No Beer Fests at Willmar.

That Willmar is holding it's repu-
tation for dryness number of la
boring men, who came thru this
city last Thursday, will be more
than willing to testify. They ar
rived here on last Thursdays morn
ing train from Sioux Falls, and,
being compelled to wait for con-
nections until evening, they decided
that a little High Life' would be
a fine thing to have. They tele-
phoned to a certain little village not
a thousand miles from here, and
made the proper arrangements and
at noon the much longed for wet
ness arrived. 1t was signed for
and one Of the party put it on his
shoulder and started for the woods
north of the railroad tracks, accom-
panied by a line Of fifteen or more
thirsty ones. The procession pro-
ceeded as far as the other side of
the trains, when our amiable
sheriff and doughty chief of police
stopped them and inquired what
this was all about. Explanations
followed, but Mr.. Bonde told them
that no beer party could or would
be allowed on any premises over
which he had jurisdiction and that
the only safe place for them would
be in their own chartered car.
Pleadings brot no results. The
sheriff was obdurate and at last our
visitors were obliged to HE to their
car, where the stuff was disposed

Lawyers as Will Makers.

In scrbbling his will on sheet of
rough foolscap the late Lord Davey
showed the lawyers traditional dis
taste for elaborate testaments. Lord
Mansfield found half sheet of note
paper ample for the disposal of all his
worldly possessions. Sir James Fitz-
James Stephens will was a model Of
brevity, for it began and ended in thir-
teen words, and dozen lines served
to dispose Of Lord Russell Of Killo-
wen's estate of nearly f15O,O0O The
late Lord Grimthorpe showed n fine
contempt for convention in scribbling
three of his fourteen codicils ON the
backs of an old letter, dinner invita-
ton and a circular respectively. Lord
st. Leonards put his last testament so
carefully away that the most diligent
search failed to discover it. Lord St..
Heller provided fees for his lawyers
by tearing sheet out Of his will, and
Fl. G. Richards, X. c., did his "cloth'
an equally good turn by leaving will
full Of interlineations, while Sergeant
Maynard deliberately left an ambigu-
ously worded testament in order that
certain legal questions that had puz-
lied him when living should be settled
when he was dead.-Westminste Ca

Prohibition.'''' 1t was perhaps the
most novel and inoffensive, and by
all odds the best advertising scheme
of the whole fair. The Band Boys,
in addition to wearing the small
cards in their hatbands, pinned
large 11x20 inch posters, lettered in
white on black cardboard, upon
their backs and marched down the
street telling all who followed that
"The Prohibition Party Stands for
the Home, Church and School and
Against Graft and Creed. - The
Prohibs had the most desirable To-
cation on the grounds and they got
their moneys worth at the fair.

New Ulm, in spite of the fact
that Mayor Silverson assured the
people of Minnesota that there would
be more drunkenness than ever un-
der Sunday prohibition, passed her
first "closed' Sunday without a
single arrest for drunkenness, not
withstanding the thousands of visit
ors pouring into the city from other
points on account Of the big Ger
man-American picnic.

Both candidates for the demo-
cratic nomination for governor of
Mississippi have pledged themselves
to favor statewide prohibition if
nominated. Mississippi will doubt
less follow Georgia's example if the
democrats win-and they always
win in Mississippi.

twenty-one nuisances, which shows
decrease of over two-thirds in the
number of cases last month. Inspector
Fithian spoke favorably of an isola-
ton hospital. better known as a mu-
nicipal hospital, where poor cases of
contagious diseases could be treated
free of charge and away from the
public.
PIacard System Suggested.
Commissioner Reynolds then sug
gested that rule, section 10, page SO,
be amended to read: ''The board
shall place placards on houses where
cases of contagious diseases are con-
tained.'' This rule now reads "the
board may" The inspector and COM
missioners' discussion on this subject
was lengthy. The inspector opposed
the placard system, and gave several
reasons why this method was unfav-
orable. Commissioner Reynolds up
held his view of the matter, and no
definite conclusion was arrived at.
Inspector Fithian again brought up
the fact that an isolation institution
is needed here, so the cases may be
such an institution there need be no
means taken to prevent the spread OF
| the disease.
The inspector brought out the fact
| that the new inspector would have to
be examined by the state board,
which President Main suggested be
done.

for it. The question of whether the
health board or the overseer of the
poor should vouch for the expenses
incurred in the use of anti-toxin for
the poor was discussed to some eX-
tent, No direct conclusion was ar
rived at, but it was suggested that
the board pay the expenses as the
material was used.
Inspector Fithian reported pro.
gress in remedying the State and
Smith street rubbish nuisance. The
nuisance at the old Second street
dumping grounds was discussed, and
it was stated that it will shortly be
remedied. Warrants were ordered

DR.. Thomson took for his subject
''The Trained Nurse" and graphical
ly described her duties and the pleas
ant and unpleasant parts she must
play in rendering aid to the sick and
wounded. DR.. Thomson said that the
old fashioned nurse was all right, but
that she lacked the education which
a trained nurse has, and which even
she could not obtain in lifetime out
side of hospital. He said that the
trained nurse has an advantage over
a nurse who is member of the fam
! lily, as the patient is more likely to
obey one who is stranger than one
of their kin.
DR.. Thomson also commended the
/ local hospital, and its system for
/ training nurses. "The demand for
! trained nurses is so great that the
/ demand cannot be supplied" he said.
1.-THE hospitals do noble work and
only a small part of what is yet to
come,' said DR.. Thomson in conclu-
sion.

DR.. w. E. Ramsay made short
address in presenting Miss Kilroe
with her diploma. He told of olden
