, Conscience. Stricken.

Harry Root, aged IS years, walked
into the Central station at ~Minneap-
oils and announced that he was {. bur-
glar and wished to give himself up.
Questioned by Captain Coskran, he
confessed that he and a companion
had gone through jewelry store at
30 Nicollet avenue, securing six opera
glasses, some cuff buttons, watch
chains, and pins. : He had been for
mer employee at the store, and in that
capacity had managed to get a wax
impression of the lock, with which he
had a key made to order and thus eff
fected entrance. He had afterwards
pawned the plumber. He was without
employment and could not agree with
his step-mother, for which reason he
left home. Urged on by hunger, he
had committed the crime. - (

Agricultural Experiments.

-
President, John S. Pillsburyy Of the
state university board of regents, has
prepared his annual report on the ag-
ricultural experiment station. The
work that is being carried on, at the
various sub-stations is described in de-
tail. The farm at Grand Rapids now
comprises IS acres: What was at one
time a heavy wooded plat has now
been SO improved as to allow the use
of machinery. In a muskeg swamp
open draining work has been in pro
gress, with experiments in what kinds
OF vegetables will best grow on it.
At the Coteau farm in Lyon county
the study Of soil moisture, soil fertili-
ty, production of forage crops and for
estry production has been carried on
for some time. The forestry planta-
ton, started in 1894, is reported as be-
ing in excellent condition. -...,~.,..-... .
The Federal government appropri-
ates $4,000 annually for the work in
this state, but the total expense
amounts to over $4,000.

Nav Stiffen Cash Wheat.

The mills at the head of the lakes
have been given an all-rail rate to the
seaboard of 201z cents This is just
one-half cent more than the the lake
and rail rate now. The mills therefore
are not very much concerned over
when navigation closes. 1t means,
too, that they are in the market for
wheat all through December. They
have bought much wheat to arrive, at
one cent over the December option, and
flour business has been done on the
basis of the spot wheat premium of 81
to cents over December, so they are
practically 81 cents ahead on all they
have purchased. The result is likely
to be a stiffehing in the price of cash
wheat.

SOLVING THE FUTURE VEL
FARE OF THE CONTINENT.
This Is WHAT'S Now Being Done ON
- the Fertile Prairies OF $500
Western Canada,

The rapid progress that is being made
in the settlement of the fertile prairies
of western Canada is leading to the in.
vestigation of it's resources by those
interested in having provision made for
those living in the crowded east, for
those who have been struggling for
years on impoverished farms, for the
renter who is unable any longer to bear
up under the strain imposed by the
landlord, and for the farmer who I'm.
able to purchase farms for his sons in
his own neighborhood has to look
around for lower priced lands. The in.
vestigation shows that it is impossible
to meet these conditions successfully
outside of western Canada. Already
millions of bushels of wheat are being
grown there each year, while as many
as $4,000 head of cattle were shipped
out this year. A representative of the
Germania, Milwaukee, one OF the lead
ing German papers in the United
States, recently made a trip through
Manitoba, Assiniboia, Alberta and
Saskatchewan, where lie the free gov.
eminent lands of western Canada, and
in future issue will appear extracts
from fiattering letters contributed to
the Germania and other papers by their
special correspondents.
AS an inducement for immigrants to
make their homes in Canada, the Cana
dian government offers 100 acres of
land free of cost to each settler. and in
formation can be had Of agents of the
government.

Low RATES TO THE SOUTH.
A Splendid Opportunity to Visit
- Southern Points ut Small Cost.

On Tuesday, Dec. 9th, and Tuesday, Dec
Goth, a popular low rate excursion will be
run from Chicago to the South via Chicago
& Eastern Illinois Railroad. On those days,
that Company will sell both one way and
duced rates. One way tickets will be for
continuous passage; on round trip tickets
stop over will be allowed on going trip at
points in the South. Round trip tickets will
be good twenty-one days. The Chicago &
Eastern Illinois Railroad has two daily
through trains which leave Dearborn Sta
Ohio River; both trains carry through first
class coaches, sleeping cars and have din
ing cars serving meals out of Chicago. This
is the shortest route to the South and the
time made by it's trains is the quickest. For

and present and past officials are ham
mering away at each other to locate
the exact time of it. The present Off

the shortage occurred in some period
of Mr.. Shotwelrs custody of the funds,
prior to their assumption Of the cares

man of the finance committee until a
year ago, is out with Il statement to
the effect that every cent was account
ed fer when he retired. that the money
was counted and that letters were re-
ceived from cashiers of the different
banks containing statements Of the
amount of city funds on hand. He had
all this filed. but the papers have mys-
teriously disappeared. although they
are referred to in the posted minutes
of the meeting. Mr.. Stern, the present
chairman. and Mayor Johnson are eX-
pressing themselves as confident that
the shortage existed before, and there
Is lots of fun i'm sight. In the mean-
time Mr.. ShOtwell is i'm the Fast, re-
ported to be after money to reimburse
the city: and no steps are being taken
to secure his arrest. and no other Grim
inal proceedings have been instituted.
The shortage will result in closer in
spectiOn of the treasurerS books i'm the

ShOtwell is certainly nothing of Il
sport; in fact. he was decOrous
church member. He had been treaSur-
or for Il dozen years, and probably i'm.
agined he owned the money. The
amount of the shortage has not yet
been officially determined. but is est.
mated at from 5000 To $4,000.

ed in Judge Pollock's court yesterday

sentenced him To ninety days In the
county Jail and to pay fine OF $500
and costs. amounting TO about 81, 100
altogether. The sentence was the
heaviest ever imposed in this county
for violation Of the prohibit0ry law,
and attracted unusual attention AT the
time, not only on that account. Out Ill

was given thirty days and fined SlOo.
Storey served his ninety days, ana
started in to serve as he supposed,
ninety additional, in lieu of the fine. as
he had understood the sentence or the
court to be that the Imprisonment
would not be over six months In all.
After serving 12J days. including the
ninety. he learned that hfs sentence
was six months additional. But this
was not the worst part of 1T. Judge
Pollock had instructed the states at
torney to file lien on StOrey's proper
ty for the fine and costs. and the addl-
tional service in jail would count for
nothing. When Storey learned this.
another appeal was made to the court.
