Supt. Hatfield, Of the Public Schools,
Has a Good Plan.
Will Ask the Board to Pace Seats in the
High School Auditorium Next
Session,
WILL FACILITATE LIBRARY PROJECT

Supt. G. B. Hatfield OF the local
public schools is preparing to request
the board to seat the big High school
auditorium next year, and will prob
ably ask that some of the money ap-
propriated for improvements be used
for this.
The teachers have been unable to
successfully give entertainments for
the exhibition of the class work this
year on account of this one thing, and
every effort has been put forth to
secure the seating Of the room. II
this is done, then Supt. Hatfield will
iaugurate course of lectures and
musical entertainments next year for
the benefit Of the school libraries, and
thinks, judging from the success Of
previous entertainments, that the
schools will be able to clear in the
year enough to place complete librar-
les IN al tne rooms.
The liquid air and the Wills imper-
sonation entertainments this yesr
were very successful and there is 10
doubt but that all others will be if
properly selected. supt. Hatfield al
ready has over twenty pieces of liter
ature advertising musical clubs, i'm,
personators, lecturers and other classes
OF entertainments, and will make a
selection and list Of those to be select
ed so that no delay will be occasioned
and the entertainments can be placed
on at the beginning of the year. All
literature so far received is from tire
Central Lyceum bureau.

WILL BIZ SOMETHING DOING
Trouble Feared Over Reported fav-
ors 10 Prisoners.
No Report Has Yet Been Made to the
Mayor, However

There is trouble brewing at the city
hall, If indications count for anything.
1t seems that the chain gang overseer,
according to the claim OF Lookup
Keeper Menifee, has been allowing
some of the prisoners to go home Sat
urday night and remain over Sunday.
In this way the lookup keeper is
knocked out of days compensation
for feeding them, in addition to run
ming the risk of losing the prisoners
entirely il they take a notion to es-
cape.
Marshal Grow said in regard to the
matter that he did not know what
will be done, but no such authority
was invested in the chain gang boss,
and the matter would be investigated.
Mayor Yeiser stated thnt nothing
whatever had been said to him, and
that II was the first he had heard of it.
1t is alleged that four prisoners were
allowed to spend Sunday at home, and
that Frank Eich had been allowed to
spend the night at home for some
time.

Captain Henry Bailey Returned From
indianapolis Empty Handed.
Governor 0urbin Would Not Give Up
Charles ST., Clair, Who is
Power There.
a HOT ROAST FOR LOCAL OFFICERS

Captain Henry Bailey Of the night
police force returned this morning
early from indianapolis, where he
went last Saturday night after
Charles st. Clair, the man arrested
here during the carnival for setting
up game on Broadway near
Fourth.
Captain Bailey had an eventual
trip. and after going TO Frankfort
and procuring reduisition for st.
Clair proceeded TO indianapolis.
When he made himself known, the
chief Of detectives was very cour-
teous, but informed him that in his
opinion, there was no chance Of get
ting Sc. Clair. who had been arrest
ed and released on bond. lie said
that st. Clair was worth about 500,
600, and was backed by every gam
bier In the city. He was power
and had a pull.
lyon might as we'll have come
here to get Gov. Taylor" he said.
Captain Bailey was introduced to
St. Glars lawyer, and the latter said
that his client would like to compro-
mise the case. Captain Bailey tele-
graphed to County Attorney Eugene
Graves and received areply that If
ST. Clair would pay $500 and expenses
the matter would be dropped, or words
to that effect. After a consultation
with St. Clair the attorney notified
Captain Bailey that they wouldn't pay
a cent, but would fight the case.
Commonwealth's Attorney Bradshaw
afterwards telegrsphed not to compro.
misc at all, but to employ lawyer if
necessary.
phe requisition was presented, but
Gov Durbin was at West Baden, and
no action was taken until he returned
the following day. He then consent
ed TO hear the case. Captain Bailey
had the papers and presented them,
but n crippled man named Gardner
who was here with ST. Clair testified
that they paid s35 for the privilege
of running the game, $40 being for
police protection. Captain Bailey de-
nounced this as lie, but was told by
the governor that his statement
would be heard later
II seems that the telegram of the
county attorney also figured in the
case. A speech was made by one of
the Indiana attorneys in which the
Kentucky authorities were skinned
numerically, and referred to as "body
snatchers.
The governor concluded that an
effort was being made only to get st.
Clair here and skin him for the bene-
fit of few officials, and he refused to
honor the requisition.
The whole thing had tinge of the
ludicrous about it to Captain Bailey,
who was only sent there after st.
Clair, and had no further interest in
the matter.
When he started home some of st.
Chairs crooked partners frankly in
formed him that even il the prisoner
had been turned over to him he would |
never have been allowed to leave In
annapolis with him.

Good Roads.

The subject Of good roadsfs being
discussed and talked about quite gem
orally throughout the entire country.
In the last four years New York state
has appropriated 100000 for good
roads to meet an equal sum provided
by the various counties. Gov. Odeu in
his message calls attention to the fact
that the careful maintenance Of good
road when built is an essential part of
the business. Minnesota has already
given attention to her roads, but q
systematic plan for the permanent Inn
provement Of the public thoroug ghfares
should be devised and followed out.
Older eastern states have meritorious
plans and our State will do we'll to pat
tern after them. - Window Reporter.

Rank, K. P, will have a chance to be
host to the first battalion of the first
regiment of the Uniform Rank at the
battalion field day and inspection
which is to be held the first week in
June at some place in the State. The
battalion intends to 60 outside the
cities this year and it is thought that
If the business men of Princeton will
take hold and help entertain the guests
an. invitation. will be extended the
mem bers of the first battalion. With
the Princeton company the battalion
consists of three Minneapolis compan-
les, and they would be accompanied by
the St. Paul company that goes to San
Francisco next summer to attend the
competitive drill The field day ex-,
ercises and inspection would be at
tended by over 800 people, mostly uni
formed K. P's who would come on
special train and remain during the
day. The local K. P's would be ex-
pected to entertain the guests while
here, and it would seem that the event
is we'll worth securing for Princeton.
It would bring large crowd to the
place and be one of the gala days of

St. Cloud Normal improvements.

Clarence G. Johnston, architect for
the board of control, was in the city
today to take up the matter OF
building the addition to the main
building of the St. Cloud normal school.
Senator Brewer secured an appropria-
tion from the legislature for this pur.
pose OF $4,000. The plans were. pre-.
pared two years ago and have the. ap.
prevail of the building committee OF
the normal board. 49,
The addition is to the main building,
which will be brought out in iron,
some forty or fifty feet, new roof will
be put on the entire main building,
and when completed will be a very
handsome building, and a great i'm.
provement as school building.
Mr.. Johnston drove to the reforma.
tory to consult with Superintendent,
Randall about some repairs to that in.
stitution, and returned to St. Paul this
afternoon.-St. Cloud Journal Press

Presidents Funeral.

: The citizens of Princeton will be CIV
en- an opportunity for the first time on
Saturday evening next (Feb. 1st) at
opera house of witnessing the entire
funeral Of our late president. You will
see the funeral from the time it leaves
the Millburn house, Buffalo, until it
arrives at the cemetery at Canton, thus
witnessing the greatest funeral ever
known in the world. Don't miss seeing
those pictures, as this is the only ma
chine on the road that has got the
presidents funeral. There are two
hundred other very interesting pic
lures that will also be shown. Tickets
on sale at the usual place.
This is what the St. Cloud Journal
Press says about the entertainment:
'Balan's Biascope entertainment at
the Davidson Saturday evening gave
the very best satisfaction. Many who
attended the performance the evening
before were present at the second
entertainment, which is good enter
tainment. The many pictures we're the
best ever seen at the Davidson, those
of the Mckinley funeral being very
clear and distinct, conveying an excel
lent idea, true in every detail, of the
most important funeral ever held in
America. The theater would have
been crowded had it not been for the
storm which prevailed. The attrac-
tion is good one and worthy of liberal
patronage.

PRINCETON MILE THURSDAY

picked over that to-day there is no
great number left south of the Red
lake.
Along the Minnesota & International
railroad in this county but few scat
tered homesteads are left for entry.
The road pursues northeasterly di-
rection, and most of the land has been
taken up along its survey clear to the
Canadian boundary. A great deal is
taken for its timber, but there is also a
great many settlers who are building
permanent homes and starting new
villages.
The continuation of the Virginia &
Rainy Lake River road next summer
will doubtless have somewhat similar
effect in Northern St. Louis county,
and there may be the usual rush for

Princeton Millers Buy a Mill.

Joseph Craig and J. P. Zimmerman
of the Princeton Roller Mill Co., and
Geo. Dielman, brother-in-law of J.
Zimmerman, have purchased a
roller mill at Long Lake, in
Hennepin county and will organ
ganize a company to be known as the
G: D. z. Milling Co., which will oper-
ate the mill. The mill is practically
new and was built only three years
ago, but has not been operated much.
1t is a three story mill and fully
equipped for doing a good milling
business. The deal was consummated
this week and yesterday Messrs. Craig
and Dielman, and Chas. Carlson who
has been with the Princeton roller
mill for some time, went down to Long
Lake to take charge of the property
and place it in shape for operating.
Mr.. Dielman will look after the busi-
ness management of the mill while Mr..
Carlson, who is an experienced miller.
will be head miller. While the new
company will be entirely independent
of the Princeton Roller Mill Co.. the
two mills will be operated under a
joint business management and the
Long Lake mill will be in one sense an
auxiliary to the Princeton mill whose
business has been growing at very
rapid rate the last few years, and un'
der the new arrangement the company
will be able to better handle its in.
creasing trade. Mr.. Craig has made
the Princeton mill one of the best
roller mills in the northwest and its
flour and milling products rank up to
a very high standard. He will give
the Long Lake mill much Of his per.
sonal supervision and place it on a par
with the Princeton mill. The Long
Lake mill has a capacity of seventy
five barrels of -four per day.
