with large assortment of his fine
White Flint Spectacles which wearers of
glasses SO highly prize. Hewill call on
some of our citizens and those in need
of spectacles, will do well to procure
them Of him. Good glasses ease and
perserve the eyes, but poor spectacles
make them prematurely old
Some men have a heroic disregard of
the teachings of their early education.
A New Jersey Democrat has declined
an office for which he holds the certifi-

a terrible crime was committed in a
Bohemian settlement q few miles east
of Montgomery, lie Sueur County, on
Wednesday evening of last week. The
parties concerned were Thomas Jindra,
Frank Weiner and Christina Washa.
The two men were rivals in love for the
young lady, who was beautiful girl of
sixteen, and it is supposed now that she
favored Weiner. At about nine o'clock
Frank Washa, a brother of Christina,
was awakened by Jindra and cody in
formed by him that he had killed his
(Washa's) sister. Hurriedly dressing,
Washa, accompanied by the murderer,
fastened to his sisters house. There
an appalling spectacle awaited him.
On the floor was his sister, weltering in
blood and quite dead, while stretched
across the bed was Weiner, evidently
mortally wounded. While trying to
grasp the situation two pistol shots rang
out and Jindra sank beside his sweet
heart, having completed the tragedy by
planting two bullets in his brain.
A Washington special to the Pioneer
Press sizes up Jim Tawney' visit to the
capital city in the following; j. A.
Tawney, OF Winona, was here for the
hrst time and remained week. He
had not been in this city two days be-
fore q alf-hundred politicians from all
parts of the country were on sufficiently
good terms to call him Jim" Mr..
Tawney once thought it was great
thing to be a Congressman. He watched
the antics of the Democrats during their
flllibustering, and got disgusted with
them. He went away with the idea that
| it is better to have dignifed law prac-
tice in quiet Minnesota city than to
take chances OF being forever squelched
in an attempt to make speech in the
bear garden over which a relentless
speaker presides. He now believes that
the lower house is no place for boys.
Now that we have it, what will we do
1 with it? That is the question which the
people OF Chicago are at present
most interestedly concerned in. The
Worlds Fair site has been given to
their beautiful city, and it now hefalls
them to rack their heads and-exert their
energy to make the Fair the superior OF
former ones, the best and biggest of all.
That they will be equal to the task. no
one doubts. Chicago is city Of push,
and that same ..get there spirit, which
won for her the prize, will, now. that
she has it, make of it a success. Chi
cago naturally may not be as well fitted
| I e-s,.1e
but what is lacking in natural and pos
sessed accommodations will readily be
made up by their indomitabie energy.
The Worlds Fair will be its great OPP
portunity and its citizens can be de-
pended upon to make it good.
