STORY OF MINNESOTA.
Will Be Told From Diary of Late
Governor Ramsey.
From Tuesday's Daily

from TUESDAY Ddliy
A volume of history important in its
relation to the story of Minnesota is
to be brought forth through the amph-
fieation and publication of a series of
personal diaries, kept for sixty years by
the late Alexander Ramsey, the first ter
ritorial governor, war governor and Unit
ed States senator from Minnesota.
Various attempts made prior to his
death to induce him to elaborate his dia-
ries into volumes of personal autobiog-
raphy failed because he believed such
work not in keeping with proper modes
ty. The diaries are now in the hands of
a daughter, Mrs. Marion R, Furness of
st. Paul, who will prepare them for pub
licati with the aid of officers and coun-
cilors of the Minnesota Historical So
ciety.
Gov. Ramsey was exact and methodical
in jotting down matters of interest that
came to his attention, and his diaries
cover sixty years of public life in Penn
sylvania and Minnesota. They make
note of names, events and reference in
formation and form contemporary rec
ords unexcelled by any that exist in
showing the less known history of the
state from territorial beginnings until a
comparatively recent date. The biogra-
phical matter they contain is highly priz-

dizzy combination seems to please every

The crafty farmer who is expecting a
visitation of city friends, now hides the

BUBBLES" MAKE A WlNNINGl
Board Of Equalization Bend to the
Putting Of Machines.

The state board of equalization after
a three days rest, took full breath YES
terday morning and courageouslv tackI-
ed the automobile problem again. But
the automobile conquered just the same.
When the board took up automobiles
last week the members started off brave
ly by boosting Anoka county 700 per
cent.
Yesterday, however, they listened with
chastened humility to the pleas of the
automobilists, and let the assessments 90
unchanged for the most part. although
a dozen counties were given~immaterial
raises.
All efforts to agree upon an average
value were futile. 1t was discovered that
in most cases motorcycles were punched
in with automobiles. In st. Louis coun-
ty the average value ranged from 81 to
$40.
In Beltrami county it was discovered
that there were no automobiles. but that
horse carts had been returned as such.
In Polk county a threshing machine
had been returned as an automobile.
In Hennepin county only two automo-
biles appeared, but the assessor said that
really $50 autos had been assessed, but
appeared under another heading, posi-
bly, pianofortes.
Ramsey county returned but twenty
eight autos, but they averaged 1877 each,
which was high, in comparison with 9TH
er counties.
Mr. McKibbin said that on May there
were but thirty-fve registered automo-
biles in St. Paul, but President Sprague
said he had made an investigation and
found that on May there were $50
autos in Ramsey county.
st. Louis county owned up to l2l auto
mobiles, and thus earned the premium for
honesty.
The Duluth automobiles, eight in num-
Der, were returned at Sll3 each, and the
board increased them 100 per cent.
The board met with many difficulties
today. one of which was the discovery
that in some northern counties chande-
Tiers had been listed as musical instru-
ments.
The board took up street cars next.
Hennepin and Ramsey did not report the
number of street cars, and these two
counties, with Washington and St.
Louis, will be taken UP at special hear
ing as usual.
Outside of the twin cities it appears
that there are lis street cars.
Kanabec county has one street car,
valued at 2; Pine county has one valued
at S.; st. Louis has % valued at $685.
each; Stearns has 6, valued at 5000 each,
and Washington has s, valued at $3.50
each.
At last Dan Patch seems to have a
clean record. Great excitement prevail
ed when it was found that Dan Patch
had not been assessed in Minneapolis.
Mr.. Greiner, of Chaska, reported this
morning that NJ. w. Savage, owner of
Dan Patch made return to the asses
sor of Glendale, Scott county. in which
he listed forty eight horses at $4,000,
and no doubt Dan Patch was among
them. Mr.. Savage's farm is in Scott
county-St. Paul Dispatch.
The board added ten per cent to the
valuation to household furniture in each
county. The increase in Blue Earth
county amounts to $4,000.

METHODIST CONFERENCE.
Annual Meeting Will Be Held in Red.
wood Falls Sept 20.
From Tuesdays Daily.

fioH IucSudy DdNy.
The annual Minnesota Methodist con-
ference will be held in Redwood Falls
during the week commencing Sept. %.
The most important business will
be the election of delegates to the gen
eral conference to be held in Los Angeles,
Cal, next year. There are eight delegates
to be elected, four of these will be clergy
men and the other four laymen. Former
ly only two lay delegates were elected
for the general conference.
Before the annual conference is held
the laymen hold meeting and elect one
delegate from each church to attend
the conference. These delegates then
meet during the week and transact any
business which comes under their juris-
diction. On Friday, Oct. 2, they will
hold their first meeting and will at once
elect the delegates. When that work is
finished they will draft any resolutions
regarding the missionary and church
work they may think proper to bring be-
fore the general conference.
Bishop Fowler will no doubt be chair
man of this annual conference. He was
formerly president of Northwestern uni
versity Only one clergyman outside the
district is allowed a seat at the meeting,
DR.. H. c. Jennings of Chicago, who is a
general officer of the church.
At the same time the conference is be-
ing held at Redwood Falls, the northern
Minnesota conference will be in session in
Duluth This conference is composed
of all the representatives of the church
in the district north of Minneapolis. The
Minnesota conference is composed of all
the representatives of the churches south
of Minneapolis. The same work will be
done by the northern Minnesota confer
ence as by the Minnesota conference.

SECOND INJURY.
]. E. Peterson Claims 10 Have Again
Fallen in Same Place.
From Tuesdays Daily.


J. Z. Peterson claims to have suffered
injuries again last night by falling at
the crossing of Sixth and Hickory streets.
He was found at the crossing, sitting on
the ground, and claimed to be hurt, and
was removed to the city hall, where the
county physician was called to examine
him. No external injuries could be found,
although Peterson claimed that his back
was hurt. When policeman remarked
that an injury to his back would not af-
feet his knees, he Strengthened them up
without difficulty.
Peterson is the man who claimed to
have been injured at the same place
something over month ago. He in
tended, it is said, to put in claim
to the city for injuries sustained, but the
thirty days within which notice of such
a claim must be filed with the council ex-
pired Saturday, without his knowledge,
so it is said. His second accident, fol-
lowing so closely after the expiration
of this time limit, and occurring at the
very same place where he claims to have
been injured before, is certainly an in
teresting circumstance. The city au.
thorities claim that there is no defect in
the walk where Peterson claims to have
fallen.
