A TRIP EAST.

The annual meeting of the Nation
al Educational Association for 1892
will be held at Saratoga Springs, New
York, .July II to Is. Saratoga has
long been known as the "Queen of
American Watering-places." lis To-
Gated in the eastern part of the EN-
pire State and enjoys a greater dis
junction than any other summer re-
sort on the American Continent. It's
resident population is about 5000, but
during the season of pleasure travel
ing, which extends from the middle
of June to the middle of September,
it's population is many times the
above figure. The name of Saratoga
from the Indian Saraghoga) signifies
1.-THE place of the behring's" which
formerly passed up the Hudson River
located at Saratoga, twenty-eight
springs, including eight spouting, all
powerfully charged with carbonic acid
gas. The medicinal properties of
these waters were known at an early
date to the Indians, as has been dem
onstrated by subsequent events.
In taking this trip east the Chicago
& Grand Trunk Railway offers you a
variety of routes that cannot fail to
be appreciated by those who desire to
avail themselves of the most attrac-
tive, varied and picturesque summer
excursions routes in undertaking the
journey.
-Four routes are offered the excur-
sionist who can select whichever one
he most desires, and return over one
of the others. These routs and rates
are given elsewhere in this issue. On
this trip if he chooses, pass through
the greatest submarine tunnel in the
world passing under the st. Clair
river at Port Huron, Mich. Or he can
select the beautiful route by the way
OF Niagara, than which grander
sight is not to be witnessed in
the world. Or the excursionlst may
select the Montreal route and take
thesteamer at Kingston passing down
the ST. Lawrence among the "Thou-
sand Islands where one is treated
with shifting panorama of the most
beautiful scenery.
A more delightful summer trip
could not be taken then is offered by
this excursion to Saratoga at this
time and those who contemplate
summer vacation should look the
matter up. Any information desired
in regard to the various routes can be
secured OF e. H. Hughes, G.. W.P. A.,

VOTING BOOTHS.

Some time ago the secretary of
state wrote to Auditor Randall and
suggested that he set day for a
meeting of the officers of the various
townships, when they should have a
chance to consider the purchase of
voting booths for use in the fall
election, in compliance with the Aus
tralian ballot law. Mr.. Randall
named yesterday as the day, and in
the afternoon the president, clerk or
other officer of most of the town
boards assembled in the county COM
missioner's room. d. f. ROsdell, of
McPhelso was elected chairman.
Three manufacturers of voting
booths were represented by agents.
w. P. Johnston, appeared for Geo. D..
Barnard & Co., of ST. Louis; r. D.,
Smeed for Brown, Treacy & Co., of
St. Paul, and r. H. Palson for Geo.
Wolroff & Co., of Faribault. These
agents had samples of their makes
present had a good opportunity to
compare the different kinds. The
law requires booth for each fifty
votes in the precinct, and this will
necessitate from three to six booths
in each township. The prices range
from 81 to S11 for each booth or apart
ment according to material, size and
form. Some are frame, others partly
galvanized iron, some have cloth cur
tains, and others are made differ
emily
Several sales were made during the
afternoon. In case booths are not
purchased they must be built by town
ships. The city was not represented
at the meeting, which was mistake.
Mankato will need a great many
booths and the committee on city
property should be looking into the
matter and posting itself upon the
most desirable kind to get

A POOR MANS CHANCE.
Trips to Expensive Sanitariums Not
Necessary.

1t is widely known fact that num-
beers of people have travelled at great
expense to the various sanitariums for
the cure Of drunkenness, and have
come away not benefited, but injured.
Some have died under the treatment,
others have become mental or
physical wrecks. But even this op-
portunity for the cure of this terrible
disease is out of the reach of the poor
man, or the man of even moderate
means, because of the heavy charges
that are made at the Sanitariums,
S75 or 500 not being an unusual sum,
and when this is paid in additional to
the charge for board, railroad fare,
ETC., how hopeless it is for the wife,
mother or sister, whose loving heart
is burdened with the care of drunk.
en- husband, brother or father, to look
at this opportunity, because of the
possible failure to cure, hopeless be-
cause of the great expense.
What great blessing and boon to
humanity has DR.. Haines given in his
wonderful discovery for the cure of
drunkenness, land which is now sold in
almost all drug stores, known as the
Golden Specific, a remedy whose
price at $500 places it within the
reach of all.
The greatest difficulty heretofore in
the cure of drunkenness has been that
drunkards do not care to be cured
This preparation is so simple and
harmless and so tasteless that it can
be given in cup of tea or coffee or
with the food without the knowledge
of the patient, and the cure be effect
ed. No necessity for protracted
stay in dreary sanitarium, away
from friends. No risk of health, loss
of mind, paralysis.

natl, Ohio, publish As page pamph-
let containing pathetic stories and in
cidents of gratitude from many

The Single Exception.


A resident of Nebraska few years since
sent his application for admission to the
bar to the circuit clerk at k, little
county seat in Missouri far from any rail
road, presumably thinking he would get
an easy examination. When the court con-
vened he was on hand the first day and q
committee appointed to examine him. He
was an uncouth specimen, endowed with
an unlimited amount of cheek" but did
not get the sort of committee for that to
qualify him for the bar. The examination
disclosed the fact that he was nonresident
the state, and failed to disclose even slight
legal learning on his part, so the commit
tee refused to recommend his admission
and his application was denied by Judge
D. He was examined out of court in
the evening and came into court the next
morning to learn the result. He stood at
the railing of the bar, hat in hand, and in
quired of the court what he had done with
his application.
Judge D. informed him that he could
not be admitted, and kindly advised him
to study longer and try for admission
where he resided. The disappointed ap-
plicant looked at the judge, cast a critical
glance over the members of the bar sit
ting inside the railing, and said, well,
jedge, from the looks of you fellers must
be the first one that ever failed to git ad-
mitted in this court y allowed tc
