little room with scanty grace
OF drapery of ordered ease: .
White dimity and well-scrubbeo boards>
But there's hum OF laden bees
And sunshine in the quiet place,
And scent that honeysuckle hoarda
Outside the little garden giows
With sun-warmed leaves and blossoms bl.ght,
Beyond the pasture, elm, and wood
Where trail the briony and wild rose,
Where blow the blossoms OF delight
In an fnviolate solitude
Through that green land there blows an air
That coois my forehead even here
In this SAD city's riotous roar:
And from that little room hear
The echo OF a lifelong prayer,
And the worlds voice is heard no more.

DEATH OF MRS. r. f. JONES.

Mrs. r. f. Jones died at her home
on S. Broad street, at 100 Wednesday
afternoon, after an illness of about
two years. The cause of her death
was consumption, and she had been
steadily failing for some two months,
despite the most tender care and at
tendance
The deceased was born Nov. Goth,
1859. at South Bend, and her maiden
name was Mary Ellen Jones. She was
clerk in Geo. E. Brett's store for
many years. 1t will be six years ago
next February that she was united in
marriage with Mr.. Jones. She was a
member CT the Presbyterian church,
and possessed laIge circle of warm
friends who will bow with sorrow of
the death. She was a lady whose
many excellent qualities endeared her
to those who enjoyed her acquaint-
ance. The afflicted husband has the
sympathy of all in his deep loss.

UTICA, n. Y, Dec, AT Taller
vile, few miles from Gouverneur,
st. Lawrence county, some Italians,
who are working on a new railroad
there, have had floating over their
huts, the italian flag, which stirred
up the wrath of the miners there.
The miners assaulted the Italians
and demanded that they haul down
the flag and put up the American flag
in its place. The Italians declined
to do so and the miners fired on the
flag and drove the Italians into their
shanties. The flag was hauled down
and burned. The Italians then open
ed fire on the miners with shot guns
and pistols, and .they replied and
riddled the shanties with shot.
The battle lasted half an
hour, but no serious injuries resulted.
Great excitement prevails, and an
other encounter is expected. The at
tention of the Italian minister will
be called to the matter.

the Democrats had d policy in regard
to the tariff question, which, upon
coming into power, they would imme-
diately carry into effect, but it has
been revealed by the discussions since
election that they hardly know what
they do want, and, as the Professor
says, it would be a waste of money to
meet in extra session and do nothing
The responsibility for tariff legisla-
tion during the next two years, at
least, rests upon the Democratic ma
jority, and the Rerieeo cannot shake
off that responsibility onto the minor
ity. The minority have a duty to
perform, and that duty is to enter a
protest against any legislation which
they honestly believe is TO the detri-
ment of the nation. No one who is at
all acquainted with Prof. McCleary
will accuse him Of trying to shirk this
possibility He will act for what
he considers the best interests of his
constituents, and as near as possible
will represent their views, and his

views are not along the line of Dem
ocratic free trade

Tuesday afternoon on the charge Of
stealing William Wixon's horses. He
was brought back to Mankato and

tend to steal the horses. He is about
thirty years of age, has wife in this

WILL DO HIS DUTY.

The Rerieao doesn't like Prof. Nc.
Cleary's answer to the New York Her.
AIDS inquiry as to his views of an eX-
ira session. 1t affects to believe that
he is attempting to Shirk the respon-
sibility which the people of the Sec
ond district haye placed upon him.
Now nothing of the kind can honestly
be tortured from his reply. He SIM
ply stated that he believed that un-
certainty on tariff legislation would
be disastrous to the business interests
of the country. No one will dispute
this. If, as the leaders of Democracy
assert, no legislation which will harm
our industries will be enacted, then
it is manifestly certain that the IN
certainty as to the few changes that
will be made is worse than the legis-
lation, and the sooner they are made
the better, and accordingly the Pro-
fessor said, II would favor an extra
session if the Democrats are able and
willing to accomplish something sta
BILE in the way of legislation, other
wise | would regard it as an unpardon-
donable waste of public money! And
this the Revie,O calls a partisan view
OF the question, and says the. Profess
sOr is trying to Shirk the responsible
ty put upon him. Still it is an an
swer any business man would give in

THE ACTION DISMISSED.

The preliminary examination of
Peter Cook, on the charge of stealing
two horses from James Wilson, took
place today. Mr.. Wilson was the first
witness, and testified that he had
hired the horses to Cook, who was to
pay the rent in wood. They were to
60 together and get some wood on
Monday, but instead of keeping his
agreement Cook went to Madison
Lake.
Chris Meyer supported this testi-
mony and spoke of Cook borrowing s.
from E. V. Walters to buy harness
and then getting drunk.
Deputy Hanchett, of Madison Lake,
testified to arresting Cook, who had
been to Mr.. Spores, three and half
miles east of Madison Lake, and had
returned to the village and stopped at
Mr. Worrell's. The state rested here.
The defense then moved that the
case be dismissed On the ground that
no intent to steal the horses had been
proved. The court thought that
there was little evidence to show in
tent, but that it was not very strong.
He wanted the defense to proceed.
Mr.. Cook was put on the stand and
occupied the remainder of the fore
noon. He testified that he had bought
one horse of Wilson for S1S and one of
Meyer for $40, Meyer telling him that
it was his horse. He was to pay for
the horses in hauling down timber.
When he had one horse he used a
horse and wagon belonging to E. V.
Walters, but when he got the other
horse he thought that he would make
more by getting wagon and harness
of his own. He borrowed So of Mr.,
Walters to get a harness, and took
the horses to Madison Lake, expecting
to get a secondhand harness and
wagon of Mr.. Spore or Mr.. Clear, but
failed at both places. He had spent
Sunday and Monday looking for har-
ness.
A recess was taken I'M I'll ! 80 o'clock.
This afternoon Sam Worrell and
Mr.. Sharp were sworn. The state put
on some evidence in rebuttal, when
County Attorney Hughes asked that
the court dismiss the action, as there
was not sufficient proof that Cook
stole the horses. The court complied
with the request, but warned Cook
that his transaction looked somewhat
shady and that hereafter he should be
more open in his dealings.
