SEEDING COMMENCED IN
WESTERN CANADA.
The Prospects for Large Acreage TO
Be Sown in Wheat.

st. Paul. April "a 1907 Word has
been received at the office of the
Canadian Government in st. Paul that
seeding has commenced az various
points throughout Manitoba. Saskatch
evan and Alberta.
The heavy snowfall during the past
winter has left the ground in splendid
shape for successful seeding opera
tions. The fine weather of the past
few days has taken much of the frost
out of the ground and during next
week there will scarcely be district
in which the seeder is not being oper-
ated. The most optimistic conditions
exist and in all districts the farmers
are busy getting things in shape.
There will be very large acreage
sown in spring wheat, oats and barley.
At many points throughout the three
provinces the newcomers are busy un-
loading their stock and effects. work
ing night and day in order to get on
their farms and become active agen-
cies in the effort TO make the year
1907 the banner year in grain produc-
ing in Western Canada As compared
with districts many hundred miles
further south than this, it will be 'seen
that Western Canada ranks amongst
the first I'm the line of seeding opera
tions for the present year. II is safe

the vegetables they will plant, will
give them ample food for themselves
and stock during the coming summer

ations are not confined to one district,
but are spread over country 900
miles long by 400 miles in width.

General Tears.

A few days ago the president gave
audience to a prominent westerner
who had come in the interest of par
don application. This man presented
his case eloquently. When he had
finished, the president presented the
other side. and in doing so showed
very conclusively that the pardon
should not be granted.
DO you not agree with me- he
asked his visitor after he had an
nounced his own conclusion.
Yes, Mr.. President, am bound to
say do, now that you have gone into
the case so fully" was the reply.

A "toodoo Dog"

Another victim of 'Rosenbaum, the
hoodoo dog of the levee,' was added
to-day, when VIII Clifford young
colored man, dropped dead suddenly
after the 'hoodoo dog had been fol-
lowing him around for sometime. Ac-
cording to the negroes on the water
front, the death of Clifford brings the
total number of Rosenbaum' victims
up to eight.
Clifford is said to have incurred the
enmity of the dog during the recent
flood. when he struck the animal with
an oar.

ideas and perverted notions he shakes
at the foundation your inner self and
forces you to not only look about you at
life, but to look within yourselves, search
your own souls and weigh the false and

"As an artist, as dramatist, his pur-
pose has unquestionably been to confront
selfishness and concet and falsehood with
themselves. His is the realists view,
that selfishness and conceit and falsehood
form that sin of hypocrisy on which
modern civilization is based.

RuskIn Art Club

"The American School of Wood En-
craving" was the subject of study by
the Ruskin Art club Wednesday, Mrs.
F. w. Snowden and Mrs. w. j. Saunders
leading the thought of the class.
Mrs. N. p. Conrey spoke Interestingly
of the influence on the art of Scribner's,
Harper's and the Century magazines,
followed by Mrs. R. F. Simoneau, who
also spoke of the work of Linton Cole
and Juengling. THE Society of American
Wood Engravers" is a subject that al
ways commands attention from the ladies
of the Ruskin Art club, and the topic
lost nothing of it's interest Wednesday
in the hands of Mrs. s. c. Hubbell, who
referred especially to John P. Davis and
Elbridge Kingsley and to the wood en-
cravings and letters sent the club by
these two men. Mrs. Snowden and Mrs.
Saunders closed the program with ref
erenee to the work of Gustave Kruell,
Thomas Johnson, w. B. Closson, Henry
Wolf, Frank French and others. Many
illustrations of the work of these artists
are owned by the club, and the remainder
of the morning was passed in their dis

CITY OFFICIALS INSPECT
SOUTH PARK LAND STRIP
Council and Park Commissioners Try
to Reach Solution Of Realty Tangle
Opposite Forty-ninth
Street

Members of the city council and the
park board yesterday afternoon visited
South park to see what adjustment could
be reached regarding the strip of ground
adjoining the park line and extending to
Forty-ninth street.
Four houses now stand on the strip,
while facing Forty-ninth street beyond
are three houses.
The sheds in the rear of the houses on
the strip back up against the fronts of
the Forty-ninth street houses, and the
clamor from the owners of the latter is
necessarily the loudest.
Years ago the city could have bought
the strip, which is 1850 feet across and
127 feet deep, alongside the park for a
few thousand dollars, but this sum will
not buy the property now.
AS a result of the inspection yesterday
it was developed that when Forty-ninth
street was laid out by private owners
the dedication was not perfected, hence
the city is under no legal or moral obli-
cation to buy the strip.
On the other hand, with house after
house going up alongside the park lands,
the attractiveness of the park would be
enhanced If those standing there now
could be moved and the line extend as
far as Forty-ninth street.

SAVES LAD FROM DEATH
Caught Between Elevator and Floor
Boys Foot Is Crushed Before
Ascending Car Is
Stopped

But for the agility and presence OF
mind of F. H. Smith, a painter, living
at 1880 East Twentieth street, and en-
ployed at the store of N. B. Blackstone
& Co. at 31S South Broadway, Stanley
Bech, a cash boy in the store, would
probably have received fatal injuries yes
terday.
The boy tried to run large freight
elevator from the basement to one of the
upper floors. Unfamiliar with the work
ing of the machine he became frightened
and in an effort to stop 1t caught his
left foot between the car and the fourth
floor.
AS the cries of the boy reached the
ears of Smith, working on one of the
lower floors, he made a dash for the
elevator and stopped the cage.
The boys foot was crushed. He was
taken to the receiving hospital and later
sent to his homo, 1920 South Vernon
street.
