A ‘‘man who shoots,” who gives promise of being the much- wanted aud long-searched-for Minneapolis bandit, has been captured at last in the very act of holding up a man—but in St. Paul and by a St. Paulite. Joyful news for the Minneapolis police force. ANOTHER CLAIM EXPOSED. The audacious and brazen claim made by Governor Johuson that it was he, in his inaugural mes- sage, who started Mr. Cole in his work for state development 18 answered most conclusively by the Minneapolis Journal. Says the Journal: Governor Johnson’s recom- mendations ~ referred to were made in recognition of move- ments startad years before he became governor, movements in which A. L. Cole had had a prominent hand. When in the legislature himself, the governor voted against drainage appropri ations, and it simply won’t do to claim that he is the father of drainage. That is ‘‘to laugh.” The state had been appropriat- ing money for drainage for years before that message was written In previous sessions Senator John A. Johnson had opposed the appropriations, and A. L. : | Cole had worked for them. When in the senate, Governor Johnson was not a pusher for good roads. A. L. Cole assisted in the fruitless attempt to pass a highway commission bill in the 1908 session, his first experience at the capitol. He was a good road advocate, like thousands of others, before that message was written, and the message did not tell him anything that he did not know already. As to immigration, A. L. Cole was a supporter in 1903 of the bill introduced by Representa- tive Jobn L. Oleson, creating a state immigration bureau. That bill failed of passage, but the contest stirred public sentiment, and Governor Johnson incorpor. ated the idea into his message It was no new thing to Mr. Cole or to any of the other members A. L. Cole was a worker in each of the three causes men- tioned, before Governor Johnson dignitied them with mention. Havinge said his say, the governor did nothing more. A.L. Colere- sumed work in 1905 where he had left off at the previous ses- sion, and by his energetic labors got results. He introduced the bill for a comprehensive system of dramnage, an idea which had not occurred to the governor, and followed it to passage. He introduced auwother immigration bureau bill and was successful in getting it enacted. He also fath- ered the law putting state .land purchasers on a homestead basis, another idea which did not or- iginate with the governor. Mr. Cole was a member of the sub-committee which took up the The Pioneer Limited leave Minneapolis at §:00 p.m. and St. Paul at 8:35 p. m. Ar- rives Union Station, Chicago, 8:556 a. m. the next day.

He never played the part of a trailer, seeking political glory and strutting in borrowed plumes, He went ahead and got: results, and it does seem that he should be conceded credit for what he accomplished, even by partisan opponents. The World’s Debt to Flowers. I have never known man or woman ‘who has not improved in character by becoming devoted to the affairs of flowers, and I venture to say that the world at large Is under the deepest obligation to pansies, violets, roses and lilles, to name but a few of the blos- soms that silently help the good angel of mankind.—Christian World, Exercising Dogs. Never take your dog out for a run directly after he has had a meal. If the exercise Is at all hard the food will remain undigested for hours. It is best not to allow a dog to play even directly after he has swallowed his dinner. In a little time he can do so, but do not encourage him to romp about. Got Him Mixed. / Miss Backbay —What I like about Henry James is the clarity of his style, his reserve force and his absolute mas. tery In the fleld of epigram and an- tithesis. Mr, Cahokia—Y-yes, but when it comes to the fast ball, you know, 1 think Walsh has got him skinned to death.—Chicago Tribune. Knew the Measure. . ““When you get your groceries today,” 8ald the butcher to his wife, “don’t go to. that little grocer next door to my shop.”. {/Why not?” she demanded. “Because he sent In yesterday and borrowed an old pair of scales.” THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER, MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 29, 1006, ' The Marvel of Notre Dame, Often as 1 have seen Notre Dame, the marvel of it never grows less. I go to Paris with no thought or time for it, busy about many other things, and then on my way over one of the bridges across the river perhaps I see it again on its island, the beautiful towers high above the high roofs of houses and palaces, and the view, now 80 familiur, strikes me afresh with all the wonder of my first Impression. The wonder only seems greater if I turn, as I am always tempted to, and walk down the quays on the left bank, the towers before me and with every step coming more and more complete- ly together, by the Pont Neuf, to the island and at last to the great square where Netre Dame fronts me in Its superb calm.—Elizabeth Robins Pen- nell In Century. Why He Quit the Game. “Take a hand?” queried Smith as Jones stood watching the poker game at the club. “No. Quit.” “What's the matter—cold feet?” “No. I always come out loser.” “I never saw you lose in my Jife.” “I know you never saw me, but 1 lose. If I happen to win a litttle here, my wife smilingly insists on my divid- Ing my winnngs when I go home. If I lose, I get a lecture on the evils of gambling, and the next day, in order to get even, my wife runs bills down town to the amount I lost. If I tell her I came out just even, she takes half the money to prevent my losing all 1 bave, 5o I am bound to lose.” The Dosen. In all the civilized countries of the world thirteen is referred to as being somebody’s “dozen.”” In America, Australia, Great Britain (present day) and several other lands that number I3 said to a “baker’s dozen.” In Italy it Is referred to as the “cobbler’s dozen,” there being a tradition that there was formerly a law which compelled cob- blers to put twelve tacks or nails round the edge of a boot heel. Finally, when the nails became cheap, a center nail was driven for luck. Warned In Time. A man visiting a lunatic asylum re- cently was conversing with some of the outdoor patients when a man rode up on horseback. The pace called for comment among the party, and one of the patieats sald he had seen a horse running much faster than that ome. “Oh,” exclaimed the visitor sotto voce, “I have seen a horse flylng.” “Dinna let the doctor hear ye sayin’ that, my man,” interjected an old Scotch luna- tle. There’s fouk In here for far less than fleein’ horses.” Intrepidity. Intrepidity 1Is an extraordinary strength of soul, which raises it above the troubles, disorders and emotions which the sight of great perils can arouse in it. By this strength heroes maintaln a calm aspect and preserve thelr reason and liberty in the most surprising and terrible accidents.— Rochefoucauld. The Helmet In the Schoolroom. German schoolmasters are said to have had much to do with the victory of the Germans in their late war with France, and in this connection Sir Henry Roscoe tells this incident of his Inspection of the professional school in Rouen, France: “Among the usual ob- Jects I noted with surprise a Prussian soldier’s helmet. On being asked why he placed it there the schoolmaster stated that it was picked up In the streefs of Rouen during the German Invasion. And he added that it was of great service to him, for when the scholars did not attend to their work be used to bring this down and put it In his desk and, pointing to it, say: ‘Now, if you do not make progress and learn properly this will happen to you again. The surest way to bring it ‘upon you is to neglect your studies and grow up.in ignorance and to become fn- ferior In intellectual training. The display of that helmet,’ explained the director, ‘never fails to bring the blush of shame to the cheeks of my students and to rouse their patriotism and their teal for their studies.’” ‘Women Cannot Cut Diamonds. “A lot of women seem to be possessed these days of an ambition to learn the trade of diamond cutting,” the New York Sun reports one jeweler as say- ing. “Every little while an applicant for a situation as an apprentice gives us a call. But we can't afford to give them a trial. They can never master the art. In other branches of the jew- elry trade women have made some un- ualified successes. Not one of Eve's aughters, from royalty down, I should say, that lsn’t an artist In the wearing of diamonds. Many are well versed In the tricks of buying and selling them, while others give excellent satisfaction In polishing and preparing them for the market. But when it comes to the real cutting of the stones they lack the patience, judgment and steadiness of nerve which constitute the expert’s stock in trade.” Impressive Evidence, The constable is an observant man, and his observation had its reward at | Marlborough street one morning. It ‘was the case of a hansom driver who had run into a four wheeler, and the constable maintained in the witness box that the hansom driver was drunk. “There was a bit of a dispute,” said the driver,” and the constable admit- ted as much. “You was a bit doubtful about me bein’ drunk, wasn't you now?” continued the driver solemnly. “I was, just a bit,” said the constable stolidly, “until I saw you taking down your own number on your coat sleeve.” —London Standard. As Seen From a Sauoun, Bense of danger you have of course none, for you are so aghast at the dan- gers run by your dear ones below from motors and bicycles and trains and 8as works and all the other things ter- restrial that all concern for your own safety goes, And the shocking alp they breathe and the horrid littl wormlike traing that burrow In an out of dark looking holes—how un- healthy the whole earthly existence seems to you as you glide motionless through the alr, with white clouds be- low you stretched out as a sort of sil- ver carpet at your feet and above you nothing but a limitless expanse of deep blue sky}—Bystander. The Laborers of Servia. Servia's laborer s at heart a simpia, . prosaic fellow. His attire Is conrse al- imost to the point of ungainliness— rough brown trousers of homespun, a coat a shade or two darker and edgel with a strip of black fleece; n peaked ‘woolen cap and a cane, and you have the picture. He is a tarmer on a small scale, and his hobby Is enising hogs which he turns into the. forests or flelds to fatten on mast. The rural life In Servia Is primitiy At sunup folks rise, take thelr rakl, or schnapps, and go to the fields to work, Their meal is brought to them at uoon and again In the evening, for they often work until sunset. And so life goes on and on, Across the bluffs that border the river a road runs parallel with the Danube, and here workmen are seen, dressed often in white suits with red girdles, striving to Lring from the earth tte grain that will not come. In Roumania and Bulgaria the grain lands are rich, but here the earth seems stubborn ani unproductive. So the laborer ekes out his existence as he may—the least in- teresting of all the laborers of southern Europe. The Swiss Fourth of July. Aug. 1 8 the Swiss Fourth of July, the national fete day. A traveler tells how he helped to celebrate it one year at one of the climbing centers in the Valais by eating the sumptuous dinner provided by the hotel without extra charge, applauding the fireworks dis- play and a bonfire lighted high on the mountain side and shouting “Rourra!” at the end ot a patriotic speech extoll ing the ancient milltary glorles and present republican democracy of Swit- zerland. Next morning came the strange sequel. The orator of the oc casion, the most distinguished native visitor In the place, was appealed to as one who would certainly know the name of the Swiss president, buf even Hebrews and the Sabbath. There Is not, and there never was in- tended to be, any such feeling of Purl- tanism or of Calvinism with regard to our day of rest as there is connected with the Lord's day of our neighbors, The Jewish Sabbath was to be a de- light, and we read that in the mediaeval ghetto dancing, among other recrea- tions, was common on that day. There is nothing contrary to the spirit of Judalsm In the playing of games or in- dulgence In any form of light recrea- tion on Saturday so long as it is com- bined with a due regard for the sacred claims of divine worship. —Jewish ‘World. T'he American Buffalo. The buffalo is the bulkiest living land animal native to North America. A full grown buffalo bull stands about five feet eight or ten inches at the shoulder and weighs about 1,80C pounds. But specimens of over six feet at the withers have been recorded, and Mr. Hornaday tells me that he weighed a living bull at 2,190 pounds. A full grown cow stands about four feet eight at the shoulders and, accord- ing to Audubon, weighs about 1,200 pounds, though Henry says seldom over 700 or 800 pounds. The lower weight seems to be nearer the average rum, but I have seen cows that stood as high and looked as heavy as ordinary bulls. — Ernest Thompson Seton in Scribner’s, Fish Sold Alive. Fleusburg, a seaport town on the east coast of Schleswig-Holstein, has an ex- cellent system of bringing to port fish which are intended for immediate con- sumption.- Instead of packing the fish In the hold of the vessel the fishermen use flat, oblong boxes, drilled with holes to allow free access of water, and Into these the live fish are placed as soon as caught and are towed under water. By this means the fish are kept alive until the harbor Is reached, and they are then taken out of the Loxes and sold alive on the quay, so that there can be no question as to their absolute freshness. —r Lucky Horseshoes. There is a right way and a wrong in the picking up of a horseshoe. I was walking with a country bred boy along a Somerset lane and saw one lying in the crumbling summer rut. “There is 8 horseshoe,” said I. The lad sprang forward, but stopped suddenly before his fingers touched the iron. -“But I won't pick it up,” said he, “or I shall spoil your luck.”” It may perhaps have been only a point of etiquette, but he assured me that a horseshoe of my, finding could bring luck neither to him nor to me if he touched it before me.— London Standard.
