Scribner's Magazine has seldom
had a better union of great sub
ject with the right man to treat it
than in the series which begins in
the January number on The
American Commercial Invasion of
Europe. Frank A. Vanderlip, on
resigning his position as Assistant
Secretaryof the Treasurylast spring
went to Europe with letters from
the highest American officials to the
ministers of finance and other lead
ers in industry and commerce in all
the great nations. Fresh from an
intimate association with the indus
trial and financial problems in this
country, he was peculiarly fitted by
aptitude and training to appreciate
the bearings of the problem abroad.
The keynote of his articles Is that
1.-The industrial world is as yet by
no means prostratd at our feet. We
have before us long campaign of
hard work 1t is the aim Of Mr..
vanderlip's articles to pointout the
directions in which this hard work
must be done. They have been
written with unusual clearness and
vivacity, so that the general reader
will find them as entertaining as
the capitalist and manufacturer
will find them instructive.
Illustrated short action has a
prominent place in this number.
The story of the return of an artist
from Paris to the "Pennyrile" dis
trict of Kentucky is most amusing
ly and even patheticaliy describe d
by Evan Macpherson. The illus
tratious by Kellar are reproduced

A GAMING.
The Finale of Meeting Of the
Fiscal Court.

A special meeting of the Fiscal
Court was held asst Thursday to
receive the reports Of the special
committees for receiving and dis.
bursting the turnpike funds. The
report made was ordered to record.

unanimously adosted:
I'VE, the members of the Chris
tian County Fiscal Court. in body
assembled. recognizing aud know
ing the faithfuioess Of Polk Cansler,
as Judge Of the Christian County
Court, do hereby wish to place
upon record our unqualified appre-
citation Of his services as such
Judge"
Squire J. T. Dixon, just before
adjournment, on behalf Of the Court,
presented Judge Cansler with a
beautiful gold-headed cane. AS
the court over which the Judge has
presided is equally divided in po-
litical faith, he doubly appreciates
the compliment thus bestowed. The
head Of the cane bears the follow
ing inscription; "Fiscal Court to
Judge Cansler-190l. -

Special to The Journal.
Madison, S. D., Feb. 24.-The Lake
county pesthouse has set the pace in the
conduct of smallpox hospital. People
have become accustomed to regard the
former dread disease as comparatively
harmless, but they are not prepared to
throw aside entirely the precautions that
the law has thrown around persons SUI
fering from this disease.
It has just developed that the attendant
at the Lake county institution, which is
situated on the edge Of town, has been in
the habit of giving at homes" to select
coterie of friends in one of the unoccu-
pied rooms of the pesthouse, which fact
in no way interfered with the general
pleasure of the occasion
A few nights ago there was a formal
function there. The guests assembled
and after a social session, light refresh
ments were served. The evening wore OF
delightfully."-, with fun and fro1fc, the
guests separating to go to theirhomes with
high appreciation of the entertainment OF
the evening.
The affair, however, coming to the ears
Of the authorities, seems to have won
their disapproval, and the health officer
has just finished quarantining the prem
Uses of the guests who we're present. Fol
the present, all card parties and visits
of young women have been tabooed at the
pesthouse. Though there are burt two
cases Of the disease there, and there Is
ample room for social events, there il
evidently disposition on the part OF the
authorities not to permit them.

LATHR0P HAS GONE AGAIN
Remained Away Two Years on a
Former OccasiOn-Dual
Personality.
Special to The journal.

Special to The journal. .-.
Ute, Iowa, Feb. "a. - Editor O. F..
Lathrcp, of the Ute independent, is again
indulging his penchant for disappearing.
He has left his wife, his newspaper and
his home, and gone, no one knews where.
About seven years ago, Lathrop went to
Belmond Iowa, bought newspaper plant,
and had his ready prints all ready for the
press, when he turned uO missing. For
two and a. half years ibis wife found no
trace Of him; and then she discovered him
in South Dakota, working at his trade as
a printer. They own their own nome
and newspaper in Ute, where they have
been five years.
Many hold to the theory that Lathrop
IS one of those u1lfathomable psycholog
ical cases in which men are said to have
dual personality. They believe that
Lathrop totally forgets he is married and
has a newspaper and takes on his char
acter of old days and goes in search of
work at the printers case.
Mrs. ;Lathroo was in Sioux City Satur-
day, looking for printer to take charge
OF the paper. ....-..

EXPORT OF CEDAR
British Columbia Government Will
No Longer Permit It.
SINGLE MEN ARE DELIGHTED
Expect a Monopoly in Northwest Ter.
ritOries and Advantages
Elsewhere.

Special to The Journal.
Vancouver, B. c.. Feb. 24-There is
much general satisfaction here-thougt
the cedar loggers who found a goo6
! market in Puget Sound are indignant
| over the resolve of the British Columbia
government to enforce the act prohibit
ing the export of cedar logs cut or
provincial land. 1t will reduce the log
gers prices and profit for. a time al
least, but the single men are jubilant
as they hope that the revenue will give
them almost monopoly of the North
west Territories and enable them to make
some inroads in the Pacific states.
Several new shingle mills of size are
being built in and about Vancouver. The
| measure is not wholly averse to Ameri-
can interests, as there is much United
States capital behind some of the shingle
mill undertakings. ...s
In all probability there is little to JUS
| tify the persistent booming of placer
ground at Horsefy, Cariboo. The boom
is largely forwarded by Quitting trad
ing firms at Ashcroft in the upper coun-
try. Practical prospectors who have
| lately visited the country do not hesitats
to describe the whole thing as fraud. II
| is said that 10000 men may rush hithel
this spring and certainly the British Co.
| lumbar government has been delugeC
with inquiries. ..,..
There is a general feeling here that the
practical monopoly involved in the Yukon
transferred to the Tancred -Treodgrer
| syndicate involves a transfer for small
consideration and without regard fol
miners interests Of public rights thai
could and should have been worked by the
government.
