The telephone company has made
grand success in their efforts to make
direct connection from Mankato to the
twin cities. Heretofore iC has been ne
.esSary to telephone to Faribault and
have the message transferred from
there to it's destination. This is 60
ing to be great convenience to our
business men or any one wishing to
converse with St. Paul or Minneapolis
parties. Every word can be heard as
distinctly or even more so than con-
versation over the wires here at home.
The company has been working under
the disadvantage of not being permit
ted to set the posts where they wish
ed in this city. and it is hoped the
matter will be settled so that the
work of setting the posts may go on
and everything gotten into working
order before winter sets in. 1t is
thought the charge for five, minutes
conversation between here and the
twin cities will be about sixty cents.

AT THE COLLEGE OF COMMERCE

The Journal of Education published
by the Mankato College of Commerce
has made it's appearance for October,
and 1880 copies have been issued. We
have clipped the following items
from the current number which will,
no doubt be of local interest, as many
of our young people have either COM
pleted or are now taking a course at
this popular institution:
Mr.. Milton Merrill, who spent some
time at the M. Q. G. during the win
ter of 81 has returned to complete the
business course.
Miss Minnie Braunlich is acting as
cashier and bookkeeper at the Model
Clothing House and is we'll liked by
the proprietorS.
Mr.. Oscar Bodeen, of Kasota, was
able at the end OF two months prac-
tice in the department OF telegraphy
TO receive % words per minute.
Miss Frederick Schoenbeck has en-
tered for the full business course. MISS
ScnuenUeCk graduated from the SGdte
Normal. class '93, and has been teach
ing the past year.
Mr.. A. L. Burnett, who attended
our night school last winter, expects
to enter for the whole business course.
Mr., Burnett will undoubtedly make a
good bookkeeper and good business
man.
Miss Frances COrp,at the expiration
of two months study in the shorthand
course, is taking actual business letters
for dictatiOn. Miss Corp promises to
make as excellent stenographer.
Mr.. S. Doty is listening to the mus
ical click of the telegraph key atMap-
pleton station. Mr.. Doty took up
both the business and telegraphy
courses and is now receiving his re-
ward for the conscientious work done
a student in the NJ. G. Q.
Mr.. Cory Goodrich who was one of
the graduates of the business course
last year, has returned and is making
good progress mastering the mysteries
of shorthand. His work in this de-
partment is characterized by the same
steady application which made his
work in the business course so success
full.
Mr.. Chas Hawkes., of Waseca, pass
ed from the counter of the College
National bank to the counter OF the
First National bank this city. He
seems to like it since he says there is
more satisfaction 10 handling genuine
gold and silver than in handling col
lege currency. He has taken the
place of several of the clerks who
have gone to the fair. Upon their re-
turn he will complete his course here.

VictOria's Throne.

The English throne, used in the cor
onat1on ceremonies of the kings and
queens of Great Britain, . is simply an
old oaken chair of curious pattern and
great antiquity. Ages Of use lit is
known to have been used in its present
capacity for more than 700 years. have
made the old frame as hard and as
tough as iron. The magic power at
tributed to the old relic lies in the
seat, which is a large, rough sand
stone. Ages before it was trimmed in
velvets and gold for the use of the
Stuarts and the Tudors it served as a
seat for the early kings of Scotland;
Tradition even asserts that it is the
identical stone upon which the patri-
arch Jacob rested his head the night
he had his wonderful dream.
