April.

The first month of spring was named
April by the Romans because, as one
of them expressed it, s'omnia aperit''-
it opens all things. It is in this month
that nature lin the temperate zone)
awakens from her winter slumber,
throws off the icy letters that have
bound her, and testifes her Joy at
meeting the returning sun, by sending
forth leaves and buds, promise of
flowers and fruits to come. And along
with the rousing of nature, man, too,
shakes off the torpor of winter, comes
forth from his Information by the coal
stove or the steam radiator, and starts
on his travels either for business or
pleasure. The first day of this month
is known far and wide as All Fools
Day, but, generally as it is thus known,
the reason for the appellation is much
in doubt. Some say this was the day
on which Noah sent out the dove from
the ark for the first time, and she re-
turned having found no rest for her
foot--''April fooled.'' Others say the
name was given the day in 1864, when
the French calendar was changed sc
that New Years Day came january
1st instead of April LIST, thus leaving
the opening day of April destitute Of
its former festivities, - fooling'' those
who expected holiday. But there
will be no "April fool'' about a journey
on the Burlington Route, and whether
you go on business or pleasure to any
principal city, before you start write
for routes and rates, to W. J. G. Ken
yon, Gen. Pass. Agt., st. Paul, MINI.

For his vote in favor of the Bland
bill Congressman McCleary receives
the communication of the Fairmont
Sentinel This is clear case Of two
good men having gone wrong. The
Bland bill means fiat money, pure and
simple, and yet a Republican congress-
man and a Republican State senator
support it.-OrtonviUe Herald-Star.
Mr.. McCleary's constituents
seem to endorse his vote. We
predict that he will be returned to
congress by handsome majority
not plurality over all competi-
tors.

Present Day British Novelists.

- - 80 L
Anna Leach contributes to Munsey's
Magazine a paper Of readable gossip
about the people who write fiction for
the British today, particularly the young
or novelists. Portraits of them are Civ
en-, too, and it must be said that some of
them are altogether good looking. Je-
rome K. Jerome and DR.. A. Conan Doyle
look like strong, splendid young ath-
letes. There is fullness of power and
Of physical aswel as intelle strength
about them which is refreshing. James
M. Barrie, Carrie of Thrums," looks
more delicate, as though he were a dys-
peptic and sat uplate at night and brood
ed over unpleasant things more than was
good for him. It is not we'll to take too
serious view Of life. i
This rising young Scotch novelist is
only 80 years old. Nearly all the sue
cessful present day British novelists are
young. Rider Haggard himself is only
35. Yet, he is rich man already, so
great has been his success. He has all
apparently that man needs for perfect
happiness, fame, money, a country house,
brilliant social standing and lovely
wife and beautiful children. Yet his
first book was a failure, and his second
one only netted him $50. But ''She'
brought him $4,000. Thomas Hardy is
the most popular novelist Of all, Miss
Leach says. He is 30 years old.
In London there is a striking coterie
Of young novelists who are all friends.
Rudyard Kipling, with his 'sPlain Tales
From the Hills" belonged to them be-
fore he migrated to America. Zangwill,
the Jew, who rose to notice with his
weird stories from the Ghetto, is one Of
the set. Another is handsome Jerome
K. Jerome, humorous journalist before
he became a novelist. He had it rough
enough, too, for years. and nobody
grudges him the money and fame the
last few years have brought him. Conan
Doyle is one Of the new set, with his elo-
quent, rhythmic English. But the Brit
ish novelist with the electric, fiery i'm
agination, after all, is, Rider Haggard.
When he was only IS, he was private
secretary to Sir Henry Butler at Natal.
He read aloud in the Dutch Beers legis-
lature the document declaring the Trans
vaal British territory. He read the proc
lamation in a ringing voice and then
sprang upon table and cried out, "God
save the queen!'' These novelists, in

AMERICAN Citizen: Mr.. Cleve-
land has allowed a great oppor-
tunity-a great party opportunity
to pass. Had he signed this
bill he would have placed the Re
publicans hopelessly in the posi-.
ton of being the enemies of silver.
His main contention, which is, in
effect, that we cannot absorb $685..
O00,OO in silver into our circula
ton without endangering the
national credit, is sheer ''rot," anc
must be taken as fairly character
izing his entire veto message.

A few days ago, Edwin H. Estes, SIS
years of ago, and resident of Mile
Laos county, made final proof at the

papers included in his proof was a dis

regiment of Maine volunteers, at the
close of the war. Upon the back Of the
discharge was written the following as

point to more extensive one. No SOL

can equal it, yet Estes wears no Cross
of the Legion of Honor-no decoration
from Emperor, King, Prince or Pot

doubt, of the fact that he did his part
in saving the life of the grandest nation

The ST. Cloud Journal Press tell how
the smash-up occurred east of Milaca
last Saturday morning: ''There was
bad wreck on the St. Cloud and Hinck-
ley branch of the Great Northern at
an early hour this morning, but fortu
nately no one was injured. The affair
was head-end collision between No.
%, an Eastern Minnesota freight, and
Conductor Jos. Smiths extra from this
city. The train on the Eastern was
coming from Superior and Smiths
train was going from here to that city.
There was an order sent from the dis
patching office here that No. % should
be held at Groundhouse that the ex-
ira might be permitted to pass. The
order was sent to Mora but it was not
delivered to the crew Of No. % and the
train proceeded past Mora and Ground
house and encountered the extra near
Tosca, ''blind" siding just beyond
Milaca. The track is straight at this
point but the two trains came together
with considerable force. No one was
hurt, the engineers and fremen saving
themselves by jumping. Both engines
were badly damaged by the collision
and the draw bars of some 20 cars
were driven in. The accident occurred
at 4:15 and a special train having or

Of N Of the most enjoyable social
events on Thanksgiving evening that
ever transpired in the history of Custer.
The X. P's have fairly won an enviable
reputation as caterers to the amusement
loving public by the faultless manage
ment of their pleasing entertainments
in the past, and in this instance their
efforts to please their patrons were
crowned with corresponding success.
The large hall was comfortably filed,
the music dispensed by the celebrated
Emo & Emrick orchestra of Lead City,
was simply i%nimitabie, the supper at
Denny's restaurant was faultless, the
management perfect, and social enjoy
ment of the highest order prevailed from
beginning to end.
The occasion will long be remembered
by the happy participants as the inniiiai
entertainment at the icy and elegant
structure in which it was held where
Joy ruled supreme. Much credit is due
to the royal Knights for the able and
satisfactory manner in which this pleas
ing affair was conducted.
