ABOUT THE STATE News of Especial Interest to Minnesota Readers ARRANGE FINAL SEPARATION a , Insurgent Minnesota Woodmen Organ- ize New Order at a Meeting in St. Paul. account The insurgent branch of the Modern , Woodmen of America began final sep- aration from the parent society when ,100 delegates, representing 25,000 ;Minnesota Woodmen, it is said, met sat the Hotel Ryan at St. Paul, or- ganized the Northwestern Plainsmen, {elected temporary officers, several of them being prominent men of the demanding separation and chose tem- porary headquarters at Little Falls. | The officers elected are: D.

CG, With such extreme, relenticss jeal- ousy, however, did they guard their great secret that it, too, is lost, to all appearances, irretrievably. Rather more than 100 years ago there lived in'a quaint, old world vil- lage in Wales a working blacksmith who had managed by some means or other to bring the welding of steel to such a pitch of perfection that the joint was absolutely invisible and the temper of the steel as fine as on the day it left ‘the tester’s hands. By his process he was able to join the very finest of sword blades, and after he had finished with them they were ab- ‘solutely as good and as sound as when they had left the factory. The blacksmith’s fame spread far and wide, and, naturally enough, he at- tained a great reputation, but he made a point of invariably working in soli- kept it obstinately to himself, and when his span of life had run its course he took it with him to another they used in naval warfare. Their method of employing it was simply this—to throw the substance — upon the surface of the water, where it flamed up and set fire to the ships of the enemy. What was it? The only known substance of present day that would do this is metal potassium, but to set fire to a ship in the manner described would necessitate the use of at least half ton of the metal. Greeks obtain the substance they with such effect? Or how did
