WRITTEN FOR THE SUNDAY REPUBLIC.
With the third series of Olympic games
scheduled for this city~next year. interest
centers on the records made in the previ-
Gus contests. While the distances are un-
familiar to American eyes. accustomed
as We are to having measurements of
yards and inches, it will be found easy
to compare the performance under the
metric system. with those under the
American notation
Alvin C. FranZlein. formerly OF the
University of Pennsylvania. and one of
the most noted athletes of his day, holds
three Olympic records. He is expected 10
participate here. AS some of the records
We're made in the first meeting in Athens,
seven years ago. there certainly is
strong prospect that those marks can be
broken when run off under climatic con-
ditions TO which the American athletes
are accustomed.
The metric system will prevail in the
games next year. This system Is most ac-
Ceptable to all countries, and, as the
matches are to be international. their
wishes were Of weight In all foreign
countries except Great Britain the metric
system is used in all athletic contests.
The majority of Olympic records are
held by Americans. Nearly all were Gre
ated at the meeting in Paris in 1900. \
few records are held by foreigners, includ-
ing the sc0-meter run. by Tysoe of Eng
land; the 40o-meter steeplechase, by Rem
mer of England; the discus throw, by
Bauer of Hungary, and the Marathon run,
by S Loues or Greece.
Director James Sullivan has mapped
out most elaborate programme Of events
and it is thought that the conditions here
will enable some of the Olympic records
to be lowered next year.
Names of all the leading factors in ath-
letics throughout the country have been
selected as members of the various COM
mittees. All varieties of sport are pro-
ided for. The games which are in the

HORTICULTURE At FAIR
A Fine Exhibit Of Minnsseta Frui,

A Fine Exhibit Of Minneseta Fruit.
Advance reports from the fruit
gro "ers of the state indicate that the
horticultural exhibit at the coming
Minnesota State Fair will be perhaps
the finest ever seen on the fair grounds.
It Is regarded as good year for
apples in this section, while other
fruits If not the very best condition,
are at least of fairly good quality
and plentiful in quantity. This year
the horticultural exhibit will occupy
a part of the great agricultural hall
but it is hoped within a year or so
to have bulldog for the exclusive
use OF the fruit growers. Only q few
years ago both agricultural and
horticultural exhibits occupied CON-
paratively small building;. nov the
fair has grown so enormously that
both departments are much crowded
in the great agricultural building,
nearly 250 feet square.
The fruit display is one OF the d.
visions at the fair which is exclusively
Minnesotan. No fruit is displayed
which is not grown within the borders
OF the state. This makes the Depart
ment OF special Importance as show
ing to visitors from other places what
Minnesota can do in such an i'm
portant branch as horticulture. In
fact it has been noticed that people
from other states east and south have
been very much impressed with the
horticultural exhibits of years past.
The State Fair viii this year open
on August 3lst and the management
guarantees that the fruit department
as we'll as all other divisions of the
fair will be in complete order at nine
O'Clock on the morning of the open
ing day. Half fare rates have been
made on all railroads..

lack of nourishment. Advertise!
5. Successful advertising not only
pays the advertiser but those who do
the buying as we'll.
Adwrtters need not be afraid of
words. These are all right when
used properly. It was by use of words
that Othello won Desdemona, and it
was the eloquence OF Marc Anthony
which stirred the populace to wrath,
against brutes and tho rest. It is not
the u~e of words which is to be
guarded against, but the misuse of
them.
5. An advertising campaign of
reasonable magnitude is in itself an
indication of quality in the com.

recognize this. THAT must be q
good article, for I see it ADVERTISED

ledge that advertising is more or less
costly. and that it cannot be used
pro6tably to exploit inferior goods.
The public has learned that there 10

Ditumiuous Miners Increase.

The old wage scale between the btu

twenty states expired March 81. The
1902 agreement will continue in several
western and southern states until June

lucky, Pennsylvania and other states
where the miners and operators have
agreed the new scale is in force.

blind. In the spring of 1888 he went
with his fathers family to Jacksonville,
ILL.,. and in 1843 he became travelling
preacher of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, serving charges in various Sec
tons of the country. Mr.. Milburn was
twice elected chaplain of Congress (the
first time in lS45, when little over y
years of age), was twice chaplain of the
House of Representatives, and lastly
chaplain of the Senate, to which office he
was elected in 1898.

pREpARING wHEATCORNER.

P. Ogden Armour and other wheat
bulls associated with him in the corner
now being formed in Chicago will need
millions of money and wonderful nerve
to conduct their campaign. They are
counting on a war in the far East TO be
of some assistance to them. They expect
that the MacedC nian Turkish trouble
will cut off certain wheat shipments in
tended for the markets of the United
Kingdom and the Continent, and that
this will create an improved demand for
cash wheat in the American markets,
and will also assist in absorbing the in-
creased supplies now coming forward
from the southern hemisphere.
Crop conditions are against bull
campaign extending beyond the middle
of July. Never in the history of the
Chicago market has the crop outlook
been so favorable as at the present time.
Every county in the winter wheat belt
reports the outlook as ideal, and adyices
from the southwest are that harvesting
will be begun in Texas, Oklahoma and
southern Kansas in about six weeks.
The situation is especially suited to a
bull with plenty of money and daring,
and these qualities are possessed by the
Armour-Valentine aggregation. The
shorts are scattered, but the important
ones are located at Chicago, Min
neapolis, Duluth, ST. Louis, Kansas
City and the seaboard.
The battle in the Chicago wheat pit
is still in its infancy. The skirmish Of
Thursday when the bear crowd threw
overheard at least 5000, 900 bushels,
which was grabbed up by the Armour
Valentine aggregation, is reflection of
what may be expected after the COM
batants have been fairly warmed up.
The Armour Valentine bulls are now
holders of 5000, 900 bushels May and
1000, 900 bushels July wheat. From
the lowest figures of fortnight ago
advances of SIC. for May and 9sc. for
July have been established. On paper
the bulls have a handsome profit. In
order to secure this profit they will
have to sell out, which would mean a
sharp loss in prices.

DEATH or BLIND CHAPLATN.-Rev.
William Henry Milburn, the venerable
blind chaplain of the United States SEN
ate. died in Santa Barbara, CAL, yester-
day. Mr.. Milburn, accompanied by his
two nieces, the Misses Timley, left Wash
ington tor the Pacific coast about year
ago. The chaplain was in broken health.
The change brought no great improvemel
in his condition, and whern Congress met
in December he eforwarded his resignation
to Washington, but it was never acted
on. The deceased was auative Of Phila-
delphia, where he was born in 1923.
When he was five years of age playfel-
low accidentlly struck him in the left eye
with a piece Of glass. For two years he
was confnedto dark room, under medi-
cal treatmen,t and when he came out one
OF his eyes was entirely blind ana little
