WILL HAVE A PAIR OF EN-
Hennepin County Republicans
Decide Upon Dates for Conven-
tiOnS.


Decide Upon Dates for Conven-
tions.
The Republican county committee
met yesterday afternoon at the court
house and decided to call county con-
yention for Sept. 3 to elect thirty-eight
delegates to the state convention. They
also decided to call the county convert
ton for the purpose of nominating
county officers on the 9th of August.
The apportionment for delegates will
be the same as for the county conyen-
ton held last May, with the
exception of the towns of Champlin.
Brooklyn, Medina, Independence'
Bloomington and Eden Prairie. which
are each allowed an extra delegate.
There was hot little fight over the
question whether two conventions
should be held or only one. but the anti
McGill men carried the day and decided
that it would be better for them to have
two conventions, so that trades could
be made between the aspirants for
county offices and the McGill managers.

A Mule up a Tree.

A mule can do good many things,
but it may be doubted whether he can
climb q tree. The Mobile Register,
however, tells of a mule that climbed
into tree and died there standing. 1t
was during the great floods in the Ala
bama and the high waters in April.
1886. The mule probably did not climb
the tree, as The Register suggested at
the time, but rather, as Mr.. Debardele-
ben says, was drowned on some Of the
plantations along the river and fioated
with the tide and lodged in the
branches of an oak tree near the Nc
Neil Smith landing. When the waters
went down the mule was left lodged in
the tree. Of course in the process of
time the dead mules body decayed,
and the bones and skin, dried out by
the wind and sunshine are there yet.
The form doesn't seem very much
changed except on close inspection,
and at distance looks exactly like a
real live mule hanging in the tree.

is the rapid growth of the brain in
the first half year of life as compared
with the increase in height and the

years of age as 100, the weight of the

RAPID COMMUNICATIONS When the
lrst electric telegraph was established,
according to the British postmaster
general, the speed of transmission was
from four to five words minute on
the hve-neddle instruments. In 1S49
the average rate for number of news
paper messages was seventeen words
minute. The present pace of the cleo
trio telegraph between London and
Dublin. where the Wheatstone auto
matte instrument is employed, reaches
462 words minute and thus what
was regarded as mira culous sixty years
ago has multiplied q hundredfold in
one half century.
PREHISTORIC MINES. An accoun

The flints formed bed underlying

ing the marks of the rude deer-ho IN
picks, were excavated. The roffs OF
the galleries were supported by pillars
ana props, as in modern mining, but
the results of cave-ins are still to be

OF ancient workshops, where the flint

During the last two census decades
the wealth Of the United States in
creased $28, 100000, 900, but OF this
ltwenty-eight billions the farmers and
farm values gained only five, while 9th.
er classes gained twenty.three. This
gain by the farmers was due entirely
to the opening up of new lands on the
public domain, for farm values in all
the older States fell off. This decline
was shown in the shrinkage OF the av-
erage value of farms from So, 200,
where it was in 1860, to So, 500 in
1880. In one county alone in Illinois
this shrinkage amounts to $3,0OO,.

Effect of Coffee on the Brain.

Coffee acts upon the brain as slim
ulant. melting it to increased activity
and prod ucing sleeplessness; hence it
is of great value as an ant;d ote to mar
cotic poisons. 1t is also su pposed to
prevent the rapid waste in the tissues
of the body, and in that way enables it
to support life on less food These
effects are due to the volatile oil and
also to a peculiar crystalizable nitro
genous principel. termed caffeine. The
leaves Of the plant likewise contain the
same principle, and the inhabitants of
the island of Sumatra prefer an infusion
of the leaves to that of the berries. Its

The Recent Growth of the Argentine
Republic.

During the last twenty-five years the
population Of the Argentine Republic
has increased 154 per cent, while that
of the United States has increased but
70 per cent, and the city of Buenos
Ayers is growing faster than Minnea-
polls OF Denver. Last year it received
1914 600 immi grants from Europe, and
the natural increase is very large. The
newcomers are mostly Italians and
Basques, with a sprinkljng of Germans,
Swiss, and Swedes. TO tempt the i'm
migrants into the agricultural distr cts
the government has enacted land laws
even more liberal than ours. Each
head of a family is entitled TO 25O acres
free, and much more as he desires to
purchase, to limit of 1900 acres at
about seventy-five cents an acre in our
money. Or the settler may acquire 1900
acres free after five years by planting
200 hundred acres to grain and twenty
four acres to timber. Free transporta-
ton from Buenos Ayers to the place of
location is granted to all settlers and
their families, exemption from taxation
for ten years, and colonization societies
are organized which issue bonds guar
anteed by the government, the pro-
ceeds of which are loaned to the set
tiers in sums not greater than $1,000,
for five years. with interest at six per
cent, upon the cultivation of q certain
amount of land and the erection Of a
certain amount of improvements. The
results of these benefcient laws are
CONSPICUOUS. In 1886 nearly nine hun
dred thousand acres of wild land were
ploughed and planted. One firm in
Buenos Ayers sold 1900 reapers manu-
featured in the United States, and other
firms a lesser number; elevators are
being erected upon the banks of the
rivers. from which wheat is loaded into
vessels for Brazil and Europe. and the
average crop was twenty-five bushels
os wheat to the acre. William E. CIR

tramping around the country and in

versing with no one except his fellow
workers, seeking no outlet for his in
dlyidual talent and merit, he will have
lmblbed in his mature wears ideas so
erroneous, SO impracticable and so at
variance with the accepted ideas of the
progressive business age in which he
lives, that he will necessarily be classed
as an ',old fogy,' possibly a CRANK
and maybe, under favorable circum-
stances. turn out to be "Socialist,"
an Anarchist" or, under some other
name, an enemy of human progress.
With the many thousand opportuni-
ties now open for young, vigorous and
sensible men to launch out in business
for themselves, we say it is a pitiable
sight to see young. sensible fellow
tying himself on to an 'order' or an
reorganization, with the expectation
that it will, through its orders for
strikes, boycotts and resolutions, etc,
assist him in procuring a good home
for himself and the family that every
sensible young man expects some
time to grace it.

charge nothing for it. 1t is simply
this: Go to work for yourself Use
your best Judgment, keep posted and
stick to your business until something
better offers. There are thousands Of

Don't blame anybody or hate ANYBODY
just because you are poor, but lookout
for chance to lift yourself above the
power of any man or corporation to

really wants a job of work can always
get 1t by making one for himself.

A Girl Of Honolulu.

How beautiful she was How Wild
Pure as water plant, this child,
This one wild child of nature here
Grown tall in shadows. And how near
To God, where no man stood between
Her eve and scenes no man hath SEEN
Stop still, my friend, and do not stir,
Shut close your page and think of her.
The birds sang sweeter for her face;
Her lifted eyes were like grace;
The rippled rivers of her hair
That ran in wondrous waves somehow
Flowed down divided by her brow,
And mantled her within its care.
a perfume and an incense lay
Before her, as an incense sweet
Before blithe mowers of sweet hay
In early morn. Her certain feet
Embarked on no uncertain way.
Come think how perfect before men;
How sweet as sweet magnolia bloom,
Embalmed in dews of morning when
New sunlight leaps from midnight gloom,
Enthralled to kiss, and first to kiss,
Yea, she was tempting like to thisl
She was as the Madonna to
The tawny, dreamful, faithful few
Who touched her hand and knew her soul
She drew them, drew them as the pole
Points all things to herself. She drew
Souls upward as the moon of spring,
High wheeling, vast, and shining full,
Half clad in clouds and white as wool,
Draws all the strong seas following.
Joaquin dfi}er.
