COLD WEATHER A HELP
TO ALL KINDS OF TRADE
Business to End
Merchants Expect Increased
of Season.

to Yesterday had been bad so far as
his business is concerned, ne sald, ana
IL isn't often that business lost in TINS
way is made up later. but the brisk
ress with which trade lasted all DAY
yesterday was at least hopeful sign
and one that promised much for the
rest of the season.
This case fairly reflects the condi-
tions that have prevailed in all lines
I'D to yesterday. and the change
brought by the falling mercury was as
general. Saturday, as rule, brings
out only a certain class of trade, and
that is not the cream of 1t, so all deal
ers are looking forward with satisfac-
ton to the new week when they antic-
ipate a general business that will go
long way toward offsetting the dullness
of the earlier autumn business.
Nor are the dry goods men, the
clothiers. shoe men and dealers in
similar lines the only ones affected.
green grocers and all persons who
cater to the table will likewise re-
ceive the benefits of a revival of bust
ness. The consumption Of all meats
is greatly increased in cold weather
while the demand for vegetables isl
not in the least lessened. There isl
always an increased demand for oys-,
tiers, too, for though many personsl
are satisfied to use this article so soon,
as the months with the "R" are in,
yet many wait for actual cold weather.
before adding the bivalve to their
menu.
i Many dealers, particularly those
handling perishable stuff, are benefits
ed, too, in the saving of ice. a much'
smaller quantity being needed during
cold weather than during the Indian,
Summer days that have lasted so long
One of the largest classes to be helped
in this regard is the saloon men. They,
are benefited in another way, too, fort
in winter they sell more heating
drinks, more costly and consequently
the more profitable. All trades con-
sidered Il would seem that the only
men who could object to the change
are the ice men, and as they haveI
had an unusually long run of weather,
favorable to their business, It is hard
ly likely that they can feel that theyl
have any grievance against the mer-
curry.

that no pluckier scrapper than Ryan
ever wore boxing gloves. Ryan's bat
ties, especially in the last six years,
are convincing enough as to his game
ness. His battle with Tommy West
at Louisville a few years ago, when it
was slash, slash all the way through,
more than proved this fact.
Young Corbett has been referred to
as a coward. He is far from that, how
ever. In the early stages of his career
he was a boy who was of that 'I-don't-
care-wha t-becomes-of-me" kind, and
unless he was winning a fight right
off the reel he did not care whether
he won or lost Since he became prom
inent, however, he has outgrown this
failing and he wants to win every fight
he engages in. He showed in his fight
with Terry McGovern the last time
they met after he received an awful
blow on the stomach in the eighth
round that he was game to the core.
II he was timid all he could have done
was to have laid down." None of the
sports would have been any the wiser
had he let himself be counted out.
1t has often been said of Jim Cor
bett that the slightest punch would
make him think of quitting in a bat
tie. no matter how much he may have
had at stake. When he fought Bob
Fitzsimmons at Carson City in 1897 his
defeat came after a blow in the wind,
or solar plexus, as some learned sport
ing writer termed that part of his
anatomy. Pictures of that mill were
taken and were reproduced in this city.
Corbett was knocked out-he could not
get his wind. And in all of his after
fights Corbett has displayed wonderful
gameness. To stand ten slashing
rounds against a man of Jim Jeffries'
build and fighting powers is no mean
achievement. Jim Corbett did this
and took a beating that he will not
forget in years.
Many thought that George Dixon
would quit after he met rival who
could get to him and punish him hard
Dixon found such an opponent in Ter
ry McGovern. For eight rounds Nc
Govern pounded the wonderful negro
and the latter gave in only when his
seconds threw up the sponge. Joe
Cans was accused of quitting when he
fought Frank Erne the first time at
the Broadway Athletic Club. He did
stop. But he said he could not see
and that he knew he would be a. the
mercy of his man if he continued. When
he met Erne again he knocked the
Buffalo boy out.

Captive Flying Machines.
From the American Inventor.


Chicago is to have flying machines
circling in Sans Souci Park while at
tached to a revolving skeleton tower.
They are expected to give the desired
thrills without the attendant dangers
of aerial navigation. These flying ma
chimes travel in tours. They ascend
the side of a steel tower $50 feet in
hight, and while going to the topmost
point they soar in circles. The cars
are made after the style Of typical fly
ing machines, with mirrors to the back
which reflect distance, so that no mat
ter which way the passenger looks he
sees nothing but a bird's-eye view of
the country.
The invention, which is termed the
revolving airship tower, will cost $780,
900, said to be the largest sum ever ex-
pended in an amusement device. The
tower is sixty-five feet square at the
base, and tapers to twenty-five feet
square at the top. The flying ma
chimes are pulled up the four sides Of
the tower by means of cables, the en-
tire tower revolving all the time.
About $50 horsepower is required to
operate this amusement mountain. AS
the cars move up and down the sides
of the rev diving tower wheels on the
cigar shaped cars will revolve, adding
greatly to the effect of the odd ride.

Catcher's Victims.

The dog catcher got more than he
bargained for yesterday when he at
tempted to gather in a dog belonging
to a woman on fRice2street. He grab
bed the animal like any ordinary ca
nine and threw him into the cage with
the other unfortunates whose owners
have neglected to take out a license.
The woman who owns this particular
dog, however, Isclaimed to have a Ii
cense for it and when the catcher re-
fused to look at the paper and was
driving off, the children of Rice school.
which was near, happened along, and
hearing of the capture of the dog,
promptly effected a rescue by knock
ing the lock off the cage and taking
the dog out, together with the other
prisoners.
The number of the assailants rem
dered the catcher helpless, and after
the dogs had all gone he complained
to the principal of the school against
the cuIprits Every boy in the vicinity
was called up in the investigation. but.
not one knew who broke the lock or
had anything to do with the attack ON
the wagon.1i The investigation was
finally given up as waste of time and
the dog catcher compelled to drive
away with an empty wagon. There
was not a dog in sight on Rice street
for the rest of the day.

lie said there was lack of, willing-
ness and responsibility on the part of
the laity either to respond to the calls
of the clergy or to volunteer their serV-
ices. An utter lack of good method in
the past had caused a break between
the church and the young people, he
said, and this had been the cause of
the rise of the Y. p. S. c. E., the EIp-

DECLARES HIMSELF
Governor Says He Doesn't
Want to Be Senator.

Gov. Van SAINT, in an emphatic state
ment given out yesterday makes it
plain that he is not ambitious to sue
coed Hon. Moses E. Clapp as United
States senator.
The action of the governor in MAX
ing a public statement of his position
at this time is provoked by publica
ton in a Republican paper of Mime
apolis of assertions that have appeared
in country papers of the state from
time to time.
The governor says:
ut is only because I am interested in
party harmony and party success that
I deem it advisable to say anything in
regard to the statement. The matter
is u repetition of what has appeared
in other papers in different portions OF
the state.
Il deem it due to the Republicans of
Minnesota to most emphatically deny
that 1 am candidate for Senator
Clapp's seat in the United States SEN
ate. On the contrary, 1 am his earnest
supporter. l believe in the selection
of United States senators by a popular
vote of the people. Under our consti-
tuition this is out of the question, so
the next best thing is to have indorse-
ments made by our state convention.
Senator Clapp was so Endorsed. [ pro-
pose TO stand by the action OF that
convention. Senator Clapp not only has
the party Endorsement, but he is an
able and efficient senator and richly
deserves reelection. He will, in my
judgment be renominated and re-elect-
ed by unanimous party vote. We
have two f,rst-class senators. and we
would do well to retain them as long
as they desire to serve. 1 predict that
the man who should attempt to defeat
either of them would be the most lone
~ man in Minnesota"
