aor+ative is J. A. Del Solar, who is con-
nocted with H. Schieffelin & Co.
The game Of pelota as described by
Mr. Del Solar seems to correspond in
many respects to handball. 1t is play
oil nv four. six or eight players with
very lively ball. The scene of the con-
+oet is between two high walls, sep
oroted from each other by perhaps
hundred feet. Back and forth between
these walls the ball is driven by the
nlavers. their hands being protected by
stiff gloves, having a sort of extension
bevond the finger tips which gives
greater propelling force. 1t is said
that the game is very exciting and
that the matches played in Havana
are the occasions of heavy betting.
Both agility and strength are required
in the sport, and the American officers
stationed in Cuba have favored 1t as
an athletic exercise for the soldiers.

The proposed building on Central
Park West will be simply large COW
cred arena although the front facing
Central park will be designed as a
five story structure, with cafe on the
ground floor and a rathskeller below.
The arena itself, which will be sur
rounded by seats accommodating 5000
persons, will, it is believed, be the
largest in the city with the exception
of Madison Square Garden.
Plans for the new structure are now
being prepared, and work upon it will
be begun early this spring. 1t is un-
derstood that the price paid for the
site was something over 100000, while
the entire enterprise will call for an
investment of about 100000.

TREMENDOUS TRADE.
That is What North Dakota Has to Offer
For the Coming Year.

A. E. Bezoier who has just returned
from an extensive trip through north
ern North Dakota, says that section of
the northwest will turn the greatest
volume of trade and general business
in its history this fall and winter
Harvest is progressing reasonably well
and general conditions are the best
that North Dakota has seen for many
years. Flax said Mr.. Bezoier,
''has done great things for North Da-
kota. It has made farmers indepen-
dent and put merchants in better
position to enlarge their trade and pay
their bills. When some of the west
ern counties were forced to seed fax
a few years ago because the weather
delayed wheat seeding beyond the
limit, they regarded it as poor
makeshift They were so accustomed
to wheat seeding that they consider
ed prosperity impossible without it.
The returns surprised them and as a
result it is doubtful if over one acre
in fifty of the newer land in some of
the western counties was sowed to
wheat this year.
''The settlement of the Mouse River
valley, in which much progress was
made this year, is important It is a
fertile region and will contribute
| lare civ to the stock and grain resour
ces of North Dakota in the next few
years.
Business men generally are ex-
pecting tremendous trade this fall.
I believe that the buying to replenish
broken stocks will give Minneapolis
wholesalers the liveliest fall trade
they have had in years. "-Minneapo-

BAD NEWS, IF TRUE.
Prices of Meat on Range or CRASHED
Cattle Soon to be Lowered.

Prices OF Meat on Range or Grass-Fed
Cattle Soon to be Lowered.
h. B. Van Name, manager of the
Swift company's packing interests in
st. Paul, said few DAYS ago that it
was likely lower prices would be made
on meats at the retail shops all over
the country before many days.
Within the past week or ten days
there has been drop of from so to Is
cents in the price of range cattle at
the stock yards, and drop of an even
dollar at Chicago. This is only on
range or grass cattle, the price of
corn-fed cattle remaining the same.
1t is true that there has been drop
in the price Of range cattle, said
Mr.. Van Name. GAS to the effect
upon the price of meats 1 cannot say.
However, there has been no change
in the price Of corn fed cattle, and
there is not likely to be. They are
very high. Corn fed cattle are so ex-
pensive at the present time that it
hardly pays to handle them and we do
not want them.

cultural.

Fugitives From Justice Coming to the
North Dakota Harvest Fields.

A special from Winnipeg to eastern
dailies says that many drunken har-
vesters who came from eastern Cana
dian provinces are fugitives from
justice. Two score or more who are
badly wanted by Canadian officers are
said to be hiding somewhere near the
international boundary. An armed
posse may possibly effect capture
While en- route to Winnipeg and
three or four stations this side Of Fort
William the harvesters rushed from
the coaches at every stopping place
in body and after quickly disposing
of restaurant keepers, looted the
establishments and then tried to de-
molish them. They caused reign
of terror for distance of over 200
miles. Several restaurant men are
reported badly injured. Getting
wind that they were wanted, the
men hurridly left the coaches here
and went south to the Dakota line.

Edmore Citizens Meet and Declare Agains
Piggers and Tin Horn Gamblers.

The little town of Edmore, which
recently was the scene of a double
tragedy, an account of which appeared
in these columns two weeks ago, has
started the ball rolling for the en-
forcement of the state prohibitory
law, and has also given fair warning
to tin horn gamblers and other lawless
characters, to make themselves scarce
in that community.
The people of Ednore adopted the
following resolutions. which may set
pace for other localities similarly
afflicted:
Resolved, That we, the citizens
of Edmore, Ramsey county, N. D.,
in mass meeting assembled, do here.
by denounce the unlawful traffic in
intoxicating liquors and the violation
of our state laws with regard to
gambling and gambling houses in
our village, and do hereby pledge our
selves to do all in OUT power to sup
press the same and to bring violators
of the law to justice. F."
A committee Of three was appointed
to take the matter in hand and to se-
cure monthly subscriptions to pay a
temporary marshal until such time as
the city can be Incorporated. The
committee are as follows: II. R.
Aslakson, George Hanson and C. A.
Currier. George Hanson, deputy
sheriff of Ramsey county, will in all
probability be chosen as marshal.

SEEING IS BELIEVING.
At Least That Seems to Be the Case With
Red River Valley Editor,

Recently the editor of the Grafton
Record made trip through this Sec
tion of country and as far north as
the Turtle Mountains, and this is
what he saw and writes about:
1.-THE average inhabitant of the
Red River valley has little conception
of the wonderful development of the
western and northwestern portion of
our state until he actually sees it. It
was the EDITORS privilege to take a
little trip last week up into the Turtle
Mountain country and we were
amazed at the evidences of growth,
thrift and prosperity which presented
themselves on every side. The crops
OF wheat, fax, oats and barley are
just as good, if not 0etter, than in the
valley, practically every acre of avail
able land is under cultivation. The
towns and cities along the G. N. road
are building up rapidly We did not
pass through single town in which
there were not from dozen to fifty
new buildings being erected, and
many of them substantial brick
blocks. Lakota in spite of severe
blow from hail, is growing rapidly.
Devils Lake is booming. Churchs
Ferry, Cando, Bisbee, Rolla and other
towns are pushing ahead. This years
crop, if secured in good shape, will
place this section of our state in such
condition that it can Withstand one or
two crop failures -

DREIBUND TO BE RENEWED.
German and italian Chancellors Hold

London. March 31.-The Rome cor

referring to the meeting at Venice be-

lor, Count Won Buelow, and the Italian

to be in the Italian sphere, Italy has
no intention of occupying it. The

GERMANY FEARS REPRISALS.
to React on Industries
of Empire.

Berlin, April 1.-The German pre-
served meat dealers, strenuous allies of
the American packers in opposing the
prohibition against the introducing of
meats prepared with borax into Ger
many, are organizing in their efforts to
influence the German government not
to enforce the proposed regulations
against such meats, and declare they
would work them great injury.
1t is understood in Frankfort that
evidence of certain Chicago medical
men of good reputation will be brought
forward to support the contention that
the use of boraX to preserve meat is not
injurious. Several influential. newspa-
perS here agree today as to the reason
for the statement. which was maze by
the government in the North German
Gazette Saturday in which it was ex-
planned hat sanitary conditions alone
had dictated the exclusion from the
German markets of meats prepared
with boraX.
In this connection the Vossische lei
tung says the crews of the German war
vessels have for a long time been fed
on meat prepared with boraX and with
no harmful effects. The navy doubtless
continues to use such meat when
abroad. This paper also points out
that the public health in the United
States and Germany has not been in
jured by the consumption of borax in
meat. In the governments statement
on this subject, says the Vossiche lei
tung. hope is expressed that preserva-
tives other than borax will be found.
This is illusory, since the other pre-
servatives. are much more costly than
boraX.
The paper concludes with saying:
Our industries must foot the bill and
receive severe blows as a result of
American reprisals for the exclusion
of boraX prepared meats"

IT'S A SANITARY MEASURE.
Germany So Declares Relative to Ex-
clusion of Meats Preserved
With Borax.

Berlin. March 31.-The North Ger
mar Gazette this morning contains an
authoritative expression of the govers-
ment's position in relation to the pro-
hibition of meats prepared by boracic
acid, with special reference to the as
sertion that the prohibition is aimed
against the United States. The article
begins by calling attention to the state
ment that the view prevails in the
United States that the prohibition is due
to economic rather than sanitary
causes, and adding that such assump-
ton is wholly incorrect.
The paper asserts that purely sanitary
considerations dictated the prohibition
of boraX and other chemicals, and that
the imperial health office, which is
composed of prominent hygienists from
all parts of the empire, is pr%onouncedly
in favor of the prohibition. 1t says
further that the Paris hygienical con-
gross of 1900 declared against the use
Of all antiseptic substances for the
treatment of fresh food materials.
Should boraX come into extensive use
in the German meat industry, the pa
per says, many voices among the masses
will demand further permission for the
use Of borax. Nevertheless the govern
ment, for weighty sanitary reasons, has
decided to prohibit its employment in
the preparation of meats and for COM
mercial purposes generally. This nat
urally makes it necessary to exclude
foreign meats prepared with forbidden
chemicals. Otherwise foreign meats
will be given the preference over those
of the domestic production.
There can be absolutely no talk
concludes the article. "about the meas
ure being especially directed against the
United States. 1t is equally against the
domestic and foreign stock. Moreover,
Germany is not the only state to pro-
hibit meats so prepared. as in France,
Belgium and Switzerland similar pro-
hibition is already in force"
