Mccoy Makes a March.

The style seems to be, nova days, to
get married on the quiet and keep the
marriage a secret, for short or a longer
period. For a long time Mr.. W. w.
Mccoy and Miss Alice Lawrence have
been keeping company; and, Dame Ru-
NOR had settled it, that they were to be
married, and the old lady was right.
Mr.. Mccoy had been out OF the city for
some time, but he returned on May Is
and Thursday May Goth he and his fair
affianced went over to West St. Paul and
were quietly made man and wife by
Elder Hackett of the M. E. church.
They had concluded to keep the fact
a secret, and did SO until last Sunday
when they let the cat out of the bag.
The BRIDES mother was terribly angry
at first, but soon concluded that the
wisest plan would be to accept the situa-
ton, SO she said. s'bless you my chill
dren," and the young couple are now
making their home with her. May they
live long and prosper. are the wishes of

Can't. Sc. Snfd er the Man

The Fourth Congressional District
Committee met in Merchants Hotel last
Monday and fixed the date for holding
the convention to nominate successor
to Hon. S. P. Snider. The convention
will be held at Anoka, Tuesday Sep. q.
It is generally understood that the gall
liant Captain will succeed himself which
is as it should be, as he he has faithfully
served his constituents since he took his
seat in Congress, and there will be little
if any opposition to his denomination
The Democrats may make it q little
lively when election time comes, but
they will have to put on their hustling
clothes for he has made more friends
than enemies since his election, by 3
majority that made ones head swim to
contemplate, two years ago. Whatever
may be the obstacles in the way there is
an almost certainty that Capt. Snider
will be the next representative in Con-
gress from the Fourth Minnesota Dis
trict.

Bismarck ON Nihilism.

In IN interview with the correspond
emit OF the London Daily Telegraph,
Prince Bismarck declared that no con-
cession to the Nihilists was possible.
Generalization had led to much dissatis-
faction and disappointment in Germany,
but in Russia it had led to disaffec tion
and conspiracy. There we're ten times
as many people educated for the higher
walks as there were places to fill. Fur
ther education was making pedantic
theorists and Missionaries, unfit for con-
stitutional government. Referring to
the labor question, the Prince ridiculed
the idea that workmen would ever be
contented, because, he said, the rich
are never contented. He spoke strong
ly against any dictation as to the hours
of labor and against the usurping of the
rightful authority of parents over their
children. He-said that Chancellor Won
Caprivi was a perfect gentleman. He
praised Emperor William and said he
was hopeful for the future.

The appointment Made.

For several weeks there has been an
appointment hanging in the balance in
the Office of Register of Deeds of Ram
sey county. Register Bell said he would
appoint Colored man to the position
and there were number of applicants
but, for some reason or another, no one
secured the place. Last Wednesday
Mr.. Will A. Robertson made an applica.
ton, and gave such evidence of his
qualifications to ill the position salts.
tactorly, that Mr.. Bell at once appointed
him. Mr.. Robertson is son of Mrs. l..
A. Robertson formerly Of st. Louis, bu,
at present matron of Wilberforce Uni.
versity. He has been resident of St.
Paul for a lumber of years and has held
some very good clerical positions. He
was appointed strictly on his merits
and there is no doubt Of his filling the

Balance Due
Signed:
Gordon Got the Gold.

For several days past the annual COM
petition of the marksmen of the Depart.
ment of Dakota was in progress. The
medals won by the successful COMPETE
tors were presented at army headquar-
tiers Tuesday morning by Gen. ~Ruger.
The names of the successful rihemen
were called by Maj. Miles and, as bis
name was called, the prize-winner
stepped forward from the ranks, and
Capt. Woodruff handed to Gen. Ruger
the medal, which that officer pinned
upon the marksman's coat. There were
ten medals, one of solid gold, bearing
the winners name inscribed within
wreath on it's face and surmounted by
swivel and gold bar; three were of
silver and the remaining six of bronze,
all Of similar pattern to the gold medal.
The winner of the gold medal, was Pri-
vate John Gordon, Com pany B, Twenty
fifth Infantry, located at Fort Shaw,
Mont. He is the first Colored soldier to
head department rifle team, and his
success Is regarded with feelings of the
utmost satisfaction by his officers and
comrades, especially so as his best
scores were made on skirmish run, the
most difficult of all the competitions.
The Medals wers received direct from
the government mint, and were engraved
by St. Paul firm with the names of tbe
recipients, There were ten Colore d

"Queen of Elocutionist'' added new

TOBACCO RAISING.
Still Great Industry in Cuba. But C.
Quoted on n Decreasing Scale.

Still Great Industry in Cuba. But Con-
Quoted on n Decreasing Scale.
Tobacco raising is yet one of the
chief sources of wealth in Cuba, said
Senor Don Nicholas Garrido, a rich land
owner and planter of the great Spanish
colony, while in this city couple of
days ago. 'It is not carried on upon as
great scale as it used to be, however,
For long time it was supposed that
the celebrated Vuelta Abaio region,
which is situated between the 22d and
Esd degrees of latitude, was the only
spot on earth where the very best grade
of tobacco could grow, but lately there
has been strong competition from diff
ferent parts of Spanish America, where
just as good tobacco as ours can be gath
cred, if properly planted and cared for.
The first condition that has to be full
filed is that of proper climate. Tobacco
thriyes best in the temperate climes, for
its period of vegetation lasts only three
months, and requires an average tenn
perature of rs degrees during the devel-
opment of the plant. The Havana
species, which is so appreciated through
out the world, is so delicate that it per-
ishes whenever the temperature falls
below sixty degrees, which, however,
happens very rarely in Cuba. Tobacco
does not require much water, two or
three showers being quite sufficient for
its growth in Cuba; but, then, dew in
our climate is quite copious, and the
moisture is received by the leaves and
runs along them to the upper ring of
roots. Be it on account of the soil or
climate conditions, our tobacco is en-
tirely different from that of North Caro-
lima, Virginia and Kentucky; butt see
that much of the weed sold here under
the name of Havana is far from being
genuine, and in many instances the to-
bacco is grown in this country or South
America. IN. Y, Star.

wad of absorbent cotton and piece of
string. Wrap the cotton around the out
side of the bowl and tie it with string.
Take piece of bulb undertaking and
draw it over the stem, so that you can
place the tube in your mouth and blow
through the pipe. Next weigh out the
amount of magnesia you require for your
fash, then place it in the bowl of the
pipe. Take some alcohol and satur-
ate the absorbent cotton. When you

ConsoIing for the MARRIED..

If all husbands throughout England
were to be carried tomorrow into per-
manent exile, the incomes Of their wives
remaining undiminished, the wives
would still on the whole regret their
removal, and would be in the aggregate
not more but less happy than at present.
And if this is so, it means that more
married women in England to-day are
glad to be married than sorry. Ofcourse
there are many unhappy marriages, and
no doubt some which seem to the out
slider to be happy enough are in truth
not so. On the other hand, good many
marriages which may seem to the on
locker intolerable are not really intoler-
able at all to those concerned. Fort,
