OPPOSE AN EXTRA SESSION.

Some Members Who Don't Want the
Legislature Convened-Prince's Plan.
ST. PAUL, Aug. 19.-Hon. H. G. Stivers,
representative from Crow Wing county,
Representative CIV. Benner, Of Dexter,
Mower county and Senator Henry Keller,
of stearns county, were among the mem
bers of the legislature in St. Paul during
the day who expressed themselves as be-
ing opposed to the calling of an extra
session Of the legislature to make an ex-
ira worlds fair appropriation. Their
opposition was merely ON the grounds
that it would be unwise and that the
legislature might not pass such bill if
it was called. All were in favor of the
extra money, and Keller and Stivers
offered to head a subscription with 800
each.
At meeting of the chamber of COM
merce a communication was read from
Hon. j. s. Prince opposing plan of calling
an extra session. He thought the money
should be raised by popular subscription
and suggested that handsomely engraved
certificates to the amount of $4,000 be
issued in sums of 81 or more each, and
that 100000 patriotic men be found to
take them up.

Why, of course. That is the favorite
method OF all of these ''organs," official

Republican paper of standing and inllu-

against its business methods, until it
hits back. Then these concerns, which
can never hope to secure living busi-

the above to build up their tottering cir

The Dell Rapids Times seems to have
caught on to one of the cleverest advertis-
ing schemes ever set on foot. Itsays:
The Times is in receipt of a number
OF eastern papers containing marked az
ticles in regard to the alleged practice
OF certain druggists to substitute home-
made nostrums for well-known reliable
patent medicines, to the detriment Of
their customers. OF course these pa
pers are taking this matter up of their
own accord and flooding the country with
extra copies for the protection Of the
dear people, but the unanimity with
which the names of certain medicines
are mentioned is significant and makes
it look like clever advertising dodge,
or at least matter OF which some of the
medicine manufacturers are cleverly
taking advantage. A good many of the
local papers have swallowed the bait
and are echoing the warning to the
public.

is that the dislnemberment was caused
by the body being caught in steamer

Fight with Crazy Man.
CHICAGO, Aug. 19.-Two South Chicago
policemen had desperate struggle with
a crazy negro on housetop. The mans
name is Nathan Whitfield. He at one
time conducted a saloon at Lightwood
and Strand streets. He became violent
and ran from one street to another,
striking at persons who were in his way,
At Ninetieth and Strand streets there is
a vacant house. Whitfield, who is a big,
stalwart fellow, put his shoulder against
the front door and it flew off its hinges.
He ascended to the roof. and swinging
himself over the edge, grasped the cor
pice and moved hand over hand across
the front of the three-story building. By
this time crowd Of 200 or 300 persons
stood in the street watching his strange
actions. Officers Mcnamara and Rowan
rushed up through the house and climbed
out on the roof through a skylight. Then
a terrific battle ensued. The crazy man
wrenched the club from Officer Rowan's
hands and flung it into the street. He
then struck Mcnamara a blow in the
face which staggered him. Officer
Rowan grabbed the man around the
waist and tried to throw him down. In
less than half minute the officers coat
was torn from his person. Whitfield
had caught the garment by the tails and
split it up the back to the collar. He
was at last overpowered and taken to the
station, where he had to be strapped
down.

Ocean street on the east. Loss about
