Inmred on Wrong Mnn.

There was trouble at the Auditor
ium Saturday night as the result of
ruman getting into the house un-
known to the management and start
ing a row.
Just as the concluding waltz was
being played and after the doorkeep-
er had left the door, one Jimmie
Wilson, a third-rate prize fighter and
a character about town, entered the
building and approaching w. d. Dun
bar, the floor manager, began to
abuse him and struck him, knocking
him to the floor. A man standing by
interfered just then and urged VIII
son to behave himself, whereupon
Wilson turned and struck the would
be peacemaker a blow. The latter
then went after Prize Fighter Wilson
in good style. The two men got into
the smoking room and the door was
closed. There they went at it in
earnest and Jimmie Wilson certainly
got all that was coming TO him for
when he got through with him he
was perfectly willing to behave him
self.
Wilson had been a principal in
three scraps during the evening and
came to the Auditorium to have an
other. As far as is known he made
no effort to raise another row after
he left the Auditorium. The crowd
at the Auditorium was of the opinion
that Jimmie deserved the beating
that was administered to him.
Such characters as Wilson are not
allowed at the Auditorium, and un-
der the watchful eye OF Manager Boy
er very few rough characters gain
admission, and as soon as possible
they are put out. Rowdyism and
ruffians are not tolerated. However
such affairs will occasionally happen
in the best regulated amusement
houses.
Wilson was fined IS and given a
ian sentence this morning in Justice
Byers' court.

Manitoba will Exhaust Soil.

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
The Manitoba farmer has not profited
by the experience of the wheat growers on
this side of the boundary. Like them. he
has proceeded on the theory that the virgin
SOIL which is heavy loan. could not be
exhausted. Heavy crops Of wheat have
been taken from it in continuous success
sion, the straw burned, and none Of the
chemical elements taken from the soil in
the form of crops returned to it in any
form. In the older sections of the prov
ince the inevitable result is already appar-
emit The soil has greatly deteriorated and
so has the quality of the product mo /
hard the grade raised in Manitoba and
which is in demand by American millers
for their export trade, is no longer pro-
duced In places where 1t was the rule and
the territory yielding it is steadily decreas-
ing in extent in spite of the opening up OF
new districts.

Frotn the Search Light.
Louisiana birthstone is now added to
Texas petroleum, Alabama iron, Carolina
cotton goods and southern cotton, rice and
sugar as commercial article in which
Dixie is price maker and important
source of supply. The sulphur mines OF
Louisiana produce pure birthstone In
great quantity, which can be sold in COM

and the market is ready to take Louisiana

which were sent to New York in July last.
The Siciiian interests were slow to believe
that their monopoly was threatened but
they are now, it is said, fully convinced.

taken this step for several reasons.
The Chinese government is anxious,
so far as possible, that both belligerents
be allowed to negotiate directly with
each other and is adverse to their being
forced into negotiations.
China's motive in addressing to Rus
sia and Japan such notification was to
remind them that she never acquiesced
in the alienation Of the province Of
Manchuria from the Chinese sovereign
ty and she expected as the ftst result
of the war to full restoration to Chinese
control of that province.
