Tie final chapter reads thus:
Last month went to Highs and made q
bill of 1898
After noting the small amount Miss Force
writes at great length Of this bill, which seems
to have been the cause Of much back biting in
the family, especially between Miss Force and
her brother Allie for soon after she got letter
from the merchant from whom she had made
her purchase. saying:
Dear MissI beg to advise that and after this
date. as per advice of Messrs. G. II. and A. W. Force
We shall be compelled to decline charging any more
goods to their account purchased by yourself This
We regret exceedingly and trust you will understand
at is enough have borne all can bear.
May God avenge; and for every insult given me
and modification which has been given me,
heap crushing weight Of insult, modification
and suffering and physica!-upon the
heads of these scoundrels, traitors and towards,

SURE HIS SISTER Is INSANE.
Mr.. Houston Force Of st. Louis, brother of
the young woman who killed her sisters at At
lanta, has arranged to aid his Atlanta brother in
every way to defend the murderess, of whose
insanity he has no doubt. Insanity has before
made its appearance in the Force family, Ward
Force being at the present time confined in an
asylum in Missouri. having lost his reason in
1891 while on the road for the firm.

Charity Performance at the Peo.
pies TheateP

Under the auspices of the citizens re-.
lief committee the Peoples Theater
company presented the ''Ticket-of-
Leave Man" to a fair-sized audience last
night. The portrayal of this interesting
plot was especially effective by Georg
Vessels, the leading man, as Bob Bri-
erly, and Miss Alleen Crater, as Sam
Willoughby. The feature of local tai
ent added very materially to the even
ing's ertainment, whic hwas purely of
charitable nature, inaugurated for the
especial benefit of distressed families.
Among the projectors were Mayor and
Mrs. Wright, Capt. Ii. A. Castle, A. S.
Tallmadge, j. E. Campbell and James
Morrow. AT the solicitation of this COM
mittee the most accomplished of st.
Paul'S local talent presented itself in
the person of Prof. Charles l.. Carman,
whose magnificent baritone voice is only
too seldom displayed in public. He was
twice called before the house for encore.
What the audience lacked in number it
appeared to possess in sympathy for the
generous contributions in aid OF the I'M
fortunate, and when Miss Aurelia Phil
lips sang to the accompaniment Of her
accomplished sister. Grace. every au-
dItor manifested an enthusiastic delight.
Miss Phillips has a marvelously rich
cOntralto voice, the prospect for which
is far greater than may be apparent
to those untutored in the cult
ure. Miss Phillips graciously responded
to an encore. Franklyn w. Lee, in
original Rotations, is always entertain
ing, III that his genius displays itself
only IN features which originate with
him. Charley Fairchild missed his call
ing when he refused, few years ago,
to adopt the stage professionally. He is
one of the cleverest recitateurs in the
country. A. S. Willoughby's sweet
tenor voice was heard in good tone. BE
sang Calm Is the Night" with pleas
ing aud technically we'll qualified effect.
Take it all in all, the venture in the
interest of -pinched families was
a pecuniary as well as social success,
and the Peoples theater management
is to be commended for its timely
p1offer.

Fake Adyertisinp Schemes

G. S. Pearl, editor of the Anoka
Union, has "Street Talk" department,
which is always interesting. In his las
issue he filings this shot:
"Oh, most wise railroad managers!
Agreat species of sense has struck those
in st. Paul. Hereafter they will adver-
tiSe only in daily papers and the regu-
lar country weeklies. The fake pam
phlet, the chdrch fair brochure,
the business guides, the city di-
rectorieS ami the hundred and one
other things that are either ephemeral,
intermittent or the like are not in 1t.
No more will their pages be graced
with advertisements of the railroads.
Now If the business men would but fol-
low the footsteps of the railroad these
publications would die a natural death,
and would be known no more forever.
Il verify believe that there is nearly
as much money wasted in advertising In
fake publications as there is expended
in legitimate newspapers. The Older l
grow the more Pm convinced that the
only sensible way to advertise is
in newspapers, daily and weekly.
The shrewd advertiser will tell
you that he gains better results from
advertising in newspaper than in any
other way. Therefore all other forms
should be given the go-by, and the
money saved should be used by increas-
ing your patronage of reliable news
papers."k

COLLECTING EVIDENCE
In the Famous Pollard-Brecktn-
ridge Case.

CINCINNATI. Dec. 2S.- Miss Madge
Pollard. Of Pollard Breckinridge noto-
riety, is in Cincinnati tonight. Her
attorneys. Messrs. Carlisle and johnson,
are also here. Miss Pollard was
brought here incognito today by her
attorneys to collect and establish evil
9dence for the forthcoming suit against
Congressman Breckinridge; such evil
dence as was impossible for any one
but herself to secure. Certain people
had to be confronted and certain facts
had to be proven, none of which could
be effected otherwise than by her per-
sonal presence in this city. Her brother
came with her, and they are at the
same hotel lncognito. Her case
will depend chiefly ON testimony of
people in this city, since most of the
alleged offenses of Mr.. Breckenridge
occurred while she was student at the
Wesleyan female college OH Wesley
avenue, this city, over which Rev. DIR.
ID. X. Brown presided.
MIR. Brecklnridge'S son has been in
this city collecting evlnence for the de
Tense, and it is stated that Miss Pol
lara's legal representative has been
important evidence was expected
This young attorney was friend of
President Brown, and had also been a
professor in Wesleyan college, and had
thus acquired special facilities for col
fectfng evidence. 1t is stated that both
parties tried to secure his serv-
Ices and only Miss Pollard succeeded.
This attorney found his way uneXpect-
edly blocked in certain quarters, in that
some who knew about the case refused
to talk. This decided Miss Pollard's
attorneys to bring her here.
1t Is stated that Miss Pollard. under
assumed names, at different lying-iu
hospitals gave birth to three children
In this city while receiving atten
lions from the Kentucky congress-
man. One OF these places, she says,
was the founding asylum of the Black
Cap i'll Reading. She bore the name of
Wilson. Sister Agnes, of the asylum,
yesterday, when Miss Pollard visited
her, recognized her as former inmate.
The news given above was collected
by the Commercial Gazette, independent
OF these parties. Attorney Johnson
was seen by Commercial Gazette
reporter. He repealed All attempted
Interview; declined to affirm or
deny a report that he was here collect
ing evidence in the Pollard-BreckiIl-
Ridge case. He said his position was
such that he must say nothing. He
said, however, that both he and Mir.
Breckinrldge had denied that any COM
promise was contemplated.

Sanity City Council No. so Orr
ganiZed.

The organization of the SANITY City
Council No. so, Of the United CONNER
cial Travellers. Of America, was COM
pleted yesterday, and the new council
starts with twenty-one members, and
the following officers elected and
installed:
Past counsellor, l.. w. Irvine; senior
counsellor, c. w. Rice; junior counsel

The organization was completed at

Sixth and Seventh streets. yesterday
afternoon. and the installation
of officers took place in the
evening. The organization was
perfected and the installation performed
by A. j. Dowd, of Chicago, assisted by
the Zenith City council, of Duluth.
The initials Of limited Commercial
Travellers" stands also for unity,
charity and temperance" typical
of the object of the association. which
is announced to be to elevate
the moral standing of CON-
mercial travellers as a class" The
| association has also for it's object
the purpose of aiding and protecting the
| widows and educating the orphans of
| travelling men. An indemnity is pro-
vided from which each death by
accident is paid to the widow or
nearest of kin $1,000. The organization
has only one salared officer-the SUI
preme secretary, who receives $1,000 a
year. So far. in an existence of six

| $500 year.
At the close of the installation of
officers last night the travellers repaired
to the Merchants and enjoyed ban
quet, at which the strongest drink was
| cold water. The eatables were, of
| course, up to the standard of any cham
payne banquet. Mr.. G.. w. Rice pre-
sided, and Mr.. Dowd acted as toast
master.
There were no set toasts-it was ex-
pecteu ILaG every one was present
cooked and primed with the lat
est" aud would go away dis
appointed it he didn't get chance to
tell it-so what was the use of trying to
confine the jolly company to the
routine of set topics. Among
chose who spoke were Mr.. Dowd, Mr..
Irvine, Mr.. Rachelman, Mr.. Morton, of
Minneapolis; G. w. Rice, Mr.. Murray,
of the Pioneer Press; Ii. P. Hall and
others.

MAMIE R
BROTHERS.
The Amazing Success of Our
Sale of the
WHOLESALE
SILK STOCK

of the Powers Bros. Co. is with
out parallel in our experience.
1t can only be explained by the
extraordinary values which the
magnitude of our purchase en-
abled us to offer.
Those values are by no means
exhausted. Duplicate pieces of
Black Silks which it was inn
possible to crowd on the tables
the first day are placed there
as quickly as there is room.
Broken pieces of Co1ored Silks,
Fables and Fancy Plaids that
will make excellent Waists for
Spring.
The entire purchase is divid-
ed into two lots at 49c and
O9c for Silks worth three
times these prices.
