CATHOLICS RAISE 100000

St. Paul, Jan. 27.-A purse of
100000, the gift of friends and ad-
mirers, much of it in contributions of
from 81 to SIS, was presented to
Archbishop John Ireland Saturday
night at his residence here, while his
close friend, Bishop James McGolrick
of Duluth, stood beside him. +
Paul Doty, chairman of the gift
committee, headed a group of fifty
persons and presented the gift on be-
half of the donors. Bishop J. j. Law
Ter and a group of priests were pre-
sent. The fund given to the arch
bishop is to be devoted by him to
raising the dome of the cathedral
which is being built for the archdio-
cese. After the presentation and
reply, an informal luncheon was
served. Archbishop Ireland predicted
that the cathedral would be complet-
ed before 1915. @

RESUME FIGHTING
Vienna, Jan. 27.-Trieste has re-.
ceived a message from Constantinople
asserting that Turkey has opened
hostilities along the Tchatalja line.

Constantinople, Jan. 27.-Gravest
apprehension of further and more
serious disorders last night was felt
throughout Turkey. There was a
well defined rumor that a counter
revolution was planned to overthrow
the Young Turks who seized the porte
two days ago after killing Maxim
Pasha, commander-in-chief Of the
army.
It is matter of general knowledge
that many of the most influential Of
fcers Of the Turkish army are bitter
ly opposed to Enver .Bey and his
methods and the newest revolution
airy plot is said to have the backing
of the soldiers now at Tchatalja.
The militarists credited with plan-
ming the counter-revolution8 fear the
influence Of Enver Bey. They believe
that he is too radical as we'll as too
ambitious. They believe that he
means to make himself absolute dic-
tator of Turkey if possible and that
practical anarchy would follow the
success of his schemes. "

Cass Lake, Jan. 27.-Fire Satur-
day night destroyed the finishing
room of the plant of the. Northland
Pine Grating company and entailed
loss of $4,000. Officers of the COM
pany are not certain there Is any in
surance on the part burned as an in
surance policy was pending.
Owing to the fact that the company
has large amount of orders ahead,
enough men will be taken to the Be-
midi Box factory, which Is owned by
the same people, to run that factory
at full capacity and 50 practically
double it's output. e. e. Kendeld,
manager Of the Bemidji plant. came
here Sunday to investigate. ~ *
There have been five or six fires at
this plant since it was built q few
years ago and insurance companies
have been wary about writing aliuA
on the building. The Chicago repre-
sentative of the company was me-
gotiating for insurance about ten
days ago. but 1t is not certain wheth-
er or: not he had he policies ct the.
time of the fire. :,
1t will be remembered that a few
days before the federal court at SUI
perior held H. N. Harding. a local in
surance agent, responsible to the
Liverpool and London and Globe in
surance company for over $4,000 for
a policy which the company had ord
cred Cancelled, but which the agent
did not promptly do and caught fire
at this same plant for the amount Of
the policy. The Grating company
sued the insurance company and re-
covered and then the insurance COM
pany after several years in court re-
covered judgment against the agent.
Suspect a Firebug.
The frequency with which 1ires
have occurred at this plant have
forced the citizens of Cass Lake and
the company to the reluctant conclus-
ion that there is firebug working to
destroy the plant. The company has
always suffered financially to quite
an extent at each fire but have al
ways rebuilt the burned part. After
the fire Immediately preceding this
one which was in the boiler room. the
company began the policy Of rebuild
ing of fireproof mat erial.
Mr.. Oman statas that in line with
the policy Of the company the de-
stroyed portion of the plant will
probably be rebuilt of either steel or
concrete al once. The engine room.
boiler room, saw mill Office and dry
kiln were not injured by the fire.
T,.ere was no tile Of any kind In
the destroyed building prior to the
discovery of this and Mr.. Oman states
he haa two men at work all day yes
terday thoroughly cleaning up the
entire building of all kinds of litter
and there seems no possible chance
for the fire to have started except by
the act of an incendiary.

TO BAR THE COMMON CUP.

A bill has been introduced in the
legislature by Senator Marden' of
Clay county, prohibiting the use Of
the common drinking cup in all pub
lie places in Minnesota. The bill is
in the hands of a committee and may
be acted upon within the next week.
Should the legislature enact the
measure into law, the roosting place
of many billion disease germs will be
destroyed and a lot of infection. suf-
fered by the people avoided. America
laughed at Kansas a few years ago
when the Sunflower state placed a
bar against roller towels, but after a
report was made on the number of
disease germs that lurked in some of
them, persons became sober and
thoughtful as they turned to the
drinking cup. More Investigation,
and this hypothetical question fol-
lowed: %s -, 5%
eff one and one-third million bac-
terra can dwell together in peace and
harmony on one-third of a square
inch of a roller towel, how many bac-
terra can be impaired to an area of
one square inch on the edge of a
common drinking cup?" zse> 81:
The common drinking cup is even
more deadly and dangerous than the
roller towel because from it germs
left by diseased persons are carried
directly into the mouth, while from
the towel they are only rubbed upon
the outside. Should the Marden bill
be passed, the common drinking cup
will be prohibited in all depots,
public halls, office buildings and

THE SMOKE EVIL
AND ITS COST.

In a recent article Iron Age, discus
sing the smoke evil, and smoke
losses, urges upon all manufacturing
communities the adoption of the
following rules as desirable from
both the health and the economic
viewpoint.
L Education Of all firemen SO that
they will fire intelligently.
2. The installment, wherever prac-
,ticable of automatic stokers or appE-
ances such as blowers and steam jets
for thoroughly mixing proper
proportion of air in the furnace.
5. Laws and ordinances, reason
able, sufficiently rigid to make Of
tenders against the smoke laws feel
that they cannot offend with impun-
ity.
4. The creation of an intense and
widespread public sentiment, based
on intelligent knowledge of the bane-
full effects of the smoke plague which
morally will compel men TO respect
public opinion in that regard
In support of its position Iron Age
gives some facts and illustrative
figures, which are as interesting and
as convincing as to the enormous
"cost of smoke" as they will prove
astonishing to the average reader.
Here is "key" from which to esti-
mate annual smoke losses ,as furn-
ished by four of our large cities:
Annual loss in Cleveland .S6,O0O,OOt
Annual loss in Cincinnati 100000
Annual loss in Pittsburgh. 10,OO0,OOt
Annual loss in Chicago 17,OOO,OO(
These estimates were based on re
ports made by college professors an;
"smoke experts" delegated by thi
cities named to investigate the sub
icct and who devoted months K
their work.
Our technical" contemporary als'
quotes H. NJ. Wilson, chief engineer
fthe experiment station of the I'm
ted States Buraeu of mines, at Pitts
burgh, as declaring that the smok
nuisance costs this country S6OO,OO0,
900 year. "The damage done an
nually in the large towns OF tn
United States by smoke" conclude
Mr.. Wilson, "would build in ever,
city of 100000 inhabitants in thi
country structure equal to Tn
congressional! library. There woul'
be left over enough to maintain tn
army and navy for the curren
yearAand then plenty left after thu
to build the capitol in Washington
The figures above given have,
is stated, relation entirely to "final
cial losses"
