Mr.. George Hamlin has Won within
few years an undisputed place among
the first singers appearing before the
American public. To repeat. categori-
cally the number of successful appear
ances earned by this singer, is to re-
call almost every important oratorio
production, concert and musical fes-
tival offered in the United States dur
ing the past few years. Indeed Mr..
Hamlin's name has become a feature
upon the programs of most of the lead
ing organiza ions, including the Han
del & Haydn society of Boston, the
Worcester festival, the New York ora
torio society. Chicago Apollo club, Chi
cago orchestra, and the principal So
cieties of st. Paul. Minneapolis, Pitts
burg, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Milwau-
kee, Buffalo, Louisville, Nashville, At
lanta, etc.
The season Of 19O4-'O5 Mr.. Ha4nlin
spent in Germany and France, singing
there as well as in London with such
success as is seldom met with by an
American. He received the most erthu-
siastic praise from the critics abroad.
SO great was his success and so many
were the reengagements offered him
that~he returned to Europe at the be-
ginning of this season only to dupli-
cate and enhance his former triumphs.
Mr. Hamlin's musical career has ex-
tended over a period of Is years. The
first five years was given principally to
church singing, during which time he
was diligently preparing himself for
his coming entry into the field of pub
lie concert work.

The national following which he has
now gained is but the. sequel of study,
conscientious labor, and the careful
maturing of natural gifts.
Mr. Hamiin has a very large roper
teire including over so of the principal
oratorios and cantatas. He also has the
distinction of having presented the
first recitals in America of the songs
of Richard Strauss. whose works are

1t is too late to do much in Mime

ations coming in the West. Our
company will have mills there, and
l promise you now that we will cut
only one-half of the timber. And
we will cut that clean just as we are
doing in northern Minnesota today.
We will destroy all of the debris.
This will give the country ITS forest
preserves. We will follow out this
plan wherever we operate. The
greatest damage in the past was
caused by not cutting clean. The
lumbermen left all the debris and
this easily took fire Through the
efforts of President Roosevelt such a
strict system of protection was put
into effect that forest fires are
now practically a thing of the past.

THOMAS SHEVLIN BOOSTS
FORPRESIDENT ROOSEVELT
Declares His Prompt Action Has Saved Country From
Financial Disaster ..Approves His Method for Saving
Timber and Declares for Third Term.

A Chicago special telegram to the
Minneapolis Tribune, last Sunday,
contained the following interesting
interview with Thomas Shevlin,
president of the Crookston Lumber
company, and one of the most promi-
nent politicians in the state
Chicago, Oct. 27.-Thomas H.
Shevlln of Minneapolis gave several
Chicago business men something to
think about when they gathered in a
little conference at the Annex hotel
last week.
There is an inclination on the
part of many business men who
have been hard hit by the Wall
street panic to blame President
Roosevelt for all their troubles. Mr..
Shevlin says that this may be true,
and, if it is, it is something for which
the country should be grateful to
Roosevelt.
There is one thing that will
always stand out as monument to
Roosevelt; something by which
future generations will aways know
him. said Mr.. Shevlin. He has
the right idea of establishing forest
reserves, of saving the wood for the
people who are coming after us.
But for his firm attit u d e
in stepping in and not only
preventing the denudation of all the
forests of the country, but suggest
ing the way to perserve portions of
them, we would soon have cut all of
the timber.''
That sounds rather suspicious
coming from a lumberman who
seems to be cutting timber as fast
as he can," said one man.
Perhaps you are surprised" re-
torted Mr.. Shevlin, for I will admit
that l, with other lumbermen, fought
Mr.. Roosevelt's proposition for
years. Now am convinced that
he is right. l am not the only lum-
herman who feels that way, either,

N. F. WILSON GIVES HIS
VIEWS ON MINCEE PIE
Remembers the Kind Mother Used to
Make."..-HIs Way Of Knowing
ills October. d.

M. F. Wilson, the popular travel
ing man, is great admirer of a good
old-fashioned mince pie-the kind
his mother used to make"
Mr. Wilson (who is more famil-
iarly known as Bill" twas taken i'll
recently has been laid up for
repairs"at Minneapolis. While he has
been off duty, his mind has turned
to his favorite pie, and he writes
the Pioneer men as follows, from
Minneapolis:
my Dear Doc
Just as one day in early spring
you walked down the road and all
of sudden pranking breeze scam.
pered along and brought with it a
Whit of early blossoms, so did you
yesterday walk down street and
suddenly stop and smile at your
self. For some unseen spot there
came to you the teasing, tantaliz-
ing, spicy odor of hot mince pie.
There be many ways of knowing
when one season goes out and the
other comes in, but when the aroma
of hot mince pie gets tangled up
with the rare October atmosphere
then we know that fall is here and
winter is getting on its snowshoes.
Nobody knows who first made
mince pie, nor under what circum-
stances it was invented. It has
been claimed that it came to some
one in dream, but that will not
stand reasoning. It brings its own
dreams.
Whoever got up the first mince
pie was benefactor of humanity,
and you may bet all you like that he
did not concoct any measly little
old observation-disclosures affair
such as the restaurant waiter skids
across the counter at you. Some
people criticise mince pie because
they have never eaten the right kind.
Anybody who has tried to eat the
thing of pasteboard crust and hash
inside does not know what real
mince pie is.
Real mince pie is as beautiful
and as satisfying to the eyes and
to the senses as are the gorgeous red
and gold leaves upon the trees, as
the incense of the distant burning
dead leaves, as the pearly haze ol
the dawn and the flame of the sun
set in this season.
But when it is favored with
furniture polish and held in papiel
mache it is fraud and delusion
and whoever makes that kind of pic
ought to have to eat it or 60 to jail :
