entitled municipal Reform" This
is sad news, if true, but really the
REPREsENTATIvE does not see how it
can be altered. In the meantime, the

ATTENTION is called to the speech Of

from the Mankato Review, Demo-

then read the lying assertions of the
St. Paul Globe that Mr.. Owen, on this
occasion, gave utterance to anarchistic
sentiments. The speech, as published,
was submitted to Mr.. Owen by the
REPRESENTATIVE. He said it was
substantially correct. Very likely,
viewed from the Jim Hill standpoint,
it is anarchistic. The Globe and Mr..

In 1892, which was presidential year, the
total vote for the four candida ties for gov
ernOr was lo,023 more than were cast in 1890
The Republican vote was u. 100 greater than
in 1890; the Democratic 1856; the prohibit
ton, 3,S15; while the Populist vote fell Off
1868.
This year the Populist vote is morally
certain to quite largely exceed the vote
cast in $780, while the Prohibition vote of

that year exceeded that of 1890 by over 5000.
The detc rmining factor in 1894 will be
where the votes come from to increase the
Populist and Prohibition followings
In concluding it made the following
estimate of the vote of 1894:
Allow the p rcentage of 5 per cent for the
Democratic stay-at-homes over 1902 and we
reduce that vote 4710. Add 5000 Democratic
loss to the Popnlists (Which is one-third Of
the estimated Populist gain over 1922 q nd
we have a total Of 12.770 to deduct from the
Democratic vote of 1892, reducing it to 81 go

The entertainment at the opera house Friday night for the benefit of the Epis- copal church, was the product of much hard labor on the part of the la- dies. Such unselish and heartfelt in- terest is seldom known as that evinced in this enterprise. The audience can hardly be said to have been fairly large though the gross proceeds were more than $40. Those who witnessed the productions were highly entertain ed and speak in glowing words of the several parts, respectively. which specially pleased them. Every person participating did what they could to make it d success, and they succeeded. THE TIMES hopes there will be other entertainments very so on.

The ordinary squid is graceful creature
from six inches to a loot In length with a
barrel-shaped body terminating in a
pointed tail. The head is connected to
the body by short neck and bears ten
feet or tentacles, eight Of which resem-
bic those of the octopus, while the other
two are longer and have suckers at the
ends only The eyes are large, black and
staring the mouth and bill are between
the feet, and below them is siphon
through which the squid elects water,
thus forcing itself along. The tentacles
are also used in locomotion, which is al
ways tail first.
The squid is a very harmless creature,
easily caught and killed, but when we
increase the body in length to 20 feet, the
eight tontacles to as many more, and give
the entire animal length of 80 or 80 feet,
we have giant that is simply terrific in
appearance. The writer measured one of
these big squids some years ago. 1t meas
ured about 4S feet, and its weight in
round numbers must have been a ton.
Reports had come from various quar-
ters of these gigantic creatures up TO 20
years ago, bat they were generally
doubted, and considered as fish stories "
But finally a French mah-of-war saw one

Soon after this a report came from New
foundland that was followed up by the
capture of a monster cutie fish. A fish
erman in coming into the bay of Notre
Dame saw something floating in the wa

to il. When alongside what proved to be
a squid it threw out several long arms
and seized the boat, evidently, as the men
thought, intending to 20 aboard. Thor
oughly terrified at its appearance they
pulled off, but the long arms con
tinued to fly around them and one seized
the leg of one OF the men.
They cut this arm on with an ak

and finally escaped. This report was tel
egraphed to st. Johns, and was dis
credited. A few weeks later however.

ICE CREAM FOR aoR111As.
Chiko and Johanna Revel in the
Frozen Luxury.
Fr2m the PhLladelphia Record.


Chiko and Johanna, the two giant
gorillas, which seem so nearly human,
were in great glee in their cages at the
great Barnum g. Bailey show yesterday.
Their keepers sent out for a couple of
quarts of ice cream, and, provided with
huge spoons Chiko and Johanna dipped
deep into the cans. Chikos first taste
of the cold mixture had a curious effect
He slowly swallowed a great spoonful,
growled, spat, sneezed rubbed his head
and jumped up and down like a wild
Indian stung by hornet He seemed TO
study the effects and eyed the can with
some suspicion He hesitated for some
minutes about taking another shy at the
stuff, but finally decided to try it. The
then he couldn't shovel the cream in fast
enough. When the can was wholly
empty Chiko dug hard and laboriously
into its depths. His lack of success
aroused his ire and with a scream of
chagrin he stamped upon the can, and in
trice had it torn into shreds.
Meanwhile johanna was wrestling with
her share of the frozen luxury, aud the
dense crowds of spectators gathered
about the cages were convulsed with
laughter She tabooed the spoon alto
gether, and made frantic efforts TO swal-
low the cream at one gulp This resulted
in smearing nearly her whole hairy body
with the white stuff, which melted and
trickled from her nose in little rivulets.
The more she tried to eat the worse mess
she made and the louder the crowd
shouted. 1t was a great treat for the
children. At last Johanna managed TO
break the can, and then she fairly reveled
in the luxury.

Fad parties, :" says the New Orleans
Picayune, are the very latest amusemcnts
in ultra fashionable circles, and are con-
sidered godsend dissipation for those
who live to kill time The people who
are invited to fad partly are expected
to bring some object which represents his
or her pet fad, and each must talk about
that fad, tell the reason of its existence,
and everything of interest about it. At
fad party given lately there were four
men and four women, and the sight pre-
sented was truly drOll. One man sat
gingerly holding a scarfpin, another
brandishing a Malay creese, still another
t1ourished a photograph of a famous
actress, and the fourth toye1 with a
dainty snuff box. The illustrations
were that the first had a mania
for collecting scarfpins, the sec
ond had a wonderful collection of weap-
ons, and the youth with the portrait of
the famous actress had 300 photographs
of the lady, while the man with the snuff
box took the company back to the days
of brocades and powdered wigs. The
womens fads were quite as interesting.
One exhibited a rare bit of old china, and
told amusing stories of the man
ner in which she rummaged in
dingy old shops for the teacups
which lined her drawing-rooms
while another discoursed upon fans from
the Japanese to the Louis Quinze
era and Martha Washington;
third showed her scrapbook, with
its collections of photographs and
autographs of famous people, and what
an interesting gallery it was The most
amusing fad was that OF a clever and Sc
date young lady, who, like Eugene Field,
had passion for collecting dolls. Now,

1t is the common understanding among
Americans, says the Washington Star.
that the women of China have dwarfed
feet From the time that China was
opened TO explorers, books of travel, and
especially school text books, have been
filled with descriptions of the dreadful
agony to which Chinese women were sub
jected to make their feet small. Accord
ing to these stories, and according to the
popular belief in America, the feet of
Chinese girl babies are put in congresses
until their growth has been stunted.
Travellers in China have described the
attempt of Chinese women to walk as
something very painful No one would
be shocked at Mrs Yang JUS pedestrian
style. 1t is true, the interpreter of the
legation tells me, that in the southern
provinces of China women's feet are
dwarfed. But it is only in the southern
provinces that small 1eet are considered
a mark of aristocracy.
Mrs. Yang JUS feet were never put
through the dwarfing process. Neither
are the feet of her children undergoing
that painful operation The little tots
run about the legation halls freely, and on
the day last week when 1 was there one
of them took long peep at me through
the doorway of the reception room when

direction. This little fellow was dressed

Bile feature of the Chinese cos tune.
