Court Chaplain Wallin has invented
curious sanitary communion cup.
Within the cup are placed small reser-
voirs for the wine, one for each COM
municant. There is no connection be-
tween the reservoirs, and they are
showed out one by one by means of
simple mechanism when the cup is
to be used. The old cup is apt to re-
main in use for a long while yet,
because it does not seen to be so
dangerous to the health of those who
use it as certain people were trying
to prove it to be a couple of years
ago.
The new laws regulating the sale of
liquor have been in operation about
one year. Axel Berg, prominent au-
thority on the subject, states that the
consumption of taxed beer has de-
creased 20 per cent, and that of un-
taxed beer still more. But at the
same time the consumption of distilled
liquors has increased.

State Fair Success.

"Our state fair of this year has been,
IN one sense, our greatest success, 2"
said Secretary E w. Randall, ''for in
spite of the heavy handicap we had to
contend with in the unfavorable
weather, our receipts were but little
less than those of last year. The total
credits for last year were 1915, GIG. Sc,
and those of this year will run we'll
over 5000, 900, which we consider very
favorable considering that it either
rained hard or threatened rain nearly
every day of fair week.
The board of managers of the state
agricultural society met at the office of
Secretary Randall at the fair grounds
to close up the business incident to the
recent fair. The treasurer, however,
submitted statement of receipts up
to date which showed credits as follows:

DENMARK.

A new bank has been oponed up in
Copenhagen. A branch will be opened
in Stockholm, and the chief aim of the
cial intercourse between the Scandi-
nayian countries. The capital stock is
81, 100000.
1t is practically settled that CO.
operative sugar factory will be started
at Charlottenlund, near Malmo. AS
the aim of this will be to build up an
independent plant, the sugar trust has
been endeavoring to foil the scheme
ever since it was proposed. Those
farmers who wish to share the expect
ed profits have to 81 gn a contract to
furnish beets for at least five years.
Crown Prince Fredrik of Denmark is
not in the habit of making speeches.
But on a recent visit to the military
camp at Boris he was received so COR
daily by several thousand people that
he could not refrain from making the
following remarks: 1.-THE beautiful re-
ception which the people have given
me has been extremely gratifying to
me. I am to bring you hearty greet
ing from my beloved father, his majes-
ty, the king. You may be sure that
no heart beats more warmly than the
kings for the country and the people.
Let us unite in the wish that he may
occupy the throne for many years to
come. I also wish that you will gather
around the men who are now sitting
in the kings council, and they shall
succeed in carrying our dear old coun-
try forward to honor, liberty and pro-
gress." The address was received with
great enthusiasm.
A stock company has been organ
lied in Copenhagen for establishing
and operating automobile routes for
general traffic through different parts
of the country. Both passengers and
freight will be carried from the very
start. The capital stock is $4,000.
1t is proposed to consolidate all
country breweries in Denmark to put
an end to the present competition,
which is simply ruinous. The capt.
talization of new combine would be
about $4,O0O,00O.
The examination of the captain of
the Inflated Norge has been closed,
and legal proceedings will no doubt
be commenced in order that it may
be ascertained whether the company
or any member of the crew can be
made responsible for the disaster.

Household and Office furniture repre-
sents one-twelfth of the aggregate per-

Office furniture was retur ned in these

the state board added a. per cent, or

of last year for this class of property as
it was left by the state board. The

A huge timber wolf menaced the
uves OF scores of people in the train
sneo OF the Union station, Minneapo-

ing pin after a hand-to-hand struggle.
Inc animal ran swiftly in the wake
OF passenger train and was not no.

Ihere was crowd clustered around
the coaches, when suddenly the wolf
appeared it its midst.
"A panic was created in an instant.
women screamed, children yelled and
tne men were too astounded to act.
Everyone rushed towards the gates,
while the wolf, it's wicked mouth wide
open and its long tongue hanging out,
scampered up and down the foreclosure,
IN ana out among the scurrying pas
sengers.
Then from the end of the shed a
small colored man, William Hines, 21s
Nlcolett avenue, threw a rock which
grazed the animals head. A few Sc
conds later Hines saw two coupling
pms lying close to the track just out
sue OF the canopy and, picking one up,
ne hurled it at the animal.
The missile caught the animal in the
side and with a yelp of ,pain and rage

hines hurriedly seized the other pin
and as the wolf jumped at him, hit it a
glanclng blow on the head. The animal
managed to seize Hines by the left
hand, but was soon beaten to death
with the weapon of iron, not, however,
until the gloves which the negro had
worn were tore to shreds and his hands
and face badly lacerated.
The man had dog with him but he
refused to attack the wolf.

Nearly 900 Bodies So Far RecOv-

New York, Jure Evidence OF
a startling nature, which doubtless
will have an important bearing on
the result OF the coroner's inquiry
into the Gen. Slocum disaster, was
Forthcoming at the inquest today.
Perhaps the most unexpected IN
cident was the continued refusal
to answerquestions of Henry Lund-
berg, a United States Steamboat
Inspector, who was supposed to
have inspected the life preservers
and the hull of the Inflated steamer.
His refusal was based on the
ground that an answer might tend
to criminate him, and he acted on
the advice of his counsel.
The coroner committed Lundberg
to the House of Detention, but later
accepted $500 bail for his appear
ance at the hearing tomorrow
which was satisfactory to the AS
sistant District Attorney.
