SHADES OF MIGHTY
Can 1t Be, This Is All That Remains
of Democracy?

Lake Benton news: Inc news is
informed on authority which cannot be
questioned that Senator Peterson
wants the postof6ce at New Ulm. This
is position which pays $1,000 year
and hence it may be sought by many
a man. But the curious part of it is,
that Sam, as he is called. should en-
deavor to treat his Republican stom-
ach to Democratic pie. This is ex-
planned, however, by Sam himself.
He says that the Republicans repudi-
ated him last winter because he went
back on Senator Davis, and in proof
of his assertion he points to the fact
that some of his constituents sent him
notice via the Western Union Tele-
graph Co. that his name was "Pants."
This is supposed to be confirmation
strong as proof of holy writ that he
has been, like Jonah, thrown out of
the Republican boat to appease the
wrathy elements of that organization.
And being refused admission to the
ranks of those with whom he so long
affiliated, what is he going to do? Why
join the Democrats, of course. This
is what he claims has happened. But
the gentleman to whom he impaired
this information with a request for the
postoffice, says he is of the opinion that
Sam should not be allowed to walk in
the front ranks of the Democratic pro-
cession, but rather that he should sit
on the fence for while and mediate
upon his past sins while the process
sion marches by; that it is funda-
mental principle of orthodox Democ-
racy that one who has but recently
professed change Of heart and pur-
pose should for a season sit on the
probationary seat.
Now, as before said, the above in
formation comes from source which
is absolutely trustworthy and will not
be denied by anyone. There is, how
ever, one thing lacking to fill up and
round out the story. but as truth is
generally found in its rough and nat
ural state without any artistic touches,
our readers will pardon us if we sup
ply the moral which is apparently lack
ing in the story. 1t is that in this neck
O the woods, at least, the fact that a
mans name is "Pants" is not the only
requisite for admission to the front
ranks of Democracy to sing peans of
praise to Grover with a $1,000 postof-
flee thrown in; that, on the contrary,
no matter how stoutly a man may aver
that those best acquainted with him
all unite in declaring that his name is
"pants" he must still go through the
probationary period and show that he
is ready to bring forth fruits meet fol
repentance before he can be admitted
to full membership, sit at communion
table and enjoy the blessings of ,
$1,000 postofice.

Pauls Episcopal church, this city, pro-
nounced the solemn words which unit
ed Louise Sherwood Conklin, prom
inent society belle of Minneapolis, and
Charles Carroll Chollar, book-keeper
in the Citizens Bank, Redwood Falls,
and one of the leading young men of
that city, in the holy bonds of matri-
mony. The ceremony was that beauti-
full and impressive one of the Episco-
pal church, and was performed in the
presence of about fifty relatives and
immediate friends of the bride and
groom.
1t was certainly a pretty wedding,
just like the artist, in blissful dreams
of splendor, loves to portray on can
vas. The Conklin residence, on Park
avenue, three story brick building,
was ornanented and illuminated ap-
propriately for the occasion. The in
terror was gaily trimmed with holly
and natural roses, the latter filing the
rooms with fragrant perfume, and
all blending in perfect harmony with
the household arrangements. The
wedding bower was artistically formed
of natural leaves and flowers, over
which an image of Cupid looked down
and smiled.
The wedding ceremony was an
nounced for four o'clock, but like all
formal matters it was some time after
wards when the last words of the min
lister we're spoken. The bride, pref
ty and graceful blonde, of medium
stature, attired in a going-away gown
of brown broadcloth with marten trim
mings, carrying large bouquet of
English violets, tripped lightly into
the wedding parlor, and assumed her
station at the altar. She was unat-
tended. A few seconds later the groom,
SO we'll and favorably known around
Redwood Falls, alfred in regulation
afternoon wedding suit, walked in, as
sumed his place at the altar, and the
ceremony began. The VOWS we're pro-
nounced distinctly and the ceremony
passed off without the slightest inter-
ruption.
Following the ceremony came con-
CALCULATIONS, after which a delicious
wedding lunch was served. Later the
happy couple left on an evening train
for the East, intending to be gone
some time. Mr.. and Mrs. Chollar will
be at home to their friends in "Oak
Terrace" this city, on and after Feb.
LIST.
The bride is quite we'll known
around Redwood Falls, having been
introduced into Redwood society dur
ing the past year, while guest of
Mrs. H. D. Chollar. She is accom-
plished and pretty, and will be a val
liable acquisition to Redwood Falls
society. She will be sole mistress of
Coax Terrace" during the winter, as
Mrs. H. D. Chollar and Miss Bessie
intend leaving for Florida or Cali
fornia in a very short time.
The groom is known as one of the
best young rustlers in Redwood. He
has a good business, is full of enter
prise, and patriotic citizen of Red
wood Falls. To him is partly entitled
the credit of securing commercial
telegraph office in that city, and as
correspondent of the St. Paul and
Minneapolis dailies, of widely adver-
Using Redwood in those papers.

take care Of one pair OF such sleeve
hoops than to store half dozen dresses
each with permanently inflated sleeves.
The biggest sleeves are made by the
introduction OF ruffis Of very stiff Grim
oiine into the armhole, the rest OF the
sleeve having no crinoline. This rufie
can of course be taken out and pat in
with some ease, but maid is necessary
or dressing is Roiag TO be serious task,

About four yards OF lavender satin
ribbon three inches wide and four and
half yards Of white lace are required
for this fichu. The ribbon is laid in
box pleats at the back, and from there
gradually narrows until 1t is doubled at
the bust. The lace Is pleated to the
ribbon. The ichu crosses in front, as
indicated, and meets in the back near
the waist, where it is fastened with a
bow OF ribbon. A similar bow is placed
at the neck in the back. The lace
must be of sufficient width to form the
deep epaulcttes at the shoulders.

Was Flesh ana Blood, but Cared Not for
Bullets and Stones.
H1LLsBoRoUGH, ARK, March GO
There has existed quite asensation here
for the past week or more, and the SUI
perstitious OF the community have been
confirmed in their views until the
other night, when the mystery was
solved. Every night between the
hours of one and two the steeple OF the
old Methodist Chapel has been the prom
enade ground for a tall figure clad in
white floating loosely about Shouts
and showers OF stones seemingly had no
effect on the ghost, which pursued the
even tenor of its way, only pausing
every now and then TO look over into
the old graveyard below, as If meditat-
ing leap down into it's deserted grave.
At last, after having warned the
specter that he was going TO fire upon
it.. Colonel Davenport, OF this place,
did aim aud let fly at it the entire con-
tents Of his old mgsket, which he car
ried during the civil war, but when, to
the utter CONSERVATION Of the assem-
bled crowd below, this had no effect
whatever on the spectral figure, the
watchers, headed by the Colonel, fed
the scene.
While on his way from the beside Of
very i'll patient, DR.. Fern ran across a
figure answering the description Of the
phantom pursuing its way to the chapel,
with a bundle of ordinary citizens
clothes under its arm. The doctor
turned about and followed 1t to the old
chapel, where it proceeded to mount the
oelfry stairs and promenade the rickety
railing encircling the steeple. When
this airy walk was over the somnambu-
list went in, arrayed itself in its ordina-
~ attire, and after nap OF an hour or
so quietly walked home.
This was the eighteen-year-old son OF
John Brestwick, who, on being inform
ed that 1t was he who had created the
sensation that had kept the town and
community agog for over a week, ex-
pressed the greatest surprise and was
even incredulous, but on issuing forth
that evening and on being awakened
and shown his airy attire succumbed,
and allowed watch TO be set over him.

UNSUCCESSFUL ATTEMPT

OF a Pretty Girl to End Her Life With
Morphine.
COLUMBUS, OHIO. March CA mys-
ferrous attempt to commit suicide de-
veloped tonight at the Star House, a
well-known apartment hotel at Gay and
High streets.
A young girl, who claimed her name
was Miss Mamie Adams, was found in
bed in comatose condition from the ef-
fects of morphine. Restoratives were
applied and she was soon out Of danger.
She told a dozen different stories
about herself and her rash act, the most
notable Of which was that she was a
niece of Mrs Mary L. Frisbie, wealthy
widow, residing in the most aristocrat-
ic neighborhood on Broad street.
The girl is about is years old, Of
blonde type and unusually pretty. She
assigned no motive for her effort TO
shuttle of, but IL is believed that there
is man ir the case.
The girls correct name is said to be
May Frisbio. At late hour tonight
she was perfectly rational, but wanted
more morphine to carry out her at
tempt.

ANOTHER GAMBLING HE'LL.
A Scheme to Establish One Which Will
Guido Monte Carlo.

Guido Monte Carlo.
LONDON, March 20. The plan to
establish another Monte Carlo on the
continent has so far matured that q
depu.ation from the Moraco stock COM
pany is now in Luxembourg trying TO
secure the Grand Dukes approval OF
the details. Mondorf is the Luxembourg
resort upon which the company has its
eyes. If the Grand Ducal Government
will allow 1t TO build and conduct a
gambling casino at that place the COM
pany will contract TO pay all State
expenditures, and thus relieve the
inhabitants completely OF taxation. As
the Luxembourg Budget is about 9,000,-
600 francs, this offer gives a fair idea
OF the enormous profits which the com
pany expects to receive from an estab-
lishment in Mondorf. Ia Monaco the
price paid for the privilege OF conduct
ing the gambling casino is hardly half
that now offered TO the Luxembourg
Government. The reason for the APP
parent generosity of the oeputation in
negotiation with tho Grand Duke Is
that the company calculates upon
an annual income at Mondorf
of $4,000, 900 francs, against %,
600, 600 francs received above all
expenses at Monte Carlo. The Grand
Duke is agreeable to the plan, and his
subjects are more than anxious that II
be accepted, in view Of the promised re-
lief from taxation and the immense
business which the influx OF tourists
would bring to the duchy. The Eyschen
Ministry, however, is opposed to the
plan, but as general election is ct
hand, and money is being spent like
water by the Casino Company, there is
little doubt that the Ministry Will be
compelled eventually to yield or resign.

SENATOR CAMDEN AS A BRAKEMAN.

SENATOR CAMDEN AS A BRAKEMAN.
Shortly after Mr.. CAMDEN's re-elec-
ton to the U. S. Senate some CORE
spondent Of the Baltimore NeCS sent
that journal a wild goose story, alleged
to be a sketch of the Senator's early
life. 1t told of how he was a rail-
road brakeman, aud climbed upward
and onward until be had reached the
highest pinnacle Of fame, &c, sc. The
fake read nicely. and the NclcS publish
ed IL with fine display head. There
was no harm in it, more than it was
untrue from foundation TO coping, and
as such should not have been published,
OF course, all recognize that If the story
had been as stated 10 would have been
an additional feather in the Senator's
cap, but truth is truth and should pre-
vail. even 10 so unimportant matter
as this. In justice to the NeloS it is
proper 10 say that 1t made correction
Of the story last week, but large num-
Der Of the newspapers Of the State re-
produced it, when, If they had stopped
to think a moment, they would have
recognized the sensational earmarks
without trouble.
Senator CAMDEN began life as law
yer, ana was prosecuting attorney of
his county when quite young man.
His connection with railroads did not
begin until he took hold of the ClsrkS-
burg and Weston, and then it was his
money and energy that was largely in
strumental in pushing it TO a successful
finish Since that time he has become
so identified with railroad development
in his native State that the great sys-
TEN OF roads which grit her border on
the west and north, and penetrate the
interior in several directions, is known
everywhere as the Camden system,
which we hope, together with ex-Sena-
tor DAVIS system, will continue grow
ing and developing until every part Of
tbs State is in close and convenient
touch with the outer world.
