LET SHIPPERS REFUSE
WAY TO STOP DOCKAGB CHARGES
Charlea Fox. London. Manager of
Pillsbury-Wasliliurn Co. Offers
a Solution.
Charles Fox, the London manager and
foreign representative of the Pillsbury-
Washburn company, Is in the city as the
guest of General Manager Henry L. Lit
tle. He says that the American shippers
alone have the power to do away with
the London dock charges on American
flour. This Is his statement:
The steamship companies insert in their
bills of lading a clause which provides for the
payment of 42 cents per ton for dockage at
London. This is in addition to other charges
such aa those for unloading and storage, and
American flour only is subjected to it. The
importer is compelled to pay the charge and
add it to the price of his flour, which places
the American product at a disadvantage with
the flour Imported from other countries. Tho
Importers have objected to this charge and
it i 3 now "up to the shipper" to force the
reform. American shippers should refuse to
accept a bill of lading containing this clause
or to consign their flour on such terms.
The Yankee Invasion of foreign markets
has only begun. We have big opportunities
ahead of us, and T?e must take advantage of
them. The people of the United Kingdom
have a friendly feelinig for us, which will
greatly assist us in securing trade there.
As a people we should do less boasting and
conduct our campaign for trade more quietly
la order to be the most successful.

CARLSON MAY DIE
He Is Dangerously Cut in a Second
Street Saloon.
JOHN JOHNSON IS UNDER ARREST
None Saw the Cutting? Done, but Ir
cumstuuees Point to His
Guilt.
In a saloon row at 128 Second street 8 j
yesterday afternoon, Claus W. Carlson i
was stabbed in the left side of the ab- '
domen, and is lingering at the city hos
pital in great pain. The wound was near
ly two inches long, and laid bare the j
viscera, which were replaced only after
enlarging the cut. It is not yet known j
whether the victim will survive. John j
Johnson was arrested charged with the I
assault.
Carlson is a jeweler in the employ of
Fiske Brothers, 17 Washington avenue S,
and Johnson, a shoemaker, employed by j
Charles Engler, 218 Washington avenue S. {
Both were in the saloon in the afternoon.
Johnson, according to the report to the \
police, was drunk, and had been abused in j
a jocular way for some time. He believed |
his companions were going to "harm him, i
and is said to have declared to Herman j
Oland, 1229 Washington avenue S, that he
would kill the man who hit him, if he
could find him. Later he disappeared,
going into a rear room of the saloon. Re
appearing again in a few minutes, he
staggered up to the bar, brandishing a
pocket knife, the long blade of which was
covered with, blood. There had been no
outcry, but just before Johnson left the
saloon, Carlson walked unsteadily
through the barroom, the wound bleeding j
' profusely. He went to a drug store at |
First avenue S and Washington, three j
blocks away. There his wound was hur- j
riedly dressed and the victim was sent i
to the hospital in the patrol wagon. Two
hours later Johnson was arrested in a
room at 529 Washington avenue S. He
i was identified as the man who nourished
the bloody knife.
SIR KNIGHTS" CHRISTMAS
Minneapolis Knights Templars Ob-
served, the Day.
The Minneapolis Mounted Commandery,
Knights Templars observed Christmas in
a most enjoyable manner in Masonic Tem
ple. Eminent Sir Knight C. W. Drew con
ducted ritualistic services, assisted by his
staff. Those present took a deep inter
est in the proceedings. Toasts to the
grand commander were responded to by
telegraph. Sir Knight C. G. Laybourne
gave the opening address on "The Day
We Reverence." The toast, "Our Guests,"
was responded to by Sir Knight T. F.
Quinby; "The Grand Commandery of Min
nesota," by Eminent Sir Kilvington; "Our

Knight John >H. Steele; "The Ladies," by
Eminent Sir F. V. Brown.
Impressive ceremonies were conducted
on the sixth floor of Masonic Temple,
where Zion Commandery, iXo. 2, drank the
universal toast to the grand master. "On
ward Christian Soldiers" was sung by the
commandery as it marched from its ar
mory. A prayer by the prelate opened
the ceremonies in the hall. After hear
ing the grand master's response the fol
lowing responded to toasts:

Are Represented.
One of the features in connection with
the Minnesota Educational association
meeting which began in St. Paul to-day,
is the extensive exhibit of industrial arts
in charge of the Woman's Civic League of
St. Paul. The exhibit was ready yester
day andi occupied two floors of the Seventh
street portion of the Ryan annex, and the
space is ample to show all the depart
monts to advantage and to accommodate

crowds of people both for lectures, demon
strations and the examination of the ex
hibits. The rooms are richly decorated
with rope pine, giving a holiday appear
ance which is heightened by the colored
shades over the lights.
The main portion of the exhibit Is the
collection of school work which was shown
at the Pan-American exposition and which
took a gold medal there. At Buffalo the
exhibit made an effective decoration for
the walls of the Minnesota building, but in
the rush and fatigue of the fair, com
paratively few felt inclined to study it as
carefully as it deserved and the oppor
tunity was not the best. In St. Paul all

this is changed; the Bpace is ample
not only to show what has been done but
to show by demonstration classes at work
that the same things can be duplicated and
are made in ordinary class work. The
central idea of the arrangement is to give
a working manual training exhibit from
the kindergarten through the technical
high school and the school of fine arts.
The finished products are arranged in
spacious booths around the walls of the
two big rooms. The chief portion of the
exhibits and all of the demonstrations will
be found on the fifth floor.

Garrity s Joke Didn't Work
"Tom" Garrity, attorney, who has a
reputation as a practical joker, had to
hire a simple, gullible colored boy to
"bite" on a little game he had put up on
him at considerable expense of ingenuity
and money. Thus it ihappens that the
story is on "Tom" instead of on "Bud."'
"Bud" is a porter in a barber shop in
the Oneida block. He is reputed to be
the most typical negro in the city, in more
than one respect. He is a religious man,
being a deacon in the Twenty-sixth street
African M. E. church, and has the tra
ditional Ethiopian fondness for water
melons and chickens.
"Tom" Garrity, whose boots "Bud" pol
ishes regularly, contrived Tuesday after
noon to have some fun with the "brush."
He made sundry attempts to procure a
live chicken, but, being unable to do ?o,
purchased a dressed fowl. This he took to
his office, and with exceeding care, packed
it in a box, wrapped it up well and tied
it securely. He then addressed it:
Mr. Henry Ricketts. Oneida 'Barber Shop,
Minneapolis—From the pastor of the Twenty
sixth Street 'M. E. church, with Christmas
greetings.
Summoning a few friends toy 'iphone,
Garrity planned to have a "good laugh"
when "Bud," whose name is Ricketts,
opened the package. Tho attorney and his
selected friends went into the shop in the
evening. A few moments later a mes
senger boy in livery arrived, and with a
good deal of unnecessary and unusual
ceremony, he delivered the box to "Bud."
The latter took it and inspected it with a
THE MINNEAPOLIS JOUKNAL.
A MORE VIGOROUS CAMPAIGN
Minnesota McKinley Memorial Committee Will
Enlist the Aid of the Newspapers.
The committee in charge of the work of
raising funds in Minnesota for the Mc-
Kinley memorial has decided to begin an
active newspaper campaign after the first
of the year. Up to noon to-day only a
trifle over $600 had been received at
state headquarters. While the commit
tee feels that this is a very poor show
ing, the small sum is explained by the
fact *hat no money was solicited until
shortly before the holidays, a time when
began this afternoon and will be in prog
ress all through the exhibition. Those
this afternoon were and those Saturday
morning will be chiefly grade work, while
to-morrow i>rominence will be given to
high school work. Talks on subjects close
ly allied to the exhibits will be given in
the small lecture hall adjoining the work
ing (exhibit. Down stairs the special
exhibits of the art schools, state institu
tions and rural schools are shown and in
this exhibition hall a large booth has been
arranged in which slides of model school
buildings and grounds, and vacation
schools and playgrounds will be shown at
frequent intervals by means of an electric
lantern.
The idea of a working industrial ex
hibit is in harmony with the principle
upon which manual training work is con
ducted in the St. Paul high school, that
of making things and learning by doing.
This largely eliminates model work

which teaches chiefly how things are made
not the actual making.
The demonstration work will all be
by St. Paul pupils, owing to the greater
ease in making the arrangements and the
lion's share of the exhibits illustrating
the course In manual training is from St.
Paul, as its Pan-American work has been
suplemented by more recent work.
Arranged by Grades.
The exhibit is arranged by grades, the
booths containing the kindergarten and
grade work being at either side of the
door —St. Paul on one side and Minne
apolis on the other, each occupying a
booth. The collection of work in drawing
from Minneapolis is very complete and
admirable, illustrating finely the work

i done in the schools. It is quite largely
color work from nature and contains ob
jects in all the grades from the first to
the high school. The showing of high
school work is not large and is placed with
that of the grades. In the drawing ex
hibit are included posters, book covers
and designs, as well as water colors.
There are two fine cases of baskets and
another of a great variety of weaving
done by the younger children.
The St. Paul grade booth has a large
and varied collection of weaving, baskets,
j sewing, clay modeling, paper cutting and
j drawing. Some examples of weaving—
! silk iiortieres made by first-grade chil
j dren—will doubtles excito much interest.
j The raffia weaving has taken many in
genious forms, of hats, umbrellas, etc. In
sewing, elaborately worked gingham cush
ion covers seem to be favorite pieces of
work. The work is not fine or close but
is effective and well done.
Mechanic Arts School Booths.
Coming to the high schools, the Mechan
ic Arts school occupies three large booths
with its work. In one, the walls are lined
with sheets of mechanical drawing prob-
show of great interest, his large eyes
growing larger still and his lips expanding
into a broad smile. Then he turned com
placently, put the box away in a closet
and returned to his work.
"Open it," cried Garrity, and his friends
chimed in with a similar request.
"Naw," replied "Bud" to their entreat
ies. "I guess it be a fine present an' I
don't want no one to see it but me."
Garrity requested him politely to let
him see the present, then his attitude
changed successively to entreaties, plead
ing, threats and vituperations. But un
availing. "Bud" was determined that it
was a private matter, and would not
liston.
Then Garrity went up to "Bud" and in
a confidential tone, intended to be secret
from his friends, offered "Bid" 50 cents
to disclose the contents cf the box. Tak
ing the 50 cents, the colored boy lead
Garrity into a back-room and there they
carefully unwrapped the package. "Bud"
was heartily surprised when he saw the
chicken.
"I don't believe th' preacher eber gib
me dat 'chicken," lie said to Garrity.
"Some one am playin' a joke on me. But
I bet you I keeps de bird."
"Show it to the boys," suggested the
attorney. Just then the crowd broke into
the room. "Bud" grabbed up the pack
age with great haste, ran out the rear
door, and did not stop until he was safe
at home with the chicken. "Tom" admits
that it was the "flattest" Joke lie ever at
tempted.
there are bo many demands upon the
purse.
After Jan. 1, however, the committee
expects to do much better and to this end
will enlist the newspapers in behalf of the
work. To-day subscriptions were re
ceived from the employes of C. Gotzian
& Co. of St. Paul; and from the men and
women employed at Kerr'a department
store in this city. In each case sub
scription lists were circulated among the
employes of he two houses named, and
the response was most gratifying.
lems, and in this are the modeling stands
with their partly finished clay figures
swathed in damp cloths. In the next booth
are the materials and appliances for cab
inet and forge work, with the smaller
pieces of work lining the walls. The
third booth illustrates applied design.
The walls are hung with working designs
in colors and posters. A large wall panel
of burlap has a stenciled pattern and
border in gold. There are some substan
tial black oak settles, pedestals, a re
volving book case and several very orig
inal and artistic screens.
One screen has the entire frame cov
ered with burlap, the edges being copper
bound. The brown burlap on one side is
stenciled in gold and the green of the
other is stenciled in brown. Another
screen with a heavy black oak frame has
a lotos design in greens on one side and
conventionalized pomegranate trees on a
gold background on the other side of the
panels. One of the most original designs
is in the archaic manner, showing a fleet
of ships under full sail, with clouds in
even blocks and little triangular wave
crests representing the sea. On one wall
of this room is hung some of the plaster
casts of the sculptured work. This is
chiefly in reliefs, although some are so
high as to be almost round.
A Complete Playhouse.
The Smith school of St. -Paul has a
booth all to itself, for without any appro
priation from the school board or any
special Instruction a regular course of
manual training has been carried on vol
untarily by the teachers and pupils. The
chief feature of the exhibit is a playhouse,
a substantially constructed story and a
half cottage, with all its finishing very
workmanlike and complete. It is fur
nished to the smallest detail by thework
of the pupils, with rugs, tables, chairs,
curtains, etc.. and in a bed room a tiny
pair of knitted slippers peeps out from un
der the bed. Framed pictures adorn the
wall, and the jardinieres and vases are
the pupils' work in pottery moulding and
decorating. The other exhibits include
handkerchiefs, . collars, sofa cushions,
crochetting and doll furniture.
Applied Biolosy Exhibit.
The St. Paul Central high school shows
some of its recently introduced work in
wood carving and an applied biology ex
hibit, also the appliances for work in in
dustrial chemistry.
Business training in the high school
has been introduced in St. Paul as an ex
periment and in one booth the work of
this course will be illustrated. A banking
business will be conducted and typewrit
ing will be done at all hours. The booth
is furnished with desks and ordinary of
fice furnishings. In this booth also Is
work illustrating commercial geography.
A Booth for Cooks.
Next to the business booth is the booth
devoted to the high school cooks and
seamstresses and their work. A large
kitchen cabinet with places for four to
work and having a gas stove occupies the
middLe of the floor. This will be used by
the demonstration classes. Around the
room are cabinets which will be filled
with samples of sewing and cooking and
standing about are sewing machines end
dress forms.
The Fine Art*.
The fine art schools of Minneapolis and
St. Paul have their Buffalo exhibits on the
fourth floor. That of the former is
especially strong in drawing and the lat
ter in decorative designs. The wall of
designs is rich in color as most of the
Nordica Buys Mississippi Pearls
The humble but industrious Mississippi
river clam appears to be breaking into the
best society. On her recent visit to
Minneapolis, Mme. Nordica whiled away
her spare time among the shops of the
city. The diva has had opportunity to
develop and indulge rather nice tastes in
gems and while looking over the assort
ment at Hudson's her attention was at
tracted by a tray of wonderfully lustrous
ptarls. She asked what they were.

PLANS FOR THE N. E. A.
Announced in an Official Bulletin l»y
Secretary Sliepurd.
Official Bulletin No. 1, announcing that
the forty-first annual convention of the
National Educational association will meet
in Minneapolis July 7-11, 1902, has been
issued by Secretary Irwin Shepard. Tho
bulletin speaks of the action of the munic
ipal and business organizations and the
school authorities of Minneapolis in unit
ing to pave the way for the proper en
tertainment and reception of the associa
tion. Full details regarding arrange
ments and rates to date are also given.
The circular adds:
"The West Hotel has been selected as
association headquarters. Thirty parlors
have been reserved for state headquarters
and will be assigned to states in the
order of application to this office. The
low price charged for these parlors will
make it possible for every state to enjoy
the advantages of state headquarters at
small expense.
"The active members in all states are
urged to co-operate with their respective
state directors in securing a large attend
ance at the Minneapolis convention. It is
gratifying to note that more than 1,200
active members attended the Detroit cou
vention. It is believed that a still lar
ger number will be present at the Minne
apolis meeting. The new active members
enrolled during the last year number 628,
bringing the total active membership up
to 2,810. The entire enrollment credited
to the Detroit meeting is 10,180."'
WONT ASK APPROPRIATION
Gov. Van Sant Denies Report Con
cerning' LouiHiana Purchase Expo.
During the absence of Governor Van
Sant in St. Louis, a report was circulated
that he would ask the extra session to
appropriate money for a Minnesota ex
hibit at the exposition. On his return
the governor denied the statement. Ke
favors a Minnesota representation, but
will leave the question entirely to the
legislature. His recommendations will be
brief.
Frank M. Eddy, who was also in St.
Louis at the breaking of ground for the
1903 exposition, favors a state appropria
tion of $100,000 to display the resources
and achievements of Minnesota.
Don't Get Left.
If you are going east and want to make
fast time the train via the North-Western
Line, formerly leaving Minneapolis at 6:25
p. m., St. Paul 6:56 p. m., now leaves Min
neapolis 5:35 p. m., St. Paul, 6:05 p. m.,
and arrives in Chicago in time to make
mail and fast train connections for the
east. See new North-Western Line time
tables in this paper.
Mississippi river. It is the product of the
Minnesota clam—a product of which we
are justly proud."
"A precious jewel indeed," said the
singer, "I will have two hundred of them.
You can make them into a necklace."
The delighted proprietor hastened to put
her order into execution.
When Mme. Xordica left Minneapolis
she carried with her this magnificent
souvenir of the industry of the Mississippi
clam. The necklace was twenty-eight
inches in length and .contained over 200
pearls. The cost of this ornament was
$1,500.
monotonous and uninteresting he started
a genuine Indian war whoop, and then
settled down into a chant sucli as the
Indians sing at their feasts. He showed
an inclination to dance and the hilarious
crowd, pushed roughly into the car and left
the rear platform to the red man, who
danced and sang, and perhaps would have
continued doing so indefinitely had he not
slipped from the platform to the step. He
was thrown heavily against the gates, but
they held, else he would have rolled from
the swiftly moving car. He thought his
little accident great, and laughed uproar
iously.
