This one hundred million of dollars lying

WHAT TO READ.

An intelligent man knows what sort of read.
ing is good for him better than even a good
critic can tell him, just as a wise man knows
what agrees with him better than his doctor.
The use of reading is to tighten the load of
life, and to open vistas of thought which
otherwise would be closed to u.s. Nobody
who has any sense wants to go to school
again and "stodge" himself with mere infor-
nation. There are, of course, persons who
yearn to learn the names of the kings of
Judah in their proper ORDER and to hear how
backing is made; but they are no better for
it when they have acquired the knowledge,
even if las often happens) they are not seized
with distressing desire to impart it to our
fellow creatures. 1t has been whispered to
me. by persons living in Intellectual circles
that the effect of even "the higher culture"
is not necessarily exhilaratng; it may i'm
prove the mind without improving the man,
and as companion, in fact, often leaves him
duller than it found him, because he has been
educated beyond his wits. The mind of man
is very curious, and cannot be catered for
without ones inquirng into its character.
What makes me laugh in my sleeve is to see
the fury into which preachers and teachers
and lecturers all lash themselves because nine
readers out of ten will persist in taking fiction
out of the lending Libraries instead of i'm.
applicable to most of them, though some, /
see, attribute it to original sin.-[James Payn,
in The Independent.

abundant, many of them the gifts of famous
friends. The library is in Pompeian red, with
stained glass; fine collection of books and
pictures; one picture especially weird and
beautiful, night scene, by the French artist,
Millet. Miss Mulock seemed, in her home, to

happiness she has loved to portray in her
books. No wonder the words are carved over

What They Say.

Bushnell Il BuShnelI-There has been
a very active demand for inside prop
erty. SO far as we can Judge, the mar
l1et is steadily improving.
Davis IL BroWn-There is no special
change. The market continues steady
and firm. with constant Improvement.
George ii. HazZard-lt looks to me as
if we were going 10 have good sum-
mer'S business.
j. FairchiId Il Co.-The inquiries for
property continue to increase, and prices
are strong. The call for property has
been largely for small lots. 1t is diff
cult to tell what is in the future, but
everything promises an increase of bust
ness.
Weatherby & Hay-We have been
trying lately to buy mortgages, but they
ale getting scarce. Real estate trans
actions are not large, but steady.
Mcguire Bros.-There have been a
good many inquiries this week and they
are increasing. The demand is mostly
for property for improvement. We
look for much better business little
later. The inquiries are very free in
deed in the vicinity of Manchester and
we have made several sales in that To-
cality ut prices ranging from 5000 to
$1,000.
Clark & Bryant-It is probable that
the market this year will show a good
deal OF activity. 1t is not, in our opin-
ION. likely that the business will be as
large as that of 1887. We expect, though,
a good, fair, healthy trade, and one that
will be satisfactory. We have sold some
property at the Union stock yards. The
amount of building done this year will
be very large.
Stone IL Morton-Our business lately
has been very active, and we have had
a goodly number OF sales. The outlook
is very good indeed, and improving
daily. The Eastern parties that have
been out here looking over property
have come to very favorable conclu-
SONS.
Bristol & Loomis-There is an i'm
provement in the market.
A. b. Wilgus &Co.-Everything looks
favorable, and we are all making some
sales all along.
H. S. Fairchild & Co.-The only
change we can mention this week in
the real estate market is that the mar
ket is gradually improving all aronnd.
Beaumont u Cathcart-We find a
good market for cheap business prop
erty. We sold this week twenty-five
feet on Third street, between Wacouta

New York Telegram.
1t is now reported on good authority
from London that the actual aim Of Jay
Gould in his visit to Europe has been
to engage the Rothschilds, with their
enormous wealth, in a greedy COM
bination to form a trust in all the
precious mineral products of the world.
The story goes that the Rothschilds,
who have grown tired Of banking for
impecunious kings and dukes, lent a
willing ear to Gould's specious outline
of the plan. The willy American expert
on grab made it clear that with several
hundred millions as guarantee fund,
diamonds, gold, silver and precious
metals could be successfully cor
nered, and gigantic scheme of profit
handled easily by two or three daring
nabobS.
If this report should be verified the
Standard Oil company will be forced to
hide its diminished head and stink to
the rear. We may as well appoint
Gould, Rothschild q Co. receivers for
the globe and retire permanently from
business.

Mr. Lowering last week sold seventeen
lots on Prior avenue, formerly West

rate of $500 per lot. Prior avenue is the
west boundary of Midway Heights and
the east boundary of the Minnesota
Transfer. The property all along
through this part of st. Paul is rapidly
Increasing in value, owing largely to the
immense inquiry that is developing for
property in that locality. There is a
vast amount of business being done all
around the Transfer, and the railroad IA

ministering angel from heaven,
Unacquainted with earth's ups and downs,
Moved into church for all Office
And was pleased with its cushions and
gowns.
She had a large stock of Gods blessings
To bestow on the needy and poor;
So she stood there and waited and waited
For the needy to enter the door.
But all were adorned in rich raiment
And looked like people well fed.
And l think she'd have done as good business
In graveyard along with the dead.
So she ventured to ask grave deacon
Whether earth had no needy and poor;
And he answered in deep bass-profundo,
Yes, you'll find them outside of our door.
