MINNESOTA STATE NEWS
Experimental Work.

A great number of important expert
ments IN grass cultivation are being
conducted on the state experimental
farm at Island Lake. These investi.
cations are for the purpose of finding
out the various grasses best suited for
the climate and soil of southwestern
Minnesota Supt. o. G. Gregg says:
. MANY men haze considered that It
was impossible to grow clover success
fully in Lyon county. We have found
that itcan be grown with great success
1t given proper care and cultivation.
The Asike is the clover for low lands.
1t will thrive ON ground that is good
for red top. It is not suitable for high
lands. The Mammoth clover is q
heavier grower and bids fair to surpass
the red clover in Minnesota. = Red

second year of its growth. If left on
the ground and not carried away, it

For sowing on uplands I advise farm
ers to use the Mammoth and red clover.

Can Return.

County Attorney Peterson of Henne-
pin county. has given it as his opinion
that Louis f. Menage, he of malodor-
Gus memory, can return to his native
heath without endangering his liberty.
To convict Menage of crookedness it
would be necessary to introduce the
same evidence that was utilized in the
former Guaranty Loan cases. This
would be impracticable, as much of the
strength of the previous cases lay in
certain notes and papers, which have
become scattered since then, many of
them having been returned to their
owners.

Cleared Up.

Everything in connection with the
OConnell murder mystery, near Red
wood Falls, now appears to be cleared
up. with the exception of O'Connell's
clothing having been saturated with
oil, and fire set to the building after
OConnen was murdered. Mrs. O'Con-
nell says her mind is a complete blank
on everything that happened after she
killed her husband in self-defense.
The children are unable to give in
formation on the subject, and unless
Mrs. OConnell's mind clears up, it is
probable that it will always remain a
mystery. From all the evidence so
far there is nothing that will convict
Mrs. O'Connell. although there are a
dozen different points remaining for
Investigation, Preliminary examine
ton has been waived by Mrs. O'Con-
nell and her 17-year old son, James,
and they are in the county jail, watt

jury. a. . -

A Growing Population.

:, The warden's report to the board of
prison managers, made at a regular
meeting, shows prison population OF
53S, a larger number than has been in
the institution for years. Of these 10
are women, which breaks the record
for number of female convicts. Two
of the 10 will soon become mothers
and will probably be paroled before
that time and sent back to Minneapo-
lis, where they live. Their husbands
are in prison also and will be released
with them, all the terms being short
ones. The board of managers has de-
cided to purchase additional binder
Irvine machinery. increasing the daily
output 500 pounds and bringing it up
to a total of 5000 pounds. Irvine from
the prison has been ia demand this
year and the entire supply. $500, 900
pounds, was sold, bringing 5000, $780,.

o'clock struck at the Greenwich Observ-
atory a tongue of flame shot upward
from Great Malvern, the backbone of
the militantS. 1t was the jubilee bea-
con fire. Hardly had the spectator time
to look on it before it f1ared in the dis
tance on the right, then again on the
left, on the north, south, east and west.
Peak answered peak, until from Ber-
wick on Tweed to Rough Tore and
Brown Willie in Cornwall, from the
Cathedral towers of Litchfield, WOrces-
ter, Ripon, Lincoln and Durham, from
Skiddaw to st. Heliers, from Hastings
to Caderiris and across the water to
Donegal and Dublin, thousand beacon
fires blazed up their message of loyalty
to the sovereign.
Half an hour later lowlands, the
highlands, the wild Hebrides, even to
ultima thule, sent answering signals to
the sky. And then slowly as the light
failed from day to evening, round the
world the empires torch was lit. From
st. Heiers the signal leaped Gibraltar
to Malta to Cyprus, to Cypron, to In
dia, where it blazed triumphant on the
Himalayas to China, to Australia, to
Canada, to the West Indies-the me-
pire's torch shed it's radiance over the

BLACK FLAGS IN IRELAND
LONDON, June 22-Midnight-The
jubilee was celebrated in almost all
parts of the land with enthusiasm by
public official fetes, decorations, illumi-
nations and bonfires. The Parnellites,
however, were very busy with counter
demonstrations. In Dublin a procession
went through the streets carrying a
black flag and a coffin labeled, THE
British Empire and smashing the
windows of Illuminated houses. The
city has not been so thoroughly excited
since the death of Parnell.
This evening a large meeting was
held in the Dublin town hall in memory
of the rebellion of '9S, and speeches
were made glorifying the men who We're
the heroes of that movement AT Cork
the national society hung out black
flags and attempted to hoist one on the
municipal Flagstaff, but the police inter
fered. Tonight the hilltops are all
ablaze with bonfires.
AT Limerick the police removed black
flags from the town hall and from a
number of public monuments During
the evening John Daily addressed
small hostile demonstration.

effective, though by no means scanty.
The Westminster bridge road was
enlivened by two lines of high Venetian
nlasts. with entwined evergreenS sur
mounted by golden crowns and adorned
with trophies of national banners,
shields and baskets of flowers, altern-
ately. The masts were garlanded to-
gether with double lines of artificial
flowers.
Parliament street had somewhat SIM
liar masts with bannerettes, crowns
and ornate holdings The lines taken
by the festoons were varied and pre-
sented a pretty succession of curves.
In streets off the route the decora-
tions were as lavish as commensurate
with the prosperity of the inhabitants
Flags, banners and imperial devices OF
every sort were displayed; many WIN
dows had hangings of some sort, gem
ally scarlet and gold, or red. white and
blue, and many others added flowers.
In short, by decorations, as by every
thing else, London was transformed
into a vast court, at which an Empire
rendered fealty to it's sovereign.
SCENES AT NIGHT.
LONDON. June 22. IL p. m.-With
the coming of night, the crowds Whlch
had filtered out the procession streets
after the show wedged back again to
view London alight. The illumina-
tions were far more artictic than
the decoration by day. Tonight those
of the metropolis are, like everything
that had previously transpired during
the morning hours, greater and more
reSp1endant than ANYTHING in her his
tory.
Turning into clubland proper, from
the top of St James street to the end
of Pail Mall, the domain of the aristoc-
racy was as they wished it, resplen-
IDENTIFY flamboyant. One of the private
buildings had it's facade picked out in
lights of purple and fine gold, radiat-
ing from a medallion portrait of her
majesty shown in cut crystals.
Marlborough House instantly caught
the eye. Across the four pillars at
the entrance to the grounds was no
tieeable a large branch in the form of
laurels in various shades of green, with
natural berries around a crown sur
mounted medallion. inscribed 'V. r. l. y
The Prince of Wales, feathers and
badge figured in the design, the whole
being of the most beautiful crystal.
Passing out of Pail Mall street the
celluloid balloons quite justified French
taste. The incandescent glow of lamps
hidden in flower petals suggested
nothing so much as a child's dream of
Titania'S court. Fleet street from the
law courts to Ludgate Circus was a daz-
zling vista of prismatic and radiant

/" A Vicious
Measure" !"

When the anti-department store
bill introduced into the Illinois
Legislature at the request OF small
Chicago st0rekeepers unable to
compete with department stores in
assOrtments and low prices) was
up for consideration, Mr.. Alt
schuler pronounced the bill a most
vicious measure.
"We have no right" said he, "to
pass laws regulating trade; we
have no right to pass laws prOhib-
ing trade; we have no right to
pass laws taxing trade. No SEM
blance of reason is given for the
passage of this bill. The Supreme
Court has decided time and time
again that measures of this char
acter are unconstitutional. You
propose to make criminal of a
man who sells dry goods and cloth
ing under the same roof. 1t can
