. H Dethr.dned EmperOr.

Just fifty years. ago to-day Dom Pc
dro was crowned Emperor of Brazil,
but he will not celebrate the day as
did Queen Victoria her jubilee, for
Dom Pedro is now, in exile from his
beloved country, Which now flies re-
publican cOlorS. However much we
may cOgratulateNourselves upon the
ascendancy of republican ideas and
and customs over the time-worn the
ory of the divine right of kings, we
must feel sorry for the broken-hearted
Pedro, than whom no better king, no
more human pOtentate, no more be-
nignant ruler ever held sway over a
people. A man of his sterling, kindly
character would have yielded grace
fully to tidal wave of republicanism,
but crown is not to be trusted al
ways, and SO he was banished. To-day
he is wanderer among the courts
of Europe crOwnleSs, homeless king.
Not so with the Saint Paul and Du-
luth Railroad, or, as it is popularly
known, the Duluth Short Line. 1t is
the king OF routes between the Twin
Cities and the head of the lake, pro-
viding the best and quickest service
obtainable. When going to or from
Duluth or West Superior, always take
the Duluth Short Line; you will find
it the best. Circulars, ETC., ,cheerfully

BURGLARY AT LAKE CRYSTAL.
[From the Union.l

Two men entered through window
the residence of Ed. Lewis on north
Main street, the Arthur Robinson
place], last Friday night, chloroformed
the dog and then Mr.. Lewis, but were
frightened away before securing any
plunder. The night was very dark,
just the time for robbery and murder
if necessary. Mrs. LewisOhad cou-
sin, Mary Price, stopping with her,
and all had retired before eleven
o'clock. Mr.. Lewis slept up stairs
directly over the bed room occupied
by his wife and Miss Price, which was
a room adjoining the dining room
down stairs. A short time before the
arrival of Passenger No. /, from the
east, Miss Price heard buggy drive
up near the house and stop; all be-
came quiet, and in a short time both
ladies were doing, Mr.. L. having
dropped asleep before this. After a
short time Mrs. L. was awakened by
hearing whispering sounds in the Sit
ting or dining room: then heard a door
out in the kitchen, and then someone
going up stairs, but thought it might
be her husband had been down stairs,
so made no outcry. Soon after hear.
ing the persons go up the stairs, Mrs.
L. heard her husband make two low
groans, which thoroughly alarmed the
ladies, and Mrs. L. thought that was
about the last of her husband; she
called his name several times, and re-
ceiving no answer screamed. I'M
mediately after the intruders were
heard walking about as if searching
the room, but soon passed down the
stairs and out through the window on
the porch, by which they came in, and
Mr.. Lewis says was the only one with
out screen and was not open on their
retiring. Mrs. Lewis and her cousin
sprang out of bed and screamed sever
al times, but received no answer; then
ran up stairs, and after shaking and
calling some little time succeeded in
arOusing Mr.. L., wO in daZed way
asked what was the matter. He fin
ally dressed and went down stairs, lit
a lamp and made an examination of
the premises. On retiring they had
left the dog in the sitting room, and
he being an alert saucy little fellow,
had never failed before to alarm the
house on the slightest provocation,
but on investigation there he lay
sound asleep, utterly unconscious of
anything wrong, and was with diff
Guilty aroused: in fact, the next day
herefused to eat, vOmited, land was very
stupid. Mr.. Lewis got his revolver,
loaded it and went to the barn; the
door was unfastened and stood ajar.
Just outside the barn he found a
heavy willow stick about four feet
long, and woman's old dress skirt.

A S1,400 VERDICT.

The Hewson-Richardson suit was
given to the jury at $50 0 clockTuesday
night, and the latter remained out
until 2 o'clock before an agreement
could be reached. The verdict was
handed in this morning, and was in
favor of the appellant, Joseph Hew-
son, who was awarded 81, 400. The
amount asked for was S2,7O0, but the
outcome is fairly satisfactory all
around, being sort of compromise.
Judge Torrey had allowed Hewson
only 1924.
Anton Studulska was sentenced to
confinement at the reform school for
five years, and Deputy Bowen will
take him to st. Paul.

Francis Caldwell, of LIE Sueur. The
plaintiffs sue to recover S3OS, and which
they claim Mr.. Mutt agreed to pay.
The suit was mainly to establish Mr.
Mutt as responsible for the bill with
Mclean, tho ugh only the latter sign
ed the contract with the machine
company. G. L. Benedict appeared
for the plaintiff and Lorin Cray for
the defendant.

IN THE CONTESTANTS FAVOR.
Judge Buckham Renders Decision
Favorable to Augustus Waite.

Judge Thomas S. Buckham, of Far
ibault, has reached decision in the
Waite -FriSbie contested will case,
and it was feceived by Clerk of Court
Thorne last night. 1t is in accord
ance with the ruling of the Supreme
court, and is favorable to the con-
testant, A. f. Waite.
The decision is lengthy one. 1t
first states the grounds upon which
probate was resisted, that Mrs. F'ris-
bic was not of sound and disposing
mind and memory at the time the will
is claimed to have been executed, that
the will was not signed and attested
in conformity with the requirements
of the Statutes relating to execution
of wills, and that the will did not
truly express Mrs. Ffisbie's will in
relation to the disposition of her
property.
Then follow the facts which are du-
ly admitted or proven. that Mrs. Fris-
bic was of sound and dispesing mind
and memory and was in all respects
competent to make a will, and that
the will was properly subscribed and
attested in her presence. In regard
to the this point, Judge Buckham
says:
"That the first five subdivision of
said will were dictated by the said
Josephine 0. Frisbie, and written out
by her husband in accordance with
such dictation and read to and 'ap-
proved hby her; but that the sixth
subdivision was written by the said
O. 0. Pitcher, in accordance with
what he was informed and understood
to be the direction of said Josephine
0. Frisbie, but not in her own words,
which directed the provision that if
her brother Augustus should spend
his money in the saloons and have to
go to the poor house she wanted her
husband to take care of him: and
that. said sixth subdivision was not
read&by or to her, nor in any manner
explained to her, and that she execut-
ed in the feeling and on the assurance
that what she desired about her
brother was contained therein: and
that the said instrument, SO offered
for probate, did not in this respect
express the will of the testatrix."
Judge Buckham thus overrules the
first two points raised by the contest
ant, but sustains the third He says:
GAS conclusions of law, [ find that
the proponents are not entitled to
have the said will of Josephene O.
Frisbie. so offered by them and bear
ing date on the first day of may, 1889,
admitted to probate as and for the
last will and testament of the said
Josephene o. Frisbie, but that the
same should be refused probate, and
the order of the Probate Court admit
ting the same to probate reversed.
and that Judgment should be entered
herein so declaring and adjudging
Let Judgment be entered accordingly.
THOMAS S. BUCKHAM,
District Judge.
A memorandum follows, in which
Judge Buckham says that the evil
dence seems very strong IN favor of
the finding upon the first point. 'If|
not, then the proponents case is a
tissue OF falsehoods, a barefaced con-
spiricy to foist spurious will on an
intelligent and refined lady by a num-
Der of her friends" some with slim
motives and others with no motives.

After the adjournment of the as

ed officers, as follows:
Geo. T Barr, President.
Chas. A. Chapman, Secretary.
John G. Wise, Treasurer.
VIM. f. Jewson, Actuary and Super
intendent.
r. D. Hubbard, J. n. Hall and J.

committee. The superintendent's
salary was fixed at so per month for
the ensuing year.
Secretary Chapman has filed that
office for the past twenty-three years,
and has done some excellent service
for the association. 1t would be diff
cult to fill the office so satisfactorily
in all respects.
The association and private indi-
viduals have expended over $4,000
on the grounds of the cemetery, and
they are as beautiful as any to be
found in the state. The work of i'm
provement progresses with even pace.
The neat and welfkept appearance of
the cemetery is largely due to the
care and attention bestowed by Supt.
JewsOn.
lnaSmuch as so much money and
care has been devoted to the cemetery,
and the large amount of travel which
it causes, besid 5 the vast ordinary
country traffic, the city should not
hesitate to put the avenue leading to
it in the best possible condition. The
municipality owes that much to the
association,if if there were no other rea-
sons for the imprOyement,

The Beauty Standard.

The standard of female loyeliness
varies greatly in different countries
and with individual tastes. Some
prefer the plumb and buXom type:
some admire the slender and sylph-
like, and some the tall and queenly
maidens. But among all people of the
Caucasian race, one point of beauty is
always admired-a pure, clear and
spottless complexion-whether the fe-
male be of the blonde, brunette, or
hazel-eyed type. This first great re-
quisite of loveliness can be assured
only by pure state of the blood, ac-
tive liver, good appetite and diges-
tion, all of which are secured by the
use of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery 1t is guaranteed to &C
complish all that is claimed for it, or
money refunded. If you would have
a clear, lovely complexion, free from
eruptions, moth patches, spots and
blemishes, use the "Golden Medical
