Railroad Terminal Rumors.

Gentlemen interested in the complaint of
discrimination made by the Minneapolis
Manufacturers and Jobbers' association
against the st. Paul & Duluth road say that
the road will provide better terminal facili
ties in Minneapolis and handle the business
of this city better. The story says the st
Paul q Duluth will try to secure land near
Main street northeast, extending from its
present tracks to Central avenue, and there
erect passenger and freight depots and pro-
vide terminals If that land cannot be Sc
cured the road may go out further to the
point where Central avenue crosses the track.
Secretary Sullivan. OF the Jobbers' and Man
ufacturers' association. says he has heard
that the Great Northern will erect a line of
warehouses along Main street and extend its
tracks along the river to Central avenue next
summer He suggests that the ST. Paul &
Duluth may go in with that scheme and build
a railroad center on the East side.

GROWTH OF THE USE OF
SOUND DISCS FOR DEAF
NESS.

No Question Raised or Doubt En-
tanned in Medical Circles as to
Their Efficiency.
In number of Medical Journals there
have recently appeared several interest
ing articles as to the value and practi-
cability of the Sound Discs for deafness,
invented by B. II. Wales, of Bridgeport,
Conn. From data collected by men who
may be looked upon, each as an expert
In the treatment Of diseases of the Ear,
it is learned that the Sound Discs are
applicable only to cases Of partial deaf
ness, and do not in any way take the
place of the Ear trumpet, but that in
those cases where the hearing is but
partially defective they have been very
successfully used In large variety of
cases. AS there can be no harmful
effects from their use, they are con-
sidered an important addition to the
medical profession. Aurists have been
the first to feel the beneficial results of
this invention, and in view of such facts,
they consider it part of wisdom to say
nothing to discourage their use, as to do
so would ultimately be great impedl-
ment to the progress already made to-
wards the relief of this most obstinate
affection. The public themselves are
most profoundly interested in the prog
ress and success that has already fol-
owed the use of this simple invention.

Mrs. Beekon could not be found when the

wife concluded to change her abode. She
took up her lodgings with Mrs. Thomas, a
widow, living at 1919 Third street north

they presented themselves at the county
court house. secured a marriage license and
were married. Mrs. BeekCn had evil
IDENTITY forgotten to first procure a di-
vorce from her husband, though it was
said young Thomas knew she was not free to
marry again. Beekon, after searching the
city from north to south. discovered the
whereabouts OF his wife, and commanded
her to return to him. She refused, so he
called Palrolman Morrissey to his assistance.
Four days ago. by dint of threats. it is said,
Beekon managed to get his wife to accom-
pany him to house on the East side, where
he was living. She remained with him until
Monday, when she again took wings and flew
to her Alfred. Beekon went on the warpath
again. He donned the air of the seuth, and,

The Dress 8 of Enalish women.

From Godey's for November.
Class distinctions are more decided
ly drawn In England than else W here
In Europe. but the women all dress so
near alike that there Is no way to tell
To what class u. woman belongs ex
cept by that uncertain standard of
smartness or shabbiness OF attire.
When her grace the duchess has
finished with her gown it Is sold to q
dealer and Iesppers soon again upon
the back of some one lower In the
social scale. There is one exception
TO the rule that ali women in EGG
land dress alike. There are two
classes which an observsnt person
soon learns to distinguish without
chance Of failure. These are the West
End shop girls and the barmaids in
the hotels, restaurants and railway
stations. l don't know that it is
true, put l suspect that personal ap
pearance has q good deal to do with
securing such positions, for it is very
rare to see one of these young women
who is not we'll to look upon. And
they are the best dressed women in
London. They do not have the most
expensive clothes, but they seem to
hold together better and the tout en-
semble is more harmonious. And what
Is more their boots and gloves are
trim and in order, but alas, the inevi-
table hat! Even the shop girls and
barmaids have not escaped that. The
shoulders OF English women are, 1
think, naturally broad, certainly
broader on the average than the
shoulders of A mericAn women The
habit of tight Iacing accentuates this
and makes them still broader. This
popularity is more exaggerated in the
shop girls and barmaids than In the
other classes, for those comedy young
women lace till their waists are liter
ally wasp like.

conviction, and not for any benefit or

change in the administration of af-
fairs solely because it believes 1t is 3
bad thing for the industries of the
nation. This is q free nation, how
ever, and the people have right to
determine their political policies for
themselves, as also to choose their
own political rulers. This the people
have done, and it is now in order for
the democratic party at once to reform
the tariff into free trade and repeal
the tax on state banks, make the
coinage of silver free and abrogate
the reciprocity treaties in order that
their ideas of trade and finance may
have fair trial before the people IF

THE DEMOCRATIC SCOOP.

The republican party OF this coun-
try has met It's ancient and honorable
enemy, the democracy, and the vic
tory is not to 1t by very considerable
majority. The victory is complete,
The forces of the party in power have
been routed foot, horse aud artillery.
There is no mistaking the situation.
There Is this much consolation about
it, we know that we were whipped.
There is no lingering uncertainty
about 1t; no useless prolonging OF the
agony; no cat and mouse business. 1t
has been sharp, quick and decisive
engagement. 1t is easy to lay the
blame of the defeat at the door of this
or that agency, but that avails MOTH
ing, the fact remains that we met the
enemy in the flush of our pride and
power, made the best fight that we
could and that we got numerically
whalloped. This is the bold, balds
bad, black, unwelcome fact. We were
whipped, and that is all that there is
about it. We do not relish the opera
ton, but We have sense enough 10
know what has happened tous without
having 1t beaten into us with maui.
No doubt many things have con-
spired to this result, but it is not
necessary to name more than one; We
did not have as many votes as the
other fellows. 1t came upon us like q
clap of thunder out of a clssr sky,
and now we know just how the de-
mocrscy of the country felt four years
ago. 1t may be that this defeat came
upon us in order to teach US as party
that sympathy for the repeated de-
feats of the democratic party that we
have not always felt. but we know
now how it Is ourselves. We have no
grudge against the democracy for this
thing, we intended to knock them out
and would have everlastingly lam
basted them if we could. AS it is they
got the drop on US and we see it.
The game is up for us for the next
four years, and In the mean time we
do not ask any mercy. Make it just
as hot for us as we would have made
it for you if the boot had been on the
other foot. The republican party
does not squesl. 1t takes its medi.
clue like a little man aud will be
ready for the fray in four years more.
Its present advice to the democracy
Is, make the most of the four years
that are yours, for we serve notice on
you that we are in for your scslps in
the good year 1896 Till then live in
clover and take your fill of Grover.
