Sugar Factory.

St. Louis Park.-Insurance adjus-
ters are at work determining the loss of
the Minnesota Sugar company. The
only salvage will be the value of the
old iron. The figures given out of the
loss sustained-ahout $4OO, 0O0-are un-
changed. Fortunately for the beet
growers, the efforts of the company to
secure a market have been successful,
and the Menominee Sugar company, of
Michigan, will take over all the sugar
beets contracted for by the Minnesota
company.

State Fair.

Hamline The state fair of 1905 will
be held Sept. a. to Sept 9, inclusive,
and will be the most comprehensive
ever held in the United States twill
be much larger even than the great
fair of 1904. No industry will be neg
lected. Each department will be in
charge Of a superintendent, selected
because of his mpetency and expert
ence in that particular line, and each
part of the fair will be gwen well-bal-
anced attention. The fair will not be
strong in some particulars and weak
in others. 1t will be strong in all.
For instance, the great sweepstakes
prize for creamery butter, which has
for several years past attracted an
enormous display at the state fair is
this year, increased from $500 to
81, Oo0
Another interesting prize and a new
one, is that of 500 sweepstakes for ex-
hibits of corn husked and in stalk to
be shown on table three by six feet
with wall space. This suggests the
developed Importance of the corn
growing industry of Minnesota. AS
last year, So 900 goes to county exhi-
bits and similar liberal appropriations
are found all through the book.
The premium list is for free distri-
button. Anyone interested may OBJ
tam it by addressing Secretary E. W..
Randall, State Fair Grounds, Mimi.

Indians.

White Earth.-Minnesota Indians
will not be included in the enumera-
tion of the residents of the state to be
made under the direction of the state
census department.
Superintendent George Wright stat
ed that the enumerators would be in
structed to count only Indians who
were entitled to the rights of suffrage.
In the Leech Lake reservation q large
number of the Indians have partici-
pated in the allotments of government
money, which gives them the right of
citizenship.
The great majority of the Indians of
the state, however, are still wards of
the government and the Indian reser-
vations will be practically free from
the invasion of the census enumerator.
The agents of all Indian reservations
have been asked for complete state
ment as to the number of Indians en-
titled to citizenship.

Her cheeks still bedaubed with paint
Remains Of last nights bushes

Her jewels so very heavy,
And her head SO very light.

Her body is mostly cotton,
And her heart is wholly stone.

ELEPHANTS STRENGTH.
Interesting Experiments Show Power Of Var.
ious Animals as Well as Man.

! ious Animals as Well as Man.
| Experiments we're made at the Mad
ison Square Garden in the hauling
and pulling powers OF different ami
mails and man.
The men, animals and apparatus
were loaned by a circus and the records
were taken by E. N. Wood, the expert
engineer.
An interesting fact brought out was
that, while the camel WAS valuable as
pack animal, it was practically USE
less for hauling purposes. The Siber-
ian camel is the best and most rugged
of any of the "ships of the desert"
which are in use by man to-day.
Babe, young pet elephant, last
year succeeded in pushing with her
head against a 1,20O-pound wagon
until she brought the recording gauge
up to $500 pounds. This time with
the same weight wagon, she struggled
until the gague reached the 1900
mark, thus making the worlds record
in the elephant class for powers of
pushing. Babe failed to break her
record of last year in pulling, which
was $3.50 pounds, only succeeding in
reaching the 6,OO0-pound mark on the
gauge.
The baby elephant and her brother
Albert tried to break their record in
last years pushing contest OF $500
pounds, and succeeded in bringing the
gauge up to $500.
At the last experiments crowd OF
100 men pulled the gauge to the l2,.
00O.pound mark, while yesterday sew.
enty.five men only reached 5000
pounds. The average weight of the
men last year was l2O pounds and the
average yesterday was los.
Two horses of 1000, who last year
brought the gauge up to $3.50, only
succeeded in reaching the 5000. pound
mark. Four horses, however, brought
the scales to 5000 pounds, which
breaks their records of last year by S75
pounds. On the short pull of twenty
feet they again broke their record and
pulled the gauge up to 5000 pounds,
making a gain OF 25O pounds over last
year.
The records which were made re.
Gently will be conclusive and will
hereafter be used whenever science
finds application for them.
The scale was the regulation by.
draulic gauge. Stakes were driven in
the ground at the garden, and to these
one end of the scale was attached by
irons, and at the other were the springs
and ropes used for pulling against the
scales.

TRAINING A HORSE TO THINK


McClure's Magazine.
The process of Hans education, as
described by the Baron (bis owner and
teacher), are simple enough. They ex-
tended over a period of four years,
during which time the schoolmaster
worked eighteen hours a day with his
pupil.
l began the education OF Hans, said
the Baron, by holding up before him
red and white balls arranged on wire
frame-a contrivance familiar to all
teachers in the primary schools-by
means of which he was taught to
stamp once for one ball, twice for two
balls and so on. After that I taught
him to recognize the sign that stood
for the numbers. for which purpose l
used figures cut out of zinc. The al.
phabet he learned by being shown the
several letters, written large, and at
tho same time repeatedly pronounced
by myself, and the sounds OF numbers
in the same way.
Later on taught him to recognize
whole words. by means of the letters
composing them, care being taken to
select only words spelled phonetically
Objects for which these words stood
were shown him as pronounced the
words, so that he gradually came to
identify the words with the objects.
Then came the more difficult process
OF teaching the stallion to express the
impressions made upon his mind. To
do this I would ask him, for example:
"How much is four plus three%
writing 4x3 on the blackboard. Then
l would say" FOUR" and raise his FORE
foot four times. Then I would cay
three" and raise it three more times,
Immediately announcing the result,
seven," and raising his forefoot
seven times. In the same way he was
taught to understand the value of four
minus three, and go on through the
list. OF course, all this required an
amount of patience almost inconceiv-
able, and there were many disappoint.
ments, but his intelligence grew and
grew until it reached the development
that made the world hear of it.
