MORRILL, MAKES
THE DIRT FLY
HE BREAKS GROUND ON UNIQUE
THEATER SITE.
Loading a Wheelbarow with the
First Earth, He Trundles 1t Two
Miles Thru the DOWNTOWN Streets,
Preceded by the Journal Newsboys'
Band.

Huh, what's the Teller dom 2"
Hes dedicatin' the Peoples church,
youse guy.
Thus conversed two of the motley
gang of gamins which accompanied
G. L. Morrill, thru the streets this
spadeful of earth from the Hennepin
avenue site Of the Unique theater
the future home of the Peoples
church. He loaded the wheelbar-
row, threw a few shovelfuls into a
wagon and then, preceded by the
Journal Newsboys' band, pushed the
barrow for twenty-fv blocks.
The occasion could not have been
more spectacular. Crowds of people
filled the streets and hung from top
story windows to view the circus pa
rade which was to follow. AS the
band and Mr.. Morrill,, surrounded by
his newsboy cohort, progressed, APP
plause was loud and frequent. "Y cure
all right, old man." and similar ex-
pressions were voiced. Money was
showered into the wheelbarrow. The
and will be struck into medals, one
for j. e. Rogers, proprietor Of the
theater, and one for the church rec
ords.
The most priced contribution
thrown into the wheelbarrow came
from HOWARD S1nalley, an S-year-Old
boy who lives at First avenue S and
| Seventh street. It was his widows
mite" his dollar which was to take
him into the circus. He cast it in
| cheerfully. He decided to do this
yesterday while at the Peoples church
service in the Bijou theater, and he
didn't waver when the procession ap-
peared on Nicollet. But Howard is
going to the circus just the same.
Some one heard the story from Mr.
Morrill's lips, and as he was address.
ing an audience from the ruins OF
the old Albemarle club after the pa.
rade, something was slipped into his
hand, which proved to be dolla,
bill marked: For the boy, Smal1ey
from the Webster, S. D., ball team
! Mr.. Morrill,, for the first time in his
! life, handled his subject with gloves
| His attire was a pair Of union-made
overalls, red and white striped shirt
! ,bandanna neckerchief, fishing hat
/ patent leather shoes and buckskir
gloves. The wheelbarrow was deco
rated with ferns, carnations and pa
per fans, which the crowd stripped

Hoffman Stands Pat.
About seventy dog licenses were issued
from the city clerks office this morning,
and the large number at this season OF
the year indicates that the dog catcher,
Alfred Johnson, Is earning his salary, for
the dogs now being licensed are owned
by people who did not intend to take out
licenses, expecting to dodge the dog
catcher in one way or another.
The dog catcher says that nine "Hoff-
man dogs-that is, dogs wearing the
counterfeit tags sold by A. N. Hoffman,
have been impounded and that the own
ers must pay an extra dollar. On the
other hand Hoffman denies that any dogs
wearing his tags have been taken and
says that he will stand by his promise to
guarantee his tags as all that a canine
needs. He says his address is 240 Ply
mouth avenue and that any Of his patrons
whose dogs have been impounded can
secure redress thru him.

BATTLING WITH AN ANCHOR.
Mammoth Mudhook Was Difficult to Handle When the Waves
 We're Tossing It.


 To hoist to the cat-head an anchor weighing 5000 pounds, with a gale of wind blowing and a tremendous sea rising, is a difficult task. The New York Sun tells how this work was under taken on a war-ship in Hampton Roads. In order to raise the anchor to the deck of the ship the hundred-pound cat-block had to be fastened by the huge hook which depended from it to the ring in the balancing band on the anchor shank so that the power of the winch could be utilized
 The great anchor hung so that when the wave receded it was clear of the water, but each incoming crest sub- merged it several feet. As the ship tossed on the waves there was great danger that the enormous weight of the anchor would send the anchor through her thin plating. But with seas big enough to toss the ship about as easily as if she were but fishing float, and to swing that anchor back and forth like the pendulum of a toy clock, it was no child's game to hook the cat block
 Two men were chosen, each a fine specimen of the American sailor. Just under the arms of each line was made fast, and men on deck stood ready to haul away in case of need.
 The two sailors watched their chance, and when the ships head was well out of water, over they went. They had hardly reached the anchor when wave rolled in that surged four feet above their heads. When 1t passed both were clinging, almost breathless, to the shank of the anchor.
 But the instant they were clear of wa ter they jumped to their work and strove to get the block in place. With the ship hauling one way and the wind blowing another there was small chance for them to drag that hundred-pound block in still third way. Again and again they had it almost fastened, when a great wave knocked 1t away and bur jed them far out of sight. Still the two men struggled at their task.
 Then the inevitable happened. The great cat-block swung far out as the ship plunged forward, hung poised an l instant, as if taking deliberate aim, and came sweeping back straight at the head of one of the two men. It struck him on the back of the head and knocked him ten feet from the anchor into the sea.
 The rush of an incoming wave swept him away from the ship, and for a mo- ment it seemed as if he would surely be lost Then was justified the wis dom which had placed the line about his shoulders. The men on deck drew him in, unconscious but safe, and in ten minutes he was declaring to the of ficer in charge that he could surely hook that block the next time.
 But the captain had formed another plan He determined to haul up the anchor as far as was possible, so that it should have the smallest room for play, and to make harbor. Just at nightfall she reached quiet waters, and once more the unruly anchor was let 20 again

Achievements Of the NegrG

Achievements of the Negro.
 Forty years ago the negroes of the south did not own square foot of ground, nor roof to cover them. Now, on the other hand, there are 130,000 farms owned by negroes, valued at $350, O00.000; 150,000 homes outside the farm ownership, valued at s265, 1000, and personal property valued at s1650OO,- 900. So, starting from nothing, here is an accumulation of nearly $800,O00.O00. When the work began not one per cent. of the negro adults of the south could read or write. To-day 40 per cent. can do so. Fifty per cent. of the children are attending school, and with more facilities more would attend There are 500 colored physicians in practice. 300 lawyers and 30,000 school-teachers. There are 3o0,O0O books in the homes of cclored people and they own and publish 450 newspapers and magazines. Chris tian Work.

A CURIOUS ANIMAL.
Facts of Interest Regarding the Opossum by One Who Has
 Studied 1t.

The Virginia opossum, it is thought, ics. but has long been a resident of tenn perate regions also In fact, writes Ernest Harold Baynes, in Woman's Home Companion it has proved it's abil
 ity to flourish in almost any climate, and it's gnome-like footprints are found every winter on the snow-covered ground of Long Island and the Hudson River valley. Nevertheless, it is best known in the south, where to the darkies the ideal sport is possum hunt, and the ideal feast, baked possum an taters."
 An opossum is born in a much more immature condition than any other of our mammals. At birth it is one of a family of perhaps ten or 13, each of which is no larger than newly-born mouse The mother conveys it at once to the pouch or pocket. on the under side of her body, and there it attaches it. self to one of the 13 nipples which are ar- ranged in the form of a ring, with one in k the middle. At first the baby's mouth Is very large in proportion to the size of US DOdy, put soon the IDS contract around the nipple, and the little fellow remains there for weeks without once letting go During this time his mother, by means of special muscles, pumps milk into him as he requires it. He grows rapidly, and when he is about the size of small rat, at which time he is covered with gray hair like his mother, he pokes his head out of the pouch, and even joins his brethren in short excursions onto the back of his parent scrambling back again at the first sign of danger.
