MlSNEAPoL1s, Dec. 6-The articles
of incorporation for the new railway
running north from Minneapolis have
been fled. The name of the new or.
ganization is the Minneapolis, Anoka

Governor John S. Pillsbury, Judge NJ.
B. Koon and G. G. Crane, all of Min.
Henry F. Barker of Cambridge.
1t was announced some time ago that
the project was being considered, and
that Captain Rich of the 500 had been
sent out over the proposed route to pass
judgment OH it. He did so and the
steps taken have been largely induced
by the favorable character of his report.
The line, it is said, III the information
summarized for the benefit of the pro.
moters, would be reasonably easy to
build; there would be no difficult en-.
gineering problems to compass; the
country traversed would in part be
found we'll settled and with
considerable amount of traffic

general which the line would penetrate
one of fertile fields, Of we'll timbered
lands, well watered and of inviting
prospect. The route of the road has
been practically determined. It will
pass through Anoka, through Cam
bridge and Mora, along the east side Of
Mile Laos lake, cross the Northern
Pacific at some point not yet deter
mined and find terminal in Grand
Rapids. Through the roads already
touching this point it will be able to tap
all the Mesaba system.

charges brought against Count Ferdin.
and Walsin Esterhazy, the retired
major of the French army, who is ac.
cused of writing the letter which

General Pellieux, who was appointed
by the minister of war to examine into
the charges brought against Count Es.
terhazy and which was as follows:
$50 far as Dreyfus is concerned, the
case has been tried, no new facts have
been brought to light, and no new doc.
uments have been submitted to justify

GYMNASTIC CARNIVAL.
Northwestern Colleges Arranging For
Big Event at Chicago This Winter.

Northwestern Colleges Arranging For .
Big Event at Chicago This Winter.
CHICAGO, Dec. GA gymnastic car.
nival is being planned by the Western
colleges to be held in Chicago in Febru.
ary. Six Western universities are spon.
sors for the project. The University Of
Chicago will act as agent for the rest
of the colleges. Manager Butterworth
has secured the approval Of President
Harper and the athletic committee of
the university is considering the meas
ure. 1t is proposed to secure the Az Ii.
torium for the carnival.
The institutions which are parties to
she scheme are: The University Of
Michigan. the University of Illinois,
the University Of Minnesota, the Uni
versity of Wisconsin, Lake Forest Uni
versity, the University Of Chicago.
Other universities are expected to join
the movement later. Northwestern has
been invited and probably will accept.
The big stage of the Auditorium is
what the managers are after. The
main auditorium will be reserved for
the rooters. On the stage the athletic
,ollegians will go through all the evolu.
tons known to gymnastic science. 1t
will be distinct in its features from
somewhat similar enterprises Of the
Turner's and other athletic organiza-
tions. The whole gathering will be
purely collegiate. If it proves success
full will be made an annual affair. The
nrOoramme will be in the hands of the
gymnastic directors of the several uni
versities and will be competitive.
Eastern experts will probably act as
judges. The Gate has not been decided
upon definitely. Washington's birth
day was at first proposed and if the
Auditorium can be secured for that
night that day may be selected. Other.
wise a day close to the first date pro.
posed will be chosen.

BLANCO MAKES A GUESS.

Believes He Can Facify Western Cuba by
June Next.
MADRID, Dec. 6.-The newspapers
publish the following, which is much
commented upon:
"Captain General Blanco has cabled
the government that, knowing that
General Correa, minister Of war, is op.
posed to sending further reinforce
ments, he has studied the means of
creating volunteer corps Of whites
and negroes who would reply to the
guerilla tactics of the rebels by similar
warfare; but he would need for this un.
dertaking 100000 pesetas monthly.
He is convinced that by making such q
pecuniary effort. Cuba, except in the
eastern part, would be pacified by June
next, when the local government could
finish the war;"

Cuban News.

New YORK, Dec. 6. 6.-Senor Canalejas,
the Madrid editor, statesman and close
friend of Senor Sagasta, is satisfied now
that Pinar del Rio province is not "pac.
ified," says the Havana correspondent
in a dispatch to The World. He went
to the United States as the confidential
agent of Spain's premier. it is under.
stood, in order to ascertain the real dis
position of the government at Wash
ington and the true state of public
opinion in America. Then he came to
learn the actual state of affairs in Cuba.
Editor Canalejas accompanied Gen.
erals Bernal and Hernandez Velasco
into Pinar del Rio last month on an
armed reconnaissance. Official reports
have been received from these generals
of great military activity there. They
attacked, Nov. 2S. the insurgent posi-.
ton in the Rosario hills, lately the
headquarters of Pedro Diaz and Mayia
Rodriguez. The Spaniards had two
brigades of infantry of eight battalions
each, two squads of regular cavalry,
ten squads of guerrilas and four noun.
tain cannon.
Major Toro was wounded while stand.

The official account says 500 insur-
gents defended the POSITIONS; that
many articles Of clothing were captured
at the plantations; that the sweet pota.
toes we've destroyed and that many ex-
plosive bullets were found. While the
troops were burying Major Seisdedos.
Senior Canalejas was fired at. The
Spanish columns were under fire
throughout the night of the goth, but
the official report gives the loss of only
one major and two guerillas killed; one
major, one captain and eighteen men
wounded.
Decorations have been requested for
''brilliant" action. The loss of the in
surgents is not known.
mo bodies were found on the field Of
battle"
What Senior Canalejas witnessed may
account for the cabled report from
Madrid that at Fridays cabinet council
at which the queen regent presided,
Premier Sagasta reported that ''the
military operations in the province of
Pinar del Rio show it to be an import.

The Abolition Of Poverty One OF
Those MentiOned---S0me of

AUSTIN, Tex Dec. 6.-The National
Prison association has decided it would
hold the next annual meeting in: In.
dianapolis. The most important bust.
ness of the morl0 Sig session was the
submission of the rel ort of the commit
tee OH criminal law reform. The report
stated that the progress of crime was
something frightful, and recommends
that it should be successfully checked
by the following changes in the hand
ling Of the criminals of the world.
Greater security Of punishment: do
ing away with all technicalities II
trials; abolishment Of jufies, making
conviction more summary and trial
more speedy; depriving defendants of
the right to appeal to higher court;
Offering rewards for the discovery and
conviction of criminals; sterilization of
detectives, both moral and physical;
abolishment Of poverty; removing
or restricting the power of pardon; pro-
hibiting the use of Intoxicating liquors;
reconstruction of the ethical code of
laws; curing inherent defects in the
law as distinguished from its enforce
ment; developing scientific mother.
hood; state regulation of marriage;
restricting immigration; popular edu-
cation and colonization of criminals;
the reformation of criminals by the
abolition of the definite sentence.
The committee states that some Of
their suggestions are practically impos-
sible at present, but if followed az
closely as possible the morals of the
country would be greatly improved and
crime would be correspondingly de-
creased

The Stock which Bred Heroes.

There must come time, not very far
away, when the chief actors in the work Of
decorating our soldiers graves will not be
soldiers who themselves fought for our
country's life, but their children and their
surviving countrymen, for death will have
claimed the last member of the Grand
Army of the Republic. A million men were
sent back to the walks of private, civilian
life when the rebellion closed. But thirty
years of times moving have cut down the
human wheat then standing in the field,
until the sheaves yet to be gathered are
comparatively few indeed. Let me assure
you. for your country, and in its name, that
your heroism in its behalf shall be held in
everlasting remembrance. You may transmit
to your families when you go hence very
little of material store; but your part as
Union soldier in the great Rebellion will be
a legacy to them of untold value and your
children's children to the latest generation
will count themselves honored in having
come from the stock in which such heroes
were found.-Rev. J. B. Stitt, D. D.

A PRAYER for Guidance.

Father of all. graciopsly look upon US as
family now seeking to behold thy face. AS
the morning light is thine, SO the blessing OF
the whole day must come from thee. Guide
us with thine eye, we humbly pray thee and
give thine angels charge concerning u.s. lest
at any time we dash our foot against stone.
Above all grant unto us large gifts OF the
holy spirit. We do not pray for bread alone,
but for the bread of life that comethsdown
from heaven. For one another and for ouf
absent friends we would fervently pray. Bless
the old and the young, and with the sick and
the fainting be thou very gentle Watch over
those who are full of care and speak COM
fortably to those to whom wearisome days
and nights are appointed. Sanctify our
successes, and may our failures teach US
that it is not in man to direct his way. Go
with the child to school and with the man to
business, and may those who stay at home
feel themselves under the constant care OF
God. The Lord undertake for every one OF
us according to our hearts necessity and
multiply unto US his grace, so that beyond
all our want there may be an overflow of
divine love. Amen.
