How Sam Randall Looks.

The Hon. Sam Randalrs appearance just
now is thus described in the Philadelphia
Times. The member from the Third dis
trict looked remarkably we'll yesterday
afternoon, considering the hard siege lac
has passed through, and was in excellent
spirits. He begins to look as he did be-
fore struck down. and his physician, DR..
Robert W. Martin. expressed the belief
that his distinguished patient is in no
danger Of relapse. Mr.. Randalls tall
form did not I'LL out the suit of black
which he always wears as it formerly did.
The thick head of black hair is more inter-
mixed with gray than it was six months
age. The long fingers are thin and white.
but the eyes are clear, bright, and certain.
while the lips which surmount the square
Jaw have the same expression as of old.

The trade In Christmas trees and green's
grows larger year by year. Thirty years
ago Christmas tree was seldom seen ex-
cept in some homo Of the richest class,
and the adornment Of churches for the
festival season was confined to the Catho.
lie and Episcopal denominations. But the
immense increase Of our German popula-
ton has popuiarized the Christmas tree
throughout the length and breadth Of the
land, and with the waning Of old Puritan
ideas the decoration Of the churches of all
denominations has become customary.
The extent to which materials for these
purposes are required is shown by the fact
that a single dealer in New England last
year disposed of 10000 Christmas trees.

carried the sash and the major portion of
the glass with him. He was badly hurt by
the fall, and the policeman who took him
in charge had to carry him away. No
bones were broken but he was horribly cut
over the head and hands. He was taken
to the central police station, but when his
rawlings ceased he was taken to his home
again. Shortly afterward he again be-
came violent and il was found necessary to
take him to the county Jail.

MINNESOTA,


Source OF the Father Of Waters
Parties from Minneapolis, while on
hunting expedition near Lake Itasea dis
Glazier properly Elk Lake. was the source
of the Mississippi river. The true source
is number Of large springs that pour ont
from the mountain about three miles
southeast of Itasca. The springs burst
out from the foot Of the mountain and
form small, round lake about forty rods
In diameter. This lake has an outlet--a
creek about foot wide--which flows
northwest about mile and half and
forms another lake Ia ravine. This creek
is from six inches to ten inches deep at
this season of the year, and in the wet
season much larger and deeper. and is fed
by numerous other smaller streams, as is
also the second lake. The creek runs on
through the second lake, which is about
sixty rods wide by eighty or ninety long.
After leaving this lake the stream flows q"
toward Itasca, rapidly increasing III width
and depth till II is from one to two feet
uecp AMI Al tAe uslSIuoiuoVuoi Unity Icct
wide. There Is no doubt that this is the
true source Of the Father Of Waters, us
the volume If water that flows in by this
channel Is vastly more than that which
comes from Lake Glazier. From the lat
ter there is onls small stream, three or
four feet wide and two or three inches
deep. There are other streams emptying
into the principal one described and which
aid in increasing the volume Of water
which flows into the Itasca. On the west
another creek empties into Lake Itasca
which also helps to feed the Mississippi.
| This creek is somewhat smaller than the
one first described, but still carr es con-
siderable volume of water with il. The
information concerning the new discovery
is yet Incomplete and is being held back
by those who know the most about it till
they can get the most minute details.
