GRAY NAMED FOR GOVERNOR
State Committee Fills Vacancy on the
Democratic Ticket.

James Gray, former mayor of Min.
neapolis, has been chosen by the Dem
ocratic state central committee as the
party candidate for governor.
The movement was practically unan-
imous from the moment his name was
mentioned There was but one object
ing voice and that was raised by
Major ]. M. Bowler Of Minneapolis.
1t was evident from the moment d.
w. Lawler arose and, on behalf of
the Democracy of Ramsey county, Sec
onded the nomination, that Gray would
have no serious opposition.
John Lind, the man nominated by
the state convention, which met in
Minneapolis July %, was present. 1t
was said before the meeting was
called to order that Mr.. Lind was
present for the purpose of opposing
any anti-Gray trend which might
make itself manifest. There was no
occasion for Mr. Lind to appear in
that role.
Frank A. Day was reelected chair
man of the state central committee.
He accepted.

THOUSANDS GREET LEGATE
st. Paul People Turn Out to Welcome
Cardinal VannuteIIi.

By far the largest crowd that ever
was packed into the large ST. Paul
Auditorium, filling every foot of floor
space and examining the aisles to the
remotest edge of the upper galleries,
greeted his eminence, Cardinal Vim
cenzo Vannutelli, papal 1egate, when
he stepped onto the stage to deliver
his address as representative of the
pope. Fully 10000 persons listened to
the words delivered in French and in
a voice somewhat weakened by age,
and sat in the hushed silence of rev.
erence to the words of the cardinal,
who selected St. Paul as the first city
of the United States to be visited.

We have converted the country into
a meaningless Switzerland and made
It one vast hotel for foreigners This
may prove to be a most delfghtfus
method of becoming actually depend
ent and eventually develop US into q
meaningless people. Our old poverty
was perhaps far better for us than to
become a nation of walters and bid
ding for tips. We are soon turning
into a set of beggarfolk with the cap
off and the other hand reaching ous
for a tip" Mr.. Hamsum's words are
a trife strong, but may be productive
of arousing the Norwegian people to
believe in the theory of encouraging
their people to remain at home and
encourage home industry rather than
inviting so many foreigners to their
shores. The same holds true of SWe-
den even in a greater degree.
Norway's oldest man at present tS
Abel Lind Eliasson, born at Arvik, in
Vaagen, in 1895. He is therefore 114
years old, but is still so spry that he
is able to visit all his neighbors and
walk rather a long distance without
being visibly fatigued. He has al.
ways been an exceedingly healthy
man, has a strong constitution and
has used tobacco for almost 100 years.
He is by all odds the most wonderful
man in Norway at present.
To steal whole house may be re-
garded as the height of nerve and had
it happened in Russia or America 1t
would not have been so surprising,
but this really happened in Christiania.
The other day when Christiania c1t1'
zen returned from an extensive jour-
ney up country, where he had been at
tending to some business, he learned
to his amazement that some one had
hauled the house away. What has be-
come of it is a mystery and no one has
been able to trace the thief or the
house.
There has been such a great crop
failure in Vastlandet that the stor.
thing may have to make an appropria-
tion to help out the people in that sec.
tion of the country or they will not be
able to get through the winter. Nearly
all the farmers have sold their stock
and the few cattle that they intended
to keep over fall and winter they will
have to butcher for home use. 1t has
been an unusually dry season and the
hay crop has been a failure.
Bjornstjerne Bjornson's famous viii

turn the old estate into a Bjornson
museum, but she has abandoned this
plan.
Up to Aug. Is the Bergen exposition

POPULATION OF CLEVELAND
Ohio City Among First Ten Cities Of
the Country.

Washington, Sept. 16.-The popula.
tion of Cleveland is 56O,663, an in
crease of 178,985, or 46.9 per cent, as
compared with 381, ,768 in 1900.
The returns for Cleveland establish
that city as one of the large centers
of population of the country, lifting it
to a point above Pittsburg and com,
paratively close behind st. Louis and
Boston. Cincinnati, which in 1890 con-
tained about $4,000 more persons than
Cleveland, is now distanced to the ex-
tent of almost 10000. The Northern
Ohio city hereafter will take rank
among the first ten cities of the coun-
try.

NEGRO Stabbed to Death.

A remark which Roy Jeffries, a

to a mulatto girl in Minneapo-
lis pool room cost him his life. His
words were overheard by John Jones,
another negro, who first demanded an
apology, and few minutes later, be-
hind a pool table, stabbed him in the
groin with a dirk. Jeffries bled to
death before aid reached him. Jones

CAR SHORTAGE is FEARED
Unusual Shipments From Duluth
Cause Traffic Men Anxiety.


Steam coal is this year being
shipped from Duluth to points in
Iowa and South Dakota which usually
are supplied direct from the Illinois
coal mines. This condition is the re.
suit of the strike of the coal miners
in Illinois.
The Duluth roads also are carrying
Goals to Newcastle, in that they are
delivering hay to points in which hay
in normal seasons is a product for
shipment. The same is true of oats
and some other commodities.
Unexpected calls for rolling stock Of
this nature at this busy time of year
has caused railroad men and shippers
to fear that a shortage of cars may
result. -s;>

Grosshandler Breit's Office was bro
ken into in Copenhagen the other
night and the burglars succeeded in
securing cash to the amou-t of 400
crowns and checks to the amount OF
not less than $4,000 crowns. 1t is the
biggest robbery that has taken place
in Copenhagen for many day, indeed
some say that it is the biggest bur.
glary in the history of the city. The
same night the theft was committed,
a notorious criminal by the name of
Michael Carlson made his escape from
the Fredriksberg hospital, from which
place another criminal, H. v Rasmus-
sen, had succeeded in escaping the
night before. It is believed hat these
two criminals, who have operated to-
gether in former years, committed the
robbery. The notorious pair attempt
ed to leave the city the other day in
company with couple of women, but
were arrested. They, however, main
tain that they had absolutely nothing
to do with the big robbery, but it is
significant that they had 300 crowns
with them. IN
A trip around Europe in a canoe is

noe from Gothenburg. His canoe is a
two masted affair. 1t is his intention
to journey through Emperor William
canal the North sea, cross the Eng
1ish channel and make his way to the
Mediterranean and the Black sea.
When he reaches Russian shores he is
going to make his way back through
Russian rivers and intends to stick to
water all the time He thinks that he
can make this unique trip in year
His friends predict that he will either
get drowned or that he will be glad to
make the return journey on foot,
Fire broke out in the city hall in
Copenhagen one day during the latter
