the vicinity of Washington was
packed. There were congregat-
ed those who, on all public
occasions are eager to see the parade
start. They were so thick there that
the police had their hands full keeping
them back from the space reserved for
wheeling the floats into line. Second
avenue, between Eighth street and
Washington, was picture. There all

never OH sale in the shops, and that are
never seen except between the lips of a

around and wondering if il would all
come right. The avenues further to the
south were in the same condition. And
out of IT all came the most complete or

From early spring when the
frosts were still clinging, in

time, the time when the frost king be-
gins to grow bolder and to harass the
gentler arms opposed to him. it had

conqueror the gates of Minneapolis
were thrown open, and the people. of
the VIII ole nation were hidden to come
and give welcome to the bene ficent

most precious jewels were brought out
from the caskets where they had lam

Queen More Regal
than Minneapolis yesterday morning
after all her worry and work and
anxious preparation. Under the broad
bars of sunlight that streamed across
her brows she stood erect, proudly con-
sciGus of her own beauty. In royal con-
descension she received the greetings
and homage of the throngs that came
from all the smiling Northwest to see
her in her magnificence, in that spirit
of condescension that has in il the
serene pride of the mother who accepts
as her due, yet accepts with love, the
kiss of her eldest son. She was glad to
see them all and it gave her the keenest
pleasure to show to them treasures of
her home, but she wanted them to recog-
nize her position among them and to
give to her the honor that is hers by
right of position.
In plain words, Minneapolis looked
her best and felt her best Yesterday
morning while the trains from all parts
of the Northwest unloaded at her gates

spread out over the whole Northwest,
and gladdened the hearts of a whole
people. AS the waters of the earth are
gathered together INTO the rivers after
watering the fields and before flowing
away to the seas to be returned again to
replenish the stores of the human race,
so the fruitful stream from the home of
the Harvest King flows through Mime
apolis, and brings prosperity to all the
people. He blessed the Northwest, and
yesterday the city that is the gate to the
broad sempire that he calls his own
threw open its gates to welcome him
and his retinue. All the riches that had
come to the people of that city were
spread out before him, and he was III

his munificence.

more than that, there were so many
cumbrous floats to be guided around
that it is a wonder there was
not more delay than marching.
But no. From the moment the parade
started it moved on in its prescribed
course without the slightest friction.
Too much credit cannot be given the
marshals for the manner in which they
handled the big line, and for the prompt
ness with which the start was made.
All the morning the streets had been
INSTRUCTED by the floats moving into

they move, that no one expected the

PAPER MAKING.
It is Now Made of Several Materials
Other Than Rags.

1t is Now Made of Several Materials
Other Than Rags.
The old copybook line. Paper is
made of rags" has become obsolete,
in fact if not in use. Formerly all
paper was made out of rags wornout
clothing and the like and when such
material as straw was first introduced
there was general cutlery. Now,
however, comparatively little paper is
made of rags exclusively, fact which
is fortunate, as the quantity of paper
now used is so great that there would
not be enough wornout clothing or
shoddy to supply the demand. The
strangeness of it is that while paper
is being used for dozens of purposes
formerly monopolized by wood or even
a harder material, such as car wheels
boxes barrels, tubes, pals and so
forth. wood is rapidly driving other
ingredients to the wall in the manu-
facture of nearly all the cheaper grades
of paper. Wood pulp is made by a
comparatively lengthy process, but by
taking the mills to riveI banks where
there is raw material and water power
at hand it can be produced at less than
half the price formerly charged. This,
more than anything else is the cause
of the cheapness of grades of paper
below the average quality, and also
of the steady gravitation of the paper
manufacturing business from East to
West.

After the battle.

After the defeat of the Chill govern
ment troops at the battle of Concon,
Vina del Mar. near Valparaiso, little
lad of eight or nine years of age, hatless
and barefooted, arrived in the town of
Vina del Mar and gave tolerably cir
cumstantial account OF the fight.
At first his story was not believed, but
little by little his story was credited
and listened to with establishment that
q child of his tender age should have
been present at such sanguinary en-
counter. He quite artlessly stated
that when the San Fernando battalion

New Potatoes for the Eastern Mil
lions Already.

New Potatoes for the Eastern Mil
lions Already.
Last spring people who had potato
patch in this section found it very
paying investment on the capital and
labor involved. The big money made a
year ago in this product has induced
the planting of great many of the
tubers this year. All over the country
there are great fields OF potatoes, some
of them nearly ripe, others in bloom
and others just peeping above the
ground.
The market for these crops must be
found in the east. The home consump-
ton is not sufficient to deal with 25 per
cent. of what is now in the soil.
News potatoes at the east will be
scarce until the early part of July. In
the northwest they will not be half
plentiful until the end of that month.
During the three next months there will
be good market for the nice, fresh
new potatoes of the semi-tropics in all
the big cities beyond the mountains.
The best prices will be realizedsfor the
shipments made earliest in the season.
1t will be we'll for the commission men
and dealers generally to cast about them
at once to find market for our crop of
tubers coming in during the next three
months.

Fighting for Zion.

KANSAS Cry, April 1.-The two
branches of the Mormon church at In
dependence, Mo-, known respectively as
the "Hendrickites, and the Reorganized
church," are fighting for the possession
of Mount Zion, low hill about four
acres in extent, which was selected by
Joseph Smith as the place where all the
elect will assemble on the judgment day,
and from there be taken into
heaven. The Mormons believe
that the foundations of a magnificent
temple were laid many years ago by the
Angel Gabriel, and that his hosts will
descend from heaven, uncover these
foundations, and in single Eight erect
a beautiful temple. The Hendrickites
have a church on Mount Zion, and the
Retrganized church is contesting the
title. Last night the church building
was completely wrecked. The Hen
drickites claim that the dissertation was
by the other faction.
