An even half century ago Mr.. Har-
rington settled on a homestead of 100
acres at the west end of Wayzata bay.
This tract was later plated by Mr..
Harrington and is now known as Fern
dale.
Mr.. Harrington s life was one Of
great activity. Born in. eastern Canada
in 1915, his parents migrated to Ohio
left home, went to St. Louis and taught
school in Missouri. In the spring Of
1886 he left Missouri and travelled afoot,
thru the then practically uninhabited
state OF Illinois and into Iowa, where he
spent several years. After seven years ;
absence he returned to the old homes
stead in Ohio. In 1853 he married Miss
Minerva Hoagland. In 1854 he moved
to Minnesota and had resided almost
continuously at Minnetonka until his
DEATH. He was a cousin Of the late
Colonel John Harrington Stevens, and
a lineal descendant of Colonial Gov
ernor Bradford of Massachusetts. His
sterling character and rugged indie
pendence made him loved and respected
by all who knew him. His reminis-
cences of adventures and wanderings,
largely afoot, over a great portion of the
middle west were full of thrilling inter

SC Let your light so shine reads the
good book, "that all may see your good
works. Taking the above for a text,
1t will be well to throw some light on
one of the most pleasantly situated and
picturesquely located little cities in
innesota-Granite Falls.
Granite Falls is situated on the Hast
Milwaukee & st. Paul railroad, and the
Willmar & Sioux Falls division of the
Great Northern, 12l miles west Of Min
neapOlis. 1t nestles in romantic spot
on the banks Of the Minnesota river,
and has population of some 1900.
While the city proper is on the west
bank of the river in Yellow Medicine
side in Chippewa county, on which side
is located the Milwaukee depot, three
elevators, lumber yard and goodly
sprinkling of residences. The city is
virtually founded upon rock, as gran
tie is in evidence everywhere, the val
ley being filed with rock thrown up
by some great subterranean upheaval
mile wide from bluff to bluff. The city
takes it's name from the almost natural
granite dam that blocks the river at
this point, making a splendid water
power. There are three good water
powers situated within one mile above
and below and in front of the city, only
one of which is in actual use at the
present time. Two miles below the city
is Minnesota Falls, where a dam is now
being put in to take advantage of the
best waterpower on the river. A pow.
erhouse is to be erected there in the
spring and the necessary machinery put
in for transmitting power to Montevi
dec, seventeen miles up the river.
Granite Falls is one of the few cities
in the state. that owns it's own electric
light and waterworks plant and that
r runs the GO sane tbe by water power A few
water power half a mile above the
city, constructed good dam and built
powerhouse, in which was installed
a first-class electric lighting plant and
electric pump. Thus, instead of pay
ing out $4,000 a year for coal, the ma
eehinery is run by water power at prac
tically no expense at all, which permits
light and power to be furnished al
very reasonable rates. A large tank
was erected on the high bluff above
the powerhouse into which filtered wa
ter from the river is forced by pumr

 gent request that each Chapter remem-

 A committee of three was appointed as a result of this request as follows: Mrs J. w. Grant Mrs. George Cotton and Mrs. w. M. Hunter.
 An interesting program followed inter- spcrsed with vocal selections by Mrs. BrodnAx and Miss Lewis. which were greatly enjoyed and appreciated.
 As the Battle of Mobile Bay was the study, the most of the selections were that subject But one particularly inteH- esting article was read by Mrs. Brannon. written for her by Brigader General Battle. concerning an interesting cpl sode during the war which occurred at Forts Barrancas and Pickens.
 Since our last meeting. at which steps were taken to procure a flag for Camp Barlow, the Chapter learned of the gen eroslty of a young lady who requested that she might have the honor of con- ferring or donatiAg the flag. The Chap ter greatly appreciated such generosity. and willingly transferred the flag work to the new donor.
 Dainty, cooling refreshments we served. and very much, though hurriedly enjoyed as the on-sweeping rel clouds. that made many hearts quail, brought very pleasant meeting to a hurried ose.

OFFERS s1s,ooo IN GOLD
For New subscribers--Kentucky Publication Has Novel Sub
 scription plar

One of the most novel methods of sd- vertising ever adopted is that Af the Kentucky Farmer and Breeder, a new racing, fancy stock, and agricultural weekly published in Lexington, Ky.
 The proprietors had set aside $12, 600 to spend in securing subscribers. Instead however, of buying space in other publi- cations. preparing elaborate advertise ments. and employing agents. they decid- ed to offer the entire amount directly to prospective subscribers--decided simply to ask people to subscribe and to offer them as an tnducement the chance to share the $12.00o.
 Here Is the plan. Everyone who sub scribes to the Kentucky Farmer and Breeder for a period of six months at a. is allowed to make out and send in with his or her subscription list of the three horses he or she believes will come under the wire first in the Brooklyn Handicap. which great race is to be run on May 18th next
 If Q person sends in a years suhscrip ton he is allowed to name two lists oe winners; If two years subscription four lists.
 After the race has been run $1o.oO0 will be divided equally between those who are found to have sent in the three winners in their proper order. In addition to this there Is $2.o00 to be divided between the three people whose correct selections are received first; the | first getting s1.000. the second $750 and the third $250 Thus no matter how | many correct lists are received-no mat Ire how many will be interested in the | division of the s1O,OO0 the first three to send in correct lists are sure of very sub stantiaI rewards.
 The official list of Handicap entries is now out and those who care to subscribe to the Farmer and Breeder can begin at once to figure out which horses will be the winners.
 This novel advertising plan is attract ing a great deal of attention throughout the country and will no doubt prove a great success.

A RAINY EASTER.

The raindrops fall Ike weeping maidens' tears, When pleasures of the heart are turned to pain Der sweet joys vanished ne'er to come again. I'erlshed forever with tho passing years; From leaden sky no silver gleam appears Oh, why this monday night? This mist and rain: Oh. should we look for light. and look in vain. Now Christ is risen? Soul forget thy fears. The altar lamp burns bright, tho flowers are sweet; The tapers beam-joy's come, though na- ture mourns, Faith is ahame and we are at His feet; The roses crown replaces one. of thorns. And, like the rock that hid the perfect day. By angel hands the cloud iS rolled away.

 Madame President, Alabama Division. U,
 D. C.:
 My Dear Mrs. Wood-As the Daughters of the Alabama Division have been for several years interested in the effort to erect a monument to Alabama's noble Confederates who fell at Shiloh, 1t will no doubt, at this special time, nearing the anniversary of that battle so dis astrous to us, be inspiring to know more of the work that Is being accomplished at Shiloh Park.
 The Commissioners having charge of the entire work there are Col. Cornelius Csdle of Ohio Major J. H. Ashcraft and Gen. Basil Duke of Louisville lately ap- pointed to take the place of Col Josiah Patterson, deceased. A great deal has been done for the improvement of the grounds within the park: battle lines and positions of troops located and marked by historical tablets. large cast Iron tab lets with records of position of such troops, Union or Confederate, who held the position, Mir Atnell Thompson, civil engineer being employed to carry on this part of the work
 One hundred and eight monuments have been erected by Northern States, none as yet by the Southern States.
 Illinois has State monument costing S2O00; Illinois thirty-eight regimental monuments. cost about 800 each; Indiana. twenty-two regimental monuments, cost about a,0OO each; Pennsylvania one reg mental monument. cost about S'OOO; Ohio thirty-four regimentaI monuments, cost about H,OOO each; Iowa eleven regi- mental monuments. cost about $1.6O0 each; Iowa one State monument, cost about $I5 GOO.

rhA southern Cross of Honor.

The Southern Cross of Honor.
 A chief officer of the State ork U. D. c. I am frequently asked what the require ments governing the bestowal of cross- es on the Confederate Veterans are, es- pecially by the new Chapters although the rules and regulations are given by the Recording Secretary U. D.. c. at the time of sending certificate blank for the veterans.
 A recent communication from the custo- dian makes necessary this announcement in the event U. c. V. camp does not exist in the town where U. D. C.. chap ter is located rigid care must be exercised by the Daughters in accepting the blanks filled by veterans. The custodian assures me that the mere signature of two vet erans Is not sufficient. that the applica- tions for crosses must have the sworn testimony of at least two well known persons of honored positions And the applicant must have been a soldier of more than a few months service. She states that numerous complaints are made to her O fpersons waring the Cross of Honor who are utterbly unworthy ' The Veterans in their State conventions are urging the U. D. c. to make their rules more rigid; for, they value the cross far above rubies. and to see 1t worn by one unworthy, to them, is akin LO SdCTllebS'
 The following is a resolution passed at the Georgia Convention U. c. V. held in Augusta last November. Resolved. That the Daughters of the Confederacy he re- quested to amend their form of applica- tion for Crosses of Honor. so as to re- auire the sworn testimony of at least two witnesses who personally know the appli- cant's record as a Confederate Soldier, and th2t such record was of a faithful soldier to the end
 Several cases have been cited where ap- plicants were frauds and the Chapters bestowing crosses were unable to reclaim them.
 General Evans says: The above reso- lution Is an important one, as the med als are worth more than the stars in the skies, and the man who secures one un- fairly. is not it's owner, and he not only degrades himself, but violates the laws of the State.'
 As the time approaches for the bestow- al of crosses on Memorial Day April 26. I urge the carful consideration of the rules.
