surinised that it had given away on account

port OH The dam about one and u half years

strengthened the weak places. Mr.. Wagner

fears are entertained for the safety Of that
town, but as there is no Geographic com

History repeats itself, and Anoka re-
ceived the same dose of base ball from
the St. Cloud nine, which was dished
up to the Sank Centre visitors last sea-
son. The Anoka Herald says oft:
The afternoon game was the rankest
exhibition of winning game with ten
men that was ever witnessed by cranks of
the ball field. Decision after decision was
made in favor of the St. Cloud base rum
ners and about the only way to retire the
side was to strike them out or put them
out by caught flies. Chas. Weber was
the umpire aud nothing seemed to rank
forhim to do There is one thing certain,
Anoka will never play another game
with stool pigeon for an umpire if they
know it. One thing is sure; St.
Cloud cannot leel proud of the treat
1nent our boys received in the af,ernoon
and many of her citizens expressed their
disgust"

Mr.. S. P. Roach. of Paynesville, leading
the forces that wished to cut loose from

finally read out of the Alliance, it being
held that he was not eligible because he
had other business besides farming, and
he Indignantly left the hall. If our cor

case stands. He wants Gaspard also to get
from the Marquis certificate that his (Ro-
chon's) conduct in Washington was perfectly
good The people in France, he complains, are
turning the cold shoulder on him on account
of his double life. A prospect of liberal
reward is to be held out to the Marquis, but the
Marquis is to be informed at the same time that
the liberality of the reward will depend upon
the zeal which he shows for his clients interest;
in other words, If he wants to be paid we'll he
must hustle The nephew is to be sure and tell
the Marquis most particularly that the uncle
owns no property in Washington, and that
while plenty of money will be forthcoming to
reward good legal services the estate in France
does not amount to much. If the Marquis
should seem Indifferent the nephew is to interest
him by giving him some money and promising
him more. ''Show him plenty, but give him
little. Give him bread and promise butter.n
Altogether, like many another man of ancient
and modern times who was not content with
single wife, Monsieur Rochon shows himself to
be a shrewd fellow and close bargainer.
Monsieur needs money, as his letter shows,
for the case has gone against him in Lyons
The nephew, if he should fail to get entire salts
faction out of the Marquis, is to apply to An
drew Pollock, distinguished lawyer of this
city. But the Marquis had already been fed
by NJ. Rochon, and he ought therefore, to be
reliable. Monsieur also wants certificate of
good conduct from Mr.. Pollock But Pollock
is to be worked in different way. Gaspard is
to play upon Pollocks sympathy just as he is
W pay On InS CuPlultJ III Inc MARQUIS, ana
the nephew is not to forget to tell Mr.. Pollock,
too, that Monsieur has no property in Washing
ton. In order to win the certificate of good
conduct from Mr.. Pollock he is to tell of case
in which man, dying in Washington, did by his
last will and testament make Monsieur the
guardian of his two children, trust which, of
course, would not be reposed in a bad man.
"Then,' said Monsieur, changing the subject,
81 amglad the Republicans have won,n refer
ring to the election of Harrison and Morton.
"They'll give ouplenty of custom. That Cleve-
land never made any business at ALL"
When President Cleveland in 1887 received
the petition of Madame Rochon he Immediately
caused all communication between Roehon's
establishment and the White House to be cut
Off Rochon, who was accustomed to dress
Mrs. Cleyeland's hair, was not to do so any
more, which goes to show that Mr.. Cleveland,
when President, was master of the White House
in pretty nearly every department. The case
having gone against him in Lyons, Monsieur
needed money badly, and he hoped his nephew
would make plenty of it. In the mean time, to
create sympathy and TO avert suspicion, the
nephew was to tell everybody that the uncle
would never return to America.
