GREATEST AND LAST WEST
Indiiputgble Facti, Thing's Done ud
to Be Done, Splendid Besourcei.
PEOPLE "GET THESE" IN B.EGDJA
Beaeeas Why Reglaa Will r.e the
Metrrlls f Western
The phenomenal growth of western Can-ada-th
Influg of settlers, the birth f
cities, tha wonderful development In that
great land to th north, wher one rolled
boundless stretches of open prairie, wild
woods and seeming wilderness, la a ro
mance more fascinating than that of any
other country and today Is attracting peo
ple from every corner of the American
continent and from all over the civlllxed
world.
From what was unknown resources and
possibilities, now - Is found what Is fast
becoming the richest portion of Canada.
Where there were only a few struggling
villages and towns, now are found thriv
ing, budding cities, and In the heart of
all th growth, all the promise and all
the yield. Is the city 'where people get
there,' Regina. Aided by location, facili
ties and all that makes a commercial cen
ter, this "get there" city Is fast assuming
proportions which will result In Its feeding
the wants and demands of the hundreds
of homes and towns which are fast cover
ing the rich prairtra around It and prepar
ing to pour Into th eager lap of the con
tinent the tide of riches which are western
Cnrada's.
Th "Granary of the Empire" is th
title given that province known as Sas
katchewan, of which Regina la th capital,
bee bus of the Immense yield of wheat,
oats and barley. Tha government statis
tics show an average yield per acre for
the last four years, since, the Influx of
settlers, of some So bushels of wheat.
C?0 of oats. 27.U of barley and the jleld
previous to l.W4 was as good In propor
tion ta the number of acres under cultiva
tion. When a comparison of averages
Is made. Regina district (say within a
radius of about 100 miles) gives a yield
per acr for the last thre years, accord
ing to government crop bulletins, of 27.35
bushels of wheat. U. bushels of oata and
81.S7 bushels of barley. These conditions
have prevailed .sufficiently long to prove
the undoubted richness of soil, the depth
of clay loam and claylsh soil, which is un
limited. Its heavy yield assures the fact
that Its fertility and productiveness Is un
questionable. Abundant yields and quality
of grain Is the great factor which Is attract
ing settlers and investors from all points.
Regina district Is the magnet which draws
them, and all other portions are In a more
or less defined way feeling the result of
the fame of western Canada's wheat lands,
which pt net rites all corners of th glob
where people are on tlio lookout for bet
ter, blighter chances for material ad
vancement. On th countless farms, whli 'n
yearly, and. In fact, monthly, are being
brought under cultivation, there are large
quantities of wheat atraw burned every
fall. In Regina district, where the yield
of wheat Is proven greater than any other
district In western Canada, are yearly
burned tons and tons of straw. In spite of
this fact, there is no such Institution as
a straw board factory. Why should not
someone start on? Regina offers Induce
ments to monufacturers better than any
where In th west. This Is. one big op
portunity for American shrewdness "to
get In on th ground floor." It might be
well to mention that In the Regina district
are raised the finest potatoes In quan
tities bf from X to I0 bushels to the" acre
and still the west Imports all the starch
It uses. Enterprise would make a starch
mill pay. Flax of the highest order and
In immense yields is grown extensively
and there is no flax mill. Being the live,
throbbing heart center of such a mag
nificent agricultural country "has led the
large agricultural concerns of tha conti
nent to establish their permanent head
quarters In Regina and there they have
bulit immense distributing warehouses to I
cop with tha demand oS the country. I
Another reason for their location, and also ;
th stablishment of several wholesale
iruii. grwery. dry goods, hardware and
other Institutions, is the splendid railroad
facilities, without which distribution could
not well bs carried on. The Canadian Pa
cific have at present their main line east
and west and a branch tapping; the south,
and are building another line to th north;
th Canadian Northern hae their main lino
In from the southeast, to be completed
northwest at an early date, and also have
a line tapping 250 miles of beautiful coun
try to the north. The new national trans
continental, tha Grand Trunk Pacific, is
now wltbin 100 mile, the balance to be
finished this year; they Will before long
have two more important lines, one east
and west, and one with its terminus on
th shores of th Hudson bay and running
through Regina soathwards, thus placing
the city In touch with the markets of
Europe at a closer range than by way of
Montreal or New Tork. The ahipping dis
tance will thus be lessened for the west
by some 1,000 miles. Over these bands
of steel and endless rowa of tlea spread
ing over the rich and wonderful country
like the legs of a giant spider will. In
th coura of a few years; roll the long
tralna which will carry supplys to every
romsr and make thla "get there" city of
Regina, which is feeling most of the im
petus of growth In the west, what It la
coming closer t resllsing every day, th
comma rclal center of western Canada.
The center for finance In the west Is
Rcgtna. Leading trust and loan com
pan lea. Insurance companies, ten branchea
of chartered banks, all are located In
Regina. and in all cases, exception of the
banka. hav their western headquarters In
th city.
The citlaens art bound to have a model
city, they have great pride In It because
they see dally Its growing importance.
Owning Its electric light plant, water works
system, with Ita paved streets and grano
lithic sidewalks, splendid civic building
and five schools, a surplus of over tl.OuO,
0ft) and Ita low tax rat, Regina cltlsena
are proud of their municipal position. The
reason of th low tax rata Is that they
own their town ait and many of the civic
Improvements hav been paid for by the
sale of parcels of city lots. An energetic
Board of Trad or Commercial club la
ready to give any asslstanc to Interested
persona through their secretary.
Regina, th commercial center of Canada,
lb "get there" city of th west; the
city wher they ar "doln things' and
wher they ar keeping It up; th center
of a circle of 300 mites radius of beautiful
productive country; with Ita railroads link
ing it t all parta of tha west. Regina
Invites alt wh ar r can be interested

to com gad join her. But a few ysaxs
shall roll by be for, wher now th gopher
nslnes in aoistud. wher thr ar baundles

LIKE A LEAP YEAR TRAGEDY
Perpletltlea sf mm law Warns F.dl.
tnr Wh fr9sed In
Pr4.
Ml Kliaabeth Sohn, editrea of the
Ptorm Lake (Iowai Vldette. a brilliant and
beautiful woman. Is- down with nervous
prostration because In answer to her pub
lished lesp year announcement In her own
paper that sh would be willing to marry
th right kind of man she has received
no less than 3D0 proposals.
Wether Miss Bonn hsd ever received a
proposal up to the time ahe published the
announcement Is not known. Th bril
liant and beautiful woman Is not always
proposed to as soon or its frequently as
women who are not quite so brilliant and
beautiful. The average man Is timid In
matters of this kind. And he Is meek
and modest. Pome women appear to be
so far beyond him In every rsnect that,
whil he would b grateful for a sign of
encouragement, he has not th courage
to take the first step. Rut let a brilliant
and beautiful woman like Miss Sohn sim
ply hint thai ahe I now prepared to con
sider proposals and we see the result.
Not one, or ten, or twenty, or fifty, or
a hundred, but 3rt). offers of marriaare were
received In reply to her advertisement up
to the time she was taken down with
nervous prostration and the offers may
till be coming In by every mail, so far as
anybody knows!
Now, what does this show? What facts
does it establish? First, 1t proves that the
brilliant and beautiful woman whose verv
brilliancy and beauty often discouraged
man. Is, In reality, much sought after.
Beconly. thst when a brilliant and beauti
ful woman finds that for some reason men
think her "haughty, or cold, or unwilling.
She Is justified in correcting such an er
roneous Impression nay. It Is her duty to
correct It at the earliest opportunity and
by resorting to any legitimate means wtlhtn
her reach.
Miss Sohn should have known that the
moment she made her announcement she
would be literally swamped with propos
als. And she should have taken necessary
precautions. In the very nature of the
case she could not be expected to fill all
orders. That, she should have seen. Was
out of the question. Consequently she
should have written her ad in an Imper
sonsl vein. She should have said something
like this:
"There are hundreds or brilliant and
beautiful young women In Iowa. Including
the editress of the Vidette, who will lie
glad to consider proposals for marriage
from proper parties. Address all com
munication ho this office."
That when the 200 replies rsme In it
would have been a comparatively easy
matter to make her own selection, while
disposing of tha remaining Its) In a manner
that would have been perfectly satisfactory
to each and every one of them, for, as
we all know, Iowa has brilliant and beau
tiful young women enough In stock to
meet this and all other reasonable de.
mands likely to be mad upon them, and if
Iowa young women cannot make Iowa
bachelors happy then the latter are with
out hop in this world. .
In the meantime Miss Sohn need not fret
because ahe disappoints 199 out, of the 200
who have proposed to her. The thing for
her to do Is to cheer up and act promptly.
This la a matter that will not brook delay.
Now that the power of the leap year ad
vertisement has been demonstrated to the
satisfaction of the young womanhood of
Iowa, competition is ,bound to ensue which

brooches and rosettes made up for Irish
celebrations there are sold In this country
altogether about 1,&0.010.000 annually, or as
many as are sold of similar emblems for
the celebrations of all other nationalities
put together.
As thla dealer puts It, suppose there are
In thia country of Irishmen and their im
mediate descendants say 10.000.0)0 people;
that would give 10.00fl.000 Irish purchasers.
But ther are sold of these Irish emblems
a 1.000.000.000 a year, or a 100.000.000 a year,
a hundred times ten million, and who buys
them?
They are sold for souvenirs at dinners
and they are sold st fairs and to ba warn
at various celebrations, aa well aa on St.
Patricka day. Many ar lost or broken,
others being bought to replace them. Many
ar bought M ge given away; individual
purchasers buy a dozen at a time and give
them away to their friends. Irish emblems
appear also tu be bought and worn by peo
ple of vsrious other nationalities.
The sale of the shamrock snd other Irish
emblems In th streets la confined to a
few days about Bt. Patrick's dsy, but prep
arations for ttiia brief periodT of pub'le
sale, whan novelties are introduced, are
made montha In advance. Emblems that

Of St. Patrick's day emblems, for ex

When Sheriff A. Ransom and his deputy,
W. p. Melson arrived from Mindcn, and
were brought face to face with Joseph Fee
ley, who was arrested by the South Omaha
authorities under suspicion of being Bert
Tsylor. both were visibly startled at the
striking resemblance. The sheriff said.
"Well, If I had not known Bert Taylor for
twenty years. I would swear that this was
tha man. He la like him In all ways ex
cept that Taylor has some small facial
marks, which are lacking here. We have
learned also pretty positively that Taylor
shaved off his heavy black moustache at
some point along the route he took. Any
time you get a man who looks as much like
Taylor as this man. you Just keep him and
we will come sgaln."
W. G. Melson. the deputy, is a member
of the volunteer posse and has lately been
deputised. He Is an old man and hard of
hearing. He 1a wealthy and he vowed he
would spend his lsst dollar to find Taylor
and bring him to punishment. He is no
relative of the Taylors, but he said. "If
you think I am queer. I tMI you I am only
a sample of the people who have my feel
ings In this case. I hear that poor girl is
dying. 1 expected it all the time. We
knrw she couldn't live. I am going to
Denver and will strike a lot of Colorado
points. I have knwn Taylor for twenty
years. 1 know his habits pretty well and
I think I know where to look for htm.
When I find him h Is going to come bark
with me or one of us will be shippel,
that's all."
Telegrams and long distance calls came
In by the score at the South Omaha Jail
yesterday afternoon, from the country near
Mlnden. People were intensely Interested to
know If the South Omaha suspect wss tha
right man. If he had been he would not
have been taken to Mlnden. The present
temper of the people, according to the
sheriff, would not make It advisable. The
arrival of papers with the account of the
arrest of the suspect was the cause of the
deluge of long distance calls. W. Q. Mel

and Sheriff A. Ransom returned to Minden
to take up the search again.

The restraining order against the firm of
Hannon A Craig, who have the contract
for th construction of the N street gulch
sewer, will come up for trial Monday
morning. This restraining order was se
cured by the South Omaha Realty company,
which is one of the holding companies
formed by the South Omaha brewers- since
the Gibson law has forbidden breweries to
own retail cstsbltshments. The reslty com
pany makes the contention that the con
struction of the sewer endangers the build

the contrsctors to Insure them against

AGE OF THE MASTERPIECE
mmmm I
Iterorda show aa Avernae of Fifty
Irani for Performance of,
Masterwork.
The wsummura honum" of a man's Ufa
who shall say when or what It Is In aay
given case? It become almost a work of
supererogatlor to attempt to designate any
single act or performance as tha one most
vsiuaoie in any man s csreer. neaucea is
the ultimate. It becomes, after all, only th
expression ot an Individual opinion, save In
those striking instances in which by gen
eral consent a certain achievement la recog
nised as the man'a greatest work. No on
would deny that In "Paradl Lost" Milton
attained the highest expression of his men
tality, that Wellington achieved Ma great
est fame when h won th field Of Water
loo, that Bacon'a "Novum Organum" Is his
greatest 'accomplishment, and that "Don
Quixote" exceeded anything else that Cer
vantea ever did. In other life-records one
set may appear to another at different
stages In the man'a development; or to ens
observer the influence of on deed may far
outweigh that of another, and contrari
wise. This difficulty haa been exceedingly
hard to overcome, and without any at
tempt at dogmatism, but with tha earnest
desire to ascertain the truth aa far as may
be possrble, has th decision been mad In
th disputable records.
Having been arranged In thla manner,
the records give an average ag of SO
for the perfomanca of th masterwork.
For th workers tha average aga la 47. and
th thinkers 12. Chemists and physicists
average the youngest at 41; dramatists -snd
playwrights, poets and Inventors, fol
low at 44; novelists give an averag of 4;
explorers and warriors, 4T;' musical com
posers snd actora, 4S; artiats and divines
occupy th position of equilibrium at (0;
essayists and reformers -stand at 61; phy
slciana and surgeons lino up with th
statesmen at 62: philosopher give an aver
age of (4; astronomers and mathematicians,
satirists and humorlsta, reach M; historians,
67. and naturalists and Jurtata, 6a. Aa may
ba noted, there is a rearrangement of the,
order at thla time, but th thinker, aa
before, and as would naturally b expected,
attain their full maturity at a later period
than th workers.
Tho corollary Is evident. Provided health
and optimism remain, the man of 60 can
command success as readily aa th man ot
JO. Health plus optimism read th secret
of success; the Qod-glven, th other In
born, also, but capable of cultivation to th
point of enthusiasm. W. A. if. Dorland In
the Century.
