They Respond Readily to the New
PrOnoSal of the Expo Board

They Respond Readily to the New
Proposal Of the Expo. Board.
The Minneapolis Exposition board
has commenced sending out its pre-
MUM list to the farmers and the re-
turns are coming in with surprising
quickneSs. The agricultural and hor-
tcuturdl branches which the expos-
ton has established this year have
awakened decided interest among the
farmers'and the result will be that the
show Will be. more largely patroniZed
by that class of people than it ever
was before.
Secretary Byron says that he is daily
getting applications for splendid ex-
hibits from the, agricultural classes, who
seem very glad to get the opportunity
to show what they can do in their line.
He said yesterday morning that the ex
position would have the finest horti-
cultural and agricultural exhibit ever
shown in the state of Minnesota, with
out exception.
Manager. Bracket has received a
photograph of the ~Queell's Own Bugle
band, of Toronto, with which he has had
more Or less correspondence lately in
regard to getting it here for a concert
during the exposition period. The band
will be in Chicago about The time. and

THE BODIES FLOATED.
Remains of the Minnetonka Vic
Tins Rise.

Coroner Spring returned yesterday
morning from Min1etonka, where he
was summoned Friday night to look aft
er the body of man found floating be-
tween Cottagewood and, Big Island.
The remains were identified as those of
Fred Jacobson. who was drowned some
time ago while crossing that part of the
lake in a bad storm. The body of Will
lam Seaman, who was drowned at the
same time, was seen yesterday morn
ing off the point of Big Island towards
Cottagewood, drifting i'll the direction
of Browns bay. The person who saw
the body merely notified the authorities
without taking any steps to prevent the
corpse from drifting off where it would
be difficult to find, and as 1T is not a
part of the coroner's duties to go out
hunting for bodies, Coroner Spring re-
turned to the city before ScanIan's re-
mains had been located.

always remained true to himself and
his country. 1t is far more difficult to
convert man from his nationality than
from his religion. 1t was far more
difficult in most instances TO convert
ALI Irishman into an EngliShman than
to convert a Catholic into Protestant.
History shows that men have often
changed their religion, but they rarely
turn traitor to their country except by
the influence of British gold aud Brit
ish promises of spells and titles. But
the Irish Orangeman did turn, and for
two or three hundred years has been a
more rabid British Tory than any En-
glishman. The Orangeman has been
the avowed champion of the divine
rights of kings, lords, landlords and
aristocrats. He is now and always
has been an extreme monarchist
and an enemy eff all that is liberal an
free except for himself and the favored
few. He has always been the most
illiberal and progressive element in
the extreme wing of the Tory party i'll
the British empire, opposing every re-
form and every innovation. His ideal
nation is a British empire on whose
domains the sun never sets, ruled Dy
king, lords, landlords and aristocrats,
with fat place for every Orangeman.
What have the American people to
do with the battle of the Boyne? Our
battle is the battle of Bunker Hill.
Where was the Orangeman then? He
was in the camp of King George; he was
the spy, the traitor and the Judas
Iscariot of America. While Catholic
and Protestant fought side by side on
every battlefield from Bunker Hill
to the siege of Yorktown, the
Orangeman remained loyal to King
George. expecting to play the same
game that he had so often played IN
Ireland, TO possess himself Of the con-
fiscated estates of George Washington
and Robert Morris and all the other
American patriots who risked their
lives and their fortunes for their
country. Failing in this, with the
other British Tories and Benedict
Arnold, he left the country for her
majesty's dominions. and we have had
few of him since. Patrick Henry, when
advocating the passage of the amnesty
bill in the house of burgesses of Vlr-
ginia, said of these people: 1--WE have
laid the great British lion at our feet.
and why should we now be afraid of
her whelps?" The Orangeman is still
the same old whelp, the same traitor to
everything except British interests"

LURlINE REGATTA.
1t Is Interfered With Somewhat
by q Gale.

A lively gale at Lake Calhoun yester-
day afternoon was a disappointment to
the Lurlines, who had counted upon a
fair day upon which to make several
races of more than ordinary interest.
The men and the shells were in the
pink of condition, but the lake
was too rough for any races
but doubles and fours, which
had to encounter a rough gale and heavy
waves. Later in the evening the water
became smooth enough to allow one
single to be raced. The first event of
the afternoon was senior double be-
tween Burlington and Grosskopf against
Brown and Taylor. The former crew
led from the first, although Brown and
Taylor kept we'll behind. Burlington
and GrosSkopf made the best turn at
the half, and came down the stretch
with the wind at their back, like loco
motive. The winning crew pulled with
Burlington stroke and GroSSkopf bow.
The other crew raced with Brown at
stroke and Taylor at the bow.
The second event was a junior four
against the senior four. The latter did
not win. however, without first having
to overcome strong pull put up by the
juniors. The crews were as follows:
Juniors, Libby bow, Brown stroke,
Gage number two, Des Brisay number
three. Seniors, Taylor bow, Grosskopf
stroke, Burlington number three, Fitz-
gerald number two. The juniors lost
the race by about one length, and their
rowing was characterized by very
pretty and even stroke.
There was considerable interest NAH
ifested in a pretty race between four
singles. The starters were Brown,
Burlington, Grosskopf and Fitzgerald.
The usual course of mile with turn
was traversed. The wind UP showed
Burlington far in the lead, with Gross
kopf second, Brown third and Fltzger-
aid fourth. Burlington made the turn
long before the others had reached the
flags, and it is laughingly claimed by
some that Buff played joke upon
his competitors by cutting across cor
ners.
The next races will doubtless develop
far more interest than any so far this
season, as the two new eight-oared
shells will arrive in the city, and will be
in readiness for their first trial by Sat-
urday. The new shells are of the finest
make that could be procured, and will
give the Lurlines chance to meet some
of the crews of eight about the country
which have long desired a match.
