had 1000 bushels of wheat at Rosemount or
Pennington, and wanted to bring it to st.

lbs to st. Paul, and offered to carry it to
Milwaukee for IL q cents. OF course this
amounted to refusal to carry to st. Paul
a discrimination against this city-a discrim-
ination against the State of Minnesota. And
this railroad was built with bonus of Min
nesota lands. It took $4,000 or 500, 900
out of the treasury of st. Paul as a bonus to
induce 1t to cross the riv.r and come here.
And now it pays Tor these
bonuses by discriminating aga,4.st
this city and against this State. While we
are talking of the Milwaukee brass kettles,
and swindling grading of our wheat, let us
talk little about this swindling Milwaukee

If there is a law to break up this swindling

raise purse to carry the matter to the

A convention of farmers at Minneapolis
appointed committee to procure trial be-
tween the brass testers used in grading wheat
and the sealed half bushel owned by Henne-
pin county. Wheat was tested at three mills.
At one mill the tester made the wheat 521a
pounds to the bushel, the half bushel 52L;
at another mill the tester 591a pounds, the
half bushel 90; at the third mill the tester 81
pounds, the half bushei $50

said if the result was agains; the testers he
would throw them away. Mr.. Pillsbury ad-

fact that in con parison with the half bushel
the tester sometimes gives larger and some

Struck by a Sword fish.

The lookout of the Bounding Billow,
Gloucester mackerel schooner, lying-to
about twenty miles off the lightship,
early on Sunday morning sighted two
black objects, seemingly drifting logs
close upon the weather bow. These
objects drifted nearer, and then the
lookout saw that they were monster
swordfsh, far out of their latitude.
They were basking, motionless, in the
sun. A boat was lowered, and was soon
within few lengths of the swordtish,
The harpooner hurled his harpoon with
unerring aim at the smaller swordfsh.
The keen steel sank deep into its body.
With one slap of his tail, which is much
like three-bladed propeller, the sword
fish darted away, leaving a wake of
foam. The harpooners line whizzed out
from the boat until thirty-five fathoms
had gone. Then there was a sudden
stop. Some of the crew began to con-
graduate themselves on the death Of the
swordfsh, but the harpooner cried out:
"Look out; he's coming!"
The swordfish darted toward the bow
of the boat direct The crew backed
water unavailingly. The sword of the
fish pierced the thick oaken planking Of
the boat as though it was tissue paper,
and the boat careened until water pour
ed in. The harpooner escaped by jump
ing backward. With a Ratchet he
chopped off the part of the sword pro-
truding through the side, and then he

This furry, strangely enough, had not
disturbed the other swordfsh. The har-
pooner sent harpoon well home just
behind its head, and after darling about
and churning the water into great ex-
panse of foam, it died.
The swordfsh were sold to John B.
Lynch of Fulton market. According to
his measurement, the larger swordfish
measured from the tip of the sword to
the extremity of the tail nearly sever
teen feet, the sword constituting on
fourth of the length. Its weight was 81 )
pounds. The smaller swordfish was only
few inches shorter and few pounds
lighter.
An employe of Mr.. Lynch said that
the presence of the swordish near the
entrance to our bay is probably an indi,
cation that whales are not far away, fol-
the swordfsh is the natural foe of the
whale, and is probably the only fish thai
the whale breads. In duel between a
whale and swordfsh, the result is al.
ways a foregone conclusion in favor OF
the latter.

Paris and Nav.

| He who walks across Paris of a fine
May morning, from the super-central
Cafe de la Paix to the exquisite Park
Monceau, and out through the long lines
of palatial mansions, past the Triumphal
Arch, into the Bots, where sun and shade
make checker-work on the sand in the
long, tree-bordered avenues, finds it diff

IRENE heats are rare; July and August
sometimes bring them, but they stink
away, as if ashamed of themselves.
They never linger after nightfall, and
only at rare intervals does the festive
mosquito dare TO present his bill, wherein
he differs from the polite but somewhat
over-keen Paris landlord.
Queen Paris likes the stranger, al
though she generally processes to find
him eccentric, and, whenever ne trans
crosses any of her somewhat absurd
conventions, she mildly intimates that
he is insane. Despite her oft-repeated
criticisms, however, she allows him to
do exactly as he pleases; and, if she is
astonished to see the Englishman affront
her serene skies with umbrella and
macintosh, she is too civil to tell him
of it to his face. Great is her joy, never
theless, in little Qui ps and sly laughs
behind his back; and sometimes she
pillories him in ramasrille, swcetly uncon-
scious that her citizens are quite as riai-
culous in the eyes of John Bull as he
can possibly be in theirs She insists
that the English are by nature droll,
and, if her Utmost thought could be
fathomed, it would be discovered that
she regards all other foreigners as in
clined to perversion of proper and nat
ural ways. But she summons a fund of
charity, and graciously forgiving them
their shortcomings, welcomes them
heartily. The beatltic expression OF a
bourgeois, who gazes at group of tour
lists admiring some special beauty of the
great capital, cannot be described. 1t
has something positively religious iii it.
The bourgeois seems inexpressibly con-
tented that the outside world is not 50
fair as the domain in which his lot has
heeen fixed; and he listens with mild
incredulity to the rhapsodies of any
foreigner who dares to hint that the
land of the orange and the palm is fairer
than the country where winter hangs
heavily five months in the year, and
where the only colors in the skies are
delicate blues and ethereal grays. And
his final argument, if he be led into dis
cussion, is always the same: This
must be better place than your home;
if it is not, why do you come here?'-

LOVe.Making In Mexico.

In their love-making Mexicans are equal

plazas with their arms about each others
necks, totally obliviouso of their surround

The dog maintained his equanimity all

we encountered a young couple bedecked
in gay holiday ribbons and clean clothes,
walking down the broad roadway with
their arms lovingly clasped about each
others necks. She was young and quite
handsome, and he was young and carried
in his unoccupied hand a pitcher CT

Their arms twined about each others
necks for mutual support, as well as to
demonstrate their affection. They walk
ed pretty steadily, however, though
with the obliviousness of demeanor which
we see in more civilized drunkards when
they try to play it on the people and
think they are succeeding. We watched
our two lovers from the roof of the car,
and saw their steps grow gradually I'M

from the bubbling spring, we took an

cheeks together, the pitcher broken at
the fountain, and a tortuous streak of
moist earth showing where the puique
