out of the vast productive capacity of this country, said Senator Hanna, have forced the condition of aggregation of capital-the creation of wealth in con- crete form. To absorb it and to render 1t valuable as an industrial investment we have industrial peace. The Civic Fedora tion is beginning to lay the foundation of such a result. It's work must be prin- cipally educational.
 If we have not the sympathy of the people," he continued. we cannot hope to succeed. My experience of thirty years as an employer has taught me that the employer is expected to go more than half way in meeting the employe.

EVOLUTION OF ICE CREAM
People Who Lived Three Hundred Year
Ago Had No knowledge
Chicago Chronicle.

Chicago Chronicle.
That most delectable and tOothsome OF
corrections known as ice cream dates its
origin to period less than three centuries
distant. 1t was not, when first placed be-
fore the consumer, the delicious compound
it now is. 1t has been brought to its
present state of perfection by gradual
process of evolution from the original
idea. In the beginning of the seventeenth
century iced fruits and cups made of ice
first appeared at banquets. Like many
other good things for the table, ice cream
claims Paris for its birthplace, and yet it
was not Frenchman, but an Italian
named Precope Couteaux who first
thought out the idea of icing lemonades
and liquors. From this was gradually
evolved over 100 years later ice cream, or
iced butter as it was then called, from
its resemblance to that article Of food.
While all civilized nations serve ices in
great variety, we are apt to think of ice
cream as an essentially American dish,
probably because frozen desserts OF all
kinds are more generally used in this
country than in any other. Ice cream first
made its appearance in America at Phila-
delphia at the end Of the eighteenth CEN
tury. It was then considered a great lux
ury, and consequently was rarely seen ex-
cent on state occasions. It was not with
in the reach of ordinary mortals until 1900.
when an Italian confectioner established
an ice cream house. as it was then called,
at Germantown, a suburb of Philadelphia.

ExTRAVAGANcE IN RAMsEYcoUNTY
Grand Jurors Pass Severe Criticism on
County Commissioners.

The Ramsey county grand jury COM
pleted its. work yesterday and adjourned
without date after submitting report
in which the board Of county commits
sioners is severely criticized for loose
business methods in connection with the
erection Of the new Jail. The report re-
lates that Jail expenditures have already
reached 100000, and predicts a deficit
in the fund of from 100000 to $4,000 be-
fore the work is completed. The change
from round bar construction to fiat is
declared to be foolish and it is said that
the change should have saved the county
money instead Of having resulted in a
$4,000 increase. The jail accounts are
declared to be unbusinesslilxe and too gen
eral. A new method Of bookkeeping is
recommended for the county auditors and
trea surer' ssoffces.

Visions Of loneliness on the Street and at the
Play That Do Not Come From the Homes of
the Cabinet the Diplomats, or High Official
Sets, But From the Ranks of Those Who
Engage in Daily Toll for Uncle Sam

In dress these glorious creatures are
not exceeded by the women OF higher
rank. As good taste as that which marks
the attire OF her wealthier sister almost
invariably characterizes the dress OF the
department girl On f Street after 4
o'clock-in the IF Street parade" as it is
called-it is impossible TO distinguish the
woman of riches and rank from woman
who earns her living in a Government
department.
The significance OF this is plain. 1t
means that the real distinction between
the two is to be found in the difference
in wealth. No perceptible difference is
there In dress nor are the marks of good
breeding in the one lacking in the other.
That these things are so should not and
does not surprise anyone Everyone IA
miliar with the personnel OF the depart
ments knows that there are in them
ladies of some of the Oldest and most
distinguished families in America. Names
famous In United States history are on
the rolls Of every department. The gen.
tiiity of all sections OF the country is
represented in every branch of depart
mental service.
Perhaps the fortunes of war. force of
circumstances OF business nature, or an
unselfsh devotion TO country were factors
IN making II necessary for these women
to seek employment in Government Of
fee. An honorable name, a priceless
treasure. was the only inheritance OF
many of them and work Of some sort
had TO be done TO provide the comforts
OF lie. Others are in Office because they
are not content to live in idleness. To
ENJOY an independence OF their own pro-
viding is an incentive to many girls and
women who try TO secure appointments
in Washington.
Be those things as they may. circum-
stances OF whatever nature have sent to
the executive departments Of the Capital
