Giving some other cause.
But since the mighty Samson's days
A being clad in frocks-
Was never known to fail when once
She takes shears TO men S locks.
One day feminine NJ. D.,
One Ripley, known to fame,
Rebelled against the tyrant Doc
sent the forbidden name.
There was a tussle loud and long,
But Ripley gained the day.,
And filed her little cause OF death
in her peculiar way.
Another peoples paper" has Deen
sprung upon the defenseless and now
covering public. 1t is called the

Yesterday morning when the prison
ers were being arraigned before HIS
Honor, Judge Hicks" the Judge to0k
occasion to ask the prisoners now olu
they were. Now BuSSe, the German
who shot Bork. was of the number.
Busse had shown thorough knoWl-
edge of English, speaking it flu
entity and comprehending all that
was said to him. The only
circumstance that would indicate that
he was not perfectly versatile with the
language was when Clerk Doughelty
ratified off the Indictment in the accept
ed mode of the court. The prisoner did
not seem to catch the full purport OF
the proceedings and asked for time
in which To plead, making the
request in English. This, however,
gave His Honor an opportunity for air
lCran f thn (narmnn lam
guage. SO when he came to make the
Interrogation, "How old are your. he
clothed it in smooth and gliding Bis
marckish voice of justice:
''Wie alt sin sic, Herr BusSe?"
The prisoner stared a moment and
then replied abruptly in good round

When Daniel Dougherty remarked
that the day of oratOry is over an eX-
preston of lncredulity was noticed on
the faces of many at ArmOry hall Fri
day evening. Mr.. Dougherty did not
seem to be aware that Frank +. Davis
and William Hennery EuStis are still
aliye-possibly he never heard of them.
The evening journal pays f1attering
tribute to Congressman Snider'S record
at the national capital. The only thing
the Fourth district congressman seems
to have done, is the filling of the offices
coming under his jurisdiction. That
was evidently what he went to congress
for. to look after the federal plums, and
we'll has he done that. If he could only
get Postmaster-General Wanamaker to
authorize some Minneapolis JeWeler to
keep the postOffice clock in repair, his
mission would be fulfilled.
p. Halifax Gibbons, the paragrapher's
friend, is really going to move to Chi

Times office.
Col. John T. West is used to newspa-
per men. and expects most of them to
have their ''gall with them" as well as
their lead pencil, but the publisher, OF
a weekly ST. Paul hotel paper rather
astonished him the other day. The
editor in question came to this section
last fall when the walking was good.
and proceeded to take charge OF the
various hosueIries in the Twin Cities.
He didn't exactly run them, but he
rather presumed to speak for them

When Col. West got this notification to
be present at his own house, and at
tend meeting he supposed he was get
ting up himself. he nearly tainted. AS
q result, a circular properly signed and
authorized by the committee has been
sent out, and the previous newspaper
publisher will probably hold his meet
ing by himself in the lavatory.
Hugh Ross, the blonde Apollo who
sugar-coats pills and bites holes i'll
sponges at Peter Marks drug store,
goes to Olympia, Wash, in about
week, where he will embark in the
business for himself. Some one has
told him that is section of the country
where there is not a drug store in the
MARKET and he will strike out in that
direction at his earliest possible con-
Venience.
Winn Bracket. the latest essayist
upon public morals, wants the sale of
newspapers suppressed on the streets,
or at least restricted. He thinks the
newsbOvs make too much noise, and dis
turb the graveyard stiffness and death
like quietude which he seems to think
is more becoming to a big city than
hustle and unSeemly activity. He wants

Mayor Babb was fifty-siX years old
Yesterday. 1t is hoped that he will live
fifty-siX years more, but he should never
have been mayor of Minneapolis.
Assistant County Attorney Nye would
do we'll to double up with the immortal
William, of comic fame. The latter
could perpetrate the jokes and the for

Judge Hooker's pleasant face is the
one ray of sunlight that penetrates irto
