1t may not We generally known that the
best and largest herd of Guernseys now in
Minnesota is to be found at Woodend, on
the farther side of Lake Minnetonka. It
is owned by A. G. Loring of the North
western Consolidated Milling company, of
this city. A year ago last March Wood
end, with its 200 acres and more, was un-
broken forest. Over its entire surface
grew sugar naples, Eastwood and giant
elms, as they had grown long centuries
before. Now there is a beautiful dwelling
looking down through the trees upon the
lake, a handsome barn and other out
buildings, with the necessary furnishings,
greenhouse that is model of its kind,
and garden in which grow many varie-
ties Of small fruits and vegetables
Roads have been made through the for
ests, forty acres of forest have been re-
moved, root and branch, and the best and
largest herd of Guernseys to be found in
all Minnesota has been gathered up from
several states and brought to this beauti-
full home.
When the contingent arrives that is
now on the way, this herd will comprise
some forty-two animals. In it is the
famous Mary Marshall, 1904, the queen of
dairy cows, judged by the record she made
at the PanAmerican exposition. Not
withstanding the heavy pressure of the
contest Of last year, when thus competing
against the world, this famous cow is in
perfect health and vigor, so much so that
she would seem to be able again to repeat
what she did last season. At the head of
the herd is the famous Primeval 4,S12
This sire, of excellent individual form, is
rich in the blood of the great Benjamin
1881, for years invincible in the west.
No animals will be allowed to remain
In the herd that are not up to a high
standard. Much, therefore, may be ex-
| pected from this herd in coming years.
Much could be said about the indi-
vidual animals that have thus been
gathered to Woodenud, but that is not
the object of this paper. 1t is rather tc
emphasize the fact that in thus building
up, a land rich in the blood of the best
! Guernseys that America can produce, and
also correct in Individual form, its owner
is doubtless building better than he
knows. He is bringing into the state a
herd of dairy cattle which cannot but ex-
ercise a potent influence for good in
Strengthening the interests of the dairy
| which are fast becoming superlatively
great within our borders. 1t gathers
such animals to a common center and
makes them accessible to our people be-
cause of their proximity. The good
blood, therefore, that may be expected te
go out from this herd may be compared
to rivulets Of potency that will flow

DIDN'T KNOW CHRIS
A Camp That Entertained the Fugi-
tive Norbeck.
TALKED TO HIM ABOUT REWARD
But Didn't Recognize Him and So
Missed That Reward of
$1,000. =

Twenty-Five men in George Turnham's 8
camp on the Minnesota river are bewail- :
ing lack of perception that cost them
$1,000. They had Chris Norbeck with
them one whole night, gave him supper
and breakfast, even talked with him about
his own mysterious disappearance and
never suspected that the stranger they
were. entertaining was the much wanted
fugitive. .-.
Two weeks ago young Turnham met
stranger at the Bloomington blacksmith
shop who asked for ride. Bloomington,
by the way, is only three miles from the
city limits beyond Washburn Park. The
stranger was tired and had gone to sleep
in the smithy. He was dressed in pair
of poorly fitting overalls and a checked
Jumper and represented himself as be-
ing hobo" out of work. His most
striking facial feature was a large and
luminous nose.
Young Turnham gave the stranger a
lift" to the gravel camp on the Mime
sofa river. The stranger remained for
the night after having been supplied with
food. He went Immediately to sleep and
slept like log. There was no work for
him there and he left the next morning
making his way toward Chaska.
ALI know now that their unknown guest
was Christopher Norbeck, but he never
betrayed himself and although the men
talked about the reward they never sus-
pected until too late that the ''hobo' was
Norbeck ~" .tf

DWYER WILL
When He Learns How the Council
Spoiled His Plan.
A GERRYMANDER IN 10TH WARD
The Aiderman's Fellow Councilmen
Look for an Explosion ON
DvversS P0rl.

James Dwyer, ice man and alderman Of
the tenth ward, will again be due to mix
things up bit at the city hall when he
gets time to read the official record of
the last council meeting and learns of
the shrewd game his colleagues, aided
and abetted by the other aldermen,
played on him that evening ry.-.., ...s
Two meetings ago, at Alderman
Dryers instance, an ordinance was
passed making some changes in the pre-
cinct boundaries of the tenth ward, neces-
STATED by changes made by the legisla-
ture last winter in the senatorial dis
tricts boundaries. After the ordinance
was passed and it was too late to put in
protest, 1t came out that some very
skilful methods had been used by Alder
man Dwyer in making the new arrange
ment.
All of the republican candidates for Of
fice and all the leading workers OF that
party were punched in one precinct, leav-
ing the others almost wholly undefended
against future democratic attacks.
The party leaders got together and de-
oided that this was a situation that
wouldn't do at all in the face Of hard
campaign this fall, and they arranged
with Alderman Sibley Of the Tenth that
he should father an ordinance amending
the one just passed, knocking out the
Dwyer gerrymander and leaving things in
shape for fairly equal contest in that
ward.
1t was planne dto bring the matter ur
Friday night and to hasten things by
asking for unanimous consent in intro
duce the ordinace at that meeting, thus
saving two precious weeks. ., ~
The city council spent much of last
Friday evening in scrapping over the
construction of sewer in the tenth ward
| and Alderman Dwyer was in the thickes'
of it leading the opposition. Part Of the
| contest was fought before the sewer com
mittee in a side room.
Taking advantage Of Alderman Dwyer':
presence there, Alderman Sibley sprung
his request for unanimous consent, ant
it was promptly given. Alderman Dwye
was so interested in his sewer issue tina
he was oblivious of everything else tina
happened that night and he hasn't Learned
yet of the action in the matter. His fel
low aldermen dread the explosion that i
| sure to follow his awakening.

Imperial Council Will Likely Take
: ..-@ Action ON 1t. -. -.
London, July s.-There is increasing prob
ability that the imperial conference will take
advisory action respecting a steamship sub
sidy. The question would be readily settled
If the imperial government would meet Aus
tralia, New Zealand and Canada half way in
the payment of subsidies. colonial officer,
who is we'll informed on this subject, says a
combination could be formed in twenty -four
hours If the home government would agree
to divide expenses with the colonies There
is no evidence that the Board of Trade and
the admiralty have gone further than to
discuss informally the payment of one-third
Of the mail subsidies required for keeping
the lines out Of foreign control and thereby
assuring the independence Of the British
shipping interests Pressure from the con-
ference may be exerted in favor of more lib
eral grants from the British treasury. This
result is more probable than the adoption Of
preferential customs, The steamship subsidy
plan favored by the conference Is not likely
to include any line like the Cunard, running
between british and American ports.

TROOPS In CUBA
ORDERED HOME.
Reduction Of America
Forces Going Forward.
MILITARY DISTRICTS ABOLISHED.
\ Squadron of the Eighth Cavalry
Withdrawn on Recon- m en- dntiOn of
Governor Wood - Garrison No
Longer Necessary mt Santiago
Force Now Three Thousand Men.

Acting upon the recommendation OF
General Wood. Military Governor of Cuba.
Secretary Root yesterday authorized an
other reduction in the American military
forces in the island.
1t is the intention of the Secretary OF
War to withdraw from Cuba. as rapidly as
conditions will permit, the troops now
there. He will depend upon General Wood
for suggestions from time to time as TO
what reduction shall be made, and it is
expected that within few months the
force will be diminished fully one-haif
its present strength.
Military Districts Abolished.
Not only has General Wood recommend
ed the withdrawal OF troops. but he has
advised the War Department that the
military district of Santiago has been
abolished. This ends all OF the sub
ordinate military districts OF Cuba, and
brings the entire military force. which
now consists OF about 5000 men, under
the direct charge OF General Wood at
Havana.
The troops ordered withdrawn were one
squadron of the Eighth Cavalry. stationed
at Puerto Principe. mis- squadron com
posed the entire garrison at that point.
and General Wood. in his letter to Secre-
tary Root. says that from a careful in
spection of the situation in that vicinity
he does not consider the maintenance Of
a garrison there necessary.
Withdrawal of other Troops.
The next step following the abolishmeut
of the military district OF Santiago. which,
up to this time. has been under the COM
mand OF General Whitside. Will be the is.
suance of orders for the return to the
United States of part of the Tenth Cav
airy, which has been stationed at Santi-
ago for three years.
