ALGER'S AMBITION.

A gentleman closely connected with
Gen. Alger, and who was one Of those
in charge of his headquarters at Chicago
during the national convention, was in
st. Paul last week. Discussing Harri-
sons cabinet, he said:
"Gen. Alger was given his choice be-
tween the navy and war departments
by Gen. Harrison, but believe that he
will accept neither. For him to do so
would be to destroy forever whatever
chances he may now have for gaining
the presidency. 1 have good many
reasons for thinking and saying that
Gen. Alger will be candidate for
president in 1892, and much stronger
one than he was In 1888. / know that
Gen. Harrison would give him hearty
support, for they are close personal
friends, and Harrison believes in single
terms.D

There is 4 disposition on the part of
some senators to kill bills by ridicule.
A bill passed during the past week re-

age of consent to sixteen years. A
senator moved to amend by making it
fifty years.
Senator Durant's thoughts are ever

When they hear the final spell
And have to roast in -

sShall the coming woman proposes"
Said to a gentle maiden,
AS offered her white rose
With its fragrance heavy laden.
Flushes mounted to her fair brow,
AS my eyes she still did shun.
'sSome of them might not know quite how,
Till they first had seen it DONE"
I proposed to that coy maiden
On my knees right then and there,
As she sat there in the shade and
Tossed her locks of sunny hair.
And she answered to my pleading,
'sYou have taught me all You cant
Shall go, at once proceeding
To propose to the next manf"
To her then hestened 10 say,
'sNoW that have you, my Rose,

neighboring state some one has intro
duced bill to regulate the milking of
COWS. Most of these bodies in the West

possessed with the paternal idea of
government. The protective theories
and the demands for sumptuary legiS-

direction. There are GIBBS and flows in
the popular mind. Some hundreds of
