MINNESOTA.

The Moorhead mill is being
enlarged to 500 barrels capacity.
The man found dead east of Hay
ward proved to be Christian Erick-
son, who was about fifty years old.
His head was entirely severed from
the body. A large empty bottle that
had contained alcohol was in his
pocket.
A well-to-do farmer named Vincur,
living near Fairbault on the Cedar
Lake road, was thrown backwards
out of his wagon and struck on his
head on stone pavement. He is
about 20 years old and sustained a
serious injury.
Coroner Duncan of Fergus Falls,
held an inquest Thursday upon the
body Of the unknown man found
frozen to death. A card in pocket
gave the name of Allen Campbell. A
verdict of death by exposure while
temporarily insane was rendered.
George Pierce, a fireman on the

tcor that had evidently fallen from
the heavens during the night and
buried itself in the earth. The stone
weighs about half a ton, and when
first discovered was still warm. 1t is
of peculiar formation and it's sub
stance is very hurd. No one saw it
fall, but the general impression pre-
walls that it fell from the recent
comet. An effort will be made to
have an expert geologist make an
examination of the curiosity.
But little additional information
has been obtained regarding the theft
of the s25, 900 express package sent by
the National City Bank of New York
to Messrs. Ball, Hutchings & Co.,
bankers, of Galveston, or the $40, 900
package sent by the firm of Kountze
Bros. to the Island City Savings bank
Of the same city for the account of
II. w. Runge & Co.. of Cuero, Texas.
Cashier David w. Palmer was the
only member of the National City
Bank who will talk at all. He said
that the package of S25, 900 was sent
to the express company on Friday
last in charge of three messengers
from the bank, as is the usual Gus
tom. He thought that the fact that
the $4,000 package of Krountze Bros.
which had been shipped on the same
day and train by the express company
had also been stolen, was conclusive
that the thieves were employees of the
express company.

December Forecasts.

Weather Prophet Hicks sizes up
December weather for this latitude
as follows: The month will open
clear. From Sd to 5th rain and snow,
followed by cold. Winter solstace
about the 10th, which insures hard
winter storms tor several days fol-
lowing. From Sth to 18th hard
storms will rage on the seas and sweep
over the continents, followed by a
cold wave and much harder freezing.
Prepare for it. Cold will modify
about the 18th, accompanied by rain
and snow. Active winter storms will
appear on 18th to 23d followed by rain
and thunder and lightning in the
south as a result Of the Venus equi-
not on the 2Sth. After this heavy
snow, turning to blizzard, will sweep
the country, with very cold weather
about Christmas. December will go
out cold.

The Plea of the Editor.

Ottwumwa, Iowa Democrat: The
Pennington Herald says that "editors
of democratic papers throughout the
entire country should at once
emphatically demand the postoffice in
their towns. Many man had eked
out miserable existence fighting the
losing battles of the party and taking
all the blame for defeat, and now
that a crumb is in sight he should be
allowed to pick it up unmolested.
Let a demand of this kind be made
everywhere and followed up, and in
a few years the democratic news
papers of Iowa will compare
favorably with their rivals, a thing
they do not now do because Of the
fact that in almost every town the
republican editor is postmaster. Let
every democratic editor now set
about with all the zeal with which
he fought the campaign just closed
in a campaign for his postoffice and
demand the same open support from
the several candidates which was so
freely given them, and take nothing
short Of it. This will put postoffices
where they should be and where the
salaries thereof will, in reality, "do
the most good" This done, when
republicans, in their sarcastic man
ner, inquire, ''where" you "are at,"
the gentlemanly foreman can say,
sat the postotfice, SIR"

Dearth of Garden Truck.

VegetarianS have a hard winter
before them. Investigations today
show thatcabbage, potatoes, apples,
turnips, parsnips, carrots, beets and
onions are selling now at from double
to thrice the prices of year ago, and
the chances are that the values will
be advanced several hundred per cent
before the middle of the winter. The
kitchen garden industry in the cOun-
try tributary to Chicago has been
almost complete failure this year.
Not only there. but all over the
United States and in some parts of
Canada, the same conditions prevail.
There seems to be no source whence
the deficit in the vegetable crop can
be filled except by importation from
Europe, and vegetables obtained thus
would be SO costly as to preclude
their use by persons Of moderate
means. The direct cause of the veg
etable crop failure was the backward
season last spring and the cold rains
that continued late into the summer.
