Those'Willmar Diplomas.

A. T.. Ankeny, president of the state
normal board, has been appealed to,
and as an attorney as we'll as presi-
dent of the normal board, will deter.
mine the justice of the case where
graduates of the Willmar High school
were refused diplomas because they
would not deliver orations. Mr.. An
keny regards it as a nice and inter-
esting point whether the board has a
right to refuse diplomas to students
who have completed the work required
of them and have successfully passed
the examinations. If the matter were
taken into the courts, they would prob
ably decide that the requirement is an
unreasonable one. It is not generally
understood, but it is fact that the
courts have 9 right to snake reason

THE BIG STORM.
1t Practically Disappeared Off the
Northeast Coast of Canada.
Light Shows in the Upper Lake Region and
Light Rain or SNOW in the Central
Mississippi Valley Are Indi-
cated-Warmer Weather.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-The great

gion.
Clear weather was general Tuesday

and upper Mississippi valley. where
SHOWS and rains are falling, and in the
southern portion of the west gulf
states, where it is also raining, in ad-
dition there were light SHOWS during
Monday night in the upper Mississippi
valley, Wisconsin and Minnesota.
With the exception of limited ter
ritory in the southwest, the eastern
portion of the northern slope, there
has been a general and decided rise in
the temperatures and they are once
more above the freezing point west of
the Mississippi river, in Florida and in
the Gulf states, except Northeast Ala
bama. They still continue compare
lively low in the Atlantic states.
In the plateau region and on the Pa
cific coast there has been little or no
change except that the rains on the
extreme southern coast have extended
southwark into Northern California.
A low area is evidently developing
off the Texas coast and rains are there
fore indicated in southern portion of
Gulf states.
There will also be light SHOWS in the
upper lake regions and light rain or
snow in the central Mississippi valley.
Generally fair weather will prevail
elsewhere east of the Rocky mountains.

BROOKLYN NAVY YARI FIRE.
Machine, Coppersmiths', Boilermakers'
and Carpenter Shops Burned-Loss
About One Million Dollars.

NEW YORK, Feb. 16.-Four alarms
were turned in Wednesday night for
fire in a machine shop at No. Is in the
Brooklyn navy yard, at the east end of
the yard. This was q three-story brick
building built in the sixties and was
full of old machinery. The woodwork
of the building was so well saturated
with oil that the flames made great
Roadway and the building was doomed
before the fremen got the streams to
playing on it.
Chief Engineer Windsor's office was
in the building. The only work be-
ing done there at present was small
work for the boilers of the torpedo
boats Mckee, Rogers, Foote and Por-
ter. Engine fittings were also being
turned out for the Newark, Scorpion
and Indiana.
The copper,miths' shop, the boiler
makers shop, the carpenters shop and
the foundry were soon in flames and
burning fiercely. The blaze in the
machine shop started at $50 o'clock.
At S:15 the building was total loss.
The building was 70 feet by 325 and a
portion of it was occupied as pattern
shop.
The machine shopis now a total loss.
In this building were stored and kept
patterns and models of the various
war ships built from time to time All
of these models and patterns were de-
stroyed.
The loss is estimated at $1,000. 600 at
the lowest and it is very probable that
it will reach higher figure. as all of
the patterns and models were expen-
sive of construction. The loss on the
building is placed at $3.50, 600; on ma
| chinery, $500, 600.

only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of the mu-
cOus lining of the Eustachan Tube. When
this tube gets infamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation cain be taken out
and this tube restored to it's normal con-
ditiOn, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed condition
OF the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure
