ABOUT PRESENTIMENTS.
All Experience Them, but They Are Not safe
Guides to Action.

All Experience Them, but They Are Not safe
Guides to Action.
In many voyages, writes J. NJ. Buck
ley in the Century, I have made it an
object to inquire of travellers and others
concerning presentiments, and have
found that they are very common, oc-
casionalIy fulfilled, generally not so and
that it is the tendancy which practically
all persons who have had one
presentiment come true to force
themselves into all, and to become
tyrants over those dependent upon them
or those travelling with them. It is to be
frankly admitted that, no matter how
vivid the presentiment might be, its non
fulfillment would not demonstrate that
there are no presentiments which must
have originated external to the mind of
the subject; but having been led by my
experience to induce many persons to
defy such feelings without q single
instance of reported evil results, it con-
firms strangely the hypothesis of their
subjective origin.
That presentiments are governed by no
moral principle in the character of the
subjects to which they are applied, the
persons who receive them, the occasions
on which they are given and their eff
fects, is apparent. The most immoral
have claimed to have them, Ihave COM
municated them to others, and they
have sometimes been fulfilled by events
from which the persons having them
have derived great personal advantages.
The best of men have PRESENT.
ments, but the great majority of
good people have not, and the greatest
calamities which have befallenImost per-
sons have come without any warning
whatsoever, except such as could be in
ferred from existing situations. Exper-
fence, foresight and guidance by ordin-
airy sagacity have been all that man
kind have had TO rely upon; and to be
governed only by these, combating or
disregarding presentlments, impressions
and powerful impulses for which no foun-
dation can be found in the nature of
things, is the only safe and stable rule.

Houston Quits and CLAIMS the Pennant.
Special to the Gazette.
Houston, TEX. Aug. 9.-The Hous-
ton base ball club returned to-day from
Fort Worth and has been Withdrawn from
the Texas league. They could not afford
TO keep up clubs and sit idly by and see
Dallas and Fort Worth play ball. This,
of course, means the disruption of the
Texas league and gives Houston the pen
nant. The Houston club viii not be dis
banded, but viii be strengthened up, and
for the remainder of the season win play
in this city and Galveston. These games
are expected to prove more profitable
than the regular league games, and a
schedule will soon be arranged between
these two South Texas cities.

The application of this little object les
son to the marvellous increase of private
fortunes in this country is very suggestive
when we remember that on the basis of
the legal rates of interest fortunes 'dou-
bic up'' once in eight years, and in the
ease of the great Crpsuses, who are boil
stored up by franchises, monopolieS,
trusts, stock waterings, etc., they dou-
BILE up much oftener.

The Girls are sly.
San Francisco Chronicle.

You can tell pretty well how a girl
feels towards you by the way she takes
your arm. If she doesn't care a cent
you know it by the Indifference of her
muscles. If she has great confidence IN
you the pressure tells it; and friendship
is as distinct from love in that mode of
expression as in words or looks. A
woman can take the arm of fellow she
likes very much with perfect comfort,
even if she is six feet high and he is four.
But even if the two are just matched, ,
she can make him feel disdain, contempt,
discomfort, dislike, anything she likes,
bv the way she does not hold on to him ,
l am told there is a great deal of diff
ference, too, between the way girl fits
her waist TO one man Is arm as compared
with another; but hardly believe it.

EXECUTED AT LAST.

For eight years this inconcevablc black
guard waged guerrilla warfare on the Gallo
invaders, robblng and numbering his own
counIrynen when there We're no foreigners TO
fight, but il 1906 he was captured, shot and
gibbeted, the officer who ordered his execu-
ton being, oddly enough, a gallant French
general, the father of the great master of tho
romantic school in Frauce-Victor HUGO.
There was III reality nothing more romantic
about Fra Diavolo than there was about our
Anglo-French highwayman, Claude Duval,
who was simply an absconding proligate
footman of the Duchess of Portsmouth but
in the early days of French romanticism
every incident and every parsonage that
could be perverted to picturesque use wers
eagerly seized upon by the novelists and play
wrights. They turned to Spain, and espe-
cialiy Italy; and, while Victor Hugo fabri-
Gated wholly urhistorical Lucrezia Borgia
as the hero of a tragedy, Alexander Dumas
manufactured an equally unveracious Fra
Dlavolo Gs the hero Of a novel
The ready witted Scribe at once availed
himself Of the latter amusing but delusive
creation, and with tne collaboration Of the
composer, Auber, he produced the always
charming comic opera of Fra Diavolo"
There can be but little doubt that, while the
lyric art benefited largely by the popularity
Of Auber's sparkling and harmonious num-
bers, au appreciahle amount of social harm
was done by the highly picturesque and his
trionic presentment given BY Scribe of the
sham FRA Diavolo" and his gang OF muir
derous desperadoes. Society began to be-
lieve in the existence OF Elarauder ele-
gautly and expensively avtired In plum
colored velvet, with gilt sugar loaf buttons

to ladies, and would bow over and reveren-
italy salute the taper fingers from which he
gently removed the diamond rings, and only

Inc ram Kept on raining steadriy, out
the enthusiasm. of the multitude massed
on the sidewalks and on the huge
stands opposite the presidential review
ing stand was in no way dampened or
diminished by it, and cheer after cheer
from thousands of threats sounded as
the the military and civic organizations
passed by.
AS the rear of the first division passed
the reviewing stand Mrs. Harrison, Mrs,
Mckee, Mrs. Saunders, Mr. Mckee and
those who accompanied the president to
the White House took the stand. The
appearance of Mrs. Harrison was the
signal for another great outburst of ap-
plause from the multitude.
Gen. Alger, numerous government of
ficials, representatives of foreign govern
ments and many other distinguished
persons had seats on the stand.
A few minutes after President Harri-
son had gone on the grand stand Secre-
tary FaIrchild called at the executive
mansion for ex President Cleveland and
conveyed him in his carriage to the sec
retary's residence, where Mrs. Cleve-
land and Mrs. Folsom were waiting to
receive them.

The investigation to be made of South
ern elections Is likely to be very thor
ough, as the resolution now before the
Senate, introduced by Mr.. Hoar, is 3
very broad one, covering the Louisiana
State election that Senator Chandler
has been hammering at so long, as well
as the recent killing of ]. M. Clayton in
Arkansas, a subject that Representative
Grosvenor tried to get the House COM
mittee on elections to investigate, as
well as all the Southern States where the
election laws are 50 framed as to deprive
citizens of their votes. The Democratic
Senators are making very determined
fight against the adoption of this resolu-
ton. They have even resorted to fill
clustering, which is something unusual
for the dIgnified Senate. The Republi
can caucus has decided that it shall pass.
The Mankato free press. [volume] (Mankato, Blue Earth County, Minn.) 1879-1924, 1889-03-08

WHEN the legislators get all the fun
they can out of the "retrenchment and
reform" matter we hope in the language
of Senator Kellar, they will "stop mon
keying" and take some sensible meas
ures for economy IN state expenditures.
The situation is not at all humorous
when it is seriously considered, and the
showings made by Treasurer Bobleter
are anything but pleasant. The legisla-
ture costs good deal of itself, but if it
does not choose to cut off any of it's own
perquisites, there are plenty of other di-
rections in which the state can be saved
reckless expenditures.
