NEW YORK, March e1.-A sec

stock market in the final hour, halt
ing a rally which had carried over
from the previous day and bringing
about net losses of 1 to points In
final quotations. The suddenness of
the decline led to a rather general
belief that 1t originated with pro-
fessional traders, who apparently
took advantage of the impaired tech

Manhattan Co. guaranteed and the

WHY THE LONG DETOUR2

Recruiting stretches of High
way No. l and preparing for paw
ing in places, a long detour has
been made from Sturgeon Lake
TO Cromwell and then over to
Carlton and Cloquet, getting
back onto Highway No. 1. This
makes the route from any place
i'm Pine county to the Twin Ports
at least 20 miles longer and many
are wondering why the detour
route did not leave No. l at
Sandstone. going along the G. N.
railway on the Elwell road which
will eventually be a part of the
Babcock trunk system. This is a
much shorter route TO the Twin
Ports. The narrow bridge over
Kettle river at Sandstone, where
it would be difficult il not impos-
sible, for a car to meet and pass
one Of the big BUSES may be one
of the reasons for not detouring
this way but with towns the size
Of Cloquet on the other route the
influence in that direction was
perhaps too strong.

WENT DOWN

The announcement comes from
st. Paul that the purchase of the
Farmers Terminal Packing plant
by the Cudahy Company of Chi
cago, has been followed by the
immediate employment of one
hundred men who are engaged in
putting the plant in order for
operation which will commence
before September 1. 1925.
The Farmers Terminal Packing
plant operated for a number of
years but finally under strong
competition was obliged to go
down. Cooperation can accom-
plish great things but the coop
erative spirit and the desire to
do something must be prevalent
especially when there are so
many to manage the affairs.
There is always some danger in
individual efforts the individual
with success becoming too pow
erful for one thing but there is
no getting away from the fact

OLD .BOSSYv ON TOP

So much has been written and
said about the wonderful egg pro-
duction at Barnum--its national
reputation as an egg center, that
it should be a model for other
communities, etc.---so one was
inclined to believe that folks up
in that thrifty little community
to the north, in Carlton county,
were engaged in practically moth
ing else but the raising of chick
ems and egg production. The
story even went out that the
banker was a chicken man" and
was occupied in egg production,
likely very true.
But when you come to look up
the figures it gives quite another
impression, for the good cream
produced by old "bossy' gave in
financial returns to the commune
ty for the month Of June more
than twice as much as was receiv-
ed through eggs. The Barnum
Creamery Company paid to Bar
mum farmers $11,768.12 for
cream delivered in June; to NAH
iowa and Atkinson farmers,
"a, 964.66. The amount paid the
Barnum farmers for eggs for the
same month was $5,S19.79 and
the Mahtowa-Atkinson farmers
81 ,960.70. The total amount paid
to farmers of the three commune
ties by the creamery for cream
was $l6.732.7S and for eggs
$7,7S0. Anyway with steady de-
pendable incomes like that.
whether the source be the chick
en- or the COW, ii is certain that
folks up there are not in need
and that they are enjoying pros
perity.

THERE Is EVIDENCE

Il find no evidence of immor-
tally" says Mr.. barrow of the
Scopes trial. He is mistaken
He does find evidence of immor.
tally. The best evidence is the
fact that all of us, including Oar.
row, long for immortality, and
instinctively believe in it.
Nature and Providence do not
deceive or mock us. If immor.
tality were not our destiny, we
should not all be speaking of il
and desiring it.

There are many things that the

the rest of us do not understand.

The Askov orchestra of IL

The Concert.
From all appearances the en-
tire program last night by the
band, glee club and orchestra
was well received. of the band
numbers the cornet solo by Sig
ward Sorensen and the piccolo
solo by Albert Sorensen were
especially well rendered and both
responded to encores. Miss
Helen Hansen rendered the two
piano solos in an able manner and
responded to an encore
The glee club, under the di-
rection of Rex Truman, did very
well and it is noticeable that
there is marked Improvement in
their singing every time they
appear. For the short time they
have been organized-only a few
weeks-they are doing remark
ably well. The voices seemed to
blend better last night than on
former occasions.
The orchestra ended last
nights program by playing five
selections Out of III instru-
ments the six are string in
struments which makes it more
in the shape of symphony or
chestra arrangement. Of the
others there is one clarinet, flute,
cornet and two trombones-one
of the latter playing the cello
parts.
Balance of Week.
Tonight Thursday the con-
cert will be repeated and tomor-

will be the showing of the play,

though why there were so many

DOES NOT THINK
 WHEELER SENT !. ANY TELEGRAM

GREAT FALLS, April 22.-Richard Haste, former secretary to Wheeler, testified his disbelief that Wheeler sent telegram reading, Have al ready discussed the permit with so- licitor," which Campbell claims to have received.

OLDTIMER MEETS HORRIBLE END
 LONELY CABIN

KANATAK, April 21.-NIike Thomp- son, an old and respected resident of the Alaska peninsula, was found dead in his cabin on Dog Salmon river last week. The investigation conducted by a deputy marshal showed that he had frozen to death. The body, clothed in a parka, was lying across the bed, the weight resting on his knees and ell bows, muscles rigid and tensed, show ing the intense suffering endured as the end came. Fox skins were wrap ped around his feet and hands, and one was also wrapped about the body. Removing these, his hands and feet were found to have been frozen and badly mortified, the flesh peeling off before he died. A bald spot on top of the head had also been frozen.
 Thompson had built a fire in his cabin, but his wood was all gone. He had an oil burner on top of a box, but it was empty, as we'll as his kerosene can. A nut closing the opening of the perhaps his last attempt to secure the life-saving heat With feet and hands in such condition he could not cut any wood, so was forced to await the in evitable end, with perhaps no short cuts available.
 After building fire his feet and hands had thawed out, and the end to his suffering came when his fuel gave out.
 Thompson's dogs were chained up outside the cabin, so it is presumed that he was out on a short trap line near his cabin, and was caught in one of the blizzards with extreme low temperatures which prevailed recently for several days, in a barren, desc late country, devoid of land marks, missing his way and perhaps remain ing out all night Or he may have fallen in an overflow. Arriving home he was not able to hitch his dogs to the sled and drive to his nearest neighbor's, or perhaps unable to force them to. face the intense blizzard.
 Thompson was we'll known on the peninsula, and his untimely end is deplored by his many friends in this section.
