Roads in Minnesota.

The lighter, sportlye side OF
Minnesota serves to draw out the
nails driven by the cares of bust
ness, for Minnesota is not lacking
in business. Minnesota is one OF
the largest states IN the Union.
She has the largest Touring mills IN
the world. has the largest logging
and numbering companies III the
world, and, added to this the state
has recently found itself to be the
owner in fee Of rich mineral lands
which rendered a direct income to
the state treasury of 1854, 1885 in
the year 1892, which, from the
present indications, is but a faint
fOreshadowing of the wealth to be
realized from this source in the
future.
By wisdom wealth is won,
But riches purchased wisdom yet for none.
With all her natural wealth and
beauty Minnesota has not shown
great wisdom on the subject of road
improvement. The leading bust
ness men of the state, including the
best farmers, are ready for an adj
vanced step in the road reform
movement, but the average farmer
is inclined to be suspicious of every /.
thing Endorsed by the city men and
the daily papers, so that IN this
state it is simply a question of how
long it will take to remove prelu-
dice and educate the obstructlonlsts
to the wisdom and importance of
the reform now heartily Endorsed
by our leading men. This educa-
tional work Is being done as rapidly
as circumstances will permit.-A,

PRINCESS BISMARCK DEAD.
The Wife of the Great Chancellor Elk
pireS in His Arms.

The Wife of the Great Chancellor Elk
pres in His Arms.
BERLIN, Nov. 27.-Princess Bis
marck died at Varzin at five O'Clock
this morning. Her elder son,
Count Herbert Bismarck, arrived
at Varzin yesterday evening in ODE
dlence to summons, and other
members of the family are on their
way there.
Johanna Friedrike Charlotte
Eleano Won Bismarck was born on
April II, 1924, Of a noble Pome-
ranian family. Her father, Hem
rch-Ernst Jacob Won Puttkamer,
OF Viarthem, belonged to the
ancient family of lords of the
manor, Won Schlawe, Won Rugen-
waldo, and Counts of Newenburg
and Tauchel, who, since the four
tenth century, have ranked among
the most powerful of the Pomeran-
ian mobiles.
Prince Bismarck first made the
acquaintance of his late wife in
1915, at the house of his friend,
Moritz Won Blankenburg, a we'll
known leader of the conservative
19artY in the Prussian house of del
egates, and the diet,
The acquaintance became more
intimate while on a journey to the
Hartz. on which both accompanied
the Blankenburgs. In 1917, two
years after the acquaintance began,
Bismarck asked Fraulein Johanna
to become his wife.
Her family was not at first dis
posed to accept his proposals and at
that time Bismarck enjoyed a rather
unique reputation. He was sur
named "Der Tolle Bismarck" Mad
Bismarck), and had earned this
title by his numerous duels, his
daring feats Of craftsmanship, and
some widely spread anecdotes con-
corning his attitude generally to-
wards professors, burgomasters and
other respectable members of what
German students call "Philistine
Society,"" 10 quiet, respectable,
religious people like the Puttkamers
he did not appear a very eligible
sutton for an only and beloved child.
Bismarck, however, settled the
question at once. He walked up to
Fraulein Johanna, and having as
certained by look that she sided
with him, he folded her in his arms
and said, turning to her astoni8hed
relatives, "What God has united,
no man shall put asunder."
No man attempted to do so, and
shortly after the first German diet
in which he began to take a stand
as political lea Ter, on the 28th of
July, 1917, Deichhauptman Won
Bismarck Schoenhausen married
Fraulein Johanna Won Puttkamer.
They went to Italy on their we'd
ding tour and then set up house
keeping in the old stone mansion of
the Bismarck S at Schoenhausen, in
their old provincial home.
Prince Bismarck is completely
broken down by the death Of his
wife, although her death was not
altogether unexpected, in view of
her recent repeated attack of faint
ing fits. A few weeks ago, when
the Princess condition was growing
worse, Prince Bismarck said to his
old Butler, whose wife was danger
ously i'll; "My friend, I share your
grief heartily. am in the same
terrible position as yourself. Ey-
erybody is passing away before our
selves"
The Princess died in the arms of
her husband, who had been watch
ing her throughout the night. She
was fully conscious until fifteen
minutes before her death.

BUILDING ASSOCIATIONS.
Judge Stake Renders an Important
Decision Affecting Them.

Judge stake RENDERS an important
Decision Affecting Them.
Judge Edward Stake has filed an
opinion in the circuit court of
Washington county, which is of I'M
portance to building and loan asso-
cations. In 1891 the Hagerstown
Mattress and Upholstery Company
borrowed IS, 200 from the Middle
States Loan, Building and Con-
structlon Company, of Hagerstown.
After keeping up the monthly dues
for several years, the mattress COM
pany offered to pay off the loan and
rendered the sum of 50, 1900, but
the Middle States Company de-
manded SO, 1858.
The Middle States company de-
MED the right Of the mattress COM
pany to participate in any dividends
on the stock held by it before the
same has matured, because they
paid off their loan, They also de-
MED that the contract was usurious
and contended that a subscription
of extra shares of stock was required
as premium, without which loans
would not be made. The court SAYS:
GA building association in its re-
lation with its members is not
lender and the member is not
borrower of money. All the mem
bers are partners in a joint stock
enterprise. The stockholders who
are commonly but incorrectly called
borrowing members are simply re-
ceiying in advance the future value
of their stock, for which advance
ment they pledge to the association
their stock in the enterprise and
mortgage their real estate and in
redemption of the stock and real
estate they are to pay the legal in
terest at stated periods on the
amount advanced to them, and in
with the members who are
not receiving adyancements, make
in stated installments of
an equal sum toward the expenses
of conducting the association, and
another installment as dues, until
the installments and d just proper
ton of ell the profits and earnings
Of the association equal the amount
advanced to them, and in so doing
redeem tie stock and real estate
mortga Cd"
The ease will in all probability go
to the Court of Appeals.

we do not need as much every year
