German Display in st. paul .

The annual meeting of the German Catholic
Central Benevolent Union of America,
brought to St Paul last week, delegates from
almost every State in the Union, who spent
several days in devotional exercises and in at
tending to the business of the association. On
Sunday, this and other Catholic SOCIETIES had
q, grand procession, The streets were
In the procession, were a very large num-
Der of societies, with elegant regalia and ban
ners, and seventeen bands of music The an
Gent order of Hibernians, 403 strong, were uni
formed in green and silver sashes and wearing
white plumes. The third division, of which
Ed Schliek was marshal was headed by a
large car drawn by four white horses, the car
being filed with thirty eight girls in white
dresses to represent Columbia and the yarious
states of the Union, each hearing a flag with
the name of state upon it The display, as
whole, was never excelled in st Paul, save by
the great Willard celebration last year.

The Pacific States Sure for Blaine.

Chicago, Special Telegram, Sept T.
Among yesterdays arrivals at the Grand Pa
cific was Secretary of the Interior Henry NJ
Teller, who was hurrying through from Den
yer to attend the late Secretary Folgers fun
eral In regard to politics, he said that
Colorado was sure for Blaine and Logan by
several thousand majority. The same would
apply to all the Pacific states. All the ad-
vices he had had from California were most
encouraging When asked what the position
of the senatorial fight in Colorado was at this
time he replied that he was not taking any
hand in the fight now, though he might before
the campaign was over. He thought Senator
Hills chances for reelection were not very
good The opposition seemed to have the in
side track While Mr.. Teller did not say he
was candidate, yet he distinctly affirmed
that he would not decline the honor if it was
held open TO him, and the impression conveyed
was that he was an aspirant indirectly, If not
directly He also stated that he did not think
Tabor could get the nomination for governor.

London. Special Cable. The resignation Of
the marquis of Ripon as yiceroy of India has
been anticipated for months and surprises no
body. The appointment of Earl Dufferin IS 8
surprise, but it is received with very general
commentator The reason officially stated
for Lord Ripon's resignation is the delicate
condition Of his health. But the discomfort
under his rule in India and the distrust of him
by English politicians, caused by his proposal
to disestablish the Church of England in India,
has also made his official life a burden. Those
who are disposed to criticise the appointment Of
Lord Dufferin say that by putting him in pure
" administrative place the government will
lose the benefit of the splendid diplomatic tai
ents which he has displayed at Vienna, St Pet
tersburg and Constantinople. 1t is said that
the new viceroy proposes to infuse unwonted
energy into the government of India, and will
seek to reduce or abolish the armies of the
tributary states, which he regards as growing
menace to England's supremacy in the East.

The Canadian Pacific.

General Manager Van Horne gives the fol-
lowing facts: The road will be constructed
FOR more than "a, 000, 600 less than the estimate
of cost made last session. There is a good
deal of tunneling, butnoimuch of formidable
character The longest tunnel is that at Lake
Kamloops, which extends some 800 feet Start
ing from the Eastern slope the road passes
west through the Kicking Horse pass, the
Rogers pass and the Eagle pass, coming out
at Lake Kamloops. Fully two-thirds of the
mountain work may be described as of an
easy character, more 50 than that north of
Lake Superior, ninety miles of the rail-
way on the latter section costing more to
build than the whole Rocky Mountain section.
The heaviest work we encounter is for dis
lance of seventy miles west of Sudbury juno
ton, and ON the west slope of the Rockies, and
both these sections will be finished this month.
On the Lake Superior section of the line the
tunnels have all been completed but one, and
the heavy work may be considered as accom-
plished / see nothing to prevent the COM
pletion of the whole railway from Callander to
the Pacific ocean by Sept |, 1885, just one year
hence. The government sections In British
Columbia being built by 0nderdonk & Co, are
well advanced, and viii be ready by July LIST
next Beyond Stephen, the summit of the
Rockies twenty-eight miles are now graded, and
the rails will shortly be laid.

shoot,nr of Henry.

julius r. Fredericks, who was sergeant in
the Greedy Polar expedition is in Minneapolis.
He denies that there were two factions in the
Greedy party, and says the men of the expedi-
ton were united and harmonious There may
have been cannibalism, but of this he has no
personal knowledge He gives the following
account Of the shooting of Henry: Henry had
been warned several times about stealing food,
but he repeated the offense, and finally Greedy
issued an order for his execution. Three guns
were loaded, two Of them with bali and one
with blank cartridge. Fredericks, Long and
Brainerd were detailed to carry the orders into
effect They took the guns and found Henry
$50 yards away in the act of stealing sealslzins.
The three men approached within twenty
yards, and the ranking man called out, Hen
ry, we are now compelled to carry out our or
ders.a The men fired and Henry dropped
dead Fredericks says his experience has not
satisfied him, and he intends to visit the Arctic
regions again as soon as possible.

Emperor william's Alarming Condition.

A Berlin cable special of Thursday says.
Intense excitement prevails here in conse-
quence of the sudden and perhaps serious i'll
ness of the Emperor William while reviewing
the grand military parade recently. His usu.
ally ruddy cheeks were observed to grow
deathly pale, his face fell upon his breast
and relaxing his hold upon the reins of his
horse, his body swayed to the right An in
slant later, had his condition been unobserved,
the stalwart form of the aged monarch would
have fallen in the dust, and probably been
mangled by the hoofs of hosts Of horses For
tunately his peril was observed in time to
avoid SO terrible a catastrophe, and score of
friendly arms were outstretched to save him.
The emperor was lifted from his horse and
removed to closed carriage. The emperor's
carriage, surrounded by strong guard, was
driven hastily to the palace, and his physicians
were at once summoned The belief is very
general, notwithstanding medical assurances
of his convalescence, that he has but little
while to live

More Damage by the Dakota cyclone.

The Alexandria Herald gives the following
description of damages by the cyclone in Han
son county, Oak: The damage in this county
seems to have commenced at Red Stone post
office. ]. II. Nolts house, barn, stacks and
tools, were mingled in one vast wreck and
swept onward. Pieces of the building, bed
ding, clothing and mail from the postoffice
were found strewn along three miles in the
track of the storm. Mr. Nolt and one son
were away from home. His wife and family,
being babe in arms, barely got into
the cellar when the house was taken, and
they looked up shelterless at clear sky,
thankful none of them had been killed.
Mrs s. A. Wilhelm's house was taken
up into midair, whirled twenty rods northwest
where it seems to have struck on its roof, and
plowed into the earth until only splinters, bits
of clothing, scattered and broken utensils
showed which way the storm went Walter
Peck was moving, saw the storm coming and
got his team unhitched they broke away
from him and ran He lay down and held on
some grass roots. Parts of hay and grain
stacks sailed over him. Household goods and
flying timbers raced past Great chunks of
ice fell all around him The hay rake rolled
rapidly along The mower was taken fifteen
rods and dashed to the ground In hundred
pieces In minute it was over and Mr..
Peck arose from the ground unhurt, and
found the only thing he had damaged was the
mower Nelson Van Tassel,s stacks were
blown down The tornado started for Charles
FL Wards, took the tops off some stacks,
started toward H w. Peck's then toward w.
d. Knapps, twisting up corn stalks backset-
ting breaking tearing up flax and piling sod
in mounds three feet high. In some places
the sod was cleaned off breaking as smooth as
a house floor When it got within twenty rods
of Knapp's he moved into the cellar on run.
Circlng againit went back to Wards moved
his house, which fronted the south, clear
from the foundation, and set it down front
ing the east. Everything about it was
twisted out of shape Wards granary, con-
tanning 500 bushels of grain, was twisted off
the foundation one side of the roof taken and
part of the shingles from the other side, cow
was killed and other damage done. The
neighbors came right to the rescue with teams
and money, and ere this his damage has been
all repaired, Willard Woodwork had about
one hunered bushels of oats standing in shock.
This went up and never came down. When
the tornado crossed Long Lake the wa
ter fairly boiled, and in less than a half
minute enormous hail stones fell The largest
we heard of measured saven inches the long
way Hail fell all along the route The
storm only took swath about five rods wide,
and $1,000 is a large estimate for the damage
done in this county.

Adaptation to Climate.

Dr. A. Berghaus, in Popular Science Monthly.
The celebrated physician, Boerhaaye,
believed that nothing breathing with
lungs could live in an atmosphere having
as high a temperature as that of the
blood. According to this dictum, one
ought to die at temperature of 100
deg, but Banks enjoyed good health on
the Senegal when the Thermometer rose
in his cabin to 100 deg. and 100 deg.
Men live on the southwest coasts of
Africa, and in other hot regions, where
the heat Of the sand under their feet
reaches 140 or $50 deg. Men in deep
mining shafts and under diving bells
are able to support an atmospheric
pressure of30, 600 kilogrammes as well
as pressure of only s 900 kilogrammes
on the highest mountains. Cassini
thought that no animal could live at a
greater height than 400 meters, or
Is. 600 feet; but there are several inhab-
tied places situated at still greater
height, as, for instance, Gartok, IN the
Hinalavas. Alexander Won Humboldt
assembled Chimborazo to height OF
nearly 1000 meters, or Is, 2S6 feet, with
ont suffering any harm The pressure
of the atmosphere is so light at such ele-
vations that, as Humboldt was assured,
wild animals when driven up to them
bleed at the mouth and nose. Only the
dog is able to follow man as far and as
high as he can go; but this animal, too,
loses his acute smell in Congo and Sy-
ria, and the power of barking in Surf
nam and at great heights; and the finer
breeds of dogs can not long endure the
conditions of height Of more that g.
760 meters, or IL, 800 feet, while there
are towns IN the Andes at as great
height as 10, 500 or Ia 900 feet.
