course of friends and old business as
sociates of the man so largely ldentl-
fed with the earlier days of Mime
apolis. The house was completely
filed with relatives and neighbors ana
the ward without with a large number
of the old residents Of the village OF
St. Anthony, and those who had be-
come acquainted with the deceased in
the later days of his life. Simple fun-

conferred upon few. Appropriate
music with Mr.. Johnson's favorite
hymn, Home of the Soul" was sung
by W. H. Eichman, W. B. Heath, Miss
Matte Redlon and Miss Minnie StOd-
dard. The house was beautifully dec

palms, with many sweet offerings from
friends and relatives. Among these
were a wreath of palms presented by
the deacons of the First COngrega-
tional church. and wreath of white
roses by the deaconesses. The piano
was completely covered with heaps of
white and pink sweet peas, and the
casket was topped with an ivy wreath
and a sheaf of ripened wheat, SYM

OF immortality.

BEET SUGAR FIZZLE.
No Move to Erect the Factory nj

MERRIAM, Wis, Aug. 13.-There
is considerable uneasiness among some
of those interested in the success of the
beet sugar factory at Mcmillan as to
the outcome of the scheme. The har-
vest is past and summer nearly ended,
and yet there is nc move toward erect
ing the buildings. AS these are to be
immense, with a great deal of mason
work, it looks as though they ought
to be built before freezing weather
comes. The opinion of many seems
to be that the farmers will have plenty

1t looks to many as though this delay

that it will be built as agreed upon.
Contracts were made with the farm
ers for the production of sugar beets,
and these have been faithfully carried
out by the agriculturalists, with the
result that thousands of tons of beets
are now ripe and ready for delivery,
but with no place in which to put
them.

praise that has been so lavishly be-

Lactated food has tided thousands

ent.
The i'll effects of the intense August
heat are far-reaching. Many little ones
droop and pine, without appetite and
strength. Their usual diet fails to
nOurish, or more often is wholly re-
jected. In this weakened condition the
mistake of overlooking, that anxious
parents too often fall into, instead OF
nOurishing the little ones, only brings
on 7diarrhoea.
And diarrhoea, with the temperature
high up, results in cholera infantum.
The most carefully, inteIligently
guarded children are those fed on
lactated food. Babies, when weaving,
do not throw it up. Puny ones show d
decided and immediate gain. Their
steady, healthy growth is due to this
rich nutritive that is relished even in
the hottest weather.
Lactated food brings sound sleep. 1t
checks all wasting disorders during
hot weather. Every year lactated food
saves thousands of lives.
a baby's duty is to keep strong and

infant the best food in the world-that
is lactated food.

English Scientist Talks of the Lates1
Discovery.

NEW YORK, Aug 13.-Lord Kelvin,
the famous British scientist, who is a
delegate to the convention of the Brit
ish Association for the Advancement of
Science, which is to be held at Toronto,
Canada, in few days, arrived here
this evening on the steamer Campania
from Liverpool. Lord Kelvin talked
freely Of one of the most important dis
coveries of modern times. 1t is the ex-
traction of heat and light sufficient to
run great electric and other plants
from garbage. Millions are expended
by cities in disposing of their garbage,
While that same refuse, according to
Lord Kelvin, is as good as coal if prop
erly handled. Ten tons of garbage,
Lord Kelvin says, are equal to one
ton of coal so far as getting up steam
is concerned.
The practical application of the
theory of the derivation of power in
the shape of heat and gas from gar
bage is but a few weeks old. 1t is only
six weeks ago that the work at Shore
ditch, England, built for the CONVEX
sion of garbage to gas, steam and
