Last weeks GAZETTE was "hum-
mer." Aside from containing the
greatest political scoop" and sensa-
ton of the year; even ''scooping' the
daily papers, it contained an extended
synopsis of Supt. Races annual report,
q synopsis of Rev. Davies lecture on
India, Elder Stine's farewell and five
columns of local paragraphs concern
ing Redwood Falls and it's people, as
we'll as three columns of country cor
respondence. There was news galore
in the little monarch, and the public
appreciated it by calling for large
number Of extra copies to forward to
Eastern friends. It was good illus
tration of what the patrons may ex-
pect in the future.

Union Pacific Railroad Unable to
Pay Interest.
OMAHA, Oct. 13.-The Union Pacific
road has passed into the hands of re-
ceivers, President Clarke, Comptroller
Mink and Government Director Ander-
son being appointed. The application
was made by the executors of the Ames
estate, by the son-in-law of the late
Sidney Dillon, and by Director Atkins
as independent stockholders. The OBJ
ject was to keep intact in one system
and preserve the road at its greatest
value and anticipate possible sales
growing out of failure to meet obliga-
tions because of dull times. The pres
ent theory of management will be con-
tinued, and all officers, agents and en-
ployes retained. Mr.. Anderson, who
was appointed government director by
President Cleveland, and was member
of the Pacific roads investigating COM
mission, represents the government

Secretary Smalley, of the Minnesota

Secretary Smalley, of the Minnesota
State Democratic Association, says
that man is foolish to put his name
to document, the contents of which
are unknown to him, and that any
Democrat who does not pay in the S.,
called for by the drafts received in
this city last week, is not wanted in
the Democratic association. Smalley,
who wears Mike Doran collar, ought
to call off his single tax friend, who
secures signatures by misrepresenta-
ton, before the few Democrats in Min
nesota entirely disappear below the

A Long Strike.

PROVIDENCE, r. l., Oct. 1.-THE big
strike inaugurated by the weavers in
Olneyville bids fair to become a long
struggle between the strikers and the
millers; but it is believed now that it
will be con tinued chiefly to those al
ready out, as up to the present time the
weavers in other mills throughout
Rhode Island have refused to enter in
to the ranks of the unemployed. A big
mass meeting was held and the general
management of the strike was placed
in the hands of the chairman and secre-
tary, neither of whom are workmen.

From the Saturday Review.
Mr. W. j. Harris gives a most helpful and
interesting account of the working of the Hal
will Manor estate. This was poor land and
much of it was untouched for long periods,
being treated as Q summer run for cattle. Tho
investor, Mr.. Harris, was tempted at first
to do what at that time was generally done by
landlords, consolidate farms. pull down old
cottages, and. in fact, generally reduce the
available population and labor on the land.
Several farms fell in soon after Mr. Harris
purchase OF the estate; but he was ''converted''
by observing that where the landlord or the
farming tenant had allowed the cottagers to
cultivate the land Immediately around them
the value Of the land had been doubled
by the laborer without, indeed, any guarantee
OF permanent residence. Instead Of DESTROYING
the new landlord built and repaired, and having
farms on his hands, was enabled to cut off GER
tain fields and allot them to cottsgers. Small
farms grew up, and the larger ones were re-
duced; thus land was let that otherwise would
not have been. moorland Enclosures, for in
stance, and it was on these that the value of
the system made itself at once apparent Land
not valued at more than shillings per acre in
its rough state became, when meadowland.
worth from 80 to 80 shillinRs, and as the cot,
tages were in demand the population increased,
and farmers, knowing that labor could always
be obtained, took the large farms, reduced
though they were. Wages have risen from 10
and IL shillings to - and IA shillings per week.
Mr. Harris says he made the mistake Of work.
ing his vacant farms with bailiffs thinking o.
the land was in low condition he might do it
better than tenant. But, as he says, it is the
iaborer who knows best and who succeeds, pro-
vided he has not more land than he can manage.
One OF these small holders now has fifty acres
and gives occasional employment. One secret
OF the small farmers success 10 that one man
works on his farm for no wages at all, and that
Is the farmer himself. Tha small farmers help
each other and they seldomiet a crop stand too
late or get behindhand, as is the fashion with
some misguided men, who underman their
large farms and depend on outside labor for
chronic emergencies. The harm that large
landowner can do by farming meanly is incal-
culable.

We pity the brother who has no 'sister-no

We feel sorry for the home that is not enliy-

A sisters Office is a noble and gentle one.
Her duty is to persuade to virtue to win to
wisdom ways; gentle to lead where duty calls

In Washington square, in Blocker street and

the name Of Charles Contini, who says he was
once chef Of distinction in this town. His
sole occupation now IL to sell imitation flowers
OF the kind with which he once used to decorate
his culinary works Of art
The flowers are always brilliant red, white
or yellow. They are Of q conventional shape,
intended to represent roses. The colors are
accounted for by the fact that white turnips,
carrots and beets are the only materials avail
able for flowers Of this kind. He makes the
flowers of these vegetables. sticks wooden
toothpicks in them for stalks and binds the m
up with sprigs of evergreen, stiff wire and tin
foil. He scents them with lavender water, but
the combination is not altogether agreeable to
the nose.
The making Of these things was the most I'M
important part OF his former occupation, and
n would appear to be very unhappy descent
for him. But Contini is not at ali sad He

Five years ago, he says, he was chef at the St

MIND CONVERSATION,
Mind VIII Talk to Mind or the Scientists

Mind win Talk to Mind or the Scientists
Are Mistaken.
From the London Spectator
Mr.. W. H. Preece, chief engineer and cleo
trician to the post Office, has put up q wire
mile long on the coast near Lavernock and a
shorter wire on Flatholm, q little island three
miles of in the British channel. He fitted the
latter wire with ''sounder" to receive messages
and sent message through the former from a
powerful telephone generator. That message
on the mainland was distinctly heard on the
island, though nothing connected the two or,
in other words, the possibility of a telephone
between places unconnected by wire was con-
clusively established.
There is possibility here of inter-planetary
communication a good deal more worthy atten-
ton than any scheme for making gigantic cleo
trio flashes. We do not know if We can commu-
nicate by telephone through the ether to New
York or Melbourne, with or without cables but
We do know that ii We canno. the fault is in our
generators and saunders and not in any pro-
hibitory natural law.
Will our habitual readers bear with us for a
moment as We wander into another, and, as
many of them will think, q super-sensual
region? The thought in a mans brain which
causes him to advance his foot must move
something In doing 1t, or how could 1t be
lance? II it moves q physical something, in
ternal to the body, why should it not move also
something external, n wave. as we all agree to
call it, which on another mind prepared to re-
ceive lifted with a sounder, in fact-wil
make an impact having all the effect in the
conveyance Of suggestion, or even Of facts Of
the audibility of words?
Why, in fact, if one wire can talk to another
without connection. save through ether. should
not mind talk to mind without any wire at all?
None of US understand accurately, or even as
yet approximately, what the conditions are: but
many Of us know for certain that they have
occasionally, and by what we call accident,
been present to particular individuals, and
that, when present, the communication is COM
pleted without cables. and mind speaks to mind
independently Of any machinery not existing
within itself.
Why, In the name Of science, is that more of
a miracle, that is. an occurrence prohibited by
immutable law, than the transmission of Mr.
Preeces message from Lavernock to Flatholm?

A Hearing the Bill by the Commits
sioners Next SATURDAY..

A Hearing the Bill by the Commits
sioners Next Saturday.
The Commissioners today received from Con-
gress copy of the bill to extend North Capitol
street, with the request that they report upon
the matter at an early day.
North Capitol street is already extended from
the boundary to street and from Adams
street to the Soldiers Home. The intervening
tracts. the Prospect Hill cemetery and the Bar
bour tract, remain intact, and the representa-
tives of these two pieces of ground have always
seriously objected to the extension of the street
through their property.
On the 26th of February last the Commits
sioners forwarded to Congress. with their ap-
proval and part Of their report the result of
the investigation Of the matter bv Capt. Rossell.
In that report ii stated that to open this
street to its full width would require the con-
demnation of 254.1 square feet. OF this
127 400 square feet belongs to the Barbour
property, and 126.7S9 square feet to the Pros
pect Hill cemetery. Capt. Rossell said that he
believed jury Of condemnation would proba-
bly, award for this land 80 cents per square foot
making the cost Of the land upon this street
so, 256.67. The cost of grading and regulating
the street under the supposition that the grad
ing shall be eighty feet wide. he estimated at
$63. 2S6.67 While he said he was of the opinion
that this should be done. as extending one OF
the principal streets of the city and forming a
desirable route to the Soldiers Home Park, vet
he did not rhnk that the amount of money
above estimated should be expended for the
condemnation of the right of way. which right
of way, he believed, would before long have to
be given.
The Commissioners have decided to have
hearing on the bill next Saturday at noon, at
which time those interested will have a chance
to be heard As the present bill appropriates
$4,000 to do the work it is believed the Com
missioners will favorably report it.

Weary Shop Girls mad vertentIy Destroy the

Weary Shop Girls mad vertently Destroy the
Toys of a Fakir.
From the New York World
You who grow weary with shop-so tied that
the very suggestion brings additional sense
OF toil-can probably sympathize with the
90, 600 employees in this great city who are now
recovering from their arduous labor Of extend
ing the general holiday happiness. Thousands
OF young girls were worked from ten to fifteen
hours day for two weeks. Most Of them got
no extra pay for this service and had to buy
their own lunches down town out Of their
meager salaries every day. Those who served
in toy stores and candy stores were worked
nearly to death.
remember that cold night of Christmas eve.
about the hour when these girls began to be re-
lieved, standing in the shelter Of a doorway on
14th street. solitary fakir had opened up his
game and wanted to who would buy on
such night, for the wind cut like a knife He
took out jumping rabbit, wound it up and set
it going on the walk. Then he brought forth a
big mechanical fly with shining wings and
ciockwork in its stomach, and wound that up
and permitted 1t to run around after the rab
bit
Hundreds Of people were passing to and fro,
but not one paused to so much as look at the
jumping rabbit or the circling fly. Once in a
while somebody would suddenly shy out of the
way or hop over the toys, but that was all. The
patient fakir started the rabbit and the fy off
time and again, without any other results than
being cursed by half frozen men who had to
jump over them.
81 guess they amt goin' to be any children
out tonight" he finally said as he wound up the
fly again and picked up the rabbit that had
been BOWED over by the wind
At that moment along came a bevy of the
shop girls, just released from duty. They were
muffled to the and all talking at once.
The inside girl trod squarely on the mechanical
fly and smashed it to smthereens, while the
trailing skirt of the other girl swept the Jump
ing rabbit on the longest jump he ever took in
his life.
"Drat the thing!' exclaimed the first girl.
just saving herself from going down.
"How l hate toys!' said the other girl.
: $50 do L. said her two companions in a
breath. And they sailed away before the biting
wind
The poor fakir looked murder for one mo-
ment, then. without even a glance at the un-
fortunate fly or look in the direction Of the
lost rabbit, he muttered a string of artistic
oaths yard long, picked up his basket and fed
into the night.
