Here's little blast from Pat Child, OF the
Waseca Radical, for the benefit of the policy
editOr-the nice excuse for an editor, who is
always afraid to express an opinion for fear
he will hurt somebody's feelings: "A good
| editor, an honest, truth-loving, truth-telling
editor should fear nothing-God, man nor the
| devil. A good editor will loue God and all his
| attributes, but he will not fear Him, because
God hates coward, and especially coward

Bob Ingersoll is advertised to lecture at
Faribault, June 9th. The Democrat hopes
the people Of that city will allow him to talk
to empty seats, and, among other things, says:
mo good is accomplished, no happiness At
tained, by listening to his skepticism, the ut.
terance Of which he, like all other pretended
disbelievers, will most heartily repent ere he II
called to shuttle of this mortal COIL. When
Mr.. Ingersoll talks within his range he is on:
Is one whose object ts to upset the BELIEF OF
ages and which only hopes to exchange doubts
and fear for bright and Joyous hope. and has
not one elevating sentiment not foreign to the
subject, let him talk to seats as empty as his
no soul.''

A Convlct's ! ito In q Siberian Mine,

Before l had been there six months
my beautiful auburn locks were white
as possible, whom they were not covered
I'm tho dirt Of tho mine. In another six
months every hair OH my body was
gone, and showed symptoms Of sally
alton. There was no escape from the
mine; the prisoners worked on there
hopclcssly cntombcd till they died.
Five years Vas considered long life
there; some did not live moro than two
years. 1t was my duty for fourteen
hours to work with pick and shovel, at
the extraction of the ore, and then car
ry 1t in baskets up long ladders to Il
platform, where 1t was broken into
small fragments, sorted and siftcd by
life rs the men. After my days work
was over, having no books to read
was glad to take myself to my bed al
most as soon as l had finished my even
ing meal. My bed was hewn in rock
it resembled a sepulchrc. had no
bed clothes laid down in my working
clothes, saturated as they were with
the quicksilver. No changes Of clothes
were allowed. In this way | spent
about three years and half. Some of
my companions died from the dread
ful sores they got from the quicksilver
touching their skin, torn as it was with
sharp rocks In the mine. At last, on Il
Sunday felt more than ordinary i'll,
asd was lying In my dismal hole re-
ilecting on the happy days Of my youth
and the apparent impossibllity of cs-
cape from my wretchcd condition, when
| heard the tramp OF men, and was
pulled out Of my bed. Sunday WAS no
holiday In the mines, but my illness
was my excuse this day for rest. Twas
put IN truck, and was hauled up to
the air, tog her with the minerals
that | had collected. For about six
months | was scarcely able to move
with the rheumatism and neuralgia.
There were upwards Of 200 women
some ladies Of distinction, in the mines
where was. These worked twelve or
fourteen hours at breaking and sitting
the ore. These wretchcd females were
generally dead In year, but their
places were always recruited by fresh
arrivals from Russia. The mine was Il
living charncl-house, the habitation of
gnomcs who went about their work
III savage despair. Some chopped OF
their own hands and feet, thinking that
If mutilatcd they would be saved from
this fearful labor; but it merely
FASTENED their end an,i intensified their
sulfrringS.

a Wonderful Box.

a box constructed of common flooring is
placed upon couple Of carpenters dogs
The box is about four feet high by three in
length and two and half in breadth The
strips Of flooring arc securely nailed to up
right standards, one in each corner. The
angles arc also securely strapped at inter.
walls with iron straps screwed firmly to the
timber, both at the sides and at the bottom.
The lid is constructed of tho same mat crals
as tho box, has pair of heavy strap hinges,
aud is fastened by n hasp and staple, The
latter receiving powerful paddock. Two
carpenters were recently called upon the
stage, rs IL special committee, to examine
the receptacle and report whether there
was any false bottom or any mode of opcn-
ing it except by unlocking it and lifting the
lid. After full inspection, during which
the box was turned over, sounded, pulled
about, and tested in every possible manner
known to the trade, the committee pro.
nounccd it strongly mado packing box of
the ordinary pattern. One of them, at re-
quest of Macalstcr, then closed the box, af-
fixed the paddock, turned tho key, and put
the latter in his pocket. AS further pre-
caution he tied up the paddock in such Il
manner that it was impossible to get at the
keyholc. The piano played slowly, and
screcn was moved between the audience
and tho box, but not so as to conceal it cn-
tircly from view, or to admit substitution.
The magician passed behind the screen az
noisclcssly as cat. In somewhat less lhnn
30 seconds tho screen was withdrawn, and
the committee were requested to examine
the box. Meanwhile the magician had mys.
teriously vanished. They reported that the
lock had not been tampcrcd with, unlocked
it, and lifted the lid, when up lcapcd the
mysterious magician, like Jack in the fa-
nous toy, or the goblin in the Arabian lc-
gcnd. The question was how he got in
there The next procedure was to lock tho
magician In the box, with the same careful
attention to detail that had been previously
observed. Music tricklcd from the KEYS
OF an unseen piano, and the green screen,
almost rs thin rs gauze, slid slowly into
place, and remained for about 20 seconds.
Not the slightest sound was heard behind
the screen; the dropping of a pin would
have disturbed the silence Of that brcathlcss
20 seconds. The screen was withdrawn
and revealed the magician sitting upon the
lid OF the box. The lock had not been TAM
pered with or disturbed, nor had the assis-
tant been out of the view of the audience
for single instant. The trick was the
cause OF great dea! Of speculation among
the 0lnQtcOrs who were Drnaont

The racc Is not always to the swift nor
tho buttle to the strong, nor is it tho man
with the largest mouth who gets the most
favors in tho world. One day recently
very quiet stranger entered real estate
office on Griswold street and softly asked h

One was handed to him and he sat down to
table, looked around, and said:
"Ah! thanks, but have you pen and

They were furnished him. lie tried the
pen on the pad, shook the ink around, and
modcstly continued:

A sheet was handed him. lie wrote a
brief letter, folded it up, and whispered;

An envelope was passed over, and when
he had directed it he looked all over the
table, under the table, up OF tho ceiling, and
asked:
"You couldn't lend me stamp, could

A Athrcc-ccnter was handed out, and when
it had been licked on, the stranger rose and
started out, saying:

A Revolutionary Heroine.

The famous Tory, Colonel Ferguso.:,
dressed in new and dashing uniform which
Cornwallis had given him, rode up to his
brother's house, during the Revolutionary
war, and was endcavoring to win hinY to
the royal cause. "Sce how the noble ear
has treated me, he urged, look at my rank
and clothes. 1t may be | shall be made q

said my brother was REBEL" His last
word brought the sturdy young wife to the

brothers are all rebels, ard the little dog
Trip Is rebel, tool l would rather see
You with sheep on your back than

Then she turned to her husband, whose
patriotism was beginning to wavcr "Now

her for his own personal property, and was
allowed to call the tilly his own. Mr.. VIII
son soon learned that his ncighbor had got

sec her. lie was so very favoTably im-
pressed with the colts performances that
