WILL DISCUSS PLANS
Real Estate Board Has Several Impor
tant Matters to Consider.
Plans outlined for the coming year
of the Minneapolis Real Estate board
include several matters of public inter
est. One of these is the final definition
of the new union station proposition,
in which the members of the board are
going to take some sort of initiative.
The executive committee will suggest
a line of action.
Another matter of interest to be dis-
cuBsed fully at the next meeting will
be the proposed reducing of streets in
width. Thirty-first strreet will be one
of the first points of attack. This street
is about twice as wide as the new Park
avenue, and the board believes that,
for the sake of economy if nothing else,
the influence of its members should be
used in upholding the council in a move
to reduce the width of all wide streets.
Fred E. Barney is chairman of the
nominating committee, which will re
port on candidates for election at the
annual meeting, which is to be held the
third week in January.
TO BE FINE PERFORMANCE
Philharmonic Club Management Look
ing Forward to "The Messiah."
The management of the Philhar
monic club has every reason to believe
that the Christmas performance of
"The Messiah" at the Auditorium will
be the most even performance that the
club has given. Heretofore the chorus
has been limited in size, because of
space limitations, and the effect of the
oratorio has not neen the best because
of acoustic limitations. The Auditor
ium presents a most ideal opportunity
for combined chorus, solo and orches
tra work.
The Christmas rendition of "The
Messiah" is alwavs the best attended
performance of the combined club and
orchestra. This year will furnish no
exception, for at least 500 seats have
been taken already by the course
ticket holders. In addition to this,
nearly all the remaining seats in the
orchestra have been reserved by the
guarantors of the orchestra ana tho
subscribers to the sustaining fund. The
door sale, according to R. J. Horgan
of the box office, is invariably large
for "The Messiah."
The single seat sale begins Dec. 22
at the box office of the Metropolitan
music store.

SASKATCHEWAN FARMER BE-
LIEVES I N LOCAL PATRIOTISM.
Sells His Wheat to Elevators in His
Own Town and Pays the Commis-
sionsSays Canadian Northwest Suf
fers from "Get-Rich-Quick" Farmers
Who Will Not Work.
"The only thing that we want is
your market. When we can get this,
we are all right over there. We want
it for your implements and we want
it for our grain." Thus spoke William
Mawhinney of Weyburn, Saskatche
wan, at the Hyser hotel today.
Mr. Mawhinney is one of the success
ful farmers of western Canada, altho
he has been farming there for only two
seasons. His wheat is scattered in sam
ples thru 300 different towns in the
United States as land companies' ad
vertisements of the great wealth of the
Canadian northwest. He farms by
steam and pays $1,000 duty a year to
carry on his business.
In several ways Mr. Mawhinney is
different from the average farmer. He
patronizes his own community's indus
tries. Mr. Mawhinney doesn't know
whether his wheat goes to the old
country or to the United States. He
never sells his wheat outside of his
own town. He believes in "live and
let live," and therefore sells his gram
to the local elevators and pays the
commissions. This is for pure local
patriotism. He wants to know how
community is to be built up unless its
industries are patronized by its own1
people. He smiled at the statement of i ft?!
get the difference of 1 cent a hundred'
betwean Canadian Pacific and Great
farmers who seek to get rich at the
home-goers' rates. He has been in
Saskatchewan two seasons and owns
6,620 acres, nearly all broken. Where
he has spent $20 an acre he has re
ceived $35 back. Some land which he
has just bought at $10 an acre he ex
pects to clear itself this year.

MAIL CLERK KILLED
DEFER HEARING
Case of Swift & Co. Will Come Up
Dec. 26.
The hearing in the proceedings be
fore tne county auditor of Dakota
county, in which the state seeks to raise
the assessment of Swift & Co. to $5,000,-
000, has been continued again to Dec.
26, in order to permit the attendance
of Henry S. Veetler of Chicago as coun
sel for Swift & Co. Mr. Veeder is now
engaged in the beef trust cases, and
cannot attend on Friday, which was the
time set.
The request for continuance means
that the packing company will make a
hard fight at the very first stage of the
controversy, and will present the legal
questions involved for the county audi
tor to determine.
MUST "SQUARE UP"
Team Owners Must Fix "the Books"
Before They Haul Ice.
At a special meeting of the team
owners last Saturday evening it was de
cided in connection with the hauling of
ice that a man should be placed at each
platform in the city to protect the team
owners against all others hauling ice.
All team owners must be "square with
the books" before being permitted to
haul ice. It was further decided that
after Jan. 1, the initiation fee would
be increased from $5 to $15. The next
regular meeting will be held Saturday
evening. Dec. 23.

expense of little labor, according to' field equipment in ull is to be worn,
Mr. Mawhinney. One farm which he
calls to mind has had five crops with
out being plowed. The last wheat was
sowed on the stubble and drilled in
to save the labor and expense of plow
ing. This, Mr. Mawhinney thinks, is
bad for the farmer and bad for the
land, and for the same reason the yield
is not what it might be if more labor
were put on it.

Oscar F. Rexford of St. Paul Struck by
Switch Engine in Shed.
Oscar F. Rexford, a railway mail
clerk,-living at 1854 Rondo street, St.
Paul, was instantly killed by an Omaha
train in the union station, St. Paul,
shortly after 8 a.m. today.
Rexford was on his way from the
Milwaukee fast mail to his own tram,
the outgoing Minneapolis & St. Louis,
when he was struck. The Milwaukee
had been delayed a few minutes and
Rexford's train was due to leave short
ly, so that he had only a few minutes
in which to get the registered packages
and get back %o his own train. The
Milwaukee was standing on the out
side track, while the Minneapolis &
St. Louis train was on about the fourth
track from the outside. Several trains
were standing in between and Rexford
was compelled to pass thru these. While
he was working hia way thru the trains
the Duluth train on the Omaha ran him
down.
Rexford had been for a long time
on the run between St. Paul and Wa
tertown. He was 52 years old and
leaves a wife and family. The body
was removed to the county morgue.
Out- Liquor Bearing Mask Names Is
larwed by Government.
"Deaconed" booze has received an
other blow. A decision of the com
missioner of internal revenue received
at the local office today announces that
liquor must be shipped under the name
by which it is known to the trade, and
not by any name which does not reveal
its true character.
The decision was rendered in regard
to a concoction known as "Cream of
Hops," but applies equally well to sim
ilar fermented malt and spirituous bev
erages which bear non-coinmittal
names. The decision is aimed at# the
express liquor traffic in prohibition
states.

Carrying Heavy iFeld Equipment, Bat

Carrying Heavy field Equipment, Bat
talion Took Similar Work Monday
Test Will Be Regular' Feature.
Over slippery roads, coated with ice
and mud, and carrying the full comple
ment of heavy field equipment, a Dat
talion of the Twenty-eighth infantry,
Stationed at Fort Snelling, had a gru
elling drill today. The jaunt was a
minimum of ten miles, and when the
soldiers returned to their barracks after
the difficult travel over bad roads, they
were much fatigued. Their lot was no
harder than that of the second battal
ion, which had a similar test yesterday
afternoon, when the conditions'' were
the same.
This winter practice-marching is in
line with the new policy on athletics
and physical training which has been
adopted in-this department. Those who
advocated the change hold that it is
the general development of all the men
for the work of a soldier which should
be the object of the physical training,
rather than to make a few athletes
who can break records. First of all
importance, they claim, is the ability
of the infantry soldier to march, car
rying his full equipment and they fur
ther claim that the best way to teach
him to march is to make him actually

al-
the foremost improvements in
ew system is to make regular prac-
marches, every week during the

which even the extra duty and special
duty men are' required to attend. There
will be little or no fun in this, for th ""*""e
and the march will be not less than
ten miles. This is long enough to de
termine whether shoes are properly fit
ted and to teach a man to so adjust
his pack that it will not chafe as he
tramps along.
A blister on a soldier's toe or heel
is nust as fatal to the firing line as a
bullet from the enemy, if much of a
march is required to reach the fighting
point. The only way to prevent such
blisters is
t---

to car for their feet in same way

Under the old system, at most posts,
practice-marching was usually limited
to one long march each summer. This
put the men in fine shape at the time,
but did not keep them so. The new
system proposes to keep both officers
and men in marching condition -all the
time, by practical work week by week
and month by month. Major Bullard is
the foremost advocate of the new sys
tem of athletics.

The Northwestern Telephone Ex

to run its wires thru the streets and es
tablish a local exchange. This permis
sion was refused and now the company
is sueing before Judge Page Morris of

right to forbid it altogether. The plain

LEGISLATION, BUT
"to?
ICY SIDEWALKS
LAWS ARE PLENTIFUL, BUT
WALES REMAIN SLIPPERY.
City Attorney Frank Healy Advises
Making Test Case of Ordinance
Requiring 'Property Owners to
Clean Walks or Stand Expense' of
Having Work Done by Street Com
missioners. Icy walks are causing the usual num
ber of accidents which later on will
blossom into the usual crop of damage
suits. Whilp Minneapolis has settled
many important problems, the proposi
tion of keeping the sidewalks free from
snow and ice is no nearer solution than
when the first walk was laid.
There is no lack of laws on the sub
ject. One ordinance requires the own
ers or occupants of lots to remove
snow and ice from the walks before
noon of ea"h day. and in case the ice
forms so that it cannot be removed,
the owner is required to sprinkle the
ice witn sand or ashes. This ordinance
was passed in 1891 and is the same
measure under which the citv attempt
ed to compel "Elder" Stewart to
clean the walks in front of his premi
ses at Fourth and Hennepin. Mr. Stew
art won in the contest with the city.
The citv then went to the legislature
for an act empowering cities to pass
ordinances to compel owners to clear
their walks, in the event of failure to
do so, giving the street commissioners
authority to have the work done and
to assess the expense against the prop
erty. Following this act of the legisla
ture, the council, in* December, 1899,
passed another ordinance in accor
dance therewith.
This ordinance has never been en
forced, as there is some doubt as to
its constitutionality. It applies only
to the so-called fire limits, which in
cludes the business sections on both
sides of the river, extending out Hen
nepin avenue as far as Sixteenth
street, out Nicollet avenue to Grant
street and on Washington avenue from
Eleventh avenue S to Twentieth ave
nue N. It is the duty of the street
commissioners of the various wards
partly within the fire limits to remove
the snow and ice from the walks when
the owners refuse to do so, and to re
port the expense to the city council,
which shall thereupon assess the ex
pense against the property in the usual
way. The assessment ^hall be a lien
against the property, like other special
taxes.
City Attorney Frank Healy suggests
that it might be well for one of the
street commissioners having .-jurisdic
tion within the fire limits to act on the
ordinance for the purpose of making
a test case.
"If the ordinance is valid," he says,
"it would be desirable to know it, so
that the officers will know just what
their authority is on this important
quesion. With a supreme court decis
ion back of the ordinance, the citv can
then enforce it to the letter, and thi
would be of great public benefit. I
notice by the papers that a man was
killed in St. Paul yesterday by a fall
on an icy walk. Accidents are likely
to occur here at any time, and while
deaths are infrequent, serious injur
ies are often received/'
WIFE LOSES CASE
Fails to Shaw that She Will Live with
Husband.
Jerome F. Swart, arraigned in police
court on a charge of non-support, pre
ferred bv his wife, Theresa Swart, was
dismissed by Judge C. L. Smith today.
Mrs. Swart gave testimony tending
to show that her husband had not sup
ported her for several months, but she
could not show to the satisfaction of
the court that she would live with him.
She sued for a divorce in the district
court some time ago, but was unsuc
cessful. After the trial she did not re
turn to her husband's home and be
cause of this Judge Smith refused to
hold him to the district court.
