Good Sport.
St. Paul Dec. 28.


One cold December morning party
of sportsmcr started off in a boat on Il
duck-shooting expedition on a lake in
South Germany. 1t had tained shortly
before, and the rain had frozen as soon
as it reached the ground. Our sportsmcn
approached IN island the shore of
which abounded ilr reeds. where the.
expected to find plenty Of game. On
getting quite close to the island they
saw, tc their ast,nishment, q number
of wild 'lucks clumsily waddling along
on the land. without Attempting to take
flight. Stimulated by curiosity the
members of the party abstainetl from
firing, but tried to get as close rs posi-
bic to the birds. Great was their sur
prise to find this II perfectly easy task,
for they actually managed to seize
several of them with their hands. The
mystery was then explained: The icy
rain had, SO to speak, glued their
feathers into a solid mass, and made it
impossible for the poor creatures to use
their wings. As might be naturally cx
pected, the lucky sportsmen collected
the whole flock of wild ducks with no
more exertion than you would pick up
ripe apples under the trees. Wiener

Congressman Springer of Illinois says he

enabling act for the admission of Dakota,
Montana, New Mexico and Washington teri
ritories. He will try to have it substituted
mission bill when the latter comes up for
consideration. He thinks the idea OF ad-
mitting all at once will prevent opposition
on party grounds, as they will be equally
divided politically, and the new states will
have voice in the presidential election in

IT IS WONDERFUL

how easily rheumatism begins, and how
insidiously it grows in the system, until
one is startled to find himself its victim
in either the acute or chronic form. He
then learns the fearful tenacity of its
grip and the utter powerlessness of the
ordinary remedies to give relief
Probably to no disease have physicians
given more study, and none has more
completely baffied their efforts to provide
q specific; and until Athlophoros was dis
covered there was no medicine which
would surely cure rheumatism, neuralgia
and nervous or sick headache. Thousands
Of testimonials like the following prove
beyond question that Athlophoros is the
only reliable remedy, and that it will do
all that is claimed for it.

Why Boys Should Not Be snubben.

Don't snub boy because he wears
shabby clothes. When Edison, the
inventor of the telephone, frsi entered
Boston he wore pair of yellow linen
breeches ii the depth of winter
Don't snub boy because his home
is plain and unpretending. Abraham
Lincoln's early home was log cabin.
Don't snub boy because of the
ignorance of his parents. Shakespeare,
the worlds poet, was the son of a man
who was unable to write his own
name.
Don't snub boy because he chooses
humble trade. The author of ''The
Pilgrims Progress" was tinker
Don't snub boy because of physi-
cal disability. Milton was blind.
Don't snub a boy because Of dull
ness in his lessons. Hogarth, the
celebrated painter and engraver, was
a stupid boy at his books.
Don't snub boy because he shutters
Demosthenes, the great orator oi
Greece, overcame harsh and STAN
mering voice.
Don't snub any one. Not alone be-
cause some day they may far out.
strip you in the race of life, but be.
cause it is neither kind, nor right, mol

mated. They made this request, t. be-
cause they required immunity from ar
rest, and they warned him that mas
much as they knew all the detectives
it would be folly for him to inform In
spector Byrnes or Inspector Murry, for
If they saw any of the inspectors men,
communication between them would
cease. Judge Hilton suggested to the
go-between that it would be a faireI
proposition for them to return to him
the body, have it properly identified
and trust to his honor to give him the
money, which he certainly would do,
and that II immunity from arrest was
the only hindrance, that he would
pledge his word that he would not take
any steps to apprenend the robbers fol
at least forty-eight hours, which would
give them ample opportunity to place
themselves i'm a foreign country where
they could not be reached for the
the simple crime ofrobbery. They re-
fused to listen to this proposition and
Judge Hilton then declared that he
had made the last effort to recover the
body that he should make; that he had
done all that mortal man could do to
recover the body of Mr.. Stewart; that
Mrs. Stewart had recovered in meas.
ure from her depression, and had be.
csme reeoncied to the terrible loss, that
she had made up her mind to submit to
the inevitable.
The body of Stewart was never re-
covered. 1t is not in the crypt at Gar.
den City, nor does any one outside o.
the few ghouls who made the midnight
descent upon st. Marks Cemetery
know where the corpse of the merchant
prince found its last resting place. Iii:
believed by many that the statement
made by Mr.. Romaine in his letter that
unless the negotiations were CLOSED
promptly the body would be covered
with quicklime and consumed, was car
ried into effect.
