Mr.. Jaynsen is now settled in
his own home and, Of course, is
happy.
Mr.. Ennen moved last week to
Illinois. He says he has had
enough Of Minnesota for him.
Fine weather for this time Of
the year. Cornis about all out,
and farmers are about ready for
winter.
Charlie Fried had a sale last
Tuesday and sold his surplus
stock, and for the present will stay
with Sam Anderson. u
a. N. Scott Of Adrian has just
finished well for Mr.. Hendy.
He went l65 feet deep and there
is now l45 feet Of water. Mr..
Scott is man that understands
his business, has a good outfit to
work with, and is a good fellow to
have around. Those in need Of
water can not do better than to en-.
gage him.
One eve last week almost the
entire neighborhood suddenly ap-
peared at the residence of Mr. and.
Mrs. Joseph Hendy and establish
ed themselves in their cosy home.
To say that they were surprised
would hardly express their looks.
Amusement was written on their
faces as load after load drove up,
until over Is Of their friends were
present. If they had any thought
Of resisting, the numbers must
have silenced them. Their sur
prise was still greater when Mrs.
John Vail in neat little speech,
presented them with a beautiful
rocking chair and 4 hanging lamp,
is q token of regard iron their
many friends. a bonntiful feast
was then prepared, after which
games were played and every one
seemed to enjoy themselves till the
small hours Of the morning, when
each seemed to remember they
had homes Of their own, and in
short time the household was left
in quiet.

So Reports the Board of Health
fter Careful Analysis.

From Saturdays Daily, j8 g N s!s
Last September to make sure that
the water used BY the city through.
its pipes we the Board Of Health Of
this city sent a specimen of water
from West Okabena Lake and from
the city mains to the University OF
Minnesota under, the direction OF the.
Secretary Of the State Board Of
Health for complete analysis both
microscopic and chemical and the
results Of the analysis are EN-,
bodied in the follow report by this
board, viz: The water Of West Oka775
bena Lake contains nothing OF a
#deleterious nature in the shape OF
foreign matter, and is entirely free Of
all disease breeding Bacteria. The
Secretary Of the State Board Of
Health, summing it all up by saying
that ''if filtered it is a free (pure)
hard water" being just hard and
containing but thirteen grains OF
alkaline matter to the gallon.
The analysis of the water taken
from the city mains, shows the same
character generally, the amount Of
vegetable matter etc. being less
than that Of the lake propefsand but
twelve grains Of alkaline matter to
the gallon, thus showing that both
waters are almost perfectly pure and
but slightly hard. .8.
The complete chemical analysis
and report is on file in the office Of

Visit Of General Booth.

The visit to this country Of General
Booth, the head and founder Of the
Salvation army, has called forth not
a little comment from the press, both
secular and religious. The time has
been when General Booth and his
followers were the butt Of ridicnle;
some people spoke Of them with
sort Of pitying smile, others openly
scoffed; but the good they have done.
has been SO marked as to silence the
tongue of.the overwise critic and the
jeering scoffer. Il
The Salvation Army has undertak
en- work Of benevolence in a field
that heretofore has been sadly ne
elected, and which many seemed to
look upon as almost hopeless. We
have raised thousands of dollars
to send missionaries to the far off
heather, while the heathen at our
own doors have been overlooked, or
spurned from us with contempt. The
Salvationists have devoted themsel-
yes to the uplifting of those who
have sunk to about as low a depth as
humanity can reach. They have sue
ceeded in making good citizens Of
those who before were a menace to
good government and the peace Of
society. :.s
But their methods" you say, ''are
SO outlandish." Perhaps SO, but the
people they labor among are outland-
ish too. AS General Booth said at
Minneapolis, ';We use such methods
as will attract the attention OF. the
people we labor among That is
lust what common sense would teach
us to do. If they can succeed in
making industrious, self-respecting
and self-supporting men and women
out Of the denizens Of the slums, we
care but, little about their methods.
Their methods seem to suit the peo-s
Ole they ttryiin benefit and #
SO, they show practical wisdom N.
using them.
It does not follow that because
General Booth and his we'll organized
army are doing noble work, that we
should turn Salyationists. Most of
us are not fitted for such work. To
put it in common parlance. we are
not built that way. Every one has
his place in life; the Salvationist has
his place, we have ours; he is doing
his work grandly, let lis see to it that
we do ours as we'll. The methods
and the talks of the Salvationists
would be but i'll suited to the cultiva-
ted congregations in some of our city
churches, and, on the other hand, the
quiet decorum and the learned dis
courses which characterize our fash
ionable churches, would have no
charms for the semi barbarian who is
everywhere regarded as an outcast
from good society. Every one who
does his full duty to the race, must
exert himself in some way to try to
leave the world better than he found
it. In this great work let each one,
as far as possible, work in the capaci-
ty for which nature has fitted him,
not throwing the hindrances in the
way of those who may work
differently from himself.
We often meet ..rrith men who will
do good service if allowed to work in
their own way, but who can do moth
ing if put in strait jacket. If each
one were to fill his place in life
worthily, there would be but little to
complain Of, even in this socalled
ssvale of tears.
s.Act we'll your part. 'tis there the
honor lies. ROBERT SHORE.

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications as they cannot
reach the deased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inhamed condition of the mucous,
lining of the Enstachian Tube. When
this tube is infiamed you have rum
bling sound Of imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever nine
cases out Of ten are caused by catarrh;
which is nothing but an intlamed
condition Of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollar
for any case of deafness (cause by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

cal Society; Miss Alice Fletcher, president
Of the Woman's Authropological Society,
and DR.. Owen Dorsey. president of the
Washington branch Of the national society,
and Mrs. Gen. Lander.
After an hour had been spent in CONVEX
sation, DR.. Washington Matthews. United
States army, with the assistance Of a pho
nograph. reproduced several songs of the
Navahoe Indians. There were the 'Sorg
of the Pong Pot" Song of the War Gods"
ITO the Skies,'' Song of the Whirling
Sticks" and Song Of Prayer" The songs
were most successfully rendered, and were
explained by DR.. Matthews in very in
teresting manner.
Being asked II he had experienced any
difficulty In inducing the Indians to sing
into the photograph, DR.. Matthews ex-
planned that with the first man, a very in
teiligent Indian, he had no trouble, but
with others he had experienced not a little
difficulty In overcoming their fear of the
machine. One old man said he had come
expec ting to visit the home OF a white man.
but he had come TO the house OF one of
the gods.
Refreshments were served after DR.. Mat
thews had concluded, and then DR.. Frank
Gushing entertained the company with 9TH
err Navahoe songs - the Song of the
Drought God" the Song Of the Ten
Clowrs"-giving a very interesting descrip-
tlOn OF the motive OF inc songs. MISS Alice

ter a member Of the Omaha tribe, followed

tive Of the gods of peace.

SENSIBlLITY TO PAIN.
DIR. MncDOnalds Tells the Psychol.
Ogists of His Experiments.

The American Psychological Association
met at Princeton, N. j., yesterday. Prof.
Catteli Prof. T. w. Mills. Prof. Sanford.
Brother Chrysostom, and DR.. MacDon-
aid of the United States bureau of educa-
ton read papers. DR.. Macdonald pre-
scented the results of a number of experi-,
ments, showing sensbilfty to pain by pres
sure on the hands of individuals of diff
ferent classes. sexes and Municipalities.
Should these results prove TO be gener-
ally true by experiments on larger num-
bers of people, the following statements
would be probable:
The majority of people are more sensi-
tive to pain In their left hand.
Women are more sensitive to pain than
men. 1t does rot necessarily follow that
women cannot endure more pain than men.
American professional men are more sens
sitive to pain than American business mem
and also than English or German profess
sional men.
The laboring classes are much less sem
sitive to pain than the non-laboring class
es.
The women of the lower classes are much
less sensitive to pain than those of the
better classes
In general, the more developed the ner-
system, the more sensitive II Is to
pain.
While the thickness. of tissue on the hand
has some influence, it has by no means SO
much as one might suppose, priori; for
many with thin hands require much pres.
sure
