D., March 23. — The members of the state board of rail- road commissioners, whose headquar- ters are in this city, have rendered a decision in the matter of the petition of the people of Vienna asking for the construction of a track connecting the lines of the Great Northern and Mil- waukee railroad companies at that place.

Minnesota has taken a leading po- sition among the states of the Union in the enactment and enforcement of child labor laws, according to a spe- cial report prepared by Julius Moersch of the state labor bureau. Minnesota is one of the twelve states that have specific laws prohib- iting the employment of children un- der fourteen years in factories, stores, workshops and similar places, and one of the twenty states prohibiting the employment of children under fourteen years of age in mines. There are fourteen states in which it is un- lawful for children under fourteen years of age to work at any employment during school hours, and Minnesota is in the list, although the law of this state allows such children to work in certain cases of necessity as when the parents are too poor to feed and clothe the child. This state is also among the ten states requiring children under sixteen years to attend school during the en- tire year. The ten states are Minne- sota, Colorado, Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts, Montana, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. The following states have no law re- quiring attendance at school: Ala- bama, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Mis- souri, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia. There are six states in which. it is unlawful for children to work from 7 o’clock in the evening until 6 o’clock in the morning, and Minnesota is one of the six. The others are Ohio, Illi- nois, Oregon, Arkansas and Alabama. Practically the same law is in force in Michigan and New Jersey, where chil- dren may not work from 6 p. m. to 7 a.m. The prohibitive hours in other states is as follows: South Carolina, 8 p. m. to 6 a. m.; Wisconsin, 9 p. m. to 6 a. m.; Naw York, 9 p. m. to 6 a. m. In New York newsboys under fourteen years must not work after 10 p. m. Work at night is not pro- hibited or restricted in any way in Delaware, Georgia, Maryland and Ok- lahoma, Minnesota ranks twenty-fourth among the states and territories and the District of Columbia in the num- ber of illiterate children between ten and fourteen years. The number in this state is 1,365, as compared with 51,190 in North Carolina, 51,536 in South Carolina, 55,691 in Louisiana, 63,329 in Georgia and 66,072 in Ala- bama. The ten having the fewest il- literate children all have very much smaller population than Minnesota. They are Wyoming, 72; Oregon, 175; Idaho, 209; Utah, 230; Nevada, 275; Vermont, 287; Washington, 340; Mon- tana, 374; Hawaii, 394; District of Columbia, 398. Col. White Is Head of G. A. R. The annual encampment of the G. A. R. of Minnesota closed a two-day’s session in Minneapolis after electing officers and adopting a resolution peti- tioning congress to assist in establish- ing a small national park near the site of Fort Ridgely, the scene of the Sioux.

He served throughout the war and was promoted through the vari- ous ranks to a command of a regiment of New York cavalry with the rank of lieutenant colonel and he was brevet- ed colonel of the United States volun: teers. He was breveted by Gen. Sher- idan for “conspicuous gallantry in ac- tion.” Commander White appointed Orton 8. Clark adjutant general and EB. N. Leavens assistant quartermaster gen- eral for another year. Delegates and alternates to the national convention at Boston in September were elected as follows: Delegates—George L.

The state labor bureau has complet- ed an inspection of 574 retail meat markets, with especial reference to hours of work, wages paid and ob- servance of the Sunday closing law. In some smaller places the inspectors found the shops open on Sundays, and by bringing the proprietors together and explaining the law, were able to get them to agree to close on Sundays. There were 185 establishments vis- ited in Minneapolis, employing 604 persons, and 108 in St. Paul, with 376 employes. The average work day in Minneapolis was 11.46 hours, in St. Paul, 10.63 hours; Duluth, 11.04; Wi- nona, 11.45; Mankato, 10.87; Still- water, 11.37, and other towns visited averaged 12.65 hours. About 15 per cent of the employes received com- pensation outside of wages. Some re- ceiyed board and rooms and some a supply of meat. Wages paid meatcutters and butch- ers in St. Paul averaged $14.08 a week, and sausagemakers, $14.64. In Minneapolis meatcutters and butchers average $54 a month. WILL CUT PLANS TO SUIT PURSE. Manufacturers’ Building at the State Fair Grounds. The proposed manufacturers’ build- ing at the state fair grounds will be smalier than the plans of the architect originally provided to keep within the appropriation of $30,000 available for the building. The state fair board opened bids for the new building at the Merchants hotel at St. Paul re- cently. Ten bids were received but all of them exceeded materially the ap- propriation of $30,000. After much discussion it was de- cided to have the architect, Clarence H. Johnson, alter the plans so that the cost of the building will be within the appropriation. The changes will be communicated to the bidders and the board will meet Monday at the Mer- chants to open the new bids. . Secretary E. W. Randall said that in reducing the cost of the building none of the architectural beauty will be sacrificed, but that the saving will be made by having the building smaller than originally planned. STATE PUBLIC SCHOOL BUILDING. Board Authorized to Borrow $10,000 for Reconstruction. The state board of control will re- construct the administration building at the state public school at Owatonna so as to be as nearly’ fireproof as modern ingenuity can make it. Gov. Van Sant, the state auditor and State Treasurer Julius Block, in accordance with a law of 1899, passed a resolu- tion authorizing the board to expend $10,000 from the state revenue fund in addition to the $33,095 which the state received from the insurance. These sums will be sufficient for the fire- proof construction. The general outlines of the building will be the same as before, but a few changes will be made in the arrange- ments of rooms and in other ways. The tower will not be so high as be- fore and the interior furnishings will be fireproof instead of wood. The joists will be steel and the arches will be tile. The old walls of the building will be used. TURNING IN MONEY. February Receipts of State Institu- tions Paid Into Treasury. Miscellaneous receipts of state in- stitutions for February have been turned into the state treasury by the state board of control as follows: Anoka asylum, $21.65; Hastings asylum, $172.10; Fergus Falls hospital, $246.77; Rochester hospital, $359.19; St. Peter hospital, $239.46; Faribault school for blind, $36.75; school for the deaf, $152.44; school for feeble- minded, $651.83; Owatonna pubiic school, $89.39; Red Wing training school, $157.17; St. Cloud reformatory, $1,291.69; Stillwater prison, $7,815.14; Duluth normal, $66.44; Mankato nor- mal, $246.65; St. Cloud normal, $141; Moorhead normal, $245.45; Winona normal, $331.55.

The Chicago, Burlington & Quincy has reported its Minnesota gross earn- ings for 1903 to the state auditor. The earnings were $341,244.92, on which the 3 per cent tax is $10,237.35. The Great Northern paid another $50,000, making $450,000 paid on ac- count of 1903 taxes. Swamp Land Patents. The state auditor’s office has re- ceived patents on 25,500 acres of swamp land from the federal land of- fice at Washington. The tracts have been claimed for the state for years, and the claims have not been dis- puted, but the patents have just been issued. The land is chiefly in St Louis county. Mrs. Ellen Bracht has brought ar action against the city of Hastings for $7,000 damages for injuries from a fal] in which her arm was broken, WESTERN CANADA HAS _ AN EXCELLENT CLIMATE. The Saskatchewan Valley Very Highly Favored, An interesting feature of Western Canada is its climate. Those who have made a study of it speak highly of it. The Canadian Government Agents are sending out an Atlas, and at the same time giving valuable in- formation concerning railway rates. etc., to those interested in the country. As has been said, the climate is ex- cellent. The elevation of this part of Canada is about 1,800 feet above the sea, about twice that of the average for Minnesota. It is a very desirable altitude. The country has a very equable climate taking the seasons through. The winters are bright and the summers are pleasantly warm. R F. Stupart, director of the meteorologi- cal service for Canada, says: “The salient features of the climate of the Canadian northwest territories are a clear, bracing atmosphere dur- ing the greater part of the year, and a medium rainfall and snowfall. The mean temperature for July at Winni- peg is 66, and Prince Albert 62. The’ former temperature is higher than at any part of England, and the latter is very similar to that found in many parts of the southern countries.” At Prince Albert the average daily} maximum in July is 76 and the mini-' mum 48, Owing to this high day tem-: perature with much sunshine, the; crops come to maturity quickly. Moisture is ample in the Saskatche wan valley, being about 18 inches an- nually. It is notable that about 75 per cent of the moisture falls during the crop months. Thus, Western Can- ada gets as much moisture when it is needed and with several hours more sunshine. daily than land further south gets during the growing season, it is not difficult to understand why crops mature quickly and yield bountifully. Winter ends quickly, sowing is done during April and sometimes in March. Harvest comes in August, about the middle. Cyclones, blizzards, dust and sand storms are unknown. Fueer Customs in Japan. Japanese ladies have been known to do without stockings to maintain the harmony between beautiful French slippers and magnificent French evening dresses. I have been served by a Japanese hosier who did without everything he did not supply himself—he had a shirt, a collar and tie and scarfpin and studs, but no trousers. And the effect of their ab- senee was heightened by his wearing braces because he sold them. The Japanese do not kiss. If a Jap- anese girl knows how to kiss it shows the work of a foreign instructor; she does it as an accomplishment, not as an enjoyment. The Japanese have no pens and ink, but they make a very good shift with a painting brush. The Japanese houses have no chimneys and you are never warn enough until the house catches fire. The Japanese have beef and no mutton. Japanese bells, like Japanese belles, have no tongues. Japanese snakes have no poison; Japanese music has no har- mony. The Japanese alphabet is not an alphabet, but a selection of seventy useful ideograms to dispense with the 30,000 in use by the Chinese.—Bueer Things About Japan. For Growing Girls. West Pembroke, Me., March 21.— Mrs. A. L, Smith of this place says that Dodd’s Kidney Pills are the best remedy for growing girls. Mrs. Smith emphasizes her recommenda- tion by the following experience: “My daughter was thirteen years old last November and it is now two years since she was first taken with Crazy Spells that would last a week and would then pass off. In a month she would have the spells again. At these times she would eat very little and was very yellow, even the whites of her eyes would be yellow. “The doctors gave us no encour- agement, they all said they could not help her. After taking one box of Dodd’s Kidney Pills she has not had one bad spell. Of course we contin- ued the treatment until she had used in all about a dozen boxes, and we still give them to her occasionally, when she is not feeling well. Dodd’s Kidney Pills are certainly the best medicine for growing girls.” Mothers should heed the advice of Mrs. Smith, for by so doing they may save their daughters much pain and sickness and insure a healthy, happy future for them. ‘When a man takes up the reins of government he always finds himself behind a team of kickers.
