THE KLINE SHOE GO.

Nothing in the Retail
Trading of this city in years
can compare with our record
in Shoe Selling for last Sat-
urday. We have practically
been doing the shoe business
of this town, and we have
sold thousands of pairs at
prices that were a revelation.
1t would seem as if every
pair of shoes we sold was tell
ing the story of the sale; how
we bought them at one-half
their regular price and sold
them in the same way.
One satisfied customer
brought another, and $50 on
ad infnitum. There's the
story of our success in shoe
selling. We will go on this
week in the same wav, but
probably the selling will be
bigger, as the attractions are
possibly greater than before.
We would advise intending
buyers to come during the
week, as it was impossible for
us to wait on one.quarter of
the customers who crowded,
or rather, over-crowded our
store last Saturday.

HANEY'S TRIAL TODAY.
Prospects of Conviction Are Said to
Be Small

Inc trial of the state against Charles F.
fahey VIII begin this morning with the selec-
uoh OF the jurors in whose hands is to rest the
iaCe Tor time at least, of the ex-city clerk
MT. Haney is charged with Offering a bride
to Aid. Drew, in amount $780, in consideration
nancy dictated upon matter to be brought
before the city council.
For the state, Aid. Drew, 1t is expected will
De the star witness. 1t was on his evidence
almost wholly that the eX-city clerk was In
dlcted, and it is on his evidence now that
the state hopes to convict, if such hope
exists at al. County Attorney Peterson prac-
mad very weak case. This was when Albert
H. Hall, few days after Mr.. Haneys re-
turn from Normal appealed to the court for
an early trial. Mr.. Peterson argued in favor
OF delay and informed the court that if an
early trial was granted Mr.. Haney he would
nolle the case. Conditions may have changed
since then, however, and 1t is not unlikely
witnesses whose names do not appear on the
indictments will be called during the trial.
When the trial opens this morning Albert
ii. Hall will appear on behalf of Mr.. Haney
and Mr.. Peterson, it is expected for the
state Mr.: Hall claims to be able to estab-
l1sh the innocence of his client beyond a
disagreement even is not probability, says
Mr.. Hall.
c. N. Dickey, clerk of the court has drawn
&c jurors to be present this morning when the
trial opens. There were but Is names in the
box, and in line with a provision Of law
100 new names were selected and placed
therein, from which so additional names were
public, as it is the intention of the court to
allow of no probable opportunity of the
jurors being approached before they appear
in court.

BLOTTING PAPER.
1t SuppIanted the Sand Boxes of Not
So Very Long Ago.

In England they use a thin blotting paper
Here we use mainly a thick blotter Such
thin blotting paper as is used here is chiefly
for blntting leaves in books, says the New
York Sun. Here we use on a desk a sheet
Of plotting paper 19xA inches the standard
size, which may be turned over when one
side is pretty well filed with ink In Eng
land the thin blotting paper is folded into a
number of sheets, making a sort of pad
something larger than legal cap paper, and
when a leaf gets saturated with ink it is
torn off.
Blotting paper is not new, but it was first
made in this country only about forty years
ago. Before that tine we used some of the
thin English blotting paper, imported; but
more commonly to prevent ink from b.otting,
we used sand which poured upon the
written sheet out of a sandbox. The sand
box w2s a common article of desk furniture,
as the waterloo was at time, and almost
as commonly seen as the inkstand. 1t was
made sometimes Of tin, sometimes OF wood.
1t was, perhaps, three inches in height and
maybe two and half inches across the top,
where its diameter was greatest. It was some
thing like pepper bcx in the manner of it's
use, but as to shape, instead of having a
convex top, it had concave top, like a
saucer. The bottom of this saucer was per-
forated- The box was filled with sand through
these perforations When the box was used
sand was poured from it upon the writing
A little Of the sand adhered to the fresh ink
1t kept from plotting. Very much the greater
part of the sand poured out lay scattered upon
the paper Lifting the book or paper the
surplus sand was poured back into the box
Many Of the wooden sand boxes were hand
someiy turned articles. The Sand used was a
peculiar fine black sand of uniform grain.
brought from Lake George in this state
At the time Of the civil war in this coun-
try plotting PAPER had come into compara-
lively common use. 1t is only within fifteen
or twenty years, however, that it has come
into the wide and very nearly general use of
the present time.

AS A FOOD CENTER.
Board of Trade Thinks Minneapolis
Should lie DevcIOpcd

The board of trade this morning considered
the question of food manufactures in Mime
apolis as presented by ex-senator G. A.
Pierce who showed that Minneapolis is nearer
the heart of large foOd-growing district than
Chicago, and that more food manufactures
should be located here to supply the demands
of the market.
David Chidlow, chemist for the Pillsbury-
WaShburn Milling company, followed Mr.
Pierce, giving the results of his experiments.
He showed that much could be done with the
waste from flour mills 100 pounds of shorts.

make as much alcohol or whisky as the same
amount of malt, worth three cents per pound
Eleven per cent of the wheat germ contained
oil that is finer than olive oil. He said
the enterprise would be a profitable one for
some one with the capital.
l. {. Seely scored Representative Jacobson
Tor Jumping on bills emanating from the
larger cities. He asked the board to pass a
resolution favoring the Potter tax payment
Dill, stating that the semi-annual tax bill
that is popular with the country members,
was not satisfactory, and insinuated that
senator Potter was not enthusiastic over the
Potter bill.
The board passed a resolution in favor of
the Potter tax bill.
