WILL OFFER A SITE
GIenwood Citizens Want That
Fish Hatchery.

Representatives of the town of Glen
wood will appear before the state game
and fish commission at 10 o'clock this
morning, by appointment, to offer the
state a site for fish hatchery to be
located at that place, as provided for in
a law Of last winter. The delegation
consists of former Congressman Frank
M. Eddy, former State Senator C. P.
Reeves, Representative T. T. Ofsthun
and Mayor Callahan, of the town of
GlenWood.
Former negotiations between the
state game and fish commission and
residents of Glenwood looking toward
the acquisition of site for the pro-
posed second fish hatchery proved un-
satisfactory to the board for the reason
that property owners demanded prices
for their land that the members Of the
commission considered eXtortionate. 1t
was found that under the law the COM
mission was merely empowered and not
commanded to construct the new fish
hatchery, and therefore the plan was
abandoned.
Members of the delegation which go
before the commission today say they
are convinced that their proposition
will be highly satisfactory.
The commission assembled yesterday
morning for it's regular quarterly meet
ing with all members present. and after
an executive session which continued
until evening, declined to make any of
the business Of the day public. At the
close Chairman Lamprey stated that
no formal action of any kind had been
taken and no money appropriated
1t is understood that the time was
spent in consideration of reports of
deputy wardens as to recent arrests
and violations of the game laws in va
rious parts of the state, and that pro-
posed improvements at the fish hatch
cry were also discussed at some length.

SAYS THE COUNTRY
ISM GOOD SHAPE
Caldwell HardyS President of National
Bankers Association. Visits ST. Paul.


Local bankers. yesterday had dis
tinguished guesh in the person of Cald-
well Hardy, president of the National
Bankers association. Hardy is en- route
to the California State Bankers associa-
ton at SAM Francisco, and he. was in
the city long enough to have his car
transferred from the Burlington train
to the Northern Pacific coast train which
left last night for Seattle
f'There is little to say about the financial
condition of the United States said Mr..
Hardy yesterday. We are in good shape.
True, some of, the big stocks are being
pushed rather hard, but that does not
count for anything. 1t is only the result of
natural conditions.
Prom what have seen 1 think the
United States is about in as good con-
dition financially as one could desire.
Overproduction may cause disturbance,
but the conservative. interests will GER
tainly maintain satisfactory conditions
There is always a speculative element,
but it's effect is only temporary. The out
look is very encouraging"

best in the world" answered Mr..
Seeger. 1.-The board should be able to
see what it buys"
Will Take No Action at Present.
The fact that the board in its de-
cision to buy posts was forgetting next
years street lighting specifications,
brought Erom Mr.. Seeger a pointed
question as to what they intended to
do in the matter, which brought as
pointed an answer from President
erode that nothing would be done until
the semi-annual inspection was COM
pleted.
We'll" answered Mr.. Seeger, some=
what excitedly, eff this matter is hung
up l think it is a deliberate attempt
to throttle competition, and L intend to
see that the public is made aware Of
the fact. You are not acting fair"
President erode, somewhat nettled at
this accusation, answered that the
board knew what it was doing, and it
intended to treat all sides fairly.
Il guess We are as able to attend to
the city's iterests as you are" retorted
President erode.
Because of the known antagonism
between the two contractors, the board
decided to hold meeting Thursday for
the purpose of preparing specifications
for the supplying Of lamp posts, at
winch the contractors VIII be barred.
These specifications will be presented
to the assembly Thursday evening,
and their approval of call for bids
asked.
The competition for next years bids
is unusually keen, and the lowest
prices in the history of the city are
expected. Because of charter compile
cations Corporation Attorney Michaels
holds that bids cannot be opened or a
call for contract placed until December,
when the budget is approved. This is
one of the reasons why he advocates
municipal ownership of the lamp posts.
About 2 500 posts will be required.

DISCUSS PRACTICABILITY
OF AMBIDEXTERITY
ST. Paul Educator Puts Questions to
Well Known Writer.

In the current number of School and
Home Education appears a discussion
between Prof. H. w. Slack, principal
of the Edmund Rice school, of this
city, and William Hawley Smith, the
writer on pedagogy, as to the prac-
ticability or the possibility of cultivat-
ing children to ambidexterity.
Prof. Smith is opposed to the idea
of trying to teach the young to use
both hands with equal facility, and has
written extensively for the magazines
in support of his position
Mr.. Slack, while not advocating the
theory that ambidexterity is prac-
ticable, has submitted to Prof. Smith
a number of questions on the subject
which are answered in the magazine.

trict of Columbia that Peter Elliott,

Street Railway Employees.

"The Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company now has on it's pay rolls one hundred and fifty motormen and the same number of conductors" said a dis patcher employed by the company. This includes the regular and the extra men. The company is now operating about seventy cars regularly, but of course on special occasions this number is increased in order that the crowds might be prop erly handled. It requires four men for each car-two crews. They relieve one another at different times during the day and night
 "A majority of the conductors employed by street railway companies have served as motorman, and in case of an emer- gency can be called upon to operate the controller of a car.
 During twenty-four hours time total of eighteen hundred cars enter and leave the city of Birmingham. On regular schedules seventeen hundred of these cars pass the Woodward building. Every car entering or leaving the city passes the corner of First avenue and Twentieth street except those on the Bessemer and the South Ens1ey lines"

Uncle Sam owes Virginia.

The New York Sun sums up this bit of history: When the United States government was an infant just setting up shop on the banks of the Potomac there wasn't enough money in the national strong box to build a shelter for 1t. The comparatively venerable commonwealth of Virginia helped the struggling young ster out by lending it s120,000. The loan was authorized by the Virginia general assembly on December 27, 1790. and the money was to be used by the young gov ernment for public buildings For sixty years the creditor made no effort to col lect this loan from Uncle Sam, but in 1850 the federal government appearing to be prosperous enough to justify it, Vir- ginia asked to be reimbursed. The Wash- ington authorities didn't pay, and now Senator John Warwick Daniel has taken up Virginia's claim and introduced bill in the senate for its payment with inter est since 1850. The creditor state is will ing to have Uncle Sam deduct from its claim any money due to him, but she believes it is time the advance was re- turned"

Money in Eoqs.

T cannot understand" said a prominent citizen yesterday. why the farmers and truck gardeners around Birmingham do not make a greater speciality of putting eggs on the market. It is almost an utter impossibility for a man to get fresh coun- try eggs in this city and 1t seems to me that since l have been compelled to pay 261s cents a dozen for eggs shipped here that it would pay for local men and wom- en to put forth some effort to supply the great demand for this commodity. l know that it is a hard matter to keep hens lay ing during the winter but from my own experience I am certain that with pa tience and proper care combined with the right stock that eggs can be produced.
 "I raised chickens myself once as pastirne and out of 24 Leghorns, Il Black Monaco's and game chickens I averaged 23 eggs day from December 1 till March 31. It was an exceptionally cold winter but I had the comfort of the hens looked after, saw that their drinking water was warm and fed them reasonable food and the result was more eggs than I had any need of believe some wide awake peo- pie in the vicinity are taking steps to profit by the present need and are going in for raising chickens on large scale. My advice to them Is to get good stock and plenty of 1t. If they do, they will make money"

sidered a delusion. The collapse stage of the enterprise has been reached.
 The lesson is as old as the stars al. most-as old as our little world at any rate. There has never been an age in which there were not dupes of some Divine Healer or other person who claimed to be the chosen and especial intermediary between Providence and worldly events. Dowie is one of a long list, and he is no more a pretender than many, if not all, of his predeces- sors. Perhaps after few centuries more of education mankind will reach stage where appeals as to the direct agency of the supernatural will not be needed. Man is here to do the best he can, and any fellow being who insists that he is more or less than the rest of folks is per SC a humbug. Dowie Is, or rather was one, and there will be in each generation others just like him. It is to the credit of the northwest that he was quickly uncovered, and that no more robberies under the cloak of re- ligion will be perpetrated from Zion City.
