E. PINCUSHION IN LACE EMBROIDERY.
hemispherical cup, Of the right size to hold
half an orange, affixed to a flat standard,
and is a pretty and convenient addition to
the table service.
In the matter of fancy work, fashion is
unmistakably retrograding. For 10 years
past we have enjoyed the reign Of good
taste. In place Of stiff monstrosities Of en-
broidery in crude and impossible colors,
artistic adaptations Of natural forms have
been used, worked in subdued but truthful
ztints Now there is a revival Of the former
meaningless characterization, unpleasing in
both detail and general effect. Canvas
cross stitch patterns are reappearing, and it
looks very much as il old fashioned wool

sort Of thing were on its way TO the front

Monthly Fair.

The monthly fair and market day
on Saturday last demonstrated the
fact that there is more than enough
stock in the county to supply home
demand and all consumers who are
interested in the welfare and deyel-
opment Of Morrison county should
insist that our local markets handle
nothing but local beef, pork, and
other meats. These fairs give the
local buyers All opportunity TO buy
and contractfo all the meats nee
essary for their consumption the fol-
lowing month There were about
40 head ri cattle besides other stock
and poultry disposed OF by the farm
ers at this fair. And on June 80, the
next fair day, there will be a larger
amount sold and our farmers will be
better prepared as they now see that
fat stock finds ready sale.
There We're two Or three buyers
from abroad but very little Of the
class of stock they wanted was here.
They were not discouraged and
will come again. They said it was
a splendid showing for the first mar
ket day. The executive ommitteeh has
it in hand and will, keep pounding
away until the market day at Little
Falls will be known as we'll as any
market day in the state. They have
correspondence from stock and prod
uce purchasers who will attend COM
ing fairs.
The merchants of our. city pur-
chased all the produce for cash and
it was a pleasure to note the spirit
they displaye in the matter and
this went long way to make the
fair q success. $50
The farmers should see if each can
not have something to sell at the
next market and what they have at
said sale should be in the best pos
sible condition, having now =, one

fe&,ts are shown this spring. Of course the
popular bolero jacket has been applied to
tea gowns as to everything else, and since
the introduction into this country of the
genuine Japanese kimonos, with their
winged sleeves and wide sash, there seems
to be no hope of further novelties unless
indeed somebody sets the fashion Of wear
ing Turkish dress-full trousers and muslin
overdress-to the 5 o'clock tea table. As
this is a season Of spangles, the costume
could be trim med in an appropriately gilt
tering manner, and the fashion would have
the merit Of Offering an excuse, on the
ground of characteristic national custom
necessarily followed, for that blackening of
the eyelids SO frequently seen here without
any excuse at all unless i'll judged vanity
be one.
The Parisienne deals rather more fanci-
fully with the house gown than we venture
to do in spite of our many vagaries. Where
we shorten the sleeves she dispenses with
them altogether, and where we content our
selves with a slight round, pointed or
square shaping OF the neck, back and front,
she has the bodice cut away almost as much
asa ball corsage The effect is. often unde-
niably pleasing, as in the gown Of which a
sketch is given, but it ought to be seen only
by artificial light, which is in itself sort
Of cloak. The garment is composed of yell
lowish ecru satin, with lace to match. The
skirt of lace over satin falls full and
straight. A white satin ribbon crosses the
corsage above the husband is carried around
to the back, where it is tied in vatican
bow. Another ribbon surrounds the waist
and is taken up under the bust, where it
forms rosette on each side, from which
falls long end. A knot of ribbon adorns
each shoulder. Two deep lace founces
form tichu pointed back and front, veil
ing the ribbon trimming.

The Change.

It is with sincere regret that the
troops Of personal friends OF T. w.
Mann and family will learn that he
will remove to Little Falls on the
first OF June, to accept the manage
ment of the Northern Pacific station
there, exchanging places with j. W..
Ward, who takes charge of affairs
here for that company at that time.
The proposition came from Mr..
Ward, who it will be remembered is
son-in-law of Mrs. j. G. Parker, Mrs.
Ward being anxious to make her
home with her IN bother, an arrange
ment which cannot fail to- be pleas
ant for all members Of the family.
Mr.. Mann has, during four years and
more, been a resident of Sank Centre,
and during. that time has won the
respect, confidence and esteem of the
entire community, and has been a
powerful influence in behalf Of the
business of the company in whose
employ he is. In the social circle Of
the city he and his estimable wife
have been prominent, and they will
be greatly missed. AS a member OF
the male quartette club he has con-
tributed much to the success OF va
rious entertainments, and it will be
difficult to fill his place. In fact the
departure Of both Messrs. Mann and
Woodley will seriously cripple that
organization. In church work Mr..
Mann has been prominent and influ-
entail, his, influence having been a
power for good. Els successor, Mr..
Ward, is a fine gentleman, and will
prove valuable acquisition to busi-
ness and social circles, and there
turning Of his wife to her old home
will be exceedingly gratifying to. a

SILVER SEEMS VERY POPULAR.

New Fancy Articles Made of That Metal.
Partisan Lace Embroidery.
There seems to be demand for silvered
fancy articles this season. Not only are the
usual silver washed photograph frames and
puff boxes displayed, but host of smaller
trifes-little jewel baskets with openwork
edges run with ribbons, tiny pincushions
in all sorts of forms with velvet tops, calen-
dar frames and similar articles. In. ster-
ling ware the crop of souvenir SPOONS is as
large as ever, and the damaged reputation
of silver does not seem to have affected
their cost, but stickpins and mounted peck
etbooks are shown at reasonably low prices.

ly been brought out in the shape of an

QUEEN ESTHER
The Beaptifur oratorio Rem
dered ar the Opera
g House.

The oratorio Queen Esther" was
rendered at the opera house Thursday
evening under the auspices of the
M. E.church.
# 1t is the first time that an enter
tainment requiring SO much Of the
musical talent OF the city has been
! giyen,here and it is gratifying to
know that it was a success in every
particular. There were about fifty
people in the cast half Of wh,ln took
the leading roles and the others APP
peared in the choruses of Persians and
Jews. Their costumes were appro-
pirate and beautiful. The oratorio
was well rendered and reflects credit
upon those who had charge oft and
the musical talent of the city.
The oratorio is founded on circuln-.
stances related in the book Of Esther
and said to have occurred over five
hundred years before Christ when
Ahasncrus was king. The King
elevated Haman above all the
I other princes, and the people were
required to bow before him. Hannah
becomes offended because Mordecai,
the Jew, will not do him homage
and succeed in having the king
issue a decree to the effect that all
the Jews be put to death. I'm the
meantime the king has put away
his queen, Vashti, and Esther. the
cousin and adopted daughter OF
\ Mordecai, is exalted as queen. She
knows of the plou OF Hannah and
brings it to the Kings notice.
Haman is executed and Mordecai
becomes the chief prince and next in
power to the king. The order to-
exterminate the the, Jew is revoked.

Experiment and Experience.

At recent public meeting in Eng
land, Sir Benjamin Ward Richardson,
NJ. d., reviewed the position taken by
him twenty-five years ago with refer
ence to alcohol, which may be summed
up as follows:
Il can no more accept it as food than
/ can chlorofOrm, or ether,or methyal
That alcohol produces temporary ex-
element is true, but as its general act
ion is to reduce animal heat | cannot
see how it can supply animal force. l
can see clearly how it reduces animal
power, and can show a reason for
using it in order to stop physical pain,
or to stupefy mental pain but that it
gains strength, that it supplies material
for construction of tissue, or throws
force into tissue supplied by other ma
terial-must be an error as solemn as
it is wide spread. The true character
of alcohol is that it is an agreeable
temporary shrOud. To resort for force
to alcohol is, to my mind equivalent to
the act of searching for the sun in sub
terranean gloom, until all is night
"These were the words of 1869" said
the learned scientist, land now that a
quarter of century has elapsed since
they were written and spoken, stand
on the past, and without prejudice,
without Indifference, but with observa-
ton and research maintained up to the
present moment, do not see a single
reason for changing one idea or one
word. have, however, something to
add. spoke, in 1869 on experiment
without personal experience. l have
been led by what l may call personal
experiment, to confirm the past on the
present, and after twenty-five years
have come to the distinct conclusion,
unhesitatingly and undoubtedly ex-
pressed, that by abstinence l have lost
nothing, retained everything, and
gained much. Practice has sustained
theory, and experience experiment.
When l had overcome the
physiological difficulties 1 continued
for some time to apply what l had
| originally learned to the treatment of
| disease, using alcohol as at least an
exceptional remedy. Gradually it
dawned upon me that the error here
might be as great as the error relating
to health and alcohol. When the Lon
don Temperance Hospital was opened
to me l obtained field such as l had
never had before for scientific observa-
tion-with the result that 700 acute
cases have come under my care, disease
of the most varied kinds aud acutest
in character, all of which have been
treated without any recourse to alco-
hOl or to anything that may be called
a substitute for it. Recoveries from
severest diseases are as good, d,if not bet
ter, under this method, than under the
old one, and convalescence is inquest
ionably advanced. The.truth,in short,
holds good all through, that which is
best in health is best also in disease,
and if It were in the power of any one
to say, I remove from your reach alco-
hol as a incidence I should answer
There is not medicine that you can
remove from me with greater impun'
ity.'"

The Sugar Trusts Victory.

The difference between the new tar
iff bill and the Mckinley bill in regard
to sugar is thus explained The Nc
Kinley tariff provided competition by
giving bounty to cane and beet sugar.
The result was that while sugar was
cheaper than ever before the product
of cane sugar rose from 1876, 900 tons in
1890 to 235, 600 tons in 1893, and would
this year have been still larger, an ad-
dition of rs per cent, and the product
of beet-root sugar rose from $500 tons
in 1890 to $1,000 tons in 1898, and
would have made another advance this
year. The production of American
sugar will be greatly checked if not alb
solutely destroyed.
The amount of the duty levied on re-
fined over and above raw sugar, under
the Mckinley tariff was 60 cents a 100
pounds, including 10 cents on foreign
bounty sugar. Under the new law the
New York Times estimates the duty at
All cents 100 pounds. 1t is probably
more, as its amount depends on the l2t
cents 100 pounds differential duty on
refined plus the difference between 4O
per cent. on raw and 40 per cent. on
refined, equal at least to % cents 10O
pound at past prices and certain to be
higher in the future as sugar rises plus
the 10 cents a 100 pounds on refined
sugar from Germany and other couu'
tries paying bounty. In other words
the trust has nearly as high a duty as
ever; the chances are that it will be
Just as high, and in addition it has all
the other advantages mentioned.
The people will have to pay more
for their sugar, and the increased cost
to the people will be greater than the
revenue derived by the Government
while the producers will receive little
benefit and all prospect of home made
sugar ever equalling the demand is en-
tirely destroyed.
