THE MINNESOTA STATE
FAIR
BEEF HERDS TO BE FEATURED
Short Horns, HerefOrds, Aberdeen
Angus and GauOways VIII All
BE Represented in
Large Numbers.

Minnesota Is to break another record
this year. In connection with the state
fair of 1901 there is to be an international
live stock exposition which will eclipse
the great show of last year.
The earlier days of this week were
spent by Secretary E. W. Randall, of the
fair, and H. F. Brown, the Minneapolis
breeder, in Kansas City, and when they
came home they brought with them
something greater than they had dared
to hope for, the assurance of the presence
at Hamline next September of a great
joint exposition of live stock in which
the displays of the American Short-Horn
Breeders association, the American Here
ford Cattle Breeders association, the
American Aberdeen-Angus Breeders as
ISOLATION and the American Galloway
Breeders association will be the most
prominent parts. At Kansas City they
met the officers and representatives of
these four great breeders organizati lions,
and closed contracts with the Short-Eorn
and Hereford people, and made tentative
arrangements with the Galloway and
Aberdeen-ARgus men which will I'M
doubtedly be made permanent within
very few days.
Without going into details of the ar
rangements with these associations it
should be said, to show the magnitude of
fered for the four classes will aggregate
$11,000. For Short-Horns the association
will contribute $1,000 and the state fair
$1,000; for Herefords the same amounts
will be given; while for the Aberdeen
Angus, being a smaller organization,
PROBABLY one-half as much will be Of
fered, and for the Galloways possibly
one-fourth. The state fair premiuna for
these classes are ordinarily about $500
each, or 81, 500. Premiums of $4,000 for
Short-Horns, as against $500 ordinarily is
something of a raise and very tempting
to the exhibitor. AS the State Agricul-
tural society is unable to continue such
a large amount from it's limited appro-
priations, the business men Of the two
cities have offered to assist in raising
these special premium offers.
But this is not yet all. The greatest
beef cattle exhibit ever made in the world
is assured for the state fair next fall.
but, in addition, it must be remembered
will be the usual display of dairy cattle
and other live stock At Chicago and
Kansas City there have been no attempts
to show dairy cattle. The Minnesota
state fair has always had a good dairy
cattle display on account Of the great
dairy interests of the state. It has been
suggested in the columns of a prominent
breeders paper that the dairy cattle as
sociations ought to get together for ma
tional exhibition
The railroads are Offering practical CO.
operation. Already the Minneapolis &
ST. Louis. 500 Line and c., ST P, M. 81
o. have offered to transport free to the
purchasers home stations all purchased
cattle bought at the fair The other
railroads will undoubtedly make the same
concession

The senior class of the Central high

which was filed with admirers of the
youthful Thespians. There was cordial
applause, there was earnest attention.
there was-that tribute dear to the play

is due to Miss Helen Austin, under whose
direction the play was given and to
whose efforts is due its unqualified sue
cess. "She Stops to Conquer" does not
make many demands on the players art
Therefore well suited is it to amateurs
Entitled to the largest share of the hon
ors last night was Mr. Thomas Swem
who acquitted himself admirably in the
somewhat eXacting role of Tony Lump
kns. Mr.. Sven was always at ease
always natural and his reading of his
lines revealed genuine ability. The part
of Miss Hardcastle, whose hand fate and
Mr. Goldsmith bestows on Mr.. Lump
hns, was played by Miss Davis and a
very attractive heroine did the young
woman make. Edward Stringer was in
teresting as young Marlowe, and Miss
katherine Stoughton, who played the
part of Miss Neville, the soubrette Of
the play, was decidedly attractive in the
quaint attire of the period. One of the
prettiest things about the play was the
dance in the public room Of 1.-THE Three
Jolly Pigeons inn. Miss Edna Brack
gave a clever presentation of the char
acter of Mrs. .Hardcastle. Roy Milham

sensation was sprung yesterday in
the examination of Abe Cohen, the bank
rupt pawnbroker and merchant, accord
ing to Referee in Bankruptcy M. Doran
Jr., when Cohen admitted that he had
squandered about 81 900 of the money in
playing poker. He was unable to remem-
Der with whom he had played and he had
forgotten the name of the club. In the
afternoon, however, he said 1t was at
a club known as the Harmony Club, .
where he had lost the money.
Cohen, whose place Of business was
on Seventh street, near Minnesota, re-
Gently fled a petition in bankruptcy. His
schedules showed the liabilities to be
$24, 037 and the assets to be $751; of
which $1.O5O is claimed exempt. Besides
this $1,000 of the assets consists of insur-
ance policies on the stock.
According to Mr. Doran, the testimony
yesterday brought out that he made a
statement to the New Haven Clock ccm-
pany in August that his assets were more
than his liabilities. Yesterday, however,
Cohen, in trying to explain what had
become of the rest Of the assets, gave
a number of excuses. One was that he
had given a man named Johnson $3.50
worth of stock for $1,000 worth of bonds,
which were supposed to be drawing 5
per cent interest. When he came to look
them up he found that they were worth
less, and he stated that he was unable
to find the man who sold the bonds to
him.
]. H. Hilscher and Moritz Helm repre-
sent the creditors, who are mostly New
York firms. Judge Willis appears for
the bankrupt.
AT the conclusion of the examination
yesterday, Mr.. Hilscher asked the referee
to issue an order directing the bankrupt
to turn over $4,000 worth of property,
which it is claimed the bankrupt has
not accounted for. The molten was taken
under advisement.

The doctor died suddenly in 1874, at the
age of siXty-four, being at the time the
oldest practising physician in St Paul
For time Mrs. Potts resided with the
family of Gen. Sibley, and subsequently
with her daughter, Mrs. Crawford Liv-

PECTED TO CONSUME
MUCH TIME
WITNESSES ERE NUMEROUS

Attorney BOardman to Prose-

tends Prisoner.

1t was reported yesterday that the trial
OF Frank II. Hamilton, set for Monday
night, would be delayed for a few days on
account of the illness Of Frank NJ. Nye,
enc of Hamilton's attorneys, who is now
suffering from the prevailing malady, the
grip. Mr.. Nye, however, says he expects
to be able to appear in court when the
case is called.
Judge Brooks will preside over the trial,
which, in order to accommodate the pub
lie, will be held in the large court room.
No crush will be permitted, and when the
seating capacity of the room is exhausted
no persons will be admitted
The work of securing a jury is expected
to consume several days. and how much
longer the trial viii last is difficult to
conjecture. The grand jury required four
days for the examination of witnesses
called before it, and there was no cross
examination by the defense The prose-
cution may have more witnesses on call,
for it is known many who were sum-
moned did not testify before the grand
jury. The defense will have a large
number-just how many cannot be told
and the examination Of these will occupy
several days. Some of the witnesses are
from out of the state, and their testimony
will show that two or three days before
the West Hotel affair Day made threats
against Hamilton, mentioning him by
name, though ne had never met him.
Other witnesses who met Day in NIilwau-
kee and other cities will give similar
testimony.
There are several well-known young
Minneapolis men who will be pleased If
their presence on the witness stand is
not requested by the attorneys for the
state
r. L. Penney, F. M. Nye and Henry
Deutsch will represent the defense. and
County Attorney BOardman and his as
sistant, Al Smith, will conduct the prose-
cution

OPPOSED HAZlNG
STATES SEVERELY DENOUNCED
THE PRACTICE.

WASHINGTON, Feb. las pertinent
to the recent hazing inquiry at West
Point, it may be of interest to recall
the proceedings in two court-nlartiaI
cases of cadets at the academy during
ex-President CleveIands second admin
istration and Mr.. Cleveland's comments
in reviewing them. In one of these cases
Cadet Giles Bishop Jr., of the third
class, was convicted of requiring Cadets
c. J. Harris and w. s. Neeley, both of
the fourth class, to stand on one foot in
a constrained and painful position. In
approving the sentence of dismissal Pres
ident Cleveland said:
''The offense of maltreating and abus-
ing new cadets by upper claSsmen is so
mean and CoWardly and so opposed to
every trait that should characterize a
gentleman and a true soldier, that Sc
we're punishment should not be necessary
ment must me resorted to, the effect of
the discontinuance of this dlsgraceful
practice, l can do no less than to resist
all appeals for clemency."
In the other case, Cadet H. s. Com
mayer, of the third class, President
Cleveland, approving sentence of dismis-
sal, wrote:
81 am determined in all cases of this
kind when the proof is clear. to re-
fuse relief to those cadets who, in viola
ton of a wholesome regulation of the
military academy indulge in the brutal
and cowardly treatment of beginners,
commonly called haZing."

NEW HOSPITAL IS NEEDED.
1t Is Urged by the State Training
School board.

The eleventh biennial report of the
state training school at Red Wing, was
issued yesterday afternoon. The board
wants the legislature to appropriate &c.,,
900 for the coming years work, and the
sum of $56, 100 for the year following. In
the budget for this year is a request
for $4,000 for the erection of a new cot
tage for girls and $4,000 for the cree
ton of a new hospital building.
Since the opening of the school, in the
year 1868, there have been committed to
its charge 2,11S boys and 226 girls. There
were 2S3 commitments for the two years
ending July 81, 1900. Of these 239 were
boys and A girls. During the same period
So former inmates, 70 boys and % girls,
were readmitted. The board of managers
furloughed 299. and boys escaped. Most
Of the commitments were for incor-
rigibility, there being 153 under this class,

Minnesota, 1852 boys and 131 girls.
The number of commitments the past
two years were 60 in excess of the num-
Der for the years before Half of the
increase is accounted for by the fact
that the maximum age of commitment
was extended to seventeen years. The
girls department showed some increase.

CITY HOPES TO COLLECT
EXPENSE 1T HAS BEEN PUT TO IN
FIGHTING SMALLPOX.

The epidemic of smallpox, prevalent the
past two months at points throu 5hout
the state, has cost st. Paul little short
of $4,000, this amount being expended
by DR.. Chage in order to ward off the
disease from this city and take care of
the cases already developed.
Every case so far has been traced to
some distant city, due generally to visit
ing relatives from the infected districts,
or by parties who have come to st. Paul
to work In one house on Acker street,
three cases have developed as the result
of a visit from a lady whose home is
at Saltwater, and more is expected, as
owing to sickness it has been impossible
to properly disinfect the house.
In every case the cost is charged UP
to the county from which the party
came, but it IS question if the amounts
will ever be paid. DR.. Ohage is interest
ed in a law before the legislature arrang-
ing for the collection of such bills.

that the total cost of the entertainment
will be between $1,000 and $20,OO0.
