The great wheat exporters OF Russia
are becoming alarmed at the tremendous
competition they have to encounter.
Hungary and the Danubian principali'
ties were the first to appear in the
Western markets, but the construction
of railway to Odessa restored the
equilibrium. Then the American COM
petition commenced, and has ruined
the inhabitants of the wheat-producing
districts OF the Muscovite empire.
Wheat is abundant in the interior
more SO than for many years past-but
there is scarcely any communication
with the seaboard. The great military
railways run right through the country,
but there are few feeding lines. The
roads and canals and the care Of the
wheat in transport are in as primitive
state as when Russia had no competitor
in the field. If prompt move is not
made by the government-which is
scarcely to be expected at present
Russian wheat will soon be driven ou
Of the Western markets by United States
enterprise and the new field opening
up in India.

PGrL0r Musicale.

The essence of music is as firm and per-
petual as the qualities of goodness and virtue
are prominent in the human heart. Both are
related and mutually reproductive, inasmuch
as they are the harmonious flowers of the one
beautiful branch, and stand as the emblem5 of
whatever is best and heroic in the spiritual
enGeavors of man.
But there is q witchery and charm in the
exposition OF music that perishes, with the
rendition of which cannot be conveyed by the
most mind tints and colorings OF Thought,
any more than can be described the subtle and
exquisite favor of the peach. TO one who has
never tasted fruit.
No attempt will be made then, 10 analyze
the evanescent charm which the little GEM
pany of musical lovers enjoyed az the mu.
sica!e given by Miss Marie Geist, at the resi-
dence of her brother last Wednesday even
ing.
The tidy parlors of their bautiful home
were thrown open to a score OF friends and
an hour Of the sweetest harmony was enioyed
The musicale was given IL honor of Miss
Gelst, aud she was directly assisted by Prof
Manner and Mr.. Fred Wll, tae gioiin.s.
Ie addition the entertainment was eulivaned
with solos by several ST. Paul young ladies'.
AS rendered the programme was substantially
as follows:

and Mr.. Manner.
OF the performance of Miss Geist no at
tempt az criticism will be MADE, for tbs rea-
sons at first given. Her numbers on the
cello formed the most captivating features
of the evening, aud demonstrated how COM
| Plete mastery she has over this most subtle
| instrument.
At tunes the expression was sororous,
| grand, impressive, and anon its wonderful
| gamut vibrated to tones as tremulous, soft
and lender as an infants or lovers. 1t was
| a rich feast aud richly Appreciated
| AS 10 the rest, Prof:. Manner and Will con-
trLbuted their fall share to the pleasure of
the evening. They are good artists. The

native iron which came up from the well
borings of the drill. He brought into
requisition the dipping needle, and found
that that instrument clearly indicated
iron, and finally settled down into the
conviction that iron must exist in this
region. Prof Hall, of the
state university, also visited the premises
and, from the action of 1.-THE dipping

belief that iron must exist here. He

Facing Things.

Half of the wretchedness OF life might
he spared if men would learn to look
things square lii the face. 1t Is the un.
defined possibilities OF evil or sufferin 9
that rack the nerves and cause sleepless
nights. The dread of going to the
dentist is oftentimes more complete and
torturing anguish than the real process
of the operation. Men in business have
not the courage to examine their ac-
counts, and they go on trusting that
things will come out right in the end ;
but at the same time they are haunted
by forebodings which they have not the
courage to put to the test. If ever the
crash comes and they lose all, it is apt
to be relief and the reality, though
much worse than the prospect had
seemed, is more easily borne than the
nameless horror which might strike here
or there at one time or another. 1t Is
even more noticeable in little things,
in the small affairs of life, which, after
all, go to make up life. You attend q
country funeral and some incongruous
detail in the solemnties makes assault
upon your risibles if you look squarely
at the men and women around you or
IN youi eyes tio
or even the undertaken, your diaphragm
will come to your aid, and your face will
no more betray the workings of the
wheels within than that of the immova.
BILE old tall-clock ticking in the corner ;
but If You cover your face with yonr
hands or try to smother your laugh with
averted face, each instant the enemy
grows more provocative and ten chances
to one you cloak yourself with eternal
shame.
The unhappy lodger in room unpro-
vided with nettings goes to bed with the
hope of sleeping the sleep of the just +;
but no sooner does the ivory gates begin
to open than the pecan OF the August
mosquito is heard. Two courses OF
action are open-wait nervously for the
approaching fiend. and strike aimlessly
in the dark, spending precious energy in
vain, or face the fact that the little life.
blood which your enemy will drain is OF
no consequence, shut your eyeids and
let the world wag as it will the mo-
quito will soon satisfy his craving for
gore and depart to sting no more.
And so it is with everything. No hu.
man being need ever be borne to the
ground by Fate, If he can teach himself
the philosophy of facing her boldly, and
having found out the worst she had in
store, made up his mind to endure
brayely what ever might come.

PrOyerbial Savings.

What unmitigated instances the maxi
ers of proverbs must have been to those
who knew them intimately. Take for
example the unnatural monster who
propagated the saying that "Chi'dren
should be seen and not heard Did he
want them born dumb Imagine what
an interesting individual the author q
"Soft words butter no parsnipS, must
have been. What kind Of words would
he have had, and why could he not have
left the parsnips to the cook And then,
too, how contradictory proverbs are.
One aggravating authority asserts that
"a rolling stone gathers no moss; ,"
would he have us sit still Ike Jumps on
q log till we become moss-crown and
unfit even for the frey What is the
use of proverbs anyway? All sorts of
uncomfortable people quote them to us
upon all manner of occasions, and no
sooner do we think we have succeeded i'll
mastering the deep meaning that under
lies them, than our breath is taken away
by some other uncomfortable person
asserting the deep truth of another
directly oppo: lite. Such, for example,
as we recover from the mastery of the
"rolling stone," as "a setting her never
gets fat" How is this ? or shonld il be
the hen that rolled and the stone that
sat So after all We may come back to
our first position. that the makers of
proverbs are unmitigated instances.
