Indulging in personalities. If they succeed
it will be necessary for the Minneapolis Jour

to engage new editorial writers, as the men
now doing duty on those papers hold their po-
sitions on account of their ability to ''roast"

There were two queens of goodly mold,
Welded to kings of ancient might;
The locks OF one were red as geld,
The others were as black as night.

In their sweet presence hours 1 spent,
And both those queens madly loved.

dency from this time forward will be to
employ less and less LABOR, And this fact
has received further impetus by the applica-
ton OF natural gas to the furnaces in the oil

of coal and ashes, so that to all the boilers
fitted in this way it is only necessary to add
