FROST IN NORTHWEST
Minnesota. Michigan And Wisconsin
Affected-COrr i'm Southern Min.
neSOta Damaged.

Chicago, Sept. 10.-Damage by
frost in Minnesota, Michigan and
Wisconsin last night was not of dis
astrous character, except as it affec-
ted corn in Southern Minnesota. it
was said here today by experts.
Southern Minnesota of recent
years has increased her corn produc-
ton considerably. The crop was
three weeks late and the frost three
weeks early, and this caught the GER
cal full of moisture
Damage to garden truck, it was
said, will not be enough to figure
much in Mr.. Hoover's calculations.
The potato crop, of which both States
are heavy producers, is too near ma
turity TO suffer much.
In Michigan the frost extended as
FAR south as Grand Rapids 1t was
predicted that the frost belt would
reach Central Illinois tonight. but it
was doubted whether it would be OF
killing severity south of the Great
Lakes.
The corn market was affected by
the prediction of the blight for Hi
nois ana Iowa, which are important
corn States. May corn, which closed

His Eye

Don't try to trick your Uncle Sam
BY your devices sly,
Because he haps to have himself
a keen and eagle eye,
And when he fixes it upon
Men who will watching bear.
They're in a way to be found out,
If they don't have care.
He doesn't go round making boasts
OF all that he can do.
Or Dragging of what he has done,
And swearing it is true;
No. rather works he silently
Until his work is done,
When out he comes with the result
And then there comes some fun.
These foreign agents think that he
Is quite an easy prey;
That meath his unSuSpiciouS nose
They can have clever way;
But all the time he's noting them,
But gives not word or sign,
Until the train is ready laid
Then he eXplodes the mine.

RECEPTION TO TEACHERS
AT THE PARISH HOUSE
Teachers of Cambridge Entertain mt
Unique Affair in Honor of The
Teachers of The County Attending
Institute.

One of the most attractive and
novel receptions ever held in this
city was given last night at the Par
ish House of Christ p. f. Church, by
the Cambridge teachers, in compll.
ment to the teachers of the county,
who are in town this week attending
| the sessions of the Teachers Insti-
tute at the Cambridge Academy
| There was large crowd present and
| everyone seemed TO thoroughly en-
joy the occasion.
Each speaker was introduced by a
college song. which had some local
touch. The address of welcome was
| made by Superintendent of Public
Schools James B. Noble Miss Nellie
| Shackelford sang Hail America, a"
with The Gar is Making War" as
an encore. Misses Nellie Medley and
| Margaret Matthews presided at the
piano.
| One of the most interesting fea-
| lures of the evening was the poem,
composed and read by Miss Olive
Ruark, which follows:
Look around our good old town,
The people here, we see.
Why, we say. all this renown?
o, now, what can it be?
There's big one. here's a small,
This ones young and that ones
old;
There's a short one, here's a tall

With pens and ink, Ito boot"
Where do they go? We say, with vim,
To Teachers Institute
There to refresh their empty brains,
To learn the newest way
OF teaching losses, discount, gains,
And interest by the day.
To cram in number facts, galore,
To find out why it is
Tom cannot learn the table four, 3"
And Ruth fiunks every quiz"
Professors there, with stately walk,
And men of much repute,
Just talk and talk, and talk and talk,
At Teachers Institute.
They say that when year or two

And lectures, evermore,
While notes from greatest master

Are piled up at, your door.
But not one task We'll try TO shun,
Each one we'll try to suit,
For there is fun. as well as work.

REPUBLICANS HAVING
RED HOT PRIMARY FIGHT
Andrews Seems Likely to Beat Phil
Senator-Dcmocrat Nominations
For Treasurer And Sheriff i'll
Doubt.

What seems likely to be the Los
est primary fight that has been wag-
ed since the passage of the present
Primary Election Law is being
! Waged between the two factions of
the Republican party today. For
mer States Attorney William n An
drews is pitted against Edward S.
Phillips, Esq. for the nomination for
State Senator, and. at three-thirty
O'Clock all of the signs seemed TO in
dictate that Mr.. Andrews would be
the victor. At two O'Clock about
250 votes had been cast in the West
End precinct, and the friends of Mr..
Andrews claimed that he had con-
siderable majority of the Republican
votes; in the First precinct, known
as the East Cambridge ward, about
| 100 votes had been cast at three
| O'Clock, and the friends OF Mr.. An
drews We're confident that he was
| considerably in the lead he having
| put in much of his time there. In
| the uptown precinct. the colOred
ward, where there is the heaviest
vote. at three o'clock only about 200
votes had been cast, and of these ii
Was generally conceded by those IA
miliar with the situation that Mr..
Andrews was far in the lead.
On the Democratic side there is a
contest for the nomination for Coun-
ty Treasurer between the present in
cumbent, Mr.. James X. Jones, and
Mr.. George \. Thompson. Jr.. of
Hurlock. With the indications of a
light vote, considerable uncertainty
has developed as to which of the
candidates will be the winner There
are three candidates for sheriff, for
mer Sheriff George F. Shrman, V. !
Murray Sulivane, and Wilbur r. Da-
shell; all of the candidates seem
confident and all are working hard
and the situation seems to be eX-
tremely close Friends of Mr.. Suli-
vane claim that he will carry the
First precinct by large majority,
and will also carry the Fourth
Friends of Mr.. Sherman claim that
he Will receive a Very large county
vote, his majority there being more
than sufficient TO offset any majority
that may be against him in Cam
bridge. Mr.. Dashiell, who was late
getting into the fight, claims to have
very strong backing in ali sections
of the county, and expects to carry
Cambridge by a gOodsized majority.
In the Democratic primaries Mes
SIS. Daniel b. Prettyman of Taylor's
Island, and William H. Mcguire, of
Madison, are pitted against each 9TH
er for the Senatorial nomination. but |
it is believed that Mr. Prettyman,
who has the backing of the organiza-
ton. will win easily.
