interest Of the State at large as much
rs to Duluth. and its projectors. that a
great trunk line should be constructed
southwest to new and cheaper centre
Of trade aud better market on the lakes,
than Milwaukee and Chicago 1T present
afford, thereby creating competition
that cannot at any time be pooled to
the injury and detriment of the interior
and producing districts.
In regard to diverting the line OF
road as now proposed, 50 as to reach
WOrthingt0n, or any part of Mobiles
county, we are unable to state at pres
ent, however we'll we should like to de
80; since it is the intention of the man
agement to make the route as short,
and at the same time reach as large a
community as convenient, with the
object to bring freights to the lowest
minimum, and give the community the
greatest possible benefit of cheap
eastern outlet via Duluth for their
grain and other products. and in return
give them cheap fuel. lumber, etc.
The route has not yet been definitely
located through the southwest. and
will assure you that your generous offer
will receive due consideration. Will
be able to give you more definite infor-
nation when our engineers pass over
the route as proposed.
We should he pleased to hear from
your Board again in regard to the
amount you propose could be secured
from the county, provided the line
would reach you.
Respectfully yours,
HERMAN f.. LONG.
President.
Mr.. Long says: ''the route has not ye
been definitely located through the south
,Dest." But it is sure to make either
Worthington or Pipestone, and tn
question now is who shall get the mair
liue? We shall have branch connect
ing US with it. no doubt, in the even
Of its going to Pipestone, and in an!
event will get the benefit of the road
But as Worthington is undoubtedly t.
be the great railroad point. hub ant
centre Of Southwestern Minnesota, W
believe the projectors Of this road, afte
looking the field over thoroughly, will
conclude to come to Worthington.

''Never again" is the best that the

can offer beyond bare, bald hope.
We sat for twenty years under the ser.
mons of orthodox ministers, and We
assert that it never WAS taught as a
settled doctrine among them that We
should meet and know our friends
after death. Some believed it and
taught 1t rs probable, but none could
do so with confidence.
Bare hope, bare faith, is all the
church or the materiallst can offer.
The spiritualist offers demonstration,
conviction, certainty to all who will in

Ohio Colored Convention.

Columbus, o., December o8.--The
convention of colored citizens con-
vened to-day, with large attendance
from all parts of the state. w. :.
Thomas of Delaware, temporary chair
man, stated he object of the conven-
ton. He said that the rights of the
Cnlored people We're being more and
more disregarded, and the Danville
outragcs show such condition OF
affairs as to lead to organization for pro-
lection of all rights belonging TO citi-
zens. The decision of the supreme
court ON the civil rights law was gen.
orally discussed. The forenoon was oc-
cupied in appointing committees on
credentials and permanent organiza-
ton. There was some contest over the
makeup OF the committee on resolu-
tions. The convention then adjourned
until afternoon.

The Emma BOND Trial.

st. Louis, December GA Post
Dispatch special from Hillsboro, llli-
nois, says the Bond case was not
opened till nearly noon to-day. Min.
ME Pettus, sister of Lee Pettus, one OF
the defendants, was put on the stand,
and testified that her brother Lee
owned but one pair of red striped
stockings. The prosecution then sub
iected her to long cross-examination,
evidently for the purpose of obtaining
something contradictory to the testl'
mony of Others Of the family.
The result was that witness gave i'm
a number of instances quite different
testimony from that given on the pre-.
liminary trial; she also contradicted
herself and other members of the fam
lily. These were on minor points
however, and will probably not Gu
much figure in the summing up.

SANTA CLAUS VISIT.

All the house was asleep,
And the fire burning low,
When, from fnr up the chimney,
Came down Il "Hol hol'
And a little. round man,
with n terrible scratching,
Dropped into the room
With "a wink hat was catching.
Yes dow he came, humping,
And humping and jumping,
And picked himself up without sign oil q
bruise!
"Ho! ho!" he kept on,
AS If bursting with cheer,
GOOD children, gay children,
Glad children, ~. here!
| have brought you fine dolls
And gay trumpets and rings,
Noah's Hrks and bright skates
And host OF good things!
/ have brought a whole sackiul,
a packful, u hnckiull
Come hither, come hthcr, come hither and
choose.
"Ho, no, What is this?
Why, they all arc asleep!
But their stockings are up
And my presents VIII keep!
SO, In with the candles,
The books and the toys,
All the goodies have
For the good girls and boys.
IN ram hem, and Jam them,
And slam them, and cram them;
All the stockings will hold while the tired
"Ho! no, How they'll laugh
When they open their eyes,
1Ia! ha! How wish
| could see their surprisc'
But u give one a kiss,
and then must be oil!
He, he! Little puss,
Does my breath make you cough?
Don't worry: I'll skurIy,
BE of in II hurry, ~ -
So you all may sleep on while finish my
cruise"
All the while his round shoulders
Kept ducking and ducking,
And his little fat fingers
Kept tucking and tucEing,
Until every stocking
Bulged ont ON the wall
As IL IL We're bursting
And ready TO fall
And, then, NIL at once,
with whisk and Il whistle,
And twisting himself
Like tough bit of gristle.
He bounced up again
Like the down of u thistle, -
And nothing was lett but the prints oil ms
