BOY HITS up THE KEYS
From Mondays Daily.

From Mondays Daily.
Parker C. Woodson, sixteen year
old boy, gave a typewriter demon.
stration at the Mankato Commercial
college, today that aroused a great
deal of interest among the students.
He demonstrated the Remington ma.
chine and did record breaking work
The boy is from New York and is
said to be one of the fastest type
writer operators in the world.
Perhaps the most sensational feat
of all was that of writing llS words
in a single minute, from new mat.
ter, and at the same time mentally
adding up five columns of five figures
each without error in either the writ.
ing or the adding.
Taking dictation of difficult bust
ness letter, new to him, at the rate
of 100 words minute with his eyes
blindfolded was another OF the
youths performances which aroused
keen interest, especially on the part
of the stenographers present, who
are frequently called upon to take
dictation directly on the machine.

REPEAL REAR LIGHT ACT

st. Paul, May 27.-Baby carriages
and hay wagons will be relieved
of the necessity of carrying rear
lights when the extra session OF
the legislature meets. This practi.
cally has been decided at the in,
formal caususes of house members
at the Merchants hotel during the
last few days.
This is practically the program
decided on: A short session. Pass
age of stating, gross-earnings Dill
increasing the rate from to 5 per
cent, recall, corrupt practices act
and, if there be time, legislative reap
portionment. There is considerable
talk of legislation to clip the wings
of the state tax commission, es-
pecially in the classification of prop
erty for taxation.
The leaders seem to favor con-
gressional restricting as compro-
n. Use and reserve legislative reap
portionment until the regular ses-
sion. Some are urging that Nfcollet
county be dropped from the third
district and put in the second.
Congressman Davis enemies are
urging this.

BETTER ROADS PROGRAM

st. Paul, May pa good roads
program calling for the construction
of approximately 1900 miles of high
way in Minnesota at cost of about
$2,500,000 has been formulated by
the Northern Minnesota Develop
ment league, as result of the opin.
ion handed down by the state su.
peme court holding the Elwell out
side road law to be constitutional.
If the program as planned is carried
out every town and city of impor-
lance between st. Paul and the in
ternational boundary will be con.
nected by improved thoroughfares in
the near future.
Now that the Elwell road bill can
be safely applied on all roads con-
structed hereafter in the state,
every county will probably formu.
late a good roads program such, as
the Northern Minnesota association
has done. Under the provisions of
the law, subtracting the $2,5OO,O0O
that the Duluth association intends
to spend on highways, there still re,
mains the sum of about $4,000, 600
available for roads in other parts OF
the state.
Attorney General Smith has decid'
ed that it was lawful for counties
to grant two supervisors per diem
for time spent in conference in an
other town or with county boards,
to enable towns to be relieved OF
cost of improving town or county
roads already established ii burden
of road is now on the town. This
opinion is expected to have a strong
effect in stimulating the good roads
movement in the state.

two or more decision days will be
held on June 8 and June 10, after
which the court will adjourn for the
summer, leaving number of cases
still undecided. Of the cases now
before the court forty-three are
two-cent rate cases, which involve

libeling Congressman Henry ID. Clay

impeachment of the court and asked
the house judiciary committee to
