TO SCORE FANCY BUTTER
Two Minnesotans Asked to Serve OF
Judicial STAFF.

Two Linnesotans Asked to Serve on
Judicial STAFF.
Minnesota is again at the top OF the
heap in sbutt er honors." Yesterday B. D.
White of the state dairy and food depart
ment received proposition from the COM
mittee in charge of the National Cream
cry Buttermakers' association to assist
in scoring in the six months national but
ter conte which is to be held soon.
Professor T. L. Hacker OF the state
school of agriculture received similar
proposition. If they accept this state
will have the honor of two members on
the scoring force of this most important
contest.
| When the contest was first suggested
| the committee, in estimating the POSSIBLE
| ity of securing the necessary number Of
entries. counted on Minnesota to furnish
one-third of the total number. Within a
week it was plain that their estimate was
none too high. Out Of the first fifty en-
tries this state had twenty-four. Out of
the first 100 Minnesota had forty one, and
now that the contest is assured, Minneso-
| ia has more than one-third OF the total
entries.
The contest will be the first OF it's kind
ever held and will bring the but termakers
of the United States in position to COM
pete with each other.

LIKED THE BRAND
In Sharks Stomach Is Found Head
Of Minneapolis Flour Barrel.

A resident of this city who has just re-
turned from the south tells a remarkable
story, which sounds rather unusual, but
which Is vouched for by the best authori-
ties.
A few months ago large salt water
shark was captured at Miami, Florida. 1t
measured over fourteen feet in length and
was one OF the largest specimens ever
caught on the coast. The big fish was cut
open and in its stomach was found the
head of -four barrel marked with the
name and trademark Of we'll known
Minneapolis company. 1t was suggested
that the big fish had swallowed a whole
barrel of flour and had digested all the
flour and kept the head Of the barrel as
a souvenir.

DEAD STRAIGHT" TO TRUST
Another High Sounding Declaration
From Mayor AInes.

Mayor Ames comes up smiling with
ready reply to the criticisms leveled at
him for delaying much needed public i'm
provements by his policy of resisting the
issues of bonds. While admitting the
necessity of the proposed improvements
to the city's water system, he declares
that he can do no other than hold them
up so long as he believes the act author
izing the bond issue is unconstitutional
He reiterated his stand that there should
be 10 further increase Of the public debt
except by vote Of the people. AS mayor
and representing the whole city, it is his
duty, he says, to resist the rapacity of the
aldermen, who naturally look out alone
for their respective wards. It is the pres
ent great issues involving the welfare Of
the people of Minneapolis that bring him
in the field again as a candidate for
mayor, he declares. Personally he has
no desire to serve another term. In con-
clusion, the mayor delivers himself of a
bit of Characteristic sentiment as follows

The regents of the state university have

close of the school year he will step into

nation Of Professor r. j. E. Woodbridge.
Dr.. Wilde has been assistant professor
in the department for three years. He Is
a man of fine training and attachments,
and has been very successful in his work
at Minnesota. President Northrop is
known to be very greatly pleased that so
strong man is at hand to fill the place.
Messrs Woodbridge and Wilde are the

CLAPP'S ABSENCE
Went South on Account of His
Daughters Illness.

A dispatch from Washington to T b e
ournal Wednesday reported that
Senator Clapp was criticized there fol-
absenting himself from the capital just
at time when important matters there
demanded his attention, the Indian appro-
priation bill and the Morris bill being
cited particularly as requiring his pres
ence and attention. Ex-Governor Nc
Gill writes to the editor of T he ] r
n al to say that the criticism is unjust
as Senator Clapp was obliged to go south
in order to take his daughter, who Is quite
i'll, to locality more favorable to hel
health. This, Of course. is sufficient
excuse, but the delegation at Washington
seem to have had no explanation Of the
senator's absence and no information thai
he contemplated going.

o'clock this afternoon. Harry Pence, who
is interested In the river steamboats, run
ming from the landing at Minnehaha and
who has been very active in trying to get
the street railway company to extend its
loop nearer the river, asked permission
for the railroad to run tracks over land
belonging to the park board. The matter
will be taken up again at the regular
meeting of the board next week.
The residents on Lowry hill are very
anxious for the board to build a side
walk around the triangular piece in front
Of the Virginia flats. No definite action
was taken, but it is believed that the
sidewalk will be built. A proposition tc
put in gasolene incandescent lamps
around Lake Harriet and on certain other
boulevards was also considered.
