a quilt. and one of the ladies wro Il
President Cleveland for his aud Mrs.
Cieveland's name, and she said
he sent them their name.
and $40 besides. So, of course,
the first thing one OF our ladies die
was to write to Gov. Nelson for his
name. She wrote in the letter that il
was for charity purposes and people
paid five cents to get their names in
the quilt, and the ladies' thought i,
would add to the interest if he would
write his name on the enclosed square.
OF course, the lady was all eXpectant,
as she heard the governor wanted votes
again this fall. and would recognizes
the fact that the ladies all had male
relations.
The letter came in day or two. and

letter. and 10, out dropped the piece Of
cloth with the words "Knute Nelson,
Governor of Minnesota" written on II.
ana nothing else excepting a few blots.
"Well,' she said dejectedly, Il surely
thought he would send me fifty cents.'
The matter was talked of at the next
meeting and the next and the next, until
last week the wife of one of Gov. Mel.
sons stauDch support ters went to the
quitting and, CT course. she heard the
comments and the ladies' saying their
husbands should not vote for him again,
and Immediately she went and told her
husband. He came right over to the
room where the women were quilting
and said:
Here, you women, is five cents to
pay for my governors name. Now
keep still, for that is paid for"
Did you vote for him last time?"
asked one
Yes, did" he replied.
"Wlil you vote for him this fall?"
another asked.
YES. and lie will be elected. He
knew you women couldp't vote. and
would try to influence your husbands to
vote the Prohibition ticket and was noi
going tothrow five cents away on you."
and he walked away disgusted.
The ladies now hold their peace, but
lnwardly rejoice at receiving the tiys
cents.

FIRE BUGS WORK,
Two Attempts to Destroy th,
Washington Soldiers Home.

Two Attempts to Destroy the
Washington Soldiers home.
WAsHINGTON, Sept. 14.-Fire early
this morning partly destroyed the big
barn of the big National Soldiers Home.
north of this city, causing loss of
about $4,000. The fire is believed to
have been the work of incendaries. Not
long before midnight some haystacks
near the stables were discovered a5laZe,
and burned to the ground. The in
mates or the home had hardly become
quiet before another alarm was sounded,
and this time the barn, in which were
kept the horses and part of the stores of
the home, was found on fire in severa,
places. The veterans were thoroughly
alarmed and patrolled the grounds for
hours. 1t is thought that some dis
charged soldier or crazed inmate is re-
.sponsible for the fires.
Gov. Stanley, of the home, after con-
sultalloE with Gen. Schotield, offered a
reward of 500 for the arrest and con-
viction of the fire bugs. Suspicion is
said to point to two men who were re.
ceiviDg good-sized pensions and were
discharged to make room for less for
tunate soldiers.

DEBS NOT DETECTED.
SAYS CHICAGO STRIKERS
WE'RE NOT DEFEATED.
Their Fight Has Advanced the
Cause of Labor Fifty Years
Speech to Firemen.

HARRISBURG. Sept. 14.-One Of the
largest and most intelligent audiences
that has ever gathered in the opera
house assembled here tonight to hear
Eugene V. Debs discourse for two
honrs on the cause of the great sympa-
thetic strike. Debs said he was opposed
to strikes, but they are the only weap-
onS which labor has to defend itself
against the encroachments of capital.
He claimed that the Pullman employees
were unjustly treated by the company,
and that he admired them for striking.
Ii he had been an employe, he would
have struck regardless of consequences.
Debs contended that the sympathy
strike was forced by the general
managers association organized to
make the fight against the Pullman
company. He had no more to do with
ordering the strike than if he had not
cen in the city. 1t was ordered by til
unanimous action of $50 delegates to
the American Railway union conven-
ton, after all the subordinate lodges
had been consulted. The strike
was won five days after it was
inaugurated, and the injunction was
issued against the leaders, and they
were enjoined from directing their
forces. He advocated unilication Of all
branches of labor, and claimed that class
brotherhood had never won successful
strikes themselves. The Chicago strike
was not defeated, because it had adj
vanced the cause of labor fifty years.
Il believe in4law and order," he said,
"and am not disciple of the red flag
of anarchy"
Attorney General Olney was a cor
poration lawyer, ne claimed, and ought
to be impeached for his recent decision
on the interstate commerce laws. Both
political parties ought TO be wiped out
of existence, and he advocated the cleo
ton OF federal jucges and United States
senators by direct vote of the people.
lie said he may have lost the respect of
a great many men, but he has kept his
own.

An Important Clue in the Lena

DULUTH, Mimi, Sept. 14.-An impor-
tant clue in the Oatka Beach murder
mystery, connecting Austin with the

Austin and Lena Olson. Aug. 20 was
the date of the murder. Austin and
wife had no baggage with them, though
Lena Olson left Minneapolis with two
trunks i'll her possession, and on that
evening, evidently after he had killed

FREE SALT FOR FISHERIES.
Important Decision by CARLISLE on
Br0NiSinnS of the Nexu Tariff

WASHINGTON. Sept. IA Secretary
Carlisle, in answer to letter from
Francis D. Moulton & Co., of New
York, made an important decision in
reference to salt imported for the fish,
cries. Moulton & Co. asked whether
salt imported for the fisheries was still
free of duty as under the Mckinley act.
The secretary, after citing the section
of the act of 1890, providing for the free
importation in bond of salt used in cur
ing fish taken by vessels licensed to
engage in fisheries and curing fish on
the shores of the navigable waters of
the United States, and also for the re-
fund of duty to exporters of meats cured
with imported salt, says:
"While this language Is omitted in
the present law, it does not appear to
be inconsistent with the provisions
thereof. The department, therefore,
holds that the paragraph cited has not
been repealed and that dutiable salt in
bond may continue to be Withdrawn for
curing fish free of du.y."
