BIG TIME 1T MTNNE4POIJS

The State Historical Society has. been
for some months preparing for the
grandest Fourth of July celebration
ever held in Minnesota. 1t is to be a
double celebration in double sense, viz:
the celebration of the two hundredth
anniversary of the discovery of st. An
thony Falls by Father Hennepin and
the celebration of the Fourth of July.
The exercises will be held on Hennepin
Island on Saturday July Sd. Invitations
have been sent to nearly all the promi-
nent men in the country. Among those
who are certainly expected, says the
Minneapolis Journal, are President
Hayes, Gen. Sherman, Gen Sheridan,
Senator Window, Secretaries Schurz,
Ramsey, Evarts and Gen. Devans, be-
sides a host Of brilliants from the pull
pit. the law and letters. Societies from
the various towns of the State are invit-
ed and expected. Ex-Gov. Davis will
deliver the Grafton.
The design is to publish memorial
volume containing the addresses, es-
says, etc. Col. Goodrich prepares the
article OH Civil Government, Rev. DR..
Riggs an article On Protestant Missions
to the Indians and Rev. E. S. Thomas
an article on the gospel to the white
settlers of Minnesota
Altogether, 1t will be quite an event
in the history of the State.
The Rev. D. Griffin Gum, recently
OF St. Ambrose Episcopal Church, N.
Y. City, was in town last Tuesday. The
object of his visit was to select Il site
for an Episcopal Church, and to estab-
lIsh Episcopal Services in Worthington
under the direction of Bishop Whipple.
Window will be his place of residence.
lie will have charge OF St. James, Win
dom. Northington and Luverne.
ltstrikes us that an Episcopal Church
IS needed in Worthington as means of
improving the manners of large Dor
ton of the people, especially the young.
We learn that lots for the church build
ing can be secured on school house
square.

Feeding for Pork.

One of the mistaken policies of stock
feeding, especially hogs, is tOfeed them
upon some one unchanged diet. As the
matter of feeding is made a scientific
study, the idea of an exclusive corn diet
is being abandoned, the results pointing
Enthusiastically to the fact that it is I'M
healthy; and, if so, it cannot be classed
as profitable. and our veterinary authors
are now claiming that hog cholera, that
scourge of hog breeders, had its origin
in districts where corn was fed to the
exclusion of all other diets, and if the
system is persisted in it will be noticed
that personalities, either of the farm
ers own invention or an advertised nos
trum, are demanded, which the hog, to
satisfy some craving that the one diet
does not supply, devours with Unsuitable
greed.
Upon this subject the Western Rural
says that corn is principally carbon
aceous, hence exclusively fat forming,
and to keep up healthy and growing
state, the hog must have mixed food,
such a food as will develop all parts of
the system, and for this purpose the
turnip is very valuable as a diuretic,
and with the more heterogeneous foods,
such as wheat middlings, etc, the
growth will be continuous and the fat
tening process will be thus extended,
and while health will be promoted,
there will be far less complaint among
stock feeders that the hogs are not fat
tening, and that the feeding TO await
a favorable stage of the market is one
of outlay without any compromising re-
turn in pork for the corn consumed

MIR. Gladstone Under Arrest.

On Wednesday a trial took place
which is not recorded in the law reports
of the newspapers. Mr.. Gladstone
with others, his cOlleagues) was de-
livered into custody, was tried by q
jury before Sir Frederick Pollock. and,
after examination had, was acquitted.
Such is the bare statement of the fact;
to the outer world they are disguised
by various fictions. When Mr.. Glad
stone - doubled'' the parts of Prime
Minister and Chancellor of the EX-
chequer, a multitude of minor offices
and functions fell to his lot de tact0.
Thus he holds the post of Master and
Worker of the Mint and thus he be-
comes liable to the judicial proceeding
known as the - trial of the pyX." The
pyx, (Which, by the by, is only the
Greek way Of spelling box meant Of
old the holy casket containing the con-
secrated Host; some etymologists even
tell US that the word survives, though
transformed, and that the vulgar SEEM
inc phrase. . Please the pigs" is really
a devout reference TO the saint cibOire.
Now it means, in mint language, GER
tain iron safe into which specimen
pieces from each batch of gold and sill
yer coinage are placed. On set day
the Lord Chancellor summons jury of
goldsmiths; he charges them with the
assay of the pieces in the pyx and pend
inc the result he delivers into their Gus
tody all The officers of the mint. From
1890 A. d. no precedent exists for the
punishment of the Queens coiners when
they fail of their duty. The pyx pieces
have always been of true weight and
goodness; the coiners have always been
acquitted. Fortunately, on Wednesday,
the result was as happy as usual and
themaster of the mint is safe for another
year.-Pau Mall Gazette.

wall.
No sound but swallows flying TO and fro,
Or tinkle of q bell IN pasture near.
Soft shadows on the hillside come and go.
While over heights of blue sweep, still and
slow.
White wreaths Of cloud that melt and disap-

Under the hill thin smoke rises, curled
Like incense from the altar of a peaceful
world.

outright about forty-fve of them, while
the rest were hurled through the air
