MINNESOTA certainly did herself
proud at the International live stock
show at Chicago recently. The prizes
won were sixty-twO of which twenty
were first. This was the largest num-
Der of prizes won by any one exhibitor
at the fair. The total winnings were
81 ,33S. The exhibit of forage and food
stuff, which won first for Minnesota, is
to be presented to Argentina, at the
request of that government. Mime
sofa won first prize for the best gen.
eral exhibit of cattle, sheep and swine
in the dead meat class, and this shows
that Prof. Shaw and his assistants
at the State experiment station have
demonstrated that they know thing
or two about fattening for market.

THE Schley court of inquiry has
made its report which it has filed with
the secretary of the navy, and Ad-
mirals Ramsey and Benham find
Admiral Schley guilty on every point
of the precept but one, and that was
cowardlce at the battle of Santiago.
1t is a wonder Messrs. Ramsey and
Benham could yield this much. Ad-
miral Dewey signs the report with
Judge Advocate Lemley, though the
hero OF Manila after doing so writes
his own report and wholly exhonerates
Schley, whom be says got his fleet to
Clenfuegos with as much dispatch as
possible, and be also says that the trip
from Cinefuegos to Santiago was made
with all possible dispatch, and that
the blockade at both places was ef-
tective. Admiral Dewey says in con-
GLIDING that Schley was in absolute
command at the battle of SANTIAGO
and is entitled to the credit due such
commanding officer. While RAMSEY
and Benham were splitting hairs over
minutes and seconds in the time
Schley received orders from the navv
department, and while they were fix

at this late day to show where Schlev
could have had his squadron at such

tlemen were doing all this-Admiral
Dewey who had been mixed up in a.
little battle himself threw minor
technicalities to the dogs and could
see the fighting qualities in schlev,
as we'll as his patriotism and bravery.
and he does not hesitate to give
Schley the credit he deserves. Dewey

are there evidences to dispute the
assertion. Human agencies for good
are multiplying much faster than hui
man agencies for evil, and Christmas,
with its brotherly and noble influences,
is grand example of this fact. Nor
is all this hypocrisy and sham. There
is plenty of it in the world and enough
for the hereafter, too, but there are
few who profane the loving customs of
Christmas with such miserable exhibit
tions.
There are so many features of Christ
mas time and gift-givng, that it would
seem that there was 'nothing new

the best ways. The same toys carry

Christmas comes every year and has
been coming for many hundred years,
but there is an undying and imperish-
bic beauty and fascination about it that
makes its presenc sweet and refresh

pleasure and are 10th to see it go.

THE LOVING CUP OF CHRISTMIS.

Holmes in one of his poems says:
Come heap the fagots' ere we go:
Again the cheerful hearth shall glow.
Well have another blaze, my boys!
When clouds are black and SHOWS are white,
Then Christmas logs lend ruddy light
They stole from summer days
They stole from summer days.
And let the loving cup 60 round
The cup with blessed memories crowned
There is something about Christmas,
its coming, its happy realities and it's
going, that binds the great world
together in a brotherhood of peace,
and why shouldn't it, for it stands for
the grandest epoch in the worlds his
tory, and this no man cares to dispute.
With all its holy and mellowing inlu-
ences, Christmas-tide takes the world
up from it's beaten path of duty, of
striving, of longing, of victory and
defeat, and in the change there is
TRANSPORTATION that sweetens and
brightens the whole world. The little
children-the mediums through which
the coarse and calloused nature of
man is lifted up to higher things
Christmas its cheer and gladness, for
what would Christmas be without them?
The joy, pleasure and pride that Christ
mas brings forth, and the spirit of
good fellowship it creates in the heart
of man, certainly must exert tremen-
dous influence for good throughout the
world, and tighten the load of care
that burdens it.
Christmas, with its beautiful loving
cup, inscribed with ''Peace on Earth,
Good VIII to Men," does the world more
good than ten thousand sermons. With
its chalice of cheer that is passed
around from old to young, there is joy
enough to bring the world together in
one grand and glorious jubilee.
1t is sometimes said that Christmas is
more of burden and bore than a
pleasure, but those who utter such
expressions really do not mean what
they thoughtlessly say, for there is
scarcely a person throughout the whole
realm of Civilization, but who uncon-
sciously, at least, comes within the
presence of the purifying spirit of
Christmas-tide, and is made to feel
better and brighter by it's holy inAu-
ences. It may be that there is some
mechanical and mercenary gift-giving
on Christmas day, but such occurrences
are lost sight of in the observance of
the true spirit of the day.
There is one feature of Christmas
observance that is becoming more and
more pronounced every year, and that
is remembering the poor and the desti-
tute; and they too, can drink from the
beautiful loving cup of Christmas, and
share in the generous fellowship of the
day. No home is so cherries and
gloomy but what some thoughtful ones,
radiant with good will and love, seek
out the poor and lonely tenants and
bring to them the fruits of the spirit
OF Christmas-tide. The little street
waif, the thousands of imprisoned little
ones in dark and dismal homes, where
the heartbeat of love is seldom heard.
all have share in the happiness of
Christmas,
There are those who insist that the

BRITISH DISAPPOINTMENT.

LONDON, September 27.-The failure
of the yachts to cover the course in
time to constitute a race has created
general disappointment in Great Brit
ain, but chagrin at the apparent poor
showing of the Shamrock overshadows
all other expressions of feeling.
The morning papers express the keen
est disappointment. The Times, Daily
Mail, Daily Graphic, Morning Post and
Standard all contend that the weather
conditions We're too fluky to justify any
verdict on the ultimate performance,
but even these journals admit that
the Shamrock's performance was very
disappointing. The other papers vir-
tually abandon hope.

waited until the Shamrock rounded,
seven minutes and four seconds later
and gave her a cordial reception.
From that time on it was a process

half a dozen head sails in the hope of

ACCIDENT At NOON TODAY
WORKMAN on HALL BUILDING
INJURED.
Falls Into the Cellar on a Mass of De-
bris-Patrol Wagon Called-Taken to-

Joe Caldera, a Portuguese who Is EN-
plOyed in the tearing down of the
bricks and masonry on the burned f.
o. Hall building, met with an accident
at noon today that necessitated the
calling up of the patrol wagon and the
taking of the injured man to the hos
pital.
Caldera was employed in looseninS
the masonry Of the main floor ON the
King street side Of the building ana
was working on the level of the street.
According to a Chinaman employed on
the building, who was apparently the
only eye witness Caldera was loosen

a crowbar. He Strengthened up for an
instant and i'm stopping to regain his
tool which was then leaning at almost
a right angle over the basement, lost
his balance and fell to the bottom of
the cellar, height of about twelve
feet.
Piled at the bottom Of the basement
wall where he fell is a miscellaneous
assortment of iron pillars and rusty
hardware, the debris of the burned out
basement. On to this heap the man
fell. Apparent injuries showed in con-
tusiOns over his right eye and cut be-
tween the brows.
When being carried up the planks
from the floor of the basement he
shrieked with pain and seemed to have
sustained either a fracture of a limb

THE CUP IS STILL OURS
FIRST OF THE THREE RACES
ATTEMPTED.
Was a Light Breeze and Neither Boat
Finishes in the Time Limit-The Ex-
perts' Opinions.

NEW YORK, September 26.-The Sun
tomorrow will say: 1t looks as if the
treasured cup wrested from English
yachtsmen fifty years ago will not take
a voyage over the seas this season.
The attempt yesterday (Thursday) at
a race between the slippery Columbia
and the lissome Shamrock II demon
strated, in the opinion of many expert
Yankee shippers who viewed the con-
test from the decks of attending steam
craft that the Herreshoff creation is
the better ship in light weather. She
appeared when the gentle breeze held
true and did not favor one yacht more
than the other, to be ADLER on the wind
and swifter in footing The Shamrock
was somewhat sluggish in the stays,
as compared with the alert Yankee de-
fender.
The breeze, which never got beyond
the dignity of what, according to the
Beaufort scale, would be called light
breeze-that is, eleven knots-shifted
in a manner favoring the Columbia
There were other times when the shift
of lull were distinctly favorable to the
challenger, which on these occasions
obtained slight advantage over her
rival; but, on the whole, the honors
We're with the Columbia, and unless
She Shamrock develops better form she
Will have hard time of 1T lifting
that cup.
When the race was called off because
of the expiration of the time limit of
five and one-half hours the Columbia
was about a mile ahead of the Upton
yacht and about seven miles from the
finish. In the windward work fifteen
miles from Sandy Hook lightship TO
a point down the Long Island coast,
within easy sight of shore, the Co
lumbia beat the challenger by seven
minutes and three seconds. Fluky and
puffy airs were the rule in the beat.
The marvellous and ghOst-like way the
defender sneaked through the Briton S
lee and came up on her weather bow
when the challenger happened to get
the windward by good luck and man
agement drew forth the admiration OF
the tlotilla of patriots and astonished
hundreds of the great visiting foreign
fleet. @gaAa g
The Official time at the outer mark
follows:
Columbia, 305:S2
Shamrock, 3:12:47
To sum up today's performance OF
the two yachts, it may be said that In
light weather such as prevailed today
the Shamrock proved to be no match
for the Columbia. What she may ac-
complish with a good wind remains to
be seen.
1t was directly off Long Beach Hotel,
that the Shamrock showed in front for
the only time during the race. AS the
wind had hauled more to the south
ward and had died down somewhat,
Barr headed the Columbia off shore in
the hope of meeting it. Instead, he
poked his nose into a dead calm, and
for some minutes the Columbia lay with
her sails Tapping, while the Shamrock
catching a slant of wind nearer shore,
drew rapidly ahead.
But the victory was short-lived. The
cant of the wind to the southwark held
and freshened to about six knots, max
ing it from this point close-haule
reach TO the mark. The Columbia rap
idly overlook her adversary, and cap
tain Sycamore, in desperation, conclud-
