DUNN'S "OFFICIAL'
RECKLESSNEsS
EXTENDED PERMITS WITHOUT
BoNDsMEN' CONSENT.
State Left Without Security by His
laundering - Measurements by Dunn
in His Rochester Speech Corrected -
AS to Time of Filling Duluth & Iron
Range Grant.

Another instance of the "offcial
recklessness' complained Of by Mr..
Lind has come to light. The law pro-
vides for extensions of timber permits
board. All permits Of any size are
issued on a % per cent first payment,
and the payment of the balance is Sc
cured by a bond. Governor Lind found
that Mr.. Dunn was extending these per-
mits without obtaining consent of the
bondsmen, which in law released the
bondsmen of all responsibility, and left
attention to the looseness of this prac
tice ina letter written to the auditor
May "a, 1899, in which he said:
Hon. R. c. Dunn, State Auditor:
Dear Sir.-In accordance with your rec
ommendation I have indorsed and trans
nit herewith extension Of logging permits
228-B, 209-R and 1873. The others which
you forwarded being logging permits ac-
companied by a bond upon which a par
tial payment only had been made, 1 have
come to the conclusion that it would not
be safe to grant an extension without
the consent of the bondsmen.
1t is rule Of universal application, that
the modification of a contract, the per-
Torrance of which is secured by bond,
without the consent OF the bondsnen
vods the contract. I called the attention
of the attorney general to this matter in
formally, and he concurs in my views:
hence, it will be necessary to have the
consent of the bondsmen to the extension,
before it can be safely granted by the
state, and I accordingly return those per-
mits accompanied by bonds, herewith.
Respectfully yours,
John Lind, Governor.

In his speech at Rochester, Mr.. Dunn
made several mistakes in defending his
action as to the Duluth & Iron Range
grant. For instance, he declared that
the company was required to fill It's
grant within year after the unsur-
| The record of the amended decree on
which the case was compromised shows
differently. It shows that the railroad
company has until after the state has
secured title to all the swamp lands in
the unsurveyed towns, before filling its
grant. The interval between the sur
vey and the securing Of patents may be
several years. This puts off the settle
ment and allows the company time to
prospect the state lands and take what
ever is most valuable for mineral pur-
poses, leaving the less valuable lands
for the state school fund. The amend
ed decree contains the following Ian
guage:
have prior right Of selection in said coun-
ties to fill it's said grant and shall have
until six months after all the swamp lands
in the unsurveyed townships are surveyed
and patented to the state Of Minnesota
by the United States government, to select
lands to fill its said grant.

some rattlebox genius has started the

in a general discussion with the village

man, who has since reached the exalted

ON THE CIRCLE AT
 THE FREE KINDERGARTEN.

The town clock had Just struck g when we walked into the Free Kindergarten on Eighteenth street and Avenue c. At least forty children between the ages of and 6 years of age were leaving small tables, grasping securely with tiny hands their small chairs, preparing to gather around the circle. a painted ring outlined In the center of the floor. A chord from the piano called Attention" Every face had an expectant look. and after moments s waiting the spirited march was responded to by the tramp, tramp of little feet, some already bare. a few In slippers. the ma jority still covered by the heavy winter shoes.
 When the painted circle had become a living one of small girls and boys, an- other chord from the piano said, Halt? The signal was instantly responded to-; another chord said, Place chairs," and down went the chairs on the painted edge, and painstaking were the efforts to have the circle still symmetrical. A final chord from the piano said, Be seated, and now indeed we beheld the perfect cir cle.
 Songs and games followed of the chill dren's choosing The single skip, skipping with partners and the two-step followed, the young lady assistants frequently be- ing chosen, and these seemed as gay ana happy as the gayest of the youngsters
 To sit by unnoticed and study the faces of these unconscious little ones was a privilege-to leave refecting on what this institution means to these children, to their homes. and finally to Birmingham at large, a natural result.
 One cannot look upon that charmed CIT cle even for few moments without ap- preciating the humane discipline exer- cised. where discipline can be detected et all. The Kindergarten one feels, Is a needed link between the nurture of the home and the formed discipline of the school nartaking as 1t does of the na- ture of both. Here the child gets train in9 from association in small groups with children of his own age in an atmosphere outside the home, which prepares him to meet successfully the broader, more com plex life of the regular school.
 Here the almost mother love or the lindergartner inspires the child with re- spect for authority other than that or the mother, surrounding him at the same tlme with such an atmosphere or love that ne inevitably approaches the teacher in the urinary school as his natural friend.
 Not only has Birmingham learned to foster this institution, but even her chill dren are expressing a warm interest in its progress
 The following note was recently re- ceived by one of the officers of the kin dergarten association, and it's valuable and valued contribution will more than meet the experse of one child for the entire session. In addition, the loving thought which prompted these little workers will cheer the hearts of the earn est women working to maintain and ex- tend this work in our city.

PRINCETON MEN PRESENT
 MIR. KENNETH CLAk'S OPERA.

Clark of Birmingham, the son of MT. and Mrs. Frank Leslie Clark The opera was presented a week ago at the Carnegie hall in New York and in Philadelphia on last Friday even- ing. Mrs. Clark went north to witness the production. It will also be given in New Haven and later at Princeton.

He Is one of the most popular men at Princeton, and not only wrote the score of the opera, but Is the leader of the orchestra. The opera Is presented entirely by Princeton students

uNlvoUE CARPENTER SHOP.
Where Students Are Taught Wood
 working and Pattern Making.

From the Philadelphia Banner.
 There is unique carpenter shop in Boston, one where the workman pays for the privilege of working instead of being paid for his labor Though it is a per- fectly equipped woodworking shop, 1t is called laboratory, for in 1t the students of the Massachusetts Institute Of Tech nology learn to plane and saw and to be- come good, practical carpenters and pat tern makers. And what is very surpris- ing is that after comparatively few hours instruction-never more than week, all told, in the whole course of technical training-they turn out work of which the professional who spends his life at the bench or lathe need not be ashamed.
 The students start at the very bot tom-as Is the case In the entire system of the institute-and end by accomplish ing things the average carpenter could never do. Their first problem" is to saw a straight line. and the last is the mak- ing of pattern for screw propeller, for example, and at every step the ama- teur workman learns the strictest econo- my of material, for a piece of wood spoil- ed is never replaced unless there was. a defect in the wood itself.
 The layman may ask. What's the use of making a carpenter of a technical stu dent?'' Well. the reasons are many. None of these young men ever expects to take up carpentry as a life occupation. but all of them sooner or later will be called upon to supervise men who are woodworkers of some kind, and the best way to know just how thing should be done correctly Is to be able to do 1t ones self So besides the ordinary tools of the woodworker's trade. the students are made familiar with all sorts of lathes and saws and spend hours using them.
 The system employed at the institue in teaching these classes is simple and ef- fective A plan of the problem to be worked out is given each student; the students group themselves about the in- structor, who illustrates the problem" by doing it himself and finally each indi- vidual receives the necessary material and sets about it himself. Among the mod els made are wheels with plane surfaces for power belts, wheels with cogs which fit cogs on others wheels, pump cylinders

SOMETHING OF SHOPPING LIFE.

The floor walker bland, suave wear ing the smile that does not come off, mo- tioned the lady in the picture hat towards the table in the central aisle Upon 1t were spread summer silks in various light shades, delicate, pretty effects. The pla- card above said 59 cents, and the picture hat bent over the entire front of the ta- ble. Then its owner caught glimpse of her favorite enemy and the two paus- ed to shake hands. The usual conversa- tion followed, while a dozen other women had been waved to the silk table by the bland, suave floor walker. The colloquies vary. The baby's temperature, little Fred, has been exposed to measles, the cook has taken French leave.
 The girl in the blue Eton elbows her way to the side of the lady in the picture hat and selects a piece of silk Just under <her nose, hands 1t over to the salesady gives her address and goes on to where the lace stockings are marked special at 50 cents.''
 Do you wish anything?' asks the little saleslady. The picture hat lady stares at her indifferently and looks at dozen patterns at once Then she chats to an- other woman who has just bought Mary some ScnOOl 0reSSeSt ItBuidI piiSS $l'oV marked down to 9S cents"
 "Wonderfulr' calculates the picture hat lady and goes through lot of silks with fresh interest.
 The woman connoissieur comes In, over looks the floor walker, Is oblivious to ev- cry other woman she sees, walks over to the lace counter and says coldly to the lady behind the counter, Val lace. please; not real"
 a1h +iler way down the aisle. She looks at everything from dmity, marked at 19 cents to wash chiffons, "advertised' at b9 cents.
 Please show me your mourning larg- nettes." said large lady in black, who pronounced it as if 1t was spelled lar yet.
 In another part of the store two women were struggling over couple of sofa pillows, but the exciting scenes are around the handkerchief and hosiery sales. There are such crowds and the women shoppers clamor for recognition as much as they do at convention when trying to gain the attention of the chair.
 The man who invented the system of marked down goods deserves a place In the hall of fame. He must have had a most psychological turn of mind and been gifted with the most extraordinary Insight into the nature of women. Bar gain day in the Birmingham shops affords splendid opportunity to observe human nature. It is an interesting time to study types, for the woman does not live who will not take advantage of marked down prices. From the woman whose silk lined frock rustles through the shops to the woman who barely possesses street car fare the one word reduced has a singular attraction.
 In regard to the system of marking down goods, manager of one of the largest department stores in the south a said yesterday that the first thing con- sidered was to cut out the profit. If the
