TAMPERING WITH TRIFI RS
WE WALKED AFFAIR

N.
We walked away along winding lane
That led through dyllc country ways
A youth that thought neer would come again
Was ours again. As in those far-off days
We marvelled at the bueness Of the skies
We sought forget-me-nots, and laughed with 81
And l. | looked down deep into her eyes '
And she, in those old days, looked at M.
Within her bonnet hanging from my arm
Forget-me and buttercups were piled.
The rustling grasses caused her mild alarm
As OF snake then she looked UP and srni.a
Smiled lifelong trust into my eyes again
And so we walked fingers nterlaced
Herself, and youth, and me, adown the lane
And sadness walked beside us as we paced
Now some strange cloud effect did catch her .,,
Now did She stoop to find hidden bloom;
We saw the lazy hawk hang in the sky;
We smelled the woodland jssmine's swe,, -.
All it had been by strange spell p''aas,
Our years were fallen from us and we stood
In paths both had known. remembered well
All youth returned seemed sweet and life as,
We heard the peacock's cry sound far and sb,l,
And soft a breeze did rustic through the trees
And in the path that curved around the hill
The golden rod climbed upward to our knees;
And from above the yellow jasmine hung
And from hidden nook a mockbrd sanv
And DER heads red trumpet flowers swung
And meath our feet the fresh green grasses sprsu,
Aud then VIC turned us hack the evenings gloan
Hung hso-like about walked
Far of We the shining lights OF home
And with the sight age did come back and staIk,a
Beside and yet twain were glad
Glad to leave youth the woodlands solitude;
Glad to ly back to joys youth had not had

]. W. VAN SAINT DIES
Father Of Governor S. R. Van SAINT
of This State
PASSES AWAY ATT LIE CLAIRE, IOWA
He Had Reached Advanced Age of
93, but Death Came
Suddenly. ~~.e-. Il i,

T., John w. Van SAINT, father of Governor
S. R. Van SAINT, died at his home in LIE
Claire, Iowa, yesterday. The news of his
death, which was received late last night,
was severe shock to the governor
Though his father had reached the adj
vanced age of SO, there had been no warm
ing of so near an approach of the end.
John w. Van SAINT was born in New
Jersey, in 1909. He came west in 1881
and settled at Rock Island, III. He was
engaged until he retired from active
business life, in the repairing of steam
boats on the Mississippi river, and up to
the time of his death was partner with
his son, S. R. Van SAINT, in the steam
boat business. ~ -.
When Mr.. Van SAINT came west there
were no railroads in the country which
has since so greatly developed, and
within a radius of ten miles of where he
settled there are now three large and
prosperous cities. ~.r.,s ~,
Last October there was an Interesting
family reunion held at LIE Claire, when
the aged mans family gathered to tender
their congratulations to the father and
! mother, who had been married seventy
years. " 49, - ..-~.. -. -
The father was present at the inaugu-

FLAX SEED IN BOND.
Linseed Oil Makers Looking Up the
Manitoba Product.
THE OIL WOULD NOT BE EXPORTED
However, the Manufacturers Could
Get y Drawback on Export
Oil Cake.

Minneapolis fax handlers and linseed
OIL men are the latest to take up the
question of bringing the Manitoba product
into this market. Now that the millers
have satisfied themselves as to just what
they would have to do, in order to grind
Manitoba wheat in bond, the linseed oil
crushers have taken up the question and
are making inquiry along the same lines.
1t was reported on change this morn
ing, that. in addition to the inquiry OF
Saturday regarding the possibility of OBJ
tanning storage, capacity here for $6,0O0,-
900 bushels of wheat, there was letter
received by local elevator company ask
ing what capacity they had for carrying
Manitoba fax, if sent here to be stored
in bond.
The question of crushing flax into lin
seed oil in bond, and of grinding wheat
into flour in bond, are two different propo-
sitions. The miller could pay the duty
on Manitoba wheat, make flour of it, and
by exporting the flour, get the drawback
But the linseed oil crusher does not ex-
port his product. He does export prac-
tically all of. the oil cake. This oil cake
would average IS per cent OF the weight
but would not represent any such pro
portion of value which lies principally
in the oil obtained from the seed.

MAJEsTICs AT THE DEWEY

The Majestic Burlesquers have been well
coined back to the Dewey theater this week
by many admirers, although the personnel of
the company has been considerably changed
since their appearance here last season. The
opening burletta, "a Night at Rehearsal"
the book for which was furnished by the
Burke brothers, also presents that interesting
pair in the leading roles It is quick, snappy
and full of comedy. Musical numbers are
plentifully interspersed. The feature Of the
olio Is the appearance Of the four Banvards
in wonderful acrobatic and trapeze act.
There are many thrills in the turn but one
wishes that the smaller of the two children
was not in the act 1t is too small for that
kind Of work, although its elders seem abso-
lutely unerring. Gilbert Girard pleases with
his mimicry turn and his limitations of in
sects, and animals very realistic. The
Stantons do a funny little sketch, ''The
Rooster and the Maid The three Bastedo
Sisters are excellent dancers and that feature
Of their turn is wonderfully good. But why
do they sing? Probably because every dancer
would like to sing. Grace LaRue and her
pickaninnies, with Virginia Lee in black face
are very entertaining. Agnes A. Miles winds
the olio up with songs and the concluding
burletta, "K1ondke Pete Introduces the
Burke brothers and the rest of the company,
including wise Mike" the educated mule.

W. B. MoCORD RETlRES
Has Been Long in the Service-A1ded
in Settling Great Chicago
Fire Losses.

Colonel w. B. McCord, the veteran fire
insurance adjuster, has retired from the
business. He will retain an office in the
New York Life building and Will nave
charge Of the northwestern interests OF
the firm of McCord & Co. of Chicago, large
car builders and dealers in railway de-
vices of all kinds. ..
Colonel McCord is the Oldest fire in
surance man in point Of service in the
country. He came to Minneapolis from
Paris, ILL.,, twenty years ago May 1. HE
had charge of the first compact In Mime
apolis and took the first step toward ad-
justing rates in the city. He was also the
first exclusive adjuster. Mr.. McCord is
perhaps the most widely experienced in
surance man in the service. He has
passed through all phases Of the work
from local agent to adjuster, and has
taken part in the settlement of many large
and important claims. For the last year
he has refused outside work and has de-
voted his energies to the adjusting of
losses near home. So
In the course of talk concerning his
experiences as adjuster Mr.. McCord said:
I did field work for insurance companies
in 1868 and soon thereafter was adjusting
losses for the companies with which l was
employed. 1 participated in adjusting the
Chicago fire losses. These losses stranded the
company with which 1 was employed, and in
1872 engaged with other companies, and in
succeeding years passed from one to another,
because of inducements which were advanced
Finally in 1882 was offered the management
of the first company organized in Minneapolis,
in which position l was retained until Janu-
airy, 1884, when I resigned and Immediately
took up the business Of what Is generally
known as independent adjusting I then as
sumed the title of general adjuster, which is
more appropriate than independent adjuster.
have had most satisfactory patronage
from the companies and the relations have
| been Of the best. Now I retire from the bust
ness for a much needed rest.
