"WOMEN IN BUSINESS" _ Interesting Literary Program at Morjilnur Session. The literary program of the morning on "Women in Business" waa delayed on account of the car blockade, and for this reason had only a small audience, j The program was provided by the Business Women's Club of Minneapolis. Miss Martha Scott Anderson presided in place of the club president, Miss Jennie ScM fer, and read her review of the recent convention of the National Association of Business Women, showing the salient points of such as both advantageous and the reverse. It was pointed out that the cafe feature seemed essential to success, even though the financial management of a cafe offers many difficulties that have not yet been successfully Bolved by all of the associations. Miss Elizabeth Liscomb. a charter mem ber of the Minneapolis Club, gave a his tory of that organization, showing how it had felt its way to comparative success, trying all things that seemed promising and sifting out those not feasible or ac ceptable. Miss Anderson answered ques tions on the work of the club and brought out a few of the points of advantage ob tained by associations of business women. Two piano solos were furnished by Miss Bessie Godkin of St. Paul. HEREFORDS SOLD WELL Mlhh Wilkinson of Crookston Paid $1,000 for Two Fine Ones. Hereford cattle seem to be favorites with Minnesota breeders. Two were sold to Miss Mary A. Wilkinson of Crooks ton, for $500 each this morning. Miss ! Wilkinson was loudly cheered by the big crowd in the tent when she overtopped the best bids of her men competitors. The animals she secured were Cornelia, 102,536, and Modest Bean Real 11., both from Em poria, Kan., They outrank all the other animals at the sale, the best previous price being $400. Colonel Woods had a much easier time to-day than yesterday for the bidding was more spirited and the offers more liberal While 'the average price yesterday was $201, the average pric to-day was $225. Young Bossies Favorites. . Heifers were the favorites, the average being $247.75, while the lordly bulls com : manded only $177.50. The prices for the present Hereford sale are about $15 bet ter than last year, making the sale a re markably successful one. The total amount realized to-day was $8,320, which with the $6,485 yesterday makes the grand total $14,805. All the animals sold have gone to Minnesota, lowa, North Dakota and South Dakota. Among the Minnesota breeders who in vested to-day were the following: John Hay ton, Hewitt, Miss Mary A. Wil kinson, Crookston, three animals; L. E. ■ Potter, Springfield, F. R. Hubacheck, Minneapolis, two animals; Dan Peterson, Sherburne; W. H. Matthews. Adrian; R. A. Wilkinson, Crookston, Minn.; Lewis Rileson, Tracy; S. S. Ellsworth, Cannon Falls; E. J. Delana, Edgerton; Adolph Ceska, Albany. - In the big cattle tent the judges were Judging Herefords and Short Horns. With many farmers this is the most entertain ing feature of the fair, as it brings to gether the finest specimens on exhibition in such a way that their points can be compared. For this reason the big show tent is always crowded. WANTS THE \E\YSBOYS' BAND An Interstate Fair Representative Here After Attractions. C. S. Van Auken, secretary of the inter state fair to be held at La Crosse, Wis., Sept. 24-27 was at the fair yesterday and secured for his fair the attendance of a number of the best exhibits including prize winning poultry and fat stock. Some of the "midway" attractions were also in duced to take in La Crosse. He anounced \ that he would have The Journal- Newsboys' ! Band there if he had nothing else. He .: had heard of them at Buffalo and t Milwau kee and as a drawing card he figured that the "newsies" and their music would be the big hit of his show. Wild Man Got Loose. There was a wild time on Midway this morning when the wild man of Borneo broke loose and tore through the crowds with a bone in his teeth. Uncle Josh, from down the river, took to the woods, and the women and children in amusement row did some tall yelling. The wild man was finally lassoed ■ by one of his keepers and towed back to the _ - retreat at, the lower end of Midway. The crowd followed and one of the hits of the day had been scored by the manager. ■ Crookston's Great Band. The Crookston band gave a delightful sere nade in front of the Journal building last evening. The music was inspiring, well played and drew an appreciative audieiHo. Guests of the Fair Officials. , ' Inmates of the institution for the feeble minded at Faribault to the number of eighty seven were the guests of the state fair man agement to-day. They arrived on one of the early trains and spent the entire day in viewing the show, in charge of Dr. A C Rodgers, superintendent of the school, and Miss Woods, matron. j. KING! THROAT IS BAD EDWARD FEARS HE HAS CANCER Doctors Reassure Him, but the Throat Is Certainly in ; Bad Condition. ' ! London, Sept. 5. —Distressing rumors about the king's health have been in the air for many weeks, but it has not been possible to separate the wheat from the chaff. The most trustworthy account re ceived from those in touch with the court leaves little ground for doubt that the king has been nervous about the con dition of his throat and suspicious that his sister's fate might be in store for . him. Specialists have examined his throat while he has been at Homburg and they have confirmed the previous diagnosis that there is no evidence of cancer. There is, however, some disease of the throat which requires constant watching and treat ment. Informants state that the king has been warned against any mental excite . ment and that, his medical advisers ob jected strongly to his going to his sister's death-bed on .the ground that the emo tion and intensity of his grief would be dangerous. There is a court theory that while the king's throat is not now in a cancerous state, it may become so under the influ ence of menial depression and excitement This foreboding doubtless reflects the pes simism pervading England in all matters. No alarmist at the court suggests that the coronation will be interrupted by a decline in the king's health. HEALTHY SCHOOLMA'AM. Pound Out How to Feed Herself. Many school teachers, at the end of their year's work, feel thoroughly ex hausted and worn out, physically and mentally. The demand upon the nerves and brain of a teacher is unusual and un less they are well fed and fed upon prop erly selected food, it is natural that they should run down. A little woman teacher at Gobleville, Mich., who has been teaching regularly for a number of years, has always found herself thoroughly exhausted at the end of the session, until within the last year she has made use of Grape-Nuts Pood with the result that she closed the year as a robust, healthy, strong, vigorous woman having gained in weight from 90 pounds to 126; her nerves strong, face bright and cheery, and really a wonder to all her friends, who constantly comment en her color and strength. She knows ex actly to what the change is attributed, for in the years past, living on ordinary food, she has almost broken down before the school year closed, whereas since using Grape-Nutß, this change has been brought about; evidence prima facie of the value of Grape-Nuts Food for rebuilding the brain and nerve centers. The name of the teacher can be given by the Postum Cereal Co., Ltd., Battle Oreek, Mich- WISE WORDS FROM THE PRESIDENT Continued From First Pave. years of toil and struggle, in which every part of the country has its stake, which will not permit of either neglect or of undue selfishness. Reciprocity Favored. No narrow, sordid policy will subserve it. The greatest skill and wisdom on the part of the manufacturers and producers will be required to hold and increase it. Our indus trial enterprises, which have grown to such great proportions, affect the homes and oc cupations of the people and the welfare of the country. Our capacity to produce has developed so enormously and our products have so multiplied, that the problem of more markets requires our urgent and immediate attention. Only a broad and enlightened pol icy will keep what we have. No other policy will get mora. In these times of marvelous business energy and gain we ought to be looking to the future, strengthening the weak places in our industrial and commercial sys tems, that we may be ready for any storm or strain. By sensible trade arrangements which will not Interrupt our home production we shall extend the outlets for our increasing sur- I plus. A system which provides a mutual exchange of commodities is manifestly essen tial to the continued healthful growth of our export trade. We must not repose in fancied security that we can forever sell everything and buy little or nothing. If such a thing were possible It would not be best for us or for those with whom we deal. We should take from our customers such of their pro ducts as we can use without harm to our in dustries and labor. Reciprocity is the nat ural outgrowth of our wonderful Industrial ' development under the domestic policy now ' firmly established. What we produce beyond j our domestic consumption must have a vent abroad. The excess must be relieved through a foreign outlet and we should sell every where we can and buy wherever the buying will enlarge our sales and productions, and thereby make a greater demand for home labor. : The period of exclusiveness is past. : : The expansion of our trade and com- : : merce is the pressing problem. Com- : : mercial wars are unprofitable. A : : policy of good will and friendly : : trade relations will prevent repri- : : sals. Reciprocity treaties are in : : harmony with the spirit of the : : times; measures of retaliation are : : not. If, perchance, some of our tar- : : iffs are no longer needed for revenue : : or to encourage and protect our in- : : dustries at home, why should they : : not be employed to extend and pro- : : mote our markets abroad? : Then, too, we have inadequate steamship service. New lines of steamers already have been put in commission between the Pacific coast ports of the United States and those on the western coasts of Mexico and Central and South America. These should be fol lowed up with direct steamship lines between the eastern coast of the United States and South American ports. One of the needs of the times is direct commercial lines from our vast fields of production to the fields of consumption that we have but barely touched. Next in advantage to having the thing to sell is to have the convenience to carry it to the buyer. : We must encourage our merchant : : marine. We must have more ships. : : They must be under the American : : flag, built and manned and owned : : by Americans. These will not only : : be profitable in a commercial sense; : : they will be messengers of peace and : : amity wherever they go. We must : : build the isthmian canal, which will : : unite the two oceans and give a : : straight line of water communica- : : tion with the western coasts of C€n- : : tral and South America and Mexico. : : The construction of a Pacific cable : : cannot be longer postponed. : In the furtherance of these objects of na tional interest and concern, you are perform ing an important part. This exposition would have touched the heart of that American statesman whose mind was ever alert and thought ever constant for a larger commerce and a truer fraternity of the repulbics of the New World. His broad American spirit is felt and manifested here. He needs no identification to an assemblage of Americans everywhere, for the name of Blame is in separable with the Pan-American movement, which finds this practical and substantial expression, and which we all hope will be firmly advanced by the Pan-American con gress that assembles this autumn in the capi tal of Mexico. The good work will go on. It cannot be stopped. These buildings will disappear; this creation of art and beauty and industry will perish from sight, but their influence will remain to— Make it live beyond its too short living, \v ith praises and thanksgiving. Who can tell the new thoughts that have been awakened, the ambitions fired and the high achievements that will be wrought through this exposition? Gentlemen, let us ever remember that our interest is in con cord, not conflict, and that our real eminence rests in the victories or peace, not those of war. We hope that all who are represented here may be moved to higher and nobler effort for their own and the world's good, and out of this city may come not only greater commerce and trade for us all, but more essential than these, relations of mu tual respect, confidence and friendship, which will deepen and endure. Our earnest prayer is that God will gra ciously vouchsafe prosperity, happiness and peace to all our neighbors and like blessings to all the peoples and powers of the earth. "Know a Good Thing." President McKinley's speech was fre quently interrupted with aplause, his words referring to the establishment of reciprocal treaties with other countries, the necessity of the American people building an isthmian canal and a Pacific cable and his reference to the work of Blame in developing the Pan-American idea bringing forth especially enthusiastic cheers. Upon the conclusion of his ad dress a large number broke through the lines and the president held an impromptu reception for fifteen minutes, shaking hands with thousands. The carriages were then brought to the steps of the stand and the president, ac companied by the diplomatic corps and specially invited guests, was taken to the stadium. When the president arrived at 11:45 that structure was- crowded. The troops stood at attention while the presi dent reviewed them. Cheer after cheer from the vast assemblage greeter the chief executive as he walked from one end of the tribune to the other and back to the reviewing stand. The troops then marched past the stand and performed intricate maneuvers for fifteen minutes. Mrs. McKinley left the stand at the conclusion of the speechmaking and was taken to the women's building where she was entertained by the woman managers. A committee representing the states hav ing exhibits in the horticulture building presented Mrs. McKinley two baskets of fruit, the choicest of the fine exhibits in that fine structure. Makes a Tour of Buildings. From the Stadium the president pro ceeded to the Canadian building, where he was met by the Canadian commissioners and viewed the Canadian exhibits. He next visited the agricultural building, where he was met by such foreign com missioners as have no buildings of their own but have exhibits. He visited in order the buildings of Honduras, Cuba, Chile, Mexico, Dominican republics, Porto Rico and Ecuador where he was received by the commisisoners of the respective countries. At 2 p. m. the president was entertained at luncheon by the New York state com mission in the New York state building. There were 200 guests, including the mem bers of the diplomatic corps, members of the cabinet, Judges, officers and other dis tinguished men. The remainder of the afternoon's program included an inspec tion of the government buildings and ex hibits, after which the president returned to the residence of Mr. Milburn for din ner. The president and Mrs. McKinley will visit the grounds this evening to view the illumination, and fireworks. MINNEAPOLIS DRY GOODS CO.

COLOSSAL BEQUEST Bat It Is Encnniltered "With an If and-But String. Special to The Journal. Chicago, Sept. s.—The Christian build era' union of Chicago rises from obscurity to more than local prominence by an nouncing thajt it will soon receive a be quest of $20,000,000. The doner, says the members, will be John R. Vandervoort of U. S. to Absorb England!! St. Petersburg, Sept. s.—The Russian press is displaying lively interest in the Venezuelan-Columbian squabble, though it cannot be asserted that all the news papers approach the subject intelligently. The Exchange Gazette, which probably has the largest circulation of any Russian newspaper, remarked that the United States were now preparing to "extend the Monroe doctrine to South America," and that England on account of her South African engagement, is unable to resist this expansion tendency. A writer in the Novoe Vremya considers the policy of the United States is to acquire a protectorate over England. America is deeply interested in the de velopment and the commerce of the British colonies,and will therefore, never conseat to the dismemberment of the British empire. This writr does not attempt to gay when the protectorate will be an actuality, but is sure it is coming. Suicide Before Her Guests New York, Sept. s.—The climax to a dinner party given by Mr. and Mrs. Albert K. Peters at their home in this city came last night, when Mrs. Peters deliberately walked to the sideboard, filled a liquor 1 glass with carbolic acid, and facing her guests, drained the glass. Her action is said to have been brought on by a reproof from her husband before the rest of the party. After 1 she had drunk the poison and physicians were called, Mrs. ePters, who was only 26 years of age, begged the doctors to save her life. Everything possible was done, but she died a few hours afterVard. Banker Washes Pop Bottles Special to The Journal. Ortonville, Minn., Sept. 5.— R. H. Norrish, president of the Bank of Ortonville, to-day entered into a written contract with C. T. Lange, one of the proprietors of the Ortonville Bottling Works, to wash bottles for a period of thirty days from date at $5 a day; to commence work regularly at 7 a. m. each day and work ten hours. Under the contract Mr. Norrish agrees to work out the entife thirty days or forfeit the sum of $150 in cash. Mr. Norrlsh commenced work this mortoing at the pop factory sink washing bottles, easily keeping the machinery and crew supplied with clean empty bottles. This peculiar contract grew out of some disparaging remarks by Mr. Laage as to Mr". Norrish's ability and desire to work- THE MINNEAPOLIS JOURNAL. Plalnsfleld, N. V., one of many claimants to the famous Jumel estate in New York city, but himself as unknown to fame heretofore as the organization. All that can possibly prevent the union profiting from Mr. Vandervort's offer is the sus picion that the money he promises must first be obtained through litigation and that the prospective doner expects twenty-five of the local Christian 'builders to furnish him with $1,000 each, for what purpose is only vaguely designated.

MUEARY RETURNS HE VISITS THE PAN-AMERICAN The Second District Man Much In terested In Mike Dowlluu's . ' v ■ Latest Move. Special to The Journal. Buffalo, N. V., Sept. s.—James T. Mc- Cleary, second district congressman from Minnesota, paid the Pan-American Expo sition a brief visit this week, arriving Monday. Mr. McCleary has just returned from an extended visit to Europe, having left home in June and traveled in ten for eign countries. \ On the Pan-American Mr. McCleary had nothing but praise to be stow, and as to Minnesota's share in it, he was enthusiastic. With the congress | man were his family, and all seemed de lighted with the exposition. Mr. Mc- Cleary's stay will be of but a few days' duration,' when he expects to return home. Personally he has not looked better in years and seems a little stouter than when he left for the European trip. All of the party enjoyed the best of health while away. Much has transpired in Minnesota since Mr. McCle^y, left, and he seemed greatly shocked over R. G. Evans' sudden death and somewhat interested in the announce ment that Mike Dowling had filed a dec laration of his intention to run for con gress, with the secretary of state. The point which particularly interested him was whether the earliest filer of a dec laration was to have his name appear first on the primary ticket or not. ;,'.;'X;: FORSYTH 0. K.

The following statement of the character of the reply was made at the department: Captain Forsyth, while coming east, was detained over Saturday at Kansas City, Mo. He declined to talk with a reporter. It seems, however, that he fell into private conversation with some person in the notel, with no idea that what he said would be used in any form. His remarks were distorted and were used to form the substance of the alleged interview. Captain Forsyth has made such disclaimer and has so frankly avowed his deep regret at any indiscretion in the premises that the department is satisfied there was no intention on his part of vio lating the order of the department to refrain from public statement. No action will be taken by the department further than to inform Captain Forsyth that his explanation is satisfactory and that the incident will not b« treated as affecting his excellent record.
