true friendship is anchored more firmly

Emperor William and the German
Federal Council are reported as having
badly mixed things up with that open
ing of the century" question. They have
decided that with January, 1900, the
twentieth century begins, hence in Ger
many that will have to be accepted.
But it will not make it so. There was
a man in the long ago who discovered
that the earth is a globe, and he so
announced his discovery. Church. State
and society scoffed at him, and would
not have it, but the earth remains
round just the same. And though when
one declared that the earth moves in
it's orbit, he was scorned by the doctors
of the law and the sciences as then I'M
derstood, the world continues to move
Through it's appointed course just the
same. 1t is really odd that there should
be any confusion about this century
ton will prove it. Suppose a century
to consist of but ten years. Then, ten
full periods of twelve months each
must elapse before the century is COM
plete. At the end of the first twelve
months the year one will be complete,
will it not? When twenty months
have swung through time the second
year will be complete, and come to an
end. When the third circuit is made
the third year is complete, and so on.
When the fourth, the fifth, sixth, sew
enth, eighth and ninth have been filled
with twelve months each, we come to
the end Of the ninth year. With the
beginning Of the tenth we enter, as a
matter of course, upon the commence
which for convenience we have said
shall complete the round of a century.
Not until that tenth Cor the one hun
dredth) year has run its full course
thing Of past time. AS in this case
the tenth represents 1900, it follows
that the year 1900 must run it's full
course of twelve months before the
nineteenth century is finished. There
fore, the twentieth century cannot en-
ter upon it's race with man until the
dawn Of the year 1901. Yet upon as
simple a proposition as this the German
Emperor, the Imperial Council and the
Car of Russia and some other people
have tangled themselves up in a way
that would make a grammar school
boy ashamed.

Little Falls is not the only place
on the Northern Pacific that has had
trouble with freight trains blocking
the street crossings. The remedy ap-
piled through the courts not only
brought about a reform in this city,
but has the approval of officials OF
the road. At Wadena the mayor
made complaint to Superintendent
Sovereign, OF that division, and in a
letter replying to the complaint Mr..
Sovereign said: II beg::to advise in
reply that so many bulletins have
been issued on this matter and the
subject talked over so often with
our conductors that it appears to be
only a. waste of time to issue any
further instructions in regard to this
matter. Our standing rules are very
explicit relative to blocking cross
ings unnecessarily in cities and::vil-
ages and conductors are fully aware
that the responsibility rests with
them, and think that If you will
make an example Of one or two of
our men it will have the effect at
Wadena that it has had at other
points, OF stopping the blocking of
crossings unnecessarily, especially at
such busy points as Wdena where
travel across our tracks is almost
constant"

the nervous and organtic action Of

Trade Conditions.

There were no unusual features
with the last weeks local
trading worthy OF mention. Bust
ness continues good in all general
lines. Colder weather would greatly
increase business in some lines, but
as rule merchants have little cause
for complaint. ..~
An advance in wheat would also
stimulate trade, but the tendency Of
the market does not seem to be in
that direction There are large
quantities, however, being marketed
during the fine weather. Today's
prices are one cent lower than they
were at this time last week. A slight
decline in pork is quoted, due no
doubt to the warm weather. Eggs
are down cent from last week 8

gone up cents. Good butter has
been very scarce at times during the

Quoted in an irreverent spirit but with
the firm intention on the part of those
engaged in the argument to show that
great minds can have entirely erron-

subject.
One result of the discussion has been
to call attention to the great variety
of beautiful conceptions that art has
given us, and the unanmity of Opin-
Ion among artists regarding particu-
lar features of the inhabitants of the
angelic world.
Angels in art are seXless. They are
never bearded and while Michael and
his legions have frequently richly
wrought armor and Gabriel is often in
priestly robes, most angels wear dis
tinctly feminine dress. In the decad-
ent and sensuous are of Corregio they
become often girl-buds of Is, exquisite

Raphael represented them in the
Bible series as striplings, exquisite in

the purest style of all, without wings
or symbol of any sort. The later Ital-
jams failed to give any spirituality to
their forms. One critic says: Il have
