and will take any sums for admission that

John Ludlum, the well-known contractor,
states that he refused to take the contract
for taking down the party wall at the
Bracket block. Architect Orff said that
the job would be an easy one, as the brlck
from the wall could all be laid on the floor.
This Mr.. Ludlam says he considered dam
gerOuS, and made a computation that the
weight of the brick would amount to seven
ty-five tons on each floor, strain too great
to be borne.
The building ordinance under which this
case falls is as follows, being as AMENDED

more money out of George A. Bracket by

five so-called lawyers in this city who will
hound these men to death for permission to
sue Bracket.

Inspector Pardee, as an official who knew
his duty and did it not, is in an unenviable

GRATEFUL NOR EGIANS
will Celebrate Independence Day in
Style on May II.

The 18th of May being the anniversary
of the present liberal form of government
in Norway, it is proper that the day shall
be remembered by our Norwegian-born citi-
zens here. Although the change in gov
eminent alluded to, and which took place
in 1914, cannot be compared with the more
distinguished effects connected with our
Fourth of July over here, still the 18th of
May ought to be dear to the NorweganS
inaSmuch as it has given to that country
Just constitution and one in better accord
with the rights of free nation, than at
present in force in any other country in
Europe. 1t is learned now that the Nor
wegians in Minneapolis and st. Paul are
going to join in general celebration of the
18th of May this year. A grand procession
is to be formed at the corner
of Third street and Twelfth avenue south,
between 1 and 1:30 in the afternoon, with
the Normanna Infantry company in the
lead and with three bands. The procession
will move up Washington avenue and down
to the union depot, where it will be joined
by the Norwegian Infantry company and a
number of citizens from st. Paul, arriving
ON special. A large squad Of mounted
police. commanded by Maj. Landberg and
Capt. Ness, will then lead the procession up
Hennepin avenue to the West hotel, where
halt will be ordered. From the veranda of
the hotel will be delivered two addresses,
one in American and one in the Norwegian
tongue His honor, Mayor Ames, and
Hon. John w. Arctander have courteously
promised to address the audience. Thence
the route of procession is to be finished and
upon returning to the union depot by
o'clock p. M, another special will be pre-
pared to take the Minneapolis folks down
to st. Paul, where the evening will be
spent at Market hall. Good speeches,
good supper and On the whole, we'll
planned entertainment, are in store there.
1t is sure to be a grand affair, and every
Norwegian out to join. In proper consid-
Grafton of the good feeling among the Nor
wegian element, it would be a good plan on
the part of our employers if they would
give their Norwegian employees leave In the
afternoon of the 18th so as to enable them
to join in the procession. The GLOBE
proposes that such liberal step be taken
by every employer in the city where Nor
wegians are at work, especially by man
ayers of city work.

THE INQUEST TO-DAY.
Relics of the Bracket Accident.
Public Comment,


Public Comment.
The five men injured by the fall of the
Bracket block are resting quietly at st
Barnabas hospital, and passed yesterday
with but little change of condition. John
Simonds, the most seriously injured, is in a
half comatose condition, and seems strug-
Cling between life and death. To-day will
probably decide his fate. John Carlson, the
second man with a fractured skull, will
have the skull trephined in day OF two,
and on the results of the operation his life
depends. Aversion, Defrie and Swanson
appear to be resting easily, with everything
favoring their ultimate recovery. The
bodies OF the four dead still lie at the
morgue, and will be buried tomorrow after
noon.
Coroner Hill will hold an inquest at the
morgue at 10 o'clock this morning, and will
make a searching investigation of the
causes which led to the fatality, with a
view of placing the responsibility where it
belongs. Street talk all day yesterday
was very severe upon George A. Brackett
Architect Orff and Inspector Pardee, all of
whom were held accountable for the
calamity. Most people, while loud i'm their
denunciation of the author of the accident.
refrained from all mention of names until
jury of inquisition had decided the blame.
The question of damages was also freely
discussed, and the statement was made that
MIR. Bracket was willing to submit all such
questions to arbitration and abide by the
result. Heis man of wealth and will I'M
doubtedly do the correct thing, but it is
questionable whether such procedure
would not lay him open to abuse. 1t was

Sherman of the Nicollet house that thereafter

We're ''for guests only" Col Sherman may
regret this little act. It was stated in the
water board, last evening, that the water rent
for the Nicollet was fixed at $500 per annum,
on the understanding that it was to be used,
in measure, by the general public, when, as
Commissioner Foote stated, sit would other
wise have been $4,000" Now, if Col Sher-
man has to pay the extra S1,500 for the

A Meat or Fruit Diet, Which?

If the meat packers strike in Chicago,
remarks leading daily paper, has the
immediate effect to put up the price OF
meats good many consumers may inn
prove the opportunity to become vegeta-
rians, or at least to explode the doctrine
that, with the bountitul fruits and vegeta
bles of our gardens, with or without fish,
eggs and poultry. the absence of the
heavier albuminold foods will be greatly
missed.
A change in the food supply as referred
to would without doubt be any easy mat
ter 20 effect in the overlooking abundance
of the American food markets. The gar
dens of the people and the great orchards
and market gardens of the country are
offering to consumers the proper food to
suit this country's climate between May
and November at least.
One fact appears to be in the way of
fast becoming established and that IS that
enlightenment tends to make men eat less
food or lighter food. IT this country. in
its afiluence of flesh meat, has looked
down with scorn upon whole nations who
feed upon succulent vegetables, fruit,
vegetable oils. grains and fish, science
now instructs US that this attitude of con-
tempt is one of class ignorance.
People who work with their brain are
advised to be light feeders. Those who
by their occupation get but little exercise
for their muscles are learning that heavy
diet clogs their faculties and gives the SEN
sation of muscular fatigue tor the unused
supplies they have taken into the system
The magnificent muscular development in
the peasants of Southern Europe is pro-
duced on mush, macaroni, chestnuts,
grapes and the oily olive, with cheese,
eggs and the vegetable soups. The Hin
doc and Chinese live in the main on rice
and butter or rice and lard,a system which
enables the American Chinaman to add
much market money to his savings in lieu
of spending il. Many Americans could
with advantage pattern after John with
respect to this.
Let US take it tor granted therefore that
anything like corner in meats would be
very tar from an alarming disaster. So
long as we have the apples and the hon.
inv we can torego the hog. With the vast
supplies of the lighter and safe foods
there are few physicians who would COM
plain for their patients were the strikes in
the meat-paeking line long continued.

An Albion Farmer.

Recently your correspondent visited the
pleasant village OF Albion and made a
hasty call upon C. W. Hussey, Esq. who
is model farmer, an extensive horse
dealer besides being well-known man of
the legal fraternity. Mr.. Hussey's build
ings are located in one of the most slightly
place of the town; his farm though not
extensively large is conceded to be one of
the best and most desirable in town.
The stock upon the farm at present in
cudes 131 hogs. $50 hens, II horses and
COWS, which is about the average amount
kept during the year, though at times
largely increased. Some idea OF the ex-
tent OF the business done may be had by
stating that MIR. Hussey has sold the past
year S126l worth live pigs, and 113
horses since March. About Is acres of
vegetables were planted the past sea-
son. This together with large amount
of apples is made the food of the hog
family during winter. AS soon as the
ground is bare in the spring the hogs are
turned into acres of parsnips and other veg
etables which winter in the ground. The
hog pen is two stories high 34x50 feet con-
tanning large boiler holding 30 bushels.
During winter the apples and vegetables
are thoroughly boiled before feeding.
Fully 5000 bushels of beets and carrots
will be harvested from the farm this fall
tor the consumption of the hogs during
winter. This farm and the skilled man.
ner in which it is conducted is the subject
of much comment for miles around.
Silas Hussey has also very nice farm
and is very enterprising and ambitious
man of about IS years. He raised, the
past season, about 200 barrels of choice
winter apples tor market.

The Advantages of Winter Dairy
ing.

There are many who, judging from the
course they follow. think that summer is
the only favorable time for butter making.
With them the winter is an Improbable
season, during which the cows must be
fed without making any return. When
they add to their stock of cows, they select
such as are fresh in the early spring.
expecting TO have good returns during
the summer. and when winter comes.
either dispose of them to some one who
will fatten them for beef, or keep them
through the winter in anticipation of their
again being fresh when spring comes.
1t will be readily seen that the
plan of having COW idle three months of
the year. and that during the season when
butter commands the best price, must be
Improbable. To be sure the cows will
need more care and protection against the
cold. when giving a large yield OF milk in
the winter. but this can be secured at
comparatively small expense. where or
dinarily comfortable barns have been
erected. These may have an extra lin
ing of boards on the inside, the
space between that and the out
side boards being filled with straw, well
packed in, or sawdust. Then, too, the
cows can be more easily and regularly
cared for when confined to the stable or
yard than during the summer, when turned
to pasture, ottentimes some disa away.
The butter is more easily kept sweet and
solid when the weather is cold. and this is
the season when it brings the best price.
Winter dairying has many advantages
over that carried on in the summer. as
many who have tried it will testify. Par.
ticulaAy has this been found to be the case
in those States where the summer season
is long and hot. Some have tried both
systems in the West where tie winters are
severe. and have found the quality, as
well as the product, quite equal to that of
the summer months. L. B. AR.
