o.
Sheol was aStir about a Seventh
street entertainment yesterday. Among
the list of attractions at that resort there
is Prof. Hampt0n's educated goose,
and dog and monkey circus. There is
also down on the programme the ilclI-
ards Brothers, comedians. Now, the
goose's education consists in picking
out card, from one tn nine), the num-
Der to be selected by some one in the
audience. A little crumb or kernel of
corn behind tie card chosen will, of
course, cause the goose TO drop its bill
quickly upon the numher. 1t Is
not authenticated that the
professor keeps the gooSeS
about half-StarVed in order to
te have it work quickly and well.
Yesterday one OF The Richards Bros,
just before the show began, fed the
goose Oh cake until its craw WAS thor
Oughly crammed. When il came time
for the goose to do its ''turn" il wouldn't
work, ana the erStWhile tempting NOR
sells had lost their ch rm. The pr0prie-
tor lahurtd III vain; the goose merely
looked and waddled about. The key to
its education was useless. The pro-
prietnr was mad. and SO was the man
ageupnt, but the other performers who
were on enjoyed the affair.
Lee Wing. the erStwhile West Sew
enth street laundryman. has discarded
the blouse, haggy brerch and pigtail
OF his fathers, consigned them all To
everlasting oblivion, and appeared yes
terday attirpd a. dead game sport"
in narrow trimmed skimming-dish
derby hat. three-inch collar, gay tie and
etcett raS. In addition to these un-
wOntrd maneuvers, Lee purchased Il
ticket for San Francisco over the North
ern Pacific. and will leave for that point
to-day. i he explanation of Mr.. Win@'S
sudden change uI costume amt location
is that he is about to be married. Pre-
vious to his coming to st. Paul,
which he did nv9 years ago,

his residence in ST.. Paul. and having
determined TO marry. appointed Wing
Using Ali. the Chinese capitalist who
was recently in st. Pau, to hunt up
the dark-Skinned damsel on his return
to Frisco, and propose 10 hera> proX {.
The reply, which YVES of a favorable
character, was received a couple of
weeks ago, IN the marriage will o"cur
as soon as Wing can cover the distance
intervening between himself and his
dulcinea. In reply to the question 10y

dence, Wing stated that he should EN-
deavOr TO induce the future Mrs. Wing

had enough money to support them
