INSPECTION IGNORED;
FRUIT GROWERS FINED

Ten fruit growers of the state
were convicted recently of selling
berry plants which could not pass
inspection on account of disease, re-
port officials Of the nursery inspec-
ton department at University Farm.
Violation of the state nursery inspec-
ton law is misdemeanor punishable
by fine or Imprisonment. The ar
rests were made in the vicinity of
Aitkin, Cokato, Deerwood, Excelsior,
Fairmont, and Howard Lake. The
state law requires inspection Of all
berry plants and other nursery stock
before sales are permitted. The fee
for this service ranges from $40 to
$25 each year, depending on the
kind of stock inspected. Certificates
are issued to growers whose stock
is found free from disease. There is
no fee for inspection of small lots of
strawberry plants and herbaceous
perennials when sold locally without
shipping or advertising. In Mime
sofa the plants Of approximately 400
nurserymen and growers have been
state inspected and found free from
disease. To make sure they are get
ting only healthy plants purchasers
should request the grower to show
his certificate of inspection. Further
information concerning the state law
may be obtained by writing to the
Division of Nursery Inspection, State
Department of Agriculture, Univer-
sity Farm, st. Paul.

June %. 1884 rumor was In cir
culation throughout the city today that
an ''omnibusload of SecesherS" had ar
rived here. and many loyal citizens were
at first disturbed and then much re-
lieved when another report was circu-
lated that the enemy" had been CAP
tured. What really happened was this:
number of omnibus drivers, deter
mined to have a holiday, made up q
party. hired a large omnibus and six
horse team. and took drive out of the
city yesterday. To make things all right
as they went happily along, they took
a smile or two at every place where
whisky could be had Before they start
ed home they were pretty we'll done for
Their merriment ended in a fight in
the omnibus. Thereupon the whole
party was taken into custody by the
mounted police of the county precinct
and brought into the city. They at
tracted much attention as they passed
through the streets In the big omnibus
under mounted guard
Upon hearing. 1t appeared that
Thomas j. Stoddard had committed an
assault and battery on Richard Carter.
Justice johnson held Stoddard to bail
for court in 1855 and dismissed all the
other merrymakers. This ended the ru-
NOR about captured load Of "secesh-
ers"
Indications that come to Washington
show that President Lincoln's compen-
stated emancipation policy is gaining
favor In the border States. In MARYLAND
the drift of public sentiment is unmis-
taxable. Gov. Hicks. Reverdy john
son. Senator Sellman of Anne Arundel
and a number of other leading public
men OF the State are avowed and ac-
tive advocates of prompt action on the
part Of the State to carry out the
emancipation scheme Of the President.
1t is becoming generally admitted
that in view Of the growing worthless
ness Of slave property in Maryland. the
Shareholders as measure of Self-pro-
lection, must avail themselves of the
proposition OF the President and Con-
gress for compensated emancipation. In
Baltimore the precarious condition of
the institution Is freely admitted by the
public journals. At Port Tobacco, Up
per Marlboro and other nearby Mary
land towns the newspapers are occu-
pied with the subject of deprecated
slave values.
The War Department. 1t was learned
today. has directed that loyal citizens
who may be found, through false accu-
sationS or mistakes. among Confederate
prisoners of war. may lay their cases
before the commisSary general. who
will submit them to the adjutant gen.
eral Of the Army.

Exposure in France.

A Minnesota reader who believes In
taking cold from drafts, wet feet, ex.
posure and so forth, writes:
DR.. Brady is sometimes witty and
sometimes tart. In communication
from q Mrs. Anna B. to DR.. Brady the
lady suggested that he put on some wet
socks and wet shoes and stand out and
wait for q street car for half an hour
on cold day and see If he wouldn't
catch cold. In DR.. Brady's answer he
offers to settle the doubt in Mrs. e. IS
mind on wager Of $1,000. It looks to
me that when DR.. Brady says that ex-
posture does not cause cold he is making
a misstatement. and all the more so
when the only answer he gives Is an
offer of wager of $1,000. He SAYS
there is no evidence that our troops in
France were more resistant to disease
than ordinary folk back home. ! wish
that he would let us know why the
troops we're given careful physical train
ing, and why they were inoculated with
the virus of typhoid and other diseases
before they went to France. And why
does he advocate fresh air on the
hoof' II a condition Of good health Is
not essential to resist disease?"
Ny dear friend, you misjudge me
terribly. I never offered . thousand
dollar wager with the lady. She pro-
posed that I do q ridiculous thing. I
know perfectly well that the only result
to me would be that should make
myself ridiculous. It would not make
a particle of difference to the old fogies

sired illness. They'd go right on hug

However, I could not give the lady q
categorical refusal. so offered TO make

manner II the lady or her friends would
promise to pay 81 200 TO some worthy

smiling and mean side UP. That was
no wager. It was certainty. So the
lady retired from the field.
As for our troops In France. OF course
they had no more resistance than ordi-
nary folk have. The physical training
was to enable them to do the strenuous
work Of soldiers. and no one has ever
shown that good physical training rem
ders an individual more immune 70 any
known disease. The soldiers were i'm
nunized against typhoid fever, paraty-
phoid and smallpox because We knew
that, irrespective Of physical training,

Gloves With Sleeveless Frocks
BY MARY MARSHALL.

Now that sleeveless frocks have been
revived comes the question Of appro-
pirate gloves To the Frenchwomen
there never has been anything incon-
gruous about bare arms and wrist
length gloves. Even before women
adopted the fashion children as q mat
ter Of course wore little white cotton
gloves with short-sleeved or sleeveless
frocks and suits. It was one of the
things that Americans In Paris always
considered especially amusing.
We are much more apt to let our
children 20 entirely gloveless in this
country, and many women. too, wear
gloves reluctantly once warm weather
has come. Still there Is q certain adj
vantage to be gained from wearing
gloves with the formal afternoon frock.
and this season you may follow the
French fashion and wear short gloves
or conform to American taste and
wear longer gloves. Incidentally, q
good many Frenchwomen are wearing
these longer gloves with their sleeveless
frocks this season. Unless your arms
are very nearly perfect the longer
gloves are better.
For the afternoon frock with short
sleeves or no sleeves at all you may
choose suede gloves. II your stockings
are fiesh-colored. then choose fiesh-col-
ored gloves. II the color scheme of
your ensemble Is best served with light
gray stockings, then light gray suede
gloves may be chosen. For evening or
with the white afternoon ensemble,
pure white suede gloves are chosen in
the event that you choose to wear
gloves in the evening. Some women
choose silk gloves-though for formal
evening wear the suede would be better.
Bracelets seem to be as popular as
ever, though many women, instead Of
wearing q number Of narrow bands and
links. wear q single very wide bracelet
or armlet. And some women wear
these bracelets over their gloves.
Pleated skirts are decidedly smart
either with the silk overblouse or knit
ted slip-on sweater. To procure q per-
feet adjustment 1t is best to have this
skirt mounted on . slip top. This
