The asparagus branch broke, and HUI
dab was struck with new idea She
would go into the house and see if she
could pick out the notes on the piano.
The boarders were all at dinner, and no.
body need know anything about it. The
coast was clear, as she supposed, and
Huldah sat down 20 the instrument and
arranged her music. The symphony
went hard, as might be expected, and
after a trial of some of the simplest pas
sages she struck into the fugue Of Bach's,
of which composition she had never
a note, ard only having heard it on
that one long to- be remembered occasion.
Her memory was perfect, and her ear
wonderfully correct. Her manner of
rendering some of the passages that had
most pleased her was marvellous in the
extreme Her hands were too mex
perienced and too stiff with hard work
for brilliant execution, but there was a
soul in every note she struck which told
plain story Of the genius which dominat-
ed her life
This is Huldah," said a lady's voice,
as the amateur musician took her hands
dreamily from the piano; and Huldah

his hand.
1T was very kind of you, Huldah, to

simply.

and reyered genius as divine gift only,

played the fiddle. "lf you are willing, |

WATERPROOFING FOR LEATHER. A
good article may be made by using paraf-
fine melted with the requisite quantity of
drying oil, and casting it into suitable
blocks for subsequent use. This being
sottened by heat, the leather Of the man
ufactured articles, as shoes and harness,
is coated with it and placed near fire or
in a warm place until the composition
has been absorbed. When leather has
been impregnated with the mixture it is
not only perfectly waterproof, but it is
also rendered softer and more durable.
Shoes retain all their firmness and natur-

them a better polish than before.

Nine men in ten who plant an orchard,
even now days, do so under the belief
that they are planting for their heirs.
The impression is yet very general that
an apple tree at 40 or 50 years of age is,
or should be, in its prime. Yet we opine
that even in our most natural fruit local
tiles, it would be difficult to find orchards
standing intact and vigorous that had
been planted so years. Our own expert
'ence in the West is that trees 25 years
planted are, as a rule, already past their
prime, so far as their money value is con-
cerned, even in good fruit districts.

An Eloquent Passage.

1t cannot be that earth is mans only
abiding place. 1t cannot be that our life
is but a bubble cast up by the ocean of
eternity to float a moment on its waves,
and sink into nothingress. Else, why
these high and glorious aspirations which
leap like angels from the temple of our
hearts, forever wandering unsatisted? |?
Why is it that the rainbow and clouds
come over us with beauty that is not
from earth, and then pass off to leave us
to muse on their loveliness? Why is it
that stars which hold their festivals around
the midnight throne, are set above the
grasp of cur limited faculties forever
mocking Us with their unapproachabe
glory And finally, why is it that the
bright forms Of human beauty are present
ed to our view and taken from us, leav-
ing the thousand streams of our affections
to flow back in Alpine torrents upon our
hearts? We were born for a higher des-
tiny than earth. There is realm where
the rainbow never fades, where the stars
will be spread out before us like islands
that slumber on the ocean. and where the
beautiful beings that pass before US like
shadows, will stay forever in our presence

A sWINDLING CANvAsSER.
The "Cettic World Done For to the Tame of
Several Hundred Dollars

The "CeHie World Done For to the Tune of
Several Hundred Dollars.
Thomas Mullholland is the cognomen of a
wayward son of old Erin. His profession
has been for several years undoubtedly that of
a tramp, He has traversed, according to his
narration, the greater portion of the globe,
and has experienced all sorts of conditions
and circumstances.
This interesting specimen of Celtic extrac-
ton came to Minneapolis several months ago,
when the Irish paper, the Celtic World, was
established here by the Mccain brothers. He
made application for employment as solicitor.
Unwarily the publishers put him in the field
as their agent. He was successful almost
beyond the most sanguine expectations. After
a canvass of this city had been completed, his
employers. highly elated by his wonderful
feats as solicitor, sent him to st. Paul. In
that city, while he was quite as successful in
securing subscriptions to the paper, he re-
ported much less amount of money collected
at the end of each week. He explained that
St. Paul people almost generally refused to
paw subscriptions in advance, but would settle
within sixty days. His explanation was salts
factory to his employers. From st. Paul he
was sent to country towns. The first
week he reported a good list of names,
but small amount of money. Still no sus-
picion was aroused in the minds of the cred
nlous publishers. He enjoyed their implicit
confidence but he evidently could not stand
such prosperity long. At Hastings he devel-
oped his immoderate appetite for intoxicants.
There he met an enthusiastic Celt, lawyer by
profession. The new friends drank freely OF
the mocker and discussed the land league
question. Upon this national topic they dis
agreed and to settle the matter they took q
bout after the Sullivan-Ryan style. Muel.
holland got the worst of the atiray and
had the lawyer fined for the assault. Next
the solicitor fell in with lecturer, one Pat
rick Henry O'Sullivan. They Travelled togeth-
er, taking in nearly all the principal towns oil
the Southern part of the state, Mullholland
soliciting subscriptions to the Celtic World
and pocketing the proceeds, and O'Sulllvan
delivering lectures upon the woes and tribu.
lations of Ireland. They were successful.
They made money, but the unhappy publish
ers neither received any of the receipts nor go1
any whereabouts of their embezzliDg agents
Finally letters of complaint from impatient
subscribers who had paid years sub
scription in advance, but had failed
to get a single copy of the paper, began
pouring into the home office. Naturally, the
McCaun Bros instituted an investigation. Il
was found that their defaulting agent had un
doubtedly taken many hundreds of subscribers
who had each paid two dollars in advance
How much money he has secured in this man
ner it is impossible to estimate. Detectives
were at once set to work, and kilograms were
sent flashing to various stations throughout
the state. Last evening an answer came bacE

Samuel j. .Giser in Limbo for Elopim9
With the ITife of His Benefactor.
Sargent West, Of the police force, having re-
ceived a telegram from. John w. Fredericks, a
farmer residing near Murdoch, to the effect
that Mrs. Fredericks had eloped with a
lascivious widow of month, named
Samuel J. Giser, he instituted search
for the wicked pair. Going to the st. James
hotel he found registered as. j. JOsephs and
wife, Clontarf.n He was at once convinced
that these were the parties he wanted. Inves-
tigating their sleeping room by the aid OF a
dark lantern, through the transom, La stall
wart, he found his convictions confirmed. 1t
was the work of but a few moments to place
Giser behind the iron bars, where he now awaits
the arrival of the outraged husband. When
Geiser's wife died month ago, Mr.. Freder-
icks, in the generosity of his heart, gave the
widower and his little child shelter beneath
his own roof, and the lecherous migrate repaid
the kindness by desecrating the chastity OF
his wife.
The ungrateful wife is still at large.
Last evening the son of John W. Fredericks
arrived from Murdoch. To-day he proposes
to institute steps toward bringing Giser to
justice. Exactly what plan OF action he will
adopt he has not yet decided upon. No officer
accompanied him, ana now he can cOIpel
Giser to return with him to Murdoch is
problem no one can solve. Even though he
did succeed in taking him there the court
of that district would have no jurisdiction In
the case, as the crime of adultery was COM
mitted in this district, not in that
1t is quite probable that Giser will
be arraigned in the municipal court of this
city this morning for occupying apartments
for the purpose OF fornicatlon. Tine woman
who was partner to the elopement has gone
to Eden Prairie, under the pretext of visiting
her family, which she claims lives there, but
people are 10th to place much confidence in
her veracity. In fact, she is thought to be
composed of very tickle and unreliable material.
