THE LAUGH ON THEM.

W. j. Cole, one of the enumerators,
had a good laugh on Detective Mason
the other day at the Windsor. They
were talking Of enumeration generally,
and Cole said:
Il wonder if births on steamboats,
within the city limits are counted"
Certainly they are" said Mason !;
that is, if the boats are at the leyee
here"
"Well, 1 doubt it," returned Cole.
Mason insisted, and finally a bet was
made. Cole thought the wager should
be reduced TO writing, SO he wrote the
following:
W. J. Cole bets j. Fl. Mason that the berths
on board of steamer do not count in the
census.
Mason read it over, noticed nothing
wrong, and it was agreed to. Then
''Dick" German was called in to decide
the bet. He read it over and exclaimed:
''D'you mean the sleeping berths?'
Mason locked at the paper, and then.
without a word, led the way to the
thirst parlorS.

A meeting of the Minnesota alumni
Of Union college was held at the Ryan
last night. Prof. Wells represented the
faculty of the college, and gave full
and entertaining talk upon the activities
Of the college. President Harrison E.
Webster, LII. D.. who has been at the
head for the last two years. has done
much in increasing the usefulness of
the institution. The entering classes are
nearly three times as large as
they were before his assuming
charge of affairs. The faculty
and trustees are united in their support
of his energetic policy. Large and en-
thuSiastic alumni meetings have been
held in Chicago, New York and other of
the large cities. The students are great
champions of their president. He is a
man OF much personal magnetism, and
has shown rare tact IN regaining to the
support of the college many of the
alumni who were supposed to have been
eStr9nged by the past unfortunate quar-
rels. These, as the professor said, are
buried out of sight and it is the progress
sIve Union university that he repre-
sents. Prof. Wells is one of the party
of eXcursionists who have been to Alas
ka, and are now stopping at the Ryan.
He Is taking advantage of his trip in the
West to meet the alumni of Union. He
leaves the party to go to Omaha to be

Personal SKETCHES.

Some time ago, it was very commonly
said that Gov. Merriam could not make
speech. 1t was true, too, but his eX-
cellency has shown that experience
means everything. His inability in
the beginning of his official career to
speak easily was largely the result of
species of stage fright, and now that
this has worn off, the governor is
rapidly becoming a polished orator.
Take last night, for instance, when
even his best friends were struck by
the ease and fluency with which he
spoke at the Grand opera house. When
The appeared OH the stage. his equa-
unity was disturbed somewhat, and the
audience could not repreSS its smiles
when voice from the gallery piped
out:
Hello, Billr'
But in halt-minute it was over, and
the orator made his pleasant and bright
talk.
Eyes. this is an off year in politics"
said Republican attorney yesterday,
land for that reason l am going to be
one of the independents
"What do you mean?" inquired a
party friend.
u mean Pm not going to vote a
straight ticket by any means. For in
stance, Pm going to vote for Dick
O'COnnor for clerk of the court"
Great heavensn exclaimed the
other, Isn't Freany good enough for
you?"
''As man. yes. But in this case l
back experience against the field. Dick
O'Connor has run his office in good
style. and don't see any reason for a
change, Freaney is good man, and 1
like him well. but popular man does
not always make the best officer, by
large majority. 1t is very important
matter, and especially to us lawyers, to
have that office managed in the right
way, and | don't propose to risk q
change with new men. l know many
people who will shout for Freaney and
vote for O'CunnOr."
