r>clhl,  India,  Dec.  23. — Baron  Har- 
tflngre,  viixroy  of  India,  was  wounded 
and  an  attendant  was  killed  by  a  bomb 
hurled  at  the  viceroy  from  a  house- 
top as  he  was  entering'  the  new  capital 
In  state  today.  The  bomb  struck  the 
howdah,  or  basket,  of  the  viceroy's 
elephant,  kiUing  the  attendant  in- 
stantly. The  viceroy  was  removed  to  a

pfntirated  the  back  and  shoulders  of 
the  viceroy,  and  he  also  was  wounded

splinters  from  the  wounds  declared  it

tal injury's. 

Lady  Mardingre.  immediately  after 
the  explosion,  asked  her  husband  if  h»; 
Was  hurt.     The  viceroy  replied: 

"I  am  all  right;  go  on." 

Lady  Hardinge   then  said: 

"We  cannot.  There  is  a  dead  man 
behind. '

UNCLE  SAM  SLOW  (N 
MILITARY  AVIATION 

Chief  of  Navy  Corps  Says 
Japan  Leads  This  Coun- 
try in  That  Work. 

Washington.  Dec.  23. — The  United 
States,  home  of  the  first  heavler-than- 
alr  flying  machine,  is  far  behind  other 
nations  In  military  aviation.  This  ls> 
the  assertion  of  Capt.  Washington  1. 
Chambers,  U.  S.  N.,  chief  of  the  navy's 
aviation  corps,  an  expert  who  is  de- 
voting his  entire  time  to  the  science. 

"France  leads  the  world  in  aviation, 
and  all  that  she  does  la  worth  noting," 
paid  Capt.  Chambers.  'A  short  time 
ago.  in  response  to  an  inciulry  by  the 
minister  of  war,  over  3,000  officers 
signified  their  desire  to  learn  aerial 
navigation.  Germany  leads  in  aerosta- 
tions, but  is  making  great  progress  In 
aviation  also.  France  has  eight  dir- 
igibles and  (Germany  thirty.  The  num- 
ber of  aeroplanes  actually  possessed 
by  each  rapidly  is  Increasing.  France 
probably  will  possess  about  350  before 
the  end  of  the  year,  the  ultimate  aim 
being  to  have  1,000  as  soon  as  the 
requisite  number  of  pilots  can  be 
taught  to  use  them. 

"It  is  significant  of  German  forc- 
Biglit  that  one  of  the  first  steps  under- 
ta.ken.  when  it  was  decided  to  con- 
struct a  large  aeroplane  fleet,  was  to 
found  an  aero-dynamic  laboratory 
This  is  at  Gottlngen,  where  the  best 
known  course  of  instruction  in  aero- 
nautics is  conducted  by  Prof.  Prandtl." 

France  leads  with  a  total  approprii- 
tlon  of  $0,400,000  to  date  and  a  popular 
BubsoriiJtlon  of  ?1, 000,000.  Germany 
is  second  with  a  total  appropriation 
of  |l,500,'t00  and  a  popular  ?750,000 
subscription.  >:e.\t  come  Russia.  Great

Washington,  Dec.  23.— Whether  Ci- 
priano  Castro,  former  president  of 
Venezuela,  will  be  permitted  to  land  In 
the  United  States  Is  being  considered 
by  officials  of  this  government.  It  is 
reported  that  he  has  started  from  Paris 
to  N&w  York.  Although  the  state  de- 
partment, through  Its  consular  agents, 
has  been  keeping  a  close  watch  on 
Castro's  movement.  It  has  not  been  ad- 
vised  of   his   move   toward    the   United 

Officials  frankly  confess  that  they 
have  not  yet  reached  a  decision  as  to

HICXEY  MAY  END 

LiFE  IN  PRISON 

Boy's  Murderer  Gets  Sen- 
tence Whose  Minimum 
Is  Twenty  Years. 

Buffalo,  N.  v..  Deo.  23.—.!.  Frank 
llickey,  convictea  of  murder  in  the 
second  degree  for  the  killing  of  Jo- 
seph Joseph,  a  T-year-old  I^-aekawanna 
boy  Oct.  12,  1911,  was  sentenced  this 
morning  to  the  state's  prison  at  Au- 
burn for  an  Indeterminate  sentence, 
the  minimum  of  which  is  twenty  years 
and  the  maximum  life. 

After  twenty-six  hours'  deliberation 
the  jury  brought  in  a  verdict  of  mur- 
der in  the  second  degree.  Thirteen 
ballots  were  taken  to  decide  Hlckey's 
fate.  Twelve  resulted,  accoring  to  the 
Jurors,  in  a  vote  of  nine  for  conviction 
and  three  for  not  guilty  on  the  ground 
of  insanity.  The  thirteenth  and  la.st 
ballot  was  taken  after  the  jury  had  re. 
ported  to  the  court  that  thoy  could  not 
agrte.  Justice  Brown  at  that  time  de- 
clined to  discharge  the  man,  and  di- 
rected them  to  make  another  effort 
to    reach    a    verdict. 

StrnnKled  lliii  Victim. 

Hickey,  after  buying  young  Joseph 
candy,  enticed  him  to  a  deserted  build- 
ing, strangled  him  and  hurled  his  body 
Into  cesspool.  A  country-wide  search 
of  over  a  year  failed  to  afford  any 
clew  as  to  the  boy's  fate. 

Rectntly  the  police  received  a  series 
of  postal  cards  telling  in  detail  of  the 
crime.  These  cards  led  to  the  recovery 
of  the  body  and  the  arrest  of  Hickey 
at  an  inebiiate  colony  at  Whiting,  N. 
J.  He  made  a  confession,  admitting 
at  the  same  time  the  killing  of  Edward 
Morey  in  Lowell,  Mass..  In  1883,  by 
giving  him  poisoned  whisky,  and  the 
strangling  to  death  of  Michael  Kruck, 
a  New  York  newsboy,  in  Central  park. 
Dec.   10,   1902. 

Judge  Brown.  In  discharging  the 
Jury,  said  it  was  "extremely  to  be  re- 
gretted that  justice  could  not  be  done 
to  the  defendant.  The  public  and  the 
court  do  not  feel  satisfied  with  this 
result.  For  those  of  you  who  have 
earnestly  endeavored  to  procure  a  dif- 
ferent result,  the  court  depires  to  ex- 
tend to  you  its  sincere  thanks  for  your 
efforts    to   render   Justice." 

Public  indignation  at  the  outcome  of 
the  case  H?  intense,  and  in  legal  circles 
the  possibility  of  having  Hickey  tried 
for  the  murder  of  the  Kruck  boy  Is 
being  discussed. 


CARL  L.  ALSBERG. 

Xew  York,  Dec  23. — Dr.  Harvey  W. 
Wiley,  former  chief  chemist"  of  the  de- 
partment of  agriculture,  disapproves 
of  the  appointment  of  Dr.  Carl  L.  Als- 
berg  as  his  successor  In  Washington. 
Dr.  Wiley  says  the  debasers  of  food 
will  rejoice  at  the  new  appointment. 
Dr.  Alsberg  was  chosen  by  Secretary  of 
Agriculture  Wilson,  and  approved  by 
President  Taft.  He  has  already  held 
some  notable  positions  in  this  coun- 
try. He  was  at  one  time  a  chemistrv 
Instructor  in  Harvard.  In  1906  he  was 
chief  biologist  of  the  bureau  of  plant 
industry  in  the  department  of  agricul- 
ture, where  he  achieved  considerable 
fame  as  an  expert.  He  is  a  German  by 
birth,  but  is  now  a  citizen  of  the 
United    States.

RAILROAD  CHIEFS  ACCUSED  OF  BREAKING  LAW 


Chicago,  Dec.  i3. — A  country-wide 
search  for  two  men  believed  to  be  the 
slayers  of  Joseph  H.  I^oerue,  diamond 
merchant,  who  was  murdered  In  his 
office  of  McVicktr's  Theater  building 
last  Friday,  was  begun  today.  Tele- 
grams were  sent  to  the  jpollce  of  every 
large  city  In-  the  United  States  and 
Canada,  giving  a  description  of  the 
two  men  sought. 

The  Chicago  police  assert  that  they 
are  convinced  that  the  ten  suspects 
now  being  held  had  nothing  to  do  with 
the  murder,  and  they  are  doubtful 
whether  they  can  b«  held  for  any  other 
robbery  In  Chicago. 

Following  is  a  description  of  the 
two  men  sought  by  the  police  In  con- 
nection  with   the   murder.

WOULD  bTaTnegroes 

FROM  THEU-  S.  ARMY 

Proposal  Is  to  Be  Discussed 
at  Meeting  of  Rank- 
ing Officers. 

Washington,  Dec.  23. — The  proposal 
to  eliminate  the  negro  as  an  Ameri- 
can soldier  is  a  topic  slated  for  con- 
sideration when  the  conference  of  the 
ranking  officers  of  the  army  Is  held 
here  Jan.   8. 

Some  officers  favoring  the  plan  are 
prepared  to  urge  It  on  the  ground  that  | 
in  the  Philippines  the  natives  are  said 
to  resent  the  appearance  among  them 
of  the  black  troopers,  and  that  there 
are  signs  of  dissatisfaction  in  Hawaii, 
owing  to  the  fact  th?A  the  Twenty- 
fifth  infantry,  a  negro  organization, 
has  been  ordered  to  the  Islands  to  form 
a  permanent  garrison. 

Friends  of  the  negro  soldiers  are 
preparing  to  make  a  strenuous  fight  in 
their  behalf,  pointing  to  their  splendid 
record  in  time  of  war  in  Cuba  and  in 
the   Philippines.

Attorney  for  Defense  at  In- 
dianapolis Says  Unions 
Oppose  It. 


Arguments  in  Big  Conspir- 
acy Trial  Are  Con- 
tinued. 


Indianapolis,  Ind.,  Dec.  23. — "Organ- 
ized labor  nevtr  did  and  never  will  ap- 
prove of  such  a  nation-wide  relgn  of 
violence  and!  terrorism  as  has  been 
charged  here,"  asserted  Clifford  S. 
Langsdale  In  arguing  to  the  jury  at 
the  "dynamite  conspiracy"  trial  today. 

Attorney  Langsdale  spoke  particu- 
larly in  behalf  of  W.  Bert  Brown  and 
William  J.  McCain  of  Kansas  City,  Mo., 
both  of  whom  were  charged  with  hav- 
ing guilty  kTOwledge  of  an  explosion 
on  a  bridge  in  construction  across  the 
Missouri  river.  Ortle  McManigal  said 
he  blew  up  the  work  in  August,  1910, 
after  James  B.  McNamara  had  visited 
Kansas  City. 

"It  has  been  shown  by  the  govern- 
ment," said  Hr.  Langsdale,  "that  James 
B.  McXamari  was  in  fealt  Lake  City, 
blowing  up  a  hotel  there  at  the  time 
It  was  charged  he  was  in  Kansas  City 
talking  to  Brown  and  McCain.  He  was 
too  busy  caiislng  .explosions  elsewhere 
to  have  been  in  Kansas  City." 
Attacked    Barber's    Story. 

The  attorney  attacked  the  testimony 
of  a  Kansas  City  barber,  who  had  said 
McNamara  and  Brown  had  invited  him 
to  become  a-  dynamiter,  offering  him 
good  pay  if  he  would  go  to  Dos  An- 
geles, "to  blow  up  the  whole  town." 
Mr.  Langsdale  said  it  had  been  shown 
that  the  ts.rber  did  not  live  at  the 
places  in  Kansas  City  where  he  said 
he   lived. 

Attorney  Daniel  V.  Howell  read  to 
the  jury  a  letter  from  John  J.  Mc- 
Namara to  McCain,  referring  to  the 
Iron  Workers'  union  "twilight  commit- 
tee." He  asserted  that  the  'twilight 
committee"'   simply  was   "a   joke." 

It  was  pointed  out  that  Brown,  the 
other  Kansas  City  defendant,  re- 
signed as  business  agent  two  days 
before  the  b  Idge  explosion.  Attorney 
Howell  said  Brown  would  not  have 
resigned  liad  he  expected  to  profit  by 
the  exploslor.

SEEK  BODJESOT 
OF  WRECK  VICTIMS 

Survivors  of  the  Atlantic 

Steamer  Florence  Are  in 

Bad  Condition. 

St.  John's.  N.  F.,  Dec.  23.— Search 
was  begun  today  for  the  bodies  of 
Capt.  Barr  and  the  twenty-one  mem- 
bers of  the  crew  of  the  steamer  Flor- 
ence, which  was  wrecked  Friday  on 
the  rocks  near  St.  Shotts.  News  of  the 
wreck  reached  here  last  night,  when 
Mate  J.  Hedley  and  two  members  of 
the  crew  arrived  at  Trepassev,  almost 
exhausted.  Two  other  seamen,  the 
only  other  purvlvors,  are  being  cared 
for  at  a  small  Isolated  settlement  a 
few  miles  from  St.  Shotts.  Their  con- 
dition   Is    serious. 

The  Florence  had  sunk  before  Mate 
Hedley  and  his  little  band  left  the 
cliffs,  upon  which  they  had  found  ref- 
uge Saturday  morning.  Most  of  the 
men  who  went  down  with  the  ship 
were  lashed  to  the  rigging.  The  sur- 
vivors stood  on  shore  unable  to  aid 
them. 

Capt.  Barr  and  the  entire  crew  made 
a  landing  on  a  shelf  of  rocks  soon 
after  the  vessel  struck,  but  ^he  high 
cliffs  on  all  sides  made  It  impossible 
for  them  to  escape  and  the  rising  tide 
compelled  them  to  return  to  the  shtp. 
Later  Mate  Hedley  and  four  of  the 
crew  took  a  small  boat  and  succeeded 
in  making  a  landing.  Before  others 
could  follow  them,  all  the  other  boats 
were  washed  away.  The  Florence  was 
bound  from   Halifax  to  St.  John's. 


OVER  200  DEAD  IN 

JAPANESE  MINE 

Explosion  in  Coal  Workings 

at  Sapporo  Probably 

Fatal  to  All. 

Toklo,  Dec.  23. — Over  200  Japanese 
coal  miners  were  entombed  and  are 
probably  dead  as  the  result  of  an  ex- 
plosion which  occurred  in  the  L'barl 
colliery  at  Sapporo,  on  the  island  of 
Hokkaido,   today. 

Of  the  200  and  more  men  who  were 
working  In  the  galleries  of  the  pit  at 
the  time,  only  three  were  brought  to 
the  surface  alive  and  the  officials  fear 
that  all  the  rest  have  perished. 


WHEAT  THAT  DEHES 
GOLD  IS^ISOOVERED 

New  Variety  of  Durum  Is 
Brought  From  South- 
eastern Russia. 

Washington,  Dec.  23. — A  new  variety 
of  durum  wheat  which  promises  to  be 
valuable  for  the  cereal  growers  of  the 

Noithwest  has  been  imported  by  th* 
department  of  agriculture.  It  comes 
from  Bezenshook,  Southeastern  Russia, 
where  It  was  originated  at  the  Russian 
governments   experiment    station. 

Frank  N.  Meyer,  agricultural  ex- 
plorer of  the  foreign  seed  and  plant 
introduction  division  of  the  depart- 
ment, discovered  the  new  wheat  last 
summer  during  his  trip  through  Cen- 
tral Asia.  He  describes  it  as  being  a. 
new  and  valuable  variety  of  black- 
bearded  durum  wheat,  having  very 
long,  open  ears.  It  Is  called  teiskaia 
and  is  proving  extremely  hardy,  hav- 
ing survived  snowless  winters,  when 
other  wheats  either  were  killed  or  se- 
verely injured.

ni'wly    appointed    pro- 

■  f    the    bo.ird    of    public 

ddSun.od    his    duties    and 


will  henceforth  take  oharffe  of  pris- 
oners who  pare  placed  on  probation 
I'rom   that   court. 

In  the  past  there  has  been  very  little 
opportunity  to  ascertain  whether  or 
not  thoste  who  were  given  clumces  to 
mend  their  ways  lived  up  to  their 
promises.  About  the  only  source  of 
Information  was  the  police  department. 
If  one  sot  so  bad  as  to  be  re-arrested 
the  Judfte  knew  that  he  or  she  had 
not  observed  tlie  provisions  under 
which  they  were  grlven  their  liberty. 
But  if  tliey  escaped  the  tolls  of  tlie 
bluecoats  or  left  town  the  court  was 
none  the  wiser  no  matter  how  well 
or  how  badly  they  conducted  them- 
selves. Now  it  will  be  different.  Be- 
ing- placed  on  probation  will  mean 
something:.  Probation  Officer  Hicks 
will  keep  track  of  all  who  are  re- 
leased on  their  pood  behavior  and  If 
they  f-ail  the  court  will  take  other 
steps    to    bring    them    to    time. 

This  morniner  Anton  Andler  was  ar- 
raigned on  a  charge  of  drunkenne.sa. 
Anton  is  an  old  offender.  Time  after 
time  he  has  gone  home  drunk  and 
driven  his  wife  and  family  out  of 
doors,   regardless   of   time   or   weather. 


Because  of  his  family  he  Ivas  some- 
times lueii  alluwtj  to  go.  This  morn- 
ing he  pleaded  guilty  to  drunkenness. 
The  court  turned  tho  ca.se  over  to  the 
probation  olYicer  and  continued  It  un- 
til tomorrow  for  sentence.  in  the 
meantime  the  piobation  officer  will 
make  a  thorough  investigation  of  the 
condition  at  the  Andler  home  and  will 
advise  with  tho  court  in  h^andllng  the 
case.

.Joseph  Arnold,  64  years  old.  the 
worst  dope  tlend  ever  picked  up  by  tlie 
police,  will  be  taken  into  probate  comt 
111  is  afternoon  or  tomorrow  to  be  ex- 
amined as  to  his  sanity.  He  has  twice 
been  sent  to  an  asylum  for  the  criminal 
insane  and  the  officials  are  of  the 
opinion  that  he  will  again  be  found  to 
be  mentally  unbalanced,  due  to  ex- 
cessive use  of  drugs.  Tlie  case  will 
then  come  under  the  jurisdiction  of 
tlie  state  board  of  control,  according 
to  Courtenay  Dinwiddle,  and  it  will  be 
up  to  that  body  to  determine  whether 
or  not  he  should  be  confined  to  a  state 
hospital  In  Minnesota  or  turned  over  to 
authorities  of  another  state.

"Hello  girls."  called  Carl  Palmquist 
to  two  young  women  who  were  walk- 
ing along  the  street  in  tlie  West  end 
yesterday. 

The  voung  women  hod  ftnlj'  time  to 
give  him  a  look  characterized  In 
stories  as  "daggers,"  when  Humane 
Officer  Bob  McKercher,  who  chanced  to 
be  walking  behind   them,   collared  him. 

Palmijuist  struggled  to  release  him- 
self and  two  men  who  were  with  him 
came  to  his  a.^slstance.  One  of  them 
started  to  help  him  break  the  officer's 
hold,  but  he  only  started.  The  husky 
humane  officer  tapped  him  on  the  chin 
and  ho  went  sprawling  into  a  snow- 
bank. 

In  police  court  this  morning  Palm- 
quist said  that  he  would  not  have 
acted  as  he  did  had  he  not  been  drunk. 
He  paid  a  tine  of  $7,  promising  that 
never  again  would  he  try  any  mashing 
stunts. 

Jennie  Schwantz  burst  into  tears  in 
police  court  this  morning  when  she  got 
sixty    days    In    the    county    Jail    after 


pleading  guilty  t9  third  offense  drunk- 
enness. Th»t  {3^h<"  sentence  fixed  bv 
statute  for  the  third  offense.  After 
Jennie  hasiserVed  her  time  she  will 
probably  rfturt  i  all  over  again,  and 
about  tho  'steenTh  time  Bhe  will  again 
be    booked    for   a    third   offense. 

Jennie's  'tPar#  'did  not  nave  the 
soothing  effect  Jivhich  is  generally 
credited  to  a  goad  cry.  Jennie  cried 
herself  into  a  mge.  The  more  she 
cried  tho  rD^ddac  she  got.  She  began 
by  being  A^^  I|t  herself  for  crying 
and  then  ski  crlid  herself  Into  curses. 
The  way  she  burned  up  the  atmosphere 
would  have  shamed  an  old  time  river 
hog  who  C}>uldji:t  spit  naturally  and 
comfortably,  'wltlfout   a    cuss    word.

Thomas  M'alsh  and  William  Fox 
have  been  hanging  about  the  Bowery 
so  long  that  even  the  barkeepers  and

Erick  Lundberg,  a  one-legged  man, 
hasn't  been  visible  in  the  grist  for 
some  time.  This  morning  he  re-ap- 
pearod  and  the  reason  appeared  with 
him.  He  had  been  holding  down  a  job 
In  the  mission  in  Superior.  But  he  got 
tired  of  earning  .a  living  in  a  respecta- 
ble manner  and  came  back  to  this  side 
of  the  bay.  For  a  week  or  two  he  has 
been  frequenting  his  old  haunts.  He 
didn't  seem  to  be  able  to  bring  him- 
self to  go  ba«k  to  work,  so  the  police 
arrested  1.1m  for  vagrancy.  This  morn- 
ing he  pleaded  guilty  and  got  |15  and 
costs  or  fifteen  daya  In  the  county  jail.

Joe  Robinskl  invited  Patrolman 
Dlckman  and  Telephone  Operator  For- 
restal  to  go  down  to  the  railroad  yards 
with  him  and  fight  when  he  met  the 
two  officers  on  the  Bowery  Saturday 
evening.  They  advised  him  to  go  take 
a  jump  In  the  lake,  or  words  to  that 
effect.  This  did  not  meet  with  Joe's 
approval  and  with  a  growl  he  snarled 
that  he  would  "fi.x"  both  of  them.  His 
hand  started  to  seek  his  hip  pocket, 
but  before  he  got  that  far  both  arms 
were  pinioned  to  his  side.  The  officers 
found  a  loaded  revolver  and  sent  him 
into  headquarters  on  a  charge  of  car- 
rying concealed  weapons.  He  pleaded 
guilty  and  didn't  have  a  word  of  ex- 
planation to  offer.  The  court  handed 
him  the  nice  little  Christmas  package 
of  three  months  in  the  county  jail.

August  Lowlen,  a  resident  of  Duluth 
for  thirty  years,  denied  In  police  court 
this  morning  that  he  was  guilty  of 
stealing  a  case  containing  a  dozen 
quarts  of  whisky  from  the  freight  shed 
of  the  Northern  Pacific.  His  trial  was 
set  for  Thursday.  The  special  who  ar- 
rested him  said  he  saw  him  leave  the 
sheds  with  the  case  of  booze  under 
his  arm.

The  squad  which  was  sent  from  the 
city  jail  to  the  county  bastlle  Satur- 
day earned  their  automobile  ride  in 
the  Black  Maria.  The  patrol  stuck  In 
a  snow  drift  and  the  prisoners  had  to 
get  out  and  dig  out  the  machine  be- 
fore they  could  continue  their  journey. 
The  four  sets  of  chains  on  the  wheels 
were  ripped  off  while  the  machine  was 
being  extricated.

THIRTEEN  KILLED 
IN  THEATER  PANIC 


Menin,  Belgium,  Dec.  23. — Thirteen 
are  dead  and  fifty  seriously  Injured 
as  a  fesult  of  the  fire,  which  burned 
down  a  cinematograph  theater  at  Bar- 
raques,  near  here,  last  night.  None  of 
the  audience  was  burned  to  death,  the 
medical  examination  of  the  bodies 
showing  that  deatli  in  every  case  was 
due  to  internal  hemorrhage  caused  by 
pressure    in    attempting   to    escape. 

The  panic  In  the  auditorium  was 
frightful.  The  theatre  was  capable  of 
accommodating  only  600  people  with 
comfort,  but  more  than  700,  Includ- 
ing many  children,  had  crowded  in. 
When  the  flames  broke  out,  some  of 
the  spectators  jumped  from  the  low 
balconies  on  the  heads  of  the  strug- 
gling mass  of  people  below.

ENGLISH  PHEASANTS 
AND  WILD  DUCKS 


Plan  Started  for  Restock- 
ing the  Country  With 
Game. 

New  York,  Dec.  23. — English  phea.s- 
ants  and  wild  mallard  ducks  have  re- 
cently been  sent  to  all  parts  of  the 
T'nited  States  by  the  American  Game 
Protective  and  Propagation  associa- 
tion. The  birds  were  distributed  free- 
ly to  members  of  the  association  who 
agreed  to  protect  them. 

These  shipments  are  the  first  to  be 
made  In  accordance  with  a  plan  for  re- 
stocking tlie  country  with  game 
through  the  establishment  of  sanctu- 
aries on  wliich  birds  can  increase  un- 
molested. The  overflow  from  these 
sanctuaries  will  provide  shooting  on 
contiguous  lands.  With  the  aid  of  its 
members  the  association  hopes  to  start 
Buch  refuges  in  every  suitable  com- 
munity by  supplying  the  birds  to  stock 
them. 

Although  only  pheasants  and  mal- 
lard duck.s  were  reared  last  summer  in 
sufficient  numbers  for  distribution,  ex- 


periments with  quail,  ruffed  grouse, 
wild  turkeys,  wood  ducks  and  Cana- 
dian geese  proved  very  satisfactory 
and  resulted  in  a  supply  of  these  birds 
from  which  it  is  hoped  that  enough 
can  be  raised  next  year  to  warrant 
sending  them  out.  Especial  attention 
is  being  given  to  the  native  upland 
birds,  and  if  success  with  quail  and 
grouse  continues,  they  will  In  time 
entirely  supplant  the  English  pheas- 
ants at  the  associations   farm.

DESERTS  TO  SPEND 
CHRISTMAS  AT  HOME. 

Escanaba.  Mich.,  Dec.  23. — The  dread 
of  spending  his  first  Christmas  day 
away  from  home  caused  Daniel  Mul- 
lane,  aged  23,  to  desert  from  the  United 
States  army  at  Fort  Cook,  Neb.  He 
walked  into  the  police  station  Satur- 
day and  gave  himself  up  to  Chief  of 
Police  Andrew  Iverson,  telling  him 
his  story  with  tears  running  down  his 
cheeks.  The  boy  left  Sunday  in  charge 
of  the  chief  of  police  for  Sault  Ste. 
Marie,  from  where  he  will  be  trans- 
ferred to  Fort  Cook  to  answer  to  the 
charge  of  desertion.  The  lad  was  a 
native  of  Massachusetts.

Pastor    Says  Christ  Will  Come 
Second  Time  as  a  Deliverer. 

"When  Christ  returns  to  earth  for 
the  second  time,  the  Jew  will  recog- 
nize In  him  the  Messiah  and  deliverer 
of  the  Hebrew  race,"  said  Rev.  J.  A. 
McGaughey  of  the  Second  Presbyterian 
church,  1515  "West  Superior  street.  In 
his  sermon  yesterday  morning  on  '*A 
Christmas  Prophecy." 

Rev.  Mr.  McGaughey  took  his  sermon 
from  the  many  prophecies  in  both  the 
old  and  new  testaments,  In  which 
return  of  Christ  is  assured.  That 
Savior  will  return  the  second  time, 
as  a  Savior,  but  as  a  deliverer,  is 
belief  of  Rev.  Mr.  McGaughey. 

"There  is  no  doubt,"  said  Rev.  Mr. 
McGaughey,  "that  there  are  many 
prophecies  not  yet  fulfilled  and  which 
will  be  when  Christ  returns  for  the 
second  time.  The  Jews  must  not  be 
criticized  for  refusing  to  accept  Christ 
as  their  Savior,  when  He  came  to 
earth  the  first  time.  They  had  ex- 
pected a  deliverer,  one  who  would 
bring  them  back  to  their  promised 
land,  but  He  was  only  a  sufferer, 
when  He  came  to  earth."

HOTEL  HOLLAND  CORNER 


London.  Dec.  23. — The  peace  confer- 
ence resumed  its  sittings  in  St.  James 
palace  this  afternoon.  The  plenipo- 
tentiai-ies  remained  together  only  a 
short  time.  Their  discussions  lasted 
not  quite  an  hour  and  a  half.  The 
next  session  will  be  held  on  Saturday 
morning. 

The  Turkish  delegates  did  not  insist 
today  on  the  revictuallying  of  the  for- 
tress of  Adrianople,  The  discussion, 
according  to  M.  Novakovitch  of  Servia, 
was  "fairly  amicable,"  and  the  pleni- 
potentiaries separated  hopeful  that 
next  Saturday's  reunion  would  produce 
something  more  definite. 

An  official  communication  issued  aft- 
er the  adjournment  had  been  taken 
said: 

"The  Ottoman  delegates  having  de- 
clared that  according  to  their  instruc- 
tions they  had  no  objection  to  treating 
with  the  delegates  of  the  allies,  includ- 
ing the  Hellenic  delegates,  the  allies 
presented  their  principal  proposals. 
The  Ottoman  delegates  reserved  their 
reply  for  the  next  sitting. 

The  territorial  proposals  which  the 
allied  Balkan  nations  presented  .were 
as   follows: 

"The  iniraediate  surrender  of  Scutari, 
Adrianople  and  Janina,  full  military 
lienors  to  be  accoi-ded  to  the  garrisons. 
The  evacuation  by  Turkey  of  tlie 
Balkan  peninsula  as  far  as  the  eastern 
end  of  the  Tchatalja  lines,  the  delim- 
itation to  be  made  on  the  spot. 

The  cession  to  Greece  of  all  the 
Aegean  lands.  Including  Rhodes,  and 
eleven  others  now  being  kept  by  Italy 
as  pledges  of  the  fulfillment  by  Tur- 
key of  the  terms  of  the  treaty  of  Lau- 
sanne. 

The  annextaion  of  Crete  to  Greece. 
The    payment    by    Turkey    of    a    war 
indemnity,    as    well     as    the    expenses 
sustained   by   the   allies   on   account   of 
the   Ottoman   prisoners. 

The  question  of  the  revictualling  of 
the  fortress  of  Adrianople  has  been 
left  for  discussion  between  the  Turk- 
ish and  Bulgarian  delegates. 


ARE  FIRMS 
COMBINED? 

Believed  That  Two  Whole- 
sale Houses  Have  Been 
Merged. 


A  i:  • ''ting  of  the  directors  of  the 
Gokvu.--reyton-Congdon  company  was 
held  this  morning  to  discuss  the  mat- 
ter oi"  inlying  in  the  Wriglit-Clarkson 
Met  oaMiU'  company.  combining  the 
two  wholesale  grocery  houses,  re- 
capitalizing   them,    and    making    them 

one    grtat    wholesale    house. 

But  little  can  be  learned  and  there 
is  nothing  definite,  but  what  can  be 
lean.vi    indicates    that    the    deal    was 


voted  on  favorably.  On  Saturday  the 
board  of  directors  of  the  Wright- 
Clarkson  company  met  and  voted  upon 
the  same  matter.  The  result  at  that 
meeting  was  a  favorable  ballot.  It  was 
predicted  a  few  days  ago  that  there 
would  be  an  adverse  vote  in  the  meet- 
ing today,  but  while  nobody  connected 
with  the  matter  will  say  just  what  was 
done,  the  hint  given  out  is  that  the 
vote  w-as  not  adverse.  It  is  expected 
tliat  the  combination  will  take  place 
and  that  the  efforts  of  C.  A.  Congdon, 
who.  with  T.  F.  Cole,  has  bought  a 
controlling  interest  in  the  Gowan-Pey- 
tone-Congdon  company,  to  buy  the 
other   company   are   successful. 

The  effort  to  absorb  also  the  Twohy- 
Eimon  company  of  Superior  proved 
fruitless.

BOY  AND  MILUTH 

WOMAN  IN  CELLS 

Mrs.  Ruth  Ellis  and  Sam 

Kaufman  Taken  Back 

to  St.  Paul. 

St.  Paul.  Minn.,  Dec.  23. — Sammy 
Kaufman,  three  days  ago  on  his  way 
to  California  to  spend  the  winter  with 
Mrs.  Ruth  Ellis  of  Duluth,  with  whom 
he  had  eloped,  returned  to  St.  Paul  to- 
day a  repentant  young  pliilosopher. 
Detective  Ben  Waters  of  the  local  po- 
lice department,  brought  the  boy  and 
Mrs.  Ellis  back  from  Chicago,  where 
they  had  been  arrested  with  $2,100 
worth  of  jewel  ?ry  taken  from  the  store 
of  Meyer  Kaufman.  Sammy's  father, 
344    Sibley    street. 

"Every  man  finds  a  woman  some- 
times or  othei,"  philosophized  Samuel 
through  the  tars  of  a  cell  at  police 
headquarters,  "for  whom  he'd  go  to 
hell!  Ruth  was  the  woman  in  my 
case.  I'm  not  blaming  her.  I  lost  my 
head!  I  didn't  even  stop  to  think!  We 
beat    it!" 

Both  Kaufman  and  Mrs.  Elli.-?  were 
locked  up  with  a  tab  charge  of  grand 
larceny  agalnsit  them.  She  gave  her 
age   as    23.      He    is    19. 

"I  was  so  crazy  about  her,"  Sammy 


continued,  "that  only  one  thing  stayed 
in  my  mind.     That   was  to  get  her. 

"Don't  blame  Ruth.  She  has  stood 
by  me  and  played  square.  I'm  going 
to  stand  by  her  and  see  that  she  geta 
out   of   thi.s   scrape." 

Mrs.  Eilis,  locked  in  the  woman's 
quarters,  talked  franklv  of  the  af- 
fair. 

"I  was  partly  to  blame."  she  said. 
"I  know  1  should  not  have  gone  with 
him,  but  he  urged  me  so!  I  knew  he 
had  the  jewelr.v.  but  he  told  me  he 
was  a  member  of  the  firm,  and  that  he 
had  a  right  to  take  it.  We  Intended 
going  to  California  and  perhaps  start- 
ing a   store   there." 

Mrs.  Ellis"  lite  atory  Is  pathetic.  Mar- 
ried at  tlie  age  of  17  to  a  man  in 
Colorado,  he  mistreated  her  for  sev- 
eral years  until  he  was  arrested  for 
forgery  and  sentenced  to  a  long  term 
in  the  Colorado  state  prison,  she  saya. 
In  Duluth,  where  her  mother  lives, 
and  in  St.  Paul  and  Minneapolis  she 
was  unable  to  make  a  living  for  her- 
self and  a  little  child. 

"I  don't  care  much  what  becomes  of 
me."  she  said,  "but  I  hope  my  mother 
will  not  hear  of  it.  I  hope  she  does 
not  come  down  here.  It  will  break 
her  heart." 

Mrs.  Ellis  said  she  and  Kaufman 
were  not  married,  and  did  not  intend 
to  be.  unless  she  could  get  a  divorce 
from  her  husband  after  they  arrived 
in  California. 

The  couple  probably  will  be  ar- 
raigned in  police  court  tomorrow.  It  ia 
not  likely  that  the  fatlier  of  the  boy 
will  push  the  charges  against  either 
of    the    prisoners.

Standpatters  of  Senate  Combine  to  Take  Ap- 
pointment of  Committees  Out  of  Lieutenant 
Governor's  Hands— Axel  Ringborg  of  Bagley 
Is  Candidate  for  Register  of  Crookston  Land 
Office— Stirrup  Club  Agrees  on  I.  and  R.  Bill. 


Senate  Combine.  ] 

A  nenate  combine  to  take  the  ap- 
pointment of  committees  out  of  the 
hands  of  Lieutenant  Governor  Burn- 
quiet  Is   being  made. 

Senator  George  H.  Sullivan  of  Still- 
water and  Senator  F.  A.  Duxbury  of 
Caledonia,  reactionary  leaders  in  the 
the  senate,  are  the  visible  heads  of 
the  combine.  Though  they  vigorously 
deny  any  outeide  interference,  the 
connbine  has  something  about  it  that 
smacks  of   K.   E.  Smith's  genius. 

Senators  Sullivan  and  Duxbury.  in 
a  statement  given  out  at  St.  Paul 
yesterday,  claim  they  have  a  majority 
of  the  senate  and  that  they  will  put 
their  deal  through.  They  say  they 
have  been  Joined  by  many  Demo- 
crats. 

Senator  II.  W.  Cheadle  of  Duluth  Is 
one  luim-crat  who  is  credited  In  the 
Twin  Citus  with  being  in  the  com- 
bination, but  Senator  Cheadle  said  to- 
day he  has  given  no  pledge  and  is  not 
committed  eitlier  way.  Senator  Pugh 
is  also  credited   to  the  combination. 

The  combination  ie  obviously  an  at- 
tempt to  block  progressive  legisla- 
tion. Lieutenant  Governor-elect  Burn- 
qulst  is  a  progressive,  who  will  ap- 
point committees  that  will  report  out 
progressive  legislation.  The  attempt 
to  take  the  power  of  appointing  com- 
mittees out  of  his  hands  can  have  no 
other  purpose  than  to  prevent  pro- 
gressive legislation  from  getting  to 
the  floor  of  the  senate  in  such  form 
that  it  will  be  acceptable  to  pro- 
gressives and   to   the   people. 

Most  of  the  st-nators  reported  to  be 
Included  in  the  combination  have  nev- 
er been  counted  as  progressives  and 
n»any  of  them  have  been  reputed  to  be 
Intimately  connected  with  Ed  Smith 
and  the  Interests  of  which  he  is  pop- 
ularly supposed  to  be  the  represen- 
tative  in   state   politics. 

A  similar  movement  was  started 
among  the  hovi.se  standpatters  earlier 
this  year,  but  it  was  droppetLwhen  the 
progressive  control  of  the  house  was 
asserted  by  the  choice  of  Henry  Rines 
for  speaker.  The  progressives  in  the 
St  rate  are  not  relatively  so  strong 
as  in  the  house  and  the  reactionaries 
are  counting  on  that  fact  to  put  their 
deal    through. 

The  Democrats  are  evidently  being 
drawn  Into  tiie  combine  by  promisep 
'>f  committee  appointments.  Some  of 
them  will  probably  see  the  error  of 
their  ways  when  they  iiear  from  pro- 
gressive Democratic  constituencies,  and 
the  early  publicity  given  the  plan  may 
block   It. 

The  deal  Is  an  obvious  effort  to 
override  the  people's  will.  Biirnquist 
was  elected  b«  cause  he  Is  progressive 
<'nd  because  his  position  as  presiding 
officer  of  the  senate  would  be  an  aid 
to  progressive  legislation.  The  effort 
to  defeat  the  people's  will  will  not  be 
looked    upon    kindly    over    the    state.

'Wants    Land    Office    Place. 

Axel  lUngborg  of  Baglej-,  register 
of  dteds  of  Clearwater  county,  is  a 
candidate  for  register  of  the  land  of- 
fice at  Crookston  and  his  name  will 
be  presented  for  appointment  by  Presi- 
dent   Wilson. 

Mr.  Ringborg  Is  said  to  have  strong 
Indorsement  from  Democrats  of  •  the 
Ninth  district.  He  is  well  known  over 
the  state  and  many  men  outside  of  his 
congressional  district  will  support  his 
candidacy.  He  was  elected  register  of 
i^eeds  of  Clearwater  county  six  years 
ago,  being  the  first  Democrat  ever 
elected  to  that  office  in  the  county,  and 
he  has  been  re-elected  at  the  three 
succeeding   elections. 

Frank  Jeffers  of  Red  I^ake  Falls  is 
also   understood  to  be  a  candidate  for 

register    of    the    Crookston    land    office.

Ivemon   For   State   Land  Tax. 

The  plan  of  the  Northern  Minnesota 
Development  association  to  have  a 
state  appropriation  made  to  cover  the 
amount  that  would  be  assessed  as 
taxes   against   state   land   If   they   were 


OUT  FOR  REGISTER  OF 
CROOKS!  ON  lAND  OFFICE 


of  the  state  and  for  the  initiative  on  8 
per  cent  petition,  the  total  number  for 
the  referendum  never  to  exceed  20,000 
and  the  total  number  for  the  Initiative 
never   to  exceed  25.000. 

The  bill  will  not  provide  for  the  sub 
mission  of  any  measures  to  referendum

tlie  principle  that  the  legislature 
might  adopt  that  method  of  evading 
responsibility. 

It  will  provide  that  statutory  meas- 
ures may  be  adopted  by  a  majority  of 
all  those  voting  on  the  proposition,  but 
that  constitutional  amendments  must 
have  a  majority  of  all  voting  at  the 
election,  as  at  present.  Constitutional 
amendments  may  be  initiated,  undor 
the   bill. 

The  agreement  is  believed  to  be  such 
that  all  real  friends  of  direct  legislation 
will  be  able  to  accord  with  it.  Those 
who  favor  Inordinately  high  percent- 
ages are  for  the  most  part  men  who 
are  not  really  friendly  to  the  initiative 
and  referendum,  but  appear  to  bow  to 
public   sentiment.

State  Auditor  S.  G.  Iverson,  who  is 
intimately  acquainted  with  the  handi- 
cap placed  on  development  by  the  ex- 
eniption  of  state  lands  from  taxation, 
lias  come  out  in  favor  of  the  plan.  Mr. 
Iverson  has  found  that  the  sale  of 
state  lands  is  greatly  restricted  by 
the  fact  that  settlers  must  pay  all  of 
the  cost  of  roads  and  schools  in  town- 
ships where  jnuch  state  land  Is  located. 

At  the  1911  session  of  the  legislature 
an  appropriation  of  |50,000  was  made 
for  rural  school  aid  on  the  basis  of  3 
cents  per  acre,  with  the  provision  that 
no  township  should  obtain  more  than 
$250.  At  the  coming  session  a  much 
larger  appropriation  will  be  asked,  in 
order  that  roads  as  well  as  school" 
may  be  given  aid  on  the  basis  of  state 
land  acreage.

practical  dictator  of  Venezuela,  and  his 
disregard  for  every  representation 
made  by  the  American  minister  in  tlie 
interest  of  Americans  who  held  val- 
uable concessions,  incensed  tlie  state 
department  against  him. 

Furthermore,    there  has  been  a   tacit 

understanding    that    American     Influ-

the     government    of    President    Gomez 

now  enjoys. 

Officials  of  the  Immigration  service, 
who,  it  has  been  suggested,  might 
prevent  the  landing  of  the  ex-president

Paris,  Dec.  23. — The  Matin  prints  an 
amusing  account  of  the  adventures  In 
P2urope  of  Cipriano  Castro,  the  ex- 
presldent  of  Venezuela.  "When  he  ar- 
rived at  Antwerp  he  found  twenty  de- 
tectives waiting  for  him.  They  dogged 
him  with  varying  luck  to  Brussels 
and    thence    to    Paris. 

The  ex-president  eluded  the  detec- 
tives several  times  with  great  astute- 
ness. When  he  arrived  in  Paris  he 
thought  he  had  managed  to  conceal 
his  identity,  but  soon  afterward  he 
became  involved  In  a  quarrel  in  a  cafe 
and  demolished  considerable  crockery 
with  his  cane.  The  police  were  called 
in  and   Castro's  Identity  was  disclosed. 

It  is  believed  Castro  came  to  Paris 
for  the  purpose  of  fomenting  an  in- 
surrection in  Venezuela,  but  finding 
that  he  was  not  successful  in  this, 
decided  to  go  to  the  United  States. 
Castro  is  aboard  the  steamer  La  Tou-

GETS  GOOD  SALARY. 

Sheriff  of  Morton  County,  N.  D.,  to 
Get  About  $3,000. 

Mandan,  N.  D.,  Dec.  23.— (Special  to 
The  Herald.) — 'U'hile  the  pay  of  th»» 
sheriffs  will  be  much  less  under  the 
new  law,  effective  Jan  1,  than  under 
the  old  system.  Sheriff  McDonald  of 
Morton  county  will  be  able  to  draw  a 
salary  of  about  $3,000,  which  will  be 
the  third  largest  in  the  state.  Only 
Cass  and  Grand  Forks  counties  will 
pay  more. 

I'nder  the  new  law  the  sheriffs  are 
paid  in  proportion  to  the  population  of 
the  counties,  allowed   mileage   and  ex- 

Fenses  on  trips,  and  the  counties  pay 
or  the  deputies. 
Under  the  old  law  all  the  fees  of  the 
office  went  to  the  sheriffs  and  in  some 
counties  the  salaries  were  enormous. 
One  year  Cass  county,  in  which  Fargo 
is  located,  is  reported  to  have  netted 
its  sheriff  $30,000.  That  was  many 
years  ago  when  there  were  many  sales 
under  the  old  Woods  law.

fctand  up,  but  reeled  and  fainted  and 
the  officials  who  gathered  around  had 
much  difficulty  in  removing  him  from 
the  elephant's  back.  The  howdah  in 
which  he  and  Lady  Hardlnge  had  been 
seated   was   blown   into  matchwood. 

The  viceroy  soon  will  be  able  to 
leave  the  hospital  for  the  viceregal 
lodge. 

The  bomb  thrower  has  not  yet  beeji 
caught.  A  reward  of  lO.OfljO  rupees 
(approximately  $3,300)-  has  been  of- 
fered for  his  arrest. 

The  viceroy  was  making  entry  In 
state  into  Delhi  as  the  last  of  th<; 
ceremonies  in  connection  with  the 
transfer  of  the  capital  from  Calcutta 
to  Delhi.  The  transfer  was  made  in 
October,  last,  tut  Lord  Hardlnge  was 
not  to  take  formal  possession  of  his 
new   quarters   until   today. 

Bomb   Hurled   From  Honaetop. 

A  large  gathering  of  troops,  of- 
ficials and  Punjab  chiefs  was  present 
to  welcome  the  viceregal  party.  Its 
splendid  elephant  processloa  had  just 
left  the  railway  station,  passing 
through  Chandal  Chowk,  when  the 
bomb  was  thrown.  It  was  hurled  by  a 
man  standing  on  a  housetop,  and  it 
struck  the  howdah  in  which  were  Lord 
and  Lady  Hardinge.  The  attendant 
holding  a  large  parasol  over  the  vice- 
regal pair  was  instantly  klllfed. 

The  viceroys  parasol  bearer  had 
been  killed  outright  and  another  at- 
tendant seriously  wounded  by  frag- 
ments  of    the    bomb. 

Ceremonlea  Renamed. 

The  ceremonies  were  interrupted  for 
only  a  short  period,  while  the  viceroy 
anti  vicereine  v.ere  being  conveyed  to 
the  hospital  and  viceregal  residence 
respectively. 

Sir  Guy  Fleetwood  "Wilson,  financial 
member  of  the  council  of  the  governor 
general  of  India,  tooit  the  viceroy's 
place  in  the  procession,  which  then 
proceeded  on  its  way  through  the  new 
imperial  city  to  the  Durbar  camp, 
where  a  great  number  of  rajas  and 
other  Indian  chieftains  were  gathered. 
Sir  Guy  then  took  up  his  position  in 
front  of  the  viceregal  dais  and  read 
aloud  a  dispatch  from  Baron  Hardiiig«, 
saying  that  he  was  only  slightly  In- 
jured. The  reading  of  the  message 
was  received  with  prolonged  cheering. 

The  attempt  on  Baron  Hardlnge's 
life  roused  feelings  of  intense  indigna- 
tion, both  among  the  natives  and  the 
British  officials  present,  as  he  is  one  of 
the  most  popular  men  who  have  ever 
ruled  in  India.  For  a  long  period  there 
had  been  a  lull  In  the  native  agitation 
which  had  at  various  times  led  to  as- 
sassinations of  high  officials.  The  at- 
tack on  Baron  Hardinge  by  a  fanatic 
therefore  came  with  great  unexpected- 
ness. 

Expected  Xo  Tronble. 

Only  a  snoi  t  time  ago  the  viceroy 
himself  wrote  to  the  India  office  in 
London    saying    that    the    country    was

quiet  and  that  the  urospects  for  his 
official  entry  into  Delhi  were  most  fa- 
vorable. 

The  bomb  was  thrown  as  the  great 
procession  was  passing  through  the 
Cliandai  Chowk,  which  Is  along,  nar- 
row, typical  Oriental  street  containing 
many  merchandising  places.  The  stores 
are  mostly  one-story,  but  some  of  them 
rise  to  the  height  of  two  stories.  A 
street  car  line  runs  the  whole  length  of 
the  Chandal  Chowk,  but  because  of 
the  importance  of  (he  day's  event  tlie 
service   had   been   susperided. 

The  viceroy's  elephant  was  an  enor- 
mous animal.  The  driver  sat  between 
his  ears,  guiding  him  in  the  usual  na- 
tive way  by  tapping  hlwi  on  the  for.j- 
head  with  a  steel  spike.  Behind  the 
driver  was  the  great  howdah,  a  box- 
like construction  fixed  on  th©  el<». 
phant's  saddle.  The  howdah  was  cov- 
ered \vlth  imperial  purple  draplnjfs 
decorated  with  gold  lace  and  tasseLs. 
In  It  were  seated  the  viceroy  and 
vicereine,  and  at  their  backs  stood  an- 
other   native    attendant,    holding    over 


their  heads  the  great  parasol  which  In- 
dicates the  royal  dignity.  »,„„,«-, 

Owing  to  the  lowness  of  the  houses 
In  the  Chandal  Chowk,  the  assassin, 
who  stood  on  one  of  the  roofs,  was 
only  a  few  feet  from  the  viceroy  and 
vicereine.  The  bomb,  which  was  evi- 
dently intended  to  explode  by  concus- 
sion, burst  with  terrific  force.  The 
native  holding  the  umbrella  was  blown 
from  his  position  and  instantly  klUed. 
while  the  driver  sitting  in  front  of  the 
howdah  was  v.'ounded  in  eight  places. 
Escaped  as  By  Miracle. 

The  escape  of  Baron  and  Lady  Har- 
dinge was  well-nigh  miraculous.  The 
missile  fell  only  a  foot  or  two  from  its 
target.  The  great  procession  immedi- 
ately came  to  a  standstill  and  a  crowd 
of  officials  rushed  up  and  found  the 
viceroy  bleeding  and  pale,  while  the 
vicereine  was  terribly  shaken. 

The  police  immediately  surrounded 
the  house  from  which  the  bomb  was 
thrown,  and  made  several  arrests.  All 
the  outlets  from  the  city  were  placed 
under  strict  guard. 

Today's  celebration  marked  the  car- 
rying out  of  the  announcement  that 
the  king  had  made  during  the  great 
coronation  durbar  of  the  transfer  of 
the  imperial  capital  of  India  to  Delhi. 

Since  that  announcement  was  made, 
the  viceroy,  who  had  been  created 
Baron  Hardlnge  on  his  appointment  to 
office,    has   been   busy   vls-itlng   various 

?arts  of  the  country  and  has  been  able 
o  pay  only  a  few  flying  visits  to  Delhi 
to  inspect  the  preparations  for  the  ad- 


vent  of   the  go'.'ernment  into   the   new 
Imperial  city.

Al«va>a    Have    Poor. 

'There  are  always  poor  people, 
said  KnsiRn  Graham  of  the  SalV'Ution 
Army  "and  the  army  never  overlooks 
elaborate  preparations  for  their  care. 
We  solicit  the  submitting  o£  the 
names  of  worthy  people  by  persons  or 
reputation,  and  gladly  t-ake  occasion 
to  look  after  these  on  the  day  of  our 
Savior's  birth.  This  year  we  expect 
to  send  out  over  100  baskets,  each 
basket  containing  enough  for  meals 
for  the  dav  for  tlve  people.  We  would 
like  reputable  people  to  send  in  more 
names,  'and  we  will  agree  to  look 
after  them.  We  will  take  care  of 
about   r>00   people." 

Mis.s  Meeker  of  the  Associated  Char- 
itiea  said  todav  that  about  260  fam- 
ilies will  be  taken  care  of  through 
that  otYke.  She  swys  that  there  are 
not  nearly  as  many  looking  for  char- 
itv  as  last  year  and  .says  that  it  is 
almost  solely  those  who  are  sick  or 
too  old  to  work  who  have  made  rap- 
plication.  Some  she  finds  are  too 
proud  to  report  their  needs,  and  It  Is 
onlv  through  'acQuaintances  or  neigh- 
bor's who  know  the  conditions  that 
thev  are  learned  about.  This,  she 
hope.*;,  will  be  done  away  with.  Needy 
one  who  report  for  help,  are  investi- 
gated, but  the  matter  is  kept  wholly 
contidential. 

D.  McKercher  of  the 
society  says  that  his 
not  been  besieged  as 
as  formerly  because 
conditions  that  exist. 
He  expects  to  aid  in  assisting  between 
tl-.irty  and  fifty  families  but  says  that 
a  number  of  homesteaders  in  the  coun- 
ty have  had  to  be  looked  after  because 
of  unfortunate  conditions  which  have 
assailed  them.  Some  of  them  started 
in  with  next  thing  to  no  money  and 
have  been  living  from  hand  to  mouth. 
Frosts  killed  a  good  deal  of  their  crop 
and  got  a  lot  of  their  vegetables  after 
they  had  been  stored,  owing  to  a  lack 
of  proper  facilities  for  .storing  it.

and  that  this  list  will  be  all  that  will 
be  looked  after  during  the  Christmas 
sea'^on.

Shogran,  "but,  of  course,  when  any

worthy,  wi»  are  glad  to  help,  and  that 
is  only  doing  our  duty.  Tliis  year  the 
list  is  much  lighter  than  usual,  owing 
to  the  better  working  and  health  con- 
ditions. Ordinarily  at  the  poor  farm 
and  at  the  hospital  we  have  »iulte  a 
number  of  cases  of  typhoid  among  the 
poor,  but  this  year  we  have  none.  Our 
list  of  consumptives  Is  cut  about  in 
lialf  also.  Tlie  year  has  been  health- 
ier and  the  work  has  been  more  plen- 
tiful. These  facts  have  served  to  keep 
down    the   list." 

At  the  Bethel,  anybody  who  Is  real- 
ly needy  and  homeless  will  be  taken 
care  of.  but  tiie  charitable  end  is  not 
eni'ouraged. 

•Dependency,"  said  W,  .T.  McCabe, 
one  of  tl»e  board  of  directors,  "Is  a 
thing  which  we  do  not  encourage.  We 
make  the  prices  not  only  at  cost,  but 
below  that.  A  man  may  have  a  bed 
and  bath  for  a  week  at  90  cents,  and 
have  quarters  for  sleeping,  eating  and 
reading  of  exceptional  cleanliness. 
However,  where  a  man  Is  not  quite 
fit  for  work  yet,  he  is  given  accommo- 
dation. Tliere  will  be  a  few  at  the 
Bethel  on  Christmas  and  they  will  be 
taken    care    of." 

The  Masonic  Bachelors  have  ar- 
ranged to  take  care  of  In  the  neghbor- 
hood  of  sixty-five  to  seventy  children 
ranging  from  8  months  to  15  years  of 
age.  Tile  money  contributed  by  the 
Masonic  Bachelors  is  being  used  to 
purchase  clotlting  for  these  children, 
and  what  is  left  over  will  be  used  to 
buv  toys  and  candies  for  them,  giving 
them  a  toiuh  of  luxury  as  well  as 
supplying  them  with  the  necessities. 
The  cases  are  those  reported  upon  by 
Miss  Heikklla,  the  nurse  in  charge  of 
the  welfare  department  of  the  consis- 
tory. 

The  Klks.  as  u.sual,  are  doing  an 
enormous  work,  and,  as  usual,  refuse 
to  talk  about  it.  Jolm  Doran  is  chair- 
man of  the  committee  having  the  work 
in  charge,  and  this  morning  he  re- 
fused to  discuss  It.     Said  he: 

"It  Is  against  the  principles  of  Klk- 
dom  to  tell  about  any  charitable  work 
we  mav  happen  to  be  carrying  on.  We 
may  boast  about  the  size  of  our  lodges 
and  of  the  good  times  we  have,  but  one 
tiling  we  do  not  mention  is  the  work 
of  charity.  It  is  one  of  the  chief 
things  of  Elkdom  to  try  to  make  our- 
selves and  other.s  happy.  We  are  try- 
ing now   as  we  always  do."

1912. 


Duluth's  shopping  district  never 
before  saw  such  a  crowd  as  it  held 
Saturday. 

From  early  Saturday  morning  until 
late  Saturday  night,  people  of  all 
sizes  and  ages;  people  with  money 
and  people  without  money;  people  who 
live  in  Duluth  and  people  from  outsidj 
of  the  city;  people  with  loads  of  bun- 
dles and  people  loading  up  with  bun- 
dles; people  of  all  grades  and  all  con- 
ditions of  life  crowded  through  the 
streets  and  through  the  stores,  gettinis 

ready  for  Christmas  day. 

It  was  a  crowd  worth  watching. 
The  Christmas  spirit  was  shown  every- 
where. There  was  little  111  nature. 
Here  and  there  was  an  exposition  of 
the  true  spirit  of  Christmas,  as  strong 
men  helped  a  feeble  little  woman  or  a 
child  through  the  press.  The  pots  of 
the  Salvation  Army  were  kept  boiling 
at  every  corner.  The  salespeople  were 
busy  but  their  work  was  lightened  by 
a  good-natured  tolerance  for  the  rush 
of  business  that  prevented  immediato 
attendance. 

Money  flowed  Into  the  offices  of  the 
stores.  It  was  a  buying  crowd,  and 
with  few  exceptions,  every  man,  wom- 
an and  child  had  money  to  spend.  Tl-c 
Christmas  stocks  that  were  kept  .as 
complete  as  possible  all  •through  tho 
rush  were  well  picked  over  Saturday 
and  needed  repletion  today. 

The  trains  coming  Into  the  city 
brought  thousands  from  the  towns 
nearby  to  swell  the  crowds  of  Duluih 
people  already  out  to  wind  up  their 
Chri-stmas   shopping. 

Early  Saturday  morning,  those  anx- 
ious to  avoid  the  crowds  were  out. 
Shortly  after  noon  the  semblance  of  a 
rush  began  to  appear  and  by  the  mid- 
dle of  the  afternoon  the  days  shop- 
ping v.'as  at  its  lieight.  There  was  a 
little  let-up  during  the  dinner  hour, 
but  early  In  the  evening  the  crowds 
began  to  assume  wonderful  propor- 
tions. The  streets  were  black  with 
people.  The  stores  were  jammed  to 
the  doors.  Progress  through  the 
crowds  was  difficult,  but  everybody 
seemed  to  be  on  the  move.  It  was  a 
carnival  crowd  engaged  In  a  carnival 
of   Christmas   shopping. 

The  union  depot  at  train  time  wa.s 
a  sight.  The  big  building  was  jammed 
with  people,  each  person  carrying  bun- 
dles. Every  outgoing  train  had  stand- 
ing roohm  only,  although  several 
coaches  were   added  to  every  train. 

Todav  and  tomorrow  are  the  wind- 
up  days.  Big  crowds  will  be  out 
again.  The  stores  will  draw  big 
crowds  of  people  who  have  not  yet 
completed  their  shopping,  while  many 
others,  led  by  the  Christmas  spirit,  will 
take  in  the  cabaret  shows  and  the 
hotel  cafes,  reveling  In  the  light  and 
music  and  the  Christmas  charm. 

This  has  been  the  greatest  Christmas 
shopping  season  in  the  history  of  I>u- 
luih.  It  will  end  tomorrow  night,  and 
people  will  turn  to  their  homes  to  en- 
joy  Christmas   day   by   their   firesides.

bringing  about  the  sale  of  6.l!»0  shares 
in  the  Virginia  &  Rainy  Lake  company

The  petition  recites  that  Weyer- 
haeuser paid  Cook  $126  a  share  for 
this  stock,  or  $778,680.  Mr.  MacMillan 
asserts  that  he  was  promised  a  com- 
mission of  $5  a  share  by  Cook,  or  $30,- 
900,  which,  with  interest  and  costs, 
brings  the  claim  up  to  the  amount  of 
the  suit.  The  sale  was  consummated, 
it  is  said,  June  15,  1911.  The  Lorimer 
investigation  was  then  being  con- 
ducted  by   the   United   States  senate.

in  the  suit,  declined  to  discuss  it  today,

witness   in    the    Lorimer    case.

Duluth's  best  boosters  are  headed  lor

They  see  Duluth  only  two  or  three 
times  a  year,  but  they  talk  Duluth  all 
through  the  year,  day  in  and  day  cut, 
from  Portland,  Or.,  to  Portland,  Me., 
and  from  Alaska  to  somewhere  down 
along  the  Southern  Iowa  line. 

They  are  the  traveling  representa- 
tives of  Duluth  wholesale  houses,  and 
they  are  the  best  advertisers  Duluth 
has. 

The  annual  house  conferences  are 
held  during  holiday  week,  when  there's 
nothing  doing  in  a  business  way  on 
the  road.  The  traveling  salesmen  then 
come  into  town  to  meet  the  heads  of 
the  houses,  talk  shop  and  partake  of 
the   hospitality  of  their  employers. 

Almost  every  night  after  Christnas 
a  crowd  will  gather  at  the  Commcn:ial 
club  for  a  dinner  as  guests  of  tlio 
"house."  other  crowds  will  be  at  the 
theaters  as  guests  of  the  same  general 
host  Every  house  cultivates  the  good 
will  as  well  as  the  salesmanship  of 
its  employes,  and  the  road  men  are 
always  welcomed  with  open  arms  and 
sent  forth  again  believing  that  their 
house  is  the  best,  and  that  Duluth  is 
the     best    town    to    represent    ou    the 

'^^Many  of  the  traveling  salesmen  make 
their  homes  in  Duluth.  and  they  are 
already  in  to  spend  Christmas  with 
their  families.  Others  have  homes  at 
their  headquarters,  and  they  will  turn 
toward  Duluth  after  the  Christmas 
dinner  at  home.  Thursday  and  1?  riday 
Duluth  will  be  flooded  with  traveling 
salesmen,  who  will  get  new  material 
with  which  to  sell  goods  and  make 
Duluth  better  known. 

T^e  Kelley-How-Thomson  company 
will*  have  over  fifty  men  in  the  <:lty 
Thursday,  Friday  and  Saturday  of  this 
week  Thursday  night  the  men  will  be

a  party  at  the  Orpheum  theater.  Dur- 
ing the  business  hours  of  the  three 
lavs,  house  conferences  will  be  held. 

The  men  who  travel  out  for  the 
Stone-Ordesun-W^Us  company  and  make 
their  homes  in  Duluth  are  already  ar-

Word  conies  from  Cleveland  that  not 
for  many  years  have  vessel  managers 
had  so  much  ore  offered  them  by  sin- 
gle firms  as  has  been  the  case  since 
chartering  for  next  season  was  started 
Tuesday.  Ships  that  have  never  car- 
ried ore  for  some  firms  will  next  year 
liaul  large  amounts  ror  these  com- 
panies. 

In  the  chartering  that  has  been  done 
so  far  managers  have  been  asked  how 
much  they  will  be  able  to  carry  rather 
than  being  told  they  can  have  a  speci- 
fied amount.  Some  of  tlie  largest 
shippers  have,  the  last  two  days, 
passed  the  word  down  the  line  that  no 
owner  need  fear  that  he  will  not  have 
enough  ore  to  keep  liis  vessels  busy. 
This  has  led  a  few  owners  to  believe 
they  will  be  better  off  if  part  of  their 
capacity  is  not  under  contract  for  the 
full  season. 

In  llie  aggregate  contracts  and  op- 
tions for  the  transportation  of  ore  in 
1913  cover  close  to  4,500,000  tons,  and 
with  one  exception,  no  sliipper  has  ar- 
ranged to  float  more  than  a  small  part 
of  his  shipments  for  next  j-ear. 

The  season  of  l'J12  demonstrated  the 
unloading  docks  can  do  more  than 
their  rated  capacity.  With  the  tre- 
mendous movement  of  the  season  it 
was  necessary  that  the  unloading 
docks  keep  up  a  steady  pace,  with  tho 
result  boats  made  better  time  and 
carried  more  cargoes  than  they  did  in 
previous  big  years.  The  docks  will 
have  to  do  as  well  this  coming  summer 
to  permit  the  fleet  to  handle  the  50,- 
000,000  tons  which  apparently  will  je 
the  total  in  1913. 

The  ore  mines  and  ore  railroads  of 
the  Northwest  will  use  more  coal  thiin 
ueual  in  the  work  they  will  perform 
in  getting  this  vast  amount  of  ore 
to  the  lake  front  and  the  coal  move- 
ment will  be  correspondingly  large. 
The  attitude  of  the  ore  shippers  the 
last  few  years  has  been  favorable  to 
having  the  last  cargoes  loaded  by  the 
middle  of  November.  There  is  no  rea- 
son to  expect  them  to  change  their 
views  next  season,  and  with  other  mat- 
ters out  of  tlie  way  they  probably  will 
make  a  determined  effort  to  accom- 
plish   this   end.

IS  STRICKEN  WHILE 
WaiTINC  FOR  TRAIN 

Albert    Hankey,     Railroad 

Meat  Contractor,  Dies 

Suddenly  at  Williston. 

AVIUiston.  N.  D..  Dec.   23. — (Special  to 
The    Herald.) — While    waiting      for      a 


train  here  on  his  way  to  spend  Christ- 
mas with  a  brother,  Albert  Hankey, 
aged  nl,  died  of  heart  failure.  He  was 
seated  alongside  of  his  wife  and  her 
failure  to  get  a  response  to  a  ques- 
tion was  the  first  knowledge  slie  had 
that  anything  was   wrong. 

Mr.  Hankey  handled  the  moat  con- 
tract for  the  Great  Northern  when  that 
road  was  building  through  the  North- 
west twenty-seven  years  ago.  He 
later  was  engaged  in  the  stock  busi- 
ness at  South  St.  Paul,  Minn.,  and  the 
funeral  will  be  held  in  St.  Paul  to- 
morrow.

Victor  Huot's   fresh    daily   candies. 


Losses  of  Several  Vessels 

Due  to  Unseaworthiness, 

It  Is  Claimed. 

Apropos  to  the  recent  loss  of  the 
schooner  Rouse  Simmons  In  Lake 
Michigan,  and  the  water  logging  of 
three  lumber  "hookers"  and  their 
consequent  abandonment  at  Detroit, 
Capt.  John  Stevenson  has  the  follow- 
ing to   say  in   the  Detroit   News. 

"There  is  not  a  particle  of  doubt  that 
the  majority  of  the  barges  lost  were 
unseaworthy  before  they  ever  left  port. 
Congress  furnishes  no  means  of  pre- 
venting theee  old  hulks  from  going  on 
a  voyage  and  thereby  imperiling  hun- 
dreds of  lives  every  year.  Until  con- 
gress passes  a  bill  by  which  the 
barges  and  schooners  come  under  an 
inspection  service,  loss  and  risks  will 
continue  as  long  as  there  are  any 
barges  left  to  navigate  the  lakes. 

'"Ocean  going  boats  must  undergo 
an  Inspection,  so  why  not  those  that 
navigate  the  lakes.  The  only  inspec- 
tion law  covering  barges  or  schooners 
Is  one  that  states  that  all  schooners 
over  700  tons  must  be  inspected,*  and 
at  the  present  time  there  is  not  a 
schooner  on  the  lakes  of  700  tons. 
When  llie  name  of  a  barge  Is  changed 
she  must  be  inspected  for  her  sea- 
worthiness,  but  at  no  other  time. 

"Waterlogged  and  old  enough  for  re- 
tirement, the  barges  Donaldson  and 
King  He  at  the  foot  of  Hastings  street. 
If  it  were  possible  to  engage  a  crew  to 
man  these  two  old  hulks,  they  would 
be  permitted  to  hoist  sails  and  clear 
from  port  or  be  towed  out,  as  there 
is  no  law  tliat  could  prevent  them. 

"Since  1852  various  classes  of  boats 
have  been  added  to  the  list  of  vessels 
tliat  must  stand  Inspection  or  lose 
their  license,  but  no  provision  has  been 
made  for  the  inspection  of  barges. 
Nearly  every  barge  carries  a  com- 
plement of  from  six  to  seven  men.  The 
question  arises,  are  the  lives  of  these 
sailors  not  just  as  valuable  as  those 
of  the  men  who  navigate  the  larger 
boats?  Are  they  not  entitled  to  the 
same  protection  as  the  passengers  wlio 
travel  on  the  large  passenger  boats? 
The  answer  in  each  case  is  that  they 
are. 

"The  crews  of  the  two  barges  that 
limped  Into  this  port  Sunday  night 
were  called  timid  because  they  showed 
a  rebellious  spirit  In  bringing  the 
boats  across  Lake  Huron  and  Lake  St. 
Clair.  If  they  had  walked  off  the  boat 
they  would  have  been  charged  with 
mutiny  and  probably  locked  up.  But  if 
the  barge  had  sunk  and  their  lives 
lost  the  populace  would  have  said  that 
they  were  foolish  to  have  shipped  on 
the  boats  and  the  matter  would  have 
dropped  at   that. 

"That  congress  should  get  busy  and 
add  the  barges  and  schooners  to  the 
list  of  boats  to  be  inspected  and  re- 
ceive re-lnspectlon  every  year  is  evi- 
denced by  the  large  number  of  boats 
lost  and  the  larger  number  of  lives 
that  go  to  eternity  with  them.  When 
t-.is  is  done  the  chance  of  sailors  los- 
ing their  lives  on  rotten  old  hulks  of 
schooners  and  barges  will  be  greatly 
reduced  although  not  quite  eliminated. 
"It  would  be  an  easy  matter  for 
congress  to  add  these  boats  to  the  list 
of  those  to  be  Inspected.  The  only 
thing  that  would  have  to  be  done 
would  be  to  change  the  law  to  read 
from  "tow  barges  of  from  700  tons'  to 
'barges.'  It  should  be  done  and  It  will 
be  done  Ifl  tlijie."

Detroit,  Mi:h.,  Dec.  28. — The  freight 
steamer  W^.  J3.  Matthews,  reported  as 
disabled  In  Liike  St.  Clair,  passed  down 
the  Detroit  river  yesterday  and  last

The  ateanrer  was  not  damaged. 
Heavy  ice  blocked  her  progress  and 
this  led  to  the  report  that  she  had  met 
with  accident.  A  tug  sent  to  her  as-

But  It  ought  to  go  farther.  Why 
don't  you  put  it  up  to  them? 

If  you'll  pull  together  you  can  stir 
up  such  a  civic  pride  among  the  prop- 
erty owners  of  this  town  that  this  tim<;

You  can't  expect  the  rest  of  the 
world  to  be  proud  of  this  town  unless 
you  make  the  town  so  proud  of  Itself 
that  it's  ashamed  to  be  seen  in  its 
shirt  sleeves,  with  its  collar  off,  its

Bill  Prepared  for  Legisla- 
ture by  Insurance 
Commissioner. 

St.  Paul.  Minn.,  Dec.  23. —  (Special  to 
The  Herald.) — A  bill  providing  for 
the  regulation  of  inter-insurance,  as 
approved  by  the  National  Convention 
of  Insurance  Commissioners,  has  been 
prepared  by  J.  A.  O.  Preus,  Insurance 
commissioner  of  Minnesota,  for  pre- 
sentation at  the  next  session  of  the 
legislature.  It  is  similar  to  a  bill  which 
will  be  introduced  in  practically  every 
state    of  the   Union. 

"The  state  of  Minnesota,"  said  Mr. 
Preus.  "during  recent  years  no  doubt 
has  been  losing  thousands  of  dollars 
in  taxes  because  many  of  its  largest 
property  holders  have  been  writing 
their  Insurance  through  the  medium 
of  an  attorney  or  intcr-lnsurer.  It  is 
to  regulate  this  the  new  law  has  been 
proposed." 

Among  other  things,  the  bill  will 
provide: 

That  property  holders  through  their 
attorney  shall  file  with  the  commis- 
sioner of  Insurance  of  the  state  a  veri- 
fied declaration  giving  the  names  and 
addresses  of  dU  subscribers  to  such 
indemnity    contracts. 

The  kind  of  insurance  in  which  such 
organization    intends   to   engage. 
A    copy    of    the    policy    contract. 
A   copy    of    the    power    given    the   at- 
torney   or    inter-insurer. 

The  location  of  the  office  of  such 
Insurance   exchange. 

That  application  has  been  made  for 
insurance  upon  at  least  100  sepan^te 
risks,  aggregating  not  less  than 
$1,500,000. 

That  there  is  on  deposit  with  such 
attornev.  available  for  the  pavment  of 
losses,  at  least  $25,000.  The  "bill  pro- 
vides that  the  Insurance  commissioner 
shall  be  appointed  attorney  to  accept 
service  of  process  so  that  any  action 
against  or  by  an  inter-insurer  may  be 
instituted  by  serving  upon  the  In- 
surance   commiasioner. 

It  is  provided  that  the  insurance 
commls.sioner  shall  look  into  the  finan- 
cial rating  of  each  separate  Inter- 
insurer  and  that  the  attorney  sliall 
submit  an  annual  financial  statement 
upon  which  the  commissioner  of  In- 
surance may  base  action  In  licensing 
such     inter-insurance     concerns. 

It  is  further  provided  that  a  reserve 
shall  be  maintained  In  cash  or  con- 
vertible securiticfl  erjiial  to  50  per  cent 
of  the  net  annual  deposits  collected 
and  credited  to  the  accounts  of  the 
subscribers  on  policies  having  one  year

BIG  CROPS  DO  NOT  ALWAYS 

SPELL  UNBOUNDED  PROSPERITY 


George  T.  Hawkin.%  a  farmer  living 
in  the  vicinity  of  Larimore,  N.  D.,  at 
the  Denox  today  stated  that  while 
there  is  the  great  talk  of  prosperity 
among  the  farmers  of  the  Northwe.<jt, 
and  while  It  is  true  more  or  less,  there 
is  also  the  oth«r  side  of  this  beautiful 
picture    of    bucolic    bliss. 

"We  farmers  naturally  know  that 
the  price  of  flax  and  wheat  are  much 
lower  than  tliey  were  last  year,"  said 
Mr.  Hawkins.  "We  knew  also  that  we 
were  selling  more  grain  and  receiving 
less  for  It.  From  an  elevator  man  1 
learned  in  figures  something  of  the 
difference. 

'This  man  stated  that  his  line  of 
elevators  had.  up  to  Dec.  10  purchaS'Sd 
over    30    per    cent    more    grain    than    it 


did  up  to  a  similar  period  a  year  ago, 
but  that  the  price  for  the  grain  also 
averaged  over  2  per  cent  less  than  the 
price  paid  last  year.  This  Is  the  %Ide 
of  the  o.ueation  that  the  public  does 
not    generally    take    into    consideration. 

••While  I  am  not  yelling  calamity 
by  any  means,  for  the  farmers  of  the 
Northwest  and  the  country  generally 
speaking  are  in  much  better  shape 
than  last  year,  it  is  a  fact  that  while 
the  farmer  has  more  produce  to  sell,  he 
is  not  getting  the  price  for  what  he 
has  that  he  was  able  to  command  a 
jear    ago. 

"But  on  the  whole  the  farmers  of 
our  state  are  the  gainers.  Most  of  us 
have  had  a  good  crop,  while  last  year 
some  of  the  farmers  did  not  have  any- 
thing to  sell  at  all.  Also  90  per  cent 
of  the  farmers  will  get  more  money 
for  their  crops  than  they  did  last 
year."

ing.  On3  of  the  little  girls,  unable 
to  restrain  her  hunger,  rushed  from 
the  table  after  drinking  a  cup  of  cof- 
fee. She  fell  to  the  floor  In  convul- 
sions and  died  almost  immediately. 
Stoddard,  so  his  wife  says,  seized  the 
coffee  pot  and  plate  of  pancakes  and 
threw  them  on  the  floor.  A  dog  which 
ate  one  of  the  cakes  died  immediately. 
Stoddard  then  borrowed  $10  from 
neighbors,  saying  he  wished  to  buy  a 
cjffln  for  the  child,  and  left  for  town, 
telling  h=a  wife  he  would  arrange  for 
the    funeral. 

Mrs.  Stoddard  notified  neighbors,  but 
the  district  is  remote,  and  as  tele- 
phone communication  was  Interrupted, 
county  officials  did  not  reach  the 
scene  for  three  days.  A  coroner's 
inquest  established  the  fact  that  the 
little  girl  died  of  poison  and  a  ver- 
dict of  the  coroner%i  jury  places  re- 
sponsibility for  her  death  on  her 
father.  Stoddard  Is  believed  to  have 
become   suddenly   insane.

Wooster,  Ohio,  Dec.  28. — Aft«r  an 
all-night  session,  the  board  of  trus- 
tees of  Wooster  university  adjourned 
until  February  without  determining 
the  question  of  ousting  fraternities 
from  the  university.  Voices  from  the 
members  of  opposing  factions  could  be 
heard  across  the  campus  during  the 
session  which  terminated  earlv  this 
morning.  The  board  was  so  divided 
that  no  vote  was  taken. 

The  war  on  •'frats"  at  Wooster  was 
precipitated  by  announcement  of  L. 
H.  Severance  of  New  York,  who  has 
given  the  university  $1,000,000.  that  he 
would  refuse  to  continue  his  support 
unless  the  "frats"  were  ousted.  Sev- 
eiance  has  been  tha  most  liberal  sup-

Thoughtlessness   and   Irresponsi 
bility,  Criminal  and  Other-wise. 

It  seems  sometimes  that  a  hole  in  the 
ground  would  be  a  safer  place  for 
hard-earned  savings  than  many  of  the 
institutions  for  the  purpose  left  to  the 
guidance  of  men. 
High-salaried  offi- 
cials and  low-sal- 
aried clerks  are 
alike  liable  to  the 
same  weakness  of 
making  a  splurge 
with  other  people's 
money.  The  instinct 
which  prompts  men 
to  this  sort  of  thing 
Is  not  so  radically 
different  from  that 
which  we  term 
thoughtlessness  or 
Irresponsibility  In 
every  day  life.  It 
is  only  when  it  pre- 
cipitates an  avalanche 
we  call  It  crime, 
tween  the  two  Is 
marked. 

We  appropriate  the  rights  and  priv- 
ileges   of    others    every    day 
thou.ght    of   regret, 
us  do.     We  contract 
and    instead    of 


of  trouble   that 
The   difference    be- 
never   very   strongly 


without  a 
At  least,  many  of 
debts  for  luxuries, 
tending  to  the  busi- 
ness of  paying  for  those  already  ac- 
quired spend  our  means  for  more.  We 
count  ourselves  honest.  We  really 
mean  to  pay  some  time  and  so  does  the 
bank  official  or  the  clerk  who,  having 
access  to  large  sums  of  money,  helps 


himself — fully  realizing  that  he  does 
wrong,  yet  condoning  It  because-  he 
means   to   pay  it   back. 

He  means  to  repair  dishonesty  by 
honesty  in  the  end.  In  the  meantime 
his  first  dishonest  move  leads  him 
from  bad  to  worse  seeking  to  cover 
one  by  the  other.  The  finale  is  some- 
thing he  never  took  Into  consideration 
!  in  the  beginning.  Rarely  does  a  man 
plan  in  cold  blood  injury  and  loss  to 
i  ijeople  whom  he  does  not  know.  He 
I  never  thinks  of  them  In  any  individual 
sense  until  his  doom  is  sealed  and  then 
frantically  grasps  at  every  straw  that 
gives  promise  of  recouping  his  for- 
tunes and  the  fortunes  of  those  he  has 
robbed,  making  a  bad  matter  worse 
In   his   extremity. 

It  does  not  lessen  one 
sibility  that  so  many  of 
escape  the  consequence 
are  not  strictly  honest  and  at  the  same 
time  are  not  entered  into  with  the  de- 
liberate plan  of  injury  to  any  one. 
High-minded  men  and  women  feel, 
and  rightly,  too,  that  embezzlement 
from  a  bank  in  which  people  of  all 
classes  and  conditions  entrust  their 
money  is  a  crime  that  can  be  classed 
with  that  of  murder.  Indeed  many  will 
go  so  far  as  to  say  that  it  is  worse 
than  murder.  It  brings,  in  so  many 
instances,  more  misery  In  its  trail  than 
would  result  from  a  dozen  murders. 
Some  day  It  may  be  held  an  equal 
crime,  but  before  this  we  shall  have 
progressed  many  leagues  beyond  our 
present  status  as  regards  personal  re- 
sponsibility in  our  dealings  with  our 
fellow    men.

MARRY  YOUNG. 

This  is  the  Advice  Dr.  Eiiot  Gives  the 
Coming  Generation. 

Dr.  Eliot  of  Harvard  declares  that 
postponed  marriage  is  a  irreat  modern 
evil  in  educated  society.  His  belief 
is   given   in   full   in   Harper's   Bazar,    a 

cheerful  message  to  the  coming  gen- 
eration. In  the  course  of  which  he  says: 
"You  will  hear  some  young  man  say:  I 
cannot  Invite  a  girl,  who  has  been 
brought  up  to  do  nothing  for  herself, 
and  to  have  every  gratification  and  every 
luxury  provided  for  her,  to  marry  me, 
until  I  can  eain  an  income  which  will 
enable  her  to  live  with  me  in  that 
way.  I  have  two  remarks  to  make 
about  that  doctrine — that  if  a  girl  has 
been  brought  up  in  that  manner,  the 
sooner  she  has  a  chance  to  live  dif- 
ferently the  better  for  her;  and,  sec- 
ondly, that  it  is  only  fair  for  a  young 
man  who  lov.es  a  young  woman  to 
consult  her  as  to  whether  or  not  she 
wishes  to  marry  him  before  he  can  earn 
a  large  Income. 

'The  young  »\'oman  has  a  clear  right 
to  say  a  word  on  that  subject  to  the 
man  she  loves,  and  not  to  be  obliged 
to  wait  till  he  is  35  years  old  before 
he  asks  her  to  marry  him.  This  is  a 
matter  of  looking  ahead  at  a  critical 
point  in  your  lives.  You  arc  not  in  the 
habit.  ptrhapB,  of  contemplating  this 
event  of  marriage.  It  would  be  wiser 
to  do  so.  T*ie  sooner  you  begin  to 
think  about  it  the  belter — first,  because 
It  will  be  thinking  about  the  most  im- 
portant event  in  your  lives  in  respect 
to  the  development  of  your  characters 
and  to  the  happiness  not  only  of  your-

will    normally    result." 


SAVE  CHRISTMAS! 


Margaret  Deland  Suggests  More 
Sensible  Gift-Giving. 

In  Harper's  Bazar  Margaret  Deland 
writes  a  remarkable  article  which  she 
calls  "Save  Christmas:''  She  handles 
the  Christmas  present  question  without 
gloves.  In  this  Bazar  article  she  de- 
clares that  "to  commemorate  the  Su- 
preme Gift  to  the  world  by  weariness 
and  irritation  is  to  profane  an  ideal. 
When  Christmas  day  arouses  profanity, 
it  is  time  fo»  people  who  care  for  It  to 
rise  up  and  protect  it:  And  there  can 
be  no.  possible  doubt  that  the  Christ- 
mas folly  which  causes  'swearing'  is 
increasing.  By  the  first  of  December 
the  very  air  seems  to  tingle  with  tho 
mad  compulsion  of  giving.  Contrast 
the  number  of  gifts  we  feel  we  'must' 
make  with  the  number  we  made  ten  or 
fifteen  years  ago;  contrast  the  elabo- 
ration of  ribbons,  papers,  boxes,  labels 
and  what  not,  with  the  casual  bundle 
we  used  to  leave  at  a  neighbors  door. 
Shopkeepers  foster  the  folly,  custom 
takes  It  for  granted,  and  timidity 
cannot  resist  it.  The  result  la  a  whirl 
of  meaningless  exasperation.  The  de- 
partment stores  during  the  two  weeks 
before  Christmas  are  a  sight  that 
makes  thoughtful  women  ashamed  of 
their  sex  (men  are  so  few  and  far  be- 
tween at  the  crowded,  ill-tempered, 
vulgar  bargain  counters,  that  they 
don't  count).  But  look  at  the  pushing, 
tired  women,  buying  things  which  very 
often  they  do  not  wish  to  purchase,  for 
people  who  cannot  conceivably  want  to 
own    them  I" 

Mrs.  Deland  concludes  her  Bazar  ar- 
ticle l)y  some  very  pointed  suggestions.

CHRISTMAS  IN  VICTORIAN  DAYS  I 


AN    APPEAL   TO    THE    PUBLIC    SPIRIT 
OF  THE  ALDERMEN. 

Last  Monday  the  city  council  rc- 
jecte<l  .1  resolution  providing  for  an 
invest:-  it:>n  into  the  advisability  ol 
empl  ■\  :;-;  :r.  expert  in  municipal  et- 
tlciencN  to  make  a  survey  of  the  hti.si- 
nes:*  of  the  city  of  Duluth.  and  t« 
prepare  for  tlic  information  of  the 
now  e  'tinuission  when  it  is  elected  a 
tentati\e  plim  of  organization  along 
the  lines  oi  the  greatest  possible  ef- 
ticieney  and  eeont>my. 

Th!>  aeiion.  it  seemed  to  us  at  the 
time,  w  .IS  taken  rather  hastily,  and 
withou'.  the  discussion  the  project  de- 
served Tr  i>  to  be  hoped  that  the 
coune  will  see  fit  to  reverse 

its  deei-!  )t\  .it  a  week  ago. 

It  >!  <!,i!.l  be  remembered  that  this 
lesolni!  .ti  commits  the  council  or  the 
city  to  nothing.  If  it  is  adopted,  all 
that  will  be  done  is  that  a  council 
committee,  v.orking  with  a  commit- 
tee from  the  charter  coitimission,  will 
investigate  tlic  matter.  If  it  sees  fit, 
this  coinniittec  will  present  a  resolu- 
tion pr..\iding  for  the  employment  of 
such  an  expert,  and  fixing  the  terms 
of  his  employment.  If  it  sees  fit.  the 
coune il  may  adopt  this  resolution — 
or  it  may  reject  it.  The  pendiag 
resolution,  however,  is  merely  a  pro- 
posal to  IXVKSTIGATE  — and  it 
cannot  cost  a  penny  or  hurt  anybody. 

It  hd<  })ecn  said  that  since  Duluth 
is  goinj  to  elect  a  commission  com- 
posed of  business  men,  the  whole 
matter  mi^Iit  as  well  be  left  to  them. 
If  the  commissioners  zire  business 
men,  one  of  the  first  things  they 
would  do — and  they  could  do  little 
until  they  had  done  it — would  be  to 
employ  an  expert  to  create  a  busi- 
ness-like and  efficient  system  of  or- 
ganization. 

If  the  city  council  will  do  this  work 
in  advance,  much  time  will  be  saved, 
and  tlie  city  and  its  citizens  will  be 
that  mttch  ahead. 

And  it  should  be  remembered,  too, 
that  Duluth  isn't  electing  a  commis- 
sion of  experts  in  municipal  efficiency 
to  organize  a  city  government,  but  a 
commission  of  citizens  to  operate  a 
city  gnernment:  and  any  reasonable 
commi^-i.>n  would  be  grateful  for 
such  help  toward  an  effective  organi- 
zation as  the  proposed  survey  would 
provide. 

This  plan  would  give  the  commis- 
sioners, whoever  they  may  be,  in- 
formati.m  which  otherwise  they  would 
have  to  take  time  to  dig  out  for  them- 
selves, and  suggestions  as  to  the  or- 
ganizati.^n  of  the  city  business  on 
which  they  could  work,  adding  to  or 
subtracting  from  as  they  pleased. 

The  word  "expert"  seems  to  have 
irritated  some  people.  These  people 
confuse  the  "expert"  with  the  '"theor- 
ist." Tlicy  are  not  the  same  thing, 
by  any  means. 

The  test  of  an  expert  is  practicality. 
The  test  of  his  plans  is  workability 
and  efficiency.  Nobody  should  be 
scared  by  a  word. 

The  Herald  hopes  that  the  city 
council  will  give  this  matter  full  con- 
sideration. It  hopes  that  for  the 
sake  of  Duluth  the  aldermen  will 
vote  unanimously  to  pass  this  resolu- 
tion. Tonight's  action  cannot  pos- 
sii)ly  e.)^t  anybody  a  penny.  It  sim- 
ply provides  for  an  official  investiga- 
tion of  a  suggestion  which  was  made 
by  The  Herald  in  perfect  good,  faith 
and  for  the  best  interests  of  Duluth. 
The  suLfgestion  should  not  be  adopted 
without  an  investigation,  but  unless  it 
is  too  utterly  absurd  to  be  considered 
for  a  luiniite  it  ought  to  have  the 
recognition  of  an  investigation. 

That's  all  The  Herald  asks  of  the 
council— that  it  provide  for  an  in- 
vestigation of  the  plan.  What  the 
committee  may  do  with  it,  and  what 
the  council  may  do  afterward  with 
the  committee's  report  if  it  favors  the 
plan,  are  bridges  that  may  be  crossed 
when  they  arc  reached. 

In  the  meantime,  it  is  to  be  hoped 
that  the  council  will  do  the  city  this 
service,  and  by  a  unanimous  vote. 


By   C'harleH  DtckeoM.      (<'A   ChrlfttmaM   Carol.**) 


For  the  people  who  were  shoveling  away  on  the  housetops  were 
jovial  and  full  of  glee;  calling  out  to  one  another  from  the  parapets, 
and  now  and  then  exchangping  a  facetious  snowball — better-natured 
missile  far  then  many  a  wordy  jest — ^laughing  heartily  if  it  went  right 
and  not  less  heartily  if  it  went  wrong. 

The  poulterers'  shops  were  still  half  open,  and  the  fruiterers'  were 
radiant  in  their  glory.  There  were  great,  round,  pot-bellied  baskets 
of  chestnuts,  shaped  like  the  waistcoats  of  jolly  old  gentlemen,  lolling 
at  the  doors,  and  tumbling  out  into  the  street  in  their  apoplectic  opu- 
lence. There  were  ruddy,  brown-faced,  broad-girthed  Spanish  onions, 
shining  in  the  fatness  of  their  growth  like  Spanish  friars,  and  wink- 
ing from  their  shelves  in  wanton  slyness  at  the  girls  as  they  went  by, 
and  glanced  demurely  at  the  hung-up  mistletoe.  There  were  pears 
and  apples,  clustered  high  in  blooming  pyramids;  there  were  bunches 
of  grapes,  made,  in  the  shopkeepers'  benevolence,  to  dangle  from  con- 
spicuous hooks,  that  people's  mouths  might  water  gratis  as  they 
passed;  there  were  piles  of  filberts,  mossy  and  brown,  recalling  in 
their  fragrance  ancient  walks  among  the  woods,  and  pleasant  shuf- 
flings ankle  deep  through  withered  leaves;  there  were  Norfolk  biffins, 
squat  and  swarthy,  setting  off  the  yellow  of  the  oranges  and  lemons, 
and,  in  the  great  compactness  of  their  juicy  persons,  urgently  en- 
treating and  beseeching  to  be  carried  home  in  paper  bags  and  eaten 
after  dinner. 

'  The  very  gold  and  silver  fish,  set  forth  among  these  choice  fruits 
in  a  bowl,  though  members  of  a  dull  and  stagnant-blooded  race,  ap- 
peared to  know  that  there  was  something  going  on;  and,  to  a  fish, 
went  gasping  round  and  round  their  little  world  in  slow  and  passion- 
less excitement.  The  grocers!  oh,  the  grocers!  nearly  closed,  with 
perhaps  two  stutters  down,  or  one;  but  through  those  gaps  such 
glimpses!  It  was  not  alone  that  the  scales  descending  on  the  counter 
made  a  merry  sound,  or  that  the  twine  and  roller  parted  company  so 
briskly,  or  that  the  canisters  were  rattled  up  and  down  like  juggling 
tricks,  or  even  that  the  blended  scents  of  tea  and  coffee  were  so 
grateful  to  the  nose,  or  even  that  the  raisins  were  so  plentiful  and 
pure,  the  almonds  so  extremely  white,  the  sticks  of  cinnamon  so  long 
and  straight,  the  other  spices  so  delicious,  the  candied  fruits  so  caked 
and  spotted  with  molten  sugar  as  to  make  the  coldest  lookers-on  feel 
^      faint  and  subsequently  bilious. 

k  Nor  was  it  that  the  figs  were  moist  and  pulpy,  or  that  the  French 

^  plums  blushed  in  modest  tartness  from  their  highly  decorated  boxes, 
^  or  that  everything  was  good  to  eat,  and  in  its  Christmas  dress;  but 
1  the  customers  were  all  so  hurried  and  so  eager  in  the  hopeful  promise 
f  of  the  day  that  they  tumbled  up  against  each  other  at  the  door  in  the 
^  best  humor  possible;  while  the  grocer  and  his  people  were  so  frank 
i  and  fresh  that  the  polished  hearts  with  which  they  fastened  their 
S  aprons  behind  might  have  been  their  own,  worn  outside  for  general 
^  inspection  and  for  Christmas  days  to  peck  at  if  they  chose. 
^  But  soon  the  steeples  called  good  people  all  to  church  and  chapel, 

I  and  away  they  came,  flocking  through  the  streets  in  their  best  clothes, 
I  and  with  their  gayest  faces.  At  the  same  time  there  emerged  from 
f  scores  of  by-streets,  lanes  and  nameless  turnings,  innumerable  people, 
^  carrying  their  dinners  to  the  bakers*  shops.  The  sight  of  these  poor 
i  travelers  appeared  to  interest  the  Spirit  very  much,  for  he  stood  with 
f  Scrooge  beside  him  in  a  baker's  doorway,  and,  taking  off  the  covers 
^  as  their  bearers  passed,  sprinkled  incense  on  their  (Snners  from  his 
i  torch.  And  it  was  a  very  uncommon  kind  of  torch,  for  once  or  twice 
#  when  there  were  angry  words  between  some  dinner-carriers  who  had 
^  jostled  each  other,  he  shed  a  few  drops  of  water  on  them  for  it,  and 
^  their  good  humor  was  restored  directly.  For  they  said  it  was  a  shame 
f      to  quarrel  upon  Christmas  day.    And  so  it  was!  God  love  it,  so  it  was! 


pleased  with  his  appointment  because 
of  his  interest  in,  knowledge  of  and 
sympathy  with  the  cause  of  efficient 
agriculture. 

Through  its  agricultural  department 
the  state  university  touches  the  peo- 
ple of  Minnesota — all  the  people — 
more  widely  and  more  closely  than 
in  anj'  other  division  of  its  activities. 
.\nd  we  say  this  with  due  regard  to 
the  importance  and  value  of  the  uni- 
versity as  a  whole. 

Therefore  the  appointment  of  a 
man  like  Mr.  Williams  is  peculiarly 
timely  and  praiseworthy. 

Besides,  Duluth  has  the  state  farm 
school,  soon  to  be  operated,  an  im- 
portant arm  of  the  agricultural  side 
of  the  university  with  a  vastly  import- 
ant meaning  to  Duluth  and  to  North- 
eastern Minnesota. 

It  is  interesting  to  note  at  this  time 
that  the  late  Governor  John  A.  John- 
son wanted  Mr.  Williams  on  the 
board  of  regents,  and  through  a  local 
mutual  friend  offered  the  place  to  him 
at  the  time  of  the  vacancy  filled  bj-- 
Mr.  Hovland's  appointment.  At  that 
time,  however,  Mr.  Williams  was  un- 
able to  accept  the  place  because  of 
the  pressure  of  private  aftairs. 

The  Herald  congratulates  Governor 
Eberhart  on  this  most  excellent  ap- 
pointment.

INTERESTING. 

We  find  much  interest  in  the  atti- 
tude of  the  News  Tribune  upon  The 
Herald's  plan  to  employ  an  expert  in 
municipal  efficiency  to  make  a  sur- 
vey of  the  city  with  a  view  to  sug- 
gesting, for  the  convenience  of  the 
new  commission,  a  tentative  system 
co-ordinating  the  various  b-anches  of 
city  business  along  lines  of  simplicity, 
economy  and  efficiency. 

Editorially,  it  damns  it  with  its 
praise. 

Locally,  it  has  managed  to  scrape 
together  a  few  interviews  opposed  to 
the  plan,  including  several  individuals 
who  had  already  given  The  Herald 
interviews  in  favor  of  it. 

Very  interesting,  indeed. 


Al.so  this  is  an  easy  time  of  year  to 
impres.s  young  grills  with  the  advisabil- 
ity of  keeping  their  stockings  darned. 


At    least   It   isn't    too    late   to    resolve 
to   shop  early   next   year. 


A  SPLENDID  APPOINTMENT. 

It  is  a  great  pleasure  to  be  able  to 
commend  Governor  Eberhart  un- 
stintedly for  his  appointment  of  John 
O.  Williams  of  this  city  as  a  member 
of  the  board  of  regents  of  the  state 
university  to  fill  the  vacancy  created 
by  the  resignation  of  H.  B.  Hovland. 

Mr.  Williams  is  abundantly  equipped 
in  every  way  for  this  high  position. 

But     The     Herald     is     particularly 


THE  PARCEL  POST.  THE  LOCAL  MER- 
CHANT AND  THE  COUNTRY  PAPER. 

The  fight  against  the  parcel  post, 
which  goes  into  effect  the  first  of  the 
year,  was  always  waged  in  the  name 
of  the  local  merchant.  The  express 
companies,  the  many  concerns  with 
which  the  express  companies  are  more 
or  less  secretly  allied  by  investment, 
the  railroads,  and  even  the  whole- 
salers and  many  retailers  themselves. 
~all  declared  that  the  cheap  carriage 
rates  of  the  parcel  post  would  wipe 
out  the  local  merchants  and  leave 
nothing  but  big  city  mail  order 
houses. 

None  of  them  stopped  to  think  that 
if  the  business  of  the  country  mer- 
chant is  on  a  basis  so  insecure  that 
cheap  transportation  w^ould  ruin  it,  it 
was  bound  to  die  anyway  —  and 
should  die. 

But  they  did  the  country  mercharit 


less  than  justice.  He  gives  credit,  and 
the  mail  order  houses  don't.  His 
goods  are  on  exhibition  for  approval, 
and  the  mail  order  purchase  is  "sight 
unseen,"  He  knows  his  customers, 
and  the  mail  order  house  doesn't. 

On  top  of  these  advantages,  the 
local  parcel  post  rates  are  so  much 
lower  than  the  zone  rates  that  the 
local  merchant  has  a  clear  advantage 
in  transportation  rates. 

The  trouble  with  the  rural  mer- 
chant whose  business  might  be  in- 
jured by  the  mail  order  houses  is  that 
he  is  not  progressive.  Interpreted 
into  more  concrete  terms,  the  trouble 
with  him  is  that  he  doesn't  advertise. 
True,  he  sometimes  runs  a  card  in 
the  local  paper  stating  that  he  is  in 
business,  and  keeps  "fine  goods,"  but 
that  isn't  advertising.  Everybody 
knows  he  is  in  business,  and  nobody 
expects  him  to  say  anything  else  than 
that  his  goods  are  "fine."  But  it 
doesn't  get  him  anything. 

What  his  possible  patrons  do  not 
know  is  that  he  has  bargains  as  well 
as  the  mail  order  houses.  This 
knowledge  he  can  convey  to  them 
only  by  advertising. 

What  the  country  merchant  ought 
to  do,  parcel  post  or  no  parcel  post, 
is  to  study  advertising.  Let  him 
study  what  the  city  retail  merchants 
do  in  that  line.  Let  him  learn  how 
to  do  it  for  himself  by  copying  them. 
A  country  merchant  could  do  no  bet- 
ter in  this  territory,  for  instance,  than 
to  study  the  retail  advertisements  in 
The  Herald.  If  he  does  not  take  The 
Herald  his  local  newspaper  editor 
probably  does,  and  he  will  be  glad  to 
keep  it  on  file  for  this  use  If  he  is 
asked  to  do  so. 

The  country  merchant  should  ad- 
vertise precisely  as  the  city  merchant 
does.  Only  in  that  way  can  he  let 
his  possible  patrons  know  what  he 
has  in  stock  and  what  bargains  he  can 
offer.  He  can  circularize  his  ter- 
ritory, it  is  true,  but  it  will  cost  him 
more  and  he  can  be  sure  that  though 
every  newspaper  is  read,  nine  out  of 
ten  circulars  reach  the  waste  basket 
immediately.  He  must  advertise,  and 
he  must  do  it  exactly  as  the  success- 
ful city  merchants  do.  He  will  find 
no  better  school  to  study  advertising 
methods  in  than  the  advertising 
columns  of  this  newspaper  as  they 
are  filled  by  the  Duluth  merchants. 

The  country  merchant,  if  he  knew 
it,  has  a  weapon  at  hand  with  which 
he  can  successfully  fight  t'^e  city  mail 
order  house,  no  matter  how  cheap 
carriage  rates  are  made.  That  weap- 
on is  his  local  newspaper.

though  of  cpucj|e|jt  is  not  so  regular 
in  form  as'  thd  geographical  town- 
ship lines.  In  a  small  part  of  these 
towns  there^|!s  fkcellcnt  agricultural 
land,  which  VoAld  not  be  included; 
and  there  is  a  little  territory  outside 
the  four  towns  which  belongs  to  this 
tract,  and  which  will  be  included. 

It  is  a  place  of  rock  and  boulders 
and  picturesque  confusion.  There  are 
few  tracts  like  it  anywhere  in  the 
north.  It  is  the  western  end  of  the 
Vermilion  range  formation,  and 
marks  the  spot  where  apparently 
there  has  been  some  mighty  convul- 
sion of  nature.  Clear,  cold  lakes,  full 
of  black  bass  and  other  game  fish, 
abound  in  it.  It  has  been  cut  over, 
and  then  burned;  and  now  a  flourish- 
ing young  growth  of  pine  and  spruce 
is  coming  up.  This  timber,  if  it  can 
be  protected,  will  in  time  be  worth  a 
great  deal  of  money. 

The  plan  is,  as  we  understand  it,  to 
select  from  this  area  all  the  land 
which  is  utterly  worthless  for  agri- 
cultural purposes;  and  this  includes 
most  of  it.  Some  of  it  the  state  now 
owns.  Much  of  it  which  is  in  private 
hands  is  gradually  coming  back  to 
the  state  because  the  owners  do  not 
think  it  worth  while  to  pay  taxes  on 
it  now  the  original  growth  of  timber 
is  gone.  If  the  state  would  set  this 
area  apart  as  a  forest  reserve  and 
public  park,  it  would  have  a  nucleus 
in  the  land  it  already  owns,  and  as 
most  of  the  rest  is  useless  except  for 
public  purposes  it  probably  would 
have  no  trouble  in  buying  all  it 
needs  for  a  merely  nominal  price. 

Such  a  park  \vould  be  the  nucleus 
for  a  great  state  forestry  work.  In 
time  to  conie— it  ought  to  be  done 
now — all  of  Northern  Minnesota  will 
be  surveyed  and  the  non-agricultural 
land  set  apart  for  forestry  purposes. 
Here  is  a  tract  obviously  fitted  for  a 
beginning  of  that  work;  and  more- 
over it  is  already  supplied  with  a 
promising  growth  of  young  timber 
that  should  be  conserved.  Besides,  it 
could  be  turned,  with  almost  no  ex- 
pense, into  a  state  park  w^here  people 
from  all  over  the  state  could  go  for 
camping,  hunting  and  fishing  excur- 
sions. 

This  project  will  be  brought  before 
the  legislature  at  its  coming  session, 
and  it  should  tjave  earnest  consider- 
ation. The  time  to  set  apart  state 
playgrounds  is  no*-,  for  soon  the  op- 
portunity will  be  gone.  The  time  to 
begin  setting  apart  the  non-agricul- 
tural land  in  Northern  Minnesota  for 
forestry  jiurpose  is  now,  and  the 
smalLarea  described  offers  an  excel- 
lent opportunity  for  a  beginning.

mixing  up  things  to  eat.  He  ought  to 
be  satisfied  with  the  stew  he  stirred  up 
by  his  tariff  bill.

To   the   Editor  of   The   Herald: 

The  snow  was  falling, 

The  night  was   eold. 
Beneath  a  bright  light 

A  waif  stood  bold. 

Her  eyes  they  glistened 

As  she  beheld  tJUe  sight. 
A  window  filled  with  Christmas  Joys, 

Dolls,  clothe^,  candies,  sleds  and  toys. 

She  turned  her  eye.s  across  the  street, 

Then,  speedily  there  did  go. 
On  a  flaming  poster  was  Santa  Glaus, 

At  the  moving  picture  show. 

A  stranger  came  and  took  her  In, 

And  as  the  film  rolled  on, 
Eagerly  watching  it  to  the  end. 

Depicting  Santa  Claus  to  the  throng. 

When  the  lights  turned  on 

She     asked:     "Is     Christmas     really 
gone?" 
He  answered:     "Oh,  no;" 

And  took  her  to  the  window  show. 

He  opened  the  door  and  in  they  go. 

There  was  a  busy  clerk, 
And  don't  you  kno«v 

They  made  Christmas  really  so.

WHY  NOT  MlRrSTARKET 

FOR  MINNESOTA  WOOL? 

To   the   Editor  of  The  Herald: 

The  all  wool  mackinaw  has  been 
found  to  be  etyllsh,  as  well  as  chuclc 
full  of  comfort  in  the  winter  for  rich 
and  poor,  ladies  as  well  as  men. 

The  same  holds  good  In  all  wool 
blankets  and  all  wool  flannels  and 
clothing,  Books  and  mittens  for  old  and 
young.  The  all  wool  mackinaw  is  the 
stylo  In  1912. 

And  our  Commercial  club  wants  your 
active  co-operation  for  the  upbuilding 
of  public  sentiment  for  Minnesota 
home  grown  wool.  We  ask  you  to 
actively  get  behind  the  movement  to 
build  up  the  Minnesota  sheep  industry 
so  as  to  supply  our  Minnesota  wants 
for  pure  wool. 

A  few  of  the  reasons  why  we  need 
slieep: 

In  the  timbered  and  cut-over  districts 
to  help  garner  the  millions  of  dollars 
of  wild  summer  forage  that  annually 
is  going  to  waste  for  want  of  live- 
stock, and  also  to  help  clear  our  brush 
lands  as  only  sheep  can  do  economical- 
ly and  prepare  the  lands  for  clover, 
cows,  liogs  and  other  crops,  as  well  as 
make  a  home  market  for  the  surplus 
supply  of  roots  and  potatoes  and  other 
vegetables. 

And  In  the  prairie  districts  we  want 
the  sheep  In  the  fall  to  turn  loose  on 
the  stubble  fields  to  pick  up  the  waste 
grain,  and  eat  and  pick  off  the  wild 
seed  plants  that  "have  taken  hold  of  the 
old  grain  farms. 

Get  busy  with  the  railroads  and 
needed  money  men,  to  bring  in  tlie 
spring  sheep  here  from  tlie  Montana 
and  Western  bunch  grass  ranges  to 
feed  here  during  the  summer,  and  in 
the  fall  ship  them  to  the  Eastern  mar- 
kets or  sell  them  to  local  farmers  here. 

Let  Minnesota  and  Montana  and  the 
railroads  join  hands  to  double  the 
Northwestern  wool  and  mutton  output 
in  the  next  five  years.     Your  truly,

A  WORD  OF  THANKS. 


To   the   Editor   of  The   Herald: 

I  desire  to  express  to  you  my  thanks 
for  your  courteous  editorial  of  Dec. 
10  in  reference  to  the  article  in  the 
December  Christian  Science  Journal. 

I  appreciate  very  fully  the  kindly 
spirit  reflected  by  your  editorial;  at 
the  same  time,  if  you  knew  how  many 
men  there  were  apparently  of  a  breadth 
of  mind  the  opposite  of  yours,  you 
would  see  why  sometimes  these  things 
that  appear  unnecessary  to  men  of  in- 
telligence and  broadness  of  vision  are 
absolutely  required  for  a  large  pro- 
portion of  the  so-called  thinking  world. 

I    thank    you,    however,    for   your   In- 
terest   in    the    matter    and    with    best 
wishes  for  the  holiday  season,  I  am. 
Very  cordially  yours,

Minnesota  Opinions 


Commeata  of  Um  State  Preat, 


Practical    Education. 

Austin  Transcript:  A  Winona  manu- 
facturing firm  is  allowing  a  limited 
number  of  high  school  pupils  to  work 
in  the  plant  after  school  hours  and  on 
Saturdays  to  gain  actual "  experience 
along  mechanical  lines.  This  is  a  wise 
and  practical  move. 


ITaHeecaaary  Trouble. 

Winona  Independent:  Michigan  went 
to  some  unnecessary  trouble  in  defeat- 
ing the  woman  svtffrage  amendment. 
It  will  have  to  adopt  it  in  a  few  years, 
so  why  not  now? 


Concildcrate  Govemor. 

Stillwater  Gazette:  Governor  Eber- 
hart is  considerate  and  thoughtful.  He 
has  fixed  the  date  for  opening  the 
"jag  farm"  at  Willmar  for  Dec.  26,  the 
day  after  Christmas.  A  whole  lot  of 
men  would  never  have  thought  of  that 
very  appropriate  day. 


Cook  Connty  Optimism. 

Grand  Marais  News-Herald:  North- 
ern Minnesota  will  continue  to  develop 
— no  matter  what  the  politics  of  tlie 
president. — Bralnerd  Tribune. 

And  the  Tribune  took  Northeastern 
Minnesota  into  the  scope  of  its  vision 
in  saying  so.  At  any  rate  we  in  Cook 
county  are  optimistic  enough  to  say: 
"The  same  over  here." 


It  Sbonld  Be  Doae. 

Moorhead  News:  There  appears  to 
be  a  movement  on  foot  among  the 
members  of  the  legislature  to  shorten 
the  session  this  winter  to  sixty  days. 
There  ought  not  to  be  any  difficulty  in 
accomplishing  this  needed  reform  now 
that  the  members  are  paid  by  the  year 
Instead  of  by  the  day. 


Another  name  that  always  comes  to 
mind  at  this  time  of  year  is  that  of 
Ebenezer  Scrooge. 

A  NORTHERN  MINNESOTA  GIFT  TO 
THE  STATE. 

Northern  Minnesota  is  asking  the 
state  to  do  a  good  deal  for  it,  though 
it  is  not  asking  a  single  thing  that 
will  not  work  out  to  the  profit  and 
glory  of  the  entire  commonwealth. 

But  because  Northern  Minnesota  is 
asking  so  much,  it  is  only  fair  that  it 
should  do  sometliing  for  the  state  as 
a  whole. 

This  is  why  the  project  for  a  state 


CLEANING  WALKS. 

To   the   Editor   of  The   Herald: 

Pretty  soon  you  will  begin  to  think 
that  "A  Pedestrian"'  la  a  chronic 
kicker,  but  that  is  not  the  case.  I 
merely  see  things  that  should  be  regu- 
lated for  the  good  of  the  public,  but 
which  the  authorities,  for  some' reason 
or  no  reason,  fail  to  take  cogni- 
zance of. 

In  the  present  Instance  the  kick  I 
have  to  register-^  over  the  condition 
of  sidewalks,,  'si^be  the  heavy  snow- 
falls began.  '^  path  is  worn  through 
in  most  casa^i,  tNpt  In  the  middle  of 
this  path  onj^almost  all  sidewalks  on 
residence  streets  is  a  ridge  of  hard 
snow.  Attempt  to  walk  on  It  and  you 
will  slide  down  its  sides,  cutting  a  ri- 
diculous figure,  Inconveniencing  and 
really  endangering  yourself.  I  see  lots 
of  people  slin  and  fall  on  these  ridges, 
and  some  of » theni  are  hurt.  It  doe» 
not  take  mueh  of,,  a  fall  to  break  an 
ankle  or  a  \vrist,\  lind  it  is  surprisinr 
that  more  such  accidents  have  not 
happened.  It  Is  particularly  dangeroua 
to  elderly  people. 

It  seems  to  me  that  the  least  the 
city  authorities  can  do  is  to  take  what- 
ever step.s  are  necessary  to  protect  the 
lives  and  llmftS  6t\be  citizens.     If  that 


Bad   FlnanclmB. 

Anoka  Union:  Minnesota  had  to  bor- 
row $2,500,000  to  pay  expenses.  That 
is  bad  financing  and  should  not  be 
tolerated.  The  finances  of  the  state 
need  overhauling. 


Good  Plan. 

Cambridge  North  Star:  The  plan  to 
have  all  county  officers  elected  upon  a 
non-partisan  ticket  seems  to  be  grow- 
ing in  favor.  It  woufd  probably  do  a 
great  deal  toward  making  the  mem- 
bers of  the  different  parties  vote  the 
proper  ticket  at  primaries.  At  pres- 
ent, in  counties  where  one  party  or 
the  other  overwhelmingly  predom- 
inates, as  is  the  case  in  most  counties, 
the  party  nomination  ends  the  contest, 
so  if  a  voter  is  to  have  anything  to 
say  about  county  officers  he  must  call 
for  a  party  ticket,  and  he  naturally 
votes  at  the  primary  upon  all  the  can- 
didates. If  county  officers  were  non- 
partisan, the  voters  would  be  less  like- 
ly to  "cross  over"  In  legislative  and 
congressional  contests. 


More  Non-Partiaanaklp. 

St.  Peter  Tribune:  The  selection  of 
postmasters  by  a  vote  of  the  people 
at  a  local  election  is  again  being  agi- 
tated, and  such  a  measure  may  be  In- 
troduced in  congress.  The  appoint- 
ment of  a  postmaster  by  a  congress- 
man is  the  cause  of  much  of  his  trou- 
ble. A  non-partisan  election  on  post- 
master M'ould  prove  popular,  and  In 
line  with  non-partisan  candidates  for 
county  offices. 


Washington.  l>ec.  23. — (Special  to 
The  Herald.) — AM  who  look  at  news- 
papers have  bum]>ed  into  a  lot  of  pure 
reading  matter  appertaining  to  the 
proposition  for  tt^e  government  to  buy 

Monticello — oh,  certainly,  pronounced 
"chello" — the  home  of  Thomas  Jeffer- 
son, now  owned  ty  Representative  Jef- 
ferson  Levy  at  New  York. 

And  Just  to  slow  how  such  things 
get   their  start,   liere  Is  a  little   tale: 

A  certain  congressman  and  a  news- 
paper man  started  from  the  capitol  one 
afternoon  some  months  ago  to  a  near- 
by hotel,  which  makes  provision  for 
those   who   thirst. 

On  the  way  over  the  two  passed 
Levy. 

"That's  Jeff  I^vy,  the  man  who  owns 
Monticello,"    said    the    congressman. 

"So  it  is,"  said  the  newspaper  man. 
"By  the  way,  I've  often  wondered  if 
the  government  wouldn't  try  to  get 
control  of  that  property  some  time." 

"Say,  wouldn't  it  be  a  great  joke  on 
Levy  to  start  a  r.iovement  of  that  sort 
and  take  the  place  away  from  him," 
laughed    the     congressman. 

Both  chuckled  over  the  idea,  as  they 
entered  the  hotel,  after  the  restoratives. 
The  more  they  thought  about  the 
thing,  as  they  stood  each  with  a  foot 
on  the  brass  rail,  reaching  for  the  little 
cardboard  check»i,  the  more  they  be- 
lieved it  would  b<5  a  rich  practical  joke 
on  Levy. 

•  •     • 

They  separated  and  the  congressman 
went  home  to  get  Into  the  conventional 
corpse  olothes  and  keep  a  dinner  en- 
gagement. 

It  was  a  brilliant,  though  select,  din- 
ner party.  Among  those  at  the  tablei 
were  Senator  O'Gorman.  Mrs.  Martin 
Littleton,  John  Sharp  Williams,  Mrs. 
T.  P.  O'Connor,  iind  others,  every  one 
as  smart  and  clever  as  can  be.  All 
were  in  fine  conversational  fettle  and 
the  congressman  referred  to  sought  for 
a  topic  by  which  he  could  make  a  show- 
ing in  the  gay  talk.  He  happened  to 
think  of  the  Joke  on  Levy  that  he  and 
his  newspaper  friend  had  been  discus- 
sing. 

Turning  to  Senator  O'Gorman,  he 
asked: 

"Have  you  heard  about  the  movement 
to  take  Monticello  away  from  your  con- 
stituent, Jeff  Levy?" 

•  •     • 

O'Gorman  said  he  hadn't  heard  a 
thing  about  it.  The  other  guests 
perked  up  and  wished  to  know  more 
about  it.  and  th«  first  thing  he  knew 
the  congressmari  with  the  sense  of 
humor  was  right  In  the  vortex  of  the 
conversation.  The  project  was  tossed 
back  and  forth,  iind  the  women,  being 
patriotically  inclined,  said  it  would  be 
a  grand  thing  to  have  the  shrine  of 
Jefferson  owned  by  all  the  people  of 
the  United  States  instead  of  by  one 
man.  Senator  Ci'Gorman  and  Senator 
Williams  were  a  sked  about  the  legal 
aspect  of  the  cass  and  they  talked  both 
learnedly  and  brilliantly  about  eminent 
domain,  tracing  the  precedents  right 
back  to  Blackstone  and  points   beyond. 

"All  that  is  ni»eded,"  said  the  Joker 
congressman,  "is  for  somebody  to  give 
the  movement  a   start." 

Mrs.  Littleton  i?ot  to  thinking  it  over 
the  next  day,  €ni  the  patriotic  side  of 
the  proposition  .appealed  to  her.  She 
determined  to  stirt  the  agitation.  And 
It  looks  as  If  she  might  possibly  be 
successful. 

Thus  we  find  a  little  joke  acorn 
growing    into    a    serious    oak. 

But  the  funniest  thing  about  the 
whole  deal  ia  that  the  congressman 
whose  sense  of  humor  started  the 
movement,  cast  his  vote  against  It,  re- 
cently, when  the  question  came  up  In 
the  house.

By  virtue  of  being  secretary  of  war, 
Henry  L.  Stlmsoii  was  the  boss  of  the 
government  passenger  ship  that  carried 
a  congressional  party  to  the  Panama 
canal  recently.  The  ship  was  due  to, 
sail  on  the  return  trip  at  2  o'clock  In 
the  afternoon.  I5ut  Stimson  wished  to 
get  away  a  little  sooner  and  had  the 
sailing  time  moved  back  to  12  o'clock 
noon.  Whatever  he  said  went,  you  un- 
derstand, just  a§  if  the  ship  were  a 
taxicab  that  he  had  chartered  for  tlie 
day. 

The  notice  was  posted,  therefore,  that 
the  vessel  would  start  away  at  noon. 
The  majority  of  the  hundred  passen- 
gers who  expected  to  sail  were  stay- 
ing at  the  other  end  of  the  canal,  where 
they  could  get  better  hotel  accommo- 
dations, and  the  earlier  sailing  hour 
made  it  necessary  for  them  to  get  up 
at  5  o'clock  and  catch  a  train  at  6:35. 
Most  of  them  had  been  up  late  the 
night  before  and  it  was  a  sleepy  bunch 
of  people  who  got  off  that  early  morn- 
ing train. 

Twelve  o'clock  came  and  the  ship 
stuck  right  in  tte  harbor  without  any 
sailing  activity  about  it  at  all.  People 
hunted  up  other  i>eople  who  knew  about 
such  things  and  learned  that  Stimson 
had  decided  not  to  go  'til  9  o'clock  that 
night. 

Several  particularly  sleepy,  yawnful 
passengers  glared  at  Stimson  the  next 
time  he  walked   by.

Swagar  Shcrlev,  the  Kentucy  mem-

house  cloak  rooms.  He  beckoned  to  a 
page  boy  who  happened  to  be  new  on 
the  Job. 

"Do  you  know  all  the  Kentucky  dele- 
gation?"   asked    !?herley. 

"I  know  most  of  It,  sir,"  replied  the 
new  boy,  anxious  to  please.  And 
straightway  he  went  and  fetched  big

1%e  First   Pure  Food   La«^a. 

Health  Culture  Magazine:  Prof. 
George  A.  Reisner  of  Harvard  univer- 
sity has  discovered  among  some  speci- 
mens of  earliest  Hebrew  writing  in 
the  excavations  of  the  city  of  Samaria. 
In  Palestine,  a  most  Interesting  record 
of  the  first  pure  food  laws  In  history. 
He  has  also  found  ancient  writings 
dealing  with  the  first  instance  on  rec- 
ord of  the  keeping  of  wines  in  a  gov- 
ernment warehouse  under  bond. 

Dating  back  to  the  period  of  King: 
Ahab,  850  B.  C,  these  inscriptions  are 
considered  to  be  one  of  the  greatest 
finds  of  the  Harvard  Palestinian  expe- 
dition which  delved  Into  the  city  of 
Ahab  and  Amrl  for  three  years.  "They 
found  labels  on  wine  and  oil  Jars. 
These  mention  the  year  In  which  the 
wine  was  laid  down  in  the  cellars  of 
the  palace  storehouse,  and  they  state 
the  vineyard  from  which  the  wine 
came,  important  facts  that  are  recog- 
nized equally  well  by  vintners  today. 

On  the  oil  Jars  the  label  reads,  "A 
jar  of  pure  oil,"  with  the  mention  of 
the  district  from  which  the  oil  came. 
The  bits  of  pottery  on  which  the  de- 
scriptions were  written  were  not  parts 
of  the  jars,  but  were  evidently  Intend- 
ed to  be  attached  to  the  necks  of  the 
receptacles,  just  as  are  labels  or  seals 
at  the  present  time.

FLIES  FROM  TUNIS 

ACROSS  TO  ROME. 

Kome,  Dec.  23. — Roland  Garros,  the 
FreiK-h  aviator,  tompleted  Sunday  his 
long  fllK'it  from  Tunis.  Africa.  Gar- 
ros after  a  splendid  fllRht  from  Tunis 
on  Dec.  16,  landed  at  Trapanl.  Sicily, 
a  distance  of  about  160  miles  over  the 
Mediterranean  sea.  He  left  Trapani 
Saturday  and  flew  to  the  Italian  main- 
land, faunday  he  continued  his  flight, 
landing  at  Naples  for  lunch.  Favor- 
able weatJier  enabled  Garros  to  cover 
the  last  .stage  of  his  journey  at  great 
Bpetd.       He    landed    at    Rome    fullv    ;m 


hour  and  a  half  before  he  was  ex- 
pected. In  making  the  landing  the 
aeroplane  was  slightly  damaged,  but 
Garros   was   not   hurt. 


Kankakee   Scorched. 

Kankakee,  111.,  Dec.  23.— Fire  today 
attacked  the  local  freight  depot  of  the 
Chicago.  Indiana  &  Southern  railway 
and  communicated  to  an  adjoining 
storage  warehouse.  Loss  estimated  at 
$100,000. 


E.  J,  Henderson  of  Fort  William, 
connected  with  the  Grain  Growers' 
Grain  association  of  Winnipeg,  who 
was  on  the  Duluth  grain  exchange  to- 
day, indorsed  the  opinions  of  quite  a 
number  of  recent  Canadian  visitors, 
who  think  there  will  be  little  bonded 
grain  received  from  Canada  at  the 
American  Head  of  the  Lakes  during 
the  coming  winter,  inasmuch  as  the 
Canadians  have  fairly  adequate  facili- 
ties   of    their    own    for    handling    it. 

■'I  do  not  see,"  said  Mr.  Henderson, 
"how  the  necessity  can  arise  for  the 
storing  of  any  great  quantity  of  Ca- 
nadian grain  in  the  Duluth  and  Su- 
perior elevators  during  the  coming 
winter.  There  are  fifty-five  or  sixtv 
beats  of  large  storage  capacity  win- 
tering in  the  Fort  William  and  Port 
Arthur  harbors  and  these  we  figure 
will  take  about  13,000,000  bushels  of 
grain.  Most  of  these  are  American 
boats,  but  the  Canadian  government 
has  suspended  the  operation  of  the 
law  forbidding  a  foreign  boat  to  carry 
grain  from  one  Canadian  port  to  an- 
other, so  that  these  boats  may  receive 
all  the  grain  that  it  is  found  conven- 
ient to  store  in  them,  whether  it  is  to 
be  shipped  to  either  Canadian  or 
American    ports   in    the   spring. 

•On  Dec.  10  we  figured  that  we  still 
had  capacity  in  the  elevators,  in- 
cluding the  new  ones,  at  Fort  William 
and  Port  Arthur,  for  32,000,000  bushels 
of  grain,  in  addition  to  the  4,000,000 
bushels  they  already  contained.  This, 
together  with  the  boats,  would  give 
us  storage  capacity  for  45,000,000 
bushels.  The  Canadian  Pacific  railway 
officials  figured  that  their  road  would 
take  20,000,000  bushels  of  grain  from 
these  elevators  to  the  East  during  the 
period  between  the  close  of  navigation 
and  the  opening  next  spring.  This 
would  give  Fort  William  and  Port  Ar- 
thur a  total  receiving  capacity  of  65,- 
000,000  bushels.  I  think  that  will  be 
Pkoty  for  .all  the  ^r^jn  that  comes,  and 
that  is  the  general  expectation.  It 
should  be  remembered  that  the  grain 
of  Western  Canada  Is  in  90  per  cent 
better  co-idiflon  tlan  it  was  a  year  ago. 
There  is  no  such  necessity  of  rushing 
it  along  on  account  of  Its  dampness, 
as  there  was  last  year. 

"There  is  no  congestion  of  cars 
carrying  grain  from  various  points  in 
Western  Canada  to  Fort  W'illiam  and 
Port  Arthur.  It  is  true  that  for  about 
two  or  three  weeks  prior  to  Dec.  8 
there  was  an  embargo  r.n  the  .shipment 
of  flaxseed  from  Western  Canadian 
points  to  the  Canadian  Head  of  the 
Lakes.  This  was  done,  because  there 
was  a  congestion  of  flaxseed  cars  in 
the  railroad  yards  at  Fort  William 
and  Port  Arthur,  owing  to  the  fact 
that  the  facilities  for  cleaning  the 
flax  did  not  operate  fast  enoutrh  to  get 
it  out  of  the  way.  There  Is  absolutely 
no  embargo  now. 

"Tliere  is  some  congestion  of  cars 
ready  for  shipments  to  the  East  over 
the  Canadian  Pacific,  but  that  is  due 
to  recent  wrecks,  whicli  have  handi- 
capped the  movement  of  cars.  There 
are  800  to  900  cars  of  grain  ready  to 
leave  Fort  William  for  "the  East.  The 
delay  Is  not  at  all  serious. 

Since  Dec.  10  the  receipts  of  grain 
at  Fort  William  and  Port  Arthur  have 
been  comparatively  light.  I  see  no  rea- 
son to  fear  any  congestion.  Some 
Western  Canadian  grain  mav  take  the 
Soo  route  through  the  United  States 
Instead  of  the  road  through  Port  Ar- 
thur in  going  to  the  East  this  winter, 
but  I  do  not  think  very  much  will  go 
in  that  way.  I  think  nearly  all  of  it 
will  take  the  direct  route  through 
Port    Arthur."

MILUTH— SUPERIOR— VIRQINU 


The  crispness  of  air  and  the  snowfall 
that  usually  go  with  thoughts  of 
Christmas  will  be  missing  this  year. 

On  the  other  hand,  the  blizzards  and 
extremely  low  temperatures  that  often 
detract  from  the  cheer  cf  the  day  arc 
not    in    the    forecast. 

Fair,  mild  weather  is  the  prediction 
given  by  the  weather  man  today. 
There  will  be  some  clouds  in  the  sky 
but  the  sun  will  break  through  occa- 
sionally and  the  aspect  will  be  gener- 
ally  fair. 

The  lowest  temperature  tonight  will 
be  15  deg.  to  20  deg.  above  zero  and 
no  very  great  change  Is  expected  be- 
fore  Christmas  day   passes. 

The  weather  is  ideal  for  the  windup 
cf  Christmas  shopping.  Chrislr^a.s 
church  services  and  entertainments 
should  draw  out  good  crowds,  for  the 
weather  conditions  will  not  keep  peo- 
ple at  home.  The  heavy  snowfall  of 
the  past  week  insures  a  "white"  Christ- 
mas, hut  there  will  be  no  new  blanket 
of  snow,  according  to  present  pre- 
dictions. 


RICH  SALVAGE  FOR 
CREW  OF  TRAWLER 

Three-Masted  Schooner  Is 

Found  and  Towed  Into 

Port  at  Cape  Cod. 

Boston,  Dec.  23. — The  three-masted 
schooner  Henry  R.  Tilton,  abandoned 
and  waterlogged,  arrived  off  Cape  Cod 
today  in  tow  of  the  steam  trawler  Swell 
which  picked  up  the  derelict  ninety- 
five  miles  southeast  of  Highland  llglit. 
Tilton  was  bound  from  Windsor,  N.  H. 
for  New  York  with  lumber.  The 
Swell's  crew  of  fifteen  men  will  share 
In  one  of  the  biggest  Christmas  pres- 
ents, through  salvage  money,  that  has 
ever  been  divided  among  fishermen 
here. 

The  fate  of  the  crew  of  the  Tilton  is 
still    in    doubt.      They    may    have    been 
rescued   by  some  passing  vessel.

CHiSHOLM  MAN 

SHOT,  HUNTIHC

Wounded  by  His 

Brother.

hunting  accident  late  Sunday  after- 
noon Joseph  Le  Doux,  aged  25,  well 
known  here  is  in  the  Rood  hospital  at 
HIbbing  with  a  big  hole  In  the  calf 
of  his   right   leg. 

A  hunliUK  party  consisting  of  Henry

Ligent  for  the  Mesaba  Railway  com- 
pany, Joseph  Le  Doux,  baggageman  at 
the  Mlssabe  depot  and  his  brother, 
Fred  I^  Doux  were  at  the  Matt  Borl- 
in  farm  hunting  rabbits  and  were  just 
preparing  to  start  for  home  when  Mr. 
Happle  saw  a  rabbit  run  from  a  brush 
pile  and  being  ahead  of  the  rest  of 
the  party  pTilled  up  and  shot. 
Brother's  Gun  Goeit  Off. 

Fred  Le  Doux  was  walking  about 
twenty-five  feet  behind  his  brotlier 
and  was  carrying  his  gun  cocked  and 
almost  simultaneously  with  the  shot 
from  Happle's  gun  his  gun  accident- 
ally discharged  striking  Joe  in  the 
calf   of   the    right   leg. 

His  clothing  was  immediately  re- 
moved and  the  limb  bound  above  the 
knee  and  while  this  was  being  done 
the  rig  was  rushed  to  the  scene  and 
he  was  hurried  to  the  Rood  hospital 
here  and  the  wound  temporarily 
/dressed  and  he  was  then  taken  to 
Hibbing  where  the  physicians  will  de- 
cide whether  amputation  is  neces- 
sary   or    not. 

Joseph  La  Doux  Is  a  very  active, 
strong  young  fellow  and  withstood 
the  accident  well.  He  has  been  with 
the  Missabe  about  six  months  and  in 
addition  plays  the  drums  in  the  Sims' 
orchestra  and  in  the  Commercial  band. 

Mr.  Le  Doux,  Sr.,  Is  at  present  at  a 
hospital  at  Rochester  having  under- 
gone an  operation  there  last  week  for 
gall   stones. 

The  Le  Doux  family  is  among  the 
oldest  on  the  ran^e  and  well  and  fav- 
orably known. 


ITALIANS  HAVE 

PROTEST  MEETING 

Object  to  Alien  Employes 

Feature   of   Proposed 

Compensation  Act. 

Hibbing,  Minn..  Dec.  23. — (Special  to 
The  Herald.) — Local  Italian  residents 
to  the  number  of  about  200  gathered  in 
mass  meeting  In  Central  hall  here  yes- 
terday to  protest  against  the  working- 
men's  compen-sation  bill  prepared  by 
the  Minnesota  Employers'  Liability 
commission  for  presentation  to  the 
next    legislature. 

Denounce    .Vltea    Feature. 

Speeches  were  made  in  Italian  de- 
nouncing the  measure,  especially  that 
feature  which  allows  alien  employes 
only  25  per  cent  as  much  damages  as 
citizens  and  those  having  families 
here. 

As  many  of  the  miners  working  on 
the  range  are  aliens  they  consider 
that  feature  of  the  bill  an  injustice. 

The  following  committee  was  named 
to  go  to  St.  Paul  and  fight  the  bUl: 
Herman  Antonmelli,  Adolf  SanagUa. 
Dominic    Baretto    and    John    Daiuomin.

BRIGHT'S  DISEASE 


Let  there  be  no  evasion — we  mean 
chronic  and  supposed  incurable  cases 
involving  dropsy,  albumen  and  casts. 
They  are  curable  in  many  cases. 

Let  us  cite  a  typical  case — that  of 
Mr.  R.  F.  Nitscke.  of  1246  Spalght 
Street.  Madison.  Wis.  There  had  been 
eight  physicians  on  this  case  and  it 
got  so  extreme  that  he  finally  had  one 
of  the  last  sjTnptoms;  namely,  failing 
eyp.sight.  In  January,  1907,  the  doc- 
tors admitted  that  nothing  further 
could  be  done,  and  they  sent  him  to

North  Dakota  Yomth  Tries  to  Thaw

New  Salem,  N.  D.,  Dec.  23. —  (Special 
to  The  Herald.) — Told  to  place  dyna- 
mite under  the  stcve  to  thaw  It  out  a 
youthful  son  of  Mi-s.  John  Ellis,  living 
seven  miles  from  here,  put  the  ex- 
plosive in  the  oven  of  the  stove.  He 
got  a  few  feet  from  the  home  when 
the  explosion  occurred.  The  kitchen 
and  a  part  of  the  main  dwelling  were 
wrecked. 

Mrs.  Ellis  and  ocher  members  of  the 
family  were  absent  and  no  one  was 
injured.  Two  sons  of  Mrs.  Ellis  had 
been  blasting  cos  1  a  short  distance 
from  the  house  and  the  dynamite  was 
too   cold    to    work    with. 


LOGGING  WEATHER  GOOD 

Difficult  to  Secure  Men  in  Spite  of 
High  Wages. 

Logging  companies  report  that 
weather  conditions  in  Northern  Minne- 
sota are  excellent  for  their  business, 
with  the  lakes  and  swamps  well  frozon 
and    plenty    of    enow    for    teaming. 

They  conr.plaln,  however,  that  It  Is 
very  hard  for  thern  to  get  men  and  to 
keep  them  at  work.  Many  men  aro 
receiving  $40  a  month  for  their  labor 
and  OP  the  whole  the  wages  are  higher 
by  about  $5  a  month  than  they  were 
a  year  ago.  The  loggers  say  they 
would  not  mind  this  If  they  could  only 
keep  the  men  at  work.  The  high 
wages  that  the  man  are  receiving 
make  them  very  independent  and  they 
frequently  get  themselves  into  a  con- 
dition that  renders  them  unfit  for 
service  by  buying;  and  drinking  the 
low  quality  of  liquors  that  are  often 
sold   in    the   villages.

SUGAR  IVIAI\MI\IDIGNANT. 

Wisconsin  Sugar  Company  Head  De- 
nies Beet  Sugar  Hurts  Bees. 

Milwaukee,  Wis.,  Dec.  23. — R.  G. 
Wagner,  president  of  the  Wisconsin 
Sugar  company  and  a  prominent  figure 
In  the  beet  sugar  industry,  has  taken 
emphatic  issue  with  Prof,  J.  G.  Sanders 
of  the  University  of  Wisconsin  In  re- 
gard to  the  published  statement  of  the 
latter,  that  beet  sugar  contains  ele- 
ments fatal  to  bees.  Mr.  Wagner  has 
written  to  President  Charles  R  Van 
Hise  of  the  university  and  to  Dean  H. 
R.  Russell  of  the  school  of  agriculture 
demanding  a  retraction  of  the  profes- 
sor's statement  or  proofs  to  substan- 
tiate It. 

"There  is  no  chemical  or  phvslcal  dif- 
ference between  beet  and  cane  sugar," 
said  Mr.  Wagner.  "Dr.  Harvey  Wiley, 
while  chief  of  the  bureau  of  chemlstrv 
of  the  department  of  agriculture  of  the 
United  States,  made  a  declaration  that 
there  Is  no  distinguishable  difference 
between  the  two  kinds  of  sugar,  and 
has  been  supported  in  this  statement 
by     hundreds     of    chemists     who     have

There  is  no  definite  information

In  addition  to  the  dozen  or  more

Prof.  Sanders  made  the  statement 
that  he  would  not  be  surprised  if  beet 
sugar  was  found  to  be  harmful  to  hu- 
man beings.  This  is  absurd  in  view  of 
the  fact  that  beet  sugar  has  been  manu- 
factured In  Europe  since  1802.  and  its 
production  has  increased  each  vear  un- 
til in  the  last  twenty-five  years  90  per 
cent  of  all  the  sugar  consumed  in  Eu- 
rope is  beet  sugar.

It  is  very  humiliating  to  be  grey  and  bald 
when  your  age  doesn't  justify  cither— to  be 
classed  as  a  "Has  Been"  and  set  aside  by 
your  young  friends  as  too  old  for  them— to

Hope  of  Pardon. 

Waupun.  Wis.,  Dec.  23.— John  Dietz, 
the  defender  of  Cameron  dam,  and  the 
members  of  his  family,  have  strong 
hopes  that  Governor  McGovern  will  act

sibly have  killed  the  man  of  whose 
death  he  was  convicted.  Mr.  Dietz  is  in 
good,  flesh  and  In  good  health,  save 
from  his  wounded  hand,  which  contin-

cial to  The  Herald.) — Change  in  hi

There  are  also  enormous  profits  in  growing  grapes.  More  skill  and  intelligent  care  is 
required,  but  the  work  is  not  heavy.  The  average  yield  is  five  to  seven  tons  per  acre.  The 
maximum  return  islSOperton,  the  average  $25;  the  minimum  is  $10— even  this  price  will  pay  grower's  profit. 

Oet  some  land  now.  It  does  not  require  a  great  amount  of  capital.  You  can  make  a  nominal  cash 
payment  and  defer  the  remainder  with  interest  for  a  number  of  yeare.

While  there  are  few  who  believe  that 
Matsuda.  the  Oriental  streak  of  light- 
nins.  can  defeat  Walter  Miller,  one  of 
the  greatest  wrestlers  at  154  pounds 
that  t'lie  world  has  ever  produced,  yot 
the  lovers  of  fast  and  scientific  wrest- 
ling will  see  one  of  the  finest  exhibi- 
tions of  the  sport  that  could  be  pos- 
sibly stagtd  between  two  men,  when 
the  Jap  and  Walter  come  together. 

The  Jap  is  one  of  the  fastest  and 
cleverest  men  in  the  game.  His  sid?- 
stepping  and  ability  to  feint  and  keep 
away  from  an  opponent  are  someth'ng 
wonderful.  His  foot  work  is  as  tood 
as  that  of  any  boxer  In  the  ring  to- 
day. Miller  will  have  to  go  at  the 
very  limit  of  iiis  speed  to  defeat  the 
Oriental,  one  of  the  most  eel-like  grap- 
plers  that  we  have  ever  seen  in  action 
in  this  part  of  the  country. 

•  •      * 

Miller's  bout  with  Matsuda  will  be 
his  last  before  his  meeting  with  the 
miglity  Mike  Yokel  of  Salt  Lake  City. 
The  contest  with  Yokel  is  the  one  the 
fans  in  this  city  are  waiting  for.  Ac- 
cording to  the  negotiations  the  battle 
between  the  two  bitter  rivals  will  be 
staged  here  some  time  in  February. 
After  the  bout  with  Matsuda.  Walter 
says  he  is  going  to  the  woods  for  a 
complete  rest,  and  then  will  endeavor 
to  get  one  of  the  best  wrestlers  in  the 
world  to  train  him  for  the  contest 
with  the  man  he  would  sooner  defeat 
than  any  other  man  in  the  whole  world. 
And  permit  us  to  say  here  th.at  the 
match  between  Miller  and  Yokel  will 
be  one  of  the  greatest,  no  matter 
which  one  wins,  that  has  ever  been 
wrestled  in  North  America.  Two  of  the 
greatest  middleweights  in  America,  it 
is  generally  acknowledged  that  the 
right  of  possession  of  the  middlewelprht 
title  rests  between  these  two  little 
men. 

Yokel  comes  about  up  to  Walter's 
nose.  But  he  has  the  body  of  a  giant. 
His  neck  Is  something  really  marvelous. 
Imagine  a  man  shorter  than  Walter 
Miller  with  a  neck  larger  than  that  of 
the  heavyweight  champion  of  the 
world,  and  you  have  some  adequate 
conception  of  the  man  who  Is  disputing 
the  title  that  Millers  friends  have 
claimed  is  as  much  the  property  of  the 
little  Pole  as  it  Is  the  rightful  posses- 
sion  of  either  Yokel   or  Gehring. 

The  match  with  Matsuda  will  be  the 
best  thing  in  the  world  for  Miller,  for 
the  wily  Oriental  will  speed  the  little 
Pole  up  more  than  any  man  in  the 
world  is  capable  of  doing — and  speed 
is  something  that  Walter  will  need  the 
night  he  tangles  with  Mique  Yokel,  the 
fair-haired  kid  of  Salt  Lake  City.

McGRAW  AND  EVERS. 

!  Tills   picture   was   taken    before   the   appointment    of  Johnny   Evers   as  the 

manager  of  the  Cubs.  One  wonders  whether  the  photographers" will  ever  have 
the  opportunity  of  catching  this  illustrious  pair  in  a  similar  position.  As  pilot 
of  the  Cubs  Evers  may  become  the  greatest  rival  of  McGraw — hence  the  specula- 
tion regarding  the  future  relations  of  the  tv.'o. 


ZIMMERMAN  PROVES  THE 
GREATEST  RUN  PRODUCER 


Heinle  Zimmerman  of  the  Cubs  was 
the  J.  Franklin  Baker  of  the  National 
league  last  season,  leading  the  players 
of  the  senior  organization  In  batting 
in  runs.  The  Chicagoan  hammered 
home  98  tallies  In  145  contests,  being 
outranked  in  percentage  of  runs  batted 
home  per  game  by  Larry  Doyle  of  the 
Giants,  winner  of  the  Chalmers  car 
awarded  to  the  National  league's  most 
valuable  player,  and  by  Jerry  Eding- 
ton  of  Pittsburg  and  Charlie  Stengel 
of  Brooklyn.  athletes  who  can  be 
placed  In  tlie  morning  glory  class  be- 
cause they  took  part  in  only  a  few 
games. 

There  was  a  close  struggle  for  the 
leadership  in  the  total  of  runs  batted 
in.  Hans  Wagner  and  Owen  Wilson  of 
the  Pirates  and  Bill  Sweeney  of  the 
Braves  doing  almost  as  wolf  in  this 
respect  as  Ziir.merman  of  Chicago,  who 
was  born  in  New  York,  and  Doyle  of 
New    York,    who    was   born    in    Illinois. 

Wagner  batted  in  94  markers,  Wil- 
son 93  and  Sweeney  92.  Other  con- 
sistent clubbers  v/ere  Konetchy  of  St. 
Louis,  Murray  of  New  York,  Mitchell 
and  Hoblltzel  of  Cincinnati  and  Miller 
of  Pittsburg. 

The  National  league's  team  of 
timeliest  hitters  would  be  made  up  of 
Alexander  of  Philadelphia  and  Meyers 
of  New  York  as  battery  men:  Konetchy 
of  St.  Louis,  Doyle  of  New  York,  Zim- 
merman of  Chicago  and  Sw'eeney  of 
Boston  as  infielders,  and  Wagner  and 
Wilso  nof  Pittsburg  and  Murray  of 
New  York  as  outfielders.  These  men 
put  the  finishing  touches  to  722  tallies. 

Thirty-five  hits  were  made  in  the 
National  league  last  season  that  swept 
the  bases  clear  of  their  three  tenants. 
The  onlv  player  who  twice  turned  this 
trick  was  Chief  Wilson  of  the  Pirates, 
he  making  a  triple  with  the  hassoi  ks 
congested  off  Dickson  of  Boston  and  a 
homer    when    three   were   on   off  Steele 


of  St.  Louis.  That  there  was  class  to 
New  York's  pitching  staff  is  shown 
by  the  fact  that  only  once  during  the 
year  was  a  long  hit  made  off  a  Giant 
hurler  that  brought  in  three  runs.  Lee 
Magee  of  the  Cardinals  made  this  wal- 
lop off  Jeff  Tesreau  when  acting  as 
an  emergency  hitter. 

Below  will  be  found  a  list  of  the 
National  leaguers  of  1912  who  averaged 
.500   or   better   in   driving   in   runs:

Alec  Smith,  rated  as  perhaps  the 
greatest  professional  golf  player  in 
the  world,  is  likely  to  be  engaged  as 
the  next  coach  of  the  Northland  Golf 
club. 

This  is  common  talk  among  the  of- 
ficers of  the  club.  Nothing  definite 
has  been  decided  upon  as  yet,  but  as 
the  matter  stands  at  the  present  time, 
Alec  Smith  is  very  likely  to  be  the 
instructor  of  the  club  for  the  coming 
season. 

Willie  Leith  is  not  likely  to  come 
back,  according  to  the  rumor  that  is 
going  the  rounds  of  some  of  the  club 
members,  and  to  take  the  place  of 
the  brilliant  young  Scotch  player,  one 
of  the  most  promising  professionals 
playing  the  game  today,  the  officers 
of  the  club  and  the  more  enthusiastic 
players  of  the  Northland  club  desire  to 
secure  the  services  of  the  best  man 
possible.  Alec  Smith  is  the  man. 

Already  some  correspondence  has 
been  carried  on  with  the  great  player. 
The  matter  has  not  progressed  to  the 
stage  where  any  definite  information 
can  be  given  out.  It  is  stated  that 
Smith  is  willing  to  come  to  the  North- 
land club  as  Instructor,  and  it  goes 
without  saying  that  the  players  would 
be  more  than  glad  to  have  one  of  the 
greatest  and  most  famous  players 
known  to  the  history  of  the  game  come 
here    as    instructor. 

Much  prestige  would  accrue  to  the 
Northland  club  by  the  engaging  of 
Alec  Smith.  Wherever  golf  is  known 
the  name  of  Alec  Smith,  dinna  ye  ken, 
tags  close  behind.  While  Mr.  Thomas 
Lipton  may  be  justly  charged  with 
putting  the  tea  in  tiffin.  It  also 
might  be  said  that  Mr.  Smith  helped 
to  put   the  go  In  golf. 

It  is  stated  that  a  decision  will  be 
made  regarding  the  engaging  of  Mr. 
Smith  shortly  after  the  first  of  the 
year.  The  players  and  leading  mem- 
bers of  the  club  are  strong  for  him. 
and  it  is  generally  believed  that  the 
present  negotiations  will  come  to  a 
satisfactory  head.

Plans  for  1916  Meeting 

of  Athletes. 

Stockholm,  Dec.  23.  —  The  general 
secretary  of  the  Olympic  games  to  be 
held  in  Berlin  in  1916,  Mr.  Diem,  has 
been  spending  some  time  in  Stock- 
holm to  gather  information  from  the 
Swedish  committee  which  conducted 
the  successful  meeting  of  1912.  Mr. 
Diem  told  the  correspondent  of  the 
Associated  Press  that  the  German 
games  will  be  conducted  on  the  same

central  body  and  different  committees

The  stadium  in  Berlin,  which  is 
nearing  cftmpletion,  will  contain  a 
large  running  track  surrounded  by  a 
cycling  track.  The  running  track  will 
be  666  meter.i  long  and  tliere  will  be 
plenty  of  room  on  the  green  inside  for 
field  sports.  The  Berlin  stadium  will 
cost    $800,000. 

At  the  next  Olympic  congress.  Ger- 
many will  propose  that  fancy  cycling 
and  figure  skating  in  an  ice  rink  be 
added  to  llie  Olympic  program,  and 
will  strongly  oppose  the  inclusion  of 
bo.\lng.  The  Germans  do  not  under- 
stand boxing  at  all,  said  Mr.  Diem,  and 
con.«ider  it  a  barbarous  sport.  Ger- 
many probably  will  be  opposed  on  this 
point  by  England,  the  United  States, 
Sweden  and  Denmark,  nations  which 
have  favored  boxing.

New  York,  Dec.  23. — Announcement 
was  made  last  night  by  the  state  ath- 
letic commission,  which  is  vested  with 
feolfc  jurisdiction  over  boxing  in  New 
York  state,  of  a  complete  set  of  rules 
under  which  all  ring  contests  have 
been  enforced  hitherto,  but  many  new 
ones  have  been  added  and  the  commit- 
tee promulgated  an  official  scale  of 
weights  and  definitely  decided  other 
mooted  questions.  The  light-heavy- 
weight class,  15S  to  175  pounds  has 
been  designated  as  "commssion 
weight." 

The  commission  rules  that  the  ref- 
eree must  be  stationed  inside  the  ring 
and  not  on  the  outside,  a  system  used 
at  the  National  Sporting  Club  of  Lon- 
don and  recently  tried  by  a  local  club. 
The  ring  shall  not  be  less  than  16  feet 
nor  more  than  24  feet  square. 

While  prohibiting  a  referee  giving  a 
decision  in  professional  contests,  a  de- 
cision can  be  given  in  contests  held 
under  the  jurisdiction  of  the  Amateur 
Athletic  union.  The  commission  makes 
ringside  weighing  imperative,  and  or- 
ders that  main  bouts  must  be  staged 
not  later   than    10  p.   m. 

Only  soft  cotton  or  linen  bandages 
can  be  worn  by  contestants  and  no 
boxer  In  the  lightweight  class  or  un- 
der shall  be  permitted  to  box  against 
an  opponent  ten  or  more  pounds  heav- 
ier. Specific  penalties  will  be  enforced 
for  inlractions  of  the  various  rules. 

The  scale  of  weights  adopted  by  the 
commission  Is: 

Paperweight,   108   pounds. 

Bantamweight,  116  pounds. 

Featherweight,   125  pounds. 

Lightweight,  135  pounds. 

Welterweight,   145  pounds. 

Middleweight,  158  pounds. 

Commis.'jion,    175   pounds. 

Htavyweight    all   over    17  5    pounds. 


Walter  Miller  and  Matsuda,  the  Jap, 
will  wrestle  in  a  finish  match  at  the 
Duluth  Auditorium  on  the  evening  of 
Dec.    30. 

The  match  bet\k-een  the  Oriental  and 
Miller  was  consummated  late  Satur- 
day, the  arrangements  being  closed 
by   wire    between    Duluth   and    Chicago. 

Miller  even  at  the  present  time  is 
training  with  I'recision  and  syste- 
matic care  for  the  match  with  Mike 
Yokel  of  Salt  Lake  City.  The  contest 
with  the  Jap  will  probably  be  the  last 
of  any  importance  that  Miller  will 
wrestle  before  he  s<eps  on  the  mat  to 
attempt  to  husli  the  claims  of  the 
wonderful  Yokel  to  the  middleweight 
championship. 

From  the  standpoint  of  speed  and 
wonderful  display  of  science  and 
every  trick  of  the  wrestling  game, 
the  contest  between  the  little  Pole 
and  the  Jap  should  be  the  greatest 
wrestled  here  so  far  the  present  sea- 
son. Even  though  the  majority  of  the 
fans  are  heartily  of  the  opinion  that 
Miller  can  beat  the  Jap,  they  also 
realize  that  the  Adamson  protege  is 
one  of  the  speediest  men  in  the  world. 

There  will  be  iibout  five  pounds  dif- 
ference in  the  nij-n's  weight.  Matsuda 
weighs  around  the  147-pound  mark, 
and  Miller's  usual   weight  is  152. 

The  greatest  chance  the  Jap  has  is 
in  speed  and  trickery.  Miller  is  one 
of  the  fastest  little  men  in  the  world, 
and  to  outspeed  the  Pole  the  man 
from  the  Flowery  Kingdom  will  have 
to   go   some.   Tha;   is  just   what   he   in- 


tends to  .  do,  according  to  the  lettem 
from  Adamson — but  most  of  the  fans 
doubt  whether  he  can  travel  at  a 
rate  of  speed  Buffi<ient  to  beat  one  of 
the  greatest  boys  in  the  whole  world 
at    his   weight. 

Miller  didn't  care  anything  about 
wrestling  the  Jap.  It  was  only  th# 
persistence  of  Ed  Adamson  and  an  old 
promise  Miller  made  to  give  the  Ori- 
ental a  chance,  that  resulted  in  the 
match  being  made.  Walter  fignree 
that  he  will  gain  little  credit  In  beat- 
ing the  Jap,  and  If  he  should  be 
caught  with  one  of  the  tricks  of  Mat- 
suda and  thrown,  he  will  be  discred- 
ited right  on  the  eve  of  his  efforts  to 
land   the   big   match   with   Yokel. 

The  little  Pole  1b  in  Calumet  at  the 
present  time,  where  he  went  to  spend 
Christmas  with  his  mother  and  sis- 
ter. He  will  return  to  Duluth  around 
Thui-sday  or  Friday  and  will  put  the 
finishing  touches  to  his  training  here. 
Since  he  has  been  in  the  Copper  coun- 
try, Miller  has  been  training  and  he 
will  step  on  the  mat  wiith  the  Jap 
In  the  same  superb  condition  that  en- 
abled him  to  make  so  great  a  fight 
against  that  consummate  master  of 
the  mat,  Freddy  Beell  of  Marshfleldi, 
Wis. 

Adamson  has  requested  that  the 
men  wrestle  in  a  larger  ring.  He  also 
wants  the  mat  to  be  made  harder  lo 
order  that  the  Jap  can  exhibit  hi» 
wonderful  footwork.  The  ring  will 
not  be  enlarged  any.  but  the  men  can 
wrestle  on  any  kind  of  a  mat  they 
see  fit.  Miller  Is  willing  to  give  the 
Jap  any  advantage  in  the  world  and 
Adamson  can  dictate  any  terms  ho 
sees  fit. 


MANY  SKI  TOURNAMENTS 

HAVE  DEEN  SCHEDULED 


To  the  Sporting   Editor  of  The  Herald: 

A  great  man:'  tournaments  under 
the  auspices  of  the  National  Ski  as- 
sociation will  be  conducted  all  over 
the  Northwest  <lurlng  the  next  two 
months. 

Btoughton,  Wis.,  opens  the  circuit 
on  Jan.  18  with  the  first  big  Inter- 
state tournament,  followed  en  the  19th 
by  Virginia,  Minn.,  25th  at  Beloit.  Wis.. 
26th  at  Chippe-w  a  Falls  and  on  the 
same  date  at  Gary,  HI.,  where  the  na- 
tional  was  held   a  year  ago. 

Milwaukee  will  Introduce  the  ski 
sport  with  a  big  tournament  on  Feb.  2, 
while  Arcadia,  'VN'ls.,  will  also  hold  one 
on  the  same  day.  Spring  Grove,  Minn., 
Is  a  new  club,  just  recently  joining 
the  association  and  a  tournament  will 
be  pulled  off  on  their  new  hill  on  Feb. 
4  while  Rushford  comes  In  on  the  6th, 
Hudson  cmr  the  (th.  Red  Wing  on  the 
9th.  with  Glenwnod  following  on  the 
11th,  Fergus  Falls  Feb.  13,  with  the 
national  at  Irorwood,  Mich,  on  Feb. 
15,  16  and  17,  while  Ishpeming.  as 
usual,  holds  fort!  on  the  22nd.  There 
wHl  also  be  con<lucted  tournaments  at 
lola,  Cameron,  Eau  Claire,  Colfax  and 
Starbuck. 

Several  new  clubs  will  be  admitted 
this  season.  Spring  Grove  already  hav- 
ing joined  with  Ladysmith  coming  In 
at  the  beginning  of  the  new  year, 
while  others  are  In  cofrespond'ence 
with  the  secretarv  on  the  proposi- 
tion of  Joining.  The  loss  in  the  mem- 
bership, througl  the  withdrawal  of 
_  Duluth  and  St.  I'aul,  has  already  been 
j  greatly  overcome  by  the  large  increase 
in  memberships  of  several  of  the  clubs 
and  judging  from  present  indications, 
the  association  will  number  at  least 
500  more  members  by  Feb.  1  than  a 
year  ago,  so  the  association  has  never 
been  In  a  healtller  condition  than  at 
present.  The  fact  that  it  is  now  op- 
tional with  any  affiliated  club  to  abol- 
ish professional  tournaments  If  they 
so  desire  and  hold  nothing  but  amateur 
tournaments  antJ  yet  retain  member- 
ship in  the  national  body  has  done 
away  with  much  of  the  opposition  to 
professionalism  as  supported  by  the 
organization.  an3  the  clubs  realize 
that  by  sticking  together  they  can  do 
more  towards  bettering  conditions 
than  if  they  drop  out,  so  the  best  of 
harmony  is  now  existing  and  we  don't 
believe  there  will  be  another  rupture, 
the  present  syst'^m  seeming  to  please 
the  great  majority   of  the  clubs. 

Under  the  nev  svstem  no  club  is 
permitted  to  advertise  a  tournament 
as  professional  or  as  amateur.  All  the 
Information  the  public  will  get  re- 
garding the  skiers  to  compete  at  tour- 
naments will  be  that  they  are  stars 
In    class   A.    B.    or   C. 


saf  that  fights  will  be  held  under  the 
supervision  of  the  Gary  authorities. 
The    opening    is    scheduled      for      New 


CHAS.  W.  MURPHY  IN 
PHIUNTHROPIC  POSE 


Chicago,  Dec.  23. — The  status  of 
Mordecal  Brown,  the  three-fingered 
pitcher,  formerly  of  the  Chicago  Na- 
tionals, who  has  been  released  to  Louis- 
ville, and  who,  it  has  been  announced, 
is  to  be  manager  of  the  Kentucky  ag- 
gregation, about  to  be  set  free  to  join 
the  American  league  and  other  possi- 
bilities, was  fixed  here  by  Charles  W. 
Murphy,  president  of  the  Chicago  club. 
Brown'  still  belongs  to  Chicago,  ac- 
cording to  Murphy.  He  is  held  by  the 
Chicago  team  for  Brown's  own  protec- 
tion, so  that  no  deal  can  be  arrange?-! 
for  him  that  does  not  suit  the  three- 
fingered  one. 

•The  Chicago  club  would  pay  Brown 
more  next  season  than  any  other  club 
wouid.  in  all  probability,"  said  Murphy. 
•'He  has  done  too  much  for  Chicago  to 
be  left  at  the  mercy  of  trades  that 
might  not  suit  him.  1  will  not  sanction 
any  deal  that  does  not  suit  Brown."

Power  Boat  Races. 

Peoria,  111..  Dec.  23. — The  fifth  annual 
regatta  of  the  Western  Power  Boat 
association  will  be  held  in  Peoria  on 
Saturday  and  Sunday,  Aug.  9  and  10. 
The  races  will  be  run  on  Peoria  lake 
and  under  the  auspices  of  the  Peoria 
Yacht  club  and  the  Illinois  Valley 
Yaciit  club.  There  will  be  prizes  of 
fL-'jOO  for  the  four  regular  events.  The 
Sunday  racing  proposition  brought 
forth  a  lively  discussion  at  the  meeting 
of  the  two  clubs,  but  finally  carried. 

Fights  at  Gary. 

Chicago,  Dec.  23. — The  boxing  lid  is 
to  be  lifted  at  Gary,  Ind.,  twenty  miles 
from  Chicago,  according  to  plans  from 
promoters     made     public     here.       They 


^\  e  are  sorry  Duluth  could  not  see 
Its  way  to  let  bygones  be  bygones, 
and  come  back  with  us  under  the  new 
system,  especially  so  when  we  have 
the  assurance  of  skiers  and  clubs  th«t 
each  In  the  future  will  abide  by  any 
decisions  rendered  In  case  of  dispute* 
by  a  board  of  arbitration.  Of  course, 
we  are  aware  of  the  fact  that  Duluth 
has  a  large  individual  membershlo. 
and  that  it  can  well  afford  to  be  In- 
dependent, and  the  national  assoclft. 
tlon  wishes  it  every  possible  suc- 
cess, yet.  we  shall  be  glad  at  anv  tlmo 
to  receive  the  club's  application  for 
reinstatement. 

We  have  just  received  an  Invita- 
tion to  participate  In  the  internation- 
al ski  contests  fn  Sweden  next  Febru- 
ary, but  as  we  are  not  vet  strong 
enough,  financially,  to  undertake  the 
sending  of  a  team  over  there,  we  hav^ 
declined  for  the  present,  but  In  an- 
other year  there  is  no  question  but 
what  we  shall  be  able  to  accommo- 
date the  international  association  wltfc 
a  couple  of  our  be.«t  amateur  skiers. 
The  annual  publlration  of  the  ski  as- 
sociation is  now  being  distributed  It 
contains  no  less  than  eightv  pages  of 
Interesting  reading  matter  and  is  pro- 
fusely illustrated,  several  copies  hav- 
ing been  mailed  to  members  of  the  Du- 
luth  club. 

There  will  be  a  scramble  at  the  con- 
vention for  the  next  national  tourna- 
ment, the  fact  that  the  as.soolation  In 
1914  will  celebrate  its  tenth  anniver- 
sary will  make  this  the  most  Import- 
ant in  our  history. 

Several  newsoaper  articles  having 
been  publi.«hed  Idtely.  originating  at 
Stoughton.  telling  us  that  any  amateur 
who  has  won  two  championships  must 
necessarily  become  a  professional  are 
very  much  misleading,  as  there  Is  no 
article-  in  the  national  constitution  re- 
fering  to  such  compulsory  conditions, 
and  the  reporter  who  publishes  such 
stuff  knows  nothing,  absolutely  noth- 
ing, about  what  he  is  talking.  The 
same  Is  the  case  with  the  reporter  who 
recently  furnished  an  article  for  pub- 
lication claiming  Barnev  Riley  as  the 
greatest  amateur  ski  jumper  In  the 
world.  This  is  stretching  things  some-

Washington.  Dec.  23.— Railroad  com-

control  the  regular  steamship  lines  of 
the  I'nited  States  and  have  destroyed

ther Conant,  Jr.,  commissioner  of  cor- 
l)orations,  In  a  report  just  made  to 
President   Taft.

upon  an  extenslv--»  Investigation,  force

LUTHER  CONANT,  JR. 


freight  trade  Is  especially  striking, 
says  Commissioner  Conant,  on  the  At- 
lantic and  Gulf  coasts  and  on  the  Great 
Lakes. 

Mater  lines  along  the  Eastern  sea- 
DoarU,  he  adds,  have  become  to  a  lar.q^ 
extent  au.x-illaries  or  subsidiaries  of 
railroads.  While  competition  exists  in 
greater  measure  on  the  Pacific  coast, 
the  commissioner  points  out  important 
instances  of  railroad  control  there 

It  is  a  striking  fact,  says  Commis- 
sioner <'onant,  that  between  a  number 
of  the  more  important  ports  on  the  At- 
lantic and  Gulf  coast  there  Is  only  a 
single  regular  service. 

„.  ^fT^  Haven  System  Accused. 

Xhe  !\ew  Haven  sytem,  it  is  charged. 

has    pursued    a    determined    policy    of 

Huppre.ssing   any   effective   competition 

on  Long  Island  sound  and  several    at 

least     of    Its    recent    acquisitions    must 

^H.^'*'"5^'*  ^/  ^"«  t''  this  policy." 
Elimination  of  competitio.i  also  was  an 
Important  factor,  says  Commissioner 
Conant,  In  the  New  Haven's  purchase 
of  a  majority  Interest  in  the  Merchants 
&  Miners  Transportation  company 

The  extensive  water  traffic  between 
New  York  city  and  .lew  England  ports 
13  almost  completely  controlled,  the  re- 

Eort  adds,  by  the  New  Ifaven  road  or 
y  the  Eastern  ^Steamship  com  pan  v, 
in  which  the  New  Haven  Is  a  consider- 
able stockholder,  though  claiming  to 
have  no  voice  in  the  management. 
Southern  Pacific's  Attitude. 
The  Southern  Pacific  likewise  is  de- 
clared to  have  shown  "a  disposition  to 
restrict  competition."  on  the  Atlantic 
coast,    although    Its      steamship      lines 

are  really  a  water  extension  of  that 
company's  rail  lines."  In  addition,  th« 
report  says,  "the  control  of  the  South- 
ern Pacific  by  the  Union  Pacific  (re- 
cently dissolved  by  the  United  States 
supreme  court)  obviously  tended  to 
limit  the  Importance  of  competition  by 
the  Southern  Pacifies  rail  and  water 
route. 

The   railroads  controlling   the  great- 


est tonnage  of  steamship  lines,  accord- 
ing to  Mr.  Conant,  are  the  New  Haven 
system.  Union  Pacific,  Southern  PaciHc, 
the  Pennsylvania,  New  York  Central 
and  Central  of  Georgia. 

Nearly  all  the  Important  anthracite 
fleets  on  the  North  Atlantic  coasts,  the 
commissioner  says,  are  owned  by  a  few 
great   anthracite  railroads. 

Put    Canals   Out    of   Business 

A  number  of  the  principal  canals 
of  the  country  have  been  abandoned 
or  fallen  Into  disuse,  the  report  de- 
clares,   because   of   railroad   Influence. 

'The  conditions  here  set  forth,"  says 
Mr.  Conant,  "cannot  fall  to  command 
attention.  So  far  as  the  eastern  part 
of  the  country  Is  concerned,  water  lines 
have  to  a  large  extent  become  auxil- 
iaries or  subsidiaries  of  railroads. 
These  considerations  force  considera- 
tion of  the  policy  to  be  adopted  toward 
such  water  carriers.  Since  water  com- 
petition has  in  considerable  measure 
been  restricted  by  railroad  control  of 
water  lines,  this  fact  must  be  taken 
account  of. 

The  interstate  commerce  commission 
has  bj'  recent  legislation  secured  a  ';on- 
slderable  increase  in  jurisdiction  over 
joint  rail-and-water  traffic,  particu- 
larly with  respect  to  the  establishment 
of  joint  rail-and-water  rates  and  the 
equitable  division  of  such  rates  be- 
tween the  co-carriers.  This  is  a  matter 
of  vital  importance.  If  there  is  to  be 
any  successful  attempt  to  Increase 
competition  in  domestic  water  traffic, 
it  seems  certain  that  such  joint  rate 
arrangements  should  be  far  more  gen- 
erally established  than  at  present. 

"Since  Joint  through  rates  are  almost 
invariably  less  than  the  sum  of  the 
local  rates,  a  steamship  line  deprived 
of  the  advantage  of  a  joint  rate  ar- 
rangement with  railroads  on  an  equi- 
table basis  is  practically  unable  to 
compete  with  a  rival  enjoying  it." 
What   Twenty   Roads   Control. 

The  report  says  that  twenty  rail- 
roads of  the  country  control  steam 
vessels  and  barges  of  810,000  gross 
tonnage  engaged  exclusively  in  do- 
mestic   trade,    and    continues: 

'The  tonnage  of  the  New  Haven  sys- 
tem is  the  largest,  aggregating  a  little 
over  200.000  gross  tons.  Next  in  im- 
portance is  the  Union  Pacific-Southern 
Pacific,  with  a  grand  total  (excluding 
tonnage  engaged  In  foreign  trade)  of 
over  150,000  gross  tons.  The  Pennsyl- 
vania Railroad  company's  water  lines 
have  C8,500  gross  tons  in  steamers  and 
8,500  tons  in  barges;  the  New  York 
Central,  over  50,000  gross  tons;  the 
Central  of  Georgia  railway,  over  40,- 
000    gross    tons. 

"The  total  capitalization  of  water 
lines  controlled  by  these  railroads  (this 
not  covering  holding  companies  and 
several  very  important  unincorporated 
services)  aggregates  $53,339,375  in 
stock  and  $31,263,«87  in  bonded  debt. 
Of  the  stock  $40,223,800  and  of  the 
bonds  $19,911,137  are  owned  by  eigh- 
teen railroads  or  their  subsidiaries. 
In  most  instances  railroads  own  prac- 
tically all  the  stock  of  the  separately 
Incorporated  water  lines  which  they 
control." 

On  Eastern  Seaboard. 

Of  the  traffic  not  dominated  hv 
railroads  along  the  Eastern  seaboard, 
the  great  bulk,  adds  the  report,  is 
controlled  by  two  important  steamship 
consolidations,  the  Atlantic,  Gulf  and 
West  Indies  steamship  lines  and  the 
Eastern  Steamship  corporation.  With 
a  few  exceptions  the  constituent  com- 
panies of  these  consolidations  were 
formerly  subsidiaries  of  the  Consoli- 
dated Steamship  Lines,  organized  by 
Charles  W.  Morse,  and  which  collapsed 
In    1907. 

M'hlle  there  appears  to  be  no  inter- 
ownership  of  stock  between  these  two 
steamship  consolidations,  Mr.  Conant 
adds,  they  have  several  directors  in 
common,  indicating  a  considerable 
community  of  Interest. 

On    the    Great    Lakes. 

On  the  Great  Lakes  all  the  import- 
ant passenger  and  package  freight 
lines.  It  is  declared,  are  owned  by 
railroads.  In  the  local  nackage  freight 
traffic  there  are  a  large  number  of 
Independent  water  carriers.  Several  of 
the  principal  lake  fleets  handing  ore 
coal  and  lumber.  It  is  said,  are  under 
the  control  of  Important  industrial 
concerns,    the   largest  being   the   Pitts- 


burg    Steamship     company,     controlled 
by  the  United  States  Steel  corporation. 

On  the  Pacific  coast,  the  commis- 
sioner found  Independent  steamship 
lines  forming  an  Important  factor  In 
the  coastwise  trade,  but  said  several 
water  lines  were  under  railroad  con- 
trol, Instancing  the  interest  of  the 
Union  Pacific-Southern  Pacific  in  the 
Pacific  Mail  and  the  San  Francisco  & 
Portland  Steamship  company.  The 
Southern  Pacific  also  controls  a  fleet 
of  oil  vessels,  belonging  to  the  Asso- 
ciated Oil  company,  he  adds; 
On   the   Mississippi. 

Steamboat  lines  on  the  Mississippi 
river.  Mr.  Conant  says,  have  largelv 
succumbed  to  railroad  competition  or 
natural  difficulties.  The  great  bulk 
of  bituminous  coal,  the  principal  item 
of  traffic  today  on  the  Ohio  and  Mis- 
sissippi rivers  is  handled,  he  adds,  by  a 
single  industrial  line — the  Mononga- 
hela  River  Consolidated  Coal  &  Coke 
company,  controlled  by  the  Pittsburg 
Coal  company. 

Railroads  now  control,  continues  Mr. 
Conant  about  90  per  cent  of  the  mile- 
age of  the  few  private  canals  still  In 
operation. 

"On  the  Erie  canal,  the  most  Import- 
ant artificial  waterway  in  the  coun- 
try," says  the  commissioner,  "the  west- 
bound business  has  virtually  passed 
under  the  control  of  the  rallroafls 
v.'hile  eastbound  traffic  hks  been  large- 
ly diverted  from  the  canal  by  the  re- 
peated reductions  In  rail  rates,  rate  ar- 
rangements and  railroad  control  of 
terminal  facilities.  These  reductions  in 
rail  rates  are,  however,  to  a  consider- 
able extent  attributable  to  canal  com- 
petition." 

The  report  deals  chiefly  with  regu- 
lar through  passenger  and  freight 
steamship  lines  and  fakes  no  account 
of  tramp  steamers.  It  lis  the  fourth 
installment  as  the  result  of  the  bu- 
reau of  corporations'  extensive  inves- 
tigation of  water  traffic,  the  three  j>re- 
vlous  reports  relating  to  water  routes, 
volume  of  traffic  and  the  control  of 
terminals.

"People  desiring  to  give  away  Christ-

not  send  them  to  the  poor  farm,  when 
there  are  poor  families  In  Duluth  who

EXTRAVACANCE  IH 

THE  PHILIPPINES 

Judge  Elliott  Tells  of  Differ- 
ences With  Governor 
Forbes. 

Minneapolis,  Minn.,  Dec.  23. — Judge 
Charles  B.  Elliott,  who  announced  in 
Washington  a  week  ago  that  his  resig- 
nation as  secretary  of  commerce  and 
police  of  the  Philippine  Islands  was  at 
the  request  of  President  Taft,  reactied 
Minneapolis  Saturday  evening  and 
talked  freely  of  the  disagreements 
with  Governor  General  W.  Cameron 
Forbes  which  led   to  his  retirement. 

He  makes  charges  of  gross  extrava- 
gance against  Forbes.  When  Forbes 
took  office  there  was  a  surplus  of 
$3,r.00.000  in  the  treasury,  and  at  the 
end  of  the  last  fiscal  year  he  showed 
a  deficit  of  more  than  $4,000,000. 

"He  ran  the  islands  like  a  vast  pri- 
vate estate,"  said  Judge  Elliott. 
'Funds  were  used  for  the  laying  out  of 
a  polo  grounds.  He  emulated  Roose- 
velt in  relegating  law  to  the  back- 
ground whenever  he  wanted  to  carry 
out  a  certain  project. 

"Mr.  Forbes'  complaint  was  that  I 
was  an  obstructionist.  I  confess  that 
I  have  been.  I  have  protested  as  far 
as  I  was  able  against  what  I  felt  to  be 
Illegal  acts.  I  have  fought  them  with 
some  pretty  drastic  opinions,  I  admit. 
I  have  said,  and  still  say,  that  It  Is  an 
Infernal  outrage-  to  run  the  govern- 
ment of  the  Philippines  with  so  little 
regard  for  law.  We  are  trying  to 
teach  these  people  how  to  run  a  gov- 
ernment, and  that  sort  of  conduct  Is 
setting  them  a  poor  example.  I  op- 
posed Governor  General  Forbes  con- 
tinually on  those  matters,  without  any 
personal  feeling  on  my  part.  I  did  not 
know  there  was  any  on  his  until  after 
my  resignation  had  been  requested. 

"I  am  satisfied  with  the  record  as  It 
stands.  There  will  be  a  congressional 
investigation  of  the  administration  in 
the  Philippines,  I  was  told  In  Wash- 
ington, Just  as  soon  as  the  Democrat-^ 
get  in  full  control  next  spring.  It  will 
bo  a  hostile  Investigation  and  It  will 
bring  out  some  sensational  nnatter.  I 
have  done  nothing  to  stir  up  the  in- 
vestigation, but  my  protest  will  be 
found  on  file  as  to  all  the  acts  I  felt 
to  be  Illegal  or  unwarranted.  Much 
public  money  has  been  wasted  or  mis- 
spent. The  governor  general  has  In- 
terfered often  In  the  administration  of 
justice  to  favor  personal  or  political 
friends."

"I've  gone  through  every  'dog-goned'  shop  in  town.  I'm 
tired  out.  And  I'm  near-sighted  from  looking  at  things.  There's 
n*  thing  new  I  This  great  annual  swap  affair  has  me  beaten  to

"Every  time  I  try  to  buy  her  a  gift  it's  the  same  thing  over

rieties of  gloom.  The  stores  are  packed.  I  never  saw  such  a  mob 
in  all  my  life.     This  Christmas  mania  is  worse  than  an  epidemic. 

"But  I've  always  given  her  something,  some  way — something 
nice.  She  always  knows  just  what  I  need  and  like  most  of  all. 
It's  intuition.  Every  woman  has  it.  They  don't  seem  to  mind

COUNCIL  WILL  BE  ASKED 
TO  MAKE  INVDiTIGATION 


Inquiry  Into  Advisability  of 

Employing  Expert  Is 

Proposed. 


Opponents  of  Plan  Are  Un- 
der Misapprehension 
as  to  Purpose. 


A  resolution  will  be  Introduced  at 
the  council  meeting  tonight  providing 
for  a  committee  to  investigate  the  ad- 
visability of  employing  an  expert  to 
map  out  a  plan  of  organization  for  sub- 
mission to  the  commission  on  talting 
office. 

A  somewhat  similar  resolution  was 
Introduced  last  Monday  ni^ht  and  was 
defeated.  Some  of  the  aldermen  are 
believed  to  have  been  under  a  mls- 
talten  impr<?ssion  as  to  the  purport  of 
the  resolution  and  others  are  said  to 
have  given  the  matter  more  considera- 
tiun  and  to  have  changt-d  their  atti- 
tude  as   a    result. 

The  proposed  resolution  will  commit 
the  city  to  nothing.  It  will  not  pro- 
vide for  the  expenditure  of  a  cent  of 
city  money.  It  will  merely  provide 
for  an  investigation  of  the  question  in 
order  that  the  council  may  have  all 
possible  light  before  final  action  is 
taken. 

The  plan  suggested  by  The  Herald 
attracted  general  attention.  It  has 
been  widely  discussed  by  citizens, 
many  interviews  liave  oeen  published 
in  support  of  the  plan  and  some  in 
opposition     to     It. 

MlMapitrchenMion. 

The  opponents  of  the  employment 
of  an  expert  seem  to  be  laboring  un- 
der two  or  three  wrong   impressions. 

Expert  and  theorist  are  confused. 
Some  people  seem  to  believe  that  an 
expert  is  merely  a  theorist.  The  im- 
pression is  erroneous.  The  essential 
quality  of  an  expert  must  be  practi- 
cality. Any  man  brought  to  Duluth  to 
arrange  a  system  of  origination  for 
the  city  government  would  necessarily 
be  a  man  who  had  not  only  made  a 
study  of  city  government  but  had  been 
connected  with  the  practical  working 
out  of  methods  for  obtaining  economy 
and   efficiency. 

Some  others,  notably  some  of  the 
city  officials,  seem  to  think  that  an 
expert  would  be  merely  an  expert  in 
accounting.  If  the  accounting  system 
of  the  city  were  involved  at  all,  it 
would  be  merely  a  detail.  The  plan  is 
to  have  a  man  make  a  survey  of  the 
whole  city  government  and  co-ordinate 
all  its  details  in  a  comprehensive  sys- 
tem designed  to  obtain  the  greatest 
efficiency  at  the  greatest  economy. 
Accounting  would  very  lilcely  figure 
in  his  recommendations,  but  for  all 
anybody  knows  now  the  present  ac- 
counting system  of  the  -city  Is  ade- 
quate. 

The  third  point  on  which  there  is 
a  misapprehension,  purposely  fostered 
by  certain  opposition,  is  the  expense 
of  obtaining  an  expert.  Tlie  statement 
that  siich  a  man  would  cost  $4,000  to 
$5,000  is  absurd  on  its  face.  Men  fully 
capable  of   doing   the    work   intended —

CHRISTMAS  BILL 

AT  THE  OBPHEUW 

New    Vaudeville    Program 

Has  Many  Features  to 

Attract  the  Children. 

It's  a  good  children's  show  at  the 
Orpheum  this  week,  and  judging  from 
the  verdict  of  the  big  audience  that 
filled  the  theater  last  night,  the 
grown-ups  find  much  in  it  to  amuse 
them. 

"Puss  In  Boot.<9,"  the  headline  act 
this  week,  is  about  the  biggest  and 
most  elaborately  staged  musical  com- 
edy act  the  Duluth  theater  has  yet 
presented.  Tliere  are  four  scenes,  and 
many  changes  of  costume  for  the  ex- 
cellent chorus.  It  is  an  elaborate 
act  for  a  vaudeville  theater  to  stage. 
The  company  comprises  twenty-five 
people,  mostly  pretty  chorus  girls,  and 
it  carries  its  own  musical  director. 
The  scenery  is  quite  pretentious,  and 
the  costumes  would  do  credit  to  any 
musical  comedy  or  comic  opera.  Some 
of  the  jokes  carry  the  dust  of  age, 
but  such  a  hard-working  comedian  as 
Will  J.  Kennedy  is  bound  to  get  a 
laugh  sooner  or  later.  He  got  them 
sooner  last  evening,  and  the  audience 
seemed  to  be  with  him  almost  from 
the  start.  The  little  company  boasts 
of  several  excellent  voices,  although 
Miss  Gertrude  Taylor,  as  Colin,  the 
youthful  hero,  was  suffering  from  such 
a  cold  yesterday  that  she  could  scarce- 
ly say  her  lines,  and  singing  was  out 
of  the  question.  As  a  whole  "Puss  in 
Boots"  compares  very  favorably  with 
an  average  musical  comedy,  and  it 
makes  an  excellent  children's  attrac- 
tion, owing  to  the  clever  work  of  Da- 
vid  Abrahams,   Jr.,   as    "Puss." 

Charles  Olcott,  who  looks  like  a  col- 
lege graduate  of  very  recent  date,  has 
a  clever  little  vaudeville  novelty  in 
his  travesty  on  a  musical  comedy.  With 
the  assistance  of  a  piano  and  some 
musical  compositions  of  his  own,  he 
shows  just  how  a  comic  opera  is 
thrown  together.  He  has  a  "fat"  place 
on  the  bill,  immediately  following  the 
headline  act,  wliich  gives  him  a  chance 
to  burlesque   it. 

Mr.  and  Mrs.  Jack  McGreevy  got  a 
most  enthusiastic  welcome  on  their 
leturn,  and  "The  Village  Fiddler  and 
the  Country  Maid"  never  drew  more 
laughs  in  tne  many  performances  they 
have  given  In  the  Duluth  theater  than 
they  did  last  evening.  The  McGreevys 
have  a  sure-fire  comedy  hit  in  their 
little   turn. 

Apdale's  animals  have  the  most  en- 
tertaining of  trained  animal  acts.  The 
most  pleasing  feature  of  tlie  act  Is  the 
free  and  easy  manner  in  which  the 
animals  are  allowed  to  roam  about  the 
stage.  There  are  three  bears,  several 
monkeys,  a  troupe  of  dogs,  and  an  ant 
eater.  The  monkeys  and  some  of  the 
dogs  roam  about  at  will,  and  one  little 
fox  terrier  keeps  the  audience  amused 
throughout  the  act  with  his  efforts  to 
get  re'Venge  on  the  monkeys  for  their 
constant  teasing.  In  fact,  so  occupied 
are  the  spectators  with  the  constant 
warfare  between  the  dogs  and  the 
monkeys,  that  they  miss  most  of  the 
clever  tricks  of  the   other  animals. 

Bertlsh  is  a  much-muscled  young 
man  of  apt)arently  small  build,  who 
performs  wonderful  feats  of  strength. 
In  both  acrobatic  lines  and  weight 
lifting.  He  puts  twice  his  own  weight 
above  his  head  with  a  one-arm  lift. 

Hal  and  Francis  have  a  lively  little 
comedy  turn  called  "The  Stock  Farm." 
and  they  start  this  Christmas  week 
bill  off  In  a  brisk  and  entertaining 
way. 

The  pictures,  including  views  of  the 
Balkan  war,  complete  a  very  strong 
bill,  which  will  continue  all  weelc  with 
a  daily  matinee.  Manager  Billings  an- 


men  who  have  had  experience  as 
municii)al  specialists — may  be  obtained 
lor  approximately  $300  a  month.  Tne 
coHt  of  making  a  survey  of  the  city 
and  working  out  an  organization 
would  be  at  the  outside  $1,000.  Tne 
work  could  be  done  in  the  three  months 
remaining  before  the  commission  takes 
orfice  and  the  recommendations  of  ihv 
expert  could  be  available  for  the  com- 
missioners when  they  take  hold. 
City    Shoald    Start    HJKht. 

The  city  of  Duluth  wants  to  start 
right.  Everybody  is  agreed  as  to  that. 
To  start  right  the  commisslonera  must 
be  fully  Informed,  not  only  as  to  the 
city  government  of  Duluth,  but  as  to 
methods  employed  in  other  cities.  In- 
formation as  to  tlie  details  of  the 
various  departments  of  the  present 
government  must  be  assembled.  The 
head  of  each  department  will  have 
recommendations  to  make.  The  ex- 
perience of  other  cities  must  be 
studied.  Out  of  all  that  will  come  some 
system    of   organization. 

Unless  steps  are  taken  this  winter 
for  assembling  facts  and  recommenda- 
tions for  the  "commission,  much  time 
will  be  lost  in  preliminaries  after  the 
commissioners  take  office.  They  will 
be  anxious  to  make  a  record  and  might 
start  with  the  machinery  already  at 
hand,  with  the  intention  of  working 
out  a  better  organization  later.  If  a 
system  of  organization,  based  on  ex- 
pert study  and  proved  by  the  exper- 
ience of  other  cities,  were  submitted 
to  them  when  they  take  office,  they 
would  be  able  to  start  right  immediate- 
ly   instead    of   waiting    until   later. 

Those  who  claim  that  the  commis- 
sioners will  be  fully  capable  of  work- 
ing out  an  organization  without  ex- 
pert advice  are  presupposing  the  elec- 
tion of  a  commission  of  experts.  The 
chances  are  that  the  men  elected  will 
not  be  men  who  have  made  a  study  of 
municipal  government.  They  will  be 
men  of  judgment,  executive  ability  and 
honesty,  but  they  will  not  be  municipal 
experts.  They^~wlll  have  a  big  task 
and  their  way  will  be  made  easy  by  the 
work  of  a  specialist  in  municipal  af- 
fairs. 

Many  Indoritements. 

The  plan  to  employ  an  expert  has 
been  indorsed  by  City  Comptroller  W. 
S.  McCormlck,  City  Treasurer  Fred  J. 
Voss,  City  Engineer  John  Wilson,  City 
Assessor  James  Myron,  S.  R.  Hat<:h,

Former  Mayor  M.  B.  Cullum,  H.  V. .

former  members  of  the  council  have 
Indorsed    it.

have  had  experience  with  the  efficiency

TELLS  DlTAilFOF 
PERUVIAN  HORRORS 

American  Consul  Fuller  Re- 
ports in  Person  at 
Washington. 

Washington,  Dec.  23. — Stewart  Ful- 
ler, American  consul  at  Iquitos,  who 
investigated  the  reported  outrages 
against  the  Peruvian  Indians  in  the 
Putumayo  rubber  district,  arrived  In 
M'ashington  today  and  conferred  with 
state  department  officials. 

The  outrages  brought  to  light  by 
Consul  Fuller's  Investigation  are  such 
as  to  give  rise  to  one  of  the  most 
perplexing  Latin  -  American  probhnns 
with  which  the  state  departhient  has 
had  to  deal,  especially  in  view  of  the 
fact   that   British  corporations   are   the 


principal  operators  in  the  Peruvian 
rubber  field. 

Consul  Fuller's  report,  mailed  before 
his  departure  for  the  United  States, 
had  previously  reached  the  depart- 
ment, but  he  supplemented  the  dis- 
closures made  therein  with  other  in- 
formation, all  tending  to  show  the 
horror  of  the  outrages  perpeti-ated 
upon  the  Indians  by  their  foreign  em- 
ployers, as  well  as  the  gravity  of  the 
problem  with  which  this  government 
has  to  deal. 

The  principal  purpose  of  Consul  Ful- 
ler's mission  was  to  ascertain  whether 
the  outrages  against  the  Indian  rubber 
gatherers  had   ceased,   as   the   Peruvitp 

fovernment  Insists  is  the  case,  but  this 
act  cannot  be  known  until  the  con- 
sul's report  is  transmitted  to  con- 
gress, which  already  has  called  for 
it    by   a  special   resolution.

International  exposition  at  Harbor 
View  when  Minnesota's  Panama  ex- 
position commissioners  received  a

thorities. At  the  same  time  Ambassa-

a  deed  to  the  site  of  tlie  exposition 
palace  to  be  built  by  Holland.  A  mili- 
tary pageant  lent  splendor  to  the  cere- 
monies. Diplomats  of  foreign  coun- 
tries and  other  dignitaries  were  pres-

ercises battleships  in  the  harbor  and 
cannon    at    the    portals    of    the    Golden

SHE'S  INDEED  PRECOCIOUS 


Little  Winifred  Stoner  at 
10  Is  Prepared  for  Col- 
lege—Speaks  Eight 
Languages. 


w 


INIFRED  SACKVILLE  STO- 
NER, JR.,  of  Pittsburg,  who 
was  only  10  years  old  on  Aug. 
19  last,  is  already  prepared 
for  college.  in  addition  to 
studying  astronomy  and  some 
other  branchc?s.  She  speak.'s 
eight  languages;  she  can  recite  a  thou- 
sand poems  and  she  has  written  nearly 
500  poems  and  Jingles  herseif,  says  the 
New    York  Sun. 

Winifred  plays  the  piano  well.  With 
no  lessons  except  the  game  of  'making 
up  stories  on  the  piano,"  she  can  read 
ovei  a  page  of  Schub-^rt'ft  "Serenade," 
close  the  book  and  play  it  accurately 
and  with  mych  expression.  She  can 
also  hear  a  difficult  selection  played 
and  so  keen  is  lier  concentration  she 
can  immediately  sit  dbvvn  at  the  piano 
and  play  it.  Winitred  draws  well  and 
prints  admirably.  Like  Browning,  one 
would  imagine  she  will  hardly  know 
which  to  choose  for  lier  life  v.ork — 
music,  art  or  writing — but  .she  is  very 
decided  as  to  what  slie  expects  to  do. 
Winifred  is  going  to  earn  and  buy  and 
be  the  editor  of  a  great  children's 
magazine. 

When  I  tell  mv  friends  about  this 
little  girl  they  exclaim,  "Poor  thing! 
She  has  had  no  childhood,  she  will  die 
of  too  much  study."  So  here  is  ques- 
tion No.  1  to  answer  in  the  game  of 
motherhood   which   her   case   present's. 

How  can  readers  account  for  the  fact 
that  Winifred  is  a  perfectly  normal, 
happy  child,  romping,  singing,  loving 
and  lovable,  gay  as  the  canary  she  is 
giving  the  freedom  of  the  entire  house, 
and  teaching  to  whi.stle  and  to  keep 
perfect  time  to  all  the  music  tnat  sh? 
whistles?  Winifred  has  a  hundred 
dolls.  As  fast  as  she  learns  anything 
.she  imparts  it  to  her  dolls  and  pets. 
Sl'.e  is  ardently  devoted  to  sports.  She 
swims,  races,  plays  ball,  dances  and 
physically  she  is  as  well  as  she  is 
mentally.  Her  little  muscles  are  strons 
as  armor  bolts.  She  is  as  large  as  an 
ordinary  12-year-old  girl  and  siie  cau 
walk  five  miles  wllhout  the  least  fa- 
tigue. 

I  looked  to  the  father  and  mother  to 
account  for  this  wonderful  and  lovely 
phenomenon  of  childhood,  anj  I  dis- 
covered the  answer  to  question  No.  1. 
Mrs.  Ston<^r  said  tc  me: 

"Yes.  We  studied  prenatal  Influence 
with  Cherie,"  for  thus  she  calls  her 
little  daughter,  "a.nd  I  tell  you  that 
children  born  of  love  have  great  ad- 
vantages over  others.  Every  love 
thougiit  breathed  by  the  expectant 
mother  must  have  influence  upon  the 
child.  Clierle  is  a  love  child,  and  it 
is  love  which  has  made  lier  what  she 
l."3.  Any  olilld  can  develop  just  as 
Winifred  has  done.  She  is  not  a  ge- 
nius, she  is  just  a  child  that  has  h,id 
her  intere.sts  aroused,  so  that  she  lias 
wished  to  drink  deep  draughts  from 
knowledge's   fountain." 

Q'lestion  number  two.  whl.?h  the 
reader  may  ask.  Is,  How  sliould  this 
training  begin?  Mrs.  Stoner  explained 
her  mcthod.s.  I- quote  her  own  words: 

"From  the  day  Winifred  vas  born 
.•^he  has  been  shown  beautiful  objects 
ond  has  heard  beautiful  thought.'?.  I 
have  talked  and  read  to  her,  reciting 
poems  and  scanning  Virgil.  All  young 
babies  sliould  be  shown  gr^at  pictures, 
hear  great  poems  and  talked  to  sen- 
sibly. Most  children  are  obliged  to 
l<arn  two  languages,  baby  language 
and  real  language." 

Question  number  three  from  mothers 
v/ill  be.  Is  a  child  physically  able  to 
hive  her  mind  developed  so  rapidly? 
Winifred's  parents  have  for  the  most 
part  kept  their  child  out  of  doora. 
They  think  It  a  crime  to  imprison  chil- 
dren behind  brick  walls.  If  parents  can 
afford  to  teai;h  tl;eir  own  children 
they  believe  thoy  should  do  so  and  not 
help    to   crowd    the    public    schools. 

Winifred's  father  is  a  colonel  and  a 
.=  urgeon  In  the  marine  hospital  service 
of  the  United  States.  Now  he  Is  sta- 
tioned in  Pittsburg.  From  him  Wini- 
fred undoubtedly  gets  her  splendid 
physical  care,  and  she  is  a  perfectly 
well  child.  She  Is  practical,  like  her 
father,   and  possess^iS  .ill   her   mother's 


love  of  art  and  music  and  the  gift  of 
writing. 

Readers  in  question  number  four 
will  say:  "What  are  these  games  she 
has  invented  for  her  child?  Llow  did 
rile   teach  her   baby?" 

From  babyhood  Winifred  has  heard 
no  ronsense.  When  she  was  one  year 
old  she  understood  that  the  three  fair- 
ies who  would  bring  her  everything 
worth  while  were  observation,  con- 
centration and  intense  Interest.  She 
has  never  been  made  to  studj'.  She  has 
never  had  a  lesson  in  anything  until 
-she  has  asked  for  it.  Her  knowledge 
has  been  put  into  such  interea'.ing  and 
fXcitlng  games  by  her  motiier  that 
Chorie  would  rather  play  geography 
than  craps,  and  she  talks  about  his- 
tory as  she  would  of  things  to  eat. 
Cherie  is  an  inventor  herself,  and  she 
and  I  played  her  cancellation  game. 
though  of  course  she  passed  by  can- 
cellation pleasures  three  years  ago. 

"You  can  be  Napoleon  and  I'll  be 
Wellington,"  she  explained,  "and  we'll 
write  numbers  on  these  slips  of  paper 
and  drop  them  into  this  bowl.  Now, 
you  draw  and  then  I  will,  and  we  call 
these    our    battalions.'' 

So    it   stood    this   way: 

2  X  5  X  14  X  4 


li  X  !}  X  13  X  10 


"Now.  the  fight  is  on.  Napoleon  on 
the  upper  line.  I  see  that  you  have 
turned  your  little  2  battalions  on  my 
12,  and  killed  6.  I  will  annihilate 
your  6  battalions.  You  turn  your  4 
on  my  8  and  kill  all  but  2.  Well,  I 
v.-ill  charge  your  14  and  kill  7.  So,  1 
win,  for  you  Napoleon,  only  have  7 
men   left,   and   I  have   180  men." 

Then    it    stood    this    way: 


(2)  X  (6>  X  (14)  X  (4)=7 


(12)  X  <S)  X  18x  10      180

It  sounds  simple,  but  how  many  lit- 
tle children  have  puzzled  their  tired 
gray  m.atter  over  cancellation,  and 
said  it  over  sing.^ong.  wasting  their 
energy,  when  Winifred  by  a  game  has 
caught  it  Joyously  and  easily.  Num- 
erous teachers  have  criticised  Mrs. 
Stoner  and  her  games,  but  the  fact  re- 
mains Winifred  Is  ready  for  college, 
and  she  actually  knows,  as  examina- 
tions with  others  preparing  for  col- 
lege have  proved.  Mrs.  Stone  invent- 
ed games  for  geography,  history,  Es- 
peranto and  other  branches.  She 
showed  me  a  drawer  full  of  packs  of 
cards — the  games  by  which  Winifred 
has  been  taught.  I  turned  from  the 
drawer  to  the  happy  little  girl  who 
actually  has  the  knowledge  In  her  big 
little  head. 

She  writes  all  her  articles  on  her 
typewriter,  and  has  done  so  since  she 
was  3  years  old.  By  means  of  th.> 
typewriter  she  learned  to  spell  and 
also  to  become  familiar  with  beautiful 
poems.  Construction  and  punctuation 
came  easily  this  way.  Mrs.  Stoner 
thinks  that  typpwrlters  ."should  be  in- 
troduced Into  all  public  schools.  In  or- 
der to  do  away  with  the  bugbetyr 
method  of  learning  to  spell  by  means 
of   spelling   books. 

How  does  the  child  remember  such 
a  store  of  learning?  Mrs.  Stoner  ex- 
plained  It  easily. 

"Winifred  has  worked  out  a  way  to 
put  all  her  knowledge  into  nutshells, 
so  she  won't  forget."  .said  her  mother. 
"She  keeps  the  keys  to  open  her  sto'-f- 
house  of  knowledge.  For  example  she 
takes  the  rulers  of  Great  Britain, 
writes  their  names,  and  opposite  she 
puts  their  characteristics.  Then  she 
composes  a  poem  about  them,  and  by 
the  time  It  is  completed  she  knows 
the  rulers  by  heart.  So  she  has  done 
with  the  presidents  of  the  United 
States  and  with  the  bones  of  her  body. 
The  poem  of  the  bones  she  calls  'The 
Bony  Song.'  " 

"Oh,  mother,"  cried  Winifred,  "now 
you  have  told  her  the  secret,  and  I 
wished  to  surprise  her  by  giving  her 
my  "Bony  Song." 

Winifred  is  a  charming  little  hostess 
She    recites   snatclies   of   verse   in    eight 
different  languages,   played   the   piano 
and  showed  me  how  Ninita,  the  canair 
wculd    whistle    always    wh'en    she    did 
She   had    taught   Nlnlta   all    this    in    ton 
•lays,   for   the   bird   had  oome   as  a  gift 
to    her    only    a.  few    days    before.     She 
urged  me  to  come  to  dinner,  and  naive- 
ly strengthened   her  invitation  by  say- 
ing she   would   feeri   me   on   olives   and 
candied    cherries,    her    favorites.     Then 
she    kissed    her    mother,    and    skipped 
gayly    out    on    the    veranda    and    was 
lost   In   her   book   until   I    went   out   to 
say  good-by  to  her.     She  is  really  un- 
ppoll'^d.    ani    she    instinctively   has    the 
.sense   to   know   how   much    there   is   to 
be  learned  and  that  she  can  only  hope 
to  grasp  a  little. 

She  Is  the  happiest  ehlM  I  have  ever 
met.  When  I  said  this  to  her  mother 
Mrs.    Stoner    replied: 

"Yes,   and   I  always   wish   her   to  be

commercial,  educational  and  industrial

"We  people  of  Minnesota  are  thor- 
oughly alive  to  the  possibilities  of  this

"We  of  Minnesota  have  much  In  com- 
mon with  your  state.  We  hibernate 
In  California.  I  predict  that  the  first 
man  to  come  in  February  of  19ir.  and 
the  last  man  to  leave  in  December  of 
the  same  year  will  be  a  man  from  the 
North   Star   state." 


happy:  and  to  do  this  she  must  not  be 
a  lopsided  genius.  I  do  not  wish 
Cherie  to  be  a  genius.  i?he  must  know 
enough  art  to  appreciate  the  art  of 
others  and  her  own;  enough  of  music 
to  appreciate  all;  but  I  do  not  wi.4h 
her  to  specialize.  Great  people  so 
often  are  not  happy.  I  wish  her  to  be 
happy    and    to    do    good." 

Winifred  is  already  an  altruist.  She 
has  just  been  writing  some  stories 
about  the  animals  In  Highland  Zcio, 
Pittsburg,  and  so  distressed  is  she 
about  the  elephant,  Mrs.  Guskey, 
that  she  has  asked  the  public  through 
her  article  to  gtt  Mrs.  Guskey  a  good 
husband  from  the  jungles  of  India  and 
that  the  couple  ma>'  have  a  house  to 
themselves  in  the  park  and  not  be 
chained  in  one  spot  all  the  years. 
She  started  the  public  subscription  by 
giving  all  her  first  month's  salary  to 
Mrs.   Guskev. 

Like  her  mother^  Winifred  believes 
in  woman  suftragflT, ,'  Qlt^e  has  written 
several  poems  In  behalf  of  equal  fran- 
chise rights,  which  have  been  pub- 
lished in  various  ne^fspapers  and  mag- 
azines. Her  "Vftlentineg  for  Suffra- 
gettes" are  decidedly  clever  and  have 
helped  the  cause.  She  and  her  mother 
are  inviting  In  the  boys  and  girls  of  all 
the  neighijorhood,  and  they  invent  suf- 
frage games  and  have  talks.  M'-s. 
Stoner  believes  in  explaining  suffrage 
to  the  boys  and  girls.  They  are  the 
ones  who  will  soon  be  the  power  in 
America — "It  is  tive  little  ones  who 
lead   us,"    she   says.

Lowe  observatory.  Mount  Lowe,  Cal., 
has  written  a  book  containing  a  new 
view  of  mind,  man  and  life.  It  Is 
called  "Within  the  Mind  Maze."  He 
says  In  his  preface  that  Winifred 
.Sackville  Stoner,  Jr.,  has  been  its  in- 
spiration. 

The  manner  in  which  Winifred  mas- 
tered mathematics  will  give  mothers 
an  Idea  for  their  own  little  ones.  Mrs. 
Stoner  never  liked  mathematics  and 
neither  did  her  little  daughter  at  first. 
She  decided  she  ought  not  to  try  to 
teach  anything  which  she  did  not  lo\-e. 


POULTRY  HOUSE  ARCHITECTURE. 
Success  in  raising  and  keeping  folws 
and  particularly  in  getting  winter 
eggr,  depends  as  much  upon  the  poul- 
try houses  as  upon  the  stock,  their 
care  and  feeding.  The  three  ess<^ntial3 
of  a  good  house  are  that  it  shall  be 
dry,  receive  plenty  of  sunshine  and 
ventilation  without  drafts.  Any  house 
that  will  provide  these  things  should 
prove  successful,  no  matter  what  the 
form   of   construction   or   the   design. 

The  first  consideration  in  building 
«  poultry  house  is  its  location,  accord- 
ing to  Farm  and  Home.  It  is  important 
to  have  well  drained  soil  so  that  the 
ground  around  it  will  be  dry.  Tne 
buildings  should  also  be  located  near 
the  dwelling  house,  for  much  of  the 
work  of  caring  for  the  poultry  usually 
devolves  on  the  woman  members  of 
the  family  A  sunny  location,  well 
sheltered  from  the  north  winds,  is 
highly  desirable 

Dryness  in  the  house  itself  Is  the 
first  essential.  Next  to  actual  starva- 
tion nothing  Is  surer  to  reduce  the  egg 
yield  and  affect  the  health  of  tiie 
fowls  than  dampness  In  the  house. 
Wet  yards  mean  cold,  dirty  feet,  and 
this  In  turn  results  in  dirty  eggs  and 
less  of  them.  If  th(»  site  is  not  dry  It 
should  be  under-drained.  In  any  case 
the  foundation  should  be  high  enough 
above  grade  to  prevent  the  entrance 
of  surface  water.  On  dry  soil  a  dirt 
floor  may  be  used,  although  this  be- 
comes foul  if  not  removed  and  renewed 
each  year.  A  good  double  board  floor 
or  one   of  concrete   Is   tlie    best. 

Good  ventilation  is  essential,  but  It 
must  be  without  drafts.  If  the  build- 
ing is  tight  on  three  sides  and  over- 
head with  no  cracks  at  the  eaves  fir 
sill,  there  will  be  no  difficulty  with 
drafts.  If  one  or  more  window  open- 
ings or  a  i>art  of  the  front  is  covered 
with  muslin  cloth,  it  will  keep  out  the 
wind  during  the  cold  weather  and  at 
the  same  time  permit  a  good  circula- 
tion of  air  without  blowing  on  the 
fowls. 

Plenty  of  sunshine  in  winter  and 
spilng  is  the  third  essential.  This  la 
abundantly  provided  for  in  the  two- 
compartment  house,  which  can  be 
throxvn  almost  entirely  open  and  the 
building  flooded  with  light,  yet  there 
is  not  80  much  glass  that  it  will  be- 
come very  heated  Irj  the  daytime,  and 
likewise  excesslvelv  cold  at  night.  At 
least  50  per  cent  of  the  front  of  the 
house  should  consist,  of  openings  cov- 
ered by  glass   and  cloth. 


A  DIANA  OP   tut:    AIR. 

Los  Angeles  Tlme.s:  The  beautiful 
and  athletic  Eleanora  '  Sears,  at  a 
luncheon  at  Sherry's,  said  of  aviation: 

"I  like  the  biplane  well  enough,  and 
tiie  monoplane  I  am  simply  head  over 
heels  in  love  with." 

To  this  remark  one  of  Mis.=!  Sears' 
many  unsuccessful  suitors  answered 
reproachfully: 

"Ah,  another  case  of  man  being 
supplanted  by  macliinery!"

FROM 


Henricksen's, 


IDEAL  GIFT! 


Since  the  first  Christmas,  Gold,  Silver  and  Precious  Stones  have  been  con- 
sidered the  ideal  gifts.  Today,  in  Duluth,  these  are  found,  in  their  most  beautiful 
form,  at  Henricksen's.  It  is  because  of  their  rare  beauty,  and  their  known  high 
quality  that  the  gifts  from  Henricksen's  are  prized  above  all  others. 

DiamondsMakeaMerry  Christmas 

No  More  Pleasing  Gift  Can  Be  Made  Than  a  Diamond  to 

Your  Friends  and  Loved  Ones. 

The  rapid  increase  in  value  is  only  second  to  the  great  pleasure  of  owning 
one  of  these  remarkable  gems.  The  Henricksen  diamonds  are  superior  both  in 
cutting  and  brilliancy,  and  cost  no  more  than  stones  of  less  merit. 

A  beautiful  Christmas  diamond  can  be  secured  at  prices  ranging  from  $10.00 
to  many  hundreds  of  dollars.

Tt  was  stated  at  the  Northern  Pa- 
cific office  this  morning  that  the 
present  station  plans  at  West  Duluth 
would  not  be  revised,  as  reported 
yesterday    morning. 

Work  on  the  new  station  is  now  go- 
ing on  and  there  is  no  likelihood  of 
any  let  up  at  the  present  time.  A  com- 
mittee of  tht  West  Duluth  Commercial 
club  will  report  the  matter  to  the  state 
railroad  commission.  The  commission 
has  already  pass-d  on  the  plans  and

WOMAN  OVERCOME 
BY  GAS  FROM  STOVE 

Mrs.   Jver  Iverson   Uncon- 
scious When  Neighbor 
Discovers  Condition. 

Escaping  gas  from  a  coal  stove  near- 
ly caused  the  death  early  this  morning 
of  Mrs.  Iver  Iverson  of  313  North  Fifty- 
ninth   avenue    west. 

Mr.  Iverson,  who  is  employed  as  a 
foreman  at  the  steel  plant,  had  made 
a  fire  in  the  cook  stove  before  leav- 
ing for  his  work  at  5:30  o'clock  this 
morning.  One  of  the  stove  doors  had 
been  left  open  by  Mr.  Iverson  and  as 
a  result  escaping  gas  soon  filled  the 
house. 

Mrs.  1j.  Leno,  who  lives  on  the  floor 
below  the  Iversons,  smelled  the  gas 
about  6::J0  o'clock  and  immediately 
rushed  upstairs  to  investigate.  She 
found  Mrs.  Iverson  in  bed,  overcome  by

court  twice.  Do  La  Motte  winning  both 
times.  Tile  verdict  for  $1,100.  which 
was  returned  bv  a  .lury  'n  February, 
1!»10,  togttiu-r  with  interest  at  that 
time,  amounted  to  $1.2r>3.3i».  De  La 
Motte,  it  is  claimed,  took  half  by  vir- 
tue of  his  contract.  Witness  fees  fof 
expert  medical  testimony  and  other 
legal  charges  ate  up  the  re.st  of  tlie 
judgment.  Golik  was  left  without  a 
.suiKle  cent  and  is  today  dependent  on 
charity  and  a  charge  of  the  Associated 
Charities. 

Attorney  Summoned. 
In  district  court  .Saturday  afternoon 
Attornev  De  La  Motte  appeared  before 
Judge  I>lbell  on  an  order  to  show 
cause  why  he  should  not  make  a  resti- 
tution of  certain  money  claimed  to 
owing  to  Golik  or  be  punished  for  con- 
tempt of  court.  The  story  of  the  case 
was  largely  unfolded  at  this  proceed- 
ing. Mr.  De  La  Motte  appeared  In  his 
own  defense  and  G.  W.  C.  Ross  of  Uoss 
&  McKnight,  attorneys,  represented 
the  Associated  Charities  which  is  look- 
ing after  the  interests  of  Golik.  At  2 
o'clock  this  afternoon  the  case  came  on 
before  the  court  for  final  ai-guments. 

Golik  was  injured  on  July  29,  1909, 
while  in  the  employ  of  Erickson  & 
Long,  stripping  contractors,  on  the  Me- 
saba  range.  He  came  to  Duluth  with 
his  case.  His  story  of  the  case  is  that 
he  came  to  Duluth  to  engage  an  attor- 
ney, first  visiting  the  office  of  County 
Attorney  Jolin  H.  Norton.  He  gave  Mr. 
Norton  a  statement  of  his  case  but  did 
not  engage   him  at   the   time. 

Wniiie  in  Duluth  Golik  stopped  at  an 
Aurstrian  boarding  house.  He  claims 
that  while  there  he  was  visited  by  one 
Ljuobo  Bogicevich,  who  at  that  time 
was  associated  wltli  Attorney  De  La 
Motte  as  a  solicitor.  Bogicevich,  he 
claims,  persuaded  him  not  to  give  his 
case  to  the  county  attorney  but  rather 
take  it  to  what  he  was  pleased  to  term 
'the  best  lawyer  in  town."  Bogicevich 
talked  Golik  s  language,  and  with  little 
per.suasion  he  was  led  to  the  office  of 
Mr.  De  La  Motte. 

Contract  .Sisned. 
A  contract  was  .signed  in    this  office 
by   Golik  on   liis   visit. 

Golik  claims  that  he  told  De  La 
Motte  through  Bogicevich  as  an  Inter- 
preter, that  he  would  pay  him  10  per 
cent  for  his  services  and  denied  in 
court  Saturday  afternoon  that  he  had 
any  other  understanding  of  the  situ- 
ation. He  testified  that  nothing  was 
-«aid  at  that  time  about  paying  ex- 
penses. 

Mr.  De  La  Motte's  statement  regard- 
ing the  contract   follows: 

■  Prior  to  the  making  of  the  contract 
for  5"J  per  cent  (which  is  the  contract 
lliat  was  introduced  in  the  evidence  on 
this  hearing,  on  Dec.  I'l)  Golick  came 
into  my  office  several  times.  The  first 
time  he  wanted  to  have  a  contract 
made  for  10  per  cent  and  I  then  told 
him  I  would  have  nothing  to  do  with 
it.  He  went  out  and,  I  suppo.se,  inter- 
viewed some  other  lawyer  v.ho  told 
him  tliat  the  usual  charge  was  50  per 
cent  Then  he  carne  Ixack  to  my  office 
again  and  seemed  to  be  willing  to 
sign  the  contract.  The  contract  was 
lead  over  to  him  by  Mr.  Bogicevich  in 
ilip  Austrian  language  and  he  was 
asked  if  he  understood  it  and  he  said 
he   did. 

"Mr.  Golik  talks  some  Englisli  and 
understands  about  everything  you  sav 
to  him  in  ordinary  language.  I  then 
said  to  him  'Now  Paul,  do  you  under- 
stand that  this  contract  means  that 
you  are  to  get  one-half  and  I  am  to 
get  one-half."  and  he  said  that  he  un- 
derstood it,  and  I  then  said  'all  right' 
and  the  contract  was  signed  and  he 
made  his  mark  upon  the  contract. 
There  never  was  any  agreement  upoji 
my  part  to  take  the  case  for  10  per 
cent  although  there  was  an  attempt  on 
his  part  to  get  me  to  take  it,  which 
I  refused  to  do." 

Bogicevichs  testimony  was  to  the 
effect  that  the  final  agreement  was 
that  Golik  should  get  one-half  of  the 
net  damages;  the  case  to  be  main- 
tained entirely  out  of  the  other  half. 
The  money  collected  on  the  judgment 
which  was  finally  enterea  in  district 
court  in  Golik's  favor  against  the 
Erickson  &  Long  company  kas  as  fol- 
lows:

The  testimony  Saturday  showed  that 
Bokiccvich  who  had  quit  the  employ 
of  De  La  Motte  had  taken  the  doctors 
claims  for  witnesses  and  raised  the 
bills  to  $75  each  and  through  his  part- 
ner B.  M.  Golberg  had  sued  Golik  for 
each  amount.  Recovery  was  had  out 
of    the    Golik    judgment    for    $1,357.28. 

The     judgments    with    costs    against 
Golik   then   stood: 

Dr.    Cheney    $104.38 

Dr.    Walker    104.38 

Dr.     Stewart     $104.38 

Dr.    Deslauriers    151.06 


Total  for  doctors   $464.20 

Tlie  Dr.  Deslauriers  bill  also  Includ- 
ed, besides  the  $25  witness  fee,  a 
charge  of  $100  for  attending  Golik 
during  the   pendency   of   the   case. 

The  testimony  Saturday  to  the  effect 
that  when  judgments  were  recovered 
against  Golik  in  the  first  three  named 
cases,  Attornej-  Goldberg  returned  to 
each    of   the   doctors   $25. 

Golik  got  absolutely  nothing  from 
the  case  and  is  indebted  to  the  Bethel 
and  St.  Mary's  hospital  at  the  present 
time. 

He   has  a   wife   and   child    In  Croatia, 
Hungary.     He  is   38   years   old   and  has 
been   in   this  country  six   years. 
De  La   Hotte'ti    Statement. 

"I  was  retained  by  Paul  Golik.  I 
staited  his  action  under  a  written  con- 
tract wliich  was  introdu(^ed  in  evidence 
the  other  day  in  court.  I  prosecuted 
that  suit  under  that  contract  and  re- 
covered a  verdict  for  $1,100,  and  was 
dissatisfied  with  the  verdict  and  made 
a  motion  for  a  new  trial.  Mr.  Hollister 
made  a  motion  for  judgment,  notwith- 
standing the  verdict.  During  tho 
pendency  of  that  motion,  Golik,  angry 
at  the  long  delay  and  not  understand- 
ing that  It  was  unavoidable,  came  Into 
the  office  and  told  me  I  could  drop  the 
case,  and  that  he  would  get  another 
lawyer.  I  immediatelv  withdrew  my 
motion  for  a  new  trial,  as  I  did  not 
care  to  lose  my  lien  on  the  case  for 
the  amount  of  my  fees. 

"This  case  was  appealed  to  the  su- 
preme court  twice  and  I  was  succes.«ful 
on  both  appeals.  Remanded  back  here 
and  the  judgment  would  have  been  col- 
lected, but  in  the  meantime,  for  the 
purpose  of  getting  .square  with  me,  for 
some  fancied  grievance,  Ljubo  Bogici- 
vich  went  to  the  three  doctors  who  tes- 
tified in  the  case,  representing  that  he 
was  able  to  collect  their  bills  from 
Golik,  and  told  them  he  would  charge 
them  nothing  for  the  collection.  The 
doctors  had  filed  their  bills  with  mo 
for  the  services  they  rendered,  amount- 
ing to  $25  each.  The  claims  were  turned 
over  to  Benjamin  M.  Goldberg  for  suit, 
and  instead  of  suing  for  $25,  which  was 
the  amount  of  the  bills  as  rendered  to 
me,  commenced  suit  for  $75  in  each 
case.  That  the  action  on  the  part  of 
Mr.  Bogicivich  in  procuring  the  cr.ses 
from  the  doctors  was  purely  spite 
work,  as  borne  out  by  the  fact 
the  doctors  so  stated  under  oath 
Mr.  Bogicivich  had  so  stated  to 
at  the  time  he  got  the  claims, 
other  doctor,  whose  claim  was 
placed  in  judgment,  performed  an  oper 
ation  on  Golik  at  St.  Mary's  hospital, 
for  which  his  charges  were  $125.  St. 
Mary's  hospitals'  charges  for  the  care 
of  Golik  was  over  $41. 

"In  the  case  of  Kmil  Otllich  again.st 
Paul  Golik,  he  came  to  me  and  re- 
quested fne  to  try  the  case  for  him.  I 
appeared  therein  and  asked  permission 
of  the  court  to  file  an  answer  In  the 
case,  which  the  court  denied.  I  then 
appealed  to  the  district  court  and  pro- 
cured a  reversal  of  the  order.  After 
coming  back  to  the  municipal  court  for 
the  trial  of  that  case.  Mr.  Golik  again 
Informed  me  that  he  was  gol.ig  to  get 
another  lawyer,  so  I  notified  the  court 
of  my  withdrawal  from  the  case,  re- 
questing the  court,  however,  to  protect 
Mr.  Golik  by  giving  him  actual  p-^r- 
sonal  notice  of  such  fact,  so  that  he 
could  procure  some  other  attorney.  I 
understand  he  did  not  do  that  and 
judgment  was  taken  by  default. 
Knew  NotliInK  of  Doetorft'  CaMeit. 

"In  none  of  the  cases  brought  by  the 
doctors  was  I  notified  of  the  fact  of 
the  bringing  of  such  ca.<<e  against  him 
and   knew    nothing   of   the   amount   of 


the  claim  sued  upon  until  the  setth?- 
nitnt  of  tiie  action  by,  the  sheriff  of 
Carlton  county  in  (Mf.  Marshall's  oi- 
tice  on  July  25. 

"I  had  procured  several  orders  in 
supplementary  proceedings  agalmU 
the  defendants,  Eriefc»»«yn  &  Long,  and 
on  one  pretext  or  another  Mr.  Hollister, 
who  was  representing  the  insurance 
company  which  inHured  Erickson  K- 
Long,  got  the  matter  continued.  It  fi- 
nally became  necessary  to  file  a  tran- 
•scrlpt  of  the  case  In  Carlton  county 
and  Issue  an  execution  out  of  that 
court  to  the  sheriff  of  that  county,  di- 
recting him  to  levy  upon  the  property 
of  Erickson  &  I..ong,  who  live  at  ov 
near  Cloquet.  After  this  was  dont*. 
Alexander  Marshall,  who  succeeded  Mr. 
Hollister  as  attorney  for  the  insurance 
company,  notified  me  that  they  were 
goirg  to  pay  the  claim  and  to  have 
the  sheriff  come  down.  The  sheriff 
came  to  Duluth  on  July  25,  and  at  some 
time  during  that  day  Mr.  Marshall 
called  me  up  over  the  telephone,  tell- 
ing me  that  the  sheriff  of  Carlton 
county  was  in  his  office  and  that  he 
would  pay  the  money  over  to  him  in 
the  Golik  matter,  requesting  ine  to 
come  over.  I  asked  that  he  and  the 
sheriff  come  over  to  my  office,  but  i.c 
said  that  there  were  five  or  six  gen- 
tlemen waiting  for  me  there  and  to 
«,-ome  over  tliere. 

"I  went  to  Mr.  Marshall's  pfflce  and 
found  the  sheriff  of  Carlton  county, 
Mr.  MoKinnon;  Mr.  McGee,  deputy  sher- 
iff of  St.  Louis  county;  Mr.  Goldberg, 
Mr.  Myers,  and  Mr.  Courtney  in  Mr. 
Marshall's  private  office.  I  went  in 
and  Mr.  Marshall  asked  me  how  much 
the  claim  with  interest  and  costs 
amounted  to  and  1  then  informed  him 
what  my  figures  were,  and  after  jfome 
comparisons  of  different  amounts  back 
and  forth,  the  amount  was  finally  de- 
cided upon.  Mr.  Marshall  then  paid 
the  money  over  to  the  sheriff  of  Carl- 
ton county  in  cash  and  he  turned  the 
sg.me  over  to  me.  Thereupon  Mr.  Mc- 
Gee, deputy  sheriff  of  St.  Louis  county, 
stepped  forward  with  a  number  of  ex- 
ecutions and  served  them  upon  me  at 
that  time,  levying  upon  the  money  in 
my  possession  on  the  table.  I  objected 
to  paying  the  money  at  that  time  and 
said  the  matter  oughi  to  go  into  court 
and  be  passed  upon  by  the  court  as  no 
the  amounts  that  should  be  paid  thero- 
from.  The  executions  \rere  fair  upon 
their  faces  and  there  was  nothing  I 
could  do  under  the  circumstances  uut 
pay  the  money  over  to  the  sheriff, 
which  I  did,  under  protest. 
Tfeie   I)octort«*   BlllM. 

"Mr.  Goldberg  represented  the  three 
doctors  whose  bills  were  sent  to  me  as 
being  $25  each  and  after  the  matters 
had  been  settled  I  told  Mr.  Goldberg  1 
did  not  understand  how  the  amounts 
could  be  so  large  as  I  had  bills  from 
each  of  the  doctors  for  their  services 
in  the  -sum  of  $25.  Subsequent  to  that 
time  I  received  a  telephone  communi- 
cation from  Mr.  GoMberg  asking  inc 
if  I  had  the  bills  of  the  doctors  in  my 
possession  and  asking  if  I  would  let 
him  have  them  for  a  short  time.  I  did 
not  know  what  he  wanted  tlie  bills 
for  at  that  time  and  allowed  him  to 
take  the  bills  from  the  office. 

"After  the  payment  of  this  money 
over  to  the  sheriff  upon  these  execu- 
tions, which  amounted  to  $577.90.  Mr. 
Courtney  served  fa.  garnishee  summons 
upon  me  In  a  suit  agaiAst  Paul  Golik 
for  St.  Mary's  hospital  (where  Golik 
had  gone  for  a  further  operation  upon 
his  leg).  At  that  time,  as  I  figure  it 
out,  I  had  $43.50  belonging  to  Golik 
and  that  would  scarcely  be  enough  to 
p«ay  St.  Marys  hospital  and  the  costs 
of  suit.  * 

"Subsequent  to  the  payment  of  that 
money  to  the  sheriff  Mr.  Goldberg  and 
I  were  before  Judge  Cant  arguing 
some  other  motion  and  I  spoke  to 
Judge  Cant  at  that  time  of  the  situ- 
ation, telling  him  what  the  situation 
was  and  wanted  to  know  if  there  was 
not  some  way  in  which  this  matter 
might  be  adjusted  in  the  court,  re- 
lieving me  of  any  further  responsi- 
bility  in  the  matter.  There  was  some 
conversation  between  Judge  Cant.  Mr. 
Goldberg  and  myself  at  that  time,  but 
it  did  not  result  in  anything  being 
done. 

"Subsequent  to  this  time  Mr.  Ross 
came  to  my  office,  saying  he  repre- 
sented the  Associated  Charities  and 
requested  to  {je  in^-hied  as  to  the 
situation  in  the  Golik  matter  and  I 
gave  him  all  the  information  I  had 
and  also  the  docto'r's  bills,  which  ho 
asked  for.  I  saw  Mr.  Dinwiddle  of 
the  Associ-ated  Charities  after  Mr. 
Ross  had  called  upon  me  and  ex- 
plained matters  to  him  and  told  him  I 
would  be  glad  to  do  anything  in  my 
power  to  show  them  just  what  the 
situation  was  with  reference  to  Mr 
Golik. 

*I  have  at  all  times  been  anxiou.'^ 
to  have  this  matter  disposed  of  in 
.some  way  so  that  I  could  be  relieved 
from  any  further  responsibility  in  the 
case,  but  I  did  not  imagine  that  a  pro- 
ceeding of  the  kind  that  was  brought 
here  would  be  taken.  In  which  all  of 
the  actors  In  the  proceeding  except- 
ing myself  were  left  out.  It  seems 
to  me  that  if  anything  of  this  sort 
was  done  that  all  the  parties  who 
were  present  in  Mr.  Marshall's  office 
and  who  had  anything  to  do  with  se- 
curing Mr.  Golik's  money  from  me, 
should  have  been  brought  in,  and  a 
complete  hearing  had.  but  that  was 
not  done. 

"Summarizing  the  matter,  it  seems 
that  through  the  fault  of  Mr.  Golik  in 
not  seeing  any  attorney  when  he  was 
sued  by  the  doctors  and  in  not  call- 
ing the  matter  to  my  attention,  he 
permitted  judgment  to  be  taken 
against  him  by  default,  by  reason  of 
which  he  had  to  pay  more  than  four 
times  the  amount  of  the  doctors 
claims,  and  that  if  it  had  not  been 
for  Mr.  Boglcivich's  desire  to  get 
'even  with  me,'  as  he  stated  to  the 
doctors,  such  a  proceeding  would 
ntver  have  been  taken.  In  each  of 
the  doctors'  cases  who  testified  in 
court  whose  bills  were  $25  the  sheriff 
collected  over  $104,  and  the  doctors 
received  only  the  amount  of  their  fee, 
flat  is,   $2!'>. 

'"All  ©f  the  facts  which  I  have  stated 
herein  are  a  matter  of  record  In  court, 
in  the  proceedings  taken  on  the  21st 
and   can   be   verified."

IF  YOU  CAN'T  GO  TO  SLEEP 


Counting,  Reading  and  Special  Diet 
Are  Suggested  as  Helpful. 

Le  Temps:  A  sufferer  from  insomnia 
retails  a  number  of  counsels  he  has 
received,  of  which  the  first  comes  from 
the  poet,  M.  Leconte,  who  says: 

"Open  your  window  wide.  Lie  with 
your  head  as  low  as  possible  and  you 
will  sleep  like  a  post." 

"Accustom  yourself  to  take  an  hour 
or  twos  rest  in  a  deck  chair  after 
every  meal,"  writes  another.  "Take 
down  from  your  shelves  some  old  fash- 
ioned novel  of  which  you  have  an  af- 
fectionate remembrance  as  one  of  the 
joys  of  your  youth  &nd  read  it  whlla 
you  are  on  your  deck  chair.  The  more 
you  are  wearied  by  it  the  better  you 
win  sleep.  The  secret  of  a  good  night 
is  not  to  tire  yourself  out  in  the  eve- 
ning,  but  to  Idle  away  the  time. 

"An  important  point,  though  a  dif- 
ficult one,  Is  to  avali  any  dread  of  In- 
somnia. Personally  1  derive  benefit 
from  calculating  the  multiples  of  two 
Or  three  as  far  as  I  can  go.  Or  else  I 
'count  elephants;'  one  elephant  and  on^ 
elephant  make  two  elephants,  two  ele- 
phants  and  one  elephant  make  thre* 
elephants;  three  elephants  and  one  ele- 
phant, and   so  on. 

"Finally,  knock  off  your  black  coffee, 
even  your  morning  ciip  on  rising,  and 
take  no  meat  In  the  evening.  For  luncii 
eat  nothing  but  fruit,  and  for  dinner  u 
vegetable  soup,  vermicelli,  mashed  po- 
tatoes and  one  or  two  biscuits. 

"If  In  spite  of  all  this  sleep  refuse.i 
to  come  try  reading.  But  don't  read 
anything  lively  or  interesting.  In  my 
own  case  it  is  very  rare  that  insomnia 
does  not  succumb  to  two  or  three 
pages  of  Plato's  'Phaedo.' 

"An  eminent  doctor  of  Lyons  says 
much  the  same  thing.  Another  sug- 
gests: 'Count  slowly  from  one  upwards. 
It  In  very  rare  one  gets  up  to  two  hun- 
dred without  going  off  to  sleep.  It  l.i 
on  record,  however,  that  one  victim 
got  up  to  16,987,  and  then  It  was  tlmo 
for  him  to  get  up!'  " 


MARRON  DELICACIES. 
The  Housekeeper:  That  the  fruit  of 
the  chestnut  tree  Is  nearly  as  valuable) 
as  bread  and  more  valuable  than  po- 
tatoes for  our  dallj'  diet  we  seem  slow 
to  comprehend  in  tlU^  country. 

The  large  Frencrt/^hestnut.s,  better 
known  as  "marrons,"  are  delicious

Chestnut  Stuffing  —  Remove  the 
sinews  from  a  half  pound  of  lean  veal, 
separate  the  strings  from  a  pound  of 
leaf  lard,  chop  separately  and  fine.  Then 
put  all  together  in  a  mortar  with  salt 
and  pepper,  pound  vigorously  for  five 
minutes    moisten     with    a    ladleful     of 


broth  and  add  a  quart  of  prepared 
chestnuts  for  stuffing.  Fill  the  breast 
and  body  of  turkey,  tie  both  ends  very 

closely,  truss  firmly  with  strong  twine 
and  a  dressing  needle,  and  it  is  ready 
for   roasting. 

And  for  dessert,  a  novelty  would  be: 
Marron  Blanc-^fange — Put  or.e  quart

over  the  fire.  Sprinkle  into  It  one  level 
tablespoonful  of  farina.  Cover  and  cook 
about  twenty  minutes,  stirring  fre- 
quently. Just  before  taking  off  the 
fire,  add  pieces  of  marrons.  Mold  and 
put  on  ice  till  firm.  Garnish  with  a 
few  marrons  and  serve  with  sugar 
and  cream.

Mobile,  Ala.,  Dec.  23. — The  British 
schooner  Georgiana  with  eleven  pas- 
sengers and  a  crew  of  four,  foundered 
off  Lucea,   Jamaica,   in  trying  to  make 

that  port  during  the  November  gulf 
storm,  and  all  on  board  were  lost,  ac- 
cording to  dispiatehes  received  here 
today.  The  British  schooner  Carte- 
gena  has  not  been  heard  from  since 
Nov.  17  and  it  is  believed  that  vessel 
with  her  crew  of  seven  also  has  gone

proposed     international     highway. 

It  is  proposed  to  connect  the  road 
alre»ady  built  from  Duluth  to  Two 
Harbors  with  a  road  through  LaJce 
and  Cook  counties  to  connect  at  'he 
border  with  a  road  to  be  built  from

TO  PARENTS 


Chicago  News:  'I  know  nothing 
whatever  about  children,"  said  the 
family  man.  "I  have  several  of  my 
own.  These  little  angels  go  over  me 
carefully  every  day  and  disinfect  me 
from  all  theories  that  may  have  ac- 
cumulated since  the  last  previous 
overhauling.  So  I  'itn  entirely  sanitary 
so  far  as  theory,  germs  are  concerned. 

"But  I  just  want  to  talk  over  with 
you  the  question  o^  what  makes  you 
and  me  such  tooiit  In  the  matter  of 
disciplining    our    children. 

'It  has  been  said  that  nobody  strikes 
his  children  nowadays  except  in  self 
defense.  That  Is  too  nearly  true  of  us 
in  our  indulgent  moments.  But  what 
naggers  we  have  become  since  we  be- 
gan accumulating  theories  and 
psychological  information  about  the 
little  dears! 

"What,  for  instance,  would  you  have 
a  3-year-old  boy  be,  just  now?  A  3- 
f ear-old  boy.  wouldn't  you?  Well,  then, 
what  makes  you  get  so  excited  and  so 
surprised  and  so  shocked  and  disap- 
pointed and  pained  when  he  takes  a 
Pail  of  water  or  A  sprinkling  can  and 
carries  it  around  aJid  plays  in  It  un- 
til his  clothej  aiy  wet  and  his  shoes 
are    sopping?  ^ 

"Isn't  that  the  S-year-oldest  thing  a 
boy  could  do?  Did  you  expect  him  to 
go  and  ask  for  a  piece  of  table  oil- 
cloth, go  and  get  out  his  rubbers  and 
put  them  on  and  sedately  carry  that 
pail  around,  carefully  leaning  over  to 
keep  himself  dry?  'W'hat  fun  would 
slopping  a  pail  of  water  around  be  to 
a  child  who  was  so  mature  as  to  think 
of  all  that?

W.  A.  OLDFIELD 
Of  Arkansas. 

A  "pure  shoe"  bill  has  been  Intro- 
duced in  the  house  at  Washington  by 
Congressman  W.  A.  Oldfleld  of  Arkan- 
sas. This  bill  makes  the  pure  food 
laws  applicable  to  the  shoe  industry. 
There  is  no  business  in  which  there  is 
so  much  adulteration.  Shoes  are  made 
out  of  paper,  strawboard,  leather- 
board,  pineboard  and  other  substitutes. 
This  bill  originated  with  some  St  Louis 
makers  of  shoes.  They  had  it  proposed 
to  the  Missouri  legislature  more  than 
a  year  ago  and  fought  for  its  adop- 
tion, but  the  opposition  of  other  shoe 
manufacturers  defeated  it.  The  law 
would  compel  makers  to  brand  a  shoe 
with  the  statement  of  the  fact  that  it 
was  made  of  leather  substitute. 


you   were  his  age? 

"Yes,  you  had  all  the  fool  foibles 
your  little  son  has.  You  did  3 -year- 
old  things  when  you  were  3.  just  as 
you  do  40-year-old  things  now  that 
you  are  40.  And  so  long  as  you  do 
things  that  are  as  nearlj^  normal  at 
40  as  the  things  your  son  does  are 
normal  for  a  3-year-old,  your  son 
will  have  no  occasion,  now  or  here- 
acter,  to  reprimand  you  or  be  ashamed 
of  you.  It  is  only  when  the  40-year-old 
begins  showing  17-year-old  proclivities 
and  tendencies  that  the  trouble  sets 
ip    for   everybody    concerned. 

"So  you  should  earnestly  endeavor  to 
be  as  thoroughly  40  years  old  as  he  is 
thoroughly  3.  You'll  be  all  right  If  you 
succeed  in  attaining  that  high  degree 
of  proficiency  In  living  up  to  your 
age   and   opportunities."

To  the  ordinary  Individual  there 
might  appear  little  that  is  humorous  in 
aviation,  writes  Graham-White  in  the 
Strand  Magazine;  it  would  seem, 
rather,  to  be  a  grim  and  grisly  busi- 
ness, with  su(3den  death  always  at  the 
pilots  elbow.  But  the  dangers  of  .air- 
manship are  ridiculously  exas^gerated, 
and  there  is,  as  a  matter  of  fact,  much 
that  is  amusing  in  what  1  might  call 
everyday  aviation,  and  particularly  in 
regard  to  the  operation  ot  a  flying- 
school. 

And  now  as  to  the  most  amusing 
incident  1  can  tliink  of.  "VVell,  here 
it  is: 

A  -Dupil,  after  landina:  at  my  Hendon 
aerodrome  one  evening  at  the  end  of 
a  flight  on  a  monoplane,  jumped  out  of 
the  machine  before  It  had  stopped 
running  along  the  ground.  Stumbling, 
he  not  only  let  go  of  the  machine,  but 
accidentally  touched  the  engine-switch 
.and  accelerated  the  motor  to  a  high 
rate   of  speed. 

The  result  was  that  the  monoplane 
darted  away  like  a  big,  angry  bird; 
and,  as  thougii  rejoicing  in  its  new- 
found freedom,  it  ran  this  way  and 
that  about  the  aerodrome,  its  motor 
humming  defiarce. 

With  confident  mien,  some  of  the 
meclianics  hurried  out  to  catch  the 
runaway;  but  they  had  not  reckoned 
upon  the  ridiculously  eccentric  actions 
cf   the   machine. 

Soon  we  who  were  watching  were 
convulsed  with  oiirth.  \N'hirling  hither 
and  thither  under  the  Impulse  of  its 
propeller,  but  without  the  power  actu- 
ally to  risf,  the  monoplane  seemed  In- 
stinct with  the  desire  to  elude  pursuit. 
Buzzing  awpy  across  the  aerodrome, 
it  led  the  mechanics  a  fatiguing  chase. 
Then,  suddenly  wheeling  round,  it 
plunged  at  thorn,  and  scattered  thera 
with  the  fear  of  its  sninning  propeller. 

Again  they  chased  it;  again  the  m« 
chine,  as  though  a  thing  alive,  wheeled 
round  and  made  a  vicious  dart  at  them. 
This  time  one  man  managed  to  grip 
its  tail,  but  he  was  shaken  off  and  fell 
flat  on  his  back. 

Perspiring  freely,  and  with  many 
terse  remarks  to  express  thetr  annoy- 
ance, the  mechanics  again  took  up 
their  weary  pursuit.  Meanwhile,  quite 
characteristically.  unfeeling  onlook- 
ers merely  laughed. 

Up  and  down,  to  and  fro,  the  men 
ran  and  dodged  and  slipped  and  fell, 
their  furious,  unavailing  shouts  and 
cries  mingling  with  the  spiteful  splut- 
ter of  the  monoplane's  engine. 

At  length,  having  laughed  at  the 
ludicrous  spectacle  until  we  could 
laugh  no  more,  some  of  us  who  were 
standing  by  the  sheds  made  a  move  to 
join  In  the  game. 

But  the  machine  seemed  possessed. 
It  ^-renched  itself  away  from  the  grip 
of  several  pairs  of  eager  hands,  and 
then  hopped  and  floundered  to  some 
other  corner  of  the  aerodrome.  One 
or  two  of  the  pursurers  sat  on  the 
ground,  quite  exhausted.  Others  were 
laughing  too  much  to  pursue  effectual- 
ly. And  still  the  monoplane  buzzed  at 
large. 

Finally,  when  we  were  all  weak 
from  running  or  laughing,  I  managed 
to  get  hold  of  a  wing-tip.  The  mono- 
plane whirled  round  and  round  fu- 
riously, but  I  was  able  to  hold  on. 
And  then  a  mechanic  ran  in  and 
switched  off  the  motor.  At  once  the 
machine  stopped  its  absurd  gyrations. 
But  while  it  lasted  the  monoplane 
hunt  was  the  funniest  sight  you  could 
imagine.

I       EVERYBODY  WELCOME  TO  CALL. 

Gifts  are,  or  should  be,  keepsakes — how  appro- 
priate, indeed,  something  in  Jewelry — for  '*her ;"  or, 
for  that  matter,  for  "him." 

A  knicknack  will  answer,  if  intended  for  only  an 
acquaintance — a  more  pretentious  article  for  a  friend 
or  dear  one. 

Here  you  find  everything  in  Silver  or  Gold — 
Jewels,  too — timepieces  for  mantel  or  hall  or  shelf — 
useful  things  and  of  value. 

Prices  go  in  easy  stages  from  trinkets  up  to 
Diamonds — and  even  Diamonds  are  within  the 
reach  of  any  purse — beginning  with  rings  at  $5.00. 

For  26  years  we  have  continued  to  serve  our  cus- 
tomers honestly  and  satisfactorily  by  always  giving 
them  the  highest  quality  in  Jewelry  and  Diamonds.

I  came  acroiss 
street  of  an  old 
had  taken  up  ' 
principal  hotel 
— an    excellent 


in    the   London 


Mail: 
them  In  the  main 
Dorsetshire  town.  They 
heir  pitch,  between  the 
and  the  corn  exchange 
position,  as  the  crowd 
of  gaping  courtry  folk,  three  or  four 
deep,   testified. 

Their  visible  "props"  consisted  of  a 
very  old  pony,  a  very  old  cart,  a  small 
dog  in  a  net  tag  and  a  kind  of  ban- 
ner, supported  by  an  easel,  on  which 
were  depicted  numerous  scenes  of 
gruesome  and  quite  unexpected  mis- 
fortunes. 

Tliere  were  j  ist  the  three  of  them — 
the  man,  his  wife,  and  the  negro.  The 
man  wore  a  peaked  cap  and  a  gray  suit 
mucli  the  worse  for  wear.  He  had 
tired  eyes  but  <i  hopeful  mustache.  His 
intonation  was  in  harmony  with  his 
mustache,  but  Ids  manner  agreed  witli 
his  tired  eyes.  He  clung  bravely  to 
the  upward  note  and  the  patter  was 
cheerful  enough,  but  the  face 
utterly  without  expression,  and 
tired  eyes  look'^d  constantly  from 
to  end  of  the  street  and  not  at 
spectators. 

^MNdani   la  Marvelona.** 

"We  have  served  royalty!"  he 
saying  as  I  api)roached.  "Three  times 
at  Cowes  we  have  served  his  majesty 
King  Alfonso  of  Spain'.  We  had  the 
honor  of  servlniir  the  late  King  Edward 
— bless  his  memory  !  We  have  served 
Prince  Eddy,  the  young  prince  of 
Wales!  We  havis  also  served  Sir  Thom- 
as Llpton  and  anotlier  man  who  is  a 
friend   to  you  all — Lloyd  George!" 

tiere  came  a  timid  groan,  followed 
by  a  general    Is. ugh. 

"You  are  now  beholding."  he  con- 
tinued, "the  real  North  American  mys- 
tery! All  you  liave  to  do  is  to  show 
madam  your  L^ft  hand!  Madam  is  a 
marvelous  woman — a  very  marvelous 
woman  is  madsm.  If  we  charged  you 
a  f'hllling  you'cl  think  all  the  more  of 
us!  We're  showing  you  a  wonderful 
turn!  Madam  is  just  doing  this  be- 
tween her  engagements  on  the  stage — 
just  for  a  few  weeks — to  amuse  her- 
self! .\  very  miirvelous  woman  Is  ma- 
dam!" 

Madam  Aninnes  Hemelt. 

I     pressed    forward,    anxious    to    see 


was 

the 
end 
the 


was 


madam  amusing  herself.  I  discovered 
a  weary  looking  woman,  dressed  in  a 
thick  cloth  coat,  a  dragging  gklrt  and 
a  blue  hat  trimmed  with  lace  that  had 
been  white.  She  was  examining  the 
hand  of  a  shy.  giggling  maid  from  the 
hotel,  whose  friends  in  the  crowd 
shouted  eager  comments  on  her  char- 
acter. Presently  madam,  that  "wonder- 
ful woman,"  dropped  the  hand  took  a 
printed  slip  from  a  bundle  that  she 
carried  in  a  reticule  and  marked  it 
here  and  there  with  a,  pencil.  Finallv 
she  scribbleu  a  word  or  two  on  the 
back,  lianded  the  paper  to  the  maid- 
servant, collected  some  money,  and 
went  on  to  the  next  client. 

»*Two  Pence,  Pleajie.** 

The  patter  continued.  "Peer  or  peas- 
ant, bl.shop  or  burglar,  madam  gives 
them  all  the  same  attention!  You  all 
get  the  same  attention  from  madam' 
hhe  8  a  wonderful  woman!  STie's  the 
real  North  American  mvstery!  She'<? 
only  doing  this  for  a  few  weeks  to 
amuse  herself— just  for  a  little  holi- 
day! We  have  served  King  Alfonso  of 
Spain  three  times  at  Cowes!  ^We  had 
the  honor  of  serving  the  late  King 
Edward!'     And    the   rest   as   before 

Waiting  an  opportunity,  I  pushed 
through  the  circle  and  gave  madam  my 
left  hand.  I  noticed  that  the  expres- 
sion of  her  eyes  was  very  gentle  and 
her  voice  cultured.  I  was  comforted 
to  think  that  she  was  only  doing  this 
to  amuse  herself — just  for  a  little  holi- 
day. 

She  examined  my  hand  for  perhaps 
half  a  minute,  then  she  selected  one 
of  her  printed  papers,  marked  it  rap- 
Idlv.    and   gave    It    to    me.

SURVEYORS  ON 

NEW  HIGHWAY 


Work  Begun  on  Canadian 
End  of  Proposed  Inter- 
national Road. 

Fort  William,  Ont.,  Dec.  23. — A  par- 
ty of  surveyors  left  last  night  to  sur- 
vey a  route  for  the  intern«atlonal  high- 
way,   to    be    built    frbm    Fort    William 

to    Duluth.       The    party    does    not    ex- 
pect  to    reach   Duluth   before   spring. 


Active  steps  are  being  taken  by  St. 
Louis,  Lake  and  Cook  county  people 
to  make  possible  the  building  of  the 
proposed    international    highway. 

It  is  proposed  to  connect  the  road 
alre»ady  built  from  Duluth  to  Two 
Harbors  with  a  road  through  Lake 
and  Cook  counties  to  connect  at  the 
border  with  a  road  to  be  built  from 
Port  Arthur  and  Fort  William  by  the 
Canadian  government.  Cook  county 
expects  to  issue  bonds  to  defray  the 
cost  of  the  portion  of  the  ro»ad  run- 
ning from  the  Lake  county  line  to  the 
border.

TO  PARENTS 


Chicago     News:       'I     know     nothing 

whatever  about  children,"  said  the 
family  man.  'I  have  several  of  my 
own.  These  little  angels  go  over  me 
carefully  every  day  and  disinfect  me 
from  all  theories  that  may  have  ac- 
cumulated since  the  last  previous 
overhauling.  So  I  .im  entirely  sanitary 
so  far   as   theory  germs  are  concerned. 

•But  1  just  want  to  talk  over  with 
you  the  question  of  what  makes  you 
and  me  such  foola  In  the  matter"  of 
disciplining    our    children. 

■"It  hag  been  said  that  nobody  striV:es 
his  children  nowailays  except  in  self 
defense.  Tliat  is  too  nearly  true  of  us 
in  our  indulgent  moments.  But  wliat 
naggers  we  have  become  since  we  be- 
gan accumulating  theories  and 
psychological  information  about  the 
little  dears: 

"What,  for  instance,  would  you  have 
a  n-year-old  boy  l>e,  just  now?  A  3- 
.vear-old  boy.  wouldn't  you?  Well,  then, 
what  makes  you  get  so  excited  and  so 
surprised  and  so  shocked  and  disap- 
pointed and  pained  when  he  takes  a 
Pail  of  water  or  a  sprinkling  can  and 
carries  it  around  and  plays  in  It  un- 
til his  clothej  are  wet  and  his  shoes 
are   sopping? 

"Isn't  that  the  3 -year-oldest  thing  a 
boy  could  do?  Did  you  expect  him  to 
go  and  ask  for  a  piece  of  table  oil- 
cloth, go  and  get  out  his  rubbers  and 
put  them  on  and  sedately  carrv  that 
pail  around,  carefully  leaning  over  to 
keep  himself  dry?  What  fun  would 
slopping  a  pail  of  water  around  be  to 
a  child  who  was  so  mature  as  to  think 
or  all  that? 

"Didn't  you  do  the  same   thing  when 


W.  A.  OLDFIELD 
Of  Arkansas. 

A  "pure  shoe"  bill  has  been  intro- 
duced in  tlie  house  at  Washington  by 
Congressman  W.  A.  Oldfield  of  Arkan- 
sas. Tills  bill  makes  the  pure  food 
laws  applicable  to  the  shoe  Industry. 
There  Is  no  business  in  which  tliere  is 
.so  much  adulteration.  .Shoes  are  made 
out  of  paper,  strawboard,  leather- 
board,  pineboard  and  other  substitutes. 
This  bill  originated  with  some  St.  Louis 
makers  of  shoes.  They  had  it  proposed 
to  the  Missoviri  legislature  more  than 
a  year  ago  and  fought  for  its  adop- 
tion, but  the  opposition  of  otlier  shoe 
manufacturers  defeated  it.  The  law 
would  compel  makers  to  brand  a  shoe 
with  tlie  statement  of  the  fact  that  it 
was  made  of  leather  substitute. 


you    were   his   age? 

■•Yes,  you  had  all  the  fool  foibles 
your  little  son  has.  You  did  3-year- 
old  things  when  you  were  3,  just  as 
you  do  40-year-old  things  now  that 
you  are  40.  And  so  long  as  you  do 
things  that  are  as  nearly  normal  at 
40  as  the  things  your  sou  does  are 
normal  for  a  i! -year-old,  your  son 
will  have  no  occasion,  now  or  here- 
acter,  to  reprimand  you  or  be  asliamed 
of  you.  It  is  only  when  the  40-year-old 
begins  showing  17-year-old  proclivities 
and  tendencies  that  the  trouble  sets 
in    for   everybody    concerned. 

"So  you  should  earnestly  endeavor  to 
be  as  thoroughly  40  years  old  as  he  is 
thoroughly  3.  You'll  be  all  right  if  you 
succeed  in  attaining  that  high  degree 
of  proficiency  In  living  up  to  your 
age  and   opportunities."

To  the  ordinary  individual  there 
might  appear  little  that  is  humorous  in 
aviation,  writes  Graham-White  in  the 
Strand  Magazine;  it  would  seem, 
rather,  to  be  a  grim  and  grisly  busi- 
ness, with  sut'den  death  always  at  the 
pilot's  elbow.  But  the  dangers  of  .lir- 
ma'i.=?hip  are  ridiculously  exaggerated, 
and  there  is,  as  a  matter  of  fact,  much 
that  is  amusing  in  what  1  might  call 
everyday  aviation,  and  particularly  in 
regard  to  the  operation  of  a  Ilying- 
school. 

And  now  as  to  the  most  amusing 
incident  I  can  tliink  of.  "^Yell,  here 
it  is: 

A  lu^oil.  after  landing  at  my  Hendon 
aerodrome  one  evening  at  the  end  of 
a  llight  on  a  monoplane,  jumped  out  of 
the  machine  before  It  had  stopped 
running  along  the  ground.  Stumbling, 
he  not  only  let  go  of  the  machine,  t>ut 
accidentally  touclied  tht;  engine- switch 
.Tud  accelerated  tlie  motor  to  a  hlgii 
rate    of    speed. 

The  result  w.is  that  the  monoplane 
darted  away  like  a  big.  angry  bird; 
and,  as  thougii  rejoicing  in  its  new- 
found freedom,  it  ran  tliis  way  ;ind 
that  about  the  aerodrome,  its  motor 
humming  defiarce. 

\\ith  confident  mien,  some  of  the 
mechanics  hurried  out  to  catch  the 
runaway;  but  they  liad  not  reckoned 
upon  the  ridiculously  eccentric  actions 
cf   the   maclilne. 

Soon  we  Avho  were  watching  were 
convulsed  with  piirth.  \\'hirling  hither 
and  tiiither  under  the  Impulse  of  Its 
propeller,  but  without  the  power  actu- 
ally to  rise,  the  monoplane  seemed  in- 
stinct  with  the  desire  to  elude  pursuit. 

Buzzing  awt'v  across  the  aerodrome, 
it  led  the  mechanics  a  fatiguing  chase. 
Then,  suddenly  wheeling  round,  it 
plunged  at  them,  and  scattered  them 
with  the  fear  of  its  sninning  propeller. 

Again  they  chased  It;  again  the  m« 
chine,  as  though  a  thing  alive,  wheeled 
round  and  made  a  vicious  dart  at  them. 
This  lime  one  man  managed  to  grip 
its  tail,  but  he  was  shaken  off  and  fell 
flat  on  his  back. 

Perspiring  freely,  and  with  many 
terse  remarks  to  express  their  annoy- 
ance, the  mechanics  again  took  up 
their  weary  pursuit.  Meanwhile,  quite 
characteristically.  unfeeling  onlook- 
ers merely  laughed. 

L'p  and  down,  to  and  fro,  the  men 
ran  and  dodged  and  slipped  and  fell, 
their  furious,  unavailing  shouts  and 
cries  mingling  with  the  spiteful  splut- 
ter of  the  monoplane's  engine. 

At  length,  having  laughed  at  the 
ludicrous  spectacle  until  we  could 
laugh  no  more,  some  of  us  who  were 
standing  by  the  sheds  made  a  move  to 
Join   In   the  game. 

But  the  machine  seemed  possessed. 
It  wrenched  Itself  away  from  the  grii> 
of  several  pairs  of  eager  hands,  and 
then  hopped  and  floundered  to  some 
otlier  corner  of  the  aerodrome.  One 
or  two  of  the  pursurers  sat  on  the 
ground,  quite  exhausted.  Others  were 
laughing  too  much  to  pursue  effectual- 
ly. And  still  the  monoplane  buzzed  at 
large. 

Finall.v,  when  we  were  all  weak 
from  running  or  laughing.  I  managed 
to  get  hold  of  a  wing-tip.  The  mono- 
plane whirled  round  and  round  fu- 
riously, but  I  was  able  to  hold  on. 
And  then  a  mechanic  ran  in  and 
switched  off  the  motor.  At  once  the 
machine  stopped  its  absurd  gyrations. 
But  while  It  lasted  the  monoplane 
hunt  was  the  funniest  sight  you  could 
imagine. 


NOW  UK  LIVES  A  LONELY  LII^E. 

Cleveland  Plain  Dealer:  This  is  the 
way  he  lost  his  home,  as  he  called  at 
the  house  where  he  used  to  roam  to 
iHrt  with  the  girl  he  liked  the  beat — 
'l\v:is   thus   that    he   lost   that   cozxiiest: 

•You  know  Ml.  Benjamin  GriggsV' 
said    she. 

•  I    hate  the  son-of-a-gun."  said   he. 

■'Listen — last  night  he  paid  me  .a 
caW  and  he  tried  to  kiss  me,  out  in  the 
hall!" 

■The    dickens    he    did!       Well,    well 

poor  Ben'.  So  the  poor  fellow  Is  drink- 
ing again!'" 

And  that  was  the  jest  that  started 
the  fight,  and  that  was  the  way  he 
lost  the  delight  of  seeing  his  lady  on 
Saturday  nigiit.  And  all  who  knew  It 
say.   'Serves   him   right!"

as    the    crowd 
three   or   four 

consisted    of   a 


Keble  Howa  d  In  the  Ixindon  Mail; 
I  came  across  them  In  the  main 
street  of  an  olc  Dorsetshire  town.  The> 
had  taken  up  their  pitch  between  the 
principal  hotel  and  the  corn  exchange 
— an  excellent  position, 
of  gaping  country  folk 
deep,   testified. 

Their  visible  "props" 
very  old  pony,  a  very  old  cart,  a  small 
ttoK  in  a  net  hag  and  a  kind  of  ban- 
ner, supported  by  an  easel,  on  which 
were  depleted  numerous  scenes  of 
gruesome  and  quite  unexpected  mis- 
fortunes. 

'Jliere  were  just  the  three  of  them — 
the  man,  iii.s  wife,  and  the  negro.  The 
man  wore  a  peiiked  cap  and  a  gray  suit 
much  the  woise  for  wear.  lie  had 
tired  eyes  but  i  hopeful  mustache.  His 
intonation  was  In  harmony  with  his 
mustache,  but  nis  manner  agreed  wltli 
Ills  tired  eyes.  He  clung  bravely  to 
tiie  upward  nt)te  and  the  patter  was 
cheerful  enough,  but  the  face 
utterly  without:  expression,  and 
tired  eyes  looked  constantly  from 
to  end  of  the  street  and  Hot  at 
spectators. 

"Madam   la  Marvelonn.*' 

"We  have  served  royalty  I"  he 
saying  as  1  aporoaclied.  "Three  times 
at  Cowea  we  have  served  his  majesty 
King  Alfonso  ot  Spain!  We  had  the 
honor  of  .serving  the  late  King  Kdward 
— bless  his  memory  !  We  have  served

Wales!  We  have  also  served  Sir  Thom- 
as Lipton  and  another  man  who  is  a 
friend   to  you  all — ^I>lovd  George!" 

t-tere    came    a     timid    groan,    followed 
by  a  general    hiuglt. 

"Vou  are  tiow  beholding."  he  con- 
tinued, "the  re;!  North  -American  mys- 
ter.v!  All  you  have  to  do  is  to  show 
madam  your  left  hand!  Madam  is  a

te   see 


madam  amusing  herself.  I  discovered 
a  weary  looking  woman,  dressed  in  a 
thick  cloth  coat,  a  dragging  skirt  and 
a  blue  hat  trimmed  with  lace  that  had 
l>een  white.  She  was  examining  the 
hand  of  a  shy,  giggling  maid  from  the 
hotel,  whose  friends  In  the  crowd 
shouted  eager  comments  on  her  char- 
acter. Presently  madam,  that  "wonder- 
ful woman,"  dropped  the  hand  took  a 
printed  slip  from  a  bundle  that  she 
carried  in  a  reticule  and  marked  It 
here  and  there  with  a  pencil.  Finally 
slie  scribbled  a  word  or  two  on  the 
liack,  lianded  the  paper  to  the  mald- 
.servant,  collected  some  money,  and 
went  on  to  the  next  client. 

♦Two  renre,  Pleaar.** 

The  patter  continued.  "Peer  or  peas-

them  all  the  same  attention!  You  all

She  s  a  wonderful  woman!  She's  the

Waiting  an  opportunity.  1  pushed 
through  the  circle  and  gave  madam  mv 
left  hand.  I  noticed  that  the  expre.s'- 
sion  of  her  eyes  was  very  gentle  and 
her  voire  cultured.  1  was  comforted 
to  think  that  she  was  only  doing  tlils 
to  amuse  herself — just  for  a  little  holi- 
day. 

She  examined  my  hand  for  perhaps 
half  a  minute,  tlien  she  selected  one 
of  her  printed  papers,  marked  it  rap- 
Idlv.    and    gave    it    to    me. 

"How   mnch'.'"    I   asked.

I  generally    and    great    scarcity   of   cars. 

I  The  strength  in   the  cash  oats,   the  re- 

;  suit    of   the   export   movement   and   the 

:  short   Interest   in    the   December,   makes 

I  It    all    the   more   advisable   to   sell    cash 

holdings.      Even    the   No.    3    white   oats 

are  bringing  a  stiff   premium   over   the 

May  price.     To  those   inclined  to  carry 

oats,    purchases    of    May    and    sales    of 

cash  seem  distinctly  in  order,  as  they 

not   only  do  not  have   to  pay   carrying 

charges  but  are  actually  getting  a  pre. 

mium   for  the   cash   oats. 

"The  movement  of  corn  continues

two  weeks  ago,  $4.50  to  $5;  now,  $5 
to  $5.50,  Dealers  say  the  rise  is 
merely  due  to  the  fact  that  the  mar- 
ket is  no  longer  congested  with  the 
big  movement  of  hay  that  was  taking 
place    two   weeks    ago   and    earlier. 

During  the  past  two  weeks  97  cars 
of  hay  were  received  and  inspected  at 
Duluth  against  261  cars  during  the 
corresponding  two  weeks  of  last  year. 
During  December  up  to  Saturday  eve- 
ning, Dec.  21,  168  cars  were  received 
and  Inspected  at  Duluth  against  388 
cars  received  and  inspected  during  the 
same  portion  of  December  last  year. 
But,  during  November.  1912,  the  num- 
ber of  cars  received  and  inspected  at 
Duluth  was  450  against  368  during 
November,  1911.  This  year  the  move- 
ment of  hay  took  place  earlier  than  It 
did  a  year  ago.  The  Northwest  had 
good  hay  crops  both  this  year  and 
last. 

The  present  movement  of  hay 
through  Duluth  is  far  more  local  than 
it  was  last  year.  At  present  Duluth 
is  drawing  its  hay  from  200  miles  to 
the  west,  south  and  southeast  and 
sending  it  out  over  the  range  country 
of  Northern  Minnesota  and  the  log- 
ging country  of  Northern  Minnesota 
and  Northern  Wisconsin.  A  year  ago, 
when  hay  was  scarce  in  most  parts  of 
the  countrv  south  of  an  east  and  west 
line  through  the  Twin  Cities,  Duluth 
was  sending  hay  as  far  as  Florida.

Somers,  Jones  &  Co..  of  Chicago  says: 
"The   heavy   Kuropean    demand    looks 
I  distinctly    favorable    for    wheat    values, 
!  but     it     is     a     question     whether     the 
strength    in   coarse  grain   will   continue 
;  until    the    rush    movement    of    corn    is 
out    of    the   way.      We   feel   friendly    to 
I  grain   values  at  present  low  levels,  but 
j  notice    too    much    bull    talk    because    of 
I  eiiirent  light  receipts.     l.,attcr,  we  feel 
certain,    is    owing   more    to    scarcity    of 
cars    than    any    other    one    reason,    and 
may    not    continue.       We    notice,    how- 
ever,   that    e.xporters    take    hold    freely 
on  weak  spots,  buying  oats  and  barley 
a.s  wtll  as  wheat,  and  tliis  remains  tlie 
encouraging    feature. 

"Crop  scares  in  winter,  wheat,  due 
during  the  next  two  months,  and  the 
heavy  drain  on  this  country,  if  con- 
tinued, i-ould  easily  mean  higher  prices. 
Tlie  Balkan  war  difficulties  are  not 
settled  by  any  means  and  are  likely 
al?<o    to    remain    bullish    features.

Chicago,  Dec.  23. — Trade  in  the  grain 
and  provision  pit  was  of  a  light,  holi-

New  York.  Dec.  23. — Some  restraint 
was  impo.^ed  on  speculation  by  uncer- 
tainty whether  the  supreme  court 
would  announce  today  its  decision  in 
the  Minnesota  rate  cases.  Bear  trad- 
ers took  advantage  of  this  situation 
to  make  a  br'ef  demonstration  against 
the  trans-continental  stocks,  but  when 
pressure  relaxed  the  market  made  up 
its  losses  easily.  Business  was  dull 
throughout  the  morning,  and  the  re- 
luctance of  traders  to  take  a  decided 
position  was  heightened  by  the  ap- 
proach of  the  Christmas  holidays. 
Bonds    were    steady. 

Trading  was  dull  at  the  oper.- 
Ing  of  the  stock  market  to- 
day and  fluctuat'ons  were  Em.iU 
and  irregular.  The  only  movements  of 
more  than  a  fraction  were  In  Canadian 
Pacific  and  Western  Maryland,  which 
lost  a  point,  and  Republic  Steel  pre- 
ferred,   which    advanced    1    point. 

Heaviness  developed  and  Union  Pa- 
cific and  the  Hill  and  Copper  stocks 
lost  a  point.  Dealings  then  contracted, 
but  the  market  became  steadier  and 
rose  briskly  afterwards,  when  Steel 
and   Reading  were    bid   up  strongly. 

Temporary  activity  and  strength  fol- 
lowed the  announcement  that  the 
United  States  supreme  court  would  not 
render  any  decision  in  the  cases  of 
immediate  concern  to  Wall  Street. 
Union  Pacific  bounded  2  points  above 
Saturday's  close,  touching  162,  and 
Reading,  Southern  Pacific  and  Steel 
improved  1  to  1%.  The  market  tell 
back  just  as  rapidly  as  it  advanced 
and  reaction  occurring  within  the 
space  of  abcut  five  minutes  after  which 
speculation    became    inanimate. 

The  market  closed  heavy.  N?ws  of 
the  indictment  of  President  Mellen  of 
the  New  Haven  did  not  create  a  ripple 
in  the  railroad  fctocks,  but  later,  when 
the  call  inonev  rates  went  up  to  6  per 
cent,  prices  sagged  to  their  lOAvest 
figures.  Especial  weakness  was  shown 
by  the  Hill  group  and  Great  Northern 
lost  2  points.  Declines  of  a  po»nt  or 
more  were  registered  in  Vnion  Pacific, 
Amalgamated  Copper  and  Lehigh  %  al- 
ley.

I.ESS  POETRY  Ife  READ  TODAY. 
The  Bellman:  It  is  likely  that  fewer 
reading  people  buy  books  of  verse  for 
the  purpo.'>e  of  enjoyment  than  did  so 
in  America  a  generation  or  more  ago. 
Of  a  narrative  piece  by  Longfellow 
about  the  middle  of  the  nineteenth 
century  10,000  cople.s  were  sold  the 
first  dav  of  its  appearance.  Such  a 
thing  is  unheard  of  for  Kipling  or 
anv  other  singer  today. 

the  all  engulfing  interest  In  Action 
is,  no  doubt,  one  of  a  number  of  rea- 
sons why  verse  literature  today  la 
comparatively  neglected.  At  the  same 
time  it  is  wrong  to  represent  the 
change  in  such  wise  as  to  Imply  that 
poetry  in  the  past  had  general  rec- 
ognition, while  at  present  la  has  fall- 
en on  evil  days;  and  al.«o  it  Is  al- 
together misleading  to  give  the  im- 
pression that  there  is  now  no  attempt 
on  anybody's  part  to  hold  up  the  hands 
of    the   languishing   muse. 

As  to  the  former  idea,  poetry  has  al- 
ways had  a  hard  struggle  to  exist  so 
far  as  general  support  is  concerned, 
and  h.-is  won  Its  triumphs  slowly,  if 
surely. 

And  the  reason  is  not  far  to  seek.  It 
is  onlv  the  few  who  are  trained  to  ap- 
preciate the  fine  art  of  verse  and  the 
more  delicate  effects  of  song.  Fiction, 
particularly  Its  romantic  variety,  takes 
care  of  a  large  part  of  the  romantic 
feeling  which  make  the  response  to 
imaginative  literature;  and.  frankly,  it 
is  very  much  easier  to  read  prose  than 
poetry,  for  it  takes  more  special 
preparation   to   receive  the  latter. 

As  a  result,  poetry  wins  its  way 
slowly:  it  percolates  through  the  few 
to  the  many,  if  it  ever  reaches  thena 
at  all;  and  the  genuine  poet  of  one 
generation  may  therefore  not  get  rec- 
ognition until  the  generation  later. 
The  young  Browning,  for  instance, 
heard  vaguely  about  such  a  poet  as 
Shelley  and  tried  to  get  a  volume  of 
his  verse  with  much  difficulty,  for  the 
reason  that  "not  one  of  the  local 
booksellers  had  ever  heard  of  the 
poet's    name."

"BURIED  ALIVE"  IN  BROOKLYN. 
Interborough    Bulletin:    An   acquaint- 
ance of  mine  who  is   both   able  bodied 
and    industrious    was    born    in    Brook- 
lyn  and    has   alwaiys   lived   within   four 
blocks   of   the   famous   bridge,   yet   has 
j  never   seen    it    (except    in    the   picture>, 
1  not  even  while  it  was  under  construc- 
I  tion. 

Xor  has  she  seen  the  elevated  road 
structure,  the  dingy  engines  that  used 
to  do  the  snorting  and  the  later  elec- 
trically propelled  trains.  To  the  regu- 
lar cross-country  steam  locomotive  and 
train   she   is  an   absolute   stranger. 

The  only  car  ride  she  ever  undertook 
was  in  the  early  days  of  horse-drawn 
traction  and  that  to  a  cemetery  and 
back.  When  a  cradle  occupant  she  was 
taken  to  the  battery,  her  only  journey 
awav    from    Brooklyn    town. 

Too  young  then  for  knowledge  of 
onything  she  has  yet  to  take  her  first 
view  of  an  expanse  of  water.  As  for 
a  steamboat,  sailboat,  tug  or  even  a 
ferry,  pictures  are  here  only  enlight- 
enment. 

The  verv  mention  of  a  rowboat 
causes  a  shrug  of  her  shoulders  at  the 
"frightful  things."  And  the  subway- 
is  no  less  terrifying  to  her.  for  not 
even  a  kiosk  entrance  has  met  her 
eve.  As  for  the  tube  under  the  river, 
she  is  fearful  lest  it  would  "break 
with  her  in  it.  "  In  the  last  six  years 
she  has  not  so  much  as  gone  to  the 
corner  of  the  block  in  which  she  lives 
while  in  the  distance  pass  the  trol- 
ley cars  that  await  her  initial  pat- 
ronage. 


Ask   vourself   this   question:

LOWER  CLOSES 

IN  THE  COPPERS 


Copper  stocks  today  closed  generally 
lower,  being  di-agged  down  by  the 
weakness  of  the  general  stock  market 
of  New  York,  t  Hough  the  copper  metal 
market  of  London  closed  fairly  strong. 
On  the  market  spot  copper  gained  Ts 
and  6d,  and  futures  5b  as  the  result  of 
the  day's  transactions.  Mining  stocks 
were  traded  verv  little  during  the  day. 
Amalgamated  dosed  at  a  loss  of  |1.2o! 
Butte  &  S-'uperior  lost  50c  to  |1  off. 
North  Butte  lost  50  to  75c.  Calumet  & 
Arizona  was  50c  to  $1  off.  Greene  Can- 
anea was  a  little  off.  There  were  de- 
clines also  in  American  Saginaw,  Butte-

There  were  gains,  however,  in  Cactus,

THE  LAW  OF  SUCCESS  IX  LIFE. 

Solon  Lauer:  When  thou  dost  clearly 
see  the  path,  thou  canst  not  wander 
from  it.  Out  of  the  lightnings  of  the 
mind  come  forth  the  thunder  shocks 
of  action.  See  thy  act  in  thy  mind's 
clear  vision,  and  'tis  already  done.  In 
hours  of  strength  prepare  for  hours  of 
weakness,  and  thou  shalt  never  fall. 
Forelive  the  thing  thou  dreadest.  Fight 
thy  battle  in  the  high  arena  of  thy 
mind,  and  when  thou  comest  to  the 
arena's  bloody  sands  thy  victory  is  al- 
ready won.  In  silence  prepare  thy  battle 
shout.  Steadfastly  sitting  in  thy  lone 
retreat,  act  thou  thy  coming  part.  In 
silence  let  thy  speech  be  framed.  In 
the  still  chamber  of  the  mind  let  all 
thv  acts  conceive,  and  none  shall  fall 
of  sturdy  life.  If  thou  dost  fear  temp- 
tation's power,  alone  in  silence  meet 
thy  foe  and  slay  him  with  thy  thought. 
With  sword  thrusts  of  brave  words  let 
out  his  life;  and  when  thou  meetest 
him  upon  the  sands,  naught  but  a 
shadow  faeeth  thee.  Trust  not  thy  soul 
to  conflict  unprepared.  Go  armed'  with 
predetermined  thoughts,  with  will 
strained,  like  the  bowstring,  ere  the 
strife  begins.  Sharpen  thy  arro^-s  In 
the  forge  of  thought.  Let  each  be 
pointed  with  a  willful  word,  and  they 
shall  reach  the  tempter's  throbbing 
heart.

twf'tn  Barnegat  and  Atlantic  City.  A 
stiff   northwest  gale  was  blowing. 

The  vessel  carries  nearly  sixty  pas-

the  Seneca,  putting  out  from  New  York 
under  forced  draught,  reported  by

"Too  thick  to  proceed  now."  said  the

Indianapolis.  Ind.,  Dec.  24. — United 
States  Senator  John  W.  Kern  argued 
in  behalf  of  the  forty  defendants  at 
the  "dynamite  conspiracy"  trial  today. 
I  He  appealed  to  the  jurors  to  remem.ber 
when  preparing  their  verdicts  that 
most  of  the  defendants  came  from  dis- 
tant parts  of  the  country. 

"Plain  working  men,"  he  said,  "some 
of  them  uneducated  Iron  workers, 
taken  from  their  homes  hundreds  or 
thousands  of  miles  away,  and  made 
to  face  a  strange  court  with  a  dis- 
trict attorney  hurling  harsh  and  abu- 
sive language  at  them — is  it  any  won- 
der that  some  of  them  became  con- 
fused? Is  It  any  wonder  that  some  of 
them  could  not  remember  details  of 
letters  they  wrote  five  years  ago? 
"Did    Not    Know    Charge." 

"Some  of  these  men  did  not  know 
what  they  were  charged  with.  They 
came  to  me  and  asked  me  what  It  was 
all  about.  I  had  to  explain  to  them 
that  they  were  not  charged  with  dy- 
namiting, but  only  with  tl-ansporting 
explosives    illegally. 

"You  Jurors  can't  convict  these  men 
of  crimes  with  which  they  ar§  not 
charged.  You  can't  convict  them  of 
causing  explosions,  but  only  of  carry- 
ing explosives  on  passenger  trains,   or

WALL  STREET  SPLITS 
UP  ABOUT  $I,80C,0C0 

Firms  There  Are  Making  An- 
nual Gifts  to  Em- 
ployes. 

New  York,  Dec.  24.— A  tidy  little 
fortune  in  Christmas  gifts  is  being 
placed  tod-ay  in  Wall  Street's  Christ- 
mas stocking.«.  It  is  estimated  that 
about  $1,000,000  will  be  pafd  out  this 
year  in  Christmas  presents  to  the 
army  of  salaried  emploves  in  the  fin- 
ancial (ii.strict.  The  distribution  has 
been  going  on  for  a  week,  but  in  the 
m-ajority  of  cases  the  payment  of  bon- 
uses is  made  on  the  day  before  Christ- 
mas. The  year  now  ending,  although 
a  fairly  prosperous  one  for  bankers 
hag  been  a  lean  one  for  stock  brok- 
ers, owing  to  the  dullness  in  specula- 
tion. For  this  reason  the  Christmas 
total  will  be  sm-aller  than  in  some 
former  years  In  which  trading  in 
stocks   wa.s    heavy. 

Practices    A'ary. 

In  some  houses  In  'the  street"  fi.xed 
amounts  in  gold  are  given  to  clerk« 
stenographer.^,  bookkeepers  and  me.s- 
senger.«.  and  in  others  the  emploves  re- 
ceive a  percentage  of  their  vearlv  sal- 
aries. One  of  the  large  trust "corn- 
ran  us  presented  to  each  employe,  from 
the  president  down,  ."io  per  cent  of  hi.s 
salary  for  the  year,  but  in  most  ca.--es 
the  am.iunt  is  much  smaller.  In  a 
large  mmiber  of  commission  houses  10 
per  c<  rit  is  paid. 

Employes  of  J.  P.  Morgan  &  Co.  will 
not  receive  their  bonuses  until  just  b-- 
fore  the  close  of  the  year.  Ten  years 
ago  their  present  was  a  vear's  salarv 
but  simc  that  time  10  per  cent  has 
usuallv  been  paid  to  clerks  affiliated 
with  the  firm  for  ten  j-ears  or  less  and 
15  per  cent  to  tho.se  who  have  been 
lliere  longer. 

^  There  is  a  growing  tendency  In  the 
financial  district  to  substitute  salary 
Increases  at  the  first  of  the  year  for 
Christmas  bonuses,  on  the  ground  that 
Indiscriminate  di.stribution  of  lump 
sums  places  no  premium  on  merit. 
Introdnoe    I'enMionM, 

A  number  of  large  Wall  .Street  in- 
stitutions also  have  introduced  the 
pension  system  for  superannuated  em- 
ployes in  place  of  Christmas  gifts 

Huge  placards  on  the  floor  of  the 
Ftock  exchange  today  reminded  the 
brokers  of  the  time-honored  Christmas 
fund  of  the  exchange  for  its  emploves, 
who  annually  receive  several  thousand 
dollars. 


Two  of  Those  Arrested  in 

Connection  With  Crime 

Are  Arraigned. 


Chicago,  Deo.  24. — A  missing  dia- 
mond, weighing  214  carats  and  valued 
at  ?600,  is  sought  by  the  police  as  the 
key  to  the  solution  of  the  mysterious 
murder  of  Joseph  P.  Logue,  diamond 
merchant,  who  was  slain  In  his  office 
last   Friday. 

The  diamond,  which  was  of  excep- 
tional brilliancy,  was  left  with  Logue 
by  a  blonde  woman  shortly  before  the 
victim's  body  was  found  bound  and 
mutilated,  and  was  missing  after  the 
murder.  Every  effort  made  by  the  po- 
lice to  find  this  woman  lias  thus  far 
proved  unsuccessful. 

The  police  still  are  of  the  opinion 
that  rJbbery  was  the  motive  for  the 
murder  and  that  the  or?me  was  com- 
mitted by  two  men  who  were  seen 
hurriedly  to  leave  the  floor  of  the  Mc- 
Vicker  Theater  building,  in  which 
Logue's  office  is  located,  shortlv  be- 
fore the  body  was  found  by  the  "office 
boy. 

Two  Men  Arraigned. 

Harry  Hampton  and  Frank  Williams, 
two  of  the  alleged  suspects  taken  into 
custody  in  connection  with  the  in- 
vestigation, were  arraigned  todav  be- 
fore Municipal  Judge  Scullv  and  "their 
cases  continued.  Hampton  is  charged 
with  robbery  and  with  having  bur- 
glars' tools  in  his  pos.session  His  cas^ 
was  continued  until  Dec.  30.  The  case 
against  William.s,  who  similarly  Is 
charged,   wa.s  set   for  Jan.   14. 

Williams,  who  is  said  to  have  robbed 
more  than  100  postoffiees  in  the  last 
year,  confessed  to  robbing  the  pos*- 
offlce  at  McCool,  Ind.,  several  weeks 
ago. 

Clyde  Ptratton,  alleged  safe  blower, 
will.  It  is  said,  be  returned  to  the  Ohio 
state  penitentiary  at  Columbus, 
whence  he  escaped  a  short  time  ago 
by  swimming  a  mile   through  a  sewer

DlJon,  France,  Dec.  24. — Francois 
Montel,  the  parish  priest  at  OJours, 
lias  been  arrested  on  a  charge  of  steal- 
ing government  bank  stocks  to  the 
value  of  $2,600  from  an  old  woman 
parishioner. 

The  stock  was  missed  eighteen 
months  ago  and  the  police  were  never 
able  to  trace  it.  Recently  the  executors 
of  the  woman,  who  had  died  mean- 
while, learned  that  a  person  who  since 
is  said  to  have  been  identified  as  Fath- 
er Montel,  tried  to  sell  the  stock.  It 
is  said  that  tho  priest  admitted  his 
guilt.

Springfield,  111.,  Dec.  24. — More  than

being  shipped  for  Christmas  trade  was 
in  the  big.  safe  of  the  express  car  on 
the-  Alton  "Hummer"  train,  which  was 
held  up  by  a  gang  of  bandits  near  lies 
Junction,  about  four  miles  from  here, 
shortly  after  midni.Kht  this  morning! 
But  although  the  robbers  used  enough 
dynamite  and  nitro-glycerin  to  destroy 
the  state  capitol,  they  did  not  succeed 
in  obtaining  a  dollar's  M'orth  of  loot, 
the  big  safe  resisting  five  terrific

Deputy  sheriffs  and  detectives  by 
the  score  are  searching  this  city  and

clew  as  to  the  identity  of  any  of  the

Rome.  Dec.  24.— The  pope  during  his 
reception  of  the  cardinals  today  re- 
ferred to  the  London  peace  conference, 
saying  that  all  Christians  should  unite 
in  prayer  that  the  outco.me  of  the  pres- 
ent counsels  of  the  nations  should  be 
peace,    for   which   he   rejoiced   to   think 

that  there  was  new  and  reasonable 
hope. 

The  pope— appeared  remarkably  well 
in  spite  of  the  arduous  task  of  re- 
ceiving many  delegations  who  had 
come  to  bring  him  greetings  of  the 
season. 

The  pope  this  morning  received 
the  members  of  the  sacred  col- 
lege, who  brought  their  Christmas 
greeting.  The  pontiff  did  not  deliver 
an  address.  The  ceremony  consisted  of 
a  simple  exchange  of  felicitation.  Car- 
dinals Farley  and  OConnell  both  tele- 
graphed their  Christmas  good  wishes 
to  the  pope  from  America.

MANY  ARRESI^  FOR 
AHAGKON  VICEROY 

Baron    Hardinge    Suffers 

Much  Pain  From  His 

Wounds. 

Delhi,  India,  Dec.  24.— The  attempt 
on  the  life  of  Baron  ..nd  Lady  Har- 
dinge yesterday  by  a^  Indian  fanatic 
kept  the  police  a«d  ...*  civil  autheri- 
ties  of  the  Imperial  city  of  India  oc- 
cupied today.  A  large  number  of  per- 
sons have  been  arresteck 

It  has  been  proved  that  at  least  150 
people  were  gathered  at  the  back  of 
tne  premises  from  which  the  bomb 
was  thrown.  In  the  vicinity  also  was 
a  dense  crowd  of  natives.  No  special 
police  arrangements  had  been  made 
for  the  occasion,  and  only  the  ordinary 
native  police,  commanded  by  British 
officers,    were   on    duty   in    the   streets. 

There  are  scores  of  theories,  but  no 
explanation  of  the  attack. 

A  bulletin  issued  this  morning  by 
the  doctors  in  attendance  on  the 
viceroy   says: 

"Baron  Hardinge  passed  a  restli»ss 
night.  It  was  necessary  to  relieve  his 
pain  by  injections  of  morphine.  He 
suffered  little  fever  last  night  and 
none    was   present   this  morning. 

"It  was  found  through  the  operation 
last  evening  that  the  muscle  under  the 
shoulder  blade  was  rather  severely 
torn." 


St.  Paul.  Minn..  Dec.  24. — (Special  to 
The  Herald.) — Charles  M.  Start,  vener- 
able chief  justice  of  the  Minnesota  su- 
preme court,  gathered  up  the  papers 
that  lay  before  him  when  court  ad- 
journed this  morning,  and  with  his  as- 
sociates, silently  moved  toward  the 
consultation  room.  The  session  had 
ended.  The  door  closed  behind  the  lit- 
tle group.  Calvin  L.  Brown,  chief  jus- 
tice-elect, turned  to  Mr.  Start  and  said: 

"Today  practically  ends  your  term  of 
service  as  a  member  of  this  court. 
Your  record  has  been  a  long  and  hon- 
orable one.  surpassed  by  none  of  your 
predecessors.  No  one  ever  came  to 
this  court  with  a  firmer  determination 
to  make  the  business  of  the  court  his 
sole  occupation,  than  yourself,  and  you 
ha\e  been  faithful  to  every  trust.  No 
member  of  this  court  has  exerted  a 
stronger  Influence  in  the  course  of  hu- 
man rights  than  yourself,  and  through 
your  guiding  hand  the  court  has  taken 
advanced  ground  along  these  lines. 
The  record  you  have  made  scattered 
through  more  than  fifty  volumes  of 
our  reports,  will  stand  for  years  to 
come,  a  fitting  monument  to  your  high 
character      and      judicial      attainments.

TRIES  TO^MURDER 
PRINCE  YAMAGATA 

Would-Be  Assassin   Gains 

Entrance  to  Palace, 

But  Is  Captured. 

Toklo,  Dec.  24.— An  attempt  was 
made  early  today  to  assassinate  Prince 
Aritomo  Yamagata.  the  president  of 
the  Japanese  privy  council  and  su- 
preme military  councillor  of  Japan. 
The  prince  escaped  unhurt.  His  as- 
sailant tried   to  commit   suicide. 

The  would-be  assassin  broke  into 
Prince  Yamagata's  residence  just  after 
midnight  and  endeavored  to  approach 
the  prince.  He  was,  however,  ob- 
served by  some  attendants,  and  he 
then  tried  to  commit  suicide,  but  was 
caught  and  prevented  as  he  was  in 
the  act  of  stabbing  himself.  He  was 
arrested  and  an  iBvestigatlon  la  pro- 
ceeding into  the  reason  for  his  at- 
tempt. 

Prince  Yamagata  was  the  chief  of  gen- 
eral staff  during  the  Russo-Japanese 
war.  He  is  well  known  in  all  the 
European  countries.

Colon,  Tec.  24. — President  Taft  ;ind 
hts  party  arrived  l^.ere  today  on  board 
the  United  States  warship  Arkansas. 
They  landed  at  S  oclock  this  morning. 
The  party  includes  the  president  and 
Mr.".  Taft,  Charles  P.  Taft.  Jr.,  Miss 
Louise  Tiiit.  Charles  D.  Hilles  and 
Mrs.  Jliili.s,  Beckman  Winthrop  and

The  trip  from  Key  West  was  an  un- 
eventful one.  The  weather  was  fine 
and  the  sea  smouth  throughout  the 
voyage. 

The   United  States  minister,  H.   Per- 


cival  Dodge;  a  number  of  canal  of- 
ficials and  President  Taft  and  party 
were  the  guests  todav  of  Col.  G  W 
Ooethals  at  Culebra.  '  Tomorrow  eve-

by  the  American  minister,  and  after- 
ward a  ball  in  the  palace  of  Presi- 
dent   Belisario    Porras    of    Panama 

President  Taft,  before  landing,  sent 
a  wireless  dispatch  to  Col.  Goethals 
asking  him  to  have  special  t»-a'/3  in 
readiness,  as  2,000  bluejackets  and  all

London.  Dec  34. — The  peace  plenipo- 
tentiaries of  the  Ottoman  empire  and 
of  the  Balkan  allies  have  for  the  most 
part  momentarily  cast  off  the  cares 
of  office,  and  are  enjoying  the  hospi- 
tality of  their  diplomatic  representa- 
tives in  Londcn,  who  are  entertaining 
In  their  honor,  or  are  visiting  friends 
in   the  eountrj. 

Two  or  three  of  them  have  gone  to 
Paris  to  consult  with  the  French 
premier,  Raymond  Poincare.  doubtless

The  present  long  break  in  the  nego-

all  probability,  only  the  first  of  sev-

counter-proposals.

New  York.  Dec  24.— A  blizzard,  born 
at  midnight  and  growing  each 
hour,  is  sweeping  New  York  and  the 
Northern  Atlantic  seaboara  today.  By 
noon  the  storm  had  blanketed  the  city 
with  t?^n  Inches  of  snow;  the  wind  had 
risen  to  a  forty-mile  gale  and  had 
driven  two  vessels  on  the  treacheroua 
beaches   of   the   New   Jersey    coast. 

With  the  snow  still  falling  at  mid- 
day, the  city  was  fast  becoming  storm- 
bound. In  the  open  places  the  snow 
was  drifted  to  a  depth  of  many  feet.^ 

The  local  weather  bureau  declared 
the  storm  would  continue  without 
abatement  for  some  hours  at  least,  and 
that  the  wind  would  attain  still  great- 
er velocity.  The  indications  were  that 
New  York  will  be  buried  under  the 
heaviest  Christmas  snow  in  a  genera- 
tion.

RAILROAD  MEN  GIVE 
$ID,0OO  BAIL  EACH 

Mellen    and    Chamberlain 

Both  Appear  Before 

Judge  Hough. 

New  York,  Dec.  24. — Charles  S.  Mel- 
len. president  of  the  New  York,  New 
Haven  &  Hartford  railroad,  and  E.  J. 
Chamberlain,  president  of  the  Grand 
Trunk  railway  of  Canada,  were  in  New 
York  this  morning  and  appeared  be- 
fore Judge  Hough  In  the  Federal  dis- 
trict court,  to  give  bail  and  answer  \o 
indictments  found  against  them  yes- 
terday, charging  them  with  violation 
of  the  Sherman  anti-trust  law.  The 
penalty,  upon  conviction,  is  one  year 
in  Jail,  a  fine  01  $5,000,  or  both. 

Neither  Mr.  Mellen  nor  Mr.  Cham- 
berlain has  had  any  extended  comment 
to  make  on  the  government's  charge 
which  is,  in  effect,  that  the  defendants 
entered  into  an  illegal  monopoly 
agreement,  the  result  of  which  v.as  to 
stop  the  construction  of  Grand  Trunk 
exten.«ions    into   New    England. 

Bail  was  fixed  at  $lo,oyo  each. 

Although  a  British  subject  with 
headquarters  in  London,  Alfred  AV. 
Smithers.  chairman  of  the  Grand 
Trunk  board  of  directors  and  co- 
defendant  with  Mellen  and  Chamber- 
lain, is  expected  to  come  voluntarily  to 
tills  country  to  plead  to  the  indictment.

bail  in  either  case  and  said  at  first  he 
would  release  the  defendants  on  their 
own  cognizance.  Counsel  for  the  gov- 
ernment, however,  objected  to  this  and 
called  the  court's  attention  to  the  fact 
that  neither  resided  within  the  juris- 
diction of  the  court.  Bail  was  fur- 
nished  by  a   surety  companv. 

Frank  L.  Crawford.  Mr.  Chambcrlin's 
cou  |:el.  said  before  leaving  the  court 
room:  "So  jury  ever  will  convict  mv

of  the  Grand  Trunk  extension  was

N.  Myers  and  Sam  Myers  pleaded 
guilty  in  police  court  this  morning  to

The  cass  against  Fannie  Myers  ana

dress  which  had  been  left  there  by  his

when  he  saw  him  go  Into  the  store

Here  are  some  pictures  of  what  de- 
liquent  boys  and  girls  from  this  city 
are  doing-  at  state  correctional  institu- 
tions. 

The  pictures  show  samples  of  work 
done  by  Duluth  boys  at  Red  Wing, 
where  the  state  industrial  school  is 
maintained.  The  collection  which  has 
been  photographed  is  in  possession  of 
F.  E.  Resche,  probation  officer.  It  in- 
cludes samples  of  sloyd  work  and  from 
the  training  school  blacksmith  shop. 

At  Sauk  Center,  where  the  Minne- 
sota state  home  for  girls  is  maintained, 
several  of  the  Duluth  girls  there  have 
been  taught  to  turn  out  some  excel- 
lent snecimens  of  fancy  sewing  work 
and  needle  craft.  Many  of  the  girls 
never  touched  a  needle  before  going 
there. 

The  bovs  at  Red  Wing  have  an  in- 
teresting daily  routine.  They  arise  at 
t;  o'clock  in  the  morning.  After  mak- 
ing their  toilet,  they  eat  breakfast, 
usuallv  about  HiiO.  From  7  to  7:30  the 
class  attending  school  in  the  forenoon, 
receives  its  instructions  in  singing. 
From  S  to  11:30  the  boys  attend  school. 
Their  training  is  similar  to  that  of  the 
public  schools.  Dinner  is  served  at  12. 
The  bov9  are  divided  into  seven  com- 
panies, "each  of  which  has  a  separate 
ulavground  which  they  are  permitted 
t»  U3e  during  tlie  hour  from  12:30  to 
l:2i>.  under  the  supervision  of  tne 
company  managers.  In  the  afternoon, 
tl\e  cla.-^s.  which  has  attended  school 
in  the  forenoon  goes  to  manual  train- 
ing shops  to  engage  in  tlieir  daily 
work  The  afternoon  class,  which  has 
been  'at  the  shops  during  the  forenoon 
goes  to  school.  Supper  is  served  at  o:.J0 
and  the  boys  are  given  the  use  of  the 
playgrounds  again  until  7  o  cock,  in 
cold  and  inclement  weather,  instead  of 
making  use  of  the  playgrounds,  each 
company  takes  advantage  of  the  cmb 
features  of  the  assembly  rooms  of  tnelr 
-ospective  cottages.  The  boys  retire  at 
.S  o'clock  and  all  talking  must  cease 
at  9  o'clock.

stead,  mattress,  sheets,  blankets  and 
pillows.  All  of  the  seven  companies 
eat  in  a  common  dining  room,  which  is 
a  large  auditorium,  sometimes  used  by 
the  bovs  in  putting  on  entertainments. 
No  outside  labor,  excepting  instructors 
and  superintendents,  is  employed  at 
the  institution,  all  the  necessary  work 
being  done  by  the  boys  themselves. 
Some  do  cooking  under  the  supervi- 
sion of  a  competent  chef;  others  serve 
the  food  under  the  direction  of  the  ma- 
tron in  charge  of  the  dining  hall,  while 
another  detail  of  workers  looks  after 
the  cleaning  of  the  buildings.  All 
laundrv  work  Is  done  In  a  steam  laun- 
dry, where  a  number  of  boys  are  kept 
busy  during   shop   hours. 

The  Shop  Feature*. 
The  shop  features  of  the  Institution 
include  besides  the  .steam  laundry,  a 
I  well  equipped  blacksmith  shop,  a  tailor 
shop,  paint  shop,  printing  shop,  from 
which  is  l.'sued  monthly  a  small  maga- 
zine; a  fully  equipped  sloyd  shop, 
v/l.ere  small  boys  are  taught  to  use 
■^^'oodWorking  tools,  and  a  shop 
equipped  with  woodworking  machinery 
for  the  older  boys,  where  most  of  the 
furniture  now  In  use  In  the  Institu- 
tion has  been  manufactured. 

In  the  summer  time  a  number  of 
bovs  are  placed  at  work  on  the  farm, 
thS  products  of  which  help  in  a  large 
measure  to  m-aintain  the  institution. 
The  boys  are  encouraged  dtiring  the 
hours  of  recreation  to  engage  in 
healthful  athletics  and  during  the 
summer  and  fall  seasons,  baseball, 
football  and  similar  sports  are  much 
in  evidence.  At  this  time  of  the  year, 
a  skating  rink  large  enough  to  ac- 
commodate all,  is  maintained.  A  lar^ 
gymnasium  is  now  being  built. 

The  total  population  at  the  Red 
Wing  institution  is  about  275  boys, 
ranging  in  age  from  8  to  21  years. 
None  are  committed,  however,  over  the 
age  of  17.  Their  stay  there  depends 
entirely  upon  their  behavior  until  they 
reach  the  age  of  21   years. 

Of  the  total  number,  about  fifty  are 
from  Duluth  and  St.  I-.ouis  county. 
The  average  number  of  committment.^, 
according  to  P.  E.  Resche,  probation 
officer  of  this  city,  is  about  thirty.  Ac- 
cording to  all  reports,  he  says,  the 
Duluth  boys  are  doing  as  well  as  can 
be  expected.  As  a  rule  the  boys  from 
this  city  have  shown  a  proper  appre- 
ciation of  what  is  being  done  for  them 
there  and  in  some  instances  have  pre- 
ferred the  Institution  to  their  homes. 
Tb«  GirW  Home. 
At  a  separate  institution  200  miles 
awav  from  Red  Wing,  the  state  main- 
tains a  home  school  for  girls  at  Sauk 
Center.  This  institution  receives  girls 
from  S  to  17  years  of  age,  who  are 
inclined  to  be  wayward  or  who  lack 
proper  surroundings  and  home  train- 
ing. The  cottage  feature  Is  main- 
tained at  this  institution,  even  more  so 
than  at  Red  Wing.  Girls  sent  there 
are  taught  housekeeping,  cooking  and 
sawing.    Each    girl     -B    encouraged     to

a  certain  amount  of  money  each  week, 
from  which  she  is  permitted  to  pur- 
chase articles  kept  at  the  school  store

being  inlUcted,  an  amount  of  their  al-

the  most  effective  and  satisfactory 
way  yet  found  to  deal  with  some  of 
the  delinquents  who  are  subjected  to 
discipline    there.

Biffing  kids  on  the  nose  with  beer 
bottles  or  swatting  them  across  the 
head  with  mopstieks  is  not  profitable 
amusement. 

The  police  say  that  the  newsies  are 
often  pests  and  run  in  and  out  of  sa- 
loons as  well  as  other  places  where 
they  have  no  business.  They  admit 
that  they  cannot  do  much  with  them. 
But  the  court  holds  with  them  that 
because  a  kid  makes  a  nuisance  of 
himself  does  not  excuse  a  man  for  rap- 
ping him  across  the  face  or  assaulting 
him. 

Last  evening  Charles  Malnella.  the 
small  son  of  Carlo  Mainulla,  went  into 
the  saloon  across  the  street  from  his 
father's  store  on  the  Bowery  to  sell 
papers.  He  came  out  with  a  bloody 
nose  and  the  water  works  turned  loose 
and  pumping  overtime.  Detectives 
Bradley    and    Toewe    heard    his    wails 


half  a  block  away  and  hastened  to  in- 
vestigate. The  ncwsie  sobbed  out  that 
a  drunken  man  In  the  saloon  had 
struck  him  across  the  face  with  a  beer 
bottle.  Thev  went  "with  him  Into  the 
place  and  tlie  boy  'pointed  out  Oscar 
Erickson  as  his  as.sailant.  He  was  ar- 
rested on  a  charge  of  assault  and 
pleaded  guilty  when  arraigned  in  po- 
lice   court    this    morning. 

Erickson  pleaded  that  the  kid  had  per- 
.qlsted  in  hanging  around  and  had  only 
tried  to  get  rid  of  him.  He  disclaimed 
any  intention  of  hurting  him  and  the 
boys  face  did  not  show  that  he  hai 
been  struck  a  severe  blow. 

"Fifty      dollars    and    costs     or     sixty 
days"   decreed  the  court.  Oscar  doesn  t 
sport    a    bank    account,    wherefore    le 
will  spend  the  holidays  and  some  othi  r 
days  in  the  sheriff's  hotel  over  the  hill. 
Earlier  in  the  day  Sam   Ezalle,  man- 
ager of  the  Dundee  Woolen  mills  store 
on   Superior  street  paid  a  fine  of  |22.1!4 
for     cracking     Mlstah     Elmer     Calhoun 
Richardson,    a    young    colored    gentle- 
man    over    the   coco    with    a    mopsticlc. 
It   appears   that    Mlstah   Elmor   Calhoun 
Richardson     had    been     hired    to    wash 
the   windows   of   the   store   Ezalle  man- 
ages      When   he   concluded   the  job   the 
manager     said     that     it     was     only     an 
nlleged    and    prefnded      washing.      He 
demanded    that    Mlstah    Richardson    do 
better        Mistah     Richardson     stood     <»n 
his    dignity    and    demanded    his    money, 
refusing   to   dq   the  job    or  alleged  and 
pretended  Job  over.    W  hereupon  the  tv/o 
got    into    a    quarrel    which    was    termi- 
nated   bv     Ezalle     with     the     mopstick. 
Mlstah  Richardson  promptly  got  out  a 
warrant  and  caused  his  arrest  for  hav- 
ing assaulted  him.^      ^

ELGIN  BOARD^ELECTS. 

Membors  Do  Not  Expect  Government 
to  Press  Its  Charges. 

Chicago,  Dec.  24. — At  the  first  meet- 
ing of  the  Elgin  Butter  board  since 
the    government    began    its    dissolution 

suit  against  the  organization,  officers 
for  the  year  were  elected.  They  were: 
Charles  H.  Potter,  Elgin,  president; 
Fred  Grell,  Johnson  Creek,  Wis.,  vice 
president;  J.  H.  Monahan,  Elgin,  treas- 
urer; Colin  W.  Firown,  Elgin,  secre- 
tary. The  selection  of  Potter  was  con- 
ceded   before    the    meeting    opened. 

President  Potter  threatened  to  eject 
Joseph  Newman  when  he  protested  the 
action  of  the  board  last  week  in  clioos- 


ing  directors.  He  was  ruled  out  of 
order.  Newman  then  demanded  a  stand- 
ing vote  and  President  Potter  became 
a  ngr.v. 

Members  were  of  the  opinion  that 
the  government  would  not  pre.-as  its 
suit  now  that  the  quotation  committee 
had   been  abolished. 


GAG  ON  NEWS  OF 

RUSSIAN  FORCES. 

St.  Petersburg,  Dec.  24.— An  imperial 
decree  forbids  the  circulation  of  mili- 
tary or  navy  news  of  any  kind  what- 
soever. The  decree  remains  in  force  for

MANY  NEW 
TOYS  SEEN 

Wonderful  Mechanical  De- 
vices to  Amuse  Children, 
on  the  Market. 


Most   of   New   Playthings 

Have  Been  Imported 

From  Germany. 


German-made  toys  have  been  4  great 
feature  in  the  Duluth  retail  stores 
during  the  present  Christmas  shop- 
ping season.  This  is  especially  true  of 
mechanical  playtiilng.s.  Many  toys, 
imported  from  Germany,  have  mado 
their  appearance  in  Duluth  this  winter 
for  the  first  time. 

Elephants,  donkeys,  bears  and  other 
animals,  covered  with  felt,  laige 
enough  for  a  child  to  sit  upon,  runniiig 
on  wheels,  and  with  a  strong  interior 
■frame-work  of  steel,  are  prominent  in 
the  great  stoek  of  pretty  tilings  that 
njereliants  iiave  brought  from  thai 
country  to  supply  the  needs  of  th- 
American  Santa  Claus.  Most  of  these 
artificial  bodies  contain  apparatus 
producing  the  appropriate  growl,  bruv 
or  grunt  when  a  string  is  pulled. 

Another  German  toy  that  has  made 
its  appearance  in  this  city  for  tlie  fir.st 
time  is  the  tin  airship,  wiiich  is  wound 
up  and  spins  its  screw  propeller  in 
realistic  fashion,  though  it  has  to  be 
supported  by  hanging  from  a  string. 
.\nother  is  a  little  tin  road  roller, 
which  is  likewise  wound  with  a  kev, 
and  reverses  its  action  automatically, 
aeting  like  the  big  rollers  at  work. 

The  walking  dogs  and  elephants, 
also  from  the  land  of  the  Kaiser,  have 
found   eager  customers. 

The  German  dachshund,  the  "Strubble 
Peter,"  from  the  same  country,  who 
would  not  cut  his  nails  or  comb  his 
hair,  and  the  Teutonic  policemen,  fai 
and  slim,  are  all  toys  of  felt  that  have 
proven  very  popular  and  have  had  a 
lively  sale. 

Another  German  toy  that  has  made 
quite  a  hit  is  the  Kestner  baby  doll, 
with  real  hair  and  real  skin,  from  the 
back  of  some  small  animal,  on  Its  head. 

Another  new  toy  that  has  proven 
quite  popular  among  those  who  are 
looking  for  something  that  will  last, 
is  a  doll  made  at  Cleveland  of  a 
compound  that  resembles  celluloid,  but 
i.s  claimed  to  be  absolutely  unbreakabl'^ 
and  Incombustible.  The  nature  of  .he 
compound  is,  of  course,  a  secret. 

The  toy  telephone  has  made  its  ap- 
pearance this  year.  The  receiver  and 
transmitter  are  of  tin  and  the  connec- 
tion merely  a  string,  but  if  two  per- 
sons hold  the  string  taut  they  can 
readily  transmit  the  sounds  of  their 
voices   through   the   instrument. 

A  little  electric  motor,  that  can  be 
run  by  being  attached  to  the  socket  of 
any  incandescent  light,  is  an  American 
toy  that  will  delight  many  an  Ameri- 
can boy  with  a  bent  for  the  study  of 
electrical  mechanics. 

The  strictly  new  toys  are  necessarily 
few,  for  the  American  markets  have 
for  many  years  been  supplied  with  the 
very  latest  productions  of  the  world'f 
thought  and  ingenuity  along  that  line. 
Most  of  the  toys  that  are  on  display 
in  the  stores  are  of  kinds  that  have 
been  seen  before.  Yet  never  were  iht; 
toy  displays  on  the  whole  so  attractive 
and  so  intensely  Interesting  as  th^y 
have  been  this  winter,  with  the  very 
latest  together  with  the  best  of  the 
old. 


ONLY  DEMOCRAT  IS 
AFTER  FEDERAL  JOB 


Sole  Member  of  Party  in 

Logan  County  Two  Years 

Ago  Boomed. 

Napoleon,  N.  D.,  Dec.  24. —  (Special  to 
The  Herald.) — At  the  primary  election 
two  years  ago  in  Logan  county  only 
one  man  asked  for  a  Democratic  bal- 
lot. The  records  showed  that  it  was 
O.  T.  House,  for  more  thaa  thirty 
years  a  resident  of  this  section  and 
always  a  Democrat.  He  is  an  appli- 
cant for  the  local  postoffice  and  tlie 
patrons,  regardless  of  politics,  will 
petition  President  Wilson  after  March 
4  to  name  Mr.  House,  despite  the  faot 
that  there  are  a  number  of  other  ap- 
plicants. 

DROP  SMUGGLING  CASE. 

No  Further  Prosecution  of  C.  H.  Ol- 
son of  Cando,  N.  D. 

Cando,  N.  D.,  Dec.  24. — (Special  to 
The  Herald.) — Some  months  ago  there 
was    considerable    publicity    given    the 

alleged  smuggling  case  against  C.  H. 
Olson,  the  horse  inspecter  of  this  place. 
It  was  asserted  he  had  smuggled  valu- 
able goods  when  bringing  in  shipments 
of  horses  from  France.  Special  Agent 
Foulkes  of  the  treasury  department 
was  here  and  made  Mr.  Olson  give  him 
a  |1,000  check.  This  has  been  returned 
to  Mr.  Olson  by  United  States  District 
Attorney  Engerud  and  Mr.  Olson  en- 
tirely  exculpated  from   all   blame. 

CONVicf'PIGGERS. 

Morton  County,  N.   D.,  Juries  Sur- 
prise Prosecuting  Officials. 

Mandan,  N.  D.,  Dec.  24. —  (Special  to 
The  Herald.) — New  records  for  the 
conviction  of  bllndplggers  In  a  Mis- 
souri slope  country  were  established 
at  the  Morton  county  district  court 
term  has  adjourned  till  after  the  holi- 
days. 

Four  convictions  were  secured  by 
prosecuting  officers  and  there  are 
eleven  cases  remaining.  In  two  cases 
acquittals  resulted.  State  officials 
had  sought  a  change  of  venue  on  the 
plea  that  convictions  were  impossible 
In    this   county. 

The  remaining  cases  will  be  tried 
after  the  holidays. 


MAY  ABANDON  CONTEST. 

Settlement  of  Minot  Doctor's  Estate 
Out  of  Court  Predicted. 

Minot,  N.  D.,  Dec.  24. —  (Special  to 
The  Herald.) — It  is  probable  that  the 
will  made  by  Dr.  J.  D.  Taylor  of  Minot 
In  a  St.  Paul  hospital  last  October,  Just 
a  few  days  before  his  death,  will  be 
ignored,  and  that  a  division  of  the 
estate  will  be  made  upon  the  basis  of 
an  agreement  which  is  being  drawn 
by  legal  heirs  and  those  named  in  the 
will.  A  contest  against  the  will  was 
launched  here  on  the  contention  that 
Dr.  Taylor  was  mentally  incompetent 
to  draw  a  will  at  the  time. 


Take  Other  'Warehonae  Reeeipta. 

Milwaukee,  Wis.,  Dec.  24. — The  Mil- 
waukee chamber  of  commerce  has 
voted  to  amend  its  rules  so  as  to 
provide  that  warehouse  receipts  In 
other  markets  are  deliverable  here, 
providing  that  at  the  time  of  the 
sale  the  name  of  the  warehouse  into 
which  the  grain  will  be  shipped  is 
specified.  A  few  years  ago  such  a 
rule  was  in  force  here,  but  was  amend- 
ed to  read  that  all  deliveries  must 
>'^  made  from  elevator  "A"  Milwau- 
kee.

line,  but  is  consistently  and  persist- 
ently missing  the  bridges,  the  residents 
of    Park    Poini    say.     As    there    is    only 


a  twenty-minute  service  on  the  bridge, 
the  result  is  easy   to  figure  out. 

The  complaint  against  the  board  of 
public  works  is  based  on  the  fact  that 
the  bridge  engineers  are  running  the 
structure  on  a  strlft  time  schedule. 
This  morning,  it  is  said,  the  bridge 
started  from  the  Park  Point  side  of 
the  canal  when  a  car  was  only  two 
blocks  away. 

The  Park  Point  people  sav  that  the 
traction  company  is  harassing  them  on 
account  of  their  complaint  that  the 
cars  were  not  running  to  the  end  of 
the  line.  Now  the  whole  Point  is  up  In 
arms  and  another  protest  to  the  citjr 
council  may  be  expected.

Each  year  there  is  a  mysterious  bene-

Herald  a  check  covering  the  cost  of 
the  papers  which  the  little  mercliants

to  liave  the  entire  income  of  the  eve-

Tile  train  robbers  rode  out  of 
.Springfield  on  the  blind  baggage,  im- 
mediately in  the  rear  of  tiie  locomo- 
tive of  the  fast  Kansas  City  train  on 
tile  Chi(ago  &  Alton  railroad,  whicii 
left  here  about  \z  o'clock  last  night. 
Near  lies  Junction  they  crawled  over 
the  tender  and  compelled  the  engine- 
men,  at  the  points  of  revolvers,  to  stop 
the  train.  The  engine,  together  witli 
the  express  car,  was  detached  from  the 
rest  of  tlie  train  and  run  a  couple  of 
hundred    yards    ahead. 

Shot   Over   Pa.<«!4engers. 

Passenger.s  who  aligiited  from  the 
coaclies  in  tlie  rear  to  determine  the 
cause  of  the  delay  were  hustled  back 
to  their  places  by  careless  shooting  by 
one   of  the   bandits. 

Express  Messenger  Fred  Aycrs  was 
ordered  out  of  his  car  and  to  keep 
within  range  of  the  weapon  with  whicli 
tlie  engineer  and  firemen  were  cov- 
ered, wiiile  two  of  the  bandits  pro- 
ceeded to  the  task  of  breaking  into  the 
big   safe. 

Horace  Smith,  the  rear  brakeman  of 
the  train,  nieanwhile  was  speeding  to- 
ward lies  Junction  to  give  the  alarm. 
The  robbers  had  neglected  to  guard 
the  rear  of  the  train.  Before  they 
could  effect  an  entrance  to  the  treas- 
ure the  rescue  party,  armed  with  rifles 
and  shotgun.s,  had  arrived,  and  the 
ilesperudoes  beat  a  hasty  retreat  and 
eluded  capture  by  dashing  into  thick 
woods  on  one  side  of  the  track.  There 
all    trace    of   them    was    lost. 

Bulletin  a.s  ArKuments. 

"While  tlie  train  was  held  uji  by  the 
desperadoes.  Conductor  John  C.  Bo>d 
of  Chicago,  followed  by  a  group  of 
passengers,  started  to  make  an  inves- 
tigation. Tliey  were  repulsed  by  a 
command  to  "'get  back  there  damn 
you!"  made  more  emphatic  by  accom- 
panying   I'evolver    shots. 

When  Flagman  Horace  Smith  ran 
back  and  notified  the  operator  at  lies, 
tile  latter  wired  to  the  Alton  offices  in 
."Springfield,  a  switcli  engine  was  pressed 
into  service  and  fifteen  deputies,  po- 
lice officers  and  detectives  were  sent 
to   the   si'-ene. 

Engineer  O.  O.  Hanks  was  at  the 
tlirottle  of  the  switch  engine.  To  make 
the  approach  less  noticeable,  he  dark- 
ened his  headliglit  and  trusted  to  the 
moon  to  prevent  possilde  collision  or 
accident.  When  the  switch  engine  ap- 
peared on  the  scene  the  officers  plain- 
ly could  see  two  of  the  men  at  work 
rifling  an  express  package  at  a  point 
.iiiout  200  yards  from  the  train.  At 
first  the  pair  paid  no  heed  to  the 
switch  engine's  arrival,  but  when  the 
officers    stepped    down    the    men    fled. 

The  officers  endeavored  to  surround 
the  men,  but  the  latter  took  to  th^ir 
heels    and    disappeared. 

SiiMiteetM   Arrested. 

Several  suspects  have  been  taken 
to  the  police  station  and  questioned  by 
Chief  Underwood,  who  believes  the 
bandits   are   in    hiding   in   Springfield. 

Neighboring  towns  were  notified  be- 
fore  daylight  to    be   on   the   lookout   for 

s!>ects.  If  definite  clews  are  not 
found  today  Sheriff  Me.ster  probably 
will  reiiuest  Governor  Deneen  to  is- 
sue a  proclamation  offering  a  re- 
ward.

Effect  of  One  Bottle 

Crandall,  Tex.— "After  my  last  spell 
of  sJcknc-is,"  writes  Mrs.  Belle  Teal, 
of  this  city,  "I  remained  very  ill,  and 
stayc'i  in  bed  for  eight  weeks.  I 
couUhi't  get  tjp,  all  this  time,  and 
though  mj'  doctor  came  to  see  me 
every  day,  he  didn't  do  ine  any  good. 
I  had  taken  btit  one  bottle  of  Cardiii, 
when  I  was  tip.  going  everywhere,  and 
60oi:  I  was  doing  all  my  housework." 
Cardui  helps  when  other  medicines

Attacked  MeManigral. 

Attacking  Ortie  E.  McAIanigal,  the 
confessed  dynamiter,  as  "the  greatest 
criminal  of  ills  time,"  Senator  Kern 
said  the  government's  charges  were 
liastd  largely  upon  what  McManigal 
had    said. 

"This  McManigal  came  here  with  a 
brazen  face  and  related  his  crimes 
with  an  air  of  triumph,"  said  the 
senator.  "Would  you  permit  a  contest 
ever  a  cow  to  be  decided  by  the  word 
of  such  a  man? 

"It  has  been  said  that  the  National 
Erectors'  association  and  the  United 
States  .Steel  corporation  had  nothing  to 
do  with  this  case.  But  it  is  has  been 
shown  here  that  the  agents  of  the 
National  Erectors'  association  took 
from  the  Iron  Workers'  union  liead- 
quarters  60,000  letters.  From  those 
the  government  took  400  letters  in 
which  it  was  sought  to  show  a  con- 
spiracy existed. 

"Did  the  government  read  all  those 
400  letters?  No,  only  parts  of  the  let- 
ters were  read — the  parts  which  the 
prosecution  thought  showed  a  con- 
spiracy. 

"Why.  since  the  time  for  change  in 
the  administration  in  this  country  ap- 
proached, I  have  received  scores  of  let- 
ters on  a  variety  of  subjects.  If  you 
read  those  letters  literally  you  might 
convict  the  writers  with  almost  any 
charge  you  wished  to  make  against 
them." 

The    Erectors'    association,    to    which 


Senator  Kern  referred.  Is  an  organiza- 
tion of  "open  sliop"  contractors, 
against  whom  tlie  Iron  workers'  union 
hud  called  a  strike. 

Conviction  "Wolild   Be   Anarchy." 

"If  you  listen  to  the  assertions  of 
the  government,  and,  without  remem- 
bering tho  evidence,  you  bring  back 
verdicts  finding  these  forty  men  guilty, 
It  will  be  anarchy  of  the  worst  kind," 
asserted  Senator  Kern. 

Iteferring  to  what  he  called  "the  in- 
terests which  wanted  to  see  those  men 
prosecuted.  Senator  Kern  said: 

"When  the  greatest  criminal  of  the 
century  is  prosecuted — and  it  will  be — 
It  would  be  an  act  of  retribution  it 
these  laboring  men  now  on  trial  were 
called  upon  to  pass  upon  the  letters 
that  would  be  produced." 

Senator  Kern  attempted  to  show 
that  the  evidence  against  Olaf  A. 
Tveitmoe  and  Eugene  A.  Clancy  of  San 
Francisco;  Frank  K.  Painter  of  Omaha; 
Michael  J.  Haiinon  of  Scranton,  Pa., 
and  against  otlier  defendants  "wus  not 
sufficient  to  convict  them."

And  though  you  now  cease  active  par- 
ticipation in  the  work  of  the  court, 
you  will,  in  the  many  opinions  writ- 
ten and  left  behind,  remain  a  potent 
factor  in  the  work  of  this  court  for 
many  years  to  come. 

"The  uniform  kindness  and  courte-qy 
shown  to  your  associates  the  help  and

them,  has  endeared  them  to  vou  bv

authorize  nie  to  say  this  much  to  vou, 
and  as  further  evidence  of  their "  es-

that  you  accept  with  it  the  high  re- 
gard, the  friendship  and  affection  of 
those    who    present    it    to    you." 

As  he  spoke  he  handed  the  chief 
justice  a  handsome  gold  mounted  cane, 
made  from  Spanish  snakewood,  and 
engraved — 

"Charles  M.  Start,  Chief  Justice,  1895- 
1913." 

The  chief  .iustice  was  vislblv  af- 
fected by  the  speech  and  offering.  He 
replied  in  low  voice,  thanking  them 
for  the   gift. 

Justice  Start  will  swear  in  his  suc- 
cessor Jan.  G.  Practically  all  if  not 
all  the  cases  in  which  he  has  partici- 
pated, not  yet  decided,  will  be  decided

destroyed  on  his  land  which  Is  located 
on  the  west  half  of  the  southwest  quar-

Phi  fraternity.  His  full  name  is 
Charles  Olcott  Young,  and  it  was  in 
the  Columbia  college  glee  club  that  he 
got   his   first    training. 

"I  was  headed  for  the  profession  of 
law."  said  Mr.  Young  last  evening, 
"but  when  I  got  to  New  York  I  found 
thousands  of  young  lawyers  who  were

Hostetter  Says   Suggestion 

of  Bemidji  Man  is 

Good  One. 


A.  B.  Hostetter,  superintendent  of 
agiiculture  of  tho  I>uluth  Commercial 
club,  believes  that  sheep  raising  can  be 
made  an  important  industry  in  Min- 
nesota. 

Mr.  Hostetter  igrees  with  the  senti- 
ments expressed  by  J.  J.  Upsahl  of  Be- 
midji in  a  communication  publislied  in 
The  Herald  last  evening. 

"Sheep  require  a  certain  amount  of 
open  country  and  are  at  a  disadvan- 
tage in  thick  brush,  but  there  are 
large  tracts  in  the  northern  part  of 
the  state  that  ;ire  very  suitable  for 
sheep  raising,"  staid  Mr.  Hostetter  to- 
da>'. 

"Some  attempi-9  at  sheep  raising 
have  been  made  in  this  part  of  the 
state,  but  they  1  ave  failed  on  account 
of   lack    of   enterprise.     A    man    cannot 


turn  sheep  loose  without  attention. 
The  herds  must  have  keeptV.^  to  llv« 
with  the  sheep  and  direct  theif  move- 
ments so  that  they  will  not  get-  ^^^^ 
land  that  is  unsuitable  for  them. 

"The  rocky  hills  of  Vermont  hav* 
been  producing  wool  for  years.  Ther« 
Is  no  rea.son  why  much  land  In  IhU 
part  of  the  state,  now  unsuitable  fot 
agriculture,  should  not  be  devoted  t<j 
slieep  raising.  Land  must  be  cheap  tc 
make  she<.-p  raising  pjofitable,  but  the 
land  in  this  part  of  the  state  that  is 
unsuitable  for  agriculture  is  cheap 
enough  for  the   purpose. 

"TJie  woolen  industry  is  growing  In 
this  state.  The  manufacture  of  mack- 
inaws  and  blankets  in  Duluth  is  ba-  •. 
coming  an  important  industry,  and 
there  are  cloth  and  woolen  mills  in 
other  .sections  of  the  stote.  With  a 
market  near  at  hand,  the  sheep  rais- 
ing Industry  should  flourish,  if  it  W 
conduct«-'d    on    the   propei-   basis."

SERMON  ON 

SPIBITUflUSM 

David   Warfield   Seeks   to 

Preach  Life  After  Death, 

Dramatically. 

Before  a  moderately  large  audience 
at  the  I.yceum  last  evening  David 
Warfield  m*de  his  appearance  in  the 
Belasco  play,  "The  Return  of  Peter 
Grimm." 

"The  Return  of  Peter  Grimm"  is  an 
excursion  into  "the  undi.scovered 
country,  from  whose  bourn  no  traveler 
returns.  It  is,  moreover,  a  dramatic 
expounding  of  the  doctrines  of  modern 
spiritualism. 

In  this  curious  play  David  Belasco 
and  David  Warfield  have  conspired  to 
present  dramatically — and  therefore 
i"ragmentarily — a  theory  of  spirit-life' 
after  death.  They  have  sought  to  tell 
the  story  of  a  man  who  died  and  who 
afterward  came  back,  like  the  ghost  of 
Hamlet's  father,  to  set  his  house  in 
order. 

But,  though  Peter  Grimm  is  visible 
and  audible  to  the  audience  after  his 
return,  no  one  of  his  friends  or  family 
can  see  or  hear  him.  save  a  sick  lad, 
who,  to  use  the  psychical  term,  is  a 
"sensitive." 

The  difficulties  In  the  way  of  mak- 
ing a  stage  story  of  this  sort  con- 
vincing are  evident.  The  ghost  in 
•Hamlet."  though  it  appears  but  brief- 
ly and  in  the  supernatural  guise  dic- 
tated by  tradition,  is  seldom  con- 
vincing to  the  modern  theater-goer. 
But  Peter  Grimm  returns  in  his  own 
likeness  and  habiliments,  including  his 
•'funny  old  hat."  He  speaks  in  his 
natural  voice,  he  does  characteristic 
things,  he  exhibits  the  old  traits, 
though  sublimated  by  the  breadth  and 
loftiness    of    his    new     knowledge. 

So  far  as  the  acting  is  concerned, 
however,  Mr.  Warfield  has  to  do  about 
all  of  that  in  the  first  act,  where  he 
reveals  the  living  Peter,  with  his  lov- 
able crotchets,  pis  kindly  obstinacy, 
his  pride  of  farhily,  his  capacitv  for 
generous  affection.  This  is  a  fine  pic. 
ture  in  the  -best  Warfield  manner.  It 
is  the  basis,  of  course,  of  what  Is  to 
come.  When  Peter  returns,  Mr.  War- 
fields  opportunities  are  lessened,  for 
this  is  a  refined,  a  saintly  sweet  su- 
perman, who  has  lost  e.xactly  that 
human  quality  which  brought  him  so 
close  in  the  first  act.  He  Is  no  long- 
er affectionately  dunderheaded.  no 
longer  lovingly  obstinate.  It  is  as 
the  living  Peter  that  Mr.  Warfield 
achieves  something  fine  and  .iustifles 
his  art.  As  the  returned  Peter  he 
walks  through  the  rest  of  the  plav 
a  spirit,  an  Influence,  a  being  whom 
we    cannot    Qu'te    understand. 

The  other  characters  of  the  play  are 
Individual  plptures,  each  worthy  of  its 
setting,  each  a  finely  wrought  concep- 
tion, deserving  of  more  discriminating

maybe  better.  I  decided  I  would  not 
starve  and  Immediately  fell  back  on 
the  thing  I  knew  next  best  to  the  law, 
and  that  was  the  art  of  entertaining. 
I  have  never  regretted  the  change.  Mv 
present  profession  may  not  be  as  dig- 
nified as  the  law.  but  it  is  a  sight

just    as   honest." 

A  special  Christmas  matinee  will  be 
held  at  the  Orpheum  tomorrow  and

he  will  hold  the  curtain  until  2:45  in 
order  that  everybody  mav  have  a

WONDERFUL  SHIP 

DESIGNED  BY  BOY 


The  "Grandfifcld  Whit.,,'  an  tvact 
reproduction  of  one  of  the  largest 
freight  vessels  on  the  Great  Lakes,  Is 
attracting  marked  attention  where  it 
Is  on  exhibition  in  the  display  window 
of    the   Kelley    Hardware    company. 

The  "Grandfield  White,"  which  Is  a 
miniature  vessel  five  feet  In  length, 
•quipped  with  wireless  and  all  mod- 
ern devices,  was  designed  and  con- 
structed by  George  A.  Cook,  son  of 
Postmaster  Arthur  P.  Cook  of  this 
city,  the  young  man's  ability  as  an 
architect  having  elicited  much  favor- 
able comment  by  the  hundreds  of  in- 
terested spectators  who  have  viewed 
the  boat. 

The  one  for  whom  the  freighter  was 
named  is  no  less  a  personage  than  the 
small  grandson  of  Hon.  Charles  Grand- 
field  of  Washington,  first  assistant 
ostmaster  general,  the  youngster 
aving  readied  the  dignified  age  of 
five  months  on  Dec.  13.  He  is  the  only 
child  of  Attorney  Harry  Faber  White 
and  Mr.<».  White   of  East  Fourth  street.

MME.  BLOCH  ACQUITTED, 

Paris  Novelist  Who  Killed  American 
Woman  Is  Freed. 

Paris,  Dec.  24. — Mme.  Bloch,  a  nov- 
elist, who  on  July  31  last,  shot 
and  killed  Mrs  Mirnie  Bvidi^eman, 
wife  of  James  E.  Bridgcman,  an  em- 
ploye of  the  Paris  branch  of  an 
American  life  insurance  company,  has 
been  acquitted  in  the  assize  court  herf: 
of  the  charge   of  homicide. 

The  tra.i;cdy  was  the  outcome  of  an 
attachment  betw<,-c  n  Mme.  Bloch'a  hos 
banl  and  Mrs.  Bridgcman,  who  was  a 
daughter  of  Henry  Bernard  of  Mil- 
waukee. The  acquittal  of  tlse  defend- 
ant had  been  said  by  her  lawyers  vir- 
tuall.v  to  be  a  foregone  concl.ision 
owing  to  the  circumstances  under 
which  the  crime  was  committed.  The 
accused  woman  was  condemned,  how- 
ever, to  pay  1  franc  damages  in  con- 
nection with  the  civil  action  of  which 
the  shooting   »vas  the   basis 

•'Mrs.  Bridgt^man  betrayed  me  and 
robbed  me  both  of  my  husband  and  of 
my  home.  So  I  killed  her."  This  was 
the    defense    set    up    by    Mme.    Bloch. 


EDITOR  IS  BARRED, 

Briton  Who  Libelled  King  George  Will 
Be  Deported. 

New  York.  Dec.  24. — Edward  F. 
Mylliis.  the  Englishman  convicted  in 
London  of  libelling  King  George  V  and 
sentenced  to  .serve  a  year  in  prison, 
has  been  ordered  deported  by  the  com- 
missioner of  immigration  at  Ellis  Isl- 
and. Myllus  was  held  to  be  an  unde- 
sirable alien  and  probably  will  return 
on   the  vessel   which  brought  him  here. 

Myllus  published  a  sensational  story 
that  the  English  sovereign  had  con- 
tracted a  morganatic  marriage  In  Mal- 
ta in  1880.  The  story  was  disproved 
in  an  action  for  libel  brought  against 
him  by  the  solicitor  general  of  Eng- 
land. He  was  sentenced  to  a  vears 
imprisonment,  his  term  expiring  Dec. 
7,    liill.

Kenmare,  N.  D..  Dec.  24. — Harry 
Armstrong,  a  miner,  was  brought  to 
tliis  city  from  the  Bertelson  mines, 
north  of  here,  and  was  taken  to  the 
hospital.  Armstrong  was  the  victim 
of  a  fall  of  clay  in  the  mine,  the  heavy 
mass  falling  on  hi.s  head  in  such  a 
manner  that  his  tongue  was  completely 
severed  and  he  was  otherwise  bruised 
about  the  head.     He  will  recover. 


J^enate  "I'roKPewnlveH." 

They  are  going  to  organize  the  sen- 
ate  on  progressive   linos. 

"They"  Include  such  ardent  progres- 
sives an  Senator  George  H.  Sullivan  of 
Stillwater,  Senator  F.  A.  Duxbury  of 
Caledonia.  Senator  W.  W.  Dunn  of  St. 
Paul,  Senator  George  C.  Carpenter  of 
Buffalo  and  Senator  Dan  M.  Gunn  of 
Grand  Rapids. 

Former  Senator  E.  E.  Smith  of  Min- 
neapolis, chiiirman  of  the  Republican 
state  central  committee,  is  popularly 
reputed  to  be  behind  the  movement, 
and  who.  except  99  9-10  per  cent  of  the 
population  of  the  state,  would  question 
-Mr.    Smith's    progressiveness? 

Senator  George  11.  Sullivan  of  Still- 
water preached  tlie  'Let  well  enough 
alone'  doctrine  from  the  rear  of  the 
Eberhart  special  train  in  St.  Louis 
county  last  fall,  and  that  alone  estab- 
lishes his  progressiveness. 

The  other  senators  mentioned  have 
usually  been  progressive  in  their  efforts 
to  prevent  the  people  from  having  what 
they   wanted. 

"The  senate  is  a  self-governing  body 
and  should  not  delegate  its  powers  to 
a  presiding  officer  to  protect  the  peo- 
ple's interests,"  the  leaders  in  the  sen- 
ate combine  say. 

"The  fact  should  also  be  remembered 
— that  in  organizing  along  progressive 
lines,  the  senate  commits  itself  to  a 
program  of  progressive  legislation," 
says  the  Minneapolis  Tribune,  which 
reliects  the  Ed  Smith  brand  of  progres- 
siveness. 

One  can  imagine  Senator  George  H. 
Sullivan  standing  in  the  senate  cham- 
ber making  an  impassioned  v>lea  for 
the  initiative  and  referendum  with  per- 
centages of  3  and  5  per  cent. 

If  the  senate  "organizes  along  pro- 
gressive lines."  Senator  W.  W.  Dunn 
may  be  expected  to  champion  a  law 
against  brewery  ownership  of  saloons. 

Senator  Duxbury  will  probably  intro- 
duce and  lead  the  fight  for  a  bill  pro- 
viding for  a  public  utilities  commi.ssi  ^n 
Avitli  all  the  powers  of  ihs  Wisconsin 
commission. 

It  is  not  too  much  to  expect  that 
Dan  Gunn  will  be  t'.ij  father  of  a  bill 
which  will  allow  ihe  Roos-'Velt  men  in 
Minnesota  to  enter  the  next  campaign 
with  party  standing,  and  to  take  part 
In   the  primary  election. 

The  short  ballot  and  non-partisan 
county  office  elections  will  pro'.jably 
be  the  pet  legislation  of  Senator  Car- 
penter. 

Surely  the  Interests  of  the  people 
would  be  protected  if  the  S'  nate  were 
to  'organize  along  pro.'^ressive  lines,"' 
by  taking  the  power  of  committee  ap- 
pointments out  of  the  hands  of  Lieu- 
tenant Governor  Burnciuist  and  placing 
it  in  the  charge  of  a  committee  of 
ardent  progressives.  Nominations  for 
the  committee  are  hereby  suggested- 
Senators  Sullivan,  Duxbury,  Dunn. 
Carpenter  and  Gunn. 

Lieutenant  Governor  Burnquist,  who 
Is  a  progressive,  has  not  yet  given 
his  sanction  to  the  plan  to  name  a 
committee  on  committees  in  the  senate. 
Senators  Sallivan  and  Duxbury  expect 
the  new  lieutenant  itovernor  to  fall  in 
v.ith  their  plan,  but  for  some  reason 
he  is  shy.  Perhaps  he  fears  tl.e 
"progressiveness"  of  those  who  are 
pushing  the  plan.  It  may  be  that  he 
will  come  out  in  opposition  to  it.  Of 
course  the  people  elected  Buvaouist  as 
a  progressive,  but  they  didn't  » xpect 
him  to  attempt  to  thv.art  the  will  of 
such  whole-hearted  friends  of  the  dear 
people  as  Senators  Sullivan,  Duxbury, 
Dunn,  Carpenter  and  Gunn.

Reapportionment. 

The  Albert  Lea  Tribune   has   the  fol 
lowing    on    reapportionment,     shoA\ing 
the    attitude    of    one      portion    of    the 
Southern  Minnesota  people; 

There  Ijas  been  a  great  deal  said 
of  late  about  the  matter  of  reappor- 
tionment at  the  coming  session  of 
the  legislature.  It  is  said  that  the 
northern  part  of  the  state  is  very 
much  worked  up  about  the  matter 
and  is  bound  to  have  a  reapportion- 
ment bill  at  this  session,  or  hold  up 
all   legislation.  . 

There  ought  to  be  no  difficulty  in 
getting  a  just  and  fair  reapportion- 
ment measure  through  the  legisla- 
ture and  that  without  any  threats  of 
what  will  be  done  if  it  is  not  passed. 
There  may  be  here  and  there  a  mem- 
ber of  the  legislature  in  the  south- 
ern part  of  the  state  who  is  opposed 
to  a  reapportionment  bill  of  any 
kind,  especially  should  it  make  any 
decided  change  in  his  district.  But 
as  a  whole  we  do  not  believe  there 
will  be  any  considerable  opposition 
to  a  measure  which  will  do  justice 
to  all  parts  of  the  state. 
The  north  part  of  the 
serves  a  readjustment  of 
lative  districts  of  the  state,  so  that 
it  may  have  its  just  representation. 
This  it  can  easily  secure  by  working 
with  the  southern  part  of  the  state. 

AVe    do   not   believe   that    the   lead- 
ing members  of  the  legislature  from 
this   part  of   the  state  have   ever  had 
any    objection    to    a    measure    which 
would    treat    all    parts    of    the    state 
fair.         What    they    objected    to    has 
been    the   scheme    by   which    the    big 
cities  gobbled  all   of  the  representa- 
tion   which    was    taken    away    from 
the    Southern    counties.     In    the    last 
legislature    the    measure    which    was 
proposed,    gave    very    little      to      the 
Northern   counties,   but  nearly  all   of 
the   members   taken  from   the  South- 
ern counties  were  given  to  the  cities. 
It  is  the   disposition  of  the  interests 
centered    in    the   big   cities      to      hog 
everything  and  place  it  where  it  can 
be  handled  by  tb^m.   which   has  done 
ore   than   anything   else   to  prevent 
reapportionment    from    being    carried 
through.     Let    the    North    and    South 
counties    work    together,     and    there 
will    be   no    difficulty    in    arriving   at 
basis   where  the   northerti   portion   of 
the    state   will   secure   its    full    rights 
of   representation   as  it  should   have.

Stranee  Point  of  TIctt. 
The    St.     Peter     Free     Press     has     a 
strange    point    of     view — one     that     is 
common    in    the    soutliern    pr.rt    of    the 
state,    but    that   i.^    hard    to    understi'nd 
by  the  people  in   this  section: 

Hats  off  to  St.  Louis  county!  I'hat 
county  pays  more  than  21  per  cent  of 
all  the  state  taxes,  and,  conseqi'Utnly 
will  pay  21  per  cent  of  the  entire 
amount  that  the  1-mlll  road  tax  will 
produce,  and  St.  Louis  county  gave  a 
clear  majority  of  3.151  for  the  good 
roads  amendmcjit.  In  the  next  legis- 
lature when  demagogues  are  in-

it  would  be  well  to  remember  these 
facts. — Princeton  Union.

Utterly  Wretched 


XorvouM  ProNt ration  Lon^  Endured  Be- 
fore Remedy  Wuh  Found. 

Miss  Minerva  Remlnger,  Upper  Bern, 
Pa.,  writes:  "For  several  years  I  had 
nervous  prostration,  and  was  utterly 
wretched.  I  lived  on  bread  and  beef 
tea  because  my  stomach  would  not  re- 
tain anything  else.  I  took  many  rem- 
edies, but  obtained  no  relief  until  I 
took  Hood's  Sarsaparilla,  when  I  began 
to   gain   at   once.     Am  now   cured." 

Pure,  rich  blood  ryakes  good,  strong 
nerves,  and  this  is  why  Hood's  Sarsa- 
parilla, which  purifies  and  enriches  the 
blood,  cures  so  many  nervous  diseases.

centage  Is  principally  due  to  the  iron 
ore  property,  which  in  a  broad 
sense  must  be  considered  the  prop- 
erty of  the  state  at  large.  The  in- 
dividual property  ladders  of  St. 
Louis  county,  outside  of  the  mining 
property,  pay  no  larger  percentage 
than  people  pay  elsewhere.  Neither 
is  there  any  hostile  feeling  against 
the  settlers  of  that  county,  as  tlie 
Union  seems  to  believe.  On  the  con- 
trary they  as  well  as  the  people  of 
the  whole  northern  part  of  the  state 
have  the  best  wishes  and  the  good 
will  of  their  neighbors  in  the  other 
counties  in  everything  to  whioh 
they  are  justly  entitled,  including  a 
big  slice  of  the  1-miIl  road  tax.

VASSAR  QUARTET 
LOOKS  AFTER  BABY 

Students  Bring  Child  West 
to  Its  Mother  in  Min- 
neapolis. 

New  York,  Dec.  24. — A  story  of  a 
Christmas  baby,  mothered  by  four  Vas- 
sar  college  students  on  a  journey  of 
cheer  from  Poughkeepsie,  N.  Y.,  to 
Minneapolis,  Minn.,  is  told  by  Vassar 
undergraduates  arriving  at  their 
Brooklyn  homes  for  the  holiday  vaca- 
tion. 

The  baby,  a  year  old,  is  the  son  of  a 
poor  Minneapolis  woman,  phe  wanted 
the  child  as  a  Christmas  gift  from  a 
Brooklyn  charitable  organization  in 
whose  care  she  left  it  six  months  ago. 
Officers  of  the  association  wrote  to  the 
Christian  association  of  Vassar,  a  stu- 
dent philanthropical  organization,  ask- 
ing if  some  students  living  In  Minne- 
apolis would  take  the  child  west,  and

three  other  students,  one  of  whom  lives 
in    Minneapolis,     volunteered. 

WHAT  EMOLUMENTS  ARE. 

Supreme  Court  Says  Horse  Feed  and 
Servants  Are  Included. 

Washington,  Dec.  24 — 'Emoluments" 
or  allowances  for  army  officers  in- 
clude forage  for  riding  and  carriage 
horses  and  the  hire  of  household  serv- 
ants, according  to  a  decision  by  the 
supreme   court  of  the  United   States. 

The  decision  was  announced  in  the 
suit  of  a  Mis.  Sarah  K.  McLean,  widow 
of  Nathaniel  H.  McLean  of  Cincin- 
nati, Ohio,  who.  resigned  from  the 
army  in    1864    to  be    reinstated  in   li-75. 

In  1905  congress  pas.sed  an  act  giv- 
ing him  the  pay  and  all  the  "emolu- 
ments" of  a  major  during  the  years 
he  was  out  of  the  army.  Mrs.  Mc- 
Lean sued  the  government  because  the 
comptroller  of  the  treasury  would  not 
allow  under  the  head  of  "emoluments,"' 
forage  for  two  horser,  usod  by  Maj. 
McLean  for  riding  and  drivinsr,  ri.nd 
pay  for  two  household  servants  hired 
during  those  years.  The  court  of 
<  laims  likewise  decided  agiinst  the 
claim,  but  the  supreme  court  held  that 
they    should    have    been    allowed.

SCORES  SEE  HOLDUP 

IN  BUFFALO  OFFICE. 

Buffalo,  N.  Y.,  Dec.  24.— Within  sight 
of  scores  of  people,  a  highwayman  late 
yesterday  afternoon  held  tip  two  men 
in  the  city  ticket  office  of  the  Grand 
Trunk  railway  and  succeeded  in  get- 
ting away  with  5327.  Joseph  E.  Ed-

PARTS  OF  PARIS'^ 

MORPHINE  MAD. 

Paris,  Dec.  24. — A  general  investiga- 
tion into  the  Illicit  sale  of  morphine  in 
Paris  will  be  made  as  a  result  of  the 
death  from  the  use  of  the  drug  of  R€it> 
Bichet,  a  young  man  recently  ap- 
pointed professor  of  French  in  the 
Royal  college  at  Budapest.  The  auth>n-- 
ities  are  convinced  that  an  aggressive 
campaign  must  be  waged  in  order  to 
combat  the  growing  craving  for  mor- 
phine in  Paris. 

The  vice  Is  said  to  be  at  its  ;^'orsi 
among  the  young  women  frequenters 
of  the  night  cafes  and  dance  halls  in 
the  Montmartre  district,  and  in  col- 
legiate circles  in  the  Latin  quarter. 
The  police  are  in  '  possession  of 
astounding  statistics  tr'ative  to  Ihe 
spread  of  the  morphine  liabit. 


TO  CUT  AWAY 
ROCKY  CLIFF 

Council  Acts  on  Petition  to 

Cut  Superior  Street 

Through. 

Will  Ask  Legislature  for  Au- 
thority to  Issue  $50,000 
in  Bonds. 


The  city  council  last  evening  passed 
a  resolution  directing  the  city  attor- 
ney to  prepare  a  bill  to  be  presented 
to  the  legislature  giving  the  city  of 
Duluth  authority  to  issue  not  to  ex- 
ceed |r.0,000  of  bonds  for  opening  Su- 
perior street  between  Eighth  aijd 
Fourteenth  avenues  west. 

The  resolution  was  passed  after  the 
council  had  received  a  lengthy  peti- 
tion asking  that  this  be  done.  Under 
it  the  bill  will  enable  the  city,  if  it  is 
passed,    to    operate    a     rock      crushing 

plant  and  take  such  other  steps  as 
may  be  necessary  to  open  the  thor- 
oughfare. 

The  petition  pointed  out  that  there 
is  now  but  a  single  street  for  the 
heavy  volume  of  traffic  which  passes 
westward  from  the  center  of  the  city. 
This  single  street  contains  double 
street  car  tracks,  water,  gas  and  sew- 
er pipes,  conduits  and  the  tunnel  of 
the  Soo  railroad.  If  any  of  them  go 
out  of  service  so  that  it  is  neoes.'^ary 
to  make  repairs  the  already  congested 
condition  of  the  traffic  becomes  much 
worse. 

A  ledge  of  rocks  at  each  end  of  Su- 
perior street  is  all  that  closes  the 
street.  Those  who  have  investigated 
the  matter  state  that  it  will  cost  not 
more  than  $50,000  to  remove  them  and 
improve  the  street.  The  petitioners  as- 
sert that  should  it  cost  $100,000  the 
work  should  be  done.  They  cite  a 
number  of  Instances  in  which  sim- 
ilar improvements  have  been  paid  for 
by   general  taxation. 

SCHOONER^SCREW  SAFE. 

Capt.  and  Men  of  the  Tiiton  Land  at 
Lunenburg. 

Lunenburg,  N.  S.,  Dec.  24. — Capt. 
Sprague  and  the  crew  of  the  American 
schooner  Henry  R.  Tllton  are  safe  in 
port  here.  They  arrived  on  the 
schooner  W.  M.  Zwicker,  which  picked 
them  up  last  Friday  night  after  their 
vessel  had  become  water-logged  in  a 
heavy  blow.  The  crew  of  the  Tiiton 
liad  been  lashed  to  the  masts  for  many 
hours  when  the  Zwicker,  bound  from 
City  Island,  N.  Y.,  for  this  port,  provi- 
dentially came  to  the  rescue. 

Boston  dispatches  Afonday  announced 
that  the  Tiiton,  abandoned  and  water- 
logged, had  been  towed  into  the  shel- 
ter of  Cape  Cod  by  the  steam  trawler 
Swell  and  that  fears  were  entertained 
for  the  safety  of  the  crew.

STEALING  RIDE 


Marquette   Man  Rides  on 

Tender  of  Locomotive 

Falling  to  Death. 

Marciuette,  Mich..  Dec.  24. —  (Special 
to  The  Herald.) — Hemming  Johnson, 
aged  29.  a  former  employe  of  the  Soutli 
.Shore  railway,  fell  under  the  wheels  of 
a  moving  freight  engine  on  the  south 

track  of  the  Third  street  railway  cross- 
ing and  was  almost  Instantly  killed. 
The  wheels  of  the  tender  and  locomo- 
tive passed  over  his  legs,  mangling 
ihem  horribly.  It  required  ten  min- 
utes to  extricate  his  body  from  its  po- 
sition between  the  snow  plow  and  the 
pilot  v.-heels  of  tlie  engine.  Before  this 
had  been  accomplished  he  had  passed 
away. 

No    One    Sav>-    HUn. 

Xeither  the  fla.gman  at  the  Baraga 
avenue  or  the  Spring  street  crossings 
saw  any  one  on  the  tender  when  the 
engine  passed  those  points,  and  neithei- 
the  engineer  nor  fireman  .saw  any  one 
along  the  right-ot-way.  It  is  sun-

SEES  HOLEJNJHE  LAW. 

Lawyer  Asks  Question    About  Com- 
mitments to  Jag  Farm. 

St.  Paul,  Minn..  Dec.  24.— (Special  to 
The  Herald.) — Discovery  of  a  "painful 
interim,"  as  provided  by  the  law  for 
commitment  of  patients  to  the  state 
'jag  farm."  has  been  made  by  a  county 
attorney.  The  statutes  say  that  after 
a  drunkard  has  been  sentenced  to  the 
farm  by  a  probate  judge,  permission 
to  send  the  inebriate  there  must  be 
obtained  from  the  state  board  of  con- 
trol  before   he   will   be   received. 

Question — "What  shall  be  done  with 
the  inebriate,  pending  the  notification 
from  tlie  board  of  control?  Shall  he  be 
put   in    jail?" 

The  question  was  put  up  to  the  at- 
torney general's  office  yesterday.  Fol- 
lowing is  the  repU-  made  by  Assist- 
ant  Attorney   General   Edgertbn: 

"The  issuance  of  the  warrant  is 
based  upon  the  assumption  that  it  is 
dangerous  for  the  patient  to  remain 
at  large.  The  placing  of  this  war- 
rant in  the  hands  of  an  officer  nec- 
essarilv  clothes  such  otTicer  with  the 
authority  to  exercise  reasonable  re- 
straint. During  the  time  the  court 
is  awaiting  the  notification  froni  the 
boar.l  of  conrol,  it  is  mv  opinion  tluit 
tlie  i)atient  should  not  be  confined  in

during  the  pendency  of  such  matter

mitted, such  person  may  be  restrained

PROPOSE  LAW  CHANGES. 

Wisconsin  Liquor  Dealers  Would  Pre- 
vent Brewery  Ownership  of  Saloons. 

Madison,  Wis..  Dec.  24. — The  State 
iletail  Liquor  Dealers'  Protective  as- 
sociation is  planning  new  legislation 
that  would  make  radical  changes  in 
their    bu.'^iness. 

A  new  law  making  it  a  misdemeanor 
for  a  brewer  or  wliolesaler  to  be  in- 
terested in  the  retail  trade  to  the  ex- 
tent of  holding  a  lease  on  a  build- 
ing used  for  retail  purposes  is  pro- 
posed. The  bill  also  would  limit  the 
number  of  saloons  to  one  to  every 
1,000  persons. 

Unscrupulous  dealers  who  throw 
discredit  on  the  entire  business  have 
made  such  legislation  necessary,  it 
was    said. 


DEADLY  GAME  TRAPS. 

Ironwood  Game  Warden  Comes  Across 
Some  Illegal  Contrivance. 

Ironwood,    ilich.,     Dec.     24. — (Special 

to  The  Herald.) — Deputy  Game  Wai-den 

Claude   Larson     has     returned     from  a 

trip    along    the   South      .Shore    railroad, 

north    of    this   city,    bringing    a    deadly 

contrivance  in  the  way  of  a  deer  trap. 

Many  of  these  traps  were  found  near 
Covington  In  Baraga  county,  and  the 
state  game  warden's  department  is 
putting  forth  every  effort  to  bring  to 
justice  the  setters  as  well  as  the 
makers   of  these  deadly  contrivances. 

The  trap  Is  composed  of  tv.o  pieces 
of  scythe  blades  hinged  at  one  end. 
A  very  heavy  wire  is  securely  fastened 
to  one  end  of  the  other  ends  of  the 
blade.  The  wire  loop  is  suspended  on 
a  deer  runway  and  if  an  animal  should 
get  into  the  snare  its  efforts  to  release 
itself  would  result  in  its  neck  being 
drawn  Into  the  deadly  scissors,  and  tho 
deer  would  be  decapitated.

All  you  have  to  do  is  to  ask  for  Schlitz 
in  Brown  Bottles. 

Sunlight  grows  hops,  but  spoils  the  beer. 

"Beer  acted  upon  by  light  soon  takes  up 
the  very  disagreeable,  so-called  *  light 
taste,'  and  also  a  repulsive,  skunk-like  odor," 

says  no  less  an  authority  than  the  Wahl-Henius  Institute 
of  Fcrmentology,  the  scientific  authorities  on 
the  subject.    "  Beer  so  affected,"  they  say,  "is 
offensive  to  the  palate  of  most  consumers." 

Light  starts  decay  even  in  pure  beer.  Dark  glass 
gives  the  best  protection  against  light.  The  Brown 
Bottle  protects  Schlitz  purity  from  the  brewery  to 
your  glass. 

Why  don't  you,  too,  drink  Schlitz?  More  and 
more  people  every  year  are  demanding  it. 

We  started  in  a  hut.  Today  our  agencies 
dot  the  earth.  Our  output  exceeds  a  million 
barrels  a  year.

Tile  l»ul!ni  Herald  accepts  adver- 
tising; iKiit?  ;  ts  with  the  distinct  guar- 
anty that  it  iKis  the  largest  circulation 
In    Minne.>ota   outside    the    Twin   Cities. 


FOR  EFFICIENT  CITY  GOVERNMENT. 

The  purpose — and  the  sole  purpose 
— of  the  i>lau  which  the  city  council 
last  cvcnins;  asked  the  finance  coni- 
nittte  t.«  invc-tiyate  is  to  provide  for 
the  city  commission  soon  to  be  elected 
a  tc  ■  \n  of  organization  of  the 

city  J,  i.cnt  that  shall  co-ordi- 
nate a!!  tic  ii'.uctions  of  the  city  gov- 
ernmeiu  in  a  plan  as  simple,  as  di- 
rect. a>  I  ;cal  and  as  efficient 
as  ii'.^c  ■.;it_\    I.  Ill  devise. 

Mauifv^tly.  s:;ch  work  requires  an 
expert—  ii  an  expert  in  some  single 
line  of  city  business,  not  a  collection 
of  experts  in  various  branches,  but  an 
expert  in  this  very  work  of  co-ordi- 
ratiuii  the  details  of  city  business  into 
a  harniouioiis  and  efficient  whole. 

If  there  ar  ■  -'.ich  experts — and  there 
are  niatsy  oi  llicm.  it  is  said — it  will 
pay  the  city  handsomely  to  employ 
one.  In  Dr.  B.  M.  Rastall,  secretary 
of  the  Huluth  industrial  commission, 
DuUttii  i.i-  an  expert  in  municipal  ef- 
ficiency, hnl  tnifortnnately  his  of- 
ficial duties  will  prevent  his  doing 
the  work.  The  finance  committee  of 
the  council  will  be  able  to  get  valuable 
advice  from  him,  however,  and  The 
Herald  sui^gests  that  the  committee 
ask  hi".i  t'>  give  such  information  as 
lie  may  wish  to  contribute  to  the 
cause  <>i  the  best  possible  city  gov- 
ernruon*    i.>r  Duluth. 

Duluth  has  the  best  city  charter  in 
the  liiited  States,  and  it  wants  the 
best  city  l;  ivernment.  The  commis- 
sion, when  elected,  if  it  is  given  the 
advai.tage  of  an  expert's  investigation 
and  -' -;>-;>-• -.tii>ns.  will  be  able  to  create 
the  best  city  government  in  the 
country;  and  The  Herald  hopes  to 
see  that  not  only  because  it  will  give 
DdUtth  groat  direct  benefits,  but  be- 
cause it  will  insure  that  hereafter,  in- 
stead of  the  "Galveston  plan"  or  the 
*'Dcs  Moines"  plan,  people  will  talk 
about  the  "Duluth  plan."  There  will 
be  an  incalculable  advertising  value  in 
possessing  a  city  government  which 
city  governments  to  be  formed  in  the 
future  will  make  their  model. 

The  matter  is  in  the  hands  of  Alder- 
men Jordan,  Gibson  and  Makowski, 
the  mcr.bcrs  of  the  finance  committee 
of  the  coin!nr»n  council.  They  have 
an  opp  «;  t  -'.iity  to  be  of  enormous 
service  to  the  city,  and  The  Herald 
wishes  them  success  in  the  enterprise 
which  tiie  council  has  committed  to 
them.

ABOUT  DULUTH. 

Th.e  New  York  Press  has  bee*i  try- 
ing, in  a  mild  and  courteous  way,  to 
have  a  little  fun  with  Duluth. 

In    a    recent    issue    it   had   a    piece 

about  til  is  city,  which  follows: 

Duluth  is  tlie  queerest  city  In 
America.  Some  one  lias  described  It 
as  twenty  mile.s  long,  a  mile  wide 
anl  iialf  a  mile  high.  That  is  not 
a  !>ad  description.  The  hills  come 
dou-n  almost  to  the  sliores  of  Lake 
superior,  the  great  wnsalted  sea. 
The  Zenith  Ciiy,  made  famous  by 
Proctor  Knott's  speech,  stretches 
on  the  liiU.side  for  twenty  miles. 
It  is  the  greatest  outdoor  town  In 
the  world.  You  can  catch  -trout 
and  shoot  bear,  moose  and  deer 
witiiin  tlie  limits  of  the  city.  One 
fall  recently  after  a  forest  fire 
thirty  black  bears  were  killed 
within  the  city  limits.  The  gii-ls  and 
boys  enjoy  themselves  in  winter  by 
traveling  about  on  skis.  They  go 
ten  or  fifteen  miles  into  tiie  coun- 
try and  then  ski  back.  Winter 
camp  tires  are  as  common  as 
bridge   parties  in    the   East. 

We  cannot  quarrel  with  the  spirit 
of  these  comments,  though  we  may 
with  some  of  the  statistics.  W'e  are 
used  to  .|he  ancient  joke  about  Du- 
luth being  so  many  miles  long,  so 
few  miles  wide,  and  so  many  miles 
high.  It's  a  li'uel,  of  course;  but  it's  a 
joke  we  laugh  at  when  we  make  it, 
so  we  must  laugh  when  others  make 
it.  W'e  may  be  glad  that  the  Press 
did  not  repeat  those  other  old  jokes 
about  the  fellow  who  said  the  coldest 
winter  he  ever  experienced  was  a 
summer  in  Duluth,  and  the  other  fel- 
low who  said  that  Duluth  had  three 
seasons — July,  August  and  winter. 

The  joke  about  the  wild  life  in  the 
city  limits  i§  newer,  but  rather  thread- 
bare. Because  a  bewildered  bear  or 
two  happened  to  wander  into  the  city 
one  time,  and  an  insane  dear  was

HERE  burns  a  star  o'er  Bethlehem  town- 
See,   O  my   eyes! 
And  gloriously  it   beameth  down 
Upon  a  virgin  mother  meek 
And   Him   whom   solemn   Magi   seek. 
Burn  on,  O  star!  and  be  the  light 
To  guide  us  all  to  Him  this  night  1

The  angels  walk  in  Bethlehem  town — 

Hush,  O  my  heart! 
The  angels  come  and  bring  a  crown 
To  him,   our-  Saviour  and  our  King; 
And  sweetly  all  this  night  they  sing. 
Sing  on  in  rapturous  angel  tluong, 
That  we  may  learn  that  heavenly  songi 

N^ear  Bethlehem  town  there  blooms  a  tree — • 

O   heart,   beat   low! 
And  it  shall  stand  on  Calvary! 
But  from  the  shade  thereof  we  turn 
Unto  the  star  that  still  shall  burn 
AVhen  Christ  is  dead  and  risen  again 
To  mind  us  that  He  died  for  men. 

There  is  a  cry  in  Bethlehem  town — 

Hark.  O  my  soul! 
'Tis  of  the  Babe  that  wears  the  crown. 
It  telleth  us  that  man  is  free — 
That  He  redeemeth  all  and  me! 
The  night  is  sped — behold  the  morn! 
Sing,  O  my  soul;  the  Christ  is  boriu 


world.  But  even  here  a  stranger  from 
Altruria  might  get  the  notion  from 
what  the  Press  says  that  it  is  an  out- 
door town  only  in  the  winter.  It's 
an  outdoor  town  the  year  around,  and 
csp»ecially  in  the  summer  when  cool, 
perfect  daj's  follow  cool,  perfect 
nights,  when  the  clean,  clear,  fresh 
air  cures  hay  fever,  asthma,  corns, 
bunions  and  warts,  and  when  you  can 
work  or  play  at  your  highest  pitch 
while  toiling  millions  melt  in  the  heat 
of  other  places. 

Duluth  IS  the  greatest  outdoor 
town  in  the  world.  There  is  still 
more  outdoors  here  than  there  is 
anywhere  else  on  earth,  and  it's  the 
very  finest  outdoors  you  ever  ex- 
perienced. Having  observed  Duluth 
as  an  outdoor  town  in  winter,  we 
hope  the  Press  man  will  come  here 
some  time  and  observe  Duluth  as  an 
outdoor  town  in  summer.  Then  he 
\V'ILL  have  something  to  write  about. 


That  man  who  drove  off  th  ;  pack  of 
wolves  with  some  lighted  cjgars  gave 
undeniable  support  to  the  timehonored 
stories  about  the  Christmas  smudges. 


THE  HEART  OF  THE  ISSUES. 

In  his  splendid  address  given  upon 
his  return  from  Bermuda,  Governor 
Wilson  put  in  a  few  words  the  hope 
and  aspiration  that  animate  those  who 
are  working  and  fighting  k>r  better 
things  in  the  nation: 

Make  prosperity  accessible  to  the 
great  b.ulk  of  the  people,  and  a 
new  nation  will  seem  to  rise  up 
under  vour  wand  and  it  will  have  a 
great  creative  ze.st  that  can  come 
from  the  univers^al  liope  of  the 
people  and  from  nothing  else.  As 
long  as  heads  are  bowed  this  mar- 
vel cannot  be  wrought.  The  vi-sion 
must  be  made  near  enough  to  seem 
possible  of  achievement. 

This  nation  too  long  was  con- 
tented with  mere  bulk  prosperity. 
Now  it  is  now  longer  contented  with 
bulk,  but  demands  the  prosperity  of 
all.  Misleading  statistics  showing  a 
huge  bulk  of  wealth,  with  formidable 
averages  arrived  at  by  dividing  the 
total  by  the  number  of  people,  have 
fooled  us  long  enough.  Today  the 
people  are  realizing  that  there  is  no 
real  prosperity  where  one  per  cent 
owns  ninety  per  cent  of  the  wealth. 

"Make  prosperity  accessible  to  the 
great  bulk  of  the  people"  is  the  slogan 
of  the  new  and  peaceful  revolution 
that  is  transforming  the  national  life 
— and  Woodrow  Wilson  is  its  spokes- 
man and  leader. 


tail  of  its  specifications,  The  Herald 
is  inclined  to  the  belief  that  eight  oer 
cent  of  the  voters  should  be  required 
to  invoke  the  referendum,  that  ten  per 
cent  should  bo  able  to  invoke  the  ini- 
tiative, that  constitutional  amendments 
at  least  should  not  be  adopted  except 
by  a  majority  of  those  voting  AT 
THE  ELECTION',  that  possibly  it 
would  be  better  to  require  a  majority 
of  those  voting  at  the  election  in  all 
cases,  instead  of  a  mere  majority  of 
those  voting  on  the  propositions,  that 
petitions  should  have  a  certain  pro- 
portion of  their  signers  in  each  of 
ten  or  twelve  counties,  and  that  there 
should  be  no  referendum  by  legisla- 
tive bodies.  On  the  last  point  we  are 
quite  clear,  for  the  provision  in  many 
direct  legislation  laws  allowing  the 
legislature  to  refer  measures  to  the 
people,  in  practice  simply  means  giv- 
ing the  lawmakers  a  chance  to  evade 
responsibility  on  ticklish  issues. 

And  of  course  these  measures 
should  be  accompanied  by  the  recall, 
with  workable  percentages — say  ten 
per  cent  in  the  state  at  large,  fifteen 
per  cent  in  congressional  districts  and 
twenty-five  per  cent  in  smaller  units. 


iConsidering  that  so  many  people 
claim  baseball  is  scientific,  it's  re- 
markable that  Chance  cuts  such  a 
figure   in    it   even    out   of  season.

HIRING  EXPERTS.

DIRECT  LEGISLATION. 

One  of  the  first  great  duties  of  the 
Minnesota  legislature  at  its  coming 
session,  if  not  THE  FIRST  great 
duty,  is  to  prepare  and  submit  to  the 
voters  a  proposed  constitutional 
amendment  providing  for  direct  legis- 
lation. 

There  is  no  question  that  this  will 
be  brought  up,  and  there  is  little  ques- 
tion that  action  will  be  taken — none 
whatever  if  everybody  concerned 
sees  certain  things  clearly  and  acts 
accordingly. 

Two  of  the  most  important  things 
to  be  remembered  are  these: 

First — That  those  who  propose  too 
high  percentages  on  the  petitions  in- 
voking either  the  initiative  or  the  ref- 
erendum, or  who  propose  amend- 
ments making  them  or  either  of  them 
practically  unworkable,  arc  enemies 
of  direct  legislation,  whatever  their 
protests  to  the  contrar)'. 

Second  —  That  those  who  propose 
too  low  percentages,  or  a  system  too 
easily  invoked,  are  mistaken  friends 
of  direct  legislation  whose  efforts,  if 
successful,  would  almost  certainly 
bring  these  tools  of  democracy  into 
undeserved  reproach. 

Without  being  wedded  to  any  de- 


To   the   Editor  of   The   Herald: 

Now  that  the  effects  of  the  inebriety 
caused  by  the  satisfying  realization  of 
having  secured  a  new  charter  have,  in 
a  measure,  worn  off,  and  we  have  com- 
pleted our  "fussing"  about  Christmas, 
so  that  we  can  calmly  sit  down  and 
think  for  a  few  moments  in  a  sane 
condition  of  mind,  the  return  of  good 
sense  is  apparent  and  I  wisli  to  ex- 
press my  approval  of  the  action  of  tlie 
city  council  in  rejecting  the  efforts 
made  to  anticipate  the  work  of  the 
commissioners  by  providing  for  the 
hiring  of  experts  to  formulate  plans 
and  specifications  for  the  government 
of  those  commissioners  wliom  we  are 
going  to  elect  soon.  I  am  also  glad  to 
note  that  several  of  the  present  city 
officials  have  expressed  tliemselves  as 
being  unable  to  see  the  use  of  such 
experts  at  this  time. 

In  my  opinion  it  would  not  only  be 
a  useless  expenditure  of  money,  but 
would  be  liarmful  in  its  results.  Let 
us  consider,  for  a  few  moments:  The 
present  city  charter,  which  has  been 
so  generally  execrated  and  criticized, 
is  the  outgrowth  of  civic  conditions 
following  the  Duluth  real  estate  boom; 
bj"  the  city  cliarter  which  preceded  tliis 
present  cliarter  some  provisions  made 
it  possible .  for  the  city  council  to  run 
in  debt,  and  in  conformity  with  the 
demands  of  owners  and  agents  of  real 
estate  elaborate  plans  were  made  to 
build  up  the  city  beyond  Its  needs  and 
pile  up  an  indebtedness,  and  it  was  so 
done;  but  when  the  inevitable  battom 
fell  out  the  instigators  ducked  and  left 
the  city  council  to  take  the  blame  and 
stand  up  to  the  mark.  To  prevent  a 
recurrence  of  this  condition  the  cash 
basis  system  was  Inaugurated  througii 
the  present  charter,  but  under  the  im- 
pression that  no  matter  who  was 
elected  they  would  be  dishonest.  We, 
Us  &  Co.,  the  people  of  Duluth,  pro- 
ceeded to  tie  up  the  liands  of  tlie  offi- 
cials we  were  going  to  elect  and  did  it 
so  effectually  that  we  tied  up  the 
whole  machiner.e.  denied  the  e.xercise 
of  indivilual  initiative,  made  it  so  that 
the  most  capable  man  in  the  world 
could  be  no  more  useful  than  a  stupid 
one,  and  have  amused  ourselves  since 
the  adoption  of  this  present  city  cliar- 
ter in  damning  the  board  of  public 
works  for  doing  wliat  ^^e  insist  they 
shall  do  and  for  not  doing  what  we 
have  insisted  they  cannot  do.  As  the 
years  rolled  around  we,  the  same  Us 
&  Co.,  found  out  that  tlie  city  gov- 
ernment was  a  purely  business  affair, 
and,  to  be  successful,  must  be  run  un- 
der modern  business  rules  which  have 
been  proven  eminently  satisfactory  in 
other  business  enterprises,  chief 
amongst  which  essentials  is  the  plac- 
ing of  the  responsibility  where  it)  can 
be  reached  easily;  secondl^',  hfrlng' 
competent  men,  payjrng;  them  a  proper 
salary,  and  giving  them  the  fullest 
opportunity    to   m3k«-  good. 

This,  withfn  the  state  laws  and  what 


we  believe  |^  b^  are  the  main  essen- 
tials and  desiderata  of  civic  govern- 
ment, is  contained  in  the  new  city 
charter,  but  we  do  not  seem  to  be  will- 
ing to  have  the  good  features  taken 
advantage  of;  we  have  already  lost 
lonfidence  in  oiir.selves  that  we  will 
elect  tlie  proper  kind  of  officials,  (in 
my  opinion  the  maker,  or  the  marrer 
at  tlie  whole  reform),  and  we  want  to 
forestall  an>»  action  on  the  part  of 
those  unknown  men  by  tlelng  them  up 
through  the  opinions  of  some  the- 
oretical dabbler  in  civic  affairs  with 
his  experience  either  from  some  col- 
lege, or  frokpi  some  other  city  whose 
needs  are  not  at  all  similar  to  our  own. 

Why  not  proceed  along  sane  lines, 
step  by  step;  the  next  tiling  is  elect 
your  commissioners;  let  them  be  un- 
manaeled,  unprejudiced,  either  by  East 
end,  West  end,  north  or  south  inter- 
ests, or  by  any  racial  or  social  claim, 
the  main  qualifications  being  an  hon- 
est, broad-minded,  capable,  experi- 
enced, safe,  American  citizen  of  Du- 
luth. Let  them  take  their  seats  and 
study  the  situation.  If  they  want  as- 
sistance they  will  have  sense  enough 
to  get  some  person  who  will  be  of 
some  real  value  to  the  city;  give  the 
commission  a  cliance;  it  will  talie  time, 
but  city  building  is  a  big  undertaking. 
Yours,  T.  W.  HUGO. 

Duluth,  Dec.   2«. 


Mr.  Hugo  seems  to  mistake  the  pur- 
pose of  the  plan  to  provide  an  expert 
organization  of  the  city  government 
for  the  guidance  of  the  city  commis- 
sioners. Nobody  proposes  to  "tie  them 
up"  and  they  can't  be  tied  up.  No- 
body proposes  employing  a  "theoret- 
ical dabbler,"  but  an  expert — and  the 
test  of  an  expert  is  practicality.  Mr. 
Hugo  is  an  expert  In  engines — would 
he  care  to  be  called  a  "theoretical 
dabbler"?  The  plan  is  to  make  a  sur- 
vey of  the  various  branches  of  city 
business  and  to  weld  them  into  a  com- 
pact, simple,  efficient  and  economical 
system.  The  cammlssioners  would  not 
be  bound  'to  actSept  the  plan  offered 
them,  but  they  could  accept  the  infor- 
mation contained  in  it,  adopt  the  pro- 
posed plan  as  >  working  basis,  and 
improve  upoa  it-  as  tliey  learned  how 
to  improve  it.  If  an  entirely  new 
managing  t^rce  ^were  to  be  put  in 
charge  of  a  reconstructed  private  busi- 
ness capitalized  at  $40,000,000,  and  if 
results  were  .to  b«  expected  from  it  at 
once,  wouldn't  it  be  a  wise  thing  for 
the  owners  of  thkt  business  to  hire  an 
expert  in  business  efficiency  to  pro- 
vide for  their  -  g^uidance  a  tentative 
working  plan  of  organization?  Would 
they,  if  it  were  a  private  business,  not 
do  this  as  a:  matter  of  course?  And 
shall  public  ^u&iness  be  managed  less 
wisely?— The   Editor.

Duluth  I»  Awake. 

Elk  River  ytar-News:  Duluth  has 
adopted  the  commission  form  of  gov- 
ernment which  is  represented  to  be  the

litical body  is  subject  to.  Anyway, 
Duluth  is  awake  to  its  opportunities. 


Germany  without  Christmas — or  bet- 
ter— Cliristmas  without  Germany!  For 
me  the  one  state  Is  as  unthinkable  as 
tile  other.  After  comparing  my  ex- 
periences, I  can  but  come  to  the  con- 
clusion that  there  is  no  country  in  the 
\\'ide  world  where  Christmas  flourishes 
with  so  much  of  its  old  truth,  so  much 
of  its  own  true  feeling — in  fact,  where 
Christmas  Is  so  intensely  "Christmasy" 
as  In  the  Fatherland.  I  do  not  want 
to  hurt  anybody's  feelings  with  this 
statement,  and  I  must  admit  that  my 
experience  is  not  very  wide.  It  extends 
only  over  England,  France,  Belgium 
and  Italy,  and  I  have  no  doubt  that, 
for  instance,  the  Yankees  make  the 
season  an  occasion  for  great  magnifi- 
cence, the  Russians  for  pomp  and  cene- 
monial,  and  so  throughout  the  w^hole 
Christian  world,  each  land  imprinting 
its  own  national  characteristics  upon 
the  festival. 

I  always  think  of  the  Christmas 
spirit  as  a  little  child,  who  would  be 
very  happy  to  sing  carols  beside  a  tiny 
shrub  In  some  poor  German  garret,  but 
would  shrink  back  involuntarily  from 
the  offer  of  gems  and  rich  Incense. 
And  it  Is  that  childish,  open-hearted 
simplicity  which,  so  it  seems  to  me, 
makes  Christmas  essentially  German, 
or  at  any  rate  explains  why  it  is  that 
nowhere  else  In  the  world  does  It  find 
so  pure  an  expression.  The  German  is 
himself  simple,  warm-hearted,  unpre- 
tentious, with  something  at  tlie  bottom 
of  him  which  is  childlike  In  the  best 
sense.  There  are  fewer  problems  in 
his  character;  fewer  dark,  mysterious 
places;  fewer  Machiavellian  twists  and 
turnings;  his  heart  is  easily  stirred, 
easily  moved  to  respond  to  the  touch  of, 
all  tliat  is  sincerely,  truly  human. 
"With  such  a  man  the  "Chrlstkind"  can 
be  itself  without  make-believe  and 
artifice — It  can  display  its  humblest 
attributes,  which  are  its  noblest,  and 
know  that  he  will  understand,  that  he 
will  treasure  it  the  nxore  because  it 
was  born  in  a  poor  manger,  and  car- 
ries no  richer  gift  in  its  feeble  liands 
than    an    all-embracing    love. 

Y'es,  all  that  is  something  for  the 
German  "Gemut!'  It  suits  the  German 
a.s  well  as  a  play  suits  an  actor  for 
whose  character  and  temperament  it 
has  been  especially  written.  He  revels 
in  it,  and  I  really  believe  that  the  Ger- 
man atheist  "understands"  the  spirit  of 
Christmas  better  than  hundreds  of 
good  Christians  from  other  lands.  Per- 
liaps  the  atmosphere  helps.  Perhaps 
the  crisp  north  winds  blowing  over  the 
Black  Forest,  where  the  fir  tree  bears 
its  burden  of  virgin  snoW,  waiting  for 
the  hour  when  It  shall  be  called  thence 
to  decorate  some  human  home,  carries 
with  It  a  mysterious  perfume,  a  mys- 
terious something  which  I  cannot  de- 
scribe, but  which  I  feel  and  under- 
stand. Perhaps  for  the  knowledge  that 
all  those  around  me  feel  it  and  under, 
stand  it  as  I  do  makes  its  power  all 
the  greater.  It  seems  to  bring  us  all, 
rich  and  poor,  friend  and  foe,  into  a 
wonderful  communion  wliich  we  can- 
not and  will  not  resist.

A  Scarce  Article. 

Princeton  Union:  The  Duluth  Her- 
ald tells  us  that  "there  are  thirty-one 
colleges  in  the  country  offering  courses

reason  is  that  journalists  are  born,  not 
made. 


Convention  Im  Needed. 

Luverne  Journal:  Some  weeks  ago 
the  Journal  made  the  assertion  that 
Minnesota  needed  a  constitutional  con- 
vention. The  Duluth  Herald  has  taken 
up  the  matter  and  urges  that  the  leg- 
islature pass  a  law  calling  such  a 
convention.  The  old  Constitution  has 
served  very  well,  but  it  has  been 
amended  over  and  over  and  now  re- 
sembles a  crazy  quilt  more  than  a 
document  containing  the  fundamental 
law  of-  the  state,  ^\lllle  It  would  be 
some  expense  to  have  a  constitutional 
convention,  in  the  long  run  it  would 
pay.  In  the  first  place  the  new  Con- 
stitution would  be  likelj'  to  contain 
most  of  the  progressive  fundamentals 
that  we  would  doubtless  otherwise 
have  to  wait  years  to  get  by  the 
"amendment  route";  and  in  the  second 
place  it  would  not  be  necessary  to 
amend  the  Constitution  for  years  to 
come,  and  thus  the  tremendous  ex- 
pense of  submitting  amendments  every 
two  years  would-be  saved.  Let  us 
have  a  constittttlodjal  convention.

From  "The  feuslness  of  Being  a 
Woman,"  by  Ida  3*.  Tarbell:  There  is 
perhaps  no  more  general  weakness  in 
the  average  American  family  than 
glumness:  The  silent  reading  father, 
the  worried,  watchhil  mother,  the  sur- 
ly boy,  the  fredful  k^vl,  these  are  char- 
acters typical  kn  both  town  and  coun- 
try. 

In  onp  of  Mrs.  Daskom  Baqon,'s  liycly 
i»Xe!0.  "ArdeUa  in  Arcadia."  the  little 
■\  heroine  is  trai\splaiited  from  a  lively, 
chattering,  sweltering  New  York  street 
to  the  maddening  silence  of  an  over- 
worked farmer's  table.  She  stands  it 
as  long  as  the  can.  then  cries  out,  "For

Never  a  Friend  to  Spare 

I  have  friends  in  the  North,  friends  in 
the    East, 
Friends  in  the  South  and  West, 
And  I  call  them  all  to  my  heart's  glad 
feast. 
For   I   love   each    one    the    best; 
And  this  I  know  full  well: 

That  though  in  the  hearts  of  many  I 
share 
To  the  very  last  I  will  hold  them  fast. 
For    I    haven't   a    friend    to    spare,    not 
one. 
No,   never   a   friend   to   spare. 

When   the   stars   shine   out   at   night, 

I   love   to   drift   in  a  dreamlike   spell 
And  think   that   tlieir  lamps   hang  just 
above 
The  hearts  I  love  so  well. 
And    never   a    sky    but   'neath    It   I 
Can    think    of    a    loved   one    there, 
For  each   glad  star  points   where   they 

are, 
But    I    haven't    a    friend   to    spare,    not 
one, 
No,   nevej-   a   friend    to    spare. 

C>h,     you    of    the    far,     broad    Western 
plain. 
Or  you   of  the  Eastern   shore, 
I  call  you  into  my  life  again. 

And  I  hear  your  words  once  more. 
And  though  I  stray  in  a  stranger  way. 
It   counts   not   when   nor   where, 
I'ou  shall  walk  with  me 
To  that  silent  sea, 
For   I    haven't   a   friend    to    spare,    not 
one. 
No,   never   a  friend  to   spare.

A  Converted  Bull  Moose 


New  Y'ork  Press  (Roosevelt):  The 
Woodrow  Wilson  who  has  stood  up  to 
shake  his  fist  in  the  face  of  stock 
market  manipulators  is  not  the  Wood- 
row  Wilson  we  thought  he  was  in  the 
campaign. 

He  is  a  bigger  and  a  better  Wood- 
row  Wilson  than  the  American  people 
knew  in  the  contest  for  the  presi- 
denc.v.  He  may  even  be  a  bigger  and 
a  better  Woodrow  Wilson  than  he 
imagined  himself  to  be.  A  man's  cour- 
age, suddenly  demonstrated  in  trying 
emergencies,  often  astonishes  himself 
more  tlian  anyone  else;  he  shows  him- 
self qualities  that  were  never  revealed 
to  his  own  consciousness. 

We  saw  Mr.  Wilson  in  the  presiden- 
tial battle,  as  a  timid  man.  avoiding 
some  issues,  skimming  on  the  surface 
of  others,  and  giving  quarter  to  some 
raen  worse  than  a  few  he  put  to  the 
sword. 

We  feared  that  he  was  not  a  fighter. 

We  never  quite  trusted  in  his  stamina 

or  in  his  consistency. 

•      •      • 

If  the  majority  of  the  American  peo- 
ple were  not  with  Mr.  XN'ilson  on  elec- 
tion day,  the  vast  majority  will  follow 
him  on  any  issue  like  the  one  of  let- 
ting unofficial  power  intimidate  presi- 
dents. 

The  whole  American  people  will  be 
at  his  back  when  he  takes  a  stand  like 
this.  No  question  of  partisanship  can 
come  In  here.  After  all,  what  the  na- 
tion wants  is  truly  progressive  govern- 
ment, and  it  will  be  glad  to  get  it  from 
any  party  or  any  combination  of  par- 
ties through  which  progressive  govern- 
ment results. 

In  carrying  out  progressive  meas- 
ures Mr.  Wilson  needs  the  sentiment 
of  the  whole  country  solidly  behind 
him.  for  he  will  have  to  fight  the  big 
powers  of  his  own  party  on  some  is- 
sues. He  is  going  about  getting  the 
people  hehSnd  him  in  a  way  that  will 
L^>lp  him  to  ^win.  Y'et,  win  or  lose,  if 
he  follows  the  line  indicated  -by  his 
address  to  the  panic-makers  he  will 
leave  a  record  of  which  the  American 
people   will   be   proud.

Chicago  Tribune:  "Boteb.v,  do  you 
see  that  bright  star  overhead,  at  the 
top  of  the  big  cross?" 

"Yes." 

"Well,  that's  Deneb.  It  Is  nearly

Washington,  Dec.  24. —  (Special  to  The 
Herald.) — .Seated  side  by  side  among 
the  dinner  guests  of  a  fashionable  hos- 
tess the  other  evening  were  Senator 
Boies  Penrose  and  a  pretty  little  twen- 
ty-year-old "flappe:-"  from  a  near-by 
finishing    school. 

Cousin  Penrose  Is  tall,  huge  and 
practical.  His  bulk  completely  fills 
the  average  taxicab.  And  he  can  talk 
politics  and  slates  a.nd  methods  witb  a 
great  deal  of  savoir  falre.  But  when 
It  comes  to  scenting  one's  self  up  with 
white  lilac  and  rose  (in  equal  parts) 
and  doing  the  La  Grallienne  stuff,  and 
talking  the  society  language — round- 
ing out  his  conversation  with  such 
expressions  as  *How  attractive," 
"Charming,"  "How  jjerfectly  stunning," 
"Motoring,"  etc. — when  It  comes  to  that 
sort  of  thing  the  massive  Pennsy  sen- 
ator is  a   supreme   'i-ripple. 

So  that  Penrose  felt  himself  at  a 
conversational  loss.  Yet  he  recognized 
that  the  hostess  expected  him  to  talk 
to  the  attractive  little  thing  at  his  el- 
bow, and  not  to  sit  there  silently  like 
an  empty  plate.  He  began  to  grope 
blindly  for  something  that  the  debut- 
ante was  interested  in — something,  if 
possible,  that  he  cculd  discuss  intelli- 
gently. 

To  his  great  relle'.  he  early  stumbled 
on  the  fact  that  she  liked  horses — tf»at 
she  was  "fond  of  rahding,"  as  she  ex- 
pressed it — "rahdins"  being  finishing 
school   for  riding. 

Now,  horseback  riding  is  one  of  the 
best  things  Penrose  does,  and  they  soon 
made  considerable  conversational  head- 
way. Penro.se  talkel  entertainingly  of 
the  time  he  was  riding  out  In  Rock 
Creek  a  few  months  ago  and  his  horse 
took  fright  at  a  steam  roller.  The 
horse  plunged,  fell,  rolled  over  on  him, 
tramped  on  him  and  otherwise  en- 
deavored  to    show    him   his    finish. 

The  debutante  was  looking  across 
the  table  at  a  young  chap  who  used 
"corking"  and  "bully"  as  his  only  ad- 
jectives, and  missed  part  of  Penrose's 
narrative,  but  cau^rht  that  about  the 
steam    roller. 

"You  say  the  steam  roller  ran  over 
you?"  she  asked  wi'.h  the  utmost  inno- 

Penrose  gave  her  a  quick  glance,  for 
this   happened   not    long   after   election. 

"No-o,"  he  replied,  'not  that  time — 
not    till    some    months    later." 

•  •'     • 

Senator  Kirtland  I.  Perky,  appointed 
to  succeed  the  late  Senator  Heyburn, 
of  Idaho,  studied  hiw  in  the  office  of 
Mr.  Bill  Bryan  at  Lincoln  back  in  the 
days  when  Bryan  was  entirely  un- 
known and  half  of  his  mail  came  ad- 
dressed   ^s    O'Brien 

Perky  Is  an  agrei?able,  compact  man 
with  a  large  head  covered  with  a  heavy 
black  mane.  He  looks  too  stoutish 
for  any  exerci.se  more  strenuous  than 
brushing  his  teeth  of  a  morning — or 
croquet  at  the  outside,  but  the  funny 
thing  about  it  is  that  lie  can  play  a 
whirlwind  game  ol  lawn  tennis,  and 
can  step  right  out  on  short  notice  and 
kick  as  high  as  hi$    head. 

•  «•     * 

When  It  was  announced  that  Perky 
had  been  appointee  senator,  a  China- 
man he  knows  w<!ll  out  in  Boise, 
stopped  him  to  offer  "congratulations." 

"Y'ou  make  fine  councilman,"  said 
the    Chink. 

"But  it's  a  senator  I'm  to  be,"  ex- 
plained Perky;  "down  at  Washington, 
you     know." 

"Oh,"  says  the  Chink,  in  a  disappoint- 
ed tone,  "that  all;  me  thouglit  you  to 
be    city    councilman." 

•  •■     • 

Louis  Brownlow,  Washington  news- 
paper man,  paused  in  a  drug  store  in 
Greensboro,  N.  C,  not  so  long  ago,  to 
ask  for  a  match.  While  he  was  there 
a  young  colored  chap  came  running  in 
with  a  big-  gash  the  whole  length  of 
his  skull,  and  apparently  a  good  deal 
Qut  out  about  som«r  accident  that  had 
befallen-  him. 

"What's  happened  to  you?"  asked 
Brownlow,  excitedly-  but  sympathetic- 
ally. 

"A  friend  hit  m.?  with  a  hatchet," 
replied    the    bleeding    stranger. 

•  M  • 

William  Sulzor,  governor-elc»ct  of 
New  York,  has  only  a  moderate  sense 
of   humor. 

Whenever  the  members  of  the  for- 
eign affairs  committee,  of  wlilch  Sul- 
zer  has  been  chairman,  wish  to  kid 
him  a  little  they  refer  to  him  casually 
as  "our  distinguished  chairman,"  sev- 
eral times  in  succession — "as  our  dis- 
tinguished chairman  has  so  fittingly 
observed,"  "as  our  ilistinguished  chair- 
man   remarked   a    moment    ago,"    etc. 

And  the  only  noti'?e  Sulzer  ever  takes 
of  It  is  to  place  his  right  index  finger 
against  his  forehead,  in  a  statesman- 
like pose,  and  act  C3mpletely  immersed 
in  thought.

Senator  Norris  Brown  got  up  to 
speak  at  a  Taft  meeting  in  St.  Paul  a 
week  or  two  before  the  crash  came. 
The  only  available  hall  was  controlled, 
for  the  time  being,  by  an  animal  show. 
This  meeting  was  held  after  the  show 
was  over,  arwi  the  animal  cages  were 
pushed  back  to  the  rear  of  the  stage. 
Brown  was  in  the  nidst  of  his  remarks 
when  a  bear  set  u;)  a  howl.  It  gave 
Brown    his   chance. 

He  turned  and  frowned  at  the  bear, 
and  said: 

"Well,   well,   there's  Teddy.     And  it's 

the  most  logical  argument  I  ever  heard 

Teddy    make."

The  Bachelor's  Christmas 


7  wenty  Years  Ago 


rrom  Tbe  Herald  of  tbls  date.   1S91. 


•♦•The  Chapln-Wells  hardware  stor* 
on  Superior  street  near  the  corner  of 
Fifth  avenue  west  was  the  scene  yes- 
terday afternoon  of  the  biggest  fire 
that  has  occurred  In  Duluth  since  the 
burning  of  the  Grand  opera  house  in 
1889.  The  explosion  of  what  is  sup- 
posed to  have  been  gasoline  in  th« 
basement  is  thought  to  have  started 
the  Are,  and  it  spread  with  lightning- 
like rapidity  to  the  upper  stories.  The 
building,  like  all  wholesale  and  retail 
stores,  was  filled  with  combustibles  In 
the  shape  of  cartridges,  gasoline,  oIIb, 
etc.,  and  probably  some  small  lots  of 
powder.  Explosions'  were  numerous 
soon  after  the  fire  started,  and  one 
blew  Fireman  James  Dunbar,  who  wa» 
on  the  first  floor,  clear  through  a  win- 
dow into  the  street.  Several  other 
firemen  were  knocked  down  by  the 
force  of  the  explosion  and  Fire  Warden 
Pllmil  Applehagen  was  badly  bruised. 
As  soon  as  the  Are  got  fairly  well  Into 
the  shelves  of  the  store,  the  cartridges 
began  a  miniature  battle,  and  the  re- 
ports sounded  like  a  continued  roar 
of  musketry.  It  was  dangerous  on  ac- 
count of  the  flying  bullets  to  go  within 
100  feet  of  the  building,  but  the  fire- 
men gallantly  held  their  ground.  It 
was  impossible,  however,  to  save  the 
building,  which  was  known  as  the 
Fergusson  block.  The  old  part  of  the 
block  is  a  ruin  from  top  to  bottom,  and 
the  new  part  i.s  badly  damaged.  Sim- 
ilar damage  was  done  to  Hatley  & 
Hurveys  bowling  alley,  Schiirer-Hub- 
bard  cigar  store  and  various  offices. 
One  loss,  whicli  can  scarcely  be  re- 
placed, was  caused  by  the  total  de- 
struction of  maps,  profiles,  minutes, 
etc.,  of  the  Duluth,  Mi-ssabe  &  North- 
ern road.  The  Insurance  on  the  build- 
ing and  rents  aggregates  $85,000.  The 
losses  on  stock  are:  Chapin- Wells, 
$60,000:  Schiller-Hubbard,  $20,000;  Du- 
luth Herald,  $4,000;  W. '  E.  Wright. 
$3,000;  A.  S.  Wilson,  $500;  C.  E.  Lovett 
&  Co.,  $1,000;  Dr.  M.  B.  Cullum,  $2,700; 
the  Alhambra  bowling  alley.s,  $7,000; 
other  losses.  $26,800;  total,  $125,000;  in- 
surance, $69,250. 


♦••Secretary  Thomp.«on  of  the  Du- 
luth chamber  of  commerce  today  is- 
sued the  call  for  a  national  ship  canal 
convention  to  be  held  at  the  Arlington

(With   apologies   to  Rudyard  Kipling.) 

A  fool  there  wa.s  aid  he  made  his  lair 

(Even  as   you   and  I,) 
In  a  lonsome  den  by  his  warm  grate

(He  watched   the  flames  leap   higher 
and  higher) 
But  his  heart  was  sick  with   a   dumb 
desire. 
(Even  as  you  and  I.) 

And  the  Christmas  «;himes  in  the  belfry 
rang. 
(Peal   upon   peal    of   Joy!) 
And      the      cracklin?     flames      on      the 
hearthstone  sing 
(To  his  hungry  hoart  came  a  mighty 
pang) 
As  the  glowing  sparks  up  the  chimney 
sprang  • 

(Gemming  the  winter  sky). 

O,    If   the    fatherless.    Youth    could    re-

(Wiping  a  moistened  eye.) 
Away    from    the    torturing   thought   he 
flew. 
(Hasten,  the  last  i\eetlng  minutes  are 
few!) 
Crying  to  God  for  some  kindness,  to  do. 
(.Even  as  you  and  I.) 

A   child    he   fot^nd.  In   the   cold   winter 
night,  .... 

(Seeking  a  place  to  die) 
Naked  and  hungry,  a  pitiful  sprite. 
(The   bachelor   called   her  his   vision 
of  Liatht.) 
The  Star  of  the   Eiist  shone  never  so 
bright.

The   Saxon    Girdle   of    the   Earth. 

From  "The  Saxon  and  His  Empire," 
by  Homer  Lea:  The  Saxon  has  marked 
around  this  earth,  as  no  other  racej?e- 
fore  him,  the  scarlet  circle  of  his 
power.  This  thin,  red  Saxon  line,  so 
thin  with  his  numbers,  so  red  wittk  his 
blood,  was  made  possible  only  by  his 
heroism   and   has   racial    fealty. 

Where  this  line  has  not  gone,  man 
has  not  found.  It  has  crossed  every 
sea;  it  has  traversed  every  desert;  it 
has  sought  every  solitude;  it  has 
passed  through  swamps  where  only 
the  sacred  ibis  fishes;  over  sands  that 
have  never  been  moistened;  over  snows 
that  have  never  m«Ued.  "Fhere  has  been 
no  storm  it  has  not  encountered;  no 
pain  it  has  not  endured;  no  race  it 
has  not  fought  and  no  disease  it  has 
not  contented   with. 

This  Saxon  line  has  been  to  the 
eartli  a  girdle  heroic  and  tragic,  bind- 
ing within  itself  aU  the  old  and  an- 
cient places  of  th©  world.  It  has  been 
silent  in  its  duty.  Ignored  in  its 
achievement  and  scorned  in  its  devo- 
tion. Y'et  it  has  given  down  to  this 
now  neglectful  race  a  world  such  as 
mankind  has  never  known  before;  an 
empire  over  which  the  sun  and  stare 
shine  together  and  ■where  night  never 
falls  and  no  day  dawns.

ime  Music  Not  All  Bad — It 
Has  Its  Appeal. 

That  ragtime  jars  on  the  nerves  and 
irritates  the  brain  cells  Is  the  conten- 
tion of  Prof.  Ludwig  Brusmer,  of  Ber- 
lin. To  its  defense  among  others, 
leaps  T'hilip  Greel.v 
Ctapp,  instructor  of 
music  at  Harvard, 
who  believes  rag- 
time Is  maligned 
and  that  it  has 
rather  a  soothing 
than  an  Irritating 
effect  upon  the 
nerves.  "Ragtime  is 
a  form  of  music 
characteristic  of  the 
country  and  for  that 
reason  cannot  be 
overlooked  when 
.Vmerican  music  as 
a  whole  Is  being 
considered,"  declared  Mr.  Clapp,  and 
we  aro  agreed  that  It  does  have  its 
niche  and  that  some  of  it  is  worthy 
of  acclaim  and  to  be  classed  as  real 
music. 

As  Mr.  Clapp  says.  "Music  worthy  of 
the  name  isn't  likely  lo  wear  anyone 
out,  and  this  does  not  exclude  rag- 
time because  there  can  be  good  rag- 
time as  well  as  bad.  Not  all  classical 
music  is  good  or  even  nearly  so."  The 
true  music  lover  will  admit  beauty  and 
harmony  in  syncopation.  Only  the 
snob  in  music;  the  person  who  gauges 
his  appreciation  and  approval  on  what 
has  been  lauded  by  the  highest  author- 


ities, will  turn  up  his  nose  in  utter 
disdain  at  the  popular  American  rag- 
time. 

But  there  is  a  side  to  ragtime  as 
played  popularly  at  our  seashore  re- 
■sorts,  in  our  cafes  and  dance  halls,  our 
theaters  and  even  our  first-class  hotels 
that  grows  di.sagreeahly  on  the  nerves 
of  the  sen-sltive  person  of  American 
i>irth  and  breeding,  inured  to  all  the 
liurry  and  bustle  of  American  life  and 
living.  It       becomes       exasperating: 

makes  one  wish  oftentimes  that  he  or 
slie  need  never  be  obliged  to  listen  to 
it  again.  Doubtless  this  is  poor  rag- 
time, since  good  music 'of  any  de- 
.s>  rlption  ought  never  to  irritate  one 
but  good  or  bad.  I  have  known  not 
one  but  many  Americans  to  lose  pa- 
tience with  this  typieallv  American 
musical   product.     I   liave   myself. 

I  should  never  call  ragtime  soothing. 
It  is  exhilarating,  at  its  best.  Certain 
temperaments  might  never  experience 
anytliing  but  irritation  under  its  spell. 
And  a  person  who  had  never  heard 
anything  but  the  finest  classical  music- 
whose  appreciation  was  developed  ori 
that  basis,  would  find,  I  am  sure  in 
the  ragtime  of  our  pleasure  places 
much  to  annoy  liim  and  much  on 
w,liich  to  base  his  contention  that  a 
few  years  hence  we  should  all  be 
crazy  in  America  unless  we  changed 
the  nature  of  the  music  to  which  so 
many  of  us  eat  and  dance  and  sing 
and  listen  as  a  matter  of  course,  be- 
lieving ourselves  entertained.

The  city  council  last  evening  passed 
a  resolution  requesting  the  finance 
committee  of  that  body,  consisting  of 
Aldermen  Jt)rdan,  Gibson  and  Makow- 
ski,  to  investigate  the  advisability  of 
outlining  a  tentative  plan  relative  to 
the  division  of  the  duties  of  the  com- 
missioners under  the  new  plan  and 
other  changes  which  will  be  necessi- 
tated. The  committee  is  also  re- 
quested to  secure  data  from  other 
cities  approximately  the  size  of  Du- 
luth  whuh  have  tlie  commission  form 
of   government. 

Tne  resolution  passed  by  a  vote  of 
14  to  2,  Aldermen  Miller  and  Scott 
voting  against  It. 

When  it  was  presented  Alderman 
Curren  said  that  it  was  an  indirect 
way  of  getting  the  same  result  as 
\as  intended  in  the  resolution  voted 
down  last  week  providing  for  a  com- 
mittee to  investigate  the  advisability 
of  employing  an  expert.  He  stated 
that  he  would  not  oppose  it,  however. 
Alderman  Gibson  pointed  out  that 
the  resolution  did  not  necessitate  the 
expenditure  of  any  funds  and  ought 
to  be  passed  in  the  best  interests  of 
the  city. 

Enough  Kxpertii. 
Alderman  John  MacDonell  was  em- 
phatic in  the  declaration  that  there 
are  enough  experts  in  the  city  amply 
cEpable  of  handling  the  outlining  of 
any  tentative  plan.  He  declared  that 
the  present  council  or  any  one  else 
l.ad  not  tfie  right  to  dictate  to  the 
commissioners  to  be  elected  and  ad- 
vise them  as  to  what  they  should  do. 
"Leave  tliat  to  the  new  commissiou- 
ers,''    he   said.  ,^    ^^    ^    .        ,,, 

Alderman  Hogan  said  that  he  did 
not  see  anything  wrong  in  the  reso- 
lution but  that  he  agreed  that  the 
citv  lias  plenty  of  experts  without 
going  outside.  He  said  it  would  be 
all  right  to  investigate  the  situation 
as   provided   by   the   resolution. 

Alderman  MacDonell  again  took  the 
floor  and  reiterated  that  the  city  has 
capable  experts.  He  averred  that  City 
Treasurer  Voss.  Comptroller  McCor- 
mick,  City  Clerk  Palmer  or  Secretary 
Murchison  have  an  extensive  knowl- 
edge of  the  needs  of  Duluth.  "But  we 
ought  to  leave  it  to  the  new  comniis- 
sioncrs."  he  said.  -They  may  be  wiser 
than  we  are.  They  will  be  responsible; 
they  can  be  held  responsible.  Every 
one  of  them  will  be  under  |25,000  bonds 

each."

The  resolution  and  the  vote  was  as 
follows: 

"Resolved,     That    the    committee    on 
flnance    of    this    council    is    hereby    re 
quested    to    investigate    as    to    the

worn   out  and  Is  liable   to   break  down

the    downtown    section    ol    the    city. 

Attorney  Charles  U.  Baldwin,  at- 
torney for  Capt.  Sullivan  of  the  Board 
of  Trade  livery,  made  a  strong  plea 
to  the  alderman,  asking  them  not  to 
pas3  the  01  inance,  as  it  was  in  the 
interest  of  t-jvcral  individuals  and  di- 
rected against  Capt.  Sullivan  and  not 
in  the  general  interests  of  the  city. 
He  presented  a  letter  from  the  health 
department  in  which  the  health  com- 
missioner stated  that  the  stable  is  sani- 
ary,  although  complaints  have  been 
made  against  it  in  the  hot  weather. 

N.  J.  Upham  said  that  the  point  to 
be  considered  was  the  greatest  in- 
terest of  the  greatest  number.  He 
pointed  out  that  there  are  414  tenants 
of  adjacent  buildings  who  are  dis- 
comfited by  the  odors  arising  from 
the  stable,  as  well  as  the  1,000  mem- 
bers of  the  Commercial  club.  He  as- 
serted that  the  other  stables  which 
are  exempted  do  not  inconvenience 
nearly  so  large  a  number  of  people. 
He  denied  that  the  ordinance  was  in 
the    interest    of    individuals. 

Charles  A.  Duncan  stated  that  his 
building  had  beeh  erected  long  before 
the  stable  and  that  for  years  he  had 
been  a  silent  sufferer.  He  declared 
that  the  stable  is  a  positive  nuisance. 
He  said  that  it  will  not  be  a  difficult 
matter  for  Capt.  &illlvan  to  secure  an- 
other suitable  location  for  a  livery 
stable.- 

Alderman  Hicken  said  that  in  pre- 
senting the  ordinance  the  committee 
had  no  ulterior  motive;  that  the  com- 
mittee had  no  personal  considerations 
and  that  Its  position  throughout  had 
been  the  benefit  of  the  greatest  num- 
ber 

Aldermen  Curren,  Scott  and  Bernard 
said  that  there  can  be  no  question  but 
what  the  stable  is  a  nuisance  and 
ought  to  be  moved,  but  that  Capt.  Sul- 
livan should  be  given  ample  time  in 
which  to  secure  another  location.  Al- 
derman Curren  thought  it  should  be 
two  years,  but  Alderman  Scott's  reso- 
lution fixing  the  date  as  April  1,  1914, 
was   carried.  ^       x, 

"The  limits  fixed  by  the  ordinance 
arf^  Lake  avenue  to  Fifth  avenue  west 
and  Michigan  street  to  Second  street. 
Within  that  district  It  makes  It  un- 
lawful for  any  stable  to  be  erected 
within  150  feet  of  any  church,  school, 
club  or  public  building.  It  was  carried 
by  a  vote  of  11  to  5  after  the  amend- 
ment had  been  passed  providing  that 
it  shall  not  take  effect  until  April  1, 
191i.

VASSAR^IRLS^GET 
BABY  BACK  HOME 

St.  Paul  Mother   Receives 

Her  Boy  From  Miss 

Mary  Turner. 

St.  Paul,  Minn..  Dec,  24.— Some  moth- 
er in  a  humble  St.  Paul  home  la  oele- 
brnting  Christmas  one  day  early  with 
her  1-year-old  boy,  brought  all  the 
way  from  Krooklyn  by  tour  Vasaar 
girl.s,  according  to  Miss  Mary  Turner 
of  Minneapolis,  one  of  the  four  girls 
into  whose  care  the  child  was  en- 
trusted by  Brooklyn  Associated  Chari- 
ties officials.  Miss  Turner,  who  makes 
her  lionie  vyith  Mr.  and  Mrs.  A.  H. 
Poehler  here,  today  refused  to  disclose 
the  name  of  the  mother  to  whom  the 
child    was    brouglit. 

••Tliere  was  only  one  way  for  that 
baby  to  get  to  Its  mother,'"  said  Miss 
Turner,  -and  that  was  for  us  four  to 
bring  him.  The  little  boy  had  been  left 
with  the  Associated  Charities  by  her 
when  her  first  husband  died,  and  then 
she  came  West  and  secured  employ- 
ment In  St.  Paul.  Recently  she  married 
again  and  wanted  her  baby  back.  We 
four  girls  were  only  too  willing  to  act 
as  escorts.  Miss  Katherine  Lewis  of 
Springfield.  III.,  acted  as  leader,  and 
is  entitled   to  all   the  credit, 

•'The  other  three  girls  stopped  at 
Chicago  and  I  brought  the  baby  the 
rest  of  the  way  alone.  The  "chikl 
was  not  troublesome  at  all.  He  wanted 
to  sleep  all  the  time  when  he  wasn't 
eating,  but  when  he  happened  to  be 
awake  he  just  kept  cooing.  On  the 
trip  West  we  got  to  loving  him  so  it 
was  hard  to  give  him  up.  It  was  more 
than  worth  it.  too,  when  I  gave  the 
baby   to   the  mother."

Chicago,  Dec.  24.— Fashionable  sum- 
mer resorts  In  Illinois,  Wisconsin, 
Michigan  and  even  winter  resorts  In 
P'lorida,  Alabama  and  California,  are 
to  be  the  scenes  of  operations  of  a 
Chicago  negro  syndicate  under  the 
name  of  the  Lincoln  Athletic  and  So- 
cial  club. 

This  was  brought  out  today  by 
statements  made  by  those  interested 
in  the  sale  of  L.ake  Geneva,  Wis., 
property  which  It  was  reported.  Jack 
Johnson,  the  negro  pugilist,  had  pur- 
chased as  a  present  for  Lucile  Cameron 
Johnson,    his    wliite    wife. 

The  statements  were  made  toy  Jud- 
son  G,  Sherman,  who  •  sold  the  Lake 
Geneva  property  to  the  negro  syndi- 
cate, and  W.  E.  Harris  and  James  H. 
Porter  said  to  be  leading  spirits  in 
the  sclieme. 

To  get  the  property  wherever  it  can 
be  purchased  in  a  fashionable  district 
or  resort,  wliether  in  Lake  Geneva, 
>A  IS.,  or  Geneva,  Switzerland,  if  it  is 
popular  and  will  bring  reward,  is  the 
purpose  of  the  organization  according 
to  W,  H.  Harris. 

Object,  "to   Make  Money." 

"The  object  of  this  club  is  to  make 
money,"  said  Harris.  'We  intend  to 
buy  property  wherever  we  think  we 
can  make  money  out  of  it.  The  mem- 
bers of  the  club  are  all  negroes  of 
mean.-*,  and  have  capital  enough  to 
swing  almost  any  kind  of  a  real  estate 
deal. 

Judson  G.  Sherman  savs  his  nego- 
tiations for  the  sale  of  the  Lake  Ge- 
neva property  were  with  Attorney  W. 
G.    Anderson,    a    negro. 

"t  am  70  years  old  and  must  sell  my 
property,"  said  Mr.  Sherman.  "It  has 
been  on  the  market  some  time  and  1 
tried  to  sell  it  to  my  neighbors,  but 
could  not  come  to  terms.  I  gave  -An- 
derson an  option  which  has  not  ex- 
pired. 

"If  the  syndicate  desires  to  purchase 
under  the  option  I  will  sell,  as  I  can- 
not go  back  on  my  word." 

"If  you  are  approached  by  citizens 
with  a  similar  offer  for  the  property 
will  you  take  itT'  Mr.  Sherman  was 
asked. 

"Not  until  the  option  expires,"  he 
replied. 

L.lke  W'heatou  Affair. 
The  scandal  over  the  .sale  of  the 
Lake  Geneva  property  recalls  a  similar 
incident  which  occurred  at  Wheaton, 
an  exclusive  suburb  of  Chicago  several 
years  ago.  At  that  time  it  was  re- 
ported that  a  syndicate  of  negroes  had 
purchased  a  summer  home  in  Wheaton 
and  that  it  was  to  be  offered  to  the 
late  "Pony"  Moore,  negro  saloonkeep- 
er and  gambler.  The  syndicate  is  said 
to  have  sold  out  to  adjacent  property 
owners    at    a    handsome    profit.

ararquette,  Mich.,  Dec.  24. — (,Speclal 
to  The  Herald.) — Former  Cashier  Elven 
T.  Larson,  one  of  the  wreckers  of  the 
First  National  bank  at  Ironwood  some 
four  years  ago,  who  was  convicted  in 
Federal  court  here  on  a  charge  of  vio- 
lating the  banking  laws,  after  a  pro- 
longed and  hard-fought  trial,  has  been 
released  on  parole  from  the  Detroit 
house  of  correction,  to  which  he  was 
sentenced  for  a  term  of  seven  vears. 

Larson  was  let  out  of  prison,  after 
having  served  one  year  of  a  three  and 
one-half-year  term.  Details  are  lack- 
ing as  to  the  Influences  that  were  ef- 
fective in  procuring  demencv,  but  it  Is 
asserted  Larson  will  leave  the  state 
His  destination  will  probably  be  Utah 
where  it  is  said  a  prominent  mining 
man  will  assist  him  in  getting  on  his 
feet. 


HIS  HORSE  DID 

NOT  LIVE  LONG 


Tliere  is  an  old  adage  about  never 
looking  a  gift  horse  in  the  mouth,  but 
.lotincy  La  Tour  would  have  been  wise 
to    lerform    this    act    this    afternoon 

Johnny,  who  is  a  youth  of  tender 
years,  has  been  spending  his  spare 
time  around  the  livery  stable  of  L.  D 
Goldberg  on  First  street  between  Lake 
avenue  and  First  avenue  east.  Xot 
long  ago  the  owner  of  the  stable  gave 
Johnny  a  "horse."  The  owner  thought 
the  '  horse''  was  about  ready  for  the 
equine  cenfetery,  but  Johnnv  disposed 
110  animal  within   a  few  hours   for 

-That  looked  like  "easv  monev"  to 
Johnny,  and  today  when  Mr.  Goldbere 
offered  him  another  horse.  Johnny 
leapt^d  at  tlie  bargain.  He  offered  to 
give  Johnny  the  "horse-  if  he  would 
take  It  away.  Johnny  carefully  led 
the  animal  from  the  stable.  TheV  had 
gone  less  than  200  feet  when  the"  ani-

"Unselfish  work,  work  that  doesn't

But  wlio  in  the  world  can  give  it? 

Frank  Chance,  despite  the  orange 
grove  at  Glendora,  Cal..  it's  a  good 
bet,  wouldn't  sneer  at  the  much  dis- 
cussed twentj'  thousand  per  year  and

be  tick1e<l  to  death  with  the  Associated 
Press  verification  of  the  story  that 
Duluth  is  going  to  break  into  the

would  cause  uproarious  laughter, 
many  cigars  and  several  other  things.

and  this  lad  is  verj^  appreciative. 

Art  White  would  like  a  new  style

WILL  GOTCH 

ENTER  RING? 


Indications  Point  to  Awak-

Part  of  Champion. 

Buffalo.  N.  Y.,  Dec.  24. — Is  Frank 
Gotch  beginning  to  sit  up  and  take 
notice  of  Zbyszko's  challenge  for  the 
world's  wrestling  championship?  Indi- 
cations are  pointing  that  way.  At  any 
rate,  following  the  arrival  of  the  Pol- 
ish wrestler  in  America  on  Thursday,

Duluth  Boat  Club  Coach  Is 

Expected  Here  on 

the  First. 

.Tames  E.  Ten  Eyck,  coach  of  the 
Duluth  Boat  club,  wlU  return  to  Du- 
luth on  the  first  of  the  year,  accord- 
ing to  the  statement  made  today  by 
one  of  the  officials  of  the  Boat  club. 
Shortly  after  the  first  of  the  year  the 
work  of  instructing  the  men  on  the 
machines  will  be  taken  up,  the  new 
rowing  apparatus,  the  very  latest  of  its 
kind,  teing  on  its  way  to  Duluth  at  the 
present   time. 

Some  of  the  men  are  working  out  at 
the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  gymnasium  at  the 
present  time.  With  the  arrival  of  Ten 
Eyck  there  will  be  a  call  Issued  for 
candidates  and  it  is  expected  that  a 
large  crowd  of  men  will  get  out  and 
trv    for   places   In    the   boat. 

Owing  to  the  laudable  fact  that  Du- 
luth won  both  the  junior  eight  and 
bantam  four  events  at  Winnipeg  last 
season  it  will  be  necessary  to  make  up 
new  crews.  This  gives  the  new  men 
who  trv  for  the  crew  a  greater  op- 
portunitv  than  has  been  the  case  dur- 
ing the  last — well,  anyway,  for  a  good 
manv  years  past. 

Duluth's  ambition  is  to  place  a  crew 
on  the  water  that  can  defeat  the  crack 
'  senior  eight  of  Winnipeg.  According 
to  the  present  Indications  Duluth 
should  have  the  best  rowing  year  In 
the   history   of   the   club. 

BIG  MATClTSEt 

FOR  LATER  DATE 

Miller   and   Matsuda   Will 

Clash  After  New 

Year's. 

After  some  strenuous  worlt  on  the 
telegraph  wires  the  match  between 
Matsuda,  the  famous  Jap,  and  Walter 
Miller  was  yesterday  postponed  from 
the  night  of  Dec.  30  until  the  evening 
of  Jan.  3.  The  delay  was  made  at  the 
reoue^t  of  Ed  Adamson,  who  says  that 
he  wants  just  that  much  additional 
time  to  put  the  little  Jap  in  the  very 
best  condition  of  his  life  for  the  match 
with    Mill'^r. 

The    match    has    been    finally    set    for 


receive  a  remarkable  sum  as  retainer 
and  commissions — a  sum  that  would 
make  the  average  agent  of  a  business 
house  gasp  with  envy.  Since,  accord- 
ing to  Harvard  statistics  made  public 
last  week,  the  6,000  young  men  en- 
rolled at  the  university  pay  almost 
$350,000  a  year  for  their  clothes,  the 
business  is  worth  a  small  fortune  to 
tailors. 

The  business  of  acting  as  representa- 
tive for  various  establishments  is  an 
old  custom  for  noted  athletes  at  both 
Yale  and  Harvard,  and  adds  substan- 
tially to  their  bank  accounts,  as  the 
students  like  to  show  their  apprecia- 
tion of  the  deeds  of-  valor  of  their 
heroes  by  helping  them  along  in  a  bus- 
iness   way. 

Brickley  has  also  "taken  up"  shot 
putting.  He  is  training  at  the  gym- 
nasium for  the  shot  put  events  to  be 
held    at    various    indoor   meets. 

Brickley  Is  reported  to  have  also 
gathered  in  $1,000  for  lending  his  name 
to   football  articles   in   the  newspapers. 


New  York  Yankees  Believe 

Pitcher  Keating  a  Won- 

.  derful  Find. 

Chicago,  Dec.  24. — The  News  says: 
Rumors  In  New  York  indicate  the 
Highlanders  of  that  city  may  have 
obtained  a  second  edition  of  Ed  Walsh 
In  the  person  or  Recruit  Pitcher  Keat- 
ing of  the  Lawrence  club  in  the  New 
F:ngland  league.  Chicago  fans  are  hop- 
ing ^Ceating  is  all  that  is  said  of  him, 
since  Frank  Chance  is  to  pilot  the 
Yankees   in    1913. 

It  was  Ted  Sullivan,  according  to  the 
rumor,  who  told  the  glad  news  to  th.e 
desperate  Yankee  fans.  Said  he: 

"It  looks  to  be  small  in  time  stuff 
nowadays  to  say  that  there  is  another 
Ed  Walsh  in  the  pitchig  woods.  Walsh 
is  all  alone  in  this  world  as  a  pitcher, 
iie  is  all  alone  with  that  spit-ball  he 
handa  to  the  tatters  in  his  league,  and 
we  will  taTi?  ffrf  authority  such  as  Wil- 
lie Keeler,  who  said,  when  asked 
about   the  spitball   Walsh  uses; 

"I  will  tell  you.  There  never  has 
been  a  spit-ball  that  I  recall  with  such 
a  dip  on  it  as  the  one  Walsh  handles. 
I  have  often  told  the  men  who  were 
with  me  on  the  Yankee  team  and  other 
clubs  not  to  get  discouraged  when 
they  failed  to  hit  his  offerings.  I  al- 
ways made  It  a  rule  to  take  my  little 
bat  up  to  the  batting  depot,  stand 
there  like  vou  would  If  another  'chuck- 
er'  was  In  the  box,  and  then  swing.  If 
you  miss,  just  laugh  at  it. 

"  "Take  a  chance  on  connecting  with 
the  bulb,  but  never  worry.  Walsh  is 
the  only  man  who  ever  struck  me  out 
twice  In  one  day  since  I  have  been 
in  baseball."

Herman  made  this  reply  to  the  mes- 
sage: 

"Zbyszko  will  wrestle  Gotch  winner 
take  all,  or  split  the  purse  winner  and 
loser  end  any  w»y  Gotch  wants  It 
done." 

To  a  reporter  for  the  Express  Her- 
man  said; 

"Wlien  Gotch  wrestled  Zbyszko  in 
Chicago  we  had  to  sign  articles  calling 
for  5  per  cent  of  the  gross  receipts, 
while  Gotch  took  60  per  cent.  This  fine 
division  by  tlie  articles  was  confirmed 
by  Gotch,  his  maneger,  Klank,  tlie  club 
officials  and  ourselves.  We  lost  that 
match.  If  Gotch  can  beat  us  again  on 
tlie  winner-takc-all  ba-sit  we  will  do 
even  worse.  But  he  won't  beat  thvj 
Pole  again.  I  only  hope  he  wrestles 
iiim." 

Herman  says  that  Zbyszko  is  In 
splendid  form  foilov.-ing  his  voyage 
from  Europe  and  Is  better  qualified  for 
mat  work  now  than  ever  before  in  his 
life.

Pittsburg.  Pa.,  Dec.  24. — "Hans  Wag- 
ner's remarkable  vigor  year  in  and 
year  out  isn't  so  remarkable  when  you 
look  at  it  sensible.-,"  says  a  prominent 
physician  fan  of  this  city  in  discussing 
the  fact  that  Hor.us  will  soon  embark 
on  his  seventeenth  year  as  a  star  ma- 
jor leaguer. 

"When  a  man  of  his  natural  phys- 
ique can  eat  what  he  wants,  drink 
what  he  wants  and  do  what  he  pleases 
in    the    open    air   all    the    year    around 

it  isn't  any  real  wonder  that  he  pro- 
longs his  athletic  career  and  stands 
off  the  slowness  and  stateness  that 
comes  to  the  best  of  them  as  the  years 
go  by,"  conlinuef:  the  doctor,  who  for 
professional  reasons  withholds  his 
name. 

"Honus  is  the  living  Ideal  of  the 
simple  life.  He  clings  to  nature.  He 
spends  his  fall  and  winter  in  the 
woods  and  the  spare  time  of  the  sum- 
mer at  the  banks  of  a  stream — fishing. 
He  loves  the  fre'?dom  of  the  open  air 
and  he  is  at  liome  In  the  wildest 
woods.  He  has  the  nature  of  an  In- 
dian in  this  respect.  You  don't  catch 
Honus  browsing  about  the  city  or 
on  the  streets  of  his  home  town.  He 
keeps  to  himsel:'  or  in  his  own  pet 
little  circle  of  woodmen. 

"I  have  known  him  personally  for 
vears  and  I  know  that  his  fondness  for 
hunting  and  fishing  and  life  in  the 
open  air  has  kei't  him  from  going  to 
the  discards  as  u  really  great  player. 
I  have  tried  to  prescribe  such  living 
to  certain  of  my  patients,  but  it  is^n't 
born  in  them.  Honus  roams  tlie  woods 
from  pure  desire.  He  doesn't  worry. 
He  sleeps  a  lot  and  he  eats  what  he 
pleases  and  when  he  pleases.  Ham 
and  eggs  look  good  to  him  three  times 
a  day.  Betweer  meals  he  seeks  the 
open  air — either  in  his  automobile  or 
on   foot. 

Inroliinfar?'  Poet. 

"Honus  has  a  pot-tic  nature  in  this 
respect,  though  he  is  anything  but  a 
poet.  But  the  open  air,  the  trees,  the 
streams  and  the  wild  freedom  of  the 
woods  have  a  fancy  for  him  and  in 
this  environmen'.  only  is  ho  happy.  Is 
it  any  wonder  then  that  he  retains 
his  vigor  and  conserves  much  of  that 
dash    and    speed    that    make    him    the 


annual   wonder   on    the   ball    field? 

"Let  us  fancy  another  kind  of  Waar- 
ner.  What  if  Honus  had  been  an  In- 
different kind  of  a  chap  with  a  fancy 
for  the  limelight  and  the  streets  of  the- 
city  in  the  off  season.  What  If  he  just 
loafed  around  and  did  nothing?  Four 
or  five  years  ago  Honus  would  have 
passed  from  the  realm  of  the  truly 
great.  But  to  his  roving  nature  and 
his  love  for  the  eimple  life  the  Pitts- 
burg club  and  the  fans  of  Pittsburg 
dwe  the  fact  that  Honus  comes  around 
every  year  and  is  the  mainstay  of  the 
Pirates.  Yes,  sir — r — e — e.  I  have 
patients  with  whom  I  could  work  won- 
ders if  I  could  only  get  them  to  tramp 
around  in  the  dead  leaves  during  the 
fall  of  the  year  instead  of  grouching 
around  gas  stoves  and  eampling  every 
kind  of  medicine  under  the  heavens. 
But  the  desire  for  outdoor  life  has  to 
be  part  of  a  man's  nature  and  Hana 
Wagner  has   that   nature." 

Loyal  to  Ham  and. 
Our  friend,  the  doctor,  certainly  ha» 
a  good  line  on  Wagner,  writes  Jamea 
Jerpe  in  the  Gazette  Times.  He  calls 
the  turn,  so  to  speak,  when  he  discusse* 
Wagners  fondness  for  ham  and  eggs. 
There  is  nothing  tempting  on  the  hotel 
or  dining  car  menu  for  Honus.  He 
prefers  the  simplest  kind  of  fare  and 
plenty  of  it.  Honus  would  stop  at  th© 
Waldorf  .Astoria  and  calmly  order 
"ham-and  "  all  the  while  Ignoring  with 
characteristic  contempt  the  alleged 
tempting  merits  of  lobster  a  la  New- 
burg,  pate  de  fois  gras,  crab  ravlgotte 
and  the  pastries  and  knick  nacks  of  the 
steward's  batting  order.  For  fifteen 
years  they  have  tried  to  wine  and  dine 
Honus  and  educate  him  up  to  these 
lofty  notions  in  the  culinary  art,  but 
the  German  would  rather  order  his  own. 
meals  and  pay  twice  as  much  for  them 
as  the  chap  who  fusses  over  the 
Frenchy  menu  and  its  varieties. 

As  for  the  evenings  in  a  large  city 
Honus  alwavs  enjoys  himself.  In  New 
York  he  hunts  out  the  big  moving  pic- 
ture shows  where  the  movies  may  be 
showing  African  game  hunts  or  some

Abe    Atteli  Takes  Charge  of    White 
Hope  From  Kansas. 

Chicago,  Dec.  24. — Abe  Atteli,  pilot 
of  a  "whito  hope."  That's  the  new 
title  the  former  featherweight  cham- 
pion expects  to  be  wearing  in  a  few 
days.  Abe  stopped  off  in  Chicago  on 
his  way  to  San  Francisco  and  had  a 
long  talk  with  Jess  Willlard  a  'hope" 
from  Kansas,  on  the  subject  of  man- 
aging him.   They   agreed  on   terms  and 

I  will   be  ready   for   teamwork   in  a   few 

I  days. 

WUliard,  who  holds  a  decision  over 
Luther  McCarty,  has  caused  surprise 
by  his  work  in  a  gymnasium  here  in 
the  last  week.  Jim  Flyn  looked  him 
over  and  pronounced  him  a  good  man. 
Williard  Is  almost  six  feet,  six  Inches 
tall  and  weighs  215  pounds. 

Atteli  will  go  from  here  to  the  bed- 
side of  his  mother,  who  is  seriously 
111. 


ZBYSZKO  MAY 

MEET  BIG  STAR 

Attempts  Are  Being  Made  to 

Have  Match  Wrestled 

Here. 

Realizing  that  the  present  season  Is 
his  last  on  the  mat,  and  also  knowing 
that  of  all  the  big  wrestlers  who  have 
ever  visited  this  city  Stanislaus  Zbys- 
zko is  the  overwhelming  f-avorlte,  of- 
ficials of  the  Greater  Duluth  Athletic 
club  vesterday  began  negotiations 
with  the  idea  of  matching  him  with 
one  of  the  greatest  heavyweights  in 
the   world. 

There  is  on  his  way  to  this  country 
at  the  present  time  a  giant  who  last 
year  in  this  country  beat  some  of  the 
best  of  the  American  wrestlers.  Ac- 
cording to  the  representative  of  this 
man,  who  Is  in  Montreal,  Quebec,  he 
has  decisively  defeated  Dr.  Roller  and 
Jess  Westergaard  and  also  holds  vic- 
tories over  the  greatest  men  in  Eu- 
rope. 

Knowing  that  the  fans  want  to  be- 
hold a  real  wrestling  match  and  not 
merely  an  exhibition,  the  officials  of 
the  club  are  striving  to  sign  up  the 
big  star  from  the  other  side  of  the 
pond,  "and  In  that  event  Duluth  will 
land  one  of  the  big  matches  between 
big    men    of   the    year. 


any   more.'  .         ^^ 

The  fault  Is  not  Herrmanns.  The 
burden  rests  with  the  fans.  Cincin- 
nati rooters  can't  st-and  a  winner  or  a 
loser.  A  victor  goes  to  their  heads,  a 
loser  to  their   feet. 

This  Is  what  Joe  Tinker  has  to  laco. 

One    of   the    best    things    "Hek"    ever 

s-aid   was  just   before  Hank  O'Day  was

safe  to  turn  on  the  high  speed,  and  the 
Dutchman  will  have  all  he  can  attend 
to  for  the  remainder  of  the  training 
period. 

McCarty  also  plans  to  give  an  en- 
tertainment Sunday  afternoon.  In  which 
ten  or  a  dozen  rounds  of  sparring  will 
be  the  main  feature.  On  Monday  Mc- 
Carty will  box  Walter  Monohan.  his 
chief  sparring  partner,  four  rounds  at 
the  Rosemary  theater  in  Ocean  Park, 
the  proceeds  of  the  exhibition  to  go  to 
the  fire  sufferers. 

Palzer  is  slated  as  referee. 

.-^n  interesting  sidelight  on  the  big 
mill  is  the  Interesting  rivalry  between 
the  two  camps.  McCarty's  camp  is  up 
in  arms  over  O'Rourke's  declaration 
that    his    three    fighters    can    clean    out

TRACK  MEET  AT  HURON. 

Minnesota-Dakota  Conference  Decides 
on  South  Daltota  Town. 

St.  Paul,  Minn.,  Dec.  24. — The  1913 
track  meet  of  the  Minnesota-Dakota 
college  athletic  conference  will  be  held 
at  Huron,  S.  D.,  on  the  first  Saturday 
in  June.  This  was  decided  at  the  an- 
nual conference  here  yesterday. 

A  fight  developed  in  the  conference 
over  the  attempt  to  expel  the  Unlver- 
Eity  of  South  Dakota.  Prof.  E.  F. 
Chandler  of  the  University  of  North 
Dakota,  led  the  proposition  against  the 
South  Dakota  university,  alleging  fail- 
ure of  that  school  to  live  up  to  the 
spirit  of  the  eligibility  rules,  and  lack 
of  Interest  in  conference  matters.  It 
was  decided  to  allow  the  university 
another  year  before  taking  action.  The 
South  Dakota  Institution  was  not  rep- 
resented at  the  conference. 


JOHNSON  BUTTING 

INTO  LAKE  GENEVA. 


MAY  TRAIN  AT  TAMPA. 

Cubs  Spring  Camp  May  Be  Shifted 
About  the  South. 

Chicago,  Dec.  24.  —  Charles  Webb 
Murphy,  president  of  the  Chicago  Na- 
tional baseball  club,  yesterday  said  It 
was  probable  his  players  would  do 
their  spring  training  at  Tampa,  Fla. 
Should  Tampa  not  suit  them,  St.  Pe- 
tersburg would  be  tried.  St.  Peters- 
burg, failing.  Murphy  says  he  will  go 
to  Havanna. 

Murphy  is  known  to  be  trying  to 
sell  or  trade  Jimmy  Sheckard  and 
Jerry  Downs  to  Miller  Huggins,  mana- 
ger of  the  St.  Louis  Nationals.  As  yet 
Huggins  has  not  shown  any  great 
amount  of  enthusiasm  over  the  over- 
tures of  the  Chlcagoan.  for  Murphy 
always  coupled  the  names  of  Bob  Har- 
mon or  Harry  Sallee  with  those  of  his 
trading  material.  Thus  far,  Huggins 
has  offered  ''Rube"  Geyer  as  a  trading 
possibility,  and  that  did  not  interest 
Murphy.

Changes  System  of  Work 

In  Ely  District. 

Elj-,       Minn..      Dec.    24. — ^Special      to 
The  Herald.) — The  Oliver  Mining   com- 
pany   Is    gradually    altering    Its    style 
of   mining   here    in    Ely.     Up    to    a   few 
weeks    back    the    pillar   caving   method  j 
was    the    general    method    employed    fori 
the  taking  out  of  the  ore   but   now   tiie 
method    is    to    be    changad    to    .-luicing.  j 
The    Zenith    Sibley    and    the    east    side  j 
of    the    Pioneer    have    already    adopted  | 
this    method,    by    which    It    is    expected  j 
to   keep    the    ore    cleaner   and    to    bring 
it  up  to  a  higher  percentage  of  purity,  i 
The  company   officials  are  also  consid- 
ering  the   advisability  of  discontinuing 
the  i;.se  of  candles  in  the  mines  and  to 
adopt    the  carbide   lamps   for  illuminat- 
ing   purposes.      Carbide    lamps    after    a 
series   of   tests   having    proved   superior 
to   the   candle.

will  put  on  some  special  stunts  for 
those  who  love  to  make  the  night  be-

E.  H.  Lee,  managing  director  of  the

There  will  be  nothing  in  the  wav  of

Lee  says  the  employes  of  the  house 
are  going  to  try  and  make  the  lonelv 
knights  of  the  road  and  others  try  anil 
forget  that  they  are  not  at  home. 

The    McKay    is    going    to    have   a    big 
dinner  and  the  handsomest  menu  cards

The  Christmas  rush  at  the  postoffice 
and  at  the  express  offices  is  about 
over,  but  today  there  is  still  a  mild 
rush  of  tho.se  who  are  .sending  belated 
presents  to  people  only  a  short  dl.>i- 
tance  away,  or  of  those  who  are  "get- 
ting back",  having  received  presents 
fr-jm   unexpected  sources. 

.'Saturday,  the  postoffice  authorities 
sa.v,  was  the  busiest  day  they  have 
ever  ha«l  in  the  historv  of  the  local 
postoffice.  Yesterday  was  bad  enough, 
lor  there  were  lines  of  people  waiting 
to  mail  and  to  register  parcels  from 
early  in  the  morning  until  late  in  the 
afternoon.  But  on  Saturdav  everv  de- 
partment was  overwhelmed  with  work 
The  registry  department  got  it  per- 
haps the  worst,  for  it  had  to  handle 
not  only  outgoing  but  incoming  pack- 
ages, and  it  was  heaw  both  wavs. 
bupt.  Barker  of  that  department  sa'vs 
that  he  expects  wlien  he  checks  up 
inisiness  after  the  rush  to  fin-J  that 
there  has  been  double  the  amount  of 
any  previous  year. 

The  attendants  at  the  general  de- 
Inery  window  are  working  hard  as 
well  as  thosf  in  tiie  other  departments. 
Evidently  the  -folks  at  home"  do  not 
forget  many  of  the  wanderers  who 
nave  not  permanent  addresses,  for 
packages  and  remembrances  are  being 
pas.sed  through  the  general  delivery 
window  about  as  regularly  as  tiiey  go 
into  the  bags  ol  the  carriers  to  be  con- 
veyed to  home.s.  Scores  of  those  who

blow  out,"  as  .some  of  them  term  it. 
race  the  general  delivers-  window  tiiese 
days  with  a  look  of  expectancv  in  most 
oases,  and  others  appear  at  "the  win- 
dow and  ask  without  much  of  an  ex- 
pression of  hope.  In  the  latter  cases, 
particularly,  when  it  is  found  that 
there  is  a  package  the  men  at  the  gen- 
eral delivery  window  sav  that  the 
change-  of  expres.sion  is  invariably  one 
not   to  be  forgotten. 

No   Parcel   Pout    Vet. 

Evidently  som.e  people  do  not  under- 
stand that  the  parcel  post  does  not  go 
into  effect  until  Jan.  1,  for  there  have 
been  .several  applications  for  statnps  of 
that  department  within  the  last  few 
"^P-  .a"<l  two  packages  of  consider- 
able size  came  from  Northern  Michigan 
to  local  addresses  with  parcel  post 
stamps  on  them.  They  were  accepted 
as  I  ncle  Sam's  employes  are  too  busv 
to  weed  these  things  out.  but  the  local 
authorities  do  not  understand  how  the 
senders  happened  to  get  the  stamps. 
It  is  thought  that  perhaps  the  post- 
masters at  the  places  of  shipment  did 
not   understand  the  law  themselves 

One  woman  who  applied  for  parcel 
post  stamps  yesterday  had  a  bundle 
which  she  said  weighed  exactlv  eleven 
pounds  the  limit  in  weight,  and  which 
the  postal  authorities  sa.v.  looked  more 
like  fifteen  pounds.  She  was  verv  In- 
dignant that  she  could  not  get  stampH 
and  went  away  evidentlv 
that  the  postoffice  people

LOOKING  FOR 

A  LONELY  MAN 

"An  Elderly  Single  Gentle- 
man" Has  Invitation 
to  Dinner. 

If  there  Is  an  elderly  single  man  in 
Duluth,  who  has  no  home  and  sees  a 
lonesome  Christmas  ahead,  he  has  an 
Invitation  to  dinner  with  another  elder- 
ly single  man. 

The  new  "good  fellow"  stunt  appeared 
today.  A  man  called  up  The  Herald 
and  said  he  wanted  to  extend  an  Invita- 
tion to  dinner  tomorrow  to  an  elderly 
single  man.  The  Herald  didn't  know  of 
anybody  right  at  the  moment,  but 
promised  to  look  up  a  dinner  companion 
for   the   inquirer. 

Another  "good  fellow"  who  called  at 
The  Herald  today  showed  the  right 
spirit.  He  took  the  names  of  three 
deserving  poor  families,  about  a  dozen 
people  in  all,  and  promised  to  supply 
not  only  toys  for  the  children,  but  food 
and  other  substantial  gifts.  He  said  he 
Intended  to  get  a  cutter  this  afternoon 
and  make  a  Santa  Claus  trip  all  his 
own. 


PIPER'S  SON 
IS  REFORMED 

"Tom,  Tom,"   of   Nursery 

Rhyme  Fame  No  Longer 

Steals  Pigs. 


Your   husband    is  waiting, 
Your    children    are    home." 


"Doctor    Foster 
Went    to    Gloeter 
In   a  shower   of   rain: 
He    buttoned    his    coat 
Up    to    his    throat. 

And      laughed — and      was      glad      be 
came." 


Debrutalized  Edition  of 
Mother  Goose  Received 
in  Duluth. 


"What      are      little      boys      made      of, 

ir.-ade    of. 
What    are    little    boys    made    of? 
laughs   and   smiles   and   cunning   wiles. 
That's    wr.at    little    boys    are    made    of, 

made  of. 

What       are       little       girls       made       of, 

made   of. 
V.'h-at    are    little    girls    made    of? 
Laughs     and      kisses,     the     dear    little 

misses. 
And    that  F    what    l;tll«    girls   are    made 

of,   made  of." 


It's  come  at  lust!  The  reformers  have 
reached  the  outside  limit.  They  can  go 
no  farther.  They've  debrutalized 
"Mother  Goose,  '  taken  the  "pepe,"  as 
it  were,  out  of  the  friend  of  our  child- 
hood  days. 

"Tom,  Tom,  the  piper's  son"  will 
steal  no  more  rigs.  He'll  pick  a  flower 
instead.  Taffy  will  not  be  a  "thief," 
but  a  'chief."  Mother  Hubbard  will 
find  all  kinds  of  bones  In  the  cup- 
board. The  old  R-oman  who  lived  in  the 
shoe  will  not  be  an  argument  for  race 
suicide,  for  sh<-'Il  know  just  what  to 
do  with  all  hei-  children.  Mary,  Mary, 
will  be  "never  contrary.  '  "Pussy"  will 
not  be  in  a  well,  it's  to  be  a  bucket. 

Some  reformer  with  an  idea  that 
improper  impnssions  are  created  in 
the  mind  of  a  child  by  the  jingles  of 
childhood  has  eliminated  every  sug- 
gestion  of  Impropriety. 

A  book  containing  the  reformed  ver- 
sion of  the  Mother  Goose  rhymes  has 
been  discovered  in  a  Duluth  book- 
store. 

Imagine    the    groans    of    agony    that 
will   come    from    father   when   he   hears 
his    young   hopeful    reciting: 
"Needles  and  pins,  needles  and  pins. 
When   a   man   riarries   his   comfort   be- 
gins." 

That's  what  the  new  Mother  Goose 
book   says. 

Tom,  the  Thief. 

You'll  remember  what  a  riotous  ca- 
reer was  led  by  Tom,  the  piper's  son, 
who  "stole  a  jiig  and  away  he  run?" 
Tom  has  been  regenerated  and  thus 
we  see  him: 

"Tom,  Tom,   th<    piper's  son, 
Picked    a    flow'^r    and    away    he    runl 
The    flower    wis    sweet. 
And   Tom    was   fleet. 

And      how     they     laughed     along      the 
street." 

That  brutal  exclamation  point  is  in 
the  new  versian,  and  doubtless  was 
overlooked.  Also  it  Is  strange  that 
the  children  should  have  been  allowed 
to  laugh   along  the  street. 

And  there  was  "Mary,  Mary,  quite 
contrary."  Alas,  she,  too,  has  been 
converted  from  her  nefarious  ways. 
Now    Mother   Goose   has   it: 

■'Miss   Mary. 

Never   contrary. 

How    does    your    garden    grow — 

With  its  lily  bells, 

And  pretty  shells. 

All   standing  in  a  row?" 

With  what  abandon  Tommy  Green 
and  Tommv  Trout  used  to  play.  Not 
so,  now.  Littl?  pussy,  likewise,  has 
been  rescued.  This  is  the  new  style 
Mother   Goose: 

"Ding,  dong,  bell,  bucket's  in  the  well. 
Who  put  it   in?  Little  Tommy  Gre^n. 
Who     pulled     it     out?       Little     Tommy 

Trout. 
What    good    boys    were    they. 
On    a    warm    summers    day. 
To  give  everybody  a  nice,  cool  drink — 
Now    isn't    that   Just    what   you    think?' 
Xo    >lore    BefSKnrm. 

Under  the  ne'v  regime  in  the  nursery 
there    shall    be    no    more    beggars: 

"Hark,    hark,    the   dogs    do    bark. 
The  children  have  come  to  town: 

Some   with    bigs    and    some   on    nags. 
And    some    in    velvet    gowns." 

But  see  wh.it  they  have  done  to 
Jack  Horner:  he  should  worry.  Jack 
used  to  be  considerable  person  in  the 
old  book,  but  has  become  a  molly- 
coddle; witness: 
"Little  Jack   Horner 

Sat    in   a   corner. 
Eating  a  Christmas   pie. 
He  put  in   his    ihumb 

And    pulled    t.ut    a    plum. 
And   said,  '"U'hat  a  big  plum — oh  my.'" 

The  Mother  Goose  that  most  of  us 
knew  had  "sin;?  a  song  of  sixpence,  a 
pocketful  of  rye."  The  new  version 
ij  a  teetotaler:  the  author  has  cut  out 
the  booze,  anl  Instead  of  rye  one 
reads: 

"Sing  a   song  of  sixpence, 
A   heart   filled   full    of   love. 

Four  and    twenty   blackbirds 
And    one    v-hlte    dove. 

When    the   dcor   was   opened 
The    birds    began    to    sing; 

"VVasn't    that    a   pretty    sight 
To   set    before   a   king?" 

The  big  man  of  Bombay  seems  to  be 
the  only  one  no  far  who  has  played 
in  luck  in  the  Goody  Goody  book.  It 
used    to  be: 

•'When  a  bird  called  a  snipe 
Ran  away    with  his  pipe,"  etc. 

But  to  instill  the  idea  into  the  youth- 
ful   mind    that    it   is   a   violation    of   the 
city    ordinance    to    take    a    man's    pipe 
the  new  version   says: 
"When    a    bird    called    a    snipe 
Came    and   sat    on    his    pipe, 
Which    pleased    the    Big  Man    of   Bom- 
bay." 

Trying  it  on  the  dog,  we  encounter 
another  alteration  that  is  surprising, 
but    fine    for    tlie    dog: 

"Old  Mother  Hubbard 

Went   to  the  cupboard 

To   get   hei    dear   dog   a   bone; 

And   when   she  got  there 

Many  bonesi  made  her  stare. 

And  the  dog  got  one  all  his  own." 

In  the  old  dJ.ys,  when  Friday  after- 
noon was  execution  day  (they  called 
it  elocution)  and  every  one  had  to 
"speak  a  piece,""  this  used  to  go  pret- 
tv  well: 
"Taffv  was  a  ""tVelshman,  Taffy  was  a 

thief; 
Taffv    came    to   my   house   and   stole  a 
leg  of  beef  '"  etc. 

Rrfermlaa:  TafTy. 

Those  days  are  gone  for  Taffy.  He's 
turned  over  a  new  leaf.  and  he 
wouldn't  steal  a  leg  of  beef  for  any- 
thing in  the  world,  because  If  he  did 
maram«,  wouldn't  let  him  embroider 
anv  more,  so  there.  And  in  the  1913 
model  of  Mother  Goose  we  have 
"Taffy   was   a   '^N'elshman,    Taffy   was   a 

chief; 
Taffy    c%me  to  my  house  and  brought  a 

piece   of    beef. 
I   went   to   Taffy's    house,   Taffy   wasn't 

home; 
Taffy    came    to    my   house   and    brought 

a    marrow    bone. 
I   went   to  Tafff's   house.   Taffy  was  In 

bed, 
I     said,     'Thank     you.     Taffy' — and     he 
covered    up    his    head. ' 

The  cat  "and  the  fiddle  jingle  also 
has  been  altered  to  suit  the  millen- 
nium, should  It  arrive  this  season: 

"Hey,    diddle    diddle 

The  cat  and  "he  fiddle; 

The    cow   jumped    over   the    moon — 

The    little    dog    barked    to    see    such 

sport. 
And   the   dish   danced   away  with   the 

spoon." 
All    the    following    verses    are    taken 
from    the   new    books: 

"Little    Bo-peep  *o    loves   her    sheep 
She  knows  just    where    to   find   them; 

If    she    leaves   them   alone    they'll    come 
home. 
Bringing   the  r   l«amb8   behind    them." 

"I  had  a   little   pony. 

They    called    him     Dapple-gray; 
I  lent  him   to  a  lady 

To   ride   a   mile   away. 
She   petted   him,   she  loved   him. 

She  kept   him   from  the  mire; 
I'll    always   b^nd    my    pony   now 

For   the   little   lady's   hire." 


"There    was   an    old    woman    who   lived- 

In    a   shoe. 
She    had    so    many    children    she    knew^ 

Just  what  to  do: 
She  gave  them  some  broth  with  plenty 

Of    bread. 
And    kis^•ed    them    all    fondly    and    put 

them    to    bed."

There  are  many  others,  all  of  then* 
freed  of  anything  that  might  give  rise 
to  an  Idea  in  the  brain  of  the  child. 
In    the   introduction    the   expert   says: 

"Rfilizing  how  potent  is  the  power 
of  all  good  thought  planted  In  the 
fertile  tjround  of  the  mind  of  a  grow- 
ing child,  the  modern  mother  hesitates 
over  the  old  Mother  Goose  rhymes. 
Dear  as  they  are  for  old  custom's 
sake,  many  of  them  are  l>rutal  or  too 
sad  to  be  mentally  healthful  at  "a 
time  when  the  little  brain  Is  most 
plastic   to   absorb   and    to   retain."

FROJWCOURT 

John  T.  Pritchard  Is  Given 

His  Release  By  Judge 

Dancer. 


Had    Served    Forty-Four 

Days  of  Ninety-Day 

Term  in  Jail. 


John  T.  Pritchard,  county  jail  pris- 
oner, was  this  morning  given  his  lib- 
erty as  a  Christmas  present  from  Judge 
Dancer    of    the   district   court. 

Pritchard  on  Nov.  10  last  was  sen- 
tenced to  a  ninety-day  term  on  his 
plea  of  guilty  to  an  indictment  charg- 
ing him  with  grand  larceny,  second 
degree. 

When  brought  before  the  court  to- 
day, Pritchards  sentence  was  com- 
muted. He  had  served  forty-four  out 
of  the  ninety  days. 

The  judge  admonished  Pritchard  to 
walk  upright  in  the  future  and  to  fol- 
low the  straight  and  narrow  path.  He 
was  cautioned  to  keep  away  from  sa- 
loons  and    bad   company. 

Judge  Dancer  put  him  on  parole  and 
placed  him  in  charge  of  Mrs.  A.  B. 
Siewert,  a  local  probation  officer,  with 
orders  that  he  should  report  to  her  at 
.such   times  as  she  might   direct. 

Pritchard    was    arrested    on    Sept.    30 
for  stealing  material  from  a  West   end 
plumbing   shop.      He    is   2S    years   old.

COULLNT   HEAR   THE   WATCH. 

Newark  News:  A  man  went  to  a 
Newark   physician  and  said: 

"Doctor.  Ive  got  trouble  with  my  left 
ear.    What   can   you  do   for  me?" 

The  doctor  held  his  watch  a  foot 
away  from  the  patient's  ear  and  asked. 
"Can    you    hear    the    tick?" 

'I   can   barely  hear   it." 

The  phytician  got  out  some  interest- 
ing looking  instruments  and  removed 
a  birge  limp  of  wax  from  th<'  ailing 
member. 

"Now  you  ought  to  hear  better,"  he 
said,  and  held  the  watch  as  before. 

The  man  listened. 

"Don't   you   hear  it  better  now?' 

"No,    I    don't    hear    it    at    all." 

"That's  queer, "  said  the  doctor  and 
he    took    another    look. 

"Are   you  sure  you  don't  hear  now?" 

"I  can  hear  you,  but  I  cant  hear  the 
watch." 

"Let's  try  your  well  ear.  Can  you 
hear?" 

"Never    a    tick." 

The  doctor  looked  puzzled.  Tlie  pa- 
tient  looked   alarmed. 

"See  here,  doctor,  when  you  dug  me 
that  time  you  didn't  destroy  my  hear- 
ing,  did    you?" 

"I  couldn't  have  done  that."  said  the 
doctor,  'ypt  something  is  certainly 
wrong.     Listen   again." 

The  man  listened  with  the  inter.tness 
of  an  East  Orange  man  trying  to  hear 
a  street  car  at  11:30  o'clock  on  a 
stormy  night.  But  he  shook  his  head 
at   last. 

"If  vou  have  wrecked  my  ear  drum, 
doctor,"   he   began.   "I'll — " 

But  he  did  not  finish  his  threat,  for 
iust  then  the  doctor  put  his  watch  to 
his  own  ear,  grinned  foolishly  and 
said — 

"I  guess  I  forgot  to  wind  the  blamed 
thing    last    night."

BRINGS  THE   THOUGHT  OF  HOME. 

Collier's  Weekly:  Distant  blue  of  the 
New  England  hills,  sparkling  white  of 
the  New  England  fields,  and.  within, 
tlowers  and  much-read  books,  work 
done  with  laughter,  love  with  sincerity, 
and  hymn*  sung  by  the  firelight — that 
is  "Little  Women."  Many  have  been 
the  eulogies  and  monuments  to  those 
sturdy  old  New  England  exponents  of 
high  thinking;  this  simple  book  is  an 
eternal  tribute  to  the  charm  of  its 
plain  living.  From  Ohio  to  California 
and  in  the  cities  of  the  East  live  chil- 
dren of  the  Puritans,  and  in  every 
home  there  is  some  common  toucn 
transplanted  from  the  common  source. 
Sometimes  it  Is  a  bust  of  Plato  and  a 
tradition  that  learnlner  is  more  to  be 
desired  than  riches.  Sometimes  it  is  a 
lullaby  and  a  chintz  covered  chair  by 
the  fire,  sometimes  only  a  trick  of 
speech  or  a  simple  family  custom,  but 
always  it  is  the  one  thing  that  most 
surely  touches  the  chord  of  remem- 
brance and  Rives  to  the  wanderer  the 
thought   of  home. 

That  Is  why  "Little  Women"  makes 
grown  people  smile  and  men  cry  as 
they  see  it  acted  out  upon  the  stage. 
That  is  why  the  nlav  is  a  source  of 
real  Joy.  even  as  the  book  has  been  so 
many  years.  To  move  great  men  to 
great  deeds,  to  srive  knowledge  to  the 
w^ise,  to  give  spiritual  exaltation  to  the 
saint,  are  good  and  beautiful  things, 
but  to  bring  happiness  to  the  hearts  of 
uncounted  numbers  of  ea^er  little  chil- 
dren Is  not  to  be  desnlsed. 

How  manv  rollicking  families  have 
acted  "IJttle  Women?"  How  many 
lonely  little  girls  have  there  discov- 
ered playmates?  How  many  aspiring 
and  dreaming  young  souls  have  found 
in  Laurie  th^ir  first  lover  and  in  Jo 
their  first  friend?  It  will  be  long  be- 
fore this  book  dies  out  of  the  national 
life,  long  before  that  touch  of  the  New 
England  home  fails  to  strike  a  deep 
responsive  chord,  long  before  the  suc- 
ceeding generations  of  awakening 
girlhood    cease    to    rise    up   and    call    It 

blessed.

In  a  few  days  the  tugs 
luth-Superior  harbor  will 
for  the  winter.  Only  a  few 
commission,  and  only  the 
ice-breaking  tugs  are  used, 
three  or  four  boats  still  to 
and  any  day  may  see  the  last  of 
work  done.  With  that  out  of  the  way 
the  real  pall  of  winter  will  have  fallen 
upon  the  harbor  and  all  will  be  silent 
until  the  opening  of  spring.  The  Eas- 
ton  however,  will  ply  between  Duluth 
and  north  shore  points  for  some  little 
time  yet,  until,  at  least,  ice  conditions 
in  the  various  harbors  make  it  impo.n- 
siole  to  continue   the  traffic. 

It  is  said  that  despite  the  threatened 
coal  famine  which  was  making  overy 
householder  shudder  some  time  ago, 
there  is  almost  enough  coal  now  on 
the  docks  to  prevent  any  chance  of  it, 
provided  the  leniency  of  the  weather 
god  continues.  For  quite  a  while  bo- 
tore  the  season  closed,  coal  was  rushed 
up  the  lakes  on  almost  every  ship  that 
headed  this  way,  and  the  result  is 
much  better  stock  piles  than  was  ex- 
pected. , 

-Already    predictions   are    being   made 

a  mild   winter   and  an  early   open- 

of  navigation.   The   first   boats   up 

will    doubtless    bring    coal    and    as    the 

are   working   all    of    this   winter 

agreements    carrying    over     the 

year,     there     will     be  enough 

end     of     the 

as  rapidly 

them.

stockpiles     at    the    bther 

lakes  to  furnish  the  -cargoes 

as    the    boats   want    to    take 

In  connection  with  spring  cargoe.s 
It  is  expected  that  there  will  be  a 
tremendous  delay  in  gretting  the  boats 
out  of  Buffalo  when  3pring  opens  up, 
for  the  reason  that  the  harbor  is 
jammed  with  them  and  most  of  them 
are  carrying  gram  for  storage  all 
winter.  It  is  going  to  take  some  time 
to  unload  these  and  get  them  ready  to 
come  up.  •  ' 

The  ore  situation  Is  shaping  Itself 
rapidly.  It  is  claimed  that  already  al- 
most 13,000,000  tons  have  been  char- 
tered for  deivery  from  the  Head  of  the 
Lakes  next  season  at  45  cents.  It  is 
also  claimed  that  during  the  comin;? 
week — the  seven  days  ending  Jan.  1 — 
a  very  large,  part,  and  perhaps  a  ma- 
jority of  the  ore  tonnage  to  be  shippe<l 
during  the  season  of  1913  will  be  con- 
tracted for.  The  rate  Is  not  so  high 
as  was  expected,  but  it  is  much  better 
than  the  rate  of  the  past  year  and 
will  put  all  of  the  larger  boats  into 
the  ore  carrying  trade  and  prevent 
the  smaller  ones  from  taking  grain  at 
too  low  a  rate  for  profit.

has  not  materially  changed  In  the  past 
thirtv  days.  It  has  hovered  around  40c 
for  all  of  this  time.  During  the  past 
week  or  ten  days  oil  has  declined  below 
the  present  figure,  and  strictly  pure,

and  future  markets  are  both  40c  a  gal- 
lon, and  this  is  considered  to  be  the 
inside  selling  price.  As  far  as  future 
options  are  concerned,  crushers  are  not 
disposed  to  extend  the  40c  price  beyond 
December-February  contracts.  For  op. 
tions  farther  off,  including  March  and 
early  summer  months,  it  would  be  nec- 
essary to  pay  at  least  Ic  a  gallon  more 
and  possibly  2c.  May  flaxseed  is  liigher 
than  January,  so  tiitit  this  accounts  for 
the  higher  prices  asked  for  future  de- 
liveries. In  Chicago  jobbers  are  (juot- 
ing  strictly  pure,  raw  linseed  oil  in  bar- 
rel lots  at  46c  a  gallon  and  boiled  oil 
at  47c.

Clement  Curtis  &  Co.  of  Chicago 
say:  "The  amount  of  wheat  for  export 
Is  always  an  uncertain  quantity  vary- 
ing witli  accuracy  or  inaccuracy  of  the 
crop  report.  The  1911  crop  was  40,- 
000,000  bu  underestimated  on  account 
of  the  crude  adjustment  to  the  census 
report.  Tlie  government  rectified  er- 
rors this  year  in  revising  acreage. 
The  crop  of  730,000,000  bu  this  year 
alone  to  be  considered,  the  carry-over 
may  he  eliminated  and  assumed  at  the 
same  figures  at  the  end  or  the  year. 
The  annual  consumption  at  514  bu  per 
capita  will  require  533,000,000  bu  and 
seeding  75,000,000  bu,  leaving  122,000,- 
000  bu  for  export.  The  country  east 
of  the  Rockies  has  75,000,000  bu  and 
the  Pacific  slope  47,000,000  bu.  Thus 
far  exports  have  been  80,000,000  bu. 
There  is  only  42,000,000  bu  to  go  out, 
and  of  this  the  Pacific  coast  holds  30,- 
000,000  bu.  We  are  going  to  run  into 
an  acute  domestic  situation  before 
spring."

New  York,  Dec.  24. — The  early  mar- 
ket today  was  of  a  typical  pre-hollday 
character.  Many  of  the  active  specu- 
lators were  absent  from  the  Street  and 
those  who  remained  took  only  a  per- 
functory Interest  in  prices.  Dealings 
revealed  some  irregularity,  but  the 
tone  became  better  after  a  futile  effort 
had  been  made  by  the  bears  to  attract 
a   following      by      selling      the      active 

shares. 

The  money  market  displayed  further 
firmness,  call  loans  renewing  at  6  per 
cent  as  compared  with  4%  yesterday. 
Bonds    were    steady. 

There  was  hardly  enough  business  on 
hand  to  give  any  appearance  of  life  to 
liie  stock  exchange  at  the  opening  to- 
day. Prices  were  changed  but  slightly. 
Lackawanna  advanced  5  points  and 
Great   Western  lost  a  point. 

After  satisfaction  of  the'  opening  de- 
mands the  market  became  extremely 
dull  and  eased  off  gradually  to  a  level 
slightly  below  yesterdays  clo.sing. 

A  few  specialties  moved  wildly,  but 
the  active  list  was  not  affected. 
Transactions  for  the  hour  aggregated 
only   about    7,000    shares. 

Unwillingness  to  trade  was  in- 
creased by  a  rise  in  call  money  to  8 
per  cent,  and  speculation  consisted 
merely  of  scalping  transactions. 

The  clo.'^e  was  firm.  Business  was 
centralized  in  the  local  traction  group 
in  the  final  hour.  Brooklyn  Transit 
rose  314,  Third  Avenue  314  and  the  In- 
terborough  Metropolitan  stocks  1  to 
2  points.  Railroad  and  other  special- 
ties also  betrayed  a  firm  tone  on  a  lim- 
ited demand.

Paine,  Webber  &  Co..  received  from 
Foster  In  Boston  the  following  closing 
copper  letter:  "The  near  approach  of 
a  holiday  and  the  heavy  snow  storm 
in  Boston  and  New  York  caused  a  dull 
market  and  trading  was  lightest  for 
several  weeks.  There  was  absolutely 
no  feature,  although  the  tone  was 
firm.  We  look  for  a  very  little  change 
in  the  present  course  of  the  market 
until  after  the  first  of  the  year  and 
cannot  advise  purchases  excepting  on 
sharp  breaks  from  present  level  until 
the  general  situation   becomes  clearer."

Colored  Porter  Wields  Gun 

While  Passengers  Hide 

Under  Seats. 

Kansas  City.  Mo.,  Dec.  24. — To  Wal- 
ter Daniels,  a  negro  porter  of  Kangas 
City,  should  jro  the  credit  for  saving 
the  valuable  consignments  contained 
in  the  'throush  safe"  of  the  express 
car  of  St.  Louis  &  San  Francisco  train 
No.  112,  Oklahoma  City  to  Kansas  City, 
which  was  h-ild  up  near  Chandler, 
Okla.,  last  night,  according  to  passen- 
gers on  the  train,  which  arrived  to- 
dav. Daniels  shot  and  killed  the  ne- 
gro bandit  while  the  latter  was  in  the 
act  of  robbing  the   express  car. 

According  to  passengers  the  robber 
got  on  tile  train  as  it  left  Chandler 
about  9  oclook.  He  first  entered  the 
chair  car,  where,  encountering  the 
conductor,  he  robbed  that  official  of 
his  watch  and  money  and  compelled 
him  to  lead  tlie  way  to  the  express  car. 
The  robber  had  forced  the  express 
messenger  and  conductor  to  open  a 
small  safe  containing  little  of  value, 
and  was  trying  to  force  them  to  open 
tlie  larger  safe,  when  Daniels,  who 
had  had  obtained  r.  revolver  from  a 
passenger,  shot  him  in  the  back.  Scat- 
eral  shots  were  exchanged  before  W. 
S.  Gordon,  a  private  detective,  came  to 
the   porter's   assistance. 

Badly    wounded,    the    bandit 
fell   to   the    floor,   but  continued 
ing        At    length    his    muscles    relaxed 
and  he  dropp<'d  flat,  his  arms 
Eighteen    shots    were 

^"•^That"  port.'r  was  the  only  one  not 
scared  to  death,"  said  George  Peter- 
son of  Tulsa,  a  passenger  who  was  in 
the  chair  car  when  the  bandit  held  up 
Ke  conductor.  "The  porter  ^neal^ed 
Into  the  next  car  and  got  a  Te\ol\er 
while    the    rest   of    us   were    under    the

passengers.  He  had  a  sack  hung 
about  his  nec-ft,  apparently,  as  a  con- 
venient receptacle  for 


TELEPHONES    AND    FARMERS. 
In    an    article    entitled    "The      Rural 
Telephone  Line"  in  the  current  Issue  of 
Farm  and  Fireside  appears  the  follow- 
ing: 

"Consider    the    telephone    first    as    a 
business     proposition.       It     brings     the 
market  quotations  to  you  In  an  instant, 
so  that  you  can  sell  or  hold  your  prod- 
uce, as  you  deem  best,  and  the  smootli 
buyer'    can    no    longer    get    your   grain 
or  cattle  below  the  market  price.  Every 
merchant.     Implement    dealer    and    me- 
chanic in  the  town  is  at  your  immediate 
call,    and   a    breakdown    in    the    harveBt 
field  means   a  delay   of   only   hours  in- 
stead of  days.      In   case   of   sickness   or 
accident  the  doctor  can   be  on  hand   in 
less    than    half    the    time    formerly    re- 
quired,   and    I    could    cite    a    hundred 
cases  in  my  own  experience  where  livc» 
liave    been    saved   solely    because    there 
was  a  telephone  in  the  house.     In  casa 
of  fire   or  robbery,   the  country  dweller 
can  summon  immediate  assietance;  and 
if  you  want  to  hear  a  real  enthusiastic 
talk,  Just  ask  the  country  woman    *l»o 
has  a  telephone  how  much  it  has  done 
to  remove  her  fear  of  tramps  when  the 
men   folks'  are   away. 

"Then  look  at  the  social  Bide.  In  the 
old  days  a  'visit'  meant  an  entire  sus- 
pension of  work,  a  long  drive  'there 
and  back  again,'  tired  horses,  cross 
children  (and  husbands?),  and  the  labor 
'nvolved  made  a  real  task  out  of  what 
should  have  been  a  pleasure.  When 
you  have  a  telephone,  all  your  neigh- 
bors on  the  line  are  in  constant  touch 
with  you,  and  'visiting'  among  the 
ladles,  as  a  rule,  keeps  the  wires  hot' 
through  the  leisure  hours  of  the  day 
and  evening.  1  was  once  asked  to  find 
out  the  trouble  with  a  line  in  Missouri 
and  told  that  'the  bells  did  not  ring- 
well.'  On  investigating,  1  found  a 
grounded  line  over  forty  miles  long 
with  ninety-three  instruments  on  It; 
the  Instruments  were  of  half  a  dozen 
different  makes,  and  it  was  a  sheer  im- 
possibility to  ring  from  cme  end  of  the 
line  to  the  other;  in  fact,  it  required 
the  assistance  of  half  a  dozen  users  to 
send  a  call  througli.  When  1  laughing- 
ly suggested  that  sucii  service  was 
pretty  nearly  as  bad  as  none  at  all.  one 
old  fellow  (and  he  lived  away  out  near 
the  end,  too)  drawled,  Wa'al,  she  is 
pretty  slow,  but  at  that,  she  beats  a 
horse.'     And  so  'she'  did.

Cotton    Market. 

New  York,  Dec.  24. — The  cotton 
market  opened  steady  at  an  adxance 
of  4  to  8  points  and  sold  about  9  to 
10  points  higher  during  the  early  trad- 
ing on  trade  buying  and  covering  of 
shorts  for  over  the  holidays.  Higher 
cables  than  due  and  bullish  Southern 
spot  advices  helped  the  advance,  but 
general  business  was  not  active  and 
while  there  was  some  little  buying  by 
houses  with  Liverpool  and  New  Or- 
leans connections,  the  trading 
peared    to    be    chiefly    local.

Farm    and     Home.     There     are 
reasons  why  the  farm  baby  starts  out 
In  life  with  an  advantage  over  his  clt> 

cousin.  .      ,  ..      ,_„^ 

To  begin  at  the  beginning,  the  farm 
baby  usually— not  always,  but  usually 
has  the  benefit  of  good  healthy  stock. 
The  rugged,  simple  life  of  the  farm 
generally  insures  in  the  parents  a 
sturdy  strain  which  is  an  ^Inestimable 
physical  capital  to  the  child  of  sticn 
parentage.  And  the  value  of  this  kind 
of  a  foundation  is  being  constantly 
shown  in  the  fact  that  the  men  who 
weather  the  strenuous  nerve-racking 
life  of  the  city  best,  and  last  the  long- 
est under  it.  are  always  the 
whose  boyhood  was  spent  on  the 
So,  even  before  it  is  born,  the 
baby  "has  the  goods"  on  the 

Then  the  larm  baby  has  all  the  ad- 
vantages of  pure  air,  fresh  mi'l*;.  and 
later,  good  farm  food,  all  of  which, 
intelligently  utilized,  reinforce  the 
healthv  stjck  Inherited  by  the  child, 
and  m"ake  a  strong,  healthy  man  or 
woman  cut  of  it.  It  is  not  alone  that 
these  advantages  are  obtainable  in  the 
country,  which  are  so  hard  to  get  in 
the  citv,  but  they  are  within  the  reach 
of  every  faim  family,  no  matter  how- 
modest  its  circumstances  being,  indeed, 
part  and  parcel  of  the  necessary  prod- 
uct of  the  farm.  .     .    ,      ^ 

In  addition  to  these  material  advan- 
tages, the  farm  baby  enjoys  the  tre- 
mendous benetlts  of  the  simple  life. 
The  fret  and  fever  and  stress  of  the 
citv,  with  its  struggle  for  existence 
and  its  artificial  conditions,  neither 
hinder  nor  unnaturally  force  the 
growth  of  body  or  mind.  The  child  of 
the  farm  is  brought  up  in  quiet,  rest- 
ful, elemental  surroundings,  which 
best  conserve  the  nerve  energy  and 
favor  normal,  wholesome  development. 
The  farm  boy  and  girl  come  into  touch, 
from  the  earliest  dawn  of  conscious- 
ness, with  the  simple,  real  things  of 
nature,  and  thus  they  acquire  right 
wavs  of  thinking  and  the  habit  of 
looking  on  the  natural  side  of  every- 
thing. Thev  get  very  close  to  the 
heart  of  things,  which  undoubtedly  ac- 
counts for  the  solid  success  t4iey 
usually  achieve  when  they  grow  up 
and  go  to  trie  city. 


THE  DIPLOMATIC  CHILDREN. 
Strand:  The  son  of  one  of  the  lead- 
ing representatives  of  a  foreign  na- 
tion in  Washington  announced  one 
day:  "When  I  grow  up  I  am  going  to 
be  an  ambassador  or  an  American  cit- 
izen." Pressed  for  reasons  he  said: 
"So  that  I  can  always  live  In  Wash- 
ington." 

"But  it  takes  a  long  time  to  become 
an  ambassador,"  his  father  reminded 
him.  "You  would  have  to  serve  as 
secretary  first,  and  even  if  you  finally 
were  promoted  and  received  an  appoint- 
ment, it  might  be  to  Madagascar  or 
Herzegovina.  What  would  you  do 
then?" 

The  long  names  rather  startled  the 
young  man,  but  did  not  quench  his 
enthusiasm.  "I  would  be  such  a  good 
secretary  that  they'd  have  to  make  me 
an  ambassador,  and  if  my  post  was — 
well,  to  either  of  the  places  you  said, 
why.  I'd  be  such  a  splendid  diplomat 
that  they  would  have  to  send  me  to 
Washington. 

This   Is    the  opinion   held   bv  most   of 
the    children    of    the    diplomatic    corps 
in    Washington;    even    tne    thoughts   of 
"going  home"   possess   little  attraction, 
so  thoroughly  do  they  love  the  Capitol 
City.       Diplomatic     life     has     been     flo- 
scrjbed    as    nomadic,    and    the    youngs 
sters  dread   these  changes  as   much   as 
the    other  members    of   the    family,    for 
the  freedom   and  spontaneity  of  Ameri- 
can   life    are    most    attractive    to    those 
who   have    been   accustomed   to   tTie    re- 
strictions   of    a    foreign    court    where 
rigid    rules   and    formal    etiquette    pre- 
vail.    Where  necessary  removals  occur, 
and     the     children     leave    the    country, 
others    take    their    places    Immediately, 
for  few    of   the   homes   amone:    the   for- 
eign  representatives  are  childless.  The 
boys  and  girls  like  their  parents,  have 
little    coteries    of    playmates    from    the 
embassies    and    legations,    as    well    as 
the    school    friends    and    everyday    ac- 
quaintances   of   American-born    young- 
sters. 


ST.  LF^KE  WAS  A  DOCTOR. 
London  Chronicle:  St.  Luke  has  been 
generally  regarded  as  the  patron  saint 
of  the  medical  profession.  That  he 
was  himself  a  doctor  there  is  every 
evidence,  and  so  critical  a  scholar  bm 
Harnack  has  admitted  that  "no  doubt 
can  exist  that  the  third  gospel  and  the 
Acts  of  the  Apostles  were  composed 
by  a  physician."  St.  Luke  ha..s  also 
been  commemorated  as  the  first  Chris- 
tian artist — a  tradition  that  is  pre- 
Sfrv<^d  in  one  of  the  finest  of  Rossetti'a 
sonnets: 

Give   honor  unto  Luke,   evangelist; 
For  he  it  was  (the  aged  legends  say). 
Who  first  taught  Art  to  fold  her  hands 

and  pray.

A  HOME  FOR  A  CHRISTMAS  PRESENT 

What  could  he  a  more  suitahle  gift  to  your  family  at  Christmas  time  than  a  home?  Not  necessarily  a  home  all  paid  for— one  with  the  first  payment 
made  would  be  very  appropriate,  the  unpaid  part  to  be  taken  care  of  with  the  money  that  now  goes  for  rent.  Only  you  who  are  renting— you  who 
have  moved  Hme  after  time  when  you  thought  you  had  gotten  nicely  settled— realize  what  it  means  to  not  have  a  home  of  your  own. 


PLANT  YOUR 


FEBTBLI 


Present  your  message  to  successful  people 
through  THE  HERALD  want  ad  columns, 
and  you  will  surely  reap  the  harvest  of 
success. 

Use  and  read  the  want  ad  columns  of  the 
paper  whose  want  ads  are  a  success  and  you 
will  be  successful. 

Every  day  people  are  realizing  more  and 
more  that  HERALD  want  ads  get  results — 
sell  real  estate,  furniture,  horses  and  miscel-

The  temperature  ia  mild,  there  is  a

day   enjoyable.

expressed  in  the  government,  which  to-

GENERAL  JONES  ANO 
HER  ARMY  AT  HUDSON 

Marching  Suffragettes  to 

Spend  Christmas  Resting 

After  Hike  in  Storm. 

Hudson,  N.  Y.,  Dec.  25.— The  suf- 
fragette "army"  en  route  to  Albany 
did  not  march  today.  Gen.  Rosalie 
Jones,  for  the  first  time  since  the 
army  left  New  York  on  Dec.  16,  ord- 
ered a  full  day's  rest  for  the  observ- 
ance of  Christmas  festivities.  The  pro- 
gram of  celebration  Included  a  sltatinja; 
partv,  a  Christmas  dinner,  and  tonight 
attendance  at  a  charity  ball,  where 
Miss  Jones  and  others  will  be  given 
opportunity  to  make  speeches  for  thj 
cause.  Tomorrow  the  marcliers  will  go 
on  through  the  snow  to  Stuyvesant 
Falls    a    nine-mile    journey. 

Heads  bent  to  a  cold,  biting  wind 
and  a  stinging  snow.  Gen.  Jones  and 
her  little  band  of  followers  plodded 
their  wav  into  Hudson  in  the  dark  it 
6:30    last    night. 

The  courage  of  the  marching  suf- 
fragists was  put  to  its  severest  test 
ty  the  eighteen-mile  walk  from  I'pper 
Red  Hook  to  this  city.  Facing  a  tlriv- 
ing  snowstorm,  the  little  armv  started 
off  on  the  Old  Post  road  early  in  the 
morning.  Their  first  stop  was  at  Blur 
Htores,  where  Miss  Lillian  Duboi.s 
Rockefeller  of  Germantown,  N.  Y.,  en- 
tertained the  marchers  at  luncheon.  It 
was  the  Intention  of  Gen.  Jones  and 
her  army  to  spend  Christmas  eve  at 
Livingston,  completing  the  trip  to 
Hudson  on  Christmas  day.  While  at 
Blue  Stores  word  was  received  that 
accommodations  could  not  be  provided 
at  Livingston.  General  consternation 
followed,  but  the  undaunted  gener;il, 
proving  herself  worthy  of  her  title, 
called  for  a  forced  march  into  Hud- 
son. 

Skirts  were  hastily  pinned  boot- 
high  and  ear  muffs  adjusted  before  the 
women  started  on  tluir  long,  vireary 
way.  C<<tirageou!?ly  they  plowed 
through  snow  drifts,  slipping,  sliding, 
and  sometimes  falling,  but  always  up 
und  off  again.  It  was  after  nightfall 
before  the  lights  •.•*  Hudson  twinkltid 
a  welcome. 


El  Paso.  Tex.,  Dec.  25.— Extermina- 
tion methods,  execution  of  prisoners 
and  the  raziiig  of  towns  are  to  be 
employed  in  the  north  of  Mexico. 
Col.  Manuel  Landa,  who.  with  the 
Seventh  cavalry,  is  proceeding  against 
Ascension,  is  said  to  have  devastation 
orders  from  the  city  of  Mexico.  The 
town,  a  valuable  supply  center  recently 
taken  by  the  rebels,  will  be  razed  if 
taken  by  the  federals.  It  will  be  the 
first  instance  in  the  north  of  the  "de- 
struction law'  which  already  has  been 
practiced  in  iJiorelos  and  other  south- 
ern  states. 


Send    Troops    to    Chihnaliua. 

City  of  Mexico,  Dec.  25. — Five  thou- 
sand federal  troops  will  entrain  for  the 
state  of  Chlhaahua  at  once,  according 
to  reports  fram  reliable  sources,  but 
which  could  not  be  confirmed  officially. 
It  is  said  th*-  basis  of  operations  for 
the  fresh  troops  will  be  somewhere 
south  of  Juarez,  and  that  a  portion  of 
tlie  garrison  of  that  place  will  be 
joined  with  the  new  arrivals  to  cam- 
paign against  the  rebels,  whose  oper- 
atioiis  in  ChDiuahua  have  become  a 
fcorious  menace   to   tire  government. 

It  is  said  a  difference  of  opinion 
has  arisen  between  the  American  mili- 
tary officials  on  the  border  and  the 
Mexican  government  with  regard  tc 
the  number  of  Mexican  federals  that 
should  be  left  to  protect  Juarez.  The 
Americans  contend,  it  is  said,  that 
1,000  men  will  be  required,  while  the 
Mexican  government  believes  a  much 
1(  ss   number   H-ill   suffice.

affected  by  it. 

Unskilled  labor  will  benefit  particu-

turned on  Sunday  morning  from  the

he  said  to  The  Herald: 

""U'e  have  not  yet  been  able  to  go 
over  the  situation  at  this  point,  but 
expect  to  in  a  few  days,  and  I  will  be 
glad  then  to  tell  you  just  what  it  is 
proposed  to  do.  There  are  a  great  many 
employes  in  Duluth  and  on  the  ranges 
who  will  benefit  by  the  Increase.  I 
can  tell  you  this,  that  these  who  will 
benefit  the  most  are  those  who  are 
getting  the  least  wages.  It  has  been 
decided  that  those  getting  small  wages 
are    the    ones    who    will    get    the    most

grailingf    of   that    thorouglifare. 

Several  of  tlio  property  owners  met 
with  the  board  last  Saturday  and  reg- 
istered roniplaints  resardlnR  the  dam- 
age to  their  lots.  They  c-laiined  that 
the  rontraotor  In  grading  the  avenue 
from  Second  to  Third  streets  piled 
the  dirt  over  the  edge  of  the  street 
in  attempting  to  make  it  level.  The 
owners  say  the  value  of  their  property 
has  depreclateci   as  a   result. 

Contractor  Hugh  Steele,  who  is  In 
charge  of  the  improving  of  Twenty- 
seventh  avenue,  is  of  the  belief  tliat 
the  extra  dirt  adds  to  the  property 
value  and  aids  in  making  a  proper 
street  level.  For  this  reason  the  board 
will  make  an  investigation  of  the  work 
immediately  after  the  holidays.  If  the 
property  is  believed  to  have  been  re- 
duced in  value,  the  members  of  the 
board  agree  to  meet  the  demands  of 
the  property   owners.

BIG  MEN'S  NAMES 

USED  IN  FRAUDS 


Gary,    Schwab   and   Car- 
negie Mentioned  in  Haw- 
thorne Advertising. 

New  York,  Dec.  25. — The  names  of 
Charles  M.  Schwab,  E.  H.  Gary  and 
'Mr.  Carnegie"  were  used  fn  literature 
rdvertising  a  Canadian  mining  claim 
promoted  by  .lulian  Hawthorne,  Josiah 
Quincy,  Dr.  William  J.  Morton  and  Al- 
bert I-'reeman,  accorlng  to  evidence 
offered  by  the  government  In  the  trial 
of  the  four  men  for  alleged  fradulent 
use  of  the  mails. 

"Opinions  given  by  high  authori- 
ties," Messrs.  Schwab,  Gary  and  Car- 
negie concerning  the  quality  of  Iron 
ore  obtained  from  mines  controlled  by 
foremost  steel  interests,  are  purported 
to  be  quoted  in  a  letter  written  in 
May.  1910,  to  Julian  Hawthorne  by 
George  J.  Seay,  a  banker  of  Richmond, 
Va.  This  letter  is  alleged  to  have  been 
sent  out  as  advertising  for  the  Wilbur 
mine,  a  Hawthorne  property. 

Mr.  Schwal)  is  quoted  in  the  letter  as 
j  stating  that  "the  average  ore  that  is 
heing  brought  down  by  tiio  Steel  cor- 
poration from  the  Lake  .Superior  re- 
siion   is  47   per   cent." 

The  government  offered  the  testi- 
mony of  John  W.  Astley,  a  mining  ex- 
pert, that  he  reported  to  the  Haw- 
thorne officers  in  New  York  that  hiy 
examination  of  the  Wilbur  mine 
showed  him  that  the  iron  ore  averaged 
:1.'>  per  cent  and  was  not  present  in  suf- 
ficient quantities  in  any  place  to  mak'^ 
mining  easy  or  profitable. 

A  portion  of  the  "Seay  letter"  to 
Hawthorne  reads: 

"Mr.  Carnegie  paid  a  tribute  to  Mr. 
Schwabs  astuteness  in  acquiring  oro 
properties  in  Canada.  Well,  that  is 
some  distance  away,  and  the  analysis, 
according  to  geological  survey,  is  not 
up   to  the  Wilbur  mine." 

Judge  Gary  is  mentioned  in  the  Seav 
letter  as  testifying  to  the  quality  of 
iron   ore   In   Canada.

sidewalks;  neighbors  neglect  to  do  so. 
For  long  stretches,  the  passable  parts 
of  the  walks  are  nothing  but  narrow 
trails,  and  when  two  people  meet,  ono 
is  forced  to  step  out  into  the  deep 
snow. 

After  a  few  days  the  trails,  ra-s-  d 
in  the  middle,  are  extremely  danger- 
ous and  the  city  is  yearly  forced  to 
face  damage  suit.s  for  injuries  on  ac- 
count of  the  defective  condition  of  the 
walks. 

Other  cities  have  ordinances,  rigidly 
enforced,  requirms  each  property 
owner  to  See  that  the  sidewalks  in 
front  of  his  pfjJlperty  ire  cleared  of 
snow  after 'each* i?i>ow 

The    city  tot    Duhr.  is    claimed, 

needs  a  new  ordinKJn;*.:  to  cover  the 
subject.  The  old  ordinance  was  passed 
in  1892  and  is  far  from  being  what  it 
fJiould  be.  it  does  nut  conform  witli 
the  state  law  and  has  other  features 
which  would  not  stand  analysis  in 
court,  attorneys  claim. 

Attorney  Oscar  Mitchell,  wlien  he 
v/as  city  attorney,  gave  the  council 
an  opinion  on  the  ordinance  which 
covers  the  ground.  As  that  was  in 
1903  his  reference  to  the  new  charter 
means  what  is  called  the  old  charter 
now.  But  the  powers  of  the  city  under 
the  new  charter  are  fully  as  extensive 
as  under  the  present  code  and  the 
f-tat !  law  is  bellaved  to  be  unchanged, 
£.0  that  the  opinion  is  as  pertinent 
now  as  then 

Tl  e    opinion    is    as    follows: 

"Duluth,  Minn..  Jan.   12.   1903. 
*To  the  Honorable  Common  Council  of 

the  City  of  Duluth: 

"Gentlemen:  At  the  request  of  the 
president  of  the  council,  aa  well  as  of 
the  mayor,  I  have  made  a  careful  ui- 
vestlgation  of  the  subject  of  the  re- 
moval of  snow  from  the  sidewalks.  I 
find  the  situation,  and  the  several  steps 
that  may  be  taken  witn  reference 
thereto,  with  such  advantages  and  ob- 
jections as  have  suggested  themselves 
to  me,  as  follows: 

"Our  old  city  charter  contained  a 
clause  giving  speciflc  power  fco  the 
city  to  cause  the  snow  and  ice  to  be 
removed  from  sidewalks  within  any 
part  of  the  city,  and  assessments  to  be 
made   therefor. 

"The  new  charter  does  not  contain 
any  specific  authority  to  fause  assess- 
mehts  to  be  made  against  property  in 
front  of  which  <||fOW  and  ice  are  re- 
moved from  the^sidewalk.  An  ordi- 
nance was  in  Iterce  under  the  old 
charter  providing  fop  such  assessments. 
I  am  informed  bj-  the  board  of  public 
works  that  ho  IBsseasment  was  ever 
made  under  the  ordinance. 

"The  new  charter  contains  a  provision 
authorizing     the     common     council     'to

compel  the  owner  or  occupant  of  any 
premises  to  keep  the  sidewalks  along 
or  in  front  of  the  same  free  from  snow, 
ice  or  other  obstruction.' 

"Chapter  201  of  the  laws  of  1899  of 
the  state  authorizes  the  city  council  of 
cities  of  over  50,000  inhabitants  to 
adopt  an  ordinance,  by  a  five-fifths 
vote,  requiring  sidewalks  along  or  in 
front  of  premises  within  the  fire 
limits  of  such  city  to  be  kept  free 
from  snow  and  ice,  and  to  provide  for 
the  removal  by  the  proper  city  officer 
of  such  snow  and  ice.  and  to  make  an 
assessment  against  the  property  to  pay 
the   same. 

•'The  city  would  doubtless  have  the 
power  to  treat  the  wliole  matter  of  the 
removal  of  snow  and  ice  as  a  matter 
of  maintenance,  to  be  done  by  the 
board  of  public  works  at  the  general 
e.vpense   of  the   city. 

"With  reference  to  these  several 
matters,  the  following  advantages  and 
objections  have  suggested  themselves 
to  me: 

"An  ordinance  could  be  passed  under 
our  present  charter  requiring  the  own- 
ers or  occupants,  within  a  reasonable 
time  after  a  snowfall,  to  clear  the 
snow  In  front  of  their  premises.  The 
failure  to  comply  with  the  ordinance 
could  be  made  a  misdemeanor  and 
punished  by  fine  or  imprisonment. 
There  would  be  no  power,  I  think,  un- 
der the  charter,  to  make  it  a  personal 
claim  against  the  owner  or  occupant, 
or  to  make  it  a  claim  against  his  lot. 

"Unless  such  an  ordinance  should  be 
held  invalid  by  the  courts,  it  could  be 
enforced  as  against  resident  property 
owners  and  as  against  occupants  of 
premises.  It  could  not  be  enforced  as 
against  non-resident  owners  of  vacant 
property  within   the  city. 

"I  am  speaking  now  of  the  legal  pos- 
sibilities. Whether  It  would  be  prac- 
tically possible  to  enforce  such  an 
ordinance  might  be  another  question. 
If  public  sentiment  opposed  the  en- 
forcement of  It,  It  would  be  as  difficult 
to  enforce  from  the  city  attorney's 
office  as  would  be  the  curfew  ordi- 
nance, for  instance.  It  would  probably 
cost  more  to  enforce  It  than  It  would 
cost   to  remove   the  snow. 

"The  provisions  of  the  state  law  are 
entirely  sufficient  for  the  passage  of 
an  ordinance  covering  the  fire  limits. 
There  Is  probably  little  real  necessity 
for  such  an  ordinance  within  those 
limits,  as  that  is  the  main  business 
portion  of  the  city,  and  I  suppose  the 
snow  and  ice  are  removed  within  that 
section. 

"Xn  amendment  might  be  procured 
at  the  present  session  of  the  legislature 
authorizing  the  council  to  fix  the  limits 
within  which  the  ordinance  should  be 
operative.  In  this  city  it  should  prob- 
ably Include  all  of  the  thickly  settled 
residence  and  business  portion  of  the 
city,  but  should  not  include  outlying 
districts. 

"In  reference  to  treating  the  matter 
as  maintenance — if  the  city  were  com- 
pactly built,  this  would  probably  be  the 
most  jjractical  way  that  could  be  sug- 
gested. The  expense  would  then  be 
borne  by  the  general  taxpayer,  and 
would  be  paid  In  proportion  to  the 
other  taxes:  but  the  difficulty  in  a  city 
situated    as    this    is    would    be    in    de- 


termining the  limits  which  should  be 
covered.  If  the  limits  are  to  be  de- 
termined by  the  Ijoard  of  public  works, 
there  would  be  i\.  great  deal  of  com- 
plaint made  to  them  by  people  whose 
premises  were  not  cleaned  of  snow — 
even  thougli  they  are  In  outlying  dis- 
tricts of  the  clt;,'.  If  the  limits  are 
fixed  by  the  courcll.  by  an  ordinance, 
there  would  no  doubt  be  a  great  deal 
of  complaint  made  to  the  members  of 
the  council,  and  many  requests  urging 
the  extension  of  the  limits  Into  out- 
lying districts  tiiat  are  very  thinly 
settled.     RespectfMlIv  submitted,

NORTON  WILL 
STEI^DOWN 

Completes    Six    Years    of 

Service  as  County 

Attorney. 

St.  Louis  County  Leads  State 
in  Percentage  of  Con- 
victions. 


On  Monday,  Jan.  6,  John  H.  Norton 
win  step  out  of  the  office  of  county 
attorn»y  and  Warren  E.  Greene  win 
:^tii)  in.  The  statute  provides  that  the 
county  attorney  shan  assume  the  du- 
ties of  his  office  on  the  first  Monday 
In  January  foHowing  his  election. 
Other  county  officers  take  their  posi- 
tions on  Jan.  2  next  year. 

Mr.  Norton  has  served  in  the  capacity 
of  county  attorney  for  the  past  six 
years.  The  standard  of  effi«iency  of 
the  offlcf  was  raised  during  liis  cd- 
miniytrHtion    so    that   St.    Louis   county 


1910,  the  percentage  of  convictions  was 
87  per  cent  for  St.  Louis  county,  the 
highest  linown  in  the  state.  Last  year 
with  its  heavy  volume  of  business 
showed  St.  Louis  county  leading  in  the 
number  of  convictions  with  86  per  cent. 
This  year's  percentage  is  not  yet  avail- 
able. The  average  percentage  of  con- 
victions throughout  the  state  is  about 
60. 

Last  year,  St.  Louis  county  under 
Mr.  Norton's  administration  was  first 
In  the  percentage  of  successful  prose- 
cutions and  second  only  to  Hennepin 
rou»*y  in  the  volume  of  work  done. 
This  record  was  attained  in  spite  of 
the  fact  that  St.  Louis  county  is  al- 
lowed two"  less  men  as  assistants  in 
the  county  attorney's  office  than  is 
Ramsey  county,  in  which  the  city  of 
St.   Paul   is  located. 

Mr.  Norton  in  speaking  of  the  work 
of  the  office  under  his  administration 
today  insisted  that  while  he  regarded 
with  some  pride  the  high  percentage 
of  successful  prosecutions  that  he  did 
not  consider  so  many  "notclies  in  the 
stick"  a  correct  measure  of.  any  prose- 
cuting  attorney's    success. 

"I  have  always  maintained,"  said  Mr. 
Norton,  "that  the  highest  aim  of  a 
county  attorney  should  be  to  protect 
the  public  from  violations  of  the  law 
and  to  make  hien  instead  of  criminals. 
The  most  successful  public  prosecutor 
is  not  always  the  one  who  makes  the 
best    showing    on    the    records." 

It  is  an  interesting  fact  that  during 
Mr.  Noiton's  term  of  office,  he  has 
handled  about  forty  murder  cases  some 
of    them    famous    ones. 

Mr.  Norton  will  retire  to  his  private 
practice  of  law. 

Warren  E.  Greene,  who  succeeds 
him.  has  had  four  years  of  experience 
in  the  office  under  Mr.  Norton.  He 
was    appointed    in    1908.

Salvation  Army  Distributes  Dinners 
to  Hundreds  of  Poor  People. 

Christmas  is  a  day  of  hard  work  for 
the  officers  and  members  of  tiae  Salva- 
tion Army.  The  same  thing  is  true  of 
Christmas  eve.  All  yesterday  after- 
noon and  evening  the  temporary  quar- 
ters for  the  distribution  of  Christmas 
dinners  to  the  needy,  on  Fourth  ave- 
nue a  short  distance  above  Superior 
strett,  presented  as  busy  a  scene  as  a 
bee-hive.  How  many  dinners  were 
given  out  no  one  knows,  but  it  is  esti- 
mated at  150.  Most  of  those  who  came 
for  the  baskets  of  viands,  the  like  of 
which  they  l;ad  not  tasted  for  a  year, 
were  children.  There  were  also  old 
men,  too  feeble  to  labor,  and  womer, 
carrying  babies.  Those  who  lived  any 
great  distance  wore  given  street  car 
tickets  to  help  them  get  their  heavily 
loaded  baskets   home. 

"The  company  and  its  men  liavp  co- 
operated with  us  with  a  hearty  good- 
-vill,"  said  one  of  the  officials  tod^y. 
"This  morning  we  loaded  seven  big 
baskets  on  one  car  and  there  was 
never  a  murmur  of  complaint  from 
anybody.  I  believe  it  will  be  two  o: 
three  days  before  we  get  all  of  these 
eatables  delivered.  The  contributions 
have  been  unusually  heavy  this  year 
and  we  have  had  more  people  than 
ever  before  looking  up  the  worthy 
poor  for  u<,  and  giving  us  the  neces- 
sary Information.  Even  at  that,  I  do 
not  believe  we  have  r.?ached  more  than 
a  third  of  the  people  whom  we  would 
be  glad  to  help,  if  we  could  find  them. 
You  see  there  are  many  people  who 
are  in  want,  but  who  will  not  make  it 
known,  just  on  account  of  their  pride. 
I  mot  a  man  today,  w^iio  had  been  hurt, 
and  who  did  not  know  where  his  din- 
ner for  today  was  coming  from.  I  tried 
to  get  his  name  but  he  refused  to  tell 
me  that  oi  v/hero  he  liv-d,  although  I 
almost   begged    him    for    the   necessary 


information.  He  said,  he  wanted  to 
get  a  chance  to  saw  a  littte  wood, 
that  he  might  get'  25  cent*  and  have 
something  to  eat  sent  to  liis  home.  I 
do  not  believe  in  such  pride.  Those 
who  need  assistance  should  ask  for  it." 

Sohonlii    Help. 

Sixteen   schools  helped  the  Salvation 

Army    in'gettlng    its    food    ready    this 

year    for    the   Christmas    dinner.      '-Cite, 

children  brcmght  their  contributions 
during  t^e  week  preceding  the*  vaca- 
tion. Their  donations  amount«d  to  sev- 
eral barrels  of  apples,  considerable 
quantities  of  potatoes,  about  a  bushel 
of  oranges  and  a  large  pile  of  canned 
fruits  and  vegetables,  in  addition  to 
miscellaneous  other  things.  Local 
stores  also  made  large  contributions. 
Then  there  was  the  flibriej''  obtained 
by  means  of  the  Christmas  pots,  six  in 
number,  which  were  collecting  money 
for  about  three  weeks  on  various 
street  corners.  No  report  has  yet  been 
made  on  the  full  sum  collected,  but 
the  officers  say  the  people  Rave  been 
very  generous. 

There  were  seven  pots  at  first,  but 
one,  together  with  its  tripod,  was 
stolen  from  the  Army  quarters  about 
two  weeks  ago.  Fortunately  there  was 
no  money  in  it  at  the  time.  No  at- 
tempts at  theft  from  a-ny  of  the  pots 
on  the  street  have  been  reported.  I^st 
year,  when  a  pot  was  left  on  a  street

sons for  the  decision  reached,  chief 
among  which  is  the  fact  that  the  cost 
of  living  Is  higher,  and  also  that  we 
have  a  very  faithful  and  efficient  corps 
of  workers.  It  is  felt  that  recognition 
of  faithful  and  good  servi(re  is  due.

of  expressing  such  appreciation  than  a

jumped  from  third  to  first  place  in  th>.- 
state  in  the  percentage  of  convictions 
secured. 

The  annual  report.'?  for  190S-1:mi3 
showed  Hennepin  county  leading  with 
616  district  court  cases  and  68  in  th*' 
lower  courts.  Ramsey  county  followed 
scond  in  the  total  number  of  cases 
but  dropped  to  third  In  the  number  of 
district  court  cases  handled.  The  fig- 
ures for  the  two  years  combined  are: 
Ramsey  county — District  court  cases, 
286;  lower  courts,  263.  St.  Louis  coun- 
ty— District  court  cases,  354;  lower 
courts.   152. 

In  lUlO.  a  total  of  344  cases  were 
handled  and  during  1911.  478.  The  an- 
nual report  for  this  year  has  not  been 
completed,   but  It  is  intimated  that  the 

frlst   will   not  show   up  to   bo   quite   as 
eavy   as   during  the   year  of   1911.     In 


substantial  increase  in  wages,  that  step 
wtis  determined  upon. 

"Of  all  the  employes,  the  greatest 
number  to  be  benefited  will  be  those 
in  the  steei  mills  in  various  parts  of 
the  country,  for  there  the  bulk  of  em- 
ployes are.  That,  of  course,  is  in  the 
matter  of  numbers  only,  but  all  will 
be  benefited.' 

The  dispatch  from  New  York  follows:  , 
.Ne\r  York,  Dec.  25.— Elbert  H.  Gary,  i 
chairman  of  the  United  States  Steei 
corporation,  has  announced  that  the 
corporation  is  planning  an  adjustment 
of  wage  scales  soon,  which  will  re- 
sult in  material  increases,  particularly 
with  respect  to  wages  paid  unskilled 
laborers.  Within  a  few  days,  he  said, 
the  amount  of  the  increases'  and  the 
day  upon  which  they  will  be  effective 
will  be  determined.  His  statement  fol- 
lows: 

"At  the  meeting  of  presidents  of 
subsidiary  companies  of  the  L'nited 
States  Steel  corporation,  held  last 
Thursday,  It  was  unanimously  voted 
that  there  should  be  made,  in  the  near 
future,  adjustments  of  the  wage  .scales 
which  will  result  in  material  increases, 
particularly  w'ith  respect  to  common 
labor;  and  at  the  meeting  of  the  fi- 
nance committee  held  Tuesday,  it  was 
decided  to  recommend  to  the  presidents 
that  they  make  the  adjustments  pro- 
posed at  such  times  and  in  such 
amounts  as  may   be  determined. 

•'The  exact  amount  of  increases  and 
the  date  at  which  thev  will  go  into 
effect  are  being  eonsi(iered  and  w*ll 
be  determined  within  a  few  days." 

The  proposition  to  readjust  the  wage 
scale,   especially  as  affecting  the  com- 


mon laborers  of  the  corporation,  has 
been  under  di^bate  the  greater  pan  of 
this  year.  Intimations  that  some  in- 
crease would  be  grajited  were  given 
at  the  November  meeting  of  me  sub- 
sidiary presidents. 

Just  what  the  readjustment  implies 
Ln  greater  wage  disbursements,  is,  at 
best,  a  matter  of  conjecture  until  the 
amount  of  the  Increases  becomes  def- 
initely known.  It  Is  understood  that 
not  less  thar;  30,000  laborers  will  be 
benefited,  and  it  is  considered  not  im- 
iJrobable  that  many  other  employes  in 
many  minor  capacities  will  also  share 
in  the  new  scales. 

The  United  States  Steel  corporation 
had  196,888  employes  on  its  rolls  in 
1911.  with  total  annual  salaries  and 
wages   of   $161,419,000.

ALLEGE  MMAGE 

BY  IMPROVEMENT 


Judge's  Lawyers  Say  Crime' 

Is  Necessary  for  an      ' 

Impeachment.  j 

Washington,    Dec.    25. — The    vital    le-  j 
gal   battle  In   the  impeacliment  trial  of  | 
Judge  Robert   W.  Archbald  of  the  com-  j 
nierce    court    opened    when    the    house  j 
managers   and    attorntys    for    the   judge 
submitted  in  printed  form   for  the  .sena- 
tors yesterday,  arguments  as  to  w^helher 
an    official   may    be    impeached    for   acts 
which    are   not    the  subject   of   prosecu- 
tion  by  indictment  or  information   in  a 
criminal    court.      The      arguments      are 
regarded     as     important       because       no 
claim    is    made    in    the    Archbald    case 
that     the      acts      charged       constituted 
crimes   or   misdemeanors   punishable    in 
the    courts.       They    also    discussed    the 
disputed    point    of    whether    an    official 
may    be    impeached    for    acts    done    be- 
f(u-e    he    enteied    upon   his   existing   of- 
fices. 

Claim    of   ManaeerM. 

The  house  managers  in  tlie  impeach-  i 
ment  trial  contended  in  their  brief  I 
that  the  clause  in  the  Constitution  de- 
tining  impeachable  offenses  was  taken 
from  the  British  parliamcntaiy  law, 
established  and  prevailing  at  the  time 
of  the  formation  of  the  American  gov- 
ernment, and  must  be  interpreted,  not 
by  the  light  of  the  common  law  of 
crimes,  but  by  the  light  of  "time- 
honored    parliamentary    usage." 

This  parliamentary  usage,  they  de- 
clared, recognized  "high  crimes  and 
misdemeanors'  to  be  "misdeeds,  mis- 
conduct. Or  misbehavior."  They  quoted 
many  writers  and  referred  to  the 
nrevioup  impeachment  trials  in  the 
I'nited    States    to   sustain    their   ground. 

"It  may  be"  letorted  attorneys  ef 
.Tudge  Aiihbald  in  reply  to  this  argu- 
ment, "that  in  the  early  history  of 
England  cases  will  be  found  in  which 
alleged  political  offenders  v.-ere  le- 
moved  fiom  ofYice  by  being  sent  to  the 
block,  and  having  their  entrails  held 
ui)  before  them  while  they  were  yet 
alive,  but  it  is  assumed  that  the 
learned  managers  In  this  case  will  not 
care  to  rely  upon  proceedings  of  tliat 
kind  as  indicating  what  may  lawfully 
be  done  today  in  the  senate  of  the 
I'nited    States." 

ArK'iment    for    Jnilge. 

The  attorneys  turned  to  the  im- 
peachment provisions  of  the  Constitu- 
tion to  support  their  contention  that 
only  criminal  offenses  were  the  subject 
of    impeachment    proceedings. 

"Why  the  provision  that  the  officer 
convicted  in  an  impeachment  proceed- 
ing shall  still  be  liable  'to  indictment, 
trial  and  punishment  according  to  the 
law.'  if  any  offenses  but  those  punish- 
able by  law  are  intended  to  be  the 
subject  of  impeachment  proceedings?" 
they   inquired. 

"Why,  in  the  pardon  clause  of  the 
Constitution,  is  impeachment  excepted 
from  pardonable  offenses  against  the 
I'nited  States  if  impeachment  was 
deemed  to  be  for  acts  which  are  not 
offensfes  against  the  I'nited  States?" 
they  further  inquii'ed.  "Above  all,  why. 
In  fixing  the  place  of  trial  of  all 
crimes,  is  impeachment  excepted  if 
that  be  not  a  trial  for  a  crime?" 


PLOT  TO  KILL  KING 

OF  ITALY  IS  BARED. 

Rome,  Dec.  25. — The  examination  ot 
Heniy  Dalferro,  a  young  anarcliist  wiio 
recently  attempted  to  comi.TTt  suicivle 
rather  than  carry  out  a  mission  im- 
posed upon  him  by  the  anarciiists  to 
as.^assinate  King  "V'ictor  Emmanuel, 
was  held  yesterday.  It  revealed  the 
existence  of  a  deep  lai<i  plot  to  kilt  1 
the  king.  Five  other  anarchists  have 
been  arrested  for  alleged  complicity  in 
the  plot. 


Property  Owners  Sue  as 

Result  of  Change  of  St. 

Croix  Avenue  Grade. 

irsually  improvements  such  as  street 
gratling  and  sidewalk  building  Increase 
values  of  abutting  property,  but  in 
five  lawsuits  filed  in  district  court 
yesterday  against  the  city  the  claim 
is  made  that  the  improvements  have 
depreciated  values. 

The  city  in  1893  graded  that  part  of 
8t.  Croix  a\  enue  v.liicli  ))asses  through 
block  1  of  Industrial  division.  In  1909 
the  gtniie  was  re-established  by  be- 
ing raiscii  sixteen  Indus.  Two  years 
later  filling  and  grading  up  to  the 
new    prrride    was    done. 

Nicholas  Christopher,  Ootfried  Ein- 
an,  Elias  Nelson,  JIartin  Roske,  Daniel 
Cole  and  Mike  .Vissala.  property  own- 
ers, are  suing  the  <  ity  to  collect  dam- 
siges.  The  claim  is  made  that  the  rais- 
ing of  the  grade  brought  the  property

SPOKANE  BARS 

SWEATED  ORANGES. 

Spokane,   Wash.,   Dec.   25. — Following 
a  series  of  tests  in  the  city  laboratory 
of  oranges  offered  for  sale  in  Spokane, 
Health   Officer  .1.  B.  Anderson  has  pro- 
liibited  the  sale  of  all  oranges  in  which 
the    ratio   of    sugar   to   citrous    acid    is  | 
not  seven  to  one  or  greater.     Tliis  rtil-  ' 
ing    is    directed    against    fruit    shipped  ! 
green  from  the  orchards  and  allowed  to 
ripen  en   route  or   ripened  by  artifici.al 
means  such  as  "sweating."     It  will  bar 
from     Spokane     markets     most     of     the 
orange   shipments   received   In   Novem- 
ber   or    earlier    and    some    of    the    De- 
cember shipments. 

« 

If  you  are  "easily  satisfied"  with 
your  boarding  place,  it  will  not  be  long 
before  nothing  else  will  matter  much, 
either.

''WHERE  VALUES  REIGN  SUPREME" 
21  and  23  WEST  SUPERIOR  STREET 


'I 


Christmas  day  dawned  at  the  police 
station  with  some  fifteen  kindred 
spirits  in  the  big  jail  wondering  what 
kind  of  packages  Santa  Clatis,  in  the 
person  of  the  judge,  would  hand  to 
them. 

Various  charges  were  credited  to 
them  on  the  blotter.  One  was  in  for 
the  alleg-ed  theft  of  a  grip,  a  second 
for  disorderly  conduct,  a  couple  for 
fighting  and  the  otiiers  for  having- 
been  so  indiscreet  as  to  have  imbibed 
more  Christmas  cheer  than  they  could 
carry    without     assistance. 

The  awakening  was  rather  a  happy 
one  for  Matt  Voung,  a  laborer,  when 
ho  learned  that  he  had  $11S  in  good 
and  lawful  money  of  the  United  States 
coming  to  him.  He  was  picked  up  in 
a  snowbank  in  a  dead  stupor.  He 
cheerfully  paid  the  assessment  of  %\ 
und   costs. 

•John  Donovan  was  so  pleased  at  re- 
'  eiving  a  suspended  sentence  that  he 
told  Jailer  .lack  Hunter  that  ins  true 
name  is  Derry.  For  years  he  has  been 
sailing  under  the  flag  of  Donovan.  He 
pleaded  for  an  opportunity  to  get  to 
his  job  and  the  judge  told  Ijim  to  hike 
but  to  be  careful  not  to  fall  bv  the 
wayside.  That's  one  of  .John's  failings, 
as  amply  testified  by  the  frequency 
with  which  his  name  appears  on  t' 
records.

C.  E.  THORNTONS  liniE 
CHRISTMAS  BOUQUET 


Mr.  and  Mrs.  C.  E.  Thornton  arrived 
this  morning  from  Winnipeg  to  spend 
Christmas  and  the  rest  of  the  week 
witli  Mr.  and  Mrs.  C.  E.  Judd,  Mrs. 
Thornton's  parents.  Mr.  Thornton  is  a 
former  Duluth  business  man,  but  left 
here  some  time  ago  to  enter  the  grain 
business  in  the  Manitoba  capital.  He 
says  it  is  the  greatest  place  ever,  but 
confesses  to  one  source  of  loneliness. 
He  says  that  the  Winnipeg  newspapers 
do  not  equal  The  Herald  in  any  par- 
ticular. He  suggests  that  they  ex- 
change with  this  paper  and  "get  wise." 

"I  may  be  prejudiced,"^  said  Mr. 
Thornton,  "but  I  must  say  tliat  The 
Herald  'has  it  on'  most  papers  that  I 
see,  and  the  Winnipeg  papers  fail  to 
get  the  snap  that  Duluth's  evening 
paper  has.  I  like  the  makeup  better 
than  that  of  any  paper  except  the  Chi- 
cago Tribune,  and  I  like  the  way  tlie 
news  Is  written  in  The  Herald.  I  get 
awfully  lonesome  for   it  at   times." 

Mr.  Thornton  has  served  his  time  in 
tlie    printing    game    himself.

FIRSfCASE 
FOR  JAG  FARM 


Judge  of  Probate  S.  W.  Gilpin  has 
under  consideration  his  first  com- 
mitment to  the  state  Jag  farm  at  WIU- 
mar,  Minn.  The  farm  will  be  officially 
opened  tomorrow. 

Yesterday  afternoon  a  Polk  county 
resident  was  brought  into  court  and 
an  examination  as  to  his  alleged  fn- 
ebriacy  was  conducted  before  the  court 
by  County  Attorney  John   H.  Norton. 

Until  the  state  board  of  control 
passes  upon  the  case,  no  further  action 
will  bt  had,  according  to  the  court. 
The  board  will  say  whether  or  not  he 
will    be  committed. 

The  man  who  was  examined  is  a  den- 
tist who  has  for  years  been  addicted 
to  the  heavy  use  of  liquor.  If  he  is 
committed,  he  will  probably  be  credit- 
ed to  Polk  county. 

Under  the  rule  of  the  state  board, 
no  county  can  have  any  more  than 
five  inmates  at  the  farm  at  the  same 
time. 


THE  BIGGEST  BANNER. 
"V^'ide  World:  In  -the  city  of  Los 
Angeles.  Cal.,  there  recently  took  place 
a  reriiarkable  procession.  An  army  of 
stalwart  Americans  bore  with  proud 
triumph  an  immense  U.  S.  A.  flag, 
measuring  one  hundred  feet  long  by 
forty  feet  wide.  This  flag  has  a  won- 
derful history,  for  It  was  made  in 
memory  of  the  brave  soldiers  who  en- 
listed at  the  time  of  the  Spanish-Amer- 
ican war.  The  flag  has  a  stitch  for 
every  man  who  so  enlisted,  and  is  prob- 
ably the  largest  banner  of  its  kind  in 
the     world.

<  Tho  rt>al  old  flavor  of  OhriPtmas 
spirit  was  Kiven  an  inning;  at  Hunt- 
er's Park  last  niKlit  w  lu-n  about 
twenty-flve  people  of  both  sexes 
carolled  along  the  sstreets  and  before 
the  residences. 

It  is  said  out  there  that  this  Is  a 
custom  of  many  years  standing-.  At  any 
rale  tliose  comparatively  strange  to 
the  park  who  happened  to  be  out  tliere 
last  niffht  heard  good  old  English 
songs  such  as  the  earollers  of  tht- 
tight  little  island  sing  each  Christmas 
eye,  and  the  singi)ig  v^as  of  unusually 
liigh  order  l-'or  some  reason  even 
those  who  are  not  English  and  with 
whom  <arolling  is  not  associated  witli 
eld  and  fond  memories,  felt  u  senti- 
mental tightening  of  the  throat.  The 
singing  seeoied  to  fit  the  occasion 
homeliow.  they  felt.  The  atmosphere 
was  •Christmassy"  to  begin  with  and 
the  excellent  voices  of  the  singers  as 
well  as  the  unison  with  which  they 
carolled   gave  it  the  right   touch. 

W.  J.  McCabe,  who  lives  at  Hunter's 
Park,  and  who  is  accustomed  to  the 
carolling  of  Christmas  eve,  said  today 
that  the  rendition  of  "Hark  the  Her- 
ald Angels  Sing"  was  one  of  the  finest 
things  he  has  e\  or  lieard.  The  singers 
carried  lanterns  with  them  so  that 
they  could  see  where  to  walk,  and 
they  visited  all  neighborhoods  in  that 
section  of  the  city.  They  sang  as  they 
walked  along  the  streets  and  stopped 
in  iront  of  each  residence  and  carolled 
a  serenade.  Other  old-time  carols  they 
gave    were: 

"Holy  \ight."  "T  Saw  the  Ships  Com'? 
Sailing  In."  "Carol,  Brothers,  Carol." 
and  "(Jod  BKss  You  Met  ry  Gentlemen.'

cidal    weapons,    he    li

A  wonderful  knife  with  two  blades 
completed  the  equipment.  Total  ex- 
penditure to  date,  some  |2  or  more. 
Jimmie  had  brought  along  a  battered 
hand  sled,  one  of  these  nondescript 
sleds  that  are  found  on  the  ashpile  In 
the  summer  time. 

With  careful  buying,  |3  will  go  a 
long  ways  in  a  grocery  store  The 
gro<er  was  geneious  with  his  meas- 
ures, and  the  sled  had  a  pretty  good 
load  by  the  time  it  left  the  grocery 
store  and  started  back  for  the  lake 
shore,  bumping  into  Jimmie's  tslim. 
little  legs. 

Still  Jimmie  presented  an  impregna- 
ble surface  to  the  world.  t.'hristmas 
shopping  mlgbt  liave  been  an  everv- 
day  occurrence  with  him,  and  he  looked 
rather  bored  than  pleased. 

J|mnil«>*M  FeeliOKH, 

AVlien  the  house  was  reached  Jimmie 
was  missed.  The  sled  was  there  with 
its  load  of  groceries,  but  the  tool  c-hest 
and  Jimmie  were  gone  in  the  dark- 
ness. There  was  a  sound  of  little  feel 
cla^ttering   up   the   rickety   stairs. 

•'Ma-a-a"  came  the  long-drawn-out 
cry,  in  a  shrill,  boyl.sh  treble.  "Ma-a-a, 
look."  Those  two  words  told  Jimmies 
feelings  on  the  tool  chest  question 
fully  and  completely.  Jimmie  knew 
what  he  wanted,  all  right.  The  tired- 
eyed  woman  was  grateful.  She  said  it 
as  if  she  meant  it,  too,  and  there  was 
quite  a  cheerful  tone  to  the  old  famil- 
iar "Merry  Christmas."  She  reck<med 
she  could  use  some  coal,  too,  and  she 
will  get  it. 

Other  Case*. 

Then  there  was  the  widow  out  be- 
side the  point  of  rocks,  and  the  five 
little  motlierless  kids  out  in  West  Du- 
luth. 

But,  what's  the  use?  You  other  Good 
Fellows  know  all  about  it,  whether  vou 
followed  your  ideals  of  good  fellow- 
ship in  Tiie  Herald's  corps,  or  as  a  free 
lance.  Vour  stories  might  have  some 
variations,  but  they  are  the  same  in 
the  main.  Perhaps  you  found  an  unde- 
serving ( ase,  and  one  that  rather  threw 
a  cold  damper  on  your  enthusiasm. 
Perhaps  the  greed  and  chronic  begging 
disposition  of  the  •  objects  of  vour 
ciiri.stmas  giving  rather  disgusted  "you. 
There  were  such  cases — plenty  of  them. 
But  if  you  found  a  real  case  It  paid 
you  for  all  the  others,  didn't  It? 

The  ones  wlio  missed  it  were  the 
ones  who  stayed  home  beside  a  <  om- 
fortable  fire  and  smoked  too  much  or 
ate  too  much,  or  read  loo  much.  :May- 
be  they  gave  money  toward  some  de- 
serving charity.  It  thev  did,  every- 
body concerned  but  then|relves  bene- 
fited by  it.  They  we^^  the  onlv  losers 
They  missed  the  rear  Tun  Of  Christmas. 
Olving;  an  Aoeou^it. 

But  the  Good  Fellow  Editor  has  to 
Kive  an  account  of  his  stewardship, 
rhat  was  the  Intention  of  this  article, 
but  he  seems  to  have  wandered.  There 
were  more  than  JOO  names  given  out 
to  Good  Fellows.  The.«e  names  were 
secured  in  many  ways,  and  each  name 
represented  a  family,  perhaps  two  peo- 
ple, or  perhaps  ten.  Many  of  them 
were  sent  In  on  the  Good  Fellow  cou- 
pons published  in  The  Herald  Some 
were  reported  to  The  Herald  by  tele- 
phone, and  the  rest  were  secured  from 
the  Associated  Charities  list.".  Every 
name  was  investigated  before  it  was 
given  out  to  a  Good  Fellow.  The  in- 
vestigations Avere  made  chiefly  by  the 
AsJ'ociated  Charities  workers. 

On  Tufsday  night  at  6  o'clock  there 
were  just  iweniy  names  on  hand  that 
had  not  been  taken  care  of.  The  Good 
bellow  Editor  was  In  something  of  a 
quandary.  He  knew  he  could  not  cover 
all  the  ground  before  mldrleht,  and  he 
had  little  monev  on  hand  e.xcept  part 
of  an  emergency  appropriation  ihat 
The  Herald  had  made  for  him. 
The  Twent.T-Uoliar  Bill. 

At  6  o'dook  one  of  Duluth's  best 
known  business  men  walked  into  the 
ofrl.  e  and  peeled  a  $20  bill  from  a  com- 
fortably-sized roll.  He  is  a  gruff  man 
in  his  l)u.slness  dealings,  and  one  who.se 
name  never  appears  publicly  in  the 
lists  of  givers  lo  charities,  although 
the  Good  Fellow  Editor  had  long  sus- 
pected that  he  had  a  list  of  pensioners 
whom   he  aided  in   a  quiet  way. 

"^ou  always  need  some  money  at  the 
of  these  things,"  he  said,  laving 
the  120  bill,  and  walking  out. 
after  refusing  a  receipt,  and  wishing 
the  Good  Fellow  Editor  a  merry  Christ- 
mas.  ^ 

Save«l  ifev-tla|-. 

That  $20  bill  saved  the  dav.  There 
was  a  little  batch  of  families  In  West 
Duluth  whom  a  West  Duluth  merchant 
agreed  to  take  care  of  personallv,  and 
he  was  given  an  appropriation  of  $10 
to  buy  toys  for  these  children.  He 
promised  to  make  the  selection  hlms*^lf 
and  deliver  the  goods  before  midnight 
■That  wiped  the  West  Duluth  cases  off 
the  slate. 

A  friend  of  the  Good  Fellow  Editor 
agreed  to  take  care  of  three  families 
m  the  W^est  end.  Another  member  of 
ihe  Herald  force  consented  to  take 
t  iree^more  in  the  hiUisde  district,  and 
the  Good  Fellow  Editor  started  out 
with  the  rest  of  the  name.s.  the  balance 
of  the  money  and  a  good  friend  who 
owned  an  automobile  that  could  get 
through   the   snowbanks. 

Jimrnie,  whom  you  have  just  read 
f.'jo^t'  was  one  of  the  names  on  the 
list.      We    "plunged'-    on    Jimmie. 

But  it  did  the  trick.  The  Good  Fel- 
lows started  out  with  the  slogan: 
■  iNot  an  empty  stocking  in  Duluth  on 
Christmas  morning.''  Maybe  there  were 
.some.  Probably  there  were,  but  we 
didn  t  know  about  them,  and  the  Good 
Fellows  did  their  duty.  And  it  was 
all  done  with  less  than  $50  in  cash  ex- 
clusive of  the  appropriation  allowed 
the  Good  I- ellow  Editor.  With  tlie  ex- 
ception of  the  $20,  it  came  in  smaU 
amounts,  mostly  anonymous. 

It  would  have  been  better  if  the  .sum 
had  been  smaller,  for  those  who  simply 
gave  money  were  cheated.  They  missed 
the  fun  they  had  coming,  but  the  Good 
Fellow  Editor  should  be  the  last  one 
to  kick.  He  had  the  exquisite  jov  of 
spending  somebody  el.ses  money  in  the 
way  It  would  do  the  most  good,  in  his 
opinion.  It  there  is  any  better  fun 
than  spending  money.  It  is  spending 
somebody  else  s  monev  for  youngsters 
who  never  suspected  the  existence  of  a 
banta  Claus. 

Paid   in  Full. 

ihe  Good  Fellows  don't  want  anv 
credit  for  what  they  did.  They  are 
paid  m  full  already,  and  everything 
connected  with  the  movement  was 
ancnymou.<?.  But  a  word  of  thanks  is 
due  the  Associated  Charities  workers 
not  because  they  want  it  for  them- 
.selyes,  but  because  they  should  have 
'.  .1  ^^  ^^^^  society  they  represent.  Mr 
1  nwlddie.  Miss  Meeker,  Miss  Hicks 
and  Miss  .Sullivan  have  been  on  the 
.lob  constantly  for  two  weeks  or  more 
working  not  by  the  clock,  but  by  the 
amount  of  work  to  be  done.  The  move- 
ment would  have  been  a  failure  if 
had  not  been  for  them.  Thev  have 
clhties  for  Investigating  cases  that  the 
Good  Fellow  Editor  dW  no«  have.  Their 
lists  of  the  poor  fai«inies  of  the  citv 
are  cornplete.  and  they  car  tell  almost 
Instantly  from  their  records  whelher 
the  family  Is  deserving  erf  aid  or  not.

CHINA  DECLINES  NEW 
PACT  WITH  ENGLAND 

Replies    Courteously    But 
Firmly  to  British  Sug- 
gestions. 

Pekin,  Dec.  25. — China's  reply  to  the 
recent  note  of  Great  Brita'n  calling 
upon  China  to  come  to  an  agreement 
with  her  regarding  Tibet,  is  courteous 
in  tone,  but  firmly  declines  to  negoti- 
ate a  new  treaty.  It  cites  the  Anglo- 
Tibetan  agreement  of  1908,  under 
which  Great  Britain  agreed  not  to  in- 
terfere with  the  administration  of  Ti- 
bet or  annex  her  territory,  China  un- 
dertaking to  prevent  other  nations 
from  doing  the  same.  It  points  out 
tliat  the  agreement  also  provided  that 
China  must  police  the  trade  routes  in 
Tibet  and  protect  communications. 

The  note  insists  that  China  has  prop- 
erly regarded  all  her  obligations.  Chi- 
na has  found  It  necessary,  It  says,  to 
send  large  numbers  of  troops  Into  Ti- 
bet to  do  police  duty,  but  the  Chinese 
government  sees  no  Tiecesslty  for  Gres.t 
Britain  to  send  troops  there  from  In- 
dia. It  explains  that  it  Is  as  much  to 
the  interest  of  China  as  England  to 
maintain   the   present   status  in  Tibet. 

Regret  Is  expressed  in  the  note  that 
the  Indian  government  should  close  all 
the  roads  between  China  and  Tibet  by 
way  of  India,  declaring  that  such  an 
act  Is  rarely  resorted  to,  except  be- 
tween nations  at  war.  It  regrets 
Great  Britain's  threat  not  to  recognize 
the  new  Chinese  republic,  saying  that 
recognition  would  be  mutually  advan- 
tageous.

Albany.  N.  Y..  Dec.  25. — The  states 
most  affected  by  the  problem  of  the 
alien  Insane  have  accepted  an  invita- 
tion to  co-operate  with  New  York  in 
an  effort  to  induce  congress  to  enact 
legislation  designed  to  relieve  the 
states  of  the  burden  of  caring  for  the 
mental  defectives  admitted  to  this 
country,  according  to  a  statement  by 
Governor   Di\'. 

A  meeting  to  consider  the  proposed 
legislation  will  be  called  by  Dr.

PERJURY  IN  THE 

CAMPBELL  CASE 

Chicago  Postmaster's  Ac- 
cusers;  Make   Public 
Apology  to  Him. 

Chicago,  r>ec.  25. — Perjury  in  the 
testimony  ajcainst  Postmaster  D.  A. 
Campbell  of  Chicago,  who  has  just 
been  investifrated  by  a  Federal  com- 
mission on  cliarges  of  improper  polit- 
ical activity,  has  been  made  known 
in  a  statement  by  the  investigators. 
The  investigf  tion  had  been  ended,  and 
the  results  were  aliout  to  be  sub- 
mitted to  the  civil  service  commission 
in  ^Yashingt<n. 

The  surprise  was  sprung  in  the  case 
when  AVllliari  K.  Todd,  the  chief  wit- 
ness against  Mr.  Campbell,  confessed 
to  the  trial  bi>ard  and  to  the  Civil  Serv- 
ice Reform  association,  which  brought 
the  charges  against  Campbell,  that  he 
had  perjured  himself.  Todd  is  a  negro. 
He  had  testif  ed  that  Mr.  Campbell  had 
given  money  to  three  postoffice  em- 
ployes to  be  used  at  election  time  in 
a   negro    Rep  iblican    club. 

Todd  was  employed  as  investigator 
by  the  Civil  Service  Reform  associa- 
tion. As  his  charges  formed  the  chief 
part  of  the  feature  of  the  case  against 
Mr.  Campbell,  the  case  is  declared  to 
have  collapsed.  Robert  Catherwood, 
president  of  the  reform  association, 
has  made  puHic  an  apologv  to  the  Fed- 
eral investigiitors  and  to  Mr.  Campbell 
for  having  procured  the  testlmonv  of 
Todd  under  the  impression  that  it  was 
truthful.

PURSER  ARRESTED 

FOR  GOLD  THEFT. 

Seattle,  Wj.sh.,  Dec.  25. — Glen  Shep- 
ard,  purser  of  the  steamer  Jefferson, 
has  been  arrested,  charged  with  bring- 
ing Into  the  state  157,000  of  Alaskan

Therefore  the  Lord  himself  shall  give  you  a  sign:  Behold,  a  virgin

Isaiah  vii:  14.

But  thou,  Bethlehem  Ephratah.  though  thou  be  little  among  the

The  spirit  of  the  Lord  God  is  upon  me;  because  the  Lord  hath

THE   FULFILLMENT. 

And  she  brought  forth  her  first-born  son,  and  wrapped  him  in 
swaddUng  clothes,  and  laid  him  in  a  manger;  because  there  was  no 
room  for  them  in  the  inn. 

And  there  were  in  the  same  country  shepherds  abiding  in  the 
field,  keeping  watch  over  their  flock  by  night. 

And,  lo,  the  angel  of  the  Lord  came  upon  them,  and  the  glory  of 
the  Lord  shone  round  about  them;  and  they  were  sore  afraid. 

And  the  angel  said  unto  them:  "Fear  not;  for  behold,  I  bring 
you  good  tidings  of  great  joy,  which  shall  be  to  all  people. 

"For  unto  you  is  born  this  day  in  the  city  of  David  a  Savior,  which 
is  Christ  the  Lord. 

"And  this  shall  be  a  sign  unto  you:  Ye  shall  find  the  babe  wrapped 
in  swaddUng  clothes,  lying  in  a  manger." 

And  suddenly  there  was  with  the  angel  a  multitude  of  the  heaven- 
ly host  praising  God  and  saying, 

"GLORY  TO  GOD  IN  THE  HIGHEST,  AND  ON  EARTH 
PEACE,  GOOD  WILL  TOWARD  MEN." 

And  it  came  to  pass,  as  the  angels  were  gone  away  from  them 
into  heaven,  the  shepherds  said  one  to  another,  "Let  us  now  go  even 
unto  Bethlehem,  and  see  this  thipg  that  has  come  to  pass,  which  the 
Lord  hath  made  known  to  us." 

And  they  came  with  haste,  and  found  Mary,  and  Joseph,  and  the 
Babe  lying  in  a  manger. 

And  when  they  had  seen  it,  they  made  known  abroad  the  saymg 
which  was  told  them  concerning  this  child. 

And  all  they  that  heard  it  wondered  at  those  things  which  were 
told  them  by  the  shepherds. 

But  Mary  kept  all  these  things,  and  pondered  them  in  her  heart. 

And  the  shepherds  returned,  glorifying  and  praising  God  for  all 
the  things  that  they  had  heard  and  seen,  as  it  was  told  unto  them. — 
Luke  ii:  7-20.

And  what  does  it  profit  anybody— 
this  ceaseless,  remorseless  struggle 
for  personal  advantage  through  the 
rest  of  the  year?  True,  many  are 
successful  in  it,  and  surround  them- 
selves with  wealth  and  power;  but 
the  victory  in  such  a  contest  is  a  bit- 
ter taste  in  the  mouth  that  often  sets 
on  edge  the  teeth  of  the  second  and 
third  generations.  It  is  conquest, 
without  remorse  or  pity.  Those  wh-^ 
rise  in  it  rise  by  setting  their  heels 
in  the  faces  of  those  who  fail  to  rise. 
The  glory  of  victory  is  spotted  by  the 
tears  and  hhiod  drops  of  the  van- 
quished. 

In  all  tlic  world,  and  in  all  the  his- 
tory of  the  world,  only  those  who 
have  fuuarlit  for  others  have  won  vic- 
tories that  broui'ht  the  balm  of  peace

DULUTH'S  GREATEST  CHRISTMAS. 

There  seems  to  be  no  dissenting 
voice  to  this  highly  interesting  and 
important  proposition: 

This  has  been  Duluth's  greatest  and 
mosf  prosperous  Christmas  season. 

Every  store  in  the  city,  so  far  as 
we  have  heard,  reports  the  largest 
Christmas  business  in  its  history. 

The  stocks  were  full  and  elaborate 
as  never  before,  and  they  have  been 
exhausted  by  buying  as  never  before. 

More    money    has    been    spent 
Christmas    in    Duluth   this   year 
in  any  previous  jear. 

What  interests  us  chiefly  about  this 
is  the  signit'icant  showing  it  makes 
for  Duluth's  present  prosperity. 

Duluth  is  a  prosperous,  fully  em- 
ployed, well  paid  and  thriving  com- 
munity. If  it  were  not,  it  could  not 
have  made  this  record. 

We  submit  the  facts  for  the  con- 
sideration of  whoever  there  may  Ue — 
if  there  be  any  such,  indeed  —  who 
have  doubt  about  Duluth's  present 
prosperity  or  its  future  promise.

the  elimination  of  the  highway  as  a 
breeding  place  for  weeds.  The  whole

Those  who  forget  self  find  the  only 
lce3'  to  happiness.  Those  who  seek 
the  well  being  of  others  are  the  only 
ones  to  learn  the  meaning  of  con- 
tentment and  peace  of  mind.  It  is  a 
curious  thing  that  those  who  seek 
happiness  for  their  own  sake  seldom 
fnd  it;  while  those  who  seek  hap- 
piness for  others  always  find  it  for 
themselves. 

The  man  who  is  pilloried  by 
privilege  for  his  devotion  to  the  com- 
mon good  dies  happier  than  the  rich 
beneficiary  of  privilege,  surrounded 
by  his  wealth  which  he  must  leave 
behind. 

If  just  a  gleam  of  the  Christ  spirit 
■which  is  all-pervading  at  Christmas 
time  would  continue  with  us  through 
the  year,  if  just  a  touch  of  the  un- 
selfishness of  the 
could  inspire  tis 
Christmas  season, 
and  happier  and 
v/ould  be! 

That  this  gleam  may  be  with  us 
long,  and  that  the  lamp  of  unselfish- 
ness may  light  the  footsteps  of  us  all 
to  the  pathway  of  peace,  is  The  Her- 
ald's best  wish  for  its  readers  on  th:s 
day. 

And  the  spirit  of  youth — that's  an- 
other glory  of  Christmas.  Youth  and 
its  innocence  and  faith  are  regnant  at 
Christmas  time,  and  the  world  needs 
these  lights  always.  It  is  not  right  to 
let  the  years  -quench  them.  May 
these,  too.  abide  with  us  all  through 
all  the  year  and  through  all  time.

NARROWER  ROADWAYS. 

the  Agricultural  Magazine, 
through  the  enterprise  of  the 
department  of  agriculture  of  the  state 
university  is  issued  as  a  supplement 
to  a  large  number  of  country  week- 
lies in  Minnesota,  we  note  a  well  rea- 
soned argument  for  narrower  road- 
ways in  Minnesota. 

This  proposal  is  particularly  inter- 
esting to  us  because  at  the  last  ses- 
sion of  the  legislature  The  Herald 
gave  support  to  a  measure  offered  by 
Representative  Joseph  R.  Keefe  of 
Redwood  providing  for  this  very 
thing. 

The  law  now  requires  roadways  to 
be  four  rods  wide,  or  sixty-six  feet — 
the  full  width  of  a  city  street.  Coun- 
ty boards  have  the  authority  to  make 
it  a  hundred  feet  if  they  please,  and 
in  some  cases  they  have  done  so. 

This  practice  seems  to  be  a  sur- 1 
vival  of  the  time  when  land  was  "dirt 
cheap"  and  when  roads  were  im- 
proved in  one  part  as  much — or  as 
little — as  they  were  in  another,  so 
that  a  wide  roadway  v.-as  needed  in 
order  that  teamsters  might  w-eave 
their  way  through  the  soundest  parts. 
There  is  no  need  of  it  now,  and  it  is 
a  wicked  waste  of  land  and  of  road 
money. 

The  Agricultural  Magazine  says  that 
"'there  is  rarely  any  necessity  for  al- 
lowing a  greater  breadth  than  twen- 
ty-five feet  for  the  entire  strip  oc- 
cupied by  any  county  road  in  Minne- 
sota, ditches  included.  In  the  resi- 
dence districts  of  many  of  our  great 
cities,  where  from  fifty  to  a  hundred 
feet  was  formerly  given  up  to  a 
broad,  unsightly  expanse  of  pave- 
ment, the  pavements  that  covered 
much  of  the  width  have  been  torn  up 
and  replaced  by  grass,  leaving  a 
roadway  for  vehicles  often  only  twen- 
ty feet  wide.  This  is  found  ample 
for  all  the  traffic." 

By  cutting  down  the  legal  roadway 
from  sixty-six  feet  to  twenty-five, 
there  will  be  a  saving  of  nearly  five 


THE  SPUGS. 

The  Society  for  the  Prevention  of 
Useless  Giving — flippantly  shortened 
to  "Spugs" — has  made  something  of 
an  impression  in  the  holiday  season, 
though  not  always  a  serious  one. 

The  New  York  Evening  Post,  for 
instance,  makes  merry  with,  it  and 
proposes  the  creation  of  a  "Society 
for  the  Prevention  pf  Useless  Organ- 
izations." 

The  Outlook,  on  the  other  hand, 
tells  us  that  the  Spugs  have  not 
been  treated  with  due  sobriety,  and 
that  really  their  purpose  is  practical 
and  good. 

And  what  the  Outlook  tells  us  about 
the  society  tends  to  create  a  better 
impression  of  it  than  one  would  get 
if  he  belie\  ed  it  to  be  merely  another 
of  the  vast  accumulation  of  organi- 
zations for  minding  other  people's 
business  and  regulating  other  peo- 
ple's habits. 

It  appears  that  the  occasion  for 
the  formation  of  the  society  was  the 
abuse  of  gift  subscriptions  in  'many 
large  business  concerns.  Lists  are 
circulated  for  gifts  to  petty  heads  of 
departments,  and  in  manj'  cases  the 
effect  is  oppressive.  Still,  it  is  hard, 
if  not  impossible,  to  evade  it.  The 
case  is  mentioned  of  a  young  woman 
in  a  department  store  working  on  a 
wage  of  twelve  dollars  a  week,  who 
had  been  compelled  to  contribu^'C 
seventy-five  dollars  to  buy  Christmas 
presents  for  those  in  authority  over 
her. 

This  practice  is  well  worth  form- 
ing a  society  to  combat.  Besides,  un- 
questionably^ Christmas  giving  has 
expanded  into  extravagance  in  many 
cases,  and  agitation  that  will  make 
Christmas  presents 
and  economical  may 
while. 

On  the  whole,  we  doubt 
Spugs  have  formed  a  useless 
ization.

ander Hamilton,  was  denied  the  place

Gen.  Taylor  was 
a  single-mindlii,  absolutely  chaste  man 
wltli  the  severe  morals  of  a  consistent 
and  sincere  Christian  gentleman,  and 
he  let  Mr.  Webster  know.  In  most  em- 
phatic terms,  that  no  such  man  as 
George  Kvans  should  advi.se  him  as  an 
official  counsellor,  and  that  was  the 
end  of  it.  Until  1854  Mame  was  a  re- 
liably Hemocratic  state,  due,  perhaps, 
to  the  fact  that  after  a  bitter  quarrel 
she  had  accomplished  a  successful  .se- 
cession from  Massachusetts,  a  com- 
monwealth that  was  traditionally  Fed- 
eralist and  safely  Whig.  But  Evan.s' 
transcendent  abilities  would  not  be  de- 
nied, and  for  twenty  years,  as  repre- 
sentative or  eenator,  he  was  in  the 
front  rank  of  the  elite  ttf  congresses 
made  illustrious  by  Clay,  Calhoun  and 
Webster.  Little  old  Maine  held  the 
center  of  our  parliamentary  stage  for 
seventy  years — 182H  to  1899 — witli  those 
giants,  Evans,  Fessonden,  Blaine  and 
Reed,  no  one  of  whom  was  a  Democrat, 
though  from  1829  to  1854  Maine  was 
a  Democratic  state,  except  in  1840, 
when  she  "went  hell-bent  for  Governor 
Kent." 

Evan.s  left  the  national  stage  In 
1848,  though  subsequently  he  was  at- 
torney general  of  Maine.  He  died  in 
1867  when  only  70  years  old,  and  though 
his  was  a  giant  mind  and'hls  a  mag- 
nificent genius,  we  hear  not  a  word 
from  him  in  the  national  theater  dur- 
ing the  war  of  1861-65,  and  it  was  an 
epoch    not    ve^?5*^trong   on   morals    and 

very    weak    on    decency   at    that.

that  our  old  world  is  also  getting  bet-

shoultl  'ware  the  bottle.  One  drink

not  half  enough.  And  if  you  must 
drink,  choose  Kentucky  Bourbon,  and 
take  it  in  grog,  standing  up  at  the  bar. 
If  you  sit  at  a  table  you  are  lost.  A 
mixed  drink  is  an  abomination.  Get 
out  of  the  saloon  as  soon  as  you  swal- 
low your  grog  and  a  pinch  of  the  free 
luncli  to  hold  it  down.  And  if  you  have 
got  the  nerve,  don't  treat,  or  be  treated. 
It  will  be  a  far  step  in  the  way  of  re- 
form when  we  shall  have  the  tlpless 
tavern    and    the    treatless    saloon. 

Not  even  a  genius — and  only  such 
should  be  allQ^t'd  to  drink — can  get 
along  in  our  da>  if  He  burn  the  candle 
at  both  ends.  Neither  George  Evans 
nor  Stephen  -A.  pouglas — and  there  is 
nobody  at  present  in  either  house  of 
congress  to  compare  with  either  of 
them — would  be  tolerated  in  public  life 
in  1912 — unless,  like  Franklin  Pierce, 
he  mended  his  habits.

William  Pitt  the  younger,  was  prime 
minister  of  England  longer  than  any 
other  man,  unless  Sir  Robert  Walpole 
was  an  exception,  and  it  is  doubtful 
if,  during  the  entire  period  of  more 
than  twenty  years  he  had  in  keeping 
the  fortunes  of  that  great  emi)ire,  he 
went  to  bed  sober  one  night  in  the 
week,  and  his  great  rival,  an  abler  and 
more  brilliant  man,  Charles  James  Fox, 
was  a  bigger  drunkard  than  Pitt.  One 
day  Pitt,  the  premier,  and  Thurlow, 
the  lord  chancellor,  met  at  a  wayside 
inn  and  got  drunk.  Mounting  their 
horses  they  dashed  through  a  toll-gate 
without  stopping  to  pay.  The  keeper, 
mistaking  them  for  highwaymen,  dis- 
charged a  musket  at  them  with  stern 
attempt  to  slay.  We  cannot  iinagine 
President  Taft  or  Chief  Justice  White 
in  such  a  frolic  as  that.  But  the  dis- 
sipations of  Pitt  and  Thurlow  were 
venial  indeed  compared  with  the  out- 
rageous behavior  of  Bolingbroke  when 
that  extraordinary  man  was  the  ruler 
of    England    in    Queen    Anne's    reign. 

And  the  ladies!  Georgiana  of  Devon- 
shire, the  Saxon  Longueville,  was  at 
the  head  of  the  most  polite,  select  and 
exclusive  society  of  England.  She  se- 
cured the  triumpli  of  her  party  In  a 
thrillingly  exciting  election  by  bribing 
a  rude  and  ruffian  butcher  with  a  kiss 
to  vote  for  Charles  James  Fox.  In 
that  famous  passage  descriptive  of  the 
scene  at  the  opening  of  the  trial  of 
Warren  Hastings,  Macauley  alludes  to 
hei-.  ".Vnd  there  the  ladies,  whose 
lips,  more  persuasive  than  those  of 
Fox  himself,  carried  the  Westminster 
election  against  palace  and  treasury, 
shone    around    Georgiana,    Ducliess    of 

Devonshire." 

•     •     • 

This  magnificent  and  fascinating 
woman,  charming  as  she  was  beauti- 
ful, as  intellectual  a.s  she  was  grace- 
ful, one  day  entertained  at  formal  din- 
ner the  chiefs  of  the  Whig  party  of 
both  sexes.  For,  Burke,  Sheridan. 
Windham,  Grey,  were  at  the  board,  j 
where  sat  at  meat  many  of  the  most 
elegant  and  refined  ladles  the  British 
aristocracy  of  that  epoch  could  boast, 
including  the  beautiful  and  magnetic 
Mrs.  Crewe.  When  the  first  course  was 
served,  the  mistress  of  the  mansion, 
the  goddess  of  the  n)anquet,  turned  to 
the  butler  behind  her.  and  rebulced 
him.  In  terms  so  coarse,  so  rude,  that 
I  cannot  repeat  them,  for  rubbing 
again.st  her  chair.  The  episode  did  not 
create  a  ripple.  It  was  nothing  to 
shock  anybody  of  that  age.  It  was 
not  out  of  sympathy  with  the  conven- 
tions. 

But  much  water  has  passed  the  mill 
since  1780.  If  one  of  the  aristocracy 
of  England,  or  France,  or  Germany, 
should  employ  such  language  iu  1»12 
she  would  be  ostracised  and  bundled 
off  to  Coventry.  Mankind  is  grown 
more  decent. 

The  world  cTceoa  along  and  Tiir- 
veydrop  marchefe  wikV  it.  Queen  Eliza- 
beth conveyed  her  food — all  of  it — from 
her  plate  to  h4t  mrfuth  with  her  fin- 
gers; now  it  is  flat  vulgarity  as  ever 
was  committed  to  "eat  with  your 
knife,"  and  that  is  a  canon  of  polite 
manners  invented  by  some  fool  and 
all  of  us  cowards  obhervc  It.  We  dare 
not  use  our  spoon.^  to  rake  our  soup 
towards  us  In  the  plate,  but  must 
shovel  it  from  ^s,  and  when  we  get  to 
the  mouth  It  is  vulgar  to  shovel  it  up- 
on the  palate  endways;  we  must  take, 
it  sideways,  another*arbltrar>  and  un-  j 
warranted    usup'i^atlon       by    some    fooli 


who  set  himself  up  as  a  censor  of 
table  manners.  But  we  have  the  suf- 
fragettes with  us.  Dr.  Johnson  said 
truly:  "Nature  has  given  woman  so 
much  power  that  tlie  law  has  very 
\\i8ely     given     them    little." 

What  I  would  preach  to  the  young 
man  was  an  old  and  neglected  and  ig- 
nored pliilosophy  during  ages  that  are  i 
past  and  it  will  be  defiantly  rejected 
in  ages  yet  to  be.  It  is  this:  Be  vir- 1 
tuous  if  you  would  be  happy.  Here  Is 
the  way  to  be  virtuous,  the  only  way: 
Have  a  good,  a  souna,  and  a  vigilant 
conscience,  and  submit  to  no  tyrant 
but  it.  .And  heed  this,  young  man: 
"The    fear   o'    hell's   a   hangman's    whip, 

To    baud   the   wretch   in   order; 
But    where  you  feel   your  honor  grip. 

Let   that  ay   be   your  border; 
It;<    slightest    touches,    instant    pause- 
Debar   a'    side    pretenses. 
And   resolutely    keep    its  laws. 

Uncaring   consequences." 

And  do  not  forget  that  the  most  In- 
satiate tyrant  that  ever  sought  wreck 
among  men  Is  the  drunkard's  stomach. 
Defy  him,  conquer  him.  It  takes  a 
man  to  do  It,  but  it  has  been  done  In 
the  past  and  can  be  done  again  in  the 
future. 

"In   idoughman's  phrase,  'God  send  you 
speed,' 

Still    daily    to   grow    wiser; 
And   may   you   better   reck    the   rede 

Tiian  ever  did  the  adviser."

St.    Peter    Free    Press:      There 
to    be    considerable    sentiment   in 
of  a    new  state  Constitution   and 
the  many  amendments  offered  at 


seems 

favor 

from 

every 


legislative  session  it  can  oe  reasonably 
a.'isumed  that  a  complete  revision  of 
tlie  old  document  is  sadly  needed.  The 
present  Constitution  answered  fairly 
well  In  Its  day,  but  it  Is  fifty-five  years 
old  and  at  present  we  are  living  under 
radically  different  conditions.  To  for- 
mulate a  new  Constitution  requires  a 
constitutional  convention  and  since  a 
majority  in  each  branch  or  the  legis- 
lature professes  to  be  progressive  and 
more  or  less  non-partisan  it  is  barely 
possible  that  this  matter  will  receive 
njore  serious  attention  than  has  been 
the  case  at  former  attempts  in  the 
same  direction.  One  thing,  however, 
must  not  be  lost  sight  of  in  case  a  law 
is  passed  calling  a  constitutional  con- 
vention; the  delegates  should  be  chosen 
solely  for  their  fitness  and  not  because 
of    their    political    standing. 


Desirable   Featnre. 


Hibbing    Mesaba    Ore: 
meeting    of    the    Northern 
Editorial    association    will 
St.   Cloud   next   month,   ana

undesirable    outsiders.

Good  Start. 

Albert  Lea  Tribune:  It  is  said  that 
If  Henry  Rines,  who  is  cited  to  become 
the  next  speaker  of  the  Minnesota 
house,  carries  out  his  designs,  it  will 
save  the  taxpayers  at  least  $7,000  dur- 
ing the  session.  Not  a  large  sum,  but 
a    very    good    beginning. 


Too    Mnch    to    Expect. 

Holt  Northern  Light:  Governor 
Eberhart  says  we  are  going  to  have 
a  united  Republican  party.  Not  while 
men  of  the  Eberhart  or  Ed  Smith  type 
are   running   the  machinery. 


Helpful    Movements. 

Red  Lake  Falls  Gazette:  The  meet- 
ing of  the  Northern  Minnesota  Devel- 
opment association  at  Crookston  got 
back  of  many  good  movements.  Among 
the  good  things  it  did  was  to  recom- 
mend the  passage  of  a  law  allowing 
county  commissioners  to  appropriate  an 
amount  up  to  one  thousand  dollars 
annually  for  the  purpose  of  employ- 
ing a  county  agricultural  demonstra- 
tor and  instructor.  Such  a  law  would 
make  it  possible  to  employ  an  expert 
in  each  county  in  the  state.  The  ex- 
pense of  the  employment  of  an  expert 
amounts  to  about  $;'.,000  annually  but 
$2,000  of  that  amount  is  now  provided 
for  in  Federal  and  state  government 
aid  and  from  other  outside  sources.  It 
is  right  that  the  local  funds  sho.ild  be 
provided  from  the  public  revenue.  Pri- 
marily the  farmers  are  to  benefit,  but 
in  a  larger  sense  the  benefit  is  general 
and  the  work  is  educational,  just  as 
much  so  as  any  other  branch  of  in- 
struction  that   may   be   offeed. 


Co-operation    Xeeded. 

Gheen  Record:  The  Northern  Min- 
nesota Development  association  adopt- 
ed a  strong  set  of  resolutions  at  the 
late  meeting.  Now  let  us  all  put  oar 
shoulder  to  the  wheel  and  push  throufvh 
the  most  needed  of  these  demands — 
good    roads    for    Instance. 


I.a     Follette's     Position. 

Fairmont  Sentinel:  Minnesota  Pro- 
gressives will  make  a  serious  blunder 
if  they  turn  their  backs  upon  La  Fol- 
lette.  He  comes  nearest  being  the  real 
thing  as  a  reformer  of  any  man  in  of- 
ficial life  in  this  country.  Roosevelt 
has  his  good  points  but  he  is  a  rank 
dissembler  and  plays  the  game

The  Right  Ring 


Kansas  City  Star:  1  shall  in  the  fu- 
ture use  every  proper  and  legitimate 
power  I  have  and  every  Influence  at 
my  disposal  to  support  and  assist  the 
new  forces  which  have  regenerated 
our  life  during  the  past  two  years. — 
Woodrow  Wilson. 

This  statement  has  the  ring  of  chal- 
lenge   in    it   that    is    fine. 

It  does  not  presage  any  fear  of  be- 
ing "unconstitutional"  on  behalf  of  the 
people. 

Mr.  Wilson,  elected,  here  restates  his 
lineup    with    the    new    forces. 

The  country  is  served  well  when  the 
president  who  speaks  for  it  does  not 
wait  to  speak  defensively,  but  carries 
the  talking  and  the  fighting  to  "the 
otlier    crowd." 

Mr.  Wilson  will  have  all  champions 
of  the  "new  forces"  supporting  him  In 
this    line    of    word    and    action. 


that  wouldn't  move  from  a  point  seven 

miles    from    Grand    itlapids,    Mich.,    the 

hotbed     of    mission       furniture,     where 
they    were    to   speak    the    next    day. 

It  was  already  past  midnight.  They 
walked  half  a  mile  to  the  nearest  farm- 
house. ho]>ing  to  luy  an  armful  of 
gasoline.  A  large.  sorrel,  pearly- 
toothed,  jiompous  dog  ran  out  and 
barked  boisterously,  as  if  bent  on  mis- 
chief. Sweet  stood  behind  a  tree  and 
talked  to  the  dog,  at  first  banteringly 
and  then  persuasively.  He  used  a 
1  whole  week's  supp]>  of  eloquence  just 
in  a  few  moments  md  it  availed  not 
at  all. 

Redfieid  remained  a  rod  or  two 
farther  away  and  said  nothing.  He 
knows  more  things  about  the  tariff 
than  anybody,  perhaps,  but  wlien  it 
comes  to  dogs,  that  Is  something  else 
again.  Besides  it  veas  Sweet's  affair, 
he  thought,  and  he  didn't  like  to  in- 
terrupt. 

Sweet  noticed  Redfield's  silence  and 
asked,  almost  petulantly: 

"Why  don't  you  help  me  make  up 
with   tills  dog'."' 

Now,  one  does  not  like  to  be  asked 
a  sharp  question  in  a  vexed  tone  in 
the  middle  of  the  night  out  on  a  muddy 
road,  and  it  was  all  Redfieid  could  do 
to   retain   his   cornpoisure,  as  he  replied: 

"The  dog  seemed  to  have  the  floor 
and  I  didn't  suppose  he  would  yield, 
not  even   to  me." 

Then  the  two  congressmen  took  up 
the  trudge  to  tlie  ;iext  house,  a  mile 
farther  on.

Representative  M'-Kinley  of  Illinois, 
the  well-known  lane  duck,  is  a  cute 
little  man  witli  onl;-  an  average  appe- 
tite. He  is  also  al  sentminded  on  oc- 
casion. One  noon  recently  he  went  in- 
to the  restaurant  at  the  White  House 
end  of  the  capitol  and  ate  a  rather 
hearty  meal.  It  w{ls  not  an  elaborate 
meal  compared  to  the  amount  of  ra- 
tions that  Ollie  Jtimes,  for  example, 
might  consume,  but  it  was  all  McKin- 
lej-  cared  for.  And  here  was  the  trag- 
edy: Just  as  he  had  finished,  he  re- 
membered that  he  was  to  be  a  guest 
at  a  luncheon  partj  at  an  uptown  ho- 
tel. He  had  barely  time  to  keep  that 
engagement.  It  was  a  struggle  eating 
his  way  through  ttis  second  luncheon 
for  politeness  sake,  but  he  got  tlirough 
It,  though  feeling  like  a  stuffed  owl. 

"Well,"  says  he  to  himself,  "ru  at 
least  not  eat  again  for  a  day  or  so." 
But  he  hadn't  any  more  than  thought 
that  till  he  rememoered  a  dinner  en- 
gagement. It  was  11  course  dinner  and 
each  course  looked  as  big  to  McKinley 
as   a  Ijale   of   excelsior. 

All   he  ate  the  next  day   was  part   of 

an  olive.

Congressman  Ed'vard  "SA'.  Townsend 
sat  at  a  table  in  the  Lamb's  club,  New- 
York,  the  other  day  discussing  politics 
and  sociology  with  George  Ade,  Peter 
Dunne  and  Henr-  Blossom.  Each 
member  of  the  quartet  was  trying  to 
be  more  of  a  highbrow  than  the  oth- 
ers and  rounded  ou :  his  sentences  with 
extreme  care,  as  they  passed  from  one 
grave  topic  to  another. 

While  they  were  sitting  there,  Henry 
Dixey,  the  actor,  walked  by,  and  was 
impressed  with  the  possibilities  in  the 
conversational  fcursome.  You  see, 
Townsend  is  the  mj.n  who  wrote  Chim- 
mie  Fadden,  Ade  ard  Dooley  have  each 
done  a  few  things  to  the  English 
tongue,  and  Blossom's  first  liid  for 
fame  was  by  means  of  race  track  slang. 

"What  dire  thingrs  must  be  happen- 
ing to  the  English  language  now." 
murmured  Dixey  more  in  sadness  than 
derision.  Which  slows  how  easily  one 
may  do  others  an  injustice.  The  four 
had  talked  more  scholarly  talk  than 
could  have  passed   a  given   point   in  an 

hour.

Richmond  Pearson  Hobson.  the  Mer-

frame  things  up  tc  be  a  senator  from 
Alabama,  delivered  an  address  In  Bos- 
ton recently.  Wh'Mi  he  got  through,

who  was  extremely  anxious  to  make  a 
hit    with    Hobson.     iah\: 

"Alabama  is  mi?ht  lucky  to  have 
two  national  charjLcters  lilie  you  and 
Booker    Wasliingto^i." 

Hobson  says  that  is  the  meanest 
thing  that  was  ever  said  to  him  with 
the  exception  of  Ihe  time  he  lay  ill 
from  typhoid  fever  in  a  New  York  hos- 
pital. The  doctor  came  in  one  day  and 
asked    how   he   was    feeling. 

"Oh,  I'm  getting  stronger,  all  right." 
said  Hobson,  "but  I  don't  seem  equal 
to  much  mental  exertion  yet.  I  tried 
to  write  some  letters  a  while  ago  and 
it    gave   me    brain    fag." 

"Yes,"  remarked  the  doctor,  preoc- 
cupiedly.  with  no  thought  of  cracking 
a   joke,    "the    fever    Is   likely    to    attack 

the   weakest    part."

William  Jennings  Bryan  admits  to 
a  great  timidity  about  fire.  It  is  the 
one  thing  that  he  fears  as  he  goes 
through  life.  In  strange  hotels  he 
rarely  goes  to  bed  without  first  find- 
ing  out  where  the  fire  escapes  are,  and 
even  then  sometimes  he  lies  in  bed 
feeling    uneasy. 

His  new  winter  home  in  Florida  is 
absolutely  fireproof  and  he  Is  thinking 
of  having  his  place  at  Lincoln  rebuilt 
to  insure  him  against  being  awakened 
some  night  by  the  crackle  of  flames  all 
about    ills    bed. 

The  only  thing  that  Bryan  cares  less 
about  than  fire  is    the  memory  of  Mark 
Hanna.

The  Press  and  Business 


Omaha  World-Herald:  The  liberal 
a:nd  judicious  advertising  done  by  the 
merchants  of  Omaha  has  without  doubt 
added  immensely  to  tlie  amount  of  bus- 
iness in  tills  Western  community  and 
it  shows  the  enterprise  and  broad- 
mindedness  of  the  men  who  carry  on 
the  great  commercial  enterprises  which 
sustain  the  population.  But  it  is  not 
to  them  alone  that  the  credit  is  due. 
The  volume  of  business  of  which  we 
are  proud  is  due  in  part  to  the  press 
as  well  as  to  the  business  men.  It  may 
be  doubted  whether  the  paid  advertise- 
ments have  sold  more  holiday  goods 
than  the  free  advertisements  which  the 
press  has  furnished.  The  holiday  trade 
has  been  enormously  increased  by  the 
character  of  the  printed  matter.  The 
Santa  Claus  illustrations  and  the  read- 
ing  matter  which  has  been  wholly  un- 
der the  control  of  the  editors,  the 
Christmas  societies  and  benefits  that 
have  been  organized  and  promoted  by 
thein,  the  constant  references  made  to 
the  season,  have  done  as  much  to  in- 
crease the  holiday  trade  as  the  paid 
advertisements. 

This  sort  of  work  is  not  confined  to 
the  holidays,  but  runs  all  through  the 
>"ear.  Every  improvement  is  noticed, 
every  new  invention  is  chronicled, 
every  better  way  of  doing  things  is  de- 
scribed and  tliese  articles  are  not  only 
for  the  benefit  of  the  city  but  for  the 
whole  state.  If  there  is  a  better  strain 
of  alfalfa  available,  every  detail  con- 
cerning it  is  given.  If  there  is  an  im- 
provement in  agricultural  implements 
it  is  immediately  announced  that  all 
the  farmers  of  the  state  may  avail 
themselves  of  it,  and  in  that  way  the 
creation  of  wealth  is  increased  and  the 
people  are  put  in  condition  to  buy  the 
goods  that  the  merchants  have  for 
sale.  Without  such  work  by  the  press, 
tlie  sales  would  of  necessity  be  much 
less.

Chicago,  Dec.  2i>. — Xo  criminal,  in-

city  is  withovit  turkey  this  Christ- 
mas. None  of  the  thousamis  of  poor 
in  Chicago  needed  to  abstain  from  tur- 
key and  cranberry  sauce.  Plans  b\- 
the  city  authorities  and  charitable  or- 
gani/.ations  are  more  extensive  alouK 
this  line  than  ever  made  before,  anu 
there  is  a  likelihood  that  bundled--  of 
roast  turkeys  will  go  uneaten  rather 
than   that   any   one  will   go   without. 

Grand  opera  will  be  heard  by  the 
condemned  muiderers.  bandits  and 
lesser  criminals  in  the  county  jail.  Mu- 
sic and  vaudeville  will  feature  the  day 
at  the  public  hospitals,  and  the  Cook

compan.\',  now  giving  its  season  here. 
For  a  time  theie  was  talk  by  Jailer 
William  T.  Davies  that  he  would  omit 
the  usual  musical  features  of  Christ- 
mas because  of  a  reign  of  unruliness 
and  tendency  toward  mutiny  among 
the  prisoners.  This  aroused  a  storm 
of  protest  in  the  jail.  Prisoners  at 
"ligiits  out"  woiUd  rattle  their  bars 
ami  shout  ''music,  music,"  "we  w-ant 
our  music."  .Jailer  Davies  finally  lieeded 
the  demand  and  arranged  with  the 
oi>era  stars  to  give  liis  charges  some 
high  class  arias  after  Christmas  din-

Phoenix,  Arix.,  Dec.  25. — A  Christmas 
round-robin  signed  by  111  prisoners  at 
the  state  i>enitentiary  at  Florence  has 
been  received  by  Governor  George  P. 
Hunt.  The  prisoners  thanked  the  gov- 
ernor for  his  treatment  of  convicts 
ami  assured  liim  "the.v  would  do  all 
in  their  power  to  prove  to  the  world 
that  his  method  of  treating  convicts 
was  proper  and  correct  for  society  to 
adopt,  if  the  aim  of  societ.v  was  to 
better  social  conditions  and  reduce 
crime." 


house.  He  found  the  governor  waiting 
for  him  for  luncheon,  however,  and 
the  two  Democratic  leaders  sat  alone 
in  the  private  dining  room  of  the  cap- 
itol  talking  earnestly  for  two  hours. 
\^■hen  the  conference  was  over.  Mr. 
Wilson  said  the  talk  had  been  '•along 
universal  lines"  of  legislation  as  wi  11 
as  cabinet  possibilities  being  taken  up. 
He  added  that  they  had  discussed  the 
"geneial  character  of  the  extra  sessioti 
and  the  preparedness  of  general  legis- 
lation to  ctune  before  it." 

Tariff    Malu    IntereMt. 

'•\\'e  both  agieed  ihe  tariff  should  be 
the  main  interest  of  the  extra  session,'' 
said  the  governor. 

In  urging  an  earl.v  niecti.ig  of  con- 
gress, the  speaker  told  Mr.  Wilson  that 
he  belie\ed  ttiembeis  of  congress  ought 
not  to  be  kept  waiting  too  long  be- 
tween sessions. 

The  president-elect  did  not  disclf>se 
what  names  he  and  Mr.  Clark  diseuss.-d 
for  the  cabinet.  He  said,  liowe\  er, 
that  the  speaker  'had  not  come  primed 
with  suggestions,"  but  ratlier  he  came 
to  express  himself  on  the  subject  of 
the  cabinet  because  he  consiilercd  that 
a  sort  of  famil.v  relationship  existi  d 
between  the  president  and  his  cabinet. 

He  asked  the  speaker  for  his  opinion 
as  to  several  names,  said  Mi-.  ^Vilson. 
••and  the  names  we  did  mention,  be 
went  over  in  a  very  judicial  spirit.  He 
lias  had  so  much  experience,  and  I 
knew  he  coidd  tell  me  some  things 
about  the  public  men  that  [  otherwise 
would  not  be  able  to  get,  chiefly  as  to 
their  experienc-e." 

Both  the  speaker  and  Governor  Wil- 
son said  Mr.  Br>an's  name  had  uot 
been    mentioned    in    the   conference. 

Hrjau    .\ot    Tallied   of. 

AVhen  the  newspaper  men  approached 
the  speaker,  he  declined  to  gi\  e  out  any 
information  as  to  his  talk  with  the 
governor.  They  pressed  him,  however, 
as  to  whether  Mr.  Bryan  had  been  dis- 
cussed. 

"No,"  answered  the  speaker,  "Pll 
give  .vou  that  much  information — he 
was   not." 

When  he  was  interiogated  later 
about  Mr.  Bryan,  the  speaker  said 
plainly  that  he  did  not  like  to  be  in- 
terviewed    about    the    Nebraskan. 

"I'm  not  going  to  talk  about  him," 
he  said  emphatically;  -you  can  murk 
that  tlown,  and  there  is  no  use  to  talk 
about  it.  I  don't  want  to  seem  unkind 
or  discourteous,  but  there  are  sonic 
things  I  will  do  and  some  that  I  won't. 
This  is  one  of  the  things  I  will  not  do." 

Governor  Wilson  dedarett  his  talk 
with    Mr.    Clark    was    ver.v    cordial. 

"He    always    has   had    tiio    most    geji- 
erous    and    cordial    attitudo,"    said    the 
)>resident-elect    of   his    visilf)r. 
I  nder^Tood    Im    Detter. 

The  governor  heard  from  Mr.  Clark 
that  Representative  Underwood  s  health 
was  improving.  A  tentative  appoint- 
ment has  been  arranged  1>.>  the  gov- 
ernor with  Mr.  Underwood  for  next 
Tuesday. 

After  the  conference  with  '.-Ir.  Under- 
wood, the  president-elect  .said  he  ex- 
pected to  receive  many  members  of 
congress     b.v     appointment. 

"In  all  these  conferences,"  said  Mr. 
Wilson,  "we  do  not  discuss  specific 
things  so  much;  but  I  try  to  get  as 
much  counsel  as  I  can  with  regard  to 
men  and  j>olicies.  With  Mr.  Clark,  for 
instance,  I  went  over  the  general  sit- 
uation as  to  men  for  the  cabinet,  and 
policies,  covering  (iractically  the  same 
f^rovMul  as    I   did   with  Mr.   Bryan."

Kansas  Cit.\.  Mo.,  Dec.  'lo. — A  dozen 
larsfc  business  concerns,  including  the 
Carnegie  Steel  company  and  several 
prcat  packing  firm  in  cities  of  the  East 
and  Middle  West,  have  been  defrauded 
through  a  collection  scheme  of  up- 
wards of  ir.OO.OOO  in  the  last  few- 
months,  according  to  K.  B.  Mundelle,  a 
postoffice  ins)>«'ctor  of  Chicago,  who 
airested  W.  W.  Fellers  and  Joseph 
l-'inklcman  bci-e  charged  with  the  use 
of  the  mails  to  defraud  in  connection 
with  the  alleged  operations. 

According  to  Inspector  Mundelle.  A. 
V.  Prieman,  arrested  in  Chicago  and 
held  to  Ihf  Federal  grand  jur.v  under 
$-20,000  bonds,  and  F.  H.  Wendler,  ar- 
rested in  St.  I.oiiis,  are  the  leaders  in 
the  group,  which  is  said  to  employ 
more  than  fifty  field  agents  in  various 
cities.   • 

I'ostoffice  inspectors  said  the  mon 
obtained  large  accounts  from  big  firms 
for  collection.  The.x  obtained  ailvances

concerned  as  a  well  behaved  cat  at 
home. 

"Take  that  out  of  here!  Get  riglit 
out  of  here  with  thati"  Mr.  Cone  yelled 
at  the  top  of  his  voice. 

•'Don't  you  buy  thorn  that  -way?" 
asked   th.^   astonished   stranger. 

"For  heaven's  sake  take  it  away!" 
roared   the    furrier. 

•'AH  right,"  said  the  visitor  in  a 
tone  of  disgust,  ond  picking  up  his 
well-tamed  pet,  he  replaced  it  under 
his   coat   and   disappeared. 

"I  hardly  dared  come  back  into  the 
store."  said  Mr.  Cone  yesterday,  de- 
scribing the  incident.  "There  was  an 
awful  stench  in  the  place.  I  opened 
the  windows  with  little  effect.  For 
nearly  all  the  next  forty-eight  hours 
I  was  burning  sulphur,  incense  and 
other  disinfectants  to  get  the  smell 
out  of  the  place.  It  was  a  hard  job. 
but  1  succeeded  at  last.  I  don't  know 
who  that  stranger  was.  I  never  met 
him  before  and  1  wish  never  to  meet 
him   or  his  pet  again."

CASTING  LOTS 


Is  Selected  Over  Socialist 

in  Pennington  and  End 

Not  Yet. 

Thief  River  Falls.  Minn..  Dec.  :">. 
The  controversy  over  who  will  be 
county  commissioner  from  the  Fifth 
district  in  Pennington  is  by  no  means 
.settled,  although  the  tie  between  A.  B. 
Mandt  and  George  L,emiers,  the  .So- 
cialist, was  suppo.sed  to  have  been  set- 
tled Monday  when  County  Auditor  F.i- 
sel,  in  accordance  with  legal  provi- 
srions  in  case  of  a  tie,  had  lots  cast. 
Mandt  won  in  the  lottery,  but  as  Le- 
mlors  already  has  the  certificate  of 
election,  gained  at  the  special  election, 
and  refuses  to  surrender  it,  further 
legal  pioceedings  will  have  to  be  in- 
stituted to  settle  the  matter. 

The  special  election  was  held  when 
the  tie  wa.«  first  discovered,  the  attor- 
ney general  advising  to  that  end,  but 
later  it  was  discovered  that  the  law- 
provided  for  settling  a  tie  by  drawing 
lots. 


DROPS  SQUIRREL  PLAN. 

Houghton,    Mich.,     School     Head's 
Scheme  to  Breed  Animals  Given  Up. 

llougliton,  Mich.,  Dec.  25. —  (Special 
to  The  Herald.)— Supt.  .1.  A.  Doelle  of 
the  public  schools  at  Houghton  has 
dropped  his  scheme  to  propagate  gray 
squirrels  in  tliis  community.  The  plan 
was  to  promote  a  love  for  pets  and 
dumb  animals  generally  among  the 
children  by  turning  loose  a  colotiy  of 
the  tree-toi)  rodents,  following  the  ex- 
ample of  many  college  towns.  Since 
broaching  the  scheme  and  having  it 
financed,  Mr.  Doelle  has  learned  from 
Vernon  Bailey,  biologist  of  the  fed- 
eral department  of  agriculture,  that 
gray  squirrels  and  red  squirrels  will 
not  thrive  together,  the  red  ones  in- 
variably exterminating  the  larger,  but 
weaker  brothers.  Many  people  have 
al.so  expressed  the  fear  that  the  ani- 
mals would  propagate  so  rapidly  as 
lo  become  a  pest.  Accordingly,  Mr. 
Doelle  has  decided  to  abandon  the 
_plan.

Should  Be  Compelled  By  Law,  De-

Ifchpemjng,  Mich..  Dec.  23. —  (.Special 
to  The  Herald.) — As  a  sanitary  measure 
and  as  one  of  justice  to  the  people, 
the  sale  of  dead  poultry  only  when 
wholly  dressed  is  being  urged  as  a  sub- 
ject for  imperatively  needed  legisla- 
tion. CJ.  A.  Newett  of  Ishpeming.  Prom- 
inent in  the  movement,  says:  "The 
crops  and  other  'inner  works'  of 
dressed  poultry  should  be  removed  with 
the  killing  of  the  fowl.  To  permit  them 
to  remain  taints  the  meat,  rendering  it 
unfit  for  food.  Besides,  it  is  an  im- 
position to  make  the  buyer  pay  for 
such  things.  It  is  hoped  some  member 
of  the  Michigan  legislature  wlio  has 
the  interest  of  the  people  eno\igh  at

DEER  HERD  GROWING. 

Animals  on  Grand    Island    Preserve 
Are  Increasing. 

Munising,  Mich.,  Dec.  25. —  (Special  to 
The  Herald.) — That  deer  will  propa- 
gate rapidly  if  given  half  a  chance  is 
shown  by  the  manner  in  which  the 
herd  in  the  Cleveland  Cliffs  Iron  com- 
pany's big  game  preserve  on  Grand 
island.  Lake  Superior,  is  increasing  an- 
nually. The  experience  in  this  in- 
stance furnishes  an  excellent  example 
of  the  fecundity  of  these  animals.  Al- 
though the  island  is  of  large  extent 
and  hunting  \0  permitted  each  open 
season,  the  deer  breed  so  rapidly  that 
annual  shipments  are  necessary  to 
keep  their  number  down  so  they  will 
be  able  to  flnd\enough  natural  food  to 
sustain  themselves.  This  year  ap- 
plications have  i)een  received  from 
various  ICastern  cities  for  from  160  to 
170  head  of  de^r,  and  it  is  expected 
that  in  excess  of  100  will  be  shipped. 
Already  a  number  have  been  sent  out. 
but  it  is  not  easy  to  take  the  deer  un- 
til the  enow  has  become  deep  and  they 
are  driven  to  seek  the  food  placed  iii 
traps.  The  method  of  taking  the  deer 
is  simple.  Box  traps  of  boards,  with 
high  sides,  and  a  door  which  is  so  ar- 
ranged that  the  deer  causes  it  to  fall 
after  it  has  entered  the  trap  have 
proved  efficacious  In  corralling  the 
animals.  When  one  Is  taken  in  a  trap 
It  is  loaded  into  a  crate  and  shipped  to 
Its  destination.

PREFERS^ISON  LIFE. 

Paroled    Marquette   Prison    Convict 
Glad  to  Be  Back  in  Institution. 

Marquette,  Mich..  Dec.  25. —  (Special 
to  The  Herald.) — Disgusted  at  life  out- 
side the  prison,  Charles  Crawford,  a 
convict,  who  had  violated  his  parole, 
has  been  returned  to  the  Marquette 
penitentiary,  on  his  own  initiative.  He 
was    biought    here    from    Camden,    Ai-k. 

Crawford  was  one  of  the  sorriest 
objects  who  has  turned  up  at  the 
prison  in  many  months,  his  garb  con- 
sisting almost  entirely  of  clothes  his 
guard  had  bought  for  him,  and  they 
were  none  too  heavy  to  withstand  the 
wintry  blasts  of  Lake  Superior.  When 
Crawford  was  turned  over  by  the 
Camden  officers  he  was  In  rags  and 
could  not  hoast  even  a  single  pair  of 
soiks.  He  had  been  on  the  road  as  a 
hobo  and  had  become  so  sickened  of 
his  unsettled  life  that  he  voluntarily 
told  the  police  officers  of  his  prison

NOT  MANY  BEAVER. 

Ishpeming.    Mich.,    Man    Contends 
Slaughter  Will  Not  Be  Large. 

Ishpeming,  Mich..  Dec.  25. — (Special 
to  The  Herald.) — George  A.  Newett. 
former  state  commissioner  of  mineral 
statistics  believes  that  beaver  trapping 
will  not  be  the  bonanza  generally  ex- 
petted  under  the  new  law  which  makes 
the  little  fur-bearing  animal  legal 
prey  after   Jan.    14. 

"The  fact  Is,  there  are  not 
many  of  them  left,"  Mr.  Newett 
"For  the  last  several  years-  they 
been  trapped  by  the  thousand  in  the 
Upper  Peninsula.  Hundreds  of  coats 
have  been  made  from  pelts  taken  in 
the  closed  period.  Many  people  have 
been  making  a  business  of  buying 
these  pelts  from  the  trappers  and  send- 
ing tliem  to  furriers  throughout  the 
countr.v.  It  has  been  no  secret.  A  few 
offenders  have  been  arrested  and  fined, 
but  by  far  the  greater  number  have 
not  been  molested  in  their  unlawful 
business.  Prom  every  stream  in  this 
peninsula  beaver  have  been  caught. 
The  beaver,  protected  by  law  for  so 
many  years  and  having  made  a  good 
start,  have  again  been  pretty  well 
trapped    out."

nounced by  Chairman  William  Corcor-

The  name  of  W.  H.  Edwards,  street

Princeton,  had  been  suggested  for  the 
place,  but  Chairman  Eustis  decided 
that,  in  view  of  the  fact  that  a  parade 
as  large  as  that  of  the  inauguration, 
in  which  numerous  military  as  well  as 
civic    organizations    are    to    take    part.

THONE  DISPATCHING 

Will  Be  Tried  Out  on  Soo  Railroad's 
Chicago  Division. 

St.  Paul,  Minn..  Dec.  25. — The  Soo 
road  soon  will  begin  the  exten.sive 
operation  of  trains  on  Its  Chicago  di- 
vision trains  between  St.  Paul  and  the 
Illinois  terminal  by  the  telephone 
dispatching-  system. 

If  the  method  proves  feasible  It  is 
probable,  say  Soo  operating  official.'!, 
that  the  .system  will  be  established 
throughout  the  transcontinental  routi;, 
on   the  Soo  and  the  Canadian  Pacific. 

Telephone  apparatu.s  is  being  installed 
between    Chicago   tnd      Stevens    Point, 


Wis.,  and  switchboards  will  be  placed 
in  operation  at  the  Stevens  Point  dl- 
vLsioji  headquarters  and  also  in  St. 
F'aul   and   Minneapolis. 

It  is  believed  by  General  Manager 
G.  R.  Huntington  that  the  telephofc 
dispatching  system  will  not  only  fa- 
cilitate the  movement  of  trains,  bft 
will  eliminate  many  dangerous  ele-

MME.  SCHUMANN-HEINK  AND  HER  TWO  YOUNGEST  CHILDREN. 

Tliis  is  Mme.  Schumann- Heink  and  her  two  vounKest  children.  The  daugh. 
ter  is  named  Maria  Tlieresa,  after  the  empress  of  Austria,  who  is  one  of  Mme. 
Schumann-Heink's  great  list  of  international  friends,  .'^he  is  about  16  years  old. 
The  boy  is  14  rears  old.  He  is  the  only  one  of  Mme.  Schumann-Heink's  children 
to  be  born  in  this  country.  He  is  named  George  Washington,  after  the  father  of 
his  countrv.  These  two  children  form  a  part  of  Mme.  Schumann-Heink's  family 
which  served  to  separate  her  from  her  second  husband,  who  was  a  Chicago 
editor.  He  objected  to  the  fact  that  his  wife  thought  more  of  her  children  than 
she  did  of  him.  Mme.  Schumann-Heink  decided  she  could  get  along  better  with- 
out her  husband  than  without  her  children.  She  is  the  greatest  contralto  on  the 
American  concert  stage  today.  She  has  not  sung  in  opera  for  several  years  as 
she  finds  concert  singing  more  remunerative.

qualities  of  "Sheva"  was  to  teach  toler-

Mrs.  A.  Kenigsburg  gave  an  interest- 
ing account  of  Lord  Gordon's  part  in 
English  politics  of  that  period  and  how- 
he  was  finally  converted  to  Judaism 
and  Mrs.  A.  Lignal  discussed  the 
••Auto  De  Fe,"  the  Spanish  manner  of 
executing    heretics. 

••Nathan,  the  Wise"  was  the  subject 
of  a  well  planned  talk  by  Mrs.  Henry 
Geller  and  a  general  discussion  fol- 
lowed. .  _  , 

At  the  next  meeting.  Bee.  i.  Sir  TV  al- 
ter Scott's  "Ivanhoe"  will  be  the  topic,

will  give  a  synopsis  of  the  narrative 
and  Mrs.  Louis  Zalk  "the  critical 
analysis.  .       ,  ,    . 

Mrs  Geller  will  outline  the  history 
of  the  Jews  from  the  time  of  the  Nor-

subject  the  character,  "Kebekah,  in

The  best  way  to  clean  rusty  needles 
is  to  run  them  up  and  down  in  the 
earth.  Just  go  out  in  the  garden  and 
stick  the  needles  In  the  ground,  then 
pull  them  out.  Have  the  needles 
threaded,  with  the  thread  tied  double, 
so  there  will  be  something  to  catch 
hold  of  to  extract  the  needle  from  the 
earth.  This  method  is  even  better 
than    using    an    emery    bag.

was  discussing  the  convicts'  school  that 
he  has  established. 

"Our  convict  pupils  are  doing  well," 
he  said.  "Our  curriculum  aims  espe- 
cially at  strengthening  their  will  pow- 
er. These  poor  felloAvs  want  to  do 
right,  but  their  wills  are  weak.  In 
fact." — the  warden  smiled  and  shook 
his  head — "in  fact,  they  are  all  wish- 
bone and  no  backbone." 

"Of  course,  too,  their  upbringing  may 
have  been  bad — parents  spoiled  them, 
perhaps.  Like  the  well-known  case  of 
the  father  who  said:  'I  have  never 
struck  mv  children  except  in  self-de- 
fense; or.  like  the  less  well-known  case 
of    the   father   whose    little    boy    had   a 

O-QCI  ♦ 

••While  this  father  was  entertaining 
some  guests  in  the  drawing  room,  the 
boy  dragged  the  goat  in  through  the 
door,  and  the  animal  immediately  but- 
ted over  and  smashed  a  huge  and  ex- 
pensive vase  of  enamel. 

"  'Willie,'  said  the  father  sternly, 
•how  often  have  I  told  you  never  to 
bring  that  goat  into  the  drawing  room? 
If  vou  will  have  it  in  the  house,  1  Insist 
that  it  be  confined  strictly  to  the  sit- 
ting room,  dining  room  and  library'."' 


A  YOUNG  WIDOW  WHO  WENT  INTO 
BUSINESS  WITH  $  1 00  CAPITAL

By  PEGGY  PEABODV 


MRS.  COPLEY  THAW 


Mrs.  Copley  Thaw  is  to  marry  Goef- 
frey  W.  Whitney  of  Boston.  Mrs.  Thaw 
was  formerly  the  countess  of  Yar- 
mouth, but  since  her  divorce  from  the 
earl  she  has  been  known  as  Mrs.  Alice 
Coplcv  Thaw.  8he  is  the  daughter  of 
Mrs.  William  Thaw  and  a  sister  oT 
Harry  Thaw.  She  married  the  earl  of 
Yarmouth  In  1903,  but  her  marriage 
proved  unhappy  and  she  divorced  him 
five  years  later.  Owing  to  an  ante- 
nuptial agreement  the  earl  did  not  get 
any  of  her  wealth  after  the  divorce  to 
remind  him  of  his  matrimonial  venture. 


Too    Much    Ado    Made    About 
Inter-Class  Marriages. 

Whenever  a  man 
of  "family"  marries 
a  servant  girl,  or  a 
woman  of  UliC  so- 
elal  standing  weds 
a  chauffeur,  there 
is  a  great  "howdy- 
do*  about  it.  Once 
the  American  peo- 
ple didn't  hold 
themselves  so  su- 
perior to  those  who 
worked  for  them. 
Once  it  was  no  un- 
common sight  to  see 
family  and  servants 
asBO  dating  on 
friendly  terms  with- 
out   any    barrier   of 

cRste     Of    course    it  .,     .    .k„ 

was  true,  in  most  Instances,  that  the 
^hired  help  "  were  native  to  the  soil  on 
w-hlch  they  stood,  and  that  they  Ave  re 
often  related  by  blood  to  those  whom 
they  served. 

Todav  there  is  too  much  of  a  tend- 
ency to  distinguish  between  t'lo^e  en- 
gaged In  hauible  tasks,  regardless  of 
face  and  tNoiie  who  are  more  fortunate 
by  birth.  The  fact  that  a  woman  Is  a 
domestic  .servant,  and  a  man  employed 
in   a   similar   capacity,    condemns   thorn 

n  the  opinion  of  all  but  a  discerning 
few  If  one  marries  a  person  higher 
up    iu    the    social    scale,    the    romance 


becomes  a  nine  days'  wonder.  People 
voice  all  sorts  of  "ifs"  and  "buts"  and, 
as  long  as  the  couple  live,  no  matter 
how  happy  and  successful  they  may 
be.  there  will  always  be  someone  to 
whisper,  ".She  was  a  servant  girl,  you 
know,"  or  "He  was  only  a  chauffeur.' 

Of  course  It  ought  not  to  bother  the 
two  who  considered  their  mutual  love 
enough,  and  who  have  proved  it  suf- 
ficient with  the  passing  of  time,  and 
usually  It  does  not.  Sometimes,  how- 
ever, it  becomes  the  subject  of  heart- 
burn and  bickering  between  two  who 
would  have  ambled"^ through  life  peace- 
fully had  it  not  been  for  the  constant 
reminder  that  one  was  the  other  s  in- 
ferior socially. 

Why  people  should  place  so  much 
stress"  on  the  servant  idea  is  a  ques- 
tion, considering,  as  we  must,  that 
most  of  us  ai-9  servants  of  some  con- 
cern or  person  or  Interest,  tolling  away 
for    hire. 

I  very  much  dislike  the  reference  to 
servant  girl  and  hired  man  that  always 
accompanies  the  so-called  inter-class 
marriages.  If  any  one  earns  an  hon- 
est living  and  has  the  ability  to  rise 
above  his  or  her  circumstances,  that 
Is  their  privilege,  surely.  That  Is  what 
each  and  everv  one  of  ug  is  trying 
to  do.  That  is  what  most  of  us  have 
done.  Don't  be  one  eternally  to  din 
some  decent,  able  persons  humble  be- 
ginning into  the  ears  of  others  to  the 
detriment  of  the  party  concerned.  Give 
lier   a  chance. 


In  the  Woman's  Home  Companion  is 
reported  the  true  story  of  a  young 
widow  who  developed  a  good  business, 
starting  with  a  capital  of  $100.  One 
day  her  husband  lost  everything  he 
had  in  speculation,  and  committed  sui- 
cide, leaving  nothing  of  value  except 
a  diamond  ring  from  the  sale  of  which 
she  procured  flJO. 

Tiiis  young  •^vonian  started  a  gift- 
shop  in  a  tow-n  of  30.000  about  twenty- 
flve  miles  from  New  York  city.  She 
started  out  with  about  fifty  articles 
for  which  she  spent  $30.  These  articles 
were  mostly  of  brass  and  she  cleaned 
them  and  sold  them  at  a  nice  profit. 
The  following  card  announced  the 
opening    of    her    shop: 

•'Visit  my  little  gift-shop  at  34  Main 
street.  Suggestions  freely  furnished 
for  appropriate  presents.  Original  and 
suitable  gifts  rom  10  cents  to  $10. 
Opening  day,  the  15th.  34  Main  street, 
at  'The  Sign  of  the  Many  Happy  lie- 
turns   .'^hop.'  " 

She   kept   onl}-   two   or   three   articles 


MOTHERHOOD  ON  THE  DECLINE. 
Ellen  Key  in  the  Atlantic  Monthly: 
When  the  woman  movement  began,  in 
the  middle  of  the  last  century,  and 
many  expressecl  fears  that  ''womanli- 
ness" would  suflfer,  such  contentions 
were  answered  l^y  saying  that  that 
would  be  as  pieposterous  as  that  the 
warmth  of  the  sun  would  give  out.  It 
was  .iust  In  order  that  the  motherll- 
ness  should  be  able  to  penetrate  all 
the  splieres  of  life  that  woman's  lib- 
eration   was    rei|uired. 

And  now?  Nr>w  we  see  a  constantly 
decreasing  birth  rate  on  account  of  an 
increasing  disinclination  for  mother- 
hood, and  this  not  alone  among  the 
child-worn  drudges  in  home  and  Indus- 
try, not  alone  among  the  lazy  crea- 
tures of  luxury.  No,  even  women 
strong  of   body  and  worthy  of  mother- 


in  her  window,  but  changed  it  every 
morning.  She  very  soon  had  a  reserve 
stock  and  changed  it  every  day  or  so; 

and  as  people  bet'an  to  know  and  de- 
pend upon  the  little  shop  they  droppecl 
in  oftener  on  acccunt  of  running  across 
odd  and  unusual  things.  At  the  end 
of  three  months  she  had  in  stock  about 
one  hundred  and  fifty  pieces,  and  al- 
most $70  in  h3r  savings  box,  and  her 
living  had  been  paid  for.  She-  does  her 
own  work  early  in  the  morning,  keeps 
her  little  store  spotless,  and  has  now  a 
young  woman  clerk  at  $5  a  week,  who 
embroiders  to  order,  and  gets  a  per- 
centage on  what  she  sells  of  her  own 
work.  She  is  then  able  to  go  fre- 
qu.^ntly  to  New  York,  but  she  is  alway» 
liack  ready  for  duty  at  1  o'clock,  an^ 
keeps  the  little  place  open  until  9  la 
the  evening.  She  can  rest  and  read  in, 
her  own  room  in  the  back  part  of  her 
store,  which  is  corr\fortable  and  con- 
venient, and  has  her  dinner  sent  In. 
from  a   nearby   restaurant.

"Very  well,"  s:iid  Peer,  "eonie  tonior-

A  favorite  haunt  of  the  young  couple 
that  summer  was  IJumblebee  .Spring, 
the  winding  woodland  path  to  which 
leads  by  the  log  cabin  liome  of  Mis^^ 
Su.san  Lambert,  and  it  is  she  perhaps 
who  remembers  iJovernor  Wilson  .and 
His  bride  with  most  pleasure.  Her 
calun  has  taken  on  new  glories  since 
siie  can  boast  of  the  fa-  t  tnat  the  pres- 
eiii  governor  of  New  .leisey  sat  man.v 
a  time  in  her  little  shack,  and  she  is 
sure  that  there  was  never  a  couple  In 
llie  community  more  generally  liked  or 
who  knew  better  "how  to  treat  us 
mountain  folks."  Miss  Susan  Lambert 
thinks  that,  as  s!ie  calls  President 
Taft  "BiU"  and  Col.  Roosevelt  'TeddN,  ' 
she  ought  "by  rights"  to  call  Governor 
Wilson  "Woody,"  as  siie  knows  hiui 
and    likes    him    best.

Ch'mney  Rock  or  Pisgah  were  of  never 
failing  interest  to  the  less  ambitious 
e.xplorers  at  Arden.  and  Mr.  Wilsons 
sparkling  accounts  of  their  adven- 
tures, of  the  superb  views,  the  flowers 
and  the  birds  the.v  saw,  freciuently  in- 
spired   otheis    to    join    them. 

Toward  the  end  of  the  summer  iliey 
went  for  a  week's  driving  trip  through 
the  mountains  with  a  number  of 
friends,  among  them  Mrs.  Blaite  and 
Mrs.  Chapman  of  New  Orleans,  the 
daughters  of  Bishop  Polk  ( the  'Figlit-

The  Public  officials  of  Dulutii  sound-

city. 

The  free,  out-door  rinks  are  today 
one  of  the  most  liberally  patronized 
and  most  thoroughly  appreciated  insti- 
tutions  in    the   corporate    limits. 

Devotees  of  the  health-Kiving-  pas- 
time arc  numbered  in  all  ranks  and 
classes.  Thousands  of  them  make  lib- 
eral use  of  the  ices  when  the  v.eatl.er 
permits.  Not  only  the  children  and 
the  younsr  mm  and  women  take  advan- 
tage of  the  opportunity  thus  afforded 
for  healthful  exercise,  but  scores  of 
persons  of  advanced  years  are  fre- 
r;uently  seen  with  their  skates  enjoy- 
ing themselves  every  bit  as  much  as 
the  •kids,"  though  probably  not  as 
violently.

THE  LONDON  ROAD  RINK. 

f      Duluth  has  sixteen  free  rinks,   looat- 
i  ed  in   all   parts  of  the  city   from  Lake- 
j  side  to  West  Duluth  and  from  the  hill- 
;  side    to    the    canal.      Ten    of    them  *ire 
I  operated    and    maintained    by    the    park 
I  board    under    the    direction    of    the    sec- 
retary,   Henry    Cleveland. 
!       Mr.    Cleveland   likes   youngsters,   par- 
!  ticuhirly,     and     between     th^     rinks     in 
the  winter  and  the  playgrounds   in   the 
I  summer    he    has    endeared     himself    to 
1  hundreds    of    the    risintr    generation    in 
Duluth.     Always  he   has  endeavored   to 
instill  into  them  the  spirit  of  fair  play. 
The    other    six    rinks    are    maintained 
jointly    by    the    park    board    and    semi- 
public  or  civic  organizations.      In  some

GEORGE     ELIOT     WA.S     WELL    I'AID. 

The  Bookman:  In  one  of  George 
Meredith's   letters  he  says: 

"I  shall  send  you  the  Cornhill  maga- 
zine next  month.  The  author  of  •Ada.m 
Bede'  has  a  new  work  in  it.  I  under- 
stand they  have  given  her  an  enormous 
sum  (eight  thousand  pounds,  or  more! 
she  retaining  ultimate  copyright)  — 
Bon  Dieu:  will  aught  like  this  ever 
happen   to  ine?" 

As  this  letter  was  written  in  1862,  it 
is  oovious  that  he  refers  to  "Romola.'" 
tJoorge  Eliot  did  not  receive  the  exact 
sum  upon  vvliich  her  fellow  craftsman 
comments  so  characteristically,  but 
rumor  was  not  far  wrong.  It  appears 
that  Goorgo  Smith,  the  publisher,  was 
anxious  to  attract  well  known  names 
to  his  new  ventur-^,  and  he  in  reaiit> 
offered  the  author  of  'Adam  Bede"  tr-n 
thousand  pounds  for  the  n«w  book  she 
was   at    work   up^m. 

Though  the  offer  came  at  a  time 
when  siie  was  particularly  depressed 
at  the  slow  progress  she  was  making 
with  her  novel  of  the  Italian  Renais- 
sance, she  did  not  care  to  accept  it.  as 
she  hesitated  to  have  the  story  appear 
in  serial  form.  The  offer,  however,  en- 
couraged her  to  finish  her  laborious 
task,  and  it  was  ultimately  publish.fd 
serially,  in  fourteen  parts,  'since  Lewes 
f 'It  the  publicity  would  help  the  saTe. 
Smith  paid  7,000  pounds  for  the  copy- 
right, though  It  was  not  a  financial 
success;  Ooorge  Eliot,  in  fact,  after- 
ward gave  a  short  story.  ''Brother 
.laoob,"  to  offstand  the  publisher's 
loss.  In  book  form,  of  course,  it  Jus- 
tified    the     i)ublisher's     faith.

THE  DRAIN  ON  OUR  ENVIRONMENT. 

Drummond:        Without      environment 
there  can  be  no  life.     Seventy  per  cent, 

at  least,  of  the  human  body  is  made  of 
pure  water,  the  rest  of  gases  and 
earths.  These  have  iiU  come  from  en- 
vlronmont.  Through  the  secret  pores 
<if  the  skin  two  pounds  of  water  are 
exhaled  dally  from  every  healthy  aduU. 
The  supply  is  kept  up  by  eiivironmciit. 
The  environment  Is  really  an  unappro- 
priated art  of  ourselves.  Definite  pro- 
nortlons  are  continuously  abstracted 
from  It  and  added  to  tiie  organism. 
And  so  long  as  the  organism  continue.^ 
to  grow,  act,  think,  speak,  work  or 
perform  any  other  function  demanding 
a  supply  of  energy,  there  Is  a  constant 
simultaneous  and  proportionate  drain 
upon  its  surroundings.

by  the  city  have  warming  houses  and 
one  of  the  others  has  a  shelter

Secretary  Cleveland  has  been  instru- 
mental in  organizing  a  hockey  league 
among  the  boys  of  the  grade"  schools. 
He  has  given  them  the  full  use  of  the 
various  ices  every  Saturday  morning 
and  some  interesting  contests  aie  antic- 
ipated. Incidentally  some  excellent 
material  will  likely  be  developed  for 
the  bigger  teams  which  are  kepelng  Du- 
luth on  the  national  hockey  map.  No 
hockey  is  allowed  the  rest  of  the  week 
as  it  would  prevent  too  many  other 
people   from   using   the   ice. 


Ity." 

Speaking  further  about  Ibsen,  Mrs. 
Fiske  says  that  "Ibsen  is  splendid 
practice  for  one  must  studv  carefuUv 
to  reach  any  of  his  depths.  Thus  aside 
from  all  else,  he  is  a  benefit  to  tiie 
actor. 

"In  one  sense  Ibsen  is  like  Wag- 
ner. He  must  be  studied  by  those  who 
would  appreciate  his  work  as  well 
as  b.v  those  who  would  interpret  it. 
One  cannot  otherwise  get  below  the 
surface.  We  may  not  understand 
Wagner's  music,  but  it  yet  exerts  its 
fascination  upon  us.  And  Ibsen,  as  1 
said,     fascinates     the     intelligence." 

"Does  Ibsen  pay — to  touch  upon  a 
commercial    question?" 

"Yes,  it  does,"  emphatically  replied 
Mrs.  Fiske.  "It  is  a  mistake  to  think, 
as  so  many  do.  that  Ibsen  does  not  at- 
tract the  public:  that  lie  is  affected 
solely  by  a  »itrange  cult,  that  has  dis- 
tinguishing features  by  which  it  may 
be    recognized."

THE    BLIND    ABOUND    IN    SPAIN. 

William  Dean  Howells  in  the  North 
American  Review:  In  a  strange  coun- 
try all  the  details  of  life  are  interest- 
ing, and  we  noticed  with  peculiar  in- 
terest that  Spain  was  a  country  where 
the  prescriptions  were  written  in  the 
vulgar  tongue  instead  of  the  little 
prescriptions  are  ad- 
apothecaries  of  other 
dispose<l  to  praise  the 
the  art  for  this,  but 
our  doctor  forbade.  He  said  it  was  be- 
cause the  Spanish  apothecaries  were 
St.  unlearned  that  they  could  not  read 
even  so  little  Latin  "as  the  shortest 
prescription  contained.  Still,  I  could 
not  think  the  custom  a  bad  one,  though 
founded  on  Ignorance,  and  I  do  not 
see  why  It  should  not  have  been  made 
for  the  greatest  s:ifety  of  those  who 
took  the  medicine  if  those  who  put  it 
ui)  followed  a  formula  in  their  native 
tongue.  1  know  that,  at  any  rate, 
we  found  the  Spanish  medicines  bene- 
ficial, and  were  presently  suffered  to 
go  out  of  doors,  but  with  those  severe 
injunctions  against  going  out  after 
nightfall  or  opening  our  lips  when 
we  went  out  by  day.  It  was  rather  a 
bother,  but  It  was  fine  to  feel  oneself 
in  the  classic  Madrid  tradition  of  dan- 
ger from  pneum>)nia.  and  to  bo  of  the 
dignified  company  of  .Spanish  gentle- 
men whom  we  met  with  the  border 
of  their  cloaks  over  theli-  mouths,  like 
characters    In    a    cupa    y    espada    drama. 

There  was  almost  as  little  acted  as 
spoken  drama  in  the  streets.  1  have 
given  my  impression  of  the  songless- 
ness  of  .Spain  in  Madrid  as  elsewhere, 
but  if  there  w'as  no  great  singing  there 
was  often  street  playing  by  pathetic 
bands  of  Mind  minstrels  with  guitars 
and  mandolins.  The  blind  abound 
everywhere  in  Spain  in  that  profes- 
sion of  street  beggary  which  I  always 
encouraged,  believing,  as  I  do.  that 
comfort  in  this  uul>alanced  world  can- 
not be  too  constantly  reminded  of 
misery.  As  the  hunchbacks  are  In 
Italy,  or  th.e  wooden  peg-legged  In

Kroni  "Kln^is  of  the  Platform  and 
I'ulplt:"  JOdgar  Wilson  Nye  was  born 
in  Maine,  in  IS.M).  Aug.  2S.  but  at  2 
.V  cars  of  age  he  took  his  parents  by 
the  hand  and  telling  them  that  Pis- 
cataquis county  was  no  place  for 
them,  he  boldly  struck  out  for  St. 
I'loix,  Wis.,  where  the  hard*  young 
pioiieei'  socjn  Made  a  home  for  his  pai- 
cntH.  The  firnt  year  he  diCfVe  the  In-

suggested  to  tl:e  Northwestern  rail- 
road that  It  \vould  be  a  good  idea  to 
buihi  to  St.  I'aul  as  soon  as  the  < uni- 
pan\-  <  (3Uld  g»t  a  grant  which  would 
pay  them  twu  or  three  times  the  cost 
of  construct  loll.  The  following  .vear 
he  udoiited  trousers  an^  made  $175 
from  the  sale  of  wolf  scalps.  He  also 
cleared  twenty-seven  aere.s  of  land 
and  ajid  raised  some  watermelor.s.  In 
l.*^.'>4  he  estaliiished  and  endowed  a  dis- 
trict school  in  Pleasant  Valle>-.  It  was 
at  this  lime  that  he  began  to  turn 
his  attention  "o  the  abolition  of  slav- 
Piy  In  the  South  and  to  write  artlcies 
for  the  piepjr.  signed  "Vei  itas,"  in 
which  he  advocated  the  War  of  1^60.' 
or  as  s<ion  as  the  government  could  I 
get    around   to   it.  j 

In  IS'.,",  he  f:  raduated  from  the  farm  , 
and  began  the  study  of  law.  He  did 
not  advance  >ory  rapidly  in  his  pro- 
fession, failing  se\  eial  times  In  his 
examination,  and  giving  bonds  for  Irs 
appearance  at  the  next  term  of  couit. 
He  was,  however,  .a  close  student  of 
political  economy,  and  studied  per- 
sonal economv  at  the  same  time,  till 
he  found  that  he  could  live  on  10 
cents    a    day    jind     his    relatives    easily. 

Mr.  Nye  now  began  to  look  about 
him  for  a  new  country  to  build  up 
and  foster.  ?nd.  as  Wisconsin  had 
grown  to  he  sio  thickly  settled  in  the 
northwestern  part  of  the  state  that 
neighbors  were  freciuently  found  as 
near  as  five  miles  apart,  he  broka 
loose  fTojn  all  restraint  and  took  emi- 
grant rates  for  Cheyenne,  Wyo.  Here 
he  engaged  board  at  the  Inter-Ocean 
hotel,  and   beg.in   to  look   al)Out  him  for 


a    poE-ltlon    in    a    bfnk.      Not    succeeding 
in    this,    he    tried    the    law    and    journa- 
lism.    He  did    not   succeed    in    getting  a 
job  for  si>me   time,    but   fiiiallv   hired   a^ 
j  associate     editor     and     janitcir     of     the 
jl'iiamie     Sentinel.        The      Salary      was 
I  small,    but    his    lattitude    great,    and    he 
i  was    permitted    to    write    anything    that 
I  he    thought    would     please    the    jteople, 
whether    It    was    news    or    not. 

By  and  by  he  had  won  every  heart 
by  hih  gentle,  patient  poverty  and  his 
delightful  parsimonv  with  regard  to

an  order  on  a  restaurant  which  ad-

ON    PROPER    DIET. 

Dr.  Harvey  W.  Wiley  in  the  Wom- 
an's Home  Companion;  Much  stress  has 
been  laid  upon  the  undesirabilitv  of 
eating  freshly  baked  bread.  There  is 
no  doubt  of  the  fact  that  many  kinds 
of  bread  improve  to  a  certain  extent 
with  age.  Breads  which  are  baked 
with  yeast  or  salt  rising  are  types  of 
this  kind.  On  the  other  hand,  breads 
which  are  baked  with  so-called  baking 
powder  taste  better  when  warm  or  hot; 
and,  in  fact,  they  are  so  palatable  in  this 
condition  that  too  much  of  them  may 
be  >aten.  Wheat  is  the  premier  bread- 
making  material  of  the  world,  and 
when  eaten  whole  It  ts  a  complete 
food.  Too  much  grinding  and  bolting 
robs  it  of  much  of  its  valuable  qual- 
ities. From  the  point  of  view  of 
\\  holesomeness.  If  not  also  of  palata- 
blllty.  the  bread  carefully  prepared 
with  yeast  or  salt  rising  and  aged 
twelve  or  twentv-four  hours,  is  cer- 
tainly to  be  preferred  to  the  hastil>' 
prepared    baking    powder    bread. 

It  was  formerly  thought  that  the 
drinking  of  liquids  with  meals  wa.v 
highly  Injurious  and  'wobably  ti.e  over- 
drinking of  liquids  is  injurious.  Re- 
cent investigations.  however,  have 
shown  that  bad  etTects  resulting  from 
drinking  simple'  beverages  are  likely 
overestimated. 

Good  milk,  a  glass  of  water,  cider  or 
grape  juice,  and  eevn  a  little  tea  or 
coffee,  well  diluted  with  hot  milk  may 
l»e  taken  at  meals.  Tea  and  coffee 
form  but  a  temporary  stimulant,  due 
chiefly  to  an  alkaloid  caffeine  which 
they  contain.  Too  free  use  of  these 
beverages  causes  nerve  exhaustion  and 
dyspepsia. 

Women  should  be  specially  careful 
to  choose  the  right  diet.  For  the  sake 
of  her  beauty,  if  notliing  else,  a  wom- 
an should  choose  the  right  amount  of 
nutritive  foods,  and  avoid  the  tempta- 
tions of  overeating.  Coarser  bread. 
more  fruit,  less  meat,  and  especially 
moderation,  or  total  abstinence,  in  the 
use  of  tea  and  coffee  will  secure  re- 
lief from  the  all  too  retarded  ac- 
tion of  the  dlgesti\e  organs  which  is 
the  curse  of  sc^  many  women  who  lead 
sedentary  lives.  No  woman  who  eats 
properly  ami  gets  plenty  of  fresh  air 
and  exei'Cise  will  have  a  poor  com- 
plexion nor  get  too  fat  neither  will 
she  sun  or  from  nerves   and  hysteria. 

The  woman  who  lives  right,  thinks 
right,  and  works  right  may  bo  more 
beautiful  at  40  or  60  than  at  20  and  the 
preservation  of  the  divliie  gift  of 
beauty  is  a  duty  that  no  woman  should 
neglect  for  her  own  sake  and  the  sake 
of  the  world  about  her. 


MARCHIONESS  DI   RUDINI. 

The  Marchioiess  di  liudinl,  daugh- 
ter of  the  lat."  Henri  Labouchere.  I.s 
going  to  make  her  home  in  London 
this  year  for  m  change.  She  has  ex- 
hausted the  resources  of  the  foreign 
capitals.  She  is  petite,  extremely  hand- 
some, of  the  Spanish  typo,  naturally 
gifted  and  haa  a  handsome  fortune. 
She  always  dresses  strikingly  and  at 
a  recent  luncheoif  attracted  a  great 
deal  of  attention  because  she  had  a 
gold  serpent  tv.isted  around  the  whole 
length  of  one  arm  from  elbow  to 
wri.vt.  its  Jiead,  resting  on  her  hand, 
forming  a  ring  with  emerald  eyes. 


TRY    THIS  ON    VOIR    BABY. 

Harper's  Weekly:  The  n;itive  moflu-vs 
in  the  neig'nborhood  of  Simla,  in  India, 
have  a  curious  practice  of  putting  their 
babies'  heads  under  a  spout  of  water 
ill  crl«r  to  send  the  youngsteis  to 
^ileep  and  to  keep  them  quiet.  When  a 
new  cert  road  was  made,  some  years 
ago.  In  the  locality  mentioned,  there 
was  a  halting  place  where  rows  of 
such  child)  en  mlghl  be  seen  in  a  grove 
close    to   the    road. 

The  water  of  a  hill  spring  was  y.o 
adjusted  as  to  fuinish  a  series  of  llltle 
spouts  each  about  the  thickness  of 
one's  little  finger.  Opposite  each  spout 
wa3  a  kind  of  earth  pillow  and  a  little 
trough  was  so  laid  that  one  of  the 
water  spouts  played  on  the  top  its 
head,  and  the  water  then  ran  off  Into 
the  trough. 

An  English  official  testifies  that  the 
process  was  most  successful.  There 
never  ■were  such  quiet  and  untrouble- 
some  babies  as  those  under  the  spciuts. 
The  people  were  unanimous  in  assert- 
ing that  th*  water  did  the  children  no 
harm,  but  that,  on  the  contrary,  it 
benefited  and  Invigorated  them.  In 
fact,  the.-'  seemed  to  think  that  a  child 
not  subUrted  to  the  process  must 
grow  up  soft  brained  and  of  little  ac- 
count.

RULES  GQOD; 

PLAYERS  NEEDED 

Development   of  Perform- 
ers Rather  Than  Rule 
Reform  Required. 

Princeton,  X.  J.,  Dec.  25. — In  the 
opinion  of  William  W.  Roper,  former 
athletic  director  at  Princeton  univer- 
sity, there  Is  still  room  for  revision  in 
the  football  rule!?.  However,  the  for- 
mer TiKer  coach  thinks  tliat  the  great- 
est neo.l  at  the  present  time  is  that  of 
developing  players  under  the  existing 
rule.s  rather  than  making  continual 
olianges.  According  to  Ropers  way  of 
i  tliinking  the  piesent  rules  are  a  great 
improvement  over  the  old  code  or  tho 
new  revised  rules  of  the  last  few 
years.  In  discussing  the  new  rules  for 
the  benefit  of  Prineetonians  Mr.  Roper 
says   in   the   Daily   Princetonian: 

'In  the  winter  of  1910  the  rule 
'  makers  had  one  main  object  in  view,  to 
which  they  devoted  practically  all  their 
I  attention — namely,  to  revise  the  rules 
;  so  as  to  make  footV'all  safe.  Dittie  tim<' 
,  was  passed  on  anything  else,  owing 
j  to  the  insistent  demands  from  ail 
;  quarters    for    a   safe   game. 

'The  seasons  of  1910  and  1911 
I  clearly  demonstrated  to  all  tliat  the 
I  football  rules  favored  the  defensive 
;  team.  This,  however,  is  not  the  case 
to  such  an  extent  today.  A  great  strid" 
;  has  been  taken  in  the  right  direction 
\  by  eliminating  small  technical  points. 
j  "iluch  more  can  \tt  be  done  in  this 
I  same  direction.  In  the  first  place,  the 
!  rule  requiring  a  forward  pass  to  b'- 
j  made  five  yards  behind  the  line  of, 
I  scrimmage  should  be  abolished.  There  1 
I  is  not  the  slightest  reason  for  this  re- 
;  .^triction,  and  it  putij  too  great  a  tax  ! 
I  upon  the  referee.  Anotlier  innovation! 
I  this  year  is  the  rule  allowing  a  for- 
!  ward  riass  to  be  made  by  a  plaver  ten 
I  yards  or  le.^s  behind  the  goal  line. 
•  This  is  a  rule  wliieh  is  unnecessarv; 
i  I-lay  should  be  confined  to  the  field  be- 
I  tween  the  goal  posts. 
I  "'More  strength  yet  should  be  given 
.  to  the  team  on  the  offense.  The  onsido 
i  kick  for  instance  is  a  verv  effective 
play  that  is  abolished  under  the  exist- 
,  ing  rules.  It  should  be  allowed  with- 
;  out  any  restrictions;  in  fact,  kicking 
j  in  every  way  sliould  be  encouraged. 
I  The  iinslde  kick  developa  kicking  on 
'  the  run  and  the  accurate  placing  of 
kicks. 

"But    with    these    f«»w    addition.^    the 

rules  should      be     left     strietlv     alone. 

Every    one   of    the   larger    teams   is    too 

prone    by    far    to   confine    their    plav    to 

the    beaten    path.     Tlie    poj^sibilities    of 

;  the   open   game   under  t)it    present   sy^-

i  velcped."' 


JIMMY  BRADY  HAS  THE 

FEBER  OE  DOUGHERTY 

Chicago  Boy  Shows  Speed.  Science  and  Generalship 
Against  Sturdy  Fighter  From  Denver. 


.limmy  Brady,  the  clever  little  Chi- 
o-ago  fealhei  weight  and  Manager 
George  Barney  returned  yesteiday 
from^  International  Falls,  where  Brady 
fought  fifteen  fast  and  hard  rounds 
j  tt.  a  draw  with  Tommy  Douglierty,  the 
great    little    Denver    fighter. 

It    was    one    of    the    best    and    fastest 
fights    that    has    ever   been    seen    at    In- 
ternational   Falls.      Brady    was   the   ag-

i       To  "Show    tlie   elass   of   the   boy   Brady 
j  met    it   is   only   necessary    to   ."^tate    that 
I  Dougherty    has    fought    a    no    decision

Jack  White  a  no-decision  bout  at  Kala- 
mazoo  in   October.    1910.     Frankie  Con- 
ley  and  Paul   Slkora   are   two  others  of 
the     high-class     boys     that     Dougherty 
has    met,    and    he    has    alvv-ays    held    liis 
own   in   this   higli-up   ring  company. 

By  more  than  holding  liis  own  in  a 
fight  against  a  boy  who  lias  l>een 
groomed  for  the  featherweight  cham- 
pionship, Brady  is  entitled  to  the 
ehance    of    meeting    some    of    the    best 


featherweights  In  the  ring.  The  little 
Chieago  boy,  by  his  cleverness,  ring 
generalhhip  and  speed,  has  worked  his 
way  right  up  to  the  first  steps  tiiat 
lead  to  tlie  long  climb  ro  the  feather- 
weight throne,  tind  there  are  a  large 
nunil.er  of  personal  friends  of  the 
gentlemanly  little  chap  fiom  Chicago 
wlso  would  like  to  hear  of  Jimmy  be- 
ing matche<l  will  some  of  the  best  men 
in    his   elass. 

"Dougherty  is  one  of  the  best  and 
toughest  little  men  in  llie  fighting 
game,"  said  Manager  George  Barney 
yesterday.  "He  is  one  of  the  most 
rugged  kids  in  t  le  fighting  game.  We 
gave  them  a  rea  figiit,  one  of  tiie  best 
that  has  been  sten  for  years,  and  the 
result  of  this  meeting  places  .Jimmy 
right  in  line  foi  a  craek  at  some  of 
the  fellows  who  are  sparring  foi-  the 
ehamjiionsliip.  In  anotlier  .\ear  Brady 
will  Ix-  jtady  for  a  erack  at  the  title. 
He  is  filling  out  and  getting  stronger 
every  day.  He  is  only  a  kid  in  years 
and  he  i.s  bound  to  get  better.  Jimmy 
nevi-r  drinks  noi-  dissipates  in  an.v  way, 
and  he  is  tlie  kind  of  a  boy  that  it 
will  be  hard  to  keep  away  from  a 
chance  at   the  title.' 

According  to  i  eports  from  the  fight, 
both  boys  fought  hard  and  fast 
throughout,  witli  Brady  having  the 
most  sclen«e  an.l  being  able  to  inflict 
the  most  punishment.  The  <'hieago 
boy  didn't  have  a  mark  to  show  for 
his  work,  while  the  reports  slate  tliat 
Dougherty  was  tiadly  eut  up  and  was 
a  very  badly  worn  lad  at  the  end  of 
the    battle.

HENRY  ORDEMANN. 

Hundreds  of  the  Duluth  friend.s  of  Henry  Ordemann,  the  "Big  Norsk,"  will 
be  pleased  to  learn  that  the  genial  Minneapolis  boy  has  returned  to  the  form 
that  made  him  one  of  the  greatest  of  all  the  American  wrestlers.  Last  season 
Ordemann  was  far  from  his  true  form.  Business  reverses,  with  the  consequent 
mental  worry,  made  the  powerful  big  Norwegian  lose  weight  and  when  he  met 
some  of  his  opponents  towards  the  latter  part  of  the  season,  he  was  l>ut  a 
shadow  of  his  former  self.  George  A.  Barton,  sporting  editor  of  the  Minneapolis 
Daily  News,  and  one  of  the  real  sporting  authorities  of  tlie  Northwest,  writes 
that  Ordemann  has  recovered  his  old  form,  has  taken  on  welglit,  and  that  he 
confidently  expects  him  to  decisively  defeat  Jess  Westergaard.

DONLIN  TO  QUAKERS. 

star  Outfielder  of  Giants  Is  Released 
to  Philadelphia. 

New  York,  Dec.  25. — Secretary  John 
Heydler  of  the  National  league  has  an- 
nounced that  Mike  Donlin,  formerly 
star  outfielder  of  the  local  team,  had 
been  released  by  the  Pittsburg  club  to 
Philadelphia.  Pittsburg  recently  asked 
for  waivers  on  Donlin,  and  as  the  Phil- 
adelphia club  refused  to  waive,  he  was 
awarded  to   it. 

Philadelphia  is  the  si.vth  National 
league  club  with  whicli  Donlin  las 
been  as.'-ociated.  He  has  played  with 
i^t.  Louis,  Cincinnati,  Boston,  New 
York  and  Pittsburg,  and  was  also  a 
member  of  tho  (^Id  Baltimore  American 
league   team. 

.Mr.  Heydler  said  tonight  he  expected 
to  leave  for  Aiken,  S.  C.  the  latter 
part  of  this  week  to  Join  the  schedule 
conference,  which  was  to  have  been 
held  in  i^avannali,  but  whicii  it  was  to- 
day decided  to  hold  in  Aiken  to  suit 
the  convenience  of  Mr.  Dreyfus,  who 
has  been  at   tliat   resort   for   liis   healtii. 

Tile  Pittsburg  magnate  is  a  member 
of  the  National  league  schedule  com-

TO  ARRANGE^SCHEOULES 

Chicago,  Dec.  2C. — President  .Johnson 
of  the  American  league  left  last  night 
for  Aiken.  S.  C,  where  he  will  join 
Barney  Dreyfus,  owner  of  the  Pitts- 
burjf  Xationals.  and  draft  the  iai3 
scliedule.s  of  the  two  ma.tor  leagues. 
The  schedules  will  be  presented  for 
adoption  at  a  meeting  of  the  league 
to  be  held  in  N;;w  York  l?i  February. 

Johnson  represents  tlie  sched\ile 
committee  of  tho  American  league  and 
Dreyfus  is  a  member  of  the  schedule 
body  of  the  National  league. 


If  present  plans  are  carried  out  the 
United  States  is  to  have  a  definite  and 
undisputed  champion  o"f  the  middle- 
weight wrestling  class,  l^arly  in  the 
year  the  athletic  club  of  this  city  un- 
dertook the  somewhat  laborious  propo- 
sition of  bringing  the  best  middle- 
weights  in  the  world  tog^jther.  Yes- 
terday came  the  information  tluit  Mike 
Yokel,  the  Salt  Lake  City  wonder  has 
almost  decided  to  meet  Walter  Miller 
shortly   after  the   first  of   the   year. 

Many  wrestlers  have  shouted  the  re- 
tirement threat.  But  Mike  Yokel  says 
he  is  really  going  to  quit  at  the  end  of 
the  ijresent  season,  and  enter  business 
at  Salt  Lake  City.  He  also  says  he  is 
just  as  anxious  to  meet  Miller  as  the 
Pole  professes  he  is  to  tangle  with  the 
stocky  vouth  of  the  Mormon  city.  Yokel 
tritely  adds  that  he  wants  the  money 
for    wrestling    for    the    enampionship. 

A  crowd  of  St.  Paul  business  men 
want  the  match  to  be  wrestled  in  the 
big  St.  Paul  Auditorium,  which  is  cap- 
able of  holding  some  5,000  people.  Kan- 
sas City  wants  the  boys  to  wrestle  be- 
fore Bill  Scovilles  club,  which  has 
staged  some  of  the  biggest  matches 
wrestled  in  the  West.  St.  Paul  will 
offer  the  two  men  a  per  cent  of  the 
gioss  receipts  and  Kansas  City  will 
make  an  offer  of  a  flat  purse,  the  two 
wrestlers  to  decide  among  themselves 
the    winner's    and    losers    end. 

Yesterday  the  Greater  Duluth  club 
of    this    city    mailed    to    Yokel    an    offer 


CRACK  SWIMMERS 
MAY  BE  MATCHED 

C.   M.   Daniels   and   Duke 

Kahanamoku  Likely  to 

Decide  Supremacy. 

New  York,  Dec.  26. — No  item  of 
swimming  news  has  in  years  created 
such  a  stir  in  aquatic  circles  as  the 
recent  report  that  a  match  race  at  100 
yards  would  take  place  this  season  be- 
tween C.  M.  Daniels,  American,  and 
Duke  Kahanamoku,  the  Olympic  PJO 
meter    champion    and    record    holder. 

Kver  since  the  lanky  Hawaiian  broke 
into  the  limelight  about  a  year  ago 
followers  of  swimming  in  this  country 
have  been  eager  to  see  him  idtted 
against  the  great  Mercury  foot  pad- 
dler.  wliom  they  still  look  .ipon  as  un- 
defeatable.  At  first  jDanieKs  had  al- 
ready announced  his  permanent  retire- 
ment from  the  competitive  field  for 
liis  many  business  and  social  engage- 
ments no  longer  permitted  his  training 
and  he  refused  to  reconsider  his  de- 
eislon.  It  looks  now,  however,  as  if 
the  meeting  would   be  arranged. 

A  few  days  ago  Daniels  paid  a  visit 
to  the  New  York  Athletic  club  nata- 
torlum.  He  had  not  done  any  swim- 
ming for  several  months  and  curiosity 
about  his  form  led  him  to  go  a  100- 
yard  trial  under  the  watch.  He  sur- 
prised himself  and  everyone  present 
when  he  tore  off  the  century  in  :56  1-5, 
within  one-fifth  of  the  best  time  he 
ever  made  In  the  slow  local  pool.  Im- 


cf  a  very  liberal  per  cent  of  the  gross 
receipts  and  round  trip  transportation 
from  Salt  Lake  City  to  Duluth,  also 
requesting  that  he  come  here  a  week 
before  the  match  and  complete  his 
tiaining  here. 

Miller  -wants  the  contest  to  be  de- 
cided in  Duluth.  Walter  believes  that 
a  bona  fide  match  for  the  championship 
will  draw  larger  here  than  in  St.  Paul, 
and  he  also  believes  that  the  wrest- 
lers' end  will  be  larger  than  the  purse 
offered  bv  the  Kansas  City  club, 
SI. son.  At  least  the  little  Pole  is  will- 
ing to  gamble  on  the  percentage  end. 
and  if  Yokel  agrees  to  25  per  cent  of 
the  gross  and  expenses,  it  is  not  btj- 
lleved  that  Miller  will  interpose  any 
objections  to  the  final  signing  of  all 
articles  of  the   contract. 

One  of  these  great  little  men  munt 
win.  They  stand  in  each  other's  path. 
Yokel'  blocks  Millers  progress — like- 
wise Miller  is  the  stumbling  obstruc- 
tion   in    the   claims    of   Yokel. 

If  one  of  these  boys  claims  the  ti- 
tle, any  one  familiar  with  the  matches 
of  the  past  can  say,  "How^  about  Millor 
beating  you  in  St.  Paul?"  or  "Didn't 
Yokel  hand  you  something  out  In  Salt 
Lake   City.   Miller?' 

These  boys  have  to  settle  this  old 
score,  and  the  sooner  they  settle  it  the 
more  satipfled  will  be  the  large  num- 
ber of  wrestling  fans  who  have  been 
waiting  since  early  fall  to  see  the  lit- 
tle giant  of  Salt  Lake  City  oppose  the 
Pole. 


mediately  his  old  teammates  clustered 
around  him,  begging  him  to  consent 
to  devote  just  one  more  season  to  tlie 
sport,  that  he  might  try  conclusions 
with    Kahanamoku. 

He  was  at  first  obdurate,  but  so  In- 
sistant  were  his  friends  that  he  finally 
agreed  to  do  some  work  and  talte 
on  the  Islander  in  a  friendly  match,  if 
the  latter  was  willing.  Of  re-entering 
open  competition  he  would  not  hear. 
Still,  a  match  is  a  match  and,  whether 
held  privately  or  publicly,  It  will  just 
the  same  prove   a   test   of  supremacy.

New  York,  l>ec.  25. — Frank  Leroy 
Chance  will!  manage  the  New  York 
American  league  club  in  1913.  The 
Ileal  which  brings  him  to  Gotham  hae 
not  been  consummated;  it  is  simply  a 
question  of  a  few  days  when  it  will 
be  closed.  Tlie  "Peerless  Leader"  may 
be  regarded  alreaUy  as  a  Gotham  fix- 
ture. Chance  will  be  the  highest  sal- 
aried  baseball  manager,   Frank   F'arrcll 

having  intimattu  that  his  new  man- 
ager will  receive  more  than  even  Mc- 
Graw,   who  gets   $ls,00(i  a  year. 

It  all  seems  too  good  to  be  true.  A 
year  ago  any  prophe.t  who  should  have 
declared  th^  remotest  probability  of 
the  great  Cub  general  being  allowed  to 
forswear  his  allegiance  to  the  National 
league  would  liave  been  considered  a 
tit  subject  for  the  alienists.  Chance, 
in  Chicago  at  least,  was  an  institution 
— a  greater  inotitution  than  even  the 
National  league.  Peculiar  circum- 
stances over  which  the  National  league 
had  little  control  formed  the  oppor- 
tunity for  "Husk's"  transfer  to  the 
younger  rival,  where,  doubtless,  he 
will  be  far  more  appreciated  than  he 
\\as    by    Charles    W.    Murphy. 

Just  what  the  National  league  loses 
in  Frank  Chance  time  alone  will  tell. 
Certainly  he  can  stand  on  his  rccoid 
as  one  of  the  most  wonderful  leaders 
the  national  pastime  has  ever  seen. 
Not  even  the  great  John  J.  McGraw,  of 
Giant  fame,  can  show  such  an  illus- 
trious career.  Chance  made  a  million- 
aire of  C.  W.  Murph5*  by  his  baseball 
brains.  He  piloted  tiie  Cubs  through 
seven  campaigns,  during  which  time 
he  wen  four  pennants,  two  worlds 
championships,  finished  second  twice 
and  as   bad  as  a   good   third   only   once. 

Now,  with  such  a  record  as  that  be- 
hind him  it  does  seem  strange  that 
Chance  should  be  passed  up  by  every 
club  owner  of  the  circuit  for  which 
he  earned  so  much  renown.  The  an- 
swer is  simple.  An  after-clap  of  the 
row  that  split  up  Chance  from  Murphy 
left  the  associates  of  the  pudgy  Chi- 
cago potentate  apprehensive  of  the 
mental  condition  of  the  greatest  gen- 
eral   in    Tom    Lynch's    circuit. 

.Murphy  painted  Chance  as  a  mental 
wreck,  and  for  a  time  Murphy's  col- 
leagues foolishly  believed  that  tale. 
Those  rivals  who  had  iKit  already  pro- 
vided against  managers  for  the  com- 
ing season  eliminated  him  from  the 
teckoning,  spurred  toward  this  trend 
doubtless  bv  the  knowledge  that 
Cl.ance  would  accept  no  ordinary 
terms. 

Chnnce  Foreswore   Old   I^enjtiie. 

A\'hen  lie  parted  ways  with  Murphy. 
Chance  declared  himself  through  with 
the  NatVinal  league.  He  was  in  a  po- 
sition to  assume  Independence.  He  is 
possessed  of  fully  $250,000 — or  prop- 
erty which  such  a  sum  represents — 
and  he  could  afford  to  talk  in  high  fig- 
ures. There  were  just  two  cities  in 
baseball  that  could  afford  to  pay  such, 
high  tariff — New  York  and  Chicago. 
There  was  no  berth  in  the  \Vlndy  City: 
hence  New  York's  supplications  car- 
ried   some    weight. 

If  Frank  Chance  had  been  connected 
with  anv  promoter  but  Murphy  it  is 
very  doubtful  if  he  could  have  received 
a  release  from  the  National  league. 
But  Murphy  acted  very  shamefully 
toward  the  man  who  had  made  him  a 
baseball  success.  Sympathy  and  senti- 
ment were  thrown  into  the  balance 
with  the  Peerless  Trader.  Charles 
Webb  Murphy  had  ideas  of  crushing 
tnd  belittling  his  wonderful  field  gen- 
eral by  reducing  him   to  a  minor  play- 

^"SuT'the' National  league  .to  Its  great 
credit  it  mav  be  said,  came  to  the  res- 
cue and  forced  Murphy  to  be  good. 
Murpliy  happened  to  be  in  bad  favor 
with  the  graces  at  the  t  me.  He  had 
to  plav  fair  through  personal  motives. 

August  Herrmann,  chairman  of  the 
national  commission  and  owner  of  the 
Cincinnati  Reds,  was  chiefly  instru- 
mental in  securing  Chance  for  Frank 
Farrell's  Highlanders.  When  Murphy 
cast  off  the  Peerless  Leader  Ban  .John- 
son went  to  the  iront  for  him.  Herr- 
mann had  already  opened  negotiations 
for  Joe  Tinker  to  lead  his  Reds,  and 
"ave  his  word  that  he  would  help  the 
American  league  to  the  services  of 
Chicago's  Idol,  provided  no  National 
h  ague  club  wished  to  put  in  a  olalm. 
Herrman  kept  his  word  and  Chance  is 
coming   here. 

C'hanee    a    Baneball    Hero. 

"T  would  never  have  dreamed  of  look- 
ing farther  for  a  manager."  said  Herr- 
mann here  a  few  days  ago,  "if  I  ha<l 
known  before  I  promised  the  Job  to 
Tinker  that  there  was  any  possibility 
of  Chance  leaving  Chicago.  I  consider 
him  one  of  the  greatest  baseball  men 
of  history;  a  leader  surpassed  by  none.  I 
would  willingly  have  paid  him  a  record 
salary,  for  I  think  him  worth  it  In 
every  respect.  I  am  sure  that  Chance 
would  have  been  in  the  greatest  de- 
mand if  all  the  National  league  clubs 
had  not  either  been  provided  with 
managers  or  at  least  pledged  them- 
selves to  some   desirable  candidates. 

"This  talk  of  Chance  being  a  neryou.<» 
or  mental  \s  reck  Is  all  'tommy-rot.'" 
Mr  Herrmann  continued.  "1  know  for 
a  fact  that  he  Is  as  bright  and  quick- 
witted as  ever  In  his  life.  Before  I  put 
through  the  deal  for  Joe  Tinker  I 
looked  upon  Chance  as  a  second  strinc- 
to  my  bow.  I  had  an  agent  with  him 
for  several  weeks,  and  the  reports  of 
his  condition  were  eminently  satisfac- 
tory. Indeed,  I  may  say  that  Chance 
enjoys   better   health    now   than    for   a 


number  of  years  and  it  would  not  sur- 
prise me  a  bit  if  he  figures  more  or 
lees  in  the  pla>  ing  end  of  the  game 
in   1913. 

"I  was  awfully  sorry  to  see  Chance 
leave  tiie  Natlcral  league,  which  owes 
him  so  much.  But  I,  like  the  rest  of 
my  fellow  promjteis,  felt  him  too  big 
and  too  great  a  man  to  be  thwarted  in 
any  chance  for  'oettering  himself.  New 
York  will  be  abic  to  pay  him  a  .salary 
fitting  his  abilitv.  Chance  will  take  to 
the  American  league  the  very  best 
wishes  of  all  i-»is  staunch  National 
league    friends.'" 

C'hanee    AUvayM   MoGraw's   Rival. 

So  Chance  is  -oir.lng  and  New  York 
will  have  the  greatest  pair  of  baseball 
characters  before  the  public  in  him 
and  in  his  time- honored  rival,  John  J. 
MeGraw.  For  years  these  two  men 
have  been  the  rr.ost  bitter  enemies,  but 
only  in  the  bitterness  of  rivalry.  Each 
is  a  fighter  from  the  ground  up,  never 
asking  quarter    ind   never  giving  it. 

Off  the  basebiJl  field,  thougli.  it  is  a 
different  story.  McGraw  has  the  utmost 
admiration  for  Frank  Chance;  the  "Big 
Bear"  appreciates  the  full  worth  of  the 
adversary  who  made  the  name  of  the 
Giants  a   by-word   from  ocean  to  ecean. 

The  hand  of  destiny  is  mysterious  in 
its  dealings.  The  bitterest  combats  of 
Frank  Chance's  life  were  fouglit  out 
before  the  antagonistic  crowds  at  the 
Polo  grounds.  There,  in  1908.  through 
tile  fine  technieallties  of  organized 
baseball  law,  tlie  Peerless  Leader  led 
his  celebrated  Cubs  to  a  pennant  and 
consequent        world's  championship 

which  by  all  right  of  valor  belonged 
to  J.  J.  McrGa-v  and  his  Giants  Yet 
Chance  comes  here  to  make  his  home, 
at  least  temporarily,  on  these  same 
picturesque  grounds,  below  Coogan's 
Bluff. 

For  the  Yankees  will  use  the  Brush 
stadium  as  their  home  in  1913;  and  the 
crowds  that  peited  cushions  and  pop 
bottles  at  the  fighting  face  of  "Husk" 
four  short  seasons  ago  will  he  out 
there  next  spring  rooting  their  heads 
off  for  his  sucfess,  still  as  a  rival  of 
McGraw  but  in  a  far  broader  sense  of 
the  word.  F'or  Chance  may  still  win 
pennants  without  affecting  the  chances 
of   the   idolized    Giants. 


MANY  AMATEURS 

ENTER  BOXING  SHOW. 

Interest  in  the  amateur  boxing 
tournament  that  has  been  set  for  Jan. 
22  at  the  Duluth  Auditorium,  continues 
to  increase.  Arthur  Ryberg,  amateur 
boxer  and  instructor  of  a  number  of 
beys  here,  state.!  yesterday  that  he  had 
some  of  the  cleverest  amateurs  in  the 
Northwest  to  compete  for  the  gold 
nicdals.  and  that  those  who  love  clean 
sport  are  goin?  to  see  some  classv 
bouts. 

There  are  something  like  twenty  en- 
trants to  date.  At  least  six  bouts 
will  be  staged  during  the  evening,  ac- 
cording to  Ryberg,  and  every  bout 
promises    to    be    a    corker. 

Charley  Willis  of  the  Duluth  Audi- 
torium stated  yesterday  that  he  has 
one  of  the  very  best  amateurs  in  the 
state  and  that  this  lad  is  out  to  win 
one  of  the  medals.  He  stated  that  his 
boy  might  be  pitted  against  young 
Eddie  Eerry,  Jimmy's  young  brother, 
and  in  this  event  the  spectators  are 
bound  to  see  one  of  the  cleverest  bouts 
that  could  be  possibly  held  between 
amateurs. 

As  planned  by  Mr.  Ryberg,  the 
tournament  to  be  conducted  at  the 
Auditorium  will  be  absolutely  free 
f r(  m  any  cbiect  lonable  features.*  Only 
amateurs  will  be  permitted  to  partici- 
pate and  every  effort  will  be  made  to 
make  each  bou(  fast,  clever  and  a  fine 
exhibition  of  the  very  best  side  of 
boxing. 

Art  Ryberg  will  be  the  referee  of  all 
the  bouts,  and  in  case  he  should  find 
it  difficult  to  make  a  decision,  two 
judges  seated  ty  the  ringside  will  as- 
sist   in    picking   the    winner.

Sheriff-Elect  of  Gary,  Ind.,  Refuses 
to  lie  Lenient. 

Chicago,    Dec.     2.'». — On    the    heels    of 

the  .announcement  that  Gary,  Ind., 
would  be  open  to  Chicago  boxers  on 
Jan.  1.  came  the  information  that  the 
first  statement  was  untrue. 

Chicago  boxing  promoters  issued  the 
first  statement  and  Sheriff-elect  Henry 
Whittaker,  in  whose  bailiwick  the 
proposed  bouts  were  to  take  place,  the 
.second.  Most  of  the  fighters  are  In- 
clined to  take  the  sheriffs  word,  and 
there  is  gloom  in  sporting  circles  rs 
a  result.  The  jihoriff  will  be  sworn  in 
to  office  on  Jen.  1.  the  day  the  first 
bouts  were  ad.ertlsed  to  take  place. 
When  Whittaker  heard  of  the  proposed 
bovits  he  was  indl.irnant. 

Promoters  a-e  hoping  the  sheriff 
will   relent  and  permit   bouts  later. 


Moll  Quite  ill. 


Madison,  Wl.<=..  Dec.  25.  —  John  E. 
(Keckle)  Moll,  former  TTniyerslty  of 
Wisconsin  quarterback  and  Purdue  unU 
verslty  coach,  is  seriously  ill  with  ty- 
phoid fever.  His  condition  yesterday 
was  said  to  be  worse.  Relatives  were 
summoned  to  tlie  hospital  where  he  is 
confined. 


Cliiogo,  Dec.  25. — The  News  today- 
prints  the  following: 

•Parson"  Davies,  who  was  the  mana- 
ger of  Peter  Jackson,  the  greatest  ne- 
gro pugilist  of  the  early  days  of  box- 
ing, thinks  the  white  n.an  never  agaia 
will  box  the  colored  fighter.  The  col- 
ored boxer  has  lost  his  one  golden 
chance  to  battle  for  the  championsliip 
of  the  world,  thinks  this  veteran  fight 
authority. 

•I  believe,"  said  Davies.  "that  the 
white  boxers  in  the  future  will  con- 
duct championship  battles  among' 
them.selves,  and  if  the  negroes  desire 
to  fight  for  titles  the  competitions  will 
be    among    men    of   black   skin. 

"True,  blacks  and  whites  may  be 
pitted  against  one  another  in  unim- 
portant bouts,  but  the  tendency  is  to 
separate  the  races  on  account  of  the 
prejudices  that  pi-evail  ^against  such 
contests.  Boxing  promoters  have  the 
example  of  baseball  magnates  befora 
them.  It  is  true  there  is  no  rule  of 
organized  baseball  tlsat  would  prevent 
a  negro  becoming  a  member  of  a  na- 
tional agreement  eiub,  but  there  is  a 
tacit  understanding  that  negroes  shall 
not   be   signed. 

"The  boxing  authorities  are  appar- 
ently following  out  that  idea,  and  it 
will  result  in  the  elimination  of  the 
negro  from  pugilism  within  a  few 
years.  Those  black  men  who  desire 
to  box  will  be  compelled  to  compete 
amcng  theruseles.  This  condition*  of 
affairs  was  only  brougiit  about  recent- 
ly. 

8tlll  L,fke!4  JaekMon. 
"However,  if  all  of  the  negro  box- 
ers conducted  tliemseUes  as  Peter 
Jackson  did,  there  would  not  be  the 
prejtidice  that  now  exists  in  the  pub- 
lic mind.  Jackson  was  an  exception- 
al negro  in  all  respects.  He  was  re- 
markably intelligent,  fairly  well  edu- 
cated, could  converse  on  many  sub- 
jects and  was  quiet  and  unobstrusive  in 
manner.  In  my  opinion  he  not  only 
was  the  greatest  heavyweight  box- 
er of  his  day,  but  I  question  if  any  of 
his  successors  possess  the  class  <hat 
he  possessed  when  he  was  in  his 
prime. 

"When  Jackson  was  beaten  by  Jef- 
fries the  negro  was  a  mere  shadow  of 
his  former  self  and  never  should  have 
been  permitted  to  fight  the  bolier- 
maker.  Had  I  been  in  charge  of  Jack- 
sons  affairs  at  that  time  he  never 
would  have  entered  the  ring  against 
Jeffries.  Jackson  was  done  for  and 
should  have  been  sent  home  to  Aus- 
tralia. 

"In  addition  to  being  a  wonderful 
fighter.  Jackson  was  a  humane  box- 
er. He  disiiked  to  punisii  an  opponent 
and  was  the  only  boxer  I  ever  heard 
of  refusing  a  match  because  he 
thought  his  prospective  opponent  was 
outclassed.  1  matched  Jackson  with 
McCarthy  in  San  Francisco  and  Jack- 
son told  me  he  would  not  box  a  man 
so   Inferior   to   himself. 

"I    Informed    Jackson    that    if   he    ex- 

Eected  me  to  get  a  man  who  would 
eat  him  I  would  have  to  resign  as 
his  manager.  1  also  impressed  on 
him  that,  as  boxing  was  a  business 
and  the  monetary  side  of  it  must  be 
considered  .it  was  up  to  him  to  box 
McCarthy.  He  finally  consented,  but 
said  he  would  dispose  of  McCarthy  as 
soon  as  possible  in  order  to  spare  him 
punishment.  Jackson  settled  McCarthy 
in    a    few    rounds. 

No    Credit    to    Corbett. 

"Jim  Corbett  has  received  much 
praise  for  staying  sixty-one  rounds 
with  Jackson,  but  it  should  not  bo 
overlooked  that  I'eter  was  on  one  foot 
at  the  time,  having  turned  his  ankle  a 
few   days    before   the   bout. 

"One  thing  not  generally  known 
that  Jackson  was  once  practically 
matched  with  Sullivan.  President 
'  Fulda  of  the  California  Athletic  club, 
who  had  been  trying  to  get  Jackson 
and  Sullivan  in  the  ring,  received  a 
telegram  from  Sullivan  consenting  to 
a  match.  As  Jackson  was  always 
eager  for  a  bout  with  the  Boston  boy, 
the  match  was  practically  clinched. 
Fulda  was  arranging  the  details  when 
suddenly  an  unfortunate  occurrence 
threw    the   entire   affair   In    the   air. 

"Two  novices,  in  order  to  settle  a 
grudge,  got  Into  the  ring  of  a  small 
club  in  San  Francisco  and  one  of  them 
died  as  a  result  of  the  punishment  he 
received.  The  fatality  put  a  damper 
on  the  boxing  game  on  the  coast  for 
several  years,  and  the  Sullivan-Jack- 
son match  went  a-glimmerlng.  Jack- 
son later  tried  to  reopen  negotiations, 
but  the  white  champion  seemed  to 
have  lost  all  Interest  in  the  proposed 
contest. 

"This  should  effectually  dispose  of 
the  claim  of  Sullivan  that  he  always 
drew  the  color  line.  I  personally 
know  that  Sullivan  wa«  sitting  in  the 
ring  In  a  hall  In  Boston  ready  to  go 
on  with  a  match  with  George  (Jod- 
frey.  when  the  police  interfered.  1 
have  no  doubt  that  Fulda  still  haa 
the  telegram  he  received  from  Sulli- 
van In  reference  to  the  match  with 
Jackson. 

**As  the  case  now  stands  In  the 
heavyweight  division.  Jeanette  and 
Langford  outclass  all  the  white  heavies 
and  If  the  wlnne.-  of  Tom  McCarey's 
white  hope  tournament  was  pitted 
against  either  of  the  negroes.  It  Is  a 
foregone  conclusion  that  the  black 
chap  would  be  the  victor.  The  chances 
tliat  the  winner  (f  the  white  boxing 
tournament  will  slmplv  claim  the 
heavyweight  champhmshtp  of  .\mer- 
Ica  and  refuse  to  fleht  a  ne.trro  a'-e 
pood.  I  see  that  McCarty  has  already 
drawn    the    e<ilor   line."

I  A  REPUBLICAN'S  TRIP  TO 

HEART  OF  DICKENS  UND 


Rochester  a  Hard  Place 
to  Reach,  But  It  Re- 
pays Those  Who  Know 
It  as  Cloisterham.         I 

X  retrospfct  It  becomes  ever 
clearer  and  clearer  that  with- 
out Trabb's  boy  the  simple 
republican's  visit  to  Rochester 
would  not  have  been  the  un- 
qualified success  it  undoubt- 
edly was,  says  the  New  York 
Times.  Without  Trabb's  boy  the  re- 
publican would  not  even  have  known 
when  she  got  to  Rochester.  The 
South  Eastern  &  Chatham  railway  Is 
noted  for  idiosycrasies.  One  of  them 
pertains    to    Rochester. 

In  this  strange  lottery  the  simple 
republican  drew  a  ticket  for  Chat- 
ham. To  guards  and  passengers  the 
republican  showed  the  ticket,  ex- 
claiming in  considerable  uneasiness: 
"But  1  don't  want  to  go  to  Chatham. 
I  want  to  go  to  Rochester."  One  and 
all  smiled  wearily,  and  from  one  and 
all  came  the  same  reassuring  reply: 
"Oh,  that's  all  right."  Possibly  It  was, 
but  the  republican  never  felt  sure  of  it 
until  Trabbs  boy  came  in;  Trabb's  boy, 
temporarily  in  penitential  mood  and 
cairying  a  suit  of  unpressed  clothes 
across  his  arm  as  badge  of  his  ap- 
prenticeship to  Trabb.  Trabb's  boy 
also  said  tlie  ticket  was  all  right,  but 
he  added: 

"I'm  going  to  Rochester.  I  work  for 
a  tailor  in  High  street.  You  can  go 
along    witli    me    if    you    like." 

So  together  the  republican  and 
Trabb's  boy  passed  through  the  station 
into  tlie  sleepy  old  town  known  to  the 
boy,  the  geographies  and  guide  books 
as  Rochester,  to  ancient  histories  as 
Hrofesieastre,  to  trainmen  as  Raw-aw- 
r-r-r-r,  but  to  the  simple  republican 
as  Cloisterham,  Mudfog  and  Our  Town; 
a  city  of  dear,  dead  people  fashioned 
by  a  dear,  dead  hand.  Yet  not  dead. 
Trabb's  boy  alone  refuted  that  and 
supplied  a  moral  support  to  the  simple 
republican  when  tiie  only  apostate  en- 
countered in  Rochester  superciliously 
derided  the  republican's  attempt  to  lo- 
cate  a   Dickens'    landmark 

"Why  make  all  that  fuss  about  it?" 
said  the  apostate.  "Those  people  never 
really    existed,    you    know." 

"Never  existed''"  the  republican  ex- 
claimed, then  added  in  good  American 
slang:  "Don't  you  believe  it:  They 
are  just  as  real  as  you  and  me." 

All  the  more  real  they  seemed  owing 
to  the  republican's  inestimable  privi- 
lege of  lodging  in  the  house  formerly 
occupied  by  those  immortal  men,  Mr. 
Sapsea  and  Mr.  Pumbleschook.  Tlie  dis- 
covery of  that  house  laid  the  repub- 
lican under  anotlier  obligation  to 
Trabb's  boy. 

'If  you  was  a  Yankee  millionaire," 
said  he,  witli  rare  penetration.  "I'd 
take  you  to  the  Bull  hotel,  or  if  you 
WAS  a  man  and  hadn't  a  farden  to 
bless  yourself  with  I'd  take  you  to  the 
Six  Poor  Travelers.  As  it  is,  I  think 
the  Eastgate  House  is  the  place  for 
you.  ' 

The  half  dozen  legitimate  guests  for 
the  night  had  alr<.ad.\  been  selected 
from  the  old  horse-wash  down  by  the 
river.  Formerly  the  recipients  of  that 
famous  charity  api)lied  at  the  Six  Poor 
Travelers'  door  for  a  lodging,  but  to 
prevent  congestion  of  traffic  in  busy 
High  street  a  Travelers'  agent  now 
meets  wayfarers  at  the  ertrance  to  the 
town  and  picks  out  t>ie  six  most  worthy 
applic.'ints.  On  the  night  of  the  repub- 
lican's visit  a  tailor,  a  printer,  a  team- 
ster, a  clerk,  ar\d  two  laborers  had  been 
gathered  in.  all  out  of  work  and  all  on 
the  tramp  through  the  Kentish  country 
picking  up  odd  .lobs  until  the  hop  sea- 
son bega.i.  From  the  moment  of  their 
entrance  those  oddly  assorted  lodgers 
move  beneath  the  omniscent  eye  of 
sevorril  full-length  portraits  of  Kichard 
Watts,   who  founded  the  charitv  as   far 


back  as  1579.  Pursued  by  that  pene- 
trating gaze  they  wash  up,  eat  their 
supper  of  a  pound  of  beef,  a  pound  of 
bread,  and  a  pint  of  coffee  for  each 
man,  finger  the  few  dog-eared  books 
comprising  the  Travelers'  library,  go 
to  bed.  and  depart  in  the  morning  with 
fourpence  instead  of  a  breakfast  to  see 
them   through    another  day. 

"Fine    hotel,''    said   Trabb's   boy,   'but 
charge —  My   eye!" 

Undeterred  by  that  apostrophe  and 
by  .Tingle's  warning  to  Mr.  Winkle 
that  "they  would  charge  you  more  if 
you  dined  at  a  friend's  house  than  they 
would  if  you  dined  in  the  coffee  room," 
the  republican  excused  Trabb's  boy 
from  immediate  attendance  and  passed 
through  the  fine  old  gateway  and 
througli  one  corner  of  the  quaint  hotel 
yard  into  a  side  entrance  to  tlie  coffee 
room.  The  dinner  served  at  the  Bull 
hotel  Is  worth  every  penny  charged  for 
it,  but  the  familiar  phantoms  crowding 
around  the  republican's  table  made 
eating  difficult.  If  the  diner  wished  to 
put  that  immortal  band  out  of  sight 
and  mind  the  hotel  management 
wouldn't  let  him,  for  the  coffee  room, 
the  stairway,  the  ballroom,  the  com- 
mercial room,  the  bedrooms,  the  kitch- 
en are  so  rich  in  relics  of  the  phantom 
host  and  their  creator  that  the  patron 
Is  reminded  constantly  that  Rochester 
and  especially  this  particular  corner  of 
Rochester,  is  the  very  heart  of  Dickens 
land.  The  waiter  who  so  unctuously 
bowed  the  republican  out  made  the 
mistake  of  his  life  in  supposing  that  it 
was  really  he  who  was  saying  ''good 
night."  In  reality  it  was  Mr.  Pickwick 
who  performed  that  office  and  deliv- 
ered the  republican  up  to  Trabb's  boy. 
who.  having  refreshed  himself  at  the 
republican's  expense  at  a  les.s  preten- 
tious establishment,  was  on  hand  with 
a  suggestion  for  another  ghostly  pil- 
grimage. 

"The  cathedral  precincts  are  open," 
said  he.  "Maybe  you'd  like  to  go 
through?" 

"If  it  only  coultJfibe  dline,"  said  the 
republican.     "Whaie's    Durdles?" 

That  was  too  mucli  for  Trabb's  boy. 
Patient  explanation  finally  enlightere'd 
him,  however,  and  secured  an  intro- 
duction ^to  Durdles'  successor.  That 
gentleman  proved   entirely  intractable. 

"Not  for  enough  money  to  pay  my 
passage  to  Ameriky  would  I  do  it," 
said  he.  "Tliere's  enough  people  asks 
me  to  make  a  midnight  journey  over 
the  road  .lohn  Jarsper  traveled  the 
night  he  killed  his  nevy  to  make  me 
as  rich  as  John  Rockyfeller  if  I  dared 
accept  their  offer.s.  But  I  da.sn't.  My 
duty  to  the  cathedral  won't  let  me.  If 
it  was  a  moonlight  night  I  might 
stretch  a  point,  but  not  on  a  night  like 
this." 

"But     this     is     just     the     kind     of     a 
night    to    go,"    the    republican    argued 
"It  was    on  another  stormy   night   that 
Ldwin   Drood    was   killed." 

"Ex— actly."  said  Mr.  Durdles's  suc- 
cessor, "and  that's  just  why  1  won't 
go.  One  murder  is  enough  for  that 
eatliedral  tower  to  stand  up  under  I 
don  t  want  another  one  laid  at  my 
uoor.  Come  around  tomorrow  and  you 
can  go  anywheres  you  like,  but  not 
one    step    do    you    go    tonight." 

Trabb's  boy  took  alarm  at  the  stern 
resolve  in  the  sexton's  voice  and  ig- 
nommiouslv  fled,  but  his  place  was 
taken  by  a  policeman  who  had  ap- 
proached but  a  moment  before  out  of 
Minor  Canon    rov.-. 

Vs  a  salve  to   that  disappointment," 
the    policeman,    "let    me    take    you 
around  and   introduce  you    to  Mr 
I'is,    the   greatest    Dickens 
Rochester.   He  keeps  open 
Dlckensians    and    will    be 
see   you." 

The  way  to  Mr.  Harris' 
Jasper's  gateway  and  up 
past  the  Nuns'  house, 
Twinkleton's  doorplate  'formerly  shone 
and  Rosa  Budd's  pretty  face  peeped 
from  latticed  windows.  Then,  follow- 
ing the  meeting  with  Mr.  Harris  and 
his  charming  wife  and  daughters  and 
three  friends,  came  an  evening  that 
can  never  fade  from  the  republican's 
memory. 

In    succeeding    days    the 


had  ample  opportunity  to  explore  every 
nook  of  Cloisterham,  from  loftiest 
spire  to  nethermost  crypt,  where  th«y 
still  unearth  a  "dead  'un"  occasionally 
from  the  Medway  to  Chatham  Green, 
beneath  whose  guns  David  CopperHeld 
found  shelter  one  night  on  his  flight 
to  Dover;  but  no  subsequent  experi- 
ence can  dim  the  charm  of  that  first 
evening  in  Rochester,  with  Its  final 
personally    conducted   adventure. 

I'rom  the  safety  of  Mr.  Pumble- 
chook's  doorway  the  simple  republican, 
bereft  at  last  of  the  protection  of 
Trabb's  boy,  policeman,  and  genial 
ho«t,  is  lured  by  Hlgli  .street  into  on<^ 
lurther  exploit.  As  on  another  rain- 
swept night  the  light  in  the  rooms 
above  Jasper's  gate  burns  steadily  on. 
l''or  the  republican  its  magnetism  is 
Irresistible.  Step  by  step  It  draws  Into 
th.'  sh.dter  of  the  great  archway.  Th.? 
hour  is  late,  yet  somewhere  a  pian.> 
sounds.  Softer  and  softer  fall  tlie 
notes.  The  .spirit  of  John  Jasper  seems 
abroad  un  th(»  wind.  Can  that  be  Jas- 
per's hand  that  strikes  the  keys?  Th<' 
republican  crouches  against  the  post- 
ern door  and  listens.  Cnexpectedlv  th.- 
door  opens  from  within.  A  man  comes 
out  carrying  a  small  pail,  which  he 
deposits  among  th?  prosaic  asli  cans 
piled  around  that  portal  of  romance. 
Mr.  Tope's  successor,  no  doubt,  yet  the 
sudden  opening  of  that  postern  door 
elicits  a  stifh'd  shriek  from  the  simple 
republican.  The  man  stralglitens  up 
with   a   rheumatic   grunt. 

'Were  you  looking  for  somebody?" 
he  asks.  "Can  I  be  of  any  assistance 
to  you?" 

'■9'''  "o.  thank  you,"  .says  the  re- 
publican foolishly.  'I  was  just  looking 
for  that  last  mark  that  Datchery 
made.

THE    EDUCATED    WOMAN. 

Helen  Keller  In  the  Metropolitan 
Magazine:  I  am  not  disposed  to  praise 
the  educated  woman  as  we  commonlv 
use  the  term.  I  find  her  narrow  and 
lacking  in  vision.  Few  women  whom 
I  meet  take  a  deep  interest  in  the  im- 
portant questions  of  the  day.  They 
are  bored  by  any  problem  not  imme- 
diately related  to  their  desires  and 
ambitionsj.  Their  conversation  is  triv- 
ial and  erratic.  They  do  not  conside- 
a  subject  long  enough  to  find  out  that 
they  know  nothing  about  it. 

How  seldom  does  the  college  girl, 
who  has  tasted  philosophy  and  studied 
history  relate  philosophv  and  the 
chronicles  of  the  past  to "  the  terrific 
processes  of  life  which  are  making 
history  every  day!  Her  reputed  prac- 
tical judgment  and  swift  sympathy 
seem  to  become  inoperative  in  the 
presence  of  any  question  that  reaches 
to  a  wide  horizon.  Her  mind  works 
quickly  so  long  as  It  follows  a  tra- 
ditional groove.  Lift  her  out  of  it  an.l 
she  becomes  inert  and  without  re- 
source. 

Such  a  woman  comes  to  the  gravest 
responsibilities  like  the  foolish  vir- 
gins wlio  hastened  to  the  marriage 
with  no  oil  in  their  lamps.  She  is  not 
prepared  for  the  battle  of  life  Before 
she  knows  It  she  may  be  in  the  mids» 
01  the  fight,  undisciplined  and  disor- 
ganized, struggling  for  all  that  is  pre- 
cious to  her  against  an  enemy  whose 
position  she  has  not  reconnoitered.  She 
sends  her  sons  and  daughters  in  o 
the  streets  of  life  without  the  knowl- 
edge that  protects.  Ignorance  givcs 
her  confidence,  and  shels  fearless  from 
want  of  understanding. 

HORSE*  SENSE. 

The  following  about  horses  is  taken 
from  the  current  issue  of  Farm  anu 
Fireside: 

"Now  this  is  no  argument  that  a 
horse   knows   more   than   a  man,    but— 

"A  farmer  sent  his  hired  man  to  town 
•with  a  load  of  hay.  The  hired  man 
was  provided  with  nose-bags  to 
oals  to  his  team.  One  of  the 
had  straps  so  short  that  when  the 
fastened  them  the  horse's  no.se 
shoved  too  deep  down  into  the 
and  the  horse  (without  check- 
thank  goodness)  deliberately  hooked 
the  end  of  the  wagon-tongue  into  the 
mouth  of  the  bag,  and  tore  the  bag 
loose  from  his  head,  and  ate  the  oat.s 
from    the   ground. 

'The  straps  on  the  second  nose-bag 
were  so  long  that  the  hungry  horse 
could  not  get  at  the  oats  at  all,  so  he 
kept  tossing  his  head,  thus  throwing 
the   oats  into  his   open  mouth. 

"Here  are  two  horses  which  knew 
more    than    their   driver. 

"A  man  was  plowing.  He  had  fast- 
ened the  reins  across  his  shoulders  in 
the  usual  fashion,  leaving  both  hands 
free  to  guide  the  plow.  But  the  reins 
Were  all  skew-gee  on  his  shouMer.s, 
and  kept  pulling  tils  horses  'gee  ' 
whilst  he  yelled  'haw' — and  this  man 
reported  to  tiie  owner  of  the  horses- 

"  'Then  horses  are  dum  fools!' 

"All    right: 

"When  a  collar  hurts,  the  average 
horse  winces  upon  beir^g  asked  to 
throw  his  weight  into  the  collar.  Later 
he  becomes  what  we  foolishly  call 
balky,  perhaps — and  finally  he  fights 
like  an  army  mule  when  some  one 
tries  to  put  a  collar  on  him.  That's 
knowing  something! 

"I  am  personally  acquainted  with  a 
horse  which  simply  hates  a  certain 
blacksmith  who  once  upon  a  time 
nailed  a  bad-fitting  pair  of  shoes  to 
his  feet  and  inflicted  sore  feet 
this    horse    for    all    time    to    come. 

"There  are  men  in  this  world  of  ours 
cruel  enough  to  fasten  a  horse  with  a 
heavy  rope  in  a  stall  and  then  beat  the 
horse  with  a  chain.  But  such  men 
have  "bad  luck.'  for  forever  afterward 
if  the  horse  which  has  received  this 
sort  of  discipline  hears  a  chain  rattle 
he  will  bolt  In  terror,  whether  hitched 
to  a  mowing  machine,  a  carriage  with 
children  in  it  or  a  heavy  wagon  loaded 
with  produce.  This  is  either  horse 
sense  or  horse   revenge."

HELEN  GOULD  LIVES  IN  BUSINESS 

DISTRICT  WHEN  IN  NEW  YORK 


BETTER    THAN    EDITING. 

Lippincott's  Magazine:  While  travel- 
ing through  the  West,  a  man  lost  a 
valuable  dog,  and  immediatelv  pro- 
ceeded to  the  office  of  the  Hustler's 
Review  in  the  town  where  he  was  stop- 
ping. Entering  abruptly,  he  said  to 
the  editor:  "I've  lost  a  dog.  I'd  like 
to   have   you   insert   this  ad    for  me: 

"Seventy-five  dollars  reward  for  the 
return  of  a  French  bulldog  answering 
to  the  name  of  Dar;win.  Last  seen  on 
Turner's  road." 

"We're  just  goin'  to  press,"  said  the 
editor,  "but  well  manage  to  hold  the 
edition    for   your   ad." 

After  returning  to  the  hotel,  the 
owner  of  the  dog  decided  it  might  be 
best  to  add  to  his  advertisement,  "No 
questions  asked."  He  returned  to  the 
office  to  find  the  place  entirely  de- 
serted, save  for  a  red-haired  youtU, 
who  sat  gazing  intently  out  of  the 
window.  "Where  is  .everybody?"  he 
asked. 

"Gone  to  hunt  th'  da%vg."  replied  the 
lad,  without  removing  his  gaze  from 
the  distant  fields.

THE  WORLDS  GREATEST  BANDIT. 
Wide  ■  World  Magazine:  Far  more 
cruel,  cunning,  and  intelligent  than 
Geronimo.  the  one-dreaded  Apache 
chief,  approaching  Attila  in  his  ability 
to  hold  his  men,  and  operating  in  a 
territory  wilder  than  that  ravaged  by 
the  hordes  of  Genghis  Khan,  there 
has  arisen  in  Mexico  within  the  past 
jear  a  man  who  is  probably  the  great- 
est bandit  the  world  has  ever  seen. 
Progressing  day  by  day  from  a  com- 
mon highwayman  and  petty  robber, 
this  outlaw  has  enlarged  the  scope  of 
his  operations  until  he  now  rides  at 
the  head  of  six  thousand  well-armed, 
well-mounted  men.  Beginning  in  the 
narrow  trails  of  the  mountainous, 
sparsely-populated  state  of  Guerrero, 
his  reign  of  terror  has  spread  until 
it  covers  all  Guerrero  and  Morelos  and 
part  of  Puebla — three  states  which,  as 
a  glance  at  the  map  of  Mexico  will 
show  you,  unite  on  a  common  border 
in  the  heart  of  the  mountains  about 
one  hundred  and  fifty  miles  south  of 
Mexico  City,  the  capital  of  the  repub- 
lic. More  than  this,  Emiliano  Zapata — 
for  such  is  this  master-bandit's  name — 
has  raided,  looted,  and  burnt  prosper- 
ou  stowns  within  fifteen  miles  of  the 
palace  of  President  Francisco  I.  Ma- 
<>us  towns  within  fifteen  miles  of  his 
bands  have  even  bought  provisions  in 
the    San    Juan    market,    only   a    mile    or 

the     sami^     palace,     and     have 
unscathed  to  rejoin  their  com- 

the    adjacent    hills.

ALWAYS    ONE    DRY    PLACE. 

Boston  Transcript:  In  a  college 
library  one  day  recently,  a  card  was 
found  attached  to  a  row  of  books  deal- 
ing with  phllo-sophy.  On  the  card 
prankish  student  had  written 
lines: 
"Should    there  be  another  flood, 

For  refuge    hither   fly; 
For    should    the    whole    world    be 
merged. 

These  books  will  still  be  dry."

HUMOR  IN  OLDEN  DAY  JUSTICE. 
Paria  letter  to  the  London  Tele- 
erraph:  The  milkman  who  waters  his 
milk  and  the  grocer  who  adulterates 
his  butter  are  not.  after  all.  the 
products  of  our  modern  civilization. 
These  men.  It  appears,  have  an  an- 
cestry of  a  respectable  anti<4uity.  \STt- 
ness  an  edict  which  an  antiquary  has 
discovered  in  the  archives  of  Puy-de- 
Dome: 

"Whosoever  shall  have  sold  waterefl 
milk,  in  his  mouth  shall  be  set  a  tube, 
and  into  the  said  tube  shall  be  poured 
the  watered  milk  tai  the  doctor  or 
barber  there  present  shall  assert  that 
the  culprit  cannot  swallow  more  with- 
out being  put  in  danger  of  his  days. 
Whosoever  shall  have  sold  butter  con- 
taining turnips,  stones,  or  any  other 
foreign  substance,  shall  be  seized  and 
attached  in  a  very  curious  manner  to 
our  pillory  of  Pontet. 

"Then  the  said  butter  shall  be  placed 
on  his  head  till  the  sun  shall  have 
melted  it  completely,  and  in  the  mean- 
time the  children  and  meaner  folk  of 
the  villages  shall  insult  him  with  such 
outrageous  epithets  as  shall  please 
them — subject  to  the  respect  of  God 
and  ills  majesty.  Whosoever  shall  have 
sold  evil  or  rotten  eggs  shall  be  seized 
by  the  body  and  exposed  in  our  pillory 
of  Ponet.  TI:e  said  eggs  shall  be  given 
to  the  children  of  the  villages,  who 
shall  by  way  of  joyful  diversion,  throw 
them  in  the  face  of  the  culprit,  so 
that  all  may  be  full  of  merriment 
and   laughter." 

.Justice  had  a  humorous  way  with  it 
in   those  good  old  days.

A    PUZZLING!   SITUATION". 

Los  Angeles  Times:  Head  Ciach 
Howe  told  at  the  Yale  training  table  a 
football   story. 

"The  English."  he  began,  "are  crazier 
over  football  than  we  are.  Why.  there 
will  sometimes  be  nearly  100,000  Eng- 
lish at  a  single  football  game. 

'Two  English  women  of  the  lower  class 
were  drinking  *four-ale'  in  a  'pub,'  one 
afternoon. 

"  'What's  the  matter  with  'ee,  Bess?" 
said   the   first  woman. 

"  Ah'm  puzzled.'  said  the  second 
'   What   about.    Bess"' 

"  'Well,    ye    see,    nfj-    Garge's    on    tlr 
football   team,  an'   wiien   the  team   wins 
he   treats   me   to     fried     fish     an'     the 
movie.'*,  but  when  it  loses  he  gies  me  a 
beatin'   up." 

•■  Well,  Bei?s,  I  know  all  about  that. 
But  whafs  puzzlin'  thee?  Tiiat's  what 
I  asked. 

"  Well,  ye  see.  toda.v's  match  ended 
in    a   draw.'  "

voices  for  such  consummate  criminals? 
•'Yet.  in  all  this  long  trial  I  have

were    given     to     Olaf    A.     Tveitmoe     of 
San    Francisco.      Enough    evidence    has 
b*^en   produced   to   show    that   Tveitmoe,

"Coolev  did  not  take  the  stand  be-

union,    made.  '    said    Mr.    Miller.

Leo  M.  Rappaport,  attorney  for  the  In- 
ternational Association  of  Bridge  and 
Structural  Iron  Workers,  of  which  J. 
1.  McNamara  was  secretary,  destroyed 
evidence  on  instructions  from  McNa- 
mara while  the  latter  was  in  jail,  and 
because  Frank  P.  Baker,  prosecuting 
attornev  of  Marion  county,  Ind..  "Joined 
In  the  obstruction  against  the  removal 
of  evidence  to  Capt.  J.  D.  Fredericks, 
district  attorney  of  Los  Angeles 
county." 

••The  Federal  government  was  ap- 
pealed to  and  it  stepped  in  to  procure 
the  letters  and  papers  in  the  Iron 
Workers'  h«»adquarters.  with  the  reve- 
lation that  the  Federal  laws  had  been 
violated."  said  Mr.  Miller.  "Again,  I 
say,  if  I  were  prosecuting  attorney  of 
Ln"s  .\ngeles  county.  I  would  have  this 
man  Rappaport  indicted  as  an  acces- 
sorv   after   the    fact,    for    murder.' 

Referring  to  the  denial  before  the 
jurv  of  a  '  Cleveland  lawyer  that  a 
"reipn  of  terror"  ever  existed  in  Cleve- 
land.   Mr.    Miller    said: 

"It  has  been  shown  that  not  only  was 
there  a  reign  of  terror  in  Cleveland, 
but  that  the  prosecuting  attorney  there 
was  the  same  kind  of  a  spineless  in- 
dividual as  the  prosecutor  of  Marlon 
countv;  that  the  police  courts  failed  to 
do  their  duty,  and  that  a  dive  existed 
under  the  very  eaves  of  the  city   hall."

r.i>.iii  irck.  N.  n.,  Dec.  2.">.  —  (  Special 
to  Th.-  11. -raid.)  —  In  its  first  report  to 
tt.e  si>\ernor  and  legislature  the  Xorth 
l»akota  lax  cumtr.ission  demonstrates 
•>y  a  muss  ui  statistics  tl^at  property 
■  aergregat*"  is  being  assessed  at 
15  to  20  per  cent  of  its  actual 
aad  that  a  great  mass  of  per- 
property  is  escaping  taxation  al- 
o^r.  One  remedy  recommended  is 
adoption  of  tne  classification 
ameii.lment  to  the  Constitution  and  an- 
other IS  the  county  assessor  system. 
They  point  out  that  the  trend  of  the 
age  in  all  the  administrative  depart- 
ments of  government  is  toward  the 
centralization  of  authority  in  the  hands 
of  a  few  officials,  who  can  be  held  di- 
rectly responsible  either  to  the  execu- 
tive ur  to  the  people  themselves,  and 
that  the  multipli<lty  of  officials,  each 
clothed  with  little  authority,  tends  to 
confusion  In  any  atfrainistrattve  under- 
taking,  whether  public  or  private. 

In    all    the    range    of    the    American 
system  of  government  there  is  nothing 
more    ludicrous    than    our    attempts    at 
listing  taxable  property.     In  North  Da- 
kota   this    year     1,445    assessors    were 
elected  and  empowered  to   list  and  ap- 
praise property  In  their  respective  tax- 
ing districts,  placing  over  them  no  cen- 
tral   authority.     This    has      been      the 
mode  of  assessment  since  statehood.   A 
large  number  of  assessors  are  elected. 
Instructed  to  list  and  appraise  the  tax- 
able   property.     No    official       has       the 
power   to  enforce  his  views   upon   thorn 
and    they   go   forth   and   appraise    prop- 
erty   with   as   many   standards   of   ratio 
and  as  many  theories  of  value  as  there 
are    assessors.     This    results    in   an   as- 
sessment that  is  anything  but  uniform 
and    is    a    tax    burden    imjust    and    un- 
equitable.    It    is   the  contention    of    the 
commission    that    unless      property      Is 
listed   at  Its   true    value,    or  a   uniform 
latio  of  its  true  value,  that  it  is  utterly 
impossible   for   any  board  of  review  or 
eiiualization  to  remedy  the  defect. 
A»teandinK    Hatlofi. 
'The    ineffectiveness    of    the    present 
method  of  appraisement."  says   the   re- 
port,   "was    shown    by    replies    received 
to   inquiries   sent   out   shortly   after   the] 
organization    of    tlils    commission.      The 
ratios     of     appraisement     to     the     true] 
value  of  taxable   property  as  shown  by 
the      replies      were      most      astounding, 
ranging    from    nothing    to    75   per    cent. 
One    assessor    In     Williams    county    la- 
bored   under    the    hallucination    that    he 
■was  returning  property  for  taxation  at 
75  per  cent  of  its  true  value.     The  fav- 
orite ratio  was  40  per  cent.     The  range 
■was  as    follows: 

All    domestic    animals,    20, 
40  ami  50  per  cent. 

Household  furniture,  20,  25, 
40.  50  and  60  per  cent. 

Farm    implements.    20,    25, 
40,  50  and  60  per  cent. 

Moneys      and      credits, 
and  40  per  cent.

nothing,      35 
35  and  40  per 


the  responsibility  of  the  assessm-Mit 
of  his  county.  He  should  be  appointed 
hy  the  board  of  county  commissioners 
and  should  be  removable  by  them  or 
the  tax  commission.  He,  together  with 
the  necessary  assistants,  would  make 
the  regular  assessment  of  the  countv. 
the  assistants  would  be  appointed  by 
the  county  assessor  and  conhrmed  bv 
the  county  commissioners  and  to  be 
removed  by  either  the  county  assessor, 
the  board  of  county  commissioners  or 
the  tax  commission.  The  removal  of 
either  tho  county  assessor  or  an  as- 
sistant by  the  board  of  countv  com- 
missioners would  be  reviewable"  by  the 
tax   commission. 

Once  each  year  the  county  asses- 
sors would  assemble  at  Bismarck  and 
in  conference  with  the  state  tax  com- 
mission review  their  work  and  receive 
their  instructions.  This  conference 
might  last  a  number  of  days  and  be 
turned  into  a  training  school.  The  tax 
commission  can  keep  in  close  tjuch 
with  half  a  hundred  assessors,  but 
would  find  it  utterly  impossible  to  do 
so  with  1,500,  over  whom  they  have 
little,   if  any  authority. 

M'OHid  Be  lieMM  EZxprunlTe. 
It  has  been  urged  that  the  county 
assessor  system  would  be  more  ex- 
pensive than  the  township  system.  As 
the  county  assessor  system  has  been 
adopted  by  nearly  one-half  of  the  states 
in  the  Union,  the  commission  investi- 
gated the  cost  in  these  states,  which 
have  recently  changed  from  one  sys- 
tem to  the  other.  Their  conclusion  is 
that  it  is  less  expensive  than  the  town- 
ship system  and  much  more  effective. 
Every  state  having  the  county  assessor 
system  to  which  inquiries  w^ere  ad- 
dressed reported  it  both  economic  and 
effective.  The  general  experience  is 
that  the  amount  of  new  property  found 
and  listed  more  than  pays  for  all  the 
expense   of  assessment. 

The  commission  concludes  its  discus- 
sion on  this  subject:   'This  commission 
is    firmly    of    the    opinion    that    without 
the    county    assessor    Its    work    will    be 
greatly     handicapoed.     To    secure     uni- 
formity  of  appraisement   and   the   list- 
ing of  all   taxable  property   within   the 
state    through    1.500    elective    township 
officers  is  a  physical  impossibility.  The 
very     multiplicity     of     correspondence, 
the    utter    Impracticability    of    conven- 
tions   or    conferences    will    be    admitted 
by    anyone    familiar    with    administra- 
tive    functions.       If     any     considerable 
amount     of     taxable     property     of     the 
state    which    is   now  escaping   taxation 
is    to    be    listed    and    the    appraisement 
of   all    taxable    property    made    to   even 
approximate    uniformity,    the    centrali- 
zation  of  authority  must   be    continued 
downward  to  the  secondary  taxing  dis- 
trict   by    the    adoption    of    the    county 
assessor    system.    That    this    is    true    is 
Indicated    by    an    address    delivered    at 
the     annual     meeting     of     the     Kansas 
county  assessors,  by  S.  T.  Howe,  chair- 
man of  the  tax  commission,  who  called 
attention     to    the    fact     tliat     the    total 
valuation,  under   the   old    township  as- 
sessor system   was  in   1»07  $425,2'5l,2l5: 
that   In    1908.    under  the   first  valuation 
under  the  new  county  assessor  system, 
a    total    of    12,4.^1,560,397    was    reached, 
an  amount  over  5.7  times  the  %-aIuatlon 
of    1907.    In    1909    the    assessment    was 
further       increased       to       $2,511,260,285, 
which  amount  was  more  than  5.9  times 
the    valuation     of    1907.    The    levy    was 
not    relatively   decreased,    owing   to    the' 
fact     of     the     increased     needs     of     the 
various    taxing    districts.    The    rate    in 
1907    was    4.67    per    cent;    in    1908    and 
1909    it    was    1    per    cent.    Tt    is    unde- 
niable  that   the  new  method  of  assess- 
ment   has    brought    about    a    readjust- 
ment of  the   burden   of  taxation  among 
the  taxpayers,'  declared   Hr.  Howe."

"While  there  can  be  no  question  that 
many  of  the  assessors  endeavored  to 
make  a  true  statement  of  the  ratios 
actually  used  by  them  it  is  too  evident 
that  many  of  them  simply  put  down 
grossly  exaggerated  percentages  with 
the  hope  that  in  some  manner  it  might 
help  to  reduce  the  tax  in  their  respec- 
tive assessing  districts." 

"The  wide  divergence  among  differ- 
ent assessors  was  not  the  only  as- 
tounding fact  brought  out  by  these  in- 
uuiries.  Almost  as  great  a  difference 
In  ratios  was  revealed  among  the  dif- 
^  ferent   items   returned   by   the   same  as- 

sessor. For  instance,  one  rural  assf's- 
eor  reported  that  he  appraised  domes- 
tic animals  at  30  per  cent:  household 
furniture  at  10  per  cent;  farm  imple- 
ments at  40  per  cent;  farm  lands  at 
So  per  cent,  and  structures  at  50  per 
cent.  No  two  items  Avere  assessed  at 
the  .same  ratio  to  actual  value.  An- 
other assessor  listed  all  of  his  items 
at  25  per  cent  except  farm  lands,  which 
he  put  at  45  per  cent,  and  structures 
at  3j  per  cent.  Another  says  that  he 
returned  household  furniture  at  one- 
fifth;  moneys  and  credits  and  mer- 
\'  chandise    at    one-fourth;    town    lots    at 

one-third,  and  improvements  at  one- 
tenth  of  their  true  value.  Yt-t  an- 
other put  in  domestic  animals  at  40 
per  cent,  household  furniture  and  farm 
Implements  at  20  per  cent  and  farm 
lands  at  30  per  cent.  We  find  one  say- 
ing tiiat  he  was  instructed  by  the 
',  township    officials    and    the    ex-assessor 

that    flomestir    animals    should     be     as-

ture ,,'    ;m  per  cent,  farm  implements  at

domestic  animals,  farm  implements  and 
structures  at  33    1-3   per  cent   said   that 
It    is    hard    to    give    the    true    value    of 
household    furniture.'    and    put    in    farm 
lands  at    from  two  to  three  dollars  per 
acre.       Another   as.sessor   found    it    nec-

REFUSES  MORE  DATA 
TO  FEDERAL  OFFICERS 

Western     Retail     Lumber 

Manufacturers  Will  Not 

Open  Books. 

Spokane,  Wash.,  Dec.  25. — Taking 
the  stand  that  the  association  already 
had  done  all  that  could  be  expected 
of  it,  A.  L.  Porter,  secretary  of  the 
Western  Retail  Lumber  Manufacturer.s' 
association,  has  refused  to  allow  Wai- 
ter B.  Wooden  and  William  H.  Eng- 
land, special  agents  of  the  bureau  for 
corporations,  to  make  further  exami- 
nation of  the  books  and  records  of  the 
association. 

The  special  agents  have  been  mak- 
ing an  investigation  of  the  lumber  con- 
cerns to  discover  whether  the  Sher- 
man anti-trust  law  was  being  v'o- 
lated.  and  have  completed  an  examiiia- 
tion  here  of  the  books  of  the  Western 
Pine    Manufacturers'    a.^sociation 

Wooden  and  England  wired  to  Luther 
Conant,  .Jr..  commissioner  of  corpora- 
tions at  Washington,  and  Mr.  Conant 
made  an  urg.'nt  re<iuest  of  Mr.  Porter 
by  wire  that  Iie  give  the  agents  a-c^ss 
to  tlie  records  since  September.  1009 
Mr.  Porter  wired  in  reply  that  the  as- 
sociation refused  any  further  examina 
tion  of  its  files  and  records  becausA 
the  department  of  corporations  already 
had  been  furnished  complete  informa- 
tion.

Rush  at  Postoffice  Is 
Far  From  Being 
Over. 

Contrary  to  expectations,  there  was 
no  rush  to  speak  of  at  the  general 
delivery  windows  of  the  postoffice  this 
morning,  and  what  patronage  they  re- 
ceived during  that  time  was  scattering. 
A  few  gathered  when  the  windows 
were  first  opened,  evidently  expecting 
a  rush  and  desiring  to  get  in  line  in 
time,  but  they  were  agreeably  disap- 
pointed. 

The  carriers  are  the  ones  who  are 
liaving  a  hard  time  of  it  today.  They 
started  out  this  morning  on  the  one 
delivery  of  the  day,  and  some  of  them 
who  have  heavy  routes,  it  is  expected 
will  not  see  their  homes  before  night- 
fall. The  interior  of  the  postoffice  to- 
day is  a  veritable  bee-hive  and  every 
available  helper  is  called  into  service 
be-ause  of  the  immen-^e  amount  of 
mail  that  has  arrived.  The  pyramids 
of  Christmas  packages  give  material 
to  be  worked   on   for  several   days  yet. 

McDONALDJO  FIGHT. 

Will    Contest  Young's  Seat    Before 
Next  House  of  Congress. 

Houghton,  Mich..  Dec,  25. — (Special 
to  The  Herald.)  — W.  .T.  Mr-Donald, 
against  whom  the  state  supreme  court 
ruled  in  his  contest  with  Representa- 
tive Young  over  the  Twelfth  congres- 
sional district  seat,  states  that  the 
Progressives  are  ready  to  file  their 
•ontest  with  the  clerk  of  the  house 
of   representatives   at    V.'ashington. 

This  action  will  be  taken  at  once, 
although  the  present  congress  has  no 
authority  to  act.  It  is  desired.  l;ow- 
ever.  to  have  the  case  tried  at  tlie  .spe- 
cial se.s3ion  of  congress  to  be  called  by 
President-elect  Wilson  when  he  enters 
the  White  House,  and  for  this  reason, 
it  is  deemed  advisable  to  have  the  rec- 
ords in  the  hands  of  the  copimlttee  on 
elections  as  soon  as  the  special  session 
is    convened.

church,  which  meets  at  the  Knights  of

END  OF  TRIAL  OF  "BOMB

spoken   in    Accusing 
Union  Officers.

ACCUSES  OFFICIALS 

OF  THE  IRON  WORKERS 


a 


Reign  of  Terror''  Is  De- 
scribed By  Federal 
Attorney. 


Indianapolis.  Intl.,  Dec.  26 — It  was  un- 
derPtood  at  the  ortning  of  the  "dyna- 
mite conspiracy"  trial  today  that  th& 
cases  of  the  forty  union  labor  men  ac- 
cused of  promoting  the  McNamara 
dynamite  plots,  .would  go  to  the  Jury 
late   this  afternocn. 

At  .'ibout  4  oclock  United  State** 
Dlstrit    Attorney   Charles   W.    Millor   Is 

to  end  the  argument  for  the  govern- 
ment. Federal  Judge  Albert  B.  Ander- 
son then  will  di'livcr  his  Instructions 
to  the  JurorH.  With  the  forty  men  ac- 
cused by  the  government  as  havlncc 
had  equally  guilty  knowledge  of  the 
existen<<-  "»  i  ct  jispiracy  to  transport 
dynamii  nltro-glycerln   on   Inter- 

state   p. I       ..^.  r    trains,    Judge    Ander- 
son  has  intimated  he  v.-ill  give  specific 
InsrtructioiKS  a.«  to  certain  defendants. 
"Xot  a  Trial  of  I'aloBN." 

"The  court  will  not  see  puniEhed  any 
man  whom  it  knows  to  be  Innocent," 
said  Judge  Anderson  In  open  court. 
"But  the  *  thers  must  take  the  conse- 
queiKts.  This  Is  not  a  trial  of  labor 
unions,  but  of  labor  union  officials 
accused  of   wrong-doing.' 

Because  of  the  mass  if  evidence  the 
Jury  must  review,  and  the  fact  that  a 
separate  virdict  must  be  nUurned  for 
each  d.itiidant,  it  is  not  believed  re- 
sults will  be  reported  in  less  than 
twenty-four    hours. 

All  the  verdicts  must  be  reported  at 
one    time. 

District    Attorney    Miller    todav    con- 
tinued  to    review   to    the   Jury   ortie    E. 
McMunigals  confession  as  a  lynamitar. 
AcoiMrd    the   Offlolaln^ 

Nearing  the  close  of  his  argument, 
Plstricl  Attorney  Miller  charged  that 
"all  of  the  officials  of  tho  Interna- 
tional Association  of  Bridge  and  J^truc- 
turul  Iron  Workt-rs  on  trial  here, 
kni^iwingiy  entered  Into  this  nefarious 
conspiracy. 

•Attended  by  riots,  assaults  and 
f.  ;;  by  attempts  to  kill,  this  great 
ci>iit«i>  racy  against  employes  who  re- 
fused to  recognize  the  union,  grew 
until  U  reached  the  murder  stage  at 
Los  AngeVs,"  said  the  district  attor- 
ney. 

"At  the  head  of  the  conspiracy  was 
McNamara,  but  behind  him  was  Presi- 
dent Frank  M.  Ryan,  directing  ex- 
plosions from  New  York  and  other 
cities.  On  the  Pacific  co.ist  were  Olaf 
A.  Tveitmce  and  Eugene  A.  Clancy, 
directing  the  wcrk  of  destruction  from 
San  Francisco  and  showing  bv  their 
letters  and  movements  that  thVv  had 
full  knowledge  of  the  Los  Angeles  ex- 
rlosion.  At  Salt  Lake  Cltv  was  J.  E 
Munsey,  alias  Jack  Bright.  At  New 
Orleans  was  Philip  A  Cooley.  damor- 
;i/g  that  the  dynamite  campaign  be 
.  arried  to  Southern  st.ntes,  but  disap- 
pointed because  the  men  he  had  re- 
t,.  -..id  to  do  the  work  got  frightened. 
^>bb.  YounsT  and  Batter. 
At  New  York  was  Frank  C.  Webb, 
who  failed  to  take  the  witness  stand 
here  in  hin  own  behalf,  and  at  Boston 
was  Michael  J.  Young,  a  member  of 
the  unions  executive  board,  wh:^  per- 
sonally printed  out  tho  jobs  to  be 
blown  up  In  New  England.  At  Buffalo 
was  John  T.  Butler,  the  vice  president 
At  Cleveland  were  the  sluggers,  Peter 
.T.  Smith  anl  George  Anderson,  carry- 
ing on  a  reign  of  terror. 

"And  BD,  throughout  the  length  and 
breadth  of  this  land,  there  was  car- 
ried on  between  the  international  of- 
ficials and  local  business  agents  a  con- 
ST-lrary  which  was  a  disgrace  to  or- 
paniz<-d  labor.  It  wae  a  conspiracy  of 
which  Jolin  J.  and  James  B.  McNa- 
mara. Ortit-  E.  McManigal  and  Edward

WANT  TO  VOTE  BY 
MAIL  IN  WISCONSIN 

Election  Law  Amendment 

Will  Come  Before 

Legislature. 

MafHson,  Wis.,  Dec.  26. — An  oppor- 
tunity to  vote  by  mail  is  one  of  the 
unique  amendments  which  it  is  pro- 
posed to  make  to  the  election  laws  at 
this  session  of  the  legislature.  The 
measure  wlU  be  urged  by  the  travel- 
ing men  of  Wisconsin,  many  of  whom 
lose  a  vote  every  year  because  of  their 
absence  from  the  state  on  business  at 
ele'  lion   time.

Closing    Arguments    in    the    Dyna-

ANXIOUS  TO  KEEP 
FAITH  WITH  PEOPLE 

Burnquist  Says  He  Is  Now 

Ready  to  Name  Fair 

Committees. 

St.  Paul,  Minn.,  Dec.  26. —  (Special  to 
The  Herald.) — Lieutenant  Governor  J. 
A.  A.  BurnquTot  Issued  the  following 
statement  this  morning: 

"The  people  of  the  state  elected  me  to 
the  office  of  lieutenant  governor  wiih 
the  understanding  that  I  should  ap- 
point the  committees  of  the  senate. 
Duiing  the  campaign  my  speeches 
were  based  on  that  understanding,  and 
1  am  now  ready  to  do  my  duty  In  that 
respect.  Committees  appointed  by  me 
would  be  in  accordance  with  the  ex- 
pectations of  the  people,  and  1  am 
anxious  to  keep  faith  with  them. 

"The  proposition  of  depriving  the 
presiding  officer  of  the  senate  of  the 
power  of  appointment  is  a  matter  be- 
tween the  senators  and  the  people. 
The  people  have  elected  a  lieutendui 
governor  whose  hands  are  untied,  who 
Is  free  and  independent  of  any  interest 
or  clique  and  who  stands  ready  to  ap- 
point as  fair  and  as  honest  committees 
as  it  is  possible  to  appoint  and  solely 
for  the  purpose  of  securing  the  enact- 
ment of  law  favorable  to  the  people  of 
the  state.  If  the  senators  should  d<-'- 
prlve  him  of  that  powe  the  responsi- 
bility would   be  theirs.' 

Several  Democratic  senators  were 
here  this  morning,  but  they  denied  that 
the  meeting  was  prearranged  or  had 
any  significance.  Senator  ,S.  D.  Works 
of  Mankato,  who  has  been  active 
among  the  Democrats  in  trying  to 
wrest  the  organization  from  the  lieu- 
tenant-governor, declared  that  he  was 
confident  that  the  deal  would  go 
through   as   arranged. 

"No,"  he  said,  "there  are  no  signed' 
pledges:  but  the  senators  who  have 
agreed  to  stand  pat  are  all  men  of 
honor." 

Senator  Harry  Wels  of  Le  Sueur  and 
Senator  Julius  Coller  of  Shakopee,  who 
were  with  Senator  Works,  are  non-com- 
mittal as  to  their  ability  to  put  the  deal 
through.

Explosion     During     Pres- 
ident's Visit  on  Alien  Soil 
Explained. 


Panama,  Dec.  26.— President  Taft 
has  decided  not  to  nominate  the  civil 
governor  of  the  Panama  canal  zone 
or  the  subordinate  officials  until  he 
returns  to  the  United  States.  It  is, 
however,  generally  considered  probable 
that  Col.  G.  W.  Goethals  will  be  ap- 
pointed   civil     governor. 

Today's  program  Included  a  visit 
by  the  president  to  the  Culebra  cut 
on  the  canal,  and  also  an  automobile 
trip  to  the  ruins  of  old  Panama  city, 
which  was  sacked  and  then  razed  in 
1671  by  the  notorious  buccaneer.  Henry 
Morgan,  who  was  made  a  knight  by 
King  Charles  II  on  his  return  to  Eng- 
land. 

The  presidential  party  will  sail  from 
Colon  at  6  o'clock  this  evening  on 
board  the  U.  S.  S.  Arkansas,  and  ex- 
pects to  reach  Key  West  on  Sunday. 
Col.  Goethals  will  return  to  the  United 
States  at  the  same  time  on  board  the 
battleship   Delaware. 

Danced    In    PoreiKn    I^and. 

The  president  of  the  United  States 
spent  part'  of  Christmas  outside  of 
American  territory.  He  attended  the 
ball  given  In  his  honor  by  Gen.  Poras, 
and  this  function  was  held  in  the  Na- 
tional theater  at  Panama.  It  was 
therefore  necessary  for  President  Taft 
to  leave  the  limits  of  the  canal  zone 
in  order  to  fulfill  his  engagement.  The 
streets  of  the  capital  were  crowded 
and  the  buildings  were  gayly  decor- 
ated, with  soldiers  guarding  the  route 
over  which    the  party   passed.

WILSONWlNSSECOND 
ROUND  WITH  THE  GRIP 


President-Elect    Stays    in 

His  Room  But  Is  Much 

Improved. 

Princeton,  N.  J.,  Dec.  26. — More  as  a 
precaution  than  as  a  consequence  of  liis 
slight  illness.  President-elect  Wilson 
decided  to  stay  in  his  room  today.  He 
has  his  appointments  transferred  from 
the  state   house   to   his   home. 

The  governor  had  been  fighting  what 
he  tliought  was  a  mere  cold  since  Mon- 
day, but  he  learned  today  from  his 
physician.  Dr.  James  Carnochan,  that 
he  had  met  and  conquered  a  second  at- 
tack of  grip.  The  governor  spent  a 
restful  night  and  said  he  felt  mucn 
better  today;  nevertheless,  he  took  his 
physician's  advice  about  staying  in- 
doors. The  doctor  pronounced  Mr. 
Wilson  well  enough,  however,  to  make 
the  trip  tomorrow   to  Staunton,  Va. 

The  governor  had  an  appointment 
this  afternoon  to  receive  Representa- 
tive Carter  Glass  of  Virginia,  chairman 
of  the  house  sub-committee  on  banking 
and  currency,  and  other  members  of 
the  house  who  were  to  talk  with  him 
about  currency  reform.  They  were 
advised  to  come  to  Princeton  instead  of 
Trenton. 

Dr.  Carnochan,  shortly  before  noon, 
pronounced  the  governor's  condition 
"very  much  improved.  '  However,  he 
prescribed  as  a  diet  today  only  broth 
and  eggs,  and  suggested  that  the  gov- 
ernor rest  as  much  as  possible.  All 
engagements,  therefore,  except  the  one 
with  Representative  Glass,  were  set  for 
a  day  next  week  and  the  governor  sat 
up  In  bed  reading  letters  and  newspa- 
pers. 


Poughkeepsie,  N.  Y.,  Dec.  26. — A  ro- 
mance has  resulted  from  the  suf- 
fragists' bike  to  Albr.ny.  Last  night 
the  engagement  was  announced  of 
Miss  Gladys  Coursen,  one  of  "Gen." 
Jones'  army,  to  Griffith  Bonner,  a 
Poughkeepsie  newspaper  man  and  a 
grandson  of  the  late  Robert  Bonner. 
The  young  people  first  met  when  the 
suffragists  left  Poughkeepsie,  and  the 
announcement  of  their  engagement  was 
rrade  in  Hudson  last  night.  Miss 
Coursen  is  the  daughter  of  Alfred 
Coursen,  president  of  the  American 
Mineral    Wool  company.

Hudson.  N.  Y.,  Dec.  26. — Ankle  deep 
in  slushy  snow,  the  suffragists'  "army  ' 
of  six  pressed  onward  today  with  but 
thirty-two  miles  remaining  of  their 
journey  from  New  York  to  Albany, 
where,  on  Jan.  1,  they  will  deliver  a 
message  to  Governor  Sulzer.  The 
niarchers  decided  to  walk  but  five 
miles  today,  to  Stackport.  The  rest 
of  the  journey  will  be  divided  into 
equally  short  marches.  All  reported 
themselves  refreshed  by  the  Christmas 
day  rest  and  expressed  regret  that 
the  day's  march  could  not  be  longer. 
Plan  March  on  >\  anklnirton. 

The  suffragettes  now  marching  from 
New  York  to  Albany  will  march  from 
New  York  to  Washington  next.  The

the  band  of  suffragettes  here,  so  an- 
nounced today. 

The  start  will  be  made  from  the  I  at- 
tery  and  the  marchers  will  carry  a 
message  from  the  Natlona}  Association 
of  Suffragettes  to  President  Wilson, 
urging  him  to  enroll  in  the  cause  and 
to  support  it  in  his  message  to  con- 
gress.

PIPE  ARTIST  KILLS 
FOURTEEN  LIVE  MEN 

A  Brainerd    Press    Corre- 
spondent Tells  of 
"Massacfo." 

It  takes  a  good  lnviki3tlon  to  kill 
fourteen  men  at  one  clartter  and  do  It 
in  such  a  way  that  the  yarn  seems 
plausible,  and  yet  that  is  what  some- 
body did  this  morning.  The  story  was 
put  on  the  wires  at  Brainerd.  Minn 
and  went  all  over  the  United  Staten.  It 
told  of  how  a  lot  of  lumberjacks  in  a 
camp  near  Bemidjl,  Minn.,  had  got  llold 
of  some  wood  alcohol  and  had  Indulged 
in  it  for  their  Christmas  celebration; 
how  they  had  been  "driven  stark  iriad'' 
by  their  "potations  '  of  the  poison,  anfl 
had  wound  up  the  spree  by  attacking 
each  other  with  axeg,  with  the  result 
that  "the  camp  had  been  transfortned 
Into  a  shambles"  and  "fourteen  men  lay 
dead  from  alcohol  and  wounds." 

It  was  quite  a  thrilling  Story,  all  told 
In  a  few  but  lurid  words.  But  when 
communication  was  established  with 
Bemidjl,  the  point  nearest  the  scene 
of  the  '"massacre,"  there  came  a  series 
of  flat  denials  of  the  Brainerd  story. 
Still  later,  denials  of  it  were  received 
from  Brainerd,  the  origin  of  the  "pipe" 
and  the  whole  fourteen  men  had  to  be 
revived. 


London,  Dec.  26. — The  possessici  tl 
the  Turkish  fortress  at  Adrian  ^ 
which  has  been  the  principal  bor 
contention  since  the  beginning  ol 
war  between  Turkey  and  the  Ba 
allies,  still  remains  the  real  BtumU«.e, 
block  in  the  way  of  peace.  Compensa- 
tion for  Bulgaria  in  some  other  part 
of  European  Turkey  probably  will  in 
the  end  remove  this  difficulty  and  en- 
able her  to  consent  to  the  retention 
by  Turkey  of  the  great  fortress  which 
the  allied  troops  have  been  unable  to 
subdue. 

Saloniki  has  been  suggested  as  a 
possible  bait  to  induce  the  Bulgarians 
to  abandon  their  claims  to  the  north- 
ern city  which  the  Turks  refuse  to 
yield. 

Counter-ProposalH    Drawn. 

Perhaps  with  some  such  idea  in  their 
minds,  the  Turkish  delegates  have,  it 
is  reported,  included  in  the  counter- 
proposals they  have  offered  to  the 
peace  conference  the  stipulation  that 
Saloniki  shall  remain  in  their  hands, 
a  line  being  drawn  from  that  south- 
ern port  through  Serres  and  Adrla- 
nople    to   Midia. 

The  maximum  demands  of  the  Bal- 
kan allies  and  the  minimum  offer  of 
the  Turks  will  thus  be  before  the  peace 
delegates  when  they  assemble  agaiil 
in  St.  James  palace  on  Saturdav,  and 
a  definite  basis  for  bargaining  will 
have    been    formulated.  ^ 

If  the  Turks  are  successful  in  retaln- 
irg  Adrianople  they  will  doubtless 
consent  to  limit  their  demands  to  a 
western  boundary  running  from 
Adrianople  southward  along  the  rall- 
road   to  Enos  on   the  Aegean   sea,    thus

In  a  petition  in  equity  filed  in  tho 
United  States  district  court  here  to- 
day by  order  of  Attorney  General 
Wickersham.  to  settle  for  all  time  the 
extent  to  which  a  manufacturer  may 
control   retail  prices. 

The  company  and  Its  officers,  en- 
gaged in  the  manufacture  of  Kellogg's 
Toasted  Corn  l-lakes,  are  charged  with 
fixing  prices  at  which  the  fiakc-s  are 
sold  to  retailer  and  consumer,  prevent- 
:ng  competition  which  would  reduce  the 
price  to  the  public,  and  creating  a 
monopoly  by  concentrating  tlie  entire

have  Invoked  the  patent  laws  through

terfuge and  device"  to  escape  the  pro- 
visions of  the  Sherman  law.  The  gov-

vent the  company,  its  officers  and

resolution  will  be  drawn  tip  request- 
ing the  Soo  road  to  run  a  track  Lnto 
West  Duluth  and  build  a  freight  sta.- 
tion   in  this   end  of  the  city. 

A  final  request  of  the  Northern  Pa- 
cific will  also  be  made  tomorrow  eve- 
ning and  forwarded  to  President  How- 
ard Elliott  and  the  directors  of  the 
railroad  at  St.  Paul.  The  business  m^n 
of  West  Duluth  claim  tliey  give  enough 
business  to  the  road  to  warrant  the 
construction  of  a  brick  passenger  and 
freight  station.  They  claim  further 
that  thty  have  bten  dlBcrimlnatod 
against,  in  comparison  with  other 
cities    on    the    11b«>. 

"It  is  a  "uIsg-riEicc,"  said  Mr.  Fiey 
this  morningf,  the  way  the  road  has 
treated  us  the  past  ten  years  and  w« 
refuse  to  ablfle  by  such  conditions  any 
more.  West  X)uluth,  for  its  size,  gives 
more  business  to  the  road  than  any 
other  city  ou  the  line.  The  business 
men  here  haV.e  •<>  grievances  against 
Supt.  A.  V.  Brown  and  General  Agent 
John  I.  Thomas,  both  of  whom  have 
worked  contlnuaily  for  our  Interest, 
tut  It  Is  tl^  c'lhtlnual  stand  of  the 
officials  at  %t  iPaul  to  discriminate 
against  us,  V«'gardles»  of  our  wishes. 
The  local  offipiaJA  have  done  all  th^y 
could,  but  ti^-  art  practically  helpless 
in  this  matter.  It  is  for  this  reason 
that  we  havpj  cafted  the  special  nu-jt- 
ing  tomorrow  evening,  at  which  every 
business  man  in  West  Duluth  will  ho 
present,  to  issue  our  final  demand  to 
the  railri)fid."

repainted  and  arranged  for  freight

CUPPWANmATA 
ON  1912  CAMPAIGN 


Will  Try  to  Have  Scope  of 

His  Investigations 

Extended. 

Washington.  Dec.  26. — An  effort  to 
extend  the  senate  campaigm  fund  in- 
vestigation campaign  to  cover  the  fight 


of  1!>12  win  be  made  by  Senator  Clapp. 
chairman  of  the  investigation  commit- 
tee, soon  after  congress  reconvenes. 
The  Investigation  has  been  limited  by 
the  senate  resolution  to  the  1904  and 
1908  presidential  campaigns  and  the 
1912  fight  prior  to  the  nominating  con- 
ventions. 

All  of  the  national  campaign  com- 
mittees filed  expense  statenient.s  this 
year,  but  an  investigation  of  the  recent 
campaign  would  bring  out  many  new- 
features,    it    is    believed.

of  the  Duluth  corps  worked  indus- 
triously collecting  material  for  Christ- 
mas dinners  and  soliciting  funds  on 
the  street  corners  and  elsewhere.  They 
were  busy  Tuesday  afternoon  and  yes- 
terday morning  distributing  the  bas- 
kets, and  every  family  on  the  army  list 
was  cared  for. 

The  Salvation  Armv  observance  of 
Christmas  will  be  brought  to  a  close

/^^y^/ 


Better  dressed  than  the  average,  with 
P«>tty  picture  hats,  stylish,  comfort- 
atle  coats,  elaborate  suits  and  expen- 
sive furs,  three  attractive  young  wom- 

tn  were  brought  into  police  headquar- 
ters last   night. 

They  were  the  most  striking 
ffcrninine  trio  who  have  found  their 
unwilling  way  into  the  precincts  of 
headquarters  for  many  a  moon.  The 
charge  against  them  was  disorderly 
conduct  but  it  appeared  of  such  a 
trivial  nature  that  two  of  them  were 
Kiv-n  .•suspended  seiitences  after  tliey 
i.aJ  pleaded  guilty  this  morning  and 
the  case  against  the  third  was  dis- 
mtt^sed  when  she  entered  -a  plea  of  not 
guilty. 

As  presented  to  Judge  Cutting,  the 
three  were  walking  along  Superior 
street  when  one  of  them  dropped  her 
muff.  A  pas."=erby  stopped  to  pick  it 
up    at    the    same    instant    she    reached 

for  It   herself.     Oh.   d n   that   muff," 

she  said.  It  was  not  the  exclamation 
of  a  "perfect  lady'  and  Patrolman  Xels 
Perry,  who  wa.s  nearby,  heard  it.  He 
told  her  that  .«he  should  not  use  such 
unbecoming  language  on  the  street  or 
h«^  would  arrest  her  for  disorderlv  con- 
duct. "If  you  arres?t  lier.  vou  can  take 
us  along.  t.oo,'  the  other  "two  told  the 
tluecoat.  ".Ml  right,  come  along,  the 
whole  bunch  of  you,"  advised  the  po- 
liceman. .Vnd  forthwith  he  shooed 
them  into  the  lOop,  lodging  charges  of 
disorderly  conduct  against  all  of  them. 

When    they    were    brought     into    the 
<      ntrnom      the     curiosity     squad     was 
!   >>-nt   ill    full    fi.rce.     Everv   seat   was 
taken  and    the    aisle    was    filled.    The 
appearance    of   the    three    girls    created 
an  axvful   flurry.    It  was  the  signal  for 
a    general    craning   of    necks    and    pop- 
ping    of     eyes.       Heads      twisted     and 
s^quirmed   this   way   and   that,    to   get   a 
better      view.       The      curio.aity      squad  ; 
didnt  want  to  miss  a  step,  a  look  or  a  j 
word.     When    the    girls    walked    out    of 
the  courtroom   after   being  given   their  i 
liberty    by    the    court    the    assortment  j 
of  heads  turned  as   though   on   a   com- 
mon   pivot,    every    glim    focused     upon  \ 
the  three  women.  The  movement    was  i

Hugo  Paljo.  21  years  old,  was  pos- 
sessed of  an  irrepressible  longing  to 
buy  candy  fur  Kthel  Arbour  and  her 
girl  friend  when  he  saw  tliem  walking 
along  iSuperior  street  between  PMtth 
and  Sixth  avenues  west  last  evening. 
He  wanted  to  be  the  "candy  kid,"  but 
the  girls  couldn't  see  it  that  way.  They 
also  repulsed  his  advances  to  act  as 
an  escort  when  tliey  refused  to  let  him 
Mow  himself  for  lemon  sticks  or  gum. 
Patrolman  P.  J.  Dickman  happened 
along  and  overheard  part  of  the  con- 
versation, whereupon  he  jugged  the 
masher  on  a  charge  of  dl.sorderly  con- 
duct. Paijo  pleaded  not  guilty  in  police 
court  this  morning  and  his  hearing 
was  set  for  this  afternoon.

Herbert   Blackwell  was  arrested  last 

night  by  Humane  Officer  Bob  Mc- 
Kcrcher  as  he  was  preparing  to  flee 
the  city  with  his  daughter  after  se- 
curing possession  of  the  child  by  a 
subterfuge. 

Blackwell  is  the  complaining  wit- 
ness in  an  adultery  case  against  his 
wife  and  a  man,  who  have  been  bound 
over  to  await  the  action  of  the  next 
grand  jury.  Under  the  Minnesota  stat- 
utes the  husband  or  wife  of  one  of 
the  accused  is  the  only  person  who 
can  prosecute  such'  an  action.  If  ho 
were  where  he  could  not  be  reached 
the  case  would  have  to  be  dropped. 
Wherefore  he  had  planned  to  go  to 
Winnipeg  on  last  night's  Canadian 
Northern,  taking  the  child  with  him. 
He  said  that  he  wanted  to  gain  pos- 
session of  her  so  that  she  could  not 
be   sent   to   a   state   institution. 

The  child  had  been  placed  with  a 
family  at  Lakeside  pending  the  out- 
come of  the  case  against  her  mother. 
Yesterday  afternoon  a  woman  repre- 
senting herself  as  a  nurse  from  the 
Children's  Home  appeared  and  said  she 
was  going  to  take  the  girl  for  a  walk. 
When  the  family  saw  Blackwell  join 
her  they  became  suspicious  and  no- 
tified the  humane  officer.  He  got  busv 
and  located  them  at  the  countv  JaU 
saying  good-bye   to   Mrs.   Blackwell. 

This  morning  Blackwell  admitted 
that  he  was  drunk  and  got  fifteen  davg 
in  the  county  Jail.  In  the  meantime  he 
will    be    unable    to    disappear.

William  Ekholm  was   overcome  with 

grief  when  he  was  brought  into  police 
court  today  to  answer  to  a  charge  of 
drunkenness.  When  the  judge  began  to 
ask  him  about  his  family  the  tears 
welled  over  the  young  man's  face 
when  he  said  that  his  mother  had  died 
about  two  weeks  ago.  His  voice  was 
husky  and  was  scarcely  audible  as  lu- 
spoke,  hie  head  bowed  on  his  breast. 
He  sobbed  that  he  wanted  to  take  the 
pledge  to  leave  Intoxicants  alone  for 
all  time.  He  was  placed  on  parole  for 
three   months.

Although  70  years  old,  Henry  John-

mas in  convivial  style.  But  he  Imbibed 
so  freely  of  holiday  cheer  that  his  feet 
wanted  to  travel  in  different  directions 
and  he  was  rescued  from  the  stormy 
sea  by  a  policeman.     This  morning  he 

,  admitted  that  he  had  toyed  too  freely 
with  the  flowing  bowl  and  was  allowed

Andrew    Peterson    felt    so    good    over 

getting  a  suspended  sentence  for  a 
Christmas  package  yesterdav  morning 
that  he  could  not  resist  the  acquisi- 
tion of  a  different  kind  of  package. 
He  picked  up  a  bigger  bundle  than  he 
could  handle  unaided,  and  this  morn- 
ing was  sent  over  the  hill  for  five  davs 
to  meditate  upon  the  merits  of  various 
kinds  of  pac^rsiges.  John  Derry,  alias 
Donovan,  felt  the  same  way  about  it,

tell  his  side  of  the  story.  Mitchell

No  Indian  brave  ever  treasured  his 
Unease  more  than  does  Da-wee  or  Da- 
vid W.  La  Framboise,  grand  nephew 
of  John  Otherday,  or  Chief  An-pe-tu- 
tok-chu  of  the  Med-in-han-kaw-an  or 
Big  "Water  tribe  who  showed  heroic 
loyalty  to  the  whites  during  the  fa- 
mous Indian  outbreak  of  the  Sioux  In 
Minnesota  back   in    1S62. 

With  La  Framboise  It  is  not  alto- 
gether a  matter  of  sentiment.  His 
ability  to  establish  his  parentage  will 
decide  his  right  to  a  valuable  40-acre 
tract  of  mineral  land  in  the  Vermilion 
Iron  belt.  Today  in  district  court,  be- 
fore Judge  Dibell,  La  Framboise  is  in 
a  law  suit  to  quiet  title  to  the  land, 
whicli  he  claims  was  sold  away  from 
him  by  a  squaw  who  was  not  his  moth- 
er but  who  claimed  to  be  the  lawful 
wedded  wife  and  sole  heir  of  Alexis  La 
Framboise,  whom  he  says  was  his 
father.  The  defendants  are  R.  Noble 
Day  and  Daniel  Maher. 

The  land  involved  In  the  dispute  is 
described  as  lot  7,  section  6,  61-14,  St. 
Loul.q  county,  and  is  located  about  four 
miles  cast  of  Tower  in  the  mineral 
belt.  The  value  of  the  land  Is  prob- 
lematical, but  owing  to  its  proximity 
to  well  known  iron  properties,  it  Is 
regarded  as  quite  well  worth  fighting 
for.  R.  Noble  Day  purchased  the  prop- 
erty recently  from  an  Indian  squaw, 
who  called  herself  Ellen  Ceklya,  \vho 
claimed  to  be  the  widow  and  sole  heir 
to  Alexis  La  Framboise.  It  is  under- 
stood that  it  was  sold  for  $100.  Day 
resold  a  one-third  interest  to  Daniel 
Maher.  The  land  is  unoccupied. 
The  $»l>iMrtoii  Scrip. 

The  Federal  government  in  1854 
gave  to  certain  half-breed  ban<ig  .of 
Indians,  among  them  the  .^leseton, 
scrip  which  entitled  them  to  locate  on 
and  secure  patents  to  480  acres  of  land 
in  Minnesota.  The  land  could  be  se- 
lected from  any  of  the  ja:overnment 
holdings.  The  grant  was  given  in  ex- 
change for  relinquishments  of  land 
formerly  given  the  Red  Men  near  Lake 
Pepin. 

In  the  division  of  the  spoils  by  the 


Indians  later,  a  scrip  for  forty  acres 
was  allotted  to  Alexis  La  Framboise 
and  his  heirs.  Alexis  La  Fi-ambolae, 
was  of  French  Indian  extraction  and 
during  the  famous  outbreak  was  em- 
ployed as  a  government  scout.  The 
question  involved  In  the  lawsuit  Is 
whether  or  not  Alexis  La  Framboise  la 
the  father  of  David  W.  La  Frambois;e, 
the  plaintiff,  who  is  now  a  resident  of 
Shakopee,  Minn. 

Alexis  La  Frambolse/T  th«  plaintiff 
David  La  Framboise  claims,  and  hl.^ 
mother,  Emma  La  Fi-ainb<Wsc,  were 
married  near  Redwood  Falls,  Minn.,  in 
18.''.9  and  for  a  number  of-  vears  livod 
together  as  man  and  wife.  In  1866  I.,a 
Framboise  left  his  wife  and  familv 
which  then  consisted  of  two  small 
girls  and  went  west  to  the  Dakotas. 
Shortly  after  his  departure,  David  or 
as  he  was  known  among  his  own  peo- 
ple,  -Da-wet"  was  born. 

Testimony  taken  from  old  Indians 
who  were  in  court  today  as  to  the 
'/•ngth  of  time  which  had  elapsed  since 
Alexis  La  PVamboise  had  left  for  the 
West,  differed.  Depositions  of  wit- 
nesses which  were  read  did  not  clear 
up  this  point,  but  Thomas  Simon,  an 
aged  Indian  of  Redwood  Falls,  through 
an  interpreter,  claimed  that  he  was 
present  at  the  wedding  of  Alexis  and 
Emma  La  Framboise  and  remembered 
the  birth  of  David.  He  thought  that 
Alexis  had  been  gone  about  five 
months. 

Alexis  La  Framboise,  the  testimony 
snowed,  never  returned  to  his  family. 
It    is    claimed    that    the    last    that    was 


v^*?  .°I  J\^^  ^y  ^^^  family  was  when 
he  told  his  wife  that  he  was  going  to 
visit  a  sister.  He  was  known  to  have 
gone  to  the  Dakotas,  where  he  took 
up  with  another  woman,  living  with 
her  as  man  and  wife.  This  woman 
was  Ellen  Ceklya,  who  later  claimed 
the  patents  to  the  St.  Louis  county 
land  on  the  grounds  that  she  was  the 
widow  and  sole  heir.  She  Is  the  same 
squaw  who  sold  It  to  R  Noble  Day  for 
$100.  She  lives  at  Veblin.  8.  D..  and 
it  is  understood  will  be  a  witness  later 
for  the  defense  at  the  trial  now  In 
progress. 

Xo    Marriage. 

David  claims  that  the  second  mar- 
riage of  Alexis  La  Framboise  was 
no  marriage  at  all  and  that  his  claims 
precede  those  of  the  second  wife,  who 
sold  her  alleged  rights  In  the  land  to 
the  men  who  are  defending  the  case 
now  bfore  the  court.  He  has  a  num- 
ber of  Indian  witnesses  to  testify  in 
his  behalf  as  to  the  time  of  his  birth 
and  as  to  Its  legitimacy. 

The  witness  Simon,  the  aged  Indian, 
who  was  on  the  stand  this  morning 
had  to  testify  through  an  Interpretor. 
The  years  have  left  its  traces  on  his 
wizened  face  but  they  have  not  bent 
his  form.  He  walks  as  straight  as  an 
arrow  and  his  steps  do  not  falter. 

On  his  cross  examination  he  was 
asked  as  to  his  age.  Simon  wasn't  sure 
whether  he  was  78  or  79.  but  he  knew 
that  he  was  "born  the  year  the  stars 
fell."  It  is  supposed  that  he  referred 
to  the  year  1833,  when  there  was  a 
brilliant  and  spetii£i.cular  meteoric  dis- 
play. It  Is  understood  to  be  an  old 
custom  among  the  Indians  to  measure 
time   from    some   astronomical   event. 

During  the  famous  outbreak  of  1862, 
Simon  was  with  the  whites  and  testi- 
fied that  he  was  also  in  the  employ 
of  the  government  and  worked  under 
Gen.  Sibley  as  a  scout.  It  was  a  proud 
moment  for  him  at  this  time  when  he 
pushed  back  his  coat  and  showed  a 
small  gold  medal,  bearing  the_date  of 
1870,  which  appeared  to  be  6,  token 
of   appreciation    given   by   the   govern- 


ment for  his  services  to  the  whites 
during   the  days  of   the  Indian   war. 

David's  mother  was  Ellen  Otherdav, 
daughter  of  Jacob  Otherdav.  who  was 
a  brother  to  ihe  chief  of  the  frlendlv 
reds  John  Ottierday  or  Chief  An-pe"- 
tu-tok-cha  Is  credited  with  having 
saved  sixty  or  more  missionaries  from 
a  massacre  which  meant  certain  death 
at  Yellow  Medicine  River,  During  the 
entire  period  of  conflict  Chief  Other- 
day  stood  with  loyalty  on  the  side  of 
the  whites.  David's  two  sisters  died  In 
Infancy. 

F.  D.  McMillan  of  Minneapolis  Is  In 
court  fighting  for  the  rights  of  the 
Indian  to  the  land  and  H.  O.  Gearhart 
and  Baldwin  6t  Baldwin  are  represent-

St.  Paul,  Minn.,  Dec.  26. — (Special  to 
The  Herald.) — Mothers'  pensions  will 
not  be  recommended  to  the  legislature 
by  Governor  Eberhart  in  his  message 
at  the  1913  session,  according  to  a 
statement  made  by  him  today.  The 
question  probably  will  be  discussed 
pro  and  con,  briefly,  but  the  governor 
will  not  ask  enactment  of  a  law  pro- 
viding  them   now. 

"I  believe  in  prevention  rather  than 
cure,"  the  governor  said.  "There  are 
many  arguments  to  be  made  against 
the  theory  of  providing  pensions  for 
destitute  mothers,  and  arguments  to 
be  made  In  favor  of  it.  Unquestion- 
ably, pensions  provided  by  the  state 
tend  to  stop  help  from  individuals. 
They  tend  in  some  cases  to  induce  men 
to  desert  their  families,  believing  that 
the  state  will  provide  for  them.  On 
the  other  hand,  they  will  assist  moth- 
ers in  keeping  their  children  at  home, 
and  thus  prevent  them  from  running 
the  streets  and  becoming  criminals.  I 
think  1  will  pay  some  attention  to  the 
plan  in  my  message,  but  I  am  not  yet 
ready  to  recommend  enactment  of  a 
law  providing  for  the  pensions." 
Eleven    Topics    Discusaed. 

Governor  Eberhart  spent  practically 
all  the  afternoon  of  Christmas  day 
dictating  his  message  to  a  stenog- 
rapher. Eleven  topics  are  to  be  dis- 
cussed in  it,  and  reports  from  the  vari- 
ous departments  are  to  be  attached  as 
an  appendix,  but  will  not  be  read.  The 
topics  are  as   follows: 

lleorganization  of  state  departments, 
legislative  and  congressional  reappor- 
tionment, presidential  preference  pri- 
maries, state  public  utilities  commis- 
sion, state  control  of  securities,  labor 
and  capital,  (1)  co-operation;  (2)  work- 
men's compensation;  (3)  regulation  of 
woman  and  child  labor;  rural  better- 
ments, (1»  agricultural  and  industrial 
training;  (2)  social  reforms  of  judicial 
procedure:  prevention  of  crime,  public 
health,  state  publicity  and  develop- 
ment.

Pets. 

Harper's  Young  People:  Scott  was 
very  fond  of  animals.  He  kept  about 
him  a  number  of  pets  which  he  treated 
with  as  much  kindness  as  if  they  were 
the  members  of  his  own  family. 
Among  his  animal  friends  was  a  large 
bull  terrier  which  he  called  Camp. 
This   dog   was   his   companion   for,  sev-

for  tus  intelligence  and  his  -fidelity  to 
Ills  niastfr.  • '  * 

But  the  noblest  dog' iever  owned  by 
Sir  Walter  Scott  was  the  famous  stag- 
hound  Maida.  He  was  a  cross  between 
the  wolf  and  the  deer  hound.  He 
measur«d-«bout  six  JLeet  from  the  end 
of  his  nose  to  his  tail.  He  was  tall  and 
powerful,    but   very    gentle    and   kind. 

Washington  Irving  visited  Scott  at 
Abbotsford,  ajid  gives  an  amusing  de- 
scription of  a.  journey  with  him  and 
his   dogs. 

"As  we  sallied  forth,"  he  says,  "every 
flog  in  the  establishment  turned  out  to 
meet  us.  There  was  the  old  staghound 
Maida,  a  noble  anims/l;  and  Hamlet,  the 
black  greyhound,  a  wild  and  thought- 
less  youngster,  not  yet  arrived  at   the 


years  of  discretion;  and  Flnette,  a 
beautiful  setter  with  soft  silken  hair, 
the    parlor    favorite." 

Irving  speaks  more  particularly  of 
Malda's  actions  on  this  occasion:  "He 
deported  himself  with  a  gravity  which 
became  his  age  and  size,  and  seemed 
called  upon  to  preserve  a  great  dtgree 
of  decorum  In  our  society.  As  he 
jcgged  along  a  little  ahead  of  us,  the 
voung  dogs  would  gambol  about  him, 
leap  on  his  neck,  worry  at  his  ears, 
and  endeavor  to  tease  him  into  a  gam- 
bol. The  old  dog  would  keep  on  a 
long  time  with  Imperturbable  solem- 
nity, now  and  then  seeming  to  rebuke 
the  wantonness  of  his  young  compan- 
Icns.  At  length  he  would  make  a 
sudden  turn,  seize  one  of  them  and 
tumble  him  Into  the  dust,   then  giving

"You  see,  gentlemen,  I  can't  help  giv- 
ing away  to  ths  foolishness,'  ■would 
resume  his  gravity  and  jog  on  as  be- 
fore." 

Maida  In  the  study  usually  lay  at 
Scott's  feet,  as  represented  in  the  cele- 
brated sculpture  by  Steel;  but  now  and 
then  he  would  Liy  his  head  upon  his 
master's  lap  to  b'i  petted  as  if  he  were

AN  ACT  NOT  ON  THE  BILL. 
Mark  Sheridan  in  the'  Strand  Maga- 
zine: One  often  has  amusing  experi- 
ences, the  humor  of  which  only  strikes 
one  afterward.  Such  a  one  occurred 
to  me  a  nuinbei-  of  years  ago,  at  a 
very  small  hall  in  the  provinces,  where 
the  stage  accom-nodatlon  was  so  lim- 
ited and  of  such  a  primitive  kind  that 
some  of  us  had  to  use  the  back  of  the 
stage  as  a  dressing  room,  our  ablu- 
tions after  the  show  being  sometimes 
performed  in  a  common  or  garden 
bucket  placed  on  a  chair.  One  night — 
It  was  winter,  e.nd  the  audience  was 
almost  as  chilly  as  the  weather  —  I 
had  finished  by  turn,  and  stripped  to 
the   waist,   was   "abluting"   violently  in 


the  old  tin  basin,  when  somebody  made 
a  mistake,  and  instead  of  lowering  the 
curtain,  the  back  sheet  was  pulled  up, 
disclosing  me   to   view. 

As  I  had  my  back  in  that  direction  ,1 
did  not  at  first  realize  what  had  hap- 
pened, and  hearing  shrieks  of  laughter, 
I  remarked,  through  the  folds  of  the 
towel  in  which  my  face   was  burled: 

"My  word,  aomehody's  making  a  hit!" 

Getting  no  reply,  1  loked  up,  to  dis- 
cover that  my  erstwhile  companions 
had  vanished,  and  tiiat,  with  dripping 
mane,  I  was  standing  in  full  view  of 
the    audience! 

I  wa^  pressed  very  much,  immediate- 
ly afterwards,  to  enter  for  the  hundred 
yards  in  the  following  yeai-'s  theatrical 
sports,  as  it  was  thought  that  I  might 
establish  a  record: 


TAKING  NO  CHANCES. 

Youth's  Companion:    At    a    domestic 

economy  lesson,  the  Northern  Christian 
Advocate  reports,  little  Emily  was 
asked  to  state  briefly  the  best  way 
to  keep  milk  from  souring. 

Her  answer  ^as  certainly  brief  and 
to  the  point.  It  ran:  "You  should  leave 
It  in  the  cow."

VIOLA  ALLEN, 
In  "The  Daughter  of  Heaven." 

"This  j^SwnHe  more  than  a  stage  costume  to  me,"  said  Viola  Allen  as  she 
stood  before  the  mirror  In  her  dressing  room  and  put  on  that  last  bit  of  Chinese 
complexion  «ee«}e<i  for  her  appearance  in  "The  Daughter  of  Heaven.  She  wa» 
«.'t.^rinH-  the  imperial   robes   of  the  empress  of  of  China.  ^     ,   ,  ^, 

•The  gown  Is  a  duplicate  of  the  one  worn  by  that  wonderful  woman  the 
late  Jowale^ewpress  of  China.  If  you  will  notice  this  head-dress  carefully 
vou  wm  see  that  on  each  side  is  the  imperial  peacock.  The  body  is  outlined 
In  eMd  and  silver  thread,  the  beak  and  eyes  in  precious  stones  and  the  wings 
Lnd  feathers  in  rich  embroideries.  At  the  back  the  two  tails,  meeting,  form  a 
r?est  of  rlll  peacock  plumes.  A  network  and  pendants  of  pearls  complete  the 
scheme  Embroidered  on  the  gown  itself  is  the  imperial  phoenix.  It  is  the 
symbol  of  the  Immortality  of  the  Imperial   family.  , 

"The  lal#  dOTiager  empress  was  a  very  vain  woman,  said  Miss  Allen,  and 
her  vanity  cientered  In  her  hair.  Every  hair  in  her  head  was  numbered  and  the 
man  who  dressed  it  counted  on  at  lea^t  two  beatings  a  week  for  th«  hairs  b« 
brushed  out."

TX'ctlnrsday,     Jan.     S,     wUl     be     f3r     the 
benefit   of   the    orphanage. 

Mr.  OHara  is  the  latest — and  crlt'cs 
say  the  bfst — of  the  Irish  actors  who 
have  comb'ned  vocal  talent  with  dra- 
matic abiluy  for  the  entertainment  of 
American  audiences  with  romantic 
Irish  plays.  He  has  never  visited  I>u- 
luth,  but  Is  well  known  throughout 
the  East,  where  he  draws  great  au- 
diences. 

"The  Rose  of  Kildare"  is  a  romantic 
Irish  play,  with  a  setting  in  the  latter 
part  of  the  eighteenth  century.  It  was 
written  by  Edward  Paulton  and 
Oharles  Rradley,  both  well  known  in 
the  dramatic  world.  Mr.  O'Hara  Is  pre- 
sented by  Augustus  Pitou,  Jr.,  a  wor- 
thy successor  tu  his  father,  whoso  pro- 
ductions  are    known    to  Duluth   iieople. 

Members  of  Duluth  <"ounril,  Knlgtha 
of  Columbus,  of  the  St.  James'  Or- 
phanage guild  and  other  organizations 
will  unite  in  an  effort  to  make  the 
benefit  one  that  will  add  a  larg 
amount  to  the  fund  for  the  mainte- 
nance of  St.  James'  Orphanage.  Th.> 
arrangement  by  which  a  production 
of  such  merit  as  that  of  Mr.  O'Har.; 
is  made  a  benefit  for  the  orphanage 
is  regarded  as  a  singularly  fortunate 
one,  and  the  Duluth  people  Interested 
w'll  make  an  effort  to  make  it  a  very 
successful    one. 

Tickets  are  now  being  disposed  of  by 
members  of  the  Knights  of  Columbus 
and  other  organizations  and  will  bo 
exchanged  for  any  of  the  four  per- 
formances wnen  the  seat  sale  opens 
u^y.t   Thursday.  Jan.   2. 

Mr.  O'Hara  will  give  six  perform- 
ances In  Duluth,  opening  with  a  mat- 
inee Sunday,  Jan.  5.  The  four  per- 
formances beginning  Monday  evening. 
Jan.  6,  will  be  for  the  benefit  of  the 
orphanage  and  the  tickets  now  on  sale 
will  be  exchangeable  only  for  those

to   retailers  at  a  price  fixed  by   the  de- 
fendants. 

The  defendants  are  charged  with 
sttictly  er.forcing  the  sale  form  by 
absolutely  refusing  to  deal  with  any 
Jobber  who  fails  to  maintain  the  speci- 
fied price. 

l'8c  Patented  Carton. 

Bv  the  use  of  a  patented  carton,  the 
defendants  are  alleged  to  control  tlie 
price  at  which  retailers  sell  to  con- 
sumers. It  Is  pointed  out  that  a  notice 
signed  by  the  Kellogg  Corn  Flake 
company' is  printed  on  a  flap  of  the 
carton  in  which  the  flakes  are  packed, 
stating  that  the  package  and  its  con- 
tents are  sold  conditionally,  with  the 
distinct  understanding  that  they  will 
not  be  retailed  at  less  than  10  cents 
per  package.  For  selling  at  less  than 
that  price,  the  vendor  Is  warned  by  the 
notice  that  he  Is  liable  to  prosecution 
as  an  Infringer  of  patent  rights. 

The  government  Insists  that  the 
patented  carton  can  afford  no  protec- 
tion In  attempting  to  fix  resale  prices 
TJ>'  retailers  because,  it  is  alleged: 

The  carton  was  not  in  fact  patent- 
able, as  all  of  its  material  features 
had  long  been  in  use  before  the  patent 
was  issued;  the  value  of  the  carton  Is 
n^ligible,  the  contents  alone  being 
desired  by  the  purchaser;  the  defend- 
ants having  sold  the  cartons  and  con- 
tents to  jobbers,  have  parted  with  all 
title  to  the  commodities  and  have  no 
legal  right  to  fix  prices  at  which  the 
retail  purchaser  from  the  jobber  shall 
be  required  to  sell;  and  lastly,  "Its 
use  is  resorted  to  as  a  mere  subter- 
fuge and  device  to  avoid  the  provisions 
of  the  anti-trust  act  and  the  principles 
of  the  common  law  controlling  such 
contracts."

Diplomatic  circles  here  consider 
there  is  certain  to  be  a  gradual  ap- 
proximation of  the  excessive  terms  put 
forward  by  the  Balkan,  allies  and  the 
Turks,  and  when  that  stage  has  once 
been  reached  third  parties  may  have

Telegraphed  PropoHalR. 

Constantinople,  Dec.  L'fi. — The  porte 
has  telegraphed  to  Reichad  Pasha  at 
London,  counter  proposals  as  decided 
on  by  the  council  of  ministors.  The 
exact  nature  of  the  proposals  has  not 
been  revealed,  but  the  official  view 
of   the    situation    Is   still    hopeful. 

The  Turkish  press  is  unanimous  In 
declaring  that  the  allies'  conditions  are 
not  acceptable  and  that  the  Turkish 
delegates  were  not  sent  to  London  to 
c<  mmit    suicide. 

The  porte  has  repeated  to  the  powers 
the  deniand  made  a  month  ago  for  a 
consular  reply  respecting  the  atroci- 
ties alleged  to  have  been  committed 
by  the  allies  in  the  occupied  territories.

UP  CANAL  TRIP 

(Continued   from   page   1.) 

the  canal  officials,  the  cabinet  minis- 
ters and  officials  of  the  republic  were 
present,  and  united  in  giving  Presi- 
dent Taft  a  hearty  w^elcome.  The  pres- 
ident danced  with  Senora  Poras. 

Christmas  day  was  spent  "by  the 
president  largely  in  inspecting  the  ca- 
nal   works. 


Exploaton    Is   Explained. 

Washington,  Dec.  26. — An  explosion 
In  the  park  opposite  the  Tlvoll  hotel, 
which  occurred  while  President  Taft 
was  attending  a  dance  given  In  his 
honor  at  the  National  theater  at  Pana- 
ma last  night,  is  reported  In  dispatches 
to  the  Panaman  legation  here  today  to 
liave  been  the  outgrowth  of  business 
rivalry  between  two  merchants  in  the 
vicinity. 

The  dispatches  say  that  the  ex- 
plosion occurred  outside  the  district 
traversed  by  President  Taft  which 
was  guarded  by  a  line  of  police  from 
the  station   to  the  National   theater. 

'While  President  Taft  was  at  a 
dance  an  explosion  occurred  at  De 
Lcsseps  plaza,  in  front  of  the  hotel 
Tivoli  and  blew  up  the  news  stand  at 
the  hotel,'"  says  the  dispatch  to  the 
legation.  "The  cause  of  the  explosion 
is  believed  to  have  been  jealousy  and 
revenge  between  two  Spanish  rivals  in 
business." 

Minister  Valdez  gave  out  at  the 
legation  here  today  official  reports 
irom  his  government  .stating  that  the 
minister  of  foreign  affairs  had  re- 
ported the  matter  to  President  Taft 
who  was  convinced  that  the  explosion 
had  been  in  no  way  connected  with  his 
presence  in  the  city. 

It  was  understood  before  President 
Taft  left  Washington  on  his  present 
visit  to  Panama  that  the  only  element 
of  uncertainty  in  the  appointing  of 
Col.  Goethals  to  be  governor  of  the 
canal  zone  was  the  consent  of  that  of- 
ficer himself,  the  .salary  of  the  new 
office  being  J5,000  less  than  tlie  com- 
pensation he  is  now  receiving  as  head 
of  the  canal  commission. 

Goethals  Mould  Finltth  Work. 

So  anxiou.s  has  Col.  Goethals  been, 
however,  to  crown  his  work  of  canal 
construction  with  the  establishment  of 
the  permanent  government  which  is  to 
operate  the  great  waterway  and  look 
after  the  small  armv  of  employes  who 
will  remain  in  the  canal  zone,  that  it

here    that    he 
this  sacrifice. 

President  Taft  had  let  it  be  known 
that  he  regarded  it  as  only  fair  to  his 
successor  in  office,  for  the  retiring  ad- 
ministration to  select  the  new  govern- 
or of  the  zone,  permitting  Col.  Goethals 
and  the  engineer  officers  associated 
with  him  to  employ  the  knowledge 
they  have  acqujred  of  the,  capabilities 
of  the  present  'force  of  can'iT  workers 
to  select- from  among  their  nunrlpfr  the 
o(flcef"s  and  employes  of  the  ne-w^-§o\j-

THEIR  SAD  CHRISTMAS 
FINDS  THEM  IN  NEED. 

Chicago,  Dec.  26. — In  the  gladness  of 
Christmas  time,  Chlcagoans  forgot  the 
family  of  Capt.  Herman  Schuenemann, 
who  with  his  crew  of  twenty  men 
went  to  the  bottom  of  Lake  Michigan 
a  few  weeks  ago,  while  returning  from 
Northern  Michigan  with  a  cargo  of 
trees  for  the  Yuletide. 

After  It  was  established  that  the 
captain  and  his  crew  had  perished,  the 
wife  and  daughters  of  the  master  of 
the  Christmas  ship  attempted  to  fortify 
themselves  against  want  by  bringing 
a  new  cargo  of  trees  to  the  city.  They 
were  set  up  for  sale  down  on  the  river 
bank  and  every  day  the  widow  and 
her  orphans  worked  hard  making 
wreaths  and   arranging   other   stock. 

Many  old  customers  came  and 
bought,  but  not  nearly  all  of  the 
"regulars"  remembered  to  buy.  And 
only  a  few  new  customers  came.  So 
last  night,  when  darkness  fell  and  the 
last  hope  of  another  sale  had  passed, 
the  family  found  Itself  still  in  posses- 
sion of  a  considerable  amount  of  un- 
sold stock.  But  the  widow  was  pluckv. 

"I  don't  want  charity,"  she  said. 
'Til  flght  it  out.  Next  year  well  sell 
trees  again,  and  maybe  business  will 
be  better."

celebrating  Christmas  mass  in  a  local 
Roman  d'athollc  church,  Niedenen 
Marcinkiewlcz,  aged  77,  of  Buffalo, 
was  accidentally  asphyxiated  In  the 
priest's  home.  The  aged  man  came 
to  spend  the  Clirlstmas  holidays.  It 
is  believed  that  when  he  arrived  he

Piirity  in  food,  lower  cost  of  livingf— 
these  are  the  demands  of  the  day. 

Piire  food  is  health,  and  heahh  is  economy 
itself.  We  cannot  have  health  without  health* 
f  ui  food. 

The  most  healthful  foods  are  the  quickly 
raised  flour  foods — hiscuit,  cake,  muffins, 
crusts  and  other  pastry,  when  perfectly  made 
from  wholesome  ingredients. 

Dr.  PRICE*S  haking  powder  makes  these 
foods  in  specially  attractive,  appetizing  and 
wholesome  form,  and  for  both  economic  and 
hygienic  reasons,  such  food  should  be  more 
largely  substituted  for  meat  in  the  daily  diet. 

But  bear  in  mind  that  alum,  or 
unwholesome  baking  powder, 
can  never  make  pure,  whoh'

to  retailers  at  a  price  Fixed  by   tiie  de- 
fen<lants. 

The  defendants  are  c'larged  with 
sl!ictl\-  ei^.fji-cing  the  sale  form  by 
absolutely  refusing  to  deal  with  any 
Jobber  wlio  fails  to  mainluin  the  speci- 
lied  price. 

V'me  Patented  tarton. 

Bv  the  use  oi  a  patented  carton,  the 
defendants  are  alleged  to  control  tlie 
price  at  which  retailers  sell  to  con- 
sumers. It  is  pointed  out  that  a  notice 
signed  by  the  Kellogg  Corn  Flake 
company  is  printed  on  a  flap  of  the 
carton  in  which  the  Hakes  are  packed, 
stating  tliat  the  package  and  its  con- 
tents are  sold  conditionally,  with  the 
distinct  understanding  that  they  will 
not  be  retailed  at  less  than  10  cents 
per  package.  For  selling  at  less  than 
that  price,  the  vendor  is  warned  b.v  the 
notice  that  ho  is  liable  to  prosecution 
as  an  infringer  of  patent  rights. 

The  government  lnsi.-;ts  that  the 
patented  carton  can  afford  no  protec- 
tion in  attempting  to  fix  resale  prices 
fry  retailers  because,  it  is  alleged: 

The  carton  was  not  in  fact  patent- 
able, as  all  of  Us  material  features 
had  long  been  in  use  before  the  patent 
was  Issued:  the  value  of  the  carton  Is 
n^ligible,  the  contents  alone  being 
desired  by  the  purchaser:  the  defend- 
ants having  sold  tlie  cartons  and  con- 
tents to  jobbers,  have  parted  with  all 
title  to  the  commodities  and  have  no 
legal  right  to  fix  prices  at  which  the 
retail  purchaser  fiom  the  .jobber  shall 
he  required  to  sell;  and  lastly,  "Its 
use  is  resorted  to  as  a  mere  subter- 
fuge and  device  to  avoid  the  provisions 
of  the  anti-trust  act  and  the  principles 
of  the  common  law  controlling  such 
contracts."

"Better  late  than  never.''  If  you  have  forgotten  some  one. 
rr  received  a  Christmas  present  from  an  unexpected  source  and 
u'  .I'd  like  to  reciprocate,  you  still  have  time  to  "Make  good.'' 

Wliile  Christmas  stocks  are  practically  depleted,  you  are  sure 
to  find  worth  while  and  valuable  gifts  in'Duluths  leading  stores. 

One  strong  point  in  favor  of  belated  gift  purchasers  is  the  re. 
dueed  prices.  Christmas  novelties  and  all  merchandise,  especiallv 
(.isipmd  for  Christmas  gifts,  must  now  be  closed  out  quickly  or 
.vt'ii  d  away  for  another  season. 

Read  the  after-Christmas  advertisements  in  THE  HERALD 
t'nlglit.  Tliey  will  direct  you  to  the  stores  that  have  Christmas 
i  resents  to  offer  at  a  reduction.  They  will  tell  you  about  the 
mo.si  important  stock  reducing  sales,  the  greatest  opportunities 
of  the  season  to  .>^ave  money.  It  pays  to  read  THE  HERALD'S

TAFT  WINDING 

UP  CANAL  TRIP 

'Continued   from   rage   1.) 


the  canal  officials,  the  cabinet  minis- 
tei's  and  officials  of  the  republic  were 
l)reBent,  and  united  in  giving  Presi- 
dent Taft  a  hearty  welcome.  The  pres- 
ident  danced   with   Senora   Poras. 

Christmas  day  was  spent  by  the 
president  largely  in  inspecting  the  ca- 
nal   works. 


Explosion    Is    Explained. 

AVashington,  Dec.  26. — An  explosion 
in  the  park  opposite  the  Tivoll  iiotel. 
which  occurred  Avhile  President  Taft 
was  attending  a  dance  given  In  his 
honor  at  the  National  theater  at  Pana- 
ma last  night.  Is  reported  In  dispatches 
to  the  Panaman  legation  here  today  to 
have  been  the  outgrowth  of  business 
rivalr.v  between  two  merchants  in  the 
vicinity. 

The  dispatches  say  that  the  ex- 
plosion occuned  outside  the  district 
traversed  by  President  Taft  which 
was  guarded  by  a  line  of  police  from 
the  station   to  the  National   theater. 

"While  President  Taft  was  at  a 
dance  an  explosion  occurred  at  De 
Lesseps  plaza,  in  front  of  the  hotel 
Tivolt  and  blew  up  the  news  stand  at 
the  hotel,"  says  the  dispatch  to  the 
legation.  "The  cause  of  the  explosion 
is  believed  to  have  been  jealousy  and 
revenge  between  two  Spanish  rivals  in 
busine.'iS." 

Minister  Valdez  gave  out  at  the 
legation  here  today  official  reports 
Irom  his  government  stating  that  the 
ininisttr  of  foreign  affairs  had  re- 
ported the  matter  to  President  Taft 
who  was  convinced  that  the  explosion 
had  been  in  no  way  connected  with  his 
presence  in  the  city. 

It  was  understood  before  President 
Tuft  left  Washington  on  liis  present 
visit  to  Panama  that  the  only  element 
of  un<-ertainty  in  the  appointing  of 
Col.  Goethals  to  be  governor  of  the 
canal  zone  was  the  consent  of  that  of- 
ficer himself,  the  salary  of  the  new 
offlce  being  $r),000  less  than  the  com- 
pensation he  is  now  receiving  as  head 
of  the  canal  commission. 

tioethuls  Would  FinlMh  Work. 

So  anxiou.s  has  Col.  Goethals  been, 
however,  to  crown  his  work  of  canal 
construction  with  the  establishment  of 
tlie  permanent  government  whl<  h  is  to 
operate  the  great  waterwav  and  look 
after  the  small  army  of  employes  who 
will  remain  in  the  canal  zone,  that  it 
was  well   understood     by     his     friends-

here  that  he  was  prepared  to  make 
this  sacrifice. 

President  Taft  had  let  it  be  known 
that  he  regarded  it  as  only  fair  to  his 
successor  in  office,  for  the  retiring  ad-

of  the  present  force  of  canal  workers

THEIR  SAD  CHRISTMAS 
FINDS  THEM  IN  NEED. 

Chicago,  Dec.  26. — In  the  gladness  of 
Christmas  time,  Chlcagoans  forgot  the 
family  of  Capt.  Herman  Schuenemann, 
who  with  his  crew  of  twenty  men 
went  to  the  bottom  of  Lake  Michigan 
a  few  weeks  ago,  while  returning  from 
Northern  Michigan  with  a  cargo  of 
trees  for  the  Yuletide. 

After  It  was  established  that  the 
captain  and  his  crew  had  perished,  the 
wife  and  daughters  of  the  master  of 
the  Christmas  ship  attempted  to  fortify 
themselves  against  want  by  bringing 
a  new  cargo  of  trees  to  the  city.  They 
were  set  up  for  sale  down  on  the  river 
bank  and  every  day  the  widow  and 
her  orplians  worked  hard  making 
wreaths   and    arranging    other   stock. 

Many  old  customers  came  and 
bought,  but  not  nearly  all  of  the 
"regulars"  remembered  to  buy.  And 
only  a  few  new  customers  came.  So 
last  night,  when  darkness  fell  and  the 
last  hope  of  another  sale  h.Td  passed, 
the  family  found  itself  still  in  posses- 
sion of  a  considerable  amount  of  un- 
sold stock.  But  the  widow  was  plucky. 

"I  dont  want  charity,"  she  said. 
"I'll  fight  it  out.  Next  year  we'll  sell 
trees  again,  and  maybe  business  will 
be   better."

JAMESTOWN  MAN'S 
DEATH  NATURAL  ONE. 

.Jamestown,  N.  D.,  Dec.  26. —  (Special 
(o  The  Herald.) — Death  from  natural 
causes  was  the  verdict  of  the  coro- 
ner's jury  in  the  case  of  Fred  Wolf, 
found  dead  in  his  home  here.  Not  be- 
ing seen  in  his  usual  haunts,  a  visit 
was  made  to  his  home  and  doors  and 
windows   were   found   barred.      Officials 


Purity  in  food,  lower  cost  of  living— 
these  are  the  demands  of  the  day. 

Pure  food  is  health,  and  heahh  is  economy 
itself..  We  cannot  have  health  without  health- 
f ul  food. 

The  most  healthful  foods  are  the  quickly 
raised  flour  foods  —  biscuit,  cake,  muffins, 
crusts  and  other  pastry,  when  perfectly  made 
from  wholesome  ingredients. 

Dr.  PRICE'S  baking  powder  makes  these 
foods  in  specially  attractive,  appetizing  and 
wholesome  form,  and  for  both  economic  and 
hygienic  reasons,  such  food  should  be  more 
largely  substituted  for  meat  in  the  daily  diet. 

But  bear  in  mind  that  alum,  or 
unwholesome  baking  powder, 
can  never  make  pure,  whole^ 
some  food.

Act  Creating  North  Dakota 

Insurance   Department 

Needs  Changes. 

Milton.  N.  D..  l>ec.  26.  — (Special  to 
The  Herald.) — State  Senator  C.  W. 
riain  of  this  city,  author  of  the  bill 
under  wiilch  the  state  insurance  de- 
partment was  established,  will  offer 
amendments  to  the  measure  at  the 
coming  session  of  the  assembly,  the 
purpose  of  which  will  be  to  remedy 
some  of  the  defects  that  have  come  to 
the  surface  in  the  two  years'  trial  of 
the   new    department. 

Some  definite  provision  for  the  dis- 
tribution of  the  moneys  to  the  policy- 
holders who  sustain  losses  will  be 
worketi  out.  I'nder  the  jiresent  law 
there  has  been  a  general .  misunder- 
standing as  to  the  manner  in  wliich 
warrants  should  be  drawn,  the  state 
treasurer  and  the  county  treasurers, 
all  declare  they  are  withotit  authority 
to  draw  warrants  for  hail  insurance, 
while  the  attorney  general  has  ruled 
that  the  state  auditor  Is  without  pro- 
vince in  the  matter.  This  year  Com- 
missioner Gilbreath,  in  charge  of  the 
ilejiartment.  mailed 
county  ofrtcers  and 
out." 

Another  feature  which  has  not 
worked  out  well  is  in  connection  with 
the  adjusting  of  losses.  The  present 
law  makes  the  adjustment  of  such  hail 
losses  a  part  of  the  duties  of  the 
county  commissioners,  but  the  claim 
is  made  that  in  some  instances  the  al- 
lowance for  a  loss  may  be  made  too 
high,  because  of  the  sympathies  of  the 
commissioners,  as  each  one  covers  his 
own  district,  and  is  generally  acquaint, 
ed  with  the  man  who  has  sustained  the 
loss. 

Commissioner    Gilbreath,     in 
port,    will    point    out    several 
of    the    present    law    tl.at    are 
factory.

CLASS  REUNION. 


To  turn  the  tide  of  persecuted  Rus- 
sian Jewish  emigrants  to  Palestine  and 
to  bring  about  recognition  of  the  Jew 
as  something  more  than  a  peddler 
pawnbroker  or  financier,  are  among 
the  avowed  objects  of  Mme.  Bella 
Pevsner,  who  reached  Duluth  today 
and  who  will  speak  tomorrow  evening 
at  S  o'clock  at  the  Temple  Emanuel, 
East  Seconil  street  and  Seventh  ave- 
nue, under  the  auspices  of  the  order  of 
Bnai  B'rith.  "The  Importance  of  Arts 
and  Crafts  for  the  Jewish  People"  will 
be  her  subject.  Mme.  Pevsner  has  vis- 
ited nearly  every  country  In  the  world 
studying  political,  economic  and  social 
conditions  of  the  Jews  as  the  traveling 
representative  of  the  Sciiool  of  Arts 
and   Crafts   at   Jerusalem. 

"My  aim  is  to  keep  alive  and  weld 
the  spiritual  life  of  my  people  as  a 
race,"  said  Mme.  Pevsner  todav. 
"Maurice  Maeterlinck  is  known  as  "a 
Belgian;  Cesare  Lombroso  and  Gabriel 
d'Annunzio  as  Italians;  Med.  Lieber- 
man  as  a  German  and  so  on,  though 
all  are  Jews.  It  is  to  rectify  this  igno- 
rance of  what  is  best  and  truest  In  the 
Hebrew  nature  that  I  travel.  My  pur- 
pose Is  to  turn  the  tide  of  emlgatlon 
of  persecuted  Jew.s  to  Palestine,  the 
land  of  our  race.  We  do  not  wish  to 
set  up  a  government.  All  we  want  is 
a  place  where  the  Jew  can  practice 
unmolested  those  higher  principles 
which  are  his  birthright.  In  America 
there  is  too  much  rush  in  making 
money  to  give  proper  time  for  the 
nobler   thing.s   of  life." 

Mme.  Pevsner  .said  the  outcome  of 
the  Turko-Balkan  war  would  iiave  no 
effect  on  the  plans  for  making  Jeru- 
salem  the  Mecca  of  persecuted  Jews 

Mme.  Pevsner  has  interesting  views 
on  woman  suffrage. 

"I  do  not  believe  in  the  ballot  for 
woman  in  itself,"  said  she.  -I  think 
that  woman  can  uplift  the  morals  of 
politics  and  attain  equal  justice 
through  the  finer  means  of  home  influ- 


simpliclty  is  always  expensive.  I  mean 
real  b  mp  city.  Many  persons  believe 
that  simplicity  must  mean  poverty  and 
privation  and  scrimpina«in<i  things  like 
that,  but  let  me  tell^ou^it's  a  long 
way  from  those  thlnju.  ,,  To  live  the 
simple  life  Is  an  arfT  Tou  have  to 
educate    yourself   to   It,    and    when    you

ence  over  her  sons  and  husbands. 
However,  I  find  that  in  this  country 
it  is  a  sad  necessity:  that  American 
women  are  forced  to  the  ballot  as  the 
only  means  of  correcting  the  evils  of 
Industrial  life  into  which  they  are  com- 
pelled to  enter."

Gould,  as  hostess  at  a  waffle  luncheon 
at     the     Women's     Exchange     In  New 

York,    appeared    in    the   new  .role   of    a 
cynic. 

"How  many  men,"   said    one    of   her 


rooms  by  Mrs.  H.  F.  Williamson  Mrs. 
J.  B.  Cotton,  Mrs.  Page  Morris,'  Mrs.

George  Stone,  Mrs.  E.  W.  MacPherrin 
and  Mrs.  E.  N.  Best  of  Minneapolis. 

Friends  of  the  girls  who  also  assist- 
ed were  Miss  Martha  McMillan  of  Svra- 
cuse.  N.  Y.,  Miss  Janet  Rane,  Miss 
Bertha  D.  Poole  of  Minneapolis,  Mias

All  of  the  assisting  girls  carried  pink

The  receiving  hours  were  from  4  to  7

of  guests   called. 

The  .Spalding  hotel  this  evening  will 
be  the  scene  of  the  ball  to  which  a 
large  number  of  guests  have  been  in- 
vited and  the  supper  will  be  served  to 
the  guests  in  the  Palm  and  Flemish

guest.s,     "owe     their     success    to    their 
wives." 

"Yes,''  Miss  Gould  retorted,  "and 
how  many  more  owe  their  wives  to 
their  success." 


things  are  afways  beaulifnj;  all  line  art 
is  slnipie.  But  how  you  Jmve  ty  work 
for  it!  Nothing  costs  so  hiuch  as  that 
which  is  simple.  You  Y>ay  in  drops  of 
blood   for   the  eimple   in   art. 

Klesanee  in   !Siiii|>l«  ])res«. 

Everything  simple  has  vast  things 
back  of  it.  You  take'  the  simple  in 
dress.  How  elegant  M  i*?;  how  much 
more  striking  and  effective  than  the 
ornate,  and  yet  consider'  the  thought 
that  is  back  of  such  crVatt^jns  in  dress. 
Only  the  great  couturieres  can  produce 
tile  truly  simple  things,  and  I  always 
wear  such  things.  I  am  the  simplest 
dressed  woman  In  Paris,  and  vet  the 
journals  all    talk  about   my   clothes. 

You  take  a  poor  sliopgirl  and  let  her 
have  a  little  money  to  spend  for  dre.ss 
and  see  how  she  will  revel  in  trim- 
mings and  complicated  styles.  She 
ruslies    to    the    ornate. 

The  greatest  thing  in  the  world  is 
simplicity.  The  greatest  writers  and 
artists  and  actors  and  composers  and 
singers  have  been  those  who,  after 
years  of  training  conquer  simplicity. 
Simple  lAlo  Among  the  Rich. 

The  simple  life  is  not  easy.  It  is  a 
difficult  life  to  live.  The  poor  never 
lead  simple  lives  and  the  rich  find  it 
dilficult  to  learn  the  lesson,  but  it  is 
usually  among  the  rich  that  the  true 
simple  life  is  lived  when  it  is  lived  at 
all.  for  It  is  a  hard  road  one  has  to 
travel  to  learn  how  to  live  the  simple 
life. 

If  you  try  to  lead  the  simple  life 
n:erely  by  going  into  a  quiet  place 
away  from  people  and  the  stir  of  life, 
that  is  only  seeking  the  simple  en- 
vironment; that  isn't  making  one's  self 
simple.  This  is  shirking,  a  pusillan- 
imous running  away  from  the  things 
that  must  be  overcome  to  accomplish 
one's  ambition   to  live   simply. 

Not  that  I  mean  that  only  the  very 
rich  can  accomplish  the  simple  life,  but 
it  is  more  nearly  perfect  when  found 
among  the  rich,  for  the  more  splendor 
and  luxury  you  have  to  combat  the 
more  accomplished  your  simplicity  will 
become. 

With     Soul*    I'pperiuoM*. 

Now  the  Maeterlincks  lead  the  simple 
life.  They  have  wealth  and  rich  sur- 
roundings and  many  servants,  and  yet 
tl  ey  are  the  simplest  people  T  know 
and  the  most  accomplished.  Their  souls 
are  uppermost,  whereas  the  souls  of 
mcEt  people  are  so  iiidden  away  that 
one  can  scarcely  believe  they  possess 
such  a   thing. 

As  the  world  advances  and  civiliza- 
tion grows,  simplicity  ■will  be  better  un- 
derstood and  more  people  will  truly 
live  the  simple  life,  w^ich  after  all  is 
the  perfect  life;  it  la  the  life  that 
gives  the  deepest  satisfaction,  that 
makes  one  happier  than  any  other 
form.

of  the  wonderful  strides  over  other 
countries  we  claim  for  ourselves.  We 
take  pride  In  being  able  to  go  ahiad 
of  all  nations  in  almost  everything 
yet  in  the  simple  matter  of  surlace 
behavior,  that  which  we  are  Judged 
by,  we  are  lacking  to  an  alarming 
extent. 

One  reason,  and  I  believe  the  main 
one,    is    we    live    in    a    whirl    and    feel 


we  haven't  the  time  to  be  as  courteous 
as  our  instincts  and  training  would 
prompt.  As  a  woman  who  tried  to  be 
pohte  until  she  saw  it  was  no  use  said 
to  me  in  one  of  our  railroad  stations: 
People  simply  force  you  to  be  im- 
polite"—"Impolite"  being  another  word 
for  "aggressive,"  in  her  case.  .She  had 
taken  her  turn  In  line  at  the  ticket 
window,  but  had  been  obliged  to  wait 
while  four  or  five  purchased  their 
tickets  out  of  turn. 

Every  one  was  in  a  hurry,  of  course 
--that  is  the  prevailing  temper  of  the 
.American  populace,  and  for  that  r^a- 
.•=on  common  politeness  is  falling  Into 
disuse  and  is  resurrected  onlv  on  spe- 
cial occasion-s — for  one's  friends  or 
superiors,  and  when  one  feels  one's 
self  to  be  on  parade.  "I  hate  to  be 
rude."  said  a  young  lady,  whose  t.'a<'h- 
Ings  had  been  all  they  should  be,  "but 
you  wouldn't  get  anywhere  if  you  stood 
on  politeness.  They  would  trample 
upon  my  body  and  leave  me  gaspino- 
for  breath  by  the  roadside  if  I  didn'l 
throw  politeness  to  the  winds,  under 
such  conditions.  So  here  goes."  she 
resignedly  remarked,  preparing  herself 
for  a  rush  Into  the  home-going  crowds 
at    one    of   the    terminals. 

While  there  are  still  many  people 
willing  to  bp  mannerly  If  given  half 
a  chance,  there  are  many  more  who 
are  dispensing  with  politeness  almost 
altogrether. 


^Mothers'  I^Iagazine:  In  the  growth  of 
the  American  repurbllc  we  have  re- 
garded the  tariff  as  of  serious  impor- 
tance.     We    have      political    questions 

which   seriously   disturb   business   situ- 
ations. 

But — there  Is  nothing  more  impor- 
tant in  this  nation  or  the  life  of  any 
other  nation  than  the  po:lcithooii  of 
tlie  wife.  We  hear  a  great  deal  of  the 
high  cost  of  Uvilng,  and  1  agree  with 
Secretary  of  Agriculture  Wilson  and 
Dr.  Wiley,  the  pure  food  authority 
lately  employed  by  the  government, 
that  some  of  this  Is  due  to  the  fact 
that  our  land  is  not  cultivated  to  its 
utmost  limit.  We  do  not  produce  as 
much  as  we  might,  because  men  and 
women  are  lazy  with  farm  land  and 
do  not  take  the  best  advantage  of  their 
opportunity.  If  they  did  beef  would  be 
cheaper,  flour  much  lower  in  price,  and 
the  green  vegetable  supply  far 
greater  than  at  the  present  time. 

The  original  question  of  social 
economics  which  we  have  to  consider 
at  the  present  time  Is  not  the  tariff  or 
the  finances  of  one  of  the  richest  gov- 
ernments in  the  world,  but  the  pocket- 
book  of  the  wife.  I  erhphatlcally  state 
that  I  do  not  mean  the  pocketbook  of 
the  husband,  the  earning  factor  of  the 
family,  but  the  pocketbook  of  tho  wife 
who  has  the  home  and  the  children 
under  her  control. 

I  will  suppose  she  knows  how  to 
expend  the  money  that  is  placed  in 
her  charge.  She  may  have  earned  it 
through  the  truck  garden  at  the  rear 
of  her. house;  the  husband  may  give  it 
to  her  every  Saturday  night;  the  chil- 
dren may,  through  their  efforts,  bring 
in  part  of  it.  But  the  greatest  question 
is  not  where  that  money  came  from, 
so  long  as  it  was  honestly  received, 
but  does  she  know  what  to  do  with  it? 
How  far  can  she  make  it  go,  not 
merely  in  paying  household  expenses, 
but  in  placing  part  of  it  so  that  it  will 
begin  to  earn  interest*  and  duplicate 
Itself? 

The  tendency  of  the  average  woman 
is  to  buy  anything,  from  potatoes  to 
the  underclothing  of  her  children,  as 
cheaply  a«  possible.  That  is  the  worst 
kind  of  economy.  A  good  buver  really 
reduces  the  high  cost  of  "living  bv 
paying  a  high  price  for  an  article  that 
is  worth  it.  It  is  very  difficult  to  con- 
vince a  housewife  of  this  fact,  but 
when  she  once  realizes  this  she  is  on 
the  true  road   to  making  money. 

Some  years  ago  it  was  necessary  for 
me  to  finance  the  relaying  with  new 
steel  rails  nearly  1,100  miles  of  rail- 
way which  I  represent.  I  went  into  tho 
market  and  found  that  I  could  obtain 
a  certain  rail  at  an  extraordinarily 
low  price.  At  the  Immediate  moment 
it  meant  a  saving  of  over  $3,000,000. 
But  my  chief  engineer  said  to  me  that 
it  was  false  economy  to  take  that 
rail,  and  recommended  another  rail 
much  higher  in  price.  The  immediate 
expenditure  on  the  other  rail  was 
$5,000,000  more  than  I  liad  anticipated 
but  I  heeded  his  advice  and  the  rail 
was  placed. 

What  was  the  result?  A  competing 
railway  with  mo  purchased  the  cheap- 
er rail  and  had  to  relay  it  within  four 
years  at  -a  far  greater  expense  than 
the  original  installation.  The  rails  for 
which  I  paid  the  high  price  are  still 
in  service.  By  paying  the  highest  price 
for  a  good  article  my  chief  engineer 
estimated  later  that  I  saved  the 
stockholders  of  the  company  40  per 
cent   on  the   investment. 

I  am  not  stating  this  fact  In  a  boast- 
ful way,  but  to  show  that  it  is  good 
policy  to  buy  a  fine  grade  article  at 
the  highest  price  rather  than  to  buy  a 
cheap  one  at  a  low  price.  It  maki>s  no 
difference  whether  one  Is  purchasing 
miles  of  steel  rails  or  underclothing 
for  the  children,  or  a  bunch  of  onions- 
buy  the  best,  pay  the  price,  and  keep 
on   working.

bold,  talking  to  a  group  of  reporters 
on  the  Cunard  pier  in  New  York,  said 
ironically   of   a   certain    politician: 

"He  is  noted  for  his  constancy.  His 
constancy,  though,  suggests  the  Chi-

AN  ABORTED  ATTEMPT  TO  DEFEAT 
THE  PEOPLES  WILL. 

That  u.. >  a  very  pretty  plan  which 
some  oi  '  Minnesota  senators  con- 
ceived— i  A'.i'uc  the  senate  in  fav- 
or of  the  election  of  a  committee  on 
committi  ,1  thus  take  away  from 
Lieutenaiu-'-ifv  err.or  LUirnqiust  tho 
icsponsii»n!t>'  "I  appointing  the  sen- 
ale  conu' 

However,  u  is  no  great  misfortune 
that  the  ia-:c  of  publicity  befell  it  un- 
timely, an  i  ir  is  our  guess  that  that 
feame  pul-hi'v  will  be  the  sun  that 
will  melt  a.say  the  snowbank  of  this 
interesting  movement  In  behalf  of 
-The  reepull." 

For  we  are  assured,  by  no  less  an 
authority  t!ian  the  Minneapolis  Trib- 
une, that  this  was  a  "progressive" 
move,  and  for  proof  we  are  directed 
to  the  fact  that  two  years  ago  the 
progressive  members  of  the  house 
talked  son/  <•{  doing  this  ver>'  thing. 

DoubtL-^  the  Tribune's  political 
echo,  the  Duluth  Xews  Tribune,  will 
say  "dittu"  to  this  assertion. 

All  of  wliich  shows  that  there  are 
Bome  -.'.;'  iliings,  occasionally, 
vnder  tlio  c  :>uiprehensive  label  "pro- 
gress!- •  " 

The  i:e.  however,  looks   to   us 

much  like  a  red  hot  poker. 

Senators  s!i.'>uld  be  very  careful 
which  end  oi  it  they  take  hold  of. 

A  very  bad  scorching  would  be  a 
very  easy  thing  to  accumulate  in 
handling  that  red  hot  poker. 

It  is  to  be  hoped  that  the  Demo- 
cratic senators  will  promptly  rebuke 
the  imputation  that  it  is  possible  for 
them  to  he  used  as  catspaws  to  pull 
chestnuts  lut  of  the  fire  for  Ed 
Smith  and  th.e  administration. 

The  Democratic  party  is  a  progres- 
sive party,  it  has  just  elected  a  pro- 
gressive presidei.t,  and  it  should  go 
on  in  the  high  endeavor  to  give  Min- 
nesota a  progressive  administration. 

Its  members  could  do  nothing  more 
certain  to  make  such  an  effort  im- 
I'ossiblc  tlitn  to  let  its  representatives 
in  the  senate  get  in  the  mire  of  such 
au  utterly  Tory  and  reactionary  mesi 
as  this. 

The  pc  )p!e  of  Minnesota  have 
elected  Mr.  Burnquist  lieutenant-gov- 
ernor, ar.l  it  is  obvious  that  they  'lid 
it  because  ho  is  a  progressive  and  he- 
cause  they  wanted  him  to  make  a 
progressive  organization  of  the  sen- 
ate. Anyuody  foolish  enough  to  fly 
in  the  face  or  this  mandate  from  the 
people  deserves  whatever  political 
fate  may  befall  him. 


rates  so  th-*^  it  is  practically  impos- 
sible to  conduct  manufacturing  enter- 
prises in  the  scattoied  small  towns. 

The  great  city  lacks  a  civic  con- 
sciousness, lacks  a  compact  and  ef- 
fective public  spirit;  so  grafting  and 
similar  crimes  are  made  easy. 

Put  on  one  hand  a  city  of  a  million 
people,  and  on  the  other  an  equiva- 
lent population  divided  among  two 
hundred  thriving,  comfortable,  tidy 
communities,  each  of  tive  thousand 
souls.  Compare  the  conditions  of 
these  two  millions.  You  will  find 
vastly  more  poverty  in  the  congested 
million,  much  less  comfort;  you  will 
find  vastli'  more  crime,  and  much 
less  content;  you  will  find  vastly 
more  wealth,  but  a  much  smaller 
INDIVIDUAL  wealth;  you  will  fmd 
vastly  more  misery,  and  much  less 
happiness. 

In  point  of  fact,  considering  aver- 
age wealth,  average  comfort,  average 
happiness  and  contentment,  and  the 
good  of  the  nation  as  a  whole,  there 
is  utterly  no  comparison  between  the 
congested  million  and  the  million 
scattered  among  a  couple  of  hundred 
small  cities  of  about  the  same  com- 
fortable size. 

No  social  institution  is  worth  any- 
thing for  its  own  sake.  Its  test  is 
what  it  does  toward  promoting  the 
well  being  of  humanity.  Apply  that 
test  to  the  social  institution  of  the 
metropolis,  and  then  apply  the  same 
test  to  the  neat  and  happy  small  com- 
munity which  the  metropolis  is 
smothering,  and  there  is  very  little 
question  that  you  will  agree  with  Mr. 
Bryce  that  the  great  city  is  an  evil 
in  itself — an  evil  to  avoid  and  to 
combat.

BRYCE  S  WARNING  AGAINST  BUILDING 
GREAT  CITIES. 

James  i^ryce,  the  British  ambassa- 
dor and  the  author  of  "The  American 
Commonwealth,"  says  that  great 
cities  are  an  evil  in  themselves. 

The  doctrine  is  rather  startling, 
bttt  not  particularly  new.  It  gains 
weight  when  it  comes  from  so  pene- 
trating and  so  shrewd  an  observer  'as 
Mr.  Bryce. 

Some  years  ago,  when  it  was  an- 
nounced that  Chicago's  ''Two  Million 
club"  proposed  to  call  itself  the 
"Three  Million  club"  because  Chi- 
cago had  passed  its  goal  of  two  mil- 
lion inhabitants,  The  Herald  sug- 
gested that  it  might  b-  more  to  the 
point  and  better  for  humanity  if  it 
were  made  a  "One  Million  club,"  and 
if  it  directed  its  efforts  to  putting 
upon  the  land  Chicago's  vast  surplus 
of  miserables  who  are  needy  always 
and  starving  often. 

It  is  hard,  when  one  really  com.es 
to  think  of  it,  to  justify  the  huge 
city.  If  for  no  other  reason  than  the 
fact  that  it  attracts  surplus  labor  so 
that  there  always  arc  idle  hands,  and 
that  this  involves  slum  poverty,  the 
great  city  is  a  menace.  It  draws 
from  the  land  those  who  should  be 
independent  and  comfortable,  and 
makes  many  of  them  poor  and  miser- 
able. It  draws  from  the  producing 
class  to  increase  the  consuming  ch?;s, 
and  already  this  tendency  has  gone 
BO  far  that  the  resulting  condition  is 
menacing.  The  high  cost  of  food  is 
unquestionably  due  in  large  part  to 
the  fact  that  there  are  too  many  peo- 
ple to  eat  it  who  produce  none  of  it. 

As  a  manufacturing  center  the 
large  city  is  a  mistake,  because  the 
cost  of  living  is  higher  than  in  small- 
er   coraiTiunities.      Ye:    railroads    f.x 


And  contrasting  these  days  with 
those  of  early  Feliruary,  It  sort  o' 
seein.s  as  if  this  time  of  the  year 
m!£ht    bo    desiyrnated    as    Bundlernas. 


WHAT  IS  A  MONEY  TRUST? 

Mr,  Morgan  is  quite  certain  that 
there  is  no  money  trust.  He  told  the 
Pujo  committee  so,  and  if  his  state- 
ment carried  conviction  it  is  highly 
important,  because  that  is  precisely 
what  the  Pujo  committee  is  trying  to 
find  out. 

What  is  a  money  trust,  auA'way? 

It  is  claimed  that  no  individual 
constitutes  it,  or  could  constitute  it. 
Probably  that's  true;  and  probably  if 
any  individual  got  such  power  he 
couldn't  keep  it  a  day  longer  than 
the  nation's  discovery  that  he  had  it. 

It  is  claimed  that  no  firm  or  cor- 
poration constitutes  it,  and  that  no 
firm  or  corporation  could.  Probably 
that's  true.  too. 

The  money  trust  is  not  J.  Pier- 
pont  Morgan,  then,  or  T.  P.  Morgan 
&  Co.:  though  they  bear  a  suspicious 
resemblance  to  the  nucleus  of  a 
money  trust.  The  testimony  has 
shown  pretty  conclusively  that  what 
Mr.  Morgan  says  goes.  He  wanted 
a  great  life  insurance  company,  and 
though  Ryan,  who  had  it,  hesitated 
when  asked  to  sell  it  to  Morgan  and 
manifestly  did  not  want  to,  he  did 
sell  it  to  Morgan.  Mr.  Morgan  ad- 
mitted that  he  had  known  cases 
where  financial  operations  that  did 
not  have  his  approval  failed. 

But  if  you  were  going  to  organize 
a  money  trust,  how  would  you  do  it? 
It  would  be  careless  to  put  it  openly 
in  the  grasp  of  one  man.  It  would 
be  as  careless  to  put  it  in  a  firm  or  a 
corporation.  Discovery  would  mean 
the  end  of  your  money  trust. 

Wouldn't  you,  rather,  if  you  were 
planning  a  money  trust — a  master  of 
all  trusts — do  it  on  the  basis  of  a 
mere  friendly  understanding  among 
bu.'iness  associates?  No  individual, 
no  firm,  no  corporation,  no  trust  in 
tangible  and  legal  form — not  even  an 
agreement.  Just  a  friendly  under- 
standing among  business  associates, 
ramifying  bj'  interlocking  directorates 
through  the  business  and  industry  of 
the  nation.  Wouldn't  you  be  more 
likely  to  try  to  work  it  that  way? 
You'd  be  wiser  if  you  did. 

There  is  no  denial,  so  far  as  we 
have  observed,  that  there  is  such  a 
thing  as  that.  There  is  plenty  of 
tangible  evidence,  on  the  other  hand, 
there  IS  such  a  thing. 

It  has  be.;n  shown  that  eighteen 
financial  institutions  in  New  York, 
with  interests  and  directorates  in 
common,  have  a  voice  in  the  man- 
agement of  a  hundred  and  thirty-four 
great  corporations  in  all  lines  of  busi- 
ness, with  a  joint  capital  of  more 
than  twenty-five  billion  dollars.  J.  P. 
Morgan  &  Co.,  the  Guaranty  Trust 
company,  the  Bankers'  Trust  com- 
pany, the  First  National  bank  and  the 
National  City  bank  alone  are  allied 
through  341  interlocking  directors  with 
corporations  having  an  aggregate 
capital  of  $22,245,000,000. 

And  they  are  not  only  allied  with 
this  vast  herd  of  corporations,  the 
very  heart  of  the  nation's  business, 
BUT  WITH  EACH  OTHER. 

And  nobody  will  question  that  the 
dominant  figure  in  them  all  is  John 
Picrpont  Morgan. 

Maybe  there's  no  money  trust. 
There's  no  proof  that  there  i.s.  But 
can  anybody  doubt  that  there  is 
something  just  as  good-— or  just  as 
bad.  depending  on  whether  you  look 
nt  it  from  the  inside  or  the  outside?

ARE  STILL  USING  INDIAN  TRAILS 

To  the   Editor  of  The  Herald: 

The  bad  condition  of  the  sidewalks 
in  some  localities  In  Duluth,  (a  whole 
week  after  a  snowstorm)  prompts  this 
communication   to    the   open    Court. 

It  seems  Duluth  must  have  an  un- 
usual larg:e  percentage  of  people  who 
have  no  desire  to  be  neat  and  clean 
themselves  and  have  no  regard  for 
their  neighbors  or  their  sidcwalk.s  in 
front  of  their  dwellings  would  be  in 
better  condition.  In  some  sections  the 
pedestrians  had  to  make  a  trail  usually 
in  the  middle  of  the  walk,  and  later 
when  the  city  scraper  comes  that  way 
it  brushes  off  the  loose  snow  on  both 
sides,  or  one  spot  on  one  side  and 
another  spot  on  the  other  side,  so  that 
you  must  either  walk  on  either  side  or 
use  the  middle  and  straddle  along  as  if 
on  a  camel's  back. 

It  Is  not  only  the  residence  district, 
but  even  on  our  busy  Michigan  street 
between  First  avenue  west  and  Second 
avenue  east  where  the  passer  by  must 
go  single  file  as  there  is  no  room  for 
two  persons  to  walk  side  by  side.  Tliink 
of  that  for  Michigan  street.  Even  on 
First  street,  on  the  lower  side  between 
Second  avenue  west  and  Third  avenue 
west  it  is  alinoat  necessary  to  walk  out 
In  the  street  to  avoid  the  snow  drift 
which    has    been   there    for   a   week. 

Our  own  St.  Loul.s  county  Is  not  free 
fiom  criticism.  Around  Sixth  avenue 
east  and  Second  street,  (county  jail 
square),  has  always  seemed  to  be  a 
neglected  spot  in  the  winter.  Up  Sixth 
avenue  on  the  east  side  there  Is  noth- 
ing  more    than   an    Indian    trail. 

The  ordinary  tenement  lease  provides 
who  is  to  keep  the  sidewalks  clean  and 
there  should  be  some  department  In  the 
city  who  should  enforce  the  cleaning 
of  the  sidewalks. 

I  hope  this  will  be  the  means  of  stir- 
ring up  somebody  to  see  that  the  side- 
walks are  kept  clean  and  perhaps  the 
next  communication  will  contain  the 
names  of  some  property  owners  whose 
property  Is  being  neglected  to  the  detri- 
ment  of  the    ordinary   citizen.

LARGER  WOLF  BOUNTY. 


To  the   Editor  of  The  Herald: 

As  I  was  reading  The  Herald  of  Dec. 
1&  I  read  a  cigar  and  wolf  story.  Now 
Mr.  Editor,  there  is  no  doubt  there  are 
a  great  many  people  in  this  northern 
part  of  Minnesota  who  are  more  or  less 
bothered  with  wolves,  as  this  man  who 
kept  the  animals  away  with  lighted 
cigars  was.  He  stated  that  a  school 
teacher  had  a  lively  time  with  her  whip 
to  keep  them  away.  Now,  Mr.  Editor, 
why  doesn't  the  state  offer  a  larger 
bounty  for  wolves  and  make  It  an  ob- 
ject for  people  to  go  out  and  hunt  and 
trap  them.  At  present  I  think  the 
bounty  is  $15^  Now,  if  the  bounty  would 
be  $25  or  $30  it  would  be  an  object  for 
people  to  go  out  In  tUe  wooas  and  hunt 
and  trap  them.  When  a  hunter  goes 
to  the  auditor's  office  in  hunting  sea- 
son and  pays  his  dollar  he  has  strict 
orders  to  take  only  one  deer.  But  the 
county  and  state  allow  the  wolves  to 
take  all  they  can  get  and  that  is  more 
than  all  the  hunters  put  together.  Once 
In  a  great  while  we  read  of  someone 
collecting  wolf  bounty  but  that  is  some- 
one that  perhaps  saw  one  crossing  his 
field  and  was  lucky  to  get  him.  I  am 
safe  to  saj-  for  everj'  wolf  bounty  that 
is  collected  there  are  five  deer  killed 
by  the  wolves.  But  let  Mr.  Hunter  go 
out  of  season  and  Mr.  Game  Warden 
will  take  hi.**  knapsack  and  gun  away 
from  him.  If  the  state  wants  to  pro- 
tect the  deer  why  don't  our  represen- 
tatives   provide    a   larger   wolf    bounty? 

Thanking  you  for  your  valuable 
space,  jours,  A  READER.

If  I  Could  ChooMe. 

If  I  could  make  a  choice  of  occupations, 
I  think   I'd  like  to  be  a  poet  wise. 
And   have  a   i)lace   among   the   great   of 

nation.s — 
Ah,  how  I'd  like  to  win  a  Nobel  prize. 

Now  wouldn't  it  be  sweeter  than  pure 

honey 
The  easy  path  to  Fortune  thus  to  tread? 
Or  would  you  designate  it  rather  funny 
To   manufacture    money   out    of  lead? 

I  hope  you  wouldn't  call  It  counterfeit- 
ing 

If  I  should   turn  a  pencil  Into  gold. 

For  I  should  hate  to  find  myself  re- 
treating 

Behind  thQ  bars  where  drinks  are  never 
sold. 

A   poet   is  a  mighty   lasting   fellow — 
Of    course    I    mean    the    i)oet    born    and 

bred — 
For    his    effusions    rich    and    ripe    and 

mellow 
Will  speak  his  name  as  long  as  books 

are   read. 

There's   David,    Homer,    Horace,    Virgil, 

Dante, 
Shakespeare,    Burns      and      Moore    and 

Walter    Scott 
In  such  a  class  I'd  gladly  be  a  "banty"; 
E'en  this  would  mean  I'd  have  to  go  a 

lot. 

There's  Edgar  Poe  and  Longfellow  and 

Whlttler, 
And  others  whom  the  generations  prize, 
Who    sought    to    make    a    pretty    world 

still    prettier 
By     wooing     angel     accents     from     the 

skies. 

I   think   there    is   a  mighty   satisfaction 

In  writing  verse  that  stirs  the  souls  of 
men. 

Or  from  the  heat  of  conflict  gives  dis- 
traction, 

Or  fills  the  wounded  heart  with  hop« 
again. 

There's  one  sad  thing  about  this  ballad 

making 
With  worry,  fear  and  trembling  makes 

me   full; 
I've   got   to   get   up   something  that    Is 

taking. 
It  does  a  man  no  good  to  have  a  pull. 

If   one  could   fill  his  verse   with   germs 

of    laughter. 
Or  even  tap  the  fount  where  tears  are 

stored. 
He    might    be    reaping    crops    of    Fame 

thereafter. 
Besides    annexing      part      of      Plenty's 

hoard. 

Of  course  on  every  hand  you  find  a 
critic. 

But  what  of  that?  Sometimes  they  do 
some  good. 

By  means  of  scanning,  searching  analy- 
tic. 

They   may  assist  us   to  be   understood. 

Now    as    the    little    mice    by    constant 

nibbling. 
Contrive    at    length      to      get    a    whole 

cheese    down. 
So    wo,    some    day,    by   keeping    up    the 

Hcrlbbling 
May  confiscate  a  portion   of  Renown.

Gmmnteed    Uouda. 

St.  Cloud  Journal-Press:  The  propo- 
sition to  hiiT.er*the  state  guarantee 
county,  city  andjvillage  bonds  is  a  good 
one.  it  properljr  safeguarded.  If  the 
legal  steps  of  any  proposed  bond  Issue 
are  first  swbnrttted  to  tho  attorney 
general  and  receive  his  approval,  the 
state  could  without  cost  to  itself  guar- 
antee the  payment  of  the  interest  and 
principal  of  bonds  by  any  county,  city 
or  village  in  Minnesota.  With  the  state's 
guarantee  the  bonds  coum  be  placed 
at  a  lower  rate  of  interest  than  they 
could  without  It.  No  municipality  in 
the  state  need  pay  more  than  4  per 
cent  Interest  on  its  bonded  Indebted- 
ness. There  Is  plenty  of  home  money 
that  would  take  the  bonds  at  this 
rate,  if  they  are  exempt  from  taxa- 
tion. There  Is  uo^need  of  paying  for- 
eign capital  a  bonus  for  municipal 
bonds  and  a  comparatively  high  rate 
of  interest. 


Nothing  the  Matter. 

Hibbing  Mesaba  Ore:  The  only  thing 
that  is  the  matter  with  St.  Louis  coun-

be    better   would   be    to    be   bigger.

the  first  states  to  have  a  progressive

line  with  a  set  of  laws  that  will  make 
tlie  body  famous  for  fifty  years.  The 
progressives  must  and  should  show 
that  they  mean  what  they  preach,  and 
give  the  peopl*  power  to  say  whether 
any  gives  man  siMiU  remain  in  office —

Appleton,  Wis.,  «lty  authorities  are

Good  Presidlne  Officers. 

Waseca  Herajdu  The  1913  session  of 
the  Minnesota  legislature  will  begin  Its 
work  under  most  favorable  auspices. 
The  men  who  -wjSil  preside  over  both 
branches  appear  to  have  won  their 
places  without  the  aid  of  machine  poli- 
ticians or  "Wg  >«.slness."  They  will 
begin  their  wOrk-free  and  untrammeled 
and  are  in  a  position  to  give  the  plain 
people  a  square  deal.  Much  will  be 
expected  from  Rines  and  Burnquist. 
Here's  hoping^  they  fulfill  the  expecta- 
tions. 


Tax   I..aw   Reform. 

Detroit  Record:  The  state  tax  com- 
mission has  made  two  important  rec- 
ommendations that  we  believe  the 
members  of  the  state  legislature  should 
endprse  by  enacting  some  laws  to  cover, 
and  that  Is  the  abolishment^  .«f  the 
township  assessor  and  the  appointment 
of  a  county  assessor,  and  also  the  as- 
sessing of  all  property  at  Its  full  sell- 
ing price.  No  sane  person  will  argue 
long  in  favor  of  our  present  taxation 
laws,  for  tlfey  wreak  more  injustice 
than  any  other  regoilatlon  (legal  or 
moral)  with  which  aiv Intelligent  people

Testing  Days  for  Duluth 

Minneapolis  'Journal:  Duluth  has 
adopted  a  liberal  city  charter,  and  will 
start  in  next  April  on  a  commission 
form  of  government  with  all  the  ardor 
and  enthusiasm  of  a  young  lover  lead- 
ing the  beloved  object  to  the  altar.  The 
Galveston  plan  was  considered  an  im- 
provement on  the  old  system  of  man- 
aging a  city.  The  Des  Moines  plan 
was  considereiJan^advance  on  the  Gal- 
veston method,  btii  here  comes  Duluth 
with  "the  Duluth  %)lan"  which,  so  The 
Herald  says,  "will,"  if  developed  to  the 
full  limit  of  its  possibilities,  be  the  ul- 
timate of  efficient  municipal  govern- 
ment responsive  to  the  will  of  the  peo- 
ple."     Let    us,  -hope    so. 

The  Galveston  plan  did  not  include 
the  initiative,  referendum  and  recall. 
The  Des  Moinas  plan  included  these,  but 
retained  many  of  ^the  old  restrictions 
born  of  other  da]|s.  But  the  Duluth 
plan,  says  Th^  Hei^ld,  "is  the  first  one 
to  throw  off  In  its  entirety  the  old 
system  of  governmcmt  and  to  open  the 
way  for  the  application  to  the  munic- 
ipal corporation  of  the  basic  principles 
of  organization  and  efficiency  that  are 
the  secret  of  the  success  of  large  pri- 
vate corporations.  Yet  in  so  doing, 
Duluth  has  given  to  its  people  complete 
control  over  their  own  government, 
giving  every  man  the  same  position  in 
relation  to  the  municipal  government 
that  the  shareholder  has  in  the  private 
corporation." 

All  this,  as  The  Herald  wisely  points 
out,  is  an  opportunity  rather  than  an 
accomplished  fact.  Here  is  freedom,  so 
it  is  thought:  now  let  us  see  If  the 
people  of  Duluth  are  worthy  of  such 
freedom  and  are  able  to  take  advantage 
of    It. 

As  the  commissioners  to  be  elected 
the  first  of  next  April  will  hardly  be 
experts  in  municipal  efficiency,  it  is 
suggested  that  an  expert  be  employed 
to  lay  out  a  plan  for  applying  to  city 
business  the  principles  of  business  or- 
ganization that  have  proved  successful 
in  corporate  affairs.  Here,  after  all.  Is 
the  crux  of  the  matter.  No  charter  or 
magic  "plan"  will  ever  give  efficiency 
if  those  managing  it  are  inefficient.  A 
lot  of  politicians  turned  loose  on  tha 
Steel  Trust  would  soon  run  it  upon  the 
scrap    heap. 

Duluth  may  at  this  time  be  excused 
for  singing  the  old  hymn,  "Thus  Far 
the  Lord  Hath  Led  Me  On,"  but  it  is 
also  well  to  remember  what  the  Scrip- 
ture says  about  the  necessity  of  "com- 
ing tip  to  the  Klppf  the  Lord  against 
the    mighty."    ^

When  the  Democratic  party,  separ 
atod  into  hostile  factions,  was  over- 
whelmed In  1S96  It  was  upon  a  question 
of  policy.  Touching  the  fundamentals 
thore  was  mighty  little  difference  be- 
tween the  views  of  Cleveland  and 
Bryan,  John  G.  Carlisle  and  Isham  G. 
Harris.  They  fell  out  about  a  matter 
of  expediency — whether  gold,  or  silver, 
should  be  the  "basic  money".  We  have 
all  heard  of  the  good  man  and  his -good 
wife,  who  lived  In  perfect  and  happy 
acoord  for  half  a  century,  and 
thim  had  a  quarrel  that  culminated  In 
dh'orce,  because  they  could  not  agree 
as  to  whether  it  was  the  incursions  of 
a  rat  or  of  a  mouse  that  Interrupted 
thtilr  rest  one  night.  "The  battle  of  the 
standards"  In  1896,  fierce  and  bitter  as 
{  It  was,  had  as  small  merit  as  basis  of 
quarrel  as  the  trivial  matter  that 
brought  such  disaster  to  the  old  couple 
who  disagreed  over  the  rodent  ques- 
tion. 

Though  it  was  a  long  time  after  gold 
was  established  as  the  standard  before 
tho  Democratic  party  "got  together," 
they  did  come  to  agreement  in  1910  and 
swept  the  country.  Two  years  later 
thoy  elected  a  president  and  obtained 
rnajorities  In  both  houses  of  congress, 
though  the  senate  is  shaky.  But  if  you 
will  read  the  political  writings  of 
WOodrow  ^^11son  you  will  make  dis- 
covery that,  more  than  any  other  pub- 
lic man  of  his  day,  he  has  respect  for 
public  opinion.  He  has  summoned  pub- 
lic opinion  to  help  him  run  the  show, 
and  even  the  United  States  senate,  be- 
fore the  extra  session  of  1913  expires.  Is 
going  to  find  that  public  opinion  Is  its 
master,  and  that  will  be  news  to  it. 
You  let  a  senator  represent  a  sheep 
ranch,  or  a  sawmill.  Instead  of  the  sov- 
ereign people  of  his  state,  and  he  wiU 
find  out  that  there  is  a  red-hot  here- 
after ahead  of  him  that  he  will  be  in- 
continently plunged  Into.

With  the  Republican  party  it  is  dif- 
ferent.  Unlike  the  Democratic  party,  it 
never  had  a  soul,  and  consequently  It 
Is  done  for.  It  was  overwhelmingly 
defeated  in  1892;  but  the  mistakes  of 
some  Democrats  and  the  treasons  of 
others  gave  It  opportunity  to  recuper- 
ate, and,  shifty  scamp  that  it  was.  It 
reaped  golden  harvests  each  of  sixteen 
years  by  taking  advantage  afforded  It 
by  a  national  adversity  of  Its  own  cre- 
ation— the  panic  of  '93. 

But  if  there  be  fatal  blunders  and 
hellish  perfidies  by  Democrats  during 
the  incoming  administration,  they  will 
not  serve  the  G.  O.  P.  The  Bull  Moose 
and  the  Socialists  will  reap  the  benefit 
— unless  the  impossible  should  happen 
and  Hearst  should  acquire  ownership 
of  these  contingents,  something  that  Is 
pra.ctically  unthinkable.  It  depends  on 
the  Democratic  party  whether  Theo- 
dore Roosevelt  shall  again  be  president 
of  the  United  States.

Albert  B.  Cummins,  a  senator  in  con- 
gress from  Iowa,  wants  a  national  con- 
vention of  the  G.  O.  P.  convened  to 
unite  and  harmonize  the  factions.  That 
is  vain  and  impossible — the  idea  of  the 
practical  politician  who  puts  expedi- 
ency above  principle.  To  be  harmoni- 
ous statesmen  must  think  alike,  and 
that  Is  the  only  way  they  can  be 
brought  to  vote  alike.  How  is  Cum- 
mins going  to  get  Taft  and  Roosevelt, 
Aldrich  and  La  Follette.  Penrose  and 
Bristow,  Cannon  and  Murdock,  to  think 
alike?  Charles  J.  Bonaparte  of  Mary- 
land advises  Mr.  Cummins  to  be  less 
hasty  and  wait  till  the  wicked  Demo- 
crats ruin  the  country,  as  he  devoutly 
hopes  they  will  do  and  confidently  ex- 
pects them  to  do. 

The  day  of  your  politician,  who  holds 
that  Harmony,  rather  than  Principle,  is 
the  soul  of  a  political  party  In  a  gov- 
ernment like  ours,  is  past.  It  was  the 
mi.stake  Champ  Clark  made  when  he 
became  a  candidate  for  president.  That 
little  mistake  of  my  friend  Champ  cost 
the  taxpaj-ers  a  pretty  penny,  for  al- 
ready the  annual  pension  appropria- 
tion has  been  augmented  |40, 000,000, 
and  the  account  is  just  opened.  Far  be 
it  from  me  to  say  that  the  speaker  did 
the  thing  with  bad  motive.  His  am- 
bition blinded  him  and  led  him  captive, 
as  it  has  many  a  good  man  in  the  past 
and  will  many  a  good  man  in  the  fu- 
ture. You  will  recall  that  the  chief 
argument  for  Clark  and  Underwood 
was  that  they  had  "harmonized"  the 
Democrat.^  in  congress.  They  did  It 
with  the  big  stick,  and  It  took  them 
weeks  to  take  the  backbone  out  of  the 
Democratic  side  of  the  house,  a  good 
majority  of  whom  was  in  favor  of  free 
raw  materials,  especially  wool.  Theo- 
retically czarism  Is  banished  the  house 
of  representatives.  Practically  there  Is 
as  much  of  It  there  as  when  old  Joe 
Cannon  was  at  his  zenith  and  autocrat. 
Let  the  Democrat  in  private  life,  who 
wants  no  office  but  loves  his  country 
and  believes  in  his  party,  keep  his  eye 
on  the  ways  and  means  committee  and 
see  how  the  vacancies  are  supplied — 
and  then  let  him  cut  a  big  stick  to  use 
at  the  next  primary  If  things  don't  go 
to  suit.

The  year  of  our  Lord  1912  was  preg- 
nant with  momentous  events,  now  ac- 
complished. The  oligarchy  has  given 
place  to  the  democracy.  The  people 
have  gone  Into  politics  and  they  intend 
to  run  the  show.  On  the  Republican 
side  of  the  hedge  the  people  made  the 
Bull  Moose  movement.  The  people  ran 
the  Baltimore  convention.  The  people 
norainated  Woodrow  Wilson.  The  peo- 
ple elected  him  and  gave  him  a  con- 
gress of  his  political  complexion,  "on 
form"  at  least. 

But  that  is  not  all  of  it.  The  people 
are  In  politics  up  to  the  elbow  and  they 
are  going  to  run  the  sixty-third  con- 
gress. Not  only  are  they  armed  with 
the  ballot,  but  they  can  invoke  the 
ostracism,  and  if  there  is  any  monkey 
business  the  people  will  set  on  foot  a 
recill  of  their  own  which  will  have  im- 
mense practical  effect  for  good.  The 
egg-s  of  every  Democrat  in  either  house 
of  congress  are  In  the  Democratic  bas- 
ket, and  the  eggs  of  the  Democratic 
party  are  In  the  Woodrow  Wilson  bas- 
ket. Nobody  can  smash  any  of  those 
eggs  without  the  people  knowing  it, 
and  woe  be  unto  him! 

Soon  the  play  will  begin.

Washington,  Dec.  26. — (Special  to 
The  Herald.) — Interviewing  Senator 
Elihu  Root  is  a  striiln  not  only  upon 
one's  ingenuity,  but  upon  one's  ears. 
The  senator  carries  on  ordinary  con- 
versation in  such  M  low,  well-nigh 
Inaudible  tone  that  it  is  only  with  a 
good  break  of  luck  that  one  can  catch 
all  he  says.  As  It  1«  embarrassing  to 
keep  asking  a  man  to  repeat  things, 
tlie  interviewer  may  let  a  lot  of  stuff 
get  by  him. 

However,  a  time  ago  there  was  a 
matter  that  Root  kn<  w  about  and  that 
a  big  newspaper  wis!  ed  to  l»e  let  In  on. 
The  correspondent  fc^r  the  paper  went 
to  Root  and  asked  him  a  lot  of  things, 
including  one  relating  to  the  matter  he 
wished  especially  to  find  out.  As  ill- 
luck  would  have  It,  Root  replied  so 
huskily  to  that  very  question  that  the 
correspondent  couldn't  understand  a 
word  he  said.  It  was  too  Important 
to  pass  by,  and  the  correspondent  said, 
politely    enough: 

"I  couldn't  catch  that,   senator." 

Root  smiled  a  sly,  dry  smlla  as  he 
observed: 

"I   didn't    intend   that   you   should."

Some  years  ago,  at  the  time  of  the 
Boxer  uprising  in  China,  when  it  looked 
as  if  the  United  States  might  have  to 
step  into  the  ring  with  China,  Root, 
then  secretary  of  war,  was  the  only 
cabinet  officer  In  town,  and  was  run- 
ning practically  the  whole  bloomln* 
government.  Several  prominent  cor- 
respondents went  to  see  him  to  ascer- 
tain if  we  were  going  to  have  war  with 
China.  They  couched  their  questions 
in  diplomatic  language,  which  means 
that  they  asked  notliing  outright,  but 
sought  by  innocent-laoklng  queries  to 
get    a    fact    here    and    a    hint    there. 

Root  parried  all  tlicse  little  attacks 
with  a  facile  skill  born  of  long  experi- 
ence. After  three-quarters  of  an  hour 
of  questions,  the  correspondents  gave 
it  up.  Then  one  man  asked,  just  by 
way   of   bravado: 

"Well,  Mr.  Secretarj-,  are  we  going 
to    have    war    with    China?" 

"Why,   no,"   replied  Root,   promptly. 

That  was  all  they  wished  to  know — 
all  they  had  been  se>?klng  to  learn  by 
their   phalanx   of    ingenius    questions. 

You  see,  the  point  Is  that  Root  saw 
through  the  Ingenuity  of  their  queries 
and  didn't  intend  to  be  outdone  in  any 
match  of  wits.  As  soon  as  they  put 
the  proposition  righ:  up  to  him,  de- 
nuded of  any  strategric  beating-about- 
the-bush,  he  answered  with  the  utmost 
freedom.

As  a  matter  of  fact,  those  connected 
with  the  state  department  become  sick 
and  tired  of  the  diplomatic  form  of  ex- 
pression. An  ambassfidor,  for  example, 
would  never  say:  "My  ruler  wants  to 
know  if  you  will  lend  him  a  match." 
He  would  say:  "I  have  no  doubt  at  all 
that  my  ruler  would  l>e  entirely  pleased 
if  a  condition  would  arise  that  would 
make  it  convenient  for  you  to  lend  him 
a   match."

Representative  Charles  B.  Smith,  of 
Buffalo,  owns  a  newspaper  at  Niagara 
Falls,  where  his  colleague,  James  S. 
Simmons,  was  runningr — unsuccessfully, 
as   It   turned   out — foi    re-election. 

Not  that  he  had  anything  against 
Simmons  at  all,  but  simply  because  the 
latter  Is  a  Republican,  whereas  his 
paper  is  Democratic  Smith  violently 
opposed  Simmons'  r2-electlon.  In  his 
editorial  columns. 

Simmons  didn't  think  this  was  a 
clubby  thing  for  a  colleague  to  do  and 
telephoned  to  Smith  about  it  once  or 
twice  during  the  campaign;  but  Smith 
Insisted  that  politics  Is  politics  and  that 
things  must  take  their  course.  Sim- 
mons was  considerably  vexed  about 
this. 

With  the  election  ever  and  Simmons 
defeated.  Smith. got  to  feeling  sorry 
for  his  colleague.  He  rather  dreaded 
the  opening  of  congn^ss  when  he  must 
meet  Simmons  and  hear  the  unkind 
things  he  would  say  about  him  and  his 
newspaper.  In  fact,  he  was  glad  he 
was  going  to  Panama,  and  wouldn't 
be  here  when  congress  convened.  He 
hoped  that  by  the  time  he  got  back 
Simmons'  sense  of  injury  would  have 
worn   off. 

"You're  to  have  a  seat  at  the  cap- 
tain's table,  "  they  told  Smith  when  he 
got  on  the  boat  for  Panama.  When 
he  went  in  to  dinnei-  he  saw  another 
man  right  next  to  him  at  the  captain's 
table  who  looked   familiar. 

It  was,  of  course,   Jiimmons.

The  Worst  Vote  of  All 

Harper's  Weekly:  Now  that  fairly 
full  returns  are  available  to  show  the 
popular  strength  of  all  the  late  can- 
didates for  presiden:,  we  confess  a 
reasonable  concern  over  the  size  of  the 
vote  for  Debs.  That,  however.  Is  not 
the  vote  that  particularly  worries  us. 
Neither  is  It  the  voi:e  for  Roosevelt. 
The  vote  that  troubles  us  most  Is  the 
vote  that  was  not  cast  at  all. 

Several  millions  of  Americans  who 
could  have  voted  in  (908  did  not  care 
enough  for  the  privilege  to  go  to  the 
polls  and  exercise  It.  This  year  the 
number  of  such  Ami>ricans  has  been 
larger  still.  Take  thu  figures  for  all 
the  elections  since  and  Including  1896 
and  it  Is  perfectly  clear  that  the 
stay-at-home  vote  has  been  pretty 
steadily  Increasing,  [t  has  Increased 
faster  than  the  Socialist  rote.  It  is 
less  creditable  than  the  Socialist  vote. 
On  the  whole.  It  Is  mire  ominous  than 
the  Socialist  vote.  A  Socialist  may  be 
merely  a  mistaken  patriot.  The  stay- 
at-home  gentry  cannot  lay  claim  to 
any  patriotism  at  all.  Socialism  Is  at 
worst  a  disease  of  the  body  politic. 
Indifference  Is  a  chilling  of  the  very 
soul  of  democracy.

cedes— is  in  the  principles  which 
it  proclaims.  It  was  the  first 
solemn  declaration  by  a  nation  of 
the  only  legitimate  foundation  of 
civil  government.  It  was  the  cor- 
nerstone of  a  new  fabric,  destined 
to  cover  the  surface  of  the  globe. 
It  demolished,  at  a  stroke,  the. 
lawfulness  of  all  governments 
founded  upon  conquest.  It  swept 
away  all  the  rubbish  of  accum- 
ulated centuries  of  servitude.  It 
announced,  in  practical  form,  to 
the  world  the  transcendent  truth 
of  the  inalienable  sovereignty  of 
the  people.  It  proved  that  the  so- 
cial compact  was  no  figment  of 
the  imagination,  but  a  real,  solid 
and  sacred  bond  of  social  union. 

From  the  day  of  this  declara- 
tion the  people  of  North  America 
were  no  longer  the  fragment  of  a 
distant  empire,  imploring  justice 
and  nier(:y  from  an  inexorable 
master,  in  another  hemisphere. 
They  were  no  longer  children,  ap- 
pealing in  vain  to  the  sympathies 
of  a  heartless  mother;  no  longer 
subjects,  leaning  upon  the  shat- 
tered columns  of  royal  promises, 
and  invoking  the  faith  of  parch- 
ment to  secure  their  rights.  They 
were  a  nation,  asserting  as  of 
right,  and  maintaining  by  war,  its 
own  existence.  A  nation  was 
born  in  a  day.

thousands  of  corporations  which  have 
leased  their  property,  will  be  argued 
In  the  United  States  supreme  court 
Jan.  6.  The  case  is  that  of  the  Mine 
Hill  &  Schuylkill  Haven  liailroad  com- 
pany, which  sued  the  collector  of  in- 
ternal revenue  at  Philadelphia  for 
J5,000  collected  by  the  government  un- 
der    the     corporation     tax     law.     This 


$4,000,000  corporation,  by  the  authority  ' 
of     the     legislature     of     Pennsylvania, 
leased  its  property  io  the  Philadelphia 
&  Reading  Railroad  company  at  an  an-  ! 
nual  rental  of  |252,(00. 

The  supreme  cour:  has  held  that  the 
corporation  tax  is  inipo!?ed  upon  the 
"doing"'  of  corporate  business  and  the 
point  involved  in  this  case.  Is  whether 


corporations  which  have  thus  leased 
their  property  really  are  "doing  Lusi- 
ness." 

The  government  lost  the  case  in  th« 
lower  courts.

Northern. 

Washington,  Dec.  2f.. — In  a  conver- 
sation had  with  Secretary  Wilson  of 
the  department  of  agriculture  several 
Oays  ago,  he  called  attention  to  the 
fact  that  the  market  prices  for  durum 

\\heat    grown    in       this      country      are 
higher    than    ever    before. 

It    will    be    remembered    that    durum 
or   macaroni    wheat    was    introduced   to 
this   country   by   the  secretary   of  agri- 
culture  in   1898.     It   came  from, the  drv 
regions     of     Southeastern     Russia     and 
was    introduced      as    a    crop      probably 
I  adapted     to     successful     cultivation     on 
;  the  semiarid   plains  of   the  West.    From 
the    point      of    view    of      the      dry-land 
I  farmer,   the  crop  proved  to  be  all   that 
1  was     claimed     for     it     by     the     Federal 
department. 

The  total  acreage  in  this  country 
has  advanced  rapidly  until  two  or 
three  million  acres  are  grown  an- 
nually. Exact  fierurea  on  production 
are  difficult  to  give  because  complete 
st.'\tisties  on  tlils  crop  separate  from 
the  other  classes  of  '.vheat  h.ave  been 
taken  but  once,  namely  In  1899.  The 
states  of  North  TJakota.  South  Dakota 
ard  Minnesota  are  the  leading  produc- 
ers, whilj  Nobrasl;a,  Kansas,  Colorado. 
Wyoming  and  Montana  plant  smaller 
areas. 

When  this  wheat  first  began  to  ap- 
pear on  the  market,  a  crmsideraMo 
rre.iuOice  against  it  developed  on  the 
part  of  the  milling  tra'le  and  the  price 
paid    for    it    was   as   much    as    15    cents

davs  starting  Monday,  Dec.  30,  played 
French  maids  with  Anna  Held  for 
three  seasons.  This  enabled  her  to  be- 
come familiar  with  the  French  man- 
nerisms, and  ^Ilss  Held  assisted  her 
greatly  in  learning  French  and  Spanish. 
Gertrude  is  Just  barely  out  of  her  teens 
and  is  the  chief  support  of  her  parenta 
and  two  younger  brothers.  Her  father 
was  a  prominent  physician  of  Lowe;l, 
Mass.,  until  three  years  ago,  v/hen  he 
met  with  an  automobile  accident  and 
was  obliged  to  give  up  his  practice. 
The  mother  was  also  injured  in  the 
same  smash-up  and  has  been  feeble 
ever  since.  When  Gertrude  is  not  on 
the  stage  she  can  be  found  in  her 
dressing  room  serving  and  embroider- 
ing useful  articles  to  send  home.  To 
talk  with  this  young  lady,  one  would 
think  that  she  hadn't  a  care  in  the 
world,  as  she  appears  to  be  one  of  the 
happiest  artists  on  the  stage.  -

Two  members  of  the  Orpheum  house 
force  celebrated  anniversaries  yeater- 
dav,   in  addition  to  Christmas. 

.Arthur  B.  White,  the  treasurer  and 
assistant  manager  of  the  theater,  and 
Richard  Hanch,  the  stage  manager,  at- 
tended their  1,400th  consecutive  per- 
formance at  the  Orpheum  theater.  Both 
men  have  been  employed  by  the  the- 
ater since  It  was  opened,  and  neither 
of  tliem  has  missed  a  single  perform- 
ance during  that  time.  Mr.  White 
has  sold  tickets  for  fourteen  perform- 
ances a  week  for  100  weeks  without 
missing  one.  Two  or  three  times  he 
has  been  brought  to  the  theater  In  a 
cab,  on  account  of  illness,  but  he  has 
not  vet  missed  a  performance.  During 
that"  time  he  has  probably  sold  more 
than  1,000,000  tickets.  It  would  be  dif- 
ficult to  sav  what  the  average  attend- 
ance at  a  performance  would  be,  but 
the  theater  will  seat  1,600  people,  and 
as  it  is  sold  out  several  times  a  week, 
the  average  attendance  would  probably 
be  close  to  1,000.  To  say  that  Mr.  White 
has  sold  1,000,000  tickets  would  there- 
fore be  a  conservative  estimate. 

Back  of  the  stage  Mi'-  Hanch  has  been 
just  as  steadily  "on  the  Job."  "Dick" 
has  rung  up  the  curtain  for  1,400  per- 
formances. Both  Mr.  White  and  Mr. 
Hanch  received  many  congratulations 
yesterday  both  from  the  other  em- 
ployes and  the  vei-toxfpfra.

FORK\Vt»RD. 

We  have  spent  a  year  on  the  life  of 
Jesua.  Our  review  for  this  quarter 
takes  us  over  the  larger  part  of  the 
last  ynar  of  His  life,  the  only  part 
oniatod  being  the  account  of  His  last 
few  luoiiilia.  We  shall  try  to  set  a 
«-onnected  vi.^w  of  His  activities  dur- 
ing  that   critical   time.

1.   Walklnic  On   the  Sea.   Mark   vl,  45-50. 

It  was  after  feedinj?  the  five  thou- 
Band  on  the  northeast  coast  of  the  sea. 
The  people  were  convinced  that  He 
oui^ht  to  be  made  a  king  and  should 
lead  them  against  their  national  ene- 
my. Rome.  They  deserted  Him  when 
He  would  not  yield  to  their  wishes.  He 
sent  away  tlu-  disciples  when  He  saw 
th'v  \v..i;;,i  1,0  injuied  by  that  pol- 
:)o,si.liore  and  He  did  what 
lu-r  .should  do  when  trouble 
went  oft  alone  to  pray.  Why 
He  walk  on  the  wave  when  He 
ilm  the  sea  by  a  wish?  He 
'  'led  In  person.  Why  should 
they  were  almost  dead 
He   let    them   reach    their

extremity    so    as    to      repudiate      their 
foolish     ambition    that     had    been     e.v- 
cited     by    the    throng. 
::.    <  lean    aud    Inelean.    Mark    vll,    1-23. 

They  made  the  traditions  and  com- 
Tnand.s  of  men  of  more  importance 
than  the  real  commands  of  God.  It  is 
always  that  way  when  we  begin  to 
erect  ceremonial  conditions  of  relig- 
ion. Because  He  didn't  wash  his 
hands  as  often  as  their  rules  required 
for  fear  of  cereinonial  defilement,  thev 
thought  lie  despised  the  good  teach- 
ers of  the  past  and  the  great  inspired 
men  like  Moses.  One  thing  He  did 
for  tli-in,  told  them  Isaiah  had  such 
as  themselves  in  mind  when  he  de- 
scribed those  who  only  do  right  in 
words  .ind  do  wrong  with  their  hearts. 
"With  a  shrewd  verbal  quibble  thej- 
■would  dishonor  their  own  parents 
■would  call  a  thing  "corban"  or  de- 
voted to  God  and  then  use  that  very 
same  thing  for  himself  and  claim  the 
approval  of  God's  word,  or  at  least  of 
the  elders — a  heartless  "trick. 
3.  MIsfiion  to  the  Gentiles.  Mark 
U4..tO;    Mat.    vlll.    R-l.*?. 

He  W'?nt  up  into  Gentile  territory 
to  get  away  from  His  enemies,  es- 
pecially to  take  the  disciples  away 
where  He  could  teach  them  better. 
But  He  cannot  rest.  This  Gentile 
•woman  has  a  strong  claim  on  His 
sympathy  on   account  of  her  daughter. 


Mark   vll,    31- 


vli. 


She  got  what  she  came  for  though  He 
did  not  go  there  to  do  that  kind  of 
work.  He  Intended  (o  give  all  His 
blessings  to  them  later  on,  but  to  do 
it  now  would  spoil  future  work.  So 
He  makes  a  Jew  of  this  woman  by 
developing  her  faith  till  it  was  like 
that  of  Abraham  and  she  was  a 
daughter  of  the  old  father  in  her 
grasp  on  Him.  In  Capernaum  He 
round  a  centurion  who  showed  a  bet- 
ter type  of  faith  than  any  of  His  own 
people  did  and  it  is  a  word  of  hope 
tor  us  all  that  many  more  will  be 
saved  than  we  are  apt  to  imagine  be- 
cause many  whom  we  had  not  sus- 
pected of  it  will  accept  Him, 
•4.  In  Gentile  Country, 
vlli,    lu. 

It  was  on  His  return  from  the  re- 
gion of  Tyre  and  Sidon.  These  two 
instances  are  only  typical  of  many 
others.  The  deaf  and  dumb  man  was 
licaled  by  the  power  of  Christ's  will, 
but  his  faith  was  aided  by  the  way 
Jesus  did  it.  Taking  him  aside  and 
touching  his  ear  and  tongue,  Jesus 
awal:ened  the  necessarv  faith.  But 
the  Master  was  in  touch  ^ith  the 
power  above.  In  the  feeding  of  tht. 
thousands  Ho  use.s  all  kinds  of  mt-ans 
to  aid  the  work — tlie  resources  which 
the  disciples  had,  the  work  they  could 
do  by  waiting  on  the  people,  the  discf- 
pline  of  order  and  system — and  He 
saves  all  the  resources  that  could  be 
useful    later. 

5.  Slgrn  and  Leaven.  Mark  vlli,  11-30. 
The  vicious  and  ill-taught  people 
failed  to  get  the  real  sign  that  He  was 
the  Messiah — which  was  the  works 
He  did.  That  was  sign  enough  for  all 
who  could  discern  and  He  said  they 
should  receive  no  other.  Hypocrisy 
was  the  real  sin  of  the  Pharisees. 
Their  hold  on  their  dupes  depended  on 
befooling  them.  Tli^  hated  Jesus. 
He  tried  to  save  His  disciples  from 
their  deadly  sin,  by  telling  them  to 
beware  of  their  sins,  which  He  called 
"leaven."  He  who  had  fed  the  thou- 
sands could  give  them  bread.  He  v.ho 
taught  truth  must  have  them  free 
from  guile. 

0.  Temperance  I^eason.  IIoHea  \\\. 
The  no.thern  kingdom,  called  Eph- 
raim,  was  ■worse  than  Judah  with 
capital  at  Jerusalem.  Hosea  describes 
what  the  rulers  and  kings  did  away 
back  yonder  700  years  and  more  be- 
lore  Cnrist.  Their  caroucals  were  as 
bad  as  the  New  Year's  night  de- 
bauches of  so-called  leader.s  in  social 
life  In  our  day.  The  stupidity  of 
Kphraim.  which  is  described  in  ter- 
rible terms,  Is  the  very  stupidity  of 
the  public  that  allows  and  the  people 
v..>,^    practice,    drunkenness.      The    two 


vili, 


enemies    of    the    country.       Egypt    and 
Assyria    had   tliem    in    their   power   and 
the    silly     people     did     not     know     how 
liiey    were    being    duped    and    beaten. 
7.     The      Great      Question.     Mark 
27-lx,    1. 

It  was  the  question  as  to  who  He 
was.  asked  by  Him  in  order  to  clarifv 
their  own  ideas  of  Him,  gratify  His 
own  wish  to  be  understood  and  open 
the  way  for  some  very  serious  further 
teachings  about  His  mission.  Their 
f"swer  was  an  inspiration  from  God, 
mough  they  were  not  aware  of  the 
source  of  their  convictions.  The  fur- 
ther serious  teachings  were  that  He 
wasr  to  be  crucified,  but  they  were  not 
ready  for  them.  In  fact,  Peter  said  the 
most  foolish  and  rebellious  thing.  But 
that  mistake  led  Jesus  to  say  some  fur- 
ther things  about  self-giving  that  wo 
have  found  of  the  greatest  value  to  us 
today — that  one  must  save  his  life  by 
giving  it  up  to  Its  higher  uses.

God  brolight  the  inherent  glory  of  His 
Character  out  from  under  the  conceal- 
ing flesh  in  order  to  cheer  Him  for 
His  coming  trials  and  to  instruct  the 
disciples  as  to  His  real  nature  and 
mission.  It  was  the  heaven  within 
Him  raying  forth.  In  order  to  pro- 
duce a  fitting  setting,  it  was  on  a 
mountain  top  above  the  world  and  two 
or  the  residents  of  heaven  were  al- 
lowed to  come  down  and  talk  to  Him 
about  it,  cheering  Him  both  with  the 
experience  of  His  own  glory  and  with 
the  new  assurance  that  the  law  and 
the  prophets  and  all  heaven  were  con- 
cerned in  what  He  was  to  endure  and 
accomplish. 

0.     The    Lunatic    Boy.     Mark   Ix,    14-2<>. 

It    was    down     at    the     foot    of     the 
mountain     after     the     transfiguration. 
Those  disciples    had    cured    such    case.g 
and  they  should  have  done  so  now.   He 
chides   them    for   not   having   the   faith 
they  once  had.     The  value  of  all   nigh 
experience  is  to  enable  us  to  meet  just 
such   needs,   and   so  .Tesus  does.     Ther^- 
are     some     things     that     can     only     be 
done    through    prayer.        The    work    is 
still  to  be  done.     The  lunatic,  In  a  mor- 
al   sense,    is    waiting    for    us    when    we 
come  out  from  our  closets  of  prayer. 
10.     The   Child.     Matt,   xvtli,   1-14. 
The  question  of  precedence  is  alwavs 
up  and  at  the  worst  time.    After  their 
years  of  training  we  wonder  they  ever 
thought  of  such   things.    But  they  did 
and  they  were  warm  about  It,  too.  The 
child    illustrates    two    or    three    traits 
that   each   one  must  have   before  he   is 
In    harmony   with   our  king,   Jesus.    He 
must   be    docile,     trustful    and    uncon- 
scious of  his  own  importance.    A  kin^^'s 


child  plays  with  a  peasant's  and  never 
thinks  of  precedence. 

11.     Forgiveness.     Matt,  xvlil,  15-3.'5. 

ihe  question  is  always  up  for  set- 
tlement and  nothing  short  of  absolute 
and  unconditional  forgiveness  of  thcKO 
Who  have  harmed  us  is  allowed  by  our 
Master.  That  is  the  way  Ho  does  with 
us;  that  is  the  way  others  have 
with  us.  It  must  be 
though    no    one    can 

giveness  till  he  repents  of  his  wrong 
done.  The  injured  one  must  have  that 
forgiveness  ready  every  minute,  have 
It  ready  in  a  loving  way,  do  all  he  c-.an 
to  win  the  offender  to  repentance. 
**•  .t'kristnias  Lesson.  Isaiah  ix,  1-7. 
It  IS  very  important,  In  these  days, 
to  bear  in  mind  that  Jesus  was 
piomised  by  God  through  prophets 
for  ages,  though  they  often  did  not 
know  the  full  significance  of  what 
they  promised.  Their  teachings  w.'re 
always  addressed  to  ajtoaditlon  which 
they  sought  to  remedy  ^and  in  their 
teachings  they  carried,  the  ideals  that 
were  to  be  realized  ffi.  Christ.  Isaiah 
was  called  the  evangelical  prophet,  for 
he  was  ever  telling  the  gl^od  tidings 
of  blessings  that  came  to  be  realized 
in  later  Messianic  vears

Somervllle,  Mass.,  Dec.  26. — A  quarrel 
growing  out  of  a  Christmas  celebra- 
tion resulted  in  the  death  of  Joseph  W. 
McLaughlin,  aged  38  years,  and  the  ar- 
rest  on  a  charge  of  manslaughter  of 
his  brother-in-law.  Michael  J.  Collins, 
41  years  old.  The  Christmas  party 
was  held  at  McLaughlin's  home  in  Lin- 
wood  street.  In  the  quarrel  McLaugh- 
lin was  slashed  twice  across  the  throat 
with  a  razor.  A  wile  and  four  children 
survive  him.

Tivo    Shot    at    Wedding. 

Springfield,  111.,  Dec.  26.— A  Christ- 
mas wedding  ceremony  at  Tavlorville, 
111.,  thirty-sii:  miles  east  of  here,  was 
converted  into  a  tragedy,  and  two  per- 
sons are  at   the  point  of  death. 

John  Belder,  a  carpenter,  to  avenge 
.some  grievance  lie  is  said  to  have  en- 
tertained against  his  wife,  shot  his 
mother-in-law,  Mrs.  Emma  Fisher.  68 
years  old,  and  battled  with  the  Taylor- 
ville  police.  He  was  cornered  and 
caught  by  a  ruse.  AVhen  captured,  it 
was  found  Belder  had  been  shot  near 
the  heart  by  one  of  the  officers.  Mrs. 
Fisher  and  Belder  will  die. 

Belder.    said   to    have   been   drinking, 
went  to  the  home  of  Mrs.  Fisher  in  the 
residence  district  of  TaylorvlUe.  where 
relatives    had    gathered    for    the    wed- 
ding  of   his   step-daughter,   Miss   Elsie 
Bates,  to  Ora  Uedfern.  He  followed  the 
pastor,     Rev.     M.     G.     Coleman     of    the 
TaylorvlUe   Methodist  church,    into   the 
house,  drew  a  revolver  and  began  fir- 
ing at  his  wife.     She  ran  out  of  a  back 
door,    followed    by    her    husband.  Three 
shots  were  fired.     None  were  effective. 
The   frightened   guests   retreated,   with 
the    exception    of    Mrs.    Fisher   and    the 
bride   and   groom,    who   took    refuge   in 
separate  rooms   on   the   upper  floor. 
Fired    Through    Door. 
Going  to  the  room  occupied  bv  Mrs. 
Fisher.   Belder   fired   six   times   through 
tlie  door.     The   first  bullet   took  effect 
in   the  abdomen.     She  finally  managed 
to    crawl    out    of    the    window,    and    es- 
caped to  the  home  of  Dr.  A.  F.  Turner. 
She  was  taken  to  one  of  the  TaylorvlUe 
hospitals.      After   shooting   Mrs.   Fisher, 
Belder  went  to  the  room  in  which  Miss 
Bates    an«    Redfern    had    taken    refuge 
and  fire  five  shots,  none  of  which  took 
effect. 

In  the  meantime  the  police  were  no- 
tified and  rushed  to  the  scene.  Chief 
of  Police  Steven  Link,  Officer  Charles 
Ceaf  and  Deputies  Ben  Davis  and  Lee 
Taylor  began  an  attack.  Belder  came 
to  the  door  and  fired  five  shots  at  the 
officers,  but  none  was  effective.  Dep- 
uty Ceaf  returned  tlie  fire,  seemingly 
without  effect. 

The  bridal  couple  climbed  out  of  the 
window  and  retreated  to  the  home  of  a 
neighbor.  While  they  were  retreating 
from  the  house.  Belder  reappeared  at 
the  door  and  re-opened  fire  on  the 
officer.  Deputy  Davis  retaliated  by 
firing  at  him  with  a  shotgun,  and  Of- 
ficer Ceaf  fired  again  with  his  re- 
volver. One  of  the  bullets  fired  dur- 
ing this  part  of  the  fight  is  thought 
to  have  been  the  one  that  took  effect, 
as  Belder  retreated  Into  the  rear  of  the 
residence. 

D.  C.  Kearns,  slipping  into  the  house, 
found  Belder  with  a  bullet  wound  near 
the  heart,  but  heavily  armed  and  pre- 
paring to  make  it  a  finish  fight.  Kearns 
effected  a  capture  by  pretending  he 
had  come  to  assist  Belder.  The  latter 
was  then   taken   to  a  hospital. 

After  the  excitement,  the  wedding 
guests  reassembled  and  Redfern  and 
Miss    Bates    were    married.

Reasland,  a  farmer,  early  Christmas 
day,  killed  Frank  Alberhasky,  who  is 
said  to  have  been  caught  in  the  act  of 
stealing  Reasland's  chickens.  After 
finding  Alberhasky  In  his  henhouse, 
Reasland  knocked  the  man  down  and 
then  called  a  physician  from  here  to 
attend  him.  While  the  physician  was 
on  his  way  to  the  Rea.sland  home,  the 
farmer  struck  his  victim  with  a  piece 
of  cordwood  and  killed  him.  Reasland 
says  he  acted  in  self-defense.

Lease  Dock   tu    Uuluth. 

The  auditor  recommends  that  the 
dock  site  in  Duluth  liarbor,  for  which 
the  state  paid  $11,000  about  twenty 
years  ago,  be  leased  to  the  city  of  Du- 
lutli  at  the  nominal  rental  of  $1  a 
year,  on  condition  that  Duluth  erect 
wharves  or  wan^houses  thereon.  The 
last  legislature  passed  a  bill  providing 
for  such  a  lease,  but  it  was  found  to 
be  detective. 

Mr.  Iverson  urges  the  creation  of  a 
state  land  department,  to  be  separate 
from  the  auditor's  department.  He 
recommends  the  repeal  of  standing  ap- 
propriations, and  provision  made  for 
each  department  In  the  state's  govern- 
ment to  present  a  budget  to  the  legis- 
lature at  each  session. 

New  Mineral  Leane  Law. 
Ho  particularly  urges  the  enactment 
of  a  new  mineral  lease  law,   and  says, 
in   discussing   reasons    for   it: 

First — It  takes  a  decade  or  more  to 
develop  an   iron  district. 

Second — From  our  experience  in  the 
past  and  from  private  leases  which 
have  been  made,  we  can  now  make  a 
mineral  law  which  will  safeguard  the 
existing  property  Interests  of  the  state 
with  enough  elasticity  to  conform  to 
changing   conditions   in   future   years. 

Third — The  royalty  can  be  based  on 
the  metallic  content  of  the  iron,  in- 
stead of  a  flat  rate,  thus  insuring  pay- 
ment   for    the   full    value    of   the    ore. 

Fourth — Withholding  of  state  lands 
from  exploration  helps  to  retard  the 
development    of    private    lands. 

Fifth — The  lands  go  on  the  tax  rolls 
and  become  contributors  to  the  cost  of 
local    and   state   governments. 

Sixth — The  money  received  from 
royalties  and  fees  would  go  into  per- 
manent funds  and  would  at  once  begin 
to  benefit  the  citizens  of  this  gen- 
eration and  continue  on  for  all  time  to 
come. 

"The  real  question  is,  can  we  now 
prepare  a  law  which  will  guarantee 
a  fair  royalty  and  an  all  around  square 
deal  to  tlie  people  of  the  present  gen- 
eration, and  which  will  be  capable  of 
adjusting  its  provisions  to  meet  the  in- 
evitable changing  conditions  of  fu- 
ture generations?  If  such  a  law  can 
be  framed,  and  it  should  be  egislly 
done,  I  believe  it  would  be  wise  to 
enact   a   new   leasing   law."

Life  of  Hannah  Jensen 

of  Glyndon,  Minn. 

Fargo,  N.  D.,  Dec.  26.— (Special  to 
The  Herald.) — Ptomaine  poisoning  and 
not  poisoned  candy  caused  the  sudden 
death  of  Miss  Hannah  Jensen,  local 
Northwestern  telephone  girl,  this 
morning.  Something  of  a  sensation 
was  created  by  a  rumor  that  her  de^ath 
was  due  to  poisoned  candy,  as  man> 
other  girls  were  also  ill.  Physiclan.s 
decided  that  something  else  she  ate 
clused  Miss  .Tensen's  death.  She  came 
herf  from  Glyndon.  Minn.,  and  was 
about  21.

Andrew  Smith  Wants  Free- 
dom When  Trial  Is  Un- 
duly Postponed. 

Andrew  Smith,  held  a  prisoner  in  the 
county  jail  awaiting  trial  on  four 
counts  charging  him  with  embezzle- 
ment, through  his  attorney,  O.  J.  Lar- 
son, will  attempt  to  have  the  four  in- 
dictments returned  by  the  September 
grand  jury  dismissed  because  of  the 
fact  that  more  than  one  term  of  court 
has  elapsed  since  the  true  bills  were 
rfturncd 

Smith  claims  that  he  is  not  getting  a 
speedy  trial  on  the  charges  and  JB  seek- 
ing his  freedom  on  the  ground  that 
the  countv  attorney  has  failed  to  bring 
him  to  trial  yet  although  he  was  In- 
dicted In  September.  Smith  was  tried 
on  a  count  returned  by  the  November 
grand   jurv   and   was   found   not   guilty. 

Judge  Dibell  has  signed  an  order 
which  notifies  the  county  attorney  to 
appear  In  court  Saturday  morning  at 
10  o'clock  and  show  cause  why  the 
court  should  not  dismiss  the  charges. 
Smith  has  been  in  Jail  since  his  arre.st 
in  September.  He  was  formerly  man- 
ager of  the  Northland  Mercantile  com- 
pany,   now    bankrupt.  .

bezzling the  company's  money.

COINS  CIRCULATED 

Christmas     Season     Has 

Brought  Rush  of  Bad 

Change. 

Washington  Dec.  26.  —  There  has 
been  a  remarkable  activity  of  small 
coins  counterfeited  during  the  last  few 
weeks,  attributed  by  secret  service 
officials  to  the  rush  of  the  Christmas 
season,  when  offenders  expected  to 
pass  spurious  uoney  on  the  hurrying 
public.  Most  cf  the  counterfeits  were 
half   dollars    circulated    In    the    East. 

The  arrest  at  New  York  on  Christ- 
mas eve  of  Lonis  Julien,  charged  with 
making  and  rlrculating'  bad  money, 
makes  the  fourth  recent  arrest  of 
counterfeiters.

THE  ENGLISH  ARE  CHILDREN. 

Meredith  Nicholson.  In  the  Atlantic 
Monthly:  The  English  are  children.  An 
Englishman  is  at  no  moment  so  de- 
lightful as  when  he  lifts  his  brows 
and  say.'=<,  "Really!"  'the  Frenchman  at 
his  sidewalk  table  watches  the  world 
go  by  with  unwearied  delight.  At  any 
moment  Napoleon  may  appear;  or  he 
may  hear  great  news  of  a  new  drama; 
or  the  latest  Hon  of  the  salon  may- 
stroll  by.  Awe  and  wonder  are  still 
possible  in  the  German,  bred  as  he  Is 
upon  sentiment  and  fairy-lore.  The 
Italian  Is  beautifully  credulous. 

On  mv  first  visit  to  Paris,  havlngf 
arrived  at  midnight,  and  been  estab- 
lished in  a  hotel  room  that  hung  above 
a  courtvard,  which  I  felt  confident  had 
witnessed  the  quick  thrusts  of  Por- 
thos.  Athos  and  Aramls,  I  awoke  at  an 
early  hour  to  the  voice  of  a  child 
singing  in  the  area  below.  It  has  al- 
wavs  seemed  to  mo  that  that  artless 
song  flung  out  upon  the  bright 
charmed  morniHg  came  upon  the  very- 
heart  of  France.  France,  after  hun- 
dreds of  years  of  achievement,  pro- 
digious labor,  and  staggering  dofcaW 
is  still  a  child  among  the  natjons.

from    the    venerable    brow    of    John 
Lawrence   Sullivan.     No  other  white 
man  wanted  any  of  the  Jackson  irode 
of     destruction.       What     the     great 
colored  fighter  did  to  Joe   McAuliflfe 
on   the  coast  was  quite  sufficient  for 
the    rest   of   the   brigade.      And   then 
I  came  young  Jim  Corbett  and  his  of- 
i  fer  to  fight  Jackson. 
1      They   laughed   at    the   brilliant    ex- 
I  amateur.     It  was  the  case  of  a  great 
i  young  man.  a  brilliant  boxer,  against 
I  one    of    the    greatest    fighters,    if    not 
j  the  greatest  fighter  that  the  ring  has 
j  ever   seen    in    action.      You    all    know 
the   result.     Jackson    outweighed    the 
wonderful   Corbett.  and  even  if  Jack- 
son   vyasn't   in   the  best  of  shape,   the 
showing     of     Pompadour     Jim     was 
something    that    the    world    marveled 
?t.  and  T>roved  an  exhibition  of  gamc- 
ness,  brilliancy  and  speed  that  marked 
the  youngster  as  one  of  the  masters 
of  the  ring. 

Giving  Jackson  the  credit  'hat  h- 
has  fairly  won  in  the  boxing  hall  of 
fame.  Corbett  will  always  rank  as  a 
great  fighter  as  the  result  of  the 
showing  he  made  ag.Tinst  the  giant 
colored  man:  the  bogie  man  who  was 
confidently  expected  to  snuff  the  as- 
pirations of  the  San  Francisco  boy.

WOLGAST  BOOSTS  YOUNG 

PHILADELPHIA  O'BRIEN 

Former  Lightweight  Champion  Says  Big  Jack's  Brother 

Is  Faster  Than  Kilbane. 


PAL  BROWN  WINS 

FROM  DKK  HYLAND 


has  been  staged  in  the  West  for  many 
years  It  is  stated  that  a  Duluth  man 
Is  to  have  a  boat  built  e.'?iJ'ecially  to 
compete  in  this  regatta. 


The  most  remarkable  rise  from 
ab.solute  obscurity,  as  far  as  the  box- 
ing game  is  concerned,  13  tiiat  of 
Young  Jack  O'Brien,  brother  of  the 
celebrated  Philadelphia  Jack  O'Brien, 
at  one  time  middle  and  lightweight 
world.     Young    Jack  I 


champion    of    the 


lias   always    been    devoted 


Knockout  Brown  was  most  sensa- 
tional. IIv  outpointed,  outgeneraled 
■Mid  outslugged  tiie  Gotham  wonder 
and  proved  himself  indeed  a  rimark- 
able  fistlcufflan — a  pugilistic  marvel 
of  the  age. 

Ad     Wolgast     has     intimate       knowl- 
edge of  O'Brien's  prowess,  gained  from 
I  a  short  six-round  whirl  that  th©>  cham- 


brother,    and    even    while    ^'^'u^l,  "^j^  i  Pi*?".  bad  with_  the  Quaker  lad  at  Phila 
knee      breeches,      declared      he,      some  ; 


day,  would  be  a  tighter,  too,  and  he 
has  kept  his  word.  i^ven  while  at 
college.  Young  Jack  was  practicing 
with  the  gloves  in  secret  and  soon  be- 
came so  proficient  that  none  of  his 
classmate.s,  altliough  all  older  than  he, 
could  stand  before  him.  Just  before 
graduation  last  June  Young  Jack  de- 
clared himself  and  told  his  parents 
that  he  would  adopt  boxing  as  a  pro- 
fe.ssion,  and  despite  protests  from  his 
father,  mother,  and  even  Big  Jack 
himself,  he  secured  an  engagement 
and  boxed  a  lad  named  Uscar  Will- 
iams. Tho  bout  went  six  rounds  and 
in  it  he  showed  so  much  class  that 
Big  Jack  quickly  recognized  in  him  a 
worthy 


delphia  last  May,  therefore  what  Ad 
has  to  say  concerning  the  youngstei  ia 
not  based  on  hearsay.  Furthermore, 
Wolgast  is  not  given  to  boosting  a  pos- 
.sible  rival  unduly;  hence  It  must  fol- 
low that  when  the  champion  chatters 
it   is   worthy    of   notice. 

'I  consider  O'Brien  faster  than 
either  Gibbons  or  Kilbane."  said  Wol- 
gast a  few  days  ago.  "The  boy  is  like 
a  flash.  Why,  he  made  me  miss  punch 
after  punch  in  the  first  two  rounds, 
and  it  was  not  until  I  copped  him  with 
a  left  and  dropped  him  for  the  count 
in  the  second  round  that  I  could  get 
any  of  my  body  blows  home.  The  blow 
hurt  him  badly,  but  tie  recovered 
quickly  enough  and  in  the  last  three 
rounds  he  was  fighting  as  fast  aa  ever. 

■•.Say,    he    threw    no    many    gloves    at 


successor      to      himself,      and  ^^-        ..  ,,         x   *w         i...     ,.   ^

game.  So  thoroughly  has  Big  Jack 
done  this  that  today  Y'oung  Jack  is 
recognized  as  the  most  likely  succes- 
sor to  the  title  of  lightweight  cham- 
pion. Since  his  bout  with  Williams 
Ycung  Jack  has  met  and  defeated 
some   of   the   best    lightweights    in   the 


country.

foxy  as  any  of  them.  I  mean  whii:  I 
say,  and  I  know  what  I  am  talking 
about.  You  want  to  watch  that  fel- 
low. I  think  he'll  make  good.  Wltl.  a

CHICAGO  IS  HARBORING 
TWO  NEW  WHITE  HOPES 


Chicago,  Dec.  26. — ^The  white  hope  In- 
diAstry  is  booming  at.  a  furious  clip. 
With  Jess  Wlllard  and  Jack  Leon,  two 
of  the  new  crop,  in  our  midst,  Chicago 
is  the  geological  center  of  boxing  from 
a  heavyweight  standpoint.  Jack  Leon, 
under  the  exploitation  of  one  Mark 
Shaugnessy,  the  former  globe  trotter 
and  in  recent  years  a  promoter  of  box- 
ing and  a  handler  of  hopeful  cham- 
pions. Is  the  latest  to  come  to  the  front 
and  demand  recognition  as  a  possible 
heavyweight  champion. 

By  signing  for  a  battle  with  Je.'»s 
Wlllard,  Leon  will  be  able  to  test  hi.s 
ability  in  this  section  of  the  country, 
and  from  present  indications  it  will  be 
some  mawling  jamboree. 

Wiilard  is  a  little  better  known  hare 
than  Leon.  Wiilard  learned  his  rudi- 
mentary lessons  at  Bill  O'Connell's, 
where  he  started  out  as  a  raw  hand 
under  the  direction  of  Charley  Cutler, 
the      heavyweight      wrestler.  Cutler 

picked  him  up  in  the  West  and  told 
him  to  come  here  and  he  would  see 
what  was  in  his  make-up.  .Since  start- 
ing out.  Wiilard  has  come  to  the  front 
fast.  His  greatest  asset  is  his  willing- 
n^ess  to  learn.  That's  what  couats  in 
developing  a  champion. 

Cbasetl   Oat   of   nuMstla. 

Leon  started  out  in  life  as  a  slayer 
of  bullies  in  Russia,  where  he  origi- 
nated. He  was  such  an  active  battler 
that  he  had  to  make  a  hurried  exit 
before  the  czar  called  out  the  Cossack.s 
to  quiet  him.

WRESTLERS  MAY  BE

Other    News    and  Gossip 

of    the    Mat 

Experts. 

For  the  first  time  in  the  history  of 
wrestling  in  this  city  a  moving  picture 
concern  made  an  offer  to  get  a  film 
of  a  wrestling  match  to  be  held  in  Du- 
luth. A  Chicago  company  wants  the 
rights  to  exhibit  a  moving  picture  of 
the  Miller-Matsuda  finish  match,  whioli 
will  be  held  at  the  Auditorium  a  week 
from    tomorrow   night. 

In  the  letter  wording  the  request, 
the  moving  picture  men  expressed  the 
belief  that  the  coming  match  would  be 
one  of  the  best  that  could  be  possibly 
be  reproduced  for  the  "movies,''  as  it 
should  be  fast,  full  of  action  and  one 
of  the  most  scientific  contests  that  has 
been  wrestled  in  the  United  States 
since  tlie  famous  match  between  Miller 
and  Max  Lutberg,  when  the  latter  was 
deprived  of  the  welterweight  title  of 
the   world.

From  the  dispatches  It  would  appeaf 


Now  Leon  confines  his  fighting  to 
tlie  ring  and  is  working  out  at  O'Gpn- 
nell's  each  afternoon. 

Leon  headed  for  these  shores  and 
wrestled  for  a  couple  of  years  before 
taking  up  the  fighting  game.  While  on 
the  coast  Shaughnessy  looked  him 
over.  He  tried  the  big  fellow  out  a«d 
he  looked  so  good  to  Mark,  who  is 
some  judge  of  fighters,  having  been 
a  promoter  around  Frisco  for  some 
years,  that  he  was  sffen^d  at  once.  Al 
Kaufmann  and  otl)er  heat-^-weights  on 
the  coast  steered  clear  of  the  Russia u. 

Unlike  most  men  who  have  followed 
wrestling,  Leon  is  not  muscle-bound. 
He  has  a  wonderful  left  jab  which  he 
keeps  in  working  order  by  punciiing 
the  bag.  In  his  daily  workouts  at 
O'Connell's,  he  has  shown  adaptability 
for  bqxing.  He  looks  good  and  it  re- 
mains to  be  seen  in  his  battle  with 
Wiilard  just  how  much  hu  l»ii«  -iin- 
proved. 

RuMAlnn    Is   Imyrovlns. 

At  any  rate,  Shaughnessy  is  spend- 
ing time  and  money  to  bring  his  huge 
Russian  to  the  front.  "He's  just  24 
years  of  age,  can  hit  like  a  murderer, 
has  the  height  and  r?ach,"  says  Mark, 
•'and  I'll  risk  a  little  sum  on  his 
chances.  In  one  bout  in  Maine  he  hit 
a  fellow  so  hard  that  he  nev^t  recOhf- 
ered.  All  I  ask  is  a  chance  to  show 
him  off.  He'll  do  .cm  I  never  knew 
anything  about  a  fighter.  He's  got  the 
goods  and  I  expect  to  take  him  to  the 
coast  and  make  a  bid  for  the  heavy- 
weight title  which  Tom  McCarey  is 
trying  to  solve."

With  the  passing  of  the  first  of  the 
year  there  is  going  to  be  a  sure  re- 
vival of  the  Interest  in  wrestling. 
George  Lurich,  the  greatest  of  all  Rus- 
sian wrestlers,  has  landed  in  this  coun- 
try and  is  looking  for  matches  with 
the  best  men  in  the  United  States. 

Lurich  is  really  one  of  the  great 
wrestlers  of  the  world  and  his  coming 
will  add  interest  to  the  game.  Then, 
too,  there  are  rumors  that  Yussiff 
Mahmout  is  to  come  over,  and  if  he 
does  there  is  bound  to  be  a  match  that 
will  either  show  the  hand  of  Gotch  or 
definitely  determine  whether  the  pres- 
ent champion  Is  out  of  the  game.  In 
that  event  it  will  be  up  to  Zbyszko. 
Mahmout,  Lurich  and  pos.'sibly  tne

wrestling  championship  of  the  world.

Officials  of  the  Empire  Athletic  club 
of  Chicago  have  written  here  asking 
that  Lurich  be  given  a  date  in  Duluth 
with  one  of  the  best  heavyweights  in 
the  world.  They  all  know  that  this 
town  is  one  of  the  best  wrestling 
towns  In  the  country,  consequently 
the  managers  like  to  book  the  big 
stars   in  Duluth. 


As  usual.  Hot

the  Red  Sox.  will  be  there.  Two  .Na- 
tional league  clubs  expect  to  be  there 
also — the  Pirates,  wiio  have  a  per- 
manent diamond  there  of  their  own 
and  the  Phillies. 

Texas  \vili  again  see  the  champion 
Giants  and  the  ex-champlon  Athletics, 
the  latter  being  at  San  Antonio,  tho 
former  at  Marlin. 

,,  T*^.^  White  Sox  expect  to  break  into 
<  aUiornina,  probably  Anally  locating  rit 
Paso  Robles;  the  Yanks  will  be  farthest 
from   them  at  Bermuda.

Louis,  both  teams  having  considered 
Columbus  seriously. 

Washington  will  again  be  at  Char- 
lottesville, Va.,  and  the  St.  Louis 
Americans  are  expected  to  do  most  of 
tlieir  work  at  St.  Louis. 

'The  Tigers,  of  course,  will  bp  at

Chicago  accompanies  Cleveland  to

to  announce  as  yet  to  ju.st  what  part

Boston  changes  from  Augusta,  Ga.,  to 
Athene,  in  the  same  -state. 

The  official  dope,  direct  from  the 
various  headquarters,  sheds  but  little 
light  on  the  spring  plans.  Connie  Mack 
says  that  he  has  laid  no  plans  as  yet, 
either  as  to  the  time  of  starting  or 
what   his   men   shall   do. 

The  White  Sox  expect  to  decide  defi- 
nitely on  a  location  within  the  next  fif- 
ten  days.  W.  R.  Blackwood,  the 
Cleveland  secretary,  says  the  team  will 
report  March  4.  There  will  be  twenty- 
eight  in  the  party.  The  Nationals  will 
report  at  Charlottesville  a  dav  earlier. 
March  3.  The  Red  Sox  will  be  on  deck 
a  week  later,  March  10. 

From  the  Brooklyn  office  comes  the 
Information  that  the  matter  of  training 
camp  is  up  to  Manager  Dahlen,  who  Is 
lnTtee-i5outh  looking  over  sites 

Early  in  March  the  Pirates  will  re- 
port at  W>8t  Baden  for  a  few  days 
before  going  to  Hot  Springs.  The  Reds 
will  report  at  Mobile  about  March  1, 
and  will  remain  there  until  March  23  or 
24.  The  Braves  will  report  to  Manager 
Stallings  at  Athens  the  first  week  ia 
March. 

Some  managers  are  of  the  opinion 
that  long  training  sieges  are  necessary. 
Among  these  the  leader  is  John  Mc- 
Graw  of  the  Giants.  Others  are  of  the 
idea  that  only  pitchers  need  a  long 
time  to  get  into  shape  and  are  cutting 
the  length  of  the  trips.

Chicago,      claimant      to      the      world's 

heavyweight     wrestling    championship, 

lost  in  two  successive  falls  to  Zbyszko, 

the  European  champion,  last  night. 
The  first  fall  came  at  the  end  of  one 
hour  and  twelve  minutes  after  both 
men  had  been  thrice  tumbled  out  of  the 
ring. 

What  appeared  to  some  of  the  spec- 
tators as  a  blow  on  the  chin,  given 
by  Zbyszko  resulted  in  Cutler  falling 
to  the  mat  with  the  European  on  top, 
and  the  fall  was  giyen  to  Zbyszko. 
The  second  fall  was  secured  in  13 
minutes,  10  seconds,  with  a  head  over

FOOTBALL  IN  BOISE. 

Chicago  High    School    Meets  Defeat 
in  Idaho  City  Christmas. 

Boise,  Idaho,  Dec.  26. — The  aid  of  a 
long  forward  pass  gave  Boise  the  only 
score  In  the  football  game  here  yes- 
terday  between   the   Boise   high   school 

and  the  Wendell  Phillips  high  school 
of  Chicago,  the  score  being  6  to  0. 
The  touchdown  by  Boise  was  made  in 
the  third  quarter,  after  the  two  teams 
had  bucked  each  other  up  and  down 
the  field  without  either  gaining  an 
advantage.  Both  teams  played  straight 
football  in  the  first  two  periods,  but 
so  evenly  matched  were  the  teams 
that  no  trains  were  made  and  the  ball 
was    lost     repeatedly. 

In  the  second  half  the  teams  changed 
their  tactics  and  resorted  to  end  runs 
and  forwar<1  passes.  Boise  was  success- 
ful with  a  long  forward  pass,  and 
made  a  touchdown,  but  was  unable  to 
kick  goal.  Both  teams  were  penalized 
heavily    throughout    the   game.

EDOUARD  MYUUS 

TO  BE  DEPORTED 


Libeler  of  King  George  Re- 
fused Admission  as 
Undesirable. 

New  York.  Dec.  26. — The  board  of 
Inquiry  sitting  at  Ellis  Island  has  or- 
dered the  deportation  as  an  undesir- 
able immigrant  of  Edouard  Myllus,  tlie 
English  journalist  who  wrote  for  a 
Paris  newspaper  the  story  that  King 
George  had  contracted  a  morganatic 
marriage  in  Malta  with  the  daughter  of 
Sir  Michael  Culme-Sehmour,  now  Mrs 
Trevelyan  Napier,  wife  of  a  captain  In 
the   Royal   navy. 

Myllus  arrived  here  on  the  La  Prov- 
ence. 

King  George  took  cognizance  of  the 
report  by  suing  Mylius  for  libel.  Mylius 
was  found  guilty  in  January  last  and 
sentenced  to  a  year  in  prison  at  hard 
labor.  He  was  released  a  short  time 
ago  after  having  a  month  subtracted

The    weather  mun 
had  iho         right 

Christmas  spirit. 
He  sent  a  fair,  mild 
day  that  everybody 
could  enjoy.  Con- 
tinued fair  weatlier 
is  predicted,  and 
there  will  be  a  de- 
cided drop  in  tem- 
perature tonight, 
according  to  the 
forecast. 

The       mercury 
dropped  to  zero  a  year  ago  today. 

Today  is  the  last  of  the  eight  short- 
est days  in  the  year.  The  sun  rose  this 
morning  at  7:54  and  it  will  set  at  4:21 
this  evening,  giving  eight  hours  and 
thirty   minutes  ©f  sunlight. 

Mr.  Richardson  makes  the  following 
comment   on   weather  conditions: 

"Fair  weather  and  moderate  tem- 
peratures were  the  rule  during  the 
last  twenty-four  liours.  What  precipi- 
tation that  occurred  was  in  small 
amount  and  confined  to  Eastern  Mani- 
toba, Western  L.ake  .Superior,  North- 
western Oregon,  Northeastern  Colo- 
rado, Southern  Florida  and  Eastern 
South  Carolina.  Somewhat  cold(!r 
weather  has  developed  in  th«  Rocky 
mountain  region,  the  Dakotas  and  Ne- 
braska. This  condition  will  doubtless 
reach  the  Head  of  the  Lakes  tliis  aft- 
ernoon and  tonight.''

Pimples  and  Rash  on  Them.  Very  Painful. 

Nisula.  Mich. —  "I  had  long  been  suffer- 
ing with  sore  itching  hands.  There  were 
pimples  and  rash  on  them,  and  they  were 
very  painful.  Water  hurt  them  dreadfully. 
My  hands  looked  very  red  and  rough,  and 
were  un.sigfaily.  I  lost  sleep,  and  would 
banilagc  them  up  for  relief.  I  washed  my 
bauds  with  Cuttoura  Soap  and  applied  Cuti- 
cura CJintmcnt.  Every  night  Ijcfore  retiring 
I  did  likewise.  My  hands  are  entirely  cured."

CHOOSE  DEBATERS, 

Two  Harbors  High  Team  for  Coming 
Contest  Selected. 

Two  Harbors.  Minn..  Dec.  26. —  (Spe- 
cial to  The  Herald.)— The  high  school 
faculty  announced  the  members  of  the 
debating  team  selected  from  the  vari- 
ous students  who  took  part  in  the  two 
preliminary  debates  held  here  a  few 
weeks  ago  as  follows:  Albin  Wal,- 
strom,  Dick  Erickson  and,  William 
Dwan.  Two  of  the  members,  Wal- 
strom  and  Ericks(a»*  were  on  the  de- 
bating team  which  represented  the 
local  school  last  year  and  their  experi- 
ence will  no  doubt  prove  useful  in  the 
debates  scheduled  during  the  coming 
winter.  With  good  coaching  prospects 
for  the  local  high  school  to  have  an- 
other chapionship  team  this  year  are 
exceedingly  bright.  It  was  very  evi- 
dent during     the     preliminary  debates 


Costs  Little,  But  Does  the  'Work 


J 


Mix  one  pint  of  granulated  sugar  with 
%  pint  of  warm  water,  and  stir  for  2 
minutes.  Put  2V2  ounces  of  Pinex  (filty 
cents'  worth )  in  a  pint  bottle ;  then  add 
the  Sugar  Syrup.  Take  a  teaspoonful 
every  one,  two  or  three  hours. 

You  will  find  that  this  simple  rem- 
edy takes  hold  of  a  cough  more  quickly 
than  anything  else  you  ever  used.  _  Usu- 
ally ends  a  deep  seated  cough  inside 
of  24  hours.  Splendid,  too,  for  whoop- 
ing cough,  croup,  chest  pains,  bronclii- 
tis  and  other  throat  troubles.  It  stim- 
ulates the  appetite  and  is  slightly  lax- 
ative, which  helpa  end  a  cougn. 

This  recipe  makes  more  and  better 
cough  syrup  than  you  could  btiy  ready 
made  for  ^2.50.  It  keeps  perfectly  and 
tastes  pleasantly. 

Pinex  is  the  most  valuable  concen- 
trated compound  of  Norway  white  pine 
extract,  and  is  rich  in  guaiacol  antl  all 
the  natural  pine  elements  which  are  so 
healing  to  the  membranes.  Other  prep- 
arations will  not  work  in  this  formula. 

This  plan  of  making  cough  syrup  -with 
Pinex  and  sugar  syrup  (or  strained 
honev)  ha.s_proven  so  popular  through- 
out the  United  States  and  Canada  that 
It  is  often  imitated.  But  the  old,  suc- 
cessful formula  has  never  been  equaled. 

A  ppiaranty  of  absohitft  satisfaction, 
Or  money  promptly  refunded,  goes  with 
this  recipe.  Your  druggigt  has  Pinex  or 
^v^ll  get  it  for  vou.  If  not,  send  to  TliQ

Ivor  Lahti,  a  laborer,  was  stabbed  In 
the  shoulder,  arm  and  forearm  last 
night  by  John  Wltala,  bartender  in 
Peterson's   saloon   on    St.   Croix   avenue. 

Witala  was  arrested  by  Patrolman 
Nell  Mooney  on  a  charge  of  assault 
with  a  dangerous  weapon.  Lahti's 
wounds  were  dressed  by  Dr.  I.  J.  Mur- 
phy, police  surgeon.  Five  stitches 
required  to  close  the  gash  in  the 
arm  while  the  other  two  wounds 
of    a    minor    nature. 

The  police  say  Witala  admits 
he  stabbed  Lahti  but  that  he  claims 
he  acted  in  self  defense.  He  told  the 
officers  that  Lah%»  was  one  of  a  gang 
of  five  men  who  set  upon  him  and 
that  he  plied  a  pocket  knife  to  protect 
himselr.  This  story  is  not  substanti- 
ated by  others  who  were  in  the  place, 
according   to   the   police. 

Witala  waived  examination  when  iie 
was  arraigned  in  police  court  this 
morning  and  was  bound  over  to  await 
the  action  of  the  next  grand  jury. 
Lahti  told  the  police  that  he  did  not 
want  to  prosecute  him  and  asked  that 
the  case  be  dropped.  The  police  have 
been  unable  to  obtain  the  full  facts  of 
the  case.  All  that  Is  certain  is  that 
the  two  were  scuffling  on  the  floor 
when  the  knife  was  brought  into  play. 
Witala's  coat  was  slashed,  which  leads 
the  authorities  to  believe  that  both 
men   were  armed   witli   knives. 


OPPORTUNITIES  IN 

NORTHERN  MINEESOTA 


August  Tlllmans,  a  young  man  of 
Au,rora,  Minn.,  who  recently  estab- 
lished a  wholesale  and  retail  cigar 
business  in  that  town,  was  a  visitor 
In  iuluth  today  and  in  an  interview 
declared  that  the  range  country  of 
Northern  Minnesota  offered  the  ambi- 
tious young  man  mor*  opportunity  than 
any  other  I'art  of  the  ^N'orthwest.  He 
said  Aurora  was  having  a  splendid 
run  of  business  this  season  and  the 
business  men  of  that  place  looked  lor 
the  best  year  of  all  in  1913.  He  used 
to  work  in  a  wholesale  grocery  house 
In  ! Minneapolis.  His  friends  begged 
him  to  stay,  declaring  that  there  was 
no  chaTice  for  him  in  Northern  Minne- 
sota, but  he  went  in  spite  of  them  and 
"itadJ- good."  He  said  many  of  his 
former'  associates  in  that  business 
house  were  still  working  at  their  desks 
an«  dM^wlng   $12  a  week.

Broken     F"lange     Wrecks 
Great  Northern  Train- 
Two  Men  Injured. 

Williston,  Minn.,  Dec.  26. —  (Special 
to  The  Herald.; — All  but  the  two  rear 
coaches  on  Train  No.  7,  the  St.  Paul, 
Winnipeg  Great  Nxtrthern  Flyer,  north 
bound  this  morning  at  2  o'clock  were 
I  derailed   between    Borup   and    Felton. 

Baggageman  W.  E.  Woods  of  .St. 
I  Paul  had  his  back  injured  and  the

Forks.  The  train  was  backed  up  to 
Barnesville  and  sent  north  via  Fargo 
and  Grand  Forks,  thence  back  to 
Crookston    and    to    Winnipeg. 

No.  5  from  ,St.  Paul  west,  went 
via  Fargo  and  Grand  Forks  so  that 
Crookston  will  get'  no  Twin  City  or 
Eastern    mail    today.

Departure  of  Greeks  and 

Montenegrins  Adds  to 

the  Stringency. 

The  going  of  some  of  the  Greeks, 
Montenegrins  and  Servians  from  this 
part  of  the  country  has  added  Us  little 
mite  to  the  difficulty  employers  of  la- 
bor aie  having  in  securing  men  for  the 
various  lumber  camps,  railroad  work 
and  other  kind  of  work  that  employ 
large    numbers    of    laborers. 

Greeks  and  Montenegrins  are  em- 
ployed largely  on  railroad  work  in  thl.s 
section  of  the  state,  and  it  is  estimated 
that  about  500  of  these  people  have 
gone  to  Europe  to  fight  against  the 
hated  Turk.  Taken  with  the  present 
shortage  of  labor,  this  adds  to  the  dif- 
ficulties of  those  searching  for  men  to 
help  out  with  the  immense  amount  of 
labor  that  there  ia  to  do  in  all  lines. 


AUSTRIANS  TEAR  FLAG. 

Action  starts  Riot  in  Los  Angeles- 
Several  Injured. 

Los  Angeles,  Cal.,  Dec.  26. — A  small 
riot  occurred  when  a  band  of  Austrians 
who  were  holding  a  Christmas  fete 
decided  not  to  use  a  United  States  flag, 
behind  which  they  had  been  marching 
in  a  short  parade. 

Austrians  began  tearing  the  flag  to 
pieces.  Some  Americans  saw  them  and 
nmonstrated  with  their  fists.  The 
Americans  were  fewer  in  number  than 
the  Austrians,  and  would  have  suf- 
fered defeat,  had  it  not  been  for  the 
ai  rival     of     the     police.       The       officers 


Always  Have  Musterole 
in  the  House 

Every  famil"/  should  have  a  jar  of 
MUSTEROLE   at   hand. 

MUSTEK(  tLE  is  a  clean,  white  oint- 
ment, which  takes  the  place  of  the 
old-fashioned  mustard  plaster  and 
does  not  blister. 

No  plaster  isi  necessary,  simply  rub 
it  on — and  the  pain  is  gone! 

It  is  the  quickest  relief  for  Sore 
Throat,  Bronchitis,  Tonsilitis,  Croup, 
Stiff  Neck,  Asthma,  Neuralgia,  Head- 
ache, Congestion,  Pleurisy,  Rheuma-

the  Back  or  Joints,  Sprains,  Sore  Mus- 
cles, Bruises,  Chilblains,  Frosted  Feet, 
Colds  cf  the  Ciest  (it  prevents  Pneu-

SICK  MEN 

WE  WILL  CURE  YOU 


Mothers 


Don't  depend  upon  your  children's  teach- 
ers or  employers  to  instill  the  thrift  habit 
In  them.  The  place  to  teach  thrift  is  in 
the  home. 

And  the  best  method  is  by  example.  Let 
"mother"  have  a  savings  account  xx.  the 
First  National  and  the  children  will  want 
one  too. 

A  little  friendly  rivalry  in  the  family  in 
the  matter  of  saving  will  do  much  to  de- 
termine the  future  success  and  happiness  of 
its  members.

DRY  WEATHER 
IN  SOUTHWEST 

Wheat    Goes    Higher    on 

North  American  Markets 

at  This  Report. 


Flax  Works  Still  Lower- 
Crushers  Not  at  All 
Eager  to  Buy. 


DuUith  Board  of  Trade,  Dec.  26.— Th.> 
report  of  continued  dry  weather  in  tl»e 
•winter  wheat  section  of  the  Southwest 
caused  ii  bullish  movement  ol  fla.\seod 
on  thj  markets  of  Nortii  America  to- 
day. Duluth  Deecmber  wheat  closed 
•\c  hiarher  than  Tue.sday.  Cash  wh^'at 
closed  >20  o\  er  l»ecember.  Durum 
closed  S'e  up,  oats  Vgo  i>ff  and  rye  and 
barley  unchanjjed.  Duluth  l>ecember 
and  May  flaxseed  closed  l^c  off  and 
Janu.uo'  l^c  off. 

Wheat  was  bulled  on  the  markets  of 
North  America  this  morning  largely  by 
ll'.e  action  of  shorts,  who.  having  failed 
by  previous  selling  to  bear  the  market, 
wore  hastening  to  get  rid  of  their  ob- 
ligations. There  seemed  to  be  a  gen- 
eral feeling  that  the  wheat  market  of 
the  United  States  was  again  practic- 
ally on  a  domestic  basis  and  that  the 
country  had  little  more  wheat  than  it 
would  require  for  its  own  use  during 
the  remander  of  the  present  crop  year. 

Duluth  December  wheat,  which 
closed  Tuesday  at  82 'io  asked,  opened 
today  at  82  Uc  bid  and  at  noon  today 
was  at  82T4C  bid.  Duluth  May  wheat, 
which  closed  Tuesday  at  S6',iC,  opened 
today  at  86'i»c  bid  and  at  noon  today 
was  quoted  at  86';*  (fi'S6*iC  asked.  There 
were  higher  quotations  also  at  Chica- 
yo.    Minneapolis    and    Winnipeir. 

Most   of   the   European   markets  were 
at  ill  clos.Hl  on  account  of  the  Christmas 
season.       There     were       strong       wheat 
cables,    liuwever.    from  Paris. 
Flax    Market    Soft. 

Little  was  doing  in  flaxseed  on  the 
Dulutn  market  this  morning.  Crushers 
■were  still  very  indifferent  about  buy- 
ing, evidently  feeling  that  there  was 
plenty  of  flaxseed  on  hand,  and  pre- 
f-irring  to  let  "the  other  fellow"  carry 
it  as  long  as  it  was  not  needed  for  the 
immediate  demands  of  the  oil  trade. 
The  offers  were  fairly  liberal  today, 
being  frequently  In  'round  lots"  of 
2J.a0O  to  2a,000  bu.  At  noon  today  Du- 
luth December  flaxseed  was  "sc  off. 
January  a^c  off  and  May  l>sc  off.  The 
Minneapolis  cash  price  was  about  ^^c 
under  the  Duluth  I>ecember  figure. 
Winnipeg  December  flax  at  noon  today 
was  IV2C  off  at  $1.0 1  bid.  This  was 
1!*^  under  the  Duluth  Decemb€'r  price, 
giving  ample  margin  to  make  impor- 
tations of  flaxseed  from  Canada  Into 
the  United  States  for  American  con- 
sumption pay.  Buenos  Ayres  January 
seed  at  the  last  session  closed  un- 
changed at  $1.2."'-^.  London-Calcutta 
December   today   closc^d  at  $1.6 1 'i-

horses  and  we  seldom  see  a  traction 
engine  out  tliere.  But  I  do  not  think 
the  delay  In  the  plowing  will  be  seri- 
ous and  that  what  was  left  undone  in 
the  fall  will  be  finished  fairly  early 
in  the  spring, 

"The  farmers  out  there  have  been 
raising  mostly  wheat,  oats  and  bar- 
ley. I  do  not  think  they  will  sow  so 
much  barley  next  year,  as  the  price 
is  very  low  and  they  are  far  from  sat- 
isfied with  it.  Their  oats  they  have 
been  holding,  laj-gely  because  the 
kct  is  not  paying  them  what 
think  tliey  ought  to  have.  For 
reason,  I  do  not  think  thev  will 
so  much  oats  as  they  did  this 
Of  wheat  I  believe  they  will  sow  the 
usual  amount.  What  they  will  make 
their  principal  increase  with.  Judging 
by  the  way  they  talk,  is  corn.  Those 
farmers  are  raising  corn  quite  suc- 
cessfuU.v.  and  I  think  ne.xt  spring  they 
will  plant  a  great  acreage  of  it,  not  so 
much  to  supply  corn  to  the  market, 
as  to  use  it  in  the  raising  of  stock. 
Beef,  as  everybody  knows,  is  remark- 
ably high-priced,  and  the  farmers 
think  they  can  make  a  good  profit  by 
taising   cattle."

The  Chicago  Paint,  Oil  and  Drug  Re- 
view says: 

"A  fairly  strong  demand  Is  reported 
by  crushers  for  linseed  oil,  and  Hie 
market  seems  to  have  taken  on  more 
activity  than  recently  was  displayed 
Chicago  crushers  are  quoting  both  spot 
and  future  oil  at  40c  per  gallon  for 
raw  in  car  lots,  and  they  report  that 
it  Is  easier  to  obtain  this  figure  than 
it  was  last  week.  Whether  or  not  the 
renewed  activity  In  the  trade  Is  due 
to  a  growing  belief  that  the  price  for 
fla.xseed  has  about  reached  rock  bot- 
tom can  only  be  conjectured;  but  It  Is 
certain  that  among  the  crushers  a  more 
optimistic  tone  is  discernible  and  they 
are  generally  encouraged  to  feel  thct 
the  present  demand  is  the  forerunner 
of  a  continued  activity.  It  has  been 
estimated  that  about  75  per  cent  of  the 
regular  users  of  linseed  oil  already 
have  contracted  for  a  considerable  pro"- 
portion  of  the  oil  which  they  will  need 
In  the  future.  This  figure  Is  placed 
as  high  as  65  per  cent.  Of  the  remain- 
ing 2i,  per  cent  of  the  regular  buyers 
of  linseed  oil.  by  far  the  greater  per- 
centage are  individuals  or  concern"* 
who  do  not  make  a  practice  of  con- 
tracting ahead,  but  buy  for  Immediate 
or  nearby  use,  and  It  might  be  sur- 
prising to  some  to  learn  that  a  few  of 
these  buyers  are  very  large  users  of 
oil.  Inasmuch  as  practically  two- 
thirds  of  the  flaxseed  crop,  available 
for  crushing  purposes,  has  already 
been  marketed,  if  the  government  fig- 
ures on  production  are  taken  to  be  ap- 
proximately correct.  It  would  appear 
that  the  teady  absorption  of  the  lin- 
seed oil  supply  would  hardly  permit  of 
any  heavy  accumulation  of  oil  stocks 
It  was  reported  that  there  had  been  a 
number  of  Inquiries  in  the  Chicago 
territory  for  oil  from  buyers  who  or- 
dinarily do  not  solicit  offers  from  this 
field,  and  this  would  seem  to  Indlcare 
that  crushers  in  certain  territory  have 
not  been  able  to  supply  the  oil  as 
readily  as  had  generally  been  believed 
Just  now  there  Is  more  stability  or 
promise  of  stability.  In  the  linseed  oil 
market  than  there  has  been  for  a  long 
time    past. 

'Not  much  demand  Is  reported  for 
export  cake,  but  the  American  crushers 
are  not  worrying  over  this,  because 
there  is  an  excellent  call  for  meal  from 
the  domestic  consumers.  Crushers 
probably  are  more  wiling  to  sell  meal 
than  cake,  as  the  former  brings  tlip 
higher  price.  Minneapolis  is  quoting 
meal  active  at  $27.50  a  ton,  which 
would  be  about  $29.50,  Chicago  basis 
Kxport  cake  Is  held  around  $24,  Mli- 
neapolls,  or  $25.50,  Chicago.  What 
buying  there  Is  of  export  cake  Is  for 
nearby    use.     Europe    wants    the    cake. 


but  buyers  do  not  care  to  contract 
ahead  at  present  prices,  and  so  long  as 
domestic  meal  is  selling  so  well  pros- 
pects tor  lower  prices  for  cake  lor 
export  are  not  bright."

at  8  per  cent,  discouraged  speculation. 
Standard  stocks  barely  moved,  and 
many  ordinarily  active  issues  were  not 
traded  in  during  the  morning.  Among 
the  specialties.  Rubber  showed  marked 
weakness,  falling  more  than  3  points. 
Bonds  were  steady. 

Trading  In  the  local  traction  stocks 
was  the  feature  of  the  market  at  the 
opening  today.  Brooklyn  Transit  ad- 
vanced %  and  Third  Avenue  %.  There 
was  little  business  in  the  usual  leadern. 
The  tone  of  the  market  was  firm. 

Traders  showed  no  interest  In  the 
general  market,  and  the  only  sem- 
blance of  activity  was  in  the  traction 
group  and  several  minor  specialties. 

Brokers  stood  idly  about  the  differ- 
ent trading  posts  as  there  were  no 
orders  to  execute,  and  the  ticker  In 
consequence  was  silent  for  prolonged 
periods. 

Some  pressure  was  exerted  on  the 
market  when  money  reached  11  por 
cent.  The  tractions  lost  their  gainn, 
and  some  of  the  standard  stocks  sold 
a  half  point  under  Tuesday's  closu. 
The  market  closed  firm.  Early  sellers 
covered  their  shorts,  and  the  market 
rose  easily  to  the  best  figures.  Stand- 
ard Oil  stocks  on  the  curb  rose  I'rora 
25   to  100  points.

effect  on  the  movements  of  the  minmg 
shares.  Good  gains  wer^a  shown  by 
Amalgamated  and  North  Platte,  but 
Slutttuck  closed  considerably  weaker. 
The  curb  stocks  today  displayed  un- 
wonted activity.  Substantial  advances 
were  made  by  >^merlcan  Saginaw,  .San 
A.ntonio  and  Siierra,  but  there  were 
losses  In  Butte  Alex  Scott,  Calumet  &

*  •  "• 
Paine,  Webber  &  Co.  received  from 
Foster  at  Boston  the  following  closlnK 
copper  letter:  -Jn  spite  of  the  dullness 
today  tlie  copper.^  showed  underlying 
strength  and  made  spasmodic  ad- 
vances. Fiarly  ti  the  day  Granby  sold 
for  $69.75  and  late  in  the  se.ssion 
North  Butte  |33.  Royale  |32  and  Amal- 
gam;xted  waa  v-ry  strong  and  closed 
with  an  advanc*   of  l?i   points." 

«      •      • 

Gay  &  Sturgls  received  by  wire  from 
Boston  the  following  copper  gossip: 
"The  Boston  News  bureau  has  learne<l 
of  sales  of  coppt  r  to  net  the  seller  17  >4 
cent.s  a  pound.  This  is  >^c  per  pound 
under  the  maintained  price  of  17%c  so 
long  Quoted  by  the  American  Smelting 
&  KeJUning  company,  the  Amalgamated 
agency,   and   Pholps,   Dodge  &    Co. 

"We  also  hear  rumors  in  the  trade 
that  the  Miami  t^opper  company  is  sell- 
ing some  copper  for  April  delivery  at 
17c.  This  rumor,  however,  is  as  yet 
lacking   official   confirmation. 

"European  mfinufacturers  are  seek- 
ing rouad  lots  of  copper  at  17c,  but 
thus  far  have  m?t  with  little  success. 

"This  morning  there  were  no  foreign 
cables  asking  for  offers  of  American 
copper.  Domestic  consumer.s  have  ap- 
parently decided  for  the  time  being  to 
make  no  purchases  beyond  requirements 
immediately    ahead. 

•'An  important  producer  says:  'It  looks 
now  as  though  buying  of  copper  would 
settle  back  to  the  hand-to-mouth  basis 
again.  Too  much  uncertainty  exists 
over  what  the  coming  year  may  bring 
forth.  There  he.ve  been  no  large  sales 
of  copper  recently  Into  next  year  and 
I  hear  that  theire  is  still  some  unsold 
November  copper  on  hand.  I  am  still 
confident  as  to  the  situation,  however, 
and  doubt  if  any  copper  in  quantity 
can  be  secured  under  17?»c.'"

POLITIGAL  DEBATES 
IN  THE  TWIN  CITIES 


La  Follette,  Beveridge  and 

Kenyon  Will  Discuss 

Progressives. 

St.  Paul,  Mlnr.,  Dec.  26. — (Special  to 
The  Herald.) — A.  J.  Beveridge,  former 
."jenator,  will  answer  Senator  B.  M.  La 
Follette  In  his  e.ddress  before  the  Pro- 
gressives of  Michigan,  Minnesota,  Wis- 
consin, North  and  South  Dakota  at  a 
meeting  to  be  held  in  St.  Paul  Jan.  2  1. 
The  Wisconsin  senator  will  address  a 
meeting  of  Progrressive  Republicans  at 
the  Minneapolis  auditorium  next  Mon- 
day, when  it  is  expected  that  he  will 
score  the  Progiessive  party  and  urge 
all  Progressives  to  remain  in  the  Re- 
publican ranks. 

The  former  Irdiana  senator  will  at- 
tempt to  show  ill  his  address  here  that 
it  Is  impossible  to  carry  on  the  flght 
for  progressive  principles  within  the 
Republican   party. 

Senator  La  Follette  will  discuss  pro- 
gressive movemi'nts  Monday  night.  He 
will  ba  followed  Jan.  22  by  Senator 
Kenyon  of  Iowa  who,  it  is  anticipated, 
will  give  some  suggestions  upon  how 
the  Republican  party  can  be  made 
progressive   and   be   preser%-ed.

The  miningr  stocks  were  lifeless  on

changed  very  little.  The  changes  that

IN  THE  LAND  OF 

DOW  QUIXOTE. 

W.  D,  Howells  in  Harper's  Magazine: 
We  had  often  siid  during  our  stay  in 
Madrid  that  we  should  certainly  come 
for  a  day  at  Aranjuez:  and  here  we 
were,  passing  I1  with  a  five  minutes' 
stop.  We  were  leaving  a  railway  sta- 
tion, but  presently  it  was  as  If  we 
had  set  sail  on  £1  gray  sea,  with  a  Ion;? 
ground  swell  such  as  we  remembered 
from  Old  Castile.  These  Innumerable 
pastures  and  wheat  fields  were  In 
New  Oastlle.  and  before  long  more  dis- 
tinctively they  v.-ere  in  La  Mancha,  tiie 
country  dear  to  fame  as  the  home  of 
Don  Quixote.  I  must  own  at  once  it 
does  not  look  it,  or  at  least  look  like 
the  country  I  had  read  out  of  his  his- 
tory in  my  boyhood.  For  the  matter 
of  that,  no  country  ever  looks  like 
the  country  one  reads  out  of  a  book, 
however  really  It  may  be  that  country. 
The  trouble  probably  is  that  one  car- 
ries out  of  one's  reading  an  Image 
which  one  has  'jarrled  Into  it.  When 
I  read  'Don  Qui.xote."  and  read  and 
read  it  again,  I  put  La  Mancha  first 
into  the  map  C'f  Southern  Ohio  and 
Chen  Into  that,  after  an  interval  of 
seven  or  eight  y^ira,  of  Northern  Ohio, 
and  the  scenes  ]  arranged  for  his  ad- 
ventures were  landscapes  composed 
from  those  aboui  me  In  my  earlier  ind 
later  boyhood.  There  was  then  al- 
ways something  soft  and  mild  In  the 
Don  Quixote  country,  with  a  blue  river 
and  gentle  uplaiids,  and  woods  where 
one  could  rest  in  the  shade  and  hide 
oneself  if  one  wished,  after  easily  res- 
cuing the  oppressed.  Now,  instead,  a 
treeless  plain  ur  rolled  Itself  from  sky 
to  sky,  naked,  dull,  empty;  and  If  some 
azure  tops  dimm?d  the  clear  line  of  th- 
western  horizon,  how  could  I  have  got 
them  into  my  narly  picture  when  I 
had  never  yet  st-en  a  mountain  in  mv 
life? 

I  could  not  put  the  knight  and  his 
s<iulre  on  those  naked  levels  where 
they  would  not  have  got  a  mile  from 
home  without  discovery  and  arrest.  I 
tried  to  think  of  them  jogging  alon?, 
in  talk  of  the  idventures  which  the 
knieht  hoped  for:   but  T  could  not   irako

it  work.  I  could  have  done  better  be- 
fore we  got  so  far  from  Aranjuez; 
there  wetn  gardens  and  orchards  and 
a  very  suitable  rlvtr  there,  and  those 
elm  trees  overhanging  it;  but  tlie  pros- 
pect in  La  Mancha  had  only  here  and 
tiiere  a  white-walled  farmhouse  to 
Vary  Its  lonely  simplicity,  its  dreary 
fertility,  and  1  could  do  nothlntj  Vrith 
the  strips  and  patches  of  vinevard.  It 
was  all  strangely  African,  strangely 
^ie*^»can.  not  at  all  American,  not 
Ohioan  enough  to  b«-  anything  like  t)i« 
real  La  Mancha  of  my  invention.  To 
be  sure,  the  doors  and  windows  of  the 
nearer  houses  were  visiblv  netted 
against  mosquitoes,  and  that  was 
something;  but  even  that  did  not  begin 
to  be  noticeable  till  we  were  draw- 
ing near  the  Sitjrra  .Morena.  Then,  so 
l"f'S  before  we  reached  the  mighty 
chain  of  raounti.in3  which  Nature  has 
stretched  between  the  gravity  of  New 
Castile  and  the  gayety  of  Andalusia, 
as  If  they  could  not  bear  immediate 
'ontact,  I  experienced  a  moment  of 
perfect  reconciliation  to  the  landscape 
as  really  wearing  the  face  of  that  La 
Mancha  familiar  to  my  boyish  vision, 
l.ate  in  the  forenoon,  but  early  enough 
to  save  the  face  of  La  -Mancha. 
tliere  appeared  certain  unquestionable 
shapes  in  the  nearer  and  further  dis- 
tance which  I  joyou.sly  knew  for  those 
windmills  which  Don  Quixote  had 
known  for  giants  and  spurred  at 
lance  in  rtst.  They  were  waving  their 
vans  in  what  he  had  found  insolent  de- 
fiance, but  which  seemed  to  us  glad 
welcome,  as  of  windmills  waiting,  that 
long  time,  for  a  reader  of  Cervantes 
who  could  enter  into  their  feelings  and 
into  the  friendly  companionship  they 
were   offering.

Before  District  Court. 

St.  Paul.  Minn.,  Dec.  26.  —  (.Special  to 
The  Herald.) — Samuel  Kaufman  and 
Ruth  Ellis,  arrested  in  Chicago  last 
week  on  a  charge  of  stealing  more 
than  $3,000  worth  of  jewelry  from  the 
Kaufman  Jewelry  companv,  of  which 
the  young  man's  father,  Mever  Kauf- 
man, i.s  secretary  and  treasurer,  plead- 
ed guilty  to  grand  larceny  in  police 
court   today. 

The  judge  could  not  accept  the  plea, 
as  the  charge  is  beyond  the  Jurisdiction 
of  his  court,  and  after  entering  "not 
guilty"  pleas,  turned  the  tw«  over  to 
Judge    Orr    of    the    district   court. 

Meyer  Kaufman  was  in  conference 
with  Judge  Orr  after  the  police  court 
hearing.  He  signed  the  complaint.  It 
Is  expected  the  young  man  and  woman 
will  be  given  suspended  sentences.  The 
theft  of  forty  watch  fobs  from  the 
company,  valued  at  $80  each,  is  charged.

The  Aitkin  roprei^entative  then  hit

of    the    subject    recently.

The    Senate    Comhine. 

The  state  machine  is  attempting  to 
play  on  the  feelings  of  progressive 
senators  who  do  not  look  kindly  on 
the  appointment  of  Grove  E.  Wilson 
as  private  secretary  to  Lieutenant 
Governor  Burnciulst.  It  is  said  that 
some  senators  have  been  induced  to 
join  the  senate  combine  on  the  plea 
that  Wilsons  appointment  does  not 
show  a  true  progressive  spirit  on 
Burnquiefs  part,  as  Wilson  has  not 
been  consistently  progressive.  That 
anvbody  can  be  induced  to  combine 
against  Burnquist  on  that  ground  is 
open  to  doubt.  The  appointment  of  a 
private  secretary  Isn't  usually  the  test 
of  a  man's  political  principles. 

The  combine  continues  to  claim  a 
sufficient  number  of  votes  to  take  the 
power  of  committee  appointments  out 
of  the  hands  of  the  lieutenant  gover- 
nor. Lieutenant  Governor  Burnquist 
claims  that  he  has  no  fear  of  the  re- 
sult of  the  contest.  Mr.  Burnquist's 
attitude  will  very  likely  be  justified 
when  the  senators  involved  in  the 
combine  begin  to  hear  from  their  con- 
stituents. Election  is  only  two  years 
away  now  and  the  senators  will  needs 
be  careful  how  they  handle  their  con- 
stituents. The  country  papers  haven't 
had  time  to  get  into  chorus  on  the 
subject  but  when  they  do  some  of  the 
senators  who  have  been  misled  by 
the  persuasive  eloquence  of  Sullivan, 
Duxbury,  et  al.  will  look  longingly 
over  the  back  track. 

The  St.  Paul  Dispatch  sees  fit  to 
take  a  hack  at  the  combine  and  sums 
up  the  grounds  of  opposition  in  the 
following  editorial:

George  T.  Simpson  agreed  that  It  could 
be  done.  They  drafted  the  bill  and  ap- 
peared with  Mr.  Warner  before  the 
committee   to   which   it   was  referred. 

The  bill  passed  the  house,  carrying 
an  annual  appropriation  of  $100,000. 
but  It  was  amended  In  the  senate  by 
having    the    appropriation    cut    to    $50,- 

000  It  was  returned  to  the  house  on 
the  last  night  of  the  session,  shortly 
before  adjournment.  The  house  con- 
curred and  repassed  the  hill.  The  law 
makes  an  annual  continuing  appropria- 
tion of  $50,000  and  limits  the  amount 
any  school  may  receive  to  $250.  Mr. 
Warner  was  assisted  In  the  fight  for 
the  bill  in  the  house  mainly  by  R.  C 
Uunn   and   D.    P.   O'Neill. 

Mr.  Warner  has  been  working  for 
the  last  six  weeks  with  the  attor- 
ney general's  office  in  endeavoring  to 
figure  out  some  way  In  which  the  leg- 
islat'.irc  may  legally  Impose  a  tax  upon 
unsold  state  lands  for  road  and  bridge 
purposes.

WHY  DON'T  YOU  TAKE  BETTER 
CARE  OF   YOUR   HAIR  I 

Don't  let  it  turn  grey.  Don't  let  the 
Dandruff  get  a  foothold  and  start  the  hair 
falling  out. 
I  It's  not  natural  that  young  women  should 
have  thin  grey  hair  that  they  cannot  dress 
becomingly. 

It  should  always  be  natural-colored-lux- 
uriant—full of  life  and  radiance— free  from 
ugly  grey  hairs  and  annoying  Dandruff. 

Natur*  intended  that   a   woman's  hair 
■hould  be  one  of  her  chief  attractions. 
Why  not  help  her  to  keep  it  so  ?

ators  who  have  planned  a  campaign 
to  organize  the  senate  committees 
and  deprive  the  lieutenant  governor 
of  the  exercise  of  a  function  con- 
firmed by  long  usage,  they  should 
be  very  sure  of  their  ground  before 
they  attempt  to  put  their  plans  into 
operation.  The  assumption  of  great 
and  rare  civic  virtue  is  a  risky  ex- 
periment. If  the  people  find  it  a 
mere  mask  to  conceal  sinister  pur- 
poses they  will  not  be  blamed  If 
they  strip  it  off  and  expose  what- 
ever may  be  behind  it. 

If   it   shall   appear,   or   if   It   can   be 
made    to    appear,    that    the    righteous 
and  virtuous  proposition  "to  have  the 
senate       organize        Itself"        merely 
cloaks   a   combination   of   reactionary 
Republicans  and   over-willing  Demo- 
crats   to    defeat    progressive    legisla- 
tion,  it  will   be  a   bold   state  senator 
who    will    be    willing   to    see   himself 
enrolled   as  a  party   to  the   program. 
It  may  be  urged  there  Is  a  prece- 
dent   for    such    proceeding.      And    so 
there   Is.     In   1891    there   gathered   in 
the    legislative     halls    of     Minnesota 
that    famous    collection    of    PopullHts 
who    dominated    both    branches    and 
who    fastened    upon    the    senate   pre- 
cisely such  a  program  as  is  now  In 
contemplation.      The    committee    ap- 
pointments w«re  wrested  from  Lieu- 
tenant Governor  Ives  and   the  senate 
dictated    the    personnel      of    its    own 
committees. 

If  the  senators  who  are  promoting 
this    coup    are    willing    to    return    to 
the  conditions  and  traditions  of  that 
session    of    1891.    with    all    of    its    re- 
sults   and    none   of   its   excuses,    they 
should    be    prepared      to    accept      the 
consequences.     But  they   should  hes- 
itate  before   entering   upon    this   un- 
dertaking    without     better     reasons 
than    have    been    disclosed.      If    they 
are  successful,  which  now  seems  im- 
probable,  and   It  should  develop  that 
'    the    motive    was    unworthy    and    the 
purpose   to   thwart   desirable   legisla- 
tion, as  now  is  strongly  suspected— 
each    member    is    hanging    about    his 
neck    a   political    millstone    ready   tor 
the  leap   into  oblivion. 
The    Albert   Lea   Tribune,    which   up- 
holds   the    good    right    arm    of    Former 
Speaker    H.    H.    Dunn,    cannot    go    tne

are  not  going  to  allow  the  people

the  conclusion  of  his  term  of  office,

to  Fred  J.  Smith,  an  Ohio  lawyer,  w^ho 
was  a  visitor  at  the  Holland  hotel  to- 
day. 

Mr.  Smith  said  the  people  through- 
out that  state  were  taking  a  tremen- 
dous amount  of  Interest  In  municipal 
reforms.  Manv  of  the  cities  were  send- 
ing for  experts  to  gain  a  little  knowl- 
edge on  the  commission  plan.  Mayor 
Baker  of  Cleveland  had  appointed  a 
body  of  fifteen  representative  business 
men  of  that  city  to  draw  up  a  charter. 
Mayor  Brand  Whitlock  of  Toledo  had 
just  returned  from  a  trip  to  Europe, 
where  he  studied  the  municipal  gov- 
ernment  of  every  important  city  on  the 
continent,  that  he  might  use  the  knowl- 
edge thus  acquired  In  the  framing  of 
Toledo's    new    charter. 

CHRISTMAS  IM 

THE  HOSPITAL 

Patients    Received    Their 

Gifts  From  Tree  or 

Santa  Claus. 

Duluth  hospitals  had  their  Christmas 
trees  and  their  Santa  Clauses  for  the 
hundreds  of  patients  confined  within 
their  walls.  There  was  a  large  tree  at 
St.  Mary's;  one  for  the  adults  and  one 
for  the  children  at  St.  Luke's;  another 
at  the  contagious  hospital;  one  at  the 
tubercular  pavilion  and  one  at  other 
institutions.  All  of  them  were  prettily 
decorated.  Where  the  patients  were 
able  they  came  to  the  tree  but  in  the 
other  cases  the  nurses  brought  them 
such  gifts  and  remembrances  as  Santa 
Claus  left  for  theni^ 

CHRISTMAS  AT 

BOYS'  DEPARTMENT 

The  boys'  department  of  the  Y.  M. 
C.  A.  had  a  lively  Christmas  celebra- 
tion yesterday  with  something  doing 
all  day  long.  At  the  main  building, 
the  day  was  spent  without  special  ob- 
servance but  at  the  boys'  building, 
Sixth  avenue  east  and  Third  street,  a 
program   was    given. 

Between  11  o'clock  in  the  morning 
and  1  o'clock  in  the  afternoon,  the  boys 
engaged  themselves  in  the  gymnasium, 
after  which  they  went  home  to  their 
dinners.  At  4:30  o'clock  more  games 
were  played  in  the  gym  and  in  the 
club   rooms.  .  ,   . 

In  the  evening,  a  moving  picture  en- 
tertalnment  was  the  order  of  exer- 
cises. Five  up-to-date  reels  were  pro- 
jected. The  pictures  were  varied  as  to 
comedy  drama  and  travel.

SPANISH  SWINDLER 

IS  STILL  AT  WORK. 

A  letter  that  is  evidently  an  attempt 
to  work  the  old  "Spanish  prisoner" 
swindle  has  been  received  by  J.  A. 
Knowlton  of  Duluth.  It  is  signed  by 
one  "Granovitch,"  who  represents  that 
he  is  a  prisoTier  languishing  in  a  Span- 
ish jail,  but  is  the  owner  of  a  fortune 
of     $480,000,     one-third     of     which     he 


iured  employes  draw  a  less  remuner- 
ation In  proportion  to  their  disability. 
The  law  expressly  Includes  the  state 
Itself,  and  all  municipal,  county  and 
township  governments.  The  city  of- 
ficials believe  the  city  will  save  money 
by  insuring,  owing  to  the  many  ac- 
cidents for  which  it  will  be  held  liable. 

Minnesota  has  no  worklngmen's 
compensation  law  under  which  Duluth 
could  Insure,  but  the  city  protects  It- 
self with  liability  insurance  in  the 
departments  where  considerable  labor 
Is  employed,  principally  the  public 
works  and  water  and  light  depart- 
I  mentB. 


promises  to  the  dear  American  friend 
who  will  advance  the  money  to  pay 
for  the  prisoner's  trial  and  raise  the 
seizure  of  the  portmanteaus,  which 
contain  the  secret  to  his  fortune.  It 
is  principally  for  the  sake  of  a  "darl- 
ing daughter'  that  the  prisoner  is  will- 
ing to  sacrifice  a  third  of  his  fortune 
to  regain  his  liberty.  The  letter  re- 
ouests  an  immediate  cable  to  "Don  Gar- 
dendla.   Delicias   22,   Madrid,    Spain." 

A  few  months  ago  the  Madrid  police, 
made  a  great  haul  at  the  headquarters 
of  the  "Spanish  prisoner"  swindlers  iiv 
that  city.

see  if  the  governor  was  physically  fit 
to  make  the  trip,  and  pronounced  him 
"about  himself  again."  He  said  he  did 
not  think  It  particularly  risky  for  Mr. 
Wilson  to  go,  but  advised  him  to  take 
good  care  of  himself.

Short  This  Year. 


Washington,      Dec.      27.— The   humble 

but   nutritious   banana,    in    the    opinion 

of    American    <"onsul    Julius    D.    Droher 

at     Port    Antonio,     Jamaica,     must     be 

reckoned   with  a.s  a  real  factor  toward 

reducing  the  "high  cost  of  living;"  but 

in    the    same    breath    he   reported    today 

to  the   bureau  of  foreign  and  domestic 

commerce    that    the    banana    crop    from 

Jamaica    alone     this       year       would     be 

1,000,000    bunches      short.       The    ITnited 

States    consumed    five    times    as    much 

of   the   fruit   as  any   other   single  coun- 

Drouth   and   hurricanes  have   worked

UNCLE  SAM  URGlS 
SUGAR  BEET  CULTURE 

Says  Nation  Should  Fur- 
nish Each  Inhabitant  83 
Pounds  a  Year. 

Washington,  Dec.  27 — With  the  declar- 
ation that  the  United  States  should 
raise  all  of  its  own  sugar,  the  depart- 
ment of  agriculture  today  issued  an 
appeal  to  the  American  farmer  to  go 
in  for  the  cultivation  of  the  sugar 
beet.  Thore  are  2,000,000  short  tons 
of  beets  now  imported  annuallv,  savs 
the  department,  which  should  be  raised 
at  home. 

"The  average  American  consumes 
eighty-three  pounds  of  sugar  each 
vear,"  says  the  report,  "and  only  ten 
pounds  of  that  is  produced  in  this 
country.  The  farmer  of  this  countrv 
bhculu  keep   that   money  at   home." 

USE  TOYBALLOONS  IN 
PLACE  OF  WIRELESS 

Mexican    Rebels  Adopt  a 
Simple  System  of  Com- 
munication. 

El  Paso,  Tex.,  Dec.  27.— Toy  balloons 
are  being  employed  by  the  rebels  In 
Northern  Mexico  as  a  system  of  "wire- 
less" to  give  information  regarding  the 
movement  of  federal  soldiers.  Every 
time  a  troop  train  departs  from  Chi- 
huahua City,  a  toy  balloon  floats  up 
from  the  center  of  the  state  capital 
A  relay  of  the  simple  signals  tells  the 
rebels    troops   are    coming. 

Destruction  of  railways  has  made 
the  telegraph  uncertain,  and  as  the 
federals  do  not  employ  wireless  tele- 
graph, the  rebel  advices  are  in  many 
instances  ahead  of  the  federal  Infor- 
mation. 


ORDERS  COPPER  RATE 
TO  DETROIT  LOWERED 

TheCommerce  Commission 

Says  Differential  With 

East  is  Too  Low. 

Washington,  Dec.  27. — The  inter- 
state commerce  commission  held  today 
that  the  freight  rates  on  refined  copper 
from  the  Upper  Peninsula  of  Michigan 
to  Detroit  were  unduly  discriminatory 
as  compared  with  the  rates  from  the 
same  point  of  origin  to  New  York 
city 

At  presfnt  the  rate  to  New  York 
city  is  only  3  cents  a  hundred  pounds 
higher  than  to  Detroit.  The  commis- 
sion ordered  that  the  differential  In 
favor  of  Detroit  should  be  at  least 
at  10  cents.  All  of  the  carriers  Inter- 
eftod  were  ordered  to  reaiiust  their 
rates  on  that  basis.

Posse 
Grove,  La. 


Cak 


Oak  Grove,  La.,  Dec.  27. — The  career 
Of  Fink  Maddo.x,  a  reputed  "bad  man,  " 
as  "boss  of  the  town,"  was  brougiit 
to  a  sudden  end  by  a  posse  late  yes- 
terday after  Maddox  had  killed  a  dep- 
uty and  terrorized  Oak  Grove  by  his 
reckless  shooting. 

Maddox  had  vowed  to  celebrate  the 
Yuletide  by  "running"  the  towh.  When 
he  began  to  shoot,  the  majority  of  the 
inhabitants  took  to  cover.  Deputy 
Marshal  L.  E.  Ray  attempted  to  ar- 
rest Maddox,  but  was  mortally  stabbed 
Maddox  then  took  a  horse  and  rode 
off,  but  he  encountered  a  posse  and 
In  the  battle  that  followed  he  was 
killed. 


New  York,  Dec.  27. — Apples,  fresh 
eggs  and  country  butter  direct  from 
the  farm  to  the  housewife  by  parcel 
post,  to  reach  500,000  homes  In  New 
York  and  Its  environs — this  is  the 
newest  plan,  announced  today,  of  Mrs. 
Julian  Heath,  president  of  the  Na- 
tional Housewives'  league.  Mrs.  Heath 
says  her  plan  will  become  operative, 
to  some  extent,  Jan.  1,  when  the  malls 
are  opened  to  parcel  post  packages. 

Mrs.  Heath's  plan  to  eliminate  the 
middlemen  Involved  the  creation  of  a 
registry  committee.  Already  this  com- 
mittee has  begun  its  preliminary  work 
of  listing  all  farmers  within  the  fifty- 
mile  zone.  The  rolls  will  be  open  to 
all  housekeepers  who  wish  to  avail 
themselves  of  an  opportunity  to  obtain 
fresh  produce  at  small  cost.  The 
league  will  work  In  harmony  with  the 
state  grange. 

The  resultant  economy.  Mrs.  Heath 
believes,  will  be  dual,  inasmuch  as  the 
farmers  will  receive  more  for  their 
produce  than  they  now  receive  from 
dealers,  while  the  consumers  will  get 
fresh  food  at  lower  prices  than  those 
now  charged.  The  plan  will  be  ex- 
tended, Mrs.  Heath  said,  to  Include 
vegetables  In   season. 

Similar  registry  bureaus  will  be 
opened  In  the  principal  cities  of  the 
country,  Mrs.  Heath  declared.

Suffragettes  May  Get  to 

Albany  Ahead  of 

Schedule. 

Stockport,  N,  Y.,  Dec.  27.— In  a  cold 
steady  downpour  of  rain,  "General" 
Hosalie  Jones  early  today  mustered 
together  her  small  army  of  suffra- 
gettes and  held  a  short  conference  on 
the  advisability  of  marching  into  Al- 
bany on  Saturday,  instead  of  on  Tues- 
day  next,    as    was    originally    intended 

This  new  plan  would  necessitate  two 
forced  marches.  "Surgeon  General" 
Dock's  strength,  however,  was  so 
overtaxed  by  the  eightoen-mile  walk 
in  <he  blizzard  on  Christmas  eve  that 
it  i.?  luii'bful  whetlier  she  will  be 
able  to  walk  more  than  five  or  six 
miles  a  day  after  this.  Accordingly 
"General"  Jones  decided  to  start  for 
Valatle  today,  as  scheduled,  and  after 
arriving  there  to  determine  wheth.r 
to  push  on  to  Schodack  Center  for  to- 
night's stop.  , 

Albany  sympathizers  will  send  a 
brass  band  to  meet  the  pilgrims  four 
miles  outside  of  the  city  and  escort 
them  In.  An  Albany  merchant  has  of- 
fered his  store  to  the  pilgrims  to  be 
used  as  headquarters  during  their 
stay.

Migration  Haa  Deffun. 

Washington,  Deo.  27. — The  exodus 
of  the  Turks  from  Europe  virtually 
has  begun,  according  to  a  letter  re- 
ceived by  the  American  Red  Cross.  The 
letter  savs  that  the  Red  Cross  already 
has  aided  mure  than  100,000  Turkish 
refugees  to  leave  Europe  and  to  take 
up  agriculture  in  Asia  Minor.  Tho 
families  are  agriculturists  and  repre- 
sent, for  the  most  part,  the  primitive 
portion    of    the    Turkish    population. 

•The  situation  is  very  interesting," 
sav.s  the  Ked  Cross  correspondent, 
speaking  of  the  farmers"  desertion  of 
their  homes  in  Europe,  "'for  loaded  in- 
to their  bullock  carts  are  their  families 
and  the  crude  Implements  of  their

ment.

Staunton   Struns   With   LIshtM. 

Staunton,  Va.,  Dec.  27. — A  great  arch 
with  tho  words  "Welcome  Home"  out- 
lined in  incandescent  bulbs,  forms  the 
gateway  through  which  tho  people  of 
Staunt»)n  will  welcome  home  tonight 
their  distinguished  native  son.  Presi- 
dent-elect Woodrow  Wilson.  Prepara- 
tions under  way  for  nearly  two  weeka 
to  make  tho  home-coming  a  great  Vir- 
ginia occasion  were  completed  early 
today. 

The  parade  to  be  reviewed  by  tho 
president-elect  tomorrow  will  be  one 
of  the  features  of  the  festival.  The 
streets  have  been  strung  with  incan- 
descent bulbs  and  gas  and  arc  lamps; 
flags  and  bunting  are  in  evidence  on 
business    blocks   and   private    houses. 

Much  interest  centers  in  the  frame 
house  that  waa  Governor  Wilson's 
birthplace  and  his  residence  during 
boyhood.  Plans  that  had  been  made 
for  an  "old  Virginia  dinner"  have 
been  abandoned.  Efforts  will  be  mado 
to  protect  Governor  Wilson  as  fully 
as  possible  from  exposure  or  Inclem- 
ent weather  that  might  endanger  his 
health. 


Ovation   at   WashlnstoB. 

Washington,  Dec.  27.— Elaborate 
preparations  have  been  made  here  and 
in  adjacent  Virginia  for  tho  reception 
of  I'resident-elect  Wilson  when  he  ar- 
rives late  today  on  his  way  to  his 
birthplace  in  Staunton,  Va.,  to  cele- 
brate his  birthday  anniversary.  Bon- 
fires win  light  tho  train's  flying  jour- 
ney from  the  Virginia  end  of  the  bridge 
spanning  the  Potomac  river  to  Staun- 
ton. 

Governor  Wilson  will  bo  accorded 
an  ovation  here.  Democratic  members 
of  congress  now  In  the  capital  are  to 
be  at  the  railroad  station  when  the 
train  arrives. 

Nearly  a  score  of  police  and  detec- 
tives left  today  for  the  Virginia  town 
to  lend  their  aid  in  caring  for  the 
crowds  that  will  be  attracted  by  the 
affair.  According  to  all  reports,  no 
trouble  Is  expected.

of   the   Federal   building   to   keep   back 
the   crowds. 

Thousands  of  people  tried  in  vain  to 
witness  the  closing  scenes  of  what  the 
government  contends  is  the  most  im- 
portant trial,  Involving  labor  union  of- 
ttclals,  ever  held  in  a  Federal  court, 
Judge  Anderson's  courtroom  i.s  compar- 
atively small,  being  occupied  almost  to 
its  capacity  merely  by  the  forty  de- 
fendants, members  of  their  families, 
attorneys  and  newspaper  correspond- 
ents. The  room  occupied  by  the  jurors 
day  and  night  for  three  months  is 
reached  by  a  special  stairway  not  ac- 
cessible  to   the    public. 

Mc.Mauigral  In  BuUdlns. 
On  the  same  floor  with  the  jurors 
are  Ortle  E.  McManigal  and  Edward 
Clark,  confessed  dynamiters.  McManl- 
gal.  upon  whose  confession  the  gov- 
ernment laid  the  basis  of  its  charges 
that  labor  union  officials  violated  the 
Federal  laws  prohibiting  the  transpor- 
tation  of  explo.slves  on  i)assenger 
trains,  Is  to  be  returned  to  the  cus- 
tody of  Los  Angeles  county.  Call.,  as 
soon  as  the  trial  ends  here.  His  rec- 
reation since  his  being  brought  here 
as  a  "loan,"  from  Los  Angeles  county, 
has  been  exercise  on  the  roof  of  the 
building  and  carving  picture  frames 
out  of  cigar  boxe.s. 

Clark,  who  confessed  to  blowing  up 
a  bridge  at  Dayton,  Ohio,  is  to  be  sen- 
tenced after  the  verdicts  as  to  the 
other   defendants   are   returned. 

Indications  were  at  9: 15  a.  m.  that 
the  jury  was  not  ready  to  report.  All 
the  defendants  had  been  assembled  in 
court,  but  Judge  Anderson  remained  in 
his  chambers,  awaiting  word  from  the 
jury  room.

son adjourned  court  until  2:30  o'clock 
this  afternoon.

UNITED    STATES    JUDGE    A.    B. 
ANDERSON. 


Judge    Anderson    in    his     instructions 

said:  ^._     O.X 

"It  waa  not  unlawful  for  the  Struc- 
tural Iron  Workers  to  organize  the 
union  to  which  tl^ey  belong.  It  Is  not 
unlawful  for  the  defendants  to  be 
members  of  that  or  any  other  labor 
organization.  Men  have  the  rights  to 
use  their  combined  power  through  such 
organizations  to  advance  their  inter- 
ests In  any  lawful  way;,  but  they  have 
no  right  to  use  thia  power  in  the  viola- 
tion of  the  law.  .  ,   ,  . 

"Organized  labor  Is  not  on  trial  here, 
nor  is  the  right  of  labor  to  organize 
at  Issue;  but  members  of  labor  or- 
ganizations owe  the  same  obedience  to 
the  law  and  are  liable  to  the  same 
punishment  for  its  violations  as  per- 
sons who  are  not^  members  of  such  or- 
ganizations. 

'The  defendants  are  not  on  trial  for 
causing  the  various  explosions  and  the 
consequent  loss  of  life  and  property 
throughout  the  United  States,  shown 
by  the  evidence.  They  are  on  trial  for 
the  offenses  charged  by  the  indict- 
ment. Evidence  of  these  explosions, 
together  with  the  facts  and  circum- 
stances surrounding  them,  were  per- 
mitted to  go  in  evidence  before  you, 
because  they  tend  to  show  the  com- 
munity of  purpose,  the  concert  of  mind 
and  action,  which  Is  an  essential  In- 
gredient of  the  offenses  charged,  and 
they  should  be  considered  by  you  up- 
on that  issue  alone.

"The     evidence    In     this    case     shows 
that  in  August.,  1»05.  there  was  a  con- 
troversy   between    !K'«^      International

In  the  accomplishment  of  such  destruc- 
tion, the  unlawful  transportation  of 
dvnamlte  and  nltro-glycerln  upon  the 
vehicles  of  common  carriers  engaged 
at  the  time  in  the  transportation  of 
passengers,  from  a  place  In  one  state 
to  a  place  or  places  in  another  state 
or  other  states  of  the  United  States; 
and  if  you  further  find  that  such  de- 
struction of  property  was  accomplished 
by  explosions  of  dynamite  and  nitro- 
glycerin in  various  places  throughout 
the  United  States  and  that  the  dyna- 
n  ite  and  nitro-glycerin  with  which 
such  explosions  were  produced  were 
aa  a  matter  of  fact  transported  from 
state  to  state  In  suitcases  and  carry- 
ing cases  upon  the  vehicles  of  common 
carriers,  engaged  at  the  time  In  the 
carrying  of  passengers,  as  averred, 
then  you  will  be  authorized  to  find 
that  a  conspiracy  was  formed  to  trans- 
port dynamite  and  nltro-glycerin  un- 
lawfully, as  charged  In  the  indict- 
ment." 

Decide  Facts  Only. 
.Tudge  Anderson  concluded: 
"Carefully  weigh  all  the  evidence 
in  the  case,  and  from  It,  under  the 
rules  of  law  which  I  have  given  you, 
determine  the  guilt  or  Innocence  of 
the  defendants.  With  you  and  not 
•with  the  court  rests  the  responsibility 
of  finding  and  determining  the  facts. 
The  views  of  the  court  on  questions  of 
facts  are  not  controlling  upon  you. 
You  have  nothing  to  do  with  the  case 
except  to  determine  the  single  question 
of  the  guilt  or  innocence  of  the  de- 
fendants. If  you  should  return  a  ver- 
dict of  guilty,  the  measure  of  punish- 
ment to  be  Inflicted  upon  the  defend- 
ants is  committed  to  the  court." 

The  testimony  of  Burns  about  Tveit- 
moe was  referred  to  by  the  court.  It 
was  that  Burns  had  numerous  con- 
versations with  Hockin  shortly  after 
the  I-os  Angeles  Times  explosion  and 
that  Burns  related  to  Hockin  how  he 
expected  Tveitmoe  would  blow  him  up, 
because  Burns  had  obtained  a  photo- 
graph of  Tveitmoe  In  the  garb  of  a 
Ktinnesota  penitentiary  prisoner  and 
had  published  it  In  a  San  Francisco 
newspaper.

(Continued   from   pagp   1.) 


the    death    of    one    of   his    countrymen, 
and  name  the  administrator.     The  case 


was  one  wherelr,  Stanlslaw  Lis,  an 
Austrian,  died  in  Minneapolis  Oct.  14, 
1911,  leaving  a  wife  and  seven  chil- 
dren. Lis  had  su  ts  against  the  Great 
Northern  and  Great  A/V'estern  pending. 
The  undertaker  who  cared  for  his  body 
had  G.  A.  Westphal,  an  attorney,  ap- 
pointed administrator,  but  Hugo  Sil- 
vestrl,  Austro-H  mgarlan  consul  at 
Chicago,  intervened  and  asked  that 
Moritz  Helm  be  ippolnted.  The  pro- 
bate court  of  Hennepin  county  refused 
the  request  and  the  consul  appealed. 
The  supreme  court  reversed  the  ruling 
on  the  probate  <;ourt  and  Attorney 
Helm  will  take  cliarge. 

Lost  ComiMiit.r  Cbhc  Afflrmied. 

Another  case  was  that  of  Frank 
Small,  respondent,  vs.  Ab  Smitli  and

luth Log  company,  appellant. 

Action  to  recove  r  for  labor  and  serv- 
ices In  cutting  and  banking  logs,  ren- 
dered to  a  logging  contractor,  and  to 
enforce  a  lien  therefor  on  certain  of 
the  logs  purchasi'd  by  the  defendant 
company.     Held: 

First — It  Is  not  essential  to  the  va- 
lidity of  a  lien  statement  required  by

fied by  the  oath  of  some  person  hav- 
ing personal  knowledge  of  the  facts 
therein  stated.  ICrengel  vs.  Haslam, 
lis  Minn..   508,   followed. 

Second— The  findings  of  the  trial 
court  referred  to  in  the  opinion  show 
a  substantial  compliance  with  the  stat- 
ute as  to  setting:  forth  the  dates  of 
beginning  and  ending  the  labor. 

Third — A  time  check  Issued  by  a  con- 
tractor or  his  foreman  to  a  laborer, 
containing  a  memorandum  of  the  time 
of  labor  and  what,  he  is  entitled  to  re- 
ceive therefor.  Is  the  evidence  and 
symbol  of  his  claim  for  such  labor. 
The  Indorsement  In  blank  of  such  a 
check  and  a  delivery  thereof  Is  an  as- 
signment In  writing  of  the  claims  for

heUs  of  a  bia\e,  who,  like  others  of 
his    kititl.   marrit'd    three   wives? 

This  Is  the  questit)!!  which  has  been 
put  up  lo  .Iu(1k<"  I'lbell  of  the  district 
lourt  ft  r  a  ti.ci.-^ioii.  His  opinion  in

Pavid  W.  l-a  Framboise,  a  Shakopee 
haltbuol.  is  entitled  to  heirship  rigtits

Krani.  d  bv  the  government  to  the 
heirs  .'f  AUxis  I>a  Framboise  over  the 
claims  ..f  H.  Xobl«-  I>ay  and  Daniel  -Ma- 
har.  who  purcTiased  the  land  for  >100 
from  a  squaw  on  the  Sisseton  reserva- 
tion, tiie  second  of  Alexis  L.a  Fram- 
bolsi's   three  wives. 

The  testimony  in  t!ie  case  has  been 
of  a  most  interesting  nature  owing  to 
the  fact  that  practically  all  of  .he 
■witnesses  are  Indians  who  participated 
In  the  outbreak  of  1862,  a  famous  event 
in  Minnesotas  early  hl-^tory.  Tribal 
customs  of  the  Sioux  are  also  told 
Hnu  will  probably  have  a  good  deal  to 
do  with   the  deiiding   of  the  case. 

Alexis  1^  Framboise,  the  evidence 
today  disclosed,  had  tliree  wives.  The 
first  was  Kmma  An-pe-tu-tok-chu  or 
Otherday,  daughter  of  Jacob  Otherday. 
who  in  turn  was  a  brother  to  Chief 
John  Otherday,  a  noted  character, 
whose  loyalty  to  the  whites  during  the 
years  of  the  outbreak  stamped  him  as 
one  of  the  heroes  of  the  day.  She  lives 
at  Shakopee. 

The  second  wife  was  Ya-ha-da  Oe- 
kl-yl,  who  is  now  a  squaw  residing 
o  the  SissTt(^n  rfservatlon  in  South 
Pakota.  Slic  is  now  known  by  the 
name  of  Ellen  tJilbeit.  The  third  wife 
Is    Julia    McKay,    whose    name    before 


tT.   mnrrlage    to    La    Framboise    was 
Jutia  Lta-zi-win. 

.**,"••"*''*"  *"»••■*  Witt. 

The  evidence  disclosed  that  La  Fram- 
bolse  first  married  In  18&6.  Kmma 
L-a  framboise,  an  Indian  squaw,  aged 
M),  who  is  the  mother  of  Da-wee.  or 
Pavid,  plaintift  in.  the  law  suit,  testl- 
ned  through  an  Interpreter  vesterdav 
afternoon,  that  Alexis  "bought  her" 
from  Jacob  An-pe-tu-tok-cha,  or  Oth- 
erday during  her  16th  year.  She  de- 
clared that  Ya-ha-da.  the  woman  claim. 
Ing  to  be  his  second  wife,  was  her 
cousin. 

Emma  La  Framboise  admitted  that 
at  the  time  of  the  outbreak  in  1863. 
four  years  before  the  birth  of  David, 
she  knew  that  Alexis  had  been  living 
at  intervals  with  Ya-ha-da  and  ad- 
mitted that  she  knew  that  he  had 
children  by  her.  She  stoutly  main- 
tained, however,  that  Alexis  La  Fram- 
boise was  the  father  of  David  W.  Ux 
Framboise,  whose  parentage  has  been 
questioned  by  the  defense.  She  also 
claimed  that  she  was  duly  married  to 
La  Framboise  in  1859,  according  to  all 
of  the  rites  and  usages  of  the  Indian 
tribe  of  which  she  was  a  member, 
l.a  Framboise  was  of  French-Indian 
extraction  and  at  the  time  of  the  out- 
break   served    as   an   army    scout. 

Ya-lia-da,  or  as  she  is  now  known, 
Klkn  Gilbert,  is  expected  to  arrive 
here  Monday  from  the  Sisseton  reser- 
vation to  give  her  testimony  and 
claims  to  the  lawful  heirship  of  Alexis 
I-a  Framboise.  The  evidence  showed 
today  that  Ya-ha-da  and  Julia,  I^ 
Iramboise's  third  squaw,  were  living 
together  during  the  declining  vears 
og  Alexis'  life.  He  had  children  by 
each. 

Thomas  Robertson,  a  white  man  who 
has  spent  the  greater  part  of  his  life 
among  the  Indian  people  and  whose 
wife  Is  an  Indian  woman  on  the  Sis- 
seton reservation,  who  has  been  act- 
ing an  Interpreter  for  the  various  wit- 
nesses, this  morning  was  called  to  the 
stand    to    give   testimony. 

He  stated  that  David  W.  La  Fram- 
boise, the  Indian  plaintiff  in  the  case 
bore  no  resemblance  whatsoever  to 
Alexis  La  Framboise,  whom  he  claims 
as  his  father  Rev.  Kzak  Renville,  an 
Indian  minister  of  the  gospel  who 
talks  no  English  but  preaches  the 
Presbyterian  faith  to  the  red  men  of 
the  Sisseton  reservation,  also  testified 
to  the  same  thing.  He  stated  that  dur- 
ing the  outbreak  he  had  served  as  a 
scout  with  Alexis  La  Framboise.  The 
boy  Da-wee,  he  claimed  had  none  of 
his   fathers   features. 

Stately  Indian. 

Renviljf  was  attired  in  a  long  frock 
coat  lined  with  silk  and  was  about  the 
stateliest  looking  Indian  that  has  been 
seen  in  Duluth  for  many  a  moon.  He 
was  neatly  shaven  and  unlike  the  oth- 
er Indian  witnesses  In  the  court  room 
wore  a  white  collar.  Renville  saTd  that 
he  was  ordained  a  minister  of  the  gos- 
pel in  1883.  He  preaches  the  white 
man's   Bible    in    Indian,   he   said. 

Robertson,  the  interprctor.  related 
his  connection  with  the  Sioux  outbreak  I 


of  1862  as  a  part  of  his  testimony'  this 
morning.  He  was  among  the  whites 
captured  by  the  Indians  In  1862  near 
Morton,  Minn.  "With  his  mother  an<l 
family  he  was  held  a  captive  for  seven 
weeks,  until  released  by  General  Sib- 
ley. Robertson  was  then  about  24  years 
old.     Now  he  is  73. 

After  the  outbreak,  Robertson  joined 
the  army,  enlisting  in  the  First  Min- 
nesota heavy  artillery.  He  was  dis- 
charged In  1865  and  went  to  South 
Dakota,  where  the  government  put  liim 
In  charge  of  a  band  of  fifteen  scouts 
in  1S66.  He  served  in  that  capacity 
until  after  the  Indian  troubles  were 
over.  His  close  association  with  the 
Indians  during  many  years  has  made 
him  well  versed  in  their  language, 
customs  and   usages. 

Alexis  La  Framboise  died  on  the  Sis- 
seton reservation  on  March  4.  1876.  His 
first  wife,  Emma  La  Framboise  remar- 
ried shortly  afterwards,  and  became 
the  wife  of  Joe  Campbell.  She  claims 
that  there  Is  one  Issue  of  this  marriage, 
a  boy  now  15  years  old. 

The  defense  claims  that  Alexis  left  In 
1863,  going  away  with  Ya-ha-da,  and 
that  lie  never  returned  to  live  with 
her  again.  It  is  claimed  that  the  boy. 
Da-wee,  who  was  born  some  time  dur- 
ing the  year  1866,  was  not  the  son  of 
Alexis.  This  the  mother  and  her  wit- 
nesses deny. 

Three  more  witnesses  will  be  called 
before  resting  the  case.  The  testi- 
mony will  probably  all  be  In  by  Mon- 
day.

supply  of  water  proved  fatal  to  hun-

small  creeks  were  frozen  over  and 
there  was  little  snow  on  the  ranges.

tary Fisher. 


Explains  Theories  for  De- 
crease in  White  Popu- 
lation. 


Washington,  Dec.  27. — Alaska  has 
prospered  in  many  respects  during'  the 
last  year,  according  to  Governor  Wal- 
ter K.  Claik  in  his  annual  report,  sub- 
mitted to  Secretary  of  the  Interior 
Fisher. 

Governor  Clark  deplores,  however, 
the  present  lack  of  railroad  construc- 
tion and  of  cheap  native  fuel,  declaring 
that  proper  development  of  the  terri- 
tory seems  to  demand  some  methods 
of  transportations  and  the  opening  up 
of  the  fuel  resources. 

He  asserts  that  'the  residents  gen- 
erally are  willing  to  accept  any  meas- 
ure which  will  cause_.  th^  fuel  re- 
sources to  be  opened  lb 'devejopmcnt, 
so  much  so  that  tH>r  r^mparative  ad- 
vantages of  a  feo  ivvstepii,  a  leasing 
plan  or  government  gptu'ation.  have  al- 
most ceased  to  be  i|iattcrs  of  discus- 
sion."

lation  during  the  last  two  years,  he 
attributes  to  '"diminished  activity  in 
placer  mining  in  the  interior  vallevs, 
and  in  equal  measure,  probablv,  to  in- 
adequate land  laws;  to  the  remark- 
able public  calumnies  about  Alaska 
which  have  kept  capital  without  its 
border,  and  to  the  failure  of  congress 
to  lend  necessary  means  of  encourage- 
ment to  the  development  of  a  virein 
region." 

As  to  commerce  between  Alaska  and 
the  Lnited  States  and  with  foreign 
countries,  it  was  the  largest  last  vear

TURKEYS  ARE 
HARDJTO  FIND 

Country    Has    Not    Such 

Supplies  of  the  Birds  as 

Was  Supposed. 


All  Kinds  of  Poultry  Will  Be 

Higher— Vegetables 

Are  Rising. 


Wholesale  poultry  dealers  of  Duluth 
declare  that  they  are  surprised  to  find 
how  few  turkeys  the  farmers  actually 
have  had  this  year  and  that  It  is  very 
difficult  to  fill  orders  for  the  New 
Year's  trade.  There  has  been  quite  a 
heavy  movement  for  the  Christmas 
trade,  but  there  have  not  been  so 
many  of  the  birds  on  the  market  as 
there  were  a  year  ago,  simply  because 
the   dealers  could   not   get   thein. 

About  Thanksgiving  time  It  was 
very  hard  indeed  to  get  any  consider- 
able quantities  of  turkeys  that  were 
fit  for  the  market.  Most  the  turkeys 
that  were  available  were  entirely  too 
young,  having  been  hatched  late  in  the 
spring.  Early  in  the  spring  the  weath- 
er was  very  damp  and  cold,  and  the 
young  birds  did  not  thrive.  But  it 
was  thought  that  about  Christmas 
time,  the  young  birds  would  not  only 
be  fat  enough  to  be  marketed,  but 
would  be  numerous  enough  to  make  a 
very  considerable  reduction  In  the 
price.  However,  this  expectation  was 
only  partially  fulfilled.  Turkeys  did 
indeed  become  more  plentiful,  and  the 
wholesale  price  of  the  dressed  birds 
dropped  from  23  to  21  cents  a  pound. 
But  the  dealers  were  disappointed  in 
the  movement  of  the  turkeys  and  were 
not  able  to  fill  their  orders  as  thy 
expected.  The  result  of  the  discovery 
of  the  actual  scarcity  of  turkeys  in  the 
country  has  been  an  advance  in  the 
price,  which  is  now  22  cents  a  pound 
for  the  dressed  birds. 

It  Is  expected  that  all  kinds  of 
poultry  will  be  higher  in  price  In  the 
near  future,  as  receipts  will  be  drop- 
ping off  on  account  of  the  cold  weath- 
er, and  the  live  birds  will  no  longer 
be  sufficient  in  number  to  satisfy  the 
demand,  and  as  a  natural  result  the 
prices  have   remained  very   steady. 

•  •      « 

The  wholesale  prices  of  other  meats 
at  Duluth  have  not  changed  since  a 
week  ago.  Beef  is  still  very  high.  Re- 
ceipts of  livestock  at  all  the  main 
packing  centers  in  the  country  have 
been  quite  light,  owing  in  large  meas- 
ure, to  the  holiday  season.  Farmers, 
like  other  people,  have  been  taking 
things  comparatively  easy  and  the 
markets  showed  the  natural  conse- 
quences. 

•  *      • 

Fresh  eggs  are  at  the  same  price  as 
they  commanded  a  week  ago,  but 
storage  eggs  are  a  little  lower,  the 
price  at  wholesale  being  21  to  22 
cents  a  dozen  against  22  to  23  cents 
a  week  ago.  The  fresh  eggs  have 
been  coming  into  the  market  some- 
what more  plentifully,  and  the  dealers, 
in  order  to  meet  this  condition  have 
put  down  the  price  of  the  storage 
eggs.  The  comparatively  mild  weath- 
er  that  has  recently  prevailed  has  had 
the  effect  of  increasing  the  laying  of 
eggs. 

•  •      • 

Creamery  butter  is  at  the  same  price 
as  It  commanded  a  week  ago,  but 
dairy  butter  Is  a  little  cheaper,  now 
selling-  at  wholesale  for  24  to  25  cents 
a  pound,  instead  of  25  to  26  cents, 
which  it  brought  a  week  ago.  Brick 
cheese  is  a  little  cheaper,  the  price  at 
wholesale  having  declined  from  20  to 
19  cents  a  pound. 

Milk  is  no  longer  actually  scarce. 
There  is  enough  to  supply  the  trade, 
but   little    if   any   surplus. 

•  *      • 

Many  of  the  vegetables  on  the  mar- 
kets are  higher  by  reason  of  the  ad- 
vance of  the  winter  and  the  storage 
and  insurance  charges.  Florida  wax 
beans  have  gone  up  from  $5  to  $6.50 
a  bushel  hamper,  green  beans  from 
$4.50  to  $6,  round  hothouse  radishes 
from  65  to  85  cents  a  dozen  bunches, 
hothouse  cucumbers  from  $1.94  to 
$2.60  a  dozen,  California  cauliflowers 
from  $3.50  to  $3.75  for  a  crate  of  two 
dozen,  and  hubbard  squashes  from  $3 
to  $3.25  a  barrel.  Milwaukee  celery, 
which  a  week  ago  was  selling  at  $3.50 
per  dozen  boxes,  now  brings  $3.65.  The 
The  quality  of  this  product  has  im- 
proved considerably  of  late.  Jersey 
sweet  potatoes  have  advanced  from  $2 
to  $2.25  a  bushel  hamper. 

•  *      • 

Fresh  California  tomatoes  are  still 
on  the  market.  Cuban  tomatoes  are 
also  here.  These  are  just  as  fine  .ap- 
pearing and  are  much  better  in  flavor 
than  the  California.  A  six-basket 
crate  brings  $4.35,  which  is  about  the 
usual  price  for  this  season  of  the  year. 

•  *      • 

California  navel  oranges  are  finer  In 
quality,  the  season  now  being  at  its 
height,  and  cheaper  than  they  were  a 
week  ago.  a  box  which  a  week  ago  sold 
for  $4  now  going  for  $3.40.  Valenclas 
are  about  gone  and  will  soon  be  off 
the   market  altogether. 

Catawba  grapes,  from  New  Tork, 
are  no  longer  to  be  had. 

•  *      • 

Apples  are  due  to  rise  in  price  25 
cents  a  barrel  after  the  first  of  the 
year.  Most  of  the  loose  stock  has  been 
disposed  of  and  dealers  will  soon  be 
drawing  on  their  stored  stock,  and  to 
the  price  will  be  added  the  storage 
charges,  including  cost  of  Insurance. 
Apples  are  very  reasonable  in  price 
this  year  and  the  quality  is  good.  They 
are  keeping  remarkably  well. 

California  lemons,  which  have  been 
quite  high  for  a  long  time,  the  mar- 
ket supply  being  short,  have  begun  to 
decline  in  price,  as  arrivals  are  a  little 
freer.  A  box,  which  a  week  aago  sold 
for  $6.50,  now  brings  $6.

ALUMNUS  VERY  ILL. 

Denver,  Col.,  Dec.  27. — Levi  Booth,  a 
Colorado  pioneer  and  the  sole  survivor 
of  the  first  graduating  class  of  the 
University  of  Wisconsin,  is  seriously 
ill  at  his  home  near  here.  Booth  has 
undergone  four  operations  In  the  last 
few  months,  the  last  one  about  a  month 
ago.  His  advanced  age  makes  his  con- 
dition  critical,   say   the   physicians.

Weak,  Cold  Spells 

Wilmington,  N.  C. — Mrs.  Cora  L. 
Ritter,  of  this  place,  says:  "I  used  to 
have  headaches,  and  blind  dizzy  spells, 
and  weak  cold  spells  went  all  over  me. 
I  had  different  doctors,  but  they  were 
unable  to  tell  me  what  was  wrong,  so 
I  began  to  take  Cardui.  I  am  now 
all  right,  in  good  health,  and  better 
than  I  have  been  for  10  years."  Car- 
dui is  a  remedy  for  women,  which  has

11   iuiluth  s  leading  stores. 

Many  stores  are  preparing  for  inventory.     They  are  reducing 
y    stocks,   closing   out   odd   lots,   and   sacrificing    holiday   mer- 

::iise    in    order    to    put    their   house   in    order    for    the   coming

Washington,  Dec.  27. — A  bulletin 
summari'/.ing  the  data  collected  for 
dairy  products  in  the  United  States  for 
1909  has  just  been  Issued  by  Director 
Durand  of  the  bureau  of  the  census. 
It  was  prepared  under  the  supervision 
of  John  I.ee  Coulter,  expert  special 
agent  for  agriculture. 

There    were    5,140, aC9    farms    in    the 
United    States    for    which    the    enumer- 
ators  reported  dairy  cows  on  April  15, 
1910.   For  only  4,413,333  of  these  farms 
were    dairy    products    of   any   kind    re- 
ported   as    produced    in    1909,    and    for 
only     4,021,460     was     the     quantity     of 
milk   produced   in    1909   stated.   The    to- 
tal   number    of    dairy    cows    on    farms 
April   15,   1910,  was  reported  as  20,625,- 
000,   while  the  number  on  farms  which 
reported  the  production  of  any  kind  of 
dairv    products    in    1909    was    18,746,000, 
or   90.9    per   cent   of   the   total   number, 
and    the    number    of    farms    which    re- 
ported   the   production   of   milk    in    1909 
was   16,069,000,   or  77.9   per   cent  of   the 
total.    In    considering    these    figures,    it 
should  be   borne   in  mind  that  there   is 
no    precise    distinction    between    dairy 
cows   and    cows    not   kept   for   milk.    In 
a  gi'od   many  cases  enumerators  prob- 
ably   reported    as    dairy    cows    animals 
wliicli   in   fact  were  primarily   kept  for 
breeding  purposes  and  which  were  only 
milked  lor  short  periods,  if  at  all,  dur- 
ing the  preceding  year.  • 
The     total     production     of    milk     re- 
ported   for    1909    was    5,814,000,000    gal- 
lons;  the   true   total   probably  exceeded 
this     by     not    less     tlian     10     per     cent. 
There   were,   on   April   15,    1910,    16,069,- 
000  dairy  cows  on  the  farms  reporting 
this    milk.    Assuming    that    there    were 
the    same   number  in    1909   the   average 
production   of  milk  per   cow   would   be 
362    gallons.                                         j,      ^        * 
The  total  value  of  dairy  products  of 
farms    in    1909,    exclusive    of    milk    and 
cream  consumed  on   the  farm,  was  re- 
ported  as    $596,413,000.   This   represents 
the   sum   of  the   receipts  from  the   sale 
of  milk,  cream  and  butter  fat  (amount- 
ing    in     all     to     1872,403.000)     and     the 
value    of    all    butter    and    cheese    pro- 
duced   on    farms,    whether   sold    or    re- 
tained   for    home     use     (amounting    to 
1224,010,000). 

Value    of   Dairy   Products. 
The     total     reported    value    of    dairy 
products   sold   in   1909   was   $473,769,000, 
of  vvhldi  the  value  of  milk,  cream  and 
butter     fat      sold      represented     nearly 
four-fifths  and    that  of  butter  most  of 
the    remainder.    The    quantity    of    milk 
sold    as    such    was    reported    as    1,937,- 
000,000    gallons,    or    substantially    one- 
third  of  the  total  reported  as  produced; 
but  it  should  be  borne   in  mind  that  a 
great    deal    of    milk    sold    or    delivered 
to    creameries    for    butter    making    is 
paid    for    on    the    basis    of    the    cream 
or    butter    fat    content,    in    which    case 
the   quantitv    of   such    cream   or    butter 
fat    was   usually   reported    on    the    cen- 
sus  schedules  and  not   the  quantity  of 
milk.    The    greater    part    of    the    milk,« 
reported    as    sold    was    doubtless    con- 
sumed   as    such,    chiefly    in    cities    and 
villages     but    a    considerable    quantity 
represents  milk  delivered  to  condensed 
milk    and    cheese    factories,    and    some 
small  part  milk  delivered  to  creameries 
for    the    production    of    butter   and    re- 
ported as  milk  instead  of  on  the  basis 
of    the   cream    or   butter    fat   contained. 
Batter  amd   Cheetie. 
The      reported     farm     production  _  of 
butter  and   of  cheese  in  1909 — 994/6ol,- 
000    pounds    and    9,406,000    pounds     re- 
spectively— was  considerably  less   than 
the    production    for    the    year    1899    as 
given    in    the    published   reports   of    the 
twelfth    census,    but    this    difference    is 
doubtless  due  In  part  to  the  fact  that 
the  latter  Included  some  estimates  for 
farms    with    incomplete    reports.      The 
manufacture    of    butter    and    chee^se    is, 
however,    gradually    being    transferred 
from  farms  to  factories.  The  conibined 
farm  and  factory  production  of  butter 
was    1,619.415,000    pounds    In    1909    and 
1  491,753,000    pounds    in    1899.    The    In- 
crease    during     the    decade     was     thus 
127  663.000  pounds,  or  8.6  per  cer\t.  The 
factory  production  alone  increased  48.7 
per    cent.    Of    the    total    product,     that 
made   in    factories   constituted    38.6   per 
cent   in   1909   and   28.2   per  cent  in   1899. 
The    production    of    cheese    on    farms 
and  in  factories  was  320,532,000  pounds 
In  1909.  an  Increase  of  7.4  per  cent.     At 
botli    censuses    much    the    greater    part 
of    the    cheese    was    made    in    factories, 
but    the    proportion    in    1909    (97.1    per 
cent)    was    higher    than    that    in    1899 
(94  5  per  cent).  .      . 

Of  the  total  value  of  dairy  products 
in  1909  (excluding  the  value  of  mllK 
ind  cream  consumed  on  the  farm 
whire  produced),  the  Ea.t  North  Cen- 
tral  division  reported  $159,674.0()0.  or 
•>6  8  per  cent  the  Middle  Atlantic  di- 
vision $130,773,000,  or  21.9  per  cent, 
and  the  West  North  Central  division 
$108  825.000,  or  •  18.2  per  cent,  these 
three  divisions  together  reporting  over 
two-thirds  of  the  total.  It  is  probable, 
however,  that  the  relative  importance 
of  the  home  consumption  of  milk  and 
cream  Is  considerably  greater  In  the 
South  and  somewhat  greater  In  the 
West  than  it  is  in  the  North. 

According  to  the  figures  reported, 
the  average  production  of  milk  per 
cow  (based  on  the  number  of  dairy 
cows  in  1910  on  farms  reporting  milk 
produced  In  1909  and  the  quantity  of 
milk  produced  In  1909)  was  very  much 
greater  In  the  New  England,  Middle 
\tlantlc.  East  North  Central  and  Pa- 
cific divisions  than  in  any  of  the  rest. 
This  doubtless  conforms  approximately 
to  the  facts.  , 

The     quantity     of     butter     made     on 
farms  was  less  In   1909  than  In  1899  »" 
the    four    geographic    divisions    of    the 
North,  and  also  in  the  Pacific  division, 
but  in  all  of  these  divisions,  except  the 
Middle  Atlantic  and  the  New  England, 
the    factory    production    was    decidedly 
greater   in'  the   later   year   than    In   the 
Earlier.      In    the    three    Southern    divi- 
sions   where  practically  all  the  butter 
is   still   made   on   farms,    there   was   an 
increase    In    farm    production    between 
1899    and    1909.    the    percentage    of    In- 
crease for  the  three  divisions  then   to- 
gether being  41.     Of  the  two  divisions 
in  which  the  greater  part  of  cheese    s 
made   in   factories,   the   Middle  Atlantic 
division    shows    a    marked    decrease    In 
production,    while    In    the    East    North 
Central  there  was  an  Increase  of  50  per 
cent  in  the  combined  farm  and  factory 
output. 

L.eadinK  Dairy  StateM. 
In  1909  the  leading  dairy  states,  as 
judged  by  the  total  value  of  the  farm 
production  (excluding  milk  and  cream 
used  at  home),  were  New  York,  W  is- 
consin.  Pennsylvania.  Illinois,  Iowa, 
Ohio.  Minnesota.  Michigan  and  Cali- 
fornia. In  each  of  which  the  value  re- 
ported exceeded  $20,000,000.  In  pro- 
duction of  butter  (on  farms  and  In  fac- 
tories combined)  Wisconsin  was  the 
leading  state,  followed  by  Iowa,  Min- 
nesota, Pennsylvania.  Michigan.  Ohio. 
Illinois  and  New  York.  A  large  part 
of  the  milk  produced  in  New  York  Is 
sold  for  consumption  In  the  cities,  and 
a  large  proportion  is  also  used  in  mak- 
ing cheese.  New  York  ranked  next  to 
Wisconsin  in  the  production  of  cheese, 
and  in  no  other  state  did  the  cheese 
production  equal  one-seVenth  of  the 
production  In  New  York.  In  combined 
production  of  butter  and  cheese  Wis- 
consin led  with  279,992,000  pounds,  fol-^

ENDOWS  BED  AT 

THE  SAMITABIUM 

Mrs.  Charles  E.  Mershon 

Makes  Generous  Gift  to 

Nopeming  Institution. 

The  St.  Louis  County  Sanitarium 
commission  reports  the  generous  offer 
of  Mrs.  Charles  E.  Mershon  to  endow  a 
bed  In  the  children's  cottage  at  Nopem- 
ing sanitarium  in  memory  of  her 
nephew.  Joseph  S.  Morrow. 

Her  plan  includes  the  equipment  of 
a  bed  at  the  cottage  with  everything 
necessary  for  the  comfort  of  the  child 
occupying  it.  All  the  child's  expenses 
win  be  paid  while  he  Is  at  the  sani- 
tarium and  it  is  her  purpose  to  con- 
tinue this  provision  from  year  to  year 
so  that  any  poor  child  needing  c-are 
may  be  admitted  at  once  without  an> 
delay  on  account  of  lack  of  funds.  The 
bed   Itself   will   bear  a  small   memorial 

This  Is  the  latest  evidence  Of  the  In- 
terest taken  by  citizens  of  Duluth  In 
the  work  for  tuberculous  children  at 
Nopeming  sanitarium.  The  children's 
cottage  itself  is  the  result  of  the  ef- 
forts of  a  committee  of  Duluth  wome^ 
who  secured  $10,000  for  the  purpose  of 
Its  erection.  It  is  probable  that  on  ac- 
count of  their  enterprise  the  work 
among  the  children  Is  actively  progres- 
sing several  years  earlier  than  it 
otherwise    would  be.      It   was   a   provl-

sion  made  by  the  legislature  in  fram-

was  established  that  gifts  from  citl- 
zei»3  might  be  received  into  the  tuber- 
culosis sanitarium  fund  to  be  expended 
for  special  purposes.  As  a  result  it  has 
been  possible  for  the  commission  to 
inaugurate  lines  of  work  which  would 
otherwise  have  been  delayed  possibly 
for  years.  The  personal  interest 
shown  by  the  community  in  the  mak- 
ing of  the  Institution  a  real  factor  in 
the  relief  and  prevention  of  tubercu- 
losis is  thoroughly  appreciated  by  the 
management.  The  example  set  by  Mrs. 
Mershon  is  one  that  it  is  hoped  will  be 
followed  by  others.

Theosophical  Society  Discusses  Con- 
ditions in  the  Astral  Plane. 

The  Duluth  lodge  of  the  Theosoph- 
ical society  took  up  at  its  meeting  last 
evening  the  conditions  at  death  and 
the  commencement  of  the  study  of  the 
life  after  death. 

The  evening's  discussion  as  summar- 
ized by  one  of  the  members  was  brief- 
ly as  follows:  »  _   .„ 
"The   matter   of   our   Solar   system   is 
divided  into  seven  great  classes  called 
planes    or    worlds,    and    all    these    exist 
in  the  same  space.  Interpenetrating,  as 
their  chief  difference  is  a  difference  in 
density.      Man's    body    contains    matter 
of   all    these    divisions   but    the    matter 
of    each    division    Is    usually    spoken    of 
as    a    separate    body    corresponding    to 
that    plane    or    world.      Each    of    these 
planes    is    In    turn    divided    Into    seven 
sub-divisions    so    ihat    the    matter    of 
any  one  body  Is  of  seven  kinds.     That 
part   of   mans    physical    body   made   of 
solids,   liquids   and   gases  is   known    as 
the   dense   part    of   the      physical   body 
and   the   part   made    of   the    four   other 
divisions    of    physical    plane    matter    is 
called    the    etheric   double.      These   two 
parts  can   be   partially   separated   caus- 
Ine-    unconsciousness      in    the      physical 
brain   as  in  sleep   and   when   under  the 
Influence      of   anaesthetic     -but  a   com- 
plete  separation   causes  what   we   com- 
monly  call   death.  „„,„i,,^„ 
"When  the  average  man  first  awakes 
to  consciousness  In  the  astral  plane,  or 
emotional    world    as    it    is    more    aptly 
cXd.   he    is    usually     much      confused 
and   at   loss   to   account   for   his.co"^- 
tlon      In  one  way  he  seems  to  be  Btm 
in    the    physical    world    yet   there    Is    a 
difference    which    he    does    not    under- 
stand  due   to   the   peculiarity   of   astral 
vision,   sometimes   referred   to   in   theo- 
sophical   literature     as   'sight     In      the 
fourth    dimension.'      Man   in   the   astral 
body    receives   impressions    by    impacts 
on  any  part  of  the  surface  of  the  body. 
Objects  are   not  seen   In   perspective   as 
in   the  physical  world  but  are  seen  ex- 
actly as  they  are.  For  example    a  cube 
would    appear   as    having    all    Us    sides 
and   lines   equal   and   also   every    parti- 
cle   of    matter    making      up    the    cube 
would   be  seen.   Inside   as   well   as   out- 
side.     Especially   is   he   adverse   to    be- 
lieving himself  dead  a»  the   leaving   of 


the  physical  body  is  also  the  leaving 
of  all  pain  and  fatigue  so  that  the 
man  reallv  feels  more  alive  than  when 
In  the  physical  body.  This  Is  well  il- 
lustrated by  Ji  story  of  an  English 
general  told  by  C.  W.  Leadbeater.  One 
of  the  workers  on  the  astral  plane  was 
trying  to  help  him  realize  his  condi- 
tion and  the  general  is  reported  to 
•have  said,  'But  if  I  am  dead,  where 
am  I?  If  this  is  Heaven  I  dont  think 
much  of  it;  and  if  It  is  hell,  it  is  bet- 
ter than  I  expected';  humorous  as 
showing  what  the  general  expected  but 
pathetic  in  thJtt  it  shows  the  needless 
sorrow  and  suffering  caused  in  the 
world  by  the  widespread  Ignorance  of 
the  conditions  of  life  after  death."

nothing  like  it  occurred  in  Ohio  before. 
There  have  been  Democratic  governors 
in  Ohio  since  the  war,  at  long  inter- 
vals, but  never  before  in  that  time  has 

a  Democratic  governor  succeeded  a 
Democratic  governor. 

It  looks  as  though  the  seating  ca- 
pacity, 500,  of  the  dining  room  of  ihe 
Southern,  where  the  dinner  is  to  be 
held,  will  be  reached  long  before  the

MINNESOTA  POLITICS 

Senators  Involved  in  Combine  Against  Burnquist 
Are  Hearing  From  Their  Constituents— Many 
Good  Measures  Are  Missing  From  List  to  Be 
Recommended  by  Governor  Eberhart — Attempt 
Will  Be  Made  to  Eliminate  Second  Choice  Fea- 
ture of  Primary  Law, 


**CominitteeM  on  CouiinitteeM." 

Resolutions  providiiiK  for  the  elec- 
tion of  committees  on  committees  will 
be  presented  In  the  house  by  Repre- 
sentative Krnest  Lundeen  of  Minne- 
apolis) and  in  the  senate  by  Senator  F. 
A.  Duxbiiry  of  Houston  county,  accord- 
ing: to  the  present  plans  of  those  who 
would  "organize  alon;;  projjressive 
lines.  " 

The  effort  in  the  house  ia  hardly 
■worth  loiisideratlon.  The  progressives 
nri'  ill  alts-'Iute  control  in  that  branch 
of  the  l<j4lslaiure  and  they  will  not  al- 
low Uk'  r.in  timiary  element  to  deprive 
lloniy  Kiiuw  of  the  power  of  appoint- 
luK    conunittees. 

In  the  senate  a  combination  of  Dem- 
ocrats and  reactionary  Republicans 
•would  have  a  better  chance  of  success. 
If  all  involved  In  the  original  plans 
Bhoutd  stand  by  their  guns.  Early — 
perhajis  prtinature —  publicity  has  up- 
Mt  I  ill-  plans  of  the  Smith-SuUivan- 
l>u\!u!y  oi^aniuation,  and  the  sena- 
t'ls  •■.iiinfiil  upon  to  take  part  in  the 
'  hii  against  Burnquist  are 
I  iiom  their  constituents. 

.So  newspaper  that  is  free  from  the 
domination  of  the  Republican  machine 
h.i.><  had  a  good  word  to  say  for  the 
l>ro!'i'.-<<'d  combination  against  Burn- 
«iuif<t,  and  othtr  papers  are  speaking 
l^x  unniis;takable  terms.  With  an  elec- 
ti'in  two  years  away,  the  senators  who 
t  lu- 1-  the  combine  will  do  so  with  cer- 
'  ■  I  liniination  from  politics  looming 
The  people  are  not  inclined  to 
.;„  .  :    for  any  such   deal. 

The  Albert  Lea  Standard  speaks 
bne!l>     iri.l   to  the  point: 

Ti  .;    in    the  state   senate,   Re- 

puM.  V  mocratic,  is  organizing  to 

I .  > :;n)f  operations  and  our  distin- 
^.11!  i...l  statesman.  Senator  Ander- 
>i'i;.  is,  of  course,  a  dependable  stand- 
iii   number  of  the  contemptible  com- 

i  ■  ,    St.    Cloud   Journal-Press   says: 

The  latest  In  state  politics  is  that 
B  majority  of  the  state  senators. 
cinn:  iviiiu:  nil  the  Democrats  and 
th.  \<o-i  iU..l  standpat  Republicans, 
have  foiTiinl  a  combine  for  tiie  pur- 
pose of  taking  away  the  appoint- 
ment of  lae  committees  from  Lleu- 
tena;:t    i;o\^i!ior    Burnquist. 

Thi  so  •  tnarhine"  senators  are  do- 
ing this  in  the  name  of  "progressive 
refc>rrn.'  which  in  this  instance  is 
an   X-.  av   of  irony. 

This  p'orodure  is  clearly  within 
t:  r  1.^1 1  rights  of  the  majority  of 
tlu-  s  :;.iturs.  whatever  their  motives. 
It  h  IS  i  (  t  11  tiio  practice  to  have  the 
licutt  Dint  governor  appoint  the 
I  oinrniltees,  but  neither  the  Consti- 
tution nor  the  law  confers  any  such 
pt>wer  on   him. 

."^U(  h  a  combine  was  formed  some 
y«.irs  ago  when  Gideon  S.  Ives  was 
lit  ut^■Iiallt  uovornor.  The  reasons 
then  wtre  political,  and  a  few  dis- 
pnif.fl.d  lU'iiublicans  combined  with 
f  MM  rats   to  name   the  commlt- 

t' 

I/ieim-nant  Governor  Burnquist  is 
a  progressive  and  he  has  been  keep- 
ing his  own  counsel.  The  plain  truth 
of  the  matter  seems  to  be  that  the 
old  politicians  in  the  senate  are 
afraid  of  him,  and  propose  to  clip 
hi.s  wings.  The  railroads  and  the 
brewery  trust  do  not  want  Burn- 
quist to  name  the  committees,  be- 
cause they  think  he  would  try  and 
give  the  people  a  fair  deal.  As 
Burnquist  is  not  a  skillful  politician, 
it  is  very  probable  that  the  senate 
combine  will  be  pulled  off  accord- 
ing  to  program. 

-vjui  <iy  iiiis  token  the  people  need 
not  expect  any  very  progressive  leg- 
islation.

The    Governor's    MensHRe. 

Governor  Eberharfs  message  recom- 
mendations have  been  announced. 
Good  measures  are  suggested  on  the 
whole,  but  several  good  measures  that 
stand  an  excellent  chance  of  becoming 
laws  at  the  coming  session  are  con- 
spicuous by  their  absence  from  the 
list. 

The  initiative  and  referendum  are 
not  mentioned.  Woman  suffrage,  non- 
partisan county  office  elections,  the 
short  ballot,  the  extension  of  the  re- 
clamation service,  the  creation  of 
county   assessors,    provision    for    county 


agricultural  instructions,  the  plan  to 
Imve  the  sstate  guarantee  county  im- 
provement bonds  and  the  proposal  to 
tax  state  lands  for  roads,  bridges  and 
other  improvements  are  not  in  the 
published  list  of  measures  to  be  rec- 
ommended to  the  legislature. 

The  chances  are  that  most  of  the 
laws  suggested  by  the  governor  will 
be  passed,  but  the  governor's  appar- 
ent lack  of  interest  In  other  laws  will 
not  prevent  their  passage.

recognized   Is   indicated   by   the   follow- 
ing from   the  Preston  Times,   edited  by

The  Bull  Moose  party  wreckers 
have  prepared  a  bill  which  shall  give 
them  a  legal  standing.  They  cannot 
wait  till  they  shall  have  become  suf- 
ficiently strong,  numerically  to  en- 
title them  to  the  privileges  enjoyed 
by  the  older  parties,  but  must  cut 
cross  lots  In  their  hurry  to  gain  con- 
trol of  the  official  pap  while  the 
wave  of  hysteria  Is  still  in  ascend- 
ency. The  legislature  can  employ  its 
time  to  better  advantage  than  to  play 
the  cat's  paw  for  Halbert  and  Com- 
pany. If  there  be  merit  in  the  Bull 
Moose  party  people  will  find  it  out 
In  due  time  and  nothing  will  be  lost 
In  waiting,  except  the  emoluments 
of  office  for  the  few  patriots  who 
would  sacrifice  principle  any  day  for 
the  sake  of  notoriety  coupled  with 
well-paying  political  Jobs.

Wants  the  Second  Choice. 

Wheelock's  Weekly,  published  in 
Fergus  Falls,  comes  to  the  support  of 
the  second  choice  provision  of  the 
primary  law.  An  attempt  will  prob- 
ably be  made  at  the  coming  session  to 
have  the  law  amended  so  as  to  elimin- 
ate the  second  choice,  but  it  will  meet 
with  determined  opposition.  Wheelock's 
Weekly    says: 

The  demand  in  various  quarters 
that  the  "second  choice"  provision  of 
the  primary  ballot  In  Minnesota  be 
eliminated  is  premature.  Some  of 
the  wisest  and  best  provisions  on 
our  statute  books  have  had  to  be 
maintained  through  a  few  years  of 
uncertain  application  and  feeble  re- 
sults, notably  the  Australian  ballot. 
The  Minneapolis  Journal  which  ad- 
vocates a  repeal  of  the  second  choice 
law,  refers  to  it  as  "ideal  in  theory." 
That  is  precisely  the  reason  why  It 
should  not  be  repealed.  If  it  be  con- 
ceded that  Its  theory  is  sound,  the 
practice  of  It  will  come  easier  with 
each  succeeding  election,  and  in  time 
the  state  will  find  it  is  one  of  the 
most  important  features  of  a  smooth- 
ly working  and  satisfactory  primary 
election.  There  are  other  points  In 
the  primary  law  which  may,  perhaps, 
be  modified  to  advantage.  The  Jour- 
nal suggests  as  one  of  these  the  par- 
tisan character  of  the  primary,  urg- 
ing in  its  place  a  non-partisan  ballot. 
This  seem.s  reasonable.  Already,  the 
people  vote  for  non-partisan  judges 
and  school  superintendents,  and  do 
not  find  it  a  bad  thing.     Perhaps  non- 

Eartlsanshlp  all  along  the  line  would 
e  still  better.  The  point  here  in- 
sisted on  is  that  when  the  state  has 
secured  reform  legislation  of  a  high 
type,  affecting  the  election  laws,  it 
should  be  very  cautious  about  repeal- 
ing It,  even  if  on  the  first  trial  It 
does  not  accomplish  all  the  good  re- 
sults that  were  hoped  for  from  It.

Worth  Weight  in  Gold 

Abingdon,  Va. — Mrs.  Jennie  Mc- 
Call,  of  this  place,  says,  "I  had  been 
troubled  with  female  complaints,  for 
over  ten  years.  I  could  not  walk  oi 
stand  on  my  feet,  and  had  been  al- 
most confined  to  the  house,  for  a 
long  time.  I  began  to  take  Cardui, 
the  woman's  tonic,  and  now  I  can 
walk  anywhere  I  want  to  go."  Cardui 
is  worth  its  v.eight  in  gold."  This  is 
a  high  estimate  on  a  plain,  herb  medi- 
cine, yet  there  are  thousands  of  wom- 
en who  would  gladly  pay  this  price 
for  a  remedy  to  relieve  their  suffer- 
ing. Cardui  has  helped  others.  Why 
not  you?  Try  it.  Your  druggist  sells 
it,  in  $1  bottles. 


The  first  supply  of  parcel  post 
stamps  for  use  in  Duluth  have  just 
been  received  by  the  local  postoffice 
and  on  Jan.  1  will  be  on  sale  for  those 
wi-shing  to  take  advantage  of  the  new 
law.  These  stamps  will  h.ave  to  be 
used  on  all  fourth-class  mail  matter 
after  Jan.  1,  except  "permit  mall," 
which  consists  of  fourth  class  matter 
weighing  not  less  than  four  ounces.  On 
this  "permit  mail'  the  regular  postage 
stamp.s  are  to  be  used  and  the  cliarge 
shall  be  1  cent  for  each  ounce  or  frac- 
tion thereof.  But  mail  ■weighing  more 
than  four  ounces  shall  be  cliarged  by 
the    pound. 

There  are  twelve  denominations  in 
the  set  received,  the  values  being  1.  2. 
3.  4..  5,  10,  1.",  20,  25,  50,  75  and  SI.  Be- 
sides the  regular  issue  of  adhesives 
for  parcels  there  is  a  set  of  special 
parcel  post  postage  due  stamps.  The 
values  are  1,  2,  5,  10  and  25  cents. 
All  One  Color. 

The  parcel  post  stamps  are  a  novelty 
as  they  are  all  printed  in  one  color- 
red,  while  the  postage  due  stamps  are 
printed  in  green.  The  parcel  post 
stamps  measure  one  by  one  and  one- 
quarter  Inches  between  the  perforation 
lines.  In  a  curved  panel  across  the 
top,  supported  by  a  paneled  perpendic- 
ular column  at  each  end,  appear  the 
words  "U.  S.  Parcel  Post"  in  Roman 
capital  letters.  Triangular  ornaments 
occupy  both  upper  corners.  The  de- 
nomination in  large  numerals  is  in 
each  lower  corner  with  the  title  of 
the  subject  and  the  word  "cents"  (or 
"dollar")  between.  The  subjects  of  the 
stamps  are: 

One  cent,  postoffice  clerk;  2  cents, 
city  carrier;  3  cents,  railway  postal 
clerk;  4  cents,  rural  carrier;  5  cents, 
mail  train;  10  cents,  steamship  and 
mail  tender:  15  cents,  automobile  serv- 
ice; 20  cents,  aeroplane  carrying  mail; 
25  cents,  manufacturing;  f.O  cent.s. 
dairying;  75  cents,  harvesting,  and  $1, 
fruit  growing. 

The  parcel  post  due  stamns  are  one 
by  one  and  one-half  inches  between 
the  perforation  lines.  In  a  horizontal 
l>anel  across  the  top  are  the  words 
■'i:.  S.  Parcels  Post,"  and  In  a  similar 
panel  at  the  bottom.  "'Postage  Due," 
In  Roman  capital  letters.  In  the  cen- 
ter upon  a  background  of  Withework, 
and  within  a  circular  frame  is  a  large 
numeral  expressing  the  denomination. 
The  upper  half  of  the  circular  frame 
carries  the  denomination  in  words 
which  are  repeated  in  the  lower  half, 
except  that  the  words  expressing  the 
denomination  appear  but  once  upon  the 
25-cent  stamp.  Sm.all  numeral.s  of  value 
are  on  both  sides  of  the  large  central 
number.

cities,  who  are  familiar  with  the  coun- 
tenances of  criminals  of  their  local- 
ity. 

Gen.  %Vood  PlnnulnK  I'arade. 

Maj.-tJen.  Leonard  Wood,  chief  of 
staff  who  has  just  been  named  as  dilet 
nuushal  of  the  approaihini?  inauKural 
parade,  has  begun  to  outline  his  plans 
fur  a  military,  naval  and  civic  dem- 
onstration. 

Tlie  selection  of  Gen.  Wood  to  un- 
dertake this  task  is  In  line  with  the 
precedent  which,  for  the  last  several 
administrations,  had  led  to  the  selec- 
tion of  the  senior  army  officer  on  the 
active  list  In  Washington,  regardless 
of  political  affiliation.  Thus  it  hap- 
pened that  the  military  features  of 
{•resident  Taffs  inauguration  were  in 
charge  of  Mai. -Gen.  J.  Franklin  Bell, 
while  th*?  late  I.iout.-r.en.  Henry  C. 
Corbln  performed  a  similar  function 
at  the  inauguration  of  Theodore  Iloose- 
velt.  ,       ., 

Oen.  Wood's  purpose  is  to  make  the 
Wilson  inaugural  parade  as  well  bal- 
anced as  possible  in  the  matter  of  the 
representation  of  the  cavalry,  infantry 
and  artillerv  of  the  army,  the  blue- 
jackets and  marines  of  the  navy,  and 
adequate  and  liberal  representation  of 
the  National  Guard  and  a  well  propor- 
tioned civil  display. 

nilUtia  to  T«ke  Part. 
Consultations  have  begun  between 
Cen.  Wood  and  the  ranking  officers  oi 
the  army  and  navy  now  in  Washing- 
ton, and  correspondence  has  been  in- 
stituted between  the  chief  marshal  and 
the  governors  and  adjutants  general  of 
the  various  states  and  territories  in 
regard  to  the  participation  of  the  mi- 
litia  in    the    inauguration. 

One  of  the  features  of  the  plan  is  to 
gather  in  Washington  several  thou- 
sand troops  from  the  various  army 
posts,  probably  as  far  west  as  Chicago 
and  south  to  Atlanta,  as  well  as  the 
entire  cadet  corps  and  midshipmen 
battalion  from  their  respective  acade- 
tnies. 

This  will  involve  the  war  depart- 
ment in  considerable  expense  on  ac- 
count of  transportation,  and  as  that 
particular  appropriation  has  been 
greatly  reduced  owing  to  recent  ex- 
tensive changes  of  stations  of  officers 
and  troops,  it  may  be  necessary  to  ap- 
ply to  congress,  immediately  upon  its 
reconvening  next  week,  for  a  deficien- 
cy  appropriation.

ROSIN  iS  SEEN 

IN  THE  EAST  END 


For  several  morning  past  people  liv- 
ing in  the  vicinity  of  Eighteenth  ave- 
nue east  and   Fourth  street  have  heard 

a  robin  singing  in  the  morning,  and 
several  of  them  have  caught  sight  of 
the  bird  industriously  trying  to  makt- 
a  breakfast  from  the  frost-bitten 
mountain   ash  berries. 

Tiie  robin  is  evidently  a  stray  bird 
that  was  left  behind  when  the  flocks 
went  south  earlier  in  the  fall.  Bird 
lovers  who  have  seen  him  are  hoping 
that  he  will  head  for  the  South  before 
the    below    zero    weather    comes.

ADMIRAL  DEWEY 

75  YEARS  OLD. 

Washington,  Dec.  27 — Admiral  George 
Dewey,  hero  of  the  Battle  of  Manila, 
yesterday  celebrated  his  seventy-fifth 
birthday.  The  veteran  sea  fighter  said 
that  he  never  felt  better  in  his  life, 
and  friends  who  called  to  congratulate 
him  on  the  anniversary  of  his  birth- 
day declared  that  he  looked  "like  an 
ensign."  The  admiral  attributed  his 
splendid  physical  condition  to  constant 
riding  and  to  the  further  fact  that  he 
keeps  away  from  midnight  banquets. 
He  said  that  he  abandoned  attending 
banquets  long  ago,  "So  should  anv 
man,"  he  declared,  "who  wants  to  feel 
as  young  as  I  do   when   he  is   75." 

Admiral  Dewey  spent  a  few  hours  at 
his   office   as  president   of   the    general  1 
board  of  the  navy.     Later  he  went  for  I 
a    drive    with    Mrs    Dewey    and    an    in- j 
formal  family  dinner  was  served  at  the

i?outh  Atlantic  and  Gulf  ports  by  the 
opening  of  the   Panama  canal,   said: 

"It  is  the  hope  of  those  who  partici- 
pated in  the  foitnatlon  of  this  organ- 
ization that  It  may  prove  to  be  an  ef- 
ficient agency  for  co-operation  with 
manufacturers  and  merchants  through- 
out the  Southeastern  states  and  with 
all  of  the  South  Atlantic  and  Gulf 
ports  for  the  building  up  of  a  large 
and  profitable  business  with  the  Latin- 
American    countries. 

"The  people  of  those  countries  pro- 
duce large  quantities  of  commodities 
consumed  in  the  United  States  and 
are  constantly  buying  increased  quan- 
tities of  commodities  that  can  success- 
fully be  produced  in  the  Southeastern 
states. 

"As  illustrating  the  fact  that  this 
traffic  can  successfully  be  moved 
through  Southern  ports.  I  may  men- 
tion that  there  are  now  regular  steam- 
ship sailings  from  the  port  of  Mobile 
to  Montevideo  and  Buenos  Ayres  and 
that  these  vessels  carry  full  cargoes 
on  each  trip.  At  present  these  ves- 
sels carry  return  cargoes  from  South 
America  to  the  North  Atlantic  ports, 
but  efforts  are  being  made  to  develop 
the  handling  of  return  cargoes  through 
Mobile.  It  Is  expected  that  this  serv- 
ice will  be  expanded  to  cover  the  prin- 
cipal Pacific  coast  ports  of  Central 
and  South  America  as  soon  as  the 
Panama   canal   has  been   completed. 

"The  possibilities  for  the  develop- 
ment of  trade  with  the  Latin-Ameri- 
can countries  are  so  great  as  to  open 
opportunities  to  other  Southern  ports 
as  well  as  to  Mobile,  and  it  is  the 
purpse  of  the  Southern  Panama  Canal 
conference  and  the  railways  I  have  the 
honor  to  represent  to  be  helpful  as  far 
as  practicable  in  the  building  up  of 
this    business."

pheum  theater  party.  The  men  will

ritory and  of  generally  encouraging 
business  conditions.  The  big  crop  In 
the    Northwest      this      year    has    made 


monev  plentiful  and  the  country  mer- 
chants are  placing  generous  orders  for 
next  year's  trade.  Improvements  in 
service  and  rates  have  bettered  Du- 
luth's position  in  the  Northwest  ter- 
ritorv  and  every  wholesale  house  in 
the  i-itv  Increased  its  business  and  is 
looking  forward  to  greater  increases 
next  year.

One  attraction  that  hardly  requires 
an  Introduction  to  the  Duluth  play- 
goers is  William  A.  Brady's  "'Bought 
and  Paid  For,"  which  has  been  booked 
for  a  special  return  engagement  at  the 
Lo'ceum  theater  for  three  days  begin- 
ning Monday,  Dec.  30,  with  a  special 
matinee  on  New  Year's  day.  Tlie  play 
was  seen.heae  in  September  and  was 
the  talk  of  the  town.  Since  it  was 
last  seen  here  the  play  was  presented 
at  the  Playhouse,  Chicago,  and  is  at 
present  enjoying  its  twelfth  consecu- 
tive week,  and  judging  from  all  indi- 
cations, it  will  remain  In  the  Windy 
City  for  a  solid  year  as  It  did  at  the 
Playhouse,  New  York  city.  The  story 
of  this  Broadhurst  success  is  an  un- 
usual one,  and  while  It  Involves  four 
chai-acters.  It  Is  most  charming  from 
the  rise  of  the  curtain  until  the  final 
speech.  The  cast  is  a  perfect  one,  and 
the  production  is  one  of  elaborate  in- 
vestiture. •  " 
•      *      • 

There  are  no  more  popular  perform- 
ers on  the  Orpheum  circuit  than  Mr. 
and  Mrs.  .lack  McGreevy,  who  are  ap- 
pearing on  this  week's  bill  with  their 
amusing  sketch,  "The  Village  Fiddler 
and  the  Country  Maid."  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
McGreevy  have  the  reputation  of  al- 
ways "having  a  good  word"  for  the 
other  performers,  and  the  result  is  that 
they  are  among  the  best-liked  per- 
formers on  the  circuit.  While  on  the 
stage  Mr.  McGreevy  appears  to  be  about 
80  years  of  age.  but  he  is  still  In  the 
prime  of  life.  He  has  a  reputation  of 
being  a  quiet  humorist,  and  has  fallen 
into  the  habit  of  using  the  country 
dialect  and  mannerisms  oft  the  stage 
as  well  as  on.  He  dresses  very  plain- 
ly and  It  is  not  difficult  for  him  to 
Impersonate  the  'Rube"  at  a  moment's 
notice.  Other  performers  tell  many 
amusing  experiences  McGreevy  has  had 
as  a  result  of  his  habit  ot  continuing  In 
his  role  of  farmer  after  he  leaves  the 
stage,  and  say  haJias  been  tried  out  by 
more  confldenceHnen  than  any  other 
living  person,  ^o  d«ite,  however,  he 
has  proved  rath*'  sXVrx  picking  for  the 
confidence  men,  fandi  the  laughs  have 
been  entirely  on  lUie  i^ther  side.

Bill  Drafted  for  Wisconsin 

Legislature   Would 

Change  Law. 

Madison.  Wis.,  Dec.  27. — A  new  ap- 
plication of  the  recall  will  be  attempt- 
ed at  the  coming  session  ot  the  Wis- 
consin legislature.  Heretofore  such  a 
law  has  been  proposed  as  applying  to 
elective  officials.  A  bill  will  be  pro- 
posed which  will  apply  the  recall  fea- 
ture to  all  Important  appointive  of- 
ficials, especially  the  members  of  the 
railroad.  Industrial  and  tax  commis- 
sions. 

As  now  drafted,  the  bill  will  permit 
a  recall  of  the  appointive  officials 
either  by  the  legislature  cr  by  the 
people  direct.  It  is  proposed,  that  upon 
a  petition  of  25  per  cent  of  the  num- 
ber of  voters  -vrYio  voted  at  the  last 
gubernatorial  election,  the  question  of 
the  recall  of  the  official  designated 
must  be  submitted  to  a  vote  of  all  the 
people  of  the  state  at  a  special  elec- 
tion. An  official  may  also  be  recalled 
by  the  legislature  upon  a  two-thirds 
vole  of  both   houses  voting  sepai-ately. 

In  order  that  the  recall  may  not  be 
abused  as  applying  to  the  appointive 
officials.  It  Is  proposed  in  the  bill 
which  win  come  before  the  legislature 
th&t   the   recall   can   be   applied    to    the 


same    official    only    once   in   every    two 
years.

four  daughters  and  a  widow  survive 
the  dead  man.

west  coast  of  England  Thursday  aft- 
ernoon. Twenty-seven  of  a  crew  of 
twenty-eight  men  had  a  thrilling  es- 
cape;   the    other   was    drowned. 

The  vessel  was  buffeted  bj'  fierce 
gales,  from  Christmas  morning.  The 
captain  found  himself  in  a  perilous  po- 
sition, and  unable  to  get  out  of  the 
bay,  and  determined  to  run  ashore. 
The  beach  was  lined  with  spectators, 
powerless  to  lend  aid.  who  watched 
the  vessel  almost  helpless  in  the  grip 
of  the  wind  and  tide. 

Finally  the  steamer's  nose  was 
pointed  shoreward  and  she  drove  In 
under  full  steam,  running  deep  into 
the  sandy  bottom.  A  life  rope  was 
rigged,  to  one  end  of  which  the  crowds 
ashore  clung,  and  one  by  one  the  crew 
left  the  vessel,  over  which  huge  waves 
were  breaking.  One  of  the  men  was 
carried   off  by  a  heavy  comber.

WILL  BUILD 
NEW  ORE  DOCK 


Missabe  Road  Plans  Largest 

Structure  of  Its  Kind 

in  the  World. 


Way  Cut  Through  Ball  Park 

— Team  Owners  Have 

Lease. 


Sometime  during  1914,  there  will  be 
completed  for  the  Duluth,  Missabe  & 
Nortliern  road  the  largest  ore  dock  In 
the  world.  It  will  be  Dock  No.  5,  and 
will  be  built  just  to  the  west  of  dock 
Xo.  4  at  Oneota.  If  the  timber  can  be 
obtained,  the  piles  will  be  driven  dur- 
ing the  current  winter  and  in  the 
.spring  the  concrete  work  will  be 
put   in. 

The  dock  will  be  constructed  of 
concrete  and  steel,  but  the  steel  will 
not  be  obtainable  before  the  third 
iiuarter  of  1013,  and  tlieiefore  progress 
on  the  building  of  the  structure  will 
be  slow.  The  total  cost  of  the  dock 
will  be  in  the  neishboihood  of  $2,750,- 
000.  The  affair  will  be  of  the  very 
latest  modern  construction  and  will  be 
operated  by  electricity.  The  only  wood 
in  the  make-vp  of  the  structure,  be- 
sides the  piles  to  be  used  will  be  the 
maple  flooring  of  the  storage  pockets. 

Until  now  it  has  been  undecided 
whether  or  not  to  build  this  dock.  The 
scarcity  of  steel  has  cut  quite  a  figure, 
for  it  is  hard  to  place  orders  with  any 
guarantee  of  delivery  at  any  specified 
time.  The  third  quarter  of  next  year 
is  positively  the  best  time  securable, 
and  it  is  not  even  certain  tliat  steel 
tan  be  delivered  then.  So  until  this 
time  It  has  been  problematical  as  to 
whether  or  not  a  start  would  be  made 
this  winter.  A  new  dock  has  become 
necessary  In  view  of  the  fact  that  the 
oldest  of  the  wooden  docks  would  have 
to  be  put  out  of  commission  In  1915  at 
any  rate,  so  It  was  decided  to  begin 
work  at  once. 

The  storage  capacity  of  the  new 
dock  will  be  115,000  gross  tons.  It  will 
have  3St  ore  pockets  of  each  300  tons 
storage  capacity.  The  dock  will  be 
2,300  feet  In  length  and  will  have  an 
approach  half  a  mile  in  length,  con- 
necting with  the  main  line  of  the  Mis- 
sabe road  on  the  one  side  of  the  hill 
between  Proctor  and  Oneota.  The  dock 
will  be  56  feet  In  width  and  80  feet 
high   from  the  water  surface. 

It  was  rumored  this  morning  that 
the  construction  of  the  new  dock 
would  mean  the  end  of  the  ball  park, 
close  at  liand,  as  it  was  said  that  the 
Missabe  road  has  purchased  it  for  the 
approach  to  the  new  dock.  This  was 
denied  by  President  H.  A.  Blume  of  the 
baseball  team.  Mr.  Blume  says  that  he 
has  a  five-year  lease,  dating  from  next 
March  on  the  property.

Plan  TtTo-Targret  Raase. 

Grafton,   N.  D.,   Dec.    27.— (Special   to 


The  Herald.) — ^A  two-target  range  will 

be  the   new   treat  for  members   of  the 

local  militia  organization.    The   target 

has  just  arrived  from  Rock  Island  and 
win  be  placed  In  position  at  the  com- 
pany's range  at  Oakwood.  It  will  give 
the  riflemen  a  much  better  opportu-

GUM  TESTS  VERACITY. 


Judge  Carpenter   Says   Slow  Chew- 
ers  Are  More  Reliable. 

Chicago,  Dec.  27. — United  .States  Dis- 
trict Judge  Carpenter  has  revealed  one 


method  he  has  of  judging  whether  a 
person  is  testifying  truthfully.  If  the 
witness  chews  gum  and  talks  rapidly, 
the  chances  are  no  great  weight  should 
be  attached  to  his  statements,  the 
judge  said.  The  slower  he  chews,  the 
more  weight  can  be  placed  on  his  tes- 
timony. For  instance,  a  witness  with 
a    ten-strokes    a   minute    jaw,    is    more  ' 


trustworthy    than    a    twenty-stroker. 

All  of  this  developed  when  the  court 

told  Joseph  Burns,  a  witness,  to  cease 

chewing    gum     while     on    the    witness 
stand. 

'The  harder,  a  person  chews  gum, 
the  less  respons  bility  you  can  place 
in  his   testimony, '  the  court  said.

ST.    LOUIS  COUNTY'S  LARGE  AND

to  call  tlic  ;ittcntion  of  the  rest  of  the 
flate  t"  ilu-  part  St.  Louis  county

paid  into  the  state  treasury  in  state 
taxes  during  the  calendar  year  just

of  $3.fH^<i.07J.oi. 

So  the  not  direct  state  tax  amounted 
only  to  $1. 01  S.7 12.64. 

But  l'a'.-.'.i  counties  paid  into  the 
state  treasury  $!.8o_',534-50  more  than 
they   got   back. 

That  means  that  the  other  seventy- 
five  counties  got  back  from  the  state 
$783.8ji.86  more  than  they  paid  in. 

In  other  words,  only  eleven  coun- 
ties out  oi  eighty-six  really  pay  any 
slate  taxes  at  all.  The  others  get 
more  from  the  state  by  far  than  they 
pay   into  it. 

But  we  wish  to  analyze  these  fig- 
ures a  little  further,  if  our  Minne- 
sota friends  will  bear  with  us  so  long. 
Of  the  eleven  counties  which  really 
pay  any  state  tax  at  all,  four  of  them 
—Cook.  Lake.  Itasca  and  St.  Louis — 
arc  in   Northeastern   Minnesota. 

And  of  tlie  eleven,  St.  Louis  county 
alone  paid  into  the  state  treasury 
$f 75,890.1 1  more  than  it  got  back- 
more  than  the  entire  surplus  paid  to 
the  seventy-five  counties  which  get 
more  tiian  they  paj'. 

St.  Louis  county  this  year  has  paid 
into  the  state  treasury  in  direct  state 
taxes  $1,105,481.05,  and  has  received 
buck  ffMr-i  the  state  only  $J-'9.5<)0-94. 
Xor  dc.  ihc-e  figures  begin  to  tell 
the  full  story.  The  state's  other  large 
source  of  revenue  is  the  railroad  gross 
earnings  tax,  from  which  it  received 
nearly  $4.«X)0.ooo  this  year.  Of  this 
total,  about  one-third  came  from  St. 
Louis  county,  the  greater  part  of  it 
provided  by  the  earnings  of  the  three 
ore-carrying  railroads.  And  the  move 
to  inorc.iso  this  tax  was  originated  in 
St.  L.  uis  county  by  The  Herald. 

St.  Louis  county  isn't  complaining. 
It  isn't  even  boasting.  It  is  glad  it  is 
able  10  contribute  so  much  to  the  up- 
keep and  upbuilding  of  the  state. 

(Inly  it  wishes  sometimes  that  those 
who  l<.ok  upon  St.  Louis  county  as  a 
kind  of  outland,  and  its  people  as 
cutlandcrs,  would  stop  to  think  what 
a  hole  it  would  make  in  the  state's 
revenues  if  St.  Louis  county  should 
slide    .  !i    into   Lake   Superior.

ing.  It  leaves  many  voters  in  doubt, 
and  the  natural  thing — the  right 
thing,  too, — in  that  case  is  to  vote 
"No"  on  all  the  measures. 

Seven  propositions  were  submitted 
to  the  people  of  Minnesota  at  the  last 
election,  and  all  but  two  of  them 
were  defeated,  though  several  of  the 
defeated  amendments  should  have 
been  adopted. 

Since  the  initiative  became  a  part 
of  the  Constitution  of  Missouri,  four 
years  ago,  twenty  proposed  constitu- 
tional amendments  have  been  sub- 
mitted, and  all  of  them  have  been  de- 
feated, the  good  along  with  the  bad. 

The  ideal  working  of  the  initiative 
and    the    referendum    is    not    to    have 
them    working    at    all — because    they 
are    not    needed.     They   are   not    de- 
sired nor  desirable  as  a  substitute  for 
legislative  action,  but  as  "the  gun  be- 
hind the  door"  to  use  in  forcing  the 
legislature  to  do  its  full  duty.     With 
the   initiative   and   the   referendum   in 
eflfect,    the    ideal   condition   would    be 
to  have  them  so  eflfective  that  what- 
ever    the     state     really     needed     and 
wanted  the  legislature  would  provide, 
knowing  that  if  it  did  not  the  people 
would   rebuke    it    by   the   use    of   the  j 
initiative;  and  that  whenever  a  meas- 1 
ure    was    proposed    that    was    against  j 
the  people's  interests   the   legislature 
would    reject    it,   knowing    that    if    it 
adopted   it    the   people   would   rebuke 
it  by  the  use  of  the  referendum. 

What  is  really  needed  is  a  system 
of  direct  legislation  not  so  compli- 
cated by  requirements  that  it  is  prac- 
tically impossible  to  invc>ke  it,  nor  so 
loose  that  almost  anybody  can  in- 
voke it  for  almost  any  purpose,  and  j 
thus  load  the  ballot  down  with  more 
or  less  frivolous  proposals. 

What  is  needed  is  not  a  substitute  | 
for  the  legislature,  but  a  check  upon 
the    legislature — one    that    is    work- 
able, but  not  a  plaything. 


on  a  charge  so  terrible,  with  flimsy 
evidence  and  on  prejudice  and  sus- 
picion. 

If  any  of  these  men  are  guilty — 
and  there  seems  to  be  little  doubt 
that  some  of  them  are  guilty— they 
should  be  convicted  and  the  court 
should    impose    extreme    sentences. 

If  any  of  them  are  innocent  they 
should  go  free,  their  names  cleared 
of  suspicion.  • 

These  crimes  were  committed  by 
somebody  in  the  name  of  organized 
labor.  Manifestly,  this  is  a  sort  of 
thing  labor  cannot  afford  to  condone, 
and  effective  justice  in  this  case  is 
demanded  by  labor's  interests  as  well 
as   by   the    interests   of  justice. 

Those  twelve  men  in  Indianapolis 
have  a  heavy  responsibility,  and  the 
country's  prayer  will  be  that  they 
may  be  guided  to  decide  with  exact 
justice.

OVERLOADING  THE  BALLOT. 

If  we  do  say  it  ourselves,  direct  leg- 
islation has  no  firmer  or  more  con- 
sistent advocate  than  The  Herald. 

And  it  is  because  it  is  a  friend  of 
the  initiative  and  the  referendum  that 
ii  counsels,  in  the  beginning  at  least, 
against  the  adoption  of  a  direct  legis- 
lation system  that  can  be  too  easily 
invoked. 

It  should  he  said,  in  this  connec- 
tion, that  The  Herald  is  even  more 
decidedly  against  a  system  that  is  so 
hard  to  invoke  that  it  will  be  of  little 
real  \alue  to  the  people. 

The    re«iuirement    of    a    reasonably 
large  percentage  of  the  voters  to  in- 
voke cither  the   initiative  or  the   ref- 
erendum, dixided  among  a  reasonable 
proportion   of  the  counties,  is  essen- 
tial in  the  first  place  because  in  order 
to  get  a  measure  out  of  the  hands  of 
the  legislature  and  before  the  people 
there    should    be    an    assurance    that 
there  is  a  real  public  demand  for  it. 
A    plan    by    which    three    or    five    per 
cent    of    the    voters,    signed    up    in    a 
small  geographical  area,  could  invoke 
cither   the    initiative    or   the    referen- 
dum, gives  no  such  assurance. 

The  danger  of  a  system  too  easily 
worked  is  two-fold:  It  overloads  the 
ballot,  lessening  the  probability  that 
really  important  measures  will  have 
the  full  consideration  they  deserve; 
and  it  tends  to  bring  direct  legisla- 
tion into  disrepute  by  making  it  a 
nuisance. 

When   the   ballot   is   overloaded   by 
many  measures,  the  effect  is  confus- 


HAAKON  TO  RESIGN? 

That's  an  interesting  report  which 
comes  by  way  of  London  that  Haak- 
on, king  of  Norway,  contemplates" 
abandoning  his  job  and  retiring  with 
his  family  to  England. 

Somehow,  to  those  of  us  of  Minne- 
sota who  know  the  independent  and 
liberty-loving  character  of  the  Nor- 
wegians, it  seems  out  of  place  for 
them  to  be  supporting  a  king,  even 
if  they  have  stripped  him  of  all  really 
regal  authority. 

And  judging  by  what  we  hear  of 
the  relations  between  the  royal  house 
of  Norway  and  the  Norwegian  peo- 
ple, it's  about  time  for  a  divorce. 

Here    are    a    Danish    king    and    an 
English  queen,  reigning,  so  to  speak, 
over  a   Norwegian  people    eminently 
fitted    for    self-government.      Indeed, 
they  are  self-governing  now;  for  the 
king   has   little   power  and   his   court  j 
little   majesty.     The  king,   it   is   said,  j 
seems   to   prefer    living    in    England  :| 
while  Maud,  Norway's  English  queen, 
not    only   prefers    living    in    England 
but  does  live  there  a  good  deal,  and 
has  refused  to  learn  the  poetic  Norsk 
tongue. 

The  storthing  seems  inclined  to  re- 
move what   little   semblance   of   regal 
majesty     there     is     surrounding     the  ^ 
kingship,  and  it  is  this  tendency  which  j 
has  led  to  the  report  that  Haakon  has  t 
about  decided  to  throw  up  his  job  and 
move  to  England. 

There  will  be  little  change,  and  few 
regrets,  we  should  imagine,  if  this 
happens.  The  kingship  in  Norway 
is  as  hollow  a  semblance  of  ancient 
royalty  as  there  is  in  Europe — hollow- 
er,  even,  than  that  of  England,  which 
is  all  form  and  no  substance.  The 
Norwegian  people  are  abundantly 
capable  of  getting  along  without  a 
king,  and  they  have  kept  one  more  as 
a  matter  of  show  and  form  than  any- 
thing else. 

We  have  an  idea  that  if  Haakon 
leaves,  the  Norwegians  won't  bother 
about  hiring  another  king,  but  will 
worry  along  with  a  republic.  That 
would  be  like  them,  as  we  have  come 
to  know  them  as  friends  and  neigh- 
bors in   Minnesota.

What  shall  we  say,  as  lovers  of 
peace,  in  face  of  the  Balkan  war?  Is 
It  true  lliat  while  Serbs  are  Serbs, 
and  Greeks  are  Greeks,  and  Turks 
are  Turks,  "needs  that  offense  must 
come?"'  Is  it  not  true  that  while  Turks 
rule  aliens  for  the  money  to  be  ex- 
torted there  can  be  no  peace  between 
them  and  their  subjects  or  their 
neighbors? 

It  is  not  necessary  for  us  to  answer 
these  questions.  They  belong  to  his- 
tory rather  than  to  morals.  The 
progress  of  events  will  take  our  an- 
swer from  our  lips.  The  problem 
comes  to  us  too  late  for  any  act  of 
ours  to  be  effective.  The  stage  was 
set,  the  actors  chosen,  long  before 
our  day  and  generation.  Our  part  Is 
to  strive  for  peace;  first,  to  do  away 
with  causes  for  war;  second,  to  lead 
people  to  look  to  war  as  the  last  and 
not  the  first  remedy  for  national 
wrongs  or  national  disagreements. 
Most  wars  have  their  origin  In  the 
evil  passions  of  men,  and  no  war  could 
take  place  If  both  sides  were  sincerely 
desirous   of  honorable  peace. 

No  doubt  the  Balkan  situation  could 
have  been  controlled  for  peace  by  the 
"concert  of  powers"  In  Europe,  were 
It  not  that  no  such  concert  exists.  The 
Instruments  are  out  of  tune  and  time. 
So  long  as  foreign  offices  are  alike 
controlled  by  the  interests  of  great 
exploiting  and  competing  corporations, 
they  can  never  stand  for  good  morals 
and  good  order.  If  they  could,  the 
Turkish  rule  of  violence  would  have 
ceased  long  ago. 

Those  who  fight  against  war  cannot 
expect  to  do  away  with  It  in  a  year, 
or  a  century,  especially  when  It  Is 
urged  on  by  600  years  of  crime  and 
discord.  The  roots  of  the  Balkan 
struggle  lie  back  in  the  Middle  Ages, 
and  along  mediaeval  lines  the  fight 
Is  likely  to  be  conducted.  "The  right 
to  rule  without  the  duty  to  protect"  Is 
the  bane  of  all  Oriental  imperialism. 
Meanwhile  our  own  task  is  to  help  to 
modernize  the  life  of  the  world;  to 
raise,  through  democracy,  the  estimate 
of  the  value  of  men's  lives:  to  continue 
through  our  day  the  enduring  revolt  of 
civilization  against  "obsolete  forms  of 
servitude,   tyranny   and   waste." 

The  immediate  purpose  of  the  peace 
movement    is    through    public    opinion 
and    through    International   law    to    ex- 
alt   order    above   violence   and    to    take 
war  out  of  the  foreground   of  the   "in- 
ternational  mind"   in   the   event   of  dis- 
putes   between    races    and    nations.    No 
movement   forward   can   succeed   all  at 
once.    Evil    habit    and    false    education 
have    left    the    Idea    of    war    and    glory 
too  deeply  ingrained.  Men,  law-abiding 
and  patient,  willing  to  hear  both  sides, 
have    never   yet   been    In    the   majority. 
Yet    their   influence    steadily    grows    in 
weight.    The    influence    of    science    and 
arts,     of     international     fellowship,      of 
common  business  Interests,  small  busi- 
ness  as    well    as   great.    Is   leading   the 
people  of  the  world  to  better  and  bet- 
ter understanding.  Left  alone,  civilized 
people    would    never    make    war.    They 
have   no   outside   grievances    they  wish 
to  submit  to  the  arbitrament  of  whole- 
sale   murder.    To    make    them    prepare 
for  war  they   must  be   scared,   not  led. 
Were    It    not    for    the    exaggeration    by 
Interested    parties    of    trade    jealousies 
and    diplomatic    intrigues,    few    people 
would  ever  think  of  going  to  war.  The 
workingmen     of    Europe    suffer      from 
tax-exhaustion.  The  fear  of  war  is  kept 
before   them  to  divert  them  from   their 
own   sad    plight.   This   diversion  leaves 
their  plight  still  the  sadder. 

The  bread  riot  in  all  its  phases  la 
the  sign  of  over-taxation,  of  govern- 
mental disregard  of  the  lives  and  earn- 
ings of  the  common  man.  Anarchism  Is 
the  expression  the  i<lle  and  reckless 
give  to  the  feelings  of  those  who  are 
still   law-abiding. 

The  peace  movement  must  stand 
against  oppression  and  waste.  It  must 
do  Its  part  in  removing  grievances,  na- 
tional .ind  International.  It  must  give 
its  counsel  in  favor  of  peace  and  or- 
der and  't  must  help  to  educate  men 
to  believe  that  the  nation  which 
guarantees  to  Its  young  men  personal 
ju.siicc  r-nd  pers-^nal  opportunity  has  a 
greater  glory  than  that  whU  h  sends 
forth    its    youth    to    slaughter.

Convention   I«   Needed. 

Fairmont  Sentinel:  The  Duluth  Her- 
aid  presents  a  strong  case  In  favor  of 
a.  new  Constitution  for  Minnesota. 

Efforts  to  revise  the  Constitution  on 
tlie  Installment  plan  have  been  only 
partially  successful.  Some  of  th« 
amendments  most  needed  have  been 
rejected,  while  some  of  these  adopted 
are  of  questionable  merit.  It  is  a 
waste  of  time  and  money  to  try  to  per- 
fect the  old  garment  with  patches. 

The  fact  Is,  Minnesota  has  outgrown 
Its  Con.stltution.  Minnesota's  needs  are 
her  opportunities.  Artificial  barriers 
should  not  be  permitted  to  retard  the 
state's  growth. 

Advancement  should  not  languish  for 
want  of  an  adequate  organic  law, 

Minnesota  has  the  talent  and  patri- 
otism and  vision  for  drafting  a  new 
Constitution.  It  should  be  done  at  the 
comli.g  session  of  the  legislature. 


Xo  C^oai  Famine. 

Ada  Herald:  Owing  to  the  long  open 
8ea.son  on  the  Great  Lakes  it  is 
thought  that  the  coal  shortage  will  not 
be  as  great  as  feared  at  first.  In  two 
days  twenty-two  boats  containing  hard 
coal  arrived  at  the  Duluth  harbor.  At 
the  beginning  of  the  season  the  short- 
age at  Duluth  was  estimated  at  500,000 
tons,  but  late  shipments  have  greatly 
reduced  this.  The  mild  weather  has 
been  a  great  fuel  saver  and  It  Is  hoped 
that  the  Northwest  will  not  suffer 
from  a  coal  famine  this  winter. 

In  That  Itf 

Grand  Marals  News-Herald:  The

ernment under  the  new  form.

tells    about    It. 

The  weather  was  bad  the  morning 
after  the  visitor  got  there  and  he  de- 
cided to  stay  another  night.  It  looked 
a  trifle  threatenini?  the  next  day  and 
the  minister  said  he  thought  Trovl- 
dence  had  lntend<fd  that  he  remain 
there  in  their  hospitable  midst  for  one 
more  night.  So  that  evening  when  they 
held  family  prayer,  the  host  offered 
this    supplication: 

"Oh.  Lord,  we  pray  Thee  that  we 
may  have  a  bright  and  propitious  day 
tomorrow  that  the  good  brother  may 
continue  his  Journey."

Ben  Johnson  tells  still  another  one 
about  a  preacher.  This  one  was  col- 
ored. He  got  Into  embarras.sment  in 
the  little  Kentucky  town,  where  he 
had  been  living,  in  consequence  of 
some  chicken  thefts  that  led  to  a  war- 
rant being  made  out  for  his  arrest.  He 
beat  It  away  from  there  and  went  to 
a  village  In  Johnson's  district,  where 
he  got  a  temporary  pulpit.  Just  as  he 
was  about  to  anncunce  his  text  on  the 
day  of  his  initial  address  there  he  saw 
a  man  in  the  rear  of  the  church  whom 
he  thought  he  recognized  as  an  officer 
of    the    town    he    had    recently    left. 

He  hesitated  a  moment,  but  said  to 
the    congregation: 

"Brothers  and  sisters — I  had  calc- 
lated  to  talk  to  y'all  this  mawnin'  'bout 
th'  resurrection,  but  since  stepping  In- 
to the  pulpit  I  done  decided  to  preach 
from  the  Fo'th,  chaptah  of  Hezeklah: 
•If  thou  seest  me  f  nd  think  thou  know- 
est  me,  say  nothing;  and  verily  I  will 

see    you    later.' "

Misfit  Constltntton. 

Thief  River  Falls  Times:  The  Du- 
luth Herald's  recent  arguments  In  fa- 
vor of  a  constitutional  convention  to 
consider  the  feasibility  of  creating  a 
new  Constitution  for  the  state  of  Min- 
nesota is  sure  a  good  one.  This  grand 
old  state  of  ours  has  worried  along  for 
some  time  now  with  a  code  of  rules 
and  regulations  that  is  terribly  misfit. 
Any  attempt  to  bring  these  rules  and 
regulations  up  to  date  seems,  with  one 
or  two  exceptions,  to  fail.  As  The 
Herald  says,  (although  not  in  exactly 
the  same  words),  "the  old  coat  is  be- 
yond repair,  so  let's  get  a  new  one." 
Here's  hoping  The  Herald  is  as  suc- 
cessful in  its  attempt  to  get  a  new 
Constitution  for  the  state  as  it  was  in 
securing  the  commission  form  of  gov- 
ernment for  Duluth. 

A  Real  PMIantbroplat. 

Fairmont  Sentinel:  Duluth  has  a 
philanthropist  whose  name  is  known 
only  to  the  recording  angel.  On  Christ- 
mas eve  of  every  year  he  buys  and 
pays  for  every  copy  of  The  Duluth 
Herald  sold  or  delivered  in  that  city 
by  newsboys  and  carriers,  so  that  the 
receipts  of  that  day  are  all  velvet.  The 
donor  makes  it  a  condition  of  the  gift 
that  his  name  shall  never  be  made 
public.  He  evidently  appreciates  the 
fact  that  the  best  way  to  be  good  to 
himself  Is  to  do  It  to  others. 


Agreed  Willi  Tbe  Herald. 

Cannon  Falls  Beacon:  We  agree 
with  The  Duluth  Herald  that  a  constl- 
tlonal  convention  would  be  the  proper 
thing  for  Minnesota.  The  old  one  has 
done  good  service  in  its  day,  but  it  is 
considerably  worn  and  very  much  an- 
tiquated and  out  of  date. 


A  JURY'S  GREAT  TASK. 

The  twelve  men  in  Indianapolis 
who  are  to  decide  the  dynamiting 
cases  against  the  iron  workers  have 
a  high  responsibility,  and  no  one  will 
covet  their  task. 

The  evidence  in,  the  arguments 
made,  and  the  court's  charge  deliv- 
ered, these  "twelve  men  good  and 
true"'  are  to  determine  the  guilt  or 
innocence  of  each  one  of  forty  de- 
fendants. 

It  is  more  than  usually  important 
that  a  right  decision  be  made  in  this 
case.  It  is  always  important  that 
guilty  men  be  convicted  and  innocent 
men  set  free;  but  it  is  peculiarly  vital 
in  this  case. 

It  should  not  be  possible  to  say  in 
this  country  that  men.  whatever  their 
purpose,  may  resort  to  the  cowardly 
methods  of  the  dynamiter  and  escape 
unwhipped   of  justice. 

Neither  should  it  be  possible  to  say 
that  innocent  men  may  be  convicted

Good  for  All  Cities. 

Bemldji  Sentinel:  Way  back,  many, 
many  months  ago.  The  Duluth  Herald, 
one  of  the  greatest  newspapers  in  the 
Northwest,  took  its  position  at  the 
head  of  the  procession  with  a  commis- 
sion form  of  government  banner. 

A  few  days  ago,  Duluth,  by  an  over- 
whelming vote,  decided  to  adopt  the 
commission  plan. 

It  was  a  victory  for  The  Herald  and, 
Judging  from  the  experience  in  other 
cities,  a  victory  for  the  citizens  of 
Duluth. 

The  new  idea  of  city  government  Is 
reducing  pubjic  affairs  to  business 
system.  It  means  a  no  gang,  no  spe- 
cial Interest  rule.  It  is  the  last  word 
in    self-government. 

It  has  been  suggested  that  Bemldji 
investigate  this  panacea  for  municipal 
Ills,  but  Bemidjl  has  failed  to  take  the 
matter  very  seriouslj'. 

If  the  new  way  is  a  good  way  for 
so  many  other  towns  and  looks  so 
good  to  the  Zenith  City  of  the  Unsalt- 
ed  Seas — and  the  North  is  proud  of  her 
Duluth — why  not  give  this  proposition 
painstaking   consideration    in    Bemldji? 


O.  K.  Davis,  erstwhile  war  corre- 
spondent and  newspaper  man  of  ripe 
experience,  was  greatly  perturbed  by 
the  shooting  of  Col.  Roosevelt  at  Mil- 
waukee. Few  of  the  traveling  corre- 
spondents for  various  big  papers  were 
in  the  auditorium  when  the  thing  hap- 
pened. As  soon  as  the  news  reached 
them  the  correspondents  "hastened  to 
the  scene,"  so  to  speak,  by  taxicabs, 
but  were  Informetl  by  cops  at  the  doors 
that  nobody  was  allowed  to  go  In.  So 
the  first  man  thty  thought  of  was  O. 
K.  Davis.  He  was  there  in  his  capac- 
ity as  publicity  man  for  the  Bull 
Moosers,  and  he,  with  his  vast  news- 
paper experience,  accustomed  to  hand- 
ling facts  under  stress  and  difficul- 
ties, could  tell  :he  whole  story  ac- 
curatelv,   quickly,    and   succinctly. 

"Tell  us  about  It,"  the  correspon- 
dents chorused  when  O.  K.  appeared. 

"Some  scoundrel  shot  the  colonel," 
blurted  Davis,  and  there  was  a  half 
sob    In    his    tone. 

"Yes,  but  the  particulars,"  shouted 
the    excited    correspondents. 

Davis  paused  to  clear  his  throat  and 
repeated: 

"Some  dirty  scoundrel  shot  the  col- 
onel!" And  he  blew^  his  nose  violently. 
"Here,  here,  come  out  of  it!"  shrieked 
the  representative  of  a  New  York  pa- 
per 'It's  10  o'clock  In  New  York  now 
and  the  first  thing  I  know  it'll  be  press 
time,"  said  the  writing  man.  "Just 
what  all  happened." 

Davis  tried  to  control  his  emotions 
and  finally  manJiged  to  say: 

"Some  scoundrel  shot  the  colonel. 
So  the  correspondents   formed  a  fly- 
ing wedge  and  s  loved  by  the  cops  into 
the    auditorium    to    get    the    story    by 

themselves.

The  day  after  Senator  Reed  of  Mis- 
souri took  his  seat  In  the  senate  an 
old  friend  pattec  him  on  the  back  and 
said: 

"Jim,  I'll  look  forward  now  to  your 
first  speech:  I  want  you  to  show  'em 
the  kind  of  oratory  we  raise  out  in 
Missouri." 

"Do  you  know."  remarked  Reod.  im 
not  so  sure  that  I'll  do  much  speaking. 
I  certainly  do  not  intend  to  make  a 
speech  until  I  have  something  to  say — 
not  just  for  the  sake  of  making  a 
speech,  you  und<»rstand.  On  the  other 
hand,  I  care  nothing  at  all  about  the 
custom  here  that  requires  a  new  mem- 
ber to  sit  and  look  on  for  the  first 
year  or  so.  It  may  be  that  as  time 
goes  on  I'll  feel  called  upon  to  make  a 
speech.  If  then'  seems  to  be  occasion 
for  me  to  do  so.  I  will." 

But    it   was   almost    two    days   and    a 
half    later     before     Reed       finally    got 
around  to  making  his  initial  speech.

American  Magazine:  When  a  digni- 
tary dies  the  papers  never  lose  a  chance 
to  say  thtit  he  split  rails,  or  sold  pa- 
pers, or  whacked  mules  along  a  tow- 
path  in  his  boyhood.  It  Is  right  to 
praise  the  fine  old  people  for  these 
things,  but  why  save  up  all  the  praise 
for  old  age  when  feelings  weaken  or 
for  a  tombstone  that  doesn't  interest 
the    subject    of    our    memoirs. 

Ralph  Whitfield  Chandless  lives  in 
Hasbrouck  Heights,  N.  J.,  a  commut- 
ers' town,  where  the  whole  male  pop- 
ulation mobilizes  dally  at  the  Erie 
station  like  a  regiment  of  soldier  ants. 
My  avocations  frequently  leading  me 
that  way,  I  used  to  notice  tbls  boy  at 
certain  hours,  sitting  In  a  board  shack 
west  of  the  station,  selling  newspapers. 
His  looks  and  manner  interested  me, 
and  I  observed  further  that  he  was  al- 
ways reading.  He  held  a  book  in  one 
hand  while  shoving  out  newspapers  and 
making  change  with  the  other.  Won- 
dering what  sort  of  literature  held  his 
fancy,  I  took  a  glimpse  one  day  and 
discovered  it  was  a  school  geometry. 
He  was  getting  up  his  lessons.  There- 
upon I  sought  his  acquaintance  and 
made   a   few    inquiries. 

Here  is  a  daily  schedule:  He  gets 
up  at  3:30  a.  m.,  and  walks  four  mile.s 
and  a  half  to  meet  the  paper-train  at 
Rutherford.  He  comes  back  to  Has- 
brouck Heights  on  the  first  trolley  at  6 
a.  m.  with  250  newspapers.  He  delivers 
about  half  of  these  at  residences  be- 
tween 5:30  and  7  a.  m.  Then  he  takes 
the  remainder  down  to  his  shack  at 
the  Erie  station  and  sells  to  the  com- 
muters until  the  last  early  train  goes 
In  at  8:50 — meanwhile  putting  the  fin- 
ishing touches  on  his  lessons.  Ten 
minutes  later  he  Is  at  school;  and  the 
re.«t  of  the  day  he  lives  the  regular 
life  of  a  schoolboy. 

Now,  this  young  merchant-student 
has  stood  at  the  head  of  his  class  every 
year  that  he  has  been  in  school.  He  did 
so  well  in  school  last  year  that  he  was 
exempted  from  his  examinations — not- 
withstanding his  fingers  and  toes  suf- 
fered all  the  year  from  frost-bite  In 
the  early  winter.  He  has  paid  for  his 
own  clothes  ever  since  he  was  six  years 
old.  He  has  a  checking  account  and 
a  savings  account  at  the  bank.  He 
pays  his  widowed  mother  four  dollars 
and    a   half   a    week    board. 

He  is  the  stuff  of  a  great  man,  an.l 
he  will  be  a  great  man.  Maybe  not  a 
celebrity.  It  takes  the  moment  as  well 
as   the  man   to  make  a   celebrity.

into  the  White  House  the  other  morn- 
ing to  see  Will  Taft.  Ushered  into  the 
presidents  offlo-s  at  the  same  time,  was 
Representative  Samuel  W.  Smith  of 
Michigan,  who  weighs  probably  ninety- 
three  pounds  when  clad  In  his  heavy 
ulster.  It  was  an  odd-looking  gather- 
ing  the    huge    president,    the    colossal 

Anthony  and  tho  diminutive  Smith.  An- 
thony plunged  at  once  Into  the  matter 
he  had  come  for — an  appointment  he 
wished  to  put  through.  He  talked  with 
much  earnestness  for  four  or  five  min- 
utes while  the  president  stared  up  at 
him  like  a  man  looking  for  a  pigeon 
on  top  of  the  Metropolitan  tower.  As 
he  came  to  his  peroration,  Anthony 
worded  his  sentences  with  extra  care, 
and  tried  to  ms.ke  every  phrase  count. 
He  was  within  sight  of  his  final  period 
when  the  president,  who  had  been  star- 
ing up  at  him  preoccupledly.  inter- 
rupted him  by  remarking.  Irrelevantly 
and  almost   in    ilarm: 

"Why.    Dan,    you're    hair's      actually 
getting   thin,    Ifn't   it?" 
(CopjTl«ht,  1812,  by  Kied  C.  Kdly.    All  rlghta  reserved.) 


LearatnK   to    S^Ttm. 

John  Muir,   in   the   Atlantic:   One  hot 
summer    day    fither    told    us    that    we 
ought  to  learn  to  swim.  This  was  one 
of    the     most      nterestlng     suggestions 
he  had  ever  offered,  but  precious  little 
time  was  allowed   for  trips  to  the  lake, 
and    he    seldom    tried   to    show    us   how. 
•Go   to   the   fro?s,"    he    said,   "and   they 
will  give  you  all  the  lessons  you  need. 
Watch  their  arms  and  legs  and  see  how 
smoothly    they    kick    themselves   along 
and     dive     and     come     up.     When     you 
want  to  dive,  keep  your  arms  by   your 
side  or  over  your  head,  and   kick,  and 
when    you   wart    to   come    up    let    your 
legs  drag  and  raddle  with  your  hands." 
We    found    a    little    basin    among   the 
rushes   at    the    south   end    of    the    lake, 
about    waist-d«ep    and    a    rod    or    two 
wide,    shaped     like    a    sun-flshs    nest. 
Here'  we  klcke<l  and  splashed  for  many 
a    lesson,    faithfully    trying    to    Imitate 
frogs,     but     the     smooth,     comfortable, 
sliding   gait  of    our   amphibious   teach- 
ers   seemed    hopelessly    hard    to    learn. 
When   we    tried    to    kick    frog   fashion, 
down   went   our  heads,   as   if   weighted 
with  lead,  the  moment  our  feet  left  the 
ground.    One   diy   it   occurred   to  me    to 
hold    my    breath    as    long    as    I    could 
and    let    my    head    sink    as    far    as    It 
liked  without  paying  any  attention   to 
It     and    try   to    swim    under    the    water 
instead  of  on  'he  surface.   This  method 
was   a   great   ituccess,    for   at    the   very 
first     trial     I     managed     to     cross     the 
basin     without     touching    bottom,    and 
soon     learned    the    use    of    my    limbs. 
Then    of    course,    swimming    with    my 
liead  above  wiiter  soon  became  so  easy 
that   It   seemed   perfectly   natural. 


The     Adventurous     Trade     of     Strike- 
Breaker. 

"The  employer  relies  on  a  new^  trade 
to  fight  his  battle,  the  trade  of  'strike- 
breaking,' "  says  Samuel  P.  Orth,  writ- 
ing on  'The  Battle  Line   of  Labor"   In 
the      World's      Work      for      December. 
"There     are     large     detective    agencies 
which    make    it   a    business    to    furnish 
'union  and  non-union  men  and  women 
of   all   trades   for   secret   service    work 
for    locating     disturbers,'     as     one     of 
them    advertises.    These    concerns    have 
reduced    strike-breaking    to    a   science. 
One    firm    advertises    guards    for    pro- 
tecting     property      and      life      during 
strikes   and   lockouts.   'These   men   are 
all   above   six    feet   in   height,   and  are 
selected     for     their     ability     to    handle 
this  class  of  work.'  And  again:  'Secret 
men    attend    all    meetings    and    report 
proceedings.   The  service  possesses  the 
necessary  equipment,  such  as  Winches- 
ter rifles,   police  clubs,  cots,   blankets, 
etc.,   to  handle  any  sized   trouble.'   The 
naive  frankness  of  this  circular  leaves 
little  for  the  Imagination   to  supply. 

"  'Where  do  you  get  your  strike- 
breakers?' I  asked  one  of  these  ex-' 
pert  9. 

"  'They  are  a  wandering  class.  Some 
have  a  past,  some  are  ex-union  men 
who  went  to  work  contrary  to  In- 
structions and  were  ostracized,  moved 
away  from  their  old  home,  and  are 
doing  this  as  a  sort  of  way  of  getting 
even  with  the  unions.  Most  of  them 
love  adventure  and,  when  the  danger 
is  over,  get  restive.  I  have  had  them 
come  to  me,  after  things*  got  quieted 
down  on  a  job,  and  ask,  'Say,  boss. 
ain't  there  some  place  where  there  is 
something  doing,  it's  too  church -like 
here.* 

"*rhey  get  their  fun  out  of  the 
danger,  are  used  to  guns  and  clubs, 
and   can   hit  hard  when   necessary."

pointed as  administrator  of  iin  Aus-

tined to  points  on  these  two  roads  has

TILTON  LEWIS,  Manager 


One  of  these  days  Mauritz  ITarrl.s  of 
Superior,  who  claims  the  lishtweight 
wrestling  title  of  the  Northwest,  and 
little  Loui.s  Zorbas.  the  Duluth  Greek 
wonder,  are  going  to  tangle  for  the 
ehampionship  of  the  Head  of  the 
Lakes. 

Little  "Louie"  is  willing,  even 
anxious  to  tangle  with  his  older  and 
more  experienced  opponent.  He  doesn't 
say  he  can  defeat  the  veteran  holder 
of  the  title  from  across  the  bay,  but 
he   is  eager  to  try. 

Harris  was  in  Duluth  several  days 
ago  and  at  that  time  agreed  to  state 
liis  terms  for  meeting  the  Duluth  star 
5n  a  finish  match.  As  yet  not  a  word 
has    been    heard    from    Mauritz. 

Louie,  in  tlie  meantime,  is  anxiously 
asking   for   news   from    Harris. 

line  evening  little  Louie  came  to 
the  doorkeeper  at  the  Auditorium  and 
asked  to  be  admitted  to  one  of  tlie  big 
matches.  The  guardian  of  the  ticket 
portal  demurred.  He  asked  the  reason 
for  the  extending  of  professional 
courtesy. 

The  doorman,  being  a  skeptical  per- 
son, laughed,  and  thinking  the  joke  so 
good,  permitted  the  little  Greek  to 
pass. 

One  of  the  preliminary  boys  "was 
taken  ill  and  Louie,  pressing  eagerly 
forward,  with  a  funny  little  bundle 
under  his  thick  little  arm.  repeated  in 
his  funr.v  Greek  accent,  his  statement 
to  the  doorkeeper.  And  it  went  this 
time. 

What  the  little  Greek  did  to  his 
opponent  was  a  shame.  He  stood  him 
on  his  head  and  also  did  other  things. 
He  w-on  as  he  pleased  and  he  has  been 
doing  that  in  all  of  the  other  matches 
that  he  has  wrestled  at  the  .'Vuditorlum. 
Like  Kid  Alexander,  another  good 
Greek,  he  longs  for  more  worlds  to 
conquer — and  Mauritz  Harris  stands  in 
the  way. 

Fans  here  in  Duluth — at  least  some 
of  them — believe  that  it  would  take 
an  awful  good  133-pound  boy  to  beat 
Louie,  and  should  he  meet  and  defeat 
Harris,  efforts  will  be  made  to  get 
one  of  the  real  champions  of  the  light- 
weight brigade  to  meet  the  budding 
Duluth  star,  who  looks  like  the  real 
goods    in    the   mat   line. 


BILLY  PAPKE. 

For  the  second  time  in  his  strange  career  in  the  ring,  Billv  Papke  stands 
at  the  turning  of  the  lanes.  He  may  again  be  called  the  undisputed  champion 
of  the  mlddlevveights.  as  he  wa.s  on  the  momentous  occasion  when  he  defeated 
the  late  Stanley  Ketchel.  He  is  mat<  Iud  to  fight  Frank  Kiaus  and  Eddie  Mc- 
Goorty  in  Paris,  according  to  the  cable  dispatches,  and  in  the  event  of  a  vic- 
tory will  be  hailed  as  the  undisputed  champion  of  the  middle-weights.  In  that 
event  fate  will  have  kissed  the  Kewanee  lad  twice  in  the  same  place.

of  Duluth. 


<'hicago.  Dec.  27. — The  scarcity  of 
baseball  players  In  vaudeville  was 
commented  on  about  a  year  ago.  It 
looked  then  as  if  the  craze  was  dying 
out  and  that  another  season  would  see 
it    .stone    dead. 

For  some  reason,  however,  the  ath- 
letes were  called  back  and  at  present 
there  are  more  of  them  earning  big 
money  behind  the  footlights  than  ever 
before.  Mike  Donlin,  hooked  up  with 
Tom  L.ewis  of  Cohan  fame,  is  appar- 
ently making  good  in  a  stunt  that  has 
little  to  do  with  the  national  game. 
Hill  .Sweeney  Is  putting  on  a  mono- 
logue. Joe  Tinker  is  telling  stories  and 
sliowing  pictures  of  the  world's  series 
and  men  prominent  in  the  game.  Kube 
Marquard  and  Blossom  Seeley  are 
drawing  big  houses. 

John  McGraw  has  made  a  real  hit 
with  a  sort  of  baseball  lecture.  Hugh 
Jennings  has  a  black-face  partner  and

BRESNAHAN  MAY 

SiSN  WITH  CUBS 


Chicago,  Dec.  27. — Joe  Rivers  and  his 
r-anager,  Joe  Levy,  a  Chicago  boy,  ar- 
rived here  yesterday  on  their  way  to 
New  York,  where  the  Mexican  will  try 
his  hand  on  Leach  Cross  in  a  ten-round 
ergagement  Jan.  14.  It  is  possible 
that  Joe  will  make  two  fights  in  New 
York  and  then  return  here  for  a  battle 
with  Jack  White,  Doc  Krone's  light- 
weight. 

On  Feb.  22  Rivers  is  billed  to  box 
in  Los  Angeles,  no  opponent  as  yet 
having  been  selected.  Levy  and  his 
party,  which  make  five  in  all,  were 
met  by  Doc  Krone,  and  in  less  than 
tiiirly     minutes     articles     were     signed 

for    a    Rivers-Jack    White   affair.      Levy    ^rj^stnod'^hiT't'ol'A 
wants  ciubs   to   bid   for  the   match,   and    "ti stood    ne    told 
if    the    inducements   look   at   all   favor- 
able   ne    will    a.^cept. 

"I  owe  Doc  Krone  much,  and  I  am 
going  to  show  my  appreciation.  Any- 
bcdy  that  he  has  can  get  a  match  with 
Rivers,  either  hereabouts  or  in  Los 
Anegeles,"    said   Levy. 

The  Mexican  is  of  the  belief  that  he 
will  stop  Cross  in  their  fight,  and  that 
it  won't  go  over  eight  rounds.  The 
>  oung  lad  is  bubbling  over  wtih  con- 
fidence. Rivers  is  an  intelligent  young- 
ster and  not  the  kind  that  boasts  of 
liis  ring  work  and  ability.  He  says 
he  v.ill  get  Wolgast  again  in  a  V.est- 
ern  engagement,  and  put  him  out  of 
the  way  decisively.  He  says  once  he 
lands  Richie,  that  he  will  be  the 
champion. 

"I  can  beat  them  all  and  I'll  prove  it 
within  the  next  year.  1  am  going  at 
it  now,  and  each  ba,ttle  from  now  will 
be  a  step  nearer  the  championship," 
said    Rivers. 

I.,evy.  though  a  Chicagoan  and  has 
his  folks  here,  has  high  praise  for  Los 
Argeles,  and  says  he  is  going  to  make 
it  his  pt-rmanent  home. 

"There's  such  a  bunch  of  good  fel- 
lows out  there  one  feels  lost  away," 
is  the  wxy  Levy  puts  it.  He  prides 
himself  on  the  wonderful  success  he 
has  attained  for  his  fighter.  He  de- 
clares that  he  has  .nude  over  $50,000 
for  his  charge  since  he  took  hold  and 
that  again  as  much  awaits  him  in  the 
next    year.  I 

"We  made  $22,000  in  the  last  three 
fights,''    brol<e    in    Rivers. 


President   Murphy    Makes 
Former  St.  Louis  Man- 
ager Good  Offer. 


Los  Angeles,  Dec.  27.— Those  who  bet 
on  the  result  of  prize  ring  contests 
hereabouts  are  lining  up  strongly  on 
the  Al  Palzer  side  of  the  New  Year's 
day  battle,  and  the  effect  was  felt  yes- 
terday when  the  first  break  in  the 
odds  was  noted.  Palzer  is  now  a  slight 
favorite  at   10  to  9. 

Reports  from  Palzer's  camp  that  he 
was  suffering  from  biliou.vness,  cli- 
mate, boils  and  a  lot  of  other  ills  that 
never  existed,  made  the  betting  slow 
and  uncertain  until  within  the  last  few 
days,  when  the  big  fellow  began  show- 
ing   splendid    form. 

A  gala  performance  was  held  at  each 
camp  Christmas.  An  audience  of  prob- 
ably 1,200  swarmed  in  and  around 
Doyle's  camp,  where  Palzer  is  train- 
ing. Palzer  used  his  trio  of  sparring 
mates  for  three  rounds  each.  At  Ve- 
nice, McCarty  wound  up  his  day's  work 
by  romping  through  twelve  rounds  of 
boxing  with  six  big  men,  each  sparring 
partner  giving  him  a  two-round  work- 
out. 

Palzer's  estimate  of  his  prospective 
opponent  as  a  boxer,  was  definitely 
learned  yesterday,  when,  in  discussing 
McCarty's  cleverness,  he  remarked  that 
Luther  might  as  well  leave  his  straight 
left  at  the  training  camp,  for  all  the 
good  it  will  do  him  when  they  hitch 
up  on  Wednesday  afternoon.  Said  he; 
Falser  Very  Confident. 

"If  Mac  can  lay  that  left  on  my  beak 
I'll  make  him  a  present  of  a  house  and 
lot.  In  his  fight  with  Flynn  he  tele- 
graphed that  left  five  seconds  ahead 
of  its  delivery.  I  sat  outside  the  ring 
and  called  the  turn  on  every  move  he 
made. 

"I'll  tell  you  something  else,"  added 
O  Rourke's  giant.  "McCarty  was  tired 
and  blowing  like  a  porpoise  in  the 
ninth  round  of  his  fight  with  Flynn. 
You    didn't    know    that,    did    you?" 

Both  big  men  are  in  good  enough 
condition  now  to  go  into  the  ring.  Pal- 
zer especially  is  in  brilliant  form  and 
barring  accidents,  will  be  on  edge  when 
New  Year's  day  rolls  around.  If  he  is 
whipped  by  McCarty,  It  will  be  simply 
because  the  Missouri  giant  Is  the  bet- 
ter man. 

Gunboat  Smith,  a  heavyweight,  who 
Is  considered  among  the  greatest  of  the 
possibilities,  is  to  meet  Frank  Moran 
of  Pittsburg,  a  sterling  young  puncher, 
in  a  bout  in  San  Francisco  tonight.  If 
there  is  something  decisive  done,  one 
way  or  the  other  in  this  battle,  anoth- 
er strong  factor  will  be  well  intro- 
duced ;to    the    sporting   public. 

Right  on  top  of  this  battle  will  come 
the  struggle  between  McCarty  and  Pal- 
zer. Something  decisive  surely  will 
come  out  of  that  battle,  for  it  is  not  !n 
the  cards  for  two  burlles  of  their  cali- 
j  ber  to  stand  up  for  twenty  rounds  and 
1  whack  away  at  each  other  without  one 
or  the  other  succumbing.  That,  if  it 
happens,  will  bring  out  two  winners 
sharply  and  there  should  be  some  grand 
old  biiding  by  the  coast  clubs.  It  will 
be   a   real    championship    affair.

DULUTH  SKI  CLUB  MAY 

RETURN  TO  ASSOCIATION 

The  Rupture  Between  National  Body  and  Local  Organ- 
ization May  Be  Patched  Up. 


The  Duluth  5;ki  club  may  re-enter 
the    National    attsociatlon. 

While  no  definite  steps  have  been 
taken  in  this  dij-ecilon,  the  move  is  be- 
ing seriously  <  onsidered  by  the  di- 
rectors  and    officers   of    the    local    club. 

That  the  cluV)  needs  the  money  Is 
freely  admitted.  There  is  also  a  story 
that  it  is  difficult  to  arrange  meets 
with  representative  riders  without  the 
aid    of    the    association. 

If  the  Duluth  .Ski  club  does  return 
to  the  National  association  its  with- 
drawal from  that  body  will  not  have 
been    without    its    bentficial    results.

a  rule  which  makes  it  possible  for  the 
local  clubs  to  hold  either  professional 
or  amateur  meeis,  so  that  In  the  event

sometime  during  the  coming  month. 
W))ether  this  is  because  of  the  con- 
templated action  of  the  officials  and 
directors  of  the  club,  or  because,  as 
some  of  the  officials  have  stated,  of 
the  latene-ss  of  the  snow,  is  not  known 
In  his  letter  to  The  Herald  Askei 
I  Holter,  secretary  of  the  National  asso- 
ciation, broadly  intimated  that  he 
hoped  the  trouble  between  the  local 
club  and  the  National  association 
would  be  patched  and  the  breach 
healed.  It  is  stated  that  .Secretary  Hol- 
ter is  making  every  effort  to  bring  a 
reconciliation  about,  and  that  in  the 
event  of  the  Duluth  people  being  will- 
ing to  meet  him  half  wav,  that  the  Du- 
luth .Ski  club  will  go  back  into  tli* 
association. 

In  point  of  all-round  success  the 
tournament  of  last  season  fell  far  be- 
low those  of  past  years.  Various 
causes  may  have  contributed  io  this 
result.  In  the  past  this  city  has  been

HANS  BRAUN^TO  QUIT. 

Famous    German    Runner    Has    De- 
cided to  Retire  From  Atliletics. 

Berlin,  Dec.  27. — Hans  Braun,  Ger- 
many's champion  middle  distance  run- 
ner, who  is  on  a  par  with  some  of  the 
best  in  the  world,  has  announcod  his 
permanent  retirement  from  athletics. 
He  says  he  will  not  train  for  the  Olym-

Braun's  reason  for  taking  this  un- 
expected step  at  a  time  when  his  serv-

pressure  of  business.  His  father  pro- 
poses to  turn  over  his  large  Interests

SOLDIER  KEARNS 

TO  BOX  WILLARD 


New  York,  Dec.  27.  —  Kearns,  the 
Brooklyn  lieavywelght,  who  will  try  to 
land  his  scientific  knockout  wallop  on 
Jess  WiUiard.  the  Texas  giant,  in  Mad- 
i.son  Square  garden  tonight,  served 
two  years  in  the  army,  where  he  was 
a  star  football  player  and  all-around 
athlete.  As  a  boxer,  he  whipped  all 
comers  in  the  service,  and  when  his 
enlistment  ended  he  decided  to  become 
a  professional   pugilist. 

Kearns  began  earning  money  with 
his  gloved  fi.'^t  about  a  year  ago.  He 
knew  little  or  nothing  about  scientific 
boxing,  but  his  wonderful  punch  grad- 
ually got  him  Into  the  limelight. 
Kearns  looks  like  Tom  Sharkey,  ex- 
cept that  he  is  heavier  and  taller  than 
the    sailor. 

Sharkey  has  seen  Kearns  fight  on 
several  occasions  and  Is  enthusiastic. 
The  battle  with  Wllllard  is  the  most 
Important  in  the  mviscular  soldier's 
career.  If  he  beats  the  Texan,  he  will 
be  in  line  for  a  battle  with  the  win- 
ner of  the  Palzer-McCarty  scrap  on 
New  Year's  day  for  the  heavyweight 
championship  of  the   world.

WILL  INVADE  EUROPE. 

Team  of  American  Golfers  to  Cross 
Pond  Next  Year. 

New  York,  Dec.  27.— There  exists 
more  or  less  uncertainty  In  regard  to 
the  proposed  European  invasion  by  a 
team  of  American  amateur  golfers  next 
spring. 

One  well  known  amateur  who  takes 
part  In  tournaments  both  North  and 
South  every  year,  unhesitatingly  gave 
it  as  his  opinion  that  there  would 
not  be  any  foreign  invasion.  He  of- 
fered   to    wager    that    more    than    half 

of  the  golfers  named  would  never  make 
the    trip. 


LITTLE  MEXICAN  TO 

FIGHT  IN  THE  EAST 


"Curlers  are   expected   to  get   on 
ice   of   the   new   rink    by   Monday." 

This  statement  came  from  President 
Stephen    H.   Jones   today. 

Ice  is  being  made  today  on  the  new 
rink.  Not  all  of  the  rinks  will  be 
completed  by  next  week,  but  it  is 
expected  that  several  sheets  of  ice  will 
be  ready  and  then  some  of  the  ultra 
enthusiastic  of  tlie  curlers  can  lug 
their  little  Btane«  down  to  the  big 
structure  and  tell  their  children  in 
after  years  that  they  plaved  the  first 
curling  game  in  the  Duiuth  Curling 
club   rink. 

It  was  also  given  out  that  the  skat- 
ing rink  would  be  ready  for  the 
skaters  by  the  first  of  the  year.  The 
merry  throng  can  probably  inaugurate 
the  skating  seasion  on  New  Year^  day, 
if  the  work  that  is  being  carried  on 
at  present  is  not  seriously  interrupted. 

It  is  planned  to  have  both  the  curl- 
ing and  skatinj?  in  full  blast  before 
all  of  the  construction  of  the  rink  is 
completed. 

While  the  skaters  skate  and  the 
curlers  curl  th.»  workmen  will  work, 
as  workmen  sometimes  do. 

The  completion  of  one  of  the  very 
finest  skating  rinks  in  the  land  will 
be  a  source  or  joy  to  hundreds  of 
lovers  of  skating  in  all  parts  of  tlie 
city.  For  years  the  young  people  of 
Duluth  have  looked  forward  to  the 
time  when  theie  would  be  a  covered 
rink  in  this  cit.r.  Skating  in  this  long 
awaited  rink  will  be  one  of  the  fea- 
tures   of    New    "iear's   day. 

With  the  completion  of  the  first  few 
sheets  of  curling  Ice  the  grand  old 
game  will  soon  be  in  full  swing.  The 
delay  occasionel  by  the  delay  in  the 
construction  o'  the  rink  has  only 
whetted  the  appetite  of  the  old  curl- 
ers and  stimulated  the  desire  of  the 
novices  to  get  into  the  game.  Within 
a  week  it  is  exi)ected  that  curling  will 
be    in    full    swing. 

The  games  committee  members  want 
all  the  rinks  to  be  registered.  DVaws 
will  soon  be  made  and  it  is  absolutely 
necessary  to  have  the  names  of  the 
different  rinks  Defore  the  draw  can  be 
made. 


It  is  to  be  hoped  that  the  tournament 
planned  for  Duluth  sometime  the  pres- 
ent season  will  be  more  successful 
than  the  one  of  last  year,  and,  as  the 
rumor  says,  it  may  be  tiiat  the  local 
club  will  act  in  co-operation  with  the 
National  association. 


Cliffords,  at  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  gvmnaslum 
Saturday  evening.  This  will  be  the 
second  game  of  the  season-  for  the 
boat  club  bunch.  On  New  Year's  eve- 
ning the  oarsmen  are  scheduled  to  . 
meet  the  Great  Northerns  of  Superior 
at  the  Y.  M.  C.  A.  gymnasium  here,  and 
this  game  is  expected  to  be  one  of 
the  best  of  the  early  season,  as  the 
Great  Northerns  have  one  of  the  best 
teams  on   the  village  side   of  the  bay. 

RISKS  NECK  FOR  $80. 

Burglar   in  Kansas   City  Has  Pluck, 
But  No  Luck. 

Kansas  City.  Mo.,  Dec.  27. — To  obtain 
jewelry  valued  at  ffeO,  a  robber  early 
today  climbed  a  fire  escape  six  floors 
to  the  top  of  a  building,  made  a  peril- 
ous passage  down  a  greasy  rope  in  sun. 
elevator  shaft  to  the  fifth  floor,  and 
.'squeezed  himself  through  the  transom 
of  Ray  Bengerfs  jewelry  shop.  The 
building  was  locked  and  in  order  to 
get  away  with  his  loot  the  robber  was 
forced   to  escape  the  way  he  entered. 

The  jewelers  more  valuable  stock, 
worth  $5,000,  had  been  locked  in  a  safe, 
which  the  robber  did  not  attempt  to 
open. 


When  Flndlay  .S.  Douglas  heard  of 
that  he  promptly  declared  this  skeptic 
was  in  wrong.  Douglas  says  he  is  ab- 
solutely certain  of  going,  and  he  .s 
equally  sure  of  several  others.  He 
would  not  be  suri>rised  to  see  at  leaHt 
a  dozen  ^nustered  by  the  time  the 
steamer   sails    early    in    May. 

That  there  will  be  a  European  trip 
for  several,  there  appears  to  be  little 
doubt,  but  whether  the  team  will  be 
strong  enough  to  be  taken  seriously 
on    the   other    side    remains    to   be   seeti.

JENNINGS  HAS  PRAISE 
FOR  OUR  GEORGE  DAUSS 

Hughey  Jennings  in  an  interview  In 
one  of  the  Detroit  papers  comes  out 
with  the  statement  that  George  Dauss 
is  one  of  the  nost  promising  young 
pitchers  he  has  looked  at  for  some 
time.  The  Tiger  leader  says  that  the 
former  St.  Paul  twirler  needs  a  lot  of 
coaching,  but  that  he  seems  to  have  a 
lot  of  stuff.  When  here  and  later  with 
Winona.  Georgi?  had  about  as  much 
stuff  as  any  pitcher  who  ever  showed 
in  this  section  of  the  country.  With 
i  more  control  and  a  more  Intelligent 
■  manner  of  pilcliing  there  appears  no 
reason  why  this  youngster  shouldn't 
make  good.

The  amendment  of  the  constitution 
to  provide  for  a  board  which  would

at  the  question  of  removing  the  office 
from    politics.

eling allowances  are  not  great  enough 
and  that  the  county  officers  must 
spend  some  of  their  own  money  to 
cover  the  field.  A  more  liberal  allow- 
ance In  that  respect  Is  urged.  Other 
chantjes    desired    are:

including  Gilbert  and  Blwabik.  all  of 
which  towns  are  on  the  new  trolley

He  suggested  that  such  a  league 
with  Grand  Hapids  and  Canisteo  in- 
cluded would  be  all  right,  making  It 
an  eight-club  league  which  would  af- 
ford good  railroad  facilities  and  not  be 
unwieldy,  playing  only  Sunday  and 
holiday  baseball,  and  not  playing  any 
professional    ballplayers. 

A  movement  Is  on  foot  to  forward 
thii?  plan  and  bring  it  to  a  success- 
ful head. 

The  plan  would  obviate  the  neces- 
sity of  making  dates  for  games  at  the 
last  minute,  for  the  league  would  have 
a  schedule  for  the  entire  season,  and 
one  team  would  know  where  U  was 
going  to  play  weeks  ahead,  and  u  they 
railed  to  make  connection,  they  would 
forfeit.  It  would  make  the  laaseball 
business  better  and  would  put  it  on  a 
more  substantial  and  sure  basis  than 
each  team  going  it  alone.  It  would 
unify  the  range  and  bring  its  people 
closer  together,  and  It  would  have 
many   advantages.

OLIVE  Tablets 
OIL  the  Bowels 

A  Physician's   Substitute  foi* 
Dangerous  GalomeFm 


When  you  feel  that  your  liver  and 
bowels  need  help  take  Dr.  Edward's 
Olive  Tablets.  Substitute  for  Calomel. 
Calomel  is  effective,  but  dangerous — 
causing  bad  after-effects. 

Olive  Tablets  are  especially  made  to 
take  the  place  of  Calomel.  Dr.  Ed- 
wards for  years  has  been  Calomel's 
foe.  He  saw  Its  dangers  and  Its  disad- 
vantages in  17  years'  practice,  treat- 
ing patients  for  all  kinds  of  liver  and 
bowel  complaints.  In  his  efforts  to 
do  without  Calomel  he  developed  his 
now  famous  little  ollve-oll-colored  tab- 
lets. Olive  Tablets  are  mild  but  ef- 
fective. Safe  and  sure.  Pleasant  to 
take  but  ufifaillng  In  results. 

Olive  Tablets  oil  the  bowels  just 
enough  to  start  Nature's  own  action, 
and  they  tone  up  the  liver  at  the 
same  time  They  are  made  from  a 
rare  combination  of  vegetable  com- 
pounds mixed  with  olive  oil. 

If  you  want  to  regain  that  feeling 
of  joyous  buoyancy  and  clear  thought 
take  Dr.  Edward's  Olive  Tablets.  They 
work  like  a  vacation.  10  and  25  cents 
per  box. 

"Every  little  Olivo  Tablet  has  a 
movement  all  its  own."

CONSOLIDATION  OF 

SCHOOLS  POPULAR. 

Fargo,  N.  I'.,  Dec.  27. — (S'peclal  to 
The  Herald.) — One  of  the  immediate 
results  of  the  recent  country  life  con- 
ference held  here  is  the  impetus  given 
the  consolidated  school  plan.  For  years 
the  educators,  especially  county  and 
state  superintendents,  have  urged  that 
plan,  but  no  great  headway  has  been 
made. 

The  most  seiious  problem  of  the  con- 
solidated Echols  has  always  been  the 
question,  of  transporting  the  pupils 
over  long  distances  and  keeping  tliem 
comfortable  in  the  winter  while  on 
the    road. 

The  method  of  instituting  consolida- 
tion is  extremely  easy  especially  where 
there  are  two  or  three  schools  in  one 
district.  The  board  can  take  the  in- 
itiative if  it  wishes.  If  it  refuses  a 
special  electlcn  must  be  ordered  on 
petition  of  one-third  the  patrons  of 
the  school  an<l  If  a  majority  indorses 
the  proposition  the  board  must  estab- 
lish the  school.  Whenever  schools  In 
different  districts  find  It  desirable  to 
consolidate  there  is  more  difficulty, 
because  the  nembers  of  the  different 
boards  and  tlie  people  of  the  differ- 
ent  districts   do   not   always  agree. 

It  is  anticipated  there  will  be  a  large 
number  of  new  consolidated  schools 
within  the  next  year  and  more  state 
aid  Is  likely  lo  be  offered  them  as  an 
inducement   to    get    together.

Alexander     Shaw    Shows 

Police  a  Bullet  Wound 

in  His  Hand. 

Alexander  Shaw,  5223  Colorado  street, 
watchman  for  the  Omaha  road,  told  the 
police  last  night  that  he  had  been  shot 
in  the  hand  by  ,a  prowler  discovered 
bv  him  In  the  freight  sheds. 

"The  wound  displayed  was  In  the 
fleshy  part  of  the  left  hand  and  was 
such  as  wotild  'be  left  by  a  gun  of 
verv  small  caliber. 

The  watchman  claimed  that  he  wont 
to  investigate  tjpon  hearing  a  suspi- 
cious noise  In  the  building.  He  ex- 
plained that  he  set  his  lantern  down

box  As  he  reached  out  to  grab  him 
he  savs  the  burglar  turnei  upon 
him  with  aiV  baWi  and  fired.  Shaw  said 
that  lie  had  no  weapon  with   him. 

Shaw  could  give  no  other  description 
of  the  burglar  except  that  he  was 
small  and  looked  young.  He  thought 
that  he  was  Inatde  for  a  third  cafe  <>f

OPERA  HOUSE  AT 
KNOX,  N.  D.,  BURNS 

Lodge   Paraphernalia  Also 

Burned— Total  Loss 

About  $20,000. 

Knox,  N.  D.,  Dec.  27. — (Special  to  The 
Herald.) — The  Harrison  opera  house 
with  two  stores  underneath  and  a 
building  adjoining  was  burned  with  a 
total  loss  of  about  $20,000,  half  in- 
sured. 

The  opera  house  was  also  used  as  a 
lodge  room  and  the  paraphernalia  of 
the  Maccabees,  the  Odd  Fellows,  the 
Woodmen,  the  Yeomen,  the  Rebekahs, 
the  Royal  Neighbors  and  other  organi- 
zations were  destroyed.  The  business 
places  were  the  Harrison  pool  hall, 
the  Farmers'  Exchange,  C.  A.  Emer- 
son's undertaking  parlor  and  the  Dele- 
mater  photograph  gallery.  The  flames 
are  supposed  to  have  originated  from 
waste  in  a  cuspidor  in  the  pool  hall, 
into  which  some  one  threw  a  lighted 
match.  The  two  chemical  engines,  a 
bucket  brigade  and  wet  blankets  pre- 
vented the  flames  from  spreading 
across  the  street  to  the  hotel  and  the 
furniture    store. 

MINOrS  CLOSE  CALL. 

Fire  Breaks   Out  During   Temporary 
Break  in  Water  System. 

Minot,  N.  D.,  Dec.  27. — The  entire 
business  and  manufacturing  district 
of  Minot  was  threatened  with  destruc- 
tion Wednesday  night  by  fire,  which 
destroyed  the  building  of  the  Minot 
Foundry   company. 

The  city  was  temporarily  without 
fire  protection,  owing  to  a  broken  wa- 
ter main.  The  building-  of  the  Minot 
Sash  &  Door  company,  which  adjoined 
the  foundry,  was  saved  by  the  heroic 
efforts  on  the  part  of  the  fire  depart- 
ment, aided  only  by  a  chemical  en- 
gine. 

The  loss  is  estimated  at  $15,000.  The 
Insurance    amounts    to    $5,000. 

The  principal  water  main  of  the  city 
broke  early  in  the  day  and  the  city  has 
been  without  water  ever  since.  The 
blaze  had  a  good  start  when  the  fire 
department  arrived  on  the  scene  and 
firemen   were  helpless. 

The  fire  Is  believed  to  have  started 
from  an  overheated  stove  in  an  of- 
fice.

Next  Week. 

The  French  drama  will  be  taken  up 
next  month  by  members  of  the  modern 
drama  class  of  the  Twentietli  Centurj 
club  and  the  play  "The  Crows,"  by 
Henri  Becque  is  the  play  which  has 
been  decided  upon.  The  leader  and  the 
speaker  for  that  meeting  which  will 
be  held  on  Friday  morning,  Jan.  10 
have    not    yet    been    decided    upon. 

At  this  morning's  meeting  the  read- 
ing of  "The  Faith  Healer"  by  Will- 
lam  Vaughan  Moody  was  completed 
under  the  leadership  of  Miss  Ruby 
Seymour,  the  characters  being  read  by 
Dr.  Mary  Conrad.  Miss  Seymour,  Mr.s.

Burk.  Mrs.  Samuelson  and  Miss  Mary 
Shesgren. 

Mrs.  H.  Burk  gave  a  comprehensive

trast of  the  Eastern  and  Western  life 
in  the  play  and  its  typical  American 
setting  makes  it,  she  said,  a  typical 
American  play.

T 


Are  Mothers  Mercenary  in  Mar- 
rying Daughters. 

"I  think  the  mothers  of  this  country 
are    deteriorating,    yes,    deteriorating!" 

This  was  said  with  emphasis  by  a 
middle-aged  man.  commenting  adverse- 
ly on  a  New  York 
society  engagement. 
He  has  three  love- 
ly daughters  of  his 
own,  nearly  at  the 
marriageable  age, 
so  ills  interest  isn't 
altogether  of  the 
gossipy  nature. 
"You  know,"  he  re- 
sumed, "the  father 
of  this  young  wom- 
an, if  rumor  is  cor- 
rect, was  not  anx-  law  <£  "aBS-  ^■ 
ious  for  the  alli- 
ance, and  only  gave 
his  consent  after 
the  mother  of  the  girl  had  argued  and 
pleaded  in  Its  favor.  It  makes  the 
mother  responsible,  and  I  say  any 
number  of  them  are  degenerating  into 
something   less    than   they    should   be." 

"Nonsense,"  I  said,  partly  for  argu- 
ment's sake  and  partly  because  there 
is  another  aide  w^hlch  the  most  virtu- 
ous of  us  would  find  a  temptation,  I 
fear.  "I  doubt  If  you  could  withstand 
the  prospect  of  having  your  daugliter 
mistress  of  $150,000,000.  Sitting  here 
condemning  the  whole  arrangement  Is 
very  different  from  being  obliged  to 
decide    the    question    of    whether    you 


will  or  whether  you  will  not  make 
your  daughter  fhe  wife  of  one  of  the 
richest  men  In  the  world,  not  only 
Insuring  her  future  in  a  thousand  dif- 
ferent ways  but  that  of  generations  to 
come,  in  whom  your  blood  will  mingle." 

But  about  mothers  deteriorating!  I 
don't  think  tliey  have  In  this  respect 
or  any  other.  They  have  always  been 
the  matchmakers,  and  since  time  im- 
m.emorlal.  as  a.  whole,  they  have  al- 
ways had  their  eyes  open  to  an  ad- 
vantageous marriage  for  a  daughter. 
Some  women  are  so  made  that  purely 
worldly  benefits  do  not  form  the  whole 
appeal,  but  as  women  as  a  class  have 
been  the  greatest  sufferers  from  pov- 
erty as  they  have  in  every  other  thing, 
it  is  not  so  remarkable  that  the  pe- 
cuniary side  of  things  strikes  them 
as  forcibly  as  it  seems  to  in  most  In- 
stances. 

It  is  regrettable  that  it  Is  so,  but 
woman's  helplessness  In  the  face  of 
want  in  the  past  because  she  could  not 
seem  to  help  herself  in  any  profitable 
way,  has  been  largely  responsible  for 
the  view  that  many  women  take.  The 
independent  woman  has  changed  this 
considerably  and  will  change  it  more 
as  time  goes  on.  She  will  marry  from 
better  motives,  be  happier  in  her  mar- 
ried life  and  make  it  a  more  perma- 
nent as  well  as  a  happier  relation. 
Centuries  of  one  way  of  thinking  do 
not  yield  readily  to  another,  but  wom- 
en are  learning,  and  there  is  less  mar- 
rying for  money  and  support  than 
there  has  ever  been.

Eve. 


Musical  Program  and  Cab- 
aret Shows  Will  Provide 
the  Entertainment. 


New  Year's  celebration  at  the  Spald- 
ing promises  to  be  the  most  elaborate 
and  altogether  the  most  novel  form  of 
entertainment  that  any  hotel  has  ever 
attempted  at  the  head  of  Lake  Supe- 
rior. 

Edwin  H.  Lee,  managing  director  of 
the  hotel,  has  worked  to  make  the 
forthcoming  celebration  the  most  suc- 
cessful affair  that  the  Spalding  has 
ever  put  on,  and  the  two  big  cafes,  the 
Palm  room  and  the  Flemish  room,  to- 
gether with  the  spacious  lobby,  will  be 
utilized  to  accommodate  the  merry- 
makers who  congregate  to  watch  the 
dying  year  yield  up  the  ghost. 

Elaborate  decorations  have  been 
planned  for  the  two  cafes  and  the 
lobby.  Popular  music  will  enliven  the 
evening,  for  an  orchestra  of  thirty 
pieces  has  been  secured  for  the  enter- 
tainment, and  will  be  one  of  the  dis- 
tinct features  of  what  promises  to  cap 
the  climax  of  the  long  list  of  New 
Year's  entertainments  that  have  been 
given  at  the  big  hotel. 

The  Holland,  with  Its  cabaret  enter, 
tainment.  Is  also  planning  the  biggest 
New  Year's  entertainment  In  the  his- 
tory of  that  hostelry.  The  three  young 
women  of  the  cabaret  brigade  will  be 
.seen  in  some  special  features,  the  cafe 
will  be  specially  decorated,  and  every 
effort  will  be  made  by  the  management 
of  the  hotel  to  make  the  passing  of 
the  New  Year  one  long  to  be  remem- 
bered. 

According  to  the  statement  made  at 
the  St.  Louis,  a  number  of  tables  have 
already  been  reserved  for  the  enter- 
tainment. There  will  be  the  cabaret 
show,  with  special  featdres  added.  The 
big  cafe  is  to  be  specially  decorated 
for  the  occasion  and  there  will  be  a 
special  menu.  Every  detail  of  the  en- 
tertainment is  being  planned  with  the 
idea  of  its  appropriateness  to  New 
Year's. 

The  Lenox  and  McKaj',  without  the 
cafe  feature,  will  as  usual  make  the 
New  Year's  dinner  the  piece  de  re- 
sistance. On  Christmas  both  of  these 
popular  hotels  had  as  many  diners  as 
they  could  comfortabl.v  take  care  of, 
many  of  the  Duluth  families  dining 
there  and  also  many  out  of  town  vis- 
itors. 

New  Year's,  as  In  the  case  of  Christ- 
mas, will  be  the  occasion  of  special 
efforts  upon  the  part  of  the  chefs  of 
these  two  hotels.

ORATORICAl  CONTESTS 


GLEANED 

ALONG'THE 

POLICE 
RUN 


According  to  the  annual  report  soon 
to  be  Issued  by  West  Duluth  police 
department.  West  Duluth  is  becoming 
more  orderly  each  year.  For  the  past 
three  years  the  number  of  arrests  in 
West  Duluth  has  been  on  the  decrease. 

Lieut.  Chartes  Wilcox,  this  morning 
totalled  the  ijumber  of  arrests  already 
made  this  ydar  and  the  number  falls 
forty  short  of  the  arrests  made  last 
year.  There  have  been  175  arrests 
made  to  date  this  year,  while  215  ar- 
rests w^ere  made  in  1911.  The  total  in 
1910  was  about  250.  . 

During  the  past  year  the  local  de- 
partment has  had  very  little  trouble, 
with  the  excepttmi  of  the  many  small 
cases  that  com«Fup.  The  street  rail- 
way strike  wa»  the  only  serious  busi- 
ness the  policemen  were  compelled  to 
handle. 

"West  Duluth  is  getting  more  or- 
derly every  day."  said  Lieut.  Wilcox 
this  morning,  in  discussing  the  year's 
report,  which  he  will  send  to  the  head- 
quarters soon  ^tter  the  new  ytar 
opens.  "V^ery  few  serious  incidents 
have.iappened  here  lately  and  the  of- 
ficers seeiii  to  have  the  entire  district 
well   In   fiiafid.' 


Beginning  next  month  the  West  Du- 
luth branch  of  the  Women's  Christian 
Temperance  union  will  again  hold  its 
annual  silver  medal  oratorical  con- 
tests among   the  members. 

The  contests  this  year  will  be  held 
at  the  various  schools  in  this  end  of 
the  city  and  the  school  children  will 
be  allow^ed  to  hear  the  orations.  In 
the  past  the  contests  were  held  either 
at  the  homes  of  the  members  or  at 
local  churches. 

An  oratorical  contest  will  be  held 
once  a  month,  the  six  winners  finally 
meeting    for    the    gold    medal    and    the

Mrs.  Katherine  Tammelln,  who  con- 
ducts a  boarding  house  at  526  West 
First  street,  is  afraid  to  keep  her 
money  in  this  country,  so  she  sends  it 
to  Finland  for  safety.     So  she  told  the 

police    this   morning. 

Il.wcver,  that  docs  not  regulate  her 
Bi  r  ipl>.s  relative  to  taking  other  peo- 
ple 8  money  for  safe  keeping.  The  po- 
lice assert  that  she  doesn't  care  how 
long   she    keeps    It,    either. 

Last  night  Albert  Erickson.  a  coun- 
tryman, handed  her  $50  to  keep  for 
him.  He  hadn't  heard  about  Mrs. 
Tammelln  being  so  afraid  of  robbers 
that  she  sent  all  her  own  cash  to  the 
old  country  so  that  it  wouldn't  be  stol- 


en. Not  having  been  prepared  in  ad- 
vance, he  was  surprised  this  morning 
when  Informed  that  his  $50  had  taken 
flight.  Then  Mrs.  Tammelln  tried  to 
soothe  his  ruffled  spirits  by  telling  him 
that  she  was  so  skeptical  about  the 
conservation  of  her  own  resources  that 
she  does  her  banking  across  the  seas 
But  Albert  could  not  be  calmed  In  that 
manner.  He  told  his  tale  of  woe  to 
Sergeant  Roberg  and  the  sergeant 
sent  Mrs.  Tammelln  to  headquarters, 
where  she  went  over  her  fears  and 
methods   again. 

Mrs.  Tammelln  declared  that  she 
could  in  no  way  be  connected  with 
any  wings  which  may  have  attached 
themselves  to  Albert's  wad.  She  ex- 
plained that  she  had  turned  the  entire 
sum  over  to  one  Fred  Salmi,  a  star 
boarder.  The  police  wanted  to  know 
more  about  Salmi.  Whereupon  it  de- 
veloped that  Mrs.  Tammelln  has  sev- 
ered her  intimate  relations  with  h.er 
spouse  and  is  suing  him  for  a  divorce. 
Feeling  the  need  of  a  masculine  pres- 
ence she  said  she  hired  Salmi  to  be  a 
boss  about  the  place. 

So  it  was  that,  Salmi  being  the  boss^ 
she  turned  the  coin  over'  to  him.  Be- 
ing boss  evidently  did  not  weigh  heav- 
ily upon  Salmi's  mind.  His  sense  of 
responsibilitv  did  not  coiftpel  him  to 
secrete  Albert's  spondulix  under  the 
house  or  the  carpet  or  a  hole  in  the 
ground  or  a  safe  or  a  bank.  Mrs.  Tam- 
melln said  that  he  Just  naturally 
stuffed  the  roll  into  his  trousers' 
pocket.  When  he  retired  for  the  night 
she  asserted  that  he  just  tossed  his 
trousers  across  the  foot  of  the  bed. 
I  When    he      awoke      this     morning    she

averred  that  the  green  plush  had 
walked  off  and  was  nowhere  to  be 
found.  How  could  that  be  astonishing 
when  she,  Katherine  Tammelln,  was  so 
afraid  of  burglars  and  thieves  that  she 
sent  all  her  money  to  Finland,  she 
wanted  to  know.  The  cops  confessed 
themselves  at  a  loss  to  fully  enlighten 
her.  although  they  hinted  that  they 
might  be  able  to  make  a  guess. 

Mrs.  Tammelln  said  that  although 
she  didn't  know  a  thing  about  the  loss 
of  Albert's  coin  she  would  be  willing 
to  make  the  sum  good.  She  said  that 
she  had  saved  out  just  enough  of  the 
last  shipment  to  Finland  to  make  the 
riffle. 

Incidentally.  Albert  informed  the  po- 
lice in  the  course  of  his  wail  of  woe, 
that  Mrs.  Tammelln  had  supplied  him 
with  four  bottles  of  beer  while  toss- 
ing honeyed  phrases  of  condolence  at 
him  this  a.  ni.  when  he  wanted  his 
money  back.  The  police  didn't  have 
much  on  Mrs.  Tammelln  on  the  larceny 
allegation,  but  they  arrested  her  for 
operating  a  blind  pig.  She  pleaded 
not  guilty  and  her  trial  was  set  for 
tomorrow  morning.  The  court  fixed 
bail  at  $100.  Then  it  appeared  that 
she  had  held  out  again  on  the  last 
.shipment  to  Finland,  for  she  had  no 
trouble  whatever  in  producing  the 
sum  necessary  for  bail. 

Albert  did  not  quite  know  what  to 
make  of  the  proceedings.  He  was 
somewhat  at  sea.  He  cried  that  he 
did  not  want  the  woman  arrested.  All 
he  wanted  was  his  money  back.  He 
pleaded  with  the  officers  to  turn  her 
loose  so  that  he  could  get  his  coin, 
hut  his  pleadings  fell  upon  deaf 
ears.

Hugo  Paige,  arrested  on  a  charge 
of  disorderly  conduct  for  trying  to 
"mash"  two  girls  on  Superior  street 
Wednesday  evening,  was  found  not 
guilty  and  discharged  after  a  trial  in 
police  court  yesterday  afternoon.  He 
said  that  the  girls  had  smiled  and 
nodded  to  him  first  and  that  he  had 
not  forced  his  attentions  upon  them  in 
any  way.  One  of  the  girls  was  Ethel 
Arbour  of  West  Duluth  and  she  said 
her  companion  was  Hilma  Norling. 
Ethel  is  the  complaining  witness

Ed  Miller  said  today  that  Stans  San-

forced  himself  into  a  beer  party  in 
which  they  were  participating  in  a  bar 
in  the  western  end  of  the  city.  San- 
kowski  denied  the  allegation,  but  he 
was  found  guilty  after  a  trial  In  po- 
lice court.  He  paid  a  fine  of  $5  and 
costs,  amounting  to  $12.24.  Miller  fig-

The  police  said  that  employment

When  he  continued  to  return  to  the 
station  for  lodging  they  billed  him

TROUBLE  IN  RINK  • 

WHEN  LIGHTS  GO  OUT 


Thomas  Sorenson,  caretaker  of  the 
Western  Curling  club,  had  a  distress- 
ing experience  late  last  night  while 
flooding    the    ice. 

At  11  o'clock,  soon  after  all  the  curl- 
ers had  left  the  rink,  Mr.  Sorensorr 
began  flooding  the  ice.  The  lights 
went  out  and  Mr,  Sorenson  in  at- 
tempting to  find  his  way  out  of  the 
building,  ran  into  the  hose.  In  trying 
to  get  out  of  the  way  of  the  water 
he  fell  through  one  of  the  low  windows 
into  a  large  hole  outside  of  the  build- 
ing. 

Mr.  Sorenson  had  no  candles  in  the 
building  and  was  thfn  compelled  to  go 
in  and  stop  the  flow  of  water.  He 
slipped  upon  entering  the  rink  and  was 
again  struck  by  the  water.  It  took  him 
some  time  to  straighten  things  out, 
after  the  lights  were  turned  on  at 
midnight.  His  clothes  were  covered 
with  icicles  when  he  went  home  early 
this   morning.

YOUNG  WIFE  SAYS 
HUSBAND  WAS  CRUEL 


After  two  years  of  married  life.  Anna 
Harriet  Stevenson,  21-year-old  bride  of 
Arthur  Lindsay  Stevenson,  a  West  Du- 
luth saloon  proprietor,  has  tired  of  her 

bargain  and  is  seeking  a  separation  In 
the  divorce  court. 

Yesterday  she  filed  her  complaint 
and  request  for  a  divorce  decree.  She 
charges  cruel  and  inhumane  treat- 
ment. Stevenson  Is  33  years  old  and  Is 
well  known  In  the  western  end  of  the 
city. 

Immediately  after  their  marriage, 
which  took  place  at  Superjpr  on  Feb. 
8,  1910,  Stevenson  began  to  find  fault 
with  her  cooking  she  says.  He  even 
went  to  the  extreme,  it  is  said,  of  eat- 
ing his  meals  up  town,  coming  home 
only  when  occasion  required  that  he 
should   do  so. 

Another  act  of  cruelty  recited  by  the 
young  wife  was  the  posting  of  post- 
card pictures  of  another  woman,  un- 
known to  her,  about  the  rooms  of 
their  house.  The  Stevensons  are  par- 
ents of  one  so;i,  Edward  Patrick,  born 
Nov.  17.  1910.

ELUDES  TRAPPER. 

John  Gram,  a  trapper,  whose  home 
is  in  West  Duluth,  has  returned  for 
a  visit  over  the  holidays.  He  spent  the 
past  two  months  trapping  on  the  North 
shore. 

Mr.  Gram  has  been  a  trapper  for  a 
number  of  years.  This  fall  he  chased 
a  silver  gray  fox  for  three  days,  but 
to  no  avail.  It  was  the  first  one  he 
had  seen  In  some  time,  but  lack  of 
snow  made  it  hard  to  track  the  animal. 

He  will  leave  ag.ain  after  New  Year's 
and  remain  In  the  woods  throughout 
the  winter.  He  will  be  accompanied 
by  Lyle  Baker.

around  there  Is  getting 
corn  growing  region." 
said  Mr.  Parkhill.  "The  farmers  raise 
it  to  feed  the  stock,  which  they  buy 
from  the  pasture  regions  of  the  W'est 
to  fatten  for  the  market.  This  buying 
and  fattening  of  catle  for  the  market 
is  getting  to  be  quite  an  industry  in 
that  part  of  the  state,  and  more  and 
more  corn  is  being  raised  every  year 
for  the  purpose  of  feed,  as  well  as 
to  send  away.  The  cattle  are  usually 
bought  in  October  and  kept  until  Feb- 
ruary, when  they  are  sent  on  to  the 
market  at    South   St.   Paul. 

"Our  farrrers  are  also  going  heavily 
Into  the  raising  of  poultry.  This  was 
begun  on  a  large  scale  only  about  two 
years  ago.  It  has  been  found  quite 
profitable  and  has  necessitated  the 
raising  of  a  great  deal  more  corn  for 
feeding  purposes.  Nearly  all  our  poul- 
try goes  to  the  Chicago  market.  Our 
wheat  and  other  grains  go  largely  to 
Duluth, 

"The  ralsin.sr  of  corn  has  long  been 
Increasing  steadily  from  year  to  year 
in  our  part  of  the  state.  It  is  now  no 
uncommon  thing  to  see  forty,  fifty  and 
even  sixty-acre  tracts  devoted  entirely 
to  the  raising  of  corn.  This  year  the 
farmers  had  some  trouble  getting  the 
right  kind  of  seed.  Many  of  them 
neglected  to  save  enough  seed  last 
vear  so  that  they  had  to  buy  more  last 
spring.  They  got  a  great  deal  of  soft 
seed,  used  to  a  warmer  climate,  and 
much  of  it  did  not  do  well.  We  can- 
not use  Illinois  or  Iowa  seed  with 
much  success.  W'e  do  best  with  our 
own  seed.  Our  farmers  will  not  make 
that  mistake  again. 

"Another  big  industry  In  that  part 
of  North  Dakota  is  the  raising  of  po- 
tatoes. Farmers  generally  were  not 
satisfied  with  the  prices  they  received 
for  potatoes  this  fall,  and  many  acres 
were  left  undjg.  The  yield  was  large. 
Yet  there  is  likely  to  be  a  large  plant- 
ing of  potatoes  next  spring.  You  see, 
when  the  seed  Is  high,  that  usually 
means  that  the  prices  will  be  low 
when  we  get  the  harvest,  but  when 
the  seed  is  cheap,  as  potato  seed  now 
is.  it  means  that  prices  will  be  high 
when    the    crop    is    marketed. 

"The  town  of  Fairmount  did  some 
lively  business  shiptjing  potatoes  this 
fall. "  I  believe  this  was  the  greatest 
potato  shipping  year  we  ever  had. 
fometimes  farmers  only  got  15  cents 
a  bushel.  That  did  not  pay.  At  other 
times  they  received  2.t  cents  a  bushel, 
which   paid   fairly  well. 

•I  believe  our  farmers  will  sow  a 
great  deal  of  barley  next  spring,  be- 
cause the  seed  is  cheap.  They  will 
probably  have  about  the  usual  ace- 
ages    of   wheat    and    oats. 

"Very  little  flax  is  raised  in  that 
region,  for  the  land  there  has  already 
been  flaxed,  and  Is  no  longer  of  much 
good  for  raisln.g  that  grain."

Broomhall  wired  from  Liverpool  on 
Dec  26:  "Holiday  dullness  has  per- 
vaded the  markets  during  the  week 
but  prices  generally  hold  firm.  It  is 
thought  that  traders  in  the  United 
States  are  beginning  to  realize  that 
they  hold  the  balance  of  power  as 
regards  surplus  and  when  this  theory 
is  fully  appreciated  growers  in  the 
I'nited  States  will  become  firmer. 
Russia  and  Ftoumania  have  only  a  lim- 
ited supply  of  desirable  wheat  avail- 
able for  export  and  it  is  believed  here 
that  America  is  commencing  to  realize 
tliat  the  demand  from  European  im- 
l  orters  is  likely  to  prove  larger  than 
anticipated,  because  it  is  now  evident 
that  the  wet.  sunless  summer  dam- 
aged wheat  more  generally  than  ex- 
pected and  therefore  the  quantity  of 
millable    wheat    will    be    small. 

•'The  amount  of  European  native- 
available  di-ring  the  ensuing  winter 
aiid  soring  montlis  will  be  the  decid- 
hig  factor  in  fixing  international 
prices.  Five  months  have  elapsed  since 
the  usual  harvest  date  and  still  the 
siinnly     rfmalns     generallv     Inadpouate 


and  this  is  more  largely  true  than  at 
ar.y  season  I  recollect.  Stocks  every- 
where are  disappointingly  light.  It  is 
surprising  that  France,  after  reaping 
a  crop  believed  laige,  should  buy  for- 
eign wheat  for  home  consumption  so 
early,  while  the  tiigh  prices  for  for- 
ward shipment  indicate  the  continuous 
demand,  and  it  is  almost  Impossible 
to  over  rate  this  phenomenon,  because 
the  fact  that  France  has  joined  the  Im- 
porters means  substantially  Increased 
estimates  of  requirements  which  are 
already  very  large.  Other  importing 
countries,  except  Germany,  continue 
to  purchase  liberally  with  no  serious 
accumulation  In  stocks.  It  Is  un- 
certain whether  Germany  will  need  to 
buy  large  quantities  of  good  wheat 
but,  it  is  assured  that  she  will  not 
export  to  the  extent  of  last  year. 
World's  shipments  will  continue  lib- 
erally with  America  contributing 
largely." 

*      *      • 

The  Modern  Miller  says:  "Recently 
precipitation  has  fallen  extensively  in 
parts  of  Texas  and  Oklahoma,  and  in 
the  northern  part  of  the  winter  wheat 
belt  snow  Is  falling,  but  there  are 
large  areas  where  no  moisture  has 
been  received  for  long  periods.  In 
these  localities  the  ground  is  dry  and 
the  wheat  plants  poorly,  needing  relief 
by    plentiful    moisture."

THE  CHICAGO  MARKET. 


New  York,  Dec.  27. — Prices  showed 
a  distinct  upward  trend  until  weak- 
ness appeared  in  several  specialties. 
Fluctuations  were  small,  and  there  was 
no  relief  from  the  exceptional  dullness 
of   earlier     days     of   the     week.      High 

mout-y  rates  again  acted  as  a  drag  in 
speculation.  Call  loans,  opening  at  10 
per  cent,  quickly  advanced  to  12  per 
cent,  at  which  rate  renewals  were 
made,  as  compared  with  8  per  cent 
yesterday.  Copper  shares  were  helped 
by  improved  conditions  abroad  and 
ifiilroad  Issues  also  developed  some 
strength,  but  the  advance  was  not  sus- 
tained. Beet  Sugar  dropped  3  points. 
Sugar  also  lost  and  the  active  list 
went  back  to  a  level  with  yesterday's 
close.      Bonds   were    steady. 

Dittie  business  was  on  hand 
when  the  stock  market  opened 
today,  and  prices  barely  moved. 
Most  of  the  active  stocks  improved  by 
small  fractions.  Interest  broadened 
and  some  Issues  were  marked  up  from 
%  point  to  1  point.  Including  Union 
Pacific,  ReaG>wg.  Southern  Pacific,  L.e- 
lilgh    Valley   and    Smelting. 

Call  money  rates  fell  to  7  per  cent, 
but  the  market  was  not  benefited, 
weakness  In  special  stocks  pulling 
down  the  general  list.  Can  was  active 
and  lost  over  2  points. 

Checking  of  the  decline  In  Beet  Sug- 
ar caused  a  better  tone  to  the  general 
market,  but  it  continued  exceedingly 
dull. 

The  market  closed  heavy.  Nothwlth- 
Ing  the  collapse  In  call  money  rates  to 
1  per  cent,  stock  prices  went  off  stead- 
ily and  Union  I'acJflo,  Steel  and  Amal- 
gamated Copper  sold  one-half  point 
under  yesterday's  closing.  The  move- 
ment In  other  issues  was  not  wide  and 
general     offerings    were    small.

ro«on  Market. 

New  York,  Dec.  27. — The  cotton  mar- 
ket opened  barely  steady  at  an  ad- 
vance of  7  points  to  a  decline  of  6 
points.  Near  months  were  relatively 
firm  on  higher  cables  than  expected, 
while  later  deliveries  were  Influenced 
ty  the  failure  of  bull  support  to  de- 
velop on  the  call.  Wall  street  selling 
was  very  much  the  same  character  as 
that  noted  before  the  holidays.  The 
general  list  sold  4  to  7  points  net 
lower  right  after  the  call,  but  at  this 
decline  met  support  from  bullish  trade

Wheat   Starts  Bullish   Move  But  Re- 
acts During  Early  Trading. 

Chicago,  Dec.  27. — Free  bidding  by 
the  continent  for  cargoes  to  arrive; 
higher  cables;  the  prospect  of  light 
shipments  from  countries  other  than 
the  United  States,  and  a  report  of 
storms  In  the  Argentine — very  prompt- 
ly denied — affected  the  wheat  market 
bullishly  at  the  opening  today,  May 
selling  %c  to  14c  over  yesterday  at 
92t^c  to  92c.  The  dissipation  of  the 
Argentine  storm  rumor,  an  official  re- 
port of  the  government  of  that  coun- 
try showing  that  this  year's  crop  will 
exceed  last  year's  by  28,000,000  bu,  and 
a  disinclination  to  take  the  dry 
weather  in  the  Southwest  as  serious 
at  this  season  were  bearish  factors 
under   which   Mav   receded   to   91  %c. 

The  decline  carried  May  to  91 14©

The  close  Tvas  easy.  May  %@%c  off

Corn  was  dull  and  easy  on  selling  by 
local  professionals  and  cash  houses, 
demand  for  the  spot  article  being  slow. 
May  opened  unchanged  at  4SV^c  and 
sold  to  48i,i(g>48%c. 

The  close  was  weak.  May  %c  down 
at  4814c. 

Oats  were  dull  and  featureless.  May 
opened  unchanged  to  a  shade  up  at 
32 %c  to   32%'S^3c. 

Provisions  ruled  dull  and  lower  with 
hogs.  There  was  some  selling  of  ribs 
and  Investment  of  the  proceeds  in  lard. 
May  pork  opened  a  shade  to  2^/i>@oc 
down  at  $18.30  to  $18.27^,  and  de-

of  the  statement  of 
Hatch  of  the  water 
light  department  that  the  break  re- 
ported from  Lakeside  this  morning  was 
only  a  service  main,  it  was  learned 
this  afternoon  that  the  break  was  liv 
the  YAg  42-inch  main  at  Fortieth  ave- 
nue east  and  Superior  street. 

The    first    reports      were      that 
break  was  in  the  large  feed  main. 
Manager  Hatch   denied   them   most 
phatically  and  said  the  break  was 
ply  In   one  of   the   service   mains, 
afternoon,    however,    owners      of 
draulic    elevators    wtre    asked    to 
continue       running      them      until 
main   had   been   fixed.      It  was  the 
valve    at    Fortieth    avenue    east 
broke 

Mr.  Hatch  admitted  this  afternoon- 
that  it  was  the  large  main,  and  said 
that  the  first  reports  of  his  men  had 
been  erroneous. 

The  break  was  first  discovered  at- 
5:16  o'clock  this  morning,  and  was  re- 
ported at  that  time  by  D.  C.  Thompson, 
whose  home  on  London  road  was  flood- 
ed. No  workmen  reached  the  Hcene 
until  8:30  and  it  was  more  than  two 
hours  later  before  the  water  was  com- 
pletely stopped.  Between  6  and  8 
o'clock  the  water  covered  London  road 
and  flooded  the  basements  of  houses 
in  that  vicinity. 

It  Is  believed  that  there  is  a  suffi- 
cient .=upplv  of  water  In  the  reservoirs 
to  last  until  the  main  has  been  repaired.

Though  mining  stocks  were  not  ac- 
tive today,  the  trerd  was  upward.  The 
general  stock  market  of  New  York  w.is 
slightly  off  at  the  close,  but  the  loss 
did  not  seem  to  affect  the  coppers  or 
ether  mining  eh.ires.  There  were 
higher  closes  today  In  North  Butte, 
Greene  Cananca.  Calumet  &  Arizona 
and  Shattuck,  but  Amalgamated  was 
slightly  off.  Curb  stocks  were  alno 
strong.  There  were  gains  in  American 
Saginaw.  Calumet  &  Corbin,  Copper 
Queen,  Florence,  E  enita  and  St.  Marv. 
Cliff  showed  a  decline  of  ten  cents, 
but  thL-i  was  due  to  the  regular  an- 
nual ten-cent  dividend,  payable  to 
stockholders  of  record  yi-sterday.  Sie*-- 
ra  and  Warrior  Development  were  a 
little    weaker    at    the    close    today. 

The  copper  met;;l  market  of  Lon- 
don closed  todav  with  spot  5s  off  and 
futures  2s  6d  off.

Gay  &  .Sturgls  received  from  L  J. 
Sturgis  a  I  Boston  the  following  closing 
letter:  "There  has  been  a  little  more 
activity  today  and  ihe  first  half  of  the 
session  prices  advanced  somewhat.  At 
the  close  a  reacti<m  was  going  on, 
which  left  prices  very  nearly  the  same 
as  last  night.  Money  was  tight  both 
here  and  in  New  York,  as  was  quite  to 
be  expected  just  before  the  end  of  the 
year.  There  were  more  buyers  in 
sight  today  than  yesterday  but  sellers 
were  no  more  numerous.  It  looks  as 
though  a  fair  rall^  Is  just  ahead  but 
only  that."

Paine,  Webber  &  Co.  received  from 
Foster  at  Boston  the  following  closing 
copper  letter:  "Trading  today  showed 
a  more  confident  tone.  The  volume  of 
business  was  still  small  and  fluctua- 
tions narrow,  but  most  of  the  new  or- 
ders were  on  the  buying  side.  The 
Washington  investigation  of  the  money 
trust  seems  to  have  lost  its  effect  and 
the  close  approacit  of  Jan.  1,  with 
monev  still  comparatively  easy,  is  help- 
ing to  restore  confidence.  Granby  ad- 
vanced three  polntji  to  71  on  good  buy- 
ing. Butte  was  also  strong  in  the 
earlv  hours,  but  reacted  at  the  close. 
We  do  not  see  any  forced  liquidation 
hanging  over  the  market,  and  any 
change  for  the  belter  In  public  senti- 
ment will  advance  prices  easily."

gag-ging  two  guards  and  making  a

ing Jewelry  store  robbers  suddenly  ap^ 
peared  in  a  crowd  in  front  of  Charles

a  missile  wrapped  In  a  newspaper

recovered. 

Hammond,  who  was  in  the  store 
making  a  sale  to  a  customer,  saw  the

leave  his  stock  and  pursue  the  thieves. 
Several  persons  who  saw  the  theft  per- 
petrated gave  chase  after  the  robbers, 
but   they   escaped   by   darting  down   an 

alley.

"Washington,  Dec.  28. — On  its  own 
Initiative,  the  interstate  commerce  com- 
niis.-jion  today  Instituted  an  investiga- 
tion into  the  rates,  practices  and  regu- 
lations of  various  railroads  governing 
the  f  ra.M.vportatlon  of  iron  ore  from  pro- 
<luc  iiJL;  fu  Ids  in  Minnesota  to  the  docks

and  tu  many  destinations  in  the  Central

Many  other  carriers  are  involved. 
TJ!'  commission  announces  its  purpose 
to  if?sue  an  order,  after  investigation, 
that  will  eliminate  any  unlawful  or

TELLS  OFMIRIStMAS 
HURRICANE  AT  SEA 

Passengers    on    Crippled 

Steamer  Narrung  Reach 

British  Port. 

L.ondon,  Dec.  28. — Stories  of  experi- 
ences during  the  Christmas  gales  in 
the  Englisli  channel  were  told  by  many 
of  the  SOO  passengers  of  the  Peninsular 
&  Oriental  liner  Narrung,  which  ar- 
rived in  the  Thames  today.  The  vessel, 
which  had  come  from  the  Far  East, 
met  the  full  force  of  the  hurricane  off 
Ushant,  on  the  French  coast,  on  Christ- 
mas morning. 

Great  waves  washed  the  vessel's 
decks  from  end  to  end  and  flooded 
most  of  the  cabins.  The  passengers, 
driven  from  tlieir  berths,  were  com- 
pelled to  sit  for  many  hours,  most  of 
them  in  light  night  clothing,  knee 
deep  in  water. 

Hit   By  Immeniie  Sea. 

Finally  an  immen.«e  sea  struck  the 
vessel  and  crippled  lier.  Wirele.ss  mes- 
sages were  sent  off  asking  asslsta  ico, 
but  before  this  arrived  the  captain 
had  once  more  got  his  vessel  under 
control  and  was  making  his  way  a.s 
best  he  could  toward  the  mouth  of  the 
Thames,  wliere  the  Narrung  arrived 
with  a  heavy  list  and  everything  on 
the  decks  smashed,  torn  or  washed 
away. 

From  most  of  the  Southern  ports 
come  reports  of  the  arrival  of  storm- 
damaged  vessels.  Many  of  them  were 
compelled  to  abandon  the  voyage  on 
which  tiiey  had  started  because  of  the 
injuries  they  suffered  during  the  series 
of  hurricanes.

State  Joins  Honors  to  Her

President. 


Staunton,  Va.,  Dec.  28. — "Woodro"w 
Wilson,  president-elect  of  the  United 
States,  opened  his  eyes  here  today  in 
the  same  home  and  in  practically  the 
same  surroundings  as  fifty-six  years 
ago  today,  when  he  was  born.  He  had 
slept  In  the  parsonage  of  the  First 
Presbyterian  church,  of  which  his  fath- 
er. Rev.  Joseph  R-  Wilson,"  was  pastor 
more  than  a  half  century  ago. 

FVom  far  and  wide  have  come  ad- 
mirers and  childhood  friends.  The 
crowd  began  to  surge  through  the 
streets  early  to  gain  the  best  vantage 
points  from  which  to  catch  a  glimpse 
of  the  future  president,  and  to  view  the 
parade  which  marks  the  celebration  of 
his  birthday  anniversary. 

Governor  Mann  and  other  officials, 
both  state  and  local,  joined  in  wel- 
coming Governor  Wilson.  To  this  he 
had  prepared  a  speech  In  response. 
Then  followed  a  public  reception  and 
tonight  will  be  a  banquet  at  which  he 
is  to  speak. 

Called  on  Women  Who  Held  Htm. 

Governor  Wilson  inserted  a  few  ex- 
tra numbers  in  the  program  today 
when  he  decided  to  visit  three  women 
who  had  danced  him  on  their  knees 
when  he  yelled  lustily,  and  who  had 
admiringly    examined      his    first    teeth.

DULUTH  DEPENDENT  ON 

WATER  IN  RESERVOIRS 


Break  in  Supply  Main  Shuts 

Off    Flow    From 

Lakewood, 


Consumers  Urged  to  Use 

as  Little  Water  as 

Possible. 


Duluth  people  are  urged  by  the  wa- 
ter and  light  department  to  use  as 
little  water  as  possible.  The  check 
valve  on  the  42-lnch  main  at  Fortieth 
avenue  east  and  Superior  street,  which 
broke  early  yesterday  morning,  cannot 
be  repaired  until  tonight  at  the 
earliest.  In  the  meantime  Duluth  is 
dependent  upon  the  reservoir  supply. 

Pumping  to  Proctor  has  stopped  and 
the  water  supply  of  the  village  on  the 
hill  is  cut  off.  Hydraulic  elevators  and 
other  machinery  using  large  quantities 
of  water  have  been  stopped.  The  water 
and  light  department  has  issued  a 
general  warning  to  the  people  to  be 
as  sparing  as  possible  in  their  use  of 
water. 

Ordinary  consumption  of  water  will 
not  greatly  deplete  the  supply  before 
the  valve  is  repaired,  according  to  Man- 
ager S.  R.  Hatch,  but  conservation  is 
urged  as  a  precautionary  measure. 

A  steel  casting  to  replace  the  broken 
valve  i.s  being  made  at  the  Gogebic 
boiler  works  and  it  is  expected  to  be 
finished  this  afternoon.  The  installa- 
tion should  be  completed  by  this  eve- 
ning if  everything  goes  well,  and  nor-

MURDERSHISWIFE

Indiana     Man,     Recently 

Married,    Commits 

Double  Crime. 

I.a  Orange,  Ind.,  Dec.  28. — Edward 
Hart,  early  today,  shot  and  killed  his 
wlXe,  Mrs.  Rena  Hart,  from  whom  he 
was  separated,  and  her  mother,  Mrs. 
Sarah    McBride. 

After  the  shooting  Hart  ran  into  the 
country,  but  a  few  hours  later  rt-turned 
to  the  home  of  a  brother,  where  he 
was  captured. 

Mrs.  McBride  was  shot  as  she  slept. 
Mrs.  Hart,  awakened  by  the  report, 
ran  from  her  bedroom  and  ■vvas  shot 
down.  Her  death  occurred  two  hours 
later.  Hart  had  been  married  but  a 
few    months. 


SEEK  IN  VAIN  FOR 
BURNING  SCHOONER 

Two  Revenue ''Cutters  Try 

to  Save  Crew  From 

Death  in  Sea. 

Newport,  R.  I.,  Dec.  28. — No  trace  of 
a  schooner  reported  to  be  burning  at 
sea  was  found  by  two  revenue  cutters 
which  spent  the  night  cruising  off 
Block  Island  and  flashing  their  search- 
lights over  the  sea.  The  cutters  con- 
tlntied   their   search    today. 

Throughout  the  night  an  icy  north- 
west gale  blew  along  the  coast.  With 
thiB  rising  of  the  sun,  the  wind  moder- 
ated. 

The  Are  was  first  reported  from 
Block  Island  last  night.  The  burning 
craft  appeared  to  be  a  four-master, 
about  twelve  miles  oft  shore.  Sea- 
faring men  believe  that  the  crew  of 
the  schooner  must  have  been  driven 
from  their  vessel  by  the  flames.  The 
sea  was  so  rough  that  a  small  craft 
could  not  stay  afloat  long.

London,  Dec.  28. — The  peace  envoys 
representing  the  Balkan  allies  and  the 
Turkish  empire  met  again  In  St.  James' 
palace  today,  and  after  an  hour  and  a 
i  half  of  discussion  decided  on  a  further 
adjournment  until '  4  o'clock  Monday 
afternoon. 

The  delegates  of  Bulgaria,  Greece. 
Montenegro,  Servia  and  Turkey  gath- 
ered at  11  o'clock.  It  was  the  turn  of 
the  Turks  to  preside,  and  Rechab 
Pasha  took   the  chair. 

Business  began  at  once,  the  first 
matter  on  hand  being  the  presentation 
by  the  Turkish  plenipotentiaries  of  the 
counter-proposals  put  forward  by  the 
Ottoman  government  In  reply  to  those 
ofl'ered  by  the  Balkan  allies. 

The  Balkan  representatives  found 
the  Turkish  conditions  quite  unac- 
ceptable, and  after  an  hour  and  a  half 
discussion,  as  no  further  progress  was

Those  Convicted. 

Indianapolis,  Ind.,  Dec.  28.^ 
Thirty-eight  labor  union  officials 
today  were  found  "guilty"  of 
complicity  in  the  AIcNamara 
dynamite  plots,  including  the 
wrecking  of  the  Los  Angeles 
Times'  building. 

Frank  M.  Ryan,  president  of 
the  International  Association  of 
Bridge  and  Structural  Iron 
Workers,  and  Fred  Moonev  of 
Duluth,  Minn.,  were  among  those 
convicted.  They,  with  others, 
were  accused  of  using  the  union's 
funds  to  destroy  the  prope'-ty  of 
contractors  who  refused  to  recog- 
nize the  union. 

Only  two  defendants  were 
found  "not  guilty."  Thev  are 
Daniel  Buckley  of  Davenport 
Iowa,  and  Herbert  G.  Seiffert  of 
Milwaukee,  Wis. 

All  those  adjudged  guiltv  were 
found  guilty  on  all  the  counts  as 
charged  in  the  indictments. 

The  jury  was  discharged,  and

HAVE  FAITH 
INJOONEY 

Duluth  Union  Men  Still  Be- 
lieve He  Is  Innocent 
of  Crime. 


Duluth  union  men  believe  in  the  in- 
nocence of  Fred  J.  Mooney,  convicted 
with  other  defendants  in  the  Indian- 
apolis   dynamite    trial. 

The  union  men  of  Duluth  have  etood 
by  Mooney  from  the  first.  When  he 
was  arre8t«!d,  they  declared  that  a  mis- 
take had  been  made  and  that  he  would 
be  released  later.  Today  they  are  just 
as  Arm  in  their  declarations  of  belief 
in   hia   innocence. 

"Mooney  is  the  victim  of  circum- 
stances," Sdld  W.  E.  McEwen,  secretary 
of  the  Minnesota  Federation  of  Labor, 
tfday.  "Tliey  bunched  the  sheep  with 
the  g-oats  in  the  Indianapolis  trial,  and 
Mooney,  one  of  the  eheep,  met  the 
same  fate  as  the  goats  at  the  hands 
of  the  Jury. 

"I  have  known  Mooney  for  a  long 
time.  I  know  that  he  is  an  honest, 
consclentiojs,  law-abiding  man.  I  do 
not  believe  he  knowingly  had  anything 
to  do  with  dynamiting,  and  1  believe 
liis  convict  on  is  a  great  mistake." 

other  labor  union  men  expressed 
similar  sentiments.  Mooney  has  lived 
in  Duluth  several  years  and  has  always 
been  known  as  a  faithful  workman  ai\d 
a  good  citizen.  His  arrest  in  connec- 
tion with  the  dynamiting  oases  came 
as  a  8urpr;se  to  his  friends  In  Duluth 
and  his  ctnvictlon  is  a  still  greater 
surprise. 

The  Sfat«'  Federation  of  Labor  raised 
a  fund  of  $1,500  to  engage  special 
counsel  for  Mooney  and  Charles  Beum 
of  Minneapolis,  who  was  also  con- 
victed.

WILL  UNCLE  SAM  DELIVER 
DULUTHIANS  THEffl!!  EGGS  ? 


Housewives   Interested  in 

Possibilities  of  the  New 

Parcel  Post. 


Farmers  Might  Mail  Butter 

and  Milk  Direct  to 

Consumers. 


ALWAYS  KELIABLB 


OAK  HALLBLDQ. 


Tlie  sug-Kestlon  of  Mrs.  Julian  Heath 
of  New  York,  president  of  the  Na- 
tional Housewives'  league,  that  the 
pai'cel  post  may  be  used  to  reduce  the 
high  cost  of  living  by  having  produce, 
for  instance,  sent  directly  from  the 
farm  to  the  consumer,  finds  a  re- 
sponsive chord  in  many  Dulutli  hearts, 
if  comment  on  the  street  can  be 
trusted. 

Mrs.  Heath  suggests  that  fruit,  fresh 
eggs,  country  butter,  vegetables  and 
the  like  be  shipped  direct  from  the 
farm  to  the  city  customer;  that  tiie 
farmers  be  enrolled  so  that  house- 
wives within  the  fifty-mile  zone  can 
avail  themselves  of  tlie  opportunity  of 
ordering  direct.  It  is  believed  that  the 
farmers  will  prefer  to  deal  with  the 
consumer  direct  instead  of  through  the 
commission  merchants  and  others,  and 
it  is  thought  that  the  farmer  will  get 
a  better  price  for  his  produce  and  the 
consumer  a  lower  one,  thus  working  a 
benefit   both   ways. 

There  are  numerous  places  within  the 
fifty-mile  zone  of  Duluth  which  could 
be  counted  upon  to  furnish  produce, 
such  as  eggs,  butter,  cheese,  vege- 
tables and  even  milk,  which  can  be 
carried  In  the  mails  after  Jan.  1,  if 
properly  secured.  Such  points  as  Bar- 
num,  which  is  thirty-eight  miles  away, 
Moose  Lake,  which  is  forty-eight  miles, 
Cloquet,  which  is  forty-one  miles,  and 


Carlton,  which  ;  Is  (thirty-eight  miles, 
are  all  within  the'  zone  of  cheapest 
rate.  Oarnuni  is  reeoy^rilzod  aa  one  of 
the  best  dalryfrfg-  owAturs  in  this  part 
of    the    countrfr 

I'octt   oC  Ppatnse. 

In  the  fifty-mile]  r^one  the  cost  of 
shipment  by  parcel  post  is  as  follows: 
One  pound.  5c;  2  pounds,  8c;  3  pounds, 
lie;  4  pounds,  14c;  5  pounds,  17c;  6 
pounds,  20c;  7  pounds,  23c;  i  pounds, 
26c;  9  pounds,  2ac;  10  pounds,  32c;  11 
pounds,    35c. 

Eggs  run  on  the  average  ten  to  a 
pound.  Taking  the  basis  oi  five  dozen 
to  figure  on,  niaklns  six  pounds,  ex- 
clusive of  the  case,  the  cost  of  ship- 
ment would  be  20  cents  or  4  cents  a 
dozen.  Of  course  the  case  would  be 
extra,  but  now  that  the  parcel  post  is 
an  established  fact.  It  is  fully  expected 
by  the  department  that  some  inventive 
genius  will  put  forth  cases  for  eggs, 
substitutes  for  bottles,  etc.,  so  light  as 
to  make  their  carrying  charge  exceed- 
ingly low.  The  cost  of  4  cents  a  dozen 
for  carrying,  or.  as  one  man  suggested 
this  morning,  adding  an  additional  cent 
for  the  carrying  cost  of  the  case,  will 
much  more  than  offset,  it  is  believed, 
the  margin  between  the  producer  now 
and  the  price  to  the  consumer.  It  is 
figured  that  the  differential  is  some- 
thing around  12  or  16  cents.  The  bene- 
fit, of  course,  would  extend  to  vege- 
tables in  a  most  i^Aduounced  way.  It 
la  even  suggestedTJEhat  each  day  th# 
city  householder  oBKld  have  his  milk 
and  cream,  as  well  as  his  butter  and 
eggs  and  the  other  produce  sent  in 
from  the  country,  especially  during  the 
winter.  As  has  been  suggested  by  the 
department,  somebody  will  soon,  in- 
vent a  substitute  for  breakable  bottles 
for  the  purpose  of  shipping  liquids  and 
that  will  make  the  shipping  of  milk 
highly   successful.,.*. 

It  has  al.so  been  suggested  that  a 
bright  man  might  get  to  one  of  these 
dairy  and  poultry  and  vegetable  cen- 
ters, buy  up  the  produce  there  and 
deal  direct  with  the  city  consumer, 
working  up  an  €%ormous  busine.ss 
through  the  peircel^ost.  It  Is  fully 
expected  that  fhla  •sviU  be  done  at  all 
parts  of  the  country*  Duluth  is  espe- 
cially favored' with -one  of  the  most 
productive  sections  tight  at  her  door

Twice  Tony  Moon  asked  for  a  drink 
of  water  as  he  lay  on  the  operating 
table  at  St.  Mary's  hospital  last  eve- 
ning. 

Sustained  by  an  iron  nerve  he  made 
no  other  sound  or  request  as  the  doc- 
tors cut  away  the  remnants  of  the 
lower  part  of  his  leg.  Refusing  to 
take  any  anesthetic  for  the  operation, 
which  was  to  leave  him  a  cripple  for 
life,  he  endured  the  ordeal  without 
visible  signs  of  the  agony  which  he 
was  suffering.  He  spoke  to  ask  for 
water  and  drank  several  s'w^allows 
when  it  was  brought  to  him  by  the 
white  clad  attendant. 

His  courage  in  the  operating  room 
was  like  that  which  he  showed  from 
the  time  he  was  liurt  in  the  woods 
twenty  miles  back  of  Duluth  Heights. 
With  his  leg  mashed  and  torn  he  aided 
the  men  who  picked  him  from  the  road 
by  telling  them  how  to  lift  and  carry 
him  and  how  to  bundle  him  in  the 
sleigh.  Undergoing  excruciating  pain 
he  retained  consciousness  and  was  the 
most  cheerful  man  of  the  party  which 
drove  him  over  the  long,  rough  roads 
to  Duluth  Heights.  There  the  sleigh 
was  met  by  Ford's  ambulance,  to  which 
he  was  transferred  and  hurried  to  St. 
Mary's  hospital,  where  he  was  at  once 
placed  upon  the  operating  table.  A 
glance  was  sufficient  to  indicate  that 
the   leg  had   to   be  amputated. 

Both  runners  of  a  heavily  loaded 
logging  sleigh  passed  over  Moon's  leg 
yesterday  morning.  He  was  "riding  the 
roll,"  that  is,  standing  on  the  base  of 
the  tongue  in  front  of  the  load,  when 
he  was  thrown  off  by  an  unexpectedly 
heavy  lurch  when  one  side  struck  a 
deep  rut  In  the  track.  He  laid  there 
half  an  hour  before  he  was  discovered. 
Men  came  back  to  look  for  him  when 
they  found  the  team  without  a  driver. 

Moon  will  recover. 

His  case  is  similar  to  those  of  many 
c tiler  men  hurt  while  working  in  the 
woods.  They  are  a  long  ways  from 
towns  with  hospitals  and  doctors  and 
they  have  to  undtrgo  much  hardship 
and  suffering  while  being  brought  con- 
siderable distances  in  crude  vehicles 
over  the  worst  kinds  of  roads.  Every 
winter  many  such  cases  are  taken  In 
at  the  local  hospitals.

"Three  times  and  out,"  said  the 
judge  to  John  Derry,  better  known  as 
Donovan,  this  morning  when  he  was 
brought  in  with  the  grist  today.  John 
was  brought  in  the  day  before  Christ- 
tas,  the  day  after  Christmas  and 
c'gain  last  night.  Each  time  he  was 
loaded  to  the  gunnels  with  Bowery 
bocze.  Twice  the  court  gave  him  the 
opportunity  to  go  to  work  for  which 
he  begged,  but  this  morning  his  plea 
didn't    work.     He    went    over    the    hill 

for    thirty   days.

Nothing  but  superlatives  went  with 
George  McMahon  when  he  was  brought 
into  court  today  to  answer  a  charge 
of  vagrancy.  Creorg<^  is  70  years  old 
and  among  other  things  his  long  ca- 
rter has  taught  him  how  to  sling  the 
lingo. 

"Wen  I  works.  Judge,  I'm  de  hardest 
workln'  man  you  ever  saw;  w'en  I 
saves  I'm  de  8avinge.«tt  guy  wot  ever 
squeezed  a  copper;  w'en  I  drinks  I'm

Sire,  you  bet.  I'm  guilty.  Nuttln' 
cross-eyed  about  de  charge  at  all,  at 
all." 

When    he    concluded    the    peroration 

the  court  handed  him  $40  and  costs  or 

thirty  days  In  the  county  jail.     George 

said    that   with    the  advent   of   the    new 

year  he   has   been   considering  being  a 

hard  working  man  again  and  wanted  a 

f'hrlstmas      present.      "Whereupon      the 

ludge    agreed    to    suspend    sentence    if 

hf   would  get  a  job  or  get  out  of  the

Because  you  work  at  a  place  you  are 
not  prlvleged  to  help  yourself  to  such 
parts  of  the  stock  as  happen  to  suit 
your  fancy.  Tom  Bukovlch  thought  he 
was  and  his  thoughts  in  that  direc- 
tion drew  him  a  straight  sentence  of 
five  days  over  the  hill  when  he  was 
convicted  in  police  court  yesterday  aft- 
ernoon of  the  theft  of  six  loaves  of 
bread  and  five  dozen. doug'nnuts.  Tom 
was  delivering  for  James  Gray,  baker, 
and  brought  the  Stuff  to  his  landlady 
to  help  out  her  menu.  He  said  that  he 
didn't  steal  tlie  bakery  products  be- 
cause he  had  4  right  to  take  them  as 
long  as  he  worked  there.  He  added 
that  a  bartender *bipArd3  at  the  same 
place  and  that  he  often  brings  home 
liquid  refreshments  for  which  he  was

Swiping  furs  is  not  a  profitable  oc- 
cupation. Yesterday  afternoon  Elmer 
Copeman  grabbed  a  fur  coat  valued 
at  $10  from  th*^  front  of  A.  Shapiro's 
store  on  the  Bowery.  He  took  to  his 
heels  when  vShapiro  gave  chase  and 
ran  plump  into  the  arms  of  Patrolman

The  police  have  as  yet  obtained  no 
trace  of  Mrs.  Ella  Brown.  A  woman 
of  that  name  sent  a  Christmas  present 
to  one  "Dr."  Otto  William  Hauck  at 
San  Diego,  Cal.  The  doctor  is  In 
duress  yile  for  having  flimflammed 
credulous  women  out  of  their  cash  un- 
der promise  of  marriage.  What  the 
authorities  wi-sh  to  ascertain  now  Is 
whether  or  not  Mrs.  Brown  fell  for 
the  wiles  of  the  "doctor." 

Coventry's  meat  inarket  on  East  Su- 
perior street  between  Second  and  Third 
avenues  was  broken  into  some  time 
during  the  night  and  a  considerable 
quantity  of  meat.^  and  fish  stolen.  So 
much  was  missed  that  the  police  think

turned by  the  September  grand  Jury, 
is  due  to  the  machinations  of  Smiths 
relatives  and  friends  who  have  induced 
the  state's  principal  witness,  he,  be- 
lieves, to  stay  out  of  the  jurisdiction 
uf   the    court. 

Smith's  attorney,  O.  J.  Larson,  was 
in  court  this  morning  to  argue  a  mo- 
tion to  dismiss  the  indictments  against 
Smith.  The  dismissal  was  asked  for 
on  the  grounds  that  Smith  has  been 
denied  a  speedy  trial  and  that  he  is 
held  without  due  process  of  law.  As- 
sistant County  Attorney  Greene  a/p- 
peared  for  the  state  and  read  affidavits 
in  which  he  charged  that  Smiths 
friends  and  relatives  were  alone  re- 
sponsible for  the  delay  in  bringing  the 
accused   man    to    trial. 

Motion  Denied. 

Judge  Dlbeil,  before  whom  the  mat- 
ter was  taken  up,  denied  the  motion. 
In  view  of  the  fact  that  Smith  has 
been  in  jail  for  five  months  waiting 
trial  on  five  counts  against  him,  the 
court  allowed  his  release  on  bail. 
Bonds  were  fixed  at  |500  in  one  of 
the  cases.  Prosecutor  Greene  did  not 
insist  upon  bail  being  demanded  for 
each  of  the  other  cases.  The  case  was 
continued   to    the  January   term. 

J.  A.  Cavanaugh  of  Chicago,  man- 
ager of  the  H.  H.  Hixon  company,  a 
wholesale  coffee  house,  appeared 
against  Smith  as  a  witness  for  the 
state  at  the  accused  man's  hearing  in 
municipal  court  at  the  time  of  his  ar- 
rest and  also  before  the  September 
giand  jury,  which  brought  in  five 
counts    against    him. 

Mr.  Greene  stated  in  his  affidavit 
that  owing  to  Cavanaugh's  apparent 
interest  in  securing  Smith's  conviction 
tliat  he  did  not  deem  it  necessary  to 
subpoena  him  to  appear  at  the  trial  at 
the  time  Cavanaugh  was  here  in  at- 
tendance at  the  sessions  of  the  Sep- 
tember grand  jury. 

Cavanaugh.  Mr.  Greene  claims.  Is  a 
vital  and  necessary  witness  in  the 
cases  pending.  Without  him,  the  state 
cannot  proceed.  The  witness,  he  said, 
is  without  the  court's  jurisdiction  and 
cannot  be  subpoenaed  unless  he  comes 
within  the  boundary  lines  of  Minne- 
sota. 

The  affidavit  of  Mr.  Greene  further 
stated  that  one  of  the  cases  had  been 
set  for  trial  on  Sept.  30;  that  he  noti- 
fitd  Cavanaug'n  by  telegram  to  be  on 
hand  for  trial  and  received  word  that 
he  could  not  be  present.  Mr.  Greene 
as.serted  that  he  wired  a  second  tele- 
gram asking  Cavanaugh  to  state  when 
ho  could  be  on  hand.  This  telegram 
was  never  answered.  Other  corre- 
ei  ondence  directed  t  j  Cavanaugh  and 
the  Hixon  company  from  the  county 
attorney's  office  has  been  Ignored,  it 
is    claimed. 

Hugh  J.  MnClearii,  attorney  for  Nor- 
man S.  Marshall,  trustee  in  bank- 
ruptcy for  the  Northland  Mercantile 
company,  and  who  Is  also  attorney  for 
certain  of  the  creditors,  made  an  affi- 
davit which  was  read  in  court  this 
inornlner. 

Mr  McClearn  stated  that  he  had  vis- 
ited H.  H.  Hixon  of  the  H.  H.  Hixon 
company  and  J.  A.  Cavanaugh,  mana- 
ger and  credit  man  of  the  same  firm, 
at  their  Chicago  office  sometime  be- 
fore embezzlement  charges  were  lodged 
against  Smith.  At  tha.t  time  owing 
to  dealings  which  Smith  had  w'ith  the 
firm  which  they  represented,  both  were 
wiling  and  anxious  to  assl.st  In  prose- 
outing  Smith.  Hixon,  he  claims,  or- 
dered Cavanaugh  in  his  (McClearn's> 
presence  to  go  to  Duluth  and  give  the 
authorities  whatever  information  he 
had  at  his  disposal  regarding  the  al- 
leged  embezzlement. 

Mr.  McClearn  stated  that  he  was  in- 
formed by  the  prosecuting  attorney, 
Mr.  Greene,  of  the  inability  of  the  state 
to  induce  Cavanaugh  to  attend  the 
trial  when  it  was  set  in  Septem^eV. 
McClearn  said  that  Tie  went  to  Chi- 
cago to  see  Cavanaugh  on  Dec.  20  la.st. 
In  the  meantime.  Smith  has  been  in- 
dicted, tried  and  acquitted  on  a  similar 
charge  which  Involved  a  different 
statement    of    facts. 

Importuned  Witnesnes. 

On  Attorney  McClearn's  second  visit 
to  Chicago,  he  claims  that  he  was  In- 
formed by  Hixon  and  Cavanaugh  that 
Smith's  mother  and  brother  and  other 
frlfnds  or  relatives  had  been  impor- 
tuning them  for  months  not  to  appear 
and  testify  against  Smith.

According  to  McClearn's  affidavit, 
Hixon  appeared  to  be  tired  of  being 
bothered  with  the  Int'erventlon  of 
Smith's  relatives  and  friends  and 
stated  that  he  did  not  want  them  to 
be  calling  on  him  again  as  they  had 
been  doing  for  weeks  past. 

Mr.  McClearn  stated  that  he  had 
taken  the  matter  up  with  R.  J.  "White- 
lock,  a  director  of  the  Credit  Men's 
National  association,  who  had  promised 
to  try  to  Induce  Cavanaugh  to  attend 
the  trial.  Mr.  Clearn  believed  that  Cav- 
anaugh could  be  prevailed  upon  to 
come  to  Duluth  and  appear  at  the 
trial  of  te  case,  which  has  been  con- 
tinued   to   the   next   term. 

Attorney  J.  A.  Hanks  of  this  city  Is 
attorney  for  the  Hixon  company.  In 
Mr.  Greene's  affidavit,  it  is  claimed, 
that  Attorney  Hanks  refused  his 
(Greene's)  request  that  he  use  his 
good  graces  In  getting  the  witness 
Cavanaugh,  to  appear  for  the  trial  of 
the    case. 

fnder  the  procedure  governing 
criminal  law  In  this  state  testimony 
cannot  be  taken  by  deposition  in  a 
criminal  case,  as  Is  customarv  and  per- 
missible In  a  civil  action.  This.  Mr 
Greene  claims.  Is  a  relic  of  the  old 
common  law  which  excludes  all  testi- 
mony not  except  that  given  In  the 
presence    of    the    defendant. 

"This  old  practice  should  be  done 
nway  with,"  declared  Mr.  Greene,  "and 
the  state  should  be  allowed  to  take 
depositions  from  witnesses  in  criminal 
prosecutions."

WASHINGTON  MAY  GET 
SELF-GOVERNMENT. 

Washington,  Dec.  28. — An  energetic 
.fffort  will  be  made  to  give  the  District 
of  Columbia  local  self-government  un- 
der a  commission  plan  similar  to  that 
in  operation  In  Des  Moines.  Represen- 
tatives Prouty  of  Iowa  will  lead  the 
Hght. 

Complete  reorganization  of  the  gov- 
ernment of  Washington  so  as  to  give 
the  people  oT'^he  district  not  only  the 
right  of  suffrage,  but  to  Invest  thorn 
with  the  initiative,  referendum  and  re- 
call, reserving  to  congress  onlv  the 
power  to  veto  any  municipal  legislation 
passed  by  the  city  council,  Is  provided 
for  in  a  bill  which  Mr.  Prouty  will  in- 
troduce af  the  beginning  of  the  extra 
session  of  the  Sixty-third  congress. 
The  bill  may  provide  also  for  woman 
suffrage. 

The  real  purpose  behind  the  bill  is 
not  so  much  to  give  the  people  of  the 
district  the  right  of  suffrage,  which  Mr. 
Prouty  believes  they  should  have,  as  It 
is  to  take  from  them  Federal  aid  In 
street  Improvement  and  In  the  main- 
tenance of  the  public  schools.  Explain- 
ing his  measure,  he  says  he  believes 
the  city  of  Washington  should  be  placed 
on  a  parity  with  other  American  cities, 
and  to  accomplish  this  end  he  is  re- 
modeling the  Des  Moines  plan  of  mu- 
nicipal government  so  as  to  make  it  ap- 
plicable  to   Washington.

F.  B.  KELLOGG 
LAUDUOURTS 

St.  Paul  Attorney  Criticizes 

Assailants  of  Federal 

Judiciary. 


Makes  Address  Before  Ne- 
braska Bar  Association 
at  Omaha. 


Omaha,  Neb.,  Dec.  28.— Frank  B.  Kel- 
logg of  St.  Paul,  .speaking  before  the 
meeting  of  the  Nebraska  State  Bar 
association  here  today,  vigorously  de- 
fended the  integrity  of  tlie  American 
judiciary  and  condemned  what  he  said 
was  a  disposition  in  these  days  to 
criticize  the  courts. 

He  declared  that  of  all  the  branches 
of  the  government,  the  Judicial,  in  ills 
opinion,  was  the  least  subject  to  the 
e.\ercise  of  arbitrary  power,  to  scandal 
or  to  improper  influences.  Mr.  Kel- 
logg said  he  believed  it  to  be  a  fact 
that  the  supreme  court  of  the  United 
States  is  the  most  liberal  branch  of 
this  government,  and  that  it  has  al- 
ways been  solicitous  of  the  rights  of 
the  people.     He  said  In  part: 

"There  seems  to  be  a  disposition  In 
these    days    to    criticize    the    courts.     A 

rtain  class  of  political  orators  and 
the  public  press  have  been  intem- 
perate and  unreasonable  In  such  criti- 
cism. 

Good    In   DiscuHHion. 

"I  do  no  deprecate  discussion  of  Ju- 
dicial decisions  and  reasonable  criti- 
cism thereof.  Such  discussion  often 
brings  good  results.  But  what  I  do 
deplore  is  reckless  and  unfounded  state- 
ments which  tend  to  destroy  respect 
for  the  judicial  branch  of  the  govern- 
ment, and  to  weaken  its  authority  and 
influence  in  the  commonwealth.  For 
in  a  republic,  government,  in  its  final 
analysis,  is  the  will  of  the  majortty. 
The  constitutional  restrictions,  public 
statutes,  treaties  and  public  Institu- 
tions are  moulded  by  the  final  Judg- 
ment of  the  people,  which  Is  the  ulti- 
mate tribunal.  Respect  for  laws  and 
for  the  courts  Is  absolutely  a  neces- 
sary basis  of  all  good  government. 
Vufonnded    CbarKcs. 

"We  often  hear  it  said  that  the 
Judges  exercise  arbitrary  power,  that 
they  make  and  unmake  laws,  and,  to 
use  a  popular  expression,  that  they  are 
the  'last  entrenchment  of  vested  in- 
terests.' " 

Mr.  Kellogg  argued  at  length  against 
these  alleged  attacks  on  the  Judiciary, 
because,  he  said,  he  felt  that  the  reit- 
eration of  these  unfounded  charges 
has  a  prejudicial  effect  upon  the  public 
mind.     He  said: 

"For  one  hundred  and  twenty-five 
years  the  courts  of  this  country  have 
passed  upon  public  questions  of  great 
importance  to  the  nation  and  individ- 
uals, qnd  it  Is  rare,  Indeed,  that  any 
claim  has  been  made  derogatory  of  the 
high  character  and  ability  of  the- 
bench. 

Validity   of   Laws. 

"It  Is  said  the  prerogative  exercised 
by  the  courts  to  declare  laws- uncon- 
stitutional is  an  arbitrary  assumption 
of  power  without  authority  in  the 
Constitution  or  precedent  of  govern- 
ment. These  charges  have  been  made 
In  the  newspapers  and  upon  the  stump 
by  grave  United  States  senators.  Not 
only  are  they  historically  wrong,  but 
the  controlling  principle  of  our  con- 
stitutional government  Is  the  creation 
cf  the  Judicial  tribunal  whose  greatest 
prerogative  is  the  power  to  declare 
laws  and  executive  acts  invalid  when 
they  are  in  violation  of  the  Consti- 
tution   of    the    United    States." 

Waiving  extended  discussion  under 
this  head,  Mr.  Kellogg  said:  "It  is 
sufficient  here  to  say  that  no  con- 
stitutional government  ever  existed  or 
can  exist  without  some  independent 
tribunal  to  decide  whether  the  legis- 
lature has  exceeded  Its  conetitutlonal 
power  In   enacting  statutes." 

Has   PreMer«-ed   Nation. 

"The  people  (few,  I  am  glad  to  say), 
who  are  denouncing  the  supreme  court 
as  reactionary  and  the  'last  resort  of 
the  vested  interests,'  should  remember 
that  but  for  the  decisions  of  thatcourt, 
commencing  with  those  written  by 
John  Marshall  and  ending  with  the 
latest  decision  under  the  commerce 
clause,    the    nation      would    have    been 

§owerless    before      the      greatest    com- 
inatlons    of    wealth    and    power    that 
any    age    has   ever   seen." 

Mr.  Kellogg  cited  many  Instances  In 
en  endeavor  to  show  that  the  Judiciary 
has  ever  set  Its  face  forward,  and  that 
reforms  have  been  Its  constant  aim, 
ar  d  progress  In  Judicial  procedure  Its 
watch -word. 

Mr.  Kellogg  said  he  did  not  believe 
that  it  is  the  desire  of  the  bar  gen- 
erally to  continue  modes  of  procedure 
and  practice  which  tend  to  delay  the 
administration  of  justice,  to  the  ex- 
pense and  detriment  of  the  people. 

"It  certainly  Is  not  to  the  Interests 
of  lawyers,"  he  said,  "for  whatever 
tends  to  the  advantage  of  the  people 
generally,  tends  to  the  advantage  of 
the  bar,  and  he  best  serves  his  profes- 
sion who  alms  at  the  highest  standard 
In  the  enactment  of  laws  and  the  ad- 
ministration of  Justice:  for  no  pro- 
fession can  succeed  unless  it  has  the 
respect  and  confidence  of  the  people. 
The  greatest  asset  of  the  bar  is  that 
r<"spect,  and  the  trust  and  confidence 
which  leads  men  to  place  their  prop- 
erty and  their  lives  In  the  hands  of 
tluir   counsel."

BARBER  *  MdPnERSOir. 


I 


Sheer  and  unadorned  simplicity 
marks  the  character  and  equipment  of 
Islam's  most  formidable  individual  ad- 
versary. Rev.  Samuel  M.  Zwemer,  D.  D., 
writes  William  T.  Ellis  In  the  January 
Century.  He  presents  a  contrasted  pic- 
ture of  a  lone  knight  errant  who  nas 
become  leader  of  a  hope  no  longer  for- 
lorn. Twenty  years  ago  he  was  only 
one  more  of*  "those  missionaries,"  a 
big-boned,  somewhat  crude  Dutchman 
from  the  wilds  of  Michigan,  harking 
straight  from  Hope  college  and  New 
Brunswick  seminary  to  Arabia,  where 
he  opened  the  Arabian  Mission  of  the 
Dutch  Reformed  church.  The  zest  for 
daring  hard  things  must  have  been  In 
the  blood,  for  he  was  born  to  the  purl, 
tanlsm  of  a  Calvinistic  clergyman's 
home.  While  yet  a  student,  he  Joined 
issue  with  the  commonly  accepted  Idea 
of  the  missionary  folk  that  it  Is  In  vain 
to  attempt  ml.sslons  among  the  Mos- 
lems of  Arabia.  The  romance  of  the 
desert  had  cast  its  spell  upon  his  Im- 
agination. Then  was  born  In  his  heart 
I  hat  great  passion  to  win  Islam  for  the 
cross. 

He  learned  to  know  Arabia  at  first 
hand,  being  stationed  at  Bosra,  Bahrein, 
and  elsewhere,  having  crossed  the 
Oman  peninsula,  and  having  twice 
penetrated  into  the  Yemen,  and  into 
Hassa.  His  zeal  was  imparted  to 
others,  and  the  mission  that  he  began 
has  steadilv  grown  until  at  the  pres- 
ent time  the  University  of  Michigan, 
in  co-operation  with  the  Dutch  Re- 
formed church,  is  maintaining  missions 
at  various  points  In  Arabia.  Zwemer's 
own  brother  was  one  of  his  recruits, 
and  his  life  was  sacrificed  to  the  cause. 

It  has  sometimes  seemed  to  persons 
who  have  heard  Zwemer's  terrific  In- 
dictments of  Islam  before  great  audi- 
ences of  men  that  his  militancy  par- 
took somewhat  of  the  nature  of  a  per- 
sonal vendetta.  He  has  reason  to 
have  a  blood  feud  with  the  followers 
of  the  Prophet.  I  openly  taxed  him 
with  this  one  day,  but  the  Idea  seemed 
new  to  him.  He  mused  over  It  quiz- 
xlcally  for  a  minute,  as  If  in  Introspec- 
tion, and  then  he  slowly  shook  his  head 
and  said:  "I  don't  think  so.  I  want 
to  help  the  Moslems."  Certainly  he 
has  made  sacrifices  for  them  to  a  point 
thttt  ttx«    world    would   count   Qulxotlo.

You  Never  Tasted  More 
Delicious  Coffee 

than  that  brewed  in  the  Electric  Coffee  Percolator. 
Nearly  every  housewife  knows  the  advantage  of  a  per- 
colator over  the  old-fashioned  method  of  making  cof- 
fee. But  the  electric  percolator  adds  so  much  in  con- 
venience, safety  and  decorativeness  when  used  on  the 
dinins  table,  that  it  is  vastly  preferable  to  any  stove  or 
alcohol-heated  percolator. 

The  Electric  Coffee  Percolator 

is  just  a  suggestion  as  to  the  many  delightful  electrical 
cooking  utensils  that  are  intended  for  use  on  the  dining 
table  and  that  are  possible  only  in  the  electric-lighted 
home  These  utensils  and  the  electrically  operated  time- 
and-labor-saving  devices,  operating  at  very  low  cost, 
have  solved  the  servant  question  in  many  a  home.

Vice  President  of  American

an  Optimist. 


Says  Duluth  Will  Feel  the 

Effects  of  Increased 

Activity. 


Frank  Baachus,  vice  president  of  the 
American  Steel  &  Wire  company;  D.  R. 
Merriman,  assistant  sales  manager  of 
the  same  corporation,  and  Neil  McLeod, 
traveling  representative  of  the  com- 
pany, with  headquarters  at  St.  Paul, 
are  h>  :  •■  t^lay.  Vice  President  Baachus 
and  Mr.  .Merriman  are  from  Chica§fo 
and   are  at   the   Head   of  the  Lakes  on 

their  annual  trip.  Duringr  the  noon  hour 
today  Mr.  Baachus  delivered  a  short 
addrt.Hs  to  the  traveling  salesmen  of 
the    K'U.'y-How-Thomson   company. 

"Business  in  1913  is  going  to  be  big-," 
said  Mr.  Baachus.  "You  people  at  the 
Head  of  the  Lakes  will  feel  tho  bene- 
ficial effects  of  it.  The  demand  for 
steel  is  very  high  over  the  country 
and  we  find  that  business,  aa  reflected 
by   the   demand   for   manufactured   and 


raw  products.  Is  very  good  and  will 
also  increase  during  the  year.  I  have 
never  much  to  say  to  the  newspapers, 
but  you  can  make  It  strong  that  this 
is  going  to  be  a  very  gdod  business 
year." 

Mr.  McLeod  stated  that  there  was  a 
very  lieavy  demand  for  steel  at  the 
present  time,  and  that  business  in 
general  was  going  to  be  very  large, 
as  the  plans  of  some  of  the  big  cor- 
porations are  upon  a  very  extensive 
scale.

Aged    North    Dakota    Woman    Does 
This,  Escaping  Burning  Home. 

Grand  Forks,  N.  D.,  Dec.  2S. — (.'Spe- 
cial to  The  Herald.) — Eighty-four 
years  old  and  bed  ridden,  Mrs.  Delia 
Ekerman  yesterday  crept  from  her 
couch  through  a  window  and  dropped 
Into  the  snow,  crawling  on  her  hands 
and  knees  In  her  nightdress  over  100 
feet  through  drifts  to  a  barn,  when 
her  home  was  destroyed  by  fire.  Other 
members  of  the  family  were  away 
when  Are  attacked  the  Ekerman  home 
near  Reynolds,  and  the  aged  woman 
did  not  know  there  was  anything 
wrong  till  the  upper  part  of  the  build- 
ing was  In  flames.  It  was  a  half  hour 
after  she  reached  the  barn  that  neigh- 
bors were  attracted  by  the  flames  and 
came   to  her  relief.     She   may   recover.

TRAVELING 
OPTHMISTS 

Commercial  Salesmen  for 
Duluth  Houses  Say  North- 
west Is  Prosperous. 


Duluth    Business    Is    In- 
creasing and  Outlook  for 
1913  1s  Bright. 


Commercial  travelers  who  cover  the 
Northwest  for  Duluth  houses  sound  a 
ringing   note    of   optimism. 

They  say  the  Northwest  is  prosper- 
ous and  Duluth  is  getting  a  large 
share  of  the  resulting  business.  Du- 
luth trade  territory  is  expanding  and 
the  traveling  men  are  looking  forward 
to  the  greatest  year  in  history. 

C.  M.  Sullivan,  wlio  travels  for  the 
Gowan-Peyton-Congdon  company  In 
tho  Copper  country.  Is  authority  for 
the  statement  that .  business  In  gen- 
eral in  that  section  of  the  Northwest 
is  very  much  better  than  It  was  a 
year  ago,  and  that  consequently  the 
outlook  for  business  for  the  Duluth 
houses  Is  very  much  better  than  it 
was  at    this   time  a  year   ago. 

J.  H.  Johnson,  who  represents  the 
same  house  in  the  district  of  the  state 
around  Fergus  Falls,  stated  that  the 
residents  of  that  part  of  Minnesota 
have  more  money ,  than  was  the  case  a 
year  ago,  that  tlie  crops  of  last  fall 
were  better  than  those  of  the  previ- 
ous fall,  and  that  the  outlook  for  a 
very  good  business  was  extremely 
rosy. 

G.  Mclnnes,  another  Gowan-Peyton- 
Congdon  representative,  who  travels 
In  the  section  of  Wadena  and  Detroit, 
Minn.,  stated  that  the  general  condi- 
tion of  that  section  of  the  state  Is 
very  good,  this  being  accounted  for 
by  good  crops  and  the  belief  of  the 
people  that  this  coming  year  Is  going 
to  be  one  of  the  best  for  many  years. 
Mr.  Mclnnes  stated  the  prospects  for 
Increased  business  are  very  bright. 
D«kota«i    Are    ProsperouH. 

H.  F.  Sansted,  who  travels  in  the 
vicinity  of  Jamestown,  N.  D.,  expressed 
the  opinion  that  the  business  of  the 
coming  year  will  greatly  exceed  that 
transacted  in  the  year  that  is  coming 
to  an  end,  and  that  In  general  the 
business  all  througli  the  Dakotas  will 
show    an    improvement. 

M.  O.  Rowe,  who  travels  for  the 
Kelley-How-Thomson  company  in  the 
vicinity  of  Iron  River.  Mich.,  stated 
that  In  general  business  of  every  na- 
ture was  in  a  more  prosperous  condi- 
tion than  was  the  case  of  a  year  ago, 
and  that  the  foundation  has  been  laid 
for  a  very  good  Increase  for  the  com- 
ing yea  I". 

George  Taylor,  Montana  representa- 
tive for  the  company,  making  his  head- 
ciuarter.=!  at  Bozeman.  reports  business 
conditions  In  the  West  /lourisning. 
Crops  in  Montana  were  a  decided  Im- 
provement over  those  of  the  year  pre- 
vious, he  stated,  and  in  addition  Mr. 
Taylor  stated  that  general  business 
was  on  a  better  foundation  than  It 
had    been    for  some    time   past. 

Fred  Blodgett,  traveling  for  the  Kel- 
ley-How-Thomson company  In  the 
Crookston  territory,  was  another  of 
the  representatives  of  the  company 
to  predict  Increased  business  foe  the 
next  year.  R.  K.  "Willis  of  Vienna,  S. 
D.,  and  P.  J.  Nelson  of  Sauk  Center, 
two  boosters  for  Duluth  and  Duluth- 
made  goods,  predicted  one  of  the  best 
years  in  the  history  of  their  experi- 
ence with  the  firm,  stating  that  gen- 
eral conditions  are  the  best  they  nave 
been   for  years. 


JURY  CONVICTS  38 
OF  PLOTS  TO  BLOW 
UP  NOW-UNION  WORK 

(Continued  from   page   1.) 


court  adjourned  until  10  a.  m., 
Monday,  when  sentence  will  be 
imposed  by  Judge  Anderson. 

Seiffert  and  Buckley,  the  only  two 
men  out  of  the  forty  labor  union  of- 
ficials to  be  adjudged  not  guilty,  im- 
media.tely  were  discharged  from  cus- 
tody. 

After  Judge  Anderson  had  cleared 
the  court  room  of  all  spectators  and 
the  families  of  the  defendants,  the 
thirty-eight  prisoners  were  taken  in 
custody  by  Deputy  United  States  mar- 
shals and  special  detectives  and  were 
taken  to  the  Marion  county  jail. 
Helped  in  Tlaies  Explosion. 

The  conviction  of  Olaf  A.  Tveitmoe 
and  Eugene  A.  Clancy  of  San  Francis- 
co and  J.  E.  Munsey  of  Salt  Lake  City, 
sustained  the  government's  charges 
that  they  aided  in  plotting  the  Los 
Angeles  explosion,  in  which  twenty- 
one  persons  were  killed,  and  assisted 
In  the  escape  of  James  B.  McNamara 
In  his  flight  from  the  scene  of  that 
crime. 

By  its  verdict  the  Jury  also  sus- 
tained the  charges  that  the  McNa- 
mara brother.^,  now  in  prison  in  Cali- 
fornia, were  aided  in  the  nation-wide 
dynamite  plots  by  almost  all  the  ex- 
ecutive officials  of  the  Iron  Workers' 
union,  and  that  they  knowingly  carried 
on  the  conspiracy  for  years  by  caus- 
ing explosives  to  be  transported  on 
trains. 

As  the  head  of  the  union  of  12.000 
members.  President  Ryan  ohce  sat  in 
the  councils  of  the  American  Federa- 
tion   of  ,;^bor. 

Tveitmuc  of  San  Francisco  was 
charged  with  not  only  supplying  two 
men  to  assist  in  blowing  up  the  Los 
Angeles  Times  Onilding,  but  also  with 
having  asked  for  more  explosions  on 
the  Pacific  coast.  He  Is  secretary  of 
the  California  Building  Trades  Coun- 
cil, an  editor  and  a  recognized  leader 
in  labor  circles  .on  the  coast. 
Hockin,    '-tlie   lag*." 

Also  at  the  head  of  *hose  found 
guilty  is  Herbert  S.  Hockin,  called  tho 
"lago  of  the  conspiracy"  because  ho 
was  charged  with  first  Initiating  Ortle 
E.  McManigal  as  a  hired  dynamiter 
and  then  with  betraying  all  the  dyna- 
miters to  promote  his  own  ambition.  It 
was  he  who,  once  secretary  of  tho  in- 
ternational union,  "whispered  Into  tlie 
ear  of  Detective  Burns  the  names  of 
the  Los  Angeles  Times  dynamiters." 

John  T.  Butler,  vice  president  of  the 
iron  workers,  also  was  convicted,  being 
branded  by  the  court  as  a  "perjurer" 
after  he  had  denied  that  McNamara 
was  drawing  $1,000  a  month  to  pay  for 
dynamitings. 

An  almost  tragic  scene  took  place  in 
the  courtroom  in  the  few  minutes  fol- 
lowing the  end  of  the  trial. 

Wives  Created  Scene. 

As  United  States  Marshal  Edward 
Schmidt  ordered  the  prisoners  one  by 
one  to  step  before  the  court,  the  wives 
of  a  score  of  the  men.  in  the  rear  of 
the  room,  leaned  pitifully  over  the 
railings,  calling  for  their  husbands. 

Mrs.  Frank  J.  Higglns  of  Boston 
leaned  far  over  the  railing  and  col- 
lapsed. She  had  been  crying  hysteri- 
cally. 

Another  disposition  was  shown  by 
Mrs.  John  H.  Barry  of  St.  Louis.  With 
a  smile  she  threw  her  arms  about  her 
husband,  begging  him  to  have  courage. 

"Be  of  good  cheer,  John."  she  said. 
"You  can't  expect  a  severe  punish- 
ment." 

As  soon  as  his  name  was  called, 
Frank  K.  Painter  of  Omaha  pulled  a 
stickpin  out  of  his  necktie  and  his 
purse  out  of  his  pocket  and  handed 
them  to  one  of  his  attorneys. 

James    Cooney,    one    of    the    Chicago 

firlsoners.  sat  with  outward  calm,  reari- 
ng   a    newspaper,    while    the    verdicts 
were   being   read,   and  threw   down   the 


paper   only    w^hen   his    name   was   called 
to    »tep    before    tlr^'  court. 

Maximum  Forty  Veara. 

Possible  punishments  vary  from  any 
minimum  to  a  malcimum  of  thirty-nine 
and  a  half  years,  in  the  discretion  of 
the  court.  * 

Each  prisoher,"'  as  found  guilty, 
stands  convicted  of  having  lu  one  in- 
stance Joined  "a  conspiracy  to  commit

Each  prisoner  also  is  found  guilty 
of  twenty-five  charges  of  illegal  trans-

Sen^cnOpiot    Fixed. 

While  thttS;uiniPated  possible  pun- 
ishments a:^  thirty-nine  and  a  half 
years,  the  court  Intimated  in  the  course 
of  the  trial  that  fte  would  impose  sen- 
tences in  accordance  with  the  degree 
of   guilt. 

All  the  overt  acts  were  charged  as 
being  related  to  tho  series  of  dyna- 
mite and  nitro-glycerin  explosions.  In- 
cluding those  ou  tho  Pacific  coast  as 
well  as  those  in-New  England,  which 
were  directed  against  "open  shop" 
structural  Iron  and  steel  contractors, 
against  whom  a  strike  was  called  by 
the  International  Iron  Workers'  union 
in    1905. 

After   reeceiving   their  sentences,   the 
prisoners  are  to  bo  taken  to  a  Federal 
prison,   probably  at  Leavenworth,   Kan. 
Jury  Out  Since  ThurMday. 

The  end  of  the  historic  trial.s  came 
at  10  a.  m.,  the  jury  having  been  out 
since  Thursday  at  5  p.   m. 

As  the  jurors  entered  Judge  Ander- 
son's courtroom  and  passed  before  the 
forty  men  on  trial  the  importance  of 
what  they  were  about  to  reveal  was 
Indicated  only  by  Intensely  pale  faces. 

"Gentlemen  of  the  jury,  have  you 
agreed  upon  verdicts?"  asked  Judge 
Anderson. 

"We  have,"  sai4  the  foreman,  rising 
from  liis  seat. 

His  voice  was  like  a  whisper,  but  It 
echoed  throughout  the  courtroom.  The 
sobbing  of  women  was  heard  from  that 
part  of  the  room  where  sat  the  wives 
of  the  defendants. 

A  bundle  of  papers  was  passed  from 
the  jury  box  to  Clerk  Noble  C.  Butler. 
On  those  papers  was  written  liberty 
or  imprisonment  for  many  more  men 
than  usually  are  tried  by  one  Jury. 
SuppreMsed  Sobbing. 

In  the  rear  of  the  courtroom  the  sup- 
pressed sobbing  again  sugge.sted  agita- 
tion. ;  > 

"Everybody  /"eniain  seated,"  com- 
manded the  United  States  marshal. 

Silence  again  w'a3  restored  save  for 
the  rustling  of  the  papers,  which  Clerk 
Butler  tremblingly  held  in  his  hands 
and  which  he  proceeded  to  read. 

The  first  name  was  Ryan.  Clerk 
Butler  pronounced  it  and  cleared  his 
throat 

"Guilty,"  he  read;  "we  find  the  de- 
fendant, Ryan,  guilty  as  charged  in  the 
indictment." 

All  who  could  see  him  looked  at 
Ryan,  a  gray-headed  man  57  years  of 
age,  and  appearing  older,  a  man  who 
had  traveled  for  the  union  so  much  that 
lie  said  he  hud  no  home,  and  save  for 
two  grown  sons  had  no  family.  "I  have 
a  furnished  room  in  Chicago,"  was  his 
oft-repeated  description  of  home. 

"Gentlemen  of  ftte  Jury,  is  that  your 
verdict r'  ? 

Tho  answer  ^"irtfe  from  each  juror 
"It  Is." 

Then  begai^  the  further  reading  of 
the  brief  message  which  pronounced, 
one  by  one,  the  fate  of  the  other  de- 
fendants. 

Not  CluirKed  With  Kxploaions. 

The  men  were  not  charged  actually 
with  causing  explosions.  The  only 
charges  under  ^'hich  they  could  be 
prosecuted  by  tlie  Federal  government 
were  conspiracy  and  Illegal  transporta- 
tion of  the  explosives.  But  the  court 
ruled  that  evidence  as  to  violence  was 
competent   as  showlxig  a   motive. 

"I  am  no^  ready  to  believe  that  or- 
ganized labor  yet  stands  for  the  things 
that  have  been  shown  here,"^  was  one 
of  Judge  Anderson's  statements  to  the 
jury.  "This,  is  not  a  trial  of  labor 
unions,  bui  t>f*iualon  officials  accused 
of  wrongdoing.** 

Fanullea  An  Separated. 

About  thii-ty  \vive3,  with  almost  as 
many  childrc;;,  aSB*  acTJarated  from 
their   husbands    by   the   verdicts. 

While  tl^  s«ene  w^as  being  enacted 
In  the  com*froDoi,  the  4-year-old  son 
of  William  C.  Bernhardt  of  Cincinnati, 
one  of  the  defendants,  was  playing  In 
the  lobby  "\\-ith  a  red-painted  toy 
engine  which  he  had  received  Christ- 
mas. He  had  become  the  pet  of  the 
Federal  buiidlns,  and  could  not  un- 
derstand when  told  his  fatlier  was 
•going  away." 

Almost  the  entire  staff  of  executive 
officials  of  the  iron  workers'  union 
was  convicted.  The  only  officials  not 
on  trial  were  J.  E.  McClory  of  Cleve- 
land, now  secretary,  and  Ed  Lewis  of 
San  Francisco,  a  member  of  the  execu- 
tive   board.

the   government,    said: 

"Nothing  flse  could  have  been  ex- 
pected. The  evidence  of  a  nation-wide 
conspiracy  which  began  In  local  slug- 
glngs  and  assaults  on  non-union  work- 
men, and  grew  because  local*  authori- 
ties failed  to  prosecute,  became  finally 
so  bold  that  dynamite  was  resorted  to. 

"The  dynamiters  grew^  Ijolder  in  vio- 
lating the  Federal  laws,  in  carrying 
tliese  deadly  explosives  on  passenger 
trains,  because  they  never  dreamed  of 
prosecution. 

"That  was!  "whatj^  emboldened  McNa- 
mara, the  secretary  of  the  union,  to 
get  an  approtpriatjon  of  $1,000  a  month 
so  that  tlve  tvork  Qf  destruction  might 
be  carried  on  systematically.  It  was 
what  made  htm  D^ld  enough  to  send 
his  brother,  Jame^  B.  McNamara,  to 
blow  up  not  ohlf  the  Los  Angeles 
Times  building,  b^  also  plot  to  blow 
up   the  whole  ctt-j^  ©f  Los   Angeles. 

<^BeBefl4t  to   Labor." 

"This  prosecution  will  be  a  benefit 
to  organized  labor.  It  will  purge  it 
of  the  rough  *=tactlc3.  The  whole 
United  States  owes  a  debt  of  grati- 
tude to  that  jury." 

The  foreman  of  the  Jury  was  Frank 
Dare  of  New  Lisbon,  Ind.,  a  retired 
farmer. 

Immense  crowds  assembled  in  the 
streets  about  the  Federal  building 
when  the  verdicts  were  being  returned, 
and  when  the  prisoners  were  brought 
out,  each  handcuffed  betwen  two 
deputy  marshals. "the  street  became  so 
clogged  that  police  had  to  force  the 
people  back. 

Between    **lAh%rtr    and    Juatiee.*' 

As  they  emerged,  handcuffed,  on  th« 
top  steps  of  the  building,  with  gray- 
haired  Frank  Ryan,  his  face  seamed, 
wan  and  gray,  In  their  lead,  the  group 
of  prisoners  stoo<r  between  two  colos- 
sal marble  slatuijps  representing  Lib- 
erty and  Justice.  /The  scene  was  bathed 
In  a  golden  winter  sunlight.  The 
crowds  looked  up,  silent. 

Silence,  too,  attended  the  prisoners 
as.  in  a  file  almost  half  a  block  long, 
they  marched,  linked  to  their  keeper.", 
toward  the  Marloji  county  Jail.  Peo- 
ple looked  from  upper  parts  of  build- 
ings, from  the  windows  of  street  cars 
and  from  the  sidewalks,  but  there  was 
no  demonstration.  For  five  blocks  the 
prisoners  thus  marched  through  the 
streets  to  reach  the  jail  In  the  south- 
eastern section   of  the  city. 

The  only  requ«»t  by  counsel  for  the 
defense,  after  the  verdicts  were  read, 
'vas  by  W.  N.  Harding,  who  asked  that 
the  jury  be  polled.  The  Judge  replied 
that  it  would  tatce  too  much  time  to 
poll  each  jur*r  on  «*ach  count  against 
each    defendant,    and    that   matter    was 

Make    Motlona    Monday. 

Any  motions  by  the  defense  will  be 
nade  Mondar  morning,  when  sen- 
'  on  res  ar^  tof  be  Imposed.  William  A. 
Gray  of  Philadelphia,  counsel  for  Mi- 
chael Cunnane,  said  no  attempt  to  get 
ball  would  bfa  made  today,  as  he  be- 
lieved It  wo^d  be  useless.  He  said, 
n  appeal  on  a  writ  of 
madf>  Monday,  and  that 
the  hearing  of  tlie  ap- 
renuested. 

in  the  report  of  the  Jury  as  handed 
in  by  Foremto  Dnre  the  names  of 
Charles  WocKraeiater  and  Frank  J. 
Murphy  of  D?lrolt  and  Hiram  R.  Kl*ne 
of  Muncio  Ind..  were  written  in  the 
margin  of  the  sheet  of  papers,  and  the

If  ever  any  of  you  Jurora  i«  drawn 
cor  jury  again  In  this  court,  all  you 
Win  have  to  do  will  be  to  tell  me  that 
you  served  In  this  trial  and  you  will 
be  excused,"  said  Judge  Anderson  In 
discharging  the  Jurors.  "I  want  to  ex- 
press publicly  the  thanks  due  you  from 
the  conimunlty  for  your  faithfulness  to 
Quty.  lou  have  been  cut  off  here  for 
three  months  from  your  family  and 
your  friends,  and  not  one  word  of  com- 
plaint   has    been    heard    from    any    of 

When  the  Jury  had  left  the  room, 
Judge  Anderson  ordered  court  ad- 
journed until  10  o'clock  Monday  morn- 
ing. 

Daniel  Bui'kley  of  Davenport,  Iowa, 
did  not  hesitate  when  the  Judge  an- 
nounced his  discharge.  He  passed  In 
front  of  the  others,  and  his  face 
show-ed  he  did  not  know  whether  to 
laugh  or  cr.v.  Hermau  Seiffert  of  Mil- 
waukee  waited  until  his  name  was 
called  by  Marshal  Schmidt. 

...  WIvea  Con  Vlitlt  Them.

led  away,  Marslial  Schmidt  brought 
smiles  to  the  faces  of  those  who  re- 
mained by  announcing  that  the  wives 
of  the  prisoners  would  be  permitted  to 
i'i'"^  .u  ^"^  tomorrow  in  jail.  He  asked 
that  the  word  be  passed  to  the  prison- 
ers who  had  already  been  led  away 

•It  was  a  great  surprtse  to  us,"  said 
Attorney  Harding  for  the  defense.  "We 
struggled  through  this  long  trial  in 
the  presumption  that  all  these  men 
were  Innocent.  There  were  more  than 
a  dozen  of  us  attorneys^.  We  talked 
to  each  defendant  long  and  earnestly 
and  we  believed  from  what  they  told 
us  they  were  Innocent.  Ryan  and  the 
others  declared  again  and  again  they 
were  in  absolute  ignorance  of  Mc- 
Namara s  damnable  dynamitings 

.._.  «'««ia«  For  Proaecntora. 
The  government  was  well  prepared 
to  carry  on  Its  case.  Perhaps  there 
never  has  been  a  trial  of  such  magni- 
tude In  which  the  prosecution  was  so 
thoroughly  prepared. 

"Our  hope  now  is'  to  obtain  as  light 
sentences  as  possible.  We  believe 
Monday  some  of  the  men  will  be 
given  only  short  terms,  as  the  court 
intimated  some  weeks   ago   It   had   not 

li"t  f   '^*''"  ^^**  *^'*®>'  w^re  all  equally 

"What  motions  as  to  appeals  we  In- 
tend to  make  will  be  offered  Monday, 
me  court  ia  bound  to  recognize  our 
appeals  to  the  United  States  circuit 
co«rt  of  appeals,  and  to  give  bonds 
pending  the  appeals,  but  the  bonds  may 
be  so  heavy  the  prisoners  cannot  fur- 
nish them.  In  that  case  they,  of  course 
will  have  to  remain  In  jail." 

Two    Not    Iron    AVorkera. 

Kline,  formerly  an  organizer  for  the 
carpenters'  union  in  Detroit,  and 
Tveitmoe,  secretary  of  the  California 
Building  Trades  council,  are  the  only 
nien  convicted  who  were  not  members 
of  the  iron  workers'   union. 

Referring  to  Kline,  who  was  then 
on  the  stand  in  his  own  behalf.  Judge 
Anderson  said:  "His  connection  with 
the  conspiracy  was  as  white  as  the 
driven  snow,  compared  with  that  of 
some   of   the   others." 

Tveitmoe,     Clancy    and    Munsey    did 
not    testify    in    their    own    behalf. 
Tveitmoe    Uneoueemed. 

Tveitmoe  often  was  referred  to  by 
the  district  attorney  as  "the  paymaster 
of  the  Pacific  coast."  and  was  directly 
charged  with  furnishing  protection  to 
David  Caplan  and  M.  A.  Schmidt,  In- 
dicted on  murder  charges  as  accom- 
plices of  James  B.  McNamara,  and 
with  having  gotten  Mrs.  Caplan  out  of 
California  so  she  could  not  be  used 
In  prosecutions  there. 

_  Tveitmoe  twirled  his  hat  on  his  cane 
as  he  waited  his  turn  to  be  led  away 
to  jail.  He  smiled  as  he  marched  up  to 
Marshal  Schmidt  and  was  placed  !n 
charge  of  a  city  detective. 

Ryan  looked  neither  to  the  right  nor 
to  the  left  as  he  came  forward. 

"On  the  job."  responded  Edward 
Smythe  of  Peoria,  111.,  when  he  was 
asked  to  step  forward,  and  his  florid 
round  face  was  wreathed  in  smiles. 

J.  E.  Munsey,  alias  "Jack"  Bright, 
of  Salt  Lake  City  walked  out  of  the 
courtroom  with  a  cigarette  In  hfs 
mouth.

Justice  Vanderberg  and  found  not

she  alone  was  responsible  for  the  of- 
fense. 


ANOTHER  ADMITS  GUILT. 

Humphrey  Changes  Plea  in  Columbia 
River  Case. 

Portland,  Or.,  Dec.  28. — H.  H.  Humph- 
rey, one  of  the  accused  Columbia

G.  C.  Hodges  never  have  been  captured. 
De  Larm  was  reported  to  have  died 
in  California. 

A.  J.  Biehl,  charged  by  the  govern- 
ment with  being  closely  associated 
with  De  Larm  In  the  operations  which

leged worthless  bonds,  is  the  only  man 
left  on  trial  before  the  Federal  tribunal. 
In  this  prosecution  about  200  witnesses 
have  been  summoned  from  all  parts  of 
the   Northwest. 


DESCENDANT  OF 

VON  BULOW  KILLED. 

Reno,  Nev..  Dec.  28. — With  both 
bands  cut  off  and  his  skull  fractured. 
Max  von  Bulow,  said  to  be  a  descend- 
ant of  count  ^on  Bulow,  the  famous 
German  general,  was  picked  op  on  the 
railroad  track  near  the  state  line  and 
died  two  hours  later  in  the  railroad 
hospital   at   Starks. 

Von  Bulow  was  a  globe  trotter  and 
soldier  of  fortune.  Several  years  ago 
he  married  Miss  Christine  Plumer,  a 
wealthy  woman  of  Pueblo.  Colo.,  and 
they  traveled  through  Europe  In  regal 
style.     They   were   later  divorced. 

Von  Bulow  was  highly  educated  and 
spoke  several  languages.  It  is  believed 
he  was  "beating  his  way"  west  on  a 
passenger  train  last  night  and  fell  be- 
neath the  wheels.

Aged    North    Dakota    Woman    Does 
This,  Escaping  Burning  Home. 

Grand  Forks,  N.  D.,  Dec.  2S. — (.Spe- 
cial to  The  Herald.) — Eighty-four 
year.s  old  and  bed  ridden,  Mrs.  Delia 
Ekerman  yesterday  crept  from  her 
couch  through  a  window  and  dropped 
Into  the  snow,  crawling  on  her  Iiand.s 
and  knees  In  her  nightdress  over  100 
feet  through  drifts  to  a  barn,  when 
h»!r  home  was  d«'Stroyed  by  fire.  Other 
members  of  the  family  were  away 
when  fire  attacked  the  Ekerman  home

did  not  know  there  was  anything 
wrong  till  the  upper  part  of  the  build-

after  she  reached  the  barn  that  neigh- 
bors were  attracted  by  the  flames  and 
came   to   her  relief.      She   may   recover.

ringing    note    of    optimism. 

Tli'^y  say  the  Nortiiweat  is  prosper- 
ous and  Oulutli  is  getting  a  large 
share  of  the  resulting  bu.siness.  Du- 
luth tradt.'  territory  is  expanding  aTid 
the  traveling  men  are  looking  forward 
to  the  greatest  year  in  history. 

C.  M.  Sullivan,  who  travels  for  the 
Gowan-Peyton-Congdon  company  in 
the  Copper  country,  is  authority  for 
the  statement  that .  business  in  gen- 
eral in  that  section  of  the  Northwest 
is  very  much  better  than  It  was  a 
year  ago,  and  that  consequently  the 
outlook  for  business  for  the  Duluth 
houses  Is  very  much  better  than  it 
was   at    this    time   a   year    ago. 

J.  H.  Johnson,  who  represents  the 
same  house  in  the  district  of  the  state 
around  Fergus  Falls,  stated  that  the 
residejits  of  that  part  of  Minnesota 
have  more  money  than  was  the  case  a 
year  ago,  that  the  crops  of  last  fall 
Were  better  than  those  of  the  previ- 
ous fall,  and  that  the  outlook  for  a 
very  good  business  was  extremely 
rosy. 

O.  Mclnnes,  another  Gowan-Peyton- 
Congdon  representative,  wiio  travels 
In  the  section  of  Wadena  and  Detroit, 
Minn.,  statofl  that  tlie  general  condi- 
tion of  that  section  of  the  state  Is 
very  good,  this  being  accounted  for 
by  good  crop.«?  and  the  belief  of  the 
people  that  this  coming  year  Is  going 
to  be  one  of  the  best  for  many  years. 
Mr.  Mclnneg  stated  the  prospects  for 
Increa.seil  business  are  very  bright. 
nakotaw    Are    ProftperuuN. 

H.  K.  Sansted,  who  travels  in  the 
vicinity  of  Jamestown,  N.  D.,  expressed 
the  opinion  that  the  business  of  the 
coming  year  will  greatly  exceed  that 
transacted  in  the  year  tliat  Is  coming 
to  an  end.  and  that  In  general  the 
buslne.ss  all  through  the  Dakotas  will 
show    an    Improvement. 

M.  O.  Rowe,  who  travels  for  the 
Kelley-How-Thomson  company  in  the 
vicinity  of  Iron  River.  Mioh.,  stated 
tliat  !n  general  business  of  every  na- 
ture was  in  a  more  prosperous  condi- 
tion than  was  the  case  of  a  year  ago. 
and  that  the  foundation  has  been  laid 
for  a  very  good  Increase  for  the  com- 
ing year. 

Georgia  Taylor,  Montana  representa- 
tive for  the  company,  making  liis  head- 
c]uarter.>=!  at  Bozeman,  reports  business 
conditions  In  the  West  /lourishing. 
Crops  in  Montana  were  a  decided  Im- 
pro%'ement  over  those  of  the  year  pre- 
vious, he  stated,  and  in  addition  Mr. 
Taylor  stated  that  general  business 
was  on  a  better  foundation  than  it 
had    been    for   some    time    past. 

Fred  Clodgett,  traveling  for  the  Kel- 
ley-How-Thomson company  In  the 
Crookston  territory,  was  another  of 
the  representatives  of  the  company 
to  predict  increased  bu.slnesn  for  the 
next  year.  R.  K.  Willis  of  Vienna.  S. 
D.,  and  P.  J.  Kelson  of  Sauk  Center, 
two  boosters  for  Duluth  and  Duluth- 
made  goods,  predicted  one  of  the  best 
years  in  the  history  of  their  experi-

JURY  CONVICTS  38 
OF  PLOTS  TO  BLOW 
UP  WON-UMION  WORK 

(Continued  from    page   1.) 


court  adjourned  until  10  a.  ni., 
Monday,  when  sentence  will  be 
imposed  by  Judge  Anderson. 

Seiflert  and  Buckley,  the  only  two 
men  out  of  the  forty  labor  union  of- 
ficials to  be  adjudged  not  guilty,  Im- 
mediately were  discharged  from  cus- 
tody. 

After  Judge  Anderson  had  cleared 
the  court  room  of  all  spectators  and 
the  families  of  the  defendants,  the 
thirty-eii<ht  prisoners  were  taken  in 
custody  by  Deputy  United  States  mar- 
shals and  special  detectives  and  were 
taken  to  tlie  Marion  county  jail. 
Helped  In  TiuieM  KxplosSon. 

The  conviction  of  Olaf  A.  Tveitmoe 
and  Eugene  A.  Clancy  of  .San  Francis- 
co and  J.  K.  Munsey  of  Salt  Lake  City, 
sustained  the  government's  charges 
that  they  aided  in  plotting  the  Los 
Angeles  explosion,  in  whicli  tAventy- 
one  persons  were  killed,  and  assisted 
In  the  escape  of  James  B.  McNam.aia 
in  his  flight  from  the  scene  of  that 
crime. 

By  its  verdict  the  Jury  also  sus- 
tained the  charges  that  the  McXa- 
mara  brothers,  now  in  prison  in  Cali- 
fornia, were  aided  in  the  nation-wide 
dynamite  plots  by  almost  all  the  ex- 
ecutive officials  of  the  Iron  Workers' 
union,  and  that  they  knowingly  carried 
on  the  conspiracy  for  years  by  caus- 
ing explosives  to  be  transported  on 
trains. 

As  the  head  of  the  union  of  12.000 
members.  President  Ryan  once  sat  in 
the  councils  of  the  American  Federa- 
tion   of  ^^bor. 

Tveitmoc  of  San  Francisco  was 
charged  with  not  only  supplying  two 
men  to  assist  in  blowing  up  the  Los 
Angeles  Times  TTnilding,  but  also  with 
having  asked  for  more  explosions  on 
the  Pacific  coast.  He  is  secretary  of 
the  California  Building  Trades  Coun- 
cil, an  editor  and  a  recognized  leader 
in  labor  circles  on  the  coast. 
Hockln.   ''the   lagro." 

AI.'io  at  the  head  of  <hose  found 
guilty  is  Herbert  S.  Hockin,  called  tlio 
■lago  of  the  conspiracy"  because  he 
was  chareed  with  first  initiating  Ortie 
E.  McManigal  as  a  hired  dynamiter 
and  then  with  betraying  all  the  dyna- 
miters to  promote  his  own  ambition.  It 
was  he  who,  once  secretary  of  the  in- 
ternational union,  "whispered  Into  the 
ear  of  Detective  Burns  the  names  of 
the  Los   Ang-^les  Times  dynamiters." 

John  T.  Butler,  vice  president  of  the 
iron  workers,  also  was  convicted,  being 
brande.l  by  the  court  as  a  'perjurer' 
after  he  had  denied  that  McNamara 
was  drawing  ?1,000  a  month  to  pay  for 
dynamltings. 

An  almost  tragic  scene  took  place  'n 
the  courtroom  in  the  few  minutes  fol- 
lowing tht;  end  of  the  trial. 

Wives  C'reated  Scene. 

As  ITnited  States  Marshal  Edward 
Schmidt  ordered  the  prisoners  one  by 
one  to  step  before  the  court,  the  •wives 
of  a  score  of  the  men.  In  the  rear  of 
the  room,  leaned  pitifully  over  the 
railings,  calling  for  their  husbands. 

Mrs.  Frank  J.  Iliggins  of  Boston 
leaned  far  over  the  railing  and  col- 
lapsed. She  had  been  crying  hysteri- 
cally. 

Another  disposition  was  shown  by 
Mrs.  John  H.  Barry  of  St.  Louis.  With 
a  smile  she  tlirew  her  arms  about  her 
husband,  begging  him  to  have  courage. 

"Be  of  good  cheer,  .Tohn,"  she  said. 
"You  can't  expect  a  severe  punish- 
ment." 

As  soon  as  lils  name  was  called. 
Frank  K.  Painter  of  Omaha  pulled  a 
stickpin  out  of  his  necktie  and  his 
purse  out  of  his  pocket  and  handed 
them  to  one  of  his  attorneys. 

James    Coonoy,    one    of    the    Chicago 

firlsoners,  sat  with  outward  culm,  read-

SenteneeiiJBjot    Kl»ed, 

While  the  ^LuuUillateil  possible  pun- 
ishments uH?  thirty -nine  and  a  lialf 
years,  the  court  intimated  in  the  course 
of  the  trial  that  be  would  impose  sen- 
tences in  accordance  with  the  degree 
of   Kuilt. 

All  the  overt  acts  Were  charged  as 
being  related  to  tlie  series  of  dyna- 
mite and  nitro-giycerin  explosions,  in- 
cluding tliout;  on  tiie  Pacific  coast  as 
well  as  tliuse  in  New  Kngland,  which 
were  dirf'cted  againtit  "open  shop"

After   reecelvlng   their   s-^ntences.    the 
prisoners  arw   to   be  taken   to  a   Federal 
prison,    probably   at   Leavenworth,    Kan. 
Jury  Out   Siuce  TliurMday. 

The  end  of  the  historic  trials  came 
at  10  a.  m.,  the  jury  having  been  out 
sime   Thursday   at    5   p.    m. 

As  the  jurors  entered  Judge  Ander- 
son's courtroom  and  passed  t>efore  the 
forty  men  on  trial  the  importance  of 
what  they  were  about  to  reveal  was 
Indicated  only   by  intensely  pale  faces. 

"Gentlemen  of  the  jury,  liave  you 
agreed  upon  verdicts'?"  asked  Judge 
Anderson. 

"We  have,"  said  the  foreman,  rising 
frf>m  ills  seat. 

Ills  voice  was  like  a  whisper,  but  It 
echoed  throughout  the  courtroom.  The 
sobbing  of  women  was  heard  from  tliat 
part  of  the  room  where  sat  the  wives 
of  the  defendants. 

A  bundle  of  papers  was  passed  from 
the  jury  box  to  Clerk  Noble  C.  Butler. 
On  those  papei's  was  written  liberty 
or  imprisonment  for  many  more  men 
than  usually  are  tried  by  one  jury. 
SuppreMiied  SobblnK- 

In  the  rear  of  the  courtroom  the  sup- 
pressed sobbing  again  suggested  agita- 
tion. 

"Everybody  remain  seated,''  com- 
manded  the  Cnited  .States  marshal. 

Silence  again  was  restored  save  for 
the  rustling  of  the  papers,  which  Clerk 
Butler  tremblingly  held  in  his  hands 
and  which   he  proceeded   to  read. 

The  first  name  was  Ryan.  Clerk 
Butler  pronounced  it  and  cleared  his 
throat 

"Guilty,"  he  read;  "we  find  the  de- 
fendant. Ryan,  guiBty  as  charged  in  the 
indictment." 

All  who  could  see  him  looked  at 
Ryan,  a  gray-headed  man  57  years  of 
age,   and   appearing   older,    a  man    who 


had  traveled  far  tlio  union  so  much  that 
lie  said  he  had  no  liome,  and  save  for 
two  grown  sons  had  no  family.  "I  have 
a  furnished  room  in  Chicago,"  was  his 
oft-repeated  description  of  liome. 

"Gentlemen  of  ^ie  jury,  is  that  your 
verdict'.'" 

The  answer  cam^  from  each  juror 
"It   13." 

Then  begai^  the  further  reading  of 
the  brief  message  which  pronounced, 
one  by  one,  the  fate  of  the  other  de- 
fendants. 

Sot  Cliarisred  With  ExpIoNions. 
The  men  were  not  charged  actually 
with  causing  explosions.  The  only 
charges  under  which  they  could  be 
prosecuted  by  the  Federal  government 
were  conspiracy  and  Illegal  transporta- 
tion of  the  explosives.  But  the  court 
ruled  that  evidence  as  to  violence  was 
competent   as   showing  a   motive. 

"I  am  nojf  ready  to  believe  that  or- 
ganized la.bor  yet  stands  for  the  things 
that  have  been  shown  here,"  was  one 
of  Judge  Anderson's  statements  to  the 
jury.  "This  is  not  a  trial  of  labor 
unions,  buf  of ,  union  officials  accused 
of  wrongdoing.'^ 

ir'amtlles  Are  Separated. 
About    thirty    wives,    with    almost    as 
many     cnlldren/.t  blKT    separated     from 
their   husbands   by   the   verdicts. 

While  tho  soene  was  being  enactfd 
In  the  covJi'trobm,  the  4-year-old  son 
of  William  C.  Bernhardt  of  Cincinnati, 
one  of  the  defendants,  was  playing  In 
the  lobby  with  a  red-painted  toy 
engine  which  he  had  received  Christ- 
mas. He  had  become  the  pet  of  the 
Federal  building,  and  could  not  un- 
derstand when  told  his  father  was 
•going  away." 

Almost  the  entire  staff  of  executive 
officials  of  the  Iron  workers*  tinion 
was  convicted.  The  only  officials  not 
on  trial  were  J.  K.  McClory  of  Cleve- 
land, now  secretary,  and  Ed  Lewis  of 
.San  Franci.sco,  a  member  of  the  execu- 
tive   board. 

Statement    by    Miller. 
Charles   W.   Miller,   the  United   States 
district    attorney,    who    prosecuted    for 
tile    government,    said: 

"Nothing  else  could  have  been  ex- 
pected. The  e\idenc!:'  of  a  nation-wide 
conspiracy  which  began  in  local  sliig- 
ginss  and  assaults  on  non-union  work- 
men, and  grew  because  local-  authori- 
ties failed  to  prosecute,  became  finally 
so  bold  that  dynamite  was  resorted  to. 

"The  dynamiters  grew  bolder  in  vio- 
lating the  Federal  laws.  In  carrying 
tiiese  deadly  explosives  on  passenger 
trains,  because  they  never  dieamed  of 
prosecution. 

"That  was  what  emboldened  McNa- 
mara, the  secretary  of  the  union,  to 
get  an  appropriation  of  $1,000  a  month 
so  that  the  tvorU  of  destruction  might 
be  carried  on  systematically.  It  was 
what  made  him  bold  enough  to  send 
his  brother,  James  B.  McNamara.  to 
blow  up  not  only  the  Los  Angeles 
Times  building,  but  also  plot  to  blow 
up   the   whole  city  of  Los   Angeles.

irnited    States    owes    a    debt    of 
tude   to   that  jur^'." 

Tile  foreman  of  the  Jury  was 
Dare    of    New    Lisbon,    Ind.,    a 
farmer. 

Immense  crowds  assembled 
streets  about  the  Federal  building 
when  the  verdicts  were  being  returned, 
and  when  the  prisoners  were  brought 
out,  each  handcuffed  betwen  two 
deputy  marshals,  the  street  became  so 
clogged  that  police  had  to  force  the 
people  back. 

Betvreen    <*T.ibcrtT    and    Jantlee.** 

As  they  emerged,  handcuffed,  on  the 
top  step.s  of  the  building,  with  gray- 
haired  Frank  Ryan,  his  face  seamed, 
wan  and  gray,  in  their  lead,  the  group 
of  prisoners  stood  between  two  colo.s- 
sal  marble  statutes  representing  Lib- 
ertv  and  .Justice. 'The  scene  was  bathed 
In  "a  golden  winter  sunlight.  The 
crowds  looked  up,  silent. 

Silence,  too,  attended  the  prisoners 
as.  In  a  file  almost  half  a  block  long, 
they  marched,  linked  to  their  keeper.", 
toward  the  Mario^i  county  jail.  Peo- 
ple looked  from  upper  parts  of  build- 
ings, from  the  -windows  of  street  cars 
and  from  the  sidewalks,  but  there  was 
no  demonstration.  For  five  blocks  the 
prisoners  thus  marched  through  the 
streets  to  reach  the  jail  in  the  south- 
eastern section   of  the  city. 

The  only  request  by  counsel  for  the 
defense,  after  the  verdicts  were  read, 
'vas  by  W.  N.  Harding,  who  asked  that 
the  jury  be  polled.  The  judge  replied 
that  it  would  take  too  much  time  to 
poll  each  JurOr  on  each  count  against 
each    defendant,    and    that    matter    was 

passed.

of  the  prisoners  would  be  permitted  to

to  each  defendant  long  and  earnestly

carpenters'  union  in  I)etroit,  and 
Tveitmoe,  secretary  of  the  California 
Building  Trades  council,  are  the  onlv 
men  convicted  who  were  not  members 
of  the   iron   workers'    union. 

Referring  to  Kline,  who  was  then 
on  the  stand  in  his  own  behalf.  Judge 
Anderson  said:  -His  connection  with 
the  conspiracy  was  as  white  as  the 
driven  snow,  compared  with  that  of 
some    of    the    others." 

Tveitmoe,     Clancy     and     Munsev     did 
not     testify    in     their    own     behalf. 
Tveitmoe    I'neourerned. 

Tveitmoe  often  was  referred  to  bv 
the  district  attorney  as  "the  paymaster 
of  the  Pacific  coast."  and  was  directly 
charged  with  furnishing  protection  to 
David  Caplan  and  M.  A.  Schmidt,  In- 
dicted on  murder  charges  as  accom- 
plices of  James  B.  McNamara,  and 
with  having  gotten  Mrs.  Caplan  out  of 
California  so  she  could  not  be  used 
in  prosecutions  tliere. 

Tveitmoe  twirled  his  hat  on  his  cane 
as  he  waited  his  turn  to  be  led  away 
to  .lail.  He  smiled  as  he  marched  up  to 
Marshal  vSchmldt  and  was  placed  In 
charge  of  a  city  detective. 

R.van  looked  neither  to  the  right  nor 
to  the  left  as  he  came  forward.

asked  to  step  forward,  and  bis  florid

DESCENDANT  OF  " 

VON  BULOW  KILLED. 

Reno.  Nev.,  Dec.  28. — With  both 
hands  cut  off  and  his  skull  fractured. 
Max  von  Bulow,  said  to  be  a  descend- 
ant of  count  ^on  Bulow,  the  famous 
German  general,  was  picked  up  on  the 
railroad  track  near  the  state  line  and 
died  two  hours  later  In  the  railroad 
hospital    at    Starks. 

Von  Bulow  was  a  globe  trotter  and 
soldier  of  fortune.  Several  years  ago 
he  married  Miss  Christine  Plumer,  a 
wealthy  woman  of  Pueblo,  Colo.,  and 
they  traveled  through  Europe  in  regal 
style.      They    were   later   divorced. 

Von  Bulow  was  highly  educated  and 
spoke  several  languages.  It  Is  believed 
he  was  "beating  his  way"  west  on  a 
passenger  train  last  night  and  fell  be- 
neath  the   wheels.

Other   Matters   Scheduled 
for  Council  Meeting  Mon-

The  fcoarii  of  fire  commissioners  yes- 
terday afternoon  awarded  the  contract 
tor  the  erection  o£  a  one-story  and 
basement  addition  to  the  horse  hospi- 
tal at  Xo.  3  firehall.  First  avt-nue  east 
and  Third  street,  to  John  Johnson. 
His  bid  was  $7,239.56.  There  were  two 
other  higrher  bidders.  The  addition 
will  be  ustd  as  a  blacksmith  and  paint 
shop. 

The  suggestion  has  been  made  that 
the  city  should  have  a  central  repair 
shop  for  the  automobiles  of  the  sev- 
eral departments,  which  are  steadily 
Incroasintj  in  number.  Among  the  de- 
pai  tmonts  having  macints  are  the  fire 
department,  police  department,  city  en- 
gineer, board  of  public  works  and  wa- 
ter and  light  department.  The  location 
at  No.  3  hall  is  central  and  the  opinion 
has  been  expressed  that  with  little  ad- 
ditional expense  it  could  be  fitted  to 
servo    as    a    central    garage. 

Several  of  the  aldermen  are  desir- 
ous of  fnvestigating  the  feasibility  of 
the  proposition  and  may  ask  that  the 
confirmation  of  the  contract  be  laid 
over  until  they  can  do  so.  The  con- 
tract will  likely  come  up  for  confir- 
mation of  the  council  Monday. 

Alderman  William  Bernard,  chair- 
man of  the  committee  on  streets,  al- 
leys and  sidewalks,  has  called  a  meet- 
ing of  the  committee  to  hear  any  state- 
ments which  may  be  presented  rela- 
tive to  the  proposed  subway  under  the 
D.  M.  iS:  X.  tracks  on  Highland  street, 
the  main  traveled  road  from  the  city 
to  Proctor.  The  meeting  will  be  lield 
at  the  citv  hall  Monday  afternoon  at 
3:30   o'clock.

tliey  must  again  communicate  with 
their   government    at    Constantinople. 

The  official  story  of  the  sixth  ses- 
sion of  tho  peace  conference,  issued 
Immediately  after  its  adjournment, 
says: 

•The  Turkish  delegates  having  pre- 
sented their  counter-proposals,  the 
delegates  of  the  Balkan  allies  made 
their  observations  and  the  meeting  was 
adjourned    until    Monday." 

Propo.salM  By  Turku. 

The  proposals  presented  by  the  Otto- 
man delegates  were: 

First — The  province  of  Adrlanople 
to  remain  under  the  direct  administra- 
tion of  Turkey. 

Second — Macedonia  is  to  be  convert- 
ed Into  a  principality,  with  Saloniki 
as  its  carital.  The  principality  to  be 
under  the  suzerainty  of  the  sultan  of 
Turkey,  but  governed  by  a  prince 
chosen  by  the  Balkan  allies  and  nom- 
inated by  the  sultan  of  Turkey.  This 
prince  to  be  a  Protestant  and  from  a 
neutral  state. 

Third — Albania  to  be  autonomous, 
under  the  sovereignty  of  the  sultan 
and  governed  by  a  prince  of  the  im- 
perial Ottoman  family,  who  is  to  be 
chosen  for  five  years,  with  the  possi- 
bility of  a  renewal  of  his  appointment. 

Fourth — All  the  islands  in  the 
Aegean  sea  to  remain  Turkish. 

Fifth — The  Cretan  question  not  to 
be  decided  by  the  conference,  as  it  is 
a  matter  between  Turkey  and  the  Eu- 
ropean powers.

wood  station. 

In  the  meantime  the  department  is 
doing  everything  pos.^ible  to  conserve 
the  reservoir  supply,  and  to  in- 
crease it  if  possible.  A  by-pass  main 
from  the  big  42-inch  main  on  Superior 
street  to  the  10-inch  main  on  London 
road  has  been  opened  and  the  pumps 
at  I.^kesidf  are  in  operation  part  of 
the  time  driving  water  through  the 
10-inch  main  to  the  reservoir  at  Fif- 
teenth avenue  east.  However  the  old 
valves  are  leaky  and  the  pumping  is 
not  attended  by  much  success,  as  the 
reservoir  is  down  about  four  feet. 
Some  difficulty  is  also  experienced  In 
keeping  the  pumped  water  from  in- 
truding on  tho  workmen  at  the 
point  of  tho  break.  A  back-flow 
from  the  Thirty-second  avenue  reser- 
voir tSirough  the  big  main  is  also 
making  some  trouble.

the  other  reservoirs  are  down  some- 
what and  care  in  the  consumption  of

-cer  Hatch  said  this  morning 
ta.ii  u  hen  he  announced  yesterday 
that  a  service  en  London  road  had 
been  broken  and  that  the  big  main 
was  intact,  he  believed  such  to  be  the 
r;iS'-.  He  said  the  leakage  of  water  had 
r<  achfd  through  to  London  road  and 
the  workmen  of  the  department  be- 
lieved that  to  be  the  scene  of  the 
break.  I^ater  they  discovered  the 
source  of  the  leakage  and  Informed 
him. 

"We  are  doing  everything  possible 
to  repair  the  break,"  said  Mr.  Hatch 
today.  "Our  men  were  at  work  all 
nii^ht,  and  will  continue  to  work  every 
minute  until  the  damage  Is  repaired. 
We  got  down  to  the  break  yesterday^, 
took  our  measurements  and  orderecf 
the  new  casting  made.  We  expect  It 
to  be  finished  this  afternoon  and  the 
repairs  made   by   tonight. 

"In  the  meantime  Proctor  and  other 
large  users  of  water  have  been  cut  off 
and  we  urge  the  people  to  use  care 
In  their  consumption  of  water.  I  be- 
lieve the  supply  in  the  reservoirs  is 
ample  if  care  is  used,  but  precautions 
are  necessary.  The  department  dis- 
covered the  point  of  the  break  as  soon 
as  possible  and  has  done  everything 
possible  to  repair  it.  It  will  bo  re- 
paired at  the  earliest  possible  mo- 
ment."

where  he  was  born  just  66  years  ago 
today,  tlie  reception  given  him  was 
one  of  tile  greatest  enthusia.sm,  dem-

Escorted  by  troops  of  cavalry,  militia

in  which  practically  the  whole  town 
participated,  the  governor  and  Mrs. 
Wilson  motored  through  the  streets  of 
Staunton 

With  IVfrs.  Wilson,  the  president- 
elect paused  for  a  minute  on  the  il- 
luminated portico  of  tiie  house  and 
greeted  Dr.  Fraaier.  The  band  struck 
up  "Dixie."  the  governor  turned  and 
waved  his  hat  to  the  crowd  and  a  spon- 
taneous shout  of  welcome  echoed  In 
the  winter  air. 

"It's  fine  to  be  back  again,"  ex- 
claimed the  'president-elect  as  he 
stepped  Indoors. 

Suffering  still  from  the  effects  of  his 
cold,   he  went  immediately  to  the  room 
in  which  he  was  born  to  rest  for  today.

and  red  lights  threw  a  festive  glare  at 
all  stations  along  the  route,  though 
the  train  glided  by  most  of  them  with- 
out stopping.  Mrs.  Wilson  stood  witft 
her  husband  on  the  rear  platform  of 
the  train,  and  enjoyed  the  demonstra-

the  university,  just  as  such  a  corps  Is 
engaged  for  agricultural   extension. 

"Among  the  many  forms  which  this 
extension  movement  may  profitably 
take  are:  Evening  classes  in  large  ur- 
ban centers  and  towns;  technical 
classes  for  artisans,  shopmen  and  pro- 
fessional workers;  courses  of  popular 
lectures;  single  addresses;  organized 
series  of  exercises  such  as  university 
weeks  and  winter  short  courses;  cor- 
respondence Instruction,  supplemented 
by  periodic  visits  of  traveling  super- 
visors; debating  societies;  so-called  ly- 
ceum  courses  of  lectures,  concerts  and 
entertainments;  organized  circuits  of 
local  dramatic  clubs  under  the  direc- 
tion of  traveling  professional  coaches 
and  similar  circuits  for  choral  soci- 
eties; co-operation  wth  local  civic  as- 
sociations in  the  acti\|ties  which  are 
commonly  identified  with  the  'social 
center"  movement;  a  lantern-slide  and 
moving  picture  film  service  for  schools 
and  other  centers;  local  campaigns  for 
medical  supervision  of  schools,  public 
health,  personal  hygiene,  and  many 
other  plans  for  disseminating  Infor- 
mation,   suggestions   and    Ideals. 

"The  university  should  seek  the  co- 
operation of  all  the  agencies  In  the 
state  that  are  engaged  In  educa- 
tional work,  and  with  them  develop  a 
plan  by  whicli  duplication  and  fric- 
tion  may   be    wholly   eliminated."

Elsbth  Vlrslnlan  PreMident. 

Virginia's  welcome   began   last   nlgTit 


been  taken  by  the  interstate  commerce 
commission. 

On  Dec.  1,  1911,  voluntary  reductions 
in  the  ore  rates  from  80  to  60  cents 
on  the  Mesaba  and  from  $1  to  60  cents 
on  the  Vermilion  range  were  made  by 
the    railroads. 

W.  A.  McGonagle,  president  of  the 
Duluth,  Missabe  &  Northern  railroad, 
and  F.  E.  House,  president  of  the  Du- 
luth &  Iron  Range  railroad,  could  not 
be  reached  this  morning  for  state- 
ments. 

As  the  two  Iron  range  railroads  lie 
wholly  within  Minnesota,  the  question 
of  jurisdiction  of  the  interstate  com- 
merce commission  is  one  that  wHi  be 
raised,  at  least  by  laymen.  However, 
the  United  States  .«-upreme  court  has 
held  that  railroads  lying  wholly  with- 
in a  state  are  under  the  jurisdiction  of 
the  Interstate  commerce  commission 
on  traffic  consigned  within  the  state 
but  destined  foi;  shipment  out  of  the 
state.  One  such  decision  was  made 
last  year  in  the  case  of  the  Railroad 
Commission  of  Ohio  Against  B.  A. 
Worthlngton,  receiver  of  a  railroad 
company.  It  was  held  by  the  court 
that  coal  destined  to  a  point  within  the 
state  of  Ohio  but  Intended  for  later 
shipment  by  water  to  other  points  was 
interstate  traffic.  The  rates,  as  is  the 
case  111  the  rates  on  ore,  covered  load- 
ing into  vessels  as  well  as  transporta- 
tion to  the  docks. 

The  tariffs  of  the  Duluth,  Missabe  & 
Northern  and  the  Duluth  &  Iron  Range 
railroads  are  on  file  with  the  Inter- 
state commerce  commission. 

At  the  time  of  the  Stanley  Investi- 
gation into  the  methods  of  the  United 
States  Steel  corporation,  some  atten- 
tion was  paid  to  the  rates  and  prac- 
tices in  effect  on  the  subsidiary  ore- 
carrying  roads,  but  the  Inquiry  was 
not  as  searching  as  the  forthcoming 
inquiry  of  the  interstate  commerce 
commis.sion  is  likely  to  be. 

Altliough  the  two  Steel  corporation 
roads  are  devoted  principally  to  the 
transportation  of  ore  mined  by  the 
Oliver  Iron  Mining  company,  they  are 
common  carriers  subject  to  the  same 
regulation   as  other  railroads. 

About  -twti- years  ago,  Leo  E.  Lum 
Qf.Dulvi.yi^_filed  a  complaint  with  the 
commission  attacking  the  rates  as  un- 
reasona.bLy  high  and  asking  a  reduc- 
tion from  SO  cents  to  40  cents  a  ton. 
Commls&ioner  Meyer  held  a  hearing, 
took  tostimony,  but  no  action  on  the 
matter  was  ever  taken.  Mr.  Lum  asked 
Oie  Minnesota  state  railroad  commis- 
sion to  intercede  in  his  behalf,  but 
after  a  hearing  the  commission  de- 
cided to  take  no  part.  Since  then,  the 
action  has  been  dormant  until  re- 
opened by  the  interstate  commerce 
commission  today.  Mr.  Lum  Is  said  to 
own  approximately  4,500,000  tons  of 
ore  of  low  grade  and  he  brought  the 
action  on  the  theory  that  If  freight 
rates  were  reduced  he  would  be  able 
to    mine    and    market    the    ores. 

"Every  ton  of  ore  shipped  from  the 
Minnesota  fields  is  destined  to  a  point 
outside  of  the  state,  and  hence  is  an 
interstate  shiiiment,"  said  Charles  Elm- 
qviist,  member  of  the  state  board  of 
railway  commissioners.  (Consequently, 
any  reduction  in  freight  rates  would 
have  to  be  made  by  the  interstate  com- 
mission  if   at   all." 


court  Attorney  M.  E.  Ryan,  at  the  re- 
quest of  the  jurors,  expressed  to  the 
court  In  behalf  of  the  Jurors  their 
appreciation  of  his  fair  and  courteous 
treatment  of  the  jury.  Judge  W.  S. 
McClenahan  of  Bralnerd  heard  the  last 
jury  case  of  Myers  vs.  Quinn.

New   Company  Will   Erect 

$150,000  Factory  for 

Their  Manufacture. 


The  Carbic  Corporation,  the  only  one 
of  its  kind  in  America,  has  been  in- 
corporated by  the  officers  of  the  Amer- 
can  Carbolite  company  for  the  manu- 
facture of  carbide  briquettes,  an  in- 
vention  of    the   local   concern. 

C.  A.  Duncan,  president  of  the  Ameri- 
can Carbolite  company,  and  David  C. 
Duncan,  treasurer,  are  at  the  head  of 
the  new  corporation.  It  Is  proposed 
to  conduct  an  International  advertis- 
ing and  sales  campaign  in  behalf  of 
this  new  article,  which  promises  'to 
revolutionize  the  carbide  market. 

Plans  are  now  being  made  for  t!ie 
construction  of  a  large  factory  in  the 
rtar  of  the  American  Carbolite  plant 
on  Central  avenue,  which  will  cost  in 
the  neighborlu'od  of  flCO.ooO  and  in 
Avhich  the  briquettes  will  be  manufac- 
tiired.  The  building  will  be  of  con- 
crete, with  tile  Hours  and  walls,  thus 
n  aking  it  completely  fireproof. 

The  carbide  briquette  is  similar  in 
appearance  to  the  Stott  briquette.  Much 
of  the  waste  in  the  manufacture  of 
carbide  will  be  used  in  manufacturing 
the.  briquette,  while  some  patent  ma- 
terials will  complete  the  binder  and 
make  the  substance  even  stronger 
chemically  than  the  present  forms  of 
carbide. 

It  is  the  uses  of  the  briquette  that 
promise  to  revolutionize  the  carbide 
market.  Under  the  now  process  the 
substance  will  be  much  .safer  to  handle. 
There  will  be  no  chance  of  an  explosion, 
and  a  much  simpler  form  of  generator 
can  be  used.  The  briquette  will  be 
much  easier  to  handle  and  should  find 
a  ready  market  throughout  this 
country. 

The  only  other  briquette  factory  in 
the  world  is  in  England,  but  the  pro- 
cess of  manufacture  is  different,  and 
the  local  invention  promises  to  excel 
tiie  Euorpean  article. 

It  is  planned  to  construct  the  factory 
this  winter  and  to  start  the  manufac- 
ture of  the  briqviettos  next  spring  or 
early  in  the  summer.  From  then  on  a 
national  advertising  and  sales  cam- 
paign will  be  conducted  by  the  local 
concern,  which  promises  to  add  much 
to  the  advertising  of  Duluth  through- 
out   the   country.

SAYS  INDEMNJfY 

CLAUSE  IS  UNFAIR 

Italians   Want   Change   in 

Proposed  Workingmen's 

Compensation  Act. 

Dilluth's  Italian  colony  is  opposed  to 
that  clause  of  the  proposed  working- 
men's  compensation  act  which  differ- 
entiates between  American  and  for- 
eign beneficiaries  of  Injured  working- 
men  who  T»-ill  come  under  the  pro- 
visions of  tlie  law. 

At  a  meeting  of  representative  Ital- 
ians of  the  city  at  St.  Peter's  Italian 
Catholic  church  last  evening  it  was 
the  sense  of  the  gathering  that  con- 
certed action  should  be  taken  among 
the  Italians  of  Duluth  to  bring  pres- 
sure to  bear  upon  the  legislature  to 
strike  out  the  25  per  cent  indemnity 
clause  relating  to  foreign  beneficiaries. 

The  bill,  as  it  stands,  proposes  to 
give  foreign  heirs  of  workmen  who 
are  killed  but  25  per  cent  of  the 
amount  that  would  be  paid  to  sur- 
viving relatives  were  they  living  in 
this    country. 

One  argument  which  was  presented 
was  that  the  law  would  make  em- 
ployers more  partial,  to  hiring  men 
with  families  in  the  old  countr.v.  It  is 
claimed  that  all  workmen  would  not 
be   given   an   equal    chance. 

St.  Joseph's  society,  an  Italian  so- 
ciety, will  meet  Thursday  night  next 
week  and  will  probably  take  some 
action  at  that  time.  A  committee  was 
organized  last  evening  to  take  charge 
of  the  agitation.  A.  Castigliano.  Ital- 
ian consul  residing  In  Duluth,  was 
named  chairman,  and  Marion  Boochar- 
dl    was    selected    secretary.

Winner  of  Brown-Goodman 
Bout  Will  Meet  "Knock-

On  the  stage  of  the  Superior  opera 
house  next  Monday  night  will  bo 
staged  the  first  of  a  series  of  boxing 
matches  that  are  expected  to  Include 
most  of  the  bright  133-pound  stars  of 
the  country. 

First  comes  Pal  Brown,  the  dynamic 
Hlbblng  lightweight,  who  will  box  ten 
ruonds  with  Chicago  Danny  Goodman. 
Both  boys  box  alike — toe  to  toe  with 
their  opponent,  always  working.  A 
glance  at  the  records  will  show  that 
Goodman  has  boxed  a  draw  with  Ad 
Wolgast.  The  story  of  that  bout  shows 
that  Wolgast  went  out  determined  to 
rough  it  with  the  Chicogan.  and  that 
Danny  outpointed  him  in  six  rounds 
of  the  ten-round  draw.  In  the  last 
four  rounds  Wolgast  "got  clever"  for 
him  and  thus  broke  even.  Later  Wol- 
gast defeated  this  same  boy,  but  he 
"knew  that  he  had  been  in  an  exhibi- 
tion." 

There  are  legions  of  those  who  be- 
lieve that  Hibbing  Pal  Brown  pos- 
sesses championsiiip  form.  Goodman 
is  expected  to  prove  a  better  trial 
horse  for  the  range  boxer  than  wa.s 
Chicago  Chuck  Larson,  or  Dick  Hy- 
land. 

Two  preliminary  engagements  have 
been  arranged  between  boys  of  clev- 
erness  and   Jiggressiveness. 

The  winner  of  the  main  bout  on  Dec. 
"0  will  be  matched  for  the  same  ring 
with  New  York  "Knockout"  Brown. 
New  York  "Tommy"  Murphy,  conceded 
in  the  East  to  be  the  fastest  boxer  In 
America,  will  be  asked  to  meet  the 
winner  of  the  K.  O.  Brown  matcli. 
Thus  a  chain  of  "chances"  will  be  af- 
forded Pal  Brown  to  show  against  tht> 
best  In  the  East,  and  to  work  himself 
to  the  absolute  top  of  his  division. 
Should  he  survive,  there  remains  the 
Southern  and  Pacific  coast  boys,  and 
it  is  declared  by  the  promoter  of  Mon- 
day night's  show,  Mr.  Ulrlch.  that  a 
sufficient  monetary  guarantee  will  b(> 
offered  to  Induce  the  best  men  to  come 
to  the  American  Head*  of  the  Lakes  to 
box. 

News  from  Chicago  Indicates  that 
Goodman  will  enter  the  Superior  arena 
fit   to  box  any  one  of  his  poundage. 

Pal    Brown    has    arrived    in    Duluth 
looking  in  fine  trim.  If  "Fighting  Dick  ' 
Hyland    of    California    hit    him    durins 
their  Christmas    bout,   no   one   can   no- 
tice  It.

KILBANE  IS  SORE. 

Figures  New  York  Fight  Commission 
Is  Against  Him. 

New  York,  Dec.  28. — Johnny  Kilbane. 
featherweight  champion,  objects  to  the 
raising  of  weight  scales  in  his  class  by 
the  state  athletic  commission.  He 
says  it  is  unfair  to  him  to  Increase  the 
featherweight  limit  from  122  to  125 
pounds  ringside,  for  the  reason  that  he 
can  do  122  without  seriously  weaken- 
ing himself,  and  that  he  won  his  title 
at  that   notch. 

Kilbane  declares  that  the  commis- 
sion made  the  change  to  benefit  the 
New  York  featherweights.  Kilbane 
wade  a  sorry  showing  here  in  bouts 
with  Dundee  and  O'Keefe,  and  because 
he  was  justly  scored,  he  has  reached 
the  conclusion  that  all  New  Y'ork  is

Boxing  Bill  to  Be  Introduced  in  Wis- 
consin Legislature  This  Winter. 

Kenosha,  Wis.,  Dec.  28. — Boxing  pro- 
moters and  followers  are  behind  an 
effort  to  have  a  bill  legalizing  boxing 
Introduced     in     the     state     legislature 

when  It  meets  Jan.  8.  Representatives 
of  the  boxing  interests  have  been  sent 
to  New  York  to  study  the  Frawley  law 
and  prepare  to  draft  a  modern  bill 
permitting    limited-round    contests. 

Before  agitation  was  started  for 
such  a  bill  promoters  of  Milwaukee. 
Racine  and  Kenosha  got  together  and 
agreed  to  bury  the  hatchet,  if  a  law 
could  be  passed.  It  was  jealousy  and 
quarrels  between  the  promoters  them- 
selves that  caused  the  ban  to  be  placed 
on  boxing  In  the  state  and  there  Is 
hope  that  with  friendly  co-operation 
the   sport   may    be    revived. 

An  effort  was  made  two  years  ago 
to  obtain  the  presentation  of  a  similar 
bill,  but  bickerings  among  the  pro- 
moters  killed   the   scheme.

Mexico  City,  Dec.  28. — Thirty  thou- 
sand Mexicans  left  their  country  for 
homes  In  the  United  States  last  year. 

This  intelligence  has  disturbed  the 
local  press,  a  part  of  which,  assuming 
that  the  emigrants  are  attracted  by  the 
higher  wages  paid  on  the  railroads,  in 
the  cotton  fields  and  at  industrial  cen- 
ters of  the  North,  are  sounding  a 
warning  against  what  they  describe  as 
"false  promises"  Intended  to  lure  the 
Mexican  laborer  across  the  line,  to  his 
disadvantage. 

Other  papers  explains  the  exodus  on 
the  ground  that  continued  revolutions 
have  robbed  the  toiler  of  an  opportu- 
nity to  follow  his  usual  vocation  and 
left  to  him  no  occupation  except  tflat 
of  fighting  his  countrymen.  He  Is 
pretty  tired  of  the  war  trade,  particu- 
larly as  it  must  be  pursued  at  the  risk 
of  his  own  life. 

Quite  a  different  view  of  the  situa- 
tion is  taken  by  some  observers,  who 
hold  that  an  even  greater  desertion 
of  working  men  might  prove  a  blessing 
In  disguise,  for  the  effect  on  the  pub- 
lic mind  would  be  an  economic  influ- 
ence in  restoring  tranquility  in  the 
state. 

•      *      • 

A  story  is  told  of  a  well  known 
American  mining  njan  In  Mexico,  whose 
foresight  probably  will  save  him  con- 
siderable money. 

During  the  Madero  revolution  his 
property  was  visited  frequently  by  the 
rebels,  who  forced  him  to  "contribute" 
lavishly  to  the  rebellion.  For  monies, 
horses,  provisions  and  other  things 
taken  he  was  given  the  "provisional" 
leceipts  through  the  evidence  of  which 
he  was  to  be  reimbursed  when  the  rev- 
olution triumphed. 

Soon  after  the  close  of  the  first 
revolution  the  mining  man  deposited  in 
the  office  of  the  minister  of  finance  the 
receipts,  which  called  for  some  $25,000. 
He  was  assured  that  in  due  time  he 
would  receive  his  money. 

It  was  not  forthcoming,  however, 
and  several  months  later  he  called 
again,  whereupon  he  was  told  that  un- 
fortunately the  receipts  which  lie  had 
presented  had  been  lost,  and  the  de- 
partment had  no  evidence  that  any- 
thing was  due  him.  It  was  added  that 
If  the  receipts  were  found  a  full  set- 
tlement  would   be  made. 

But  the  claimant  had  provided  for 
just  this  contingency,  and  the  next  day 
he  appeared  at  the  office  of  the  minis- 
ter and  deposited  a  new  and  complete 
set  of  receipts.  At  the  same  time  he 
informed  the  official  that  if  the  second 
lot  were  lost  he  could  replace  them,  as 
he  had  taken  the  precaution  to  make 
fifty  photographs  of  each  original  re- 
ceipt. 

Ov/ners  of  haciendas  on  which  grows 
the  maguey  plant  from  which  pulque 
Is  derived,  threaten  to  abandon  this 
crop  If  President  Madero  insists  upon 
the  proposed  measure  to  have  the  taxes 
on  the  milky  beverage  increased.  A 
committee  of  haciendados  recently  ob- 
tained from  the  president  a  promise 
to  give  the  bill  further  consideration. 

In  addition  to  the  taxes  now  paid  to 
the  various  state  governments,  the 
pulque  growers  already  pay  to  the 
Federal  government  $900,000  a  year. 
The  proposed  tax  would  raise  this  In- 
come $300,000. 

Pulque  sold  In  the  capital  comes  for 
the  most  part  from  the  states  of  Pueb- 
la,  Hidalgo  and  Tlaxcala.  The  plant- 
ers argue  that  since  their  properti<^s 
will  produce  little  else,  the  cessati  .n  of 
maguey  culture  would  result  in  throw- 
ing thousands  of  men  cfut  of  employ- 
ment in  the  country,  in  addition  to  the 
4.000  families  In  the  City  of  Mexico 
whose  Income  is  derived  from  the  local 
handling  of  the  beverage.  Other  losers 
would    be    the    railroads,    whose    daily 


freight      charges      are      approximately 
$1,000. 

*      •      • 

Calculations  made  at  the  department 
of  war  show  that  since  the  beginning 
of  Madero's  re\'olutlon  in  1910,  the 
Infantry  alone  has  used  200,000,000  cart- 
ridges. Most  of  these  were  bought  in 
Germany,  thougti  not  a  small  part — 
that  for  the  30-3i)  rifles — came  from  the 
United  States.  The  cavalry  and  irregu- 
lar forces  have  played  as  important 
part's  in  the  defense  of  the  government 
as  the  Infantry,  so  that  it  is  estimated 
the  total  expenditures  of  cartridges  has 
not  been  less  than  600,000,000.  Gen. 
Huerta's  report  c  f  the  battle  of  Rellano 
states  that  he  usied  1,500,000  cartridges 
and   2,500  shells.

HOIVIE    BO 


Every  time  you  come  down  town 
And  start  to  throw  your  money  'round 
Say  "Duluth  goods  are  the  stuff  for  me," 
Because  they  mean  prosperity. 


A  dollar  you  send  to  the  Eastern  shore 
Says :  "So  long,  Bill,  for  evermore." 
So  keep  it  here  and  you'll  hear  its  sound 
When  it  comes  back  to  hang  around. 


he  folks  around  are  getting  wise — 
_  here's  a  way  to  beat   those  "furin"  guys, 
Who  pocket  your  coin  and  never  come  'round 
With  enough  of  the  stuff  to  feed  a  hound. 


We  love  Duluth— the  great  North  gate- 
Our  motto  is  "co-operate". 
If  you  want  good  times  and  a  groaning 
Always  ask  for  the  Home  Made  Label.

Charges  Fair  Trial  Cannot 

Be  Had  in  Silver  Bow 

County. 

Butte,  Mont.,  Dec.  28. — In  support  of 
their  efforts  to  have  the  mining  case 
of  the  Anaconda  Copper  Mining  com- 
pany against  the  Butte-Ballaklava 
Mining  company  transferred  to  some 
other  county  for  trial,  the  attorneys 
for  the  Butte-Ballaklava  company  have 
charged  that  because  of  the  influence 
of  the  Anaconda  company  and  its  asso- 
qlated  interests  in  Butte  It  will  not  be 
possible  to  get  a  fair  and  impartial 
trial  before  the  courts  and  juries  of 
Silver  Bow  county.  Two  voluminous 
affidavits  made  by  James  A.  Murray 
and  P.  H.  Nelson  were  read  In  support 
of  the  motion  for  a  change  of  plac^ 
of  trial  by  T.  J.  Walsh  to  Judge  Lynch 
Monday.  James  A.  Murray,  the  bank- 
er, is  owner  of  the  Monidah  trust, 
which  Is  defendant  in  another  suit  In 
which  the  Anaconda  company  charges 
underground  trespass.  Mr.  Nelson  was 
formerly  president  and  general  mana- 
ger of  the  Butte-Ballaklava.  The  two 
affidavits  are  practically  identical  and 
relate  the  mining,  political  and  court 
history  of  Montana  and  Butte:  they 
tell  a  lot  about  the  Heize  litigation  and 
assert  that  the  "warfare"  was  carried 
into  every  walk  and  avenue  of  the 
business,  political  and  social  life  of 
the  state,  and  that  after  Heinze  was 
defeated  in  an  effort  to  perpetuate  his 
hold  of  the  courts  in  Butte  he  was 
forced  to  sell  out  to  interests  associ- 
ated with  the  Amalgamated.  It  Is  also 
charged  that  W.  A.  Clark  got  into  a 
vein  controversy  with  the  Anaconda 
company  and  that  one  of  the  reasons 
why  he  sold  his  copper  mines  to  the 
Anaconda  company  was  that  he  was 
afraid  to  submit  the  controversy  to  the 
judges  and  Juries  of  Silver  Bow  county 
on  account  of  the  Anaconda  influence. 
These  affidavits  assert  that  the  Ana- 
conda company  owns  or  controls  prac- 
tically the  entire  business  of  Silver 
Bow^  county,  including  about  every- 
thing going,  and  that  the  merchants 
are  afraid  of  the  big  company. 

The  defendant  has  also  affidavits 
from  Sid  Lafontlse  and  about  half  a 
dozen  other  miners  who  said  a  fair 
and  Impartial  trial  against  the  Ana- 
conda company  could  not  be  obtained. 

Affidavits  in  reply  by  officers  of  the 
Anaconda  compny  and  others  were  pre- 
sented. 

After  all  the  affidavits  had  been  road 
Mr.  Walsh  asked  for  time  in  which  to 
secure  affidavits  In  reply  to  those  filed 
for  the  Anaconda  company,  and  he  was 
given  until  today,  to  which  time  the 
further  hearing  of  the  case  was  con- 
tinued. 


MORE  CUBAN  LAND 

LEASED  BY  U.  S. 

Havana.  Dec.  28. — Arthur  M.  Boupre. 
the  United  States  minister,  and  Man- 
uel Sangily,  the  Cuban  secretary  of 
state,  have  signed  a  treaty  providing 
for  the  addition  by  lease  of  a  consid- 
erable tract  of  land  to  the  American 
naval  station  at  Guantanamo.  The  land 
is  needed  principally  for  its  water  sup- 
ply. In  return  for  it,  the  United  States 
government  surrenders  Its  claim  to  a 
site  for  a  naval  station  at  Bahia  Honda, 
on  the  north  coast  of  Cuba,  fifty-five 
miles  southwest  of  Havana.  The  Amer- 
ican government  has  never  occupied 
Bahia  Honda. 

The  treaty  now  signed  will  now  be 
sent  to  the  Cuban  and  American  sen- 
ates  for   ratification.

tained for  each  class.  The  number  haa 
revt-r  been  obtained,  and  Swedish  and 
Norwegian  are  not  now  taught  in  the 
Central    hitri'.    school. 

At  th^  <..i!i-  tim.e  French  and  Ger- 
mvin.  t!N-  •  V  ,  'nndern  languages  in  the 
schoi.:  !n,  are  taught  to  larg- 

numl'  -    idents.    many    of    them 

iiavit;-  1    connection    with    the 

Fren^  man  people. 

The  question  of  learning  foreign  lan- 
guages involves  also  the  question  of 
assimilation.  Does  it  restrict  or  broad- 
en the  child  for  general  education?  Is 
facility  in  the  use  of  the  English  lan- 
guage hampered  by  the  use  of  another 
language  in  the  home?  "Would  the 
best  interests  of  the  country  be  served 
by  having  the  children  of  foreign-born 
parent.^    cut    the    ties    of    the    mother 


coiintry  of  their  jiarents  by  learning 
only   the  language  of  America? 

From  the  standpoint  oi"  general  edu- 
cation, tlu-re  Is  no  objection  to  the 
childrt-n  of  foreign-born  parents  learn- 
ing the  language  of  their  lathers,  ac- 
CDrdlng  to  H.  K.  Denfeld,  superintend- 
ent of  schools. 

"There  are  many  considerations  in- 
volved ia  the  learning  of  foreign  lan- 
guage.s,"  said  Mr.  L>enfeld.  "French 
and  German  are  taught  gtUfrally  in 
the  schoids  berause  German  and  Fng- 
lish'  are  the  wurld-languages  of  trade 
and  French  is  the  language  of  diplo- 
ujaey.  Kducaiiun  in  French  and  Ger- 
man have  been  considered  for  years 
valuable  to  people  of  all  countrie.s.  not 
only  <>n  account  of  their  commen-  al 
and  diplomatic  value,  but  because  each 
country  has  a  groat  literature  which 
conveys  its  true  t>lgnit;cance  only  in 
the   original 

"As  far  as  the  study  of  other  lan- 
guages goes,  there  is  protit  to  the  in- 
di\idual  and  no  harm  to  the  individ- 
ual or  the  nation.  Even  though  the 
child  learns  the  language  of  his  par- 
ents and  speaks  it  in  the  home,  his 
Americanism  is  not  affected,  for  l»e 
speaks  Mnslisl!  outside  of  the  h.ome 
and  readily  adopts  the  customs  of  this 
country.  That  is  true  not  only  of 
children  born  in  this  country,  but  of 
children  born  in  other  countries  and 
brought  here  by  their  parent)}, 

"The  only  case  in  which  the  speak- 
ing of  a  foreign  language  generally  is 
a  restriction  on  progress  in  so-called 
'Americanization'  Is  In  communities  in 
which  no  English  is  spoken.  There  are 
sucii  coniimunities — colonies  of  imml. 
grants  from  one  country  who  retain 
not  only  their  own  language  but  their 
own  customs  and  viewpoint  of  life. 
The  More  the  Better. 

"In  a  cosmopolitan  community  the 
more  languages  a  man  can  comauand, 
the  more  advantage  he  iias  in  business 
ami  social  life. 

"Each  country  has  its  literature  and 
its  history,  which  may  be  learned  best 
through  its  language.  The  English 
language  is  not  strictly  a  grammatical 
language.  One  may  learn  the  basic 
principles  of  grammar  through  Latin, 
but  if  one  does  not  study  I^atin,  one 
may  gain  the  same  advantage,  in  a 
grammatical  way,  from  the  study  of 
almost  any  foreign  language,  for  they 
more  closely  observe  the  basic  rules 
of  gram>nxar  than  does  the  English  lan- 
guage. 

"Whether  from  business  or  senti- 
mental reasons,  the  study  of  another 
language  is  broadening  and  advan- 
tageous. In  very  young  children  It  is 
a  great  advantage  for  immediate  use 
l.n  conversing  with  parents  who  have 
not  ready  command  of  the  English 
language.  In  older  children,  it  gives 
them  nn  opportunity  to  get  a  broader 
viewpoint  en  life  by  the  study  of  works 
of  literature  that  are  not  available  to 
(  them  in   the  English  language." 

Other  answers  to  the  question  fol- 
low: 


has  brought  failure  hitherto.  The 
board  or  edueatlon,  however,  seems 
willing  to  let  the  languages  In  Just  as 


Rev.  J.  H.  StenherSr  pastor  First 
\orweglan    ehureh— 

In  answer  to  the  question,  "Should 
American-born  children  learn  the  lan- 
guage of  their  fathers?"  I  would  say 
yes,  and  especially  so  for  such  as  are 
born  in  the  great  Northwest,  where 
the  Scandinavians  are  so  numerous.  It 
has  practical  value  for  business  life 
and    church    life. 

Vv'hen  the  language  of  the  fathers 
is  not  learned  a  bond  of  sy.T.pathy  be- 
tween parents  and  children  is  broken. 
In  the  case,  too,  the  child  becomes  less 
ac<iuainted  with  the  heritage  of  their 
forefathers,  which  will  be  a  distinct 
loss  to  the  rising  generation.  An- 
other result  will  be  their  alienation 
from  the  church  of  their  forefathers. 
Drifting  from  one  church  to  another 
Is  often  a  perilous  thing.  T'ne  Nor- 
wegian people  iias  a  rlcjj  literature  and 
an  in.^plring  history,  which  every  Nor- 
wegian, wherever  he  may  be  born, 
ought  to  be  intimately  acquainted 
with.  And  we  all  know  the  advantage 
of  reading  history  and  literature  in 
the  original  language. 

The  efforts  to  keep  the  Norwegian 
language  alive  are  made  in  the  homes 
and  in  the  churches.  The  parents  teach 
their  children  at  home  and  the  work 
is  continued  In  the  Sunday  schools  and 
the  sunimer  parochial  schools.  These 
schools,  then,  have  a  two-fold  mission, 
that  of  teaching  a  language  and  of 
Imparting  religious  knowledge.  This  is 
also  done  In  the  eight  months  course 
of  catechetical  instruction  given  by 
the  pastor  prior  to  confirmation  each 
year. 

Efforts  have  also  been  made  to  have 
the  Scandin-avian  language  taught  in 
our    high   school,   but   lack    of    Interest

soon    as    there    are    pupils    enough    to

Ilev.  John  J.  Daniels,  pastor  Stve«ll.<th 
MtMctlon  ohurch — 

"Should  American  -  born  children 
learn  the  language  of  their  fathers?" 
I  most  decidedly  believe  that  thev 
should.  By  knowing  the  language  of 
our  fathers  we  will  love  and  respect 
them  more.  All  languages  are  beau- 
tiful and  valuable,  but  if  we  do  not 
understand  a  language  it  may  sound 
foolish    to   us,   and   if  the   children    im- 


REV.  J.  J.  DANIELS. 


agine  that  their  parents  speak  a  funny 
and  foolish  language  they  will  be 
ashamed  of  their  nationality,  and  they 
will  be  inclined  to  feel  ashamed  of 
tiielr  parents  also.  Parents  who  teach 
their  children  their  own  language  will 
be  more  respected  and  loved  by  theni 
and  will  consequently  have  a  greater 
pcwer   in   directing   their  lives. 

And  there  is  a  commercial,  political 
and  religious  value  in  knowing  more 
tlian  one  language.  American-born 
children  of  foreign  parentage  have  a 
greater  field  and  greater  opportunities 
if  they  know  the  langauge  of  their 
tat  hers.  And  when  this  valuable 
knowledge  can  be  attained  with  little 
effort  and  at  small  expense,  one  should 
net  be  "penny-wise  and  pound-foolish." 

The  greatest  wisdom  will  come  to  us 
by  comparison  and  experience  in  as- 
sociating with  different  people.  Our 
country  is  a  nation  of  nations.  Is  not 
the  wonderful  progress  of  America 
largely  due  to  the  friendly  competition 
of  our  many  nationalities?  Every  na- 
tionality may  have  something  to  teach 
us,  something  which  should  be  trans- 
planted  In   American   soil,    and   Araeri- 


can-boin  childien' vho  learn  the  lan-

There  is  no  s0.ired  language.  One 
language  is  just  aa.  good  as  the  other 
if  it  has  the  WOl^f  oy  which  we  can 
express  our  ttlougjits.  We  should  all 
learn  the  English  language  in  Amer- 
ica, but  some  \  _Jorelgners  become 
'Americanized"  tfll#»  fast.  It  is  not  a 
good  .Minn  if  a  witlower  gets  married 
too  soon.  Anil  it  is  not  a  good  sign 
when  foreigners  forget  their  mother 
tongue  In  a  few  months  and  feel 
ashamed  of  telling  what  country  they 
came  from.  A  patriot  In  one  country 
will  become  a  patriot  in  another,  and 
an  undesirable  citizen  in  one  cjuntry 
will  most  likely,  be  in  tiie  same  class 
In  another.  The  most  dangerous  cle- 
mtnt  In  America  today  is  found  among 
tiie  American- born  foreigners  who 
speak  English  ii)\d  frown  upon  ihie 
iGi.guage  of  thelt?  fathers.  Anierlcan- 
boin  parents  may  be  excused  for  teach- 
ing their  children  the  English  lan- 
guage only,  but  for  the  good  of  all 
I  nd  for  the  welfare  of  our  country,  we 
should  encourage  children  of  foreign 
parentage  to  learn  the  language  of 
their  fathers.

Rev.    J.   Zarllli,      pantor      of      St 
ter's  (atholif   cUiirvh,   <  Italian) — 

You  ask  my  opinion  on  the  subject 
"Should  American-Horn  Children  l^earn 
the  Language  of  Their  Fathers."  I 
shall  answer  without  hesitation  and 
even  with  some  emphasis  that  they 
should  if  they  have  an  opportunity  to 
do  so. 

We    all    admit .  and   agree    that    it    Is 


REV.  JOHN  ZARILLI. 


better  to  know  several  than  to  know 
one  language,  as  long  as  many  lan- 
guages are  spoken  in  the  world.  This, 
which  is  true  everywhere,  is  especially 
true  in  this  country  for  business  re- 
lations ajid  everyday  intercourse  on 
account  of  Immigration,  which,  in  all 
probability,  will  continue  for  many 
years  yet.  Business  and  professional 
men  often  ask  for  bo>s  and  girls  born 
In  tills  country  and  well  educated  who 
can  speak,  read  and  tvrlte  other  lan- 
guages besides  the  English.  There- 
fore, if  other  languages  besides  the 
English  should  be,  learned  by  a  child 
It  is  proper  that  Ive  sho.uld  learn  the 
language  of  his  parents  which  would 
also  come  easier  to  him  than  any 
other  one. 

The  knowledge  of  two  languages 
opens  a  broader  field  in  the  study  of 
literature.  ^  The  literatures  of  all  na- 
tions, more  or  less,  have  some  splen- 
did standard  classics  worthj-  to  be  read 
and  to  l)e  read  In  their  originals.  The 
Italian  literature  is  very  rich  in  such 
•works  in  prose  of  poetry  from  our  old 
Dante  to  our  recent  Manzoni  and  the 
knowledge  of  the  language  would  open 
to  an  Italian  child  born  in  America 
an  access  to  all  those  great  mas- 
ters. 

Besides  for  the  Italian  language  In 
particular  I  can  add  that  its  knowl- 
edge would  help  much  to  a  deeper 
knowledge  of  the  English  language. 
I  mean  the  high  English,  not  the  An- 
glo-Saxon words.  The  Italian  lan- 
guage Is  practically  all  from  the  Latin 


and  everybody  who  has  studied  the 
Latin  knows  the  nfflnltv  of  the  Latin 
with  the  high  English  language. 

And  Anally,  having  been  asked  to 
tell  my  opinion  as  a  representative 
of  the  Italians,  If  1  am  allowed  to  talk 
with  an  Italian  heart — a  heart  which, 
without  ceasing  to  be  Italian,  beats 
nevertheless  for  Ajuerlca  not  less  than 
that  of  anybody  born  In  this  country — 
If  1  can  talk  with  an  Italian  heart 
will  say:  Many  people,  many  Ameri- 
cans study  and  learn  the  Italian  only 
for  pleasure,  only  because  they  think 
it,  as  It  is,  a  beautiful  language  Why. 
therefore,  should  American  children 
born  of  Italian  parents  be  deprived  of 
the  knowledge  of  this,  the  sweetest 
of  all  languages,  the  language  of  mu- 
sic, 1  say  better,  the  language  that 
makes  the  musical  melodies  more  melo- 
dious? 

But  above  all  these  there  is  still  a 
higher  reason  why,  to  my  opinion,  th" 
language  of  their  fathers  should  be 
tauglit  to  American  children  born  oi 
foreign  parents.  Every  nation  has  iu 
its  traditions,  customs  or  history  some- 
thing great  to  tell,  something  to  bt 
proud  of.  something  to  make  the  heart 
of  the  child  happy  In  knowing  that 
their  parents  come  from  such  a  coun- 
try. This,  together  with  the  inspira- 
tions prompted  from  the  memories  of 
the  founders  of  this  great  republic, 
should  add  to  the  courage,  to  the  en- 
ergy of  the  child,  should  stimulate  his 
emulation  so  as  to  make  him  feel  that 
he  should  not  be  a  degencyate  of  his 
forefathers,  but  he  should  try  his  ut- 
most to  be  a  good  citizen  of  this  coun- 
try, where  people  of  all  countries  are 
living,  have  the  same  emulation  and 
watch  him.  I  compare  life  to  a  school. 
Emulation  often  makes  a  child  study 
with  ardor  in  school,  and  emulation  al- 
so often  makes  a  man  act  w^ith  vigor 
in  life. 

I  speak  for  the  Italians,  so  will  ask: 
How  much  will  an  Italian  child  learn, 
derive  inspiration  from  the  history  of 
the.  country  of  his  parents,  whether  he 
reads  the  Italian  Roman  history,  or  the 
history  of  Italy  in  the  middle  ages,  or 
the  history  of  Italy  as  the  center  of 
Christianity?  Now  all  fair-minded 
will  agree  with  me  that  an  Italian- 
American  child  will  be  able  to  learn 
these  things  better  in  their  proper,  true 
light  and  spirit  only  if  he  knows  the 
language  of  his  forefathers. 

On  the  other  iiand  this  is  not,  to  my 

judgment,  an  obstacle  at  all  to  the  uni- 
fication or,  as  we  say,  to  the  Ameri- 
canization of  all  the  people  living  in 
this  country.  The  children  born  here 
all  will  and  all  dj  learn  the  American 
language  anyway.  They  learn  it  in 
school,  in  the  street,  from  other  chil- 
dren, I  almost  saj',  from  the  air.  1 
have  not  met  yet  an  Italian  cliild 
born  in  this  country  who  could  not 
talk  Ji^nglish,  because  he  could  speak 
Italian.  Besides  American  civilization, 
like  a  great,  gigantic,  powerful  ma- 
chine; like,  if  this  comparison  is  al- 
lowed, and  with  the  celerity  of  the  stu- 
pendous railway  system  of  this  coun- 
try, the  American  civilization  moves 
on  and  conquers,  and  assimilates,  and 
amalgamates  everytliing  and  every- 
body living  here,  arui  it  is  impossible 
to  fes'st  it.  It  is  impossible  to  live 
here  a  few  months  and  not  become 
American  at  heart — I  felt  that  myself. 

The  only  thing  necessary,  of  course. 
Is  to  know  the  language  of  this  coun- 
try In  order  to  feel  the  aspirations,  the 
ideas,  the  movement  that  is  going  on 
around  us.  So,  It  seems  to  me,  to 
Americanize  the  different  races  in 
this  great  nation  it  Is  not  necessary 
to  make  the  children  of  the  immi- 
grants forget  the  language  of  their 
parents,  but  to  teach  the  parents  the 
language  of  their  children. 

To  your  other  question'.  What  has 
been  done  to  keep  the  language  alive 
In  Duluth  In  the  present  and  future 
generations — as  for  as  the  Italian  l.'\n- 
guage  Is  concerned,  I  am  sorry  to  be 
obliged  to  answer  that  not  much  has 
been  done  yet  in  Duluth.  The  parish 
is  rather  young,  has  been  organized 
only  a  few  years  ago  and  naturally 
everything  cannot  be  done  at  once.  I 
am.  nevertheless,  hopeful  that  some- 
thitig  will  be  done  In  this  direc- 
tion In  the  near  future,  although  I  a'n 
not  yet  in  position  to  say  what  and 
how  soon  it  will  be  done. 


well  for  American-born,  chlldrtn  to 
leaiii  the  language  of  their  fathers, 
because  some  wlsti  man  of  soiiie  .vhere 
has,  at  some  time,  wisely  said  that    "one

and  St.  Paul's  C'atliolie  Cbnrcit  4 Polish). 

Ver.v  many  American-born  children 
have  had  to,"  and  for  yet  a  genera tl<-,n 
or  two,  though  Immigration  might 
spontaneously,  or  by  act  of  congress, 
cease,  will  have  to  learn  the  language 
of  their  fathers,  unless  some  fathers 
are  to  be  but  "dumb  dogs"  within  their 
household,  or  will  have  acquired  the 
gift  of  tongues  on  reaching  Ellis  isl- 
and. 

Furthermore,    it    would    seem    to    be 


REV.  J.  F.  CIEMINSKI. 


IS    as    many    times    a    man    as    he    las 
languages  at  his  command." 

To  the  man  of  business,  familiarity 
with  a  language  or  two,  together  with 
his  own,  is  an  invaluable  commercial 
asset. 

The  wisdom  an-i  learning  that  come 
to  us  as  the  heritage  of  past  ages  have 
not  chosen  an.v  one  tongue  for  their 
transmission.  It  (s  of  advantage,  then, 
to  be  able  to  garner  the  ripe  fruit  of 
gifted  minds  of  many  nations  by  the 
familiar  use  of  that  medium  through 
which  any  particular  wealth  of  thought 
was  first  expressed. 

No  one  can  well  deny  that  the  oriqrin 
and  historic  experience  of  nations  are 
as  varied  as  are  the  circumstances  of 
birth  and  personal  experience  of  in- 
dividuals. To  know  a  man  anywhere 
near  well,  one  should  know  the 
thoughts  he  thlnlis:  to  know  a  nation, 
one  should  be  acquainted  with  its 
trials,  aims,  ideals  and  aspirations;  to 
know  mankind,  one  must  know  the 
heait-throbs  of  the  geographical,  racial 
and  political  unitf;  that  compose  it.  Tlie 
heart-throbs  of  i  he  nations  are  best 
told  at  the  nationdl  firesides.  To  know 
them  well,  one  must  know  the  lan- 
guage that  conveys  them. 

'However,  the  implied  meaning  of 
.vour  query:  "Should  American -born 
children  learn  the  language  of  their 
•  athers?*  would  lathtr  seem  to  be;  "Is 
It  well  for  American-born  children  to 
be  linked  to  the  rountrics  of  their  an- 
cestry 'oy  means  i>f  the  language  of 
llicir  fathers?"  Will  not  the  thus 
awakened  sympathy  inlluence  adversely 
the  (luality  of  their  American  citizen- 
ship? 

Trust  the  boy  ^ho  carries  about  with 
him  the  memory  of  his  aged  mother 
Moments  of  temptation,  of  trial  and  in- 
decision might  come,  but  the  mental 
vision  of  mother  "back  home '  will  be 
for  him  the  truir  pet  call  to  honorable 
conduct.  Civic  virtue  is  the  same  the 
wide  world  over.  The  struggle  made 
hy  lorelgn-born  American  citizens  to 
enable  their  American-born  chHdren  to 
learn  the  language  of  their  fathers  is 
but  an  earnest  and  praiseworthy  effort 
to  keep  their  children  In  familiar  touch 
with  what  was.  and  is,  in  each  particu- 
lar immigrant  g  native  land  the  best 
and  noblest.  To  know  intimately  and 
at  first  Tiand  the  great  and  noble  of  any 
nation,  however  small,  cannot  but  lift 
up  and  ennoble  the  citizenship  of  for- 
eign-born fathersi"  American-born  chil- 
dren. 

No  need  at  al!  to  compile  thoughts 
on  this  matter.  The  underlying  and 
compelling  motive  Is  everywhere  the 
same.  The  swaggering  and  lordlv 
Briton  cannot  outdo  the  crush?d  and 
1  broken  Finn  In  love  and  respect  .ind 
reverence  for  tie  great  ones  of  his 
I  father's  native  land. 

j  To  ask  a  Polo's  expression  on  the 
language  question  Is  like  prying  int'> 
the  child  heart's  sercet  feelings  for  its 
mother.  We  are  un  aggrieved  nation;  a 
generous  and  proud  people  unjustLv 
crushed  to  earth.  Our  cry  Is  that  of 
the   children   of    the   Jews   as   they   sat 


by  the  waters  of  tlie  rivers  of  Babylon. 
We  are,  moreover,  a  religious  people, 
with  a  reverent  and  chlld-IIke  confi- 
dence in  God,  our  Heavenly  Fatner, 
and  we  love  to  come  to  Him  undis- 
guised. We  8hould«blush  to  have  Him 
say  to  us:  "The  voice  Is  Indeed  iho 
voice  of  Jacob,  but  the  har,^  are  the 
hands  of  Esau."  We  would  kneel  be- 
fore Him  as  we  grev/,  without  lying 
furs  or  trimmings. 

In  Duluth  tired  and  sleepy  Polish 
mothers  are  nightly  crooning  the  old 
Polish  "baby  .songrs"  over  sometimes 
home-made  and  none  too  richly  fui- 
nished  cradles;  xvhile  usually  poor  and 
hard-worked  Poli.sh  fatliers  are  sup- 
porting three  churches  and  two  schools 
in  which  the  Polish  language  is  both 
taught  and  spoken.  And  the  result? 
In  time  of  peace  we  vote  and  pray  and 
pay  our  taxes.  We  tend  the  looms  of 
Eastern  textle  works,  and  turn  the  rich 
fields  of  the  Western  prairies.  Wo

Rev.  Franels  Hufnagel,  pastor. 
Church  of  St.  Anthony  de  Padua  (Ger- 
man)— In  answer  to  your  question: 
"Should  American-born  children  learn 
the  language  of  their  fathers,"  I  wi.=h 
to  say  most  emphatically,  yes.  In  cas'i 
the  parents  are  of  different  nationali- 
ties, the  mother  tongue  of  both  should 
be  taught  the  children  so  that  they 
may  be  able  to  converse  fluently  in 
them.  The  more  languages  a  man  or 
woman  is  able  to  speak  in  this  great 
country  of  ours,  the  greater  their  use- 
fulness and  benefit  to  society  and 
themselves. 

Rt.  Rer.  James  MrGolriok,  bishop 
of   Uulnth. 

Personally.  I  have  no  objection  to 
any  child  learning  the  language  of  tha 
parents;  It  is  easily  acquired  and  is  ex- 
"ellent  and  even  necessary  in  family 
life. 

The  language  of  the  country  Is  Eng- 
lish and  for  many  reasons  should  be 
well  to  any  child  who  is  to  make  this 
country  its  home.  Ti»e  want  of  Eng- 
lish handicaps  the  boy  or  girl,  in  every 
Doint  of  view,  who  enters  into  business 
or  .social  relations  with  fellow  citizens. 

It  is  a  great  pleasure  to  hear  many 
of   our   children   speak    French    or   Ger-

r-ian  as  well  as  English.  Such  knowl- 
ed,?e  widens  the  mind  and  gives  the 
childrea  a  double  advantage  ia  tlieir 
whole  course   through  life. 

I  do  not  think  that  the  Gaelic  re-

Gr»elic  language  is  a  dead  letter  out- 
side of  those  who  learned  it  in  the 
old  country.

Willia;.'.  U.  Wing,  2'j.  Both  charged  de- 
sertion, but  Mrs.  Wing,  in  the  opinion 
of  the  court,  had  the  better  case. 

The  Winss  w.  re  married  by  a  munic- 
ipal j'-.i^.-  at  Stillwater  on  April  7, 
1911.  and  separated  upon  the  same  day, 
when  Wing  admitted  to  his  wife  that 
he  had  deceived  her  into  believing  tiiat 
she  could  have  their  marriage  blessed 
by  a  prii'.st  of  the  Catholic  church. 

Mrs.  Wing  is  of  the  Catholic  faith, 
•which  forbids  t'ae  remarriage  of  di- 
vorcee.=».  .She  claimed  that  she  knew 
nothing  of  tiie  former  marriage  of  her 
husband  until  just  before  her  marriage 
to  Wing. 

When  she  learned  of  It  she  refused 
to  proceed  but  was  urged  to  do  so 
on  Wing's  as-^uranca  that  he  had  been 
to  see  a  Catholic  priest  In  Duluth  and 
that  hn  had  thing.-*  "fixed"  so  that  the 
marriage  cculd  afterwards  be  sancti- 
fied, later  he  said,  they  could  go 
through  the  regular  Catholic  cere- 
n:cny. 

Directly  after  the  marriage,  Mrs. 
Winj?  lea.  ned  from  her  husband  that 
tv'lns  hi'.il  not  setn  the  priest.  They 
immediately  separated,  the  bride  going 
back  to  her  home  in  St.  Paul  and 
Wing   returnin:?    to    Duluth. 

Wing     first    tried    to    patch     up     the 


matter  bv  writing  her  letters.  Then  J 
he  brought  suit  for  divorce  on  the 
grounds  of  desertion.  In  her  answer, 
Lhe  put  In  a  counter  claim,  charging 
the  same.  It  was  her  potltlon  that  was 
granted.

WEEKLY  REVIEW  OF  TRADE 


New  York,  Dec.  23. — Dun's  review 
says  today;  The  notable  development 
at  the  close  of  the  year  Is  the  tremen- 
dous expansion  in  exports,  the  move- 
ment from  the  port  of  New  Y'ork  for 
the  latest  week  amounting  to  $2G.376.- 
000 — J4, 136,000  larger  than  in  1911. 
There  is  some  slowing  down  of  do- 
mestic operations  in  the  closing  weeks 
of  the  year,  as  is  usual,  yet  the  cur- 
rent statistics  of  business  continue  al- 
most as  noteworthy  as  those  of  foreign 
commerce. 

Bank  clearings  (about  the  best  meas- 
ure of  activity  available)  increased  this 
week  11.9  per  cent  as  compared  with 
1911,    and    railroad   gross    earnings    for 


the   first    half    of   December    gained    C.8 
per  cent. 

Retail  holiday  trade  was  of  Imposing 
proportions,  and  this  has  a  favorable  ef- 
fect on  wholesale  trade  and  on  industt  lal 
lines.  In  the  Iron  and  steel  trade  the 
chief  feature  Is  the  continued  heavy 
purchases  by  the  railroads.  There  are 
shorter  holiday  suspensions  of  work 
this  year  than  Is  usual,  owing  to  the 
Insistence  of  demand.  The  grain  and 
cotton  markets  show  continued  large 
domestic  movement  and  export.s.  In- 
terest in  the  financial  markets  Is  still 
keen  as  to  the  result  of  the  Balkan 
peace  negotiations  in  London,  but  a 
holiday  quietness  generally  prevails.

ROOSEVELT  PAINTS 
IDEAL  HISTORIAN 


Addresses  Combined  Meet- 
ing of  Six  Learned  So- 
cieties in  Boston. 

Boston,  Mass.,  Dec.  28. — Col.  Theo- 
dore Roosevelt,  speaking  on  "History 
of  Literature"  in  Symphony  hall  last 
night,  addressed  members  of  six  na- 
tional associations  now  holding  con- 
ventions here.  He  Is  president  of  ono 
of  these  societies,  the  American  His- 
torical association.  The  other  organ- 
izations are  the  American  Association 
for  Labor  Legislation;  the  American 
Sociological  society,  the  American 
Statistical  association,     the     American 


Economic  association,  and  the  Amer- 
ican Political  Science  association. 

Col.  Roosevelt  discussed  at  lengtfi 
the  art  of  the  historian  from  the  stand- 
points of  science,  poetry,  mythology 
and  literature.  He  argued  that  history 
should  welcome  the  entrance  upon  its 
domain  of  every  science,  and  that  fu- 
ture historians  should  make  use  of 
material  from  every  possible  source  to 
convey  livid  and  life-like  pictures  to 
others  of  the  past  whose  secrets  they 
lay    bare. 

The  great  historian  of  the  future,  lie 
declared,  would  be  the  man  who  had 
the  genius  to  reconstruct  for  his  read- 
ers the  immense  panorama  of  the  past. 
He  must  possess  knowledge  and  wis- 
dom. He  must  use  his  material  with 
such  potent  wizardry  that  "we  shall  see 
che  life  that  was,  and  not  the  death 
that  Is.  Whether  it  be  Egypt  or  Mesa- 
potamla  or  .Scandinavia  with  which  he 
deals,  the  great  historian,  if  the  facts 
permit  him,  will  put  before  us  the  men 
and  women  as  they  actually  lived  so 
that  we  shall  recognize  them  for  what 
they    were — Rving    beings."

Missabe  Railroad  to  Make 

It  More  Convenient  for 

Hibbing. 

Hibbing,  Minn.,  Dec.  1:8. — (Special  to 
The  Herald. » — The  Commercial  club  has 
won  a  victory  in  having  the  telegraph 
office  moved  nearer  to  the  business 
center,  according  to  an  announcement 
made  by  Supt.  Kreiter  of  the  Missabc 
road  while  here  yesterday  afternoon. 
He  announced  that  the  Missabe  Tele- 
graph company  8  office,  which  has  been 
about  a  mile  away,  down  on  Cent'-r 
street,  since  the  old  Missabe  depot  was 
moved,  will  be  brought  up  town  to  the 
American  Express  company's  ofTlco 
Jan.    2. 

The  Missabe  company  will  continue 
its  telegraph  connection  with  the  West- 
ern  Union  Telegraph  on  business  be- 
yond Duluth,  but  It  is  anticipated  that 
tile   service   will   be   much   bettered. 

The  telegraph  question  has  been  a 
thorn  In  the  side  of  local  people  for 
years,  and  the  disposition  at  last  shown 
to  better  conditions  is  pleasing  to  the 
Commercial  club  and  business  men  gen- 
erally. It  is  said  the  Missabe  has  al- 
ways tried  to  do  the  right  thing,  but 
could  not  seem  to  make  favorable  ar- 
rangements with  the  Western  Union.

UNION  LABOR  NOTES

the  state  convention  of  union  brick- 
layers, masons  and  plasterers,  which 
was  held  at  Mankato  last  week.  He 
was  secretary  of  the  state  conference. 
He  says  that  there  are  1,419  union 
bricklayers  in  Minnesota,  a  slight  do- 
crease  owing  to  the  fact  that  many  of 
the  craft  are  -working  In  Canada  and 
in  other  states  where  there  Is  activity 
in  building.  R.  M.  Colvllle  of  Virginia

FEWER  CATTLE  KILLED. 

Report  on  the  Chicago  Stock  Yards 
Is  Made. 

Chicago,  Dec.  28. — Fewer  cattle  by 
281.296  have  b<  en  received  at  the  Chi- 
cago stock  yards  this  year  than  in 
1511.  Despite  this  fact,  more  money 
was  paid  for  beef  during  1912  than 
there  was  In  J911  by  $3,282,735.  The 
total  paid  out  this  year  was  $183,- 
488,909. 

Three  reasons  are  given  for  the  in- 
creased price  of  beef:  The  western 
states  did  not  raise  as  many  cattle  as 
usual;  owing  to  drouths,  many  farmer.s 
are  turning  their  pastures  into  whf'at 
fields,  and  the  demand  for  beef  has  in- 
creased. It  was  explained  that  the 
population  in  the  United  States  in  the 
last  twenty  years  had  increased  20 
per  cent,  whil*  the  increase  in  cattle 
production   has   been   only  8  per  cent. 

Beef  exports  fell  off  this  year,  owing 
to  the  big  home  demand.  In  1911  there 
■were  47,000  cattle  exported  from  the 
Chicago  yards,  compared  with  23,000 
this    year.

Harvard    won    the    football    title — a 
clear  and  undisputed  right  to  be  hailed  ; 
as  the  greatest  of  all  1912  teams.    The  , 
aid    year    observed    the    humbling    of  I 
Old  Eli  and  gallant  Nassau  and  the 
crowning  of  the  Crimson.     Great  was 
the  old  year  in  the  football  way,  and 
great  was  the  team  that  won  the  title.

Americans  were  tlie  sensations  of  the  j 
year,    the    surprise,    the    dismay,    the  i 
original   upsetters   of  the   dope.     The 
Giants    were    expected   to   repeat;    so 
were  the  Athletics,  and  there  was  the 
rub,  and  a   right  violent  one,  too. 

As  for  track  athletics,  the  year  was 
one  of  the  most  notable  of  the  Ion 
string  of  years  that  have  passed.  Ou 
team,  perhaps  the  finest  aggregation 
of  athletes  in  the  history  of  the  world, 
won  the  Olympiad,  and  that  indeed  is 
an  event  that  ^tand3  out  in  bold  type 
of  accomplishment. 

Meredith,  the  famous  kid  who  sur- j 
prised  the  critics  and  defeated  the  ■ 
wonderful  Mel  Sheppard  and  the  re- i 
doubtable  Davenport,  is  one  of  the  | 
j  wonders  of  the  age  and  one  of  the  dis-  j 
tinct  developments  of  the  old  year,  i 
Hannes  Kolehmainen,  the  famous  lit-  ^ 
tie  Finn,  perhaps  the  greatest  runner  | 
since  the  halcyon  days  of  the  late  j 
William  George,  is  another  athlete  1 
who  sprang  securelv  into  a  niche  of 
fame  during  the  fading  year. 

This  man,  with  Meredith  and  Jim 
Thorpe,  the  famous  Indian  and  with- 
out    doubt     the     greatest     all-round 


charpTP    in    science,    for     I'alziM-     liasiit 
any  at  all. 

"I   look   for   thl.s   to   biinpr  out  a   real 

cliamiiion.      I    miijht    yo    even    furtlur 

and   say    that   the    winner,    with    proper 

l>rei)arati'>n   for   a   reasonable   liji>Kth    of 

time,   wuuM   have  a  aplendhl  chance  of 

!  drfejitins    Johnson,    for    I    believe    that 

I  .Johnson  i.s  going   the  way  of  many  top- 

1  nolchers.    by    tile    way    of    the    i>rimroae 

i  path.     Certainly  he  did   not   put  up  the 

j  fight  against  Flynn  that  McCarty  did." 

Speaking     of     lightweights.     Corbett 

I  expressed  tlie  opinion  that   Kitcble  and 

I  Wolgast  will  ni>t  meet  for  some  time. 

I      "If    Ritchie    is    positive    and    certain 

that   he   can   defeat    Wolgast   again,    he 

^^ill   probably  give  hlni  another  chance. 

If  I  were  in  his  place  and  did  not  have 

that   confidence.    1    might   not   meet  him 

again,  at  least  not  for  quite  a  while. 

•1  remt-mber  the  time  that  Young 
Corbett,  after  he  had  surprised  the 
pugilistic  world  by  defeating  Terry 
McG.jvern.  asked  me  to  call  on  him  in

title.  To  many  Zbyszko  is  the  logical 
claimant  of  the  crown  and  has  the 
right,  if  Gotch  is  through,  to  lay 
claim  to  it.  He  beat  Mahmout  and 
has  been  beaten  only  by  the  great 
Gotch. 

Cutler,  Westergaard  and  Ordemann 
remain  as  the  three  leading  Ameri- 
can heavyweights.  During  the  new 
year  this  trio  is  expected  to  settle 
the  question  as  to  the  rightful  holder 
of  the  somewhat  ambi^ous  Ameri- 
can championship. 

Neither  is  the  middleweight  title 
determined.  Miller,  Yokel  and  Geh- 
ring  are  the  contenders,  with  Toe 
Carr,  the  husky  youth  of  Minneapolis, 
as  one  of  the  outside  contenders.  Du-

well  kept,  prepossessing  Corbett  of  old, 
when  he  was  the  Beau  Brummel  of 
the  prize  ring.  And  he  doesn't  look 
but  ■&.  shade  older.  Jim  years  ago  dis- 
carded the  pompadour  which  helped 
to  save  his  former  press  agents  their 
jobs,  but  he  hasn't  lost  any  hair.  And 
•he  is  as  lithe,  agile  and  as  full  of 
health    and    buoyant   spirits    as   ever. 

'How  do  you  do   it?"   he  was  asked. 

"Well."  was  the  reply,  "by  keeping 
busy,  being  falrlv  regular  in  all  my

was  lai'i  out  in  as  direct  a  line  as 
pcssibl'.-,  ;i  i:d  we  propose  to  take  ad- 
vantage lit'  this  dirfot  route  where  ad- 
visable, \\hile  serving  the  best  inter- 
ests of  tie  ct)untry  through  which  it 
passes. 

Citizens  all  over  the  southern,  west- 
ern and  northern  parts  of  the  state 
have  applitd  for  assistance  in  the 
building  of  new  roads.  The  territory 
betwetn  Duluth  and  St.  I'aul  Is  prac- 
tically the  only  part  of  the  state  that 
has  not  iipplied  for  help  in  the  con- 
Btructioii  iiii.l  maintenance  of  a  road 
uiider  ti'.c  new  Elwell  law.  St.  Paul, 
Minneapolis  and  the  state  highway 
conimission  are  very  desirous  of  hav- 
ing the  Twin  Cities  and  Duluth  con- 
nected with  a  direct  main  trunk 
higiiway. 

PropoMrd  Roa«l. 
The  road  we  propose  to  build  from 
Duluth  south  will  pass  through  West 
I'uluih,  Smithville,  the  steel  plant, 
Gary,  New  Duluth  and  Fond  du  Lac, 
crossing  th--  ;iver  at  Fond  du  Lac  and 
pas.-sing  tiiiuugh  or  near  W'rensl'.all. 
and  will  opm  up  not  only  one  of  the 
brst  farming  districts  in  the  state,  but 
will  make  accessible  some  of  tiie 
grandest  scenery  in  the  Northwest — 
ecenery  which  cannot  be  excelled  east 
of  the  It'.cky  mountains.  The  at- 
tractions of  the  beautiful  scmery  thus 
offered  by  this  thirty-mile  drive  Avil! 
brlng^  to  Duluth  and  vicinity  people 
from  all  parts  of  the  country  to  tour 
durln.g  the  summer  season;  especially 
so  Inside  of  the  next  three  years,  when 
the  trunk  road  from  Duluth  to  Grand 
Marais  will  have  been  completed,  mak- 
ing one  of  the  grandest  boulevards  or 
pleasure  drives  to  be  found  in  the 
Vnited  Stat- s.  This  road  eventually 
Is  to  connect  with  the  Winnipeg-New 
Orleans  road. 

In  my  judgment,  it  would  be  difficult 
to  estimate  the  ber.efits  to  be  derived 
by  Duluth  and  the  ranges  In  having 
this  main  trunk  highway  constructod, 
making  it  possible  to  bring  to  Duluth 
the  products  of  thousands  of  acres  in 
tho  soutliprn  and  (astern  parts  of 
Carlton  and  Pine  counties,  which  are 
ready  from  two  to  three  weeks  earlier 
than  those  In  Duluth  and  immediate 
vicinit^•.  and  which  will  be  brought  to 
Duluth  by  automobile  by  the  farmers 
themselves  In  the  very  near  future. 
"What  is  an  automobile?  Nothing  but 
a  wagon  with  a  gasoline  motor  at- 
tached. And  the  time  is  not  far  off 
when  the  average  farmer  will  have  his 
automobile,  or  will  be  interested  in  an 
automobile  with  his  neighbor  farmer, 
for  the  delivery  of  his  milk,  cream, 
butter  and  vegetables  to  the  city  every 
morning. 

With  the  construction  of  this  road, 
this  part  tif  Carlton  county  would  for 
the  first  time  be  put  in  direct  com- 
munication with  Duluth,  and.  Inside  of 
one  year  from  the  completion  of  this 
road,  land  would  be  selling  for  over 
double  its   present  value. 

In  my  estimation — and  I  am  backed 
by  some  of  the  principal  business  men 
of  Duluth — the  construction  of  this 
road,  lessening  the  distance  some 
twenty-eight    miles    between    here    and

."^t.  I'iuil,  and  opening  up  this  new 
country  witii  Its  wealth  of  beautiful 
tctiury,  will  mean  more  to  Duluth  in 
dollars  and  cents  than  if  we  were  to 
have  more  new  railroads  enter  our 
city. 

A  road  is  only  a.s  good  as  its  worst 
hole  or  steepest  hill;  and  the  |30,000 
that  it  v.ill  cost  to  build  a  bridge 
across  the  St.  Louis  river  at  Fond  uu 
Lac,  and  open  up  a  good  road  from 
there  to  Wrenshall,  will  be  paid  back 
ten  times  and  over  every  year  after  it 
is  opened.  This  same  road  is  to  be 
extended  to  the  ranges,  opening  up 
thai  wonderful  iron  country  to  the 
eyes   of  the   tourist. 

There  is  and  has  been  a  lot  of  talk 
about  the  great  expensu  connected 
with  the  constiuction  of  such  a  road, 
but  we  find  that  it  would  be  much 
cheaper  to  open  up  this  road  than  it 
would  any  other  road  out  of  Duluth. 
Of  course  a  bridge  costing  $liM),(iOO 
could  be  built  across  the  St.  Louis 
river,  but  we  can  see  no  necessity  for 
expending  more  than  $15,000  or  $16,000 
at  the  most:  and  the  road  from  there 
on  goes  through  a  country  that  is 
perfectly  adapted  for  road  construc- 
tion. 

The  Tourists. 
Again,  one  of  the  great  needs  of 
Duluth  is  the  bringing  of  tourists  to 
our  city  and  surrounding  country:  for 
the  time  has  come  when  we  must 
recognize  the  tourist  as  a  potent  factor 
in  the  business  world,  as  more  money 
is  being  spent  today  on  vacation  trips 
and  pleasure  jaunts  than  ever  before 
in  the  history  of  the  world.  Our  ho- 
tels and  railways  have  noticed  the 
falling  off  in  business  during  the  sum- 
mer season  since  the  automobile  came 
in  vogue.  Instead  of  our  wealthier 
elassfs  enjoying  the  beautiful  lake 
trips  as  tliey  did  in  the  past,  they 
are  now  taking  their  automobiles  and 
travfling  In  the  West,  East  and  South, 
because  of  the  good  roads  existing 
there.  Summer  resorts  and  hotels  are 
flourisliing  In  other  parts  of  the  coun- 
try, while  we  are  practically  Isolated 
as    far    as    tourists    are    concerned. 

I  am  positive  that  If  this  road  is 
started  In  the  early  spring  and  com- 
pleted in  the  course  of  two  or  three 
months  (which  can  be  done)  Duluth 
will  see  at  least  1,000  touring  automo- 
biles durin.g  the  summer  season.  J 
will  1<  ave  it  to  any  automobile  party 
to  say  If  they  can  go  to  St.  Paul  or 
any  other  city  and  remain  two  or 
three  days  without  spending  at  least 
$100.  One  can  readily  see  what  this 
alone  would  mean  to  our  hotels  and 
business  houses.  It  would  mean  the 
bringing  to  Duluth,  to  say  nothing 
of  what  would  be  spent  on  the  way 
up,  from  tivo  to  thr.e  hundred  thou- 
sand dollars  cash  in  a  season,  which 
would  be  left  with  our  hotels,  business 
houses    and    places    of    amusement. 

Duluth  could  then  build  and  boast 
of  a  summer  hotel  and  it  would  have 
patronage  to  draw  from.  Not  onlv 
boast  of  a  summer  hotel,  but  we  would 
be  more  likely  to  keep  our  wealthy 
classes  at  home  during  the  winter 
months  If  they  were  provided  a  road 
by  v.-hlch  they  could  get  !n  and  out  of 
the    city    with    their   machines. 

I  speak  of  the  automobile  because  I 
am  interested  in  an  automobile  and 
as  president  of  the  Duluth  Automobile 
club  it  is  one  of  my  ambitions  to 
have    tills    road    put    through.    I     will 


venture  to  say  that  there  are  100,000 
acres  of  land  around  Duluth  being  im- 
proved today  whicHi  would  have  been 
left  in  its  wild  state  were  it  not  for 
the  automobile  as  an  easy  means  for 
a  business  man  getting  to  and  from 
his   farm,   whicli   he   has   as  a   hobby. 

We  have  already  planned  for  two 
automobile  runs  to  Duluth  and  the 
ranges  during  the  coming  year,  which 
will  be  a  big  advertisement  for  this 
part  of  the  state.  While  touring  in 
the  southern  part  of  the  state,  I  have 
frequently  inquired  as  to  the  condi- 
tion of  the  roads  to  Duluth,  and  invari- 
ably I  have  been  told  that  they  were 
impassable  and  advised  not  to  under- 
take the  trip.  So  we  cannot  expect  to 
derive  any  benefits  from  the  touring 
public  of  this  country  until  we  open  up 
a  desirable  way  for  them  to  come  to 
our  city. 

It  seems  to  me  that  it  is  very  late 
for  us  to  be  working  on  a  proposition 
that  is  so  needful.  Why  this  road 
has  not  been  opened  up  and  completed 
during  the  past  twenty-five  years  is  a 
matter  almost  beyond  belief.  The 
magnificent  scenery  should  attract 
every  auto  owner  in  the  country,  to 
say  nothing  of  tourists  from  foreign 
countries.

was  pummeled  unmercifully,  but  his 
rugged  physique  enabled  hifn  to  with- 
staihi  the  punching  until  his  opponents 
weakened.  Then  Jeffries  waded  in  and 
stopped    them. 

Palzer  may  do  the  same  thing.  He 
has  not  gone  over  the  twenty-round 
route  yet.  and  it  is  more  than  possible 
his  blows  will  have  telling  effect  on 
Mccarty  about  the  fifteenth  round,  if 
the  contest  continues  that  long.  If 
Mccarty  weakens  by  that  time,  the 
chances  are  more  than  bright  that 
I'alzer  will  stop  him  before  the  final 
gong  is  sounded:  If  McCarty's  strength 
lasts  beyond  the  fifteenth  session  he 
will  be  favored,  for  he  Is  faster  than 
I'alzer  and  has  a  wider  knov.ledge  of 
the  game.  He  will  be  handicapped  in 
putting  into  execution  his  skill  as  Pal- 
zer's  reach  is  five  and  one-half  Ineh.js 
longer,  and  that  makes  a  diff.r.noe 
when  the  opposing  boxer  is  not  Itur- 
dened  with  science.  McCarty,  althougrh 
confident  that  he  will  whip  Palzer, 
probably  will  find  that  the  task  Is 
not    as    simple    as    he    thought. 

Palzer  Is  not  saying  much.  He  Is  al- 
lowing the  scouts  to  come  to  his  camp 
and  pass  judgment  on  him.  He  does 
not  care  to  sing  his  own  praise.  His 
mood,  apparently.  Is  the  correct  one, 
as  the  enthusiasts  on  tho  coast  have 
watched  both  men  and  have  selected 
Palzer  to  win.  They  are  making  him  a 
slight  favorite.  They  believe  it  will 
take  a  sledge  hammer  blow  to  knock 
him  down.  McCarty  Is  liked  there,  but 
the  fans  have  not  enthused  so  much 
over  him,  as  he  has  not  displayed  the 
aggressiveness  and  determination  to 
battle.  They  .say  the  reason  he

ter carried  the  ftii»t  to  him  at  all

At  the  present  time  it  is  almost  im- 
possible for  anyone  living  In  that  vi- 
cinity to  farm  and  market  his  prod- 
ucts to  the  best  advantage. 

With  the  co-operation,  as  we  have, 
of  the  Commercial  clubs,  the  Rotary 
club  and  the  range  people,  together 
with  the  Duluth  hotels  and  business 
men,  it  appears  to  me  that  there  is  no 
obstacle  that  cannot  be  overcome  and 
that  this  road  must  be  opened  up  this 
coming  summer. 

Other  Staten   Busy. 

New  York  state  has  just  finished 
building  4,000  miles  of  road  at  a  cost 
of  $.00,000,000  and  has  inst  votf-d  an- 
other bond  issue  of  $50,000,000  for 
roads. 

Two  years  ago  California  voted  $18.- 
000.000  worth  of  bonds  for  roads  to  at- 
tract the  tourists  and  that  will  not 
half  complete  this  scheme  of  road  con- 
struction. North  T.nklma  and  Spokane 
are  spending  millions  blasiing  roads 
through  the  Rocky  mountains,  to  let 
the  tourists  through,  and  the  .same 
holds  good  in  Denver  in  fact  all  over 
the   country. 

Inside  of  three  years  Wisconsin  Is 
to  have  a  trunk  highway  from  Supe- 
rior south  to  Madison  and  Milwaukee. 
The  state  of  Minnesota  is  now  building 
roads  in  the  western  and  southern  part 
of  the  stat*^  and  stands  ready  to  pay 
one-half  of  the  expense  to  build  any 
road  we  want.  All  that  is  left  for  us 
to  do  now  Is  to  get  In  touch  with 
Carlton  and  Pine  counties  and  work 
together,  St,  Paul  started  to  build  to- 
wards Duluth  last  summer  and  has 
completed  about  thirty  miles  of  good 
roads.  Tsantl  county  is  ready  to  build 
Its  share,  so  It  behoves  us  to  get 
started  and  connect  up  from  this  end.

where  the.y ,  eighth  round  of  a  stltedtiled  10-round 
bout  at  Madison  Sq'uare  Garden  last 
night.  The  knockout  came  suddenly, 
Kearns  landed  a  hafd  left  to  tlie  ribs 
and  a  right  to  the  neok.  The  blows 
appeared  to  anger  the  Texas  fighter, 
and  he  immediately  rushed  and  in  a 
mix-up  brought  a  left  hook  up  under 
Kearns'  chin  and  followed  it  immedi- 
ately with  a  right  hook,  Kearns 
dropped  backward  Andt  was  counted 
out. 

Neither  fighter  showed  much  knowl- 
edge of  boxing.  Willard,  who  had  an 
advantage  of  half  a  foot  in  height, 
missed  many  swings.  Kearns  played 
mostly  for  the  body,  but  wasted  his 
blows  on  Willards  arms.  The  weights 
were    Willard   221    and   Kearns    190. 

Willard  scored  a  knockdown  in  the 
first  round  with  a  right  hook  to  the 
jaw,  but  Kearns  rose  immediately.  In 
the  fifth  both  men  were  tired.  Willard 
drew  blood  with  a  left  jab  to  Kearns' 
nose.  Kearns,  after  missing 
wild  swing,  floundered  to  tlie 
all    fours. 

Sheriff  Harburger  of  New  York 
county  attended  the  bout  in  his  official 
capacity  and  watclied  the  contest  close- 
ly, but  made  no  move  to  interfere. 
After  the  bout  he  said  he  had  seen  no 
reason     whatever    for    interference.

busy  handing  out  the  pasteboards. 

"Al  couldn't  possibly  be  in  better

way  McCarney  used  the  "hood"  while

Mccarty's  injury  real  or  alleged,  it 
has  no  effect  on  the  betting,  and  even 
money  still  holds  good. 

"Never   has   anything   like   this    been

sidering   the   possibility   of  opening   on 
one  side  of  the  arena  and  constructing 
an  additional  capacity.     The  architect? 
however,     discouraged     the     promoter's

students  of  the  boxing  game  here,  Mc- 
^^^t^'v.,  ,  making  his  statements, 
Piobably  does  not  realize  that  he  will 
have  a  tremendous  task  to  handle 
When  he  faces  his  opponent.  A.ccord- 
Jl^  to  his  remarks  he  seem.q  to  under- 
rate the  Iowa  farmer.  Probably  his 
unexpected  and  decisive  triumph  over 
I'lynn  has  given  him  the  idea  that  he 
Is  a  world  beater  and  that  he  is  now 
on  the  road  to  become  the  king  of  all 
heavyv.^eight  boxers. 

J^-.^^^J'i?"  *o  underrating  Palzers 
ability,  McCarty  apparently  does  not 
realize  he  is  meeting  the  biggest 
iieavyweight  the  game  has  had  since 
Jim  Jeffries  was  champion.  Palzer  is 
a  typical  heavyweight  fighter,  weigh- 
ing 21S  pounds  and  having  a  reach  of 
eighty-one  inches.  Had  he  been  in 
5l^*^v.^'?J''^^  ^''?"  Jeflfries,  Fitzslmmons, 
Corbett  and  Sliarkey  were  in  their 
prime,  he  undoubtedly  would  have 
made  a  deep  Impression  on  account  of 
his  size,  fight  followers  says.  Palzer 
probablv  would  not  have  been  able  to 
'^■oPe  with  the  men  mentioned,  for.  in 
addition  to  being  heavy,  they  were 
clever  and  strong  hitters.  Palzer  is 
not  clever,  but  he  has  Improved  many 
per    cent    since    Tom    O'Rourke.      who 

landled  Tom  Sharkey,  again  agreed  to 
to  look  after  his  interests  and  train 
nim. 

Palzer  will  outweigh  McCarty  bv 
ten  or  fifteen  pounds,  but  that  differ- 
ence in  weight  is  offset  by  the  Ne- 
braska man's  speed  and  cleverness 
The  former  Is  muih  like  Jeffries  was 
when  the  latter  first  entered  the 
game,  although  Jeffries  was  favored 
by  having  acted  as  sparring  partner 
to  Jim  Corbett.  Palzer,  judging  from 
his  recent  bouts,  will  improve,  and, 
according  to  O'Rourke,  will  be  cham- 
pion as  soon  as  he  learns  how  to  shift 

lis  weigl'.t  with  alacritv  and  increase 
his  skill  in  boxing.  He  Is  a  strong 
puncher  and  game.

McCarty  is  credited  with  a  stiff 
punch.  He  showed  that  he  was  thf 
possessor  of  one  when  he  knocked  out 
Flynn.  He  will  require  all  the  power 
he  can  muster  to  whip  the  huskv 
lowan.  The  latter  is  a  glutton  for 
punishment  and  he  probaly  will 
emulate  Jeffries  when  he  fought  Cor-

MILITIA  TEAMS 

READY  FOR  GAME 

i 

After  several  Aveeks  of  strenuoxss 
practice,  the  managers  of  the  Company 
A  and  Company  E  indoor  teams,  have 
definitely  decided  upon  their  respective 
lineups  for  the  game,  Tuesday,  Dec. 
31.  New  Year's  eve.  There  is  a  great 
deal  of  rivalry  existing  between  the 
teams  and  a  hot  contest  is  looked  for,  i 
as  the  fastest  ball  players  of  the  city  ' 
have  been  gathered  together  and  di- 
vided evenly  between  the  two  compa- 
nies. 

Manager  Baumgartner,  of  the  Com- 
pany E  team,  has  had  numerous  candi- 
dates to  choose  from,  and  has  picked  i 
a  bunch  that  he  says  will  be  able  to  ' 
hold  their  own  and  then  some,  when 
the  teams  clash.  He  expects  Harris, 
his  star  twirler,  to  prove  a  mystery,  to 
the  A  boys,  as  he  is  pftcliing  in  his  old 
time    form. 

With  the  added  additional  of  Ran- 
dall. Menelce.  Bennett  and  Sours  he 
has  a  strong  collection,  but  Company 
A  has  also  gathered  together  one  of 
the  fastest  teams  possible  at  the  Head

as  confident  of  being  able  to  take  the

JENNINGS'  WAYS 


New  York,  Dec.  27. — Certain  forms 
of  coaching  and  antics  on  the  base- 
ball field  were  deplored  by  Dean  Le 
Baron  R.  Briggs  of  Harvard,  In  his 
annual  address  today  as  president  of 
the  National  Colleg"iate  Athletic  as- 
gociation.  He  spoke  of  the  particular 
necessity  of  differentiating  between 
amateur  and  professional  baseball,  and 
continued: 

"There  Is  much  in  professional  base- 
ball as  played  by  the  kings  of  the 
game  that  we  don't  want  to  see  our 
students  Imitate.  We  should  not,  for 
instance,  want  to  see  them  imitate  Mr, 
Jennings  on  the  coaching  line,  al- 
though much  that  he  does  is  humor- 
ous and  accepted  ^  the  American 
public." 

Prof  William  Dudley  of  Vanderbilt 
university  was  to  have  delivered  an 
address  on  "The  Proper  Control  of 
Athletics,"  Because  of  Illness  he  was 
unable    to    be    present    and    his    paper 

was  read  to  the  delegates.  He  held.  In  a  message  to  the  sporting  editor 
among  other  things,  that  no  college  of  The  Herald  from  M,  E.  CanWJlon  of 
student  should  be  permitted  to  take  (  Minneapolis,  it  was  stated  that  the

session. 

n,^*'- .^^'i"^^"^^  ^^^^  of  the  difficulties 
that  had  to  be  overcome,  and  of  the 
many  radical  changes  that  were  made, 
all  of  which,  he  said,  proved  most  for- 
tunate For  several  years  back,  he 
said,  the  proper  adjustment  of  the  bal- 
ance between  offense  and  defense 
with  just  the  right  equilibrium  between 
these  forces,  has  been  a  serious  prob- 
lem. The  advantage,  he  contended,  had 
bec-n  on  the  side  of  the  defense,  and  it 
had  been  well  recognized  that  as  the 
goal  line  was  approached  the  defense 
became  stronger  through  the  drawing 
in  of  tne  backs  to  support  the  line,  so 
that  the  scoring  of  touchdov.ns  by 
equally  bala.nced  teams  was  exceeding- 
ly difficult.  For  these  reasons,  he 
said,  the  rules  were  changed  to  give 
four  downs  in  ten  yards  instead  of 
three,  a  change  which  he  character- 
ized as  the  most  important  and  bene- 
ficial Introduced  since  the  ten  yard 
rule  was  adopted. 

The  elimination  of  the  on-side  kick 
was  another  change  which  he  said  was 
most  Important  for  the  best  interests 
of  the  game,  and  was  made  because 
the  committee  felt  tliat  the  advantage 
of  the  attack  over  the  defense  might 
be  too  great;  because  of  the  decided 
danger  to  the  defen.'?lve  backs,  and  be- 
cause of  the  decided  element  of  ciianco 
and   luck   in    the  play. 

Riilen   AimuBt    Perfect. 
After    reciting    the    disadvantage    of 
annual    changes    In    the    rules,    both    to 
the  players  and   the  spectators  In   gen- 
eral.   Dr.    Williams      closed    his    report 
with    the    statement    that   "now    at   last 
we    seem    to    have   a    game    that    is    tho 
most     satisfactory,     popular       alike     to 
players,   spectators  and  coaches,   where 
the    balance    between      attack    and    de- 
fense is  nicely  adjusted;   where  a  team 
i  that  Is  properly  instructed  and  proper- 
:  ly  directed  upon  the  field  of  play,  ought 
always  to  be  able  to  score  unless  out- 
classed,  and    where   the   team   of   supe- 
1  rlor  ability  and  skill  almost  invariably 
I  wins." 

I  George  W.  Ehler,  director  of  phvsical 
;  education  at  the  University  of  Wiscon- 
■  sin,  rendering  a  report  on  "football 
;  fatalities  among  college  men,"  an- 
i  nounced  that  there  were  no  deaths 
I  among    college    men      last    season,    but 

that  a  schoolboy  was  killed. 
I  Dr.  J.  A.  Babbitt  of  Haverford,  re- 
I  ported  for  the  committee  on  soccer 
I  football  and  J.  A.  Roycroft  for  the 
basket  ball  rules  committee.  The  track 
I  rules  committee  of  which  A.  A.  Stagg 
I  of  Chicago  university  Is  chairman,  had 
no  important  changes  to  propose. 

Mr.  K^hler,  in  discussing  the  work  of 
the  committee  on  amateurism,  declared 
there  was  a  "twilight  zone,"  within 
which  the  application  of  the  law  is  not 
always  simple  or  clear. 

"The  trouble,"  he  said,  "does  not 
arise  so  much  out  of  the  difficulty  of 
determining  whether  an  actual  viola- 
tion of  the  letter  of  the  law  has  oc- 
curred, but  whether  there  has  been  a 
violation  of  the  spirit  of  the  rule.  That 
there  is  no  widespread  demand  for 
liberalizing  the  amateur  law.  is  the 
view  of  the  committee.  On  the  con- 
trary, several  events  seem  to  indicate 
a  tendency  to  uphold  the  present  stand- 
ards and  to  extend  the  benefits  of  co- 
operation to  that  end." 

Officers  Klected. 
Lieut.  H.  W.  Nelly  of  West  Point  was 
the  only  new  member  elected  to  the 
football  rules  committee.  The  nomi- 
nating committee  proposed  the  follow- 
ing ticket,  which  was  elected: 

President.  L.  B.  R.  Briggs.  Harvard; 
vice  president,  Prof.  T.  K  Moran  of 
Purdue;  secretary-treasurer,  Prof. 
Frank  W.  Nllson  of  Virginia  univer-

W.  G.  Manley.  University  of  Mississippi; 
Prof.  Hugo  Besdek,  University  of  Ar- 
kansas, and  Frank  Castleman,  Univer- 
sity  of  Colorado. 

The  new  track  rules  committee  is 
composed  of  F.  W.  Marvel  of  Brown;  W. 
A.  Lambeth  of  Virginia,  and  Frank 
Castleman   of  Colorado. 

The  basket  ball  rules  committee  is 
made  up  of  Dr.  James  Nalsmith  of  the 
University  of  Kansas,  originator  of  the 
game;  Dr.  Roycroft,  Princeton;  Ralph 
Morgan,  Pennsylvania;  Henry  A. 
Disher,  Columbia;  Oswald  Tower,  Dr. 
Louis  J.  Cooke.  Minnesota,  and  L.  W 
St.    John,    Ohio. 

The    executive   committee   decided    to 
hold   the  next  meeting  on  Dec  20,   1913 
The   place   was   not   selected. 


The  year  coming  to  a  close  has  been 
a  notable  one  from  the  viewpoint  of 
good  roads  enthusiasts  in  many  direc- 
tions. It  would  be  noteworthy  if  there 
were  nothing  else  to  record  than  the 
action  of  many  states  In  making  lib- 
eral roads  apjn  oprlatlons.  New  York 
tops  the  list  with  the  $50,000,000  bond 
issue,  added  to  its  previous  appropri- 
ation of  an  equal  amount.  Pennsvl- 
vania  follows  with  a  proposed  $50,- 
000,000  appropiiation  which  there  is 
assurance  will  be  favorably  acted  upon 
by  its  state  legislature.  In  California 
and  $18,000,000  bond  issue  Is  now  be- 
ing expended.  In  Maine  the  $2,000,000 
bond  issue  has  been  authorized,  to  be 
met  by  the  automobile  fees;  smaller 
appropriations  in  other  states  all  point 
to  a  vast  better-nent  in  road  conditions 
in  the  next  few  years.  The  defeat  of 
the  $50,000,000  bond  issue  in  Ohio  is 
the  only  discouraging  feature  of  the 
year,  and  even  this,  say  Ohio  good 
roads  advocates,  is  certain  to  be  re- 
considered  in    the   near  future. 

Of  the  many  (  onventions  held  during 
the  year,  two  are  especiallv  note- 
worthy. The  American  Road  congress 
at  Atlantic  City,  N.  j.,  brought  to- 
gether road  builders  and  road  users  in 
enthusiastic  co-operation.  Most  im- 
portant, however,  was  the  first  Fed- 
eral Aid  Good  Roads  convention,  called 
by  the  American  Automobile  associ- 
ation and  held  in  Washington  D.  C. 
in  January,  and  out  of  which  have  al- 
ready come  results  far-reaching  and 
wh!ch  give  promise  of  greater  things 
at     no    distant     day. 

,  7^^  Federal  .\id  convention  formu- 
lated the  proposal  for  the  appointment 
of  a  congressioral  committee  to  inves- 
tigate and  report  upon  the  whole  sub- 
ject of  Federal  participation  in  high- 
•way  construction.  The  resolution  pVo- 
vlding  for  such  a  commission  was 
adopted  by  congres.q,  the  commission 
was  appointed  and  is  now  at  work. 
The  Federal  aid  sentiment,  alreadv 
strong  In  congress,  found  further  ex- 
pression In  the  appropriation  of  $500,- 
000  for  the  Improvement  of  rural  post 
road.s  and  the  good  roads  enthusiasm 
stimulated    and    crystallized    by    the    A. 

\,  u-  '^"^*^  ^^^  aj?iicultural,  "business 
and  highway  associations  co-operating 
has  spread  throughout  the  United 
States,  so  that  the  beginning  of  1913 
finds  the  Federal  aid  question  to  be 
not  one  of  wh-ther  the  government 
should  spend  national  funds  upon 
roads,  but  as  to  the  form  which  such 
appropriations  should  take. 

•^^  this  point  another  noteworthv 
event  of  the  yea-  was  the  action  of  the 
A.  A.  A.  at  its  arinual  meeting  in  plac- 
ing Itself  squarely  on  record  as  fav- 
ormg  the  construction  of  a  system  of 
national  roads,  and  opposed  to  the 
scattering  and  piecemeal  distribution 
of  government  funds  for  purely  local 
highways,  which  work  properly  de-

will  have  before  it  a  volume  of  infor- 
mation on  the  subject  of  good  roads 
never  before  available,  and  which  will 
be  of  vast  service  in  formulating  a 
policy   of   Federal    aid.  ** 

The  second  Federal  Aid  convention, 
to  be  held  in  Washington  simultan- 
eously w^th  the  beginning  of  the  new 
congress,  will  bring  the  organized  mo- 
torists, the  farmers,  and  the  business 
men  who  will  be  represented  there  Into 
closer  co-operation  with  congress 
this  matter,  and  undoubtedly  will 
suit  In  speedy  ac  Ion  along  Federal 
lines.  This  belief  that  1913  will 
the  beginning  of  a  new  national 
policy  IS  strengthened  bv  the  faet  that 
the  new  pr-esident  of  the  United  States 
has  placed  himiself  convincingly

Frenclimen  who  have  invented  a  num- 
ber of  new  musical  instruments,  and  a 
great  number  of  new  and  funny  stunts 
to  perform  on  them.  They  offer  an 
act  that  is  said  to  have  some  musical 
value,  but  to  be  also  well  worth  while 
from  a  comedy  standpoint  alone.  Their 
star  Invention  is  an  instrument  they 
call  a  clacaphone.  which  is  described 
as  an   organ  with   a  iiuman   voice. 

The  vaudeville  team  of  Howard  and 
North  win  be  well  remembered  from 
the  two  sketches  "Those  Were  the  Hap- 
py Days"  and  "Back  to  Wellington." 
After  being  associated  for  many  years, 
the  two  partners  finally  decided  to 
separate,  and  each  member  of  the  team 
took  one  of  the  sketches.  'Those  Were 
the  Happy  Days'  fell  to  the  lot  of  Mr. 
Howard,  and  to  play  the  other  role 
Bert  Snow  was  engaged.  When  How- 
ard and  Nortli  visited  Duluth  last  sea- 
son they  presented  "Back  to  Welling- 
ton" and  the  older  and  better  known 
sketch  has  never  been  seen  In  Duluth. 
It  will  be  presented  next  week  by  Mr. 
Howard  and  his  new  assistant,  and 
promises  to  be  one  of  tho  big  comedy 
hits   of  the   bill. 

"Tiiree  FoqIs  and  Five  Chair.'?"  Is  the 
odd  billing  given  the  La ,  Maze  Trio. 
These  three  men  are  eccentric  come- 
dians and  acrobats  who  have  just  re- 
turned to  this  country  after  a  com- 
plete   tour   of   the   world. 

Lockhart  and  Leddy.  who  will  offer 
the  seventh  act  on  the  bill,  are  also 
acrobats,  but  their  act  Is  of  an  entirely 
different  type  from  that  of  the  La 
Maze    trio. 

The  daylight  pictures  of  world  events 
and  the  "concert  by  the  Orpheum  or- 
chestra, will  complete  the  New  Year's 
week  bill,  which  will  continue  all  week 
%vith  a  daily  matinee.

Thomas  A.  Wise  has  made  a  tabloid 
version  of  his  and  Cecil  Rhodes'  com- 
edy. "A  Gentleman  From  Mississippi." 
which  he  will  play  over  the  Orpheum

tion was  undoubtedly  the  genial  repre- 
sentative    from     the    Southern    state.

incidents  have  been  retained — Mr.  Wise

it    to    their   advantage    to    communicate 


The  management  of  the  Fmpress  has 
arrangcil  for  anotlier  exceptionally  fine 

picture  T>rogram  for  New^  Year's  week. 
The  pictures  shown  during  the  past 
week  have  proven  a  source  of  delight 
to  those  who  have  visited  the  Kmpress 
and  those  which  will  be  shown  during 
the  week  commencing  Sunday,  prom- 
ise to  be  equally  as  pleasing.  The  Km- 
iiress  exhibits  absolutely  first-run  li- 
censed films,  and  consequently  has  the 
pick  of  the  tlnesl  subjects  produced 
by  the  leading  photoplay  companies  of 
the  world.  No  matter  where  one  might 
witnes.s  a  motion  pictuie  performance, 
it  would  bo  impossible  to  see  better 
productions,  it  is  claimed,  as  the  Km- 
press gets  the  same  releases  as  the 
Largest  motion  picture  theaters  in  the 
country. 

For  the  first  part  of  the  week,  com- 
mencing Sunday  and  running  through 
Tuesday  evening,  the  program  will  in- 
clude "The  God  Within,"  a  powerful 
dramatic  release,  full  of  gripping  and 
interesting  situations,  presented  in  ex- 
cellent manner  by  the  Biograph  com- 
Ijany.  The  following  Is  a  short 
sj  nopsis  of  this  release:  "When  the 
woman  was  desolate  and  alone,  slie 
listened  lo  the  god  within  and  regener- 
ation came  through  the  niotlierless 
baby  given  in  place  of  the  little  life- 
less form  she  had  called  her  own.  Then 
the  father  of  this  child  thought  of  the 
associations  stirrounding  his  baby.  The 
otlier  man  was  av*akened  by  the  god 
within,  but  seeking  the  woman  he 
found  her  at  the  father's  fireside,  sing- 
ing the  eternal  lullaby,  controlled  In 
full  by  the  god  within."  The  Vita- 
graph  feature  for  this  change  will  be 
the  split-reel,  "It  All  Came  Out  in  the 
Wash"  and  'Ida's  Christmas."  In  the 
first  the  scion  of  a  wealthy  family 
finds  his  diamond  stud  and  his  ideal 
in  tho  wasli.  Her  father  Is  proprietor 
of  a  laundry  where  his  daughter  meets 
her  future  husband.  It  is  all  accom- 
plished in  a  screamingly  funny  manner 
and  affords  many  a  good  laugh.  "Ida's 
Christmas"  is  a  Christmas  story  full  of 
real  Yuletide  spirit,  and  while  more  or 
less  pathetic,  it  has  a  happy  ending. 
"The  Bear  Trap,"  an  interesting  story, 
presented  by  the  Pathe  company,  will 
be  another  feature  of  this  change.  A 
party  of  hunters  lay  a  trap  for  a  bear 
which  has  been  seen  roaming  about 
the  neighborhood.  The  trap  consists 
of  a  deep  hole  dug  in  the  ground  and 
covered  with  loose  branches  and  leaves. 
The  wife  of  one  of  the  trappers  falls 
into  the  trap  and  shortly  afterwards 
tho  bear  meets  with  the  same  fate.  At 
the  risk  of  his  life,  an  Indian  named 
Deer  Foot  rescues  her  and  takes  her 
to  her  home.  Deer  Foot's  squaw  mlar 
taking  the  brave's  solicitude  for  gen- 
uine affection  attempts  to  kill  the  wom- 
an. Matters  are  explained  to  the  squaw 
and  the  hunter,  returning  home  re- 
wards the  Indian.  As  usual  the  Pathe 
Weekly  will  be  shown  and  will  show 
scenes  from  the  annual  Army  and  Navy 
football  «ame:  the  burning  of  the  ad- 
ministration building  and  the  dormi- 
tories of  the  Maryland  Agricultural 
college:  a  review  of  the  bluejackets  and 
marines  from  visiting  battleships;  pic- 
tures of  the  Balkan  war,  and  several 
other   Interesting  current  events. 

Wednesday  and  Thursday's  program 
will  Include  "I.,ove  Through  a  I..ens," 
••Two  Men  and  Two  Women,"  '•The 
Bravery  of  Dora"  and  Balka.i  war 
scenes.  "Two  Men  and  Two  Women  " 
is  a  highly  interesting  Vitagraph  fea- 
tuie  and  telle  of  an  adventuress  who 
captivates  one  man  and  tries  to  en- 
snare another.  The  first  one  endeav- 
ors to  compromise  his  supposed  rival 
and  makes  love  to  his  wife.  .SI;e  re- 
sents his  advances  and  learns  that  hor 
hu:--band  is  under  the  spell  of  a  "vam- 
pire." The  wife  accuses  him  of  weak- 
ness and  warns  him  of  his  danger. 
She  proves  it  and  a  separation  seems 
inevitable,  but  they  are  reconciled  by 
their  little  daughter.  He  acknowled.ges 
his  indiscretion  and  all  Is  forgiven 
and  forgotten.  Miss  Edith  Story,  as 
the  adventuress  shows  powers  3be 
has  never  before  displayed  ag  an  act- 
ress. In  "The  Bravery  of  Dora,"  Dora 
Miller  and  her  father,  with  Juan,  a 
young  half-breed,  who  live  at  tlielr 
ranch  on  the  Rio  Grande,  are  seen. 
Juan  is  in  love  with  Dora  and  the  at- 
tachment is  mutual.  One  day  a  party 
of  United  States  cavalry  is  attacked  by 
the  Mexicans  and  take  refuge  in  tho 
Miller  home.  A  sharp  fight  ensues  and 


Juan  is  raptured  and  sentenced  to  be 
shot.  Dora  rescues  hlni  and  the  Mexi- 
cans are  about  to  execute  Dora's  fath- 
er. Juan  rides  to  the  fort  and  arrives 
with  a  troop  of  soldiers  just  in  time 
to  save  Miller's  life.  This  story  is  pre- 
sented in  a  realistic  manner  anu  is 
highly  exciting.  ••Love  Through  a 
Lens"  Is  a  highly  Interesting  story  pic- 
ture in  which  love  is  the  predominant 
feature.  Tom  discovers  his  sweetheart 
through  the  lenses  of  a  surveyors 
transit,  but  the  same  lens  almost 
proves  his  undoing  when  tho  girl's 
father  sees  her  and  Tom  approaching 
on  horseback,  but,  as  is  usually  the

sonal  risk,  (he  Clnes  company  has  ob- 
tained some  stirring  scenes  of  the 
Balkan  war  and  llils  reel  will  be  tho 
fourth  feature  at  the  Empress  for 
Wednesday   and   Thursday. 

French  naval  maneuvers,  "Sue  Simp- 
kin's     Ambition,"      "The   Mission    of   a 
Bullet"  and  "Theater  Wealth  "  will  con- 
stitute Friday  and  Saturday's  program. 
The  first  mentioned  was  taken  by  the 
Pathe  company  during  the  resent  ma- 
neuvers  of    the   French    fleet,   in   which 
the    efficiency    of    the    French    navy    is 
severel    tyested.     In    the    storm    which 
lasted    two    days,    the    battleships    and 
smaller    fighting    craft    went    through 
their   mimic    warfare,    successfully    de- 
fending    the     harbor       of       Cherbourg 
while    even    the    heaviest    of    the    war 
craft  were   tossed  about   like   chips   by 
the    giant    seas.      "Sue    Simpkln's    Am- 
bition"   promises    to     be    the    laugliing 
feature  of  the  week.   Like  many  others. 
Sue  wants  to  be  a  moving  picture  act- 
ress.    She    gets    a    chance,    tries    to    be 
emotional    and    makes    a    comedy    of    a 
tragedy.     She   hikes    it   back   home  And 
now    acts   as    leading    woman    for    Ezra 
Hawks    In    a    drama    in    which    the    tub 
and    washboard    plav    a    leading    part. 
"The  Mission  of  a  Bullet"  tells  of   two 
men.    chums   from    boyhood   who   go   to 
Alaska   in    search   of   gold.     Later   tiiey 
discover  that   both   love  the   same   girl; 
they    quarrel    and    fight    with    pistols. 
In    the   course    of   the   fight   one   of   the 
bullet    reveals   a   rich    vein    of   ore.   and 
truce  Is  declared.     But  both  remember 
the  girl  and  return  home  expecting   to 
win    lier    hand.     Upon    their    arrival    at 
the    village,   and   passing  a   church,   see 
the    girl    of    tlieir    dreams    entering    on 
the  arm  of  another  man.  to  be  married. 
Their      eternal      friendship      is      sealed. 
"Greater    Wealth"    is    a    powerful    dra- 
matic  release  with  a  worthy  moral.   It 
demonstrates  In  a  forceful  manner  tlial 
some    times    the    poor    man,    possessing 
the    love    of    his    wife    ana    children,    is 
even  more  fortunate  than  the  million- 
aire. 

As  usual  the  latest  song  hits  will  be 
rendered  between  reels  by  Those  Three 
Fellows,  who  have  become  so  popular 
during  their  stay  at  the  Empress.

pices of  L)uluth  council.  Knights  of 
Columbus,  for  the  benefit  of  St.  James 
orphanage. 

Mr.  ni?ara  is  the  recognized  leadinur 
ten<  I-  In  the  field  of  Irish  romantic 
comedy.  He  was  the  greatest  of  the 
Robin  Hoods  when  he  was  singing  in 
llglit  opera  and  was  headed  toward 
grand  opera,  when  he  turned  to  Vsliat 
he  found  the  more  congenial  field,  In 
whicli    lie    now    appears. 

"Thf^  Rose  of  Kildare,"  in  which  Mr. 
OHara  is  introduced  as  a  star  bv 
Augustus  PItou.  Jr..  is  from  the  join', 
pens  of  Eduard  Paulton,  the  adaptfr 
of  "Ermlnle"  and  "Little  Bov  Clue,"

j  them  to  the  rish  tenor  voice  of  the 
young  Irish  star.  Mr.  O'Hara's  voice 
rings  out  In  defiant  peals  in  the  stir- 
ring strains  of  "There  Is  Only  On" 
Ireland.  "  ripples  merrilv  in  "The  Lep- 
rah.aun'  and  "The  Rose  of  Kildare," 
and  in  the  softest,  most  luscious  of 
tones  breathes  the  love  themes  of  "Th. 
Sun  Dial"  and  "Pictures  In  the  Fire.  ' 
Mr.  O'Hara  sings  with  the  fire  and 
feeling  that  can  be  given  to  Irish 
music  only  by  an  artist  of  culture. 
Tall  and  tuneful,  he  makes  his  wav 
into  the  hearts  of  his  audiences,  and 
he  has  acted  and  sung  his  way  to 
the  top  of  the  stars  in  his  division  of 
the  drama. 

"The  Rose  of  Kildare"  has  been 
staged  by  Mr.  Pitou  with  elaborate 
attention  to  detail.  The  striking 
scenes  of  tlie  Wicklow  mountains  have 
been  faithfully  reproduced,  and  a 
scene  in  which  a  rocky  glen  is  shown 
with  a  cataract  plunging  ovi  r  a  ledg- 
at  the  back  of  the  stage  is  said  to  bc; 
a   wonderful   example  of  stage  setting. 

The  merit  of  the  production  makes 
members  of  the  Knights  of  Columbus 
hopeful  that  Mr.  O'Hara  will  be  given 
packed  houses  in  Duluth  and  that  a 
good  round  sum  will  be  realized  for 
the  cliarity.  Duluth  people  know  the 
worthiness  of  St.  James'  orphanage  for 
charitable  aid,  and  In  Mr.  O'Hara's  per- 
formance, they  will  have  full  return 
for  their  money. 

The  Knisrhfs  of  Columbus  have  Is- 
sued tickets  which  are  now  being  sold 
The  seat  sale  for  Mr.  OHara'g  six 
performances  will  open  at  the  Lyceum 
box  office  and  the  tickets  issued  by 
the  Knights  of  Columbus  may  be  ex- 
wen*  changed  for  any  of  ilic  last  four  per- 
fiticd     formances.

BRIDEGROOM^VANISHES. 

Goes    After    Marriage    License    But 
Fails  to  Return. 

Foley,  Minn.,  D«c.  '^S. — Though  the 
wedding  supper  had  been  prepared,  the 
guests  notified  and  the  attendants 
ready,  the  wedding  of  Miss  Tlllie 
I  lotjgh,  daughter  of  a  prominent  farm- 
er living  near  Rice  In  the  town  of 
Graham,  and  M'illlam  bosey,  who  for 
the  past  seven  months  has  been  em- 
ployeui  by  John  Gazette  of  Rioe,  did 
not  take  place  Christmas  evening.  The 
bridegrom  left  Saturday  for  Foley 
presumably  to  get  the  marriage  license 
and  arrange  for  the  ceremony.  His 
failure  to  return  by  Mon«lay  aroused 
some  excitement,  but  when  Christmas 
niorning  dawned  and  he  was  still  miss- 
ing the  parents  grew  anxious.  Tele- 
phone messages  revealed  the  fact  that 
he  had  not  been  at  Foley  and  an  ex- 
amination of  his  room  showed  that  he 
had  taken  most  of  hia  possessions 
with    him.

FINDS  ANCIENT  DAGGER. 

Sixteenth    Century    Weapon    Picked 
Up  Near  Little  Falls. 

Little  Falls,  Minn.,  Dec.  2S. — An 
o!d  dagger  which  was  found  in  the 
Mississippi  river  bed  below  the  paper 
mill  last  summer  by  a  son  of  Aleck 
Domisch  has  been  examined  under  a 
microscope  and  found  to  be  of  English 
make  and  the  product  of  a  sixteenth 
century    workman. 

The  microscope  reveals  an  Inscrip- 
tion showing  that  the  make  was 
"James  Westa,  Lord  street,  Sheffield, 
England. "  The  design  of  the  weapon 
shows  that  it  was  made  during  the 
sixteenth  century. 


erd  and  County  Commissioner  John  A 
Oberg  of  Deerwood  have  been  here 
relative  to  the  preliminary  survey  being

posed Experimental  Highway.

resentatives from  the  southern  part  of 
the  state  and  a  few  from  the  central 
district,  appeared  before  the  state  high- 
way commission  Friday  to  urge  their 
different  claims  for  the  fifty  miles  of 
experimental  road  toward  which  the 
Federal  government  will  contribute.  It 
was  explained  at  the  outset  that  the 
state  cannot  contribute  the  $20,000 
needed  to  make  the  offer  of  the  gov- 
ernment good,  but  that  half  of  that 
amount  will  have  to  be  paid  by  the 
counties  through  which  the  roads  are 
to  run.

Special  Church  Exercises  Are  Held 
During  Christmas  Week. 

Ironwood,  Mich.,  Dec.  28. —  (Special 
to  The  Herald.) — Special  Christmas 
services  were  held  In  all  the  local 
churches.  On  Tuesday  evening  a  very 
unique  service  was  held  at  the  First

day school.  The  service  opened  by  the 
congregation  singing  "Joy  to  the 
World,"  followed  by  prayer  by  the 
pastor.  Rev.  A.  E.  Ifealey.  The  choir 
then  rendered  "Hark.  Hark,  My  Soul," 
after  which  there  was  Scripture  read- 
ing by  EsUe  May-^T.  Vv'esterman  ren- 
dered "The  Little' -Village  of  Bethle- 
hem." The  exercises  were  then  turned 
over  to  the  classes  of  the  Sunday 
school.  The  principal  feature  this 
year  was  giving  In  place  of  receiving 
and  each  class  donated  something  In 
some  novel  way,  which,  was  distributed 
among  the  less  fortanate.  Almost  $100 
in  money  was  donated  and  a  couple 
of  large  tables  full  _  of  provisions,  In- 
cluding flour,  hania,  vegetables  and 
other  necessities  ot  Jtfe.  Every  one 
who  took  part  In  the  tlving  felt  that 
"it  was  more  blessed  to  give  than  to 
receive,"  and  many  homes  were  bright- 
ened for  the  holi(ia.y  season. 

On  Thursday  evetiing  the  choir  gave 
their  annual  "Little  Christmas"  con- 
cert, wiiich  was  a  success  in  every 
way.  A  large  and  enthusiastic  audience 
greeted  the  choir  and  male  chorus  of 
carol  singers  and  a  neat  sum  was 
realized   for  the   treasury   of   the  choir.

Milwaukeean     Finds     His 
Sacriligious  Act  Is  De- 
cidedly Expensive. 

Milwaukee,  Wis.,  Dec.  28. — Judge  N. 
B.  Neelen  In  district  court  yesterday 
fined  Martin  Premak,  aged  45,  $25  be- 
cause he  spat  on  a  Bible. 

Premak  was  brought  before  the 
court  by  Masse  Masszicka,  who  charged 
assault  and  battery.  Masszicka  said 
that  Premak  pushed  him  and  that  he 
did  not  mind  that;  he  was  angered 
over  another  insult  and  he  produced 
a  book   before  tlie  court. 

The  book  was  a  Bible  and  Mass- 
zicka   opened    it    In    court. 

"Your  honor,"  said  Masszicka,  "he 
spat  upon  this  book.  I  brought  it  with 
me 'from  the  old  countr.v.  This  man 
came  into  iny  house,  drunk  and  abus- 
ive, and  when  I  remonstrated  with  him 
and  told  him  what  this  book  commands 
us  to  do.  he  opened  It  as  it  lay  upon 
the  table   and    spat   upon   the   pages." 

"Did  yoa  do  that?"  Judge  Neelen 
asked   Premak. 

Th«-  niBJi  shrugged  his  shoulders. 
"Oil,  yes,"  he  said.  "I  did  do  that,  but 
it  harmed  no  one.  You  can  see  that 
Uc  wiped  it  dry  again.''

THINGS  THESE  GREAT  AND  WISE  MEN 
DID  NOT  KNOW. 

The  Inlianapolis  Xews.  in  defend- 
ing the  i>resent  system  of  "represen- 
tative" g  ..  criuueut  and  opposing  such 
innovations  as  direct  legislation,  says: 
"Our  moiieru  teachers  set  themselves 
up  against  Washington,  Madison, 
Franklin,  Hamilton  and  the  other 
great  and  wise  men  who  made  our 
Constitttti>n.  Tiiese  men  were  fa- 
miliar witii  all  the  great  experiments 
in  government.  They  knew  what  had 
been  atti  i.:nted  in  other  lands  and 
other  age.>." 

True  en.>ugh.  These  were  indeed 
wise  men  and  great.  They  were  in- 
deed fau'i'iar  with  "all  the  great  ex- 
periments in  government" — UP  TO 
THEIR  time: 

But  they  were  not  familiar  with  the 
greatest  experiment  in  government  in 
all  history — the  experiment  the  Amer- 
ican people  have  been  making  with 
the   Constitution    these    men   devised. 

We  of  today,  who  are  familiar  with 
this  greatest  experiment  in  free  gov- 
ernment, are  much  better  fitted  to 
judge  of  what  is  best  for  us  than  the 
wisest  a:;d  ureatest  of  those  who 
built  the  Republic. 

These  iuen  delil)erately,  as  the  News 
says,  "re[>udiated  the  idea  of  a  pure 
democracy,  and  chose  the  represen- 
tative form."  They  came  mighty 
near  choosing  something  a  great  deal 
less  deuiocratic  tlian  the  system  we 
now  have.  There  was  but  a  single 
voice  in  the  constitutional  convention 
in  fav.'r  of  the  direct  popular  elec- 
tion of  president,  and  many  wanted 
a  king.  Is  there  a  single  voice  today 
AGAIXST  the  direct  popular  election 
of  the  president  or  for  a  king?  They 
held  us  unfitted  to  elect  a  president, 
and  unfitted  to  elect  United  States 
senators.  You  see,  they  did  not 
know;  they  were  just  embarking  on 
an  experiment,  and  they  were  cau- 
tious— extremely    cautious — about    it. 

Representative  government  they 
chose,  and  representative  government 
is  what  the  people  still  choose.  But 
representative  government  as  these 
men  conceived  it  was  a  government 
so  remote  from  the  reach  of  the  peo- 
ple that  in  practice  it  ceased  to  be 
representative — of    the    people. 

Nobody  advocates  pure  democracy 
■ — ^just    yet.      Pure    democracy    would 


prohal>ly  do  away  with  law  making 
bodies  altogether,  and  submit  each 
issue  to  the  mass  of  the  voters.  No- 
body wants  that,  now.  But  every- 
body wants  assurance  that  represen- 
tative government  will  be  truly  rep- 
resentative, and  we  have  found  that 
that  can't  be  had  unless  the  govern- 
ment is  directly  responsible  to  the 
people  and  responsive  to  their  will. 
To  that  end.  it  is  proposed  to  give 
the  people  a  "gun  behind  the  door," 
as  Woodrow  Wilson  so  aptly  p'ut  it, 
in  the  form  of  the  initiative,  the  ref- 
crcndiun  and  the  recaH,  by  which  the 
people  at  all  times  can  make  sure  that 
their  government  is  going  to  be  truly 
representative. 

The  conviction  that  this  gun  be- 
hind the  door  is  needed  comes  out  of 
the  ripe  experience  of  a  great  people 
with  the  system  of  government  de- 
vised by  these  men,  with  no  idea  that 
it  was  intended  to  last  forever.  Jef- 
ferson thought  the  Constitution  ought 
to  be  brought  up  to  date  every  twen- 
ty years.  Ours  is  an  experience  which 
these  great  and  wise  men,  with  all 
their  knowdedge  about  older  attempts, 
completely  lacked. 


The  weather  must  be  credited  with 
almost  hiunan  understanding.  When- 
ever It  really  wants  to  get  talked 
about    it    makes    Itself    disagreeable. 


GUILTY! 

The  jury  at  Indianapolis  has  de- 
clared thirty-eight  of  the  forty  men 
tried  before  it  guilty  of  the  heinous 
charge  of  conspiring  to  destroy  prop- 
erty— and  incidentally  human  life — by 
the  use  of  dynamite. 

We  are  sorry  that  it  had  to  be  so 
many,  but  the  jurj-  heard  the  evidence, 
saw  the  men,  witnessed  their  de- 
meanor in  court  and  on  the  witness 
stand,  and  must  be  presumed  to  know 
best. 

The  public  business  of  throttling 
-such  methods  is  higher  than  the  per- 
sonal fate  of  these  thirty-eight  men. 

So  cowardly  and  so  deadl3'  is  the 
occupation  of  the  dynamiter  that  the 
strongest  possible  methods  must  be 
used  to  destroy  it.  Xo  cause  can 
prosper  by  such  practices  and  no 
country  can  be  safe  in  which  it  is 
safe  to  use  them. 

We  may  be  sorry  for  these  men, 
but  it  must  be  for  their  having  been 
so  misguided  as  to  engage  in  such 
terrible  enterprises — not  for  their 
having  been  caught  at  it  and  punished. 

Having  been  caught  at  it  and  con- 
victed, their  pm'iishment  should  be  in 
proportion  to  their  guilt. 


ure,  it  would  be  better  to  go  down 
to  defeat  with  it  and  let  those  who 
defeated  it  reckon  with  the  people, 
than  to  accept  a  compromise  that 
would  prove  unsatisfactorj'  and  in- 
adequate. 

As  The  Herald  has  said  before,  the 
wiser  thing  to  do  would  be  to  pass 
first  an  employers'  liability  law 
throwing  upon  industry  the  full  bur- 
den of  risk,  and  taking  away  the  cruel 
old  comtnon  law  rules  which  so 
abundantly  protect  the  employer 
against  the  danger  that  he  may  be 
compelled  to  do  justice  to  his  injured 
workmen. 

Employers  will  be  found  more 
ready  to  agree  to  adequate  compen- 
sation measures  with  such  a  law  in 
effect  than  thej'  will  be  while  they 
are  bulwarked  hy  the  hoary  injustices 
of  the  common  law. 


The  engagement  of  one  of  those  suf- 
fragists walking  to  Albany  is  already 
announced.  It's  possible  the  lady  de- 
spaired of  getting  the  vote  and  so 
decided   to  be   content  with   the   voter. 


Senator  La,  Follette  says  he  isn't  go- 
ing to  talk  politics  at  Minneapolis.  Fie, 
fie.  Bob:  One  of  the  first  lessons  in 
the  publicity  game  is  to  give  the  peo- 
ple   what    tliey    think    they    want. 


JUSTICE  FOR  THE  VICTIMS  OF  IN- 
DUSTRY. 

About  as  vitally  important  a  thing 
as  the  legislature  has  to  do  at  its 
coming  session  is  to  see  that  justice 
is  done  to  the  victims  of  industry 
through  proper  employers'  liability 
and  workingmcn's  compensation  laws. 

And  beyond  any  question  this  is 
going  to  be  the  hardest  thing  the  leg- 
islature   has   to   do. 

Nobody  questions  the  need  of  such 
laws.  Nobody  denies  that  it  will  be 
barbaric  cruelty  to  let  the  session  end 
without  passing  them. 

But  unless  the  legislature  is  very 
wise  and  cool  and  public  spirited  in 
its  deliberations  on  this  matter  that 
i^    precisely   what    will    happen. 

The  trouble  is  likely  to  be  that  the 
employes  will  ask  for  a  measure  too 
favorable  to  them,  and  that  the  em- 
ployers will  ask  for  a  measure  too 
favorable  to  them.  Neither  is  the 
right  kind  of  measure  to  pass.  The 
legislature  must  to  a  large  extent  shut 
its  ears  to  both  sides,  and  do  the  ex- 
actly right  thing  even  if,  for  the  mo- 
ment, it  fails  to  please  either  side. 
In  fact  if  a  measure  is  passed  that  is 
condemned  by  both  sides  it  must  not 
be  condemned  by  the  public  without 
investigation;  it  may  be  just  the 
measure  that  OUGHT  to  have  passed. 

The  legislature  should  remember 
that  it  represents  in  these  delibera- 
tions neither  the  employing  class  nor 
the  employed  class,  but  JUSTICE 
and  THE   PUBLIC   INTERESTS. 

Our  own  idea  of  it  is  that  the  leg- 
islature first  should  pass  a  humane 
employers'  liability  law,  placing  upon 
industry  the  FULL  BURDEN  of  the 
risk  of  employment,  and  doing  away 
with  the  doctrine  of  contributory  neg- 
ligence so  far  as  possible,  and  the 
doctrine  of  assumption  of  risk  and  the 
fellow  servant  rule  altogether.  Put 
the  full  burden  on  the  industry,  and 
the  industry  can  pass  it  on  to  the 
public  through  increased  charges; 
though  since  the  money  now  wasted 
in  court  expenses,  legal  fees,  claim 
departments,  etc.,  combined  with  the 
small  proportion  that  reaches  injured 
jvorkmen,  would  probably  provide 
adequate  compensation  for  every  ca^e, 
there  should  not  be  much  increase  to 
pass  on  to  the  public. 

Compensation  should  be  adequate 
and  automatic.  It  should  never  be 
necessary  for  an  injured  workman, 
or  the  family  of  a  workman  who  is 
killed,  to  pay  a  lawyer  or  court  ex- 
pense to  get  justice.  The  law  should 
provide    it. 

Friends  of  an  honest  and  sufficient 

workingmcn's        compensation        law 

j  should  be  careful  about  compromise. 

I  If  they  could  agree  on  an  ideal  mcas- 


SMASH  THAT  COMBINE ! 

Very  likely  publicity  has  destroyed 
whatever  chance  there  may  have  been 
that  the  proposed  senate  combination 
to  take  the  committee  appointments 
away  from  Lieutenant  Governor  Burn- 
quist  would  succeed. 

However,  the  people  of  Minnesota 
should  take  no  chances. 

They  should  see  to  it  that  the  com- 
bination is  smashed  before  the  session 
begins. 

For  beyond  any  question,  if  this 
combination  should  prevail  it  would 
mean  that  no  progressive  legislation 
would  be  adopted  at  this  session  of 
the  legislature. 

That,  whatever  pretenses  of  fair 
purpose  may  be  made  by  those  re- 
sponsible for  the  movement,  is  the 
inner  motive  of  the  scheme. 

Lieutenant  Governor  Burnquist  has 
pointed  out  that  he  was  elected  on 
his  promise  to  bring  about  a  pro- 
gressive organization  of  the  senate; 
that  he  now  stands  ready  to  keep  his 
pledge  to  the  people;  and  that  if  the 
senators  wish  to  prevent  his  doing  so, 
that  is  a  matter  that  lies  between  them 
and  the  people,  and  for  wdiich  they, 
not  he,  must  account  to  the  people. 

It's  going  to  be  pretty  hard  for  any 
senator  who  cherishes  the  good  will 
of  his  constituents  to  get  around  that 
statement,  for  it  is  true. 

Tlie  whole  situation  is  that  Mr. 
Burnquist  proposes  to  make  commit- 
tee appointments  in  the  interests  of 
the  people;  that  certain  senators  pro- 
pose to  prevent  his  doing  so  if  they 
can;  and  so  if  they  suceed,  or  go 
further  in  the  attempt,  these  senators 
will  have  a  lot  of  difficult  explaining 
to  their  constituents  to  do. 

As  we  have  said,  the  people  should 
take  no  chances.  Everywhere,  they 
should  let  their  senators  know  what 
they  think  of  this  kind  of  a  proceed- 
ing. Everywhere,  they  should  notify 
their  senators  that  they  embark  in 
this  Tory  enterprise  at  their  peril. 

If  this  is  done,  there  will  be  no 
senate  combine,  no  "committee  on 
committees"  in  reactionary  hands  to 
block  progressive  legislation  and  to 
balk  the  will  of  the  people. 


Mighty  nice  of  the  Good  Fellows  to 
act  the  way  they  did  at  Christmas 
time.  Sure!  But  did  you  ever  .stop 
to  think  wliat  the  world  would  be  like 
if  everybody  would  try  to  keep  that 
spirit    in    operation   the   year    round? 


MORE  GIVING  THAN  RECEIVING. 

The  Duluth  postoffice  did  the  big- 
gest business  in  its  history  this  Christ- 
mas season. 

It  sold  more  stamps  than  it  ever 
did,  and  that's  good  because  it  is  good 
business  for  the  postoffice  and  be- 
cause it  proves  again  that  Duluth  had 
the  greatest  Christmas  in  its  history. 

Incidentally,  the  postoffice  sent  out 
fourteen  hundred  sacks  of  mail,  and 
received  for  local  distribution  only 
nine  hundred  and  seventy-six. 

Obviouslj',  Duluth  found  it  more 
blessed  this  year  to  give  than  to  re- 
ceive. 


Why  not  have  a  rummage  sale  of 
Christmas  presents  tliat  were  not 
wanted? 


THE  MARCH  ON  ALBANY. 

We  admire  those  gallant  and  ven- 
turesome ladies  who  set  forth  the 
other  day  on  a  march  of  a  hundred 
and  forty-three  miles  from  New  York 
to  Albany,  to  present  to  the  governor 
their  request  for  a  fair  consideration 
of  the  question  of  woman  suffrage. 

We  glory  in  their  spunk. 

It  rained;  and  they  kept  on.  The 
mud  grew  deep  and  sticky;  and  they 
kept  on.  It  blew;  and  they  kept  on. 
A  heavy  snowfall  set  in;  and  they 
kept  on.  The  snowdrifts  grew  deep; 
and  they  kept  on.  They  are  still 
keeping  on;  and  soon  they  will  be 
there. 

And  they  have  had  a  good  time  on 
the  way,  and  we  are  glad  of  that. 
They  danced,  and  the  other  day  they 
coasted  down  hill  where  the  coasting 
was  good.  They  have  been  good 
natured  and  cheerful,  even  though 
weary  and  footsore. 

And  one  of  them  got  engaged  on 
the  w^ay,  proving — if  it  were  neces- 
sary— that  youth  and  beauty  and  ro- 
mance accompanied  them. 

Maybe  it  doesn't  prove  very  much. 
On  the  whole  we  should  think  that 
one    enterprise    like    this    v/ould    be 


enough,  and  that  more  might  become 
monotonous.     (Xrteinly  it  proves  how 
ardently   these  |tv»   women   desire    to 
vote;    and    manifcsUy    they    want    to; 
vote  ardently  enough   to  make  up  for; 
thousands    who   arft>  indifferent.  j 

However,  The  Herald  always  has 
refused  to  consider  as  very  important 
the  question  whut  Jiroportion  of  the 
women  wish  tcf-^iBW.  Opponents  of 
equal  suffrage  lay  great  stress  on  this 
point,  but  it  doesn't  deserve  it. 

The  fact  is  that  votes  for  women 
is  either  right  or  wrong.  We  think 
it  right.  But  if  it  is  wrong,  it  is  none 
the  less  wrong  if  every  woman  in  the 
land  wants  to  vote;  and  if  it  is  right 
it  is  none  the  less  right  if  only  a  few 
women  care  about  it. 

Anyway,  our  hat  is  off  to  that  gal- 
lant little  band  of  devoted  suffragists 
—they  call  themselves  "Suffragettes," 
but  they  do  themselves  less  than  jus- 
tice— and  we  hope  their  mission  will 
prove  successful.

TRAPPING  LAWS. 

To  the   Kdltor   of  The   Herald: 

Can  you  tell  me  If  a  person  can 
catch  mink  and  muskrats  and  other 
fur  In  traps  through  tlie  winter,  or  is 
it  again.st  the  law?  Please  publish  tlie

A  TRAPPER. 
Duluth,  Dec.  28,  1912. 


Mink  and  muskrats  may  be  trapped 
in  Minnesota  from  Nov.  15  to  April  15. 
The  law  states  that  muskrat  houses 
shall  not  be  molested  In  any  manner 
whatever.  It  Is  unlawful  to  trap,  take 
or  kill  beaver  at  any  time  or  to  molest 
or  destroy  any  beaver  dams.  No  re- 
strictions are  placed  upon  weasels, 
foxes,  bears  and  other  fur-bearing  ani- 
mals, but  the  skins  are  at  their  best 
only  in  the  cold  months. — The  Editor.

WHOA! 

Ten  years  ago  it  cost  the  state  of 
Minnesota  to  keep  house  for  a  year 
$4,051,177.16. 

This  year  it  has  cost  the  same  state 
$8,242,796.54 — more  than  twice  the 
housekeeping   expenses   of   1902, 

Doubling  up  the  state's  expenses  in 
ten  years  is  traveling  pretty  rapidly. 
It  ought  to  make  poeple  stop  and 
think.  True,  the  cost  of  living  has 
gone  up  in  that  time,  but  hardly  a 
hundred  per  cent. 

We  hope  the  state  has  had  its 
money's  worth  out  of  this  tremendous 
increase.  We  doubt  if  it  has.  If 
every  dollar  of  the  increase  has  given 
a  dollar's  worth  of  results  for  the 
people,  it's  all  right;  the  state  is  rich 
and  can  stand  it  if  it  is  getting  full 
results.  But  we  feel  compelled  to 
doubt  that,  too. 

The  state  tax  rate  the  past  year  or 
two  has  been  the  highest  in  its  his- 
tory. It  is  time  to  begin  thinking 
about  economy,  and  about  whether  all 
this  money  is  wisely  spent.  Economy 
doesn't  mean  niggardliness.  If  the 
increase  is  all  justified,  and  if  it  all 
brought  results,  no  harm  is  done.  But 
somebody  ought  to  look  into  it  and 
see  if  this  is  true.  The  legislature  is 
about  to  meet,  and  that  looks  like  a 
good  job  for  it  to  tjike  up  early  and 
give  considerable  thought  to. 


A  Louisiana  man.  Ignoring  a  warn- 
ing not  to  step  into  a  saloon,  was 
killed  (by  electricity)  as  he  put  his 
foot  on  the  threshold.  It  isn't  often 
that  the  warning  coiiies  true  as  quick- 
ly as  this,  but  it's  worth  while  for 
the  young  man  to  remember  that  it's 
prettj'  sure  to  come  true  sooner  or 
later. 


MAKE  GOOD. 

There  is  just  one  sure  way  to  get 
ahead:  make  good. 

There  is  just  one  sure  way  of  earn- 
ing promotion:  show  yourself  expert 
in  the  position  which  you  seek  to 
make  the  stepping  stone  to  a  higher 
one. 

There  is  just  one  sure  way  to  suc- 
ceed: do  your  level  best,  always,  in 
what  you  are  called  to  do. 

Some  people  succeed — apparentlj- — 
by  taking  short  cuts:  by  undermining 
through  treacherj'  those  above  them; 
by  staking  everything  on  a  gambling 
chance;  by  flattery;  by  cunning  and 
dishonesty.  They  are  soon  found 
out.  There  is  nothing  substantial  and 
lasting  in  their  success.  It  vanishes 
like  a  house  of  cards  at  the  first 
breath  of  truth. 

It  takes  patience  to  win  by  deserv- 
ing to  win,  but  it's  the  only  sure  way, 
the  only  honest  way,  the  only  self- 
satisfying  way. 

Whatever  you  are  called  to  do,  show 
that  you  are  capable  of  doing  higher 
things  by  doing  that  thing  better  than 
anybody  else. 

If  j'our  job  is  to  be  a  sandwich 
man,  to  parade  the  streets  with  ad- 
vertising placards  fore  and  aft,  be  a 
good  sandwich  man.  It  isn't  a  lofty 
occupation,  but  even  it  can  be  en- 
nobled by  faithfulness.  It  may  lead 
to  something  better  if  you  are  a  good 
sandwich  man,  or  to  something  worse 
if  you  are  a  bad  and  faithless  one. 

Make    good! 


If  Wocdrow  Wilson  doesn't  hurry 
up  and  choose  some  member  of  that 
cabinet  he'll  be  too  late  and  the  dope- 
sters  will  have  every  blamed  place 
filled. 


WORKINGMEN'S  COMPENSATION  AND 
LAWYERS. 

Some  people  have  become  excited 
about  what  automatic  vv-orkingmen's 
compensation  laws  will  do  to  the  law 
business. 

The  legal  profession  already  is  over- 
ciowded — though  never  at  the  top. 
Personal  injury  cases  are  a  large 
source  of  revenue — a  larger  source  of 
revenue  to  the  lawj-ers,  the  courts, 
and  legal  hangers^'On  than  to  injured 
workingmen.  Make  this  compensa- 
tion automatic  by  law%  and  the  per- 
sonal injury  law  business  will  cease. 

Probably  this  WILL  curtail  the 
earnings   of  the  legal  profession. 

But    it   must   come,    nevertheless. 

Movements  for  better  public  health 
probably  curtail  the  earnings  of  the 
medical  business,  too.  Should  ihey, 
ther«fo:c,    be    abandoned? 




Nineteen  hundred  and  thirteen  will 
prove  an  unlucky  year  for  all  cowards, 
cheats,   sneaks,   idlers  and  wasters. 

If  you  neglect  your  responsibilities 
you'll    pay   the   penalty   of   inefficiency. 

If  you  squander  your  hours  and  your 
powers,  indulge  in  excesses,  deny  your 
body  sufficient  sleep,  exercise  and  care, 
youll  lose  your  strength  and  health. 

If  you  lie,  betray  trust  and  break 
your  word,  your  name  will  be  smirched 
with  disgrace. 

If  you  make  no  effort  to  improve 
your  position  or  broaden  your  mind,  a 
more  earnest  and  eager  and  deserving 
man  will  dispossess  you  from  your  job. 

But  1913  will  be  a  happy,  wonderful, 
treasure-laden,  prosperous  year  for  all 
who    strive    keenly    and    cleanly. 

Bad  luck  Is  a  matter  of  character — 
not  of  calendar.  Superstition  is  lu- 
dicrous by  the  light  of  electricity.  All 
the  wicked  spirits  are  in  the  grog 
shop.  The  evil  eye  is  watching  from 
the   front   row   at  the   musical  comedy. 

"Good"  and  "bad'  are  mental  atti- 
tudes. We  are  great  and  stalwai't  or 
puny  and  miserable  because  it  is  our 
will  to  be  so.  Our  souls  mould  our 
careers. 

We  live  in  the  biggest,  the  finest, 
the  most  charitable,  the  most  astound- 
ing of  ail  ages — a  world  of  dreams- 
come-true,  of  work-a-day  miracles. 

Doubt  is  dead;  bigotry  lias  fled;  in- 
tolerance is  writhing  under  the  heel  of 
education. 

There's  no  such  thing  as  caste  or 
breed — nobility  exists  only  in  service — 
power  is  the  sole  right  of  the  com- 
pttent. 

Man  can  accomplish  anything.  .  Hu- 
man beings,  ordinary  matter  of  fact, 
meat-and-bone  people,  constructed  this 
universe  out  of  a  wilderness. 

Brains  and  hands  and  valiant  hearts 
were  the  tools  with  which  they 
wrought  their  wonder-works. 

Failure  can  offer  no  excuse  to  thl-s 
splendid  hour.  Within  a  single  cen- 
tury we  have  created  railroad  systems, 
steamship  lines,  power  machinery,  sub- 
marines, aeroplane.s,  phonographs, 
moving  pictures,  telephones,  telegra- 
phy, artificial  illumination. 

Doesn't  the  gloYy  of  it  all  tingle  in 
your  veins?  • 

And  who  did  it — who  urged  ambi- 
tion onward  against  the  barriers  of 
incredulity  and  discouragement?  Who 
are  the  superb  adventurers  whose 
dauntless  imagination  whipped  them 
up  the   heights  of  possibility? 

They  were  simple  men. 

Watts  saw  the  engine  emerge  from 
the  steant  of  his  mother's  teakettle; 
Stephenson  incubated  the  locomotive 
in  a  laborer's  cottage;  Edison  learned 
wizardry  in  the  University  of  Hard 
Knocks;  Wilbur  Wright  sprouted 
wings  at  odd  intervals  between  bi- 
cycle repairs. 

And  now  just  when  we  are  patting 
ourselves  on  the  back,  praising  our 
prowess  and  about  to  conclude  that  the 
last  fairy  tales  had  come  true,  comes 
Carrel — Carrel  the  necromancer — and  a 
now   empire   for   conquest   is   disclosed. 

Where  shall  we  stop?  What  are  our 
limits?  How  far  dare  we  fling  our 
hopes?  How^  high  may  we  pile  our 
faith?  Pinch  yourself;  it's  true,  the 
maddest,  wildest  make-believe  trans- 
muted into  reality. 

Jules  Verne  was  never  so  grotesque; 
Munchausen,  Grand  Seneschal  of  Lies, 
in  his  most  masterly  moments  ^'ould 
have  blushed  to  claim  it;  Scheherazade 
drew  many  a  long  bow  in  the  course 
of  her  Thousand  and  One  Nights,  but 
none  so  unbelievable  as  the  trans- 
planting of  a  rabbit's  eyes  in  a  blind 
man's  socket  or  the  replacing  of  a 
sheep's  shin  in  a  shriveled  leg. 

We  never  did  know  who  or  what  we 
were. 

We're  merely  on  the  border  line  of 
information — knocking  at  the  outer 
gate  of  knowledge. 

For  centuries  we've  been  needlessly 
dying  by  droves,  and  all  the  while 
that  we  were  throwing  away  our  lives 
and  casting  broken  bodies  into  the 
junk  heap,  if  we  had  used  as  much 
common  sense  and  given  half  the 
thought  to  the  human  body  as  we  de- 
vote to  patching  worn  machinery,  a 
million  hours  of  pain  and  despair  and 
woe  and  anguish  would,  have  been 
avoided. 

In  ten  years  the  country  will  be 
over-run  with  surgical  Job  carpenters 
ready  to  transform  twisted,  bent  and 
malformed  beings  into  fine,  full-func- 
tioned stalwarts. 

We  won't  squander  time  and  money 
and  tears  and  fears  searching  a  cure 
for  consumption  while  there's  a  per- 
fectly competent  set  of  lungs  on  the 
butcher's  bench  which  can  be  substi- 
tuted in  an  hour  for  the  unsatisfactory 
equipment  that  nature  gave  us. 

This  is  not  levity — it  is  the  solemn- 
ef.t  and  most  astounding  fact  in  all  the 
marvel-ridden  years  since  time  dawned 
on  this  universe. 

But  no  matter  how  far  science  shall 
advance  there'll  never  be  anything  to 
take  the  place  of  a  BACK-BONE — you 
can't   get   that   from  somebody  else. 

Grit  is  a  personal   habit. 

The  whole  secret  of  progress  is 
summed  up  in  one  word — DETERMI- 
NATION.    Dare!   Dare!   Dare! 


Good   Cheer  nt   Meals. 

Ruskin:  Good  cheer  should  not  be 
reserve<l  for  the  banquet  board  alone. 
Every  family's  mealtime  should  have 
an  element  of  sacred  happiness  In  it. 
F:ating  with  moderation,  giving  food 
its  proper  value  by  taking  It  slowly, 
enjoying  the  freedom  of  conversation 
which  belongs  to  the  privacy  of  the 
home  should  make  this  hour  a  special 
time  when  the  best  of  personal  ex- 
periences are  brouRht  forth  for  mu- 
tual edification.  The  mealtime  should 
b(;  the  hour  when  care  and  pessimism 
should  lie  left  nt  the  outer  door,  par- 
ents aufl  'Children,  relatives  and  friends 
meeting  in  l:ai)r>'  communion. 


Minnesota  Opinions 


Comments  of  tta«   State 


Rule  That  Always  Worka. 

Sauk  Centre  Herald:  Servants  of  the 
state  occasionally  imagine  tlieraselves 
greater  than  the  state.  But  such  peo- 
ple come  to  grief  in  tiine;  the  rule 
never  failed  and  never  will. 


State  ExtnivaKauce. 

Preston  Times:  The  result  of  legl.s- 
latlva  extravagance  is  manifest  in  the 
state  being  compelled  to  borrow  huge 
sums  with  which  to  conduct  its  busi- 
ness. A  firm  or  corporation  playing 
ducks  and  drakes  with  its  finances,  as 
does  the  state,  would  quickly  go  into 
bankruptcy.  It  is  to  be  hoped  that  the 
coming  legislature  ¥'111  call  a  halt  and 
dole  out  the  people's  money  more  spar- 
ingly. This  would  Ije  progressiveness 
wortli  while. 


JunuHliaic  JUn. 

Litchfield  Indepencient:  In  one  of  his 
recent  speeches  or  epi.stles  James  J. 
Hill  says  that  "no  nation  can  long  ex- 
ist without  earnest  ('hristian  spirit  be- 
hind it."  Assuming  this  to  be  true, 
we  arise  to  remark  that  Jim  hauls 
coal  from  Dnluth  to  the  Twin  Cities 
for  70  cents  a  ton.  while  to  bring  it 
from  Duluth  to  Lit  hfleld  he  charges 
pretty  close  to  %1,  and  the  distance  Is 
not  much  greater.  This  doesn't  ap- 
pear to  the  unsophisticated  and  simple 
mind  aa  an  exhibition  of  "earnest 
Cliristian  spirit."  "Christian  spirit" 
should  include  fairness  of  treatment, 
and  the  railroad  traffic  schedules  of 
Minnesota,  including  Jim  Hill's  and  all 
other  roads,  are  not  fair  as  between 
the  residents  of  the  different  sections 
of  the  state.  Rank  discrimination  is 
practiced,  and  it  is  carried  out  to  such 
an  extent  that  one  r.art  of  the  state  is 
almost  impoverished  to  build  up  an- 
other. 


For  NoH-Partlsanshlp. 

Winnebago  Enterprise:  There  Is 
much  favorable  comment  on  the  prop- 
osition of  recommer. ding  to  the  legis- 
lature the  passing  of  a  bill  which  will 
place  the  county  offices  in  the  non- 
partisan c4as.s.  Thin  suits  us  exactly. 
We  believe  in  electing  the  most  com- 
petent men  to  fill  :he  county  offices, 
regardless  of  the  political  affiliations 
of  tile  candidates.  A  county  officer 
should  be  a  businens  man,  in  a  way. 
There  are  no  qualities  of  statesman- 
ship required  to  fill  a  county  office.  It 
requires  a  man  who  is  accurate,  and 
can  carry  out  the  routine  duties  of  his 
office  with  faithfulness  and  accuracy. 
To  think  that  merely  because  a  man 
is  affiliating  with  a  political  party 
holding  beliefs  opposite  to  your  own 
that  he  is  not  fit  to  fill  a  county  office 
i.s  childish  and  foolish.  Maybe  we  are 
backsliding,  but  ne^.-ertheless  we  now 
firmly  believe  that  tie  best  man  should 
be  elected  for  county  offices,  regard- 
less of  whether  he  is  a  Republican. 
Progressive,  Democrat,  Prohibitionist 
or  Socialist.

tion. Not  only  are  its  members  well 
qualified  by  study  jjnd  experience  for

abiding  sense  of  responsibility  to  the

of  taxation.  They  lave  shown  caution 
and  conservatism  throughout  in  a  task

New  York  World:  If  Mr.  Bryan 
should  become  a  m.>mber  of  Mr.  Wil- 
son's cabinet,  and — 

If  Champ  Clark  s'nould  find  that  his 
personal  resentmeni:  is  such  that  he 
can  have  no  political  or  social  rela- 
tions with  Mr.  Brya  1,  and — 

If  it  sliould  appear  that  Mr.  Clark's 
attitude  threatens  to  embarrass  the 
president — 

Then  the  "World  respectfully  sug- 
gests that  the  Democrats  of  the  house 
of  representatives  proceed  to  select  a 
speaker  who  can  work  in  harmony 
with  the  administra"ion. 

We  say  this  without  prejudice  to- 
ward Mr.  Clark,  foi  whom  the  World 
has  only  sentiments  of  friendship.  But 
Mr.  Clark's  individual  grievances  are 
much  less  Important  than  a  successful 
government  of  the  I'nited  States. 

Mr.  Clark  is  wairanted  in  holding 
Mr.  Bryan  responsible  for  his  defeat  In 
the  Baltimore  convention.  But  if  Mr. 
Clark  had  been  nominated  he  would 
have  been  beaten  at  the  polls,  and  the 
country  would  have  had  Theodore 
Roosevelt  for  president.  Mr.  Clark's 
candidacy  could  never  have  withstood 
such  a  campaign  against  boss  rule  as 
Mr.  Roosevelt  made  last  fall.  A  Dem- 
ocratic candidate  for  president  nom- 
inated by  the  Influence  of  Murphy  and 
Jim  Smith  and  Tom  Taggart  and  Jim 
Guffey  and  Roger  Svllivan  and  Thomas 
F.  Ryan  and  August  Belmont  would 
have  contested  witl  Mr.  Taft  for  the 
dubious    honor    of    finishing    third.      If 


Clark  for  the  nom- 
Bryan     saved    the 

I'rom  disaster  and

Wholesale  company,  left  today  with

•••Mrs.  H.  L.  Sisler,  accompanied  by 
Miss  Jennie  Krelwitz,  went  to  River 
Falls,  Wis.,  today  for  a  short  visit. 


Mr.  Bryan  beat  Mr 
inatlon.    then      Mr. 
Democratic    party 
the    country    from 
term. 

As  it  was,  Mr.  Wilson  polled  fewer 
votes  than  did  Mr.  l?ryan  in  1S96  or  in 
1900  or  in  1908.  Th«»  Democratic  party 
was  saved  only  because  It  had  a  can- 
didate whose  political  independence 
was  beyond  question,  whose  quarrel 
with  boss  governmeit  was  a  matter  of 
record  and  who.se  nomination  repre- 
sented the  undoubted  will  of  the  pro- 
gressive Democratic  elements.  In  such 
a  crisis  as  1912,  Champ  Clark  would 
have  been  another  iilton  B.  Parker. 

All  this  may  not  Sissuage  Mr.  Clark's 
disappointment,  but  facts  are  facts.  It 
is  practically  the  unanimous  opinion  of 
Democrats  that  Mr.  Clark  should  re- 
ceive the  consolation  of  another  term 
as  speaker.  In  the  circumstances  it  Is 
Mr.  Clark's  duty  r.o  meet  his  party 
half-way  and  suppress  all  evidence  of 
an  animosity  that  can  reflect  no  credit 
upon  himself  and  is  pregnant  with 
possibilities  of  Deini>cratic  discord. 

Mr.  Bryan  is  making  no  war  ur»on 
Mr.  Clark,  and  if  Mr.  Clark  is  deter- 
mined to  make  war  upon  Mr.  Bryan  he 
should  not  be  permitted  to  do  It  as 
speaker  of  the  house  of  representa- 
tives.

SATURDAY 
I       NIGHT  TALK 


The  Call  of  the  Scrap  Heap. 

Let  us  acknowledge  its  place  amonff 
the  useful  institutions.  Every  business 
concern  needs  one.  At  a  certain  great 
manufacturing  plant  one  sees  In  the 
yard  a  small  mountain  of  wheels, 
gearings,  fittings,  that  have  become 
worn  or  obsolete.  The  size  of  the  heap 
is  one  open  secret  of  the  success  of 
the  company.  Wliatever  has  lost  Its 
value  is  thrown  out. 

It  takes  some  courage  to  have  a 
scrap  heap.  We  are  surrounded  by  so 
many  things  tliat  seem  almost  too 
good  to  be  thrown  away.  Many  a 
manufacturer  has  held  on  to  old  ma- 
chines that  were  not  quite  used  up  till 
the  market  has  gotten  away  from  him 
Business  has  a  way  of  seeking  out  the 
man  equipped  to  produce  cloth  a  trifle 
better  or  2  mills  per  yard  cheaper  than 
his  competitors. 

The  old  is  not  always  the  better.  An 
American  firm  lately  started  an  ice 
plant  in  Smyrna.  A  fine  clear  ice  was 
manufactured  from  distilled  water  and 
sold  at  |5  per  ton.  But  the  company 
promptly  came  into  competition  with 
the  mountaineers  who  from  time  im- 
memorial had  hawked  snow  packed  In 
skins  through  the  streets  of  the  city. 
For  a  time  the  Turks  actually  pre- 
ferred this  uncleanly  product  though 
it  cost  four  times  as  much  as  the 
American  Ice. 

The  new  company  will  win  In  the 
end  and  the  animal  skins  will  give 
way  to  Icemen's  tongs  handling  the 
clear  cakes.  But  meanwhile  the  Amer- 
icans have  had  to  install  circular  saws 
to  cut  their  ice  Into  a  product  resem- 
bling snow  before  the  people  will  buy 
It.     So  hard  does  ancestral  habit  yield. 

There  is  a  conservatism  both  In 
business  and  in  religion  that  Is  simply 
stagnation.  Inertia  is  one  of  our  an- 
cient foes  in  all  fields  of  endeavor.  Be- 
cause of  laziness  or  fear  men  stand 
still  or  mark  time. 

Loyalty  to  the  past  need  not  blind 
us  to  its  obvious  limitations  and  blun- 
ders The  methods  of  our  forefathers 
were  good  for  their  times,  but  the 
times  have  changed.  Interpretations 
of  forms  of  expressiion  that  were  ade- 
quate for  the  years  past  do  not  fit  the 
enlarging  thought  of  today.  Life  Is  a 
progress. 

We  go  from   strength  to   strength. 
New  occasions   teach   new  duties 
Time   makes   ancient   good   uncouth. 
They  must  upward  still  and  onward 
Who  would  keep  abreast  of  truth. 

The  close  of  the  year  offers  sugges- 
tion and  opportunity  in  this  direction. 
Sundry  unprofitable  habits  of  body  and 
of  mind,  various  unworthy  purposes 
and  motives  should  be  left  behind  In 
the  old  year.  They  should  not  be  al- 
lowed to  cumber  191S  as  they  have 
cumbered  1912.  There  i«  a  more  state- 
ly mansion  of  thought  and  experience 
awaiting  each  of  us  if  we  will  take  It. 
The  old  outgrown  shell  may  well  be 
cast  as  rubbish  to  the  void. 

There  Is  a  rrofound  value  In  retro- 
spection, but  It  should  not  be  too  pro- 
longed. Mistakes  and  sins  should  be 
viewed  in  their  true  light,  branded 
with  their  real  names  and  then  be  for- 
gotten as  soon  as  may  be.  Retrospec- 
tion serves  Its  only  useful  purpose 
when  leading  to  genuine  repentance 
and   not  merely   to   imfruitfui   remorse. 

Every  discarded  machine  on  tho 
scrap  heap  is  a  precursor  of  something 
better.  Because  the  old  device  failed 
at  some  particular  point,  the  fr.ult  Is 
remedied  in  the  new  one.  That  pile  of 
rusty  junk  is  the  foundation  of  innu- 
merable and  beautiful  columns  of  vic- 
tory. 

It  Is  ore  of  the  great  consolations 
of  life  that  our  roost  miserable  failures 
may  prove  similarly  useful.  Ho.v  many 
of  us  are  indebted  not  only  to  hours  of 
success  and  mastery  but  to  painful 
ones  of  defeat  and  trial!  The  faith  of 
Tennyson  is  belnfi:  proved  the  world

Of  their  dead  selves  to  higher   things.

Tlie  Democrats  say  they,  too,  will 
es'abli.sli  a  national  headquarters  and 
Bet  up  a  publicity  annex.  It  is  the 
wise  Miin^  to  do.  The  other  day  ler- 
taiu  leadluK  Democrats  had  an  infor- 
mal n.nfcrence  and  discussed  the  mat- 
ter. Soisie  proposed  to  establish  a 
dail\  i\e\vspaper  at  tlie  national  capi- 
tal, but  that  did  not  meet  with  mujli 
favor;  others,  and  they  the  majority, 
advoi  ;ited  a  weekly,  after  the  order  oi 
Bryan's  ('ommonor.  But  no  ronciu- 
Fion  was  reached,  except  it  was  re- 
solved to  set  on  foot  a  thorough  can- 
vas of  the  Democrats  of  the  District  of 
Columbia  to  the  end  that  as  many  of 
tliem  as  could  be  induced  to  do  so  be- 
come subscribers  to  the  Baltimore  Sun, 
one  of  the  best  newspapers  in  America. 
a  sterling  and  able  Democrat,  that  ffets 
to  Washington  for  breakfast  every 
morning. 

That  scheme.  If  earnestly  and  per- 
Blstently  carried  out,  might  brinq:  the 
mandpat  organs  of  Washington  to 
mend  their  political  manners.  The 
Sun  is  a  better  newspaper  than  any 
Washington  paper,  and  Its  opinions 
upon  public  affairs  appeal  to  every 
true   Democrat. 

*      *       • 

Ono  thing  the  leaders  are  resolved 
on  and  that  is  that  the  people  shall  be 
Buppli,  d  with  some  Democratic  liter- 
atur.'  i.<.-:ued  from  the  national  cnpitaj, 
^vh.re  i.s  no  Democratic  newspaper. 
I>onn  Piatt  held  that  the  power  of 
the  press  is  not  lodged  in  the  great 
metropolitan  newspapers,  but  that  'the 
rural  roosters''  are  the  political  might 
of  (he  pre.=5s.  He  declared  that  vou 
niisht     bombard     a    congressman    iii    a 


great  metropolitan  dallv  and  he  cared 
little  about  It  as  it  did  him  little  dam- 
age, but  let  a  small  paragraph  of  ad- 
verse criticism  of  his  course  be  printed 
in  an  insignificant  weeklv  In  his  dis- 
trict and  It  would  fetch  him  every 
time.  And  Piatt  was  one  of  the 
shiewdost  observers,  as  well  as  one  of 
the  most  brilliant  journalists,  wl:o  ever 
wiote    l<=>tt.  rs    from    this    town. 

I  think  this  would  be  the  best  plan: 
Establisli  the  wet-kly.  after  the  order 
of  The  Commoner,  arid  call  it  The  Yeo- 
man—and that  is-  the  name  Brvan 
should  have  adopted — but  have  a  pub- 
I  licity  bureau  also  and  put  Tom  Pence 
at  the  liead  of  it,  to  supplv  the  rural 
press  with  stuff  from  the  capital. 
There  are  some  thousands  of  small 
Democratic  papers  in  the  Union,  and 
Ptrhaps  80  per  cent  of  them  would 
use  the  matter;  besides,  writers  might 
be  employed  whose  stuff  would  find 
hospitable  welcome  in  ambitious 
dailies  In  cities  with  100,000  inhabit- 
ants and  over. 

•  •       • 

Pence  is  a  trained  newspaper  man 
and  an  able  and  entertaining  writer, 
but  he  is  more — he  is  a  man  of  judg- 
ment, an  execujtive  of  force,  a  Demo- 
crat of  principle.  Why,  ere  he  was 
20,  yet  an  undergraduate  at  college, 
he  took  hold  of  a  hopelessly  demoral- 
ized l)aseball  club  and  won  the  pen- 
nant of  his  league.  A  man  who  can 
do  that  at  his  then  age  would  make  a 
veiy  good  king.  He  has  an  elastic 
mind,  is  perennially  in  good  humor,  is 
universally  popular  He  can  manage 
men   and   is  a   master  of   things. 

When  he  took  charge  of  the  pub- 
licity bureau  in  Washington  set  up  to 
promote  the  candidacy  of  Woodrow 
Wilson  for  the  nomination  of  the  Bal- 
timore convention,  many  thought  the 
enterprise  quixotic;  but  Pence  is  a 
nan  of  the  people.  He  feels  as  they 
feel.  Instinctively  he  knows  what 
they  think,  what  they  desire.  And 
while  ho  is  no  HazUtt.  he  ran  his  bu- 
reau better  than  a  more  Hazlitt  could 
have  run  It.  He  knew  what  to  select 
and  he  got  it  printed.  Nobody  will 
ever  know  v.hat  a  power  for  good  he 
was  to  the  cause,  and  at  Baltimore 
he  was  a  hand-and-a-half,  and  the 
Wilson  managers  can  testify  to  the 
wisdom  of  his  counsels  and  the  skill 
of    liis   tactics. 

*  *       « 

I.et  the  party  re-establish  the  bu- 
reau at  Washington  and,  if  ho  can  b'.^ 
secured,  put  Tom  Pence  at  the  head  of 
it,  and  he  will  do  more  to  make  the 
■U'llson  administration  successful  than 
any  dozen  rnen  In  congress  you  can 
name.  Both  the  Ileixtblicans  "and  the 
Bull  Moosers  will  have  publicity  bu- 
reaus, and  It  is  imperative  that  the 
liemo'^rats  establish  one  and  make  it

NOW  FOR  LIBRARIES 


Business  Men  and  Librarians  Umite  for  Practical  Re-

Bure.nu. » 

A  city  plan  exhibition  now  occupies 
several  large  rooms  in  the  Free  Public 
Library  building  of  Newark,  X.  J.  The 
rooms  were  made  ready,  the  articles 
classified  and  hung  and  about  two 
hundred  labels  printed  on  a  hand  press 
by  assistants  in  the  librarv.  This  ex- 
hibition contains  no  pictures  or  draw- 
ings of  civic  centers,  plazas,  parks, 
water  fronts  or  other  beauty  spots  for 
Newark  or  any  other  city.  Th'-  City 
Plan  Commission,  which  supplied  most 
of  the  material,  confined  itself  to  the 
study  of  such  homely  facts  as  may 
help  th"m  to  reach  wise  an.swers  to 
the  question,  "How  shall  we  make 
Newark   a  more   efficient  city?" 

Several  departments  of  the  city  gov- 
ernment at  the  library's  suggestion 
have  contributed  to  the  exhibit  and 
sent  material  to  Illustrate  their  own 
work  and  to  show  how  closelv  their 
several  activities  arc  allied  to  the  plan 
of  making  a  more  efficient  cltv.  All 
this  well  illustrates  the  relations"  whi.-li 
many  i-ublic  libraries  bear  to  the  cities 
by  which  they  are  maintained. 
•     *     * 

If  a  library  may  extend  Its  activities 
beyond  the  field  of  book  purchase,  book 
distribution,  then  it  Viecomes  at  once 
an  institution  particularly  well  fitted 
to  co-operate  with  anv  or  ali  of  the 
departments    of    its    citv. 

In  the  last  ten  years  the  modern 
American  free  public  librarv  has 
proved,  not  in  one  city  onlv  but  in  a 
score,  and  not  in  one  town  onlv  but  in 
hundred.^,  a  much  more  unique  insti- 
tution than  even  those  responsible  for 
its  development  anticlr'ated.  Time  and 
again  it  has  hapjiened  that  a  commun- 
ity, stirred  a  little  by  a  few  enthusi- 
asts, has  rather  languidly  voted  to  take 
upon  itself  the  burden  of  maintaining 
a  public  library.  Then  it  has  added  to 
Its  library  equipment  a  librarian  of 
enthusiasm,  skill  and  knowledge.  And 
then.  In  a  few  years,  the  town  discov- 
ered that  It  had  acquired  a  vigorous 
and  powerful  agency  for  the  promotion 
of  general   welfare. 

The  library's  administration  la  usual- 
ly without  any  partisan  feeling  what- 
ever. It  concerns  itself  with  govern- 
ment and  city  improvements,  health 
water  supply,  schools  and  scores  of 
other  things,  because  It  makes  it  its 
business  to  gather  on  these  subjects 
the  latest  and  best  information  the 
world  can  offer.  On  all  these  topics 
as  well  as  on  literature,  historv' 
science,  philosophy  and  the  fine  arts' 
it  furnishes  information  in  books  jour- 
nals and  pamphlets  through  schools 
police  and  fire  stations,  churches' 
stores,  the  pay  envelopes  of  workmen 
In    factories   *wid   many   other  asrencles 


The  public  library  of  a  great  city 
also  makes  of  its  building,  if  its  size 
and  character  permit,  an  educational 
and  even  a  civic  center.  The  Newark 
library  13  particularly  fortunate  in  that 
Its  building  is  larger  than  the  activi- 
ties of  the  library  proper  will  need  to 
use  m  all  its  parts  for  forty  or  fiftv 
years    to    come.  ■* 

During  the  past  ten  years,  in  rooms 
not  used  for  the  storage,  reading  or 
lending  of  books,  there  have  been  held 
thousands  of  meetings  attended  bv 
hundreds  of  thousands  of  persons  for 
eduf-ation,  public  welfare.  self-im- 
provement and  the  promotion  of  en- 
terprises beneficial  to  the  citv.  i„ 
these  same  rooms  and  halls  have  been 
held  scores  of  exhibitions.  The  use 
of  this  library  as  an  education  and 
CIVIC  center,  led  almost  inevitablv  to 
the  formation  of  a  museum  as.socia- 
tlon  which  for  the  present  houses  its 
property  and  gives  its  exhibits  in  the 
library    building. 

t.Ji'^'f  ^^^['f'^'K  library  building  is 
three-fourths  of  a  mile  from  the  citv 
center.  Close  to  the  center  in  a  rented 
room,  was  opened  ttvo  years  ago  a 
business  branch  which  includes  in  its 
equipment  maps,  atla-se.s.  directories 
of  cities,  commerce,  trades  and  pro- 
fessions: year  books  of  countries;  sta- 
tistics business  literature  of  all  kinds 
literature  pertaining  to  city  govern- 
ment.s.  reports  of  other  cities  all  in 
the  hope  that  such  material  thus 
placed  would  be  used  by  bwsiness  men 
and  their  employes.  The  resllt  of  the 
experinieni     has     been     very       satlstac- 

fv,7*l^  ^/"f^L  public  almost  always 
thinks  of  Its  library  in  ternii;  of  litera- 
ture and  rarel:-  in  terms  of  commerce 
and  industry.  But  the  time  is  rapklU 
approaching  when  the  publl<-  library 
ot  a  great  city,  while  not  losing  In 
effectiveness  in  the  academic  field  wil 
take  oyer  to  itself  either  direct  v  or 
through  eftMcient  co-operation,  much 
of  the  work  now  done  by  municipal 
libraries  and  by  special  libraries  like 
those  of  banks,  factories,  insuranci

eties, municipal  research  bureaus.'  etc

of  v.ork  somewhat  as  follows-  In  all 
the  business  districts  of  the  citv  it 
will  establish  branches.  Telephones 
and  special  mes.senger  service  will 
connect  all  the  branches

ILLr.STIlATKI)     .SOUTH     AXOIRK.'A.       By 
Boyce.       Illustrated.        Chicago:       Rand. 
&   Co. 

Mr.  Boyce  had  an  unusually  inter- 
esting trip  tlirough  South  America, 
and  he  observed  closely,  reports  faith- 
fully what  he  observed,  writes  inter- 
estingly and  Informlngly,  and  help- 
fully provides  half  a  thousand  good 
photographs  to  add  to  the  value  of  thu 
book. 

The  volume  is  of  large  value,  be- 
cause this  country  needs,  at  present, 
knowledge  of  .South  America  more 
than  it  needs  knowledge  of  any  other 
part  of  the  world.  Besides  Canada  and 
Mexico,  these  republics  are  our  near- 
est neighbors.  Theli  continent  is 
prqdiglously  rich  and  interesting.  Its 
trade  is  enormous,  and  will  be  vastly 
more  so.  From  a  business  viewpoint  it 
is  of  great  importance  that  this  coun- 
try study  South  America,  and  Mr. 
Boyce's  book  will  be  of  great  help  in 
that   study. 

How  little  known  these  countries  are 
to  Americans — they  are  better  known 
to  the  Germans  and  English — is  shown 
by  the  author's  confession:  "Before 
going  to  South  America  I  confess  that 
my  knowledge  of  that  collection  of 
republics,  as  with  most  busy  Ameri- 
cans, was  not  very  deep  or  accurate; 
besides,  having  read  for  the  most  part 
about  their  weakness  for  revolutions,  I 
was  not  Inclined  to  think  much  of 
them.  However,  after  over  40,000  miles 
of  travel  and  over  a  year  spent  in  ac- 
tively studying  all  parts  of  the  South 
American  continent,  I  returned  deeply 
Impressed  with  the  vastness  of  the  re- 
sources of  that  country  and  with 
grateful  and  pleasant  appreciation  of 
many  of  its  people." 

The  reader  of  this  volume  Is  certain 
to  catch  the  contagion  of  the  intere.st 
that  his  travels  developed  In  the 
autiior. 

The  matter  contained  In  It  was 
largely  published  in  the  .Saturday 
Blade,  Mr.  Boyc^-'s  interesting  and  en- 
terprising weekly,  for  wl.ich  an  Afri- 
can tour  has  already  been  made,  and  a 
tour  of  the  colonial  possessions  of  the 
L'nitcd  States  is  projected.

Mr.  Bobbins,  who  rivaled  Poe  In 
gruf-somenes-s  In  "Mysterious  Martin," 
issuod  last  winter,  has  done  better  in 
his  new  work.  "The  Spirit  of  the 
Town,"  is  a  symbolical  story,  in  which 
the  spirit  of  the  city  and  the  spirit  of 
trutli  are  personified  in  their  battle 
for  the  control  of  the  young  man  in 
the  city.  The  story  is  well  told  and  is 
intensely  impressive  in  its  lesson.  It  Is 
a  po%verful  sermon  in  fiction  form.  The 
ambitious  young  man,  the  thieves  the 
woman  of  the  streets,  the  dissolute 
club  man  and  the  little  anarchist  are 
types  found  in  every  city.  The  spirit 
of  the  city  and  the  spirit  of  truth  are 
engaged  everywhere  in  a  never-ending 
battle.  Some  are  captivated  by  the 
spirit  of  the  city  and  go  down  in  the 
mire.  Others  cultivate  the  spirit  of 
truth  and  mount  to  heights  that  can- 
not be  measured  by  monev.  The  author 
makes  good  use  of  a  great  subject.

THK    GUOWin    OF    FRKKDOM.     By   H.    W.    Nevln- 

sou.     Same  publishers,  same  price. 

Here  are  two  volumes  of  "The  Peo- 
ple's Books."  a  series  of  discussions 
of  various  solid  subjects  by  competent 
English  authors.  The  treatises  in 
these  tAvo  little  books  arc  inform- 
ing and  interesting,  and  each  is  writ- 
ten from  a  viewpoint  of  syrnpathv  with 
the  subject.  "Syndicalism,"  which  is 
a  proposition  to  have  the  unions  oper- 
ate industry,  each  for  its  own  benefit, 
and  this  desideratum  to  be  obtained 
by  violent  methods  if  necessary,  is  a 
false  philosophy  that  will  bear  -tvatch- 
Ing:  and  Mr.  Hartley's  approving  ex- 
position of  it  is  illuminating.  Mr. 
Nevlnson  traces  the  growth  of  free- 
dom, with  especial  reference  to  Brit- 
ish freedom,  and  with  singularlv  little 
reference   to   the   American   experiment

When  a  layman  handles  a  religious 
subject  one  naturally  looks  for  fresh- 
ness and  viewpoint  charms  that  gen- 
erally attach  to  the  unprofessional 
nnii  non-academfc.  Maj.  Byers.  who 
has  written  on  several  other  subjects 
handles  the  life  of  the  Savior  in  an 
interesting  yet  reverent  style  that 
will  appeal  to  lay  as  well  as  clerical 
readers.  It  is  essentially  a  human 
story  of  the  Master  from  a  new  view- 
point.   brieJly      tracing    a      remarkable

the  subject  is  a  timely  one  that  can 
always  bear  retelling,  and  Maj.  Byers

Among  the  Magazines. 


Scribner's  Magazine  for  Januarv  be- 
gins the  fifty-third  vcdume.  The  serial 
of  the  year,  of  which  the  first  generous 
instalment  is  printed,  is  "The  Custom 
of  the  Country,"  by  Edith  Wharton.  It 
is  an  intensely  modern  story  of  Amer- 
ican lite,  and  contrasts  the  social  con- 
ditions of  the  various  groups  which 
make  up  New  York  society— the  friv- 
olou.s,  the  serious,  the  old  families  and 
the  new.  Never  has  there  been  so  ac- 
curate and  moving  a  r>resentation  of 
New  York  as  it  is  by  one  who  reallv 
knows.  "Undine,"  the  heroine,  will  b'e 
as  much  a  character  to  be  discu.'ised 
as  was  "Lily  Bart"  of  'The  House  of 
Mirth.  '  Joseph  Bucklin  Bishop,  s-^c- 
retary  of  the  Isthmian  canal  commis- 
sion, has  resided  on  the  Canal  Zone  for 
the  past  five  years,  and  out  of  his 
abundant  material,  gathered  from  orig- 
inal sources,  gives  the  first  of  a  series 
of  articles,  this  one  entitled  "The 
trench  at  Panama."  It  is  a  dramatic 
and  at  times  heart-breaking  story  of 
the  greatest  financial  and  industrial 
fiasco  since  the  South  Sea  bubble.  Mr 
Bishop  points  out  how  much,  even  at 
the  worst,  was  well  planned  and  brave- 
ly  executed   by    the   French.

The  .January  Woman's  Home  Com- 
panion contains  a  really  notable  report 
of  the  militant  campaign  for  woman 
suffrage  that  is  going  on  in  England. 
It  gives  the  reader  a  clear  and  interest- 
ing idea  of  the  violence  of  the  strug- 
gle— quite  a  different  picture  from 
that  afforded  In  our  country  where  ten 
out  of  forty-eight  states  have  granted 
woman  suffrage  peacefully.  Another 
splendid  contribution  to  the  Januarv 
Companion  is  entitled  "Behind  The 
Scenes  at  the  Bargain  Sale,"  in  which 
the  author  gives  a  detailed  and  highly 
entertaining  account  of  the  many  in- 
teresting phenomena  that  enter"  into 
the  fixing  of  prices  of  goods  that  wo- 
men, particularly,  buy  at  sales.  Mary

as  safe  as  football  Is  asserted  in  an 
article  which  summarizes  the  fatali- 
ties of  the  science  during  19l:i.  Some 
remarkable  deductions  are  made  from 
the  aviation  death  records  for  several

at  Norwood,  because  they  wished  to 
sell  suburban  homes  to  Cincinnati  bus- 
iness men,  made  little  provision  for  the 
factory  workers  who  still  continue  to 
live  in  the  city.

In  his  article  in  Harper's  for  Janu- 
ary,  V.  Stefansson.  the  explorer,  tells 
dramatically  of  his  meeting  with  the 
strange  people  of  the  North  who  gave 
him  the  first  clew  to  the  now  famous 
blond  Eskimos.  The  article  is  illus- 
trated with  interesting  photogra-phs 
by  the  author.  In  'Pronouns  of  Ad- 
dress," Thomas  R.  Lounsbury  tells  how 
during  the  eighteenth  century  the  em- 
ployment of  "you  was"  prevailed  to  a 
great  extent,  occurring  more  or  les:^ 
frequently  in  the  writings  of  men  wiiO 
held  then  and  still  continue  to  hold  a 
high  rank  in  our  literature.  Another 
interesting  article  is  "On  the  Wav  to 
Africa,  "  by  Stewart  Edward  White",  il- 
lustrated with  photographs.  "Old- 
Fashionod  Children,"  by  E.  S.  Martin, 
is  illustrated  in  tint  b.v  Anna  Wlieian 
Betts.  The  stories  include  "A  God  In 
Israel."  by  Norman  Duncan;  "Tho 
Story  of  Alpheus  Moteley,"  by  Richard 
Washburn  Child;  "Man  Proposes,"  by 
Elizabeth  Jordan;  "Noblesse,"  by  Mary 
E.  Wilkins  Freeman;  "Our  Painter." 
by  Louise  Glosser  Hale;  "Comfort,"  by 
Mrs.  Henry  Dudeney:  "Son  Love,"  by 
William  Gilmore  Beymer.

Every  little  widow  has  a  meaning  of 
her  own.  That  is  the  wav  that  Life 
announces  its  number  this  week.  It 
seems  to  us  that  Life  might  have  made 
more  of  the  subject.  It  is  true  that 
there  is  a  widow  on  the  cover  and 
there  are  several  of  them  in  the  center 
page  cartoon;  also  there  are  other  wid- 
ows at  discreet  distances  throughout 
the  paper.  And  yet  the  eternal  charm 
of  the  widow:  Her  peculiar  distinc- 
tion as  a  human  being — has  not  this 
been  missed  by  Life?  It  Is  possible, 
however,  that  this  is  intended  only  as 
a  beginning.  Perhaps  later  on.  when 
Life  is  older  and  wiser.  It  will  issue  a 
widows  number  that  will  be  really 
worth  while.

Unwelcome  Guest. 

.She  etarted  to  say  good-bye  at  4 
o'clock.  At  a  quarter  to  5  she  was 
standing    by     the     vestibule    door,     one 

hand  on  the  doorknob,  talking  away 
4ust  as  glil>ly  as 
when  she  started  J^ 
in,  and,  as  far  as 
her  hostess  could 
tell,  with  just  as 
much  idea  of  break- 
ing off  a.s  when 
slie        entered       the 

i  house        some      two 

1  hours  earlier.  "If 
I  only  had  a  maid!" 
afterwards  said  tlie 
woman       who       had 

I  been    standing   first 

I  on  one  foot  and 
then  on  the  other 
while  her  guest 
made  her  departure.  "I  shouldn't 
mind  these  protracted  calls  if  there 
were  not  duties  at  the  back  of  the 
house  that  I  must  attend  to.  We 
started  from  the  den  about  4  o'clock, 
in  ample  time,  as  1  thought,  to  let  me 
prepare  the  dessert  for  dinner  and  do 
one  or  two  things  that  were  hanging 
over   me. 

"Something  In  the  dining  room  at- 
tracted her  attention — my  new  linen 
table  cover,  I  think.  We  stood  in  the 
doorway  there  while  she  told  me  in 
detail   about    the   fancy    work   she    had 


been  doing  the  past  summer.  By  slow 
stages  we  moved  toward  the  front 
door.  When  we  reached  the  parlor, 
there  was  another  long  delay,  while 
she  talked  and  talked.  Really  I  don't 
know  what  she  said,  or  how  she  came 
to  go  at  all,  unless  she  road  my  weari- 
ness in  my  face.  I  can't  help  it  If  she 
did.  If  she  had  only  sat  through  that 
three-quarters  of  an  hour,  It  wouldn't 
have   seemed  so  hard." 

Our  social  code  should  supply  some 
means  whereby  we  could  speed  the 
parting  guest  in  the  literal  sense  of 
the  word  "speed."  But  it  does  not.  We 
take  it  for  granted  people  will  not 
make  themselves  unduly  tiresome  or 
offensive.  Fortunately,  most  people  do 
have  a  saving  sense  that  keeps  them 
from  inflicting  this  kind  of  'torture 
upon  their  friends.  It  is  only  a  few 
people  who.  no  matter  how  they  may 
be  disturbed  by  a  failing  of  this  nature 
in  others,  have  the  factulty  of  dis- 
missing   a    per.'^on    politely. 

There  is  nothing  like  keeping  one's 
welcome  sincere.  The  guest  who  out- 
stays hers,  whether  by  the  week  or  the 
hour,  is  one  who  soon  goes  begging  for 
cordial  reception  and  invitations.  When 
you  visit  by  the  week,  bring  your  stay 
to  a  close  promptly,  and  don't  be  too 
easily  cajoled  into  extending  it  on  a 
polite  invitation  to  do  so,  unless  you 
are  sure  of  your  hostess.  Some  are 
sincere  and  some  are  not.  And  when 
you  are  paying  a  call,  and  rise  to  go — 

"Stand  not  upon  the  order  of  your 
going.  But  go  at  once."

CLUBS  AND  MUSICAL 


NOTABLE  ARTISTS  WILL  APPEAR 
BEFORE  THE  MATINEE  MUSICALE 


MME.  CORINNE  RIDER-KELSEY. 


m 


EMBERS  of  the  Matinee  Musicale 
are  enthusiastic  over  the  coming 
of  Mme.  ('orinne  Rider-Kelsey, 
soprano,  and  Claude  Cunningham,  bari- 
tone, to  Duluth  next  Thursday  evening, 
Jan.    2,    for   a    joint    recital    giving    the 

second  artists'  recital  in  the  course  for 
the  year.  The  concert  will  be  given  at 
the  Pilgrim  Congregational  church  at 
8.16  and  members  of  the  club  will  be 
admitted  on  ijresentation  of  their  mem- 
bership cards.  Out-of-town  guests  and 
men  will  also  be  admitted  as  extra 
tickets  are  sold  fur  them.  Owing  to 
the  large  number  of  college  young 
people  who  are  home  who  are  inter- 
ested and  who,  of  «our6e,  are  not  mem- 
bers of  the  club  th?  exception  has  been 
made  and  they  will  be  admitted  as 
"out-of-town  guests"  to  this  recital. 

On    several    of    Mme.     Rider-Kelsey's 
recent    concert   prot^rams   the   following 
group  of  songs  han  appeared: 
"Autumn  Bacchanale"   

Lola   Carrier   Worrell 

"April" Irm.i    Taylor   Wilson 

"Memory" Mary    Willing    Meagley 

"June" JLulu   Jones  Downing 

In  view  of  the  constantly  Increasing 
number  of  native  ••omposers,  both  men 
and  women,  the  above  group  would 
suggest  that  the  llstlnguished  Amer- 
ican soprano  had  taken  up  the  cause  of 
her  sex  in  that  fl'?ld  and  had  banded 
together  a  chosen  few  for  a  conquest 
of  their  rights,  bul  Mme.  Rider-Kelsey 
is  authority  for  tho  statement  that  she 
is  not — emphaticallv  not — a  suffragette. 
She  says  that  the  arrangement  of  the 
songs  was  purely  accidental. 

"The  Rthlcal   I'alur   ot   Muale." 

In  a  recent  newspaper  interview 
Claude  Cunninghan,  made  the  follow- 
ing comment:  "The  ethical  value  of 
music    can   scarcely-    be    overestimated. 


CLAUDE  CUNNINGHAM. 

Good  music  and  social  culture  are  so 
closely  related  that  one  is  justified  In 
calling  them  perfect  equations  In  one 
Idea.  A  singer's  life  will  reflect  tho 
music  he  Interprets  as  surelv  as  the 
mirror  will  reflect  his  feature."",  and  tho 
music,  in  turn,  will  affect  his  life.  Ho 
will  select  and  give  out  what  is  In  his 
nature  and  his  character  will  be  fur- 
ther moulded  by  that  selection.  Even 
dilferent  instruments  have  individual 
Influences  on  our  emotions.  Aristotle, 
more  than  two  thousand  vears  ago.  said 
that  the  flute  was  exciting  and  un- 
healthful.  In  my  opinion,  music  as  an 
art  form  is  more  insidious  than  liter- 
ature." 


GENEE^S  DANCING 

Arouses   the    Enthusiasm  of   Metro- 
politan Opera  House  Audience. 

HE  recent  appearance  of  Adeline 
Genee  at  the  Metropolitan  Operik 
house  in  New  York  was  most  fa- 
vorably commented  on  by  the  New 
York  dramatic  critics.  Their  opinion 
Is  of  Interest  In  view  of  the  comlny 
appearance  of  Genee  In  Duluth  next 
month  In  the  Reyner  Memorial  course. 
The  New  York  Sun  spoke  of  her  as 
follows: 

"It  seeme<»  yesterday  afternoon  as 
If  Adeline  Genee  had  at  last  found  th» 
appropriate  field  In  this  cltv.  After 
dancing  in  highly  flavored  burlesque, 
in  vaudeville  and  at  Carnegie  hall,  she 
appeared  at  the  Metropolitan  opera 
house. 

"There  was  a  great  audience  to 
greet  her  and  the  afternoon  was 
marked   by   as  much   enthusiasm  as   It

ponjc  iH)i)iil;ir  tenor  had  returned  to 
the  fitUi.  We  say  tenor  bt-cause  the 
audieme  was  so  largely  feminine  that 
it  seems  impossible  any  mere  soprano 
couUl  have  caused  so  much  applause. 

"Mme  Genee  returns  to  New  York 
with  no  ilecrease  In  her  skill  or  In  the 
dainty  iharm  which  she  Imparts  to  her 
performance.  Her  technical  facility  Is 
still  astonishing.  She  executes  the 
most  (lifficult  feats  of  her  art  with 
marvelous  rapi(liiy  and  accuracy. 
There  Is  no  sliirNnK  or  uncertainty. 
In  this  respect  she  seems  quite  Incom- 
parable   toda.v. 

"Her  toe  dancing:  is  another  super- 
lative ability  that  the  Danish  dancer 
po8ses.«ts.  Her  tinal  feat  at  the  end 
of  Robert  le  Diable  'when  she  slowly 
rose  until  one  foot  was  in  the  air  and 
nhe  was  standing  on  the  toe  of  the 
other  foot  was  certainly  a  tour  de 
force  of  classic  d mcinpr.  The  liprht- 
ness  of  her  movements  has  not  lost 
any  of  its  irresistible  charm  since 
the  rii.-t  nisht  she  danced  In  this 
count  r\-. 

"Mme  ("Jenee  was  first  seen  In  I-.a 
Carmapo  in  which  she  depleted  an  epi- 
sode in  the  lifo  of  that  famous  dancer. 
^vho  won  such  sudden  fame  by  tak-

tically all  shades  of  political  opinion,

tate the  premier  for  frankly  placing 
himself  on  record  as  an  aspirant  for

Printed      Arguments 
Counsel   Are  Filed  in 
Supreme  Court. 

Washington,  Dec.  28. — The  final  fight 
against  the  so-called  "Book  trust" 
opened  in  the  supreme  court  of  the 
United  States  when  a  printed  argu- 
ment was  filed  yesterday  asking  for  an 
injunction  against  the  carrying  into 
effect  of  agreements  between  publish- 
ers and  book-sellers  alleged  to  control 
the  supply  and  sale  of  books. 

The  injunction  Is  sought  bv  R.  H. 
Macy  &  Co..  a  New  Y'ork  department 
store  firm.  Those  sought  to  be  en- 
joined are  the  American  Publishers' 
association,  a  .Xew  Y'ork  corporation, 
said  to  be  composed  of  publishers  of 
about  75  per  cent  of  the  books  of  the 
country;  many  .>f  its  members,  and  the 
American  Book  Sellers'  association,  un- 
incorporated, said  to  be  composed  of  a 
large  majority  of  all  book-sellers 
throughout   the  United  States. 

The  New  Y'ork  courts  held  that  the 
injunction  should  be  issued  as  to  un- 
copyrlghted  books,  but  not  as  to  copy- 
righted ones.  The  question  now  pre- 
sented to  the  supreme  court  is  whether 
the  alleged  agreements  as  to  copv- 
righted  books  are  In  violation  of  the 
Sherman   anti-tj-ust   law. 

The  recent  "bath  tub"  case  decided 
by  the  supreme  court,  was  declared  to 
have  determined  the  lllegalitv  of  the 
contracts  for  tie  maintenanc'e  of  the 
prices   of  copyrighted   books.

SAYSHAWAHIS 

MORE  PROSPEROUS 

Governor  Frear  Makes  An- 
nual Report  on  Island 
Affairs. 

Washington,  Dec.  28. — Hawaii  has 
enjoyed  greater  prosperity  and  prog- 
ress during  the  last  year  than  during 
any  other  In  its  history,  according  to 
Governor  W.  I*"".  Frear's  annual  re- 
port, submitted  to  Secretary  of  the 
Interior  Fisher. 

The  preceding:  four  years  had  been 
notable  for  their  prosperlt.v,  says  the 
governor,  but  this  last  year  witnessed 
even  greater  strides  forward.  In  com- 
merce, homesteading,  improvement  in 
class  of  immigrants,  betterment  of 
transportation  facilities,  construction 
of  public  work,  public  health  admin- 
istration and  public  facilities  there  has 
been    marked    a<lvance. 

That  the  United  States  reclamation 
act  be  extended  to  Hawaii  Is  one  of 
the  governor's  recommendations.  He 
says  there  are  several  large  areas 
which  should  be  made  available  for 
settlements  by  Americans  in  colonies 
of  considerable   size. 

Imports  and  '^xports  of  the  islands 
during  the  year  total  $84,100,000,  an 
Increase  of  $14  680,000  over  the  pre- 
ceding year.  The  Increase  was  chiefly 
In  trade  with  the  United  States,  whlcii 
constituted  more  than  nine-tenths  of 
the  total.  The  Increase  In  exports  from 
the  territory  was  twelve  times  as 
much  as  that  in  the  Imports,  being 
$13,500,000  as  sgalnst  $1,180.00.  The 
exports  totalled  $55,400,000;  the  Im- 
ports,   $38,700,000. 

Governor  Frear  reports  that  "the 
percentage  of  homesteads  taken  by 
Americans  and  other  Caucaslons  has 
been  much  larger  this  year  than 
usual."

TAFT  LENTEn't  TO 

ARMY  COLONEL. 

Wai>>ilngton.  Dec.  28. — The  president 
has  remitted  the  unexecuted  part  of 
the  sentence  impoee^  by  iscncral  court 


iiiartial  in  1910  in  the  case  of  CoL 
George  F.  Cooke,  United  States  army, 
retired.  Col.  Cooke  was  tried  at  Se- 
attle, Wash.,  in  the  winter  of  1910,  on 
charges  of  neglect  and  carelessness  in 
the  handling  of  government  funds,  and 
of  failure  to  pay  money  borrowed  from 
enlisted  men.  He  was  sentenced  to 
dismissal. 

That  sentence  was  commuted  by  tho 
president  to  the  forfeiture  of  one-half 
of  his  pay  as  a  colonel  on  the  retired

Traction   Company  Claims 

No  Negligence  on  Its  Part 

Was  Shown. 

The  Duluth  Street  Railway  company 
has  filed  with  the  clerk  of  the  district 
court  a  motion  asking  for  judgment 
notwithstanding  the  verdict  for  the 
plaintiflF  in  the  case  brought  against 
it  by  James  Woods,  policeman,  who 
was  awarded  a  |400  verdict  for  the 
loss  of  a  finger  tip.  The  setting  aside 
of  the  verdict  is  sought  on  the  grounds 
that  the  evidence  failed  to  justify  the 
verdict  and  that  no  negligence  on  the 
part  of  the  company  was  established. 
The  j>oliceman  was  Injured  while  do- 
ing special  duty   on   a  Woodland  car. 


WANTS  $15,000  FOR 

SHORTENED  LEG. 

Onofrlo  Marfia,  aged  C8.  yesterday 
afternoon  filed  a  $15,000  personal  in- 
jury suit  against  the  Great  Northern 
railroad  company,  claiming  damages  in 
that  amount  for  injuries  received  while 
employed  as  section  hand  on  June  26 
last.  The  plaintiff  asserts  that  he  was 
directed  to  extra  work  loading  ice  at 
night  and  that  he  was  put  to  work 
in  a  dark  ice  house.  His  employment 
consisted  of  fastening  tongs  to  blocks 
of  ice  weighing  about  300  pounds  and 
to  start  them  on  a  skid  for  loading. 
During  this  operation  one  of  the 
cakes  slipped  and  caught  his  knee 
fracturing  the  leg  in  three  places.  He 
charges  the  railroad  company  with 
negligence  in  not  furnishing  better 
light  for  him  to  work  in.  One  of  his 
limbs  is  an  inch  shorter  than  the  other 
as   a   result  of  the  accident,   he  claims.

CREW  SAVED  FROM 

STRANDED  VESSEL. 

Wilmington,  X.  C,  Dec.  2S. — Capt. 
Gould  and  his  crew  of  eight  men  were 
rescued  last  night  from  the  schooner 
Savannah,  which  ran  shore  on  Frying 
Pan  shoals  In  a  heavy  gale.  Life  sav- 
ers from  the  Cape  Fear  and  Oak  Isl- 
and  stations   took   the  men   off. 

The  469-ton  lumber  laden  vessel  was 
bound  to  northern  ports  from  Jackson- 
ville. When  the  life-savers  reached 
Frying  Pan  shoals,  Capt.  Gould  and  the 
members  of  the  crew  had  taken  refuge 
in  the  rigging  of  the  schooner  and  had 
suffered    from    cold    and    exposure. 

It  is  believed  the  schooner  will  bo 
lost.

avals    which    have    oc- 

still     in     progress     in 

the  world.     On  the   Asi- 

the    overthrow   of  abso- 

h.u^    resulted    In    the    retirement 

Mancliu.-i      and    the    apparently 


stable  fousulation  of  the  Chinese  re- 
public. t>n  the  American  continents 
poetical  revolution  of  the  species  in 
which  l)unets  take  the  place  of  argu- 
rt'cnts  has  been  so  prevalent  that  more 
than  once  the  speedy  Intervention  of 
the  United   States  has  been   required. 


THE  WEXICAM  STRUGGLE. 

Most  Important  of  these,  on  account 
of  its  proximity,  has  been  the  political 
struggle  across  the  Rio  t^rande.  When 
Mexico  exchanged  Dlar.  for  Madero  and 
the  political  and  commercial  metliods 
of  tl'.e  president  who  had  been  virtual 
dictator  for  forty  years  were  replaced 
by  the  progressive  principles  for 
which  the  new  president  waged  the 
war  of  revolution,  it  was  hoped — al- 
though not  absolutely  exj>ected — that 
an  era  of  peace  and  great  prosperity 
hud  dar.ned  nnon  the  republic.  The 
hope    wr.  -  lealizod.      Early    in    the 

year,    it    >  cessary    for    the   Wash- 

ington auihorities  to  send  a  warnint? 
note  to  President  Madero  through  the 
American  enibas.<5v  that  his  govern- 
ment woiiM  l>e  iield  responsible  for 
any  loss  or  injury  to  .Vmerlcan  life  or 
pr<ir*  rty    iilnig    the    border. 

On  the  la:-t  day  of  .January,  the  city 
of  .luarez  was  seized  by  the  opponents 
of  thr-  Madero  government,  and  on  the 
following  day  Emilio  Vasquez  Gomez 
was  prodaiined  president  of  Mexico 
bv  the  revolutionists.  On  Feb.  -^. 
Gen.  Oroien,  military  governor  of 
Chihuahr  I.  turned  against  the  Madero 
government  and  seized  the  state  for 
the  revfdutionists.  By  March  3.  Gen. 
Orozro  and  hi.s  troops  wre  driven  out 
of  C.iibuahna  by  the  Madero  forces. 
Puring  the  month  of  May  the  revolu- 
tionists sunor»il  several  defeats,  and 
by  the  la.«t  of  Jvine  Orozco  offered  to 
surrender  if  amnesty  were  granted  to 
him  and  his  men.  This  was  refused, 
and  on  .^uly  3  the  reVipla  were  decis- 
ively defeated  in  a  battle  south  of 
Chihuahua.  By  Aug.  20,  the  city  of 
Juarez  was  once  more  under  the  con- 
trol of  Madero's  troops.  It  began  to 
lofdi  as  if  the  new  president  would 
.succeed  In  establishing  his  rule  over 
the   entire   republic. 

By  the  middle  of  October,  however,  a 
new  outbreak,  apparently  a  formidable 
one,  occurred,  this  time  at  Vera  Cruz, 
the  key  of  Mexico.  Gen.  Felix  Diaz, 
nephew  of  the  former  president  and  a 
popular  and  well-trained  soldier  who 
had  kept  aloof  from  all  former  revo- 
lutionary movement.*!,  put  himself  at 
the  head  of  the  uprising,  with  the  gar- 
rison of  Vera  f'ruz  at  his  command. 
Gen.  I»iHz'a  dream  of  empire  was  brief. 
A  few  days  sufficed  to  bring  to  an  end 
his  revolt  against  the  Madero  govern- 
ment. The  collapse  of  the  Diaz  move- 
ment one  week  after  its  inception  was 
regarded  as  the  highest  possible  vindi- 
cation of  the  confidence  felt  by  the 
government  in  the  loyalty  of  the  "army. 
I..ater.  the  Insurgent  movement  con- 
ducted by  Kmiliano  Zapata  gained 
strength,  and  thus  far  tlie  Madero  gov- 
ernment has  failed  to  fulfill  Its  promise 
of  a   peaceful  adnunlstration. 


UNCLE  SAM 

AGAIN  IN  CUBA. 

I-ate  In  vTanuary,  a  third  intervention 
by  tlie  I'nited  States  government  in  the 
affairs  of  Cul»a  seemed  imminent.  In 
tlie  previous  autumn  an  association  of 
veterans  of  the  Spanish  wars  was  or- 
ganized in  tl;e  island,  and  trouble  be- 
gan at  once,  the  new  bodv  taking  the 
groimd    that   all    public    officers    should 


ground  that  all  public  offices  should  be 
tilled  by  those  who  liad  fought  for  the 
independence  of  tJie  republic  and  that 
all  men  in  office  wlio  had  sympathi;;ed 
with  Spain  should  be  turned  out  forth- 
with. After  this,  the  association  con- 
ducted itself  in  such  an  arbitrary  man- 
ner tiiat  great  confusion  followed.  Riot- 
ing and  disorder  became  so  pronounced 
that  Secretary  Knox  was  obliged  to 
send  a  polite'  note  of  warning,  which 
seemed  to  have  the  desired  effect,  and 
the  trouble  passed  without  serious  con- 
sequences. 

On  Feb.  23,  at  the  request  of  Presi- 
dent Taft,  Secretary  Knox  started  on  a 
tour  of  all  the  lvatin-.\merican  repub- 
lics surrounding  the  Caribbean  sea  and 
tlie  Gu'.f  of  Me.\ico  for  the  purpose  of 
bringing  about  a  better  understanding 
of  the  Monroe  doctrine.  Tliis  visit  re- 
sulted in  a  notable  increase  in  cordi- 
ality between  the  countries,  with  a  sin- 
gle "exception — before  sailing  from  Key 
West,  Mr.  Knox  received  a  note  from 
Senor  Ospina,  Colombian  minister  to 
the  United  States,  informing  him  tl.at 
his  intended  visit  to  Colombia  might 
not  prove  to  lie  pleasant  at  that  time. 
A  few  davs  later,  Ospina  left  Washing- 
ton, recalled,  it  was  stated,  by  his  gov- 
ernment. Mr.  Knox  did  not  visit  any 
Colombian    city. 

Call    for    Protection. 
In   Cuba   Mr.    Knox   made   a    six   day^:' 
sojourn,   and  was  received  officially  at 
Havana.     President  Gomez  gave  a  din- 
ner  in    his    honor,    and    great    harmony 
prevalled.      The    secretary    was    able    to 
report  on  his  return  to  Washington  that 
all  need  of  intervention  had  passed  and 
that  Cuba  was  in  a  condition  of  nrat!- 
fylng  prosperity.      But     this     desirable 
state      of     affairs      did     not      continue. 
.Scarcely   had    the    trouble   over   the   ab- 
surd demand  of  the  veterans  beer,  dis- 
posed    of     when     a     revolt     of     negro<?s 
brol<e    out    in    the    eastern    part    of    the 
island,  and  the  insurrection  spread  rap- 
Idly.      President    Gomez    seemed    to    be 
powerless   to   put   an    end   to   the    disor- 
der,   and    soon    American    citizen    resi- 
dents in  Cuba  were  calling  for  protec- 
tion from  their  home  government.     The 
appeal     was     successful,     and     thu.s     it 
happened    that,     for      the      tliird    time 
within     fourteen     years,     an     American 
military    force    was    landed    on    tho    l.-'l- 
and.       After       this      comparative    quiet 
reigned    until    mid-autumn,     when    th.? 
presidential    campaign    brought    on    an- 
other period   of  insecurity  for  the   cUl- 
zens  of  Havana  and  otlier  large  towns. 
The      presidential      election,      however, 
which    occurred    on    Nov.    1,    passed    otT 
without    serious    outbreak,    and    Mario 
Menocal,     the    Conservative    candidate, 
was    successful    . 

The  affairs  of  the  South  and  Central 
American  republics  In  general  have  not 
been  marked  by  peaceful  administra- 
tion. Early  in  January  several  pro- 
vinces 'n  Ecuador  refused  to  recogni^.e 
the  presidency  of  Gen.  Montero,  a  revo- 
lution followed,  and  the  United  States 
cruiser  Maryland  was  ordered  to 
Guavaquil  to  protect  American  Inter- 
ests." The  republic  of  Paraguay  main- 
tained its  reputation  as  a  mischief 
breeder  throughout  the  year,  with 
scarcely  a  peaceful  interval. 


Inter  of  war,  was  asked  to  resign  by 
Pre.sldent  J>laz  and  declined,  going  to 
war  Instead,  and  leading  a  rebel  force 
against  the  capital,  Managua.  A  few 
days  prevhms  to  the  bombardment  a 
detachment  of  American  sailors  and 
marines  was  landed  near  Managua  to 
protect  our  legation.  During  the 
attack  by  the  revolutionists,  .\meric«in 
soldiers  assisted  In  the  defense  of  the 
city.  On  Aug.  27  a  battleship  and  sev- 
eral crulst-rs  under  ce^mmand  of  Hear 
Admiral  SoutherlanJ  landed  1.200  ma- 
rines at  Managua,  and  eighty  American 
sailors  protected  the  railroad  connec- 
tion from  the  coast  to  the  interior. 
These  sailors  and  marines  took  part  In 
the  fighting  against  tlie  rebels,  cap- 
tured several  important  positions  and 
)  practically  put  an  end  to  the  revolu- 
tion. 

By  the  last  week  in  October  the  sit- 
uation in  the  affairs  of  the  republic  of 
Santo  Domingo  had  become  so  tangled 
that  American  Intervention  seemed  to 
be  the  only  remedy.  The  American 
special  commissioners  sent  to  brine 
order  out  of  cliaos  Insisted  that  the 
Dominican  government  clean  house 
promptly  and  thoroughly.  They  de- 
manded that  the  custom  houses  should 
be  re-established  along  the  frontier, 
and  the  American  marines  sent  down 
on  the  Prairie  were  held  in  readiness 
to  assist  in  the  task,  should  it  be  found 
necessary.  For  a  while  the  situation 
indicated  spe^edy  American  intervention. 
Later,  affairs  in  the  republic  assumed  a 
more  promising  aspect,  and  finally  the 
warring  factions  united  and  elected 
Archbishop  Nouel,  a  Roman  Cathedic 
prelate,  president  of  the  republic.

the  turks. 


The  sudden  breaking  out  of  the  war 
in  the  Balkans  in  October  made  all  the 
diplomatic  forecasts  of  the  preceding 
weeks  ridiculous.  After  an  unusually 
laborious  effort  in  coming  to  an  ar- 
rangement, the  representatives  of  the 
great  powers  agreed  on  a  collective 
note  to  Turkey  and  to  the  so-called 
Balkan  federation,  telling  the  former 
that  it  must  conduct  itself  properly, 
and  the  latter  that  no  uprising  would 
be  countenanced.  Before  that  note  of 
warning  could  be  delivered.  King 
NMcholas  of  Montenegro  broke  over  the 
frontier,  the  Bulgarian  army  was 
massed  within  striking  distance  of 
.\drianople,  the  Servians  were  moving 
to  the  aid  of  the  Bulgars,  and  the 
Greeks  were  shelling  Turkish  forts. 

When    Turkey    received    the    note    of 
the  powers,   she  declined  to  accept  the 
advice,    and    the    E-alkan    governments 
paid    little    attention    to    It.      War    had 
begun   and   it  was   not   merely   nominal, 
but    planned,    organized    and    vigorous. 
Within    a    fortnight    the    Moslems    had 
suffered   heavv  defe«at  In  the  northwest 
from    King  Nicholas'   troops,   led    by  the 
old    king    and    two    of    his    sons,    in    the 
southwest  from   the  Greeks  and  in    tiie 
east    around    Adrianaople.      Even    Con- 
stantinople   was    threatened      seriously 
and    the    very    existence      of      Ottoman

Meanwhile     the    great    powers    stood 
aghast    and    apparently    at    sea    as    to 
the  prooer  course  to  pursue.  For  near- 
ly  a   genet-ation    th-sy   had    been    afraid 
to  make  a  move  unitedly  for  fear  that 
one   Or   more   of   them    would    profit   by 
it.      The    two    powers    most    Intimately 
connected  with  the  business  have  been 
Austria     and     Russia.        Germany     has 
stood    behind    the    former    and    Fi-ance 
has    .sided    with    the    latter.       The    de- 
mands   made    by    the    Balkan    govern- 
ments   et    the    outset    were    not    unrea- 
son'able  and  could  have   been   made  the 
basis   of   a   settlement.      All   they   asktd 
was  autonomy  for   the   European   prov- 
inces   of    Turkey,    with    Christian    gov- 
ernors   and    equal    rights.      The    Balkan 
states    were    not    in    "a    m.ood    to    wait 
long    for    a    reply    to    their     demands; 
they    had    been    victims    to    the    uncer- 
tainty   of    diplomacy    too    frequently    to 
trust    their    business    to    others.       This 
time   they   decided   to   present   their  de- 
mands    In     person.       This     bold     stroke 
was    carried    out    with    amazing    dash

OUR  PRESIDENTIAL 

ELECTION. 

Although    it    was    conducted    without 
the    appeal    to    arms    which    is    charac-  , 
teristlc      of      I.atin-Amerlcan      political  | 
revolutions,  the  presidential  election  in  j 
this    country    was    scarcely    less    sensa-  i 
tlonal    in    many    of   its    features.      Never  i 
before    have    the    contests    within    the  i 
parties — those    on    belialf   of   particular  : 
candidates  and  particular  points  of  po-  ! 
litical    creed — been    so      long-continued  I 
and    so    exciting.      Ordinarily,    the    four  ■ 
months    between    convention    time    and  ■ 
election  day  are  sufficiently  engrossing,  | 
but    the    recent    presidential    campaign  j 
was  different — five  or  six  months  previ- 
ous to  the  nominations  were  devoted  to 
tremendous  activity  witliin  the  ranks  of 
the   two  leading  parties.     This  was  due 
to   the   adoption    in   a   number   of   states 
of  a  direct  system  of  ascertaining  pop- 
ular   preference    for    candidates    which 
replaced    tlie    old    way    by    which    party  I 
caucuses    and    conventions    were    man-  | 
aged  by  state  and  local  leaders.  | 

The  Repulillcan  Row.  ; 

By  this  means  it  was  found  that  the  i 
rank  and  file,  in  s^ome  of  the  states  ; 
which  liad  adopted  the  direct  primary,  I 
was  oppoi-ed  to  the  administration  and 
strongly  in  favor  of  the  progressive 
movement  and  its  leaders.  In  those 
states  in  which  no  such  method  had  bet  n 
introduced  the  party  machine  was  stil' 
able  to  control  the  delegations.  Thus 
it  was  that  a  conflict  most  unfamiliar 
to  the  American  voter  rose  between  the 
two  most  prominent  Republican  aspir- 
ants— President  Taft  and  ex-President 
l^oorevelt.  Although  the  iirect  primar- 
ies seemed  to  indicate  a  decided  pref- 
erence for  fie  latter,  the  former  be- 
came the  nominee  of  the  convention,  a 
\erQict  which  was  not  accepted  by 
Col.  Roosevelt  and  his  friends,  who 
declined  to  take  part  in  the  convention 
and  w^ithdrew.  Later,  on  Aug.  5,  the 
dissentients  re-assembled  In  the  con- 
ventioi:  city,  Chicago,  named  a  ticket 
and  adopted  a  p.atform.  The  ticket 
was  headed  by  Col.  Roosevelt,  with 
Governor  Johnson  jf  California,  one  of 
the  seven  executives  who  had  asked 
liim  to  become  a  candidate,  as  his  run- 
ning mate.

The  Democratic  convention  opened 
at  Baltimore  on  June  25  with  a  sharp 
fight  over  the  choice  of  a  temporary 
chairman,  William  J.  Bryan  being  op- 
posed to  Alton  B.  Parker  on  th.-^ 
ground  of  the  latter  being  the  candi- 
date of  Tam.-nany  Hall  and  the  Wall

lected, but  in  all  subsequent  proceed- 
ings. Mr.  Bryan's  inTiUence  was  domi- 
nant, his  candidate  for  permanent 
chairman,  Ollie  M.  James  of  Kentucky, 
being  chosen.  The  sensational  feature 
of  the  convention  was  Bryan's  decla- 
ration that  he  would  support  no  man 
who  was  acceptable  to  the  New  York 
delegation.  Until  that  time  Speaker

Italy    and    Turkey's    \%"^r. 

The  Vvar  between  Italy  and  Turkey, 
which  was  brought  to  an  end  in  Oc- 
tober, proved  to  be  something  quite 
different  from  the  expectation  of  the 
Italian  statesmen  and  officers  while 
they  were  preparing  for  what  they 
regarded  -as  the  easy  conquest  of  Trl- 
politania  and  the  surrounding  terri- 
tory. Instead  of  being  "a  wholesome 
exercise  for  the  army  and  navy,"  as  it 
was  denominated  at  the  tim.e,  it 
turned  out  to  be  a  serious  campaign 
of  more  than  a  years  duration,  costly 
in  money,  men  and  effort.  With  an 
army  of  more  than  150.000  men,  all 
well  equipped,  with  a  fleet  of  aero- 
planes and  dirigibles,  -and  backed  by  a 
strong  navy,  the  Italians  found  that 
it  was  not  so  easy  to  bring  the  Porte 
to  terms  as  they  had  anticipated. 
Finding  It  Impossible  to  accomplish 
the  easy  result  expected  in  Tripoli, 
and  ur.'able  to  defeat  the  Arabs  ele- 
cisively.  Italy  attempted  to  end  the 
war  in  various  ways — by  bombarding 
Beirut,  by  helping  the  Yemen  rebels 
against  Turkish  rule,  by  attacking  the 
Dardanelles — hoping  thus  to  compel 
Europe  to  Interfere — and  finally  by 
stirring    up    the    warlike    Balkans. 

Italy  was  willing  to  make  conces- 
sions In  order  to  make  annexation  of 
Tripoli  a  permanent  thing,  such  as  In- 
demnity, return  of  the  captured  isl- 
ands and  the  granting  of  religious 
rights  In  the  conquered  territory,  and 
in  October  "an  acrreement  was  reached 
and  the  war  was  declared  at  an  end. 
Thus,  w^ith  the  annexation  of  Tilpoll 
bv  Ital.v  the  partition  of  .^frica  by 
Europe    Is    practically    complete. 

BIRTH  OF  THE^ 

CHINESE  REPUBLIC. 

.M  the  close  of  1911,  the  Chinese 
."Situation  h-ad  assumed  the  lines  of  a 
contest  between  those  who  were  for 
the  retention  of  Ihe  monarchy  under 
a  modernized  constitution  and  those 
v.-ho  were  for  a  repuVjlic.  While  South 
China  favored  a  republic,  the  northern 
provinces  were  Inclined  to  cling  to 
the  old  form.  All  over  the  country, 
however,  there  was  a  general  deter- 
mination to  get  rid  of  the  hated  Man- 
ehus.  One  p*arty  aimed  to  substitute 
a  new  emperor  of  pure  Chinese  stock 
for  the  baby  Pu  Yl  and  another  to 
organize  a  real  republic  under  the 
presidency  of  Yuan  Shih-k-al  or  Dr. 
Sun    Yat-sen. 

At  a  conference  held  by  the  reform 
leaders  of  fourteen  provinces,  many 
differencCii  were  reconciled  and  a  re- 
publican Constitution,  based  on  the  or- 
ganic law  of  the  Ignited  States,  was 
diawn  up.  According  to  Its  terms,  a 
provisionai  president  was  to  be  elected 


for  reorganizating  the  financial  system 
of  the  country.  For  more  than  a  year, 
the  financial  representatives  of  six 
great  powers — the  United  States,  Great 
Britain,  Germany,  France,  Russia  and 
Japan— had  been  trying  to  negotiate  a 
loan  with  China^  Although  the  six- 
power  group  of  foreign  financiers  w-as 
willing  to  furnish  the  money,  the  condi- 
tions were  so  distasteful  to  the  Chinese 
officials    that   they   hesitated. 

It  had  been  evident  for  some  time 
that  both  MongoHa  and  Turkestan,  out- 
Iving  Cliinese  provinces,  were  about  to 
pass  under  Russian  influence.  For 
many  years  the  former  has  been  more 
Russian  than  Chinese.  Russian  garri- 
sons have  occupied  the  chief  townB  for 
the  alleged  protection  of  the  consulates, 
and  the  official  announcement  of  the 
Independence  of  Northern  Mongolia, 
Oct  10.  w-as  a  further  step  in  the  di- 
rectiem  of  absorption.  Despite  the  pro- 
gress made  by  President  Yuan  in  car- 
rving  out  thereform  program,  there  Is

Other  Nomination*. 
On  July  12,  the  national  Prohibition 
convention,  in  session  at  Atlantic  City, 
N.  J.,  nominated  Eugene  W^  Chafin  for 
president  and  Aaron  S.  W^atklns  f'-r 
vice  president.  The  Socialist  national 
convention,  in  session  at  Indianapol!'', 
Mav  17,  nominated  Eugene  V.  Debs  for 
president  and  Emll  Seldel,  Socialist 
ex-mayor  of  Milwaukee,  for  vice 
president. 

The  campaign  fairly  bristled  with 
novel  features.  The  appearance  of  a 
new  party  of  unknown  strength  -and 
possibilities  led  by  a  former  president 
whom  the  third-term  dissenters  re- 
garded as  disqualified  was  not  the 
least  Interesting  of  these.  Another 
striking  peculiarity  of  the  campaign, 
which  was  shared  about  equally  by 
the  three  larger  parties  in  the  field, 
was  the  comparative  shrinkage  in 
campaign  contributions  and  expendi- 
tures. It  will  pass  Into  tradition  as 
one  of  the  most  economical  campaigns 
In  the  history  of  the  country,  certainly 
the  most  Inexpensive  since  that  of 
1876.  which  had  held  the  record. 

The  shooting  of  the  Progressive  can- 
didate    by     the    paranoiac    Schrank    at 
Milwaukee,  was  an  unfamiliar  feature 
of  the  American  presidential  campaign. 
Hitherto,  aspirants  for  the  presidential 
office  had  traversed  the  country  in  ac- 
tive furtherance  of  their  ambition  with 
no  thought  of  personal  danger  to  inter- 
fere   with    their    laudable      design      of 
showing   themselves    to    their   support- 
ers.    At  Milwaukee,  on  the  evening  of 
Oct.    14,    Col.    Roosevelt    had    Just    en- 
tered a  waiting  automobile  which  was 
to  take  him  to  the  building  In  which  a 
great    audience    awaited    him.     Among 
the   crowd   thronging   the  street  was   a 
man    who    managed    to    work    his    way 
to    the   side    of    the    automobile   and    to 
fire  a  revolver  at  such  close  range   as 
to   have  made   a   miss   impossible.     The 
bullet    passed    through       the       victim's 
overcoat  and  thence  through  the  manu- 
script sheets  of  a  speech  which  was  in 
an   inner  pocket,   penetrating  the  right 
breast  to  a  depth   of  three  inches.

On  October  3,  he  returned  to  his  home  i

thirty-one  days,  comprising  more  than 
10,000  miles  of  travel  and  speech-mak- 
ing in  twenty-seven  states.  After  rest- 
ing a  day  or  two,  the  Progressive  can- 
didate   apneared    before    the   Clapp    In- 
\estlgating    committee    In    Washington 
and    testified    in    regard    to    his   knowl-

tour,    with    the    iptention    of   remaining 
until  the  eve  of  election  day.   Schrank's 
bullet   compelled    the   Instant  abandon- 
ment  of   the   plan    and   the   substitution 
of  a  sojourn  of  several  days  in  a  Chi- 
cago hospital,  a  weary  return  to  Saga- 
more   Hill    and    a    practical    conclusion 
of   the   itinerant   Progressive   campaigii

was  conducted  with  marked  dlgnKj 
and  tact,  and  his  speeches  were  cot>- 
cerned  mainly  with  the  tariff,  the  con-

menti  President  Taft  showed  little 
activity  in  his  campaign  for  re-eli^c-

campalen  committee  for  hlg  renomlna- 
tion  was  notably  aggressive,  but  the 
public  advocacy  of  the  Taft-Sherman 
ticket  was  lacking  in  vigor.  The

thing like  it  in  American  politics.  It 
has  shown,  for  one  thing,  that  it  is 
possible  to  elec",  by  the  practically 
unanimous  vote  of  the  electoral  col- 
lege, a  candidal  e  for  president  who 
has  not  received  a  majority  of  the 
whole  popular  ve  te  cast  at  the  election. 
The  large  increase  in  the  Socialist 
vote,  notwithstanding  the  defeat  of  that 
party  in  its  chief  stronghold,  Milwau- 
kee, was  another  noteworthy  feature 
of  the  election.  In  190S  Eugene  V- 
Debs,  the  Socialist  canditlate  received 
420,793  votes.  At  the  recent  election 
his  vote  was  approximately  684,432. 
Still  another  peculiarity  of  the  elec- 
tion was  the  falling  off  in  the  total 
vote.  Despite  the  increase  in  popula- 
tion and  the  adcltion  of  women  voters 
in  several  states,  that  total  vote  did 
not    materially    .;xceed    that    of    1908. 

Quite  as  remaikable  as  was  the  divi- 
sion   of   the   political    parties   was   that 
of   the    voters   themselves   in   state  ana 
,  local    matters.       In    Tennessee,    for    In- 
I  stance,  WMlson   received  a  larga  m.ilor- 
■  Ity    and    a   Democratic    legislature   was 
i  elected,  but  a  Republican  governor  was 
;  elected.       Massat  husetts     chose     Demo- 
i  cratic      presidential      electors,      gover- 
nor lieutenant  governor  and   .•=ecretary 
of    state,    but    the    Republicans    gained 
1  the  legislature  and  the  remaining  state 
'  officers.     Several   erther  states  exhibited 
like  peculiarltieK  in  their  vote.     Color- 
ado, with  her  women  enfranchised,  re- 
jected   prohibition.      In    West    Virginia 
the     male    voters    carried      prohibition 
overwhelmingly. 

\ote»  for  Women. 

Three  states — Kansas,  Oregon  and 
Arizona — were  f  dded  to  the  six — Wy- 
oming, Coloradc,  Idaho,  Utah.  Wash- 
ington and  California — which  had  al- 
ready extended  the  franchise  to  wom- 
en. In  three  other  states,  Ohio,  Michi- 
gan and  Wisconsin,  the  measure  was 
defeated.  In  Kentucky  the  school  suff- 
rage was  given  "o  women.  Abroad,  the 
movement  has  been  carried  on  vigor- 
ously. In  S-weden — where  women  al- 
readv  have  the  municipal  franchise —  a 
bill  "for  the  extension  of  full  suffrage 
was  introduced  Into  the  riksdag, 
passed  the  lower  house,  but  was  lost 
in  the  upper  louse.  In  Hungary. 
France.  Portugal  and  even  In  China  the 
subject  has  beei  under  active  discus- 
sion in  the  law-making  bodies.  In  Den- 
mark where  ccmraunal  suffrage  pre- 
vails,' the  subject  of  full  privilege 
before    the    legislature. 


SOME  IMPORTANT 

LEGISLATION. 

The  long  session  of  congress,  which 
adjourned  Aug.  26,  was  the  first  since 
the    administration      of      Cleveland      in 


whlcli  either  of  the  three  branches  of 
the  government  had  been  different 
from  the  others  in  political  complexion. 
Mr.  Tafi's  experience  in  trying  to  drive 
In  double  harness  a  team  composed  of 
a  Republican  senate  and  a  Democratic 
house  was  not  unlike  that  of  Mr. 
Cleveland  during  the  last  two  years  of 
his  second  administration.  For  the  lat- 
ter half  of  his  term,  Mr.  Taft  had  to 
deal  with  a  hou;.e.,  overwhelmingly 
hostile  to  his  political  faith.  Jjuch  a 
situation  has  always  resulted  in  com- 
plication for  the  executive  and  as  an 
;n..;icaiion  of  a  coming  political  revolu- 
tion. 

Despite     these     political     and     other 
handcaps,    the    long    se.'^'^ion    really    ac- 
complished an  unusual  amount  of  legis- 
lation,  some   of  it  Important.     Much   of 
the  new  legislation   was  combined  with 
i  approjjriaiJon     bills.      The    parcel    post 
j  legislation    was    made    a    part    of    tne 
postoffice      appropriation    bill.      By    this 
experimental    measure    any    article    not 
likely  to  do  harm  In  the  mails  and  not 
over   eleven    pounds   in   weight    and   not 
exceeding   seventy-two    incites    in    com- 
bined  length   and   glrtii   is   mailable. 
Panama    Canal    ToIIn. 
Another  piece  of  legislation  of  an  ex- 
tensive    a.'id     highly-important     nature 
was   the    Panama    canal   measure,    witli 
several    riders    of    the    greatest    signifi- 
cance.    By  it  the  president  may  Iix  tolls 
and  change  them  at  liis  discretion.  The 
senate   adopted   a    provision   permitting 
toll-free    transportation    to    all    Ameri- 
can buslnes.s,  foreign   or  dome.=  tlc.  This 
was    met    by    such    a    storm    of    protest 
both    at    home   and    abroad    that    finally 
the  free-toll  provLsion  was  restricted  to 
American  coastwise  shipping.     A.nother 
Important    provision    written    into    this 
bill  gives  the  interstate  commerce  com- 
mission   general    authority    over    rela- 
tions   of    rail    and    water   carriers,    even 
to    the    extent    of    shutting   out    of    the 
canal  all  lines  financially  affiliated  with 
railroads     If    such     affiliation     conflicts 
with  commercial  freedom.      This  provi- 
sion   extends    to    all    relationships    be- 
tween  rail   and  water   carriers,  includ- 
ing the  Great  Lakes.  .Still  another  very 
important    clause    in    the    bill    permits 
free  registry  of  foreign-built  ships  un- 
der   the    American    flag   and    tariff-free 
admittance   of   ship-building   materials. 
Labor    Laws. 
The  session  was  unusually  productive 
of   laws   for   the   benefit   of    labor.      One 
measure  extends  the  old  eight-hour  act 
governing       government       work,       and 
makes  the  elglit-hour  day  apply  to  all 
work    done    on    government    contracts. 
As    a    direct    result    of    the    dynamite 
outrages  at  Los  Angeles  and  elsewhere 
a    bill    was    passed    which    provided    for 
a    commission     to    investigate     general 
industrial     conditions.       The     children's 
bureau  measure  provided  for  a  perma- 
nent    bureau    which    shall    investigate 
problems   of  child   life — education,   em- 
ployment,  wages,   working  hours,   sani- 
tary   and    moral    conditions,    etc.      Miss 
Julia    Lathrop    was    appointed    head    of 
the  bureau  by  President  Taft.     The  blU 
for    the    creation    of    a    department    of 
labor,    to   be   represented    in    the   presi- 
dential    family     by     a     cabinet     officer, 
passed   the    house. 

After  long  years  of  wrangling  and 
irritating  delay,  a  Joint  resoliition  sub- 
mitting   to    the   states   a   constitutional 

I  amendment  providing  for  the  direct 
election    of    senators    has    been    passed, 

1  and  it  will  come  before  the  legislatures 
of  a  large  majority  of  the  states  dur- 
ing the  present  winter.  In  order  to 
become  elTective,  it  will  have  to  be 
ratified  by  three-fourths  of  these.  Thus 
far,  only  tw^o  states,  Massachusetts 
and  Minnesota,  have  acted  on  the 
amendment.  The  long  and  bitter  fight 
against  William  Lorimers  right  to  his 
scat  as  a  senator  from  Illinois  was 
brought  to  a  dose  by  his  exclusion 
by  almost  a  two-thirds  vote.  The  at- 
tempt to  exclude  Senator  Isaac  Steph- 
enson of  Wisconsin  on  the  ground  that 
he  had  bought  hi»  nomination  and 
election  failed.  On  Feb.  14,  President 
Taft  signed  the  proclamation  admit- 
ting Arizona  as  the  forty-eighth  state 
of  the  union.  Feb.  19,  the  United  States 
supreme  court  decided  that  the  consti- 
tutionality of  the  Initiative  and  refer- 
endum is  a  political  question  for  con- 
gress to  settle  and  not  a  Judicial  one 
for  the   courts. 

Snlia  Asralnst  Tniats. 

Although  federal  activity  In  the  In- 
vestigation of  the  trusts  has  been  con- 
tinued throughout  the  year,  much  of 
the  dash  and  vigor  of  the  earlier 
prosecutions  has  been  wanting,  and 
few  sen.sational  developments  have  been 
brought  to  light.  Early  In  January, 
Attorney  General  Wickersham  aui- 
nounced  that  he  would  make  an  effort 
to  dissolve  the  Harvester  trust,  but  it 
was  not  until  April  27  that,  by  order 
of  President  Taft,  suit  was  brought 
against  the  company  In  the  district 
court  of  Minnesota.  No  decision  has 
been  reached  in  the  case.  In  March, 
the  government's  suit  against  the  su- 
gar trust  was  begun  in  New  York, 
and  about  the  same  time  the  attorney 
general  asked  the  United  States  su- 
preme court  to  dissolve  the  merger  of 
the  Union  Pacific  and  Southern  Pa- 
cific systems.  In  the  case  of  the  su- 
gar trust,  the  Jury  failed  to  agree,  but 
the    merger    was    dissolved. 

One  of  the  most  interesting  trust 
prosecutions  of  the  year  was  that 
brought  by  Attorney  General  Wicker- 
sham to  force  into  the  market  a  large 
consignment  of  coffee  which  belonged 
to  the  Brazilian  state  of  San  Paolo,  and 
which  was  held  in  a  Brooklyn,  N.  Y., 
warehouse  to  influence  the  price.  This 
action  caused  considerable  excitement 
even  in  diplomatic  circles,  but  noth- 
ing further  came  of  It,  for  the  present

IRISH  HOME  RULE 

MEASURE. 

The  perennial  Irish  home  rule  agi- 
tation macie  an  early  appearance  In 
the  Hrltish  parliament,  in  the  shape 
of  a  bill  introduced  Into  the  house  of 
commons  by  Premier  As<iuith.  The 
features  of  this  bill  were  provisions 
for  -an  Irish  parliament,  consisting  of 
a  senate  and  a  house  of  commons;  re- 
ligious equality,  veto  power  for  the 
lord  lieutenant,  control  of  the  postal 
service,  but  the  collection  of  taxes 
tcf  remain  with  the  imperial  servi.-e; 
the  power  to  reduce  or  discontinue  all 
Imperial  taxes  except  -the  income  tax 
■and  tht  stamj)  and  estate  duties.  It 
seemed  to  be  more  popular  In  England 
than  In  Ireland,  although  the  Irish 
party  In  parliament  declared  in  favor 
of  It-  A  great  demonstration  In  Tra- 
falgar Squaie.  l.rindon.  in  favor  of  the 
measure  was  offset  l)v  a  still  larger 
anti-home  rule  manifestation  In  Bel- 
fast, where  the  bill  Is  extremely  unpop- 
ular. 100,000  persons  participating  In 
the  demonstration  ag-alnst  It.  Before 
the  house  adjourned,  on  Aug.  7,  the 
bill  ha.l  passed  Its  first  and  second 
readings,  and  its  promoters  were  con- 
tldent  of  its  success.  During  the  third 
reading  of  the  bill,  Oct.  11.  the  oppo- 
sition defeated  the  government  by  a 
parli'amentary  I  rick,  and  the  speaker 
adjourned  the  session.  Similar  tar- 
tics  followed,  and  the  opposition  dis- 
played unexpected  strength.  On  Dec 
12.  the  home  rule  bill  passed  the

DISASTER  ON 

LAND  AND  SEA. 

Measured  by  the  mortality  involved. 
the  soiial  prominence  of  many  of  the 
victims  and  the  shock  given  to"  the  civ- 
ihzed  world,  the  sinking  of  the  mam- 
moth trans-Atlantic  liner  Titanic 
stands  lirst  not  only  in  the  year's  rec- 
ord of  disaster,  but  In  the  entire  his- 
tory of  mail's  experience  on  the  sea 
The  giant  steamship,  the  largest  ever 
launched,  on  her  maiden  voyage  from 
Liverpool  to  New  York,  at  a  little  be- 
fore midnight,  on  April  24  collided 
with  an  iceberg  which  had  come  down 
in  the  I-iahrador  current  and  was  on 
Its  way  southward.  Four  hours  later 
the  luckless  ocean  greyhound  was  at 
the   bottom  of  the   sea. 

As  soon  as  the  blow  was  struck  the 
water  began  to  flow  in  rapldlv,  and 
soon  after  midnight  it  had  risen  to  a 
foot  in  depth  in  the  third-class  (luar-

were  those  in  authority  that  the  safety 
devices  of  which  the  builders  of  tlie 
great  ship,  at  her  launching,  had 
boasted  would  render  her  "absolutelv 
unslnkable."  that  It  was  not  until  ah 
hour  or  more  after  the  collision  that 
the  wireless  call  for  help  was  sent  to 
Cape  Race,  Newfoundland,  and  the  life- 
boat.s  were  lowered.  Then  the  appal- 
ing  discovery  was  made  that  the  Tl- 
tanic's  equipment  of  lifeboats,  life 
raft!|i  and  even  life  preserver.^  was 
wholly  inadequate  to  the  demand.

As  this  dread  conclusion  forced  itself 
upon  the  helpless  vblims  there  fol- 
lowed a  scene  of  agonized  panic  of 
which  no  surviving  witness  elects  to 
speak.  A  thousand  tragedies  com- 
bined in  one  were  enacted  in  that  brief 
period.  After  the  twenty  lifeboats 
were  lowered,  the  stern  law  of  the 
soa — 'women  and  children  first" — was 
enforced  as  far  as  possible.  Instances 
of  heroic  renunciation  that  tlirilled  the 
world  were  many  and  thev  serve  to 
redeem  in  part  the  horror  of  the  dread- 
ful moment  when  the  doomed  ship  her 
captain,  his  cliief  officer.s  and  a  host 
of  passengers  eminent  in  art  letters 
finance,  the  church,  public  life  and  "o-

than  2,300,  and  mostlv  women  and 
children — the  last  glimpse  of  the  Ti- 
tanic and  her  precious  burden  as  she 
sank  majestically,  her  death  song  the 
prayerful  "Nearer,  Mv  God,  to  Thee" 
with  which  her  musicians  linked  h.>r

MiMMlfiftiitpl    FIoodN. 
In  the  1-itter  part  of  .March  and  dur- 
ing the  first  weeks  of  April,  one  of  the 
most    disastrous    floods    ever    known    in 
this  country  devastated  the  Mississippi 
valley     region.     Fed      by      its      swollen 
tributaries,   the  great   river  rose  stead- 
ily   day    by    day    at    an    alarming    rate, 
breaking    tlirough    levees   and  embank- 
ments   all    along    its    route.    From    Illi- 
nois  to    Louisiana,   a    distance    of   more 
than    600    miles,    the    terrltorv    was   en- 
cioached  upon,  more   than   2,000  pquarf> 
miles   of   land    being   inundated.    Farms 
and  towns     were     flooded,     houses  and 
factories   swept    away,    propertv    of    all 
kinds  destroyed,   train   service  crippled 
many  live.<»     lost     and     30.000     persons 
made   homeless.    The  financial  los.s  wa^ 
more      than      $10,000,000.     The      Federal 
government  and  the  Red  Cross    society 
were     prompt     with     relief     measures

Although    the   fatalities   due    to   avia- 
tion   in    its    present   undeveloped    stage 
have   been    numerous     and    distressing, 
there  has  been  no  appreciable  lapse  in 
the  interest  and   enthusiasm   connected 
with  the  problem   of  air  naviation.    On

Blonde  lOttlclmoa. 

One  of  the  most  Important  ethnolo- 
gical flnd'j  of  recent  years  is  that  mado 
by  Prof.  Stefansson  of  the  American 
Museum  of  Natural  History.  For 
many  years,  Arctic  explorers  have 
brought  from  the  frozen  north  stories 
of  a  lest  tribe  of  wliltc  people.  Ainund- 
.sen  testified  that  the  natives  had  told 
hl.'u  of  such  a  tribe,  but  he  had  never 
seen  any  member  cf  it.  In  ordor  to 
settle  the  question  of  the  existence  of 
these  unknown  people  Stefansson,  in 
assci-iatluji  with  Dr.  R.  M.  Anderson  of 
the  Fniversity  of  Iowa,  made  a  tour 
of  disiovery  Into  the  far  Nort Invest  of 
<  anada,  and  after  a  four  years'  stav  in 
the  Macken/le  ri\er  region  returned 
last  August  with  the  startling  intelli- 
gence that  he  had  solved  the  problem 
Which  had  baffled  ethnologists  for  so 
many  years.  For  months  t!io  profes.=ior 
and  his  companion  lived  with  these 
priiritlvo  pec>plc-.  who  hr;d  never  seen 
or  heard  of  white  men  until  his  party 
arrived.  They  are  a  migratoiv  tril)e. 
ciuite  unlike  the  Alaska  or  Mackenzie 
liver  Eskimos.  Stefansson  believes 
them  to  be  of  Norwegian  origin,  manv 
of  t'lem  having  fair  skins,  light  hair 
;ind  blue  eyes.  He  is  also  inclined  to 
believe  that  this  newly-discovered 
tribe  Is  Caucasian  in  type, 
perhaps,  from  the  Norsemen

The  Maya  Rmplre. 
At  the  southern  end  of  the  North 
American  continent,  in  a  remote  dis- 
trict of  Guatemala,  .Russell  Hastings 
Millward,  a  young  American  explorer, 
has  been  investigating  the  life  and 
habits  of  what  seems  to  be  the  most 
ancient  race  of  human  beings  now  in 
existence.  The  region  has  long  been 
a  mystery  to  all  Central  America.  This 
terra  incognita  was  visited  by  Mill- 
ward,  who  found  on  every  side  vestiges 
of  a  once  magnificent  empire.  He 
studied  and  photographed  the  vuins  of 
temples  and  palaces  never  before  seen 
by  white  men  and  made  a  map  of  the 
once    flourishing    Maya    empire. 

On  .Sept.  4,  I'lofeasor  E,  A.  Schaefer. 
president  of  the  British  Association 
for  the  Advancement  of  .Science,  in  a 
paper  read  before  that  body  at  Glas- 
gow, .Scotland,  advanced  an  onlnion 
which,  from  the  lips  of  sucdi  an 
acknowledged  authority,  made  a  deep 
impression  all  over  the  civilized  world. 
This  was  nothing  less  radical  and 
startling  than  that  he  was  convinced 
that  it  was  possible  to  form  life  by 
cliemical    action. 

Koble  Prize  to  American. 
While  a  large  portion  of  the  world 
was  resounding  with  the  clash  of  arms 
and  the  babel  of  political  strife.  Amer- 
ica was  able  to  record  a  victory  of 
peace  that  fixed  the  attention  of  man- 
kind. For  the  third  time  the  Nobel 
prize,  with  an  honorarium  of  $40,000, 
came  to  this  country,  on  this  occasion 
to  Dr.  Alexis  Carrel  of  the  Rockefeller 
Institute  for  Medical  Research.  Dr. 
Carrel's  experiments  during  the  past 
year  or  two  have  demonstrated  that 
It  Is  possible  to  prolong  the  life  of  the 
heart  after  It  has  been  removed  from 
the  body,  and  this  discovery  has  ex- 
cited much  speculation  in  scientific 
circles  as  to  whether  permanent  life 
may  not  be  made  possible.  The  fi^st 
American  Nobel  pr'ze  winner  was 
Theodore  Roosevelt,  in  1906.  for  his 
services  in  bringing  about  peace  be- 
tween Russia  and  Japan,  and  In  the 
following  year  Professor  A.  A.  Michel - 
son  of  the  University  of  Chicago  won 
the  honor  by  his  di.^coveries  in  physics. 
.Still  another  discovery  that  is  of 
notable  importance  to  surgery  is  the 
presence  of  that  hitherto  rarest  and 
most  costly  of  substances,  radium,  in 
Colorado  and  in  greater  quantities 
than  in  any  other  locality.  Henri 
Chagnoux,  a  French  mineralogist,  who 
has  been  making  a  search  for  the 
precious  element  for  several  years, 
made  the  discovery  on  September  23, 
and  to  him  belongs  the  credit  of  hav- 
ing added  so  materially  to  the  mineral 
development    of    the    state.

Naval    Review. 

A  repetition  o:  la«t  year's  naval 
show  in  the  Huds.ii-rlvcr,  at  New  York 
city,  on  a  still  larger  scale  than  th© 
former  exhibition,  oociirred  In  October. 
For  several  days  a  lleet  of  128  war 
vessels  of  various  kinds  lay  at  anch.>r 
in  the  river,  forming  a  line  nine  ndl?s 
in  length.  On  Oct.  iTlknd  the  following 
day,  this  fleet  was  reviewed  by  Presi- 
dent Taft  and  Secretary  of  the  Navy 
Meyer.  The  Interest  aroused  by  these 
great  naval  exhibiUons  has  beeu  so 
marked  that  it  has  been  decided  to 
make  this  naval  show  an  annual  affair. 
A  fortniglu  later,  the  battleship  New 
York  was  launched  at  the  New  York 
navy  yard.  This  vessel  is  of  the  drea-l- 
naught  type,  the  eighth  of  her  class, 
and  exclusive  of  armor  and  guns  she 
will  cost  about  56,000.000 

On  March  16.  the  hulk  of  the  battle- 
ship Maine,  raised  from  the  bottom  of 
Havana  harbor,  was  towed  out  into  the 
open  sea,  and,  after  appropriate  cere- 
monies, was  sunk.  A  week  later,  the  rij- 
mains  of  her  officers  and  crew  were 
buried  in  the  Arlington  National  cem-j- 
tery.  The  battle  shlji  Texas,  the  larg- 
est ever  designed  for  the  American 
navy,  was  launched  at  Newport  News 
on    May    18. 

Among  the  most  wldely-dlscussed 
events  of  the  latter  part  of  the  year 
was  the  step  taken  by  Andrew  Car- 
negie to  pension  those  who  have  served 
as  chief  executives  of  this  republic. 
According  to  the  announcement  made 
by  those  who  manage  Mr.  Carnegie's 
benetactlons,  a  retiring  president  is  to 
receive  an  annual  income  of  $25,000, 
and  In  the  event  of  his  de'ath  the  pen- 
sion   is    to    be    given   to    his    widow.

OTHER  NOTE- 
WORTHY EVENTS. 

•  In  April,  an  important  conference 
under  the  auspices  of  the  Men  and  Re- 
ligion Forward  Movement  was  held  in 
Nevv'  York  city.  The  object  of  this 
movement  is  to  restore  the  masculine 
element  to  the  churches  throughout 
the  country  and  by  a  combined  effort 
to  enlist  men  and  bojs  a.s  active  work- 
ers in  the  various  religious  organiza- 
tions. This  effort  appealed  strongly 
to  the  late  William  T.  Stead,  v.  ho  was 
especially  interested  in  the  department 
for  social  service,  and  had  sailed  on 
the  ill-fated  Titanic  with  the  purpose 
of  addressing  meeling.s  in  behalf  of 
the   propaganda. 

The  opening  of  the  "over-sea  rail- 
road," the  product  of  the  inventive 
genius  of  H.  M.  Flagler,  on  .Ian.  22, 
brougiit  Cuba  several  hours  nearer  to 
the  I'nited  States.  For  many  miles 
the  course  of  this  unique  railroad  lies 
over  salt  water,  and  at  several  points 
on  the  line  passengers  are  actually  out 
of  sight  of  land.  To  Mr.  Flagler 
and  his  engineer.^  has  come  the  reward 
of  success  in  the  face  of  what  at  first 
seemed  to  be  overwhelming  odd.^.  In 
their  contest  with  the  elements  steel 
and  iron  proved  to  be  efficient  allies, 
and  even  the  marl  beds  of  the  coral 
reefs  yielded  their  tribute  of  cement 
which  went  into  the  structure  raised 
far  above  tide  level  to  support  the 
rails.

July.      For   the   fifth  ^ime,    the   athletes 
of    America   seored   a    decisive   triumph, 
totaling    128   points     against      104      for 
Sweden   and   66    for  Great  Britain.    The 
great    Decathlon,    an    all-round   athletic 
event     comprising     ten     different     feats, 
was    won   by   James   Tliorpe.    an    Indian 
from    the    Carlisle    school.      The    classic 
Marathon   was  won   by   a  South   Africa 
policeman.     K.     K.     McArthur.         These 
games  closed  with  Impressive  ceremon- 
le.s.   King  Gustav  himself  crowning  the 
victors   and   awarding  the   prizes. 
The   Camorrlata. 
On  July  8,  after  a  trial  lasting  nearly 
sixteen  months,  a  verdict  was  returned 
in    the    case   against   the   Camorrists    in 
Italy,    charged    with    murder     In     1906. 
This    trial    was   remarkable   chiefly   be- 
cause   it    resulted    in    the    victory    of    a 
modern      government      over      organized 
lav.le3sne.ss.      The    Camorra,    a     secret 
society   composed  mainlv  of  the  poorer 
criminal    classes,    has    for   more    than   a 
century    furnished    many    of    the    most 
dangerous    criminals    of    Italy.      It    has 
defied   the  government,  and   by  its   for- 
eign   connections    known    as    the    Mafia 
and  the  Black  Hand  has  terrified  wide- 
ly   scattered    portions    of    the    civilized 
world.       It     required     courage,     abilitv 
and  patience  to  convict  these  criminals, 
nine   of   whom    were  condemned   to   im- 
prisonment   for    thirty    years,    and    six- 
teen others  for  from  six  to  nine  years. 
Xeiv  York  Gunmen. 
The     murder,     in     July,     of     Herman 
Rosenthal,   a   gambler   who  had   threat- 
ened  to   lay   bare    the    secrets   of   police 
extortion  in  New  York  city,  resulted  in 
an   exposure  of  the  so-called   ".^vstem" 
of   metropolitan   graft  and   of  the    law- 
less    methods    of    the    organized     East 
side    gangs    that    startled    the    country. 
The   confessions   made    by   members   of 
the   gang  connected    with   the   shooting 
and   the   evidence  given  at   the    trial   oif 
Charles*    Becker,    the    police    lieutenant 
implicated    in    the    affair,    disclosed    an 
appalling  prevalence  of  corruption.     By 
the  evidence  of  the  "gunmen"  who  sho't 
Kosentiial    at    Beckers   Instigation,    the 
police     lieutenant     was     convicted     of

GIRL  GOT  HER  FURS 

WITH  HER  OWN  GUN, 

Quincy,  Mass.,  Dec.  27. — The  young- 
est and  perhaps  the  most  successful 
woman  fox  hunter  in  the  country  is 
Helen  B.  Elcock,  and  she  is  still  a 
couple  of  years  on  the  near  side  of 
twenty.  Last  yiar  twenty-four 
and  one  black  fox  fell  victims  to 
skill  with  the  rifle,  and  she 
started  out  this  season  with 
avowed  intenlng  of  bettering 
record. 

It  all  came  about  In  a  curious 
Miss  Elcock,  like  any  other  girl,  longed 
to  be  the  owner  of  a  set  of  real,  sure 
enough  furs.  Her  father  jokingly  sug- 
gested that  the  easiest  and  quickest 
way  for  her  to  get  the  coveted  ar- 
ticles would  be  to  go  out  and  collect 
her  own  skins.  He  also  offered  to  take 
her  along  on  one  of  his  hunting  trips, 
being   an   ardent   fox   hunter  himself. 

Miss  Elcock  needed  no  second  invi- 
tation. Dressed  In  regulation  hunting 
costume  and  armed  with  a  repeating 
rifle,  she  started  off  with  her  fatiier 
and   his  pack  of  hounds. 

The  result  of  his  first  hunt  was  two 
fine  pelts,  and  subsequent  trips,  some 
of  them  made  alone,  brought  the  sea- 
son's   total    up   to   twenty-five. 

Her  fox  skins,  which  she  proudly  ex- 
hibits, have  brought  huntsmen  from 
all  over  the  state  to  view  her  trophies. 


EXPEDITION  BRINGS 

BACK  ODD  ANIMALS. 

Washington.  Dec.  27. — The  zoological 
expedition  to  t'ae  Altain  mountains,  Si-

United  States  national  museum  with 
the  Museum  of  Comparative  Zoology 
at  Harvard,  has  returned  to  the  United 
.States  after  an  especially  successful 
trip    of   about    four   months'    duration. 

It  was  the  object  of  the  expedition 
to  collect  the  mammals  and  birds  of 
the  Altai  mountain.s,  especially  the 
very  large  wild  sheep  of  this  region, 
and  in  this  respect  the  expedition  suc- 
ceeded far  beyond  expectations.  Among 
the  small  mammals  there  have  been 
found  several  new  species,  comprising 
five  rodents,  a  bat  and  a  weasel.  "The 
whole  collection  includes  about  750 
mammals  and  birds,  among  them  a 
fine  series  of  the  wildest  sheep  of  the 
Altai  region,  which  is  the  largest 
known  species  of  sheep,  with  ibexes, 
gazelles  and  other  large  game.  The 
specimens  will  be  divided  between  the 
two   institutions   Interested.

TALES  OF  THE  BARNACLE  CLUB 

Duluth  Has  Many  Old  Salt  Water  Sailors  Who  Can 

Spin  Yarns  Rivalling  Those  of  Clark  Russell — 

Story  of  Mutiny  as  Related  By 

W.  A.  Hicken. 


The  famous  Barnacle  club  of  Duluth 
is  not  In  the  "non  est"  class  yet,  even 
though  it  has  not  met  for  several  years, 
for  a  plan  is  now  on  foot  for  surviving 
members  to  meet  this  winter  and  form 
anew  the  pleasant  relations  that  the 
former  salt  sea  .sailors  who  reside  in 
Duluth  used  to  have.  Some  of  the  old 
ones  are  gone,  but  others  still  remain 
in  this  citj-  and  it  is  rather  surprising 
to  find  among  the  business  men  of  the 
city  many  of  those  who  served  before 
the  mast  and  who  also  at  some  time 
held  the  rank  of  authority  on  some 
deck   that   sailed  the   seven   seas. 

Among  these  is  W.  A.  Hicken,  for 
long  a  resident  of  this  city,  and  who  is 
prominent  here  in  business  and  fra- 
ternal circles.  He  is  a  capital  story 
teller,  and  in  connection  with  this  is 
one  of  his  tales,  related  to  him  just 
before  he  quit  the  sea  to  come  to  Du- 
luth. It  tells  of  mutiny  and  adventure, 
such  as  boys  read  about  in  ""Treasure 
Island"  and  in  Capt.  Marryatt's  novels. 

However  as  to  the  Barnacle  club,  the 
story  here  told  was  related  before  the 
club  at  its  second  annual  banquet  held 
on  Feb.  2,  1899.  At  that  time  the  offi- 
cers   and    members    of    the    club    were:

Mr.    Hicken**    Tale. 

Following  is  Mr.  Hickens  story  as 
told  to  The  Herald: 

"On  reading  the  Associated  Press 
dlpsatch  In  The  Herald  this  week  in 
relation  to  the  present  cruise  of  H. 
M.  S.  Algerine  from  Esqulmault,  B.  C. 
to  the  Pltcalra  Islands  in  the  South 
sea  to  visit  the  descendants  of  the 
crew  of  the  ship  Bounty,  who  mutinied 
on  the  high  seas  In  the  latter  part 
of  the  eighteenth  century,  I  recalled 
relating  to  the  members  of  the  Bar- 
nacle club  of  Duluth  at  the  second  an- 
nual banquet  held  Feb.  27,  1899,  the 
story  of  the  mutiny  on  the  good  ship 
Salladln,  which  occurred  on  the  high 
seas  during  the  early  part  of  the  nine- 
teenth century.  When  crews  of  ships 
mutiny  it  is  generally  brought  about 
by  reason  of  cruel  and  inhuman  treat- 
ment by  officers  or  Improper  care  and 
poor  'grub.'  Many  times  on  long  voy- 
ages In  former  days  have  seamen  been 
driven  to  desperation  by  cruel  treat- 
ment, many  Instances  being  recorded 
of  sailors  being  felled  to  the  deck  by 
blows  from  a  belaying  pin  or  a  cap- 
stan bar  In  the  hands  of  a  drunken 
or  Infuriated  officer;  and  oftentimes 
through  connivance  with  supply  mer- 
chants inferior  provisions  would  be 
furnished  at  regular  prices  to  owners, 
the  officers  getting  a  'dlvy,'  and  the 
crew  suffered  the  consequences  of  hav- 
ing to  eat  salt  horse,  musty  and 
wormy  hardtack  and  rancid  butter. 
Those  conditions  often  led  to  mutiny 
with  serious  results,  but  seldom  do 
we  hear  of  a  crew  mutining  for  the 
purpose  of  robbery  and  the  pleasure 
of  Ill-gotten  gain,  but  such  were  the 
motives  of  those  responsible  for  the 
mutiny  on  the  good  ship  Salladln.  The 
circumstances  attending  I  now  vividly 
recall. 

"In  the  early  summer  of  1879  we 
arrived  at  Halifax,  N.  S..  on  board  a 
small  brigantiner  of  less  than  200  tons 
register  called  the  Slrlus,  w,ith  a  car- 
go of  salt  from  Turks  Island,  West 
Indies.  The  crew  consisted  of  captain, 
first  mate,  second  mate  and  supercargo, 
cook  and  four  men  'before  the  mast.'  I 
appearing  on  the  articles  in  the  dual 
capacity  of  'second  mate  and  super- 
cargo.' The  cook  was  a  beautiful  spec- 
imen of  the  pure  Spanish  West  Indian 
negro,  and  was  the  proud  owner  of  an 
clegrant  fancy  velvet  sombrero,  which 
he  cherished  and  wore  with  much  more 
pride  than  do  the  women  of  today  over 
an  elaborate  Easter  creation.  Nearing 
the  coast  of  Nova  Scotia  we  encount- 
ered what  Is  almost  always  found  in 
that  locality  at  this  season  of  the  year, 
an  almost  Impenetrable  fog.  and  were 
obliged  to  lay  to  for  some  days  wait- 
ing for  it  to  lift  before  venturing  too 
near  the  land.  We  had  already  run 
out  our  distance  and  knew  we  were 
in  the  near  neighborhood  of  .Sambro 
head,  a  point  on  the  coast  near  the 
entrance  to  Halifax  harbor  and  on 
whose  rocky  ledges  the  liner  Atlan- 
tic was  stranded  some  years  before 
with  a  loss  of  a  great  many  lives. 
However,  one  morning  we  were  de- 
lighted to  see  approaching  us  through 
the  fog  a  trim  and  jaunty  pilot  boat 
attracted  to  us  by  the  sound  of  our 
fog  horn  operated  by  the  lusty  and 
well  developed  lungs  of  the  sailors, 
sending  far  Its  dismal  moan  at  regu- 
lar Intervals  from  a  vantage  point 
on  the  'fo'castle'  deck.  The  sea  was 
running  too  high  to  permit  the  pilot 
boat  to  come  alongside  so  we  em- 
barked the  pilot  by  means  of  a  line 
dropped  from  the  fore  yard  arm,  land- 
ing him  safely  on  deck.  He  Informed 
us  that  Sambo  light  bore  west  by  north 
three-quarters  north,  ten  miles.  We 
shaped  the  course  Indicated  and  with 
a  favorable  wind  on  the  starboard 
quarter  we  were  securely  moored  at  a 
wharf  in  the  harbor  nt  4  p.  m. 
Crew    Dlnoliarued. 

"The  following  day  the  crew  was  dis- 
charged and  paid  off.  The  latter  duty 
falling  on  me.  On  handing  a  discharge 
prepared  by  the  cantaln  to  one  of  the 
crew   called  Paul  Nelson  and  who.   by

the  way,  p:-oudly  claimed  relationship 
to  tlie  great  sea  lord  of  Trafalgar 
fame,  he  slated  that  he  was  not  al- 
together a  stranger  in  this  port,  and 
well  remembered  a  thrilling  incident 
in  his  life  occurring  many  years  ago 
while  serving  as  an  apprentice  on 
board  H.  M  S.  Belleraphon  at  this  sta- 
tion. He  sjDoke  with  much  feeling  and 
his  manner  aroused  my  young  curios- 
ity, and  I  said,  'TValt,  Paul,  until  I 
get  through  with  the  rest  of  the  lads, 
and  tell  m€  all  about  it.'  He  stepped 
outside  the  companion-way  and  sat  on 
the  head  of  a  mooring  bit  on  the  port 
quarter,  wiere  I  found  him  shortly 
after  in  quite  a  reminiscent  mood.  In- 
viting him  back  to  the  cabin  and  plac- 
ing a  wicker  cased  flagon  of  French 
wine  on  the  table,  I  suggested  he  pour 
out  a  libation,  drink  to  the  health  of 
his  sweetheart,  as  all  good  sailors  do, 
and  proceed  with  his  story;  which  he 
did  in  this  wise: 

"  'In  the  early  'iOs,  as  I  told  you.  I 
was  serving-  as  an  apprentice  on  board 
of  H.  M.  S.  Belleraphon  in  this  harbor, 
when  one  morning  we  were  notified  by 
the  authorl'.ies  that  a  full  rigged  fehip 
had  been  discovered  ashore  on  the 
coast  a  few  miles  east  of  the  harbor 
entrance,  that  part  of  her  sails  were 
still  set  and  matters  about  her  decks 
did  not  look  just  right.  Our  captain 
immediatelj  ordered  a  boat  dropped 
from  the  davits  and  manned  with  eiglit 
men,  in  charge  of  a  petty  officer,  di- 
rected up  to  proceed  without  delay  to 
the  scene,  iiake  an  investigation  and 
report.  They  found  the  ship  Salladln 
stranded  on  a  reef,  with  the  fore  and 
main  topsal  s  set,  the  latter  being  close 
reefed,  the  fore  and  main  top  gall'n 
staysails  loose  in  the  down  hauls,  un- 
furled as  though  lately  set.  the  spank- 
er unbent  tmd  used  as  an  awning  on 
the  main  deck;  the  balance  of  her  sails 
were  either  furled  or  unbent.  A  hasty 
examlnatlor  soon  disclosed  that  the 
ship  had  bfen  abandoned  after  reach- 
ing shore  snd  evidence  was  found  on 
many  sides  of  unusual  commotion. 
Bullet-pierced  doors  and  battered 
apartments  were  mute  evidences  of  a 
fierce  struggle.  The  boat's  crew  soon 
returned  and  reported  the  facts  to  the 
local  authoiitles.  In  the  name  of  the 
queen  a  seitrch  was  made  in  the  sur- 
rounding country  for  the  supposed  cul- 
prits, which  successfully  resulted  two 
days  afterward  in  the  arrest  in  a  barn 
not  many  miles  from  the  scene  of  the 
stranding,  ff  six  members  of  the  crew 
of  the  Salladin,  who,  on  being  brought 
to  the  city,  were  lodged  in  jail,  put  in 
irons  and  accused  of  a  gross  crime  on 
the  high  seas.  They  gave  their  names 
as  Hazelton,  Jones,  Johnstone,  Ander- 
son. Carr  and  Galloway.  After  being 
In  jail  a  few  days  the  two  latter 
showed  signs  of  remorse  and  askid 
that  the  commander  of  our  ship  be  sent 
for.  On  hi^  arrival  they  stated  that 
they  two  w^re  not  directly  responsible 
for  the  coiditions  that  were  found, 
and  If  promised  Immunity,  were  will- 
ing to  turn  queen's  evidence  and  make 
a  clean  breast  of  the  whole  affair. 
This  was  agreed  to  and  they  directly 
proceeded  to  unravel  the  tale  of  the 
terrible  tragedy. 

Turn   <laee«*ii   Evidenee. 

Tl;e    ship    Salladln." '    they    said, 

'  "had  sailed  from  Valparaiso  on  the 
Spanish  main  loaded  with  a  cargo  of 
copper  and  silver  ore,  much  of  It 
known  as  ratlve  and  almost  pure  and 
very  valuable.  It  was  consigned  to 
parties  In  Swansea.  Wales.  During  the 
time  the  cargo  was  being  taken  on  It 
was  notlce<fl  that  two  men  were  fre- 
quently seen  aboard  the  ship.  one 
somewhat  older  than  the  other,  and 
when  we  sailed  it  was  found  that  they 
had  secure<l  passage  and  were  en- 
rolled on  the  ship's  papers  as  passen- 
gers under  the  names  of  George  and 
Thomas  Fielding.  We  afterward 
learned  tha<'  they  were  father  and  son. 
We  had  been  to  sea  but  a  short  time 
when  It  was  seen  that  thy  were  mak- 
ing advances  to  certain  members  of 
the  crew,  passing  favors  In  the  shape 
of  better  tobacco,  than  was  had  for- 
ward, and  other  pleasantries.  After 
rounding  Cupe  Horn  and  getting  well 
out  in  tno  open  on  the  South  Atlantic 
ocean,  they  came  forward  with  a  prop- 
osition to  four  members  of  the  crew 
(the  first  four  whose  names  are  men- 
tioned) to  join  them  in  a  mutlnj',  mur- 
der the  captain  and  first  and  second 
mates,  and  the  elder  Fielding  being  a 
navigator,  le  would  take  the  ship  to 
a  Spanish  cr  Portuguese  port,  sell  the 
cargo,  abandon  the  ship  and  divide 
the  proceed  1.  This  was  agreed  to,  and 
on  the  first  watch  following,  the  first 
mate  was  shot  by  Fielding  and  his 
body  throT\n  overboard  by  him  and 
hla  son.  A  call  was  then  made  for 
all  hands  en  deck.  The  second  mate, 
first  appearing  through  the  compan- 
ion-way. was  shot  down  In  cold  blood. 
,\  few  moments  later  came  the  murder 
of  the  captain,  who  was  attracted 
from    below    by    the    commotion.     Both

bodies  were  Immediately  cast  over- 
board. In  neither  was  life  extinct.  In 
tlie  meantime  we  (Carr  and  Galloway), 
who  were  below  and  had  no  knowledge 
of  what  had  been  going  on,  appeared 
on  deck  and  were  seized  by  the  mu- 
tinous crew  and  told  what  had  hap- 
pened and  asked  if  we  would  join  the 
Ijand  or  die.  We  chose  the  former  and 
assisted  in  the  management  of  the  ship, 
under  the  direction  of  the  elder  Field- 
ing, who  proved  to  be  an  experienced 
navigator  and  who,  with  his  son.  were 
tho  sole  occupants  of  the  cabin,  the 
balance  of  the  -crew  remaining  for- 
ward. When  the  compact  was  com- 
plete, after  the  klling  of  the  captain. 
It  was  agreed  that  all  arms,  ammuni- 
tion and  weapons  of  every  kind  and 
nature  now  remaining  on  board  should 
be  thrown  Into  the  sea,  a  suspicion 
txisting  in  the  minds  of  the  crew  that 
Fielding  would  not  hesitate  to  kill 
them  all  when  nearing  land,  and  divide 
the  spoils  between  himself  and  his 
eon.  These  suspicions  were  well 
founded,  for  two  days  after  the  agree- 
ment to  disarm  became  effective  there 
was  found  in  the  quarters  of  the  Field- 
ing? a  brace  of  pistols  and  a  large 
bowie  knife.  When  this  discovery  was 
known  to  all  the  crew  they  decided 
that  the  Fieldings  must  be  disposed  of 
at  once,  and  it  fell  to  our  lot  fCarr 
and  Galolway)  to  do  the  deed,  which 
we  accomplished  on  the  following 
morning.  No  shooting  Irons  being 
left,  the  Fieldings  were  to  be  thrown 
overboard.  Immediately  on  their  ap- 
pearance on  deck  next  morning  they 
were  seized  by  us  and  cast  Into  tho 
sea,  the  father  first,  the  son  in  the 
meantime  pleading  for  mercy,  but  nono 
was  shown.  This  left  the  crew  with- 
out a  navigator,  but  as  they  knevr 
they  were  nearing  the  trades  it  was 
decided  to  only  keep  a  few  sails  set 
and  sail  before  the  wind,  not  knowing 
when  we  would  land.  After  working 
across  the  equator  and  drifting  list- 
lessly for  some  months  on  the  North 
Atlantic,  some  times  in  the  gulf  stream 
and  out  again,  the  ship  finally  ran 
ashore  at  the  point  indicated,  where  a 
boat  was  lowered  and  all  hands  quit 
the  vessel  on  an  unknown  coast." ' 

•■  •In  due  time  an  admiralty  court 
martial  was  convened,  the  men  tried 
and  condemned  to  die  by  hanging  on 
gallows  erected  on  the  shore,  at  nigh 
■water,  and  the  order  was  carried  into 
effect  by  officers  and  men  from  our 
ship.  Carr  and  Galloway  were  later 
released,  and  I  was  told,  shipped  on  an 
East  India  man  bound   to  Calcutta,' 

"After  Nelson  had  told  his  story,  the 
facts  were,  I  found,  nearly  as  he  had 
stated.  I  bade  him  good-bye,  and 
with  good  wishes  exchanged,  he  left 
the  deck  and  afterward  shipped  on 
the  little  Iron  ship  Roseneath.  bound 
for  Liverpool,  Eng.  A  few  days  after- 
ward, when  matters  were  all  cleaned 
up  with  the  discharge  of  cargo.  I  came 
to  Duluth.  where  I  still  remain,  but 
oftentime  my  thoughts  run  back  to 
the  many  'tales  of  the  ocean.'  of  which 
the  foregoing  is  one  of  actual  fact." 


SAYS  WILSON  FAVORS 
PHILIPPINE  MEASURE 


Congressman  Jones  Claims 

the  President-Elect  Told 

Him  So. 

Staunton,  Va..  Dec.  28. — President- 
elect Wilson  favors  a  provisional  gov- 
ernment for  the  Philippines  for  eight 
years  and  independence  thereafter,  ac- 
cording to  Representative  William  A- 
Jones  of  Virginia,  chairman  of  the 
house  Insular  affairs  committee,  who 
discussed  the  Philippines  situation 
with  him  on   the  train. 

The  president-elect  announced  mere- 
ly that  he  had  talked  with  Mr.  Jones 
about  the  "general  situation  In  tho 
Philippines."  Asked  particularly  if  ho 
had  talked  about  the  bill  being  pressed 
by  Representative  Jones  In  congress, 
proposing  a  provisional  government 
for  eight  years  and  independence  aft- 
erward, Mr.  Wilson  replied:  "Oh  wo 
talked  about  that  at  Sea  Girt  last  sum- 
mer." 

Representative  Jones,  however,  had 
no  hesitancy  in  saying  that  Governor 
Wilson  already  had  heartily  Indorsed 
to  him  the  pending  bill. 

'•We  really  don't  expect  the  measure 
to  pass  this  congress,"  said  Mr.  Jones, 
"but  it  surely  will  go  through  in,  tho 
extra  session,  and  will  be  one  of  tho 
first  pledges  of  the  Democratic  nation- 
al   platform   to  be   carried   out." 


SURE  HE  IS  THE  MAN.

Alton  Train  Bandit. 

Springfield.  111..  Dec.  28.— That  John 
Hartnett.  alias  James  Nealy,  alias 
Kyle,  an  alleged  convicted  bank  burg- 
lar, who  was  arrested  by  the  Spring- 
field. 111.,  police  last  Wednesday,  is  o"ho 
of  the  two  men  who  held  up  the  Alton 
"Hummer"  at  lies  Junction  last  Tues-

conclusive  by  the  local  police  and  W. 
S.  Cain,  chief  of  detectives  for  the  Chi- 
cago &  Alton   railroad. 

Hartnett  is  said  to  have  robbed  a 
bank  at  Hartford,  Ky..  Jan.  22,  1902.

convicted  of  the  crime  on  May  27, 
190S,  afterwards  sentenced  to  fiveVears 
In  the  Eddyvllle  penitentiary.  St.  Louis 
police  officials  assert  that  Hartnett 
was  picked  up  by  the  department  of 
that  city  several  years  ago  In  com- 
pany with  three  other  criminals.  Hart- 
nett and  his  companions  were  accused 
of  blowing  the  safe  of  a  postofflce  in 
a  Missouri  city.  The  four  men  wero 
caught  In  an  effort  to  dispose  of  a 
quantity  of  stamps  which  the  police 
claim  were  the  results  of  their  rob- 
bery.

The    Search    For   Gold. 
In    the   tarly    da.\-3   of   the   Jamestown 
colony,    tliere   was   a   gold   rush    to   Vir- 
ginia  from   England.      The   unfortunate  I 
adventurers    loaded    a    ship    with    iron ' 


creased  and  prospectors  got  up  Into  the 
foot  hills  and  even  the  mountains 
themselves.  In  January,  1859,  accord- 
ing to  government  authority,  B.  F. 
Langley  found  gold  on  South  Boulder 
creek  which  afterwards  went  in  the 
name  of  "Deadwood  diggings."  Con- 
siderable gold  was  won  there.  Some 
gold  also  had  been  found  on  Ralston 
creek,  several  miles  below  golden. 
JaokMon'M    DiMCovery. 

The  history  of  gold  mining  in  Clear 
Creek  county  began  with  the  discovery 
ot  placer  gold  in  paying  quantities  by 
Ueorge  A.  Jackson,  on  Chicago  creek, 
now  within  the  city  limits  of  Idaho 
Springs. 

Government  authority  states  that 
Jackson  made  his  discovery  in  April. 
1S.')0.  Literature  issued  bv  Idaho 
Springs  authority  states  that  It  was 
Jan.    6,    1859. 

Jackson  was  making  his  way  through 
the  mountains  when  he  saw  the  steam 
rising  from  the  hot  soda  sprinps  now 
so  popular  at  Idaho  Springs.  At  first 
he  thought  It  was  smoke  from  an 
Indian  camp  but,  after  cautious  Invest- 
igation, saw  that  It  was  steam.  Thou- 
sands of  mountain  sheep  were  in  the 
gulch   near  the  springs. 

The  people  of  Idaho  Springs  claim 
that  Jackson  found  the  first  erold  in 
the  Rocky  Mountains  and  have  a  monu- 
ment to  that  claim  and  his  memory  on 
the  spot  where  he  found  the  gold.  The 
monument  is  In  form  of  a  huge  boulder, 
set  on  a  concrete  base,  with  a  bronsse 
plate  In  the  side,  setting  forth  facts  as 
claimed  by  that  comtrjunlty.  It  may 
be  that  the  people  there  admit  the 
earlier  discoveries  but  do  not  consider 
them  as  having  been  made  "In  the 
Rocky  mountains." 

^'er.v  early  discoveries  w^ere  made  at 
Rlackhawk  and  Central  City.  Gilpin 
county.  It  was  only  a  few  miles  from 
Central  City  over  the  crest  to  the  Em- 
nlre  side  of  the  ranere,  and  hardv  pros- 
pectors soon  found  rich  paydirt  on 
eround  now  occunied  b.v  the  Conqueror. 
Pioneer.  Gold  Dirt,  Gold  Fissure  and 
other   mines. 

The  X'^pper  I'nion  or  Empire  district, 
in  which  the  town  of  Empire  now  is 
situated,  ■was  located  in  ISt^O  by  pro?- 
pe-tors  from  the  old  'Gregory  dig- 
orings."  near  «\.ntral  City.  Water 
ditches  were  constructed  and  the  oxt- 
diztd  surface  ore  was  sluiced  off  at 
fine    profit. 

Tn  May,  1S.t<),  John  Greerory  discov- 
ered the  first  gold-bearing  vein.  In 
Gilpin  county,  and  erreat  excitement  en- 
sued. At  about  the  same  time  lode 
discoveries  at  Georgetown.  Clear  Creek

were  made.  One  of  the  most  important 
veins  there  -was  found  Aug.  1,  1.S59,  by 
George   Griffith. 

In  February.  1861,  congress  organ- 
ized the  territory  of  Colorado  and  It 
was  admitted  Into  the  Union  July  4,

pyrites  (fools'  gold)  and  the  boom 
broke.  But  the  existence  of  real  gold 
must  havo  been  back  of  the  matter, 
for  Virginia  bears  it  in  paying  quan- 
tities. The  states  of  the  Appalachian 
mountains — Virginia,  North  Carolina. 
Georgia  'ind  -A^labama — have  produced 
about  $10,000,000  in  gold,  of  record.  It 
^as  tlie  discovery  of  gold  In  North 
Georgia  that  caused  the  Cherokee  In- 
dians to  lose  their  Ideal  and  beloved 
reservation  there  and  to  be  remove<l 
to  Indian  territory.  Greed  for  goM 
caused  the  lands  of  the  Cherokees  to 
ba  opened  to  white  settlement  in  1838 
under  a  lottery  plan.

momentous  discovery  of  gold  in  the

the  Anif^rlcan  river,  at  Coloma.  Bl

mountain  region,  exhibited  some  gold 
on  their  letum  to  the  Middle  West 
in  18'.7,  and  declared  that  it  -was  found 
In  the  mountains  of  Colorado. 

In  1838  W.  J.  Russell  headed  a  party 
of  nine  Georgians  to  what  was  then 
called  the  Pike's  Peak  country.  "Pike's 
Ptak  or  Bust"  originated  in  that  rush 
and  almost  every  experience  but  that 
of  finding  gold  was  encountered  by 
those  who  engaged  in  the  rush.  After

Cherry  creeks  and  other  streams  with 
small  success,  some  gold  was  found 
that  same  year  In  a  .small  gulch  lead-

Colorado's  Mineral  Belt. 

Take  your  map  of  Colorado  and  fol- 
low with  me  the  chief  mineral  belt 
In  Colorado  and  one  of  the  greatest  In 
the  world.  Start  at  Boulder,  In  the 
foothills  of  the  Rocky  mountains,  and 
then  draw  a  straight  line  southwester- 
ly to  Leadville.  Along  that  line,  lor 
eighty-five  mlle.s.  there  Is  a  mineral 
belt  from  five  to  twelve  miles  wide. 
From  Boulder  to  Gilpin  county  it  pass- 
es unbrokenly.  geoglcally.  Central 
ru't^''.''^  Gilpin  county,  is  squarely  on 
this  belt  and  is  known  as  "the  richest 
square  mile  in  the  world."  Then  In 
turn,  this  great  belt  passes  into  Clear 
Creek  countj'.  embracing  Empire, 
Georgetown,  etc.  Still  further  .south- 
west come  Argentine,  Hale  Creek, 
Geneva  Creek,  Montezuma  and  Snake 
River.  Next  come  Breckenridge,  Ten 
Mile  district  and  then  Leadville. 

Very  broadly  speaking,  the  inclosing 
rock  along  that  belt  Is  granite,  the 
foundation  rock  of  the  earth,  and  the 
ore  bodies  are  accompanied  by  por- 
phyry dikes  that  have  common  fea- 
tures in  all  the  camps  and  that  war- 
rant the  expectation  of  rich  ore  bodies 
where  said  dikes  of  characteristic  por- 
phyry occur.  There  are  many  and  lo- 
cal variations,  but  along  that  great 
eighty-five-mile  belt  Is  the  safest  and 
surest  place  in  all  Colorado  to  look 
for  gold,  silver,  copper,  lead  and  zinc 
And,  by  taking  a  few  things  for 
granted,  that  belt  really  Is  traceable 
into  the  rugged  San  Juan  country  or 
a  total  distance  of  130  miles. 

Clear  Creek  county  is  the  home  of 
huge  tunnel  enterprises.  After  oxi- 
dized ores  had  been  mined  out  near 
the  surface,  either  the  sulphides  -were 
less  profitable  to  mine  or  e.xcessive 
water  ran  up  costs,  therefore  deep  and 
lung  tunnels  were  started.  There  are 
about  fifty  of  them  tributary  to  Idaho 
hpruigs.  The  famous  Newhouse  tunnel 
IS  five  miles  Ion.?.  One  can  go  in  at 
Idaho  Springs  apd  come  out  and  up, 
by  way  of  a  shaft,  at  Central  City. 
Ihe    "Big    5"    tunnel    is    several    miles 


long.  Tliousands  of  dollars  were  in- 
vested in  this  enterprise  by  St.  Louis 
county  people.  A  reorganization  now 
is  under  way. 

Here  at  Kmpire  are  several  heavy 
tunnel  undertakings.  Some  already  are 
nearly  a  mile  long.  A  very  conserva- 
tive authority  declares  that  where  the 
starting  of  a  tunnel  has  been  war- 
ranted In  the  first  place,  a  distance 
of  at  least  2,000  feet  always  has  made 
a  paying  mine.  Depth  brings  rich  ores 
In  this  camp,  where  formation  and 
other  conditions  are  of  the  right  kind. 
1  have  seen  something  of  mining  in 
the  past  fifteen  years.  1  have  covered 
Canada  from  Lake  of  the  Woods  to 
Sudbury.  I  have  seen  the  gold  dig- 
gings of  North  Georgia.  I  was  in 
Joplln,  Mo.,  before  the  Zenith  Lead  & 
Zinc  company  ever  was  dreamed  about 
— when  the  promoter  was  wearing 
knee  trousers,  almost.  I  have  seen 
something  of  Colorado  the  Black  Hills 
of  South  Dakota,  New  Mexico,  Arizona, 
Nevada,  Utah  and  California,  to  say 
nothing  of  the  Lake  Superior  mines, 
but  the  cheapest,  best  managed  piece 
of  work  I  ever  have  encountered  is 
here  at  Empire,  less  than  five  min- 
utes walk  from  where  I  write. 
Dnluth  A  iCmpirr. 
Some  years  ago  Tepoorten  Bros,  of 
Superior  secured  some  claims  on  Eur- 
eka mountain,  within  sight  of  the 
postoffice  of  Empire.  They  finally  as- 
sociated others  wltli  themselves,  and 
three  years  ago  this  coming  January 
started  a  long  crosscut  tunnel  to  cut 
a  system  of  veins  running  from  north- 
east to  southwest,  right  over  the  apex 
of  Eureka  mountain,  in  the  name  of 
the  Duluth  &  Empire  Mining  com- 
pany. 

For  sixteen  months  only  one  shift 
in  twenty-four  hours  was  worked. 
Since  then  two  shifts  have  been  em- 
ployed. In  that  time  a  crosscut  tunnel 
has  been  driven  by  hand  labor  and 
hand  tools  for  2,000  feet,  through  solid 
granite  most  of  the  w-ay.  Tlie  tunnel  Is 
5x7  feet  In  the  clear.  Tramming  has 
been  entirely  by  hand.  It  now  takes 
twenty  minutes  to  run  out  a  car  and 
bring  it  tack.  Bvit  so  exactly  has  the 
proper  grade  been  maintained  and  so 
carefully  has  the  track  been  laid  and 
ballasted,  that  a  car  runs  out  by  grav- 
ity and  is  quite  easily  pushed  back  by 
hand. 

In  nearly  three  years'  time  not  a 
single  car  has  gone  off  the  track  in 
this  tunnel  and  not  a  single  man  has 
been   scratched   or   hurt   in   the   work. 

In  addition  to  1,965  feet  of  perfectly 
driven  tunnel,  about  300  feet  of  drift- 
ing on  veins  has  been  done  and  two 
slopes  started.  Including  tools,  dyna- 
mite, track,  cars,  timbers,  air  pipe, 
ventilating  fan,  city  water  to  run  a 
small  motor,  ore  chute  from  dump  to 
wagons,  superintendence,  etc.,  that  en- 
tire -work  has  cost  a  trifle  under  $8 
per  running  foot. 

Contractors  here  would  not  think  of 
bidding  on  such  a  job  for  less  than 
$12  per  foot.  There  are  tunnels  here 
not  nearly  so  well  done  that  have  cost 
$30   a   foot. 

I  deem  it  a  duty  and  pleasure  to  pay 
tribute  to  the  master  miner  and  Ideal 
superintendent,  who  has  accomplished 
this  great  result — Capt.  Frank  Brady, 
a  man  who  had  his  first  experience  In 
the  coal  mines  of  Hazelton,  Pa.,  and 
who  has  mined  up  and  down  Colorado 
for    twenty   years    or   more. 

The  Duluth  &  Empire  company  owns 
a  solid  block  of  mining  ground,  3,000 
by  3,000  feet,  over  200  acres.  There  Is 
a  mlllslte  of  five  acres  and  the  Empire 
water  mains  run  right  below  the  dump. 
Ther.e  is  a  downhill  haul  over  the 
wagon  road  from  the  mine  dump  to 
the  station. 

Some  of  the  richest  mines  in  Colo- 
rado, as  well  as  the  largest  ore  bodies, 
in  Colorado,  adjoin  the  Duluth  &  Em- 
pire on  the  northeasterly  side — the 
Pioneer,  Conqueror,  Gold  Fissure.  Gold 
Dirt,  Sturm  Group,  and  others.  On 
that  side,  gold  ores,  carrying  more  or 
less  copper. 

Rich  Steel  Galena. 
Adjoining  the  Duluth  &  Empire  on 
the  southwesterly  side,  the  Miller 
claim  produced  steel  galena  that  went 
84  i)er  cent  In  lead — the  richest  ever 
known  in  the  Empire  camp. 

On  tlie  southwesterly  side  of  the 
apex  of  Eureka  mountain,  the  best 
known  veins  In  this  system  bear  silver, 
lead  and  zinc  instead  of  gold  and  cop- 
per. Tlie  dividing  line  runs  right 
through  the  apex  which,  by  the  way. 
Is  9,500  feet  above  sea  level.  This 
crosscut  tunnel,  2.000  feet  long  cuts 
the  system  of  veins  about  500  feet 
west  of  the  apex  of  the  mountain. 
From  the  surface  to  the  floor  of  the 
tunnel  Is  about  700  feet  of  an  Incline, 
or  something  under  500  feet  vertically. 
When  the  drift  on  the  Columbine  vein 
gets  further  easterly,  it  will  be  about 
1.000  feet  below  the  top  of  the  moun- 
tain, and  will  give  that  depth  of  slop- 
ing ground.

This  crosscut  tunnel  not  only  has 
gained  great  depth  on  the  veins  but 
shows  that  ore  on  the  surface  persist.'? 
to  that  depth. 

The  rock  in  Eureka  mountain  that 
encloses  the  veins  and  the  porphyry 
Oikes  accompanying  them,  is  Silver 
Plume  granite. 

The  face  of  the  crosscut  tunnel  Is  in 
a  clean,  solid  porphyry,  highly  Iden- 
tical with  that  accompanying  the  big- 
gest and  best  ore-bodies  adjoining  the 
Duluth  &  Empire  on  the  northeast. 
Twenty-S3ven  feet  of  this  porphyrv, 
already  cut,  show  a  good  mineraliza- 
tion in  iron  pyrites  with  specks  and 
thin  likes  of  lead.  A  rich  body  of  ore 
may  be  close  by.  One  streak  in  contact 
with  the  granito  shows  $2.40  a  ton  in 
gold  and  silver. 

The    vein    showing    ore    on    the 
face    and    cut    at    a    depth    of   700 
was  struck  at  1,585  feet  from  the

A  month  from  now,  when  certain  work 
has  been  accomplished,  some  happy 
surprises  are  likely  to  come  to  those 
who   have   backed   this  entTerprlse. 

Fifty  tons  of  ore  have  been  taken 
out  and  half  of  that  has  already  gone 
to  the  concentrator  at  Idaho  Springs 
The  remainder  will  follow  and  a  pre- 
liminary run  made  on  the  fifty  tons 
The  concentration  charges  will  be  $1  50 
a  ton.  Railroad  freight  will  cost  50 
cents  a  ton  and  hauling  from  dump 
to  depot  will  cost  50  or  60  cents  a 
ton. 

Among  those  who  are  Interested  In 
this  mine  are  Reiner  Hoch,  P.  McDonnell, 
O.  G.  Olson  and  others  of  Duluth;  Mag- 
nus Olson  and  associates  of  Ironwood 
Mich.;  Tepoorten  brothers,  J.  p.  LeBrec 
of  Superior;  a  number  of  people  on 
the  Iron  ranges  and  several  in  Bav 
City,  Mich. 

Clear  Creek  county  has  afforded 
means  of  Investment  for  a  good  many 
Duluth  and  Iron  range  people.  The 
late  B.  G.  Segog,  B.  E.  Baker  and 
others  once  had  a  big  group  of  hold- 
ings out  here.  The  late  W.  W.  Butch- 
art  was  Interested  here  at  one  time. 
The  late  M.  Jacoby  held  valuable  prop- 
erties near  Georgetown.  The  Anglo- 
Saxon  company  vvslh  heavily  supported 
by  Virginia,  Minn.,  people,  but  the 
management  and  merits  of  the  proper-

I  would  like  to  go  into  the  scenic

which  people  are  carried,  as  ore  is 
carried  at  some  mines,  to  the  summit 
of  Sunset  peak;  Argentine  pass,  reach- 
ed by  the  highest  wagon  road  In  the 
world.  13,432  feet  above  sea  level;  the 
historic  Empire  pass;  the  rich  silver 
mines  at  Silver  Plume — many  books 
can  be  and  have  been  written  on  the 
thousand  and  one  items  of  deep  hu-

As  large  as  were  the  shipments  of 
iron  ore  from  the  Lake  Superior  region 
this  year — in  round  numbers,  48,500,000 
tons — the  outgo  in  1913  will  be  bigger 
still.  Judging  from  the  preparations 
being  made  bj-  the  mining  companies. 
The  general  tendency  is  to  increase 
production,  either  by  reopening  idle 
properties  or  increasing  working 
forces.  On  the  old  range*,  at  least, 
the  United  States  Steel  corporation  is 
not  operating  this  winter  as  briskly 
as  are  some  of  the  other  leading  con- 
cerns. This  does  not,  however,  indi- 
cate that  the  big  company  will  not  in- 
crease its  shipments  from  the  region 
as  a  whole;  on  the  contrary,  it  is  ex- 
pected it  will  send  out  materially 
more  ore  than  this  year.  This  in- 
crease will  come  from  the  Mesaba 
range;  more  particularly  from  the 
Great  Northern  properties.  The  lease 
to  these  holdings  will  be  surrendered 
Jan.  1,  1915,  in  accordance  with  notice 
given  months  ago,  and  for  this  reason 
it  is  intended  to  operate  with  vigor 
the  Hill  mines  already  developed.  No 
especial  effort  to  enlarge  production 
at  other  properties  of  the  Steel  cor- 
poration   is    therefore    required. 

On    the   Marquette    range,    the   Cleve- 
land-Cliffs   Iron   company,    the    biggest 
operator    in    the    district,    has    doubled 
Its  forces   at   the   Cleveland  Lake  mine 
at  Ishpeniln.g,  now  working  that  prop- 
erty   both    night    and    day,    and    it    is 
steadily     adding     names     to     the     pay- 
rolls at  the   Negaunee  and  Mass  mines 
at    Negaunee.       Previously,    the    Chase 
and   the    Princeton   No.    2   had   been   re- 
stored   to    the    active    list.    The    Smith 
property    at    Gvvinn    and    the    Imperial 
at  Mlchigamme,  both  also  of  the  Cleve- 
land-Cliffs     company      and      idle      for 
months,  are  being  made  ready  for  min- 
ing.  The  Imperial   produces  a   limonlte 
ore    of    non-Bessemer    grade    which    is 
In   demand  only  in   prosperous  periods. 
Its    neighboring    property,       the    Ohio, 
closed   for  months,   yields  a  product  of 
similar    description."      It    will     resume 
operations  in  the  spring,  It  Is  reported. 
The  Ohio  is  under  lease  to  the  Rogers- 
Brown    Interests.     The    Breltung    com- 
pany's mines  at  Negaunee  are  employ- 
ing   as    large    forces    as    we"re    ever    in 
the   service   of   the   corporat'on.   A   big 
shaft  is  being  sunk  at  the  Luoky  Star 
and     the    Breltung    Hematite    shaft    is 
being    deepened.       The    Volunteer    Ore 
company  and  the  Cascade  Mining  com- 
pany are  busy  in   the  Cascade  district, 
the  former  developing  and  mining  ore 
and     the     latter     opening     a     property 
which  ultimately  will  be  a  large  ship- 
per.   On    the    Menominee 
or     ten     new     mines     are 
ready     for     production, 
these   In   the   Iron   River 
the    Crystal   Falls    district   also    repre- 
sented,   as   well    as   the   Commonwealth 
field,     in     Wisconsin.     In     the     Gogebic 
country,   the  Newport  Mining  company 
of    the    Schleslnger    Interests    of    Mil- 
waukee    is     especially     active.     It     has 
shafts    sinking   at    the    Palms   and    An- 
vil   to    open    valuable    ore    bodies    and 
it    Is    operating   its    big   Newport   on    a 
vigorous    scale,     needing     additions     to 
its    already    big   working    forces    there. 
Probably    two    properties    and    perhaos 
others  will  be  added  to  the  list  of  Ver- 
milion range  shippers  next  season.  The 
new  Cuyuna  district  will  have  several 
additions  to  its  producers,  among  these 
the    Hanna    company's    Barrows    mine 
and    the    Adams   property   next    to    the 
Dcerwood.    Production    On    the    Mesaba 
will     break     all     previous     records     in 
1913. 

AVagre  Trouble  Settled. 
Dissatisfaction  among  the  550  men 
employed  at  the  Breltung  company's 
Mary  Charlotte  mine  at  Negaunee  has 
been  removed  by  the  concession  of  a 
minimum  wage  scale  for  the  contract 
miners.  Demands  that  the  night  force 
be  given  Saturday  off,  with  six  days' 
pay  for  the  five  days'  ■work  as  is  the 
custom  at  the  Jones  &  Laughlin  Steel 
company's  Rolling  Mill  property,  in 
the  same  field,  were  presented  to  the 
management  both  the  Charlotte  and 
the  Rolling  Mill  being  operated  on  the 
three  eight-hour  shifts  plan.  As  a 
conciliatory  move,  the  company  adopt- 
ed the  system  of  working  but  two- 
eight-hour  shifts  a  day,  allowing  the 
Saturday  night  crews  to  quit  at  11 
o'clock.  Instead  of  at  an  early  hour 
Sunday  morning,  with  full  pay,  as  Is 
the  practice  at  the  Negaunee  properties 
of  the  Cleveland-Cliffs  company,  the 
Steel  corporation  and  the  Republic 
Iron  &  Steel  company.  The  Mary  Char- 
lotte men  then  asked  that  a  minimum 
wage  of  $2.55  a  day  be  granted.  This 
latter  proposal  ■was  accepted  and  the 
plan  of  three  eight-hour  shifts  a  day 
was  restored.  The  minimum  wage 
agreement  means  that  no  matter  what 
the  earnings  of  a  contract  miner  may 
be  on  the  basis  of  ■work  actually  done, 
he  will  receive  no  less  than  $2.55,  while 
if  his  work  figures  out  a  larger  return 
than  this  figure  he  will  be  settled  with 
on  that  basis.  The  pay  of  the  tram- 
mers remains  at  the  present  scale  of 
$2.35. 

While  the  Breltung  Interests  are  do- 
ing the  most  of  their  mining  in  the 
Negaunee  field,  they  are  operating  the 
Baron  mine  at  Humboldt,  Marquette 
range.  The  Baron  produces  a  non- 
Bessemer  ore  of  the  hard  variety.  A 
crushing  plant  has  been  erected  and 
all  of  the  output  of  the  mine  Is  now 
put  through  It.  Nearly  all  the  hard 
ores  produced  in  the  Marquette  coun- 
try are  crushed  before  being  shipped 
to  the  furnaces.  The  Cleveland-Cliffs 
company  has  a  fine  new  plant  at  its 
Cliffs  Shafts  mine  at  Ishpeming.  The 
Lake  Superior  Iron  company,  a  sub- 
sidiary of  the  Steel  corporation,  has  a 
crusher  at  the  Section  Sixteen  property 
at  Ishpeming  and  a  similar  plant  of 
larger  capacity  at  Escanaba,  this  lat- 
ter also  treating  the  product  of  the 
Dober  mine.  Menominee  range.  At 
Negaunee  the  Cleveland-Cliffs  com- 
pany has  a  crusher  at  Its  South 
Jackson  property,  at  which  the  prod- 
uct of  both  that  mine  and  the  More 
property  at  Ishpeming  is  handled.  M. 
A.  Hanna  &  Co.'s  Richmond  mine.  In 
the  Cascade  district,  has  one  crusher 
and  is  to  Install  a  second  one.  In  order 
that  ore  crushed  still  finer  may  be 
sent   out. 

Close  EneluecrtnK  Required. 
An  Interesting  engineering  work 
will  be  accomplished  at  the  Breltung 
Hematite  mine  whoji  that  property  is 
provided  with  its  second  shaft.  Even 
though  the  new  shaft  eventuallv  will 
be  one  of  the  deepest  In  the  Lake  Su- 
perlon  region.  In  excess  of  2,000  feet, 
it  will  be  opened  both  from  surface 
and  from  underground  at  the  same 
time.  It  will  require  close  engineering 
supervision  to  keep  the  two  sections 
of  the  work  In  alignment,  but  there 
Is  no  fear  the  juncture  will  not  be 
made  with  exact  precision.  Drilling 
to  determine  the  best  location  for  the 
shaft,  with  reference  to  the  position 
of  the  ore  body,  has  been  in  progress 
for  nearly  two  years.  The  site  chosen 
is  600  feet  south  of  the  present  shaft. 
This  latter  Is  now  being  deepened  200 
feet.  From  the  new  bottom  a  cross- 
cut will  be  driven  to  the  point  to  be 
opened  by  the  new  shaft  and  raising 
will  be  started  to  connect  with  the 
sinking  from  the  surface. 

The  mine  is  now  provided  with  a 
second  shaft  and  a  second  hoisting 
equipment,  a  new  holstli^g  arrange- 
n>ent  has  been  adopted  at  the  Roll- 
ing   Mill    property.      It    !»    the    Inten- 


tion to  transport  ore  through  both 
shafts,  which  are  650  feet  apart,  and 
not  use  the  new  shaft  solely  for  the 
conyeyance  of  men  and  materials,  as 
was  first  understood.  The  new  hoist- 
ing plant  will  operate  two  cages,  one 
n  each  shaft,  while  the  ore  skips 
In  each  shaft  will  be  served  by  the 
old  engine.  The  new  shaft,  which  is 
6L0  feet  deep,  was  opened  wholly  by 
raising  to  surface.  The  Cleveland

A  prospective  shipper  in  the  Iron 
River  district  of  the  Menominee  range 
the  next  two  years  is  the  Aronson 
property  of  the  Republic  Iron  &  Steel 
company.  Half  a  dozen  drill  holes  put 
down,  some  to  a  depth  of  1,100  feet 
are  understood  to  all  bq  bottomed  In

countered in  shaft  sinking,  for  the 
reason  the  overburden  is  exceptional- 
ly heavy.  The  McGreevy  Steel  com- 
pajiy  is  adding  the  Purcell  property  to

ing even  larger  and  more  valuable 
than  surmised.  Of  especial  import- 
ance is  the  fine  grade  of  ore.  Much 
of  the  mineral,  it  is  understood,  as- 
says 60  per  cent  and  better.  It  is 
the  adjoining  section  that  the  Lon;;- 
year-Plllsbury-Bennett  interests  found 
their  big  deposit  of  ore.  Diamond  drill- 
ing is  still  in  progress  there  and  the 
extent  of  the  find  is  steadily  increas- 
ing in  magnitude.  It  is  the  predic- 
tion that  important  results  will  fol- 
low similar  exploratory  work  in  the 
nearby  Sheldon  lands,  undoj-  option  to 
the  Cleveland  Cliffs   Iron  company.

Butte,  Mont.,  Dec.  28. — That  there  Is 
no  truth  in  the  rumor  of  a  consolida- 
tion of  the  Greene  C'ananea,  Inspira- 
tion and  Miami  Copper  companies,  that 
the  general  copper  outlook  Is  bright 
and  that  Butte  is  so  good  that  he  has 
starred  to  put  more  than  $70,000  worth 
of  Improvements  into  his  hotel,  were 
the  statements  made  a  few  days  ago  by 
William  D.  Thornton,   the  mining  man. 

Mr.  Thornton  left  Mexico  two  weeks

"I  have  no

as  to  how  the  rumor 

of  consolidation  started,"  he  said. 
"Eacli  of  the  companies  is  doing  fine. 
The  Cananea  has  recently  added  some 
Improvements  to  the  plant.  At  the 
Inspiration,  In  Arizona,  a  contract  has 
been  let  for  more  machinery  and  the 
Miami  company  Is  also  making  exten- 
sive  improvements." 

Mr.  Thornton  said  that  the  guerrilla 
warfare  In  Mexico  has  not  affected  any 
of  the  larger  mining  companies,  but 
that,  owing  to  lack  of  transportation 
facilities  a  number  of  smaller  con- 
cerns have  been  forced  to  shut  down, 
as  It  is  nearly  impossible  to  get  sup- 
plies into  the  remote  districts. 

"1  find  not  only  the  copper  business 
but  all  business  prosperous,"  he  said. 
'A  number  of  manufacturing  concerns 
have  asked  for  additional  time  on  some 
of  our  orders,  which  shows  that  busi-

SMELTER  WORK 

IS  PROGRESSING 

Work  at  Calumet  &  Ariz- 
ona's Plant  Going  Ahead 
Rapidly. 

Dougla.s.  Ariz.,  Dec.  28.— Work  at 
the  Calumet  &  Arizona  company's  new 
plant  Is  keeping  well  abreast  of  the  ex- 
pectations of  the  contractors  and  there 
is  now  little  doubt  that  the  big  plant 
will  be  completed  within  or  even  be- 
fore the  contract  time  limit  has  ex- 
pired. 

The  roaster  building  has  been  com- 
pleted in  all  details.  The  sampling 
mill  is  another  section  of  the  smelter 
which  stands  ready  for  use.  The 
blast  furnace  dust  chamber,  the  steel 
work  for  which  has  been  up  some 
time,  is  now  completly  lined  with 
brick,    this   being  completed  Friday 

The  steel  work  of  the  two  big 
stacks  has  been  completed.  The  work 
of  lining  them  with  brick  has  been 
begun  and  one  of  them  Is  about  60  ner 
cent   completed   now. 

The  main  building  of  the  plant  is 
f^P^^S  "P  rapidly,  being  pronounced 
about   60  per  cent  completed. 

A    force    of    250    men    Is    now 
ployed. 


Houghton,    Mich.,    Dec.    28. — (Special 
to  The  Herald.)--The  Isle  Royale  Cop- 
per    company     has     resumed     diamond 
drilling    in    the    presumed    horizon    of 
the  Kearsarge  lode.     A  number  of  shal- 
low   holes    are    being    put    down.      The 
No.  1  drill  hole  r<!vealed  a  copper-bear- 
ing amygdaloid  of  some  promise,  which 
was   later   opened    by    surface   trenches. 
A    new    lode,    lying    approximately   700 
feet  west  of  this  lode,  was  encountered 
in  the  No.  2  drill  hole.     Neither  forma- 
tion  carries  mort    than   a    promise,    tlie 
showings    obtained    in    the    drill    cores 
being  below  average.     Recent  develop, 
nients  in  the  Isle  Royale  lode,  in  which 
the   mining  operations  of   the  company 
are  confined,  disclose  excellent  runs  of 
copper     ground     in     the    several     areas 
tapped   by   sliafts   5    and    6.      The   situa- 
tion  south    of   No     6    shaft   is   excellent. 
This  area  Is  tributary  to  the  new  No.  7 
shaft,    but   is   being   developed    through 
drifts   south   of  No.   »>   shaft  during  the 
time  No.   7  is  sinking.     The  upper  por- 
tion  of  the   new    shaft  is  still   in  over- 
burden and  progress  is  .slow.  The  ■work 
In  the  lower  sections  of  the  shaft,  con- 
sl.sting  of  upraises  from  the  third,  fifth 
and   seventh   levels,    is   rapidly   nearing 
completion.      Attention    is    also    being 
given    to    the    de\'elopment    of    the    su- 
called    Portage    bed,    a    copper-bearing 
amygdaloid  lying  a  sliort  distance  from 
I-arallel   to  the  isle   Royale   lode.     Tills 
lormation    is    beii  ^    opened    on    several 
levels     tributary     to     the    No.     2     shaft 
Drill   borings  at  several  points   on   the 
twenty-sixth     level     yielded     excellent 
cores  and   the   foimation   is  now   being 
opened  by  a  crosscut  on  that  level.  The 
mine    is    yielding    between    42,000    and 
4o,000    tons    of    rock    monthly,    with    a 
resultant  yield  of  about  700,000  pounds 
of    fine    copper,    indicating    an    average 
recovery  of  sixletn  pounds  fine   copper 
per  ton  of  rock  milled.

INSPIRATION  NOW 
SHOWING  ACTION 

Preparations  for  the  Great 
Mill   Are   Well     . 
Advanced. 

Globe,  Ariz..  Dec.  28. — Work  at  the 
Inspiration  mine,  mill  site,  roads  and 
<:oncomltant  improvements  continues 
in  a  great  arc  that  curves  from  the 
supply  tunnel  on  Miami's  west  to  the 
junction  of  the  Arizona  Eastern  rail- 
road and  the  Inspiration  spur  below 
the  concentrator  city.  Work  on  the 
mill  site  is  well  under  way,  the  excava- 
tion having  been  in  progress  now  for 
two  weeks,  the  supply  shaft  on  the 
western  edge  of  Miami  is  now  300  feet 
in  depth  and  underground  work  is  go- 
ing ahead  at  a  rapid   rate. 

The  Inspiration  Consolidated  Copper 
company's  total  development  for  the 
month  of  November  was:  Inspiration 
division.  3,650  feet;  Live  Oak  division, 
500  feet.  Between  the  Scorpion  and 
Joe  Bush  shafts  618  feet  still  remain 
to  be  drifted  through;  1,300  feet  of 
ground  still  must  be  cut  before  the 
Scorpion  and  Colorado  shafts  are  con- 
nected. 

The  main  shaft  Is  virtually  finished 
and  the  main  east  shaft  will  be  finished 
about  Jan.  1.  Drifting  to  connect  the 
main  east  and  west  shafts  has  been 
begun. 

At  the  Joe  Bush  shaft  12.000  tons 
of  ore  are  on  the  dump.  This  ore  will 
be  tapped  by  a  raise  from  below  and 
the  ore  steam  shovelled  into  the  raise 
as  Is  being  done  ■with  the  stockpile 
at  the  Miami  Copper  company's  No.  2 
shaft. 

The  80-ton  waste  pocket  at  Live 
Oak  -No.  2  will  be  completed  within 
ten  days.  From  this  waste  pocket  all 
the  "waste  of  the  Inspiration  mine  will 
be  hauled  through  the  Sulphide  tunnel 
and  used  to  build  a  yard  in  Live  Oak 
fulch.

The  Oneco  has  shifted  operations 
from  the  eleventh  level  north  to  the 
third  level  north,  "where  drifting  dis- 
closes copper  ground  of  fair  quality. 
The  drifts  south  on  the  eleventh  and 
twelfth  levels  are  still  active.  An  oc- 
casional showing  of  rich  copper  ground 
is  obtained,  but  results  generallv  are 
far  from  satisfaetory.  The  vein  is 
fairly  wide.  About  1,000  feet  of  open- 
ings have  been  made  on  the  lower 
level.  The  shaft  which  reached  a  depth 
of  1.250  feet  some  time  ago  remains 
bottomed  at  that  point.

The  Naumkeag  continues  to  confine 
all  activity  to  diamond  drilling.  The 
scene  of  activity  is  in  the  approximate 
horizon  of  the  Aslibed  lode.  Two  dia- 
mond drill  outfitji  are  in  service  and 
are  at  the  presert  time  boring  holes 
Nos.  4  and  5.  No  official  statement 
concerning  development  is  obtainable 
and  the  public  ban  little  knowledge  of 
the  results  yielded  in  the  first  three 
borings. 

Mayflower. 

The  Mayflower  has  made  a  further 
disclosure  of  the  so-called.  Mayflower 
lode,  the  development  occurring  in  drill 
hole  No.  23,  which  reached  this  now 
famous  deposit  at  a  depth  of  1,112  feet 
The  lode  at  this  point  shows  a  ■width 
of  thirty-two  feet.  Mineralization  is 
light    though    of    apparent    commercial 

frade.  The  company  will  probably  put 
own  two  more  holes  and  follow  this 
work  with  a  shaft  in  the  spring.  Much 
has  been  made  o'  the  copper  disclo- 
sures in  the  Mayflower  lode,  and  un- 
warranted statements  made  In  certain 
quarters  have  te  ided  to  boost  the 
shares  of  the  comr.any  to  several  times 
their  probable  Intrinsic  value.  How- 
ever, it  must  be  admitted  that  the  dis- 
coveries are  of  unusual  promise  and 
It  win  be  Interesting  to  follow  develop- 
ment work  by  metins  of. shaft  and  un- 
derground opening's. 

Adv«>ntare. 

The  Adventure  in  centering  attention 
to  development  work  on  the  No.  li^ 
lode.  The  drift  on  this  formation  has 
attained  a  length  of  about  125  feet,  and 
is  In  average  copper  ground.  Some 
attention  is  also  being  paid  to  lodes 
Nos.  3  and  4.  Recent  developments  In 
these  formations  are  of  no  great  Im- 
portance. The  company  is  spending 
around  $4,000  monthly  and  reports  funds 
in  the  treasury  sufficient  to  carrv  de- 
velopment work  well  into  the  new- 
year. 

WyiiBdot. 

The  Wyandot  is  sinking  a  winze  in 
the  No.  8  lode,  oj.ened  by  a  crosscut 
on  the  700-foot  level.  A  depth  of  about 
fifty  feet  has  been  attained.  The  lode 
Was  previously  drifted  upon  for  a  dis- 
tance of  several  hundred  feet,  with  re- 
sults not  altogether  satisfactory,  but 
apparently  is  the  most  promising  of 
the  several  formations  opened  in  this 
acreage.  The  ■winiie  has  been  Jn  more 
or  les.*;  copper  ground  from  the  start 
and   is   making   a   fair  showing. 


AT  THE  CHIEF 

CONSOUDATED 


Salt  Lake,  Utah,  Dec.  28. — The  con- 
struction of  a  switch,  connecting  the 
Chief  Consolidated  mine  with  both  the 
Rio  Grande  and  fJalt  Lake  railways 
win  be  undertaken  at  once.  The  sur- 
veyors for  these  roads  reported  that  It 
would  not  be  possible  to  construct  a 
switch  in  such  a  m.inner  that  the  mine 
would  have  connection  with  both  lines 
but  Manager  Fitch  has  outlined  a  plan 
which  seems  feasible.  This  new  switch 
will  put  the  Chief  Consolidated  mine  in 
shape  for  the  handling  of  a  large  ton- 
nage of  ore  as  soon  as  conditions  be- 
come normal  at  the  smelter,  making 
such    an   output  possible. 

The  November  earnings  were  $50,000 
The  main  working  nhaft  has  been  sunk 
to  a  depth  of  1,75(  feet  and  openings 
made  on  the  1,000.  1,200,  l-;400  and  1,600 
foot  levels.  In  all  about  15,000  feet 
.of  development  wcrk  has  been  done, 
and  this  development  has  been  In  en- 
tirely new  territory.  There  Is  enough 
ore  In  sight  to  Insure  earnings  for  an 
Indefinite  period,  anl  the  company  owns 
a  large  area  of  virgin  ground  yet  to 
be  prospected. 


Butte,  Mont.,  Dec.  28.— (.Special  to 
The  Herald.) — The  holders  of  Tuo- 
lumne stock  who  expected  a  New 
i'ear's  gift  in  the  shape  of  a  dividend 
will  be  disappointed.  The  property  la 
in  good  shape  and  on  the  150-ton  ship- 
ments a  day  1«  making  some  money, 
but  President  Hickey  is  going  to  ad- 
here strictly  to  his  conservative  policy 
of  having  a  good  fat  treasury  before 
disbursing  any  of  the  earnings  to  the 
stockholders.  Of  the  150  tons  a  dav  go- 
ing to  the  smelter,  one-third  is  first- 
class  ore  averaging  10  per  cent  cop- 
per, while  the  second-class  will 
nearly  4  per  cent.  Shaft  sinking  Is 
proceeding  and  a  depth  of  2,100 
has  been  reached.  On  thf  2,000- 
level  a  station  ha.s  been  cut 
crosscutting  for  the  ledge  is  in  prog- 
ress. This  point  is  expected  to  be 
reached  about  Jan.  15  when  an  impor- 
tant ore  body  is  likely  to  be  encoun- 
tered. On  the  1,600  and  1. 800-foot  lev- 
els the  ground  was  broken  and  soft, 
while  on  the  2,000-foot  level  the 
ground  is  a  hard  granite  and  the 
management  takes  this  as  an  indica- 
tion that  the  broken  ground  has  been 
passed  and  rich  ore  is  going  to  be 
opened  up  at  depth.  If  the  hopes  of  the 
fiuperintendent  are 
2. 000-foot  level,  a  rich 
be   tncountered     and 

meeting  of  the  stockholders  in  March 
the  directors  ■will  announce  the  re- 
sumption of  dividends,  but  this  is  de- 
pendent on  the  success  of  the  work 
now  going  on  at  the  2,00ft-foot  level. 
Barnea-Klnie. 
Advices  from  Kendall  are  to  the  ef- 
fect I. .at  the  ore  body  open<d  up  in 
the  North  Moccasin  mine  being  oper- 
ated by  the  Barnes-King  companv,  is 
such  as  to  give  the  management  every 
hope  of  realizing  considerablv  more 
than  sufficient  to  pay  running  ex- 
penses. The  general  average  of  the  as- 
says are  from  $6  to  $9  in  gold  per  ton. 
but  there  have  been  some  samples 
taken  out  which  run  as  high  as  $19  a 
ton.  For  the  present  the  mill  will  not 
treat  more  than  50  tons  a  dav,  but 
soon  after  the  first  of  the  vear  the 
company  expects  to  be  in  a  position  to 
handle  100  tens  a  day. 

^V««hoe  CoB)Henfmtor. 
During  the  year  a  number  of  changes 
and  improvements  have  been  made  at 
the  Washoe  concentrator  owned  bv  the 
Anaconda  company.  An  entire  section, 
one-eighth  of  the  building,  has  been 
remodeled  along  scientific  lines,  fol- 
lowing a  series  of  experiments  con- 
ducted at  the  Great  Falls  smelter  for 
the  past  four  or  five  years.  The  out- 
come of  this  Is  a  better  recovery  of 
copper  values  In  the  ore.  The  main 
change  was  the  substitution  of  Han- 
cock jigs  for  the  old  Evans  jig.«,  five 
of  the  new  methods  doing  the  work 
of  forty  of  the  old  ones.  There  has 
also  been  a  scientific  rearrangement  of 
the  Whifley  tables.  The  new  instal- 
lations have  been  tried  out  with  every 
indication  of  complete  success.  It  is 
quite  probable  that  the  seven  other 
sections  will  be  remodeled  along  the 
same  lines  in   the   near   future. 

Except  for  raising  the  launders  at 
the  reverberatories  no  radical  Innova- 
tions have  been  recorded  during  the 
year  in  the  blast  and  reverberatorv 
furnace  buildin«rs,  but  at  the  convert- 
ers a  marked  change  has  been  recorded 
in  the  way  of  a  basic  lining  of  mag- 
neslte  brick.  This  replaces  the  old 
silicious  lining  that  was  tamped  in  by 
mechanical  power,  and  waff  a  striking 
feature  noticed  in  a  tour  through  the 
plant.  The  old  lining  had  to  be  re- 
newed at  least  once  a  dav  and  some- 
times more  frequently.  The  brick  lin- 
ing now  adopted  will  last  approxi- 
matelj-  for  a   year. 

A  change  which  Is  contemplated  In 
the  near  future  is  the  installation  of 
much  larger  converters  on  the  plan  of 
the  huge  devices  developed  bv  experi- 
ments at  the  Great  Falls  plant.  One 
of  the  new  converters  will  equal  in 
capacity  four  of  the  old  and  -will  effect 
economies  that  will  contribute  large- 
ly toward  reduction  of  the  smelting 
cost. 

Pllot-Butte. 
The  PIlot-Butte  company  expects  to 
have  the  shaft  down  to  a  depth  o' 
2,000  feet  by  the  middle  of  April  when 
exploration  work  will  pe  immediately 
commenced.  In  view  of  the  fact  that 
the  property  Is  entirely  surrounded  by 
rich  producing  properties,  Supt.  Shee- 
han  is  satisfied  that  it  ■will  be  but  a 
short  time  after  the  2.000-foot  level 
is  reached  before  the  mine  enters  tlie 
producing  class. 

Bntte  A  Superior. 
It  Is  announced  that  within  a  short 
time  the  Butte  &  Superior  comjiany 
will  build  a  small  concentrator  of 
twenty-five  tons  capacity  to  be  run  by 
electricity  in  accordance  with  the  in- 
yention  of  one  Peter  E.  Peterson,  a 
graduate  of  the  Montana  School  of 
Mines.  The  young  man  has  been  ex- 
perimenting with  the  electric  smelter 
for  many  months  and  it  is  claimed 
that  after  many  changes  and  improve- 
ments in  the  small  plant  he  was  ex- 
perimenting with  he  has  succeeded  In 
demonstrating  the  success  of  the 
scheme.  It  is  claimed  that  if  the  elec- 
tric smelter  is  a  success  on  a  large 
scale  it  will  result  in  saving  from  |5 
to  $10  a  ton  for  the  company  more 
than  is  at  present  derived  from  tho 
treatment  of  the  concentrates  at  Okla- 
homa by  the  retort  method.  In  view 
of  the  fact  that  many  persons  have 
been  experimenting  with  the  use  of 
electricity  in  smelting  and  have  not 
met  with  much  success  the  building 
of  a  small  plant  to  test  out  the  Peter- 
son method  will  be  watched  with  much 
interest. 

RaderHburgr  Railroad. 
Although  the  work  of  constructing 
the  Radersburg  railroad  has  not  been 
resumed.  It  is  announced,  that  about 
the  first  of  the  year  track  laying  will 
be  started  and  completed  earlv  in  Feb- 
ruary. All  the  rails  are  on  the  ground 
It  is  claimed  that  the  money  necessarv 
to  complete  the  road  has  been  sub- 
scribed. 

Eaut  Butte. 
It  Is  stated  that  early  In  the  new 
year  the  East  Butte  company  will 
somewhat  Increase  its  output,  bringing 
the  production  each  month  up  to  about 
1.250,000  pounds.  The  company  for  the 
last  several  months  has  been  earning 
a  handsome  amount  over  and  above  all 
expenses  and  the  ore  reserves  have 
been  increased  considerably,  while  the 
grade  of  ore  Is  better  than  any  vet 
shipped  from  the  mine  to  the  smelter. 
Bradley  Plant  a  Sureest*. 
The  Bradley  plant,  so-called,  erected 
at  Anaconda  for  the  extraction  of  cop- 
per ores  from  the  slimes  about  the 
smelter.  Is  now  said  to  be  working 
very  satisfactorily.  There  are  millions 
of  tons  of  slimes  piled  up  around  the 
Washoe  smelter  and  when  Charles  S.  ~ 
Bradley  had  demonstrated  the  success 
of  his  process  a  number  of  prominent 
New  York  capitalists,  after  making  an 
arrangement  with  the  Anaconda  com- 
pany, erected  a  plant  in  Anaconda  for 
the  treatment  of  the  slimes.  For  many 
months  the  mill  was  worked  along 
with  only  a  fair  degree  of  success,  hut 
changes  and  improvements  were  made 
from  time  to  time  as  experience  waa 
gained  and  today  the  plant  is  reported 
to  be  practically  a  success  and  doing 
all  that  the  Inventor  has  claimed  for  It.

from     the    Kast    to    "West    Duluth    this 
winter. 

A  number  of 
chiss  liave  been  built  at  West  Duluth 
during  the  past  year  north  of  Grand 
avenue.  One  of  the  homes  planned  tor 
the  coming  year  for  a  new  West  l>u- 
luth  residence  is  a  house  to  be  erected 
at  Fifty-sixth  avenue  west  and  Sixth 
street  for  Walter  Evered  of  the  Na- 
tional   Iron    Works.      A    local    architect 

,  is    taking    figures.      The    cost    will    be 

'  16.000. 

A  big  transfer  of  Oneota  property  Is 
said  to  have  consummated  during  the 
past  week,  wliereby  the  steel  cortjora- 
tion  took  over  the  ball  park  grounds 
for  property  to  be  used  In  the  con- 
struction of  the  new  ore  dock.  The 
rumor  of  the  deal  Is  denied  by  the  ball 
park  lease  holders. 

West  Duluth  and  Oneota  sales  which 
have  been  negotiated  during  the  past 
week   are   as   follows: 

Davis  Adams,  West  end  printer,  dis- 
posed of  two  properties.  For  $5,000,  he 
sold  a  frontage  of  thirty-three  and  one- 
third  feet  at  the  southeast  corner  of 
Thirty-eighth  avenue  west  and  Grand 
avenue  to  Walter  A.  Nichols.  To  Ar- 
thur T.  Wilklns,  he  sold  a  house  and 
25-foot  frontage  on  the  upper  side  of 
Grand  avenue  between  Thirty-seventh 
and  Thirty-eighth  avenues  west.  The 
consideration  was  $2,800. 

Warren  E.  Strong,  this  week,  trans- 
ferred to  Amanda  Almquist,  for  $1,050, 
a  house  and  25-foot  property  on  the 
east  side  of  Sixty-first  avenue  west 
between  Gosnold  and  Bristol  streets. 
Walter  A.  Swanstrom,  this  week, 
sold  a  frontage  of  fifty  feet  on  the 
upper  side  of  Grand  avenue  between 
Fortv-eiglith  and  Forty-ninth  avenues 
west  to  John  Olson   for  $1,000. 

*  •       « 

Operations  at  Gary  still  continue  to 
hold  considerable  attention.  While 
sales  have  not  been  very  brisk  there 
has  been  a  good  tone  to  the  inquiry, 
according  to  E.  W.  Lyons  of  the  Home 
Realty  company,  one  of  the  operators 
there.  Mr.  Lyons  disposed  of  two  lots 
there.  H.  H.  Peyton,  for  Watson  S. 
Moore,  sold  three  and  A.  W.  Kuehnow 
closed  two  sales. 

Mr.  Kuehnow  has  been  buying  up 
considerable  property  to  be  put  on 
the  market  at  Gary  in  the  spring.  He 
advises  that  conditions  are  most  pros- 
perous there  and  that  the  outlook 
could  not  be  better.  A  large  force  of 
men  is  now  employed  in  the  construc- 
tion of  the  new  pumping  plant.  Ten 
thousand  square  yards  of  concrete  are 
being  used  in  the  con.struction.

Of  special  Interest  in  building  cir- 
cles Is  tho  announcement  made  public 
this  week  by  the  Duluth,  Missabe  & 
.Northern  railroad  of  the  construction 
of  what  promises  to  be  the  largest  ore 
dock    in    the   world.      It   will   be    known 


as  Dock  No.  E,  and  will  be  built  to 
the  west  of  Dock  No.  4  at  Oneota. 
Providing  the  timber  can  be  secured, 
pile  driving  work  will  be  prosecuted 
during  the  corning  winter.  At  any 
event.  It  is  figured  to  have  the  new 
dock  go  into  commission  some  time 
during  1^14.  It  will  be  of  concrete 
and  steel  and  will  cost  about  $2,750,- 
000.  The  storage  capacity  will  be  116,- 
000  cross  tons.  The  approach  will  be 
a  half  mile  In  length  and  the  dock 
proper  2.300  f«ret  long.  It  will  be  66 
ffet  In  width  and  SO  feet  above  the 
viater.  The  dock  vill  have  384  pockets, 
each  with  a  capacity  of  300  tons. 
Electricity  will  be  used  In  its  oper- 
ation. The  steel  for  the  dock  will  not 
be  obtainable  until  the  third  quarter 
of  1913. 

•  •  • 
Building  permits  have  been  slow  to 
come  into  tne  office  of  the  city  build- 
ing inspector  under  the  requirements 
of  the  new  housing  code.  The  board 
of  health  must  approve  all  plans  and 
check  them  as  to  meeting  the  demands 
of  the  ordinance  as  to  light,  space  and 
ventilation.  SoTiewhat  of  an  education- 
al campaign  will  necessarily  have  to 
be  conducted  among  builders  and 
architects,  it  Is  thought,  in  order  to 
facilitate  a  siiooth  operation  of  the 
ordinance.  In  view  of  this  fact  it  Is 
expected  that  the  ordinance  will  ap- 
pear to  hold  bfick  operations  during  the 
next  few  weeks.  During  the  present 
week  only  on<}  permit  was  taken  out. 
It  was  Issued  to  Gustafson  &  Olson 
and  authorized  the  erection  of  a  $3,.'>00 
brick  veneer  dwelling  house  on  Fourth 
street,  between  Twentieth  and  Twenty- 
first  avenue  w-est.

tinue brisk.  This  week  the  Boston 
Store  proprietors  leased  the  southwest

street  on  a  ffty-year  term.  A  new 
home  for  the  Boston  Store  will  go  up 
there.     It  will  cost  $50,000. 

The  Morton  Salt  company  has  under

room, cafe,  reijait  shop,  boat  stalls,  etc. 
Plans  have  been  drawn  by  Architect  F. 
E.  Johnson.  ^..     ^      v, 

J.  O.  Bach  Superior  architect,  has 
been  engaged  to  draw  plans  for  the

to  be  discriminatory  and  unreasonable

a  decision  In  the  case  of  the  state

defendant  was  prosecuted  in  the  mu- 
nicipal court  for  renting  out  the  third

as  a  tliree-story  frame  building  or  a

R.  M.  HUNTER  &  CO., 

E.\clians;o  Biiildins:, 


An  enjoyable  Christmas  tree  pro- 
gram was  held  Thursday  evening  by 
the  Duluth  Architectural  club  members 
at  the  club  rooms,  210  West  First 
street.  D.  C.  McI-«od  of  Crane  &  Ord- 
way,  acted  as  master  of  ceremonies 
and  distributed  presents  from  the  tree 
to  the  various  architects,  making  a 
pretty  speech  with  each  gift.  Bagpipe 
.Selections    were   furnished   bv  A.    Mow- 

Liay  and  several  shori:  addresses  were 
given  by  the  members.  W.  J.  Sulli- 
van was  In  charge  of  the  refreshment 
c(  unter,  which  was  arranged  for  the 
members. 

The  new  syllabus  for  the  coming 
three  months  is  being  prepared  unci 
will  be  announced  within  the  rie.vt 
weelc. 


The  news  tliat  the  Soo  Line  will 
build  to  the  Pacific  coast  and  that  U 
will  get  Into  Montana  next  year,  is 
of  the  utmost  importance  to  Duluth.  It 
is  far  more  Important  than  appears 
on  the  surface,  for  It  means  that 
eventually  Duluth  will  be  the  principal 
terminus  of  a  coast  road,  and  one  of 
the  liveat  roads  in  the  country  at  that. 

The  Soo,  during  the  past  five  years, 
has  spent  more  than  $20,000,000  to  get 
into  Duluth  and  now  has  four  lines 
in  here.  It  is  making  Duluth  Its  prin- 
cipal point  for  sliipments  to  and  from 
various  parts  of  the  country  here- 
abouts, and  is  now  in  the  midst  of 
condemnation  proceedings  to  establish 
a  cut-off  from  Lawler,  so  that  It  will 
have  a  direct  line  into  Duluth  from 
the  Northwest,  and  will  also,  then, 
have  a  practically  direct  line  through 
Duluth  from  Winnipeg  to  Chicago. 

All  of  these  developments  mean  a 
great  deal  for  Duluth,  but  the  fact 
tliat  the  road  will  build  through  to 
the  coast  Is  the  most  important  of  all. 
This  morning  a  man  connected  with 
another  railroad  and  for  that  reason 
does  not  want  his  name  mentioned,  said 
about  the  Soo: 

"I  don't  think  Duluth  people  quite 
realize  Just  what  this  coast  extension 
means.  Tlie  Soo  will  not  have  the 
most  direct  route  from  this  part  of  the 
country  to  the  Pacific  coast,  hut,  with 
the  new  territory  tapped,  and  Duluth 
as  its  eastern  important  terminus,  it 
will  mean  markets  for  this  section  of 
the  country  and  consequent  growth  and 
importance.  I  really  believe  that  with 
the  development  the  railroads  in  gen- 
eral are  permitting  Duluth  to  make 
she  should  soon  be  the  great  wholesale 
center  of  the  Northwest,  regardless  of 
how  much  of  a  start  the  Twin  Cities 
have.  Duluth  will  be  the  terminus  of 
the  Soo's  coast  road  in  fact  if  not  in 
name,  and  I  would  not  be  surprised 
if  In  a  few  years  it  became  so  in  name 
as  well."

PULFORD,  HOW  J 


WATERWAYS  DEPEND 
UPON  TERMINALS 


Of  greatest  Importance  to  tlie  reha- 
bilitation of  waterways  of  the  United 
States  Is  the  question  of  terminal  fa- 
cilities, writes  Hubert  Bruce  Fuller  in 
the       January       Century,       discussing 

"American  Waterways  and  the  'Pork 
Barrel'."  The  national  waterways  com- 
mission, of  which  Senator  Theodore  E. 
Burton  of  Ohio  is  chairman,  has  made 
a  detailed  study  of  the  problem.  In  its 
final  report,  recently  suljmitted  to  con- 
gress, the  commission  says: 

"I'ndoubtedly  the  most  essential  re- 
quirement for  the  preservation  and  ad- 
vancement of  water  transportation  is 
the  establishment  of  adequate  termi- 
nals properly  controlled.  Under  pres- 
ent conditions  tlie  advantage  of  cheap- 
er transportation  which  the  waterways 
afford  is  largely  nullified  by  lack  of 
such  terminals.  •  ♦  •  Private  interests 
control  nearly  all  the  available  water- 
front in  this  country.  *  *  •  This  rail- 
way control  of  terminals  is  one  of  the 
most  serious  obstacles  to  the  develop- 
ment of  water  transportation,  for  the 
control  of  tiie  terminal  means  practi- 
cally t'ne  control  of  the  route.  An  in- 
dependent boat  line  has  small  cliance 
of  success  where  it  is  denied  tiie  use  of 
docks  and  terminal  facilities  or  is  re- 
quired to  pay  unreasonable  cliarges  for 
their  use.  The  high  terminal  charges 
at  many  of  our  ports  make  it  impos- 
sible for  small  boat  lines  to  enter  at 
all.  The  commission  believes  that  the 
proper  solution  of  tl:is  terminal  ques- 
tion is  most  vital  to  the  future  of  wa- 
ter transportation." 

The  railroads  of  the  United  States 
have  already  encroached  on  these  to 
the  very  limit  of  their  possibilities. 
The  terminal  sites  along  all  our  large 
rivers,  such  as  the  Mississippi,  the  Mis- 
souri and  the  Ohio,  are  virtually  all  oc- 
cupied by  the  railroads.  The  city  of 
Philadelphia  furnishes  a  concrete  ex- 
ample. Tlie  maritime  trade  at  that  port 
is  almost  entirely  controlled  by  rail- 
road companies,  which  own  a  large 
portion  of  the  water  front,  or  by 
leases  occupy  nearly  every  available 
wharf  property  belonging  to  the  city. 
Boats  are  unable  to  secure  dockage  fa- 
cilities for  loading  and  unloading  their 
freight.  .The  situation  can  best  be  com- 
pared to  the  Idea  of  building  a  high- 
way at  the  expense  of  the  people  and 
then  p(?rinitting  an  individual  to  erect 
a  toll  gate  at  each  end  and  charge  a 
fee  from  anyone  attempting  to  vise  it. 
It  is  manifest  that  the  right  of  land- 
ing and  embarking  ouglit  to  suffer  no 
greater  legal  obstructions  than  the 
right  of  sailing  the  rivers  themselves. 
Two  cities  of  the  United  States  have 
undertaken  to  meet  this  problem.  .San 
Francisco  furnishes  an  excellent  ex- 
ample of  the  efficiency  and  economv  of 
the  municipal  ownership  and  operation 
of  docks.  At  that  port  a  charge  of  5 
cents  a  ton  Is  made  for  loading  and 
unloading  any  and  all  vessels,  while  at 
New  Orleans  the  rate  Is  a  trifle  over  6 
cents  a  ton. 

Belgium  possesses  the  most  perfect 
system  of  dockage  and  terminal  facili- 
ties in  the  world.  All  termini  belong 
to  the  state.  They  are  provided  with 
I  modern  warehouses,  rolling  hvdraullc 
and  electric  cranes,  and  ample  side- 
tracks for  loading  and  unloading  boats 
direct  from  railroad  cars. 

The  time  has  come  when  the  United 
States  must  adopt  some  definite  policy 
for  securing  terminal  and  wharfage 
facilities  for  boat  lines.  Several  meth- 
ods have  I>een  suggested.  It  has 
been  proposed  that,  in  granting  river 
and  harbor  appropriations,  preferenre 
sliould  be  given  to  communities  will- 
ing to  co-operate  with  the  government 
in  providing  terminal  farilltles.  More 
effective  would  be  legislation  to  com- 
pel the  railroads  or  other  dock  owners 
to  share  them  with  steamship  com- 
panies. Also  tlie  docks  might  he  con- 
demned for  public  use  under  suitable 
regulations.  In  any  event  American 
municinallties.  in  order  to  prevent 
monopoly,  nui.^t  either  own  their  water 
terminals  or  regulate  them.

After  Jan.  1. 

Officials  of  the  Canadian  Northern 
and  the  Omaha  roads  are  arranging 
schedules  today  for  the  beginning  of 
business  between  the  two  roads,  which 
is   due   to  begin   on  Jan.    1. 

On  that  date  the  freight  and  accom- 
modation trains  of  the  Canadian  road 
will  begin  operating  from  the  down- 
town freight  depot  of  the  Omaha. 
Since  the  first  of  the  month,  when  the 
road  first  began  running  trains  into 
and  out  of  Duluth,  operations  have 
been  conducted  from  the  West  Duluth 
yards    onl.v.

Minneapolis,  Minn.,  Dec.  28. — That 
Newman  Erb  and  his  associates  have 
an  option  upon  the  Green  Bay  &  West- 
ern railway,  was  the  statement  here  of 
W.  G.  Bierd.  vice  president  of  the  Min- 
neapolis &  St.  Louis  railway,  of  which 
road  Mr.  Erb  also  Is  president.  Al- 
though Mr.  Bierd  stated  that  Mr.  Erb, 
with  associates,  also  owned  the  Ann 
Arbor  road  and  t!ie  Ann  Arbor's  Lake 
Michigan  car  ferry  lines,  the  former 
denied  that  the  Minneapolis  &  St.  Louis

NEW  EQUTPMENt 

TO  COST  MILLIONS. 

It  has  been  announced  that  the 
Northern  Pacific  road  has  ordered  for 
delivery  as  soon  after  Jan.  1  as  possi- 
ble, 110,000,000  worth  of  equipment. 
The  severe  car  shortage  of  the  past 
season  and  the  growing  indications 
that  there  will  be  still  further  short- 
ages caused  the  ordering  of  the  equip- 
ment. The  order  includes  4.000  box, 
flat  and  refrigerator  cars  and  several 
locomotives. 


London,  Dec.  28.— In  spite  of  the  fact 
that  lie  has  a  long  purse  to  dip  into — 
at  the  expense  of  his  loving  subjects — 
the  king  of  England,  like  the  rest  of 
us.  is  feeling  poor  after  Christmas. 
1  he  list  of  folk  to  whom  King  George 
has  to  make  presents  is  long,  and  by 
far  the  most  costly  of  the  gifts  that 
figure  in  it  are  those  that  the  king 
bestows  each  year  upon  his  fellow 
monarchs  of  Europe.  Every  Christmas 
a  regular  Intercliange  of  gifts  takes 
place  among  all  the  reigning  Euro- 
pean  sovereigns. 

One  of  the  last  things  the  king  did 
before  he  left  town  to  visit  Welbeck 
Abbey,  which  the  Druce  claimant  tried 
so  hard  to  get  away  from  the  Duke 
of  Portland,  was  to  choose  his  little 
remembrances  for  his  fellow  sover- 
eigns, and  these  were  packed  by  the 
carpenter's  staff  at  Buckingham  pal- 
ace. Packed  with  a  care  and  disi^fe- 
gard  of  exi>ense,  too,  such  as  are  ex- 
pended on  few  gifts,  even  tho.se  of  roy- 
alty, each  article  being  placed  in  a 
specially  made  mahogany  case  lined 
with  gold  paper;  this  and  an  exciuls- 
itely  soft  ?nci  beautifully  scented  kind 
of  cotton-wool  being  the  only  mate- 
rials used  in  the  packing. 

PickluK  Oat  the  Gifts. 

The  king  picks  out  his  gifts  from  a 
huge  number  of  articles  of  different 
kinds  which  are  sent  from  different 
shops  in  the  fasiilonable  West  end  of 
Lt)ndon  to  Buckingham  palace  about 
a  month  before  Christmas.  This  year's 
assortment  included  solid  gold  cigar 
boxes,  elaborately  and  expensively 
bound  books,  a  large  selection  of 
jewelry,  manj-  varied  pieces  of  thp 
most  valuable  china,  walking  sticks, 
gold-mounted  amber  pipes,  and  no  end 
of   other    costly    tilings. 

The  king's  present  last  year  to  the 
emperor  of  Germai»y  was  a  gold  cigar- 
box,  with  the  emperor's  Initials  on  the 
cover  In  diamonds,  surmounted  by  the 
Imperial  crowd.  This  box  cost  exactly 
$1,000.  To  the  czar,  In  1911.  King 
George  gave  an  Ivory  walking  stick 
with  a  crooked  handle  of  the  finest 
24-carat  gold.  This  stick  had  rather  a 
curious  history.  It  was  bought  from  a 
dealer  in  rare  antiquities  and  works  of 
art  by  a  mem.ber  of  the  royal  house- 
hold on  behalf  of  the  king,  and  a  little 
while  after  the  discovery  was  made 
that  the  stick  had  once  belonged  to 
Peter  the  Great  of  Russia.  King  George 
decided  on  the  spot  to  present  It  to 
the  head  of  the  present  ruling  house 
of  Russia,  and  accordingly  sent  it  as  a 
Christmas  gift  to  the  czar,  who  was 
vastly  pleased  to  get  so  interesting  an 
heirloom. 

King  George  also  sends  a  valuable 
piece  of  Jewelry,  such  as  a  diamond 
brooch  or  a  jeweled  bracelet  to  the 
consort  of  each  sovereign.  Such  a  pres- 
ent, by  the  way,  is  sent  in  the  name  ot 
both  the  king  and  queen,  but  a  gift 
for  a  monarch  le  sent  In  .  the  king's 
name  only.  To  each  present  a,  card  Is 
attached,  on  which  are  printed  the 
words,  "With  greetings  from  George 
R.   and   L" 

The  king  devotes  a  whole  evening 
early  In  December  to  picking  out  the 
gifts  which  are  to  g-ladden  the  hearts 
of  his  fellow  sovereigns.  .Ml  the  cost- 
ly articles  that  have  been  sent  to  Buck- 
ingham Palace  on  approval  are  set  out 
on  two  tables  In  the  bow  room  on  the 
first  floor,  and  their  total  value  is 
ea.«Ily  up  in  the  hundreds  of  thousands 
of  dollars.  One  of  the  king's  secretaries 
is  at  his  elbow  when  he  makes  his 
round  of  the  tables,  and  as  each  pres- 
ent Is  selected  the  secretary  writes  on 
a  card  the  name  of  the  monarch  to 
whom  it  is  to  be  sent  and  lays  the 
pasteboard    beside    the    selected    gift. 

About  ten  days  before  Christmas  two 
royal  me.isengers  left  Buckingham  pal- 
ace to  convey  the  presents  to  their  Il- 
lustrious addresses.  Meanwhile,  the 
remainder  of  the  things  sent  to  the 
palace  on  approval  were  returned  to 
the  various  tradesmen  who  sent  them, 
and  those  that  were  kept  will  be  paid 
fur  at  the  end  of  the  month,  when  the 
ordinary  household  accounts  are  set- 
tled.

Instructing  Section  Foremen. 

Sandstone,  Minn.,  Dec.  28. — The 
Great  Northern  Is  instructing  the  sec-

how  to  take  care  of  a  locomotive  when 
laid  up  In  order  that  they  will  be  able 
to  care  for  the  locomotives  when  It  Is

of  Trade  today,  stated  that  the  plow- 
ing in  tbal  part  of  the  state  during 
the  fall  was  not  done  so  extensively 
as  usual,  and  that  about  30  per  cent 
of  the  usual  fall  plowing  had  been  left 
over  until  the  spring.  If  there  is  a 
fairly  early  spring  next  year,  he  thinks 
the  farmers  will  catch  up  all  right. 
Dr.  Ntukoin  owns  a  farm  near  Ada 
and  therefore  keeps  in  close  touch 
with  conditions  of  agriculture  in  that 
section.  He  said  the  principal  grains 
raised  in  that  section  were  wheat, 
oats  and  barley.  He  did  not  think  the 
farmers  would  sow  nearly  so  much 
barley  next  spring,  as  the  price  has 
been  so  low.  He  is  inclined  to  believe 
that  there  will  be  large  plantings  of 
corn  and  potatoes  next  year.  They 
will  raise  corn  largely  for  the  purpose 
of  feeding  it  to  cattle  and  hogs,  be- 
lieving they  can  make  a  good  profit 
in    that    way.    on    account    of    the    high 

prices  of  meats. 

•     •     • 

Robert  Thorn.  manager  of  the 
Thorn-Arndt  Grain  company's  elevator 
at  Jessie,  Griggs  county.  North  Da- 
kota, a  visitor  on  the  Duluth  Board 
of  Trade  today,  stated  that  farmers  of 
that  part  of  the  state  did  not  get  more 
than  about  half  their  usual  fall  plow- 
ing done  this  year.  "There  will  be 
so  much  spring  plowing  to  be  done 
next  year,"  said  Mr.  Thorn,  "that  I 
think  there  will  be  a  great  decrease 
in  the  acreage  of  wheat,  for  wheat 
has  to  be  planted  earlier  than  most 
other  grains.  1  also  think  the  farm- 
ers will  plant  much  less  barley,  as  It 
has  not  been  bringing  them  a  good 
price.  They  will  probably  plant  oats 
heavily.  Oats  are  rather  cheap,  but 
they  pay  better  at  present  prices  than 
barley.  I  think  there  will  be  a  big 
Increase  In  the  raising  of  corn  and  po- 
tatoes. Diversified  farming  is  getting 
to  be  more  and  more  popular  In  our 
region.  The  corn  will  be  u.?ed  to  feed 
stock.  Meat  Is  high  and  farmers  in 
our  section  are  going  to  take  advan- 
tage of  it  and  raise  all  the  cattle  they 
can."

The  market  emerged  from  its  leth- 
argy and  went  down  sharply  when  lib- 
eral selling  orders  made  their  appear- 
ance in  Steel,  Reading  and  Amalga- 
mated, all  of  which  lost  about  a  point. 
Canadian   Pacific  yielded  2  points. 

The  market  closed  heavy.  Finding 
that  there  was  no  demand  for  stock.s, 
bear  traders  made  an  attack  agam.^i 
some  of  the  prominent  Issues.  Little 
indication  of  support  was  sliown  and 
the  market  went  down  sharply  in 
quarters  with  the  specialties  most 
fected.  Weakness  of  Steel  had  a  di;< 
spiriting  effect  upon  the  general 
ket,  and  foreign  selling 
Pacific  was  a  factor  in 
road   list.

CONDITIONS    POINT  TO  THE    FACT  THAT 

DURING  THE  YEAR  OF  1013  A  6REAT  DEAL 

OF  MONEY  WILL  DE  MADE  IN  MINIH6 

DY  PEOPLE  OF  THE  NORTHWEST. 

I  point  to  A.  B.  Wolvln'6  big  new  prop<^Itlon  back  ©'"l*  ^"Jf"JJ?i 
smelter,  namely,  the  Bundy  Green  Hill.  Here  1«  »  P'«P«Jf„  **J5  ^^ 
overlooked  by  tb«  experts  of  Butte,  but  tbe  minute  Mr.  Wolvln  «?t^ 
trol  and  work  wafl  started  the  whole  Wt-sUrn  mining  world  b^mc 
astounded,  for  as  soon  as  the  deal  was  closed  Patsy  Clark  «'  Spokanj 
started  out  to  t<«t  the  Bullwacker.  He  gave  seven  minerg  a  »?»««  "J^ 
these  men  started  a  regular  quarry  and  began  to  ship  «'«  »®  <«^  ""*" 
mont  smelter.  Iteturns  came  back  in  a  big  way  and  "V'^HjST^n?  o^nlll 
on  their  way  to  wealth  with  a  lease  that,  I  "^^'T^Jj'  J?  ?**^„X  Gr^S 
for  almost  a  vear.  This  lias  absolutely  proven  Mr.  Wolvin  s  Bundy  oreen 
Hill  In  my  esUmation,  Mr.  Wolvin  has^^one  of  the  greatest  *;«PP«;  Pf^P; 
frlies  in  this  country,  for  he  has  exposed  ore  to  the  «i";-'f^:Ll***^^„7mJci 
richer  than  the  Builwai^^ker;  yes,  up  to  58  per  cent  eopi>er,  ^^^J^^ 
of  these  ores  should  be  treated  and  put  on  the  market  at  5%c  per  pound. 

LOOK  AT  THE  SILVER  BOW 

Controlled  by  I.  Frelmuth  and  associates,  rieht  in  B»"^'  «»"^'^;"«  ^jl 
about  S27  acres.  This  is  a  mammoth  proposition  «*»»»  thouf^ands  and 
thousands  of  fet  t  of  vein  system.  Work  hai^  Ikhmi  .'Started  in  a  W K  w a j  , 
shaft  Is  down  70  feet;  equipment  InstaUcd  complete  «\»**^worWpg,  and 
they  expect  to  liiive  t>haft  down  to  the  300-foot  level  by  the  ••***<»  *f"'^'^"; 
Here  is  a  property  that  Duluth  i>eople  should  take  seriously,  for  It  may 
develop  into  one  of  the  very  greatest  proi>erties  in  Butte.         ^ 

They  call  th.'  m>w  company  Butte  AL-  Zenith  City,  while  Mr.  WOlvin  s 
company  is  called  Buttc-Diiluth  MiniuR  Company.  Duluth  people  also 
Iiavo  another,  the  Itainbow.  whicli  is  Ix'low  tlie  Butte  &  Superior,  ana 
carries.  I  understand,  the  Black  lUnk  ledRc,  and  th^y  have  some  agree- 
ment with  the  Butte  &  London,  which  property  carries  some  of  the  big 
letlgcs  from  Butte  Hill.  Think  of  the  wealth  that  should  be  brought 
to  Duluth  by  these  three  great  new  properties.  Duluth  men  are  wide- 
awake, and  this  fact  Is  well  known  hi  Butte,  Montana,  which  I  belie\e 
the  greatest  mining  camp  in  the  world.

The  holidav  tone  of  the  market  shows  signs  of  letting  up.  Con- 
siderable inquiry  and  bids  have  been  in  the  market  lately.  There  is  no 
doubt  that  we  are  to  have  very  prosperous  times  after  the  first  of  the 
year.  Big  equipment  orders  and  the  hke  now  coming  into  the  market 
make  it  absolutely  certain  that  things  will  hum  soon. 

We  advise  the  purchase  of  these  good  Duluth  stocks  while  they  are 
so  cheap  Savanna,  with  the  ore  blocked  out  for  many  times  the  selhng 
price  is  bound  to  seU  higher.  Red  Warrior,  with  its  shipments  and  ex- 
tensive development  work  on  its  property  and  on  the  adjoining  property, 
presents   another   rare    speculative    opportunity,   coupled   with   intrinsic 

worth.  .  .  J  •       • 

In  fact,  the  whole  market  presents  some  rare  bargains,  and  in  view 
of  the  better  times  that  are  bound  to  come  soon,  we  advise  the  immediate 
purchase  of  tliese  good  Duluth  stocks.

looks  as   If   the  end   of  the    year  would 

pass  with  no  great  tightness  of  money 

and  that  we  shall  enter  new  year  with 

general      business      very        prosperous, 

money    easy    and    s^tocks    at    attractive 

prices."

Gay  &  Ptnrgte  received  from  I  J. 
Sturgis  at  Boston  the  following  clos- 
ing letter:  "Prices  dragged  today  very 
painfully.  Demand  was  slack,  and  sell- 
ing, while  email  and  not  urgent,  was 
not  well  taken  and  a  decline  of  small 
proportions     took     place.       People     are 


disgusted  with  the  market  and  of  those 
who  are  holding  on  in  hopes  of  a  Jan- 
uary demand  appearing  are  disap- 
pointed. \N'e  shall  see  lower  prices."

Cotton    Market. 

New  York,  Dec.  28. — The  cotton  mar- 
ket opeiTed  barely  steady  at  an  ad- 
vance of  2  points  on  December  but 
generally  3  to  4  points  lower  under 
renewed  scattering  liquidation  and  ac- 
tive Wall  Street  selling.  Offerings 
were  heavy  and  aggressive  right  after 
the  call,  and  prices  soon  broke  to  a 
net  loss  of  from  9  to  10  points.  Lower 
cables  contributed  to  the  selling  move- 
ment, but  there  was  no  change  In  the 
character  of  Southern  spot  advices, 
and  active  profit-taking  by  recent 
sellers  checked  the  decline  later  in  th'" 
morning  with  prices  showing  rallies 
of  3  or  4  points  from  the  lowest  to- 
wfird    11    o'clock.
