recollect that late last Saturday
afternoon you heard an explo-

That roar is the answer to HUI

Hubert had been commission

tank which leaked in the faucet.
Hubert had repaired such tanks
before. Accordingly, he opened
every vent in the receptacle to
allow escape of any gas which
had accumulated. He was aware
of that danger.
In due time Hubert thought it
was safe to go to work with SOL

new owner TAKES
Charge OF HOTEL
w. F. SANDERSON RELINQUISH-
ES PROPRIETORSHIP OF
THE PALMER HOUSE
ART DUBEAU NOW In CONTROL
MANY IMPROVEMENTS WILL BE
MADE IMMEDIATELY -PRO-
POSE. 2O-ROOM ADDITION

The Palmer House changed owner
ship and management ON Monday
morning, Art DuBeau, formerly of
Glenwood, taking over the control
from w. F. Sanderson. By the terms
of the deal Mr.. DuBeau acquires build
ing, lot and furnishings. He will give
his personal attention to the conduct
of the hosiery in the future and will
be assisted in the management by
Mrs. DuBeau.
The DuBeaus are experienced hotel
people and indicate from the begin
ming that they will give Sank Centre
a hotel second to none in cities of the
same size in the Northwest. Three
years ago they took over the old, run
down Minton Hotel at Glenwood, re-
made it into a cosy "home" for trav-
elers and caused it to pay for the first
time since it was built. They dispos-
ed of the property several months
ago.
They propose also to make many
changes in the Palmer. Work will be
commenced next week on installing
new plumbing throughout the build
ing. Every room will have. running
hot and cold water and twenty rooms
will be supplied with baths when the
plumbing is completed. All the rooms
will also be renovated and redecorated.
The new broom will be welded in
the kitchen and that department will
be open to the inspection of the pub
lie after May Is. Indirect lighting
will be installed in the lobby and din
ing room. The former will also be
made more comfortable and home-like
with rugs, leather rockers and a large
circular settee in the center of the
big room. Palms will add to the eff
feet.
Mr.. DuBeau is prepared to add 20
rooms to the present structure. He
has already purchased his plumbing
material for such an addition and will
build this summer if requirements de-
mand. The improvement will be made
next spring in any event.
To assist them in the management
the DuBeaus have engaged Julian
Parker of this city as day clerk and
George Volmer of Monticello as night
clerk. Both are experienced hotel
men and acquainted with the travelling
public. The kitchen will be in charge
of chef brought from Glenwood by
the DuBeaus.
w. F. Sanderson, who retires from
the Palmer, has purchased the Hotel
Owatonna at Owatonna, Mimi, Is
room house with fifteen rooms with
baths. Owatonna has a population OF
about 1000. Mr.. Sanderson says he
will expend $4,000 in improvements
which will make the hosiery rank
with the best in Southern Minnesota
He takes possession of the property on
May 10. Fred C. Johnson, who has
been day clerk at the Palmer, will re-
main with Mr.. Sanderson in the ca
pacity of manager of his new bust
ness. Mr.. and Mrs. Sanderson and

FIND THE QUALITY OF EGGS
Cornell Agricultural Experiment Sta
tion Recommends Gambling as
the Best Method.

The quality OF eggs depends not al
together upon the length of time they
have been kept, but quite as much
upon the conditions to which they
have been subjected between the time
OF laying and Of their final u3e. More
over, the quality OF an egg may be af-
fected TO some extent by the foods
eaten by the hen which lays 1t, and
possibly by the season of the year
when II is laid.
All these points and many others
are discussed in a bulletin on the in.
terror quality of market eggs, issued
by the Cornell agricultural exeri-
ment station, which explains the proc.
ess of egg production and the struc.
ture OF the normal egg. II tells also
how the interior quality of market
eggs may be studied and advocates
Gambling as the best method. 1t gives
directions for Gambling and instruc-
tions for making candling devices.
