To Discuss Wide Range of Topies. Brussels, Jnue 28.—The perma- nent committee of the International Conference of Chambers of Commerce assembled here today to decide upon a list of topics to be discussed at the meeting of the conference to be held in Boston next September. The pur- pose of the conference is to facilitate the commercial intercourse of na- tions, and to promote cordial rela- tionship among them. The coming session will be the first ever held in the United States. It will give con- sideration to a number of important questions affecting international com- mercial relations. The establishment of a permanent international court of arbitral justice, uniform laws con- | cerning exchange and bank checks, international postal reforms, the reg- ulation of international expositions, international co-operation for the unification of agricultural statisties, and the compilation of a program for international maritime union are among the subjects slated for consid- eration at the Boston meeting. Memorial to Rousseau. Paris, June 28.—In honor of the memory of Jean Jacques Rousseau, the famous writer and philnsopher whose birth occurred two hundred years ago today, an imposing memo- rial was unveiled this afternoon in the Pantheon. The memorial group, which was designed by M. Bartho- lome, the French sculptor, represents Philosophy seated between two fig- ures symbolizing Nature. A medal- lion bears a profile bas relief of Rous- seau’s head. Assessors Meeting. J. G. Armson, of Stillwater, met some of the assessors of Beltrami county yesterday. Mr. drmson is a member of the state tax commission having succeeded Frank McVey to that position. The state law requires the commission to visit each county at least once in two years and Mr. Armson assisted local assessors with their books while here. He also heard some abatement cases. Strikers Back at Work. St. Paul, June 28.—(Special to the Pioneer) —Striking freight handlers in St. Paul who have been out on a sympathetic strike with the railway men in Chicago have returned to work. The men broke the strike on their own initiative. THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER OLD ABE MARTIN IN FLESH Says He Never Heard of Kin Hub- bard, But Knows All the Family. “It ain’ s'much whut yuh do es where yuh are when yuh do it.” He was Abe Martin in the flesh from his brogan square-toed shoes to the three hairs awry at the crown of his head and his homely philosophy. “Hullo there, Abe,” gaid Deputy Prosecutor McCarty, scanning in as- tonishment the jeaned figure. “How'd You get into police court?” Judge Collins looked him over from head to foot. Abe grinned good na- turedly and continued: OIL POWER ON THE CCEAN Success of tnternal Combustion En- gine May Cause Revolution in Shipping Industry. A great revolution in the shipping industry probably unequaled in any period of its history, was predicted in a recent interview in London by Sir Marcus Samuel, head of the Shell Trading and Transport company, 0w- ing to the success of the internal com- bustion engine as a motive power for vessels. “It insures,” he said, “a saving in cost and a great saving of space, weight and crew. Cleanliness would be increased and also the comfort of passengers. It would insure safety “Fer instance, if I'd took three drinks down home nobody’s’ thot much *bout it—up here t’ Ind’nplis the p'lice arrest me an’ I ain’ got a thing agin ‘em fer it, nuther.” The semblance to Abe Martin was 80 striking in outline that some one believed he had found the original, the artist creator’s original. “Do you know Kin Hubbard?” “Sure, I know all the Hubbards down ¢’ Clayton—mighty nice folks, tew. ‘Who'd yuh say—Kin. They ain’ none of 'em named Kin—not as I knows of.” He denied strenuously being from Brown county. He was from Hen- | dricks, he sald. i “An m’name’s like my daddy before me. An we're plain farmers. I don’t know where folks get this Abe Martin they all call me. I aln’ mever read nothin’ ’bout no president er congress- man uf thet name. Some one said his picture wuz in the paper, but I ain’t never seen it.” And Judge Collins dismissed the charge of drunkenness and let him go. oy NOT THE AUSTRIAN EAGLE Little Visitor to the Zoo Knew That That Bird Has Two Heads. g Pt . Never try to tell anything to a ho? who has gone to these modern public schools. Why, those institutions of learning teach more things that you @éver heard of when you were young, that you’ve never heard of since you were not young. Here’s a modern instance: A six-year-old boy was taken to the zoo last Sunday by his forty-year-old father. They saw the elephant, they saw the monkeys, they saw the ox. Finally they got to the orinthological collection. The kid noticed an inter- esting bird in the eagle cage, and he asked: “Papa, what's that bird?” Papa looked at the label and replied, “That is an Austrian eagle.” “G’'wan!” said the boy; “it ain’t no such thing.” “Yes it fs—# says so in the cata- logue.” “I don’t care what it says in th’ catalogue. I got eyes. This here bird ain’t got but one head. Th’ Austrian eagle has two heads, and I know fer I've saw a pitcher of it on flags!” As to Fate. Corra Harris, author of “The Re- cording Angel,” makes some keen ob- servations on the destinies of human beings in general. One of the repre- sentative bits of her philosophy fol- lows: “The biography of humans is made up more of what they plan to do than of what they really achieve, if it is set down literally. You work hard with a certain aim in view. You pur- pose to arrive with your collateral all properly arranged for the event. It is clear sailing. Then fate takes the gripes and inadvertently kicks you under the fifth rib; and there you are, get back about ten years. Your gramd- mother died without leaving you the inheritance you had every reason to expect. You have to get up and make your own fortune. Or, the ballots are counted, and you are not elected. You have to run again. God sees to it that you do not butt the stars every time you fetch a surge. It is provi- dential precaution against your de- struction of the solar system.” Inclination to Get Into Ruts. ‘We are all too much inclined to get into ruts. For one thing it is easy. For another, some of us dislike doing the unusual for fear of being talked about or laughed at. Laziness, indif- terence, or self-consciousness holds us tight and fast in the same routine of living year in and year out. ‘Women shut themselves out of much that is live and vital by not joining some of the woman’s clubs that are now so important a part of life. They are shutting out whole uni- verses when they confine themselves to one line of reading. Indeed, one can create many new worlds for herself by bringing .into one’s life new interests. It 1s one of the most effective ways of keeping young. Englishman -Norwegian Knight. King Haakon of Norway has cre- ated Angus Watson of the firm of An gus Watson & Co. a first class knight of the Norwegian Order of St. Olaf; and has given him the insignia of the order. This order, which i8 very rarely con- ferred except to Norwegians, has been. given to Mr. Watson with the consent. of the British sovereign. This decoration has been granted 88 an acknowledgment of the serv- fces that Mr. Watson has been able to render the Norwegian fishing industry in various parts of the world in con- nection with the sale of the succulent m-whleh is familiar to all as “skip- e e . S 1 o 8 e s iy from boiler explosions and spontane- ous combustion and many other ad- vantages. “Those who argue about the in- creased cost of oil do mot understand. You must remember that one ton of oil is equal to four tons of coal and that the larger power internal combus- tion engine makes for greater economy in using ofl. I think it is a great pity the United States, with its immense oil resources, is not taking a more ac- tive part in the development of the internal combustion marine engine and that the largest oll company has not done more to encourage the trade. “As an instance, this oil company went to Roumania, but from one point of view it was singularly unsuccessful. The production after some years' working reached an average of about fifteen thousand tons a month. We went there years later and our pro- duction is 50,000 tons a month. I have elways maintained that the oil supply of the world is more likely to be met In the Borneo fields than in any oth- er. There we have unlimited supplies, 80 the question of prohibitive cost need not enter into the reckonings of the maintenance of motor driven ves- sels.” SHE GAVE HER AGE AS 34 But the Witness Was Flustered and Told Her Bust Measurement by - Mistake. One of the court attaches tells of 8 rather amusing incident which oec curred one day in municipal court. An important criminal case was pending. All the testimony was in, and the at- torneys had finished their arguments. It was a tense moment. The court had turned to the jury and was about to make his final charge when a weman arose in the audience. "“Can I say a word?” she asked the judge. The court gave permission. The woman had been one of the chief wit: nesses for the defense. “What effect would it have on my testimony if it became known that 1 told a falsehood on the witness stand ?” -she asked. Attorneys for both sides leaped up and the jury looked startled. “That all depends upon whether the testimony you falsified {8 material to the issue,” said the court severely. “But I couldn’t help it,” said the woman who was on the verge of tears. “They made me s0 excited with their old questions. They asked me. how old I was, and I said thirty-four, but was so flustered that I gave my bust measurement.” — Milwaukee Free Press. Fashion a Shy Bird. Fashion is a shy bird, and an ob- servant critic has noticed that tail- ors are not advising the frock coat and fancy waistcoat, which are becom- Ing unropular because Mr. Seddon was 50 dressed in the dock. The passing of the frock coat will be wel- comed by many, and by many who do oot remember the execution of Mrs. Manning in 1849, who swung in black satin, and made that material unfash- lonable for many years. There is an opening for reformers who wish to change the fashions and are willing to go to the stake for their belief. One can foresee a woman who will commit a murder in order to be hang- ed in a hobble skirt, so that there shall be no more hobble skirts in the ftashionable world. And the enthusi- astic vegetarian might kill some oth- er donkey and die in leather boots, with the idea of bringing vegetable boots into fashion. There are many possibilities for the reformers who will consent to wear the wrong clothes on the right occasion.—London Chron- lcle, World That Was New to Her. Tommy Conovan, a property man in Cleveland, possesses among his per- sonal “props” a number of amusing storles. This is one of them: “I used to be on the door at the Ly- ceum. One night when Joseph Mur- phy was playing there an old Irish lady approached with a ticket in her hand. Evidently she had never been In a playhouse before and was some- what bewildered. She watched the line passing by me and listened as I called out ‘upstairs’ or ‘downstairs’ rccording to the tickets handed me. Finally she slowly approached and gave me her coupon. “‘Upstairs,’ I called, “‘Whisper,’ she sald, as she leaned toward me, ‘can you tell me on. what floor I can see Joseph Murphy? * Barnum’s Publle. P. T. Barnum’s tent manager came to him one day and complained that e could not move the crowds from the big tent after the show. Barnum considered a moment. “Get Sam to stand near the door and yell out ‘This way to the egress!’* He advised with twinkling eyes~ Short Storles. - R Commencing Saturday Morning June 29 Everything in Millinery and Ladies’ Furnishing Goods to be sold at a sacrifice.
