LITIGATION STARTS ANEW
FAMOUS MEADOW LAWN STOCK
FARM CASE TO BE SETTLED IN
THE SUPREME COURT.

The Meadow Lawn stock farm case
will come before the state supreme
court Dec. 8. The farm in question
is near st. Cloud. The reopening Of the
case comes about thru permission
granted Caroline E. Clarke to file her
answer to the original suit brought by
Thomas S. Mcclure in 1902, to quiet
title to the lands in question. Mrs.
Clarke failed to appear and was de-
clared in default. Relief of default has
now been granted. y 49,
The farms in dispute number three
and include more than two thousand
Together with the buildings, the farms
are valued at 100000. They were
ORIGINALLY the property of N. P. Clarke,
the husband of Caroline E. Clarke. For
the past decade it was supposed the
property belonged to the Mcclure es-
tate and in 1902 IT. s. Mcclure, ex-
ecutor of the estate of Clara S. Nc
Clure, brought suit to quiet title:
There was no comment at the time and
Mrs. Clarke made no answer: On
April 81, 1904, Judge Baxter directed
Judgment for the McClures.
Clarke, who had been millionaire
lumberman, failed in 1895 and altho he
has since operated the stock farm, the
McClures\ have paid the taxes and it
has been understood that Clarke was
Clarke produced quit-elaim deed from
Mrs. C. G. Mcclure dated 1895.
The suit is further complicated by a
suit brought by Theodore Bruener, as
trustee Of Clarke, to recover 100000
from the sale,~of pine on lands trans
ferred by Clarke prior to his assign
ment to Mrs. Mcclure.

.G.O.P. VICTORY WAS
A MORAL TRIUMPH
so SAYS GENERAL w. ID. WASH
BURN AFTER EASTERN TRIP.
He Predicts a Period Of Great Indus
trial Activity as Result Of Roose-
velt's Election - President William
Hyde Of Bowdoin College to Be a
Guest at Fair Oaks.

General w. D. Washburn returned
this morning from a short business trip
to New York, the shortest he ever made
to the country s metropolis. He comes
back with deep inspiration caused by
the cheerful optimism he met on all
sides.
81 The United States is to enjoy "a
period of Industrial activity said Mr..
Washburn, "and the indications are
that it will be long-continued one.
The election of President Roosevelt
naturally ushers in an era of prosperity,
by, stimulating activity among various
enterprises which were awaiting the re-
suits of the election. The political
triumph, great as it has been, is Of no
greater Importance than the moral vic
tory. Clean politics has gained as
much as republican principles and the
election of Theodore Roosevelt is an
OBJECT lesson to young men that honest
effort and sincere purpose win as much
in politics as in other felds.'
Mr.. Washburn is preparing to enter
tain William Dewitt Hyde, president
of Bowdoin college, who will arrive here
tomorrow morning. DR.. Hyde, one of
the leading educators of the country,
will be guest at Fair Oaks for sew
eral days. A dinner will be given in
honor of DR.. Hyde at Fair Oaks tomor-
row evening, at which the Bowdoin
graduates in the twin cities will be in
vited. Mr.. Washburn has made it a
custom to gather the former Bowdoin
students together once a year, but this
will be the first reunion attended by a
Bowdoin president.

Present high prices Of eggs, accord

that less than two hundred cases,

CROWDS CHEER
NEW 500 TRAIN
First Run Over Line Between
Minneapolis and Winnipeg
Most Satisfactory.
From q Staff Correspondent.

From Staff Correspondent.
Winnipeg, Man., Nov. 22.-The run
ming of the first trains over the 500
line 8 new road between Minneapolis
and Winnipeg yesterday was an occa-
sion for celebration in the many towns
thru which the road extends. The two
trains, each leaving a terminus at S
O'Clock last evening, made the trips
exactly on schedule time-ffteen hours
and without a mishap or interrupting
incident. At almost every station
crowds Of citizens gathered until after
all were happy, for it gives them bet
ter railroad service between their homes
and Minneapolis or Winnipeg. d
It is considered remarkable by rail-
road men that the 500 was able to
run it's very first train over the new
tracks at the rapid speed which it pur-
poses to maintain. Here is a new track,
put down by track-laying machine at
a rate which, at times, reached three
miles day, as soon as opened carry
ing it's first train, long, heavy one,
vestibuled turnout, as fast as any Of
the older tracks in the northwest. It
used to be considered that it was nee
essary to build a track on sort of
temporary grading, and then, as the
months go by, work in the ballast by
steady degrees. But the 500 line track,
according to those who made last
night g trip, is remarkably smooth and
firm all the way, and will admit Of very
quick service between Minneapolis and
the city often referred to as "The
Chicago of Canada"
Travel on the first trains was heavy.
In the long train Of Pullmans taken
out of Minneapolis last night, every
berth, upper and lower, was taken.

The Plymouth, I'd Floor for Ladies.
CONR0Y IS A REF0RMER
WILL SUPPRESS THE UBIQUITOUS
TURKEY RATTLE IF IT Re-
QUIREs ENTIRE POLICE FORCE.

Following his order of last year Po-
lice Superintendent Conroy has again
decided that persons who want turkeys
for Thanksgiving must purchase them
unless they are clever marksmen with
poor rifles.
Turkey raffles accompanied by beer
social while the tickets are being
counted out are barred. None Of these
places has opened for business so far
this year and if they do the door will
be closed by the police.
After thoro investigation Superin-
tendent Conroy learned that when the
rattle system was allowed, many work
ingmen. spent their last cent for tickets
hoping to get enough turkeys to last
them thru the Christmas holidays. Few
ever got more than one turkey and hun
dreds got none at all.
. The shooting galleries, however, can
still give the birds as prizes, but the
chance of making enough straight shots
with rifle that shoots curves is no
great temptation.

WORK ON NEW ARM0RY
g.. IS SOON TO BEGIN

Active work will begin on the armory
site in few days. When the big sew
er, now building, is completed, the work
of driving piles for the foundation will
begin. This will cost about $4,000. 1t
is hoped that the sewer will be com
pleted this week.
The armory board has let the con-
tract for structural steel to the Ameri-
can Bridge company of this city, OBJ
tanning a bid Of less than 21% cents a
pound for all the finished steel. With
the reinforcement for the concrete
work it is estimated that about $50
tons of steel will be required. .
The board has come to no agreement
as to the plans, and while it is admit:
ted that those Of Messrs. Langdon and
Turner will be accepted, there will be
some changes affecting the appearance
of the building. 1t is likely that the
work will be covered in one contract
as the board is unwilling to bother
with separate bids for lighting, heating
elevator service, plumbing and tn:
other minor features of building OF
that size.

SHOCKING CASE FOUND
Two Young Girls Accuse Woodsman
and Saloonkeeper.

A disreputable state Of affairs was
unearthed at 1876 Twentieth avenue N
when Martin Ginsberg, sergeant at the
North Side police station, arrested two
girls, aged Is and l6 respectively.
Since then Michael Gruber, who has
a saloon at that place, has been ar
rested charged with selling liquor to
minors and John M. johnson has been
charged with having improper relations
with the older girl. !
johnson had his examination in po-s
lice court this morning and Judge Dick.
inson held him to the grand jury in
$1,000 bail. Gruber pleaded not guilty
and his trial was set for Friday. The
girls were in court yesterday and were
both sentenced to the state training
school on charges of incorrigibility.
In giving their testimony against
Johnson this morning, the girls de-
scribed the conditions that existed at
1926 Twentieth avenue N before the
raid Of the police. The girls had been
occupying rooms above the saloon and
had been in the habit of going down
stairs and getting beer. Last Thurs
day they were both drinking with John
son, who is a woodsman, SO years old.
johnson refused to testify in his. own
behalf and explained that he was in
toxicated at the time. XII

DIED AFTER BEATING
Mystery Surrounds the Death of a. st.
Paul Waterman.

Mystery surrounds the death of Harry
Peters, Waterman for the Towle Syrup
company, who died at the St. Paul city
hospital, Saturday, of pneumonia,
brought on by exposure after being
beaten to insensibility by unknown
hands on Nov. 5. -
That night a sergeant of police from
the Ducas street station found Peters
lying on the ground with his nose and
cheek bone broken. He appeared for
work the next night, but refused to say
anything about the fight. Shortly after,
however, he took to his bed and was re-
moved to the hospital. The physicians
are not positive that his exposure was
the immediate cause of his death. The
police think the man was robbed, but
his assailant cannot be found.
Peters was 81 years old, and is sur
vived by a widow and five children. He
lived at 1872 West Third street.

NO TEACHER FAMINE
St.. Paul Story Of Minneapolis Condi-
lions Has No Foundations.

According to an imaginative st. Paul
newspaper, the Minneapolis schools are
confronted by famine Of school teach
ers. The report places the list Of res
ignations at ninety five, with more
coming, and goes on to analyze the
reason for the disaffection.
The chief trouble with the story is
that it is without foundation in fact,
and for this reason the theories are
left hanging helplessly in the air. There
has been no unusual number of resig-
nations and the reasons have been the
usual ones Of marriage, i'll health or
desire for special professional Study.
Superintendent G.. M. Jordan is expe-
riencing no difficulty in filing all va
scancies as they occur, altho changes
coming in the middle Of the school year
are always harder to arrange satisfac-
torily than positions for. Ia full
year. The list Of applicants continues
large and it is not even necessary to
offer the maximum salary to thoroly
experienced teachers in order to secure
them.

new FEATURES
IN LOCLA PARKS
CANOE ROUTE AND BRIDLE PATH
UNDER CONSIDERATION.
a Strong Movement to Have the Path
Made a Feature Of the Parade at the
Foot Of Lowry Hill ~ Canals Be
tween Lakes Would Create Ideal
Boating Route.

a bride path system and a canoe
route are two possibilities Of Mime
apoi1s revised park system.
Inc former is prospective feature Of
the new Parade at the foot of Lowry
hill. While the saddle contingent re
anzes 1t IS not numerically strong enough
TO demand q great deal, still there is
= FEELING among them that they are en-
Titled to some provision both for what
they already represent in numbers and
Tor the popularity the recreation is like
~ to attain if encouraged.
a strong factor in the bride path
agitation is the automobile. While
stald, old harness horses have gradually
become accustomed to their motor
rivals, the saddlers are in a more spirit
cd class and are wont to make violent
demonstrations at the appearance Of a
power vehicle. This has driven some
OF the riders to abandon the recrea-
ton and has led all Of them to hope de-
voutly for some thorofare exclusively
devoted to them. They entertain the
best of feeling for the "chufers'' and
realize that the streets are for all forms
OF traffic, but argue that a bride path
is as proper a subject for public expen-
diture as is a cycle path. or tennis
court: John Bradstreet, of the park
board, and himself an ardent equestrian,
is heartily in favor Of the Bride path
idea and will use his influence to have
it embodied in the plans Of the Parade.
Naturally the path thru or around this
tract would be but short ride, but it
would be a start in what the saddle
contingent regards as the right direc-
ton.
AS to the canoe route, sentiment is
gaining ground that the value Of the
urban lakes would be multiplied many
fold if they were connected. The plan
of series Of connecting canals is not
particularly new but the plan now
seems nearer realization than ever be-
fore. Tho in a state famous for its
lakes, Minneapolis has never evinced a
strong interest in canoeing. With
Lakes Harriet and Calhoun, Lake of the
Isles and possibly Cedar lake connected,
there would be provided continuous
waterway which as a picturesque, con-
venient and safe route for boating,
could not be surpassed in America. 1t
would extend several miles and resi-
dents Of Kenwood could paddle over to
Lake Harriet to enjoy the concerts
Locks or runways provided with rollers
might be necessary at: certain points to
assist in transferring boats from one
lake to another, but even at that the
attractions of a three; mile voyage thru
still waters would be considerable
Canoes, rowboats3 and small Launches
would be especiallyipo.pular. This plan
has been taken up seriously by-. many
residents near the lakess who will work
to see it made an, early reality. g..
