The Minnesota State Fair.

The Minnesota state fair at Ham
line last week was one of the best
ever held in that state, and proba-
bly, no state in the Union puts up a
better fair than Minnesota. There
are several reasons that contribute
to the superior excellence of this
fair. The situation is favorable.
The position of the state; located
half way between the oceans where
the great ns-continental lines of
railways merge and have their CEN
trail offices. These roads bring
from all the country tributary to
their lines the, choicest products of
the soil. The location of the fair
adjacent to the two greatest of in
land cities of the west IS a material
aid and the merchants OF these cit
les give substantial encouragement
to the success of the annual exhibit
ton. The northwest has the lar
gest area of fertile lands in the
country-lands producing great di-
versity of crops in great abundance
and in the highest perfection. The
soil, climate and water of the north
west are most favorable to the de-
velopment of the livestock indus
try, and the enterprise of stockmen
in constant endeavor to improve
the grade of horses, cattle, sheep
and hogs gives opportunity for the
exhibition of the best stock in the

KAISER IS BLAMED
FOR HIS OFFER
OF $4,000
MANY THERE ARE WHO SAY THE
EMPEROR HAS TRANSCEND
ED HIS OFFICIAL AU-
THoRITY.

BERLIN, Aug. 16.-Emperor Williams
telegraphfc offer to the regent of Bavaria,
Prince Luitpoid. to donate $4,000 from his
private purse for buying works Of art, has
caused a political connection Of extraord-
mary PROPORTIONS. 1T is treated as con-
stitutional question involving the right Of
the emperor to intervene in local questions
OF the confederate states.
The expression especially objected to Is
HIS majesty's "displeasure at the mean
ingratitude displayed" by the Bavarian
diet in refusing to appropriate $4,000 Tor
art. The ecclesiastical feeling aroused
addresses itself TO the intensity Of the dis
cussion. for II was the centrists who de-
feated the appropriation out of pique at
the ministry for not supporting DR.. r. Won
Tandmann, the minister Of education, in
appointing Prof. Chroust to a chair in
Wuersberg university.
The faculty objected to the professor,
alleging that he was a czech. This was
purely a Bavarian question. but II instant
" became an imperial question through
the kaiser's telegram. every newspaper
IN the empire taking sides. Those In OPP
position aver that his majesty's act was
only one Of a series Of steps tending to in
crease the prerogatives of the emperor
beyond the limits fixed by the constitu-
ton.
Certainly. more than half the country
shares the emperor's sentiments. but some
OF his majesty's defenders think his public
expression was iniudicious. Others affirm
that a great deal is being made out OF
nothing: that Emperor Williams tele-
gram was merely a personal expression Of
what he regarded as being a slight to a
brother monarch. and say that his OFFER
was simply an expression of his love for
art.
Emperor William, a subscriber for a
hundred tickets IN a lottery OF the
Friends OF Art society, at 1915. each, has
been a continuous winner of prizes and an
explanation is printed in the newspaper
because OF the frequency OF his majesty's
name appearing as a winner on the lot
terry list OF the society. It Is pointed out
that the emperor buys one-tenth of all
the tickets and that the proceeds are de-
voted to purchase OF art works for public
galleries.

NEW ENGLAND LOSES
AND SOUTH WILL GAIN

NEW YORK, Aug. 16.-The depopulation
OF New Hartford as the result of an order
issued by the cotton duck combination to
shut down its Greenwood mills there on
September 1 for an indefinite period, has
begun in earnest. no less than 700 people
having left the town inside of two weeks.
says a Winsted, Conn, special to The

is estimated that fully one-half OF the
population Of the place, which is $500, win

.ENGLAND'S PRESS BOASTS
KING EDWARDS NAVY

LONDON, Aug. 16.-The naval review
which takes place today off Spithead, has
been seized upon by many London papers,
which are constantly advocating strength
ening the navy, as an occasion for very
severe structures.
The Morning Post takes the lead in
this pointing out that, with all its grand
display, the fleet is inadequate for what
would be required of 1t in case of war
with any first class power.
But the Daily Express is severest of
all. Under the heading 1.-THE Dummies
That Bolster Up Britain's Navy" 1t re-
Gently said:
1.-THE chief lesson Of the naval review
is not self satisfactory, but a national
resolve to strengthen the navy by plac-
ing brains and knowledge in their right
place in that administration by ruth
lessly cutting down expenditure on OBJ
solete vessels that can neither fight nor
run away"
These words are amply borne out by a
government paper issued yesterday. This
return gives comparative tables of the
fleet of the Great Britain and foreign
countries, and the retention in the list
of effective fighting vessels of battle
ships and cruisers with Misunderstanding
prising feature.
Neither France, Russia nor Germany
classes vessels 20 armed along with eff
fectives. 1t is pointed out that the list
of the United States which includes five
vessels armed solely with smOothbore
guns is the only parallel case.

Colonel William A. Hemphill died sud
denly at his residence at IL O'Clock last
night from angina pectoris.
Death was absolutely unexpected. While
Colonel Hemphill had been in declining
health for some three months past, his
condition had not been such as to cause
alarm. He had been uptown every day
and had never given any of his friends
an intimation that he was other than his
usual robust self.
On Saturday Colonel HeTnphill spent
some hours in the office of his brother,
Robert A Hemphill, and it was then for
the first time that he spoke of feeling
badly He complained of a severe pain
ana said that he thought it would be best
for him to see a doctor. This he did and
in a few hours was apparently all right.
On yesterday he drove to Trinity church.
but was not feeling sufficiently strong to
attend the Sunday school services and
sent word to the children that he would
be with them on the following Sabbath.
Returning home he took dinner With
MS Family and was III a cheerful mood AT
mgnI he ate a light repast and sat up
for some hours afterwards. reading and
talking to his wife and children.
At II o'clock, while standing in the
room, he was seized with the fatal stroke.
When assistance came the hand of death
had already touched his brow.

SAN JOSE. Costa Rica. via Galveston.
Texas, Aug. 16-Authentic news from
Panama via Port Lmon indicates Sc
rious state of affairs on the isthmus.
About two thousand soldiers of the Co
lombian government, who have been in
Aqua Dulce, were attacked on July 20
by 1000 revolutionists, commanded by Gen.
Herrera, and up to August the govern
ment Of Panama had not received salts
factory news.
The insurgent forces on August LIST took
possession of the harbor Of Aqua Dulce.
When the government vessel Chucuito
tired to land ammunition and provisions
for the government trops, she was attack
ed and obliged to come back to Panama,
where she is now lying, with a big hole
In 4aer side. She will be unable to move
for several days.
The Chucuito upon her arrival at Aqua
Dulce had been surprised by the insurgent
gunboat Padilla, which fired on her. The
Chucuito, having been hit. hurried away,
leaving the Boyaca to fight 1t out with
the gunboat Padilla.
When the Chucuito last saw the Boyaca,
the latter was being pursued by the Pa
dilla AS nothing has been heard from
the Boyaca she was undoubtedly captured
or sunk by the revolutionary war vessel.
The engagement between the Boyaca and
the PaOilla took place on July 80. The
Boyaca had 300 soldiers on board and a
large quantity of arms and provisions.
