CoURTsHIP INA STREET CAR.
A Peculiar Place for Popping the
Junction hpt II r.cxNQpo6

Question, but 1t Answered.
There was wedding OH the West side
last week, very happy wedding, too,
which differed from other weddings OF
its class only in the manner In
which it had been arranged, says the
Chicago Herald. Before the night the
ceremony took place the young man had
never seen the young woman except III
street car.
For good reasons she had never in
vited him to her house, and for equally
good reasons she had never accompanied
him to places of amusement. Their
courtship had been entirely carried on
in a street car. Both worked down.
town; both lived on the West side. OF
course they often rode down and back
together. Even 1.-The question had been
popped" in the corner of street car.
And though the young woman in mar
rying this young man was compelled to
disregard parental authority and though
she must give up all friendly relations
with her father and mother in cleaving
to the man she loves, she has the salts
factory consciousness that up to the
hour when she left her fathers roof to
assume responsibility for herself she
had in all things acted the part OF a
dutiful daughter. The few friends this
young couple have are confident that
naught but happiness will come OF this
match made in a street car.

A Word About One Of St.
Paul's Institutions for a
Higher Education.
st. Thomas Seminary, Beauti-
fully Situated Midway Be-
tween the Twin Cities,
Where Catholic Young Men
Are Given a Broad and
Liberal Education.
Established Hardly Three
Years Ago by Bishop Ire
land--Its Faculty.

st. Thomas seminary, which occupies
beautiful site near Merriam Park,
midway between st. Paul and Mime
apolis, was built by the Catholic diocese
of st. Paul. in the summer of 1886 and
was formally opened on the feast of the
Blessed Virgin, Sept. 8 of the same year.
The prime object of the right reverend
bishop, in the establishment of the SEM
mary. was the preparation of young
ton with the bishop before the erection
the good that would be ac-
complished by having such
an institution in the diocese. he said.
"VacOtiOns will be more numerous in
the diocese when there is home SEM
mary, the presence of which, in close
proximity to parents and sons, suggests
the dedication of ourself to the service
of the altar and facilitates the pious de-
sign. Nor is it easy to estimate fully
the advantages to religion in diocese
that the future priests be trained under
the eyes of their bishop, with view to
the special circumstances and needs of
the precise field of labor within the
limits of which they will have to spend
themselves for souls. AS school for
the young Levites of the diocese, the
Seminary of st. Paul will do unspeak-
ably good, and its opening day will be
the beginning of new era for the
church in the Northwest"
THE SUMMARY.
The building is divided into three
sections, the main house in the center,
with two large wings on each side. The
main building is 104x40 feet, and each
of the wings 1O7X30 feet, so that the
front, as shown in the accompanying
cut, is over 800 feet long. In the center
of the edifce will be noticed very
neatly designed tower, surmounted by
a cross, which rises to the height of
ninety feet from the ground. The
whole building is four stories high,
built of red brick, and occupies com
manding position, which renders it
conspicuous object for miles around.
The main building is entered by a high
flight of steps. On either side of the
entrance are the reception rooms and

"What do you mean, then?"

Mr.. Minot confined himself more than
ever to his duties in the bank. He pur-
posely avoided meeting Miss Ames any
where. No one could perceive that he
entertained any other feeling than ex-
allied respect for the young lady, who
had suitors by the score.
Five months passed away. Mr.. Ames
looked worried beyond measure. He
was pressed for ready money. Some OF
his ventures had been terribly disas-
trOus. He was straining every nerve

"Young man." said Mr.. Ames. IT am

'HOw much do you require to tide

"What matters it?" asked Mr.. Ames.

clerk.

the banker.

When Mr.. Ames had recovered from
the shock caused by Mr.. MinOt's dis
closure and the magnanimity he dis
played, the difficulties of the business
were thoroughly discussed. The bust
ness was badly tangled, but Mr.. Minot
thought he could straighten it out.
When he went home that afternoon
Miss Ames was surprised at the cheer
fulness of her father.
"My dear, Mr.. Minot will take tea
with us to-day"
"Indeedw The confusion of Miss
Ames was complete. "Mr. Minot is only
a clerk. You have not heretofore hon

"My dear, Mr.. Minot is my partner"
When tea was over and the trio had
adjourned to the parlor, Miss Ames said
in an aside:
Papa, may Mr.. Minot be my partner,
too?''
"Of course, my dear. He is one of

old financier laughed merrily at his own

A crowd of excited men gathered
around timid-looking individual in

once. Meanwhile the new bartender
appeared bored and lonely. At last he
raped loudly on the bar with a beer
glass to attract attention, and then
said to the timid man: ''Look
here, if you be runnin' for al
derman, as l reckon you be, why
don't you invite the gentlemen to have
something with yOu?' "Y-you are mis-
taken sir" responded the timid man;

THE POISONED KEY OF PADUA
A Curious Relic of the Life and
Times of the Tyrant Of That
Country.

n curious Relic OF the Life and
Times of the Tyrant Of That
Country.
Another delightful relic of the life
and times of the Tyrant of Padua is a
simple key--about the size of an ordi-
nary door-key, says the London Ref
cree. 1t was the key of the dukes
library in his private room. When he
wanted to get rid of any of his suite or
any person in his household that he had
bitter feeling against, he used to ring
his bell and ask for Mr.. John to be
sent to him fancy name of
course). When John entered the
duke would say: 80, John,
j wish you would go to the bookcase in
my private room and bring me the
'Dagonet Ballads Certainly, your
grace" Mr.. John would say, and away
he would trot with the key in his hand.
put the key in the lock of the bookcase
and turn it. But directly he turned it
out of the handle of the key shot long
poisoned needle, which stabbed the
hand of the holder and instantly
shot back again. John would
let go of the key and say:
"What the deuce was that?" He
would look at his hand and see only
small, dark blue spot. He would think
nothing of it, but all of sudden he
would begin to feel queer in his head.
Presently some one would come and find
him in a fit on the floor and the house
hold would be alarmed. ''Mr. John has
had a stroke or fit" the people would
say. A doctor would be sent for, but
his services would be of no avail. In
twenty-four hours Mr.. John would be
dead and everybody would think that
he had died through fit. There were
no bothering cOrOners' inquests to upset
the plans of clever fellows like the
Duke Francis in those days.
