In these pans the harvesters are busy today garnering this great crop and it wiil shortly be known whether the great anticipations are to be real ized Throughout all parts of Saskatche wan whether north, south, east or west, the same story was heard, and the evidence was seen of the splendid and bountiful crop Rich Yield in Manitoba. In Manitoba it was tbe same The fields of grain . that were passed th-ough in this province promised to give to the growers a bumper yield, and as high as 35 bushels of wheat and SO bushels of oats was freely dis cussed.

NEW NEWS of YESTERDAY =* By E. J. EDWARDS I President Broke Precedent General Arthur Personally Called on Hugh McCulloch to Offer Him the Position of Secretary of the Treasury. In 1863 Hugh McCulloch, who for eighteen years had been a banker in Indiana, was made the first comptrol ler of the currency by appointment of President Lincoln. Two year® later Mr McCulloch succeeded Samuel Fes senden as secretary of the treasury and held that position until is69, in that period successfully meeting that serious problem of paying off the Union troops at the close of the Civil war and bringing order into the finances of the nation. Fifteen years later he again became secretary of the treasury, holding the portfolio until Cleveland's first administration began; and the manner in which he was asked to take his old cabinet posi ! probably stands unique in the history of American cabinet building. Although, following his retirement from the treasury in 1869. Mr. McCul loch retained his legal residence in Indiana, he nevertheless made his home in Washington a part of each year. He was engaged in some very important banking and financial work; his services were much sought : by bankers generally, and he fre quently was called upon to give pro fessional counsel to the administra- I tion. Mr. McCulloch's Washington home was well out in the suburbs. . about half an hour's drive from the city's boundary. One afternoon, shoftly after he had returned tnither from business, he was informed by a servant that the president of the i United States was in the reception j room and had asked to see Mr. Me- 1 Culloch. It was most unusual for a president I to make such a call, and Mr. McCul- ! loch was not a little surprised by the j intelligence that the president was awaiting him below. But while he | was preparing to go down stairs and : receive the president, the thought oc | curred to Mr. McCulloch that General | Arthur was the first of all presidents to accept dinner Invitations to private houses, and so probably, while pass- I ing the house, the president had been seized with a desire to pay a little so cial call on a former secretary of the treasury—that, in fact, the president was simply breaking another long standing precedent by paying a per sonal cal! upon a private citizen. For a few minutes after the two men met and the president and Mr. McCulloch chatted informally, the president speaking of the beauties of nature as he had discovered them in the vicinity of the Soldiers’ Home, where he was fond cf driving. But suddenly the president interrupted the flow of small talk. "Mr. McCulloch." he said. “1 have called upon you with a special pur pose. I have come to say that Gen eral Gresham, who. as you know, has been in my cabinet both as postmas ter-general and as secretary of the treasury, is anxious to return to the bench. A vacancy has occurred in the T'nited States circuit court for the district of which Indiana is a part, and. much as I regret to lose General Gresham. I must heed his earnest re quest and nominate him for this va cancy “Now. of course, you know it is cus tomary when the president makes choice of a cabinet officer for him to get the views of his political friends respecting this or that man whom he may think of appointing. This is es pecially true of appointments for the treasury and the postoSice depart ments But it pleases me to tell you that without consulting with any one 1 hare decided to ask you to become Genera! Gresham's successor as sec retary of the treasury. Moreover, you are the first person to whom I have mentioned this purpose, and I have thought that it would be the bet ter part for me to call upon you and tender you here the office of secretary of the treasury instead of sending for you to come and see me at the execu tive mansion. I do not see how ] can in any better way show you how sin cerely desirous i am that you should enter my cabinet, as head of the treas ury department " "The president's unprecedented manner of offering me the appoint ment. and the grace with which he did so. made it impossible for me to refuse the honor." said Mr. McCulloch, "although accep ance of it meant i some business inconvenience and not a little pecuniary sacrifice." And so it came about hat a few ! days later the politicians and bankers of the country were astonished when it was announced that Mr. McCulloch had been nominated as secretary of the treasury. Until then they had not received the slightest intimation of President Arthur's purpose with re spect to Genera! Gresham's succes sor. (Copyright. t9!l. by E. .T. Edwards. All Rights Reserved.) Two Lectures Made Into One How Wendell Phillips Once Gave His Auditors a Double Portion for One Price Without Their Knowledge. As a manager of lecture lyceums in the days of their great popularity— that is, between 1S60 and 1SS0—the late John G. North was on intimate terms with most of the men and wom en of America who have gone down in history as our great platform orators. Wendell Phillips. John B. Gough, An na E. Dickinson and others—he knew them all and managed them, and be tween him and Wendell Phillips there sprang up a personal relation that bor dered on intimate friendship. “Mr Phillips after the close of the Civil war was. with the possible ex ception o. lohn B. Gough. the most popular lec.urer upon 'he American platform,” said Mr. North. "And yet. Practiced What He Preached Elias Howe, of Sewing Machine Fame. Though Worth s Million. En listed as a Private in a Connecticut Regiment. "I knew the inventor of the sewing machine well. I remember as though it were yesterday the day Elias Howe ; came to Bridgeport. Conn., looking for a site for his sewing machine factory. I He was a queer-looking man, very thick set, with long curly hair, and ’hat day, and often after, when 1 got to know him intimately, 1 was struck with the resemblance between him and the popular likenesses of Benja min Franklin. That likeness was not only In Howe's features, but also in his way of looking at life. He was as practical a man as Franklin himself, and. like Franklin. Howe was blessed i with a great deal of common sense. "I could tell you many interesting stories of Howe,” continued the late Abner L. Train, a member of Yale's famous class of 1853. and afterwards a noted Connecticut editor; "how, for example, after he had won his patent fights in the courts of the United States his income increased in one year from about $500 to $300,000. But the most interesting story I know about Howe is connected with the Civil war. "When the war broke out—by that time Howe was one of the rich men of the country, and one of its leading manufacturers—he became tremen dously excited. Not even in the heat of his patent suits could any one re member having seen him so worked up; and he backed up his words in favor of the Union by giving his time freely to the cause and advancing a great deal of money to the state for the purpose of equipping i»s soldiers. He also contributed liberally to bounty funds, and. it is suspected, looked after the family of more than one ‘boy’ at the front. "Well, things had gone on this way with Howe for about a year when he began to say vehemently to his friends that every able-bodied man under fifty years of age not only ought to give what time and money he could to the : Union cause, but should also enlist, j adding that be purposed at the first opportunity to practice what he preached. "At the time a regiment was being enlisted in western Connecticut for a three-year service. It was to be the Seventeenth Connecticut Volunteers. One day who should walk Into a place where enlistment was going on for this regiment but Elias Howe. No one was surprised to see him there, for every one knew how zealous he was in behalf of the north. But when he walked up to the enlisting officer and said in a quiet voice that he desired to enlist for three years every one was immediately seized with astonishment. 'I want to enlist as a private,’ he added, and in silent amazement the pen was handed to him and he wrote his name with a firm hand upon the enlistment roll. "With the regiment this man. who was then worth at least a million dol lars—five years later his estate was inventoried at two millions—this man who was one of the famous inventors of the world, and one of the leading manufacturers of the new world, was mustered in as a private some time later and carried a knapsack on his back and a musket over his shoulder to the front But before he did that he gave further strong evidence of his love for the Union. There was some delay or difficulty about raising the needed funds to equip the Seventeenth properly—I suppose because of some procrastination at Washington. But whatever the cause of delay, when Howe heard of it he almost secretly advanced the needed funds. "When he marched away with the regiment Mr. Howe looked enthusias tically forward to the day when he might be able to do something for his country on the line of battle. But after he had been in service a little while the surgeons of the regiment discovered that he was not in the best of health—in fact, was not fit physi cally for military duty. So, to the deep disappointment of Mr. Howe, he was compelled to retire from the army, in which, so far as I knew, he was the only millionaire who chose to enroll himself as a private." (Copyright. 1911. by E. J. Edwards. All Right* Reserved.) . unlike most of those who were his j rivals, he never wrote out a lecture. “Mr. Phillips' habit of carrying his . lectures about witb him in his head and not in his carpet bag led to an amusing incident in Bennington. Ver i aiont, where he had been engaged to appear by the local lecture bureau. * An hour or so after his arrival In the town the iyceum committee, three prominent townsmen, called upon him ‘ at the hotel. “ 'Well, Mr. Phillips.' said the chair man of the committee, what lecture are you going to deliver to us tonight?’ “ ‘That is for you to say.’ Mr. Phil | lips replied. "‘Have you brought all your lec ^ tures with you?’ the chairman asked. “ ’Yes, I always carry them with me.’ “ In your carpet bag. 1 guess.’ the i chairman said. " No. cot in my carpet bag. 1 car ry them where they cannot be taken away from me. 1 am never anxious j lest they be lost.’ • ’’ ’Well, then, where do you carry | them. Mr. Phillips?’ the chairman asked, curiously. ’’ ’In my head. 1 have got them aH in my head, and you can make anv selection you choose. 1 will deliver the lecture on “The Lost Arts.” or on Daniel O Connell,” or on “Toussaint ] 1 ’Ouverture,” the black man who ere I ated the republic of Hayti Which ; ever one you select 1 shall be glad te i deliver.’ “ ’You have got all those lectures with you in your head?’ asked a shrewd looking little man. who up to that time had not spoken. “ ’Yes. they are ail there,’ Mr. Phil lips replied. “ 'Well. now. if we can’t make a choice, said the little man. ‘why can’t you deliver two of them for the one 1 price? “Mr. Phillips instantly saw the hu mor of the proposition, and it appealed to him. so that he agreed to deliver two lectures. ’The Lost Arts’ and I’Ouverture,’ instead of one and for the j price of one. “And that hr did a little while later, i Lut as he was not tied down to any manuscript or any memorized form, and as he had wonderful skill in j speaking and arrangement of his ! speech, he actually dovetailed those two lectures together—cutting out. of 1 course, a portion from each lecture so as not to make the lecture too long so that no one in the audience real ! ized that he was delivering two lec j tures. “Least of all did the little man of the committee realize it. for after the lecture was over he said to Mr. Phi! lips: ‘I thought you were ‘going to give us two lectures * ” ’My friend. 1 did give you two lec tures,’ was the reply. “‘You did?’ exclaimed the little ; man. ’Why. it all sounded like one to me.’ And he looked sorely puzzled. “ ’That’s exactly what I intended. Mr. Phillips replied, laughing. And he felt that the humor of the situa i tion abundantly compensated him for the delivery of two of his famous lec tures at one time aad for the price he customarily received for one lecture." • Copyright. 1311. by E.
