FARM LABORERS
ARE PLENTIFUL
EMPLOYMENT AGENCIES HAVE
NO TROUBLE FILLING ORDERS.
Only Farmers Who Have Reputation
for Treating Their Hands Badly
Find Trouble in Securing Men
Workers Will Be in Greater Demand
Later On.

There is no shortage of farm hands
this year. The employment agencies
have many calls, but the managers
say they have had no trouble in get
ting men to go to the country, except
that the men are trif1e suspicious
of some of the offers made by farmers.
They are willing to work, but want
to know something about the places.
It has been the habit Of some farm
ers to tell glowing stories, Of how we'll
they treated their hands. Upon ar
rival the men found, in some in
stances, that the board was INSULT
cient or badly cooked, and lodging
poor.
Just now men are plentiful as rail-
road work has not opened as yet. One
agency this morning sent six men to
the Dakotas. Each paid his own fare,
and the least paid by any Of them was
$685..
Some farmers always have trouble
to get men," said one Of the agency
no matter what they offer men refuse
to go. They have mistreated hands
in the past. Their records are handed
about until almost every laborer knows
what to expect.
"a little later men will be in de-
mand, but at present help is plentiful.
Most of the idle men are those who
have families, cannot leave for the
summer, and have no means to take
their families with them. Then there
is the usual number2of idle men who
will not leave. They would sooner
starve here than go to the country

HARDY POCKETED
BANANA PEEL
GRAIN MAN TAUGHT RULES OF
HAVANA, THE CLEANLY.
Had Carelessly Tossed Banana Skin
into the Street-Spanish Copper"
Was Soon on His Trail and Made
Him Go Back, Pick 1t Up and
Pocket 1t.

w. Leslie Hardy, the grain man,
was on change again this morning,
after month in Cuba. Mr.. Hardy
came back much impressed by the
cleanliness of Havana, now one Of the
most orderly and sanitary cities in
the world.
A few days before leaving Havana
Hardy was the central figure in a sig
nificant incident. He was sauntering
down the street when "a policeman
placed a hand upon his shoulder and
gave him to understand that he was
under arrest.
Not a word of Spanish could Mr..
Hardy speak and not a word of Eng
lish did the policeman know. They
mixed the two languages badly for a
time, but to no avail. Hardy was
marched down the street, followed by
miscellaneous crowd of idlers.
Around the corner they went and sew
eral miles, it seemed, down the street,
the excitement gaining and the follow
ing increasing. Suddenly they halted
and the policeman with profuse Span
ish explanations pointed to the street.
There on the cobblestone paving lay
banana skin. Hardy recognized it
Some time before he had stripped il
off and thrown it carelessly aside.
When the Americana had picked II
up and put it into his pocket the po.
liceman released him.
Mr.. Hardy met George Bagley an6
other Minneapolitans in New Orleans
and in Havana.

THE GAS METER
WAS OUT OF WORK
D. E. Westin Accused of Tapping
a Main and Stealing Much
Gas.

In police court this morning D. E.
Westin was arraigned on a charge Of
grand larceny, it being alleged that
he did take, steal, and carry away
258,O0O cubic feet of gas belonging to
the Minneapolis Gas Light company
He will have an examination on April
IS.
The value Of the gas is $500. The
company has been trying to find the
leak for some time. Yesterday the Of
ficers called at Westin's hotel, 1906
East Franklin avenue, and found that
the street main had been tapped and
heavy hose conveyed the gas into the
basement where it was used to feed
big burners beneath the boiler. A
meter was connected with the hose for
one hour during which time gas worth
81 cents was used. Westin's arrest
followed.
1t is claimed that the main was
tapped several weeks ago and that the
hose has supplied all the gas used in
the hotel.

A ST. PAUL VIEW OF IT
THE PIONEER PRESS DISCUSSES
THE LAKE ST. LINE NATTER
WITH MUCH VIGOR.

Here is an editorial from the Pho
neer Press Of Sunday, which gives a
St. Paul view of the Lake street trolley
line agitation and its outcome:
A Minneapolis GIve-Away.
That Minneapolis council is a peach"
Friday night it gave the street railway
company the right to run on Lake street
to the middle Of the Marshall avenue
bridge. In other words. it gave the COM
pany ! monopoly of all interurban bust
ness so far as it could-and for what?
Control Of fares? Not much. A gross
earnings tax? Still less. Six rides for a
quarter? Not by jugful. For strip
Of land thirty-three fet wide which the
company doesn't want and has to pay
taxes on; for the widening Of Lake street
by six feet and the resetting the curb-the
whole to cost the bank-breaking sum Of
perhaps $25, scotland for a double transfer
privilege on the line the council has voted
away rights for which the company would
gladly have paid several thousand dollars
u year and for the counterpart OF which
on this side Of the river it will have to
pay on it's present earnings at least $75, 900
a year besides submitting to council con-
troll of fares. In the present temper OF the
public proverbially warm place will be
a skating rink before 1t gets monopoly
Of the interurban business at this end OF
the line. 1t can only do so by proving Its
right to Dulld the line DeIOre Ine courts
or buying the council, and st. Paul has
now and intends to have council that the
street railway company has not money
enough to buy.
o course, in it's fit of generosity the
Minneapolis council did not even take the
trouble to provide that the bridge should
be widened as we'll as strengthened al
the expense of the company, and If the
franchise stands the principal drive be-
| tween the two cities, the connecting linl
between the river boulevards, is spoiled
until the Minneapolis taxpayers get ready
to dig into their own pockets to make the
bridge worthy Of it's function as an essen
tial part Of the finest boulevard system IL
this country.
The most amusing thing about thu
whole business is the deep solicitude o
the council lest the company refuses t,
put Lake street in the shape proposed
and throws up the whole franchise, which
Of course it doesn't want, altho its &C
quirement Of the right will, it thinks, keel
out any competing company and give 1
an absolute monopoly of all interurbai
business. One would suppose that tn
company was doing Minneapolis favo
for allowing the people to ride on it
cars for nickel a strap. This eager gen
erosty Of the Minneapolis council is jus
about two kinds of a give-away.

LIIHO STRIKE
HITS GRADUATES
REAL DIPLOMAS WILL BE
SCARCE THIS SPRING.
Unless the Difficulty Is, Soon Ended,
Schools all over the Country Must
Give Dummy Rolls of Parchment
Instead of the Real Thing.

There is a rift in the lutte of happi-
ness of the sweet girl graduate this
spring. In the past after the S. 6. g.'s
had told Of turning the mill with the
water that is past" and scooped the
class with the information that Be
yond the Alps Lies Italy" the referee
of the oratory called each graduate
forward and placed in her or his
hands a formal looking diploma GER
tifying that she or he had absorbed
all the heritage of the ages" possible
at that particular institution Of learn
ing.
forward turnout the country and pre-
scented with diplomas, but down in
the heart of tutor and pupil there Is a
secret knowledge that all is not right.
1t is like giving Hamlet with with no
appearance Of the melancholy Dane.
The diplomas of 1904 are bluffs,
but rolls of nice white parchment,
tied with school colors and nothing
else doing on or about them.
Just about the time the students
started to bothering the tailors and
dressmakers for raiment for gradua,-
ton wear, the photographers Of the
country walked out of the shops from
Maine to Seattle. Some schools had
a supply of diplomas, but the majority
Agriculture the dummy diplomas were
presented and received, but the fact
leaked out. Inquiry reveals the fact
that the spring crop Of diplomas, rea
Autographed ones, Is short. 1t is said
that most of the graduates have ex-
pressed a willingness to wait until the
photographers strike is over and ther
receive their sheepskins. Some, how
ever, have taken letter-press docu
ments. Higher education cannot be
downed by so commonplace an even
as a strike of photographers in com.
mencement time.

That Is the Real Secret of Success In

That Is the Real Secret Of Success in
Every Walk of Life.
No man should look lightly on an
opportunity to improve his business,
his morals and his health. He who
embraces these opportunities Is the
man who embraces success. The man
who keeps his morals and his health
in good condition and who vitalizes
his energy, need never fear of wolf
appearing at his door. The true ba-
health as a working capital, backed
up by good morals and energy, there
is almost no limit to mans possibil-
tiles. But he must take care Of his
health. He must guard it with the ut
most vigilance. The delicate machine
that gets out of order must be cared
for at once or it goes to rack and ruin.
How much more delicate is the human
machine, and how infinitely much
more does 1t require attention.
If you are feeling out Of sorts, tired,
run down, sleepless, get a bottle Of
Walther's Peptonized Port. You will
be surprised at the splendid results
that will most surely follow. If you
have dyspepsia, flatulency, belching Of
gas, loss Of appetite or any other
stomach disorder, get bottle Of Wal
theirs Peptonized Port. It is a rare
combination Of pure pepsin and port,
and is a most convincing tonic and
health builder.
Walther's Peptonized Port comes in
bottles Of two sizes. so cents and $1.00,
