KEEPS WATCH ON VENUS United States Gunboat WIill Not Per- mit Nicaraguan Warship to Bom- bard the City or Shell the Insur gents by Firing Over the Provisional Capital—Decisive Battle Expected in That Vicinity. Bluefields, Nicaragua, June 3.—Dr. Julian Irias, the representative on the Atlantic coast of. President Madriz, has issued a decree that vessels cleared for Blueflelds on or after June 1 may not enter the port without the permission of the Madriz government. American ships will, however, disre- gard the order. The decree sets forth that all ship- ping which cleared for Bluefields be- fore that date will be permitted to enter the harbor after the payment of custom duties at the custom house on Bluefields bluff, which was recently captured and is still held by the gov- ernment troops. The official decree was issued from aboard theé Nicaraguan war vessel Venus and if its provisions are ob- served it will mean that the coastwise trafic will be absolutely in the con- trol of President Madriz and the con- sequent weakening of the position of the insurgents at Bluefields. The United States gunboat Paducah | will not permit the Venus to bom- bard the city of Bluefields or to shell the trenches of the revolutionists on the inland side of the city by firing over the provisional capital. Whether the United States government will al- low the Nicaraguan government to say what vessels shall enter the chief Eastern seaport of the country and under what conditions such entry shall be made is a matter of doubt here. Hope for American Intervention. Hope is found in the fact that the decree may have been issued before Dr. Irias had been officially informed of the attitude at Washington toward the collection of custom duties at this port, Secretary Knox having decided that the insurgents, although driven off of the bluff and having abandoned the custom house to the government forces, may still collect customs at some other point, encouraged the be- llef that the American government will again intervene to the ultimate advantage of the revolutionists. The forces under General Lara are considered to be the flower of the government’s army and their aban- donment for the time at least of the attempt against Bluefields has given new courage to the insurgent com- mander, General Estrada, who had been keenly disappointed by the in- ability of his men under General Zele- don to hold the bluff and custom house. General Lara cannot retreat to any great distance because of the swamps. by which he is surrounded and which have been rendered impassable by re- cent heavy rains. -Accordingly, it ap- pears that the final issue may be fought out not far from the present positions of the contending armies. TALKS TO COLLEGE GIRLS President Points Out One Danger of Higher Education. Philadelphia, June 3.—“There is one danger of a college education and four years’ life under college influ- ences that it seems to me wise to warn against. It is the danger of dis- content with the surroundings of the home to which a college girl goes back after graduation and the yielding to the feeling that her own town or city does-not offer to her the oppor- tunities to which she is entitled to in the use of the education which she has acquired,” said President Taft in addressing the graduates of Bryn Mawr college on “Woman’s College Education.” He continued: “It gives her, after she is settled at home again, a ‘nil admirari’ spirit, a longing for something she does not have, a spirit of criticism toward ev- erything which surrounds her and a consequent inability to contribute to the happiness of those with whom she lives or comes in contact. This is not the right result of the higher edu- cation.” . THRTY COUNTIES * REPRESENTED Northern Minnesota Development Association Meets. Crookston, Minn,, June 8.—Thirty counties of Northern Minnesota are banded together to boost this section of the state.

SHARP LANGUAGE IS USED Members of Upper House of Congress Show Anger. ‘Washington, June 3.—During a dis- cussion with Senator Sutherland on one of his amendments to the railroad bill in the senate Senator La Follette told the Utah senator in sharp lan- guage that he would be called to ac- count for his record. In language just as sharp Suther- land replied that he already had had such experience and he was willing to meet it again. An amendment to the bill offered by Senator Overman, regulating the suspension of state laws by the issu- ance of injunctions in interlocutory proceedings in federal courts, was adopted, 33 to 28. It prohibits such a course except after hearing by three Jjudges. An amendment offered by Senator Burton requiring the interstate com- merce commission to report concern- ing uniform classifications and an- other by La Follette requiring rail- roads to keep in Washington agents who may accept service also were adopted. B The Crawford amendment modity- ing the commodity clause of the Hep- burn act of 1906 was defeated by a viva voce vote. 3 BRYAN AND HEARST RAP ROOSEVELT New York Editor Refers to-Him as a “Tin Soldier.” London, June 3.—William J. Bryan, lecturing before the Y. M. C. A. at Bed- ford, raised a laugh at the expense of Mr. Roosevelt, whom, however, he did not name, by saying that when he (Bryan) was traveling in a foreign country he did not discuss that coun- try’s politics. As an outsider, he said, he did not regard himself as sufficiently informed to enable him to discuss politics with intelligence. Moreover, as a guest of a foreign people, he would account it a poor repayment of their hospitality. to decant on confroversial subjects, which his entertainers understood bet- ter than himself,” ‘William R: Hearst has telegraphed to the Daily Mail from Paris a dis- patch violently attacking Mr. Roose- velt for his spsech at the Guildhall. Referring to Roosevelt's comparison between England in Egypt and the United States in Panama Hearst says: “Such foolish, frayed and fraudulent phrases dishearten and distress Ameri- cans of spirit. France’s work in Egypt can be compared with America’s in Panama, but England occupied Egypt upon false pretenses of temporary government and - has remained since upon the obvious basis of greed and exploitation. "The United States is being misrep- resented abroad by a tin soldier, a toy colonel; who, although' unwilling to submit to discipline for-the few days he served in the army, has been for- ever since trying to inflict military methods and arbitrary rule on his own people and others.” CAR OF CATTLE IS STOLEN Two South Dakota Men Are Charged \'Nlth Crime.

Paul, June 2—The bodies of Father Edward J. Walsh and Mrs. Nel- lie McGowan Gibbons, victims in the double murder . committed Sunday night by Mrs. Gibbons’ husband, Pat- rick J. Gibbons, were carried from the Church of St. Augustine in South St. Paul to their separate graves. Had the little frame house of worship been a vaulted cathedral the services for its dead pastor could not have been more: solemn. 2 Sixty members of the Catholic cler- gy, headed by Bishop J. J.

An old gentleman in a village not far from Glasgow breakfasted every morn- .ing on porridge and in order to save fuel ‘cooked a whole week’s supply every Saturday. One Friday morning the stuff seemed very cold &nd very salt, and he felt he must abandon the struggle to eat it.. But his stubborn nature forbade any such thought. So he fetched the whisky from the cup- board, poured out a glass and placed it before him on the table. “Now, Sandy,” said he, “if ye eat that parritch ye'll hae that whisky, ant if ye don’t ye won’t” He stuck again at the last spoonful; but, keeping his eye steadily on the glass of whisky, he made a bold, brave effort and got it down. Then he slowly and carefully poured back the whisky into the bottle, with a broad grin, as he said to himself, “Sandy, my lad, 1 did ye.that time, ye auld fulel”—Dundee Advertiser. One Hair Astray.

L XL X K KR KRR K X + Novel Seed Weed ‘Collection. E —_—t W. 8. Oswald, Horticultural Divi-. ¥ sion, Minnesota Experiment Station, ” - oo ol ele oo ol oo oo obe el o ol oo ol o o o oo Weeds cause an actual loss of many millions of dollars every year to farm- ers. The average farmer hardly rea- lizes ‘the loss caused by weeds. The eradication of weeds is a much dis- cussed question at present, but little is sald about preventing weeds from getting onto the farm. There are many natural agencies, such as wind, water, anilals, etc, which cause the spread of weeds. Prevention in such cases is almost impossible. There is 8till anotber.manner in which weeds are brought on the farm; that is, by sowing seed which has mixed with it many seeds. A large percentage of the weeds ure put on the farm by the farmer himself, who actually plants weed seeds when he plants his other seed. In most cases a farmer sows foul seed because he is ignorant of the fact and is not familiar with these Seeds. Every farmer should be just as famillar wich the bad weed seeds as he is with seeds of wheat, clover, tim- ethy, etc. The Minnesota Agricultural Experi- ment Station, through its division of botany and plant pathology, is trying to educate the farmers of the state to sow only pure seed, and in this way aid them in a partial solution of the weed problem. The accompanying cut shows a novel method which the division of botany and plant pathology has devised in preparing a weed seed collection, which can be sold to the farmer at a very nominal sum. Twen- ty-four different weed seeds are in each case. The case (seven inches long and five inches wide) is made of cardboard, in which twenty-four three- fourths inch holes are punched. A back is pasted on, leaving twenty-four spaces in which the weed 'seeds are placed. Glass is then passe-partouteé over the top. The seeds are loose so that they can be shaken and examined in any position, and the glass keeps the different seeds from mixing. Un- less the case is broken the collection will always remain authentic. Any or- dinary lens can be used in examing the seeds. Weed seed collection are often prepared in bottles. A bottle collection is not as-desirable as this little weed seed case; first, because the corks are often removed from the bottles and some of the seed taken out for examination. In putting the seed back very often it becomes mixed, and in a short time the collec- L X LR XX One-half of the sample seed case sent out by the Minneiota Agricultural College. - tion is not authentic. Second, a lens cannot be used in examining the seed in a bottle as readily as in this seed case. And, third, the cost of the seed cade to the farmer {s much less. This collection is to be sent out in series. Every year a case of twenty-four weed seeds will be prepared so that in time | ! the farmer will get a large collection of weed seeds. On the back of this case-are printed the common and bo- tanical names of the twenty-four weeds whose seeds are found in the case and there are also directions for making home tests of seeds for purity and germination. This case should interest any farmer who is desirous of becoming familiar with the seeds of the foul weeds which infest his farm. ook ook bbb kbt The average farm in Minne- sota is yielding only about 4 per cent profit on investment. This suggests the need of a better method of handling busi- ness-on the farm and a better farm management. The facts are shown by carefully kept statistics by the Minnesota Ex- periment Station, covering a. period of several years, on a number of farms in dif crent parts of the state. ook kol kb a3 e a0 e 0 e a8 o o kbbb p bbb b d bbb Valuable Aid to Rural Teachers.
