better than any state in the UDion in

Alternate Commissioner KurtZ,, and
Superintendent Hunt have filed a pro-
test because the Minnesota mines
have not received individual awards
the same as those of Michigan and
other states. The trouble SCENE to be
that Thatcher has to cut down on a

INTELLECTUAL LADY FINGERS

The reception last evening rendered
to the Christian Endeavor societies OF
Mankato by the Y. M. G. A. was a
very pleasing affair. About 235 Of the
3l5 Endeavorers were present. -
After an hour spent In conversation
the guests were ushered into the gym
nasium, where they were addressed
by President George Palmer. He
spoke of the objects for which the two
societies were organized. and called
attention to the fact that the Y. M.
G. A. reaches certain class of young
men whom the @. E. societies are I'M
able to get hold of, and showed what
great opportunities there are for the
members of the Endeavor societies to
do grand work by aiding the associ-
alton in it's efforts.
After the address the guests were
served with lady fingers and lemonade.
On biting into the cakes they were
found to contain slips of paper on
which were written part or some quo
tation or proverb, the other part b
ing enclosed in some one elSe's cake.
Of course the grand hunt which fol-
10 we'd was interesting for the whole
company began to move around asking
first one and then another to compare
slips.
The ladies' auxiliary as we'll as the
general reception committee were
provided with badges, and everyone
was tagged usual. AS the time ap'
preached for going home, Miss Soule
went to the piano and played several
familiar gospel songs, and the entire
gathering joined in singing.

FROM THE FROZEN NORTH.

A very appreciative audience was
at Schuetzen Hall, last evening to
hear Miss Olof Karer tell of the Els
komo Gland. The lecturer is tiny
woman, but the most valuable arti-
Giles come IN small parcels. She rare
ly smiled never grew vehement, and
rarely gesticulated. More than once,
when speaking of the hardships of her
country people'her eyes glistened and
her voice grew softly sympathetic.
Memory made her eloquent. Il was
born in Greenland" was the simple
sentence with which she began her
lecture. Then she told how, after
living in the terrible cold of that dark
land until she was fifteen years old,
she crossed the frozen sea on a sled
drawn by dogs to Iceland. There she
learned to speak the lcelandic Ian
guage, a tongue very dissimilaI to her
own and received the rudiments of an
education at a mission school. In her
own land there were neither preach
ers, doctors, lawyers or rulers OfIany
kind. In Iceland she found all these.
At home people never washed them
selves, and in Iceland was handed a
piece of soap. She did not know the
use of it and put it in her mouth. At
the age of twenty she went from Ice
land TO Manitoba, in British America,
end several years ago removed to Wis
consin. There she was compelled to
live in room where ice was kept until
she became acclimated. At the close of
the lecture Miss Krarer retired and
attired herself in the native Esqui-
mauX costume. 1t WAS made of a
white polar bears skin. with the fur
outside, and consisted of pantalOOns
and a tunic surmounted by peaked
cap attached to the main garment.
The little woman smiled, II look pref
ty, now," she sand, and the audience
laughed. A popularity Of her enun-
citation was the cletic tone at the
close of her sentences. The audience
was large and pleased one. -Neendh
