just Wanted to Swim.

The peculiar performance of passenger
on the steamship Iroquois was the cause OF
considerable excitement on the trip from
New York to Jacksonville, Fla. Just after
crossing the bar he tied the lead line around
his waist and jumped over the side for q
swim. He was jerked through the water
at a frightful speed, and the ship had to be
stopped and the cratic gentleman hauled
aboard. He said he merely wanted to take
an ocean dip, and thought he could keep
up with the ship.-Exchange.

Alliance; Fl. L. Loucks, of South Da.
kota, president Of the Alliance of that
state and late candidate for governor on
the Independent ticket; Mr.. Donnelly
and Miss Eva Mcdonald.

gates. The next matter in order was
the reports of officers, but it was moved
to suspend the order and proceed to the

nelly men wanted more time to encom-
pass his defeat. A viva voce vote was
not conclusive, and call of tho coun-
ties was taken, which resulted in q vote
Of 407 to 2l6 in favor Of proceeding to
dispose Of the presidency.
Messrs. Donnelly and Halverson were
placed in nomination, aud the roll call

MINNESOTA RAILROAD LANDS.

Tho St. Paul Chamber Of Cammcres
Working for an Adjustment Of Grants.
ST.. PAUL, Dec. 29.-The st. Paul
chamber of commerce is determined to
follow up its plan OF securing an adjust
ment of The railroad land grants of the
state, 80 that people may know what
lands are open for settlement and what
are not. It is claimed thatin Minnesota
there are about 10000 600 acres Of good
unoccupied farm lands, much or all Of
which might be turned over to actual
settlers as soon as the grants to railroad
companies are cleared up and syste-
matte immigration movement by the
state is put under way. This matter is
now before the St. Paul chamber OF
commerce, and that body will undoubt-
sdly make strong efforts to put matters
in such shape that an immigration
movement can be made in Minnesota,
by a legislative enactment requiring
railroad companies to complete their
land selections, and thus enable the
state to make the right kind Of q start
to bring In settlers for the remaining
uncconpied lands.
