TEXT BOOKS WILL
EXCITE MUCH TALK
Lively Session of Committee
on Schools Expected To.
morrow Afternoon.

The committee on school books of
the board of education meets FRIDAY
afternoon to consider offers that will
then be made to furnish school books
for St. Paul students.
Inspectors Fry, Fisher, Holman and
Egan constitute the committee. and
for the past month the agents of the
various concerns offering books have
been very active in their efforts to
impress upon the members of the COM
mlttee, on ether members of the board
and on teachers principals and other
school officials that the books they can
supply are really the best.
Quite an assortment of books has
accumulated in the office of the super
1ntendent of schools, and the individ-
ual members of the board have been
well supplied with sample COPIES. I"
ana there is reason to believe that
there will be a lively contest when the
question comes before the full board
at the June meeting.
The text book question is one in
Wnlch the patrons of the schools are
all interested. said one of the inspect
ofs, and If they Were invited to a
public hearing with text books to be
discussed the council chamber would
not hold those who would attend.
When the changes were made three
years ago there was a great uproar,
ana IL the same thing is done at this
time there will be a like cutlery.
Personally l am strongly in favor
OF free text books, and the claim that
the board can~ t afford to spend $15.-
900 year for the books has but little
weight with me. If as many changes
are made on this occasion as occurred
three years ago the cost to the people
OF st. Paul the next school year will
far exceed the amount that it is known
would install free text books. I will
vote against any changes in the text
books at this time if there is any
chance of changes that may be pro~
posed being defeated
A number of persons interested in
this subject will ask to be present
while the book question is being con-
sidered.

NEW POINT INVOLVED
IN INSURANCE CASE
Question Raised in Supreme Court as
to Scope of Word Occupied"

Inc state supreme court yesterday
heard arguments in an interesting in
surance case, involving a point not be-
lore raised in the Minnesota courts.
The point at issue was raised in the
case of F. j. Aipler and NJ. Theresia.
Piper against the Boston Insurance
company, which had appealed from the
decision of Judge r. A. Jaggard, of the
ramsey county district court.
The evidence showed that the de-
neutrality-suspicious. had insured
dwelling house as occupied, when in
tact 1T was not occupied, and the pol
icy written by the Boston company
contained clause providing that if
any time the premises should become
unoccupied without notice being given
to the insurance company, then the
policy should become void. The fire
having occurred and the house not be-
ing occupied, the insurance company
refused to pay the loss.
In the district court Judge Jaggard
held the insurance company liable on
the ground that the word "occupied''
used in the policy was descriptive and
not warranty. The insurance COM
pany appealed to the supreme court.
The court has the case, which is re-
garded with evident interest by insur-
ance men, under adYisement.

ROUSES THE DEAL ERS
Order of Food Commission as
TO Extracts Worries Them.

The order Of the state dairy and
food commission relating to the raising
of the standard of extracts manufac-
tured or sold in the state has created
something of a sensation among man
ufaeturers and dealers, and the office
of the department at the state capitol
was besieged yesterday by men inter-
ested and who called to secure official
continuation of newspaper reports.
They were told that the newspapers
had correctly outlined the plan pro-
posed by the commission and that
there would be no deviation from the
rules laid down to bring about a
higher standard in extracts sold in
Minnesota.
1T is the most important action
taken in recent years." said George L.
Dingman, assistant to Commissioner
Mcconnell, yesterday in speaking of
the new departure. There are but
two brands Of extracts sold in the
Minnesota markets which comply with
the standards to be required in future
by our board. Others are Of inferior
quality and some of them contain the
deadly wood alcohol in quantities that
prove ruinous to the health of the
consumer. There have been good
many calls today from men who are
interested financially in the extract
trade, but we have told them that the
department means just what it says.
The effect of the new order will be to
regulate the trade in extracts and if
dOped articles are used they must be
SO labeled"

TEACHING The CHILD
DR.. S. G. Smith Discusses Sub
jeet at Conference.

The AnoBa conference of Congrega-
tional churches, which began Tuesday
morning at the st. Anthony. Park Con-
gregational church, was concluded last
night. Rev. S. G. Smith, pastor of the
Peoples church, of this city, made the
principal address of the evening, his
subject being 1.-THE Larger Problem of
the Child"
Rev. Smith discussed the problem
from a sociological standpoint, speak
ing of the responsibilities of the state
and society in the matter of delinquent
and dependent children. He spoke of
heredity and attacked the opinions of
Lombroso, the Italian writer, who ar
gued that all depended upon physical
forces, cOntending that mental and
spiritual forces were greater factors in
the problem.
The address was unique in the fact
that the subject was dealt with by a
churchman among churchmen, from a
purely scientific point of view, instead
of the usual clerical standpoint in
which the church figured in such vol
ume as to overshadow @l other argu-
ments.
During the forenoon and afternoon
sessions the Rev. G. r. Merrill of Min
neapolis, discussed the elevated place
the study Of missions has come to oc-
cupy in sociological and chronological
thought
Rev. r. P. Herrick spoke Of 'The
Educational Function of the Sunday
School' in this connection, calling at
tention to the estimate made by the
French commission appointed to look
into educational matters in the United
States, the commission having included
in it's report complimentary comment
upon the Sunday school as, one of the
great sources of the countrys unique
growth in character
T. H. Colwell spoke on Educational
Ideals of Christian Endeavor," describ-
ing the social features employed by
some Christian Endeavor societies to
attract and hold the young people, and
also the movement known as the Com
rades Of the Quiet Hour, to which the
Endeavor society owed much of its
spiritual development
DR.. S. G. Smith, chairman of the
committee appointed to consider the
proposed union of the Congregational
with the Methodist Protestant and
United Brethren, reported that the de-
alterations of the joint committee rep
resenting the three denominations, ap-
proved the proposition and recommend
ed it, believing the union to be wise.

ADMIRES AMERICAN
TROTTERS AND PAGERS
Dr.. Thacker, New Zealand Ranchman,
Will Take Some Home With Him.

The performances of the American
pred trotting and pacing horses on the
race tracks have made good with DR..
w. Thacker, a wealthy sheep and cat
tie rancher~ of Christchurch, New Zea-
land, who was at the Ryan hotel yes
terday on his way to London. and on
his return to the Antipodes he will take
a number of the best standard bred
stock to be obtained in America.
DR.. Thacker, accompanied by his
brother, c. B. Thacker, with his wife
and sister, Mrs. Charles MeCIatchie, ar
rived in st. Paul yesterday morning,
having come over the 500 line and
Canadian Pacific from Vancouver.
They left last night for Chicago and
after visiting st. Louis and the fair
will go to Washington and New York,
and thence to London. Dr. Thacker,
the head of the party, is cultivated
English country gentleman, and owns
large sheep and cattle ranches in New
Zealand. He said;
American trotting and pacing horses
are justly famed the world over, and
on my return to the States I will pur-
chase perhaps a score of brood mares
of the best strains and two or three
stations of acknowledged blood, and
will take them home with me. l have
been a heavy breeder of sheep and cat
tie, but believe that New Zealand,
which, like all the English colonies,
has large population with sporting
blood in its veins, is fruitful field for
the development of the trotting and
pacing game. AT present our races are
nearly all running races, and the thor
oughbred has the call with breeders.
With the importation of number of
genuine American standard breeds I
believe that there will be demand for
this class of sport and that it will pay
the promoters"

MILK DEALERS SLOW
TO TAKE OUT LICENSES
Must Get Them Before June 1, or Pay
Penalty of $25.

Wholesale and retail dealers in milk
are not complying with the legislative
enactment, requiring them to secure
state licenses through the Office of the
state dairy commission, in any such
numbers as the conditions would war
rant.
OF the 675 dealers in Ramsey coun-
ty, only l72 had taken out licenses
yesterday. At Minneapolis, of a total
of 900 dealers, less than 800 had yes
terday complied with the provisions of
the law. The law requires all whole
sale and retail dealers to be licensed
before June 1, and after that date a
penalty of SIS attaches. Not only re-
tsif dealers, but men who deal in milk
by the wholesale and those conducting
stores and diaries where milk is Sold
must comply with the provisions of the
law.
1.-The miIknen of both the Twin
Cities are negligent in securing their
licenses this year. said George L.
Dingman, assistant state dairy and
food commissioner. yesterday. And if
they want to save the penalty of SIS
they had better not delay too long. For
the convenience of Minneapolis milk
men the department has opened an Of
flee at 13 North Fourth street, where
licenses are issued -

YOUNG WADENA DIES
Son of Indian Chief Expires at
Reformatory.

The state board of control has been
advised of the death at the St. Cloud
reformatOry of Charles Wadena, son
of the old Indian chief after whom the
town and county of Wadena were
named.
Wadena is the young Indian for
whom a fruitless effort was made to
secure a pardon recently that he
might not die within the shadow of
prison walls.
He was sent to the state reformatory
in March, 1903, on conviction in the
United States circuit court at Fergus
Falls of introducing liquor on the
White Earth Indian reservation, and
his term of confinement would have
expired within a month. With the al
most certain knowledge that the young
man could not survive his term Of inn
prisonment, District Attorney G. c.
Houpt, Supt. Frank L. Randall and
others appealed to the president for
pardon for the lad, but the adverse
recommendation of the Indian depart
ment resulted in a denial of the par
don, and the boy died at the reform
atory Tuesday.
The remains were taken by the aged
Chief Wadena back to the reservation
at White Earth for interment among
his people.
