Helen Cody "Wetmore, a s i s ter of "Buf­falo Bil l ." has written a biography of her celebrated brother under the t i t le of "The Last of the Great Scouts." The book presents a vivid portrait of a figure unique in the present generation. It is wel l wri t ten and intensely interesting,- as any work that adequately describes the s trange and fascinat ing adventures of Buch a man as Colonel Cody must be.

Mrs. Wetmore teQsl her brother's story from his boyhood to the present time. She l i f t s the curtain and gives the public g l impses of his home life. She sees lier hero on^y with a loving s is ter 's eyes and recounts many facts heretofore unknown t o tho general reader. The book pleases because of the s impl ic i ty and the beauty of i ts diction, t h e . great interest of i t s subject , and because, in this case, truth i s stranger than fiction, for surely the adventures of "Buffalo Bil l" are much imore wonderful than the experiences of Captain Cuttle, even when recounted by auch a master of imaginary history as Cutcliffe Hune.

COFFEE JOHN'S PURPOSE

GOING TO CLJPAN U P T H E CITY

S a y s H e W i l l H i t V i o l a t o r s o f t h e L a w W h e r e v e r H e S e e s

T h e m .

Captain "Coffee John" Fi tchette , re-, turned from h i s delayed fishing trip to Annandale yesterday, staggering * un­der the weight of 153 fish of all kinds and-with the Arm resolution to clean up the city regardles of consequences. Said he*

I am going to hit violators of the law hereafter wherever I see them. I am going to make this a clean city. I believe that the laws on the books were meant to be enforced and that it is the duty of the officials in authority to enforce them to the very letter. Then If the laws are not popular, they will be repealed.

I see that Krumwelde reports that Mayor-Ames said he never gave me any orders to raid the winerooms. Well, maybe he didn't, but you will recollect that the chief did give specific orders to that effect on several oc­casions, and they'were sanctioned by the^ mayor. I take it that he meant what he said, and I was simply obeying orders. And I am going to do somemore of it, too. There is a gobd stiff wlneroom ordinance in effect' and I a in going ;to see that it is enforced:

The report going the rounds that he has been offered and has accepted the posi­tion of chef at the new West Baden hotel where his friend and patron, the mayor, is to officiate as chief surgeon, Captain Fi tchette brands as, a lie. He declares he has never worked for anybody but h im­self in h is iife and i s not going to begin now. "He has l e t contracts for remodel­ing h i s present quarters, he says, and will be in business 'at the old stand Aug. 1 and a long t ime thereafter.

About twenty laborers employed on the new building in process' of construction next to the North Star Boot & Shoe com­pany, on , F irs t avenue N,„ struck for. higher wages this morning. They are what are technical ly known as building laborers, and are organized in a union, of that name. They are receiving 20_ cents an hour for nine hours' work, and struck for. an-advance of 20 cents per day. When. Contractor C. F. Hagl in refused the .ad­vance they mingled with the men ,of the building trades employed on the build­ing with such zeal in an effort to get them to go out in sympathy that the po­lice were sent for. Some of the men wil l •be back at •work in* the morning a t the old wages, i t is said, and the other places wil l be filled by new men.

THE HORN FLY C o m e s Out of S o u t h - w e s t t o P e s t e r

M i n n e s o t a C o w s .

• The horn fly, known scientifically as haemOtabia serrata, imported* from. Eu­rope in 1887, and common in the south­west,. : is making trouble in Minnesota. These flies are a c a t t l e pest. Their bite causes inflammation, a reduced flow of, milk and nervousness . State Entomol­ogist E. L. Washburn says that the eggs hatch in moist weather. Eggs are laid in fresh manure. Dry weather i s un­favorable to their growth. "Anointing with oil, spraying with kerosene emul­sion, disinfecting manure with lime and brushing the flies off the backs of cows by a curtain a s the animals enter^the barn are protective measures.' : ' * '

EXTINCTION OF WILD FLOWER I n G a t h e r i n g B u d s t h e S t e m s S h o u l d

B e Cut a n d N o t B r o k e Off. .,

. " "BosTbh" Transcript. "\ It seeni8 that i t i s ^ i g n tline. persons

of Influence exerted themselves to save the wild flowers, even as ft has been necessary to che :k the slaughter of birds, for eating, or t<> secure their plumage for hat trimmings. Somehow there seems to reside in careless minds a conviction that because a flower is wild it i s bound t o grow whether one wants it to do so or not; whi le in very-care le s s .minds, there is present a deplorable sent iment to the effect that it is not a matter t o be given a second though if flowers do stop grow­ing al together in the woods and fields. ".So,"after sumimng up all the phases of the s i tuat ion, numerous public spirited people got together and formed a Society for the protection of Nat ive Plants . As a means of carrying on this work the so­c i e t y propose to publish brief articles or leaflets for distribution to teachers in our schools , to vi l lage improvement societ ies , and to all persons wil l ing to make use of them. Dwellers in c i t ies clap their hands and rejoice when street stands laden with arbutus announce 'the official com­ing of spring, and feel quite as strong

'emotions of joy when at Christmas time the s tree ts smel l l ike t h e heart of the Maine pine woods. But these joys have meant, it now turns but, a ruthless rob­bing of the country to thus add- to the city's attractions. Now, though i t is not to be. stopped, it Is to be regulated, or at least an at tempt is to be made to do this . In Connecticut laws have been passed look­ing to the preservation and protection of tho Hartford trai l ing fern and the May­flower, two plants which are most sought and which wholesale col lect ing threatens to exterminate; a t least locally.

Although those who gather flowers tor' market do t h e most damage, it may not do a b i t of harm if a few hints oh tho subject fal und/er the e y e s , of "summer boarders' 'and sojourners in all country places. To this end there follow extracts from t'he soc iety 's leaflet No . 1: -

"The first principle that should be urged is , that in collecting; the flower or branch should be cut, hot torn off, which so often needlessly pulls up the root or mut i la tes the shrub or tree, thus completely or partial ly preventing further growth.

"Do not pick all that may be found, for flowers must be left t o develop seeds for future - generations, of plants , and always ;cut.lai^V•^ver^t»i^.up'!the^^i*At*.,• for the roots are of no use in a b u n c n o f flowers, and their destruction means the total ext inct ion of so m a n y individuals.-

"While some plants need every protec­tion that thoughtful people can give them, others from their abundance o r . other qualit ies may be picked freely, Jand are 'practically safe from the greatest In­roads of even the collector of cut flowers lor sa \e . W U 4 ir i ses , asters , golden-rod are so abundant, propagate so , readily, and so wlldlyi distributed that their re la­t ive reduction by col lect ing need .hardly be. considered. Moreover, in thepe cases the roots are not pulled up, even if the flowers are careless ly picked, so that the plants seem able to resist any conceivable amount'Of picking for sale or otherwise.

"Violets ^excepting the crowfoot v i o ­l e t ) , marsh marigolds or cowsl ips and Houstonias , are so abundant that no harm, it^ seems, can -. comeV from '• their indis­criminate picking. Field dais ies , or wbiteweed, and, ; buttercups, while not nat ive flowefs;' occur In 'abundance about cult ivated areas. They are charming, and their col lect ion in the m o s t whole­sale w a y ista virtue as well as a .pleasure, as tending <to check the spread of these introduced plants ."

MAKE IT A PARK Senator Potter's Plan for Old City

- Hall Site. -

STATUE OF COL. JOHN 1$. STEVENS

T h a t C o u l d B e G r e e t e d i n C e n t e r — -• P l a n V a l u a b l e f o r I m p r e s s i o n

- Senator E. G. Potter i s great ly inter­ested- in the proposition to sell the city hall and u s e the money for permanent improvements. He admits that the city hall i tself should be sold, but he bel ieves he has a better suggest ion t o ' make re­garding the s i te . He says :

I would suggest that after the city offices have all moved to the new building the struc­ture be sold and moved away, "and that then with the proceeds •" the site turned Into a park. It would be only a little grass plot, of course, but it could be enclosed with an Iron fence... I "would have In the center a statue of Colonel John H. Stevens.- The peo­ple of Minneapolis would give the money for the statue readily.

The first impression of Minneapolis on peo­ple who come in by the Union station is very unfavorable. The little grass plot and statue would make a vast difference. Other cities have those, little breathing spots of green in the down town portion, and I don't know of any better use that little triangle cold be put to. It is said the city could get 525,000 for the building and the site., I doubt It, but granted that it Is true, what is a sum like that to the city of Minneapolis? It Is less than .18 of a mill on our assessed valuation.

When Minneapolis gets a new federal build­ing it will be put on the site of the old Cen­ter block, -bounded by Washington and Sec­ond street, Nicollet and Hennepin. When that comes to pass the little park on the old city hall site will just set off the building from that direction, and will change what is now a very ugly section of town Into a very attractive approach to the business district.
