away tomorrow; some are there
for what there is to be made on the
spot; others for what they hope
for in the future. The past session
more than ever was made up of
men who thought more about their
personal record than they did
about the benefits which they might
confer upon the State. Instead Of
voting for and putting through
such measures as were Just and
right regardless of consequences,
they truckled and trimmed and
scrutinized the record, and won
dered after each vote how it would
strike their constituents. And
now these same men with copies of
the house and senate journals in
their hands are pointing to the
"records," while the newspapers
are nominating them for congress

ambitious men were judged by the

THOSE ELECTRIC CARS. What
a strange sight to see a car moving
along without horse, engine or
cable. Only wire over head and
what DR.. Holmes calls a (Which
BROOM going up from the car to
connect with it. With ''trailer''
as the back car is called, and from
so to 100 passengers on, when the
driver turns the magic crank and
lets off the brake the car goes
moving on up the steepest grade,
where four or six horses would
pull and slip and climb with the
greatest difficulty, as if it were but
toy cart it was pulling. Strange
power, a most wonderful sight.
We are reading the life of Wash
ington by Irving, and can but
query what the father Of our
country would think if he should
wake up and see these cars moving
as if bewitched, rapidly along the
way.
KEEP THEM ON THE Track
A lesson has been taught US by
the street cars. The new electric
cars on the new tracks 60 moving
along smoothly and it is pleasure
to go flying along the streets in
them. But we have had the mis-
fortune recently to be on some Of
the old horse cars that persisted in
running off the track. The mo-
ment we leave the track it is Jump
and jolt and shake, and a suspense
of pending danger that is painful
to experience.
How like our lives that rail and
car is. When we keep on the
rails that our heavenly Father has
laid down for us to run on, or in
other words do his will, how
smooth and pleasant the way of
our life is. When we jump the
track, break Gods laws, and run
out onto the stormy and rough
places of sin, how we are jolted
and shaken, and how hard we find
it sometimes to get back onto the
track.
A YOUNG MANS REPENTANCE.
In the City Mission where we
spoke last Sunday evening, a
young man arose for prayers. He
was a fine manly looking fellow,
not one that we would Judge had
ever known dissipation or any
great sin, but he had known the
joys and the peace of salvation,
but was ''off the track" and
though he repented with tears he
couldn't seem to find peace until
we showed him the promise in
John /, 8. eff we confess our
sins he is faithful and just to for
give us our sins and to cleanse us
from all unrighteousness.o IF
you are off the track come back to
God with this promise, and get

PIONEER DAYS.
Hon. John Z. d. sadley in a
Reminiscent Mood.
How Hans Northrop Served
Two Indian Murderers.

The st. Cloud Times of the 4th
inst, is authority for this:
Among the arrivals at the Grand
Central hotel last evening was
John T. D. Sadley, of Princeton.
Mr.. Sadley is we'll known in St.
Cloud, especially to the older set
tiers, and when he lists can tell as
many anecdotes of the noble red
man in the pioneer days, as any
other old timer. He met his friend
Geo. f. Fuller, of Moorhead, who
is attending to court matters here,
last evening and they, in company
with John Coates, Of this city, and
several others discussed matters
generally. The conversation was
Of rambling nature and reverted
to the time when St. Cloud was
about the limit of civilization, way
back before the civil war. tsDo
you remember old Hans North
rop," said sadley turning to Coates.
EYES," replied the latter, che used
to be sheriff of Benton county,
when Benton meant everything
north Of here.'' eyes, the same
fellow" returned Sadley. "Well,
it happened that a couple of In
dams murdered white man at
Gull Lake and had been captured
by the sheriff. Hans began the
trip to st. Paul, but after travelling
about half a day and when in what
is now Benton county he concluded
that it was all foolishness to take
the Indians to St. Paul anyhow.
He had done it several times before
and all the punishment that had
& n
been melted out to the reds was a
new. blanket Or something of that
kind. So all of a sudden Hans
drew up the horses and stopped.
He got a tamarack pole and stuck it
through the branches of two trees.
Fastened two ropes to the pole and
drove the wagon with the Indians
up. Adjusted the rope around
each Indians neck, gave the horses
a cut with the whip and never
looked around. The next day
Hans drove out to where the dead
Indians were hanging and after
looking them all over asked guilty
or not guilty. A hole was dug
right under the rude scaffold and
when the bodies were cut down
they fell in the excavation where
they were quickly covered up.
That tamarack pole remained there
for years, until it finally rotted and
fell down." Well, how about Hans,
didn't he get into trouble someone
asked, but the speaker assured
them that nothing was ever said
about it.

THEY MUST GO.
Mile Laos Indians Have no
Choice in the Matter.


White Earth is the Proper
Place for Them.
WASHINGTON, Special Telegram,
June 3.The appointment of Oar
win S. Hall means that the Chip
pewa Indian commission is to i'm
mediately go to work and carry
out the law and Instructions of the
Indian office in the matter of set
Ting up the affairs, Of the Chip
peWas in Minnesota.
The officials Of the department
say that 'Dar" is just the man to
push the work. MIR. Rice, who he
succeeds, had been a very faithful
and efficient officer and had done
all that was possible, but it now
needs man who is able to hustle
about among the Indians and see
that they move to White Earth
without delay or that they take al
lotments where they are now resid-
ing, as the law allows them to do.
Less than four hundred Indians
have been removed from the coded
Chippewa reservations to White
Earth, and only a very few of
them have selected land in sever
atty where they are now located.
Mr.. Hall is to be instructed that it
is desirable that all the Indians
should 60 to White Earth, and he
will discourage their locating on
the old reservations. One reason
why the Indians have not gone is
because certain traders living near
them have encouraged them to
stay, in order that they may get
the money that is paid to the In
dams. There is said to be a GER
aaain gang ia and around the tribes.
that is trying to thwart the desires
Of the government, and this class
OF people are very liable to hear
from Chairman Hall. This is es-
pecially the case at Leech Lake.
The Mile Laos have no volition in
the matter, but must 60 to White
Earth as fast as they can be trans
ferred. The Indian bureau is glad
of this, as these Indians have given
more trouble than any other band
Of the Chippewas.
It is expected that Mr.. Hall will
have most Of the work to do, as
Francis Campbell, of Wisconsin,
and Bishop Marty, Of South Dako-
ia, are the other members, and they
are at present engaged SO as not to
be able to give their whole time to
the Indians. It is expected that
Oar will bring the Chippewas to
camp and report early in the fall
that he has them rounded up.

We are promised a cat show in Paris.
This will not, perhaps, be so interesting
as baby show, but it will be a novelty
here. The Parisians like cats, and, as
everybody knows, they have highly dis
tinguished breed. Their long fur, bushv
tails and amiable faces have made them
celebrated as French cats, although m
reality they claim Oriental descent. At
all times in favor here, they were chiefly
appreciated during the siege, although
the quantity of meat in proportion to fur
was often disappointing A good cat of
steady habits-the profigate animals are
always lean-was worth twenty francs or
more few days before the capitulation.
If some old ladies had not chung to their
cats with great determination, and checked
their rowing impulses, they would doubt
less have been all eaten
Intelligence in cats grows in inverse
ratio to fur. The long furred animals are
sleepy and stupid, the short furred ones,
with tails like rats, are active, wide
awake and exceedingly enterprising

Diseases Among Chickens.

Fowls are subject to many diseases
when confined in restricted quarters in
towns that do not appear where unlimited
liberty is enjoyed on a farm. When
fowls are slightly ailing, but will still eat
and drink, there is hope for them, as
remedies can be administered in food and
water, but when they become so bad they
can only be doctored by force, unless in
the case of unusually valuable ones. the
best thing to do is to kill them and re-
move them from the others. For keeping
fowls i'll good health in small runs their
quarters should be kept clean and be oc-
casionally disinfected, and particularly
should they be kept free FROM vermin.
An ailing flock should at once be examined
for chicken lice, which constitute a fruit
full source of disease. When chickens are
infested with them, although they may eat
well they will not improve, but will lose
in tone and condition and so become easy
subjects for diseases. Fowls affected in
that way should be CREASED about the
neck and under the wings and along the
back, or insect powder may be busted into
the feathers. The quarters, after being
cleaned, should be sprayed with kerosene
oil Let them out for a run before going
to rOOst when it can be done. Give a
tablespoonful Of the Douglas mixture daily
in their drinking water while the disease
is on the premises, afterwards give to well
fowls two or three times a week

A Woman at a Restaurant.

A peep into one Of the big up town
restaurants, patronized largely by women
out shopping, discloses the fact that
women at luncheon are either excessively
economical or rather extravagant. She
comes in flying, breathless, scans the bill
of fare for the quickest thing to consume
and the cheapest, orders a bouillOn, or
sandwich, cup Of tea, or perhaps just
water; gobbles it, and is off on the trail
of bargain again in jiffy.
Or else she comes in slowly and calmly.
with an evident intention of spending a
pleasant hour. reads the bill of fare
through without haste, calls the waiter
to inquire if this or that dish is fresh,
though she does not intend to order it:
finally calls for a salad, an ice cream, an
oyster patty, an eclaire, a cheese cake, and
perhaps one or two other varieties of
whipped froth and baked wind, dips a
little into each, while chatting with her
friend about the weather, the bargains,
the fashions the theatre, her symptoms,
her dentist, her servants, her dressmaker
and her children; keeps the waiter hover
ing about in hopes of tip. while she puts
on tight pair of gloves and buttons them
up with hairpin; is sure she has been
overcharged, and requires considerable
explanation to convince her to the con
trary, trips up to the desk to pay and
omits to count her change, and finally
letters out beaming with satisfaction, to
return moment later in dire consterna-
ton, having left her parcels behind, and
insists on opening them all then and
there, to see if they have not been opened
and robbed.-New York Tribune.

Theoretical. Not Practical

gagged for long time on a book on the mem
DRY, which he will publish some day In the
middle of a chilly night, not so very long
ago, when the partner Of his joys and sorrows
was apparently lost in sweet sleep, the mem
DRY man suddenly jumped up in bed and ex-
claimed: 'Drat the luckI forgot to fill the
sitting room stove"
In scanty attire he struck out for the coal
cellar, and just as he disappeared there came
from beneath the bed covers, in sleepy,
tantaljzing tone: ''My dear, what chapter of
your book did you say you were working on

Celery of any kind, whether self blanch-
ing or not, is much more crisp and tender
if banked with earth A good way Of
preventing the earth from sitting in
among the stalks, says a correspondent
in Garden and Forest, is to wrap each
plant in a strip of butchers paper, say
from eight to ten inches wide. With a
garden trowel earth enough to hold the
papers in place can be easily managed;
then the plants should be hilled up almost
to the top of the papers. This plan is
recommended for early celery, and is not
much more extra work than the tying up
practiced by gardeners. Care must be
taken to hold the plants erect while put
ting on the papers.
