pouring in last Saturday morning,
only one person has suffered a loss,
and that was because he voluntarily
went against the lock game.
More than two weeks ago Police
Superintendent Conroy gave orders to
all his officers to pick up all suspicious
characters and to order them out of

vagrancy if there was sufficient evil

other time of the year.
The regular work of some of the
officers has been changed for the
week and more men are stationed in
the heart Of the city to keep the

.HOMING PIGEONS
GARRY THE NEWS.
CHAMPION YOUNG BIRD OF
AMERICA IN USE.
The journal State Fair News to BE
Entrusted to Carrier Pigeons for
Transmission from the State Fair
Grounds to the Journal Building in
Minneapolis-Ho mers on Exhibi-
one of the new features Of the 81

One Of the new features of the state
fair is the utilization of homing
pigeons to carry the news of the fair
daily between the Journal building at
the fairgrounds and the Journal
building in Minneapolis. This is the
first time in the northwest that this
method of news transmission has
been employed. The first bird will be
liberated each afternoon at 1880
o'clock, and at intervals of five min
utes carriers will be sent on their
downtown trip The birds We're un-
so we'll did they work that T h e
them the important task of carrying
the news from the grounds to the city.
This feature will doubtless prove
attractive to the thousands of people
who have never seen a carrier pigeon
make his start. The birds to be used
by T h e J urnal come from the
cotes of j, H. Barton of Minneapolis
and are champion stock. One Of the
birds, the first to be released each
day, is a champion of America in the
young bird class. In the 200-mile fly
Of the National Federation of Ameri-
can Homing Pigeon Fanciers assoc
citation this bird won the 20O-mile
race, covering the distance at the rate
Of 1;6oS.04 yards per minute. This
This game bird will carry the heavy
end Of The Journal s day re-
port and the birds which follow will
carry the bulletins.
Homing pigeons never start in the
same way twice. Some. when released,
circle for a time and then attempt to
return to their basket. Others rise
almost straight and then make drive
for their home cote with the speed
of the wind. They sometimes make
wide detours in determining the di-
| rection, but seldom. if ever, lose their
sense Of direction. Possessing almost
human intelligence and an endurance
and speed greater than that of any
other living creature, it is small won
der that they are the objects Of so
much admiration among the pigeon
fanciers.
To those who have never seen these
| pigeons work, the daily transmission
Of news by T h e ournal will be
a pleasing novelty. The birds will be
on exhibition at the Journal build
ing, state fair grounds, turnout the
mornings of the fair. and all are well
come to look them over.
| Watch for the birds!

BOWLER SCARES
HARMONY AWAY
THE MAJOR ATTACKS "THIs MAN
JOHNSON"
Hennepin Delegation Splits at Meet
ing Called to Get Everybody To-
gether on Gubernatorial Candidate
Some Deals and Trades Sug-
gested, but They Fall Thru.

Things fairly boiled over at the
caucus in the city hall Saturday even
ing Of the Hennepin delegation to the
democratic state convention. And
Major j. M. Bowler, who has before
this campaign been heard from
in a like capacity, was the man who
created the heat for the boiling. The
conference 6 o1ner called to harmonic the
with harmony conspicuous by it's alb
sence.
It was Major Bowler who attended
a harmony meeting Of Hennepin
democrats some time ago, and had
to have his head sewed up before he
came away. Tt was Major Bowler
who, to promote harmony, was made
chairman of the democratic state con-
vention at Duluth-before the close
Of which a riot call had to be sent
was evidently this same brand of
harmony with which the major
stuffed every pocket before he at
tended last Saturday evenings caucus.
The meeting had hardly opened,
before Bowler brought up the name
of John Lind as the best man for the
a fha said
understand that he is a fair country edi-
tor, but do not know that he has eve,
done anything to entitle him to the nomi-
nation. do know that while he was state
senator during Mr.. Linds administration
as governor, he repeatedly opposed Mr.
Lind and worked with republicans. In
spite Of that he might answer, were il
not for the fact that he was trotted out
by a coterie of goldbugs. and one or two
Hearst or half-Hearst men who met ir
ST. Paul and adopted resolutions indorsine
him.
He then went on to characterize
Johnson as a Hill candidate, trotted
out by Cardinal Dick O'Connor OF
st. Paul.
Things were doing from the time
on. Alderman Dwyer. hit one at
Bowler by asking if he was so strong
could to xiii Lind during the Hears
campaign. Ed Stevens called atten
ton to the fact that the country
would, indeed, think Hennepin wa.
trying to hog things If it asked fol
Lind's nomination as governor, ant
also for F. G. Winston as lieutenant
governor. An effort was then made
to endorse Winston for Lieutenant
governor and Lind for the supreme
| bench; but it fell fiat.
Ed Stevens then threw a bomb by
announcing that F. G. Winston, af'
ter being slaughtered in the house o,
his friends, would withdraw and re.
fuse to have himself considered longer
as a candidate.
Major Bowler then made a motion
for adjournment, which barely pre-
vailed, without the caucus having &C.
complished a thing but the making Of
a great split in the Hennepin dele
cation.
The following committees were ap,
pointed: For headquarters during
| the convention: n. "A. Austin, &c
/ Stevens, Frank Larrabee; reception
Phillips, Hatcher, Bowler, Odell
Rinehart Haynes, Nelson. Georgt
F. Porter was selected as a represen
| tative on the new state central com
mittee and Frank Larrabee was rec
commended as a member of the reso
| lutions committee. Judge James r
| Corrigan presided at the caucus ant
will act as chairman of the delega
ton.
