Exhibition.
THEY ALL SCORE WAY UP.
About $50 Entries for Poultry Show
While Plymouth Rocks Leads;
Fine Lot of Pets.
THEY ALL SCORE WAY UP.
From Thursdays Daily.

From Thursdays Daily.
The poultry show is attracting much
attention. There are about $50 birds
entered, in the various classes, and the
show is highly creditable. The white
Plymouth rock is the largest class, there
being about fifty entries in it. The
white Wyandottes are second in the
number of entries. 1t may be that
the handsome silver cup offered by
Proctor & Gamble of Cincinnati, Ohio,
| for the best white fowl exhibited has
had something to do with bringing out
such large exhibits of these birds.
The barred rocks class is not so large,
but is well up in quality. The buff rock
is small class, but exceptionally good.
The golden and silver Wyandotte
classes are well filled and of good quail
| ty. The buff Orpingtons are small
class, but of high quality, scoring up to
94E.
| While the Rhode Island reds are a
small class, they are OF the best quality
ever shown in Southern Minnesota. A
cock bird scored to 94H.
| The MEDITERRANEAN class is well rep
resented, the single comb white Leg
horns leading in point of numbers. The
single and rose comb brown and buff
Leghorn classes are well filled. Hou-
dams, white face black Spanish and light
and dark Brahmas are well represented.
The heaviest bird in the room is a light
brahma cock, whose weight is l2%
pounds. 1t is exhibited by Mrs. Ed.
McGrath of st. Peter.
| A liberal class of pit games is shown.
OF the Cornish-Indian games there is a
large class, the quality being exception
ally strong, hens scoring to 95A.
| Among the pet stock shown are the
bantams, guinea pigs, Belgian hares,
rabbits, parrots, ferrets. white rats and
Scotch collies. Ralph Whitney, the as
sistant superintendent, states that the
pet stock is one of the best shown in
several years.
Mammoth bronze turkeys are shown,
running up to thirtyseven pounds in
weight. There are also white turkeys,
white Pekin ducks, and Toulouse geese,
all holding prominent positions.
The work of George d. Holden of
| Owatonna, the Judge, was not completed
until today. He is one of the best in
the country. Yesterday two of the coops
got mixed and he judged one of the
birds twice, but the two reports showed
alike to nicely. Both blanks were fill
ed out identically alike.
| The attendance is not what it ought
to be- The show is well worth seeing.
and those who do not 90 will miss a
rare opportunity to see and compare the
finest samples of poultry of the differ
ent breeds. The show is oIen every day
and evening this week.

William Russell, state inspector of
apiaries, made his first annual report
yesterday to the governor. The office
was created by the last legislature and
the law did not 90 into effect until Aug.
l. He reports that he inspected 81

he found IL apiaries and 33l colonies
diseased and 2,035 colonies healthy. OF
the diseased colonies ii were destroyed,
20 cured and l47 re-examined.
season when the work was begun" the
report saws, ''the work was to a great
extend preparatory, as on account of the
robber bees, which carried from one hive
to another, the hives which had been ex-
posed to contagion and not shown signs
of disease could not be singled out. The
wards in which the disease is known to
be present and those that have been eX-
posed to infection are all marked for
treatment in 1906. The colonies destroy
ed were all in the last stage of brood
and no other treatment was possible
under the circumstances.
''Most of the owners gave all the as
sistance they could towards stamping
out the disease, but at one apiary of for
ty colonies, many in the last stages of
the disease, the owners refused to have
them treated or to give the names or adj
dresses of parties to whom the diseased
bees were being sold"

NARROWLY AVERTED
 WAS BAD FIRE Blaze in Tombstone Canon Yesterday Morning Put Out
 By Bucket Brigade

What promised to be very destruc- tive fire to residences in Upper Tomb stone canyon was narrowly ayerted yesterday morning when the neighbOrs and few members of the FireDepart- ment collected and eXtinguished a fire which had been started in a coal house belonging to George Roberts and occu. pied by Mr. Mallroy. The fire was caused by throwing ashes containing live coals against the building. Ehe fire alarm was turned in at 10:3o a. ul. yesterday, and the department started with the engines and hose reels. Be- fore it arrived ar the fire, however, a
 messenger announced that the fire had
 been extinguished. The damage is
 estimated at s25.
 Epeditious work on the part of neighbors is all that saved number
 of houses and buildings. Immediately
 above the coal shed stood the barn with straw scattered around it. Had
 this caught the barn would have been
 burned and other houses ignited, as
 the buildings there are jambed close together and all frame. Water sup ply is inadequate, the nearest fire plug being over 100 yards away Mr. Henkel, chief of the fire department,
 stated that a fire in that part could rot
 be fought without great difficulty, as there were no alleys or spaces between buildings that would permit the fire 1 men to get around among the build ings. Mr. Henkel intends to bring this matter to the attention of the prop
 erty owners there and have it rene died.

ARlzONANS' GOOD
 SHOWING Their Appearance Before Territories Committee
 Brought Out Much

Clerk Howe of the Board of Super visors has received from J. !. Riggs one cf the Anti-Joint Statehood forces now in Washington, copy of the pro ceedings held before the Committee oi Territories in the House, which gives the arguments presented by the va rious. members from Arizona before e that body. It is very interesting read ing and shows the animosity Of the committee.
 Several passages show that the Ari- zuna forces called members of the committee down and put them in bad light. One of the arguments used by Mir Riggs before the committee is a new one and contains facts that cannot be disputed. In an argument with Mir. Powers of Maine MT. Riggs made the following statement:-'Mr. Powers, you say that this matter in it's final analysis is matter of political expediency. You know that your six States up in the northeast corner of the United States Gndicated on the map have twelve Senators. We have four states and two territories in the Southwest corner of the United States, caIer-cornered across the map from the six New England States. with a greater population, with greater area than your New England States, repre- scented in the Senate by eight men
 Mr. Powers - What wour states do you refer to?
 Mir. Riggs| refer to Texas, Louist' ana, Arkansas, New Mexico, Arizona and California, as against your six up in the northeastern corner. Answer ing your question of political expedien- cy. we are represented with eight Sen ators; you have twelve. Now, you have less population, you have less wealth, you have less area. If you can answer that am with you; if you can answer that am sure this delega- ton will go home and say: Join us to New Mexico
 The other members of the forces presented able arguments, and the pamphlet from beginning to end is one of interest

and investigating mind, an earnest
seeker after knowledge, and above
all, possessed of wonderfully sympa-
thetic nature.
In 1s43 she married Isaac Pinkham,
. builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. They had
four children, three sons and q
daughter.
In those good old fashioned days ii
was common for mothers to make
their own home medicines from roots
and herbs, natures own remedies
calling in a physician only in specially
urgent cases. BY tradition and ex-
perience many of them gained won
derful knowledge of the curative prop
critics of the various roots and herbs.
Mrs. Pinkham took a great interest
in the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power over disease.
She maintained that just as nature SO
bountifully provides in the harvest
fields and orchards vegetable foods of
all kinds; 80, IL we but take the pains
to find them, in the roots and herbs
OF the field there are remedies ex-
pressly designed to cure the various
Ills and weaknesses of the body, and
It was her pleasure to search these out,
and prepare simple and effective medi.
cines for her own family and friends.
Chief of these was a rare combina.
lion of the choicest medicinal roots
and herbs found best adapted for the
cure of the ills and weaknesses pecu-
siar to the female sex, and Lydia f. Pink.
hams friends and neighbors learned
that her compound relieved and cured
and it became quite popular among
them.
All this so far was done freely, with
out money and without price, as a
labor of love.
But in 1873 the financial crisis struck
Lynn. It's length and severity were too
much for the large real estate interests
of the Pinkham family, as this class
of business suffered most from
fearful depression, so when the Centen-
NAL year dawned it found their prop
erty swept away. Some other source
of income had to be found.
At this point Lydia K. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound was made known
to the world.
The three sons and the daughter,
with their mother, combined forces to
