TO SELL INCINERATORS
A COMPANY IS FORMED HERE
1t Takes over the Deoarie Patents
Well Known Business Men
Are Interested.

The patents held by F. L. Decarie o,
Montreal, the designer Of the Minneapolis
crematory, have been taken over by 9
company consisting of w. S. Mott. F. H
George and e. N. Goldsborough of the w
S. Mott company of this city, and Mr.
Decarie himself. and the company will
soon engage in exploiting various special
ties, including garbage incinerators. Ar
ticles of Incorporation, were filed yester-
day. The capital stock is $100, ,O00 and
Minneapolis is named as the headquar-
ters of the company.
The incinerator will be made special
ty. The field in the United States is prac-
tically untouched. There are to-day 25C
cities that are said to be ready to take
up the crematory plan for the destruc-
tion Of garbage just as soon as they can
be convinced there is something in the
market that will do the work at small
expense and without constituting a nui.
sance. Those interested in the new com
pany believe that the Decarie crematory
fills the bill perfectly.
Mr.. Decarie also has patents on a smoke
consuming device which will also be
pushed, both in Minneapolis and generally
through the country.
The incinerators for the present will he
manufactured by contract, but eventually
the company will build plant in Mime
apolis and do it's own manufacturing.

"NEWSIEs" WE'RE THERE
christmas Day at First Baptist Mis-
sion Sunday school.


christmas was celebrated in Century
hall this morning at O'Clock by the mis-
sion OF the First Baptist church. Over
200 children were present and a pleasing
program was given by representatives OF
the different classes. Little tots that ap-
peared to the audience to be but foot
and-a-half tall lisped pieces that brought
down the house" James Whitcomh
Riley's "Just Before Christmas by a
droll little fellow appealed to the
"newsies," who gave him a generous ap-
plause. Two little girls led the choruses
in sweet little song. Following the reci-
tations and songs a generous bag of candy
and nuts was given to each child present,
together with a book and an orange.
The mission was started about six weeks
ago by the Young Mems League Of the
First Baptist church with a membership
of 100. There is now an enrolment Of
300 and more than that number regularly
attend. The young men are ably as
sisted by the young ladies of the church.
Being in the center of the city, the mis-
sion draws largely from the newsboys and
bootblacks These alert youngsters are
proverbially quick in appreciating a good
thing, and more Of them are coming at
every meeting. c. J. Miller is superin-
tendent.

BEGAN IN CRIME AT O.
Unusual Features in the Case of Mrs. Brown,
Awaiting Trial for Counterfeiting.

investment Of money and labor. A few S.
notes in hand, she set forth Entering a
store with fear and trembling as to the
success of her work, she made a small
purchase. One OF the notes was rendered.
Her heart nearly stopped beating as the
clerk placed $4.75 change in the good coin
OF the realm in her hand. The world
looked different as she went out into the
street. Her horizon was wider and 1t was
edged with a silver cloud. She was sue
cessful. She was to be provided for in
her old age.
The same dream comes to all counter
feiters, whether they are actuated by mo-
tives similar to those which possessed
Mrs Brown or are moved with desire
for sordid gain. Hers had the same rude
awakening.
AT the next shop home made bill was
rendered. The cashier placed 1t in the
register, took it out, examined it care
fully and asked the woman il she had any
more like it. Right there, the woman,
without the slightest effort to save her
self, gave up the battle. This slight i'm
pediment in the way OF success defeated
her, although she had surmounted diff
culties for months. She handed over
every piece of counterfeit money, an Off
Ger was called while she was detained.
Mrs. Brown will have good home this
winter She will be protected against the
cold blasts. In the jail she will receive
such care as is due an aged woman. Per-
haps when the majesty OF the law is sat
1shed, as II must be, some one may be
found who will be a friend in need

MUST PAY $40 TAX
Individuals and Societies Giving
Entertainments for Profit.
REQUIREMENT OF REVENUE LAW
A Ruling Which Covers a Temper-
ance Lecturer and a Gram

several individuals and societies CIV
ing entertainments have come to grief
In Minneapolis since the present revenue
law went into effect. The revenue officers
are very watchful of the interests of the
government, and when entertainments are
given the tax Of $40 for each state in
which the performance is given is exacted
uniess good reasons are given why pay
ment should not be made. Where failure
TO pay is detected a so per cent penalty
is added
Charitable entertainments are not taxed.
For instance the Philharmonic club and
the Apollo club, which turn over the re-
ceipts from their concerts above expenses
formed that in giving small gramophone ex-
not required to pay the tax. If the profits
were divided among the members the case
would be different
In the case Of giving pay entertainments
1t Is much safer to refer the matter to a
deputy collector for an opinion than to
allow it to run and incur a penalty. A
ruling has just been received from Com
missioner Yerkes at Washington for a
woman who charged small admission fee
at temperance lecture. Her appeal
avalled her nothing and she must pay the
tax as the following letter will show:
In reply TO your letter, you are hereby in
formed that in giving small gramaphone ex-
hlbitlons as you state in connection with
your temperance lecture, charging an admis-
sion fee thereto, no matter how small 1t may
be, for your own pecuniary profit, you are
giving a public exhibition or show for
money within the meaning of paragraph 4,
section g act of March 2, 1901, and a sepa-
rate special tax must be paid by you for
each state in which you give this exhibit

ICE BOAT COURSING
How a Reasoning Fox Beat the
Reindeer's Skipper.
1T WAS AN EXCITING ADVENTURE
Reynard Doubled and Swerved and
Finally Got Away to
Safety.

John Donaldson has introduced a new
sport at Lake Minnetonka, which promises
to become quite popular before the season
wanes. 1t is nothing less than fox hunt
ing with Ice boats. While standing off
and on" with Theodore Wetmore's Rein
deer, waiting for the starting gun in last
Saturdays race, Johns attention was at
'tracted by an animal bearing some re-
semblance to a wolf, which took the ice
at Breezy Point and laid its course direct
for Excelsior.
Admiral Donaldson piped all hands on
deck, and shaking out every inch of can
vas, gave chase to the fugitive, which was
making such fast tracks up lake that, for
brief interval 1t more than held it's
own with the flying cruiser. Then as the
racer gathered headway, 1t began to bear
down upon the animal. AS the pursuer
drew nearer, the object Of the chase was
found to be fox instead of a wolf
Reynard proved a sly jockey in evading
those who thirsted for his blood. He had
sense enough to realize that by heading
straight into the gale he had distinct
advantage over the yacht in the beat to
windward. When quarters got too close
on tack, the fox did the zig gag act and
regatned lost ground. He made for Orino's
point, but by adroit handling of the tiller,
Skipper Donaldson headed him of and
forced him to hike for Brackets point
He had almost gained the goal when the
Reindeer again slid between him and
safety. Then he struck out for Big Island
and beat the yacht in the run for his life
by a very close margin.
1t was an exciting experience for the
crew of the Reindeer, and now the Mime.
tonka Ice Yacht club Is seriously consid-
ering the proposition to use ice boats a Ia
greyhounds and have coursing events at
the lake, in which either foxes or rabbite
might figure.
