l. My old chum Max was married.
He has pretty little wife and they
have purchased neat little cot
tage over in Jersey somewhere. They
have gone there to live; to settle down
and forget the world at large; to live
in each other; to be happy, content
ed with the humdrum of Jersey vii
lage for the rest of their days. And
Max wishes me to get married; to set
tie down; to move to Jersey and live
near him; to be oblivious forever. of
the awful city noise and confusion.
Max is still my friend. He didn't re-
alize what he was advising. He meant
no harm. Max is business man. He
has had any amount of business ex-
perience, but he isn't a philosopher.
He looks on the bright side of things,
even matrimony.
When I refused point-blank to con-
slider myself even a possible victim in
the matrimonial arena, Max became
much annoyed and demanded my rea-
sors. I hated to tell him anything that
might tend to mar his happiness, but
he was so insistent that I was COM
pelied to give him a serious answer.
The windows of my room face to the
rear, and so command rear view of
a large tenement house and a row of
modest flats. l led Max to the win

scene. There are the homes of some
30 or 40 families--all the result of matt

few moments, and then remarked
that likely enough they were happy
homes. This was exactly what I had
wished him to say, and without fur

history of the country is therefore
identical with it's progress in the pres.
ent century. 1his progress has been
truly remarkable. The wide territor-

ment; the great improvement in dairy
cattle; the acquisition and diffusion
of knowledge as to economy of pro-
dhction; the revolution in methods
and systems Of manufacture; the gen

the wonderful increase in quantity;
the industrial and commercial i'm.
portance of dairying, ali constitute a
prominent feature in the material
progress of the nation.
The 25 years following 1850 was a
period of remarkable activity and
progress i'm the dairy interests of the
country. At first the agricultural ex.
hibitions or seattle shows" which
were comparatively Aew and popular
and. the enterprise of importers
turned the attention toward the i'm
provement of farm animals; breeds OF
cattle noted particularly for dairy
qualities were introduced and began
to win the. favor of dairy farmers
Then the early efforts at cooperation
in dairying were recognized as sue
cessful, and were copied until the
cheese factory became an established
institution. Once fairly started in the
heart of the; cheese-making district OF
New York, the factory system spread
with much rapidity. The s'war pc

Good Bye to Turner Hall.

Ring out the old, ring in the new!
!. sl Last night marked the formal passing Of
Turner hall, a landmark which has stood
as the Mecca of all good Turner's in this
city for nearly half a century. Erected
in 1865 it has served every required pur-
pose, but the onward march of time and
the growing needs of the society has set
tied its fate. It has outllyed it's useful
ness and must give room to the larger
and more modern structure about to
take its place. ..... -.
The entertainment was entirely infor.
NAL, the large hall being filled with
tastefully arranged tables and corps of
volunteer walters in readiness to supply
the wants of the guests. The speech
making began at about 8 80 with an ad-
dress by Col. Pfaender giving q brief
history of the local Turnverein, its OBJ
jects and its work and an explanation of
the necessities which lead to the decis-
ion to build new and more modern
hall. The colonel spoke in German and
met with. a hearty reception. He was
followed by A. J.. Alvin who made q
brief address in English along the same
lines. Speeches were also made by Chas.
Baehr of Minneapolis, F. Burg and John
G. Rudolph of this city. Hugo Roos also
read a very interesting article from the
st. Paul Advertiser printed in 1865 at
the time of the dedication of the hall.
The entertainment throughout was inter-
spersed with music by the Turner Hall
band and orchestra, singing by a male
choir and several songs by various old
settlers. The exercises continued until
about. II o'clock after which dancing
was enjoyed by those who desired to re-
main.

The program of exercises, as published
last week, is being carried out in fire

are in attendance.
The parade which took place about

than 1000 men in line. Two brass bands,
