An attempt will be made to organ
ize the Creameries of the state for the
purpose Of securing the co operative
marketing OF dairy and creamery
products. A satisfactory system OF
grading and a reliable demand for
goods will be sought out and deter
mined, If q possibe thing. 1t is
believed this will be the best attended
meeting of the ASSOCIATION ever held.
There are about 1875 C eameries in
the state, and an especial effort will
be made to get the managers together
for the exchange of ideas and the
discussion OF methods to extend and
improve the business. The future OF
the industry seems particularly
bright, md the convention will, no
doubt, reflect this to q large extent.

State Auditors Report.

State Auditor j. f. Nipple will
have his annual report ready for
distribution in two weeks. He saws:
The report will show that the
deficit for the year in the states
business will reach $4,000. The
total warrants paid out up to the
end Of the fiscal year, July /, amount
to SAB, 600. The total revenue
received by the general fund of the
st ate from all sources amount to
$4,000. A year ago in my report
/ predicted q deficit OF 500, 900 but
the Taylor investigations and other
work growing out OF that have raised
the sum to that stated. TO meet
this the legislature levied a deficiency
tax Of two miles, and thai will be
collect ed the coming spring. The
deficiency tax will amount to $242,-
600, and, with the regular state tax
OF 2 miles, will raise for the state
$4S4,OOO. OF this Sl67, 600 must be
applied to take up the mt deficit
from the Taylor d fault, which will
leave $3.50 for the state. More
money is i~mperatively needed unless
some OF the state institutions are
closed.

when the dealers notified the manage.

1t appears that the exhibition was
gotten up by A. M. Bailey, assisted by
F. A. Dickey. One obstacle to the sue
cess of the enterprise was probably
the fact that few persons felt justified
IN paying admission when, excapt an
occasional glimpse at the $4,000 wheel
and several musical selections, no fea

matter, drew up memorandum and

be kept on until tomorrow morning
when their wheels will be removed
Bailey was inclined to be uppish about
the matter. and even threatened the
dealers with suit if they insisted on
leaving, but it made no difference The
Minneapolis show, held recently under
the same auspices, was hardly more
of a success than was the one which
terminated last night.

fashionable sentiment is about to give
way before foreign pressure, but the
leap from full short skirts to knicker-
bockers is not to be made at once. A
respectable step of departure will be
made by not a few women, who will
put on divided skirts with apron fronts.
The divided skirts look much like the

the apron front is palpably buttoned on,

DAD MOULTON AT THE U.
The Clever Trainer Looks After Uni.
versity Athletes.

Dad Moulton, who so successfully
trained Tom Cooper, the speedy De-
troit cyclist, now has charge of the
university athletic team, and bids fair
to develop some good men, who will
participate in the Western intercol-
legiate meet to be held in Chicago
next June. There are about twenty
men in training at the present time.
Ample training quarters have been
fitted UP in the main building, and be-
sides the shower bath and rubbing
table, include all the requirements of
a first-class training room. Mr.. Moul-
ton is confident of bringing to the sur
face some excellent talent from this
years crop, and feels that the ma
terial on hand is capable of handling
it's own with teams from other West
ern institutions. He does not, how
ever, advise entering into contests
with the California team, which has
been training all winter and will soon
start on an Eastern tour Next year,
however, if the Minnesota team meets
with good success the coming sum-
mer, Moulton will begin training ear
lier, and be prepared to do battle with
the largest universities in the coun-
try. Among the wheelmen, he has
his eye on three or four speedy rid
ers, and believes by the time the rae
ing season is fairly opened he will
have a few men who will cover ground
very rapidly.

and especially desire to broaden it's
scope and make it a thoroughly North
western occasion.
The Twin City Rapid Transit COM
pany have also taken q most generous
stand in the matter and will furnish a
fire works display of most elaborate
character, promising to Guido any SIM
liar event ever attempted in the North
west. They will also cooperate
strongly in the advertising of the oc-
casion and also have agreed to make
special transit ngements between
this city and Minneapolis for the oc-
casion. Cars will be run direct to the
building, for the convenience of people
of this city. Duluth, West Superior
and other cities will send special ex-
cursions, while hosts of cycle enthu-
siasts from the smaller towns will take
advantage of the special rates on this
occasion.
In some respects the show promises
to assume the nature of a spring car
nival Many merchants, anticipating a.
large attendance. have applied for
space to exhibit features and merchan-
disc, not strictly definable under a
cycling head. This permission has
been granted and numerous displays of
this order will be witnessed Cycle

will be numerous displays of cycle
costumes, trunks, shoes and all
other articles common to the fad. The
leading tire companies of the country
will be represented by elaborate dis

Considerable doubt was first ex-
pressed as to the fact of the big manu-
facturers joining in this occasion.
This has been dispelled by the con-
tracing of such noted cycle manufac-
turers as the Pope Co, who will pre-
sent complete display, including the
"Gatling Gp'l" bicycle and other novel
