Security Trust Company, N. Y. Life bldg. DO NOT MAKE RIGHT KIND OF CHEESE Minnesota Men Nesd Schooling to Compete With Wisconsin Makers. If Dairy Commissioner McConnell is reappointed to the office which he now holds, in January next there will be a number of lines of new work taken up by the department. "One thing that strikes me very forcibly," said Mr. McConnell, "is that Minnesota cheese makers are not keeping up with the cheese makers of other states. In Minnesota there are something over 100 factories, while in Wisconsin there are nearly 2,000. Not only has Wisconsin twenty times the number of factories there are in Min nesota, but Wisconsin cheese brings from two to three cents more a pound than the Minnesota product. "The Minnesota cheese makers have just as good material as the Wiscon sin men with which to manufacture the product, but it is admitted there is a considerable difference in the quality of the cheese and also in the price secured. Now to my mind the whole trouble is that our cheese makers do not make the right kind of cheese. If I am reappointed as head of the dairy and food commission I shall at once secure the services of an expert from Wisconsin and have him devote at least six months to showing our cheese makers how the Wisconsin product is made. There certainly must be some thing in the making of the product which causes the demand for it and puts the price two or more cents per pound above the Minnesota article. As I said before, I have decided if I re main at the head of the department for another term to get a Wisconsin ex pert to visit the cheese factories of this state and give "our cheese makers pointers as to the manufacture of the product which will place it on the same grade with the cheese made in Wisconsin." HAS ONLY TWO REAL BIRTHDAYS IN 17 YEARS C. S. Bartram. Born on Thanksgiving Day, Duly Celebrates the Coincidence- C. S. Bartram, proprietor of the Min neapolis and St. Paul Cigar and Tobacco Journal, chanced to be born on Thanks giving day, but the anniversary of the event, owing to the idiosyncrasies of leap year, falfs on Thanksgiving day but twice in seventeen years. Yesterday was one of these occasions, and Mr. Bartram was given a birthday party at his home on Iglehart street, Merriam Park, which was attended by a dozen intimate friends of the family, who . brought many happy souvenirs as tokens of their friendship. An excellent Thanks giving day (Jinner was prepared by Mrs. Bartram and her mother, Mrs. C. T. No ble, of Indiana, who is visiting here. On the table which was decorated with flowers and the American colors, was a handsome collection of steins, gathered from all parts of Europe, and presented to Mr. Bartram by his son, who has been traveling all over the old world for the past five years, and which were recently shipped to America from London. One of the many presents Was an elk horn um brella, silver mounted and handsome en graved, in presenting which, for the party, P. H. McManus made a neat speech. The party included: Mr. and Mrs. T. B.

SUIT MIGHT SHUT THE SCHOOLS UP Should It Be Decided That Levy Is Four Mills Term Would Be Brief. "If the question is taken into the courts and the decision should be that the city cannot levy to exceed 4 mills for school purposes, the result will be that the schools will be closed just one-third of the school year of 1903," said Secretary Healy, of the school board. The statement was made at a re cent meeting of the conference com mittee that there was a question whether the city could legally -levy more than 4 mills for "school purposes, and it was in answer to the question as to what the board would do if the levy was cut to 4 mills that drew out the above statement from Secretary Healy. Supt. Smith corroborated this and announced that from the ex pressions he had heard members of the board make, he was prepared to say that there would be no reduction in salaries of teachers, and if there was any taxpayer in St. Paul who car ed so little for the schools as to raise the question in the courts, the school year would be shortened just one-third providing the court should hold the levy was limited to 4 mills. "We are short a number of teachers now," continued Superintendent Smith "and have about a dozen places which are being filled by substitutes. There fs a great demand for teachers and there is also better wages offered out of the work of teaching. I have just received a letter from a teacher in a small town in Wisconsin who refuses to accept a position here for the rea son that she can obtain the same sal ary there."" Two of our best teachers are to leave Dec 1, one to accept a position in another city and the other to enter a new line of work. The trouble in securing teachers is the problem which is now confronting the school board." SAYS DIPHTHERIA IS CHECKED BY ANTI-TOXIN Dr. Bracken Explains What Figures Compiled Mean in Fact. Secretary Bracken, of the state board of health, says he has been mis quoted in the press as to the state ment that there was danger from an epidemic of diphtheria. "What I did say in my report," said Dr. Bracken, "was that anti-toxin can justly be given credit for reducing the death rate from diphtheria per 1,000 from 67 in 1890 to 22 in 1899 and we can justly charge to careless methods in quarantine the increase in mortality; from this disease from 22 per 1,000 in 1899 to 41 in 1901. In large cities diphtheria is practically endemic, due undoubtedly to insufficent quarantine. The best results are in villages and cities ranging in population from 5,000 to 20,000, the worst results are in large cities and rural • districts." A table prepared by Dr. Bracken of the number of deaths per .1,000 from diphtheria, in Minneapolis, St. Paul and Duluth give the following figures: In -1900 —Minneapolis, 50; St. Paul, 34; Duluth, 24. In 1901—Minneapolis, 70; St. Paul, 26; Duluth, 42. STREET CAR PATRONS WERE DULY THANKFUL Big Cars and Small Ones Comfortably Heated and Frost on the Windows Melted. Patrons of the Twin City Rapid Transit company had much to be thankful for yesterday—well-warmed cars. Before starting 1 out, the heaters in all the big cars were put in operation and on the small cars the stoves were filled with coal and lighted. The in novation made a slight inroad on the company's fuel supply, but the patrons were thankful for the favor.- A clamor for heat in the cars was made two weeks ago, but the company ignored it until yesterday. Frost on the windows was then a common sight, but this chilly blur was dispelled yes terday. ; . Sometimes They Don't Dance. While the charity ball was in full swing at the Masonic hall the other evening a woman" and -her little girl were going past the entrance when the child was attract ed fey the unusual appearance of the place. "What's the matter here, mama?" she innocently asked. "Why, it's a charity ball." "What's a charity ball, mama?" "Why—why—" said the bewildered woman, "it's a—it's a— Why, the rich people dance and then give the poor peo "ple the money made at the dance to get things to eat.'' "And do the poor people eat only when the rich people dance?" queried the inno cent. But the mother was lost thinking over the very pertinent question. \ Mr. Yale Will Be Burled Saturday.

PAUL EXPERIENCES AN IDEAL AND MEMORABLE THANKS GIVING DAY WEATHER WAS DELIGHTFUL AND FEASTS SUMPTUOUS Inmates of the Hospitals, Charitable Institutions and Jails Were Ail Ap propriately Remembered — Families of the Poor Likewise Supplied With Provisions — Many Churches Hold Services. Even if St. Paul had nothing else to be thankful for yesterday, it cer tainly owed itself a hand-shake for the ideal weather that prevailed. From 10 o'clock until 3 o'clock old Sol shone with unusual brilliancy, and all St. Paul came forth to bask In his rays. In the memory of the oldest inhabitant there was not a prettier Thanksgiving than yesterday. Yesterday, it might be said, was a gala day in St. Paul. True, there were no attractions, unless the theaters might be called such, but the sun-kissed streets offered an excellent excuse for a promenade and many took advantage of it. Vehicles were also out in force. The football games, in cities more fa vored than St. Paul, were an attrac tion, and wherever the returns were displayed there the "fiends" could be found in abundance. 'In nearly all St. Paul churches Thanksgiving services of a brief or special character were neld, and these, as a rule, were well attended. In the afternoon the theaters offered induce ments ,and all were well patronized. Social functions attracted a tew, but in the main the streets claimed the at tention of the majority. St. Paul Well Fed. St. Paul was well fed yesterday, if the hotel and restaurant menus and the sales books of the various food dispensing houses are any criterion. The latter report the heaviest sale of edibles in years, while at the hotels and restaurants spreads, elaborate in their preparation, confronted the guests. Though the hotels were not so crowded with transients, as many of them made it an object to eat turkey at home, their places were taken by local lovers of something good to eat who saw in the elaborate menus'relief from the labor and cost of dinner at home. Even the saloons varied the monotony of cold meats and desicated potatoes" with turkey and other edi bles appropriate to a proper Thanks giving feed. Where money was lacking, charity filled the void, and in this respect more than one unfortunate yesterday found something to be thankful for. Between the local relief societies, the schools, the Elks and other institutions, it is estimated that more than 5,000 per sons were provided with a Thanksgiv ing dinner. Clothing, in a number of instances, accompanied the food.- As a rule, the dinners were taken direct to the homes of those it was intended for. All in all, it was a Thanksgiving long to be remembered. Weather, prosper ity and everything combined to make the day in St. Paul one without a par allel. UNFORTUNATES REMEMBERED Inmates of Hospitals, Jail and Work- house Have Cause for Thanks. Not only did the wealthy and well to-do have occasion yesterday to feel thankful for blessings and happiness, but those, unfortunate ones whom pov erty and adversity have placed in un pleasant circumstances, had also a feeling~of gratitude for the kindness and forethought that supplied them with the necessaries and delicacies that go to make up good cheer. They indeed realized that in the world in which they have had a hard part to live there were folks who thought of them and gave them the opportunity of sharing in the general thanksgiving and rejoicing. With services in the various churches, characterized by simplicity and sincerity and with the traditional turkey dinner, the day was spent by thousands of families in St. Paul. Friendly gatherings and family re unions were in evidence in all parts of the city, for the spirit of the time lent aptness to such functions. Among the poorer houses in the squalid and scattering neighborhoods there prevailed the same feeling of gratitude as among the mansions of the rich. The inmates of the jail and workhouse, as well as of the hospitals and institutions of charity, had reason to share in this feeling too, for special dinners were prepared and served to them by their custodians. The thirty-nine inmates of the jail yesterday were regaled with turkey, cranberry sauce, celery, mashed pota toes, coffee and mince pie. After the meal the men were given cigars left for them by Judge John Finehout. The meal was donated by Sheriff Justus, and the work of preparing and serving the meal was superintended by Mrs. Justus. In the afternoon services were led by Mrs. Joy, who conducts services in the jail twice every week, Sundays and Thursdays. A similiar feast was provided for the inmates of the workhouse yester day. There were sixty-nine individuals in the house yesterday, and Supt. John Fitzgerald did all he could to render their lot as agreeable as possible. The school children who have been bringing food in large quantities for the past week, from their homes, would have been gratified to see the happiness that was diffused ■in the "145 families among which the provis ions were distributed. Discretion was used by Relief Agent Hutchins in giv ing out the food; only those families that were known to be in need were supplied. There • were fifty families less this year than last year to whom aid was given. The surplus vegetables and the jellies and canned fruit, that were suitable for giving to needy and sick persons, were stored in the cellar of the Relief Society building to be used when orders are received during the corfflng months, and there will be many such. The various charitable socities of the city and the church societies provided for hundreds of families. It is esti mated that nearly 800 families in the city and vicinity were furnished with the means of getting up good dinners. CHURCHES HELD SERVICES. Father McCali Speaks at Cathedral and Rev.

Sherwood Plays- Classical Selections for the Students. William H. Sherwood, of Chicago, the well known pianist, gave a recital at the Visitation Convent yesterday morning at 11 o'clock for the students and their friends. It is a rare treat to hear Mr. Sherwood, and particularly in the in formal manner afforded yesterday, when he prefaced each number on the pro gramme .with a short talk in regard to the motif and 'the various phases of each. The director of music at the Vis itation has studied under Mr. Sherwood and the music department of the school is under his general direction. He played first the prelude from. "Etudes Poesies," which served as an ex cellent introduction to a well chosen pro gramme, but it was perhaps in the Son ata in E flat, by Beethoven, which he said was seldom heard in concert, that Mr. Sherwood showed his power of shading and giving wonderful meaning to each of the parts, particularly the intermezzo. Mr. Sherwood is an artist of rare ability, and he makes the piano speak a language that all music lovers understand. Mr. Sherwood is simply making his annual visit to the institutions of which he has general supervisi o^. and played last night in Minneapolis, after which he leaves for Michigan.

Instead of the big wind, West side flat residents will now date all unusual events from Thanksgiving, 1902, for yesterday witnessed the Rock Island's first rail connection with its fine new freight depot on the West Side. The first train was not exactly load ed with.the freight of commerce, sand and ties and a grinning lot of swarthy faced laborers, but it was a train, and the first at that, and the way the fierce shriek of the engine's whistle awoke the echoes was sufficient to bring the residents out in a hurry. Several hundred laborers worked all forenoon yesterday in laying the track, and it was not until noon that the first train passed over it. It was a work train, and the long string of flat cars which composed it had hardly settled in place before the second section of track was under construction. When dusk arrived the second track had not advanced beyond State street, but it will undoubtedly be completed today. Finely Equipped Freighthouse. The new depot, which was completed a week ago, is one of the largest and best equipped warehouses in the West, and is all ready for the recaption of freight. The first train yesterday was a work train, but it is expected that the Rock Island's regular freight line will be making connections with the depot before another week has passed. To the West side, the entrance of the Rock Island means much, and In consequence there is much elation over the arrival of yesterday's train. Crowds visited the locality yesterday and the flat dwellers were out in force to wel come the invaders.

"I thought my own country, Ger many, had some magnificent * beauty spots, stretches of bluff and water line miles in length, the sacred precincts of which neither factory or railroad was ever permitted to invade, but I have had my views considerably changed since I visited the bluffs be tween Fort Snelling and Summit avenue," said Peter Van Hoven, of the board, yesterday. "It is the wildest stretch of terri tory I have ever seen," continued Mr. Van Hov«n. "Ravines break the face of the bluff every hundred feet or so and these shelter waterfalls and foli age that are beautiful te see. Along the top of the bluff is room for a mag nificent roadway, which, with the view of the river and green sward below, cannot be duplicated I believe in the entire Northwest. I wonder now that this magnificent park was not secured before this." The park board will condemn the face of the bluff down to the water's edge, including a 200 foot roadway along the top of the bluff. The cost, it is figured, will be small, as the damages will be more than offset by the benefits accruing to the adjacent property. The park board now has its eyes on a similiar boulevard to be established along the West Side bluffs from Fort Snelling to Wabasha street.

After the banquet, the party ad journed to the parlor and listened to an address by Hiram F. Stevens. The speaker eulogized the deeds of the reg iment during the civil war and de clared the members would always ba the boys of IS6I-65 in the memory of a grateful country which they fought to save. "But for you and your comrades, living and dead, there would be today no United States," said the speaker. "When you marched away from Min nesota the bonds of the United States, drawing 12 per cent interest, were sold at a discount of 40 per cent. They now sell above par, and but for you there would be none. The constitution should be amended so as to provide that no federal office should be held by any other than an old soldier. Minne sota had the honor of tendering the first regiment of volunteers to the Union. It was a Minnesota man who was the first enlisted soldier, and he was a member of the First Minnesota regiment."
