MINNEAPoLIs, MINI, Aug. lS.-The
Northwestern Miller says; Mills did not
close down the latter part Of last week,
as expected, and the -four production
reached a very fair figure. The output
was l2l, l75 barrels averaging 20,lS0 bar
rels daily, against l42, 280 barrels the pre-
ceeding week, and 1890 the correspond
ing time in 1885. The matter of letting
water out Of the canal to clean IL was
postponed till Sunday morning. Since
that time all, except three mills, have
been idle. The three running are the
plllsbury CA" Columbia snd Phoenix,
capacity 5000 barrels. They have ample
mower, and are running strong. The
cleaning OF the canal Will probably not
be finished before Monday. Most OF the
mills are taking advantage OF the stop TO
make needed repairs. Through a
stronger wheat market -four has better
tone. Exports last week, 1880 barrels.
Receipts, wheat, bs7 $50 bushels ship
ments, $3.50 bushels; -four, 100000
barrels; mill-stufi, 1856 tons. Wheat In

AZTEC BELLE IN NEW YORK.
Making Chocolate for visitors at tho
Fair-A Beautiful Spanish Belle.

Making Chocolate for Visitors at tho
Fair-A Beautiful spanish Belle.
A prize belle from Mexico is on view here.
She is an exhibit in the Aztec fair. Fashion
able girls 60 in troops 10 see her, for they
have heard Of the tropical beauty of equa-
torial maidens, and they wish TO compare her
with themselves. She makes chocolate for
the visitors. She has clear complexion and
comparatively regular features. Her big
black eyes are half concealed by dropping
lids, and they glow with the languorous light
that poets rave about. An expression of sad
ness, or it may be discomfort, about her
mouth, invests her with imaginary romantic
interest. She has small, delicate hands and q
figure in which the promise of future fatness
is not so obvious as in the other Greaser
maidens
A swarthy young man, who plays guitar
and looks as though he might have q ready
stiletto somewhere about his person, hovers
around in an ominous way, and by bis dark
looks discourages any demonstrativeness on
the part Of the New York handles who mani
fest unusual interest in chocolate making
What Mexican girls are apt 70 grow into 10
shown in the older women OF the collection.
They are fat, ungainly and wrinkled. The
swarthy skin looks lcathery, and the dark
sonora Of uncertain age is about as romantic
in appearance as an old bootleg.
The beauty on exhibition is forgotten in
the presence of a senorita seen occasionally
among the visitors. She has the dark skin
and coal black hair Of the Mexican, but tho
oval face and delicate, regular features are
Spanish, with no traces Of the Indian. Her
black eyes are sparkling and brilliant. Her
figure is 1.-the and graceful, and all her
movements are easy and composed. In
dress she is American. A large Gainsbor-
ough hat sets Off her shapely head artistic
ally, and her wavy hair Is dressed low upon
her forehead. The fair Spaniard strolls
about the booths, stopping to talk with the
Mexican exhibitors now and then, aud un-
consciously attracting the admiring atten-
ton of the visitors. When she is present
the nose Of the Greaser beauty is out Of joint.
The Spanish Mexican beauty is a relative of
the Mexican consul here, and we are to re
ceive her, understand, into our exclusive
society Belle in Pioneer Press.

nenth Of AdeInihn Nelson.

II had an engagement while in an eastern
city TO visit the theatre with Miss Nelson,
who was not playing at the time. | had
secured a private box, where she could sit
unobserved and enjoy the pleasure, somewhat
rare TO her, Of witnessing the efforts Of some
other artists / knew her well, but was not
aware Of this organic weakness, and was,
therefore, somewhat perturbed when she spoke
about il and by way of precaution asked me,
in case she became sick and speeches. simply
70 give her good shaking and she would DO
all right in a moment. You may imagine
that the possibility Of such an occurrence did
not add materially TO my comfort, but, Of
course, the poor girl could not take the
chance Of having such a turn when in COM
pany with one who HADN'T the remotest idea
what 10 do for her, and couldn't blame her
for guarding against any fatal results as well
as she coHld.
Nthink she must have had premonition
of trouble that night, for, sure enough, when
the play was about half over, she attracted
my attention by-some slight movement, and
saw at once that the trouble she feared was
upon her Half terrified out of my wits, l
still had sufficient presence OF mind 10 follow
the directions, previously given, and in mo
ment had the satisfaction OF hearing her
speak. The incident was not observed by the
audience, as the box curtains hid us from
view, and the trouble was over quicker than
IL can I've described, but can assure you /
have been thankful thousand times that /
had been advised what 10 do in that moment
of terror. From that circumstance ! have
evolved my own theory in regard TO the real
cause OF Miss Nelson's death. 1t was repo. ed
at the time that the poor dead Juliet had
taken poison, as Shakespenre's Juliet was
supposed TO have done ages before. To me,
however, it seems probable that the tired
heart had stopped short, as 1t had often tried
TO do before, and this time no one was at
hand who knew her disposition or the danger
that constantly hung over her. don't know
whether any of these statements were ever
printed before or not, but l do know that
what have stated as my own experience Is
true Chicago Herald Interview.

The Chinese arc Turanians, who have never
in the worlds history, as a race, been con-
querors and civilizers They have, in some
instances, established barbaric empires
Egypt, Assyria, Carthage, older India end
China are instances-but they have never
reached the higher plano Of human develop
ment The dominating japanese classes are
do-Europeans, who from their race-cradle
in the shadows OF the lofty Hindoo Kush
mountains haze gone forth 20 conquer coun-
tries and build empires from the Indian
ocean on the one side west 20 the shores OF
the Pacific ON tho other. The Grecian and
Roman empires Of ancient times, the Ger
man, Anglo Saxon, French and American
nations are the achievements OF these indom-
liable races. The japanese, in their unex-
ampled progress Of the past two decades, bid
fair 10 be a worthy sister race TO those which
have built these empires and established these
civilizations.
The handful Of Indo- European conquerors
Of the japanese islands have maintained
their race characteristics through more than
5000 years. They have the same high cour-
age that their far of ancestors had when
they left their continental homes in search Of
wider and more fertile fields and more genial
skies and climates They conquered the
brave and hardy aboriginal race Of the ISL
ands, repulsed and almost annihilated the
Mongol hosts sent by the great Kublai Kahn
10 conquer their country, carried ON sue
cessful war of conquest against Corea and
sent fleets of hardy sailors to ravage the
coasts OF China, which was 80 successfully
done that even the old capital and great city
Of Marking was taken by them.
After the lapse OF long centuries the feat
ures OF these descendants of the conquerors
are easily dlstinguishable. They have an
almost perfect Greoian profile, with high
bridged noses, low cheek homes and thin lips.
These facial characteristics are seen more
markedly among the pure blooded Of the en-
peror's nobility at Kioto, the old capital
They characterize all the upper classes, with
few exceptions The nobility, the men at
arms and the old landed proprietors have
these distinctive features. The smaller farm
ers, the artisans and mechanics the mer-
chants and bankers, and the laborers have
the features Of the conquered or Kamchat-
kan race. These latter have low foreheads,
bridgeless fiat nose, high cheek bones, and
thick lips. In the lady and her maid and in
the landowner and his laborers you will see
these two contrasting types.-San Francisco

First they cut the car up into two cOmpart-
mcnts, one for those who 90 and one for those
who do not smoke. Then the seats are put in
after q most charmingly original fashion,
with any number Of aisles, and finally the
conductor, who completes the outfit, is poem
all by himself. His uniform in point of COR
geousness and completely, would serve as an
excellent model for a country regiment of
militia And his state Of perfect content
rlent is something cheerful 10 look upon. The
passengers who travel with him and from
whom he collects fares are oil about his
equals, and while his politeness is complete
and exhaustive he is in his element and has a
pleasant time. There is nearly always on
board some red checked young person in
clined TO be sociable and merry when he
works his way to her end of the car, and the
necessity of thinking every time Of some
ching new and smart to say to her insures for
him that mental activity unknown to the
dispirited collector Of nickels. There is miss
ing that outraged class of beings which in
America is forever taking somebody's num-
Der, and, in short, the life Of car conductor
in Vienna, while it may not be the most ex-
citing and satisfactory in the world, is GER
tainly not the dullest.
As in Paris, there is limit to the number
of persons admitted ON board; but this can
not be said to be very harmful to the pecuni-
airy interests Of the company, since the limit
is reached when every seat, every aisle and
both platforms are packed so full that IL one
man during the journey were TO swallow a
sandwich the sides of the car might burst

ney which you have undertaken. The con-
ductor learns where you want TO go, and sells
you tickets which range in price from "a TO

Oh. yes, they are all back IN town
From shore. nook and mountain today,
But the hearts they have brought from these
places are not
The hearts which they carried away.
Tho belle OF the season was out
On her afternoon drive in the park. ~
AS she lifted her eyes beheld in surprise
A hope lying dead In the dark.

She was fairer than ever, l thought,
For her beautiful face was aglow with the grace
or a love which the summer has brought
That bride who went forth in the spring
In glory OF Joy and Of light,
Tho she plays well her part, know that her
