SALT Is SETTLING.
Collapse OF a Combine Causes a
Drop in Price.

ROCHESTER,. N. Y, March 5.-The
salt market has gone to pieces as the re-
suit of the collapse of the Western New
York combine. The price of salt is
tumbling, and there seems to be no bot
tom to it. Dairy SAT- is down 40 per
cent and common salt is 80 per cent
lower than on Jan. |. The salt market
is practically controlled by these West
ern New York concerns when
they act together, and al
though the Central New York
companies at Syracuse and other points
were not included in the trust, their
business is affected just as much as if
they were in the present controversy.
The agreement has been in force sew
eral years, and was limited to Jan.
|, 1892. 1t was not thought that there
would be any difficulty about renewing
the arrangement until the representa-
tiYes of the companies got together,
when it appeared that they did not
agree, some OF them favoring a strength
ening of the trust by more rigid ar
rangenents, and others rather leaning
the other way. Therefore the whole
business fell through, with the present
result.

Monday evening the birthday OF the oldest

Social functions have been sadly neglected
in Duluth of late, and the mining craze has
absorbed all the attention. Even school

attack of the fever.

A PRAYER CARPET.
know not when in Dagestan

] know not when in Dagestan
He lived, the skillful artisan,
Who wove, in some mysterious way,
This fabric where the colors play
Across the wool in rainbow chase,
Or meet and link and interlace.
Nor do know what supplant knees
First pressed these yielding symmetries,
The while the turbaned brow was turned
Toward Mecca, and the soul that yearned,
Borne by the rapt mueZzin's cry.
Scared, bird-like, up the tranquil sky.
But this know-foot meier shall press
Its worship-hallowed loneliness,
For still about it dumbly clings
A subtle sense of holy things,
And woven in the meshes there
Are strands OF VOW and shreds of prayer.
With kindling morning rays, the sun
It's blended colors shines upon;
The mosque domes catch the light, and 10
In tottering lines the camels go.
A fountain filings silver jet;
A palm tree cuts silhouette
But when night lids the eye of day,
And twilight glories fade away,
My fancy shapes fervent man
From shadows on the Dagestan.
Thus, In its compass shall see
The Orient in epitome.

ANY AMOUNT OF FUN.
But His Dad Licked Him for 1t,
CoOlly, but Thoroughly.

Coolly, but Thoroughly.
Old Sam johnson, who lives down in
Kennebec county town, is about the
soureSt and most straight-laced fellow
you ever saw, says the Lewiston Jour-
nal.
The other day he heard an awful clat-
ter out on long hill near his house.
He got out to the scene just in time to
see his son jed mount the OK cart, hold
up the tongue and coast down the hill
with thunderouS roar and cloud of
dust. The old man started OH the trail
down the hill picking up club OH the
way and yelling for Jed to come back
and take licking. But the nearer he
got to the trembling Jed the more the
real novelty and humOr appealed TO him.
When he got to the foot of the hill he
was grinnlng like ''chessy cat" as
Jed afterward declared.
"What in timenation you doin' with
that OK cart, JEDI"
"By CORY, dad I'm a-slidin' down hill
in Ell, dad: and it's more fun IAN de In
juns. Jest help me tOoSt Ter up hill and
take ride" said Jed, taking courage
from his fathers grin.
You sassy imp" sputtered Sam;
''I'm good mind to welt you"
"Oh, dad, come OH; its slathers of
fun"
mot by darned shot And sides,
some one may see me-"
''Git out; thev won't neither. Take
holt here an we'll run Ter up hill"
The old man couldn't resist. Chuck
ling, he helped push the cart up hill;
chuckling still, he crawled in, and he
Uttered as he told Jed to ''hold tight an
steer straight"
Away they went. But they had Just
got under Roadway when team came
jogging around a bend in the road at
the foot of the hill. The old OK cart
roared down in its headlong rush. A
wicked smash-up seemed imminent.
The frightened Jed, bewildered by
volley of squawks and yells, yanked the
tongue about, and the flying cart sheered
for the fields. 1t carcered wildly. hoped

wall and came to a wrecked Standstlll,
bottom upward. Jed and the old man
were beneath.
1t was six weeks before johnson got
the crick out OF his back and recovered
the use of his battered members. His
first duty at the end of those six weeks
was to lick Jed, not passionately or in
temperately. but thoroughly, cOnscien-
tiously. earnestly, according to care
fully matured plan and determination.

sEIBERT's CONCERT.
A Programme Filled With Music
That Will Please.


The Seibert concert this afternoon at
the Germania Turner hall is the last
but one of the series. The programme
contains a wide scope OF orchestra
music, each number distinct in charac-
ter. The overture ''Brant Won Mes
sina." by Ries, was composed for the
Saengerfest at Dusseldorf 1880, is
strictly classical in form and rich in
tone painting. The sixth Rhapsodie.
by List, is one OF the many Hunga-
rian characteristics attempted by the
different composers, but none stand
near those of List. 1.-The Awakening
of the Lion,' by Kontsky. and the i'm
mensely popular selection, Wang"
fromMorse's comic opera.fill the bill for
popular taste. The soloists include A.
Warmth and Charles Hatch. Mr.. War
muth is the leading tenor of the Con-
cordia Singing society, and quite a
favorite in musical circles for the good
qualities of his voice. Mr.. Hatch is
St. Paul boy, possessed of rich bari
tone voice. good culture, and lots of
good will to improve.

A SMALL MONTE CARLO.
Glimpse of Gambling Saloon in
New York City.

New York City.
While we were walking along Sixth
venue one evening last wee k, my
friend Budd Frost asked me if | cared
to witness a Monte Carlo on a small
scale, says Il writer in the New York
Herald.
"What do you mean?" said 1, "a
gambling den?"
Upon his noddng assent l remarked
that there was nothing strange in his
proposition. why" l said, this
whole avenue 1--WE were then near Thir-
teenth street, is lined with gambling es-
adjustments"
He then explained that this particular
game was run on different lines from
the rest. We stopped in front of low
brick building. 1t was to all intents
and purposes an express office and cigar
store combined. Come with me-" said
Budd, quietly, as we entered the place.
We walked behind the counter and
the back of tall screen. A heavy door
barred the way. There | noticed the
conventional ''peep-holc."
'It'S all right" said Budd. The door
swung quietly open and we entered.
And what transformation scene greet
ed my eyes! 1t was large room or hall
some fifty feet long. The air was thick
with tobacco smoke. On rough guess
| should estimate that at least 200 per-
sons, mostly young men, were in the
room. And, what is more, most of them
were engaged in gambling, either at
roulette, hazard or faro.
This was evidently ''cheap game" /
noticed that most of the 'chips" were
played at five cents apiece. One youn <
fellow bad several hundred in front of
him. lie had started in on 81, he said,
and wanted to win $50. l hope he sue
ceeded, but didn't wait to see.
As | left the place | met one of Capt.
Reilly's policemen in front of the door.
The nearest roulette wheel was less
than fifteen feet distant. One could al
most hear the rattle of the chips out i'll
the street. The policeman, however,
didn't appear to notice this.
1t is wonderful what lot of things
there are around New York that police
men don't notice.

IN NO MANS LAND.

Two shapes were walking on the strand
One starlit night in no mans land;
Two shapes that during mortal life
Gave hate for hate, in deadly strife.
They met Swift forth their falchfons flew
Each pinned the other through and through
Yet neither fell. Again they strove
For mastery, and madly drove
To right and left their falchions bright
Nor sound nor cry profaned the night,
Through corselet. casque, and visor, too.
AS through the air their swift blades heW;
Until. amazed. they stood aghast,
And on the sands their weapons cast,
Then laughed they both at mortal strife,
The passing dream of earthly life.
And clasping each the othor's hand,
They walked the shades OF no mans land.

NEW YORK MORTALITY.
Increase OF Deaths Credited to
Influenza.

ALBANY, N. Y, March 5. = The
monthly buletin of the state board of
health for January last has been issued.
The total number of deaths reported
was 13, 400, against 11,241 for December.
The average for January for the past
seven years has been S,97S. Of the
total number of deaths, 1926 were
under five years of age. The
greatest number of deaths were caused
by acute respiratory diseases. and the
least specified, two by smallpox, one
case of which occurred in New York
and the other in New Rochelle. The
mortality of January is greater than
that of any month previously recorded.
except that OF April 1881, which it
nearly equals. The increase Is due to
epidemic influenza, which may be
termed the third outbreak, and which
reached its height during this month.

Minneapolis. so that when Mr.. B. again
declares he will not serve. HARRIsoN will
have been left upon the shelf. The situa-
ton now is just what it was in 1858. In
May OF that year an effort was made, as
now. TO bring BLAINE forward in spite of
mis- previous declaration. when he said
that which, applied to the present case,
would forever debar tim as ar honorable
