MINNEAPOLIS TO
HAVE AUTO SHOW

Minneapolis is to have an auto show
Feb. 10 to 30 inclusive, and If the very
formidable start that has been made
toward peFfeeting the ARRANGEMENTS /,
a fair Index 1t Is to be enc CT tht
most speetaeHIar events, besides serv.
Ing as a medel school ef instructed
fer the thousands In the northwest
who are interested In the auto technics
OF the new 1910 makes that has ever
been held In connection with exhibit
tons OF this nature In the twin cities
The spacious feers OF the national
guard Armory will be utilized for the
show and It Is estimated that thsre
will be on exhibition models of ears
Of the 1910 patternss numbering up-
wards Of 200.
This great show has the sanction
and Is receiving the support of the
Minneapolis Automobile club, which
In itself Ii a sufficient guarantee that
the event will be something far re-
moved from the ordinary. Walter
Wilmot, who had charge Of the big ex-
hibit at the state fair this year, will
again manage this exhibit. He Is al
ready actively at work lining up at
fractions for the show, which will be
side features for the amusement of
visitors The general idea Of this fea-
ture is elaborate. There will be yaude-
vile acts, miniature circuses, perform
ing animals and dozens of other fea-
lures along this line. Plans for the
decorative features Of the big show are
being made and IL is proposed to make
this feature one OF the biggest of the
show. Especially will this be true of
the electrical effects at night. Millions
Of lights viii be used within and with
out, which will blaze the way for the
thousands who will go to the armory
during the week.
Space for the various automobile
dealers OF the twin cities was allotted
a few days ago, and at the drawing
the scene was typical Of real life
sized land drawing. From this draw
ing the wiseacres of the automobile
trade have deduced the fact that one of
the most complete displays Of motor
vehicles Of every description ever made
in the west is assured.
Manager Wilmot announces this
week that negotiations have been
opened with Wright Bros. famous av-
iators, for the exhibition of their latest
type of aeroplane. Mr.. Wilmot says
that he is practically certain to secure
this added attraction for the big show.
This great show, while intended to
amuse, Is primarily calculated to serve
as an excellent means for motor en-
thusiasts of the northwest to acuuaint
themselves with the new things in the
automobile line for 1910. AS evidence
OF the manner in which the show Is
attracting attention the committee in
charge announce that inquiries for
space have been received from at least
a dozen Of the larger automobile ac-
cessory houses In all the large cities
OF the country. Chicago enthusiasts
have already shown spirit of co-op-
Grafton, and, no doubt the local man
agement of the big event will receive
assistance from this source.
They have done things in Chicago in
this line and the aid from there will
prove of great value

Most Fighters Have a Streak Of
Humor Somewhere in Makeup

II is perhaps a difficult matter to
believe that there are any good-na-
tured pugilistB because of the strenuous
lives they lead, but II IL nevertheless
fact that many fighters revel In fun
making when they let I'D in their
training. Some Of the best trainers
or pugilists say that good humor IL
an important factor in scoring success
In the ring, and that pugilists who en-
JOY a good laugh now and then while
preparing for a mill are easy to handle
ana invariably show cool headed tudg-
ment.
A lighter with a hot temper seldom
climbs the ladder, because he is in
clined to lose his bearings under fire
and thereby permit his antagonist to
take advantage of his errors Of tudR-
ment. Jeffries, Fitzsimmons, Sharkey.
Mccoy Nelson, Ketchel, Driscoll, At
tell and other great pugilists possess
even tempers and consequently in all
or their battles they have never lost
control Of their brains. They have al
ways enjoyed the humorous side of the
boxing game, and have taken part In
many practical jokes.
When Willie Lewis, the clever East
Side middleweight, came across the
Atlantic from England recently he
thoroughly enjoyed himself on the big
liner Oceanic. Among the passengers
was big, important-looking English
man who seemed to take extreme de-
light In decrying everything American.
One afternoon there was an entertain
ment in the first cabin and the tenn
porary stage was decorated with an
English and an American flag. Sud
denly the stars and stripes fell to the
floor accidentally, whereupon the Brit
Usher exclaimed:
That's like every blooming thing
Americana It's not substantial and is
bound to fall"
What in thunder do you mean?"
demanded Lewis, with fire in his eyes.
Just exactly what l said" replied
the Briton. Don't you Yankees un-
derstand the English language?"
Yes, l understand you!" said the
American fighter quickly. "Just step

Signs Of Good Breeding.

A bow should always be returned,
even though one may be mistaken for
some one else, for to give the cut di-
rect is a discourtesy of which no per-
son Of good breeding should be guilty.
It is perfectly easy to acknowledge a
salutation with such dignity but brevi-

It is this failure to make the best %

husbands and wives adrift on a restless

No man who has been living alone but
