A SENATORIAL ECHO.
Ryan, of Waseca County, Is c
the NNarncfh


the Warpath.
NJ. w. Ryan, of Waseca county, is
highly Indignant at the testimony given
by Representative Hanson before the
senatorial bribery investigation of two
years ago. 1t will be remembered that
this testimony was published recently,
and some of it got into the weekly
press. Mr.. Hanson made certain allie
cations respecting Mr.. Ryan, who re-
plies in this strain:
"A short time ago the Waseca Herald
published what purp0rted to be Repre-
sentative HanSon'S testimony before the
investigating committee of the legis!a-
ture of 1889, on the charges of bribery
and corruption in the election of United
States senator. Upon reading the same,
if Mr.. Hanson is reported correctly, L
must say that his statements on that Oc-
caSion, as far as they referred to any
connection of mine with the matter
under consideration. are wholly without
foundation. | never asked him to vote
for MI. Sabin for senator. | never told
him knew where he could get some
money. | never admitted before Mr..
ChristianSon, or any other NJ. Son, that
/ got $500 for HIM as he says, and no one
said in my presence that he could get
$500 more if Mr.. Sabin was elected, or
anything of that character. If Mr..
Hanson wished to clear himself before
the committee of suspicion of bribery.
he should have adhered to the facts, and
among other things might have told
them what he told me about the high
expenses of living. These ana some
other things which would look to man
up tree as if small fund handed to
him IN some WAY would be all right."

THE SEA KING"

The Sea King" given at the Metro
politan by the William j. Gilmore
Comic Opera company, is quite as de-
lightful as The Merry Monarch" The
scenery is very fine, and the costumes
are unique, striking and beautiful. The
company is strong in both numbers and
talent Mark Smith sings with his old
time spirit, and Elsie Warren, the So
prano, who takes the part of Dolores,
makes very pleasing impression. Bob
Graham as Spanish grandee provides
an abundance of fun. Katie Gilbert
plays the part of Rosita to perfection.
Taken all i'll all. The Sea King" is one
of the very best things produced at the
MetrOpOlitan since its opening.

The Man-Faced Crab.

One of the most singular looking
creatures that ever walked the earth or
''swam the waters under the earth is
the world-famous man-faced crab of
japan. Its body is hardly an inch in
length, yet the head is fitted with a
face which is the perfect counterpart
of that of a Chinese coolie; veritable
missing link, with eyes, nose, and
mouth all clearly defined This curious
and uncanny creature, besides the great
likeness it bears to human being in
the matter of facial features, is pro-
vided with two legs, which seem to
grow from the top of its head and hang
down over the sides of its face. Be-
sides these legs, two 'feelers," each
about an inch in length, grow from
the chin" of the animal, looking for
all the world like a colonel's forked
beard. These man-faced crabs fairly
swarm in the inland seas of Japan

vehicles were permitted to follow
The space around the monument
for the processionists was roped
off. This space extended north of
the monument about six hundred feet
to a path leading across one of the lake
bridges. Ropes were also placed one
hundred feet south Of the electric fount-
ain In each case these lines extended
east to the new regatta course. On
the west the spectators were allowed
to approach the edge of the drive skirt
ing the monument All the space out
side of these boundaries and the entire
new Lake Shore drive was open to spec
tators No vehicles were admitted, SO
that the view from any point on the drive
lake was also clear, and thousands of
people witnessed the ceremonies from
the decks of vessels. A temporary
bridge was thrown across the break ipe
the esplanade for the convenience of
spectators, and three pontoon bridges
were swung across the regatta course.
The managers endeavored in every way
to carry out the idea that this was
popular demonstration and did every
thing possible to provide for the popu-
that, on all such occasions, thousands
were unable to get within sight of the
monument and, of course, thousands
were correspondingly disappointed.
The gun boats anchored six hundred
feet east of the new drive and opposite
the monument The land saluting
battery was placed east of the electric
fountain and west of the regatta course.
The speakers platform was erected
east of the monument in the drive be-
meath. On one end of the stone abut-
ments of the base of the monument a
number of old flags used in the cam
paigns were seen. On the opposite
end the modern military flags and ban
ners of participating bodies were
placed.
The parade was one of the grandest
and in many respects one of the most
peculiar this city has ever seen Some
of the novel features were the appear
ance in line of the ex-confederate SOL

the Southern society, and one thousand
uniformed letter carriers. The military
display was the finest ever witnessed
