The December Smart Set.

The feature of the December Smart
Set is undoubtedly the novelette,,
ssClavering and His Daughter, a
story of Washington life, by new
author, Foxcroft Davis, whose meteo-
ric entrance into the field Of fiction is
likely to be the sensation Of the sea-
son. Totally unknown, this writer's
first manuscript was not only accepted
on sight by one of the most conserva-
tive Publishing houses in America,
but two new books we're contracted for
to form series of three, all on the
national politics and society centering
at WASHINGTON. Meanwhile The Smart
Set has secured the first work to be
published under the name of Foxcroft
Davis-a story of q remarkable man
and remarkable woman in the inter
esting setting of life at the nation 8
capital, which no author has yet
known so intimately and vitally. The
appearance of this story is an event.
It is a supreme test of the rest OF
the December number that even such
a novel as "Claverlng and His Daugh-
ter cannot overshadow the merit of
the excellent short stories which fol-
low it. Particularly does "The End
of the Story by Emma Wolf, stand
ont from the mass Of midwinter fiction
an unusual story of unique situa-
ton, tragic in its intensity, with a
climax whose strength is equaled only
by the subtlety which leaves the read
er with the book in his hands, living
it over again aid wondering.
The two words which epltomize the
whole number are Merit and Variety.
The poems bave the excellence and
range always to be found in The
Smar Set, and in the stories are hu-
NOR, pathos, romance, tragedy,
comedy.
A hint at the subiect-matter OF some
of the stories proves their varlety-a
life-mystery in India, very human
comedy among Western cowboys, a
manifestation of the subliminal self
which decides a naval battle, how
three people face an ethical problem
in their lives, strange million dollar
legacy, a fanciful satire on realism
and idealism in life-views, a bit of
the supernatural in real life. on wo-
men and wine, and-just a love-story.
Some of the names on the title-page
are: William R. Lightou, Theodore
Waters, Zona Gale, John Vance Che
ney. Tbeodosia Garrison, Morgan
Robertson, Kenneth Brown, Rosa
mond Marriott Watson, Clinton Dan

More Entries for the Automobile Races

Among the recent entries for the au-

The list of entries is increasing

Several years ago t h c

Of one of the ladies. Mr..
Beveridge arose, approached
the front of the platform, and
began talking to the audi.

The chairman of the occa.
sion was William Deacon.
now managing editor Of the
Indianapolis News, and he
did not like Beyeridge, any

GRIees & CO.

Although there are today in various
parts of the country many concerns
which conduct their business on a So
called wholesale to the consumer
basis, yet there are out very few of
them that really live up to their claims.
Among the very first to make such
an offer to the public was the house of
Griggs & Co., doing business at 1910 and
1872 East Third street. St Paul, and the
chief merit of this house, aside from
the service rendered, lies in the fact
that they really keep the promises held
out to the public, and sell their goods
IN original packages to the consumer at
wholesale prices.
GrlggS d Co. commenced business in
st. Paul first. some twenty-e eight years
Some years ago. however, they gave up
their retail trade, and now devote their
entire time to selling direct to the con-
sumner for cash at wholesale prices. as
We'll as to dealers, hotels, restaurants,
large farmers and public institutions.
The growth and prosperity of the firm
is sufficient testimonial to the populari-
ty and success of their plan, this con-
sldered in connection with the lasting
friendships established between the
firm and its customers.
The firm makes no pretenSe to hand

they market nothing but the best PRO-

when he first came to st. Paul,
in 1857, to the gigantic opera

MI. Gotham came to this coun-

Business prospered, and in 1865
he moved to a store on Third

exclusive jobbing and manufac-
turing business.
Later he took in Mr.. George M.

THE GOODYEAR RUBBER COM
PANY

There is probably no firm connected
with the rubber trade today whose
name is more widely known as a
synonym of "the best for the least"
than that Of the Goodyear Rubber
company, represented in their ST. Paul
store by Mr. James Suydam.
Strict honor in Its business trans
actions and none but reliable state
ments have ever marked the company,
and the high quality Of its goods
stands without question.
Mr.. F. M. Shepard, the company's
president, has been with the business
for over fifty years, and at all times
has been the directing mind and influ-
ence throughout the cesHpsny's plans
and transactions. For forty-five years
Mr.. j. A. Minott was associated with
him, and now Mr.. F. S. Minott, Mr.. J.
A. Minett's son. is secretary, and Mr.
F. M. Shepard Jr., Mr.. F. M. Shepard.s
son, is treasurer.
The ST. Paul branch of the Good
year Rubber company was opened Ia
1885, and Mr.. Suydam came to St Paul
as manager. He has been associated
! with the company since 1856. first In
New York and afterwards In Chicago.
From 1875 to 1885 he was manager of
the milwaukee store. Associated with
the st. Paul store besides Mr. Suydam
Is Mr. j. j. Tallmadge, who has been
with the company twenty seven years.
Two Of the statesmen were formerly
with the Milwaukee store and have been
in the employ OF the company twenty
seven years: two others have been
with the st. Paul store for eighteen
! years.
The company has had many advan-
tages in that they have been the man

4 Former Yakima Boy Stirs Up
Public School Circles At Seattle.

J. 4. kingsburv, formerely of this
city, now principal OF the Georgetown
public schools, suburb OF Seattle, has
caused sensation in that city. On
Wednesday of last week he made an adj
dress before the teachers institute in
which he criticised the method Of teach
ing patriotism in the schools. The Post
Intelligencer has published ms address
in full and roasted him to the extent of
a column editorally. Mr.. kingsbury is
a graudate of the high school OF this city
having been educated here with his sis
ter. lie was considered remarkably
bright Young man, but is a socialist and
seems to entertain very peculiar ideas OF
patriotism. \ brief dispatch to a Tacoma
paper speaks OF Mr.. kingsbury's re-.
marks as follows:
\ decided sensation has been created
here by the utterances OF j. \. Kings
bury, principal of the Georgetown pub
lie schools, at the County Teachers in
stitute. He attacked the methods OF
teaching patriotism in the public schools.
saying: "Iou notice that throughout
these teachings runs the military idea
and when war l. on, even though it may
be an inhumau war OF conquest, or Il
war TO quell rebellion of some cranks
such as Patrick Henry, Samuel Adams,
Washington, jefferson, or Aguinado,
who have the effrontery to fount prin.
ciple in the face of a divine decree or 4
packed legislature, then the watchword
of patriotism is: !, My country, my coun-
try, right or wrong'-that ilabby idea
that the patriot in time OF war must
postpone virture, and if evil he officially
decreed, follow the multitude to do it.

EDITOR OF THE COAST
CHARMED WITH YAKIMA
Writes Entertaiuingiy of Both the
City and the NaIIey-tiospitable
People and Great Country.

The March number of Wilhilins'
Magazine, The Coast, has the following
to say Of North Yakima:
North Yakima. Washington. is fam
Gus a. Il city built by the power of irri-
CATION and sustained through wet or dry
flood or drought by producing coun-
try. II is the seat of Yakima county.
which lies in the central and southern
part of the state, and which has pop
ulation of Approximately l. 800 at the
present time. OF Yakima county it
might he said that twenty years ago it
was desert plain of dust and sagcbrush
in summer and the bowling place of
coyotes and wild dogs in the winter.
Herds OF cattle roamcd its acres and the
redman found within it's borders II
hunting ground of game and fish. To-
day Yakima county is II county of farms
fertile and productive and of homes
cosy and comfortable. These CON
ditions have been brought about
through the settlement within her
boundaries Of men with determine
ton and spirit who have turned the
mountain torrents and the upper waters
Of the Yakima river from their natural
course and spread them ont over arid
lands through irrigation bitches reaping
as their reward, prosperity and thrift
us certain as the seasons and as album
dant as the immense fertility of the
soil will Yield.
Yakima county embraces $500 square
miles and the soil is basalt and volcanic
ash, with some alkali in the valleys, a
soil the most productive known. The
country is traversed 10y the No. Pacific
Railroad which offers shippers an out
let east and west. The principal crops
raised are alfalfa, hops, vegetables, fruits
and melons. The grazing of cattle,
horses and sheep, is also carried on ex-
tcnsively. 1t is the most extensive
sheep raising country in the state.
The Yakima River rms diagonally
through the county, and with its valleys
of the Scah, Mckee, Ahtanum, Wenas,
Cowychec and Tonnewock creeks and
rivers comprise region unsurpassed in
agricultural resources and beauty Of
surroundings. The farms are, for the
most part, small, thus aftording a max
imum OF attention to the area cultivated

suits.
The first impressions OF North Yakima
scenes upon the stranger are fascinating.
Here. amidst the rolling plains OF sage
brush and dust, where no forests or
hills a,e outlined against the sky, city
of bright and attractive buildings greets
the eye. Fine brick blocks line the
business streets and the avenues OF the
residence portion of the place are dot
ted with pleasant and elegant church
and school buildings and cosy and in
