Tuesday" ^Evening, PLAN BIG MERGER OFLUMBER MAKERS MISSISSIPPI AND WISCONSIN VAL- LEY ASSOCIATIONS MEET HERE. Each Will Lose Its Identity in the Great Northern Pine Manufacturers' Association, Which Will Perfected at This MeetingJ. E. Rhodes to Retained, as Secretary. The Mississippi Valley Lumbermen's association and the Wisconsin Valley Lumbermen's association both met for the last time this morning,- dissolved as organizations, and their respective members this afternoon united in. a .new combination, the Northern Pine Manufacturers' association. The dissolution of the old associa tions took place on their adjournment at noon from meetings held during the morning in the West hotel, in adjoin ing rooms on the second floor. The meeting of the Mississippi Val ley association as much the more for mal. Some fifty lumbermen attended the gathering, which was presided over by President E. L. Carpenter. Most of the session' was taken up with re ports officers, read by Secretary J. E. Rhodes. His own report was of. considerable length, technical and sta tistical T, Rhodes also gave a: very com plete market review of 1905, a paper so exhaustive and interesting that he was given a vote of thanks. It showed 1905 had surpassed all previous years in stability of lumber prices and in the consumption of lumber. The speaker predicted even greater business for the new year. cited the criticism made that the price of lumber has advanced disproportionately with other things. This he denied, and by statistics showed that the. retail price has not increased in proportion with the increased cbst of standing timber. Figures were cited to show that a bale of cotton today will actually buy more lumber than it would in years gone by. when lumber as much cheaper. The financial report of the Missis sippi Valley association showed the year's receipts to' have been $33,484, compared with disbursements of $28,- 8S3. The meeting of the Wisconsin Val ley association was very informal. About a dozen members met and in formally discussed the final affairs of their organization, ending by adopting a formal resolution favoring entering the proposed Northern Pine Manufac- truers' association. This afternoon, at the West, the members of the .two organizations are in session shaping up the new associa tion. Its constitution is very similar to that of the Mississippi Valley asso ciation. The afternoon is being de voted to the discussion of technical sub jects of the trade and details of the hew combine. Officers are to be elected late this afjternoon. J. E. Rhodes will doubtless be retained in charge of the association's Minneapolis headquarters, as he has formerly represented both associations here. THINK SNIDER HOUSE FIRED BY BDRGLARS Burglars are thought to have set fire to the fine residence of S. P. Snider at 122$ Mount Curve avenue early yester day morning after they had searched the rooms for valuables. Officials of the fire department can come, to ho other conclusion and Will report the re sults of their investigation to Mr. Snider, who is spending the winter in the south. Assistant Fire Marshal Sharpe in vestigated the fire thoroly yesterday and could find nothing that could have set fire to the house in a natural way. The house was locked up, with the ex ception of one room, which was occu pied by a young man who takes care of the house." says he was awakened by the, smoke in his room and turned in the alarm. There had been no fire in his room for several days. The windows to the room in which the fire started were broken open by the firemen and it is not known wheth er they were unfastened before that. There were no electric wires in the building nor any chemicals that would start a fire. The rooms looked as tho they might have been ransacked and Mr. Snider will be asked to have some one go thru the house to see if anything is missing. The fact that the house has been va cant for several months would natur ally attract the attention of burglars. The police have also been asked to help in the investigation.

POOR DEPARTMENT GAVE AID TO 2,501 SIX HUKDRED AND SIXTY-FOTTR FAMILIES HELPED I N YEAR. Superintendent Barton's Report Shows Work of City's Charitable Depart- mentExpenses Last Year Less than wo Preceding Years"Pin Money" of Nurses May Cut. Superintendent W P. .Barton of the^ poor department will submit his annual report at a special meeting, of the board of charities anfl e/^rv^tions this evening. The report- vill show that 664 families of 2,501 mj"3jr were given assistance. The aid was distributed as follows: 2,548 grocery orders 2,017 wood orders 16 coal orders 161 transportations^ 57 burials 22 persons sent to Bethany home and 33 to the poor farm. A the end of the year there were five persons at Bethany home and fifty at the poor farm on the city's account. The department expense for the year was $26,527, as compared with $28,481 for 4904 and $31,916 for 1903. With regard to nationality the 664 families were divided as follows: American, 125 Afro-American, 23 Danish, 14 English, 21 French, 26 German, 66 Irish, 63 Jewish, 41 Nor wegian, 108 Polish, 20 Swedish, 118. A new feature is the tabulation of the applicants for aid according to the causes for making the call on public charity. Sickness is tho most prolific cause, with 196 cases. Others are as fol lows: Loss of provider by death, 105 old age, 104 desertion, 98 insuffi cient income, 68 chronic illness, 22 drunkenness, 18 quarantine, 11 out of work, 10 husband in prison or other institution, 22. The purpose in calling the board to gether this evening is to fix the com pensation for the nurses at the city hospital, who are taking the training course. These, in addition to their board', room, laundry and other ex penses, are given from $6 to $10 a month, whereas, the customary "pin money" allowance in. hospitals to un dergraduate nurses is from $3 to $5. It is argued that there is no reason why the city hospital nurses should have any advantage over their sisters, simply because they are in a public in stitution. To learn other professions usually costs considerable money, it is argued, and there is no injustice to the nurses if the stipend is re tlu, t! TODAY IN THE DISTRICT COURT Judge D. F.

Many of the Poultry Exhibits' Are Now in Place in the Pond Building and the Show Will Be a Great Attraction, Beginning TomorrowBest Show Yet Given Here. Minneapolis is how in the alligator belt. Thirty-two wiggling, slimy, squirmy little' muggers were hatched this morning in Minneapolis in spite of the zero weather. Their foster father, operating the incubator in which they hatched, tried to hold them back a day or twp waiting for warmer weather,-but it was no use, and the little fellows cracked their shells and wiggled out. Some weeks ago 200 alligator eggs were secured in Florida and sent to Minneapolis to be a feature of the twen tieth annual exhibit of the Minnesota State Poultry association, which opens tomorrow in the Pond, building,. 617-625 First avenue S. The alligator idea orig inated with M. W. Saya^a, who placed the eggs in two incubators, turned on the heat and waited for results. They arrived today. N ot only are the little fellows the first to be hatched in Min nesota, but they are the first to be hatched in an incijbator. The rest of the eggs are timed to last thruout the show, which continues until Jan. 31. Fine Poultry Show. Minneapolis has seen many fine poul try shows, but the present exhibit is at the head of the class all by itself. The exhibition room and the facilities offered exhibitors and visitors are the best the association has ever had. There is plenty of room to allow every coop to be placed in a good position. The build ing is warm and light, and thru the kind efforts of the contracting depart ment of the General Electric company has been supplied with a profusion of arc lights that will make the show' rooms light as day during the evening exhibitions. .Every day of the exhibit will have some special feature. Tuesday night will be for the students at the state agricultural college who will attend in a body with Prof essor Drew at the head of the line. Fifty carrier pigeons from all parts of the country have been re ceived and will be liberated daily at 2 p.m. to make flights to their homes. The finishing touches were.being put on this morning. Secretary George JLoth as probably the busiest man in the city, atte'mling to the thousand and one small details that must be disposed of before the doors are opened to the pub lic. The show will be open every day and evening, beginning tomorrow morning and lasting until Jan. 31, including Sun day. If High-Grade" Sale. $6 Stetson Shoes, $3.75.
