Mayor Davidson expressed a desire
today that is probably in accord
with the ideas Of most of, our bust
ness men; and it was that some pub
lie organization be formed, such AS
the chamber of commerce was, to
be prepared to act ON matters effect
ing the city's interests. There are
frequent occasions when united
action by the business interests of
the city is desirable. but with no
permanent organization 1t Is always
q slow and difficult matter to pro-
cure prompt an effective action.
The mayor called attention to the
fact that every progressive city of
the size OF Little Falls possessed
such an organization, and the effect
of its work was Invariably for the
general good. Individual effort cam
not be as beneficial as combined
effort, and whatever is attempted
by any of our people for che city's
advancement could be greatly helped
if a. business mems organiza ton
was In condition to give it the as
sistance it might deserve.

What u Stranger Got for - Penny at m
Elevated Road Station.
at tho Congress strCSt elevated sta-
ton at evening during q rush man,
evidently stranger, came along and
halted in front of the machine which
offers stick of gum for one penny
showed into the slot. This man, says n
Chicago paper, carried an ovcrcoat, n
large valisc and an umbrella. He evil
IDENTITY figured out in his mind that it
would be good idea to take some gum
home with him. So he took out pen
ny, but held it for moment as if loath
to part with it. He knew that the
penny was good, it was backed by q
good government, but he appeared to
be doubtful as to the quality of the
gum.
The throng of people jostlcd him and
the train gong was sounded. Carefully
he selected Il slot, and still more care
fully did he insert the coin into the
small opening. 1t went about three
fourths of tho way in and stuck. He
grabbed hold of the machine and shook
1T. The penny remained stuck fast.
Lie put down his luggage, his coat and
umbrella, took out new knife, opened
n hawk blade and with 1t strovc to re-
cover his money.
The people ran against him, sworc ut
him, almost knocked him down. He
broke the blade of his knife, and just
then man hurrying to catch train
stumbled over the valise, got his foot
hung in the armhole of the overcoat,
plunged forward, kicked the valise
open and smashed bottle of horse
linimcnt.
The man dropped his knife and ran
after his valise, and when he gathered
up the fragments of his baggage and
his torn coat he returned to the slot
machine to find that some one had
stolen his knife. But he didn't swear.
He simply said: "And they call this
civilization"

DOG AND COYOTE.

Tho Hunted Wolf Mt Last Turns Upon
the Hounds.
There were three of us in n wagon
driving from Springdale, on the rail
road, to Hunters Hot Springs, says the
Northwest Magazine. We had forded
the slough that during the season of
high water in the Yellowstone cut off
the approaches to the bridge-the water
filling the wagon box and taking the
horses almost off their feet ut times in
the swirl of the current. One Of the
dogs from the hotel joined us on terra
firma-a mild-faced yellow cur with no
fighting qualities. He was trotting
along on the road few rods ahead Of
the horses when there came lop-
ing across the open country big
coyote, making straight for him.
Away went the dog and after him the
wolf. The dog made stand and tool,
nip at the wolf; then the wolf ran
and the dog pursued, but as soon as
the dog had overtaken his enemy he
changed his mind about attacking him
and turned back. Now the wolf gained
courage and took up the chase, running
the yellow cur clear up to the porch of
the hotel at the springs.
The party In the team got good
deal of fun out of the novel, turn-about
hunt. Mendenhall, the landlord,
whipped up the team and we bounced
along at tremendous pace, shouting:
''go it wolf" and ''go it dog" The
landlord yelled encouragement to
Stub, the dog, but Stub had no mind
for tussle with the sharp-toothed,
long-nosed brute, and was happy to
gain the shelter of the hotel. The
coyote trottcd Off across the hills.
What things fellow will see when he
hasn't his gun with him." remarked
one of the men in the wagon.

 ingtOn Both Clever and Married.
 MT. von Thielman, who will succeed Baron yon Saurma as German embassa- dor in Washington, is not, as has been stated, bachelor, but married man, his wife having been Countess Ross MT. von Thielman is an expert upon questions involving commercial rela- tions
 As Prussian minister in Hamburg, then free hanseatic town, he greatly distinguished himself in negotiating the agreement under which that ancient city surrendered her privileges as a free port and joined the Zollverein. The new em- bassador has always been an enthusiast and intelligent traveller and is the au- thor of a number of valuable books of travel.
 In the Franco-German war he served in cavalry regiment The fact that inn mediately after the battle of Mars la Tour, in which he conducted himself with conspicuous gallantry, he wrote an account of the battle in Sansltrit upon a postal card, addressed to his old profess or in Bonn, earned for him i'll the army the sobriquet, "The Learned Hussar. !"

FIFTY CARAT DIAMOND.
It Was In Mass of Plumbago and tn
 fortunately Was Ruined.

Shipments of plumbago are frequently received at Newburg from the island of Ceylon, in which traces of gold are found Mir. TiIIinghast, the superintend- ent, said the other day that he had found diamond, about 30 carats in weight, which had been in pile of plumbago.
 Unfortunately the diamond was not found until after it had gone through a furnace which was heated to 1000 de- grees The precious stone had been cracked in pieces and filled with flaws by the intense heat. The largest piece is the size of hazelnut and so badly cracked as to be of use only as chips. The stone, Mir. Tillinghast says, was originally as large as walnut,
 The balance of the lot of plumbago in which the stone was found is being ex- amined before it goes into tho furnace. Nov York Herald.

Doctors and Undertakers Puzzled Over a
 Strange Case.
 When Mrs. Dred Dominy of East Hampton, N. Y, died recently, prepara- tions were made for an elaborate funer- al, but when the undertaken arrived and looked at the body he returned his emp- ty coffin to the wagon and refused to bury the body. He said she was alive.
 A clergyman read the funeral service. on the conclusion of which Mr. Dominy said that until convinced that his wife was dead he would keep her in the house "all summer, if necessary, he said, and he added, furthermore, that he was not afraid of dead folks.
 Undertaken Thompson said he had never in a practice of 28 years known a similar case. There were few evidences of death on the body, and tho common est indications were absent.
 MT. Thompson has had Mrs. Dominy E body placed close by steady coal fire, and on the seventh day after her SUD- posed demise she still looked unchanged and gave no signs of physical change
 Mrs William Wallace Tooker, wife of Dr. Toolxer of Sag Harbor, examined the body, and reports that when she opened Mrs. Dominy's mouth it shut to of itself, and that when the face was wrinkled up the skin would immediate ly resume it's proper position. The body is still perfectly free from rigidity.

COLLEGES IN A POOL.
The Afiiliation Plan of Dr. Harper of the
 Chicago University


 Baptist colleges and academies are preparing to come under the wing of the University of Chicago. Dr. Harper's s great educational plan of utilization is gaining favor and foothold in the north west There is 8 strong probability that as many as a dozen institutions will affiliate with the university this year, and that a thousand more students will soon be working in various places of learning for its bachelors degrees.
 The advantage in phe system is iL general economy of Adjustment i'll the various educational factors. The uniyer- sity will secure greater breadth and completeness. It will have control of all preliminary education. Repetition of courses will be avoided Students will be able to enter the university at an earlier age The standard of the acade- mics will be raised. Instructors could go from school to school. The academy and college would receive aid in books and apparatus from the university. The academy and college, being at a dis tance, would be free to develop their own peculiar spirit and life and be free from the deleterious effects of close social union.
 The system in it's perfection would be complete within itself Graduates i'll the university, who would be familiar with the unique features, would receive positions as teachers in the colleges and academies Courses of study taken in the colleges will receive credit toward a university degree just as if they were taken on the university campus.

WHY SHE WABBLES.
Mother Earth Has Been Constantly Get
 ting of Her Trolley.

ting Off Her Trolley.
 It appears from the statement of Pro- lessor John K. Rees, astronomer to Go lumbia college, New York, that the earth has been wabbling in most reck- less fashion for thousands of years, al- though it has only just now been caught ill the act and that the lines of lati- tude, which look so straight and perma- nent on the map, have been moving north and south to keep up with the ec- centricities of the disagreeable planet.
 Owing probably to the variation of weights Oh the earth s surface, due to the movement of ice and water, the earth's axis varies, and that of course causes a shifting of attitudes. It is as if nature took that big skewer, tho north pole, out of the place wherc it stands and put it in another spot 30 or 40 feet away, Then tho parallels of latitude, which go like hoops around the earth and mark the distance from the pole to the equator, have to move likewise. This has been suspected, but only now has the case against the earth been fully proved Nov York World

BOON TO MINERS.
New Law In Magnetism Discovered by
 James Houlehan.

James Houlehan.
 A new theoretical principle is involv- ed i'll all invention just patented by James Houlehan, an inventor It is that under certain circumstances gold, sill yer, copper and the rest of the nonmag- netie metals are attracted by an electro magnet Up to the present time it has been supposed that iron, nickel, cobalt, manganese and chromium, with a few of the raw metals, were alone attracted to magnet, while gold, silver, copper, lead, mercury, zinc, bismuth and few others were slightly repelled. Mir. Hou- lehan claims to have made the startling discovery that by the use Of an armature opposed to the magnet these nonmag- netic metals will be attracted instead of repelled.
 This fact was pronounced by Profess or Seeley of the patent office at Wash ington to be a new law of magnetism
 In order to get the greatest practical utility from his new discovery, MT. Hou- lehan has embodied the principle in a magnetic ore separator
 In the ordinary alluvial deposits of gold, where the pure metal is found mixed with sand, it's advantages cannot be estimated. AS no water is required to operate the machine, large fields of gold, such as those in the desert regions of California and Arizona, that have been left untouched on account of the lack of water would become highly pro- ductive. In fact, one mining engineer of note expressed himself of the belief that the new invention would revolu' tionize mining. Chicago Tribune.
