The Bloodstone.

Almost every jewel has superstition
Of some sort attaching to it, and the
bloodstone is not wanting in this par
ticular. The story is told of it that at
the time of the crucifixion some drops
Of blood fell on a piece Of dark green
Jasper that lay at the foot of the cross.
The crimson crept through the struc-
ture of the stone, and this was the
parent Of this beautiful jewel. The
dark red spots and veins were sup,
posed to represent the blood of Christ,
and many wonderful properties were
attributed to the stone. 1t was
thought to preserve its wearer from
dangers, to bring good fortune and to
heal many diseases.

SPECULATED ON SIGNATURES
Co. Seat Fight Developed Strange
Conditions.
Jackson County Originates New
Ideas in Finance.
Senator Somerville Says Unique
Conditions Prevail.

That some men have the ability to
grasp all sorts of opportunities to
make money is not better illustrated
than in some of the conditions that are
apparently extant in the operations Of
the signers of petitions for and against
the removal of the county seat of
Jackson county from Jackson to Lake
field. This attempt has precipitated
one of the bitterest fights that has been
known ID. the matter of county seat re-
movals in the state.
The firm of Somerville & Olsen has
had charge of the legal side of the
matter for the people of Lakefeld in
their attempt to get a sufficient number
of signers on the petition necessary to
bring the matter to a vote in the
county.
It appears from what the senator
has to say, that there is considerable
of what is known in the politicalworld
as graft, going on in the county. He
cites one instance of where he has the
affidavit of one man who first signed
the petition of the Lakefeld people and
then was bought up by the other side
to have his name removed from the
list. He then signed the petition a
second time and repeated the operation
until he had secured SlO6 and key OF
beer. This he swears to, and this is
but one of many similar operations.
Some of the Jackson people have
been so bold as to charge the opposi-
ton with instigating the signers of the
petition to get high prices for their
signatures and the matter appears to
have become a sort of specializing
scheme beside which board of trade
or deal in options is small and un-
certain matter.
The board of county commissioners,
before which the examination of the
petition has to be conducted, is com
posed of five men three of whom are in
favor of removalit. In the examination
and rejection of the names on the petit
ton so as to eliminate, if possible a
sufficient number to prevent the mat
ter from being brought before the
voters, this fact has seemed to have
over ruled all ideas of justice and
through it the list was so redu ced that
it lacked the statutory number and
was thrown out.
The Lakefeld people are busy with
a petition which they call No. 2, and
they say that if this petition does not

SCHOOLS ARE CLOSING
Short Terms in Rural Districts End
Years Work.

Many of the country schools of this
county have closed for the summer
vacation and the children have re-
turned to assist in the work of the farm
BY the middle of June all of the
schools will have closed with posi-
BILE exception of one or two that have
longer terms than the others.
There is great deal of satisfaction
in the progress the country schools
have made in the last few years and
in the better and more efficient work
that is being done by the teachers,
though there is much room for inn
provement. Supt Cutting says that
there are still some districts whose
directors are of the oIinion that it
matters but little what sort of an edu-
cation teacher has or whether the
teacher is experienced or not, so long
as the children do not know more and
are not allowed to fight.
But these cases are rare and are
rapidly disappearing. There should
be certain pride among the rural
schools as to which Of them is the best
and which is able to draw the greatest
amount OF state money because of hav-
ing fully complied with the require
ments OF the state law. In this respect
the county is backward and the county
is the loser for it.
In the country districts the school
officers are apt to depend on their
Judgment about selecting teachers and
while many of them hire the teacher to
take charge of the school just before
the school term is out many of the Off
GERS let this matter go until the fall or
just before school begins and as a
consequence it is very difficult to Sc
cure first and second grade certificate
teachers and it is necessary to take
the conditional graded certificate
teachers. In fact many of the rural

CAR PAUL'S WIG.
IN 0mceF Tweaked 1t and Won q Bet
and Promotion.

IN Omcef Tweaked 1t ana Won q Bet
and Promotion.
Paul, the eccentric car of Russia
assassinated in 1901, was very particu-
lar as to his dress and considered tri-
ding matters as Of supreme impor-
lance. This popularity was once taken
advantage Of by an officer of the
guards. Major vaksel, to win bet.
The major. the widest Joker in the ar
my, wagered several hundred rubles
that he would tweak the tail Of the en-
peror's wig on parade. II
The very next day the emperor hap
pened to be present at an early parade
and, as destiny ruled it, took a posi-
ton for moment Immediately In front
Of the daring major. Breat hless with
excitement and terror, Vaksel's com
panions beheld that rash officers right
hand steal slowly from his side, rise
to the level of the cars neck and
give the wigs hanging tail a most de-
cided tweak.
In an instant the emperors face,
pale with fury, was turned upon YAK
sells countenance, which, however,
only reflected an expression Of child
like innocence, mingled with the most
! deferential establishment.
'Who dared to do that?" asked the
enraged car, his eyes giving flashing
evidence that his most dangerous mood
was upon him.
II did, your majesty" said Vaksel,
! who, however his heart may have f1ut-
tered, managed to preserve outwardly
an unrut1led calm, together with an eX-
preston of innocent surprise. "It was
crooked, your majesty" he added, in a
confidential undertone 81 straighten-
| ed it for fear the younger officers
should see''
Paurs countenance cleared at once.
He stared ixedly, however, at YAK
sells innocent looking face for some
seconds. Vaksel admitted afterward
that this was the trying moment, and
he had said to himself, eff 1 waver
I'm lostv' Then the car spoke, and
spoke so that all might hear.
II thank you, colonel" he said.
If ever step in rank was gained by
the purest effrontery it was so acquir-
ed on this occasion, and Vaksel left
the field not only promoted to a covet-
ed position in the guards, but richer by
many hundred rubles as the result Of
his wager

GRIND OF JUSTICE IS SLOW
Four Cases Disposed of Monday,
One Continued.
Chas. Rolloff Receivers Board Mo.
ney From Triton.
Few Cases of General Interest to
/ be Tried This Term.

Since the disposition of the Sperl
will case the business of the court has
been moving with more celebrity. -Four
cases were disposed of Monday. The
case OF John Norman against Dan
Williams was continued, the claim be-
ing made that Mr.. Norman was too i'll
to appear.
The case of J. r. Beggs against the
Citizens Bank OF this city was set as a
Jury case but when the facts we're
brought out it was found that there
was nothing for the jury to do in the
case and it was given to the Judge to
decide. It appears that J. r. Beggs
& Co. of St. Paul, shipped a car of
potatoes to this city for Stork Bros,
who refused to accept them, and man
was sent here to dispose of them as
best he could. This he did, the stock
being. bought up by two firms in the
city and the check for the amount en-
dorsed by the representative of the
commission company was cashed by
the Citizens Bank. The man who dis
posed OF the potatoes disappeared and
made no accounting to his firm for the
money and now the firm seeks to re-
cover from the bank the value of the
checks. AS Judge Weber is stock
holder in the bank Judge Geo. L..
Bum of ST. Paul was sent here to try
the case. He took the matter under
Amusement.
Chas. Rolloff was given $500 by the
jury in the case of Rolloff VS.. Triton.
1t seems in this case that the wife of
German Triton, jr. stayed at the home
OF her parents for twenty-six months
and during that time paid no board
| and her husband made no provision
for her and Mr.. Rolloff took the mat
ter into court with the above result.
The last case to be tried Monday
was a SANDER case in which Chas.
johnson attempted to collect from
Hans Ahlness. $1,000 for calling him
"rat trap thief" During the winter
there have been a number of musk rat
traps stolen from the marshes near
Hanska and it seems that some of the
people were Of the opinion that Mr..
johnson was mixed up in the deal,
hence the suit: The jury brought in a
verdict yesterday morning for the de-

The rapidity with which the cases
are being tried seems to indicate that
the term of court will close either this
afternoon or tomorrow, as all the
cases that are left are comparatively
short and the settlement of the Kuehn
will case removes the longest Of the
cases that are on the calendar. There
are no criminal cases to be tried.
Monday morning while Judge Bum
was presiding the ancient water pitch
er which has done service in the court
room for years, exploded, if it may
be said that a water pitcher can ex-
plode. There was sharp crack and
the vessel collapsed. Nobody was

BETTER QUALITY OF BUT TERI
Quality Will Determine Price Of
Cream.
Grading System to be Applied in
Dairy Sales.
State Dairy Department Seeks to
Better Conditions.

p. 4. Slater, state dairy and food
commissioner, has issued a circular
to producers and buyers of hand Sc
parator cream, framed by the depart
ment, and adopted by the central
creamery plants that buy shipped
cream. The circular says in part:
''This department desires to call the
attention of producers and buyers OF
cream in this state to the provisions OF
q law which makes it misdemeanor
to offer for sale or to sell impure, un-
wholesome or adulterated cream, and
also the manufacture of such cream
into any article of food.
Furthur than carrying out these pro-
visions of the law the department has
no authority to regulate conditions,
but it is our desire to aid in bringing
about conditions which will insure a
better quality of butter made from
hand separator cream.
We believe this can best be accom-.
plished by grading all cream and by
paving for it according to grade, thus
encouraging the production of cream
of good quality. Cream which cannot
be condemned as unwholesome may
still be of poor quality and from which
butter of high quality cannot be manu-
featured.
After consulting with my leading
creamery men the department wishes
to suggest the following grades cream
and urges all creameries to adopt this
plan.
Extra quality or premium cream
shall be sweet or slightly sour cream
of good quality testing Is or above il
butter fat.
Grade No. l shall be slightly sour
cream of good flavor, testing from e
to "a per cent butter fat. inclusive.
Grade No. 2 shall be cream that is
slightly old or off flavor in any test
| and which cannot be classed as impure
or unwholesome.
Rejected cream shall be cream that
is unwholesome or unlawful.
The above systems of grading con.
from to the law of the state of Mime
sofa, which provides that impure
adulterated or unwholesome cream
shall not be used in the manufacture Of
any food product.
All cream producers using hanC
separators should endeavor to produce
only extra quality or premium cream
| and thus secure for themselves the
highest price and also help the state Of
| Minnesota to maintain her present
reputation for the manufacture of high
grade butter.
The inspectors of this department
| will enforce the law to the letter anG
producers of cream which must be
placed in the rejected class will be
prosecuted to the full extent of the law
The same will apply to creamery pro.
| prietors or butter makers who manu-
fucture this grade of cream into butter.
