Pleasures of Age, Baltimore Sun: A contemporary re calls the fact that Fontenelle adjudged his best years to be those between the age of 55 and 75, and that Dr. Johnson agreed with him in placing the pleas ures of age far higher than those of youth. It all depends. The pleasures of ybuth are those of the body, the pleas ures of age are those of the spirit. If the spirit is dwarfed and stunted in youth and midlife it will be incap able of furnishing pleasure later on. It must be kept alive and healthy. One of the ways of doing this is by cultivating the open mind. Another is by enlarging one's sympathies. A third is by mounting a hobby, preferably one with an artistic or altruistic bent. The man who can grow old as grace fully as William Dean Howells or Car dinal Gibbons or James Bryce may very well find his latter days better than the first. For them age is. no more a bar to pleasure than to usefulness. The Same Old Suit. Saturday Evening Post: One-eyed Bill Plaster, long since passed to his reward, moved suddenly from Texas to Arizona. "How comes it, Bill," asked Marc Smith, now Senator from Arizona, "that you left Texas and came over here?" "Why," said Bill, "I'll tell you, Marc, It's all on account of a lawsuit. Every term of court I was pestered with a lawsuit. Always there was that durn lawsuit every blamed term, and I .Just sloped to git rid of it." "What lawsuit?" "Oh," Bill answered, "the same old lawsuit every time. They alius called it The oCmmonwealth of Texas agin Bill Plaster.' I /-y- Men's Shoes $2.50 SACHS Fine Footwear for women and college girls.

Where summer burns but neves' Sighs With breath of pity. How little speaks of thee but there Thy rose of roses, sweet and fair I found this morning!

ADDITIONAL SOCIEH. SUFFRAGE NOTES Minneapolis suffragists organized a new club at a meeting yesterday after noon at the home of Mrs. Andreas Ue land. Their purpose is to make a nu cleus of an efficient state organization. The organizers are: Mrs. Andreas Ueland, Mrs. D. P. Simpson, Miss Gra tia Countryman, Mrs. H. G. Harrison, Mrs. Walter Thorp, Miss Nelile Mer rill, tars. Russell Bennett, Mrs. George H. Partridge, Mrs. Sumner McKnight, Mrs. A. H. Potter, Mrs. A. B. Jackson, sr., Mrs. Thomas Lowry, Miss Hope McDonald, Miss Charlotte Passmore, Mrs. D. P. Jones, Mrs. Clarkson Lind ley, Mrs. F. B. Snyder and Mrs. James Paige. "Minnesota has crying need of a bus inesslike suffrage organization," said Mrs. Ueland. "Without it our labor with the legislature is useless. Here tofore Minnesota suffrage societies have been academic, but now we plan to form a political organization modeled on the same lines as political parties. The Woman's Suffrage party of New York is organized on the same basis and it has proved to be a most efficient device for promoting woman suffrage, which, in the first, place, will be made up both men and women." The new society plans to organize the state thoroughly. A central organizing committee of members representing- all parts of the state will be the executive and administrative body. The state will be divided into counties, legisla tive districts, wards and precincts, arid each division will have its local leader and organization. The club organized today will organize Hennepin county. Ramsey county will be in th^ hands of the Woman's Welfare league of St. Paul. Officers of the club hav« not been elected. The following committees are planned: Extension work, to be known as the women voters' committee, to extend the organization throughout the county. Education, to reach not only voters, but also non-votBrs, women and chhil dren, and educate them in woman suf frage. This committee will try to get every organization, from business men's clubs to sewing circles, to listen to a suffrage speech at least once a. year. Junior, to convert the students of university and public schools and young people in factories and depart ment stores. There will also be a membership committee and a literary committee to keep suffrage literature is circulation. The ultimate purpose is to carry a bill for a constitutional amendment through the legislature next session. i Fruity Transformation.

The year started with a membership of 191,346, Mr. Beers said, and 14,779 were added to the rolls by muster, transfer and reinstatement. The losses were as follows: By death 11,338 by honorable discharge 435 by transfer 1,764 by suspension 6,976 by dis honorable discharge 63 by delinquent reports 4,283, and by surrender of charter 1,039, making a total loss, par tially offset by gains, of 25,898. Tho arte of mortality based on the mem bership, was 6.28 per cent. Another topic discussed at some length by Mr. Beers was the alleged discrimination in railroad rates to Chattanooga between the Grand Army and the confederate veterans, who held their reunion here ip May. "It would appear," he said, "that the services of the veterans of the union army and the consideration due them are held lightly in the estimation of the rail road authorities" The railroads of the south, however, gave the same rates to both camps of veterans, Mr Beers added, the alleged discrimina tion being in the north and against the union veterans. In this connec tion, he said: "The Southern Passenger associa tion, composed of railroads east of the Ohio rfcver, gave the same rate to the union'' veterans that they had given to the confederate veterans in May of this year, namely, 1 cent per mile. The re maining associations, except the Trunk Line association, located in New York and the Trans-Continental lines, fixed the rate at 2 cents per mile, which is, I believe, a higher rate than the Grand Army has paid in some years.

The railroads from New York to Washington made no reduc tion whatever in rates, but charged the full regular fare to" Washington, the gateway to the territory of the Southern Passengers' association, which rate is in excess of the prices regularly charged for excursion tickets good for ten days and largely in ex cess of mileage book rates for at least one year." Mr. Beers urged that (he pension committee present a bill to congress granting a pension of $75 a month to veterans who are blind. He also rec ommended that an effort be made to have reappealed tho law providing that widows of veterans who married after June 17, 1890, should not be entitled to pensions "The most of us are conversant with the causes that led to the passage of that law," he said. "It was neces sary and a proper law then, but since that time many honorable, kindly and affectionate women have married vet erans from the purest of motives and ministered to them in their last hours. It seems an injustice that such noble women should be made to suffer with the irresponsible class that the law was designed to reach. Surely a law can be framed that will separate the wheat from the chaff." 1 LAUNCH DAMAGED. Boat Strikes Pipe Concealed in Wa ter and Springs Leak. Minot, N.

Students may register on Thursday and Friday of -the preceeding week (September 18 and 19) if they wish. The propeller of the boat was knocked off and other damage was done- Bissel believes that the pipe was laid under the water for the pur pose of wrecking the boat. The teachers were on their way to Wildwood, where they were' going to hold a picnic. Following the accident they changed their plans and went to the home of Mrs. John Campbell, where they had lunch and spent the afternoon.

SUCCESS WITH CORN ATTRACTS SETTLERS FARMERS IN DRY STATES LOO FOR HOMES IN THE RED RIVER VALLEY. '4 Grand Forks, N. D., Sept. 18.—Moi^ new settlers will be attracted to north* western Minnesota and North Dakota this year as a result of the splendid showing made in raising corn thafl from any other single cause. Red rivef valley land men interested in bring* ing in new residents to this district expect to sec a new record of immi# grants established this season and next spring. i. Discouraged by their season's worlC without reward, farmers of the central states are coming to the northwest* They are seeing fine fields of grain, anct the f-orn is attracting their attentiod particularly. Cornfields are well ma tured in practically all sections of tha state. The farmers have gathered tht'ir seed for next year in greater quantity than ever before, and the prospectij are that next year will see a greatly increased corn acreage- In the St. Thomas, Pembina county district, about twenty Indian farmer# will make thc-ir permanent homes. Most of them have bought land there, andfc they will add to the business of a com munity that has heretofore been ham-, pered by the fact that, large acreagei( have been in the hands of outside own-* ers, who did not farm their own landi Land values are at a high point as a, result of the demand, and farmers ar« selling at from $50 to $85 an acre The new farmers are not driving out thr old ones, but are in most instanced purchasing land that is owned by non«» residents.
