WOES OF THE POET.
An Illustrative Instance of What His
Soaring Spirit Has to Con- >:
tend With.

The poet has to stand more tramp
ling on Ms toes, more knocks and
bangs, than the majority of men,.
Possibly he is so sensitive that he.
feels them more; anyhow, he suffers
and endures, and is always expecting
a solar plexus blow. He had wom--z.
an friend whom he admired and es-.
teemed a lot. She was intensely par-y
ticular, however, but she liked him.
and always had something kindly to-
say. The other evening she began
talking about his book, says the,
Louisville Times. IA
II borrowed it from a FRIEND" she
declared, land started to read it. I:
would pick it>up before breakfast or
after supper, but do you know that
every time I was trying my best to-
wade through it some of the children
in the house would call me for some
thing, and I never did pillow through
the volume ,$si
The poet had grinned broadly when
she began on the subject of his books;
but the words 'wade through it,
"plow through it," felled his spirit to-
the dust. That girl was worse than
the woman who wrote a poet a note
of thanks for gift of his book and
let him find it on her parlor table
with the leaves uncut. $50

MINNESOTA NEWS.
Butter Industry.

There are at present in Minnesota
about 100000 cows, producing annu'
ally 5o,OOO,O00 pounds of butter, repre-
senting value of about $11,000,ooo.
Eighteen thousand families in Mime
sofa are supported by this industry.
It yields more than the total barley
and corn crops, double what the pota-
to crop yields, and it gives employ
ment to more men than any industry
of the state.
The factory product alone OF butter
and cheese for the year 1900 was 49,
100000, which placed the industry
next only to the -four mills and the
lumber mills in point of value OF an
nual production. From 1890 to 1900
the increase in the value of the dairy
product of Minnesota was over 300 per
cent, and from 1895 to 1900 the in
crease in the product was 125 per cent.
At the present rate of increase the
next state census will show an in
crease never equaled by any industry
of Minnesota. There is capital OF
S4,0OO,O 900 invested in the creameries
of Minnesota, and these creameries
distribute $s,O00,000 year to their
patrons.

COST OF LIBRARY VISITS.
Estimated Expense of Providing fer:
Callers at the Large Reading y
Rooms of Chicago. =

Each time anybody goes to the John
Crerar library, and gets book out
the institution spends 6s cents on his
comfort, says the Chicago Tribune. IA
Again, how many of those who pur-E.
sue learning at the Newberry library
appreciate the fact that for every time
they are present in the reading-room
of the institution ~ cents must be ex-&
pended to cover the cost of their visit?
1t is safe to say that few if any OF
the thousands of men and women who
enjoy the privileges of either of these
institutions year after year stop to !:
consider the financial consideration in
volved in their reading and study. And
it is equally as certain that those who 4
have made it possible for them to en-
joy these educational privileges give
as little thought to the cost as do the:
beneficiaries. But there is an old-time
adage that Figures won't lie" and thus .
it is that by little calculating on pro
rata expense of maintaining the two
libraries a rather interesting feature
of the public library question is pre-
scented.
The fact Of the matter is that each
visit to the John Crerar library costa
more than IS cents, but the excess can
not in justice be charged to the vis-
itors of any one year or period, be- I
cause expenditures are incurred In
adding to the facilities of the institu-
ton, thus increasing its assets and its /
value to posterity. The average cost
per year of maintaining the institution.
is about $4,000, which is exclusive of
money expended in securing new
books, labelling and cataloging them.
and getting them ready for shelving
These items are chargeable to the
| assets. Il
In 1901 people paid 5s,42s visits to the
library and calculating on the basis
of $4,000 a year for maintenance tho
pro rata cost is shown to be approx
| imately 6S cents. However, such items
| as binding, periodicals, books, letter.
ing and repairs are not taken into con-
sideration in this problem. If they
were, n total expense of more than
$4,000 would be shown and the pro"
| rata cost would be CORRESPONDENCE in
creased. tI$
Students, however, are not disposed
to consider the matter on this basis,
for they say the number of persons
who receive the benefit of their scien-s
tific study must not be overlooked. Z.
| The number of visitors at the New
berry library during 1901, including the
museum, was 7s,4s3, and the estimated
cost of maintenance was $37, 900, maxi
ing the per capita expense about Al.
cents. The difference between the
| number Of visitors at the two institu-:z
tions is explained by the greater num-
Der of subjects covered in the books
belonging to the Newberry. Y

SKETCH OF MARCONI.
The Social Side>;rof the. Youthful
Electrical inventor -
Wants to he Agreeable with Every
ono, Hut Scientific Bent lnter-
fcres-RecoSnixed by Princes
and SAvants.

One of the best friends of Marconi,
the youthful Italian inventor, recent
ly called him most unsocial indi-
vidual. The observation is interest
ing, but it is not quite true. Mar
conf is not social in the sense of be-
ing devotee of pink teas, recep-
tions and the like, but he is the sort
of man who makes a good compan-
ion to his inti1nates who know how
to keep within the range of his in
terests.
And his range of1interests is not
limited, by any means. There are
few subjects in the line of physical
science or invention which he has
not studied, and he is acquainted
with the work of many inventors in
other subjects. He plays the piano
fairly we'll, having studied under a
master for several years of his child
hood. He is an all-round athlete.
He speaks several languages. Now,
a man does not have to be all OF
these things in order to be a sue
cessful inventor of wireless teleg-
raphy. He is great man in more
ways than one.
The fact is, says the Washington
Star, Marconi really wants to be So
ciable toward everyone, but his sci
entific side does not allow him to
carry out his inclinations.
II should like to go away from all
the work and worry, and stay among
pleasant people for a month or So
he said one day, 'but I know that
I should no sooner be away from my
work than I would begin to think
that I ought to be back at it and
that l was wasting my time. That's
why I cannot take rest. I even
work as hard on an ocean voyage
as I do when Pm at one of my ex-
perimental stations. But l guess I
have as much fun out of my work

never probably on SO extensive q
scale.
This peculiar hauling or rather lift
ing, operation goes ON all day long
on the west side of Herald square,
between Thirty-fourth and Thirty
fifth streets. The excavation being
made of this entire block is said to
be the largest in the city. The floor
of this cellar is 80 feet below the
level of the street, making it very
difficult to haul heavy loads upon an
incline which could be built. The
plan adopted is really amazingly SIM
pie and effective. A roadway was
built a block in length, spanning the
great excavation at the street level.
Well out in the middle of the great
hole huge crane so feet high was
placed and rugged with powerful
steam lifting apparatus.
The empty double trucks are
driven on one end of the elevated
roadway, long line of them, and are
hauled near the middle, where the
horses are taken off. A stout chain
is quickly passen unoer the wagon
and at signal the entire truck,
wheels and all, is hoisted rapidly into
the air. At another signal it is
swung into space 40 feet above the
ground and lowered to any point in
the excavation.
There are dozen or more of
these empty carts being loaded down
in the hole at the same time. AS
soon as one has been filled with
great powders it is again attached
to the derrick, raised as easily as
though it were a toy, swung about
half block or so and dropped on
the elevated roadway, exactly behind
the particular team Of horses which
are waiting for it. During working
hours a cart is handled in this way
on an average every five minutes. a

ment, it is stated, will take up the in
vestigation of all syrups used in the
flavoring of soda water with view to
ascertaining their quality and in what
degree, if any, they are deleterious.
Last year the investigation was un-
dertaken, but on account of the great
amount of work which heaped upon
the department, was not finished.
Enough interesting data was obtain
ed, however, to arouse the curiosity
of the department officials and prompt
them to make another effort this year.
The department officers were led to
make the investigation by the suspi-
cion that many of the pure fruit juic-
es, so-called, were made OF glucose
and contained aniline dyes. The col
oring matter drawn from certain
grades of candy, from jams and soda
fountain syrup has been used by the
department to color strands OF yarn
the colors having brilliancy and
permanency very pleasing to behold.
At Evcleth.
At 4 o'clock in the morning the city
of Eveleth was aroused by a terrific
explosion, followed few minutes
later by the fire whistle. The Duluth
Missabe & Northern railway station
was totally destroyed by the explosion
of nitroglycerin placed in holes bored
into the safe.
The burglars evidently used ten
times as much dynamite as was necs-
sary, for the building was completely
destroyed and the safe torn to bits.
Just before the explosion, two men
were seen running away from the
building, but no trace of them has
been found so far. The debris caught
fire after the explosion, but was soon
put out by the department.. g,
AT 10 o'clock at night the city Jail
was partly destroyed by fire, and one
prisoner was burned to death, being
locked in the Jail, a frame building.
He was a Finnish miner, and was in
toxicated, and was only placed in the
Jail last night by the Fayal constable.

against John Donovan, the night
Waterman at the Ryan Annex, St.
Paul.
He failed to ring the call boxes yes
terday morning as he should have
done, and a messenger boy was sent
to the building to see if he was sleep
ing, or if the wires were at fault.
The boy pounded and pounded on
the doors, but there was no response,
and it was thought that the faithful
Waterman must have gone back on his
trust and left the building. That
would have meant several black marks
against him.
Poor Donovan! It was not his fault
that the calls did not 60 in. When
the doors were opened his lifeless
body was found dangling from the
elevator cage at the sixth floor. He
had become caught while at work, and
the life crushed out of him.

1.-THE Young Italian Inventor of the Wire
less Telegraph)
MS most people do out of their So
cial diversions"
Marconi likes American women,
and, judging from the scores of in
vitations which he has received since
his return to this country from lead
ing society women of New York and
other cities American women like
him.
He is essentially man of simple
habits. He is an aristocrat of the
common people, and, although lie has
always had more money than he
cared to spend, he has never changed
his style of living. He lives we'll, en-
joys good dinner, drinks little
wine and occasionally smokes a
cigarette. The most important thing
in the world to him is his work; the
greatest affection he has for any
person is for his mother. If he had
his own way he would live quiet
life in some country place where he
could work undisturbed by newspa-
per reporters or lion hunters. The
glare of publicity has been on him
so long that it is little wonder that
he wearies of the attention, no mat
ter how kindly meant it may all he.
TO strangers, Marconi is a curious
mixture Of reserve, modesty, diff
dence and Indifference, if such a mix
ture of terms may be taken at one
BREATH He cares little for the praise
of men, for the sake Of the honeyed
words themselves. He does care for
the good opinions of the men who re-
ally understand his work and for the
recognition of the leading men of
the world.
He was asked one day what his
outlook on life and his work was,
and he replied:
81 feel that I must do the work
that l am in, and that nothing shall
stop me- When the work wins the
commentator of those who under
stand it I am pleased. The one thing
I do like about the success which I
have attained is that it has brought
me into close touch with the great
est living men of the world. That
is worth something's
In that remark Marconi revealed
all of the social ambition he has.
He wants to know the leading men
of the world, and for man not
yet 20 years of age one must admit
he has made good beginning. He
is intimately acquainted with the
king and queen of Italy, with King
Edward VII. of England and with
many of the royal family. The king
of the Belgians is an acquaintance,
and scores of princes, dukes, counts,
lords and knights are proud to claim
this young man as their friend: Lord
Kelvin. one of England's most dis
tinguished scientists, takes the high
est interest in Marconi's work.

Might Entertainments.

Plans for the night entertainments
at the state fair next fall are being
worked up under the skilful direction
of Vice President Chester r. Smith.
The principal feature of these enter
tainments will be the fireworks which
have proved so popular in the last two
or three years.
A change will probably be made in
the fireworks so that set pieces and
figures will to some extent take the
place of the flights of rockets and
bombs which are undeniably beautiful
but which cannot be enjoyed by many
people who have seats under the
grand stand roofs.
