'"That copy of said decree with the
list of lands annexed thereto was

Of Minnesota at least one month before
the entry Of the decree in such cause"
This undoubtedly placed Mr. Dunn
in a very embarrassing position. Hc

the railroad company for a compro-

and it's terms were embraced in a
decree of Judge Lochren. AS a part
of this compromise, however, Mr. Dunn
had to consent to an abject apology to
the officers and counsel Of the railroa,

BY the terms of this settlement as
confirmed in the decree it will be seen
that not only is the right of the state

his choice and the home of all he loves
best on earth?
Yet at this hour that alternative is in
issue.
The present prosperity and the fu-
ture growth of Minneapolis in it's -four
ing development rest upon the volume
of wheat that enters our mills and
elevators. The production of wheat in
Minnesota and the Dakotas tributary
is at a standstill with little if any in
crease in the annual volume. Indeed,
this year finds shortage. But, aside
from the results Of this years partial
crop failure, it is a we'll known fact
that as new states become settled,
wheat gives way to diversified agricul-
ture. In Illinois, Iowa and Wisconsin
wheat production has almost ceased,
and that tendency is already strongly
reflected in decreased acreage of wheat
in nearly all the older counties Of the
three states of Minnesota, North and
South Dakota.
If Minneapolis, therefore, is to enjoy
growth in its two great industrial and
commercial lines, it must open path
way to new wheat areas.
Northwest of us, just across the Can
adian boundary, is the greatest empire
Of wheat land and high-grade wheat
production in the world. Manitoba
alone has a wheat surplus Of over
80, 100000 bushels per annum, which,
supplemented with the production Of
the neighboring territories of Alberta,

WEST AFRICAN CANNlBALS,

An interesting story is told by the
commissioners who have been engaged
for the last eighteen months in fixing
the Anglo-German frontiers IN west
Africa between the town of Yola and
Lake Tchad
The region traversed is little known
owing to the hostility Of the tribes.
The Fulani villages were found quite
friendly, but beyond Lau. large town
on the Bernu, there lies mountainous
region inhabited by pagans who in
many cases are cannibals.
They were found to be most indus

fields with a good deal Of method. In
most cases, says Reuter-, they were
practically naked, but We're always
armed. Even when at work in the
fields plowing they carried full kit of
spears, shields and poisoned arrows.
The arrows are much dreaded. for
they are tipped with II deadly poison
extracted from vegetables and from
dead bodies. This is carried in small
bottles, and when fresh it proves fatal
in few minutes.
These people are adopts at game

Korean Sessaw.

Korean girls are fond of playing
at seesaw. A bag full OF sand
about foot in thickness is placed
on the ground. Across this is placed
a plank, and stretched alongside at a
proper height for the children to
grasp and steady themselves is a
rope.
The young Koreans do not sit
down, as English and American
girls would do, but stand erect on
the ends of the plank. One gives an
upward spring and as she alights on
the board gives the other skywarl
toss, who, as she alights in turn,
throws the first girl aloft little
higher And so the sport goes on
until in their upward flight each girl
is thrown two or three feet into the
air. Frequent rests are necessary,
but the pastime is the occasion Of
much merriment.
