Isn't it about time that some uni.
versity looking for distinction should
confer decree upon Johann Hoch.
He is leader in his line.
There seems to be considerable oppo-
sition to naming the magnificent new
music hall in this city ''The Auditori-
UNI" And it shouldn't be allowed to
die out. Every town of a thousand
people has its auditorium now. Give
us something new, even if it doesn't
sound as good.
Governor johnson has formally an
nounced that Miss Rosie Marie Schal
Ter of Hastings is to christen the new
battleship Minnesota, which will be
launched at Newport News on April s.
The lady to be thus honored is a
sophomore at the university and a
daughter of Senator Albert Schaller
OF Dakota county. She was born in
| Hastings.
! II the senate keeps on piling up
business without finishing some of it
there will be an over supply of that
article in the halls of the state legisla-
ture about adjournment time says the
| Faribault Journal. All of which is
true on the part of our contemporary.
1t will hardly he the cause for any
great amount of worriment, however
In all probability such result would
be for the best interests of the state.
| The Star and Times of Hudson
Wis, has been purchased by Messrs

| retireS from the Star and Times to
take up other work. His many friends
will regret his departure from the
journalistic field.

| No two compilers have made SINH
| lar lists of the millionaires of the
world. China, England, France, Rus
STA and the United States each claim
| to be the home of the richest man in
the whole world. The list compiled
by James Burnley, the English author,
is as follows: Alfred Belt, diamonds,
London, $5OO,OOO,OOO; ]. B. Robinson,
gold and diamonds. London. $4OO, O0O,-
900; ]. D. Rockefeller, oil, New York,
$3.50. 100000; w. w. Astor, land, Lon
don, $2OO,OOO.OOO; Prince Demidoff,
land, st. Petersburg, $2OO,OOO,OO0;
Andrew Carnegie, steel, New York,
$125, 100000, and w. X. Vanderbilt,
railroads, ew York, $1O0,0O000O. Some
twenty-five other names are mentioned
worth from the latter figure given
down to $25,OO0OOO, where Mr.. Burn
ley stops. 1t will be seen that he
places Americas John D. Rockefeller
third in the list, and gives first and
second places respectively to Alfred
Belt and ]. B. Robinson. There is but
little doubt that the arrangement
made by Mr.. Brunley is wrong. The
visible assets of Mr.. Rockefeller clear.
ly entities him to the primacy among
millionaries if the greatest fortune
outside of America is estimated al
only $5OO,OOO,OOo.
