make a radical change IN the wording of an
old and well-knOwn eouplet. Instead OF
quoting it: Everything Is lovely and the
goose hangs high. it is now put: Every
thing is Wilson and the goose hangs high"

Gillian is understood to base his hopes,
to a great extent on the fact that
rice is Southern product and will
not grow in a Northern climate. He
seems to forget that it does grow
away to the north of ST. Paul, near
the Manitoba border, along Leech and
WinnebagoshiSh lakes, for instance. and he
will find that very large crop of this staple
will be grown in the Fourth district this
year.
A Dakota editor, who had just been
shaved by his local barber, gets off the fol-
lowing in his last issue: "When the Lord
puts man on earth with mission to per-
form and cuts him out to butcher hogs,
why is it that, in nine cases ont of ten, the
man drifts into the barbering business"
This is hardly fair to the tOnSoral profess
sion. The Dakota barber would undoubt-
eddy claim that he was performing his
proper mission when he tackled the editor.

The two candidates in the Fourth dis
trict fifty represent the two extremes OF
heat and cold Rice brings visions of the
Sunny South and the large plantations,
while Gilfllan reminds one OF the Arctic re-
gions. An excellent idea is to have series
of public tabIeauX entertainments Ill ST.
Paul and Minneapolis, one OF the striking
features of which would be the North and
South poles as illustrated IN the persons OF
Gillian and Rice.
King Otto, of Bavaria. is said to be suf-
fering from another violent attack OF in

run for the legislature in Illinois. lie

there.

Charlie Jones was an Office boy in New
York a few years ago. Now he is mill
ionaire, and he spells his name JOhneS. He
affects the English, you know, too. Some
night when he is out doing the town and
looking for 6ght-aching to show his skill
by putting 'ead on somebOdy-he will run
up against plain. blunt American citizen,
who will add the extra ''h' without stop
ping to think about his ST. 900, 900 or the
way in which he spells his name.
Did it ever strike you how funny it
would be if Bulls should turn out to be the
only Democratic congressman elected in
Minnesota this year?

Miss Alice Whiteacre, Chicago soprano,
has made a successful debut at Covent
Garden. London. An addition was built
to the stage so that the supporting company
could find room to stand.
Count de Lesseps has ten children. And
yet the impression has gone abroad that he
has been kept busy all his life building
canals.
II. T. Tolmie, of Spring Valley, is a
striking type of the Northwestern rustler.
He is doing great work for Wilson and
Ames and if either is elected Tolmie ought
to have a consulship or something fatter
and better.

Frank l.. Randall, the secretary of the
of the First congressional Democratic com
mittee, is comparatively newcomer to
Winona He formerly resided at New
Ulm He looks trile like Theodore Til
ton, and has good many of the qualities
of his illustriouS namesake, Samuel j. 1t
need not surprise anybody if Randall goes
to congress himself some day.

A daughter of Prof. David Swing, of
Chicago, was recently married to gentle
man named Starring. of Calmar. La. A st.
Paul man hopes, if congratulations are in
order, that JOY and good luck may attend
the happy couple as they swing around the
circle Oh their starring tour.

One of the signers of the address by the
Republican congressional committee of the
Fourth district is Charles Boo. The modest
Samuel NchOlS-WhO wouldn't accept an
Office if it was rendered him on silver
platter with sugar sprinkled all over it's
also on the list. Samuel considers himself
big bug in the party. Putting this and
that together the document bears every ap-
pearance of being a bugaboo. While in a
funny mood Samuel would be justified in
saving to Charles, 'Peeka-BOo.
If McGill is elected governor keep your
eve on the statesman from Wilkin county.
When Stordock is offered railroad COM
missionership-in pursuance of the agree
ment-he will be compelled to decline it in
order to maintain his reputation for verac-
ity. He has, you know, denied that any
such compact was entered into.

A correspondent wants to know what r.
c. Judson does in the winter time, when
there is nothing to do about state fair mat
boxes in the stores at Pennington, very
close to warm stove. and entertains a
curious crowd of citizens with stories OF
the horse races and agricultural displays.
and gives out vague hints of wonders thai
will De at the fair next year. In this way
the boom for the fair goes on without skip
or break.
