SAW Big
BALLOON LAND
Lewis R0dlun Sees Louis I'D Land
Near Milaca. AreoDau0
Enjoy Long Trip.

Lewis Rodlun returned homo from
a visit at Milaca Friday. Mr..
Rodlun had the pleasure Of seeing
the balloon St. Louis. III land on
the shores Of Lake Milaca Wednes-
day morning shortly after 9 O'Clock,
and he further enjoyed the dlstinc-
tion of riding with them-in a
buggy, of course, the balloon hav-
ing been packed and sent to St.
Louis-from Waukon to Mora, on
the following day.
The aeronauts had a good many
interesting experiences to relate.
They had not slept since leaving
St. Louis on Monday. and had not
had a bite to eat for IL hours when
they landed. The only thing which
was left of their provisions was
some orange peelings, and this they
disposed of shortly before coming
down. In spite of their predica-
ment they would have continued
farther, but they mistook Lake
Milaca for Lake Superior, and de.
cided they had better make a land
ing on dry land. As it was the
balloon Of which they were pilots
won the long distance race as we'll
as the much coveted Lahm cup, and
they naturally felt very much elat-
ed. They found it very difficult to
obtain any information regarding
their whereabouts. One farmer an
swered their query by Hannah,
come quick und see der airship, -
and another hollered back. "Say,
boys, amt you 'fraid up there?
Animals of all kinds seemed to be
badly frightened by the strange
sight, and in one place the aero
nauts witnessed runaway, with.
out being able to lend a helping
hand to stop it. In spite Of the
hardships they endured they were
in pretty good condition physical.
]y, and they spoke enthusiastically
both regarding this trip as we'll as
about the future Of aeronautie
crafts in general.

Typical College Prank

Clad in night shirts and pajamaa
and keeping time to the music Of
two drums that headed the proces.
sion, the dormitory men Of Macales-
ter college paid a visit to Hamline
university last night.
The parade formed at 9 80 o o'clock
in the college chapel and marched
first to Wallace hall, the women q
building, where they treated the
goods to an impromptu serenade,
which was received with applause
and pitchers of water.
Boarding a car at Grand and
Smelling avenues, the paradera
started for Hamline. The con-
ductor, however. had other plans
and switched the car into the barns
at University avenue, and the COL
legians had to complete their Jour-
ney on foot.
Reaching Ham'ine. they paraded
the campus, giving vent to Macales-
ter yells and songs.
The Methodist institution failed
to respond to treatment, however,
and the thin white line Of niehties
marched back to the Smelling
avenue Car barns. There the Ger.
trude Hoffmans boarded 4 car and
rode one block. At that point q
pony ballet of policemen emerged
from the motorman's cab and lis
tened attentively for a noise like
five cents each from the Macalaster
CHANDELIERS. It was forthcoming.
Arriving down town, the students
paraded Wabasha street from Fifth
to Seventh and down Seventh to
Seven corners, where they took car,
for the Presbyterian reservation

WHEAT STILL SOARING HIGH
Northwest Millers Forced to Pay

Portland, Or, April More
money has been paid for wheat sup

the past week than ever before in the
history of the three states. Blue
stem wheat sold in a small way at
Eastern Oregon Washington points
up to $3.50 bushel basis tidewater

time that not more than few hun

SO great has become the shortage

though they regret it, some of the

Fear is expressed in some quar-

which the Pacific states sent millions
of bushels of wheat to the East, by
bringing In supplies of wheat from
east of the Rockies to evade the

PLAN CONFERENCE
OVER BOUNDARY
OFFICIALS TO MAKE OVIIRTURES
LOOKING TO SETTLEMENT.
HAY TO TAKE INITIATIVE
Washington Governor VIII Submit
Proposition for Conference
With Gov. Benson.

Portland, Or, April 1.-THE def
mite proposition of the Oregon and
Washington authorities holding a
conference on the Columbia river
boundary controversy will soon be
put up to Governor Benson and At
torney-General Crawford of Oregon
by Governor Hay and Attorney-Gen-
eral Bell of Washington, according
to f. L. Stewart, senator from Kelso.
Senator Stewart, who was the
originator of a treaty resolution
adopted by the Washington legisla-
ture, but which failed in Oregon, is
in Portland, having recently re-
turned from Olympia, where the sub
ject was discussed by Governor Hay,
Senator Stewart and c. N. Macarthur,
private secretary of the Oregon gov
ernor. 1t was arranged that Gov
ernor Hay, after a further confer
ence with Attorney-General Bell,
would write to Governor Benson and
offer to meet the Oregon authorities
either in Portland or Salem.
The object of the conference will
be to determine If it is not possible
to enter into an equitable compro-
mise, in order to save the two states
from the expense of finishing the
matter in the United States supreme
court.
The boundary controversy was de-
cided once by the supreme court of
the United States, but not to the
satisfaction of the State of Wash
ington. The latter succeeded in Sc
curing a rehearing, and an order was
entered by the court about 20 days
ago giving both states 40 days in
which to submit additional testi-
mony.
The proposal is now made by
Washington that the authorities of
the two states reach an amicable I'M
derstanding, which, while not bind
ing, could be used as the basis for
definite action by the two legisla-
lures two years hence.

NEWS FROM THE
NATIONS CAPITAL
PLAN MAXIMUM TARIFF FOR
HOSTILE NATION.
GIVE YEAR TO ADJUST RATES
Representative From Missouri Would
Make Supreme Court
Arbiters.
GIVE YEAR TO ADJUST RATES

Washington-President Taft has
been informed of the senate program
for the administration of the new
tariff bill. 1t provides that the min
imum tariff shall apply to all coun-
tries for one year. At the end of
that time the maximum rates will go
into effect against all countries
which, in the opinion of the Presi-
dent, are not giving the United
States their best tariff rates.
The President, it is understood,
favors strongly the idea of applying
the maximum and minimum princi-
pie and 1t Is believed that it will be
agreed upon fully. Reports have
been current that the majority sem
timent in the senate opposed the
minimum and maximum principle as
enunciated in the Payne bill.
The difference between the mini
mum and maximum rates will be 20
per cent. 1t is planned that for nine
huOhbhS Vi OhO yCui INC
rate shall apply to all countries with
out distinction or discrimination. At
the end of this period the maximum
rates will go into effect.
Sparkman (Fla.) opened the dis
cussion with an earnest plea for a
restoration of the Dingley rate on
lumber and the imposition of duty
of five cents a pound on cotton.
While declaring he would vote for
the bill, Kinkaid (Neb.) entered a
strenuous objection to the taxing of
the necessaries of life which are not
produced in this country. The pro-
posed tax on tea and the counter
vailing duty on coffee, he said, were
especially obnoxious to him and he
urged their removal. Kinkaid also
opposed the placing of hides on the
free list.
Many changes were made in the
paragraphs covering linoleums,
horsehair goods, wood pulp and
print paper, cutlery and wire. The
duty on charcoal iron is reduced to
$40 a ton, while all CLUES are as
sessed at 25 per cent ad valorem.
