OF Ninita at tuesdays election.
The alpha and the omega Of the
Chieltain's excuse for existence is
to print the news. In the dis
charge of its duties day by day the
intention is to present an impair
tial reflex Of the days doings. The
one great essential thing is for an
item to have the quality Of truth J.,
and in that event it will be printed
if ii has in il the element of news.
The paper goes into the homes OF
large majority Of the people Of
Vinila, and this fact is kept con-
stanily in mind as the matter is
carefully collected and put in type.
II mistakes occur corrections will
be promptly made, but where facts
are stated no one need ask for cor
rections for they will be uniformly
denied.

laid up in ordinary, under repairs or
under construction.
This exhibit is twentieth century
kindergarten lesson, descriptive of
the navy as it is to-day; and to those
persons who have had no opportunity
to visit our various navy yards or to
see our squadrons Unanswered a
glance at twill probably give more
accurate idea of the composition of
our navy than could be had in any
other way.
A number of models of vessels of
war are exhibited. Among these are
the New York, Brooklyn, Oregon, In
diana, Texas, Olympia, Baltimore, At
lanta and Petrol.
There is also in this portion of the
exhibit models of the Inflated Maine
and her namesake, the new battle
ship Maine, as well as models of some
of the earlier vessels of the service;
so that the growth of the new navy
is very readily followed by taking up
the models in their historical Sc
quence.
For the most part these reproduc-
lions of our vessels are about one
forty-eighth of the size of the ves-
sells which they represent, and their

by that little vessel, is not the least
interesting of the whole.
There are also models and plans of
a number of the details entering into
the construction of our modern fight
ing machines, and among these a
model of the "Hichborn turret"
(Which has been especially we'll exc
cutedD, will, doubtless, excite the at
tention and admiration of visitors to
the naval section; as will also many
of the full-sized fittings, such as self
illuminated life-buoys, ETC., which are
found part of lDls section.
The exhibit is under the immedi-
ate supervision of Commodore Will
hanson, U. S. N. Capt. Richmond
Pears on Hobson, U. S. N, will be here
also during the exposition, being de-
tailed by the navy department to do
special scientific work in Buffalo as
well as to assist looking after the ex-
hibit of the navy department.

REVIEW OF TRADE.
Bra dstreet Says Indications Point to
Enlarged Business at
Better Prices.

New York, Aug. 3L-Bradstreet's says:
Evidence multiplies that the tide of trade
has turned and that it is now setting
strongly in the direction of an enlarged
business at steady or higher prices. Crop
improvement, particularly in the central
west and the Mississippi valley, has been
the handspring of the more cheerful tone
of a6vices and enlarged fall trade opera
lions at such cities as Chicago, st. Louis
and Kansas City. Even from the so-called
drought-stricken corn belt some advices
of quite satisfactory business, in some
instances reports being of larger jobbing
trade than in the corresponding period a
year ago.
prices, except for some irregularity in
the cereals, have been generally quite
steady. Wheat was weak early on in
creased supplies afioat, enlarged receipts
at the northwest and technical market
conditions favoring decline, but strength
ened later on continued poor crop reports
from abroad, fairly large clearances, al
though not equal to last week and general
care in present or better prices being main
taired. Corn has sympathized largely
with wheat, though weakening on its own
account on better crop advices from the
states east of the Mississippi, where timely
rains have fallen. Net changes for the
week are slight. Some hog products, par
ticularly lard, have sympathized with the
strength of corn"
X. G Dun IL Co., In their Weekly REVIEW
of Trade, say:
Though there are some drawbacks.
notably the labor troubles in the iron and
steel industry, business is of well-sustained
volume, to which fact payments through
the countrys clearing houses, railroad
earnings and the strength of prices of
staple and partly manufactured merchan-
disc offer ample testimony. The Anal
gamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin
Plate Workers succeeded in enlisting the
sympathy of other workmen with the re-
suit that the output of merchant bar and
wire rods is curtaied to the extent of
about 10000 tons monthly. Beyond this de-
lection, wage earners in allied branches Of
the steel industry have refused to break
their contracts. Many idle mills resumed
during the past week, and even in the tin
plate region there is a moderate output.
Plates have begun to arrive from abroad,
and prices in the London market sharply
advanced. Hoop and sheet mills increase
production daily, and there is no loss in
the rail division, but some anxiety is felt
regarding supplies of cotton ties as the
picking season has begun in many states.
Decreased consumption tends to weaken
pig iron, and tin is similarly affected.
Failures for the week number 205 in the
United States, against III last year, and
30 in Canada, against % last year."

MICHAEL ANGELO'S HOUSE.
Historic Dwelling Exists as a Land
mark of Rome, But Is Soon
to Disappear.

Little by little, as in all other mod
ern cities, Rome is changing, and pre-
cious landmarks are disappearing, in
many cases against the will of the in
habitants, but artistic considerations
must sometimes give way to public
convenience. At present it is the
house of Michael Angelo which is in
question, says the Pail Mall Gazette.
The monument to Victor Emmanuel
is now proceeding apace, and with is-
the consequent widening of the Cor
so, and in the way of this stands
the historic house. The last 20 years
and among the most interesting
of the illustrious artist were spent
here, and it was during that period
that his charming friendship with
the poetess Vittoria Colonna took
place, and it was here he wrote his
sonnets whose inspiration she was.
and here that he made his last de-
signs.
On a cold day in February, 1861, he
died an old man, and was taken to
the Church of the SIS. Apostol, not
far off, which stands next the CO.
lonna palace. In the church is still
to be seen the statue of Michael An
gelo on the tomb where it was in
tended to lay him. Modern criticism
declares that it was not intended for
him, but the features certainly an
swer to what we know, even to the
nose broken by Torrigiano, before he
went to pursue his heated career in
England. The house was for long
reverenced for it's associations, but
was eventually lost sight of, and only
unearthed, so to speak, in 1866, to be
later marked by commemorative
tablet. 1t is a sad pity that so au-
thentic a relic of the glorious by.
gone DAYS must disappear.

WIND, RAIN, HAIL.
A Severe Storm PASSES Over Minneapolis
Doing Considerable image.

Doing Considerable Da mage.
Minneapolis, Aug. 26.-Havoc was
caused to property interests by the ter
rife wind, hail, rain and electrical
storm that swept over the city last
night. There were no accidents or
loss of life, however.
The storm spent it's fury in the de-
struction of store fronts, windows in
hotels and dwellings along its path.
Panics were occasioncd in churches
and hospitals by the tierceness of the
gale.
The Great Northern elevators, stu
ated on the ST. Louis tracks at Lyn-
dale avenue, received the full fury of
the storm. Elevator No 3, which was
burned a little over five years ago,
came in for the major share of the
damage. The structure, above what
is known as the bin floor, is a total
wreck, and Manager Hiddleston said
that at a rough estimate the damage
to that building alone would be in the
neighborhood of $4,000.
The l60-foot brick smokestack stu
ated directly between the two elevators
passed through the storm uninjured.

Cleveland, O., Aug. 26.-P NJ. Arthur,

hood of Locomotive Engineers, said,
when his attention was called to the
reference to his organization: "Mr.
Shaffer has told the truth; l have never
received letter from him or anyone
else connected with the Amalgamated
association"
When asked about probable action
of the engineers in the present great
strike, Mr.. Arthur added: "The policy
of the Brotherhood of Locomotive En-
gineers when others are in conflict
with their employers is one of nom
interference, strictly neutral; that is
our position"
Schwab Leaves New York.
New York, Aug. 26.-Charles M.
Schwab, president of the United States
Steel corporation, was absent from
the city Saturday and it was stated
that he would not return for cou-
pie of days. The plan of members of
the industrial commission and Ma
tional Civic federation to discuss
peace in the steel strike with him cam
not therefore be carried out until he
returns. No expression as to the at
titude of the steel corporation to the
latest move for settlement outlined
from Pittsburg was obtainable.

New Corn; Old Seed.

At Lake Minnetonka is growing some
Indian corn which is of interest to all
agriculturists, and to other people as
well. The corn is the second crop from
some seed discovered two years ago by
Chicago man, who was exploring
mound in Colorado. The corn was
sealed up in an earthern jar, and was
probably hundreds of years old. From
this corn the Chicago man raised
crop with ears as long as q mans fore
arm, and stalks ~ feet high. He dis
tributed the seed, and some came in
to the possession of John S. Dodge, OF
the Washburn- Crosby company. E. j..
Forester, who obtained some of the
seed from Mr.. Dodge, has an excellent
stand of the corn at his home at Oromo,
Lake Minnetonka, the stalks now
being higher than his head.
