NEW ELEVATOR COMPANIES
Big Crops Cause Organization of Ele
vator Companies Among Farmers.

The present prospect for big crops
has caused unprecedented activity
among the farmers Of the northwest in
organizing independent elevator com
panies and building Of independent
houses. The building Of new lines OF
railroad in northern Minnesota and
North Dakota contributes largely to the
same end.
For some time it was problem for
the grain commission houses to keep
informed as to these new firms and new
houses promptly enough to get their
business, but since Mr.. Pollock has
brought his clipping bureau to SO high
state Of efficiency the problem has
been solved. A subscription to his bu
reau (Sykes Block brings all this news
to their desks every day.
What is said concerning the grair
commission houses is equally true il
regard to the fruit and produce com
mission houses. Thru Mr.. Pollock +
service they are kept in constant touch
with new shippers turnout the north
west. If there is a commission firm

cipality with 10000 books. He has
since largely added to these gifts, and
it was largely thru his generosity, and
that of Mrs. White, whose death oc-
Cured a short time ago, that the city
was enabled to build and equip its
handsome new a0y library building at a
cost of $50, 900 a year ago.
Mr.. White is an Episcopalian, but
his creed is universal, and he has as.
sisted in the establishment Of every
'church in the city. He was instru-
mental, too, in founding St. Luke s
hospital, while he has literally do

sense, was in it's infancy, is full of

years.. Mr.. Whiteeeis, strong and sturdy

UNDERGRADUATE
WORK AT DULUTH.
BASKETS DISTRIBUTED TO THE
POOR OF THAT CITY.
Enormous Order for Groceries Placed
by Cooper with Retail Grocer Of the
City at the Head Of the Lakes
Wagons Loaded with Substantial
Limo Sent to All Parts of City.

The man who is about to visit Min
neapolis to introduce the preparations
that have made him an immense for
tune in almost the winking of an eve,
must be a very unique character, judg-
ing from the amount Of newspaper no
toriety given him in cities he has re-
Gently visited.
In almost every instance he is spoken
of as the great Cooper, and many col
umns devoted to his work and original
ideas along charitable lines.
In Duluth, where Cooper spent three
weeks recently an account of one of his
eccentric undertakings is as follows:
''Through charitable institution of
this city Mr.. Cooper has secured a
list Of addresses Of families who are
in destitute circumstances. He sent
this list to M. NJ Gasser & Co., the
| well-known grocers, with instructions
to distribute a basket containing a
most substantial line of groceries at
| each of the addresses.
The M. M. Gasser & Co.'s wagons
have been busy during the past two
days executing this enormous order
and each wagon, as it leaves the store
| is piled with these baskets, each going
to an address where it will be received
| like the visitation of kind Provi
| dence.
rms is CHARITY OF the right sort, and
although Mr.. Cooper is regarded as &C.
centric, it would be difficult to figure
out a better way to accomplish a great
good than has been employed by this
unusual young man. :
In just what manner he will next
follow out his unique theory of shar
ing his profits with the less fortunate
is not yet known, but the enormous
sale his preparations are now enjoying
in Duluth would indicate that he must
devise still other meth dds of getting
rid OF some of his rapidly accumulat
ing surplus.' ..s-~ III. =
Judging from these and similar &C
counts, this visitor will be an interest
ing study for those who enjoy the me1
with theories, who actually practic,
them in their business. If large banl
account is an indication, this one o:
Cooper's is a success.

Louisville, KY, Aug. 9.-Some Of the

Tuesday evening. Miss Smith was alb
sent at the time. Mrs. Smith and her
grandson, Jay. were eating supper in
the dining room. A gas light was
burning in the parlor, and there is a
room be ween the two rooms mentioned.
A gust of wind blew the front door
open, and curtain was blown over the
gas light, which was near a double door.
The curtain ignited and was totally de
stroyed, as were the portieres; also "A rug
in The doorway. A panel was burned
out of the door and big hole was
burned in the carpet. There being a
room between the parlor and the dining
room, the fire was not discovered by
Mrs, Smith and Jaw for some time. By
hard work, the fire was extinguished
1t was certainly ''close shave"

five years Old concluded that he wanted
to change homes, the other day, so he

gave them to MIN, and he bade her good
bye. saving: Nov, Mamma, amt go

because | just like those other folks, y
Then he trudged away, with his little
bundle under his arm.
At noon, the boys father was going
home to dinner, and seeing the child sit
ting on neighbours fence, said: Come
on; let's 60 to dinner,
"No," said the child, 81 amt living

PARDON" said the father, and he went
on home, leaving the boy on the fence.
But when evening came. and it began
to get dark, and the remaining members
of the family were seated around the
supper table, the dining room door sud
denly opened, and little boy with
bundle under his arm slipped in as noise
lcsslv as possible, The father looked up,
and seeing the chill /, said: Get out! you
are not living with US now" The little
fellow opened his mouth and made two
or three efforts to speak, and finally
said: "But Pm going to live with you

Then the mother spoke, and said:
''Why did you come back?" well, said
he little fellow, II got to thinking. and
| just thought how bad you'd feel. and
how you'd cry. and just came back"
And then the child ate hearty sup

he slept sweetly in Mammals bed" He
says he doesn't intend to go away from
home any more.
