that the fines, if collected, would amount

A HOUSE built to stand tornadoes-so
the Minneapolis Tribune says-is that of
q banker. the wealthiest man in Osakis,
MINI. All the corners are acute angles,
and the sides sink back into other angles,
giving this architectural freak the con-
tour of star. From the highest point
of the roof the cutters sink suddenly,
making great depressions. This angu-
larity was, it is said, inspired by the bank
er's wife, who lives in constant dread of
storms. The corners were made very
sharp to split tornadoes. The cellar walls
are of unusual thickness, and the timbers
of the structure are anchored in them so
that the house may not be blown down
without taking up the foundations. All
the Notwithstanding is put up in oblique
lines. ~ ~

CHRISTMAS.

Once more, welcome, merry, joyful,
sparkling Christmas comes to our hearts
and homes. Of all the anniversary days
known to the world, Christmas is the
most gleeful in its spirit and widespread
in it's observance. With the rising of the
sun, q ripple of laughter steals around
the earth, and the mirth of happy chill
drcn gladdens Christian homes. In truth,
all the world feels the joyful impulses of
the hour, and the people lay aside stiff
formalities of rank and custom, and
breathe out mutual prosperity and good
will. Smiles wreathe every face, and
happiness, like sunshine, fills every heart.
In tins universal joy, pervading all lands
and conditions of society, we have beau
tiful demonstration of the benevolent
spirit of Christianity, and prophecy of
that glorious day yet to come, foretold
by the ancient prophet, when ''they shall
beat their swords into plowshares, and
their spears into pruning hooks, nations
shall not lift up sword against nation
neither shall they learn war anymore"
Although so desirable consummatio ion
of the mission of the gospel of peace may
BE- far distant, there is much of the hal
lowed influence Of the angels song at
Bethlehem which may be felt in our
hearts and made practical in our lives.
We may become evangels of peace and
good will to our fellowmen. promoting
peace where discord has reigned before,
cheering hearts heavy with sorrow and
temptation, and dispensing gifts where
poverty and weakness have dragged to
the very verge of restitution. He posses
ses most of the Masters spirit who proves
his faith by his deeds, and seeks to i'm
part cheer to others.
A Merry Christmas to all. May it
prove to be day full of blessings to
every heart. Our merchants have enjoy
ed a good trade peace and plenty abound
in many homes the reign of good fell
lowship and holy cheer has brought all
hearts nearer to one another. Therefore,
let US not forget the Almighty and bene-
ficent Giver of these favors, but render
greatful praise to Him for this day and
all it's blessings.

SENATOR HENRY B. ANTHONY, of Rhode
Island, Dec. nth. took the oath as Sena-
tor of the United States for the fifth time,
having served four consecutive terms, or
twenty-four years. as a member Of that
body. He is ''the father of the Senate, :"
as Judge Kelley is 1.-The father of the
House" and he is honored and respected
as much as any man in that body. As a

narrow escape from death last summer,

SPARED of, and his feeble health at present,
has emphasized the regard which his old
colleagues and friends feel for him, and

it impossible for him to preside over the

Senator Sabin's Wealth.

Like all men in the swim, Senator Sab
IN has doubtless put aside good dot for
season of low barometers. But, over
and above this, his wealth must be float
ing in his dozen and more business ven
lures. The estimates put on his fortune
by the Eastern papers, become ridiculous
when they are brought to Minnesota.
They range from So, 0OO, 600 to $40, OO0, 600
with the usual allusion to the barrel,
which in his present elevation, compares
the senator with Tilden or the bonanza
men of the Pacific West. An incident
occurring on one of Sabin's preliminary
trips to Washington, before congress as
sembled, shows how illusory this sort of
talk is. Sabin wanted house at the
capital. Finding one that suited him, he
soon came to an agreement with its owner
that it was worth $4,000. He then Offer
ed small amount in cash and the greater
portion in some of his stocks and bonds,
on which he said he would guarantee Z
per cent for five years. The terms were
not accepted. 1t would be interesting to
see political campaign run on barrel
containing only stocks and bonds of
threshing machine and car works. The
mischief, however. is not with Mr.. Sab
ms barrel, but the people who think he
has one. As chairman of the national
committee he will have little use of his
wealth. Sagacity, energy and penetra-
ton are the assets of that place, and in
these he is known to be quite we'll off. 1t
is said that Sabin's increase of power is a
gain to Mcmillan, which will make his
reelection tolerably sure. The two SEN
ators are algebraicaI cousins by marriage
