Use Red Light.

The train was stopped by means of
a red light. The engine and express
car were uncoupled from the rest of
the train and backed half a mile far
ther on, where it was dYnamited.
The train was in charge of Conduc-
tor Harvey, who hurried to the city
and gave the alarm. The officers lost
no time in organizing and making the
start. 1t was necessary for the entire
train to be brought back to the city
and a new train made up, which left
at II o'clock.

Further Negotiations Between
Enginemen and Officials of
Great Northern.
RESULT OF YESTERDAYS MEETING
Proceedings Not Made PubIic-Do-
ings of Labor Unions
Elsewhere.

st. Paul, Sept. 23.-As result of
the conference of the officials of the
Great Northern with the officers of
the engineers and firemen's organiza-
tions yesterday afternoon, the immi-
nent danger of strike is believed to
have passed.
The meeting did not develop any
marked change in the situation. None
of those taking part in the negotia-
tiOns would make any formal state
ment as to the status of affairs further
tnan to say that there would be a re-
sumption of negotiations. 1t is under
stood, however, from authoritative
sources that the prospects for a peace
full settlement are much brighter than
they were considered before this con-
ference. No detailed statement of what
the men ask could be obtained, either
from the company officials or from the
men themselves. Their demands COM
prise, however, both a new wage sched-
ute and several important changes in
tho working rules.

A secret, a secret but bend low your

For summer is lst'ning to hear what

Oh, have you not noticed that she's
growing old?
Hush, whisper it softly, and don't say

But really I see that she fades very
fast,
Her youth and her beauty are things;
of the past.
the wear;
Her garlands of roses are dead in her
hair;
Her face is all freckled and sun
burned, too,
And nothing will ever her beauty re-
Her lover, the Sun, with his kisses so
bold,
Looks down on her still, but his
glances grow cold;
The soft, scented breezes that famed
her fair brow,
Blow round her so roughly they fright
en- her now.
The showers that fell in a soft cooling
rain,
Would leave her far fresher and
brighter again;
But now, every rain drop that falls
leaves trace,
The beautiful smile has forsaken her
face.
Oh, she's been the belle of the season
so fair;
She's loath with mild autumn the lau-
rels to share
Now, how can We tell her in kindness
to go?
What can she be thinking of linger-
ing so?
Oh, listen, she's saying farewell to us
now;
She's woven a garland for autumn's
fair brow;
She's breathed her farewell in a long
fearful sigh
Good bye, lovely summer, good bye,
and good bye!

REVISED GAME CODE.
Important Changes Made In the
State Game Laws By State
Legislature.

Adequate protection for the
game fish, birds and animals Of
the state is very near assured in
the passage of the Morgan bill.
The old game laws were in bad
shape. Some had been proved
defective, and others unconstitu
tional by the courts, and most
were very difficult to understand.
TIE new code is couched in simple
language and every precaution
is taken to makesit valid in every
particular.
An important change is the
one which applies all the money
received from licenses to sus-
tanning the work of the depart
ment. This will add $4,000 or
$4,000 a year to the amount
available. AS the standing APP
preparation is continued at $40,
900 a year, they can employ more
salaried wardens.
The gun license feature of the
bill was cut out, but the coupon
system of licenses was retained.
The big game license for resi-
dents of the state was raised to
ISL. With it goes five coupons,
three for deer, one for moose and
one for caribou. The holder of
the license. can ship the ANIMALS
with coupons attached to his own
county. but nowhere else. Non
residents still pay $25 for a big
game license, which entities them
to ship two deer, twenty-five
birds and fifty pounds of fish out
Of the state. They can -getsa
small gam license for $40 which
will entitle holder to ship the
birds and fish.
Another important change linn
it's the number Of birds a hunter
may have in his possession atone
time. He is limited to 100 ducks
and fifty birds of other kinds.
The open season for quail is.
made fifteen days later, running
from October Is to December Is.
The open season for bass begins
May 20, to permit fishing on May
80. Spearing of pickerel, suck
er, red horse and bullheads for
family use and without lights, is
permitted from March Is to
