MEDICAL MEN MEET
Central Minnesota District Medical
Association Holds Interesting
Session in Princeton.
DR.. II. Longstreet Taylor, Director of
Lake Pokegama sanatorium,
Reads Principal Paper.

Yesterday afternoon meeting OF
more than ordinary interest was held
at the Odd Fellows hall, when mem
bers of the Central Minnesota Dis
trict Medical association gathered to
hear papers read on-and to discuss
the treatment of the white plague.
The meeting was, correctly speaking,
tuberculosis congress.
DR.. 81. Longstreet Taylor of st.
Paul, director of the Lake Pokegama
Sanatorium for Consumptives,
recognized expert in tuberculosis, who
had been invited by the association,
was present and read highly instruc-
tive paper on ''The General Treat
ment and Management of Tubercu-
losis as Practiced at the Pokegama
Sanatorium.'' This paper-and the
general discussion which followed
consumed the greater part of the
afternoon, and deep interest was
manifested by the profession in DR..
Taylor's lucid description of the
work at the sanatorium.
DR.. 81. c. Cooney also read a paper,
his subject being "Tubercular Peri
tonitis-Its Medical and Surgical
Treatment" This, too, was a paper
in which much interest was taken and
it was thoroughly discussed by the
members.
The physicians and surgeons present
at the convention were DR.. q. Long
street Taylor, St Paul, director of
the Lake Pokegama Tuberculosis
Sanatorium; DR.. Tiesberg, resident
physician at the same sanatorium;
DR.. Lewis and DR.. Nelson, Mora; DR..
Swenson, Braham; DR.. Geo. E. Par
sons, Elk River: DR.. j. 81. Garand,
Dayton; DR.. Schulene, Cambridge;
DR.. Swennes, Lawrence; Drs. Cooney,
Galley and Lester, Princeton. During
their stay the visiting physicians we're
entertained by the local members
OF the association and dinner was
partaken OF at Henry Newbert's fam
Gus hostelry, the Park house.
The ladies who accompanied their
husbands to Princeton were Mrs. Ties
berg, Mrs. Lewis, Mrs. Nelson, Mrs.
Swenson and Mrs. Garand. These
were very pleasantly entertained by
Mrs. B. c. Cooney at dinner and
during the time the convention was
in session.
In the evening the visitors departed
for their homes, expressing the hope
that it would not be their last trip to
the beautiful village of Princeton.

Death of Dan McCuatg

Dan McCuaig, jr., died at the res
idence OF his parents in Milaca yes
terday morning. He had been i'll with
consumption for several years and
his demise was not unexpected. Some
time ago he went to Arizona hoping
that the climate there would benefit
him. This spring he returned to Min
nesota in very enfeebled condition.
Deceased was Al years of age and was
born in this county. He was held in
high esteem by all who knew him and
his death is sincerely regretted. He
is survived by wife and two children.
The remains will be inferred in Oak
Knoll cemetery in this village to-
morrow.

A Public Benefactor.

The man who improves the highways
is Christian. When Henry Holthus
leaves this world, several score of
years hence we hope, he will be en-
titled to front seat in the parquet
circle of the mansion above. Several
weeks since he covered a sandy piece
OF road near his home with shavings
and sawdust from his mill and earned
the gratitude of hundreds who travel
that much used highway. On Mon
day he spread heavy coating of
slough grass on a part of the high
bank sand hill Immediately east of
the village limits. May Mr.. Holthus'
shadow never grow less. We only
wish farmers of the Henry. Holthus
stamp were more numerous.

A Letter From Arthur Payette.

Arthur Payette, formerly of Prince

upon the lands by the government

He just Happened In.

There is one newspaper expression
that is getting to be rather of the
hackneyed order these days and it
reads about like this: Lieut.. Gov.
Eberhart, who happened to be in the
city on business, was present at the
banquet and was called upon for re-
marks" Of course, it isn't always
a banquet, but it is a picnic or a
church dedication or a market day or
some other event that brings the crowd
together. The business interests of
our friend from Mankato have evil
IDENTIFY become more complex and
extensive than they used to be.

splendid Farming and Dairy Reeio,

Mr.. c. L. Peterson writes from
Eastwood, Aitkin county: sI have
never seen letter in your valuable
and interesting paper from Aitkin
county. We think southeastern Aitkin
and northeastern Mile Laos cannot
be beat. There is no more productive
soil anywhere. Wheat has yielded as
high as 40 bushels per acre in this vi
cinity. Corn also does we'll. But in
root crops and grasses this section of
Aitkin county excels. The 500 road
is going to do wonders for this
country. We are within sight of the
most beautiful lake in the northwest
Mile Laos. Wild land can be pur-
chased at prices ranging from SO to
Sl5 per acre, save some of the shore
land that is owned by Spectators
and held for exorbitant prices.
These land-grabbing Spectators are
the curse of this country. Their hold
ings should be taxed right smartly
and they would be forced to part with
the land at reasonable prices. Many
OF our farmers have valuable herds
of cattle. The building of creamery
at Wahkon has encouraged farmers
to go into the dairying business.
There is good money in milk COWS.
every man who is ambitious and
willing to work has good chance to
make money right here. I can't see
hat the laboring man in the city has
in the future, except to work by the
day or month all his life through,
never getting any further ahead. A
farmer is always independent if he is
willing to work, and nowhere in the
northwest is there better opportuni.
| ty for man of small means to get
ahead in the world than right here,
provided he buys his land right and
uses his head as we'll as his hands,"

.PICCERS ARE NABBED'
Con Anderson and Paul Beutell Are
Fined Fifty Dollars Apiece In
Justice Dickey's Court.
Defendants Plead Guilty to Offense
as Charged in Complaint and
Each Pays His Fine.

Con Anderson and Paul Beutell
were arrested at Milaca-one on Sun
day night and the other on Monday
by Sheriff Shockley upon a warrant
sworn out by S. Kvam, Minneapolis
detective, charging them with con-
Quoting an unlicensed place for the
sale of Intoxicating liquors. They
were brought to Princeton, where
Anderson was arraigned before JUS
tlce Dickey on Monday and Beutell on
Tuesday. Both defendants pleaded
guilty to the ofense as charged and
Justice Dickey fined each $50 and
costs, which in the case of Anderson
amounted in all to S68 and in that of
Beutell to S75. The fines were paid.
County Attorney Ross represented the
state and Olin c. Myron of Milaca
the defendants.
It appears that Detective Kvam
and his assistant, Gus Moberg, had
been endeav oring for week or more
to obtain evidence which would con-
vict the illicit liquor dispensers and
they eventually succeeded in trapping
them.

Good Plcking-Cucumbers Yielding Well.
Robert Shufelt picked for Sandy
Hatch and delivered at the factory
Monday 1896 pounds of cucumbers
as follows: 4O4 lbs. small size: 487
lbs. medium: 804 lbs. large. This is
certainly going some.
Cucumbers are coming in freely and
the factory will get all it can proftably
handle. Phenomenal yields are re-
ported in places, but a little rain is
badly needed. It is estimated that at
least $4,000 will be paid out for
pickles at the factory here before the
season closes.

Rev. George E. Satterlee Goes to Kansas.
DR.. George E. Satterlee, formerly
pastor of the M. E. church at Prince
ton but now of the Central Park
Methodist church, St. Paul, will go to
Fort Scott, Kansas, as pastor of the
First M. E. church there. Rev. E. M.
Evans, pastor of the church at Fort
Scott will take Mr.. Satterlee's place
in st. Paul. The change is to be
effective September Is. This transfer
is made at the request of Mr.. Satter-
lee on account of the health of his
wife, who hopes to suffer less from
rheumatism in a milder climate. Rev.
Satterlee made many friends during
his stay in Princeton, in fact no more
popular minister ever filed a pulpit
in this village, and they will all regret
to learn that he has determined to
leave Minnesota for time at least.
It is to be hoped that the change will
prove beneficial to Mrs. Satterlee.

Aeroplanes as Scouts, Not Flghters.


Wilbur Wright has made the state
ment that in his opinion the use of
aeroplanes for dropping bombs or ex-
plosives into hostile army is i'm
practicable, as the machines must rise
1000 or 1900 feet above the ground
to escape shell fire. At that height
accuracy would be impossible in
dropping explosives when moving at
40 or so miles an hour He believes
their only use in war will be as scouts
and messengers. A glass of golden
grain belt beer gives vigor to the
body and strengthens your nerves.

"GOOd-Bye."

Goodbye is hard word to speak.
Some may laugh that it should be, but
let them; icy hearts are never kind.
1t is word that has choked many an
utterance and started many tear.
The hand is clasped, the word is
spoken, we part, and are out on the
ocean of time-we 60 to meet again,
where? God only knows. It may be
soon, it may be never.
Take care that your goodbye be
not cold one-it may he the last one
you can give. Ere you meet again
deaths cold hand may have silenced
his lips forever. He may have died,
thinking you cared not for him.
Again, it may be a long separation.
Friends crowd on and give you their
hands. How do you detect in each
goodbye the love that fingers there:
and how may you bear with you the
memory of these parting words many
days?
We must separate. Tear not your
self away with careless boldness
that defes all love, but make your
words linger-give your heart full
utterance-and if tears fall, what OF
it? Tears are not unmanly.-A. G.
Rutledge in Bemidji Pioneer.

Does Not Hurt Northwestern Millers,

Does Not Hurt Northwestern Millers.
Washington, Aug. 23.-The requests
OF manufacturers of bleached flour
that no further seizures of bleached
-four be made until test case should
have been decided were refused today,
following a conference between Wade
Ellis, acting attorney general, and DR..
q. F. Dunlop of the pure food board
Of the agricultural department.
The food experts of the agricultural
department some time ago decided
that bleached -four was in violation
of the pure food laws not so much on
the ground of impurity but because Of
alleged misbranding and the agents of
the department instructed to make
seizures of the -four. Counsel for the
millers, the largest of which are in
Iowa and Nebraska, are seeking to
have the seizures discontinued until a
test case could be made and decided.
Today it was determined that seizures
will be continued without regard to
test case.
It is not known what percentage of
flour now consumed in the country is
put through the bleached methods.
There are two processes of bleaching,
one by electricity and the other, a
chemical process, is used nearly alto
gether. The large millers of the
northwest stopped bleaching -four on
February l. The hard wheat of the
northwest makes white -four without
bleaching, while the softer wheat of the
middle west does not produce such
white color when milled.

LAKE WATER IS PURE
Charley Malone Believes No Water
in the State is Superior to
That of lille Laos.
Algae No Indication of ,lmpurity as
They Are Found Only Near
Surface of the Lake.

Our old friend, Charley Malone OF
Isle, was in Minneapolis the other day
and he waxed enthusiastic over the
prospect of that city getting it's water
supply from Mile Laos. Listen to
Charley:
81 believe that we have a lake
which, for clearness and good water,
will rank with any lake in the state,
with the possible exception of Lake
Superior. I was the second white
settler at the lake and have lived
there for over 30 years. I know every
point in the lake and am convinced
that the water is the best Minneapolis
can hope to secure.
''The report that there are thousands
of dead fish in the lake which con-
taminate the water is an exaggeration.
In body of water as large as Mile
Laos there necessarily are many dead
fish, but they have no effect on the
purity of the water. The dead fish are
carried ashore by the waves and are
then taken away by birds.
"Nor does the presence of algae in
the water indicate impurity. These
algae. wherever found, are near the
surface. When you get down to the
bottom the water is absolutely clear.
"When the Minneapolis city coun-
cilmen visited the lake, they did not
sound the deepest points. 1 have
taken soundings in the channel be.
tween my summer resort and Malone
island and have found the water 81
feet in depth. Others claim that they
have sunk lines to depth of 200 feet
in some portions on the lake. The
lake today is at it's lowest stage in &c
years.
| ''There are hundreds of springs in
the lake, especially out toward the
center. In some points five or six
miles from shore, you can find i'm.
mense springs. If Minneapolis should
decide to get it's water from the lake,
there is no reason why the intake pipe
could not be placed above one oil
these springs, giving your city the
finest water in the state.''
