This memorial very succinctly sets forth
the facts in this matter, and it is surpris-
ing that Senator Mcmillan should permit
the bill to lie in his committee unreported.
Certainly every Minnesotian should aid to
secure the selection OF ST. Vincent as a
port of entry and seat for custom house
rather than little hamlet in an adjoining
territory.
Collector McMurtIia is deadly hostile to
St. Vincent and has thrown every possible
obstacle in the way to prevent the change.
His opposition to ST. Vincent has been so
violent and pronounced that it is more
than ''oficial duty" and can only be ac-
counted for on the ground that his pecu-
mary interests lie in some other direction.
1t is about time that the public interests
should be made subordinate to Collector

CARVER BEATS BOGARDUS.

The Pigeon-ShOoting Match at Louisville
Yesterday for the Championsh p of the
World Won by Carver on Score of 90 to
SO.
LOUISVILLE, KY, Feb. 22.-The day was
cold and disagreeable and disappointing
to those who had hoped for warm, sunny
weather for the contest between Bogardus
and Carver. The match was shot on the
grounds of the Jockey club, near the city.
Only about 700 or 500 persons were pres
ent. Considerable money was put up, bets
being on an average of 100 on Bogardus
to go on Carver. Last night the latter's
friends grew confident and he crept up in
the pools. Before opening the match pools
sold at 100 on Bogardus to so on Carver;
then even bets were offered aud accepted.
The traps were arranged with boundaries
measuring eighty yards from the center
trap, the terms of the match being, zone
hundred birds, thirty yards rise and eighty
yards boundary" Both men appeared
calm and confident, when, at few minutes
past 1 o'clock they were called to work,
Col. John NJ. Barbour, of this city, acting
as referee, without any judges. The birds
used were tame pigeons, and
did not fly well. Bogardus
failed to score on the second bird,
which fell dead forty yards outside the
limits. Carver missed the fifteenth and
sixteenth. Bogardus missed the ninth,
scoring tie. Carver fell behind on the
twentieth with a miss. The first twenty
birds were shot in twenty-five minutes.
When the fiftieth bird was reached there
was tie, each having killed 40. At
the seventhieth Bogardus had killed sixty,
Carver fifty-seven; at the seventy fifth, Bo-
gardus scored 81. Carver 81. From the
seventy-6fth to the ninetieth, Carver
gained three and tied Bogardus. Neither
had missed for sometime and
the excitement ran high among
the crowd, but the contestants were cool
and determined. At the ninety-sixth bird
Bogardus missed, and Carver without
miss ran out, defeating his opponentby
one bird, the score standing Carver, S3;
Bogardus, 50; time, two hours and forty
minutes. There was nothing to mar the
good feeling, the match passing off pleas
antly and without single protest. The
crowd cheered Justify at the finish, and all
Joined heartily in congratulating Carver on
closely won victory, while a considerable
sum was won and lost on the match, Chica-
go men especially putting up heavily on
Bogardus. Carver's stakes and gate money
amount to over $1,000.

Delay or NEEDED LEGLsLArrON.

DELAY OF NEEDED LEGISLATION.
The subcommittee OF the senate Repub-
lican caucus yesterday reported in favor of
disposing of the bill for the division of the
territory of Dakota, the bankrupt bill, and
the shipping bill before the close of the
session, in addition to passing the regular
appropriation bills. This is good deal
of an undertaking at this late date, with
but eight days left. Every one of these
bills will evoke great deal of discussion.
The Dakota bill would not be opposed at
all were it not for the fact that there is a
well grounded belief on the part of the
Democrats that the plan is designed TO
secure Republican control of the senate
for decade to come. 1t is hoped
that the territory will be divided
at the forty sixth parallel of lati-
tude, and that Immediately both
fragments will be admitted as states under
the gag, thus adding four Republican SEN
ators to the number. This, of course, will
be opposed by Democrats, who hope with
in the next few years to obtain control of
the senate as well as the house, and by that
means be able to work out their legislative
reforms without hindrance. The division
bill will therefore call for extended debate,
and all necessary parliamentary tactics will
be employed to defeat it.
The bankruptcy bill is not matter that
can be disposed of in day. Its proyis-
ions will affect every business man in the
country, and should be carefully scruti-
nized and their effect considered in their
every bearing. A single carelessly
constructed clause might cause wide
spread disaster to our merchants in every
section. The committee having the mat
ter in charge may have matured the meas
ure properly, but it is not likely that any
bill emanating from committee will
meet the views of all classes. 1t would be
exceedingly unwise and hazardous to pass
bill of that character in hurry, and
unless it receives the deliberate considera-
ton its Importance deserves it will be far
better to lay it over till the next session of
congress.
The shipping bill is another measure
that should not be passed in hurry.
Every Que acknowledges that our
shipping interests need relief, but
scarcely any two of our statesmen
agree as to the means by which this relief
should be afforded. This bill should be
considered carefully. and it is doubtful
if there is time enough at the disposal of
congress to devote to it.
This comes of the shameless squander-
ing of the time of congress in discussions
on the tariff and other subjects which it
was not intended to pass upon. Had there
been due diligence earlier in the session
all these matters could have been attended
to decently and in order. Now they will
have to be left undone or done in slip
shod and imperfect manner. The Repub-
lican majority will be held responsible by
the people for such a shameful breach of
the trust reposed in them.

sition building, and the roller skating rink

Saving Time.

The Ru1aI World says there are u great
many housekeepers who do not know the
value fsaving steps, either for themselves or
others that is, making ten steps do the work
of twenty. They will make halfdozen
separate journeys for as many different arti-
Giles, when one would have answered every
purpose. For instance, in getting dinner,
some women will make separate journey to
the cellar for potatoes, meat and bread. Now
once going would do every bit rs WELL and
save a dozen aches and pains. If you are
going for potatoes take along knife, and
cut the meat you are going to want, and a
plate for the bread, and save yourself or some
one else the task of going again within
twenty minutes.
In setting the table observe the same rule
Notice and see what articles you can carry
conveniently at the same time. You can
as easily carry plates, saucers and cups at
once, as you can to 60 three times. If you
pass the woodpile, stop and take in few
sticks with you. In short, keep your eyes
open to this one idea for a few days. You
will see hundred ways in which steps can
be saved, and your own strength be kept fol-
other duties Another thing is to take the
easiest way every time 1t pays in the long
run.
No woman has strength that she can afford

have in which to do anything. Nine women
out of ten waste more strength, and time too
in the end-for poor, tired humanity has got
to rest sometime-by rushing headlong into
their work. They give themselves no time
for rest of body or soul, and sooner or later

The Girl Everybody Likes.

She is not beautiful-oh, no Nobody
thinks of calling her that. Not one out of a
dozen can tell whether her eyes are black or
blue. If you should ask them to describe
her, they would only say "She is just
right" and there it would end.
She is merry-hearted, fun loving, be-
ytching maiden, without spark of envy or
malice in her whole composition. She en-
joys herself and wants everybody else to do
the same. She has always kind word and
a pleasant smile for the Oldest man or wom-
an; in fact can think of nothing she resem-
bles more than sunbeam, which brightens
everything it comes in contact with.
All pay her marked attention, from rich
Mr. Watts, who lives in mansion on the
hill, to negro Sam, the sweep. All look
after her with an admiring eye, and say to
themselves, "She is just the right sort of a
girl"
The young men of the town vie with one
another as to who shall show her the most
attention, but she never encourages them
beyond being simply kind and jolly; so no
one can call her a tirt no, indeed, the young
men deny such an assertion as quickly as
she.
Girls-wonderful to relate-like her, too,
for she never delights in hurting their feel
ings or saying spiteful things behind their
backs. She is always willing to join in their
little plans and assist them in any way. They
go 10 her with their love affairs, and she
manages adroitly to see Willie or Peter and
drop good word for Ida or Jennie, until
their little difficulties are all patched up, and
everything goes on smoothly again-thanks
to her.
Old ladies say she is delightful" The sly
witch-she knows how to manage them. She
listens patiently to complaints OF rheumatism
or neuralgia, and then sympathizes with them
so heartily that they are half cured.
But she cannot b. always with us. A
young man comes from neghboring town
by-and-by and marries her. The villagers
crowd around to tell him what prize he has
won, but he seems to know it pretty well
without any telling, to Judge from his face
She leaves us, and it is not long before we
hear from that place. She is there the
woman everybody LIKES.

Eighty cents per dozen has had serious
effect upon some Maryland tomato packers.
One of them sends us the following account
of his thoughts toward midnight;
II should think that the pack of tomatoes
of this year will be fully 40 per cent short of
last year, and believe that next year it will
be still shorter. Many will never pack again.
Some are so sick that they cannot bear the
smell of the fruit. Others eyesight has
become so affected that they cannot bear to
look at anything red. A short time ago,
pretty drawing ola pretty tomato attracted Il
crowd wherever shown now no picture of
the handsomest Queen" or Smooth Red''
will draw the question, "who has such seed
for sale?" The land too, is sick of tomatoes
and corn, as sick as the Gamers, and they are
sick. Canning must take a secondary place
on the farm. We cannot give up wheat, for
that pays the taxes; nor corn, for that feeds
the horses and hogs; nor potatoes, for them
we have TO eat; but by putting in few to-
matoes and getting our wives and children
to pack them, we MAY get enough to pay
insurance, and thus sleep without dreading
