tionary Spirit.
Madrid, via Hendaye, France, Oct.
19.-More fuel was added to the rap
idly growing fame of disaffection
throughout Spain by the announce
ment that the cabinet has had intro
duced in the cortes a bill providing
for the further extension of the con-
scription by forcing conscripts who
have already bought their exemption
from service for $500 to pay an addi-
tional 500 or serve, despite their
original purchase. If the bill is passed
thousands of peasant families, pow
erty stricken by their efforts to raise
the 5000 to keep father or son at
home, will find their sacrifice unavail-
ing. The measure strikes directly at
the poorer classes and has done more
to cause revolutionary feeling than the
Ferrer execution. The first test of
the Liberals and Conservatives is ex-
pected to come on the eve of the pros
ecution of Senator Ortega, who is
charged with completely in the Par

Tom Godfrey Pantela; Fine CHAR.

The Tom Godfrey Pantela is the
new cigar which the Bemidji Cigar
company is now putting on the mar
ket. This cigar is large collection
of contentment and pleasant dreams
for the smoker, judging from the
peaceful expression that has covered
the countenances of our senior bust
ness manager and our solicitor, who
have been smoking some of these
newest productions of J. Fleckenstein,
the artistic cigarmaker for the Be-
midi Cigar company. While ye
local scribe quit the use of the
weed" some five years ago, yet we
are almost tempted to start in again,
so fragrant is the aroma which is
waited across the room from the
desk of the gentleman who signs the
checks on Saturdays.

NEVER MET A GOOD MAN
Jeffries Discusses Johnson's Victory
Over ketchel.

Queenstown, Oct. 19.-When James
J. Jeffries, the American heavyweight
pugilist, who is a passenger on the
steamer Lusitania bound for New
York after period of training in a
suburb of Paris, heard of Jack John
sons victory over Stanley Ketchel at
San Francisco he said that this in
nowise would affect his plans. Ketchel.
he added, was only a middleweight
and not by any means the best of the
middleweights. ....
"Ketchel," continued Jeffries, "is
trying to feed himself up to make the
heavyweight class, but it will only
weaken him. Johnson is not much of
fighter and never met good man.
His fight with Burns was no test.
Burns is a newspaper fighter.
Il can only hope" Jeffries went on,
that Johnson will cover my money.
I would not fight him if did not
think I could beat him"

dispensing the gathering just at dusk
by driving it into the side streets.
There was no violence.

AIIGHTED STREET
 AS A BUSINESS ASSET

That good street lighting, or even spec tacularly brilliant illumination, generally nays a city in dollars and cents, is assert cd by writer in The Il .uminating Enei neer. (Ncw York, Junel Generally speak ing he says the value of property on business street is proportional to the mum Der of people who make Cse of it as thorouchfare. Thus:
 "A corner lot on Broadway is worth more than lot in the lat 'St subdivision on Long Island. simply and solely because n greater number of F""i pass tn" Broadway corner during th" day. lt not infrequently happens that "pposites sides of street on the same block have con siderably different values, due to the same cause Anything which adds to the traffic of a given street must. therefore, add to the value of the abutting property. Whil" conditions of accessibility to necessary utilities such as railway stations, hotels. banks. public buildings, etc, have doubt less a prcponderating influence it is equally true that no subsidiary condition has such vital effect as the lighting Cincinnati has a long open square in the center of it's business section which nat urally affords a prominent location for business. It happens that one side of the square has been brilliantly lighted up. mostly by private enterprise As result nlne-tenths of the pedestrians in the even ing take that side of the square. with the result that it is far more valuable as a business location than the opposite side. The merchants on one of Ncwark's main business streets saw that the bulk of traffic failed to pass them in the naufai course of business; they installed bril- liant system of street lighting. and forth with their street became the center of at traction; and similar instances can be sighted in numerou cities. It would, of course, be absurd to expect to create a popular business street out of a thorough fare lying far beyond the natural limits of traffic; but there is no question that any street directly tributary to business thoronghfare can be fully doubled in value by the installation of spectacular lighting.
 "ln morS general way, lighting the en- tire business section of a city up to the standards of modern illumination does Tor the city as whole what the lighting oI q particular street does for that section it increases values by increasing the traf- fic, not only from the city itself but from the surrounding country and nearby towns That good light increases the value Of re- sidential streets by making them more de- sirable needs no argument Good street lighting, more thah any other thing, gives to a city an air of progressiveness and prosperity. Nothing succeeds like sue cess; to appear prosperous is the first step to being prosperous
