regiments From Minnesota Who Fought•;in the Civil War.

Forty years ago, when the civil waropened, Minnesota possessed, probably,about the same number of white inhab-itants as are now within the limits of thecity of Minneapolis—in round numbers,200,000 and these were scattered onfarms and in primitive frontier villagesfrom Houston county on the southeastto St. Cloud on the north. Duluth hadbeen baptized but not peopled. Man-

kato and New Ulm were Insignificanthamlets—outposts of. civilization, so tospeakon' the extreme southwestern bor-der surrounded by bands of wild and un-tamable Sioux Indians, who one yearlater were to ; inaugurate one of the mostcold blooded and. barbarous massacreswritten in the annals of frontier butch-eries. There was not a mile of railroadIn the state, and all transportation wasby steamer on. the navigable streamsduring the summer season, by stages inthe winter, and by ox, mules and horse-teams all the year round. In 1861 Min-nesota imported wheat and flour for breadfor her pioneer children, the steamboatson their up-river trips being laden withflour from the mills of Wisconsin, Illinoisand lowa.

The scattered people of the state rep-resented all of the northern and some ofthe southern states of the union, whilemost of the towns numbered among theirthrifty citizens men and women of Irish,

German, Scandinavian and Canadianblood. ,

It1 was the sturdy sons of this hardypioneer stock who composed the 18,000volunteer soldiers who upheld the honorof the north star state in the southduring the trying period of the great re-bellion, and who during the same darkseason met and drove from our bordersthe most cruel and warlike tribe ofIndians native to the continent of Amer-ica. ;

Next .Wednesday. afternoon the sur-vivors of that Minnesota army will meetat the slate capitol in. St. Paul to form anorganization of Minnesota Veterans, andthe purpose of this article is briefly tooutline the military service performed byeach one of the Minnesota organizationsduring that stirring war period, and thusto show that this state,while sending intothe army a comparatively small numberof men, was in no sense behind the olderand more populous commonwealths eitherin patriotic ardor or In the maintenanceof the righteous cause for which, menfought and died In that dramatic andtragic period.

The First Regiment.

Alexander Ramsey—the only "war gov-ernor" of any state, north or south, whostill survives— to be in Wash-ington city when the news of the firingupon Fort Sumter reached the capitalof the nation, and it thus happened thatthe First Minnesota regiment of volun-teers was the very earliest offering madeto President Lincoln for the cause, of theunion. This tender of 1,000 men was madeby Governor Ramsey on the morning ofApril 14, 1861. On the 15th PresidentLincoln issued his call for 75,000 volun-teers, and notified Governor Ramsey thathis offer of 1,000 men was accepted. Thegovernor telegraphed Lieutenant Gover-nor Ignatius Donnelly to proceed at oncewith enlistment*, and on the 29th of Aprilthe First Minnesota volunteer Infantry1,046 officers and men—was mustered Intothe service of the United States. The:service of tho First was, from the open-ing to the close of the great struggle, withthe Army of the Potomac, in which fieldit achieved a reputation for courage, dis-cipline and endurance unsurpassed by thatof any; body of men In any war In history.The men who commanded the First dur-ing Its history, with the rank attained bythem, named In their order, were: WillisA. Gorman, brigadier general (dead); N.J. T. Dana, brigadier general (living);Alfred Sully, brigadier general (dead);George N. Morgan (dead); Wlllian Col-vllle (living). The original companies ofthe First were from St. Paul, Minneap-olis, Stillwater, Faribault, Hastings, RedWing, Wabasha and" Winona, althoughthere were men in the First from nearlyall of the settled counties of the state.

The Second Regiment.

The Second Minnesota regiment was au-thorized on the 14th day of June, 1861,and was immediately filled by ten com-panl, nearly all of which had hoped toserve with the First. The companies com-posing this regiment came chiefly fromFillmore, Olmsted, Dodge, Blue Earthand other southern, and southeasterncounties. From June until September,1861, the Second garrisoned frontier postsin the state. On the 14th of October theregiment started east under orders to pro-ceed to Washington, D. \u25a0<"*.- On the ar-rival of the regiment at Pittsburg a coun-termanding order was received changingthe destination of the regiment, and Itproceeded to Louisville, Ky., reporting toGeneral W. T. Sherman. In Decemberthe regiment was assigned to the Thirdbrigade of the First division, Army, of theOhio, and placed under command of Gen-eral Georgg. H. Thomas — whosecommand it continued to serve for threeyears. The Second had the honor of par-ticipating in the . first important victory

of the war, that of Mill Spring, Ken-tucky, where the confederate GeneralZollleoffer.was defeated and killed. Theregiment was in all the Important cam-paigns and many of the battles of Ken-tucky during its first three years of serv-ice, including Perryvttle," the. Cbicka-maujja campaign, doing more marching

and fighting than almost any regiment

In the United States service. In 1864 theregiment returned to the field in time toparticipate In the campaign against At-lanta, and crown its service by accom-panying Sherman In his celebrated marchacross the state of Georgia from Atlantato Savannah and thence up through theCarollnas— finally to participate inthe grand review in Washington at theclose of the war.

The commanders of the Second were asfollows: H. P. Van Cleve, brigadier gen-eral (dead); James George (dead*); J. W.Bishop, brevet brigadier general (living).The Second came through the strugglebearing the reputation of one of the bestregiments in the western army.

The Third Regiment.

The Third Minnesota infantry was or-ganized on the 15th of November, 1861,with 901 officers and men. Two dayslater it started for the southern battle-fields. It was ordered to Louisville, Ky.,and soon after arriving there was detailedfor picket and guard.duty at Shepherds-ville, Belmont, and points along theLouisville & Nashville railroad. Afterseveral • months of picket and drill duty,the Third was stationed, with severalother, organizations, at the town of Mur-freesboro, Term. On the 13th. of July,1862, General Forrest," the famous confed-erate cavalry commander, made a fescentupon Murfreesboro. After skirmishingwith the men of. the Third for a shorttime, he demanded that the command besurrendered. After consultation withsome of his officers. Colonel Henry C.Lester, in command of the regiment sur-rendered the Third and the men wereparoled upon the field. Later, after a fullinvestigation, Colonel Lester and the of-ficers who voted for the surrender wereignominously dismissed from the service.The men, and such of the officers as hadcounseled fight were sent back to Minne-sota .where the regiment was reorganized,and participated in the campaign againstthe ! Indians in i; Minnesota and Dakota.The Third was at the battle of Wood Lakeand both officers and men .distinguishedthemselves in that severe contest againstthe Sioux Indians. On the 16th of Jan-uary, 1863, the regiment was reorganized,and having been* duly exchanged,' took jitsdeparture *again itor.« the south. *In sev-eral skirmishes ' and battles In Tennessee,notably, during this siege of Vicksburg, theThird had abundant 'opportunity •; to re-deem Itself, and ":lt*soon took rank asone %of -the X'famous fighting regiments'under. Grant's command. In July, 1863, it'was a "part of the comamnd of>, General,Steele in the *celebrated Arkansas ; cam-

paign, and it remained in that state forthe remainder of its first three years ofservice. In January and February iheThird regiments veteranized, and after avisit to its . home in Minnesota, returnedand continued to the end of the war to doduty west of the Mississippi in various jparts of Arkansas. It was discharged atFort Snelling. Sept. 16, 1865. J

The commanders of the Third were:Henry. C. Lester, dismissed from the serv-ice; Chauncey W. Griggs, resigned, July,15, 1863, (living); C. C. ; Andrews, brevetmajor general (living); Hans Mattson(dead). : ' A- ;:

The Fourth Regiment.

The Fourth Minnesota volunteer . in-fantry was organized during 'the fall of1861 from companies enlisting from theMinnesota valley and northward towardGlencoe and St. Cloud. During thewinter of 1861-2 the regiment was splitinto • details, guarding the frontier, postsagainst. Indiana. On the 20th of April,1862, the' regiment left Fort Snelling, bysteamer, having been ordered to report toGeneral Halleck at St. Louie. After a fewdays spent at Benton barracks, the regi-ment was ordered to western-Kentuckyas part of the First brigade/Third divisionof the Army of. the Mississippi. Its firstserious service was seen at the siege ofCorinth,'and later it was a participant inthe battles of luka, Corinth, and in thecampaign down the Central Railroad ofMississippi. It was with Grant, at thosiege of Vicksburg. It was under fire atthe battle of Champion Hills in the as-sault on Vicksburg, and at 'the battle ofChattanooga, gaining fresh laurels Inevery engagement. In 1864 it "veteran-ized, and was back in time to get intothe thickest of the battle of Altoona. InSherman's march to the sea It was in thethird division of the Fifteenth corps, andcontinued with Sherman in the Carolinacampaign. It again distinguished itselfin the battle of Bentonville. and marchedwith Sherman's triumphant "Bummers"in the grand review at Washington tocelebrate the coming of peace.

The commanders of the Fourth were:John B. Sanborn, brevet major general(still living):= John E. Tourtellotte, lateran officer In the regular army.

The Fifth Regiment.

The Fifth Minnesota volunteer infan-try was" the last Minnesota regimentraised under President Lincoln's first callfor 500,000 men. It Was recruited dur-ing the winter months of 1861-2, and itsfirst duty was to garrison the frontierposts. It was while performing this mo-notonous but necessary duty that the In-

outbreak came, and during the ter-rible scenes of that summer of horrors,the Fifth was the main reliance of thesettlers on the Minnesota frontier. Of-ficers and men of this regiment were atthe siege of Fort Ridgely, at the battleof Redwood, and in the siege of FortAbercrombie. In May, 1862, seven com-panies of the Fifth were ordered to thesouth, and were with General Pope In thefield before Corinth, and in the battle ofluka and the second battle of Corinth. Itmarched in the campaigns through centralMississippi and western Tennessee, andwas with Grant at the siege and sur-render of Vicksburg. After the regimenthad "veteranized" It participated in theRed river expedition and was at the bat-tles of Pleasant Hill, Mansura and Bayoude Glalse. It was one summer In a cam-paign through Arkansas and Missouri, andafter chasing Price and Van Dorn out ofthe country, the .Fifth was ordered tojoin General Thomas at Nashville, whereit arrived Nov. 30, 1863, in time to immor-talize themselves, by one of :the ;mostcelebrated charges of the whole,civil war.This charge has often been recounted andall accounts agree that It was secondonly to Pickett's immortal charge againstMeade's lines at Gettysburg. The Fifth,under command of Colonel Hubbard, led inthis, celebrated action.

Later the Fifth was in the trenches be-fore Mobile and at the assault on Span-ish Fort and Blakely. On the twelfthof April, 1865, Mobile surrendered and thework of the Fifth was done.

The commanders of the Fifth were:Rudolph Borgesrode, resigned Aug. 31,1862; Lucius F. Hubbard, brevet brigadiergeneral (living). ____

The Sixth, Seventh, Eighth, Ninth andTenth Minnesota regiments of volunteerinfantry"" were organized at the sametime under President Lincoln's call for600,000 men—during the summer of 1862.The process of recruiting was in fullswing, when, in August, 1862— a pealof ,thunder from a clear sky, came theSioux Indian outbreak, which painted onevast flame of barbarous war along theentire frontier of the state, from Alexan-dria, following the line of the "Big"Woods south to the lowa line. As fastas companies were filled, they werestarted pell mell for some endangeredsettlement on. the frontier, the union intoregiments being postponed. Out of thestate's possible 200,000 population, 6,000of the cream of its young manhood wasalready on southern battle fields. Another5,000 sprang immediately to arms for thedefense of the frontier. ,-.

The history of the Sixth regiment com-mences with the thrice-told tale of thebattle of Birch Coolie. While about 150men of the Sixth were sleeping— 4o'clock in the morning of the 2d of Sep-tember. 1862—they were surprised bymore than 500 savages. The brave men ofthe Sixth held the savage foe at bay forover twenty-four hours, without food orwater, until relieved by comrades of theirregiment, and by hastily organizedmilitia. During that twenty-four hourstwenty-three of the 150 were killed andforty-five wounded—a casulty list ofnearly 50 per cent.

Th© Sixth continued to do service in the? ™

war—participating in the battleof Wood Lake, and the rescue of Indiancaptives at Camp Release during thesummer of 1862. The regiment was or-ganized in October of that year. The com-panies were then scattered throughout thewidely exteneded frontier for garrisonduty during the winter. In April, 1863.the regiment Joined the Sibley expedition

\u2666«n "T°i.he Missouri river driving the hos-tile Indians before them away from thesettlements; and after discharging- thisduty, again became guards of the frontierduring the winter of 1863-4.

NEED TO BE PARTIALCommercial; West's View of "The

Minneapolis Railway Policy" •

ANSWERED BY F. F LINDSEY

The Charge of Partiality In Favorof Competitors of the "Omaha".

the Points. '

F. F. Lindsey of the railway and tele- igraph committee of the Commercial Clubmakes answer" to an editorial in ' the

Commercial West of to-day, entitled"The Minneapolis Railway Policy. He

handles the charge of partiality towardother lines as against the Omaha as fol-

• In to-day's Issue the Commercial West,. Inreferring to i our controversy with the Omaharoad," calls attention to the fact that this city

treated the Wisconsin, Central liberally, im-plying that it should. therefore do the samewith the Omaha. It.must be borne In mind

that the conditions under which the two roadscome before the city asking for favors are en-tirely different. " The Wisconsin Central rail-way, Ialthough largely ' a Chicago •road, ad-

heres to the policy of treating the shipping

interests of; Minneapolis and St. Paul fairly.

Its line runs ..directly, towards Chicago, orrather immediately, into what Is known asChicago territory, and yet Its rates are equit-

ably adjusted -between the twin cities andChicago. Furthermore, it is not a large roadlike the Omaha-North-Western system,^hav-ing lines penetrating all parts of the north-west, and were It disposed to work against

us, as is the -case with the North-Westernsystem, its efforts could amount to but lit-tle; however. It has -always shown -a i dis-position to be ; fair in this matter of rates,

and our shippers know, of : many instanceswhere It has Instated on putting In reducedrates in the face of emphatic opposition and.objections on the part of the Omaha-North-Western company and ; other, stronger, lines.The Wisconsin Central line does not extendinto territory beyond Minneapolis, as does theOmaha-North-Western system, and maintainan adjustment of rates 'so outrageously, un-fair as to clearly show that It Is • doing allIn Its power to shut these cities out of suchterritory, if such a thing were possible. TheWisconsin Central Is not, and does not pre-tend' to be great distributing line for thetwin cities,:' as is Claimed by the Omaha-North-Western '\u25a0, company, and yet so far .asits line is concerned where our merchants at-tempt, to do: business. Its rates are fair andreasonable, and there Is no apparent favorit-ism shown Chicago shippers. ' * - JT.'.-

On the other hand, one of the leadingclaims: to consideration ;on the part of theOmaha-North-Western company Is that it :Isa: great distributing line affording a largeterritory in which Minneapolis and St. Paulmerchants do business. It fails, however, toadd that ' the ' territory ". which Itioffers \u25a0; Ispenetrated by ;: Minneapolis - and '-\u25a0 St. ;' Paulshippers In spite of the efforts or policy ofthat system to \ hold it;open only to Chicagoand closed so far as these cities are con-cerned. \u25a0'.'.•\u25a0/'-'-r.. '•'i.-'V;"\u25a0-..' \u25a0--",': V'v\."

The -Wisconsin Central's chief claim Is thatit is a line to and from'the east affording ourshippers of eastbouad commodities and thoseof westbound,merchandise an additional lineand: route over which they may do business,and! all ; shippers well know its: liberal policyIn '. the , matter of . rates. •-'\u25a0 Its policy has ;beento get \u25a0 business' to and • from these cities viaMilwaukee and * Manitowoc: and Its lake andacrost-lake >routes. The well known policyof the ? Omaha-North-Western system, espe-cially as regards merchandise, is to maintainprohibitive ;rates If• possible, " and compel theconsumers' of the northwest to deal with, orthrough Chicago.X If the Omaha-North-West-ern' officials suspect the Wisconsin Central ofhaving " reduced *or 'of- intending tor- ——rates for. the:benefit of;twin city traffic, theyvery

tquickly use,their influence to force that

company, or any other weaker line, to with-draw t the J favorable rates. , The WisconsinCentral is .'engaged at the < present ; time inpreparations for the making of ' this\ city itsterminus Jin "j fact' as .well's as ;In, theory. TheOmaha company claims.this to be a' terminus,and IsIobligated '" under its ' charter; from j.thestate to 'own?and \ operate ' a \ line from" Minne-apolis te-Shakopee, but nevertheless Is lack-

THE M__NNEAPOLIS JOTON__K,

I Ing"absolutely in all that would constitute aterminal for.that company. \u25a0'-.-\u25a0'\u25a0. j.

I So far as the shipping interests of the twincities are concerned the Wisconsin Central isa, willing factor in adding to and advancingour commercial prosperity; the North-West-ern an unwillingfactor, having always done,and still continuing to do, all in its powerto prevent or destroy the commercial prosper-ity of Minneapolis and St. Paul..

Therefore, ..knowing and considering thepolicy of the two roads, can it be said thatthey should receive the same treatment fromthis city? To afford roads like the Soo, theMinneapolis & St. Louis, the Wisconsin Cen-tral terminal facilities and opportunity fordrawing more liberally from the traffic offeredby Minneapolis shippers means an increasein the number of their general office or shopemployes who spend their earnings here, buyreal estate, rent houses, patronize our mer-chants and build up the city generally. Toafford better terminal facilities for the Oma-ha-North-Western system means the strength-ening of an enemy, the building up of a sys-tem that is against us. It means the send-ing of money collected from our shippers infreight charges to St. Paul or to Chicago tobe spent by shop and general office em-ployes in those cities instead of in Minne-

:polls. It is considered by many at leastJ that the time has come when instead of af-fording a strong opposing factor in our busi-ness fabric additional, opportunity for oppos-ing us and shutting out friendly lines or atleast making It more difficult for them to as-sist us, that it Is better to begin closing thedoor to such institutions and lend our aid

:and grant, our favors to those lines whichreciprocate.

Manager Rourke of the Omaha, memberOf the Western league thinks that histown Is getting in too fast company whenit tries to stay in the same-league asMinneapolis, St. Paul and Kansas City;and inspires a story to the effect thatthe twin cities may.be dropped from' theleague and that George Tebeau will leaveKansas City for Denver where he is stillin control. Rourke is no expansionistand still believes that last , year's circuitWith Sioux City, Dcs Moines and Puebloare fast enough for Omaha. It-is pos-sible, however, that the Omaha fans area little more progressive and ambitiousand will resent Mr. Rourke's efforts tocut out- the big cities in the league. -

Rourke Intimates that there is lack ofharmony in the league, but as the "onlynew magnate is George Lennon of St, Paulit cannot be that expansion is the causeof the dissension.**

Manager Hulen of the Colorado Springsteam who has Just bought out his part-ner, Tim Donahue, has asked the consentof the other members of the league to atransfer of the franchise to a Mr, Burns.Tho latter ;is a wealthy miner and is ac-ceptable to the others.

But one game was played in the West-ern league yesterday, a postponed gameat Denver. The opposing team was themillionaire band from Colorado Springs.It was badly • disorganized and ManagerHulen had to pick up two Denver men tofill out his nine. The score:

GAME QUITE PLENTIFULCHICKEN SEASON OPENS MONDAY

Report- From South and "West Say

the Country la AliveWith Birds.

The hunting season in-Minnesota andthe Dakotas opens to-morrow andlocal sportsmen have been mak-ing preparations for the past weekfor their annual outing with dogand gun. Reports at the . outfitting istores show that chickens are • unusuallyplentiful this year, the dry weather of theearly summer having been just what theyoung birds needed.

The southern part' of the state is said tobe fairly alive with the feathered game,and birds are reported to be numerousalong the Great Northern and NorthernPacific lines between here and Morris.From the Dakotas comes the same story.Game Is plentiful everywhere, and sports-men are looking forward to an unusuallygood season. ' \

A party made up of members of theMinneapolis club will leave for the west-ern part of the state to-night andexpect to be able to send enoughchickens home to supply the guests of theclub who will attend the dinner to begiven to Vice President Roosevelt.

The very fact that game is so plentifulhas rather discouraged the formation oflarge hunting parties, and for the mostpart the local men will go out accom-panied by only one or two friends.. Theydo not have to go far this year, and con-sequently large parties will be the excep-tion.

A number of Chicago, sportsmen stoppedin Minneapolis this morning on their waywest. They had intended to go to Aber-deen, but when informed that game wasplenty in Minnesota, changed their mindsand left for Morris, Minn. • From - therethey expect to drive out a. distance ofabout seventy-five miles by wagon. Theycarry, their own tents and cooking uten-sils, and each man. has his dog with him.The dogs were allowed to run about theMilwaukee depot this morning, and oneof them was knocked down by a parsingInterurban car, but was not Injured. Therewere seven men in the party.

PRESSURE ON SALISBURYUnionist Leaders Work to Prevent

His Relre~ient. 'London, Aug. 81.—The rumors of Lord

Salisbury's retirement are due to the ex-istence of agitation within • the premier'sown family that he take the step in or-!der to preserve his health. His sons anddaughters believe the strain of conduct-ing the affairs of the empire Is hound toshorten his life. In this they have beenopposed by several less closely relatedmembers of the Cecil family and almostall the leaders of the unionist party. Thelatter, so far as can be learned, are like-ly to prevail, for the present at any rats,in their contention that relief from thsduties of premier, would "be a very, doubt-ful benefit to Lord Salisbury's healthwhich just now is not band,i consideringhis age. The unionists admit that the:selection of a successor to I Lord Salis-bury perhaps would precipitate an internalstruggle. Hence the extreme and, as someof the members of Lord Salisbury's fam-ily- consider, almost inhuman pressure onthe premier \u25a0to retain . power, which forhim has lost all attraction. '.;'-;

"£';;? v

A party made up of members of theMinneapolis club will leave for the west-ern part of the state to-night . andexpect to be able to send enoughchickens home to supply the guests of theclub who will attend the dinner to begiven to Vice President Roosevelt.

The very fact that game is so plentifulhas rather discouraged the formation oflarge hunting parties, and for the mostpart the local men will go out accom-panied by only one or two friends.. Theydo not have to go far this year, and con-sequently large parties will be the excep-tion.

They had intended to go to Aber-deen, but when informed that game wasplenty in Minnesota, changed their mindsand left for Morris, Minn. - From v-therethey expect to drive out a- distance ofabout seventy-five miles by wagon.

Boston, Aug. 31.—Alonzo J. Whitman,former lawyer, one time mayor of Dv-

I luth, Minn., former state senator in Min-nesota and an unsuccessful candidate forcongress from that state, was arrestedhere yesterday as he was coming outof a banking house.

A few days ago he is said to havecalled on William Hunt & Co., * No. 66State street. He told Mr. Hunt he hadbeen doing business with Halght &Freeseand that he had 100 shares of UnitedStates steel common stock, valued at$4,000, on deposit with- that concern. Hesaid, it is alleged, that he had $2,000 inthe Brookline .bank, that his name wasCarl Goodwin Burdlck, and that he livedin Dearborn street, Brookline. .

He said he would like to transfer hisaccounts to Hunt's concern. and •do busi-ness with him. He gave Hunt a checkfor, $2,000 on the Brookline bank, andpromised to deposit his stock with himfor security. He then said he was in ahurry to do .some speculation, and I wouldlike some money. He had given his checkfor $487.50. Ik was on the Beacon Trustcompany, d|M Aug. 20. , Immediately hegot the cas-EM". disappeared from Hunt'splace. Upofl^BMßigation it was devel-oped that *-]_HHKk for $2,000 on theBrookline bdflH worthless, and thatWhitman did OR have any steel stock.; -

Thursday he went to the banking houseof Armstrong, Schirmer & Co., and saidhe -would like to open an account there.His operation • was ; the same as in the'case of Hunt & Co. He said his name wasGeorge D. Prentiss. He made a depositof a check for $3,000 on• the , Brooklinebank, signed George D. Prentiss. " :,' r

As : Monday -is \ a holiday, the checkwould; not "; have been j)returned, \u25a0" and the

.fact that it was worthless would not havebeen discovered until jTuesday.* afternoon.This would have given him Tuesday, fore-noon to carry out :his scheme. ; , .

Last night bail for his release was jfixedat $6,000. The 'police do not. think he cfsecure that amount. : - V, - / ,' *

PRESSURE ON SALISBURYUnionist Leaders Work to Prevent

His Reirement.London, Aug. 31.—The rumors of Lord

Salisbury's retirement are due to the ex-istence of agitation within • the; premier"!own family that he take the step in or-der to preserve his health. His sons anddaughters believe the strain of conduct-ing the affairs of the empire is hound toshorten his life. In this they, have beenopposed by several less closely relatedmembers of the Cecil family and almostall the leaders of the unionist party. Thelatter, so far as can be learned, are like-ly to prevail, for the present at any rats,in their contention that relief from thsduties of premier, would foe a very doubt-ful benefit to Lord Salisbury's healthwhich Just now is not band, \ consideringhis age. The unionists admit that theselection of a successor to Lord -alls-bury perhaps. would precipitate an Internalstruggle. Hence the extreme and, as someof the members of Lord Salisbury's fam-ily consider, almost inhuman pressure •onthe -premier •to retain power, which forhim has lost all attraction. •\u25a0 •

SEASON'S BEST REALITY BARGAINS• Realty in MinneapolisV The opinions of real estate men as to the

r good or bad effect of selling real' estate at\u25a0 auction do not agree. Many are enthusi--. astic over the plan and 1 others hold honest,_ doubts as to the results.y D. W. Lane, a man of long experience,

has given the matter considerable thought;: He says: y^cy:

My opinion is that the sale of property at

auction In Minneapolis at the present time,

' when values are at the lowest point, tends.." to have a depressing effect on prices. ; I 'do'\u25a0' not believe: the; condition of our \u25a0 real estate

market at the present time' is right for suchj proceedings. The sale >of property at' auc-

tion'in' cities of this country, as I understandit,. has never been a success,', except, per-haps, in . one, * and - that is New °". York city,

• and r why there? "*"Simplyf because - there are\u25a0worlds of money "for; investment, and when

- property Is offered at auction there it brings

a fair price because there are a great many\u25a0 buyers and more money and \ cheaper jmoney

; than In any other city In- the land. I think| if we are to try. to'pattern after New York'. city in the real estate auction business," we

had better pass It up for a-while until ourI city is larger and the condition of the market

is different than at thsJ present time. I donot believe we can force . the real estate mar-

- ket or create a demand in that way.Minneapolis real estate values at the pres-

ent time are low, but I believe we are going

to increase gradually along good sound busl-nsss lines. I consider that the auction saleof real estate In this city, If It Is Intendedto boom the price or create a demand, will,Instead, have the opposite effect.

It makes no difference what the commodityis, teal estate, merchandise, wheat, corn, etc.,you cannot force ths price up by throwing it

: on the market at auction when you have tensellers to one buyer. In other words, theconditions are not right at the present time,and I don't believe the auction ever can bemade a success in a olty of our size.

A. \u25a0; E. Zonne, of the J. F. • Conklin &Eonne .company, consummated ' this weekthe moat Important real estate deal of theBummer. It was the purchase of the twohalf blocks of vacant property, at Eighthavenue 8 and Washington adjoining thetracks of the Milwaukee road. Mr. Zonnehas worked patiently on the , details for; nearly ." a -year and is worthy - of muchcredit In that he has successfully engin-eered the deal although the purchaseswere made from divers estates and inter-ests and the difficulties presented seemedat times insurmountable. The deeds whichhave -" been placed on record this week•how that at least $150,000 was involved.

At the present time the purpose of thedeal Is a mystery. Additional trackageand 'warehouse room for . the Milwaukeela suggested as also that some big firmswish to followthe lead of the Implementcompanies and put up warehouse. build-ings on the site. It Is certain, however,that the transfers will have an appreci-able effect on the surrounding vacantproperty. "

Edwin A. Thayer, of Thayer & Gale inthe New York Life building, notes achange of heart among eastern moneyedmen who visit Inthe west. For some timefarm mortgages have been sought by thisclass of capital, while city loans were ata discount, the change noted is a returnto city loan Investment. Said Mr. Thayer:"City values have been low and are boundto increase while farm land is at the top

notch. William Smith, assistant treas-urer of the Springfield, Vt,, Savings bank,which we represent, has just been hereand directed that in the future loans bemade principally on city property. Ourfirm represents the Jamaica Savings .bankof Vermont and the Bellows Falls Savingsinstitution of the same state. We havebeen in correspondence with these andother' eastern clients regarding somechanges in their investment from farm tocity loans. I think values in their realestate holdings here are lower than inother cities of like size, in which theymake investment and (they feel thatprices are sure to advance." Unlike someof the eastern life Insurance and Invest-ment institutions which are representedIn the olty, Thayer & Gale's clients havetoot taken their Minneapolis holdings outof the market. In many cases financialInstitutions have cut off sale entirely and

Technically described theproperty is lot 14, block 2, Eastman's ad-dition to Nicollet : Island. Upon this lotwhich lies to the south of Bridge streetbetween Wilder street and the steel archbridge | stands a four-story and basementbrick building. "*Mjp_j; The building is of 22x100 feet, of solidconstruction suitable for warehouse or

;manufacturing purposes. It would not besurprising If the side tracks of the GreatNorthern road on Main street were tocross the channel and Nicollet island.This would give an impetus to the lowerend of the island which has struggledalong without trackage and # would be themeans of establishing solid manufacturing

NEW OFFICE BLDG.L. S. Gillette Has a Ten-Story

Structure in Mind.

COR. THIRD ST. AND FIRST AY. N.

Idea In to Give Merchandise Broker.a Floe Home of Their

Own. . "\u25a0

Lewis S. Gillette, formerly; northwest-ern manager of the American Bridge corn-any, has been negotiating with, differentmerchandise brokers in the city for theuse of office room in an eight or ten-story building which he considers erectingon the lot at Third street and First ave-nue N, which he purchased some twomonths ago from A. A. Crane. The IdeaIs to concentrate this business in. the newbuilding. The lot is in the center of thewholesale and brokerage district and atpresent is occupied by a laundry. Thenew building will be of fireproof materialand will- cost \u25a0\u25a0 not less | than. $150,000. |ItIS understood that delay in the consum-mation of the plan is caused by the factthat out of -the 200 or more brokers whohave been communicated with, . the ma-"jority of those who will take quarterswish to be on either the first or -secondfloors. i'^'i'-'.f.'^'.'Js-. "i^t:^ ;'.•"'.;."\u25a0.-. 5,-?S-

The plan of Mr. Gillette Is received withmuch enthusiasm by the men who are di-rectly Interested in the concentration lofthe business in a single .building. Oneof the prominent brokers said: y - , /

The building proposed by Mr. Gillette is adecided necessity in this city and his buildingproposition should receive all possible en-couragement. Minneapolis Is the only largecity In the country which does not.' havesuch a building. ..St. Paul -is. better off thanwe v are, having the Drake block in whichthe brokerage interests are .concentrated. Iregard the site for this proposed structure asan ideal one It is central to all of thewholesale houses, and 'anyone who is ac-quainted with Mr. Gillette knows that he willprovide us with "a; substantial building andone that will be a credit to the city and toour business. The fact that he also hasseveral large warehouses is an added advan-tage to the brokers who propose to takeoffices In the new building. ?-.I have talked with a number of the local

jobbers concerning the project and theyare all heartily in favor of it. They thinkthe . brokerage interests have become ,so im-portant it is necessary that they be con-centrated at one point, and they feel that Itwould be a decided convenience to their firmsif the building were built.

r _ „FT TAC^r TITBITCANT LOSE HIM--THE TRAVELING MAN

An Army of 3,000 Commercial Travelers Re-quired for the Northwest—Even the Trusts

Can't Do Without Them.

There are 3,000 commercial travelers Inthe northwestern states. This is the lar-gest number of any year since the north-western trade has had a history. Mem-bers of the fraternity are confident thatthe commercial traveler is here to stay.They "nave completely recovered from theghosting of a few years ago, when therigidly multiplying trusts led some to be-lieve that something must be done atonce to stop the trust or the commercialtraveler would soon be forced to stopwork.

Pierre Lorillard, the late tobacco manu-facturer, Is credited with a statement thatis sure to become history among com-mercial travelers. When the tobaccotrust was born, Lorillard was quoted assaying that one benefit to trade wroughtby the trust was the "fading" of thetraveling man. America has numeroustrusts, but traveling men "point withpride" to their Increasing numbers. Theylook upon the trust as no friend of thefraternity. Its purpose is monopoly. Itis competition that begets the travelingman. \ . =-y

Away up In northwestern North Da-kota, In that new country Just formingthe acquaintance of the plow, is a placecalled Bisbee. A branch line train ofJ. J. Hill's makes Bisbee three times aweek. , The commercial traveler is not"cutting corners' 'as In the old days, butis "making" nearly every town, no mat-ter what may be the inconvenience. Thecommercial traveler who makes Bisbeemust use a team. As a result of thatcondition, there were for a time two com-peting •'" livery barns in. business there.The commercial-traveler on arriving atBisbee was formerly "tackled" as soonas he reached town by representatives ofeach of the -livery barns seeking the jobof driving him to the next town. Fourof the regular men who travel in thatcountry, on arriving at Bisbee a few daysago, were surprised to see no livery barnrepresentative In sight. One of the partywas so struck by the fact that he wentdown to the nearest barn to inquire. He s

found it closed. He went over to theother bam and found.the proprietor outin front enjoying himself with a pine stickand a jackknife. ''; '*- ";

"Where the dickens are these fly liverybarn agents that used to meet us at thetrain?" asked the commercial man.

The livery proprietor cut a few shavingsfrom his stick, spat at a near-by knot- ]hole and replied: yyy

"Wall, you see, competition was gittln'too keen. *We had to get together onsome kind of a deal to save expenses. * Sowe combined and fired our. traveling men.

I You fellows can come down to the barnafter this." - :^:^::- ''-'*\u25a0"

But the trusts have not fired all oftheir traveling salesmen. Those few like i

the sugar trust which have reachedsomewhere near a monopoly or absolutecontrol of the situation send no men tothe retail trade. But the largest trustAmerica has, the Standard Oil company,still employs a large number of road men.There is still enough competition in thatindustry to force the company to sendits missionaries to the trade instead oftelling the dealer to "come down to thebarn after this." It would be supposedthat with all of its wealth in money andfacilities, the Standard Oil company wouldbe in a position to do away with itstraveling force if it desired. But the ex-tensive line of oils and other products Itmanufactures, brings. It into competitionwith various other lines, and consequentlyits traveling salesmen visit every sectionof the continent. "Kerosene wars" causedby the Standard and an independent com-pany coming together hard in the racefor business are still a feature of the re-tall trade. As long as these conditionshold, the Standard Oil company must havetraveling men.-.:-;

No one industry in the palmy days ofthe Independent factory, employed moretraveling salesmen than the tobacco indus-try. Hundreds of tobacco men invaded thenorthwest at regular intervals. One mannow takes the merchants' orders for along list of brands represented formerlyby nearly as many different men. Therestill remain independent manufacturers oftobacco, and as long as they are in thefield the trust must employ a field force ofconsiderable numbers to look after Its in-terests. But the tobacco trade has seenits force of traveling men greatly reduced.

There are some merchants in the north-west who are advocates of a system oftrade which would" employ no - travelingsalesmen. Their argument Is that theexpense of soliciting business comes outof the profits of the retailer and the pock-ets of the consumer. In answer it is saidthat the tobacco trust is taken as a fairtest. - To-day the merchant makes lessmoney on his tobacco than in the old dayswhen the 'country, swarmed .with tobaccosalesmen.- The consumer pays as much forhis tobacco as In those days. The trustis "salting the velvet." Vy.yy

The Bulge of Prosperity.The wonderful bulge of prosperity which

the west: has experienced in the past fiveyears has brought the traveling salesmenInto great demand. Good -men who lostt-helr positions through the consolidationof big enterprises and the organization oftrusts have been in demand. \ To-day theman who,has demonstrated his success asa traveling salesman is > not crying for ajob. The manufacturer has eliminatedthe traveling salesman-in some Instances,but the business is being handled by thejobber and *he must' have traveling repre-

sentatlves. New territory is beingopened by immigration and development,each man's territory is being confined tosmaller area, new houses are enteringthe field, and the trade is being canvassedmore closely. All this has required theaddition of more commercial 'travelers tothe 'staff of nearly every house in thewest. The jobbers are making money andthe salesmen are doing well.

Plenty of Competition'

Where there are traveling salesmenthere is competition. Throughout thenorthwest there are numerous inlandstores.far removed from railroads. Thetime was when traders in this class ofstores would send in mail orders or go tomarket occasionally.. No inland store is now too far removedto escape the commercial traveler andhis team. On the other hand competitionIs so keen that the merchant sends infewer mail orders.

O. C. Wyman, of Wyman, Partridge &Co., is a firm believer In the travelingsalesman's future in American trade. Mr.Wyman also maintains that the standardsIn the traveling fraternity are continuallyimproving. He says.

The dry foods trade and nearly every otherline of jobbing requires active and" able rep-resentatives on the road. The system ofgoing after trade is the American Idea.American trade will never. go back to thesystem of the merchant's going to: market.Traveling salesmen will always be an im-portant adjunct to a successful wholesalebusiness. A -first-class • traveling salesmancan be not only a profit-maker for his house,but he can be of great benefit to the cus-tomer. He sells the goods and keeps hishouse supplied with valuable informationconcerning business conditions in his terri-tory. If he is a first-class, up-to-date man,,he supplies the customer:with ideas thatprove money-makers. Many, retail merchants !owe their success In business to the * coaching jand assistance given tb/m by traveling sales-men. I believe that" the'-next ten years;will see the general qualifications required of:the commercial travelers of a the northwestraised to a still higher standard.- Men willbe employed who are thoroughly able to rep-resent their houses from every point of view,not only In the sale of the goods, - but |inother matters connected with the business.The "traveling fraternity will .contain fewermen who are not fitted for the work, andmore men trained for that special occupa-tion. The merchant will always .come tomarket more or less, but he will never ceaseto appreciate the traveling ..salesman. Thismuch must be remembered—wholesale houseshave prospered without employing " travelingsalesmen, but not to th« extent'of thosehouses in the same lij_e which have pushedtheir, business with the aid of good represen-tatives.

ADMIRAL 5Cm__YS COUHSEL.A. E. Bezoier, a prominent northwest-

ern comercial traveler, says:Most of the men affected by the trusts

were specialty salesmen, selling goods, to beshipped direct from the manufacturer to theretail merchant, and which now pass throughthe hands of the wholesaler. But the gen-eral results are not as disastrous to thetraveling fraternity as was predicted a fewyears ago. Various branches of the whole-sale trade have been compelled to increasetheir traveling forces. Increase in popula-tion in the older districts and the openingof new territory have made more travelingsalesmen necessary. Another reason for thisincrease is the need of better departmentrepresentation on the road by many houses.The man of known ability has found no dif-ficulty in securing a desirable line and ter-ritory.

There are more men on the road to-daythan ten years ago. Airbusiness has seenan advance and an improvement in methods.The traveling man has not stood still. He isinvaluable to the. wholesaler and necessary

to his success. He is progressive, resource-ful, and a" medium of information for thehouse he represents as well as for the cus-tomer. . ' ,

line of the best there was in Ireland.Terry puts it this way:

Not until the trade of this country is alldominated by trusts will the traveling mandisappear, and If he is ever forced to beata retreat, it will be a retreat in good order.The traveling man has done his part towardcreating the wealth now controlled by greatenterprises. He has been the steam that haspushed the business ahead; that gave thetrust promoter something to work on. Aslong as there is ambition in any businessman or corporation, he will be seeking newfields to conquer, end that will always be thecase unless he has a monopoly. Under theseconditions traveling salesmen must be em-ployed. The northwest has more travelingsalesmen to-day than ever before. Trustshave been able to cut down their travelingforce, but good men are in demand to-day

i everywhere.

, . No Fear of a Change.

So the "traveling man" fears no changeof "system," and little cares for the in-roads of the trust. He believes that thefraternity is progressing toward abrighter future.

. ———REST CURES

Doctors Would Often Rather AdviseThan to Give Medicine.

American Medicine.'The importance attained by health re-

sorts in Europe is shown by the fact thatthe ' German and Austrian medical pro-fession with the co-operation of the gov-ernments of those countries has appointeda committee to arrange; cheap excursionswhich will j give, physicians and medicalstudents an opportunity of visiting andexamining the health resorts of the twocountries. This committee includes twofamous medical men, Professor yon Ley-den * and Professor Liebreich. The firstexcursion - party will visit the seacoastresorts in September. y :•'yy-.y-

It may be the result of the above con-ception of the scope of medical treat-ment that in these-countries It seems tobe true that a physician* will often givehis patient nothing but sound advice andthe patient; be satisfied that the doctorhas done his duty." Unfortunately shoulda physician here forget to add a pre-scription the chances are ! that the pa-tient Iwould seek another more circum-spect practitioner. Of course a busy per-son or one of < limited means will everhope that a "forced, often expensive, vaca-tion- may not be necessary and equallygood results attained by a course of medi-cal treatment.

1 a doctor who tries to help them.

\u25a0Among the methods offered by those who jwould do away with the traveling man: _

:the system of bringing the trade to market,thereby reducing the expense of selling goods,"presumably, and making lower prices to j thomerchant. But it will readily be. seen thatthis system-would demand large additions, tothe number of house salesmen. Then thecustomers would undoubtedly] expect \u25a0 thehouses to defray their expenses. This wouldmore than offset the .expense• of -travelingsalesmen who could ' transact • business witha score or more merchants at practically thesame expense. The house that continues tosend. a complete line of Isample merchandiseto the dcor ,of- the merchant will secure thebusiness. It is the natural. way for the mer-chant to buy. He has his stock at hand andcan jmake \his purchases more intelligently.It, furnishes him 3 with the best 'opportunityof gauging competing lines, and that withoutexpense or loss of time. s The country mer-chant. would the quickest to combat anyeffort to eliminate] the traveling man.

ARE YOU DONKEYOR SHIPPER?Or Have You Been Taken Care Of—Simple

Story of Rank Injustice That Will ReachFlesh and Blood Minneapolitans.

To the Editor of The Journal.I noticed in your yesterday's Issue, a

statement purporting to come from Mr.Earling, president of the Chicago, Mil- iwaukee & St. Paul railway, to the effectthat "sometime" in the future Minne-apolis is to have fair treatment in thematter" of service on the lowa & Minne-sota division. It is rather discouragingto note that this last promise of Mr.Earling's is not as satisfactory as the onemade to a committee of our business menwho called on him In Chicago a fewmonths ago regarding this and other mat-ters. As I remember the report made atthat time, he promised a correction ofwrongs at once. As nothing has beendone since that promise was made, it Istime for another promise, and the in-definite way in which this Is wordedshould make the situation satisfactory toMinneapolis for sometime, after whichwe can ask him to "please" make -usanother promise.

Here we have a city furnishing thatroad more than twice the business St.Paul does, a business more valuable thanthat of any other station outside of Chi-cago, and I am sure the great majority ofour business men and shippers are ignor-ant of the imposition practiced upon thiscity for years in the matter of runningthe I. & M. division trains; otherwise,they would have demanded . justice, andwould, if necessary, have made It ex-pensive for that road to longer persist inIts rank discrimination against this city.

In order that the situation may "beknown to all, I wish to relate a recentexperience. Thursday morning I boardedthe train which is scheduled to arrivehere at 11:05 a. m. at a station in thesouthern part of the state. ,It is one ofthe trains that is supposed to detach acar" at Mendota : for Minneapolis,' thoughthere is no sign on the cars, as thereshould be, to indicate which car.goes tothis city. Before arriving at Mendota,the brakeman notified us that the entiretrain would go through to St. Paul, wherewe arrived at eight minutes ' before 11.On inquiry, I found that the car" whichis scheduled to come to Minneapolis Isusually pulled up here from Mendota bya switching crew, after it is detached fromthe train,, but that crew was probablybusy, I presume switching freight forMinneapolis business men. "

At St. :Paul we were notified that allbound for Minneapolis would take a cer-tain car. This, of course, necessitated

those in the other car gathering up theirsatchels, band boxes, babies, etc., and get*ting the best accommodation they couldin the crowded car which was coming toMinneapolis. Immediately on arriving inSt.. Paul, the conductor and brakeman leftthe train, as it was the end of their run,without turning the seats, and as abouthalf of them were locked, a considerablenumber of the passengers were obliged toride backwards until the new conductorcame through the car, which occurredsome time after we left St. Paul, and notuntil I noticed two ladies and a child carsick, doubtless as a result of the rid*backwards. There probably was a brake-man on the train but neither he nor thoconductor appeared during the huriy burlyincident to transferring to the Minneapo-lis car, and the few gentlemen on the carwere kept busy turning seats, and tryingto turn seats that were locked. -.;,,.

After a wait in the St. Paul depot of ex-actly eight minutes, we started for Minne-apolis, where we arrived at 11.26. Forty-one* minutes before, we were at Mendota,less than five miles from Minneapolis;our train arrived in Bt. Paul on scheduletime, and thirty-four minutes later Bworeached Minneapolis, twenty-one minutesbehind schedule time, after being sub-jected to all the annoyances I have de-scribed. r .:*--, '. 'y \u25a0 '.

Is it any wonder the passengers who;came to Minneapolis were almost entirelywomen and children? Would any businessman living on that line come to Minne-apolis on business if he could avoid it?Certainly not, for two very good reasons:':'In the first place, the discomfort of sucha trip and loss of time would deter him;and in the second place, he would have noconfidence in the business ability of acommunity that: would tolerate such [e\< :service. ...

I had intended to sign this "One of theDonkeys," but the writing of my experi-ence has, I believe, changed my disposi-tion, and I shall sign It "Shipper," andadd that from now on I am one of the,shippers who proposes to divert evelS"pound of freight possible from the Mil-waukee, as well as the Omaha, until thosecum of Justice, even though one or twocum of Justice, even thought one or twoof our largest shippers are presum-ably well satisfied with the confidential ar- ;

rangements they have with the railroads,and usually travel In private cars or on |passes, and a seemingly semi-official rail-road publicationcontinue to advocate the"Please and promise" policy. ;

Pulpit and PewMR. LAMAR'S REPLYHe Answers the Question, "Who

Are the Disciples of Christ?"

PECULIAR BUT NOT PECULIAR

A Church "Whose Only Creed lit theNew Testament— Ap-

pendices.

Rev. J. S. Lamar, Grovetown, Ga., tothe question, "Who are the Disciples of

Christ," contributes a reply in substanceas follows:

Let me answer that the Disciples are dis-tinguished from other Christians by having

no distinction; that they are peculiar in notbeing peculiar. This characteristic is nega-tive, as respects other Christians, but In It-self Is no less positive and distinctive. AllChristians are essentially alike. They believeand must believe In Christ. He is the object

of their faith, the source of their life andthe ground of their hope. Itmatters not whothey are, they believe on him, preach him,Jove him, obey him. So far there Is nothingto distinguish them from each other. This isthe unifying faith, and so long as they areContent with It they are one. Itmakes themChristians.

But It should be noticed, It makes themnothing else. It does not make them denoml-natlnal or any peculiar kind of Christians,but just Christians or, disciples of Christ. Itrequires something more than this divinefaith, something different from It, or someenlargement or modification of It, to make ofa man anything more or other than a simple

Christian. "y *'

This appendix may be in the form of anelaborate confession of faith, or articles ofreligion, of speculative doctrines and dogmas,together with the assumption and wearing of

the Christian church. ,/\u25a0,..'

some distinctive name; but whatever, it is,while it subserves this.purpose, it necessarilydistinguishes them also from the Christianspure and simple as portrayed in the new tes-tament. •

The reader will now perceive what I meanby saying that the distinguishing peculiarityof the disciples is in having none. They haveno human creed and no party name. Theironly creed Is the one which all alike believeand accept, and which all alike must believeand accept in order to be Christians. If theyare distinguished from others, it is only be-cause others wear distinguishing badges, andthey do not. '-' ,

: ; Now those persons who feel that it isproper, and right to be more than Christianselect the distinguishing human organizationand name which they refer, and thus become,often without meaning it, sectarian. With jmany, however, the conviction is ripening intoa feeling, that additions to original Christian-ity can only mar Its divine beauty and com- Jplicate Its divine simplicity. Of course, the !obvious and natural alliance for such Chris- jtians is with the Disciples of Christ. This Imay explain why so many Intelligent and jpious persons are uniting with them. It is ifurther explained by the fact that to the lead- jers of Christian thought it has become evi-dent that the only possible foundation. for Itrue Christian union is this same divine faith jUpon which the Disciples are standing andpleading for union.. It is needless to add. especially for those I\u25a0who have had knowledge of the Disciples, \that this faith in the personal and divineChrist Involves the Intelligent acceptance ofAll his teachings and the willingobedience tofcis commandments and ordinances. It In-volves an abiding trust In him as a living•nd gracious presence, and a faithful walkwith him and In him to the very end.

NORMANNAHEIMENOLE BULL'S5 COLONYStory of an Unfortunate Venture in

-.Pennsylvania. . '

THE "CASTLE" NOW IN DECAY

How the Great Mnsician Gave Con-

certs to Raise Money for

* ' Colonists. *

Only one , survivor of Ole Bull's ill-fated colonies of Oleona and New Bergen,

in Potter county, Pennsylvania, is stillliving in the vicinity. She is Mrs. Mary

Andersen, widow of Henry Andersen, Mr.Bull's manager and secretary. She is 84years old and lives with an adopted sonback in the hills. She was in earlier daysa remarkable woman, for, besides beinga successful trapper, a wielder of the axand a tiller of the soil, she distinguishedherself as a log driver on Kettle creekduring the early years of lumbering onthat stream. Having the strength of twoordinary .men, this woman, with pike-poleand cant-hook, waded knee deep in theturbulent stream, wresting the strandedlogs into the water and breaking Jamswith' an Intrepidity seldom displayed bymen. It is no wonder then, after a lifeof this sort, that one finds her to-day asufferer with rheumatism and scarcely iable to leave the cumbersome arm chairthat was made especially for her use. Buther memory is yet quite good, and shetells many interesting things concerningOle Bull and his colonists. Those of thelatter who were unable to leave the coun-try- after the: downfall of the settlementnow lie buried in a little graveyard justbelow the old Oleona inn. \u25a0

.Mrs. Andersen tells of the coming ofOle Bull and his countrymen; how bois- jterously happy they were; how theydanced the nights away, to the enchantingnotes of Oles fiddle, and how they builtcastles in the air during their quiet mo-ments. One might at a merry makinghefd (at the Oleona inn the Norwegian.jdanced so lustily that the floor gave way; and the dancers were thrown into apromiscuous heap on the floor below. Allescaped injury,' however, and after drink-,ing to the health of Ole Bull and the suc-cess of his colony they adjourned to an-other apartment and continued their rev-

. elry. * ' " .' " . v \u25a0"\u25a0\u25a0' '\u25a0:Oles Castle. » .

* Ole Bull's "Castle," though but a two-story frame structure, was looked upon asa quite extravagant feat in architecture.Except for the wayside tavern, Oles abodewas. the most pretentious structure in thecountry roundabout, for the colonists livedIn log houses, sometimes as many as fivefamilies under one roof. ; - y " ;•

The "Castle" was built on the crest ofa hill, near the center of the 12,000 acreswhich Bull and his countrymen bought,within a year it became known to thecolonists that they had been victimizedby unscrupulous swindlers; that the titleto their land was worthless; that all themoney they had paid out was as if it hadbeen thrown into the fire, and they wereleft at the very verge of starvation,, with-out even a rift of hope in the cloud; ofdespondency. Many of the colonists hadput into the property every dollar 4fcatthey had. Others used money that hadbeen borrowed from friends. When the

: colonists got over their first • great dis-appointment and grief there were those

! among them ready to kindle the fire of re-sentment against Ole Bull. At his doorwas placed the blame for the disastroustermination -of '\u25a0 the colonists' roseatedream. '\u0084-""..,;•; -"'„*>', They forgot that in the shrewd game ofthe land , owners, in which the title ;totheir 12,000 acres had been swept away,OlejBull iwas by far the heaviest loser.He, like they, -was left almostF penniless,but they thought jonly ofItheir own lossesand the | hardships jthat , the: future held jin

istore ' for them. yBut Ole Bull, •**though

Ialmost heartbroken over the cruel fate

that h had overtaken his own fortune andthe colony plan which bade so fair to bea blessing to his countrymen, did not des-pair. It was a time when something hadto be done, and that quickly. The storesof the colonists were about exhausted;discontent was manifest upon every hand;winter was coming on, and succor mustbe had somehow, somewhere. It was thenthat Ole took up his violin again, and for

I the next few months nearly all the moneyhe made with his fiddle went toward buy-ing provisions and clothing for the Ole-ona colonists. It is said that when he leftthe colony on this occasion he walkedthrough the forest to Lock Haven, thirty

miles distant carrying the case containinghis precious fiddle under his arm. AtLock Haven he gave his first concert; the ]

second was given at Williamsport, andfrom each of these places wagons loadedwith supplies,were sent back to the dis-heartened colonists in the Kettle creekvalley.

- Few Cabins Left.

There are very few of the old cabinsleft in the old settlements and soon theyand the "Castle" will have wholly disap-peared with nothing to mark the site ofthe colonies -so kindly planned by OleBull.

SWEDEN'S FAVORITE

("miliar Wennerberg., Whose Memory

Cannot Die, Is Dead.; Gunnar Wennefberg, whose death lastFriday at Stockholm was announced in acable dispatch was the most popular com-poser born on Swedish soil. For morethan a half-century the Swedes have beensinging his songs, and they have takensuch a hold on the people that they cannever- die. Whether it be his patrioticsongs and marches, his students' songsor religious hymns, all are the best of

i their class, and have attained the widestpopularity. His versatility as a musician

; was remarkable, but in addition he dis-tinguished himself as a poet, scholar,teacher, and, in the field of politics, ofthe whole world of art he was a care-ful student, and he spoke with authorityon every branch.

That his place in Sweden will, or evencan, be filled, is extremely doubtful.

Gunnar Wennerberg was of a peasantfamily, though his father, who bore thesame name, was a clergyman at Lldkop-ing, where the great composer was bornOct. 2, 1817. He thus was nearly 84 yearsat the time of his death. At the Univer-

| sity of Upsala, which he entered to takea philosophical course, he attained themaster's degree in 1845.y It was at Upsala that he became ac-quainted ! with the Juvenals, a merrygroup of gifted young men whose asso-ciation inspired his earlier Juvenal songs.Later appeared "Gluntame," a collectionof duets for barytone and bass,which havebeen sung everywhere for over a half-century. - Serious philosopher though hewas, he .was attracted by the gay. studentlife.y In 1849 he became ; Instructor Inphilosophy in Skara academy, • where he

i remained for sixteen years. King CarlXV., an intimate friend, ;called Wenner-berg to Stockholm to take charge of the.new museum of art, a position ! foriwhich

; he was peculiarly "well qualified, but the; plans went awry and he became chief of abureau * \u25a0; in '.y the ; church -.:." department.While holding this position he was electeda member -of the Swedish academy, suc-ceeding "Christian Erik -Fablcrantz. In1870, 1 after a change in the ministry, thebureau chief was called to the head ofthe department, remaining -< there fiveyears, making as he did everywhere hosts

i of friends. < In particular he was Instru-I mental In the introduction of various re-I forms; \ which gave universal satisfaction,jAnother •ministerial change relieved himof his 1portfolio, but in 1875 the 'govern-

' :Prime; Minister fBildt called the ; great scald to: theH church fportfolio, which he looked; after most faithfully until 1891. *While a master lln composing songs of; gaiety and ]love, Wennerberg iwas also a! man oft deep i religious ifeeling, which is1 nowhere *«more ' •plainly shown " than ?£ hisfamous -rendition in music .of the psalms

of David. Among his patriotic hymns are"Hor of Svea," "0 Gud Some Styrer Ver-dens Oden," "Sta Stark dv LJusets Rid-dervakt," and many others, each breath-ing a live patriotism of the highest kind.

The high esteem in which he was heldwas fully shown in the many jubilees andanniversaries held in his honor, whichwere observed almost as public holidays.On the semi-centennial of the appearanceof "Gluntame," and on his seventieth andeightieth birthdays, he was honored bythe whole nation without stint. Youth-ful humor and manly earnestness and dig-nity were combined in Wennerberg in ahappy manner, and his personal popular-ity was as great as was that of his songs.

NORTHERN LIGHTS

An Expedition Makes Some Very Im-portant Discoveries.

Dr. Adam Paulsen's expedition to Ice-land to study the Aurora borealis has re-turned with a large quantity , of data,sketches, photographs and paintings asproofs of interesting and valuable" dis-coveries.

The expedition was dispatched under theauspices of Dr. Adam Paulsen, director ofthe Copenhagen Meteorological Institute.It consisted of Lieutenant La Cour, M. M.Middilbo and Kofoed, physicists, and theartist, Count Herold Moltke.

It was wonderfully well equipped withapparatus. Dr. Paulsen most enthusias-tically describes the expedition as follows:

The party left Copenhagen, and arrivedafter an extraordinarily favorable passage atAkureyrl, where operations were Immediatelycommenced.

Count Moltke has brought home from thisexpedition some unique oil paintings of theauroral displays, which are very valuable aswell as Interesting, says Dr. Paulsen. Be-sides the regular observations of clouds veryinteresting observations were taken also ofwhat s has been termed "Mother of PearlClouds," which were observed twice duringthe expedition. , \u25a0»

Both times the observation of such cloudstook place during the noon times. The spec-troscopes revealed nothing noteworthy aboutthem, yet had such clouds been self luminousthe strong daylight would likely have pre-vented the expedition from seeing the actualspectre of these clouds.

To scientifically explain the work of theexpedition would be impossible, except in bookform or by a series of lectures, but it issufficient that after the foregoing details tostate that the facts gathered by measurementsand photographs have put science on thetrack of wonderful discoveries concerning theaurora borealis, a phenomenon about whichthe world in general as yet knows very little,the expedition at Lulur having made valu-able discoveries concerning the ultra violetpart of the spectre, which has for centuriespuzzled scientists all over the world.

BJORNSON'S POSITION

Is a Pan-German and Tells His Crit-ics Why.

Having announced himself as a Pan-German in an address before the Pressclub of Berlin Bjornstyerne Bjornson wassubjected to bitter censure in Denmarkwhich naturally can not forget the twoSchleswick wars in which the Danes lostso much. Bjornson replies to the criticsIn his characteristic way, that any oneshould question-his love and sympathy forDenmark grieves him In view of his manywritings in its behalf and especially inview of the attacks against him two yearsago when he sought to show Germanywhat great injustice was being done to theDanes of Schleswick for persisting Inkeeping alive the Danish language andculture. Nevertheless he says the Scan-dinavian countries have no future togetherwith France and Russia, but their fatemust be linked with their kin in GreatBritain, Germany, -Holland and America.All the German races should unite for thepreservation of universal peace. Such aunion would :benefit the people of NorthSchleswick and moderate the lllwlllexist-ing between r Germany and England aswell as other national prejudices.

SOMETHING SARCASTICThe Function of the Editor and Publisher—The Vicious Habit of Read-

ins: Denounced by Mr. Howells.

a i PEAKING of the reading public, a writer in Atlantic's Contributors' Clubsays: "The public are too busy .to hire their own entertainers, and sowe have a special class of men called publishers and editors, who areindeed in some instances endowed with literary judgment, but far

J oftener exercise the functions of the popular showman In an ItineranteAuiuiiion. They will, of course, provide the ordinary program— theological

.novel, the problem play, and the humanitarian poem; and they will probably alsohave a few freaks to amuse more volatile mindsshort-haired women who write ofother" worlds than ours; long-haired men of eccentric morals, and sexless beings

• whose thoughts run on nothing but sex. This arrangement leaves the writer -no" means of subsistence unless he contributes to some "series," emanating from the; taste and fancy of the publisher, such as "The World's Greatest Boozeflghters";; and in any case, he is usually thrown back upon journalism a process which only afew men like John Morley have survived." /

W. D. Howells in "Editor's Easy Chalr"of Harper's Monthly for Septemberdiscusses free libraries and tne matter or reading too much and too Indiscriminately.He thinks we read too much and don't think enough. "Literature," he says, "is allbut laid on In pipes, like water." This makes it easy to read, it is easier to readthan to think, ergo, we read.

As an antidote for the poison of reading and a stimulant toward thinking hesuggests talking and says that a refined form of gossip will probably "hit" it for theaverage "reformed reader." In practicing this habit of refined gossip he urges the"conscientious avoidance of those things which the press makes its indiscriminateprey," adding: "We do not wish to imply that reading the newspapers is alto-gether deleterious."

This qualifying addendum Is all that saves Mr. Howells. Had he omitted it he"would have been guilty of cutting off those whom he would reform as readers andmake over into talkers and therefore thinkers. As it is the addendum is half-hearted—a sort of back-handed saving clause that doesn't mean much. There may bemuch in the average newspaper worthy of the condemnation of Mr. Howells, buteven Mr. Howells must admit that history in the process of making is given in thepapers, the affair, of the day which mark the progress or the retrogress of civiliza-tion for the brief unit of time made up of twenty-four hours. If the conclusions de-duced from the one thing or other by the press or the papers of one day have to bemodified in the papers of the next it must be remembered that the press, like Mr.Howells, is fallible. To this fact must be attributed the mistakes of the press; butthese mistakes should only stimulate the dissipated reader, who is seeking to shakeoff the "vicious habit," to think. If the conclusions of his paper are wrong let himset out to show himself or some friend (thereby forming the habit of talking)wherein the paper Is wrtmg. Such a course would be in line with Mr. Howells* sug-gestion as to talk as a thought stimulant, but it would give the newspaper a higherplace in his educational scheme. In the very nature of the case thenewspaper's cannot be as accurate in their views as they would like, but it is safe tosay that if a reader who is seeking to read less and think more will digest the newsof the day in one good newspaper or even that part of the news in which he is spe-cially Interested he will do some thinking and be able to do more and more as hegrows in the habit and loosens the hold upon his mind of that class of fiction whichMr. Howells so much deplores.

A book that Is still selling despite the fact that it bears last year's date, andwill probably be selling after many books of the current year have gone where bad

is helpful not only because of the truths It contains but because of the fact that tojread It is to think, and thinking, as Mr. Howells says, is to be cultivated as an anti-dote for the bad habit of bad reading.

In the opening chapter on "Sunday Morning" you find this:"We need not only our own silent hours and quiet places; we need

also the vast quiet of Sunday morning, the repose of universal rest andof immemorial worship. The calm of those fresh and fragrant hours is nofigment of the imagination; it is a kind of spirituallzatlon of nature; it is a sym-bol of that peace of God which passes understanding."

A little deeper down in this mine of good things you come upon this gem:"To excel in any craft or skill involves a clear and definite setting aside of

many things which are at moments almost irresistible in their appeal to our desires

' and Impulses; and it is quite as much by what he discards as by what he accepts

that the worker evidences his mastery of his materials and his tools. Behind everygreat career there lies a denial of self of which the world knows nothing. * * *The noblest spiritual growth is not evidenced by that which it rejects but by thatwhich it redeems; a man of low spiritual vitality may be content to hold his own,but a man of high spiritual vitality is driven by the very force of that vitality to mixwith the widest movement of his time and take his stand where the great forceswhich move men converge."

The book is full of things as good and even better. If you persist you will find onone of the last pages this: ''••.,>

"The earth lives moment by moment because It Is folded in the light and heatand movement of the universe. Every flower that blooms, however delicate andfragile, unfolds at the bidding of another world than that in which its roots areplanted; every cloud that floats across the loveliness of the summer day is soft andluminous because the light of another world touches its Innermost haze. We areaffected hour by hour by these remote Influences; we are confronted day by day by

the splendour of the universe; and yet we are often unconscious of these larger

relations."You may have thought these things before; somebody else may have spoken them

to you or you may have seen them in print, but there is something in their setting,

in the way of Mr. Mable has of putting them, that forces them home and makes them'a part of your own thought. After reading his little book you won't forget themagain,.

The college song furnishes a target for William L. Alden In his letter to theNew York Times Saturday Review of last week In the following:

"Human idiocy probably reached its highest expression in what are known asAmerican college songs. At least this was true in the days when I knew the songsin question. ePrhaps since then college songs have been written which could besung by a self-respecting idiot without a blush, but as to that I frankly confess thatI have no knowledge. In my college days the principal songs were "Co-ca-che-lunk-che-lunk-che-laly,' and 'Shule, shule, shule-l-rule.' Most of us believed in another. world, but nevertheless we sang those awful songs with shameless delight. I neversuspected that either of them had the slightest meaning, but now I find in a book byMiss Frances Campbell called "Love the Atonement," the following lines:

Shule, shule, shule, agra.Shule go succer agree agra.

"These lines are asserted to be Irish. Perhaps they are, but possibly in calling

them Irish. '\u25a0 Miss Campbell meant to add one more to the woes of Ireland. At anyrate, they show the origin of one of the college songs just mentioned, and in view ofthat fact it is possible that we shall sooner or later find that 'Co-ca-che-lunk-che-lunk-che-laly' is Welsh or Sanskrit, and not, as I have hitherto supposed, merely theJabber of Dead Sea though why the jabber of that particular simian species

should be regarded as more objectionable than the jabber of other apes, I do notknow.

One thing, however—Mr. Came must not besurprised if there should.be considerable ob-jection to his proposition to locate the capitalof his future "Republic of Man" in Rome.There Is no reason why it should be there.But Rossi should be credited with a detesta-tion of assassination to bring about Ihe "in-ternational federation."

Undeniably he is very interesting in hisportrayal of the papal situation. The popehas, as he shows, undertaken to oppose socialdemocracy and its menace to the rights ofacquisition and possession with "Christiandemocracy," which, analyzed, means a sys-tem under which humanity shall obey thechurch 1. c., the pope, as head of the socialstructure he favors. That social structure isnot democratic but monarchical. Mr. Camewould seem to have made a mistake in put-ting Italy In the lead for the political andsocial regeneration of the world.

NEW BOOKS

The Eternal City. By Hall Came. NewYork: D. Appleton & Co. Price, $1.50.Mr. Caine's new novel of some 640 pages

embodies an ample and elaborate exploita-tion of theories of political and social reformwhic* have dazzled the Mazzlnls' and Tol-stoys! of the ages. The action Is In and aboutRom*. "The Eternal City, which becomesthe great world-city of the regenerated world,which Mr. Came portrays in the last pagesof his book—an International federation, withwar and wealth and individual ownership ofland abolished; monarchies and empiresthings of the past It must be confessed thatMr. Came permits the exaltation of manyimpractical things. His hero, David Rossi,was about as theoretical as Mazzinl and as-sumed for humanity just as much as he andhis notion of "Christian Democracy" is aboutas errant as Tolstoy's, and as predatory asHenry George's confiscatory land . theory.The title of the book is selected because ofMr. Caine's theory that, as Rome was theold capital city of the Pagan and Christianworlds, so it will figure a? the Imposingcenter of activity and progress and of man'shumanity to man under the new regime, "theseat of the great court of appeal In thecongress of humanity which, as surely as thesun will rise to-morrow, the future will seeestablished."

David Rossi stands in this bock as thechampion of the people and representative ofthe power of the people. The pope is intro-troduced as a claimed champion of the peo-ple; but Is rejected by Rossi on the groundthat to exchange the king for the monarchicalpope would be changing nothing for the ad-vantage of the people who are bent on reject-ing the dogma of divine right, whether heldby kings, emperors or popes. In the regener-ated • state, as depicted at the close of thebook, the' pope is represented as havingabandoned the dream of temporal power andliving. on the distinctly scriptural principle,"My kingdom is not of this world." In ac-cordance with his theory, Mr. Came had topicture the Italian government as bad as itcould possibly be, and he devotes considerablelabor to such portraiture. He has an elabor-ate setting for a very elaborate romance.That part .of the story is a little tiresome.Donna Roma Volonna, the Delilah to Rossithe Samson, is hardly satisfactory, althoughMr. Came has taken much pains to make herthe central figure. The development of Romaand Rossi out of the dim obscurity cf SohoSquare, London, where they were Italianwaifs, Is well done and the Infamous conductof the Italian prime minister toward . Roma'sfather and herself is strongly brought out,while it seems quite unnecessary to jtantalizeRossi withjjja. marriage with Roma of thepeculiarly flighty kind described.

Successful Men Told by Themselves. ByOrison Swett Marden, editor of Success.Illustrated. Boston: Lothrop Publishing Co.

' Price, $1.50. '" , :In this book will be found interesting and

stimulating stories of the lives of successfulmen and women, related by themselves, withcomments by Mr. Marden. These IncludeMarshall Field, Alex G. Bell, Helen Gould,Phil D. Armour, Mary E. Proctor, PresidentSchurman of Cornell university, John Wana-maker, F. W. Ruckstuhl, the sculptor, D. Og-den Mills, Nordica, W. D. Howells, J. DRockefeller. Julia Ward Howe, Edison, Gen-eral Lew Wallace, Carnegie, Herreshoff, theyacht builder, Amelia Barr,Theodore Thomas,John Burroughs, J. Whltcomb Riley, H. H.Vreeland. Most of these successful personswon success because they had not only theperseverance .and gift of continued energy,but a strong underlying special gift, as Mad-ame Nordica. Very, few can ever becomeNoidlcas and Amelia Barrs. Success as anovelist after fifty years Is phenomenal. Theo-dore Thomas won success because he felt hehad a mission to have the people get nearerto good music. Herreshoff's career is veryInteresting. Some of John B. Herreshoff's ob-servations are capital, as: "Some seem tohave natural executive ability, and othersdevelop It, while most men never possessit. Those who lack it cannot hope to risefar and never could." This is conspicuouslytrue. It is injudicious to tell boys that theycan do everything that successful men havedone, for they can't do it If they do not pos-sess natural ability for specialties in life,which Is' certainly not given" to all, bur tocomparatively few. Yet the successful menand women in the world set an example ofthe building of strong character which itis the duty of all who would gain a footholdin the world to emulate. Character, energyand wholesome ambition inevitably bring ameasure of success in the world to all whoenter the race, even if they do rot possessthe gifts which bring great conspicuity tothose who use them rightly. -Told by Two. A.Romance of Bermuda. By

Marie St. Felix (Mrs. Jerome MorleyLynch), author of "A Little Game WithDestiny," etc. Chicago: M. A. Donohue &Co., Nos. 407-429 Dearborn street. Cloth,$1.25. Paper, 50 cents.This is a story told in letters and diaries.

It is not always a pleasant way of romancing,but these "Two" are quite interesting. ThereIs an element of genuine wit in Mrs. BobPettingill's story of her trip to Bermuda inthe winter. She left her husband in NewYork and carried on a flirtation with a NewYorker she encountered on. the steamer, andthe two were together so continuously thatthe gossips at Port Hamilton babbled much.But ultimately this pleasant diversion as-sumed a serious phase, for Burnham finallyproposed an elopement and Mrs. Pettingillhesitated, which Is always dangerous for awoman, but opportunely her grandfather putsin an appearance and the current of events ischanged. The colonel had never met her, ashe had refused to countenance the marriageof his son with an actress, which her motherwas. Mrs. Pettingill decided to give up theelopement and let Burnham flicker. She goton the New York steamer with her dog, andshe writes: "Certainly we can't be underway! It is not possible! My God!—lt's true!We are actually rushing out to sea. Whathave I done! What can Amo (Burnham)think! How can I ever explain"it! Ha ha,ha! What a ridiculous situation! After allour cut and dried plans— magnificent ar-rangements—was ever anything so absurd!Ha, ha, ha, ha! It's too tragic to be funny,of course—and yet—how very funny it is!'The Elopement That Was Nipped in theBud.' 'The Woman Who Would—ButDidn't!

Mrs. Green. By Evelyne Elsye Rynd. New£«; £' P' Putnam' Sons, Nos. 27 and;L2V ,Twenty-third street. Minneapolis-Nathaniel McCarthy. Price, 75 centsAlthough the title of this book is orief andunpromising, it is very amusing reading, forMrs. Green is given full swing as a philo-

sopher and a raconteur. Her Engli3h is ofthe kind put by Dickens in the months of somany of his characters. When Mrs. Greenwas informed that Miss Mildred was goingto be married (Mrs. Green was employedabout the house when-they were short ofhelp), here is what occurred:

"Mrs. Green looked at the floor In deadsilence. Then she thoughtfully examined theIntricacies of the hairy swab in her soddenhand; finally she slowly plunged it into herpail, and, returning from her heels to herknees, recommenced, in a dark abstraction,to wash inches off her island. This was de-pressing. 'Don't you think that's cheerfulnews?* I asked. Mrs. Green washed on amoment in silence. Then she said, in ac-cents of unmitigated gloom: .

" 'Weil, miss, if you harsks me, it's noosas may be cheerful, or it may not. There'sno sayin* yet awhile. The Bible tells us 'owwe ain't to r'envy our neighbor's wife, weain't to r'envy our neighbor's 'ouse, norrisservingt, norris maid, norris ox, norris ass—till we know 'ow he treats 'em.'

" 'It's not enoy, It's covet,' I said, some-what startled.

" 'What you covit, you r'envy,' said Mrs.Green, with decision, 'or you did In myyoung days,' which puzzled me so that aftera moment of bewilderment I gave it up, andleft Mrs. Green's new reading of the com-mandmants unchallenged.' . -y , ,

" 'Well, said I, returning to our first sub-ject, 'Captain Swift is very nice, anyway.'" 'Nothin',' paid Mrs. Green, suddenly sit-

ting up and emphasizing her words with herhairy swab, 'nothin' could a promised betterthan my first (husband)! Six foot two, an'a face on 'im like a figger'r'ed—two gcod-sized rooms in Golding Lane an' sixteen an'six a week regular when 'c brought it 'ome.An' what did It come to? Ah, unccrtaingthings there Is many," but the sheer uncert-ingness of a desprit kind there's nothin'beats a nusbing.' She resumed her washingwith a heavy groan. , --".*

" 'Well, but you're very happy with Green,aren't you?' suggested I.

'Green's 'apry with me, you mean,* saidMrs. Green, gloomily. 'An' so 'c ought. Ah!I studies Mm.' " y^y :<

Mrs. Green's account of the time she wentto London is immensely amusing, especiallywhere she shows how her stern resolutionthat "no compn'y shell go a-chargin' me forleggidge" (she meant luggage) was rudelysmashed by the "young man at the station

Sabbath-School Lesson.FOR SEPT. 8, 1901

Jacob at Bethel—Gen. XXVIII.10-22.By John R. Whitney. Copyright, 190 L

Golden Text—Surely the Lord is in thisplace.—Gen. xxvlii., 16.

Our attention is turned now from Isaac tohis two jsons, Esau and Jacob. Being hissons, both belonged to the family of the re-deemed. They were twins, but Esau was theelder. When they were born their father,Isaac, was 60 years old (xxv., 26), and theirgrandfather, Abraham, was 160. (xxi., v.) AsAbraham lived to be 175 (xxv., 7), they musthave been 15 years old at the time of hisdeath. During all of these years they wereunder his innuence and instruction, and wecan see them drinking in with boyish aviditythe wonderful stones he had to tell of God'scall to him in Ur, of the destruction of Sodomand Gomorrah, of their father's redemptionand of the "exceeding great and preciouspromises" given him, and reaching into thefar distant future. After his death, as be-fore, the same great facts would also nat-urally be constantly brought before them bytheir father, Isaac.

So the boys grew to man's estate. Bothwere fully and equally Instructed concerningthe \ great birthright to be inherited fromIsaac, their father. But they developed intotwo very different men. "Esau was a cun-ning hunter, a man of the field, and Jacobwas a plain man dwelling in tents." (xxv.,27). In the light of subsequent history thisbrief record speaks volumes concerning them.

The hereditary right to receive and transmit,the Abrahamic blessings and promises, natur-ally belonged to Esau as the first born. Bymost men nis characteristics are recognized asfar more attractive than those of Jacob. Hewas evidently strong, healthy, active anagenerous. His wild hunts in the mountainsnaturally developed keenness of eye, ruddi-ness of cheek, strength of muscle, quicknes.of movement, and courage In danger. Hewas thus just the kind of man most menadmire. He was also a good liver. HeKnew how to prepare and enjoy a savory dishand his father loved him, not only because hewas his son, but "because he did eat of hisvenison." , (xxv., 28.) -

Jacob, oh the contrary, was mild and gen-tle and timid. He loved to be with hismother, and she loved him. They were verycongenial. He had no daring spirit, no largethoughts, no high ambitions. He was quietand meditative, but sluggish in fine sensibili-ties, and if what he had was gained by craft,rather than by labor, he could enjoy It with-out any compunctions. He was "a plainman," and his very name signified "a sup-planter." . (xxvii., 36.) How very differentfrom his brother Esau.

Thus men looked upon them. But in thecourse of time an incident occurred which re-vealed the attitude of each towards God andhis promises. It was probably In their earlymanhood. Jacob had prepared for himself asimple dish of "red pottage." As he wasabout to partake of it, suddenly his brotherEsau stood before him. He had just comefrom one of his hunting excursions, and wastired and hungry, and he craved the foodwhich he saw before him.

"Feed me, I pray thee," he said, "withthat same red pottage, for Iam faint." (xxv.,30.)

The natural impulse of a general mind,looking only to outward conditions, wouldhave been to share at once with Esau the foodhe bad prepared. But Jacob evidently wasthinking more of the birthright of which hehad heard so much than of the pottage he hadso carefully prepared. His conception of thefull nature of that birthright was undoubt-edly very Imperfect, but .he evidently be-lieved it to be a thing greatly to be de-sired. So he had thougnt of It by day, anddreamed of it by night And now there wasan opportunity to obtain a sort of legal rightto it.

"Sell me this day thy birthright," wastherefore his quick reply to Esau.

Thus he had no thought of his own need,or of the enjoyment he had prepared tor him-self, but only of the birthright. To obtainit, he was willingto give up everything, will-ing even to go hurgry.

But not so with Esau. The teachings ofAbraham and of his father had not made avery deep. impression upon him, and It Isevident, that he had no high idea of whatwas Included in the covenant of which he hadheard so much. And just then, he was tiredand hungry, and must have food which wouldsatisfy his appetite. With the extravagantand imperative demands of a very animalnature, he could see no other alternative.For present gratification, therefore, he waswilling to forego all of the promises for thefuture. The Scriptures style him a "profane iperson, who for one morsel of meat, sold his jbirthright" (Heb.-aril., 16), for he said, "Be- jhold. I am at the point to die; and what jprofit shall this birthright do to me? And jhe sold his birthright' unto Jacob." xxv., i32-32.)

After this many years passed by, but how ;many we are not told. During these years jIsaac began to feel the Infirmities of agecreeping upon him. "And it came to passthat when his eyes were dim, so that he,could not see" (xxvii., 1), and death seemed ito be drawing nigh, he proposed, whilst still ]also, to formally testow the Abrahamic bless- :ing upon his first-born, the favorite .son, ;Esau. So he planned how he would bestow 'the blessing, and directed Esau to prepareto receive it. But the plan was fustrated by Ithe scheming and deceit of Rebecca. Time Iand space, however, forbid that we shouldnow enter into the details of this, and thestory is so familiar that it is not necessary,(xxvii., 1. 41.) -The results of Rebecca's scheming, how-ever, were soon seen to be very disastrous.For Jacob no sooner secured the blessing'than he realized that his deceit and lies had iexposed him to great dangers. It was evl- Ident that he must fly for his life.-- Even hismother, with all of her love and sagacity, ;could not devise any means of protectinghim at home.

So, watching his opportunity, with a part-ing blessing on his head and nothing but astaff in his hand (xxxii., 10), he set off aloneover an unknown road, to an unknown land,and to unknown people, several hundred ifnot more than a thousand miles away. Aftera few days, he reached the town -of Luz(verse 9), in the mountains near Jerusalem.It was when the "sun was set", (verse 11),and the gates of the city were closed. Itwas too late to seek hospitality therein, andso he turned aside to sleep alone upon themountain top. -

But Jacob was not merely a stranger,wearied -and alone. This was only his out-Ward condition, as he appeared In the eyes ofmen. His inward condition was known onlyto himself and to God. He was ill at easein mind as well as fatigued in body. " Con-

science was evidently at work, and he realizedthat what he knew concerning himself Godalso knew. He stood before him guilty andself-condemned, for he had distrusted himand deceived man. The memory of that hournever left him. More than twenty yearsafterwards he referred to it as "the day ofmy distress." (xxxv., 3.)

But beyond this anguish of mind because ofthe prickings of conscience, there would also,very naturally, be another train of jthoughtconnected with the covenant of God. All ofhis troubles had come upon him because ofhis haste to secure this Abrahamic blessing.So it would now present itself to him In anentirely new light And as the teachingsof his grandfather, Abraham, and of hisfather, Isaac, were now recalled, the cove-nant itself seemed vastly more to be desiredthan ever before. It had a greater fulnessand a grander reach.

But now, apparently, he had lost it all byhis own wicked folly. Oh, If he could onlyreturn to God and again find him, and bepartaker of all that he had promised. Withthis great longing wellingup in his heart, heprayed, and when he referred to it again,more than twenty years afterwards, he re-corded with gratitude that God "answered"him. (xxxv., 3.) Thus It was not only a"day of distress," but it was also a day ofpenitence and prayer. He was now In thecondition In which God could make known tohim the riches of his grace. This has beenthe history of many a soul since the days ofJacob.

In this state of mind, "he took of thsstones of that place and put them for hispillows and lay down In that place to sleep."(Verse 11.) Then, as was common In patri-archal times, God spoke to him in a dream.In this dream four wonders presented them-selves to him, and each In turn filled himwith more and more rapture. For, as ha -looked,-..'.v"-??;;' \u25a0-.:.' - \u25a0 .. • y'---".y

"Behold! A Ladder."

It was "set up on the earth, and the topof Itreached to Heaven." It was beautifullycomplete. It fell short at neither end. Itwas a way by which even he— and guiltyas he was, and self-condemned— possi-bly reach God. Then another wonder arrestedhis attention.

"Behold The Angels of God."And these angels were "ascending and de-

scending," going up from him, and comingdown to him, on the ladder. Then it was areal, traveled way of Intercourse betweenearth and heaven, and he was surrounded by"ministering spirits sent forth to minister forthem who shall be heirs of salvation." (Heb.,1., 14.) Evidently there was help providedfor him.

But this was not all. The wonders of therevelation constantly increased. Not onlywas there a way provided from earth toheaven, not only was It a real and perfectway, but It was In truth the way of theLord. For as he looked,"Behold! The Lord Stood Above It/*

Then He was not far off and He could bereached. He even spoke to him concerningthe blessings He had promised to Abrahamand- Isaac. So hope began to fill his breast.for the crowning wonder of all was then re-vealed to him."Behold! IAm With Thee, and "Will

Keep Thee.**So the blessings which he thought he had

iforever lost were given to him personally bythe Lord himself. Thus this revelation ofGod's grace gave to the helpless, hopeless andhomeless sinner divine help, a hope which"maketh not ashamed," and a home of restIn tho bosom of his Father.

The gospel Interpretation of this dream lagiven by our Lord himself. "Hereafter,"said He to Nathaniel, "ye shall see heavenopen and angels of God ascending and de-scending upon the Son of Man." (John, i.,51.) This way into heaven, therefore, Is byJesus Christ. (John, xiv., 6.) He satisfiesthe needs of earth and the claims of heaven. IHe Is the "ladder" which reaches both manand God.

When Jacob awoke from his sleep, with theImpressions of his dream upon him, ha real-ized that God had actually spoken to him,"and he said, Surely the Lord Is In thisplace and Iknew It not." But the messageof grace which he had received also , filledhim with peace, and he was able to add withgratitude: "This is none other but the houseof God, and this is the gate of heaven."

He was now a changed man, entering upona new life. Of the stones which were his pil-lows, he at once built an altar and there heworshipped God. "And he called the nam* ofthat place Bethel"— house of the Lord. \u25a0

But more than this. He now consecratedhimself and all that he possessed or mightin the future possess, to the Lord. He did Itunder the form of a solemn oath, for he"vowed a vow, saying. If God will be withme and keep me in. this way that I go andwill give me bread to eat and raiment to puton, so that Icome again to my father's houseIn peace, then shall the Lord be my God andthis' stone which I have set for a pillar shallbe God's house, and of all that thou shaitgive me, I will surely give the tenth untothee." (vv. 20-22.)A Surely this was no spirit of selfish bargain-ing, as many have Interpreted it, but thehumble response of true penitence and faithto the grace of God. God had said, "Iwillbe with thee"; and faith replied—then I willbe the Lord's. y. ;

Such a change and consecration carries withIteverything. After the example of AbrahamJacob specifically set aside one-tenth of allthat he should possess for the service of theLord. 'But under the Christian dispensationthere is no limit fixed by which to measurethe sinner's acceptance of divine grace. . Itmay be wise In some cases to resolutely setapart a tenth or more as the Lord's, lest hareceive none. But the true child cannot setmetes and bounds to his affection. - He laysjeverything and no "one-tenth" "at the tootof the cross.

The Course of BusinessMoney rates have hardened consider-

ably this month, but it is both interest-ing and important to note that the situa-tion remains healthy. There is a demandfor money that is leading to the use of apart of the large surpluses that havepiled up in the banks for a year or more.A part of this demand comes from thewest, where there are crops to move, andwestern banks are furnishing a good partof this supply as it is called for. The Chi-cago banks have made remarkable growthin the last half dozen years and Chicagois becoming a strong financial center. .'.

In this connection it is just as noticeablea fact that the smaller cities are growingfinancially stronger, measured by thebank figures. This general fact, as itpertains to the west, emphasizes thesteady development of the western coun-try. We are getting strong within our- jselves, which makes it necessaray for theeastern centers to look more for Invest-ment in the line of foreign securities.

There is great interest in the food situa-tion around the globe. Some of theclosest observers compute that the Worldhas provided this year food for only elev-en months in the aggregate. Certain it isthat the United States will be called uponto furnish more than the,usual supply ofbreadstuffs and provisions to the people ofEurope. That this is true is shown al-ready by the heavy shipment of wheat toEurope, the high price of provisions andthe almost prohibitory price of potatoes

to the masses in the cities. In Chicagopotatoes are selling for over two dol-lars a bushel at retail. The country al-ways, consumes its potato crop; hence theshortage of potatoes and other vegetables

will probably add to the consumption of

bread as the cheapest article of food.Meats will be high next season. Thepackers estimate that prime stuff will sellat 6*J_ cents next year on the hoof. It

becomes apparent, therefore, that the foodquestion will be an interesting one forsome time to come.

It Is a very encouraging fact that thepeople , are well employed. The steel

strike is wavering because of the refusalof many unions to violate their contractsrecently entered into on a basis satis-factory to the workingmen. The unions in

South Chicago have refused to leav,e theirwork on a sympathy strike that involves

the situation in McKeesport.ilt is gratifying to find that labor in

Chicago, where there has been in thepast a good deal of harshness, has at laststood firmly for the contract they havemade.

General business is good. Railroadearnings are large. Bank clearings. holdabove last year. The business situattionis encouraging. •

Judge Harrison has, decided that theclaim of the taxpayers' " committee that

the city may lay claim to the larger part

of the money in the treasury of the police

relief association is not so much of a joke

. as the legal department of the city wasinclined : to think. It would seem to be j

the privilege of ! the legal department,— ;

now that the taxpayers' committee have 'rescued the $20,000 or so in that fundfrom the grand divide by the ex-members.of the defunct association, get a moveon itself and complete the work of trans-ferring that money to the city treasury.

That is nearly enough to pay for moving

the Jumbo pump from the lower stationand installing it at the Camden pumphouse.

- An Instance \u25a0

The persistent effort of certain railroadsto divert business from' this city to St.'Paul finds an illustration in the experience

. of one of the largest shippers' in Minne-apolisand when we say. one of the largestshippers we mean It—which he describesin a communication to The Journal.to-day.

The instance is unfortunately not rare,and the questions which ' "Shipper" asks

'• should "come directly home to the businesssense of every .'practical business man in

.the city. What reason is there,to expectany business man, living on -lines whichdiscriminate 'so rankly against this city Inthe matter of train, service,* to come hereto do businessif he can possibly avoid it?The reasons cited against. expecting :himto do so are quite sufficient and they are:

:First, the discomfort, annoyance and , de-

lay Involved In reaching Minneapolis; and,in second, the very, natural lack of con-fidence In the business ability of businessmen who will submit to such treatment.

-. There may be those who are not dis-turbed by a knowledge of such facts as aredescribed -In "Shipper's" communicationto-day, but real live flesh and blood Min-neapolitans are bound by cull the Impulses

of self-respect and civic pride, to say

nothing of: vital business considerations,to resent, such treatment with all theirmight.

The District AttorneyshipBefore the senators announce their

choice for United States district attorney

The Journal would like to call theirattention to the names of the gentlemenwho have occupied that position in thisstate since Minnesota became a judicialdistrict. The United States district at-torneys thus far have been:

Eugene M. "Wilson.C. K. Davis.Wr. W. Bilson.D. B. Searle.George N. Baxter.Eugene Hay. r %E. C. Stringer.

Robert G. Evans.That Is a list of' first-class men and

able lawyers. Every on© In the list willmeet that description. And It is alto-gether desirable that. the man who is se-lected to succeed Mr. Evans should main-

tain the standard. We have no candidate,

no suggestion, to make as to who shouldbe appointed, but we feel warranted inexpressing the hope that the senators willrealize the importance of selecting for

this responsible and honorable position aman of the highest integrity, and of very

respectable legal qualifications.The office of United' States district at-

torney is one which affords an opportunity

for the occupant to considerably increase

his official compensation if he is disposed

to vary in the slightest degree from theline of strict integrity and. fidelity to hispublic trust. The office has been filledheretofore by men above suspicion, and by

men of superior legal attainments. Itwill be very much to the credit of the ap-

pointing power if the standard is main-tained.

Circumpolar BarriersA dispatch from Tromsoe, Norway, notes

the return of the steamer Frithjof from

Franz Josef Land, after landing the Bald-win-Zeigler polar expedition on AlgerIsland. The Frithjof met the Russian ice-breaking steamer Ermak during her trip

and learned from Admiral Makaroff thathe had come to the conclusion that it isimpossible to force a way through thepolar sea, even with such a well-equipped,ice-breaking vessel as the Ermak. A.

pathetic incident of the Frithjof's tripwas the visit to the cache wheresome of the unfortunate Andree's provi-sions were stored. That venturesome herowill not be able to tell the story of hisvoyage on this earth. That is one of thedark tragedies of arctic research. Thefate of Lieutenant Peary is now some-what in doubt. He had intended to make

his "dash for the pole" during the pastsummer. Where Is he?

Admiral Makaroff's view of the . pos-sibilities of forcing a way to the pole isundoubtedly correct. Various explorerscome back with cheerful accounts of vis-

ions of "open water" for apparently longdistances, but nobody has yet found that

this open water reaches far enough tocarry a ship to the point beneath Polaris.

Rather does it appear that It is a very

dangerous thing for a ship to get too far

in one of these water lanes, for they

have an ugly habit of closing up suddenly

and locking a vesel in a deadly, icy em-brace. Every expedition yet pushingpolewards has encountered impenetrablemasses of ice. After all the efforts of arc-tic navigators very little gain has beenmade on Parry's farthest in 1827, com-paratively speaking. The story of theTegetthoff, which had to be abandonedby her crew after being held two winters

in the unyielding ice, has been often re-

peated. Her officers, like others, found"open water" but it proved to be an open-ing made by strong winds, surrounded by

old ice,within which lay masses of youngerice rapidly getting into an unyieldng

condtion. Breaking through to the poleby steamer or by sledging expeditionsseems to be impracticable, and the worldwill no doubt have to wait for a comfort-able, compact airship to reach the pole

and advance our knowledge of thegeography and physics of the circumpolar

region. .Then we can laugh at the icy

deserts and murby nights of the arcticcircle.

The Methodist EcumenicalLondon reports deep interest in the

great gathering of representatives of theMethodism of the world in that city nextweek, in a world conference. This willbe the third conference of the kind, theothers having been held in London in 1881and at Washington, in 1891. They areheld, not for the exercise of ecclesiasticalauthority, but for mutual encouragement

and the stimulus of comradeship and real-ization of militant strength.

Methodism is strong in numbers and thegrowth of. wealth in the communion doesnot seem to have abated the vigor of theoriginal aggressive spirit, for Methodism,

in all its branches, is still a pioneerchurch, with its preachers penetratingevery new area of territory opened to civ-ilization throughout ' the world. JohnWesley himself set an example of aggres-sive itinerancy which has rarely beenequaled. - [, .

It is a great religious force is Method-ism. From the gathering of eight or tenpersons, who met Wesley, in London, in1739, in spiritual conference, the Methodistname has. expanded until it covers, as isestimated, between thirty and forty mil-lions of the world's population.. In thiscountry the episcopate was retained: by

the majority of the followers of Wesley,

who, with his brother Charles, lived anddied in the established church of England.He was himself, as shown in some of hissermons, "\u25a0\u25a0 opposed .to lay preachers whomhe characterized as "unauthorized intrud-ers into the office of the priesthood" whohad no right to administer the sacramentswithout, his own special ordination, * al-

I though he had called them out to preach

and visit among the organized * religious

societies, yThe movement of Wesley grewout „'of the decline of spiritual life in the

jestablished 1 church of England. - .' It drewthe element'which had sickened with bar-

[ ren formalism. W'hltefleld ; had • precededjWesley as a preacher to the hearts of men.

| Whltefield !had the gift of passionate ora-| tory, which could stir the !souls of themost illiterate miners. Wesley had the

I faculty of organization. , He knew how to> _\u25a0\u25a0» - I, -tin-.! \u25a0\u25a0\u25a0\u25a0TV ..

be an administrator of spiritual - forces.He. devised .. the ; wonderful machinery .ofMethodist organization, the leading poten-tial feature of which is the class-meet-ing, whose effectiveness has led to thecharcterlzatlon of Wesley as the "true In-ventor in religious dynamics." The non-episcopal and Episcopal Methodists boldto the same doctrines, except the WelshCalvanlstlc

1Methodist body. .

The church of England might have pre-

vented the loss of the great spiritual forceof Methodism. That force could -have been

utilized within the establishment.'« The

Roman church would have given It a fieldto work in and have retained It as a spir-itual force. Some English churchmen have

entertained the belief that Methodism mayultimately be reincorporated in the estab-lishment, but it is too late for that now.Methodism has Its own special work to

do and it is doing it well.. The brothersWesley have been honored by the churchof England in the erection of a memorialtablet to them in Westminster Abbey.

The primate of the English establishmenthas been invited to attend the ecumenicalconference which meets next week in Lon-

don. It would be consistent ,with thehonor already paid to the founders of

Methodism In the Abbey for the primateto accept the invitation to the conference.

There was something soldierlike in the

sudden death of Captain Judson N. Crossthis morning. He fell In the ranks. His

service to his family and his state, to

which he had freely given the long years

of his active and useful life, was seem-

ingly still unfinished—he was apparentlyin the midst of it, his face to the future

and his mind and, heart deeply interested

in all that makes for good, when the sud-

den summons came. Captain Cross goes

hence highly honored in the regard of his

fellow townsmen as a man and as a, citi-zen. All the respect that high character,

diligence in life's work, splendid achieve-ment and noble livingbeget were his. Heserved his country as a soldier, and wondistinction; he served his fellows in civilaffairs and is held In grateful memory for

his fidelity and efficiency. In the socialand domestic \u25a0 relations his virtues wereno less admirable and his example an in-spiration to right living. A good man hasdeparted, but the world is better for hishaving lived in It. What is there morethat one could wish to have truly said ofhimself when he is gone?

The great financial panicJ} Great that has swept over this

Commercial city, in which some of our... \u0084 strongest commercial housesLUrec/C have gone flown like domi-noes, has not attracted as much attention asmight have been expected owing to the

boom nature of the "trade and to its mush-

room character. Still the effect has beenfar-reaching.

During the early part of the spring and

summer there was great- financial activity

in Boydom. On many lots, especially cor-ners, buildings were erected whose archi-tecture resembled that of the Drygoodsbox

Rennaissance. Lemonade was one of thestandards of trade, though Pop was not un-known in the large emporiums. Chewing

gum and a few varieties of candy, some home-made, others factory made, also appeared

on the shelves. A variety of candy knownas All-Day-Suckers that Is much appreciated

in Very-Small-Boy circles was kept in stockin many places.

As the stores multiplied nearly every boy

became a proprietor and there was no oneleft to buy 'Many partners treacherously ateand drank the stock in the absence of theother party or even "set them up" freelywhen certin of the fair sex appeared. Thisresulted in many partnership quarrels and afew fights occurred in the alley. During thesedlssentlons, it often happened that the busymarts of trade were looted by Indians whobore off the plunder and ate it in the barn.

Along about the first of August collectionsbecame very difficult and money rates hardrened. There. was an uneasy feeling on thestreet that Father was likely to foreclose atany moment. In several instances Motherrefused to furnish further lemonade. Inthese cases, cards appeared on ; the storefronts announcing "Suspension pending ' thetaking count of stock." Whatever was leftwas rapidly eaten by the partners and as arule the creditors came into possession \u25a0 andgot nothing but a memory. Assignees met jdaily and heavy and reliable firms went downIn the crash. After the panic was once on,there was no stopping it. hole streets wereclosed up and the buildings often tippedover by Small Boy looters in search of somestray All-Day-Sucker - that might haveescaped the mouths of the kings' of commerce,now gone to their financial St. Helenas.

The commercial wreck now seems to becomplete. School begins Tuesday.

The decline of Chicago is the most remark-able phenomenon of the past quarter century.

According to the official records the totalassessed valuation of Chicago property in187;" was $312,072,995. In 1900 it was only$270,565,880, or $35,507,115 less than it wastwo years after the great fire which sweptaway so much wealth.

Think of it. The wealth of Chicago wasgreater in 1873 than in 1900.— Louis Post-Dispatch. ;.

Kansas City Journal.T. B. Murdock, editor of the Eldorado, Kan.,

Republican, has printed his long-promisedstory of adventures' on the plains. '; He saysIt is a true , recital of, an actual occurrence.It certainly.' is romantic enough to be themost Imaginative of ,\ fiction. In - one phaseit Indicates a dullness of perception on , thepart of Mr. Murdock that even his Intimates.had not suspected.

In 1860 Murdock went with his brother,Colonel Marsh Murdock, to Pike's Peak insearch of gold. In the fall of that year hestarted to return to !Kansas with an ox teamand • traveling alone. : hen camped on thePlatte river, just below Denver, one night ahandsome youth came riding to him on a ponyand asked permission to accompany him backto the states. Young Benton was pleasedwith the appearance of the lad and readilygranted the favor asked. For weeks theytrailed together down the Platte and theRepublican, Benton doing the heavy workand Len— lad gave his name as LenRidgway—doing the cooking. One day whenthe caravan reached the vicinity of • FortRiley, in Kansas, Leu mounted his ponyand tried to drive away some buffalo whichwere impeding the trail. He was chargedby a bull and his pony stumbled and fell,injuring the lad so seriously that he re-mained unconscious for a night and a day!Benton ran to his comrade, dashed water inhis face, tore open his'shirt—and discov-ered that Len was a girl. For a day and anight the girl was carried along in the wa-gon by Benton, who thought she was dead.Just as he was figuring on burying her in acoffin made out of ' his wagon box, however,she regained consciousness and spoke. Hetook her to Fort Riley, turned her over tothe surgeons and then wended his way alone.A, few months later he received a letterfrom her saying that she had been taken intothe family of a captain, and that she wouldsoon be going back east with-the captain'swife. This closed that part of the incident.Benton did not let her know that he haddiscovered she was a girl.In 1872 Murdock was In Washington, the

guest of Senator S. C. Pomeroy. One nightMrs. Pomeroy gave a dinner party. Amongthe guests were Miss Ames of Boston, MissHolUday of New York and Miss Pierrepontof Virginia. .Vri':' "yy'yvy* '

the district attorneyship baltj|Bp{gjJames A. Peterson was first, heard from.

He put aside the proffered support of manyfriends, declaring - that the federal job hadno charms for him.

Now comes Halvor Steenerson. The Crooks-ton man was a leading candidate for districtattorney when Robert G. Evans was chosen,and it was thought he might still look withlonging eye toward the position. His ap-pointment would clear the field in niceshape for Senator Grindeland, whose friendsbegan to urge Steenerson." Like Peterson, heput them aside, saying: y'\u25a0 :'\u25a0"/-I have noticed some mention of my name

in connection with the district attorneyship,to succeed Robert G. Evans, but I wish itto be distinctly understood that I am not acandidate for this or any other appointiveofflce in the state of Minnesota. I could nottake the place, were it offered me, withoutseriously sacrificing my business. All talkof my name in this connection is idle. Iwould like to suggest, however, that SenatorGrindeland, of Warren, is an ideal man forthe place. fHß_Bf£H*~<4|

It is about time to hear from Edward T.Young of Appleton.

It is rumored that the Minnesota senatorsmay postpone a settlement of the district at-torneyship ;until the expiration of the presentterm, next May. M..D., Purdy has alreadybeen named by the court as acting districtattorney, and if the senators failed .to act,It would leave Mr. Purdy to fill the unex-pired term. This would be a fitting acknowl-edgement of, his excellent," work."

The pressure on,both senators is so strong,however, that they will probably prefer to getthe question off their hands, once for all.

The Winona Republican and Herald, editedby a former St. Paul newspaper man whoknows a thing or two still about capitalcity politics, takes a rap at the Sheehancandidacy, and pulling aside the curtainundertakes to tell some Interesting Insidehistory of the senatorial campaign last win-ter. It says editorially:

It will make those who know the insideof the senatorial contest last winter smileto hear that;"Dar" Reese, Fred Schiffmanand Eli Warner are urging Senator Sheehan'sappointment on the ground that he was Sen-ator Clapp's skilled lieutenant and respon-sible, more than any other man, for the lat-ter's victory. Everybody who knows any-thing about it knows that if Senator Clapp'snomination had depended on a certain crowdof St Paul politicians he never would havebeen nominated. . They didn't intend heshould be nominated, and their plans went allwrong when he was nominated. But, nothaving taken the public Into their confidences,they were left in a position to pose as shrewdmanagers and to claim the honors of a hard-won fight. Only by a combination of cir-cumstances which the St. Paul crowd couldnot control did Senator * Clapp escape the"throw-down" that would have made a mem-orable chapter in the history of Minnesotapolitics.

Three members of the present legislaturehave removed from the districts they repre-sent and In the opinion of most authoritiesthey are really ineligible to serve at the extrasession. ' Senator Ryder has moved fromPolk county . back to St. Paul. SenatorsDaugherty and Sheehan have not moved fromtheir respective cities, but are outside thebounds of their senatorial districts.

The question that is troubling other mem-bers of the legislature Is, how shall theirseats be filled. Governor Van Sant is notjustified in calling a special election unless

And in the sweet converse which followed,Miss Plerrepont Informed Benton that sheknew after the accident that 'he knew shewas a girl. "I knew it," she said, "be-cause from the moment I regained conscious-ness until we parted, you were as kind tome as if I were your little sweetheart. Be-sides, you must remember that at our part-ing ,at the fort you put your arms aroundme, drew, me to you and would have kissedme"— the young rascal!—"had not the offi-cers been present. After you started to goyou returned, and, taking a plain gold ringfrom your finger, put it on mine, and yourlast word 3were, 'Keep it alwaysor till wemeet again.' Here is the ring, and I haveworn it every hour from that day to this.Boys don't usually kiss each other, nor doesone give a ring to. the other In parting."

And thus having.fully explained the man-ner in which she knew he knew, Miss Plerre-pont went on to still further revelations. Shehad been visiting relatives in Missouri, andthey had taken her to Colorado, and wouldnot let her return when she wanted to. Soshe ran away and started on the long tripalone until she came up with Mr. Murdockand his oxen. But the really romantic cli-max is -reserved by Murdock until the last.Before they had ceased handholdlng in thatdim conservatory possessed by the late Sena-tor Beans Pomeroy, it was revealed that thetwo were first cousins— being aPierrepont on his mother's side.

However, we may amiably doubt, withoutpositively refusing to accept, this last com-plication. It sounds a good deal like thecrude Involution. of a man who was strug-gling to give some acceptable reason for notmarrying the girl of his youthful adven-tures. Or, possibly," like the weird storiesa man tells his wife in account of his do-ings with maids who «ame before her. Still,these objections | are captious and largely ir-relevant, and do not weaken the charm ofMr. Murdock's narrative. -*'y'yy

some sort of a showing is made before him.He cannot act on mere rumor. If no moveis made, the three senators will retain theirseats uncontested, but should a bill be passedby their votes, and without their votes failto pass, the courts might later declare thatthe measure never became a law. It is wellto have the title of every member \u25a0 undis-puted.

The following procedure has been sug-gested: Let the voters of each senatorialdistrict present a petition to the governor,setting forth the fact .that the senatorialseat is made vacant by the removal of hesenator. The governor could then call aspecial election, and the senator so electedcould either perfect his title in the courts,or go before the senate and let that bodydetermine which was entitled to a seat, as incontestetd election cases.

There is nothing in the constitution thatdirectly bears on the question. It says:

Senators and representatives shall be qual-ified voters of the state, and shall have re-sided one year In the state and six monthsImmediately preceding the election in thedistrict from which they are elected.

This is held to mean that so long as theyrepresent the district, members must continueto reside within Its boundaries. Members ofcongress are not so restricted, and they donot have to live within the district even atthe time, of election. It is only required thatthe representative shall, "when elected, bean Inhabitant of that state in which he shallbe chosen."

Meeker county Is said to desire a specialelection to fill the vacancy caused by thedeath of J. W. Torrey. The governor's officehas no notice of that fact, and the governorcannot call a special election without somekind of request from the county.

The Elbow Lake Tribune, which prema-turely started the Jacobson fireworks, nowadmits where it got the matches. An honestconfession merits forgiveness. Here it" Is:'

Two weeks ago, this paper announced thatJ. F. Jacobson was a candidate for congress.The Minneapolis Journal says . that Mr. Ja-cobson and his friends deny the truthfulnessof the statement. We have only this to say,that we got the Information from HermanHillmond, who gave it on the authority ofRepresentative Stark, of Chisago county. Forthis reason, we thought we had It prettystraight. ; We understand that Mr. Stark wasone of Jacobson's adherents last winter.Either the gentleman had it as a mere rumoror else he Is In possession of inside informa-tion that is not yet ripe for publication. Inany event, "Jake" is the best man now in therepublican ranks in this district, for congressor any other old place.

Mr. Shevlln takes exceptions to statementsemanating from Washington calculated toconvey the Impression that he and Evanswere not on friendly terms. He cites therecent personal and social relations betweenMr. Evans and himself as sufficient refuta-tion of the charge, but declines to discussthe question further.

STRAW HORSESHOESThe praiseworthy fashion of providing the

horses with straw hats as a guard against thesun is growing. But while there is benefitin adopting this custom it Is hardly likelythe Japanese idea of horseshoes will ever be-come common here, though it may havemuch to recommend It There straw insteadof iron Is employed for the purpose. Theshoes are made of ordinary rice straw braidedvery tight and firm, making a surface thesize of the -horse's foot and about half anInch thick. They cost a cent a pair andwhen worn out are thrown away.

When the door closed behind "Him" shewent over to the library table, pulled but adrawer, took from it a small calendar, sighedsoftly, then marked the last day of ' themonth. She stared thoughtfullyat the markas she made It, and turned back the monthsthat had gone . since the ' first of the year.It made her think of the year they were mar-ried— was not many years . ago. .She laidthe calendar aside and fished out another andanother—until that first year's lay in herhand. That made her sigh again, for on thedates in that first year's calendar there wereno pencil marks to indicate the .evening shehad spent alone. That was before baby came,before he had become a little lion in the lit-erary world. Society had not then taken himunder culture, but now it had. He was goingto be a big lion some day, he said. She won-dered if he would regret marrying such a.spiritless little lioness. She wept dismally.

He used to ask her—it seemed years ago,now—to go out with him, to be lionized. Butthere was the baby, so she had refused. Butbabies do not always need close attention,nurse could well take care of her, but nowhe never asked. •. .

She laid the little calendars face downward.With them out of sight she could pity him.It did seem' hard to - write all day with athousand things to annoy him. He was enti-tled to his recreation— recreation of listen-ing to those who could appreciate his work.\u25a0She felt her own inability to say brightthings, and she hated the heroine and thehero. She wanted to choke them both at theend of the first chapter— reclaim "Him"from the tangle of their 200-odd pages of ex-istence.

And to-night she was to be alone again.She went Into the kitchen of the little flatand dismissed the girl. Then she brought her3-year-old Into the library, and eat before thefireplace wlfh the child on her knee.

"Now we will finish the story of the fairyprincess and the wicked giant," . she said,turning over the leaves of the story book.

The child nodded vigorously."But the princess did not get hurt,.when

she fell from the castle wall, Edith, you re-member that?" the mother Inquired.

"No, mama, taus if she is hurt, you'd ky,"said the youngster. ':*>\u25a0;

"I cry? Why, Edith?""Taus you is the princess.""Me? Indeed, I am no princess, Edith."

She sighed to think of other days when shewas a queen, a tinseled one, true, In the firstrow. Five? Six? It did not seem so manyyears ago. ~

"Mama, you is the princess, isn't you?"The little girl was on the verge of tears.

The new people in the flat across the hallwere beginning to move about. ' The motherlistened. ... The child sat with suspended fore-finger. Presently they both heard some oneplaying. The fingers rippled up and down thekeys, then struck up a march from a- comicopera. The execution was not perfect, but thetime was excellent The mother's feet itchedfor movement. Then the music changed to agavotte, then to a skirt dance. Suddenly itstopped.

The mother sighed. For a moment she hadbeen back in the old days. The swish ofgauzy skirts was In her ears, the smearymake-up box stood before her eyes, and theold life and fun she had known from girlhoodcam? back.

"Ifyou ain't a princess, you's a fairy," ar-gued the child tenaciously.

A fairy? Some people used to think so."Yes, I am a fairy! Do you want to see a

fairy-mama, Edith?"The child shouted with delight."All right, sit here. Don't look around,

and I'llgo back to fairyland, and see."She flew Into her dressing-room, opened

old trunks, pulled out old slippers and balletfinery.

BUREAU OF THE JOURNAL, |No. 21 Park Row, New York-

Wall Street Feels Better.Aug. 31.—Wheat Is to prove the salvation of

the stock market for at least the year tocome. About 300,000,000 bushels of wheat willbe exported to foreign countries during thepresent governmental year, and the oratorsof Wall street are already deliberating as towhat shall be done with the returns. In pur-suit of-this pleasant pastime the street natu-rally grows enthusiastic, enlarging on na- itional prosperity to J such an extent that allrecollection of the partial failure of the cornand other crops is practically wiped out.Since it Is now an easy matter to calculatewith reasonable certainty on the agriculturalproductions for the year and make intelligentestimates for the future, the preachers ofprosperity have the floor and the calamityhowlers are compelled to flock together Inmiserable minorities to keep themselves com-pany. And it Is only natural that Wall streetshould take the hopeful view. It is the cen-ter of production of securities based' on thecountry's development, which securities, ofcourse, could find no market if the timespromised to be bad. Yet, though It is to thoInterest of the street to take the brighterview, when depression really supplants pros-perity the temper of the financial districtchanges, for It is literally the barometer ofthe country's condition, fluctuating withevery change in the financial weather. ThatWall street should be cheerful In anticipationof another year of the "full dinner pall" cansafely be taken as a sign that a possibleslump Is still a remote contingency. In con-sequence, new life is being Infused Into theStock Exchange. The pressure of offeringsof securities has entirely disappeared, andthe syndicates are relieved of the necessityof standing guard to protect their pets fromthe panicky colic.

One of the chief puzzlers for the real estatemen of the metropolis is whether or not thefashionable residential growth of Fifth avenuewill extend beyond One-Hundredth street. Atthat point the line of growth seems to be In-terrupted by the Hebrew hospital Improve-ments, yet practically as insuperable an ob-stacle seemed to'preclude its extension beyondNinetieth street. When the Ruppert mansionwas built at Ninety-third street there werevery few real estate men astute enough toagree with Mr. Ruppert that he was locatinghis dwelling In what would yet prove a highgrade residence center,: and not until AndrewCarnegie purchased the block and a half ofavenue front at Ninetieth and Nlnety-flratstreet and began the erection of his $1,500,000residence was all skepticism removed. Sincethen, however, not only have private individ-uals been eager to purchase residence plotsin the nineties as well as the eighties, butspeculative builders, quick to rush In, havesecured practically' everything left. Makingcapital of the certainty of future develop-ment, the speculators have almost Invariablymade improvements'. on the lots purchased.The result is they have been repaid promptlyfor their foresight, * most of their Improve-ments having been sold at handsome figuresconsiderably before completion. In fact, whatis popularly i known as the "western colony"In • Millionaires' ', row is located betweenEighty-seventh and Ninety-fifth streets. - Ofcourse westerners, and far westerners at that,can be found scattered '\u25a0', all up and down theavenue,, but In no single section are they"bunched" 'together to such an extent asbetween the streets named. When' one bearsIn. mind the immense sums the financialgiants pay for their residences proper, it dotsnot seem likelyjthat the presence of hospitalimprovements .;at "\u25a0 One-Hundredth street .willkeep them from following the avenue out tothe full limit of the park front whenever the

Ipurchasable property, below that limit be-jcomes exhausted. :'y

Fifth Avenue Is a Wonder.

Chinese Farms.

Chinese farms within the limits of Greater[ New York are one of the curiosities offered bythe metropolis to the Sunday recreation seek-er ; and those to whom the unusual and- thebizarre* are always :welcome sights." On' Longisland, near ; the ! Steinway road and . Ninety-second ( street," Astoria, are three 'of "theseunique oriental farms, each of which Is to allappearance -a: portion of *China transplantedto .this' side,'. affording one of the most 1pic-turesque sights of rural native life to be seenoutside of' the _" flowery \kingdom itself. \Onthe r farms a typical, colony of ; native farmersdwell In primitive huts and raise nothing" buttheir ? own* peculiar vegetables " in*their, own ;

The make-up box she handled tenderly."From ;Ned" it was Inscribed. Ned? Shepaused. What had ever become of him? Theyhad quarreled, he drank so, and she -hadbegged him to give It up. Then— shewas • too . deadly r respectable, he said.

She found the make-up paint hard to work,but in half an hour she crept softly into thelibrary behind the child. Bending over thesleepy head she clasped the wee hands andawoke the baby with a kiss.

"You, my mama?" The child turned, half-fearfully. "Is you my mama?"

"Yes, dear. I am a fairy mama now."The player next door struck up a double

shuffle. The little woman broke Into thestep with a toss of her head. It was ludic-rous, of course. "He" would have thoughther crazy, but the baby enjoyed It, watchedher with dancing eyes, keeping tremuloustime with its little feet The mother dancedon. The days of yore had come back. Shewas before the glaring lights. Presently shestopped, out of breath. In her ears rangthe echo of old-time applause. She laughedhysterically and kissed the child. Tears rolledon the grease paint

"You ain't my mama. You's little-girlfairy; my mama's a great big fairy," thechild said. The little woman laughed again.She wished—no,. If "He" was present hewould not understand. He had changed somuch—since the days he used to hang aroundthe stage door for her to appear.

The music In the adjoining flat trailedaway Into silence. Then a woman's voice,humming lightly, came across the hall. Andagain silence. They were closing the pianoand turning out the parlor lights.

The mother stood like one transfixed In thecenter of the library. The laughter died onher lips. She looked down at her beruffledskirts, which had suddenly turned flimsy andtawdry. Then a hard, dry laugh rose In herthroat. Yes, that was the way they alldropped from her, the illusions of her youthand her love.

The child lay on the great leather couch,blinking sleepily at her "fairy mama." Thelong lashes drooped, and a happy smile creptround the baby mouth. ..' She was in fairylandIn truth. With a sob the mother flung herselfbeside the couch and clasped the dimpledhand in hers. This at least was her own,something real, something tangible and last-ing, the blessed mother-love.

And so "He" found them three hours later,when he returned with the smiles of fairwomen still dazzling his eyes, and theirfairer words still ringing in his ears. Hebent over her wth a frown, but when he sawthe tiny furrows which the tsars had madethrough the grease paint, his eyes softened.Then he walked to the table and picked upthe calendars. His brow was puckered as hestudied the queer pencil marks, until hefound the last one. Then he remembered theday. He turned abruptly toward the gracefulfigure crouched by the baby form, theirtwo hands tightly clasped. A mist passedbefore his eyes, and when It was gone heno longer saw the fair,, flattering faces of theballroom. He was back at the stage door ofthe theater waiting for Her.

She started suddenly and found herself inher husband's arms. He was smiling Intoher eyes, the sort of smile that carried herback to that first year.

"What sort of game is this, Bess?" heasked.

She flushed under the rouge and stammered:"I was—the baby and I—have been taking

a trip to fairyland—""And the prince came along Just In time

to wake up the princess," he murmured, witha low laugh that made her think more andmore of that first year. And when shelooked Into his eves, with a sudden Impulseshe flung her arms about his neck and whis-pered smilingly:

"I'm so glad I-waited for the prince."And he, looking across the table at the

scattered calendars, understood.

I It Is said thatthese Chinamen produce fully one-third moreto the acre than their white neighbors.

Queen Bees on Their Travels.

From fifteen to twenty thousand queen beesare shipped through the mails by New Yorkdealers every year. They go to all parts ofthe United States, and Canada, Cuba andJamaica, and in several instances they havebeen shipped as far away as Australia. Themethod of packing bees for shipment throughthe mails is very Interesting. A block ofwood about four Inches in length and oneinch wide and half an inch thick is used.Into this are bored throe circular chambers,each of which opens Into the other. In onechamber a combination of sugar and honeyis placed to serve as food for the Journey.Over the top of the circular chambers a pieceof wire netting is fastened, and in the 'endof the block farthest from the "pantry" asmall opening is made through which thequeen bee and her companion "workers" areintroduced. There are generally, fifteen ortwenty of the latter and their duty Is tokeep her majesty well fed and cheerfullyentertained during the Journey. The hole thenIs likewise covered with netting, after whichthe company is ready for Its Journey. Thusprepared against injury and starvation, the,,bees will live for about two weeks thoughon a number of occasions several of themhave been known to survive as long as fourweeks. The prices of the queen bees vary. Asa rule they are expensive, the lowest pricefor one being $1. From this figure the priceof queens range up to $6, the latter price,however, being for the finest quality of Im-ported bee. . s •.- ,y

WHAT THE FAIROFFERS WOMEN VISITORS

Preparations Made by the Minnesota Federa-tion of Women's Clubs at the HeadquartersBuilding—Musical Programs of the Week.

No woman who realizes the attractive-ness of the women's headquarters at thestate fair and the opportunities for com-fort and rest as well as the social pleas-ures offered will fall to accept the cor-dial invitation of the Minnesota Federa-tion of Women's clubs to spend as muchtime In the handsome club building as shecan spare from other things. The fed-eration at fair time, through arrangementwith the fair board, acts as hostess for thewomen of the state, providing for the com-fort and entertainment of the women vis-itors.

The building used for the women's head-quarters Is the old driving club building, acommodious brown house beside the racetrack to the right of the grand stand. It'will be conspicuously labelled next weekso that no one will have a good excuse !for missing it. The house will be opento visitors all of the week but on Mon-day there will be no exercises and ribfederation reception committee on ac-count of the Roosevelt luncheon.

Much misapprehension has arisen overthis luncheon that has been annoyingboth to the members of the state faircommittee appointed by the- federation and ]to the officers of the state federation. Theluncheon is to be given by the State**Agricultural society, which manages thefair and the federation has no responsi-bility or part in it. The Driving clubbuilding is the only place on the groundssuitable for such a function and the fed-eration gave up the building for that dayto the society. Two of the federationcommittee members, Mrs. Anna B. Un-derwoo, chairman, and Mrs. W. M. Lig-gett are wives of members of the Agri-cultural society board and in their per-sonal capacity have assisted in the ar-rangements. Their services and the use jof the building caused the first confusionend this was quite natural and unavoid-able.

The federation officers and the state faircommittee were much astonished thisweek and quite distressed, when the invi-tations for the luncheon had been sent outto find that through some blunder of theagricultural society committee they hadbeen Issued in the name of the state fed-eration.

Beginning Tuesday, the headquartersbuilding will be the scene of a continuousperformance of instructive and entertain-ing programs. Every morning at 9 o'clocka demonstration lecture on cookery willbe given by Miss Juniata L. Shepperd ofthe state agricultural school. At 10:30each day there willbe a program on sometopic of general interest to women in-cluding town and village improvement,education, libraries, art, etc., directed bywomen of prominence in the state.Philanthropy and mental improvement arelaid aside in the afternoon and in theirplace are provided programs whose artis-tic qualities make them delightful butwhich also have an educational value.The musical programs arranged by Mrs.C, G. Titcomb for the afternoons willbe provided by the leading artists of Min-neapolis and St. Paul who generously givetheir services, often at much inconveni-ence to themselves.

The programs are given in the basementand on the second floor and do not in anyway Interfere with the use of the buildingfor social purposes and the display ofseveral Important educational exhibits allthrough the day. The only exhibits per-mitted In the building are those of aneducational nature solicited by the fed-eration subcommittees. There will be .an arts and crafts exhibit secured by Mrs.W. A. Hall of the federation art commit-tee. Nearly all of the skilled workersin Minneapolis will send specimens ofwork in carved and burnt wood, stainedglass windows and designs for them,china, painted glass, sculpture, painting,screens and wall decorations. In addi-tion to sending some of his own pictures,Robert Koehler will send a collection ofwork from the Minneapolis School of FineArts . A collection of the basketry workfrom -the public schools sent by Miss HelenMaxwell will prove very interesting, asno other recent introduction in manualwork has given so much pleasure.

Mrs. Oonde Hamlin of St. Paul is provid-ing a similar collection of arts and craftswork from St. Paul and she will presideover the art program on Wednesday.

There -will be sample libraries shownand library experts present to talk withthoso interested in library problems. .Practical work in town and village im-provement will be shown by the woman's <auxiliary of the state horticultural societyby means of photographs and plats illus- 'trating the management of a variety of 'grounds. The model sickroom will be In ,charge of the Women's Medical club of ,Minneapolis this year. The fully equippedroom will be in charge of a professionalnurse who will not only be prepared totake oare of emergency cases but to give 'Information to visitors. ;

The birds' nest exhibit last year was

one of the most Interesting and this willbe much enlarged and improved this year.This will also be in charge of the auxil-iary to the horticultural society. Ashool exhibit will be directed by Mrs.' H.S. Baker assisted by Miss Clum.

The comfort side of affairs will be takencare of by providing plenty of comfortablechairs in pleasant surroundings and bychecking wraps and packages free. Thesocial side will be in charge of Mrs. L. P.Williams, president of the state federationwho will act as chairman of the receptioncommittee and will be present each day

MRS. D. L. KINGSBURY.Member of State Fair Committee.

with a large staff of assisting women whowillwelcome all viators and see that theyenjoy all of the pleasures of the clubhouse.Each afternoon between four and six, aft-ernoon tea will be served on the mainfloor. This feature will be directed byMrs. D. L. Kingsbury.

The point upon which tho federationlays especial emphasis is that there is nofee for admittance to the building. In theafternoon the verandas overlooking therace track will be closed to everyone, butthe rest of the building will be open forfree use for the purpose to which it isdevoted, i. c., the entertainment of th©women visitors.

Correspondence of The Journal. 'Big Timber, Mont., Aug. 25.—1t was a

lovely morning, cool and bracingan idealday for an outing. This was the mo-mentous day of the Big Timber Ladies'Fishing Club excursion, and of course allwere up early. By all, is meant Mines.Simmons, Guerney. Kellogg and Robert-son, who constitute the membership ofthe club. It had been planned to spend

i a day with Mines. G. A. Loasley, fishingI for the speckled beauties, in the Boulder| river, about seventeen miles south ofI town. y.r

We were off at 6 a. m., it falling toMrs. Simmons to collect th passengers,

I all of whom evidently believed in the ]' adage, "the early bird catches the worm,"to which should have been added, "andthe fish." Just at the edge of town oneof the ladies exclaimed: "I've forgottenmy rod," and as that is a rather im- Iportant article, on a fishing excursion,steps were retraced and we were soonagain on our way with rods, rubberboots and luncheon, all tucked in.

"Myhusband was so unkind," began oneof the ladies; "he was really so cruel asto ask whether he shouldn't purchase astring ci fish and send them out to meetus on our return trip. A fishing club,just fancy!"

"Just like a man," said Mrs. Kellogg,

J "because they do things like that them-I selves, they think we would. I'd have) them know our club Is the soul of truth

and honor."It had been cloudy earlier in the morn-

ing, but the sun seemed to have driventhe clouds away and changed them Intomasses of pink and gold as we drovethrough the morning air. How fresh andbeautiful it all seemed!

The beauty of it all kept us silent (now

no remarks, for methinks, I hear someman say in a sarcastic voice "Remark-able achievement," at all events we cancheerfully respond it wasn't the only oneof the day as he shall, see.)

Mann Dedicated Them.

MONTANA WOMENHAVE A FISHING CLUB

Spend Whole Days Trout Fishing Unaided by Men, and Bring Back

Big Baskets of Fish as the Proof of Their Stories.

The woman for whom Robert Schumann'sdelicately imaginative Phantasie Stucke werewritten has just passed away at the age of81. .Anna Robina Laidlaw (Mrs. Thompson)was court pianist to the queen of Hanover,and had in her time played before most of theEuropean sovereigns.

Her father was a wealthy Scotch landownerand the friend of Sir Walter Scott, but. losinghis money, he went to Germany to live. Hisdaughter, Anna Robina, studied music underLudwig Berger, and then began what. in*those days was a very marvelous career fora yourg girl. Robert Schumann heard herplay at Leipsic and I'nen followed one of thosemusical friendships which on the composer'sside ripened into something very nearlyakin to love.

„ When Miss Laidlaw left she had a letterfrom her admirer which ran:

"The remembrance of your stay here willalways be a most.beautiful one to me, andthat what I write is true you will see ineight Phantasie Stucke which will soon ap-pear bearing your name upon their forehead.It is true I have not asked your permissionto make this dedication, but to you they be- ,long and the whole romantic history of theRosenthal Is described in the music.*'

All the chief musical celebrities of thosetimes were amongst her friends— Mario,

I Lablanche, Tambourini, Rubini, Wagner,Ole Bull, Sainton, Meyerbeer, the youngerMozart and Taubert, who wrote some of hiscompositions for her. She played at one ofPaganini's coi certs when she was only 14,and he said she was the most magical of theplayers. Mayer wrote to her once, "I hereGod will always be in your heart, and thedevil In your fingers." In the last days ofWilliam IV. Miss Laidlaw played at St. Jamesand was complimented by the old king on herlooks as well as on her playing. The old

,Emperor William and his empress loved her.and the Russian court was almost a home tothe talented Scotswoman. In her latter daysMrs. Thomson lived the most retired of livesin her daughter's home at Bayswater; shenever played and rarely talked about modernmusic. She was a very bright and most in-telligent old lady, an excellent linguist andmuch interested In chiromancy and astrology.

west. The bed of the river is all rock,and in most places wide and shallow,making excellent places to cast from thelarge boulders in the middle of thestream. We, soon scattered, each choos-ing "the best place."

A shore dinned had been planned andfrying pans were brought from the car-riage together with the more certainlunch we had prepared. At 1 o'clock allhad gathered for dinner, the fry pansproving very useful, for after servingever so many trout, about a dozen wereconsigned to the fish-basket. Mrs. Sim-mons suggested that roll call be re-sponded to by the number of fish caught,whereat Mrs. Robertson unconsciouslygave herself away by strenuous objec-tions. Mrs. Guerney's silence was on Mrs.Robertson's account.

At 6 o'clock we met again at the homeof Mrs. Gillett, who entertained us attea. Mrs. Lcasley was late in appear-ing, but what does she carry! Surely itis a young whale.

"Oh, it is so heavy," she panted, "I'm |sure its an eight-pounder."

"We keep scales on hand to settle |just such weighty matters," said Mrs. Gil- jlett. What a magnificent trout it was to be !sure; tipped the scales at exactly seven :

pounds. Tea. was delightful both because '

we were hungry and because of its dainti-ness and delicacy.

Before the meal was over Mrs. Simmons iappeared with fifteen good sized trout and ithe merry group was complete. What 'fun and laughter went round that hospita- jble board. Mrs. Loasly was made an !honorary member of the club on account jof her achievement. Mrs. Gillett's name jwas proposed, but as she never went fish- !ing in her life and always shuts her eyes Jand turns her back when a fish is taken jfrom a hook, she was disqualified. "But \u25a0

she can cook them to a turn if she can't jcatch them," said Mrs. Robertson to which jwe all agreed.

All of the business of the club com-pleted and new member initiated -it wasdecided to adjourn and return home andsuiting the action to the word, all wassoon bustle getting together rods andbooks and packing empty lunch basketsand full fish baskets. Finally all was inand good byes said and we started on ourdrive through the twilight. We bad spenta jolly, happy and profitable day, havingcaught in all forty-eight of the finny tribe,which made indeed a pretty kettle of fish.

Each day brings the announcement of awedding and there is every prospect thatthe number of September and Octoberbrides will rival the small army of Mayand June. A wedding means a weddingpresent and the shops are besieged byanxious relatives trying to rememberwhat it was -that Jerusha expressed a pre-ference. It not infrequently happensthat Jerusha has examined silver', crystaland bric-a-brac and has requested theshopmen to show certain silver to richUncle Elias and a special bowl of cutglass to wealthy Aunt Seraphine. Thesesame shopmen could tell interesting stor-ies in regard to wedding presents if theydid not believe that discretion meant fu-ture sales, while loquacity was synony-mous for a corresponding loss in trade.

In selecting a wedding gift one shouldbear in mind three things: First.the tasteand future environment of the bride; sec-ond, the durability of the article chosen,for" each gift should carry its messagedown through the years to come; third,the artistic excellence of the thing chosen!whether it be a sugar spoon or a chest ofsilver.

j There are not as many new things ini the shops for the fall brides as there werejfor those of the spring. The wedding

; trade is catered to by the manufacturers in| April and goods are .made up for this pur-• pose. In the fall the factories are busy| with the Christmas trade and there isIno time to consider the bride. If herjwedding is too early for her gifts to bei purchased from the holiday assortment| they will have to be chosen from whatjwas sent out in the spring.

It is an old English custom and ratheri a pretty one that only the members ofjthe family may furnish the bridal couple

l with their household plenishings, thei linen, silver and crystal that is in dailyuse. This leaves only the more orna-mental bits, the bric-a-brac, pictures, andsmall pieces of furniture, chairs andtables, for the friends to give. The adop-tion of this custom will annoy those whoare accustomed to going into the shop andbuying a spoon of the same pattern .forevery bride. As one woman said the otherday: "I have bought nearly two dozenof those berry spoons and I am not tiredof the pattern yet."

The Martele is the new silver this falland each piece is an art treasure. It was| introduced to the general public at theParis exposition and has just been broughtover" the water. Each piece is individualand there are no duplicates. A flat pieceof silver is hammered into shape and themarks of the hammer are seen indistinct-ly under the surface. The flowers thatare in relief against this hand wroughtsurface are exquisitely modeled everycurve of the petals, every line of the leavesbeing brought out by the hand of an art-ist. A coffee service of four pieces potsugar, creamer and tray, had the fleur delis as a motif and there is the suggestionof waves in the handling of the silver.The handle of the coffee pot Is not weldedon but is a continuation of the silver1 thatforms the pot. The cost of this exquisiteservice is just $300, but it will outlivemany a cheaper one.

The Sheffield plate which was found onthe sideboard of our grandmothers hasbeen recalled to favor and promises toplay an important part in the display ofbridal gifts. It comes In trays, dishes,tureens, and pots and the young house-keeper willfind it as durable as her great-'grandmother did. The quaint old shapeshave been revived to the Joy of the loverof antiques who finds nothing of a laterdesign than 1800 beautiful.

Kaiserzinn retains its popularity andthe shopmen declare that It is almost Im-possible to keep a stock in the store. Itis handsome, durable and inexpensive,three things which appeal to the buyer ofwedding gifts.

The variety of silver spoons, forks andsets is endless and the bride will be pro-vided for from oatmeal in the morning tocoffee and cordials after dinner. Theyalso are heavy with flowers and the dayof the colonial simplicty seems to havepassed, as far as silver is concerned.

Crystal has taken the place of cut glassfor tumblers, punch and sherbet glassesand they come on standards after thefashion of twenty years ago. They areengraved in graceful fashion and are justas expensive as the heavy cut glass. Oneset of champaign glasses, tall and slen-der, has a price mark of $40 for the dozen.A water set of the same crystal shows thetumblers poised sa airily on their delicatestandards that one dislikes to even thinkof their being handled by the careless

.fingers of a maid.It is really surprising the number of

beautiful' things that the Minneapolis

ITALIAN GIRLS' SCHOOLEnjoy the Personal Patronage and

Support of Queen Marherlla.Many of the schools in Rome, Florence, and

other educational Italian centers,' are underthe personal patronage and support "of ex-Queen .Margherita. -The technical training ofgirls has always .especially" appealed' to her,and the. school" named after' her In Rome,where the pupils are taught all kinds of do-mestic work and art embroidery, is one ofher favorite hobbies.

The Marianna Dionigi Royal Technicalschool for girls contains a fine collection ofphotographs of .leaves, flowers and fruits,which the girls use- as copies for their laceand embroidery. These photographs were agilt from the queen. Another of her maj-esty's pet schools is that of the SantissimaAnnunziata, in Florence, where for genera-tions the young princesses of Italian familieshavo been educated. This is charmingly sit-uted on the hills above the city, the housebeing one of the royal villas.

The portrait of Queen Margherita, inscribedto "my dear pupils," is in one of the rooms,and the queen herself often spends an after-noon with them, criticizing their drawingsand literary attempts. In Florence there isalso one of the technical schools founded byyoung Prince Ginori-Conti, a noted socialworker in the garden city.'. Besides these edu-cational institutions, the queen also takesunder her care many which shelter the deafand dumb, the blind and the afflicted littleones of her country.

In hanging pictures it is to be remem-bered that although oil paintings lookbetter hung in the usual way, with asloping in from the top to the wall atthe bottom, yet etching and water colorsoften look better hung flat against thewall. A picture with shadows should, Ifpossible, have the light side nearest thewindows, so that the shadows will fallnaturally. Pictures do not necessarilycome in pairs, and although often twopictures similar in size and subject mayfind convenient places on correspondingparts of the wall, yet quite as often thestiff effect by "pairs" or "companionpieces" takes away the artistic value ofboth pieces. Paintings or any picturesshould not be hung so high that it Is un-comfortable to look at them, but somepictures are of such large design or bril-liant color that they look much betterhung high up than down lower. Mould-ings are much better to hang picturesfrom than nails in the wall, and are notvery expensive to put up.

Somebody has called It "cellaritis"—thatmysterious cause of untraceable outbreaks ofdisease, diphtheria, scarlet fever, typhoid,etc., in families—and the name is often cor-rectly applied, for out of the cellar, if greatcare is not taken, comes many an unsuspectedill. Mr. Wingate, the sanitary expert, saysno house can be healthy that stands on wetfeet, meaning that dampness in the cellar isdisease upstairs.

In no one way may the housekeeper betterwork for the "ounce of prevention", so muchbetter than the. "pound of cure" than in aconstant vigilance in her cellar. It should beaired daily, but not at night in summer, sothe authorities say, .because the cooler airentering and meeting warmer air, producescondensation, and, therefore, undesirablemoisture. If possible, let sunshine in often —,

Nothing could be more harmful or deadly, \indeed, than such an arrangement.

There should be no unexplored holes, no iundisturbed rubbish piles in the cellar, nota single decaying vegetable, not a scrap ofold cloth left to gather mold, no accumula- ;

See thatthe furnace is cleaned out, pipes taken downand cleaned, shaker, poker and shovel putinside in order not to be buried under thetons of coal that may be put in during thesummer, and, above all, the water pan ofthe furnace inspected to be sure that it is notcorroding from rust.

importers have. There are pieces from allof the royal factories, each piece markedby the artist who mad© it and no twoalike. There are exclusive patterns inglass and metal and odd little bronzes andmarbles. The one who buys these forthe bride may be sure that his gift will |not be duplicated and it will have a valuethat a piece of stock goods willnever ob-tain.

People who purchase wedding gifts us-ually buy certain things. One man alwayshunts up something in oriental rugs ordraperies; another haunts the junk shopsfor an antique to be polished and refin-ished as his offering; silver is th© cholcaof Mrs. Blink and Mrs. Blank alwaysbuys china. This is so true that on look-ing over the display of wedding gifts onecan frequently tell who sent certainthings. There is one young man in townwho telephones to a picture store as soonas he receives an invitation to a wed-ding. He never knows just what picturehe wants but leaves word "to frame upwhatever is selling best," and that Iswhy his friends always receive pictures.

Wedding presents usually run along th©same line and ifone bride has a profusionof silver another will have cut glass.On© of the June brides, whose fondnessfor colonial furniture was known to herfriends, counted thirteen old tables, butso far the number has not proved un-lucky. The duplicates are always amus-ing, although the bride Is sadly puzzledin regard to them. She does not wantto exchange them and at the same timeit is rather foolish to have eighteen bigcut glass bowls in the tiny pantry of asmall flat. One of the girls who wentwest to be married has b"en showeredwith purses of all hi*-' Her friendswanted to give h^'y.-''*.- 'g personal,something that :. -', < n ..'.. y»-.• levery dayin the far awa;y-yy,y - hich shewas going, and \y.rV , ;J: *jy unitedon purses.

The man or woman who has a fondnessfor pretty dishes finds a bewildering va-riety from which to select gifts. Half adozen dainty bread and butter plates,fruit plates, odd little dishes for relishes,and the more pretentious large platesand platters will be a welcome additionto any bride's collection.

CANADA'S NEW TRANS-CONTINENTAL ROAD.It is already operating over 1,000 miles of road, partly in Minnesota.

THE CANADIAN NORTHERN'S LINE, PARTLY UNFINISHED FROM WINNIPEG TO PORT ARTHUR.

SATURDAY EVENING; AUGUST 31, 1901; j

From a Staff Correspondent.

Port Arthur, Out., Aug. 24.—Frequent

reference has been made in these lettersto the plans and work of th© CanadianNorthern railway, but the railroad sys-

tem* it controls has grown to such pro-portions and means so much to westernand eventually, perhaps, to the whole ofCanada, that it requires special atten-tion. In a general way, this companylooks forward to the ultimate construc-tion of a second Canadian transcontinen-tal railway. As to the portions west ofManitoba and east of Port Arthur, theplans are as yet very vague, but in theportion where active work is now beingprosecuted there are certain very definiteends in view which are being realized asrapidly as possible.

The Canadian Northern Railway com-pany has certain officials who reside inToronto, but they are now mere figure-heads. The real Canadian Northern or-ganization at present Is the contractingfirm of McKenzie, Mann & Co. It is com-posed principally of William McKenzie,D. D. Mann and R. J. McKenzie, son ofWilliam; all of Toronto. This firm hasbeen scheming for years to build and con- jtrol a great railway system. Their planshave been balked from time to time, andvarious obstacles have been encountered,but. they are now on the highway to suc-cess It is something like twelve yearsiince there was first located an independ-ent, line of railway between Lake Su-perior and Winnipeg, but this year willsee the rails connected through, all ofthe work having been done In th© lastthree years. The new railway has re-ceived great governmental encouragementfrom the Dominion, Ontario and Mani-toba governments. The two first-namedhave been Interested chiefly because theywished to develop the country. The Mani-toba government has had the additionalmotive of a desire for active competitionwith the Canadian Pacific railway, which,to hear some Manltobans talk, one mightthink the chief handicap to the properdevelopment of the province.

Some Fat Subsidies.The general government has testified to

Its.interest in the project by giving It asubsidy of about $6,400 a mile. .

The Ontario government has given evi-dence of its interest by adding a subsidyof about $3,200 a mile, both of these sub-sidles applying only to that portion ofthe road which lies within Ontario, some280 of the 487 miles between Port Arthurand Winnipeg.

There is, of course, no subsidy cover-ing that portion of the road which liesin Minnesota; neither is there any directsubside in Manitoba.

But the Manitoba government guar-antees the company's bonds, which isenough in itself to assure the completionof the railroad, as it removed .all diffi-culty in raising funds for construction, j

There are some provisos in connectionwith the subsidies depending upon cost

per mile of construction, but it is a goodguess that McKenzie, Mann & Co., will seeto it that those provisos do not interferewith the getting of the limit of the sub-sidles. In fact these subsidies are suffi-cient to pay for the building of the largerpart of the road in Ontario, for whilethere are some parts of the line that itmay cost as high as $30,000 a mile tobuild, there are others which can bebuilt for $5,000, and taken as a whole thework is light.

Physical Features of the Line.

From Port Arthur west the new lineclimbs up to the height of land along theKamlnlstiquia river and its tributarieson the west. The height is attained sev-enty-eight miles west where the altitudeis 1,507 feet above the sea and almost duewest to the headwaters of the Atikokanriver to Rainy Lake, which it skirts toriver 1 and along the north shore of thatriver to Rainy Lake, which It skirts tothe Rainy river to Beaver Mills, sixty-lake near Fort Francis on a trestle aboutthree miles long. The line follows downthe Rainy River to Beaver Mills, sixty-two miles from the lake where it crossesinto Minnesota at Beaudette over a mas-sive steel bridge. It swings around thesouthern end of Lake of the Woods, run-ning for about fifty miles in Minnesotaand then northwest of War Cloud turnsinto Manitoba; thence it runs almost duenortheast to Winnipeg.

Going east the maximum rising gradeis only 1 per cent and there Is verylittle of that. Going west the maximumIs .5 per cent. Climbing to the summitfrom Lake Superior scarcely anything inheight is lost once it Is gained. Goingeast from Rainy lake about sixty feet ofa rise is lost along the Seine river". Themaximum curvature is somewhat high,being eight degrees, but there is verylittle such curvature and It is all on levelgrades. The first part of the road west ofPort Arthur Is rather crooked, havingbeen built before the company was so welloff as it is now and will doubtless standsome rebuilding later on.

The engineering on this line comparesvery favorably with that on the CanadianPacific between Lake Superior and Win-nipeg. By taking a general route whichbrings it to the south of Lake of theWoods, the new line has been able tofollow the water courses and keep in thevalleys. The Canadian Pacific, on theother hand, strikes across country with afine scorn for natural routes, and is, con-sequently, a very much up-and-downroute.

Most of the "Work Done.

The track is now laid for 160 miles westfrom Port Arthur and for about the samedistance east from Winnipeg, leavingsomething over a hundred miles to laythis season. As the grade is well up be-yond the end of the track, it looks as ifthe line should be connected before snowflies. The difficulty in getting labor is,however, seriously impeding progress, andmay put off the connection of the rails to

a date later than Oct. 15, now figuredon. There are about 3,500 men now atwork on the line and several hundredsmore could be used to advantage.

It is claimed for the new railroad thatItopens up a country that is on the wholebetter than the corresponding part of theCanadian Pacific. Of the rich agricul-tural country it penetrates in southeast-ern Manitoba for some distance and of therich timber and farming country it passusthrough on both sides of the Rainy river,much has been said before in this cor- |respondence. From Rainy River east the jcountry is very rocky, and the railroad I

contractors are finding that their cuts Iare almost all in rock, but north of the i

Rainy Lake the new road runs throughan extensive pine country, though thetimber is apt to be very thin. It goesright through the most promising partsof the Rainy Lake gold country, andcrosses the Atikokan iron range. Ithardly seems possible that this regionwill not sooner or later have successfulgold and iron mines. The Atikokan Iron jrange Is very promising, and is beingprospected very carefully. The only trou-ble with the ore Is the sulphur found init, but It Is said that that is not so muchof an obstacle to the reduction of Ironores as it was a few years ago. The rail-way company is already talking of build-ing big ore docks on the Kaminlstiquariver, just above Fort William, to handlethe ore from the mines it expects to seedeveloped in the Atikokan range.

The road will afford good scenery to thetourist of the future, and will make ac-cessible some of the most beautiful lakesand streams in the world. Summer re-sorts at points on Rainy Lake and otherplaces are already talked of. The lakeswill furnish the fishing companies withan opportunity to extend their source ofsupply. Already one lake on the new line,—Shebandown, — being fished. There isyet no development of towns or even town-sites on the Port Arthur end of the line.There is no train service beyond that af-forded by construction trains, which runeccentrically.

Other Lines.

But th© road they are building betweenPort Arthur and Winnipeg is far frombeing all that the Canadain Northern has.Besides the line it is building northfrom Parry Sound on Georgian Bay, thecompany owns in Ontario the Port Arthur,Duluth & Southwestern, which it pur-chased about a year ago. This line issome eighty miles long and extends fora few miles into Minnesota. Sometimeit will be extended to connect with the

Nature of the Country.

Duluth & Iron Range at Ely, but noth-ing is promised in that . direction atpresent. It should be said that insteadof building the Winnipeg line out fromPort Arthur or Ft. William the new linestarts at Stanley station on the PortArthur, Duluth & Western.

The Manitoba Lines.

In Manitoba the company now owns oroperates all the railroad lines not con-trolled by the Canadian . Pacific. TheNorthern Pacific lines recently sold to the'Manitoba government l/ive been leasedby the Canadian Northern. It alreadyowned the Lake Manitoba & Canal com-pany line, which it has just extended tothe northwestern corner of Manitoba andon into Northwest Territory. It,

sis thisline which will ultimately be extended tothe Pacific coast. The company is put-ling in a connecting line between theeastern terminus of this line at Glad-stone on the Canadian Pacific and Portagela Prairie, the terminus of one of theNorthern Pacific lines. It is building an-other extension from Headlngly southtoward Carman, where the provincial gov-ernment has been draining some extensivelow lands.

The Officials.

The . Canadian r Northern company,though it is only an infant among rail-roads, now has 1,052 miles of railway un-der operation and is building 424. D. B.Hanna, general superintendent, has his of-fices at Winnipeg. D. B. Gorrie, superin-tendent of operation on the east end, isstationed at Port Arthur. M. H. McLeodis chief engineer on the'west end and T.H. White on the east end.

It will be seen that the new companyhas lines which ramify through Manito-ba's wheat regions and that the line It isnow building will give it a water outletat Port Arthur. Of course it will be "sewedup" at its eastern terminus during theperiod of closed navigation on Lake Su-perior, though it will make arrangementsto store considerable grain. Some daythe line will be extended east, north ofthe Canadian Pacific. An elevator witha capacity of 1,500,000 bushels is now beingerected at Port Arthur.

The next step will' be to get" a line ofboats to operate the lakes in connec-tion with the -new road. At first trafficarrangements will;undoubtedly be made

i with some existing line, but McKenzie.Mann & Co. are knownl to be- figuring onthree large steamers of their own. 1

j While It is doubtful whether the roadwill be completed in time to handle muchthrough business before navigation closes

To Compete With the C. P.

this year it is obvious that hereafter itwill afford the people of Manitoba and theCanadian northwest that competing outletwithin Canadian territory which theyhave long desired. ;

'Minnesota's Interest.

Since the Minnesota & International, asheretofore pointed out, will meet the newCanadian system at Koochiching.the peo-pie of Minnesota have a direct interestin the county the latter opens up. '

A VOTING MACHINEVeteran Newspaper Man Has Device

to Simplify the Ballot.Milwaukee Sentinel.

"Pump" Carpenter, the veteran news-paper man, who has lived alternately inBaraboo and Madison for half a century,

claims to have invented a voting devicewhich works perfectly and can be manu-factured at half the cost of the votingmachine now on the market. Mr. Carpen-

ter declines to show his machine to thepublic or to give a description of it to thepress, but several men who have exam-ined It are favorably impressed, and saythat it may solve the present cumbersomeand tedious method of recording votes.

The ordinary ballot is used in the Car-penter • device. As the paper passesthrough the machine the voter, by manip-ulating the mechanism, indicates the can-didates for whom he desires to vote andthe choice is recorded. When the pollsare closed the . index of the machine showsjust .how many votes each candidate hasreceived, and this record can, if desired,be corroborated by the ballots which havebeen preserved just as marked. Mr. Car-penter claims that his machine is thor-oughly practicable, that it can be madeat a small cost, that it preserves the se-crecy of the ballot, and can be used wher-ever the Australian system Is used. Ithas not yet been patented. TOE CANADIAN NORTHERN'S LINES IN MANITOBA.

are now going up In the calcium sulphiteworks, where a sulphite liquor is madefrom pyrrhotite and limestone, the finelyground pyrrhotite is passed down througha roasting furnace designed especially forthe work, and drawn off at the bottom asan oxide of Iron and nickel. The sul-phurous acid gas roasted out Is passed tothe bottom of vats 100 feet high filledWith limestone or dolomite quarried Inthe surrounding region. The gas Is drawnupward and as it rises, meets a descend-ing stream of water and is absorbed.This solution, attacking the calcium car-bonate, forms a calcium sulphite that isdrawn to tanks, the strength of theliquor being regulated by the proportionof water passing into the vat. There areeight of these vats, each five feet In di-ameter and built of heavy timber.

For the utilization of this liquor, asulphite pulp mill Is provided, in whichare what are usually called digesters, andwhere the process does not differ greatlyfrom that employed in mills making asimilar product, except as to size. Thedigester building is 125 feet high andcontains the largest digesters ever built.They are tall steel cylinders lined withacid-proof brick, and each will hold thirtycords of chopped wood. The plant has acapacity for sixty-five tons of finishedpulp every twenty-four hours.

Buildings for the treatment of the ferro-nlckel ore on a commercial scale areabout completed. A sulphuric acid plantto utilize the new and revolutionary cata-lytic process is under erection. There willbe a large excess of sulphurous acid, andIt was necessary to devise some methodof treating it. Much sulphuric acid willbe for sale, while the company will Itselfuse some in various processes, amongwhich will be the making of acetic acid.

ticipation of the early completion of theirgreat Michigan power canal, the MichiganLake Superior Power company and itsCanadian ally are constructing a damacross the foot of Lake Superior at thispoint: The concrete piers are finished fora fourth the distance across the river andthe steel work Is under way. Much ofthis dam will be done by the commence-ment of winter. The Michigan canal, thatis expected to so draw from Lake Supe-rior as to necessitate this retarding sys-tem, is nearly ready for operation. Thevast excavation is practically finished, ex-cept for the upper and lower ends, andthere remains the cleaning up and liningof the canal prism to secure the best re-sults from the flow. At the lower endwhere the canal widens to more than afourth mile and its water enters the pow-er house, an enormous amount of earthhas been excavated.

The power house Is partly up, all itsfoundation are in, and at the southern endthe work of placing the eighty 600h. p.Jolly-McCormick turbines is under way.There are to be three stories of steel con-struction in this great power house, whichIs to be 1,400 feet long and more than 100feet high, and it is stated by the steelmakers that It is the largest job of steelerection under way in America to-daywith its more than 6,000 tons of shapesand plates. Half a dozen traveling cranes,etc., are Installed on the structure, andthe stoccato monotone of hydraulic rivet-ers is to be heard from the steel of theturbine chambers. It will be nearly ayear before water is turned into this can-al. On the Canadian side the river, thesecond canal Is started and excavation isprogressing fast. .

Electricity for Power.

Eight large steam dredge boats areworking day and night on the Canadianchannel above the government lock, pre-Hmenary tothe erection ofan ore dock 1,800feet long, for the handling of Michipicoten

aid other Iron ores. This dock will becontiguous to the steel plant now nearingcompletion and a short distance from thelarger plant contemplated for the future.The rail mill at this point will be ready

for operation in two or three months, andits entire output for some years has al-ready been sold to the Canadian govern-ment. '\u0084'-'' "\u25a0\u25a0'\u25a0''

At this mill there will be as extensivean application of electricity for power aspossible, and the second Canadian canalis expected to furnish this as well aspower for other works. Three eight footcupolas are installed for melting pig forconversion, the necessary. iron being ex-pected for a time to come' from the worksof the Canada Iron Furnace company, atMidland. Later, .when. the blast. furnaceplant now under way is completed, the

"direct process" will be adopted and metaltaken from them. Two acid lined Besse-mer converters of five tons capacity eachare swung in place at the northern endof the massive stone buildings. The plansindicate that the best modern practice willbe followed at this works. After beingblown, the metal will be poured intomoulds on buggies and stripped by anoverhead Wellman-Seaver electric strip-ping crane that Is also provided with anauxiliary trolley to change the ladles onthe ladle crane.

There are two four-hole pit furnacesinto which the ingots are drawn andcharged, and delivered to the bloomingtables" and to the rolls also, by a singleoverhead electric crane of Wellman-Seav-er design. The ingots will be passedthrough a 32-inch mill, sheared and passedto Siemens regenerative heating furnaces,of which there are four.

The Marshall, ' Minn., News-Messengerhas been delving Into its old files oftwenty-eight years back and reprintinginteresting news and editorial of the year1873—when the crime was committed. Thepaper was then known as the PrairieSchooner, and Lyon county was just fill-'Ing up with farmers and homesteaders.

In the third Issue of the PrairieSchooner appeared a letter from C. K.Davis, reprinted from the St. Paul Press.Senator Davis was then the republicannominee for governor, and the idol of theyoung republicans of the state. Threeyears before he had delivered his cele-brated lecture on "Modern Feudalism."

The letter is decldely interesting asshowing the bent of the young states-man's mind at that, stage of his career,when he advocated government ownershipof railway trunk lines.: The extract from the Prairie Schooneris in full as follows:

The following letter from . the man whowill doubtless be the next governor of Min-nesota we find in the columns of the St. PaulPress. It well repays a careful perusal:

Sometime In May last, having determinedHonorable C. K. Davis for the republicannomination for governor, we addressed a let-ter ot him stating that It would perhaps ad-vance^ his Interests if he *would In some waystate 'publicly' his views- as set forth in his

Lands to Be Settled.

One of the difficult problems under-taken by Mr. Clergue and association isthat of settling the region to the northof the Sault along their line of railway.This settlement Is one of the conditionsunder which they will earn the enormous-yl valuable grants of land given by theCanadian government, and an earnest andwell-considered effort is now about tobe pushed looking to the locating uponthese lands of the required number offamilies. Still the job is one that manya man with some genius for organizationwould hesitate to undertake. But Mr.Clergue Is a man of more than ordinarygenius, and his success 'in many under-takings fits him for others. The oppor-tunities granted settlers along the lineof the A. C. & H. B." road in the way ofmaking a start by woodchopplng and thesubsequent opportunities to be given un-der the liberal plans adopted by the com-pany for working up the products of soiland forest should have effect in bringingin people and holding them till they aresuccessful citizens.. Added to the above-mentioned metal-lurgical industries is the alkali works ofthe Canadian Electro-Chemical company,another Clergue enterprise. . Here, by theRhodin electrolytic process, using a mer-cury cathode, nine tons of bleaching pow-der and five tons of caustic soda are madedaily. :

draw this distinction Is yet to be seen. Myown idea is that the state cannot contractaway a single attribute of sovereignty, andthat when the public nature of these institu-tions is conceded, the right to control themfollows logically,

I do. not think that congress has any powerthat will effectually remedy the evils. Thepower to regulate commerce between the dif-ferent states unquestionably gives that bodythe power to regulate through freights, but ithas no expression in regard to freights saybetween Mar.kato and Winona. In regard tothe power, of the state, the converse of theabove paragraph is true. That is,- the statemay possibly regulate from Mankato to Wino-na, but it has no power to do so from Wino-na to La Cros.ie.

My own idea of practical solution of thisquestion is almost as universal as the ideaof emancipation. It is that the federal gov-ernment should, under the power of eminentdomain, condemn at least two through linesfrom the seaboard to the west, keep them inrepair just as the state keeps its wagon roadsup, and suffer every one who has a locomo-tive or a car to run over, them under suchregulations only as will insure safety.

Before this can be done, there will be astruggle to which that regarding slavery inthe territories was mere baby play. It maybe that the railway men will be wiser thanthe slaveholders, and, when they know whatis coming, they will make satisfactory con-cessions.

I have no time to write more now. Youmust consider this as a private letter to you— mean as far as publication Is concerned.Iwill not, to secure any office, rush Into printand air my views on this or any other ques-tion. Ido not profess to be wiser than therepublican party, and I intend to stand by It,believing that ' these evils can be morethoroughly, ithough it may be more slowly,remedied by the action of the great organ-ization than by eccentric movements of in-dividuals toward sudden reform. Yours, i

My lecture on "Modern Feudalism" dossnot profess to touch the question of remedy.It;was written three years ago, before thequestion had : begun to' receive any politicale.gitation, and 'was designed to "call attentionto the tendency of the modern ccrpoiation tosubordinate the government itself to the func-tion of the private monopoly.

Many predictions made in that letter seemedaudacious when they were written, but eventshave moved so rapidly that within three yearsthe things which to predict seemed venture-some have become the stalest kind of history.

I am satisfied that the great politics: strug-gle of twenty years to come will be fought onthe question of corporations.' The Dartmouthcollege case, which was decided by the UnitedStates supreme court' years before a singlerail was laid In this country, is the greatdifficulty in the way of the legislative regula-tion Of the corporations. This decision, how-ever, merely affected . a private corporation.It does not profess to touch those bodieswhich, like railroads, are public In their na-ture,": and :. to ,' which; certain ; rights ". of ' sove-reignty—such as the right to .condemn prop- jerty—are delegated.

He was born in Hartford, Conn.,about forty-five years ago. He was edu-cated for a priest but drifted into thetheatrical profession, was leading man forFanny Davenport, and, report says, wasmarried to her at one time; was alsoconnected with Joe Jefferson in "Rip VanWinkle," and played with other promin-ent companies.

Greatest Show of AH the Long Series Is Prom-ised The Program in Full.

A year of preparatory work is com-pleted. To-night the state fair gates willbe closed. When they open at 9 o'clockMonday morning the forty-second annualstate fair will be ready for the public.The Journal has kept Its readerswell Informed as to the plans for this fair.These plans have been developed afterbeing well thought out and they haveproved so satisfactory and complete thatPresident John Cooper of the fair boardassures the public that the fair which will

A GENERAL VIEW OF THE FAIR GROUNDS.be opened on Monday will be a well-rounded . and evenly balanced, exhibition.

Although cattle will be the central fea-ture of,the great show aud will to alarge extent absorb public attention,other departments of the fair have notbeen neglected and in every division therewill be more exhibits than ever before.

The fair is especially strong In amuse-ment features. The racing is of thehighest class; the specialties are selectedfrom the best the world has to offer andthe evening performances will conclude

with Pain's great masterpiece, the new"Last Days of Pompeii." These eveningentertainments have proved such a suc-cess that they will be made a permanentfeature of the state fair.

Vice President Theodore Roosevelt willopen the fair on Monday morning with anaddress on the agricultural resources anddevelopment of the northwest. Thespeech will be entirely non-political Incharacter and will be a voicing of Roose-velt's love for practical affairs and the

x-elfar'e of the common people. He knowsthe northwest well and is deeply.inter-ested in its agricultural development, forwhich-he sees a bright future.

But books, pictures and lectures cannotportray . the scene In all the grandeur itmust have possessed. H. J.

Street Car Facilities.The state fair grounds can be reached

from Minneapolis in about half an hour.The management of the street railwaycompany has planned to put every avail-able wheel in motion next week and willrun cars as often as may be necessary.It is stated by officials that there Is plenty

of power this year and .that cars can berun at very frequent intervals. On Snell-ing avenue, near the fair grounds, thereIs a long track for storage of cars, whichwill be used to meet the rush of thecrowds after the close of performances.

\u25a0Cars of the Como-Interurban-Harrletline run directly from Lake Harriet downHennepin avenue and to the fair grounds.In addition to these regular cars there.will be a large number which will runfrom Sixth ?™ I Hennepin to the fairgrounds. Tf""iters from any other linesin the city will be good on these cars.

.; Admission to . the Fair.

To correct any misunderstanding Itshould be' stated that admission to thefair is 50 cents—just what it has alwaysbeen. For the evenings, however, therate is but 25 cents. This price of ad-mission goes into effect at 6 o'clock, sothat it is possible for the people who arebusy during the day to go to the groundsat 6 o'clock, see. the exhibits before 8and then take in the amusements at thegrand stand, getting the benefit of thelow rate. All the fair buildings are illu-minated at night except the cattle barns.

LAST DAYS OF POMPEIIDescription of Pains' New Pyrotech-

\u25a0 nic Spectacle*.The spectacular dramatic performance

of the "Last Days of. Pompeii," whichwill be pepsentei each evening: at thestate fair, is a representation of the mostdireful disaster or' all hi-story, the"deathand burial of a city. '

When Vesuvius poured forth its deadlytorrent \u25a0of \u25a0 lava upon the ancient city ofPompeii, burying it under a mass of liquidstone, and destroying with pitiless forcethe thousands of happy people who dweltwithin the walls of the doomed place, criesof agony rent the lurid air, and all wasdesolation and misery.

This happened eighteen centuries ago.Excavators' researches have brought be-fore the world relics of the fatal city.Volumes have been written upon it, andpeople have come to know a great deal ofthe history of Pompeii.. So far as bookscan teach them, so far as lectures by rages

HIGH LIFE IN LOS ANGELES IN SUMMER"B. OB." Tells of the Glories of the Atmosphere and of the Sea-

Eternal Spring in Everlasting Summer—Hotels and HotelLife on the Pacific.

I Correspondence of The Journal. |Los Angeles, Aug. 6, 1901.—Southern j

California was never, before so filled withtourists during the dull summer months.Usually at this season of the year thecurio shops along the main streets putup their shutters and move Into cheaperquarters; hotel men do their house.clean-ing, the theaters, are .deserted, and thetownspeople live oft' each other. But thebands are still playing during the dinnerhour at the hotels; the streets are crowd-ed with"..shoppers,.,'and the \ newspaperstwang their ' editorial \\u25a0_ harps ... to \ thetune of prosperity and -contentment. Thereason for this change of conditions whichis becoming more sand\u25a0),. more apparentevery year is not far to seek. Easternersare slowly awakening to the fact that de-lightfula3 it is all aong the Pacific coastin winter, it is really, pleasanter in sumymer. The popular impression has beenthat California being so warm in wintermust be comparitively hotter during thedog days, but experience proves the con-trary. During the recent period of scorch-ing; heat all over the country, when the

| thermometer loitered along in the hun-dreds, it remained In the eighties insouthern California and dropped into thesixties, up north in the" vicinity of 'Frisco.

There Is relatively but little variationin the temperature;. but little more thanten degrees in the twenty-four hours. |Every afternoon by four o'clock _ a sea ;

breeze will, so cool the hottest day, thatat bedtime —anywhere from 10 p.m. to 5a. m. —you have'to sleep under a blanket. !Light wraps are worn almost every night,and fidglty people look out for J a draughteven in August. /

Then too, on a really hot day here thelocal article at its worst is not compara- \ble with the !damp and oppressive * heat Ithat has made the east so uninhabitable jthis summer. Owing to the lack of rainthe air is not charged with moisture; the !percentage of humidity is never, high,nor does the breeze come like a blast froma furnace.. Thunderstorms are almost asrare as angel's visits In this ever rose-blooming corner of, the' country, and cy-clones so unheard of that the people couldnot follow Lac/ Stafford's philosophicaldiscussion on what would happen If theIrresistible force struck the immovableobject. Yet in spite of the lack of rainthere is no dust, for an occasional ' fog icools the air, and lays the dust as well.

But to conclude this long talk on, the Iweather; the . following official table of |temperatures taken during the recent Iheated term will fully substantiate as jfacts the statements made above..

What to Eat.j The creature comforts of life are on a !

par with the climate. The "leading hotel !in Los Angeles," save for the fact that the \u25a0

markets are limited, compares favorablywith any hotel in New York or Chicago, jIt is well nigh impossible to get soft-shell jcrabs here, because they are not hardy !enough to stand the long journey, and die \on the way from the Atlantic seaboard. !Lobsters, too, are "cut" just at present, jbut willbe "in" again August 10. Not be- jcause there are no lobsters along the Pa- 'cific coast— with or without the shell— Irather for the reason that last .winter's Icrop of tourists so, ate Into .the crop of ,shell fish that the legislature passed a bill !prohibiting the lobster-potter from snar-ing during the summer months. The Pa-cific lobster by tbe* way is really, a hugecraw-fish, has no claws, but is as edibleas the Atlantic variety. | Then, too, youare served with eastern oysters even dur-ing the months without the1 S, the oysterbeing brought out here and planted. Asfor the small California oysters, they are

I good all the year around, and are always-

j served as the first course of a formal din-! ner or luncheon. But generally speaking

jthe sea food is neither si good or of suchi variety, in the Pacific, and 'attempts; to! plant ; Atlantic fish jjalong this coast have \u25a0

' largely resulted in failure, because theJ water, is so much more salty- than alongthe eastern shore. - - ; .- r Dove, pigeon and squab are about theonly 'game in the market just at present,and the j,Arizona;.meat is . so- tough and.unpalatable that the;best. cuts come fromChicago and Kansas \u25a0 City. But, on theother hand,:v. California raises fresh vege-tables all the year. There are few'daysin,', the, $65 when you are .denied' straw-berries .with., your ' breakfast; . firm, juicy

and about twice \u0084the „size of.1 the .easternberry. Cantaloupe and fresh corn have

-been-; in the* market since the latter 'part.

of April; new potatoes, green peas, andasparagus are among the staple.vegetablesto be. had most any time. . And .as forspring chicken, that sagacious bird has hishead on the block the year around, in thisland of almost perpetual springtime, whileyou don't have to wait until Thanksgivingfor your turkey. So thus what the mar-kets deny in sea food is made up for ingame and vegetables.

'•Going In for Sport."

If you care to go In for sport it's but athree-hour journey to Catalina, where wild

, goats are to be had for the shooting,though the sport of sports for. sports isfishing for the big Tuna. Old fishermenof the Grover Cleveland type claim thatone never knows the delights of fishingbefore landing a Tuna, and that the mostexperienced of the Atlantic watermen failin their first attempts. The tuna is saidto be the gamest fish that swims, and get-ting a tarpon into the boat is as tame bycomparison as old maid to-. poker. \ Toland your fish within an hour after you'vehooked him is a record to be proud of,it taking. on an average of from two tothree hours. So the tournament just fin-ished under the auspices of the CatalinaTuna club proved most exciting to thoseinterested in that sort of thing, the con-testants coming from all parts of the coun-try to take part in the tourney. The Tunaclub is not an exclusive organization; infact it's democratic in theory, but to be-come a member of the club you must havelanded alone and unaided as the circusannouncer would say,— a tuna weighing atleast 150 lbs. And mind they don't takeyour word for the weight jof the fish, —else the club would have a larger member-

jship. The catch must be made under cer-i tain restrictions as to weight of rod, reelI and line, and the weighing done under thejeye of the, keeper of the great seal, which

i is the sad sea dog name for a land sharkweighmaster.

Fun at the Theaters.But If you prefer remaining on shore

and letting the other fellow work so longovertime at sea, that he'd strike forshorter hours if compelled to find hispleasure fishing, there's enough of quietamusement in town. At the Los Angeles

l theater during these dull summer monthswe've had. Henry Miller in a round of

I plays, Including "D'Arcy of the. Guards,"| which he is trying on the California dogjbefore opening in New York. But the dog

j did not fancy the dish particularly, and itj will hardly dod for New York. BlancheBates followed in "Under Two Flags,'

jand made : a pronounced individual hit,; the fact of her being a Californian draw-ing really brilliant audiences to the

! theater on the opening night beg pardon1 premier. - The Titian-haired Leslie Carteras'Zaza gave the Angellnoa'three nights'illustration on how to break the seventhcommandment, — get away with It,—and now we are threatened with an in-vasion of the. Frohmans. Charles Froh-man's Empire Theater .company opens

i next Monday, night,. presenting for thefirst time out of. New York "Mrs. Dane'sDefense," and: Brother <M Dan follows in

j"Lady Huntsworth's Experiment." . y*yAj 'At the* Burbank, .which supports stock

i companies in standard plays, season afteri season, James Neill and his companyi have just concluded a most profitable: seven weeks' engagement. ' The Pacific; coast Is, properly speaking,, the home ofstock companies and it is no small credit

! to.Mr. Neill that, since entering this; field he has won for.himself and company! a place second to none. His productioni of "Barbara Friietchle" In particular Is aj most ambitious undertaking for a stockj manager,, but the results both from an1 artistic and box office point of view spokeI for.'themselves.-standing room being at apremium during "Frietchle" week.

'.'-/ i. y - Wonder* of .the Sea.

But for the past month the- sea hasi been giving a sort of continuous perform-i ance, which as a spectacle rivals any stagei picture ever devised. About three weeksj ago people along the shore hereabouts

> noticed that the; color of the/sea was• changing,'lnstead of green it was becom-I ing more and more of a mud-red hue, thei ocean- for acres presenting' a marvelousi sight, the well-defined belt'of red lying

During their briefstay they attracted all sorts, of favorablenotice and gave daily drills either out onthe grounds 'or in the : Stadium. Whileat the exposition they visited the breed-ing, farm of a local horse fancier and inthe fullness of his good feelings he gavethe corps a fine stallion, valued at $5,000.The boys took the horse with them whenthey left and hope to be allowed to starta breeding farm at the Point, where themuch-sought-after perfect cavalry horsemay be bred by the government. ThisIs the first stallion ever owned by theUnited States government.

From Aug. 26 to Sept. 7 will be giventhe Pan-American swine . show In thesouth division of the cattle sheds. Ninebreeds of swine are being shown.

James MacMullan of Minneapolis, su-perintendent for the Minnesota board ofmanagers, was absent for several days ona trip to Charleston, S. C., where helooked over the forthcoming exposition tobe. held there. Mr. MacMullan is enthu-siastic about the Charleston exposition,which begins immediately after the close,of the Pan-American, but the board ofmanagers will probably not make any ex-hibit from Minnesota there.

Charleston's exposition officials havebeen striving in every way to get all theexhibitors possible to display at theirshow after the close of the Pan-Ameri-can. Efforts have been made to induceMinnesota to take space or build a build-ing, but there is little prospect thatanything will be done.

Special invitations for President's Day,Sept. 5, will shortly be out. The affair,because of the expected crowd, will belargely governed by Invitations, and It isexpected that this may prove the largestday of the exposition, though New YorkDay may exceed it.

The 1 attendance from Minnesota stillholds up well, 267 having registered at theMinnesota building Sunday to Wednesday,Inclusive, from the state.

One of the employes in the repair shops

of the .St. Louis Park car line, at St.Louis Park, Is something of a practicaljoker as well as a practical electrician,

and recently devised a scheme which hasgiven him no end of. merriment> eversince and which incidentally has provedof direct benefit both to himself and jtohis friends. ...

Four men are employed in the shops,and, at the close of a hot day's work,they have frequently found that their sup-ply ofdrinklng '•water has been Insuffi-cient to; meet the' demands made upon It.The tank stands in one corner of the of-fice, and is—or rather | was—patronized byevery thirsty man who chanced in. The.practical -joker, however, \u25a0 like the Frenchking, has-changed all that.

Yesterday ' afternoon two of the boyswalked in and asked for a drink. Thejoker smiled delightedly.

"Why, sure!" he said. "Help yourself."

culae,, which grew brighter and brighterwith' decomposition. " That is, the seashines and smells, and the more it shinesthe worse" it smells, for the odor finally

became, so offensive as to drive manycottagers back to. town, and just aboutthe time they were settled, presto! thephosphorescence was gone in a singlenight, and the Pacific had taken on itsnormal' deep green coloring again. Butthe scientists; are still wrangling overcauses and "effects, one faction -claiming

that an infinitesimal bit of still life calledthe salpa— modest name for a scientist —Is responsible for Itall. "Some years theyare scarce, but this season seems favora-ble to their production. They form lachains and come drifting in looking likenecklaces of gleaming '• diamonds, y andwhen broken up by the sea, take on thecolors of a prism, the nucleus of the ani-mal being the seat of light.| The ordinarycolor Is green, but melts into red, whichshows phosphorescent at night. \u25a0* !

However, the ordinary layman, not be-ing troubled over scientific • explanations,

took the phenomena as he found it, with-out question, and doubtless ; enjoyed -thesight fully as 5 much 'as "the * fellow! who'thought "J himself .*,*", specially *ordained byProvidence *to explain everything. :T

One of the youngsters walked over tothe tank, picked up the cup and turned onthe water. A minute later his arm gavea convulsive twitch, he Jumped quicklyto one side, and then, with apparent de-liberation, threw the contents of the cupfull In his friend's face. .

Naturally the second boy got angry."What the blazes 'dyou do that for?" heyelled. Then, he too, picked up thecup and rushed toward the tank to se-cure ammunition with which to retali-ate. :'"-.•- .' y \u0084.-'-'

Again the joker smiled. He reachedover and pressed a conveniently situatedbutton, and the second youngster dancedup and down with even more agility thanhis friend. The surprise of the boystickled the joker to such an extent "thathe relented and gave them some waterhimself. , \u0084.'.',"- - .- - ,

Two thin copper wires connecting thecup with a battery explained the sourceof the shocks received by the boys.

* W Copyright 1900.

; .t y- y ' SYNOPSIS OF PRECEDING CHAPTERS.;A story of the pioneers and. trappers in the Canadian northwest in the early days of

the past century. - Rufus Gillespie, a trade and clerk for the *Northwest company, latelling his experiences and adventures. < The < story opens at Quebec. Gllesple, a " ladof-18, is waitingin a club for his friend Eric Hamilton, a, trader with the Hudson'sBay company. A number of old traders and army ; offioera, are gathered at the club,,

among whom were Jack UaoKenzle, uncle of Rufus, and" Colonel Adderly. Hamiltonhad been married only a year or so, and on arriving at the club late, was quizzed for

his tardiness by the colonel, whom he struck with a whip. It develops that Hamilton,

on returning home early that evening, could. find no trace of his "wife or child. He issharply questioned by Gillespie, and it is surmisedthat they were abducted by Indiana,

on* of whom, Le Grande Dlable, had a grudge against Hamilton. A visit Is paid to the

deserted camping ground of the Indians and traces are found of the missing ones. Asevere snowstorm prevents a further searc h for three i days,' when the search parties

are sent out In different directions. Gillespie secures the services of Paul Larocque,

an old guide, who leads him through the woods to the camp of some Indian andvagabond whits trappers. Among them he is surprised to find Louis Laplante, a school-mats. With the hitter's assistance he makes a search of the tents, but finds no traceof woman or child. He is told that a tent standing apart from the others sheltered asmallpox patient Having doubts of Laplante's honesty, he returns by a roundaboutway to the single tent but is warned away. A month' passes, but no trace. Again he

Visits the renegade's camp to drown his suspicions, and has pointed'out to him a mound,

the grave of th* smallpox victim. Once more he visits the camp, finds it deserted,and, digging into the mound, discovers only a cache of provisions, thus verifying his\u25a0uiplolons. y'

When the ice broke up at the end of April,boaters were off for their summer retreats

Sid voyageurs set out on the annual trip tothe Fays dEn Haut. This year the HudsonSay company had organized a strong fleet ofeanoemen under Colin Robertson,. a formerwor'-Wester, to proceed to Red River Settle-ment by way of the Ottawa and the Sault in-gtaad of entering the fur preserves by theUsual route of Hudson bay and York Factory.Prom Le Grand Dlable's former associationwith the North-West company it was proba-ble he would be In Robertson's brigade.Among the voyageurs of both companies therewas not a mors expert canoeman than thistreacherous, thievish Iroquois. As steers-man, he could take a crew safely throughknife-edge rocks with the swift certainty of•now flight. In spite of a reputation forembodying the vices of whits men and red—•which gave him his unsavory titleit seems 1

rkely that the Hudson Bay company, nowthe thick of an aggressive campaign

against its great rival, and about to dispatchill important flotilla from Montreal to Atha-basca by way of the Nor'-Westers* route,qvould dispense with the services of this dex-terous voyageur. On the other hand, the

Westers might bribe the Iroquois to stayIrtth them. .S%ls|

CHAPTER IV.—Continued.

Acting on these alternative possibilities,Hamilton and I determined to track the fu-gitives north. We could leave hirelings toghodow, the movements of Indian bands aboutQuebec. Eric could re-engage with the Hud-Km's Bay and get passage north with ColinRobertson's brigade, which was to leave La-chine in a few weeks. My uncle had beenm, famous Bourgeois of the great North-West

- Company in his younger days, and could se-, owe me an immediate commission in the

Korth-West company. Thus we could accom-pany the voyageurs and runners of both com-panies.

Hamilton's arrangements were easily made;and my'uncle not only obtained the com-mission for me, but, with a hearty slap onmy book and a"Bravo, boy! I knew thefur trader's fever would break out in youyet!" pinned to the breast of my inner waist-coat the showy gold medallion which theBourgeois wore on festive occasions. In verytruth, Ioft had need of its inspiriting motto:"Fortitude In Distress."

Feudal lords of the middle ages neverwaged more ruthless war on each other than

. the two great fur trading companies of thenorth at the beginning of the nineteenth cen-tury. Pierre de Raddison and Grosselier,gentlemen adventurers of New France, firstfollowed the waters of the Outawa (Ottawa)northward, and passed from Lake Superior(the kelche gamine of Indian lore) to thegreat unknown fur preserve between Hud-son bay and the Pacific ocean; but the furmonopolists of the French court in Quebecjealously obstructed the explorers' efforts toopen tip the vast territory. De Raddison wascompelled: to carry his project to the Englishcourt, and the English court, with a liber-ality not unusual in those days, promptlydeeded over the whole domain, the extentand locality and wealth of which there wasutter Ignorance, to a fur trading organiza-tionthe newly formed "Company of Adven-turers of England, trading into Hudson'sBay," Incorporated. in 1670 with Prince Ru-pert named as first governor. If monopo-lists of New France, through envy, sacri-ficed Quebec's first olaim to the unknownland, Frontenac made haste to repair theloss. Father Albanel, a Jesuit, and othermissionaries led the way westward .to thePays dEn Haut. De Raddison twice changedbis allegiance, and when Quebec fell into thehands of the British, nearly a century later,the French traders were as active in thenorthern fur preserve as their great rivals,ihe Ancient and Honorable Hudson's BayOompany; but the Englishmen kept near thebay and the Frenchmen, with their coureurs-dss-bols, pushed westward along the chainOf waterways leading from Lake Superiorgad Lake Winnipeg to the Saskatchewan andAthabasca. Then came the Conquest, withthe downfall of French trade in the northcountry. But there remained the ooureurs-dea-bola, or wood rangers, the Metis, or[Trench halfbreeds, the Bois-Brules, or plain-SUnners —so called. It is supposed, from thetrapper's custom of biasing his path throughthe forest | And on the ruins of French bar-

rr grew up a thriving English trade, organ-ad for the most part by enterprising citi-

zens of Quebec and Montreal, and absorbing

Within Itself all the cast-off servants of theOld French companies. Such was the origin

' of th* X. Y. and North-West companies to-. wards the beginning of the nineteenth cen-tury. Of these, the most energetic andpowerful—and, therefore, the most to befeared by the Ancient and Honorable Hud-eon's Bay companywas , the North-WestOompany, "(Le Bourgeois de la Compaghie dv

n Word est," as the partners designatedthemselves." .'.'",--/

From the time that the North-Westersgratuitously poured their secrets into thetars \u25a0of Lord Selkirk, and Lord SelkirkShrewdly got control of the Hudson's. BayCompany and began to Infuse Nor'-Westers'goal Into the stagnant workings of the olderOompany, there arose suoh a : feud amongthese lords of the north as may be likenedonly to the pillaging of robber barons in themiddle ages. And this fend was at its heightWhen I cast in my lot with the North-WestFur company. Nor'-Westers had reaped a

! harvest of profits by leaving the beaten, trackof trade and pushing boldly northward into. the remote MacKenzie River region. Thisyear the Hudson's Bay company had deter-mined to enter the same area and employa former Nor'-Wester, Mr. Colin Robertson,to conduct a flotilla of canoes from Lachine,Montreal, by way of the Nor'-Westers' routeup the Ottawa to the Saskatchewan and Ath-abasca. But while the .Hudson's Bay com-pany could ship

r their peltries directly toEngland from the bay, the Nor'-Westers la-bored under the disadvantage of many de-

., lays and trans-shipments before their goodsreached seaboard at Montreal. Indeed, I

/. have heard my uncle tell of orders which hosent from the north. to England in _ October.

I The things ordered in October would be sent

from London in March to reach Montreal inmid-summer.- There they would be repackedIn small - quantities for portaging and dis-patched from . Montreal with . the Nor'-West-

-. em voyageurs the following May, and ifdestined for ' the far north, would not reach

' the end of the long trip J until October—two\ years from the time of the order. Yet, under

such' conditions had the Nor'-Westers in-creased in prosperity, while the Hudson's

': Bay-with annual ships at York Factoryand Churchill, declined.

When Lord Selkirk took hold of the Hud-- eon's Bay there was a change. Once a feud

has begun, I know very well it is impossibleyto apportion the blame each side deserves.

Whether Selkirk timed his acts of aggression- during the American war of 1812-1814, when

* the route; of the , Nor'-Westers was rendered 'unsafe—who 1con say Whether he broughtcolonists into the very heart of the disputed

j territory for :the sake of the colonists, or toM drilled -into an army of defense for the

son's Bay company— can say?,

I Whether he induced his company to granthim a vast area of lend at the junction ofthe Red and Assinibolne rivers—againstwhich a minority of stockholders protested

for the sake of these same colonists, or to; hold a strategical point past which North-Westers' cargoes must gowho can say? Onthese subjects, which have been so hotly j

discussed both inside and outside law courts,without any definite decision that I haveever heard, I refuse to pass judgment. Ican but relate events as I saw them andleave to each the right of personal decision.

In 1815, Nor'-Westers' canoes were to leaveSte. Anne de Beaupre, twenty miles east ofQuebec, instead of Ste. Anne on the Ottawa,the usual point' of departure. We had notour full complement of men. Some of theIndians and halfbreeds had gone northwestoverland through the bush to a point on theOttawa river north of Chaudlere Falls, wherethey were awaiting us, and Hamilton, throughthe courtesy of my uncle, was able to comewith us in our boats.as far as Lachine.I was never a grasping trader, but I pro-

vided myself before: setting out iwith everyworthless gew-gaw and flashy trifle thatcould tempt, the native to betray Indian se-crets. Lest these should fail, I added to mystock a dozen as fine new flint-locks as couldcorrupt the soul of an Indian, and withoutconsideration for the enemy's scalp, alsoequipped myself with a box of wicked-look-ing hunting-knives. These things I placedin square cases and sat upon them at night,never losing sight of them except on longportages where Indians conveyed our cargoon their backs.'

A man on a less venturesome quest thanmine could hardly have set out with the bri-gades of eanoemen for the north countryand not have been thrilled like a lad on firstescape from school's leading-strings.. There"we were, twenty craft strong, with clerks,traders, one steerman and eight willowy,copper-skin paddlers In each long birch ca-noe. 'No oriental, prince could be more gor-geously appareled than these gay voyageurs.Flaunting red handkerchiefs banded theirforeheads and held back the lank, blackhair. Buckskin smocks, fringed with leatherdown the sleeves and beaded lavishly inbright colors, were drawn tight at the wasteby sashes of flaming crimson, green andblue. In addition to the fringe of leatherdown the trouser seams, some in our com-pany had little bells fastened from knee toankle. It was a strange sight to see each ofthese reckless denizens of forest and plain.pause reverently before the chapel of LaBonne Sainte Anne, cross himself, invoke herprotection on the voyage and drop some offer-ing in the treasury box before hurrying tohis place in the canoe. One Indian left theminiature of a carved boat in the hands ofthe priest at the porch. It was his votivegift to the saint and may be seen there tothis day.

As we were embarking I noticed Eric hadnot come down, and the canoes were alreadygliding about the wharf awaiting the headsteersman's signal. I had last seen him onthe church steps and ran back from the riverto learn the cause of his delay. Now, Ham-ilton is not a Catholic; neither is he a Prot-estant; but I would not have good peopleascribe his misfortunes to this lack of creed,for a trader in the far north loses denomina-tional . distinctions, and a better man. I havenever known. What, then, was my sur-prise to meet him face to face coming outof the chapel with tears coursing down hischeeks and floor-dust thick upon his knees?Women know what to do and say in such acose. A man must be dumb, or blunder; soI could but link my arm through his andlead him silently down to my own canoe.

A single wave of the chief steersman'shand, and out swept the paddles in a perfectharmony of motion. Then some one struckup a voyageurs' ballad and the eanoemenunconsciously kept time with the beat of thosong. The valley seemed filled with the voicesof those deep-chested, strong singers, andthe chimes of Ste. Anne clashed out a lastsweet farewell.

"Cheer up, old man!" said I to Eric, whowas sitting with face buried in his hands."Cheer up! Do you hear the' bells? It's aGod-speed for you!"

CHAPTER V.CIVILIZATION'S VENEER RUBS OFF.

My uncle accompanied our flotilla as faras Lachine and occupied a place in my divis-ion of canoes. Many were the admonitionshe launched but like thunderbolts wheneverhis craft and mine chanced to glide abreast.

"If you lay hands on that skunk," he hadsaid, the malodorous epithet being hisdesignation for Louis Laplante, "If you layhands on that skunk, don't be a simpleton.Skin him, sir, by the Lord, skin him! Lethim play the ostrich act! Keep your owncounsel and work him for all you're worth!Let him play his deceitful game! By JoveGive the villain rope enough to hang him-self! Gain your end! Afterwards forget andforgive if you like; but, by the Lord, re-member and don't ignore the fact, that re-pentance can't turn a skunk into an Innocent,pussy cat!"

And.so Jack MacKenzie continued to warnme all the way from Quebec to Montreal,mixing his metaphors as topers mix drinks.But I had long since learned not to remon-strate against these outbursts of explosiveeloquence—not though all the canons of Laval!literati should be outraged. "What, sir?" hehad roared out when I, in full conceit of new iknowledge, had audaciously ventured to pullhim up, once In my student days. "What,sir? Don't . talk to me of your book-fangled

\u25a0 balderdash! Is language for the use of man,or man for the use of language?" . and he"quoted from Hamlet's soliloquy In a way thatset me packing my pedant lore in the unusedlumber-room of brain lobes. And bo, I say,Jack [ MacKenzie . continued to pour instruc-tions into my ear for the venturesome lifeon which I had entered. "The lad's a fool,only a fool," he said, still harping on Louis,"and mind you answer the fool according tohis folly!"

"Most men are fools first, and thenknaves, knaves because they have beenfools," I returned to my uncle, "and I fancyLaplante has graduated from, the fool stageby this time, and Is a full diploma knave!"

"That's all true," he retorted, "but don'tyou forget there's- always fool enough leftin the knave to give you your opportunity,if you're not a fool. Joint in the armor, lad!Use your cutlass there." y»y '

Apart from the peppery discourses of mykinsman, I remember very little of the tripup the St. Lawrence from Ste. Anne to La-chine with Eric sitting dazed and silent op-posite me We, of course, followed the riverchannel between the Island of Orleans andthe north shore; and whenever our boatsdrew near the main land, came whiffs. cf

crisp, frosty air from the.dark ravines, whereshow patches yet lay in the shadow. Thenthe fleet would sidle towards the island 'andthere would be the fresh, spring odor ofdamp, uncovered, mold, with a vague sug-'gestivenesa .. of violets and" May.", flowers ' and

; ferns \u0084 bursting .-. with, a - rush i through ; the\u25a0lack clods. .The purple

J

fold9cf the mountains, with their wavy outlines fading In th,

haze of distance, lay on the north as theylie to-day; and everywhere on the hills werethe white cots of habitant hamlets withchapel spires pointing above tree-tops. Atthe western end of the Island, where boatssheer put Into mid-current, came the dull,heavy roar of the cataract and above thenorth shore rose great, billowy clouds :offoam. With a sweep of our paddles, we wereopposite a cleft in the vertical rock andsaw the shimmering, fleecy waters of Mont-morency leap over the dizzy precipice churn-ing up from their own' whirling depths andbound out to the river like a panther afterprey.

Now the Isle of Orleans was vanishing onour rear and the bold heights of PointLevis had loomed up to the fore; and now wehad poked our prows to the right and thesluggish, muddy tide of the St. Charles lappedour canoes, while a forest of masts andyard-arms and flapping sails arose from theharbor of Quebec city. The great.walls ofmodern Quebec did not then exist; but therude fortifications, that sloped down from thelofty citadel on Cape Diamond and engirt thewhole city on the hillside, seemed imposingenough to us In those days.

Itwas late in the afternoon when we passed.The sunlight struck across the St. Charles,brightening the dull,gray stones of walls andcathedrals and convents, turning every win-dow on the west to Are and transforming amultitude of towers and turrets and min-arets to glittering gold. Small wonder, in-deed, that all our rough tripmen stoppedpaddling and with eyes on the spire of NotreDame dcs Vlctoires muttered prayers for aprosperous voyage. For some reason orother, I found my own hac off. So was JackMacKeuzle's, so wa3 Eric Hamilton's. Thenthe voyageurs fell to work again. The canoesspread out We rounded Cape Diamond" andthe lengthening shadow _of the .high, peakdarkened the river before us. Always thebroad St. '" Lawrence seemed to be windingfrom headland to headland among the purple

hills, in sunlight a mirror between shadowy,

forest banks, at night, molten silver in themoon-track. Afternoon slipped into nightand night to morning, and each hour ofdaylight presented some new panorama offorests and hills and torrents. Here the riverwidened Into a lake. There the lake nar-rowed to rapids; aud so we came to Lachine—La Chine, named in ridicule of the gallantexplorer, La Salle, who thought these vastwaterways would surely lead him to-China.

At Lachine. Mr. Jack MacKenzie, withmuch brusque bluster to conceal his longings i

for the life he was too old to follow and manycynical injunctions about "skinning theskunk" and "knocking.the head off anythingthat stood in my way" and "always profitingfrom the follies of other men"—"mind havenone yourself"—parted from us. Here, too,

Eric gripped my hand a tense, wordless fare-well and left our party for the Hudson's Baybrigade under Colin Robertson.

It has always bene a mystery to me why

our rivals sent that brigade to Athabasca byway of Lachine Instead of Hudson bay, whichwould have been 2,000 miles nearer. We Nor'-westers went all the way to and from Mont-real, solely because that was our only pointof access to the sea; but the Hudson's Baypeople had their own Hudson bay for a start-ing place. Why, in their slavish Imitation ofthe methods which,brought us success, they

also adopted our disadvantages, I could neverunderstand. Birch canoes and good tripmencould, of course, as the Hudson's Bay mensay, be most easily obtained in. Quebec; butwith a good organizer, the same could havebeen gathered up 2,000 miles nearer York fac-tory, on Hudson bay. Indeed, I. have oftenthought the sole, purpose of that expedition

was to get Nor'westers'. methods by employ-ing discarded Nor'westers as trappers . andvoyageurs." Colin Robertson, the leader, hadhimself been a Nor'wester; and all the menwith him except Eric Hamilton were rene-gades,, "turncoat traders," as we called them.But I must not be unjust; for neither com-pany could exceed the other in Its zeal toentice away old trappers who would revealopponents' secrets. '\u25a0 Acting on my uncle's, ad-vice, I made shift to pick up a few crumbsof useful Information. Had the Hudson's Bayknown, Isuppose they would have called mea spy. That was the name I gave any ofthem who might try such tricks with me.The general assembly of the North-West part-ners was to meet at Fort William, at the headof Lake Superior. I learned that Robertson'sbrigade were anxious to slip past our. head-quarters at Fort William before the meeting,and would set out that very day. I also heardthey had sent forward a messenger to notifythe Hudson's Bay governor at Fort Douglasof their brigade's coming.

Almost before I realized it, we were speed-ing up . the Ottawa, past a second and thirdand fourth Ste. Anne's; for she Is the voya-geur's patron, saint, and her name dote Can-ada's map like inkblots on a boy's copybook.Wherever a Ste. Anne's is now found, therethe voyageur of long ago passed and repassed.In places the surface of the river, gliding tomeet us, became oily, almost glassy, as ifthe wave-current ran too fast to ripple out tothe banks. Then little eddies' began whirlingin the corrugated water and our paddlers withlabored breath bent hard to their task. - Bysuch signs I learned to know when we werestemming the tide of some raging waterfallor swift rapid. . There would follow quickdisembarking, hurried portages overlandthrough a tangle of forest, or up slipperydamp rocks, a noisy launching far above thetorrent, and swifter progress when the birchcanoes touched water again. Such was thetireless pace which made Northwest voya-geurs famous. Such was the work the greatBourgeois . exacted of their men. A liberalsupply of rum when stoppages were made, andof bread and.meat for each meal—better farethan was usually given by . the, trading com-panies much to encourage the tripmen.Each man was doing his utmost to out-dis-tance the bold rivals following by our route.The bourgeois were to meet at Fort Williamearly in June. At all hazards we were deter-mined to notify our company of the enemy'sInvading flotilla; and without margin for acci-dents, we had but a month to cross half acontinent.

At nightfall the fourth day from the shrine,after a tiresome nine-mile traverse past theChaudlero falls of the . Ottawa, . glitteringcampfires on the river bank ahead showedwhere a fresh relay of eanoemen awaited us.They were immediately taken. Into the differ-ent crews and night shifts of paddlers put towork. Itwas quite dark when the new handsjoined us; but in the moonlight, as the chiefsteersman told off the men by name, Iwatched each tawny * figure step quickly.; tohis place in the.canoes, with, that gliding In-dian motion which scarcely rocked the lightcraft. There came to my crew Little Fellow,a short, thick-set man, with a grinning, good-natured face, despite his sizewouldsolemnly assure people he was equal In forceto the sun. With him was La Robe, Noire,of grave aspect and few words, mighty In sta-ture and shoulder power. There were five orsix others, whose names In the clangor 'ofvoices I did not hear. Of these, one was atall, lithe, swift-moving man, whose cunningeyes seemed to gleam with the malice of aserpent. This canoeman silently twisted intosleeping posture directly behind me.

The signal was given, and we were in mid-stream again. Wrapping my blanket aboutme, half propped by a bale .of stuff andbreathing deep of the clear air with frequentresinous whiffs from the forest I drowsed off.The swish of waters rushing past and theroar of torrents, which I had seen and heardduring the day, still sounded in .my ears.The sigh of the night-wind through the forestcame like the lonely moan of a far-distantsea, and I was sleepily half conscious thatcedars, pines and cliffs were engaged in amad race past the sides of the canoe.' A bedin which one may not stretch at randomis not comfortable.; Certainly my crampedlimbs must have caused bad dreams. Adozen times I could have sworn the Indianbehind me had turned into a snake and waswinding round my chest in <tight, smotheringcoils. - Starting up, I would shake the weightoff. Once I 'suddenly opened my eyes tofind blanket thrown aside and pistol belt un-strapped. Lying back eased, I was dozingagain when I distinctly felt a hand crawlstealthily round the pack on \u25a0 which \u25a0 I waspillowed and 'steal towards the dagger handlein the loosened belt. I struck at it viciouslyonly to bruise my fist on my dagger. Nowwide awake, I turned, angrily towards theIndian*. Not a muscle of the still figure hadchanged from the attitude taken. when hecame into the canoe. The man was notasleep, \u25a0 but reclined in . stolid oblivion of myexistence . His head was . thrown back andhe : steely, unflinching eyes were fixed on

the stars. \u25a0\u25a0'^SBGasm&wß&BSaa 1

(Niplssii'g) foul weatherthreatened delay. **\u0084The bourgeois were forproceeding at any risk; but as the thunderclouds grew blacker and the wind more vio-lent, the head steersman lost his temper andgrounded his canoe on the sands at Point ala Croix. Springing ashore he flung down hisIole and refused to go on.

"Sacredle!" he screamed, first pointing tothe gathering. storm and then to the crossesthat marked the fate of other foolhardy voy-ageurs, "Allez si vous voulez! Pour mol jen'irai pas; no voyez pas le danger!" i". "

A hurricane .of wind, snapping the greatcaks as a chopper Breaks kindling wood, en-forced his words. Canoes were at oncebeached and arpaulins "drawn over the balesof provisions. The men struggled to hoista tent; but gusts of wind tossed the canvasabove their heads, and' before the pegs weredriven a great" wall of ' rain-drift drenchedeveryone to the skin. By sundown the stormhad gone southeast and we unrighteouslyconsoled ourselves that It would probablydisorganize the Hudson's Bay brigade asmuch as it had ours.

Presently the natives drewoff to a fire by themselves, where there wouldbe no white man's restraint. They had eitherbegged or stolen traders' rum, and after thehard trip from Ste. Anne were eager for oneof their mad boissons—a drinking bout in-terspersed with jigs and fights. ' »'*s

Stretched before our camp I watched thegortesque figures leaping and dancing be-tween the firelight and the dusky woods likeforest demons. With the leaves rustling over-head, the water laving the pebbles on theshore, and the washed pine air stimulatingcne's blood like an intoxicant, I began won-dering ho w many years of solitary life itwould take to wear through civilization'sveneer and leave one content in the lodges offorest wilds. Gradually I became aware ofmy sulky canoeman's presence on the otherside of the campfire.- The man had not joinedthe revels of the other vcyageurs but sat onhis feet, oriental style, gazing as intently atthe flames as if spellbound by some fire-spirit. .., y \u0084-;.-... .

"What's wrong with that fellow, anyhow?"I asked a veteran trader, who was takinglast pulls at a smoked-out pipe.

'[Sick—homesick," was the laconic reply."You'd think he was near r-nough nature

here to feel at home! Where's his tribe?"-. "It aint's his tribe he wants," explainedthe trader. . " ,

"What, then?" I inquired."His wife, he's mad after ber," and the

trader took the pipe from his teeth."Faugh!" I laughed "The Idea of an In-

dian sentimental and lovesick for some' fatlump of a squaw! Come! Come! Am I tobelieve that?" - ...• y ..."Don't matter whether you do or not "returned the trader. "It's a fact. His wife's

a Sioux chief's, daughther. She went northwith a gang of halfbreeds and hunters lastmonth; and he's been fractious crazy eversince."

"What's his : name?" I called,* as my infor-mant vanished behind the tent flaps. *

Again that mouthful of ; Indian syllablesunintelligible and unspeakable for me, wastumbled forth. Then I turned to the fantas-tic figures carousing around the other campfire. One form, in particular,. I seemed todistinguish from the others. . He was gather-ing the Indians in line for some native dance?nd had an easy,, rakish sort of grace, quitedifferent from the serpentine motions of theredskins. By a sudden, turn, his profile wasthrown against the fire and.l saw that hewore a pointed, beard. He was no Indian;and like a flash came one of those strange,reasonless intuitions, which precede, or pro-ceed from, the slow . motions of the mind.Was this the avant-courier. of the Hudson'sBay, delayed, like ourselves, by the/storm?I had hardly .spelled out my own suspicion,when to the measured beatings of. the tom-tom,, gradually becoming faster, and with alow, weird,,., tuneless chanty like the >•voicesof the forest, the Indians ; began to tread amazy, winding pace, which my ,slow eyescould not follow,, but iwhich,in a strange way,brought „up memories of -snaky convolutionsabout the naked body of",some Egytian ser-pent-charmer. The drums beat faster. ",. Thesuppressed voices .were breaking in shrill,wild,, exultant strains, .;and the measuredtread had. quickened from a^jvallt to a runand from a swaying run to a swift, labyrin-thine pace, which has no name' in English,and which I cab,'only liken to the wigglingof a green thing under leafy covert. Thecoiling and circling and winding of the dan-cers became bewildering,*'and in the center,laughing, shouting, tossing up his arms andgesticulating like, a maniac, was the whiteman with the pointed beard. " Then the per-formers broke from their! places an gavethemselves with utter abandon to the wildimpulses of wild natures in the wild world;and there was such a scene of uncurbed, ani-mal hilarity as I never dreamed possible.Savage, furious, almost ferocious, like thefrisking of a pack of wolves, that at any,time may fall upon and destroy a weaker one,the boisterous antics of these children of theforest, fascinated me. . Filled with the curi-osity that lures many a trader to his undo-ing, I rose and went across to the throng-ing, shouting, shadowy figures. A mandarted out of the woods full tilt against me.

''Twas he of the pointed; beard, my suspectof the Hudson's Bay company. Quick asthought I thrust out by foot and tripped himfull length on the ground. The light fell onhis upturned face. It was '.Louis. Laplante,that past-master In the art of diplomatic de-ception. He snarled out something angrilyand came to himself in sitting posture. Thenhe recognized me. ;.

"Mon Dleu!" he muttered beneath hisbreath, momentarily surprised Into a betrayalof astonishment. "You, Gillespie?" he calledout, at once regaining himself and assuminghis usual nonchalance. "Pardon, my solemn-choly! I took you for a tree." ;

"Granted, your impudence,"* said I, Ignor-ing the Blight but paying him back In kind.I was determined to follow my uncle's ad-vice and play the rascal at his own game;"Help you up?" said I, as pleasantly as Icould,- extending my hand to give him" a lift;and I felt his palm hot and his arm tremble.Then, I knew that Louis was drunk and thiswas the fool's joint in the knave's armor,on which Mr. Jack MacKenzie bade me usemy weapons."'.;'.'\u25a0-:'. ;"."""\u25a0 *'-*'::*''-\u25a0-

--"Tra-la!" he answered/with mincing insult."Tra-la, old tombstone I : Good-by, my mau-soleum! Au'revolr, old death's head! Adieu,grave skull!' With an absurdly : elaboratebow, he raeled back among the dancers.

"Get up, comrade," I urged, rushing Intothe tent, where the old trader I had ques-tioned about my canoeman was now snoring."Get up, man," and I shook him. "There's aHudson's Bay spy!'.' '

."Spy," -he. shouted, throwing aside themooseskin coverlet. "Spy! Who?" *v:'-

-"lt's Louis Laplante,' of Quebec.""Louis Laplante!" reiterated : the trader. "A

I exclaimed, Jerking him back.He was for dashing oh Laplante with a cud-gel. "He's playing the trapper game withthe lake tribes." ''yy y ... ,:'..

"I'll trapper him," vowed the trader. "Howdo you know he's a spy?"

"I don't. know, really know," I begun,clumsily conscious that 1 had no proof formy suspicions, "but it strikes me we'd bet-ter not examine this ' sort of suspect at toolong range. If we're wrong, we cen let himgo." -r'vr/^yyV-r'.r./r^'"'"'\u25a0'' "Bag him, «h|"' queried the trader.

THE MINNEAPOLIS JOUENAL;

Then, as a trader, began my first compro-mise with conscience, and the enmity whichI thereby aroused afterwards punished me forthat night's ' work. I knew very well -mycomrade, with the rough-and-ready methodsof traders, had gone out to do what was notright; and I hung back In the tent, balancingthe end against the means, our deeds againstLouis', perfidy, and Nor'westers' Interestsagainst those of the Hudson's Bay. It is notpleasant to recall what. was done betweeathe cedars and the shore. I do not attemptto' justify our conduct. Does the physicianjustify medical experiments on the criminal,or , the sacrificial priest the driving of thescapegoat into the wilderness? Suffice It tosay, when I went down to the shore, LouisLaplante was sitting in the midst of emptydrinking, flasks, and the wilyold Nor'wester,was tempting the silly boy to take more bydrinking' his health with \u25a0 fresh bottles. Butwhile Louis Laplante gulped down bis rum,

became drunker and more communicative, thetempter threw glass after glass over hisshoulder and remained sober. The Nor'-wester motioned me to keep behind theFrenchman, and I heard his drunken lipsmumbling my own name.

'.'Rufush—prig— prig—serve himtarn right! Hamilton's—sh—sh—prig too—sho's his wife. Serve 'em all tarn right!"

"Ask him where she is," I whispered overhis head.."."..

"Where's the gal?" demanded the trader,shoving more liquor over to Louis.

"Shioux squaw—Devil's wife— you . sayit In English? ; Lah Grawnd Deeahble," andhe mouthed over our mispronunciation of hisown tongue. "Joke, isn't it?" he went on."That wax-face prig—slave to Shioux squaw.Rufush— fool;( . Stuffed him to hish—neck.Made him believe shmallpox was Hamilton'swife. I mean, Hamilton's wife was shmall-pox. Calf bellowed with fright—ran home-came back—'tamme,' I ' say, .'there he comeagain'—'shmallpox in that grave,' say I. Joke

—ain't It?' and he stopped to drain offanotherpint of rum. •

"Biggest joke out of jail," said the Nor'-wester dryly, with meaning which Louis didnot grasp. -{'.'•'.'-. - ; i-yV.

"Ask him where she Is," I whispered,"quick! He's going to sleep." For Loul3wiped his beard on his sleeve and lay backhopelessly drunk. ":

"Here, you, waken up," commanded theNor'wester, kicking him and shaking himroughly. "Where's the gal?"

"Shioux—Pays dEn Haut," drawled tbeyouth. "Take off your boots! \u25a0 Don't. wearboots. Pays dEn Haut—moccasins—softer,"and he rolled over in a sodden sleep, whichdefied all our efforts to shake him into con-sciousness,,

"Is tha true?" asked the Nor'wester,standing above the drunk man and speakingacross to me. "Is that true about the Indiankidnapping a woman?"

"True—too terribly true," I whispered back."I'd like to" boot him Into the next world,"

oaid the trader, looking down at Louis in amanner that might have alarmed that youthfor his safety. "I've bagged H. B. dispatches,anyway," he added with satisfaction.

"Whatil we do with, him?" Tasked aim-lessly. "If he had anything to do with thestealing of Hamilton's wife"

"He hadn't," Interrupted the trader." 'Twas Diable did that, so- Laplante says."

"Then what shall we do with him?"'.'Dowith—him," slowly repeated the Nor'-

wester in a low, vibrating Voice. "Dowith—him?" and again I felt a vague shudderof apprehension at this silent, uncompromis-ing man's purpose. ";'-,'. '

The camp fires were dead. Not a sound camefrom the men in the woods and there wasa gray light on the water with a vague stir-ring of birds through the folicge overhead.Now I would not have any man judge us bythe canons of civilization. Under the ancientrule of the fur companies over the wilds ofthe north, 'twas bullets and blades put thefear "of the Lord In evil hearts. As westooped to gather up the tell-tale flasks, thedrunken knave, who had lightly allowed aninnocent white woman to go into Indian cap-tivity, lay with bared chest not ja hand'slength from a knife he had thrown down. Didthe Nor'wester and I hesitate, and look fromthe man to the dagger, and from the daggerto the man;" or is this an evil dream from ablack past? Miriam, the guiltless, was suffer-ing: at his hands; should not he, the guilty,suffer at ours? Surely Slsera was not moreinmistakably' delivered Into the power of hisenemies by the Lord than this man; and Si-sera. was discomfited .'by Barak and Jael.Heber's wife—says the Book—drove a tentnail—through the temples—of the'sleepingman—and slew him! Day was when I thoughtthe Old Volume recorded tco many deeds ofbloodshed in the wilderness for the instruc-tion of our refined generation; tut I, too, '

have since lived In the wilderness and learnedthat soft speech is not the weapon of strongmen overmastering savagery.I know the trader and I were thinking the

same thoughts and reading each other'sthoughts; for we stood silent above the drunkman, neither moving,. neither uttering aword. ' "'\u25a0.\u25a0'"\u25a0' '\u25a0'' 'x'^,::..'-" ...

"Well?" I finally questioned in a whisper.. "Well," said he, and he knelt down andpicked up the knife. 'Twould serve himright." Ha was speaking In the low, gentle,purring voice he had used in the tent."'Twould serve him jolly right," and heknelt over Louis hesitating. '"'*',- ;. •-•My eyes followed his slow, deliberate mo-tions with horror. Terror seemed to robme of the power of speech. I felt my bloodfreeze with the fear of some impending crime.There was the faintest perceptible flutteringof.leaves; and we both startetdup as If wehad been assassins, glancing fearfully Into thegloom of the forest. All the woods seemedalive with horrified eyes and whisperings.

"Stop!" I gasped. "This Is madness, themadness of the murderer. What would youdo?" And I was trying to knock the knifeout of his hand, when among the shadowygreen of the foliage an open space suddenlyresolved itself into a human face, and therelooked out upon us gleaming eyes like thoseof a crouching panther.

'"Squeamish fool!" muttered the Nor'weet-er, raising his arm.

"Stop!" I implored. "We are watched.See!" and I pointed to the face, that as sud-denly vanished Into blackness. .

We both leaped Into the thicket, pistol Inhand, to wreak punishment on the Interloper.There was only an Indistinct sound as cfsomething receding into the darkness.

"Don't fire," said I, V 'twill alarm thecamp." . yy'*y -. "-'

At lmlmnent risk to our own lives, wepoked sticks through the thicket and felt forour unseen enemy, but found nothing.

"Let's go and peg him out on the sand,where the Hudson's Bay will see him whenthey come ".this way," suggested the Nor'-wester, referring to Laplante.

"Yes, or handcuff him and take. him alongprisoner," I added, thinking Louis might havemore information.

But when we stepped back to the beach,there was no Louis Laplante. .

"He was too drunk to go himself," said I,aghast at ' the certainty, which now camehome to me, that we had been watched.

"I wash "my:; hands of the whole affair,"declared the trader,: In a state of high indig-nation, and he strode off to his tent, I, follow-ing, with uncomfortable reflections troopinginto my mind." Compunctions rankled in self-respect. How: near we had been to a brutalmurder, to crime which makes men shun theperpetrators::' Civilization's veneer was rub-bing off at an alarming rate. This thoughtstuck, but for obvious reasons was not pur-sued. Also I learned that the worst and bestof outlaws easily " justify: their acts at thetime they commit them; but afterwards!terwards Is a different matter, for the thingis past undoing. : y y •'.. I heard the trader snorting out Inarticulatedisgust as he tumbled into his tent; but 1stood above the embers of the campfire think-ing. Again I felt with a creepiness that-setall my ' flesh " quaking, felt rather than saw,those maddening tiger eyes of the dark foliagewatching \me. Looking up, I found my mo-rose canoeman on the other side of the fire,leaning so close to a tree he was barely visi-ble in the shadows. Thinking himself unseenby me, he wore such an insolent, amused,malicious expression, I knew in an instant

who the interloper had been and who * hadcarried Louis off. Before I realised that suchan act entails lifelong enmity'with an Indian,I had bounded over the fire/and struck himwith all my strength full in the face. Atthat, instead of knifing me as an Indian ordi-narily would, he burst Into hyena shrieks oflaughter. He who has heard that sound needhear it only once to have the echo ring for-ever in his ears; and I have heard it oft andknow it well. ' '--'rl!mffllffi*affl&Wk''Spy! Sneak!" I muttered, rushing uponhim. But he sprang back . Into the forestand vanished. In dodging me*, he let fall hisfowling.piece, which went off with a banginto the fire.

"Hulloo! What's wrong out there?" bawledthe trader's voice from the tent.

"Nothing—false alarm!" I called reassur-ingly. Then there caught my eyes whatstartled me out of all presence of mind.There, reflecting the glare of the firelightwas the Indian's fowling piece, richlymounted in burnished silver and chased inthe rare design of Eric Hamilton's familycrest. The morose canoeman was Le GrandDiable. ; . ,

A few hours later I was in the thick of aconfused re-embarking. Le Grand Diabletook a place In another boat, and a freshhand was assigned to my canoe. Of that Iwas glad; I could sleep sounder and he, safer.The Bourgeois complained that too much rumhad been given out.

"Keep a slitter hand on your men, boy,or they'll ride over your head," one of thechief traders remarked to me.

The return of Haverly's Mastodon Min-strels is announced for the , week -com-mencing to-morrow night. There are

three, perhaps four, mmHAVERLY strel companies of the

first class now on theMINSTRELS, road, but Haverly's alone

preserves orthodox min-strel traditions without a single devia-tion from the genuine black-face per-formance. A pessimistic wall has beenheard in the theatrical world that theblack-faced minstrel show had passed intothe bygone and was but a memory ofpalmy days of yore. It remained for W.E. Nankeville, who now controls theHaverly interests, to explode the fallacyof this contention. Preserving withfaithfulness original minstrel texts andtraditions, he packed the largest theatresfrom New York to San Francisco, achiev-ing a degree of aucceaa -which has led him

Thisportion of tho show is much stronger thisseason, among other additions to thevocal corps being George Morgan, a re-cent importation form England, with avoice that is expected to create a sensa-tion here. The olio, which will be madeup exclusively of legitimate minstrel acts,good, old-fashioned minstrel traditionbeing rigidly adhered to, includes theirresistible monologue and parodies ofGeorge Wilson, the musical act of Gar-den and Somers, which was one of thehits of last season, and a number of nov-elties, closing with the famous Trentonifamily in a humorous black pantomimeentitled "The House of Trouble."

trouble begins. Now, while Frost likesquiet he is giddy and makes love to threemaidens at the hotel. This is found outby Swift a lawyer who proposes thatthey bring separate suits against the ice-man for break of promise. He needs feesso that he can marry Elsie Bollver andwith three cases in court he has a chanceto win the girl. Poor Frost gets intothe cellar of the hotel and comes out, notof bis own acocrd, but for the reason thatall the fireworks explode and put him out.He wants damages and makes case num-ber four for Swift. To get damagesit is necesasry that Frost shall playcrazy and Dr. Cuticle is only too anxiousto pronounce his future brother-in-law in-sane in order to hasten the marriage withthe spinster. In the end, which comesin the warden's room at the Nutville In-sane Asylum, everything comes out tothe advantage of Swift, the breach ofpromise suits are dismissed; the hotelproprietor compromises with the icemanand he gets a fee for arranging the mar-riage between Dr. Cuticle and the spin-

MusicOlive Fremstadt, a Minneapolis girl and a

former pupil of Lilli Lehmann, carried off allthe honors at the second performance in thenew Prince Regent's theater at Munich andher representation of Brangaene in "Tristanand Isolde" was regarded as by long.oddsthe most notable artistic achievement of theevening. Mine. Nordica has not yet appearedthere, but with Miss Fremstadt she seemslikely to make the series of performancesnotable chiefly for the work of the Ameri-cans who take part in them. The Isolde atthe flrst representation of "Tristan undIsolde" was Kathi Rettaque, who has sungIn New York. .

! Miss Fremstadt went abroad with Mme.Lehmann and her career has so far beenconfined exclusively to the German opera-houses. She sang at Bayreuth and was af-terward engaged for several seasons at Co-logne, where Sophie Traubmann, a New Yorksinger, was also popular until she returnedto New York and after marrying a richhusband retired from the stage. Miss Frem-stadt is now a member of the company atMunich, but, like all good Americans andopera singers, she has her ambitions fixedon New York and the Metropolitan. She israpidly proving her right to this distinction.

Mme. Nordlca's experiences In Munich willbe Interesting, as It will be her flrst appear-ance In Germany in any" of the more dra-matic Wagner operas, and she ought totriumph among her associates at the present"Wagner performances given in rivalry to theBayreuth festival series. Whatever the out-come of the experiment may be, it is certainto reflect great honor on the two Americanswho have taken part in It.

In a letter to the Chicago Record-Her-ald from Bergen, Norway, dated July 23,William E. Curtis says:

Bergen, Norway, July 23.—1n additionto Senator Nelson of Minnesota there arein the United States several importantmen of Norwegian birth who came fromthis vicinity and of whom their fellowcountrymen are naturally proud. Every-body knows Professor Hjalmar H. Boyesenof Columbia College and admires hisscholarship and literary gifts. Mr. Ot-jen, one of the Wisconsin delegation incongress, has been equally successful inpolitics, and ex-Representative Nils P.Haugen, who served several terms in con-gress with great credit and is now statetax commissioner for Wisconsin, was bornnear Trondhjem. There is another Mr.Haugen, a banker in Chicago, who camefrom Christiania. John Anderson, theChicago publisher, and his old neighborstake a great interest and pride in his suc-cess. A: A. Thorpe, the well-known boardof trade man of Chicago,'"was born insouthern Norway. He was the pioneer inplacing Chicago meat products in the Nor-wegian market and importing Norwegianfish into ' America. O. W. Johnson ofWicker Park, Chicago, is also a nativeof this part of the country. His formerneighbors here have learned that he hasbecome very rich and send him their con-gratulations. Paul' 0. Stensland, presi-dent of the Milwaukee Avenue bank, Chi-cago, was born on a farm in what isknown as the Gudbrandsdalen district,where some of the best of the Norwegianscame from. Halle Stensland, president ofthe Hekla Iron company of Wisconsin,who is well known for his enterprise andgreat wealth and who exercises a wideinfluence throughout the west, came fromthe same locality.

Alexander Bull, of Wisconsin, a son ofOle Bull, the great musician, was bornhere in Bergen, as was also Dr. Bockmannthe famous oculist of St. Paul, who is sur-geon general of Minnesota. Eriksen, thedry goods merchant of Chicago, is a Ber-genite, and the people here also claim Mr.Willistad of Rucker street. Dr. Nidelfort,of La Crosse, Wis., is descended from oneof the leading patriots of Norway who rep-resented Bergen in the Eidsvold conven-tion of 1814 which formed the present gov-ernment and wrote the constitution ofNorway. Johannes Reimers, author of"The Heights of Simplicity," is a son ofHenrik Reimers, a tobacconist of Bergen.Mr. Ravin, the Norwegian consul generalat New York, is a Bergenite, Harold Gade,a Philadelphia engineer of prominence,is a son of F. G. Gade, one of the mostprominent citizens of Bergen. Mr. Lock-wood, a merchant in Boston, is a Norwe-giamby.birth and has a brother here, Jus-tus ' Lockwood. Their grandfather wascaptain.of a ship trading between Europeand Boston a hundred years ago, and dur-ing the war of 1812 was chased into theharbor of Bergen by a British privateer.His ship was captured with everything that

, he owned in the world, so he decided toremain here. He became a citizen of Nor-way, married into one cf the best familiesand his sens have done honor to his adopt-ed country. Mr. Vedeler, an engineer onthe Chesapeake & Ohio railway,- is abrother of Dr. Krohn Vedeler of Bergen.There are several other Bergenites in the :United States, but I haven't time to refer j

Ito them all. The connection between thisjcity and our own country is. therefore,jvery close, and it is made even closer by 1

1 the large number of Americanized Norwe-gians who have returned here to live.

One of the most prominent of this class,and the present vice consul of the UnitedStates, is Thorwald Beyer, who was for |several years connected with the firm of j

! Cameron, Amberg & Co., Chicago, and now I' conducts a business similar to theirs in j

J this city, handling stationery, doing print- jI ing of.all kinds and bookbinding, and em-; ploying several men in that part of his !establishment. t He has a book store and a i

tourist's bazar filled with all sorts of na- j.tive goods, photographs and other plunder

that American visitors carry back as pres-ents to the loved ones at home. Mr.Beyer is also proprietor of a tourist's

' agency similar to Cook's, and. sends "per-

jsonally conducted" excursion partiesthrough this part of the country. Theprinting and stationery business was es-tablished by his grandfather in 1771, butthat is not. an unusual circumstance in

this country. All through Norway; you

will find trades and business enterprises

that have been inherited by generation af-

ter generation for centuries. Mr. Beyer

has introduced Chicago methods into Ber-gen, and is looked upon by his fellow citi-zens as a Yankee hustler. y; .-

Lars Lee, Bergen correspondent of TheRecord-Herald and official translator, andinterpreter for the Norwegian courts, con-ducts an English school. yHe went to theUnited States when a boy, enlisted in theregular army, and served with the Secondcavalry on the frontier jfor several yearsuntil he was . disabled Iby a wound. .

of Chicago, has a large establishment herefor the sale of American machinery, toolsand implements. He has been active andsuccessful in introducing American manu-factures into Norway. Sigurd Daae, for-merly of Chicago, is manager of -Brunn'srebslageri (rope factory); Conrad Nor-strand, also of Chicago, is in the grocerybusiness, and Edward O. Ellingson is run-ning a shoo factory. Agnus Stoltz is themanager of a thread factory, and Rasmus'Rasmussen, a popular actor, is also aChicago man. There are several otherChicago people here, and as far as I canlearn they are all doing well.

The medical schools of the United Statesbear a high reputation in Norway,, as theydo .in every other part of the world. , Youwill find their graduates in dentistry inevery large city of Europe, Asia, Africaand South America. Dr. Bentzen andMartine Magnus, the leading dentists ofBergen, were both educated In the .UnitedStates. . Halfdan ; Wiberg, the principalphotographer, learned his business inAmerica. Dr. Leith, princpal of the schoolof engineering, was educated in theUnited States. Jacob Irgene; proprietorof an express company here, is fromPortland, Oregon. Johan H. Paasche, asteamship agent, is from Montana. Cap-tain Walle, who commands a steamer ofthe principal local transportation line,served in the army of the Cumberland.Mr. Underdal, proprietor of the only tobac-co plantation in Norway, and who intro-duced 1 the first tobacco plants into thecountry, spent the best part of his life inour western states. ';y ?

There are twelve or more pensionersof the United States government in Ber-gen in addition to Mr. Lea, and at leasttwo Bergen widows are now seeking pen-sions for sons killed in the Spanish war.There are several '' Bergen boys in theUnited States navy, ' and the people hereare. watching their career with greatpride and interest.

It is a singular fact, however, that dur-ing the recent war nearly all the prin-cipal newspapers of Norway sympathizedwith Spain and showed considerable illfeeling toward us. Everybody will tell youthat they accurately represent the un-friendly sentiment that prevails among thehigher classes of this country. I am quitesure that this . opinion is exaggerated,but of its existence there can be.no doubt,and it is based upon/natural reasons. Theprincipal one is the'emigration movement,which is constantly capping the strengthof Norway. The best men, the most pro-gressive, the most ambitious among thelower and middle classes are found amongthe emigrants, and the highest aspirationof every ,boy in Norway is to become acitizen of the United States. Men of largeproperty and business- enterprises realizethis more than the public generally, be-cause: it deprives - them of their ablestmechanics and most skillful operatives.The object of all-emigrants is to betterthemselves, to acquire homes of theirown and independent fortunes, and thishas been the record of so many Nor-wegians who have crossed the sea thatthose who are compelled to struggle alongat home feel a sense of injury. Further-more, the property owning and the em-ployer classes in Norway accuse the

j Americanized Norwegians of breeding dis-j content among their fellow countrymenat home. This is, no doubt, true in agreat measure. '

Norwegian peasants, sons of farmers,mechanics and laborers, who go to theUnited States and by their ability, in-dustry and enterprise become bankers, i

J merchants and lawyers, and acquire posi- 'I tions of prominence and influence, fre-| quently come back to their old homes and| are the objects of great interest. Theyj are not always discreet in.their conduct

l nor generous in their comparisons. Some! of them are given to boasting of the ad-| vantages petple in America enjoy. Thej visit of sush a man to a Norwegian com-munity cause an excitement and unrestfrom which it takes a long time to re-cover. This of. itself excites prejudiceand resentment; among the people whohave not been so fortunate in worldlyaffairs. . , .". \u0084 y

There has also been considerable com-petition in manufactured goods. The su-periority of American machinery and agri-cultural implements is acknowledged, re-luctantly, of course, because it cannot bedenied, and of late years ( prices havebeen -going down -and down, ; until themanufacturers at: home can outsell thoseof Norway in their own market. -: The Norwegians -do " not raise . enoughfood to supply, their own wants. The farm-ers throughout the; northern part of thecountry are ; barely \u25a0•' able to feed \u25a0 them-selves, while in the southern section ofNorway, where the soil is better, the sur-plus is insufficient to supply the demandsof the city population. The deficit is madeup by importations from America. Minne-apolis flour and other breads tuffs and pro-visions p from the United States may befound in every | market. *g- .Way, up in thepolar regions, at the most northerly townin the world, only a day's sail by steamerfrom fields of ' eternal , ice, \u25a0* I' watched agang of men unloading a vessel, the bestpart of the cargo being "Pillsbury's Best."

flour is to expensive for the use of thecommon people. I am told that wheatbread was practically unknown in Norwaybefore 1890, when the harvest failed, andRussia having forbidden the export ofrye, the Norwegians were compelled to buyour wheat flour, and were so pleased withit that the shipments have been increasingannually ever since. .. yv

Norway imports between $50,000,000 and$60,000,000 worth of foreign merchandiseannually, consisting mostly of groceries,textile goods, machinery, iron and steel ofvarious sorts, hardware, drugs and medi-cines and other necessaries of life. Theimportations of luxuries are comparativelylimited. • 7?hirty per cent of the goodscome from Great Britain regularly, andoften as much as 50 per cent. Germanyis second on the list with about 20 percent, Sweden, has .15 per cent, while theUnited States has only about 8 per centof the total to her credit and stands downnear the end of the row. It should bestated, however, that the indirect importa-tions through Germany and Great Britainare even larger than the direct Importa-tions, and Norway's trade with the UnitedStates is much more valuable than theofficial returns would indicate. All goodsthat are shipped by way of Liverpool andother English ports and by way of Ham-burg, Bremen and other German ports arecredited to those countries. For example,the shipments of pork products from GreatBritain to Norway amount to 6,000,000or 7,000,000 pounds every year, all ofwhich comes from the United States, andprobably the greater part of the bread-stuffs credited to England came from theUnited States, although a small portionmay have come from Australia or the Ar-gentine Republic.

Our direct exports to Norway, whichamount to about $250,000,000 annually, arechiefly petroleum, breadstuffs, hides andleather, pork products and other provi-sions, with a little railroad iron and ma-chinery and agricultural implements. • Allwe get from Norway in return is wood pulpand preserved fish. -

One of the most important exports fromthe United States to Norway is moneyorders and steamship tickets. The Nor-wegians in America are very generous to-ward their parents and poor relations inthe old country, and at the Christmasseason particularly send them large sumsof money by postal orders and still larg-

er amounts by drafts. The most unique

welcome Christmas present -that an Nor-wegian can receive \ from America is asteamship ticket, and, while it is impossi-ble to give the exact number sent eachyear, it is very large. ..".:,.;

It is also impossible to give the amountof bank drafts and other forms of money

that go through the mails,' but the postalorders are a matter of record and for thelast ten years were as followsin kroner: !

1891 1,978,2101896' ......... 2,684,1721892 2,192,312 j1897 1,983,4501893 ...........2,251,214 ... 1,986,0971894 ............1,843,635 1899 ••.'.'.' .2,160,7991895 1,905,0711900 4M.K3

This makes a total of 21,502,828 kronerfor the last ten years or an average of2,150,283 kroner per year, J and probably

represents much less than; one-half of themoney sent from' the United States toNorway.

THEATERSBILLS OF. THE WEEK

Haverly's Minstrels—at the Met-ropolitan.

•Wight of the Fourth"—at theBijou. ,

The return of Haverly's Mastodon Min-strels is announced for the . week com-mencing to-morrow night. There are

three, perhaps four, mmHAVERLY 6trel companies of the

flrst class now on theMINSTRELS, road, but Haverly's alone

preserves orthodox min-strel traditions without a single devia-tion from the genuine black-face per-formance. A pessimistic wail has beenheard in the theatrical world that theblack-faced minstrel show had passed intothe bygone and was but a memory ofpalmy days of yore. It remained for W.E. Nankevllle, who now controls theHaverly Interests, to explode the fallacyof this contention. Preserving withfaithfulness original minstrel texts andtraditions, he packed the largest theatresfrom New York to San Francisco, achiev-ing a degree of success vrblch has led him

'cott's songs this - season are withoutdoubt gems. "."-".;: -

In addition to the regular Wednesdayand Saturday .matinees at the Bijou aspecial . matinee will be given on Mon-

day, Sept. 2, Labor Day."THE NIGHT The occasion will serve

to present Mathews and• X OF Bulger in the laughable

farce, ! "The Night of theTHE FOURTH" Fourth. New scenery has

been provided at the Bijou,miles of new rope has been added to therigging aloft to provide for the hangingsof the extensive scenic requirements ofthe big scenic attractions of this season.The dressing rooms have been decoratedand painted in a most appropriate manner.The play in question was seen here lastseason, although at the time of its local,presentation it was still in its infancy.It has matured, it is said, into a comedyin humor, deep in music and alive with allkinds of laugh-making incidents, scenesand climaxes.

The story of the play opens at theSummer Rest hotel. Eli Frost, a re-tired iceman, want's quiet and seeks thehotel, but the Fourth of July comes and

Thisportion of tha show is much stronger thisseason, among other additions to thevocal corps being George Morgan, a re-cent importation form England, with avoice that is expected to create a sensa-tion here. The olio, which will be madeup exclusively of legitimate minstrel acts,good, old-fashioned minstrel traditionbeing rigidly adhered to, includes theirresistible monologue and parodies ofGeorge Wilson, the musical act of Gar-den and Somers, which was one of thehits of last season, and a number of nov-elties, closing with the famous Trentonifamily in a humorous black pantomimeentitled "Tho House of Trouble." Thecompany carries a fullband and orchestra

This is found outby Swift a lawyer who proposes thatthey bring separate suits against the ice-man for break of promise. He needs feesso that he can marry Elsie Boliver andwith three cases in court he has a chanceto win the girl.

"In Old Kentucky" comes, to the Bijou ifollowing Mathews, & Bulger. It is now -jin its ninth year and apparently as strong

\u25a0y in popular favor as"IN OLD "i'-.'f'l ever. The original

-company will appearKENTUCKY." - here. Its series of

\u25a0i\: truthful pictures ofsouthern life have caught" the fancy ofplaygoers wherever the play "has beenpresented. It is a melodramatic spectacle

of great splendor, and a* complete newoutfit of scenery has* been gotten" up forthis j season's j tour. A. great, feature ismade of the race and it is a real race so

1 far as ,it is possible to have one ion thestage—the horses making a wild dash

\across' the stage ; and under the wire infull view of the audience. A view of thefamous Lexington race track is-, shown,with the grand stand filled'with specta-tors, the bookmakers crying the odds and

The paddock is also < shown, withthe horses, jockeys touts and other attend-ants, the weighing in, the mount andthe other bits of business common to suchplaces. Another scene is a grand andawe-inspiring view of the Kentucky moun-tains, showing a tremendous chasm span-ned by a small footbridge and built to aheight of thirty feet It is in this act thatlovers of melodrama will find plenty ofexcitement. The bridge falls into thegorge and the heroine makes a flying swingacross the chasm hanging to a rope,saves her lover from impending death bypicking up a dynamite bomb, which isabout to explode, and hurls it into thegorge where it explodes with terrific forte,shattering the walls of the precipice andcausing the whole mass to fall. A featureof the play that has attracted widespreadattention is the pickanniny band. \u25a0-•

Footllebt Flashes."The Burgomaster" is one of the rather

welcome and early bookings at the Metropoli-tan for the coming season.

In "Her Lord and .Master,'.', the new playwhich Martha Morton has written for Her-bert Kelcey and Effle Shannon, these twosuccessful stars believe they will have thisseason a vehicle that will prove as popularas did Clyde Fitch's "The Moth and theFlame."

Of all the characters Stuart Robson hasplayed, his sympathies, he says, are strong-est with "Bertie Van Alstyne," the meeklamb in "The Henrietta," which he will pre-sent in this city during the coming season

The musical comedy, "The Casino Girl,"which comes to the Metropolitan early inthe season. Is by Harry B. Smith and Lud-wig Englander, the former having writtenthe libretto and the latter being responsiblefor a very tuneful score.

It is stated that William Collier, who isto present Augustus Thomas' successful play,"On the Quiet," the coming season underthe management of Jacob Litt, will covermore territory than any other stellar theat-rical attraction. His season will open onthe 2d of September In Brooklyn, and heproduces a new play in New York city earlyin February. During the interim Mr. Collierwill visit the cities of the Pacific coast viaMinneapolis. The trip will be close to 20,000miles.

"The Irish Pawnbrokers," which met-withsuch favor on the occasion of its productionlast summer, is scheduled to appear at theBijou soon.• Among the early bookings at the Bijou is

Guy F. Steely's polite comedy, 'Hunting forHawkins." The comedy is written in threeacts.

"A Common Sinner," a drama but recentlyproduced and which is accredited with mak-ing a big hit, will-be seen at the Bijoushortly.

"The Night Before Christmas is the titleof a new play that was produced last sea-son and which met with almost instantaneoussuccess. "7- .-

Ward & Yokes will be seen in the twincities in October.

MusicOlive Fremstadt, a Minneapolis girl and a

former pupil of Lilli Lehmann, carried off allthe honors at the second performance In thenew Prince Regent's theater at Munich andher representation of Brangaene in "Tristanand Isolde" was regarded as by long oddsthe most notable artistic achievement of theevening. Mme. Nordica has not yet appearedthere, but with Miss Fremstadt she seemslikely to make the series of performancesnotable chiefly for the work of the Ameri-cans who take part in them. The Isolde atthe first representation of "Tristan undIsolde" was Kathl Rettaque, who has sungIn New York. .

Miss Fremstadt went abroad with Mme.Lehmann and her career has so far beenconfined exclusively to the German , opera-houses. She sang at Bayreuth and was af-terward engaged for several seasons at Co-logne, where Sophie Traubmann, a New Yorksinger, was also popular until she returnedto New York and after marrying a richhusband retired from the stage. . Miss Frem-stadt Is now a member of the company atMunich, but, like all good Americans andopera singers, she has her ambitions fixedon New York and the Metropolitan. She Israpidly proving her right to this distinction.

Mme. Nordlca's experiences in Munich willbe Interesting, as. it will be her flrst appear-ance in Germany In any of the more dra-matic Wagner operas, and she ought totriumph among her associates at the presentWagner performances given in rivalry to theBayreuth festival series. Whatever the out-come of the experiment may be, It is certainto reflect great honor on the two Americanswho have taken part in it.'

Geraldlne Farrar, a young Bostonian, hascreated so favorable an impression amongthe managers by her Italian rendition of Mar-guerite In "Faust" that the Berlin Royalopera directors have waived the rule requir-ing that It shall be sung in German and winpermit her to sing it in Italian at her debutin October.

In a letter to the Chicago Record-Her-ald from Bergen, Norway, dated July 23,William E. Curtis says:

Bergen, Norway, July 23.—In additionto Senator Nelson of Minnesota there arein the United States several importantmen of Norwegian birth who came fromthis vicinity and of whom their fellowcountrymen are naturally proud. Every-

Ibody knows Professor Hjalmar H. Boyesenof Columbia College and admires hisscholarship and literary gifts. Mr. Ot-jen, one of the Wisconsin delegation incongress, has been equally successful inpolitics, and ex-Representative Nils P.Haugen, who served several terms In con-gress with great credit and is now statetax commissioner for Wisconsin, was bornnear Trondhjem. There is another Mr.Haugen, a banker in Chicago, who cam©from Christlania. John Anderson, theChicago publisher, and " his old neighborstake a great interest 1and pride in his suc-cess. A. A. Thorpe, the well-known boardof trade man of Chicago, was born insouthern Norway. He was the pioneer inplacing Chicago meat products in the Nor-wegian market and importing Norwegianfish into ' America. " *0. W. Johnson ofWicker Park, Chicago, is also a nativeof this part of the country. His formerneighbors here have learned that he hasbecome very rich and send him their con-gratulations. Paul O. Stensland, presi-dent of the Milwaukee Avenue bank, Chi-cago, was born on a farm in what isknown as the Gudbrandsdalen district,where some of the best of the Norwegianscame from. Halle Stensland, president ofthe Hekla Iron company of Wisconsin,who is well known for his enterprise andgreat wealth and who exercises a wideinfluence throughout the west, came fromthe same locality.

Alexander Bull, of Wisconsin, a son ofOle Bull, the great musician, was bornhere in Bergen, as was also Dr. Bockmannthe famous oculist of St. Paul, who is sur-geon general of Minnesota. Eriksen, thedry goods merchant of Chicago, is a Ber-genite, and the people here also claim Mr.Willistad of Rucker street. Dr. Nidelfort,of La Crosse, Wis., is descended from oneof the leading patriots of Norway who rep-resented Bergen in the Eidsvold conven-tion of 1814 which formed the present gov-ernment and wrote the constitution ofNorway. Johannes Reimers, author of"The Heights of Simplicity," is a son ofHenrik Reimers, a tobacconist of Bergen.Mr. Ravin, the Norwegian consul generalat New York, is a Bergenite, Harold Gade,a Philadelphia engineer of prominence,is a son of F. G. Gade, one of the mostprominent citizens of Bergen. Mr. Lock-wood, a merchant in Boston, is a Norwe-gian by birth and has a brother here, Jus-tus Lockwood. Their grandfather wascaptain of a ship trading between Europe

and Boston a hundred years ago, and dur-ing the war of ISI2 was chased into theharbor of Bergen by a British privateer.His ship was captured with everything thathe owned in the world, so he decided toremain here. He became a citizen of Nor-way, married into one cf the best familiesand his sens have done honor to his adopt-ed country. Mr. Vedeler, an engineer onthe Chesapeake & Ohio railway,' is,.abrother of Dr. Krohn Vedeler of Bergen.

There are several other Bergenites in the >

United States, but I haven't time to refer ;to them all. The connection between this

i city and our own country is, therefore,very close, and it is made even closer by |

the large number of Americanized Norwe-gians who have returned here to live.

One of the most prominent of this class,and the present vice consul of the UnitedStates, is Thorwald Beyer, who was forseveral years connected with the firm of j

! Cameron, Amberg & Co., Chicago, and now Ii conducts a business similar to theirs in !jthis city, handling stationery, doing print- jjing of all kinds and bookbinding, and em-ploying several men in that part of his !establishment. „ He has a book store and atourist's baz?.r filled with all sorts of na-tive goods, photographs and ether plunder

that American visitors carry back as pres-

ents to the loved ones at home. Mr.Beyer is also proprietor of a tourist's

I agency similar to Cook's, and sends "per-

! sonally conducted" excursion partiesthrough this part of the country. The

I printing and stationery business was es-tablished by his grandfather in 1771, butthat is not an unusual circumstance in

this country. All through Norway youwill find trades and business enterprises

that have been inherited by generation af-

ter generation for centuries. Mr. Beyer

has introduced Chicago methods into Ber-gen, and is looked upon by his fellow citi-zens as a Yankee hustler. :.v;^ ;

The opening march, "Repasz Band,"played for the first time, is followed by

Boieldieu's overture, "The Caliph of Bag-dad." Of.all. Mr. * Selling's compositions,the concert waltz, ''The Proposal," is themost popular, and it will be the thirdnumber. A new sacred sofig, "Beyond theGates of Paradise," will be played by theband for the first time, and will be founda worthy companion for "The Holy City."A selection from Verdi's "I Lombardi"finishes the first part. The ever-popular"William Tell" overture and "Pas I dcsFleurs," from Delibes ballet "Naila," arenotable in the second part, the otherpieces being solely of a poular character.

Aub. r'» i s Diamants de la" Couronne"will be the overture in the evening pro-gram, and J. Hansen, who has attractedmuch attention during the season by hisbarytone solos, will render a solo on hisfavorite instrument, the trombone. An-'other pleasing number will be Vollstedt'sdescriptive waltz, "The Jolly Fellows,",with its inspiring strains. The operacomposers will .be represented by Jac-obowski.'s "Erminie," and the ragtimersby "The Hottest Coon in Dixie." Theprogram in full:

of Chicago, has a large establishment herefor the sale of American machinery, toolsand Implements. He has been active andsuccessful in introducing American manu-factures into Norway. Sigurd Daae, for-merly of Chicago, is manager of Brunn'srebslageri (rope factory); Conrad Nor-strand, also of Chicago, is in the grocerybusiness, and Edward 0. Ellingson is run-ning a shoe factory. Agnus Stoltz is themanager of a thread factory, and RasmusRasmussen, a popular actor, is also aChicago man. There are several otherChicago people here, and far as I canlearn they are all doing well.

The medical schools of ttie United Statesbear a high reputation in Norway,, as theydo .in every other part of the world. , Youwill find their graduates In dentistry inevery large city of Europe, Asia, Africaand South America. Dr. Bentzen andMartina Magnus, the leading dentists ofBergen, were both educated In the .UnitedStates. . Halfdan Wiberg, the principal'photographer, learned his business inAmerica. Dr. Leith, princpal of the schoolof engineering, was educated in theUnited States. Jacob Irgens, proprietorof an express company here, is fromPortland, Oregon. Johan H. Paasche, asteamship agent, is from Montana. Cap-tain Walle, who commands a steamer ofthe principal local transportation line,served in the army of the Cumberland.Mr.Underdal, proprietor of the only tobac-co plantation In Norway, and who intro-duced: the first tobacco plants into thecountry, spent the best part of his life inour western states.

There are twelve or more pensionersof the United States government in Ber-gen in addition to Mr. Lea, and at least•two Bergen widows are now seeking pen-sions for sons killed In the Spanish war.There are several Bergen boys in theUnited States' navy, and the people hereare watching their career with greatpride and interest.

It is a singular fact, however, that dur-ing the recent war nearly all the prin-cipal newspapers of Norway sympathizedwith • Spain and showed considerable illfeeling toward us. Everybody will tell youthat they accurately represent the un-friendly sentiment that prevails among thehigher classes of this country. I am quitesure that this opinion is exaggerated,but of its existence there can be.no doubt,and it is based upon/natural reasons. Theprincipal one is the emigration movement,which Is constantly sapping the strengthof Norway. The best men, the most pro-gressive, the most ambitious among thelower and middle classes are found amongthe emigrants, and the highest aspirationof every , boy in Norway Is to become acitizen of the' United States. Men of largeproperty and business enterprises realizethis more than the public generally, be-cause- it- deprives them of their ablestmechanics and most skillful operatives.The object of all emigrants is to betterthemselves, to acquire homes of theirown and independent fortunes, and thishas been the record of so many Nor-wegians who have crossed the sea thatthose who are compelled to struggle alongat home feel a sense of injury. Further-more, the property owning and the em-ployer classes in Norway accuse theAmericanized Norwegians of breeding dis-content among their fellow countrymenat home. This is, no doubt, true in agreat measure. , ' -

Norwegian peasants, sons of farmers,mechanics and laborers, who go to theUnited States and by their ability, in-dustry and enterprise become bankers, imerchants and lawyers, and acquire posi- 'tions of prominence and influence, fre-quently come back to their old homes andare the objects of great interest. Theyare not always discreet in.their conduct

Inor generous in their comparisons. Some: of them are given to boasting of the ad-vantages people in America enjoy. Thevisit of sush a man to a Norwegian com-munity cause an excitement and unrestfrom which it takes a long time to re-

i cover. This of itself excites prejudicejand resentment among the people whohave not been so fortunate in worldlyaffairs. , y,~> •

There has also been considerable com-petition. in manufactured goods. The su-periority of American machinery and agri-cultural implements is acknowledged, re-luctantly, of course, because it cannot bedenied, and of late years vprices havebeen -going down' -and down, until themanufacturers at 'home can outsell thoseof Norway in their own market. :

The Norwegians do i not raise . enoughfood to supply their own wants. The farm-ers throughout' the northern part of thecountry are - barely ; able \u25a0 to feed them- Iselves, while in the southern section ofNorway, where the soil is better, the sur-plus is insufficient to supply the demandsof the city population. . The deficit is madeup by importations from America. ; Minne-apolis flour and other breadstuffs and pro-visions' from : the -United " States may befound in "-every; market. y - .Way up in- thepolar regions, at the most northerly townin the world, only a day's sail by steamerfrom fields of eternal ;»ice, 11. watched \u25a0 agang of men unloading a vessel, the bestpart of the cargo being "Plllabury's Best."

flour is to expensive for the use of thecommon people. I am told that wheatbread was practically unknown in Norwaybefore 1890, when the harvest failed, andRussia having forbidden the export ofrye, the Norwegians were compelled to buyour wheat flour, and were so pleased withit that the shipments have been increasingannually ever since.

Norway imports between $50,000,000 and$60,000,000 worth of foreign merchandiseannually, consisting mostly of groceries,textile goods, machinery, iron and steel ofvarious sorts, hardware, drugs and medi-cines and other necessaries of life. TheImportations of luxuries are comparativelylimited. • thirty per cent of the goodscome from Great Britain regularly, andoften as much as 50 per cent. Germanyis second on the list with about 20 percent, I Sweden, has .15 per cent, while theUnited States has only about 8 per centof the total to her credit and stands downnear the end of the row. It should bestated, however, that the indirect importa-tions through Germany and Great Britainare even larger than the direct importa-tions, and Norway's trade with the UnitedStates is much more valuable than theofficialreturns would indicate. All goodsthat are shipped by way of Liverpool andother English ports and by way of Ham-burg, Bremen and other German ports arecredited to those countries. For example,the shipments of pork products from GreatBritain to Norway amount to 6,000,000or 7,000,000 pounds every year, all ofwhich comes from the United States, andprobably . the greater part of the bread-stuffs credited to England came from theUnited States, although a small portionmay have come from Australia or the Ar-gentine Republic.

Our direct exports to Norway, whichamount to about $250,000,000 annually, arechiefly petroleum, breadstuffs, hides andleather, pork products and other provi-sions, with a little railroad iron and ma-chinery and agricultural Implements. : Allwe get from Norway In return is wood pulpand preserved fish. ' "

One of the most important exports fromthe United States to Norway is moneyorders and steamship tickets. The Nor-wegians in America are very generous to-ward their'parents and poor relations inthe old country, and at the Christmasseason particularly send them large sumsof money by postal orders and still larg-

er amounts by drafts. The most unique

welcome Christmas present that an Nor-wegian can receive I from America is asteamship ticket, and, while it Is Impossi-ble to give the exact number sent eachyear, it is very large.

It Is also impossible to give the amountof bank drafts and other forms of moneythat go through the malls,' but the postalorders are a matter of record and for thelast ten years were as follows in kroner: j1891 1.978,210 1896 \u25a0 .....'..... 2,684,1721892 2,192,312 1897' 1,983,4501893 2,251,214 1,986,0971894

' .......1,843,635 1899 .."." 2,160,7991895 ...........1,905,0711900 *>•**&&

This makes a total of 21,502,828 kronerfor the last ten years or an average of

2,150,283 kroner per year, f and probablyrepresents much less than one-half of themoney sent from the United States toNorway.

South St. Paul, Aug. 31.—HOGS.—Ag-gregate receipts of hogs at leading mar-kets this week were larger by about20,000 than a year ago but fell about 30,000short ot the total supplies tor the previousWnwkJV'MWMiMtLfr' \u25a0 ' ''J~~HtjH

\u25a0 Receipts at the five leading marketsaggregated 263,700, against 291,^00 for theprevious weeK, 30-,t>uu tor the correcpond-ing week a month ago and 244,100 lor thecorresponding week a year ago. At thesefive big maiKets since January Ist, re-ceipts total 12,060,800, against 10,966,300 forthe same period last year, or an increaseof 1,090,600. The supply here for theweek totaled about b.Mv, against 5,092 lorthe week before, 4,463 for ihe same weeka month ago and 4,741 tor the tame weeka year ago.

The condition of trade has been veryfavorable to the selling interests. Whilethere was a nominal-check to the generalliberal marketing, yet; receipts at leauiiigmarkets have still exceeded the runs of ayear ago. The ideal receipts have notbeen up to the requirements of the trade.The demand here was very sirens for ailkinds of. offerings, but especially so forgood to choicelights and butchers, xhesekinds were very scarce and: particularly

ichoice quality. In tact very few hogsIreceived could be called better than justifair and with'these kinds selling from$6 to $6.25 at the close, any tiling choicewould command from 20 to cue par hun-dred pounds more. One ?mall ounch of

ipretty desirable medium weight butcherssold yesterday at jti.3o. -

BUTCHER CATTLE.—Receipts of cattleat leading markets this week exceeded

1last week's marketing by about ll.OOu, anda year ago by about _u,ouO. Aggregate re-jceipts at the five big markets were about160,100, against 14i>,700 for the previous

'week, 156,600 for the corresponding week! a month ago and 131,1.00 tor the corres-ponding week a year ago. Receipts heretotaled only about 3,200, against 4,805 forthe week before, \u25a0 1,6/9 for the same weeka month ago and 5,171 for the same weeka year ago. ; y[''!:'-''•'\u25a0'- The week opened with supplies very lib-eral at iall points and the presence ofsuch a large percentage of grass killing

kinds, was sufficient to warrant a verysharp decline in values on Monday. Thesupply here, however, did not include asmany grass westerns as last week, but insympathy with sharp declines elsewhere,buyers filled their orders at prices fromi 10 to loc lower early in the week, but at

the close the gradual strength during thepast three days leaves prices steady at 10chigher than the close last week and 15 to12oc higher than the low time 'Monday.

There were practically no desirable corn-fed beeves offered on sale, and of the

; week's supply of grass western beeves,

'• there were very few that could even be

called fairly good. Grass cows were also'largely on the inferior order. There wasonly a fair supply of veal calves includedin the daily offerings. The demand was

ivery good, but prevailing conditionscaused values to break fully 50c, ; with

| choicest ones now quoted at $4.75 against' $5.25 at the close last week and $5.50 at

I the best time last week.STOCKERS AND FEEDERS—Tbe

'stocker and feeder trade the past week,: developed a little better tone andthe amount of business done ex-

-1 ceeded that of several weeks pre-

! vious . yet there was not enough

i done \u25a0'"" to really call the trade ac-

tive. Receipts of cattle in this divisionwere less than half!as large as the num-ber on sale a year ago and fell a shadeunder the number ; received last week.

Aggregate* receipts *at leading marketpoints were very liberal but a large per

cent consisted of ripe grass western cat-tle, leaving the supply from the droughtstricken states much smaller than pre-

vious weeks. Late rains through . thesedrought regions has materially" improvedpasturage, as well as greatly benefitted thelate corn crop and in many instances

where farmers and feeders rushed theirstock cattle to market on account of thedry weather, they have during the past

week, been liberal buyers to replenishtheir vacant pastures and feed lots. The

i strength in values which developed

at southern markets has very lit-! tie effect t. on the local trtade; from \u0084 the fact that prices herelocal trade from the fact that prices herehave been relatively higher than at points

; east or south. ,The demand here on coun-itry account > was more - than sufficient to\u25a0 absorb each day's supply and. in manycases there were not enough in the yards

|.to supply their wants. -Prices were not' generally quoted any higher and aside,from some pretty, choice quality yearlings

sold largely from $3.00 to $3.25, while.best!feeders sold from $3.25 to $3.50 and both\u25a0 common to fair : stockers and feeders:ranged from $2.00 to $2.75.1 SHEEPLocaI sheep receipts the past

| week were only fair being about the sameas the total for the week before. Supplierjat leading market-points were quite lib-: eral and with conditions generally very

jfavorable to the selling interests prices atjthe close show considerable strength overthe close a week ago. The demand herefor good to choice quality, fat lambs and

: sheep, was considerably better than dur-ing the closing days of the week before.

jWhile the daily supplies of good desir-able killers were not large enough to'meet the wants of the trade, competition

.for the best en sale soon forced lambs 10cto 20c higher, and sheep 15c to 20c abovethe close a week' ago. Competition on

jone bunch of pretty desirable lambs forcedthe sale price, early in the week, up to$5.00, but at the close choicest are only

(quoted from $4.65 to $4.85. Best .wethers'are quoted from $3.40 to $3.60 while-bestewes are quoted from $3.00 to' $3.25. Therewere a good many stock lambs included,

Jbut only a small percent consisted of fair:to good quality. The best found a prettyready market at prices ranging from $3.0f?to $3.25, while common' to fair ones soldfrom $2.00 to $2.50. Stock ewes sold fron

( $2.00 to"$2.75. :

The Week at Sioux City.Special to The Journal.

Sioux City, lowa, Aug. 31.—Cattle suppliesthe past week were faiily liberal, comprisingabout 4,500, or 1,000 head more than were re-ceived the previous week. The offerings dur-ing the week were about equally divided be-tween stockers and feeders and fat cattle. Thestock cattle market manifested some im-provement early in the week and with a gooddemand from the dealers prices ruled a gooddime higher in all grades. The country out-let, however, did not increase enough to war-rant heavy buying on the part of the specula-

. tors, and after Wednesday weakness devel-oped and the gain of Monday and Tuesdaywas taken off. Good heavy feeders found saleat a range of $3.25 to $3.75, with the commonto fair siockers of all weights at $2.50 to$3.25. There was a good demand for light-weight stuff, but the offerings in this gradewere very few. Some steer calves sold up to$4, and yearlings of fair to good quality

.ranged from $2.75 to $3.50. Feeding cows and¥stock heifers ranged from $2.25 to $2.75.

In fat cattle the bulk of the arrivals weregrassers from points in South Dakota, whichincluded a few consignments of rangers. OnMonday there was a decline of a dime oneverything but the very best, but during thebalance of the week there was no quotablechange in prices. Western steers sold from$3.75 to $4.20, and grass close-ranged steersfrom $3 to $3.60. Buyers were incineld tobe bearish in the cow stuff, which, was not inthe best of flesh. Some .of the good fatcows and heifers sold from $2.75 to $3.25,but the bulk of the medium grades changedhands at $2.40 to $2.75, with the canners downas low as $1.50. 'tt-MBBII

The supply of corn-fed cattle was smallthroughout the week. Price opened up aboutsteady, but with a falling off in supplies atall markets, there was a stronger feelingsand sales at the close were a good dimehigher. The half-fat offerings which cameinto competition with the grassers werequoted lower. Good 1,150 to 1,250-lb steersranged from $5.10 to $5.55, and the rightweights from $4.50 to $5.10. Butcher stuff

Isold from $3.25 to $4.

Hogs— supplies of hogs were just fair,! comprising 16,500, or 1,500 less than the week

before. The receipts at all western pointsshowed a fallingoff, and this was a factor incausing an upward trend in the market. OnFriday the sales averaged 9c higher than theopening day of the week, and reached thehighest price paid on this market since Feb-ruary, 1893, when $8.25 per 100 lbs was paidfor a load. On Friday the range of prices

: was $5.95 to $6.25, and the bulk sold at $6.

ber-laden, was brought in here to-day, leak-\u25a0 ing 'badly, and is now lying sunk to her• bulwarks, despite th- efforts of the crew to

keep her pumped out. The Oneonta left, Duluth in tow of the steamer Turner lastnight. When off Sandy island the schoonersprang a-leak from some unknown reasonand made water so rapidly that the steamer

: started for 'his harbor. The Turner mooredalongside the merchandise dock and the

\ Oneonta was tied up alongside of the steamer.The schooner is immersed to her bulwarks.

• and if it was not for tne lumber of heri cargo she 'would have sunk to the bottom.I Buffalo The steamer M. Sicken was sunk- at the marine elevator dock to-day by the

steamer S S. Curry in a remarkable manner.The Sicken was moored outside of the War-rington and lay twenty feet from the dock.The Curry came in from Erie, going to acoal dock to load. In making the turn intothe Blackwell canal the strong current swungthe Curry's stem around -so that her pro-peller struck the Sicken amidships. A bighole WBs cut in the Sickens side, throughwhich the water poured into the hold. Thesteamen went to the bottom in nineteen feetof water in twenty minutes. She was notloaded. The Sicken carried no insurance

' and has a valuation in Inland • Lloyds of$12,000. ..., Chicago—After the heavy chartering of twoor three days, the grain trade dropped backinto a state of dullness until after the laborholiday. There will be no sessions of theboard of trade until Tuesday and practically

, nothing will be done in the interim.i Cleveland— the Milwaukee West-: crn Fueling company, the combination ofleading dealers at Milwaukee, still holds out

I against raying 50 cents on Ohio coal, allI vessels offered ire being placed at that rate,1 and tonnage is not very plentiful. Ore ton-

nage, is in fair demand and the Marquette, boats are scarce.j" Buffalo—Coal shipments are lighter, though: chartering Is lively. The following engage-ments were reported to-day: Hadley, City

" of Cleveland, Duluth, 35.Alpena—The steamer Philip Minch is at

Middle Island with a broken rudder andshoe. A bucket is also gone from her wheel,

i The captain is awaiting orders.. Detroit—The blockade to navigation at theILimekilns caused by the stranding of the

schooner Antrim was raised at 7 o'clock this! morning by pulling the ship out of her posi-' tlon directly across the channel. Over fiftyboats were detained. Among them was theNorth West, bound from Buffalo to Chicago,which had to remain here for the night. Theblockade was due to the current, which swungthe big vessel around after 500 tons of coalhad been lightered. With her bow on theeast bank and the stern on the west bank,she effectively barred the way into LakeErie. Work was kept up all night and bymorning the Antrim was pulled around intoher original position. It is expected the shipwil be released to-day. There are some badleaks in the bow and the repair bill will beheavy. She was in tow of the steamer Bra-zil when she took a sudden sheer in the chan-nel and landed with her bow on the eastbank. That was last Wednesday, and wreck-ers have been busy ever since trying to getthe vessel afloat.

Cleveland— Some of the coal shippers havecirculated a rumor to the effect that the Stesicorporation ships were soon to begin carry-ing coal, but probably there is no foundationwhatever for It. All vessels offered for ore tothe Steel corporation, as well as other ship-pers, are readily taken, and it Is not, there-fore, probable that they will turn their ownvessels to taking coal cargoes up the lakes,

A LOSS TO HILLSBORO

Messrs. Landt and Tracy More Away—Sample Wheat Threshings.

Special to The' Journal.i Hillsboro, N. , D., Aug. 31.—The organi-. zation of a new national bank at North-i wood in this state and a series of promo-! tions on the Great Northern railway willresult in the less to Hillsboro of two ofits most popular citizens. ; Teller A. B.Landt of the First-National bank of thiscity has resigned to become cashier of thenew Northwood institution, and Agent J.

I L. Tracy of the Great Northern has re-! ceived notice of his appointment to thei station at Grafton. Both are old-timers{ here, and have large circles of friends.; Their removal will greatly weaken the: reed section of the Hillsboro Metropolisj tan bank, of which they are members, andI which is considered one of the finest in| the state. \u25a0,

Work has been commenced on the new' city water tower, which ,is to take the1 place of the one that collapsed last win-

ter. / . 'Wheat'threshing'has advanced satisfac-

torily the past few days, but the ; fre-quent rains of late have very materiallydamaged the grade, "Which will in butfew cases be better " than - No. 2 \u25a0northern.

I The yield is very uneven, running all theway from twenty, bushels down to sevenor eight per 'acre. "The average is con-sidered nearer • tbe latter figure." The H., D., C. & S. Telephone companyhas Just completed a new extension southand west of here, including all the leading

I farms between this city, Kelso andBlanchard. *

IMPORT OIL &PIPE LINE CO.

v OF BEAUMONT.

Presldont - Hon. Charles A. TownsOf New York City and Beaumont, Texas.

Organized June 15, began drillingJuly IS,struck oil Aug. 10—a 70,000-barrel gusherin 02 days from the start.

Its business management has thus achievedthe first and only uncertain essential inestablishing an oil business in Texas —ing the oil.

The second essential Is storage reservoirsIn the field; the first of these, to hold 500,000barrels, Is now being constructed on Its ownlands at a cost of approximately $20,000, andwill speedily be followed by others. Thecompany has ample space on Its own landsclose to Spindle-Top Heights for several mil-lion-barrel reservoirs.

The third essential is pipe line; the right ofway for one to Port Arthur, and one to Sa-bine Pass, has already been secured, anlbids for these are now under consideration.At the lowest bid received. Port Arthur willcost about 1*"95,004>, Sabine Pass about

130,000.The fourth essential is steel storage tanks,

with loading racks at tidewater, with water

front. The extent of the Initial tankage herehas not been decided, but will probably be200,000 barrels, costing about #50.000.

As the fifth essential, tank steamers for itsexport trade are being negotiated for. Tobuy or build a line of steamers sufficient tohandle the product of the Export Oil andPipe Line Co. Involves a considerable Imme-diate use of funds, which are to be providedby the present issue of treasury stock.

Additional wells will also be drilled on thecompany's lands at a very early day.

It will be readily seen that the successfulestablishment of an oil business requiresheavy expenditures, but once the supply of oilis assured, the profits are far more than pro-portionately great. In fact, it becomes neces-sary to curtail the truth in stating the profitsof Texas gushers, for fear of exceeding belief.This company has preferred to be exceedinglyconservative In all its statements, knowingthat all the probabilities (which the successof its flrst undertaking has now proved cer-tainties) were far greater than its claims.

The Export Oil and Pipe Line Company, inIts original address to the public, made thesestatements:

"The officers and directors of the ExportOil and Pipe Line Co. are men of recognizedintegrity, commercial ability, and good busi-ness standing, who would not be connectedwith any enterprise in which they had notthe fullest confidence.

"After a careful and thorough survey of thefield they have organized this company, andnow offer it to Investors as a practical, feasi-ble proposition, one which they earnestly in-dorse and believe will yield ' handsome re-turns.

"Intending to deal frankly and honestlywith the public, they have nothing to conceal,stand ready to substantiate every claim theymake, and invite thorough investigation intothe company's holdings, its business methods,its condition and standing. They will directand manage the affairs of the company withthe same prudence exercised In the conductof their own business, and see that moneybrought into the treasury by the sale of stockis spent in honest development of the prop-erty and the interest of the company's share-holders, to whose inspection every transac-tion will be open."

The company's management has thus farmade good Its promises. What it has doneup to this time we believe it will continue todo in the future. Its statements are facts,its expectations have thus far been morethan realised; and we believe that invest-ors will find it true In this case, as in anyother business, that what a man has done iswhat he will continue doing. "Nothing suc-ceeds like success" is a trite saying; butnothing truer was ever set down.

It is often difficult to form at a distance acorrect Judgment of the merits of an invest-ment; but those on the ground have no suchdifficulty. Stock exchanges are necessarilyconservative, carefully investigating the con-dition of any corporation before listing itsstock; therefore, the following letter Is doublyindicative of the worth of this company:

BEAUMONT OIL EXCHANGE; and

BOARD OF TRADEincorporated.

SAM PARK, President.JOHN S. GOODHUE, Vice President.W. S. DAVIDSON, Treasurer.A. D. CHILDRESS, Secretary.

MESSRS. WALTER a. HUDSON CO.,Fiscal Agent* Export Oil <& Pipe Lin* Co.Boston, Mas*. 'y.*-.y

Gentlemen —From the number of inquiries we haveabout the standing and condition of oil companies andforother reasons, there is no doubt that it is to theinterest ofall good companies to be listed with this Ex-change. We art unable to give out any information ofabeneficial character, except about those companies whichhave passed the scrutiny of our Listing Committee, anaart regularly listed with us. Realizing the prominenceofyour company, and feeling that wecan be ofvaluableservice toyou in various ways, we especially desireyovrgood influence in the upholding and strengtheningofthis Exchange.Ibeg to hand you blank application for listing. a»a

request that you willfillout same promptly and returnto us, and same will be give-\ prompt attention.

Very trulyyours,{Signed) A. D. CHILDRESS,

Secretary.

In an editorial commenting on the Immensedividends paid by a number of railroad, oiland mining companies of this country, theAmerican Mining News of New York said inIts issue of Dec. 15, 1900: "It is the historyof most great and successful companies thatthe combination of the investments of themany has universally rendered possible. andcreated the profits of great enterprises." ,

In a nutshell, this Is the reason always foroffering the stock of a company at its start,because the funds thus secured enable farmore rapid progress and earlier realization ofreturns from its work.

The expenditures above referred to as es-sentials to the business of the Export Oil &Pipe Line Co., require the sale of an addi-tional issue of its treasury stock. We are,therefore, authorized to make a further offer-ing of the company's capital stock at par,

$1.60 Per Share.The Directors, however, reserving the right

to discontinue the sale of stock or advance theprice at any time without notice.

Contracts now made by the company andothers pending with local consumers will givethe company and immediate income sufficientto place it on a self-supporting basisfor the next few months, during the construc-tion of its pipe lines and tidewater tankage.A letter from President Towne states that heexpects the company to begin paying divi-dends early- in 11*02, and we believe thathis expectations in this matter, as in everystep hitherto, will be more than fulfilled._ We desire to repeat what we have here-tofore said in regard to this :company—we believe it is the best investmentbefore the public to-day. \u25a0':.-.;:\u25a0

QARATOGA OILW &PIPE LINE CO, %—IT IS NO LONGER a question of whether Texas oil is a good investment

the question is rather which of the several companies now offering theirstock for sale willgive you the most for your money? Vhis should not be hard to determine, ifyou will but stop to figure it

out Ask these questions of every company:Have You Land on Spindle Top 7

There are no gushers anywhere else so far, although there are goodsigns. lou want to buy a sure thing, so stick to Spindle top.Are You Drillinga Well 7

Find out whether this well is owned absolutely by the company whosestock you are buying, or is it a well owned in partnership with some othercompany. This makes a great deal of difference.What Is Your Company Capitalized For 7

If it is capitalized for $2,000,000, the stock is worth just half as muchas ifit were capitalized for $1,000,000.Is Your Stock Selling for Par or less 7

The lower stock is selling, the better a bargain it is. For instancestock selling at 30 cents per share, (par $1), on a capitalization of $1,000,000.L3*^^6 aß,Bsoc k selling for 15 cents per share if the capitalization were$4000,000; and it is five times as good as ifthe stock sold for 75 cents ncrsnare. ",It makes no difference whether par is 10c, 40c, $1.00 or 310 per share,the question is how nearly par are you paying for it? 'Ifyou pay 30c for Saratoga stock, of which the par value is $1.00 on acapitalization of $1,000,000, you are paying only about what would be'l3Wc

Pr«o^n°^ stock orlsc per share on $1-°° stock that is capitalizedat sP£,uoo,ooo,We will be glad to point out the advantages of Saratoga Oil &Pipe Line Company stock at 30 cents per share.We own two lots on Spindle Top, and have a well down sur-

rounded by gushers, depth at Saturday noon 810 feet. We arepractically able to guarantee a gusher and will talk to you onthis basis.

The Saratoga well should be in in less than a week. Ithasless than 200 feet to the oil pool now.

| Mrs. H. T. Morse, at. Excelsior, left Thurs-I day for his home at Lincoln. Mr. Morse's| departure was hastened by the fact thatjhe has just been placed -in charge of thedepartment of electrical engineering at thejUniversity of Nebraska, succeeding Pro-fessor Morgan Brooks. Professor Morseis the oldest son of H. T. Morse and agraduate of. the University of Minnesota,class of '93.

The concert at the Excelsior town hallgiven under the auspices of the board ofeducation was one of the most successfulevents of the season and the house wascrowded with an appreciative audiencewhich was not slow in showing its appre-ciation of the treat afforded. It was amatter of regret that Miss Plckthall onaccount of sickness was not able to bepresent: Jesse Shuman being unable to bepresent his place as violinist was taken byMr. Liddell, of Minneapolis, who is,prov-

• ing popular with Excelsior audiences.The selections by Mr. and Mrs. G. Sum-ner Couch and Mr. Liddell on piano, fluteand violin was well received and theywere forced to respond to repeated en-cores.

Enlargement of Distribution atNearly All Markets.

New York, Aug. Sl.—Bradstreet's says:A further improvement in corn crop

advices, confidence in the early endingof the steel strike, a further advance in cot-ton, due, however, to crop deterioration asmuch as to the better tone of dry goods tradeadvices, and. last but not least, the adventof cooler weather, are unitedly responsiblefor a still further enlargement of generaltrade distribution at nearly all markets and aperceptibly better and more cheerful tone ofbusiness generally. Especially good reportscome from such centers as Chicago.

The strength of cotton is the feature ofstaple prices this week, based originally uponpoor crop reports from the south and as-sisted by better reports from the dry goodstrade and higher prices paid for cotton goods.Print cloths are Vie higher, while the rawmaterial is %c higher on the week, %c higherthan two weeks ago and only lc lower than ayear ago. /

Wool is moving actively on good manufac-ture demand, but is no higher In price. De-mands from the woolen goods market con-tinue favorable.

Aside from the strength In textiles, thefeature In prices Is the lower range of cerealsand farm products generally. Wheat Is off alittle on liquidation, based on large receiptsat the northwest, smaller clearances and lessactive export demand. Corn Is lower on goodcrop reports, Inducing longs to unload. Othercereals improve and products are weaker onincreasing supplies. Ocean freights are onlyone-half to one-fifth what they were a yearago and the situation is much depressed.

The air of patient serenity, with which theiron and steel trades view the trade and ,strike situation is significant of the confidencegrowing that the end of the strike is in sight.Leaving out this matter, the trade is in goodshape and consumption is large.

Business failures for the week number 188, jagainst 181 last week, 165 In this week a yearago, 131 In 1899, 164 in 1898 and 198 In 1897.

iway later, gaining V_c for the week. The vealimarket is lc lower than on Monday last. Aneasier feeling developed under pressure ofheavy receipts and with some stock carriedover every day It was impossible to hold

Iup prices.| Potatoes made a marked decline and thismorning are again lower. It is the generaljbelief that the top prices have been seen and, some doubt is expressed as to whether the; present lower range will be maintained,or whether further decline may not be ex-pected. Tomatoes are also lower.

GREAT IS BEAUMONT.

"Fellow citizens of Texas, do you catch the full significance, the verybroad meaning of all this? There is something in it to make the heartof every friend of Texas hopeful. The eyes of the commercial world

* are on us now. There is not on earth, of the cities small or great, any citywith greater possibilities under or about it than Beaumont is able toboast of." Thus does the Galveston News enthusiastically comment on'a Providence (R. I.) Journal editorial on the future of Beaumont oil.The Journal gives the declaration conspicuous reproduction for tworeasons: First, it is true, and no paper is more competent to testify tothe fact than the Galveston News. Second, in its publication the Newsmanifests a feeling of kindness for Beaumont which means much forthe future of both this city and Galveston.

There is much in common between the Queen the of Neches and theIsland City, and recognition of the former's advantages and needs bythe latter willhave a tendency to draw them closer together, indus-trially, commercially and socially.

Stockholders will be interested andpleased at this Information.

We are now ready to talk a guaranteedwell to those doubting Thomases who have"thought" about buying repeatedly, buthave lacked the faith and nerve to In-vest. It may soon be too late for manyof them, because we will advance the priceof shares after the well is announced andthere will be no one to blame but them-selves. The Saratoga company's proposi-tion Is to-day the fairest and cheapestfor the investor made by any one. jThecompany is in good circumstances, has nodebts, owns its land on Spindle Top infee simple, and has valuable holdings intwenty-one other locations, including SourLake, Saratoga Springs and Big Hill; be-sides it has a gusher about ready to comein.

Take this suggestion: Send to-day for100 shares or more of Saratoga stock at30 cents per share. It is worth par to-day and will increase in value. Act atonce. Saratoga Oil and Pipe Line Co., 728Andrus Building, Minneapolis, y

In an editorial commenting on the Immensedividends paid by a number of railroad, oiland mining companies of this country, theAmerican Mining News of New York said inits issue of Dec. 15, 1900: "It is the historyof most great and successful companies thatthe combination of the investments of themany has universally rendered possible . andcreated the profits of great enterprises."

In a nutshell, this is the reason always toroffering the stock of a company at its start,because the funds thus secured enable farmore rapid progress and earlier realization ofreturns from its work.

The expenditures above referred to as es-sentials to the business of the Export Oil &Pipe Line Co., require the sale of an addi-tional issue of its treasury stock. We are,therefore, authorized to make a further offer-ing of the company's capital stock at par,

$1.60 Per Share.The Directors, however, reserving the right

to discontinue the sale of stock or advance theprice at any time without notice.

Contracts now made by the company andothers pending with local consumers will givethe company and immediate income sufficientto place it on a self-supporting basisfor the next few months, during the construc-tion of its pipe lines and tidewater tankage.A letter from President Towne states that heexpects the company to begin paying divi-dends early in 1902, and we believe thathis expectations in this matter, as In everystep hitherto, will be more than fulfilled.

We desire to repeat what we have here-tofore said in regard to this company—we believe it is the best Investment

;before the public to-day. .••,-';Subscriptions may be sent either to the

company at Beaumont, Texas, or to its fiscalagents, as below, with check or draft pay-able to the order of

Of New YorkCity and Beaumont, Texas.

Organized June 15, began drillingJuly 15,struck oil Aug. IG—a 70,000-barrel pusherin 03 days from the start.

Its business management has thus achievedthe first and only uncertain essential inestablishing an oil business in Texas—secur-ing the oil. ?y"»'.-'

The second essential is storage reservoirs. In the field; the first of these, to hold 500,000

barrels, is now being constructed on its ownlands at a cost of approximately $20,000, andwill speedily be followed by others. Thecompany has ample space on its own landsclose to Spindle-Top Heights tor several mil-lion-barrel reservoirs.

The third essential is pipe line; the rightofway for one to Port Arthur, and one to Sa-bine Pass, has already been secured, andbids for these are now under consideration.At the lowest bid received. Port Arthur willcost about l*"95,000, Sabine Pass about$136,000.

The fourth essential is steel storage tanks,with loading racks at tidewater, with waterfront. The extent of the Initial tankage herehas not been decided, but will probably be300,000 barrels, costing about ?50,000.

As the fifth essential, tank steamers for itsexport trade are being negotiated for. Tobuy or build a line of steamers sufficient tohandle the product of the Export Oil andPipe Line Co. involves a considerable imme-diate use of funds, which are to be providedby the present issue of treasury stock.

Additional wells will also be drilled on thecompany's lands at a very early day.

It will be readily seen that the successfulestablishment of an oil business requiresheavy expenditures, but once the supply of oilis assured, the profits are far more than pro-portionately great. In fact. Itbecomes neces-sary to curtail the truth in stating the profitsof Texas gushers, for fear of exceeding belief.This company has preferred to be exceedinglyconservative in all its statements, knowingthat all the probabilities (which the successof its first undertaking has now proved cer-tainties) -were far greater than its claims.

The Export Oil and Pipe Line Company, inIts original address to the public, made thesestatements:

"The officers and directors of the ExportOil and Pipe Line Co. are men of recognizedintegrity, commercial ability, and good busi-ness standing, who would not be connectedwith any enterprise in which they had notthe fullest confidence.

"After a careful and thorough survey of thefield they have organized this company, andnow offer It to investors as a practical, feasi-ble proposition, one which they earnestly in-dorse and believe will yield' handsome re-

turns."Intending to deal frankly and honestly

with the public, they have nothing to conceal,; stand ready to substantiate every claim they

make, and Invite thorough Investigation intothe company's holdings, its business methods,its condition and standing. They will directand manage the affairs of the company withthe same prudence exercised in the conductof their own business, and see that moneybrought Into the treasury by the sale of stockis spent in honest development of the prop-erty and the interest of the company's share-holders, to whose inspection every transac-tion will be open."

The company's management has thus far, made good its promises. What it has doneup to this time we believe it will continue to.do in the future. Its statements are facts,

its expectations have thus far been more. than realised; and we believe that Invest-ors will find It true in this case, as in anyother business, that what a man has done iswhat he will continue doing. "Nothing sue-" ceeds like success" is a trite saying; butnothing truer was eve? set down.

Tar,.IT IS NO LONGER a question of whether Texas oil is a good investmentthe question is rather which of the several companies now offering their. stock for Bale will give you the most for your money? . V

1 his should not be hard to determine, if you will but stop to figure itout Ask these questions of every company:Have You Land on Spindle Top 7

There are no gushers anywhere else so far, although there are goodsigns. lou want to buy a sure thing, so stick to Spindle top.Are You Drillinga Well 7

Find out whether this well is owned absolutely by the company whosestock you are buying, or is it a wellowned in partnership with some othercompany. This makes a great deal of difference.What Is Your Company Capitalized For 7

Ifit is capitalized for $2,000,000, the stock is worth just half as muchas if it were capitalized for $1,000,000.Is Your Stock Selling for Par or Less 7

The lower stock is selling, the better a bargain it is. For Instance,stock selling at 30 cents per share, (par $1), on a capitalization of $1,000,000,'siS^ e »8 stock selling for 15 cents per share if the capitalization were$2,000,000; and it is five times as good as if the stock sold for 75 cents persnare. "

Itmakes no difference whether par is 10c, 40c, $1.00 or $10 per share,the question is how nearly par are you paying for it? •

Ifyou pay 30c for Saratoga stock, of which the par value is $1.00, on acapitalization of $1,000,000, you are paying only about what would be 13^c£?£o™£&?s?}?£*'? vixBhare on %L 0Btock that is capitalizedat «3>&,u0u,000. "m'~-:.'_ We will be glad to point out the advantages of Saratoga Oil &Pipe Line Company stock at 30 cents per share.

We own two lots on Spindle Top, and have a well down sur-rounded by gushers, depth at Saturday noon 810 feet. We arepractically able to guarantee a gusher and will talk to you onthis basis.

The Saratoga well should be in in less than a week. It hasless than 200 feet to the oil pool now.

A WEEK IN TRADE

GENERAL PRODUCEThe Minneapolis Market.

. Saturday, Aug. 31.

Line, C, M. A St.. Pan! Ry.

THE MINNEAPOLIS JOUBNAL.

Enlargement of Distribution atNearly All Markets.

New York, Aug. 31.—Bradstreet's says:A further improvement in corn ' crop

advices, confidence in the early endingof the steel strike, a further advance in cot- \u25a0

ton, due, however, to crop deterioration asmuch as to the better tone of dry goods tradeadvices, and. last but not least, the adventof cooler weather, are unitedly responsiblefor a still further enlargement of generaltrade distribution at nearly all markets and aperceptibly better and more cheerful tone ofbusiness generally. Especially good reportscome from such centers as Chicago.

The strength of cotton is the feature ofstaple prices this week, based originally uponpoor crop reports from the south and as-sisted by better reports from the dry goodstrade and higher prices paid for cotton goods.Print cloths are He higher, while the rawmaterial is %c higher on the week, %c higherthan two weeks ago and only lc lower than ayear ago.

Wool is moving actively on good manufac-ture demand, but Is no higher in price. De-mands from the woolen goods market con-tinue favorable. •\u25a0>.yy

Aside from the strength in textiles, thefeature in prices is the lower range of cerealsand farm products generally. Wheat Is off alittle on liquidation, based on large receiptsat the northwest, smaller clearances and lessactive export demand. Corn is lower on goodcrop reports, inducing longs to unload. Othercereals Improve and products are weaker onIncreasing supplies. Ocean freights are onlyone-half to one-fifth what they were a yearago and the situation is much depressed.

The air of patient serenity, with which theIron and steel trades view the trade andstrike situation is significant of the confidencegrowing that the end of the strike is in Bight.Leaving out this matter, the trade Is in goodshape and consumption is large.

Business failures for the week number 18.,against 181 last week, 165 in this week a yearago, 131 in 1899, 164 in 1898 and 198 in 1897.

The past week has teen of quiet steadi-ness In the leading produce lines. The but-ter market at the close shows a slightlyTowerrange and easier feeling, yet quotations areonly about Vie below the opening of theweek. In eggs, the past few days havebrought. out a show of firmness, and while themarket shows only a small fractional -gaindemand has improved and the outlook is goodfor continued steadiness from now on. '* \u25a0

Poultry has not varied much. Springchickens firmed up early but eased off partway later, gaining }_c for the week. Tbe vealmarket is lc lower than on Monday last. Aneasier feeling developed under -pressure ofheavy receipts and with some stock carriedover every day it was impossible to holdup prices. ...- Potatoes made a marked decline and thismorning are again lower. It is the generalbelief that the top prices have been seen andsome doubt is expressed as to whether thepresent lower range will be maintained,or whether further decline may not be ex-pected. Tomatoes are also lower.The fruit market broke early awing to In-creased receipts of Oaliforma stock. Priceshave ruled firm but considerably under theprevious week.

Professor George H. Morse, of Lincoln,Neb., who with his family has been spend-ing the summer with his parents, Mr. andMrs. H. T. Morse, at Excelsior, left Thurs-day for his home at Lincoln.

Sum-ner Couch and Mr. Liddell o*n piano, fluteand violin was well received and theywere forced to respond to repeated en- jcores. The saxophone and trombone se- 'lections by W. J. Tomkins were something 1new, Mr. Tompkins proving himself an Iartist. Little Miss Winnie Green came |In for a large share of applause with herrecitations and songs. Henry Dellafield imade a hit with his popular music. W. J. iTomkins brought down the house with his |selections of stories In which many local jhits were made.

THE OJIBWAYS PLAY"HIAWATHA"AGAIN

The Ancient Legend, Celebrated in Poetry byLongfellow, Is Enacted by Indian Playersat Desbarats, Ont., for the Second Time—An Annual Affair Now.

As the evening sun cast. a glow overland and water, 500 people stood on therocky slope of Kensington Point, nearDesbarats, Ont., and strained their eyesto follow an Indian as with uplifted handshe 'floated in a bark canoe out over thestill waters of Lake Huron. Down onthe shore crowded a group of Indiansstretching out their arms in an endeavorto reach across the ever-widening dis-tance and their mournful wail was fullof longing.

And they said, "Farewell forever 1"Said, "Farewell, O Hiawatha!"

It was the closing scene in the annualpresentation of the Ojlbway play of "Hia-watha." A more dramatic climax couldnot be imagined. The sorrow and despairIn . the Indian chant dominated everythought and every eye was fastened onthe canoe, moving by some invisible force,until It was lost in the golden glory of thesetting Eun.

The i audience was a most democraticone and nearly every state was repre-sented. Prominent business men . fromChicago and Detroit shared shady spotswith Canadian half-breeds; women insmart duck suits sat on the same bencheswith blanketed squaws. The bishop ofAlgoma |in the conventional dress of abishop of the English church, shovel hat,wldeskirted coat, knickerbockers andgaitors talked to an old chief whose warbonnet ran from his head to his heels.Summer. visitors from the islands whichdot Lake Huron and residents from thesmall towns along the Canadian Pacificrailroad stopped to chat with the Indianmen and maidens or to admire the pap-poose swinging in the basswood cradle.

This is the second year that the playhas. been presented by the OJlbways andtwo performances were given, Friday andSaturday afternoons, Aug. 23 and 24. Sat-urday morning and evening were devotedto Indian sports and there were canoeand boat races, swimming races and otherwater games, which the Indians won easily,from the white men. Interesting as theseIndian sports were, it was the play thathad attracted so many strangers to thisunfrequented corner of Canada.

The play was :first given last . year inhonor of the visit of Miss Alice Longfellow,the daughter of the poet, who came at theInvitation of the *Indians. to the scene ofthe Hiawatha legends. As :an entertain-ment for their distinguished: guests theIndians planned to present. a series oftableaux from' "Hiawatha"' and : from this

first thought the pretentious drama, whichshould become the American equivalent ofthe Passion play at Oberammergau, hasgrown; In putting the play into shape theIndians were assisted by L. O. Armstrong,colonization agent for the Canadian Pacificrailroad, and Francis West, a Boston art-ist. The Indians pitched their tents onKensington Point and Mr. West lived withthem for five weeks, directing the rehear-sals. He made a careful study of the In-dians before .assigning the parts and sowell was this done that no make-up isused in dressing the ; characters. '. » .'..

No attempt was . made : last summer tointerest outside people and the audienceconsisted of Miss Longfellow and herfriends from Boston and a small group ofthe summer \u25a0 residents from the near byislands. The presentation was such a suc-cess that the suggestion that it should bemade an annual affair met with enthusias-tic approval.

Not a Midway Show.Early this year the Indians were in-

vited to take the play to Buffalo, but Mr.Armstrong strongly objected. He did notwant it to sink to the. level of a Midwayamusement, and ' with the Indians Mr.Armstrong's word is law. Circumstanceswere such that it was not deemed advisa-ble to present the play this year and itwas, not until the middle of the monththat the Indians planned to repeat it.That Is why there were only 500 people onKensington Point, for no advertising wasdone and those present heard of it inroundabout ways.

The actors are members of a small Ojib-way tribe which has its home near Gardenriver. They come to Kensington Pointevery summer. to hold an annual fair dur-ing the blueberry season. The majority ofthem speak English and speak it well.The men are farmers, fishermen, huntersand guides, according to the season. Lifeis . not a complex affair on Garden riverand.the Indians spend the winter in pre-paration fori.the • fair, making bowls ofbasewood, bows and arrows, belts of barkand buckskin embroidered with porcupinequills and a certain rude pottery from thered clay. _Stpß_f9B_B

: The Minneapolis public schools havegiven the white boys and birls a thor-ough . knowledge ;of Longfellow's beauti-ful \ poem, but : the ' Indian children havelearned tIt\ in a. different way. They haveheard ' the legends all their -life, not asstories but as actual occurrences In whose

verity they thoroughly believe. Until ayear ago few of them had heard Long-fellow's poem, and Minnehaha shyly con-fessed this summer that she had not readit all yet.

The actors so sunk their identity inthe characters of the play that the slopeoften resounded with cries for Hiawatha'scanoe, for Minnehaha to find a certainbelt or for Nokomis to look after thepappoose. There was no difficulty in rec-ognizing the different characters. Eachhad his Individuality. I

"What do you know of Hiawatha?" wasasked of a mite of a chief whose smallshirt and leggings were as elaboratelyfringed as were those of the men. '.'\u25a0'. "

The child sucked his thumb and lookedout over the lake where he obtained in-spiration to lisp: "Hiawatha was a greatchief."

"We don't act; we live the legends ofour people," explained George Kabaoosa,who takes the part of Hiawatha withcourtly grace. He is the hereditary chiefof the tribe and carried the invitation toBoston to Miss Longfellow.

Rebecca Kabaoosa, the chiefs daughter,is a graceful Minnehaha, and she fulfillsLongfellow's description, for she waitedon several hundred people and cooked in-numerable mutton chops at the luncheonwhich the Indians served before the play.She is a pretty girl with a round face,crowned with dusky hair that falls intwo plaits over her white deer skins.

Old Nokoanls is a princess in her ownright, and her bearing Is truly royal.When strangers are presented to thetribe, she is always introduced after thechief. Her good-natured face beamedwith hospitality as she hurried to andfro before the play. The Indians mingledfreely with the strangers, and they werenot as taciturn as are our northern Min-nesota red men. Those .who could speakEnglish were only too ready to converse,while those whose tongues halted, huntedup some one who could interpret for them.Everybody wanted to secure .' the auto-graph of each player on his play book,and picture writing was preferred toscript. Wt&tk-

William Kabaoosa, who played lagoo,the storyteller, was surrounded by a groupwho wanted to see his medal of George111. and the testimonial in rhyme signedby Miss Longfellow. . *

Few changes were made in the per-formance this year. The transformationof Pau-Puk-Keewis into a beaver whenthe Mischief Maker insulted Hiawatha,and his return to his human form in re-sponse to the prayer of the hero was, thenew feature and ' was : cleverly arranged.A Penobscot Indian answered to the callof Gitchie Manitou to the chiefs -of theeast and west, north and south and gavea Mic-onac dance.

The stage,. a rude platform, was builtaround a tall pine tree on the shore andon either side and straggling up the hillwere the bark tepees, just as they wereused for the camp. To the right, at somelittle distance was the wigwam. of theArrow Maker and to the left that ofNokomis. In front was the lake dottedwith rocky islands and in the rear was thehill, a natural amphitheater..

Mr. Armstrong as Chorus.During the play Mr. Armstrong actedthe part of the Greek chorus and ex-plained the scenes through a megaphone.

The play is given in the Ojibway tongueand,- though the acting is so perfect thatan understanding of the language is un-necessary, | the • megaphone | was an assist-ance to those of little imagination.

Desbarats is a small town, which willsome day be larger, 1 on the Canadian Pa-cific railroad, and visitors are droppedat a strange "little station by the throughtrain. The method of reaching Kensing-ton Point is quite as primitive as the ar-rangements for the play.

Thrilling RescueOn the Great Lakes

. \u25a0;..,.\u25a0. .;. \u0084r.,'.. \u25a0 . . .-...-';Correspondence of The Journal. \u25a0

• Port Arthur, Ontario, Can., Aug. 30.—Seldom if ever* has so thrilling-a:-scenebeen ' enacted upon the great lakes asthat which marked the rescue of the. crewfrom the ship Preston in the midst ofone of the .worst storms which has sweptover Lake Superior in recent ; years. Ipresume -the mere statement of the res-cue of the crew has already *been noted \in The Journal, but, so far as Iknow,? no American newspaper. has con-tained any - adequate account of one ofthe most heroic rescues ever recorded.

It.was three in the morning and thecrew of-the ship Preston of Toledo, lum-ber laden, bound for Port Arthur, fromManistee, Mich., discovered In the midstof a heavy sea that the ship had sprunga leak and the water was rapidly seekingthe fires and the coal bunkers. The boatwas heavily laden and was making slowheadway in the midst of the tremendoussea that was' running. 8

All efforts to stay,the flood were unavailing, and it soon be-came apparent that the ship must beabandoned if she could not find a tow.She was then' In the middle of ! the laketo the east of Isle Royal.

The storm Increased and at last whenthe fires were out and the waves werewashing over her decks, a signal of dis-tress .was"hoisted. At six in the morn-ing,. Captain McDougall of the steamerAthabasca sighted the distressed, boat offPassage Island. Comparatively few boats,as ' regards the through traffic fromDuluth to ' Buffalo, pass to the. north,and, had '.not .Captain . McDougall .-sighted the ship, she might easily havegone days without help, or what was farmo^e likely in such a storm, be driven inshore and stove to pieces on the rocks.

He came alongside the boat but the seawas so heavy he could not bring the two |together so that the crew of the Prestoncould be brought on board. Five or sixtimes he got a line to the ship to tow herbut. every, time, so heavy was the sea,the hawser parted. .•'-.

Finally he decided that the only way tosave their lives was to ram the side ofthe wooden boat with his big steel prow.Drawing off in the sea, he went at aslanting angle upon the derelict, strikingher a slanting blow with the hope of fix-ing _ the nose of his ship long enough inher side to. enable him to haul on boardthe crew. One or two did get on, but thewaves instantly parted the ships. Againhe tried - the same tactics from anotherangle.saving one or two-more. Time aftertime '"he' did this and all the time he wastaking risks for his own ship, laden withcargo and passengers.": But, once upon a time, Captain GeorgeMcDougall was sailing a small freighterhimself, was wrecked, and the captain

another 'craft stood;by in a storm andsaved '• the lives of himself and crew, andthe years had not blunted his memory. ."

Once, ,as the \ big ship swung around, oneof the crew, the wheelman, WilliamEckert of ;\u25a0 Algonac, Mich., attempted tojboard "*., the Athabasca Jatj an unfortunate

i 'moment, and" as £ the two Iboats came ' to-"

gether by the tremendous power of thesea, those who were on deck saw half ofthe poor'wheelman go one way and halfthe other. The coming together had cuthim squarely In two. -".'-.-: 'Vy*—'^'y

One by one, as the hours went by, thecrew was brought .away until but a fewwere left. Two women were on board,but they utterly refused to Jump for thedeck. of the Athabasca as she would swingup to the side; The men coaxed andthreatened and pleaded, . but - they wouldnot take what to them seemed a Tisk withdeath for the prize. •iy'Cy- ''-•\u25a0'"*

So, at last, the men seized the women,put lines around their bodies, tied on lifepreservers and threw them over the sidesof, the vessel into the sea. It was heroictreatment and might easily have been thedeath of both, but it was sure death toleave them. By great good fortune theywere hauled aboard " the Athabasca Insafety. On the. Athabasca were two phy-sicians. One of them was on his weddingtour and his wife was the only womanon board the ship, who was not overcomeby sea sickness. He told later withgreat pride of the help his new wife wasto him \in caring for the \u25a0 women. Inorder to get them quickly into a warmbed it was necessary to take a sharpknife and cut the shoes from their feet,so water soaked were their shoes andso swollen their limbs from the long ex-posure. :

It took nearly ten hours for the Atha-basca to effect the rescue of the. crew.

One of Captain Harlow's jets was abright little Scotch terrier and '•anotherwas a canary bird. He tried hard to holdthe dog in his arms as he left the ship,but he.did not dare to make the leapwithout both hands free, so he left the lit-tle friend on board. | Away the big steam-er went in the late afternoon, leaving thedog and the canary sole occupants of theabandoned derelict, fast beating up to-ward the rock-bound, treacherous northshore. But truth came in again, but toprove that it is stranger than fiction, andtwo or three days later when a tug mas-ter at Port Caldwell, a fishing point on thenorth shore, saw the derelict in the offingand steamed out with a thrifty eye tofuture salvage and got a line to her, hefound both dog and canary alive and fullready for a square meal.

Strangely enough, the fact that theywere alive may have a distinct bearingon a suit now in progress. The cap-tain of the Preston put out for Port Ar-thur on the tug Inez as soon as possiblein search of his ship. He found her afew hours after, the Port Caldwell mandid, though the latter- had already got-ten a line on her, establishing priority ofoccuDa.tlon.-^fftAa^K^fessep^!^^^)iill^

But the claim of the Port Caldwell man,so ;it seems, is to be contested on theground that, there: being life.on the ship/and life which could not under such cir-cumstances ( maintain ? itself, was -• • proofthat ; the ship was . capable of*• sustaininglife and, therefore, was not•in the strictsense an abandoned derelict subject toseizure and. salvage. :'.';': yy'\u25a0'' *.'\u25a0_,>, "

. The Port Caldwell tug master : securedpaeas. for the seizure of the ship as a

y

derelict though the admiralty court at To-ronto. The outfit was then towed toPort Arthur where the lumber which wasto have been used in the construction ofthe new elevator of the Canadian North-ern road at this place was unloaded.Next came a wrecking crew from Duluth—the Preston being an American ship—tolighter the vessel and tow her to Duluth.According to the laws, however, no Amer-ican crew has the right to do such serv-ice in Canadian waters but though therewas a heavy penalty for failure to' carryout various provisions of the law, the finewas remitted and the American crew per-mitted to go on with its work.

It would be a fitting.thing if the gov-ernment of the United States should unitewith the Dominion of Canada in a testi-monial to Captain George McDougall ofthe steamship Athabasca for one of themost heroic international episodes In ' thehistory of the great lakes. It.Is under-stood that the Dominion' government hasalready taken steps to recognise officiallyon its own account what Captain Mc-Dougall has done.

LITERARY CIRCUSModern Authors Must Furnish Their

Own *'Pa_>er."

Puck.Washington Irving Smith has ceased

writing any more novels. He Is, dis-gusted with what he terms the circusingof his profession. His efforts have alwaysbeen confined to the one-a-day factories,but for the sake of appearances he '; hashaunted the swagger publishing houses onFifth avenue. He has just finished read-ing "Pumpkin Adams' Nausea" and "EdamHold-em-up," two of the record-breakingbooks of the Squash school, and concludedthat he could outsquash anything theycontained. He felt sure that' Scribblerswould accept without demur his latestmanuscript, "Abner Applejack, the Heroof Wynockle, N. J."

When he called upon the reader of thegreat publishing house he was referred tothe business offlce. ; '."i"';

"What printing have you got he wasasked.'

•'None," replied Smith, In. surprise."Well, you know that. unless you. have

at least $5,000 worth of paper we can donothing with your book," explained thomanager. The title is just what youwant, but you must have plenty of ad-vertising matter, including good . half-sheet and three-sheet posters. You mustsupply us with your own lithograph, show-ing yourself in a thoughtful mood, as thegreat author of the domestic story of'Abner Applejack," etc., the true type ofnative American, and all that sort ofthing. If you do this and engage a first-class press agent, we may be able to pushyou up to the hundred-thousandth mark,make it a dollar-and-a-half book and thesuccess of the year," >\u0084'\u25a0' -And Washington Irving Smith Is stillgrinding out seaside stories for the cropof 1902 in the Jumbo foundry, under theshadow of the Brooklyn bridge.

SUPPLEMENT TO THE MINNEAPOLIS JOURNAL

Minneapolis, Minn.., Sen t.u rd©l y, August 31, 1901.

With a - SmileAmusing Incidents ofVacation, in "Which

Minneapolis Juniors "Were Frequently- the Victims. * r* * # # #

SHEJuniors are evidently making the most of the

last days of their vacation. Such is the conclusiondrawn from the number of papers which werehanded in this week, jfor the papers have grad-ually dwindled away all through August. The pa-"pers speak eloquently of good times, and althoughsome ended in mishaps, they seem to have beenheartily enjoyed. Sometimes a sudden duckingwas cause for merriment, but generally the oneducked did not regard his accident in that light.

Tricks and characteristics of animals were foundto be amusing and perhaps some of the Juniorswill in this way be encouraged to observe naturemore closely.

The papers this week were well written, but more were re-jected than at any other time during the summer because theywere not held to the topic. As an instance, several accounts offright and one description of a hot day were sent in as amus-ing incidents. They were told well and might have served asIllustrations of a summer vacation in- -cident but they were in no sense funny.Several incidents were described asamusing to the participiants, but werewithout point to one not an observerof the scene. If they had been treatedwith a little more spice and* orig-inality, they would have been muchmore effective.

Culver Ellison and Arthur Nelsonwill please notify the editor whatprizes they prefer.

PRIDE AND A FALL

Expert Now in the HospitalRecovering.

(Prize.) _,THERE is a young man in this city,

who, for several reasons, will nottry to make a quick turn on wet as-phalt for some time. One of the rea-sons is that he is now in the hospitaland will probably remain there for aconsiderable interval. This young manwas riding gaily up the avenue, and,to show his skill ;in bicycling, at-tempted to make a sharp turn withoutusing his handlebars. The subsequentevents are worth recording. First, thetires began to slip with an ominous"'schlur-r-r," rising rapidly in tone andending in the clang of metal as theWheel struck the pavement.

The young man departed hurriedlyin another direction. He should havechosen a better place to light in andhave gotten off his wheel more slowly,but probably he did not have muchtime to think. After alighting he slidaimlessly along the pavement for a fewfeet and gathered much mud. Then hecame into contact with an obstruction,whereupon he revolved with such ex-ceeding swiftness that his hands andfeet flew up into the air, giving the im-pression of a rolling horse. This evo-lution distributed the mud somewhatmore equally than before. Then hebegan to roll, and his feet beingheavier than his head, his head wentthe faster and described sundry curvestill the propelling force gave out 'andhe stopped. The youth's remarks forthe next five minutes contained a rapid

, summary and an examination and an' opinion on the present condition of the

street commission, together with shrewd guesses concerning itsend and wishes that the same might be speedily accomplished.The humorous side of his mishap never seemed to strike theyoung man, and I have often wandered why.

PLAY TIME OF THE PET GOPHER

Likewise a Time of Trouble and Violent Exercisefor the Girls.

ry : , (Prise.) . :CARLY this vacation I caught a young gopher, which I tried*-> to tame. It took many an hour to do this, but at last I suc-ceeded. I could make that little thing walk on his hind legs, '"•and when I held out my hand he would run up my arm. ''": One night my cousin came to visit us and I showed her thegopher. She held out her hand and he ran right up her arm,across her shoulder, down her other arm, and jumped to thefloor. Then is when the fun began. The girls jumped on chairsand hid behind the doors, but he found those behind the doors; \then they jumped on chairs, where other girls were, and all felloff. The gopher, seeing his chance, ran under them and theybegan to scream so that I believe they would have been

scared to death if I had not caught him and put him in his cage.And all the while I was sitting in the corner, laughing at them.

*X VAt An Experience Meeting. .

':J (Fifth and Sixth Grade Prize.) *. ;'.XXIE have all heard the, old proverb, "It never rains but it -pours." .I- believe I could venture to say that it has notmerely rained amusing incidents, but has actually poured them.

The courthouse bells were chiming the hour of S, while up thestreet came the Salvation Army, headed by their captain. Theservice was opened and it seemed to me that this was an ex-perience meeting. One man stepped upon the pavement and gavean outline of his life from beginning to end; how he had beenin the gutter and was saved by the Salvation Army. Anothertold how he had drank and had left his wife and little ones andthe Salvation Army had saved him.

Hallelujah, thine the glory! - ,Hallelujah, amen!

Hallelujah, thine the glory,Revive us again," •

Was started by one of the soldiers. Each person had some epi-sode in his life which he told. Silence reigned for several min-utes when at last it was broken by an old man stepping forward.He was not a soldier. His long beard was white as snow andhe wore a gray cap on his head. With feeble step he came,stopped and made a very profound bow. "Ladies and gentlemen,boys and girls,, pardon this interruption. Have you seen mylittle black dog?" he said. .

I *.THE TWO ON THE OUTSIDE

Crafty Device of Two Culprits to Avoid MeritedPunishment.

(Fifth and Sixth Grade Prize.)

ONE morning two boys and myself were playing marbles onthe" road near the schoolhouse, when suddenly two horse-

men rode upon us. We jumped to one side of the road, but one 1rider, not satisfied with the road, started after us. We crawledunder the fence and then threw sticks at him, and one of my

"sticks hit him on the back. This made him angry, and hewent to the schoolhouse and told our teacher all about It.

That .evening we were called into the writing-room and 'j asked which one of us wanted our whipping first Not one of

us spoke so the teacher moved the writing table into the centerof the room. Then he told us to lie on the table close together.1 happened to.be in the center and while the stick was comingdown my two companions rolled off on each side and I felt theclub alone. : This made the teacher laugh and he let us go. Onour way home. the two boys laughed, but I did not, for the blowwas meant for three, and I alone suffered.

schoolroom; one would have settled the difficult question in aminute, two could have been managed, but three—alas, that wastoo much. So Miss Jones kept all three after school, Just becauseof one little note signed "Emma," which she had found on thefloor. Her anger was aroused when she found that we had dis-obeyed her stern orders about writing notes and woe be to theUnfortunate culprit Yet who was the offender? «

All three Emmas were innocent, at least they seemed to be.lAfter one hour's . fruitless .questioning, the teacher allowed one•Emma to go home, for she had always been very good and seemedabove such an offense. So there were two left.

I had not written that bothersome note, and I told theteacher so; but the other Emma also said that she was innocent.fThe puzzled teacher looked . from one to another as if to read%he answers in our faces. Such woeful, distressed faces as theyWere. With a laugh she let the whole matter pass. I, however,"was not satisfied, for I would not have a shadow of guilt hang

• lover me, so I proved my Innocence to Miss Jones. To this day,however, I have never found out who wrote that note.

\u0084 Suddenly I saw the largest boy In the room whisper and Icalled out in my. severest tone, "John, bring me your book." Thatjwas the way my teacher usually punished us.

I was just about as 'much surprised as she was, for I hadbeen studying hard and had not noticed her leave her desk. Thepupils all laughed and the teacher did, too, but you may be sureI felt pretty cheap. But air she said was: "I'll put it in thebasket for you." I felt that I was let off very cheaply, as I hadto miss only one recess.

At first I won-dered what I had done—then it flashed across my mind that Iwas using the eraser, which our teacher had so emphaticallyforbidden only ten minutes before. My forgetfulness had put meinto such a scrape! I guiltily made my way to the hall, thenceto the office, which was to the left of our room. "Now, what shallI say?" I thought. "I used a 'raser aal^-" but I surveyed anempty room and, sinking on the bench, I heaved a sigh of relief.I had plenty of time to arrange my explanation, so I could some-what abate my embarrassment, and hear my fate with com-posure, for I was a new pupil in the school.

"Sweet Bells Jangled.**

. It was at the end of the algebra hour one day last springthat I found myself In trouble. And this was how it came about:I went to the piano, intending to play for the classes to pass. Ilooked for my music on the piano, expecting to find it there, asI always had before. But that day it seemed as .If everybody'smusic but mine appeared. All the pupils were waiting for thesound of the piano, as the signal for them to pass to their seats.And still .no music came. \u25a0 There need ; not have been all thisconfusion had I been able jjto play one of my pieces frommemory. Iknew snatches of pieces I had played a great deal, soI sat down and tried to play something. But Ihad become ratherexcited, so much so that I scarce could make my fingers move.The classes had by this time passed, and as It was time forrecess I did not play again that day.

After that until I had thoroughly memorized one of mypieces, I always had my music with me when Itwas time to play.And, by the way, I found my lost music afterward behind thepiano. I have made it a rale since that "scrape" always to mem-orize some piece for just such an emergency.

• A Fatal Curiosity.

One of my greatest faults in school, ever since I began goingto school, has been to stare at my neighbors Instead of study-ing my lessons. One day I had been unusually restless, I sup-pose, or. my . teacher was unusually watchful; so, after I badturned around several times to watch the one sitting behind memy teacher came down the aisle, stopped at my desk and said:"I think you would better have A face on your, back, too, so you-can see both ways," and she pinned . a paper face on my back.This I had to wear all the rest of the afternoon.

*Haste That "Wasted.. At school last winter my chum and I had the habit of read-

ing each other's Journal Junior essays. As a rule we wrote thembefore noon and handed them in to teacher in the afternoon andthat gave us a chance to exchange papers at noon. But one daythe teacher was In a- hurry and she asked us to hand them inbefore we went home at noon. This spoiled our exchanging, butexchange we must. I was the first to get my essay written, so ;making use of a rule our teacher had given us that we could* 'go to another's desk with a book or ask about the lesson, I steppedto my chum's desk and gave it to her, telling her something at thesame time. She smiled and teacher noticed it. "What did you sayto her that made her smile just then?" she said. -"Nothing,"was my reply. "What did you give her?" rather impatiently. "Apiece of paper," I replied, not daring to tell the exact truth beforefifty pairs of ears. "Well, we will see after school Is out to-night" How I dreaded staying after school, for I was quite cer-tain that I would be reported to the professor. When teachercalled for our essays my friend threw mine back in a hurry, butthere was but one sheet of my essay, the,other two were old his-tory papers. I had to hand in the one sheet and I expected to

get an addition to my punishment What was my surpriseand delight when after waiting for nearly an hour afterschool teacher said I could go, tut that she would*/lower my mark in deportment for that month.

had gone wrong and my mother said: "Trouble in the air;how long will it last?" When I reached school I had noribbon on my hair and my skirt was on wrong side out.Oh, dear, how I did feel! And I knew if I changed it Iwould have bad luck.; That noon I went home for dinner.I took an onion back*to school with me and when thebell rang pinned a piece of paper to the onion containingthe words, "Pass it on." Very soon the room was filledwith the odor of onions. .The teacher noticed it andasked who had brought it. I did not raise my hand, butevery eye was turned on me. Iknew then that there was

"trouble in the air." I was told to eat that onion. Oh, but howI hate them! I began to eat very small bits at first and thenthe tears began to flow freely from the odor. I managed to eatIt, but I could have stood any punishment better than being com-pelled to eat that onion. I have never taken one to school since,and I never intend to. -»•'- - Dora Eva Markle, *

It wasabout six or seven years ago, on one \u25a0 of those beautiful Maydays, when the sun shines brightly, when birds try to excel eachother in song and when the spring flowers are in all their gor-geous bloom. The schoolroom was dull and dreary and books nolonger had any attractions for us. On an afternoon such asthis four friends and myself decided to have some fun. So webegan to write notes to each other. This enjoyment was at itsheight when our teacher caught us, one of my friends and myselfbeing the first victims. The first thing the teacher, did was tomake us give up all our notes. Then she showed them to theprincipal. Our punishment was then completed by having to <stand on the floor for two and a half hours beside a good lecturewhich put an end forever after to our writing notes.

atA Very Scrapey Scrape.

Oh, yes! I have been in many a scrape and there is onething I have always noticed about them, namely: It is so mucheasier to get into a scrape than to get out of it One of myscrapiest scrapes happened when I was in the seventh grade. Ihad just reached school when our teacher left the room. "See mynew ball," I said in a stage whisper to my chum. "Give us acatch," she answered. I complied and we were soon having >a fine gams. We had played for about fifteen minutes when mychum threw It towards me. Poor me! That ball flew past myoutstretched band and bounded into the hall. Then a handwhich I recognized as that of our superintendent picked it up.The teacher came In and the work went on as usual. What agonyI suffered. How I wished that whatever the superintendent in-tended to do would be done at once, and end this terrible sus-pense. I had not long to wait for soon he appeared. "Whose ballIs this?" said he. I had to confess that I was the rightful owner."Iguess I'llkeep this for awhile," was his only comment and heleft the room. All the morning I pondered over the fate of myball. "He shall not have that ball," I decided, and securing mychum for a companion I started for bis office.

I hear some one say,J'Dld he scold?" Well, to prove that heis the best of principals, he did not scold or do anything thatdeserved to be done to me. He gave me the ball and asked me ifI would leave It at home after that "Oh, no," I answered, "forI need It to play with at recess" He laughed and said, "You'd -better not let me get hold of it again," and you may be sure henever did see that ball again. —-y - Harriet Hogg,

whispering.

Thisseemed a.dreadful punishment to me and I resolved to avoidwhispering, but one day I forgot myself.

"T^riHE atmosphere Is really a part of the earth; It Is ma-terial, just as the earth is, notwithstanding the fact

t~_i that we cannot see it and that we seem to be sur-\u25a0SefP^S rounded by empty space. *-y *"•;;::

*™^~^ When the earth was thrown oft from the sun asa planetary mass, it became condensed at first from a gaseousstate into a liquid globe. After a time It cooled on the surfaceenough to form a thin crust, beneath which it remained more orless liquid, but above which enough gases remained uncondensedto form a thin atmosphere, yet substantial enough to support life.Thus," our atmosphere is really a part of the original mass, thecondensation of which formed the solid globe on which we stand.That is why we say it is material; but you have" only to seehow it moves big ships, or tears up trees by the roots, to know

*•"\u25a0 that it Is so.Influence of the Sun.

While the earth remained warm, after condensation, thatwarmth was imparted to the atmosphere; but. after, a while itbecame so cool on the surface that the atmosphere had to dependwholly upon the sun for Its warmth, andthat is the condition that now exists.

The sun does not impart heat to theatmosphere directly; if it did, it wouldbe nearly as warm on the top of a high

mountain as it is at the sea level. Itsrays * warm the earth, and the earthradiates, or throws off, the heat thus re-ceived Into the surrounding air. Thedensity of the air near the earth's sur-face prevents the heat from escaping intospace; the rarity of the air at high alti-tudes permits it to escape. That is whymountain peaks are clothed in perpetualice and snow, while the temperature atthe foot of the mountain may be quitewarm. The atmosphere, by thus holdingthe heat radiated from the earth, iskept about 500 degrees, Fahrenheitwarmer than outer space.

The height of the atmosphere above theearth is not definitely known, but it maybe approximately estimated in severalways. Judged by barometric pressure, itought to end at the height of about thirty-eight miles, for at that height the col-umn of mercury in the barometer wouldtend to disappear. Meteors have beenseen, however, at a height of 100 miles,and as their combfeition results fromfriction generated 7by their passingthrough a resisting .nediurn, there mustfee air at that elevation, though very rare.Observation of the duration of twilight,which, is due to the reflection of thesun's light from particles of dust and air,shows that the limit is about fifty miles,and it is fair to assume, therefore, thatthe atmosphere, in its coherent form, asWe know it, ends at that height.

The Highest Ascent by Man.

The highest ascent ever made by manup a mountain is believed to be that ofZurbriggen on Aconcagua, one of thepeaks of the Andes. He reached an alti-tude of between 23,000 and 24,000 feet.

The highest ascent ever made by manin a balloon is that made by Dr. Berson,of Berlin, in 1894, a height of 30,000 feetBy. inhaling oxygen he overcome the nat-ural effects produced by so great an elevation, and was able tonote the conditions around him. His thermometer registered 54degrees below zero, Fahrenheit, and his barometer went downfrom 30 inches to 9. Two Englishmen, Glaisher and Coxwell, in1862, made an ascent, in which, it is said, they reached an ele-vation of 36,000 feet, but they became unconscious at 29,000 feet,and could not, therefore, make a note of their surroundings, asDr. Berson did. y l.*

A picture for you to look at when you are very warm.— the Philadelphia Times.

At the sea level, with the barometer marking 30 inches, andthe thermometer 32 degrees, Fahrenheit, a cubic foot of pure dryair weighs about 565 grains, troy. The weight of a cubic footof water vapor, under the same conditions, is only 352 grains.When vapor is mixed with dry air, therefore, the resulting com-pound Is lighter— is to say, damp air is lighter than dry air.In stormy weather the air is lighter than it is in fair weather,and not heavier, as many persons suppose. When smoke hangsabout the surface of the earth, it shows that the air is lighterthan the smoke. When the air is dry, it is heavier than thesmoke, and the latter therefore ascends. y; :

The weight of the earth's atmosphere, or, In other words, thepressure exerted upon the earth by the atmosphere, Is about thesame as would be exerted by a flood of water thirty-three" feetin height over the globe. At the sea level, the pressure of theatmosphere is about fifteen pounds to the square inch. A manof ordinary size thus bears, all the time, a pressure of about30,000 pounds, but he does not feel it, because the pressure is ex-erted In every direction, above, below and around him, andbecause his body is filled with air and other fluids that pressoutwards, thus maintaining a state of equilibrium.

The barometric pressure decreases, as we ascend, at the rateof about one Inch for every 1,000 feet of elevation. At a heightof 16,000 feet, the rate of decrease is about one inch for every1,500 feet of elevation, and the proportion of decrease becomesgreater at greater heights. At a height of 18,000 feet, thepressure. is about one-half of what it Is at the sea level, that Isto say, the air at that elevation is only one-half as heavy, as itis at the sea level. y.vy"L.>-y:

The pressure of water at the average depth of the oceantwomilesis about equal to that of 320 atmospheres, that is to say,4,800 pounds to the square inch.

The temperature of the atmosphere cools, on an average,about one degree for every 300 feet that we ascend, or warmsat the same rate as we descend. The mean temperature at thenorth pole Is about 0, and at the equator, between 80 and 90 de-grees. We can, therefore, get Into a temperature one degreecolder for every seventy or eighty, miles that we travel north,and in a temperature one degree warmer for every seventy oreighty miles that we travel south. y .

Temperature at Various Elevations. ~At an elevation of 27,000 feet over the equator, the tempera-

ture is 0; at 18,000 feet, is the snow-line, or freezing point, andat 9,000 feet, there is a mean temperature of about 50 degrees.Imagine a plane, corresponding to the curvature of the earth,and extending from .a point 27,0001 feet above the equator to-wards the north; this plane would; touch the earth at thenorth pole, and all along its course there would be a temperatureof 0 the year round.

Alongthe second plane there would be a freezing temperature the yearround, and along the third, a temperature of 50 degrees.

If the earth were deprived of its atmosphere, the mean tem-perature at the equator would be about 94 degrees below zero,and that at the poles about 328 degrees below zero. The meantemperature of the entire globe would be about 138 degreesbelow zero, which means, of course, that we could not exist aswe are now constituted. -^'.yv

The highest temperatures on the earth usually occur In India,the Red sea, the Persian gulf and Australia. A heat of 130 degreeshas been recorded in the middle of the Sahara, and in the Sinddesert the temperature often rises above 120 degrees. The cold-est temperatures are not found at the poles themselves, as manypersons suppose, but in northeast Siberia and northeast America.

Werkojansk is the coldest place in the world; In January, there,the mean temperature is 55 degrees below zero, while all the yearround it is only 5 degrees above zero. The temperature at thepoles is moderated by the water currents.

He Makes No Attempts to Conceal His Home That

A GREAT many of our birds take great pains to conceal their**»• nests. Some do this, as our humming birds do, by makingthe nest appear as part of the branch on which it is placed/othersby careful concealment; still others make no nest at all as theeggs appear to blend with the surrounding surface on which theeggs are placed. Unlike these birds, the woodpeckers do not tryto conceal their nests in any way, because there is very littledanger of their being robbed. A hawk or an owl cannot reachInto the eggs in their deep bed in the"hard wood; and as the nestis in dead wood which has lost its rough bark, there is not muchdanger from four-footed prowlers. .Near most nests the wood-peckers select good, hard, well seasoned limbs for drums, andall through the mating and nesting period the male drums'withlaboring bill. As he cannot sing he uses all his energy as adrummer and the result is a loud, clear tattoo which soundsover the whole land when the sun brightens in the spring. Thereis only one of our woodpeckers which has any song worthy ofthe name and that is our flicker or golden-winged woodpecker.Even his song is so unsatisfactory to the ardent male that be-tween songs he will mount to some favorite perch and beat aloud, clear, rolling tattoo.

; Everyone who has visited in. the country has seen the smooth,round holes which these birds use fdr their nests. They arecut out in dead or dying timber and are very carefully made.The round opening Is just large enough for the bird to enter jjjthe nest, but it gradually opens until It will allow the bird to§turn around. But the way the nest Is ; chiseled out and finished Sis not what has impressed me with the reasoning power of thesebirds so much as the manner of choosing its site. Anyone whohas done any nailing with a hammer will realize how easy itwould be for the woodpecker to cut | its nest out of the' upperside of a dead limb; and how difficult It would be to do thesame work with an upward stroke from the under side. * Yet weinvariably find the holes of our woodpeckers, when placed on alimb, dug out from the under side. They know just as well aswe do that If the opening is on the upper side the first hardsummer ''rain.will fill it-with water. This is simply one of themany cases which show the student of.nature that all nature'reasons.—Louisville Post

MOSQUITO AND ITS WOES

While They Annoy Others Unmercifully, ThmyHave Troubles of Their Own.

AS ALL fishermen know, dragon flies and mosquitos abound in-x the vicinity of ponds and sluggish water courses. Onetribe is of the hunters and the other of the hunted. Both,' bow-ever, seek the edges of streams for other purposes than thoseof sporting or going a hunting. | Nature has destined that theyshall raise water babies. This is convenient for young fish andinfant frogs with dainty appetles, but a sad state of affairs formosquitos and dragon flies thrilled with an ambition to per-petuate the family name by a numerous progeny. Tender-heartednaturalists think it is hard . lines for the mosquito, and thatnature has shown her cruel side in this law of mosquito exist-ence. In the mosquito family the mother is the head of thehousehold. The male mosquito lays no claim to any reputation,good or bad, except that of fatherhood. He Is mute, does nothingtoward family support, lacks the courage of hunting and Is astrict vegetarian, sucking the juices of innocent plants unable tostrike a blow at him. For all that I doubt if his existence is apleasant one, for hungry Insects, toads, frogs and little birds arenot particular about their diet and would not disdain a vege-tarian male mosquito. - • .-.-*" > ';-

If ever a termagant lived it is the mother mosquito. She hasa shrewish voice, Ja jdetermined temper and a taste for blooddrinking. She it is who spreads fevers, sings In your ear, tan-talizes and torments until life is almost unendurable. Her eggsare laid side by side in a boat-shaped mass on the surface ofthe water. Voracious young fish consider them a dainty morsel.The few eggs that escape being devoured in fish banquets hatchinto, wrigglers. As In fairyland, It is only a few hours frombirth until death; from the moment that a mosquito mother de-posits her egg on the water until the bloodthirsty daughter goesto the battlefield to fight and to fall. With her numerous enemiesit seems incredible that the mosquito amazon should die of oldage. Launched on her career of blood sucking and attending tofamily duties, she finds that enemies await her on every side. Shetakes flight and is lucky if she makes her escape. Mosquitos arefortunate in eluding their enemies, as many of us can testify.

Dragon flies spend their babyhood in the pond along withtheir future prey, the mosquito. No evil habits have been tracedto the adult insects, unless their rapacious appetite for tinymidges and the joyous manner in which they go hawking mos-quitos can be called sins. History shows no record of truth forthat mischievous old wife's fable about the dragon fly being adarning needle to sew up children's ears. It is most unfortunatethat it was ever started, for it has robbed children of a greatdeal of pleasure In watching an innocent and an exceedinglybeautiful . winged creature. The transparent wings are marvelsin structure and admirably adapted for powers of flight Thoughlarge, they are light and strong, strengthened by many veins andveinlets, and reflect the sunshine in all colors of the rainbow.The long body of the dragon fly serves as a rudder and steadiesthe live little airship darting here and there over the surface ofthe water, now catching a clumsy mosquito and now swoopingto the surface to deposit eggs. y - '\u25a0'".:

Tshe JOURNAL, JUNIOR..Mac Harris Anson - , - Editor

The Junior is pubtished by the Minneapolis Journal for the publicschool children of the Northwest, in ;;nd above the fifth grade, and isdevoted principally to their own writings. There is no expense attachedaud all are welcomed as competitors. The editor wishes to encourage cor-respondence and suggestions from teachers. Allcorrespondence shouldbe addressed to the Editor Jonrnal Junior.

At the State Fair.

THERE is going to be an exhibit at the state:fair this year

* which all Junior visitors really ought to see. 'Last year Mrs.* J. B. Hudson represented the Audubon Society of Lake City with

a collection of birds' nests that." was worth seeing and hearing

about. She will be at the fair again this year with a better col-lection, and if you are at all interested in the matter you willthoroughly enjoy having a talk with her about them.

The exhibit will be in the Federation building and Mrs. Hud-son will generally be in . charge. Personally, the editor advisesthat you try to see Mrs. Hudson herself, for she understands thebirds' nests thoroughly, having gathered many of them herselfon summer tramps.

This little hint to the Juniors may make it rather a busyweek for Mrs. Hudson, but she will be glad to talk to all of youthat she can. '\u25a0

Our Island Schools.•pHE latest school news from Porto Rico sounds like a fairy tale.

* The children actually did not want to leave when the end ofthe term came. They were such "Oliver Twists when it came togetting an education that they clamored and begged for moreschool until the authorities heeded and established summerschools in various towns of the island. With this fact beforeyou it will hardly do for any of you Juniors to complain or saythat you wish you did not have to go to school. You have takensuch advantages so much as a matter of course that you probablydo not appreciate them so well as those who come Into them sud-denly. Perhaps, however, when those little Porto Ricans becomea fraction better Americanized, they may be willing to taketheir vacations with a genuine American whoop of delight

Over in Manila there is pretty much the same story to teTl-except that the summer schools there are principally for the- — \u25a0 . - \u25a0 .-.. - -\u25a0 . - -...benefit of the native teachers who wish to fit themselves toAmerican standards. Over 600 Filipino teachers, men and women-gathered by the middle of the first week of .the free normalschool. It was open for a month and thirty-three classes wereheld daily, at which the attendance averaged 98 per cent

Both of these are a most promising feature in the life of theislands, and show bright sides to their, occupation by Americans.

An Empress* Doll."-pHE late Empress Frederick was a good mother, as well as an* able ruler. This means that her children had pretty muchthe same delightful times with " her that you have with your

mothers. So it is likely that more than once her children gath-ered about her knee and begged for a'story of something thatshe did when she was a little girl. *

Probably one of the most delightful stories to her daughters '

was about the wonderful,, mysterious chest which once arrived in>London, f bearing the ;royal arms- and the Inscription, "To theDoll of the Princess Royal of England." Direct from Paris itwas, and the gift of good old King Louis Philippe. More wonder-ful still, every one of those dreams of gowns was made by themost famous dressmaker of Paris. ' In addition to a series ofgowns that any woman might have envied, there were tiny em-broidered handkerchiefs, silk stockings, cashmere shawls, bon-nets and muffs, and as a crowning glory, a little jewel case filledWith beautiful diamond ornaments, every one of which had beenexpressly made for the doll's chest

All this sounds like a story from the Arabian Nights, to usOf less degree, but when it Is all sifted out, It Is doubtful ifall thegowns and gewgaws gave the little princess as much pleasure asthose which your dolls wear, made by your own fingers, giveto you. It is so much nicer to learn to sew on your doll clothes.It means many pleasant hours with your chosen friend in ashady nook with your dolls sitting near and your sewing materialsStrewn about, with perhaps a little lunch now and then provided

by an accommodating mother.Kings and queens and princesses and all the rest of the

royal relations can not be nearly so humanly happy as you are.The fierce "lightwhich beats upon a throne" naturally castsheavy shadows, and there are many simple, human pleasureswhich they desire, but from which they are cut off by the acci-

dent of their birth. —Perhaps all you Juniors who use matches would better han-

dle those for the next two or three years with unusual reverence.There is no telling where the wood of which they are made may

"-, have come from. A manufacturing company has just bought"* Che trees growing on the farm where Daniel Webster was born

"and Is going to cut them up Into friction matches. The pity of Itall Is that the state refused to pay $200 more than the presentprice, although many patriotic citizens -petitioned to have theplace preserved as a perpetual memorial of New Hampshire'sgreatest son. .

Two little stowaways from Porto Rico landed at New YorkIhe other-day. They were so poor that their clothes were gunnyBacks with boles for their arms and heads. But they were deter-mined to get to America and lack of clohes did not bother themIn the least Evidently there Is more than one way of startingBrest to grow up .with the country.

Cuba is becoming Americanized In earnest There were only

**• eases of yellow fever In the whole island at last accounts.Heretofore, during August, ths.fever has claimed its victims bythe hundreds.

THE JOURNAL JUNIOR, MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA, SATURDAY, AUG. 31, 1901.

A S the sun tinted the western sky of the Egyptian desert, we*» .might have seen an old man trudging along, with hair and :beard as white as driven snow. •\u25a0\u25a0"'

If we had followed him he would have led us into one of the

** ancient cities of Egypt where Zibera, one of the greatest of ma-gicians, lived. As the old man from the desert entered the gate,

• he was asked his name and what he came for, to which he an-. swered: ,

"I am Himbroha, slave of the desert lam hungry, thirsty,tired and poor. I have come to the city to obtain work." The

man at the gate bade him enter. •--...'-\u25a0'\u0084... Himbroha trudged; along with a tired tread, traveling

through the city and at last he came to a market street. Passinga small, low store, Himbroha saw an old man with a gray beardand wrinkled face, sitting on a bench with a large covered basketbeside him. As Himbroha passed ', the old man asked him if hewould be kind enough to help him home with his heavy, basket.

. Himbroha first thought how hungry and tired he was, then howheavy the basket was, and made up his mind to help the old man.

The two old men trudged slowly along with their burden, for

It was heavy. • They came, from the • outskirts of the city; upon.a sandy desert and after walking perhaps an hour the old mancried "Stop!" They set the basket down and raised the coverto find the basket half full -of rocks. On the rocks was percheda raven black as night The old man commanded "the raven tocall the black slave, whereupon the raven gave such a screechthat poor Himbroha was frightened half to death. As he recov-ered he stood staring in the. distance at something which -camebounding over the. sand with the speed of the wind, but as itcame nearer he could see It was nothing but a black dog. Him-broha turned to look at the old man and saw that he held a gunaimed at the dog, and, as it neared, the old man pulled thetrigger, and the dog fell dead. The old man pulled a knife fromhis pocket and cut from the dog's mouth a large tooth, and withthis tooth he made three crosses in the sand, stamped his footand instantly before them appeared a beautiful • lake that shonelike silver in the sunlight, and in the distance could be seen alittle boat which skimmed over the lake and soon grounded onthe sand at their feet. -The- old man turned to Himbroha andsaid: SOS

-"I am Zibera, the greatest of magicians. You have helpedme and I shall give you youth and riches for your reward. Enterthe boat with me and you shall go to my castle."

They entered and off glided the boat as swiftly as it had ar-rived. They soon came to an Island covered with beautiful foli-age and in the center loomed up the most magnificent castle thatHimbroha had ever seen. Up steps of gold they went, to a hallwhich seemed to be lighted by archways of diamonds, and toHimbroha's ears came sweet swells of rare music which seemedto issue from a fountain in the center of the hall. '"'';'

Zibera told. Himbroha to bathe in the fountain and he wouldreceive his youth. Himbroha did as he was told and great washis surprise to find his youth restored, with health and beauty.Himbroha then followed Zibera Into a magnificent dining-roomwith a table set with golden dishes. After eating a hearty mealZibera led the way down a flight of stairs Into the cellar; then,taking ten steps, he took the tooth of the black slave ;from hispocket and made three crosses on the sand floor, and stampedhis foot. The . sand separated and two large stones rolled up,leaving an opening well lighted and a flight of stairs which ledto the -land; of wonders. Zibera led :' the way through rooms

.which seemed to hold all the wealth of the world and finally cameto a room that contained a large golden box locked with twelve

,: large locks. - . : "^ ' \u25a0

Zibera took twelve golden keys from his pocket and unlockedthe box, only to find a smaller box; this being opened they foundstill another box, and so on until ten golden boxes were opened,the tenth one containing nothing but a small bottle in whichwas ; something dark in color, neither liquid nor powder. . Ziberatook the bottle carefully In bis hand and said:

"This contains one of my many slaves, and one of the mostwonderful. I give It to you, hoping you may • obtain all thepleasures of this world by its aid. By taking the cork from thebottle you will have before you the slave lit the appearance of agenii, which may frighten you at first, but make your wish, beit great or small, and 'it shall be granted. Ifat any time you .have all you desire you may grant this slave Its liberty, by drop-ping this bottle into a hot fire." /*" »

Himbroha took the bottle and thanking bis friend lor hiskindness, bade him adieu and made his way from the castle. He

found the little boat where they had left It and he was soon car-ried across the lake to the place they had first entered.

" Himbroha started off on the desert, but had not gone far whenhe noticed a bad sand storm approaching. He was frightened atfirst, but when he thought of the bottle he drew it from hispocket, pulled the cork, and as the blue smoke arose he saw Itgather into the form of a huge genii, which said: -"

"At your service, master."Himbroha was so badly frightened at first that he could —""*"*

speak, ( but at last he said that he wanted the desert changed Toa lake, bounded by trees with beautiful foliage and a castle withservants and all the riches of a king. The genii said: %-

\u25a0

"So shall it be." - y . .::.v~ yy y "y:.. •;-..

Himbroha could scarcely believe his eyes, for the desert waschanged to a lake with trees more beautiful than he had ever seenand the castle was equally as grand as Zibera's. Himbroha foundhimself seated on the steps of gold, with the bottle in front ofhim and the genii ready to return to its prison. He corked thebottle carefully and entered the castle and found it more beauti-ful than he expected. .-*KB-©H-&B-_69-i

Himbroha lived for a while in perfect health and luxury, andfinding he had everything that the soul could wish for, he decidedto grant the slave genii liberty. So, taking the bottle to thehuge fireplace he tossed it Into the fire and to Himbroha's greatsurprise a beautiful princess stepped before him. She explainedto Himbroha how for a hundred years she had been bewitched inthe form of a genii as a slave, and asked him what she could doto pay him for her liberty. He told her that he had always livedalone and would be more than pleased if she would be queen ofbis humble kingdom. vy

A New Way of Capturing a Rare AustralianBeauty V* * Skill of South Americans Withthe Blow Gun. * * * ******IN THE forests of northern Australia lives a butterfly which Isalways hunted with powder and shot. This is a brilliant-hued

creature, highly valued by collectors. It Is very shy, and hoversabout the upper branches of the trees, seldom approaching with-in twenty feet of the ground. A traveling American naturalistwent to Australia determined to get some perfect specimens 'ofthis rare Insect. For several days he strove with long nets toentrap some of the beautiful creatures of the . upper air. Heraised ladders and climbed trees at the peril of life and limb,but the wary butterflies kept beyond range of his swooping netYankee ingenuity was not to be beaten so easily, however. Theentomologist hit upon the brilliant idea of a decoy. Loading a gun ;with the smallest shot he had, he brought down one of the high;flyers. It was badly battered, but he patched and furbished Itup to an appearance of respectability, and spread it on a bushtop In a conspicuous spot ten feet above the ground, arranging

the wings with as close a resemblance to life as possible. Curi-osity is a besetting failing of butterflies. Presently two ofthem noticed their departed comrade and began to circle lowerand lower above the bush. Others joined the investigation, and aiTfinally the patient collector was able to capture one of them v • •by a swift movement This sent the others 1 soaring away inalarm, but in a few moments they were back* again, and beforethe day was over the naturalist's ingenuity was rewarded by thecapture of half a dozen perfect specimens, which afterward be-came the property of various scientific museums. Since thenthis has been the recognized, method of taking that species of.Insect. '\u25a0 •'-';_.';," -,';''"

Somewhat similar was the ; capture of some rare SouthAmerican butterflies several years ago. An entomologist, trav-eling on the Orinoco, failed, after many attempts, to take a sin-

. gle specimen of a swallowtail butterfly, which haunted the upperfoliage of the forest One day his party came across a band of . .half-savage natives, armed with blowgun3, bows and spears, oneof whom oflered to supply the collector with a number of the de-sired insects at a price. An offer of twenty-five cents a specimenrepresented opulence to the native, who returned on the follow-ing evening with six of the butterfliesall perfect or nearly so.How the Indian could catch the shy and delicate Insect, whichbe himself, with all the Implements of the chase, could not cap-ture, was a problem to the traveler. Not until he was aboutto leave would the native explain. His method was very simple,he said, and pointed to his blow gun, a weapon with which thesepeople are marvelously accurate and deadly marksmen, evenkilling big game with darts blown from them. He had "markeddown" his butterfly, waited \u25a0 for it to , alight, and then shot apellet to the leaf upon which It was poising. The Impact wassufficient to stun the prey and bring it to the ground withoutinjuring Its fragile wings. Youth's Companion.

THE trouble between France and Turkey seems to have. £ grown worse instead of better. For a time it lookedii,_— as if Turkey had yielded to the demands of the French&s£& ambassador and would give the quay company its full

rights under the concession. M. Constans, the Frenchambassador, sent a personal letter to the sultan, giving him avery short time In which to comply with his demands. Thesultan delayed, according to his wont and M. Constans left Con-stantinople promptly at the time he had stated he would if thesultan did not agree to his terms. This departure marks thereal breaking off of diplomatic relations and there is somefear that It may also mean the dissolution of the agreementamong European nations to maintain the integrity of Turkey.Some dispatches from Constantinople say that the sultan will goto war rather than yield to unreasonable demands. All of theembassies complain of vexatious interferences with trade owingto this trouble with France and the departure of M. Constans.

Venezuela and Colombia also are seething more than theywere a week ago. According to South American ways, war al-ready exists between Venezuela and Colombia, even though therehas been no formal declaration to that effect. The latter coun-try is said to be fairly seething with unrest and all classes willwelcome a decisive fight which will result in a positive settle-ment of the trouble between the two countries. The last battlefought at Panama was a year ago, and about one-third of thefighters were left on the field. Since then not much has beenheard of the trouble, although reports have come in now andthen telling of clashes In the interior. It is generally felt that& decisive battle must come soon.

strange, mysterious movement which we call migration.If we could see the whole bird world, by night as well as

by day, what a wonderful procession would appear. Robinsand other fearless wingsters boldly setting out on their travelsby day; shy thrushes stealing away under cover of darkness;small birds combining In great flocks, sometimes of manyspecies, and one and all departing with no note of farewell,and In silence except for the calls that keep them together.

Two Problems of Migration.

Migration is the most wonderful and the least understoodfact of bird life, with its two problems, why they change theirresidence and how they find their way? It Is easy to see whythey leave us in the fall, but why do they come back? Thereare many theories, but there is little real knowledge. HerrGatke studied the subject for fifty years' on the small Islandof Heligoland, and added to the general Information little' morethan some doubtful theories. It is easy enough to form theoriesof bird life, but I notice that the more one really knows aboutthe lives of birds, by observation and patient investigation, themore modest one is about making oracular statements, or set-ting up any theory. It is the newcomer to the study who knowsit all, and can settle off-hand the problems that have puzzledornithologists for ages. Something is known of the wonderfulheight at which migrating"' birds fly, and of the incredible speedthey attain. Much has been learned of the marvelous distance,the thousands of miles some of the smallest birds travel, butbow the delicate creatures are able to endure all this, why theydo not content themselves nearer home, and how they knowtheir way back to the spot they left in the fall—of these we knownothing. In these and other difficulties we have one re-

Training vs. Instinct.source. We can take refuge in the word "Instinct," which ex-plains nothing, to be sure, but is a convenient term under whichto classify the things we do not know. Year by year as thestudy goes on, one after another of the acts of birds heretoforeclassed as "instinctive" is found by experiment to be due toreason or training. Singing the song of his father, for ex-ample, is no longer considered instinctive, it is known to be amatter of training or imitation; the same is true of the fear Aofmen, the selection of food and other things. But migration,the Inclination to go, the knowledge of the way, the place toStop, and, still more remarkable, the return to the same nest-ing spot all are still set down to Instinct We may yet getlbs clue to the mystery, and it is certainly a most interestingsubject of study. Herr Gatke's theory that the young birdsof the season, birds a few months old, lead In the fall flitting,finds some supporters, but more opposers among Americanornithologists. Unless eve~y bird in a flock Is killed it Is diffi-cult to see how one can know there are no old birds as leaders,especially In species where the plumage of the young is likethat of one or both parents. :;- :"';',Ty

There Is also fresh interest in making acquaintance with thestrangers, as they pass through and linger for jdays, sometimesfor weeks. It Is true that the knowledge gained, is little morethan of the looks and manners of the birds, for they are mostfrequently silent, except for their calls. But it is pleasing tobear the tin-trumpet of the red-breasted nuthatch, the briefutterances of the various thrushes, the incisive notes of the fox-colored and white-throated sparrows, the staccato chirp of thewinter wren, and be Inspired to seek them on their return inthe spring, to hear their song.

The "Hurrah" Leader. v

Last September a mysterious proceeding of those birds ofmystery, crows, came under my observation. All the season I hadbeen Interested in listening to the peculiar call of one bird. ItBounded so exactly like "hur-rah" that I was startled andthought at first it must be an escaped pet who had been taughtOn the occasion spoken of there was an assembly of crows whoseemed to be in great excitement, flying around and calling.There were a dozen or more In a group of trees within plainsight of my window. On the top twig of the tallest tree satthe "hurrah" crow. Every few minutes he uttered that strangecry with great apparent effort, humping his shoulders, depress-ing his head and tail, and lifting his wings. As soon as he gavethe cry the others responded with a long "c-a-w," and at onceflew around In a small circle, returning to the same trees, whilethe leader never moved from his perch, or joined in .their cry.Thi3 performance was kept up an hour at a time. . Was it exer-cising the season's young folk Was It some sort of Initiatorydrill? ...

A Crow Dressing-room.

The crows of that vicinity—an island off the coast of Maine—lived largely, if not exclusively, on sea food. They did noteat It where found, however, but carried It to a small groveof very tall spruce trees, which appeared to be their commondining-room. The ground below was scattered with the remainsof - their repasts, shells of clams, sea urchins and crabs, andother edible things found on the shore. This, too, seemed to ibetheir dressing-room, for here their moulted plumage was found.

In this month there are often opportunities to render aid toyoung birds who wander away, or are driven by storm from theirflock and are lost One may sometimes rescue such unfor-tunates from cats or bad boys, and keeping them a day or twotill they are stronger, send them on their way. One such stray—a hermit thrushwas kept as a pet, and was never afraid ofpeople. He was an exquisite singer, and uttered a great manylow notes more rapturous and thrilling than his loud song, orthan one ever succeeds In hearing from a wild thrush, and allwithin three feet of strangers, without a thought of fear. -

Now Is the time, toward the end of tbe month, to lie awakeat night with wide-open windows and listen for the little callsof the travelers, which at that hour sound so pathetic, "Fallingdreamily thro' the sky."

MOTHERED BY A FEATHER. DUSTER.ChicKens Thrive Under the Protection

ofan Inanimate Foster-Parent.C EVEN fluffy little chickens belonging to a family living on*-} Twelfth street, near Broadway, have a queer mother. Forthe past two weeks the only protection they have had has beena big feather duster. ,The substitute for the mother has servedjits purpose so well that the family expects to raise chickens inJ the same way every year. ".".-.-

The chickens were hatched about three weeks, their motherbeing an old hen which the family had bought in market andhad intended to fatten and eat. Before she arrived at the propercondition to be baked she took a notion to set As is usual insuch cases persuasion was vain, and she held to her determina-tion to raise a family. A dozen eggs were given her and shehatched - out eight chicks. Of these she was very proud. Abouttwo weeks ago a number of friends from out of town visited the..family .unexpectedly. . The prpblam ,of what to have for dinnerwas a serious one, as it was Sunday and no groceries were open.It was suggested that the hen be killed, but the children werenot willing that" the chickens should be left to shift for them-selves at so tender an age. .

The problem was solved by the boy, who suggested that thehen be killed and the big feather duster be substituted for thehen. The duster was suspended just above the floor in the cor-ner of the kitchen, and the chickens placed under it in a box.

There they have remained ever since and are growingrapidly. They seem to take kindly to the innovation, and at thefirst sign'of danger they all retreat to the duster, nestling amongthe —Louisville Courier-Journal.

Fancy Gloves in a Potato Field.

This incident, though not funny, was very amusing to me atthe time. What do you think it was? It was sprinkling potato

-: bugs. " This day was in the month of June. I went -'for'a tfisitto Wisconsin. As they knew I was a great worker they asked ifI would like to earn some money. "Certainly I would," I re-plied. "What will the work be?" "Sprinkle potato bugs," theyanswered. ''All right." So in a great hurry on went my hat andgloves, such fancy gloves, and. I went towards the field.We arrived in a short time and I began to knock the potato bugs

in all directions. What a laugh they had' at me. Then theycorrected my mistake, and told me I was to sprinkle them in-stead of knocking them . off, and they showed -me how. Thesprinkler was the shape of a bicycle pump, except that at theend it had a can in which was paris green. After my work be-came successful it was very amusing, but at first I thought it wasqueer if we had to run and knock them off.'....'."

Like a Rubber Ball.

An Incident which I consider very amusing occurred thefirst day I was visiting my cousin Frank in the country. I hadbeen- there but an hour when my uncle told Frank and me toride the horses down to the tank and water them. Iknew noth-ing whatever of horses and so I asked Frank to give me as gentlea horse as possible. "Yes," he replied, with a twinkle in hiseye that I knew v meant mischief. He; went Into the stable andreturned leading a vicious broncho, by the name of Billy. Notknowing this, however, I mounted, gave the horse a slap on theback and away he started at breakneck speed for the tank. Upand down on his back I bounced like a rubber ball. When hereached the tank he stopped suddenly short, and putting hishead down to drink, I slid lightly down his neck into the ice coldwater of the tank. I was pulled out, however, by some boyswho stood laughing at my sad mishap." But I was none the worsefor my cold bath, and I soon joined in their laughter. -: B Seventh Grade;' y "Russell Chapman,

SPIDER WEBS

The Many Uses to Which the Filmy StructuresMay Be Put.

ONE naturally thinks of a spider's web as the home of the, spider, or as a trap for the capture of heedless Insects; yet

these are only two of the many uses to which it is put Amongsome of our small spiders no web is built at all; they are very ac-tive ' little fellows, and can .be seen busy stalking their Insectprey through the grass or the green summer foliage. Althoughthese spiders do -not build a web, still the slender bit of webwhich they leave behind them is very useful, and often savesthem from many bad, falls. When stalking their; prey, thesespiders aim to remain In concealment until within jumping dis-tance; then they make a dash, and in the final" spring they

often : miss \u25a0 their mark. When this happens in a high tree topthe fall might prove disastrous, but the slender line which theyconstantly spin soon stops them hanging in midair. When theyfind where they are, they calmly turn about and climb up theirslender life line.

Late in the summer afternoons one may see long, filmy linesof spider webs floating on the soft wind against the red and goldof.the setting sun. Ifyou will catch these webs, you will gen-erally And a tiny spider enjoying a ride, banging onto some ofthe lower strands. It Is veryI odd to watch one of these tiny

aeronauts preparing for* an ascension. It climbs to the. top ofsome tall weed In the open meadow and throws strand afterstrand to the summer air. It keeps tight hold of the various

ends, and constantly tries their lifting. power as the wind un-furls them. Holding on with Its front legs, the spider tiptoes asthe wind gives the webbing's strong pull; at length, when thepull becomes -strong. enough, it floats away on the afternoonbreeze. In building webs across wide spaces in the forest thissame use is made of light webbing, except the spider does notride on its kite. It uses these filmy bits of webbing for a kiteproper, and simply attaches a line of web- to It, and files it acrossthe open space, and thus fastens its first line in place. •. After ithas one good.line across the space between the. trees, it is veryeasy to finish the big webs, which we see hanging in numbers inevery woodland path.—Louisville Poet. - .^ . y.'- \u25a0

THE TUFTED TITMOUSEHe Is Always Bright and Cherry, No Matter How

Cold and Boisterous the Weather.

WHEN winter comes from the bleak north and sends numbersof our songsters to warmer lands, this little bird becomes

very conspicuous. He Is always bright and cheery, no matter bowcold or boisterous the weather; indeed, be seems to be feelinghis best and striving to make all nature more cheerful by con-tinually calling "Quida! Quida!" This call note is commonlyinterpreted as "peter, peter," . and he . is often called the peter

bird; but to me it sounds more like "quida, quida." Walkingthrough the wintry woods, with no sign or sound of life In na-ture, Ihave come upon a band of these hardy little birds in somesheltered nook, and their cheerful "quida, quida" has. made allthe day seem brighter. \u25a0 During the winter you will* almost in-variably find some other birds in these little bands. Sometimes itwill be several chicadees, and again a number of golden crownedkinglets, all of them gleaners of the wintry woods. These.tinybirds search every bit of woodland for insects, their eggs andlarvae. Watch these birds carefully as they search a big foresttree for their food. They run out along a limb searching everycrack and cranny on its upper side; every few inches they hang

over the edge of the limb to examine the sides and un-der surface. When they reach the tiny twigs they

often examine every tiny bud to be sure that no insectlurks in its cover. There is really no way to estimatethe great good these little birds do in the course of asingle winter, for they must destroy an incalculablenumber of noxious insects and their eggs each year.

Well Hidden Nests.

Long after I had seen the nests and eggs of mowof our common birds I hunted in vain for the nest orthis little bird. Of course, I knew from my readingthat they" built their nests in natural cavities of trees,and I watched closely all suitable locations whichcame under my notice. It seemed strange that a birdwhich was so common and tame as the tufted titmouseshould. have such a rare nest; but for several years Ilooked in vain. Early one May morning I rode downto the woods pasture for the cows. Itwas one of thoseglorious mornings in spring when all nature is atune;one of those mornings when the songs of birds and thefaint pink and gold of the rising sun all seemed a partof the harmony of the universe. I was riding aimless-ly along, simply absorbing all that nature could giveme of song, color and soft breezes. Suddenly a birddarted out of a knothole in an old apple tree and flewInto the woods near by. It flew so quickly and silentlyinto the gray of the morning that I failed to see whatit was. For several mornings I watched to catch aglimpse of the bird, but failed. At last, in desperation,I got a stick and tried to measure the depth of theknothole. When the. stick had gone about eight Inchesit struck something soft, and a peculiar. whirring hadsounded, very much like the noise made by a snake'stail when the snake is preparing to strike. The whir-ring sound soon stopped,. and was followed by . a low,snapping noise. I was confident that a.. snake hadkilled and eaten the bird and taken possession of thecavity. I punched the stick a little harder and a birdflew out. It lit in the edge of the woods, and withcrest erect, said, angrily, "quida-quida." Then I

knew I had at last found the nest of the tufted titmouse.The queer Materials They. Use.

Since then I have seen several : nests of this littlebird. The eggs are Bainty bits, white, thickly covered with red-dish brown spots. In the first nest I found I got a piece of cast-offsnake skin. This same peculiarity of using bits of snake skinwith other material for nest building is shown in another fam-ily of birds, which use natural cavities for nesting. The greatcrested fly catcher invariably uses snake skin for its nests; andI have often puzzled my brain to find some reason for this prac-tice, but can get no satisfactory explanation. It has been sug-gested that the snake skin is used to keep snakes out of theirnests, on the principle "that the hair of the dog is good for the :bite." I.remember one white day. in winter, when all natureseemed dead, I was surprised to hear a chorus of shrill voicesfar up a deep ravine. I followed the sound, and at length sawa crowd of small birds flying in and out of a small red cedar. On •'closer examination, I found that it was a band of tufted tit-mice; but I could not see what they were after. As I approachedvery close they flew away, and I discovered a small red screechowl sitting In the dense foliage of the cedar. The owl had got- '

ten as close against the trunk of the tree as possible, and withits peculiar coloring it was almost invisible. When the owl sawme it flew out and lit in a large walnut tree near by. Imme-diately the titmice were reinforced by some juncos, and withangry calls and twitterings they drove the owl out of sight andhearing. It sucprises me constantly, this Intelligence of birds.How do they know that in the strong light of day an owl is al-most helpless? As soon as dusk comes stealing over the sky theywill.not go near an owl. Is this reason, or is it what is gen-erally spoken of as instinct?

This little bird .is rather soberly garbed, but his Lcolors are soft and harmonious. The upper surfaces are ashy,becoming very dark on wings and tail. The sides of the headand the under surfaces are dull white. On each side, just underthe wings, is some chestnut The head has ,a very fine crest,and at its base in front is a small black spot This little birdmeasures about six and a half inches In length.—Louisville Post.

Madeleine of Vercheres I»f£&_£ °ld

i —_i IOYS and girls, no less than men and women. In thef\ I troublous times when America, was first settled, held

L_mJ themselves ready at any time to face sudden dangerSfcj~yjjj(j without flinching. The story of Madeleine Jarret is still

*********preserved in the records of French Canada to showwhat has been done by a young girl's quick wit and courage. '

On the southern bank of the St Lawrence, Just below theisland of Montreal, lies the little Canadian county of Vercheres.The town of Vercheres, the capital of4 the county, Is now acommonplace manufacturing community, but two hundred yearsago, after the outbreak of the bitter struggle between the Frenchand the Iroquois, it was a fortified settlement, of great Impor-tance as well as of great danger. The only highway from theIndian haunts in the forests of New York to the Canadian settle-ments lay along the water course of Lake George and Lake

!,. Champlain and the Richelieu river. Vercheres, which was mid-way between Montreal and Sorel, and at the junction of theRichelieu and St. Lawrence, guarded theimmediate approach by water to Mon-treal, and was at the same time withineasy reach of the marauding bands ofsavages that swooped down on theripe fields of the Canadians.These attacks became so frequent thatmen at last dared not till their landsalone, and either abandoned their farmsor worked in companies, going first to

/one farm, then to another, to gain theadded security of numbers.

According to this custom, twenty

farmers had assembled at Vercheres InOctober, 1692. It was late in the after-noon of the 22d. The men were hasten-ing to finish their task in the fields,half a mile or more from the little fortwhich crowned the river bank. The daywas bleak and gloomy. Great cloudsbung gray and lowering in the sky,. sending a chill of foreboding into thestoutest heart among the workers. Yettwo persons in the little settlement onthat dreary afternoon paid no heed tothe threatening weather. These wereLouis and Alexander Jarret sons of the

. commander of the fort, who .-.-.re watch-ing Laviolette, the aged boat , builder,as he put the finishing touches to a new

. bark canoe. Madeline, their sister, four-teen years old, had joined them, but ananxious look stole into her face as sheglanced now and then toward the dis-tant fields. M. Jarret, the commander,had been called away with his garrisonby Governor Frontenac, on the rumorthat 10,000 Bostonians were on their way to destroy the Canadiancapital. Only the old carpenter and two broken down, half-witted fellows were left to guard the fort Upon Madeleinethen came the care of her two younger brothers, and, in fact,she felt responsibility for the fort!itself in the absence of anysuitable defenders. But no trouble was expected, since all hadbeen quiet for several weeks. **"*£'**' l

The little group about the boat builder were absorbed in ad-miration of the beautiful canoe, when suddenly a distant yell,shrill and piercing, burst upon their ears, blanching their facesand freezing them with terror. / '

"Run, mademoiselle, run! The Iroquois!" gasped Laviolette,regaining his voice. Seizing a boy with each hand he fairlyleaped up the bank toward the gate of the fort. "-'•?;='

The Indians were soon in full view, hurrying along the opencountry between the fort and the fields where the farmers wereat work. They must have come from the wooded edge of theriver below Vercheres, for as the stream made a slight bend atthat point, they could not be observed from the landing whereLaviolette and the children had been. -Had a proper watch beenkept at the fort, however, the farmers might perhaps have beenwarned in time. Madeleine knew at once that there could be no

m help for the workmen among so many savages. Her only hopewas to save herself and the few who might be in the fortPressing closely behind her three companions she threw herselfinside the gate of the palisade.

"To arms! To arms!" she shouted,- breathlessly. "Gachet!La Bonte! To arms! To arms!" There was no response. Onlytwo terrified women came rushing from their cabins in the in*closure to meet her, and clung to her skirts with tears and sobs.Their husbands were in the fields, and that very moment DerhaDS

would prove their last The firing and yelling outside grewlouder, mingled with cries of distress. Madeleine rushed aboutin search of the two men. As she entered the covered passageleading to the blockhouse she saw one of them in tbe furthercorner, and before she could reach him the second appeared with

I a lighted taper in his hand.y "What are you doing with that torch, Gachet?" she called

out sharply as the fellow turned toward the.store of powder

near him.

"There is no chance for us, mademoiselle," he said, his paleface growing more ghastly in the flaring light. "You do not knowthe Iroquois. Better to die here together than roast over thecampfires of those devils. We must blow up the blockhouse."

"You are a miserable coward!" cried the girl, "and you, too,Pierre La Bonte. Give me the torch. Shall we fling away ourlives without shedding one drop of their miserable blood? Letus fight to the last breath." Madeleine seized a musket as shespoke, and her resolute tones roused the men. They armed them-selves, and, taking muskets for each of the two boysfor veryyoung children In those days of terror knew how to handle fire-arms —the five placed themselves In readiness at the loopholes.

Laviolette was already busy repairing a breach in the palisade.For some time the Indians were too much occupied with their

easy prey in the fields to turn their attention to the fort, whichwas some distance from them, and the little company was ableto lay its plans of defense. From time to time they fired the\u25a0ingle cannon, the pride of the fort As night drew on a strong

north wind began to blow, and soon a cold, driving sleet wasupon them. Not one of the men had made his escape to the fort,bo cunningly had the savages arranged themselves between thefarmers end a place of safety. Since her encounter with the twohalf-witted fellows in the blockhouse, . Madeleine bad assumedcommand of the situation quite naturally, her first feeling of be-wilderment and terror passing away. Although Indian warfarewas usually one of stealth, and on ordinary occasions the savages\u25a0bowed the utmost reluctance to attack a fortified place, Made-leine was well aware that in the darkness of the storm theycould easily scale the palisade without detection, and would un-doubtedly try to make the best of so favorable an opportunity.

Her only hope was that they might be deceived as to thestrength of the garrison. •If they believed the fort was defendedthey would* never allow themselves to be caught in a trap. Shemust strain every nerve, . then, to keep up the appearance atnumbers. - -

THE JOURNAL JUNIOR. MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA, SATURDAY. AUG. 31, 1901.

Laviolette took his place on one ofthe bastions. Little Alex-ander was placed at another, armed with a drum in addition tohis musket. Louis, who "was two years, older, took his place alsowith a gun. La Bonte was to keep guard at the entrance of theblockhouse, with a horn slung over his shoulder, ready to soundan alarm. The young commander stationed herself at the remain-"ing outermost bastion, urging her sentinels to call back and forthat frequent "^^.y .".'-"-?' _C

The hours dragged on slowly in the cold and .wet, but thewatchers stood well to their duty. Just after midnight, Made-leine, peering earnestly through the darkness, descried a movingsomething outlined against the now softly falling snow, andsoon two stealthy figures were distinctly visible close to the fort"'Without waiting to discover their purpose, Madeleine boldly firedher musket, the prearranged signal, whereat the drum Instantlybeat a loud tattoo, Louis and Laviolette discharged their guns,and the trumpet from the blockhouse responded with a loud blast

"""" The clatter was continued for some mo-ments, then the sentinels ceased theirdin to watch , and wait. All was quiet,and no sign appeared of the shadowyfigures.. The night wore en -and.another day and night of • anx-ious watching followed. On the thirdday La Monnerie, who had heard of the

| attack at Vercheres, and was anxious- not to lose so important a post, arrived

with forty men. -, Madeleine, at first sight of her coun-trymen, sprang from the bastion and

Iran joyously to meet them, not forget-

ting, even in her assurance of safety, toleave sentinels at the gate. ' "Monsieur,I surrender my arms," she said, salut-ing La Monnerie, and then dropping acourtesy as she smiled up in his face.

'They ore in good hands. I accept no. surrender, mademoiselle," replied theI officer, returning her courtesy with a sa-

lute given in as grand a manner as ifshe had been punctilious old CountFrontenac himself.

Hi Tbe soldiers found no words to ex-press their admiration as they saw theyoung sentinels at the gates, and per-fect order everywhere. Later theylearned. that on the night. of the 22dthe Iroquois had planned an attack onthe fort, but had desisted because theirscouts bad found it full of soldiers.

La Monnerie laughed heartily at tbestory of Madeleine's mode of defenae,. then turning to her, he said: ..* y

And .so it comes to you from all sides. Whatever Is Identifiedwith the welfare of the village, and especially with the welfareof the village young people, Mr. Kirk "has a finger in," as the;express itylust now he is the head and sinews of a villagelibrary, which, started with a hundred books, mostly from his ownprivate stel-e, and now contains one thousand volumes of up-to-date literature housed in an extremely pretty little buildingrecently completed, and the first of its kind to be erected intbe state of Florida. There is a peculiar fascination in lookingover these books, for many of them &re presentation copiesand upon 1 their fly-leaves we find names which are householdwords among us, as H. C. Bunner, Rudyard Kinpling, W. O. Stod-dard, John Kendrick Bangs, Eugene Field and hosts of othersUsually they have some inscription or bit of verse to | their"Friend, Kirk Munroe."

Kirk Monroe's house is small, but It Is surrounded by broad,cool-looking verandas, and there is an orange tree which snug-gles some of its branches In under the; front veranda roof, andthere are lemon trees on one side and a confusion of fruit treesand flowers which peep' at one from somewhere behind. But,for the most part, the ground in front is open lawn, stretching tothe water and affording an unobstructed view across the beauti-ful Biscayne bay, to a long line of inclosing reefs or keys in thedistance. Down from the house is a well-worn path leading di-rectly to a pier and boathouse; and here, except when away onone of its many pleasure or fishing excursions among the keys,may be seen Mr. Munroe's fine yacht and its good-naiered, ebony-faced keeper.

The surroundings are picturesquely wild and tropical. Palmtrees abound; and in the woods or "hammocks" are wild orangesand lemons, and limes and figs. Clumps of giant bamboos areseen along the path which leads through the hammock -to thehouse, and all about is a growth which is unfamiliar and curious.

Ifwe go Into the house we find Mrs. Munroe, who is a daugh-ter of Amelia Barr, the novelist, very cordial and entertaining,and Ifwe evince an interest in her husband's work she will showus English reprints of his books which she smilingly declares areher own especial property. Before we know it, half an hour hasslipped by, and we go away with as much interest in the author'spersonality as we have hitherto felt in his work. Besides beingan author, Mr. Munroe* is' the most successful orange grower ofDade county and has, for three years in succession, capturedthe first prize for oranges at his county fair. He also takes prizes'forroses. 7. "* .-y. ? -* \u25a0\u25a0 --*?.\u2666-,\u25a0---_

DO BIRDS WHISTLE OR SINGMan's Only Mimic Is the Bird.

, London Globe.It-has often, been cause for astonish-

ment that an animal so remote as a birdIn the line of development from manshould be the only creature capable in tholeast degree of; imitating the human voice.A talking horse has from time to timebeen advertised, but for ; practical pur-poses man's only mimic is the bird. AnAmerican naturalist has recently writtento prove that birds are not singers, butwhistlers; that is to J say, that the notesare produced through a . tubeto be tech-nical, through the slit known as theglottis—not by the help of vocal cords.But the whole distinction is beside .thepoint. Any one who has seen a bird sing-ing will have seen both the vibrations ofhis throat and the variations in the extentto which he opens and closes his beak ormandibles; and given these accompani-ments, together with the production of anarticulate language, whistling and sing-ing become identical, in spite of technicalterms suggesting a distinction. Peopleare accustomed to the idea that only; afew species of birds, such as the parrotand the jackdaw, can be taught, but inwild life almost all birds are mimics tosome extent, and probably more of themthan people realize could be taught toimitate human sounds. The starling hasastonishing skill in taking off other birds,end - even the raucous Jay can* producea song, or a whistle if the word is pre-ferred, which ; would do justice to athresh.

New Yorkers are great lovers of flowers.

It is estimated that $3,000,000 worth ofcut flowers are sold in "New York annu-ally. The sale of plants aggregates about"{1,500,000 more a year. The principal de-mand does;not.come," as might be sup-posed, from the wealthy classes, but frompeople of moderate means. The more ex-pensive ; flowers form . a comparatively,email part of the supply. Roses are themost popular flowers, and . after themcarnations. Violets rank . third in thelist, followed by chrysanthemums. Thereare at present 1,200 florists In New YorKstate growing flowers under seme 4,500, -000 square feet of glass.. The United States grows more flowersartificially than any other country inthe world.
