ST, PETERSBURG . 4 Li GUARD FOR AMERICAN EMBASSY ARRIVES FROM CRUISER MINNEAPOLIS. TURNING AGAINST STRIKERS SYMPATHY GIVES WAY TO DIGNATION — CONDITIONS UNBEARABLE. IN- j , St. Petersburg, via Eydtkuhnen, | ss East Prussia, Dec. 6—A guard for the Ay American embassy, consisting of marines under a petty officer, from \ : the United States cruiser Minneapo- lis, arrived here yesterday. Although there appears to be no foundation for the prevailing feags that an outbreak is imminent, the population continues in a state of anxious suspense. The garrison has now been rein- forced by forty-two battalions of in- fantry, fifteen squadrons of cavalry and twelve machine gun batteries. The government, it is reported, nar- rowly frustrated a plot whereby a thousand armed men had arranged to ° Raid the State Treasury. One of the conspirators, it is said, be- trayed his fellows, whereupon the leaders, knowing that their attack could be repulsed by the troops with great slaughter, abandoned it. a The extension of the strike of the : 3 telegraphers to the postal system is complete and the paralysis of busi- hi ness is increasing the danger of a financial crisis. The strike of the Moscow telephone . operators, who cut the wires and tore up the poles, has severed the last means of communication with the ancient capital. The present conditions are unbear- able. Sympathy with the poorly paid post and telegraph employes is now Turning Into Indignation against the strikers and the public is supporting a formidable movement which has been started by all classes to throw off the ‘yoke of the revolu- i tionaries. The government is encouraging the organizing of the forces. The “law | and order party” took the lead, which . is now being followed by the “Society of Strikebreakers,” but the most im- portant movement has been started under the leadership of Father Gapon, the former idol of the workmen, who, 4 since his residence abroad, has~ be- come convinced that Russia is not prepared for a republic, and is appeal- ing to his old comrades to cut loose from the revolutionary agitators, The latter already charge that Father Gapon has been bought and that he is a traitor to the cause of the people. Father Gapon, however, is sincere, and his influence undoubtedly is great. : Dispersed by Cossacks. After a meeting of telegraphers had been dispersed by Cossacks the strikers issued another proclamation accepting the challenge of the govern- ment and reiterating their determina- tion to fight to the end. . Neither newspapers no letters have arrived from abroad for three days. The mutiny at Voronezh, which it is understood has now been sup- pressed after considerable bloodshed, has been followed by a much more serious outbreak at Kieff. This is the real secret of the declaration of martial law at Kieff. Czar Reviews Troops. The emperor reviewed the Simnoy- ski regiment at Tsarkoe Selo. Grand Duke Vladimir and Grand Duke Nich- olas Nicholaievitch were present. The emperor drank to the health of the regiment. His majesty appeared to ; be in good health. Warships Protect Swedes. | Stockholm, Dec. 6. — The Afton- } bladet says that two war vessels will be dispatched to St. Petersburg to pro- tect the Swedes there and to bring home those who wish to return. The gunboat Psilander is preparing to leave for St. Petersburg with the Swedish minister, who is returning | to his post. | The government has chartered a merchant vessel which will proceed to Riga. ¥ Will Be Fatal to Witte. London, Dec. 6. — The correspond- ent of the Times at St. Petersburg, under date of Dec. 4, says: In well informed circles it is be- lieved that the strike will prove fatal "hl to the ministry of Count Witte. I hear that M. Guehkoff or Prof. Migou- lin, the latter an avowed opponent of the premier, is likely to take over the government with a program including the distribution of the state domain among the peasants and old age pen- sions for workmen. ‘ | WITNESS ASSAULTED. Man Who Testified Against a Con- gressman Is Brutally Attacked. Washington, Dec. 6. — A telegram was received at the interior depart- + ment stating that one of the principal | witnesses against Congressman Will- ) ison of Oregon, in the cases grow- ing out of the land frauds in that state, was brutally assaulted and seri- ously injured by the town marshal of Pineville, Mr. Williamson’s home, for . having testified against Williamson in the recent trials. South Dakota. SIX SPANIARDS ARE INJURED AND MANY MORE MAY BE DROWNED. Havana, Dec. 6.—A wild panic on board the French line steamer La Champagne yesterday afternoon re- sulted in the injury of six and the possible drowning of from three to six persons. The La Champagne ar- rived from French and Spanish ports with 350 cabin and 1,400 steerage pas- sengers. The steamer had a small cargo and but little coal, and after anchoring and discharging the cabin passengers she began coaling.. At the time she was slightly listed, and the crowd of Spanish immigrants swarming to her side to watch the lighters caused her to list more and to take on a quarttity of water in her open coal ports. Some of the lighter men cried out that the ship was sinking and the frightened immigrants struggled and fought for a chance to escape. Some 400 men and women jumped to the Hghters and a score of men into the water. A few of these swam ashore and some of them clung to small boats, The officers of the ship and the port police finally calmed the excited immigrants. A check of the passenger list r vealed the fact that six passengers are missing. It is not definitely known that these were drowned as it is pos- sible they reached shore. SAYS TOGO IS COMING SURE. Minister Griscom Returns From Tokio —Gov. Wright Also Returns. San Francisco, Dec. 6. — Minister Griscom, America’s diplomatic rep- resentative at Tokio, who arrived here yesterday on the Manchuria, con- firmed the report that Admiral Togo proposed to visit foreign waters. He says that the admiral informed him of his intention to take a Japanese fleet to England and the United States next year. Admiral Togo proposes to go via ihe Suez canal, but is unde- cided as to what route he will take in returning home. Gen. Luke E. Wright, governor of the Philippines, also came over on the Manchuria, and said that the primary object of his visit was to be present in Washington when the bids for the construction of railways in the isl- ands were opened. + TO PENSION THE LONELY. New Jersey Woman Sends Odd‘ Bill to the Senate. Washington, Dec. 6.—Pensions for the lonely are provided for in a peti- tion laid before the senate yesterday by Vice President Fairbanks. The pe- tition is signed by Mrs. Sarah Miran- da Clymer of Bridgeton, N. J., who asks that a bill -be passed instructing the United States treasurer to make monthly payments of not less than $39 nor more than $500 to all persons “alone in the world when they cannot maintain themselver.” The » petition was referred to the committee on ed- ucation and labor.

Bullock Gets Marshalship. Washington, Dec. 6. — Capt. Seth Bullock of Deadwood was yesterday nominated by President Roosevelt for the United States marshalship in Mio Sry ate Secretary H: G. Hays Tells What the Drain- | the state anditor, age League Aims to Do-- Work / Now in Progress. Minnesota is one of the richest states in the Union in the way of op- portunitjes for development according to H. G. Hays of Bemidji, secretary of the State Drainage league. Mr. Hays Says millions of acres in the northern portion of the state can be reclaimed for practical use in agricultural work by the expenditure of a comparative- ly small sum, and he outlines to some extent the work of the drainage league in its efforts to secure the ad- vantages of this land for the people of Minnesota. Mr. Hays sald: “While Minnesota has no arid lands | needing irrigation, this state has ren- dered substantial aid to the men who have brought irrigation’ to the public attention, and has contributed hun- dreds of thousands of dollars in the past few years to the irrigation pro- paganda. The business men of Min- nesota are deeply interested in any movement tending to improve condi- tions, hence the reclamation of sever- al million acres of desert lands in the ‘West and South was read to mean an increase of territory tributary which ‘would become ours for trade and com- merce. “New territory means greater chances for legitimate business of all kinds, mére wealth-creating power, de- mand for more manufactured articles, more railway earnings. This being true, Minnesota should now turn her attention to Minnesota and take up the home situation. “This state embraces practically 85,- 000,000 acres of land and has a popula- tion of 1,900,000. Development south of the center line of the state has progressed more rapidly than north of that line, for we find four-fifths of the population in the south half of the state and only one‘fifth in the north half. In the north half of the com- monwealth, an area larger than the State of Ohio, we find a population of 300,000, and an assessable valuation equal to one-third of the entire state. We also find in Northern Minnesota rich deposits of iro nore and great forests of valuable timber. The iron ard steel factories, the lumbermen and loggers, the ore and lumber car- rying railways are reaping rich har- vests in the north, and have for years past won from mine and forest the millions that have enriched them- selves and the state’s treasury. “Great as the possibilities were and are in ore and lumber, recent years have demonstrated that, there yet re- mains in the north a still greater re- source, a resource that has never failed to be productive, a resource upon which are dependent all other in- dustries—agriculture. “Northern Minnesota lands have been demonstrated to be as fertile, as productive, as Profitable to Cultivate as the land of any other section, and for the last year or two farmers have been pouring into that section, follow- ing the trail of the lumber cruiser and the prospector, establishing homes on the sites of deserted camps. The north has given her wealth of pine and ore to enrich the few—the north retains her fertile soil to enrich the many, and to provide homes for the man with the plow and enduring pros- perity for the cities and villages which his labor makes possible. berman and the miner are being suc- ceeded by the farmer and homebuild- er, and development in the north is at- tracting the attention of thousands. “The subject of drainage is a new one to the great mass of people of Minnesota, although it has been be- fore them in various ways for a num- ber of years. There are a number of laws on the statute books, yet none of them has been entirely: satisfactory, and it remained for A. L. Cole of Walker to frame a bill which passed the last session of the legislature and comes nearer to fitting the needs of the state than anything yet attempted. An organization was decided upon, and at Bemidji on June 10 last, follow- ing the first drainage convention ever held in the North, the Minnesota Drainage league was organized, with A. G. Bernard of Gass Lake president, and myself secretary. Steps were taken to perfect this organization, and at Crookston, on Aug. 1, was held the first annual meeting of the league. “The former officers were re-elected, and since that convention these offi- cers have labored hard to get the sub- ‘ject of drainage to the attention of the state. We have enlisted the press in behalf of the movement and have succeeded in making drainage one of the most important topics of the day, and have raised for solution a problem the solving of which Means Millions of Money, the happiness of hundreds of thou- It Meant Ruin. A certain close-fisted old gentleman pulled up his horse and trap at the door of a shop the other day, and beck- "oned to a seedy looking individual who was singing in the gutter. “Hold my horse a minute, will you?” he remarked. - The singer stopped im the middle of & verse and took up a position at the eee ed the The lum- sands. of people and the prosperity of an empire. “In Northern Minnesota there are approximately 11,000,000 acres of swamp lands which, if drained, would make the very best farming land, as the soil is of the rismest kind. These lands would afford homes of 160 acres each to nearly 700,000 settlers. A topo- graphical survey is now being made of these swamp lands. The state’s en- gineers, John Abercrombie and George A. Ralph, are now in the field with corps of surveyors, and say that prac- tically all of this submerged land may be reclaimed, and that the cost of draining will be from 75 cents to $1.25 per acre. “Nearly 5,000,000 acrew of these lands belong to the state, and one of the objects of the league is to educate the people of Minnesota to the bene- fits to be derived from drainage so that the next legislature will make an appropriation large enough for the drainage of these lands. The state could not make a better investment, nor one that would be more profitable to the people. “Years ago J. J. Hill realized the importance of drainage and gave $25,- 000 toward draining some of the north- western counties, which have since then invariably produced the best crops. “Besides the state swamp lands, the government, as trustee of the Indians, holds nearly 2,000,000 acres of lands in the Red Lake and other reserva- tions, subject to homestead entry, and 4,000,000 acres of land outside reserva- tions, not yet on the market. On ac- count of their swampy condition these lands are not taken. Tt is the intén- tion of the congressional delegation to Washington to endeavor to obtain a reimbursable appropriation for the purpose of draining these reservations and other government lands, thus making them fit for agricultural set- tlement. The cost of this drainage to be plus $1.25 per acre the homesteader has to pay for these lands. As there is a large sum of money to the credit of the Chippewa Indians which they cannot have for fifty years, it is a good business proposition to use a part of this fund, thus enabling them to get $1.25 per acre promised them under treaty stipulations. . “At a meeting of the executive com- mittee of the State Drainage league and the congressional delegatio nheld in St. Paul Oct. 13, the delegation asked that a committee be sent to Washington to assist in obtaining this appropriation, as well as to furnish data and statistics showing that the land would be fit for’ agricultural pur- poses after being drained. It is just as legal to Appropriate Federal Funds for the purpose of drainage as it is for irrigation. During the past few years, by dint of lobbying, the Western states have succeeded in obtaining from the general government $34,000,000. For this vast sum less than 2,000,000 acres of land have been irrigated. “It is the intention of the State Drainage league to have a bureau at Washington during the coming ses- sion of congress to watch the interests of Minnesota and to assist the con- gressional delegation in obtaining the necessary appropriation for draining the Indian reservations. These reser- vations, owing to their location, are the keystone of the situation, as they must be drained in order to make the drainage of the rest of the north pos- sible. When they are reclaimed it will be possible to drain the state’s swamp lands. “It has been a difficult matter to continue the work of education on account of lack of funds. So far all the expenses connected with it are being met by the officers of the league. Im view of the importance of this drainage movement %o the wholesale, jobbing, manufacturing, railroad and other interests of the state, the league officers consider it no more than prop- er and right to ask those interests to assist in promoting the movement and in sustaining the educational campaign which will result in a ben- efit to all. “The reclamation of 11,000,000, acres of land, every acre of which is within 300 miles of the Twin Cities, means a new empire for the manufacturers, jobbers and transportation companies of St. Paul and Minneapolis. The de- velopment of the north means: mill- ions of assessable property added to the tax lists and more millions added to the rolls means a lower tax rate. “At, first glance the project coming from the north might be supposed to be a selfish one, but Investigation of the subject will place the work on a higher plane. The state’s lands, when lost no time in scrambling into the trap. The recipient gazed at the coin for a moment, then jumped on the step. “Take it back, sir!” he remarked, tragically. “It means ruin to you.” “What do you mean, sir?” thundered the old gentleman. “Ah,” was the solemn reply. “Once I was just like you. “T had heaps 0’ money an’ threw it about like water; an’ look at me now! Ain’t La hobject Jesson? moe your wealth; I scorns Will Add $77,000,000 to the school and university funds. The disbursement of this fund, being on the-basis of school population, would give Southern Minnesota $10 and Northern Minnesota $2, as there are five times as many pupils of school age in the south as in the north: “The officers of the league are: A. G. Bernard, Cass Lake, president; H. G. Hays, Bemidji, secretary; H. V. Eva, Duluth, treasurer. The executive committee is: J. A. McGonnicle, vice president of the Duluth, Misabe & Northern railway; A. C. Johnson of St. Peter, Frank Haskell, of St. Paul, J. F. Calhoun of Minneapolis, Ezra Gates of Garden City, R. J. Wells of Breck- enridge, Thomas Olson of Willmar, W. A. Nolan of Austin and Asher Murray. “The league’s membership is rapid- ly increasing, and before the next an- nual meeting, which is to be held at Wadena on the first Tuesday in June, 1906, it is expected the rolls will con- tain the names of several thousand of Minnesota’s most progressive citizens and business men.” LESSONS. FOR REAL FARMERS. Short Course at Farm School Opens January 9. The short course for farmers at the Minnesota school of agriculture at St. Anthony Park will be held this season from Jan. 9 to March 2. New features have been added to make it thorough- ly up to date and thoroughly practical. Men of mature years who are too busy on the farm the greater part of the year find in it an opportunity to keep up with the times, to bring them- selves in close touch with recent dis- coveries and new methods relative to their business. ‘How to farm scien- tifically” is the most important ques- tion which the course will try to answer. How to make the most out of Minnesota land. From Jan. 9 to’ Feb. 17, 1906, is de- voted to the general lecture course on agriculture and kindred subjects. The latter part of the period, from Feb. 19 to March 3, is oecupied by the judging course. The selection of farms, planning of farms, the development of fields and their drainage, the construction and maintenance of roads and the build- ing of fences are among the subjects treated in the agriculture lectures. Much attention is given to the gen- eral management of the farm, and to the growing, cultivating, harvesting and preserving of forage and grain crops. Instruction is given in the ro- tation of grain cultivated and grass crops, and in the use of live stock in farm management. The making and use of barn manures, also the use of green manures and of the summer fallow are given attention. The selection, care, use and repair of farm machinery will be taught. By the use of stereopticon views sam- ples of soils, seeds, crops and weeds and specimens of machinery, the mat- ters under discussion, will be thor- oughly elucidated. Lectures are given on the chemistry of soils and foods. The conservation of the fertility of the soil, the part which humus takes in soil farming are topics which are taken under agricultural chemistry. Animal husbandry offers a fine op- portunity for interesting work. The laws of breeding and the feeding and management of horses, beef cattle, sheep and swine are reviewed. Farm botany, farm _ horticulture, poultry raising, farm machanics and handling grains and machinery all receive attention in lecture courses. Something about veterinary science is taught. A novelty and relaxation will be found in the weekly meetings of a parliamentary drill debating club. The last two weeks are devoted ex- clusively to the judging course. Horse judging, sheep judging, swine judging and cattle judging will each be taken up for separate considera- tion. A carcass demonstration on Saturday, March 3, will be one of the features of this work. Feb. 22 and 23 will be devoted espe- cially to the study of the dairy indus- try, with particular reference to the needs of Minnesota farmers. Corn and grain judging will occupy three days, Feb. 19, 20 and 21. Feb. 4 to March 3 will be the period spent in an- imal husbandry. A New Doctor. Dr. Lubig had passed on, and many of his patients were employing Dr. Pond. A little girl who had a good many brothers and sisters proudly an- nounced to a neighbor: “We have a new bayy at our house.” “A new baby!” said the neighbor. ‘Where did you get it?” “Well, we used to take from Dr. Lubig; now we take from Dr. Pond.” Self-Denial. Father—Why don’t you work, my son? If you only knew how much happiness work gives you would begin at once. Son—Father, I’m striving to lead a life of self-denial, in which happiness plays no part. Do not tempt me. Density. Governess (looking over geography papes)—What’s this? “The people of Lancashire are very stupid!” Where in the world did you get that idea from? Pupil—out of the book. It says the® Lancashire is remarkable for its dense population. “The paper tells of a town where a ‘child is born every five minutes. They ought to give him a rest and give him a chance to grow up.” | natural. Most | people, are afraid to be ditter ent. Some people are different for the express purpose of showing that they are not afraid. And then there are a few who are-big enough not to care whether they are different or not— they are the ones that win out, but nine times out of ten they do things im the ordinary way.—Judge. The Football Heart. President James Burrill Angell of the University of Michigan was la- menting the serious injuries that have befallen collegiate football players this season. “At such a rate,” he ended, smiling, “it won’t be.long before the popular melodrama of the day will contain dia- logue of this nature: “Heroine—Have you no pity? Is there no tenderness in your nature? “Villain—Ha, ha! No! You appeal to a heart of adamant. For listen, girl: I was once the center rush of a great football eleven. “Heroine (sinking back in a swoon) —Then heaven help me. There is in- deed no hope.” Facts and Proof. Hulett, Wyo., Dec. 4th (Special)— An ounce of fact is worth a ton of theory and it is evidence founded on facts that backs up every box of Dodd’s Kidney Pills. The evidence of people who know what they do. Mrs. May Taber, highly esteemed resident of Hulett, says: “I know Dodd’s Kidney Pills are a valuable medicine because I have used them. I took seven boxes and they cured me of a severe attack of Kidney Trouble. They relieved me from the first dose, and when I had finished the last box I had no pain and my Kidneys are now acting prop- erly.” Dodd’s Kidney Pills are now recog- nized all over the world as the great- est Kidney Remedy science has ever produced. They cure Rheumatism, Dropsy, Gout. Lumbago, Diabetes, Urinary and Bladder Troubles, Bright’s Disease, and all disorders arising from any form of Kidney Dis- ease. A Royal Bon Mot. Ambassador Meyer told at a lunch- eon in Washington a bon mot of the Russian emperor’s. “A beautiful Italian girl,” he said, “was summoned to play the violin at the winter palace. “She was an excellent musician. Her performance was admirable. At the end, with a smile and a little bow, the ezar said to her: “Tf I were to shut my eyes while you are playing I could fancy it was Ysaye; but I much prefer to keep them open.’” They Do, Too. “Jacob Riis, the sociologist,” said a lawyer of New York, “has a soft heart. Everything interests him. His sym- pathy flows out in every direction. The poor have in him indeed a true friend. “Mr. Riis sat in my anteroom one morning, waiting to consult me. Near him a young girl clicked busily on a typewriter. She was pretty and neat, with clear eyes and soft hair, but per- haps she was a little pale.‘ “As Mr. Riis regarded her, so young and fresh, working hard in a stuffy of- fice while her more fortunate sisters were riding or motoring in the park, he felt sorry for her, and he said gen- tly: “Do you never get tired, you young stenographers, of eternally pounding away on those keys?’ “<Ah, yes, we do, indeed,’ said the young girl. “‘Then what do you do?’ Mr. Riis asked. “Then, as a rule,’ smiling, ‘we marry our employers. she answered, THE “COFFEE HEART.” It Is as Dangerous as the Tobacco or Whisky Heart. “Coffee heart” is common to many coffee users and is liable to send the owner to his or her long home if the drug is persisted in. You can run 30 or 40 yards and find out if your heart is troubled. A lady who was once a victim of the “coffee heart” writes from Oregon: ’ “T have been a habitual user of cof- fee all my life and have suffered very much in recent years from ailments which I became satisfied were directly due to the poison in the beverage, such as torpid liver and indigestion, which in turn made my complexion blotchy and muddy. “Then my heart became affected. It would beat most rapidly just after I drank my coffee, and go below normal as the coffee effect wore off. Some- times my pulse would go as high as 137 beats to the minute. My family were greatly alarmed at my condition and at last mother persue‘ed me to begin the use of Postum Food Coffee. “I gave up the old coffee entirely and absolutely, and made Postum my sole table beverage. This was six months ago, and all my ills, the indi- gestion, inactive liver and rickety heart action, have pased away, and my complexion has become clear and The improvement set in very soon after I made the change, just as soon as the coffee poison had time to work out of my system. “My husband has also been greatly benefited by the use of Postum, and we find that a simple“ breakfast with Postum is as satisfying and more ‘strengthening than the old heavier meal we used to have with the other ‘kind of coffee.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
