CIOckUOH (Cdl. MALL.
Early Monday morning man utterly de-
void of clothing was seen roaming over the
fields about six miles east of this city. He
made several vain attempts to enter farm
houses and was then seen to scoop out a
hole in the dirt and conceal therein what
subsequently proved to be money. ST
Hughes, who has the reputation of being
one OF the strongest men in the cOun try,
captured the demented roamer and re-
covered the money. There was $3.50 in the
pile. The captive was taken to farm
house near by. On the way he got possess
sion of the money and scattered it, losing
S25. He was brought in a carriage to the
city and was lodged in jail to await examin-
alton for insanity. On the road in he
leaped from the carriage several times,
jumped fence along the roadside and was
captured only after long chase. The luna
tic gave his name as Richard Hink, and
stated that his home was on Telegraph ave-
nue., between Thirty-seyenth and Thirty
eighth streets, Oakland. He is apparently
40 years old, of dark complexion, me-
dunn build, and rather above average
height. Through the wicket of his cell
this morning the prisoner stated that he had
come from Oakland in search of work.
''They say 1 was roaming around without
my clothes on" he added, land 1 know
I was out of my head. I.had been smok-
ing good deal tobacco, not opium"
''Did it ever affect you in the same way
before?"
''Once, when was 16 years old. Yesterday
and the day before l smoked excessively;
aud, besides that, had eaten nothing, and
the hot sun was beating down On me-"

all that sort of thing. A party of those

The record of marriage licenses at the
office of the clerk of the district court pre-
sents an interesting study at this time. 1t
shows that every day from two to ten
couples are accorded the gracious permits
sion of the state of Minnesota to
go and wed. But the singular fea-
ture is that so few of the aspirants,
at this time, for connubial felicity are
native Americans. To judge by the names
alone, none but Scandinavians are being
married. The Jan Jansens, John John
sons. Ole Olesens and Christian Christian
sens are marrying right along, but only one
name in every fifty is an American name.
There is so little social red tape about a
Scandinavian wedding, is one reason given
for this, but it is scarcely sufficient one.
However, the fact remains 1t is singular,
too, that Monday is always the big day for
licenses. The presumption is that Sunday
is universal counting day, that on it the
matches are made, and on Monday the ex-
cited groom rllsheS off for the necessary
license

How Young Ladies Make Marriages
Unpopular With Young Men of

OliZing Marriages.

There is at least one young lady of Min
neapols who failed to hear that admirable
lecture given by Rev. John l.. Scudder, in
his baccalaureate sermon to the graduating
class of the Bennett seminary. Or, if she
heard it, hearing it she understood it not,
nor appreciated it. A fair girl she is, too,
whose personal beauties are unexcelled in
even this fair Northwest, and thought, as
| looked at her, she might we'll have taken
her place in the vision of female loneliness
cOnjured up before the admiring eyes of
Faust by MephistopheleS. Her eyes are
blue as Lake Harriet when it reflects an
unclOuded sky, her features regular as a
dream of Raphael, and her complexion
dainty as a peach fresh from the matchlesS
hand of nature while her form and car
riage are regal. During one of the warm
evenings of the middle of last week, she
sat with girl friend in one of Nicollet
avenues fashionable cream parlors, and
from my perch in the window 1 saw her
through the veil of lace curtain and could
not avoid hearing every word of the CONVEX
sation. ..
ut seems to be the only alternative,
she was saying, ''and it is certainly the
choice. anyhow. / don't care snap for
him and he knows it, but If he wants to
take me as / am and trust to the future, I
don't see how | can do better. If l once go
into that abominable store I'll lose caste
and that will be the end of me"
WELL" rejOined her friend, ''of the two
evils L think l should choose the lesser. It's
bad enough to stay in store. but dear me,
Pd hate to marry that man, even if he were
ten times richer. There's not shadow of
chance of his dying and the first thing
you know you'll be stuck in the nursery for
life. Take my advice and go to the store"
Their saucers having been scOoped clean,
they took their departure at this juncture.
From what I overheard, this young lady,
by some vicissitude of fortune, finds she
has her living to make and to escape the
irksome task, has made up her mind to
marry for home. She belongs to good
family, generally supposed to be well off,
and has evidently been taught that it is
disgrace to Ego into trade" So she pre-
fers to sell herself and go to the altar with
falsehood in her heart, as she swears to
love the man who buys her. / am inclined
to believe she never heard that Scudder
sermon. God help that couple when the
trials of domesticity descend upon them,
for they will be cast upon an ocean of
troubles, in which, as a life preserver,
money very poorly takes the place of love.
l should like to be behind another screen
and see how she conducts herself when she
tells that poor, .deluded man, she will
marry him.

Can't BE Too Careful.

The general superintendent Of a Michigan
railroad was on the train the other day when
the conductor stopped it to put man off
because he had no money to pay his fare.

tendent anXiously inquired:
''Are you sure that wasn't member of
the legislature?" h,-,...

He Was Accommodated.
Detroit Free Press.


He stood in the door of a passenger coach
about to leave the Central depot the other
day and called out in loud voice:
is there railroad hog on this carp"
Many turned to look at him, but no one
replied.
Because, il there isn't I'll take the
other COACH" continued the man, with a
bar of iron in his tones.
"Oh, well, nobody wants to drive you
out" replied man in the center of the
car. ''If that's all you are looking for here

And he turned the next seat over, put
his baggage on it and got himself in shape
to occupy two seats without an inch of
room to snare.

4Lock Of Guiteau,s Hair.

hair. 1t was sent by the assassin to a
young lady who had. written him sympa-
thizing letter, but it was never called for
and evidently found its way to the dead
letter office. Gen. Croker, the warden of
the jail, says Guiteau received more letters
of coincidence than people were aware Of
For weeks after the assassination Guiteau's
mail would frequently exceed 100 letters a
day. Most Of these communications were
abusive in character and in many cases
threatening. Occasionally a crank like
himself would write anonymously, COM

This remark dropped from the lips of one
of the substantial MEN of Minneapolis. He
was standing near the door of Croker
rink, at the close of the festival, and re-
ferred to young lady who had just passed.
She was quite pretty, and figured at the
winter carnival as one Of the historic beau
ties, which one it is unnecessary to state.

well-tO-do, and his comment would be

means that she is beautiful beyond words,

Marriages Unpopular,

The hymeneal torch burned dimly last
week, viewed from a social standpoint.
There were no swell weddings, with flower
dressed affairs, yelled brides, nervous
groonls, chatting bridesmaids and offcious
ushers. No twelve-button kid whispered
its sweet, tremulOuS secrets to the young,
innocent cloth of brand new wedding
suit on the way up the aisle. The pa
ternal "bless you, my children" was not
uttered all week, so far as returns have
come in, and the records of the office of the
register of deeds contained no transfer of a
home by Mr.. A. to his daughter, Mrs. c.,
sin consideration of Sd and the natural
love and Affection" ETC., marking the
paternal approval of a daughters choice.
The unvarnished fact is that weddings
are not very popular, especially with the
upper classes, and the revelation is made
by society young man, that ''they will
continue unpopular until salaries get higher.
or the price of home and the cost of living
get lower"

81, 500 year, and from what [ know of
the young ladies Of my acquaintance, that

lady friends told me she spent 5000 year
ON herself alone. and you may easily see
how far short ST, 500 salary would fall in
that case. By the time paid house rent

ing, with the table, fuel and light, where

There lies the whole secret-the right
kind of wife. Young ladies may at once
see the impression they leave on the aver
age young man. They have forced him to
regard them, not in the light of a help
meet, but as an expense luxury for which
he must pay a heavy price. The fright
kind of wife"-and yet they are found at
every turn Of life's highway. The man I'M
derestimates many a noble, true-hearted
girl, when he supposes she wants to walk
through life as toy or playmate. A wife
becomes different being when she assumes
that title, and her girlhood ways often do her
injustice. The most frivolous girl at a
party may be the very one who will live in
a log cabin on prairie with the man she
loves, and the best dressed girl may have
made every stitch of the elegant dress her.
self. The wife is really the head of more
prosperous and successful domestic institu-
tions than a man, and few are the men who
have risen to fame or wealth that may not
attribute it to the sound advice, the mother
wit or the practical economy of his wife.
1t is unfortunate, then, that young ladies
convey the wrong impression of their worth
to young men. 1t is unfortunate that so
many young men are frightened from
happy marriages by the spectres of expen-
sive wives. 1t is unfortunate that so MANY
young men are willing to be frightened,
and were it otherwise, the bells Of the Min
neapolis churches would be kept busy ring
ing out the glad tidings of the first steps
toward the foundation of happy homes.
