New York Times.l
A group of well-dressed and prosperous
looking business men sat about table in
famous downtown restaurant after luncheon
few days ago, chatting on all sorts of
topics and watching the smoke rings from
their cigars float up to the frescoed ceiling.
The conversation drifted after time into
tales of business success, and the eldest and
most imposing member of the party did his
part by telling this story:
81 owe my present prosperity" he began,
''to the fact that when was lanky youth
OF II my clothes did not fit me. To be more
explicit, was at that age in dreadfully
hard luck. My people were dead, 1 hadn't
friend that could turn to, I was able to
make but Sc week, and was half starved in
consequence, and my one suit "a Cheap
John rig) had shrunk until the lower edge
of my vest and the band of my trousers were
absolutely divorced.
Zone Sunday morning in December 1
was trudging along Sixth avenue, princi-
pally because my room was even more com
fortless than the streets, and 1 remember
how was railing and repining at every
thing and everybody. 1 was passionateiy
fond of music, and went into the first
church 1 came to, attracted solely, must
confess, by the thought OF the warmth and
harmony would find.
81 was too bashful then to sit still while
the rest of the congregation stood, so I got
up every time they did, and as my vest and
trousers were. as I told you before, not on
speaking terms, was forced to lean for
Il - 81 |, L.,
my zone of shirt front. As turned to go
out at the close of the service an old gentle
man behind me slipped a card into my
hand and said: I like to see reverence in q
young man. You look as if you were hay
ing a hard time of 1t. Come and see me to-
morrow, Imay help you.
81 went and got good berth in his en-
ploy, and from that 1 worked myself to
comparative wealth. Queer, isn't it?''

A bright little man sat bemoaning the fate
OF the wit that is tardy and sparkIes too late;
OF the keen repartee that is strictly ones own
But comes into view when occasion has flown.

So sluggish in movement. SO slow IN the race
That new topic renders them quite out of

An EifeI Tower in Ice,

The erection of the Eifel tower in Paris
has suggested a monument of similar design
on the banks of the Neva, at st. Petersburg.
The Russian tower, however, is. hardly so
solid and durable as the work of NJ. Eiffel,
since it is constructed wholly of ice. 1t is
upward OF $50 feet in height, and is COM
posed of IL, 900 blocks. There is a restau-
rant on the first platform. The transpar-
ent edifce has most ethereal appearance
at night time when it is illuminated by
electricity.

Strange the world about me lies,
Never yet familiar grown
Still disturbs me with surprise,
Haunts me like face half known.

Floored with gemlike plains and seas,
Shall never feel at home,
Never wholly be at ease?

Yet my host can ne'er espy,

And the floor of plains and seas,

A resolution providing for the SUBJ

In addition to the above there will

number of bills on MINOR topics. of
which the Northwestern Railroader has
no information, but which will surely
be forthcoming. in regard to fencing,
cattle guards. signals, crossings, ETC.,
etc. These bills are not commonly in
troduced with any Immediate view to
their becoming law, but for personal
ends, with which railroad companies by
impoverishing experience are already
only too familiar. But whatever the
objects of the introducerS may be, there
will he railroad bills enough in the COM

ture is likely to be able to devote to

In accordance with tlme-honered
custom, the Northern Pacific Express
company rendered the annual dinner to
its employees in St. Paul at the Hotel
Metropolitan last evening. Il most ex-
Qufsite repast had been prepared by the
chef of the hotel, and for two hours the
festive boards rang with merriment as
tha good things of the Christmas mar
kets and the wines of Sunny France
were discussed. After the tables had
been cleared and cigars passed around,
Supt. w. s. Hay, who presided, on be-
half of the express company rendered
all present q Happy New Year. and an
nounceC that, in answer to a general re-
quest. there would be no formal speeches,
as the boys felt that while they were
able to cope with the vast amount of
work in the office incidental to the holi-
day season, they were not equal to the
art of after-dinner speeehmaking. He
trusted, however, that ali had spent a
pleasant time, and looked forward to
many such happy reunions.
General Agent u. B. Newcomb, in a
graceful speech On behalf of those pres
ent. thanked the company, through Mr..
Hay, for the compliment shown them.
After an hour spent in eonvivial con-
versation, the party broke up to carry
with them pleasant rememberanees of

A STOLEN SPARKLER.
Costly Experience OF q New York
Drummer With the Elephant.

A New York man named August
Schlegle lost valuable solitaire dia-
mond ring last night. Schlegle says he
represents New York jewelry firm.
This is his first trip to ST. Paul, and last
night he started out with a chance
acquaintance to see the elephant. Be-
fore leaving the hotel he took from his
sample case the ring referred to, which
he says is worth $500. The stone is
blue diamond of perfect shape and
brilliance. Schlegle and his friend
made the rounds of the city, and when
the evening had merged into night the
New Yorker found himself with a very
large assortment of unclaSSiiied liquors
aboard, but minus the friend who had
assisted in the process of loading.
Schlegle did not discover until he
reached his room at the hotel that he
was short one solitaire diamond ring,
the property of his employers. The
festive drummer had deposited most of
his ready cash with the hotel clerk, or
the money would probably have gone
with the ring. He has not informed the
police of the affair, desiring. he says, to
avoid publicity of the facts. The matter

Spoil the Domestic Broth, So They
Are Divorced.


Mr. and Mrs. William w. Cook, who
will be remembered by great many
people in ST. Paul as residents OIL Sher-
man avenue, in this city, will hereafter
travel sep ,rdte paths. The bonds that
five years ago bound them together as
man and wife have been sundered by
Judge Colilns, of Chicago, Mrs. Cook
being granted an absolute divorce and
the custody of the child. w. w. Cook
Will be remembered as a former en-
ploye of the Powers Dry Goods COM
pany. and of DonaldS son in Minneapolis.
Mrs. Cook testified on the stand that
her husband has been in a semi-drunken
condition for four years, and had
abused her in vile manner. She vol
unteered the information that during
their five years of welded life Cook
had given her only SIT towards house
keeping expenses. Being asked to state
tne occasions upon which her husband
had abused her, Mrs. Cook stepped from
the stand and drew from her cloak
note book, from which she read an item
lied statement of her sufferingS, the
date and manner of the indignities to
which she had been subjected. Mrs.
Cook is at present conducting a fashion,
able boarding house on the North side

mitted by her lawyers were several let
ters written by Cook in effusively af-
fec,ionate style, to Miss Jennie Lam

HIS RoMANCE ENDED.
Axel Anderson Frustrated Over
the Fickleness OF His Fiancee.

AXeI Anderson, a carpenter residing
on Logan avenue, at South st. Paul.
took laudanum yesterday, and narrowly
escaped death. Anderson is single
man. and has lately returned from
five months stay at Seattle, Wash. He
was at one time employed by the Bohn
Manufacturing company, but, becoming
convinced that larger pay was to be
gained by going to the slope. he threw
up his position and went West. When
i'll st. Paul formerly Anderson was
new arrival from Sweden, and could
speak but very imperfect English. He
told his friends, however, that he was
engaged to a young woman in Stock
holm, and that he was to send for her as
soon as he became able. Anderson was
steadily employed in Seattle, and while
there he purchased house and lot, with
view to carrying out his matrimonial
contract with the Stoc aholm belle.
About the middle of November he sent
$50 to the girl, telling her to come to
Chicago and that he would meet her
there. Anderson went to Chicago on
Dee. 10, and returned on Christmas day
without the lady. Yesterday morning
Anderson did not answer after being
called repeatedly, and the door of his
heavily and doctor was sent for. 1t
was then discovered that the man had
taken laudanum, and was in critical
condition. DR.. DockStader applied
emetlcS, and, after a struggle, Anderson
was declared out of danger. He de-
clared that the reason he I'd taken
laudanum was that he wanted to get
some sleep, having been awake for sew
eral nights in succession. He admits
that he has been much troubled
in mind over the happenings
of the past two weeks. He worked hard
during the entire summer, and sent his
savings to Stockholm to pay the passage
to America Of his prospective wife.
She arrived IN Chicago as had been ar
ranged, but with her came ma II whom
Anderson mad never seen before. This
worthy was introduced to Anderson as
Henry Loika, and he, in turn. intro
duced the lady as his wife. Loika po-
litely told Anderson that he and Miss
Arneson had been married four months,
and that they were saving money to
come to America when AnderSon's let
ter containing the $3.50 arrived. They
determined to use the money to reach
the states and pay 1t back after their
arrival. Anderson returned to ST. Paul
and endeavored TO forget the tickle
dame. but the strain was too great, and
his efforts to secure relief FROM torment
ing reflections almost resulted in his
death. He stated last night that he mad
no intention of sGiciding, and was UNI
aware that he had taken an overdose of
the drug. He is resting easily at pres
ent, and will recover.
