MINNEAPOLIS.
HYPNoIIzF Dis HAMMOCK.

There is a hammock in the cool shade
OF large lawn on Seventh street, not
lar from First avenue south.
The fact that there is a hammock
there is not startling. This hammock,
however, has evidently become involved
in a psychological discussion, for it is
certainly hypnoiiZed. The first warm
ing the guests of the mansion had of its
peculiar properties occurred a week
ago, and ever since lis mysterious per-
fOrmanceS have continued.
A spectator approaching the afOre-
said network readily notices that it is
not of the common breed. 1t swings
gently in the summer breeZes with
HteAke movement, but peculiar thing
about it Is its odd position. The ends
OF the mystery are as yet new and I'M
worn. while the middle says sadly. And
ii is said that late at night mysterious
whispers. signs ard tiny shriekS
emenate from between the trees where
1t hangs.
An incident happened yesterday, how
ever. of unusual character. While the
guests were attending strictly to bust
ness over the dinner table wild and
unearthly sound broke the silence, shat
tering the atmosphere into large. irregu-
lar chunks and causing Shudder of ap-
prehenSlOn to pass over the StalWart
frames of the boarders. With
blanched faces the abSorberS of
beefSteak and icewater rushed from the
house to see the AdOnis OF the residence
holding the rear portion of his head and
murmuring, Never touched me-"
Nothing more would he say, and the
guests returned to their former tasks
nystitied. They had hardly settled
themselves and bTaced properly for
their task until a piercing soprano
shrek broke on their hearing. causing
wild and terrible CONSERVATION in their
ranks.
Once more they rushed out, but there
was nothing to he Seen. The hammock,
with mysterious and unearthly move
ment, swung wildly. The brayest Of the
male members of the party moved on
the thing, and growing bolder. made
close examination. Suddenly a
young man known as ChOlly gave
wild shout of triumph at The
same time waving something in his
hand. Breathlessly the others gathered
about him. The object was a hairpin
in the last stages of the d. rs. Further
examination of the surroundings
revealed two companion hair
pins. bit of veil, secondhand
tOOth-pick and collar button. The
lawn about had also felt the influence
OF me meSmeTlSmlc power. for 1t bore
badly disshriVeled appearance. Di-
rectly beneath the sag In the mysterious
hammock was an indentatiOn of mother
earth that was positively frighttuI to
gaze upon. This was all.
And now the bOarders of the house
are sure that there will some day occur
horrible earthquake. and point out, as
unanswerable argument, the spot of
ground beneath the hammock that set
ties downward more and more as each
successive eve goes swiftly by.

STURGEON EGGS.
Their Use in the Manufacture Of
Caviar,

August Brudheimer. an agent of the
Hamburg firm of S. Schmidt IL Co.,
caviar packers, was IN Minneapolis yes
terday, returning FROM the Pacific coast,
where he has been to purchase stur-
geon eggs to oe shipped to Hamburg
and manufactured into caviar. Mr..
Brudheimer states that the bulk of the
caviar used in TINS country Is manufact-
ured III Germany from eggs produced
i'll Minnesota and the Pacific coast. OF
this large proportion comes from the
Lake of the Woods fisheries. MI Brud-
heimer says the secret of the manu-
facture of caviar is not known in this
country. The eggs are shipped over to
Europe, manufactured in bond and
shipped back here free of duty, barring
the duty on the cases III which the eggs
are packed. 1t might just as we'll be
manufactured here, he says, but for the
American prediction for q foreign
stamp on the goods.
