HERE'S a CJRIo-s PIG.
He's a Cross Between a Kangaroo
and r 4zorback.
From the Netg York Adrertissr.

ana 3zorbaCE.
From the Netv York advertiser.
In a stuffy pen in stu1ier loft under the
shingled roof Of No. $50 Maiden lane, O
curious looking animal, with greasy hide
and a temper as hot as Aug. Is, is idly
Willing away the first few days of his
sojourn in this city. He has an Intelligent
countenance, and undoubtedly knows more
of the world III general than he is in posi-
ton to tell. He lounges about oil day,
wrapt i'll thought and a wooden blanket,
listening attenIively TO what is going on,
and making his presence known only by
grunts of satisfaction or disapproYal Of
what is being said or done.
He landed here few DAYS ago from the
steamer Habana, from Havana. and is on
short visit to his friend, Joaquin CosiO. at
the address given above. Some folks
might call him handsome, but it is doubtful
if he ever could cut a figure in society If he
brought his countenancs along. He has q
face like fried egg. and rim of whiskers
around il like a gro with OF stunted sprouts.
But he's healthy and doesn't mind it.
Mr.. Cosio thinks he is a bird. Mr. Cosio's
friends, who have paid their respects to the
stranger, say he's hog, in the literal
sense. and contend their point on the ground
that what the opposition says is a beek is
as much like tailors oil as that of bird.
The other side claims that the bird theorists
don't know bill when they see il. And 80
the matter rests, with beak or a snout,
which ever it Is. a bone of contention be-
tween the two parties.
But the animal looks like pig for all
that, and one of the most curious looking
pigs in the country. He has never had
more than two legs. and those are situated
a little 10 front Of the center of his body. He
cannot walk like the more complete speci-
mems Of. his race. but "gets there" all the
he lifts his feet and moves in manner
Characteristic of frog He was born about
two years ago IN the wilds of Remste, out-
side Of Havana, and was captured quite re-
Gently and sent to Mr.. Cosio. There are no
signs OF any hind legs

There's a good deal OF guarantee
business in the store-keepfng of to-
day. It's too excessive Or too reluc-
tant. Half the time it means moth
ing. Words only aoords.
This offer to refund the money, or
to pay reward, is made under the
hope that you won't want your money
back, and that you won't claim the
reward. OF course.
So, whoever is honest in making it,
and works-nOt on his own reputation
alone, but through the local dealer,
whom you know, must have something
he has faith in back of the guarantee.
The business wouldn't stand a year
without 1T.
What is lacking is confidence. Back
of that, what is lacking is that clear
honesty which is above the average
practice"
DIR. Pierce's medicines are guaranteed
to accomplish what they are intended
to do, and their makers give the
money back if the result isn't appar-
ent.
Doesn't it strike you that medi.
cine, which the makers have so much
confidence in, is the medicine for you:

1t will be seen that the division in
population is very equal. If we take
the result of last falls election it will
give the Republicans but two districts,
but this basis of computation for future
results is hardly fair. 1t is not believ-
ed that repetition of such a tidal
wave is likelyIto occur again in the near
future. If it does it would be diff
cult to form any district which would
afford basis for anything like an in
telligent guess as to results. Waseca
county is not Democratic, yet it gave
Baker majority of nine over Lind,
and in being set over into the First
district we believe it will be an ele-
ment of strength rather than weak
ness to the Republicans. By placing
LIE Seuer and Sibley counties in the
third it makes that district reliably
Democratic, while it takes from the
Second district two counties which
naturally belong to it, geographically
and commercially.
When all the points are thoroughly
discussed regarding reapportionment
if nothing more radical or unfair is
pushed through the people will not
seriously object to the Craig bill.
For Democrat to prepare and pre-
sent it is not bad.

SPEAKING of wheat culture in Great
Britain, the London Miller of late
date rather deSpondingly says: "The
report on the agricultural returns of
Great Britain for 1890, issued by the
statistical department of the board of
trade, is of painful interest for those
VINO have hoped, even against hope,
for some revival of our great industry
OF wheat growing. A careful dissec-
Thhn and compilation of individual re-
turns, amounting in the aggregate to
considerably over half a million, show
that during the past year the wheat
acreage of this country has decreased
10y p per cent. compared with 1889,
for, whereas in the latter year British
farmers laid 2,449,OOO acres under
wheat, only 1886, 900 acres were sown
with that cereal in the II months
which have just closed. Thus the
Slight increase noted in 1888 in wheat
cultivation has nearly all been lost,
and the figures for 1890 stand below
all Others, with the exception of two
wears, 1888 and 1884, which showed
wheat areas of 2,286,OOO and 2,317, 900
acres respectively. A glance at the
carefully prepared statistics before us
shows how steady and persistent has
been the decline in what may be term
ed cur staple agricultural industry. If
Ihe mean wheat acreage of the five
years that ended with 1890 be taken
into consideration, the figures of the
present year will exhibit loss of ESQ.,
800 acres. If we go back to the 1915
period, which is anterior to the de-
preston in our agriculture that fol-
lowed on the great development of
farming in the Western States of
America, we find no less than l,140,-
$50 acres have passed out of wheat cul-
t1Ire, This means that at the present
time only two acres are to be found
nnder wheat in Great Britain, COM
pared with three acres some fifteen
years ago. The cause of this moment
ous revolution in our agriculture is

THE most reyolutionarv nroceedings

THE most revolutionary proceedings
ever enacted by State legislature
since the surrender of Lee was that
witnessed at Lansing, Mich. Tuesday
afternoon. Ten senators were absent
attending the Republican state con-
vention at Jackson. The Democrats
taking advantage of this fact pro-
ceeded to unseat Messrs. Morse and
Horton, both Republicans, by strict
party vote, and declared Messrs. Fried
lander and Morrow, the contestants,
entitled to the seats. The three Pa
irons of Industry senators stood with
the Republicans, but their combined
forces were too weak to stem the tide.
A body of men so lost to common de-
cency as to take advantage of absen-
tees in this manner and steal the seats
of two lawfully elected and legally
seated representatives should receive
the execration of every honest man.

IT pleases the Globe, hence every
body should be happy. This is what
7Ghe Democratic organ of Minnesota
says Of one of the districts mapped out
by the Craig re-apportionment bill:
4'The county Of Goodhue, with its nor
mai Republican majority of 1000, is
tied TO long string OF Democratic
strongholds, which will make it abso-
lutely impossible for the Republicans
TO get solid Minnesota delegation
an The next ten years" And that's
Just about the size of it.

only too clearly explained by the rec
ord Of wheat prices, which were near
ly twice as high in the years immed-
lately succeeding 1870, compared with
the quotations of to-day's markets.
How steady and continuous has been
the pressure thus exercised on wheat
growers may be judged from the fact
that between the years 1870 and 1880
about 59l, 600 acres ceased to grow
wheat, while the decline from the
latter date to 1890 is measured by 523,
600 acres "

COLONEL ROBERT G. INGERsoLL,
who has known the late Secretary
Window for twenty-siy years, said to
Chicago reporter recently: ga bet
Ger man neverliyed, nor happier one.
His married life was like unbroken
spring day. His was really true hap
Qiness. He cared more for the COM
forts of home than the glamor of re-
nown.sf The truly happy man is he
who prefers the solitude of the val
ieys, where brooks sing of content
ment, where repose dwells far away
from the maddening crowd and uproar-
aous multitude. There it is that true
happiness is found. Such life did
Secretary Window live. He loved
home not alone for the sweet repOse
1T afforded, but also for the joys I'M
selfishly shared with a beloved wife. -
