COL. WHEATON,S SECRETARY
TELLS WHY MINNEAPOLIS
LOST THE ENGAGEMENT.
SERIOUS BLOW TO PYTHIANS
AS REGARDS THE GROWTH OF
THE UNIFORMED ORDER IN
MINNESOTA.
KERCHIVAL IS IDENTIFIED.
for Big Embezzle ments--Minne-
apoIis News.

The information received yesterday
from Cincinnati stating that the SUI
preme lodge of the Knights Of Pythias
had decided TO abandon the encamp-
ment Of the uniform rank, and to hold
the biennial convention of the SUI
preme lodge at Cleveland Aug. % came
as hard blow to the public-spirited
citizens of Minneapolis, and especially
those who have been most intimately
associated in the work of securing the
encampment in this city. Ever since
it was decided to hold the encampment
in this city these citizens have been
working with might and main, ear
nestly and conscientiously in the en-
deavor to make the prospective en-
campment grand success. Large
sums of money have been raised, and
arrangements for the big meeting have
| already been undertaken on a large
scale.
E. M. MacCaffery, Col Fred Wheat
on's private secretary, VINO has been in
close touch with the situation all
along, said yesterday when seen by the
G e reporter:
Il suppose that this decision of the
grand council is final, that it settles
| the matter once and for all. 1t is just
possible that something may yet trans
| pire by which the council could recon-
slider it's motion, but 1 guess this may
safely be looked upon as final. It's too
bad, and is a mean thing for the city.
1t will be a great disappointment to
Mr.. Wheaton, who has worked so hard
and earnestly to secure the encamp-
ment. I don't know just what to at
tribute the action of the council to,
but Mr.. Wheaton will be able to tell
| you all about it when he gets back to-
morrow morning. There must have
| been some great pressure brought to
| bear at Cincinnati to secure the aban-
| donment of the encampment There
| is no doubt in my opinion but that the
| Eastern railroads did their best to
have the encampment brought to some
! Eastern city. know that at a former
meeting Of the supreme lodge the rail-
| road managers lowered around thicker
than flies, and endeavored to get the
ears of the officers in the attempt to
| relocate the encampment AS it is
there will be no encampment of the
uniform rank, and as for the meet
| ing of the supreme lodge, that don't
| amount to anything. There would be
no object in having it anyway.
1.-THE one-fare rate is the best rate
| which the K. 2. conventions have ever
had. No city has ever succeeded in get
ting a rate for this encampment more
than sixty days before it was held. At
Kansas City and Milwaukee they only
! got the rate thirty days before the en-
campments, and the rates were all cut
| to pieces. You could go from Chicago
to Kansas City and return for So, and
/ guess you could have done the same
| from Minneapolis.

FALSE TEETH.
What They Are Made Of and Why
Sold So Cheaply.

What They Are Made OF and Why
Sold So CheapIy.
Philadelphia Times.
Where do false teeth come from? ?"
said a well-known bone importer echo
ing question that I had put to him.
wouldn't you like to know? Most
people, I imagine think that all false
teeth are made from ivory. That is
quite a mistaken idea, as the majority
of false teeth are made from anything
but ivory. We import large quaint
ties of walrus tusks for no other pur-
pose but that they may be made into
false teeth. You can go into come big
dental establishment where teeth are
made and you will doubtless find the
remains Of walrus tusks lying around.
and, indeed, highly polished tooth
made from a walrus tusk is just as
handsome, although not so lasting, as
an ivory one.
"a dentist once came to me for an
elephants tusk, from which good
set of permanent teeth might be made
for wealthy client of his. He was
to spare no expense. l found him a
tusk, which, being an especially good
one, I sold for S12.50 a pound, the usual
price being from $50 to $3.50 a pound
I afterward learned that the dentist
made $500 out of that set of teeth.
"Of course it would be impossible
for dentists to sell teeth so cheaply as
they do now if the teeth were all made
from elephants tusks. AS matter OF
fact, SO many people are now wearing
false teeth that 1 doubt if the ivory
suitable for this purpose would ever
be found. I am told a good many
false teeth are being made from vege
| table ivory, ivorine, etc. If so, the
price of teeth must naturally go down
and, in time, the toothless one will
| probably be able to replenish his
mouth for an absurdly low sum. a
set of teeth for $685." continued the
dealer, laughing, would create {
| boom in false teeth

THAT scheme has been tried before

"And We'll advertise for bids from every

the price is clear profit to us. AS soon as we

GAINED PLENTY OF GLORY.
Congressman CulbersOn's First Cas-
Won for Him Great Name.


Congressman Culberson, Of Texas,
known as one of the best lawyers in the
house, enjoys telling of his first case as
a lawyer, says the Washington Star.
The full recital takes about an hour,
and is more entertaining than a first
class minstrel show. The outlines of
the story are interesting in themselves.
Judge Culberson began practice in the
little town of Cuthbert, Ala. The judge,
the prosecuting attorney and the bailiff
in those days all Travelled in a circuit
together. Young Culberson sat in the
court room without any clients, Won
dering when he would get case. The
bailiff touched him on the shoulder, and
taking him to a private room, said:
Dave, they've got the old man indicted
for playing papers. His trial will come
UP in two days and 1 want you to de-
fend him. The judge says that he has
never since worked so hard as he did
upon that case. Upon the day Of trial
the state proved every allegation in the
indictment and broke down every wit
ness for the defense. The young man
said that his only hope lay in the jury,
and he made the greatest speech of
which he was capable. In a few min
utes the jury brought in verdict of
mot guilty" Every one congratulated
the young lawyer, who celebrated the
occasion with his friends in good style.
He couldn't afford it, but, then, the fee
would cover all that.
! No one however, said anything about
payment, and finally Culberson, blush
! ing like school girl, suggested to the
! bailiff that his fee had not been forth
coming.
! Fee? fee? Why, you little heather,
you owe me $40 for giving you a chance
/ to show yourself off. You wasn't doing
/ anything and we wanted you to have a
/ chance"
He afterward learned that the indict-
ment was a sham, and that the jury was
/ privately instructed to bring in a YER
dict of acquittal. But the record the
young lawyer made brought him enough
clients to keep him busy after that.

English Slavery.

New York Mail and Express.
Slavery survived in England much later
than is generally supposed. The word bon
dage in Northumberland still means a female
farm servant. The coolies and salters d. e.,
salt miners), of East Lothian, were actually
slaves until 1775 If they deserted their SER
vice any one harboring them was liable to a
penalty of IS if he did not restore them in
twenty-four hours. The last slave in England
was not freed completely till 1890, and in
1912 there was a coolie living, who, as we'll
as his father and grandfather had worked as

GREENWAY PLAYS A TRUMP.
Manitoba School Question May Now
Be Settled.

WINNIPEG, Man, Feb. 23.-It came
out today that Sir Donald Smith, who
came here as special plenipotentiary of
the dominion government in connection
with the school question, has taken back
a message from Premier Greenway
which may settle the troublesome ques-
ton. Premier Greenway declares if the
dominion authorities attempt coercion,
he will resist at any cost, but that if
they withdraw their coercion bill and
allow Manitoba to settle the question
without reference, he will make such
concessions to Roman Catholics as are
reasonable and that they cannot fail
to accept. Sir Donald will advise the
dominion government to drop its pro-
posed remedial bill, which will likely
be done The domionion government
will then bring on the general elections
on other issues.
