HIS SHOW WAS OVER.

The Way an Entertainer Snubbed q
Snobbish Patron.
An Engl1shwoman Of decidedly snob-
bish instincts, but socially intrenched
behind great and new riches, once en-
gagged the late Corney Grain to give
an entertainment at her country house.
She left instructions that the enter
ta1ner when he arrived was to dine
with the servants. The butler, who
knew better, apologized, but Corney
was man not easily disconnected,
wrote Jerome K. Jerome. He dined
.'ell and after dinner rose and ad-
dressed the assembled company.
well, now, my good friends" said
he, IF we have all finished and if you
are all agreeable 1 shall be pleased to
present to you my little show"
The servants cheered. The piano
was dispensed with, and Corney con-
tr1ved to amuse his audience very we'll
for half an hour without it.
At 10 o'clock came down a message
Would Mr.. Corney Grain kindly come
up into the drawing room? Corney
went. The company in the drawing
room were waiting, seated.

marked the hostess.

EMULATE men
HOT POLITICAL FIGHT IN STATE
FEDERATION ELECTION.
Mrs. Dore Lyon, Defeated as Head of
Official Ticket, Is Nominated from
the Floor-Trouble Over the Trade
School Pushed by Mrs. Lyon.

Syracuse, N. Y, Nov. 1.-After four
hours of wrangling, during which one
woman tainted and many called re-
peatedly for adjournment, Mrs, Philip
Carpenter was today declared the head
of the official ticket of the New York
State Federation Of Women's clubs,
and Mrs. Dore Lyon was forced to ac-
cept the nomination from the floor:
The trouble began when Mrs. Dore
man of the trade school committee.
Despite the fact that discussion from
the floor was cut off till Wednesday,
she was permitted to deliver some
sharp raps at the women who "refused
to carry out the work to which they
had pledged Themselves This led to
a demonstration by her party, who APP
plauded and cheered while she prom
ised the support of the legislature for
the school.
Feeling passed all bounds when Mrs
J. M. Calder brought in a ticket headed
by Mrs. Carpenter. Miss Ann Rhodes
moved the adoption of this as the Of
cial ticket. Mrs. Fiske of Brooklyn
challenged the validity Of the nominal
| ing committees action. This caused the
widest confusion. Every. effort was
made to overthrow the nominating com
mittee's report and secure to MRS
Lyon an equality of prestige with he1
rival.
The ticket was finally Endorsed. Nom
nations followed: Of al! the names
presented, that Of Miss Mary Garrett
secretary, was the only one that passet
without a dissenting voice. Mrs. Jen
ney Of Syracuse will be elected VIC

RAILROADS
PROSPECTS GOOD
FOR HAWLEY ROADS
BETTER EARNINGS FOR M. b ST. L.
AND IOWA CENTRAL. ~
Little Probability That Preferred Divi-
dends Will Be Reduced and Both
Roads Are in Position to Earn More
Money, Gross and Net, Than They Did
Last Year. -s.-
Special to The Journal.

Special to Tho Journal.
New York, Nov. 2.-The Hawley rail
roads, so-called, the Minneapolis & St.
Louis and Iowa Central, are stated by
passed the most dangerous period of
| their history to date, and to be now in
q position to earn more money in both
gross and net than they did last year.
1t is the belief of the management that
the roads have seen their worst earn
ings for some years.
Nevertheless. the current earnings Of
both roads are not up to much. They
appear to be at the moment about hold
ing their own, with the odds slightly in
the favor of 1905 against 1904 or 1903,
but with 1902 away ahead of any year
the first four months of the fiscal year
1905 Just about enough to pay fixed
charges and preferred dividends, and
leave no surplus. This is about what
was expected from the first few months
of the year. That the preferred divi-
considered better than was to be ex-
pected.
1t can be said fatty. that there is
no probability the company will be com
PEELED to cut or reduce it's, preferred
diridsn1s H.; II it does, the NECESSITY will
mont. This stock is held in small lots
all over tho country by. poor people in
many cases, and the aim of the com
pany is to let it remain in present hands
so far as possible, and not disturb the
stock lists; as would be the case if The
dividend were changed: Therefore ev
cry possible effort will be made to keer
the earnings in net up to the require
ments of these dividends. The task will
not be difficult, Judging by the fact thai
in the face OF two very bad years, anC
the loss Of Rock Island patronage, thu
dividends have been fairly earned.
The common stock is another cues
ticn. 1t was once doomed to abnorma
prices by an energetic pool. which tool
hold at about the right time and sent
the stock skyrocketing with the rest o,
the market when Gates was the king
pin Of the Wall street market. Now i
Is suffering from the natural reaction
The PEOPLE who once were it's bes
friends look askance at it. "Once bit
ten always shy' is an excellent maxim
IN Wall street. It is quite safe to sa,
that the old crowd will wait awhile be
fore anything happens in Minneapoli
