Cermanv,s Roxa, ch,,arac

All the children of the imperial fam
lily have been baptised in water from the
Jordan, according to custom long es-
tablished in the royal house of Prussia.
The empress has of late received innu-
merable requests to stand as sponsor to
the children of all classes of people in all
parts Of Germany, SO many intact that
she has found it impossible to accede to
even tithe of the applications. She
has therefore made it a rule to act as
godmother only when one or other of the
parents is personally known to her.
The empress always prepares some
kind of celebration for the birthdays of
her children. One Of these anniversaries
came along at the time Of the Bismarck
episode. The kaiser, who was playing
with the children at the little family
feast. was astonished to hear from the
eldest of his offspring this comment on
the event which had just astonished the
world: Father" piped out the crown
prince, they say that you will now tell
the people what to do all by yourself.
You will like that better, won't You, fa-
ther?" The conversation was not pro-
ionged. Warren in Ladies
Home Journal

Several t,":ins pulled in at that hour

they Gid not know it at the time. They
had not seen each other for 90 years.
They were James and Charles Monroe,

"Oh, Jim Monroer' Before james could
respond the gentleman sitting next to
him turned. and giving him n close look
said. Are YOU James Monroe:" Yes,

The two men eyed each other in silence
for several seconds: then there was an
affectionate handshake. and tears glis,

Neither of them finished his lunch, but
getting down off their stools they walked
arm in arm about the station until the

A vegetable growth in the water mains
at st. Paul has been the cause of some
trouble. The first case was discovered
by the superintendent in one of two
service pipes in single trench supply
ing a double house. A complaint was
made of bad water, which flushing failed
to improve. One of the pipes delivered
pure water, and one supplied muddy
liquid that was of no use. These facts led
to the conclusion that one of the services
was foul, and the remedy applied on.this
supposition proved effective. The boiler
Of portable engine was connected with
the faucet Of the kitchen sink from
which the muddy water came and .
steam pressure of 20 pounds forced
against the 55 pounds water pressure for
% minutes thereby driving the water
out Of the pipe.
Since that time the pipe has always
delivered clear water, and 10 similar
cases have been successfully treated in
the same manner. Great care has to be
taken that there are no leaks in the serv-
ice pipes and that none of the fittings
are open during the steaming process

An Odd Missouri Law,

Missouri law is som ctimes comical.
read few days ago that new statute
had been passed by the Missouri legisla-
ture which makes it penitentiary Of
fcnSe for husband to desert his wife
until he has lived with her for at least 10
years, ! do not know the phraseology
Of the statute, but it is plainly and sim
ply interpreted. l. it seems, by everybody
who has read il, a2i it means that wien
you marry woman in this state yea
marry her for 10 years, and whs: you
have served your 10 years you can kiss
her goodby and go.
It's sort of tontine arrangement,
suppose. The lawmakers must have
been married men with wives at hoiae
who wear the breeches or they wouldn't
have taken such a practical view of mat
rimony and set timelcclS on the mar
riage contract. They probably argue
that the men who live 10 years with some
women arc sufficiently punished for t..eir
folly. and are entitled to skip if they
have survived the ordeal. Interview i'm

The republican state judicial conven-
ton which completed it's labors at
Huron last evening, was organized by
the selection OF Hon. Robert Gamble, OF
Yankton, as temporary and permanent
chairman and Philo Hall, OF Clark
and j. L. Lockart of Milbauk, as secre-
tariee. Much political intrigue was re-
sorted to, To form combinations which
would GUST one or more OF the present
iucumbents. but all were happily broken
and the old bench consisting OF Judge
Dighton Corson, of Deadwood, Mayor
A. j. Kellam OF Chamberlain. and Hon.
John E. Bennett, OF Clark, renominated
on the first ballot. This was the very
best thing the convention could do as
these gentlemen have been tried and
found faithful. All are clean, upright
and honorable men and can be depended
upon to MAINTAIN their record as an able
and impartial bench and their reelection
is already assured by large majority.

The "check system" or in other words
the method adopted by a number OF ele-
vator companies and banks TO pay for
grain purchased of the farmers by a
system OF sight drafts and demand
notes of their own, in time of financial
striugency, has come to Il close. Mr..
Plllsbury OF Minneapolis informs the
Chicago Herald that there is no farther
any need Of it, as there is sufficient cash
with which to pay, and he then adds:
"WithouL these checks We could not
have done business had money remained
as tight as it was few weeks ago
These drafts do away with the use OF
money and keep the currency here.
When buy $4,000 bushels OF wheat the
seller doesn't demand cash; he accepts
my check. / don't see why the seller of
few hundred dollars worth should re-
fuse sight draft. am of the opinion
that the system is one which we will be
obliged to adopt generally in the future
BY it we do away with the yearly ankle

crop" Mr.. Pillsbury's theory as enun-
ciated above may be very good in prac-
tice 80 far as the elevator man is con-
cerned, but how much risk is the farmer
taking in these times His risk may be
only few hundred dollars worth, but
it is hls all and he needs it badly to pay,
perhaps, a mortgage or other debt with.
These checks are TO be issued in time OF
financial stringency or panic to keep the
money IN the banks, Mr. Pillsbury says.
But how is the farmer to know what the
checks are worth or what is at the back
OF them to hold them good. The eleva.
tor company in time Of panic may be

banks to farmers and at the same time

Lack OF Water on the strip Causing
Much sickness.
Perry, o. T.. Sept 2l.--Unless rain
soon comes to relieve the boomers now
in the Cherokee strip the flght for
homes will be turned into fight for
life The suffering they are now UNDER
going is simply torture. There are
men and women at Perry--men and
women OF refinement, too---who have
not washed their hands and faces since
last Saturday because water is selling at
% per barrel. The stuff is hardly fit
to drink, but it 10 too precious to be
used for bathing purposes. There is
heat and dust almost intolerable and
hardly enough food and drink TO keen
body and soul together. Added to
these physical ills are the worry and
annoyance of many contests over
claims, drunkenness, disorder and
crime of every description. The pict.
ure is not bright one. A very bitter
feeling has arisen against boomers'from
Guthrie and Oklahoma City. Men
from other points claim thata majority
OF them are '.sooners," and that they
gobbled up the choice claims. There
are many women in the camp, and
although they stick to their lots
piuckily. are nearly all sick and utterly
worn out. A great deal of sickness ex-
lists and there are no facilities whatever
for caring for the invalids.
