ART EXHIBIT AT
ST, PAUL PLANNED

St. Paul Feb. 25.-The st. Paul
institute has announced definite plans
for its presentation of the second an.
nual exhibition of the work Of the ar.
fists of the northwest. The exhibition
will open at the st. Paul auditorium
on Saturday, March 4, 1915 and close
on Wednesday, March IL.
The first northwestern artists ex.
hibition was held In May, 1915, and
met with extraordinary success. 1t
was one of the most notable and sig.
nificant events of the art history ,of
Minnesota and the surrounding states
To quote the words of man promtn'
ent in the public affairs Of Minneapolis
the St. Paul institute undertook to
supply "a stimulus to the ambitious
artists necessarily isolated and e.
morselessly excluded from the eastern
exhibitions, which will be invaluable
in the development of whatever talent
may exist out here" Besides encour.
aging artistic talent, the exhibition
cannot help but foster on the part OF
the public greater appreciation OF
art in this section of the country, and
a demand for the work of northWes'
tern artists.
The st. Paul institute has sent out
invitations to all artists in Minnesota,
Wisconsin, Iowa, Nebraska North and
South Dakota and Montana to submit
works in oil, pastel, water colors,
sculpture and etching.

WABASH RAILWAY.
OWNERSHIP OF RAIL
PROPERTY DECIDED

Des Moines, Feb. 24-The Des Moines
Union Railway Co. and not the Chicago
Milwaukee and st. Paul and the Wa
bash railroads, is the owner Of the rail
road belt line around this city and the
Des Moines union station, and Is en-
titled to 100000 accumulated profits
according to decision handed down In
the u. S. district court here today by
Judge M. j. Wade.
The 100000 profits have accumulated
since 1888, when Fred M .Hdbbell and
his sons Of Des Moines, principal stock
holders in the Des Moines Union COM
pany, claims the Des Moines Union OBJ
tanned control Of the belt line and sta
ton properties.
The Wabash and Milwaukee roads
charged that the Des Moines Union
company was only a trusteeship for the
handling Of the property, and as such
was not entitled to share in the profits
Under the terms of the decision the
Wabash and Milwaukee railroads can
continue to use the properties by pay
ing reasonable rate. ..-..
Suit was begun in 1907 and testimony
was taken in 1913 before the late Judge
Mcpherson. Judge McPhersons death
delayed the decision. The suit was
brought by the railroads.

PROHIBITION HELPING
COLORADO, SAYS B0Ak

Prohibition in Colorado has proved
conclusively that the legalized traf-
fic in intoxicating liquors can be
abolished without even temporary
business depression, according to /. /.
Boak, head consul of the Woodmen
of the World and president of the
National Fraternal Congress of Am
erica.
Mr.. Boak said yesterday that hotels
and summer resorts, which expected
to be hit hard, are doing larger bus
mess in Colorado than before the IL
.quor traffic was barred from the
state. Colorado had nearly 1000 sa-
looms at the end of 1915, when the
dry law went into effect.
National banks and savings banks
in Colorado cities gained in deposits
within month after the state went
dry, says the head consul. There has
been an increased demand for office
space. Fewer mortgages have been
foreclesed. Fewer families are ap-
plying to charity organizations for
help and with the going of the sa-
loon has gone also the habitual Grim.
inal from the state.

Circuit Judge Ashford on Wednes-
day overruled the demurrer of the
defendants in the case1of Emma For.
syth Rumsey against the New York
Life Insurance Company and Benson,
Smith & Company, a suit involving a
life insurance policy OF $1,000. The
defendants have 20 days in. which to
answer the plaintiffsscomplaint.
According to the complaint, the pol
icy was taken out by Rumsey, now
deceased, while in the employ of Ben
son, Smith & Company, and made pay
able to that company. It lis ayerred
that, when he left the employ of the
company he endeavored to have the
policy changed to make his wife the
beneficiary, but was unable to do SO.
Mrs. Rumsey brought the initial suit
to recover the policy INF Colorado, but
the action was dismissed On the
ground that the court had no jurisdic-
ton. Later, Benson, Smith & Com
pany brought suit against the life in
surance. company and received judg-
ment in the sum of $4,000, it is re-
ported. .>.s. ID. - =. 4 q.
