POLAR BEAR IN BUTTER
That VIII Be One of the Features of
A1idwinter Exposition.

There is nothing too good for the
visitors at the Midwtner exposition, or
at least that is the way the manage
ment feels about it; and it is in that
spirit that there has been undertaken
the work of reproducing one of the
really great features of the big ST.
Louis fair. The credit for this stroke
of enterprise really belongs to Mr.. Il.
A. Borman, chief of division of dairy
and packing house products of the
Midwinter exposition, who spent much
time and effort in perfecting his
plans in the matter.
In the big Agricultural building at
St. Louis the largest building among
all of those giants Of architectural
and engineering skill, the most popu-
lar exhibit among the hundreds that
contributed to the absorbing interest
of the stately edif1ce, were the ex-
ampleS of butter sculptury Illus
trative in a large measure of incidents
connected with the dairy industry,
but the subject that was awarded the
gold medal was the exhibit of South
Dakota, which represented President
Roosevelt mounted on q charger, and
which as an example of industrial art,
was worthy of the attention that it
attracted. There were many subjects
depicted, some of them requiring in
their execution thousands of pounds
of butter.
The creamery industry of Kansas
in late years has grown to such pro-
portions as to put Kansas well to the
front as a butter making state, and
added to that, the fact that Topeka
has the largest butter making estab-
lishnent in the world, makes it pecu-
liarly appropriate that particular at
tention should be paid to that depart
ment of the Midwinter exposition.
Mr.. Borman, after an expenditure of
considerable time, finally enlisted the
interest and assistance of Prof. J. D.
Walters, professor of industrial art and
designing at the State Agricultural
college at Manhattan, and with the
result that there has been evolved an
exhibit of sculptured butter that will
prove of absorbing interest and one
of the centers of attraction The
statue that has been designed by Prof.
Walters represents a polar bear of
heroic size that has apparently just
made his appearance upon the scene,
has demolished an old fashioned
churn and is in the act of removing
from a refrigerator butter that has
been prepared by modern
scientific and sanitary methods
Prof. Walters was one of the artists
to whom the visitors at the st. Louis
fair were indebted for some of the
best examples of this new form of
art, and the Midwinter exposition is
indeed fortunate in having enlisted
his efforts.
This display will be in 4 specially
constructed plate glass case. provided
with refrigeration that will prevent
the butter melting.

MAGAW A HUMORIST
He Was Joking When He Talked of
a Libel Suit.

Charles A. Magaw, late police Judge
of the city of Topeka, is about to
establish a reputation as a humorist
He is a young man of a great deal
of energy and ability and when he
sets out to do any thing he usually
succeeds. Therefore there is good
reason to believe that he will prove a
wonder as a funny man. His intro
dUction into the field of humor was
an announcement in a Topeka Sunday
paper that he intended to sue the
State Journal for libel because of the
statement that he had led a mob on
Saturday morning. This may not
seem amusing but it is neverth eleSS.
In the first place no one suspected
that Judge MagaW had led a mob.
He is Of a meek, loWly and genial dis
position and has always Stunned tur-
mol and trouble and it therefore fol-
lows that he would not help to mob
any one and there Is good reason to
believe that the State Journal report
er who wrote the article in question
did not intend to even intimate that
the mob was led by him, for he is well
acquainted with the promising young
lawyer. As attorney for the poor
downtrOdden jointists Mr.. Magaw
made a few requests of the police, but
they were made in a decorous and re-
spectful manner and hastily complied
with. Judge MagaW's persuasion is
so insinuating and potent that even
Chief Stahl with all his vaunted
bravery cannot withstand it. 1t is
much more effective than any mob.
Judge Magaw, the humorist today
gave out the following explanation of
his entrance into the ranks of the fol-
lowers of Mark Twain: IF there was
any attack on the police by mob or
any thing else it must have occurred
before arrived on the scene. and if
there was an attack before I came it
will not be necessary for me to state
that I did not know of it, or I would
have been too busy to visit the seat
of action. When there is a mob I al
ways pursue the tactics adopted by
the leaders of the Nation crusade a
year or so ago and stay at home. You
all remember the gallant leader of
the Home Defenders, DR.. Mcfarland

BROWNS AFTER DINEEN. A..
Hedges Willing to Pay $4,000 for
1'Big Bits" Release.

St. Louis, Jan. president Hedges
of the Browns is hot on the trail of
Pitcher Dineen of Boston. Hedges de-
$4,000 for Irish Bill' if it was neces-
sary. He said Dineen looks to him to
be the best pitcher in the American
league and he would willingly pay the
price could he but get him. He de-
clares that with Dineen doing the
heavy stunts for the Browns next sea-
son they would be sure pennant win
ners.
Advices from Boston. however, state
that in all probability Dineen will play
with the Beaneaters in '95 and that no
price whatever would be considered.

Playing Safe

The great Captain of Finance pulled
the last wire and finished up on the
greatest business deal in his whole ca
reer. Calling in his private secretary
he asked:
Have we got all the foodstuffs un-
der control?"
Yes, sir; the cries OF the people
warrant the assumption that they are
starved into submission to our de-
mands."
How about the coal supply?'
"All in our hands. The miners have
refused to work on starvation wages
and the supply mined under pressure
is good. We can get 200 per cent more
profit per ton now that the plan has
worked out, and the people are already
shivering and getting ready to submit
to our demands"
And how about oil?'
Everything lovely. We've knocked
out every competitor but one, and if
he doesn't submit in twenty -four hours
his plant will be like that one that so
mysteriously blew up few years ago."
.'Tis WELL, murmured the great Cap
tain of Finance. IF you are satisfied
that everything is all right you may
bring in those checks you made out

will sign them before / so to lunch.''

Properly Labeled
The Modern PhiIanthropist

He put peas in the pepper,
And mixed coffee up with beans;
He bleached things out with acid;
Colored things with aniiines.
He poisoned scores of babies
With adulterated food,
Then gave millions to the heathen-
and people called him good.
He cornered all the breadstuff
That 'twere possible to seize;
Then got his grip on coal mines
And said, Pay up or freeze
And thousands froze and hungered-
1t worried not his mind
He bought a university
And people called him kind,
He bought some legislatures,
Corrupted bar and bench.
in wrong and greed and privilege
His forces did entrench.
He robbed and squeezed and plmdered
Nor needed human cries.
He built a college building
And people called him wise.
He paved his way to fortune
With bleaching bones of toll.
The needs of wives and babies
He used to wreak his SPOIL
His conscience never hurt him;
Twas grown too dumb to call.
He gave vast sums to churches
And thought that squared it all.
Thousands to schools and churches
They're built on dead mems bones.
Thousands to public buildings
There's blood stains on their stones.
And thoughtless may applaud him
And cheer him on his way;
But blood and tears will mock him
On Gods great judgment day.
Blood and tears and heartaches;
Anguish and grief and want
The faces of starving children,
Haggard and pinched and gaunt
Wrecks of human endeavor-
All this to achieve a goal.
What profits man to gain it
And lose his immortal soul?
