many excellent judges of a good thing

speak, of very influential section of the

But we have now the largest the best,
the most widely known state fair in the

And this fair is known in every other state
as the Minnesota fair.

vertise Minnesota no more than it would

well informed might even imagine that
although the fair was held at Hamlne,

would imply generally that that thing was
product of the northwest merely, that it

due credit for her own products.

turned into northwestern exposition, the

single state is the northwest. And Min

a northwestern exposition didn't concern

FARMERS SAY NOT So
No Populist or Republican Either
Has Set His Dog on Young
Teddy Roosevelt.
Substance of Their Offending Waste
Warn All Hunters to Keep
Off Their Farms.

Special to The Journal. %
Arlington, S. D., Sept. SIT is not true,
as reported by some searcher for a SEN
sational story, that the farmers Of this
locality. either populist, republican, demo-
crat, socialist or non-classified, have set
the dogs upon young Teddy Roosevelt to
show their dispeasure of the invasion Of
their fields for chicken hunting purposes
All such reports are not based on fact and
are unworthy Of any credence.
An especial effort has been made in
this vicinity by citizens Of all political and
religious creed to enforce the game laws.
Chicago & North Western officials have
been here to hunt many times before and
they have driven across fields, damaging
flax and corn and late small grain, with
out making any sort Of restitution and
holding, seemingly, the rights of owners
In supreme contempt. Then, again., east
ern sportsmen make it a point to be on
the ground ready for action on Aug. 31st.
and usually there are many of them
that the farmers have no chance to hunt,
even on their own farms. Generally by
Sept 3, when the fuslade Of the eastern
men has reached its height, the chickens
are either all killed or are so wild that
the sport is practically ruined. 81 =,
Populist and republican farmers alike
have posted notices to check hunting on
their farms, but these were aimed no
more at young Teddy, because he is the
son Of the president and conspicuous in
public thought just now, than the OBJ
scurest hunter who might come here.
The farmers simply decided to band to-
gether and prohibit all transients, espe-
cially Chicago & North Western officials,
| who largely make up young Roosevelt
party, from hunting, on their land AS
said before the feeling against the rail-
road men is strong because they are old
offenders. 4.: @%a5f =E<5 Ell lza.5-s.

very ordinary incident has come the ex-

self-respecting farmers Of this region

Story of Constantine Cara.

Constantine Cara, one of the few who
succeeded in escaping from Morne Rouge
after the explosion, found refuge on the
steamer Esk. She was. with twelve 9TH
ers, in her house when Pelee gave its first
warning of the disaster which it was
about to pour upon the village. She said
that the first explosion destroyed many
houses. She was hurled with great force
against the wall Of the room in which she
was sitting. On recovering from the shock
she ran outside. and there saw three sep
arate tongues of fire sweeping down from
the mouth Of the volcano, The earth
shook with so great violence that she
could not retain her feet. She was blinded
by the glare of the flames.
The heat was so terrific that her flesh
was bliStered. She awaited the. dea tn
which she believed to be inevitable. For
tunately the fire swept a little to one side
of her and she was saved.
