Stick the thumb nail into it; if it goes
in with a soft, mushy sound, it is
green; if it goes in with sharp clink,
it is ripe. But the surest test is the
sound of the snap. Gentle pressure
on a ripe melon will make it crack
inside; but this test ought not to be
tried very much, for if the melon is
green, its internal economy will be
injured by the squeeze.

IN the battle against all iniquity in this
present evil world.-N. w. Christian
Advocate.

The Wonderful Gulf Stream.

St. Louis Republic.
The Gulf Stream receives its name
from the fact that it was long suppos~

out of which it flows between the
coast of Florida on the one side and
the Bahama Islands on the other. 1t

narrowest portion and often has a We

an hour. This great ocean river
flows in north.easterly direction
along the North American coast,
gradually widening its current and
diminishing its velocity until it
reaches the "banks of NewfOund-
land" where it sweeps out into the
Atlantic. 1t has usually been held
that the Gulf Stream extends across
Atlantic to the shores of Northeast.

tertained is that, as a distinct cur

of Newfoundland" are caused by the
cold Arctic stream coming in con-

ing forced to "dive" under it, the di>

the sands at that point and piled
them up in banks. The waters of
the Gulf Stream are of deep indigo

WHERE IS THE LICENSE?
The Shades" Saloon Seems to
Defy the Law.

Defy the Law.
The police would like to know who
owns the license for the saloon at 223
Third street south, the OLD "Shades. y
The names Of Hamilton & Tyler ap-
pear on the window as proprietors.
But they don't seem to have license.
Hamilton and Tyler are colored men,
and the saloon is patronized by men of
color principally.
A man who has judgment against
Hamilton was in the comptrOller's
office yesterday inquiring about the
saloon at 223 Third street. He wanted
to know if Hamilton was the owner, so
that he could proceed against him. No
license has been issued to either Hamil-
ton or Tyler for over year. Nor has
one been issued for that location. But
the saloon runs. Now, who owns it?
Several days ago the police inquired
about the license for that place. The
pseudo proprietors said they had a
license but it was in litigation. 1t has
not yet been learned who the other par
ties TO the litigation are. Early last
winter an attempt was made to open
saloon there, but it was closed upon an
attachment before the formal 'sopen-
ing"
There is another point in this which
may get Hamilton into trouble. The
saloon was raided Wednesday night
and gamblers and gambling parapher-
MALTA seized. Hamilton swore in the
municipal court that he owned no part
of the business, escaping fine thereby.
But there is an affidavit of Hamilton's
on file III the district court which sets
forth that he owns half the saloon.
Which is correct?

SOUGHT ACTIVE SERVICE.
Why a Soldier of the Regular
Army Deserted in Minneapolis.

The United States army recruiting
station in Minneapolis has lost man
not a recruit, but an old soldier. Priv
ate Fred Dawson, who was on detached
service here, has, it seems, levanted.
He drew his pay April / and has not
been seen since. The restrictions of
army life didn't suit his proud, re bellious
spirit. But he knew what the army
was, and should have known better
than enlist a second time. He was
serving out a second enlistment term.
Dawson was wild sort of fellow. He
left the army couple of years ago,
having served five years. He had rich
relations in Albany, n. Y. They estab-
lished him in the saloon business.
They were sports who spent lots of
money. So was Dawson. He trotted
with them and at the end of a year he
mad no money and no saloon. Then he
concluded that he would re-enlist He
did SO and was sent to jefferson bar
racks, st. Louis. Being handy with
pen, he was made a clerk. A couple of
months ago he was sent to Minneapolis
for service at the recruiting station.
His place was snap" but he didn't
like the town. He has not been seen in
Minneapolis since the first Of the month,
when he drew his pay. He had APP
piled for his discharge, but didn't get it.
