IT IS CONSTITUTIONAL.
The Somerville Law is so Pronounced by
the Supreme Court.

The Somervilie law. requiring
foreign corporations doing business
in this State, to file their articles Of
incorporation with the secretary of
State, apd also to pay certain fees
for the protection given them in the
courts of Minnesota, has been held
valid in recent decision of the SUI
preme Court.
This law was passed at the 1899
session. 1t was pat through the
senate by Senator>Somerville before
the corporations from other States
got on to its real import, and they
at once commenced making a fight
against the measure in the house.
There the fight for the bill was led
by Representative Larson of this
county, Representative Jacobson
and several others. After slight
amendment and one of the most no.
ticeable fights of that session the
bill passed the house and was re-
turned to the senate for concur
renee in the amendment. After a
little difficulty Senator Somerville
succeeded in having the bill passed,
as amended, and it was shortly
afterwards signed and became a
law.
The first attempt to test the con-
stitutionality of the law was the
case of the Heilman Brewing Co., a
foreign corporation, appellant, vs..
John PlemeisI. Waterville saloon
keeper, respondent, although all Of
the big corporations of other States,
doing business in this State, had
their attorneys look into the matter
thoroughly and satisfied themselves
that it was stitutional before
they complied with the terms of the
same. In the case Of the brewing
company VS.. Plemeisl that company
sued the latter for $195. so. due, by
reason OF liquor sold the latter.
Plemeisls S attorney set up the de-
fense that the company had not com
piled with the. State law. Before
trial of the case the brewing COM
pany complied. but under the
courts ruling It's compliance was
too late to give it standing in the
PIemeisl case.
The syllabus in the Piemeisl case
is as follows:
A foreign corporation doing busi-
ness in this State without first com
plying with the provisions of laws
of 1899, chapter six. cannot maintain
an action in the courts OF this State
upon any contract or demand grow
ing out of such unlawful business.
Nor will compliance by it with the
statute after the making of any such
contract, or after the commencement
of an action thereon, remove the bar
of the statute. which closes the
doors of the courts of the State to
foreign corporations doing business
in the State in defiance of its laws.

The New Sheep

Among the many improvements upon
the Minnesota State Fair grounds this
year, the new sheep exhibition building
and the rebuilt grand stand are the most
conspicuous. The sheep building, which
is shown above, stands in the southwest
corner of the grounds, west of the group
Of cattle barns. 1t is the largest sheep
exhibition building in the world. It's di-
mensions are about 150x150 feet while to
the ridge from the ground is about thirty
feet. Through the center runs wide
aisle over which the roof Is elevated, al
lowing for many large windows and ample
light in every part of the building. On
the two roofs, at the, other side OF the
building are a number of sky-lights and
around the sides Of the building are
large number of windows. All the win
dows are made to slide to the sides so
that they may be opened to their full
size. 4 &,
The sheep pens, in this new building,
will be made Of patent wire fencing which
will allow the best possible opportunity
Of seeing the sheep as we'll as greatly i'm
proving the appearance of the interior
OF the building. There will be broad
aisles through every part of the building
and the size Of the structure is so great
that fully 600 sheep can be placed upon
exhibition without crowding. In the CEN
ter of the building there will be a small
amphitheater where the sheep will be

date
But the colored woman wears human
hair, at least, which is what many white
women don't wear. These women buy
cheap 9o-cent switches that look and feel
all right--for about two weeks. After
that they simply dry up, lose all their
gloss and feel like SO much string. They
are nothing but horse hair, horses names,
bleached and manipulated with oil for
temporary effect. Or may be they are
made Of Chinese hair, which IS lite bet-
ter than horse hair. Or perhaps it's the
tail of the yak, that funny blonde beast
that shows up sometimes in a big menag-
erie. -
Fine golden hair is not,tthe most ex-
pensive. The costliest hair is gray, pro-
vided the shade is perfect. like steel gray
or snow white. If the shade Of any switch
isn't quite right, woman leaves us a
sample of her own hair and we mix the
colors for her extra locks. just as an art
ist would mix his tints.' We put in so
many ounces of a darker shade and so
many Of one or more lighter shades, till
we reach exactly the right combination:
A switch Of fine gray hair, thirty to thir-
ty-two inches long, Is worth as much as
$50, while a leading lady can, get very

"Hair-your own or somebody else's
that you've bought-can be kept alive in
fine condition almost indefinitely, If you
wash it occasionally with soft wat er and
esometimes use mild soap. When I was a
boy in Rhenish Russia there was an old
baroness lived near our village, who regu-
larly washed and dressed the yellow hair
Of pretty ancestor Of hers-at least the
hair was pretty. It hung out of the end of
coffin in the vaults Of the baroness
family. This ancestor, according to the
gossip Of old folks in our village, had been
buried since the time of the great Fred
erick. Whether the st ory was true that
she was court beauty and that she had
made her family swear to preserve her
hair uncut for 800 years, I'm not going to
guess. But I remember very we'll that,
down in that black vault, her golden hair
looked like fairy's.''

NO MORE STREET. FAIRS
Some of Them Indorse 1t While
Others Regret That Fairs
Are TnbOOed.

The action of the grand lodge at Salt
Lake City in putting street fairs and
carnivals under the ban hereafter is ap
plauded by some Elks in Minneapolis and
condemned by others. The clean, success
full show put on by the local lodge Of Elks
in June has prejudiced most Of them in
favor of exhibitions of that character.
Many are to be found, however, who say
that the grand lodge did right, notwith-
standing that there were no Objectionable
features of any description at the Mime
apolis fair.
1.-The public had absolutely no fault to
find with our carnival" said George Sea-
ton, ,"but ours was an exception to many
carnivals of the kind in provincial and
frontier communities, where the rowdy
element has a chance to demonstrate and
give the order all the resulting discredit.
AS a rule, while the Elks' fairs them
selves have been all right, think the de-
cision of the grand lodge will tend to i'm
prove the standing Of the order by head

have done us the most damage In the

We have built 1900 miles of new rail-
