Tuberculosis From Dusty Streets.

The Pennsylvania State Society for
the Prevention of tuberculosis has
made such earnest representations of
the danger from street dust that the
city council of Philadelphia have an
propriated four thousand dollars for
! the sprinkling of streets. This action
is commendable, but something more
thoroughgoins ought to be done.
There should be a law passed in ev.
cry State prohibiting the sweeping of
streets when dry. Paved streets
should be cleaned by flushing with wa.
ter rather than by sweeping. The ex-
pense is probably not much greater.
and the saving of life would be enor.

Prof. copeland's Division of eaul.

The following concerning Prof.
Charles Copeland, instructor in Eng
lish at Harvard. If often told at the
expense of three students at the uni
versity.
1t was source of great annoyance
TO Mr.. Copeland to have students come
into the lecture room late, and, al
though he occasionally demonstrated
with them, there were always strag-
glers.
On one occasion when the professor
was well along in his lecture he was
interrupted by three students, who
made rather an unceremonious en-
trance into the room. Without a word
he calmly surveyed the tardy trio.
Indeed he continued, turning to his
auditors with a sardonic smile, "it
has been truly said that all Gaul is di-
vided into three parts.''

ribly scalded while putting wood
in the stove. A boiler full of
scalding water standing on the
stove was upset, the contents

the boiler pulled partly of the

that an inquest over the body of

unnecessary, as the circum-

plainly to suicide and no one is

CORONER MARCUM RETURNED
FROM LONG TRIP.
Remains of Ed Farmer and Albert

Coroner e. H. Marcum re
turned this afternoon from Thief
River Falls and northwest Bel
trami county, where he was
called to investigate the circum-
stances surrounding the death of
Albert Hier, who was found near
his cabin in the town of Benville.
DR.. Marcum decided that an in
quest was unnecessary, and the
remains were buried at Carmel.
DR.. Marcum got back as far as
Thief River when he received
word that a settler by the name
of Farmer had been found dead
about 100 miles farther out in
the same direction as the first
catastrophe. The home of the
unfortunate man is on tine Rapid
River, about twenty miles north
of Red Lake. The drive was a
long and strenuous one and both
DR.. Marcum and Deputy Sheriff
Brose, who accompanied him,
are quite glad that it is over.
The doctor found that Farmer
had simply been frozen to death
and it was not necessary to hold
an inquest over the remains. The
unfortunate man was found last
Wednesday near his cabin and
his neighbors thought he had
met his death by means of foul
play.

Able Address BY Mr.. ErWood
at Court House Last
Evening.

=
The lecture on spiritualism at
the court house last evening was
well attended, and while the sub
jet was new to many of those
present, the closest attention was
paid to the speaker during the.
entire discourse.
Mr.. Erwood, who is an inter
esting speaker, declared that the
Bible is full Of phenomena tend
ing to show the continuity of
life, and quoted numerous pas
sages to show that the return of
the dead to earth is taught by
the Bible. He pointed out that
.creeds are becoming less narrow,
that all churches are learning to
be more tolerant, thatthe only
way to serve God is to be Of use
to man, and that this was the
creed Of spiritulism. He showed
how all hope of Immortality is
based upon spiritualistic phe.
nomena.
The subject for tonight will be.
'sMen Of Science and What They
Say Of Spiritualism." The meet
ing is for the public and every.
one is cordially invited. The
service will begin promptly at
eight o'clock.

Iron in Crow Wing.

There is strong evidence that an
important iron range may exist in
Crow Wing county. This is not based
on the fact that explorations have been
in progress couple of years, or that
the explorers claim to have discovered
important deposits of ore, but the sig
nificant fact that some of the big iron
mining operators are beginning to give
the district their attention.
The firm of Pickands, Mather e Co.. +,
one of the large independent mining
and furnace concerns of the United
States, has taken options on properties
on the Guyana range in Crow Wing
county and will drill the ground. The
firm has taken options on three tracts.
Cuyler Adams of Dulth, who has been
at the head of a company to explore
that territory, the last two years and
conducts the negotiations with the
prospective lesees. His company has
spent large sum of money and they
claim to have discovered iron of mer-

quantities

field school say that they hope to hear
of the speedy rehabilitation Of the
broken man.
A hitherto unpublished bit of the val
ley lore illustrating the force Of Mr..

went to the Moody school: "On the hill
across the valley from Bonar hall lived
Farmer Caldwell, an atheist. Moody,
gloomy, detected and unsustained or
soothed by any of the graces Of his
faithful wife or frightened by the low
ing prattle of his children, this farmer
vowed to hate the names Of Moody and
Sankey. They filled him with hatred.
The beautiful valley had too much OF
the life and JOY that these men had
put into it to suit him.
Zone day his wife announced that
she was going to take the children to
| the Moody and Sankey meeting across
the river. He offered no objection. Tho
birds in the great elms were doing
their best to furnish free song for his
entertainment. Suddenly from over the
river, from the knoll before the old
church where deep-lunged Mr.. Sankey
