J., May 16.It is re ported here that the start of the trans atlantic yach race for the kaiser's cup has been, potsponed until tomorrow. At 2o'clock, the hour set for the prey paratory signal, the fog off the Jersey coast was so dense that it was impos i sible^ to see more than a few hundred feet." It was piling up on shore in a "breeze of over ten knots an hour. But fox the fog. the conditions for starting the race were better than at any pre vious hour. With the easterly wind the yachts had a prospect in case the weather cleared of a long reach to the Nantucket lightship. "IT PROFESSOR IS CLOSE TO NATDRE In Bathing Suit on Barren Beach This Chicago Pedagog Is Abiding. Wew York Sun 8peeial Servioe. Chicago, May 16.Existence in a bathing suit on a sandy, barren beach, far from the turmoil of civilization, without a friend or companion, and with only a deserted fisherman's shack as a shelter from storms, is the condi tion to which a University of Chicago professor has betaken himself. Here, where he can live close to na ture, where he can avoid mankind, which, on the whole, he declares, is uncongenial, he has decided to take up his abode for the remaining days of his life. Oscar Ekstein is the name of the Midway professor who has broken the bonds oi pedagogical conventionality. Since the first day of March he has been living in a small shanty near the lake shore, half a mile north of "Wind sor Park. "He is a professor of chem istry, and spends but a small part of his time in the laboratories in the Uni versity of Chicago. Many years he has been contemplat i ing such an existence. Now that he has realized his ideal of life, he declares he is happy. He cooks his own food, washes his own' clothes, regulates his daily routine to circumstances. He be lieves in eating when he is hungry and in sleeping when he is sleepy, whether it is noon or midnight. Clothes are unbearable to him. In i his daily life on the beach he wears only bathing trunks. They are much more healthy than the heavy garments of civilian dress, he declares. Every day he spends from one to two hours In the water. The remainder of his time, when not at the university, is spent in lounging about the sand sun ning himself. Professor Ekstein was born thirty-five vears ago in Munich. He is a graduate of both the universi ties of Munich and Geneva. New Elevator to Women's Ploor At the Plymouth Corner entrance.

I St. Petersburg, May 16.The Asso ciated Press learns that the basis of the project for ^he extension of the rights of Jews, now under discussion by the committee of ministers, is the complete removal of the time limit of residence of Jewish merchants the firsthand second class in the large cities of Russia (the period is now restricted to three months annually), and the unrestricted right of residence of Jew ish artisans. According to the Russ the complete project of the Bouligin rescript com mission provides as expected for a con sultative assembly on the lines of the Shipoff program with four estates mod eled on those of the Finnish dietthe nobles, the clergy, th,e burghers and, the peasants. Boulgin will now, according to the same authority, call in the marshals of the nobility, uresidents of the ex ecutive committees of the zerastvos and mayors "of cities to secure^ their views. LOCUSTS AND HOPPERS STATE ENTOMOLOGIST DESCRIBES INSECTS THAT INJURE CROPS SEVENTEEN-YEAR VARIETY UN KNOWN HERE. P. L. Washburn, entomologist of the state experiment station, has issued a circular calling attention to the general mistake made by the state press in re ferring to all sorts of locusts, seventeen year cicadas, and similar insects as lo custs. In order to correct the mistake, and to warn the public of the tru,e nature of these insect pests and those varieties which may be expected in this locality, the circular has been issued. The seventeen-year cicada, erroneous ly called the seventeen-year locust, has never appeared in this state, and there is little reason to fear that it will. It is, moreover, not a locust but a bug. It does not eat green vegetation, but by means of a beak, sucks the saps and juices of the plants attacked. It is also a scientific fact that the young live in the ground* the greater part of seven teen years before coming to maturity The Rocky Mountain locust, which is a true locust, and the native grasshop per are the insects which should be guarded against in this locality. The Rocky Mountain pest devours green foliage and in large numbers can lay waste large tracts. It may be guarded against by plowing up the land where it lays its" eggs. If the plowing is done* in the fall or early spring the eggs will be killed by the cold. The native grasshopper' also devours plants and does damage proportionate to its numbers. Occasionally a native grasshopper closely resembling the Rocky Mountain locust appears and does much damage. The true grasshop per is found on bushes and in tall grasp, and is generally green. It is not so robust as the locust, and is generally slender and inclined to be small. SEEDING IS STOPPED Late Farm Work Badly Interfered With by Rains. Weather and crop conditions in Min nesota for the week ending Monday are summarized in the bulletin issued by T. S. Outram, government forecaster, as follows: The temperatures were low much of the week, the minimums approaching the freezing point in northern portions daily until the 13th, when the temperatures rose rapidly, so that they were 70 degrees or higher later in the day. There were heavy rains on the 9th, 10th and 11th. and at many points on the 12th, 13th and 14th. On the 9th snow fell with the rain at many points, and on the 11th there were local hailstorms. The wet weatheY prevented nearly all farm work, so that the finishing .of barley and flax seeding in central and northern portions and the planting of corn and potatoes in central and southern portions were stopped. All the streams and lakes are full of water, and meadows and low-lying fields are flooded, with danger of injury from stand ing water, or from the deposit of soil washed from hilly fields. In southern counties corn planting was going on well before the rains set in, but in all portions where corn is grown there is still much planting to be done. Spring wheat and oats are generally up well, but the growth of the small grains^ grass and other vege tation is slow, tho pastures seem to be doing well. All the fruits promise well, there being an abundance of blossom, which is already out or nearly so.

The new main building will face Uni versity avenue between Fifteenth and Sixteenth aveiues SE. The announce ment was made after a joint meeting of the regents. Accompanied by C. H. Johnson, the architect of the board of control, the re gents and members of the board in spected the campus and after consider ing every available site decided that the location on "University avenue was the most desirable. The building will extend the entire length of the block and will be built as near the avenue as possible so as to leave the parade ground as large as pos sible. The new building will be .three stories high. The site chosen has been opposed strenuously by many faculty members and by undergratuates and if a building could have been erected on the site of the "old main building" this would have been done. Lack of space for such a large building as is contem plated made the use of the old site im possible. A plan for erecting the new building on University avenue across Fifteenth and extending toward Fourteenth ave nue, preserving $he drillground almost as it is and shutting off the campus from the outside was considered impracti cable as driveways would have to be built on Fifteenth avenue. The new building will be constructed in accordance with a plan which has as its object the erection of other buildings along' University avenue, eventually completely^ surrounding that part of the campus with buildings. QUIT THE GOPHER Medics Will Issue a Publication of Their Own. Dissatisfied with the representation given the medical school in the Gophers of the past, the sophomore medical class has decided to issue a medical annual and refuse to contribute for the support of next year's Gopher. At a meeting yesterday steps were taken toward the Eublication of a medical annual and a oard of editors was chosen. Revolt among the other professional schools against the practice of limiting the professional school representation in the Gopher to a few pages'for each department is expected as a result of the action of the medics. It is possible that the status of the Gopher may be serious ly affected. The list of editors chosen by the medics is as follows:: Editor in chief, Alexander A. Barclay business man ager, George Cutts associate editors, Mary McMillan, S. B. Pond, D. M. Strang, E. C. Ecklund, Fred Poppe ar tists, C. O. Estrom, J. F. Xiemstrom.

Therefore the British government, the Associated Press understands, is using every eifort to keep the Japanese cool and at the same time urging upon France the necessity of respecting neu trality, in which Great Britain agrees in principle with Japan. Baron Hayashi, the Japanese minis ter here, said today he was positive that if France sent a definite demand to St. Petersburg, Vice Admiral Bojest vensky would not remain in French waters twenty-four hours. Minister Hayashi characterized as absurd the French charges that Japan intended ultimately to attempt to an nex Cochin China. He applied a like characterization to similar statements in the United States regarding the Philippine islands. l* Half a teaspoon in half a glass of water just before retiring brings refreshing sleep.

PAUE AND GADSKI Great at Conductor and Great Singer Auditorium Tomorrow. As a conductor Emil Paur is distinctly a sensation, so a Minneapolis audience is destined to enjoy some enjoyable thrills tomorrow night at the Auditorium, as he wields his baton over the Pittsburg or chestra. His work this year In his new field has been under very favorable cir cumstances and has evoked ihuch en thusiastic comment. His directing Is full of life, verve and virility. He arouses each Individual player to the utmost, because he is himself so fully imbued with the spirit of the music he is interpreting. His own strength of feeling Impresses itself emphatically on both players and audi encee. Mme. Gakski, one of the greatest Wag nerian sopranos living, Is another most sympathetic artist who feels everything she sings. The combination of these two great artists in the s^ene-and ballad from "The Flying Dutchman" will be worth going far to hear. The emphatic opinion of the musical world, based upon an en tire season of recital work, Is that Mme. Gadskl Is as great in concert as in opera, as she is able to hold her audiences com pletely spellbound thru a long program. This is the height of power for a singer, for in concert the attraction is wholly art plus personality. DEATH OIF EAU CLAIRE BREWER. Special to The Journal.

To my mind that is'not tainted money. I don't know how he got his money. He got it in business, maybe trust business, but when a man wants to do some good with money I don't think it is right to yell at him like some of these preachers have yelled at Rockefeller. Change of Front. "Mind you I am still talking about these funnv preachers. I have had them knock me, try to stop my fights and take the bread and butter ouc of my mouth. Some of them have preached against me and I never murmured. I thought at the time that they were honest and I would not quarrel or find fault with a man who was honest in his beliefs. Then after have won a purse these same socalled preachers come to me and want money for their churches. I have given lots of money to churches and never made ony blow about it, and shall help out the churches as long as have any monev, but these little things gave me a look in on the character of some of the preachers. I am a prizefighter and make my money in the ring fighting or on the stage and people pay to see me work on account of what I* have done in the prize ring. If I want to give my money to_ the church I don't think it is tainted. I don't think that some poor devil who needs bracing up or some missionary preacher who needs assist ance to keep up his work should be de prived of it. I don't know how John Rockefeller got his money and I don't care. He was in business, and the fel low who loses in a horse trade always says mean things about the fellow that ets the best of the trade. From what have heard about him I guess John D. is a pretty decent old chap, and if he wants to do some good with his monev I think it is folish to raise the yell that it is tainted. I say take it, and make it go as far as it will. Then if he wants 1o give more take that and keep on taking it as long as he has a cent to spare."

May ib, xvvo. to Congregational Clergymen Reply Outcry Against Acceptance. New Haven, Conn., May 16.In a letter acknowledging the receipt, from the committee ot protesting ministers, of documents bearing upon the recent acceptance of the Rockefeller donation to the American Board of Commission ers of Foreign Missions, the pastors of Congregational churchese in New Ha ven, with the exception of Rev. Arte mus ,J. Haynes of the United church, have jointly given expression to their views in the matter. The pastors say s.ome extraordinary statements of the protestants call for an answer. They deplore ati'y unnecessary and harsh criticizm of missionary so cieties. Further, they say they are among those who have agreed to the accept ance of the gift, Dut have not mani fested what the committee calls any "tendency" to "palliate, excuse, ex culpate," anything that ma}' be shown to be wrong in the business methods of any corporation. On the contrary, the pastors assert, they have not neglected suitable oppor tunities of testifying against any rec ognized double standards of private or public morals, or against any recog nized form of industrial or social evil, regardlesss of what individ uals might be present in their congre gations, and without anxious thought of the possible offense to the contributers to the treasuries of churches. Consumptive Mrs. E. S. Taborn, Wife of a Department Store Manager, Cured bf a Chronic Cough by Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey. Young Lady, Who Had Lost 40 Pounds in Six Months, Is Quickly Cured of Distress ing Cough. Manager Taborn, Cured of Chronic Constipation and Bowel Trouble, Tells of His Remarkable Recovery. "During the fall and winter of 1903-4, my wife had a chronic cough which ran down her sys tem, reduced her weight and sapped her strength to such an extent that we became alarmed and feared she had consumption.. Her doctor gave her very little relief, and we tried different med icines in vain, taut nothing benefited her until she began to take Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey, which we heard of through a testimonial of a temperance advocate. Before the first bottle was taken, the cough had almost ceased, and by continued treatment in a very short time she was cured. "Another wonderful cure was that of a young lady employed by me in a department store in Baltimore, who was troubled with a chronic cough, and who had lost 40 pounds in six months. Medicine did her no good, and she was in despair, when I advised her to take your grand medicine. In a short tinte she was en tirely cured. N "Personally my experience with 'Duffy's' has been little short of marvelous. For years I had chronic constipation, which brought on bowel trouble and bleeding piles. For five years I doctored with pills and other medicine, but re ceived no relief until I commenced to take 'Duffy's.' The first bottle had a magical ef fect, and In a short time I was restored to com plete health."E. S. Taborn, Baltimore, Md., March 2, 1905. PRESIDENT POLK'S "NIECE Suffered Several Years Was Cured By Pe-ru-ria Mrs. Minnie Lee Collins, grandniece of the late President James K. Polk, writes from 912 High street, Nashville, Tenn.: "For several years I experienced a severe attack of female trouble. The best physicians prescribed for me, but without avail. Two years ago I began to take Peruna at the advice of a friend. I noticed a perceptible improvement'at once after taking several bottles I was cured. I hold Peruna in high esteem and am always ready to say a good word for it." OMB of the most illustrious fami lies in the United States, whose ancestors have been famous in our na tional history, not only use and believe in Peruna, but do not hesitate to give public endorsement of it. No medicine in the world has received such unqualified praise from all classes. It is per fectly natural that all classes should praise the same remedy, for all people are subject to the same diseases. ALL CLASSES PRAISE PE-RU-NA. HORRORS! A PRINCE IS AT LARGE IN GOTHAM New York Sun Special Service. New York, May 16.Has ISTew York a prince of the German empire within its confines, and is it in utter ignorance of the fact? On board the Hamburg, the German yacht which is to race for the ocean championship, is a mysterious young man, who closely resembles Prince Adal bert, the third son of the kaiser. Whenever Captain Peters passes him he bows with great respect. All the men treated him with the greatest def erence. He signs himself "Triton," a title which is assumed only by the rank ing officers of the royal house when on sea. It is an honorary title specially bestowed. When the mysterious unknown leaves the ship he wears the costume of a well to-do young business man. He affects no insignia of nobility. Prince Adalbert is 21 years old and is said to be a natural sailor, and can take his turn with any of them in the sharp est weather.
