One of the most frequent things
related to Prof. Whittier is the story
told him by his callers Of some oc-
ulists and opticians calling on them
with cheap common spectacles, and
making a false pretense of travelling
that way to see the country, and in
search of health Or for advertising
and introducing their goods, etc, etc.
Put them down as frauds and swind-
lers. Genuine opticians do not
peddle from house to house, and such
or similar pretentions, are simply
schemes to get money from credulous
unwary people. Professor Whittier
has opened an Office at the Metropol-
itan Hotel, Morris, where he will re-
main during this week and next.
Eyes examined free. Open from 8
a. IN. to p. M.

Ed Brunell, of Traverse county,
aged Is years, went out to shoot
chickens on Tuesday of last week,
and not returning soon after a dis
charge of the gun was heard at the
house, his father went to look after
him and found him dead with the gun
clasped in his hand. The coroner held
no inquest as the shooting was evil

The village of Morris is going to
have electric lights. A three year
contract has been closed with
Duluth company to furnish ten cleo
trio lights at the low rate of $3.50 a
month. Westward moves the van of
progress. And, speaking of Morris
and her electric lights, suggests that
the way the council of that village
has of doing things, larger cities
could we'll afford to initiate. Do you
suppose the council, exercising the
power it has made this contract with
out consulting the people? No, it
did not. A mass meeting was called,
the matter was thoroughly discussed,
and, being voted entirely satisfactory
the contract was made. A Morris
councillor would as soon think of
having his official head cut. off (for
that would be his fate,) as to advocate
any other official policy. And it is
right. 1t may not be according to
advanced" ideas, but the peoples
interest are thus best subserved.-

Adamant does not crack or shrink,
rats do not gnaw through it, nor will
it harbor vermin, noxious gases, OF
germs of disease, like common plaster
because it is smooth, dense and hard,
instead of porous. It places much
less weight Oh the building than lime
plaster, and instead of being a dead
weight it contributes strength. For

Another Good-By.

We are called upon to record the
departure of another dear friend from
Morris for time. Mrs. L. E. Pearce
left to-day for her native state, Penn
sylvania, and may remain away until
next spring, unless she should get
homesick. Few ladies would be
missed from this town as much as
Mrs. P. The M. E. church will par
ticularfy miss her, as she was always
one of the brightest ornaments of the
choir. She is certainly one OF the
best teachers in the sabbath school,
and leaves a splendid class of young
ladies and gentlemen; but she left a
good substitute, in the person of Mr..
L. Thoele. She is a leader in the
Ladies Social Union of the church
that will be sadly missed. She is
also secretary of the Womans Aux
iliary to the Worlds Fair, and we
don't know what else she works in,
but we know she is an incessant
lahorer in every good work. She
leaves behind her a host of friends
whose best wishes she has for high
enjoyment while absent, and happy
return to her home with a very warm
welcome from those friends.

The Republican pow-wow, which
met in Morris on Tuesday, fizzled.
The principal characteristic candi-
dates-were conspicuous by their alb
sence; the only one who put in an ap-
pearance was John McCallum, of Big
Stone. Mr.. McCallum talks fair, and
is anxious for harmony and the good
of the party. Mr.. Setterlund feels
strong in his rock-ribbed Scandinay-
ian fastness; while Thorp and Peter
son, being the regular nominees,
think they have nothing to compro-
mise. The meeting adjourned to
convene on Sept. 5, at Wheaton.
Under the. surface there is a sub
stratum; it is feeling in Traverse
and Big Stone that Grant county
wants to run the district, and they
will fight hard to counterfeit this
tyranny. We may safely say that in
their effort at independence the
western counties will find in Stevens
a good deal of sympathy and help
when the time comes.

We had a hot fire on Monday last
near noon. The stable of S. j.
Stebbins & Co, in the rear of J. j.
Pimm's blacksmith shop, caught fire
from gasoline that was being pumped
in it. Mr.. RandalPs boy was doing
the pumping and declares that there
were no matches used. He received
a slight burn ON the cheek, and made
a narrow escape. The barn was a
total loss along with car load of
feed it contained. The fire reached a
pile of lumber i'll Wellington's yard,
but was soon extinguished after the
engine got to work; an operation that
was rather slow, as it required about
fifteen minutes to get up steam.
The building was insured for about
half it's value.

stevens County.

Stevens county wheat has suffered
this season from the hot Jaly sun,
the hail, and the wind and rain
storms to such an extent that there is
no use in people flattering themselves
that we will have fairly good crop.
We may as we'll look the matter
squarely in the face. From some of
the most practical farmers i'll the
county, we learn that, eight or nine
bushels is the average that can be ex-
pected from the acreage sown.
1t is very fortunate for this county
that we arc not so dependent ON
wheat as formerly. The county is
full of choice stock, both horses and
cattle, and the loss of crop does
not mean restitution. 1t is severe
loss to a farmer to lose half a crop
that he has labored hard for; and the
merchants will feel it quite as much
as the farmers, but the county is in
condition to stand it.

RUININ HIGH SOCIETY
Aristocratic English Ladies Ad-
dicted to the Cup.
MANY SLAVES TO oPlATEs,
Carved Chairs to Keep Diners From
Sliding Under the Table-Alcohol.
ism Among Women OF Idleness.

LONDON. Oct IA sharp and probably
salutary shock hiss been given high social
circles by q startling exposure in regard to
the prevalence Of drunkenness among
aristocratic ladies made by Lady Fred
erick Cavendish and the Duchess of Bed
ford at church social. Lady Frederick
Cavendish said she had been recently
staying at q country mansion where
roomy dining chairs are still used, the
seats of which were deeply curved to save
gentlemen from falling out after dinner,
and although heavy drinking had been
abandoned by men, the women were be-
coming inveterate tipplers. Many ladies
have recourse to ''pick-me-ups" and II a.
m. brandy and soda during the day, wine
at dinner and something hot at bedtime.
She knew young lady who could not get
through long season without taking
cordial" kept handy at tea, and
after morning concert the lady beside
had called for "white cup" deceptive
name for a champagne cup. Lady Caven-
dish protested especially against the new
fashion of young ladies, and old ones, too,
OF accompanying gentlemen to the smok-
ing room after dinner, and sharing not
only their cigars, but also spirits. She
coAA uAStiuS uioueu physician nus assured
her that many ladies living idle lives have
consulted him for nervous symptoms
which revealed q condition of alcoholism
bordering on delirium tremens, but alco-
hoi is not the only fashionable failing, as
chloral, chloridine and morphinia are
taken in secrecy In boudoirs. and were
adding to the maladies of modern life.
The Duchess of Bedford then took up
the subject. She put the blame for these
evils on the straining of nerve power
through the supposed exigent demands of
society. until the nerves required flip.
The argument for the necessity of stimu-
lation, she said, afforded but the very
slightest protection against temptation.
The real remedies were the avoidance of
mischievous forms of excitement, together
with total abstinence. The duchess MAIN
tanned that moderation" was q very
elastic term, and would not meet evils
like abstinence. 1t was serious thing,
she said, for Christian workers pledged to
fight the drinking practices of society to
reject the practice of abstinence, and she
thought it best that everybody interested
ought to avoid the banter and testing too
commonly used in reference to the great
est evil of modern life. The wives of
Archbishop Benson. Sir William Herschel,
the Dean of Rochester and others con-
tinued in similar strain. The whole
topic is deeply stirring the social elite.
