ST. PAUL, Mimi, April 22.-Senti-
ment in favor of carving the state of
Superior out of the three Michigan,
Wisconsin and Minnesota counties at
the head Of Lake Superior is growing
very strong. Friday afternoon in the
Minnesota senate Mr.. Spencer, repre-
senting the Duluth district. speaking
on the senate's adverse action on an
appropriation for a normal school at
Duluth, said, with much bitterness:
This Is the first time that have explained
my vote this session. but I wish to enter my
protest against the, infamous conduct of this
senate in voting down certain measures In con-
nection with this bill. and want to serve no.
tice and give due warning. that as result OF
it, Minnesota will lose her brightest
and richest diadem. The next decade will Wit

.of the items in this bill, but st. Louis county
Is paying more than her proportion and get
ting nothing out OF It want you to distinctly
understand that within the next ten years the
northern tier OF counties will not be a part OF
this state"
Superior has already announced it
self in favor Of the new state, and this
declaration by Senator Spencer indi-
Gates that st. Louis county, Mimi,
also wants to become part of the
state of Superior, although it is stated
that Duluth prefers that the new state

!. BRUTALITY SLAIN.
A Woman Murdered In Jack the Ripper
Style In New York.

A Woman Murdered In Jack the Ripper
Style In New York.
New York, April 81. A murder
which has not been surpassed for
atrocity since "Old Shakespeare" was
found butchered in the East River ho-
tel three years ago was committed
in Thompson street or it's immediate
vicinity early Sunday morning. The
victim of the crime was woman
known as Alice Walsh, frequenter Of
the region around Thompson and
Sullivan streets, who was found
in pool of blood in the hall
way OF No. 143 Thompson street
shortly before 6 o'clock. She was
still living, but died in short time.
The body was taken to the morgue,
where an autopsy was held. The re-
suit Of the doctors investigation
showed that a most brutal murder of
the type made famous by Jack the
Ripper" had been committed. The
dead woman was evidently woman of
the town aud was about 25 years old.
The body was covered with bruises
The weapon with which the wound
was made, the doctors said, was either
stilletto or long knife sharpened to
razor keenness. 1t might have been
razor, but this was considered rather
unlikely, owing to the force which
would be required to force the razor
into the woman's body to make such a
wound as the one from which she died
The. weapon had penetrated to a dis
lance Of 5 inches,
The police department Immediately
went to work on the case, and Sunday
afternoon Philip Mewley, who gave his
address as No. 154 Thompson street,
was arrested on suspicion of being con-
cerned in the murder.

On the score of convenience and case of handling tho modern or oriental rug suggests itself, but the deal floor of tho average house, in nine cases out of ten, is too rough and open in the joints to maae good work stained and vanished, and even if under favorable conditions you start fair the threshold will become shabby in l2 months with average traffic, i'll three r!onths with a heavy one. If oro goes to the expense of a parquetry floor. whero is the modern housemaid that knows how to take care of it: It gets scratched, the grain fills with dirt, and the charm Is gone
 It frequently happens that where n dominant tonc of color is required in the carpet to carry out a certain color scheme the best elcct is obtained by covering the room entirely W ith the car pet, but in most eases al oriental or ax. minister carpet woven in one piece or a rug made of tho narrow widths of carpet sewed together and hordered will prove the most desirable kind of floor cover ing The exposed flooring can he treated ill many way> Iy may be covered with fine, close india mating, too 1ino for its fibers to b" torn up by boots. ur the space may bo filled in with plain dark lino- leum or with plain carpet of color that will hurmonlzc with tho rug.

watched with greater interest than hero. Nor probably, l think I am justified in adding, Is there a city anywhere whose business men will look upon this attempt more luuStfully than here. Cleveland is full of men who have been taught bitter lessons about the likelihood of victory go- ing to the strong as the result of their bucking the Standard.
 It Is not my purpose here to defend any monopoly, leRst of all tho Standard oil company. 1 could not help it by defending 1t any moro than I could hurt it by at- tacking it. But the Standard Oil company has some good points. Its workmen rarcly strike, and there arc few differences of any sort between 1t and its employees. It is moro than possible this is due to Standard magnateS rcaliEing that the public already heavily prcjudiocd against the grCat cor pOratiCn, would Ge so overwhelmingly with the men in case of strike as to ma terially benefit them. IL Is quito prohabls, too, that the Standards managers have learned the lCSsun, so difficult for most employers Ia aSsinilate, that well paid la- hOr Is always mOTc productive than i'll paid, and that it is sometimes possible to lose mOre in Cne week strike than might be saved in H years per cent rc,luc;iun of wages
 One of the most interesting exhibits at the Columbian museum in Chicago iS the model Ut tho original Standard Oll works as erected by John n. Rockefeller, Henry FlaglGr et al. They were COmically small compared tO the vast works that now employ thousands of men every day of the year and rcprvscnt an investment of mil lions Ct dollars These works were built In the midst Of what was a dOnsc forest a few decades ago and presented a vastly different appearance from that of the pTrs- ent ones in every other way as we'll as in the matter Of size, Then they could be reachtj only by driving few milcs out of the city of Cleveland over wzCtchCd clay ruads, Now the trolley car takys the Nis- itOr tO witI!n a block or so of the wilder ness of tanks and relineries, covering acres and HcECs If IAe canyon through which the sluggish CuyahOga lCws.
