Huxley and les~es.

1C~cos
Here is an anecdote once related by
Herbert Spencer-who, by the way.
was rather heavy in hand when he
undertook to play story teller. Apropos
Of Huxley's humor he described din
ner of distinguished authors:
Over their cigarettes they fell to dis
cussing their various methods of COM
mencing to write. One said he wrote
and wrote, tore up. then wrote again,
and so on.
George Lewes, who was present,
looked surprised, and then cried out:
"Oh, I'm not like that. l commence
to write at once, directly the pen is N
my hand. In fact. boil at low tefn-
perature."
Indeed" cut in Mr. Huxley, that
is very interesting, for, as you know,
to boil at low temperature implies q
vacuum in the upper region
Lewes himself was the first to lesd
the shout of laughter which greeted
this clever repartee.

white lozenge into his mouth. Next
thing he knew was that he was in the
hands of four stalwart attendants, who
caught him from behind. swung him
out Of his chair and carried him out Of
the casino into a small room adjoin-
ing. Refusing to listen to his angry
protests, they hastily laid him on a
sofa, forced his jaws open and poured
a strong emetic down his throat.
The consequences were so immediate
and disastrous that the poor man was
beyond speech. By that time it was
too late for his explanation that the
lozenge was merely a sulphate Of qui-
nine and that the casino authorities
were idiots for jumping to the conclu-
sion that he had lost his last penny
and taken poison.

1t is always a mistake to jump to

The courtroom itself seemed a fit

Surrounded by great marble pillars,
with the daylight shut out by heavy

fore an categorical painting of Justice,

500 TO BUILD
I2O NILES OF
new RAILROAD

Minneapolis, Dec. 2&.-"We will
build eighty-one miles upon the Am
brose line and extend. the Plaza line
to the Missouri river" is the authori-
tat1Ve statement of President Pen
nington Of the 500 railroad. It has
been practically a certainty that the
~eXtent1ons mentioned would be made
but there has been considerable spec
ulatton as to how far the lines would
be extended. The statement of Presi-
dent Pennington is the first authori-
tattVe announcement on the . ques-
ton.
With its ultimate plans secret, but
generally believed in railroad circles
that 1t is heading for Spokane and
the Pacific coast, the 500 line, in
he most important western railroad
move in years, will lay its rails across
the western border of North Dakota
early in 1913 and strike into the rap
idly developing territory of eastern
Montana. President q Pennington
authorized the statement that the
Ambrose line will go west across Di-
Mont, and that there will be eighty
one miles of new road. This would
carry the 500 rails about fifty miles
into Montana n drop them in a
location just below the Canadian
boundary, from which eventual ex-
tension work might push the line west
Tor Spokane north across the bound
airy or southwark into the Fort Peck
Indlan reservation.
The Great Northern and Northern
racine extension plans into this high
Iy productive n now. highly COM
petitlVe territory have been many.
some construction was completed in
the last eighteen months, other plans
being but recently announced, The
Great Northern branch line extends
to P~lentywood, a small but strate-
glcally important station in northwest
ern Valley county, about forty-fve
miles west of the North Dakota line,
and If the Soo's extension from Am
brose goes directly west and slightly
southwark 1t will strike Plentywood.
The Great Northern main line goes
south of Fort Peck reservation, it's
PlentyWood' extension from Bainville
coming up to the reservations eastern
edge. The 500 line. if carried straight
west, will skirt the northern edge of
the reservation, the. eventual settling
up of which is considered the most i'm
partant agricultural development OPP
portun1ty of the near future in the
western, country.
Pennington also said hat the Plaza
line is to be extended west to the
Missouri river. This, although only
about forty miles of new work, will
carry the road along to within a short
distance Of the Montana line and some
distance south to where the Ambrose
extension will cross It and the eventual
further extension of the Plaza line
would bring it into Montana near
Glendive, the most important North
ern Pacific point in eastern Montana.
1t would also carry it into territory
into which the Puget Sound extension
Of the Milwaukee road enters in it's
northward bend into Montana.
Pennington said he has no state
ment to make as to the eventual
plans and that no construction work
other than the two extensions has
been authorized. 81

In Court at Crookston, Referee Rules
Out Duluth Credit Bureau Which
Had Been Given Trust Deed,

Before Judge Vaule, as referee in
bankruptcy, at Crookston, yesterday,
at a first meeting of cerditors in the
case of the Oscar Flaner etsate Of
Spooner, the court made an important
ruling which affected the Duluth Job
bers' Credit bureau.

bureau had taken a trust deed from
Flatner and paid out dividends to GER

represented by w. A. Marin objected to
the Jobbers' Credit bureau voting

of a trustee and the objection was
sustained by Referee Vaule.
Mr.. Marin was elected trustee. The
question involved is a very important

GREAT NORTHERN
Double TRACK

st. Cloud, Mimi, Dec. 2S.-Reports
from Avon say the Great Northern
road has a crew of engineers at work
making a partial survey Of the line.
The purpose Of this is said to be the
Strengthening of the track in places,
as the road finds it necessary to double
the trackage from st. Cloud to Evans
vile. While railroad officials at st.
Paul are reticent in giving out in
formation it is understood that eX-
tensive improvements will be started
as soon az work is possible in the
spring.
The Great Northern has two tracks
from St. Cloud to Minneapolis, one. on
each side of the river, and it is now
necessary to have a double track
from st. Cloud to Evansville, owing
to the tremendous amount of freight
business. Because of the large num-
Der Of passenger trains running over
the st. Cloud line, much of the freight
business from the Dakotas and furth-
er west has been sent by way of Will
mar. The business, particularly in the
fall season, is too heavy for both the
st. Cloud and Willmar lines, and to
relieve the congestion, an extra track
will be built from ST. Cloud to Evans
Vile. At the latter place there is a
cross line to Tintah, which strikes the
breckenridge line, and trains car be
sent from Fargo to st. Cloud, either
on the direct line. or by way of Breck-
enridge and doubling the track from
here to Evansville, gives the Great
Northern practically three lines from
the twin cities to Fargo.
This will greatly increase the
amount of business that can be sent
over the road. and engineers say this
is the quickest and most economical
way for the Great Northern to make
provision for the tremendous increase
in traffic. 49,,

WILL SELECT AGENTS
Matter Of EIecting Business Agents
for the Builders Trades Council
Was Postponed.

The matter of electing business
agents for the Building Trades coun-
Gil for the coming year was postponed
from the regular meeting Thursday
night until the next meeting, owing
to the small attendance.
The Building Trades council held its
regular meeting Thursday evening in
Assembly hall. Due to the fact that
1t was the night after Christmas there
was a small attendance and the i'm
portant features of the evening were
postponed until later.
Everything in the building line is
reported as being as favorable as pos
sible at this season of the year. No
men are out of work in Fargo, which
is a most desirable condition for the
city. All the labor leaders of the city
feel greatly encouraged over the out
look.
A general outline for the winters
work will be planned at the next
regular meeting which is expected to
be largely attended.

Evenina Grain Letter.

Chicago, Dec. 2S.-Wheat: The
market opened fractionaliy lower
and ruled within a range of about q
of a cent throughout the session.
Commission houses were buvers
around 81 cents for May while there
was more or less selling by the north
west where receipts were again lib
eral. 1t seems to us as if some alb
acter must enter into the situation
to offset the pressure of daily re-
ceipts.
Corn: Prices continue to show the
dragging tendency which has been
prevalent for several days, with the
cash property still in poor demand
as compared with receipts. Weather
conditions continue most perfect for
a movement, which is practically
