Fully 800 people went to the ked
Jacket Congrega tional church picnic to
the Portage Lake ship canal yesterday.
The weather was all that could be de-
sired, and almost everybody came back
with considerable more color in their
faces. The facilities for q picnic at the
canal are much better now than they
used to be. There are nine fine row boats
that can be rented. and the boatman was
kept busy all day. The lake was quite
calm and boating was pleasure. During
the afternoon q number OF the Y. M. c. A.
BOYS went in swimming and amused the
crowd by jumping and dying oil the
scov. Mr.. John Holman had charge Of
the stand, and everything that could be
desired was sold at low prices. The Ice
cream was delicious and all sold long be
fore Hancock was reached. Excellent
coffee and sandwiches were furnished by
the ladies' committee, and much appre
ciated by the the hungry patrons. Quite
a number OF persons went berrying
finding huckleberries, raspberries and
strawberries. The majority, however
could be found on the beach, looking fol
agates, and 1t is claimed a number o
good ones were found. Between ant
4 O'Clock the life saving crew went through
their regular drill which was enjoyed b,
about a dozen OF the excursionists.

To Parents.

In this warm weather your boys will
naturally look for place to go in bath
ing. The water Of the Calumet dam is
really not At to battle In; besides you
should not allow your bows to risk their
lives in ouch places. 1t is hot walk to
get there; they are almost blistered by
the sun while there; it is hot walk back
home, and they really feel worse than
they did before going; besides, they are
running great chances Of being drowned
when they are away off by themselves.

A FLOUR COMBINE.
Proposed to Consolidate the Mills
i'm Minneapolis, Duluth and
New York.

Minneapolis. MINI, Aug. 23.-The Jour
nal today says: y proposition has been
made for the consolidation of the flour
mills of Minneapolis Duluth and New
York city into one company and it has
been formally discussed by the local mill
ers. few years ago the mills of New
! ork city were consolidated under a plan
suggested by Thomas Mcintyre, senior
member of the firm of Mcintyre X Ward
well. Mr.. Mcintyre has been success ful
III arranging number of consolidation
schemes. He was here few days ago
and submitted his proposition lie met
officials of the Washburn- Crosby company,
the Northwestern Consolidated company
and others in the trade and the question
was discussed at length
The idea was new 10 the Minneapolis
millers and while they did not receive il
with great favor neither did they decline
TO consider it. One of the difficulties en-
countered at the outset was the fact that
the I1llsbury- Nashhurn company is direct
Ell from London and the English owners
might not be willing to arrange details.
The attitude of the Duluth millors is lih"
that of their Minneapolis colleagues. They
are unconvinced. The MINNEAPOLIS admit
that lack of harmony among themselves
has often operated to cut down their profits
by advancing the premium on cash wheat
The cash market at Minneapolis is thus
often out of line with other markets. # is
therefore proposed by consolidation to cut
down the cost of production. Mr. NcIn-
tyre left Minneapolis without much en-
couragcmcht for his plan. but he has not
dropped it. The Minneapolis mills now
make 11.0OO,0n barrels Of flour IL year
and consume 6OOOD.ppO bushels of wheat
This is what makes Minneapolis essential
i'll any effective plan of consolidation.
