AT The mercy
OF The WIND.
Count zeppelin's Airship il
Perilous Journey.
FLIGHT OF ELEVEN HOURS

Stormy Weather Prevents a Landing
and the Failure Of Motor Makes
It Impossible to Drive the Machine
Against the Wind-Drifts AimIessIy
About Until Conditions Permit q
Landing.
Dingolfng, Germany, April 2.-The
Zeppelin airship landed safely near
here after having been eleven hours
In the air.
Part of this time the circumstances
Of the journey were perilous. The
rear motor refused to work and the
forward motor alone could not de.
velop sufficient strength to drive the
airship against the wind.
Several anxious hours were spent
by the aeronauts before an opportu-
nifty offered to make safe landing.
The airship left Friedrichshafen
early in the morning and five hours
later appeared in the air over the out.
skirts of Munich. A distance of III
miles was covered in five hours. The
count left Friedrichshafen with the
intention of trying to sail from there
to Munich and back. It was his in.
tention to land at Munich in the pres.
ence of the prince regent and the en-.
tire garrison of Munich, but owing to
squally and increasing wind the
maneuver was impossible. The at
tempt was made over the parade
grounds outside the city, but as soon
as 1t was seen to be impossible the
ship was lifted again into the air.
The count then tried to return to
Munich, but by this time the wind
was so strong that he could make no
Roadway against it. When the seri-
BUSINESS of the situation was realized
the troops were ordered out to follow
the airship and be prepared to render
any assistance possible.
The count endeavored to overcome
the resistance of the wind by rising
to greater altitude, but this maneu-
YER apparently was not successful,
for the balloon was driven rapidly
from the sight of the people Of Munich
IN q northeasterly direction. A few
hours later it landed near this city.

AFFECTS SIX THOUSAND men
Jones & Laughlin Steel Company Cuts
- Wages.

Pittsburg. April 2.-The wage read
5ustment announced by the Jones &
Laughlin Steel company, limited, the
largest Independent manufacturers in
the country, has gone into effect. Vari-
GUS reports that the reduction amount
cd to 10 per cent and would affect
$4,000 men were investigated. Accord
Ing to w. L. Jones, general manager
Of the company, the reports are not
correct.
"The readjustment results on &C.
count of the depression in business,
due to the fear of reduction in the
tariff" said Mr.. Jones. 1T has be-
come necessary to cut down expenses
Ii every direction. The cut is not a
horizontal one. Whether it would
average 10 per cent ia hard to say.
However, about 5000 men are at
fected."

of their large exhibits of copies of
the worlds famous works of art in
the Bemidji High School on Friday

both ancient an modern and have a
wide reputation for exhibiting only

TURNER ART EXHIBIT
is AT CENTRAL SCHOOL
Beautiful Pictures on Exhibition.
pills. Drawing Work Being Displayed.
Entertainment Tonight.

The Horace K. Turner Art Ex-
hibit, comprising collection of over
200 copies of famous paintings, is.
being given today and tomorrow
in the Central school building.
The pictures are beautiful and are
worth going a long distance to see.
The collection is certainly one of
the best ever displayed by a travel
ing company and is composed of
half-tones, photographs and hand
painted photographers. There is
not a great artist in ancient, medic
val or modern times whose works
are not represented in this excellent
assortment.
Another, and by no means small,
feature of the exhibition at the
Central school is the display by Miss
Donaldson of the work in drawing
of all of the pupils in the grades.
Some of the pupils certainly display
talent and imagination in their
sketches.
Those who have charge of the ex-
hibit are selling small catalogues, at
ten cents each, containing small re-.
productions of the 200 pictures and
a short biographical sketch of the
life of each of the famous artists.
The Turner company is very liber-
al in their business agreements
with the school. All of the money
taken in by the sale of tickets,
twenty-five per cent of the proceeds
of the sale of catalogues and twenty
five percent of the receipts of out
side orders is given to the school
for the purpose of buying pictures,
the only restriction being that the
pictures shall be purchased from
this company.

ANT|-TRADING
;. STAMP Bill
Passes the House with Two
Votes Against It.
NOT ABSOLUTELY PROHIBITED

! Measure Requires the Stamps to Have
Their Value Printed on Their Face.
Senate Passes the Putnam Bill Ex-
| tending Aid to County High Schools,
Graded, Semi-Graded and CONSOLE
| dated Schools That Teach AgrieuI-
| ture.
st. Paul, April 1.-The anti-trading
stamp bill, already passed in the SEN
! ate, passed the house by vote of los
to 2. The bill will go into effect as
soon as it is signed by the governor.
This will be done within a couple of
days.
! The bill does not absolutely prohibit
giving trading stamps, but requires
the stamps to have their value printed
on their face, and makes unlawful the
present method of compelling the wo-
| men to lick a whole book full OF
stamps before they get any presents.
The bill had to be drawn that way to
make it constitutional, the supporters
of the measure said, but they claim
that it will put the concerns who have
been drawing millions from the state
under this scheme out of business any
way.
The supporters of the bill said that
! the stamp concerns hold up the mer-
chants for big sums, several times as
much as the value of the presents,
+, which they give the public.
! After the greatest amount of jockey
ing on a bill this session the senate
after a long debate passed the Putnam
BILL extending aid to county high
school, graded, semi-graded and con-
solidated schools, which teach agricul-
ture and domestic science. The bill
carries an appropriation of $4,000 for
the next two years, enough for ten
schools each year. No school is
to get more than $4,000, and the state
is to pay two thirds of the cost of in
stalling and operating the agricul-
tural department.
Must Vet Pass Finance Committee.
The bill must yet pass the finance
committee, but the Overwhelming ma
jority in the senate indicates that it
will be favorably acted upon by the
committee
The passage of this measure COM
mits the senate to county scheme Of
agricultural education. One school in
each county is to be equipped, to-
gether with a fve-acre tract for the
cultivation of farm products.
After adopting a motion to adjourn
this evening until Monday morning
the senate accepted the invitation of
the Duluth Commercial club and other
bodies to visit the iron range before
taking action on the tonnage tax. The
acceptance of the invitation was pre-
coded by the killing of resolution to
go at the expense of the state.

A Denial from Hiub authority

From National Food Magazine, -
Chicago: DR.. II. w. Wiley, chief
chemist of the agricultural department
has demanded of the Calumet Baking
Powder company of Chicago, that 1t
cease the publication of alleged certi-
ticates or statements that he had en-
dorsed the Calumet baking powder, Or
reported in favor of its purity, whole
someness or superiority Such state
ments, he says, are false.
DIR. Wiley never served upon com.
mittee of wards, as alleged, nor signed
such report of certificate. nor did ne
ever indorse the Calumet baking pow
der in any way. On the contrary, DR.
Wiley testified before a congressional
committee relative to alum in food as
follows: AS | have said repeatedly
do not use it in my own home, and
would not use alum in bread if knew
it. Alum is Injurious
1t seems that DR.. Wiley's demand
that the Calumet company should
cease these publications, which are
he says. against the TRUTH was not
complied with, although he says he has
done all he could Ito stop the base
and inexcusable use of his name"
The public will share in DR.. Wiley's
| Indignation that his name and official
position should be fraudulently used tt
aid in foisting upon consumers a food
| compound made from ingredient:
| which the doctor has publicly declared
| TO be injurious.
