TO STEADY MARKET
Western Shingle Operators Ask Job

The Plan Is to Brace the Mar
ket by a Shut w.
down.

Said the west coast shingle mill to the
Minneapolis jobber: Quote us such low
prices nour product that we will have
to shut down.
This remarkable request has been COM
piled with and the mills have shut down.
Prices are off about 10 per cent. The job
bers feel gratif1ed to think that they have
come to be so important a factor in the
shlngle situation, for there has been over
production and their action was depended
upon to steady the market.
1t is without precedent to have reac-
ton in the face Of a coming market. The
general condition would be splendid were
the eastern retailer sure he could not buy
cheaper at a later date, and that the de-
mand would equal the production The
prospect is good, however, and it is
figured that the Minneapolis price will go
up or 10 cents with a short shutdown of
two weeks, and higher if it lasts longer
The Minneapolis market to-day is at
$3.50 for clears and $40 for extras. These
prices net jobbers $1.9O and $1.6O respec-
lively. There are occasional sales at 81. IS
and represent cars approaching eastern
terminals. aud which, in the present scar
city Of cars, must be moved at once.
The Minneapolis market is not over
stocked with cedar shingles. Nearly every
jobber has shipments on the way from
the mills or in local warehouses. But a
good deal of this stock is destined for
points farther east and is waiting only
for the lake season to open and the low
lake and rail freight rate.

Pittsburg Dispatch.
To deal with men in such a manner as
to best serve the ends of both business
and courtesy requires endless resources
Of tact and judgment.
Courtesy and consideration were not
lacking in the late President George B.
Roberts of the Pennsylvania railroad.
One evening while in the great depot at
Philadelphia he noticed that an approach
ing couple were attracting considerable
attention. Soon he saw that placard
pinned to the mans suit case contained
the words, 1--WE are on our honeymoon. u
Unhesitatingly Mr.. Roberts quickly re-
moved the offensive notice without call
ing the groom attention to the act.
Sir" said young man who had fol-
lowed in the rear II want that card
That man is a friend of mine,' and he as
sumed a threatening attitude.

be my friend I'd be afraid to hit him. ;
said Mr.. Roberts as. he crumpled the pa.

"Of course you would said the alleged
friend, gaining courage.
Yes. I'd fear that his head would prove
as hollow as his friendship" III .

A VICTORY FOR ST. PAUL
Central High School There Wins
From the Austin High School
IA in Debate.

The Central High Schol of st. Paul de-.
feated the Austin High School last night
at st. Paul in a debating contest for a
chance to compete In the finals of the
High Schol Debating League. The ques-
ton was that familiar resolution, THAT
United States senators should be elected
by direct vote of the people, -
The st. Paul team, which took the neg
alive, was composed of Milton Firestone,
Kenneth McManigal and Paul Gauger. The
Austin team was Miss Gertrude Kline,
Miles Birkit and Roy Adams. The judges
were R.. w. Stanford, j. w. Horton and
Conrad Christofferson, of the state uni
versity intercollegiate debating team.
This was the third victory of the st.
Paul high school. 1t had already defeated
Benson and Little Falls. : It was specially
pleased to win from Austin, which had
gained tire consecutive triumpfis- lover
Spring Valley, Owatonna and Blue Earth
and was considered the strongest team
In the state association.
The next debate will be between Min
neapolis and Fergus Falls. The victor
must then encounter st. Paul, which is
now in line for the championship.

HALL PLAN BLOCKED
Aldermen Refuse to Approve.the Re
moval Of the Garbage
Incinerators.
The Health Commissioner is, Dis
gusted With Treatment Ac-
corded His Proposition.

The city council last evening turned
down the plan to remove the crematory
from Fifty second avenue N to Hall s
island and rejected the recommended
that the contract for moving the fncinera-
tor be awarded to the William Bros. Boiler
& Manufacturing Co. The report Of the
committee on health and hopitals was lost,
IA to 10. While the projevt may be re-
vived in differentsfor it has certainly
been killed i'll its present shape.
BY defeating the attempt to transfer
the inc1nerators, the council appears to
have blocked the health commissioners
plans for crematory near the center of
the city. DR.. Hall had counted on the
support of at least fourteen members, but
the first ward alderman managed to swing
the majority. One alderman, who first
voted yes to the committees report,
changed his vote to no when he saw where
the balance lay.
Dr. Hall expresses himself as thoroughly
disguised at the turn of affairs after the
months Of hard work which he put In IN

The report of the committee on accounts
of public officers, recommending that the
sinking fund commissioners be directed
to return to the permanent Improvement
revolving fund the $1O0,000S held to be

means. This was to avoid an open con-
f1ict with the sinking fund commission,
which questions the authority of the coun-
Gil The commission believes that the
committee on accounts of city officials
exceeded its province in making such
recommendation and will not act until the
court has so directed. The ways and
means committee will discuss the situa-
ton with the commission.
An ordinance was passed providing for
the paving of Second street N from
Fourth avenue to Tenth avenue N, the

LEFT.EYED PEOPLE A NEW GENUS
York Times


The man who spends half his time try
ing to classify people, said he never saw
SO many left-eyed passengers in one car.
.'What do you mean by left-eyed pas
|sengers?'' asked his companion.
People who use their left eye more
than their right" was the reply. 1.-THE
species is not common. and of course none
but a student in ocular science would be
able to detect offhand the few whom
we do meet. A left-handed person adver-
tises his popularity at once; not SO the
left-eyed man. AS a rule it takes an
oculist to determine which eye has been
used most, but there are certain pecu-
1iarities of the pupil and lid that may be
taken as pretty sure signs by the trained
observer.
'Left-eyed people are made, not born.
Most of us have been blessed by nature
with eyes of equal visual power, but the
! attitude we strike when reading or writ
ing causes us to exercise one eye more
than the other, and the first thing we
know we are right or left eyed. There
| is a one-sidedness that should always be
| taken into consideration when buying
glasses. right-eyed man with left-eyed
spectacles, or vice versa. is at decided
disadvantage. and 1t is the opticians bust
ness to see that he is properly fitted"

OPENS NEW FACTORY
Cree Dickson Manufacturing Com.
pany Takes the Wheaton.
Reynolds Plant.
To Manufacture Sectional Book
Cases and Other Spccialties
Well Established.

A newly developed local industry, the
Cree-Dickson Manufacturing company,
engaged In the manufacture of the latest
novelty in the line Of sectional book cases,
has installed an up-to date factory in the
old Wheaton-Reynolds plant, First avenue
generally known that the idea Of a sec
tional book case was originally developed
! in a crude way by a Minneapolis lawyer
who wanted a convenient arrangement for
his library. That was before the days OF
patented dust proof doors and doors that
open downward, SO as to form Shelf
when open, and to close automatically
unless kept opeE by a weight.
The Cree-Dickson company has grown
from a partnership into 5000, 900 corpo-
ration, and, the business ahead Of it indi-
Gates that it will not be long until a greater
capitalization will be justified. The newly
equipped factory is only one OF its several
substantial evidences of business success.
The Cree-Dickinson company is closely
allied with the Cree Publishing company,
DugaI, Cree being president of both con-
Germs. The publishing company has an
extensive book business, selling exclusive
sets Of fine art publications and specialties
in the book line.
I This dovetails admirably into the Sec
tional bookcase business and, in fact. 1t
is the basis Of the connection of Mr.. Cree
with the latter. The demand for book
case that would be better than all others
set him to thinking and the new Mime
apolis product is the result Broad pat
ents have been secured and SO satisfactory
and successful have the cases proven that
the manufacturer has been behind for
months, so that the enlarged capacity
now provided was absolutely essential
In addition to sectional bookcases 1t IS
intended to put out sectional filing cabi-
nets and office equipment. making every
thing in this line With the substantial
business connections already established
the output Of the factory will be taken
care Of with ease.
The new Cree-Dickinson Manufacturing
company will be under the general super
vision of MT. Cree, while the practical
work Of manufacturing will be in charge
Of Hermann Dickinson, who has taken
Mr.. Cree's ideas and worked them out to
a stage Of mechanical perfection.

WILL IGNORE COURT
City Treasurer Says That 100000
Must Remain in the Sink
|. ing Fund.
Courts Order Cannot Overrule Pro.
vision of Charter Asst. City
Attorney Morse Dissents.

City Treasurer G. S. Hubert declared
this morning that even an order of the
court would not persuade the sinking fund
commission to transfer 100000 from the
sinking fund to the permanent improve
ment revolving fund.
That amount said he, was legally
transferred from the revolving fund to the
sinking fund as permanent asset of the
iatter fund and not as a temporary loan.
The city charter expressly provides that
all surpluses from the revolving fund so
transferred for investment shall remain in
the sinking fund, and that's where that
100000 Is going to remain. An order from
the court could hardly overrule charter
provision. Nothing short of special act
OF the legislature will put that money
back In the revolving fund.-
Assistant iCty Attorney Morse, who has
looked up the legal points Of the question,
says the city treasurer would better
study up, and that there is not the
slightest doubt but that the 100000 be-
longs to the sinking fund, and that the
charter provides for its return

SMITH COMES BACK
The Assistant County Attorney Re
plies to Criticisms by
Judge Pond.
He Explains His Action and Denies
Having Been Insolent or
Discourteous.

@ L. smith, assistant county attorney,
has made statement in reply to Judge
Pond structures. on his action in a re-
cent tax title case Judge Ponds criti-
cism appeared in Yesterdays ] u n a l.
To-day Mr.. Smith says:
If Judge Pond S conduct in the trial was
similar to his decision, did it not merit
resentment?
lie admits most of the facts. and an
other that / did not know at the time
and that never alluded to, namely, that
the beneficiary, Mr.. Drew, is a relative
Of his and former partner in business.
If this fact. as he states, disqualifes
MIN from acting, will he. set aside his
former order, wherein he ordered judg
ment for the same beneficiary in the
amount of $11,742?. ..-. y.
AS to the facts in the present case. j
will say: AS counsel was closing the ar
gument, I asked the court to- permit me
to appear in the case and represent the
county. The court granted the request
but insisted that proceed with the argu-
ment at once.
This was an impossibility. He then
gave me just two and a half days in which
to get transcript Of the evidence and
prepare a brief which involves severa
thousand dollars.
Why He Did 1t.
"In the argument, counsel sfor plain
tiff contended that the tax was illegal fol
the reason that the county commissioners
had not properly designated a newspaper
in Which TO- print the delinquent tax list
and as Judge Pond had SO held in the
former Hicks case, where he ordered tine
|refundment of $11,742, and as the evil
dence was the same in this as in the Hicks
case, I deemed it necessary to introduce
further evidence with the hope of getting
Judge Pond to reverse his decision in the
Hicks case. This is what he terms irrele-
want evidence. ~ - .E
There We're other equally important
things to introduce, but they were denied
me. - r
1T was under this trying state of af-
fairs that withdrew from the case, as
deemed it futile to put in a brief unless
could put in the evidence to sustain it.
InsoIence Is Denied. <
what I said was not said in an inso-
lent manner. If what said was irritating,
am not to blame, as it was plain facts.
81 .sWhat Judge Pond denied me is en-
Bodied in a bill now on its progress
through the legislature, which has not as
yet met with a dissenting vote. What he
denied me has not been denied by any
other judge of the district court. For a
similar action in the supreme court l got
a personal letter from one of the jurists
thanking me for what had done. n
Judge Pond speaks of my rushing into
the papers,. If he refers to the publication
in Z h e J u I'm a ], I will assurne' the
for it was submitted to me
before it was published. If he refers to
the Times or the Tribune articles, then
he must consult those papers, as did not
see the articles before printed

THE SHAFTS PRECIOUS GLOBE

Translate ton Made for the Literary Digest.
It appears that persons have not been
altogether mistaken in supposing that the
Shah Of Persia possesses some treasures
that cannot be matched on earth. A brief
statement as to the extent of his riches
is found in the Courier DIES Etas Unis:
The English jeweler who offered the
shah the modest sum- of 100000 for the
jewels which he wears on ceremonial oc-
casions, probably knew what he was about,
and would at least have stood a good
chance to get his money back If the offer
had been accepted. But what would he
or any one else do with the famous ter
restrial globe which his majesty possesses
at Teheran? .-
This globe is made Of solid gold and
weighs about seventy pounds. The boun-
daries of countries, and other marks, are
made of precious stones, the total number
of which is said to be more than $4,000.
The oceans are represented by thousands
Of emeralds, Persia is blue with many tur
quoses, Africa is ablaze with rubies,
France and England sparkle with hun
dreds of diamonds. How delightful 1t
would be to study geography from a globe
like that! -. -...." u. .....s 3

AMERICAN MACHINERY IN SYRIA.
Pittsbure Dispatch

= Reaping machines were employed this
year for the first time by native farmers OF
Syria. These pioneers all came from Chi
cago. Eleven were working during the
late harvest in Coele-Syria and twenty
six in the plain Of Esdraeon. Also for
the first time in the history of this coun-
try, the present year has witnessed the
introduction and operation in Syria of a
steam threshing outfit. 1t came from
Richmond, Ind, and caused considerable
stir in Coele Syria, where it was in
stalled: It's success was complete, even
to the bruising of the straw-a most i'm
portant item, since in the absence of hay
and with the sparing use of oats, barley
and other grains, crushed straw in these
parts constitutes the staple food for
stock. Furthermore, for the first time in
the annals of Syria. an oil-moter flour
mill has been successfully started in this
land; it came from Indianapolis, and is
now grinding wheat in Lebanon.

Y. M. c. A. popular entertainment course
will present a. strong combination, includ-
ing Opie Read, Charles Eugene Banks and
Wallace Bruce Amsbary, and is certainly
a worthy successor to those Of an earlier
time. *
Mr.. Read has g. reputation as novelist
that Is as extensive as the English Ian
guage. .nOthe platform Mr.. Read pre-
sents a striking appearance. and is inter-
esting to the audience from the instant
he appears.
The writings Of Mr.. Banks are clean,
wholesome land refined. = His pathetic
poems touch the heart, and his quaint
hun1or teaches valuable lessons. He is
an admirable addition to the eccentric
comedy of Opie Read and the dramatic
interpretations Of Amsbary. Mr.. Banks
work, has a distinctly western flavor.
Wallace Bruce Amsbary is one of the
most delightful Of present day entertain
ers, and has made something of a sensa-
ton in the literary world by his dialect
studies of the native French-Americans of
Illinois.
