THE "JITNEY" INVASION.

All that is required to be a trans
portation magnate now is to own a
Ford car. In nearly all of the large
and many of the smaller cities the
"jitney" bus is cutting into the pro-
fits of the street car companies and
making owners of autos rich. When
it was at first suggested that owners
of machines could make any money
carrying passengers for a five cent
fare it was thought to be impossible.
A few, wiser than the rest, started
"jitney" lines with their machines. 1t
has been demonstrated in San Fran
cisco that the owner of car can clear
from six to ten dollars day by car
rying passengers at the "jitney" rate.
In most of the cities these buses fol-
low the routes of the regular street
cars and are making trips on regular
schedules. A "jitney", by the way, is
a nickel-fve cents.

SEX OF THE INSANE.

/ Of approximately every five hun
dred persons in the United States in
1910, there was but one an inmate of
an asylum. The exact figures express
sed in a recent report of the census
bureau, state that in typical COM
munity of 100000 persons, equally
divided as to sex, 20S of the males
would be found in the insane asylums.
In the course of year, II males and
60 females would be admitted to the
asylums. In 1880 the total number
of inmates in insane asylums in the
United States included 20,635 males
and 20,307 females. Thirty years
later the number of male inmates had
increased to 1886, and the number
of female inmates to 80,096. The ex-
cess of men among admissions in 1910
indicated still further increase in the
proportion, namely, 1913 males to 100
females. An analysis of these admis-
sions as to the specific forms of insan-
ity involved brings to light the inter-
esting fact that if alcoholic psychosis
and general paralysis are deducted,
the proposition of the sexes is prac-
tically the same. The diseases men
toned, says the Journal of the Amer
lean Medical Association, would seem
to be those which, generally, are the
result of dissipation. Alcohol and
syphilis again established their su-
periority as mans most dangerous al
lied foes.

BOOSTING MINNESOTA.

Hon. Frank M. Eddy, "the travel
er and the talker, he the marvellous
story-teller," was a visitor to this me-
tropolis, Thursday last, and after ou1
last issue was out we immensely en-
joyed an hours conversation with the
gentleman. Mr.. Eddy halls from Sank
Centre, MINI. and for a young man, of
only some 81 summers he has had
about as varied an experience as is
ever vouchsafed to man. He has been
farm boy, student, teacher, lumber
expert, lawyer, member of congress,
traveller, lecturer Con educational
subjects, temperance, etc., awful ex-
ample, perhaps and bright, observing,
able sincere person always. 1t was Mr.
Eddy who made the nomination
speech for Hon. Knute Nelson for
governor of Minnesota, the time the
little Scandinavian giant failed to get
the nomination, but two years later
named him again, making a better job
of it presumably, for the sturdy
Norseman won. At present Mr. Eddy
is in the employ of the Minnesota
beard of publicity and immigration,
and in that capacity he will deliver a
profusely illustrated lecture in Slos-
son opera house on the afternoon of
February II. He is not selling real
estate, not an inch of it, he tells us,
but is presenting the claims of north
ern Minnesota to renters on Iowa's
high priced lands, and to others who
want to make a farm home of their
own and find prices here in the corn
and-banana belt prohibitive. Person
ally we are strongly committed to the
claims and advantages of Northern
Iowa, but we'll guarantee that, what
ever Col. Eddy's subject, he will put
up nightly interesting line of talk.

There are two reasons assigned for

Last Monday hearing was held in
the Senate chamber to which the pub
lie was invited. Notice that the place
of hearing has been changed from
House to Senate chamber. There was
barely so people at the last hearing.
And most of them were senators who
were busy at their desks when Sena-
tor F. A. Duxbury wrapped for order.
State officials like Charles E. Elm
quist of the Railroad and Warehouse
commission, and w. F. Houk, labor
commissioner, were on hand. The de-
partments they represent are affected
by the bill. That would account for
their presence. The hearing was on
the part of the bill relating to the
proposed department of labor and
commerce. But the public did not
grace the meeting with their presence
1t appears that interest is dropping
toward the absolute zero. The Eff

ing for the present bill to drop into
the discard before placing their bill

JULIUS SCHMAHL WEBS
Secretary of State Marries Stearns
County Girl, Formerly Employee
of Department.

Julius A. Schmahl, Minnesota's eff
ficient secretary of state, was united
in marriage at Twin Valley, Mimi,
Thursday of last week, to Miss Min
erva B. Fowlds, of Brooten, MINI. It
was known by Mr.. Schmahl's intimate
friends that he expected to wed Miss
towlds soon, but the exact date was
kept secret even from his most in
innate friends, and the first informa-
tion the office force received of the
wedding was when Mr.. Schmahl CAL
led them up over long distance and in
formed them of the event which had
taken place at Twin Valley, at the
residence of DR.. Herman Schmahl
Jaenings, nephew of the groom.
Miss Fowlds was head stenographer
in Mr.. Schmahl's office for a number,
of years prior to her resignation a
few months ago. She is an accom-
plished lady and in every way fitted
to make the secretary of state a de-
sirable helpmate. The Herald family
with thousands of other friends all
over Minnesota extend hearty felici-
tatiOns over the event. r

PLAY TO CAPACITY HOUSE
TrOusdale Company Pleases Large
Audience in MAN Higher Up"
Tuesday Evening.

The Trousdale Stock Company gave
a splendid rendition of that somewhat
unusual political drama, "The Man
Higher Up" before a capacity house
at the Caughren theatre Tuesday
evening of this week. The scene of
the drama is laid at Goldfield, New,
and the leading character is the pro-
prietor of the biggest gambling
house in town, who has a heart as big
as an OK, square in his dealings with
men. He has political ambitions and
has things fixed to go to the senate,
but gives up his political honors to
save his daughter from disgrace. Of
course everything ends happily in the
final act, and the william "gets his"

GET MOST FOR MONEY
Sank Centre People can Save Snug
Sums by Closely Reading Herald
Advertisements

Those reader of the Herald who,
have not been in the habit of reading
the advertisements are missing a.
splendid chance to save money. Aside
from the money-saving advantages
the advertisements have a news value
that is astonishing. Farmers espec-
Tally, who do not visit the stores fire.
quently, are not in touch with the
price reductions which are made
daily, and often they miss a chance
OF securing bargains that go almost
exclusively to city shoppers.
Many a farmer often loads his
wagon with forty or fifty bushels of
wheat and braves the storm to take,
the load to market just because the,
market price has jumped one cent per
bushel that day. Then he goes to some
store to buy goods unconscious of the,
TACT that the competitor is selling the
same goods at a smaller price. In this
way the purchaser often loses the
savings gained through Drawing the
storm and getting his wheat to mar
ket.
Reading of advertisements is a fine
art with the men and women of
large city. Enormous savings of
family funds are recorded each year
by the advertisement readers. It is
equally important that the readers of
the Herald keep posted on what the
Sank Centre merchants are offering.
Sank Centre merchants are not buy
ing advertisement space for the fun
OF the thing. There is a reason and a
good one. Those who read the adver-
Using will soon discover it and will
save money at the same time.
By all means read the ads.

Sam Chamberlain and covering a per-
iod of nearly two years, or since the
spring of 1918. Wednesday noon
Sheriff Kent and the 500 special
agent, J. J. Dasey, made a search of
the Chamberlain home on Lake Gen.
eva after Chamberlain had been found
in Alexandria and placed under ar
rest. Here was found a great guam
tity of supplies hidden, including but
ter, sugar, flour, coffee, eggs, bolts of
cloth, wheat, rye, barley, trunk and
the $4,000 double harness lost by
Charlie Hawkins a year ago. The
plant was hole under the main room
of the house, the opening being a
,, trap door covered with a carpet.
The robbery of Chas. Lyden last
Christmas was also one of the con-
fessions. 1t does not appear that the
mails were robbed when the tie sacks
were taken. The authorities are sat-
lsfied that Chamberlain simply took
sackful of empties from the depot
platform.
Sam Chamberlain, on learning that
their operations were known to the
authorities, also made a statement to
County Attorney Leach and Sheriff
Kent. The two worked together most
OF the time, but occasionally they act
ed separately. Their operations were
largely confirmed to the two railroads
their plan being to break open cars
and take what goods they could use or
dispose of. These raids were made at
night, when the "way freights" were
late. On the Great Northern, they
would either take out the goods at the
station or wait until the train pulled
out east. They would then drop off
the sacks of grain at road crossings
between here and Nelson. In the
search of premises the officers found
Is sacks of rye, of wheat and of
barley. Chamberlain's place was on
lake Geneva and was formerly owned
by Lee Ling. Two or three loads of
goods have been secured from this
place and load from Hanson's home.
Little of this could be sold but Cham
berlain, it appears, put some of the
butter into jars and sold it to local
parties.
Depredations at the Great Northern
were so frequent that the company
has had special agent here for some
time. Special Agent Hagen was here

Our Master,

We may not climb the heavenly sleeps
To bring the Lord Christ down.
In vain we search the lowest deeps.
For him no depths can drown.
Nor holy bread nor blood of grape
The ineaments restore
OF him we know in outward shape
And in the flesh no more.
He cometh not a King to reign.
The worlds long hope is dim.
The weary centuries watch in vain
The clouds of heaven for him.
Death comes, life goes; the asking eye
And ear are answerless.
The grave is dumb; the hollow sky
Is sad with silentness.
The letter fails, the systems fall,
And every symbol wanes
The Spirit overbrooding all,
Eternal love remains.
In joy of inward peace or sense
OF sorrow over sin
He is his own best evidence.
His witness is within
No fable old nor mythic lore
Nor dream of bards or seers,
No dead facts stranded on the shore
OF the oblivious years.
But warm, sweet, tender, even vet
A present help is he.
And faith has still its Olivet
And love its Galilee
whittier.

who are the authoritive interpreters
OF the law, and who are even empow-
cred in special cases for good and
sufficient reasons indicated in Cath
Ollie theology, to commute the precept
OF fast and abstinence to other peni-
tential work.
In enJoining upon the faithful fast
and abstinence, Holy Church makes a
practical application of evangelical
law of self denial, of which the Savior
and His apostles were by example and
by word such eminent teachers. With
out self-denial there is no Christian
ity. Indeed, without self-denial there
is no natural morality. The man who
has not acquired by habit the power
OF self-restraint will not be victorious
over sin, amid the temptations of life
which all men must encounter.
The observance of the fast and alb
stlnence, prescribed by the Church, is
taken by the world as a public and
fearless profession of Catholic faith.
He who, without sufficient and obvi-
Gus reasons, eats meat or takes his
usual meals when abstinence or fast
is enjoined, is not accepted as a prac-
teal Catholic.
Let Catholics have the courage of
self-denial for the sake of Christ and
Of their own souls, and be on their
guard lest by their acts scandal be
given, and the fair name of their re-
igion be dishonored.

appointed times in their several

PAIR OF BAD ONES
Couple of Alexandria Young Men
Confess to Series of Burglar
les from Box Cars.

Alvin M. Hanson and Sam Cham.
berlain are under arrest in this city
charged with grand larceny. The two
have confessed to a long list of depre,
dations and pleas of guilty will un.
doubtedly be entered, which will mean
a penitentiary sentence for each OF
the men, says the Alexandria Post
News.
The arrest of Alvin Hanson Tues
day night brought to close a career
of larceny and differing supposed to
have extended over a period of two
years. While their operations were
confined largely to the railway sta
lions citizens of Alexandria and coun7
ty are among those who suffered from
their raids. A part of the toll taken
of the railroads by Chamberlain are
five empty mail pouches or sacks.
These, he claims, were "empties"
picked up at the Great Northern sta
ton. What part these sacks will play
in the disposition of these cases is not
known at this time.
The arrest of Hanson Monday
night followed the breaking open of
freight car on the $500" tracks.
About midnight C. H. dickinson, the
night agent at the 500 noticed team
drive past the depot toward the
freight cars. He went out to investi-
gate, and noticing that the team had
been stopped near a freight car,
stepped back into the station to get
a cap and coat. When half way down
the platform he saw a man come
around the car and throw a sack into
the sleigh. Before Mr.. dickinson
could reach the car, the driver had
disappeared. Mr.. dickinson called
Officer Olson and the latter proceeded
to investigate, visiting the Hanson
home. Hanson, it appears, had not
finished putting up his horses for the
night. The officer saw sack of sug-
ar in the sleigh. The arrest followed
at two o'clock that morning, Sheriff
Kent and Officer Cleave Olson max
