FOUR DIE BY GAS FUMES
Woman and Three Children Asphyx-
lated in New York Tene-
ment House.

New York, April 7.-Thre children
and an aged woman were killed and
half a score of tenants in tenement
house here were made unconscious
Thursday by gas escaping from stove.
The dead are: Mary Rogers, aged
IS; Kate Clark, aged 70; Helen Clark
aged ten; Elizabeth Clark, aged seven.
The children slept in front room of
their home with Mrs. Rogers, who was
in the employ of their father. Samuel
Clark, janitor of the house. In a rear
room slept Mr.. and Mrs. Clark and
small son. When Clark arose at five
q. m. Thursday he detected strong
odor Of gas. He entered the children's
room and was almost overcome. Max
ing his way back to his own room, he
discovered that his wife and son were
stupef1ed. He then called for help: The
gas had made its way through the build
ing and persons in many other apart
ments were either stupefied or already
unconscious. A policeman who heard
Clark's cries broke into the room where
the children and old woman were and
raised a window. He then discovered
that all were dead. An examination of
the gas stove showed that the pipe had
broken during the night. It is supposed
that it broke from the force of the gas.
Physicians were called to treat the per-
sons in the house.

MINNESO NEWS.
Manufactur,es at the Fair.

One of the important features of the
state fair of 1905 will be the depart
ment of Minnesota Manufactures This
year the exhibit will be broadened in
order that all Minnesota manufacturers
may take space and exhibit their prod
ucts. although preference will be given
for ''live exhibits;;' that is, exhibits
showing process of manufacturer either
of the entire article or Of some part OF
the goods exhibited.
This decision is the result of recent
conference between William f. Lee,
superintendent of the manufactures
building, and committee OF the
Northwestern Manufacturers associa-
tion.
The association will cooperate with
Mr.. Lee in bringing out good show,
and it is expected that the building
will be well filled with interesting and
instructive exhibits. No charge is
made either for space or power, and
each exhib itor will be furnished with
free admission to the fair grounds for
himself and the person in charge OF
the exhibit. At night the building
will be we'll lighted, and it is expected
that no less than 25O,ooo people will
visit it during fair week. This will
offer an exceptional opportunity to
manufacturers to bring their goods to
the attention of the people of the
N0rfhwest

A New Industry.

A business comparatively new to
northern Minnesota is the getting out
of ships timber for the building OF
ocean vessels at Atlantic points. The
industry started but few years age
in this state and is increasing with
each year, because timber of the pro-
per sort is lacking in the states to the
east. E. C. Edgerly, representing a
shipbuilding firm at Auburn, Maine,
says:
''We do not bother with the mast
and regular long construction timber,
but devote our attention to getting out
corner braces and for this purpose 1t
is necessary to use the roots OF trees,
the main trunk, aside from foot OF
two at the butt, not being called into
use at all. Tamarack is best suited for
the purpose, and as the stumps OF trees
are as suitab bic as the trees themselves,
provided the roots are intact, there is
an almost unlimited field here in Min
pesota for us to work in. All we have
to do is to follow in the tracks of the
tie cutter and use what they leave.
The stump, or portion of it; is taken
from the ground, and the crooked
piece is then hucd into shape. later be-
ing hauled TO q railroad and shipped to
Auburn, Maine, where it goes through
a planning mill and is made ready for
the market"

FILLING THE WAR CHEST.
How q spanish-American Revolution
Was Financed with Bad
Money. ~ t&:

"The ways Of the South American re-
publics are sure funny" exclaimed an
old globe-trotter one day, glancing up
from copy of the Washington Star
which contained the advices from New
York setting forth the efforts Of certain
Spanish-American gentlemen to get the
United States to buy stock ina revolu-
tionary movement in Venezuela.
Those people are plumb crazy on the
subject of revolutions. They seem to
think they can repair all sorts of dam
aged fortunes through the medium of an
uprising, and maybe they don't work at
it. And that reminds me of revolution
l once had the pleasure of being intro
duced to, which, though it didn't revo-
lutte so as you could see it very plainly,
still, was started on the best possible
basis. The men in charge of this affair
were aiming to get control at the treas
ury and territory of one of the Central
American states, and they went about it
in systematic way. Now there is but
one thing at the bottom of any of those
sudden transferals of power in the sister
republics-money. Either one or the
other side has too much, and the losing
side promptly starts out to get what it
believes is coming to it. That Is what
was done this time, but on a basis far
more sensible than usual. The insur-
gent element did not have money
enough to start business, and after much
Topping around to find ways and means
hit upon an ingenious scheme that came
very near wrecking the home govern
ment before a shot was fired. The rev.
dictionary party needed money and
started out to make it, literally. The
distinguished sons of the state who had
been chosen to lead the movement es-
tablished an Office in New York and be-
gan the manufacture of spurious coin.
The money was stamped with the trim
mings put on coins by the regular gov
eminent, and thousands of dollars
worth of the counterfeits were tloated
before the proper authorities got next to
the source of supply. BY that time the
credit of the existing government was
almost wrecked, so much of the phOney
money had been foated. The plant be-
ing in the United States, the United
States secret service officers were called
upon to ferret it out, and they lost no
time in locating it and bringing to JUS
tice the principal offenders. Nothing
much was done to the revolutiOnists.
though the breaking up of their counter
feiting plant nipped the revolution In
the bud, but the home government never
has established it's credit on as firm
basis as it had before the counterfeits
were made"

Luxuries in Alaska.

A side light upon the mode Of living
in Alaska is given by stating the fact
that in Seattle recently $500 cases of
canned cream, Is freight car loads, were
ordered by one Seattle firm from q
single cannery for shipment to Alaska.
This cream is really milk condensed to
about half its volume, and it is very
popular in Alaska. The Alaskans drink
it as they eat bacon. In Juneau the
cold, or so-called "shut-in" months,
are enlivened with club affairs, dances
and social functions, at which the men
are required to wear dress suits. There
are carpets Oh the floor of the Alaskan
log huts, and the more pretentlous
houses have almost all American lux
uries.- Birmingham Press.

FINE PRIVATE HOSPITALS.
Many in New York Owned by Private
Physicians and Laymen Are
Doing Well.

| Although Manhattan and The Bron1
have between Is and 80 public hospitals
and dispensaries, all giving pay patients
skilled attention and fit accommoda-
| lions at relatively moderate figures, pri-
| vate hospitals flourish nightly. The
| most successful are excellent business
undertakings, and the profits of few
are very large, says the New York Sun.
A good many surgeons maintain pri-
vate hospitals of their own, but some are
owned and managed by laymen. Most of
scale than the public hospitals, but there
are some that have room at pinch for
SO or go patients.
The wealthy often prefer private to
public hospital, as being smaller and
less frequented. Some private hospt-
tails occupy houses specially built for the
purpose and are almost ideally equipped
for their needs. The kitchen is an ex-
tremely important appointment, and a
skilled hospital cook is sure Of work at
good wages.
The private hospitals of New York
now do much of the serious surgical
work Of the country. Winter Is the
crowded time of the hospitals that make
a specially of surgery, for no patient
who can safely postpone an. operation
submits to it in summer time.
One reason why private hospitals now
flourish so greatly is the growing disin-
clination of surgeons to perform opera
tions of any magnitude at the homes of
patients. Anyone who has seen the
preparations necessary for surgical OPP
erations in the home is usually willing
to take the advice Of the surgeon and go
to hospital. A curious provision in
some very elaborate private dwellings Is
a hospital room.
A good many physicians feel that the
best place for an infant first to open its
eyes upon the world Is quiet, we'll ap-
pointed private hospital, and some very
modern women adopt this plan.
Domestic nursing is at a low dis
count with the doctors, and the use Of
the private hospital upon all sorts OF
occasions is q growing practice. The
chances of recovery from any grave ILL
ness or operation are so much multi
piled in we'll conducted hospital that
patients who are able to pay for hos
pital privileges are easily induced to
do so.

To Raise Lake Level.

The 1tasca state park commission
composed of the governor and the at
torney general, had conference with
Mr.. Bullard, superintendent of the
park. A number of the property
owners on the lake had asked to have
the level of the lake raised so that
they could float their logs Mr.. Bull
lard stated that the lake is now con"
siderably below its normal level and to
raise it eighteen inches would do no
harm to the state reservation. There
is a dam below the lake and the level
can thus easily be raised. The appli-
cation was granted.
