bank Of the riVer' passed into the hands I
Of a new. corporation, the N Minneapolis
Mill company. In the following year
William D. Washburn, young lawyer,
moved to Minneapoli and soon .ac-
cepted an offer to: become agent for The
company. Under his management, dis
tinguished by energy and foresight, the
company prospered, and after the civil |
war, when railroad building began to
open commercial possibilities to the
city, the company took rapid strides
forward. Railroads opened fertile land
ito settlement, splendid crops of wheat
were raised and transported to Mime
apolis, railroad outlets to the east gave
it market, and the milling industry
advanced rapidly in Importance and
prosperity. In 1866 the beginnings of
the Wash burn Crosby Milling company
were made by General G. G.. Washbur1n
Of Wisconsin, and in 1869 Charles A.
Pillsbury came to Minneapolis and took
leading part in the business. The orr
ginal concern of; Charles A. Pillsbury
& Co. became later the Pillsbury-Wash-
burn Flour Mills com pany. During those
years other names appeared which later
became we'll knox e: the industry,
for instance, the names Of Loring,
Christian, Crosby, sDunwoody and Bar
her, In the ten years after the war the
business Of, foursssmilling was ~revolu-
tionized. For one thing, the invention
of improved farm machinery gave an
impetus to wheat raising, which became
the leading industry Of the northwest.
The first primitive machines were fol:
Elowed. by harvesters and self-binders
and improved threshing machines. The
4 cost Of raising wheat was lessened, and
the mills found available a swiftly in
creasing supply of grain at prices that
ena bled them to enter3.th world mar

Of The MasqueradeTs. After various
attempts 10 avoid the difficulty Of finding
two men Of similar appearance by never
permitting the two characters Chi'cots
and Loder to appear on the stage at the
same time, Mr.. George Alexander, who
will play the part Of JOHN, Lodsr. decided
that the strength Of the drama would be
lessened by this method. and the scene in
which the change Of personalities is ef-
fected will take place In view OF the au-

The play will be produced in about six
weeks. Meantime the publishers Of the
novel report that every few days they re-

Tho problem Of the race question is
solving itself, according to Prof. William
Benjamin Smith whose conclusions guarded
by a strong array Of statistics that make
them practically impregnable, are stated In
his new book, The Color Line The solu-
tion lies in the fact that the negro race
is gradually dying OF, its poorer stock
and its lack OF endurance making il a vic
tim and proving it incapable Of resisting
the influence Of modern civilized life. Just

Moved Shack and Owner.

Steele Ozone: A good story is told
by F. Mcintyre of shack moving in
cident that occurred In the northwest
part of the county, but he gave us
no names. 1t appears that there was
very presentable claim shack in a
certain neighborhood, or settlement,
and some parties, thinking it was one
of those cases where the filler on a
claim did not intend to make good
decided, in case the man did not show
UP, about the time they thought his
time was due to appear for a "hold
down." to appropriate the shack for
their own Use.
So one day recently, early in the
morning, they hove on the scene with
sufficient teams to pull the building
away. They did not stop to inquire
about anything nor look around the
premises, but raised the corners, made
fast the tackle and started the teams.
Everything went all right and there
was no "holler" from anywhere as the
mansion moved serenely over the rich

turf of Kidder county to it's destined
location.
Arrived at the spot, some four miles
distant, the men decided that the
building was in about the right place,
and started to unhitch, when to their
surprise the owner opened the door
and appeared on the scene He in.
formed them who he was and also
that he did not want to come so far
from his work on the claim to eat
and sleep. That the movers were sur.
prised goes without saying very
strongly. There was nothing to do,
and no use making any complaints,
SO they meekly turned the heads of
the horses and pulled the house back
to where they had so merrily hitched
to it.
What the men said as they returned
to their homes is not recorded, but
it is safe to say that the smile on
the face of the shack owner was a
wide one as he watched them depart.
He had been awakened when the cor.
ners were pried up and lay still to see
how far they would co.

ments for annual appropriations gen
orally are in the hands of the clerk
of the two appropriation committees
weeks before congress convenes and
the more important bills are blocked
out in readiness for the committees
when they meet. Right on the eve
of the converting of this session the
estimates are just coming in, and the
result will be to set congress back
several weeks in the matter of appro-
priations alone. If committees are
not appointed until after the holiday
recess, no matter of legislation can be
whipped into shape for early consid-
GRAFTON, and it will be we'll along in

This is to be a long session, of

indeed. 1t would be no occasion for
surprise if the beginning of next
August found congress still in ses-

Since Robert J. Wynne, former post.
master general, was appointed consul
general at London, he has had to-
spend good share of his time travel
ing back and forward across the
Atlantic. 1t was Mr.. Wynne, when,
he was first assistant postmaster gen
eral, who started the inquiry that led
to the revelation of astonishing postal
frauds, and he has been an important
witness for the government in the
| prosecutions which have resulted.
His trips across the Atlantic have
been to testify at the several trials.
This time it is William G.. Crawford
against whom he came to appear.
Mr.. Wynne, as is well known. is a.
tormer newspaper man, and was
washington correspondent of the
New York Press when MIR. Roosevelt
appointed him assistant postmaster
general. His career in the public SER
vice is one of which his friends are
proud and if he is as successful in
London as he was in Washington, it
is predicted still higher honors are
in store for him.

MOURNING CUSTOMS.
Origin OF the Widows Cap and Black
- -.-.~ Sleeve Bands.

~3104A VI SAC " Auo"'o O1R anu 0s4ISk
- -.-s1 Sleeve Bands.
The customs of mourning as prac-
tced in various parts Of the world
seem at first sight to have little rela-
ton with each other or with the in.
ward grief which they are supposed
to typify. Yet by the exercise Of a lit
tie patience many resemblances may
be discovered among them. The wild.
owls cap, for example, dates back to
the days Of ancient Egypt. Egyptian
men shaved the beard and head as q
token Of mourning. The women, in.
stead of cutting off the hair, concealed
It by close cap. The Romans, who
we're as race clean shaven, shaved
the head in mourning and wore a wig.
The black band on the sleeve as a
sign Of mourning comes to us from the
days Of chiyalry. The lady tied scarf
or napkin, as the handkerchief was
called, about the arm Of her knight.
II he was killed in battle she wore the
band In memory Of him.
Black has SO long been the color Of
grief in Anglo-Saxon countries that II
:-eems part Of the upside down civ
ilization Of the east that Japan and
China wear white. But no longer agL
than the time Of Elizabeth the unfor.
tunate Mary of Scotland wore white
ON the death Of Darnley. Even now
the hearse used for children Is white,
and In England the mourners at fu.
