wife at Bedford. N. H., in 1873, and
soon afterwards came to st. Paul. At
the time of her marriage Mrs. Barteau
owned property valued at $4,000. In
1884 Mrs. Barteau's health failed, and
she went to Europe, where she re-
mained until last spring. At the time
of her departure she left about Sc, 600
worth of property in the care of her
husband Upon her return to this cOun-
try last spring she brought suit against
MIR. Barteau, Josiah Fairchild and Mary
Bailey to secure an accounting and
the recovery of her property. She
charged that the defendants in
the case had conspired together and
fraudulently transferred her property
to Mary Bailey. The plaintiffs evil
dence in the case just closed shows that
soon after Mrs. Barteau went to Europe
she made Josiah Fairchild her attorney,
in fact. in this country. and placed her
property in his care. This she did upon
the Recommendation of Mr.. Barteau.
No sooner had Mr.. Fairchlld been made
her attorney in fact than he began to
transfer his clients property Mary
Bailey. The plaintiff claims that the
Bailey woman paid nothing for the
property-that it was transferred to her
without consideration. In September,
1885, while Mrs. Barteau was in Italy,
her husband begun suit for divorce on
the ground Of deSertiOn. He claimed

PIERRE, Oak, Oct. 12.-The sena-

ing their forces together. 1t is reason
ably certain that Pettigrew will capture
one of the plumS, as he has marShaled
his strength and seems to have all of his
foes on the run. Of the other three,
Moody, from the present outlook, will
knock the persimmOns. He lost follow
ing in the Black Hills by the defeat of
several of his men in the late election.
Otherwise he had the thing sure. Edger-
ton is lying quiet, not many of his
boomers having arrived and not having
quarters established. But he, like the
others, seems certain of election. What
is troubling many is to know how wide
a sWath Alonzo Wardell, the Farmers
alliance candidate, will cut. LOuckS
and his granger associates are here in
force and striking hard for their man.
but no one can tell how they will stack
when the legislature cOnveneS. War
dell may have surprise in store, but
now it appears that Pettigrew and
Moody are the leading candidates. Only
about twenty Legislators are present,
but the balance are expected in to-

In modern times money has become

When the great moneyed centers of
Europe and America are abundantly
supplied with loanabe funds business
may be dull, but it does not languish.
At the present time there is an unusual
plethora of capital in Europe. and es-
pecially in England. The certainty
that peace is assure d, at least for the

Of large government loans. These
loans for warlike purposes in years past
have absorbed no small portion of the

capitalists have TO look for other out

Where Chocolate Comes From.

Chocolate, according to the New
York Sun. is made from the seeds OF
the Theobroma Cocoa tree. which is
found only in tropical climates, and
bears a fruit somewhat like n cucum-
Der in shape, inside which are the
brownish seeds or beans, which form
the cocoa beans OF commerce. The
principal constituent OF these beans il
a soft, solid oil called cocoa butter,
and their attractive principle is thco-
bromine, analogous to the caffeine in
coffee. There is but very little pure
chocolate in the market, owing TO the
great medical value OF the cocoa butter
or oil. which is expressed in the grind
ing, and cheaper. less nutritious oil
supplied. One of the best ways TO buy
cocoa or chocolate, it is said, is to pur-
chase what are called cocoa nibs,"
which are the beans crushed in frag-
ments, but not ground. for the ground
chocolate is frequently adulterated
with roasted hazel nuts or almonds,
ricemeal, oatmeal and other ingredi-
ents.

first burying the fruit until the pulp is
decayed and only the beans are left.
The beans are roasted and the shells
removed. The chocolate is then ground
between stones. the friction heat OF the
grinding melting it so that it is soft
molten mass as il drips from the stones
and is poured into moulds. The melted
chocolate is pressed in cloth until all
the oil is expelled; the sediment is
ground very slowly to prevent remelt-
ing it. and the powder bolted like -four

called cocoa, which makes n lighter.
less nourishing, but more easily digest
ed beverage than chocolate.
In buying cocoa il is not advisable to
select any OF the sweetened prepara-
rations; because, as they are sold by
weight, the more sugar contained the
less cocoa in the mixture; and rs sugar
is the cheapest ingredient and can be
added afterward equally as well, it in
creases the cost OF the drink to pay
the same price for sugar. A peculiar
and very delicious chocolate is i'm.

Germany and England.

The late visit OF the Emperor of Ger
many to England has suggested ar,i-
Giles in the official and semi-ofiicial
journals of the German Empire as to
what good thing an alliance offensive
and defensive would be between these
two great natious. They say England
is invincible on the sea and Germany
two and they would make perfect
whole. Though they could not conquer
the world, they could utterly destroy
any nation which might make an at
tack upon them. This is the general
outline of the views Of the German
politicians and German statesmen.
The English people do not covet this
alliance, because they really do not
need 1t. Germany needs it the most,
because she fears coalition of France
and Russia against herself, and Bis
marck is preparing TO make everything
rs strong as he can Whenever he has
the opportunity. Salisbury may in
cline to this alliance, but Gladstone and
his friends are utterly against it, as
they think the less England complexities
herself with continental ties the better
for their country and their people.
But history at times repeats itself;
and as France alone at one time was
able TO meet successfully the vast naval
power Of England and the force of the
Germanic and Austrian armies, so she
might do again If she were attacked
and invaded without cause and her
whole population were aroused as in
1892.
OF course such an event requires a
mighty military leader, and people
think with reason that France can pro-
duce but one Napoleon. Military com
manders OF the present day in all coun-
tries seem commonplace; and perhaps
this Is well for the peace OF the world,
as the great military monarchies. on
account OF this dearth Of genius, hest
tate to provoke the uncertainties of
war.
The question is now being more or
less discussed in Europe. whether
great standing armies tend TO promote
peace. Some think they are a mentce
TO tranquility. while others hold that
they are potential conservators Of in
ternational peace. The question now
stands. a. it does among boys who are
inclined to have fight--'the one is
afraid and the other darsn't"
Some time the increase of arrna-
ments must stop, rs the taxes for the
maintenance OF the European armies
are devouring the substance Of the peo-
pie. -Milwaulkee Wisconsin.
