DEMOCRATS IN SESSION.
Confusion Reigns at Opening of New
York State Convention at
Albany.

Albany, N. Y, April 19-The demo-
cratic state convention to elect delegates
to the national convention and to nom
mate electors at large and presidential
electors was called to order here Mon
day afternoon. Great confusion result
ed from orders which had been given to
keep the doors closed until the last mo-
ment. The result was that when the
doors were opened at three minutes be-
fore two o'clock the crowd burst in with
a yell and rush. In three minutes the
top gallery was filled with a stamping
and shouting mass of men and boys. In
the galleries were a number of Hearst
banners and a running fire of shouts and
comments was maintained by the gal
lery crowd.
While the delegates were assembling
rumor gained circulation that Senator
Hill and the Parker forces had partially
decided that between the sessions of the
convention they would inform the Tam
many people that they would concede
choice of Charles F. Murphy in the dele
cation at large to the national conven-
ton.
Order was finally secured and Former
State Senator George Raines, of Mon
roe county, was introduced as chairman
and he delivered a speech to the con-
Yention.

EncouragingKnows Nothing
of Appointment.

New York, April 19.-Gov. Hunt OF
Porto Rico arrived here Monday on the
steamer Ponce from San Juan He will
remain in the United States about two
weeks. Gov. Hunt said he had not heard
OF his appointment as Judge of the

pointment. He will spend considerable
time in Washington in connection with
his official duties and in any event will
return to Porto Rico at the end of two
weeks.
Speaking of conditions on the island
Gov. Hunt said:
Just at present a strong effort is be-
ing made to promote market in the
United States for Porto Rico by prepar-
ing for an extensive exhibit at st. Louis.
Coffee will be the feature of the islands
exhibit, though tobacco, fruit and cotton
will be well displayed. Americans are
planting oranges quite extensively. The
groves areedoing we'll and investors feel
encouraged. Cotton is attracting at
tention, too, and bids fair to be very
profitable. There are no pests to en-
danger the cotton. American capital is
finding its way into Porto Rico and con-
ditions are generally encouraging in all
respects. They will be greatly improved
however, if we can better the markets

land Natives Catch Them.
In Fiji and other Pacific islands the
natives have an ingenious plan Of cap
turing the male crab. The native goes
out in the late night, and when he
hears crab at work up a tree he
climbs up some fifteen or twenty feet
the tree is generally a hundred feet
high or mOre-and ties large wisp of
grass round the trunk. The crab, hav-
ing finished his work, hurries down to
his partner for feed, travelling back
ward, as usual. When he comes to the
treacherous clump of grass, thinking
he Is once more on mother earth, he
let's go his hold of the tree and of
course goes down smash, breaking his
legs and getting stunned, to fall an
easy victim to the native boys who
come round with their baskets in the
morning. The whole of crabdom ap-
parently regarded this as mean trick
when it came in first, and they are
now very circumspect on their expe-
difons, so that few are caught in this
way.
In his hole the land crab makes him.

so well that the native women burrow

A TEST OF FLOUR.
II Is quite an Important Event In
the Big Mills.

the Big Mills.
The letters xxx which decorate
our flour bags are source of mystery
to the average housewife, but get there
very naturally. In the largest -four
mills several tests are given all flour
sent out, but the final test is the bak-
ing trial. In kitchen attached to the
-four mills, which is Respondent with
shining pans, electric ovens and white
cooling boards, there are loaves Of
bread made daily from the different
samples of -four which have just been
ground. Cooks are kept the year
round for this purpose, for as many
as sixty loayes are made daily by one
mill alone.
Exactly at 8 o'clock in the afternoon,
after the bread is done, the head mill
ers file into the kitchen and cut and in
spect the different loaves. No man
knows which -four has come from his
mill, so the test is an Impartial one A
vote is taken on the best loaf, and the
-four from which that was made is
marked with the mysterious KS. So
great has this business of testing -four
become that one great mill has testing
rooms to which samples of grain are
sent from all over the United States
and Canada. These samples are made
into bread after going through minia-
ture flour mill. After the bread has
been made the package of grain is sent
back to the miller who shipped it with
full directions how to mark his flour,
whether best or second best.

MINNESOTA NEWS.
How We Grow.

MINES ota's leading cities have made
substantial growth during the past
three years, according to statistics
just complied by the census bureau
showing the population based on esti-
mates for the different cities during
the years since decennial census of 1900
The total for the six leading cities
during 1901 was 100000 and in 1902,
47s, ITO, and during last year the total
was 49,, ATT.
Some of the leading cities made sub
stantial gains during these years and
the population statistics now show
that st. Paul has advanced from 1851
O65 in 1900 to 172, O39 in 1908. Minnea-
polls gains from 202,7 to 214, 112. The
growth of st. Paul has been steady
each year, jumping up about 5000 each
since her decennial census in 1900.
Duluth has made a gain of about
5000 during the three years, and is
now given population of 81, 1877. Man
kato has increased from 10, 500 to II, 1877.
Saltwater has made only slight gain.
Her total in 1900 being given at II, 318
and in 1903 at ~, 636. A gain of nearly
a thousand is noted in Winona, the to-
tai in 1900 being given at 49, TAT, and in
1903 the population was put at 20, 1877.
The growth of all these cities has
been steady during each year since 1900.
The most interesting fact in connec-
ton with the growth of ST. Paul is
that it has thus far since 1900 gained
practically in the same ratio as during
the period from 1890 to 1900, and if the
same ratio is continued the population
in 1910 should be more than 200, 700.

Typhoid Fever.

DR.. H. NJ. Bracken, secretary of the

1902. The largest number of deaths oc-
Cured in Minneapolis, where 1O1 per-
sons succumbed to the disease, as COM
pared with sixty-four in the previous
year.
The table bears out the fact that st.
Panl is one of healthiest large cities in
the country. There were only eight
cen deaths from typhoid feverin the
capitol city, decrease of eight in 1902.
Duluth had forty-one deaths in 1903
and thirtytwo in 1902.
