The cold, drenching, untimely
storm which has ragged with unrc-
lenting fury for the past two or three
days has, of course, been temporarily
disastrous to the Great Northwest
crn exposition at Minneapolis, and
has occasoned intense disappoint-
ment to tens of thousands either on
their way to it. or preparing to visit
it, from every part of Minnesota,
Wisconsin, Iowa, Dakota, and, in
deed, all parts of the Northwest.
But amidst the wreck of his splendid
programme for the first three days
of the fair, Col. King barely main
tains his cheerful confidence in his
star, and with the invincible pluck
which has always characterized his
management, he rises superior to the
commissions of nature and the war of
the elements upon his big show, and
announces a sudden and skillful
change Of plans in the face of the
enemy to meet the unforeseen exig-
ency. The storm having spent its
force, it is safe to rely on fine wealth
er for the rest of this week. He,
therefore, announces that he will
consolidate every attraction offered
for tho week into the three last DAYS
Thursday, Friday and Saturday,
thus giving the full consideration
promised for the week.

ABOUT THE PRESIDENT.

There has been no great change
in the conditioa of the Presiden dur
ing the past week. Some symptoms
have been favorable and others un-
favorable, but, in fact, he has held
his own. Last Tuesday was ap-
pointed by the Governors of several
States For day of prayer for the i'm
mediate recovery of the President,
the notice given was brief, but SER
vices were held in numerous places
between 10 and IL o'clock.
The doctors have decided to re-
move him to Long Branch, and he
was started for that point last Tues
day in car which the workmen of
the Philadelphia shops for the occa-
sion to convey the President. A
false roof was put in a few inches be.
low the roof, to give it an opportuni
ty for circulation of air so as to keep
the car cool, and two large ice boxes
were added we'll filled with ice.
SAFE AT LONG BRANCH.
The President arrived safe al
Long Branch. The distance of 23s
miles was safely accomplished with
less discomfort than was expected by
the physicians. Hope that was giver
up in Washington was renewed al
Long Branch May the ocean breeze
at that point lead to the speedy re
covery of the President for the coup
try's sake.

Owing to the drouth and the CON
sequent short crop of corn in the
great corn states, Kansas, Missouri,
Illinois, Indiana and Ohio, it is reas.
onably expected that the price Of
corn will be higher. The farmers Of
Minnesota, who have an unusually
fine crop of corn will be as sorry for
the distresses of their agricultural
fellows in the states named as any
kind men can be, and equally glad
of tho consequent advance in selling
prices of their own products.
"Father, forgive them, for they
know not what they do" was the APP
text chosen by pastor in
a small town in Mecklenbufg, on the
OCCASION Of the wedding between 1
sexagenarian lover, thrice left Wild
over, and a blushing widow Of sixty
five.

There are but worry few people
who are aware of the pleasant life q
newspaper man leads. His path
way is strewn all the way along
with the brightest of flowers anb up
on downy touches he reposes. His
daily life is one of continued round
Of unalloyed happiness. This is why
SO many young men aspire to become
editors. There is no end to the fun
there is in the business, as will be
readily learned from reading the fol-
lowing of an Eastern editor whose
style of writing was calculated to
arouse people to deeds of gore, being
himself not much on his muscle, who
found it necessary to keep a fighting
editor; and he had a speaking tube
connected. with the pccler's room to
call him when danger required. One
day gentleman, whom the editor
had referred to as "a cross-cyed drom-
edary," came in to request a correc-
ton, and rs the fighting editor was
out he didn't respond to the signal
of distress, and while the editor and
his visitor were OH the floor under
the desk the former agreed to correct
the mistake, and the irate man left.
Pretty soon a gentleman from the
rural districts came in to give the
editor big squash and get a notice,
and about that time the lighting ed
itor returned, and boy in his room
told him the boss wanted help. The
man of war was quick to respond,
and dashing into TO the chiefs room
and seeing the latter in 4 somewhat
disordered condition the result of
his previous visitor, he thought the
countryman was the cause Of it, and
clinched him, and, after staving out
some furniture, ran the victim across
the street to where an empty hcarsc
was standing in front of an under
takers shop. Into the vehicle he
iammed the farmer and shut the
door. The commotion he had ere.
ated scared the horses attached to
the hearse and they started off on the
dead run. People soon noticed the
runaway and ran after it, and were
shocked at beholding the hearse col

amazement AT seeing it spring MIN

statutes just because we were ignorant of
their requirements, and to-day we are fin

births alone. At present the law has the
advantage But if the law attempts to
collect the fines, the advantage will be

out of { ,rnip" it may be able to collect
those fines.
