AS the Grand Army men stand before
it, it seems to call up old time reminis-

forgotten, in relating thrilling episodes
of bivouac and field. There are also
battle scenes by Trego, and magnifi-
cent painting, in the Walker collection,

No. 80, ''Inspiration," by Edwin 81.
Blashfield, is an ideal picture, full of
poetic sentiment and idealism. The
title, and the fact that the wife of the
artist serves as the model in the picture,
is suggestive of poets as well as
painters domestic attachment, that
perhaps is the central figure of his in
spirational ideals. The painting as
work of art is of high merit. An ex-
quisite blending of color. carefulness
of detail, and harmony of action char
acterizes the whole. Another picture
in which his wife serves as the model is
found in Room E. 1t is No. 233, 1.-The

interior, with a girl sitting in chair

John S. n. Schmidt has begun suit

senting that Galesburg was a
1ourishing village of 500 inhabi-
tantS, that the lots traded
for were worth s1.5OO and that there
were no membranes against them,
Schmidt says he finds that Galesburg
has never had more than eight inhab,

free from membranes, and that in
stead of being:worthSl,5 500 they are.of no
value to speak of, and he therefore asks

RAILWAY EMPLOYEES CTTT
Tie Members Do Not Pull To-
gether in Harmony.

The membership of the Railway En-
ployes' club does not appear to grow as
rapidly as the prime movers i'm the
scheme wish, if the attendance at the
meeting held at the Window hall last
evening was any criterion. Some of the
railroad men do not believe that the
club is all independent organization. as If
pretendS to be, and for that reason will
not join. Some of the men who were
present last evening lefi before the
meeting was over, and the secretary. H.
c. Cooper, created something of a mild
sensation by resigning. Ed. Toohev
was elected to fill the vacancy. Mr.
Thomas, of the st. Louis road, was the
first speaker. He thought that all rail-
road men should join the club and stand
together, and characterized anv man
who would not as fraud. 1t was the
duty of every man employed by rail-
road to work for the corporations in
terest in every way he could, even to aid
in putting men into the legislature who
would adopt laws that were favorable
to the railroads, and enable them to
make enough money to pay their en-
plOyes' good wages.

1t Is Different Now,

The old Republican county committee
met yesterday forenoon and appointed
inspectors for each primary to be held
Saturday night, for the purpose of
electing delegates to the county con-
vention, which elects delegates to the
state convention. The inspectors were
generally selected from the delegates
who were elected to the last county con-
vention. 1t seems little queer that
this same county committee should a
few weeks ago entirely ignore the
'Whiteman" election law and instruct
their heelers to pay no attention to it.
when the primaries were held which
elected delegates to the county conven-
ton which renominated the members
of the court house ring.>and then come
out now and say that it is the best law
ever passed and that unless it is fol-
lowed in every instance the Scheffer
men will carry the county.

THE SCHEFFER BOOM.
Queer Antics of the Antis-The
Democratic Scare

Democratic Scare.
The Union League, the crack silk
stocking and kid-glove organization of
the Republicans of Minneapolis, put
itself in a singular position ON Wednes-
day night. 1t was that of an organiz-
alton, supposed to be for the party and
for no individual. putting itself on
record as for one Republican candidate
as against another. There was loud
howl of indignation among many of the
faithful Republican brethren upon
learning of it. Many, if not a majority
of the Republican voters of Hennepin
county, favor the candidacy of Albert
Scheffer, and to them it was truly re-
freShing spectacle to see the wealthy
aristocratS of the party gathered in the
BruSSel-carpeted and lace-curtained ele-
gance of the Union league to devise
ways and means to defeat the will of
the majority. The only pretense which
veiled this unheard of proceeding was
that it was reported certain Democrats
would vote or attempt to vote at the
primaries Saturday night, and it was
therefore proposed to strictly infOrce
the provisions of the Whiteman law
AT the Republican primaries last Satur-
day night the Whiteman law was
lican thought of enforcing it. At the
primaries last night there was no sign
of theWhiteman law and no effort made
to carry out its provisions. But at
the primaries tomorrow night, it is the
sense of the Union League that the
Whiteman law should be rigidly en-
forced. 1t is little singular that the
beauties of the Whiteman law were so
apparent on Wednesday night, so alb
sent last night, and will be again, so
conspicuous tomorrow night!
At the Union league meeting the
bosses came out in force. 1t is not often
that Gen. Washburn, ex-Gov. Pillsbury
and Loren Fletcher deem it worth their
while to attend political meetings, but
this seemed to be an occasion where the
bosses were to be arrayed against the
people, and such occasions always draw
out the rich Republicans. Scheffer is
too much of a cOmmoner to meet their
views.
The great fear of Democrats carrying
the caucuseS On Saturday is unfOunded.
The Republican managers may prepare
themselves to believe that every Demo-
crat who turns out for that purpose will
support Scheffer if nominated, unless it
be those democrats who want to see
him nominated as the easiest
man for Gov. Wilson to beat.
The methods of the Scheffer
managers in Minneapolis are not very
deep and designing and not particu-
like cyclone. So far as can be learned
there is no Doodle being distributed,
though the headquarters have been
pretty well patronized at both the Mic
Ollet and st. James hotels. Mr.. Schef-
fer came over last night, but after a
short conference with G. d. Baker re-
turned to ST. Paul.

The experiment of having matron at

that the present matron, Mrs. Rice. has
Rnumber of times exceeded her author

interfering with matters outside of her
department. The officers in charge of
the station yesterday morning state
that she has openly intimated that they

that Mrs. Rice told the Hammond

with less Of art than tho inhabitants of
the country before them possessed. They
buried their dead, and left the magnif-
cent monuments over them which, to the
number of more than $500 in France and
more than 1 ,600 in Brittany, are now be-

the French government. Some Of these

Manual Training In Schools.

The extent to which manual exercises
may be introduced into public schools will
no doubt be governed by certain peculiar
limitations. To begin with, it is not ex-
pected that boys generally viii be able to
handle heavy tools until about Is years
old. Give them, therefore, exercises in
which the lighter means may be employed,
such as glue, the jackknife, etc. Again,
VIC are limited by the absolute impossi-
bility Of generally connecting with COM
mon schools work shops and special in
structors. Furthermore, courses OF study
already overcrowded. and the lack Of
specially prepared teachers. are Obstacles
which the average country school, at
least, cannot overcome. Industrial draw
ing is largely taught throughout tho
country. We would urge that exercises
connected with it be arranged for an out
growth Of constructed objects. This is
not only practicable, but applicable to all
common schools.
Depend upon willing parents, brothers
and sisters for whatever home instruction
is necessary in the manual execution Of
tho thought, and we shall at least have
wisely directed the natural tendency Of
children to make things, and have aroused
an interest which will assist materially in
the establishment of special manual train
Ing schools whenever they become practi-
