AT THE HOUSE OF THE SHAH
Henry Savage Lander Was There and
Tells All About II.

One Of the few foreigners who have
had the privilege of an intimate in
spection OF the famous palace of the
shah of Persia. at Teheran, is A. Henry
Savage Lander. and he, in Across Gov
eted Lands" returns with the state
ment that this renowned house is very
far from the barbaric affair that most
persons suppose. Near the throne room
is a very modern billiard room. The
walls are covered with paintings and
the furniture is, piece by piece, the best
that can be bought in the shops of
Paris. what fault there is being in the
contrasts.
Throughout the whole house, too,
there is not rug-and rugs, of course,
are the only carpeting-which is less
than fifty years old. The table service
Is Of excellent European make, and
each piece bears the Persian lion and
sun, surmounted by a crown. The
shah's favorite room is a small one, the
walls of which are entirely of mirrors.
There is a low red couch or two here
and silk rugs from Herman, Kashan,
and Sultanabad. There is also
here Benson clock, with thirteen
dials. which tell the years, seconds.
and everything else one might wish 10
know" The chairs and tables, how
ever, are of cheap bamboo, in the ia
miliar folding pattern, and on the walls
are several pictures, an enlargement OF
L photograph of the shah and smaller
photographs of the car and czarina.
The imperial writing desk is adorned
with two small portraits of the same
pair of royal persons.
Aside from the famous globe, in a
nearby room-a globe made OF jewels

mime piety to keep vigil over his every
day acts, this sturdy empire builder re-
manned at his post, blazing out the
path of fame and introducing thrift and
civilization in his wake. Like the cow
boy he is slowly passing into history
but his fame is as far-reaching as civil
lization, his name indelibly stamped on
the pages OF history, while the humble
dugout with its original environments
will appear in scenic pictures above the
footlights of future generations"

Lost Article Departments Stock Was
Largely Increased in Fair
Week.
List Of Finds, Including Umbrellas
Unusually Long Who Gets
the Stuff?

The street railway company's lottery"
was fully replenished last week. The lot
terry Is the lost-article department. The
company holds articles left on street cars
for thirty days; at the end of that time,
If uncalled for, they are given back to
the conductor who turned them in.
Sometimes the conductor doesn't care
whether he gets an article or not. For
instance, what does he want with set of
some ones false teeth? Or what would
the family say If he brought home an I'M
called for child after it had been held at
the street railway office for month. If
the find Is a wallet filed with bills, or
bundle of the days purchase at the bar
gain sale, of course the fare-taker heaves
sigh when the real owner turns up.
The usual list Of things left on the street
cars by careless passengers who are in
town for the fair is, perhaps, a little
longer that in other years, and especially
long In umbrellas. A big load has to be
brought up occasionally from the Mid
way, and If the finds were not removed
often from the coop at Hennepin and
Washington, the car checkers would be
pushed out on the roof
Minneap olftans are familiar with the
fact that they can apply for lost goods
N and Second street. In fact, many rush
right to that office when they lose any
thing, whether they are sure it was or
a street car or not. It Is we'll for stran-
gers in the city to know that almost in
variably conductors turn in anything Of
value which they find when the cars are
unloaded. If some dishonest passenger
makes the find first, the company cannot
HELM it.

scale Of 81 day for nine hour day.
With them will go the bricklayers who
struck in sympathy with the building

The arbitration committee will report
Jan. /, but it's decision will not become
operative until April 1, 1904, and in the

HANDLES HARD PROBLEMS
Charities Finds Peculiar
Summer Relief Cases.

The managers monthly report to the
executive committee Of the Associated
Charities shows that there were seventy
seven families dealt with, as compared
with sixty-two for August one year ago.
This difference shows an increased knowl-
edge of the facilities and character Of the
work done by the association, and not an
increase in the amount Of suffering in the
city. The month was marked rather by
the difficulty of the problems than by the
number Of applicants.
For instance, a husband going to the
harvest field, leaving a wife with slender
resources and without mental capacity for
their use or the ability to plan for herself
and children, and sick woman with three
children whose husband is in an insane
hospital, typify two Of the sorts Of prob
lens which can be wisely met only with
positive, considerate treatment, which. in
these cases included the payment Of rent,
securing provisions, and the development
of definite plans for the future.
The employment department provided
SOC days work for women; and 1877 odd
jobs for men, none Of whom were able tC
take a place In the harvest field.

THE Cad" PROBLEM
Rev. G. S. Rollins Of Park Avenue Con-
eregatlonaI Church Discusses Edu-
cational Question.

The fads In public schools should give
way to better teaching of the fundam en-
tails, and there should be more room for
the pupils and fewer pupils for each
teacher, in the opinion Of Rev. G.. S. Roll
Inns, who made his Sunday evening ad-
dress at the Park Avenue Congregational
church q protest against present public
school methods and accommoda-
TONS Mr.. Rollins voices the SEN
timent that it would be far
better to devote the greatest energy Of
,, the public school system to teaching the
English language and other things essen
tial to a successful business life.
Among other things Mr.. Rollins said:
1.-THE old New England district school,
with all Its faults, used at least to
teach us thoroly to read, write, spell and
| figure
| "Another fault Of the public schools.
which can be ascribed to this same over
crowding, is the loss Of personal relations
between the teacher and her pupils, and
a consequent loss which Is felt all during
life. The teacher is not to blame. She
cannot establish a physical, mental anG
moral influence in sixty or seventy five
personalities, all of which are different
| and require separate study.
"She does the best she can, but toe
often the only results are fatigue and i'm.
patience, and troublesome consciousness
of failure. 50: -E
"Public schools should have experiment
stations, in which to try the new idea.
and fads, and not adopt them into tn,
regular courses until they have beer
proven, beyond peradventure, to be those
which will strengthen and benefit them"

healthy increase in business, and this
week work will begin towards charging
the store w. M. Small, well-known
buyer Of silks and dress goods, and e.

Of laces and ribbons, have been incor-

business and their connection with the
Kerr Department Store will be appreci-
ated by a host Of Minneapolis shoppers.
]. w. Kerr, whose name is known
throughout the northwest for solid bust
ness integrity, started his first store in
Minneapolis 16 years ago at 1908 Washing

business grew to such an extent that 1t
was found necessary to occupy three ad-
joining stores. Two years ago the Kerr
Department Store occupied its present en-
viable location at Nicollet and Seventh

WANTED OLD CITY HALL
Ole Garley Was Discouraged, How
ever, at the Price,

Ole Garley has decided that he does not
want to buy the old city hall.
Mr. Garley is a middle aged stranger Of
uncertain appearance who registered from
Spooner, Wis, and who has been around
the city hall for several days. He is also
man of ideas who carries a pink per-
sonal card the most prominent feature of
which are his initials, 20. G." in big type.
Likewise he is a man Of strong religious
convictions. Having read much in the pa
pers Of the bad moral tone of Minneapolis
he concluded that this was the place and
that the old city hall would be about the
right spot to begin on.
So he left with City Clerk Lydiard a
Weirdly Worded communication to the city
council. Thursday, asking the council to
name its price. Then he had a talk with
Acting Mayor Jones. It is said that AL
derman Jones estimated the cost Of the
old building at 100000. This seemed to
discourage Mr.. Garley, who disappeared
in the direction of spooner.

Seventeen Tickets for a Dollar After

After Sept. 16 milk will cost 8 cents a.
quart in Minneapolis. This final decision
was reached at a largely attended meet
ing of milk dealers held Saturday even

is caused by the increased price of feed.
