Johnson has engaged Charles ].
Mulligan, the noted sculptor of the Art
institute OF Chicago, TO make a cast OF
him, and as soon as he Is able to get
away from his vaudeville engagements
he will come to Chicago to go through
the ordeal OF being covered from head
to foot in clay.
Artists TO See Jack Cast
While the work is being done Mr..
Mulligan plans to have present his
colleagues at the Art institute fell
low members of the Cliff Dwellers, and
interested sculptors from outside of
Chicago.
Johnson believes that he ought 10

reproduced in plastine before the ef-

of the left fist will be made also.
The black champion got the idea OF
the statue while glancing through a
dictionary looking at the pictures
when he did not have anything else TO
do. He, ran across the cut of the Pol
ycetic spear bearer, supposed TO be the
acme of perfect proportion in man.
Perfect Proportion in Man
Jack got the notion that II mere. is a
perfect proportion in man from an
imaginary viewpoint there must also
be a type which is the perfection OF
strength and brute power in actual
man. And he thought he wassit.

Every one of the Cincinnati Red
Legs is confident that they will be
able to pass the Pirates i'm a few days
for they are now so close at the heels
of the champions for third place that
the champs are beginning to fret a lit

Reds have played SO games and have
won 49, which gives them record to
be proud of. Any team that can break
even on the road is doing well, but the
Reds have done better.

WASHINGTON. d G.. March rs
Senator Coe /. Crawford. of South Da-
kots. Is one OF the members OF the
Senate who thoroughly believe In the
conservation of personal resources. He
has a theory that the increased cost
of living IN caused by an over -abuna
dance of gold, but admits that he has
never been satisfied with the amount
he was able to accumulate.
Senator Crawford was recently a
member of Congressional party
which went to Panama to examine the
progress of the canal. THIS particular
party was not different from other
Congressional parties off on junket
The majority Of the members liked to
live well and enjoy themselves. and
did so from the moment the boat left
New York until II returned.

GOOD ROAD MEET
FOR ALL CITIZENS
EVERYBODY SHOULD BOOST FOR
BETTER ROADS FOR THE EN-
TIRE STATE OF NORTH DAKOTA,
FACTS ABOUT THE MEETING
THREE DAYS SESSION.

One of the points that the manage
ment of the North Dakota State Good
Roads association convention wish the
people of the entire state to understand
is that the convention is for the benefit
Of every citizen of North Dakota, for
there is nothing that so enhances the
value Of city and farm lands as the
fact that the people are able to say,
I'VE have good roads all over the
state" This convention is in the inter-
ests of good roads, and the speakers
who will come here are the best known
men in the United States at this line
of work -rr a. -r.~-..~ ~
Road building in all it's phases will
be taken up, from the work of making
road from the native soil to the fin
ished paved street of city. There will
be demonstrations in every branch of
toad building and one of the most in
teresting features that will be shown at
the convention is that of the Standard
Oil Co., which proposes to take a piece
Of the roadway at the agricultural coll
lege and oil it, at the same time ex-
planning the method by which the dust
is allayed on all roads. 1t is also ex-
pected that the stereopticon will be
largely used in showing pictures of the
good roads all over the United States.
The expense of making roads by diff
ferent materials will! also be shown,
and there will be special speakers for
different branches of the work.
The convention win open at 10
O'Clock on the morning of June % and
win continue as a. good roads conven-
ton until the following evening. On
Friday, June "a, the American Society
Of Equity in the grain growers depart
ment will hold meetings to which those
who attend the good roads convention
are earnestly invited. Every
arrangement has been made for TAX
ing care of the crowds that will be
present. All of the meetings of the
three days will be held in the agricul-
tural college armory, which. it is be-
lieved will be found to be large enough
to meet all the requirements.
