Mourning Raiment.

The custom is outworn it is an an
achronism in the nineteenth century.
It is un-Christian it clouds the spirit
raj siguificanc of the resurrection
with the ever present expression of
temporal loss. 1t is cruel; 1t forces
helpless and innocent people into ac-
ton which entails privation and unne-
cessary suffering. 1t is untruthful !;
it makes false outward show and
changes in sentiment. 1t is essential
ly vulgar, for it presses private affairs
upon public notice; it thrusts claims
of fashion and frivolity upon time
which most greatly moves the heights
and depths of being, and it forces its
superficial worldliness into the fiercest
throes that can ever rend human ma
ture! Why, then. do we still wear
mourning ?-North American Review.

The old time superstitious belief that
human beings should sleep with their

to be based on scientific principle.

PRACTICALLY TIED DOWN.
Weyerhaeuser Buys Timber and Will
Put in Mill i'm This
District.

The Weyerhaeuser syndicate has
practically decided upon the erection
of a mill at the head Of Lake Superior
and the probable location at Allouez
bay. says the DULUTH News-Tribune
1t is learned upon good authority
that the announcement made IN the
Superior papers that the deal was
entirely closed was premature. The
recent visit Of the Weyerhaeuser pco-
pie was not to c"pclule the negotia-
tions for the erection Of hill but
was in connection with a large TIM
Der purchase in Minnesota, near the
Mississippi. The mill is extremely
probable but not yet assured, The
Weyerhaeuser plant, if present plans
are carried, will be located in the
northwest 4 of section 30, township
40, range Il, on a point of land run
ming into Allouez bay, which is a
short distance east of the Nemadj
river. From the point just below
the Omaha bridge where the river
makes sharp curve to the north
the company will Dig q sluice-way
almost dqe east to Allouez bay.
This outlet, which will be 4 great
nvenience, will go under the Win9i
peg track. Among those said to be
ASSOCIATED with Weyerhaeuser are
Musser & Sauntry of Clinton, Iowa,
WHO have several mills, besides being
the chieI oyners in the rafting and
sorting works At West Newton, at
the mouth Of the Chippewa ri yer:
Laird g. Norton, OF Winona, VIM.
Irvine and y. Rptledge, Of Chippewa
Falls, and Lamb s. Young, of Clinton,
Iowa. It. is the intention, when ths
mill is eonstructe.l, to have a modern
plant with a capacity OF about 49,
600 900 feet per year.

Anent the charges by railroad COM
panies in the United States, that the
Canadian roads enjoy unfair advan-
tages over lines in this country.
Chauncey M. Depew, president of the
New York Central, has the following
to say:-"The American roads have
never asked that the Canadian rail-
roads be shut out or that any unfair
advantage of unreasonable restriction
shall be placed upon them. They
simply ask that the foreign roads shall
be subject to the same provisions Of
law which govern and tie the hands
of the American competitors. AS the
Canadian roads pay no taxes in the
United States and contribute nothing
to the support Of the American repub-
lie, it would seem that, so far as traffic
through the United States is concerned
they should at least be subject to
the same laws as our own railroads. i

A bill has been introduced in the
state senate providing for tie estab-
lishment of school savings banks.
The purpose Of the bill is to encourage
economy and thrifs in the school
chileren, when they are of the age
when such lessons are most easily
taught. Senator Mcmillan WHO
introduced the bill says that the
system has been in use for a number
Of years in Eastern states, and is now
in operation in number Of Western
towns, and wherever tried is met with
general favor. As one example,
Omaha is cited, where last year
4,547 of the city's $4,000 school
children patronized the banks, de-
posting s12,620.94. If the plan could
be carried out in a practical way
without entailing too much upon the
teachers, it would be an excellent
means for educating the schoo!
children in a a line as important as
that followed in the daily round Of
school work.

The legislature Of South Carolina
has passed a rather unique law for
controlling the liquor traffic. The
legislature was thought to be in favor
of prohibition but HIS instead enacted
a law by which the state itself will
60 into the liquor business. All the
present saloons are to be abolished
and the sale of liquors in club rooms
or places of amusement is forbidden
and state dispensaries are to be estab-
lished. Of these ten are to be in
Charleston three in Richland and one
each in the other counties Of the
state. A state commissioner is to
purchase the liquors, giving prefer
ence to the manufactures of the state
and then distribute to the county dis
pensaries, where it is to be sold in
packages not to be opened on the
premises.

At one time the management Of
the Worlds Fair were considering the
the matter of erecting at Chicago a
tower after the design of Eiffel tower
at the Paris exposition, but that idea
was given up. It is now stated that
ground will be broken next month for
a cylindrical tower with spiral rail-
way to the top. This tower is de-
scribed as follows: The structure will
be entirely Of steel and the tower will
be $50 feet in height over all, being
about 230 feet in diameter at the base
and rising 500 feet in straight lines,
200 feet in diameter. The spiral track
will he 40 ft.wide and will be doubled
with rail, one for the ascent and
the other for the descent Cars of
novel pattern, holding eight persons
each, will be run in trains Of FIVE.
The motive power will he electricity,
the electric conductor lying in the bed
of the track. The distance from top
to bottom, following the track, will be
about one mile, and the trip both
ways will occupy thirty minutes
There will be 800 cars in all, 400
going each way. Surrounding the
tower, fifty feet above the observatory
floor, will be arranged half dozen
powerful search lights that are ex-
pected to illuminate brilliantly the
fair grounds. The canopy of each
car will be lighted with a cluster of
six incandescent lights. The tower
itself is to be painted white from top
to bottom. The base Of the tower
which is to be made Of brick and
stone, will he divided into two floors.
The ground floor will be devoted ex-
clusively to tracks and the necessary
machinery, while fifteen feet above
will be grand floor 220 feet in d.
ameter for Il large restaurant. The
movement of the 500 cars at night is
expected to produce magnigcent
sight in the fitting of 5000 mean
descent lights, and nunberless gilded
stars and pendent lamps are intended
toaive the whole grand appearance
The cost of erecting the tower is es.
tinated at 81 ,536 700 and a fare 81
fifty cents is to he charged for as
cending it.

The Mayors Veto.

On January 2nd says the st. Cloud
journal Press, a motion was made
and passed in the city council that
! the bill of the Great Northern rail
way company for 81 ,4O1 20 be allowed.
This was to REIMBURSE the com
pany for right of way purchased
when the spur track was built into
the city.
The voucher and resolution were
sent to Mayor Bruckart to sign,
which he refused to do. The mayor
returned them accompanied by "a let
ter of considerable lcugth stating his
X asOns.
Following is q paragraph, from his
letter:
1T is an appropriation that can
not be legally made. 1t is devoting
the funds Of thls city for q purpose
not conferred upon it by law. 20
this cannot consent There is no
logical reason upon which said act
can be justified, the only reason
urged Of which can learn, is that a !
moral obligation rests upon the city
to pay this claim, for the reason that +
a prior council sought to ilemniiy
said railway company from the cost
OF proceedings in obtaining the right :
of way, and from all damages that
might he awarded in consequence
thereof. l am sure that whatever
weight this moral obligation may
have, it is insignificant t" the moral ,
obligation that rests upon qs not to
misappropriate the funds Of the city.
The former rests uron an act abso=
lutely void because it seeks to do
what the law docs not authorize;
while the latter is based upon our,
oaths as public servants. upon JUS
tice and fairness to the tax payers
and the city, and upon the law of the
land. return the motion. which is
in effect q resolution, unsigned, and
advise you that / cannot sign the
