WITH A HAND OF IRON.
The Twine Trust Tightening the Screws
on the Farmer.

MINNEAPoLIs, Mimi, March 13.-Slowly
but surely the binding twine trust is tight
ening its coils about the farmer. Already
the effect of it is seen here in Minneapolis,
where most of the twine in stock has been
bought up for the trust and now it is in a
Minneapolis warehouse and where the
price has already advanced materially. An
agent of the Dakota Farmers Alliance
which last year bought its twine direct
from the factories, was sent east to con-
tract for this years supply. He discovered
that the whole output had been bought up
by the trust Further he discovered that
the twine which last year could be bought
for cents per pound would cost %
cents this year. The only remaining play
on the part of farmers is to boycott the
trust and this they seem inclined to do.
Minneapolis twine dealers are in the same
fix as are the farmers. A young man
dressed as frontier farmer came in here
and bought up all the old twine in the
hands of the dealers. 1t was discovered
too late that he was the agent of the trust,
but the twine had been sold. The local
dealers are now kicking, while the twine-
100000 balls of it's packed away. If the
farmers get no twine it is likely TO have
bad effect upon the wheat crop. as that
cereal cannot be harvested in good con-
dition without the use of twine.

A SPlNSTER'S TRAGEDY.
The Cruel Awakening Which Awaited
Loving Old Maid.

Loving Old Maid.
[san Francisco ChronicIe.l
knew an old maid who had the last
twenty five years of her life embittered
by singular disappointment. She had
loved. never knew an old maid who
hadn't. He had gone away 70 a distant
land and sworn an oath that he would
never marry. Her father had kicked him
out of the house; that was really what had
separated them. She wasn't TO blame,
except that her love for him had kept
him until the old man caught up with
him, SO to speak. He swore he would al
ways be true to her, that he couldn't
drenm of marrying anybody else. and all
that sort of thing, you know. Just what
you've said yourself frequently. She was
not allowed to correspond with him until
she was old enough not to want to. She
cherished the dream and loved
him mainly because no other
man tried to dispel it. Years had passed,
and one day she got a letter with the
Hong Kong postmark, and the tears came
to her eyes as she looked at the dear old
handwriting. He was coming home
would arrive on a certain date. There
came flutter to her heart She opened
an old camphor- wood trunk he had sent
her from Japan years and years before,
and she took out bundle Of old, faded
letters. One by one she opened and read
them. Out of their worn pages fell the
petals of dead, dried roses, pale, colorless
violets, little bits of maiden-hair fern.
flowers that mig ght have been any thing to
eyes that had not seen them in their
bloom, but that were precious with asso-
Citations. Ah, how the years dropped
from her memory as she looked upon those
dim -shadowed messages from the past.
Gray haired, fond grandmother, heart
and soul wrapped in the love of your
dear pet daughters dear pet daugh-
ter. 60 up to that little room and
open that old, old covered box you keep
where no eyes but your own can find
it, and look once more upon the yellow
leaves whose fragrance bore the happy
love of youthful lover half century ago.
All, me! the roses are not hall so sweet to-
day; and the pale, dead msrigold that
falls in pieces at your feet has still @ beauty
far beyond them all.
But let us go back TO the old maid. She
waited with impatiencs for the day to
come when she should be united 10 her old
sweetheart. No cruel father with hob
nailed boot could come between her and
her love now. The day came, bat be did
not She thought he'd go TO O hotel. She
did not want TO be seen asking for him, so
she called the boy and asked him to copy
the names of the arrivals that day. She
was walking up and down the foor until
he came back. He returned and handed
her a card, which read:
''Mr. - end wife, five children and
three ChInege servants, from Hong Kong"

EVAOlNG THE LAW.

KANSAS CITY, March 13.-Although the
rate clerks and freight agents have been
notified that to cut a rate means two
years term in the penitentiary, the
manipulation of rates continues. But the
letter of the law is not violated. BY the
new evasion scheme the freight is carried
at the regular rate, properly billed through
by main lines, and great attention is paid
to every detail. Either prior to shipment
or directly afterward the agent purchases
at an exorbitant figure, certain goods from
the shipper, thus virtually giving him a
rebate on all goods shipped. An agent for
one of the eastern lines purchased several
hams last week for So each, of one of the
packing houses. The freight line he rep
resents carried several car loads of provis-
ions from the same packing house. Agents
claim that this is not violation of law
and efforts are being put forth, not only to
stop this practice, but to class it within
the jurisdiction of an amendment to the
interstate commerce law.

CHICAGO. March 1S-The annual meet
ing of the Illinois Central Railroad COM
pany was enlivened today by the presence
of f. B. Cooley, of Hartford, Conn. and
D. g. Howe. of Boston, who it is stated,
were sent west to investigate the scant div
idends recently paid by the Illinois Cen

Cooley made some insinuations against
the present management of the road and
finally offered resolution requiring a
copy of all propositions made to the board
of directors be forwarded TO each stock

WASHINGTON'S DEATH.
How the Father of His Country Was Doc
tored Into an Early Grave.

tOreu INTO an Larry OTaFcs
According to the Birmingham (Ala.) Age
Herald, gentleman Of that city possesses
an interesting relic Of his ancestor, DR.. f.
Y. Dick, who was a consulting physician at
George Washington's bedside during his
fatal Illness This is an official report stat
ing the nature Of the malady and the
method of treatment. The report states
that Washington was taken i'll with quinsy
Friday night after he had gone to bed. He
sent out for the neighborhood blood-letter,
and was bled perhaps more than once dur
ing the night. A physician was sent for
Saturday morning and arrived at eleven a.
IN. The patient was at once bled copiously
and given heavy doses Of calomel and tartar
emetic DR.. Dick and another consulting 9
physician arrived late in the afternoon, and
the patient was again bled copiously.
The doses of calomel were enlarged, the
tartar emetic was given more frequently,
assisted by enema. Toward night Wash
ington begged for mercy. Let me die IN
peace" he moaned, and the doctors finding
''no alleviation Of the alarming symptoms"
stopped the doses and contented them
selves with making the patient inhale win
egar vapors. The excellent constitution Of
the father Of his country resisted the
phlebotomy and physic til ten o'clock Sun
day night, when he died just twenty four
hours after the first attack.
There are some reasons, says the Spring
field Union, why we do not Sigh for the
good old times" of ninety years ago, and
the medical treatment of Washington 3
sore throat illustrates one Of these reasons.
